Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
For Lincoln Donnade hanging out back together again in Nation
Station seven hundred W WELW. You'll hear the super Bowl
here tomorrow. Sean McMahon's producing Donna how eckside or you
about the super Bowl?

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Well, you know, I always love watching the super Bowl.
It's a it's an American tradition where an entire world watches.
I mean, it's a big event. It's always fun. Last
year was great. I like Ken Kendrick Lamar, but all
eyes are going to be on three time Grammy winner
Bad Bunny, a very controversial halftime show. I think you're

(00:37):
either gonna be watching him or you're gonna be watching
kid Rock.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
I could be at the buffet, I mean, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
I mean, wait, wait, wait, are you telling me you
are not You're already starting to show off weird.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
You're telling me you're not.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Gonna be watching one or two or flipping back to
both to go watch the alternate.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
It's not anna halftime show necessarily my priority. I mean,
I like Bob Ritchie. That's a kid rock, right, Yeah,
he's doing his thing for a tp USA. A turning
point if you're not acronymically in the.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Game, Charlie Kirk's former You Know Thing company.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Yeah, Bad Bunny's cool. I don't know much in the
way of Spanish, just enough to get in trouble or
get some food sometimes both. So I mean I'm interested
in that. I mean he's been streamed more than anybody
basically on planet Earth. Bad Bunny has in recent times,
and I'm hip with either one. They'd be a great
show together, to be honest, it.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Would be a very cool show together. You know, my
sister is so funny. She's like, I'm so looking forward
to Kid Rock. I said, oh, you're gonna watch kid
Rock instead of Bad Bunny. She goes, what do you mean?
I said, you know that. They're the only one who
my mom even, I said, this is ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
She's a huge.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Kid Rock fan because she's seen him perform live. And
if you've seen kid Rock perform live, I haven't. I
heard he was out absolutely amazing and plays all kinds
of instruments. But the idea of an alternate Super Bowl
halftime show has never been done before. I think it's
a little odd just because you don't like who's performing

(02:13):
the halftime show to put another one on now with
that being said, I don't know one bad Bunny song.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
One, Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
I mean I watched partial, partial parts of the Grammys
an he won three. I really don't know this artist
very well. So I think it's a strange call. And
we both have said it for a long time. Here's
bad Bunny right here, this hit, this feels are.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Like moving right now. I got a hip thing going on.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
I mean, it's kind of a cool song and it
definitely has a good vibe.

Speaker 3 (02:46):
I'm just learning this song.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
But when he was you know, when he was announced
that he was going to be playing the Super Bowl show, no.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Idea, no idea. That's a problem for.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Something he sings in Spanish.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
He also said he is going to be wearing a dress,
so that turns some people off.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
Just by the way, for those that don't know, thank you.
I'm here to help. Well, I mean not everyone knows. No,
I know, I'm here to help. I'm here for the people.
Don't listen.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Jay Z is the one that puts on for rock Nation,
they put on the super Bowl. They he's the one
that decided this performer.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Oh, the NFL had to approve it. They know they
want to the audience. There's billions of people out there.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
Well that's jay Z is being paid to say, here's
the entertainment.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Is not even getting paid.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Nobody gets paid for the super Bowl. You know who's
going to get paid? I bet Kid Rocket will get paid.
You talk about that off there absolutely, I mean why
wouldn't you, I mean, getting paid, I would be.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
There's no reason I'd show up if not.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
People are also canceling the on the on the ticket.
There's some people that are canceling on the ticket for
Kid Rock.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
What do you mean, well, oh, you mean the bill.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah, they don't.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
They don't want to be in the world of divisiveness
as an artist, and I respect that too. Well, some
people take a stand and some people don't want to
get involved.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Music brings people together. In this case, it's just going
to be two different camps. I think the vast majority
of people will be paying attention to the super Bowl
halftime show. Nothing against Kid Rock. I've had him on
shows over the years. I've seen him a bunch of times.
Good dude doing his thing, and it's just another chance
to be seen and heard by the masses, right, I mean,
but there are people so angry, so hostile about this.

(04:29):
I just there is so much other stuff, don it, Right,
it really is life changing that this is like, well,
you know, maybe get a good vibe from Bad Bunny.
I'll flip over see some kid rock, and then I'm
gonna stuff some nachos and Pepper's in my head and
then hopefully you get into the bathroom with a big flush,
because that's always the halftime thing.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
A little too much information, Well.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
I bet, I mean, it happens, and then you know,
you watch the rest of the game, and in my case,
I'm thinking, Okay, let's go see Hawks handle it and
send the Patriots home losers back to New England and
sorry if you're a Patriots fan, and then on to
the next thing. But if people want to be angry,
they want to be hostile, they want to find a
reason to hate for some reason. Why not, I just

(05:12):
don't have the energy to give a damn Well.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
There's other things to be upset about, right, I mean,
I completely agree with you, Ster. Language doesn't happen all
that often, but music is the universal language. Everybody. Everybody
loves listening to music. Yes, I love it. When Sean's
even playing this stuff, right now? Does Kid Rock put

(05:36):
on a great performance?

Speaker 3 (05:37):
Always?

Speaker 2 (05:38):
He always puts on a great performance, So I think
he's probably gonna kill it for his version the alternate
super Bowl halftime show.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
But I do think.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
You know, Bad Bunny did perform the Super Bowl with
j Loo and Shakiro when they play.

Speaker 4 (05:56):
He was, you know what a great halftime show that one.
That was a very good halftime show. Like Saki a
lot who doesn't use bad Buddies from Puerto Rico? So
you know, I don't know who?

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Do you who? Do you think the majority is?

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Do you think they'll stay on the super Bowl?

Speaker 1 (06:15):
A super on the because I mean, where is the
kid Rock thing going to be?

Speaker 2 (06:18):
It's going to be obviously, yeah, it's going to be
on turning point, say YouTube channel Rumble eight o'clock Eastern.
Of course that's when the super Bowl halftime show.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
You're going to be on Charge TV too, I guess,
so that's.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Should be on X. I think X is going to
have something yeah, So I mean it'll be available on
a multitude, but you'll.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
Have to turn the superposis. It's another step for people.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
We'll have a problem, I mean, because it's always an
issue because people, How do I get back to where
I was? Yes, to touch that.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
Two screens going on at the same time.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Not everybody has ten devices going at one time, like
you or me or you know generations younger. You know
what ship in there?

Speaker 2 (06:59):
What pressure on bad Bunny? You know, to uh to
perform this super Bowl because there's so much controversy surrounding
it and there's no.

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Pressure really say so?

Speaker 1 (07:13):
I mean, as long as there's no like Nipplegate problem,
which you don't have to worry about that. I mean,
does that an obscure reference at this point?

Speaker 3 (07:19):
I think everybody knows what that is.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
Yeah, Okay, So justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
Going back in the day in the Chinese throwing story, you.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Can see back then anybody that has performed the Super
Bowl halftime show.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
And I have said this a bunch of times.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
You usually know a good amount of their music. I mean,
Prince Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Madonna, Aerosmith, Bruno, Mars, Lady Gaga, Beyonce.
I mean, you can pretty much you can name at
least three or four.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Mary J.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
Blige, I mean you can go on and on. Even
Kendrick Lamar was an interesting choice.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
Not a ton of people knew he's huge though. He's huge. Yeah,
I mean, so let's open up the phones and see
what people have to say about this. I it is
an unusual choice. It's not English, that is the NFL.
It's an American thing, but it's a global event and
they're trying to expand and there's not much bigger but

(08:21):
a lot of people it's it's just funny. I think
people in a lot of situations at this point just
want to find a reason to be outraged. It's manufactured outrage.
If I could get paid for it, great, and that's
good for kid Rock. But in general, I just have
so much other stuff that weighs me down that's going
on that I have to navigate and deal with. I
just find it hard to be and I've talked to

(08:42):
I mean, friends, neighbors in the midst of trying to
get my dog out in this wonderful weather of ours,
because it is it's listen, it's winter, get over it.
It's Cincinnati, it's the tri State. It's February. It's cold,
there's snow on the ground. It sucks. It'll be opening
days soon enough. And this is the last time we
had some real winter. This is what it is.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yeah, this is definitely winter in Cincinnati.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Yeah, let's open up phones five, one, three, seven, four, nine,
seven thousand, eight hundred, the big one. Pick up the phone,
you give it the finger. You can talk back the
iHeartRadio app. Maybe you're streaming there, unless it's Wednesday in July,
at which point you're gonna go snow on the ground.
What are you talking about? The super Bowl aftime show? Well,
that's technology and time shifting. You do what you need
to do. Click on the microphone, leave a messager if
you're on x at Sterling Radio or Instagram at Sterling

(09:28):
dot Dona d dot twenty twenty three. So are you
gonna watch Bad Bunny, You're gonna watch Kid Rock or
are you gonna go back and forth? You know, here's
the beauty of this also, because we all have the
technology effectively in our hand or on our wrist, right,
you can turn both of them on and you can
also then go back and watch it later. Yes, right,
just like listening to Eddie and Rocky. You're listening to

(09:49):
Tom in the morning and you're like, Okay, what's Tom
Brenneman doing. I don't know. I'll listen to him at
lunch after and then between Willie and then before Lance
and then you can do that.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
You have the power. It's an amazing thing world living.
It's important to watch while it's going on. Otherwise, Fomo,
you can watch two things at this time. I'm going
to a super Bowl party, just a low key thing
down the street. I'm going to a super Bowl party.
And she'll have three TVs. And I can guarantee you
both well, yes, you have one over here and the

(10:19):
other one over there.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Yeah, and you can you can take a poll, an
instant poll, which is what we want to do right now, exactly. Yeah,
let's let's rip some polls. So let's get to Madison
til Kurt first, Ernie up, Richard after that room for you.
I'd love to hear from the ladies as well. It's
a Saturday Sterling and Donna d on the big one. Kurt,
what do you know bad Bonnie kid Rock? Do you care?
Are you angry? Have you call it that the anger

(10:40):
that people have about these dueling and halftime shows or what?

