Speaker 1 (00:01):
D number one touch show in the Ohio Valley. This
is no bloom Daddy Experience. Your host bloom Daddy. His
goal inform, entertain and tick people off. The bloom Daddy
Experience on news Radio eleven seventy WWVA starts.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Now the bloom Daddy Experience.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
It's seven oh six on news Radio eleven seventy.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Good Monday morning to you.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
And I never, in my wildest imagination thought I would
be starting off a Monday morning by saying, congratulation Hilltopp
or football team. You gotta win one in five on
the season. I'll tell you what everything I said before
this throwing out the window. Another lifetime contract for Roger Wilie.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
He won one game.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
I mean he's probably gonna finish one in ten, but
that's good enough. At West Liberty University, another lifetime contract.
And that's good news for Roger because when he comes
back in his next life, if you believe in reincarnation,
and if he comes back as a football coach again,
he can go up to West Liberty and coach football,
win one game a year for the next forty years,

(01:11):
and have a lifetime job. So congratulations, I hear, I
hear they have a parade planned maybe later today. I
think they're gonna get all well, one truck from the
West Liberty Fire Department go down Main Street and West
Liberty celebrating this monumental milestone. And I hear right outside

(01:34):
of the Dirty Dog they may erect a Roger Wileye
statue after this win this weekend. I mean, this is
big news. Recruiting is going to go through the ceiling.
West Libs on the win table.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Baby.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
I believe the first time all year that Roger Wileye's
offense has scored more than twenty points. The only offense
more inept than West Liberty's offense would be the Cleveland Brown.
But once again, gotta give credit where credit is due.
My man, that's a big, big win. Final seconds too,
I think I didn't go look at the highlights because well,

(02:11):
I had other things to do, like go to the proctologist.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
But hey, a win is a win. OHIC is why
you laughing in there, buddy.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
I'm not really laughing. It is what it is.

Speaker 5 (02:27):
I mean, do I think Roger Wiley's tenure of West
Liberty has been too long?

Speaker 4 (02:35):
I do.

Speaker 5 (02:36):
I have a friend who had a relative, a grandson
that played for West Liberty, and the grandson said that
he was calling the plays on the sideline because the
coach didn't know what he was doing. Now how true

(02:56):
that is, I don't know, or something to that effect,
that that he was the plays were being sent in
and he was changing him or something. I can't remember
what it was, but it was just like it's just
like they didn't really there's not a whole lot of leadership.
I don't think do I think. I don't really know Roger.
You know, I hear he's a pretty nice guy. But

(03:18):
you know, every coach and Sam you know this as
well as I do. Every coach overstays there a lot
of times will overstay. They're welcome and you know, sometimes
you know, fresh ideas, fresh face, fresh whatever can rejuvenate

(03:44):
a program, whether that be at the high school level,
the college level, the junior high level, or middle school
or the you know, the pro level.

Speaker 4 (03:53):
I mean you see it all the time.

Speaker 6 (03:56):
Well yeah, I mean look at the struggles of I mean,
they're calling for Bill Belichick's head already in North Carolina, right,
I mean so, and he's like arguably the best football
coach in history.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
But he had a good run with good people.

Speaker 6 (04:14):
He did, don't get me wrong, but you know, arguably
he goes down as one of the best coaches in history,
and halfway, not even halfway into his first season in
college ball, they want him out.

Speaker 7 (04:27):
So you never know, well, and some coaches.

Speaker 6 (04:30):
And it's timing. I'm sorry, a lot of it comes
down to timing.

Speaker 5 (04:33):
Well, here's the thing. Bill Belichick was successful in the NFL.
The NFL is a lot different than college. College now
has the transfer portal, they have the ni O money.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
They have this, they have that.

Speaker 5 (04:44):
You know, it's it's it's a totally different world compared
to the NFL. In the NFL, you're dealing with egos,
you're dealing with salaries, you're dealing with free agents, you're
dealing with this and that and the other. And that's
kind of where the college escape is going. But it's
not there yet.

Speaker 6 (05:02):
Well that's what I was gonna say. You would you
would think a pro coach going into the college atmosphere
now is more relatable or along the same lines as
opposed to a pro coach going fifteen years ago. Now
with the transfer portal, that is, you know, free agency

(05:26):
equivalent in the pros. The NIL money, contracts equivalent in
the pros. So it's now more along the same lines
than it was fifteen to twenty years ago. But then
you look at college coaches that were heavily recruited in
the NFL. Nick Saban being one, and he saw no

(05:48):
success whatsoever in the NFL. Correct he went to the Dolphins.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
Was it the Dolphin?

Speaker 5 (05:53):
Yeah, here's the Dolphins. I mean, and Steve Spurrier a
good college coach. Shoot, I mean, there are some that
make the transition. Jimmy Johnson did a great job. Pete
Carroll did a pretty good job. You know, it can
be done. I mean, you see it all the time.
You see it in the NBA. I mean, Rick Patino
went from college to the Celtics, you know, and I

(06:17):
mean it was mildly successful, didn't win a championship, but.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
You know, you see it at all levels.

Speaker 5 (06:27):
College is obviously a different animal than the pros. And
you know, again going back to the West Liberty thing,
I mean, you're talking Division two football. It's not like
it's not like any Division two coach, unless they're absolutely
tearing it up, is going to go straight from Division
two to the NFL. They're going to have to go
to a Division I school to prove themselves first.

Speaker 6 (06:47):
Well, the Hilltoppers that are are at a stunning one
in five.

Speaker 4 (06:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:51):
Well, and I don't think anybody's going to the NFL
from that coaching staff.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
So well, and let's remember these are young guys too, sure,
I mean, they they only have to work with what
they have to work.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
They can go out.

Speaker 5 (07:04):
I mean it's you know, and bloom Daddy talked about
this earlier and I don't I don't know. I'm just
I'm just regurgitating what bloom Daddy said in the fact
that you know, why aren't you going to Baltimore to recruit?
Why aren't you going to Cleveland? Why aren't you going
And I don't know where a lot of the players
are from, but you know they're there. He was asking

(07:27):
those questions, why aren't you going to these bigger areas
instead of just trying to recruit quote unquote locally.

Speaker 6 (07:34):
Well, if you're comfortable and you don't feel as if
your job is at stake, I guess some people and
I'm not saying that that's what this coach is doing.

Speaker 4 (07:44):
I don't. Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (07:44):
Some people will do the bare minimum. Why go above
and beyond if there's no accountability.

Speaker 5 (07:53):
Well, and I mean it's it's a pretty well known
fact that Roger Wileye was very good friends with the
gart West and that Gary West wanted Roger in that position.
And when you have somebody donating money in the amounts
that Gary West donated, the happy you kind of keep

(08:14):
them happy.

Speaker 6 (08:15):
You keep them happy. Well, in honor of the subject,
it's National Coach's Day.

Speaker 4 (08:20):
No, no, there you have it.

Speaker 5 (08:21):
Congratulations if you're a coach out there, I mean, I
mean coaches. You know, having been a coach at several levels,
you know, coaching my kids at you know, little league
and flag football and little things like that, and then
coaching high school girls varsity basketball, you know there are.

Speaker 4 (08:42):
There are rewards.

Speaker 5 (08:44):
Even though it's you may not if your win loss
record may not show it, there are rewards when you
see the kids that you've coached, it doesn't matter what level,
you know, you see them grow up and they become successful.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
So that's that that's the reward for the coach.

