the next generation weight loss drugs apparently are better than
the ones that are out there right now, and they're
a whole pile of people using them.
Speaker 5 (00:47):
This sounds amazing, but Eli Lilly's next generational BC shot
exceeded expectations tom as it helped patients lose almost a
quarter of their body weight and more than sixty two
percent reduction in knee pain. According to Lily, some patients
lost so much weight they decided to drop out of
the trial. Patients on the highest dose of the drug,
which is called retro truetide, lost more than twenty three
percent of their body weight in sixty eight weeks. The
(01:10):
obesity drug market is expected to hit one hundred billion
dollars by two thousand and thirty.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
So appressive, not a surprise. Meanwhile, open ai in some
legal trouble.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
Yeah, they and its investor Microsoft sued over a Connecticut
murder suicide. It's the latest case to blame the chat
GBT chatbot for dangerous psychological manipulation of users. The case
of Aldly, fifty six year old man. He had been
conversing for months with the chatbot over his fear that
he was under surveillance and people are trying to kill him,
and the man ended up killing himself and his eighty
(01:42):
three year old mother, whose estate filed the lawsuit against
open ai in Microsoft.
Speaker 1 (01:46):

quarter of one percent from Bloomberg. Dan Schwartzman on News
Radio seven hundred WL W.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
It is eight eleven on your Thursday morning, and welcome
to the Morning Show. You're on seven hundred WLW you know,
every single year, and I don't know Evan Andrews from
Montgomery in how long you guys have been doing this
part of his whole since he favorite thing come together.
First off, good morning, good morning, uh nineteen minute talking
(02:25):
to you for the last ten minutes, so I should
have said it on the air.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
That's all right, good morning an always great seeing you man,
good being here. So nineteen ninety four was the first
year I shipped ribs and barbecue sauce. And you can
imagine back then the internet was in its infancy. If
he had a website, there were no PDFs, there was
no online credit card authorizations. It was on the phone,
but it was. It was a lot of fun. It
(02:50):
was an inspiration from a friend of mine in Cleveland
Christmas in ninety three. He called up and said, can
you send me ten slabs of ribs? Absolutely, we had
a company called Peak Kg's. They were the ones that
handled it for us. They would pick up the ribs
and from that point I had no idea what would
happen to him. About three months go by, he calls
up and said, man, the ribs were great, but I
(03:11):
thought we were best friends. I said, what do you
mean he goes It was five hundred and fifty dollars,
I said, for what he goes for the ten slabs
of ribs. I got the receipt. They charged him like
three hundred and ten dollars for packaging and freight and
everything else to go to Cleveland. I think I would
have driven it to him for about fifty bucks. But
that was the inspiration.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
That was it.
Speaker 6 (03:31):
The light bulb went off and I said, I think
we can do this in Cincinnati's an interesting town. We've
got cooler manufacturers. We have a dry ice company just
up the road in Vandelia, just outside of Dayton. Everything
you need is right here corrugated. So this town's pretty
vertically integrated. It's not like you have to go to
Chicago to get coolers. So talk to the folks. Put
(03:54):
it all together. In April of ninety four, we were
in business ship and ribs and barbecue sauce.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
I'm kind of cure, and I mean, I would think
that this goes on year round naturally, because there are
people year round that would love to have Montgomery ins, ribs, sauce,
whatever the case may be. But how much of your
business now is in that part of the business, I'd say.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
It's almost twenty five percent.
Speaker 6 (04:20):
An it's about twenty five percent of the business year round.
It's an amazing, amazing business. It's pretty it's pretty great
to be honest with you. You know, we do the work.
We have greaters. We've got Skyline, We've got Lo Rosa's,
Pine Club Steaks, Jeff Ruby Steaks, all the Cincinnati locals,
the Cincinnati Favorites. That's why it's called Sincy Favorites. And
(04:42):
you know, you put them all together, and we're one
of the only companies that can put it all together.
You want a little bit of this, you want a
little bit of that, not a problem, We do it.
How did you get the other companies involved? Pretty simple?
They kind of saw like, how did you do this?
You know, I called Mike and Mark Lerosa, you call Buddy,
you call the folks the Skyline. I brought them all
(05:05):
in for lunch at the end and I said, Okay,
here's my idea, and they all basically said, have at it.
As long as you do all the work, we're with you.
We're with you, just like Willie says, I'm with you.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Win or win, so you know, it worked out great.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
We've been doing it, like I said, over thirty years
and it's wonderful. It's a great relationship with all of
our friends.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
You know.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
I look at some of the things that you can go.
You talked about four Slabs and Montgomery and Ribs, a
pint of Greater's Black Raspberry Chip, Greater's Chocolate Chip, Greater's
Mint chocolate Chip. You can get a twenty ounce bottle
of Montgomery and barbecue sauce. There are other vendors that
are a part of this entire thing. You talked about
some of them Skyline, Jeff Ruby's Pine Club, Glear's Get Up,
(05:52):
all that kind of thing. And look, you know, another
view was starting to say, you know, interesting town Cincinnati
in many ways, and one of the ways is we
love our food here.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
We do. We do. And so if somebody's out of town,
you know, they're missing it. This is like the perfect
holiday get for somebody. It is, it really is. And
people they really miss home.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Yeah, and there are so many displaced Cincinnatians all around
the United States. Plus we have a lot of visitors
that come in to Cincinnati from Pocter and Gamble to
visit to work, whatever it may be, and they come
to the end, they go to graters. They get glears
getta from somewhere. I don't know how they get it,
but they love it and they have to have it.
Another one is the old Virginia Bakery Schneckin.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
The Buskin family owns the recipe to that. They still
make Virginia Bakery Schneckin. We distribute it. I don't know
how many thousands of loads of Schnekin will send out
this month, but it's a lot and it's great. They
go all over the country. We have people in Florida.
They'll get twenty four Schnekin and keep them in their freezer.
(07:00):
They have enough to get through till maybe springtime. They
love it, you know.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
But before I ask you, where people can place their
order and send this off for the holidays and still
get there in time for the holidays, right, you know,
there's got to be And I don't know if you
can even put it into words, but I ask you
about the way people feel about their hometown. Since he favorites,
but specifically to Montgomery in Man, the impact that you
(07:27):
guys have made on so many people, whether they still
live here and come in the restaurants, or they move
out of town and they can't get enough of it.
I mean, it really does say a lot about the
product and the service you guys have done for all
these many decades.
Speaker 6 (07:41):
Well, it's not just Montgomery and it's not just the family.
You look at the other businesses. You to look at
the Greater family, you look at the LaRosa family, you
look at the folks with Skyline. Everybody kind of stays
in their lane and they do what they do well.
They do what they do best. They have a high
integrity in ingreed and how they do business. And I
(08:02):
think customers can always count on to know that Montgomery
in is never going to change their recipe.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
The quality is always going to be the best.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (08:11):
You know, Greater's ice cream is always going to be
made a certain way. All all these companies they're high
integrity and they can they can count on it, and
that's what we deliver. You can go to Sincy Favorites,
that's all one word since A C I N C
Y favorites dot com. Now can you mix and match
these things depending on what it is you want? Sure,
you just just put in there. You can go into
(08:33):
the basket. You can have two slabs of ribs you
can add. I gotta tell you, if you want to
get the best, get our baked beans, get our mac
and cheese. Add it all in there. You can get
all of this in there. You want to get a
bonbondery opera cream cake thrown in. You want to get
a pumpkin pie or an apple pie from Servats, or
a carrot cake. I've had yogurt, for God's sakes, and
(08:53):
you're talking about all these goods. It's all on there.
Everything is there. You can mix and match. We pack
everything to order. None of this is pre packed. None
of it's in the freezer. You go to some of
these other national companies, they've been putting their steak boxes
in the freezer for six months, yep. And they just
have one or two different items they can pick and pull.
We do all of ours to order. Everything is pulled
(09:13):
out to order. In fact, I got a head down
to Queen City Sausage. After this, we got to get
more hot links. There's at there's a run on hot
links this holiday season. So that's what we do well.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
The total value package is one hundred and ninety nine
ninety nine and again, as Evan Andrews just mentioned, you
can pick and mix and match however you want to
do it. If you want ice cream, you want pizza,
you want Montgomery and Ribs, you want their black beans,
their macaroni into whatever it is, their sauces. You can
can build how you want it to be sent to
someone you love. And what a great gift idea for
(09:49):
the holidays. I mean, it just checks so many boxes
and it's great stuff. I can't thank you for your
time this morning, my friend. Oh, it's great to be here.
Thanks for having us. Good to see it, buddy, see

