Speaker 1 (00:07):
Bill cunning in the Great America. Welcome this Thursday afternoon.
In the tri State, there's raining Thursday Afternion should stop
raining about three four five o'clock, according to Jennifer ketch Mark.
Then Tomorrow is gonna be fine, and Halloween's gonna be great,
and Saturday looks gonna be chilly but sunny. But until
then we have big doings in River City. Next Tuesday's
an opportunity for the citizens of the City of Cincinnati
(00:29):
to say, we can't take it anymore, we have to
do better, we don't have to live like this. And
the man who's gonna lead that banner will be Corey Bowman,
the man who would be mayor of the City of
Cincinnati later on. We have entrees out to after have
pureval and the discussions are being held at the highest level,
headquartered by Tony Bender and others will try to get
(00:50):
him on the radio, but not or to give an interview,
but nonetheless, Corey Bowman, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show.
And first of all, do you sense the lad few
days something has metastasized and the heart and soul of
Cincinnatians that we can't take it anymore. We have to
try something different. Was yesterday's session with the family of Thiji.
(01:11):
Part of that. Give me a full report on you
since and the bowels of Cincinnati like a Pryce shal
Chili in Avondale in Hyde Park is something different.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yeah, I believe that that's what's happening. Is that ultimately,
first and foremost, thank you so much for having me on, Bill,
But you know what's happened in our city over the
last four years. Really everything is culminated to now you're
getting it sense from people from both sides of the
aisle that they're fed up of what's going on, and
we have to see change in leadership. And this isn't
about a one party rule after November fourth. This is
(01:44):
about differences of opinion, differences of qualifications to come together
at city Hall and work for the betterment of the city,
not for the betterment of their own political aspirations or
for using Cincinnati as a stepping stool to get to
higher office.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
As far as Chief of Police Teresa Thieji. Later on,
we've scheduled today Captain Russ Neville to come on, but
talk about his sister. The Neville families held the office
in the police department for some seven or eighty years.
She began at the bottom of the list, she became
as a lowly patrol. Went over thirty six years, she's
worked her way to the top, and then she had
(02:21):
the flora taken away from her. As she was leaving
town to go to a chief of Police conference in Denver.
Things metastasized here, what would you have done differently than
the mayor when it comes to Chief of Police Terry Thiji?
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Well, I think you have to look at what's been
done over the last four years. You know, whenever Chief
Fiji's in office, and whenever she's in the position that
she's in, with her experience and her qualifications, do you
think that she has the knowledge to know how to
fight crime in our city to be able to manage
the police department. For what we felt from all this
time is that this is trickled down in competence from
(02:56):
city Hall, from the Mayor's office, in the city manager's office,
and how she was treated in the course of all
of this just shows that this is nothing more than
a political stunt. Because we're seeing now the documents of
the city manager's emails or text being sent to the
police chief. That's not how you treat the chief of
police when it comes to the Cincinnati Police Department. If
(03:17):
you allow these officers to do their job, they have
the experience, they have the knowledge, and they have the
passion to be able to keep our streets safe. And
those hands have been tied from the Mayor's office and
from the city manager's office over the course this whole time.
Everybody wants us to call for the resignation of certain individuals.
I tell people, the only person I'm calling to be
(03:37):
fired is at that purvol on November fourth.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Do you believe that the mayor is manipulating as the
great puppeteer the behavior of his city manager share Along,
or is share Along doing this without the Mayor's involvement.
I cannot believe that it is possible that the two
officers there in city Hall are next to each other,
that somehow have tab pirival, has no idea what Sharyl
(04:03):
Long is doing. It's a personnel matter. I didn't do it.
It was her decision share Along and not mine. Do
you buy that?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
No? I don't. I believe that both offices know exactly
what they're doing. I believe the Mayor's office knows exactly
what the city manager's office is doing, and vice versa.
I believe that this is a coordinate effort. We've even
seen it from the mayor's TikTok and the mayor's social
media accounts that you know, he's the front man and
then she's the band director, and they all work together.
(04:31):
And so this is what happens in our city, is
that if you have these people working together not for
the best interests of the city, but for the interests
of their own personal agendas, you're going to see a
city suffer. And that's why it needs to change.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
On November fourth, you know, I hear the sirens in
the background this Thursday afternoon. You had said, about a
week or two ago, shots were fired that hits your
coffee shop or hit your church. It's a regular event
to hear sirens. There's thousands of shots fired every day,
and the in the East and the West End and
the city of Cincinnati. It's terrible. Well, what was the
(05:05):
result of the shots, the bullets hitting your hitting your church.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Well it was reported as property damage, you know, But
for us this is like, well, you said, this is
a regular thing over the last three over the last summer,
we've had three instances of shooting past our building. And
so this is being done really from just a culmination
of departments not working together. And it's all, like I said,
trickle down incompetence from the Mayor's office down that they're
(05:32):
just falling directives from the Visionary of Cincinnati right now,
and that needs a change. And it's not just in
where I'm in in the West End. It's not just
in certain areas where you would expect crime. This is
all throughout the city. We're getting reports in Hyde Park
of cars getting broken into a robberies happening where you
wouldn't expect it. Even right now hearing the sirens going
(05:54):
past you know, budh and know right here in the
in Price Hill, Chile. This is something that's a regular
occurrence here in our city and we've got to change
it from the top down.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
You know, Corey Bowman, you quickly said something property damage.
I'm told by many in the police that when shots
are fired and hitting buildings, hitting plate glass windows, hitting cars,
it is as marked up, not as attempt at flowing,
as assault or attempt at murder. It's marked up by
the police department as property damage as a minor misdemeanor.
(06:26):
Isn't that ridiculous, Because that's why the crime stats are
so different. The police are told directly and indirectly not
to mark up vicious attempts to kill someone as anything
other than property damage.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
You know what I'm saying, Well, you got to see
it as well that the officers are trying to do
the best they can, you know, because they get into
the job because they want to protect and serve. They
want to be able to do their jobs properly. And
what's happening right now is a culmination of bad leadership
from the top when it comes to city Hall. But
also we're seeing a major societal ships. You know, we're
(06:59):
seeing crime on the rise in a lot of these areas,
and we've got to have proper de escalation tactics, and
we've got to bridge the gap between the officers and
the communities they serve. You know, I grew up with
you know, movies to where after a high school football game,
everybody would meet in a diner after the game and
you'd see the share local share for the officers, all
(07:20):
in the involved in the community. And we need to
bring that back. We need to bring back the their
programs and other areas of the police department to show
that these officers want to protect and serve their communities.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
You know, Corey Bowman I said, something is happening. Either
the polling indicates have to have pure of all and
many Democrats are going to lose, or so do you
have any pulling? Is your campaign doing pulling in the field,
or is to have peer of all to your knowledge,
doing polling that indicates he's in trouble.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Well, I think based on a lot of the responses
you're seeing that we're making an impact. We're making event
in this. You know, for a campaign that started out
in February that everybody said that they're no shot, they're
reacting in a way where it doesn't seem like there's
no shot of us winning, and so that's encouraging. We've
looked at the early voting. You know, unfortunately, with the
smaller campaign like this, excuse me, with a smaller race
(08:14):
like this, a lot of times polls aren't going to
be paid for. But what you can look at as
the early voting and the early voting results are all
trending upwards for us and trending down for the other side.
And so I think people are starting to sense that.
I will say this that we have to see everybody
show up on November fourth that camp. We have to
get people out to vote. And this is including where
(08:36):
I'm at right now on the west side. The west
side has to show up, the east Side has to
show up, Hyde Park, Oakley, every area has to show
up to be able to say, hey, enough is enough,
We're ready for different leadership in our city.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
You know, Corey Bowman, my producer Tony Bender tells me
that people are going to vote vote necessarily for you,
They're going to vote against AFT have Puura ball. Can
you understand that, I.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Can, because you're seeing that. You know, for me, I
know that a lot of people are saying, hey, he
doesn't have a track record because he's not in politics.
But one thing we do have is a track record
of who's currently in office, and who's currently in office
right now. Over the last four years, we've seen our
city rise in crime, we've seen decayed in this infrastructure,
and we've seen the budget being funneled into the friends
(09:23):
and partners of after pur Bal and that needs to stop.
And so what I'm telling people is that, yeah, in
a lot of ways. Your vote is taking a chance
on me. But we've had a front row seat to
these policies. We're surrounded by the right people, the right knowledge,
and we're going to know how to be able to
take this city back when it comes to crime, when
it comes to infrastructure, and when it comes to the
(09:45):
budget being spent properly.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
You know, I had a recent conversation with the Governor,
Mike DeWine about collateral matter, but I also pointed out,
how's that collaborative agreement working between the State of Ohio
and the City of Cincinnati. And I can't pair for
disclose exactly what he said, but he said, I'm looking
forward to a little more cooperation. And I read that
to mean not much is going on, but the governor
(10:09):
is looking forward to more cooperation. He's a politician in Columbus.
Is there a union between the State of Ohio with
liquor control and also the highway patrol and also the
eyes in the skydecent? Is there a lot of coordination
between the State of Ohio and the City of Cincinnati
as we speak, or as the governor said, I'm looking
(10:30):
forward to more cooperation, Which is it?
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Well, I'll tell you this. We've spoken with the people
in the Governor's office when it comes to public safety,
the director of the Public Safety in the Governor's office,
because we're saying, hey, what's really going on? Because he's
excepting two days a month in November, there's only four
days scheduled to coordinate with osp And this is what
we get told is that when they go into cities
like Cleveland or Columbus or Akron, and they're able to
(10:57):
have let's say even one night a very successful results
of seventeen to eighteen, sometimes even thirty arrests and they're
getting criminals off the streets. This is what they say
is that when they come to Cincinnati, they've got to
jump through so many hoops. Yes, a lot of times
the officers don't feel like they can do their job.
