Speaker 1 (00:00):
Oh yeah, Dwight live on the road. Baby. This is

huge deck out front tap room right there. Come on
by and say hi. George Timmering says, we are going
to start serving pizza at ten am, so you can

(00:22):
get an early lunch. Come on by and say hi
to this. Plus we are also collecting we're also collecting
school supplies. Oh yes, for the children in the Jaytown area.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Match there's a right down the street if you want
to hit that.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
It's pronounced target. No, No, it's really it's not, yes,
it is. How are you you know? It hasn't been
the best morning. So you know, I got to wear
this boot, and so the very first thing I got
to do is I use crutches to go to shower.
I just start showering without the boot. Well, then I
put the boot on. I took a couple of steps.

(00:56):
I thought, oh my gosh, this hurts like hell. I
had the boot on the good ankle. M hmm. Well,
so thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
One surprised. No one's surprised that you're not sure what
you left.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
It's not my best morning.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Uh no, this is the portion of the show where
Dwighte complains about his life.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
No. Oh, and by the way, yesterday or two days ago,
when you said, oh, wouldn't apologize for the eleven old
f I was gonna talk about that. Loggy logged and
he chimed in yesterday via social media and he said,
I listened to eleven o five break. It was Tony
Venetti bitching and moaning across Oh no, no, no, no, no
no no no, what's different? What's different from any other?

Speaker 3 (01:35):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:36):
No, sorry, We'll just listen to Loggy. I guess represents
every single listener.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Loggy Loggy is the regular guy. He is the definitive.
Loggy Logs is the definitive man.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
As bad as the Wednesday eleven o five break was
yesterday's a break when we talked about the uh, the
passive whatever retirement, the the what do you call it for?

Speaker 1 (01:58):
Jobby micro micro retire.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
It's that break I listened to, and that may be
one of our best breaks we've done in weeks.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
It was great so counteracted, Okay, good counteract. Well, as
you know, we try to do one good break a year.
Yeah wait done, wait, lifted, We're done.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
In July, beer Fest is happening. We have tickets to
give away, folks. So beer Fest is basically all the
darn beers you're ever gonna see in one spot in Jaytown.
We have tickets, so we'll give away two tickets or
four tickets.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Let's give Let's give away a four pack right now.
Everybody comes in, the first person to come in, everybody
comes in and say, hey, George Timmering, you'll get a
four pack of tickets for beer.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Fest seventy five different types of beers, wines, DJ live music,
jaytownbeerfest dot Com. To buy tickets or if you can
get here, we'll give you some tickets. So the next
one to get here to wait Jay Town, you gotta
wait till ten am. You gotta wait till ten am am. Sorry, right,
ten oh five. Whoever's at the door at ten o'clock

(03:05):
will get.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
You four tickets. Okay, all right.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
A couple of things. Yesterday I saw my buddy Matt Jones.
He texted out or tweeted out that they're raising the
UK basketball and football tickets for the students. They're going
up seventy percent.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Well you know they should because college is so cheap.
I don't see how these universities get by. So it's
about time these universities and these sports programs start becoming profitable.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
These student tickets should be free. The amount of money
that UK is getting from their television contract is now
getting to fifty sixty million dollars and climbing. I'm not
sure if it was more than that. Maybe it's seventy
five now. I know the last time I checked, it
was fifty five million dollars. And it goes up every
single year, especially when they added Oklahoma Texas.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
You know. At some point.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yeah, I learned this years ago that they the fans,
are the last people they care about.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
What's wrong. I don't have internet. Okay, it's gonna google. Uh.
Average tuition cost of University Kentucky.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
It's about twenty five. It's about twenty five a year.
Uh and most some of that, most of that cost
is the living expenses.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
But here's the deal.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
These these students are mostly borrowing uh the money for
all this, so it's just going on to their loans.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
It's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
So what they're doing is going up from from two
hundred dollars to three hundred and forty five for football
and uh uh no basketball is two hundred to three
forty five and then football is ninety to It's ridiculous,
it is. Uh, it's it's another example of they don't care.
They don't care about the fans, that they don't care
about the students at their school. The students should be

