Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:06):
Five oh five.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
If you have cameras the talk station and Happy Tuesday tion. Hmm,

(00:30):
that ended quickly. Joe Strecker must not be here. Sean
Man filling in for Joe's Trecker and already running into
technical difficulties trying to see him anyway, not your problem,
my problem. Will struggle through it. Got a good rundown
thanks to Strekker before you left. He was incentivized to
get a lot of guests lined up because I have
these moments of withdrawal and Joe's not in, even though

(00:52):
Sean does a wonderful job.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
So anyhow, coming.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Up in the fifty five Garcy Morning Show, Todd Zinzer
will be in the studio of the latest song connected Communities.
What does it mean for us? What does it mean
for your neighborhood? So Todd's got the lowdown on that
he's been on top of from day one. So Todd
returns in studio to do that. Follow by it's Tuesday,
We're still gonna do Christopher Smith and Smith Event heard
from him yesterday. Hey let me come on to Marms

(01:16):
like absolutely, Christopher. So seven thirty normally a spot reserved
at seven thirty on Monday we are off on Monday.
I hope you enjoyed your Labor Day, by the way,
and we'll hear from Christopher at seven thirty and of
course inside scoop of breit Bart News. Presently I'm a
little bit of a loss is to know who I'm
talking to from bride Bart, what the subject matter is.

(01:36):
We'll have to manage that one on the fly. Didn't
going to be follow up from Joe on the person
from Breitbart who will be joining the show at eight
oh five, but we'll here, we'll get an inside scoop
as we typically do. Also the Daniel Davis Deep Dive,
I find myself in the exact same situation. I know
we're talking to Daniel Davis at eight thirty like I
do every Tuesday, just don't know who we'll speaking with
him about. Probably the assassination of the Israeli hostages. Not

(02:00):
a real good day for Israel, and of course Hamas,
I think, has promised to pretty much go down that
same path. In other words, they have instructions to kill
the hostages.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
Well.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Israeli military reported recovery the bodies of the six hostages
in that tunnel in Gaza city of Rafa and we
have a spokesperson for Hamas's armed wing, al Casam Brigades,
a person named Abu Abiyada. Close enough, I'm not gonna

(02:35):
apologize for Abu, given what he had to say. Said
new instructions that didn't detail were given to the guards
of the hostages after rescue operation by Israel and JU
At the time, Israeli forces freed four hostages at a
deadly raid which dozens of Palestinians were killed. According to
the statement from Abu, Natanyahu's insistence to free prisoners through

(02:58):
military pressure instead of ceiling a deal means they will
be returned to their families in shrouds. Their families must
choose whether they want them dead or alive. So UH
can sieriably say? I don't know what to say. These
folks are absolutely insane column animals murdering innocent people. Remember

(03:24):
who those hostages were, nine military combatants, women, children, elderly,
et cetera. And they had nothing to do with the conflict.
Yet they were murdered anyway or are in the process
of being murdered, depending on what the day of the
week we're talking about here. Five one, three, seven, fifty
five hundred eight hundred eighty two to three taco pound

(03:46):
five fifty on eighteen and two phones, and as I
quite often do, standing on the shoulders of giants. I
just really love this op ed by Gerard Baker in
the Wall Street General Big Brother is teaching you and
got quite a bit on the failure of DEI. More
more companies falling under pressure and saying no, this isn't working.
In fact, it was an interesting New York Times op
ed piece which says DEI does not work on the

(04:08):
heels of a piece about six months ago or even
less talking about how DEI is great and is working.
I guess we're all learning over time what works and
doesn't work. Anyway, mind your own damn business. Gerard Baker
starts out with where did that come from? We referred
to it as a clever slogan appealing to the most
basic of human desires in American rights, the desire to

(04:29):
be left alone, the right to be free from interference
by an overbearing government.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Amen.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Gerard, his interpretation of it not exactly what Tim Walls meant,
though now referred to as a Walls, which I thought
was a hilarious way of referring to Tim Walls anyway,
governor of Minnesota. Of course, the Democratic vice presidental nominee
has made his catchphrase mind your own damn business. His
wife Gwen repeated it left out the damn part. Speaking

(04:56):
at an educator's for Harris Wall's event Virginia, missus Walla's
former high school English teacher took aim at JD. Vance
over a comedy once made criticizing left wing teachers who
don't have children of their own. She said, let me
use my teacher voice, mister Vance, how about you mind

(05:17):
your own business? As Gerard points out, a remarks part
of a campaign by Democrats who claim that pro traditional
family statements by Vance imply opposition to non traditional means
of production reproduction, including fertility treatments such as those the
Waltzes used to create their own family. There is no
evidence Vance opposes those treatments, and last week Donald Trump

(05:39):
committed somewhat rashly to compel insurance companies to cover in
vitro fertilization. But it was the teacher voice remark that I.
Jard Baker found instructive. It unintentionally captured the democratic idea
of the polity they seek to lead and reshape it

(06:02):
spoke to how they view themselves in us. They are
the teachers, equipped with the knowledge and the authority to
direct their hapless charges. We are the students, naive and
ill informed, sometimes attentive, but too often insubordinate, with minds
that need to be shaped and disciplined. This self image

(06:23):
of democrats and their role in government is benevolent omniscient
educators emerges from a mindset that represents a greater challenge
to our freedoms than any attempts at interference in the
lives of law abiding Americans. The Republicans are accused of planning.
The didactic ethic in which our leaders treat us as
people who can't make good decisions for ourselves has been

(06:45):
vividly on display for over the last decade. We aren't
well informed enough to understand the damaged fossil fuel energy
production is doing to the environment, so we need to
be told what kind of car we can and what
kind of stove we can cook on. We can't be
trusted with information from unreliable sources, like school children reading

(07:09):
naughty books and listening to schoolyard gossip. We must be
protected from misinformation. We aren't sufficiently developed to comprehend the
dangers of firearms, so our leaders must determine who can
have access to them. We didn't have their deep grasp
of the science behind pandemic, so we had to be

(07:32):
instructed to stay home, wear masks, and submit ourselves to
vaccination on pain of losing our livelihoods. Lacking their sophisticated
biological knowledge and understanding of geopolitics, we weren't permitted to
speculate about what caused COVID nineteen either. We must accept

(07:52):
the teacher's word on the subject. Not content with ensuring
our compliance with their Social Studies and Sideians curricula, our
governor Dick Tots insist on teaching us ethics. We need
to be educated in how sinful we are as white people,
as Americans, guilty inheritors of Western civilization. We must learn

(08:13):
the new catechism of critical theory and expiate our sin
The lesson, as it were, of all this that only
lifelong government employees like Kamala Harris and mister Wallas, and
once upon a time President Biden can guide and instruct
the rest of us on how we live to reprimand
and reform us when we go wrong, Democrats will make

(08:36):
their idea of freedom the decisive issue in the selection.
They insist that weird Republicans want to take away basic liberties.
They claim that in everything from reproductive rights and the
status of immigration to laws that regulate voting, Messrs Trump
and Dvance and this Supreme Court would impose a right
wing despotism on the American people, But their own conception

(08:58):
of the continue expanding role of government as some benign
teaching authority represents a much tighter limitation on the freedoms
of most Americans. We can decry mister Trump's personal autocratic sensibilities,
but they claim that he is bent on imposing some
form of theoretic tyranny is absurd. The justices are merely

(09:20):
undoing decades of judicial activision in which judges got to
make policy. Giving power, whether over abortion or the ambit
of regulatory agencies, back to voters and the representatives is liberating,
not enslaving. Can we really look to what the left
has sought to do in the last few years and

(09:41):
deny that another administration of the current ideological tenor would
further limit our freedom. Partisan hyperbole is our modern scourge,
so let's not call them communists. We should recognize them
for what they are. Like all government big wigs throughout history,
they think they know no better. The inevitable upshot of

(10:02):
that self assurance is their right to take powers away
from the people. So let me meet Gerard Baker, use
my student voice to ask the Harrises and the Waltzes
of the world, how about you mind your own business
for once? Five point fifteen five care see he talks
to us again, Gerard Baker, beautifully written, Big brother is.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Teaching you.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Tvinth than I first one to we forecast today You're
gonna have a pleasant, partly cloudy day, lowered humidity which
is great seventy eight for the high fantastic sixty overnight,
partly cloudys Guy's humidity begins to rise tomorrow partly cloudis
Guy's eighty seven for the high down to sixty two
overnight and on Thursday sunny eighty nine for the high
fifty six right now for the five grisd talk station.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
Thout twenty.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
List their lunch tomorrow up to see even Brewery.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
I know Christopher Smith is going to be there, and
he's gonna be on the program this morning doing the
Smith event on a Tuesday. Looking forward to that, and
I did finally, thank you Sean get the information on
the inside Scooper' and here from senior writer John Nolty
and to discuss well a piece that he wrote there Commona.
Harris closes an already disastrous week by trashing gold star families.