Speaker 6 (09:02):
Well, and I think a lot of the times coaches
don't realize sometimes one small statement or one decision to
play a certain player or whatever it has so much
impact on that young person's life and they don't even

(09:22):
realize possibly that that one decision or that one off
the cuff statement hits a young person in a way
that sticks with them into adulthood. So coaches are a
huge part of growing up and they have a huge impact.
So despite the conversation about West Liberty, it is National

(09:42):
Coach's Day, so you know, thank your coach. Thank your coach.
You know, a lot of them volunteer their time to
do a lot of it, so a lot of the time, effort, stress,
dealing with parents. Oh god, I couldn't imagine. It's seven
sixteen listening to the Bloom Daddy Experience.

Speaker 7 (10:01):
Coming up.

Speaker 6 (10:02):
We got more. I wasn't expecting it, but we've got more.
We've got another pair of tickets to Resurrection Island Tattoo
Convention starting this Friday. So we have another pair of those,
So stay tuned for the queue to call on that,
and of course, get your lunch entries in. We're gonna
be doing that drawing on Wednesday. You're listening to the
Bloom Daddy Experience. Sam and Otis News Radio eleven seventy

(10:25):
WWVA Welcome back, seven twenty two. You're listening to the
bloom Daddy Experience Otis and Sam News Radio eleven seventy WWVA.
I hope everybody had a great weekend. It was gorgeous out.

(10:47):
It was an absolutely gorgeous weekend, to the point where
I wish I still had my pool open. I mean,
it was beautiful. I took advantage of it by going
to Ogleby Fest, got my annual wax melts and everything
that I get up there from the different artisans. It
was packed. It was absolutely packed. And then took advantage

(11:09):
of the drop off situation with the JB. Green team
out at the Belmont County Fairgrounds. Lines like crazy, but
got rid of got rid of a ton of crap
basically that has been lingering in our garage for years
at this point. So I had a pretty pretty productive,

(11:30):
productive weekend and watch something on Netflix that my husband
came into living room at the worst time and just
about lost his dinner. But I'll tell you about that
here in a minute. But Otis, how was uh, how
was your weekend?

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (11:50):
It was one of those weekends.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (11:54):
I spent Saturday.

Speaker 6 (11:56):
He made some money.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
I don't know if I've made a lot of money.

Speaker 5 (11:59):
But I just I've rotated it, let's put it that way. Now,
I participated in a card show out Advanced Memorial Church
and ended up selling some some wares into that once
a year, right or I don't remember when I think
the last I can't remember if it was last year
or earlier in the year. I remember you mentioning I

(12:20):
did another one Advanced earlier and then they've kind of
outgrown the church.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
So next year it's actually the.

Speaker 5 (12:30):
There used to be a big card show in Washington,
PA at the mall, and now they're going to be
remodeling that mol, tarying it down or doing some stuff.

Speaker 6 (12:37):
I think there's a cost Coco.

Speaker 5 (12:39):
Well that's the that's the other mall. Oh so where
they're going to do some renovations and whatnot. I guess
the card show at the at the Washington Mall is
now no longer going to happen. So it's going they're
going to do a big show next September. It's actually
September twenty sixth, and it's going to be held at
the Highlands Sports Complex. Oh so it's going to be

(13:00):
it should be a pretty big show.

Speaker 6 (13:02):
Nice, nice, nice, nice, Yeah, it was. Like I said,
it was an absolutely stunning weekend.

Speaker 5 (13:09):
It was.

Speaker 4 (13:10):
It was a great weather, oh man.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
And then of course I I, uh, I had a
couple of things that were unexpected that I had to
do over the weekend. That yeah, because well one of
them was my fault that I had to correct some
things on.

Speaker 4 (13:23):
So I did that.

Speaker 5 (13:25):
And then I have a friend that it's kind of
going through some medical stuff, so I'm helping him out
with with some of his responsibilities, and you know we're
going from there.

Speaker 6 (13:37):
So yeah, it was uh, yeah, I had. I had
a great weekend. Like I said, I felt like I
was really.

Speaker 5 (13:44):
I didn't spend time. I wanted to go to Ogebyfest
because my son had a booth up there.

Speaker 4 (13:49):
Never made it.

Speaker 6 (13:49):
Oh no, I I went up. I only went up
for maybe two hours. I didn't spend like the entire
day or anything. But I feel like I've gone to
be Fested now four straight years in a row, and
it's gotten to the point where I feel as if
if I don't go, my fall is not complete. It's

(14:10):
just one of those things now where it's an annual
thing that I have to that I have to pop
in and check out what's going on, and like I said,
it was perfect weather for it, so yeah, I took
advantage of that. But back to Netflix, now, I already
talked about we're not going to go down that route,
but the kids and everything that's going on. Of course,
it's picked up everywhere on social media ever race talking

(14:32):
about Netflix. The amount of money they've lost. Next last
number I saw was twenty oh twenty million and twenty
million or twenty billion they've lost in trades and this
and that, just because of the pushback on the trends
that they're doing. But released over the weekend or it

(14:53):
might have been earlier. Last week was the story of
ed Gean. Now I've mentioned this on here before. I'm
a huge true crime person. I have spoken about to
other people ed Gean multiple times. People never heard of
him before, never heard of him before, And I said,
probably four or five years ago, I can't believe nobody's

(15:13):
done a documentary or a movie on this guy because
he was basically the first media covered.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
Killer.

Speaker 6 (15:27):
Not a serial killer because they don't have the enough
bodies attributed to him, because I think you have to
have three or more victims to be considered a serial killer.
He only has two actually attributed to him. But if
you are a fan of true crime, go watch the
latest installment of Monster on Netflix. It is about Ed Green.

(15:47):
If you are not familiar with this man in Plainfield, Wisconsin,
and they called him the Goal of Plainfield, they called
him the play Mainfield Butcher, the grandfather of Gore, many nicknames.
But he was the inspiration for Alfred Hitchcock to create

(16:12):
for the movie Psycho and the author who wrote the
book Psycho. He was also the inspiration for Leatherface for
the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and also the inspiration for Buffalo
Bill in Silence of the Lambs. So if you're into
true crime, it is very well done. It is disturbing.

(16:39):
I will give you the give you a heads up
on that because my husband walked into the room where
he's walking around in a skin suit, hence the Buffalo
Bill inspiration, so make sure nobody's around. But by the
end of it, you feel bad for him, You do,
You really do feel bad for him for him, and
you know why because it all dates back to his

(17:01):
mother mothers. It's always on you not to make light
of it. But yeah, it is a really interesting and
well done docuseriies on Netflix. It's seven twenty eight. You're
listening to the bloom Daddy Experience. Sam and Otis News
Radio eleven seventy WWVA.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Welcome back to the show.