sending it to buy Christmas. They can eat it on

just told me he drove down from right around you know,
the Harper's Point area that seventy one looks so bad
coming south that he took Montgomery Road and it still
took him over a half hour to get here to Kenwood.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
That's not a bad move. He made the work.
Speaker 7 (10:28):
He might have made the right choice, but it's nothing
compared to what we're going to see in twenty four hours.
Speaker 1 (10:34):

for a second, because when you know, when a lot
of people I think they hear new, upscale kind of bar,
that really doesn't mean anything more. Then it's a nice place.
It's not like spill beer on your shoes kind of joint.
But at the same time, you don't have to get
all dulled up to go to that thing on Friday
night in the regular opening, right.
Speaker 8 (20:11):

A winter whether advisory begins starting at seven, So get
to where you got to go. Hopefully that means getting

little tube. We're expecting anywhere from two to five inches.
And if you didn't hear Cameron Harden earlier, for those
(25:29):
of you in the northern part of the Tri State,
say you know north Butler, Warren up towards Dayton, you're
probably only looking at two inches of snow. For those
south like us right here in Kenwood, we're looking at
five inches of snow. Snow will be out of here
by tomorrow morning, but the after effects will be very
(25:52):
much with us. So whether it's school, if the kids
have school work, if you got to go give yourself
some time. HI have thirty five tomorrow, windshill colder than that,
so the snow will not melt Friday night down to
twenty eight and then Saturday it's going to be our
coldest stretch so far of this late fall early winter

Arctic air rolls. In Saturday, We're looking at another two
inches of snow anywhere from one to two and are

