Five o five at fifty five krcDE talk station. Happy Friday, some
say a vacation there it is.There's always confirmation that it is Friday from

(00:35):
Joe Strekker with the woo hoop andvery happy one to you it. Bran
Thomas here, always welcome in phonecalls. Feel free to steer the direction
of the conversation if you care tosomething you want to bring up. That's
great. Five point three seven ninefifty five hundred eight hundred eight two three
talk found five fifty on AT andT phones before we get to the rundown
this morning, which is really excitingfor me. Uh and I hope you
uh fifty five kr SEA dot comRamber go there and get your podcasts and

(00:56):
you can't listen to Sharon Cool Digitalexample talking about the well Citi's plan for
the future. Generally speaking, Iheard media aviation expert Jailer Atlift every Thursday
at eight thirty. Dan Hampton inthis book Vanishing Act, which sounds like
a really cool book. Doolittle's Raiders, which back in nineteen forty two obviously

(01:18):
a real terrible part of the warWorld War two, not that any part
was great, but back when thingsweren't looking as swell as they were as
we approached Normandy. And speaking ofNormandy today, Henry Armstrong returns ninety nine
year young World War II veteran,just got back for Normandy celebrating the anniversary
of the invasion. He landed onOmaha Beach June eighth, and we're going

(01:40):
to get a follow up from Henryon how his trip was. That's one
of the reasons why I mentioned amoment ago that I was really excited about
the morning show today. He willjoin the program at eight oh five.
I interviewed him after the show yesterday, keeping with his sleep schedule, which
is great. He is as sharpas attack and what a wonderful guy to
talk to before we get back tothe rundown. So you got that Dan
Hampton book about again Doolittle's Raiders,sixteen planes apparently involved in hitting various targets

(02:06):
in Japan Tokyo, among them theeighth plane, the Vanishing Act subject matter
of the book. Why did itgo to the Soviet Union? It didn't
bomb anything. It just got offthe aircraft carry like the rest of them,
and flew to the Soviet Union.Now, Dan didn't do a reveal,
so you can listen to the podcastand become intrigued and say, yeah,
I'd like to read about that.But Ice to this day don't know

(02:28):
because I didn't have time to readthe book before I talked to Dan,
which is, honestly typically the case. Usually don't even like toes, honestly,
And I didn't know Kegan Corker wasgoing to be on the program this
morning, So thank you, JoeStrecker. Joe knows how much I love
having Ron Wilson under the Spring andFall and love closing the show out on
a positive note on a Friday,And what better way to close it out

(02:51):
since Ron is taking his summer sabbatical. No, he still does his gardening
program on Saturday here at fifty fiveker City Talk Station beginning at six am,
all year long, but he spendsSpring and Fall here on Fridays closing
the show out. So since thatspring is over, officially summertime. Keegan
Corcoran from Ignition Wines are Sausmolier expert, call him Resident Samier. He doesn't

(03:15):
live here, but he's a reallyreally intelligent and fun guy. Nice guy
knows everything there is to know aboutwines in the top tier of Samlier's globally,
one step from the very top.I think he's in rarefied air among
four hundred who achieved the lofty statusof where Keegan currently stands. Anyway,

(03:36):
he's got a wholesaler. He can'tgo to ignitionwines dot com and buy wine
directly from him, but he doessell to businesses, which is what the
wholesale distributors do. And I knowseverything there is is, so we'll get
some wine recommendations for him on areally really really hot beginning of summer.
So cool now with that. SoHenry Armstrong, World War Two veteran at

(03:57):
eight oh five, King Corkor ateight thirty reseated by Ken Williamson doing a
little patriotism this morning. Ken Williamsonjust a really wonderful guy. Veteran in
veterans causes is what he's all about. It has been for a long long
time. Got the flag retirement ceremonycoming up, and I do this every
years. A real pleasure for meto do the flag retirement ceremony. I

(04:19):
think it's been more than a oh, I don't know, maybe a decade.
It's happened in a Sunday one PMUnion Township Civic Center Amphitheater on I
Colts Road. First nineteen people whobring a flag to be retired will get
a free three foot by five footflag at the end of the ceremony.
That's what it's all about, theproper disposition of flags that no longer are

(04:39):
in a condition to be flown.Have some pride in your American flag,
and if yours is torn, tattered, riped, faded, it shouldn't be
flown. And Steve Tam, andGod bless Steve Tam, he's struggling with
some health issues, veteran Steve Tam. This has been a passion of his
for decades. And Steve is oneof those guys who does not abide he

(05:00):
sees a tattered flag as he makesit around town. And he can do
that lest these days, given hisstatus to his health. And we're all
praying for you, Steve. Butto make a point of going in and
knocking on doors you see him aripped up flag flying from somebody's house or
a business that's displaying a tattered flag, he'd get in there and get not
get in their face necessarily, butpoint out that it is disrespectful to the

(05:25):
American flag to fly one that isin tatters, and he would kindly ask
them to take it down and evenoffer to give them a free replacement.
That's kind of guy. Steve isso very respectful of the flag. And
it's a nice tradition to do thisbecause again, you know, we could
all use a shot of a patriotismand infusion of patriotism from time to time.
And I always walk away from thatevent with one, so hopefully a

(05:46):
lot of people will show up.It's typically not that well attended. Got
the boy scouts there in walking throughthe process of properly disposing of a flag,
what the flag means, what thecolor fields mean, so real honor,
respect and that again Sunday Hope,I see you there. Information fifty
five care sea dot com. There'sa rundown, of course, preceded by
Ken Williamson. He'll be on atseven thirty tech front of a Dave Hatter.

(06:10):
Tired of scams. Here's one we'vebeen talking about forever. Don't answer
the phone. That's the summary ofthe first topic of conversation. We can
just get rid of it right there. Tired of scams, don't answer the
phone. This has been my defaultrule like forever. Since caller ID comes
up, I see a number Idon't recommend, Why would I don't recognize?
Why answer it? If it's important, they'll leave a message. You

(06:31):
can call him right back. Quiteoften, if they leave a message,
you'll realize that it was the rightthing to do by not answering the phone.
He gets some recorded message. Itpicks up halfway through talking about some
you know, outstanding item that youowe. You know, like I don't
know that. I can go tomy credit card company online and log in
through the appropriate WED so I canfind out whether or not a charge has

(06:53):
been made, or whether or nota behind with my bill. Ninety nine
point nine percent of the time,I will argue, we'll see what Dave
has to say about it. Thatit is spam. It's crap, someone's
trying to rip you off. Happenedto a dear loved one for mine the
other days felt just so badly.Also, Google admits that it's artificial intelligence
top sort. It is the artificialintelligence top source of online information. Cool.

(07:16):
Google's own AI and artificial intelligence learningto lie and deceive. That is
frightening. Becoming a sentient being Artificialintelligence anyway, I can start with some
tech related things. Since you blowingthrough this segment rather quickly again five one

(07:39):
two three talk disturbing article. Youcan find it for yourself. It's been
widely re reported on the newsdomp site'sinstagram, Meta's Instagram is feeding your young
people pornography. That sums it uppretty much. They regularly recommend sexual videos

(08:01):
to accounts for teenagers, any teenagerthat appears to be interested in any racy
content. It's kind of a progressionthe way I boil this whole article down.
They did this study the Wall StreetJournal and some other experts, Laura
Edelson one of them, computer scienceprofessor at Northeastern University. What they did
is they signed up identifying themselves asa thirteen year old and waited to see

(08:26):
what Instagram fed to them. Andit starts out incrementally. You know,
you'll get some you know, photographsof some women, busty women or chesty
women's people in provocative posts. It'snot naked or performing sexual acts, but
if you click on those, ifyou show interest in those, it ratchets
up the level of sexuality the pointwhere you are staring at you know,
well, genitalia or sexual acts ordvmacts, most of which I would like

(08:50):
to think parents out in the worldwouldn't want they're thirteen years old to be
witnessing. And it actually it wasstrange thing about it in the more an
affairarious reality about this. It's worse, this feeding of sexualized content. The
researchers found it's worse for the teenagerthan it is for an adult account.

(09:11):
And meta claims all, we're doingeverything we can, blah blah blah,
but yeah, whatever, Okay,what you say you are doing and the
steps you have taken thus far overthe course of your Instagram life may be
better now than it was before,but it's still not working, they say.
Adult sex content creators began appearing inthe feeds in as little as three

(09:31):
minutes and after less than twenty minuteswatching reels, which I suppose is the
video feed part of Instagram. Don'tknow because I'm not on it. No
desire even though I am in youknow media, I need. This drives
my employer crazy. How come youdon't have a bigger social media presidence because
I don't want to abide, Idon't want to participate in this stuff.

(09:54):
It's bad for people generally speaking.It doesn't foster and encourage debate, and
it doesn't foster encourage, you know, critical thinking. I like to think
the Morning Show does. I tryto get you thinking, and I try
to get myself thinking through content andexchange of thoughts and ideas. It's a
static, it's a feed. You'remindlessly staring at whatever Instagram decides to throw
your way anyway. The test accountsfeeds, Remember they're thirteen year olds identified

(10:20):
in these test accounts, they tellmeta how old the person is. Dominated
by promotions for creators, some offeringto send nude photos to users who engage
with their post. Engage you withthe post merely hovering your mouse over the
top of it and watching it.Edelson said. All three platforms also say
that there are differences in what contentwill be recommended a team's three platforms,

(10:43):
meaning Snapchat, TikTok, and Instagram. Hey here's me, not trying to
defend TikTok, but apparently TikTok isa lot better about keeping this content away
from your young people than Instagram.And from what I understand, everybody's got
an Instagram account, So you'll wonderwhy your team is staring at it intently
all day long. Maybe we've stumbledupon the reality. So see if you
can find the article. It's justit's food for thought, and it's for

(11:07):
well parents out there who really caretake stock and information like this because you
two can prevent it from seeping inand polluting the minds of your children.
Five sixteen fifty five kre CD talkstation. And don't go to the hospital
imaging department to get images. Ispointed out many many, many many times,
thousands of dollars out of your pocket. That is what is you are

(11:28):
staring at when you go to getyour CT scan or your MRI, your

How much of your insurance is goingto cover it? And why in
the hell are they charging thousands,five thousand dollars for a CT scan?

Caro City Talk Station. I'm JoeBiden, and I approve this message.
Day keep your stupid mouth shut.I love that guy. Ft twenty one
on a Friday, Little Get Youout of Bed music, Motorhead, I

(13:46):
get I'll tell you how It TellIt five twenty one on a Friday,
ifive one thirty sevent four nine fiftyfive hundred, eight hundred and eight to
two three talk. Trump campaign's goingfull on after the cheap fakes comments from
the Biden administration. Speaking of otherthings tech related. Remember Bidenomics. Yeah,

(14:11):
Joe Biden and the White House rolledout the Bidenomics phrase, and they
tried to do it with Glee andDelai talking about how wonderful everything is under
Bidenomics. Hey, Bidenomics is helpingyou out. Bidenomics is good. That
didn't work out so well for meand you never hear them use the term
anymore because it's a bad word.Bidenomics to the rest of us is the
realities of paying twenty percent more forour groceries, and a whole lot more

(14:35):
for our gasoline, and a wholelot more for our energy when our salaries
have not risen enough to cover thecost of the increases. You know the
whole story. You're living it,you go to the grocery store. We
all are Bidenomics bad, right,It's turned into an evil term, a
bad term. Well, I youknow, I actually felt embarrassed with the
Biden administration the other day with KreamGene Pierre and others referring to these real

(14:56):
videos as what they call cheap fakes, a made up term. Deep is
artificial intelligence created. It is afake thing, cheap fakes. What the
hell does that mean? Well,if you get the explanation from the White
House, it means it's sort oftaken out of context. It is real
video, but it's taken out ofcontext. It's been altered in some way.
They have zoomed in on some smallportion of a video or cut out

(15:20):
the rest of the dea that providescontext for why Joe Biden is not the
doddering idiot that he comes across inall these videos. Well, as I
pointed out just the other day,you know, this is the president of
the United States of America. He'son the global stage. There's more than
one camera in the room. Goahead and compare the relative videos to each

(15:41):
other and see if we're being deceivedin any way, shape or form.
White House, Why don't you rollout the whole thing and provide the context
that you think is missing from thevideo. That will that'll, you know,
assuage our concerns that Joe Biden haslost his mind, at least in
so far as cognitive decline is concern. They don't do that. They just

(16:02):
point the finger and label it cheapfakes and want you to believe that you
don't believe your own eyes. Well, Trump campaign they rolled out a response
on social media to this, andthey're just they're grabbing the bull by the
horns and running with it. WonderfulThey defined cheap fake, cheap fake.