Speaker 3 (17:21):
On this Monday morning, You've got a war of words
brewing in Chicago between the Chicago Police Department and ICE.
I don't know if you saw the story where some
ICE vehicles were blocked in by protesters. They sent out
a message to Chicago police to help them, that they
were blocked in Chicago police ordered not to respond. Now

(17:44):
the leaders of the Chicago Police Department are saying that's
not true. But I've seen different media outlets. They've acquired
transcripts from the call where they are indeed telling the
Chicago police officers to basically stand down, not to respondents
win this situation unfolded, took the matter into their own hands.
They got out of their vehicles, they started shooting. I

(18:06):
believe they shot a woman. She drove herself to the
hospital get to take care, but she had an automatic
weapon in her vehicle.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
She was one of the ones leading the charge. It's
like a.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
Scene out of the movie, not Narcos, but Cicario. I
don't know if you've seen Ciccario where they're transporting the prisoner,
they get caught up in a traffic jam right there
at the border. There's cartel members that were sent to
kill them, and all of a sudden, all the special
ops guys get out of the vehicle and just start

(18:36):
laying down people, almost something similar to that. We're in
a crazy time where we are allowing politics to dictate
whether or not police respond to a situation. We are
in a crazy time where you have once again liberals
making criminals out to be the good guys and the

(18:58):
cops ice age out to be the bad guys. Never
thought I would see it get to this level where
we are putting the lives of people simply trying to
make this country better in jeopardy.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Over political stances. Chicago is a cesspool.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
You know it, I know it, And you know these
big cities with this democratic leadership of we got to
get give everybody second, third, fourth chances.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
We've got to we've got.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
To understand where they're coming from and get we need
more social workers. It's going to turn cities into third
world countries, and nobody's going to want to go and
nobody's going to live there. It's going to be like
something out of Mad Max. That's where I see this going.
I see such poor leadership, I see such poor decision making.

(19:53):
I see cities that can't find cops because cops.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
Refuse to work there anymore.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
Defund the police, which was the dumbest thing in the
history of mankind, has left wounds that have not healed,
and you cannot find enough police officers now to patrol
the streets. There are certain cities that have now citizen
review boards, who are who are elected paid positions to

(20:22):
judge police actions. So if you're a policeman and you
pull your pistol and you fire a shot, not only
are you subject to an internal review, which you should be,
but now you've got this citizen.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Review board, which is just like a school board.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
Has anybody in their lifetime ever met somebody who ran
for school board that didn't have an ax to grind,
same thing with these boards. These people are on these
boards because they hate the police. They want to get
back at the police.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
And that's who's judging you.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
In some cities, these review boards have more power to
discipline police officers than the police department and the mayor.
Think about that for a second. So if you're a
police officer, do you want to work for that city?
Not a chance. And that's why you have in most
of these cities the police force down three four six,
eight hundred officers. There's cities out there, Cleveland being one

(21:15):
of them. They can't even do traffic patrols anymore. People park,
people do whatever they want. They don't have enough manpower
to police the streets that way. The days of walking
the beat gone, and walking the beat is invaluable because
that's what builds the bond between people in a neighborhood
and the cops that patrol it. They get to know

(21:37):
each other, they get to respect each other.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
It's huge. You ask any cop that if.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
There's one thing that they could go back to doing
that would solve a lot of problems, what would it be,
And they would say, foot patrols on the streets.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
People get to know you, people get to trust you.
Same thing.

Speaker 3 (21:55):
Cops get to know certain people. Don't have the people anymore,
don't have the people.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
But you literally.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Have police commanders in Chicago telling the police to stand
down when they knew Ice agents, federal agents were in
a very precarious, dangerous situation. It's absolutely disgusting. And this
is one of those issues that democrats they're just some
Democrats understand it, but a lot of them don't that

(22:28):
when you take the stance against law and order, it
is a lose lose when it comes to voters. It
is a lose lose when it comes to elections. As
a matter of fact, in a way, I'm glad they're
taking that stance because it's going to continue to seal
their fate. If you would have told me two years ago,
three years ago that John Fetterman, Democratic Senator from Pennsylvania

(22:53):
would be the most sane Democrat out there, Ada said,
drop the crack pipe and go put yourself in rehab.
But take a look at the political landscape right now.
John Fetterman, the Democrat from Pennsylvania, who looks like Lurch,
who looks like that thing that was tied up in

(23:14):
the basement of the Goonies, Choco Glute, chip Rocky Road,
that guy is the most sane Democratic politician out there
other than Josh Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania. So many
of them are so left that they have absolutely destroyed
the Democratic Party and I don't know if it can

(23:36):
come back, because you've got Democrats out there that are
too scared to stand up to the left. And it's
a shame because that party is dead and buried, dead
and buried. And I don't know how any Democrat out
there can think otherwise. And until the moderates step up,
until the Democrats with common sense step.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Up, they got no chance.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
The Blue Daddy Experience eleven seventy WWVA back with more
after this.

Speaker 6 (24:13):
It's seven forty eight on this Monday, The Bloom Daddy
Experience otis and Sam News Radio eleven seventy WWVA. Ohis
real quick. I wanted to follow up a little bit
on Blue Daddy's conversation before the break about Chicago. Everything well.
The National Union, the nation's largest police union, has condemned

(24:34):
reports that Chicago officers were told not to help ice.
They are saying calling it shocking and a violation of
law enform enforcement's duty to protect fellow officers in danger.
That was my first thought when I heard this report
last night, was where's the brotherhood? I mean, despite what

(24:54):
arm of law enforcement you may be connected with, personally,
I mean, where's the brotherhood? Betw between all of law enforcement.
They also said details are still emerging, but it appears
that officers from the from the Chicago Police Department were
ordered not to assist a group of ICE agents while
they were physically threatened by what appeared to be an

(25:15):
angry mob. So the Fraternal Order of Police has spoken
out on what happened over the weekend in Chicago. Along
with that, I mean, we're gonna talk about this on Wednesday,
but when does he get to the point where this
isn't protesting. That's not what this is. This isn't protesting.

(25:36):
This is violence. This is this is this is straight up,
in your face violence. When did we lose sight that
law enforcement is a you know, a pillar of of
careers in this country. We spit on them, we curse
at them, we threaten their lives. Were not we but

(25:58):
the these mobs of people who I bet if you
went and asked some of these people straight up, one
on one, why are they out there? You know, what
are they so angry about? What are they quote unquote protesting?
They probably actually couldn't tell you. I bet the only
thing they could say is Trump. But when it comes

(26:18):
down to actual specifics, I bet they couldn't. I bet
they couldn't really explain why they're out there. They're the
sheep that follow the loudest whistle or the squeakiest wheel,
but asking details of why they're really doing what they're doing,
they probably can't answer it. One thing I did want

(26:40):
to bring up, though, not to make light, but I
don't know if you saw over the weekend the ICE
officials or ICE agents, there was somebody in Portland that
decided to protest their little early on Halloween. But they

(27:02):
decided to protest in one of those inflatable frog costumes,
the ones that have like the the battery operated air
vent that keeps the air circulating so that it can inflate.
Thinking that they were I don't know, out of the
CDC wearing one of those big white things, if they

(27:22):
were protecting themselves from from mace. Well didn't work out.
It did not work out for them. Ice agents sprayed
the pepper spray directly into the fan vent or the
air vent, so it's circulated right through the costume costume.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
You know.