Speaker 5 (10:46):
Kurt?

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Are you there?

Speaker 6 (10:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (10:49):
We can hear you now. For a minute, I thought
I was having like a stroke or something you smell toast,
not recently, that does happen, you get good smells and stuff. Yeah, Donna,
look Fred, it happens anyway. What do you have?

Speaker 7 (11:05):
So anyway, I'm not really angry about it. I mean,
as far as Super Bowl, the two teams are in it,
I really don't have a dog in the fight. So
although I hate to see the Patriots when.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
It is some unreasonable, unrational hate, I know so many people,
Oh I totally do yeah, absolutely hurt him with you.

Speaker 7 (11:29):
They want it too many times.

Speaker 6 (11:32):
Not only that, one of my.

Speaker 7 (11:33):
Best friends is from New England.

Speaker 8 (11:35):
And I don't want to hear him go on and.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Kurt, I got a body of mine who's lived there
now longer than he lived here, and he's the same way,
and I can hear him now, Kurt, I appreciate the
call men, thank you. Uh see, So I mean what
you can call that, Kurt? But he said he didn't care,
and it was that is my fault. Bellevue, Ernie was
sterling and DNA deal on the big one. I'm sorry

(11:59):
I got all this popular. Did you got a quick
trigger finger? What do you know?

Speaker 8 (12:01):
Orobulated?

Speaker 9 (12:03):
Well?

Speaker 10 (12:03):
I just wanted to tell you first off, you guys
are so terrific together and I really enjoy it, and
I just won't tell you that you guys are great.
It could be a national show in my opinion. You know,
I really do believe that it's not good. But you know,
I don't know anything about Bad Bunny. I have seen

(12:25):
Kid Rock and he is fantastic. I don't really care either,
does anybody really Maybe maybe some people do, but do
they really care about the halftime music show? It's a
quick hitter. I mean, I don't know. I guess maybe
I shouldn't say that, but I'm just not sure that

(12:47):
it's that big of a deal. The game's kind of
a big deal, I guess, and it's very entertaining. The
super Bowl star is fantastic. It's such a big event,
and you know, even if you don't watch football long,
it's it's kind of fun to tune into it. But yeah,
I just don't know anything about Bad Bunny.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
So now, not not a lot of people do.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
I mean introduction, he's huge, but again it's a very
he's narrow because of the language issue. Well, it'll be
interesting to see if he does like appreciate the man,
thank you, Uh, Shakira started out speaking and singing Spanish.
She still does that, but then she broke out huge
singing and doing it domestically here in the States and
another place or English big hits. Yeah. Kurt was back

(13:33):
quickly before we get onto the other su because I
I did. I didn't mean to hang up Ony Man,
I'm sorry it happened.

Speaker 7 (13:42):
Bad Bunny kid, I want to hear about Well, I
don't care about the teams, but as far as Bad
Bunny goes. About a week or throw ago, Uh, he
did an interview and he said his show is going
to be super gay and super anti American. Why would
I possibly want to watch anything like that?

Speaker 1 (14:03):
I missed that. Where was that?

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Yeah, I haven't heard that.

Speaker 7 (14:06):
Yeah, I saw a story about that on on Twitter X.
I guess, yeah, so are.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
You interested to see if that comes through? That would
be suicide for him when it comes to business. I
can't imagine that being the case. But I get what
you're saying, Kurt. Thank you. It's got a couple more
to do. Some search on that. I missed that. Figure
would make some bigger than Let's get to add and
then Ron and then Mike will try to get everybody
in here before the break? We got other stuff. Get
you to on a Saturday, Sterling and Donna d Ed,
what do you know? Bad Bonnie Kid Rock? Are you

(14:37):
upset or angry? What are you going to watch?

Speaker 6 (14:42):
Hello?

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Helloa?

Speaker 3 (14:44):
Did you just miss Sterling's interest?

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, we can hear you. Go ahead?

Speaker 9 (14:47):
Ed?

Speaker 1 (14:47):
What do you have?

Speaker 11 (14:48):
Mann you here?

Speaker 1 (14:51):
I'm gonna put him back on hold and see if
we can like find him. I'm concerned Surprice selling Ron
with Sterling and Donna d Bad Bonnie Kid Rock? Do
you care? Are you angry? Are you excited? Where do
you fall on this really life and death decision?

Speaker 12 (15:05):
Great question?

Speaker 9 (15:06):
The answer is I've fall confused. At what point in
America did we, first of all, become so infatuated with
a halftime show of it was the major event of
the world, you know, Super Bowl Sunday. Nobody misses it
on the planet pretty much. But we now have and

(15:28):
I'm old. I'm going to tell you straight. I don't
know anything about bad Bunny, but if he's coming out
in a dress and a beard, and I've already heard
some anti ice issues, not a fan, gotcha?

Speaker 10 (15:42):
Okay?

Speaker 9 (15:43):
In fact, I'm confused as to how that set up
even occurred. I've kind of guest watched it over time,
but it is somewhat confusing. But also kid Rock love
the guy to death as far as the old white
tread as just.

Speaker 6 (16:00):
Like me, but.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
Might be a little close to home for me.

Speaker 6 (16:06):
Well yeah, I mean, well, I mean I'm just being real,
you know.

Speaker 9 (16:09):
I mean him and I had a lot in common,
per se, but he seems to come out and capitalize
now on.

Speaker 6 (16:17):
Just this sort of thing too.

Speaker 9 (16:18):
So it's like, I'm down with his message and whatever.
That's all good, but uh, my answer is neither. And
I'm still confused as to how you can have a
cross dressing non English songs on the set.

Speaker 5 (16:34):
I'll say, you know, dude speaks English, but it's.

Speaker 9 (16:36):
Like, and I get Puerto Rico's American and all that,
but this anti Ice, anti government, et cetera, et cetera.

Speaker 6 (16:42):
Et cetera.

Speaker 9 (16:43):
I mean, come on, when is it going to be
a football game again.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
After the show? Yeah, I got that's a solid question
against the wall in time. I appreciate it. Yeah, we'll
get to add and Mike and others. We'll continue this.
There's a lot of other stuff to get to from
Super foods. Also, Dave heard him from ESPN chalk conversation
about him and the business of betting the Super Bowl.
You can hear the money being put on the line

(17:07):
right now, your three thirty report coming up, the latest
on what's happening around planet Earth. And here in the
tri State that matters to us. She's Donna d I'm
sterling in this is seven hundred Wlw's Sterling and Donna
de hanging out seven hundred WULW. So here we are
hours away from the Super Bowl six Mangele's not there.

(17:30):
They're on vacation planning next year's events and activities, trying
to get to the Promised Land. And you've got Seahawks,
you got the Patriots, you got a halftime show that's
getting all kinds of attention, arguably in some circles, maybe
overshadowing the game, which is pretty disturbing to me. Even
in the best of circumstances. People are like, oh, bad, Bunny,
you don't talk English. And then other people Kid Rock

(17:53):
and he's so that there's two different halftime shows that
people have to navigate. Now, I suppose, in some fashion.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Ever been done before an alternate Super Bowl halftime show
because anti program is really going to be I am
going to watch both at the same time. I don't
know how I'm gonna do it. Well, I think it will.
I mean, listen, I will tell you this. I'm a musician.
I've been in radio for thirty years. I love music.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
I am a huge.

Speaker 2 (18:23):
Person that loves plays, loves music. So the halftime show
for me, I'm good. I always enjoy the halftime show.
I love it. There hasn't been one that I haven't
liked in a long time. I don't remember one that
I haven't liked in a long time. Do you do
you remember the last halftime show that you didn't like.
They're usually artists at the top of their game or

(18:45):
have been successful for thirty years, like Aerosmith or you
know that kind of stuff. Prince and Michael Jackson, Tom Patty.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Yes, it's nice. So they could bring him back, but
he's gone.

Speaker 3 (18:58):
I mean that.

Speaker 13 (18:59):
You know.

Speaker 1 (18:59):
That would be a half time show, bring back the Dead.
That would be the one you would watch. I would
It would be like, yeah, a whole other thing all together.
Everybody would watch. What's the NFL doing? They are so strong?
They brought the dead back? Kid Rock's doing his thing
as well. The turning point us a thing. A lot

(19:19):
of people upset about that, and we'll give you a
chance to sound off if you're gonna watch one or
the other, if you're you know, called up in the
And I still believe it's sort of a manufactured anger
and frustration, but we talked to people earlier, and then
there's a legitimate of frustration aggravation of some of the
stuff that Bad Bunny has said. A lot of people
have agreement with what Bad Bunny has said and his
you know, talk about being more about love rather than

(19:41):
some of the hate stuff. Uh, but you know, hatees profitable. Uh,
it just is, it really is. So we'll give you
a chance to sound off of that. I want we
can also talk about super foods, because I don't want
just all about this halftime show. And we can talk
about the game too. There's so much other stuff. Winter
Olympics has happening.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
That's right last night. Oh my gosh, we don't have
one metal yet.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
Well, it'll happen. I will, I know it will. We'll
catch up.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
We have great, amazing you know sports people that play.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
Like you are searching. I could tell I saw your face, right,
Lindsey Vonn. I mean she's got like no knee and
she's like, I'm going to do it anyway. How amazing
is that? I mean, she's like, I'll heal later. This
is the Olympics. That ice skater last night. I got
to look up his name. Oh my gosh, it was amazing.
The one woman who's and I forget her name now.

