Speaker 1 (00:01):
And stumbled to the kitchen through myself a couple of
ambition and your own and stretching chry to condol jumping
shower in the bloodstt COMF.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
You're listening to Saturday Night on This Circle on nightty
three WIBC working.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Welcome back to ninety three wid C, another edition of
Saturday Night on the Circle where I'm your host, Ethan
Hatcher happy to return after skipping out last week due
to a trip in Pennsylvania resolving long standing legal issues
that I am happy to report Producer Jack, I have
returned victorious. I think this was actually a problem that

(00:51):
predates you as my producer on this show. Is how
long this has been going on? It started Labor Day
of twenty two three. But I know I told you
about this where this rascally mechanic kept my vehicle for
thirteen months and I had to file a complaint with
the Attorney General and list a lawyer before he returned

(01:11):
it to me.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
Yeah, this has been going on for a while.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
M So I got it back after thirteen months. This
was late last September, after he had kept it for
a protracted period of time to supposedly perform the transmission
repair that I had paid him upfront to do. That
was the worst part, because he had asked for a
four thousand dollars down payment.

Speaker 5 (01:34):
I was down and out.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
I had few options at my disposal, being out of state,
and I trusted this mechanic, who seemingly had good reviews
on the Google machine, to perform the repairs. And then
it was just a carousel of excuses from that point
on up until the point of July the following year,
where I filed my complaint with the Attorney General and
enlisted the help of an attorney. Now, he returned the vehicle,

(01:58):
and I think he thought he was going to be
in the clear at that point, but I did not
feel made whole. In fact, as soon as I got
the vehicle back, I had to take it back to
a local mechanic because he didn't perform the clutch repairs
that he had initially promised to do, so there were
still more repairs that were necessary to the vehicle.

Speaker 5 (02:19):
Finally, this culminated.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
In a ruling from the Small Claims Court, a judgment
in my favor of six three hundred and seventy dollars.
Most of the I think seventy two hundred and some
change that myself and my lawyer had asked for in restitution.
That being said, I would say, it appears the judge
did not buy the BS excuses of mischievous mechanic anymore
than I did to give a judgment in that amount,

(02:43):
wouldn't you.

Speaker 5 (02:43):
Agree, Producer Jack?

Speaker 4 (02:45):
Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
So it covers the cost of repairs, It covers a
fraction of cost of the attorney fees. But at the
end of the day, you know what this represents. It
represents a moral victory. It represents that although the gears
of justice grind slowly, they do in fact work in
favor of you as long as you have the facts
on your side, which I did, so I can at

(03:07):
least rest easy knowing that I came out on the
other side victorious.

Speaker 5 (03:10):
Pretty happy about that.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
Yeah, it's awesome, congratulations.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
But I return home, Producer Jack, to enormous frustration because
this past Monday was supposed to be the first day
of DPW unveiling their transformation of Michigan and New York streets, which,
if anybody's listened to this show for a period of
time knows, I am an enormous opponent of and the
disaster is just as bad as I had envisaged. You see,

(03:35):
Producer Jack, Michigan and New York Streets were arterial.

Speaker 5 (03:39):
Through fares for the city. They were one way.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Streets that crossed from the east to the west side,
highly efficient flow of traffic. It allowed you to go
from one side to the city to the other side
in about twenty minutes. It was highly efficient. That's all
gone now thanks to the brainiacs of the Department of
Public Works in Indianapolis and the anti car activist who
have currently bent their ear because they've turned these one

(04:03):
way streets into two way streets that are now also
incredibly narrow thanks to the double wide bike lane and
these ridiculous isolated medians that they've installed that the city
now has to purchase specialty equipment Producer Jack, just to
plow the snow in the bike lanes that nobody uses.

(04:24):
That's also eaten up half of available parking on New
York and Michigan Street just to facilitate this is utterly maddening,
and the narrowing of the lanes make it incredibly difficult
for larger vehicles like school buses, garbage trucks, box trucks,
regular buses and other larger vehicles that make this city

(04:45):
function and makes it incredibly difficult for them to navigate
those streets effectively, all to appease a relatively small group
of anti car activists who are engaging in this campaign
of traffic calming around the city. And when you ever
see a head scratcher, it makes you question the reasoning
of what's going on or what these civil engineers are

(05:09):
coming up with. That's usually the result of this traffic calming,
anti car activism that is leeching its way into society.
It's the thing that is putting giving us these dedicated
bus rapid transit bus lanes because nobody rides the bus,
but the goal is to edge out cars ultimately producer Jack.

(05:30):
They hate cars and they hate the freedom that car
ownership imparts, the freedom of movement that you get, and
when they control your movement, they make it easier to
control you as an individual. That's why they're trying with
all of their might to take your car from you
and get you on a bicycle or get you on
a bus, because they do not value the freedom of

(05:51):
movements that car ownership imparts. Thanks for listening to Saturday
Night on the Circle ninety three WIBC. And this makes
it a special maddening because not only is the city
destroying what had been a feature which was an easy
commute and easy navigation of the metropolis, but they are
failing to maintain basic law and order Over on Luger

(06:13):
Plaza right across from the Transit Center that they want
everybody to use. They've turned it into a basic basically
an open air drug den because of all these hooligan
pigeons that always congregating on the plaza there. This was
reported by Ryan Hedrick after we had a couple of
three or more overdoses on Thursday night, again right across

(06:34):
from the Transit center. Why would people use the transit
center if it's surrounded by tweaking out criminals.

Speaker 5 (06:42):
It's nuts.

Speaker 6 (06:43):
Three more people near the Transit center overdose on drugs
on Thursday night. And I'm talking to people here in
downtown Indianapolis.

Speaker 7 (06:51):
I'm standing on Luger Plaza.

Speaker 6 (06:53):
This guy I talked to right across the street from
the Transit Center since he is seeing.

Speaker 7 (06:57):
A lot of people og and nobody's talking about it like.

Speaker 8 (07:00):
A little bit more on the rise than usual. So
it's just kind of being time, terrible to skill. A
lot of people just not being able to just kind
of be healthy.

Speaker 7 (07:08):
I's wrong which rugture they using gonna here?

Speaker 5 (07:11):
It's a comic.

Speaker 8 (07:12):
It could be an assortment. I mean people I can
call by the way, the asset. I mean, people can
be using them whatever.

Speaker 6 (07:17):
Sharon says, it doesn't matter if it be Metro police
are in this building behind me and people are using
on cameras monitored by the police.

Speaker 7 (07:26):
He says, there's just no consequences.

Speaker 9 (07:29):
That just said.

Speaker 10 (07:30):
I mean the police can't do nothing about it.

Speaker 4 (07:32):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 10 (07:33):
It's just hard be for home. It's strong got drugs.
You can't make nobody change their life. So if they
want to keep doing this, I mean we're gonna do
keep locking them up. They're gonna do get up and
do it again. They got they need more resources, they
need more help. So they bright here pleading for help
in front of them.

Speaker 9 (07:48):
That's how I look at it.

Speaker 10 (07:50):
They ain't scared of them, and they feel like they
ain't doing nothing wrong.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
No, he's the time most not shunned this sting, getting high,
tweaking out, using hard drugs in public and having the
audacity to feel that they're not doing anything wrong. This
isn't a lack of ability on the part of IMPD.
This is a lack of willingness on the part of

(08:16):
city leadership. And I'm looking at Mayor Joe hoggs at
and I'm especially looking at Prosecutor Ryan Mears to enforce
basic law and order in the city. Their primary constituency
are these criminal elements that they seek to coddle and
the bleeding hearts that support that kind of behavior. And

(08:36):
it's gross that they value their rights and privileges to
cause mayhem in the city more than your basic safety
and freedom to move about the city without being threatened
by these tweaking out maniacs in a public square. Again,
this is right across from the transit station. This isn't
under a bridge, This isn't like a shady industrial part

(08:58):
of the city. This is in the heart of the town,
right next to the center township what used to be
the small claims Court building, the seat of city government,
and a police station.

Speaker 5 (09:08):
For God's sakes, this is absolutely ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
So it is not a lack of ability from the city,
is a lack of seriousness and willingness on the part
of city leadership to enforce basic law and order and
the civil society. And that's why you see this city
literally crumbling around you at the foundations, whether it's tweaking
out drug addicts right across from the transit center next
to a police station, or whether it's these homeless encampments

(09:34):
that have now suddenly sprung up in residential neighborhoods and
the city also unwilling to make action on that as well.
Stay tuned to ninety three WIBC. Coming up next, we'll
also talk about out of control beef prices and how
that's affecting your ability to put food on the dinner table.

Speaker 5 (09:53):
Tell you all about it coming up next.