(11:23):
I do have that article in front of me. It's
just so amazing. And those families ripped into her like
nobody's business.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Anyway, on a spring springing from Gerard Baker's points on
big brothers teaching you, he meant did mention, you know,
COVID our lords and masters. Remember COVID got to stay inside.
Doctor Fauci admittedly later said that he made up that
whole social distancing thing. Masks don't work, and was widely
reported around the time that they didn't, although he forced

(11:56):
you to get the mask in that vaccine was always
a big problem for a lot of people. He was
speaking at a limited thing called a Limitless Sex Boats
apparently was a gathering on financial freedom and strategic empowerment.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
I believe.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Over the weekend anyway, he launched into a tirade over
the handling of the COVID nineteen nineteen pandemic and of
course he's always been on this. He said, I wrote
a book about Fauci. It's a great book. There are
twenty two hundred footnotes of the book. And I invited
people at the beginning of the book. All my sources
in the book are I did something, and I know
it's a little disjointed, but remember he speaking of free form.

(12:32):
I did something that never been done before, which is
I put them the footnotes on a bar code next
to them, so you can actually, as you read, look
up the sourcing. I invited people to find problems with
the book. I said, tell me what they are, and
we will correct them. We had twenty seven editions. We
had the capacity to correct anything, and nobody ever told

(12:54):
us any factual error in the book. You read that book,
it's hard to And I don't look into Anthony Fauci's head.
I don't looking at Bill Gates's head. I don't say
he did this because he was greedier, because he was manipultive.
I just lay out what he did, and the story
speaks for itself. It's a story really about people of
people involved in really terrible, immoral, homicidal, criminal behavior.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
That's a bold statement.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Using a position the government he had for fifty years
without any election, to clamp down on these totalitarian controls
that were not science based, and that everybody now admits
there was no science. In fact, yesterday the chief attorney
for the FDA admitted that there was no reason. He
admitted because he had lost the case and accorded against
the doctor, but there was no reason to discourage people

(13:43):
from taking ivermectin. Ivermecden was a very very devastating cure
for COVID. It literally obliterated COVID and by depriving people
of ivermectin, many many people, millions of people around the
globe died and they didn't need to. They were cures
for COVID from day one, very effective cures. But they
didn't want that. They wanted the vaccine only. So there's

(14:06):
a rule, a little known federal rule that they were
all aware of, and this is a strange part, folks,
this is creepy, which said that you cannot use an
emergency used authorization for a vaccine if there is an
existing remedy that has already been approved for any use,
any use. So if they admitted that hydroxychlorocleine or femodidine

(14:30):
or ivermectin, or any of the twenty five existing therapeutic
drugs that were very effective against COVID. If they admitted
then any of them were effective, the whole vaccine project
would have fallen apart. They couldn't have done it. And
so they decided they were going to pretend that there
was no cure except for the vaccine, and they gave

(14:51):
people a product that was not properly tested. And you know,
you have a whole generation of kids that now has
got mitoc myocarditis, these terrible hard problems in young athletic boys.
You're seeing so many kids now drop dead on playing fields,
and we never saw anything like this before. On average,
it was I think twenty nine a month globally athletes

(15:12):
who died on the field. We're getting down two hundreds
a month now. There still has to be a reckoning.
The mainstream media hasn't caught up with the science. But
the science is out there now and it's devastating.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Wow. Bold statements from.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
RFK Junior, who is of course now part of the
campaign to elect Donald Trump. Question will he be on
in Donald Trump's cabinet and will that benefit Donald Trump?
As we rapidly approach. November five, twenty five, fifty five
cares detalk station Local stories up. I'd rather talk to you.
If you've got something to say, feel free to give
me a.

Speaker 1 (15:50):
Start listing.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Time for the nine first warning weather forecast a pleasant,
partly cloudie, low humidity day with the highest seven.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
It sounds like perfection. Overnight low is sixty with.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
Partly cloudy sky's eighty seven the heights tomorrow with humidity
rising overnight down to sixty two and on Thursday, sunny
clear eighty nine degrees fifty six degrees. Right now, I
think you about KARSD talk station by thirty on a Tuesday.
Thanks to again to Garay Jeff Walker coming for me

(16:24):
yesterday when I enjoyed my labor day off and had
a really great time at the fireworks. Just an amazing, amazing,
amazing display. Creepy though the drone displays would creep me out,
I mean it was neat.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
It was awesome.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
It looked like there were thousands of those drones in
the guy unbelievably perfectly coordinated in the idea that you
can coordinate that many little individual drones and they could
do all these wild displays. That's a commercial application right there, folks.
I suppose if you have a check book, you can
hire the drone company to come and perform at any
event near you. Imagine if you've got that available on

(16:57):
a commercial level for the general public. And I think of,
for example, the Russia Ukraine War and the use of
drones there just as one illustration of the field of battle.
How unbelievably creepy that is. Anyway, wonder what the military
is capable over those drones. Anyway, Over the local stories,
you can feel free to coff you prefer I'd like

(17:18):
to hear from you. But accuse Syria robber off the
streets after the police say he did it again. This
time he targeted his lift driver. Police records so Sunday,
thirty year old Steve Lamail Ivy Ivory Junior and his
eighteen year old and eighteen year old Rother Simone Azeria
close enough sorry Whitehead took a lift from Columbus to

(17:40):
Columbia Township. When the trip was over, they say, Whitehead
asked to use the driver's phone. That's when Ivory allegedly
pulled out a gun and said to the driver, give
me everything or I'll kill you. Going to the rest report,
Whitehead and Ivory kicked the driver out of the vehicle
and stole the car. The two lead police on a
pursued Whitehead Ivory arrested on Gunway Avenue and price El.

(18:01):
Ivory wanted by multiple police agencies for a string of robberies,
including one on August thirteenth. Harrison police say Ivory walked
into a BP gas station on dry Fork Road, pointed
a gun and an employee, and demanded money back. In
twenty fifteen, Ivory was in court for robbing a family
dollar store in College Hill and trying to ram his
car into a police cruiser. Court documents say he pleaded

(18:24):
guilty to multiple multiple aggravated robbery charges in that case. Okay,
since I police confirm a shooting investigation is going on
along the banks after Riverfest reported about eleven thirty pm
on Sunday, Great American Ballpark and more Line Lockerhouse. One
person went to a hospital expected to recover at least

(18:46):
at this point, according to the lotus latest reporting. Give
a Fox nineteen credit for that. For the details not released,
including the suspect information and what might have led up
to the violence, we have an a Wyoming resident now
under arrest after police people say police rather say he
fired a gun in the direction of two women and

(19:08):
a seven year old boy. The bullet went into the
roof of the front porch. Nobody hurt, thankfully. According to
the Wyoming Police detective Patrick's sublet, let's see here, all
happened at duplex and the five indred block of Oak
Avenue near Wyoming Avenue shortly after eleven pm on Sunday.
Miguel Fritz under arrest on three counts of filonious assault

(19:28):
in a single kind of having weapons under disability. The
women came to rent a jeep from him at the duplex,
but an argument ensued. Fritz became upset and fired the
shot this case, this caused the victims to fear for
the wives and flee on foot to the Wyoming Police Department,

(19:49):
located about a block away. According to the affidavit, responding
officers found Fritz at the duplex, saw shell casings on
the ground. Fritz unable to have a gun due to
a previous felonious assault from twenty thirteen. According to court records,
Judge said his total bond at one hundred and ten
thousand dollars and he has to wear an electronic monitoring unit.

