Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hurling stepping in a beautiful day, unless you're stuck waiting
seven to ten minutes give or take southbound on seventy
one coming up to Montgomery Road with that construction taking place,
two lanes are blocked on the right side. You heard
that with the Freddie Hopkins before, so just know that's
(00:20):
what the deal is and you want to get over
the left. I had to navigate that coming in while
listening to ken Brew. I'm like, people, come on, get over.
I'm trying to get off here. Everybody else trying to
get to Kenwood Town Center. I'm trying to get here
to this place. Alex Egan producing sterling, hanging out taking
up the Reds baseball. They'll try to salvage one game
out of their trip to San Francisco before jetting off
to the Land of Paradise and fish cocgos in San Diego.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
But they got at least a win today. That would
be nice.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
More on that with the Inside Pitch last night, I
had a guy on the show who is an expert
in maritime and seafare issues of security and law. His
name's Ian Ralby, is one the head guy and CEO
of ir Concilium and globally known for the things I
just mentioned in security issues and in law when it
(01:10):
comes to piracy, and a whole lot of other stuff
you heard in the news. Also, obviously the ceasefires not
very ceasefire like going on with the issue of Iran,
the straight of Horn moves in the Persian Gulf. Our
gas prices are a bit lower than they have been.
There are concerns about what comes if this does not break,
the blockade does not end. I asked him also here
(01:32):
to start in this conversation we had about the twenty
thousand plus men and women working on these cargo container
ships as well as those carrying oil tank filled up
or waiting to be filled up to help get some
of this twenty percent or so of petroleum products, including
refined stuff that we need here for like motor oil
(01:53):
and stuff going. And this is what he said last
night on the Big One. It is Ian Ralby with
Star on seven hundred WW.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Yeah, it's been a tough few months for them. The
uncertainty both about when they're going to move and what's
going to happen to them has been I think crippling
for some of them. They have faced all kinds of
threats including you know, kinetic hits from drones, from missiles.
There have been fires on board a lot of ships.
We've seen an inordinate number of seafares be killed in
(02:23):
a short period of time as compared to other conflicts.
And at the same time, they don't know what the
future holds, and so they're running out of food, medicine,
all kinds of things. So it's spent a grim time
for the men and women who actually carry the ninety
percent of world trade that happens by sea. But there
has been some relief recently in the form of Iran's
Persian Gulf Straight Authority, which is this combination of permitting
(02:47):
and toll scheme that unfortunately seems to be taking hold.
And that I say unfortunately because it spells trouble for
the future of not only maritime commerce but the global economy.
And not only is Iran involved, but the Omanis are
seemingly interested in considering this to be a potentially permanent fixture.
(03:07):
So we have seen about three hundred ships get out,
but they have gotten out under very very concerning circumstances.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
The CEO of I are Concilium doctor Ian ralbie Hens
I are a short bus rider. But I think that's
how that comes together with Stirling seven hundred dol well w.
So these vessels got through by paying tolls and being
led through these mind waters in that bottleneck area in
the US let them out or is this like being
(03:34):
done sort of on the download? You know about it,
now we know about it. I can't understand how if
it's blockaded, they're letting them through like that.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yeah, it's a confusing picture, to say the least. The
blockade technically applies to ships that have called at Iranian
ports or are in some ways availing themselves of iran
As in jurisdiction. But these ships seem to have sailed
through Iranian waters and have been allowed to go out
or in, depending on which direction they're heading.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
It's a little bit unclear, you know.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
The part of the problem with this whole conflict is
that the information space is as important as the physical space,
and both parties seem to enjoy a degree of deception.
The Iranians have made outright bold, very very false claims,
but equally on our side, unfortunately, we've said some things
that have proved just not to be true. So it's
hard to make sense of what's rhetoric, what's reality, and
(04:24):
really what's going on. But there has been some movement,
it is limited, and the general thrust of it is
that most of the energy supplies, most of the goods
that are supposed to be coming both out of the
Gulf and into the Gulf to serve other states are
just stuck. And so it's continuing to put huge pressure
on global energy supplies and the global economy. And we're
(04:47):
getting towards a critical point in the next few weeks
where we're going to start running out of some of
the key supplies, and in the US that translates into
some strange things because even though we're not very reliant
on the Middle Eastern oil, do have complicated supply chains
that mean that we're seeing about a forty percent shortage
in motor oil. So synthetic oils in the United States
(05:08):
are becoming a real problem.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
So we've got to pay attention.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Because the cost of just going to get your oil
changed to jiffy lube I could go up quite a
lot if they can't access that supply.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Well, that's quite disturbing. Sterling on seven hundred WLW A
doctor Ian Rolby, he's the boss of I R Concilium.
He's a guy in the know when it comes to
security issues, maritime concerns globally, when it comes to getting around.
We've talked piracy in the past. This is a next
level situation with a straight horn moves closed.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Ian.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
You mentioned the issue of food and medicine, and I
had asked you a time or two back when we
had you on the show, and we appreciate you making
yourself available. I know you're like a very You're a
Fiji for those who don't know, and you sound like
you're across the Montgomery Road here, which is tremendous. So
I appreciate you making time while you're in paradise in
(06:00):
the midst of this. But I had asked about servicing
these vessels and the twenty thousand people that are there,
even though some of these small quantity these vessels have
gotten in and out of there. What does that mean
for food service, in water that's fresh, in medicines for
all these crews, who is servicing them? Are they able
to go to any ports in the Persian golfer in
(06:22):
that area or are they literally just in limbo, sitting
there anchored, waiting for whatever comes next.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Well, that depends a bit on the ship owner. A
lot of the owners are really trying to do their
best to look after everybody and make sure that they
are getting access to everything, but there's a degree to
which that is just not as easy and possible as
anybody would like. The Seafair's charities and wellness associations are
doing an incredible job, and they're being looked after better
(06:50):
than they have in the past in some situations. The
COVID crisis, for example, was really really grim for the seafares.
Many of the hundreds of thousands worldwide we're stuck out
at sea for more than seventeen months without being able
to come to shore, and another three hundred to four
hundred thousand were stuck on land. So this is a
slightly less awful situation, but we compound the problem with
(07:13):
not only having access to goods, supplies, water, food, medicine,
but also the issue of just the constant stress of
not knowing whether there's a missile or drone coming. Because
we have seen ships just in the last week hit
in un Cussar in Iraq, we've seen them hit in Kuwait,
We've seen them hit in other parts of the gulf
that are not directly part of the immediate vicinity of
(07:34):
the conflict, and so you could just be sitting minding
your own business waiting for something to happen, and then
something really terrible does happen. And that is really a
difficult position for men and women who are not trained
for this. But I do want to make one comment,
if I may. I got to Fiji last night. I'm
here for work, and the cab driver who picked me
up from the airport had to pull over and get
some gas and he said, you know, the cost has
(07:58):
gone up more than double for his fuel costs here.
So we are on the other side of the planet
as far away from the conflict as could be, and
everybody is talking about it because you know, his comment
was he wished Americans cared more about the lowly people
in other parts of the world, and I promised him
we did. But the problem is that it's just a
crippling cost that does not seem to be heading for
(08:19):
any relief anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
CEO of ir Concilium Ian Rolby, was stirling seven hundred WLW.
How does the issue of payment going through there? Because
we discussed this early on, they all will get tolls.
Even the President of the United States mentioned, well, maybe
they get on that too, but then that's quieted down
subsequently because they say that's not a good plan. But
this is a major concern, and you mentioned it not
(08:43):
just being for the Strait of Horror moves but elsewhere.
So is the concern then that other nation states, rogue
or otherwise or even pirates in some fashion would then
start holding vessels in some fashion hostage like this and
waiting for payment beyond just.
Speaker 5 (08:59):
Can you hear me? Yes? Can okay?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
So you know, the whole Iranian regime is actually fairly
well organized when it comes to bureaucracy, and what they've
essentially done is taken a bureaucratic approach to handling this.
So ships have a very clear process by which they
have to, you know, send messages with all kinds of
details requesting permission, and the permission is the granted or denied,
(09:23):
and then a payment process is offered to them, either
through cryptocurrency or Chinese you on. And the Chinese have
seemingly become the backers for this, and so this is
a really concerning trend. In addition to the implications for
maritime security, regarding the overall efforts that we've seen from China,
(09:44):
Russia and other countries to try to get the global
economy off of the US dollar and outside of the
regulation of financial institutions in the United States. And so
we are seeing exactly that taking shape, where the payments
are are coming through mechanism that don't involve any.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
Kind of nexus to the US.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
And so we could see this be formalized and take
hold not only here but potentially elsewhere if something isn't
done to really say, hey, hang on a minute, the
cost of goods has to stay low for everybody around
the world, no matter who it is, and this will
only increase that cost and decrease the accessibility of goods.
(10:22):
And if we do this, we're going to see a
real change in how global trade and the global economy functions.
So that's what's happening at the moment. But this seems
to be attractive to other parties, including the Omanis, who
seem to continue to negotiate for the potential of a
joint scheme on this Persian called trade authority.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
And we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
And I know we're showing Tom, I appreciate you making
yourself available in relation to the current situation with all
these vessels, how many are stuck and if in fact
hostilities ended tomorrow and it opened up and they weren't,
you know, charging people and having to go through that
rigamarole to get through and out of there or into
(11:01):
that space, how long are we talking for them just
to either get loaded up with whatever they have to
load up with, or if they've already dumped it off
and they're on to the next place, for this stuff
to get moving, because, as you mentioned, reserves for petroleum
products like motor oil, et cetera, and a whole host
of other things are months and months out and we're
not even yet really feeling the pinch on that as
(11:22):
reserves have gone so low exactly.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
So it's a good question and as tough one to answer.
So it looks like it's about sixteen hundred ships or
so that that need to get moving, but no two
ships are quite the same, and so what we have
to also pay attention is what kind of ships they
are and what is moving. So we have a mix
of container vessels, roll on, roll off vessels, tankers of
(11:46):
different sorts. But when it comes to the Gulf, the
key The key goods are obviously energy supplies, but even
in that space, we've got some diversity because you have
crude oil, you have refined fuel products, and we also
have other gas products, both liquified petroleum gas and liquified
natural gas, the latter of which requires a specific type
(12:08):
of ship, with a specific type of terminal and specific routings.