(04:51):
able to go to free each go to these games
for free. Should be a lottery. Uh, and get your tickets.
But that though, raising seventy percent from the year before
for when you probably went up seventy percent in your
TV contracts in the last five years.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
It's ridiculous, I know, but it is. That's way too steep,
seventy percent. But in all fairness, usually after a program
wins the national championship like they did last year, that
oh wait a minute, that's not never mind they had
two wins. Yeah, I'm sorry you had. Anytime that a
team gets a couple of wins in a tournament, you

(05:26):
can expect him to go up.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
In your neighborhood, is that a walking neighborhood? Does your
whole neighborhood walk all the time?

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah? It's really annoying, Is it annoying? Yeah? I want
to go out and take out the trash and I
get hey, working harder, hardly working. So it's gotten to
the point now where I kind of peep around the
corner and I look left and I look right, there's
nobody on the side of walk and man, I spread well,
I used to. I don't know if you know this,
but I have a torn Achilles tendency. Oh yeah, i'll
tell you about a break. I don't want to alarm

(05:53):
the listeners. Yes, we'll talk about this privately, but it's
permitced me from running. But yeah, we have a walking neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
It seems like everybody's walking all the time.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Yeah, And uh, when I had Mick, before I had Lemmy,
I had Mick and I would take him on walks,
and believe it or not, I actually got to know
several neighbors and I would stop and I would talk.
It's quite pleasant, right Lemmy. On the other hand, you
can't to kill people. Can't take that.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
He's a former German slash Russian hit man and he's
just never really gotten.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
A walking neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
I do. And it's in walkability. Is cowords like your
your wife uses all time in politics?

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Is the neighborhood walkable? The ability the walkability of your neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
What I noticed the difference between men and women when
they're walking in my neighborhood, Trinity Hills, right, yeah, and
and again, everybody walks.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
It's crazy.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
It's you can barely drive down the street a lot
of times because they're walking. Women are always on the
phone when they so when they go walk, they call somebody.
And because you know, because their hands are doing this
with their hands and they're talking. Men are never on
the phone, never on the phone. They're just walking. They
want quiet time, they want want no one's talking to me.

(07:02):
I want quite time. I'm walking. But every woman in
my neighborhood, she's waving her hands and she's on the
phone talking to somebody.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Right, And I hate talking on the phones in general.
I mean I just just talking on the phone and
it drives me bs crazy. But I'm not walking in silence.
I have my beat headphones. Yes, and man, that music,
that's man, that metal was cracked. They are calling.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Matt Sanders is probably a caller. You you you when
you walk in your neighborhood, you're you're calling.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
We called him a lady. Well maybe oh hang on,
hang on, there we go, I got it. There we go.
Are you there? We go there, you go call Matt.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
Sanders, Hey, we're remote here. Baron knows in j town,
got beach in the universe. This is the second time
I've been in here. Did you see the the craft
brewery thing over there where you get a bracelet, walk
over to it, tap and then boom.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
That's dangerous for people like man, I'm telling.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Nobody, it's not just beer. They they've got, they got
they got to marguerite over there, they have why you own?
You just go up stand there goes well, you could
sample too, like you can go up and you say, like,
for example, here's what I'm I want my beer to
taste like beer. My wife she likes stuff like, oh,
I'll take a nutberry, wheat, peppernet, Radish beer and all this,

(08:14):
you know, all this kind of business. So she'll go
up when we're up here with my wife, will go
up and just actually pour just a little out of
the tap. Taste it. Now, that's not the one. Here's
one for me.

Speaker 5 (08:22):
And then you go, I'm I'm boozy when it comes
to beer.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Really, I like a summer ale.

Speaker 4 (08:27):
Yeah, before the craft, before the craft, like before the
craft beers took off the level about ten years ago.

Speaker 5 (08:32):
You used to have to go to Indiana.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yes, I used to go to keg Os Well you
technically probably were.