(20:13):
A driver under arrest on charges of aggravated vehicular assault
in connection with a crash that left his twenty two
year old passenger fighting for her life. Frankie Andreola, twenty two,
of Green Township given a sixty thousand dollars bond when
he appeared in court yesterday. According to the crash report
in the court records, Andreola admitted a drinking alcohol before

(20:34):
speeding one hundred and twenty four miles per hour in
a sixty five on ITWO seventy five. This was early
in June. He also told an official with the Hamlin
County Sheriff's Office that he was arguing with his passenger,
a Cleaves woman who is now twenty three, when he
lost control the vehicle on Ito seventy five in Whitewater
Township June ninth. According to the crash Report twenty fifteen

(20:56):
Accurate TLX was taking a curve when Andreella lost control
the sedan and the vehicle became vertically displaced in a
clockwise manner as it exited off the right side of

Las Vegas Hotel guests suing the Venetian Hotel after a
scorpion found its way into his bed and stung him
on his testicles, leaving him with trauma, post traumatic stress
disorder and a frustrated wife who says their sex life
has been ruined. A Gora Hills, California resident, Michael Farci,

(23:30):
sixty two years old, sting at the Venetian after Christmas
last year when the scorpion crawled into his bed and
jammed its stinger into its privates. What he described is
feeling like someone stabbing him with sharp glass or a knife.
He sued the hotel and claiming the scorpion incident left
him with PTSD, emotional trauma, and a sex life that well,

(23:53):
it just isn't there anymore, according to local news eight There.
He said can also indicate, as you saw in the complaint,
we're also making a claim for loss of consortium for
mister Farcie's wife, said his attorney, Ryan verrag.

Speaker 4 (24:09):
John.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
At the hotel owed a duty of care to plains
to provide a clean, safe and sanitary room that was
free of vermin, bedbugs, or similar things, including scorpions. According
to the lawsuit, the victim, Farcie also said the resort
Casino were already aware of an infestation of poisonous, deadly scorpions,
according to the lawsuit. From our understanding, there was some

(24:32):
ongoing construction at the time the incident happened, and just
before the incident happened, and at the time the incident happened. Farcie,
looking for a jury to determine whether or not the
hotel should compensate him for his damages, pain suffering, mental distress,
and loss of enjoyment of life, apparently woke up to
excruciating pain in his growing He shared photos with the

(24:55):
local news there of the scorpion on his clothing, no
reference to the weather. He showed the pictures of his
stung genitals. He fought a medical incident as well, showed
the sweet number and a brief description he wrote to
the hotel staff that said he had been bitten by
a scorpion on his drowing slash testicles. He said the
staff didn't take him seriously. He said they were just

(25:17):
holding their growing area and laughing about it. It was
really embarrassing. When asked for a comment, the Venetian did
not respond. Treated at the Summer Line Hospital, where the
doctors confirmed his physical injuries and noted that he was
suffering from erectile dysfunction after the sting. He said many
effects on my family, my work, everything, in an interview

(25:41):
speaking with local news there. Yeah, I imagine that would
wouldn't it. Let's go to the phones to a Mississippi
James's got this morning, Mississippi James, Happy September. I hope
you had a nice Labor Day holiday, sir. Welcome back.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
Yeah, it was a laid back welcome back to you. Also,
I was just listen at your commentary here about the
COVID shot. So now that he ended up being the
Mr Naight, and I just won'der. What's my long term
protagnoses have to take in four of those shots?

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Oh my god, four of them.

Speaker 3 (26:15):
Yeah, the two shots and the two boosters.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
Well, all I can say is I hope nothing happens.
I think that, you know, there are a lot of
people who struggled. Younger people seem to have been struggling
with the sort of the myocarditises RFK Junior was pointing out,
and I, you know, I don't know what more to say.
I haven't seen statistics on broader populations of people. But
when you've got really healthy athletic you know, twenty two

(26:42):
twenty three year old kids dropping dad. That's a frightening thing.
I don't know if it happens to a more senior population, honestly, James.
But you see the you know, emergency use authorization. You
know there was an untested drug. You and everybody around
the globe. The literally millions, if not millions, of people
who got that vaccine are in essence the test group.

(27:04):
And we're finding out more and more as we gather
research and data to find out whether or not you
there's really anything you need to worry about at this point, Mississippi, James,
I just don't know. I personally had COVID and I
had massive quantities of antibodies. I've been tested for it,
and so I never got the vaccine because I rely
on natural immunity. I did have a very very short

(27:25):
follow up about about a year or so after my
original one, which was devastating. It only lasted a day.
I was fine. It was like, you know, like a cold,
It's like in and out done, no problem. So natural
immunity does work, at least for Brian Thomas. I can't
speak for the rest of the world and honestly, Mississippi James,
thoughts and prayers your direction and everybody else in your
situation who remains with this cloud of question marks hanging

(27:47):
over their heads. God bless you serve a fantastic week
and thanks says always for calling five forty six right

(29:31):
excuse me, kind of early in the morning for me. Uh,
they are that whold a meeting I guess either today
or sometimes this week regarding about all this. But uh,
I wanted you to if you knew any information about this,
I know you're not in the conspiracy theory.

Speaker 3 (29:49):
And I know that.

Speaker 6 (29:51):
A couple of years, well after the twenty twenty election,
Dines de Suza put together that two thousand mules, and
the media, yeah, Google and everybody shut that down so quick.
About this ballot harvesting, well, I don't listen to politicians.
I watch what they do more than listening to them,

(30:12):
because their actions speak louder than their words. And I
can't help but think. I can't help but think after
And I'm not trying to be a conspiracy theorists, but
I'm just I'm just looking and watching what they're doing.
It's like a chess game move. You see them putting
in these more regulations regarding drop boxes. Got to have

(30:33):
like if you're dropping off a bunch, you gotta have
like an id. You can't strop them in the box,
you got to take them inside. And regarding all of this,
just all the fingers are kind of pointing to that.
So my point is is, if there is even one
place in one state where somebody has dropped off ballot

(30:54):
harvesting type ballots, that's just that's just one too many
as far as I'm concerned. And I praise Lrose for
what he's doing putting this in place, and every state
should put this in place. I don't know why the
Democrats wouldn't want Instead, they would rather call it voter suppression. Yeah,

(31:15):
I would want a secure voting system.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
I would want that.

Speaker 4 (31:18):
They should want that.

Speaker 6 (31:19):
So in the name of the other fellow that don't
call in much anymore, don't vote Democrat. That's to let
you take it from here.