That's going to take a long time to get back
up and running because so much of the infrastructure around
it has been damaged, and so we are looking at
a timeline of about five years for the Katari gas
fields to come back online. That's a real problem, and
that's thirty five percent of some of the largest gas
fields in the world offline for a number of years.
(12:30):
So even if everything reopens today, we aren't going to
see a magical resumption of you know, two to three
dollars gasoline. We're going to see a gradual process where
it may actually continue to go up even with the.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
Of the Somehow, the.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Price and the accessibility of oil and gas supplies have
not been in parallel. In other words, the price is
artificially low because everybody is hopeful that this conflict will
be resolved.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
But from a.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Supply standpoint, it is pretty concerning and it will be
for quite a while.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
So I would imagine a freight rate to ship whatever
it is aboard a vessel and getting it where it goes,
not just where we're talking about with the Straight of
Horror moves and the Persian Gulf, but globally that is
going up. If it hasn't already, probably will go up substantially.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
We're actually looking at a weird situation. Russian sanctioned bunker fuel,
which was given sanctions relief temporarily, has kind of helped
keep those freight rates lower. So again that artificial pricing
is partly because of de sanctioning Russian entities. So we're
in a strange position where everything is kind of temporary
(13:45):
and the future is extremely uncertain.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
What if I not asked before we let you bounce
into the rest of your working time in a place
that the most of us imagine going at some point
before we kick the bucket Fiji, and there you go.
We lost him last night. I mean, he was okay,
but as good as he sounded talking to Ian Ralby.
By the way, I are concilium CEO about all the
issues of the Strait of hormones, oil issues, cufares, all
(14:09):
those tankers that are stuck there, that's an insane number
of them. Frankly, it's hard to process that there's going
to be that many, sixteen hundred ships or whatever and
nearly twenty thousand people there. It's crazy. But he was fine,
just we lost our connection and then by the time
it was we couldn't deal with that. So a good
talking to him last night. Not a very promising situation,
(14:30):
just the same. Ir Concilium is where you can find
out more online about Ian and what he does. Doctor
Ralby straight away your twelve thirty report, the latest on
what's going on with traffic on seventy one elsewhere, the
Straight of Horror moves, the shooting in Toledo, Holy crap,

Speaker 9 (16:30):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Here we are a Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I almost said Saturday because it kind of feels like
it's Saturday, but I worked last night. It's all just weird.
I hope you're doing all right. Seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Sorry.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
I was just thinking about the Mississippi and the West
Bank where the Arch to the West is in Saint Louis,
and the Reds taking on those Cardinals later this afternoon.
Inside pitch, we'll get you ready for it. Red's trying
to salvage one game for it's a getaway day for them,
and the brooms are out the Cardinals. I'd like to
make them well. I would like the Reds to make
(17:06):
them put them away and then get out of town
for a win and then on to south southern California.
We'll see how that goes. Get better ground to cover.
This is a weird topic. I wanted to try to
have some fun and not just all serious, and this
is interesting. I think we have a topic here of
good conversation. I was talking to Alex Egan off the
air about this. I have some other people I've known
(17:27):
and sort of kick around ideas and stuff. Sometimes it's
just a crazy conversation we have maybe over beers or
around a bonfire group text with my buddies, and I'm like, well,
there's something that's weird, and this is one of those
where I think everybody can get involved. Young, old male, female, richpoort,
doesn't matter. We've all had experiences in our life. The
question is this, What have you tried just one time
(17:49):
that you were like never doing that again. You immediately
were thinking I should have reevaluated before doing this particular thing.
Whatever it is, it doesn't matter. Friend of mine's wife
said after their first kid, and they were all gung
ho about having babies, and she did it the natural way.
(18:09):
Where As a guy and I understand their dangers of
drugs and the epidural or whatever else, maybe get into
the baby. But of all the recreational ways that people
like to alter their state of mind legally or otherwise,
the idea that your birthing a baby physically. Maybe it's
(18:30):
just because I'm a guy and we are a whimps
when it comes to pain compared to women in our lives.
But she says after the first child, and she told
him I was there shortly after she was like, there
is no way in hell I'm doing this again. We
can adopt. We stop at one. And I was like,
I totally get it. My buddy was a little upset
about it. Something that's not quite as severe as birthing
(18:53):
a baby is eating raw oysters, which I've done back
in my days in Dayton working rock radio, like at
TUE and Wazoo. Before that, they had a charitable event
at jay Seafood, which was a great spot still there
in the Oregon district, I think, and they would have
I can't remember which charities it was for. I want
to say it was like MS, or maybe it was
(19:15):
muscular dystrophe. I'm not sure, both worthy causes of people
I know that have suffered from both of those. And
it was an oyster eating contest and they had them
on the half shell, big plates full of them, and
you were supposed to eat as many as you could,
like in five minutes or something. And I've told this
story before and I thought, Okay, I'm gonna do this
for charity. There was no difference whether I ate one
(19:35):
oyster or whether I ate two hundred oysters. But I figured,
if I'm there and I'm going to compete, I want
to win, because that's how I was raised, and there
are no ties, and I don't want to be a loser.
And I pounded down like ninety nine or one hundred
and one the first year. Then I did it again
the second year because I'm a slow learner, and all
(19:55):
I can recall is pounding down or slurping down covered
raw oysters or oysters on the high half shell, and
then later that afternoon feeling like a hundred of them
just sort of floating in my belly, the reevaluation of
maybe my portion could have been smaller. I wasn't even
a competitor. I wasn't a gamer. There were people who
(20:16):
did like two hundred, two hundred and fifty of these.
They were professional oysters, slurping down fools that anytime that
ever comes up again and I'll eat a couple of them.
But for a few years after that, anybody like, hey,
you want some oysters, I gotta take a pass. That
was like a one time deal that I did twice.
I know somebody else who did the bungee jumping thing,
(20:38):
a friend of mine, very extreme sports oriented, and apparently
there was a bit of a give to the cord
and they came within what they described as like alarm's
length away from hitting like the bottom or near the
water where they were. It was somewhere like over West
Virginia or something, and they were like, hell no, never
doing that again.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
So I totally get that.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
So I'm wondering, what have you done one time that
you immediately regreted and you're like, I'm never doing it again.
Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven, eight hundred the
big one. You can talk back the iHeartRadio app by
clicking on the microphone. It's it's one of those things.
It's it's pretty funny. Oh well, this is good Ken,
but it's not our ken Brew At Sterling Radio DM.
Just now it says line dancing. Did it to please
(21:21):
his wife? Never again?
Speaker 2 (21:25):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I've never done that really except like at a wedding.
For a minute, he mentions blisters after, so I don't know.
Must have been doing some serious line dancing to have that.
And apparently he sent her on her way on her
own to do that. With her girlfriends. He didn't want
to do that anymore. So, I mean there are all
sorts of things in life that are like that. As
(21:46):
a kid, eating liver one time was enough for me.
It was one of those It was like, Mom, I
don't really want to eat that. She's, oh, it's good
for you people. The liver is good. My mom used
to feed me liver. You need some liver and onions.
I was like, no, hell no, I don't think I
need that. So what is it he tried once, regretted immediately,
or like, I'm not doing that again if I can
avoid it. If I won three seven four nine, seven thousand,
(22:07):
eight hundred the Big One, there's no question that there's
a lot of stuff like that that are out there.
And here's something that I've not tried. And it used
to be called I think it's the Sears Tower in Chicago,
and I do not know what it's called.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Now.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Somebody bought the building or bought the naming rights. I
have no clue, but I know that they have an
observation deck. Now it's not just like going up the top.
But as I understand it, and I have not done it,
but I was told that it's like a like a
glass incased thing. You can sort of step out and
sort of look down. And I know a guy and
(22:44):
his wife who went there. She was fine, and my
buddy lost his. He just freaked out and basically had
to be pulled back because he was paralyzed. I guess
with fear overstimulation, because it is a weird mental thing.
When you see that, it doesn't look like anything should
be holding you up in your hundreds and hundreds of
feet above becoming stuff on the ground. Who wants to
(23:07):
be stuff on the ground. It's tough five three, seven, four, nine,
eight hundred, the big one. That's the kind of thing
we're talking about one time and out, not going to
do it again on a Sunday, Sterling. Well, hopefully you'll
do this with me again. But you know what I
mean to Clipton, we go in, Matthew, then Randy and
room for you on seven hundred.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
W welw Matthew. How are you man?
Speaker 10 (23:25):
Hey Darlin, I'm good man.
Speaker 11 (23:27):
Uh yeah, your topic strang a bell with me. I
used to go down to the Red River Gorge a
lot with my buddies.
Speaker 10 (23:33):
We go camp and you know, just hanging out.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Yeah, good time.
Speaker 10 (23:35):
But yeah, a lot of good times. But I had
a couple buddies.
Speaker 11 (23:39):
Down there one year that love to go boldering like
rock climbing without any gear just so yeah, like cliffhanger
style and right, so we all, you know, we're all young.
Speaker 10 (23:53):
Guys, like kind of test the manhood situation. So these
guys want to climb.
Speaker 11 (23:57):
I think it's a courthouse rock. Well, you start going
up and the ascent is pretty stiege and it's a
little sketchy going up, but going down as a different animal,
so with no gear or anything, and if you make
one slip, you're going straight down a rock face too.
Speaker 10 (24:15):
I'm not a good situation.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
No, that's stuff on a rock. You don't want to
be that either, Yeah.
Speaker 10 (24:20):
Yeah, you don't want to be on that situation.
Speaker 11 (24:22):
So you know, that was one situation that I don't
think I'm ever going to try to put myself in
again if I have a choice. But I was actually
just down in Costa.
Speaker 10 (24:32):
Rica for a wedding another situation.
Speaker 12 (24:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (24:35):
We yeah, it's really nice and we go on out
on the CATAMARANZ one day and those are boats, so
there's three of us and we're way out in specific
you know, they take us way out an our ride,
our boat ride. So yeah, and then we go swimming
in the water, and you know, we're swimming back and
forth between the catamarans the waters.
Speaker 10 (24:54):
You know, we got scuba gear.
Speaker 11 (24:55):
All right, you know, snokming gear on and the water's
pretty clear, but we're in deep water. And you know,
I'm there just swimming between the catamarans. And then I
get home cert reality hit me again back in Ohio, Like, yeah,
I don't know if I would have the stones to
do that again if I I was just swimming in
the middle.