Speaker 11 (09:56):
But if I finish all of my chores and you've finished, ye,
then tonight on a party like it's sixty to.

Speaker 12 (10:01):
Ninety nine.

Speaker 13 (10:04):
Live.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
This is Saturday Night on the Circle. Oh ninety three WYBC.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
Welcome back to Saturday Night on the Circle and get
ready because tomorrow is your last day to officially attend
the Indiana State Fair, one of my favorite events, a
highlight of every year, nothing but happy memories. Tell me,
producer Jack, have you had the opportunity to make your
way out to thirty eighth Street and enjoy the Indiana
State Fair. Ah hoo's your tradition. I haven't this year, blasphemous.

(10:39):
What do you mean you haven't made it out this year?
You got to go to the State Fair every year,
my friend, Well, tell me you got one day left
to go. Surely you can squeeze in a little time
on a Sunday.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
I probably won't go, so disappointing.

Speaker 5 (10:51):
What's wrong with you?

Speaker 3 (10:52):
I mean, look, I love going to the State Fair,
my favorite thing to do. And look, I freely admit
you can. You can look at me on the YouTube street.
I am not a fit man. I'm a fat man,
and I let myself turn into a glutton on the
State Fair day. I like to eat my way around
the fair, all the fair food. It's like one day
a year that I treat myself, and that's the best
thing to do.

Speaker 5 (11:12):
They got all the sweet stuff. I'll tell you, I'll
tell you what I had. I ate my way.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
I think it was about eighty dollars grand total, which
I don't think is too bad. I went on a
two dollars Tuesday. If you're gonna go, that's the day
to go.

Speaker 5 (11:24):
Is discount day.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
It had turned into a three dollars Thursday thanks to inflation,
but then they brought it back this year.

Speaker 5 (11:31):
How often is that you.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
Actually get a price rollback, producer Jackie, Do you see
that too often? At the grocery store things were expensive,
now they got cheaper again. Yeah, it doesn't happen very often,
but it happened at the Indiana State Fair. They gave
us a reprieve two dollars Tuesday return, and I took
full advantage. I got two dollars dippin' dots, two dollars
pork tenderloin slider, a two dollar mini elephant ear, two

(11:52):
dollars maple root beer, a two dollars corn dog, six
dollars maple candies, eight dollars lemonade slushy, eighteen dollars sandwich.
And then I took home with me an eighteen dollars
a turkey leg and twenty dollars for two bags of
cattle corn.

Speaker 4 (12:07):
Oh that sounds good.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
Yeah, it's phenomenal. Man, don't miss out. You still got
one day left to go. It's a Hoosier tradition. And
enjoy yourself, you know, said a few dollars aside. If
you get nothing else, make sure to grab the ribbi
sandwich from the Smokehouse next to the Pioneer Village. They
just set up shopped there a couple of years ago,
but I think by far they have the best ribbi
sandwich in the entire State Fair?

Speaker 5 (12:29):
Did I mean?

Speaker 3 (12:30):
And you know, I didn't try any of the There
were more than I think forty new foods that were
debuted around the vendors. I didn't go for any of that.
It's the classics that really, you know, get me, because
you know, after you ate all that, I didn't really
have any appetites to try anything new. And if I
got to go to an event, like I sure, I
enjoy experiencing new things, but I also really enjoy getting

(12:54):
to experience things that I already love and knowing that
I'm going to enjoy them again. So it doesn't bother me,
you know, just engaging in tradition when I eat my
way around the State Fair, I don't necessarily need to
try all the new stuff. And some of the new
stuff isn't that great. Yeah, Like I'm not going to
try a pickle beer, no pass. I don't like pickles

(13:16):
under normal circumstances, much less in beer form. But make
sure to check out the State Fair. Tomorrow is the
last day a proud Hoosier tradition. If you haven't had
the ability to go, maybe it's because the price of
beef has gotten so darn unaffordable. While it was in
Pennsylvania producer check, it costs like thirty dollars a steak

(13:36):
just to grab a couple of New York strips. Now,
granted they were, you know, kind of thick cuts. They
were an inch thick and about a pound apiece.

Speaker 5 (13:43):
But sixty dollars thirty dollars a steak that is outrageous.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Now, you know, we were shopping to Giant grocers and
they're kind of a you know, higher mid end grocery store.
So you know, granted, price inflated just a little bit,
but you used to be able to get three steaks
for thirty dollars back when I was a kid.

Speaker 5 (14:01):
Now you're talking about thirty dollars just for one.

Speaker 3 (14:03):
This was a phenomenon, and now even ground beef is
going going for ten or more dollars, depending on how
quality the cut is. This was something that was noted
by Wall Street Maverick on the Twitter machine.

Speaker 9 (14:16):
Hey, what's up, America.

Speaker 14 (14:17):
I'm here at a grocery store once again. We're checking
out meat prices to see how much you're being ranked financially.
All right, so let's check out the meat counter, or
shall we? Looking like nine dollars and forty nine cents
for some burger patties. Looking like we're doing thirty dollars
for three pounds right there.

Speaker 15 (14:37):
Because that's almost ten dollars a pound.

Speaker 4 (14:40):
That's nice.

Speaker 15 (14:40):
We got eight ninety nine out pound.

Speaker 12 (14:43):
Look at that these wang.

Speaker 9 (14:45):
Thanks for seven bucks.

Speaker 15 (14:47):
The long one's there. Twenty here's some of the better
lead meat for ten.

Speaker 5 (14:51):
Forty nine you've got being ranked.

Speaker 9 (14:53):
Up the sun.

Speaker 15 (14:54):
Then we got steaks twenty dollars twenty twenty sixteen, twenty three,
twenty two. This is becoming out of out of place
in our character. Twenty dollars? Are you kidding me? Look
at this point, I mean you could just yeah, it's ridiculous.

Speaker 16 (15:10):
No God, no, God, please, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
Beef prices are pushing beef out of the price point
of the many of the American diets, like we're going
to be leaning a lot more on pork products. A
lot more on chicken products just to get quality protein
in the diet. And that's a sad state of affairs
that we've largely brought on ourselves. You know why, Producer Jack,
because we are gobbling up arable agricultural property with these

(15:44):
ridiculous green energy product projects, you know, the solar panels,
the solar plants, the wind turbines, or these ridiculous data
centers and warehouses that are going up around Indianapolis. You
can't eat a data center, need a warehouse. And if
you are shipping all of your beef products in from
other countries, you are going to jack up the prices,

(16:07):
especially when the president is playing the tariff game on
imports and adding an arbitrary increase on the price of
importing goods. And so yeah, that's going to have a
negative effect on the beef market in the economy here
in the United States. And that's quite unfortunate because many
of us are beef eating people, and it is now

(16:27):
pricing it out of the diet for far too many Americans.
So inflation not fully conquered, even though the economy is
far better than it was under President Biden. We have
another scandal that's brewing around here in Indianapolis. A mystery
that has plagued New Crown Cemetery on the southeast side.

(16:48):
They made a post on August twelfth announcing that thieves
had absconded with more than one hundred and seventy thousand
dollars worth of bronze vases and plaques from gravesites.

Speaker 5 (16:59):
This is this is some pretty gross stuff. Producer Jack.

Speaker 17 (17:02):
Cemeteries are known as a place of honor and respect,
but that's not the feeling at New Crome Cemetery right now.

Speaker 18 (17:09):
This is the destruction that someone is doing to our
bronze bases.

Speaker 17 (17:14):
A Metro police report shows two hundred and forty six
bronze faces we're stolen from the cemetery worth one hundred
and seventy one thousand dollars to bronze headstone markers were
taken to.

Speaker 18 (17:24):
Where they have lifted them up off the foundation and
they are cutting the screw that attaches them and trying
to get the actual bronze memorial out. The majority of
these markers are actually from veterans.

Speaker 17 (17:38):
Linda Gellette is the cemetery's general manager. She says some
are irreplaceable.

Speaker 18 (17:42):
We have barrels out here from the eighteen hundreds.

Speaker 17 (17:45):
But it's not the first time it's happened. At New
Crown last year someone stole one hundred and fifty bronze faces.

Speaker 18 (17:50):
It's currently a problem within the whole United States that
these are being stolen and taken for scrap metal.

Speaker 17 (17:58):
Jellette says, right now, the cemetery doesn't know when or
even how someone stole all the vases.

Speaker 18 (18:02):
This is sacred ground where families have been trusted us
and we take that very seriously and when something like
this happens, we are distraught. Also, we want to find
a solution.

