Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:09):
Five o five at about k RC DECOK Station Friday
Eve Sation. I'm the dude man and I'm Brian Thomas.

(00:33):
I'm not the dude. Happy Friday Eve to you. Uh
good show coming up, Thank you Joe Strecker as always
executive producer and liner upper of guesters coming up of
Dan Hills f o uh let's former FOP President Dan
Hills with what is described with some choice words for

(00:54):
the Hamlin County commissioners regarding blaming cops for the handful
of alleged Nazis. There's still some rumors swirled around that
there is maybe they really weren't and paused for a
moment because some of the people were saying that these
completely covered individuals, some were people of color, And I

(01:20):
think we need to keep a definitional divide between the
definition of Nazi national socialism and clan members. Now, I
don't know that there are any black members of the clan,
notwithstanding Dave Chappelle's mockup of it on The Dave Chappelle

(01:44):
Show many years ago, which was really funny. But the
clan is is a white supremacist group. Nazism as a
governmental form is national socialism. Dictatorial control. Fascism I think
is a more appropriate definition. And they can call themselves

(02:05):
or they could call themselves whatever they want, but it's
a system of government. And of course Adolf Hitler could
have very well been a clan member, I mean, given
his you know, belief in this aryan race and this white,
blue eyed, blonde haired supreme being. You know, I say that,

(02:29):
you know what a blanken nut job, and then people
glombed onto that and supported it whatever. I guess, desperate
times call for desperate measures. And when you have a
collapsed in a government and a collapsed economy thanks to
the runaway inflation brought about by I believe, the weinmart
Or Republic, then people will, you know, desperately turn to

(02:49):
ridiculous ideas. But you could be a person of color,
I suppose, and believe in the governmental regime form that
was the Nazi Party, but tenants and that national socialism.

(03:15):
So I know it's a minor thing, but in the
grand scheme of things, they were supporting white supremacy, at
least according to the banner. So I'm just baffled by
this whole thing. And then it's got so much national
attention too, It's like thirteen people, thirteen bat bat crap
insane people gather on the sidewalk over a bridge and
unfurl their ridiculous banners and we all go absolutely crazy

(03:39):
over the whole thing. I think it would have been
much more prudent to just ignore them and not give
them press over it. But of course a lot of
press they got. I guess the community came out, and
of course the community can gather together and and and
and argue against that and talk about how they offended
they were. See the broader communities support sorts of message

(04:00):
that was contrary to the lunacy that those people were
supporting with their banners on the bridge. Right you show
you see the collective might of the population rise up
at least numerically against the numerically inferior and dramatically so
crazy people. That's because their ideology is crazy and isn't

(04:23):
catching on. Maybe they just came out to stir the
pot of descent. Probably, I don't know, but it didn't
result in some sort of increased support for their lunatic message.
It just increased support for a message contrary to the
craziness that they were supporting. But public official reaction to

(04:48):
that is really the problem here, and that's what Dan
Hills is going to talk about. Blaming the police for
the Nazis exercising their free exercise of religion. If that's
what it is, maybe they're political messaging, which is protected
by the First Amendment, trying to maybe spread the word
about their lunacy and see if they can get more supporters.

(05:08):
Yet good luck for that one. But I guess I
have to wonder how could the police be blamed for it?
Both the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office and I guess was
even though police said that there was no law broken,
and from a legal perspective, it does not appear that
there were any laws broken. Now, if any one of

(05:28):
those Nazis came after you with a baseball bat or
started pounding on your car, or committed an act of
violence against you, you know, coming at you aggressively is assault.
It is the feeling that you have when you are
afraid because someone is coming after you. Battery is the

(05:51):
actual physical contact, so you usually have assault followed by battery.
The assault is the person coming after you, which raises
the feel element, and then the battery is the you know,
using of the baseball bat by way of illustration. But
absent some criminal element there, what could the police do?

(06:13):
And if the police rounded them up standing on the
sidewalks saying their political things, rounded them up, put them
in a paddy wagon, and send them over to prison,
they would be sued for a violation of their civil rights.
You violated my First Amendment right to free assembly. You
violated my First Amendment right to free speech. You know,
the police don't agree with the messaging. I haven't heard

(06:36):
a single police officer say, yeah, I support what they
were doing. But if you move away from the message,
don't you generally support the right to free exercise, the
right to peaceable assembly, the right to free speech. With
that comes along with the idea that there are going
to be idiots out there in the world who will
exercise those rights and endeavor to spread a message that

(06:58):
we all hate, at least the vast majority of a
sane people hate at your First Amendment, at your Constitution.
It comes with good and bad. That's that Nazi case.
I mean it was, I think it was here in
Hamilton County. The Supreme Court ruled on it. And in
that particular case, I think they were actually advocating for

(07:18):
legitimate violence against people of color. Yeah, you hate to
have to deal with that. And this is one of
the beautiful yet ugly elements of living in a free society. Thankfully,
our government can't control what we say. That's the beauty

(07:42):
thing of the constitution. They aren't allowed to come in
and suppress our speech based upon whatever message we are
trying to spread. And in this idea where the free
exercise of speech and the exchange of concepts and ideas

(08:02):
works to allow us to filter through what's good and bad.
Wait a second, you're advocating that white people are superior
and that only white people belong in the United States. Well,
we can have a conversation about that, you know, and
sit down and walk through logically and reasonably all the
reasons that that is just a batcrap insane notion. Concept absolutely,

(08:28):
And you think about it, if the Native Americans were
organized then had an army and had a border that
they felt like protecting, because honestly, from my understanding of
Native Americans, they didn't have a concept of ownership of property,
so they didn't have this you know, European ideal of ownership.
And when the Europeans came over to settle to find

(08:52):
a new way to create a you know, to enjoy
the freedom that existed in a country that did not
have prohibition against say, I don't know, white people showing up.
They established themselves. And then, of course we all know
the history of America and you can decide whether it's

(09:14):
good or bad. But that's the reality of settling a country.
But where would this would this country have ever been
developed had the Native Americans said, look, those are white people,
we hate them, and we're going to kill them and
fight them. And that happened a lot too. I don't know,
it's just this, this whole thing is just insanity. But

(09:38):
going back to the specifics of Dan Hill's and his
criticisms of the Hamilton County commissioners blaming the police on
some level, that's where we get when we failed to,
you know, view this through the lens of our constitution.
Public officials who and I believe they actually had to
raise their hand and swear to uphold the laws of

(09:59):
this data, behind the constitution of the State of behind
the Constitution United States of America. That goes with that.
These crazy Nazis on the bridge goes with that, holding
up of hand, and the only thing they should have
done is say, listen, there were no crimes committed. I'm
talking about the public officials. There were no crimes committed.

(10:20):
And while we all hate Nazis, there's no criticism to
be levied against law enforcement. And we can't encourage law
enforcement to violate people's civil rights because we do not
like the message that is being expoused by these nutjobs.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
There.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
But for the grace of God, go I are you
going to be next? Is your political message? Is your
maybe belief system going to be questioned? You get a
group of your fellow travelers, and whatever specific political motivation
you've got, or whatever specific cause you're supporting, you gather
on a sidewalk with your banners. You want the police
to show up and arrest you? No, of course not. Well,

(11:04):
you know, I guess we have to deal with the
handful of alleged Nazis that are hanging out on the
bridge because they too enjoy those rights. You would end
up supporting the broader concept if you took a more
rational approach rather than just you know, basking in the
moment of public attention and outcries and rage and the

(11:26):
outcries and rage and people demanding that these folks be
arrested merely because we find their political message offensive. Those
people need a lesson in constitutional history and of the constitution. Generally,
you got to take the good with the bat in
this society we live in. Ron, hang on, we'll get
your call in just a moment. I am out of time.

(11:46):
It is five sixteen right now for your five k
City Talk station. Be right back.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
This is fifty five KRC an iHeartRadio station, get Eco station.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
I'm gonna take Ron's called just the second though. First
it was the Brandenburg case right for her from Ohio,
and I've talked about this many times with a judgment
of Politano across the years. Brandenburg, a clan member, made
a speech at a clan rally convicted under what was
then Ohio criminal Syndicalism law made illegal advocating of crime,
sabotaged violence, or unlawful methods of terrorism, means of accomplishing

(12:18):
industrial or political form reform, as well as assembling with
any society, group or assemblage of persons formed to teach
or advocate the doctrines of criminal syndicalism. So the question
before the Supreme Court did that law prohibit public speech
that advocates various illegal activities violate Brandenburg's right to free

(12:40):
speech protected by the First Amendment. Court held that Ohio's
law violated Brandenburg's right to free speech. They created a
two strong test to evaluate speech acts. One speech can
be prohibited if it is quote directed at inciting or
producing imminent lawless action sign advocate. And this is where

(13:01):
my interjection comes in. A sign saying white people are
the only people or whatever doesn't direct or produce imminent
lawless action. It's just a statement. And the second prong
of the test it is likely to incite or produce
such action. But this Criminal Cynicalism Act made it made
illegal and the advocacy and teaching of doctrines but ignored

(13:27):
whether or not that that teaching would actually incite imminent
lawless action. And the fair to make that distinction render
the law overly brought in then violated the Constitution, so
they struck it down. You can advocate for this stuff
as long as you aren't telling people right now to
take up arms and go start shooting people. I think

(13:48):
you can boil it down to ron. Thank you for
bearing with me there, and appreciate you holding over the break.
Welcome to the morning show.

Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yeah, it's been a couple of months. If I talked
to you and I wanted to go to the launchers
back in January, shoveled the snow out of my driveway
and two days later the city of came by with
their clouds and all the exits of the driveways in
another port for of snow. So yes, been another three hours.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
You know, well, you know it's warming up, springs coming.
We're going to be at March First Brewery on March fifth,
So if you can make that one, love to have you,
and I'd doubt there'd be a giant snowballowy down.

Speaker 4 (14:28):
And of course I always talk every year about the
Valentine's Day and I found a poem. I had a
teacher in high school and every holiday we had to write.

Speaker 5 (14:40):
A poem over it.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
So I had one for Valentine's Day. I'll say it
real quick. It was my hand. It says last night
I had a hand so dainty and so sweet. I
thought my heart was surely break so wild. Did it
be no other hand in all the world, in greater
insurance spring than that sweet hand die held last night
I was playing poker. It was four aces and a king.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
I was expected. I was expecting giving the ten of
the program was gonna end on some really sappy note.
But congratulations for getting yourself out of that one, because
your man card was going to be revoked. Is that
it ron appreciate the call five thirty seven fifty eight

(15:30):
hundred and eighty two to three talk pound five fifty
on eighteen ten. Phoney, you see the bars kind of low.
I do enjoy hearing from my listeners, though, although yes,
reminder that we'll be at March first Brewery on March fifth.
Keep that clear, uh, for my Catholic friends out there,
Can I just can you explain to me you got

(15:50):
Pope Francis telling us that we should invite all of
the illegal immigrants in the world in and that we
shouldn't throw them out. That's my boiled down rendition of
his letter that he sent to the White House accident
after the White House penalotic of US bishops decrying what
he describes as harsh immigration policies of President Donald Trump.

(16:15):
Nothing in the prior four years about letters to Catholic
bishops regarding their support of the Biden administrations will support
and advocacy for abortions, and I find it rather interesting.
Part of the letter is said, the act of deporting
people who in many cases have lived left their own
land for reasons of extreme poverty, which isn't an excuse

(16:37):
under our laws to get into the country insecurity, exploitation, prosecution,
or serious deterioration of the environment damages the dignity of
many men and women in entire families and places them
in a state of particular vulnerability and defenselessness. So it's
our responsibility to deal with their extreme poverty brought about
by their failed governments and their corruption the environment. Of

(17:01):
course he had to throw that in there, Tom Homan,
borders are quote. I got harsh words for Pope, for
the pope ought to fix the Catholic Church. So I'm
saying this is a lifelong Catholic. I was baptized Catholic,
I was at a first communion as a Catholic. Confirmation
is a Catholic. You ought to fix the Catholic Church
and concentrate on his work and leave the border enforcement
to us. He wants to attack us for securing our border.

(17:24):
He's got a wall around the Vatican, does he not,
So he's got a wall to protect his people and himself.
But we can't have a wall around the United States.
So I wish he'd stick to the Catholic Church and
fix and leave the border enforcement to us. Strong retort
to the Pope's condemnation of us and our efforts to
secure our country. You know, it is a serious crime

(17:46):
to break into the Vatican, to enter illegally the Vatican territory,
the Vatican City State. In a decree last month by
the Holy See, you can get monetary sanctions in prison
sentence for those who violate the strict security regulations of
Vatican City documents signed by Cardinal Fernando Varraguez Alizaga, President

(18:11):
of the Pontifical Commission for Vatican City State. They've got
one of those provides for monetary finds ranging from ten
thousand to twenty five thousand euros that's about ten thousand
to twenty five thousand dollars and prison sentences ranging from
one to four years. Finds apply especially to those who
enter by means of violence, threats, or deception bypassing border

(18:32):
controls or security systems. In addition to those who enter
who with expired permits do not meet the established requirements
receive administrative sanctions ranging from two thousand to five thousand dollars.
Penalties increase if the crime is committed with firearms, cross
of substances, by a person in disguise that's interesting, or
by several people together. Likewise, if illegal access into the

(18:56):
Vatican City is made in a vehicle, the penalty can
increase by up to two thirds hmm. No condemnation of
the prior administration's widespread support or Catholic elected officials Nancy
Pelosi support and strong endorsement for and encouragement of people

(19:19):
getting abortions in spite of the fact that is from
my understanding against Catholic doctrine and dogma by twenty seven
fifty five krsh the dethoxtation. Laura, hang on, if you
don't mind, I will take your call right out of the.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
Gate to be right back fifty five KRC.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
It is five point thirty. It is Thursday, and a
very happy one to you. Didn't get through the rest
of the lineup. Dan Hills got me off on a
tear because you know, the law is the law, and
the police were not at fault for letting Nazis accumulate
on a sidewalk. Donovan O'Neil on the Rains Act. He'll
join the program at seven thirty. Dennis Neil with the
book The Leadership Genius of Elon Musk. And finally, I
heart media aviation expert Jay Ratliffe, which is something I

(19:55):
always look forward to. I just love talking to Jay.
He's a great man. Without further I promised Laura she'd
be first. Laura, thanks for bearing with me and holding
over the break there. Welcome to the Morning Show.

Speaker 6 (20:05):
Hi.

Speaker 7 (20:06):
Yeah, I grew up Catholic and I never really agreed
with a lot of issues from there, and that's one
of them. And since that's ghylic in the city, can't
they send them there?

Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah? I mean see, that's a logical retort to someone
who says that we as Americans need to open up
our borders to take in literally every economic refugee in
the world. Vatican City, from what I understand, is a
pretty opulent and nice place and it's probably got room,
you know.

Speaker 7 (20:37):
I bet it's huge.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
Yeah, I've never been, and my wife went there with
her mom and really had a great time, you know,
And you know, Catholic they it's whatever, you know, But yeah,
I mean, it's good for the goose, good for the gander.

