10.8: Roblox Lawsuit, Louisville Kings, Curfew

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Good morning everybody. A little different from yesterday, and I'm
very happy about that. We are brought to you by
the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety. Dwight has been posting
if you are Facebook friends with him from Cabo. Last
night he went to see his doppelganger, which is Sammy Hagar.
Austin is with me today? What's up brother? Doing good?

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Happy?

Speaker 1 (00:24):
It's gonna be a good day today. I sent you
a Wednesday's Hero today. Yes it is. It's a little
longer than my normal Wednesday's Hero and I actually took
it off the internet. It is not it's not something
that I'm not a part of it. It's a story
of a marine sniper in Vietnam. Nice and it's uh,

(00:48):
it's worth it if you're in your car. I don't
think you're gonna be able to get out of your
car if you start to listen to it. So it's
that good. And it's a story, and it's a and
it needs to be told. And that's why we do
Wednesday's Hero every Wednesday at ten oh five, So we
will do that. Plus at eleven fifteen we have the
mayor coming on. I'm going to ask him about curfews,

(01:12):
because I don't think there's anyone that's not informed that
there is large groups of twelve year olds running around
smashing cars and stealing from homes every single night. So
there are curfews that you can do. I think they
I think they did that during COVID for a little

(01:33):
bit of time. But there are cities similar to US, Cincinnati,
Memphis that have curfews, and it depends on the age
and the time. Okay, so if you're under whatever, seventeen,
here's your time that you have to be in or
you can't be out in the streets. So I'm going
to ask him about it. At some point. We've got
to do something because it's not working. And I love

(01:54):
I'm in Saint Matthews and I have forty five great
police officers, but they their hands are taught, and our
streak gets hit almost every single night. Of course, my
window got busted out Sunday night, and that's part of
the other scary thing is that it happened at nine thirty, right,

(02:16):
so it's not even happening at two in the morning
or three in the morning where they're just trying to
look for something. They hit all trucks by the way,
it was all pickup trucks, because I assume they think
if you have a pickup truck, you have a gun
under the seat. But they smashed out three windows and
then couldn't smash out the fourth, so they hit it
with it and it cracked it but didn't bust it open.
Or they got scared and they ran out. But they're

(02:37):
all twelve, thirteen, fourteen years old. These are all juveniles
running around smashing things up, and it's almost every single night.
So I don't know why you wouldn't have a curfew
just to slow things down for quite a bit. Also,
this story, I wanted to dive into it a little
bit more before I started to talk about it yesterday

(02:59):
as we were talking talking yesterday, Russell Coleman, Kentucky attorney,
is suing the gaming and social media platform Roadblocks, which
I've never heard of before in my life, kind of
like bad money. Yes, I'm fifty six years old. I'm sorry,
I don't know roadblocks or bad money. But I didn't
know either one of those. And then I read the

(03:20):
stat that two thirds of children between nine and twelve
in the United States play on that platform.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
It's very popular.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Have you been on that platform.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
I've never been on Roadblocks now.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
I think I just you know, I just missed the
curve by the time I was growing up.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Okay, I forgot it, all right. So it's been around
a while.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
It's been around a while at least, yes, I think
at least for like fifteen to twenty years now.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
I think they had a mom from Louisville with three
kids that talked about it, that said she did everything
she could, set set boundaries, looked at their devices, all that,
and still still got caught up in this thing. Public
reports have shown that Roadblocks has become an environment for
predators and other bad actors, including so called assassination simulators.

(04:13):
Following the horrific killing of Charlie Kirk. It's crazy.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
He can do a lot of weird things on that website,
on that.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Platform, apparently, so Roadblocks And get this, got this number
from WDRB. The company is valued at forty one billion
dollars and didn't go public until twenty one. Wow, didn't
go public till twenty twenty one and is worth forty

(04:44):
one billion dollars. Well, I guess if two thirds of
American children are on this thing. But yesterday, Russell Coleman said,
go home, delete that app from your kid's devices. But
as you would attest to, because you're a rambunctious youngster,
you put it right back on there right. I wonder

(05:06):
if you can block it. I assume you can.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
There's got to be a way to protect your correct.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
And I don't know what this will come out of it,
but guess what they're worth? Forty one billion dollars. I
can't imagine the revenue that they's generated by this website,
but well they do pay Kentucky a billion dollars. That's
nothing to them. Kind of sounds like the pharmaceutical industry. Yeah,
we kind of know these pills are gonna kill you