Speaker 6 (27:43):
For I don't want to laugh, I'm not trying to
make light, but if you're gonna be stupid enough, Number
one to go out and participate in any of this violence,
any of this destruction on our major city streets. You
deserve what you get. But if you're gonna do it
in an inflatable costume of a frog, at least be

(28:08):
the t Rex. I mean, come on, at least the
t Rex is kind of cool. But you're gonna be
a frog? Okay, your dork. I gotta give it to
the ice agents who are like, yeah, sorry, not gonna work.
You're getting pepper spray up the tail vent. It's all
there's too straight up the pipe. Then in Chicago there

(28:30):
was another person who, once they were arrested, decided that
they weren't gonna walk. They weren't gonna walk. They were
just gonna lay down, not gonna walk. Listen, these agents,
these law enforcement officials, they've had it. They're done with
the stupidity. So they basically walked a home depot or

(28:51):
Sam's Club or Low's whatever was nearest, and have you.
You know the flatbeds that you pushed through Sam's Club
or the big warehouse shopping flat beds at Low's. You know,
they went and got one of those and thought, hey,
guess what, You're not gonna walk. We're gonna give you
a ride. Humiliate these people, make them look like fools

(29:17):
that they are. I would have wrapped them up in
a bow and sat them on that push cart and
shoved them down the street. I mean, we are seeing
radicalized stupidity, that's what we're seeing. And the fact that

(29:42):
a top cop in one of the nation's largest cities
put a stop to helping other brothers in arms or
brothers in law enforcement from assistance from an angry mob.
He should immediately be fired, no questions asked. Should be

(30:05):
immediately fired, plain and simple, Plain and simple. Otis if
you showed up to a protest and you decided to
wear an inflatable costume, what would you go with? Did
you go with a frog?

Speaker 4 (30:22):
I'd go with the sumo wrestler.

Speaker 6 (30:28):
Oh again, I'm not trying to make light of any
of this, but when these people are this dumb, they're
this stupid, I can't help but call him out. I can't.
I can't. It's just these cities are chaos. It has

(30:49):
turned into chaos, and it's disgusting. It's disgusting. It's it's
where is law and order? These people don't want law
and order. They want to turn the major cities of
this country into third world nations. And that's what they're doing.

(31:10):
That is what they are doing, because, like I said,
if you wouldn't ask these people what they're actually out
there for, they probably couldn't tell you, or what they
did tell you would be so far wrong that they

(31:31):
would look like, you know what, donkeys just with the
other term. Yeah, it's just it's I am so glad
I live where I live. I am so glad I
live in rural America. I truly do. You couldn't pay

(31:52):
me right now to go to Chicago or Portland or
New York City. You couldn't pay me, You couldn't give
me a free trip. I wouldn't go there. I wouldn't
go there. People have lost their minds. They have lost
their minds. Somebody else that lost their mind A couple well,

(32:14):
about a month or so ago, while we were on vacation,
notice was Cracker Barrel kind of turning the turning a
little left here from the crazy angry mobs. Remember that
whole debacle. Thank god they came to their senses because
I was at Cracker Barrel Friday. I love Cracker Barrel,

(32:35):
not their food I love their little gift shop. I
do half of my holiday shopping at Cracker Barrel. And
when I saw what they did while we were on vacation,
I came back. I'm like, what's up with Cracker Barrel?
They lost their minds? Well, they came back to their
sanity a bit while people are finally starting to pay
the consequences. They are Cracker Barrels cutting ties with the
consulting firm that was behind the dumpster fire of a rebrand.

(33:01):
So they're out. They got canned. The company announced its
ending with The company was called Profit. That was the
brand consulting firm, and Profit is not going to make
a profit off of Cracker Barrel any longer. They were
the ones in charge of the design of the new logo,

(33:22):
the new marketing campaign, the entire thing. They were the
ones that wanted to get rid of Uncle Herschel, which
by the way, was a real guy. And they're out.
They're out. So my holiday shopping, my mother's day shopping
is all okay. When I tell you I shop at

(33:43):
Cracker Barrel, I dropped sixty bucks in the gift shop
on Friday, So I'm telling you, I hope my husband
isn't listening.

Speaker 7 (33:51):
Thank God? What'd you get in five things?

Speaker 6 (33:55):
Now? I got myself something, and I started some Christmas
shopping honestly, sixty bucks for Christmas?

Speaker 7 (34:03):
Wow, which I hope I'm on that list.

Speaker 6 (34:06):
What would I get you for Christmas? At Cracker Barrel?

Speaker 2 (34:09):
Sarah?

Speaker 5 (34:09):
I got bloom Daddy something from Cracker Barrel one time.
Oh really, yeah, it was a baseball it was actually
on say it was a baseball trivia book.

Speaker 6 (34:17):
Oh that would be a good one.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
Huh.

Speaker 6 (34:20):
I never think to look for guys for anything at
Cracker Barrel, although I did see an a CD DC
sweatshit that my dad would love now that I'm thinking
about it, so yes, I.

Speaker 4 (34:29):
Could not picture my dadd in an acc.

Speaker 5 (34:32):
T shirt my dad loves as My dad's a country
guys and old school hardcore.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
George Jones, Merle Haggard, Johnny.

Speaker 6 (34:40):
Cash, Twangy, twangy, it's seven fifty eight. Just a reminder,
we're gonna have your chance to win Resurrection Island Tattoo
Convention tickets coming up a little bit later. You're listening
to the bloom Daddy Experience, samon Otis News Radio eleven
seventy in.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Seed number one Tuck Show in the Ohio Alley. This
is no bloom Daddy experience. Your host bloom Daddy. His
goal inform, entertain and tick people off the bloom Daddy experience.
On news Radio eleven seventy. WWVA starts now.

Speaker 3 (35:13):
News Radio eleven seventy gets the bloom Daddy experience.

Speaker 2 (35:17):
Hey, it's eighth six. Let's get this hour rolling. Good
Monday morning to you.

Speaker 3 (35:21):
And I never, in my wildest imagination thought I would
be starting off a Monday morning by saying, congratulation Hilltopper
football team. You gotta win one in five on the season.
I'll tell you what everything I said before this, throw
it out the window. Another lifetime contract for Roger Wilie.
He won one game. I mean he's probably gonna finish

(35:44):
one in ten, but that's good enough. At West Liberty University,
another lifetime contract. And that's good news for Roger because
when he comes back in his next life, if you
believe in reincarnation, and if he comes back as a
football coach again, he can go up to West Liberty
and coach football, win one game a year for the
next forty years, and have a lifetime job. So congratulations,

(36:09):
I hear, I hear they have a parade planned maybe
later today. I think they're gonna get all well, one
truck from the West Liberty Fire Department go down Main
Street and West Liberty celebrating this monumental milestone.

Speaker 2 (36:27):
And I hear right.

Speaker 3 (36:28):
Outside of the Dirty Dog they may erect a Roger Wiley.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
Statue after this win this weekend.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
I mean, this is big news. Recruiting is gonna go
through the ceiling. West Libs on the wind table. Baby,
I believe the first time all year that Roger Wileye's
offense has scored more than twenty points. The only offense
more inept than West Liberty's offense would be the Cleveland Browns.
But once again, gotta give credit where credit is due.

(36:58):
My man, A big, big win final seconds too. I
think I didn't go look at the highlights because well,
I had other things to do, like go to the proctologist.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
But hey, a win is a win. Oice. Why you
laughing in there, buddy.

Speaker 6 (37:16):
I'm laughing because he said proctologists.

Speaker 4 (37:19):
Well that's part of it. You know.

Speaker 5 (37:21):
You don't think that you're gonna hear proctologists in the
morning conversation, No, especially here.

Speaker 6 (37:27):
Just visions.