Speaker 7 (20:51):
Right, exactly exactly, And I think he I don't know,
I don't like that pope anyway.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
Well, you know, and I have a lot of cat
like friends, Laura. I grew up in an all Catholic neighborhood. Well,
with the exception of our family and a couple others,
the vast majority of all the people over on the
West Side that I hung out with, I grew up with.
They went to elder they went to Xavier, They attended
Catholic Church. I went to church with them quite often.
I went to Catholic church even though it wasn't Catholic,

(21:17):
and they everybody to a letter that I know that
I've interacted with have had a conversation with, feels the
same way about this particular pope.

Speaker 7 (21:27):
Exactly. Yeah, I went to.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Stan Oh, there you go. I understand that I went
out with and hung out with a lot of mercy
and setant girls when I was growing up. Wonderful people,
you know, I mean, listen.

Speaker 7 (21:44):
Exactly, and they don't care for this.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
Post exactly exactly. There you go, Laura, I appreciate the call, Oh,
you can pivot over before get the local stories. The
new Archbishop of Detroit that was appointed Tuesday by Pope
Francis on record as also criticizing border policies here in
the United States of America. Back in twenty eighteen, this
guy Weisenberger, Bishop Edward Weisenberger suggested at the US Conference

(22:12):
Catholic Bishops that maybe they should invoke that those who
advocate the attention of immigrants and separation of families of
the US border might receive canonical penalties usually used in
life issues cases, including excommunication for the salvation of these

(22:35):
people's souls. Maybe it's time for us to look at
canonical principle or penalties, he said. And I've never heard, well,
maybe I've heard a couple of bishops say, hey, we
need to excommunicate individuals who advocate and encourage abortion. So
he's at least interested in excommunicating you if you're not
in favor of open borders. That's the gist of what

(22:56):
I got from that one. Welcome to the new Detroit
are bishop. Let's see here. Mike Dwine added again wary
of cutting Ohio income taxes in the next budget, saying
the state only has so much money to pay for
ready schools and other key services. Dwaian apparently unveiling his
proposal for the budget last week, Lawmakers spent the next
few months hashing it out. Could include another reduction in

(23:19):
state income tax. And that's what we've talked about before
in this program, Senate President Rob McCauley. This is a
natural progression of the tax changes we've made over the
past decade plus. We will continue to eliminate brackets with
the hope of eventually getting down to a flat tax
if we can do it. This is a strong desire
to do it. We have two tax brackets. Those making

(23:39):
one hundred thousand or more and paid two point seventy
five percent. Those who make more a tax at three
and a half. Ohiolan's earning less than twenty six thousand
dollars basically don't pay state income taxes. Republicans in the
House and Senate onet to gradually reduce the tax at
two point seventy five percent across the board ergo that
flat tax, Dwayne said yesterday. Ohio made itself attracted to

(24:02):
businesses like Intel and Androll. Taxes aren't the problem, he claims.
In the governor's view, it's ensuring these companies have enough
skilled workers, which I don't know how that connects with
and it with the idea of lowering taxes to maybe
attract more businesses. It's an effective business model to lower

(24:23):
or eliminate taxes completely. Look at what happened with Texas
and Florida when well COVID hit and people started to
be able to work from home. They thought, you know what,
I don't want to live in a high tax date
like California and New York anymore. H Let me look
out over the world and see what is a better
climate for me economically speaking. Oh, hey there's Texas, Hey

(24:43):
there's Florida. Boom. They didn't look at Ohio because of
a variety of issues, including the high tax rate five
thirty five fifty five cares, the ethalk station stack is stupid,
coming up. I'll take phone calls though. I five went three, seven, four, nine,
fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight two to three talk.
Oh you can stick around.

Speaker 3 (25:00):

Speaker 1 (25:58):
The talk station by forty Friday Eve. If I care
see dot comedy can't listen live. What a great line
up yesterday, boy, I really enjoyed it. Judge Ennitopaulitana Steve
Gooden with an analysis of PG sitting fell and a
wonderful graphic Joe Strekker. He tried, he tried to get

(26:25):
artificial intelligence to get pg's sitting Feld's head merged onto
a dolphin, but came up with PG sitting Field writing
a dolphin, which was as close as he could comedy,
rather comical, comical image that one Congressman Thomas Massey always

(26:48):
enjoy having m on. I know the judges just absolutely
love him. In fact, the judge was I do a
zoom conference with the judge. Actually we see each other
when we're talking, and he was right there on the
zoom early listening to Congressman Thomas Massy, Jack Addid in
Big Picture with Jack Adaidan as well. So fifty five
cares dot com for that. When you can't listen live,
head on over the podcast page and get your right

(27:08):
heart media app while you're there too. Let us see here,
Let's go to the Stack of stupid and Jef thro
in there. He loves to do this to me because
we do have to worry about the FCC and there's
certain topics that can be controversial. Certain words that appear
in Stack of Stupid articles that I can't say out loud,

(27:30):
so I have to substitute them let's start with this one.
You know, I love you, Joe? When her ex there's
that word X sounds like there it is? You know

(27:50):
it's coming. When you're ex threaten to call police, Oh Joe?
When here ex threaten to call police? During an argument,
a woman pulled out and I have to substitute a
word here a marital aid think pure romance began striking
the man with it, according to Florida, Florida Police, who
arrested the alleged sex toy attacker for domestic battery. Cops

(28:14):
dispatched to the Fort Pierce residence in reference to a
disturbance in progress involving a fifty two year old man
and a woman named Jessica Negron. She's fifty. Victim told
police that Negron was briefly staying with him while she
gathered clothing before relocating from Puerto Rico to Connecticut to
start her life. Over his words, well Negron quote was

(28:39):
well behaved close quote to day earlier. The victim told
police she was drinking alcoholic beverages, resulting in her acting
disorderly and started arguments about who he follows on Instagram.
Remember the word X here. At one point, Negron allegedly
began to get in the victim's face, which he believed

(29:02):
was to antagonize him. When the man warned that he
would down nine one one, Negro pulled out the marital
aid and began to hit the victim with it. Just
walk away the particular sex toy. I love the smoking
gun and their way of describing things and props to
them for it. This particular toy not further described in

(29:24):
the arrest report, which does not indicate whether the police
confiscated it as evidence. That's why cops have rubber gloves.
When cops arrived at the man's home, he warned that
Negron was inside naked and would flash officers. The man
also explained the history of Negron's abusiveness prior to her

(29:44):
leaving for Puerto Rico, to the point where he needed
to leave his own home. Negron reportedly agitated and disorderly
and smelled of alcohol, and police sought the questioner. When
cop noted I was unable to get a clear story
from Negron, Niggar arrested the scene, subsequently booked into the
County gentle I missed mean a battery count. Freed from

(30:05):
custody on a one thousand dollars bond schedule to be
arraigned March twenty fourth, and of course the judge order
to have no contact with the victim. They were underscored
married in Connecticut in two thousand and three, no longer together,
but no word on whether they actually had a divorce
or not. Listen, dude, you're the one who invited her

(30:29):
into your home to stay, even if temporarily, So I'm
going to place some blame on well, maybe both of them.
And question did she bring that particular device with her
on her trip to his house to gather her things
before moving or was it his just food for thought?

(30:52):
Five forty fifty five K City talk station. And if
you got an imported car, traditionally important manufactur your car,
get it to foreign exchange. If it needs service, get
it into foreign exchange, you know, and even if it's
under warranty. If you have a car that is expensive
to get an oil change of the dealer mine it's
like four point fifty and I hate that dealer charges

(31:14):
you like four to fifty bucks for a blanket oil change,
you know, and even two hundred dollars which is the
price at foreign exchange. It's right around there. I'm rounding
at this point, but I'm talking about a genuine more
than two hundred dollars savings on an oil change. That's
the kind of savings you get in foreign Exchange. And
you're gonna love the guys at Foreign Exchange. They're really
just awesome people. Asc certified Master technicians will be taking

(31:38):
care of your car, and if it's out of warranty,
this is where you got to go because you're gonna
save heaploads of money overtaking it to the dealer. That's
what the point of Foreign Exchange existence is to give
you wonderful service and a full warranty on parts in
service without having to pay those dealer prices. Westchester I
seventy five Tylersville Exit, go east two streets and hang

(31:58):
it right. It's real easy to get to. That's the
Westchester location of Foreign Exchange. That's where you find Austin
and his amazing crew treat you like family. That is,

By fifty to fifty five car City talk station. Happy Friday, Eve,
I'm laughing. Joe and I exchanging thoughts in comments about
the SEC non compliant articles that he's put in the
stack is to but this morning, most notably this one,
I can read some of this, Joe. Do you think
the Internet is responsible for this? Or do you think

(33:40):
that this all existed before the Internet? And the Internet
allowed us to see into the hearts and minds of
the crazy people in the world. B And that's actually
my conclusion too. There are always a bunch of crazy
people out there, and we didn't know they were out
there in the world until the Internet showed up, and
the craziest stuff always filtered the top. Pivoting over to

(34:02):
my next almost SEC non compliant article, I'll do my
best to keep it within the boundaries. The most popular
kinks in each US state now revealed clips for sale.
Look it up for yourself. The world's largest kink and
fetish platform released its twenty I didn't know this existed either,

(34:27):
release its twenty twenty five fetish Map of the United
States yesterday. Its research is revealed that for the second
year in a row, giant Ness or Giant Tess is
the favorite kink of the majority of states, which you

(34:50):
get quite of finding, aligning with the United Kingdom, which
also searched for giantess more than any country. For those
about you're out there puzzling, and I puzzled before I
got to the definition of giantess, also known as macrophilia,
relates to people who are turned on by the idea

(35:11):
of a giant woman, perhaps one who stomps or crushes
a person coming in at number two close no flag
for us, Yes, I know. Coming in at number number
two described as closely four vo ri described as the
fantasy of being consumed by a giantess. Yeah, I know.

(35:41):
You're struggling with that too, aren't you. There's no flag
for us, Yeah, you could play at ninety times, Joe.
I can't describe out loud some of the kinky fetishes
that people apparently are searching for in different states. But
if you're interested in all, apparently Ohioans are interested in

(36:02):
pantyhose along with New Hampshire folks. New Hampshire, Gary, You're
a pantyhose state. So I mean, all right, I'm not
going to give that any further thought, just probably good
for me. We got to Zachary Louisiana with the mother

(36:23):
of a six year old Louisiana girl said her daughter
was forced to clean up her own feces after she
had an accident at school which caused her caused by
her dairy allergy. Jimmy sh Augustine said her daughter has
a dairy allergy. Despite that she drank milk for breakfast
at Robin's Place Elementary school and became sick almost immediately.

(36:45):
She remembers filling out forms and sending doctor's notes with
her enrollment paperwork about her daughter's dairy allergy at the
beginning of the year. Mom said after drinking milk, her
daughter used the bathroom multiple times, but eventually her teacher
stopped letting her go. She said she asked her to
should go to the restroom, but she said no because
she went too many times. The six year old end
up defecating on herself and then was forced to clean

(37:07):
up the mess. Mom said so upon being upon her
going to the office after having an accident, the principal
told her she was too big to be having accidents
on herself. Principal told Augustine that the child needed a
form of discipline for the accident. Mom said, I said,
what was the point of making her clean that up.
Y'all have any janitors, she said, they have janitors, but

(37:29):
she needed a form of discipline. I'm saying, how can
you punish her for having an accident which obviously brought
about by dairyology, which she shouldn't have had to happen anyway.
School superintendent for the Zachary Community School said she does
not condone the behavior of the teacher, and the principle
you learn from mistakes. The guy said, you take ownership,
accept them, and try to do what's right by the

(37:49):
child and the parent. In hindsight, they realized that was
not an appropriate step. We do not have safety precautions
that we have to abide by, or we do have
safety precautions we have to abye by. And again, a
child should never be put in that situation to have
to deal with that. Superintendents that adults have been retrained.
You also said students with food allergies are always adhered to.

(38:10):
At least policies regarding school allergies are always adhered to,
except in this particular case. Oh, that's a lot of feces.

for the neo Nazis or the Nazis or whatever the
hell that group was gathered on the bridge. Alisia Reice
among those who questioned why there were no tickets or
citations or arrests given the members of this hate group
and the display of firearms, which I guess you didn't realize.
Under the law in the state of Uhia, we are
an open carry state. It is lawful to carry a

(39:34):
firearm even if you're an idiot politically or ideologically, which
is why I advocate for folks on firearms, because in
case someone starts getting all shooty uppy on you from
some idiot with a weird political disposition, you're in a
position to defend yourself with a well deadly force, but
it's got to be appropriate under the circumstances. Eminent apprehension

(39:57):
of grievous bodily harm or death that did not happen
at the event, and the event was a lawful protest
in spite of the fact we all reject the message
that these idiots were espousing. So Dan Hill's on that

phones order in which they received Gus, thanks for calling
this morning in a very happy Thursday to you.

Speaker 10 (40:28):
Hey morning, Brien, how's it going. I really love your show.

Speaker 6 (40:33):
I was just calling.

Speaker 10 (40:34):
I'm Catholic at Cincinnati, and with the retirement of Archbishop
Dennis Schnurr, we're all keeping him in our prayers for
his speedy recovery. He's got cancer and he just slippd
and fell, and so you retired, and the Pope appointed
a new bishop, a Doug Dilliary, Bishop of Chicago and

(40:55):
now Archbishop Casey. I'm really excited to kind of see
what he what new ideas or new perspective he brings
to Cincinnati. The thing that I did was a little
concerned about was as I was kind of rating about,
you know, the replacement. I you know, see the Pope's
comments on, you know, being upset with the US's immigration policy,

(41:18):
and I'm just really really hoping that this Archbishop's able
to kind of explain to us maybe where the Pope's
coming from, because as Cincinnatians, we kind of mean Jade
Vance is kind of a representation of our beliefs, and
you know, we kind of would like to see, you know,
maybe maybe a building up of communications between US and

(41:39):
the Vatican, because I'm pretty sure the Vatican has walled
and the Vatican deports people.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Oh yeah, I just read it. It's criminal to enter
the Vatican illegally. You can get fined with the twenty
five thousand dollars and spent up to one to four
years in jail, depending upon the circumstances involving your invasion.
I'll be thirty nine foot walled Vatican City. And that's
one of the absurd things about the Pope criticizing the
United States for well trying to have an immigration policy
that prevents illegal immigrants from coming in. It's insanity.

Speaker 10 (42:08):
Yeah, And it's like, i mean, if you look at
the national debt, I'm sure the Vatican probably has a
lot more money than we do to spend on you know,
outreach and stuff like that. So you know, I'm really,
I really am looking forward to and I'm very optimistic
in hoping that, you know, this new archbishop is able
to help bridge that gap because you know, as a

(42:29):
faithful Catholic, I pray for the Holy Father and I
pray for our archbishop, and you know, I really just
want to see more unity out of this rather than division.
And you know, the diversity looks more than just you
know more, you know, less conservative sides of Catholics, because
you know, diversity also includes conservative Catholic of course, and

(42:52):
sometimes I feel like we can get neglected.