(20:35):
I should have not even started to say until I.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
Hey, we weren't even prepared for this break.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
I got excited about the Olympics so that I saw
her doing an interview with ABC the other day and
she's I think it's her sixth Olympics or something. She's
got her kids, she's had to nap and I think
she's still breastfeeding one of the kids or something. And
she's doing all of that and she was talking about it.
She's gotten older. She says, she feels every bump in
the bob slid that hits her back, and I totally,
I mean, it looks great. I'd love to do that. No, No,

(21:03):
that'd be too scary.

Speaker 3 (21:04):
Nice, isn't.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
You're on like your blades though you're basically just on
a sled with no.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Protect Yes, right, you just you're literally Jerry Seinfeld did
a whole funny break on the Involuntary Lose.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
You can just get throw street, have fun.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
They could almost win a gold medal.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
At least the bob sled.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
There's like some protection between you and the ice wall, right,
I mean then that bob sled can head right on
your head. I mean, you know, kock it in, got to.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
Talk it in, talk and roll, tuck and roll. I
don't even know what that's from. Something I don't know.
Five point three nine eight hundred, The Big One, Stirling

Speaker 8 (22:44):
The uh?

Speaker 6 (22:45):
You know?

Speaker 5 (22:46):
Really?

Speaker 15 (22:46):
I know Donally you said you're you're a big performer,
uh thing, but you know, really for me it when
well whoever gets up there starts to singing, you know
it's time to go to the bathroom, go hand on your business,
you know whatever.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
That's Sterling right, You only have so much time and
unless you're at home alone, you need to get people
out of the way.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
You got to get in, get out, get ready.

Speaker 15 (23:09):
Yeah, but you know you know what he should moue
to the TV? Are those those creative commercials that they
come up with. You don't want to miss any of
those commercials.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
You'd rather miss the halftime show, Mike than any of
the commercial spots.

Speaker 15 (23:23):
Yeah, Yeah, the commercials are so funny, A lot of
them are. They're just like they're great, they're so creative,
so they're amazing. I mean, you don't mind walking away
from somebody singing a song, so you use a bathroom,
but you don't want to miss You don't want to
walk away for thirty second and miss commercial.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
There's a lot in that, and Mike appreciate the call,
and it's true, that is an odd thing.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
I mean, can I just clear one thing up set
or anything else that you want?

Speaker 3 (23:46):
I don't didn't think I said I was a big performer.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
You like to perform. We're artist? You sing, you play guitar? Yes,
you dance? Do you not dance?

Speaker 2 (23:56):
I don't dance as a performance or I don't. Yeah,
these are not perform Let me let me just say
I I I love to play guitar and I love
to sing.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
Yes I do so like yes I do, yes, Yeah,
I sing. Driving everywhere, I am a yell at people
and get out the right and then I'm back to
my singing and then I'm like water add rock doing
priest what's yeah? Absolutely? Why not? That'd be wouldn't it
be great to have like a Judas Priest halftime show.

(24:29):
I mean seriously, that'd be tremendous.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
Uh, listen to people for some Yeah, well this is
I'm talking about for me.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
Yes, you're worried about me right now.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
This is worried about me. I do everything else for
the people. Ed, can't I have a halftime show?

Speaker 3 (24:43):
For years back?

Speaker 16 (24:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (24:45):
This is Ed? Was Sterling and Donnade. What's going on?

Speaker 9 (24:48):
Ed?

Speaker 6 (24:50):
Hey, how you all doing?

Speaker 1 (24:54):
What's up? We can hear your fine? Tell us about
the halftime show? But bunny kid rock the food? What
are you eating?

Speaker 5 (25:02):
I'm not crazy about either one. Man, I would have
liked to see Dollie man yesterday was their eightieth birthday. Man,
that would have been awesome.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
That was now didn't she do an appearance at one
of the halftime shows or was it another game a
few years ago? And I was surprised at how well
she did because yeah, she's pushing eighty now is eighty? Right?
So yeah, that that'd be good. I'm with you, Ed,
So you prefer Dolly parton? I get that. So since
she's not, what about food you got like a favorite food?

(25:29):
Like what are you throwing down for your own? Like
you know halftime super Bowl all time, just to fill
in your feet, in your.

Speaker 5 (25:35):
Face, the complete kitchen, sink, pizza man, everything on it.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
You're talking like anchovies as well? Or no, I just
want to.

Speaker 17 (25:51):
Wait.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
I wanted to tell ed Hope you're still listening. Yeah,
the first of all, Dolly Parton.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
Was he on earlier?

Speaker 2 (25:58):
It was a different, different, right, So she did the
Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving halftime show and she's turned down the
super Bowl halftime show many times, Dolly Parton, so she's
never performed there.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
She does what she wants. So this is Dolly Parton.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
I love her.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Yeah, she's amazing to Dalahi and Rinaldo, was Stirling and
Donna die on the Big Ones. What do you got?

Speaker 14 (26:18):
Man?

Speaker 1 (26:18):
What about the Super Bowl sixty? It's an X and
and L for those that like the Roman numerals.

Speaker 9 (26:24):
Yeah, yeah, I'm old enough to know them, me too. Yeah,
you know, I wondered in the back of my mind,
like has the NFL figured out like controversy cells I recall,
like the kneeling, the nip slips and just different things.
And now I'm looking at like, I don't know, I

(26:47):
wonder if that's an angle me personally, by the way.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
I go with the Mike guy.

Speaker 9 (26:52):
Mike said, that's when I get up, go to the bathroom,
I take care of my business, may go on the
back for it's his.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
Mind right, and then come back and then eat the
rest of the way. On the second hand, I.

Speaker 9 (27:07):
Just I'm not into it like that, you know. Yeah,
But it dawns on me. They like the NFL has
found themselves in different controversy during halftime, and I gotta wonder.
It's like they some of you know, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
I don't know, well, rinaldo, I don't know.

Speaker 11 (27:23):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (27:24):
Yeah, thank you.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
I'm not sure that they got bad Bunny as a controversial.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
I don't know that they intended it to be that way.
But if they had consulted me, I could have told
them that there might be some people with the chap
backside about it. Yeah, I mean I I again, I.

Speaker 3 (27:40):
Said that was an odd choice. I didn't you know.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
I mean, he's huge, he might huge. Maybe maybe he'll
break out with like some English That's what I mean.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
He's not that huge to where I don't know one
of it. I know one of his songs, the one
that he won the Grammy for our song of the
Year or album of the Year or whatever it was big.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
That is a big deal. It's not an obvious choice.
But I understand about trying to make the tent bigger.
I just wonder for I got a neighbor of mine
and he is so angry. I didn't even the first
time this came up and it was announced. I couldn't, like,
why what's the matter with because he always is eager
to see me when I'm out with the dog because
we talk, you know, And I'm so bad, and I'm like,

(28:22):
what is a matter? I thought somebody like stole his
car or something.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
And he's like, halftime, that bad bunny, And I'm like,
why are you so mad?

Speaker 1 (28:31):
I mean, I would have just thought a better targeting.
I never would have thought that there'd be this much backline.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
No nor I and I don't think. I don't think
the NFL did it either, to be honest, man.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
But once you're in it, you're they can't back out,
what I mean, Then you get everybody hate you who
you've invited. Then in all that to the party, right.

Speaker 3 (28:50):
The numbers, The numbers are going to be so interesting.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
That's the other thing.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
If it's a house divided, you know what I mean,
who's gonna say put on this and on that?

Speaker 3 (29:00):
That's interesting.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
You got to go by the count in the house.
Everybody has more than one device.

Speaker 2 (29:05):
Yes, if you want to go watch Bad Bunny or
Kid Rock, you can do it on your own phone.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
There you go. Let's get to Hamilton Kenny with Sterling
and Donnade on the big What about this whole super
Bowl thing?

Speaker 6 (29:15):
Man, Yeah, this should have Chicago and earth Wind and Fire.
That'd be good.

Speaker 3 (29:22):
I love that choice.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
I would be both choices. I'm good with Chicago Transit
Authority going back to the old thing. That'd be good.

Speaker 6 (29:30):
Yes, Chicago, that would be People would see that, and
people would love that.

Speaker 3 (29:36):
I couldn't agree more. I would love that.

Speaker 1 (29:40):
Now, So if you got your your maid to order
halftime show, which you could program me yourself, you could
go to the iHeartRadio app and say I got a
half hour twenty minutes and you load that up. You
could listen to, you know, your earth Wind and Fire
and your Chicago. Then you can get yourself some good
food and come right back to it, and everybody around
will be angry about the halftime shows. Had my own

(30:00):
personal Eye Radio.

Speaker 6 (30:04):
Mary, he loves Chicago too, Marty does, yeah, Cargo, Yeah, because.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
He's got to.

Speaker 3 (30:09):
He loves Chicago. But you're just we're saying my point.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
It's not really for the younger generation and maybe not worldwide,
which is the NFL's goal here is to get the
younger audience.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
And yeah, get them hooked and go worldwide. Looked on
the football. I to ca Yeah and yeah, man, yeah,
can't you go ahead?

Speaker 6 (30:30):
Yes, so you use a little Caesars pizza pizza.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
There you go, little Caesars is good. That's good. And
I don't know, well, they have an ad. I don't
know who. That's the other thing, remember what it was.
Now all the ads are already out. People watch the
Edge before they watch him during because it's interesting to
see how they're slotted and so well.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
Everybody talks about it. So it's free advertising. I mean,
they pay so much money for a spot to air,
a thirty second spot, fifteen seconds.

Speaker 3 (30:59):
It's us. It's a ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Probleish ones were like twenty grand or less year. Yeah,
if I'm not mistake.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
But so they release them so that they can people
like you and I. You and I can watch them
and say, oh, you got to look out for the
AI spot from chat gee.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
But whoever?