Speaker 7 (18:17):
You're brandamn right.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
This is a larger problem than just a few vases
being absconded with in a graveyard. And I'm sure the
families of those affected are completely distraught and feel utterly disrespected,
and they should because as a society collectively, we have
lost respect for beauty, for architecture, for culture, for each other.
That's the only thing that's going that is at the

(18:41):
root of somebody's motivation to steal all these bronze bases.
Or I guess maybe they just want to buy a
stake because the price of steak.

Speaker 5 (18:49):
Is so unaffordable. Then they're going to steal some bronze.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
But the other thing about this is, Producer Jack, if
you try and sell this, if you offload this at
a scrap dealer, any kind of honest dealer is going
to flag this right away because not everybody is going
to show up with a truckload of antique bronze vases
and funeral plaques. So the only kind of dealer that's
going to trade in this will be unscrupulous, and they're

(19:13):
not going to even give you full, full fair market value,
like it's one hundred and seventy dollars to buy new
bronze vases to replace that which was taken away, but
scrap value is considerably less. And if you're going to
deal it through an unscrupulous dealer who's not going to
report you for thievery, then you're probably getting pennies on
the dollar for that. So who knows what they made

(19:34):
away with in total, but it was a fraction of
the devastation that they inflicted on the family of those affected,
and certainly, you know what a disrespectful thing to do.
I don't believe in ghosts, but I hope those guys
get haunted.

Speaker 5 (19:51):
Producer Jack for sure.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Stay tuned in ninety three WIBC. Coming up next the
Sound Dump. Don't miss it.

Speaker 13 (20:07):
All the flowers for a couple of hours on a
full night.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
You are listening to Saturday Night on the Circle, a
nighty Tree WYPC.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back, where once again it's time
to don your faithful hazmat suit while we wade through
the sludge of another week in news. We'll begin by
scrutinizing our neighbors across the pond, who are now combating
the plague of thought crime on the British Isles. Black
community leaders in Cincinnati are calling for the white victims
of a racist mob to be charged with a felony

(20:44):
for allegedly baiting them into the attack. And also at
Kansas run state funded grocery store shutters its doors amid
empty shelves and rampant thievery. All this and more for
another edition of the Sound Dump.

Speaker 12 (20:57):
I'll take you close.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
It job. It's the Saturday Night Sound Dump on ninety
three wy PC.

Speaker 13 (21:07):
Thank you so.

Speaker 19 (21:11):
You decide how you are to lie?

Speaker 20 (21:15):
Oh my god, it's.

Speaker 3 (21:20):
Welcome back to ninety three w I b C. You're
listening to Saturday Night on the Circle. Find my podcast
on WIBC dot com, as well as my personal podcasting
page Saturday Night on the Circle dot Fireside dot f M.
I'm your bespectacled curmudgeon Ethan Hatcher. And that's producer Jack
Peep on the board, pushing the buttons and doing the

(21:40):
things to make the show function. We begin by scrutinizing
our neighbors across the pond. Producer Jack, You'll never believe this.
They actually have a squad of patrol officers going after
people for cat calling. They're dressing women in spandex and
sending them running through the streets to give tickets to

(22:02):
cat callers. That's the state of the United Kingdom.

Speaker 9 (22:05):
These women aren't friends out for a run.

Speaker 21 (22:08):
They're actually undercover police officers taking to the streets in
Surrey as part of a new operation trying to stop
people cat calling and harassing female runners.

Speaker 18 (22:20):
We get hold chat the stair in the hanging out
of the window just to look at us, and it
just it's so so so.

Speaker 21 (22:26):
Prevalent, and police teams are ready to intervene. The moment
the officers are beaped out, followed or shouted out, pulling
people over.

Speaker 20 (22:38):
Those kind of behaviors may not be criminal offenses in themselves,
but they still need to be addressed. And of course,
the people that are likely to commit those kind of behaviors,
you know, they may then go on to commit more
serious offenses or more serious behaviors. Afternoon, officer, chap, I'm
enjoying a cup of tea on this warm Saturday.

Speaker 4 (22:58):
I seek world war till.

Speaker 5 (23:02):
No, not a minute.

Speaker 22 (23:03):
Well Elizabeth's name, Oh no, you're not using a sourceser.

Speaker 7 (23:07):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
Now, they don't have the same constitutional protections that we do.
But I would challenge this. The officer said it in himself.
Did you hear that, Well, it's not exactly a crime
what they're doing. I just to can't co a attractive
woman that's jogging down the road. Now, don't follow people,
don't make people feel unsafe. That's absolutely unacceptable. But I mean,

(23:35):
if the even the officer is having to admit that
this isn't actually a crime, but then people want bass shipta,
will want to create to commit more serious crimes like die. Well,
it's not a later date and that's not a crime.
So we are wasting law enforcement resources here, and we
are going after individuals at a time when the United Kingdom,

(23:57):
last I checked, they have a lot of knife crime
that's going on, people getting stabbed, people getting acid thrown
in their face.

Speaker 5 (24:03):
And then also you got.

Speaker 3 (24:05):
Underage sex trafficking rings that are going on right across
the sea in England. I think law enforcement resources would
be better times focus on that, don't you stopping that
kind of abuse? Setting people out to bait people in
cat calling women and spandex.

Speaker 4 (24:23):
Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
And if anybody's honking at it is probably because they're
jogging in the street. Get out of the road, get
daft bents. Thanks for listening to ninety three WIBC Saturday
night on the Circle. Elsewhere in the United States you
have black community leaders who are actually calling for the
arrest and charge of the white victims of the racist

(24:44):
mob who attacked them. Of course, six individuals now in
custody charged in the assault against that couple, and the
black community leaders are very upset with this. They would
like the couple charged as well for allegedly baiting people
into attacking them. This is some very twisted logic.

Speaker 23 (25:04):
Six individuals were charged with aggravated assault, which is a felony.
The white guy insided or urged six other people to
commit a felony.

Speaker 24 (25:14):
The method by which this situation has been handled raises
serious questions as to whether there's bias involved in the investigation.
It also brings into questions the possibility of your lack
of integrity and whether there's something else to hide.

Speaker 3 (25:37):
I'm not sure what else can be said other than
these people are living in a fantasy where they believe
the victims of an attack are the individuals that should
be charged. That is a warped way of thinking and
shows you how thoroughly the morals of these individuals who
are congregating in churches have been corrupted by the victim
mentality pedaled by leftists everywhere. Thanks for listening to ninety

(25:58):
three WIBC Saturday Night on the Circle. Another failed vision
of leftist utopianism was the state run grocery store in
Kansas City. Some fresh grocers have shutted their doors after
empty shelves and rampant theft, now leaving a community that
had relied on this stolen groceries to survive leave searching

(26:22):
elsewhere for a meal for months.

Speaker 25 (26:24):
The store hasn't fully been stocked. Still, person after person
comes to buy groceries.

Speaker 26 (26:29):
I think the previous operator for the years they put
into that, as well as their predecessor.

Speaker 9 (26:35):
And now we'll try to do all we can.

Speaker 26 (26:36):
To make sure that this works.

Speaker 25 (26:38):
Mayor Quentin Lucas is disappointed. He met with the store
operator two weeks ago for hours trying to come.

Speaker 7 (26:43):
Up with a solution.

Speaker 26 (26:44):
I know there are different challenges to how grocery store
can operate. Part of that challenge is that the city
happy to be a partner, but there's always a limit
to what we will invest as well.

Speaker 25 (26:54):
It comes down to money. The city owns the building
and has invested nearly twenty nine million in the store. Still,
the Sunfresh was losing money.

Speaker 24 (27:02):
All of a sudden, he rolled out here this money
and he'd gone, And they're saying that in not coming.

Speaker 25 (27:06):
That all neighbors know is there's no food here now
and they wish that wasn't the case.

Speaker 24 (27:10):
I like to know what could be done, maybe to
bring it back, no offense, but it sounds like that's
a fa fank comedy.

Speaker 5 (27:16):
Gobbledy gook twenty nine million dollars to run this grocery store.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Producer Jack I dare say if Walmart or Kroger wasted
twenty nine million dollars on any one of their locations,
they'd be going bankrupt too. It has nothing to do
with the difficulties of running a grocery store. You're the
mayor trying to give excuses there. And it has everything
to do with the inefficiency and outright corruption of government
run anything. This is exactly what played out in the

(27:45):
socialist heuscape that was Communist Russia. Any state run entity
experiences the same lackluster service and eventual disastrous downfall, and
it's been repeated again. Twenty nine sorry niney twenty nine
million dollars down the hole for a grocery store with
empty shelves. Where did it all go, Producer Jack? It

(28:08):
went in the pockets of bureaucrats is where it went,
and to sustain community of thieves, which again seems to
be the priority of the modern day leftist. Thanks for
listening to ninety three WIBC. Another incident this week, this
was this was crazy. I'm not sure if you saw
this yet. The Democrat candidate for governor of South Carolina,

(28:31):
Mullens McLeod mcclude. He was caught in Charleston, South Carolina,
ranting and raving in his underwear at the top of
his lungs by police officers, and he refused to identify himself,
only referring to himself as God and Superman, and during
his likely substance fueled rant, he also threatened candidate. His

(28:53):
opponent in the.