Speaker 5 (08:38):
Seriously, we'd go over to Indiana to get our beer
because it was all bourbon here.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
Yes, yes, I drink bourbon too.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
But now the crafty Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Listening to this conversation, I feel like you two are
in two claw foot bathtubs on the side of a hill,
holding hands, talking about your favorite craft beer and drinking
good beer.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
That that doesn't sound bad. Actually, so summer ale, you
should try it. We're gonna do that.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
No, we're not. No, we're not.

Speaker 5 (09:05):
They have mango card over there.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
That's a really good starter for you after cutting the
grass all day, drink a mango car.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Oh, dude, beer to taste like you want your beer
to take water. It does not taste like water.

Speaker 5 (09:18):
Really, really, God disappointed?

Speaker 1 (09:20):
And so you married the.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
First So you so you marry a beer?

Speaker 5 (09:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (09:26):
Absolutely, You don't screw around on your beer.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
No, I absolutely do not. I married a tequila number one.
Tequila's the only tequila I drink. Boy, he's consistent and
he's stubborn. More like it. Yeah, here, we are thirty
one years You know me, you know I get I
find something to eat, the same thing every day. I
go to the same vacation every year, drink the same Yeah, routine,
very consistent. That's so very boring. That's that's what I said.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
I said, if if if somebody hired a p I
to follow him, they'd be like, this guy is consistent.

Speaker 5 (09:55):
He'd be easy to follow.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Does nothing and he does nothing. He drinks, it's the
same thing. He goes to the same store at the
same time.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (10:04):
Pretty Now, if your routine gets messed up.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
For whatever it's, it's listen to this show.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
It's a bad scene, man, Like when Susan has an
event she wants me to go to and you know, oh,
it's a bad And then here here's what it gets
work worse at nighttime when we start going past bedtime.
Oh boy, I start looking at her. I'm like, hey,
Paris Hilton, that's nine o'clock. What we stand out on
this rager for.

Speaker 5 (10:30):
I know you're.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
Working, but have you not listened to the first break
in every show? It's what inconvenience Dwight. Today, there's a
segment right in the middle of the nine o'clock break.

Speaker 5 (10:39):
It's built into the show.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah, to get that sponsored.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
For example, this morning, you know, here comes this l
m PD guy trampling all over my feelings because I
don't like a mango peach beer. So good, Yeah, it's
so oh no, you're right. I remember all those John
Wayne cowboy movies. We walk in and go, well, Pilgrim,
give me a mango peach beer. Thank you, bad John Wayne.

(11:07):
And while you're at it, get a sissy beer for
my horse. Uh.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
John Wayne has been dead for thirty years.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
Please please can't please?

Speaker 4 (11:16):
After use the saloon back in the eighteen oh one evolved.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
There's two things that I love. Number one, making people
feel uncomfortable in situations. Number two outdated impersonations.

Speaker 5 (11:28):
And not number three, which is hops and beer. Like
hops and beer.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
All right, so let's talk about this.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
We got four minutes before we get to the breaks,
and then we're going to talk to you about what's
going on this weekender and everything else. There was Jefferson
County sheriff was fired after or fired one of his
deputies because.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
He was and this is a I wanted I wanted
to It's an interesting time, it's interesting.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
It's a look, if you have certain jobs, teacher, yeah,
a police officer. This is just a coach if it is. Uh,
he was engaged in things in his own time on
websites where they were fetish and kinky. Community boy, why
are you why are you cringing? Ok?

Speaker 1 (12:13):
Yes, because what I'm starting to originally is insert myself
in different news stories. Yes, and this morning I did
that on that when I'm like, oh my gosh, now
it's all out there. How uncomfortable it must be for
this guy.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Well, I don't think so. Really, he put his badge,
he had his badge number in his uniform.

Speaker 5 (12:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
I think that was the only problem here. I mean,
you know, cops need a personal life.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:36):
The problem is is that we can't let that bleed over, right,
And so LPD has policies erect how you represent yourself
on social media.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
There's moral clauses in a lot of contract.