And then finally they say that they only have like
(11:19):
maybe two or three arrests because of the coordination, you know,
and that needs to stop right now. Whenever we're accepting
help from the Governor's office, people shouldn't have to go
through hoops to be able to make sure. I mean,
there's accreditation and excellence levels at the Ohio state level
that all osp is there. That includes the transparency and
(11:39):
the accountability that a lot of times is involved in
the collaborative agreement. So we need to accept the help
and not make everybody that comes in jump through hoops
to be able to work with Cincinnati.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
If you win the Mayor's office next Tuesday, will you
keep Teresa Thiji as the chief of Police?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Well, this is what I'm telling is that how Chief
cg Has been treated has been just incredibly incompetent from
the top down. This is a woman that has the experience,
and I don't believe that the results that we're seeing
on the street is a direct result of her experience
or her leadership. I believe that in the same way
that many of our officers hands are tied, I believe
(12:17):
that even the chief officer, the chief's hands were tied
in a lot of different areas. And so we haven't
even begun to see the fullness of her leadership capabilities.
And so when you see the signs to say I
stand with Chief Figi, that is I mean our campaign
in my mindset is I stand with Chief Figi as well,
because this is a battle from the top down. This
(12:39):
is what we're seeing from the mayor's office and the
city manager's office. That's where the change needs to happen.
And then from that point on, we're going to be
able to make the proper decisions to make sure our
streets are clean and safe.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Was that a yes or a no? On keeping Fiji?
A yes or a no?
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Like I said, whenever we get in, you're having the
litigation happening right now, you're having all these detailed I
stand with the Chiefdigi right now when it comes to
what's been going on right now with her litigation. These
are conversations we'd have to have when we get an
office to see what she would like to implement on
our city streets if she wants to come back, and
(13:16):
if that's the case, we'll address it from there.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
What about share along the city manager? Would you fire her?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Well, here's the thing, it's not about just firing. You've
got to work with the city council. This isn't a dictatorship.
A lot of people are attending these no kings protests,
but when it comes to our city charter and when
it comes to our city government, you're not a dictator.
So whoever the new council is that comes in we're
going to work together to make sure that we put
the right people in place for the city manager's office
(13:46):
and for all the other committees and all the other
boards that have to be appointed.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Do you support the collaborative.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
I support the transparency and accountability of the collaborative agreement.
Believe that when it comes to our officers and runs
from city Hall, the city Hall has not allowed the
officers to do their job.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
And the mayor says the same thing he said after
Thiji I used the term fired. It's a slow roll
of firing. If she serves at the pleasure of the
city manager, she can be fired for a good reason,
a bad reason, or no reason according to the charter,
and so she doesn't have like a long term, guaranteed
Bonus Leyton contract. She serves as the pleasure of the
city manager. But to say okay, we're going in a
(14:29):
different direction, We're have to let you go. That's the
nature of the business. Like being the manager of the Reds,
you got to go. On the other hand, when he
set up the system of Frost Brown Todd that we're
going to spend forty or fifty thousand dollars to give
me a reason why I fired Fiji. That makes no sense.
The city manager has the power and instead of standing
(14:51):
up and saying I don't like the direction of the city,
we have to let you go, they want to smear
Thiji with this. I legal investigation to come up with
information that if the mayor says, we'll justify what I did,
that's the definition of a scapegoat. Well, once again, Corey Bowman,
this is maybe the last time we're together before the election.
Where would the victory party beat Tuesday night? Tony Bender
wants to know.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
We're finalized details right now, but I believe that we'll
be having at our church in the West det Well.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Pray to God that the voters of Cincinnati know what's
going on. You don't have to live like this, and
the polling must indicate bad things for a to have
peer Ofal and the other Democrats. One other disgusting thing
happened at the first meeting after Thiji was put on
quote administrative leave. Now one Democrat on city council voiced
any opposition to what the mayor and the city manager
(15:40):
has done. They sat there blind, dumb and befuddled fools
without answering. Without you're taking the mayor to task whatsoever,
oldest city manager. No diversity of thought, no diversity of opinion,
and that's got to change. But Corey Bowman, good luck
to you. Upon your shoulders rest the hopes and dreams
of spoken millions of people that want to see the
(16:02):
City of Cincinnati take a new course. And it's up
to you to bring this one home. Corey Bowman, thank
you very much.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Bill, Thank you so much to you and your listeners
for having it. Everybody get out to vote November fourth.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
God bless America. Let's continue with more if the line
becomes available five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand.
My comments are next plus later on. We've scheduled the
brother of Teresa Thiji to be here in person. Captain
Russ Neville will be here to talk about what happened
to city council yesterday when he took the mayor to
task and nothing happened. The mayor had a straight face,
(16:34):
He looked like a zombie and didn't respond at all.
We have a zombie mayor who's looking to escape. Go Thiji.
Bill Cunningham, News Radio seven hundred WLW at the Music,
Dave Keaton hit the Music. Big things going on in
River City fifty to fifty chants of Joe Flacco playing
on Sunday, which means he isn't so it'll be up
(16:56):
to Jake the Snake Browning. Hopefully when I'm with you
on Monday, you and I together can celebrate an FC
victory over Columbus and of Bengals Bengals victory over the Bears,
and then the Bengals get a week off. We'll see
what happens down the road. Until then, the big news,
of course, is the election. I want to thank Corey
Bowman coming on I think probably for the last time
before the election. You know, we get the government we deserve,
(17:19):
and at times that concerns me greatly. When I listened
this morning to Sloaney and Sherry Poland at the Board
of Elections, it appears that all the issues that have
transpired the last several months have not moved yet. The
electorate in the City of Cincinnati to vote for change,
vote for an improvement, vote for something different, whether it's
(17:39):
the echo Chamber also known as city Council, or the
foolish efeckless mayor mayor. We have and have to have puerival.
It's not a good situation. Where the laughing stock of
the nation, and we all hope for improvement. We want
things to be better. Of course, we don't want things
to be worse. But the history of human activity is
(18:00):
that we will suffer in silence until we reach a
breaking point. Then enough is enough. We must in a
sense rebel at the voting box. And if the early returns,
which are the absentee ballots in person and by mail,
are no different than twenty twenty one, we might be
in trouble. On the other hand, you have what five
(18:20):
days to change the outlook of the city and take
a new and different direction. After one o'clock today, we've
scheduled Captain Russ Neville to be here in the studio,
which is quite rare. In the studio talk about his sister,
his sister being Teresa Fiji, and what's happening with that situation.
And I'm sure he's going to vociferously defend his sister
(18:44):
as I would, but nonetheless I want to know the
facts of what things are like in the department five
years ago, ten years ago. And Captain and Neville has
been at it now for about I think thirty some
years himself. He's been retired for a bit, but he's
concerned about the direction of the city exhibited by the
police department, which used to be considered the best urban
police department in America. In fact, the chief of police
(19:06):
was on the cover of Life magazine, believe it or not.
That guy's name is Stanley Schrotel. So we had situations
in the city that were completely under control. But when
the cancer of liberalism and progressivism of Marxism has infected
itself into the city, or racial politics mean everything, a
confidence means nothing, We're in a difficult position. I wouldn't
(19:28):
note also that headline in the Washington Times police slam
democratically controlled cities for the billions spent on illegal aliens
as opposed to law enforcement. The National Police Association is
speaking out about the problem. Hundreds of billions over the
(19:49):
past five years have been spent in blue cities shoveling
money to illegal aliens. The National Police Association says that
every major city control by the Democratic Party has fallen
on tough times. When it comes to paying and incentivizing police,
be goes the money's gone. A police group says that
law enforcement and democratically run cities like Cincinnati and States
(20:11):
across the country are tired of seeing local politicians have
to have pureival supporting illegal immigrants rather than attempting to
address a key issue to dealing with, such as understaffed
and underfront of police. These cities are spending billions of
dollars supporting aliens who shouldn't be here in the first place,
and it's costing the taxpayers in these cities for no
(20:31):
acceptable reason, a massive lawlessness that here before had not existed.
They should be repatriot and sent back home. And this
feeds into the SNAP debate. Man, I raised my hand
in the back of the room. I got a question
I shared with you yesterday the percentage of legal aliens
receiving SNAP benefits supplemental nutritional assistance programs loaded on their
(20:53):
EBT cards. And it was done because at the southern border,
when you came here illegally, ten to fifteen million illegals
showed up, you were given a menu of government benefits
at your expense for them to use them being illegal aliens,
something the range of fifty two cents of every dollar
spent on food stamps are given to the homes of
(21:16):
individuals who should not be here. They are illegal or
they're part of the one million who've overstayed their visas
continued to live in this country illegally, or they claim
special refugee status, with the next hearing in their case
to be the year twenty thirty two. So as a consequence,
they get Section eight vouchers. Many apply and receive Social
(21:38):
Security income disability. Many also are getting food stamps. About
half of those on food stamps should not be on
food stamps. They are illegal. They should be gone, and
that would cause rench to come down. It would also
mean less government, less bureaucracy. The States administer the programs,
but the FEDS pay for it, and the cost is
(21:59):
skyrocket in the past five years. The cost of food
stamps in twenty nineteen twenty twenty was fifty two billion
dollars a year, which seems like a lot. The cost
today well north of one hundred and ten billion. Do
you think hunger in America has gotten worse the past
four or five years, and doubly no. What happened is
(22:21):
that the menu of government benefits went to those who
are here illegally without reference to citizenship, and they're handing
out the money like drunken sailors on shore. Leave, which
isn't fair to the drunken sailors. And some states are
much more liberal when it comes to this than others.