Speaker 5 (28:54):
Race, Nancy Mase said, he kicker teeth in what a guy.

Speaker 24 (28:58):
Hey, because I only promise that I will not do
this once I started this campaign, because I can't.

Speaker 5 (29:07):
Do this once I'll started campaign.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
You you can better tell the world right now and.

Speaker 13 (29:12):
What you did when the Wall of Congress.

Speaker 10 (29:15):
Was the gray sin ever committed.

Speaker 12 (29:17):
In the history of this station.

Speaker 7 (29:20):
Where you went and glue me.

Speaker 20 (29:22):
I'm worth dog whistle.

Speaker 27 (29:26):
Close a doll Trump's house and you thought the.

Speaker 15 (29:29):
System was so corrupted the president himself.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
Would no better take you out.

Speaker 7 (29:35):
You're not anywhere wising vc a man.

Speaker 14 (29:37):
The way of President Donald Trump.

Speaker 28 (29:39):
Is because I'm telling you, my friend, he look kicking.

Speaker 12 (29:43):
You don't give a what your gender is.

Speaker 5 (29:46):
So let's go back to the tea.

Speaker 12 (29:47):
I don't kick everywhere of them in all right?

Speaker 17 (29:50):
Want to kill a man?

Speaker 26 (29:51):
You ain't any dentists find me a dentists.

Speaker 24 (29:53):
When they're gonna put all your teeth before you swallow,
you do me.

Speaker 12 (30:00):
Now, this man do this.

Speaker 24 (30:01):
You don't get anovoking to get swanged and with the
horse for your teeth.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
If they not probably saz to the teeth, you don't
get your teeth.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
And deaank you but all working at him.

Speaker 9 (30:14):
Boy, that escalated quickly.

Speaker 29 (30:17):
I mean that really got out of hand fast.

Speaker 5 (30:20):
It jumped up a notch.

Speaker 9 (30:22):
It did, didn't it?

Speaker 5 (30:23):
Oh my goodness, producer Jack, that guy has a temper problem.

Speaker 12 (30:26):
What what he say?

Speaker 17 (30:27):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (30:27):
Yeah, yeah, he's not gonna win. But they've already nominated him,
is the thing. Now Democrats are asking him to step down.
They want they want to find another candidate to slot
in there at the last minute. Because this guy's political
career is done. All you gotta do is just run
that on a loop for any political commercial point. God,

(30:47):
this was more than an hour. I wish I could
have played more more than an hour of him ranting
and raving.

Speaker 5 (30:53):
And you heard the door in the background. This is
him in the back of a police car. He's out
of his mind.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
And we haven't they haven't released the best of my knowledge,
what substance it was, but that's got to be substance
abused alcohol cocaine. Officers thought it was some kind of
upper like you know, PCP or meth or something like that.
But again they hadn't hadn't done any testing yet. That
was just speculating based on the behavior that was exhibited
by mister McLeod there.

Speaker 4 (31:19):
Yeah it's wild.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
Yeah he's done. He's done for sure.

Speaker 3 (31:24):
But you know, as much as I would like to
say that this is a Democrat proclivity, only, of course,
we got our own allegedly substance abusing mayor right here
in the city of Indianapolis. But you know, Republicans they're
just as guilty of this stuff. All these political types
are are really psychologically unbalanced individuals, and we got a

(31:45):
glimpse of it there. Thanks for listening to ninety three WIBC.
John Stossel actually had published a piece discussing Indiana recently.
This was praising the city of Carmel for all of
their misbegotten roundabouts. And I got a bone to pick
with mister Stossel because I don't think he's driving on
these things.

Speaker 29 (32:04):
The town with the most roundabouts in America, Carmel, Indiana.

Speaker 9 (32:09):
Its mayor is Jim Braindrey.

Speaker 29 (32:11):
You got one hundred and thirty three of them in
your little town.

Speaker 9 (32:14):
It's crazy.

Speaker 29 (32:16):
We've converted almost all over our traffic lights to roundabouts
because we saved lives. Roundabouts do save lives. This study
found roundabouts had slightly more crashes, but many fewer deaths
and injuries. It's because of the angle of the cars.

Speaker 9 (32:30):
Instead of a t bonb you a site slip.

Speaker 29 (32:32):
Also, because cars slow down, you see somebody do something,
you're about to have an accident, you have more time
to break. Slowing people down, though, makes it seem like
it'll take longer for cars to get through intersection, it
really doesn't. The statistics are that a roundabout moves fifty
percent more traffic than a traffic lights drive. The show
MythBusters did their own tests and confirmed that compared to

(32:56):
stop signs.

Speaker 5 (32:57):
The roundabout is a more efficient way to move cars
through an innercy.

Speaker 9 (33:02):
I don't believe when.

Speaker 5 (33:03):
You have a medium amount of traffic.

Speaker 3 (33:04):
Perhaps and there are some situations that a traffic circle
is perfectly acceptable and conducive. For a great example being
by the New Justice Center on the southeast side of Indianapolis,
near the vicinity of Rural and Southeastern there was like
a five way interchange there that was very confusing, hard
to distinguish which stoplight was actually yours. And that's now

(33:27):
been solved by a roundabout, a perfect implementation, but not
every intersection like they have chosen to do on the
north side of Indianapolis. And anybody knows that the promises
of it not impacting commute time or a bunch of bullpucky,
because if you have driven on the north side around
rush hour, it is always bumper to bumper trying to

(33:47):
get off of the interstate. It takes you an hour
forty five minutes or more just to just to navigate
the roads up there on the north side. And part
of that is because people are driving in circles on
the roundabouts and they're going and stuck there. It is
not a solution for every intersection. Sorry, so I think
John Stossel is mistaken there, although I do love many

(34:08):
of his broadcasts. Stay tuned to the one and only
ninety three WIBC. You're listening to Saturday Night on the Circle.
More on the way.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
If you're listening to Saturday Night on this Circle on
Night WYPC.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
Welcome back to Saturday Night on the Circle, producer Jack.
This is the passing of an icon, the ending of
an era. After thirty four years of dutiful service, AOL
is now saying that they are ending their dial up
service across America.

Speaker 9 (34:52):
AOL says it is ending dial up service.

Speaker 7 (34:55):
The news here is it.

Speaker 9 (34:56):
AOL still has dial up service.

Speaker 11 (35:00):
Nineteen nineties and it was the way to connect to
the Internet, with at its peak, more than twenty million subscribers.

Speaker 19 (35:06):
After downloading the program, you'd click on the AOL icon,
choose from a series of local phone numbers, and if
you didn't get a business signal, you'd hear some irritating
screeches and.

Speaker 9 (35:17):
Then you've got mail. Hey, I've got mail, Laila.

Speaker 11 (35:21):
You were online and no one else and home could
use the phone.

Speaker 19 (35:25):
But then came broadband and Wi Fi, and most users
said goodbye to dialog.

Speaker 9 (35:31):
AOL says dial Up.

Speaker 19 (35:32):
We'll hang it up on September thirtieth.

Speaker 9 (35:35):
Goodbye, goodbye, old friend.

Speaker 5 (35:37):
May the folks be with you.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
Oooh boy, it makes me feel old. That was how
we used the internet back in the nineties. I remember
it well and for me up through the two thousands
as well, because my mother was very cheap and we
were probably the last family in the neighborhood to get
DSL service once that had been released. But yeah, just
connected through Juno. It made the screeching sound you ever

(35:59):
gonna use dial up Internet?

Speaker 5 (36:00):
Producer Jack Quear or was that before your time?

Speaker 4 (36:04):
A little bit before my time?

Speaker 5 (36:05):
A little bit before your time?

Speaker 4 (36:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (36:06):
I mean by the early two thousands, pretty much everybody
had started adopting faster speeds for or DSL instead of
the rickety old dial up internet. Just crazy how the
passage of time works. And now we find ourselves at
the end of an era after thirty four years. Thanks
for listening to Saturday Night on the Circle at stay

(36:29):
tuned for hour two. We're going to talk a little
bit about the Trump Putin meeting in Alaska, Who won?

