Speaker 1 (00:07):
Billy Cunningham, the Great America, and welcome to Florio is
Sonny Wednesday after being in the tri States, and of
course Joe Placko is dominating the news athletically, and according
to Tony Bender and others, they have their sources deep
in the bowels of the Bengals locker room. Looks like
Joe Flacco's going to start on Sunday in Green Bay.
The four to twenty five star gives him an extra
maybe three hours to get ready. So I don't know

(00:28):
how big the playbook's going to be, but he's got
an extra three hours to do a little bit better
than Jake the Snake Browning. But other than that, we
got big issues happening in River City, including the Mayor's race,
and of course half to have Pure ofval is running.
He looks good, he smells good, he dresses well. But
the policies stink. But that's a different issue. And joining
you nine now is the Republican candidate for mayor, Corey

(00:49):
Bowman and Corey welcome again to the Bill Cunningham showing
first of all as a father, as a business owner
in the West End, as kind of a normal person,
Why in the hell do you want to do this
When Kamala Harris got seventy seven percent of the vote
in the election in the city of Cincinnati, what is
Corey Bowman, the half brother of JD. Vance, want to
be the mayor of Cincinnati.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Well, Bill, first off, thank you so much for having
us on. You know, early voting just started yesterday. Me
and my wife went to the Board of Elections and
we voted.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
I will tell you who I vote for, but I'm
a little bias. You can probably figure.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
That out, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
As far as me, you know, I've been you know,
pastoring and business owner in the downtown area.

Speaker 4 (01:30):
For about five years now.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
You raised in the area, and for me, you know,
just like many people on both sides of y'ale, we
love this city. We love the potential of this city.
We love the sports of this city except when we're
playing and then we kind of debate that every week.
But besides that, you know, we we care about the policies.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
That affect the residents of this city.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
And what I think is happening in city Hall is
that people have lost sight of what truly impacts the
residents of the downtown area. In the fifty neighborhoods of
our city, and that's what we've got to bring it
back to. You know, for me, my opinion is that
city Hall is nothing but glorified custodians. We've got the
keys to the city. We need to keep the streets clean,

(02:12):
we need to keep the streets safe. We need to
get a handle on crime from a city perspective, and
we need to make sure the money.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
Is spent properly.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
And when you look through the budget of the city,
when you look at the crime that's happening in our city,
when you look at the potholes everywhere, you can tell
that people have lost sight of what truly needs to
be prioritized at city Hall.

Speaker 4 (02:32):
And that's why we're running well.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
We had another terrible event on the heart of the city,
of course, is Fountain Square, another event in which shots fired.
I saw a lot of cones out, maybe twenty to
thirty cones. Two people are involved a gunplay on Fountain Square.
And every time I talk to city council members, they
tell me crime is down, crime is down. Are the
books cooked in the city of Cincinnati to give us

(02:56):
a defined result? So Ted Pierreval and others can run
the idea that crime is down. What everyone knows crime
is up. Are the books being cooked at city council?

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Well, this is what I hear from city council a lot,
is that the perception of people is their reality and
so it's perceived as unsafe. Well, you know, we used
to counsel in our church a lot of youth in
the inner city. And if a kid came in with
a black eye that he said that, you know, his father,
his mother, you know, beat him the night before. We
don't look at that child and say that their perception

(03:29):
is their reality. We know that their reality is their reality,
and we do something about it. So to tell people that, oh,
it's only a perception that downtown is unsafe, but yet,
you know, Fountain Square got shot.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Up last night.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
We've had three shootings in three days, two of them
were hobicides.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
Then that's a slap in the face.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
To people, to business owners, to single moms, to families
that are living in the area that experience this on
a day to day base. You know, you asked, are
we cooking the books? What I will tell you is
that at our church on Clark Street in the.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
West End, we've had three instances.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Where forty to sixty shots have come by the street
and they have run into car windows, into residents' homes,
and a lot of it gets reported as just simply
property damage. Right it's not even being reported properly.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
And then a lot of people don't even call nine one.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
One anymore in the West End specifically, because we know
it's not going to get dispatched properly. These are administrative
failures that's happening from the top down, and that's why
we're running.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Two thousand cars are reported it's stolen. There's probably thirty
to forty thousand car break ins in the city of Cincinnati.
According to shot spotter, there's at least twenty thousand bullets
flying around the city every year. Think about a number
of twenty thousand bullets flying around that are picked up
by shot spotter. There's thousands more not picked up by
shot spotter. We have a police force down about twenty percent,

(04:55):
and so if crime is down supposedly twenty percent, it's
only down because twenty percent fewer cops are arresting people.
If cops aren't available to arrest anyone, of course, crime
is going to be down because cops are not arresting anyone, plus,
can you address yourself to solutions. One of the solutions
a lemon kearney and they have to have pirival, is

(05:15):
to have a program where armed robbers are paid about
one thousand dollars a month not to commit arm robberies
and are giving travel vouchers to other cities to enjoy
themselves to get out of the cauldron of the city
of Cincinnati. You think it's a good idea to pay
arm robbers one thousand dollars a month of tax payer
money not to commit more arm robberies?

Speaker 5 (05:35):
Is that a good idea?

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Well, I'll say this, if you're paying arm robbers, then
a lot of people might choose a different profession to
try to get benefits of that payment in the next.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
Few weeks ahead.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
But I will say this that we do have solutions
for this, and these solutions come from the people that
are boots on the ground. You know when you say
that phrase crime is doubt, I've said to cop after
cop that city Hall all states that crime is down,
and immediately, I'm telling you right now, every single one
of them roll their eyes emphatically whenever they hear that,

(06:07):
because they know it's not true. They know that they
are trying to come up for air every night.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
I've had officers that have.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
Come in to my shop and they'll look at me
and say, if you don't win, I'm going to consider
early retirement because it is a craftstorm of what's happening
from the administration. These are officers that care about our city,
that got into the job to be able to protect
and serve, and so our solutions from the top down
are we're going to allow the police offers to enforce
the law. We're going to remove any of these divisive

(06:37):
initiatives like Act Porcini or three to one one or
art programs that divide the police department from the communities
that they want to serve.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
And then we're going to.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Totally look at the ECC, the Emergency Communication Center, and
make sure that our call takers are dispatchers in our
administration in that department is going to be run by
people that have police experience and know what they're doing.
We're going to be doing a lot when it comes
to that, but I think the biggest aspect is allowing
the cops to do their job. Because I talked with

(07:08):
an officer right.

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Before the WBN fireworks, and.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
I asked them, Hey, is there anything that we need
to make aware on social media to give you guys
some help, Like do we need to call in for
help from the state, Do we need to call in
for help from other sources? And the officer looked at
me and said, we just want to be able to
do our job. And that is the general consensus of
what I get from CPD. They're not asking for help

(07:34):
from the state or federal They're just asking to be
able to do their jobs effectively. And every decision that's
being made from the administration has political aspects of it,
and they hate that. They just want to be able
to protect and serve Corey Bowman.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
As far as your relationship, your half brother is JD Vance.
I mentioned earlier that Kamala Harris got seventy seven percent
of the vote in the city of Cincinnati. Is your
brother's presence has the vice president of the United States?
Is that a positive or a negative in the city
of Cincinnati.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
Well, for me, my relationship with my brother is always
going to be positive. I'm never gonna be ashamed of
where my brothers come from and where he's taken himself
because in just such a short amount of time. He's
come from abject poverty, coming from the struggles that many
people in the nation know about, to then going to
the Marine Corps, and then going to graduating early from

(08:29):
Ohio State University from Yale, and then rising up to
the Vice President of the United States as a family member.

Speaker 3 (08:35):
I'm so proud of where he's come from.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
But at the same time, I need people to understand
that we're running this race not as like a plant
from the federal government. We're running this race because we
are trying to do our part to help our city.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
And that's exactly why we're running.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
Yeah, have you thought about bringing your brother into help
with the campaign.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
My brother loves Cincinnati.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
You know, when we talk, I will tell people this
is that at the end of the day, I need
to have a brother, you know, more than a political advisor.
Because we talk about our kids, we talk about you know,
Star Wars, we talk about all these other things, and
he's got a lot of bigger fish for fry whenever
he's in the position that he's in, and so when
we have those moments together, that's what we talk about.

(09:20):
Now when it comes to help, he's completely on board
with what we're doing. He's endorsed us, but I think
that this has to be a race that we're running
and showing people that we're running this for Cincinnati because
the opposition that my opponent is trying to use the
city and trying to use all these positions to try
to get up to a higher level in DC, whether
it be a cabinet position or whatever.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
I'm not trying to do that. I'm actually just trying.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
To use my relationship with DCS to try to impact
Cincinnati in a positive way.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
When I talked to business owners, says one on the
banks that was in the Inquirer day, it's like a
mini martive sorts.

Speaker 5 (09:56):
He said.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Every day there's six to ten thieves every day coming in.

Speaker 5 (10:01):
He said. He started using cameras.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
It turns out to be twenty to thirty thefts every
day from his store, he said, calling the police, Cincinni Police.
This is at the banks. This isn't maybe in price
Ill somewhere. It's worthless because they have so many thieves
coming into a store that people walk in, take his
tough and leave. And of course he's about to leave
the banks because he can't live like that. You have

(10:23):
many other individuals who were in Oakley and at Hyde
Park that had massive car break ins. They don't call
the police. They hit the nine to one one picked up, Okay,
we'll send a car. A car doesn't come, and then
they call back and say I like to make a
police report, and then nine to one operator will say, well,
we'll note that. And so there's a feeling in the
citizens of Cincinnati that when crime takes place, it will

(10:46):
not be memorialized, it will not be noted. If the
police are demoralized, they don't show up. If you've been
hired the past five years, you're told as a police
officer in Cincinnati, don't pull people over for speeding violations
or minor traffic. You might have to go hand on
because there's no license. If your car is broken into,
just deal with the insurance company. If your store is
robbed repeatedly, maybe the store owner said in the banks

(11:10):
fifty to sixty times a week he has known thieves
under his store a week. So over a month we're
talking about two to three hundred thefts, none of which
are recorded. So it's not surprising that crime is down. Also,
when cops tell me there's been two people taking their
curfew violation centers because the kids are now telling the
cops how old are you?

Speaker 5 (11:29):
I'm eighteen? Okay, you got your ID with you? I
don't have any ID.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Cops can't arrest anybody on a curfew, and cops don't
want to arrest anybody on a curfew. So shots are fired,
blood running in the streets. Shopkeepers are being looted, Individuals
are having violation of their personal space in their cars.

Speaker 5 (11:47):
Bullets are flying into homes.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
None of this is recorded as crime because they don't
call the police.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
And so.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
How do you respond to the mayor? Tomorrow night at
Xavier there's a big, great debate there and I'm sure
the Democratic Party has already stocked the audience in order
to say patting themselves on the back. I looked this
morning in the inquiry lemon Kearney and others are talking
about crime is down, crime is down, crime is down.

