Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Five o five.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
At fifty five r C the talk station Fridays. Some

(00:31):
excuse me, must be Friday. There's a woo hoo confirmation
from Joe Strecker, Executi producer of the fifty five Cary
Morning Show. My name is Brian Thomas, hosted the fifty
five Krsey Morning Show. And it being Friday, of course
I love Friday's Tech Friday with Dave Hatter and apologies
right out of the gate head to use a cough

(00:52):
button there. Soon enough, this will go away, at least,
I hope so at least I know I'm not alone
in this cough struggle too. If you care to call,
I'd love to hear from you. Enjoy talking to the listeners,
and rather hear your voice than my own. Five to one, three, seven, four, nine,
fifty eight hundred and eighty two to three talk or
pound five fifty on AT and T funds. Remember fifty

(01:15):
five care Sea dot com. Get your iHeart Metia app.
I are over there listening to Jay Ratliffe, yucked it up, Yes,
say a lot of great stories with Iart media aviation
expert Jay Ratliff David Rharsini with the book The Rise
of bluing on another great conversation or an opportunity to
get the book right there. The information from Bob Wetterer
about the wish Tree program back in full swing holiday season.

(01:38):
Let's think about giving to those in need. So easy
to do with the wish tree. They are all over town.
So grab an ornament off the yell wish tree and
make it really easy for you to give to someone
in huh, someone in need. So there you go. Fifty
five care Sea dot com for all that and so
much more. Coming up on the morning show mentioned tech Friday,
the day of Hatter Today. Hey, apparently burglars have figured

(02:02):
out how to jam Wi Fi powered security cameras. I
guess it'd be like your ring doorbell. All right. That's
why we have Dave around so we can know how
to well what they're doing and maybe a workaround to
prevent them from hacking into him. Parents should buy dumb
phones for kids. Sextortion cases among teens are on their

(02:25):
ice a reason for dumb phones. We talked to them
about dumb TVs, since all the TVs seem to be
smart these days. In fact, I went and searched for
dumb TVs after our conversation about smart TVs and all
the spying they're doing on you. I think the creepiest
thing about those is it's one thing to be hooked
up to the internet, make it really easy for you
to log into Netflix or one of your favorite streaming services.

(02:47):
Is the idea that they have cameras and microphones in them,
and you know, we see well, no kidding, Thomas gets
twenty twenty four, but that they're actively listening to you.
That just creeps me out. I don't know, I'm sorry,
I remember reading nineteen eighty four orwell, this all sounds

(03:09):
so orwellian, and yet we invite this into our own homes.
We go out and pay money for someone to surveil us,
and you go ahead and admit it. You've got it
acts a little little smart device. You tell me what
blah blah blah blah blah. My sister's got one of those,
and I will admit being over to her place and
you can talk to it's it's awesome in so many ways.

(03:33):
I want to hear this following song and it'll play it,
But then there's a creepy reality that it's listening to
you all the time. So I just I don't want one.
I've been able to live my life this long without one,
And just as a matter of principle, I do not
want to invite George Orwell into my home or big brother,

(03:56):
as the case may be. And I know you, my
listening audience would resis did all day long if the
government came and said you must have one of these
devices in your home, you would be screaming bloody murder.
And I know the flip side of that is, Hey,
we love to have choice in this morning. If I
want to invite one of these things into my home
and listen to my conversations all day long and I've

(04:18):
got nothing to hide. Uh yeah, it is your choice,
but you should really contemplate that latter decision, at least
from my standpoint. And it's Cincinnati cyberwek No. I don't
know what that means. But that's why we have Dave
Hatter Tech Friday coming up at six point thirty and
seven o five in studio the incomparable Peter Bronson. He's

(04:40):
got a new book out and we'll be talking about that,
talk about some of his other books. Excuse me here
real quick. The new book promised Land, how the Midwest
was one that's a story of the earliest setters along
the Ohio River, or battle to survive, opening up the

(05:01):
Northwest charity territory, poverty, starvation, and it says here torture
and abduction by hostile Indians and the British. I suppose
it shouldn't say Indians there, it should say Native Americans. Whatever. Anyway,
Peter Bronson, I love that guy. He's just a brilliant writer.
He writes a wonderful, wonderful book. And we will talk

(05:22):
about Promised Land among other topics during the seven o'clock hour.
It's gonna be wonderful seeing Peter face to face and
Brian Eyebold the Help Squad, Brian's charity. Former Cincin police
officer retired after twenty three, four or five years of service.
Brian is now heavily invested in charity and Help Squad

(05:43):
his charity. We'll hear from Brian about what's going on
with that. Again, it's that time of year, going back
to my comment about Bob and the Wish Tree. So
aight O five for that and then finally, oh my god,
look what's on the schedule at eight thirty. My dear
friend Kimberly the Mediterranean Food Festival, Saint Anthony A Padawas,
You'll be in studio, hopefully bringing along some kibbi and

(06:05):
some other delightful Middle Eastern treats. I dearly love that food,
So feel free to call me at five one, three, seven,
four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two to
three talk down five fifty on AT and T phone.
I'm sure you've heard of by now. Matt Gates. He's
out Withdrew Is, the Attorney general nominee facing the allegations
a sexual conquest with a seventeen year old or something

(06:29):
like that from back in twenty seventeen. The weight, the pressure,
the focus got too heavy for the Trump administration. I'm
sure they wood shed at him and said, you know, Matt,
it's it's it's just not going to work. You got
too many problems on your hands. And since we were
talking about Attorney General of the United States of America,

(06:51):
these sort of looming charges over your head or these
investigations that have happened just just going to make it
too difficult for some of the senators vote for you,
And we don't want to start off on the wrong foot.
Now the question is what's he going to do with

(07:12):
Pete heg Zath. Yeah, the body of Matt Gates wasn't
even cold yet when we have now allegation about Pete
heg Zath. Members the Trump administration described as blind sided
regarding this, going back again, what is it with a
county you're twenty seventeen and sexual allegations involving members of

(07:37):
well potential members of Donald Trump's cabinet. Anyway, Pete, and
this is a goofy. I give you the details because
the police released the report heavily redacted. But the police
investigated this incident around the time it happened, involving Pete
hegzav the man nominated lead the Pentagon. And I think about,

(08:05):
you know, the Epstein tapes and all the claims that
there's so much information behind the scenes that has not
been released regarding what was going on with Epstein at
his house, the videos that he can't cap, the fact
that he was indeed a pedophile, convicted, a total pervert.

(08:27):
You know, we've got Pedo Island, all these noted notables, wealthy, rich,
famous folks hanging out with them, spending time on the island,
And I don't know how you get invited to those circles.
I'm glad I never was, but some weird stuff goes
down among those rich and famous people. We all know that.
We all know that there are many allegations against members

(08:49):
of Congress who have been settled with taxpayer dollars, allegations
regarding sexual misconduct. Are we ever going to see those
come out? Or do we have to wait until one
of them gets swelled a nominated for a cabinet position
and then the details come out? Is this a Republican
only thing? Are Democrats allowed to go out and engage

(09:12):
in crazy sexual activity or what? I think that they
get a pass on it. And this is one of
the reasons I'm a little well libertarian. I don't care
what you do. It's your morality, it's your life, it's
your potentially, if you're a religious person, eternal damnation, whatever,
it's your life. I can't change it. You want to

(09:34):
say you're a chick when you're born a god, knock
yourself out. Just don't try to convince me that it's true.
Got a funny story on that one this morning too. Anyway,
the Trump transition team hadn't been told about this original
allegation before announcing Hegzeth as the head of the penet
to be appointed to lead the Pentagon. So they were

(09:57):
all a bit taken aback when the Monterey Cow, California
City Police release this report about the twenty seventeen allegations
against Hagzeth, again described as a heavily redacted report details
of a night involving alcohol. Uh huh. Seriously, hey, Joe,

(10:18):
do you ever hear of a night involving alcohol not
turning out real? Well, for everybody, that never happens, does it.
None of us have ever had an experience with alcohol
where well we might have regret what we did the
next day. And this one is a rather interesting set
of factual circumstances. Now you can say what you want
about Haxeth, and again I don't care. He isn't How

(10:44):
do people get together these days? I look back at
my dating years and wonder, you know, how does a
man approach a woman if he is interested in her.
You look across the room and you see a beautiful
woman at a bar. Can you even walk over and
talk to her these days? Or is that an assault?
I don't know anyway, The Monterey Police said in this
report that Hegseeth actually got a copy of back in

(11:07):
March of twenty twenty one, because he was, of course
the subject of the investigation. Transition Team however, wasn't told
that a copy of the police report had been given
to him previously, So again, this was sort of a
out of them, Oh my god, I wish we knew
about this ahead of time kind of thing. For Arson
familiar with the transition team. This is another instance of
people being blindsided. So I think there's rising frustration there.

(11:30):
I imagine if this continues to be a drum beat
in the press, and the press coverage continues to be bad,
particularly on TV, then I think there's a real chance
that he loses Trump's confidence. Of course, that means that
Pete Hegseeth goes the way of Matt gats Hexeth old
reporters on Capitol Hill yesterday after meeting with senators about

(11:51):
his nomination, the matter was fully investigated. I was completely cleared,
and through his novel though there was lawyer though he
ignowed that the sexual that well, there was a sexual encounter,
but it was consensual. Now you're gonna hold it against him,
and he had a sexual account encounter with a woman
that was consensual. Let's spring from that consensuality if in

(12:16):
fact it was consensual. Are you thinking ill of Pete
Hegzeth for engaging in a sexual encounter with a woman
who willingly engaged in it with him, I personally wouldn't. Thankfully,
some people try to stand on moral high grounds when
it's convenient for them politically. Anyway, the Trump transition team said, hey,

(12:42):
this report corroborates what Hegzet's attorneys have said all along.
The incident was fully investigated. No charge were filed because
police found the allegations to be false. That according to
Trumps spokesperson Carolyn Levitt, one senator looking in this mark
Waynie Mullen out of Oklahoma. I think he can explain

(13:03):
a lot of the situation. I think he's going to
be just fine. If you read it I either report,
you can clearly see that it was two people flirting
with each other. Well, at least in this case, you've
got a police report, unlike the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, where
people were just pulling things out of their sphincter and
making them up as they went along about activities that

(13:24):
happened in high school This happened after Hegseath had been
divorced from his prior wife. Anyway, his lawyer, a guy
named Timothy Parliatory, said, the police report confirms what I've said,
all along with the incident was fully investigated. Police found
the allegation's false, which is why no charges were filed
and which is true. And that was at the time
he was described as a rising star in Fox News

(13:48):
and worried about the report. Worried about the allegations in
the report, not that they were conclusive that he did
something wrong. Again, it was dismiss It wasn't investigated, He
wasn't prosecuted. It was a couple of drunk people flirting
with each other. He actually paid the woman and got

(14:10):
a non disclosure agreement. Back in twenty twenty, he was
worried about his job at Fox News, and I understand
that as well. That's why there are such things as payoff.
Having worked as a litigation attorney, I can assure you
I settled many cases that were completely defensible where my
client did absolutely nothing wrong. But when you look at

(14:31):
the expensive litigation and the black stain of public opinion,
just looking at the idea that there was a claim.
You know, you know what, I can write a small
check and get this thing sealed, done over with, settled
and out of the public limelight with a non disclosure agreement.
Nobody gets harmed, nobody gets hurt, and we all go
our separate ways. And it would cost a hell of

(14:51):
a lot less money than keeping me retained at whatever,
hundreds of dollars an hour I was being paid. That's
why you settle stuff. And it happens all the time.
They had surveillance video, a video footage from this that
they went to a place called Knuckles Sports Bar. This
was all going on at a hotel. A woman said
things got fuzzy. She suggested maybe her drink was spiked

(15:18):
at the bar. The woman told police she witnessed tech death.
It was a witness there with her acting inappropriately. That's
in quotes, including rubbing women on their legs maybe inappropriate.
I don't know what what's it like going out in
the dating world these days. I can admit that there
were times in my life where I was rubbing a
woman's leg and actually she thought it was quite appropriate.

(15:41):
Talked to my wife anyway. Hexeth described as intoxicated. The
woman seam coherent blah blah blah. Police support showed she
was texting her husband. She told police heg death asked
her who she was texting. They went to the hotel
room together. This is just weird. Pose Sports said she

(16:04):
was texting her husband, the woman who accused them of
sexual improprieties. He was at the hotel with her and
their children at the time this was going on, Hags
that's described Its in the middle of getting a divorced
from his second wife after fathering a child with a
producer at the network presumably Fox News is what they're

(16:26):
talking about. The woman told him that she would tell
her husband she had fallen asleep in another hotel room.
They apparently spent the night together. How do you get
around that? See, the details are all crazy. Both of
them sound like, well, you know, alcohol gotten a little
best of both of them. Yes, they probably fooled around
that night. Is that enough to ruin someone's political career?

(16:50):
And how far down this road are we going to go?
What is okay and what is not okay? Are we
searching for the perfect? I think sometimes as we are
five twenty two fifty five cars the talk station, They'll go,
I'll be right back Saturday, mostly cloudy start, partly clatty.
Later I have forty eight overnight go of thirty four

(17:11):
clouds and a mostly sunny day on Sunday with the
high fifty four looks second thirty four degrees right now
fifty five. Kir Ceed talks days and.

Speaker 3 (17:20):
Donald Jane Trump and I improved this message.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
Five twenty four on a Friday, and a happy one
to year.

Speaker 3 (17:36):
Maybe like to get I.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Tell you you will nag So Matt Gate's out. He
zeth under the microscope now questions whether swirling around, whether
RFK Junior also is now going to go under the spotlight.
I don't know what that guy's done in his life either.

(17:58):
Question just generally speak the hexast stuff, you know. I
obviously nothing criminal there, no investigator and nothing criminally charged.
It's all over with, It's done with. And yes, maybe
it was inappropriate in your mind what he did. Does
that preclude him from being a part of the cabinet?