Speaker 5 (12:44):
Yeah, it's no different. Yeah, sports that lead or whatever.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
And I think if he was doing all those things
and didn't have his uniform on, it may have been
a different story.

Speaker 5 (12:51):
I also don't want to speak about another agency and correct.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
Yeah, yes, but I think it's interesting to say those
these websites in these clubs and communities are a lot
larger than they used to be, right, and people are
more open.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
What fetish that, fetish groups and all that. This wasn't
the club was it was just it was fetlife dot com.
I thought it was just like a website or something.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
It bills itself as the most popular social network for
b D s M.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
I'm not sure what that is. Beat that's where you
like whips and chains think, is it?

Speaker 2 (13:23):
I don't know what that knows what BDS hang on?

Speaker 4 (13:29):
I'm pretty sure we get a lot of weird situations.
We go in a lot of weird houses and some
strange things.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
Ago.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
I'm pretty sure your personal time man, hang on, is
it b D s M b D s M Okay?
I think it's b d SM role playing and uh
bondage discipline, dominant domination stuff, submission and sado massacres.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Yeah, there you go. Some people are into stuff.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
You know what we should try that you be the
person likes to get beat up and I'll be the
beat up guy. Right.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
Well, that they have roles like that, people only want
to play the person that's taking it. I just don't
want to get whipped But as long as my point is,
I think he made a mistake by putting his uniform
and his badge on the thing, and probably anyway, they
probably would have fired him anyway. But if he's has another.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
Job, which article did you see? Because the one that
there is, Yeah, did to show the picture the picture,
it wasn't a cop, you know, I will say, it
was like it was like a weather suspenders and something else.

Speaker 4 (14:34):
I will say, did you actually watch Gilbert's story on
d r B.

Speaker 5 (14:39):
They did he dirty man?

Speaker 4 (14:41):
They put some music to the Yeah.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
This romantic.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
I saw the I saw the headline and I saw
the picture, and I thought, I can't I can't read
this in the morning.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
I say it because I think these groups are bigger
than people think. And as long as everyone in the
room is okay and signed documents and this is what
I want to do and no one's getting hurt, I
think it's fine. If you're into that, that's fine. I
who are we to judge? But there are jobs. I
believe coaches should be held to a higher standard, teacher

(15:22):
should be held a little bit higher standard. Police officers
should be held to a higher standard. But I think
we're getting to a fine line here with people that
are into that kind of stuff and no one's getting hurt.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
Are boss is producing And I have recently been in
hot water, so I am on self edit mode. Recently
yesterday gus, I don't want you to come in yesterday
was recently No. But my point is I would guess
that most of these sites are private because people don't

(15:55):
people don't want their fetish.

Speaker 5 (15:57):
Shamed.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah. Yeah, and this is and that's what I'm saying.
I'm just saying, like twenty years ago, this comes out
as a new story, it runs, and that's it. This
is gonna be memes like you know Louisville memes, and
it's gonna carry over. And I'm telling you social media brutal.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
But I will say this, these communities that everyone's in
and everybody wants to do it is a lot better
than porn. Porn industry is awful.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
Those girls are, uh.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
They're taking advantage of a lot of times they're just
barely eighteen and these people use them up, they get
them on drugs and then they and it's awful. It's
an awful industry. But a lot of people visit the
porn sites and I think twice about that. But they're
gonna judge all this, so that's all my point.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
I appreciate it. Thank you man. Okay, let's do the
joke of the day. Okay, and I'm calling it. Hang on,
let me go to the bullpen as I go for
my best right hander and his name is George Tammering.

arms around the Rush family and spend a little bit
of money.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
It's going to go to a great cost and twenty percent. Look,
that's their entire profit for the entirely.