And now the FEDS want to crack down on illegal
use of food stamps, which are sold to the open
(22:42):
market for fifty cents on the dollar. The largest problem
with those receiving food stamps is obesity. It's not hunger
because the government administers it. When the government administers the program,
the cost or skyrocket, waste fraud in the abuse will proliferate,
and those in true need will get less. I want
(23:04):
every American who needs housing, or who needs food stamps,
or need food nutrition to get it. If you're disabled,
if you're poor, if you're elderly, if you're a kid,
and you don't know how the world works, you can't
order yourself in such a way as to pay your
own bills. And the cost is fifty billion dollars and
a seven trillion dollar budget. That's less than one percent,
(23:27):
by the way, for those who did not go to
Deer Park High School. So be it, but not at
the expense of feeding the world, which is exactly what
we've been doing. And the Trump administration needs some time
to get out of the system. Those who who are here,
shall I say illegally, they need some help to get
that done. So on one hand, in the back of
(23:49):
the room, I will say, look, are you sure, are
you positive that there's not a lot of waste, fraud
and abuse. The answer is no. We're told ten to
twenty percent is waste, fraud and abuse. And I have
the listing here percentage of US households by ethnicity receiving
SNAP benefits. Afghan is forty five percent, Somali is forty
(24:11):
two percent, Iraqi is thirty four percent, Puerto Rican is
thirty seven percent, Cuban is twenty seven percent, Arab is
twenty five percent, Cambodian is twenty four percent. The list
goes down fifteen or twenty more categories. The great bulk
are here illegally, and there's no reference when you sign
up for food stamps, whether here legally or illegally, to
(24:33):
simply say I have a need. Under Joe Biden, let
everybody in the program. And once you start a government
program at someone else's expense, it is damn near impossible
to pick that plan up by the roots, to dislatch
it from the soil. It is damn near impossible to
give government benefits and then a year or two later
stop them goes. There's a constituency build up around those
(24:55):
benefits that will fight like warrior poets to keep it.
Do I want hungary maryor Americans to be fed? Absolutely?
Do I want hungry Somali's out of the country. Absolutely?
So thank god we have a president that is doing both.
And I'm told by a certain US Senator that there's
a big pow wows and dinner tonight, which is Thursday
(25:20):
night and Friday before November, the one which by the
way is Saturday. Just try a deal on at least
the food stamps at a minimum. Because there's a concern
exhibited by the Columbus Dispatch headline downtown Dollar General store
boards up citing looting fears. I it's not benefits end,
(25:41):
and I've seen online thousands of those getting snapped benefits
say they're going to loot grocery stores. How about this one?
The Dollar General store in downtown Columbus has boarded up
its windows. This says is up yesterday, as the store
manager says corporate parent has told Dollar General stores in
America to prepare for looting. It it's not benefits ceased
(26:03):
due to the government shutdown. Benefits are scheduled to end
November first for roughly one hundred and eighty thousand Franklin
County residents, including I think in Hamlet County. I think
I saw Denise Tree. I'll say there's about one hundred
thousand Hamlety County residents getting food stamps, so they're going
to riot. According to this news story, the store is
(26:24):
located at one sixty six South High Street, remains open
despite the plywood boards covering its windows. I'm looking at
the picture. The boards went up over the weekend. The
store manager, his name is Bear Foltz, said he and
his employees received notice from Dollar General over the weekend
that the company would be sent to the store boards
to cover up the entryways, and he has to sign
(26:46):
on the boards to say we're still open. We're putting
the boards up to discourage looting starting on Saturday. What
on October seventh. No other storefronts in the Columbus area
appear to be boarded up. Dispatch could not locate any
safety alert for downtown businesses, et cetera. But when the
snap benefits end, that's when the looting begins. So that's
(27:13):
a sign of the times right there. About half of
those getting food stamps are not eligible to receive them,
but they get them nonetheless unbelievable, right, So let's continue.
And I also would note that the President's made great
success the last few days in South Korea, meeting with Jijhaoping,
(27:37):
the Chinese leader, and others through curtail illegal drugs finded
by the Chinese communists coming into the country, and to
buy billions of tons of soybeans so the farmers can
have a better lifespan. So we'll see what happens at
the end of the day. When it comes to Tuesday,
I would hope more than thirteen percent of registered voters
(28:00):
will pick the next mayor. Let me explain. According to
Sherry Polly at the Board of Elections, it appears the
turnout is going to be about twenty five percent of
those who actually turn out to vote. As high as
twenty five percent might be less. And about half of
adults living in Cincinnati aren't registered to vote anyway. So
if half are not registered and half are, that means
(28:23):
the twenty five thousand means that thirteen thousand voters in
a city of three hundred thousand, which is what about
four percent, will determine who the mayor is and whose
city council is. So your vote is disproportionately counted. So
few people vote. So if everything that's occurred the past
several months, not picking up the snow, the snow powing
(28:46):
was terrible, all the potholes you talk, all the criminal activity,
the incompetence of the mayor and city council being an
echo chamber, not questioning the mayor of the city manager
at all. If all of that's not calling you enough
motivation to go out and do something to try to
change your community, maybe you get the government you deserve.
(29:07):
And right now I don't know what the polling is.
I asked Corey Bowman, what is the polling, and they
it's a rather shall we say, a small budget campaign.
They're not doing polling, but the fact the mayor's office
is reaching out to me to come on, which I've
said absolutely, arrange the time or set it up. I want,
I want the mayor on. I've invited lemon Kearney on.
(29:30):
She won't come, Scottie Johnson won't come. Then they won't come.
And I believe what Charlie Kirk said, when the talking stops,
that's when violence begins. I want communication with those I
disagree with, so or see what occurs. But if things
maintain the status quo, we're in trouble. And the lynchpin
(29:52):
of this is not even necessarily the police. It is
the judges who make the final decision whether a person
is locked up, given an ankle monitor, etc. How many
times have you heard Jack Crumley and Brian Combs and
Matt Rees say, well, so and so has committed another
offense he had an ankle monitor on where he was
given no bond and got out. How many times has
(30:14):
that happened? Very very often. So pay attention to who
you're voting for for judge and isn't political. There's some
Democratic judges in Hamley County in the past that have
been more harsh on criminals than Republican judges. It's the
nature of the beast. We can't have judges they have
an agenda on the bench that talk about restorative justice
(30:37):
or reparations deal with a person based upon what they do,
not the color of their skin. What a novel suggestion.
Well let's continue with more. And I'm told by a
certain US Senator that a deal should be struck today
or tomorrow to provide snap benefits that should waylay the
concerns and fears of dollar general that's boarding up fearing
(30:59):
lootings to on Saturday of those who get snap benefits,
and they're going to steal what the government will often
give them. And that's pretty sad too, isn't it. I
think it's awfully said. So coming up after one o'clock,
we've scheduled in the studio Captain Russ Neville, who's the
brother of Teresa Thiji. I use the term fired. She's
(31:20):
on the administrative leave, which means she's going to get fired.
And the mayor wanted this big time great law firm,
Frost Brown Todd to do the investigation that he should
have done in the first place. And they have to
find something on Thiji to justify the mayor's firing of
her several days ago. So he wants this law firm
to collect forty thousand dollars. And don't get me wrong,
(31:42):
I'd love it when lawyers make money. That's a good thing.
But he wants the law firm to provide the justification
for what he's already done. The odds at Fiji coming
back I think are basically non existent. So let's continue
with more than after two o'clock today we have the
Bill Gates statements of Microsoft, who James, there is no
climate crisis anymore. It's not a climate apocalypse going to
(32:04):
take place. No, we need to have cheap energy. Now
I'm thinking, where have you been the past thirty years
making billions of dollars off the climate scare which is
a hoax? And the liberal groups have been funded by
government activities in this area with professorships in college and university, grants, etc.
And they kept all their liberal pals employed chasing the
(32:27):
climate change monster. And now they're giving up twelve fifty
five Home of Your Bengals, News Radio seven hundred WW
find Billy cunning in the Great American. Of course, the
issue of the firing Charlie Say administrative discharge in a
(32:50):
sense of chief of police stigy is on the front
burner and it's one of the big election issues coming up
on Tuesday. In the studio with me, now, is Captain
russ Neville retired? Is that correct? How many years you've
been thirty four thirty four years? Did you enjoy it.
I did. I enjoyed it, respect it, appreciate it. But
more importantly, you're the brother. Let's get it out there
of Terry Thiji. She is your sister, correct, yes, sir.
(33:12):
A little bit of the history of Chief Thiji A
mother of four? Is that correct? Yes, sir. She went
through the whole police department from bottom to top with
four kids, and I guess there are adults by this point.
And then how many grandchildren does she have? She has
nine grandchildren. So the city manager and Mary wants to
fire a mother and a grandmother. Correct, yes, tell me
about Tell me about your feelings about what happened to
(33:35):
a Chief Thigi and why it was so unfair.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Well, I think there's a combination of reasons, but the
way it came about is ridiculously unfair, bordering on inhumane.
There were opportunities for communication that could have ended in
a different fashion. Basically, what they did is they forced
her to fight, and we're not going to walk away
from a fight. She dedicated thirty five years to the city.
(33:59):
She was a good team player, a leader. She is
not and I emphasized not a dei higher. She earned
everything she got through her thirty five years. She was
mentored by some of the best and brightest minds of
this organization over the last thirty five years. Tom Striker,
Jim Whalen, Vince Demassi. Not bad, not bad at that.
(34:19):
So if anybody wants to throw Dei out related to Terry,
they are way off base.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
She earned it, earned it the hard way, the hard way,
being a mother and a grandmother while being in a
cop You mentioned this the other day. Not easy. It's
hard for a man, a father, much less a mother
and a grandmother. Been put in sixty seventy hours a
week on behalf of the people with Cincinnati. And she
did it without a without reservation, without anger, without frustration.
(34:45):
She did her job.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
She did it with pride and commitment and dedication and care.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
I couldn't begin to tell you the amount Terry cares regarding.
Speaker 3 (34:52):
The communities, and I mean all fifty two, not one
or two like the mayor, All fifty two communities, all
Demigo graphics.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
It doesn't matter to Terry.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
What's right is right, and what service needs to be
provided shall be provided.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Why was she I'll use the term fired because that's
where it's coming. I can't imagine after this review bought
and paid for by the mayor, the law firm that
he hired is going to come back and say, oh,
you know, Mayor, you're wrong. You know what's going to
come in a couple of months is smearing of thief
chief Thiji. Well, why do you think it happened.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
I think it happened because she had a desire to
provide services to the community that would reduce diminish impact
violent crime. And I think she had thoughts, plans, and
ideas on that. And I will leave it at that
for now until things work themselves out going forward. And
I believe the mayor had a different opinion.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
As far as the administrative put on the administrative leave
with pay of your sister. The mayor said it there
or two after this happened, we're going to start enforcing
the law. We're going to have misdemeanors being in forced.