Speaker 2 (31:32):
Considering there's only thirty seconds left in this segment, not
much I can taste. Yeah, have agate suit over a
ruling allowing only certain family members to return absentee ballots
on behalf of relatives who are hospitalized or homebound because
of an illness or disability spouses, parents, siblings, grandparents, but
not grandchildren or caretakers. Apparently US District Judge Bridget Meehan

(31:53):
Brennan so the law runs a foul of the Voting
Rights Act, which allows voters with disabilities to get assistance
from anyone except the employee or union representative. In response
to Paul Lrose, they said will require people helping voters
with disabilities to bring ballots inside the Board of Elections
and sign a form confirming that they're following the rules.
This means Ohioans may only place their own ballots in

(32:15):
a dropbox. That's the current status of the way I
think things are. But trust me, that is not the
only lawsuit that's going on in this country of ours.
I mean, hell, the November election is It's in November, right,
I mean, come on, And you know, as an attorney,
I can tell you, and you know it just from
your own observations, whether you practice law or not, the
wheels of justice tend to spend really slowly. So the

(32:39):
idea that all these things can get resolved in advance
of the November election, I wouldn't cling to that notion.
So yeah, lawfair is alive and well, and it's coming
from both sides of the political spectrum, and it is
rather frightening. And all they need to do is sow
the seeds of suspicion on either side. Whoever claims to
have been the winner, whoever is you know, certain is

(33:00):
the winner of the election. The other side is going
to be pulling their hair out and scrying foul and uh,
just gird your loin's, folks. I cannot imagine it being pretty.
I don't want to have to say that out loud,
but you know, I mean it's in maybe not a
conspiracy theorist, my friend pattern observer, I believe is the

(33:22):
more accurate way of phrasing that five fifty six fifty
five Carcity talk station. You want to call feel free.
I'd love to hear from you. Got to take a
quick break. I'll be right back after the news. Eighty
six oh five here fifty five carrisit De talk station

I certainly did. It was wonderful heaving three days off.
And I certainly appreciate Gary Jeff Walker for covering for

I got CJ on the line. Hang on one second, CJ.
I just want to let folks know who are just

Christopher Smith aman one day late, better late than never.
We'll do the Smith event at seven thirty with former
Vice Mayor of the City of Cincinnati. At eight o five,
we got the inside scoop with senior writer John Nolty
returning to talk about Harris. Kamala Harris trashing gold Star

(34:24):
families and that's pretty much a summon substance of what
she was doing. Boy that they came out swinging against
Kamala Harris. Mad as hell. They are Daniel Davis Deep Dive.
That'll be at eight thirty and our ass the expert
presumed John Roulman from Cover Cincy, who was at the fireworks,
had to enjoy the company of John and his wife

(34:45):

Let's start with CJ, who's been kind enough to hold CJ.
Welcome to the program. Happy Tuesday.

Speaker 7 (34:58):
Thank you, I you had a great weeken Before I
get to what I called about, it was nice of
Kamala Harris yesterday to give homage to Leghorn Foghorn.

Speaker 8 (35:07):
In that speech on the Union on.

Speaker 7 (35:09):
His sixty fifth birthday yesterday. I read it, and her
ability to do the Hillary Clinton change my accent at
any given point was quite on yesterday.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
I gotta look at the quote. It's the sad thing
about it here. You know, I worked at a media company.
I can't get audio from my computer. So someone sends
me a YouTube or a link or whatever. There's a
link on a news site. If I click on it,
I can't hear it. I don't know why that is,
but that's my reality here. So I saw like three
or four articles on the Kamala Harris most recent accent,

(35:42):
and Foghorn Leghorn was mentioned.

Speaker 1 (35:44):
I'm like, damn it.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
I wish I could hear how she sounded, because I'm
don't have to go back to do it when I
get home after work today.

Speaker 7 (35:50):
It was a perfect imitation of it, and she should
be the new voice of Foghorn Lakethorn. But but I
will say this about the Republicans of the Senate. If
the election were held today, it's a fifty one to
forty nine Republican Senate. But I will say this in
Pennsylvania McCormick looks like he's really got the momentum on

(36:13):
his side, and his attacks from Kamala Harris is really
helping Trump.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
In that state and then in this state.

Speaker 7 (36:20):
I was watching Lega MX Soccer Mexican Soccer League on
Saturday night, and I was incredibly impressed by the number
of commercials that Bernie Moreno is running during soccer games
on Spanish television. I wish they were in Spanish, but
he is making a play and I am very curious
to see how that works, especially as he is propping

(36:41):
up the fact that he is a Columbian immigrant who
team here legally and he is not scared to say
that on those commercials and a lot and my wife
being from Mexico, that is a bigger deal amongst the
Hispanic communities and what most people believe or think. And
she is not a political person. But I know when
my wife gets her attention caught is when she all

(37:01):
of a sudden looks up at the TV.

Speaker 3 (37:03):
And that is what she did, because she's not a big.

Speaker 7 (37:05):
Soccer fan, but she started watching a lot of those commercials,
and I think Moreno is starting to catch a little
momentum here.

Speaker 2 (37:13):
I am so happy to hear you say that. Obviously,
I am not a soccer fan, and of course I
don't think I've ever watched Mexican TV since I don't
speak the language. But that is an awesome place for
Morena to bring his message across to those many people
within the immigrant community at large who do not appreciate
this open border's reality. I mean, it is harming everyone,

(37:35):
you know, and especially for those who played by the rules.
I mean, those people tend to be far more angry
than just your average person who doesn't seem to be
impacted by it. Oh, yeah, we have an open border.
We'll figure it out. But you know, if you went
through the process, and you know how many years it
took to be an actual citizen by following the path
that's set forth in our laws, it's rather complicated, it's onerous,

(37:56):
but you've you know, reached that finish line. You gets
sworn in, you're an American citizen, and then you're standing
there watching millions of people flow across the border and
basically essentially get everything that you got after all of
your hard work. Yeah, it's a message that resonates, and
I'm glad to see Bernie's outswinging, And I know it
was worried a little bit over the summer that I
didn't see him. Moreno add that they maybe that was

(38:17):
simply because Shared Brown had to launch his efforts to
transform himself into some sort of centrist, which he's not,
but he had to get ahead of it because so
many people already knew what his views were. Lockstep voting
with the Biden administration ninety eight percent of the time. Yeah,
go ahead and try to unring that bell. Shared, So
Moreno outswinging now, and it's a wonderful thing. Help him out.

(38:39):
Bernie Moreno for a senate here in the state of Ohio,
appreciate that, brother five on three seven four nine fifty
eight hundred eight two three talk. I'll let you dive
on into it yourself. But I was so pleased to
see that more and more companies are getting rid of
this ridiculous DEI initiatives because it's terrible not only for
the company, but for company morale, of employee retention of course,

(39:02):
for the bottom line. You, the investor, are struggling and
suffering because they pursued DEI initiatives rather than pursuing what
they owe to you, which is the bottom line, a
fiduciary obligation to make sure they maximize shareholder value. That's
the law. And so far, and we've got this guy
named Starbucks out there. I know my listeners have heard

(39:24):
of him. He has elevated everyone's attention to these various organizations, companies,
and businesses out there who have gone full on woke
and it's crazy. The most recent one to back off
this woke policy as a consequence of filmmaker Robbie Starbucks
investigation of these issues is Ford Motor Company. How about

(39:45):
that one nice feather and Starbucks gap on behalf of on,
behalf of all of us who think this stuff is insane.
He posted on next to the other day Big News.
We're in the middle of investigating woke policies at Ford,
but this morning Ford confirmed to me that they are
making changes ending participation in the Woke Corporate Equality Index
score credit system. Apparently, no more donations to gay pride

(40:10):
or trans events ERG groups must be focused on business,
no supplier or dealership diversity quotas. CEO calling for respect
and civility towards all ideologies, hinting at a merit based approach,
which is what has always served us well in this country.
Jeb Henslering his op ed piece just mentioned a couple

(40:33):
points and it points on many big main companies have
scrapped DEI. Jack Daniels announced that it was ending DEI initiatives, saying,
the world has evolved. Harley Davidson, and you can imagine
a company like Harley going down DEI road not paying
really close attention to their core the core market supporters

(40:53):
of the people who buy their bikes. Harley Davidson dropped
it's DEI policy, saying it's going to focus on retaining
our loyal writing community, tractor supply. They also were involved
in DEI like whoopsoh, wait a minute, maybe this is
the wrong way to go down, saying we have heard
from customers that we have disappointed them eliminating its DEI