Speaker 1 (42:54):
Well in my only view as a non Catholic is
to just make an observation. You know, you have your
doctor and your dogma, your principles of the Catholic Church
and what you have and hold dear in terms of
a belief system, and according to the Pope, you're supposed
to as a Christian apparently not care about your borders
or apparently the economy or the crime that goes along

(43:15):
with it, or anything else social stability. But also I
understand the Catholic faith is against abortion. It is viewed
as a immortal sin, if I recall correctly, could be wrong.
I'm not a theologian, but that they don't strive to
enforce that that they pick and choose which elements of
the Catholic faith they want to enforce, or or in

(43:38):
the letter to Catholic Bishops, send out a message about
In this particular letter, the Pope says you need to
reject this notion of borders, and you need to stop
with your immigration policies. There are people that are starving
in the world, so you should let them in. Well,
welcome to reality. I mean seven billion people in the world,
were the most were the richest country in the world. True,
But if everybody in the world and a statistic documented

(44:01):
was able to fulfill their desire and make it here
into the United States, guess what would happen to the
United States. It would collapse. We're ill equipped to deal
with the multitudes that want to come here because we've
created the most wealthy and stable society on the planet.
But say nothing about one of the key tenants of

(44:23):
the Catholic faith. Abortion. Just leave that one go. We're
not going to say anything about it, and we're going
to reject it. E Listen, it's not my cognitive dissonance
to settle. I'm not struggling from it because I'm not Catholic.
I'm just an observer of the inconsistencies, most notably from
this particular pope, which all my Catholic friends that I

(44:45):
know don't like and think he's a liberal, left wing
nut job. If I can just be so bold as
to boil it down to that it looks like Jay's next. Jay,
Welcome to the fifty five KRC Morning Show. Thanks for
calling in this morning.

Speaker 6 (44:58):
Hey, thanks Brian.

Speaker 11 (44:59):
Hey, quick question, I too have Catholic friends, and none
of them like the Pope. And my question to them is, so,
why do you remain part of that organization? Because you
know he's the head of it, and so, my, my, my.
I guess what I would encourage people to think about is, uh,

(45:20):
there is a Holy Bible, and there is a Savior.

Speaker 6 (45:23):
You can go to him directly.

Speaker 11 (45:25):
And if you start to see that there is inconsistencies
in the in the organization that you're in, with the
rituals and whatever else, you can't step out and decide
that this isn't for me. But to remain to say no,
I'm devout Catholic but I don't like the Pope is like,
I don't know that. I think that's kind of tilting
the pinball machine. If you can't, can you be a

(45:46):
develop le Catholic and go against people?

Speaker 1 (45:49):
You know, I think there's a rule about that. But
you know, as you were saying that, I think of
the people who said, well, if so and so gets elected,
I'm leaving the country and going to can you know,
so he don't like you're going to leave the religion
completely because well, and I guess you could say he
was elected, but you, as an individual Catholic, didn't get

(46:11):
a say and who got to be pope? Did you?
That was done?

Speaker 12 (46:15):
They know you.

Speaker 11 (46:18):
And they're not interested in your opinion. So do you
want to say that you're Catholic but he's not my pope?
If you asked him that question and I look this up,
if you don't believe he's pope, he's going to tell
you that you're not Catholic. A second quick topic.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
I don't know. I just think them up and write
him down. Go ahead, da, I'm sorry, No.

Speaker 5 (46:38):
That's okay.

Speaker 11 (46:39):
Hey, do just starting to go after medicaid and years
ago you turned me on to this issue with the
Ohio being worst in the country fiftieth with improper payment
rate of forty six point six percent of our medicaid
spend is improper payment and we just can't seem to

(46:59):
fix it with a same super majority of Republicans up
the Columbus.

Speaker 6 (47:02):
It's hard.

Speaker 11 (47:03):
I've got Keith Faber involved, he said, it's hard. I
think you did a nice job on your program. Asking
him about it, he just kind of threw his hands
up and said, it's hard, and we're not really interested in.

Speaker 5 (47:13):
Doing things that are work.

Speaker 11 (47:16):
I'm wondering as the Doge gets into this, it starts
to dig into Medicaid. If there aren't some very powerful
rhinos up in Columbus that are going to be running
for cover as they start to unpack that and see
that Ohio is number one on the hit list when
they say what's wrong with Medicaid? And a rank US
by states and Ohio is last. I sure hope that

(47:37):
the white hot spotlight of the Doge comes down on Columbus, Ohio.
And don't forget that we have the JMOB, the Joint
Medicaid Oversight Committee, where we've got people sitting on a
board up there Columbus, both Democrats and Republicans get paid
extra because they're going to be the overwatch on Medicaid
and they.

Speaker 5 (47:56):
Haven't done a damn thing.

Speaker 11 (47:57):
Jennifer Gross, I hope you're listening. You sit on the board,
Why don't you show up and tell us what changes you.

Speaker 6 (48:04):
Guys are making?

Speaker 1 (48:05):
Good question, don't hold your breath waiting for dogs to
deal with Ohio's dysfunction. They got enough on their plate
with the trillions of dollars of dysfunction in the federal government.
Medicaid responsibility is left to the state, although we do
get federal dollars also state dollars. And the fact that
it's a failure or we're last on the list in
terms of fraud, waste and abuse or bottom of the

(48:25):
list is the fault of elected officials in the state
of Ohio. So you got fifty other states with their
own issues. And again, DOGE has too much on its
plate to deal with, just with federal government overspending, and
they haven't even scratched the surface of it yet. Jay
appreciate the call man curbage. Mike and Steve, you're going
to have to hold if you don't mind. I'm looking
forward to hearing from both of you. But it is

(48:47):
six fifteen and I want to strongly recommend just a
pair of outstanding human beings who also happen to be Dennis,
that you're going to want to see. Everybody needs a dentist,
and if you're afraid of Dennists, please don't be. It's
really important to your general health. To have good dentistry,
of course, get taken care of dental issues is just
a must. So you're in the best possible hands when

(49:08):
you go see doctor Fred Pack and doctor Meghan Freu
for a couple of reasons. One the most state of
the art clinic ever. They are always on and I
know doctor Fred Peck is in just a this is
his passion general dentistry and cosmetic dentistry. You can't find
a better cosmetic dentist. He's just awesome. A credited Fellow
in the state of credited fellow with the American Academy
Cosmetic Dnistry. There's only three accredited fellows in the state

(49:30):
of Ohio, and I think only fifty of them globally.
He's just transformative smile makers. If you look in the
mirror and you don't like your smile, you're afraid to smile,
you're embarrassed by your smile Doctor Fred Pack and doctor
Megan Freu. Megan free is working on her accreditation with
Cosmetic Dynastry American Academy. But you know what, if you're
one of the folks that don't like dentist doctor Megan Frew,

(49:51):
you know it's chair side manner, I think in dentistry
as opposed to bedside manner. She is the nicest, sweetest,
most wonderful and accomplished dentist. I've heard so many people
just praiser. Oh my god, I love her so much.
She's great. So you're in great hands with both of them.
You'll love the folks that work there. They are just
the nicest people around, so it's a welcoming environment. They

(50:13):
have sedation dentistry too. They have everything. When it comes

to the phone. He's got a couple of calls, been
kind enough to hold in that one in the order
which they receive. Thank you, cribbage, Mike, my submarine or friend.
Always good hearing from you one and Brian, I.

Speaker 2 (51:45):
Think I'll be able to tie your two top stories
together here right now, there's a famous Bible version, if
I may paraphrase, that the locals tried the trick Jesus
Christ while he was preaching do we follow God's law
or do we follow Roman law? And so many words,
he basically said, give to God what is God? Give
to Caesar? What is Caesar's Yeah, okay, my pope needs

(52:06):
to stay in his lane. Because the United States is
not against immigration. You come here illegally. Actually, if you
self deport, you can come back in a year. If
you don't, you can still come back in ten years,
So we are not against immigration. Now, couple that with
the free speech argument that I was still on active
duty when the Maplethorpe exhibit went on.

Speaker 1 (52:28):
Oh yeah, I remember that.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
As disgusting as that was, to take our most honored symbol,
the crucifix and dip it in a.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
Jar of urine, I don't know that that was a
different I use the word artist.

Speaker 6 (52:42):
That was a fountain square.

Speaker 2 (52:43):
That was you're correct, the guy that.

Speaker 1 (52:45):
Took the black and white all sort of pornographic images.
They were very homosexual centered images, but they were the
He was famous for the black and white images he took.
So yeah, a lot of them deemed obscene by some
and many, and that's why they ended up in court.
But the crucifix in the urine was a deaferent guy.
But you know, equally crazy stuff.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
Right, yeah, I thank you for your correction, sir, as
I said, I wasn't here. I should have researched it first.
But the First Amendment protects all speech, not just what
we agree with, and what those idiots did, just like
with the crucifix in the urine, you ignore them, they
go away. Now the police showed up from the facts
I've seen, and it took a while, the residents showed up,

(53:29):
and basically it was a non event, unlike other free
speech that was exercised four or five years ago during
the mostly peaceful probe tests, where people were killed billions
of dollars of property, and once again, those people were
not prosecuted either.

Speaker 1 (53:46):
Well, I like that contrast, and it was a stark
reaction difference, isn't it. When Antifa takes to the streets
and burns buildings and throws frozen water bottles of police,
and shoots very dangerous fireworks at police and shuts down
air is and roads. We don't recall I don't recall
many prosecutions being announced. I don't recall the sort of

(54:08):
the January sixth like reaction from the federal government trying
to track down each and every person who was responsible
for criminal conduct. But you can draw your own conclusions
from that. It's a matter of priority, just.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
Like our failed vice president and failed president actually set
up a bail website.

Speaker 1 (54:29):
Yeah, yeah, that is that is correct. Correct. So much
like the pope is picking and choosing which rules of
the contendants of the Catholic Faith he chooses to support
or promote, we have the picking and choosing of who's
going to get prosecuted for criminal behavior. Prosecutorial discretion. I
guess that's like pontifical discretion can have two different We

(54:51):
have parallels that could be drawn there. Mike, love you, brother,
Stay well, my friend. I'll see it. Listener Lunch at
March First Brewery. Steve, thanks for calling this morning. Welcome
to the Morning Show.

Speaker 14 (55:01):
Yes, there are three quick comments. The first one, we've
been to Vatican City. They have a partial wall. It's
kind of like our southern border when when you're waiting
to get in the Vatican Museum you're kind of straddling
the wall. It's really imposing. You can walk around, there's
big openings. So but it is and you don't have
to be Catholic or Christian any everybody in the world

(55:21):
should see that at one point. It's amazing. Second second comment,
my new favorite topic, doge when when this was talked
about initially first time I heard about it, of the
naysayers and I kind of thought, well, yeah, they got
a point. Is so much of our budget is entitlements,
they won't be able to cut much. And I kind

(55:42):
of bought into that. I naively did not think about
a lot of these entitlements are paid improperly. In other words,
it is being paid to people that should not be
getting the money. So you can reduce entitlements. And as
the one of your callers a few calls ago said,
talked about Medicaid, it's like, what forty something percent in

(56:05):
Ohio is improper So that you can really go through that.
Third comment, main, main reason, main reason I'm calling, And
I was on hold for a while. I thought perhaps
New Hampshire, Gary.

Speaker 1 (56:18):
Would be ahead of me.

Speaker 14 (56:20):
I have visions of him being entangled in a web
of pantyhose not being able to get to the telephone
to defend the honor of New Hampshire. But I do
I cannot comprehend that that last stack of stupid and
this giantess fetish or whatever. I don't even I can't.

(56:42):
I can't the way you've described this, when you said consuming,
I'm assuming like an I.

Speaker 1 (56:48):
Know, that's the only way I can.

Speaker 14 (56:50):
I can't believe there's one person on the face of
the earth that would get aroused over that. And you
said that's like the top fantasy or something.

Speaker 1 (56:58):
I mean, the research in some porn research company, but
you know they do. I mean, you have to sort
of assume they have the number of hits and people
out there and maybe New Hampshire Gary's on the Internet
searching for I don't know pantios right now, but I
guess you can record the number of hits and then
do the calculations based upon what fetishes people are most

(57:18):
interested in in Ohio and New Hampshire. Apparently it's pantiose.
Thank you for the call. Looking forward to the return
of former FOP president Dan Hills coming up next. We'll
get to that. After I mentioned Chimneycare fireplaces so wonderful.

Your morning cup of Sean please. This is a Sean
Hannity Morning Minute.

Speaker 15 (58:43):
You know, when you watch the media freak out over
all things Donald Trump, you would think that nothing great
is happening. But you know what, every day there is
something new, even little things I saw today that you know,
the president could claw back four point three billion dollars
and unspent federal funds for this ridiculous California High Speed
rail project, just as a frozen billion for the perpetually

(59:04):
delayed and derailed project during its first term as president.
The unspent federal funds conceivably could be subject to cancelation
by a hostile Trump administration.

Speaker 1 (59:14):
This is in the frozen b It's not hostile. It's
a boondoggle.

Speaker 15 (59:17):
It's a waste of taxpayer money, and it's time to
cut your losses. This thing was supposed to be done
a decade ago.

Speaker 16 (59:24):
For crying out loud, a conservative underground meets later today
on The Sean Hannity Show, All.

Speaker 15 (59:35):
Right, you said bye bye to big government and you
want limited government.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
You voted for that.

Speaker 15 (59:39):
Well, now it's time to trim the fat from big wireless.
If you are still using the big carriers Verizon AT
and T T Mobile.

Speaker 1 (59:47):
I asked, why are you doing that?

Speaker 15 (59:49):
Because my cell phoned company, pure Talk, a veteran owned company,
gives you the exact same service. They use the same
cell towers, you get the same five G network, you
get better customer service, and they're based here in the US,
and you pay half the price for the exact same thing.

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
That's right.

Speaker 15 (01:00:04):
There's simply no need to spend eighty five one hundred
bucks a month per person on your wireless bill, not
when you can get unlimited talk text, fifteen gigs a
data with mobile hotspot, but just thirty five dollars a month.

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
And by the way, the average family of.

Speaker 15 (01:00:17):
Four saves about one thousand dollars a year with pure Talk.
Make this switch is simply dial pound two fifty. You
say the keyword save now. Do it now you save
an additional fifty percent off your first month. That's pound
two fifty keywords save now. From our friends of Pure Talk,
America's wireless company.

Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
This dak Chene and I Weather polcast. We've got a
cloudy day to day, breezy and high have thirty two.
It's going to clear up overnight and be colder, load
low of seventeen uh sunny for the most part tomorrow
with the high thirty six. Rain showing up over Friday night,
dropping to thirty degrees. Rainy day on Saturday, and they
say a floodwatch kicks in at four pm and last
through Sunday afternoons. Forty five degrees for the high end

(01:00:56):
right now thirty three in time for traffic system missfire.
We'll hear from Chuck in the next segment, hopefully in
the meantime, I am pleased welcome back to the VID
five Catsey Morning Show. Former president of the Fraternal Order
Police Chapter sixty nine, that's the Cincinni Police Department. Welcome back,

(01:01:18):
Dan hills Man. It's great to hear from you today.

Speaker 6 (01:01:21):
Oh Brian, thank you so much for the warm welcome.
How's your health You're doing all.

Speaker 1 (01:01:25):
Right, doing great? Yeah, appreciate that. And thanks to everybody
who commented on my Facebook page the other day. Such
nice people. I was just telling people to get rid
of sugar in their diet because I've gone down that
road and I feel so much better, and folks just
really wishing me well with the cancer, and cancer sucks,
and everything's going fine. So I consider myself a blessed
man and I certainly appreciate asking about that. How is

(01:01:46):
post FOP president life in your post a police officer
position life going for you?