(16:22):
Now any video of Joe Biden's cognitivedecline that the Biden administration does not want
the public to see wonderful, definitionand accurate. They also rolled out of
social media quote that says the following, There's a reason Biden staffers have posted
about unedited, undoctored clips of JoeBiden overs sixty times in an absolute panic.

(16:47):
Biden's obvious weakness is no. Cheapfake propaganda propagated by the Biden White
House and their mouthpieces in the mainstreammedia doesn't change reality. Biden's weakness is
obvious for all his see and thenbullet points at the American people see it.
Members of Congress see it, Democratofficials see it. The Justice Department
sees it. And that's kind offunny because that's a specific reference to the

(17:10):
Her report. Remember, Joe Bidendid illegally takes top secret documents. He
did have them when he wasn't evenpresident of the United States of America,
when he was sentate. He keptthem in various locations over periods of decades.
It was a crime. Hurr pointedit out, but no jury would
ever commit Joe Biden because of hisdecline and his inability to recall things.

(17:33):
So Her independently is confirmed what allof our eyes see on these chief fake
videos. Anyway, foreign nation,foreign nation sees it. Our advertary,
our advisionary see it. They concluded. In fact, Biden's own staff sees
it, from staging his events,to providing lists of pre approved reporters a
call on, to changing the shoeshe wears, to surrounding him when he

(17:57):
walks to and from Marine one,to making him use this short stairs,
which I think has availed reference.That's true to the short bus. Remember
those, Joe, Remember the shortbus five twenty five, John, If

break five on three seven, four, nine fifty eight hundred and eighty three.
Talk John. Happy Friday to you, sir, Well, Happy Friday
to you. Brian. Hey,I first time call a long time listener.

(20:32):
I just saw something in the leadstory on BBC this morning, BBC
News. Yeah, and it washow the children are suffering and starving and
not having water in Gossip and theyshow they gave their warning ahead of time,
this may be disturbing and all that. And they showed a nine year

(20:55):
old boy who was laying in abed nothing but skin, and by I
mean just just totally decinating and howhe was doing that way because no water
and food and things. And thenthey had his mother sitting beside him,

(21:15):
and she was perfectly fine, Imean and perfectly fine. And then they
showed a little girl and her dadwas the same way, and her dad
was sitting beside her. He wasperfectly fine. I mean, he could

(21:40):
perfectly built, perfect everything about him. And I'm thinking, Okay, why
are these parents looking so great iftheir kids are starving and don't have water.
Well, that's a legitimate observation inquestion, John, it could be
that maybe the video is manipulated,maybe they're misrepresenting the medical status of that

(22:03):
child. The parents are fine,obviously, it sounds like they're well fed,
and not having seen the article,I'm just speaking off what you've given
me. But if the parents lookgood, they look well nourished and fed,
it could be that the child isnot struggling from malnourishment or dehydration,
that the child has something more seriousgoing on, like maybe cancer or some
other disease state that's caused them tolook that way. In spite of the

(22:25):
fact that maybe he's got enough foodand water. I don't know. I'm
left to speculate, but I thinkyou and I can both degree and this
modern times, with manipulation out thereas easy as it is, and people
with agendas wanting to convince you thatthings maybe are better or worse than they
actually are, or to favor aparticular position, political or otherwise, they
might manipulate, They might lie toyou. You ever been down that road

(22:48):
before, You've ever been lied to, ever been manipulated? Find out later
that all, well, maybe amask doesn't work. And it's widely known
that yet for the last several years, they've been telling us to put a
damn mask on one of many illustrationsthat are streaming through my head right now.
So, yeah, I appreciate yourapproach to media. Be jaded,
be cynical, be skeptical, stepback and look at the surroundings. Maybe

(23:11):
don't Maybe maybe they shouldn't assume thecamera back and shown mom and dad.
Maybe it would have been a cheapfake had they just kept the camera focused
on the starving, purportedly starving orundernourished, malnourished child, rather than pulling
back and showing you that everybody elsein the room look good. Don't know,
maybe it's a failure on their partin that regard in the final analysis,

(23:34):
I mean capable of commenting on that. I do not know, but
I do understand where your skepticism comesfrom. It's the point from which I
spring. Every single day you getdaya, oh well, here's an update,
got local stories? I got timefor at least one? And why
not make touch on my head?Dinard? The subject matter four years after

(23:59):
the public bribery scandal rock Cincinnati CityHall, so reported the WCPO Craig Cheetham,
ex councilman to Myron and Ort findan Art finally free again. Yesterday,
US District Judge Susan Deltt terminated hercourt ordered supervised release. She pleaded

might remember him, Jeff Pastor,also convicted sentence in federal prison for accepting
cash as part of the scheme toexchange their votes for money. Dannard accepted
fifteen thousand dollars in exchange for hervotes Pastor pleaded guilty, serving a two
year prison sentence, and Sittenfeld convicteda trial sentence of sixteen months, served

(24:45):
about four and a half months ofhis sentence. Last month, six Court
of Appeals granted Sittenfeld's motion for releasefrom prison while his case is under appeal,

five hundred eight hundred eight two tothree doc more numbers and Joe Keenly as
stude to the fact that I wasin Yellowstone from the vacation at least part

(28:15):
of the vacation, pulled a coupleof stack of stupid stories out. Thank
you Joe. First off, wedidn't get the sceney grizzly bears. We
were disappointed by that and the ownersof the place that we again we were
the high bidders at a charity auctionbenefiting SIDS. Charlie and Trapes lost their
daughter to SIDS. Oh we're talkingalmost thirty years ago, but they did

(28:36):
a fundraiser every year. We werethe high bidder on the home beautiful place.
Thank you again to the Googa Times. They're super special people. But
there's bear spray at that place,and they had like Rose and Rose bears,
take the bear spray with you whereveryou go. This was the strong
words of advice we got over andover again from Pete Guganheim, make sure
you take the bear spray. Sowe expect to see these things around every
corner, not one, not anywherein any of the parks we went on.

(29:00):
So it's a little bit of adisappointment, but you know what,
I didn't really need to see agrizzly bear run around the corner. Well,
we have a tourist that filed acomplaint at Yellowstone because well, there
were no grizzly bears. This isthe wording from the complaint. Yellowstone National
Park Lodges experienced survey a point out. We started to do everything we can

(29:22):
to make you stay enjoyable. Forany reason in the room the cabin needs
attention or maintenance or housekeemming to farmto let us know, please complete the
form leave it in the room.The form says quote concern. Our visit
was wonderful, but we never sawany bears. Please train your bears to
be where the guests can see them. This was an expensive trip to not
get to sea bears. The YellowstonePark Service has clear guidance to protect you

(29:51):
from being an idiot and getting involvedwith bears. Habituated bears are still wild
bears incapable of inflicting serious injury ordeath. For your safety, remain within
your vehicle when viewing and photographing roadsidehabituated bears. Always pull completely off the
road into pay pullouts. When stoppingto view bears. Make sure your vehicle
is in park and you engage youremergency break. Never approach crowd or surround

(30:11):
bears. Running in the presence ofbears may trigger a chase and attack response.
Proper viewing and photographing etiquette will helpkeep both you and the roadside habituated
bears safe. Thank you for theNational Park Service. Yeah, we got
a lot of warnings about bears.And depending upon the type of bear,
whether you stay in place or runor basically just defecate yourself and prepare to

(30:36):
die. That just depends on thekind of bear. And In further Yellowstone
related news, idiots doing idiot thingsbecause they're idiots. Although I feel sorry
for this eighty three year old womanseriously injured at Yellowstone having been gored by
a while buffalo. Durris from Greenville, South Carolina targeted by the bison June
first at Stormpoint Trail bison, defendingits space, came within a few feet

(31:00):
of the woman and lifted her abouta foot off the ground with its horns.
According from the park statement, thewoman sustained serious injuries taken to hospital
in Idaho by a helicopter. Incidentremains under investigation. But I will tell
you we were walking and it's funnybecause the admonishment from the Park Service is

(31:21):
to say, right here, it'sirresponsible to stay more than twenty five yards
away from all large animals bison,elk, bighorn, cheap deer, moose,
and coyotes, and at least onehundred yards away from bears and wolves.
If need be, move or turnaround, go the other way.
Well, obviously this didn't happen.I will point out though, as we
were walking to the along the trailsby Old Faithful and the Grand Guyser,

(31:45):
which we saw, there are twobison literally I think six or seven feet
off the trail, off the sidewalk. They are right there. So the
bison are not paying attention to thetwenty five yard rule. I guess you
got to look out for yourself.This isn't the first time this happens.

(32:06):
Last month and Idaho man arrested afterallegedly kicking a Yellowstone bison in the leg.
Wild drunk idiot Clarence Yoder, fortyyears old from Idaho Walls ended up
injuring himself in the incident. Accordingto the NPS statement on that one,
rangers responded anary after receiving report ofan individual who harassed or heard of bison

(32:27):
and kicked a bison in the leg. They located the suspects vehicle near the
West Entrance stopped them in the townof West yellow Tone. Yoder arrested and
charged with one being under the influenceof alcohol to a degree that may endanger

our color online. Let's hear fromBobby this morning Bobby, Happy Friday.
Hey, Happy Friday, my brother, faith, flag, family, and
firearms. When you got those,you're always going to have freedom, hope.
So, my friend, I hopewe aren't put to the test in
that regard. But I'm with you. Well, I've got a concern,

(35:32):
Brian, and you know this,and you're a Cincinnati native. How many
city officials do you think will endup losing with all this money coming from
Columbus for improvements to Cincinnati. Welost a few before, Jeff Pastor and
a few other thans that green andgratuity. So with all the money coming

(35:54):
down here in Cincinnati, who youthink will be the next couple weeks.
Well, I'm quick to point outsince this is state money, I guess
a lot of the projects are goingto be funded. The Senate version of
the capital Budget's got like one hundredand sixteen million coming our way of a
total of seven hundred million allocated inthe State Plan Center bill to eighty eight
three hundred and fifty million. It'sapparently second half of one time expenditures.

(36:17):
I think the corruption money came fromhands in the pockets of donors and campaign
donors as opposed to the state Sothe money I think in this particular case,
is probably going to go to theprojects. It's been allocated to specific
projects, which sort of cuts councilout of it. Now, that doesn't
mean the council won't have some sayover who's actually going to do the construction

(36:39):
and building on these projects. ButI certainly appreciate where your humor's coming from.
Anytime there's big fat bank involved andyou've got corrupt politicians, which you
know when you basically malignant narcissist sociopathsare the only ones that run for office,
that certainly comes at a risk.Keep the faith there, Bobby,

(36:59):
always a pleasure hearing from him.Back to the stack of stupid. A
group of friends had an unusual Thursdayafternoon when they found a nearly naked guy
standing in the living room as atradition. Complete stranger, bleed to be
homeless, entered the home in theyard through an unlocked door, startling the
people in the home. Wearing nextto nothing. The men said, the
stranger made himself at home, usedthe bathroom, took a shower, and

(37:20):
even started snacking while they begged himto leave. What fraid to leave the
guy alone with the property, saidtheir friend tried to keep his distance while
pleading with the man. According toresident Ash went Ready, he ate a
banana sitting in the chair in thekitchen, refused to leave, Thanks Joe,
and he's like, now I needto sleep. Ready facetiming with his
friend and the stranger alreadeal unfolded.He said, I was like call nine

(37:44):
one one, What are you doing? Ready said. He pushed him out,
and the guy started asking for aplace to sleep after eating. When
the intruder went outside, Ready's friendlocked the door, saying he was scared
by the scars on the man's back, and two intimidated to call the police.
Stranger ended up mapping in the yardstayed for three hours. When Reddy's

(38:04):
friend finally called the police, officersquickly arrived and arrested the intruder on the
sidewalk outside. Okay, here's abad idea. Go to Columbus, Ohio.
Man in jail after punching a Columbuspolice officer in the face to Shawn
Barnes, how are you doing that? Maybe we'll find out me. DeShawn
Barnes thirty five to eleven in Ohio, charge with one kind of assaultant a

(38:25):

guy walking in the area of SouthHigh Street in Sycamore. They got there,
they saw the suspect, Barnes,wearing a pair of loose fitting cargo
shorts that kept falling down. Didthe attempted to take custody of Barnes.
He allegedly ran from the scene.During the chase, Barnes punched a Columbus