(41:16):
positions within the company. And they give credit to consumers
and shareholders. Consumers and shareholders showing that they're willing and
able to defend their values with cash, credit cards and investments.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
You know it does work. Word gets out.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Companies have been focusing on equity rather than merit, putting
people in positions that merit did not earn them. Obviously,
that creates a terrible environment. This is the same thing
for the military folks. It's noted that pensioners are also
pushing back folks with retirement accounts. Employees of American Airlines

(41:55):
fought a class action lawsuits against American alleging it mismanaged
employees for or by loading their accounts up with ESG investments.
Investing in ESG is not maximizing shareholder value. That's a
violation of fiduciary didies. And I have well optimism that
that class that class action lawsuit against Americans is going

(42:16):
to benefit the employees and that they will prevail. And
of course, you know, Jeb henz Learning has a go at,
you know conservatives who see this and say, hmm, we
need a government solution. We need to make the law
this way. We need to prevent people from you know,
not investing in oil companies or something. It's sort of

(42:38):
the antithesis by way of legislation that the Democrats are
pushing through by way of legislation. You know, his point is, hey,
the better approach focus on corporate finance rather than ideology.
And he gives props to Florida last year. They are
apparently enacted a law that did that. If you want
to be a fiduciary of Florida State funds, you have
to be a fiduciary. Investment decisions must be driven solely

(43:01):
by returns. Fortunately, asset message managers across the United States
are now speaking more about fiduciary due to the ESG.
Black Rock, an early adopter of ESG, the largest asset
manager in the world or the nation anyway, apparently now
even helping finance Texas's new stock exchange, promising to be

(43:23):
a political moving away from the course of the DEI says,
the tide continues to turn against wokeism in corporate America,
and that's good. But private citizens are largely responsible. They're
successfully using their voice and economic leverage in civil society.
But as populous conservative elected officials began to legislate business practices,

(43:48):
they got to be careful not to sacrifice free speech,
free enterprise, and limited government. These freedoms remain foundational to
our culture and we must protect them. To adapt an
infamous Vietnam War, conservatives must be careful not to destroy
freedom in an effort to save it. But the fundamental
point of all this is you have a tremendous amount

(44:10):
of power and sway merely because you're overwhelmed with social
media embracing DEI and talking about how right it is
and how wrong you are. You're on the right side
of the argument because when it comes to the bottom line,
like I say all.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
The time, it's the bottom line.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
You maximize my return, you build my wealth. You're a
company engaged in business, make money. DEI does not make
you money, and ergo, you are in violation of your
fiduciary obligation to me as a shareholder, whether through some

(44:48):
mutual fund or individually purchased stock. That's their job, and
more and more companies are waking up to that reality
and also waking up to the reality that yeah, dn
DEEI policies does impact their bottom line, and not in
a positive way. Six seventeen fifty five Ker City Talk

We're gonna start with Danash. Danash, welcome back, my friend.
It's always a pleasure hearing from you.

Speaker 8 (46:36):
Good morning, Brian. I'd like to share with you some
alarming news that came out last week, not only for US,
but for China, India and global health, that there is
a decline in the population growth break and it became
very obvious that there has to be some kind of

(46:57):
a diabolic asked a plan to be able to pull
such a stunt throughout the world. And it's amazing that
if not hitting headlines and concerning even the leaders of
our nation and especially the medical community. So I did

(47:18):
some research the last week and I was shocked to
what I found out. That the two parties that are
now in operation are really responsible. One is the medical group,
or as say, the cabal that is tied to Bill

(47:40):
Gates and the world health organizations. And another is the
independent medical research and scientists who have been sounding the
alarm since twenty twenty. We have a doctor in Ohio
I don't know you heard of or not, Sherry A Tenpenny.

(48:00):
She made an announcement and she got really put through
the coals because she told the shoot back in twenty
twenty one in the Ohio Senate, she said, these M
and A shots are not meant for help, but they're
meant to kill people. So it's amazing that these two

(48:23):
groups are still opposite and one is providing all kinds
of scientific data and proof of what they're saying. But
on the other hand, the government and all the other
medical community who's selling and using the mr anda injections
are not providing the same detail. So there's the doctor

(48:45):
David Martin. He is the doctor or the organization responsible
for US government tracking bio weapon development and patents put
together a presentation to the EU Parliaments Starchborg in twenty

(49:06):
twenty three. It's a half an hour video on the internet.
It's called David Martin Dash Expert Hearing EU Parliament Strasburg.
So to make really the serious acquisition to say, hey,
something is going on wrong that how come in all

(49:28):
the major population countries and the United States that since
twenty twenty the population growth as declient and it will
continue to decline because they continue to use these mr
and A injections they call them vaccines, and they're not.

(49:49):
So the challenge we have as seizens is to do
our own research. And I talked to our primary doctors
and the doctors that I interact, and seventy five percent
of them are telling me the same thing that yes,
these injections are detrimental to your health, but they are

(50:09):
being pushed to inject people with that, and they're doing that.
The Democratic Party mandated it back in twenty twenty one,
two or three days after they took over the office,
and shared brown boodhis for that. So it's amazing that
such a life seting issue has gone unnoticed.

Speaker 2 (50:32):
Well, I don't know if there's a correlation to NASH.
I'm not saying there isn't. What I do know is
you are dead on accurate in terms of population growth.
European Union, Japan is notorious for not even being close
to replacement population births, and as well as here in
the United States. There are other factors at play here though.
You can't overlook the economy. For example, young people can't

(50:54):
buy a home. If they can't buy a home, they're
a little less likely to go ahead and want to
start a family. They're very selfish. We have this built
in entitlement selfish nature. Well, if I have kids and
I'm not going to be able free life and travel,
and you know, I mean, you know all the arguments,
and there may very well be a component here connects
with the mRNA vaccine. The more we learn about it,
the scarier it becomes. Look at what RFK is screwing

(51:17):
about right now. He wrote a whole book on it,
and no one called him out as being a liar
for that. Thank you, sir, appreciate it.

Good welcome back, my brother God bless collective bargaining. Okay,
I got one thing to say about our first congressional district,
old Greg, pandering Greg.

Speaker 3 (51:58):
We got to get him out of their brother after.

Speaker 6 (52:00):

Got to go.

Speaker 2 (52:13):
So Orlando, Orlando Sony is He's Orlando is a brilliant,
good job. Orlando is a brilliant man. He is absolutely

Landsman as connection with BLM. I know what Greg Landsman's
voting record is, and Bobby you are right. But Orlando
is a great patriot, a brilliant man. West Point Grad prosecutor,

(52:37):
you know, just he's got all the street credit you
need for that office. And having met him many many
times and heard him speak, I am confident that he's
going to do a far better job. So appreciate the

Joe Strekker is having a nice time on the first
vacanty of a vacation he's taken in like decades down
in Florida right now, and I'm sure he's staring at
the back of his eyelids as I would be if
I was in his situation. Sean McMahon covering for Joe,
so you can call in and talk to Sean. Uh,
you know whether or not the certainly we are not

(55:41):
having as many children as we have been historically. There's
a problem with population growth. We're not even at replacement population.
So I don't know if it has any connection with
the mRNA vaccine. And there's a lot of articles out
there about how bad those things are. More and more
articles popping up. I got three of them for more here.
While Densher was on the phone having his conversation, I

(56:03):
did quote R. FK Junior calling for a reckoning due
to the immoral, homicidal, criminal behavior that doctor Fauci. You know,
there's in government engaged in during the COVID nineteen pandemic. Man,
that's harsh words. And he wrote a huge book on
doctor Fouch you and know all the problems associated with it.
And as he pointed out, he was just speaking at
this limitless ex bo. He said, listen, I got twenty

(56:25):
two hundred footnotes. I made it easy because I got
barcode in the book where you can easily immediately read
the footnote to support what I've got in there. I
invited every human being on the planet farror to a
factual check and find any errors in the book. Nobody
said anything was a lie, nobody said anything was wrong.
So you know, there's all that information out there. But

(56:47):
then again I pivoted over and I said, you know, well,
there's other things involved with maybe people's decision whether or
not to have children. It is easy to not have
children with modern you know, birth control right, and economics
factors into it. You know, you hear, oh my god,
it costs three hundred thousand dollars to you know, bring
up a child in this world from you know, kindergarten,

(57:09):
from from birth through age eighteen or whatever. And you
know I heard that. I'm like, yeah, and knowing what
I know about my experience as a father. If i'd
had that up front, I've written a check. Fine, let's
get it out of the way. It's worth every penny.
Being a parent is a It is an extremely beautiful experience.