Speaker 5 (36:36):
What was it all about? We'll tell you more an
hour two. Stay tuned.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
You were listening to Saturday Night on this CIRCLEYPC.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
Welcome back to Saturday Night on the Circle hour two
of the program, and if you missed a moment, make
sure to catch the podcast uploaded to ninety three WIBC
as well as Saturday Night on the circle dot Fireside
dot f M. That's my personal podcasting page. We're streaming
live on the YouTube machine seven to nine every Saturday night.
I always like to see your happy faces in the chat,

(37:26):
and if you haven't done so already, make sure to
smash the like button helps us out in the algorithm.
And if we get to fifty, then producer Jack Scramall
is going to give him a pat on the head
and a Werther's hard original candy, very very hard earned.

Speaker 5 (37:40):
Thanks for listening to the show.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
This segment, oh yeah, and later in the hour, of course,
are regularly scheduled Conspiracy Corner with producer car also stay
tuned for that. This segment, though, I wanted to cover
the peace accords for between Putin and Trump that took
place in Alaska on Friday. No clear victor as of yet.
It would seem that Russia is definitely going to stand

(38:04):
on their desire to take those portions of the Dunboss
region and for Ukraine to yield a portion of their
territory to Russia. I think it is unlikely that any
ceasefire or peace talks will happen without some sort of
concession along those lines. And also Vladimir Putin while he
was at the summit, trolled leftists who were completely irate

(38:28):
when he said that had President had Donald Trump won
the twenty twenty election, the Ukraine War would never have
even started.

Speaker 16 (38:36):
I'd like to remind you that in twenty twenty two
in the company, during the last contact with the previous administration,
I tried to convince my previous American colleague should not
the situation, should not be sure the point of no
return when it would come to hostilities. And I said

(38:58):
it quite directly back then. This is a big mistake
Trump today when President Trump saying that the way if
he was the president back then, there will be no war,
and I'm quite sure that it would indeed be sold.

Speaker 9 (39:12):
I can confirm that the film.

Speaker 16 (39:14):
And I think that overall Trump from me and President
Trump have built a very good, the business like and
trustworthy contact. And I have every reason to believe that
moving down this path doing we can't come to the
end of the conflict in Ukraine.

Speaker 24 (39:34):
Join with all combined strength, we can end this conflict
and bring all to the galaxy.

Speaker 3 (39:44):
The ultimate winner here is the military industrial complex. Because
I because if Donald Trump wanted to end the war tomorrow.
All I'd have to do is say that we are
not continuing to send missiles to Ukraine to fund their
war effort. This is all on the backs of the
American taxpayer and the American military industrial complex that they
are even able to keep the fight against Vladimir Putin going.

(40:07):
So the ultimate winner is the American military industrial complex.
And you need look no further than the fact that
Ukraine was excluded in Ukrainian peace talks to know that
the real players here are between Russia and the United States.
Ukraine is an incidental and secondary feature of the Ukrainian conflict. Here,

(40:27):
this is a negotiation between two leaders, and at this
point it seems likely just because Russia can outlast can
outlast the United States, when human lives are of no consequence,
then they can just run out the clock until the
opposition decides it is time to sue for peace, which
would appear is the strategy here here in Indiana, of course,

(40:52):
we have a continuing scandal unfolding in Lieutenant Governor Micah
Beckwith's office.

Speaker 5 (40:57):
He also signaled his.

Speaker 3 (40:58):
Support for the White House push to redistrict Indiana, removing
to Democrat congressional seats and making turning them theoretically into
nine congressional Republican districts. Here in the state of Indiana.
If they were to engage in a special session and
redraw the districts between census years, this would trigger a

(41:21):
tit for tat conflict across the United States, and I
think Republicans may stand more to lose if they trigger
Democrats reprisal through redistricting. In this case, I think that
gaining two seats ultimately is meaningless in the Congress. And furthermore,
there's no reason to reward Republicans who as of now

(41:43):
control all three branches of government. They control the Senate,
they control the House, even though these are slim majorities,
and then they also control the Presidency. And still it's
not enough then to reward them by gerrymandering the districts
seems unwise and uncalled for. But also there's been a
AI porn scandal that's been brewing in the office office

(42:05):
of Lieutenant Governor Micah beckwith have.

Speaker 5 (42:07):
You heard of this, Producer Jack.

Speaker 3 (42:09):
It involves a video of a state lawmaker's wife that
was allegedly altered and then shared in the Lieutenant Governor's
office by some of his staffers.

Speaker 4 (42:20):
I think you talked about this a couple of weeks ago.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
Yeah, it's been unfolding over the last couple of weeks.
Lieutenant Governor beck With continues to maintain that the video
simply does not exist.

Speaker 5 (42:32):
It does not exist.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
Not only did none of his staff ever engage in
the viewing or sharing of such a video, but such
a video does not exist. According to Lieutenant Governor beck With,
he's drawing a line in the sand.

Speaker 12 (42:45):
So I learned about this Saturday. So I got a
call from one of my staffers and he said, hey,
a treasurer's office and former employee in the treasure's office
was contacted by a journalist who said that the treasurer's
office in my office were involved in that. And so
so we took it seriously. Obviously, you know, we're not
gonna we're not gonna sit back and just say, oh,

(43:05):
that's not there's nothing there. We took it seriously because
obviously that would be uh, there's no tolerance for that.
Someone would be fired instantly if that was going on
in our office. But look into it, did our internal investigations.

Speaker 9 (43:17):
The more we look.

Speaker 12 (43:18):
Into it, the like the more we realize like there's
there's literally nothing here. There's no video. Nobody's ever seen
this video that we can find, Like, yeah, anybody, like
nobody even knows.

Speaker 5 (43:30):
That this video is like the deep Bake video you mean.

Speaker 12 (43:33):
Yeah, debate, yeah baked video. So not Yeah.

Speaker 9 (43:37):
No, I've to this day have not.

Speaker 12 (43:39):
Seen anyone that talked with anyone that's ever even seen it,
let alone seen the video.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
This is a strategic mistake on the part of the
Lieutenant Governor to make a falsifiable claim that the video
does not exist, because all it takes to prove that
statement incorrect is too, of course, show the video, the
existence of the video, which is currently being investigated by
both a grand jury and the Premarian County Prosecutor. And

(44:08):
we hear the Lieutenant Governor in this same clip with
Woo's Kayla Blakely I believe was her name, Yes, where
he goes on to blame the journalists and he tries
to disparage Tom Lobianco by saying, ah, we don't know
who this guy is. He's from obscure news agency. Who's

(44:29):
ever heard of twenty four News? And that WIBC of
course for spreading it all around this is low, t
weak sauce energy coming from the Lieutenant governor to blame
the media for reporting the news.

Speaker 12 (44:42):
So there's there's literally nothing here, and so the media
is just picked up any it was this news source
that most like I'd never heard of before me neither
twenty fourth site, Yeah, twenty fourth site news. But then
WIBC just picks it up and starts running with it
like there's something there, and they pushed this out and
they're like, oh, well, there's this is this is obviously
something because some reporters somewhere in the country got an

(45:05):
alleged hip from some and they're all anonymous sources. This
is the same thing they did to Trump. And I'm like,
have we not learned anything, guys from from what President
Trump went through? And so so again us, there's very
serious allegations and we take it very seriously in my
office and that kind of action won't be tolerated. But
I'm also going to call out the media here and
just people pushing this narrative that there's literally no basis

(45:29):
for fact.

Speaker 5 (45:30):
Hey buddy, you need a ride. I was just on
my way to the big Dupus Convention.

Speaker 3 (45:34):
So Lieutenant Governor is asking for a lot of trust
and confidence and just the authority of his claim. He
says that it doesn't exist and we should stop asking
about it and leave it there. I mean, he's not
even willing to show the process by which he investigated
and allegedly cleared the staffers at his office, Like, you know,

(45:55):
if it's important to be transparent, why wouldn't you show
how you about this investigation, how you were able to
clear these staffers. But he made an interesting claim there
where he was trying to distance himself from this reporter
Tom Lobianco, who broke the story for twenty four site News.
Turns out, Micah beck With is very aware of Tom Lobianco.

(46:18):
Because Tom Lobianco did a profile piece on Micah beck With.
He trailed him, he spent time with him on the
campaign trail and the infamous Tahoe vehicle that he spent
quite a lot of taxpayer dollars on to acquire. Once
he was in the Lieutenant Governor's office, Lobianco was right there.

Speaker 9 (46:39):
And this is what's so funny.

Speaker 30 (46:40):
I know that he talks regularly with Caleb Blakesley up
in Fort Wayne, and I actually funny enough as a journalist.
I actually called in a correction to super radio station.

Speaker 31 (46:52):
So she's the morning host on Whoa Whoa, which is
the big talk station in Fort Wayne.

Speaker 30 (46:56):
Yes, yeah, yeah, And I called in the correction to
something that he on her show.