As you know, as a cop, you come from a
family of cops going back about one hundred years, that
when you enforce the broken window theory of law enforcement,
when someone is taking drugs in public, when someone is
(36:10):
sleeping on a public sidewalk, when someone is shooting through
a window, and he's classified as property damage. You know
something's wrong. Do you think the mayor got the message
that somehow you cops are going to have to start
enforcing the law, because it hasn't happened so far.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I couldn't begin to tell you what message the mayor got,
but I will offer to you those services are provided.
Lesser crimes are focused on and were focused on under Terry.
But the reality of it is, Bill, if there's a
revolving door at the justice center, or if there's early
release for no justified reason, placing people back into the
(36:45):
communities where they just victimized people without accountability one through
fifteen times, it's irrelevant. There needs to be something done
to control the early release and the offenders being placed
back out into the streets without any accountability. That's not
on the coppers. It's not on the cops. It's on
(37:06):
the judges exactly. And I am here to.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Say the cops work hard.
Speaker 3 (37:11):
I'm not criticizing for one second the officers of Cincinnati
or any agency in Hamilcanny and beyond. I'm here to
tell you that the administrative suspension of Terry was in humane, unjust,
and let's think about the fact that it's asked backwards.
You place your own administrative suspension, then you decide you're
going to hire a law firm, and your conducting investigation
(37:32):
determined why you placed your own administrative suspension. I'll leave
the rest of that to her lawyer, mister m and Terry.
But everybody with a lick of sense understands what this
is about, what's driving it, who's driving it, And that's
where I think the conversation needs to go as we
go forward.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
Today. I think Channel twelve had this report about the emails,
the text messages back and forth. A precipitating factor, according
to share a Long, was that your chief Thiji joined
the Hamlety County Police Chiefs Group without the permission of
the city manager or the mayor. Is that was that
(38:10):
a made up Was that precipitating? It wasn't unusual for
the chief of police of Cincinnati, which is about what
about forty percent of the county to join a group
of other police chiefs. Is that a bad act? Was
that wrong for Thigi to do?
Speaker 3 (38:25):
I don't see why it was wrong or how it
could be wrong. I mean, it's part of your responsibilities
as the head of an organization. Is to communicate with
heads of other organizations and put together strategies and plans.
I just have to leave it at that until anything
goes forward involving the case that may be pending.
Speaker 1 (38:42):
Well, what is does Chief Thiji want her job back? Yes?
Speaker 3 (38:47):
I can't speak for her Bill either. I talked to
her every day. You must talk to her every day.
Speaker 1 (38:52):
Talk to her. Does she want her job back?
Speaker 3 (38:54):
I'm going to refrain from answering that question based on
mister IM's recommendations.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
Let me say this. I would say, oh, because how
do you work in that environment when you can implement
the policies and procedures you want to implement. Because the
city manager and the mayor, and I guess Counsel Scottie
Johnson others are saying, don't do that. In other words,
put in speed bumps, don't pull people over for traffic offenses.
I had on the corner about a month ago, and
she was going to a big event, I think Fiddler
(39:19):
on the Roof at the Music Hall, and she and
a retired federal judge felt threatened walking across Washington Park
when they had left the play early because they knew
they had to get back to the car before dark.
Those are the things that I think that the police
should administer and take care of. That the police directly
or indirectly receive orders or indications from the city manager
(39:41):
or the mayor not to enforce certain statutes. I think
that was the case. That's why the mayor said we're
going to start enforcing the criminal law. Was there a
sense under your sister's leadership that she was told directly
or indirectly by expression or implication not to enforce certain
criminal statutes?
Speaker 3 (39:57):
Not that I'm aware of, And I talked to her
every day, and I think it is someth that needs
to be kept between her and her attorney and for
any future purposes. So I really do refrain from discussing it, Bill,
because it is right for her her going forward with
any potential when w was she speak when her attorneys
when the case is settled potentially.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
So going back to my point, does she want her
job back? You can't say yes to that.
Speaker 3 (40:22):
I'm not going to answer that. I will tell you this,
you wouldn't want it. I wouldn't want it. My brother Mike,
who's in the studio with us, wouldn't want it. But
I'm not going to speak for Terry.
Speaker 1 (40:32):
Why wouldn't you and your brother, Mike went Why wouldn't
someone who's come up through the ranks from the bottom
of the top not want the job today?
Speaker 3 (40:41):
Well today, meaning only under these circumstances, wanting the job
prior to this happening to her, I would have even
wanted it at that point. But under these circumstances, why
would anybody want to go back and work and report
to two individuals that have treated them so inhumanely. One
reason somebody may want to do it because they care
about the community, and they care about the members of
(41:03):
the organization, and they appreciate the support they're getting from
each of those. So you have to balance those elements
and reporting to two people who retreated so inhumanely, who
clearly don't want you there. And let's emphasize it is
two people, Bill, it's not one.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
What was it in humane about her discharge? It was
done in.
Speaker 3 (41:23):
A shockingly surprising way.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
She didn't see it coming, didn't see it coming.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
It was done after a text notification to come back
from a police conference where she was there to represent
the City of Cincinnati and the police department in an
honorable a leadership fashion. And it was done with a
minimal to no communication.
Speaker 1 (41:49):
And I'll leave it at that. From sheer Long's perspective,
why do it? Then? It's like embarrassing. According to media accounts,
someone was listening to me at one seventeen PM. Somebody
told me her days in the single digits. Yeah, I
heard you, And she goes to I was told that.
And so she goes to Denver for this national deal.
And I'm thinking this isn't good. But somebody approved her
(42:10):
trip to Denver. She didn't do this. Did city manager
approve her trip to Denver? I couldn't tell you the
process on who approved it. Bill she had authorization to
go to Denver and represent the city of Cincinnati, the
police department, in the constituents of Cincinnati, and represent them
in high fashion, in high order, honorably. And she was
summoned back shock. Would you say she was shocked at
(42:33):
that maneuver by Cheryl Long. I would say she was
caught off guard that she needed to come back so quickly,
because right now, as I understand it, she's an I
WILL employee. That means she can be fired for a
good reason, a bad reason, or no reason. It can't
be an I legal reason. But if the city manager
would say to uh, Teresa Theichi, you know things aren't
(42:53):
going very well. I have to let you go. Let's
talk about how we do this. That's different than what happened. Correct,
That is definitely different than what happened. So she gave
an interview somewhere that she said she sent a text
or something Cheryl Long that said, I got thirty five
years in October twentieth as my anniversary. I'm not going
to be here forever. I want to have some indication
as to the future. Do you recall seeing that text.
(43:16):
I'm aware that text is out there. And as far
as her being out there, was she planning to retire anyway?
Because when you say, you know, you've been at a
job for a long time and somebody you get an
indication things are going the wrong direction. When she said
I know I'm not going to be there forever, was
that an indication from her that she knew something was coming.
Speaker 3 (43:36):
I honestly cannot answer that. I don't know what her
thought was when she sent that. I haven't discussed that
text with her.
Speaker 1 (43:42):
Do you know how she was fired put on an administrative leave?
You know how I truly don't.
Speaker 3 (43:47):
I don't recall if it's something she was told or
if it was something that was notified by her attorney.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
I truly don't recall how it came to her. Was
she shocked about that, she was caught off guard, off
guard and it came out of the blue. Yes, how
is she doing today this afternoon? Is she actually it's
interesting you ask. Over a thousand people have asked me
that question in the last two weeks. She's doing well
as well as can be. She's spending she's doing as
(44:13):
well as can be. She's terry, she's a leader, she's confident,
she's independent, She's capable to overcome anything.
Speaker 3 (44:21):
But with that said, it's a kick to the gut.
It's internally straining.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Her.
Speaker 3 (44:31):
Her feelings are hurt. Her reputation has been tarnished. But
with that said, Bill, she I gid you not. She
is approached everywhere we go, or she goes in one
hundred and fifty mile radius of Cincinnati, with people saying
they support her, they believe in or they know what's
really going on. They know it's politics. She was at
(44:53):
the Bengals game the other day and there were people
yelling from two stamps two levels up down to her
saying we support you, believe in you, keep fighting the fight.
But with that said, that's all great, right, that's all
awesome for her to hear. But at the same time,
there's the internal hit that comes with that of what
she's going through that would even cause people to need
(45:13):
to yell that out to her and show that support
to her. But she's doing as well as anybody could
do under this situation.
Speaker 1 (45:19):
She's going sixty seventy miles an hour. All of a
sudden there's a crash and at this point she I
guess four kids, how many grandkids? Nine? Nine, maybe some
on the way. She's a mother and a grandmother, and
now she's going to care for her family, and she's
always cared for her family. Now she's always cared physically present,
and she wasn't physically present I would think for a
(45:41):
long part of her life because she was a cop.
And going forward, who knows what's going to happen. I
think the important takeaway is number One, she was shocked
about what happened. Number Two, your indications are she won't
take the job back as it's presently constituted.
Speaker 3 (45:57):
Because I'm not don't mix it up. I'm not indicating
one or the other. I'm telling you I don't know
what Terry's answer that definitively is or would be. And
even if I did, and I wouldn't share it, I
would let her do it and her attorney do it
at due time. What I'm telling you is you wouldn't
take it back. I wouldn't take it back, and Mike
wouldn't take it back. But Terry's independent, Terry's confident, and
that's for Terry to decide if that ever comes to fruition.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
Is there some information she has about the mayor or
the city manager that would require her to sign an
NDA in order to get the settlement?