(38:46):
police officer once in the left sideof his face, causing damage to the
officer's eye. He was arrested takinga Franklin County jail, scheduled appear in
Franklin County Court on Tuesday. Ifyou're not doing anything, officer remained at
a local hospital. Naked guy,let's see here, how about this one?
Go to link Nebraska and Nebraska.Man arrested Friday morning after exposing himself

(41:30):
see. We'll be talking about thatwith Dave coming up shortly in an hour
from Dave. Ken Williamson, truepatriot. Ken Williamson is seven thirty with
Ken. He's gonna be talking aboutthe flag retirement ceremony in the Union Township,
something that I've been involved with fora really long time. Just do
a little facilitating, you know,we get the pledge and we do the
pipes and we have veterans there,and we have got a boy scout troop

(41:52):
there and learn about how to properlydispose of a flag. If you've got
a flag that's tattered and torn,please you can choose to come to the
event drop it off. If you'reone of the first nineteen, you get
a replacement flag. I believe,a three by five inch brand new American
flag. But f yours is intatters, do the right thing, respectfully,
dispose of it in the proper way. You'll learn that way at the

(42:12):
flag retirement ceremony. Alternatively, veteransorganizations, including you know, Ken Williamson
and the VFW, they will collecttattered flags and we'll see that they are
disposed of properly. So respect yourflag. That's it's something near and dear
to my heart. And I stilllook at the flag and consider it a
unifying symbol of freedom. That's yourfreedom and your freedom to choose your life

(42:37):
direction, and my freedom and myfreedom to choose my life direction. It's
amazing we can live in a countrywhere we allow that. Well, up
until recently, it seems the onlydirection you're allowed to believe in, apparently
is the left's direction, and theleft set of ideological principles and I find
that offensive. Henry Armstrong, Ohmy god, it is going to be

(42:58):
this and I I'll a bit.I interviewed Henry after the program yesterday about
nine o'clock. Henry World War twoveteran, ninety nine years young, the
guy is sharp as a tack,and talked to him about a month or
so ago in anticipation of his visitto Normandy which just took place for the
anniversary of the invasion, and Henrytalked about his time he landed on Omaha
Beach during the Normandy invasion on Juneeighth. Killed the tree, this great

(43:24):
story. He said. A shellblew up and he and his his buddies
were right there and they saw whatthey thought was a German soldier right there
and they unloaded. It was atree. So I got a follow up
on the tree with Henry, butalso about his time there during the anniversary
and his experiences. So that's ateight oh five. That's appointment listening.

(43:45):
Alternatively, it'll be on the podcastpage bit five care Sea dot com.
Keegan Corcoran, my somolier friend,Keegan, wonderful guy. He's going to
be in at a thirty And whynot, says Joe Strecker. It's Friday.
Let's talk about some wines. Maybehe's got special wine recommendations for one
hundred degree one hundred percent humidity weather. Don't know, but it's always a

(44:05):
good time talking with Keegan about wines. He'll be on at eighty thirty to
close out the show on what Ihope to believe is going to be a
positive note. Since Ron Wilson ison his summer break, tune into his
program throughout the year six a m. Saturdays here at fifty five kr C
Detalk Station UH. And going backto Bobby's point, Bobby's a little concerned
because and I did mention just inbrief as far as local cash infusion Columbus.

(44:29):
They're negotiating and they're actually the rollingout legislation capital budget specifically, and
some money is coming our way majorgreater since a projects could be collecting one
hundred and sixteen and a half milliondollars from the Senate version of the Capitol
budget. Now this is going tobe reconciled with the House version, which
has different allocations in it. Butanyway, seven hundred million dollars in the

(44:49):
Center version overall, not all ofit coming to Cincinnati. So I have
Sentate Bill two eighty eight has threehundred and fifty million dollars described as the
second half of one time ex spendituresState is making on a whole host of
physical, physical infrastructure projects. MattHuffman, Senate President. He said,
the additional seven hundred million gives thegeneral assembling opportunity to reinvest in our communities.

(45:13):
These are projects that people notice becausethey make a difference every day in
the neighborhood. All right, let'slook at these. I guess out of
the Senate bill, Duke Energy ConventionCenter expected to receive forty six million dollars.
Apparently the city had requested or thecounting maybe fifty million dollars for the
overhaul. The total project apparently twohundred and nine million dollars, so it
kind of takes the edge off ofthat. So forty six million dollars for

(45:37):
Duke Energy Convention Center. That isthe biggest item in the capital spending money
coming our way. Presumably Cincinnati OpenProfessional Tennis tournament. MM, they're getting
twenty seven and a half million dollarsin the Senate bill. They're doing a
two hundred and sixty million dollar plannedexpansion, So just I don't know,

(46:00):
kind of reminds me of Paul BrownStadium. It's sports, the idea that
we're working hard and we're laboring hardover a sport that maybe you and I
might not even bother participating in.How much money do we get as a
return on investment for that? Ihave no idea, but having so many
conversations with Dave Williams and the TaxpayerProtection Alliance on the actual return on investment
for anything sports related, it usuallyis nowhere near what we spend to do

(46:22):
it. But there you go.That's Columbus twenty seven and a half million
dollars you see, Health sixteen pointseventy five million dollars eight million for a
new music venue at Coney Island wherethey bulldoze sunlight pull nine point seventy five
million dollars for Xavier University College ofOsteopathic Medicine eight and a half million to

(46:44):
build a new interchange for Ice seventyfive at Milliken Road, which according to
the reporting. I'll give credit toLocal twelve as well as the Cincinni Business
Courier, both providing facts on thisthis new interchange at I seventy five Milliken
Road could lead to seven hundred acresof development. That to me sounds like

(47:07):
a worthwhile capital expenditure. If youbuild it, they will come. It's
like the interstate highway system. Privatemoney probably couldn't have done it, even
though I know I've got some ofmacro capitalists out there to think that all
road buildings should be private. Everyinterstate highway came with on ramps and off
ramps, and every one of thoseprovided an opportunity for independent people to invest

(47:30):
in businesses. And guess what happened. That's exactly what happened. It helped
grow our economy. So maybe thisone, with seven hundred acres of additional
development as a consequence of this interchangewill do the same thing. It sounds
positive anyway. That's all I knowabout it. Anyway. First half of
the package that was house Built twopassed in February twenty two million dollars for

(47:50):
the convention center, thirteen point seventyfive for the tennis tournament, eight million
for the music venue in Coney,six million for the capital improvements of the
Cincinni Technical and Community College, amongothers. So these two bills will be
reconciled and once done so sent tothe Governor for his signature to become law.
As is the case remember your schoolhouserock. Now, going back to

(48:13):
Bobby's point talking about to Tamaid inours PG Sittinfeld and Jeff Pastor getting in
trouble well soliciting money in return forfavors. He kind of wondered about all
this money flowing and whether we mightrun into some more corruption issues. And
I thought, now, first,all the money's been allocated to specific projects,
and the trouble they got into isthey were it was like organizations out

(48:35):
there wanting to develop certain projects andlooking for city money. This money has
been allocated by Columbus, but whodoes the work and whether it's going to
be done properly? And I turnedto this is insanity, absolute insanity.
Los Angeles, where they have asignificant homeless problem. You may have read
about it. They got a newhigh rise residential tower for the homeless,

(49:01):
six hundred thousand dollars per unit,two hundred and seventy eight units, nineteen
story development. It's called Wineguard Tower, described as intending to help people currently
without shelter on skid row described alsoas LA's largest permanent support housing project.

(49:27):
Building contains entire floor of offices forcaseworkers, along with a gym, art
room, music room, computer room, and library. Each unit again at
two hundred and seventy eight units sixhundred thousand dollars a pop. And it's
interesting because I was giving credit toBreitbart on this one. The cost to
build each unit in the homeless highrise higher than the median price of condominiums

(49:52):
in Los Angeles, which come inat five hundred and sixty four thousand dollars.
Now, of course less than singlefamily medium price in Los Angeles for
a home at one point three million, But still, are you serious you're
gonna solve the homeless problem? Twohundred and seventy three units. They've got
tens of thousands of homeless people atsix hundred grand to pop. And remember

(50:14):
that's the build cost, maintenance andupkeep. I am sure are going to
be a sizeable expenditure on a goingforward basis. Was this a responsible use
of taxpayer dollars? Question? NowI know the answer to that question in
my mind. I'll let you drawyour own conclusions. You think of if
they'd have done this in a moremodest way if they'd have done this any

(50:35):

up. Don't vote Democrats, Andthere's another reason for that. Manhattan District
Attorney Alvin Bragg has dropped all chargesagainst thirty students and staff members who were
arrested during the Columbia University campus takeover. No doubt, Joe, And here's

(52:30):
I had a comment about this before. You know, maybe if the January
sixth protesters that all just masked up, they might not have been pursued.
They might not have been prosecuted.And I just cite this the statement about
this according to the judge Kevin McGrath, announcing in the courtroom, all these

(52:50):
matters are dismissed and sealed in theinterest of justice. They took over Hampton
Hall of Columbia University and the academicbuilding. Initially charged with trespass in the
third degree, which is a misdemeanorprosecuted, the Manhattan District Atorney's office said
there was ready insufficient evidence to showthat any individual defendant damage property or injured

(53:13):
anyone, also noting that protesters woremasks and covered surveillance cameras, suggesting at
least from my perspective, that itmight have been a little difficult to pin
a charge on any one of theseindividuals because they're masked up and they covered
the security cameras. So I'll basicallycover your tracks and they won't prosecute you.

(53:34):
That's the takeaway, disparate treatment ofthe law. Maybe let you decide
and go back to the homeless.This is kind of an interesting allocation of
resources, and I'm sure Scarce OnesPortland, Oregon's had a huge problem with
homeless and high crime and the highcost of dealing with it. Analysis in

(54:00):
the counties of Multoma, Washington andClackamus is be the Greater Oregon area by
ECCHO Northwest. Local governments and nonprofitsshelled out five hundred and thirty one million
dollars for homeless what they call interventions. According to the outlet The Huge,
Incas Fox News reporting a huge increasedriven in part by a nearly ninety million

(54:23):
dollars in federal ready pandemic relief fundsas well as a regional homeless tax approved
by voters in twenty twenty, sohalf a billion dollars. Question, has
it solved the problem? The answerabsolutely no. Although rather than build six
hundred and sixty thousand dollars per unitcondos for the homeless, in February,

(54:45):
Portland leaders bought one hundred tiny homepods at a cost of sixteen, five
hundred and ten dollars each, amuch better value than the idiots in Los
Angeles, although it's reported here thatthese structures have a life of five years.
But they do come with a warrantybetting a bed and a heater in

(55:07):
each one of these homeless shelters.Anyway, half a billion dollars and then
finally we'll stay out West and goto San Francisco and see if this is
fair bord to San Francisco Supervisors.Supervisors rather approved legislation earlier this week instituting
a curfew on certain businesses in theTenderloin district, which is described as crime

(55:30):
ridden. Not a curfew on people, mind you, but a curfew on
the businesses, specific businesses. Thisreminds me of a COVID lockdown kind of
a rule. Rules will prevent businessesin the Tenderloin from selling prepackaged food or
tobacco products from operating between midnight andfive am. Businesses that sell liquor close

(55:52):
later between two and five am.Go ahead and try to make some sense
out of that corner. To theMayor, London, breed drug markets happening
at night in this neighborhood are unacceptableand must be met with increased law enforcement
and new strategies. But this mustbe done in partnership with community, which
we are doing, whatever that means. So rather than going after the bad

(56:13):
guys, the drug dealers, themarkets that are existing, the people who
are committing the crimes, the peoplewho are loitering, abusing, defecating on
this street and otherwise making life miserable, in the Tenderloin district. They're going
to close the businesses. Great,there's another reason why you're happy you don't

It's always a pleasure talking with you, Always a pleasure to chat with you,
Brian, There's always something to chatabout. Unfortunately, unfortunately, Yeah,

(01:00:22):
in the world text it is it'susually bad news too, or frightening
news, and something you and Ihave been talking about for years. A
default that I have gone to foryears now, if you don't recognize the
number, and in some cases evenif you recognize it, don't answer the
phone. Yeah, this is reallysound advice because you know, scammers are

(01:00:44):
everywhere, especially on phones now,because if you think about it, your
phone is a multifaceted portal to you, whether it's text, whether it's a
phone call, whether it's some appyou have on the phone. People are
spending more time on their phone thanever before, and sadly, scammers use
that phone not only directly through phonecalls, which I'll come back to,