(05:31):
or get addicted, but we've already factored that dollar into
the lawsuits into our bottom line. Will make four billion
off this drug, pay out two billion. That means we
make two billion. So again, I'm not I don't know
who owns Roadblocks, and you would hate to compare them

(05:52):
too's pharmaceutical downfalls. But man, they say Roadblocks has been
quoted to say that they have gaps and people that
that's all they do for them is to monitor conversations
and monitor exchanges and looking for bad actors. I mean,
if this does anything but to add to the number

(06:14):
of people that do that for that company, I think
it would be great. So there you go. The other
story is you want these two ladies where are the names?
They live in Jeffersonville. These two ladies in Jeffersonville. They
are like sort of the watchdog Alisa, I'm sorry, Alyssa

(06:37):
Alissa Holland and Eva bay Eva bail Is. They're part
of Hoo's Your Actions and they've been holding community listening
sessions for the new data center that's going on right
across the river. So this is going to be a
very good test waters for uh, you know, because they
want to build about a dozen of those things in
Louisville Oldham County just kick theirs out got close to

(07:00):
being built in Oldham County, and it did mean a
lot of tax dollars or you know, Meta was helping
out with a lot of that's going on in southern Indiana.
But part of the problem is they're saying that your
water bill electric bills are going to go up double
digit okay, like eleven percent for water specifically because which

(07:22):
I didn't know this electricity are they going to have
the infrastructure for this, Well, no, America doesn't have the
infrastructure to build these data centers. But the water, they
use so much water and it's not reusable, like they

(07:44):
can't clean it and reuse it because it evaporates. Because
all the water does is keep the computers cool. And
I can't imagine the heat that comes off those things
because we don't have a lot of computers in this room.
But if the air goes out and it's just there's
no airflow, it will get to eighty degrees eighty five

(08:04):
degrees pretty quickly in here, just because of the computers
and the screens and everything else that we have in
this room. And I know in our we call them
stack rooms, but in radio we have stack rooms. We
have eight radio stations and we have stack rooms, whether
they just all these things are in one room. In
the old building, we just had an air conditioning duck

(08:26):
that we had cut out, and they just blew cold
air on the thing twenty four hours a day on
full blast, just to keep them cool. Even though they
have their own little fan in the bottom, they still
create a lot of heat. So that is that these
two ladies, Alyssa Holland and Eva Bell, who's your action?

(08:48):
Good for those ladies they're watching after and going, Look,
they're not attacking the metadata center, they're just telling the
facts of here's what's going to happen. Here is kind
of crazy. So a lot in the news today, including
another story we really tried to get to yesterday but
we couldn't because the weather was all crazy and planes

(09:11):
are coming off runways. And that video of the roadway
on plant Side Drive in Jaytown where it started to
collapse and then went all the way across looks like
about fifteen to twenty feet maybe yards across crushed down.
That's pretty busy area. That's a pretty busy area, and

(09:35):
obviously you cannot traverse that. They are trying to get
people out there right now to fix that bad boy.
But here's another one. Did you see the story Austin
about the two guys that were stealing wallets out of
grocery carts from old folks?

Speaker 2 (09:48):
No?

Speaker 1 (09:48):
I did not, Okay. One of his name is Virgil Mosey.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Virgil right.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Virgil Mosey is also Tada, a pastor in a South inchurch.
Can't run wrong. I believe Virgil.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Mosey course at South End Church.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
Well, I don't know. So he here's he gets even weirder.
So you like, the pastor is stealing credit cards from
old people at grocery cards. Yes, and then it gets weirder.
The guy admits after they they I guess because he's
a pastor, he follows Christ. He was just felt so
bad about it. He went ahead and admitted, Yeah, it's me.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
It was me.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
I did that. In matter of fact, I've been a
pickpocket since I was twelve years old, and I've done
this thousands of times.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Now.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
You would think you steal a credit card from the
old lady, she doesn't figure it out until you use
it a little bit, and you're thinking, what could you
possibly buy him? Between that time or what they were
doing was DA buying those visa cash cards. They were
going to target in all those places and they got
those cash cards and they were putting three hundred bucks
or whatever it is, up to five thousand dollars per