Speaker 5 (12:11):
It is a lie.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
How do you tell the truth when the entire media
in this town and others are treating this issue of
crime as if it is something better than it's been
in the past, when we know it isn't.

Speaker 5 (12:22):
Ben Now you got me a little bit fired up.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
I wish we had citizens who would actually report crime
and the city would note what's being done. And like
on Fountain Square, I saw about twenty eight cones on
Fountain Score at five point thirty pm yesterday. I'm watching
Shriek Paleolo last night, and once again on Fountain Square
there's a sense that it's the ok Corral. We have
people being robbed, we have women being sexually assaulted, we

(12:46):
have cars being broken into, we have businesses being looted,
and the city's mayor act as if I see here
and speak no evil?

Speaker 5 (12:53):
How do you deal with all that? Tomorrow night? There's
a question in there somewhere.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
Well, I'm telling you, Bill, what's been happening on the streets.
Every single thing that you just mentioned that is what
the citizens of Cincinnati are experiencing. And what you said
is how are people reporting crime? How are people doing this?
If people are fed up, this is what they have
to do. They have to go to the Board of
Elections during early voting, and they have to make their

(13:21):
voice heard. We have a debate tomorrow night. It's not
so much just focusing on the.

Speaker 3 (13:26):
Bat of the past. We've got to focus on the
hope for a future.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
And I think that's what many people in Cincinnati have lost.
When everybody saw Joe Burrow run his foot, run his
toe that everybody lost hope. When everybody saw that final
inning of the second game against the Dodgers. There's a
lot of hope that gets lost. And when people are
seeing what's happening in our city, a lot of hope
is getting lost. But I'm here to tell people we

(13:50):
have plans, we have policies. We know this isn't rocket science.
We can bring this city back. We can be able
to help our communities, the ones in low poverty, the
ones that are business owners, and people that have expressed
their interests that they're tired of where the city is going.
We can actually make a difference. And this starts with
this election. Get educated on what the city council members

(14:11):
that are running stand for, and then you have a
choice between Aft Purvall and Corey Bowman. And I'm asking
every single person Unlike the other side, I don't feel
that I'm entitled to a vote. I don't feel that
I'm entitled to somebody putting a sign in their yard
or getting the word out. But what I will do
is work my butt off to say I want to

(14:31):
earn that vote. We have policies, we have plans, and
we have a heart for this city and we're not
going to look at party lines. We're going to look
at what's going on Cincinnati. And if that's the case
with what you feel, then I would encourage every single
person get out and vote. Vote, vote for Corey Bowman
for mayor Cincinnati.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
What does your website? Many want to know if they
want to get involved in help, what is your website
of any.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
The website is Coreybowman dot com and Cory bow We've
got all of our structure in place. Every financial contribution
from here on out is going toward ads, and it's
going toward getting the word out to as many people
as possible that there's an election happening November fourth and
that we actually have a choice. Because you're mentioning seventy

(15:16):
seven percent of the vote went the other way for
the presidential election.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
This is because.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
People don't see a point in voting in the city
of Cincinnati. But there's a sleeping giant of conservative values.
There's a sleeping giant of people that are moderate, that
see common sense on both sides, and they want to
get out and make their voices heard. I'm telling people
you've got a choice on November fourth, get out and vote, vote, vote.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
All right, Corey Bowman, thank you. Your opponent looks good,
smell is good, acts great.

Speaker 5 (15:46):
But he stinks as the mayor.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Let's continue, Corey Bowman, You're a great American. And thanks
for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
Thank you, Corey, Thank you, Bill, to you and all
your listeners.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
It's not or being on God bless America. Let's continue
with more and there it is. And do I have hope? Yes,
I always have hope. I always have hope. Look at
the Yankees last night, losing six to one, and everyone
stood up for Aaron Judge and guess what the Yankees won.
And I know Paul O'Neil's happy about that. That's a
different story. But the city must be saved and Corey

(16:17):
Bowman is the man that can save it. Bill Cunningham
News Radio seven hundred WLW, Billy Cunningham, the Great American,
Dave Keaton hit the music, Big Things lie ahead. After
one o'clock today will be Julie Gunlock of the Independent
Women's FORMIWF dot org. And when you talk about. I'm

(16:38):
often asked questions, I have a son or a daughter
there in their teen years, you're in their early twenties,
and they're getting one side of almost every political issue
in school. I can't imagine the progressive liberalism being practiced
by Cincinnati public schools, plus many others in which normal
American values of faith in God and family in America

(17:01):
are just not mentioned. It's always playing the victim. Card
I mentioned the other day that we live in a
society where the mainstream media has one viewpoint and you
better listen to it, and if not, you'll be called nasty, dirty, rotten,
filthy names. And for those you know mayor have to
have pure of all, it's going to be an important race.
I think most smart money says Corey Bowman's got little

(17:22):
no chance. But I hope he does, because I hope
those held captive, who are voters in the city of Cincinnati,
victims of the so called Stockholm syndrome, understand what's happening
in their town and the policies of those of the
politicians causing it should be held to account. Whenever a
have to have pure of all, or lemon Kearney or

(17:43):
Scottie Johnson pipe up. Public safety is job one, two
and three. The most important thing we have is public safety.
I might add fixing the potholes is almost impossible, and
law enforcement is being demoralized. Talk to cops. They'll tell
you their eyes roll back on their head when they
have the mayor say, you know crime is down. When
Brian Combs just reported another shootout at the Ok Corral

(18:05):
also known as Fountain Square when people are getting off work,
there's a shootout, a gunplay happening on Fountain Square. But
people getting shot all over the place with dozens of
shots fired, and it's downplayed in the media. Is no
big deal a gunplay. Shootouts are common in the city
of Cincinnati. A lot of it has to do with
the fact that when cops arrest people, the judicial system

(18:28):
we have not counting a judge. Josh Berkowitz's a good
man simply let these individuals go. I think I saw
I tried to watch it all on Fox nineteen with
Tricia MACKEI. You know, to bind over a sixteen or
seventeen year old who commits a murder, or rapes a child,
or commits armed robberies ought to be a given because
if you're using guns when you're sixteen and seventeen to

(18:49):
commit vicious crimes, you've done lots of things in your
life to get you to that point. I think the
point of the story is there was only one commitment
so far this year to adult court for serious crimes
committed by sixteen and seventeen year olds. It used to
be adult crime, adult time, not anymore. The juvenile cour
system keeps them locked up, and the bail bond project

(19:11):
means that Democratic judges believe in no bail bond. In
other words, you sign your name and you get out,
no matter what the offense is. Public safety be damned.
In fact, when their screen is Democrats, they have to
have to promise to let individual criminals out of jail
on no bond whenever possible, and by doing so, serious
crimes take place, including the killing the murder of their

(19:34):
own friends. I had the situation last week or my friend,
Judge Ali Hathaway used to work on our news department,
now at Judge in Common Police Court led a eighteen
year old out who went and killed somebody. I don't
know how you live with yourself when you make these
soft on crime decisions but that's where we are. We're
in a progressive, liberal city. We're in a sanctuary city,

(19:56):
and that's the way it is. And we're about ten
years behind sh but we're getting close. So when the
mayor's debate happens tomorrow night at Xavier, I am sure
that I have to have pure of all who looks good,
acts well, and smells good, is going to talk about
all the successes of his policies, when every cop in
the audience will be rolling their eyes backward knowing it's

(20:17):
not true. There is a gross increase in crime, but
the reporting of crime is way down. The shopkeeper and
the banks has dozens of robberies, burglaries, and thieves thefts
every week, but he doesn't report them anymore because what
good is it. It doesn't do any good. So the

(20:40):
new logic is number one, refuse to enforce the law.
If you're a progressive mayor, do not enforce the law.
Send the message you don't want people arrested, because if
you get them arrested, now you got problems. Might have
to go hands on. You'll find out, well, this guy's
got three warrants out for his arrest. Pull somebody over
for speed and guess what. Well, can I see your
driver's license, registration, proof of insurance? Well I don't have

(21:02):
a license. Well I don't have any insurance. Well you
can't drive the car. Then you get a tow truck.
Then you go hands on, I'm not getting out of
the car. You find out all hell's breaking loosen. Scottie Johnson,
who spent one year as a cop on the street
in twenty five years in special detail, doesn't understand what's
happening on the streets of Cincinnati with the cops. So

(21:23):
number one, do not enforce the law. Put in speed bumps,
don't pull people over. Number two, demonize those who do so.
Cops enforce the law. Talk to Ken Kober about the
reality on the streets and not maybe the chief of
Police Fiji. He'll tell you the reality is we're told
directly and indirectly, do not enforce the law. Why because

(21:47):
the numbers look bad when you do so. When you
run for reelection or an have to have Purevol's case.
Wants to run state wide, Good luck with that. He
wants to run on a success story in Cincinnati, and
he can't run on the reality of the crime the
city Cincinnati he's got to rely upon the statistics. So
the cops are told directly and indirectly, when you see
hundreds of homeless on the downtown streets of Cincinnati, which

(22:09):
is against the law, it's illegal, don't arrest him, don't
go hands on. Secondly, when you see open air drug
use in the city of Cincinnati, leave him alone. Don't
arrest him. You're gonna get other difficulties. And number three,
discourage individuals from reporting crime because it makes the numbers
look bad, and then you have a game. Step three

(22:33):
is to shield the law breakers some responsibilities. If Ryan Hinton,
for example, had been locked up for the crimes he
committed before he stole that car in northern Kentucky and
then was killed by the police because of the gun
in his possession, he likely would be alive today, maybe
to grow out.

Speaker 5 (22:49):
Of the crime.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
So it's kind of a cynical corps, a cynical dance
act in which justice has turned upside down. Tomorrow Night's debate,
I guess Corey Bowman's going to talk a little bit
about the National Guard coming here, which likely will not
happen because the crime numbers are down, but the crime
being committed is way up and mayor have to have

(23:12):
pirival is never going to acknowledge failure by bringing in
the National Guard to the City of Cincinnati, even though
they're shootouts on Fountain Square. He's not going to do
that because that admits failure. They don't want the Highway
Patrol to be here. They don't want ATF to be here.
They don't want the Marshall Service to be here. They
don't want the FBI to be here. They don't want
the Sheriff's department to patrol downtown streets. You might recall

(23:34):
about a month ago ahead on Chermaine McGuffey, the sheriff
who had issued something arrange a two hundred and fifty
citations over a three week period, arrested dozens of people,
found many guns, and that kind of went to the
side because it shows the city police are not doing
their job because they're told not to do their job
by the administration.