(01:01:04):
but you know, any number ofdifferent channels they can reach you through that,
and they use spoofing to cover theirtracks. So it's easy to spoof
or fake a phone number which couldbe used for a voice caller of text.
It's easy to spoof an email address, it's easy to spoof an entire
website. You know, they'll takeover your friend's accounts. Just recently,

(01:01:27):
accounts taken over, and it's usuallybecause they don't turn on multi factor authentication
or two factor authentication, that additionalstep, and where they have bad passwords
that are easy to gas crack orhave been leaked somewhere. And you know,
if I can take over your Facebookaccount, I can spoof you and
impersonate you, and then you know, use it for nefarious purposes to like

(01:01:49):
pretend like I'm selling stuff or whatever. You know, there's that additional bit
of legitimacy until someone realizes your account'sprobably been hacked. So you know,
there's all these different ways to comeat you. They use spoofing then to
cover their tracks into a peer legitimateand social engineering. You know, social
engineering and spoofing almost always go handin hand because I want to appear to

(01:02:09):
be legitimate, so I spoof orimpersonate something, and then I tell you,
oh, you know, there's someterrible thing that's happened. You need
to do X, Y or Z. Catch you off guard, get you
concerned about something and not thinking aboutdoes this make sense? So you're right
on the money. Your best betis to never answer a call from any

(01:02:30):
number that's not already in your contactlist because of the spoofing factor. Right,
I mean, if you simply don'trecognize the number, I definitely don't
answer that. Right, Even ifI do recognize the number and when I
say recognized, I mean it's notin my contact but it looks like it
might be legit. Oh that happensall the time. You get a five
to one three area code with theinitial three digit that looks like something you

(01:02:53):
know, or maybe even mirror yourowns. You're like, well, this
may be somebody that I know.I know. I always let it go
into voicemail. It's a common tacticthey'll use because again, it's easy to
spoof a phone number. It's easyto generate a phone number that looks like
a legitimate pattern for a given area. You know, it might look familiar.
I get calls all the time andsay that number looks familiar to me,

(01:03:14):
but maybe it's just close. Idon't know, So yeah, I
just let it go to voicemail ifit's not already in my contacts list,
because again, it's so easy tospoof that phone number, and I know
people think, oh, well,you know, even if I get a
scammer on the phone and they're notgoing to scam me. You have to
understand how a good these people areat running a con and then b in

(01:03:37):
many cases, thanks to year afteryear after year of breaches and leaks of
your data or perhaps even data youmade available because you just had to take
that which little mermaid quism I onFacebook. These people have lots of information
about you, and in many casesthey'll do some work on the back end,
so you might get a call thatclaims to be from the Hamletin County

(01:03:59):
Sheriff's off for example. You knowyou've got a fine, We've got a
warrant. You know these law enforcementwarrants about these all the time. If
you go to the FBI's Internet CrimeComplaints Center I see three dot gov,
you'll find copious examples of this,and they will have done the research.
You know. I can go rightnow to the Hamlin County Sheriff's Office website
and find the name of actual shriff'sdeputies. I can get actual phone numbers.

(01:04:23):
I can find actual email addresses,so when I'm talking to you,
I will send extremely legitimate as I'myou know, telling you your tale of
woe and what you need to doso and again, I may have enough
information about you that I found online, I bought off the Dark Web or
whatever, to you know, makeit feel like I really know who you

(01:04:44):
are and that I'm a legitimate actorand whatever type of scam I'm trying to
run. So I know this soundscrazy to people, but I've been in
an interview with an FBI agent anda Hamlin County Sheriff's deputy where they talked
about actual, real world instances ofvictims they've talked to that have been,
you know, hit with these kindof scams. This is a real thing.

(01:05:05):
Again, go to IC three dotgov see for yourself, and then
right back to where you start,a Brian. Your best bet, frankly,
is never answer the phone from acaller you don't know. Let it
go to voicemail, and then havea healthy dose of skepticism even with the
voicemail, and vet that information carefully. Don't call the numbers they gave you.

(01:05:26):
It's if it's an urgent crisis,you know. Don't use the email
addresses they gave you. The linksgo to let's say again handling the county
Sheriff's office on your own. That'sexactly what I was going to say.
I just go down to the wonderwhen sims down you and pull in and
say, hey, do you actuallyhave a warrant on me? Because I
got a call saying that it wouldn'ttake me that long. It's right around
the corner. So I mean that'sthat's the best way to avoid getting scammed.

(01:05:48):
Because again, these people are verysavvy, uh, they're devious.
They'll say any line. In manycases they've done the research and have your
information to convince you whatever scam they'rerunning it is real. Now, speaking
of devious, Google admitting it's AI, it's artificial intelligence is the top source
of online misinformation. Speaking of devious, surprise, they're copping to that anyway.

(01:06:09):
We'll learn about that from Dave comingup next after Peter Sabia, Kellor
Williams seven Hills and his real estateteam outstanding five star experiences. What you're

KRCD talkstation intrust it dot com whereyou find Dave Hatter and his crew doing
that thing we call tech Friday.Okay, so we've got our official intelligence
and I guess now it's making stuffup. Google admitting that it's this top
source of online misinformation. Dave.Yeah, this is an interesting article in
futurism and it speaks to something.The headline it doesn't align exactly with where

(01:07:41):
I'm going to take this, butI think you'll see the connection because this
is something we've talked about, probablyBrian, I'm thinking since at least twenty
seventeen, when the term deep fakekind of became a common word in the
vernacular. And you know, thiswhole idea of generative AI platforms, things
like dall and chat GPT generating misinformationslash synthetic media. So, just for

(01:08:05):
your listeners as a reminder, syntheticmedia is kind of to catch all term
of an AI generating some type ofcontent. Could be image, could be
text, could be audio, couldbe video, could be some combination of
all the above. When you lookat something like open ais Sora product,
you know it can generate some prettyincredible video at this point. And so

(01:08:27):
deep fake then is the term thatdescribes using these tools to generate something fake
and who, yes, whose notcheap fake, which is a whole cloth
definition created by the White House todescribe video of the President of the United
States that has not been altered ormodified, yes, versus purely synthetic media,

(01:08:49):
something created by the computer that didnot previously exist. Right, And
for folks who haven't tried these platforms, you know they've gotten quite good.
Whether it's Microsoft co. Pilot orGoogle Gemini or open Ais Chat GPT and
the capabilities that you know, atone time you would need to use a
tool like Dolly to create an image, and you would use chat GPT to

(01:09:11):
create text. You know, openAi owns both of those tools. They've
merged them together. So in additionto saying, you know, give me
a thousand word blog post on Xand chat GPT, it will also generate
images. But the bottom line ofthis futurism article is that these tools,
and they specifically look at Google's Geminiproduct, which folks may recall has gotten

(01:09:31):
a lot of bad press and hada lot of bias issues. It's it's
not just the misinformation angle of it, Brian, where it's producing things that
are biased. It's the hallucination problemin the industry. The term hallucination means
when you generate some kind of content, typically text, doing a content,
it will just make up facts.I know we've talked in the past about

(01:09:55):
a lawyer that used chat GPT nottoo long after it first kind of hit
made these sensational headlines and in documentshe prepared for court, it referenced cases
that did not actually exist, andhe didn't understand that, you know,
whatever it spits out may not necessarilybe accurate or true, and took this
to court and it caused him alot of problems, as you might guess.

(01:10:17):
So you know, this idea ofhallucination is when you use one of
these tools to generate content, itcan and in many cases, will produce
things that are just completely made up. And it's not necessarily attempting to be
malicious. It's just the nature ofthe probabilistic way it generates this content and
whatever material it was trained on.And in some cases the researchers have shown

(01:10:39):
examples where it makes something up.The researcher knows it's wrong, and they
will start to question and it willconfidently say, oh no, that's right.
And in many cases, you know, it won't cite sources. So
you know, I've encouraged people fora long time if you're going to use
a tool like chat, GPT orcopilot, because when you when you understand
how they work and what the limitationsare, they can be very helpful in

(01:11:00):
a lot of ways. But ifyou don't understand the limitations, and you
don't understand hallucination, and you don'tvet the work and especially if you ask
it about things you know nothing about, where you can't really know whether it's
accurate or not. You know,and then unless you do a lot of
extra work, you potentially are settingyourself up for disaster. But this,
this futurism article is really talking abouthow people are using these tools to generate

(01:11:26):
deep synthetic media, and in particulardeep fake content of videos, primarily photos.
You know, more visual content thantext, and it says in here
AI spun content now makes up roughlyeighty percent of visual misinformation according to the
study. As four or four mediareports, this is likely an undercount.
The web is of asked the factfact checking services with claim Review or imperfect

(01:11:48):
can offer require opt ins, andit's talking about and then they give some
examples. You may recall a fewyears ago there were some deep fakes out
there, both of Zelene and ofPutin making claims about the war in Ukraine.
So, you know, as wehead into election season, and I
would encourage people to check out thisfuturism article, I know we're going to

(01:12:09):
run out of time. It getsinto some additional detail about how these tools
can be used to produce this,and then when you throw social media in
to push it out at scale,you know, as we get into the
election season in particular, and youknow, Brian, you and I have
talked about it before. My biggestfear right now in the world of social
media, other than you know,an attack on critical infrastructure, is that

(01:12:30):
people don't realize how good these syntheticmedia generating tools are in terms of creating
things like cloned voices. And it'sentirely possible right now you could get a
call that will sound exactly like yourCEO or your CFO, or your wife
or your son. It's easy toaccess these tools. In many cases,

(01:12:51):
they're free, and we've already seensome high, high profile instances where millions
of dollars have been stolen using deepfake voice cloning tools. So yeah,
folks understand versus anything you see rightnow or here could be fake and you
act accordingly. Well, going backto your earlier comment, if you don't

(01:13:12):

to deal with one of these becauseI know if my son calls, it's
going to come from his phone number. Stick around. Well, one more

World War Two veteran Henry Armstrong ateight oh five on his trip to
Normandy for the ants an Erstary,and we're going to drink some wine with
wine expert Kegan Corcorn at eight thirtyThe Mean Time Tech Friday. Dave Hatter
Well, they're becoming sentient beings.They're learning to lie these artificial intelligence devices.
Dave. Well, you know,Brian, this is interesting because despite

(01:15:00):
all of the hype and even thethings we've talked about this morning related to
AI, because it's it's so hardnow if you work in the business,
for sure, the AI is it'sone of the greatest tsunamis of hype I've
ever seen in my thirty plus yearsin the business. And there are many
people out there now, many wellknown prominent AI experts, and I don't

(01:15:20):
mean people like me who just talkabout this stuff. I mean people who
are building these technologies. Guys likeJeffrey Hinton. We've talked about him before
he was Many call him the godfatherof AI. I'd remind folks too when
you hear these terms, you know, AI dates back to like the fifties.
Clearly it's had a large upswing andcapabilities here and generated a lot of

(01:15:43):
hype recently. But even some ofthese luminaries who predicted general AI, which
is the idea that it could doanything a human could do, because right
now we're kind of in this spacewhere these are purpose built to do certain
types of things, right, generatetext, generate photos, generate audio.
You know, chat GPT can't godrive your car, you see what I'm
saying there. So a general AIwould be an AI that's capable of doing

(01:16:08):
anything at the level that a humanbeing can do. And then super intelligence
or super AI would be some typeof artificial intelligence that's more capable than all
of humanity put together. And someof the folks that are predicting that we're
close to that are now starting towalk that back because these large language model
based tools like chat GPT are kindof peaking, and I think a lot

(01:16:30):
of it honestly has been hype allalong. So I just bring that up
because there are some prominent voices nowwho are starting to walk back some of
their more hyperbolic predictions. And Iwill tell you before we come back to
this article, I can't even readthis to you because of the FCC requirements,
but I'm just going to give youa summary. I ran into an
article this week that not only Ithink really touches on kind of what I

(01:16:55):
where I see we're at with thisstuff, but it is so well written
and so funny that it actually mademe laugh out loud in several cases,
which almost never happens reading something.And I'll send you the link, Bryan,
but here's the headline. I willefing pile drive you if you mentioned
AI again. And it's written bysomeone with some pretty impressive credentibles, and
I got to tell you, itis truly hilarious the way that it's written.