(11:01):
card before it was shut down, So they were making bank.
And once you buy that cash car, the visa cash card,
it's you know, it's done. You have that cash card
with that money on it, so it's not petty crime,
and the fact that he just admitted it was going

(11:22):
through his head. I wonder, I's just waiting to get caught,
because who gets in the back of the squad car
and says, yeah, man, I've been doing this since I
was twelve. I did it. That's me, been doing it
since I was twelve, done it thousands of times, Virgil Mosey.
I saw pictures of the church. It's not a very
large church, but still a pastor. But I thought that

(11:45):
was just unbelievable or believable in today's world as we
live and die in louis of Kentucky. The other announcement
was the football team coming to Lynn Family Stadium. But
from what I understand, the team will practice and live

(12:05):
in Texas and fly in for the games.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
I didn't know that.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
So from what I understand, and we have the mayor
on a little bit later, maybe he knows a little
bit more about it, the minutia of the whole thing.
But the Louisville Kings, from what I understand, will will
practice and live in Texas, and they just were looking
for better stadiums and better you know, in cities with
better stadiums, they want to reduce the size of the stadiums,

(12:36):
and Lynn Family Stadium is perfect at fourteen thousand seats.
The King Louis obviously after King Louis. Well, they'll live
in a different city and just kind of fly in
for the games. I don't know if I like that.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Yeah, me either. I mean my first time hearing about it.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
I love football, and it's going to be.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
Great having football of that sort.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Yes, and real football.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
I don't want the weird you know, plays and quarters
and and all that stuff. I want real four quarters football, refs,
one hundred yards, YadA YadA, real football. And I love it.
I love the sport. I love football, can watch it
all day long. I got the NFL ticket for the
first time in my life this year. My wife got
it for me. Really yeah, let me tell you it's

(13:26):
not bad. It was thirty It's like thirty bucks.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
A month and gotten down a little bit.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
Yeah, well, it's your first time user. It's it's a
real deal.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
But being able to watch any game I want on
Sunday and not.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
Had to go to a bar, Oh my gosh. It's
like you have the power of the world in your hands.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
I've been able to watch more Steelers than I have
in twenty years. Sure, when I was younger, You're right,
we'd go to Buffalo wil Wing's I meet my Steeler buddies.
Because if you're my age, you're either a Dallas fan
or a Steelers fan, right, and some Packers fans are
sprinkled in there, you know, go to the bar and
hang out. I'm going to the bar on Sunday. So

(14:08):
having an NFL ticket, it's awesome. I love football, CA
watch it all day long. So that's interesting. We'll find
out more about that too, and what the dynamics of
the team. And again, if that's the setup, that's the setup.
They fly in and play and then they fly back out.
I think Lowell would probably want more of a or
maybe not. Maybe they're like I don't care where they live.

(14:31):
But Lynn Family Stadium is perfect. And I said it yesterday.
This will set up I's all of rendering with the
goalpost in it. This will set up for the Trinity
San next game to move over there. I have no
inside information. I've talked to nobody on either side. Uh,
but I would imagine they sort of hinted at it.
They played at each other stadiums through COVID and all

(14:52):
that kind of stuff, right, uh, And it went really well.
It went really well. Some playoff games were played at
turnd and st X for that rivalry into the playoffs
and it went really well. So I think that kind
of planted the seed. The problem is Cardinal Stadium is
just too big. It's just too big for that now
old Cardinal Stadium. At the height of that game, there

(15:14):
was thirty six thousand fans that would go to that game.
Now it's about eighteen on eighteen thousand, and.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
That's a lot.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
That's a lot of people going to a high school
football game. Yeah, dude, it's a lot of people. Eighteen thousand.
But it just doesn't fit Cardinal Stadium anymore. And it's
neat to say you're playing at Cardinal Stadium. And it
used to be oh, you're playing on the turf, and
it was like, well, everybody's got turf now. But I
think Lynn Family Stately will be a perfect option for
that because now it's fourteen thousand seats and it will

(15:42):
sell out. Now it will sell out every year and
every seat will be filled and it'll look amazing and
it'll give it to give the ticket value. Now people
are going to be scrambling for st X Trinity and said,
of I'll buy when I get there, because you know
there's going to be plenty. What's going on, dude, including

(16:04):
those I got some really personal videos from Dwight last night.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
Oh boy, there we go.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Not good?