Speaker 5 (22:10):
They don't make no money. They make no money, and
it's the busiest day for them in the year. George
will tell.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
You everyone's working their butts off and no one's making money.
And it's again, it is their cause. Now, you just
described a case to me that what she did towards
the end as she was fighting cancer. I you got
going over there, you show you know, you show me
the story and I will you explain that real quick,
and obviously we'll keep the names out of it.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
But yeah, So Michelle wanted to be known. She wanted
two things to be well known. One, she wanted her
family taken care of. Yeah, she knew she was gonna die,
so she wanted her family taken care of. And she
wanted the community to know what good work she did
for LLMPD. She was a detective for over ten years
and she worked in our Crimes against Children unit, which
rivals homicide for seeing the worst.

Speaker 5 (22:54):
Of the worst in our community.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
So she routinely investigated cases of child sex abuse. And
there was this one case that she had last September
while she had cancer in her stomach. Mind you of
an eight year old girl that we found who weighed
twenty seven pounds. She was malnourished when we found her.
She had been sexually assaulted, she had STDs, she had
bugs in her hair. And Michelle took that personally. So

(23:20):
twenty seven pounds at eight years old, the little girl
had special needs. We took her under our wing. Michelle
went to the hospital and visited this little girl every
day with cancer in her sing cancer. In between chemo treatments,
Michelle went to work and started working on this case,
and while sick, she was able to indict several family
members for all of these charges.

Speaker 5 (23:41):
Child sex, abused to neglect and everything.

Speaker 4 (23:44):
And so we can't talk about the juvenile and can't
release some of the images that I have just for protection.
But the child's now in state custody and the famili's
going to prison. And she did that while sick. Why
Because that's the type of person she is, that's the
type of that's what she wants to be known for.
She did that good work while said because it needed
to be done, and she cared enough to do it.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
And that's whose memory we're gonna honor in whose family
we're gonna help out next Tuesday. Any Barono's location and
by the way, that's Southern Indiana too. When they say
Barono's George, Rob Mooney, all the owners they meet Barono's Pizza,
twenty percent of every single thing, every single thing dining in,
carry out delivery is gonna go help out Detective Russia's family.

(24:27):
She was here when the children needed us or her,
and now we're gonna be here when her family needs us.
And I want to shift gears and talk to gear
to dear friend.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
I want to remind people what LLENPD does. Also, there's
true evil out there, like true evil, and that family
that did that to the little girl is just yeah.

Speaker 4 (24:45):
And I see you're getting emotional right now at the table.
And trust me, when Michelle was telling me about this
case back in September, I was just like you. I
was pissed off too, but I'll tell you what I
was thankful for. Detective Rush was on the case and
she put that sucker down like she did time time again.
So that show out on Tuesday at Baronos and let's
get some beards, get some pizza.

Speaker 5 (25:05):
Be patient with the Barons staff. They're gonna be slammed.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
They know it.

Speaker 5 (25:09):
They're gonna be fully staffed and fully slammed. Be patient.
It's gonna go to a good cause. Thanks for boasting it.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
Yeah, And if you if you have an office out there, listen,
or any kind of a place of employment, this is
the perfect time to feed your staff with the best
pizza on the universe and and do some good for
the neighborhood. Let's talk about doing good for the neighborhood.
It's a shift gears to one of my dearest precious friends. Rebecca,
greg non Riker, how are you doing Rebecca. She is

(25:38):
with the Louisville Metro Police Foundation. And first things first,
this is disgusting. Whenever there's an officer down or some
kind of officer in need, there's always con men out there,
and there's always fake sites and fake go fund me.
Oh yeah, here's my best recommendation. But correct me if
I'm wrong. You can never go wrong in a situation

(26:02):
like this by just going to the Louisville Metro Police Foundation.
That's how you can avoid getting ripped off. And by
the way, there's people that solicit cause with fake organizations,
and I always challenge him. I'll say, hey, you know what,
what's your website. I'll get back to you. They click
and hang up immediately, or they'll become combative and agitated
with me. Talk about the Louisville Metro Police Foundation because

(26:23):
it's amazing what you men and women do well.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
The Louisville Metro Police Foundation was created twenty years ago
and Michelle. We were able to step in and hunt
Michelle's family and we have partnered many times with Barone's
to assess families when they have gone through hard times.
But basically we exist to provide care for the officers
as they care for us, because, like you guys continue

(26:47):
to say, these people deserve our support to the they
go to bat for us and for our community, and
they deserve our support.