(18:18):
Does it preclude him? Does it make him incompetent in
the role that he was chosen to fill? Can you
get the most competent qualified person on the planet. I
think of Elon Musk over here in this sort of
independent Doge department. Yeah, Elon Musk has got all kinds
of crazy stuff going on in his background, doesn't he.

(18:41):
That's a real character right there, And you can sort
of analyze him from some sort of moral perspective, and
you might find that you just don't quite cot into
his morality. Look back at Bill Clinton. You know what
bothered me about Bill Clinton. I've said it a million
times since it happened, that whole Monica Lewins thing. You know,
I get that honestly. Look at who he's married to.

(19:05):
For God's sake. Now, if you go ahead and say, oh, Thomas,
that's not right, that's not fair. He was married. Fine,
he lied to us. That's what bothered me. Go back
over the history of presidency in the United States of America.
I bet you're hard president find one that was actually
that committed to his marital obligations or marital vowels. RFK Junior,

(19:30):
Lyndon Johnson Apparently he was a real swing. And you
know what I mean, You can go on and on
and on celebrities galore. Every married celebrity you've ever read
about it in the paper is like, oh my god,
they got like nineteen girlfriends on the side. Food fighters,
Dave grow love the food fighters. Oh well, yeah, he's

(19:52):
not morally perfect either. Who among us is where do
we draw the line? If it wasn't criminal and I
had nothing to do with the performance on the job,
that it didn't involve, you know, a dereliction of duty
or whatever, how far down into the weeds are we
gonna go when we're staring at these candidates, are these
people that have been selected for higher office or for

(20:13):
cabinet positions. I don't know where the moral barometer begins
and ends anymore. This is just why I'm expressing my
outlawed frustration for all this. Yeah, okay, I give Bill
Clinton a pass, And I would have given him a
pass if he had just gone out and said, yeah, denit, sorry,
I'm sorry. But you know what it's like being president
of the United States of America, the leader of the

(20:34):
free world, when you're married to a shrew like Hillary Clinton,
who's evil, and our marriage is politically arranged, and she's
got her own things going over there, We've got her
own arrangement. There are things called open marriages, aren't there.
You just don't telegraph to that to the world when
you're running for president now, do you? Maybe they had
one of those. I don't know, and again I don't care.

(20:56):
I just don't like being lied to. Five twenty seven,
five Karo City Talk Station. Feel free to chime in.
Is this a controversial topic? I don't know. It's Friday,
and I'm looking forward to the holiday week next week already.

(21:17):
back for many.

Speaker 4 (21:19):

afternoon showers and I high forty three tonight down to

(21:41):

For the five gar City Talk Station five thirty two
on a Friday, and a happy one to you one
hour from now tech front of a Dave hat or.
I always love talking to Dave. Hope you enjoy hearing
from it. Peter Bronson in studio at seven oh five,
looking forward to that. And Jesse is on the phone.
Thanks for holding on with the break there, Jesse, and

(22:01):
welcome to the program. Happy Friday to you, Happy.

Speaker 5 (22:04):
Friday, Happy Friday.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah. So I'm twenty nine years old.

Speaker 5 (22:09):
I'm a construction worker for ten years now, and.

Speaker 6 (22:13):
I know about pretty women and things and temptation and
so so do I.

Speaker 3 (22:20):
So anyway, I have to.

Speaker 7 (22:22):
Just be just like this one little thing that popped
in my head.

Speaker 5 (22:26):
Temptation also has to.

Speaker 4 (22:28):
Do with corruption, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
Of course, you know it was.

Speaker 8 (22:33):
Like ten thousand dollars sounds pretty good, or that you know,
or the pretty girl or.

Speaker 4 (22:37):
That you know.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
Well, no, there is a fine there is. There is
a an interesting sort of comparison. Now, one's morality is
an individually determined thing. If you are a person of faith,
then you apparently subscribe to particular rules, doctrine and dogmatic
principles of faith. But if you are not, you may
have a more open in mind when it comes to

(23:01):
those things. But that's a subjective, individually determined thing. That's
why I pointed out some people actually have open marriages.
I don't get that concept, but some people do.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
You know, that doesn't mean that makes some decisions and whatever.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
You know, people make their own decisions. Yes, that doesn't
mean it, but that's not criminal. It's criminal if you're
accepting a bribe. You see, this is where this moral
boundary come becomes blurred. You can suggest that this is
a reflection of a broader character flaw and that someone
who would do this is generally more inclined to be corrupt.

(23:41):
But I don't necessarily believe that those two are the
same because the moral realities are so different between people.
But the law is the law. Accepting a bribe is
accepting a bribe, you know. I mean that is clear defined.
It's in the criminal statutes or codes. I mean, those
are rules that are either broken or or not. But
when it comes to morality, who wrote the rules and

(24:05):
and whose morality we subscribe to? I mean, it's a
fair point to make, but you really have to step
back from it and realize that, you know, we're all
not cut from the same chunk of cloth in those
on those along those lines, you may choose to reject
someone because they don't subscribe to your personal moral philosophy.
And that's okay, that's your choice. That's why we have

(24:27):
these discussions. But when it comes to these, you know,
these allegations, and you know, the guy's drunk out in
a party, he's divorced, he's having a good time, so
he's on Fox News. Oh my god, there's Pete Hegke.
You know, you know Hollywood celebrities. People want to sleep
with them. It's like rock stars just because now if

(24:50):
they have no reason to reject the temptation because they
live by a different moral code, does that mean what
they're doing is wrong. You may say yes, others may
say no. Well, I personally don't believe that particular decision
making on their part has a bearing on or a
reflection on how they are going to be able to
do their job. Going back to Dave Grohl, guy apparently

(25:12):
gets around a lot. I guess he and his wife
have figured and worked that out much in the same
way Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton are still married after
all that controversy and all those allegations going all the
way back to Arkansas, and yet he still became president
of United States of America. Maybe people suggest he was
a very good president. You may feel differently about that.

(25:32):
I kinda do too, But it's crazy. But how far
deep in the weeds are we going to go? I mean,
I'd like these hearings to be focused on competence. Is
Pete Hagg's at the right guy for this job? Is
he competent? Is he the best possible person Trump could
have selected for this job? Do I care what he

(25:53):
did on a Saturday night back in twenty seventeen. Apparently
the police don't. Prosecutors don't. I know it's difficult, but
it's Friday. Why not five thirty six fifty? I have
care to see the talk station bumptiye. Plumbing is always
plumbing done right. When you get plump tight on the job,
you're gonna have wonderful plumbers working on your residential plumbing needs.

(26:14):
And they do it all. Every conceivable plumbing project for
your home, they'll do it. And they have an A
plus the Better Business Bureau. And it's because a customer
service is very important to the plumbers of plumb type.
They really do take great care of you, I've I've
witnessed it myself. I've had them over many times in
my house and they are really great at what they do,

(26:36):
and the price is always right, never selling you anything
you do not need, keeping in touch with you, letting
you know when they're on their way, so there's no
question mark in your mind like one of those guys
gonna show up. They gave me a two hour window.
Always get the phone call ahead of times. I'll be
there and according to GPS, fifteen minutes, get a photograph
of the plumber when they send you the electronic communication
as well. So whether you need a drain cleaned out,

(26:58):
your water pressures, got problems, your toilet's leaking, if you've
got a residential plumbing need from northern Kentucky all the
way up to Dat and everywhere in between, they are
on the job for you. Plus twenty four hour days,
seven day a week emergency service. It's always plumbing done
right and they live by that model. Five one three seven,
two seven eighty four eighty three five one three seven
to two seven tight online. You find them at plumb

(27:20):
tight dot com. Listening to the conversation around our table.

Speaker 4 (27:26):
I think that the Senate should do its job. You
think every nominee deserves a vote?

Speaker 1 (27:30):
What about Ukraine and Russia?

Speaker 3 (27:31):
Ukraine's ready to do a deal with us?

Speaker 5 (27:33):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 2 (27:34):
And be better informed for the conversation around yours.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
We want you to come up with things and ideas.

Speaker 5 (27:41):
Constant chatter and conversation and concern.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Good conversation, substantive conversations. Check in this Thanksgiving and throughout
the holidays.

Speaker 4 (27:48):
When it's never more important.

on fifty five krs the talk.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
Station, can you play John the Fisherman on Fridays? Of
course at this time we always do. It's fly forty
one fifty five KRC the talks agents, and right on
top of the stack is stupid illustration of criminal versus
one's specific sexual perceptions. So going to Marilyn Montgomery County, Maryland,

(29:19):
we have a criminal law. There's laws on the books
that you can't have sexual children for a multitude of
legitimate reasons. This is beyond one's personal perception of morale.
I know there's some people out there that actually believe
that having sexual children is okay and shouldn't be criminal.
I am not among those folks, and I'm glad we
have criminal laws to protect children. Children need to be

(29:41):
protected from evil adults. They do not have the requisite
set of life skills, understanding of things of this nature
and shouldn't be taken advantage of. That's why those laws
are on the books once you're of consenting adult age.
You know, hey, draw your own conclusions. Going back to
my conversation earlier, but heg zeth, I can't give pass

(30:03):
on gates to the extent he had sex with a
seventeen year old. I don't even know if that's criminal
or not. It's just creepy. But he's not in the
race anymore. He dropped out. We have a Montgomery County
teacher in a position of authority in loco parenthis to
your children, standing in the role of a parent while
they have control over your children. That's what teachers are.

(30:25):
In this particular case, we have a Montgomery County teacher
who's been accused of having sex with a fourteen year
old middle schooler. This is a female teacher more than
a dozen times. Has now been sentenced to thirty years
in prison and good luck with it. Melissa Curtis thirty two,
three decades in prison with all but twelve months suspended

(30:46):
in five years of supervised probation after release for three
counts of third degree sex offense. Should be required to
register as a sex offender for twenty five years after
she gets out as a condition of probate not be
allowed to have unsupervised contact with miners other than her
own children. Sentence handed out on the fifteenth of this month.

(31:09):
Pleaded guilty of the sex offense charges. Investigation of the
abuse began in October of twenty three after the victim
came forward with allegations that he had engaged in sexual
acts with Curtis, who was teaching at this Lake Glands
Park Middle School while he was a student. Prosecutor to
say in twenty fifteen, the fourteen year old victim was
volunteering for an after school program and that Curtis, who

(31:30):
was then twenty two at the time, was running Investigators
say the assaults occurred over several months until the end
of April twenty fifteen, in several locations including the school,
inside her car, and her mom's house in Montgomery County. Curtis,
courd of the documents, provided the victim with alcohol and marijuana.

(31:52):
The fourteen year old and that she had sexual intercourse
within more than twenty times while he was in eighth grade.
See all extremely unforgivable and all demonstrably criminal laws on
the books, and thank God for him. Once you're an adult,

(32:13):
those rules don't apply, Oklahoma City, It's Friday naked people
in the news. Police arrested a man accused of gnawing
a person's fingertip off while naked. Police responded to the

(32:34):
E Express near Areno Avenue and Villa Avenue about five
point thirty pm on a Thursday. Callers reported a man
was running around naked in the area and that he
had bit a customer's finger off and ate it. Keep
your stupid mouth shut. Police got there, they found Manuel
Lopez lying naked on the ground with multiple people standing

(32:56):
around him. They observed blood around his mouth. According to
police report, he appeared to be picking something out of
his teeth reportedly wiped his fingers on the officer's sleeve.
Even police reported seeing several puddles of what appeared to
be saliva and blood around the suspect, along with what
was believed to be a piece of skin from the
victim's finger. Police report indicated the victim's right index finger

(33:18):
was bloody and had apparent bite marks. Tip of the
finger also missing from the top joint. Victim's right side
of his face below his eye also swollen. Victim reported
he saw Lopez walking towards him while naked. When he
told Lopez to leave, that's when Lopez jumped on him.
Victim tried to push at Lopez's face away. He caught

(33:39):
the victim's finger in his mouth and that's when he
began gnawing on it. Wouldn't let go until he had
chewed the finger off. Once in the patrol car, Lopez, Joe,
what's the patrol car? Lopez stated that he used meth
amphetamine and water waters and quotes. They say that is
a term commonly used for peace. He was arrested on

(34:03):
suspicion of maiming, assault and battery, and public intoxication. No
uh charge for doing it naked. I guess five forty
six exactly. Yeah, in Hamilton County, that would be an
O R bond. You're right, Joe, Fortunately it wasn't. And

Speaker 8 (35:47):
This is fifty five KRC and iHeartRadio station.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
Find your red tag today five if you want to
do five KRCD talk station. Happy for Ida. Back over
to the stacker. Stupid because nobody wants to talk to
me this morning. I think I set the stage for that.
I apologize anyway. We go to Oklahoma, still Water, Oklahoma, specifically,

(36:14):
where a thirty two year old Stillwater man described as
very cooperative and not under the influence of any intoxicating substance,
or at least appear to be charged with indecent exposure
after allegedly walking down West Sixth Avenue while completely naked.
Tory Evan Finley jailed on a five thousand dollars bill. Obviously,

(36:36):
he's not in Hamilton County either. Joe Penning a December
second court appearance which he can seek a prelimonary hearing
on a felony charge punishable by up to ten years
in prison and a twenty thousand dollars fine on conviction
rested just shy of ten pm, November eleventh, after still
Water police officer Roland Gee dispatched to a convenience store

(36:58):
in reference to a completely nude this is int quotes
white male walking southbound. Quote again. While en route to
the scene, I was informed by dispatch that the second
caller had reported a completely nude white male was walking
southbound from Sixth Street to Saint Charles Street and had
crossed the highway. Cordingly, why are you doing that? I
don't know if we'll find out. After a few minutes

(37:20):
of sitting station are in his patrol car, the officer
saw him right there at Sixth Avenue, walking around a
motel and then through the parking lot with his right
hand in the air pointing toward the sky. Quote. I
ordered the male subject, later identified as Tory Finley, to

(37:41):
get on the ground and put his hands behind his back.
He complied, and I asked him what he was on.
He said he was on nothing. It was not under
the influence of anything. While I was placing hand rey
streets on him, I asked him why he had no
clothes on, and all he told me was Jesus Christ,
his Lord, ends Savior, drudge are made. Finley was very

(38:04):
cooperative and did not appear to be under the influence
of any intoxicating substance. After Finley placed in my patrol vehicles,
Sergeant Gripe opened the door and asked Finley if he
wanted motel staff to get some close form out of
the room. Finley stated he would like his clothes at
the jail. Finlay still very cooperative and answered every question
given him by detention staff. Close quote. See different set

(38:28):
of moral principles right there. It is illegal to walk
around naked in public though. Uh Cartersville Police they said
they arrested a guy named Keith Bradley Turner, fifty seven,
after he allegedly strangled, beat, and threatened to kill a
man at his home on David Street. Officer dispatched the

(38:50):
town to the home, where they found Turner laying naked
and face down on the bed while crying as a tradition.
Victim to police and when the altercation began is when
he tried to leave the home and Turner became irate.
Reports said that Turner began to throw picture frames and
other items at the victim before hitting his dog with
a walking stick. Officer went on to say Turner came

(39:16):
at them in an aggressive manner with his fist clench,
and as a result he had to be tased, charged
with evaggravated assault, two counts of simple assault, cruelty to animals,
and six counts of obstruction of law enforcement. See no
discussion or explanation of the relationship mister Turner had with

(39:36):
the person who he threatened to kill at the home.
Joe drew his own conclusions right there, in the form
of a comedic sound bite which I always truly appreciate.