Speaker 2 (16:11):
You buried the lead.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Yeah, dude, still not the same. That's why I can't
concentrate this morning. If you've been looking for a place
for your parents or a parents, or you, or it's you,
and you're thinking, I don't want to stay in the house.
I want to I need to get a retirement community

(16:33):
trade note Towers. I gotta tell you it's independent, it's nonprofit.
It is an eleven story building in Old Louisville and
it is beautiful. It used to be a hospital fifty
years ago, but it is a fantastic facility. They have
four restaurants, They have ballrooms. They have a ballroom with

(16:54):
forty foot ceilings that looks like you're walking into the
nineteen forty five dance. It's beautiful. They have a movie theater.
They have a rooftop deck that overlooks Old Louisville and
Saint James Court and all that it is beautiful. They
have all the medical folks there twenty four hours a day.
They have physical therapy on site. You will never have

(17:15):
to leave the facility to do your physical therapy. And
it is and you can remodel the condos if you
want one two three bedroom places you could remodel. We
went and visited one and they it was a couple
that was moving in and they had torn it down
to the studs. They were redoing the entire three bedroom.
It was looking great and their view from their huge

(17:36):
windows and their view was amazing of Louisville. So check
them out. Trade and Oak Towers. If you take the tour,
you'll move in five eight nine thirty two eleven. Trayton
Oak Towers five eight nine thirty two eleven. Call it
now and get an appointment. All right, short break, we'll
come back. Long day today. Are a big show today,
matter of fact, but the Mayor's coming on and you

(17:56):
do not want to miss Wednesday's Hero at ten oh five.
Lock it in Austin, Montgomery is with me Tony Vannetti
on News Radio eight fortys. Welcome back news Radio eight
forty WHS Tony and Dwight Chill brought to you by
the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety. Austin Montgomery with me today,
and I think we have gone pumpkin crazy. You know,

(18:18):
Iroquoi Park started it, and now everyone is doing the
pumpkin carving thing. I think there's like five thousand pumpkins
at Iroquois.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Park right now.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, it's a lot, and they keep adding to it, right,
and they have everything. They'll have like an iron man
carved into a pumpkin, right, and it's all lit up
and it's really cool. Plus you get to walk through
the park and you see it all and it's really
kind of amazing sight when you walk through it. But
now Kentucky Kingdom has a pumpkin carving thing you can
walk through, right. And now Newport Aquarium was like, yeah, okay,

(18:50):
whatever ours are going to be underwater, dude, that's cool.
So they have underwater pumpkins carved like jaws just to
the kids. Kidding. But now, I mean again, I like pumpkins. Uh,
they've gotten a lot cheaper over the last couple of years.
They used to be ten fifteen bucks. Now you can

(19:11):
get a pretty good pumpkin to like Walmart or Kroger
for like five bucks.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
And then I saw these what they're called knucklehead pumpkins
at Kroger. They were six bucks, and uh, they have
like gross on them, and I'm like, I wonder if
that was like by accident or they got too much
water or too little water or whatever it was. And
they were like, yeah, we should just give it a
name and charge a dollar more. Knucklehead pumpkins. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
That's I was answering a text for my fiance. That's
the pumpkins that look like that, they have little knots
on it.

Speaker 4 (19:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
Yeah, I don't like that. That's upsetting.

Speaker 1 (19:51):
I did not like it either, like unsettling. I don't
want a knucklehead pumpkin. And just because you gave it,
gave it a cool name like knucklehead pumpkin, I'm not
paying an extra dollar for it, that's for sure. I
want the regular orange pumpkin.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
The regular one that you can carve.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
Give me the regular punkin. Uh. We pretty much every
year dig it out and we'll uh we screw it
up sometimes in the oven, but we will. We'll cook
up the pumpkin seats. It's the right amount of salt,
is the right answer there and how long you cook
them and how long you bake them, but you put
that in a bowl and just kind of chew on
them every once in a while. And then the carvings

(20:29):
for people have really gotten really good. You can buy
carving kits. Back in the day, it was the butter
knife and the you know, you just went out there
and tried to make the little triangles and triangles here
and getting it done. Do you like the part where
you put your hand in and kind of scoop it

(20:50):
out and it's like gooey, like you're doing surgery. Yeah? No, no, no,
I don't either. I don't know why. It seems creepy
to me.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
You're just like disemboweling this usin.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm disabowing a pumpkin.
Depending on the size of the pumpkin, it could be
really gross.