Speaker 10 (25:14):
Of Pacific Ocean. You never know what's out there watching it.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
No, I like to be at the top of the
food chain and you you could look like bank. I mean,
that's the I totally get that, and I appreciate the
call man. If you thank you for sharing and being
a part of the show.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Speaker 7 (25:26):
That.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Yeah, that's that's tough, and I've heard other people talk
about it, and it's spectacular in that type of situation,
but the water is deep. I don't like feeling like
if things went wrong, I couldn't swim back to shore.
That's a that's an unnerving, uh, circumstance in my head,
and I've gone scuba diving and I've come up done
like night dives, and like the light on one of
(25:49):
the boats sort of like burnout or was not. I
didn't see it at first, and I remember like panicking, going,
I I can barely see the shore and I don't
know where the hell my boat is. And it's because
I ran out of air too fast because I was
all geeked up about the stuff that lights up and
was glowing in the water. That's a maybe never again,
or at least trying to keep my mind right in
(26:11):
between to Mason and Lisa, Randy others and Andy coming up.
Lisa always liked when the ladies call, what have you
done one time? And you're like not doing that again?
Speaker 13 (26:20):
Sex?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Say what, I'm sorry?
Speaker 13 (26:24):
Sex?
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Sex? Yeah just one time?
Speaker 13 (26:30):
One time? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (26:31):
No, no, wait a minute.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
So you mean one time with one person and then
and you were like not with them again, or you
mean you tried it and you were like, I'm not
doing that again at all.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
I'm not doing that again.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Really, Uh, how did your your partner in that situation
take that? Did you tell them? Did they take it personally?
And it must have been awful bad. I hate to
hear that because it should be a good time.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
I never took their calls again.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Wow, how old are if you don't mind my asking, Well, I'm.
Speaker 13 (27:04):
Older now, we all are, hopefully I'm older now.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
But that was once was one and done for me
so forever. So now you're abstinate.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
I am very very happy about it.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
Well, happy about it is good. I mean, there's so
many wonderful things about that. Though, by having that interaction,
in that closeness. Have you talked to anybody about trying
to fix that. I mean, you obviously had comfort to
call and share that, but I mean that's a tough thing.
I mean, that's one of the good things in life.
If it's done right, even if it's bad, it's usually good.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Well I'm sure I'm not the only one out there.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Oh no, absolutely not. I'm not making fun. I just
I feel bad. I mean, I'm not offering to like
fix it for you. That would be altogether wrong. But
it just seems like that was a bad occurrent. It's
one of those things where you know, sometimes you get
got to get back up.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
On the bike. Pardon the punt.
Speaker 13 (28:03):
You know, Well, yeah, you might, but I think I
think it's overrated.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Well well, Lisa, I have many more questions. But it's
a daytime show, not a night time show. But perhaps
you call again sometime.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I will have you on.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
I appreciate you sharing that, and I hope you can
find you know, maybe somebody will make it seem like
it's the right a good thing to be doing, you know.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
I mean I've seen movies and things like that. I
know you know, it's it's not for me.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
I understand. I hate to hear that.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
I kind of feel like maybe if you had the
right person in your life that made you feel right,
you know, because you might might like that.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
But anyway, we'll take care of y'all.
Speaker 4 (28:45):
Think there. Yeah, everybody thinks they're the right person, right.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Well, I don't know about that. I rarely do.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
But I was raised with genetics and then learning that I,
you know, have a low self opinion. I'm not that guy.
But but there are there are a lot of people
who maybe think that that is the case.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
But uh, I just so there are.
Speaker 13 (29:04):
People, Okay, want me, but there are people out there
that are as they're not having. They may have had
more than one occurrence but are ye not having having
relations right now?
Speaker 1 (29:15):
No, No, I totally get that. I respect that. I
don't mean to be little you. I'm just saying that.
It's one of those things you don't hear very often.
So maybe maybe over time you'll change your mind or
something and maybe find somebody that you're deep in like
or lust with or love with whatever there maybe I
hope so well, you sound great, Lisa, callback anytime. I'd
love to talk to you about anything else, but certainly this,
(29:36):
maybe we can revisit and get more involved.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Maybe we can find you the right partner.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
What is the right What would you consider the right partner?
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Someone who makes you feel good and maybe want you,
you want to hang out with and be with.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
That's all.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
I have friends. Oh no, I have friends that I
hang out with that we have a good time. But
I don't think having relations no.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
No, no, no, no, that's just another layer to a relationship.
That's an intimate thing. But no, of course you can
still have relationships and friends and everything else that goes
with that.
Speaker 13 (30:06):
Yeah, absolutely, yeah, I have lots of I have lots
of friends, and some of them aren't involved in.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
That and this sexual aspect of course, hang out.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I have a lot of friends that I don't have
sex with too, So don't feel bad. I mean, you know,
it's every friendship is. I mean, I love Alex Egan,
but I'm not having sex with that guy.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
It's just not happening, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (30:27):
I do attract a lot of people. I think it's
kind of kind of like it's like my personality and
my to see you and all that. I do attract people.
But and then I maintain friendships and I think the
(30:49):
other people there's some people that want probably get to
know me in a middle further that way. I'm not
maybe something going on. I'm not attracted. I haven't really
been attracted to someone to make me change my mind.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
I got you, Well, maybe one day out of the blue,
you're out getting a cup of coffee, gassing up the car,
spending too much on fuel and you don't want to
do and then you may see somebody and they'll knock
your socks off and you're like, holy crap, and then
you just never know. So I wish you the best
and that you sound happy, and I appreciate you sharing that.
Thank you so much for being a part of the
show and listening and I hope we catch up again soon. Okay, Yeah,
(31:28):
have a great day, you too, take care of yourself, Jerry, Joe, Andy,
others coming up.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
I think we can do a little bit right.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
It's a one fifteen inside pitch Star because it's a
two to fifteen first pitch, we'll carry this over. I
don't normally do that, but boy, what about that sex
one time?
Speaker 5 (31:43):
Nah?
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Whoever didn't treat her rive all. I'm saying new straight away,
your chance to get interactive? What have you done once?
And we're like, nope, not doing that again. It's a
Sunday Stirling where the Reds play home with the rech
seven hundred WLW, Cincinnati.
Speaker 14 (31:57):
I can describe the taste of the waters of a
pure mountain stream, but it's something you should experience yourself.
I can tell you of the man and his message,
Bill Cunningham. It's something you should experience yourself, Bill Cummingham.
(32:18):
Tomorrow at noon, seven hundred wl W.
Speaker 5 (32:24):
Keep lifting for the next chance to win.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
You're a week read's baseball in the distance. They're in
Saint Louis. They're going to try to salvage one of
those games before they get out of town. It's not
been a good trip to Saint Louis on the west
bank of the Mighty Mississippi for our Cincinnati Wretch. I'll
set that up with the RNL carriers inside pitch coming
up in about six or seven minutes. I think if
(32:47):
my basic mad skills are right, I didn't go to
like a Butler, like a Lance.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
I went to Wright State.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
So you know, we were talking before the news about
things that you may have done one time in life
and then we're like, nope, not doing that again. And
for whatever reason, I talked about raw oyster eating and
the mass quantities moderation is key, bungee jumping, somebody else
talking about having a kid. We heard Lisa talk about
(33:12):
some love in one time and then she's through with it.
Into your chance to get interactive. We're do some calls
people have been holding on and if we can get
you in two, five, one, three, seven, four, ninety seven thousand,
eight hundred, the big one that's the number one at
the end and talkback. I Hurt Radio app click on
the microphone, Lee, who's been holding the longest. Let's get
to Arlington, Andy than Joe and Jerry in room for
you on seven hundred w welw Andy, how are you
(33:34):
appreciate you being on the show?
Speaker 2 (33:35):
What did you do one time? And we're like, nope,
no more of that, sir.
Speaker 9 (33:39):
I'm doing great, sir.
Speaker 12 (33:41):
This was about thirty years ago.
Speaker 9 (33:44):
A bunch of people from high school, we're probably between
the ages of twenty six and thirty one. We decided, Hey,
we're going to meet down at the park Saturday afternoon
and play tackle football. It was the best time ever.
We had a great time. Everybody woke up Sunday morning.
(34:06):
Everybody was the same morn never doing that ever again.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
And why is that?
Speaker 5 (34:14):
Because we couldn't move?
Speaker 2 (34:20):
I got you.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
So you were beaten and battered by play. Yeah, that's
like my friends, we were dumb a couple of times
we play tackle in the street. I'm like, you guys
are insane. Yeah, that was a one time scenario for
me too.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
Andy, thank you, Uh, thankfully our rocky boyman with that
Super Bowl ring he kept playing. So that's a good
thing to Newcastle, Indiana. Wondering at Indiana like John Mellencampa
of course, Jim uh, Jim Scott and uh well so
many others like Larry Bird and Joe, what's going on here?
Were stirling on the Big One? What'd you do once?
And we're like, no, I'm great, I gotta sort of
(34:53):
keep it a.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Little blow wote.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Now you gotta all that time to and forget that
this is you know, kids in the room and talking
and just not necessarily the best of choices in that scenario.
So that's something you'll do once and never again. So
thank you for holding on to for doing that. But
we try to keep it clean and a wholesome family
(35:16):
kind of entertainment situation, don't you know, one time and
done or otherwise? Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven,
eight hundred The Big One your chance to get interactive.
A couple of minutes left before the RN carriers inside
pitch reg and Cardinals getting at it. I'm still mystified
by it. But my buddy, they've not yet adopted. I
mentioned this he and his wife, and his wife was like, uh,
(35:38):
just the kid won and then on to the next one.
So they've stuck with that. We'll see if the adoption happens.
But she was through with it after that experience. I
still don't understand what was so much recreational drug use
when you actually have a good reason to take some
drugs to numb the pain of birthing a baby. I
think most guys that take that every single time. But
(36:01):
that's the difference between women and men. I suppose let's
get to Chris here on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 12 (36:06):
What do you know? Hey, how you doing?
Speaker 2 (36:09):
I'm good, I'm good.
Speaker 5 (36:10):
What have you done?
Speaker 2 (36:11):
One time? And then we're like, m that was not
that's not for me.
Speaker 12 (36:17):
I did pay Odi.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Oh, I've heard stories.
Speaker 14 (36:21):
I am.
Speaker 12 (36:22):
Well, I'm not a drug guy. First of all, I'm
a social drinker.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
I was never a drug guy.