Speaker 4 (39:49):
Strucker.

Speaker 2 (39:50):
Anyway, if I went three seven, four, nine hundred tight
two three dog count five fifty on AT and T phones,
feel free to call. Maybe you can change the dynamic
of the discussion. Is something more palatable, Feel free to
do that. Otherwise, stick around at least till six thirty

eight hundred and eighty two to three taco with pound
five fifty on at and T punds. You know, President
Biden is still president. Sometimes we might lose sight of that.
I know we're all in transition mode now. Obviously, Donald

(42:12):
Trump's got some problems on his play with Matt Gets
and heg Zeth and the allegation swirling behind him and
Guy May stepped into the last hour. We all have
our own viewpoints along those matters, but not making it
real easy. But Joe Biden's still president. Russia now launching
more sophisticated missiles into Ukraine. Of course Joe Biden is

(42:34):
he I just got to ask goot loud because I
don't think he's in charge anymore. I really don't think
he was ever in charge. We all talked about the
puppet Master doing that for a long time, but he
was just in Peru in Brazil for meetings with global leaders.
Did anybody ever see the efforts of the reporters to
try to get him to even acknowledge their existence? He's
just exactly I mean, they were just screaming that, hey, yeah,

(42:59):
we're over here. Would you answer a damn quit not
a single word out of his mouth completely because seemed
to be completely out of it. I guess he was
in Boston the other day. Forgot who the basketball team
was there? So who's pulling the strings? Who's making the decisions?
Will we ever know the answer to that question? Who's
the one that said we should approve Ukraine's used to
long range missiles into Russia when it requires United States

(43:21):
military force to actually operate them. So we have our
own military operating weapons launched from Ukraine into Russia. Russia
kind of looks at that as an act of war.
I understand that on a lot of levels, we'd be
making the same damn argument. Who made that decision and
right on the heels of the verdict in the Lake

(43:41):
and Riley murder case, that guy's gone to jail for life.
Horrific details, heartbreaking, tear inspiring details. Someone who should never
have been in our country in the first instance engages
in that horrific crime. Fortunately dust has prevailed. Biden administration

(44:05):
now loosening immigration restrictions. Why now, Kamala Harris was running
around campaigning on how they had cracked down on well
three and a half years of a completely wide open
border policies. Now a cracking down now. Biden Department Hoodland
Security launching a new thing. It's the ICE Portal app,
and it's kicking in in December, allowing immigrants to skip

(44:27):
their in person check ins at ICE offices instead check
in with immigration officials via an app orts or phone
or computer. Your Post reporting this reportedly as severe glitches,
does not track a migrant's location if he or she
is using an Android phone or a laptop. Apparently, the

(44:48):
app does not check immigrations for past arrest or outstanding warrants,
allows them to opt out of or contest government orders
to undergo electronic tracking. Post reported it up to one
hundred thousand migrants will be enrolled in this new program's
first wave. Fox News pointing out reminding the rest of

(45:13):
the world, the Biden administration set the record for the
highest number of illegal immigrants entering this country in a
coundar year last year three point two million entries in
one year, surpassing the previous record a two point seven
million that will be counted year twenty twenty two. God

(45:35):
knows what it's going to be at the end of
this year in terms of the counting, and that does
not include God aways. And speaking of God aways, get
a load of this. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro
Maiorcis and FBI Director Chris Ray raised their metaphorical middle
finger refusing to testify before the Senate Homeland Security and

(45:56):
Government Affairs Committee on terrorism threats facing the United States.
Just hours before they were set to show up before
the Senate yesterday, DHS spokesperson said ma Orcas and Ray
won't be attending. Quote. DHS and the FBI have offered
to the committee a classified briefing to discuss the threats

(46:16):
to the homeland close quote that, according to the statement
from the spokesperson, HMM Ran Paul ranking member of the
Senate Oversight Committee called it unacceptable, saying the American people
deserve to hold these officials accountable for their actions under
the Biden administration. Senator Ron Johnson, for his part, said
the threats facing America are so grave they can only

(46:42):
be discussed in a classified setting. That was the justification
from majorcas and Ray. Johnson said, the pair justified not
speaking in front of me because these threats are I'm
reading in a game, because the words when I first
read them still just scare the hell out of me.

(47:08):
The threats facing America are so grave they can only
be discussed in a classified setting. Hearing that, Rick Scott
senators said, well, if that's true, they need to acknowledge
that the Biden Harris administration is responsible for these grave
dangers because of their open borders policy. They are cowards.
The Orchest must face the American people and answer for

(47:29):
the historic failures that allowed for two assassination attempts on
president like Donald Trump and created a wide open door
with terrorists, criminals, and deadly drugs like fentanyl pouring into
our communities. America is less safe because of him. Oh
and parenthetically, murderers like the guy who was convicted for
murdering Lake n Riley. Scary stuff. And you know that

(47:54):
my Orcus and Ray comment that whole idea that we
can't even speak out loud about the threats that you
and I and every other American are facing because of
their open borders policy on the heels of how many
announcements from the FBI over the past year or so,

(48:15):
the worst situation we've ever been in terms of domestic threats.
And I know they like to characterize this and couch
this in terms of, oh, my god, it's the clan
or it's right wing extremist. Yeah, whatever. I'm sure there's
so many clan members and right wing extremists out in

(48:36):
the globe from the one hundred and fifty or so
countries who've dumped their humanity on our southern border that yeah,
that's where the threat comes from. Honestly, maybe there is
that kind of domestic threat going on out there, but
I'm a little bit more worried about foreign actors that
have crept into our country and what their desires and
designs are for the American people. Let's go to the phone.

(48:57):
So what Steve's got to say this morning? Steve thank
you so much for calling it a happy Friday to you.

Speaker 9 (49:02):
Yes, sir, happy Friday. Usually they'll say, go, let's start
with Biden. In South America. My wife and I were
in Brazil in October. We went on our own dime,
not on the taxpayer's dime. That's sort of difference there.
But the answer would be, oh, he you know, they
can walk in chew gum at the same time or
whatever whatever.

Speaker 1 (49:21):
Whatever.

Speaker 9 (49:23):
He can't. So so he can't walk and answer a
question at the same time. So he's got You got
to give him a little break on that, fair enough.
But yeah, well whatever he is the president, he ought
to be able to I mean, he ought to be
able to do a lot of things.

Speaker 2 (49:37):
Also Commander in chief of the American Military, which means
he is responsible for approving long range missile sales. There's
launching into Russia or did he or was it?

Speaker 9 (49:47):
I might wake up screaming tonight just with that in
my mind. But he can't multitask. I was just doing.
I'm going to donate at Hawksworth at nine o'clock this morning,
and for you this little quick we do a little
quick pass. You answer forty five questions. As I was
answering them. While I was on hold, I was thinking
Pete Hegseeth and Matt Gets probably could not donate blood

(50:09):
at nine o'clock in the morning today, but because they
asked a lot of questions about sleeping around and stuff.
But that's for another day. The main reason I'm calling
is and this is really meant for the Stack of Stupid,
but I never want to interrupt the Stack of stupid
by calling during the Stack of Stupid time, because it's
fun to listen to it. This is celebrities wanting to

(50:32):
leave the country. Now, if you've got a dozen properties
around the world, it's kind of easy just to go
live in your house in Paris or you know, wherever,
or wherever wherever. So they're not really going out on
much of a you know, I mean, my goodness, they're
not even having to find a property. They've got them
all over the place. But this is my favorite celebrity couple,

(50:54):
and it's Prince Harry and Megan Markle. Now, they pretty
much were given the heave hoe out of the United
Kingdom and it's like, where are you going to go?
And they went to Canada and they weren't going to
come into the United States when Donald Trump was president.
Now we haven't heard anything from them lately on Trump

(51:15):
getting reelected or so this will be interesting. But if
and you won't remember this because it's trivial, but they
actually moved to Los Angeles maybe the last six months
of the Trump administration the first time. So they kind
of said they wouldn't live in the US when Trump
was president. Then they moved into the US when Trump
was president. And I mean, you're not supposed to know

(51:37):
that or anything. I mean, who cares, right, It's funny
because I'm just wondering are they gonna where are they
going to go? I mean, they didn't want to be
in Canada because it's kind of cold up in Canada.
You know, Los Angeles, you know, that's where they want
to be. I just don't know what they're going to do.
I mean, this will be fun. So let's see if
we hear anything from Prince Harry and Megan Mark and

(52:01):
enjoy your weekends.

Speaker 2 (52:02):
Sorry, thanks man, I appreciate it. And as far as
they are concerned, I have I having a care in
the world what they do, who they I don't even
know really what they're all about. I guess he lives
off of royal money. I don't know what they do
for a living, but if I can make a suggestion,

He said, I've been used for decades as communication devices.
Ceremony displays and as a visual display identifying certain shipboard evolutions.

(55:29):
Needless to say, these flags are pennants are used a
lot more on surface ships as opposed to the submarine service. Yeah,
I would have gotten that anyway, Mike. It was a
beautiful gift. It's a plaque and it's got the signal

always great to have you on the program.

Speaker 4 (59:05):
Always my pleasure, Brian, great to be here.

Speaker 2 (59:07):
Burglars are jamming Wi Fi security cameras. Ah right, would
this be like a ring doorbell type camera? Yeah, Brian,
that's exactly what we're talking about here. And I don't
know why this is a surprise to anyone, because of
course burglars are creative and are always looking for ways
to come up with innovative new ways to steal your stuff.

(59:29):
So they've they've figured out that, you know, Wi Fi
is a fairly common frequency. It's used in all kinds
of devices and well known published and you can unfortunately
go out and get the plans to buy, or buy
the plans rather and make devices that will allow you
to jam these things. Now it's illegal to own a jammer,

(59:49):
but these are criminals, you know. And I always find
that mindset funny that like, Okay, we're going to make
guns illegal, criminal.

Speaker 10 (01:00:00):
To steal your stuff and might kill you to do it.
So I don't care about your laws.

Speaker 2 (01:00:04):
Or when technology catch up, I'm going to buy a
three D printer and just print one.

Speaker 4 (01:00:09):
Well yeah, yeah, exactly, So.

Speaker 2 (01:00:11):
Genie's out of the bottle man. It's just you can't
criminalize yourself into into protecting the world. It's just impossible.

Speaker 10 (01:00:21):
So while it's illegal to own these devices, you can
buy one or build one and then basically jam the
signal from the cameras. And I guess there's a couple
of things you need to think about. First off, don't
advertise to the world you're going on vacation on social
media and tell criminals you're you're a good source.

Speaker 4 (01:00:39):
And then second, I.

Speaker 2 (01:00:41):
Got a friend. They showed up a listener lunch. I
said dude, every time you go out of town, you
tell everybody when you're leaving where you're going. When you're
on rude, I'm like, it's like a welcome to my house.
I'm not here signed. I don't understand that. I don't
get it.

Speaker 4 (01:00:56):
Yeah, sure, exactly right, I would. I would not.

Speaker 10 (01:00:58):
I mean, you know, when you're home and you want
to share your pictures and talk about your vacation, great,
but don't advertise to anyone and everyone out there that
you're going to be gone and I can come steal
your stuff. And you know, knowing that it's possible to
jam these cameras because obviously increasing number of people buying
these things for security, and while I've got my own

(01:01:19):
issues with that for the privacy and security reasons, you know,
you think you can depend on this to help keep
you safe. You think it's going to send it alert,
you think you might call the police. Well, they jam
it and then you know, go and do their thing anyway.
So there really is no defense for this at this point. Again,
wi FI is a well known published spec You know

(01:01:40):
about all you can do other than be aware of
this is a problem is you know, instead use a
wired system's.

Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
Say that's what I've got.

Speaker 10 (01:01:48):
Hard wire doesn't mean doesn't mean they can't catch your
power or whatever, Brian, But you know, use a wired system.
Those are typically more expensive and more inconvenient because you've
got to run the wires. One of the things that's
so nice about these types of wireless cameras as in
many cases they even have like solar panels. You can
put it anywhere, right, you don't have to run a
wire to it, you don't have to run power to it.

(01:02:09):
So yeah, I get the allure, but at the same time,
you know understand that if you're relying on this, it
can be jammed. The other thing you can do is
you can buy cameras that have their own internal storage.
Now that's not going to send an alert, but at
least if you do end up getting robbed, you could
retrieve the storage card from it later and then you know,

(01:02:29):
share that.

Speaker 4 (01:02:30):
With the police.

Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
Good point on that one.