Speaker 5 (23:53):
Rather circuitis so.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
The citizens have got to arise on your own, behalf
of and say who is responsible for the policies under
which we live? Justice is being turned upside down? Who's
responsible for this? These policies can change things can be better.
You don't have to spend millions and millions of dollars
paying armed robbers monthly stipends not to commit armed robberies,

(24:19):
are giving travel vouchers. You don't you know all these
make work programs. You need three things. One cops to arrest,
two prosecutors to prosecute, and three judges the sentence. It's
a small number of people doing this stuff, five hundred
to one thousand by number.

Speaker 5 (24:32):
And that's it.

Speaker 4 (24:34):
And so.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
And Brandon Johnson and Kim Bass and MARYO. Bowser the
other big city mayors are saying, you know, crime is down,
crime is down. We don't need people here. That's a
bunch of bs. By rejecting state help and federal help,
all they're doing is the big city mayors is saying,
we got this under control. Life is good. And he's

(24:56):
sending messages to law enforcement that the enemy is in
the blue uniform. The public safety is secondary to democratic purity.
And Chicago, Cincinnati, San Francisco, New York, Portland is not alone.
The leadership in blue cities refused to enforce the law.

(25:18):
They refuse to accept help, refuse to acknowledge that the
victims of this lawlessness are ordinary hard working citizens who
believe in the rules, mainly black citizens. The great majority
of black folks in the city of Cincinnati believe or
not are in the middle class. They live middle class
lives and live it quite well. The face of crime
and Cincinnati is a young male black face. But the

(25:41):
great majority of young black males do not commit crime,
and the great majority of black females commit no crime,
And the great majority of black males and females over
the age of thirty commit no crime at all.

Speaker 5 (25:51):
They work, they have jobs, they're normal people.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
It is stunning that the electorate in my city, Cincinnati
accept this as the norm. When they know something is better,
they have to know that at a minimum, whether it's
Chris Smitherman or Liz Keating or Linda Matthews, someone has
to change what's happening on city council just a little bit.

(26:15):
Spending on these make work job programs and social welfare
spending doesn't get it done. And public safety is not
that important as opposed to progressive purity. So when they
get together and have their meetings all over the country,
mayor have to pierrival who looks and acts and smells
really great can boast the idea, you know what, our

(26:41):
city crime is down twenty percent.

Speaker 5 (26:42):
No, it's not.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
Its just sard Brian Combs talk about violence all over
the city and cops know if they arrest someone, they'll
be out before the paperwork is done. And a judge
and common police court, we're not sending them to jail.
Let them go out with maybe an ankle bracelet. And
that's where we are. Can this all change? Absolutely, things
are backwards. A looter can become an misunderstood activist. In fact,

(27:06):
I have a quote here from the mayor of Chicago.
He was asked by one of the reporters about the
looting of the water tower Michigan Avenue, about the fact
that forty percent of the businesses in downtown Chicago are
shut down, about the arsonists and the looters, the rapists
and the robbers, and he says they're not that. He

(27:27):
calls them young people who made a mistake. Quote unquote, Well,
if a young person makes a mistake, what do you do. Well,
you correct the mistake and you move on. But if
someone is discharging guns, shooting people, arm robberies, massive drug sales,
massive open air drug use, non enforcement of traffic laws,
and twenty thousand bullets flying around the city of Cincinnati,

(27:49):
and those are the ones that can be chronicled. There's
many more above that. The mari after Piival cannot look
at himself and say, you know what, damn, my policies
have failed. We got to go a different direction. Will
double down on the policies that cause the problem because
that fits his left wing ideological persuasions, so he can
move on to the next political office. The last thing

(28:09):
they want, despite the news conference of a month ago,
is to have the Highway Patrol come to Cincinnati take
away the law enforcement function of when comes to traffic offenses,
so the real cops can function and work on the
real crime. They don't want that. Number One Scottie Johnson
does not want a large number of the citizens of

(28:29):
Cincinnati pulled over by highway patrol to check on their
speeding violations, to find out there's warnes out for the
arrest and there's no insurance available, and there's no car
registration and the.

Speaker 5 (28:41):
Person has no license. They don't want that.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
They want the crime to continue and then act as
if with their head buried in the sand, something good
is going on. Cincinnati is no different than the other
major cities. A lot of it is ideological, and the
progressive mayors do not want law breakers responsible for what
they've done. They want just the opposite, and they want

(29:05):
to stay in power at all costs, irrespective of the
costs of the citizens.

Speaker 5 (29:09):
So in a.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Sense, November is November fourth election day, but about three
and a half weeks away.

Speaker 5 (29:17):
It's going to be a big one.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
And I have a great concern that the typical Democratic
voter will march into the polls and see D or
R or I independent, and simply stick with the same
tribe that caused the problems in the first place. In
a sense, you and I are watching a social contract

(29:40):
unraveling in real time with law enforcement and retreat with
a judicial system that has promised to go soft on crime,
and that many of the officers, therefore, after years of
doing this, have lost their courage and because they've been
stripped of their legitimacy by progressive democratic maris and govern

(30:01):
and federal agencies and state agencies like the highway patrol
or atf or liquor control, they're kind of told to
stand down, do not help, do not assist, And while
in the National Guard can be deployed to like federal buildings.
Are they met with happiness and gratitude in Chicago or Portland?
Thanks for coming in to relieve us. No, no, no.

(30:24):
And whenever police show up, or the highway patrol show up,
or I shows up, the governors and the mayor say, there,
it's provocation and that's causing problems. Have you ever seen
a police officer or law enforcement official in uniform and
suddenly you go from peaceful and quiet and you're provoked

(30:44):
in the committing crime because you've seen law enforcement And
that's never happened to me, happened to you? Ever ever
see a cop and say, you know what, until I
saw that cop over there in uniform, I was going
to be peaceful. Now I'm all angry, I'm all pissed off.
Now I'm going to act up. And what's happened is
that democratic mayors and blue cities, blue states, sanctuary cities,

(31:06):
sanctuary states have become so intoxicated with its own narrative
they'd rather lose control of their city than share credit
for restoring order. Chicago is maybe unique, Cincinnati's on the
same path, and the cost of this delusion by big

(31:27):
city mayors is not somehow theoretical. If you were walking
around Fountain Square yesterday there were dozens of shots fire
to shootout on Fountain Square and you were hit, it
wasn't theoretical to you. I look forward to a day
in the future which may not happen for a long time,
in which older women are not afraid to walk to

(31:47):
a corner store in Avondale or Evanston, or the immigrant
family who begins the legal small business is not looted
for the third and fourth and fifth time in some
convenience store, or that the police officer is told to
stand still while chaos erupts around him no more, and
that law abiding citizens who want to use the public

(32:10):
square and the public thoroughfare that don't have to stop
to wonder if something bad has happened to me, where
do I can I call a cop? And will a
cop oup actually show up? There were so many car
breakings at the Bengals game that many times nine women
was overwhelmed they quit calling. So at the end of
the game, this has got to stop. And I see

(32:33):
except in the city at Dallas, there was a long
term African American Democratic mayor who said, I don't want
to live like this anymore.

Speaker 5 (32:41):
We got to stop this.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
He became a Republican, a law abiding, law enforcing republican,
and maybe at some point this is the time when
Corey Bowman will be selected and elected as the mayor
of Cincinnati to go on a new and different path.
Do I think it's going to happen. No, do I
hope it's going to happen. Absolutely happen. If it does
in Cincinnati is going to suffer at some point one

(33:04):
of its large employee ers to say, you know what,
we can't take it anymore. We're done. We got to
go another direction. It doesn't work anymore. Please get us
out of this, get us out of this situation. That's
what's going to happen. It could be Procter and Gamble,
or it could be Fifth Third Bank, could be one
of the other large employers are saying to themselves, you
know what, we can't take it anymore. We got to

(33:26):
stop this madness. It cannot continue. And so we look
forward to a city council this time that will be
a little bit better when it comes to law in
order and a functional judiciary and cops are willing to
enforce the law when they're supported by their civil authorities,
and right now, the civil authorities do not support Cincinnati police.

(33:47):
Ken Kober says it all the time that many times
we feel as if an arrest is irrelevant and it
doesn't matter because of how they're treated in the court
system and the fact that often normally the criminal is
out before the paperwork is done. And those are city
cops saying, you know what, we can't take it anymore.

Speaker 5 (34:04):
It's got to stop.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
So you know, we'll get the government we deserve, and
I think the average American deserves much better than what
we have right now.

Speaker 5 (34:13):
Would you agree? I would hope.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
Well, let's continue after one o'clock today will be Julie
Gunlock in the Independent Women's Form and for those mothers
and grandmothers and caregivers if you want to know how
to develop a conservative philosophy and to counterbalance the arguments
you hear in school all the time about the country,
about Jesus Christ, and about the flag. She's a great
resource at Independentwomen's Form dot com. So just pay attention

(34:37):
to this election. I think it is like none other
We're going to have for a long time, and somehow,
some way, something must change. If it doesn't change, We'll
get more of the same, which is not a good situation.
Let's continue. Bill Cunningham the Great American Live at Home
of the Reds and Bengals, News Radio seven hundred ww

(35:02):
Billy Cunningham the Great America. One of the stories not
covered by the mainstream media because he was so so
bad for the Democrats.

Speaker 5 (35:09):
And in fact, this story has said.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
Zero zero zero coverage by CBS, ABC or NPR, and
nationally NBC News has had thirty seven seconds on it.
And that is there's a candidate for attorney general in
the great State of Virginia that is wished, among other things,
death for his political opponent. In fact, let me for

(35:32):
those who may not know, news broke on October third
that Jay Jones, the Democratic candidate for Attorney General in Virginia,
had sent text messages in twenty twenty two to Republican
House Delegate Carry Coiner this is a Republican, he's a Democrat,
saying he would give former Republican Virginia House Speaker Todd
Gilbert two bullets to the head and also he would

(35:55):
yearn in on his grave. He also texted that he
wanted to see the children of Gilbert where it's wife
mother have her kids die in her arms. And when
this broke about ten days ago, you would have thought
it would have been a bombshell in the state of
Virginia the commonwealth, because this is the chief law enforcement official.
This comes thirty days after the murder of Charlie Kirk,

(36:18):
of course approximately, and so far it is hit with
a thud nationally. In fact, it's not being covered. And
one of the sad parts about this is that three
hundred and fifty thousand Virginians voted in the election prior
to the news that Jay Jones had endorsed political violence
against his adversaries, and this came at a time, believe
it or not, in Virginia early voting is six weeks early,

(36:40):
six weeks, three hundred and fifty thousand have already voted
in Virginia. Joining you and I now is Julie Gunlock,
Independent Women's Form IWF dot Org and Julie Gunlock, Welcome
again to the Bill Cunningham Show. You live in that
generally that part of the country. How big of a
news story is this in Virginia and how big is
a news story should it be nationally? Especially at today
assassination of Charlie Kirk and what happened in the sentencing

(37:03):
Breg Kavanaugh is purported assassin.