Speaker 6 (01:01:53):
Dan, I'm not too post on any of it because
frontline advisors or me and some attorneys and we represent
a number of law enforcement groups and so very busy.
And then you know, I pull my commission with a
small village that I leave out of my political life.
So I don't name it, but I work a lot

(01:02:16):
of what we call off duty details in the police world.
Matter of fact, I was working off thirty detail when
all this stuff happened, and even now I'm yeah, listening
to it all.

Speaker 1 (01:02:26):
But that's why you're here.

Speaker 6 (01:02:28):
I'm a busy guy.

Speaker 1 (01:02:29):
I'm glad to hear. And you're applying the skills that
you learned for all the years as a police officer,
and you continue that after serving your community. So is
this a spleen event We're ready for today? Dan Hills,
regarding the.

Speaker 6 (01:02:43):
Nazis, can you imagine. Well, yeah, I mean the Nazis
are like a no brainer. And you know the one
the one thing is they kind of all bring us
together because everybody hates the Nazis. Right, everybody laughs at
the Nazis. Everybody thinks the Nazis not things. They know,
the Nazis are ridiculous, exactly, a little a little something
that they they bring to Americas. They bring some unity

(01:03:05):
because right, left, Republican Democrat, it doesn't matter, I'll say,
what what and the hell is wrong with these people?

Speaker 2 (01:03:12):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:03:12):
How about that a positive spin that the Nazis benefits
society because they bring us together in our uniform disdain.

Speaker 5 (01:03:21):
Exactly.

Speaker 6 (01:03:22):
But you know, here is this. Now, try to step
into shoes of the even Ail police, the Ham County
sheriffs that were up there. I mean, what has seen
I've seen the pictures the Uh these these clowns will
just calm clowns instead of stuff that will would would
volly your seat. Uh. These clowns they had they had

(01:03:43):
long guns. And and so then there was the angry
group apparently from Lincoln Heights that was coming at them.
This was a handful, a handful and a half and
everything I've read from what even how Chief said, Uh,
it's just that everybody did a tremendous job. And look

(01:04:04):
what you know what they're trying to do, Brian, And
we had all sorts of people try to use open
carry and stuff to suck us in over the years
as people weren't as used to that, they were trying
to suck the police into making a mistake, and they didn't.
The cops didn't make a mistake. And so my sing
event at first, of course, is about the the ongoing

(01:04:27):
idocy of of of Nazis and and these these these
weird group of people that I don't know where they recruit,
where they get idiot like this from. But the other
spleen event is is uh is about our counting commissioners
who I don't think they know anything about police works.
They don't know anything about the wall because also they're

(01:04:49):
shooting off their mouths saying well, why did they take
any legal action? Why did they? I think?

Speaker 17 (01:04:53):
Uh?

Speaker 6 (01:04:54):
Alicia Reese said, why didn't they issue any tickets? Yeah, well,
there weren't any tickets to shoot. There weren't any laws broken.
And then Stephanie Dooms start talking about even they'll never
being very mayboy.

Speaker 1 (01:05:09):
Yeah quote as far as as far as even though
they've never been good neighbors to Lincoln Heights, this was
there one opportunity to come last night and speak and
say we respect you and we care about you. They
had a meeting about this. She goes, I also know
this is kind of like a veiled threat. Dan quote.
I also know we give lots of money to Evendale.
They need to be more responsible, not only the Lincoln

(01:05:29):
Heights but to us and let us know what's going on.
Now read into that what you might, but that sounded
like a veiled threat when it comes to funding and
maybe the distribution of county revenue.

Speaker 6 (01:05:42):
Well, Brian, you hear all that air coming out of
my balloon. Yet was so hopeful at the beginning of
this phone call talking about us all coming together. Well
hold on, you know, leave it to leave it to
Stephanie Doums to bring in to us and them, and
you know it's we we all you have disdain. I

(01:06:02):
don't care about your color or your you know, your religion,
your political party. Ye, we all have disdained for the
type of hate that is that is you know, yes,
but the police by the Nazis.

Speaker 1 (01:06:16):
But the fundamental point is the police have to abide
by the Constitution of the United States of America in
spite of the fact that we all disagree with the message.
Hold on, I'm out of time. I want to bring
you back and we can delve into this a little
bit further. So hang on more with the former FOP
president Dan Hills and a great word for twenty two
three on Route forty two between Mason and eleven, and
got a great opportunity for you this Friday. It's date

(01:06:36):
night every Friday at twenty two three, which is a
really cool date. I've said it before, I say it again.
I've done some date nights on the range and they
really successful date nights. You draw your conclusions. But anyway,
for Valentine's Day, Friday, a perfect day to you Valentine's
Day range thing with your your significant other. You can

(01:06:59):
get a reservation for this a twenty two three dot com.
It's only twenty one dollars for two people. That's the
lane fee for a full hour. So get some range
time in enjoy each other's company on Valentine's Day. Maybe
then go out to dinner together or go out to lunch,
but it's twenty two to three on Route forty two
between Mason and eleven and Date Night every Friday. But
this is just again a nice timing issue with Valentine's

(01:07:21):
Day being on Friday. A great firearms shop. If you're
looking for the great prices and a huge selection and
knowledgeable people. They have a gunsmith. You're in the right
hands there and the cleanest, safest indoor range you're ever
gonna shoot on twenty two to three dot com. That's
the number twenty two f I abow the word three
spelled out twenty two three dot.

Speaker 13 (01:07:38):
Com fifty five KRC. The talk station data.

Speaker 1 (01:07:46):
John I says we have a well a breezy day

That's between twenty eight and Ward's corner. They're on the
left hand side. I'm not seeing a huge delay out
of Milfordansum yet northbound four seventy one continues to look
good into town. Chuck Ingram on fifty five KRC the
talk station.

Speaker 1 (01:08:33):
Six forty fiftybou KRCD Talk Station and Happy Friday Eve
Frian Thomas with former FOP president Dan Hills on this
ridiculous event that occurred up an Evendale on the bridge
with the alleged neo Nazis. I know many people do
not believe they were actually Nazis. In fact, they may
have been anti five people dressed completely head to toe covered.

(01:08:53):
Just to well bring up issues like this and stir
the pot. But Dan Hills, standing on a sidewalk with
an offensive flag is protected behavior under the United States
and Ohio state constitutions, is it not?

Speaker 6 (01:09:09):
It is? And again, you know that's part of what
the freedom of speech is, is that freedom of speech
means that we sometimes have to see messages of stuff
we totally disagree with and don't like. I mean, if
you could get to be like, well, you see great
Britain going through now where any speech that is found

(01:09:30):
offensive in somebody's eyes can get you locked up and
you no longer have a freedom of speech. Brian, you know,
doing a little pro bono and my little media relations
for even d a police because I think so great,
you know, fondly of how they've got through all this.
They've done an excellent job. I see all the statements

(01:09:52):
from the chief. I think he's done an excellent job.
But there's more air coming out of my balloon because
there is a social media thing and we do represent
Ambleton County corrections officers and there's a rookie, brand new
officer just came, a corrections deputy just came out of
uh the academy, and somebody on social media had a
picture of him and a picture of one of those

(01:10:14):
Nazis and said that they you know, they did the
compare something and it's the one and the same person,
and this thing has gone viral, uh yesterday, maybe the
day before, and it's and it's all a lie. The
whole thing's a lie. It's already been debunked. As matter
of fact. He was he was at work when uh,
the the Nazis were up there doing their their silliness.

(01:10:36):
And this thing has gone all over the place. So
if you happen to see it, that's a little little
little message. Uh as we we might have to do
even more to represent this young man. But first thing
is putting out the message. If you see this silliness,
uh say say no, please don't share it. You know,
I'm not going to use his name. His name's already

(01:10:57):
being thrown out there too much. And and it's it
is you honestly.

Speaker 1 (01:11:05):
That may be actionable.

Speaker 6 (01:11:07):
I mean, oh no, well you know the front line
of attorneys are yeah, they're they're digging in on it
and seeing what they can do.

Speaker 1 (01:11:16):
They were, yeah, good, yeah, that that that.

Speaker 6 (01:11:19):
Type of that, that type of doc can be uh
you know, actionable and and imagine the danger it's putting
this this young guys just starting his career with the corrections, uh,
with the Sheriff's office, and he's got to be down there.
Of course, you know, in a in a population that
is diverse, the jail population is divers you're putting them

(01:11:41):
into incredible danger by by by shooting off your mouth
that you have nothing else to do, but you know,
sit around in your basement and make make stuff up.
So just just something for everybody out there. If you
see this thing being being tossed around, it's it's it's
all silliness and uh and and just flat out a lie. Yeah,

(01:12:02):
but I think you were going to ask him before
I want to find out. I think you were you
were going to ask another question maybe about what the
the commissioners are saying.

Speaker 1 (01:12:10):
Well, it's less about the commissioners because clearly they have
a profound ignorance of the law and the constitution based
upon the arguments that somebody should have been ticketed or
cited or arrested. Now pivoting over what might have been actionable.
For example, had these Nazis walked out into the street
and stopped traffic from moving, would that have been actionable

(01:12:34):
and result in a potential violation of Ohio law, certainly.

Speaker 6 (01:12:40):
Law or you know even the even they municipal code.
I think there there's borderlines of certain things. Uh, you know,
the we can carry openly just like we can carry
conceal and OHISA if you walk around with a holstered gun.
And this is one of the one of the things

(01:13:01):
that was somebody was always trying to bat us up
off of Coraine Avenue, Hawaiian Mohammed Terras. They'd walk around
with with the holstered gun. And we we the since
I Police Department knew that this person was just baiting us,
and so we we were always able to avoid confrontation.
But when you walk around with that long gun, and
if that long gun starts to point in different directions

(01:13:22):
and stuff, you know, you're you're you're you're knocking on
the door of inducing panic. It's not that they didn't
want to, you know, take any legal action. That's legal
action was necessary, but again you also are dealing with,
you know, a whole handful of things. As the Lincoln
Heights residence came out, I have heard some reports. I
didn't read it. I don't know any of it confirmed.

(01:13:44):
I didn't read it that came from a law force
and sources directly. But I think some of them were armed. Yeah,
I saw some guns on some of them, and so, uh,
you know, this is this is life and death and
and this is this is something you try your best
get your your your first thing do you want to
do even before you enforce the law is prevent loss

(01:14:08):
of life? Prevent does I ask, can you imagine if
that would have turned into some sort of shootout?

Speaker 17 (01:14:12):
Ors?

Speaker 1 (01:14:13):
Exactly yes, exactly.

Speaker 6 (01:14:15):
So again I go on and on about, uh, you know,
I'm just proud to be associated with all the police
across this country that do that type of work. But
right here locally that we got a fine little police
department like even now that did such a tremendous job.
And I take pleasure and you know, using my social

(01:14:35):
media and my my voice when I can on on
radio or wherever to say to say that they did
a great job. It should be commended, you know, so
might drop off some bonnuts or something there saying instead
of instead of instead of listening to this this insane
rhetoric from these commissioners, and it leaves me kind of

(01:14:58):
say it as I I set up the the comforts
of my Warren County home. It makes me feel kind
of sad about you know, the state of affairs and
ham County.

Speaker 1 (01:15:06):
Yeah, go ahead, rub it in. My wife, who after
the election said let's move out of Hamilton County, appreciate
that Dan Hills. Anyway, I appreciate your defense of the police.

Speaker 14 (01:15:15):
State.

Speaker 6 (01:15:15):
We're somewhere for Valentine's bay. Just take her somewhere for.

Speaker 1 (01:15:19):
Her to take her to twenty two three and get
out on the range. Anyway, Dan Hills, I appreciate your
thoughts and comments and your profound support for the police.
They did do a good job. They did uphold the law,
and they didn't violate civil rights by rounding up Nazis
and putting them away, because they are entitled to do
what they did. And we do have open carrying the
state of Ohio, and I'll be the first person to

(01:15:40):
say I don't like it. I'm not saying it should
be outlawed. I just am not a fan of my
fellow Second Amendment supporters walking around with open firearms because
so many people are nervous nelly's about even seeing a firearm,
and I don't want to stir that pot. Carry it concealed,
you know, defend yourself, exercise your Second Amendment rights, but

(01:16:01):
don't agitate the week in society. It's just the wrong
thing to do. Dan Hills, thank you, brother, keep up
the great work. We'll have you on again real soon.

Speaker 6 (01:16:08):
I'm sure, thank you, Thank you for your support of
police and continued good help. Sir.

Speaker 1 (01:16:14):
Anytime, brother, I'm happy to do it. Six forty seven

imaging is affordable and one of the things I haven't
emphasized a lot. You know, echo cardiograms. I don't know
what you're gonna spend it a hospital for an echo cardiogram.

thousand dollars, how about four hundred and ninety five that's

(01:16:38):
what it costs it. Affordable imaging services which includes, as
I love to emphasize, the board certified radiologist report, because
your doctor needs that, and the radiologist report comes to
any image you get at a hospital is gonna need
a radiologist report. Your doctors standing around, what does this
show me? The radiologist does that and explains it in
the radiologist report. That's gonna be an extra line item
on a hospital build in a lot of cases. So

(01:16:59):
you got two thousand dollar and then some extra up
charge for the radiologist report, which is a necessity, new
calendar year, new out of pocket liability. How about only

seventy five between twenty eight and Ward's corner. They're on
the left hand side. I'm seeing no delays on the right.

(01:18:33):
Chuck Ingram on fifty five krc the talk station.

Speaker 1 (01:18:38):
Six fifty three fifty five KRCD talk station. Yeah, his
name came up during the stack. Is stupid. I kind
of figured we'd be here from at some point, New Hampshire, Gary,
Thanks for calling in this morning. He took a break
from searching for a panty hose online.

Speaker 12 (01:18:52):
Oh my god, I got my panty hose in a lot.

Speaker 6 (01:18:56):
I think there was a shot across the battle. That's
what I think.

Speaker 1 (01:18:59):
It real quick for just doing Like, what the hell
is he talking about? Most popular kinks and fetishes in
every state revealed apparently here in Ohio and in New Hampshire.
Pantyhose Numero Uno, go ahead, Gary, that's all right.

Speaker 12 (01:19:12):
I grew up in the army, so we were always sat,
don't ask, don't tell, so you know, that was the
best thing for me. Hey, I just wanted to talk
about the hypocrisy of the Catholic Church while the Pope
is openly inviting everybody but not has tall walls and

(01:19:33):
strict enforcement around the Vatican. I was looking because of
thoge On X printing all the receipts that Catholic charities
is receiving. It was like, believe it or not, Louisville
sixty five million, Austin, Texas was thirty five million, Los

(01:19:53):
Angeles fifteen million. They're receiving all this money. They're making
money off the immigrants. Immigrants, yeah here, And you couldn't
get more hypocris hypocrisy if you ask for it. And
I just think it's downright a shame because I have
a lot of respect for some of the Catholic churches teachings,

(01:20:17):
how they've spread the word and how they run really
nice schools.

Speaker 6 (01:20:22):
Are used to it.

Speaker 12 (01:20:23):
I don't know what they're like now, but it really
shows the detigration in the church and why people are
leading well.