Speaker 2 (31:14):
Right, sure, there's a million AI spots going to be
at the super Bowl the show.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
I haven't seen one, have you.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
I've seen random clips. I mean, I don't know. I
want to watch them while they go. That's that's what
it is fun to watch the commercials. Absolutely, yeah, So listen,
what was we're to do here? We got news coming
up here shortly, and so we got some other stuff
to get to. There's been some controversy. I know, it's
shocking in the news as of late. We may dip
our toe into that. Give you a chance to sound off.

(31:41):
A lot of people upset. I don't know how much
was manufactured, how much wasn't, But all I'm gonna say
is sorry, right, yeah, it seems to be a lot
of people are looking. You should say you sorry. You
should say you sorry. And if you don't know what
I'm talking about yet, just think about it just for
a minute and we'll address this a little bit later.
He's not gonna say sorry, and I know what he
shouldn't say. He's sorry, you know why, because he's not

(32:03):
sorry and people just need to.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
He's being authentic about it.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
Yeah. Yeah, so you're like, what is Sterling talking about?
Hang out? We'll explain after your four o'clock report. We
have time to get one more in here. I mean,

I said, did you like I'm just curious though, Like
Milton Burrell? You like Milton burrole back in the day.

Speaker 18 (32:51):

Speaker 1 (33:15):
Yeah, I got it. Well, we'll see Chris appreciate the
call man. So he's just against the dress. He didn't
have any other just the dress. Well, I gotta wear
the right dress. He's kilt.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
Maybe it wouldn't bother you. I'm still blown away. I
can see you wearing the kilts.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
Now I've done it.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
I've done that. I did at the Dublin Irish vest Crow.
Where's the kilt? I mean, you know, wear regularly well,
cold out, welcome, told.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
You know what I mean. Time for news straight away?
More Sterling, Donnade home of the Reds. They're going to
be in the desert, like some are probably already in
the desert. I won't mention Puig former readies looking at
prison time. That's not good. Seven hundu, wellw Cincinnati. Here
we are Saturday afternoon. Sterling and Donna de hanging out.
You look troubled. No, write something I said.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
No, it's the it's the subconsious.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
It's the conversation that your head.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
I mean, seriously, you whatever you did, okay? Should we
just drop it? It's up to you. Do you want

Speaker 5 (34:30):
No?

Speaker 1 (34:31):
Uh so, so what do you want to do?

Speaker 2 (34:34):
I say, we move on and get to the callers.
That's what I Okay. So we were talking about the
Super Bowl sixty. I know you may have heard. There's
a big game tomorrow. Uh you get the Patriots, you
get the Seahawks. I'm off for Seattle, youno for whoever
you want. I couldn't care less. And because it's not
our Bengals, and if we stop caring for a while, yeah,
I mean, if it's if it's a you got some
money on it, I hope it works out for it.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
That's how that goes. U Bad Bunny Kid rock halftime shows.
One's the NFL halftime show, the others the anti programming
from TPUSA and Turning Point. A lot of people sort
of geeked up about seeing both, which is kind of nice.
You'll be doing that.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
I will be watching both. I am somebody.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
First of all, I'm a phantom music and not a
huge performer, just a phantom which you perform.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
I do perform, but also Sterling.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
What's exciting is, first of all, this is making history
because there's never been an alternate Super Bowl halftime show.
So the numbers the next day are going to be
very The puppy ball is also very important to watch.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
Bible twenty two? Yeah, oh what is it?

Speaker 14 (35:34):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (35:35):
Was it twenty two?

Speaker 12 (35:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (35:36):
Okay I didn't always that lot.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
No, but but but the idea of finding out who
tunes out, who turned the whole numbers thing is going
to be interesting on Monday morning too.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
Oh well, well, people be talking about commercials. Peoplere gonna
be talking about the halftime show. Hopefully you talk about
a good game. I prefer to have a good game
than a bad game. But if the Seahawks want to
blow out the Patriots, I'm cool with that.

Speaker 2 (35:59):
I mean, you know, yeah, you gotta be honest to
the games this year in the NFL have been amazing.
Playoff men, they were unbelievable to watch every game.

Speaker 3 (36:10):
You were on the ceaty the edge of your seat
for the whole game.

Speaker 1 (36:13):
Thought that Chicago game was overturned that stuff.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
Oh I came back like, holy crap, how crazy was that?

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Rewind what I missed? Yeah, it was a lot.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
So there's a good chance that this game is going
to be very good.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
Let's hope.

Speaker 14 (36:25):
So.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
And I'm going to mention the Puppy bol because we're
always talking about Cincinnati Animal Care. You are foster, You
got your boy Gusts. Yep, you're ninety percent sure you're
going to keep it. It was listening now to me out. Yeah,
it's a big one year old puppy. Yeah, he's got
lots of energy and stuff. They've always had the puppy bowl,
but now they have older dogs too, because you know,
they want to get them adopted and show them some love.

(36:47):
And they you know, the NFL is always introducing all
these new camera angles and all this other technology that
sort of goes into it. Uh, they have now technology.
There's a bowl camp. Forgive me if that's if you're
a Puppy bul fan who knows the history of the
twenty two they've done so far, But it's the first
time I have noticed that they have a bowl camera.
So as the puppies put their face in to drink water,

(37:07):
their paws Internet And the disturbing thing is you see
exactly how filthy.

Speaker 3 (37:11):
You watch, and they don't care. They still drink.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
Because their dogs, that's their job. They lick their butt
and then kiss you exactly. A lot of questions we
all have, is I really do five one, three, seven hundred,
the Big One? You can pick up the phone, get
interactive that way, talk back the iHeartRadio app. Wondering if
you're gonna watch? What do you want to do? We
sort of tease something too.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
There's a couple things in there.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
Do you want to get in there? Do you want
to wait?

Speaker 3 (37:38):
How many callers do we ad?

Speaker 1 (37:40):
A couple?

Speaker 2 (37:40):
Okay, let's get through the collars and then we'll go
into the other thing.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
All right, let's get to a chevy at Mark, we
got Richard, who's beholding forever? And Ed's called back again?
Who I I don't know call that time, but yeah,
it's very Mark and Chevy at what's going on? You
were Sterling and Donnade on the Big One? What do
you have? Man?

Speaker 19 (37:56):
Hey, how's it going?

Speaker 2 (37:57):
Guys?

Speaker 19 (37:58):
You know they had that collar calling earlier about having
a halftime show with Dolly. Yeah, well I think that
would be great and maybe they could have like Willie
Nelson on there as well. Yeah, they could add a
little bit of Janet Jackson controversy, and he could reach
over and tear he shows.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
That would be tough, would be hard times to Dolly
would after that mark. That's tremendous, tak.

Speaker 2 (38:26):
You know, she has been offered to do the super
Bowl several times and she has turned to town.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
Yeah. Well, I mean she was also like the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame and she's like, that's for rock.

Speaker 3 (38:36):

She's gone, the woman who played Maud there's an obscure
reference for seventies. She's gone. Uh Stelle Geddy, she's dead. Yeah,
I mean, is this what we're gonna do? Who's dead?

But anyhow? Uh on the the Super Bowl and stuff.
You know a lot of people don't realize, man, there's
quite a few Ohio state players and stuff in there.

Speaker 6 (41:31):
One of the big things.

Speaker 12 (41:32):
Is that the coach for New England is in Ohio State.
Long buddy, Yes, Mike Rabel Rabril Ohio State. And uh
so it's a it's a cheering for who's going to
cheer for who man buck guys on both sides.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
That's good. That's always Actually it's only get the puppy there.

Speaker 12 (41:52):
On Mike grab Is the Ohio State alumni.

Speaker 1 (41:57):
Yeah, Grabel Jackson Smith Jaba and Thayer Munford Junior a
part of that also, Oh, that's a lot. Yeah. So
he got it covered on both sides of the ball too.
That's pretty good. Ed, good to talk to him in
thank you what ye No, I was going to say,
we are going to hang up on you.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Yeah, you're not getting cut off or letting you go
saying goodbye to you, Ed, thank you.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
We don't want to, but we have to carry on.
It's it's sort of the way that goes.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
Always sad to let him go.

Speaker 1 (42:24):
Now, I want to set something up, can we Let's
try to set this up and see how this goes.
We talked a little bit about it last night. It
may have died down a bit, but I'm looking at
social media stuff. There's still people talking about it. President
of the United States on his truth social late Thursday,

(42:45):
for the better part of twelve thirteen hours, had posted,
uh this thing. It's a video. It was like an
election BS saying that the election was stolen because he
can't let that go. He won the second time. He's
here in the office now, but he's fixed on twenty twenty.
No one knows why. Maybe as we look at this,

(43:05):
then he had this AI generated President Obama first Lady
Michelle Obama head superimposed effectively on gorillas or apes of
some sort, which is a really historically racist trope, marginalizing
individuals because of their skin color. And of course he

(43:28):
has the history of saying that Obama wasn't an American anyway,
blah blah blah, you know, all that stuff, and people outraged.
And then he polled it. He said he wasn't sorry
about it, because he's not, but he said he didn't
see all of it right. And I just want to
tell you if you worked for pick a company, right,

(43:48):
whether you work for a school district, or whether you
work for a professional sports team, or whether you work
for a manufacturer of food products or making widgets, it
doesn't even matter. And to you out there on your
social media, put up some racist, bigoted bs and the
expectation will be that most any other person would be

(44:09):
kicked to the curb and fired. Apology or not. Certainly,
some sensitivity training and some diversity, equity and inclusion understanding
to sort of figure out exactly why what was said
or shared would be offensive or hurtful. But there's a
past practice of this going on, right, So I'm going

(44:30):
to say this, and Donn, I want to know what
you think will open up the phones, give people a
chance to sound off. Is it offensive? Yes? Is it
disgusting yes? Is it below the office of the President
of the United States? Yeah, one would say historically, at
least publicly, yes. But we know who Trump is and
he's back for his second term. He got beat by
seven million votes, even though he says it was rigged

(44:51):
in between when Biden got in there. He's got his
second term now, and he's still fixated on that grievance
and arguably about future election stuff and whatever that is
going on on the down low or not maybe in
the open. But why would he because and I asked this,
Yesterorf pe, well, he should apologize. All kinds of people
saying he should apologize. So I just want to say this.