Speaker 3 (57:28):
It is.

Speaker 2 (57:29):
It is something that does not have an equal Having
children and and and being able to be proud of
them and help them along over the way and teach
them and guide them. You learn more about yourself and
your faults and your foibles. And that's a beneficial thing
for a person because they have to be the guide
for the child's life if they care enough to be
that guide. You got to look in the mirror, folks

(57:51):
when you're when you when you have children. So it
creates better people. So there's a million reasons why, but
there's a whole bunch of reasons why you might not
moving away from the end na I mentioned housing and
housing affordability is now a massive problem. If you haven't
gotten a memo on that, of course we have a
problem now. We had a surgeon demand during COVID people

(58:11):
were flushed with cash from the stimulus checks. They said,
I'm locked down at home, I'm working from home. Now
I want more space. I'm going to move out to
the suburbs and not have to work, you know, and
I don't have to drive my car into the city. Historically,
low mortgage rates at the time, and the supply of
new and existing homes was constrained already. If you already

(58:33):
had a low mortgage, nobody wanted to sell their house
because the mortgage rate started ticking up. Right now, if
you're locked in at a three percent why would you
want to move someplace else from pay six and change
or maybe even more. Accord to data KAMPABA, the National
Association of Realtors, buying an average home is now out
of reach for the majority of Americans. The annual household
income needed to afford a median price home shot up

(58:57):
to sixty percent since January two, twenty twenty two, priced
out of the market. Back then, minimum income to buy
a mid range house, which was then three hundred and
eighty thousand dollars, you had to make at least seventy
four thousand dollars. Let's say you didn't spend too much,
you know, you weren't house poor. However, since then, this

(59:19):
affordability gap has widened rather broadly. Now you need one
hundred and twenty thousand dollars to fight to to to
to purchase a hump one hundred and twenty annual, and

(59:40):
then pivot over to California when Nancy plus was asked
about funding the American Dream for illegal immigrants. This is
the one where California's proposing to give up to one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars to every moving person to
make the American dream of home ownership available to all people.

(01:00:00):
Talk with Nancy Pelosi. So the California lawmakers just passed
the law hasn't yet been some by Governor Newsom, but
giving government assistance to undocumented immigrants to buy houses, it's
kind of a different place than the Democratic Party used
to be on immigration, is it not. I'm not going
to say that's what the country is going to do

(01:00:20):
or what the country's going to do, but it's certainly
where California is. Her response, Well, let me first say
immigration had always been a bipartisan issue. Marxist, Well, not
free housing, he said. Her response, Well, it's not free housing,
it's the American Dream being available to more people. California

(01:00:43):
is always in the lead. Maybe others will follow that lead,
but it's up to those states. But we're very blessed
here with beautiful diversity of our then Mayor cuts in,
so you'd vote for this law. Her response, five, d's
a dodgeballing part. I'm not familiar with exactly what this is,

(01:01:04):
but making the American dream of home ownership available to
all people is something we have to do for people
who are here now. Again Bill Marcut's in, this is
for the undocumented. Her answer, well, what I would like
to do is move them to documented oh saying the

(01:01:27):
quiet part out loud. Not that it necessarily comes to
surprise anybody listening audience that the multitude of humanity that's
floated over our borders illegally will ultimately be given a
pathway to citizenship. But this is going back to the
home price of home ownership. Do you think will the

(01:01:49):
cost of homes go up or will they go down
if people are given interest free the down payment mind
and she segued into oh, we need a pass comprehensive
immigration reform, which, again going back to her saying the

(01:02:10):
quiet part out loud, that means moving them into documented
slash legal status. That's what the Dems want, and trust me, folks,
it's coming like a freight train in your direction. And
don't forget whether or not these undocumented immigrants becoming documented
will vote for Democrats or Republicans if they are given
the right to vote, And that's something else they're doing
out in California. They will change the makeup of Congress

(01:02:36):
because every single human being will be counted for the
purposes of the census, whether or not they vote or not.
And all these blue cities who are struggling mightily with
the unbelievably horrific debt and weight of having to care, feed,
and house for these migrants, will ultimately end up with
more members, more representatives in the House, and therefore more control.

(01:03:00):
I suppose control to get through transferring these people to
documented status six forty eight right now, if you have

Speaker 1 (01:04:29):
If you haven't seen the reporting on.

Speaker 2 (01:04:30):
That real quick, I had, you know, mentioned illegal immigration earlier.
Of course it's a huge problem. We talked about the
Pelosi statement, wanting to make them documented as opposed to
illegally anyway, New Yorkers from New York Post real quick.
Here just just one of the multitude of impacts that
the massive flood of illegal immigration is having.

Speaker 1 (01:04:53):
Crime.

Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
Not all immigrants are criminals, we all know that, but
a lot of them are. Police sources sharing with the
New York Post staggering estimate that as many as seventy
five percent of the people that they've been arresting in
Midtown Manhattan recently for crimes like assault, robbery, domestic violence
are in fact migrants, not citizens.

Speaker 4 (01:05:17):
Migrants.

Speaker 2 (01:05:19):
In parts of Queens, they say, the figure is about
sixty percent, according to the Post reporting, on any given day,
Big Apple criminal court dockets are packed with asylum seekers
who have broken the law made works by sanctuary city laws,
which means New York cops are not allowed to work
with Immigrations Customs enforcement on cases where they believe the
suspects are in the country illegally. Plus, the New York

(01:05:40):
Police Department said it's barred from tracking the immigrants and
immigrants immigration status of the offenders, making it virtually impossible
for authorities to get their arms around the problem and
come up with a solution. They say words gotten out
in the shelters about the city's lacks bail guideline. Remember

(01:06:01):
that when you're voting this November here in Hamilton County,
there are certain judges who are tough on crime and
there are others who are very liberal. Pay attention to
Melissa Powers Facebook page and you'll know exactly what I'm
talking about. Anyway, The bottom line is words gotten out.
Migrants know they're going to go back right out on
the street if they get picked up for committing a crime,
and they're not going to have to post any bail,

(01:06:21):
so making a terrible situation worse. They opened their arms
to this reality. And you can draw your own conclusions
whether the New York elite politicians wanted this flood so
they could impact their House of Representative numbers, or they
just were idiots when they implemented the sanctuary City's policies,
bringing this well mess down upon themselves. Todd's ends are

(01:06:45):
on connected communities at the top of the our news
that you can stick around and be right back.

Seven oh six, I give out carc De Talk Station
a very happy Tuesday to you a short work week,
and then yesterday off. I hope you had a wonderful
Labor Day weekend and I certainly did because I got
to go to the fireworks, spend some time with my
family and sleeping yesterday. So thanks again to Gary Jeff
Walker for covering for me yesterday. And welcome back to
the fifty five KRC Morning Show, Todd Zenzer. He has

(01:07:36):
got an amazing background by way of what inspector of
the general US Department of Commerce you get. I mean,
your your goal background is like statistics and stuff, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:47):
Todd, Welcome back.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
I was good to have you in the studio well
uniquely in position, and you have been following what is
what I'm going to argue boiled down is a failure
of representative government. This Connected Communities program that the city,
the Cincinnati since At Council and the mayor are shoving
down everyone's throats within the city limits that they must
transform their zoning laws, that you will have no say,

(01:08:10):
whether you're a township or some sort of community government
within the city of Cincinnati. You don't get a say.
You may want it, but you're gonna get it whether
you want it or not.