Speaker 5 (37:05):
Give me a full report.

Speaker 6 (37:07):
Well, look, it is a big story in northern Virginia
rather in Virginia as a whole, but only among what
the left loves to call us conservative media. We are
really the mainstream media, but the left loves to call
us conservative medium. And for purposes of identifying what types
of media are reporting on this, it really is from

(37:29):
outlets and from individuals to our right of center.

Speaker 7 (37:33):
The left refuses to address this.

Speaker 6 (37:37):
In fact, you mentioned NBC covering this for thirty seven seconds.
The only reason that it was covered by NBC News
is because on Sunday at Kristen Welker Show, there was
a Republican panelist and he mentioned it. He forced the issue.
They were not going to talk about it, they were
not going to address it, and boyd did she try
to move on. Kristen Welker said okay and then moved

(38:00):
on from that subject. So they only got thirty seven
seconds on it. That is the only network media that
is covering this. This man j Jones, He is a sick,
sick individual and for Republicans like myself who live in Virginia.
It is terrifying that the lead law enforcement official in
the state of Virginia who could be elected, he is book.

(38:23):
We've got a lot of lefties in particularly in northern Virginia,
and if he is elected. To think that a man
that so hates Republicans and Conservatives that he wishes death
not only on those Conservatives but on their children and
he wants to I mean, what he said is just vile,
and I won't repeat it here, but it is so terrifying.

(38:45):
And I have a lot of conservative friends who, after
Charlie Kirk's assassination, are afraid. But then the thought of
this man becoming the lead law enforcement official, I mean,
I think people might move. It's too scary to live
in Virginia if this guy's elected.

Speaker 1 (38:59):
Especially as a you're like a woman, you're like a mother.
You identify as a woman. Is that fair to say?
And you identify as a mother. Is that fair to say?
And to have the idea, how is it it possible
in someone's head? And this is a responsible, forty year
old man who's been in politics for a very long time.
To heaven his head, the idea of killing his political opponent.

(39:20):
In context, he said, You're in a room with three people.
One of them is Adolf Hitler, the other one is
Paul Pott, the genocidal Cambonian dictator, and the third one
is this House of Delegate member is a Republican.

Speaker 5 (39:32):
You only got two bullets. Who do you shoot?

Speaker 1 (39:35):
And he says, I put two in the head of
the Republican and I let Paul Pott and Alf Hitler live.
And then he went on to urinating on his grave
and talking about the mother of his children having a
kid's dye in their arms. How do those thoughts ideations
get in your mind at all? That shows you the
sickness of this pedophile murderer ideation.

Speaker 5 (39:56):
That is sick and sad.

Speaker 1 (39:58):
But somehow no one, no Democrat in Virginia, including the
two US senators, have separated themselves from him.

Speaker 5 (40:05):
Is that foud to say?

Speaker 6 (40:07):
That is absolutely correct? Mark Warner, Senator Mark Warner and
Senator Tim Kaine, who you know came close to being
our vice president at one point in twenty sixteen, neither
one of them. In fact, Tim Kaine just yesterday reasserted
his support for this vile man who wished deaf on
Republicans and children. So the absolute moral midgets that make

(40:31):
up the leadership of the Democrat Party, it is certainly disturbing.
I will say also Abigail Stanberger, who is running for
governor in Virginia against Winsome Sears, a legal immigrant, a
black woman, and a Republican, a former marine. Abigail Spamberger
is running against her. She is a absolute leftist wrapped

(40:54):
up in Talbot's clothes to make.

Speaker 7 (40:56):
Her look moderate.

Speaker 6 (40:57):
She is not moderate.

Speaker 2 (40:59):
She is a rat.

Speaker 6 (41:00):
Abigail Stamberg has not in any way come out to
retract her support for Jijohn. She has not retracted her support.
So this is again the ticket in Virginia is one
a sociopath after another. It is terrifying for people and
to those moderates, To those moderates who think, Okay, well,

(41:21):
you know I'm gonna go with Abigail Stamberger, think about
what you're voting for. Think about what and to those people,
to those Democrats who might be for gun control, think
about the man that we're putting in charge of law
enforcement in Virginia. You really want to support a guy
who fantasizes about shooting a man in the head and
then killing his children, and those children bleeding out in

(41:43):
the arms of the mother. This is who you would
be voting for. So take your liberal sensitivities, take your
thoughts about gun control, and apply it to this guy
because he's a sick. Oh, this is not the kind
of guy you want as the lead law enforcement official
for Virginia.

Speaker 5 (42:00):
Jullie Gunlock.

Speaker 1 (42:00):
I always say we get the government we deserve, and
that worries me greatly. Another more or less related matter
in a sense, is the person admitted to trying to
assassinate Justice Brett Kavanall in his home and he wanted
to kill the judge, kill family members of Justice Kavanaugh,
and then I guess kill himself. But this calls for

(42:23):
political assassinations are quite serious, especially with what happened to
Charlie Kirk. When you have a left wing assassin shooting
into the vans of ice fans in Dallas, Texas. The
violence political violence, everyone talks about how bad it is.
But there's a sentencing judge in Maryland named Her name
is Judge Deborah Boardman, imposed a rather light sentence on

(42:48):
She refers to him as Sophie Rosky twenty nine, saying
that his transgender status gives some special standing in court. Explain,
first of all, can you give us a brief exile
nation of Sophie as to what he did. Rosky would
be on probation after the eight year sentence that's being appealed.

(43:08):
But you have a lot of left wing assassins who
get their cues from watching mainstream media outlets, including the
mayor of Chicago, the mayor of Kim Bass of LA,
the Governor Pritzker and others who talk about Nazis and
they talk about Adolf Hitler and they talk about fascism.
And so those on the left take their cues from

(43:30):
their leaders who say, go kill somebody. And this guy
was going to kill Supreme Court justice because of the
Dodge Dodge decision.

Speaker 5 (43:38):
Explain that one.

Speaker 6 (43:39):
Yes, yeah, So this man traveled to kavanaughs home. This
is a man, a man, a biological man, traveled to
Kavanaugh's home with tape and other restraining devices and rope
and weapons, and he was intent on killing Kavanaugh. He
has said he is admitted that it is because he

(44:02):
was afraid that the court would take away gay marriage
and because of his his obviously hysterical reaction.

Speaker 4 (44:09):
To the Dob's case.

Speaker 6 (44:10):
So this there was a motive. There, there was an
intent and a motive, and this man now identifies as
a woman. This contributed to the light sentence that he received.
He will likely go to a women's prison. He is
an intact male. He will likely go to a women's
prison and probably, you know, cause great harm to the

(44:34):
women that are housed there. The judge did say that
his transgender identify identity contributed to her light sentence, which
conveys a really interesting message to future criminals. If you
want to do harm to people, if you want to
kill people, hurt people, or threaten to hurt people, or
even just show up and not succeed, but at least
show up with an intent to kill, if you change

(44:56):
your sex, if you change your so called gender, if
you identify something else, hey, why don't you identify as
a carrot? I mean, why stop it at biology here.
Let's just let's just let's just identify as you know,
a strawberry, and that will contribute to a lighter sentence.
So get ready for a lot more transgender violence out there, because.

Speaker 7 (45:17):
We're going to have a whole lot of people.

Speaker 6 (45:20):
Praying on these on people and then appealing to liberal
judges for lighter sentences because they're transgender. Sickening.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
How about this one. I'm going to read a couple
of comments of the sentencing judge. Quote, I take into
consideration the conditions of pre trial confinement and the fact
that she is a transgender woman and will be sent
to a male only prison facility. And so the fact
you identify is something something different than what you truly
are is a benefit when you try to kill the

(45:50):
Supreme Court justice now bombardment, it's.

Speaker 5 (45:54):
I'm looking this on.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
No, wait a minute, So if I identify as an
African American, do I get a benefit? If I identify
as a woman, do I get a benefit? If I
identify as a carrit do I get a benefit? The
answer by this judge, This isn't some left wing college
professor at Harvard. This is a sitting United States Court
federal judge saying, I'm taking into account the fact that

(46:16):
this Rosky character has a penis but puts on lipstick. Therefore, Roski,
a man, is a woman, fully intact, and I'm going
to send him her to a federal women's prison to
do what I'm thinking, What the hell's going on around
this place.

Speaker 6 (46:33):
Yeah, it's really sickening. And my organization, Infinite Women's Forum,
has actually done a lot of research and we've done
some documentaries on featuring women who were in prison and
were housed alongside men and witnessed and were the victims
of violence and sexual violence because they house men in

(46:54):
these women's prisons. It is a real problem. It's cruel,
and it's unusual, and it's against the constitution and this
needs to stop. But these liberal judges, all they care
about are the feelings of these mentally ill men. Women
have to set aside their feelings, their discomfort, their fears,
the risk of being raped. It's just as what Riley

(47:18):
Gaines has documented over the years. She and her classmates
and her teammates were told to set aside their own
feelings make room for a male who is competing against them.
But they're doing it to these women in jail. They
cannot escape it. It's absolutely sickening. And I have no
doubt that this man will be sent to a women's prism.
We don't know for sure, but I have no doubt

(47:40):
that another judge will probably you know, consider any kind
of appeal and put him in a women's prison.

Speaker 1 (47:47):
According to the sentencing report of the FED. So Rosky
was arrested in the early morning hours of June eighth,
twenty twenty two, near Brett Kevanaugh, Justice Kevanaugh's home. She
he had flown from California early was carrying a bag
with a gun, ammunition, a knife, a hammer, duct tape,

(48:07):
zip ties, and various tools. And the court, the judge
was shown was what he was doing, what he intended
to do, and he said he was going to do it.
Kill as many as he could, tie them up, torture them,
and kill them. This is the Supreme Court justice. And
I'm thinking, okay, and isn't this an issue in Virginia.
And I think also in other races where the liberal

(48:29):
Democrats want to put boys in girls' restrooms to changing areas,
and they want to put men and like in workout
facilities with the women. In fact, there are men who
have exposed themselves in front of the little girls that
are given a Texas Alpaso because they identify as female
or they think this is what I'm going to be
explain That was a mother. I think you only have

(48:50):
boys as your children, But do you want to imagine
if you you know, boys don't like it when girls
come into their bathrooms.

Speaker 5 (48:57):
I don't think.