Speaker 5 (26:55):
So that is what we are dedicated to doing.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
Fantastic A couple of years ago to their foundation, it
was like a lunch or a breakfast and you tried
to taste. No, no, he got taste in the lower regions. Yes,
can we arrange that again? And I think, yeah, he.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
Did, he got tasted. Uh you know what. I was
the guy that they did everything too, Like I was
a white two guy. You all put me in the
thing where they hit me with. He volunteered for it.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
And they had a kid that was there and they
said you're gonna shoot and it was like the kids
shooting and the kid just aimed right.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
There and the little red light went and he hit there.
He hit him. It was fantastic.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
It was as he was railing on the floor, I said, Dwight,
you just give baby. Can we arrange that again? For
a gofundmet Loo.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
I want I want to talk about some of the
other things that Louisville Metro Police Foundation does because they
protect the men and women of l m p D. Uh,
they have a budget, l MPD, he does have a
city budget. It's true. But listen, there's a lot of
things out there that can't all be covered by the
budget that can leave an officer, an officer's life in risk,

(28:02):
a can nine in risk. And you all step up
and you look and you talk and you work with
LMPD and you say, what are the needs, where are
the biggest gaps, and where we can help talk about
that because you all do so much for the protection
and for the well being of our officers.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
And you're right, Dwight. When you look at the line
on them on the budget, it looks really big, but
what does it meant. Like ninety two to ninety six
percent goes just a personnel. That leaves training, equipment programs
that need to be funded. And that's what the Foundation
can step into do. Years ago, Kent Taylor stepped up
and bought Texas Roadhouse.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
Wow, what a guy and what an organization. I don't
mean to step on you, but Texas Roadhouse, God love you.
Go ahead.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
So they stepped up and provided bulletproof best for all
the officers. We've stepped up wow mounted patrol officers CA
nine officers. We've provided training, We've basically done anything we
can to let these guys and girls be at their
very best. Louisville has the best police department in the
entire world, and we're going to make sure they stay
that way. That they continue to be the best educated,

(29:02):
the best trained, and they have the best equipment so
that they can go out and do what they have
sacrificed their lives and their families to do. Take care
of us.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Is that you the one that told me, Matt that
bulletproof beests don't last.

Speaker 5 (29:14):
Yeah, they all have a shelf life of around five years.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
Are you kidding?

Speaker 4 (29:18):
Is that it's just because the armor breaks down over
time with the heat and sweat and everything. Last thing
you want is a cop walking around with an expired
bulletproof vest.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
I ask you a question, did you recently put your bullet
post in the dryer? Because it looks extra tight on you?

Speaker 4 (29:33):
Morning's such as.

Speaker 5 (29:38):
I'll tell you what the foundation the donations get.

Speaker 4 (29:42):
We have extra vests because of them, and we have
one on our chest and one in our car, you know,
in case there's like an active aggressor at Old National Bank.
We have equipment provided to us by the Police Foundation
to help us in those critical incidents.

Speaker 5 (29:53):
And we couldn't be more.

Speaker 4 (29:54):
Thankful to have a foundation, to have Becca and Tracy
before her to step up time and time again and
take care of the office. There's the Offspring Distress Fund
is the most important to me. It's the most important
to the Rush family. And Baronos knows that. Texas Roadhouse
knows that, Rebecca knows that, and the community knows it too.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (30:11):
I don't know if we've talked about it, but Kent
Rush is you guys might have talked about this earlier.

Speaker 5 (30:16):
He's serving as well.

Speaker 3 (30:17):
Yeah, he's a police officer.