Speaker 7 (37:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (37:29):
I mean, I mean, look, you know, I'm not one
to I don't follow West Liberty football that much. I
know they haven't been successful for a long time. I
know Roger Wilie was very good friends with Gary West,
and Gary West was kind of like, hey, I still
want him to be the coach, but you know, your performer,
if you're going to be raided on your performance, it

(37:51):
hasn't been very good the last few years. And you
know we said this earlier. You know, sometimes it's maybe
due for a chain coaches coaches out where what am
I trying to.

Speaker 6 (38:06):
Say out outlast their welcome there?

Speaker 4 (38:08):
You go something of that date.

Speaker 7 (38:09):
I knew where you were getting at.

Speaker 5 (38:16):
You Sometimes the culture just trickles down to the coach
at the other the assistant coaches, and maybe you're just
not into it anymore. Maybe the game has passed you by.
I mean we see that happen all the time. I mean,
maybe you can't handle the nil, maybe you can't handle
the transfer portal. I mean, we've seen hell of a
lot of better coaches get out of their sports because

(38:38):
of it. Nick Saban got out, Jay Wright got out,
Shrzyzhevsky got out, Roy Williams got out. I mean, they're
all getting out because the direction of the change of
how things are done. And some coaches can adapt. Bob
Huggins was one of those coaches that adapted. John Calipari adapted.

(39:02):
You know, Ryan Day has adapted. Not that he's had
not that he had a problem getting players, but it's
a matter of keeping them as well. So, you know,
coaches can adapt, but some of the old school coaches can't.
And we talked about you know, you talked about Bill
Belichick earlier being at North Carolina. You know, as a

(39:23):
successful NFL coach doesn't.

Speaker 4 (39:25):
Make you a successful college coach, and vice versa. So
it doesn't matter the.

Speaker 5 (39:30):
Sport, you know, coach, you know after you know you
can have I mean Bill Belichick got out of New
England because they kind of agreed that he had you
know out warn't is welcome. So it happens, it happens
to the best of them.

Speaker 6 (39:48):
Well, and any other thing is when if you use
Belichick as an example or other coaches, a lot of
it's timing its atmosphere. You know, sometimes the stars align,
as they say, and but you would be proud to
me this weekend Saturday of course, what we watched the
high state game out in the woods, which I know

(40:08):
sounds weird, but we have this whole area in our neighborhood.
But anyways, everybody's sitting there talking and they were talking
about the nil and the money and this and that,
and it was a whole group of guys and I
piped in and I said, listen, I said, you gotta understand, though,
we're all sitting here as a high state fans with
a crap ton of money to get players. I said,
you got to look at the mid level schools like

(40:29):
a WVU, who don't have that money. So the competitive
level when it comes to college football, the landscape is
going to drastically change. I said, You're going to constantly
hear the same names over and over again. And I said,
Otis has pointed that out on our show multiple times,
that the landscape of college football is actually going to

(40:50):
become boring.

Speaker 5 (40:51):
It's going to be the same nine to ten teams
every year. You're going to have a couple that are
going to sneak in, They're going to have a great year.
Are going to be that that that wild card, so
to speak, And that's that's gonna change every year, but
you you're the top nine, eight or nine teams will
be consistently the same year in year out.

Speaker 6 (41:13):
And that's what I pointed out to you know, this
whole group, and they're like, oh, they started trying to
argue with me. Said, it's very easy for us, all
of us sitting here right now as Buckeye fans, to say, no, no, no,
it's not the money.

Speaker 4 (41:26):
Well it's not.

Speaker 6 (41:27):
It is the money. It is also the the history
of success with the team too. I mean, you've got
to factor that in there. But when you put in
the money side of it also.

Speaker 4 (41:37):
But if you're going to go.

Speaker 5 (41:37):
History, then you would think that Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Florida
and Florida.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
State would be there every year as well.

Speaker 5 (41:44):
But they're not because they haven't adapted well right right
your Penn States, I mean and and Franklin showed his
colors the other day. He said, look, you know, you
guys are complained about me not being able to be
top franked opponents from I'm going to lose to an UND,
I'm gonna lose to somebody that's own four.

Speaker 4 (42:03):
I'm gonna show you yeah.

Speaker 6 (42:07):
Yeah, Speaking of that, the top five teams and the
lotus recent latest coaches, Paul just.

Speaker 4 (42:16):
Spin it out.

Speaker 6 (42:17):
I can't speak this morning.

Speaker 4 (42:18):
Well that's a requirement of yeah, I know.

Speaker 7 (42:21):
Sometimes it's not just this morning.

Speaker 6 (42:23):
No, Ohio State is once again thank you. Ohio State
is once again leading the nation at number one, followed
by Oregon, Miami, Ole, Miss and Texas. A and m.
Alabama climbed three spots to number eight. In Texas Tech
rose to rose four spots to round out the top ten.
Penn State, speaking of, dropped sixteen spots ranked and is

(42:48):
now ranked twenty second. Virginia is twenty fourth, in Memphis
is twenty fifth.

Speaker 7 (42:54):
Yikes, schools have dropped out Florida State in Utah.

Speaker 6 (42:57):
Yeah, Penn State, man.

Speaker 4 (43:00):
But you know what it is.

Speaker 5 (43:01):
It's a playoff season for the baseball So they continued
a couple game twos yesterday that was on the American
League side. Blue Jays again blew They blew out the
Yankees on Saturday, ten to one.

Speaker 6 (43:15):
Wasn't it like sixteen or something?

Speaker 5 (43:16):
Thirteen to seven yesterday, So they're up to nothing. That
will be traveling to New York and resuming play tomorrow.
The Mariners, they evened up the best of five series
against the Tigers. With a three to two win from Seattle,
that's going to shift to Detroit for Game three today.
The postseason continues with the Phillies hosting the Dodgers and
the Brewers hosting the Cubs in Game two of the

(43:38):
National League Series. So LA and Milwaukee are leading the
series one nothing.

Speaker 6 (43:42):
I can't help but sort of root for the Blue Jays.
I don't know why. They're just one of those teams.

Speaker 4 (43:49):
For that meme I sent you and we're not going.

Speaker 6 (43:54):
But I mean they're just one of those smaller like.

Speaker 4 (43:57):
Well they're they're a mid market team.

Speaker 6 (43:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (43:59):
I mean, if you really want to root for, you
either got to root for Milwaukee, Detroit or Toronto. If
you don't want one of the money teams to win.

Speaker 6 (44:06):
Yeah, I just I don't know for some reason.

Speaker 4 (44:08):
I because the other four are basically money teams.

Speaker 6 (44:10):
I mean, they're called the Blue Jays. Just can't help,
but you know, they pull it more hard.

Speaker 4 (44:15):
They've had a couple World Series rings under their belt.

Speaker 7 (44:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (44:19):
And speaking of coaches, just a little bit, go back
to the NFL real quick, Kevin Stefanski, God give up
calling the offense for the love of God, please for
Brown's fan everywhere, fans everywhere, please please, you have an
offensive coordinator for a reason, otherwise you're gonna be out

(44:41):
of a job.

Speaker 4 (44:42):
They travel to Pittsburgh next week. Yeah there's another loss.

Speaker 5 (44:45):
Well, you know what, probably not because it's the NFL
and they'll come into Pittsburgh and win.