Speaker 6 (48:59):
Billy. That actually happened in Loudon County, Virginia, which is
in Virginia, Northern Virginia. There was a girl who identified
as a boy, who walked into a boys locker room
and there were bathroom facilities in this locker room, and
she filmed those boys. And when those boys complained guests,
who was suspended the boys? The boys were suspended. That girl,

(49:23):
who she identifies as a boy, walked into their bathroom
and completely violated their privacy, and she was not suspended.
The boys were. Now those parents of those boys have
now sued. But it's so bad that one of the
families actually left the area. They had to move because
their child was so persecuted in this school. This is

(49:45):
how upside down it is in Virginia, particularly Northern Virginia.
They don't care about the kids. It's all about politics
and it's all about furthering this radical agenda, and again
at the cost the kids. They just don't care.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
You know, for mothers that have teenage boys, there's a
tough road ahead. I often say that boys and men
need affirmative action because boys and men are the ones
who commit most of the crimes, have most of the
suicidal ideations, use most of the drugs, and as a
mother and a boys tend to be a little macho,
but boys can be extremely shy when it comes to

(50:23):
exposing themselves in front of girls in a bathroom. So
when a girl comes into a boy's bathroom and films
them going to the bathroom standing at the urinal and
the boys object, suddenly the boys are the perpetrators and
the transgender girl is the victim.

Speaker 5 (50:38):
Explain that one to me again.

Speaker 6 (50:41):
Well, Billy, you know, in every form of media too,
men and boys are always portrayed as the idiots. The
smart one is always the mom or the daughter. It's
all this kind of condescension. Oh gosh, you got yourself
wrapped up in a mess again, Who let me rescue you.
It's always the woman or the girl is the smart one.
The absolute cruelty that our pop culture and our media

(51:07):
has towards young men and boys, it is horrible. As
a mom, who I think is navigating this quite well
because my boys are great. Kit them off of social media.
You watch what they watch on television, do not let
them have any kind of social media accounts and tell
them to read, tell them to read and to get

(51:27):
outside and touch grass, give them chores to do, make
them work those muscles. That is what you do, because
it is an absolute dumpster fire out there for young
men today and it's a parent's job to protect young
men from this narrative.

Speaker 1 (51:41):
Well, we have the government we deserve. It concerns me greatly,
especially on the East and left coast, when we have
mayors and governors advocating indirectly violence against a federal law
enforcement because they're enforcing the law. And you have the
fools in California Illinois acting is if well, if I
I had the opportunity in nineteen thirty five to kill

(52:03):
Adolf Hitler, would you do it?

Speaker 5 (52:04):
And that's an academic pursuit.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
Many on the left that are mentally ill, like the
assassin of Charlie Kirk, sold the opportunity and he took it.
And to have government officials advocating the murder of political
opponents and the horrible ideations about bloody children in the
arms of their mother to get elected at the high
political office, you know, Julie Gunlock, we got problems, got
to run IWF dot org, Independentwomen's Forum dot org. So

(52:29):
much information there. Julie Gunlock, once again, thanks for coming
on the Bill Cunningham Show. Thank you, Julie, Thank you,
God bless you. Let's continue with more.

Speaker 5 (52:38):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (52:39):
Well, all I can say is we're in trouble if
we don't change course, deep trouble. And I'm so encouraged
by the activities in the state of Montana, for example,
in which thousands of college kids are showing up at
Turning Point USA rallies with the governor and Bozeman Montana.
I was so encouraging the last couple of days Bill
Cunningham seven hundred wa hell are.

Speaker 5 (53:00):
You thinking about?

Speaker 4 (53:02):
We got a game to play.

Speaker 5 (53:03):
Nobody could be Dallas with these losers.

Speaker 4 (53:05):
Again, the fact was great to see you. Now get
the hell out of my.

Speaker 5 (53:12):
Locker room, coach, What the hell took you so long?

Speaker 4 (53:16):
Shut?

Speaker 2 (53:22):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (53:22):
Hello, hello, Buietmos, I'm broadcasting.

Speaker 5 (53:30):
Gosh tig.

Speaker 1 (53:30):
One good thing about the start of the game on
Sunday is that uh Flacco's got three extra hours to prepare.

Speaker 5 (53:36):
Is that correct?

Speaker 1 (53:37):
Well, Willie, He's going to start Sunday and he wearing
he's wearing number sixteen sixteen, and there is video of
him walking across the street, uh, from pay Course Stadium
across the street and said, the players normally do to
the practice field. Does he know where to go? And
Joe Flacco is here now and he's ready to go.

Speaker 5 (53:55):
Is he going to start? He's going to start start Sunday.

Speaker 1 (53:57):
He's already prepared for the Packers because I think the
Browns played them the second game of the season or whatever.

Speaker 5 (54:04):
He's already he already knows about.

Speaker 1 (54:05):
Them, right right, So Cleveland, so the pack And I
guess Jake Browning is okay, he's he's happy with it.
What's he gonna do? I want to get out of here.
I'm happy to be a loser, right, I'm happy not
to play. What's he gonna say?

Speaker 5 (54:21):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (54:21):
But then, you know, the unique thing was, you know, uh,
Zach Taylor's first contact. They had somebody drive to Cleveland
bring Joe Flacco and his wife here, and uh, while
they were coming back, I guess from Cleveland, Zach Taylor
calls the there him and Joe Flacco are on a

(54:43):
speaker phone talking about you know, what they do and
this and that and everything else. So it's a rather
unique situation of I guess jumping on and saying, hey, look,
we got to you know, we gotta do you know, so,
how does he play? Hopefully he plays very well and
they get a win. That's what they need. Will he
got to play better than Browner? Who's back there? As

(55:04):
long as I in the game, I don't care. I
don't know what to say. Could be Kat Anderson, it
could be Jeff Blake, it could be Boomer, it could
be anybody. They got to play better, amen to that.
Can you play worse? I don't think so. Twenty eight
to three, and then they scored three meaningless touchdowns. But
seg these are difficult times. The last time but Willie J.

(55:26):
Morrison had this on Twitter on X, I mean the
last time the Bengals traded with a division opponent, he says,
nineteen seventy three, when they sent tight end Mike Kelly
to the Houston Oilers for a draft pick.

Speaker 5 (55:42):
It's been that long.

Speaker 1 (55:43):
Also, your good friend Jermaine Pratt, who couldn't tackle me,
got let go by the ridas. He is signed with
lou Anarumo and the Indianapolis Colts. They're on the uptick
too right there? Do you have any hope segment? Do
you have hope?

Speaker 4 (55:58):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (55:58):
Why they got a new guy in there? WILLI and
see what happens? Fourteen and a half point dog? Well
by DraftKings fort and a half point fourteen?

Speaker 5 (56:07):
Well?

Speaker 1 (56:07):
What like fifteen of the what the majority of the
games last week were come from behind? In the National
Football League?

Speaker 4 (56:15):
Solo?

Speaker 5 (56:16):
Why not?

Speaker 1 (56:16):
They could have had one here, They could have had that,
They would have got that on site kick. Come on,
you never know. Joe Burrow is now coaching up Joe
Flacco is not correct? The Joe's Flaco and Burrow will
leave the Stuo reporters of proud service of your local

Jays and Yanks at seven. Phill's and Dodgers at nine.
And we say congratulations to the Madeira girls team and
Ellie Hartung who secured a runner up finish in the
girls Division two State golf tournament. It was they only

(57:16):
had one day. The rest of yesterday was rained down.
The Fenwick girls rounded up third. Roger Bacon boys team
finished seventh seventh overall in the state Attorney.

Speaker 5 (57:26):
How about that.

Speaker 1 (57:27):
Now, let's see in the Division one tournament today in
the district championship, Anderson Lakota, East Mount, Notre Dame, Mason, Lebanon,
Little Miami, King, Saint Ursula, Sycamore, Oak Hill's, Turfin Taylor,
Ursuline Academy, Walnut Hills, and Baden, the home of the
Rams are all involved. And Kenji gets old of me

(57:48):
the superintendent of Madeira. The girls are coming in in
glory segment well. And then also, Willy, let's see Sacred
Heart ist third overall and the team standings in the
Kentucky girls State golf tournament. Young Kara Unton is tied
for second overall. She fired a one under seventy one.
Really in high school seventy one seventy one. What course

(58:11):
it's in bowling green Kentucky.

Speaker 5 (58:13):
Don't know the name of it.

Speaker 1 (58:14):
Seventy one anyway, seventy one and putt. Putt's not bad,
that's true, that's pretty good. Seventy one at a place
they probably never saw before, right, I would assume so, so,
I don't know what to tell you. Pretty good stuff.
And then you got Wayne Crucci. Roger Bacon finished seventh
in the state. Roger Bacon kicked the ass of every
team in the Tri State went up north to NCR

(58:34):
and some of the boys played well, some didn't. But
this team, the brightness lies ahead for the Roger Bacon
golf team led by Wayne Cruci, also known as Vinnie.

Speaker 5 (58:44):
They got it. They got it.

Speaker 1 (58:45):
Their first appearance Willison's nineteen forty one, who was president
of nineteen forty one? That was FDR and Truman? Right, No, FDR,
I think FDR yeah, forty one. Yeah, and your daddy
was at Pearl Harbor getting bombed on.

Speaker 5 (59:01):
Correct.

Speaker 1 (59:02):
And now here we are. So Roger Bacon's not been
to the state and the last uh shall we say, uh,
long time, long, long, eighty eighty four years?

Speaker 5 (59:11):
Is that correct? They're back.

Speaker 1 (59:14):
Only one man could have taken them, Wayne Caruci that's
what took them, and who knows what lies said Roger Bacon,
and Wayne on his own Nickel erected a one hundred
thousand dollars golf training facility at Roger Bacon. Now, can
you imagine the kids at Roger Bacon. It's got those
video screens any golf course in America. You get there
and he brings in all the egg David Ledbetter's been there.

(59:36):
You have all the big time coaches coming in to
coach up the Roger Bacon kids to take the state
next year.

Speaker 5 (59:42):
It is take the state next year. They beat taller.
Get to Roger Bacon, take off golf.

Speaker 1 (59:47):
You can identify as a fourteen year old. Just change
what you are by the expression. You could identify as
a fourteen year old female if you want.

Speaker 5 (59:54):
I say just a male. It's fine. Male's fine.

Speaker 1 (59:57):
Yeah, I'm just saying you're gonna whatever you say you
are you is? Okay, you got that. Let me write
down you id say you are you is. So if
you identify as a carrot, then you're a carrot.

Speaker 5 (01:00:10):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
If you identify and that means I'm like bugs, buddy, Yeah,
you got to identify. Then we have to treat you
deal with your mental illness as if it's a real thing,
and not as if your delusions and illusions are sensible.
By treating your illusions as if they're real. You know
what I'm saying. You got all the illusions and that
on this show, a lot of illusions.

Speaker 5 (01:00:28):
Yeah. Well we're going to have end the Roger Bacon
and the Madeira golf teams.

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
Well that's good. Now there's a chance we need Fenwick
in there too. They finished third. They could come in
here and get up a match playing each other. Can
you see Bacon v known as the Amazons by the
way at Madeira? The girls, I don't know. Will that
muld be like Billy Jean King and them was his
name is Bobby Riggs, Bobby Riggs. Get them all in here,
boys versus.