Speaker 4 (30:18):
Yeah, her husband is a detective in the non fatal
shooting unit. He's got a couple kids to take care
of in a big mortgage, and he doesn't have you know,
the mother and the wife that he had a year,
you know, months ago.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
So we don't pay yourself. You don't get rich being
a cop. Uh, And when you get in trouble, it
can go quick.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
We're thankful that people like Baron George and Barons and
and we have a foundation and Becca is so passionate
about what she does and raising money. We just I
just want to say, from an LMPD perspective, I want
everybody to be real careful about how they donate. Because
Dwight mentioned the scams earlier. There's venmo's that say Louisville
Louisville Metro Police Foundation. But like the O and police

(30:55):
is a zero right, So it's a scam Venmo's site.
Best way to do it is go to is website.
It's safer for louis l l Yeah, LNPF dot org
and you.

Speaker 3 (31:05):
Can also call our office. It's five O two for
zero nine nine five six three and you can donate.
I can guide you if you're wanting to do venmon
it's the only way you can do it.

Speaker 5 (31:13):
I'll show you which ones are.

Speaker 4 (31:15):
Yeah, the foundation's not gonna cold call you asking, and
the police department doesn't do that either.

Speaker 5 (31:19):
So we want to throw that out there, especially if you're.

Speaker 4 (31:21):
Interested in and untying your purse strings and give them
some money for the Rush family.

Speaker 5 (31:26):
Uh, go to go to LMPF dot or Matt Centers.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
Wouldn't be safe to say that l m p D
itself never does a fundraiser. Would that be safe to say?

Speaker 5 (31:33):
Yeah, we technically can't ask for money.

Speaker 4 (31:36):
That's why or government organizations have nonprofits attached to That's
why we have a foundation.

Speaker 5 (31:41):
We need it.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
My point being is one more time and I hate
to be redundant, but I'm not letting this go because
it pisses me off every time there's officer down, officer
in need, uh, or just random phone calls throughout the
year saying I'm with the blah blah blah police foundations
for the as for their website, That's why I always do.
But I tell you the truth. The best practice is

(32:02):
just go to Louisville Metro Police Foundation and that's l
M p d F dot or m P l M
P l n PF dot org.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
Dwhite started his relationship with the with the police by
being chased on foot and the p R p uh
in Shively. That wasn't there like a one Adam? What
was that TV show? One twelve? Didn't an E M
S Group helps somebody give a baby?

Speaker 1 (32:28):
Yeah, I know the story you're thinking about that they
pulled me over and they thought I was pregnant, said
just a fat guy.

Speaker 4 (32:37):
That's your first responders do stuff like this every day,
and we could do a better job of telling those stories.
Just like the story I shared with Michelle earlier. Nobody
knows that story.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
You know.

Speaker 4 (32:49):
We want to protect the identity of the juvenile involved,
but we also want to announce the indictments and talk
about Michelle's good work. I hate that we're talking about
it after she passed, right, but your police department does
amazing work all the time.

Speaker 5 (33:02):
If you only watch the news, you're going to think
we're terrible.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
We're not.

Speaker 5 (33:05):
Oh yeah, and the community knows that.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
And we know the community knows that.

Speaker 5 (33:08):
How do I know that?

Speaker 4 (33:08):
Because they give a bunch of money to the foundation
and Rebecca takes good care of us.

Speaker 3 (33:12):
Thanks Mat, It's an honor to take care of you.
I went and saw Michelle shortly before she passed, and
like Matt mentioned, she said, I need two things. I
need my family taken care of and I want to
be remembered for what I have done. And by coming
out to Baronos on Tuesday, you fulfill both those wishes.
You honor her, you keep her memory alive, and you
show her family that they are not forgotten and they're

(33:34):
taking care.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
Of the detective. Michelle Rush was here for so many
children and so many families of the city of Louisville
through her career. Now it's time for the families of
Louisville to step up and be here for her and
her family. Honor her memory next Tuesday and do some
good for the neighbor to day this coming Tuesday. Every
Baronos location that's southern Indiana, folks dine in carry out