Speaker 12 (36:29):
But one time I'm from the West West coast, so
we got a hold of some and we.
Speaker 5 (36:36):
Boiled it up.
Speaker 12 (36:36):
You boil it up in water and then you drink it,
and it's supposed to be this fun, happy, little two
hour trip. Well, first of all, you get violently ill
for the first half hour after you drink it, and
then you feel like you're going crazy.
Speaker 5 (36:53):
I was running around the desert.
Speaker 12 (36:55):
We all were freaking out wondering when this was going
to end, and I said about three or four hours.
So it was pretty much the most terrifying three or four.
Speaker 5 (37:04):
Hours of my life.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Wow, And let me just tell you you were like
the best say no to drugs, ad besides the egg
and the skillet, which was always bewatering to me as
a kid. And I talked to a guy when I
lived in Nevada, a guy I worked with for a minute,
and he talked about it being like a religious experience
and going out there was some type of healer or
someone to like guide him. Did you have someone guiding
(37:28):
you or you guys just ate it and then roamed
around in the desert looking for turtles or whatever else.
Speaker 12 (37:33):
Well, we had one guy that didn't do it. He
was the guy that was going to watch out for
us during the experience.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
Sure, and he boiled it up.
Speaker 12 (37:42):
And when we drank it and it takes it back,
like I said, you get violent, heel and you throw
up for the first half.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Hour and then not a selling point, by the way, no,
not at all.
Speaker 12 (37:52):
It tastes terrible. But when the trip finally starts. He
I was expecting because I was never a drug person.
I didn't do acid, I didn't do any of that stuff.
And I said, I want to see the cool lights
in the desert. I'm from Arizona, so I wanted to
see the cool lights and everything.
Speaker 5 (38:06):
Well, it wasn't that.
Speaker 12 (38:07):
I mean, it was just like you hear in the movies.
It was I saw devils and I saw cars coming
out with me. It was pretty much the most terrific
four hours I've ever spent.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
Well, Chris, I can completely understand the one and done
for you when it comes to the peote. Thank you
for sharing. I appreciate you doing it and glad you're
listening and being a part of the show as well.
All Right, that's it, let's shift gears, let's kick the
door open. It's time for the RNL Carriers Inside Pitch.
Speaker 6 (38:31):
The following is a special sports presentation on seven hundred

that's gone.

Red's getting ready to get at it this afternoon in
Saint Louis. They have lost the first two of this
(40:05):
weekend series against the Cardinals NL Central rivals, and it's
been a very challenging situation. Reds were effectively pounded on
Friday night at ten three loss. I'm trying to be positive,
but it's difficult. On the top of the first on
(40:25):
Friday night they scored three cards, came back to score
two immediately and the third and the bottom of the
third they scored again and then get in the fifth
and then sixth and the sixth. It made a ten
to three, and that was painful and ugly and bad.
Last night, the Reds came back Cardinals after the bottom
of the second were leading three to nothing, and then
the Reds scored three in the top of the third,
(40:46):
and I'm like, all right, they're with it. Then they
scored two in the top of the fourth. I'm like, okay,
they're ahead by two.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
This is good.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Cards, like, we don't quit bottom of the six or
bottom of the fifth. They score again, and at that
point then they're down one run and they're scoreless for
another two winnings. Reds can't get it done on the
top of the eighth. At the bottom of the eighth,
Cards score two. I was trying to be positive. This
doesn't seem very positive. I know Alex Egan was producing
shaking his head at me. I'm sorry. It ends up
(41:14):
being a six to five final for the Reds. Mal
takes the loss and they couldn't get it done the
top of the night. So now let's forget about all that.
Let's try to be positive.
Speaker 5 (41:25):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
I've got the injury news to get to in a
whole lot of other stuff before the Reds, who are
at this point, you know, looking to do what they
can to better their circumstance. They are two games back
in the wild Card, which I know it's only June seventh.
Why are you talking about that? Because they're eight and
a half back right now in the NL Central. That's
why they're two games back of the Cubbies. There are
(41:49):
two games back of the Pitchburgh Pirates, so usually fade,
but they're hanging at this point. They're five, let's see,
five games out of first of the Cardinals at this point,
and the Reds three and a half behind them. This
is a weekend where they could have picked up three
to help themselves in the NL Central, but it hasn't
happened yet. Today they hope to hold on and actually
at least salvage one, so they only drop one game
(42:10):
to the Cardinals before heading out West to play a
San Diego Padres team who were thirty three and thirty
and those guys in the NL West eight games out
what has looked to be the toughest division in baseball
to this point, with everyone above five hundred at least
until yesterday was the NL Central, but the Reds are
now one under five hundred, trying to get back to
(42:32):
that window of balance. Moving ahead, we'll see how it goes.
I did not mean to be the bearer of bad tidings,
but you know as well as I do that's the circumstance.
So let's get to a whole bunch of other stuff
and think positively about this situation in this matchup that
is coming up here a little later this afternoon on
the Big One with a two to fifteen first start,
(42:55):
and Matt Louder are Ret Louder, excuse me, on the
hill for the Reds and facing off against Michael McGreevy.
I'll give you the pitching matchup here in just a moment,
but let's start with home run leaders in the major leagues.
It's Big Sticks in the Big Leagues, brought to you
by Encore Technologies visit OnCore dot tech and by Midwestern
(43:15):
Plumbing Service Cincinnati Plumbers. You can count on five one
three seven five three zero zero fifty five one three seven,
five three zero zero five zero. All right, uh, as
you look at this point at the stats, Kyle Schwarber,
tri stater designated hitter for the Phillies, He's gone deep
(43:36):
twenty three times. He's slashing a two forty one batting average.
On base percentage three fifty eight slugging five eighty six
ops nine to forty four not bad in the American
League Houston Astros DH Yourdan Novarez gone deep twenty two times,
driven in forty eight three sixteen batting average four to thirty,
(43:56):
on base percentage six fifty four slugging. You add those
last two numbers up for those who don't understand the
slash and regularly. A neighbor kid just asked me the
other day, it's such a plain slash to me, I
was like the guitarist for Guns n' Roses, and he
just looked at me bewildered, too young to know better.
And you add those up, and that's how you end
up in a situation like your now Vearez with a
one point eight four OPS. Muna Taka Murakami, he's the
(44:21):
first baseman for the Chicago White Sox, is at twenty
home run so far. And you go a little bit
further down the list and you keep looking. You're like, well,
what about the Reds? You know, how is that working
out for the Reds. I'm gonna tell you, Ellie Da
La Cruz, who I'll talk about in the injured list
hopefully back sooner than later. He's gone deep twelve times,
So salth Stewart JJ Blede has gone deep ten times already.
(44:44):
Driving in twenty eight thirty nine runs better than for
salth Stewart, how spectacular, and to thirty seven for Ellie,
who hopefully is feeling better sooner than later. That is
effectively your big sticks in the big leagues. So that
has been taken care of a scoreboard. Look around the
this afternoon. What's underway already? It's that early warm up situation.
(45:05):
Nothing but getting ready sooner than later. I think of
the Peacock game and a bunch of others. NL Central rivals.
Pirates are on the road in Atlanta. Atlanta is just spectacular.
Speaker 2 (45:16):
Listen to this.
Speaker 1 (45:17):
They are forty four and twenty one. They're twenty three
games above five hundred. That is serious. Pirates are three
over and they'll get it on a little bit later.
The Phillies are home against the White Sox in Philadelphia.
They'll play a bit later. Yankees are home in the
Bronx against the Red Sox. Obviously a storied rivalry there,
(45:40):
but there's ten games difference between those two teams. Yankees
are thirty seven and twenty six. The Red Sox, struggling
twenty seven and thirty five, made a manager's change early
on and they're just still trying to find their way.
Blue Jays are home in Toronto taking on another pair
of Birds, the Orioles so Oriols Blue Jays later, Tigers
and Marin in Detroit. The Marlins are in Miami taking
(46:04):
on the Rays to Sea Creatures getting it on the
Devil Rays and the Marlins. That's coming up a little
bit later. Astros in the A's Athletics, who by the way,
actually have one home series in their new place, Las Vegas,
sooner than later, but they're on the road in Houston,
playing regularly their home games in Sacramento. But Las Vegas
(46:27):
will get a little taste of what Major League Baseball
is coming up in a short couple of weeks. The
Twins and the Royals after two to ten, are going
to get it on. The Rangers and the Guardians playing
in Arlington. Cleveland thirty seven and twenty nine on the year,
having a pretty good season so far, Rangers a couple
under five hundred and thirty one and thirty three. The
(46:48):
Rockies are hosting the Milwaukee Brewers, and they are thirty
nine and twenty three in leading the NL Central by
five games over the Cardinals, six and a half over
the Pirates, same for the Cobbies, and eight and a
half over the Reds. Brewer's doing all right. It'd be
nice if they could start losing. It would be nice
if the twenty four and forty one Rockies team could
(47:08):
somehow find a way to help themselves and help the Reds.
But be nice if the Reds could help themselves. So
we'll see how that comes up a little later against
those Cards. Diamondbacks are home in the Desert of Phoenix,
taken on the Nationals after three point fifteen. Dodgers are
home in Los Angeles against the Angels, battle of the
LA teams, twenty four and forty one Angels, and on
(47:32):
the opposite end of the spectrum, the Dodgers are forty
two and twenty three, leading the way in the NL
West by eight games over the Padres. That's where the
Reds go next to San Diego, eight and a half
over the aforementioned Diamondbacks. And get this, the Giants are
already sixteen games back. It's not even yet July, so
there's time for him to catch up. It could happen,
(47:53):
Alex Egan, it could eighteen last He's like no chance.
Eighteen back. The Rockies are of the dodge at this point,
so hopefully the Padres can wobble a bit. They're over
five hundred, but the Reds win today, get a little momentum,
go to San Diego, soak up some Southern California sun,
eat some fish tacos, and go to work to start
the week. We'll see how it goes, but we don't
(48:14):
know yet. Padres are home and they got the Mets
after four to ten. Today Mets are twenty eight and
thirty six, Padres thirty three and thirty And to Sunday
Night Baseball. It's the Cubbies on the North side of
Chicago hosting these San Francisco Giants later on tonight.
Speaker 2 (48:30):
So there you go.