(45:12):
It's like you're talking to a three year old who
poked their sister in the eye on purpose and then
tell her you're sorry and I'm sorry, and he's not sorry.
He's not sorry. It's not genuine. It doesn't matter. He
meant to poker in the eye. He meant to be offensive,
he meant to be hurtful, and I got to tell

(45:33):
you something. The other argument that I have heard that
is astounding, Well, I think it was probably one of
his underlinks. Somebody works for him, probably posted that for him.
He himself has says that only he posts his stuff
on truth social unless he directs someone to do it. Right,
so own it. And the apologist and the really amazing

(45:58):
gymnastics of trying to wrapationalize and make sense of and
to say, well Obama did this and Obama did that.
This has nothing to do with someone late at night
putting something on their social media feed that was as racist,
just about as racist can get. He may as well
have had somebody strung up or lynched in a video
and then I didn't know nothing about it. So I

(46:20):
want to give you a chance. We want to give
you a chance to sound off. That's my take down.
I want to know what you think on it. I mean,
but all this call of him wanting to apologize, good
for him for not because it wouldn't mean anything if
he did, So why would anybody want an apology from
somebody who doesn't really have an apology in them. They're
not sorry about it. Maybe sorry that it's turned into

(46:42):
something more, but maybe this is nothing. He is who
he is. People re elected him, and I like some
of his policies, but this is the low rent, single digited.
It's the same argument that has gone with the Nazis
and their black outfits and their face mask and they're
long guns here in Cincinnati, what a summer and a

(47:03):
half ago, give or take and all the well, it's
free speech. No, that was ethnic and racial intimidation. It
was some racist bs. It is not free speech. Anybody
else who had done that in any other way would
have been arrested or something else in that situation. And
that is no different than this. And that is a
dog whistle that this president has done to all of

(47:25):
those people who go he's our guy in my humble opinion.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
Yeah, it feels like it feels like the Epstein stuff
is getting pretty intense, and possibly this is another thing
to divert because he usually goes to the cultural wars.
I mean, I don't know that, I don't know that
that Trump, who I do think posted it at eleven
forty five love and forty four at night.

Speaker 3 (47:51):
He didn't.

Speaker 2 (47:52):
He left it up there for almost twelve hours, and
you know, his press secretary said, you guys, this is
fake outrace. Yet she defended it, and then all came
this Republican wave of senators and congressman started saying, this
is ridiculous. It's probably the most racist thing we've seen.
And so I think Donald Trump decided he's got to

(48:16):
do something now. He's not one to ever apologize for anything,
So I agree with you, why would he start here.
I don't think I've ever heard him ever apologize or
take responsibility for anything. That's my take on that. But
he did do this was it's racist. Everybody knows that,

(48:37):
you know, depicting someone like Barack Obama and Michelle Obama
as gorillas and apes and everything else is a horrible
thing to do. Horrible. First, he said he didn't see
the whole thing. The story's changed and none of it
makes sense. So you know, I don't know what we
do from here. I don't think he should apologize either,

(48:58):
because he wouldn't mean it.

that much emotional energy on it because he's a known quantity.
Love him or hate him, that is what he is.

Sterling and Donna D. Hanging out a beautiful Saturday afternoon
in the Tri State. Ice is melting on the side
of the roads. Be careful to refreeze later. I'm just
here to help. It's out there, it is. It's cold.
It's still cold out. It's February. People get used to it.
This is winter the way it used to be. I think,
I don't know. We've had some years lately where it's

(50:51):
just not been bad that bad, and we've gotten a
taste of what it's supposed to be.

Speaker 2 (50:56):
It's sad seasonal effective disorder. It's a same redepressed you
wouldn't believe the signs on that.

Speaker 3 (51:03):
Why you aren't?

Speaker 2 (51:04):
I mean it's been Listen, this is the coldest it's
been in Cincinnati in a long time, and snowiest too
since November.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Yeah, how's the dog doing with the trails in the backyard?
He's good, my little guy. I had to shovel out
like all kinds of paths, and I can't see him
because he's sure even though the snow's compacted. I'm like,
where are you? And he's all quiet? Then he comes
bounding through. I got to draw you off again.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
Well, Gussie's white too, so sometimes I'm like, where in
the heck is he?

Speaker 1 (51:29):
I don't see him? Just lost in the city a snow.
That's the way that is. You know what else has
been lost? I think in a lot of what's been
going on. We were talking a little bit about President
Trumpet and the post he had on his true social
going back Thursday night and it we'll just open up
the phones, give you a chance to sound off.

Speaker 14 (51:44):
One.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
Are you bothered by it? Do you think it's offensive?
I mean it is offensive, right, there is no doubt
about that. Do you buy the fact that he didn't
see the whole video, that he didn't know what it was.
Then later came out after he condemned it, but he
didn't say it was sar is terrible, but I'm not sorry.
Well he blamed an intern that was Can you imagine
an intern? What intern?

Speaker 2 (52:02):
What would do?

Speaker 1 (52:03):
That would have the stones the war votes? You know
what I'm saying to be like, you know, let's you
can maybe even if he gave you directive to post
stuff you know on your own, do you think that
might be one of those things where you go, this
is a gray area. Maybe I ought to ask the
boss if this is the wrong thing to put out there,
and then leave.

Speaker 2 (52:20):
It up for twelve out almost twelve hours. That's also
an odd thing.

Speaker 1 (52:23):
And then have your people defend it until they don't
defend it anymore. It's a very Yeah, it's a lot
of weird stuff. So we'll give you a chance to
sound off. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven, eight
hundred the big one at Sterling Radio and x Sterling
dot dona d dot twenty twenty three on the Instagram. Uh,
I just want to here's the thing I wonder because
I hear a lot of people that go, how dare
you question him? How dare you say anything, it wasn't

(52:47):
his fault, he did not, he didn't do it, or
whatever else. I mean, just you know what if it
wasn't about the Obamas, right, And how hateful that clearly
has been in clearly a racist, bigoted trope, you know,
in marginalizing a population because of the melanin content of
their skin. If it had been the Pope, if it

(53:07):
had been a religious figure of some other kind, if
it had been somebody else that somebody might have found like,
you know, somehow, well, that's hurtful. You want after this
group of people. But there's a whole lot of people
who can either be apologist or I think are deep
down they're like, yeah, that's cool. You know, they're okay
with it. It's an unfortunate thing, but I think that's
the case.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
No, there are people that have blind loyalty to Trump
that can't admit when he does something wrong because he
doesn't admit it.

Speaker 1 (53:33):
I mean.

Speaker 2 (53:33):
And the other thing too, is it is, if you
want respect, which he always says he wants, and I'm
talking about President Trump, you need to give respect in
order to get it.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
You know, I don't know how you can defend him,
and I gotta say this. You know why I would
be fired if I posted something that would be fired
you all, just about any business. You work for a
gas station company, chain, and you put that on your
social somehow somebody identifies it with if the brand, you're
bad for the brand, you're gone.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
Roseanne Barr lost her entire show that was named after
her because she Valerie Jarrett was and she called her
something like that, a monk, something like that. She wasn't
even a video, it was she mentioned or said something
in that effect, and she was fired within three hours
of that post.

Speaker 1 (54:22):
So, I mean, are you okay with it? Are you
bad with it? Is it overblown? You know? I mean,
are you surprised. I'm not surprised. I'm disappointed. I would
I would think that somebody holding on blone of the
president of the United States would maybe, like, you know,
be better than that.

Speaker 2 (54:37):
Yes, maybe, and we are, as a citizen of this country,
we really should ask.

Speaker 3 (54:44):
For a little bit better than that.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
Maybe, rightfully.

Speaker 2 (54:47):
So the Republicans came out and were outraged, many of
them were.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
That's why he took it down. Well, this is great, Marnie,
and Oakley says, maybe that is the American brand, and
I said it was bad for the brand.

Speaker 2 (54:57):
Oh well, is that our brand? And I don't think so.
I hope it's not. I know some people are.

Speaker 1 (55:05):
Let's let's use them holding along, it's gonna be. We
got Rick, we got Lisa, we got Jeff, Marvin, others.
Room for you five one, three, seven, four, nine, eight hundred,
the Big One. Let's go rapid fire through the phone.
Sterling and Donade on a Saturday with Rick on the
Big One. What do you know? What do you have?

Speaker 9 (55:20):
Uh?

Speaker 11 (55:20):
Yeah, A quick question for prob mcdonnade more than anything else.
But what does it feel like you?

Speaker 2 (55:28):
Right?

Speaker 1 (55:28):
Clean? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (55:29):
I mean no, I so I understand what he's saying.

Speaker 1 (55:31):
I am if you didn't hear it because we had
to dump you got too comfortable with his language. So,
in other words, to say, what if Milani, the first
lady Trump's wife, were to get that push message to
her phone, what she would think about it her? Otherwise? Donna?

Speaker 2 (55:43):
As a woman, I guess, yeah, I guess as a woman,
I wouldn't like it.

Speaker 3 (55:46):
I would be horrified.

Speaker 2 (55:47):
I I think that we, as you know, by the
age of five, hopefully are better than that. You don't
do that you don't say that those are hurtful things.
And I don't care if I says, oh, you have
to worry about your hurt it's a moralistic thing.

Speaker 3 (56:04):
It's you know, speech.

Speaker 2 (56:06):
With our Well there's free speech you can, but you're
the president. You're supposed to, you know, bring us together,
not divide us. And that's definitely divisive.

Speaker 1 (56:15):
To be better.

Speaker 2 (56:16):
Yeah, so I would think she might be you know,
she might have a thing to say, but I don't
think we'll hear from her.