(01:17:19):
But I think also addresses some ofthese things. So all of that
set to get back to this point. And this is one of the problems
with this. It's not just thehallucination that we talked about. It's not
just the misinformation bias in the algorithmsbias and the training data. But they
talk about and they go through astudy that was done. Do you remember

(01:17:41):
the board game Diplomacy? No,I don't. I never played it,
but I remember it from back inthe eighties. I guess it's still a
thing because in this article, anotherfuturism article, they say they were testing
an AI in the AI was kindof purpose built to play this game Diplomacy,
which the best way I can describeit is it's kind of like risk,

(01:18:02):
but without the war component. You'retrying to do diplomacy between nations and
takeover and so forth, right,And they talk about how this AI that
had been built to play this gameand achieve human level championship capabilities in the
game would lie over time to winthe game. Now, I don't know

(01:18:24):
how that's any different than a humanbeing. I mean, you know,
but they point out that, youknow, here this is a direct quote
from the article. Quote, wefound that metas Ai had learned to be
a master of deception unquote. Andwhile Meta succeeded in training at Ai to
win in the game of Diplomacy.And this is a quote from MIT physicists,
META failed to train the AI towin, honestly, and you know

(01:18:45):
that's A. Not shocking to me, but B but B you know,
how is that any different than howyou know? Well, one way make
an argument that it was properly trainedbecause it more accurately recommends dealing with human
beings who are inclined a lot toserve their best interest. You definitely could
now. But I think the concernis to bring it back to this if
if you talk to people who reallywork in this field, I mean not

(01:19:09):
the people who claim to be expertson this, but the people building it.
You know, we've talked in thepast about how some of these things
they build they don't really understand howthey work. They do things they can't
predict, which is a little scary. And then when you see this sort
of behavior if it wasn't designed tolie, but it's learned how to do
it on its own to some extent, and learn is a loaded terms,
right, especially after you go readthat other article I mentioned to you.

(01:19:31):
But it is concerning to think thatwhen you hear calls for over time,
these things are going to make laws, and these things are going to adjudicate
in course and so forth. That'spretty scary to me. That is really
scary, and just even hearing thatfrightens me. Deck Rid with Dave Hotter.
You always succeed in frightening me onsome level every week. But you
got to know what you got tonotice day informed on these and protect yourself.

Dave. I'll look forward to anotheredition next Friday. Have a wonderful weekend.
Always my pleasure, and I'm goingto send you a separate link with

destroying it. Learn how to dothat at the flag retirement ceremony, and

(01:22:00):
of course there's places to drop offyour tattered flags. It's disrespectful to the

oh five. It's sort of chaptertwo. It's I did an interview with
a guy named Henry Armstrong, andyou may recall it. Ninety nine year

(01:22:44):
young Henry Armstrong, World War Twoveteran. He was there on the eighth
of June where he landed at OmahaBeach in Normandy, and he told the
tale of you know, landing onthe beach last time he was on the
program, you know, going intoFrance, the concentration camp that he help
UH to liberate, taking out hisire on some Nazi SS guys after witnessing

(01:23:09):
murdered babies, among other things.Andrew's got a lot to say on that
one. Brilliant guy, sharp asattack. He was there for the anniversary
recently, hadn't been back since hewas on the beach at Omaha and served
his country in World War Two.We're gonna get a follow up from Henry
coming up at eight oh five.He's gonna tell us all about his trip
to France and what he experienced therefor the for the memorial UH and a

(01:23:31):
sort of kind of reunion anyway,brilliant guy. And it's just a pleasures
talking with him, Always a pleasuretalking with Keegan Corcoran, our wine expert.

(01:24:15):
coming off Tech Friday, Dave Hattersome other tech related points I mentioned last
hour, and you can find itfor yourself. And I recommend if you've
got young people, teenagers, thirteenyear olds and maybe younger, get them
the hell off Instagram. I guessas well. Jeff Horowitz reporting on The
Wall Street Journal, and I don'tneed to go into the details of it.
Headline Instagram recommends sexual videos to accountsfor a thirteen year old's test show.

(01:24:43):
Now, Instagram has been claiming thatthey've been cracking down on the ability
of thirteen year olds among others toget this sexually oriented material. But as
these researchers figured out, and theytesting and testing the limits of what they're
doing over at Instagram, found outthat you know, you identify yourself as
a thirteen year old, and youexpress any interest in any content that is

(01:25:03):
even remotely sexual, basically you startgetting flooded with more and more, even
greater sexual content. So if you'vegot a thirteen year old, you should
be worried about them being on socialmedia generally speaking. And I know how
popular Instagram is, so just knowwhat they're being saturated with. And I

(01:25:24):
am anti crypto, and I don'tbelieve I listen, I understand the technology
of cryptocurrency on some level. Onother levels, it's like the peace of
God. It passes my human understandinganyway. But it's easy to track where
the purchases are, where the money'sgoing. And of course a lot of
people worried about going to a cashlestsociety because it just provides for even more

(01:25:45):
tracking. And we know our creditcard companies, we know they had little
codes for literally every business you goto, including firearms businesses, and that
was a more recent code that wascreated and thanks to Louisiana or Louisiana Governor
Jeff Landry, and I wish wewould follow his lead here in the state
of Ohio. Just sign the buildthat supporters say will protect your privacy and

(01:26:08):
sensitive financial information if you go tochoose to buy guns or ammunition or anything
else from a firearm store. SBthree to h one or the Second Amendment
Financial Privacy Act signed in the lawjust for the last week. Louisiana the
sixteenth state to adopt measures that banthe government tracking of firearms when bought using

(01:26:29):
credit cards or other payment cards.Now you walk in with cash, they
don't have a record of your transaction. Now I understand if you bought a
firearm to be an FFL form,that's always kept in the possession of the
gun store. The federal government's notentitled to make a list out of that
until the gun store goes out ofbusiness, in which case all those records
then become part of a federal databaseshowing who bought what and when, which

(01:26:51):
is disturbing in and of itself.It's a Second Amendment, it's an inalienable
right. You're allowed to protect anddefend yourself. Why should the government need
to know whether or not you boughtany of the bought any of this or
not. There are laws on thebook that prevent felons from owning them.
There are laws on the book thatprevent people like miners from carrying and owning
or purchasing firearms. Right, okay, anyway, the privacies financial institutions from

(01:27:16):
either requiring or encouraging retailers to assignfirearms specific merchant category codes to card based
purchases of guns and AMMO measure apparentlyalso bans financial service providers from assigning a
merchant category code to gun stores,which is what was recently done. I

(01:27:38):
had the backstory on that. Itwas the firearm code created by the Switzerland
based International Organization for Standardization that inresponse to a twenty twenty two request by
Amalgamated Bank, whose president said thebank's petition to ISO had a broad support
from elected officials across of course,the United States, and came after three

(01:28:00):
years of partnership with gun control advocacygroup. So yes, our elected officials
in Washington who don't want you tobe able to keep in bare arms,
along with a bunch of anti gungroups, said hey, we need a
code so we can track who's buyingthese Sadly absent from the states that have
already enacted these measures, Louisiana nowamong them Ohio. Ain't there props to

(01:28:24):
my friends in Indiana and Kentucky whoalso have similar measures in place. Alabama,
Georgia, Tennessee, Iowa, Kentucky, Wyoming, Indiana, Utah,
Florida, Idaho, Mississippi, Montana, North Dakota, Texas, and West
Virginia all have similar laws in place. Director of fire Arm Innistry Trade Association

(01:28:44):
quoted as saying, Darren Lasortz's name. Governor Landry's signature on the second in
Financial Privacy Act is a powerful statementthat the Second Amendment rights of Louisiana's are
not negotiable. So I'll protect Louisianacitizens from unlawful intrusion on their private purchases
when purchasing fire arms and ammunition witha payment card. Now the advocates claim

(01:29:06):
that somehow and get a load ofthis, President CEO of am Algebated Bank,
which I just mentioned. The newcode will allow us to fully comply
with our duty to report suspicious activityand illegal gun sales to authorities without blocking
or impeding legal gun sales. Pausefor a moment. This is a bank,

(01:29:29):
a financial institution kind of like thebank's and financial instlutions that have those
suspicious activity reports like the one thatHunter Biden had one hundred and twenty of,
and they really didn't go anywhere withthose, right, that would be
a suspicious activity properly reported to thefederal authorities who decided to sit on them
and not doing anything about them.So, whether or not these things are
valuable or not, how would theyknow if a given gun purchase is suspicious?

(01:29:55):
You use your bank issued credit card, you go to a firearm store
and you buy, oh, Idon't know, how about a gun bag?
Just the gunbag, spend fifty sevendollars on it, right, and
you leave, and there it isreflected as a code as a firearms slash
ammo store purchase. Is that asuspicious activity on its face? Does the

(01:30:16):
bank have any further information beyond thatyou made a purchase there? The answer
is hell no, Nor could theyfigure out whether it's an illegal gun sale.
The bank is not a position todo that. The gun store owner
is kind of like when the gunstore owner presiding over Hunter Biden's firearm purchase
watched him fill out the form himself, not anybody else, and said no

(01:30:41):
when to the question whether you're addictedto drugs or not. They're in the
position to figure out whether it's suspiciousor not. They're the ones that can
evaluate whether or not you are theappropriate age to own or purchase a firearm.
They're the ones that run the FFLform up to the federal government and
either get an approval that the gunis okay to sell or it's not,
as the case may be. Thebank has, you know, blanking idea,

(01:31:02):
but the transactions recorded, they knowwhose shop and where, and that's
one of the main reasons, orone of the big reasons why I try
to avoid using credit cards at allcosts. I know it's impossible when you
do an online transactions, but wow, just a little bit more of intrusion
into your privacy. Big brother ismost assuredly watching. And props to Louisiana

did. Fantastic work, always atthe right price. You'll find that yourself.
So whether you just simply need anoutlet installed or maybe some cann it's

(01:33:53):
not, It's Friday, so funtimes that'll be. We'll let it do
nothing I'm talking about lately, butthe idea of lab grown meat has always
made me gag. I recently readit an article about yet another study.
You talk about how lab grown meatis not good for you. I think
they refer to it as carcinogenic orsomething along those lines. You can do

(01:34:15):
your own research on that, makeyour own choices about lab grown meat.
But you know, when you're inthe American military, you don't get any
choice. That's why I always respectthose men and women of American military.
Signing on the bottom line guarantees youabsolutely nothing other than a wild potential ride.
You can end up anywhere in thefour corners of the world, and
you got to eat what they giveto you, apparently, and we got
some interviewed veterans interviewed by Daily Callertalk about a new plan to shove this

(01:34:45):
fake meat down their throats. Biomeatis the name of the company described as
a Pentagon funded company. This isyour tax dollars going to a private company
to have them create fake meat forthe purpose is of reducing the military's carbon
footprint. Apparently, by Meat hasreceived over five hundred million, half a

(01:35:13):
billion dollars in funding from the Departmentof Defense, accord to the Washington Free
Beacon. Several veterans, in responseto this proposal, speaking with again Daily
Caller, referred to themselves as labrats. Martin Bailey, former US Special
Forces members, said, I thinkthe government should focus on letting the military

(01:35:34):
protect our nation from enemies foreign anddomestic sometimes, but you know that's what
the military is there for. They'renot there to be experimental lab rats.
Lab grown meat also referred to assell based meat, which considering everything has
a cellular structure. Not quite sureI understand why of that anyway, calling

(01:35:58):
it still in the experimental phase ofdevelopment. The meat grown to the lab
composed of animal cells added chemicals thataim to aid in the manufacturing the meat
without animals being slaughtered again. WashingtonFree Beacon reporting on that one former Navy
seal of twenty two years, speakingwith a caller, Tim W didn't want
to identify his last name. Thereare a large number of active Reserve Guard

(01:36:20):
members who are still a little jadedfrom the COVID shot and are very unwilling
to be part of this new experiment. Started the project and feeding well,
this actually something quite less than thethan spam February of twenty twenty five,
apparently accorded to Biomeeds report on it. Department of Defense, under pressure by

(01:36:45):
President Joe Biden, his administration isincreasingly prioritized lowering the military's carbon footprint.
One way to do so developing nutrientdense rations through novel meat production processes like
this fake meat. Matt Spence,former Department Defense Department official and I don't

(01:37:12):
know what capacity court of the reportinghere, believes that the most high impact,
immediate way to address climate change isfor the US government to invest in
alternative ways to produce meat. Oh. The Pentagon has also requested one hundred
and forty million dollars to expand diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. No you
should be involved in killing people andbreaking things. And as I read this,