Speaker 10 (01:02:33):
So, yeah, it's not a fool proof system. If you
have these, don't just assume that they can't be jammed.
And you know, increasingly criminals are are looking for ways
to interfere with the wireless signals and these electronics.

Speaker 4 (01:02:45):
I think maybe as real.

Speaker 10 (01:02:46):
Far back as last year, we talked about key fob jammers,
and you know all the different ways they're stealing cars
using similar types of techniques, so it's it's something to
know about.

Speaker 2 (01:02:57):
All right. Well, I just heard from my friend my
room mate would be amused by any such visitors. So
apparently someone's still there when he goes out of town.
Well played, Eric, you know I love you man. He's
my favorite meme guy out there. Anyway, he's listening. Dave
had Or excellent advice for folks. Now, waive if they
cut my power though, my backup generator.

Speaker 4 (01:03:17):
Will go on. Well there you go, see redundancy. I'm
trying needncy.

Speaker 2 (01:03:22):
I'm trying to hang on. We'll book more coming up,
parents buy dumb phones for kids. We'll be talking sex
stortion here in the next segment with Dave hat Or
from Interest. I certainly appreciate Interest I dot com sponsor
in the segment. Very informative it is. And I love
recommending people go to affordable imaging because affordable imaging is

(01:03:43):
where imaging is actually affordable. And I'm talking about your
mri CT scans, ultrasounds, a lung screenings. You know, lung
screens ninety nine bucks at Affordable Imaging Services. I have
no idea what that would set you back at a
hospital imaging department. I bet it'd be thousands.

Speaker 1 (01:03:59):
It's I own it.

Speaker 2 (01:04:00):
I going to a call a scam. But lord almighty,
Affordable Imaging Services, it's low overhead. I'm pointing out ahead
of time. But they have the same equipment hospitals used
to do these scans, and they've been at this more
than forty years now. How is it that they can
be a profitable entity and only charge six hundred and
forty five bucks for an MRI with a contrast and

(01:04:23):
the board certified radiologist support included with that price, you
get an MRI without a contrast, it's four hundred and
ninety five bucks. If I'm talking literally thousands and thousands
of dollars for that scan at a hospital. You know,
that's where there's a massive profit center. You've got a
choice when it comes to your medical care. Hell, you're
out of pocket. It's going to be I bet way

(01:04:45):
more at a hospital imaging center than it would be
for the entire image with the radiologist support that you'll
pay at Affordable Imaging Services CT scan no contrast four
hundred and fifty bucks six hundred with a contrast echo
Cardigram four to ninety five and yes, all these include
the Board Certified Radiologists Report, including the two hundred and
fifty dollars ultrasound. Call the hospital Imaging department because your

(01:05:09):
doctor's going to send you there at some point, or
want you to go there. Ask them what it's going
to cost you after your insurance payment. You're allowed to
do that. Talk to my friend Jeff. He's got thirty
one hundred dollars in his pocket unless he spent it already.
They didn't have to pay because he took my advice
and went over to Affordable Imaging to learn more. Go online.

This is tech Friday with our dear friend Dave Hatter.
All right, parents should buy We talked about dumb TVs
a week or two ago. They do exist out there,
just not in very high supply. But you can still

(01:06:07):
buy a little low tech flip phone, right.

Speaker 4 (01:06:11):
You can, Brian.

Speaker 10 (01:06:12):
And apparently more people, both adults and parents who have
children that are concerned about all the distraction and the
portal that these things create. The bad people are increasingly
looking to buy dumb phones and or like band phones
during school, which I think is a good thing.

Speaker 2 (01:06:29):
I mean, what's idea.

Speaker 10 (01:06:31):
Yeah, let's be real, Brian, you and I both know
if you have a smartphone, I mean, it's basically a
supercomputer in your pocket, and it gives you a you know,
access into just about anything you could possibly imagine. Some
of that is good, much of it is bad, especially
for children when you look at the amount of time
they spend online. The fact that you have people building
apps to hide other apps so that you know, kids

(01:06:51):
can find the latest and greatest thing in their parents
that their parents won't know about it. Even if they do,
they can potentially hide it and you know, whether it's saography.

Speaker 4 (01:07:01):
Yeah, exactly, just the distraction of it.

Speaker 10 (01:07:04):
All the time that's spent doing things it could be
better spent on something else. We're paying attention in school,
for example, or you know, the more just downright evil
things like sex stortion. We keep reading about this in
the press, law enforcement warns about it. You know what
I think is just both startling and despicable statistic here

(01:07:26):
between October twenty first and March twenty I'm sorry October
twenty twenty one. In March twenty twenty three, the FBI
and Homeland Security received over thirteen thousand reports of financial
sex stortion targeting miners, involving at least twelve two Sorry,
I don't know why I can't talk this morning. Find
twelve thousan six hundred victims, twenty suicides, and a twenty
percent rise in case. So it is so hard, it's terrible,

(01:07:51):
it's sick, it's despicable, it's evil, it's heartbreaking, and I mean,
I can understand how a teenager who gets wrapped up
in something like this, you know, eventually kills themselves because
of the shame, the embarrassment.

Speaker 4 (01:08:04):
It's it's so terrible. This is a reminder for everyone.

Speaker 10 (01:08:07):
Sex stortion is sort of a generic ketchall for you
meet someone online, usually using your smartphone, and then they
eventually persuade you to send them some sort of nude
photos or you know, something along those lines, and then
once they have them, they basically say, Okay, if you
don't send me money, I'm going to report this to

(01:08:28):
your parents, I'm going to publish it to your Instagram
account for all your friends or whatever.

Speaker 9 (01:08:33):
Right.

Speaker 10 (01:08:33):
They use it as leverage to get ransoms, and as
they report in this story, you know, once you pay,
then all you've done in most cases is then encourage
them to keep coming back from more money, which is
why I think eventually, you know, people kill themselves.

Speaker 4 (01:08:47):
I mean, it seems just so sick and so tragic.

Speaker 2 (01:08:51):
To this too, Dave, because you put it out before
I've read it a multitude times Online you just stick
a picture into some stupid artificial intelligence appen generator nudy
and they can just claim it. So, I mean, is
our ultimate defense going to be no, I really didn't
take a naked picture of myself. They use some AI
program and that's not me. Is that the best defense

(01:09:14):
to this rather than suicide or I mean, I know, sadly,
for some reason, people feel what necessity beyond my comprehension
to take naked pictures of themselves and send them out
there in the world. That to me is the biggest
epic fail in the whole process. But how do you
know it's real?

Speaker 10 (01:09:31):
Well, you make it an extremely important point. As AI
technology that allows you to create deep fakes get better
and better, it's easier and easier to take a photo
of someone you know, a legitimate photo of just someone
you find online, which would be one of the reasons
to tell your kids the less they share, the better,
and then run it through one of these tools and
create a deep fake nude. You're absolutely right about that,

(01:09:54):
and you know it's entirely possible. It doesn't give any
stats on that in this article, but you know that
some of these situations have been some kind of deep fake.
But you can guarantee, Brian, there's going to be more
and more and more of that. And that's why I
think it's important not only to consider not giving your
kid a smartphone, you know, getting them some sort of
phone that can just do texts and calls that type

(01:10:16):
of thing, but also to talk to them about sextortion.
Make sure they understand it's a real thing. Make sure
that they understand they shouldn't be taking photos like this
and sending them out, and also making them understand that
it is entirely possible someone could deep fake them and
if that happens to them, you know, come talk to you,
talk to a counselor do you know, don't kill yourself,

(01:10:37):
go talk to someone, get some help, and be prepared
to say, you know, this isn't me, I'm getting scammed here.
But I can only imagine how difficult that would be
for you know, a young a child or a teenager
to have to come to grips with something, whether it's
real or not. But the idea of someone would fake
it and then put it out there. I mean, it's
it's really sick, and people need to be aware of

(01:10:57):
this and have these talks. Just heartbreaking, it is, it
really is, especially the status.

Speaker 2 (01:11:04):
I know what young people have to go through. It's
bad enough being a young person generally speaking, but with
modern technology and yeah, parents out there, it's time for
a dumb phone. Okay, just take Dave's advice and get
your kids away from that crap I saw. I think
it was Australia is going to ban young people's access
to these social media platforms across the board. Whether or

(01:11:26):
not that's the right position to take, I don't know,
but somebody needs a step in and protect young people.
In the front line is parents. It's definitely parents on
the front line. And you know we have like the
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act which says you can't use
this stuff unless you're thirteen or have your parents consent,
but it's clearly not working. So coming up since the

(01:11:50):
cyber week, we'll talk about what that means. Dave had
or one more segment Shop twenty two to three for
your firearms and thuty Is or if you a beginner
out there and you're short list for gifts, shot twenty
two to three for them as well. Black Friday. They're
going to be open all weekend long so you can
check out their amazing deep discounts. Twenty two caliber firearms

(01:12:11):
are on special from the renowned Colt King covid to
simple rifles for plinking everything in between, new used handguns, rifles,
finding at twenty two three indoor shooting range. The firearm
store all the accessories you could ever won. And guess
what Ammo. You can buy an entire case of in
stock ammunition. They will knock ten percent off. They have

(01:12:32):
ammo at twenty two three. It's on sale. It's celebration,
I guess of well Black Friday and all things related.
So the range also open all weekend. Wrong, It's a
wonderful range. I love the folks that own it, Weddy
and Jeff outstanding people. The crew is fantastic. They have
a gunsmith on site. You've got it all when you're
working with twenty two three on Route forty two between

(01:12:54):
Mason and Lebanon. Go online find out more. It's twenty
two to three. That's the number twenty two five of
the world three spelled out twenty two to three dot
com fifty five.

Speaker 5 (01:13:03):
KRC ready to elevate your really.

Speaker 2 (01:13:08):
Sixth if you want to think about KERCD Talk Station
an extra special seven o'clock hour with our favorite author,
Peter Bronson in studio. And I know he's in studio
because he's staring at me right now. But we got
one more segment here with Tech Friday's Dave Hatter. Dave's
what is Cincinnati Cyberweek? Which I see is coming up
December third through December fifth.

Speaker 4 (01:13:27):
It is. This is pretty exciting, Brian.

Speaker 10 (01:13:29):
You know a lot of people that aren't in the
industry don't realize how much tech related stuff is going
on in Ohio and the greater Cincinnati region in particular.
You know, Ohio is increasingly becoming sort of like the
Silicon Valley of the Midwest. You know, I might be
hyping it a little, but you know, there's a lot
going on, and this is just one more exciting event.

Speaker 4 (01:13:49):
It's a new event.

Speaker 10 (01:13:50):
For a couple of years, we've had Queen City Con,
which is a three day long cybersecurity conference.

Speaker 4 (01:13:55):
This is a similar thing.

Speaker 10 (01:13:57):
It's going to be held during the week again December third, fifth.
There are all kinds of different events, lots of great
topics and speakers. I'm speaking at it for anyone that's interested,
but they've got a wider array of speakers covering a
lot of cybersecurity and cybersecurity adjacent topics. You can go
to since the AI Week that's since CCI n C
y aiweek dot com. Check out the speakers, check out

(01:14:22):
the venue, check out the sessions. I mean, I'm just
going from the website there's a ton going on. And
for anyone that's interested in this, you know, you don't
have to be a professional.

Speaker 2 (01:14:31):
I was just going to ask you. Yeah, it's open
for anybody, just even the most just inquisitive people. It's
for businesses, for individuals, it's for anybody.

Speaker 4 (01:14:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:14:41):
And if you go to the website exactly right, Brian,
If you go to the website again, you can see
the sessions, you can see the speakers, you can find
topics that will be interesting to you. And I said
since the AI week, it's since the cyber week. Sorry,
I don't lose in my mind this morning, Brian, sincey
cyberweek and you're going to fight.

Speaker 4 (01:15:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:15:02):
Yeah, lots of great topics, lots of great speakers. Again,
you don't have to be a professional. You can be
someone that's looking to get into the industry. You know,
it's about education, it's about networking, it's about community because
when you look at these cybersecurity issues become more prevalent
and more sophisticated. You know, it's important to talk to
other people that are doing this, learn about the things

(01:15:22):
they're seeing, share information because while I typically hate this,
it's you know, it's like a village type of thing.
In this case, I mean you really, we're all in
this together. We have to rely on each other. There's
no way you can know everything about this, no matter
how smart you are or how much time you spend
trying to learn about this. So again, this is an
amazing opportunity to get folks together and talk about this

(01:15:47):
and learn from people that are doing it. And I
promise you everyone there will walk away with a useful
information that they did not have before. Again, if you're
looking to get in the field, you can network with people,
meet people, learn about how they did it. Because a
lot of it is going to be workforce related. Workforce
continues to be a big problem with cyber So again
I encourage people check it out. Since the AI, since
the Cyber Week. I don't know why I keep doing that.

(01:16:10):
I wanted to talk about this, but it's going to
be a great event. I'm looking forward to it, and
I hope to see a lot of your listeners there.

Speaker 2 (01:16:16):
I'm sure you will. It's a very interesting subject matter
and real quick for a park company. We only have
a minute left. I just have to get this out
of my system because I think there isn't a day
goes by that I don't have some kind of conversation
with my son and I'm along these lines, But what
the hell's with bitcoin? One hundred thousand dollars?

Speaker 10 (01:16:34):
It's wild and you know there are people predicting that's
going to get to three hundred thousand a million. You know,
I have a small investment in bitcoin. You know, I'm
not betting my house on it. I'm not putting my
whole nest egg in it. But yeah, I encourage people
to check it out because you know, while it's fluctuated wildly,
if you go back to its beginning, it went from
zero to one hundred thousand dollars per bitcoin. Obviously that's

(01:16:58):
a lot for one bitcoin. It just as a reminder
for folks, it's a fractional thing, right, you can own
fractional bitcoins, and you know, check it out.

Speaker 4 (01:17:07):
It might be I wouldn't I wouldn't bet the farm
on it. I wouldn't put all my money in it.