Speaker 1 (48:32):
That's a look at today's scoreboard as it stands. Were
mostly the schedule. Frankly brought to you by Branstetter's kangaroof Hometown,
proud veteran owned and family operated for twenty eight years.
Visit go kanga dot net. They hop to it quick break,
we'll come back. We'll see who's hot. In the big leagues.
We'll set up today's pitching matchup, give you today's starting lineups,
(48:53):
more game notes, the injury report, and who's rolling with
our Reds After a break on the RNL carriers in
side pitch at Sterling seven hundred WLW the spring rains
to fit the tri State is your
Hurling stepping in a beautiful day, unless you're stuck waiting
seven to ten minutes give or take southbound on seventy
one coming up to Montgomery Road with that construction taking place,
two lanes are blocked on the right side. You heard
that with the Freddie Hopkins before, so just know that's
(00:20):
what the deal is and you want to get over
the left. I had to navigate that coming in while
listening to ken Brew. I'm like, people, come on, get over.
I'm trying to get off here. Everybody else trying to
get to Kenwood Town Center. I'm trying to get here
to this place. Alex Egan producing sterling, hanging out taking
up the Reds baseball. They'll try to salvage one game
out of their trip to San Francisco before jetting off
to the Land of Paradise and fish cocgos in San Diego.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
But they got at least a win today. That would
be nice.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
More on that with the Inside Pitch last night, I
had a guy on the show who is an expert
in maritime and seafare issues of security and law. His
name's Ian Ralby, is one the head guy and CEO
of ir Concilium and globally known for the things I
just mentioned in security issues and in law when it
(01:10):
comes to piracy, and a whole lot of other stuff
you heard in the news. Also, obviously the ceasefires not
very ceasefire like going on with the issue of Iran,
the straight of Horn moves in the Persian Gulf. Our
gas prices are a bit lower than they have been.
There are concerns about what comes if this does not break,
the blockade does not end. I asked him also here
(01:32):
to start in this conversation we had about the twenty
thousand plus men and women working on these cargo container
ships as well as those carrying oil tank filled up
or waiting to be filled up to help get some
of this twenty percent or so of petroleum products, including
refined stuff that we need here for like motor oil
(01:53):
and stuff going. And this is what he said last
night on the Big One. It is Ian Ralby with
Star on seven hundred WW.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Yeah, it's been a tough few months for them. The
uncertainty both about when they're going to move and what's
going to happen to them has been I think crippling
for some of them. They have faced all kinds of
threats including you know, kinetic hits from drones, from missiles.
There have been fires on board a lot of ships.
We've seen an inordinate number of seafares be killed in
(02:23):
a short period of time as compared to other conflicts.
And at the same time, they don't know what the
future holds, and so they're running out of food, medicine,
all kinds of things. So it's spent a grim time
for the men and women who actually carry the ninety
percent of world trade that happens by sea. But there
has been some relief recently in the form of Iran's
Persian Gulf Straight Authority, which is this combination of permitting
(02:47):
and toll scheme that unfortunately seems to be taking hold.
And that I say unfortunately because it spells trouble for
the future of not only maritime commerce but the global economy.
And not only is Iran involved, but the Omanis are
seemingly interested in considering this to be a potentially permanent fixture.
(03:07):
So we have seen about three hundred ships get out,
but they have gotten out under very very concerning circumstances.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
The CEO of I are Concilium doctor Ian ralbie Hens
I are a short bus rider. But I think that's
how that comes together with Stirling seven hundred dol well w.
So these vessels got through by paying tolls and being
led through these mind waters in that bottleneck area in
the US let them out or is this like being
(03:34):
done sort of on the download? You know about it,
now we know about it. I can't understand how if
it's blockaded, they're letting them through like that.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yeah, it's a confusing picture, to say the least. The
blockade technically applies to ships that have called at Iranian
ports or are in some ways availing themselves of iran
As in jurisdiction. But these ships seem to have sailed
through Iranian waters and have been allowed to go out
or in, depending on which direction they're heading.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
It's a little bit unclear, you know.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
The part of the problem with this whole conflict is
that the information space is as important as the physical space,
and both parties seem to enjoy a degree of deception.
The Iranians have made outright bold, very very false claims,
but equally on our side, unfortunately, we've said some things
that have proved just not to be true. So it's
hard to make sense of what's rhetoric, what's reality, and
(04:24):
really what's going on. But there has been some movement,
it is limited, and the general thrust of it is
that most of the energy supplies, most of the goods
that are supposed to be coming both out of the
Gulf and into the Gulf to serve other states are
just stuck. And so it's continuing to put huge pressure
on global energy supplies and the global economy. And we're
(04:47):
getting towards a critical point in the next few weeks
where we're going to start running out of some of
the key supplies, and in the US that translates into
some strange things because even though we're not very reliant
on the Middle Eastern oil, do have complicated supply chains
that mean that we're seeing about a forty percent shortage
in motor oil. So synthetic oils in the United States
(05:08):
are becoming a real problem.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
So we've got to pay attention.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Because the cost of just going to get your oil
changed to jiffy lube I could go up quite a
lot if they can't access that supply.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Well, that's quite disturbing. Sterling on seven hundred WLW A
doctor Ian Rolby, he's the boss of I R Concilium.
He's a guy in the know when it comes to
security issues, maritime concerns globally, when it comes to getting around.
We've talked piracy in the past. This is a next
level situation with a straight horn moves closed.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Ian.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
You mentioned the issue of food and medicine, and I
had asked you a time or two back when we
had you on the show, and we appreciate you making
yourself available. I know you're like a very You're a
Fiji for those who don't know, and you sound like
you're across the Montgomery Road here, which is tremendous. So
I appreciate you making time while you're in paradise in
(06:00):
the midst of this. But I had asked about servicing
these vessels and the twenty thousand people that are there,
even though some of these small quantity these vessels have
gotten in and out of there. What does that mean
for food service, in water that's fresh, in medicines for
all these crews, who is servicing them? Are they able
to go to any ports in the Persian golfer in
(06:22):
that area or are they literally just in limbo, sitting
there anchored, waiting for whatever comes next.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Well, that depends a bit on the ship owner. A
lot of the owners are really trying to do their
best to look after everybody and make sure that they
are getting access to everything, but there's a degree to
which that is just not as easy and possible as
anybody would like. The Seafair's charities and wellness associations are
doing an incredible job, and they're being looked after better
(06:50):
than they have in the past in some situations. The
COVID crisis, for example, was really really grim for the seafares.
Many of the hundreds of thousands worldwide we're stuck out
at sea for more than seventeen months without being able
to come to shore, and another three hundred to four
hundred thousand were stuck on land. So this is a
slightly less awful situation, but we compound the problem with
(07:13):
not only having access to goods, supplies, water, food, medicine,
but also the issue of just the constant stress of
not knowing whether there's a missile or drone coming. Because
we have seen ships just in the last week hit
in un Cussar in Iraq, we've seen them hit in Kuwait,
We've seen them hit in other parts of the gulf
that are not directly part of the immediate vicinity of
(07:34):
the conflict, and so you could just be sitting minding
your own business waiting for something to happen, and then
something really terrible does happen. And that is really a
difficult position for men and women who are not trained
for this. But I do want to make one comment,
if I may. I got to Fiji last night. I'm
here for work, and the cab driver who picked me
up from the airport had to pull over and get
some gas and he said, you know, the cost has
(07:58):
gone up more than double for his fuel costs here.
So we are on the other side of the planet
as far away from the conflict as could be, and
everybody is talking about it because you know, his comment
was he wished Americans cared more about the lowly people
in other parts of the world, and I promised him
we did. But the problem is that it's just a
crippling cost that does not seem to be heading for
(08:19):
any relief anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
CEO of ir Concilium Ian Rolby, was stirling seven hundred WLW.
How does the issue of payment going through there? Because
we discussed this early on, they all will get tolls.
Even the President of the United States mentioned, well, maybe
they get on that too, but then that's quieted down
subsequently because they say that's not a good plan. But
this is a major concern, and you mentioned it not
(08:43):
just being for the Strait of Horror moves but elsewhere.
So is the concern then that other nation states, rogue
or otherwise or even pirates in some fashion would then
start holding vessels in some fashion hostage like this and
waiting for payment beyond just.
Speaker 5 (08:59):
Can you hear me? Yes? Can okay?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
So you know, the whole Iranian regime is actually fairly
well organized when it comes to bureaucracy, and what they've
essentially done is taken a bureaucratic approach to handling this.
So ships have a very clear process by which they
have to, you know, send messages with all kinds of
details requesting permission, and the permission is the granted or denied,
(09:23):
and then a payment process is offered to them, either
through cryptocurrency or Chinese you on. And the Chinese have
seemingly become the backers for this, and so this is
a really concerning trend. In addition to the implications for
maritime security, regarding the overall efforts that we've seen from China,
(09:44):
Russia and other countries to try to get the global
economy off of the US dollar and outside of the
regulation of financial institutions in the United States. And so
we are seeing exactly that taking shape, where the payments
are are coming through mechanism that don't involve any.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
Kind of nexus to the US.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
And so we could see this be formalized and take
hold not only here but potentially elsewhere if something isn't
done to really say, hey, hang on a minute, the
cost of goods has to stay low for everybody around
the world, no matter who it is, and this will
only increase that cost and decrease the accessibility of goods.
(10:22):
And if we do this, we're going to see a
real change in how global trade and the global economy functions.
So that's what's happening at the moment. But this seems
to be attractive to other parties, including the Omanis, who
seem to continue to negotiate for the potential of a
joint scheme on this Persian called trade authority.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
And we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
And I know we're showing Tom, I appreciate you making
yourself available in relation to the current situation with all
these vessels, how many are stuck and if in fact
hostilities ended tomorrow and it opened up and they weren't,
you know, charging people and having to go through that
rigamarole to get through and out of there or into
(11:01):
that space, how long are we talking for them just
to either get loaded up with whatever they have to
load up with, or if they've already dumped it off
and they're on to the next place, for this stuff
to get moving, because, as you mentioned, reserves for petroleum
products like motor oil, et cetera, and a whole host
of other things are months and months out and we're
not even yet really feeling the pinch on that as
(11:22):
reserves have gone so low exactly.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
So it's a good question and as tough one to answer.