Speaker 3 (46:30):
To my knowledge, none of those discussions have taken place,
and if they've had, Terry's kept them between herself and
her attorney.
Speaker 1 (46:35):
So there may be something that you can make public
to embarrass the city behavior. No, I'm just responding to
the NDA.
Speaker 3 (46:41):
I don't know the embarrassment side of it, Bill, I
can't answer it. I think there are things that took
place in her career during her administration that would benefit
her through litigation.
Speaker 1 (46:55):
But I don't know what those are at this time.
Speaker 3 (46:57):
And we'll just have to leave it that way until
mister m decides what to do with what information he compiles,
or what he chooses to do going forward.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Davis with Chris Finny Law Firm. A week before all
these events transpired, she was in your review, respected by
Cheryl long respected. I can recall we had numerous news
conferences on the air. It was af Tab, it was
Cheryl and and it was Long and also Thiji. The
(47:23):
three of them stood up there. Questions were asked of
the mayor, for example, are you satisfied with the chief
of police? Every time it was yes, yes, Her evaluations
were exceptional or above exceptional, whatever the heck that is.
And that this was up to the moment she was
put on administrative leave. Was there a triggering event that
went from exceptional to your gone? Because normally, in normal life,
(47:47):
if you have a bad employee, you give them bad reviews.
You know you got to improve this, got to do that.
I've seen the reviews. They're off the charts. Teresa Thiji
was at the top. All of a sudden, she's gone.
What happened in those two three days that calls that
to transpire When the mayor says she's better in sliced bread.
Now she's going to be sliced. What happened? It's the
question for the mayor to answer.
Speaker 3 (48:09):
It's a question. It's a question for the mayriored answer.
It's a question for the manager.
Speaker 1 (48:14):
She's not talking. You're correct, and we don't know what
it is that caused this to happen. Bill, yesterday, you're
looking at the mayor. You were sitting at that table.
You've been in public service in Cincinnati for more than
thirty years, a captain well known, the family and Neville
family is well known. You look at the mayor and
(48:34):
you said, we need a strong leader or a Week leader.
What did you say to the mayor? And he did
not respond to you? Man to man, eyeball to eyeball,
What did you say to f tab Basically?
Speaker 3 (48:44):
I basically shared that the city is under week leadership,
whether it be him or the manager. I said that
I think people who are going out to vote need
to make a decision on what's most important to them.
Is it going forward, is it improvement or is it
maintaining a loyalty or com to whatever thought process you
have that have placed him in there. And I offered
to people not to vote for the coward.
Speaker 1 (49:06):
So you're calling after a pure of all, a coward.
I called him a coward. What about Cheryl Long.
Speaker 3 (49:13):
Cheryl Long wasn't there. She's out there, she skipped, she
wasn't there. She did arrive. I think as we were
leaving chambers, I did not see her go in. I
was told she came in after we had left chambers.
So that's where we are.
Speaker 1 (49:29):
She did a great job in North College Hill. Now
she's doing it for the people of Cincinnati. Yeah, And.
Speaker 3 (49:36):
It's the decision making of those that are in charge now,
Bill that has us where we are. That mayor has
no he generates no benefit to the city of Cincinnati.
He does not, truly, truly, in his gut, in his heart,
care about the people of Cincinnati, the constituents. He's wasting money,
he's wasting resources. He treated a thirty five year veteran
(49:59):
of this department like the trash to be thrown out.
And I think the voters please please understand that, literally,
if things hadn't happened in the downtown business district, I
don't know that this happens. The American answer to that
litigation may answer that I don't know, but I will
(50:20):
offer you have crime plateaus, you have an EBB and
flow of crime throughout the other fifty one neighborhoods. Mayor's
never shown this type of response and benefit or support
of those neighborhoods. And I think I think it's I'm
not think. I'm certain this is a political decision. It's
a scapegoat situation. I think he's weak. I think he's
(50:41):
a coward, and I think he's bad for this city.
And I wish people would come out, get out of
their comfort zone, vote for new leadership.
Speaker 1 (50:52):
And I really believe this.
Speaker 3 (50:53):
If you want to go down to council and vote
for four or five of the current council members, do it.
Speaker 1 (51:00):
Do it. Get some new council representative.
Speaker 3 (51:02):
And there's Smitherman, Keating Kerney, I think, still Scottie Johnson
actually on there now, some mixture, some new and some
old blood and let's see what can be done. But
regarding the mayor, do not do not cast a vote
for the marriage just because you're down there voting for
the council representatives. Vote for new leadership. People know what
(51:27):
that means. Vote for new leadership in that mayor seat.
If you want to see economic improvement, if you want
to see first responder management improvement, if you want to
see humane treatment. I highly recommend people come out and
those that haven't voted in ten years or so, Billy,
check the website, see if their registration is still valid.
Come out, Come out. We're still sitting at twenty five
(51:50):
twenty eight percent right now. If we get that to
say thirty five forty forty five fifty, specifically on the
west side, Hyde Park, Mount Lookout, Mount Washington, we can
have new leadership.
Speaker 1 (52:02):
Yeah, people have to vote. Get off, vote off your
duff and go do something. If you care, I mean
if you don't care. If you don't care, don't vote,
don't care. If you like the status quo, want to
continue with this, you know what to do. Don't vote
or vote for AFTAB. You call him the coward of Cincinnati.
You have to have puivault.
Speaker 2 (52:18):
Well.
Speaker 3 (52:18):
I think he's a bad manager. I think he's disloyal,
I think he lies. I think he's a coward the
way he's handled this. And you know what, a week
and a half prior to this, he says to my
brother that there's no light between he and the chief.
While all this is brewing apparently. I mean yesterday my
brother Mike is approached by Iris Rowley at council chambers.
(52:39):
Just show support for Terry and how much she believes
she's being mistreated and this is being Iris. Let me
finish this being mistreated, and how much she treats, appreciates
and respects her and wishes things work out well.
Speaker 1 (52:52):
Whether Iris believes that or not, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (52:54):
But people who say those things, if you truly believe them,
get out and behind closed doors and share it. It's
not about Terry. It's about future seats for this chief position,
the fire chief position. It's about the future of the city.
Speaker 1 (53:09):
Right.
Speaker 3 (53:09):
If we want to use Terry as a process of
explaining it and having the opportunity to share it, okay,
we'll do that.
Speaker 1 (53:16):
She shouldn't be going through it.
Speaker 3 (53:17):
But with that said, there's council members reach out and
they say, how hey, we don't like the way this
is being done. They sit there and they toe the line,
as you say, they tow the line, Bill, and that

Speaker 5 (01:02:29):
Hey, I've got some wise words for that. Cincinnati better No,
your role is shut your mouth.
Speaker 1 (01:02:37):
Travis Kelcey, also known as mister on seven hundred woldo
Bill Cunning in the Great American. Of course, when I'm
watching the climbing right now, it's old, it's winning, and
(01:02:58):
it's wet, and in fact the hurricanes of largely passed
through PERMEAA. Things looking better there. But nonetheless, I hate
to say this, I think the views of average Americans
about man climate change are dissipating. I have a sense
we might be winning many times as conservatives we beat
against the doors have change and they never opened. But
(01:03:20):
I have a sense something is happening when it comes
to spending trillions of dollars on man made climate change,
which is a hoax in my viewpoint. Yes, I want
clean air, I want clean water, of course we all do.
But to spend trillions of dollars in pursuit of something
that's not going to happen. And secondly, fund liberal causes
is the real problem. And I would note also that
(01:03:40):
Bill Gates, one of the apostles of man made climate change,
the billionaire for Microsoft, is also shall shall I say,
softening his position. Joining you and I now is Mark Marino.
He's the founder of climatedepot dot com. And first of all, Mark,
welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Mark, the comments
of Bill Gates last few days have been startling. Tell
(01:04:01):
the American people what Bill Gates is saying, one of
the apostles of man made climate change, and why he's
lessening his position on the world's going to end any
anytime soon.
Speaker 6 (01:04:12):
Yeah, this is quite a remarkable development. Bill Gates the
architect of the modern climate scare. This is a man
who's worked closely with the World Health Organization, with the
United Nations.
Speaker 1 (01:04:24):
This is a man who.
Speaker 6 (01:04:25):
Has funded research to block out the sun to try
to stop for the heating. This is the man who's
the number one farm land owner in the United States
according to NBC News, with the stated explicit purpose of
moving cow emissions, cow agriculture, animal agriculture into the laboratory.
(01:04:46):
He's investing in lab grown meat made from stem cells
printed on.
Speaker 2 (01:04:50):
A three D printer.
Speaker 6 (01:04:51):
Bill Gates. Bill Gates came out this week and basically
said that climate change is not going to lead to
our demand. He warned against a doomsday outlook, and according
to The York Times, he's appeared to have shifted his
views on climate change. He's now openly talking about no
climate catastrophe, how we should be worried about human prosperity
(01:05:14):
and worried about human I mean everything climate He's founded
like Donald Trump overnight. This was a shocking development.
Speaker 1 (01:05:21):
Bill Well. He also cared about cow flatulence. He wanted
to block out the sun. He wanted to put some
sort of diaper system on a cow and do it
and capture the methane coming out of a cow's butt.
Explain that one to me, Yes, this is.
Speaker 6 (01:05:36):
This goes back decade when I was working in the
US Senate Environment of Public Works Committee. I worked for
the great Senator James Inhof now death, and we were
battling well, first, I hate to have to say, is
we were battling the Bush administration and the Obama administration.
In fact, it was the first Bush hw Bush in
nineteen ninety two that got us into this whole mess.
(01:05:58):
But when when I was working there, the UN came
out with this big report two thousand and seven that
said cow emissions, in other words, flatulence and burping and
methane from a cow were more damaging to the climate
than trains, planes, and automobile automobiles combined. So this led
off this whole Remember al Gore's motto, Hey we can
(01:06:19):
there's a lot of money to be made off of this.