Speaker 1 (56:24):
Hey, Lisa, your turn was Stirling and Donnade. What about
this whole true social hateful post. What do you think?

Speaker 22 (56:33):
Hey, I'm not surprised. And by the way, you guys
make a great team. I'm not surprised about what Donald
Trump has done because that is who he is. I mean,
the Bible says clearly in Proverbs as a man's sake
is in his heart, so is he. So that's how
he is. I'm not surprised. And if he did apologize,
it wouldn't be genuine, so he can keep his apology.

(56:56):
And then also it also shows me.

Speaker 8 (56:58):
How some not all, but somehow.

Speaker 22 (57:00):
Some white people, Caucasian people really think about the African
American people as a whole. So that's what I think
about it.

Speaker 1 (57:09):
Well, least appreciate the call. Thank you. I appreciate you
listening into contributing. You can get interactive to let's get
Jeff and dry Ridge. We got Marvin room for you.
A couple of lines open as they become available. Pick
up the phone. You give it the finger, like my
good buddy mister K used to say, five, one, three hundred,
the big one. No, it's up, Jeff. What do you have?

Speaker 14 (57:27):
Well, the the post was was ridiculous. Trump was elected
because they wanted the border shut down and they wanted
crime batten down a bit, and that's why he was elected. Well,
I mean he posted a meme, but the Democrats post

(57:50):
memes to try and get your killed. So I mean,
if I had a choice, i'd i'd take the former
rather than the latter.

Speaker 5 (57:57):
What was it?

Speaker 1 (57:58):
What memes are you talking about? The Democrats doing that?
I may have missed what you saying, trying to get people.

Speaker 14 (58:01):
Killed, telling you Nazis, they're telling you you're everybody's fascist.
It's like, just by being a Republican, I'm a fascist. Well,
well I know, but that's what they tell you that's
what everybody seems to on the Democrat side, seems to
fake and they riot when they don't get their way.

(58:23):
I mean, that's why I selected.

Speaker 1 (58:26):
Literally, I think there are a lot of people who
have the same feeling that you do. Appreciate the call.
As far as that stuff goes, I don't know. But
and then others, and I'll be Devil's advocate because somebody's
got to do it. It's okay. So the j sixth thing,
but that was sort of a riot, but it was
just a tour. I guess I got parted and some
of them got dangerous situation.

Speaker 3 (58:47):
That was a horrifying event for our country.

Speaker 1 (58:50):
Kind of tough. Let's go downtown, Marvin. How are your
house downtown right now? Cold?

Speaker 8 (58:54):
I know, oh man, it's cold.

Speaker 6 (58:56):
How are you doing?

Speaker 8 (58:56):
Stirling and Donna?

Speaker 6 (58:57):
D how y'all doing?

Speaker 1 (58:59):
I appreciate you listening.

Speaker 13 (58:59):
What do you have?

Speaker 1 (59:00):
What do you think about this true social post and
the non apology? Would you take an apology at this
point to mean anything? Because I mean, at least he's
being straight up, He's not sorry.

Speaker 8 (59:11):
No, we're not taking an apology because this guy is
just telling you exactly who he is. And what he is. Okay,
the guy is definitely a racist. Okay, so I think
he's jealous of the Obamas. I mean, what was he
doing up that late tweet? Why wouldn't he making love
to his wife or something?

Speaker 1 (59:30):
I mean this documentary, he.

Speaker 8 (59:34):
Probably he probably don't want to have nothing to do
with him, you know, no more.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (59:39):
But but the guy has a has a mental problem.
And that last caller, you know some people that support him.
It don't matter. If this guy walked off a cliff,
they would be right behind him and they would fall
down right with him, like the Epstein fowls. Why are
they releasing all the files? What is this guy trying
to hide? I mean, was he messing around the little girls?

(59:59):
I what's going on?

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
Marvin? Good call ma. I appreciate it. And that's a
solid question. Somebody mentioned me last night, Wait a minute,
and it was about what he just said, and I
can't remember. It was sort of like a blocked out thing.
I'm looking for it.

Speaker 3 (01:00:12):
They had him.

Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
It was like a doctored AI generated thing with the
president and like a young female and was like, what
happens if somebody had put that up as a meme,
which is a solid question. My guess. The reaction would
be swift and hateful from a lot of people saying that,
how dare they somehow put the you know, the current
president of the United States in a situation that would

(01:00:33):
make him look like he was you know, I got I.

Speaker 2 (01:00:35):
Really have to have to say that if if if
our president came out and said, I am really sorry
I should not have this was in such bad taste,
I am really sorry I put this thing out, admitted it,
apologize for it, that would make me feel a little
bit better. I know people don't want to hear it,
but my goodness, can this guy take responsibility for anything

(01:00:57):
and or uh, you know, accountability.

Speaker 1 (01:01:01):
I have heard him say that he's made a mistake
when he's hired people who have left who have talked
bad about and he said they're hateful and nasty people. Yeah, yeah,
in the enemy or something along those lines. Let's see
who's been holding the longest. Let's get to Tyler, and
then Tom and Bethel and Frank and Marie or Mary Marie.
I will get her next. I like it when the
women call no disrespect Tyler. I mean, you know, but

(01:01:24):
I'm just trying to, you know, branch out a little bit.
What do you know, Tyler.

Speaker 6 (01:01:28):
Fotball as well?

Speaker 8 (01:01:28):
How was everybody doing today?

Speaker 9 (01:01:30):
Good?

Speaker 1 (01:01:30):
Appreciate you listening being a part of the show. What
do you have on this big thing?

Speaker 17 (01:01:34):
I think more than anything is there's a pandemic with
conflict resolution right now. I think we have a lot
of the best analogy I used or heard was in sports.

Speaker 11 (01:01:44):
You know how we have instant replay and we can
get a review screen. An official may see a play
on the field in his position of the field as
he saw it, and he caught it as it was. However,
we have replay that's allowing us to nowell parts in
all angles of the play. It's not necessarily.

Speaker 17 (01:02:03):
Saying the official that made the call was wrong, but
we have the science or the technology to give us
the full scope of it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
Take it back to this issue. It does to a point,
But how does that relate.

Speaker 23 (01:02:14):
To this because it's more about the point about where
we are as a as a country and how everybody
seems to want to get into a fight. And I'm
talking in regards to conflict resolution the actions that were
done that No, there's no you know, you don't give
any kudos to that that should never have been sent
out done. But when is it going to be when

(01:02:37):
we as a country start to unify together? No matter
what you might like Coca cola, I might like pepsi,
you know, but the same thing both like soft drinks, right,
And it's it's really hard because everybody has a perspective.
Somebody's gone through something in their past that they have
a you know, a hair up their back if you will.
And it's not saying that their position is wrong. It's

(01:02:59):
just our player are positioning or where we saw that situation.
That's how we viewed and how we saw and absorbed it.
Does that make sense?

Speaker 1 (01:03:07):
Yeah, I think Tyler, that's a good call. I appreciate it.
I just find it hard to believe it. Maybe he's
just an old, racist white guy. And I'm a middle
aged white guy saying that because most of us and
I have friends that are darker skinned family in fact,
and some people have darker skin, and there are a
lot of angry, bitter, older people about some stuff that
has happened to them, though it's mostly white folks with

(01:03:31):
power and stuff going along with it as somebody else's
message to and I'll just say because I touched on
it last night and I talked to Willie about it
a couple of weeks ago. You know, Obama deported seven
million people in his eight years eight to sixteen, and
there were not riots, and there were not people that
were US citizens dragged out of cars and treated somehow
less than and sent out of the country even on

(01:03:53):
an oops in that circumstance, right, and I don't recall
in rightly or wrongly people and they should not be
interfering with ICE agents and border patrol doing their work.
Observing from a distance is another scenario. But Obama did
that and it was really quiet and got it done,
and they've become nowhere close to that number just a

(01:04:13):
year into this second term. So it might be a little,
you know, a little upset because Obama did that better
in the economy of that time, was better possibly, And
that's what other people have messaged me saying, it's not
just me observed. I mean, that's is that crazy?

Speaker 2 (01:04:26):
No, I think that there is some level of wanting
to catch up to and beat those numbers, because those
are some really big numbers on immigration. For But what
I wanted to say about Tyler real quick. I understand.
There's points of view, is what he's saying. Conflict resivolution,
and you'll and people see things from their own point
of view, from their own past experiences and things like that.

(01:04:48):
In terms of the post that he did with the Obamas,
that everybody should be able to look at and say.

Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
It's fairly that's not cool at all. I think most
children could look at that and go that's probably hate. Yeah,
it's not everybody. It's not like Danny Corbett who was
a British actor who was in the Operation Snatch, which
was a movie about the Barbary Apes where they had
military guys from the UK dressed in ape outfits. They
were small people, uh in the in the service because

(01:05:15):
they felt that there was going to be some type
of weird thing where they would lose the war if
there was a lower population of Barbary apes on the
island there. Yeah, I know I'm full of useless information,
but that would be different that that was that was
a historical thing. This is just hateful.

Speaker 2 (01:05:31):
Yes, that was a long while. You take the two
seventy five loop on that one.

Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
I did you ever drive that? I've driven that just
for fun to killed time and to clear my head
in a dysfunction on some rock music. Put yeah, we

Rock here with Jarell Dumford, founder and Glutton. I I'm
acting like you and Chick.

Speaker 2 (01:06:37):
You both do so many shows all weekend long, and
now here I am. Yes, I'm back to do nine
to midnight relationship radio. It's like a fun where we
break down, like the really the nitty gritty. The stuff
that we really do care about is relationships.

Speaker 1 (01:06:53):
That's true. It's true. Everything's about relationships. Even in Olympic sport.
There's a lot of it going on over in Italy,
a lot of sports. I like the winter sports. I
don't like to be out in it, but I mean,
if you're going to be, you know, why not. Do
you have a favorite I do? Yeah, an activity that
you like to watch.