Speaker 5 (01:00:54):
Get him in here.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
Let's see what happens at what course? Well, fb Ken
would of course, I'll talk to Jeff Beckham and Steve
Tino and Wally Swinging by picking up all the expenses
every time a guest shows up. It's one hundred and
thirty seven dollars and fifty cents. So have the golf
teams there might be expensive, that's where I think that
Steve Tino will come in. He'll pick up all the expenses.

(01:01:16):
Can you see a big match? Yes, Bacon fenwek Amazons
tee it up for.

Speaker 5 (01:01:22):
All you know.

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
And then what about all these other Division one teams,
some of the winners while some of their some have
their teams in it, and the other ones are other
schools have just individuals playing. Get them all in here
so I don't have to highlight the accomplishments of teenage Americans.
There you go, get them all in here. Kenji the
superintendent want him in there. But Darre's right there. It's
kind of like our home, right's right there, right across

(01:01:43):
the street. Now, do you have any hope?

Speaker 4 (01:01:46):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
Yes, for the Bengals, Yes, Why I for some strange reason,
I do well. I mean, you know, Willie. They got
to have a guy to throw the ball. If he
can get time to throw it, he can throw that's
another issue. He can put it where he wants to
put it if he can. One's over there, he goes
over here, goes inside, goes outside, goes up down. Get
it to the talented players in space. Get it to

(01:02:07):
the number one. Get the number.

Speaker 5 (01:02:09):
Five five one number eight, five, eight.

Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
And number Chris Collinsworth. Yeah, and then uh get it
to fifteen? Can you spell Oshibosh No? I can't hardly say,
but get the ball to him. But they still have
to protect just a little bit. Would you agree? I
would say he threw for almost three hundred yards with
the Bengals and for the Browns against the BA. But
really he kind of beat the Bengals except the accept
the kicker. How about that extra point in the field goal.

(01:02:34):
I don't know what to tell you. So the Browns
are now trading. They're starting quarterback to the Bengals. Play
they got eight quarterbacks up anymore? Them down to two?
I think they're down to two. The second guy is
now Sanders no one. I mean, give him a shot
at some point, just say, if this kid's any good,
let's find out.

Speaker 5 (01:02:55):
I guess just what you got to do in a
National football League.

Speaker 1 (01:02:57):
Well, we'll see what happens. And I have hope they
can lose by within what happened. I'm asking you this.
We sit here on Monday, Uh huh. Let's jump ahead
to Monday and the Bengals have beaten the Packers. Now
they go to Tennessee.

Speaker 3 (01:03:09):
No.

Speaker 1 (01:03:09):
No, they go right back and play the Steelers here
on a Thursday night a week from tomorrow.

Speaker 5 (01:03:14):
Oh no, thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
What if they beat the Steelers, well then everybody'll be happy.

Speaker 5 (01:03:19):
Then they'll be what four and three? Correct? Now?

Speaker 1 (01:03:22):
What now you're not snickering anymore? Now all of us
ever have Zach Shuel is brilliant. Well, so that's the
way it is. Say give me out of the students report.
On the other side, we have statistics. You think crime
is down? Absolutely not. Now by rime is up? Reporting
a crime is down segment. Give me out of the
students report.

Speaker 5 (01:03:40):
Please will get out here.

Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
Well, we welcome in Joe Flacco to the Queen City,
Number sixteen, the best side of Ohio, I would think.
So we leave you with the immortal words of the
stood Report. Thank you on seven hundred WLW. But Bill

(01:04:05):
cunning in the great American law enforcement is under siege
almost Everyruary, especially federal law enforcement. Whether it's Los Angeles
or Chicago or DC or Cincinnati.

Speaker 5 (01:04:15):
Things are These are not good times.

Speaker 1 (01:04:17):
In fact, here in Cincinnati there's a Marror's race going
on in which, believe it or not, the mayor believes
that crime is down he's running on a happy days
are here again. And we have shootouts in downtown Cincinnati
on Fountain Square. We have twenty thousand shots fired annually
in the city of Cincinnati on shot Spotter, and that's
only the tip of the iceberg, only the ones picked up.

(01:04:39):
We have over two thousand cars stole in the city
of Cincinnati. We have about fifteen to seventeen thousand car
break ins. We got all hell breaking loose. And things
are not much better nationally because in Washington, d c.
John Ladd of Crimeresearch dot Org has some pretty good
statistics on the FBI, under counting the number of arms

(01:04:59):
of millions who throw at active shooters, plus acknowledging they
don't accurately count crimes in the right category. John Lott,
Welcome again to The Bill Cunningham Show. Former assistant ag
with Donald Trump on his first term.

Speaker 5 (01:05:12):
So kind of explained.

Speaker 1 (01:05:13):
First of all, you're posting on x about what the
FBI is doing.

Speaker 7 (01:05:19):
Right, But yeah, first of all, I was a senior
advisor for Research and Statistics in the Department of Justice.

Speaker 4 (01:05:24):
I wasn't an assistant AG. It'd be nice if I was,
but I wasn't.

Speaker 7 (01:05:28):
But look, you know, just to comment on Cincinnati before
I get into the other and that is what I
hope most people realize, is that there's a large gap
between the number of crimes reported to police and the
actual total number of crimes. We know nationally only about
forty percent of violent crimes that report to police, only

(01:05:51):
about thirty percent of property crimes that report to police,
and the gap between the total number of crimes and
reported crimes has actually grown substantially from COVID on if
you've had And the big thing that determines that is
whether or not the civilians think that the that the

(01:06:15):
criminals are going to be caught and punished, And if
they're not, then people don't have as big of an
incentive to go and bother and taking the time to
go and report crimes to the police. And I'd be
concerned that that's the same type of thing that's happening
in Cincinnati as you've seen happening in many other cities
that are there. And so the mayor may point to

(01:06:36):
the number of reported crimes, whereas what's concerning people there
is the total crimes that are there, and that they
may not have confidence that it's worth their time and
effort for at least some people to go and report
crimes to the police. So, but you know, you mentioned
what's happening with the FBI data. One of the I mean,

(01:06:59):
whether it's the me or academics or legislative debates, people
rely a lot on the FBI crime data that's put out.
And it's important if we're going to be able to
go and accurately tell people what makes people safer, that
that data be accurately recorded and reported there and the

(01:07:19):
problem that you have, I mean, last year we talked
about the fact that the FBI had hit its revisions
to the overall violent crime data, kind of interfering in
the election, I felt right.

Speaker 4 (01:07:32):
But what you see right.

Speaker 7 (01:07:35):
Now that we're talking about is every year the FBI
puts out an active shooting report. And these active shooting
cases are guns fired in public, not part of some
other type of crime like a robbery or a gang
fight over drug ter anything from one person being shot
at and missed all the way up to mass public shooting.

(01:07:57):
And the FBI claims that over the elect seven years
from twenty twenty from twenty fourteen to twenty twenty four,
there were only fourteen cases out of about three hundred
that involves civilians legally carrying a gun stopping an attack.
We've gone through and looked at it. We think that

(01:08:18):
there's two hundred and two of these cases, So rather
than just four percent, I would argue that it's about
thirty six percent, and nobody needs to take my word
for it. On our website at crimeresearch dot org, we
list the cases as well as the underlying documents that
are there so people can go and check for themselves.

(01:08:40):
And the thing is, what's particularly troubling are two things.
One is the size of the undercounting is increasing over time.
So last year, the FBI claims that there was not
one single case in the United States of a legally
armed civilian stopping an active shooting attack. I think forty

(01:09:00):
eight percent of those attacks were actually stopped by civilians.
And on top of that, one argument that I had
when I worked at the Department of Justice is that
you really have to separate out places where people are
legally allowed to carry versus gun free zones, because you're
talking about law abiding citizens stopping these attacks, and you

(01:09:23):
can't expect a law abiding citizen to stop an attack
in a place where it's illegal for them to be
able to go and carry a gun for protection. And
when you do, when you do that, you find that
sixty three percent of the active shooting attacks in places
where people were legally able to carry a gun were

(01:09:43):
stopped by legally armed civilians. That's a lot different than zero.

Speaker 3 (01:09:50):
So that's one problem. But the other problem is.

Speaker 7 (01:09:53):
Over the years, the FBI has been told about these problems,
and they've acknowledged that they've miss cases, but they've never
gone back and fixed anything. So they have two types
of problems. One is misidentifying cases. They'll have something that
they claim was a security guard stopping an attack when
it was just illegally armed civilian. But then the major

(01:10:16):
thing is just they keep missing lots of these cases
that are there, and it's just very frustrating that they
won't even fix errors. And what they've done is so
the police departments around the country don't.

Speaker 4 (01:10:31):
Collect this data.

Speaker 7 (01:10:32):
And so what the FBI has done is they've spent
many millions of dollars hiring researchers at Texas State University
to go and do Google news searches of all things,
to go and try to count the number of news
stories where these active shooting cases have occurred, and you know,

(01:10:53):
even the Washington Post went to the FBI and to
to them about these missing cases. The FBI has continually
refused to respond or explain what.

Speaker 4 (01:11:07):
Cases that they've missed. There, the Texas.

Speaker 7 (01:11:10):
State University people were only able to point to two
cases that they argued with whether they should be included.
And I've gone and pointed to that they've included otherwise
exactly similar cases, with the one exception that the ones
that they include don't involve a civilian stopping the attack.
And I've asked them to explain what the real difference

(01:11:34):
then is between the cases that they include and the
ones that they don't that seem to only differ on
whether a civilian used a gun to stop an attack,
and they won't respond either.

Speaker 1 (01:11:44):
And John Lotte, well, you point out what the political
system is embellished and the political system is encouraged not
to tell the truth because politicians run on the idea
that crime is down, whether it's Kim bass have tab
Piaval in Cincinnati, Brandon Johnson, whoever they Adams in New
York City Bowser, crime is down, crime is down, Crime
is down. Therefore, my policies have worked. In reality, the

(01:12:07):
opposite is true. You point out forty percent of violent
crimes are reported to the police, thirty percent of property crimes,
And in Cincinnati there canna be fifty car break ins
in the community and none of your thousand, nine to
one one nothing happens. They say, just file out a
call your insurance company, and those fifty crimes are not reported.
You can be vicious assaults all over the place and

(01:12:29):
the police are overwhelmed and they don't they don't, they
don't respond. And so when you say forty percent of
violent crimes are reported, thirty percent of property crimes, how
do you know it's not sixty ten percent if it's
not reported. If a tree falls in the woods, no
one hears it. Did it really happen? How do you
know those statistics of yours are somewhat accurate?

Speaker 4 (01:12:53):
Right?