Speaker 3 (21:12):
And it just it's very stringy too. That's it all
came out easier and wasn't so stringy that I wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
Have a problem with it. Amen, You're you just kept
happened to go back and smooth that.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
Truth and the lie that pumpkin pie is pumpkin It's
not it's not pumpkin.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
I like to keep the illusion that it is.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Thank you, thank you. Any pie that you have to
douse in whipped cream or whatever, this what is that
cool whip or whatever you got to put on top whip?
Cool cool.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
You can't have a pie without cool foot.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
We are we are pumpkin crazy in Kentucky. We're gonna
take a short break. We got news coming up next.
Plenty in there, and we'll come back. I might take
calls on that question. I'm going to ask the mayor,
which is are we going to do a juvenile curfew?
It's needed. These crazy bands of twelve year olds terrorizing

(22:06):
neighborhoods everywhere. I'm not laughing. It sucks and everyone's getting
hit and it needs to stop. So we'll ask about
it in a little bit back after this on news
radio eight forty whs oh, you give us a call.
We'll do a little couple of calls segments here. I
got the X screen up Austin five seven one eight

(22:27):
four eight four got two topics. Are you excited about
the Louisville Kings football team coming to play five games
here at Lynn Famley Stadium. I know I'm going to
go for sure. I don't think they'll be on TV.
I'm excited about that. Plus I'm gonna ask the mayor
about a possible juvenile curfew. Other cities like Cincinnati and

(22:49):
Memphis already have them, and they've set it up to
where it's different ages. So if you're under fifteen, it's
a certain time, if you're over fifteen sixteen, there's a
certain time because some seventeen year olds work and all that,
so it's different times, and there's differ different times for
a week day than a week end. But they got
to be able to do something. You got to give

(23:11):
the chief of police a tool in the toolbox to
help at some point. Because our neighborhood is out of control.
There are little bands of twelve year olds running around,
smashing windows and stealing stuff. They're looking for guns too,
but they're looking to steal stuff, mostly guns. But it's

(23:33):
almost every single night. Just a couple of weeks ago,
we saw Saint Matthew's police running through yards. They were
chasing after three different sets of twelve year olds. And
then the other night smash window. They got four trucks
within six houses in my neighborhood. Of course, I had
to move to a nice neighborhood that you broke it into.

(23:55):
But five seventy one eight four eight four is the
number you excited about football? Are you going to go
to the games? You like the name? For some reason, fans,
I missed this era because I'm not really a big
uniform or helmet guy. If it looks really cool, I'm like, oh, okay, cool, right.
But I also really love Alabama and their simple simplicity

(24:16):
and the Penn State Penn State in Alabama. I like that.
I like that Oregon started this whole thing with Nike
years ago and everybody followed soon. Pretty different jerseys in
combination and everything else. But I will say, uh, the
East End is big. Is getting hit every single night,

(24:40):
every single night. Five one eight four eight four is
the phone number. Give me your top thoughts. Where do
you live Austin?

Speaker 3 (24:46):
I live right right at the very end of Baxter Avenue.
You know where the little volleyball play where they play
Master Jacks. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's almost in my backyard.
I could see the lights and right where the backs driving.
We've had issues forever, yes, So I've actually noticed ever
since they kind of increased police presence and stopped all

(25:08):
the street takeovers over there.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
On the weekends. Yep, it's gotten a lot calmer.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
You can actually, no businesses like the Taco Bell and
the McDonald's they were closing their parking lots because people
were going in there parking and just gathering up.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
And if you're a late night snacker like.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
I am, then it's it's pretty tough when you try
to turn into Taco Bell at eleven o'clock on a
Friday and they got barricaded off.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
So that's changed, and it's hit or miss when it
comes to Taco Bell late at night.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
Yes, it is okay.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
You could eat, you could whip through the drive through,
or it could be forty five minutes to get a
you know, a Nachell Bell Grande in a taco I
like to go if Salceerritas was open at that time.
Salceritas is where I would gom.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
Little twenty four hours on the weekend.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
Pam, yeah, Pam, twenty four hours open.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
They have a drive through forse munchie guys.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
A couple of locations have a drive through, so that
helps again. Five one eight four eight four is the
phone number if you ought to talk about this football team.
And again I think I'm pretty sure ninety percent sure
that the team will live in Texas, Dallas maybe, and
the team and the coaches won't live here. They'll just
fly in for the games.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
So it's their honorary.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
Louisvilliams sort of a home game. But if you're flying in,
that's a I mean, isn't it technically a road game?