Speaker 1 (01:20:30):
And it also raises an interesting point on those who
scream separation of church and state. When let's say a
religious school applies for a grant from a state, like
for the playground. I know this was a litigated case
and the state said, no, we aren't going to allow
you to apply for a grant for your playground because
you're religious. Well, if a non government organization which is religious,

(01:20:51):
and for example, the Catholic Church says we're going to
help illegal immigrants and deal with the illegal immigration problem
and help them resettle and get housing and clothe them
and feed them and shelter them, maybe part of the
Catholic mission. But how is it that the state can
support that activity in further into the Catholic Church without
someone screaming and yelling about, hey, hey, hey, what's this separate?
Where's the separation of church and state? Go ahead and

(01:21:14):
ponder that legal ethical question, if you will. But yeah,
the funding has been cut off. It was a lot too,
I mean a whole lot. Thanks Gary, good to hear
from you. Go back to pantyhose searching five six fifty six. Joey.

good morning, Brian.

Speaker 18 (01:22:57):
Happy tongue and cheap our tongue and Cheap Thursday.

Speaker 1 (01:23:01):
Oddly enough, that wasn't on the list of fetishes in
the fetish article I read in the stackers to but
there is no tongue in cheek category. Yeah, I got you.

Speaker 18 (01:23:12):
I got two little points I'd like to bring in.
It has to do with if you're not part of
the solution, you're part of the problem. But it has
to do with the poachs comments the Catholic organizations are
number one and important illegal aliens to their mg os.
That's the first thing I'd like to mention. And the
second thing I got to correct you on this giant fetish.

Speaker 1 (01:23:34):
Hold on, hold on, Not everybody was listening in the
five o'clock hour Giant Tests g I A N T. E.
S s. Apparently a giantness fetish really relates to people
who are turned on by the idea of a giant woman,
perhaps one who stumps or crushes a person. I am
quoting the article from UH that was reporting on this

(01:23:56):
survey that was done on the fetishes. Go ahead, I know,
just knowing, stay will hire.

Speaker 18 (01:24:01):
You got eighty eight counties, and eight of the counties
are number one in this fatties. And it has to
do with the order of the toe. It's the big
toe because they're toe suckers in these eight counties.

Speaker 1 (01:24:14):
I was waiting for it. I didn't say toesuckers, Bobby,
because you mentioned that all the time. That is not
actually on the list.

Speaker 18 (01:24:22):
They got felt banners. That's the order of the toe
on it, and the picture on the thing is a
big toe.

Speaker 6 (01:24:29):
So there you go.

Speaker 1 (01:24:30):
So related to David, it is there actually is, Bobby.
Thank you for the levity this morning. I always enjoy
it when we kind of lighten things up in the
morning show, because you know, if you're surrounded by the
stack of articles that I'm surrounded by every day, it
can get really really depressing and something else that's quite

(01:24:51):
depressing to me. Thanks again, Bobby and listeners you can
feel free to chime into. I'm the wide open kind
of topics this morning. Is anybody else depressed, alarmed, angered,
or otherwise view this whole reality that we're facing these
days as de evolution and specifically get to the point, Thomas,

(01:25:16):
I'm talking about people in prominent positions, people who have
positions of authority, elected officials for example, or even talking
heads in media, that they feel the need to interject
curse words and foul language into their public commentary. Now,

(01:25:39):
I am no saint. I admit it all day long,
but not here in the Morning Show. There's a certain
rule of etiquette here, and I abide by it all.
Even if there wasn't an FCC, you wouldn't hear me
drop a F bombs and calling people foul language on
the Morning show. It's unnecessary. It's the lowest form. I mean,
I've said it before. As soon as your discussion involves

(01:26:01):
or devolves into name calling, you've lost the argument if
that's what you've got to default to. And speaking of
tongue in cheek, I always kind of joke and I say,
you know, if you got to make fun of Hillary
Clinton because of her cankles. Then you know you've got
more material that's better than that. So don't go that way.
As I go that way using it as an illustration,

(01:26:26):
but I got two recent examples of this, and this
one I just found not only is it demeaning and
disgusting coming from a Democrat representative, Oregon Representative Maxine Dexter.
She's out there in front of Capitol Hill along with
the American Federation of Government Employees, rallying to save the

(01:26:50):
civil Service, opposing Trump's push to reduce the size of
the federal government's workforce. Out there in the crowd, she said,
and I quote, well, I'll quote to the extent I'm
allowed to because of the SEC compliance rules, which prevent
me from even uttering what her quote is. I've been
told I have thirty seconds, so I'm going to tell

(01:27:12):
you that we have to I don't swear in public
very well, but we have to f word Trump, followed
by please don't tell my children that I just did that.
She's out in public in a large group. Media is there,

(01:27:34):
and of course everybody with a cell phone camera has
got it run and going with their video so they
can record this event in public and post it on
social media to talk about the massive outrage that's being
expressed against Doge in this Trump administration for trying to
save your and my taxpayer dollars from waste. We have
to f word Trump. And if you analyze the state,

(01:28:03):
this is coming from a woman, not that it matters
these days. I guess the guy could utter the same
thing like Anderson Cooper. How absurd does that sound? And
what kind of conclusion are we supposed to draw from that?
What does she mean by that? But what an embarrassment

(01:28:26):
to the constituents that she represents. This is the best
and brightest, And maybe she had a point to make
along the lines of, I don't know, some policy or
principle or some justification for you know, her defending all
of the federal employees who are hired. And I guess
you could probably make an argument for that one that

(01:28:47):
might be coherent, logical, and reasonable. Instead, in her limited
amount of time, recognizing she said she only had thirty seconds,
that's what she goes with. And she's not only want it,
I mean the foul maltherie that I made up phrase
there that comes from our elected officials. And I'm not
saying that the other side of the political ledger doesn't

(01:29:09):
do it, but it is unnecessary and it's embarrassing on
a global stage, and it invites others to do the
same thing. I guess, Oh, it's okay to see cuss words. Well,
it's good, all let's all get into it. And the
fact that you have a beep button. You know, I
really like Greg Guttfeld, but you know, quite often his

(01:29:32):
show has got a lot of curse words used in it,
and I don't approve that either. And then again, this
is coming from someone who you know, is known to
you know, use blue language in his day to day communications.
But I'll do it when I'm hanging out with the guys,
I'll do it when I'm in comfortable company. I'll do
it when you know you want to put a little

(01:29:54):
spice in it to emphasize a point. But if I'm
given a public stage and I have an opportun tunity
to try to sway the hearts and minds of humanity,
there's a large segment of society who doesn't appreciate and
believes like I do that that's the lowest form of communication.

(01:30:14):
And again going over to I mentioned Anderson Cooper there
and kind of joking manner, and he then had to
issue an apology. He actually was on CNN television. He's
got New Hampshire Governor Chris Sanunu on there, Anderson Cooper's
three to sixty talk show or I'm sorry, I tell
it talk show whatever. He's like this video of it

(01:30:38):
talking about Elon Musk planned this slash government spending. He
had the nerve to call the governor the D word.
That was his retort to the argument that Chris Sanu
was making. San Ina was making, don't be a D
word like durban. You know, is that trip really necessary?

(01:31:03):
Does that elevate him to like someone you might respect?
I don't know's I'm just making an observation about the
de evolution of well, not just the English language, of
society generally speaking. This has almost become the norm, and
we allow it, and we don't call more people out
of the carpet for it. It's like, oh, well, here
it happened again. Joe Strecker pointed out, you know, if

(01:31:26):
a Republican had said what Maxine Dexter, Democrat from Oregon
had said, you know, darn well, it would probably be
on the front page of most liberal newspapers or front
page of every news dump website on the planet. Do
you believe what Representatives so and so actually said about
the president? Fifty five K See the talk station coming

Speaker 1 (01:34:46):
Seven twenty one here if you both KRCIT talk station,
We're coming about to Rainzac coming up the next segment
with Donovan and Neil from Americans for Prosperity. The meantime,
over to the phones and we're going to start with Eric. Eric,
welcome to the show. It's good to have you on
this morning.

Speaker 19 (01:34:58):
Good morning.

Speaker 1 (01:34:59):
Now are you I am doing well. I understand you
have an interesting backstory on our conversation this morning about
the Nazis rallying and even day.

Speaker 19 (01:35:08):
Well, interesting is a good way to put that.

Speaker 1 (01:35:12):
Yeah. Yeah, Christopher Smitheman mentioned you are friends with Christopher,
is my understanding, and he brought you up. He didn't
mention your name, I don't think, at least specifically, but
mentioned you during his Spleen event on Monday here in
the Morning show.

Speaker 19 (01:35:24):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I missed that Monday. I was trying
to get a little bit of rest. But I listened
to that often and you as well.

Speaker 1 (01:35:31):
I appreciate that much. Eric, go ahead and go ahead
tell my listeners all about it.

Speaker 19 (01:35:35):
So you know, basically, I was coming from a client lunch.
My office is over there in TechView Office Center right
off of I seventy five, and I was coming from
a client lunch and I came.

Speaker 1 (01:35:50):
Over.

Speaker 19 (01:35:51):
I seventy five, and as I approached the overpass, of
course I see armed Nazis with masks and swastikas. And
as I approached, they had a bullhorn shouting the inward,

(01:36:13):
go home. And they proceeded to They came out into
the street from the sidewalk over to my driver's side window,
within a few inches of me while they're standing in

(01:36:35):
the middle of the road, and shouted the inward and
told me get out of America. And I pulled my firearm,
of course, and I probably practiced a little more restraint
than I should have. But of course you don't want.

Speaker 1 (01:36:55):
To hurt someone, you know, and you don't want to
induce them to perhaps you use deadly force, because they
then fear for their own life because you have a
firearm aimed at them. This is where we end up
into the very delicate situation that none of us want
to be involved with. You know, it's one thing to
have a firearm and you can pull it out and
perhaps lay it on your lap, just demonstrating that you

(01:37:15):
have it and you're willing to use it to defend
your life. But when you go to point it at someone,
then if they've got one, then they may very well
pull it out and then argue that they were justified
in using deadly force because they believed you were going
to use deadly force.

Speaker 19 (01:37:30):
That's exactly right, and that's why I did not. I
never pointed at at you, never even turned my head
toward them.

Speaker 1 (01:37:37):
Excellent.

Speaker 19 (01:37:38):
I think that's what made them upset, was because wouldn't they?

Speaker 2 (01:37:42):
Would they?

Speaker 19 (01:37:42):
When I didn't look at them and I blasted my music.
The police officer actually came up to my window and said, sir,
you need to turn your music down them And I said,
are they still yelling? And he said yeah, And I said, well,
you know, I'm not going to turn it down, right.
I could have said something else, have different words, but

(01:38:06):
I didn't. And then another officer came down, so we
turned my music down and I told him no because
the street was blocked. I couldn't run. There was a
red light, but I couldn't run it right, I couldn't
even go through. So, you know, I just want people
to know that this is not a situation where I'm

(01:38:26):
saying I want to violate somebody's right to free speech
or I want to go against I mean, I had
disagreed with what they think, of course, I realized in America,
you're allowed to think what you think, but you're not
allowed to come out onto the road in the middle
of the street with your gun shouting the N word

(01:38:48):
while the police watched.

Speaker 1 (01:38:49):
All right, and there you go. See Now that that
may support I think it was Alisha Reese's comment about
giving tickets out because arguably, and I'm sure some police
officer knows the the traffic laws better than I do.
Of course they do. But then if you go out
into the street and you interrupt traffic or block traffic,
that may be a ticketable offense. So maybe that was
a situation where they could have issued a citation for

(01:39:12):
the idiot Nazis.

Speaker 19 (01:39:14):
But brother, you are I mean, how do you There's
no cross walk, They're they're standing on a double yellow
line on a state overpass with the police behind them,
in the sheriff in front of them, and they're doing
this to me, man, And I'm thinking, at what point
are these guys gonna protect me? At what point I'm thinking, Okay,

(01:39:35):
I'm a sensible guy. I'm on my way to my office.
I'm thinking, Okay, this is gonna end. Really, they're gonna
They're gonna, they're they're gonna, and it was they took
too long, they took too long, and and I understand
that's a hard job. I support law enforcement, but you know,
I shouldn't have to endure someone uh no, one that

(01:39:55):
could have been my.

Speaker 1 (01:39:56):
Daughter, your daughter, I understand. I hear you out loud,
and I guess my point is, it has been widely reported.
You were there, so you actually saw it, and you're
filling in a lot of the details that many of
us don't even have. But it was been widely reported
that they were standing on the sidewalk and screaming their
Nazis screams and making idiots out of themselves, which is
all protected constitution protected speech and activities. But the minute

(01:40:19):
they get out into the road and start impeding traffic
and creating a hazard, then that may be a ticketable offense,
and perhaps the police should have done that, you know.
But thank you for filling in the blanks, Eric, And
you know what, I got to applaud you for your
amazing exercise of restraint.

Speaker 19 (01:40:37):
I don't want anyone to hurt me. I don't want
to hurt anyone. I just want to take care of
my family, live, my life, protect myself. I don't want that.

Speaker 1 (01:40:45):
Amen, Amen, I'm with you. Listen that one time that
guy tried to kill me on the express when came
to and I had my handgun out. I had it
at my side because I thought he was going to
just beat the living crowd out of me. But he
walked away. And I've always said that was the best
part of the day. Terrible day for me. I was

(01:41:06):
fearful of my life. I didn't have to shoot somebody.
That's the last thing you want to have to do.
Thank amen. I thanked God many times that I didn't
have to shoot that guy because if he was in
my face after all of that on the Expressway, trust me,
I was prepared to use deadly force. Good job, Eric,
Thank you again for calling man. It's wonderful to have

(01:41:29):
first hand account and real details. And again I applaud
your exercise and restraint. Wish we could talk about I

we're going to recommend. Donovan will tell us one way

(01:43:52):
happy to be here with you. So is this a
state act? I mean, we're talking about Ohio Rains Acts
because I know Congress so Massi's talked about the Rains
Act least I believe it was Massy on a federal level.

Speaker 2 (01:44:05):
Yeah, this is legislation that really, there's no hyperbole here.

Speaker 1 (01:44:09):
It's sweeping the nation.

Speaker 2 (01:44:10):
States across all fifty states are introducing variations of this.
It did originate and it's still active legislation in Congress.
We need to get it done, Yes, send it to
the President's desk. But you know, on the federal level,
we got to we got to clear out the economic
the regulatory sledge and our economic engine. But we've got

(01:44:30):
the same problems here in the states, and that's what
the Rains Act House Bill eleven would do here in Ohio.

Speaker 1 (01:44:36):
Okay, And let's acknowledge there has to be State Rains Act.
Independent from Hopefully we get the Federal Rains Act, because
there are state regulatory entities that wouldn't be impacted by
a Federal Rains Act. Correct.

Speaker 2 (01:44:49):
Correct, just a few years ago here in Ohio, just
to put in a perspective, because we're we're a red state, right,
we vote for Trump consistently, we've got to Republican senators
where republic con super majority in Columbus or not. Well,
I'll doing your show to talk about that at the time,
the believe it or not. Just a few short years ago,

(01:45:10):
the Mercadis Center put out a report on the regulatory burden,
the index and inventory all of the regulations in all
the states here and Ohio. Guess where we ranked, Brian,
Guess where we were ranked.

Speaker 1 (01:45:24):
I'm a little afraid to guess. Probably somewhere near the bottom.
Somewhere near the bottom.

Speaker 2 (01:45:30):
The only states worse than us were New York, California,
and Illinois. New York, California, Illinois, Ohio. We're among the worst.
So we You know, if you don't pay attention to
these things, this stuff can.