So it looks like it's about sixteen hundred ships or
so that that need to get moving, but no two
ships are quite the same, and so what we have
to also pay attention is what kind of ships they
are and what is moving. So we have a mix
of container vessels, roll on, roll off vessels, tankers of
(11:46):
different sorts. But when it comes to the Gulf, the
key The key goods are obviously energy supplies, but even
in that space, we've got some diversity because you have
crude oil, you have refined fuel products, and we also
have other gas products, both liquified petroleum gas and liquified
natural gas, the latter of which requires a specific type
(12:08):
of ship, with a specific type of terminal and specific routings.
That's going to take a long time to get back
up and running because so much of the infrastructure around
it has been damaged, and so we are looking at
a timeline of about five years for the Katari gas
fields to come back online. That's a real problem, and
that's thirty five percent of some of the largest gas
fields in the world offline for a number of years.
(12:30):
So even if everything reopens today, we aren't going to
see a magical resumption of you know, two to three
dollars gasoline. We're going to see a gradual process where
it may actually continue to go up even with the.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
Of the Somehow, the.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Price and the accessibility of oil and gas supplies have
not been in parallel. In other words, the price is
artificially low because everybody is hopeful that this conflict will
be resolved.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
But from a.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Supply standpoint, it is pretty concerning and it will be
for quite a while.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
So I would imagine a freight rate to ship whatever
it is aboard a vessel and getting it where it goes,
not just where we're talking about with the Straight of
Horror moves and the Persian Gulf, but globally that is
going up. If it hasn't already, probably will go up substantially.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
We're actually looking at a weird situation. Russian sanctioned bunker fuel,
which was given sanctions relief temporarily, has kind of helped
keep those freight rates lower. So again that artificial pricing
is partly because of de sanctioning Russian entities. So we're
in a strange position where everything is kind of temporary
(13:45):
and the future is extremely uncertain.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
What if I not asked before we let you bounce
into the rest of your working time in a place
that the most of us imagine going at some point
before we kick the bucket Fiji, and there you go.
We lost him last night. I mean, he was okay,
but as good as he sounded talking to Ian Ralby.
By the way, I are concilium CEO about all the
issues of the Strait of hormones, oil issues, cufares, all
(14:09):
those tankers that are stuck there, that's an insane number
of them. Frankly, it's hard to process that there's going
to be that many, sixteen hundred ships or whatever and
nearly twenty thousand people there. It's crazy. But he was fine,
just we lost our connection and then by the time
it was we couldn't deal with that. So a good
talking to him last night. Not a very promising situation,
(14:30):
just the same. Ir Concilium is where you can find
out more online about Ian and what he does. Doctor
Ralby straight away your twelve thirty report, the latest on

Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Here we are a Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I almost said Saturday because it kind of feels like
it's Saturday, but I worked last night. It's all just weird.
I hope you're doing all right. Seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Sorry.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
I was just thinking about the Mississippi and the West
Bank where the Arch to the West is in Saint Louis,
and the Reds taking on those Cardinals later this afternoon.
Inside pitch, we'll get you ready for it. Red's trying
to salvage one game for it's a getaway day for them,
and the brooms are out the Cardinals. I'd like to
make them well. I would like the Reds to make
(17:06):
them put them away and then get out of town
for a win and then on to south southern California.
We'll see how that goes. Get better ground to cover.
This is a weird topic. I wanted to try to
have some fun and not just all serious, and this
is interesting. I think we have a topic here of
good conversation. I was talking to Alex Egan off the
air about this. I have some other people I've known
(17:27):
and sort of kick around ideas and stuff. Sometimes it's
just a crazy conversation we have maybe over beers or
around a bonfire group text with my buddies, and I'm like, well,
there's something that's weird, and this is one of those
where I think everybody can get involved. Young, old male, female, richpoort,
doesn't matter. We've all had experiences in our life. The
question is this, What have you tried just one time
(17:49):
that you were like never doing that again. You immediately
were thinking I should have reevaluated before doing this particular thing.
Whatever it is, it doesn't matter. Friend of mine's wife
said after their first kid, and they were all gung
ho about having babies, and she did it the natural way.
(18:09):
Where As a guy and I understand their dangers of
drugs and the epidural or whatever else, maybe get into
the baby. But of all the recreational ways that people
like to alter their state of mind legally or otherwise,
the idea that your birthing a baby physically. Maybe it's
(18:30):
just because I'm a guy and we are a whimps
when it comes to pain compared to women in our lives.
But she says after the first child, and she told
him I was there shortly after she was like, there
is no way in hell I'm doing this again. We
can adopt. We stop at one. And I was like,
I totally get it. My buddy was a little upset
about it. Something that's not quite as severe as birthing
(18:53):
a baby is eating raw oysters, which I've done back
in my days in Dayton working rock radio, like at
TUE and Wazoo. Before that, they had a charitable event
at jay Seafood, which was a great spot still there
in the Oregon district, I think, and they would have
I can't remember which charities it was for. I want
to say it was like MS, or maybe it was
(19:15):
muscular dystrophe. I'm not sure, both worthy causes of people
I know that have suffered from both of those. And
it was an oyster eating contest and they had them
on the half shell, big plates full of them, and
you were supposed to eat as many as you could,
like in five minutes or something. And I've told this
story before and I thought, Okay, I'm gonna do this
for charity. There was no difference whether I ate one
(19:35):
oyster or whether I ate two hundred oysters. But I figured,
if I'm there and I'm going to compete, I want
to win, because that's how I was raised, and there
are no ties, and I don't want to be a loser.
And I pounded down like ninety nine or one hundred
and one the first year. Then I did it again
the second year because I'm a slow learner, and all
(19:55):
I can recall is pounding down or slurping down covered
raw oysters or oysters on the high half shell, and
then later that afternoon feeling like a hundred of them
just sort of floating in my belly, the reevaluation of
maybe my portion could have been smaller. I wasn't even
a competitor. I wasn't a gamer. There were people who
(20:16):
did like two hundred, two hundred and fifty of these.
They were professional oysters, slurping down fools that anytime that
ever comes up again and I'll eat a couple of them.
But for a few years after that, anybody like, hey,
you want some oysters, I gotta take a pass. That
was like a one time deal that I did twice.
I know somebody else who did the bungee jumping thing,
(20:38):
a friend of mine, very extreme sports oriented, and apparently
there was a bit of a give to the cord
and they came within what they described as like alarm's
length away from hitting like the bottom or near the
water where they were. It was somewhere like over West
Virginia or something, and they were like, hell no, never
doing that again.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
So I totally get that.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
So I'm wondering, what have you done one time that
you immediately regreted and you're like, I'm never doing it again.
Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven, eight hundred the
big one. You can talk back the iHeartRadio app by
clicking on the microphone. It's it's one of those things.
It's it's pretty funny. Oh well, this is good Ken,
but it's not our ken Brew At Sterling Radio DM.
Just now it says line dancing. Did it to please
(21:21):
his wife? Never again?
Speaker 2 (21:25):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I've never done that really except like at a wedding.
For a minute, he mentions blisters after, so I don't know.
Must have been doing some serious line dancing to have that.
And apparently he sent her on her way on her
own to do that. With her girlfriends. He didn't want
to do that anymore. So, I mean there are all
sorts of things in life that are like that. As
(21:46):
a kid, eating liver one time was enough for me.
It was one of those It was like, Mom, I
don't really want to eat that. She's, oh, it's good
for you people. The liver is good. My mom used
to feed me liver. You need some liver and onions.
I was like, no, hell no, I don't think I
need that. So what is it he tried once, regretted immediately,
or like, I'm not doing that again if I can
avoid it. If I won three seven four nine, seven thousand,
(22:07):
eight hundred the Big One, there's no question that there's
a lot of stuff like that that are out there.
And here's something that I've not tried. And it used
to be called I think it's the Sears Tower in Chicago,
and I do not know what it's called.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Now.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Somebody bought the building or bought the naming rights. I
have no clue, but I know that they have an
observation deck. Now it's not just like going up the top.
But as I understand it, and I have not done it,
but I was told that it's like a like a
glass incased thing. You can sort of step out and
sort of look down. And I know a guy and
(22:44):
his wife who went there. She was fine, and my
buddy lost his. He just freaked out and basically had
to be pulled back because he was paralyzed. I guess
with fear overstimulation, because it is a weird mental thing.
When you see that, it doesn't look like anything should
be holding you up in your hundreds and hundreds of
feet above becoming stuff on the ground. Who wants to
(23:07):
be stuff on the ground. It's tough five three, seven, four, nine,
eight hundred, the big one. That's the kind of thing
we're talking about one time and out, not going to
do it again on a Sunday, Sterling. Well, hopefully you'll
do this with me again. But you know what I
mean to Clipton, we go in, Matthew, then Randy and
room for you on seven hundred.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
W welw Matthew. How are you man?
Speaker 10 (23:25):
Hey Darlin, I'm good man.
Speaker 11 (23:27):
Uh yeah, your topic strang a bell with me. I
used to go down to the Red River Gorge a
lot with my buddies.
Speaker 10 (23:33):
We go camp and you know, just hanging out.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Yeah, good time.
Speaker 10 (23:35):
But yeah, a lot of good times. But I had
a couple buddies.
Speaker 11 (23:39):
Down there one year that love to go boldering like
rock climbing without any gear just so yeah, like cliffhanger
style and right, so we all, you know, we're all young.
Speaker 10 (23:53):
Guys, like kind of test the manhood situation. So these
guys want to climb.
Speaker 11 (23:57):
I think it's a courthouse rock. Well, you start going
up and the ascent is pretty stiege and it's a
little sketchy going up, but going down as a different animal,
so with no gear or anything, and if you make
one slip, you're going straight down a rock face too.
Speaker 10 (24:15):
I'm not a good situation.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
No, that's stuff on a rock. You don't want to
be that either, Yeah.
Speaker 10 (24:20):
Yeah, you don't want to be on that situation.
Speaker 11 (24:22):
So you know, that was one situation that I don't
think I'm ever going to try to put myself in
again if I have a choice. But I was actually
just down in Costa.
Speaker 10 (24:32):
Rica for a wedding another situation.
Speaker 12 (24:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (24:35):
We yeah, it's really nice and we go on out
on the CATAMARANZ one day and those are boats, so
there's three of us and we're way out in specific
you know, they take us way out an our ride,
our boat ride. So yeah, and then we go swimming
in the water, and you know, we're swimming back and
forth between the catamarans the waters.
Speaker 10 (24:54):
You know, we got scuba gear.