incredibly cold weather. So please be careful, take care of

the next generation weight loss drugs apparently are better than
the ones that are out there right now, and they're
a whole pile of people using them.
Speaker 5 (00:47):
This sounds amazing, but Eli Lilly's next generational BC shot
exceeded expectations tom as it helped patients lose almost a
quarter of their body weight and more than sixty two
percent reduction in knee pain. According to Lily, some patients
lost so much weight they decided to drop out of
the trial. Patients on the highest dose of the drug,
which is called retro truetide, lost more than twenty three
percent of their body weight in sixty eight weeks. The
(01:10):
obesity drug market is expected to hit one hundred billion
dollars by two thousand and thirty.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
So appressive, not a surprise. Meanwhile, open ai in some
legal trouble.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
Yeah, they and its investor Microsoft sued over a Connecticut
murder suicide. It's the latest case to blame the chat
GBT chatbot for dangerous psychological manipulation of users. The case
of Aldly, fifty six year old man. He had been
conversing for months with the chatbot over his fear that
he was under surveillance and people are trying to kill him,
and the man ended up killing himself and his eighty
(01:42):
three year old mother, whose estate filed the lawsuit against
open ai in Microsoft.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
All right, in, Dan Schwartzman, are futures this morning? All right?
Speaker 5 (01:50):
They're mixed now, So that's some good news that now
currently is up at ten to one percent, NASZAK is
down four ten to one percent, SMP is down a
quarter of one percent from Bloomberg. Dan Schwartzman on News
Radio seven hundred WL W.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
It is eight eleven on your Thursday morning, and welcome
to the Morning Show. You're on seven hundred WLW you know,
every single year, and I don't know Evan Andrews from
Montgomery in how long you guys have been doing this
part of his whole since he favorite thing come together.
First off, good morning, good morning, uh nineteen minute talking
(02:25):
to you for the last ten minutes, so I should
have said it on the air.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
That's all right, good morning an always great seeing you man,
good being here. So nineteen ninety four was the first
year I shipped ribs and barbecue sauce. And you can
imagine back then the internet was in its infancy. If
he had a website, there were no PDFs, there was
no online credit card authorizations. It was on the phone,
but it was. It was a lot of fun. It
(02:50):
was an inspiration from a friend of mine in Cleveland
Christmas in ninety three. He called up and said, can
you send me ten slabs of ribs? Absolutely, we had
a company called Peak Kg's. They were the ones that
handled it for us. They would pick up the ribs
and from that point I had no idea what would
happen to him. About three months go by, he calls
up and said, man, the ribs were great, but I
(03:11):
thought we were best friends. I said, what do you
mean he goes It was five hundred and fifty dollars,
I said, for what he goes for the ten slabs
of ribs. I got the receipt. They charged him like
three hundred and ten dollars for packaging and freight and
everything else to go to Cleveland. I think I would
have driven it to him for about fifty bucks. But
that was the inspiration.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
That was it.
Speaker 6 (03:31):
The light bulb went off and I said, I think
we can do this in Cincinnati's an interesting town. We've
got cooler manufacturers. We have a dry ice company just
up the road in Vandelia, just outside of Dayton. Everything
you need is right here corrugated. So this town's pretty
vertically integrated. It's not like you have to go to
Chicago to get coolers. So talk to the folks. Put
(03:54):
it all together. In April of ninety four, we were
in business ship and ribs and barbecue sauce.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
I'm kind of cure, and I mean, I would think
that this goes on year round naturally, because there are
people year round that would love to have Montgomery ins, ribs, sauce,
whatever the case may be. But how much of your
business now is in that part of the business, I'd say.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
It's almost twenty five percent.
Speaker 6 (04:20):
An it's about twenty five percent of the business year round.
It's an amazing, amazing business. It's pretty it's pretty great
to be honest with you. You know, we do the work.
We have greaters. We've got Skyline, We've got Lo Rosa's,
Pine Club Steaks, Jeff Ruby Steaks, all the Cincinnati locals,
the Cincinnati Favorites. That's why it's called Sincy Favorites. And
(04:42):
you know, you put them all together, and we're one
of the only companies that can put it all together.
You want a little bit of this, you want a
little bit of that, not a problem, We do it.
How did you get the other companies involved? Pretty simple?
They kind of saw like, how did you do this?
You know, I called Mike and Mark Lerosa, you call Buddy,
you call the folks the Skyline. I brought them all
(05:05):
in for lunch at the end and I said, Okay,
here's my idea, and they all basically said, have at it.
As long as you do all the work, we're with you.
We're with you, just like Willie says, I'm with you.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Win or win, so you know, it worked out great.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