Speaker 10 (01:17:12):
I don't want to overstate, you know, don't take investment advice,
Dave Hatter, but you know, as it's interesting and it
might be a way for you to help patch your
patch your retirement account if you do look at it wisely.

Speaker 2 (01:17:25):
Yeah, but you just summed it up right there. Why
I just my eyebrows get raised in confusion and bewilderment.
It went from nothing, it's ones and zeros that never existed.
Then you turn the calendar page and the next thing
you know, it's available for the market. It's out there
and people buy, and now it's worth These ones and
zeros out in the ether are worth one hundred thousand

(01:17:48):
dollars apiece. It's just mind boggling to me.

Speaker 10 (01:17:52):
Maybe maybe next week we'll do a deeper dive into
that because it is interesting for people. Again, I'm I'm
going to be really clear to not put all your
money in big point. It's folly and you know you
may you may lose everything, but you've got you know,
really smart people including President Trump now talking about that.

Speaker 2 (01:18:10):
Give me him a lot of credit for the price
of bidcoing going through the roof It was another area
of this conversation. Matt's down the road. I just like
I said, I had to get it out of my
system day. Thank you so much.

Speaker 4 (01:18:19):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:18:20):
Uh at interest it dot com where you find Dave
and the crew businesses, you need someone looking after your
computer interest and Dave has the best team out there
coming up on the fifty. Dave, have a wonderful weekend.
Oh and since we're not gonna be talking next Friday,
I'm off on vacation. Happy Thanksgiving to you and everybody

Speaker 11 (01:19:14):
Spige just I have seven six air pitty five k
CD talk station.

Speaker 2 (01:19:32):
And what a wonderful, wonderful thing bowled on a Friday
in my studio Peter Bronson. Everybody knows Peter from his
enquire days and all the wonderful books that he's written.
I can only recommend you go to Amazon dot com
is a place to find this type in Peter Bronson.
All the books that he's written will come up. Everyone
is simply outstanding, all mostly all on local things, like

(01:19:56):
for example, I think Forbidden Fruit maybe one of my
it's hardly hard to say not in our town, which
is about the king of Smut hustler magazine, Larry Flint,
and all the problems and legal challenges and things that
we face back then. But they Forbidden Fruit, the sin

(01:20:17):
City Underworld, and the supper Club inferno, which of course
the mob had a direct connection with burning down the
Beverly Hills supper club and all the criminal activity that
went along with that. Names from the past like sleep
Out Louis, Peter Bronson. I have so enjoyed your books,
and I really can't thank you, know, if not just
for you know, providing the great entertainment, but for documenting
our local history in just such a fabulous way. Good

(01:20:39):
to see you, and welcome man.

Speaker 8 (01:20:41):
Great to see you. I always enjoyed doing your show.
I love it, and you do a great job, so
thank you for inviting me back.

Speaker 2 (01:20:47):
That's kind of you. This is one of the benefits
of my job. I could speak with people like you.
Last time we talked, it was on the man who
saved Cincinnati, Cincinnati History in Queen City of the West,
and we all learned about the amazing the slaves that
saved Cincinnati. They actually fought brigades. Fantastic, Just one little

(01:21:13):
great lover of the book, but that thing went viral,
like who knew about this?

Speaker 3 (01:21:18):
Exactly?

Speaker 8 (01:21:18):
It's such a great story and we should all be
so proud of that history, and yet it's all been forgotten.
That's one of the things I love doing about this
research is that I come across all these stories that
Cincinnati are so important as a part of our history, and.

Speaker 2 (01:21:32):
It's our story.

Speaker 8 (01:21:33):
It belongs to all of us, and yet we've forgotten it.
It's a source of inspiration, it's a source of pride.
It really makes me proud to live in Cincinnati to
find these stories there.

Speaker 2 (01:21:44):
You go, exactly right, we are as important as any
other big city in the United States. We have our
own history, and we've dedicated so much to the development
of our country from right here in Cincinnati. So you're
great about documenting all this. So I again to my listeners,
strongly encourage you. Now we pivot over to the brand
new book, Promised Land, How the Midwest Was Won. Now,

(01:22:06):
you and I were talking off Mike and I kind
of I was asking you directly, how you get your inspiration,
like the millions of topics you could come up with,
How is it that there's one or one area east side? Okay,
I'm going to sit down and write an entire book
on this area. This turns out to be what we
can call, at least you agree with my description of
it a prequel to the Man who Saved Cincinnati.

Speaker 8 (01:22:29):
Yes, it is, because I take it from the earliest,
the earliest settlers who came to Cincinnati and settled on
the north side, north bank of the Ohio River, which
was extremely hazardous. Kentucky was settled first, and that had
been somewhat tamed. It was still very dangerous, but the
north bank of the Ohio River was absolutely no man's land.

(01:22:51):
And the Revolutionary War veterans were given free land here
because the treasury was broke and they couldn't.

Speaker 3 (01:22:57):
Pay these guys.

Speaker 8 (01:22:58):
So the idea was, Okay, go out to Ohio and
help us open the northwest territory, and they did, and
they're just amazing stories about these people. But the way
I came to this was I have to go all
the way back to when I first moved here in
nineteen ninety two. And you may remember a city manager
named Jerry new Farmer. Oh sure, yeah, So Jerry, when
we went to lunch the first time I met him,

(01:23:20):
he gave me a book called The Frontiersman by Alan Eckert,
and that was all about Simon Kenton and his adventures
in Kentucky and Ohio against Little Turtle and Blue Jacket,
the Miami, and the Shawnee.

Speaker 3 (01:23:34):
And I just found that fascinating.

Speaker 8 (01:23:36):
So after I finished The Man from Who Saved Cincinnati,
I went back and started digging, and it just clicked.
It really felt good. So I took that period all
the way up to the Civil War. So Lou Wallace
makes another appearance Cincinnati, Yes, along with another great character
named Charles Whittlesey, who was an officer in lou Wallace's

(01:23:58):
command at Shiloh and then helped him build the defenses
that saved Cincinnati and also is probably the earliest and
foremost researcher and archaeologist of the mound culture around Cincinnati.
His work is in the Smithsonian. And this guy he
was from Cleveland, but he was stationed here in Cincinnati

(01:24:19):
and he's and there were mounds everywhere in those days.
A lot of them have been just activated excavated. Yeah,
but we had mounds in Anderson Township. We had in
Anderson especially interesting because they had a mound where two
guys went in they built such elaborate tunnels in the
nineteen twenties had they were lighted with electric lights and

(01:24:42):
they went in there and they claimed that they found
skeletons of people who were seven feet tall. Yeah, amazing stories. Okay,
So we had mounds in Terrace Park in Milford and
Indian Hill of course, all over the place. Even downtown
Cincinnati had a really spectacular mound where an artifact was
found that's known as the Cincinnati Tablet. And these mound

(01:25:06):
cultures go back three thousand years and the culture of
those people goes back as far as thirteen thousand years.

Speaker 2 (01:25:13):
Just think about it now, were multiple tries. I can't
remember my Native American history, but I remember going out
to see the mounds when I was in elementary school.
They'd a bus trip out there. Totally cool. But were
they Was it one particular tribe or was this multiple
tribes that that built the mounds of various different Native
American tribes?

Speaker 8 (01:25:33):
Well, we know that there were probably villages nearby because
it would take thousands of people over long periods of
time to build these mounds. They're just immense and they're
perfectly engineered. How do they do perfect circles that are
half mile across without transits or any of the modern
equipment that we use today. It's fascinating. It's a mystery.

(01:25:57):
You're going to have to read the book to find
out more. But I'll tell you what these people had.
Things like they had shells from the Pacific Ocean. They
find in these mounds. They found shark's teeth from the
Gulf of Mexico.

Speaker 4 (01:26:11):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:26:11):
So there was an elaborate, huge trading training culture. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:26:16):
And the Ohio River and all of this part of
Ohio right here, especially Cincinnati, is really significant.

Speaker 1 (01:26:22):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:26:23):
I got to own a back pedal to you. You
started out by talking about how the northern bank of
the Ohio River was not developed. Yes, said it was
hazardous and dangerous. The Kentucky side was what period of
time are we talking about when you're talking about early
settlers coming in and settling there as opposed to Native
American tribes already existing here.

Speaker 8 (01:26:42):
Right seventeen eighties, right in the early seventeen eighties to
the early seventeen nineties, is really were all this significant
history takes place, No kidding. The first families were people
like Ludlow stits Gano. These in their papers are all
still preserved at the Museum Center in their archives, and

(01:27:07):
so I went through a lot of that stuff, and
it was so much fun to find these stories. For example,
I found the story of an eleven year old boy
named Oliver Spencer who was taken by the Indians and
held captive for two years.

Speaker 3 (01:27:21):
He was tortured, he.

Speaker 8 (01:27:23):
Was beaten, he was The Indians were absolutely merciless. In
one four year period, they took fifteen hundred settlers and
they would be tortured for days at a time. They
might be scalped and killed, or they would be sold
to the British. The British would pay one hundred dollars

(01:27:43):
for a live hostage or fifty dollars for a scalp.
So what they were the British were still really cranked
about the Revolutionary war and enjoy losing. And what they
decided is that to keep us from expanding way to
the land that they coveted for Canada, they would use

(01:28:04):
the Indian tribes, the Miami and the Shawnee as their proxies.
And they just encouraged them and what they called in
those days depredations to terrorize these settlers.

Speaker 2 (01:28:17):
Now, did the prior to the British encouragement and egging
on to engage in this murderous behavior, did they have
a preconceived will to do that anyway because of how
the white men had treated them. Did they already know
in the back of their mind they didn't like these
guys they're invaders?

Speaker 8 (01:28:36):
Was that the perception an absolutely so the Shawnee. First
of all, you're absolutely right. The Shawnee and the Miami
this side of the Ohio.

Speaker 2 (01:28:43):
River was Theirs Okay, and that's why it was so
dangerous and unsettled.

Speaker 8 (01:28:47):
Exactly, And Kentucky was considered kind of a Switzerland or
neutral hunting ground for all the tribes around this area.
But the northern part of Ohio was Theirs. But also
the torture, the brutality, the scalping. All of this was
going on for hundreds, maybe thousands of years before the
white man got here.

Speaker 2 (01:29:07):
So this is what the tries woring among the tribes. Yeah,
people always overlook that they think Native American gets white people.
But no, we didn't. We didn't investigate right out.

Speaker 4 (01:29:17):
Oh this is.

Speaker 2 (01:29:19):
What was it? Since Cain slew Able, there's always been
problems of all people getting along together, and.

Speaker 8 (01:29:24):
Our civilization has certainly had its share of brutality too.

the talk station.

Speaker 2 (01:32:01):
Seven twenty one to fifty five Kercity Talk Station, a
true honor it is for me, Brian thomasposed to the
fifty five KOC Morning Show to be talking to face
to face in the studio. Peter Bronson, author of the
most recent book, Promised Land, How the Midwest, was one
which we're calling a prequel to his prior book, which
is absolutely awesome, like they all are. The man Stave
of Cincinnati were you were explaining this early history in

(01:32:26):
the Cincinnati area, describing the Miami and the Shawnee very
very very violent Native American Indian tribes killed a lot
of white settlers, the north side of the Ohio River,
Cincinnati very dangerous place to be. Kentucky, however, was a
state at this time. Yes, And this is what you

(01:32:47):
and I were talking about off air. And I'll be honest,
I have forgotten so much about my history and the
United States of America. It's embarrassing on some level. But
you know, these kind of books sort of bring that
back to mind the evolution of our country. So this
was the Northwest Territory generally exactly.

Speaker 8 (01:33:07):
Britain had Great Britain, even though they lost to US
in the Revolutionary War, they had decided that they were
going to claim all of the Midwest, and just west
of that was Spain, and then we also had France.
So the world's superpowers were all kind of carving up
the North American continent and deciding deciding who would get it.

(01:33:27):
The way Britain decided that they would get it would
be to just encourage these Indian tribes to be terrorists
and to make settling Ohio so dangerous and so bloody
and horrible that the Miami Valley was actually in those
days called the Miami Slaughterhouse.

Speaker 3 (01:33:43):
It was just that bad.

Speaker 8 (01:33:45):
I mean, people couldn't even leave their stockade. Places like
Covalt Station, Columbia Station, with stations were little stockades or forts,
and they were probably a footprint the size of your garage,
you know, a little bit bigger, maybe tiny houses, yeah,
well actually, and they would live in these little blockhouses

(01:34:06):
about as big as a garage. One of them was
James Kemper, who gave his name to Kemper Road who
founded Walnut Hills Academy, and he lived in one of
those block houses.

Speaker 3 (01:34:17):
Picture this with sixteen children.

Speaker 2 (01:34:19):
Oh my god, oh my okay. You know, logistically speaking,
you know, we have our own bedroom in our house there,
Peter Bronson. Logistically speaking, how do you build a family
of sixteen children when everyone's living in the same room.
A different way of living life? Back then, I must
serve all right, kids, everybody out of the house. Mom

(01:34:42):
and dad needs some quiet time out. I don't watch
out for the Indians. Yeah, no, but I mean you
really had to have its called intestinal fortitude. Who just
who accepts and adopts that by choice? Yes, that of life.
Oh these people, by the way, you're going to be
going in the most miserable, desolate, dangangerous place. Any Well,

(01:35:08):
it wasn't in the United States by that, but in
the territory. Well, well, I have fun, or you could
move over to Kentucky and where they have a relatively
stable life. Your choice. I just can't imagine people taking
that on.

Speaker 8 (01:35:18):
Well, you got to think of it from their point
of view, which is that they had been in a
culture in Europe where they weren't allowed to have land.
They weren't allowed to be anything but peasants under the
thumb of some other autocratic dictator or monarch, still.

Speaker 2 (01:35:31):
A hold over of the feudal era.

Speaker 5 (01:35:32):
So they came.

Speaker 3 (01:35:33):
Those families that came to Ohio.