Speaker 11 (24:55):
All right, you know, snokming gear on and the water's
pretty clear, but we're in deep water. And you know,
I'm there just swimming between the catamarans. And then I
get home cert reality hit me again back in Ohio, Like, yeah,
I don't know if I would have the stones to
do that again if I I was just swimming in
the middle.
Speaker 10 (25:14):
Of Pacific Ocean. You never know what's out there watching it.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
No, I like to be at the top of the
food chain and you you could look like bank. I mean,
that's the I totally get that, and I appreciate the
call man. If you thank you for sharing and being
a part of the show.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Speaker 7 (25:26):
That.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Yeah, that's that's tough, and I've heard other people talk
about it, and it's spectacular in that type of situation,
but the water is deep. I don't like feeling like
if things went wrong, I couldn't swim back to shore.
That's a that's an unnerving, uh, circumstance in my head,
and I've gone scuba diving and I've come up done
like night dives, and like the light on one of
(25:49):
the boats sort of like burnout or was not. I
didn't see it at first, and I remember like panicking, going,
I I can barely see the shore and I don't
know where the hell my boat is. And it's because
I ran out of air too fast because I was
all geeked up about the stuff that lights up and
was glowing in the water. That's a maybe never again,
or at least trying to keep my mind right in
(26:11):
between to Mason and Lisa, Randy others and Andy coming up.
Lisa always liked when the ladies call, what have you
done one time? And you're like not doing that again?
Speaker 13 (26:20):
Sex?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Say what, I'm sorry?
Speaker 13 (26:24):
Sex?
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Sex? Yeah just one time?
Speaker 13 (26:30):
One time? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (26:31):
No, no, wait a minute.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
So you mean one time with one person and then
and you were like not with them again, or you
mean you tried it and you were like, I'm not
doing that again at all.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
I'm not doing that again.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Really, Uh, how did your your partner in that situation
take that? Did you tell them? Did they take it personally?
And it must have been awful bad. I hate to
hear that because it should be a good time.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
I never took their calls again.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Wow, how old are if you don't mind my asking, Well, I'm.
Speaker 13 (27:04):
Older now, we all are, hopefully I'm older now.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
But that was once was one and done for me
so forever. So now you're abstinate.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
I am very very happy about it.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
Well, happy about it is good. I mean, there's so
many wonderful things about that. Though, by having that interaction,
in that closeness. Have you talked to anybody about trying
to fix that. I mean, you obviously had comfort to
call and share that, but I mean that's a tough thing.
I mean, that's one of the good things in life.
If it's done right, even if it's bad, it's usually good.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Well I'm sure I'm not the only one out there.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Oh no, absolutely not. I'm not making fun. I just
I feel bad. I mean, I'm not offering to like
fix it for you. That would be altogether wrong. But
it just seems like that was a bad occurrent. It's
one of those things where you know, sometimes you get
got to get back up.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
On the bike. Pardon the punt.
Speaker 13 (28:03):
You know, Well, yeah, you might, but I think I
think it's overrated.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Well well, Lisa, I have many more questions. But it's
a daytime show, not a night time show. But perhaps
you call again sometime.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I will have you on.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
I appreciate you sharing that, and I hope you can
find you know, maybe somebody will make it seem like
it's the right a good thing to be doing, you know.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
I mean I've seen movies and things like that. I
know you know, it's it's not for me.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
I understand. I hate to hear that.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
I kind of feel like maybe if you had the
right person in your life that made you feel right,
you know, because you might might like that.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
But anyway, we'll take care of y'all.
Speaker 4 (28:45):
Think there. Yeah, everybody thinks they're the right person, right.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Well, I don't know about that. I rarely do.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
But I was raised with genetics and then learning that I,
you know, have a low self opinion. I'm not that guy.
But but there are there are a lot of people
who maybe think that that is the case.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
But uh, I just so there are.
Speaker 13 (29:04):
People, Okay, want me, but there are people out there
that are as they're not having. They may have had
more than one occurrence but are ye not having having
relations right now?
Speaker 1 (29:15):
No, No, I totally get that. I respect that. I
don't mean to be little you. I'm just saying that.
It's one of those things you don't hear very often.
So maybe maybe over time you'll change your mind or
something and maybe find somebody that you're deep in like
or lust with or love with whatever there maybe I
hope so well, you sound great, Lisa, callback anytime. I'd
love to talk to you about anything else, but certainly this,
(29:36):
maybe we can revisit and get more involved.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Maybe we can find you the right partner.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
What is the right What would you consider the right partner?
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Someone who makes you feel good and maybe want you,
you want to hang out with and be with.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
That's all.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
I have friends. Oh no, I have friends that I
hang out with that we have a good time. But
I don't think having relations no.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
No, no, no, no, that's just another layer to a relationship.
That's an intimate thing. But no, of course you can
still have relationships and friends and everything else that goes
with that.
Speaker 13 (30:06):
Yeah, absolutely, yeah, I have lots of I have lots
of friends, and some of them aren't involved in.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
That and this sexual aspect of course, hang out.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I have a lot of friends that I don't have
sex with too, So don't feel bad. I mean, you know,
it's every friendship is. I mean, I love Alex Egan,
but I'm not having sex with that guy.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
It's just not happening, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (30:27):
I do attract a lot of people. I think it's
kind of kind of like it's like my personality and
my to see you and all that. I do attract people.
But and then I maintain friendships and I think the
(30:49):
other people there's some people that want probably get to
know me in a middle further that way. I'm not
maybe something going on. I'm not attracted. I haven't really
been attracted to someone to make me change my mind.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
I got you, Well, maybe one day out of the blue,
you're out getting a cup of coffee, gassing up the car,
spending too much on fuel and you don't want to
do and then you may see somebody and they'll knock
your socks off and you're like, holy crap, and then
you just never know. So I wish you the best
and that you sound happy, and I appreciate you sharing that.
Thank you so much for being a part of the
show and listening and I hope we catch up again soon. Okay, Yeah,
(31:28):
have a great day, you too, take care of yourself, Jerry, Joe, Andy,
others coming up.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
I think we can do a little bit right.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
It's a one fifteen inside pitch Star because it's a
two to fifteen first pitch, we'll carry this over. I
don't normally do that, but boy, what about that sex
one time?
Speaker 5 (31:43):
Nah?
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Whoever didn't treat her rive all. I'm saying new straight away,
your chance to get interactive? What have you done once?
And we're like, nope, not doing that again. It's a
Sunday Stirling where the Reds play home with the rech
seven hundred WLW, Cincinnati.
Speaker 14 (31:57):
I can describe the taste of the waters of a
pure mountain stream, but it's something you should experience yourself.
I can tell you of the man and his message,
Bill Cunningham. It's something you should experience yourself, Bill Cummingham.
(32:18):
Tomorrow at noon, seven hundred wl W.
Speaker 5 (32:24):
Keep lifting for the next chance to win.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
You're a week read's baseball in the distance. They're in
Saint Louis. They're going to try to salvage one of
those games before they get out of town. It's not
been a good trip to Saint Louis on the west
bank of the Mighty Mississippi for our Cincinnati Wretch. I'll
set that up with the RNL carriers inside pitch coming
up in about six or seven minutes. I think if
(32:47):
my basic mad skills are right, I didn't go to
like a Butler, like a Lance.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
I went to Wright State.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
So you know, we were talking before the news about
things that you may have done one time in life
and then we're like, nope, not doing that again. And
for whatever reason, I talked about raw oyster eating and
the mass quantities moderation is key, bungee jumping, somebody else
talking about having a kid. We heard Lisa talk about
(33:12):
some love in one time and then she's through with it.
Into your chance to get interactive. We're do some calls
people have been holding on and if we can get
you in two, five, one, three, seven, four, ninety seven thousand,
eight hundred, the big one that's the number one at
the end and talkback. I Hurt Radio app click on
the microphone, Lee, who's been holding the longest. Let's get
to Arlington, Andy than Joe and Jerry in room for
you on seven hundred w welw Andy, how are you
(33:34):
appreciate you being on the show?
Speaker 2 (33:35):
What did you do one time? And we're like, nope,
no more of that, sir.
Speaker 9 (33:39):
I'm doing great, sir.
Speaker 12 (33:41):
This was about thirty years ago.
Speaker 9 (33:44):
A bunch of people from high school, we're probably between
the ages of twenty six and thirty one. We decided, Hey,
we're going to meet down at the park Saturday afternoon
and play tackle football. It was the best time ever.
We had a great time. Everybody woke up Sunday morning.
(34:06):
Everybody was the same morn never doing that ever again.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
And why is that?
Speaker 5 (34:14):
Because we couldn't move?
Speaker 2 (34:20):
I got you.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
So you were beaten and battered by play. Yeah, that's
like my friends, we were dumb a couple of times
we play tackle in the street. I'm like, you guys
are insane. Yeah, that was a one time scenario for
me too.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
Andy, thank you, Uh, thankfully our rocky boyman with that
Super Bowl ring he kept playing. So that's a good
thing to Newcastle, Indiana. Wondering at Indiana like John Mellencampa
of course, Jim uh, Jim Scott and uh well so
many others like Larry Bird and Joe, what's going on here?
Were stirling on the Big One? What'd you do once?
And we're like, no, I'm great, I gotta sort of
(34:53):
keep it a.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Little blow wote.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Now you gotta all that time to and forget that
this is you know, kids in the room and talking
and just not necessarily the best of choices in that scenario.
So that's something you'll do once and never again. So
thank you for holding on to for doing that. But
we try to keep it clean and a wholesome family
(35:16):
kind of entertainment situation, don't you know, one time and
done or otherwise? Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven,
eight hundred The Big One your chance to get interactive.
A couple of minutes left before the RN carriers inside
pitch reg and Cardinals getting at it. I'm still mystified
by it. But my buddy, they've not yet adopted. I
mentioned this he and his wife, and his wife was like, uh,
(35:38):
just the kid won and then on to the next one.
So they've stuck with that. We'll see if the adoption happens.
But she was through with it after that experience. I
still don't understand what was so much recreational drug use
when you actually have a good reason to take some
drugs to numb the pain of birthing a baby. I
think most guys that take that every single time. But
(36:01):
that's the difference between women and men. I suppose let's
get to Chris here on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 12 (36:06):
What do you know? Hey, how you doing?
Speaker 2 (36:09):
I'm good, I'm good.