Speaker 6 (44:51):
I don't know that ain't gonna happen. It's eight sixteen.
What was I gonna say? Ah, you're listening to the
Blue Daddy Experience.

Speaker 4 (44:57):
You get your change to win coming up here in
a little bit.

Speaker 6 (44:59):
Yes, we do have that two Resurrection Island Tattoo convention.
We got another pair of tickets coming up here shortly.
Here on news Radio eleven seventy WWVA, we are back
at eight twenty one on this Monday, the Bloem Daddy
Experience OTIS and SAM News Radio eleven seventy WWVA. We're

(45:21):
gonna kick off the week with our buddy buddy old
pal Kevin Cook's Drab Automotive.

Speaker 2 (45:26):
Good morning, morning, guys.

Speaker 8 (45:28):
How y'all doing.

Speaker 6 (45:29):
Good, good good good? All right. I'm gonna start this
off this morning, Kevin, Cuz lucky you stop. My husband
and I were having a conversation this weekend, and we
really don't know the difference or the benefits between buying
versus leasing are. What are the pluses and minuses between

(45:50):
the two.

Speaker 9 (45:51):
Well, more depends on not just pluses and minus it
more depends on what your ownership habits are, your driving habits,
the miles for you you put on the vehicle. For instance,
when leasing a vehicle, it normally has an annual mileage
limitation of teny, twelve thousand, or fifteen thousand. So if

(46:12):
you're a person that likes to trade a vehicle quite often,
I say every three years, and you drive about twelve
thousand miles a year, then I would definitely suggest leasing
because during that lease, it's more than likely you're the
only thing that you're going to have to do during
that time. It's just changed the world rotax tires, so
you're going to have a controlled fixed costs monthly of

(46:34):
what your ownership experience or driving experience. Then at the
end of the lease, you have a couple of auctions.
You can buy the vehicle out for a predetermined residual
amount or lease another one. And most people just once
they start leasing, they just continue leasing. Buying a vehicle
has advantages if you have a lot of equity. Okay,

(46:56):
let's say you drive a vehicle for you know, you
like to keep them five or six years, you like
to pay them off, or you like to pay cash
for them. Uh, and you that way, you're you're not
limited to how many miles a year you drive. Okay,
So it just it just basically depends upon what your

(47:18):
driving style is. And you know how you know how
you whether you like a new vehicle for three years
or you like to drive until the wheelstall off.

Speaker 6 (47:25):
Gotcha. Well, we started the conversation this weekend about you know,
making some changes, doing this, doing that, and then I said,
you know, we've never even talked about doing a lease
or like, well, neither of us knew anything about it.
So that's kind of where this all came.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
A year do you drive?

Speaker 6 (47:40):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (47:42):
She's lucky she knows where the gas goes alone, or
how many miles you drive.

Speaker 9 (47:49):
Lacy also normally has a much lower monthly payment as well. Yeah,
thirty six month Lace normally has a lower payment than
a seventy two month by gotcha. So a lot of
people like to do that because it is sometimes it's
a less expensive way to own a vehicle.

Speaker 6 (48:03):
So the best way is to come up and talk
to you first, face to face and go there.

Speaker 9 (48:07):
But you do need to have a little information. You
kind of need to know how many miles a year
you drive?

Speaker 6 (48:12):
Right now, I understand what it help. I would be
able to figure it out. I just don't know it
off the top of my head.

Speaker 7 (48:18):
Stop anyways, So what's going on is DRAWB Automotive. Now
that you've answered her questions.

Speaker 9 (48:24):
Well, you know, hey, we got leases there you go. Yeah,
and there's a lot of vehicles that you can lease
for under two hundred bucks a month, wow, which is
just incredible.

Speaker 7 (48:35):
Wow.

Speaker 9 (48:36):
Right. You can even get in all wheel drives for
in the mid two hundred range, okay, fifty two sixty
two seventy for some of the all will drive vehicles
that we have, and full size SUVs are in the
mid three hundreds, you know, And those are payments that
you know, again we've talked about that you could. You know,
there're ten years ago we were we were advertising payments

(48:57):
in that price range. So go online check out the
payments for yourself. You also check out by payments. You
check out what a cash purchase will be so you know,
no matter what you're looking for, log on to the
drivestrob dot com. You know new used, Honda, Honda, Nissan
crossiodaged you, Pram or Forward. We've got it. They're all
on sale and it's a good week Bye.

Speaker 4 (49:17):
Perfect there.

Speaker 7 (49:19):
I might have to turn my head on you could
hear me, but nobody else could. I saw your mouth moving,
so thank Hey, well thanks, we know it's a busy man.

Speaker 4 (49:30):
Rights, we'll see it. He went it out.

Speaker 5 (49:33):
He must have had a customer because he had a
customer right before I called oh, because I was like,
I thought it was going to go to voicemail, and
he guess nope, I was dealing with the customer.

Speaker 7 (49:39):
I said, well, who comes first, I said, the customer.

Speaker 4 (49:41):
He gets the customer.

Speaker 7 (49:42):
Customer, absolutely right, good answer.

Speaker 6 (49:45):
No, I didn't mean to just you know, drop that
on him. But we did honestly have that conversation this weekend,
so you know, you never know.

Speaker 7 (49:52):
Well, we talked a little sports. Last segment, got a
little bit.

Speaker 6 (49:55):
More for you, Mark Sanchez, No oh.

Speaker 4 (49:58):
Something bigger?

Speaker 7 (50:01):
Wwe No bigger. The Penguins gearing up for their regular
season opener. It's that time already.

Speaker 4 (50:10):
Yeah, it's gonna be.

Speaker 5 (50:11):
They take on the Rangers tomorrow night from New York.
Pittsburgh went five to one and one in the Preseason's
that's promising. If you're thinking about the preseason, that's very promising.
You can catch each and every Penguins game all season long,
starting tomorrow on our sister station, Eagle one oh seven five.

Speaker 6 (50:28):
I can't believe we're already talking hockey.

Speaker 7 (50:31):
Well, guess who'll be starting up next? The Nailers, the Nailors.

Speaker 6 (50:35):
Yeah, so the ice is down.

Speaker 7 (50:37):
I do know that ice is down. I do know
that it sounds like a song like a Robert like
the lights are.

Speaker 4 (50:43):
On, the ice is down. Mmmm, it is not your
own said.

Speaker 6 (50:50):
The one where in the video the women in the
black dresses. Yeah, it's one of the most iconic videos
and so weird at the same time they were like
zombie women.

Speaker 7 (51:00):
You know.

Speaker 5 (51:00):
It was funny because I was thinking about I heard
the promo for Elvis Costello for tomorrow night. Elvis Costello
here tomorrow night at the Capitol Theater. Obviously, go to
their website if you want tickets, And I was thinking,
if we were if we were gonna be lucky enough
to interview him, which we weren't because you know, he's
not doing interviews. But one of the questions I would

(51:23):
have asked him was how did MTV change his career
because he came out in the late seventies, but that
kind of broke down and then you know, like the
songs that he's doing tomorrow night are from the your
first ten years of his So I think it's like
eleven albums, nine or eleven. I can't remember how many
albums exactly, but just was kind of curious, you know,

(51:44):
like because I can remember I remember like from eighty
five or eighty six, every day I write the book
coming out and seeing that video and it was in
heavy rotation on MTV, and that's kind of what got
me into Elvis Costello.