Speaker 8 (01:35:35):
This really was the promised land because they described it
as unbelievably rich soil, beautiful, clean water, unbelievable forests to
build your houses and to build log cabins and stations.
And they would all come down on these little flatboats
that are slightly bigger than a big car, go like

(01:35:57):
huck Finn. Yeah, and they would have their all of
their life, livestock, all of their implements, all of their tools,
all of their family, eight or ten kids on one
of these boats. And a lot of those boats were
attacked by Indians before they even got here and people
were slaughtered. So but the land and the appeal of
that freeland, freedom, ownership, good soil, clean water.

Speaker 3 (01:36:21):
A future, it was so strong for those people that
they risked everything.

Speaker 2 (01:36:26):
That's amazing. So at parallel could be drawn. People were
drawn out west. Maybe because of the gold rush. Yeah,
there was a commodity. You could become very, very wealthy.
In this particular case of the mindset was you can
be a landowner. Yes, so you can grow stuff, you
can own your property.

Speaker 8 (01:36:45):
And they had such horrible experiences with the Indians they
sent the governor of The first governor of the Northwest
Territory with was General Arthur Saint Clair, who was a
revolutionary war veteran, and he was a close friend of
George Washington. He named Cincinnati Cincinnati. It was previously Low Santeville.

(01:37:06):
You've probably heard that, And he's the one who came
and said, I don't like that name. It's kind of awkward,
so I'm going to name it after a society that
George and I belonged to, the Cincinnatis absolutely. But then
he led an expedition to subdue the Indians, and they
were ambushed because he was a foolish general, and they

(01:37:27):
were ambushed near Fort Defiance, and he was absolutely massacred.
They called it the Battle of a thousand Slain, And
the stragglers who came back, their wives and their children
went with them, and they were all murdered. They were
all massacred there in the woods. And the few who
straggled back so much terrified Cincinnati that people almost abandoned

(01:37:51):
Fort Washington, which was the only foothold we had in
the Northwest Territory. If that had happened, Great Britain would
have taken all of the Midwes. This would all be Canada.

Speaker 2 (01:38:02):
That's amazing. More with Peter Bronson, he's in studio. We're
going to be talking about this for the entire I
could talk to it Peter for hours, So we're gonna
at least get a couple more segments with him before
we hear from Brian Ibel from the help Squad doing

Speaker 2 (01:41:06):
Wonderful, wonderful. I've talk in literature with him. I found
out we were both huge Dostoyevsky fans. He's my favorite writer.
So we just we could talk about this stuff all day.
But we're going to move back to Promised Land. How
the Midwest was won. His most recent book, again the
kind of prequel to his prior book, The Man Who
Saved Cincinnati early area history before the state was formed,

(01:41:28):
the wars with the Native American tribes who were very
murderous and slaughtered lots and lots of people, and they
were cursed as we find I found it earlier Egdon
by the British. Also, this was a period of time,
this development and before statehood history where everybody had firearms.

Speaker 9 (01:41:50):
Used.

Speaker 2 (01:41:50):
The British episode big time on providing the Native American
tribes with firearms to go do this slaughtering for them.

Speaker 3 (01:41:57):
Absolutely.

Speaker 8 (01:41:57):
In fact, there were laws in Cincinnati that you could
not attend church without bringing your firearm. Really yeah, because
it was so dangerous. So to go from one station
to another, you had to take armed guards. To even
send out your daughters to get water two hundred yards
from your blockhouse, you had to send your sons with weapons.

Speaker 2 (01:42:16):
They had scouts out on the field kind of monitoring
everybody's behavior. Oh my gosh, they were everywhere everywhere.

Speaker 3 (01:42:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:42:22):
So Abraham Covalt, who settled Covalt Station with his family,
was scalped and murdered right under the walls of the stockade.
I mean right within sight of his family. So I
mean this was constantly happening. I think probably the most
terrifying thing when I think about it, would be the torture.

(01:42:43):
Because the white settlers were very brutal. They took scalps,
but what they did not do is kidnap people and
torture them for two or three days for entertainment. And
that was pretty routine in the Indian tribes.

Speaker 3 (01:42:57):
It was part of their culture.

Speaker 8 (01:42:59):
They believe that they could they could take your strength
by doing that, and they could break you. And they
really enjoyed seeing people just broken down to nothingness, and
so they the types of torture are just defy the imagination.

Speaker 3 (01:43:15):
They were so creative.

Speaker 2 (01:43:16):
It's the stuff of I think of. You know, when
you read about German, the Nazis torturing people or murdering
people outright, or the Japanese torturing people, and it's hard
trying them on the bamboo fields and letting the bamboo
shoots grow up. Misery and where I mean, where that
comes from. And obviously apparently what I suppose white people

(01:43:40):
brought some of that on themselves to some degree, they did.

Speaker 1 (01:43:43):
They did.

Speaker 8 (01:43:43):
In fact, there were times when the militias were sent
out to punish white settlers who were breaking treaties and
were who were murdering Indians, and this just became You
can just imagine if you had found the remains of
your brother, your father, your son who had been tortured
that way, there would be nothing that would stop you
from trying to exact retribution.

Speaker 2 (01:44:06):
So it just just popping my head. Peter, Yeah, Yeah, Gaza.

Speaker 3 (01:44:12):
Loss Iran as using the terrorists as proxies.

Speaker 2 (01:44:16):
Well, and you know, the Russians didn't have a real
easy shot when they invaded Afghanistan. I heard about all
the torture that the Afghani people put the Russian soldiers
they caught through baking them alive. Back to the Roman Empire,
and the devious ways go back to the Middle Ages
and the torture chambers and the inquisition. Man mankind is

(01:44:36):
just filled with all kinds of nasty stuff. There is
some dark stuff really necessarily out of line with the
world's history at all, not at all.

Speaker 8 (01:44:45):
One of the things that I think it does instruct
us about, though, is there has been an attempt in
the past thirty or forty years to rehabilitate the reputation
of these tribes and make them sound less fierce and
more innocent, and more the noble savage of or So.
And really this is just nonsense. I think even they
would be offended by the notion that they weren't that

(01:45:07):
fierce and terrorized, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:45:10):
Right, because again they were duking it out amongst themselves
before we ever showed up. Exactly, we'll continue with Peter Ronson.

safety is one of the reasons chimneycare, fireplace and stove exists.
Have your chimney, your fireplace, your free standing stove, your

the professionals that the chimney care fireplace in stove. That way,
when you're using it, this winner, you know you are
going to be safe. I'm the perfect illustration of what
an inspection can lead you to keep in my house
from getting burned down. Builder special insert that I had
in the house, and the events have been you know,
covered up, And the bottom line is, if I use it,

(01:45:52):
the heat was building up so intensely that it could
have really created a fire situation. So that's what the
inspection revealed. So I quit use it, and then I
got in touch with the showroom four thirteen Wards Corner
Road checked out what they had by way of fireplace inserts,
and I selected a gorgeous fireplace insert. It matches the
architectural design of our home, our living room, beautiful, beautiful,

(01:46:15):
It's like first world stuff. I got a remote control
for my gas fireplace, which it's always been gas, turn
it on off, adjust the flames, just the lights, adjust
the blowerun And that's the neat thing about an insert,
because it gets as a blower that'll blow the heat
from the firebox into the room as opposed to letting
gravity just take it right up and outside the house,
and that up and outside the house. For woodburners, you've

(01:46:36):
got maybe a kreosoap built up problem that could lead
to a chimney fire. Maybe you had one already and
you didn't know about it, and you're lining is cracked.

This Saturday.

Speaker 8 (01:48:48):
Right coming up in December, December Saturdays, okay, and then
on December first, I'm doing I'm signing at the Little
Miami Brewing Company for the Beer Can Collectors of America.
It's kind of a festival for all these guys who
clicked all things related to beer.

Speaker 2 (01:49:05):
I remember beer KNT collections when I was a little kids.
We're all the rage back in the seventies. Yeah, yeah,
well it's still going. Well, that doesn't shock me. So,
Jillie Dowgpress dot com. Or to get this book of
Joe's put on the blog paget five Casy dot com.
A guy we have not You and I talked about
off air about this character, but I wanted to let
my listeners know something they're gonna find out about when

(01:49:26):
they read the promised land mad Anthony Wayne, Yes, what.

Speaker 3 (01:49:30):
A fantastic character.

Speaker 8 (01:49:31):
He's the kind of character when I'm doing research I go, wow,
I couldn't make this guy up if it was a novel.
He is so interesting. So he was a revolutionary war
hero again. He was at Valley Forge with Washington. He
got the term Mad Anthony because he was so tough.
He led a bayonet charge straight up a mountain side
and took Stony Point from the British under their cannons,

(01:49:53):
and he wouldn't even let his men load their guns
because he said he wanted to use bayonets because they're quieter. Oh,
they inspire so much terror. Well, when when after Arthur
Saint Clair was completely demolished and defeated and Cincinnati in
the Northwest Territory was in jeopardy from the British, George

(01:50:13):
Washington turned to his friend Matt Anthony and he said,
this is the guy I want to send him. Well,
that was shocking to Congress at the time, because Mad
Anthony was a total scoundrel, a rogue. When he was
when he was fighting a war, he was great, but
in peacetime he was a complete failure. He was cheating
on his wife he was in debt up to his ears.

(01:50:35):
He was kicked out of Congress for voter fraud. Yeah,
and he was in just a complete disgrace. And so
when George Washington tapped him for this job to go
save the Northwest territory of the Congress almost wouldn't approve it,
but he was sent and he formed the first paid, formal,

(01:50:56):
congressionally approved US Army. And some of the units that
served under Matt Anthony Wayne are still in the US
Army today and trace their origin all the way back
to that about that and he launched from Fort Washington
and Cincinnati and built the chain of forts, and he
won the independence and the freedom and safety of the
North with the whole Northwest Territory at the Battle of

(01:51:19):
Fallen Timbers when he defeated the Confederation of Tribes, and
it was such a sound defeat. There was a British
fort nearby called Fort Miami, and the Indians had thought
they could take refuge in that if they were defeated,
and when they got there, the British wouldn't open the gates.

(01:51:39):
So the British completely lost all of their support and
backing in the Indian tribes. But What's more, when Matt
Anthony got to the British fort, he rode out alone
on his horse and rode right under the walls of
the British fort with all these muskets trained on him,
and they didn't dare shoot him because he had his

(01:52:00):
whole army.

Speaker 1 (01:52:00):
In the woods.

Speaker 3 (01:52:01):
I mean, what a guy.

Speaker 2 (01:52:03):
You know, it's kind of funny guy. You mentioned him
being this absolute miserable person in his private life. Basically yeah,
and I'm thinking on the heels of Matt Gates throwing
it a towel, and it is Pete Hegzeth, the philandering
thing going on that might put him in trouble. Best
thing's pale by comparison this guy and this guy was

(01:52:24):
wildly successful now as a hero. I can't judge a
book by its cover, your heroes or where you get
him exactly more one more with Peter Bronson. We'll catch
yourselves a crime stop er, bad guy the week right
out of the gate, and then get back to Peter
talking Promised Land, how the West the Midwest was one?
With my guess Sinceudia Peter Bronson real quick word here
for Zimmer twenty four hour days, seven d a week.

(01:52:45):
Leaders for all your emergency HVAC needs. You were in
the best possible hands when you're working with the folks
at Zimmer. This is third generation folks keeping you safe, comfortable,
and keeping your systems running efficiently, which is it's really important.
That's why I recommend getting on one of the maintenance plans.
You can have Zimmer coming out there on a regular
basis annually perhaps and keep it system clean, keep it

(01:53:09):
running efficiently, and so you are ready to hit the
ground running, like for example, when the heat comes on
this year. May have been there already, but right now
they're still offering a twenty two hundred dollars rebate. It's
a cool carrier comfort rebate. So if your AC's gone
belly up, it's time to replace it. Call the professionals
at Zimmer. Of course, Carrier invented air conditioning. They make
one great air conditioning unit in Zimmer of course an

(01:53:30):
authorized dealer an installer of Carrier units. But they do
service more than that, which is why I always recommend
go to the website, check them out. I'll service anything
you've got. Obviously, the emergency service is available. Before you

drop of dime on him. You'll be eligible for a
cash reward and be doing society a favor and getting
this recidibous domestic violence abuser off the street. Thank you,

(01:56:16):
Lisa Baker for indulging me. Back to Peter Bronson, all Right,
you got mad Anthony Wayne, you got all the history
of of the the early days of the greater Cincinnati area.
You've talked all morning about the perils of someone biting
off the opportunity, and it was in their mind an

(01:56:37):
opportunity to live in this unbelievably treacherous world. Yes, and
I'm just amazed over that. The spine, the tenacity, the
the willpower.

Speaker 8 (01:56:50):
You know, we talked earlier about how inspiring and proud
these stories made, because this is one of those These
are the people Cincinnati was founded on. There's some tough people,
and we get to we follow these families up to
about eighteen thirty six. So in eighteen thirty six, the Alamo.
You remember the Alamo, right, everybody remembers the Alamo. Well, Texas,

(01:57:11):
there a lot of us don't remember what that was
all about. Texas was actually part of Mexico and they
were fighting for independence from Mexico. And Santa Anna, who
was Generalissimo el Presidente of Mexico, decided he would personally
lead thousands and thousands of Mexican troops up into Texas
and just just completely lay waste to these upstarts. And

(01:57:36):
he gets to the Alamo, of course we know that story.
He also massacred a bunch of prisoners at Goliad, which
was in those days they would say remember Goliad just
as often as remember the Alamo. And so Texas sent
a secret agent, one of their secret service guys. His
name was Francis Picky Yun Smith, great Texas name, and

(01:57:56):
he was sent to all over the Midwest, and he
came to Cincinnati and he appealed for help. And Cincinnati
was the only city that stood up and helped Texas. Really, yes,
And it was these same families who knew what it
was like to fight for their property and their freedom
in the Northwest Territory.

Speaker 3 (01:58:15):
So we had these families like.