We've been doing it, like I said, over thirty years
and it's wonderful. It's a great relationship with all of
our friends.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
You know.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
I look at some of the things that you can go.
You talked about four Slabs and Montgomery and Ribs, a
pint of Greater's Black Raspberry Chip, Greater's Chocolate Chip, Greater's
Mint chocolate Chip. You can get a twenty ounce bottle
of Montgomery and barbecue sauce. There are other vendors that
are a part of this entire thing. You talked about
some of them Skyline, Jeff Ruby's Pine Club, Glear's Get Up,
(05:52):
all that kind of thing. And look, you know, another
view was starting to say, you know, interesting town Cincinnati
in many ways, and one of the ways is we
love our food here.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
We do. We do. And so if somebody's out of town,
you know, they're missing it. This is like the perfect
holiday get for somebody. It is, it really is. And
people they really miss home.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Yeah, and there are so many displaced Cincinnatians all around
the United States. Plus we have a lot of visitors
that come in to Cincinnati from Pocter and Gamble to
visit to work, whatever it may be, and they come
to the end, they go to graters. They get glears
getta from somewhere. I don't know how they get it,
but they love it and they have to have it.
Another one is the old Virginia Bakery Schneckin.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
The Buskin family owns the recipe to that. They still
make Virginia Bakery Schneckin. We distribute it. I don't know
how many thousands of loads of Schnekin will send out
this month, but it's a lot and it's great. They
go all over the country. We have people in Florida.
They'll get twenty four Schnekin and keep them in their freezer.
(07:00):
They have enough to get through till maybe springtime. They
love it, you know.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
But before I ask you, where people can place their
order and send this off for the holidays and still
get there in time for the holidays, right, you know,
there's got to be And I don't know if you
can even put it into words, but I ask you
about the way people feel about their hometown. Since he favorites,
but specifically to Montgomery in Man, the impact that you
(07:27):
guys have made on so many people, whether they still
live here and come in the restaurants, or they move
out of town and they can't get enough of it.
I mean, it really does say a lot about the
product and the service you guys have done for all
these many decades.
Speaker 6 (07:41):
Well, it's not just Montgomery and it's not just the family.
You look at the other businesses. You to look at
the Greater family, you look at the LaRosa family, you
look at the folks with Skyline. Everybody kind of stays
in their lane and they do what they do well.
They do what they do best. They have a high
integrity in ingreed and how they do business. And I
(08:02):
think customers can always count on to know that Montgomery
in is never going to change their recipe.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
The quality is always going to be the best.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (08:11):
You know, Greater's ice cream is always going to be
made a certain way. All all these companies they're high
integrity and they can they can count on it, and
that's what we deliver. You can go to Sincy Favorites,
that's all one word since A C I N C
Y favorites dot com. Now can you mix and match
these things depending on what it is you want? Sure,
you just just put in there. You can go into
(08:33):
the basket. You can have two slabs of ribs you
can add. I gotta tell you, if you want to
get the best, get our baked beans, get our mac
and cheese. Add it all in there. You can get
all of this in there. You want to get a
bonbondery opera cream cake thrown in. You want to get
a pumpkin pie or an apple pie from Servats, or
a carrot cake. I've had yogurt, for God's sakes, and
(08:53):
you're talking about all these goods. It's all on there.
Everything is there. You can mix and match. We pack
everything to order. None of this is pre packed. None
of it's in the freezer. You go to some of
these other national companies, they've been putting their steak boxes
in the freezer for six months, yep. And they just
have one or two different items they can pick and pull.
We do all of ours to order. Everything is pulled
(09:13):
out to order. In fact, I got a head down
to Queen City Sausage. After this, we got to get
more hot links. There's at there's a run on hot
links this holiday season. So that's what we do well.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
The total value package is one hundred and ninety nine
ninety nine and again, as Evan Andrews just mentioned, you
can pick and mix and match however you want to
do it. If you want ice cream, you want pizza,
you want Montgomery and Ribs, you want their black beans,
their macaroni into whatever it is, their sauces. You can
can build how you want it to be sent to
someone you love. And what a great gift idea for
(09:49):
the holidays. I mean, it just checks so many boxes
and it's great stuff. I can't thank you for your
time this morning, my friend. Oh, it's great to be here.
Thanks for having us. Good to see it, buddy, see
you sincey favorites dot Com jump on right now because
you just heard Evan. I mean, this stuff is going fast,
and you gotta get it to whoever it is you're
sending it to buy Christmas. They can eat it on