Speaker 2 (01:07:11):
Well, I love the Winter Olympics because I love ice
skating a lot.

Speaker 3 (01:07:15):
I love figure skating.

Speaker 2 (01:07:16):
I grew up in Connecticut and we used to all
put our skates on and go skating up at the
pond right up the street, and we'd be soaked and
then put our stuff on the fireplace and then as
soon as it was dry, we'd all go back out again.

Speaker 1 (01:07:28):
Nice. Yeah, time, so fun and you like into it
like big time watching the Olympics and everything. They keep
adding stuff, but like I remember, people were outraged about
snowboarding and I loved that.

Speaker 2 (01:07:38):
Yeah, I love and skiing, and you know, I mean
they have some really fun winter sports, but yeah, I
love I love ice skating and watching it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:47):
The cross performance. Yeah, the cross country skiing I think
is good. And don't they have an odd thing where
they like you ski and then you shoot. Also, I
have no idea what the hell that is called, but
I think that is tremendous and I have no somebody's
got to know what that is. Uh, but it just
seems like it's not the Nordic combined. That's where they
jump and everything else, like the old ABC open for

(01:08:09):
like the agony of defeating that poor guy on that
big like this, you know, skeche ends up like becoming
a mess of himself. I think he didn't get hurt
that bat or they wouldn't have kept playing it. We
were talking about that off the air.

Speaker 2 (01:08:19):
The hockey's great, Yeah, hockey, A lot of hockey fans
in this country.

Speaker 1 (01:08:24):
Absolutely, you get some blue jackets. I think they are
competing NHL players and stuff. I mean that's a global
kind of scenario. I love the speed skating because they're fast,
and I just I'm really good at that. I remember
going downtown to the U when it was on Fountain Square.
Haven't been to the New place to skate in the
winter time and around Christmas and all, but I can

(01:08:44):
skate fast straight, but the turns I'm not really good,
Like I got to hit the wall or fall. It's
a lot of ugliness. I'm not an OLYMPI do you
have something that you could do, like if you if
you could, if you let's maybe you don't have the skills,
but if you could pick one or two events, you're like,
this is the thing I think I would enjoy because
I like like the bob sled thing because it's kind

(01:09:05):
of like getting on a sled and going down a hill.
It's so scary. Yeah, and you have like at least
the bob sled, and I think they give you a
helmet to protect yourself, which is more than I ever had,
like exactly try to avoid trees and things. I mean,
it's a different type of scenario. Do you have any
that you go, yeah, this would be the thing besides
the skating.

Speaker 2 (01:09:24):
Well, no, I don't think I would be able to
do summer Olympics.

Speaker 3 (01:09:29):
Maybe I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:09:30):
I mean I ping pong. Oh they don't call it
ping pong.

Speaker 2 (01:09:34):
They Dennis Dennis I would do for summer. I could
do sign volleyball. I I used to love sand volleyball.
Big seems like a summer thing, but they are. There's
summers with with with. I'm not a huge winter sports person.
You don't like the I do. When I grew up
playing ice skating, that's all. I really slid riding. But

(01:09:54):
I wouldn't want a Bob's No, I'm not giving you anything,
not giving me.

Speaker 1 (01:10:00):
Don't have anything for it.

Speaker 3 (01:10:01):
Yes, sairly ice skating, that's it. That's all I got.

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
The lows. You mentioned the lush earlier, and that's just
basically like an old school sled. You're basically on two blades, right,
Just good luck.

Speaker 3 (01:10:12):
On an icy thin trail.

Speaker 1 (01:10:15):
Curling. I love curling. They've got the stones. I think
they come from Scotland or someplace, and they all come
from there. I don't know why you can't get a
stone from like one of the quarries in Ohio. I
used to live a half mile from a quarry. I
go fishing there. You weren't supposed to go in. I
shouldn't have said that, but there'd be bass in there somehow.
I don't know how they got there.

Speaker 2 (01:10:33):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:10:33):
But I love the curling. You know why I like
the curling. Yep, yep, yep, yep. You got a brusher
and you got like a like a shove of the
thing and they like they work it and you go, yep.

Speaker 2 (01:10:44):
I don't know what the yip in the yap in
it means, but the yip into the app in you
there's a lot of yippin in the Apan.

Speaker 3 (01:10:49):
That's why I don't, you know, I don't know because
I will not.

Speaker 1 (01:10:54):
I don't like the yips in the apps.

Speaker 2 (01:10:56):
I mean, you know, I didn't even know they did
it because I don't really watch curling.

Speaker 1 (01:11:00):
Terry, thank you so much. It's called the Wait a minute,
where did it go? I just adjusted he had the
shooting thing there for me and explained what it was,
the biathlon. Can you do something else and then you
shoot cross country skiing or something the other, just like
you know in the world, you might have to go

(01:11:20):
do that to eat. See, I see that as like
a it's not an activity for fun necessarily. It's winter
and you've got to go out there and you're doing
cross country skiing and you're looking for like a deer
or like an antelope or whatever the hell's out there
so you can feed your family. That I understand. Or
you're at war and you're trying to protect your people
in that type of scenario. Otherwise it's just actipical.

Speaker 8 (01:11:44):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:11:45):
Back in the day, You're right, people did that.

Speaker 1 (01:11:47):
They're like, we'll hold on to that. Yeah, this is good,
we'll compete. You're like, I'm just trying to eat. I'm
not worried about that. I don't know the bob sleigh
which is different than the bob slid. Oh okay, I
don't know the difference. Or maybe someone five one, three
seven for ninety seven, eight hundred, the big one.

Speaker 2 (01:12:03):
There are people who know Hoki hockey would be a
good one for winter sports for Americans to do skating, hockey, Yeah,
freestyle skiing, seeing snowboarding, snowboarding.

Speaker 1 (01:12:16):
We have some great you know Olympic snowboarders here. Yeah,
let's give you a chance to sound off. So are
you into the Olympics. Do you have a favorite sport?
What could you do if you would do one? And
I think I think most people could do the curling
because I kind of picture that and I like watching
the women do it. Uh, that's not a sexist thing.
Don't look at me that way.

Speaker 2 (01:12:32):
I'm not. I'm not, I'm not, but I mean it
just it's curious.

Speaker 1 (01:12:40):
I don't know, but the yipping and the apping I
love and in the other I just you know, I
like I like the curling because you can drink. It
seems like it's like sort of like a corn hole.
You could have a beer in a hand. And I mean,
if somebody were to smoke. I'm not advocating that smoking
is bad for you, you know what I mean, but
I would I think you could have a drink and

(01:13:01):
still do the curling. I think it's a multi tak Yeah,
I mean you could drink in and enjoy your leazer.

Speaker 25 (01:13:07):
Hi.

Speaker 3 (01:13:07):
You know athletes at the Winter Olympics.

Speaker 1 (01:13:10):
Right they're doing that. But I'm saying that we could
do that. That's like, that's something I could say. Okay,
I could have a beer and still shove the rock
down whatever that lane is and have somebody else. You
could be my sweeper, and then I would sweep for you.
We'd be a team because it's a team activity. Well,
let's try it, you know what I mean. Yeah, it's
good to independence And Mike was Stirling and Donnade on

(01:13:32):
the Big One seven hundred w welw, Mike, what about it?
What's your favorite Olympic sport in the winter time? And
do you have one or two that you think, Oh,
this is for.

Speaker 26 (01:13:39):
Me, man, I like to lose its way up high.
I don't know what that's Callay, come down the big
giant slope on the Yeah, you know, well I like that.
But like you're saying, with curling, I feel like I
could be the John Daly of curling. You could get
some some brush fields in and have a bourbon out
there while I'm doing it. Oh yeah, See why I
couldn't get a crew together.

Speaker 10 (01:14:03):
See.

Speaker 1 (01:14:03):
I don't think there's anything wrong with it. And I
know there are some people. A buddy of mine he's like,
how can you You're making fun. I'm not making fun.
I'm trying to understand, like, see where I could fit
in because like the Summer Olympics, I could not compete
with the table tennis people. I'm a ping pong guy.
Ping pong is not the same as table tennis. Table tennis.
They will like literally the ball could like crush you.

(01:14:23):
It will go through there. It's different.

Speaker 9 (01:14:25):
Wow.

Speaker 26 (01:14:26):
If there was one sport I think I could do,
it would be curly.

Speaker 1 (01:14:31):
I appreciate it. Man, Thank you for being a part
of the show and listening. We appreciate it see like
curling is like it's a it's a it's a communal thing.
I mean I could see it. We could be over
at mainstream.

Speaker 2 (01:14:41):
You and Mike can be partners. Why I don't need
to be a partner. But you know what I really
used to love and and sterling. I think this is
a little bit lost on this country right now, is
that you know, the Olympics. We used to all sit
around the TV and watch the Olympics and it was
so much USA pride and things like that.

Speaker 1 (01:15:01):
Doesn't feel like that even for me. And I mean
like you don't like that. I mean, you know, I
love it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:05):
I feel like it's not we used to all really
rally around our team.

Speaker 1 (01:15:12):
I think we still do. You don't think that people
are rallying around this team. You don't like deep beat
like in our head way allus USA US. I can hope,
so I can feel it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:21):
I mean, you know, it's nice to like other countries too,
but you know, rooting for our you know, our pals,
yea all getting along that would be nice.