Speaker 1 (01:45:44):
Get real bad, real quick.

Speaker 2 (01:45:47):
Even when you've got you know, conservatives are so called
conservatives mining the Henhouse and Rain's Act. It puts a
puts a restrainer. It reins in those executive executive overreach
that can cause these kinds of things to happen and
get us pretty close to California and things we don't
want to be close to them.

Speaker 1 (01:46:05):
Then, No, not at all, And it just shocks my
mind that we are right behind those unbelievably left wing states.
Now to people right now, Donovan and Neil for Americans
for a prosperity scratching the head going, you're talking about
Rains Act. You haven't explained what it's going to do
for us, which we will dive into after these brief words.
So hang in there. Donovan will be right back to
give us some details on what the Rains Act will

five k r C the talk station.

Speaker 1 (01:48:14):
Seven thirty nine. Here fifty five KRCD talk Station Brian
time is see with Donald and Neil for Americans for
Prosperity on something that could be profound in terms of
the direction of government control over our lives and the
regulatory nightmare that is behind the scenes unelected officials creating
basically laws behind the scenes predicated on loosely written legislation

(01:48:37):
that gets passed and then they chuck the legislation over
to the regulatory agencies to start churning out regulations, many
of which have a profound financial impact on society. That's
where the Rains Act comes in. Donovan Neil regulations from
the executive in need of scrutiny. Long form version of
Rains Act. What does this do for us? Or what

(01:48:58):
will this do for us in this state of Ohio
were successful in getting it passed? Yeah, great question? And
what what this does?

Speaker 2 (01:49:06):
So there's a lot of different ways you can do
right reform. Right, you can cut the red tape. You
could say you can't add more red tape. But you know,
even when you say that, there's still the calls or
the outcry for some form of regulation. Right, the bureaucrats
are going to do what they do best, the bureaucrats.
And what the Rains Act does is at a very

(01:49:26):
simple level, what it does is two things. One, it
requires legislative approval, so no more long gone would be
the days of a of an executive agency overreaching its authority,
as Elon Musk and Donald Trump have called it. Right,
this this fourth unconstitutional arm of government that's erupted. The
legislature would have authority over approving any major rules that

(01:49:50):
would come out of an executive agency. But then, what
I think is most important in The greatest feature of
this after legislative authority would require the bureaucrats to put
together an economic impact. So if we're going to put
a drag on the economy that would come out of
a rule or regulation purportedly for a public safety purpose. Right,

(01:50:13):
that's why they claim to create these rules, is for
public safety. We're going to have to they're going to
have to indicate what the economic impact of those rules
would be.

Speaker 1 (01:50:24):
Oh, it's like an environmental or stands like an environmental assessment, right,
I mean, sometimes you have to environmental assessments before any
project goes through to make sure it's not gonna be
harmful to some fish or moth or bat or something.
In this particular case, they have to do an economic
analysis to find out how much money it's going to
cost the population for the regulations that are being rolled out.

Speaker 2 (01:50:45):
Instead of just worrying about the moths, the bats, and
the worms, we're gonna actually worry about humans and the
economic impact rules may have on the livelihoods of humans
living here in the United States.

Speaker 1 (01:50:56):
What a concept? What is okay? Now, there has to
be a okay. So let's use, for example, some like
the EPA regulating and according to the legislation that was
passed out of Congress regulating navigable waters, which then the
regulatory body then decides, is a tablespoon of water on
your private property that has a massive economic impact, and
of course that would have to be reviewed for its

(01:51:17):
economic impact, and then under a rainzac concept, if it's
over a certain amount, then the actual legislative branch Congress
would have to pass approval of that specific tablespoon of
water regulation.

Speaker 2 (01:51:32):
Correct, Because the idea is going back to the legislature
on these most egregious rules and saying was this your
intent when you sent us this authority exactly?

Speaker 1 (01:51:40):
And then it is they can approve it.

Speaker 2 (01:51:42):
And if they say, whoa, we did not foresee somebody
being this creative and finding ways to control people's lives.

Speaker 1 (01:51:49):
No, you cannot do that.

Speaker 2 (01:51:50):
That's what the legislature would be able to do.

Speaker 1 (01:51:52):
Now, all right, this legislative Economic analysis unit, this this
panel that will look into the economic impact and do
this economic analysis. What is the monetary cutoff? What what
allows that?

Speaker 6 (01:52:03):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:52:03):
Over x amount? Then you've got to get legislative approval.
What is the amount?

Speaker 2 (01:52:08):
Yeah, it varies by different state, you know, state to state.
You know, for instance, in Wisconsin, it's any rule over
ten million. Here in Ohio, the current proposal would say
anything over a million dollars in economic impact. Wow, it
has to be evaluated. And what you see by virtue
of that, you might say, well, that's a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:52:28):
It doesn't what does no, I mean then it's a
lower bar than the ten million dollars from some other state.
I mean, I say a million that that that's It's
easy to reach a million dollars for pretty much anything
these days.

Speaker 2 (01:52:39):
Donovan, Sure, well you want to What we want to
balance in this public policy is making sure that the
most egregious rules get reviewed and this doesn't become a
rubber stamp process. Right and here in Ohio we already
have what's called j CARDS, the Joint Committee on Agency
Rule Review. They they see a lot of these any
rule that gets implemented here in the state of Ohio

(01:53:01):
or desire to be implemented, JCAR reviews it.

Speaker 1 (01:53:03):
So there's already a stopgap.

Speaker 2 (01:53:05):
What Rains would do is add that economic factor and
force it to go to not just the smaller committee
of JCAR, which does a great job.

Speaker 1 (01:53:14):
But the full legislative body.

Speaker 2 (01:53:15):
You can imagine it's easy to maybe get a few
folks to agree to something, It's a lot harder to
get one hundred and thirty two individuals degree on something exactly.
That's a lot more eyes, that's a lot more people.
And as represented Ron Ferguson and Brian Lorenz pointed out
in the committee testimony early this week, j Car doesn't
represent all of Ohio. It's the members you know who
are on that committee. Those legislature at large represents all

(01:53:37):
of Ohio, and so folks in southwest Ohio may have
different thoughts about a particular rule than folks in northeast Ohio.
We want more input rather than last when it comes
to a million dollars of the economic drag being considered
here in the state.

Speaker 1 (01:53:49):
Donald and I hate to put you on the spot,
but I see that this act as it's written for
the state of Ohio, and I'm all in favor of this.
It empowers courts to review whether agency rules have been
authorized by the legislature and determining whether the rule has
been classified correctly as a major rule requiring legislative approval.
So some rule gets passed and it's over some certain

(01:54:11):
threshold of money, here a million dollars. And if they
don't act and they don't specifically approve it, the courts
can come in and say, hey, you've got to specifically
approve this or the rule does not apply. Who has
standing to bring that action in court?

Speaker 5 (01:54:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:54:27):
I think what you would these were crafted in different
ways in different states, right. I think the way we
would want to look at it would be somebody who
is going to be, you know, a party that's impacted, right,
a manufacturer, com citizen of the state of Ohio, to
be able to say, to be able to bring that
and all that is, I think as well, is really
just rebalancing what's broken right now where the bureaucrafts, this

(01:54:49):
fourth unelected bureauc branch of government has taken control and
taken taken things hostage. It should be the legislature creates.

Speaker 17 (01:54:59):
The laws, the executive executes them.

Speaker 2 (01:55:01):
And the judiciary reviews them for constitutionality. This would allow
the legislature to have a little red reign in the
executive and retain some of its original authority of saying, hey, no,
you're going too far, mister and missus governor, we need
to reign in here.

Speaker 1 (01:55:18):
They actually have to do their job is an interesting concept.
Donald O'Neil, I can only pray that this gets an
actor in the state of Ohio. What do we the
listeners and what can I do specifically to push this forward?

Speaker 2 (01:55:31):
Yeah, we need folks to go to Buckeye Blueprint dot com.
Buckeye Blueprint dot com. That's our website for Boulder Better
Buckeye State. We're posting action alerts there almost every week
now that the legislature's in session here in Ohio, and
go there. If you want to go to the newsroom
section you can read more about it, but ultimately reach
out to your state representative and encourage them to support

(01:55:51):
HB eleven, Ohio's.

Speaker 1 (01:55:53):
Rains Act HB eleven. Please Buckeye Blueprint dot com. I
will say my prayers in favor of this one. Donald
and Neil. Thank you for bringing it to my listeners
and my attention. I appreciate all the work that you
and Americans for prosper to do each and every day,
and I again will strongly encourage my listeners to get
in touch and get active, and I mean you make

(01:56:13):
it so easy for them to do that. Take care, Donovaniel.
We will talk again real soon I'm certain it's seven
forty seven right now. If you have KCD talk station,
another phone call you want to make cover SINCEY, let
me focus my attention on small business owners out there,
and I will use my friend Jeff as an illustration.
I know he's listening because he always sends me a
email response when he smiley faces on it. So here's

(01:56:33):
me talking about COVER. Since he and he's got a
group of employees, it's a smaller business. And he's like, okay,
he does the same thing everybody does already. You're in
charge of the business. You reach out some random and
medical insurance company and there you go. We just picked
this company, and here's your three choices. COVER SINCEY a
different approach. And what Jeff did by reaching out to cover,
since he was what cover? Since he does all the

(01:56:55):
time for individuals as well as small groups. He improved
Jeff's companies buy online by tens of thousand dollars and
at the same time got his employees better medical coverage.
And I hear from me so happy about it. He
ended up going back for dental coverage and vision coverage.
He's like, it works so well, everybody's really happy. Got
him out of a jam. His employees are better and

(01:57:15):
that helps with employee retention. If you can get better
medical insurance that your employees can actually afford, including dollar
one coverage, they're gonna want to stay at your business.
So do it. Be like Jeff, thank you Jeff for
taking my advice, and he's glad he did. And it
doesn't cost you anything. And this team stays with you
at cover since he to resolve any medical issues you

(01:57:35):
have in so far as like payment coverage problems. You
don't know if it's been a minute on the phone
with an insurance company, So reach out, ask the question.

Of Play Travis and Buck Sexton Today at noon on
fifty five KRC the talk station.

Speaker 1 (01:58:09):
Ato five, the fifty five kr CIT talk station. Happy
Friday Eve, Great time to be tuned into the fifty
five Karassee Morning Show, which I would argue it always is,
but I am pleased to welcome to the fifty five
Kartassey Morning Show. Someone the many of my listeners probably
already know, Dennis Neil. Award winning journalist, media strategist, advisor
to senior executives. A lot of my listeners may be
listened to his What's Bugging Me? Podcast. He was formerly

(01:58:30):
the anchor at CNBC and Fox Business Network. After serving
as man My Favorite Newspaper, senior editor at The Wall
Street Journal, as well as managing editor of Forbes, he
helped write The Wealth Management of Wall Street Insider on
the Dirty Secrets of Financial Advisors and How to Protect
Your Portfolio. Author of the book we're going to be
talking about today, the leadership Genius of Elon Musk. Welcome

(01:58:51):
to the Morning Show, Dennis Neil. It is a distinct
pleasure to have you on my program.

Speaker 17 (01:58:56):
Same here, Brian, and thanks so much for that very
loquation kind intro.

Speaker 1 (01:59:01):
You're well deserving of it. You do great work, and
you have been for a long time. And a little
jealousy on my part because I dearly love the Wall
Street Journal and I'm so glad it's one of the
few papers that's still in business and speaking about business,
Elon Musk, the wealthiest guy on the planet and immune
from the class warfare arguments. He's a minimalist. He doesn't

(01:59:23):
own all kinds of stuff and things. I mean, you
see these billionaires and there are five hundred million dollar
yachts floating around the world, and you're thinking like, wow,
uh okay, but that's not Elon Musk. He almost He
like thrives on minimalism and that's part of his business
strategy and what made him so successful. Am I right, Yeah,
you're totally right.

Speaker 5 (01:59:43):
That's a very good iye on your part.

Speaker 17 (01:59:45):
You know, my book offers eleven lessons of Elon that
fuel his success and that maybe we could use to
build a better life. And lesson number two is reduce, reduce, reduce,
And that's what he's doing a doge. That's what he
did at Twitter, cutting eighty percent of staff in about
two weeks. That's what he does in the Tesla car

(02:00:06):
where he tells engineers to take out so many parts
reducing it that it can't run.

Speaker 5 (02:00:11):
They got to put something back in.

Speaker 17 (02:00:13):
So the Tesla has about ten thousand parts in the
Ford has I think it's thirty or forty thousand parts
in a Ford, and.

Speaker 5 (02:00:19):
So that runs across.

Speaker 17 (02:00:20):
He sold all his homes, six homes, for like one
hundred and twenty million dollars, and he believes the mini
was Lifestyles. At the same time, once that guy moved
into mar Alago for a few weeks with Trump, I
imagine Trump was wondering, is he ever going to leave?
He does stay in the lap of luxury with friends.

Speaker 1 (02:00:36):
Well, with friends, they've invited him into their multimillion arm
dollar homes, not his. Yea, he lives in a house,
doesn't he does he owner?

Speaker 17 (02:00:45):
It's this forty thousand dollars foldable house that he rents
that SpaceX bought from this company that specializes in it.
And it's a you know, it's just a tiny little thing.
And when he's in town for SpaceX launches stuff, he'll
stay there.

Speaker 1 (02:01:01):
Well. And as you point out in the book, he
adheres to this eighty twenty rule. The perception is that
eighty percent of the work done by twenty percent of
the staff, which he proved when he acquired X. And
he in his motivation for acquiring it, I don't think
was to make himself any better or anything, but it
was in the name of freedom. Of speech, which he
holds dearly.

Speaker 17 (02:01:21):
But getting rid of that was the most amazing thing, Brian,
because this guy's an adopted American.

Speaker 6 (02:01:26):
Right.

Speaker 17 (02:01:27):
You know that a third of America Americans, they believe
that hate speech is so bad that it's more important
to prevent hate speech and stop it than it is
to have free speech. And another third of Americans not sure.
That's terrible. But Elon Musk because he is an adopted American,
he has the zeal of the convert right, and he

(02:01:47):
loves the First Amendment and lesson six in my book,
it's one lesson per chapter is free speech is everything
stand up and be heard. Not enough of us stood
up and pushed back when the nation was tilted toward
craziness for the last four years or even longer if
you want to trace back to Obama in the eight
years there and free speech, and he really believes in it,

(02:02:10):
and it's cost him dearly.

Speaker 5 (02:02:11):
You know, no other entrepreneur Brian.

Speaker 17 (02:02:13):
Puts billions of dollars of his own money into a
new venture. That's that's for other people to do that
you use other people's money. But he took I think
it was twenty five billion of the forty four billion
he paid for Twitter, came out of his own pocket,
and it was down sixty percent after a year, and
all the media said he's destroying it. And today don't
you think it's one of the most important media platforms

(02:02:34):
in the world.

Speaker 1 (02:02:34):
It is, And we just said a terrible illustration of
the of why you I mean, we need to protect
free speech. And all speech is protected in the United States,
including idiot Nazis on a bridge and Evendell here locally,
and you know, you got to defend the rights of
individuals to peaceably congregate as well as has spread their message.
But the great thing about that is when you have

(02:02:56):
free speech and people espouse craziness, you can column out
on it, and the left in their right their constant
narrative that they're right and all of these woke ideological
rules are right, and that's the only thing that can
be projected prevents alternative thought from being interjected into the exchange.
So logic and reason can rule today. So you got

(02:03:17):
to put up with stupid messages. But that's where you
find out where the stupid people are exactly.