Speaker 3 (26:29):
What do you think about the logo because me and
Terry we're talking about this and along with Paul Miles
yesterday when they did the official like promo unveiling, I
think they even said Louisville wrong, but they didn't.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
They didn't say it. They didn't say it like, well
you do.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
And uh, there's just something like neon green just doesn't
fit Louisville for whatever reason. I'm not saying they should
go all on out card red or black, but also
at the same time, it's kind of what the city
is and what it's kind of adapt to. Or if
you're just gonna play in the same stadium as the
soccer teams, just make them purple as well.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
I mean, no, I would have Uh, it's a crown, right,
it's a crowd.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
It's like a the horse is cool.

Speaker 3 (27:11):
They got then they got the crown, and but just
that the really weird electric green that they have, it
feels like that doesn't fit the city of Louisville, Kentucky.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
I would have rather had like a King Arthur type
deal with a sword looking really tough, like a like
a mix between Conan the Barbarian and a king. Yeah, okay,
something more aggressive. I mean football is still the last
gladiator sport, dude, Okay, it is a tough sport. No

(27:44):
one's healthy after game one. You get hurt, you play hurt.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
Yep, you don't stay healthy through the whole season. That's impossible.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
No, no, no, there's a difference between hurt and injured.
Every coach will tell you that in football. Are you injured.
If you're injured, you're sitting. If you're hurt, snap up through,
snap up, snap up. I mean, I don't know how
many times after game two or three, really, really, there's
very few people that are healthy one hundred percent healthy

(28:16):
in this Well. We've got starting to get callers now
or five you're on the air, now, there you go, five, seven, one, eight,
four eighty four is the phone number either topic football
you want to talk about football, or should there be
a juvenile curfew to where they can at least have
a tool to be able to scoop up some of
these twelve, thirteen, and fourteen year olds that are roaming

(28:39):
around and you know what they're doing, and you can
scoop them up. Say it's curfew. You got to be in,
you got to be got to be back home. Other
cities have already done it. We did it to a
certain extent during COVID because that was going on. It
was really bad during COVID. Remember those teenagers are going around.
Let's talk to Jim online too. Jim, you're on NewsRadio
eight forty.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
H is Hey, Tony's good to hear your voice. I've
been listening to you for a lot of years.

Speaker 1 (29:03):
Thanks man, appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (29:04):
Yeah, sir, Hey, hey, I want to talk to you
about the Data center comments that were made. Some things
were said that weren't quite right, and I was hoping
you'd let me clear the record.

Speaker 1 (29:13):
Sure, go for it.

Speaker 4 (29:14):
So what was said was they use a lot of water,
they do, but that the water can never be used again.
I do industrial water treatment. I'm an engineer. I've been
doing it for thirty two years. Every factory you can
think of, in even tall buildings use water to cool
their equipment, every one of them. And data centers are
no different. And the water does get reused. After it

(29:38):
goes through the process and eats up and it's cooled
with fans, it goes to MSD. MSD, you know, processes
it and puts it right back into the river and
then somebody down the river uses it again. Okay, wasted water, Yeah,
I think it is not.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Yeah, the interview I saw the jim the interview I
saw was that the lady said it evaporates, So it
doesn't you don't use it again? And again I don't know. Well,
my wife sells equipment to these data centers, but it's electricity,
it's not water, So I don't I couldn't get her
opinion on it.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
But they do evaporate, tony, They evaporate a ton of water,
and every factory that's what they do. You evaporate water
because evaporation causes cooling. And so when you you evafforate
water to cause cooling, and that causes the calcium that's
left behind to build up, so you have to treat
for that. Eventually you dump that back that calcium rich
water back to the city.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
Everybody, you sound like you know what you're talking about.
How much water for a data center in that in Jeffersonville,
is that going to take you think you you wouldn't
know that number. But it's a lot.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
It's a lot. It is a lot. But for instance,
LG and E is using millions of gallons.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
Oh yeah, probably per day, you know.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
Yeah, the steam turns the turbine, so you got to
turn that into the water turns into steam.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:51):
Yeah, but then you also use cooling water to condense
the steam to cause a vacuum to make the turbines
go faster and easier. So yeah, you use a ton
of water to evaporate for every process. We have a
little almost including bourbon. Making bourbon, we got to use
gooling water to make bourbon.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
So but are they going to have to adjust? Are
they going to have to build more water plants and
or electric facilities to feed the data center because if
Jeffersonville's got one, they're going to do six. Right.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
Sure, I can't speak to the electric because that's not
my industry. But the water there, we are so rich
in water sitting right in the Ohio River that we
just we are just primed for this. They're great, great
tax revenue makers. They're going to help the schools with
more tax revenue. I mean, I would love to see
some data centers come. They're they're very clean. They're they're