Speaker 11 (47:01):
I said, could you just, you know, please add this
to your story.

Speaker 9 (47:04):
I said, he says.

Speaker 30 (47:06):
That he doesn't know what twenty four site News is,
and that is incorrect.

Speaker 9 (47:10):
Because when I here, I'll pull up the I'm gonna
read it to you. Here. Here's the text that sent
him setting things up. When I was working on the
profile for him. Okay, and I said, Hi, Lieutenant Governor
Tom Lopianco here, hope you were doing well.

Speaker 30 (47:26):
I'm reporting a profile of you for the Indiana Citizen,
and twenty four Site News wanted to connect.

Speaker 9 (47:33):
I'm at the state House today.

Speaker 31 (47:35):
Cheers, and then you back, and then you I didn't
mean to cut you out, but then you proceeded to
and I want to hear what his response. But then
you proceeded to like you spent a going to events
with him, You were in the infamous car with him.

Speaker 12 (47:46):
Yes, I spent a day on the trail with him.

Speaker 30 (47:50):
Basically, I mean this is you know, it's something I
do as.

Speaker 9 (47:53):
Somebody who covers politics.

Speaker 30 (47:54):
You know, you go out on the road with politicians
all the time.

Speaker 31 (47:56):
So for him to say so, for him to say
he doesn't know who you are, I mean that's or
what you're doing, or what that website is, that's complete crap.

Speaker 9 (48:03):
Yeah, yeah, he's lying about that.

Speaker 2 (48:05):
He's guilty.

Speaker 5 (48:06):
You can see it on his smug little face. Guilty,
I say, guilty, guilty.

Speaker 3 (48:11):
So if Micah Beckwith is willing to lie about his
association and knowledge of this reporter concerning this story, one
questions what else might the Lieutenant Governor be willing to
lie about? Because he is establishing a pattern of dishonesty here.

(48:33):
Thanks for listening to ninety three WIBC more Saturday Night
on the Circle.

Speaker 5 (48:38):
On the way, stay tuned.

Speaker 13 (48:41):
I'm tigrosy that sky.

Speaker 9 (48:48):
Once again.

Speaker 2 (48:52):
He is Saturday Night on the Circle. Oh ninety three
WYBC No will welcome back to Saturday Night on the Circle.
I'm your bespectacled curmudgeon.

Speaker 3 (49:03):
Ethan Hatcher, returning to the microphone, wanted to talk about
the status of Fountain Square skid row that was supposed
to be shuttered as of Monday August eleventh, and do
you think, producer Jack, do you think that the Office
of Public Safety actually got around to protecting the citizens
and shuttering the homeless encampment.

Speaker 5 (49:25):
No, of course not.

Speaker 3 (49:26):
You would be right, because this city leadership is feckless
and they care more about the rights of these bums
to do as they please than of the freedoms and
privileges of tax paying homeowners in the area to be
rid of the rampant decay around their property. This as
reported by WTHR, the encampment still going strong, with more

(49:47):
than a dozen tents and others returning to the famed
Fountain Square skid row.

Speaker 32 (49:53):
The city's deadline has come and gone for people to
leave that encampment for the un housed in Fountain Square.
News learned late this afternoon that the city now will
not forcefully remove anyone from that area. Marina Silva went
back to the location where tents for the unhals are
still lining our city streets.

Speaker 28 (50:12):
Those living here on Leonard Street got an extension from
the city. Ones we spoke would say they're hoping to
move into their new housing soon. For the last month,
people living at this encampment and Fountain Square we're told
by the City of Indianapolis to find a new place
to live. That deadline was Monday, August eleventh. Now on Tuesday,
Angela Merrill says she is still waiting for her new

(50:33):
home to be ready and she has nowhere else.

Speaker 7 (50:35):
To go, hopefully by tomorrow.

Speaker 27 (50:38):
And it's just a progress because it's got to be
up to today for the government or their standards or whatever.

Speaker 9 (50:45):
Money please, Oh no, no, there's no money. Oh oh,
that's fine, I'll just destroy this office. Money please, money
for some money, it's easier.

Speaker 5 (51:02):
So you heard that that woman had been waiting for
housing for months.

Speaker 3 (51:07):
In a report from WIFYI, they said that some had
been waiting years for housing because they're just waiting for
a handout. They're not looking for a hand up or
an opportunity to care and stabilize themselves. And this is
always going to be a recurring issue unless the city
is willing to stand up for citizens and say that

(51:29):
this behavior is not acceptable and it's not going to
be tolerated. The dirty little secret is the reason why
a lot of these people are on the streets and
not sure. So CouchSurfing, I should say, sofa surfing is
because they have burned bridges with family with friends with
extremely anti social behavior, and now they're exhibiting the same

(51:52):
behaviors in the neighborhood to the homeowners who are having
a heck of a time just trying to deal and survive.
Even attempts to make peace with the Fountain Square skid
Row residents have proven fruitless and drawn further aggression. This
according to Ryan Hendrick, who was on Hammer and Nigel
this week talking about the Fountain Square skid Row and

(52:13):
one homeowner's attempts to make peace with the neighborhood falling
a flat on their face.

Speaker 33 (52:19):
Yeah, this is it's an open air drug markets. It's
a haven for violence, sex in public. I spoke to
a homeowner. Her name is Chelsea. She doesn't mind dropping
her name on the air. She gave me permission to
do so. And she lives at the end of Buchanan
at nine to twenty five Buchanan. She said she has
caught people having sex on a ring bell camera in

(52:40):
the backyard. They're stealing her water and she has been
kind enough with her mother and her sister and her
to buy tents from these people from Amazon and have
them delivered to the homeless encampment in an effort to
try to make friends and so they won't steal from her,
But she said that relationship isn't reciprocal. They end up
stealing and stabbing.

Speaker 5 (53:01):
Her in the back.

Speaker 34 (53:03):
And that's another thing that I've heard from your reporting.
It's not that these people in Fountain Square, the homeowners
are heartless. They just don't want their trash cans tipped over.
They don't want things stolen off their property. It's you know,
they don't want crimes being committed in their backyard.

Speaker 7 (53:18):
Right.

Speaker 5 (53:19):
I am shocked, shocked, well not that shocked.

Speaker 3 (53:23):
This is a simple request from city residents to deal
with the issue. This was something that was noted by
James Briggs of all people writing for The Indie Star.

Speaker 5 (53:35):
By allowing these.

Speaker 3 (53:36):
Vagrants to take up residents in public spaces, you are
excluding the public, the tax paying public, the law abiding public,
from use of those spaces because nobody wants to be
around it. Nobody wants to be around these people because
of how their generosity is treated. Just like this homeowner
who you know, well intentioned but made the mistake of

(53:57):
purchasing tents in an attempt to make peace and was
stabbed in the back, her home continued to be vandalized,
her home continued to be stolen from, she continued to
be a victim of public defecation and drug paraphernalia, and
what else would you expect. This problem isn't going to
go away, and ultimately continuing to leave this situation unaddressed

(54:20):
is unfair both to the homeless who it is not
safe or acceptable to continue to love to let them
live on the streets, and it's certainly.

Speaker 5 (54:30):
Not appropriate for the homeowners that have to deal with it.

Speaker 3 (54:33):
This is something that Donald Trump is now addressing with
common sense in his sweep of Washington, d C.

Speaker 5 (54:41):
With the National Guard.

Speaker 3 (54:42):
This according to Press Secretary Carolyn Leavitt, who announced that
they would be making a DC great again by removing
the homeless and protecting citizens' rights.

Speaker 5 (54:53):
This is how it's done.

Speaker 9 (54:54):
Regarding the President's efforts in Washington, d C.

Speaker 23 (54:56):
Do you have any specifics about how homeless people will
be dealt with, where they would be moved to, what does.

Speaker 7 (55:03):
This look like?

Speaker 23 (55:04):
I do, yes, and it's an important question, so thank
you for raising it. The Metropolitan Police Department, with the
support of the new federal agencies who have been surging
on the streets of the District of Columbia. Are going
to enforce the laws that are already on the books
here in.

Speaker 7 (55:18):
Washington, d C.

Speaker 23 (55:19):
For far too long, these laws have been completely ignored
and the homelessness problem has ravaged the city. So DC
Code twenty two thirteen oh seven in DC Municipal Regulation
twenty four to one hundred give the Metropolitan Police Department
in the authority to take action when it comes to
homeless encampments. So homeless individuals will be given the option

(55:40):
to leave their encampment to be taken to a homeless
shelter to be offered addiction or mental health services, and
if they refuse, they will be susceptible to fines.

Speaker 9 (55:48):
Or to jail time.