Speaker 9 (01:15:29):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:15:29):
And there'll be a lot of Olympic babies there always
are in that Olympic village. They got in the winter,
they got to stay warm. Yeah, I mean it just happens.
It is like, you know, there's going to be fern babies,
most likely from everybody snowed in. There'll be Olympic babies
every year they do it. They rush out the condoms
or like, please don't be making babies with the enemies. No,
we're all getting along kumbaya. It's the Olympic season. We're

(01:15:50):
all going to do the lusee together. And that is
not some type of you know, metaphor euphemism or something
along those lines. Five point three seven four nine seven
eight hundred big one your chance to get interacted, you know.
The other thing I was thinking about, and this is
an odd thing, Donna. If you've in and around the
Tri State for any period of time, most of us

(01:16:11):
have friends or family do stuff for P and G.
Right here at iHeartMedia seven hundred WLW want to take
our hats off to our P and G friends. And
I start thinking about the Bob Sled. I start thinking
about a couple after a couple of people hopping in
the bob sled and they're going down to the Bob sled
and the lose or whatever the hell that is and
there's a sweaty and you talked about that. You're out

(01:16:34):
playing in the snow. It's smelly. You need like some fabreeze.
You need to spray it down. You got to neutralize that.
You know somebody who works at P and G who
does some for breeze stuff or some other like P
and G stuff, some Procter and Gamble stuff. And you
want to show them some love. You want to get
them some attention and some FaceTime on the Big One.
It's easy text us your name or their name, maybe

(01:16:56):
your own, if you want to get into that five
to one, eight eight one and be listening and then
here at the Big One and iHeartMedia, will maybe show
them some love and stuff. But I mean, seriously, for
breeze should be They probably have lots of it spraying in,
like all all the like, the all the skates, definitely
the skates.

Speaker 3 (01:17:12):
The culture.

Speaker 2 (01:17:14):
Yeah, I mean probably most things, even your your your snowsuit,
who probably needs it.

Speaker 1 (01:17:22):
Yeah, I mean, it's it's all those things. And I just, uh,
I'm pretty geeked up and excited. I remember being a
tiny sterling and it was I guess it was the
eighty Olympics and I was just a small fry. And
I remember at my aunt and uncle's house. My uncle
Malani had this little baby TV which today would be
you know, on your wrist almost uh, and he had
it there in the dining room and we watched it.

(01:17:43):
Had to not I don't think it could have been live.
It had to have been the replay of the team
USA hockey beating the Russia.

Speaker 3 (01:17:49):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:17:50):
And I vividly remember being there that night and watching
that at my aunt and uncle's house as a kid.
I don't know why I was over there, maybe sitting
they were watching me or something.

Speaker 2 (01:18:00):
And this takes when you think of Winter Olympics and
or winter sports period, that that is one of the
greatest moments in history.

Speaker 3 (01:18:10):
For sure.

Speaker 1 (01:18:10):
Absolutely. I'm wondering, do you have any other that sticks out?
I mean, because otherwise there's like random different events and
activities that sort of.

Speaker 2 (01:18:18):
I knew, like Dorothy Hammel, she was on the Wheaties
box back then. We used to love watching the Olympics.
Dorothy Hammel was you know, was was a big one.
There was that controversy between Tanya Harding and remember that
I can't even.

Speaker 1 (01:18:38):
You remember the villain and not the hero. And then
she had like the boyfriend of the husband, Gluy or
whatever it was. She was like they team out the
like piped her or whatever. It was terrible.

Speaker 14 (01:18:48):
They hit her.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
Knee and tried to it was off awful, awful. They
had a movie made on that.

Speaker 1 (01:18:55):
Yeah, I had no And then there was some weird
porn that, uh, what's what's the who's the battie again?

Speaker 14 (01:19:00):
On that?

Speaker 1 (01:19:01):
The villain?

Speaker 3 (01:19:02):
Oh god?

Speaker 1 (01:19:03):
But the other one tannnya harding. She did like some
She had to make money somehow because she lost not
a lot Olympic love after that.

Speaker 2 (01:19:10):
No, I mean everyone she was. She was villainized for sure.

Speaker 1 (01:19:15):
Bill Fi, Bill Fi, Oh, she was villainized.

Speaker 3 (01:19:17):
Villainized. I just made it worry.

Speaker 1 (01:19:19):
It's all right, we can do that, you added to
the lexicon. Well, I will tell you she was.

Speaker 2 (01:19:23):
It was interesting because everybody just could not wait to
see her and hate honor and everything else because we
knew that she was trying to get Nancy Kerrigan out
of the competition because everybody loved Nancy Kerrigan and she
was the favorite to win the ice skating champion.

Speaker 1 (01:19:39):
Now, wasn't it like her mom? That was sort of
like in the forefront of that a little bit and
she supposedly didn't know and then she was shocked or something.
I don't remember all of it. It's been a long
time ago. See, that's it's cutthroat, man. You don't want to.
I mean, you cross these skater women. They will make women.
You've heard about guys doing that.

Speaker 3 (01:19:58):
Who was the big skate? Is it Scott Hamilton? Is
that right? The big the big skater.

Speaker 2 (01:20:04):
He was an Olympic champion and he was in the
limelight for a long time.

Speaker 27 (01:20:09):
Don't forget about Sean White and the snowboard halftime pipe.

Speaker 1 (01:20:12):
That's right, Yeah, Sean watch tremendous. He's like one hundred
and twenty six years old now, he's been doing it
from the beginning. I'm still a beast too.

Speaker 15 (01:20:19):
He really is.

Speaker 1 (01:20:20):
Y man knows it's that Sean thing. They're they're like kindred,
you know what I mean. If there were more sterlings,
i'd have a guy that Stirling dude.

Speaker 27 (01:20:27):
It is smelled differently though, Well, yeah, I think he
I think it's I think he's a u n.

Speaker 1 (01:20:31):
Yeah, that's high falutin Sewan. You're like regular guy Sean,
which we like, which is a nice thing. Yeah, man, absolutely,
Do you have a favorite winter activity sport? I should
call it a sport. I shouldn't say activity. Uh, I
don't know.

Speaker 27 (01:20:44):
I do love this snowboard halfpipe stuff. I've always been
a fan of that growing up. That was just kind
of the cool event that everybody watched, Like you know,
the the moguls.

Speaker 1 (01:20:52):
I like moguls on skiing. I think that's a lot
of fun. I'm trying.

Speaker 27 (01:20:56):
I'm like trying to run through my head all the
other events that there are. The slalom I like a
good one.

Speaker 1 (01:21:01):
Yeah, they know what And if you haven't noticed, if
you're on seventy one or seventy five right now, you
could be driving down Montgomery Road or whatever else to
seventy five. We're all doing the pothole slough and it
will and it will get worse before it gets better.

Speaker 27 (01:21:17):
My tire fell victim the one on Friday, Oh no,
really on Thursday.

Speaker 1 (01:21:21):
Now, you got to keep track of where it is,
document it, and I think the city as well as
the state, if not the county. There's something on the
o dot website where you might be able to get
some type of love back. I don't know how much.
I don't know how we should get Kathleen Fuller. Yeahh
there you go. Yeah, so that's reported. Yeah, I gotta
do it. We're here to help, that's what we're here for.
It's tough. You know what else is going on? There's

(01:21:42):
a super Bowl tomorrow. You might have heard of it.
It's the sixtieth one. It's happening in the Bay Area.

Speaker 12 (01:21:47):
X X.

Speaker 1 (01:21:48):
Well that's sixty in the Roman numerals. Yeah, I remember
the Roman numerals. It's the Puppy Bowl twenty two. That's
double lex and two eyes doing that. And Dave Purdam
bring the form ESPN chalk conversation I had with him.
Donna's getting ready to check out. She's going to be
back in after Chick nine to midnight. Right, Yes, got
your nuestion.

Speaker 2 (01:22:08):
I wish I would have been on for that, but
I'm gonna listen to it on my way home because
there's so much money being bet on the Super Bowl,
and there's so many side bets that you can make,
prop bets that like how long the national anthem is
going to be? I mean, there's so many who's going
to get the coin toss? I mean there's a ton

(01:22:30):
of prop bets, and I think a lot of people
are going to win.

Speaker 3 (01:22:34):
A good amount of money and louse a good amount
of miney.

Speaker 1 (01:22:38):
Usually the house gets That's why they build those nice
resorts and stuff. But it's nice to play and if
you're in it, and so forth. What we're to do
is this because I talked to David Bringka pain Perdam
from ESPN Chalk. He covers sports betting in the business
of it. We'll get into his head about the nuts
and bolts of how big this super Bowl is, what
that means overall, and some of the stuff going on

(01:22:58):
that's not so great orts betting that they're trying to
weed out some of the problems. So that's coming up
after your five thirty report. Brady Hopkins has that Chick
Ludwig will follow after six and then Donna d comes back.
And I'm going to roam the earth and look for
food and a place too well, and I will gather
things for tomorrow in the super Bowl in the halftime shows.

(01:23:22):
We have many to choose.

Speaker 2 (01:23:23):
You know, I really think all of us should get
Monday off after the super Bowl. I think that needs
to be a national holiday. Why don't we have that off.

Speaker 1 (01:23:32):
I used to have that off in high school. Oh man,
it was great.

Speaker 3 (01:23:36):
That is that is a you know.

Speaker 1 (01:23:38):
That you know what it is here tomorrow or Monday. Well,
if you don't show up, it's the brown bag flu,
and that's not good. Everybody show up. You're gonna show up.
I think we're out of time. We're late. Thank you,
Sean McMahon doing what he does. Donna de back after nine.
That chick is next. After a conversation with David bring
to Baine Pernham from ESPN chalk. I'm sterling, She's Donna

d the home of the Reds. News Radio seven hundred
WLW cent Anata meet Patty Thomas.

Speaker 16 (01:24:05):
Patty's dream was to be a movie star, but after years,
her dream was going nowhere. She was ready to give up.
Then she started listening to my show. She heard the
latest news and financial information, inspiring guest. Patty didn't become
a star, she became the highest paid agent in Hollywood,

(01:24:25):
raking in that fifteen percent from all of her star clients.

Speaker 1 (01:24:30):