(01:37:35):
and I just kind of wonder howmuch if they've done any calculations on
this, and they probably haven't.If you forced all of our Americans in
uniform to eat mries, meals readyto eat or meals rarely edible, fake
meat, how much carbon is thatgoing to stop? How many cow flatulence

(01:37:56):
events will it prevent by manufacturing whichwill certainly require using electricity generated in large
parts still by natural gas and otherfossil fuels. Uh. And then compare
that to the bombs that get blownoff in one conflict Loan, Ukraine and
Russia. How much carbon do youthink's gone out of the atmosphere with all

(01:38:16):
the bombing that's going on. Itseems to me that the last thing on
American military mind should be the environment. Their job is basically effectively putting pollutants
into the air as a consequence ofwaging war. Duh, we've run off
the rails, folks. Seven twentyfive. If you I have kcit de
talkxtation, somebody knows all about that. Ken Williamson, veteran flag retirement ceremony,

(01:38:42):
is the subject matter of the conversationwe'll talk with Ken coming up next.
First word for my cancer doctors.And I hate having to say that
I have cancer doctors because it's aterrible day when your doctor tells you you
have cancer. Yeah, that's areal low point in your life. You're
gonna be worried. I assure youof that. You're gonna be wondering about
your treatment. You're gonna wonder whereare you going to turn in terms of
getting that treatment. And I atleast had a friend of my corner,

(01:39:03):
Jony, recommended OHC, and that'sdirectly where I went first stop shopping for
my cancer doctors. And I amso glad I landed there. If I
make it till November, i'll befour years cancer free, which makes me
feel really good. And of courseyour family's gonna feel good about that,
assuming they like you. Cancer treatmentteams at OHC they're engaged in bringing innovative
treatment options to their patients, leadingedge treatments, clinical trials. It's all

(01:39:28):
about the cutting edge of cancer therapyat OHC, and they'll surround you with
everything you need to focus on beatingcancer, which is all is going to

Jason Earhart on fifty five krc theTalk Station seven thirty year a fifty five
krcdtalk station, A very happy Fridayto you. Great weekend, generally speaking,
overall weekends always are made even betterbecause on Sunday at in Claremont County,

(01:41:06):
specifically Union Township Civic Center Amphitheater onI Colts Road, we're going to
be doing the flag Retirement Ceremony,an annual event that I have been blessed
to be a part of now forquite some time, joining the fifty five
Caroseme Morning Show. Former President ofthe Vietnam Veterans Associate Chapter six forty nine,

(01:41:26):
Ken Williamson. Ken's always a pleasuretalking to my friend. And let
me start by thanking you for yourservice to our country. Well, thank
you very much, Brian, andthanks for having me. I can't believe
it's been fourteen years we've been doingthis. Well, I was struggling.
I was looking on the notes tosee if it had like fourteenth annual,
and I didn't see that because Iknow I've been doing it more than a

(01:41:47):
decade. Was I there for thefirst one? Ken? I believe you
were. That's so wow. I'vebeen on This is my eighteenth year in
radio, and I know I've beendoing this for the majority of the time.
But has fourteen years gone by thatquickly? It's truly amazing. But
it's an important ceremony. And Igot to ask you right out of the
gate about Steve Tam. Steve's beenstruggling with some medical issues and wasn't this

(01:42:10):
his brainchild veteran Steve Tam? Absolutely. I just talked to Steve yesterday.
I hope he's listening. I toldhim we'd be mentioning his name, of
course. But Steve came to memy first year as president of the chapter
and said, I want to doa flag retirement ceremony. How do we

(01:42:30):
do it? How can we getthis together? So Steve and I worked
on that. And it's interesting storyabout Steve because he's known to have traveled
through Claremont County looking for tattered andtowardent flags on people's houses and businesses.
He'd knock on their door and sayyour flag needs to be retired. Yeah,

(01:42:56):
sometimes he would take the flag downand put a new one up,
but he was known for that allover the county. And he's done a
wonderful job with this flag retirement ceremony. We retire probably three thousand flags a
year, and that's an amazing seat, really, it really is. And

(01:43:16):
I know this is near and dearto Steve's heart, but it should be
near and dear to everybody's hard youknow, we struggle with trying to find
some symbol of unity, some unificationof really anything. We're so divided as
a country, and to me,my entire life, I've always looked at
the flag as a symbol of unification. We can fly under the flag of
freedom, which allows Steve and youand me and everybody in my listening audience

(01:43:42):
the right to decide how they wantto live their lives in a free society.
We get to choose, and we'reone of the few countries in the
world where that's even a concept,and that flag stands as a symbol of
freedom and liberty, that we canhave these options and we can debate about
things political and otherwise, but joiningunder the conceptual symbol, which is our

(01:44:03):
flag, and so I have atremendous amount of respect for the flag.
I always do it as representing ourconstitution and everything it supports. And that's
why if your flag is torn up, tattered, faded, looking like garbage,
you shouldn't be flying it on yourhouse or at your business. Well,
that's that's really correct. And I'malways amazed at how many flags we

(01:44:25):
find, you know, flying onthe tops of businesses that are pattered and
torn and frayed. But we alsohave to remember that they're out there in
the weather twenty four hours a day, right, and you've got to keep
your eye on them, because allof a sudden one day, just because
of the sun beating on them,you'll see strings coming off the end.

(01:44:47):
And so you know, there aresigns to watch for. But but you
know, we're all for changing outthe flags whe whenever we possibly can.
Yeah, just consider this a gentleremind you're to take a look at it
every once in a while. Right, Look, it's a flag. You
should be looking at it for inspirationanyway, and if you start seeing it
to deteriorate. Now, I know, all throughout the Claremont County, the

(01:45:13):
VFW Chapter six forty nine. Don'tyou still have collection containers at various businesses
and around around the area. Yeah. Yeah, the Theadon Veterans of America
Chapter six forty nine has collection centersat Everything Bagels in East Gate. We
have them at the Union Township CivicsCenter, at the Union Township fire Stations,

(01:45:40):
and we also have a collection boxat the Claremont County Veterans Service Office
down in their first floor lobby andthose boxes are full all the time.
Yeah, it's really great that we'vespread the word around. And I don't
know how many flags we've retired thisyear. We've lost count, but it
has to be in the thousands.Well, and every year you take those

(01:46:03):
thousands of flags and properly retire them. Which is the ceremony we're going to
be talking about, or are doingon at one pm on Sunday at Union
Township Civic Center. Specifically, yougot the Saint Thomas Moore Scout Troop four
fifty two showing up. I'm goingto be there, Bob McGee keynote speaker.
We're going to pray for Steve Tambeing able to be there to see

(01:46:23):
his legacy again and we'll learn todemonstrate the proper flag etiquette and respectful retirement
of the United States flag. It'sit's a nice little ceremony. Really,
it really is a nice ceremony.And you know, you learn this well.
Steve Tam would say, this isan excellent time to bring your children

(01:46:45):
and grandchildren to watch how the flaggets folded and the meaning of each fold,
and to watch how the flag getsthe stars and stripes get separated,
and learning the meaning of those aswell. In addition, we're going to
be giving away some free flags tothe first nineteen people who bring a flag

(01:47:08):
to us for retirement at the ceremony. At the end of that ceremony,
they'll receive a free three by fiveflag as a replacement. Oh, that's
very nice gesture. Truly appreciate that. Were those donated donated ken, Yes,
those were donated by the Amelia Knightsof Columbus. Well, props to

(01:47:29):
the Amelia Knights of Columbus for thedonation. That's fantastic. So first nineteen
folks, you know, and ifyou don't have a tattered flag of your
own, maybe take a look atyour neighbor's flag and be like Steve tam
and knock on the door and say, hey, heading over to the flag
retirement ceremony, and I want totell you your flag, well, it's
seen its last leg. It's timeto come down. Let me take it
in and have it properly disposed of. You can have that conversation. I'm

(01:47:49):
sure they'll be very happy that youtold them that their flag wasn't worthy of
being flown anymore. That's a greatidea. And one quick note about tomorrow
or mout Sunday, excuse me,is that we are taking the flag retirement
indoors. It was the last minutedecision based on the heat. So if
you're worried about sitting outside at theamphitheater in the heat or the possible rain

(01:48:15):
that's coming, we're going to moveit indoors to the Queen's City Room there
at the center, so it'll bethe same location, just inside the building
instead of and no open fire pit. No open fire pit inside. Yeah,
the fire marshall doesn't like that,I imagine anyway, so join of
course, ken me. We're prayingfor Steve showing up, Saint Thomas bor

(01:48:38):
Scout Troop four point fifty two andthe rest of the chapter six forty nine
Vietnam Veterans being there. I'm lookingforward to it as I always do.
Ken. I want to thank youfor everything you do throughout the year in
the name of veterans and veterans causes, and of course your involvement with the
flag retirement ceremony. It means alot to me and I will see you
on Sunday one pm. Union TownshipCivic Center ampath Theater located forty three to

(01:54:26):
first, Mississippi James been on thephone. Thanks for holding over the brake,
sir. Welcome back to the program. Yeah, good morning, doctor
Bryan. Hello, Yeah, what'son your mind today? Mississippi? James
Oh, I came in on theflag conversation. I guess me at wage
somewhere, but good information he putout on it. Most question is what

(01:54:47):
about flying the flag upside down?What's the theory? What's I really hadn't
researched it, But what's your point. It's a symbol of distress, and
I think that we enter in therealm of subjectivity. I believe at sea,
perhaps I don't know things military orif you're on a ship, if
you hang the flag upside down,that that means you're in distress. But

(01:55:09):
I've always read that that is asymbol of distress. Some people will turn
their flags upside down as a politicalstatement. You're still flying the flag,
but it is to indicate that youhave a subjective feeling of distress for some
reason, perhaps opening up a conversationwith your neighbors as to why exactly you
have the flag hanging upside down.So it's a political statement, which,

(01:55:30):
of course the Supreme Court has heldthat burning a flag as a political statement,
it's a expression of speech. Sothose flag protection laws and things of
that nature designed to protect an ontothe American flag. You can't trump the
First Amendment because you're making a politicalstatement in burning it. People treat the
flag in different ways. I'm aperson who wants to treat the flag with
respect and honor the appropriate rules abouthow to properly dispose of a flag and

(01:55:56):
also use that vehicle. This flagretirement ceremony as a he to my probably
more patriotic listeners that there's a timeand a place to retire your flag and
to not fly a tattered flag,whether or not it's right side up or
upside down. James, God blessyou, sir. I appreciate you listening
to the program. And again,best of health your wife and you.

document they think might get them aroundthe previous Supreme Court ruling saying that this
violates the establishment clause because we donot live in a theocracy. Now,

(01:58:35):
the reason I bring that up andjust something to think about. Put it
in your head thinking cap, becausesome people are going, yeah, we
need that, we need that.This is not going to allow teachers to
use this as a discussion point topromote religion. That would be unconstitutional.
And for folks who are quick tosay, well it shouldn't be what form
specifically of Judeo Christian doctrine? Areyou going to allow teachers to talk about

(01:59:00):
because there's some snake handlers out there, and I wouldn't want my children to
be brought up in a snake handlingenvironment. Okay, And I think there's
one hundred and thirty versions of Christianityout there in the world. Pick your
own. That's fine, it's yourchoice. We have that inalienable right.
But because they're not going to beable to discuss religious is not going to
be a deep dive. They can'tuse this as a springboard to encourage fostering,

(01:59:23):
encourage geneo Christian ethics and values,because that would be viewed as a
violation of the First Amendment under caselaw. Contrast that, though, if
they're flying the LGBTQ flag and thecurriculum includes in doctrinating language fostering and encourage
acceptance and you know, well welcomingof all these different sexual conduct variations of

(01:59:46):
the world and gender identities and thelike, you're not allowed to say anything
about that, for whatever reason,because it isn't characterized as a religion with
a higher power, a God.A leap of faith if you will,
even though I I will argue believingyou're a woman, if you're actually a
guy is without question, a leapof faith because it doesn't change anything.
Your biological reality remains the same.They can talk about that, they can

(02:00:11):
push that down your throat because itisn't classified as a religion. Maybe we
need to start focusing on classifying thatindoctrination campaign they're all involved in, and
their flags and their paraphernalia and theirindoctrination material as religion, in which case,
maybe under the First Amendment they wouldn'tbe able to teach that in schools
anymore. Throwing it out there.Seventy five ifty five K City Talks Station,