Speaker 7 (01:12:54):
No, You bring up an important point, and that is Look,
we've known for over five decades the low rate of reporting.
And we know that because the Bureau of Justice Statistics
and the US Department of Justice has set up something
called the National Crime Victimization Survey, where they survey two
hundred and forty thousand people each year to try to

(01:13:17):
get a measure of total crimes. I mean, the way
we know that most rapes or robberies aren't reported to
police is from this survey. And so you can compare
the number of crimes that people say occurred to them,
and there's a lot of detailed questions to try to
make sure that people are accurately, you know, describing the

(01:13:40):
crime and the characteristics of the crime and other things
that occurred.

Speaker 4 (01:13:45):
You know. We can compare that to.

Speaker 7 (01:13:47):
The FBI data, which is basically analogous to what Cincinnati
or other cities have in terms of crimes that are
report to police, and the gap I mean that forty
is on average. The gap seems to be even bigger
in the biggest cities. The biggest cities tend to have
the lowest rates of reporting crimes to the police.

Speaker 1 (01:14:11):
On a kind of a policy matter, we're watching the
execution of some individuals shooting into ice vans. You look
at Charlie Kirk's assassination. You have the Democratic Attorney general
in Virginia wanting to put two bullets in the head
of his political opponent and watch his children die in
the arms of their mother.

Speaker 5 (01:14:31):
The most violent rhetoric.

Speaker 1 (01:14:33):
Have you seen a time when so called important democratic
or any politicians talk about their opposition Donald Trump as
being Hitler, They're fascists, they're Nazis. The mentally ill on
the left will act upon that, because if you have
an opportunity to kill Adolf Hitler in nineteen thirty five,
who wouldn't have taken it knowing what was coming. Have

(01:14:54):
you seen a time when they heated rhetoric about against
law enforcement, against federal officials by democratic activists? Has ever
been this loud and this high? And secondly, where does
this end? How does it end with the National Guard
in Chicago, in LA or Washington, d C. It's doing
well in DC, but the media covers this as if

(01:15:14):
Donald Trump is Hitler and Republicans are fascists and Nazis
that need to be killed. Indirectly and sometimes in Virginia,
the Attorney general candidate Jay Jones is calling for the
murder of his political opponent, and it got no national news,
It got zero NBC did thirty seven seconds on an ABC, CBS,
NPR ignores the calling for violence against federal cops. Have

(01:15:39):
you ever seen this before in this unique I hope yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:15:43):
No, it is.

Speaker 7 (01:15:43):
I mean, there are a couple of things to make
about the Virginia case. One is, he was not only
calling for the murder a Republican legislator there, but he
was saying he would kill the Republican before he would
go and kill Hitler or Paul Pott. But there was
something even more disturbing to me, and that is what

(01:16:07):
instigated that rage, and that was a Democrat moderate had
died member of the legislature, and the Republicans were had
made very.

Speaker 3 (01:16:18):
Nice eulogies about what a wonderful.

Speaker 7 (01:16:20):
Guy the guy the Democrat was, and this other Democrat
was in sensed that the Republicans said nice things about
the Democrat who had died, and and you know, I
mean that's what triggered this. And uh, you know, it

(01:16:40):
just is kind of insane that somebody would get upset
that others were saying nice things about a Democrat.

Speaker 3 (01:16:48):
And so I mean, it's it's it's.

Speaker 7 (01:16:52):
Very troubling, and uh, you know, it's And the thing is,
you know, you can't really blame the people who go
and do the violence for you know, the words of
other people, but surely there has to be some connection there.
And the thing That's particularly troubling is you know, after

(01:17:14):
President Trump was shot, Democrats were blaming Trump's rhetoric for
the violence against him, When when Charlie Kirk was assassinated,
you had many Democrats going and claiming that it was
a result of Charlie Kirk's hate speech. You know, I

(01:17:34):
suppose the one thing that I hope may come from
this it's said as it is, is that there's been
a huge increase the number of people who have watched
Charlie Kirk's YouTube videos and they can see Charlie Kirk
was a paragon of somebody who went out of his
way to be nice to people on the other side

(01:17:55):
of the debate. He heard them out, He listened to them.
You know, when somebody on the right would go and
say something hateful about gays or trans individuals, he would
call them out and tell them that we have to
love everybody basically, you know. So, you know, that's a
murderer in Utah. You know, he supposedly hated Charlie because

(01:18:22):
of you know, hate speech that Charlie had against trans
I just.

Speaker 3 (01:18:26):
Wish the individual, rather than just listening to the.

Speaker 7 (01:18:29):
Echo chamber on the left, had actually watched some of
Charlie Kirk's you know videos where he talked to people
about those issues. Because Charlie made no judgment, you know,
with regard to people doing these things. You know, if
they wanted to be gay, that's perfectly fine with him.

(01:18:52):
He had no problem with them, you know, an adult
being trans. What he drew the line at was he
was worried about, you know, thirteen fourteen year olds who
are making irreversible decisions.

Speaker 4 (01:19:03):
That's it that were there, and.

Speaker 6 (01:19:08):
You know, so.

Speaker 7 (01:19:10):
You know, but even then, there was no hate involved.
It was just concern about, you know, whether or not
somebody who's thirteen fourteen was able to make an irreversible
decision there that would sterilize them and make it so
that they wouldn't be able to go and have relationships
with other people when they got older.

Speaker 1 (01:19:32):
John, So, to me, it's absurd, and we hope to
have an independent, objective and partial media being just calling
balls and strikes that doesn't happen, John Lott, we could
talk all day, but thanks for coming on the Bill
Cunningham Show, Primeresearch dot org as all the statistics, all
the facts and the truth will set us free in
John Lott once again thanks for coming on the Bill

(01:19:54):
Cunningham Show.

Speaker 4 (01:19:55):
Thank you, John, Thank you for being there.

Speaker 5 (01:19:57):
Bill, God bless you.

Speaker 1 (01:19:58):
Let's continue so much truth right there. An apostle of
peace is gunned down, and the radical left say his
own behavior brought about his death. How despicable, go Cunningham
News Radio seven hundred word.

Speaker 5 (01:20:12):
I would not be swayed by a talk show host.

Speaker 4 (01:20:14):
He stirs the masses.

Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
Hello, quiet, I'm broadcasting.

Speaker 1 (01:20:27):
I think Joe Deeterers is talking about you. You're stirring
the masses. Is that correct?

Speaker 5 (01:20:32):
I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (01:20:33):
Yes, you admit what you do, Admit your fallacies and
your fraudulent misbehaviors. Admit everything you've done. Throw yourself upon
the mercy of the court. Segment segment, throw yourself.

Speaker 5 (01:20:44):
Will he the I have no idea, will leave the dude.

Speaker 1 (01:20:47):
Reporters of proud service of your local tame Star Heating
and air Conditioning dealers, Tamestar quality you could feel in Cincinnati,
calls Sheldon Braun at Braun Heating at five one, three, three, eight, five,
seventy seven sixty five Sports Well. The Bengals Update brought
to you by Good Spirits and Party Town thirteen convenient
locations in northern Kentucky. He is here wearing number sixteen

(01:21:12):
and taking part in his first practice as a Cincinnati Bengal.

Speaker 5 (01:21:16):
That is Joe Flacco.

Speaker 1 (01:21:18):
The story is that the Bengals sent a car for
him and his wife to Cleveland. Happen on their way
back southbound seventy one out of Cleveland past Mid Ohio
Sports Car Course and then also and the Columbus. He
was on the phone with Zach Taylor making preparations for
this Sunday. Is Joe Flacco will start for the Cincinnati

(01:21:42):
Bengals against the Green Bay Packers. Helbow Lambeau feet nine
helping him number nine? Is he helping him nine? Football?
What about Joe Burrow? Well, the thing of it is
Flacco has already faced the Packers once earlier this year.
I think guy after the after the Bengals game, I
think they played the Packers the second the Browns played

(01:22:05):
the Packers I think second or third game of the year.

Speaker 5 (01:22:07):
And beat him thirteen to ten.

Speaker 1 (01:22:08):
So he knows, he knows him already, he knows how
to beat him versus a Russell Wilson or somebody like that.
So we'll wait and see what happens. I don't know,
but he's starting. Joe Flacco will start Sunday. We're in
number sixteen. It's pretty good. Do you have any hope
for this?

Speaker 4 (01:22:25):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:22:25):
Better than Jake the Snake Browning? Would you agree? Well,
the snake just didn't have it. Willie, and they you
got to go in and you gotta win games. You
can't be you know, you can't be competing. You gotta win, right,
you gotta win and win and win. Because they got
the Sunday against the at the Packers, and then next
Thursday night, a week from tomorrow here against the Steelers.

Speaker 5 (01:22:46):
What about that?

Speaker 1 (01:22:47):
Well, then you know you gotta what if they go
to and on of those games? Well, what if they're
out four and three? What do you say?

Speaker 5 (01:22:52):
Then? The whole town about Cincinnati? What's a team? What
a team?

Speaker 1 (01:22:56):
Where's Marty when we need him? He's in Europe on
a He's in the Mediterranean. Please continue full slate of
baseball games today, Willie. And let's see Seattle in Detroit
coming up around three o'clock. Yep, got to be followed
by the Brewers and Cubs at the Friendly Confines at
five Cubs Brigley Field.

Speaker 5 (01:23:15):
Do you and me.

Speaker 1 (01:23:16):
Are you writing for Milwaukee or Cincinnati or Chicago? Which
one of your? Milwaukee? Really I don't know. I don't
like the Cubs, the Blue Jays and Yanks like their
seven o'clock. Paul O'Neill likes the Yanks. Now, Aaron Judge,
please rise. Well they did. We'll see what happens. That's
all Phillies and Dodgers.

Speaker 5 (01:23:35):
Do you like there? I don't like either one of them.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:23:38):
I love Kyle Schwarber, but I don't know. Beating the
Dodgers at home, I don't know. Reds couldn't do it?
Likely to be the Dodgers and the Brewers against the
Blue Jays and Seattle. I would think that would be
an international, you know, American League Division or American League
Championship series.

Speaker 5 (01:23:56):
What about that?

Speaker 4 (01:23:57):
Say? I?

Speaker 1 (01:23:58):
I guess I need information from you. It's plus one
hundred and sixty nine days, Willie. Until what opening day
when a pictures and catchers report. All we have is
hope in mid February. Well, we'll see what happens. Who
do you want to be at first base for the
Reds next year? Who? How about second base? What shortstop?
What's his name Dela Cruz oh or third third is

(01:24:23):
probably either just call sal or maybe K B.

Speaker 5 (01:24:27):
Hayes. I got a text here from a Bengal season
ticket older. Uh oh?

Speaker 1 (01:24:31):
Did the Bengal ownership refuse to fly Joe Flacco from
Cleveland to Cincinnati?

Speaker 5 (01:24:38):
Had to take the bus that? I don't know? Got
Johnny Kraft craft a light I could have sent its playing.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:24:45):
I don't know what. I don't know what the circumstances
are with transportation. But maybe we tried the TSA and
the air traffic and trial. Maybe why don't you find out? Okay,
why don't you find out? How do you you find out?