(31:43):
not dirty like you know, you've got rubber Town is
is a you know a lot of dirty air. We
have no dirty air on a data center. It's very
clean process.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
No, yeah, I'm with you. No, I'm with you. And
as long as the tax dollars, Oldham County I think
was going to get fifty five million dollars per year
in tax revenue. So and they just they just did
not want it. They just didn't want it in Oldham County.
And they're not a big it's a big footprint to
a certain extent, but it's not big. It's not it's
not like the VA Center off Brownsboro Road that issue

(32:15):
Monts exactly.

Speaker 4 (32:17):
Yeah. I'd love to have break it to Harton County
where I live.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
All Right, all right, I appreciate your knowledge, my friend,
Thanks for listening. Brother, you got it. Let's talk to
Joey online one. Joey, what's your topic?

Speaker 5 (32:29):
Hey, Tony, Hey, I just wanted the Kings, the Louisville Kings. Yeah,
I'm excited to hear the announcement, you know, me to
Hardul fan, so you know I'm gonna go to something
like that. I wasn't too sure about the name at first,
but I guess it'll grow on you. But yeah, I
gotta say the colors and I saw it. Did it
not remind you of the poison Unskinny Bop era Collors?

(32:55):
Did it not? The green? I was like Skinny Bomp Like, okay.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
Well the owner is yeah, yeah, the owner is a
horse guy, so I understand the horse being in there, right.
The King of sports YadA YadA. Uh, you know he's
playing off a lot of things. It's not just King Louis.
It's the King of sports, Mohammad Ali's King of boxings,
all that kind of stuff. So, uh, he's doing that.
But yes, I'm with you if it especially if it's
only it's five games, right uh. And if it's price,
if it's price right, then I'm going to be going

(33:25):
there because I'm going to guess it's not going to
be on TV or are those games on a network
somewhere right?

Speaker 5 (33:32):
Yeah, I'll definitely go. I talked to all of my
buddies yesterday after the announcement. We both said, yeah, yeah,
we'll be we'll definitely go check them out. And both
of us were talking about the colors though. We were like,
you know, let me on green, and I hope they can.
They can mix it up somehow, you know, with some
black or something. But we'll see. But the first thing
that pomped into my mind, I started coming, Okay.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
Yeah, I'm with you, Joey. And look, my niece lives
in Burringhammer, Tuscaloosa. She lives in Tuscalusa, but I think
they have a team near her, and she's she was excited.
She texted and said, you're gonna love the league. We
go to the games down here. So look, I'm all
for it. More football, I me and Joey.

Speaker 5 (34:12):

let's go.

How many losses for Louisville this year over under oh Man?

Speaker 5 (34:21):
The offensive line is not good, Miller, Moms, it's raddled. Man,
it's I don't know. I was thinking hopefully best Man
and three, but man, it might be it might be
lug you get seven right now.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
I don't know, I don't know. Well, we'll find out
a lot a week from Friday. No, we we'll find
out a lot all week from Friday if we have
a good showing on national television on a Friday night.
But the opposite of that, Joey is is a Friday night,
it's the only game people can watch. So all eyeballs
on you. And if Miami embarrasses Louisville, then it could
be a long season. Thank you Joey for the call, brother,

(34:55):
all right, U good calls with that, very informative. So
gots football fans. And so I talked about the mediciner
that's going in into Jeffersonville, and there is a group
that's called the Who's Your Action? Hoo's Your Action and
they're watching and sort of informing people of how that's
going on. That's not going online until twenty twenty seven

(35:16):
or I'm sorry, next year, twenty twenty six, so it's
going on within a year, so that'll be powered up.
So there you go. Lots of opinions about all that,