(02:00:33):
ninety nine year young World War IIveteran. He was there on Omaha
Beach June eighth. Henry Armstrong isgoing to give us an update on what
happened while he was there for theanniversary in France. Be right back.
You are twenty twenty four election headquarters. The only way you have a free
and fair election is when you havean informed electric fifty five KRC the talk

(02:00:56):
station. This report here is chre'smorn showed legendary World War TO veteran in
ninety nine years Young Henry Armstrong,Welcome back to the fifty five Cars Morning
Show. It's a real pleasure tohave you back on the show, my
friend, Thank you, brother,thank you. So last time we talked
whenever you're you're you're landing on thebeaches at Normandy, specifically Omaha Beach on
June eighth, just two days afterthe initial invasion. Uh. And you

(02:01:19):
just got back from your trip tothe anniversary of the landing at Normandy in
France. Here to check up andfind out how that trip went with you.
First question for you, Henry,I've got was the tree that you
killed still there? And did youvisit it? You know? They told
me take a metal beat, Butno, I couldn't find a tree like

(02:01:44):
that, Okay, I had Ihad to ask. That was a great
story. And my listeners didn't geta chance to listen to your interview that
The podcast of our discussion is onmy blog page fifty five Casey dot com.
You go back and check that out. So how overall, how was
the experience being back there? Thisis the first time you've been back since
you were serving in World War Two? Right, that's correct? Yes,

(02:02:05):
But I'll tell you my trip thistime was just outstanding. The people in
France have been so wonderful and sogreeting. I guess as the term to
use, because I had so manydifferent greetings over there and the people.
I'm really surprised that the number ofpeople speak perfect English. It's like the

(02:02:27):
real language, you might say,but they do. And I get the
impression this is only me thinking thisnow, that the French people are trying
to convert their way of life overthere to the way the United States is
because I look at the landscapes,the houses and what they're doing and everything,

(02:02:47):
it looks so American more than theway I remember France. It was
good I had. The trip wasoutstanding. I really enjoyed it. I
thought it was great the people wouldcome up to me and shake hands and
thank me for what I did,and I said to it wasn't me.

(02:03:09):
It was a lot of us thatwere over there that did it. And
then there was I had only oneincident that shocked, not a shock,
but surprise. I guess. Ihad a gentleman who woke up to me
and shake hands and say thank youfor your service here, and he says,
I'm from Germany, and I thought, is he now from Germany or

(02:03:34):
was he originally from Germany? Andmigrated, so I don't know. But
anyway, he come up and shookhands with me and thank me for my
service too. Well, like politicshere or not, everybody was happy with
the administration regardless, and I'm surethere were a lot of Germans who did
not like living under the Hitler regime. So now you're absolutely right. Yeah,

(02:03:54):
now I imagine you know, didyou get you you did go back
to the specific beach area where youlanded. Is that an accurate statement?
Well, the beach area is offlimits right now. Over the years they
have found the people that have walkedon the beach and found land mines that
were still there, and that whenthey found several land mines and naturally those

(02:04:19):
people would step on them, they'dbe killed. They have put the beaches
off limits because of that, andthey there's a little area just above the
beach that you can walk on thatyou can look down on the beaches,
but you can't walk on the beachesthemselves. I'm surprise they haven't done landmines

(02:04:40):
scans. I mean, they dohave the modern equipment that can find those
and far at the mine. Iwould have thought so too. The German
bunk, the German bunkers are stillthere and the shell holes are still there,
and that was a fascinating thing.The shell holes are pretty deep and
they been grown up with grass andthe kids, the French kids, well

(02:05:03):
them. They they get the topof the hole and roll down to the
bottom and then walk up to thetop and roll down to the bottom again.
They've made toys out of them.How about that? Now you know
you were obviously there's a number ofceremonies wreef laying ceremonies. You went to
the Utah Beach leaf reef laying ceremony. There was apparently one at a place

(02:05:24):
called Serzz American Cemetery. I don'tknow if I'm pronouncing that right. There's
a lot of American cemeteries over there. I think every beach has got its
own American cemetery and monument and Iguess everything at each each of the beaches
has got its own from what Igather, and that's fascinating to see that.

(02:05:47):
And they really maintain those cemeteries.They're very very it's hard to say
attractive for cemetery, but they're veryvery pleasant to look at. That's because
they're well, they're well maintained,well respected, I think is a good
word to use. The well,that's a good word. Yeah, they're
very respected. Yeah, I'm glad. And then the French people are very

(02:06:12):
respective of all the Americans that comethere, and their country is well maintained.
I'm just very, very fascinated withit. I understand. There was
a veteran parade. There was ahuge crowd that filled the streets to welcome
you all. Yes, there was. We ever saw so many people in
one area and all my life isthere because I think everybody from France was

(02:06:35):
there, but they did. Wehad a nice welcome parade. We had
a nice ceremony there at the ArchTriumph and we met that's where our president
was and with the President of France. And we had about one hundred and
seventy one World War two vets thereat that ceremony, and that's where the

(02:07:00):
President of France. The front rowof uh gis that served in World War
Two. Uh there were I thinkten of them. They said the French
president presented them with the Knights Legionof Honor medal. Uh And I said,
I was way in the back becauseyou were seated alphabetically and being armstrong,

(02:07:24):
and I was the very first oneat the top of the hill,
and I watched and I said,boy, that medal looks sure looks familiar,
Sure looks familiar. And then itdawned on me. I got that
medal some eight years ago, andI said, it's fascinating that they're they're
giving that medal to a lot ofthem now, just now. Well,

(02:07:45):
better late than never, sir,better late than that. True? Did
you did you get to run intoany of the men that you served with
at the times that I kept Ikept looking for them. Excuse me for
interrupting, but I kept looking forthem, and I never did see anybody
that I recognized or I knew thatI served with. But you got to

(02:08:05):
realize too, that most of theguys I served with are about my age
now, and they don't they don'texist anymore. I understand, I know.
And you're ninety nine, and ifwe could all only live to your
age and have your mental clarity andacuity and would just be a it's just

(02:08:26):
a gorgeous, beautiful thing to talkto you. How about the towns that
you mentioned during our last conversation afteryou got off the beach at Omaha Beach,
you obviously made your way inland,and you went through some towns.
You talked about the concentration camp anda place called Yeah, I'm sorry to
interrupt again, No, a placecalled Gunskirk and Lauger was the name of

(02:08:48):
the camp. And before we gotto the camp, the thing that really
probably irritated me more than anything elsein my trip over there was we were
going through a small town and cameacross a rail a box car at a
little rail station, and the outsidethe box car was just huge piles of

(02:09:09):
rags, and the rags contained thebodies of women and children and little babies.
They had all been executed. Andto look at a little baby not
much more than eight nine months oldwith a bullet hole, I said,
how can any adult person do somethinglike that? And that's when we left
there and went down and down theroad and found the camp Gunskirking Ladder.

(02:09:33):
And from then on, I thinkour anger went to every German soldier that
we came across after that, becauseI realized that, and I know they
were following orders, but that's immaterialhuman nature. You don't shoot a little
baby at least, And this iswhat irritated us more than anything else is

(02:09:56):
to find that a gungekirkin lauder.There were about I'm going to say twenty
five SS hoopers that we eliminated,and we found out that some of the
men that were in that it wasall men in the camp, and some
of the men who were the familiesof the ones that we'd found up in
the rags. Oh, so didyou go back to that camp on your

(02:10:18):
visit, this most recent visit.No, I didn't. We were more
or less guided, if you wantto say that, more than anything else.
We didn't do what we wanted todo. Our understood and so I
guess that sort of media anticipated answeredmy question. Were you able to visit
any of the towns that you wereresponsible for helping to liberate? Well,

(02:10:41):
I guess we went through and quitefrankly, I don't remember a lot of
the names of the towns. Ivaguely I remember Paris, of course,
but other towns, no, Idon't remember. Well, no, oh,
you heard that you told me aboutit last time. Yes, yea,

(02:11:03):
yeah, yeah, we all knowwhat you called it when you were
there. But you get to makeit back to what was the I got
got to the outskirts of it.That's about all, because yeah, we
did a lot of traveling around justgoing uh, stop here, stop there,
but no no big deal of stayingany length of time or recruit re

(02:11:28):
remembering a lot of stuff that reallyhappened. There's a lot of stuff that
you went through you don't want toremember understood, And this is something I
I personally, I feel that thereare so many veterans out there that have
stories to tell, and I knowthey're embarrassed with a lot of them.
They don't want to remember a lotof the things that they've gone through,

(02:11:52):
and but there are stories or familythings or families need to know what they
experienced, and they they don't tellit because they're embarrassed with what they've done.
And there's no need to be embarrassedwith what you've done over there.
You did your job. And Ithink with me talking the way I do

(02:12:13):
and what I say, I ampartially representing a lot of my hope anyway
well in acting as an inspiration forthose who do have those stories, who
have been sitting on them for obviousreasons, to maybe open up and let
folks know and get a little insightinto what's been on your mind for all
these many years talking about it veryhelpful. It can, and I guess

(02:12:35):
that's the reason I try to expressmy opinion of it. If you've got
stories, regardless of how bad orhow horrible they are, get them off
of mine. And the only wayyou can get them off of mine is
to talk about them. I appreciateyou saying that, Henry, I really
do Henry Armstrong, world War twoveteran, I mean, return from his
trip to France in celebration of theinvasion of Normal, of course, which

(02:13:01):
was a defining moment in World WarTwo, setting the stage for ultimate victory,
and we had got on our sidefor the reasons you just pointed out.
Murdering of babies is just is aboutas unconscionable an act as anybody can
come up with. What was thehighlight of your trip? If I can
boil if you, if you hadto pick one thing that just really stands
out on your return trip to France, what would you say it is?
I'm going to have to say it'sthe country of France itself. We traveled

(02:13:26):
over a lot of the countryside andwe and to see how they maintain their
farms. If you want to saythat a farnt call it a farm.
Everything is so well maintained, andmost of the time I heard very very
little French while I was there.Most was English. And I just got

(02:13:48):
the impression that the French people areso dedicated, so thankful for what we
did back then, and I usethe term we what we did back then,
that they they want to be likeus because we've got the freedoms that
we have and now they've got thosefreedoms to to say what they want to

(02:14:11):
say. And their country is justgorgeous. I thought the country side of
France was just beautiful and the peopleI thought were wonderful. Well, that's
that's inspiring, because I think quiteoften, you know, the French,
generally speaking, get kind of abad rap, you know, with the
attitude and the snobbishness, and clearlyproving that theory or that that that general
perception is wrong. Henry Armstrong,such a wonderful thing to have you back

(02:14:33):
on the program. I'm so happyyou enjoyed your trip. Inspiring conversation we've
had today, and I know mylistening audience is really happy to hear back
from you again. And you know, you've always got a place here in

Man we're gonna meet today, DustyNimbour of Dusty Nibor Wines. Welcome,

(02:17:52):
gentlemen, we're talking win today,Keegan. Of course he liked the
second highest level samier on the planet. There's like only four hundred of you,
a lot right about about six hundredand six hundred, and that takes
some skills, and as you've explained, and this is just an amazing thing
when I think, at least beforeI met you and talked to you at
length about this, to me,as sammlier was just wine and you just

(02:18:13):
had to know about wines, andyou were one of those weird people could
get a bottle of wine unlabeled andsay, oh, yeah, this was
a nineteen sixty three from the Chateauregion of Fray. You know, just
like, how can you possibly dothat? Well? It takes dedication,
commitment, expertise, you know,a lot of drinking, which, you
know, what a wonderful job tohave. But it's also beyond that.
It's spirits, it's cigars. Itreally is the whole gamut of that.