There's a lot of entrepreneur this is going to be
business friendly. Oh, there was a lot of money to
be made. Bill Gates and al Gore both knew how
to make money. I love it with RFK Junior who
said about Bill Gates that he's a filantro capitalist. And
when you translate that and Bill Gates speak, it means
the more money he gives away, the wealthier he becomes.
(01:06:40):
I don't know how that works. Somehow, that's that's the
way charity's given. Now money's billionaire class.
Speaker 1 (01:06:45):
It's too good to being. You can't make this up.
I mean, this is the guy. Can you give us
an idea? But from nineteen ninety two, Democrats and Republicans
until the Trumpster about how much money has America spent
on and then the world. How much money we're talking
about here, I mean we.
Speaker 6 (01:07:04):
Were talking at this point globally trillion to trillions of dollars.
Speaker 2 (01:07:08):
I mean easily.
Speaker 6 (01:07:09):
I don't have the number in front of it, but
probably like five trillion or more in the US probably
been there record levels of you could say thirty billion
was the last estimate, but that was before things like
the Inflation Reduction Act, which tried to top out it
over a billion. You go back to Obama stimulus. The money,
(01:07:31):
it's not just the money directly allocated, it's the impact
of banning energy that work. Remember this whole thing began.
You know, if you go back to look at Al
Gore's testimony in the nineties, it was all supposed to
just be an economic opportunity. Well it quickly turned into
we're going to ban gas stoves, would inspire and pizza ovens.
(01:07:52):
We're gonna come after your meat. We're gonna can banish
the gas powered cars. We're gonna start going after carbon
footprints at homes, car, a footprint of travel. We're going
to start coming after every aspect of your life.
Speaker 1 (01:08:05):
And this is how Bill.
Speaker 6 (01:08:07):
Gates got involved. You mentioned the cow. He started funding
all the agriculture, started buying up farm land.
Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
He's promoting this.
Speaker 6 (01:08:14):
Whole idea of lab grow meating. And just give me
an idea what lab grow meat is. It's not the
vegetable oil processed stuff. This is stem cells from a cow, sheep, pig,
mixed together in a petri dish with fetal blood, then
put into a steel that allowed to fester for a
few months, then processed, made into a process that looks
like the pink goo from McDonald's sick and nuggets, and
(01:08:35):
eventually printed on a three D printer. This is a
true frankin food. What Bill Gates is funding.
Speaker 1 (01:08:41):
It's called lab grown meat. And so give me a
double change burger of lab grown meat, which begins as
a paint meat.
Speaker 6 (01:08:51):
It is meat because it's genetically dery, but think of
it as ultra processed, the exact opposite of anything. The
same with the vegetable oil process media that, by the way, impossible.
Burger now collapsing. It used to be a eight hundred
million dollar company and now it's eighty million in debt.
And this was a huge company that Al Gore invested
(01:09:12):
in and going back to what you said at the
opening bill, you said, the people don't seem to care anymore.
The CNN polster this past summer, I think it was
in August, showed a poll that showed that there's been
no increase in concern by Americans about global warming. This
is the late nineteen eighties when Gallup Polling started asking
this question, are you worried about global warming? Trillions of dollars,
(01:09:35):
massive education, propaganda to our kids, Hollywood, academia, all these
international organizations, all the treaties, all the media reports, and
Americans still care about the same level they cared in
the nineteen eighties, which by the way, was only in
the it's the low thirties of actually had It's usually
just the hardcore Democrat base that really cares about climate change.
Speaker 1 (01:09:55):
Now, let's get creative it, I said Mark Marino of
climatedepot dot com. What it is is a money grab
by liberal causes to fund universities, colleges, lots of jobs
for family members, and all funded by the so called
Department of Energy. There is no impending climate change apocalypse,
(01:10:15):
and they had to use the language of the apocalypse
to motivate lawmakers who receive large amounts of campaign donations
screened through liberal causes and foundations in order to fund
their campaigns. It had nothing to do with climate change,
had everything to do with funding liberalism.
Speaker 6 (01:10:32):
Correct, absolutely, in fact, the biggest funders. I mean, here's
what I love about this whole thing. Remember they just
stop oil and the extinction rebellion. The people with the
think care that would go spray and deface the Constitution
in the US, or go into an art gallery or
interrupt a football game, these were looked at it all,
(01:10:53):
look at these these are grassroots activists. Turns out just
who they were funded by, the Getty Foundation, the Hollywood
producer who did the High As up the film, major
Hollywood producer, Hillary Clinton funded these people. So all these
protesters which try to look organic and grassroots, they're not
taking it to the man. They're funded and speaking for
(01:11:15):
the man. And the man is the billionaire class and
the global organizations like World Economic Forum, United Nations, And
that is what this whole thing is about. You couldn't
be a Democrat running for office back then. But what
shocking bill is January when Donald Trump was sworn in
two point zero, he has decimated everything to the point
where this net zero banking alliance collapsing. I'm heading to
(01:11:39):
Brazil next week to this bleam cop thirty United Nations
Climate Summit, and over one hundred nations haven't even failed
to bother to submit their climate goals or meet the
climate goals for this UN summit. It's completely falling apart.
It's called the Trump effect. And that's what Bill Gates,
by the way, is reacting to when he came out
and basically walked away from three decades of climate sphere mongering.
Speaker 1 (01:12:02):
You know, I want to say something startling. In a sense,
I feel sorry for Greta Thunberg in a sense, she
was victimized by her education in Scandinavia. She believed the
crap taught to her, garbage in, garbage out, She acted
out in ways, and she had this odd facial expression
that captured the mainstream media. She was used and abused
(01:12:24):
by the climate alarmist for a particular goal, and now
that the whole thing is crashing, she'll be ignored. Do
you have some sympathy for the victimization of Greta Thunberg
at the hands of the climate alarmists. Do you feel
sorry for her.
Speaker 6 (01:12:39):
I mean, I do. This was a twelve year I
believe she started at age twelve years old.
Speaker 2 (01:12:44):
She had parents.
Speaker 6 (01:12:45):
Her mother was a climate activist, her dad was the
influential in the society, and they got her to the
point where she was literally thinking, what's the point of
going Her whole premise was, what's the point of going
to school if the earth is going to end? And
so that's why she started skipping school and doing these protests.
And of course she became the darling of the United
Nations and media. She was Time Magazine's person the here
(01:13:07):
but here's the interesting, here's the untold story. And I
witnessed this. I got to see her in person and
at the twenty nineteen Madrid UN Climate Summit. She was
absolutely a tool for the global elite establishment, the billionaire class,
and she was smart enough on her own. At two
thousand and two, I was at the UN Climate Summit.
(01:13:29):
I was in Scotland, and she announced that she was
basically disassociating herself from the UN climate scam. She said
it was full of greenwashing, and she called it a scam,
and she condemned the UN. The UN didn't miss a beat.
They forgot about Greta. They immediately For the next summit,
they hired a lady named Kanani A. I hate to
(01:13:50):
say this, but she was referred to as hot Greta.
She was. She wore skimpy outfits and hung around with
the UN Secretary General, and she replaced Greta. Greta then
went on, of course, to go fight protest Israel and
other things. But what's interesting about it is she had
vowed never to fly again, and she ended up on
an airplane after she got deported from Israel. So Israel,
(01:14:13):
it's amazing that Israel is able to get Greta to
violate her no flyban. But I feel bad for her,
but she's basically if you look at Greta's timeline and tweets,
she doesn't even talk climate anymore. She's walked away from
that movement. She's now fighting against Israel instead.
Speaker 1 (01:14:28):
Yeah, she loves Hamas And it's said at this point
she'll be used and abused by the climate alarmists, and
once it becomes kind of a hackneyed approach, they simply
discard her and pick up someone else.
Speaker 3 (01:14:40):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:14:40):
Lastly, Governor Kathy Hochel of New York has shifted her
stance on climate change under electoral pressure because of electricity costs.
The New Jersey election on Tuesday is gonna maybe turn
on this issue. Explain how liberals are now loving oil.
Explain that one a natural game.
Speaker 6 (01:15:00):
Okay, okay, Well, first of all, what Hochel said was
she cannot meet the state's climate goals through the horror
of the academia and all the activists. And her response
has been I have to have I want for I
have to worry about affordable rates and plentiful energy for
New Yorkers. Bingo, that's what we were saying for since
(01:15:21):
the nineteen nineties, all this nonsense about all these fake promises.
So what's happening here? And the reason Kathy hochels saying
that the reason the polling is going nowhere with climate,
the reason one hundred nations plus don't care about it.
The reason Mark Carney the new Prime Minister of Canada.
He was a world economic form he was a banker,
a Bank of England, head of the Bank of Canada
(01:15:45):
as globalists and climate action as you can imagine, one
of its first acts as Prime minister was to zero
out the Canadian carbon tax. This is shocking. It's the
whole world. A couple of things have come together. First,
the Trump effect, when you have a press in it
who's willing to go to this General to the General
h to the what's in New York City, the headquarters
(01:16:07):
of the UN, the General Assembly of the UN and
tell them that they've been perpetrating a fraud and a
hoax for decades and that they are all wrong about
climate and et cetera. And then do you have a
president who's just wiped out their agenda in the first
nine months and there's been no pushback. That's what's shocking.
There's no no, none of the activists even seemed to care.
(01:16:27):
That's what's so shocking. They realize this is not their
moment and they're just sort of laying low. And that's
where Bill Gates came out, and so that's what's happening.
And then, of course the final reason is that the
decades of lies about solar and wind and it's going
to be cheaper and it's plentible, it's taking over and
all we had to do blah blah blah blahl. There
you in trimates? Are you in Paris Agreement? And saved
the planet, our great superable thing, because well, guess what
(01:16:50):
after they had made all those announcements in twenty fifteen,
John Kerrey, President Obama, they literally the next year said
we had to save the planet all over again. I
remember being like, wait, am we saved it last year?
You said our grand shoulda would be forever and dead,
and all of a sudden we had to do it again.