Speaker 5 (01:24:57):
You know, Troy Blackburn and everybody hold on them. He
takes my calls all the time. Why don't you call me?
I'm gonna call him find out.

Speaker 1 (01:25:04):
Was it a case of let's put him in a
car to have four and a half hours of study time?
Or was it the plane? Fair is too great? Craft
Electric offered his plane. The plane would have been up
and down in minutes? Right, But now Flacco is learning
at the feet of Joe Burrow. Is that Fair helping him?

(01:25:25):
Jake the snake helping him? Jake the Snake's probably helping him.
And then uh, you know, I mean he's gonna be
throwing the ball a little different. What about Zach, He's
going through the motions right now, i'd have to. I'm
sure he's down at at pay Court Stadium twenty four
to seven, getting ready for the game.

Speaker 5 (01:25:43):
We need the game segment, we need the game.

Speaker 1 (01:25:45):
So he went, if he wins Sunday, oh, everybody's house.

Speaker 5 (01:25:49):
Town is lit up if that happens.

Speaker 1 (01:25:51):
And then and then they go on and you know
Joe Flacco's history, I mean, he might be elected mayor.
What's the last time the same quarterback beat the Packer
twice in two different teams?

Speaker 5 (01:26:02):
Think about that's a very good talk to Judd. Luckup, guy.

Speaker 1 (01:26:08):
What about if some one quarterback beats a safe beat,
beats the same team of the year in the National
Football till I just said.

Speaker 5 (01:26:16):
You fool, No, I mean the other way. What do
you mean the other way? I don't know. You don't
know what you're talking.

Speaker 1 (01:26:21):
The same quarterback with two different teams beating the Packers
in the same year, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:26:27):
I don't know has happened before.

Speaker 1 (01:26:29):
I can make history at lambeau Field, right, Yeah, the
pit is like lambeau Field. I was there Friday night
with father Anthony Browse, chaplain of Elder be in that atmosphere.
I picked Mauller to win that game, reverse psychology to
help Elder. And I told Doug Ramsay, I saw before

(01:26:49):
the game, you tell your players that.

Speaker 5 (01:26:51):
I talked to the.

Speaker 1 (01:26:53):
Uh Maller faithful who said they're gonna kick your ass
in the pit and make you feel the pain of
Mauler football you. He's looked at me and said, I'm
gonna tell my team what Muller has planned for them. Now,
you didn't tell that that father about that that same
oh I told him.

Speaker 5 (01:27:07):
I told him. He didn't tell him the same same sentence,
did you?

Speaker 1 (01:27:10):
He said a prayer and set a mask before the game,
and those boys were holy running out there. They have
Elder do that. The Panthers are rolling unbelievable atmosphere, that
unbelievable atmosphere. They get ten thousand of the game there,
no matter what well. I was told that this was
the first sellout since twenty nine. Really when Cole rain

(01:27:31):
as you number one, Yes, beaten by Elder, But this
has been what sixteen years since the last sellert. They
normally filled up halfway. But ron Roost has a balcony
off to the side. Ron's Roost Chicken has a balcony
overlooking the Holy field of the pit.

Speaker 5 (01:27:52):
Were you Were you in the Ron's Roost area?

Speaker 7 (01:27:55):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:27:56):
I couldn't get there. There was too many No one
goes there anymore. It's too crowded. I couldn't get from
the field to the balcony unless I had a search
one and the failings of cops in front of me,
and it was just an atmosphere that was just unbelievable.
I went to all the static tailgating, I say, fifteen
or twenty huge tailgate parties in the parking lot starting

(01:28:16):
at four o'clock. I got there at five o'clock, two
hours early, and I was an hour late.

Speaker 5 (01:28:22):
They know how to party on the west side. Baby.
One other remarkable thing about Muller High School.

Speaker 4 (01:28:27):
H huh.

Speaker 1 (01:28:28):
I would say, in the history of state of Ohio,
Muller High School historically has the best football program in
the state over fifty years. Would you agree, yes, Now,
they don't have a home field. How many remarkable high
school football programs don't have a home field. But I'm
told now that they're gonna they're close to signing a

(01:28:49):
deal somewhere they have their own home field. They've tried
this several times. They ever worked pay Course stadium. Can't say,
but Madeira High School said no because they got enough
going on. And then they went to Princeton. They said no,
it's too Fatoyan and Lachland for years, right, And then
they went to Sycamore. Gregor Tom Gregory set up the
meeting with Sycamore. They have Muller play at Sycamore, and

(01:29:11):
Sycamore said no. Deer Park said no. People around him
said no, So get your own field. They've tried repeatedly,
most recently in Blue Ash.

Speaker 5 (01:29:20):
That thing fell apart.

Speaker 1 (01:29:21):
But now they've got some other facility that's going to
be available within three years.

Speaker 5 (01:29:26):
I'm told I can't say where it is. Don't even ask.

Speaker 4 (01:29:30):
Too bad.

Speaker 1 (01:29:30):
The College Football Hall of Fame still not out of
King's Island. They played there. It's a vagabond program that
this moves around. And they got the number one quarterback
Ponatowski in the state, and they got the top program.
But they don't have a that's like having a basketball team.
Without an arena.

Speaker 5 (01:29:46):
They don't.

Speaker 1 (01:29:47):
It's unbelievable. I agree with your whole heart. Jerry Foust
years and didn't get it done. Steve Colonne years didn't
get it done and at some point should have had it.
One day went after Jerry Fouss had a lot of
his success. Right, you put a field right there, right there,
name it after him, whatever you wanted else Jerry foul Stadium. Well,
I don't know what to tell you, but at some

(01:30:08):
point this madness has got to stop, and I hope
it stops now. And the other thing segment the rich
and the famous people like you, Yeah, that's one thing.
But I love the contributions and the and the successes
of those in high school that are not the stars,
like the Madeira girls golf team, the Roger Bacon Boys

(01:30:29):
and Girls golf team, Benwick Girls, Fenwick Girls, and then
all the Division one teams that are playing today. You
ought to get them in there. If you can win
the kids in, if they're when they're in, what if
they lose, they're out? Oh, I mean if they say,
you know, I mean the one one young lady what
had a seventy one in Kentucky. That's not bad. Did

(01:30:50):
she play every hole? Did she stip around a little bits?
In bowling green? I brought your Bacon with seventh? You know,
too bad that they couldn't. You know, Roger Bacon was
was leading at one time, and then the weather struck right, right,
they make comebacks at the end, they didn't. They didn't
complete it yesterday Tuesday because of the rain, right, and
then they only went one day because of the schedule.

(01:31:12):
If I would have played all thirty six holes, Roger
Bacon would have won. Can't play in the monsoon, can't
play and it rained like hell Yesterday're not going to
rain for a long time. You're not kidding, all right? Segment,
give me out of the Studge Report. Roger Bacon Boys
Golf makes history, but the seventh place finish in the state,
Roger Bacon Golf team will dominate.

Speaker 5 (01:31:31):
Will and honor of a better day here in the
Tri State.

Speaker 1 (01:31:34):
We leave you with the immortal words of the Stood Report.

Speaker 4 (01:31:39):
Segment. You the best?

Speaker 5 (01:31:42):
Oh it was that I don't know, Oh Chris number seventeen.

Speaker 1 (01:31:47):
Yeah, but will we ever see that again? Sabo Larkin, Duncan, Benzinger,
no O'Neill, Davis Boon Now Daniels Boone catching.

Speaker 5 (01:31:59):
What about the Boons and the Larkins in the infield
that year.

Speaker 1 (01:32:03):
The best I'm surprised I didn't win more than one.
Me too, But lou Panella went away after ninety two incomes,
Davy Johnson got close, good record, and the strike took place,
didn't play. Then Ray Knight takes over and the rest
is history. So segment, I have to think that brighter
days lie ahead. And I want to say again that

(01:32:25):
I greatly respect Tony Pike. The story's broken about his
shall always say departure from here, yes, and he left
with great shall always say class had nothing to do
with his behavior, whatsoever had to do with layoffs at
iHeartMedia according to the news story, and his posting on
social media is wonderful and Redding's finest.

Speaker 5 (01:32:48):
And also Tiff and Rodney, Tiff and Rodney.

Speaker 1 (01:32:50):
And I would say this that a lot of people
enriched this station by arriving, others in Richard by leaving.
In his case, he enriched it greatly by coming. And
his departure was sad for all the new him and
Tony Pike will survive. Gloria Gaannor style and more about
the story on the Inquiry website and also social media

(01:33:11):
broke about two and a half hours ago. I held
my fire on this because just the nature of things
in this business. There's a classic line from Godfather in
which one of the competitors of Don Coleone said, it
is the business that we have chosen, so you can't complain.
Segment any other comments done? All right, let's continue with more.

(01:33:34):
And of course Reds Baseball is now the Hot Stove
League starts next week, and the Bengals have a brand
new quarterback. And let's see what happens with Joe Flacco
in Green Bay for the pack and they have quarterbacks
up up there. When the Pittsburgh game takes place on
Thursday here of next week, eight days away, you're gonna
have two quarterbacks, both in their forties. Segment your comment

(01:33:58):
on that the old man League now got Aaron Rodgers
and you got Joe Flacco when we need Joe Flacco
to be upright?

Speaker 5 (01:34:05):
Do you agree? Correct? And more ways than one.

Speaker 1 (01:34:09):
If that happens, I suspect they can sneak up on
the Packers and do some damage with a Flacco who
wants to show he can set out some fuel left
in that tank.

Speaker 5 (01:34:19):
Who is that Bob Hopes? Bob Hope? What the Bob Hope?

Speaker 1 (01:34:22):
Still I'm not sure he's been dead for about twenty
five years though, I think, And then is he coming
back me and the Montgomery In I think right, he's
one of the great customers of Montgomery In. And the
new Bengals depth chart is out and it's Joe Flacco
on top, Browning in second place.

Speaker 5 (01:34:45):
Thank you, Bob.

Speaker 1 (01:34:46):
One of the classic interviews I've ever conducted with Bob Hope.
Then you put him on hold of a sudden son.
Sam Jones had to say, wait a minute. You understand
you're on the air, Bob. You got to talk a
little bit.

Speaker 5 (01:34:58):
Eh, Yeah, Hello, Hello, Bob, how do you do? Absolutely?
Thank you, Bob. That was a classic moment with you.

Speaker 1 (01:35:09):
A great kidden You are not kidding, sir, God bless
Tony Pike. Amen, a great number fifteen, A Hall of Famer,
Hall of Famer, good man segment.

Speaker 5 (01:35:21):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:35:21):
Let's continue with more, and I think Eddie and the
Rocker next, Jason Williams is in the Rocks got the
football Thursday night or something. I was continue with more
two fifty four. Homie, your Reds and Bengals and a
great American, Tony Pike A news radio seven hundred all