(02:18:37):
You were the sasmier for the JeffRuby restaurant chain for fifteen How's with them
for about twenty years and I wastwenty years the corporate beverage director for the
last about seven half of that,something like that. So you're in one
of the Ruby restaurants, and I'mgoing to be going to Carl and Johnny's
my anniversary on Wednesday. Happy anniversary, Thank you very much, thirty two
years smart men, Mary Smart,and I am the smartest man on the

(02:19:01):
planet when it comes to having successfullynavigated that challenge. My wife's gonna wake
up one of these days and realizewhat the hell was I thinking? But
going to a Ruby restaurant. Butyou always have wonderful wine. They're well
known for the wine selection. Soyou were responsible for really putting all that
together and doing the buying. Yeah, yeah, I was doing that,
doing that for a long while,and then last year, uh well,
kind of like the winter two wintersago, really just decided to cut my

(02:19:24):
own path and I started Ignition Wine. So now I'm on the wholesale side
and selling, selling to a bunchof different bottle shops and find restaurants and
retailers. And yeah, and nowyou've been fun. Go to his website
if you like. It's Ignitionwines dotcom. Now, individuals like me,
the general public can't buy directly fromyou. You are selling to retail establishments,

(02:19:45):
whether it is restaurants or like winestores, and I mentioned my favorite
little wine store at by us abottle or two props of those guys,
because they're really nice guys. Absolutely, And they said they met you last
time I was in there. Yousaid you stopped in, so yeah,
pop in all the time up there. Good. I hope they buy from
you. Well, today we're gonnabe talking about some wonderful wines. And
you brought your friend Dusty, andDusty welcome to the morning show. It's
good to have you in the studio. I appreciate it. Thanks for having

(02:20:07):
me. And I asked you areall fair? I said, how the
hell did you meet this guy?Yeah? So we had a mutual online
friend named Stephen McConnell who runs kindof a wine critic site, review side
blog and then has moved over toInstagram, and he does very eclectic,
very razor sharp reviews of wines thatKeegan enjoys, and he's always been a

(02:20:31):
quote unquote fan of my wines.So when Keegan made the trip out to
California looking for wineries to bring toCincinnati, Stephen McConnell gave him my name
and along with our friend Bobby moywho's a Napa Valley producer and I'm a
Santa Barbara County producer and just sendhim some samples. He enjoyed the wine,

(02:20:52):
so decided to bring him out.They've been doing well, so now
he's brought me out here to parademe around and on the media outlets media
well you know, I mean,okay, I don't know anybody who listening
audience who has heard of Dusty Nabornab O r right. Ye, I
had not heard of him for today. And then again, I'm not a
by any stretching the imagination of winekind of Sorry I point out all the

(02:21:13):
time, but you are one ofa lot of wineries out there, smaller
producer, not like the Gallows ofthe world or whatever. But you got
these wonderful vineyards out there. Youneed someone to spread the word about how
awesome they are. And that's wheresomebody like Keegan comes in, because he's
in this region of the country bringingyour yet unknown wines to us so we

(02:21:33):
can all love and enjoy them.It's a great relationship. Absolutely, And
how has Ignition Wine's been doing sinceyou kicked it off? New businesses are
tough, man, It's it is, but it's a lot of fun.
You know. I'm enjoying the freedomvery much, so not that I have
free time, but the freedom tohandle my business the way I like,
you know kind of thing. Andit's it's it's fun being scrappy and just

(02:21:54):
working hard and seeing the direct benefitand result of your own labor. It's
it's really really neat. It's it'svery rewarding. It's hard. I'm not
gonna say that it's not hard.It's extremely hard. But business has been
great. The reception to the winesthat I brought into the area is as
amazing, and I'm just glad that, you know, there's a lot of
people out there that also share thesame enthusiasm for those wines that I have.

(02:22:16):
Because when I tried dust these winesthat they I mean, they knocked
my socks off. They're absolutely sosupremely well crafted. And you know,
we've been working the sins Ani market. I you know, God bless him
because he you know, I've beenlike it's been a death march. It
feels like because yesterday we were,you know, from sun up to sundown
just bouncing all over town. Buteverywhere we went, you know, everyone

(02:22:39):
really enjoyed the stuff that he produces, so got to get proud of people.
Got to get people to taste itand they're like, Holy cow,
and then they can get them fromyou. So strong encouragement. The retailers
out there and restaurants out there getin touch with Ignition wines. I'm not
guide, I don't advertise for him, but I love Keegan and his passion
for wine is so odd. Youjust have a face to face conversation with

(02:23:01):
Keegan and you can just see thegleam in his eyes. Loves what he
does, and he's the kind ofguy that's never going to steer you the
wrong way. And of course theseDusty Nimore wines are an illustration of that.
Not that I would ever drink whilethe morning show is going on,
but we're going to talk about someof these. He's got some great selections
and ideas for us coming up,so stick around. We'll have him for
the balance of the program, whichI am very very happy about. On

it's five one three two four sevenzero two two nine five one three
two four seven zero two two ninefifty five KRC the talk station. Hey,
if you're listening to me right now, I have one thing every business
needs most tension. Think about it. We swipe in some corporant of Ignition

(02:24:31):
Wines, wholesale distributor of some fantasticwines that maybe you never heard of.
But with Keegan's knowledge and expertise andwines, he ain't gonna steer you in
the wrong direction. He separates thewheat from the chaff. And he brought
in some serious wheat today with hisfriend Dustin nabora of Dustin Nibor Wines,
which you can check out online aswell Dusty Nabor Wine dot com. That's
easy. And I talk about refreshing, you make a chardon a and min

(02:25:00):
standing is you don't filter it.That's correct. And as a consequence,
we were talking about this off air, you get just just this tiniest,
little tiny bit of effervescence. Yeah, but sometimes yeah, and that's not
normal for a chardonnay. You thinkof a sparkling wine. This is just

(02:25:20):
an ever so slight but it makesit extraordinarily refreshing. And I think it
adds an element to the wine thatyou don't normally run into in a shardenay.
And I like Chardonnay's typically sure.Yeah, I mean, as I
mentioned, there's a balance between whatI'm trying to do and the effects or
results of that, And I don'tfeel that filtering helps the wine in any

(02:25:43):
way. I try to make thewines as stable as possible without filtering them,
without filtering out the bacteria, withoutfiltering out the yeast, and and
keep the wines alive for as longas possible. And there's there's a consequence
to that where if there is avery very small amount of sugar left in
the wines, then something will consumethat and expel the carbon dioxide. Now
I don't take that to an extreme. The effor vescence is almost imperceptible,

(02:26:07):
exactly. It's I would never bottlea chardonnaye that's going to push a cork
out or something like that. Youknow. I do make pet Nats a
purposeful sparkling wine. We use acrown cap, we do it properly.
But in this chardonnay, there wasa very very small amount of sugar.
I knew that if the bottle gotwarm, there would be a slight possibility
of effervescence, and I seriously justdon't mind it. It was not enough

(02:26:31):
for me to make the decision torun the wine through a sterile filter.
Well, in sterile filterization. That'sgot to be a fairly recent advent,
correct, I mean yeah, Imean yeah, we're so this year.
Yeah, this is a more traditionalway of making the wine. Correct,
This is what the natural Yes,exactly. So. Back in the in
the day, wines were made bytechnique. They had a technique that resulted

(02:26:52):
in a good stable wine. Andthat's pretty much what I do. I
don't really make wine by chemistry.How big is your winery? I make
about twenty five hundred cases. It'sjust me. I don't have any employees.
I do it all myself. Thatis a level where I feel I
can do all the work on myown and be able to accomplish everything correctly.
So every wine that you have isone hundred percent touched by me and

(02:27:15):
only me. The only time Ido have help is during bottling. That's
the only time I can't do itmyself. Now. It's just I grew
up from farming stock. I wasnot ever a farmer. My wife is
the daughter of a farmer. Iknow what kind of work is involved in
keeping a farm going. I don'tknow anything about keeping a winery going.
It's got to be a laboral love, it is, for sure. You

(02:27:37):
know, Keegan was just talking abouthow he enjoys being scrappy and it's tough,
but it's rewarding. It's you know, it's the same thing. It's
I enjoy the winery work because duringharvest, which is a few months in
September, October, November, thework is insanely intense. It's it's you
know, sun up to sundown allday long. Nothing waits for you because

(02:27:58):
I don't make wine. The microbiologymakes the wine. Yeah, so I'm
on their schedule and I just haveto do everything in a certain timeframe and
I don't get to take a breakwhen that is happening. But I do
enjoy the intensity. And then whentrvest is over, I get to relax
and it's a rewarding feeling. It'sthe same thing like I do endurance sports

(02:28:18):
and people always ask me, Idon't understand, is that is riding a
bike for five hours fun. It'shorrible, but when you're done, it's
super rewarding. You get that feelingof being rewarded that you've done something really
hard and you're proud of what youdo and you have a good quality product,
and that way when you see peoplesmiling and you reflect back on your

(02:28:39):
label, You're like, yeah,I pat yourself on the back. Job
well done. It makes it allworth Why, Yeah, I agree.
It's all my ability to choose greatvineyards. I don't do any other farming
myself. I source all the winesfrom vineyards, and the vineyards I work
with are fantastic. So that's reallythe ability to see what that vineyard's going
to produce, have the right techniquesto see it into the bottle is really

(02:29:01):
my skill. Will continue with KeeganCorcoran and Dusty Nimbo or of Dustin anymore.
His name's on the bottle, he'sgot to be proud of it,
Like who would put their name ona bottle of something that wasn't great.
So, and we're gonna learn aboutthe Pina and War and a couple other
ones Keegan has selected from this group. Again, you can find Keegan online

listen to this song in its entiretyon a Friday. Gee, say it

(02:30:58):
out out, Joey Ramone. Whata wonderful world it is, especially when
you got some wonderful, wonderful friendsin the room talking about wine, and
those friends of be Keegan Corcoran ofmy a new friend, Dusty Niboro.
Dusty Nibor Wines one of the smallwineries that Keegan and Ignition Wines is bringing
to our region of the country.Otherwise we wouldn't know about it. And

(02:31:18):
that's what wine distributors like Keegan do, head around meet all these wonderful folks
making these craft wines. Obviously witha tremendous amount of passion, as we
learned from Dusty what it takes todo it and the hard work that's involved.
You end up with a great productthat people need to know about.
And thanks to Keegan for spreading thelove this morning and Dusty for showing up
and studio to talk about it.Dusty, we got your pinot. You're

(02:31:41):
recommending it at least one of theones that Keegan has selected. We talked
about the Chardonnay and also a Cabernetsaalvignon from n s O N s O.
I'll let Dusty, Yeah, what'sNSO that does not have your name
on it? Dusty, Yeah,that is That idea came to me on
a run one day. When thelabel initially took off. It had a

(02:32:07):
a sort of cult following, andthe wines were moving very very quickly because
it was a small production and theywere getting gobbled up. And I had
a lot of friends that didn't understandthat they couldn't buy the wines that you
know, they're they're wine people,but they're not wine central people. They're
kind of wine adjacent and they wantedto support and they're like, I don't

(02:32:28):
understand what's going on. We havetwo weeks to buy the wine and then
they're sold out. That's ridiculous.We make that year did So I'm like,
Okay, I need to do somethingfor the people that want to support
me that don't quite have the samecapacity online to deal with a mailing list
and an allocation. So I cameup with NSO Wines. It is my

(02:32:50):
value driven labeled. The NSO standsfor no Special Occasion and it's twenty to
twenty five dollars wines that are stillmade by me super high quality. Oftentimes
there are wines that don't have thepersonality that I want under my dusty neighbor
label, so they go under theNSO label. They deliver ultra high quality

(02:33:11):
for a very very affordable price.Oh, ultra high quality. I can
assure you of that if I werein a position to be able to sample
this beverage on the video fib GarycyMorning Show, which I'm not, Well,
what a fascinating life, And Imean it's I think it's everybody wants
to own a restaurant until they realizewhat's involved in the restaurant business. Then
you're like, uh no, howmuch meat do I buy on any given

(02:33:33):
week that I'm not going to havea whole bunch of waste or you know,
throwing things away or spoil it.A lot of people I've thought,
you would it be cool to owna winery, you know, just like
you know, making wine, andyeah, it's like going to the craft
brewery. And then there's you findout there's a whole lot of work that
that goes along with it. Ican only imagine how much more difficult it
is to actually produce good wine ascompared to And this is not to detegrate

(02:33:54):
the value of craft breweries, butyou know you got seventy five craft breweries
around the Greatater Cincinnati Ara alone.Clearly it is not a as much perhaps
of a science as it is ofhaving to farm the grapes and uh and
produce this wine. So it's neathaving you in studio to talk about it.
And of course I'll encourage my listenerswhen they're out and about at their

(02:34:15):
local wine merchant who've been dealing withKeegan Corcoran and Ignition Wines, to get
yourself of some of Dusty's wine,Dusty Neeble or an abo Ar. You're

Dusty. It's been real fun.Threat I'm glad. Hey it's a

(02:34:37):
nice place. It is been superfun. Listen. It took me eight
years a little bit in Chicago torealize what I had growing up here,
and the greatest decision one of thebeyond after marrying my wife. Another thing
was moving back to this greater Cincinnatiarea. It really is an outstanding community
overall. We do have flaws,but not nearly as many as most gentlemen.