Speaker 9 (01:08:20):
Right, they've rezoned probably more than fifty percent of the city.
They've rezoned it from single family housing to what they
call middle housing, which is somewhere between a single family
and one of these twenty unit apartment buildings. And they've
also reduced the height limitations, they've reduced the parking minimums

(01:08:45):
in those areas. And the idea is to put more
people in the same area, the same land, and to
get more people into the city. So they they say
that it's going to take ten years to get this done.
So it's another one of these ten year deals like

(01:09:06):
our deferred maintenance with the railroad money. And I don't know,
hopefully i'll live to see the end of it.

Speaker 2 (01:09:12):
But can I just put a request out there? And
I hope Fred is listening. Fix Fred Street. You know,
he's become my sort of rallying cry. Poor Fred just
listened to the City of Cincinnati. All he wants is
damn street fixed. And he's upset because no one fixes
his street. We have crumbling infrastructure, and Todd you know,
as well as anybody, hundreds of millions of dollars worth

(01:09:33):
of failed in crumbling infrastructure, and they're behind. I mean,
they have a mandatory minimum of certain number of road
moles to repair every year, and they neglected it forever
in pursuit of what shiny things like streetcars and some
other projects.

Speaker 9 (01:09:46):
Exactly. It's funny, Brian, because folks on our coalition actually
would like to learn Fred Street and we'll go, Yeah,
we'll go to the city about it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:56):
Somebody, Fred, if you're out there, call in.

Speaker 4 (01:10:00):
I tell you what.

Speaker 2 (01:10:01):
You don't even need to get on the air. Just
leave your street name. You don't need to give your address.
Your street name was Sean who's covering for Joe's tracker,
And we'll see if we can't specifically get your street fixed,
because damn it, you're deserving of having a road. It
doesn't throw your car out of line when you drive
home every day. All right, Ben, thanks for doing that.
He mentioned a coalition, and there are coalitions out there

(01:10:22):
that are addressing this Connected Communities program. But my understanding
is they're falling on deaf ears and going back to
my comment about representative democracy, a lot of people are
afraid of this program, but what it might do to
transform people's neighborhoods.

Speaker 9 (01:10:36):
Right, we're gathering folks to push back against it. And
what we're finding is that the idea for connected communities
actually is not from the Democrat Party down. It's from
a global nonprofit called the Urban Land Institute, and you

(01:10:56):
can go to report day to June of twenty twenty
one that lays out the entire program for Connected Communities.

Speaker 2 (01:11:04):
Isn't this Agenda twenty one? Well, I mean they don't
bring that one up anymore, but that used to be
the cause that everybody was pushing for concentrated urban living
with you know, public transportation being your only vehicle to
get from point A to point B.

Speaker 9 (01:11:20):
Right, there's a lot of ideology into it, and yes,
I think it is all related to this Agenda twenty
one and the fifteen minute City and all the rest
of that. And the problem is that that doesn't that
doesn't fit the Cincinnati neighborhoods. Cincinnati is very proud of
its fifty two neighborhoods and how each neighborhood is unique
and has its own character. And now the city has

(01:11:42):
come in with this blanket approach to adding density to
the city and people want to push back against it.
And that's what we're working on.

Speaker 1 (01:11:50):
Well as well. You should.

Speaker 2 (01:11:51):
You know, I'm going back to fred Street. This isn't
if you build it, they will come. They will come
if you have solid infra structure, if you have low crimes,
if you have the fundamental basics of government, you know,
sewer lines that actually don't flood your basement with raws sewerage, right,
you know, that's it. If you create a welcoming environment

(01:12:14):
like that, you people are going to want to come
and build and buy.

Speaker 9 (01:12:16):
Yeah, And the city administration in the council, if they
wanted to paint the picture that anybody opposed to this,
you know, is a bigot or or doesn't want things
in their backyard. One of the council members actually send
an email around to supporters calling us Nimbi's like, we
don't have any legitimate opposition to what they're going on.

(01:12:39):
And for the most part, people we talk to in
our coalition they just want to have an opportunity to
provide an input and to fine tune this proposal by neighborhood.
And it's not an unreasonable position to have.

Speaker 2 (01:12:52):
No, it isn't if you have a single family residential neighborhood.
I can't imagine the impact that coming in and building
a multi story, twenty plus unit, you know, apartment complex
and that neighborhood could do to it. I mean, most
notably just finding places for people to park.

Speaker 9 (01:13:09):
Yeah, the parking is a big, big issue.

Speaker 2 (01:13:11):
It's a critical issue. It's an issue for downtown Cincinnati
and literally everything they talk about.

Speaker 9 (01:13:15):
Yeah, there's a big issue going on right now down
and over the rune Ton Yeah, yeah, where people are
very upset about the city's approach to parking down there.
And it's funny because the city's answer is, well, there's
a government solution for this. We'll put permit parking around
and we'll manipulate the permits and things like that. And

(01:13:38):
it's just a mindset of this city Council that the
government has a solution, and the government solutions aren't always
the best solutions.

Speaker 1 (01:13:47):
Generous aren't always the solution.

Speaker 9 (01:13:51):
Part of the things that we found is that the
city in its own grant application to HUD for a
a grant application. Actually we haven't seen the final application,
we've seen a draft. Even in there, they call the
citizens barriers, barriers to what they want to do. And

(01:14:13):
it's also in this June twenty twenty one report from
the Urban Land Institute identifying the citizens as barriers. And
that's just not the way things are supposed to work.

Speaker 1 (01:14:22):
Does it say deplorable barriers by any chance?

Speaker 9 (01:14:25):
No, I don't think they say that.

Speaker 2 (01:14:27):
Just because you care about your community and you want
to know how this is going to impact. You want
some reasonable say in the process. You're a barrier and
to what? And I still go back to Todd. This
is not we aren't talking about using government money to
build these homes. This is going to be sort of

(01:14:48):
a free market concept, right right. Change the zoning allows
some flexibility. It sounds really glorious, and builders, investors will
come in and build multiple unit dwellings, even a single
family dwelling, as the case may be.

Speaker 9 (01:15:02):
Well, it's going on all over the country. It's going
on here in Ohio and Columbus and Cleveland. And the problem, Brian,
is that there's no evidence that it has actually worked.
There's no place in the country where people can say, yes,
we've done this. Up zoning is what they call it,
and it's really helped our housing situation. You're not going

(01:15:23):
to find one.

Speaker 2 (01:15:24):
And maybe that's because the particular areas where they're trying
to accomplish this do not have solid infrastructure. They do
have higher crime, they do have problems with utilities and
other things that you and I were just speaking about
a moment ago.

Speaker 9 (01:15:38):
Well, the problem. The problem is that we're concerned about
constant further concentration of poverty. Yeah, that these developers will
come in to these load to moderate income areas and
put more dense housing in there to further concentrate poverty,

(01:15:58):
and the city is not I'm not dealing with that.

Speaker 2 (01:16:02):
Well, that sounds to me like the failed exercise they
went through in Chicago with the Cabrini Green housing project
and what was the other one. I can't recall anyway,
Cabrini Green was at north of the Loop and the
other one was south of the Loop, but Taylor Homes
I believe anyway, concentrated poverty bred nothing but massive despair
for everyone and also served to run further development in

(01:16:25):
those communities.

Speaker 9 (01:16:25):
Didn't they tour that day?

Speaker 1 (01:16:26):
They tore it down. Huh.

Speaker 2 (01:16:28):
It's amazing you learned from the mistakes of the folks
in Chicago. We'll continue with Todd Zenzer on the situation
with the connected communities, but also he has an update
on this Vinebrook Real Estate Investment Trust suffered a bit
of an interesting legal challenge and didn't go real well
for the city from what I gather. We'll hear from

(01:16:48):
Todd on that one as well, then Christopher Smith at

To connected communities.