just told me he drove down from right around you know,
the Harper's Point area that seventy one looks so bad
coming south that he took Montgomery Road and it still
took him over a half hour to get here to Kenwood.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
That's not a bad move. He made the work.
Speaker 7 (10:28):
He might have made the right choice, but it's nothing
compared to what we're going to see in twenty four hours.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
There's no doubt about that.

Speaker 4 (19:50):
I want to circle back to this flight club thing
for a second, because when you know, when a lot
of people I think they hear new, upscale kind of bar,
that really doesn't mean anything more. Then it's a nice place.
It's not like spill beer on your shoes kind of joint.
But at the same time, you don't have to get
all dulled up to go to that thing on Friday
night in the regular opening, right.
Speaker 8 (20:11):
Not at all, Not at all.
Speaker 9 (20:12):
No, it just means that it's just you know, I
think it's like a higher end dart situation, maybe more
electronic is what I think is something you know, that's
what I have in my mind. And it has good
bar food and drinks. So it's just like a you know,
an up a notch from the normal dart.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Right right, I got you.
Speaker 4 (20:31):

A winter whether advisory begins starting at seven, So get
to where you got to go. Hopefully that means getting
home and just honker down, build a fire, watch a
little tube. We're expecting anywhere from two to five inches.
And if you didn't hear Cameron Harden earlier, for those
(25:29):
of you in the northern part of the Tri State,
say you know north Butler, Warren up towards Dayton, you're
probably only looking at two inches of snow. For those
south like us right here in Kenwood, we're looking at
five inches of snow. Snow will be out of here
by tomorrow morning, but the after effects will be very
(25:52):
much with us. So whether it's school, if the kids
have school work, if you got to go give yourself
some time. HI have thirty five tomorrow, windshill colder than that,
so the snow will not melt Friday night down to
twenty eight and then Saturday it's going to be our
coldest stretch so far of this late fall early winter
(26:14):
Arctic air rolls. In Saturday, We're looking at another two
inches of snow anywhere from one to two and are
high on Sunday may not even hit twenty degrees. In fact,
overnight Saturday night and overnight Sunday night we will be
in these single digits. And that doesn't even include the windshill.
(26:37):
So this is a weather front that is bringing just
incredibly cold weather. So please be careful, take care of
your pets. We urge you if you can go to
an animal shelter and give a dog or cat a chance,