Speaker 17 (02:03:24):
And instead of trying to limit and muzzle bad speech,
simply drown it out with more of your own, really really.

Speaker 1 (02:03:31):
Good speech, you know.

Speaker 17 (02:03:33):
I mean, it's just awful that are politicians on both
sides of the parties. You know, there's the Twitter files.
I was a journalist with more than thirty years.

Speaker 5 (02:03:42):
The biggest scandal I've ever seen in my life.

Speaker 17 (02:03:44):
Yeah, and the Twitter files. I wonder where the hell
is the media? Why aren't they more upset about this?
I did more columns on the Twitter files and the
scandal of government suppression of the First Amendment rights of
thousands and millions of people. I did more stories than
the New York Times and Washington Posts combined. And then
you see what they're doing with dough and you see

(02:04:04):
millions of dollars in payments to journalistic outfits. I think
they said in something like six thousand journalists getting some
kind of money from USAID. And you suddenly wonder where
you bought off? Is that why you said nothing?

Speaker 5 (02:04:17):
Didn't care.

Speaker 17 (02:04:18):
No, they didn't care because it was conservative speech. But
the Trump administration Brian They requested during their reign the
fifty five hundred accounts be silenced. So Republicans and Democrats
alike will stifle speech.

Speaker 1 (02:04:30):
If we let them. If they let them.

Speaker 17 (02:04:32):
Elon Musk has just blown a huge hole in that
effort to stifle speech.

Speaker 1 (02:04:36):
Dennis Near, the author the leadership genius of Elon Musk,
I think, if I could read the concept of this
book correctly, you wrote it not just for everybody, but
it seems that you wrote it for entrepreneurs, business people,
folks that are trying to improve the function of their
own business and bring about some greater success for themselves.

Speaker 17 (02:04:57):
Bingo, absolutely, because I really think even though he operates
at a huge scale, there are lessons you can learn.
You know, always bet on yourself and double down. He
kept doing that again and again and again. It's better
to launch and burn, yeah, than it is never to
launch at all. Fri one failure.

Speaker 6 (02:05:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (02:05:13):
So there's a lot of advice there for anybody trying
to build a better career or build a company.

Speaker 1 (02:05:18):
Well, and I'm glad you brought up it's better to
launch than burn and burn than never to launch at all,
because I was going to ask you about that, Elon Musk.
You know, the the rockets always didn't always fly, you know,
sometimes you send one up and it crashes and burns
to the ground. Now, some might take experience Shodenfreuda because
they don't like Elon Musk for some reason. But he
always seemed to take it and stride. He would chuckle

(02:05:38):
about it and use that as a learning opportunity exactly.

Speaker 17 (02:05:43):
You know, you have you know, I had that devastating
I was fired from Fox Business Network and fifteen minutes notice,
security guard escorted me out out of the office.

Speaker 5 (02:05:53):
You'll pick up we'll ship.

Speaker 6 (02:05:54):
Your stuff to you.

Speaker 5 (02:05:55):
I mean, it was devastating.

Speaker 17 (02:05:56):
It was as if I'd slept with the President's wife
or something at the network. And how do you even
recover from that? You know, it's kind of tough. And
I forgot where I was going with that, Brian, in
terms of the outcome that came out of that.

Speaker 5 (02:06:08):
Actually I forgot that point.

Speaker 1 (02:06:10):
Well go ahead, you didn't stop. You had a bump
in the road, you know, And I tell you, in
my life, the worst things that happened to me have
turned out to be the most beneficial things. You're like,
you know, I dated this girl in college and I
thought I was in love with her. It didn't work out,
and law and behold, I ended up meeting my Now
there will be thirty three years in June, wife in

(02:06:31):
law school, and I was like, man, I look back,
and I think, how miserable would I be as a
human being had that quote relationships quote unquote worked out.

Speaker 17 (02:06:41):
We have to learn that even in the most horrible
things that happened to us in our lives, good things
can come out of them.

Speaker 5 (02:06:48):
When I got escorted.

Speaker 17 (02:06:49):
Out of that building, I met a few days later
with a CEO and I told him the thing is,
I feel awful because I feel like I failed. And
he said to me, you haven't failed, you learned.

Speaker 6 (02:06:59):
And that's exactly.

Speaker 17 (02:07:00):
How Elon looks at every failure. You know, the space
that's took, you know, a couple dozen explosions covered heavily
in the press, laughing at him, making fun of them,
and every time they gained thousands of new insights and
made hundreds of changes to the next iteration. Just fix
it on a fly, keep going, keep going. And just
I love that about him. Yes, the guy could have

(02:07:22):
left after his first twenty five million dollar score, and
he just kept going.

Speaker 1 (02:07:26):
He kept going. And now that's the last best hope
for those stranded astronauts. Apparently we need to rely on
Elon Musk to get him back because apparently Boeing's not
capable of doing it. Now, I want you to dive
on into this because some people may not know this
about Elon Musk, but his philosophy of life drives a
lot of his decision making. And so let's talk about this.

(02:07:46):
All may be fake, so just go for it. Yes,
I love this part.

Speaker 17 (02:07:52):
And the publisher, the wonderful Harper Collins Broadside Books, kind
of warned me, you know, you may not want to
lead with that because it's so weird. But Elon truly
believes I think he truly believes this. That the odds
are billions to one in favor of the idea that
right now, even as we speak, we are living inside
one or more massive computer simulations operated by someone else,
somewhere else.

Speaker 5 (02:08:12):
Maybe in another time.

Speaker 1 (02:08:14):
And at the more I.

Speaker 2 (02:08:15):
Started to look into this, the more I came to
things that it's actually quite plausible.

Speaker 5 (02:08:22):
Yes, exactly like the matrix.

Speaker 17 (02:08:24):
I mean, if we look at how pong, and this
is the explanation Elon uses me. Look at pong, two
little paddles and a ball and a black.

Speaker 5 (02:08:30):
Screen against it.

Speaker 17 (02:08:31):
I played against and that was only fifty years ago.
And you look at where we are now where you're
down in the three d Mays, and it looks so
super realistic. The thought that ten thousand years from now
you could have a simulation so good you don't even
know it. That's entirely believable. But then you think that
the Earth is almost four billion years old. That means
you have something like four hundred thousand different sets of

(02:08:54):
ten thousand years. Well, really, in four hundred thousand different
chances of ten thousand and years, we've never made it
to that advanced thing. It's only in the next ten
thousand years that we'll get there.

Speaker 6 (02:09:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 17 (02:09:06):
Maybe it is a little simulated, But then what it
does for us is if you think it might be plausible, was.

Speaker 1 (02:09:12):
That you live louder, you love out loud, you.

Speaker 17 (02:09:16):
Take that job that you're too afraid to take because
there's too much risk there. You say that thing in
a meeting because you're feeling like everyone's going in the
wrong direction, because you no longer are going to stay clients,
because what the heck?

Speaker 5 (02:09:26):
It all may be a game anyway.

Speaker 1 (02:09:29):
Yeah, that's a real wild way of looking at it,
you know. And it's one of my favorite quotes, and
it's interesting because I just put it up the other
day because one of my friends had said, what's your
favorite quote, and I said, twenty years from now, you'll
be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than
by the ones you did. So throw off the bow line,
sail away from the safe harbor, catch the trade winds
in your sales, Explore, dream, discover from the famous Mark Twain.

(02:09:51):
And I've kind of tried to live by that philosophy
of my life and sounds to me like Elon Musks
as well, and I have before we part company, that
fascinating converse and just a fascinating man he is. And
I appreciate you writing this book as a you know,
sort of a guideline for folks in business, most notably
but going back to Starlink and how massive the growth is.
And I think that desire to build this independent satellite

(02:10:14):
network also springs from his embracing freedom and liberty. You know,
Verizon of the government might flip the switch and shut
your cell phone off, but there's Elon Musk with a backup,
sure enough.

Speaker 17 (02:10:26):
And you know, I think he sees a synergy among
these businesses that the rest of us don't see, you know,
the Startlink satellite network. Brian guides the Tesla cars right,
and then his EXAI engine ends up ingesting all of
the data from Tesla cars. It's able to ingest the
six thousand tweets put up every second on the X

(02:10:48):
platform and get smarter and smarter and smarter. He's got
the Olympus robot inside Tesla, where one day you might
be able to take an arm from the Olympus robot,
attach it to an antitea and with the brain chip
companies got neuralink. You know, the amputee could operate the
arm just by thinking about it. And you know, while
we think that, oh he wants to chip for quadruplegu

(02:11:11):
it's no.

Speaker 6 (02:11:11):
No.

Speaker 17 (02:11:11):
He thinks in twenty years, thirty years, millions of us
well walking around with these chips in our heads to
talk faster to AI. So it all fits together, and
it's just an incredible vision that really he has no
right to.

Speaker 5 (02:11:23):
Have it all. It's just absolutely crazy.

Speaker 17 (02:11:26):
And yet if you were playing a video game, you'd say, well,
what the heck?

Speaker 6 (02:11:29):
Why not?

Speaker 1 (02:11:30):
Yeah? All that frightens the hell out of me. Though,
I got to be honest with you, Dennis, I like
be sad if it were a game.

Speaker 17 (02:11:37):
You know, I feel like this is life, this is
real tomorrowill right here.

Speaker 1 (02:11:40):
You know, yeah, I couldn't agree more on that component,
but just the idea that all that data is being
gathered up. And I'm a privacy fan. I hate the
hoovering up of data. That's why I recommend my listeners
data hell away from Tiktokuse that just benefits the Chinese
Communist Party and they're hoovering up of data. But at
least knowing who Elon Musk is and this doesn't offer
me is much comfort. But he seems to be wanting

(02:12:03):
that data to advance and help us as opposed to
use against us, which is the antithesis of what TikTok is.
Huge difference.

Speaker 17 (02:12:12):
And now he's being demonized like crazy by the media,
by the Democrats, by Rhino Republicans, and suddenly keeps publican
ene mean number one, even more so than Trump, and
they're just trying to take him down.

Speaker 5 (02:12:24):
What are they so afraid of?

Speaker 17 (02:12:25):
Why don't we all step back and just take a
gander and watch what this guy does. I mean, you know,
if it is a simulation, you don't make a simulation
for boring outcomes right, Elon has another lesson Lesson eleven.

time by listeners to me this morning. Your book is
now available on my blog page fifty five cars dot

(02:13:06):
business person, get a copy, but everyone's welcome to read
it and learn by it. Thank you for putting it

appreciate your time. Have a glorious day and you the same.
It's a twenty here fifty five Carcity detalk station. I
heard media aviation expert Jay Ratliffe coming a first word
from my friends a QC kinetics, knee pain, hip pain,
joint pain. You've got it. Lots of people do. I

(02:13:28):
remember my dad could not wait to go under the
knife because of his hip. Get a hip replacement. But
if you're there and your doctor's talking with you about surgery,
how about using your own body's natural healing properties to
treat the root causes of your arthritic pain. That's exactly
what QC Kinetics is all about, the nation's leader in
regeneritive cellular treatments. They take your body's healing powers, concentrate them,
and put them where the pain is. This is an

(02:13:48):
in office procedure with zero downtime, and there are apparently
tens of thousands of very happy QC kinetics patients out
there to tell you it works. So how about real
lasting relief from pain. It's a free consultation to learn
if these regenitive therapies will work for you, or might
work for you anyway, Get in touch with them find out.

Eight here fifty five krc DE Talk station it's Thursday.
I always look forward to this time and this day
of the week for one reason and one reason only,
and it's a good one. Welcome back to the fifty
five KRC Morning Show. I heard media aviation expert Jay Ratliff,
good head back on my program.

Speaker 18 (02:15:33):
My friend, Hey pleasant, Pleasant, good morning, and uh, let.

Speaker 1 (02:15:37):
Us see I saw the late addition to the light
up this morning, Notice to Airmen.

Speaker 18 (02:15:43):
Yeah, well, you know it was I think it was
two thousand November twenty twenty one. The FAA spent a
tremendous amount of time and money hosting a virtual inclusive
language summit. They were trying to you know, adopt gender
gender neutral terms within the aviation world. And the thought

(02:16:04):
was Notice to airman was a bit uh, you know, masculine.
We might offend people, so we're going to change that
to notice to air missions, which made no sense at all.
Cockpit has got to be flight deck, airman got to
be aviator. If they talked about the UAVs or the
unmanned aerial systems need to be uncrewde aerial system I mean,

(02:16:26):
it went on and on and on, and you can't
say man made. It's got to be machine made. Or
fabricat at whatever. They spent millions of dollars throughout this.
Now that Donald Trump's in office, that stuff's going away.
We're going back to the terms we use for like
seventy some years, which was which was perfectly fine. So,
I mean, I'm sure that there are things that we

(02:16:48):
need to adjust over time, but this type of stuff
was just so far over over the edge. It just
made no sense. And a lot of the pilots within
the industry, male and female, said, why are we spending
tens of millions of dollars on this program when we
desperately need to upgrade the systems we've got. Please spend
the money where it's needed. And certainly I think that

(02:17:10):
that was the most rational approach from the men and
women that are directly involved in all of this, them saying, look,
spend money upgrading the systems that need to be upgraded.
And when I see Musk and Trump together teaming up,
I can only imagine what Elon Musk thought of when
he started looking over the FAA systems of the day

(02:17:33):
and recognizing so much of it was last century. Given
how you know, technically savvy he is, and it's obvious
it's not going to work that way. So we'll see
just how fast some of this stuff can start to
turn around.

Speaker 1 (02:17:47):
Did the Buid administration seek to revise the word amen.

Speaker 18 (02:17:54):
I'm sure it's in there somewhere, because you know that
could be offensive to well. I could go on a
religious rant with some of my left friends.

Speaker 1 (02:18:03):
I just I can't go there. I get even more emails.

Speaker 18 (02:18:07):
I about one hundred and sixty unread already this morning.
I don't want to add to that. But it's it's
it's just, you know, Brian, it's it's the common sense
stuff your dad talked about for decades, You've talked about
for decades. It's just it's it's what you spend your
time on. And we can go after the real issues
of the day, or we can manage the perception of

(02:18:28):
going after issues. And it's just it's just ridiculous. But
you know, but I'll tell you this, the stuff we've
seen over the last two to three weeks, I never
thought I would see in my life. Because I've heard
every politician at every debate for presidential or Congress or
Senate talk about the waste, the waste, the waste, and
not a single one of those buzzards did anything about

(02:18:48):
it when they got in office other than contribute to it.
And I had some you know, high regard for a
lot of our elected officials, but they got there and
got you know, neck deep in all the garbage and
and you know, just played ball like everybody else. So
for the President to go in there and do this,
because I've always been saying, look, you know, the national
debt's going up a trillion dollars every hundred days. That's

(02:19:11):
not sustainable. And the idea that he can come in
and maybe slow that, maybe reverse.

Speaker 12 (02:19:17):
It a bit.

Speaker 18 (02:19:18):
Yeah, all it's going to do is is save us
from driving over the cliff at an earlier date. And
I'm really glad for that.