Speaker 5 (36:10):
What have you done?
Speaker 2 (36:11):
One time? And then we're like, m that was not
that's not for me.
Speaker 12 (36:17):
I did pay Odi.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Oh, I've heard stories.
Speaker 14 (36:21):
I am.
Speaker 12 (36:22):
Well, I'm not a drug guy. First of all, I'm
a social drinker.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
I was never a drug guy.
Speaker 12 (36:29):
But one time I'm from the West West coast, so
we got a hold of some and we.
Speaker 5 (36:36):
Boiled it up.
Speaker 12 (36:36):
You boil it up in water and then you drink it,
and it's supposed to be this fun, happy, little two
hour trip. Well, first of all, you get violently ill
for the first half hour after you drink it, and
then you feel like you're going crazy.
Speaker 5 (36:53):
I was running around the desert.
Speaker 12 (36:55):
We all were freaking out wondering when this was going
to end, and I said about three or four hours.
So it was pretty much the most terrifying three or four.
Speaker 5 (37:04):
Hours of my life.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Wow, And let me just tell you you were like
the best say no to drugs, ad besides the egg
and the skillet, which was always bewatering to me as
a kid. And I talked to a guy when I
lived in Nevada, a guy I worked with for a minute,
and he talked about it being like a religious experience
and going out there was some type of healer or
someone to like guide him. Did you have someone guiding
(37:28):
you or you guys just ate it and then roamed
around in the desert looking for turtles or whatever else.
Speaker 12 (37:33):
Well, we had one guy that didn't do it. He
was the guy that was going to watch out for
us during the experience.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
Sure, and he boiled it up.
Speaker 12 (37:42):
And when we drank it and it takes it back,
like I said, you get violent, heel and you throw
up for the first half.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Hour and then not a selling point, by the way, no,
not at all.
Speaker 12 (37:52):
It tastes terrible. But when the trip finally starts. He
I was expecting because I was never a drug person.
I didn't do acid, I didn't do any of that stuff.
And I said, I want to see the cool lights
in the desert. I'm from Arizona, so I wanted to
see the cool lights and everything.
Speaker 5 (38:06):
Well, it wasn't that.
Speaker 12 (38:07):
I mean, it was just like you hear in the movies.
It was I saw devils and I saw cars coming
out with me. It was pretty much the most terrific
four hours I've ever spent.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
Well, Chris, I can completely understand the one and done
for you when it comes to the peote. Thank you
for sharing. I appreciate you doing it and glad you're
listening and being a part of the show as well.
All Right, that's it, let's shift gears, let's kick the
door open. It's time for the RNL Carriers Inside Pitch.
Speaker 6 (38:31):
The following is a special sports presentation on seven hundred

that's gone.

Red's getting ready to get at it this afternoon in
Saint Louis. They have lost the first two of this
(40:05):
weekend series against the Cardinals NL Central rivals, and it's
been a very challenging situation. Reds were effectively pounded on
Friday night at ten three loss. I'm trying to be positive,
but it's difficult. On the top of the first on
(40:25):
Friday night they scored three cards, came back to score
two immediately and the third and the bottom of the
third they scored again and then get in the fifth
and then sixth and the sixth. It made a ten
to three, and that was painful and ugly and bad.
Last night, the Reds came back Cardinals after the bottom
of the second were leading three to nothing, and then
the Reds scored three in the top of the third,
(40:46):
and I'm like, all right, they're with it. Then they
scored two in the top of the fourth. I'm like, okay,
they're ahead by two.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
This is good.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Cards, like, we don't quit bottom of the six or
bottom of the fifth. They score again, and at that
point then they're down one run and they're scoreless for
another two winnings. Reds can't get it done on the
top of the eighth. At the bottom of the eighth,
Cards score two. I was trying to be positive. This
doesn't seem very positive. I know Alex Egan was producing
shaking his head at me. I'm sorry. It ends up
(41:14):
being a six to five final for the Reds. Mal
takes the loss and they couldn't get it done the
top of the night. So now let's forget about all that.
Let's try to be positive.
Speaker 5 (41:25):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
I've got the injury news to get to in a
whole lot of other stuff before the Reds, who are
at this point, you know, looking to do what they
can to better their circumstance. They are two games back
in the wild Card, which I know it's only June seventh.
Why are you talking about that? Because they're eight and
a half back right now in the NL Central. That's
why they're two games back of the Cubbies. There are
(41:49):
two games back of the Pitchburgh Pirates, so usually fade,
but they're hanging at this point. They're five, let's see,
five games out of first of the Cardinals at this point,
and the Reds three and a half behind them. This
is a weekend where they could have picked up three
to help themselves in the NL Central, but it hasn't
happened yet. Today they hope to hold on and actually
at least salvage one, so they only drop one game
(42:10):
to the Cardinals before heading out West to play a
San Diego Padres team who were thirty three and thirty
and those guys in the NL West eight games out
what has looked to be the toughest division in baseball
to this point, with everyone above five hundred at least
until yesterday was the NL Central, but the Reds are
now one under five hundred, trying to get back to
(42:32):
that window of balance. Moving ahead, we'll see how it goes.
I did not mean to be the bearer of bad tidings,
but you know as well as I do that's the circumstance.
So let's get to a whole bunch of other stuff
and think positively about this situation in this matchup that
is coming up here a little later this afternoon on
the Big One with a two to fifteen first start,
(42:55):
and Matt Louder are Ret Louder, excuse me, on the
hill for the Reds and facing off against Michael McGreevy.
I'll give you the pitching matchup here in just a moment,
but let's start with home run leaders in the major leagues.
It's Big Sticks in the Big Leagues, brought to you
by Encore Technologies visit OnCore dot tech and by Midwestern
(43:15):
Plumbing Service Cincinnati Plumbers. You can count on five one
three seven five three zero zero fifty five one three seven,
five three zero zero five zero. All right, uh, as
you look at this point at the stats, Kyle Schwarber,
tri stater designated hitter for the Phillies, He's gone deep
(43:36):
twenty three times. He's slashing a two forty one batting average.
On base percentage three fifty eight slugging five eighty six
ops nine to forty four not bad in the American
League Houston Astros DH Yourdan Novarez gone deep twenty two times,
driven in forty eight three sixteen batting average four to thirty,
(43:56):
on base percentage six fifty four slugging. You add those
last two numbers up for those who don't understand the
slash and regularly. A neighbor kid just asked me the
other day, it's such a plain slash to me, I
was like the guitarist for Guns n' Roses, and he
just looked at me bewildered, too young to know better.
And you add those up, and that's how you end
up in a situation like your now Vearez with a
one point eight four OPS. Muna Taka Murakami, he's the
(44:21):
first baseman for the Chicago White Sox, is at twenty
home run so far. And you go a little bit
further down the list and you keep looking. You're like, well,
what about the Reds? You know, how is that working
out for the Reds. I'm gonna tell you, Ellie Da
La Cruz, who I'll talk about in the injured list
hopefully back sooner than later. He's gone deep twelve times,
So salth Stewart JJ Blede has gone deep ten times already.
(44:44):
Driving in twenty eight thirty nine runs better than for
salth Stewart, how spectacular, and to thirty seven for Ellie,
who hopefully is feeling better sooner than later. That is
effectively your big sticks in the big leagues. So that
has been taken care of a scoreboard. Look around the
this afternoon. What's underway already? It's that early warm up situation.
(45:05):
Nothing but getting ready sooner than later. I think of
the Peacock game and a bunch of others. NL Central rivals.
Pirates are on the road in Atlanta. Atlanta is just spectacular.
Speaker 2 (45:16):
Listen to this.
Speaker 1 (45:17):
They are forty four and twenty one. They're twenty three
games above five hundred. That is serious. Pirates are three
over and they'll get it on a little bit later.
The Phillies are home against the White Sox in Philadelphia.
They'll play a bit later. Yankees are home in the
Bronx against the Red Sox. Obviously a storied rivalry there,
(45:40):
but there's ten games difference between those two teams. Yankees
are thirty seven and twenty six. The Red Sox, struggling
twenty seven and thirty five, made a manager's change early
on and they're just still trying to find their way.
Blue Jays are home in Toronto taking on another pair
of Birds, the Orioles so Oriols Blue Jays later, Tigers
and Marin in Detroit. The Marlins are in Miami taking
(46:04):
on the Rays to Sea Creatures getting it on the
Devil Rays and the Marlins. That's coming up a little
bit later. Astros in the A's Athletics, who by the way,
actually have one home series in their new place, Las Vegas,
sooner than later, but they're on the road in Houston,
playing regularly their home games in Sacramento. But Las Vegas
(46:27):
will get a little taste of what Major League Baseball
is coming up in a short couple of weeks. The
Twins and the Royals after two to ten, are going
to get it on. The Rangers and the Guardians playing
in Arlington. Cleveland thirty seven and twenty nine on the year,
having a pretty good season so far, Rangers a couple
under five hundred and thirty one and thirty three. The
(46:48):
Rockies are hosting the Milwaukee Brewers, and they are thirty
nine and twenty three in leading the NL Central by
five games over the Cardinals, six and a half over
the Pirates, same for the Cobbies, and eight and a
half over the Reds. Brewer's doing all right. It'd be
nice if they could start losing. It would be nice
if the twenty four and forty one Rockies team could
(47:08):
somehow find a way to help themselves and help the Reds.
But be nice if the Reds could help themselves. So
we'll see how that comes up a little later against
those Cards. Diamondbacks are home in the Desert of Phoenix,
taken on the Nationals after three point fifteen. Dodgers are
home in Los Angeles against the Angels, battle of the
LA teams, twenty four and forty one Angels, and on
(47:32):
the opposite end of the spectrum, the Dodgers are forty
two and twenty three, leading the way in the NL
West by eight games over the Padres. That's where the
Reds go next to San Diego, eight and a half
over the aforementioned Diamondbacks. And get this, the Giants are
already sixteen games back. It's not even yet July, so
there's time for him to catch up. It could happen,
(47:53):
Alex Egan, it could eighteen last He's like no chance.
Eighteen back. The Rockies are of the dodge at this point,
so hopefully the Padres can wobble a bit. They're over
five hundred, but the Reds win today, get a little momentum,
go to San Diego, soak up some Southern California sun,
eat some fish tacos, and go to work to start
the week. We'll see how it goes, but we don't
(48:14):