There's no criteria by which they were ever going to
say we solved the climate crisis. There was always more regulations,
(01:17:13):
more bands, more restrictions in our life, more power to
them until we can solve the crisis. But there was
no way to solve it. So every time they declared
victory like you in Paris, it didn't matter because the
next year they were warning of tipping points and we
had to save it all over again.
Speaker 1 (01:17:30):
Well, Greteth Thunberg believed that our hair was going to
fall out, that's our teeth would decay, that you'd have
a gas mask walking around. The predictions of the nineteen
nineties and two thousand and two thousand and one was
that by twenty twenty five, twenty five years later, the
Florida will be under eight feet of seawater, the world's
going to end. Many liberal females don't want to have
(01:17:50):
babies because they're going to live in a world and
in which methane is going to turn their lungs in
the Craven episodes, and I'm thinking, Okay, none of that
stuff happened. Now Bill Gates is talking about let's use
energy to improve the lives of the poor around the world. Wow,
always a hoax in the world.
Speaker 6 (01:18:09):
And that's exactly right, that's a good message. Now, where's
the thing. Does Bill Gates really believe what he's saying? No,
Bill Gates is already mentioned the more he gives away,
the richer he becomes, So there's some kind of this
just connect there somewhere.
Speaker 1 (01:18:24):
Usually give it all. Well, good luck to that next
week in Brazil. The agenda is not going to be filled,
and I would imagine the results of this will mean
that Americans and Europeans have to spend more in Africa
and Asia pursuing policies that won't work in America. Billions
of dollars have been saved to giveaways to George Soros
and other foundations to preach about the concerns of the climate,
(01:18:47):
which was a bunch of crap from the beginning. The
rich get rich or the poor get poor. Even Bill
Gates now says, let's use energy to uplift the lives
of mankind. Wow, full circle.
Speaker 6 (01:18:58):
Bingo, incredible, It's incredible. But he's playing that's in the end.
This is all strategic. He's just going with what he's
trying to he's laying low right now. But what they
ultimately want to do is merge climate into a public
health issue. This is why you have carbon footprint of asthma,
carbon footprint of cancer medication. This is why you have
digni patients with climate change.
Speaker 1 (01:19:18):
Climate change, climate change. You couldn't make the trillions of
dollar spent on nothing to fund liberalism. Website climatedepot dot com.

Speaker 6 (01:19:35):
Thank you, Thank you. Bill, appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (01:19:37):
God bless you. I think Americans have figured it out.
I think maybe we have another win. Bill Cunningham News
Radio seven hundreds.
Speaker 5 (01:19:45):
Wow, I've got some wise words for that, Cincinnati mayor.
Speaker 1 (01:19:50):
No, your role is shut your mouth. Hello, I'm broadcasting
segments appeared there's this guy over here, just walk off
the street back. Too much tape and too many people
(01:20:12):
are taping too much. Gone. Well, I'm glad to be here.
Speaker 4 (01:20:15):
When's your next Tuesday Night? Wednesday, Thursday night games and
back to back fashion.
Speaker 3 (01:20:20):
I'm sure I'll have some action next week, I believe,
and then the following week and then some games on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (01:20:25):
So let's go a big issue. You ready for the
big question? Fire away Flacco yay or nay? On Sunday
with the.
Speaker 4 (01:20:31):
Bad AC and an AC joint. He's practicing today? What
throwing passes? What just saw it? Ben Baby took a
picture and video Flacco is throwing at practice for the.
Speaker 3 (01:20:44):
Big I understand a se joints is it's it's more
a matter of pain than that's something you're gonna like
pain the big deteriorate more if you know that kind
of thing. But what about your guy Clifford from sand
X taking the place of Tom Brady. Starter has heard
signed a one hundred million dollar contract.
Speaker 1 (01:21:02):
Brady comes in. What's your name again?
Speaker 2 (01:21:04):
Kid?
Speaker 1 (01:21:04):
Tom Brady get in there, took him to the super Bowl,
the title. Then they had a quarterback controversy the next
year could Clifford arise from saying accent dominate.
Speaker 3 (01:21:13):
Is he gonna play or is Browning gonna play? I
can't say snake a snake. I hope Clifford gets an opportunity.
That'd be great. Now I will say this, I want
Joe Flacco to play, But if he doesn't and Jake
Brown plays, I like that guy and I feel like,
you know, for whatever reason, he got an opportunity and
didn't work out for him. It was in a contract year.
But he's a genuinely nice guy, a hard worker. I
(01:21:35):
hope he goes out there if he plays and has
a great game. See his girlfriend in the the white
outfit last year.
Speaker 1 (01:21:41):
Yeah, more curves than of the hill. I was forced
to look at that and research that at mershtle Bit.
That was the research on going, not as in depth
as you would like. Now what about it? Yeah, I
gave I heard your inview with her brother.
Speaker 3 (01:21:56):
So so let me ask you this, so and tell
me if I'm right or wrong on the money, not
of the money. So no one can really make an
argument right now that as the as the police chief,
acting as the current police chief, that she has been
tough on crime. You couldn't make that argument, right. No
one's going to confuse what she's done for sy Lea,
(01:22:16):
Sir Richard Kate. No one's going to compare those.
Speaker 1 (01:22:20):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (01:22:20):
But but she has a history of great police work, right,
maybe not so much in this role.
Speaker 1 (01:22:26):
Tell she became the chief under it. But then here's
my power of the county.
Speaker 3 (01:22:29):
Here's my question with herder lawyers.
Speaker 1 (01:22:32):
Then make the case.
Speaker 3 (01:22:33):
Look, I am acting at the behest of the city
manager and the mayor. You find the email, find the
correspondence where they're telling me you got to be tougher
on crime. I bet you'll find the opposite. Right, So,
because you can, her lawyers not make that case.
Speaker 1 (01:22:50):
She was a reflection of what they demand me.
Speaker 3 (01:22:52):
I'm only implementing the policies that the people above me
are telling me to implement.
Speaker 1 (01:22:57):
She's the instrument in the hands of Sheryl Long and
the Howard of the set. That's what that's what her
lawyers should the puppet the case they should make.
Speaker 2 (01:23:03):
Right.
Speaker 1 (01:23:03):
Yes, she's going to get millions and millions of dollars.
Speaker 3 (01:23:07):
Because I mean she got great reviews. Right, Yes, So
you make the case. This is all one hundred thousand
percent purely political, purely political passification.
Speaker 1 (01:23:17):
Makes Captain Neville, what happened between the great reviews above exceptional?
Kind of like this segment above exceptional and suddenly she's fired.
What happened between above exceptional and fired? And the answer
is it's got to come from the top. And if
the person at the top, the mayor, who is a
he's a beta male. Okay, let's call what it is.
(01:23:38):
A beta man. He's not a killer.
Speaker 3 (01:23:40):
He's not someone that's going to cop down and do
things that are hard to do. He wants to play
the part and a play of a mayor, not actually
do the role that is.
Speaker 1 (01:23:50):
Sharp precincts given the men and women orders. No, he's
not walking there at you know, five am meetings. Listen,
damn it.
Speaker 3 (01:23:57):
Here's only got to do this. Yeah, he's not doing
at all. So you know she can only act the
way you know.
Speaker 1 (01:24:06):
At his direction.
Speaker 3 (01:24:07):
Right, he's from show show me the conversation, show me
that of him saying listen, Cheryl, I want more people arrested,
I want more cops in the streets.
Speaker 1 (01:24:17):
I want drones, I want dogs, I want all this.
Show me that, show me.
Speaker 3 (01:24:22):
If he can produce that, then okay, then she can
be fired. But if not, I imagine it's gonna be
the exact opposite. We started digging through the records. That's
what our lawyers need to take up front and say
it up here, it is, here, it is and if.
Speaker 1 (01:24:33):
That's the case, then she should get all the money.
You know. I spoke to your friend Mike Dwaine last
night about unrelated matters. Then I said to him, how
much cooperation are you getting from the city And he
said something classic for a politician, We wish there was more.
So very carefully calculated, Well is there enough? He said,
(01:24:54):
I wish there was more? And so you have a
crime crisis. I can't you just say it like it is.
I can just say, look, there's a bunch of bums there,
a bunch of bums and cowards, the cowards of Cincinnati,
he said, I wish they would do more.
Speaker 3 (01:25:09):
Well, now, there's a reason why people like Donald Trump
is because he just if you're not doing the job,
he's gonna tell you.
Speaker 1 (01:25:14):
If you are, you're it's great. It's you know, here's
the Are you ready for the other issue? You know
where you stand? Yes, fireway. The city manager controls supposedly
the chief of police. Yeah or Nate, good reason, bad reason.
You're not well employee. You can be fired for a
good reason, a bad reason, or no reason. You serve
at the pleasure of the city man. So that's what
(01:25:35):
they're going to stand on. And instead of saying, you
know what, Teresa Terry, you've been here thirty six years.
We love your service. You're a mother of four and
a grandmother of nine. She came up from the bottom
riding traffic tests all the way to the top vice
and she spent all this time becoming the best chiefs
she could. And then she wanted to enforce laws she didn't.
(01:25:56):
I was told d indirectly, don't enforce those laws because
we don't want them. And oh, since she serves as
the pleasure of the city management, couldn't she simply say, look,
you've done nothing wrong, but we want to go a
different direction. We're gonna put you on. We're gonna let
you gus not how they know they wanted to smear
her on the way out. That's what That's what has
(01:26:16):
the nevil Klan all pissed off. Just tell us, okay, pleasure,
give you a great you'd be nice, but we need
we need to move on, but we're gonna compliment you,
et cetera. They didn't do that. No embarrass her, embarrassing you.
Even another example of how much of those folks are lowlife. Lowlife.
(01:26:37):
What anybody call the mayor back from Vancouver. Yes, the
mayor's in Vancouver on vacation when July twenty sixth happened,
and he was aggrieved that he had to come back
from his vacation. We didn't come back that next day.