Speaker 4 (51:58):
I mean I had never really kind.

Speaker 6 (52:00):
Of really put him on the map into Yeah, I
think every day.

Speaker 4 (52:04):
So anyway, let's do it.

Speaker 6 (52:06):
Oh No Resurrection Island Tattoo Convention. Okay, all right, all right.

Speaker 7 (52:13):
You're well because we're running out of time.

Speaker 6 (52:15):
It's eight twenty eight. You're listening to the Blue Daddy Experience.
Samon Otis News Radio eleven seventy WWVA.

Speaker 2 (52:26):
Welcome back to the show on this Monday morning.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
You've got a war of words brewing in Chicago between
the Chicago Police Department and ICE. I don't know if
you saw the story where some ICE vehicles were blocked
in by protesters. They sent out a message to Chicago
police to help them, that they were blocked in Chicago
police ordered not to respond. Now the leaders of the

(52:50):
Chicago Police Department are saying that's not true. But I've
seen different media outlets they've acquired transcripts from the call
where they are indeed telling the Chicago Police officers to
basically stand down, not to respond. The ICE agents win
this situation unfolded, took the matter into their own hands.
They got out of their vehicles, they started shooting. I

(53:12):
believe they shot a woman. She drove herself to the
hospital get to take care, but she had an automatic
weapon in her vehicle. She was one of the ones
leading the charge. It's like a scene out of the movie,
not Narcos, but Cicario. I don't know if you've seen
Ciccario where they're transporting the prisoner. They get caught up
in a traffic jam right there at the border. There's

(53:35):
cartel members that were sent to kill them, and all
of a sudden, all the special ops guys get out
of the vehicle and just start laying down people, almost
something similar to that. We're in a crazy time where
we are allowing politics to dictate whether or not police
respond to a situation. We're in a crazy time where

(53:57):
you have once again liberals making criminals out to be
the good guys and the cops ice agents out.

Speaker 2 (54:06):
To be the bad guys.

Speaker 3 (54:07):
Never thought I would see it get to this level
where we are putting the lives of people simply trying
to make this country better in jeopardy.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
Over political stances. Chicago is a cesspool. You know it.
I know it.

Speaker 3 (54:25):
And you know these big cities with this democratic leadership
of we got to give everybody second, third, fourth chances.

Speaker 2 (54:34):
We've got to we've got to.

Speaker 3 (54:35):
Understand where they're coming from and get we need more
social workers. It's going to turn cities into third world countries,
and nobody's going to want to go and nobody's going
to live there. It's going to be like something out
of Mad Max. That's where I see this going. I
see such poor leadership, I see such poor decision making.

(54:58):
I see cities that can't find cops because cops.

Speaker 2 (55:01):
Refuse to work there anymore.

Speaker 3 (55:03):
Defund the police, which was the dumbest thing in the
history of mankind, has left wounds that have not healed,
and you cannot find enough police officers now to patrol
the streets. There are certain cities that have now citizen
review boards, who are who are elected paid positions to

(55:27):
judge police actions. So if you're a policeman and you
pull your pistol and you fire a shot, not only
are you subject to an internal review, which you should be,
but now you've got this citizen review board, which is
just like a school board. Has anybody in their lifetime
ever met somebody who ran for a school board that
didn't have an ax to grind? Same thing with these boards.

(55:49):
These people are on these boards because they hate the police.
They want to get back at the police, and.

Speaker 2 (55:55):
That's who's judging you.

Speaker 3 (55:58):
In some cities, these review boards have more power to
discipline police officers than the police department and the mayor.
Think about that for a second. So if you're a
police officer, do you want to work for that city?
Not a chance. And that's why you have in most
of these cities, the police force down three four six
eight hundred officers. There's cities out there, Cleveland being one

(56:20):
of them. They can't even do traffic patrols anymore. People park,
people do whatever they want. They don't have enough manpower
to police the streets that way. The days of walking
the beat gone, and walking the beat is invaluable because
that's what builds the bond between people in a neighborhood
and the cops that patrol it. They get to know

(56:42):
each other, they get to respect each other.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
It's huge. You ask any cop that if.

Speaker 3 (56:47):
There's one thing that they could go back to doing
that would solve a lot of problems, what would it be,
And they would say, foot patrols on the streets. People
get to know you, people get to trust you. Say thing,
cops get to know certain people. Don't have the people anymore,
don't have the people.

Speaker 2 (57:06):
But you literally.

Speaker 3 (57:09):
Have police commanders in Chicago telling the police to stand
down when they knew Ice agents federal agents were in
a very precarious, dangerous situation. It's absolutely disgusting. And this
is one of those issues that democrats they're just some
democrats understand it, but a lot of them don't. That

(57:33):
when you take the stance against law and order. It
is a lose lose when it comes to voters. It
is a lose lose when it comes to elections. As
a matter of fact, in a way, I'm glad they're
taking that stance because it's going to continue to seal
their fate. If you would have told me two years ago,
three years ago that John Fetterman, Democratic Senator from Pennsylvania

(57:58):
would be the most same Democrat out there, Ada said,
drop the crack pipe and go put yourself in rehab.
But take a look at the political landscape right now.
John Fetterman, the Democrat from Pennsylvania, who looks like Lurch,
who looks like that thing that was tied up in

(58:19):
the basement of the Goonies, Choco Glute, chip Rocky Road.
That guy is the most sane Democratic politician out there
other than Josh Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania. So many
of them are so left that they have absolutely destroyed
the Democratic Party. And I don't know if it can

(58:41):
come back because you've got Democrats out there that are
too scared to stand up to the left. And it's
a shame because that party is dead and buried dead.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
And buried.

Speaker 3 (58:52):
And I don't know how any Democrat out there can
think otherwise. And until the moderates step up, up, until
the Democrats with common sense step.

Speaker 2 (59:03):
Up, they got no chance.

Speaker 3 (59:07):
The Blue Daddy Experience eleven seventy WWVA back with more
after this.

Speaker 6 (59:16):
Eight forty eight on this Monday, The bloom Daddy Experience
otis and Sam News Radio eleven seventy WWVA otis. We
haven't heard from this guy in a while, Oh.

Speaker 7 (59:27):
Amazon, because you skipped him last week?

Speaker 6 (59:29):
Yeah I did, I did, I pulled the plug on him.
H But Amazon, if you haven't heard, Amazon's October Prime
Days begin tomorrow, and the Amazon founder is here to
urge you to log on and buy as much as possible.
But it's all support, but it's all to support a
very worthy cause.

Speaker 4 (59:51):
I am Jeff p Shiffs.

Speaker 10 (59:52):
He'll excuse me for I dispense with my usual pleasantries
and salutations because you've got a job to do.

Speaker 7 (01:00:00):

Speaker 10 (01:00:02):
Come on, time to roll up your sleeves and rise
to the challenge.

Speaker 4 (01:00:07):
Of making me the world's richest man.

Speaker 10 (01:00:11):
You see, I'm tired of being the thirsty third behind
Elon must sloppy seconds and Larry Ellison's Filthy First. Is
it too much to ask that you drop a Measley
grand on some trinkets and widgets and gizmos in order
that we all can raise our voices together and chants.

Speaker 2 (01:00:28):
Won I'm number one, I'm number one.