Speaker 23 (55:49):
Again, these are pre existing laws that are already on
the books. They have not been enforced, which is part
of the reason for this federalizing of the National Guard
to bring in this assistance for law enforcement. While we
are targeting criminals and trying to remove criminals off of
the streets, we also want to make TC safe and
beautiful and that revolves removing mentally disturbed individuals and homeless

(56:11):
encampments as well.

Speaker 9 (56:14):
It's morning again in America.

Speaker 3 (56:17):
This is a common sense approach that needs to be
mirrored everywhere across the United States. And absolutely every effort
should be made to connect the mentally unwell with resources
to treat their mental illness, whether that's a therapist or
an asylum, some form of confinement. Connect drug addicts with

(56:37):
treatment for their addiction, for counseling, and connect others with
shelters and job resources, an ability to get them or
an effort to get them back in to be a
contributing member of society. And everyone else who is unwilling
to engage with those social services, then the expectation should

(57:01):
be for them to move elsewhere where it's not going
to disturb residents with their anti social behavior or else
face fines in jail time. And it really should be
that simple. Thanks for listening to ninety three w ib C.
Coming up next, Carl's Conspiracy Corner. Don't miss it.

Speaker 12 (57:18):
Now, Fever, you.

Speaker 9 (57:19):
Drugging with a rubber duck and I'm about to pull
a plug on your degree.

Speaker 2 (57:30):
You're listening to Saturday Night on This Circle. On Nighty
Pree w IBC.

Speaker 22 (57:40):
Welcome back to Saturday Night on the Circle. I'm your
Bohemian codger Ethan Hatcher. My podcasts are uploaded to widc
dot com and my personal podcasting page Saturday night on
the Circle dot Fireside dot m and we're streaming live
on YouTube Machine seven to nine every Saturday night.

Speaker 5 (57:56):
So pop in the chat and join the five.

Speaker 3 (57:58):
Since that faithful meeting on Jacky I and culminated in
the creation of the Federal Reserve in nineteen thirteen, this
pseudo independent agency has controlled the United States monetary policy
and opened our economy to the shadowy interests of international bankers.
The quiet scandal that's being ignored by traditional media is
that three quarters of Federal Reserve remittances are going to
foreign banks and quietly jeopardizing American financial security and independence.

Speaker 5 (58:21):
Tonight you'll hear a dedicated enemy.

Speaker 3 (58:23):
Of the international bankers, fighting against their blind lust for power,
the one and only producer Carl, who joins us for
another edition of Carl's Conspiracy Corner.

Speaker 9 (58:35):
You are listening to Carl's Conspiracy Quarner. The truth is
out there.

Speaker 29 (58:41):
Have you ever seen a common drink of glass of water?

Speaker 1 (58:44):
Wow?

Speaker 9 (58:46):
I can't say I have.

Speaker 2 (58:48):
The views expressed Conspiracy Caral are those of Caral and
Caral alone. They are enough the use of his station
or its distributors, I mean, obviously.

Speaker 5 (58:55):
Deep beneath the streets of Indianapolis.

Speaker 3 (58:57):
In an undisclosed broadcasting, we're once again joined by producer Carl,
who's here to tell us all about the Federal Reserve
and their duplicitous intent.

Speaker 5 (59:07):
What's going on.

Speaker 27 (59:07):
With a nice touch on the Jecal Island reference. I'm
sure that a lot of people aren't even aware of
how the FED came to be.

Speaker 5 (59:14):
Google it, look do it.

Speaker 7 (59:16):
We could do.

Speaker 5 (59:16):
We could do a whole segment about that.

Speaker 27 (59:18):
And the FED is about as federal as Federal express.
This is a private entity. It's it's actually technically a corporation.
And they controlled the entire money supply of the United States.
And when you consider how important the US dollar is,
they basically control the money supply of the entire world.

Speaker 3 (59:39):
Well, they're supposed to keep the economy stabilized, but think
about how devalued the dollar has been since the Federal
Reserve has gotten in control.

Speaker 5 (59:48):
Like you know, we've lost so much of the value
that we want what's commanded.

Speaker 27 (59:52):
Well, and just think with that kind of power, the
amount of corruption that comes into play.

Speaker 31 (59:57):
Absolutely.

Speaker 27 (59:58):
Yeah, this is a very wonky subject, so I'm not
going to spend too much time talking about it, you know, entirely.
But e j Antoni, who is a frequent guest of
Tony Katz on Tony Kat's syndicated to show Tony Kats
a Day, was talking about that not only does Jerome
Palell need to be fire fired, but the entire FED

(01:00:20):
board needs to be fired because of this remittances issue,
where basically, whenever the FED has a net gain on anything,
they're supposed to remit it back to the US Treasury
because we're lending the FED its money to do what
it does. It turns out, in the last three years

(01:00:42):
under Biden, not a surprise, three fourths of these remittances
are going to foreign banks.

Speaker 3 (01:00:50):
It's like, what, so they're excavating the United States value
in excavating the United States dollars and sending them a
foreign banks.

Speaker 27 (01:00:58):
Well, and it's also giving them a lot of pot.
When I say them, I'm talking about foreign banks, international
banking system. We are essentially at the beck and call
of foreign interest. And that's been what the whole Trump
movement has been has been make America first, well, it's
hard to make America great again if you are indebted

(01:01:20):
to all these international foreign interests and multinationals.

Speaker 5 (01:01:25):
So we had a SoundBite from mej Antony. What did
he have to say?

Speaker 27 (01:01:29):
Yeah, So basically I wanted to play it directly from him,
so you weren't just hearing it from conspiracy Carl.

Speaker 9 (01:01:34):
Let's play it exactly.

Speaker 11 (01:01:35):
So, instead of making payments to the Treasury on behalf
of taxpayers, the FED is making payments to Wall Street
to the tune of four hundred and fifty billion dollars
or million dollars a day. Again, it's over four hundred
and fifty million dollars every day. And actually part of
the scandal here tony is the fact that if you
look at something like the reverse repurchase agreement marketplace, more

(01:01:58):
than three quarters of those payments don't even go to
American firms. They're foreign financial institutions. And we don't even
know how much of the interest on reserve payments are
going to foreign institutions directly or indirectly, because that information
is not disclosed.

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
By the FED.

Speaker 11 (01:02:16):
So, I mean, it is an absolute scandal that the
FED has basically turned the monetary system now into a
way to give free money to these different financial firms,
many of whom aren't even American.

Speaker 5 (01:02:29):
This sounds like an international banking welfare system. And you know,
I'm listening to this.

Speaker 27 (01:02:35):
I'm publishing for Tony. I'm listening to this and go
this is a huge story. Nobody in the MSM is
covering this. I mean, if you want to be like
an anti Trumper, like, let's talk about this, like why
why is Trump just talking about too slow or too
late to Rome Pal?

Speaker 5 (01:02:53):
Excuse me?

Speaker 27 (01:02:54):
Three fourths of the remittances from the FED are going
to foreign banks.

Speaker 3 (01:02:59):
So they're just that they're jeopardizing American monetary independence because
they're enriching other nations off of our dollar. This is
the this is the danger of when we went off
the gold standard, because you used to have a backed
economy and we controlled the gold that was in the nation,
and then now that's that's completely gone to pot with
this Viat currency.

Speaker 21 (01:03:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 27 (01:03:19):
I so, so to repeat repeat a narrative here, you
are not in control, meaning the people that are listening now,
there are foreign interests, there are multinationals that so not
even not even the congresses any we well, the please
the politicians are all bought and paid for. Come on,
I mean to think about what goes on here locally,

(01:03:41):
you know, with with these h one b one visas
like and people are getting paid to bring people over
from from India and all these other foreign countries. So
these data centers that are being built are not even
going to be employing Americans.

Speaker 5 (01:03:54):
In their own Secretary of State of legibly, yeah, they're.

Speaker 27 (01:03:56):
Going to be importing the employees. And just recently look
it up. You know, I know I'm a crazy conspiracy theorist,
but just look it up. Jim Jordan, who we can
serve as tend to like because he does a nice
sound clip every now and then talking about the left,
he was granting visas to Chinese nationals that are members

(01:04:17):
of the CCP, And I'm like, going, what.

Speaker 5 (01:04:19):
Is going on here? Everybody is on the payroll except
you and me Ethan.

Speaker 3 (01:04:24):
So the voting is just the illusion of choice. It's
it's basically a placebo at this point.

Speaker 27 (01:04:30):
You know, in the Soviet Union they had elections too,
you just had one choice. I mean, Saddam Hussein won
ninety nine percent of the vote and those other one
percent happened to be get killed, and.

Speaker 3 (01:04:41):
We joke about it, but the reality is, you know,
starkly more evident every day that.