Speaker 8 (01:58:16):
The Litols, like the Ludlows, like all these famous names
that we know now. Well, these families risked everything because
they violated the National Neutrality Act to help what would
be an insurgency in a foreign country, because Texas was
part of Mexico. Well, they risked. Some of them were congressmen,

(01:58:37):
there were newspaper publishers, and some of them even went
and fought for Texas and enlisted. So and one of
them was killed at Goliad. Well, what Cincinnati did was
it forged two cannons and they sent them down to Texas.
And while Sam Houston was running for his life, he

(01:58:59):
finally had the big set piece battle at Samuea Sinto
near Houston. And if not for those cannons, which Santa
Anna did not know that Houston had, Texas would have
lost its independence and today Texas would be part of Mexico.
It was Cincinnati that saved Texas. In eighteen thirty.

Speaker 2 (01:59:21):
Six, easilise the stuff you find out in your and
I asked you off air about writing as a process
and your eyes lit up. Yeah, it's so obvious how
much you enjoy this. And you did point out that
the best part about it is the research. Oh yeah,

with these tidbits and wild information like you just pointed out. Folks,

Speaker 9 (02:01:26):
I totally agree with you about the States rights issue
for regarding abortion fifty five krs, the talk station.

Speaker 2 (02:01:35):
ATO six at fifty five KRC the Talks Day and
by Thomas having one hell of a great time. I
just love Peter Bronson and talk abo with Peter Bronson
so much, and we're gonna make that happen again. He
and I are both big fans of literature generally, which
obviously isn't shock and considering as an author, but just
such a brilliant, intelligent, easy to talk with guy. He's

(02:01:57):
got a knowledge base a mile wide. So we'll get
Peter back on the show soon. And thank you to
the several listeners who sent me an email talking about
how much they enjoyed that discussion, because I don't think
anybody enjoyed it more than I did. And another man
who I have profound respect for, Brian Ibel. Brian is
in studio and I've had Brian in studio multiple times,
and I was glad to see him on the rundown.

(02:02:19):
It is that time of year and I kind of
wish we all sort of felt all year long that
it was the charitable time of year. But you know,
when the season kicks in Thanksgiving and Christmas and Hanikah
and we're all in a celebratory mood, we tend to
start thinking about those on life's margins who don't have
it so great.

Speaker 4 (02:02:36):
You know.

Speaker 2 (02:02:37):
Bob Wetter was on yesterday from the Wish Tree. The
wish trees are up all over town. There's going to
be a wish tree at Priceal Chili on the first
Wednesday of November where we're having the final listener to
lunch of the year for our Christmas Lunch, if you
want to call it that. But anywhere you can find
the opportunity to help someone out if you have it
within your financial means or even within your time commitment means,

(02:03:00):
see if you can try to do something for someone else.
And nobody knows about that more than Brian Iibold. And
after what twenty five years almost in the CINCINNT Police
Department and time to retire and trying to figure out
which direction he was going to take his life, well
he went in the charitable contribution direction. I've had him
on before to talk about his charitable organization, the Help Squad.

(02:03:21):
You can find him online at the Help Squad since
hewthwy dot com. And he was just talking off air,
he said, you know, I could have gotten in an
RV and drove all over then you know, spent my
time in a tiki bar drinking the hours away. But
there is nothing at all like what I am doing
with helping folks out. Brian, good to have you back
here in studio. Yeah, thanks for having me. Really appreciate it. Well,

(02:03:42):
you get to see the reality of what you're doing
for folks. So let's start with what you are doing
for folks, You and the volunteers and those who contribute
which I will strongly encourage my listeners to do to
your charitable organization. You have an interesting perspective on and
folks in need. So let's talk about the day to

(02:04:04):
day operations of the Help Squad and the type of
people that you provide assistance to throughout the year.

Speaker 13 (02:04:09):
Uh yeah, So the Help Squad is a Christian based
five oh one c three nonprofit organization. So just by
saying Christian based, that should get your support right off
the bat.

Speaker 2 (02:04:20):
But wait, there's more.

Speaker 13 (02:04:22):
The Help Squad also assists financially struggling families with a
focus on single moms and dads on the West side
of town.

Speaker 2 (02:04:31):
And it's nice that somebody is serving the west side
of toen you know, I just kind of felt we
got overlooked. I say, week because I grew up in
Dell High.

Speaker 13 (02:04:37):
But yeah, no, I'm from Price sal I did the
migration Price Hill to Dell High, Dell High to Bridgetown
and Bridge down, I guess to Harrison, then Harrison to Bright, Indiana.
That's usually how the migration goes for west Siders. But yeah,
me stop off on now, I passed that up. But uh,
you know that's where my heart is on the west side.
And but I'll tell you right now, we have a

(02:04:59):
vision of having the Help Squad, nor would the help
Squad Anderson Township the Help Squad Blue Ash. That's the
vision because there's more than people on the West Side
that need help, you know what I mean. And it
kills us because on our website you can request assistance
and a lot of the requests that we receive are
not in our service areas, you know, and it's unfortunate. However,

(02:05:21):
if some people would get off the couch and start
the help Squad in different areas of town, we can
win this.

Speaker 3 (02:05:29):
You know, I go wrong, tell we can do this.

Speaker 2 (02:05:32):
Oh absolutely, I had Keith Deserts from the cure starts
now on earlier in the week, they lost their daughter
to pediatric brain cancer. Eighteen years ago or nineteen years ago,
they started the Cure Starts Now to find a cure
for pediatric brain cancer fast forward. It is a global,
a global charity. Yeah, it's amazing. It is. It is
absolutely truly amazing, And I'm always inspired by people like

(02:05:55):
you and Keith and his wife Brooke and others who
just it takes someone with the initiative, with the idea
and the initiative to at least start it, because it
sounds tripe to say, if you build it, they will come.
You know, I'm not a self starter kind of guy.
I'm you know, I'd never been a I'm not an
entrepreneurial type. I've always been a W two employee. I

(02:06:17):
like to point that out all the time. But you know,
if there's someone over there doing this great work, I'm
more than happy to help out contribute. Some people have
time to help, and some people have money to help,
but there's always that one person who establishes the organization
and then next thing you know, you're surrounded by all
this support to help you get the work done that
you're trying to accomplish. It's great. Oh yeah, definitely. So

(02:06:41):
so I started the organization.

Speaker 13 (02:06:42):
However, we incorporated an amazing a woman, our vice president,
Sam Sam Jasper. She actually Brian was diagnosed with cancer
a couple months about six months ago. She went through
chemo radiation surgery, and she still helped others going through

(02:07:04):
all that. So you know the listeners that, oh, I
can't do anything, there's really no excuse. This lady worked
through something that none of us, most of us won't
go through, and she was still able to come through
and help people.

Speaker 2 (02:07:17):
So well, you know, maybe her work inspired her to
work and that helped her to get through the cancer
and the other problems associated with it.

Speaker 13 (02:07:24):
Yeah, very well, this lady's a unicorn. You won't find
too many people like Sam.

Speaker 2 (02:07:29):
You know, starting to help squad. You never running into
people like that. So it's okay, give my listeners a
couple of examples of how the organization works and spreading
the word on it and see if we can get
some contributions to go in. Give me a give me
one of your heartwarming stories of success and how the
charity actually goes about fulfilling its mission. Okay, let me

(02:07:50):
thank here.

Speaker 13 (02:07:50):
So our most recent lady we helped, single mother, was
in an abusive relationship, had to flee from up north.
I won't mention where she came to Cincinnati. I won't
mention where to as a refuge from this, you know,
this lunatic husband of hers.

Speaker 2 (02:08:10):
Getting out is the most challenging game for.

Speaker 13 (02:08:13):
Exactly and Cincinnati was the only place that she could
find housing. And so she basically fled here with and
showed up here with literally nothing, basically the clothes on
her back, no food, just a few diapers, basically no
furniture at all. There's really nothing this lady had her

(02:08:33):
had jam bag escape. Yeah, yeah, pretty much.

Speaker 1 (02:08:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (02:08:36):
So the Health Squad she contacted us, and luckily, because
of our donations and having the funds in the bank,
we were able to provide her with food, diapers, furniture,
a washer, a dryer. She's actually going to school online
to be a nurse. She's almost has a four year
degree and unfortunately, through the move her computer broke. It

(02:08:57):
was damage. We were able to get her a computer
to finish her degree. And so this is what I'm
trying to say. The Help Squad is a very unique organization.
You just can't call somewhere and get this type of assistance.
So that's why I'm always looking for the support, you know,
to help us. I mean, donations are down, volunteers are down.

Speaker 4 (02:09:19):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:09:19):
I've been on the radio several times.

Speaker 2 (02:09:21):
I've been on TV.

Speaker 13 (02:09:22):
I've been on cable news network, magazines, meetings, speak engagements.
I've talked to politicians, county commissioners, business owners, very influential people.
I have friends, they're multi millionaires and give nothing. So
I don't know what else it's going to take to
get our message across. You know, do I have to
like myself on Fire Fountain Square? You know, I mean

(02:09:43):
I have matches it.

Speaker 3 (02:09:45):
I will do.

Speaker 13 (02:09:46):
We will do whatever it takes to get this word
out because only takes one. It takes one person to
hear this. And we have reached tens of thousands of
people and have gathered just you know, a handful of support.
Now that handful of support, they're amazing me, businesses, people,
you name it. But there's a ton of other people
that could help and just choose not.

Speaker 2 (02:10:06):
To getting the word out. I mean, listen, no one
can doubt there are a multitude of charities out there,
but you really are unique in what you are doing.
This isn't like getting on a snap program. This isn't
like you know, getting on a government aid program. This
is really very very tailor focused needs that you are
addressing with. You know, quite often it's a cash contribution.

(02:10:29):
This is a situation where someone can't pay the rent
one month. Help Squad comes to the rescue, gets some
over that hurdle and helps them deal with those challenges. Well,
pause will bring Brian Ibold back again. Help Squad, the

Southbound seventy five continues to run an extra five minutes
through Wachland and now getting heavy through Northern Kentucky on
southbound seventy five due to an accident near Buttermilk that
bocks the left lane. Chuck Ingram on fifty five krs

(02:11:38):
The talk station eight seventy eight eighteen fifty five kr
CEV talk Station Brian Thomas with Brian Eyebowl in studio
the Help Squad. Since you with the wide dot coms
where you find Brian charity and of course it's a
charity for all folks that are struggling on the West Side,
helping folks out that are truly in dire situations. It's

(02:11:59):
real heart heartwarming but moving story. You just told about
the woman who had to just run, literally run away
from her abusive situation. And you know, I've I've heard
about that so many times over the years, and it's
easy for me to say just walk away. I read
stories about abusive relationships, and you wonder how in the
hell is it that you know two people could end up.

(02:12:21):
You know, making the stack is stupid in the morning
because they can't get along. Why don't you just walk away? Well,
that's easy to say. The challenge is actually following through
with it because you're fearing for your life. But once
they pull the trigger and get out of dodge, usually
with very little, that's where a group like the Help
Squad comes in and they need your help. You can

(02:12:42):
donate financially, but you're also looking for some help with volunteers.
To Brian, you might understand that correctly.

Speaker 13 (02:12:48):
Yeah, certainly, we will take we're looking for volunteers, we're
looking for donations. We're looking for item donations that we
can auction off. But I'll tell you what, Brian, there's
people that can't afford to help. I understand that there's
people that don't have the ability to get out to help.
But here's the thing. Everybody can pray for us. And

(02:13:10):
to be honest with you, if you had the chance
to give a donation or a prayer, I'll take the prayer.
God's in control, not me, not the donors, but God.
And if God wants to make this huge. It'll be huge,
and if not, we'll just keep going until He directs
us somewhere else.

Speaker 2 (02:13:27):
It's just that simple. Your faith is inspirational just in
and of itself. Hearing you say that it truly is
reflective of your commitment and that where it comes from,
you know, fulfilling the Christian mission. So I think people
quite often overlook that that it's our individual responsibility. I
believe doctrinally and dogmatically speaking. This is why I get

(02:13:48):
angry with church leaders who want to offload the responsibility
of helping your fellow human beings in this society by
offloading that to government services or pro pros. I mean,
charity begins at home and it's their obligation individually to
help out. And this is a way you can fulfill
that mission. Just hand over some cash or some time

(02:14:09):
or some effort or prayer for the help squad. Help
squadsincy dot com. You have a toy drive coming up,
am I right on that one.

Speaker 13 (02:14:17):
We do Thursday, December fifth at the west Side Staple
Bucketheads on Harrison Avenue.

Speaker 2 (02:14:23):
Yeah, you gotta love bucketheads in there.

Speaker 4 (02:14:25):
Done that?

Speaker 13 (02:14:25):
Oh yeah, it's from four to eight it's a toy drive.
We'll also accept donations, gift cards, items, you name it,
and our goal is to have the toy stacked to
the ceiling and one of the ways we're going to
do that is the Center for the Cincinnati Bengals. Ted
Carris is also going to make a guest appearance Science Autographs,

(02:14:46):
take some pictures and just help us out having some
fun there.

Speaker 2 (02:14:49):
Oh, that'd be a really nice thing to meet Ted
and help the charity out at the same time. And congratulations,
I see on your website again. The Help Squad SYNTHI
with the Why dot Com Corey and Chamber of Commas
Commerce awarded you the New Business Rising Star of the
Year for this year.

Speaker 3 (02:15:06):
They did.

Speaker 13 (02:15:06):
Yeah, that was a very nice award. We were glad
to get it. A lot of hard work and effort
was put in by myself, are saying the vice president
and everybody on our board. These ladies work continuously and
you know, I just wanted to add real quick that,
you know, and I think a lot of your listeners
can relate to this. You know, I grew up with
a single mom and this my mom struggled for the

(02:15:29):
longest time. We had our electric turn off at one point.
I remember eating cold TV dinners, you know, and this
has to resonate with some of your listeners.

Speaker 2 (02:15:36):
It just has to.