Speaker 4 (01:00:31):
Come on, people, louder I'm number one.

Speaker 7 (01:00:34):
I'm number one.

Speaker 4 (01:00:37):
L FG. Let me say at the end some fg
oh LFG. Let's freaking go.

Speaker 6 (01:00:45):
Oh okay, okay, I'm not up on all my my letters,
my god, get that. I'm sorry. That's hilarious. A little
bit of a little little secret for Amazon Prime Days,
you know, like it's the biggest thing. But if you
haven't checked out across the very top of your Amazon

(01:01:06):
app on your phone where it has it like there's
little bubbles and it says like new releases and and
and it gives you categories. There's a little one that
says haul h a U L h a U L.
Click on that. Trust me. If you want to talk
about cheap savings, go on that because you will find

(01:01:27):
some deals.

Speaker 7 (01:01:27):
We got a phone call we do.

Speaker 5 (01:01:29):
We have Davo who wants to talk about bloom Daddy
segment on Chicago Good Morning Dave.

Speaker 8 (01:01:34):
Good morning, Good morning.

Speaker 4 (01:01:35):
Hey.

Speaker 8 (01:01:35):
Well, first, just to get it out of the way,
I want to clarify that I think bloom Daddy should
compare John Fetterman more to Uncle Fester that lerch. I
think he's a little more.

Speaker 7 (01:01:48):
Well, yeah, I think's characters are.

Speaker 8 (01:01:51):
Yeah, that's okay, at least gom Cousin is so. But
his point there about the Democrat Party slot, I think
he really needs to point out that it's not just
that the Democrats have lost their way or anything. They've
actually been taken over by the Communist Party and the

(01:02:12):
communist philosophy, which is to create chaos, and you know,
whether it's in the streets or whether it's just society
in general. And it's really not just the Democrat Party
of old. It's been completely taken over. And a lot
of people, especially the old school Democrats, just don't realize that.

(01:02:34):
And I got two quick examples. I'll throw them out
as quick as I can. The Republican running for governor
in Florida taken over for Desanta. Since he's turned out,
he was on radio saying in twenty ten when the
Tea Party movement was making its big move Back then
he was a Democrat, but really didn't pay attention to politics.

(01:02:57):
He had to get involved because he's in finding answer
as a lawyer and had to get involved for his
client and understand what was going on in political environment.
He said, the more I studied it. First of all,
as he got into politics for the first time, he
realized these guys are idiots, but especially the Democrat side.
As he really studied it, said like, who are these people?

(01:03:18):
He says, I've been a Democrat all my life, I'm
not a Democrat, and now he says, I'm one of
the most conservative guys you'd ever know. I was like
that back then but didn't realize where the Democrat party
went and now here he is, you know. And then
a very closer to home example, the woman who cuts
my hair, she's thirty eight years old just two weeks ago.

(01:03:41):
So I've been a registered Democrat all my life and
I'd never vote a Democrats because about six seven years
ago she said, I'm talking to somebody, says as I
expressed my viewpoints and where time she said, You're not
a Democrat. Don't you realize everything you just said is
not what your party stands for or what you think
your party is. And these people don't realize I know

(01:04:04):
when they call uh Trump pitler or Nazi whatever that's
we used to think I was just a joke. Oh no,
they need it half time. I actually believe it.

Speaker 6 (01:04:13):
Yeah, they do, they do. And and you know what, David,
I appreciate the call. Keep uh Colin if you would,
if you have time, call on Wednesday morning and we
talk when we get into politics Unleashed, because yeah, this
is going to go along one of the topics that
I'm going to present to our two commentators on this,
which is the demise of the Democrat Party and what
we're seeing. And I one hundred percent agree with you

(01:04:35):
in regards to the older generation of Democrats. They do
not realize, and we've we've brought this point up multiple times.
They do not realize that the party that they grew
up supporting has completely flipped on its head. Along with
the fact that where the Democrats get it right, and
they have gotten it right for decades, is marketing. And
that's how they grab people. They have marketed marketed themselves

(01:04:58):
as the party of the underprivileged. They're they're the defend
They're the defender of the victims. They're the defender of
the the the the odd balls for lack of a
better term. And they have marketed they have marketed themselves
that way and they have gotten the sympathizers on their side.

(01:05:20):
And that's where they have been so successful is with
their marketing capabilities correct.

Speaker 8 (01:05:25):
And they have to keep looking for victims, and if
they can't find the victims, they'll make up the victim yep.
So we're all of a sudden, you know, trans stuff
is like the biggest you know, travesty of society. And
how dare all your people treat them like it's like
they have to make stuff up.

Speaker 6 (01:05:42):
Or they let them keep or they let them into
our country through the you know, through the the empty
borders for for four years and then they then make
that group of people the victims.

Speaker 8 (01:05:53):
But David, we're the victims.

Speaker 2 (01:05:54):
Yep.

Speaker 6 (01:05:54):
We're run short on time to keep those thoughts because
we'd love to talk to you on Wednesday too.

Speaker 8 (01:05:58):
Okay, great, thanks.

Speaker 5 (01:06:01):
You know, we've got to mention this. I did not
see this until I saw it on Facebook. The last
regular the last preseason game between the Tampa Bay Lightning
and the Florida Panthers. It ended with three hundred and
twenty two penalty minutes and sixteen ejections. Final score was
seven to nothing. The Panthers won over the Lightning. I
guess they played on Thursday and accumulated one hundred and

(01:06:23):
eighty six penalty minutes in a five to two Lightning
victory over the Panthers. I guess there was a cross
check and a punch on Tampa Bay's Brandon Hegel by
AJ Greer that I mean, this is insane. They have
had a lot of success in the league over the
last six years. It says John Cooper said, that's the
head coach of the Lightning, and I think anybody that's

(01:06:45):
been a part of this rival we would probably look
at this box score and not be surprised to be like,
I can't believe it's taken this long for something like
this to happen. The Lightning ended the game zero for
six on the power play. The Panthers scored four times
on twenty power playoffs opportunities. The NHL record for most
penalty minutes in a game between both teams is four

(01:07:06):
hundred and nineteen minutes, set by the Ottawa Senators and
the Flyers in March of two thousand and four and
the guy says, well, we really got to work on
our penalty kill seventeen kills. I don't think I've seen
that in a long time. I mean, this is there's video,
but I obviously we can't play that, but it's it is.
I guess they played it with AHL players and they

(01:07:28):
just went after the Panthers.

Speaker 6 (01:07:30):
Wow, that sounds more entertaining than the Tyson fight that
was on Netflix.

Speaker 5 (01:07:34):
And I guess there was a the Lightning scored a
goal or somebody scored a goal and was ejected from
the game, but somehow got back on the ice and
got an assist on a goal, so they discontinued to
they discounted the goal. I mean, it's this, This story
behind this is absolutely hysterical. I mean, you got to

(01:07:57):
read it, so just.

Speaker 7 (01:07:58):
Google share it, share it with me.

Speaker 6 (01:07:59):
I'll put it on her face, sage.

Speaker 4 (01:08:00):
I'll see if I can. I don't know how from this.

Speaker 6 (01:08:03):
Usually about this time we do celebrity birthdays. We got
one real quick. Elizabeth Sho if you remember that name,
the girlfriend in the original Karate Kid Adventures in Babysitting.

her she turns sixty two today and then also to