He waited a few days. But you know, the city
manager should have said, look, we love you, Terry, but
we're gonna go another direction. Done a great job, here's
(01:26:58):
the gold Watch retirement part, and we like, we don't.
We don't need your services anymore, that's all. But they
didn't do that. They waited for her to go to
a police chiefs convention. That they do.
Speaker 3 (01:27:09):
These people know how to do anything right. They can't
even fire someone right, They can't even move on from someone, right.
What would Donald Trump do? You're fire' you know what?
It just ain't working out. God bless you, we love you.
But yeah, here's the other thing. Ins a little bit
inside baseball insult injury. The law firm is going to
spend forty to fifty thousand dollars justifying what the mayor
did after he's done it by finding dirt on Teresa Thiji.
(01:27:32):
They're not gonna come back and say, Frost Todd, you
know what, mayor, she did a great job.
Speaker 1 (01:27:36):
Yeah, I don't think you should. They're gonna go back
and say, she didn't do this, she didn't do that,
she didn't do this. They keeping, that's what you got
to go back to. Well, how come in real time?
That's what I come in real time? She's doing a
great job. All of a sudden goes to the shooting
on Fountain Square. Inside that that pizza parlor next to
Jeff Ruby's teakehouse. That's when they said, okay, that's when
(01:27:56):
the city fathers got together and told the mayor, we
remember we had Ruby on et cetera. She came on.
So then they panicked and said, we got it, so
we need a scalp, and the scalp's not gonna be me,
it's gonna be you. We're gonna smear you and take
your job away. That's why the Nevils are pissed.
Speaker 3 (01:28:13):
There's not one documented piece of evidence of them telling her,
you must be harder on crime.
Speaker 4 (01:28:19):
It does not exist. I would bet my life on it. Segment,
Give me some sports. We got more information on Jordan
Hudson coming up. Well, what the the stuot reporters of
proud service of her local Tamestar Heating and air conditioning
dealers Thamestar quality you can feel in Cincinnati called Stacy
Heating and Air Solutions five one, three, three six seven
(01:28:40):
h E A T spot.
Speaker 1 (01:28:45):
Josh Berkowitz, Yeah, it just came to me Arona, Cincinnati.
It's nothing about the past, nothing about the futures. Right now,
we're parents Cincinnati. Is it twenty million? You're a ESPN,
You're the big man on campus when it comes to
college football? Twenty million dollar buyout for Belichick? Yay or nay?
Speaker 3 (01:29:08):
Well, it's not as much as Brian Kelly's fifty four
million dollars.
Speaker 1 (01:29:12):
Is he welcome on college campus at Notre Dame, the
all time winning his coach? Is he welcome at UC?
Is he welcome in LSU? My family? Why would somebody goes?
Speaker 3 (01:29:23):
I think there's a way you can be you can
be hard and you can be old school. Plenty of
coaches do it. Nick Saban, Kurt Signetti, you know Dan
landing without burning bridges, but notre is.
Speaker 1 (01:29:35):
What's a great way to get started? And I haven't
even won all my games yet, phony with a capital
to be a Tiger. I'm here with my family. Family,
You're so excited. I just didn't start off on the
right foot. Right right there was like, and who's the
(01:29:57):
fool who's got the fifty four great great fans? And
it ain't an incredible ride here?
Speaker 3 (01:30:07):
And uh listen well, and Ieran Meyer was saying that
I guess the the Louisiana governor was in on this.
Speaker 1 (01:30:14):
Landry Landry, who's ever in charges? Are a whole new
fifty four million we're given him. He's not welcome anywhere
he's been. Could you go back to Sandex and be welcomed? Absolutely?
Did you go back? Absolutely, no question, no question.
Speaker 3 (01:30:29):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (01:30:30):
Could you go back to col rend Or n Ku
and be wine dined in pocket lined? Yes? Yes? Could
I go back to Deer Park? You do often often could?
But they named everything out over there. There's nothing not
a name for.
Speaker 3 (01:30:42):
Saying, there's not a park or even a spare blade
of grass that doesn't have his name on it.
Speaker 1 (01:30:48):
It's less than I deserve. But nonetheless, why can't you
go back to any place you've been? If you've never
been back to any place you've been? Is that is
that bad? Who's going to hire him now? Penn State? Eh?
Speaker 4 (01:31:00):
Eh, just saying James Franklin, as rumored hes in Virginia Tech.
Speaker 1 (01:31:05):
That's a tough job. Five years, sixty sixty million.
Speaker 3 (01:31:09):
From what I've read that, I guess they're somehow they're
making going to make more investments in their football program,
and that means the dough of the ray and the
me for nil.
Speaker 4 (01:31:18):
I'm the worst coming from three. But that's been the
problem with that job for a week. We're ready for the
three options with Brian Kelly.
Speaker 1 (01:31:24):
Yes, A, B and C. A is to take eight
hundred and some thousand dollars a month until twenty thirty one,
not a bad gig. Two is to have this set
off apply, which means if he gets another job, whatever
that dollar amount is, subtract that from the fifty four
mil or three. He has to have good faith attempts
(01:31:47):
to get another job. So down the road, if he
didn't get another job, LSU can sue him, alleging that
Brian Kelly has not made quote good faith attempts to
get another job, in which case they don't have to
pay him to fifty four mil. Could he go to
the pros? Yes, good any offset football job offset. I
think he could.
Speaker 4 (01:32:05):
Maybe that's the best, the best spot for him. Take
go b an Oc somewhere. Take fifteen million dollars. The
other deal is, give me, let's work out a deal.
Forget about the good faith attempts.
Speaker 1 (01:32:15):
Forget about it. In one thousand a month, I will
take twenty million dollars and let me go. I'll do
what I want.
Speaker 3 (01:32:21):
To do, whatever I want to do, if I want
to go fishing, or if I want to coach whatever.
Speaker 1 (01:32:26):
But right now he's tied to LSU. I don't know what.
Speaker 3 (01:32:28):
I don't know if a TV network's going to have
him more than he's not very good see, but he's
gonna want to go on TV to repair the image.
Speaker 1 (01:32:34):
Yes, kind of like Saban's done. Well, Saban go back.
I don't know. He's old. He's like seventy three. When
you're that old, you should retire, is what I say. Right,
just stay on TV. Right, He's not bad. By the way,
Belichick was better on TV than coaching. From a PR perspective,
that's a bold state. He was pretty good on TV.
(01:32:54):
Nick Saban's fantastic.
Speaker 3 (01:32:55):
I think he's the single best thing on.
Speaker 1 (01:32:59):
TV and not. I don't know if he likes it though,
you got it in your blood like.
Speaker 3 (01:33:03):
Segments at I like you guys, but you're not serious people.
Speaker 1 (01:33:08):
You got to sit next to Pat McAfee the whole time.
Speaker 3 (01:33:12):
He's really good on TV. He teaches you football. That's
what I want.
Speaker 1 (01:33:16):
Ali Check was better on TV than he was doing
news conference.
Speaker 3 (01:33:19):
He was great when he would go on Peyton Manning's
uh was good and manning Castle was good.
Speaker 1 (01:33:24):
He's ruined himself? Is he ruined until he starts a
new family with Jordan Hudson? What daddy call me daddy?
Speaker 3 (01:33:31):
What if he got rid of her and said, look,
I'm making you know what, this whole thing is not
fitting more.
Speaker 1 (01:33:37):
That's gonna call it. That's palamonia. What if she gets
married or she can't? What if she gets pregnant.
Speaker 3 (01:33:43):
He's saying she's gonna pull a goalie on him, and
DNA try to pull the goalie.
Speaker 1 (01:33:48):
Pull the goalie, DNA testing, can you say pull the goalie?
I don't know. You tell me. I think there's moments
of passion. Men have pulled the goalie, would you agree?
And women?
Speaker 3 (01:34:00):
We men usually don't pull it, women pull the goalie.
Understanding segment that what we're talking about. We got our issues.
I think I do what a problem? Four million dollars?
Speaker 1 (01:34:10):
What am I going to do except twenty mil buyout?
Should I take eight or one thousand a month the
rest of my life? Or maybe I should, you know,
go back into coaching and have an offset or be sued.
He can go back to Central Michigan tomorrow. That's the
only is that the chip awas the chip was, that's
where he was at before he came to U see
Central Michigan State. Yeah, he coached there. It was pretty
(01:34:32):
good too, wasn't he? But fifteen him? You got all
the money, you got all that. Maybe you just want
to coach ball. Maybe get a coach, get a twenty something.
Speaker 3 (01:34:42):
To Grand Valley State. You don't have to worry about
nil and on his crap. He just coach coach? Segment
Is that in sports?
Speaker 1 (01:34:48):
Yeah? Give me out of the suits. By the way,
what's on the big show today? I don't know. I
have no idea segment Eddie's working on.
Speaker 5 (01:34:55):
At the game.
Speaker 1 (01:34:55):
We have Scott Wortman talking about the Fiji mess. It's
a mess. It's a mess, and who caused it? I
should be your lawyer. You get some money, get out
one to two million for defamation of character. All they
had to do is say, look at will we decide
to let you go. We're gonna honor you completely. We're
not going to find dirt on you which don't exist
in order to justify the decision I've already made. Yeah,
(01:35:16):
there's no dirt, honor dirt. Women don't have any dirt,
especially older women have no dirt segment. Give me out
of student younger women have dirt segment. Give me out
of the Stoog's report.
Speaker 4 (01:35:25):
Willy, in honor of a rainy day here in the
tri State and the triumphant return to the Rock and
long lived Fiji, we leave you with the immortal words
of the Stooge Report.
Speaker 5 (01:35:37):
I've got some wise words, but that Cincinnati mayor, No,
your role is shut your mouth.
Speaker 6 (01:35:46):
With him.
Speaker 4 (01:35:47):
I agree with him. What about little Taylor Swift? Did
did cost us the Super Bowl? That's phony best conference
he had?
Speaker 1 (01:35:56):
Yes on seven hundred wlw