Speaker 13 (02:15:37):
But could you imagine, Brian, if my mom could have
picked up a phone and called an organization like us
to help her through these rough patches. Could you imagine that?
Wouldn't it have been awesome? But you know what, she
couldn't because there was no organization like ours. And that
was fifty years ago, that was in the seventies, and
there still wasn't. Well fifty years later, guess what there

(02:15:57):
is one. It's called the Help Squad, and we're going
to do everything that we can. This can be done.
You just need the support of everybody. Me and myself,
Sam and our five people on the board aren't gonna
be able to do it. We need everybody's help. Yeah,
and the idea is not a perpetual, ongoing handout. You're

(02:16:18):
helping people get through the bumpier times. Like the woman
that you got the computer for, She's going to be
a nurse at some point here soon, and she will
make a very nice living and she will always be
in a position of being employed.

Speaker 2 (02:16:31):
My wife was a nurse. You never had to worry
about where your paycheck was coming if you were a nurse,
because there's always a demand for nursing. She's going to
be free and on her own, but without your support,
she never probably would have been able to accomplish completing
the degree. So it's just again getting people over bumps
in the road. Financial assistance is offered. You have housing support,

(02:16:53):
you connect folks with shelter networks and shelter diversion programs,
housing grants, food support. We know where all the local
food aid can be helped that I've found, and the
pantries are you're sort of a one stop you know,
informational department as well.

Speaker 3 (02:17:08):
Oh yeah, definitely.

Speaker 13 (02:17:09):
And you know, I know there's a lot of government
agencies out there and whatnot, but try to navigate through them.
See if they call you back, See if they responded
your email, See if they put you on hold for
five hours. You know, the government does come in, but
they come in when you're at rock bottom. The help
squad french you from getting there. That's a big difference.

Speaker 2 (02:17:29):
Yeah, you're right, that's an excellent way of putting it,
a really excellent way of putting it.

Speaker 13 (02:17:33):
Yeah, we assist though basically the working poor who somehow
have a financial issue or financial crisis through sickness, maybe injury,
they got laid off, whatever it takes, or whatever happens.
You know, we will fix the gap in between so
they can continue making their ends meet.

Speaker 2 (02:17:55):
Now you mentioned items that you will accept by way
of donating. Is I don't want to draw a parallel here,
that's inappropriate, but I immediately, like Saint Vincento Paul pops
into my mind. But if someone has working operable like uh,
you know, we're we're phasing out the uh uh, the
old dryer in favor of a new one. If they
have something like that that you'll you'll you'll take it.

Speaker 3 (02:18:17):
Oh yeah, certainly, certainly.

Speaker 13 (02:18:19):
And I just want to add that Saint Vincents Paul
is an amazing organization as well, and we partner with them.
Uh So let's say somebody needs one thousand dollars for
a back rent a lot of times, uh, Sain Vince
Paul will pay half and then we'll pay the other half.
So yeah, they're they're a media and here's the thing.
But I'm not here, you know, to complain, and I
will tell you this, I am frustrated. It's been a

(02:18:39):
long year. Everything is down. You know, I don't know
what it takes to get people to rite.

Speaker 4 (02:18:45):
This is it.

Speaker 3 (02:18:46):
We're doing it.

Speaker 2 (02:18:46):
I see it every day.

Speaker 5 (02:18:47):
I'm not crazy.

Speaker 13 (02:18:49):
And to get people motivated to get off the couch
and let's go make a difference in this world.

Speaker 2 (02:18:53):
You're gonna live here once, right. You can't take the
money with you, you just can't.

Speaker 4 (02:18:58):
Yeah. So and it is.

Speaker 2 (02:19:02):
I always see charity because I almost feel guilty that
you feel good about helping someone in need out because
that person is in need, and it makes you feel terrible.
But that's what that's what generates the charitable contribution, and
you get to see the smile on the face and
the work that's actually done with that charitable contribution. It
gives you. It uplifts your spirit. You're fulfilling your Christian

(02:19:25):
mission and it makes you feel good. So as by giving,
go ahead, embrace the feeling you get from that and
enjoy that charitable spirit you get. That's part of the
gift of giving. The help Squad Sinsey with the y

your energy, your services. Reach out to them find out

I've mentioned it several times to my listeners, and I've
posted a couple of things on Facebook, and yeah, my
problems are my own and some are self created, and
I intentionally put my soul on a keto diet. This
is the very like is a couple of days into
my four week on it. I have not had any carbs,

(02:22:03):
I haven't had any sugar. And in comes Kimberly from
Saint Anthony a pat On there Night Church to let
me know that it's Mediterranean Food Festival weekend. And oh

back some of it, or I'll.

Speaker 3 (02:22:35):
Give it to Joe.

Speaker 2 (02:22:36):
Give it to Joe. But I'm going to enjoy a
little bit here and it is fabulous and just a
little tiny bit will keep me, like I guess, from
losing my absolute mind, because if I said no to it,
I'd be miserable.

Speaker 5 (02:22:51):
Well you know it freezes, Well, so if you want.

Speaker 6 (02:22:53):
Oh, yeah me today, freeze the other one and treat
yourself in two to four weeks.

Speaker 4 (02:22:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:23:00):
And since I haven't had any carbs at all, I'm
you're supposed to go add like thirty or something a
day or whatever, but I've tried to been really religious
about not having any. So I'm gonna maybe make up
for some of the carbs I was allowed but didn't
eat previously.

Speaker 5 (02:23:15):
I don't think it counts.

Speaker 2 (02:23:16):
I know, we know STA. Saint Anthony Patuwell Paris STA
Parish dot org is the website for the church. It's
got the information about Lebanese Food festival and that is
what's going on. Give my listeners all the deeds, kimberlay Well.

word and you can see the menu, the pricing everything there.
Of course Mediterranean food with you know, Lebanese spices, just
like the Greete spices.

Speaker 5 (02:23:50):
We don't tell you what's in it.

Speaker 2 (02:23:52):
I know what's in it. I make this stuff all
the time. This has one of my favorite culture foods
out of the Middle Eastern foods.

Speaker 4 (02:23:59):
Just love it.

Speaker 2 (02:24:00):
And so I was a little kid.

Oh so wonderful.

Speaker 5 (02:24:48):
We appreciate you though I know we had that was okay?

Speaker 1 (02:24:53):
Will you have it this Sunday?

Speaker 9 (02:24:56):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (02:24:57):
The butcher said, they don't think it's appropriate for nai.

Speaker 2 (02:25:02):
Okay, so we're not.

Speaker 5 (02:25:03):
We don't take any chances.

Speaker 2 (02:25:05):
I know you're doing that in everyone's best interest. Some
people have a little you know, they're off put by
the idea of eating raw meat. Uh, that is not
me Yeah, Lamb, it's lamb. It is so good. Spread
that on a little bit of that wonderful bread and.

Speaker 5 (02:25:21):
Olive oil onion on the side.

Speaker 4 (02:25:24):
Maybe some.

Speaker 6 (02:25:27):
Yes, roll it up that'ully tomorrow. So the next couple
of days are like jam pack cooking.

Speaker 4 (02:25:34):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (02:25:34):
There is no charge to enter. There's plenty of free parking.

Speaker 4 (02:25:39):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (02:25:39):
If you want to see the church, it is wheel
we have an elevator. It's wheelchair accessible. So Uh, the
Divine Liturgy or Holy Mass begins at ten thirty and
then the fest food festival will begin at noon almost
immediately following, and that will fulfill your Sunday privileged obligation

(02:26:01):
for any Latin Catholics.

Speaker 9 (02:26:03):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (02:26:04):
Or you don't mind a non Catholic experience a Catholic
Mass there, do you?

Speaker 4 (02:26:09):
Oh? No, not at all.

Speaker 2 (02:26:11):
I mean I was the only non Catholic in my
entire neighborhood growing up. I bet I spent more time
in Catholic Mass than I did at the Lutheran church
that my parents used to go to over in Roselan.
Because when all your when all your friends are Catholic,
you just can't.

Speaker 6 (02:26:28):
Unless you're Catholic, but you can experience the wonder, the awe,
the incense, speaking the language that Christ spoke, Aramaic and.

Speaker 2 (02:26:37):
Uh, it's just oh you do that mass, the Aramaic Mass.

Speaker 6 (02:26:41):
Aramaic and Syriac. We will make some English in on
Sunday mornings. Friday night is strictly uh Arabic, Syriac Aramaic.

Speaker 2 (02:26:50):
How about that, dear, that's the language of Christ. Yeah,
I mentioned you know to you previously. I grew up
next to uh uh uh well any neighborhood that had
Lebanese and Palestinian. But went to the funeral of the
neighbor who used to make all of this wonderful food

(02:27:11):
and front that's where I learned how to make peta
bread And that was in I believe, Aramega. It was
in a language I didn't understand, but it was all
chanted the whole yess. It was really it was. It
was I mean, it was sad because it was a funeral,
but it was really beautiful. I never never experienced anything
like that before.

Speaker 5 (02:27:32):
You experienced the true awe of God.

Speaker 2 (02:27:34):
Yeah, it was cool, it was very cool. It really
was so something else to people join at ten thirty,
eat afterwards at noon, and if.

Speaker 6 (02:27:43):
You're interested and you're worried about missing one of the games.
Getting to carry out line. They have it ready. You
don't have to, bless you, you don't have to wait
in you know, the longer buffet line.

Speaker 5 (02:27:56):
Just go to the carry out line. They'll pack it
all up.

Speaker 2 (02:27:58):
For you to go, and I can vox for that
quick in and out. They make it so easy for you.

Speaker 5 (02:28:03):
Well, everybody else doesn't. He have my phone number to
call me to prepow.

Speaker 4 (02:28:06):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (02:28:08):
And they don't have the rock star parking spot that
you say for you either, So I did get special treatment.
I'll acknowledge that, but it is one of the benefits
of being fifty ive, caresy morning show making friends likely well.

Speaker 6 (02:28:20):
And then we also have a variety booth with a
bunch of different items, both religious and indicative of the
Middle East, some clothing, et cetera. We have Lebanese coffee,
the real thick you know, Lebanese or Greek coffee make
espresso look pale.

Speaker 2 (02:28:39):
Yes, it is thick on the bottom.

Speaker 6 (02:28:42):
Oh yes, and our bread was We've got the nice
pit of bread by Ephraim's Old World Bakery. They helped
the church so much. Effrem and his wife were members
of the church when they were alive.

Speaker 2 (02:28:56):
I'm glad you put a good word in for them.
Yeah yeah, legacy carries on because you have a lot
of sponsors that help you out with this event. I'ms
looking at them right now.

Speaker 6 (02:29:04):
Well Deadlow Brewery is offering us beer and they have
a real cool they call it Lebanese beer with the spices.
They had it two years ago. They perfected it even
better for the summer and it's just I mean it.

Speaker 2 (02:29:22):
Oh no, I've got another beer. I have to try something.

Speaker 6 (02:29:25):
Oh yeah, it's really good. So they sponsor us there.
And our summer festival was delayed due to waterline breakage, so.

Speaker 5 (02:29:37):
We redid the whole kitchen. That's why it was delayed
two months.

Speaker 6 (02:29:41):
And we have a pizza oven and what we're doing
is we're making I believe it's manouche.

Speaker 5 (02:29:49):
We are using panini bread with either.

Speaker 6 (02:29:52):
Just the zat which is says time, yes, an olive oil,
and a meat pie and we're doing that all fresh
in our new pizza killing me over here with this,
Well you don't want that, well, maybe some yogurt with
the zauter, then skip the bread.

Speaker 2 (02:30:11):
This otter spice is so I mean unique as the
first word that comes in my mind. And if you've
never tasted it before, your first BiDi is like, oh wow,
just this is just really it's just amazing. It's kind
of the tartness to it, a bitterness to it, but
that zesty and salty flavor. We used to call them
lemonies pizzas.

Speaker 5 (02:30:31):
Right right, we can call it that. There you go,
it sounds good.

Speaker 2 (02:30:34):
Get a pig piece of pea bread and shmeer and
put a zotdter spice on a pop it in the oven.

Speaker 4 (02:30:38):
Get it.

Speaker 2 (02:30:39):
They used the thinner paper and bread for you. Definitely
definitely fewer carbs.

Speaker 5 (02:30:46):
I'm trying to help.

Speaker 2 (02:30:47):
It's like lying to yourself. You just can't do it.

Speaker 6 (02:30:50):
Well, know, we also have if anybody's familiar with tabully,
some may call it a parsley salad with that'll be
tomorrow with fresh parsley.

Speaker 2 (02:31:01):
Cucumbers. Sometimes meant bulgar wheat is typically in it, but
you'd have to leave the ball green onions.

Speaker 6 (02:31:07):
But for someone on a keto diet, you can make
it yourself at home and just leave out the bulgar wheat.

Speaker 2 (02:31:14):
And my wife is nodding right now at the at
the at the iHeartMedia app on her phone going We've
got a ton of parsley still in the garden that
didn't get frostbitten. She mentioned to Bully the other day.
So on the item list for dinner, we're going to
have fresh to Bully at home sands, bulgar wheat.

Speaker 5 (02:31:31):
Yeah, I mean, and basically it's healthy food.

Speaker 6 (02:31:35):
I mean very people in the Mediterranean typically would live
longer than Americans, and they did until like fast food
moved into their country.

Speaker 2 (02:31:44):
We have a way of ruining everything for dietarily speaking.
But yes, fresh fresh Fresh, you have a you're an
optimist for RFK Junior changing the dynamic.

Speaker 1 (02:31:55):
I am too.

Speaker 2 (02:31:56):
I you know, he's a quirky guy, but I think
there's a lot to proof he's going to be good
for the good for the job.

Speaker 5 (02:32:02):
It's going to be good for our bodies and our stomachs.

Speaker 2 (02:32:05):
So as will this festival. Sunday, starting at noon for
the food lasting until six pm. Get your carry out,
hang out, go to church at ten thirty at the

Speaker 6 (02:32:37):
That on the right hand side, take either side of
the church and all loopy around to the parking lot.

Speaker 5 (02:32:42):
So I just want it to be right.

Workout because I did a loop last time before I
figured that one out.