Speaker 5 (01:04:47):
The duopoly is really the uniparty. They're one and the same.

Speaker 27 (01:04:51):
Well, this is a wrestling match, and I voted for
Trump three times, so I'm not one of these never trumpers.

Speaker 5 (01:04:58):
But I have to realize that what what does Trump
do a lot?

Speaker 27 (01:05:01):
He's friends with the World Wrestling Federation, and a Dana
was at Dana White and and uh at McMahon. Linda
McMahon is in his cabinet. It's wrestling, so it's it's yeah,
you know, it's like you got the good guy and
then you've got the bad guy.

Speaker 5 (01:05:19):
So well, I mean, he's done nothing to rein in
federal spending since.

Speaker 27 (01:05:22):
He There's a report out today that our actual debt
deficit is worse than it said, but yet we brought
in the most tariff money that's ever been brought Like, well,
why isn't it paying down the debt and the big
beautiful bill, which we all know that people said was
going to increase the deficit, it's doing exactly that. So

(01:05:43):
not only are we paying continue to pay income taxes
which the tariff was supposed to replace, we have more debt,
so each family household is indebted to pay this down.

Speaker 3 (01:05:55):
The more we try to spend ourselves into prosperity, the
more we are weighted down by the excess of inflation
and the pressures of the interest rates on this money
that we're borrowing that we simply don't have.

Speaker 7 (01:06:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 27 (01:06:09):
So anyways, like I said, it's it's really wonky. I
wanted to delve just very quickly into what's been going
on in the news, and it hasn't really been explained.
Much like the price of eggs when Trump began, the
price of beef has been going up.

Speaker 5 (01:06:24):
Yeah, yeah, but nobody explains, like what's going on here?

Speaker 27 (01:06:28):
Well, have you heard of this new thing, this new
scourge that.

Speaker 5 (01:06:32):
We have to worry about? Oh no, what's the latest.
It's called the screw.

Speaker 27 (01:06:36):
Worm where you get screwed over, buddy, the screw worm.
It's like a parasite that infests cattle. Again, no threat
to human beings, ja, Mike.

Speaker 3 (01:06:48):
My take is that you can't eat wind mills, you
can't eat solar panels, and you can't eat data centers,
and that's what's gobbling up a lot of our farmland.
And we're not creating farmers anymore, we're creating warehouse workers.

Speaker 5 (01:07:00):
Need to feed, feed yourself, So too much beef.

Speaker 27 (01:07:03):
My theory is, and it's just a theory for now
because I'm not hearing really anybody covering about the price
of beef. Much like the bird flew, they're going after
the cattle. So the screwworm comes out. They're shut shutting
down ranches. They're quarantine ranches, and one farm a cattle
ranchers is they're called Merryweather Farms has asked the USDA

(01:07:27):
to show the proof because the USDA is shutting down
these ranches. Now, these these cattle, this screwworm is no
threat to human beings. If you cook your meat, you're
not gonna get the screw worm. So this is just
a threat to cattle ranchers. So they have a vested
interest in wanting to protect their cattle. But here's good

(01:07:47):
old government coming in. We're gonna shut you down, and
there you go. It's all economics one oh one. Is
you have a shortage of supply, demand remains the same,
the price.

Speaker 5 (01:07:56):
Goes up, and the bankers win to the end.

Speaker 27 (01:07:58):
Yeah, and they're gonna get the land after they bankrupt
the landowners.

Speaker 5 (01:08:02):
Well that's not very cheery. Wait in the segment, producer Carl, Well, it's.

Speaker 27 (01:08:06):
A Saturday night, Ethan, so go out and have yourself
a drink.

Speaker 5 (01:08:09):
Well yeah, now I have to have one to dull
the pain. Thanks for that.

Speaker 3 (01:08:13):
Stay tuned for more on Saturday Night on the Circle on.
Thank you, producer Carl as always thank you.

Speaker 15 (01:08:19):
And in the words of that Amutavard Samuel Jasondrez as
it was about to be led to the Gueu.

Speaker 32 (01:08:24):
Team, make em laud make them loud.

Speaker 9 (01:08:29):
Don't you know everyone.

Speaker 4 (01:08:30):
Wants to lab Dad.

Speaker 2 (01:08:33):
You are listening to Saturday Night on this Circle on
nighty three WYPC.

Speaker 3 (01:08:39):
SAD, Welcome back to Saturday Night on the Circle ninety
three wib C.

Speaker 5 (01:08:43):
Thanks for spending your Saturday evening with me and I
wanted to end on.

Speaker 3 (01:08:47):
A bit of a light note by celebrating that it
appears Hollywood has got the memo and now the new
Paramount Boss, David Ellison, said that he's going to be
focusing on making movies for Middle America again and Top
Gun three is going to be their top priority, along
with a spate of comedies and movies to appeal to

(01:09:07):
the missing middle, I approve. I think it would be
great for Hollywood to stop engaging in the woke DEI
destruction of the entertainment industry. Well, there's one other topic
that I wanted to discuss, and I didn't get to
in the previous segment because we ran out of time.

Speaker 5 (01:09:23):
This week, on The Kendall and.

Speaker 3 (01:09:24):
Casey Show, Rob Kendall put forward a name for a
potential candidate for Indianapolis mayor.

Speaker 5 (01:09:31):
And the more I think about it, the more I
like the idea.

Speaker 3 (01:09:34):
Not because this would be a serious candidate that would win,
but because this is somebody who could burn the city
to the ground and uproot the political system, and that
I'm here for. This was who Rob M. Kendall suggested
on the program this week.

Speaker 31 (01:09:50):
If Hogg said is indeed running for a fourth term,
which is now the belief of many people who certainly
heard him the other night, that he's s gearing up
for a fourth term. And we know the Republicans have
zero of winning, don't we just have to have the
most fun campaign ever and let Stephen Whitmer from Indie
Reporter run as the Republican nominee for mayor of Indianapolis
with no attempt to even win, just to burn everything

(01:10:13):
to the ground.

Speaker 5 (01:10:14):
Would that not? Would that not please the people? You
ain't gonna win anyway, It'll be entertaining. Let's say and
do all the things.

Speaker 31 (01:10:21):
I am starting the Indie Reporter for GOP mayor nominee
movement right now, right here today, Steven, I see you
in the YouTube chat.

Speaker 5 (01:10:30):
Will you accept the nomination if if indeed it has
put your way?

Speaker 13 (01:10:35):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (01:10:35):
He said, let's go very good.

Speaker 9 (01:10:38):
Thus, who will begin to make things right?

Speaker 3 (01:10:41):
Look, the Marion County GOP has already demonstrated that they
are underly unseerious about nominating a candidate for to beat
Joe Hawk set to meaningfully beat the Democrats here in
the city of Indianapolis. So why not take advantage of
the situation. Why not nominate somebody if that doesn't have
any political ties, that doesn't have anybody that he has

(01:11:04):
to answer to, somebody that would be willing to burn
the system to the ground. And that is Steven Whitmer
of the Indian Reporter. He actually has some experience running
a campaign. He ran and failed to be elected as
a congressman here in the state of Indiana. And I
think there were many flaws to his campaign, for sure,

(01:11:25):
But we're not looking for a winner here, Producer Jack.
That's the beauty of this strategy. We're just looking for
a flamethrower. We're just looking for somebody who would be
willing to ask the questions. Nobody in the mainstream Indianapolis
media outside of this radio station has been willing to
engage in things like why Joe Hoggs that are yeah,
Joe Hoggs that disappeared during the riots?

Speaker 5 (01:11:48):
Where was he? Why has he looked over the enormous.

Speaker 3 (01:11:56):
Abuses that were taking place within the City County Council building,
like the unfolding scandal of Thomas Carl Cook abuse within
the City County building. So there are lots of unanswered questions,
and Steven Whitmer would be somebody who's utterly and totally
willing to ask the questions and confront Joe Hogg set
on the debate stage. So the more I think about

(01:12:16):
this idea, the more I am inclined to agree. I
think Stephen Whitwer would make a great candidate for the
Indianapolis City mayor, if only to upend the political system
and send everybody running. I think he would be great
for that. Thanks for listening to Saturday Night on the Circle. Unfortunately,
that's all the time I have, folks. If you missed

(01:12:37):
a moment of the program, make sure to catch my
podcast uploaded to WIBC dot com as well as my
personal podcasting page Saturday Night on the Circle dot Fireside
dot FM. See you next week, and in the meantime,
I'll leave you with my parting words of wisdom. As always,
wherever you are, whoever you're with, and whatever you're doing,
remember that life is a state of mind.

Speaker 5 (01:12:56):
See you next time.