Speaker 1 (02:19:25):
We can only pray. But those who are listening to
my conversation with Congressman mass the other day probably had
their bubble burst a little bit in that regard, because
we are our own worst nightmare. And he can even
point to a lot of members within the Republican Party
which to sustained this overspending.

Speaker 18 (02:19:41):
It's power, Brandon's power. And when you take away money,
you're taking away people's power. And that's why I'm praying
for President Trump now. More than ever, because he is
going after the power of the people in d C.
In ways that's never been done before. And you talk
about a threat to the it was one thing to
drin the swamp. Round one you do with what he's

(02:20:02):
doing now is I mean, you're going after the power
base of everybody. And I'm telling you, I love seeing
it because he's doing exactly what he promised. I still
tell my friends, if the election was redone today we
had a real redo, he would be elected by a
bigger margin today than he was in November, because I
think even some Democrats can say, look some of this

(02:20:25):
stuff that's happening, where money's being spent. How many people
in North Carolina are still sleeping in tents in the winter,
and we're giving all these hundreds of millions of dollars
to other countries on some of the dumbest things ever there. No,
let's take care of the people that need it in California,
in North Carolina and every other place. School programs. I'd
love to see, you know, meals provided for our kids

(02:20:46):
in school that as opposed to that money going elsewhere.
So many things that have been wasteful, and I'm glad
that the spickett is starting to get turned off.

Speaker 1 (02:20:54):
Amen, Oh I said that word again.

Speaker 6 (02:20:56):
Hang out.

Speaker 12 (02:21:00):
There.

Speaker 1 (02:21:00):
I r Avia six for Jay Ratli Moore to talk
about coming up. I hope you can stick around fifty
five KRC dot com at you line. They know first
Jay Ratler has he's a heart media aviation expert and
he's on the fifty five perse Morning show every Thursday
at a thirty, and I certainly appreciate him being here.
Really quicker if we get through the topics you mentioned

(02:21:22):
the system upgrade, like g if they had only spent
all that DEI and Woke money training people how to
use appropriate pronouns or whatever on a new f air
traffic control system, we'd be a lot better off. My
understanding is it's so antiquated they still use those big
floppy disc if I recall you mentioning that bit right.

Speaker 18 (02:21:39):
There are there are some systems that do fewer than
what we've had before.

Speaker 1 (02:21:43):
But yes, it's it's so old.

Speaker 18 (02:21:46):
You have to google the terms and to find parts
Ryan wants on miss up breaks, and then to find
people that are qualified to replace those parts legacy because
most of them retired twenty years ago.

Speaker 1 (02:21:56):
Yeah, so real quick here. If I mean realistically speaking,
if they dedicated the money and resources toward it, how
long would it take to upgrade the system? Five to
six years?

Speaker 6 (02:22:07):
Easy?

Speaker 1 (02:22:08):
Okay, all right?

Speaker 18 (02:22:09):
And President Trump just has to get the ball moving
in that direction. And once he does, it will not
be finished by the time he leaves office.

Speaker 6 (02:22:20):
But it's needed.

Speaker 18 (02:22:22):
And when you recognize that the aviation industry is integral
part to our nation's economy, why it's only getting money
that falls off the table with scraps has always bothered me.
But I know why because it works in the minute
excuse me. The men and women that are within the
air traffic control system do a very good job of
making it work, even though they're understaffed and they've got

(02:22:44):
things that are so some of them have to have
umbrellas in the air traffic control towers because of leaks
in the roof that.

Speaker 6 (02:22:49):
Haven't been found.

Speaker 18 (02:22:50):
Oh god, you've got all of these things taking place, Brian,
and they find a way to make it work. So
since we've not had issues, the idea of well do
we have to spend money there, No, we don't have to,
And it just it just boggles my mind because we
are so far behind where we need to be, and
aviation is expected to double over the next fifteen to
twenty years. We can't handle what we're doing now alone.

Speaker 6 (02:23:12):
For what's coming.

Speaker 1 (02:23:13):
And we are a moment in technological time away from
our own individual flying helicopter, drone kind of devices, and
that's only going to complicate matters. It's crazy, crazy, exciting times.
We just need it to be.

Speaker 6 (02:23:25):
You know, we didn't need to be safer.

Speaker 1 (02:23:26):
We definitely do because sometimes helicopters fly into airplanes. It's
amazing how that was Donald Trump's fault. I mean Donald
Trump's fault. Seriously, I actually heard that out loud.

Speaker 18 (02:23:36):
Anyhow, of course, yeah, anything that has but I will,
I will take issue with the President when he immediately
came out and said it was a DEI issue. Oh,
I know, I don't agree with that at all, because yeah,
that's ready.

Speaker 1 (02:23:48):
Ready fire aim. Anyhow, airlines asking the president to abandon
the what is called the passenger Compensation Review. What's this
all about?

Speaker 6 (02:23:56):
Jay?

Speaker 18 (02:23:57):
You know you heard me's talk for years that the
Biden minister went after airlines like any other administration, and
I appreciated the job that the Biden administration did. It
was the only thing that they did that I really liked,
but they tried to hold airlines accountable. So one of
the things that President Biden's administration tried to do was
create a passenger protection a bill, and they were soliciting

(02:24:21):
comments on it, still in the solicitation comment phase, and
they're considering whether or not airlines should be required to
pay us for delays now, not weather delays, but delays
they create through mechanical or you know, flight cruise shortages.

Speaker 12 (02:24:35):
Whatever.

Speaker 18 (02:24:36):
Might have to be three hundred dollars if we're delayed
for up to three hours, five hundred dollars if we're
delayed up to six or maybe even seven hundred dollars
if it's a nine hour delay. It's what Europe and
Canada are doing as a way of trying to make customers.
It just protected the airlines taking better care of them.
And it's working well there and it's something that I

(02:24:57):
like because it's holding airlines accountable. Well now, the airline
lobbying group and others had gone to the President saying,
you know, maybe we should just kind of push this
off to the side for now. Maybe later we can
talk about this. One of the reasons airline stocks went
up right after Trump was elected was because many people thought,

(02:25:18):
and rightfully so, that some of this oversight, some of
this pressure was going to be alleviated throttled back. You
had airlines like Delta, United and others contributing a million
dollars to the Trump inaugural campaign, as did Boeing in hopes,
I'm sure that there would be a little bit more
cooperation between the government and the airline industry. So it'll

(02:25:39):
be interesting to see if Donald Trump decides to throttle
back and.

Speaker 1 (02:25:44):
Kind of push this off to the side.

Speaker 18 (02:25:45):
I hope not, but it's one of the things that
I said was going to happen when President Trump was elected,
was that we were going to see Trump term one.
There was a very good relationship between Donald Trump administration
and the airline industry, where the airline industry, I don't
want to say went off unchecked or without supervision, that's
the wrong picture to paint, but they weren't held as

(02:26:08):
accountable as what the Bide deministration had done, and I
will forever be grateful for what they've done. Pete Buotacheck
in the first couple of years was a joke. The
last couple of years Look, he was doing what he
could to try to help force airlines to provide better
service for the airlines, and this latest move could suggest
a step back from that. We'll have to see what

(02:26:29):
the official Trump response is going to be to the
lobbying efforts by the airline industry.

Speaker 1 (02:26:34):
Yeah, I just think I'm about the ripple effect. You know,
you'd get flights delayed. Of course, then that impacts the
connecting flights and whether that plane is going to be
able to operate on time. I mean, it just has
an impact that just keeps going and going. It's like
the butterfly effect almost that they have.

Speaker 18 (02:26:49):
And it is and that's a good point because some
airlines have a very aggressive if everything goes perfect, this
is how many flights we can operate in the day. Well,
we know things aren't going to go perfect. So one
of the reasons that jet Blew and other airlines have
been fined by the FAA for chronically or by the
Department of Transportation for chronically delayed flights is because the
DOT is telling the airlines, look, you know this isn't

(02:27:11):
going to operate on time. You know passengers are going
to be impacted. You should not have this scheduled this
way because it's next to impossible for it to go
the way you have it scheduled.

Speaker 12 (02:27:22):
So as a result, we're.

Speaker 18 (02:27:23):
Gonna we're gonna find you how many millions of dollars
to because of the fact that you are putting out
a schedule and selling a schedule to the public that
you can't possibly maintain. So that's what I like, because
when airlines do things like that, where they come out
with these unrealistic schedules, Brian, it's it's not something that

(02:27:43):
the traveling public can really count on as something that
is gonna get them to their destination without you know,
some sort of a problem in between. So you know,
that's what I like from the DOT over the last
few years is they were really calling the airlines out
for a lot of the craft that they were trying
to push, and when they had these schedules that were
simply just not sustainable, they were not realistic. They were

(02:28:05):
selling tickets anyways, and the administration was saying, uh, and
the fines were minimal, you know, from a monetary standpoint,
and of course they're reduced if the airlines promise never
to do it again, which always drives me crazy because
I don't think I can do that with the irs.
If I've got a problem with them, I don't think
I can negotiate it down. But Airlines can do it
with the government, and we know they're going to do

(02:28:26):
it again because they always do.

Speaker 1 (02:28:28):
Yeah, well, it's not too much of an imposition. I
hold you over. We can talk a little bit more
when we come back from a break. Is that okay, Jack?

Speaker 18 (02:28:33):
I'd love to because Tomorro's Valentine's Day and for Delta
Airlines that's a.

Speaker 6 (02:28:37):
Big data mark.

Speaker 1 (02:28:37):
Fantastic. One more with Jay Ratliff, Hang on and be

Speaker 1 (02:29:37):
Chuck Ingram on fifty five KRC the talk station Hey
fifty to fifty five KRCIT talk Station Bryan Time with
the Jay Ratliffe, I heart mediaviation expert and lucky man.
He married out of his element just like I did.
Smart man he is. I would like to point that out.
And you mentioned Valentine's Day. That's the day that Paula
accepted my proposal of marriage thirty thirty three years ago,

(02:30:01):
so I'm excited it is stuck. Yes anniversary in June's
the thirty three ye anniversary in June, So lucky man
I am. And you mentioned Valentine's Day is a special
day for who is it American.

Speaker 18 (02:30:12):
Delta Delta air Lines. Delta had a really good year
last year, and on Valentine's Day every year they can,
they give their employees profit sharing and they do it
on Valentine's Day. So if you're flying tomorrow and your
Delta employee seems to be, oh, let's say, in a
really good mood, it's because Delta is giving them collectively
one point four billions dollars God tomorrow. It's like four

(02:30:37):
to five weeks of pay in a check as a
thank you for doing a great job. Now, Delta was
my carrier of choice. They've let me down more than
a few times, but still they're the airline that sharing
and I go to anywhere in the world. We're going
to Asia, Europe, or anywhere in the United States. But
Delta does a very good job at giving back to

(02:30:58):
their employees, and it's one of the re is that
you know, they continue to lead the industry in a
lot of different things. But look casts off to Delta
for the job they did last year, and I cannot
be more happy that the employees are getting a part
of that success as they are tomorrow. So to all
our Delta friends, enjoy your day. Tomorrow, it's going to
be a great day.

Speaker 1 (02:31:15):
That's fantastic. And you know, I'm guessing they probably lead
the airline industry and employee retention for that reason. Well,
for a lot of a lot.

Speaker 18 (02:31:24):
I can send twenty minutes on that. They do for
all the right reasons. And you know a lot of
times when I see some of the going above and
beyond stories different airlines, but Delta does it as well.
And when you're talking about making sure that flights are
on time and that flights are completed, and from the
pilots down to the mechanics, the flight attendants, the folks

(02:31:46):
in the tower, maintenance control from all aspects of the operation.

Speaker 1 (02:31:51):
They do a good job.

Speaker 18 (02:31:52):
And it starts with you at Bastian's who's at the
top CEO, and he does a good job. Used to
work for comm Air here many years to go, and
he communicates a good message. Now, they've been big on
the DEI side of things over the years, they have
obviously kind of tilted the other direction.

Speaker 5 (02:32:09):
But they do a good job.

Speaker 18 (02:32:11):
But you know, when they had a school shooting, they
announced that, hey, we're not going to do anything more
at the NRA and things, So they're obviously always looking
to do things in a reactive way, which I never
think is a good idea from a business standpoint, but
from a from an operational standpoint. You know, Delta does
a great job, and they do a great job here
in Cincinnati.

Speaker 1 (02:32:30):
They take good care.

Speaker 18 (02:32:31):
Of our of our customers, and obviously we wish we
had more Delta flights for anybody who's listening, that would
be great. But look, I'm just thrilled that tomorrow is
going to be their day, and anytime Sharon and I
are flying up to or near or after Valentine's Day,
I'm constantly congratulating the crews, everybody that we interact with
on their special day because they they've earned it.

Speaker 1 (02:32:53):
They've earned it. Well. From the idiots doing idiot things
because they're idiots. To the file containing information about actions
do have consequences. Don't point lasers at airplanes.

Speaker 18 (02:33:06):
Two thousand and I think twenty three is last numbers.
I have thirteen three hundred and four laser strikes on
the ground by these handheld powerful lasers to aircraft that
were reported by the Federal Abas Administration at night, when
these powerful lasers hit the ceiling of a cockpit it
can blind the flight crew temporarily during a critical moment

(02:33:28):
of flight on takeoff and landings. People do this. I
don't know why, but you're putting everybody's life at risk.
We've had pilots that had to retire because their eye
was so damaged in the attack that they no longer
can fly. Well, there was somebody outside of Kallusville, Montana.
He's a thirty two year old man that was using

(02:33:49):
a handheld laser and there was a flight instructor that
was in a smaller aircraft assessminate and she followed him,
called the police. They were able to finally nab one
of these people and he's going to jail for two
and a half years.

Speaker 1 (02:34:03):
Good and I'm sure he's.

Speaker 18 (02:34:03):
Gonna be fined by the FAA. And I hope that
this will at least serve as a small reminder. I'd
like it to be a big one for anybody that
is involved in this. Why it is, It's like, I
don't know, it's like dropping rocks off of an interstate overpass.

Speaker 1 (02:34:20):
Yes, you're playing those lives at.

Speaker 18 (02:34:21):
Risk without the rope thought for the well being of
anybody else. It just I don't know, but but again,
this individual is going to jail for two and a
half years, and hopefully we can catch more people that
are doing this because these handheld laser tacks brand are.

Speaker 6 (02:34:36):
On their way up.

Speaker 1 (02:34:37):
Oh I'm certain they're just literally everywhere everywhere. We have
one for our dog. He loves chasing it all around
the park, just absolutely insane. Never has gotten uses.

Speaker 18 (02:34:46):
It for a cat, and I always think it's unfair
because the cat's never going to catch it.

Speaker 1 (02:34:50):
But keep the busy to gives them exercise, all right,
real quick, well and on hub delays as we always do.

Speaker 6 (02:34:57):
Jay, well, my friend, we've.

Speaker 18 (02:34:58):
Got issues in the northeast, Boston and New York today
are giving us right Boston or New York is getting better.
Boston's going to be a mess the rest of the day.
And if you're flying two or through the West Coast,
San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, big time issues there middle
part of the country. Though it's getting better and hopefully
he'll stay that way at least for today.

Speaker 1 (02:35:17):
Enjoy your Valentine's Day and kiss your wife. Jay Ratliff,