Speaker 2 (01:17:50):
Just sounds like a ready fire, aim kind of strategy
that's gonna end up doing. Overall nobody really much good,
but it sounds like these You find out that you know,
the elector at the representative the folks in the representative
government we live in, the folks who are supposed to
be representing the voter's interest are ignoring the voters and
basically calling them an impediment to what their view of

(01:18:10):
progress is.

Speaker 9 (01:18:11):
That's exactly right.

Speaker 2 (01:18:12):
But this is not progress, I mean from your breakdown
and perspective of it. And it's not progress from the perspective
of the people that live in these neighborhoods.

Speaker 9 (01:18:18):
That's correct. The people that live in these neighborhoods do
not know what's going to happen with their property, their
property values, their neighborhood, whether the neighborhood's going to retain
the look and feel that they're used to or that
exists in the neighborhood. And it's an experiment that the
city has thrust on us. And it's just remarkable how

(01:18:40):
they have totally ignored the community, and they manipulated this
community engagement process to create this narrative, and a lot
of it's to present to the federal government how inclusive
they are and what great community engagement they have, and
it was all kind of bogus. It was all kind
of made up. So they have this narrative where they're

(01:19:02):
doing all this great stuff for the community when the
community is really opposed to what they're doing well.

Speaker 2 (01:19:07):
And when communities engaged in efforts like town hall meetings
and the citizen recut came out and said no, no, no,
we don't want this in our area. And here's all
the reasons why, and here's the multitude of people that
live in this neighborhood are fighting against it.

Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
They fell on deaf ears.

Speaker 9 (01:19:22):
I was actually shocked going to the Planning Commission meeting
where this was voted on by the Planning Commission. There
were hours, three or four hours of people coming to
the microphone and voicing their concerns about this proposal and
asking them to slow down and can't we take another
look at this? And when the last speaker spoke, the

(01:19:44):
council or the Planning Commission voted unanimous approval, and they
just didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:19:50):
They did without addressing their concerns, without saying, no, you're wrong,
and here let me explain why you're wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:19:56):
This can't happen. It's really going to go nothing.

Speaker 9 (01:19:58):
That's one of the big problems with this. There was
really no dialogue about the specific proposal itself.

Speaker 2 (01:20:05):
Well, and as we were talking off air, when I
think this is a legitimate concern that many people who
own a home in any given neighborhood, they're going to
change this own You're going to allow multiple family dwells,
They're going to allow these things to be subdivided into
rental properties.

Speaker 9 (01:20:19):
That's correct.

Speaker 2 (01:20:20):
Renters, you know, they're not. Renters are not bad people,
but they don't have any personal incentive to do maintenance
and upkeep. I mean if you have if you're renting
a property, it's not like you're going to upgrade the
hardwood floors. I mean you're you're just doing the landlord
to favor by upgrading the apartment and benefiting him. So
it doesn't get done. You're not likely to pick up
a paintbrush and paint the exterior of your house because

(01:20:42):
that's the landlord's job. That's correct, And if you have
a landlord who's maybe not that attentive, it never gets done.

Speaker 4 (01:20:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:20:49):
There, it's a big concern about out of town landlords.
That's some of these institutional investors that have come into town,
like Williamsburg and this other Oh he's not out of town,
but he's up north a little bit. They have a
lot of properties in the city and they don't really
take care of them.

Speaker 2 (01:21:08):
Now, you mentioned again before we started talking this morning, Vinebrook, Right,
they have in their leases with their renters that the
renters have the obligation to do all of the maintenance
and upkeep.

Speaker 9 (01:21:20):
Yes, I have that right, right. Wenbrook is one of
the biggest institutional investors in the country. They're a big
real estate Investment Trust. And in Hamilton County they owned
about three thousand homes. In Cincinnati they owned about one
thousand single family homes that they rent out. And there's
been years of complaints against Vinebrook. The city sued them

(01:21:43):
and reached the settlement in twenty twenty one, for example,
where Vinebrook had to pay six hundred thousand dollars in
fines and penalties that it hadn't paid or fees that
they hadn't paid. So two years down the road, in
January twenty three, the city sued them again, and this
time they're looking for placing Winebrook in receivership. They're charging

(01:22:06):
them with civil conspiracy. They want punitive damages, and they
go right down the line. And just in June they
decided to settle. But the issue, the big issue or
accomplishment I guess of the settlement is they did get
some agreement to change the leases. The leases had what
the city called seven different maintenance shifting clauses where the

(01:22:31):
tenant had to take care of the property exactly. And
you know, just for example, on pest control, Wenbrook would
take care of termites, but that's about it. If you
had roaches or bedbugs or rodents or whatever the case
may be. The tenants had to take care of that themselves.

(01:22:52):
So the city I think did reach some agreement with
Weinbrook to change those lease agreements for new leases. So
but that was it. There was no damages, no receivership,
nothing like that.

Speaker 2 (01:23:06):
And under and underconnected communities coming to a community near you.

Speaker 1 (01:23:11):
Yes, absolutely, that's what this comes down to.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
Now before we part company at Todd Zenzer and thank
you for coming in this morning. You mentioned you're doing
some coalitions and you're working with some groups of varied interests.
Everybody concerned about is there a way my listeners can
get in touch with this? I know I have a
lot of listeners within the greater Cincinnati area. They are
going to be impacted by this. But where can they turn?

(01:23:34):
Is there a website?

Speaker 9 (01:23:35):
There is a website Cbsinc. Dot org, cb since dot org.

Speaker 2 (01:23:43):
Since you with a Y or I with a Y, Cbsinc.
Dot org, all right, opportunity for you to get involved
as well, and maybe if enough constituents starts screaming out
loud about not being representative by representative government and get
something done along these lines. Todd Zenzer, God bless you
for staying up on it. I know it's a lot
of work, but I know how community you are to
Cincinnati and it is your home, and I know this

(01:24:06):
is an important issue for you, and you've always got
a form here on the fifty five Cassey Morning should
to bring people up to speed to what's going on.

Speaker 9 (01:24:10):
Thank you so much, Brian.

Speaker 2 (01:24:12):
My pleasure Todd's ends are is great. Heaven you and
seeing you. Christopher Smithan's up next. Talk about somebody else

it's Monday at seven thirty we get a special edition
a former Vice Maryland, City of Cincinnati Christopher Smith, Aman
and the Smith Event. Welcome Christopher. It's always great having
you on the show, whether it's Monday, Tuesday, or any
of the day of the week.

Speaker 3 (01:25:38):
Oh, thank you so much, Brian. And happy you know,
Labor Day weekend for you, your family and for the
rest of the country. I mean it's it's always a
great weekend for family and friends.

Speaker 1 (01:25:52):
So it is.

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
It's just I can't believe it's already September, Christopher, time
is just flying by, especially in an election year. It
has come out as a million miles an hour.

Speaker 3 (01:26:02):
It is. My heart just goes out to the six
hostages and I've been listening to your show this morning,
who were murdered as the IDF soldiers got close to them.
And it's my understanding that they were a few miles
away from the hostage that they got out a week ago,

(01:26:25):
and so as they closed in on that location, you know,
Hamas decided to assassinate those six hostages, two women and
one American, five obviously Israeli citizens, And you know, every
we's roll these stories, stories like this captivate. This captivated

(01:26:49):
me because of the brutality of it, and just to
think that they had been held in hell since October
the seventh, and always probably in their mind, the six
of them probably were sticking together, keeping each other, keeping
the hope, and then they just were brutally murdered. And

(01:27:10):
it should should have been a message for the world
about what we were actually dealing with and what the
world was dealing with. But instead we have protests in
New York of thousands and thousands and thousands of people
giving tribute to Hamas with flags yesterday, marching through the

(01:27:31):
streets of New York. If you're a New Yorker, you've
got to be embarrassed this morning because that's on the
backdrop of six hostages murdered. And how could the White
House just be so quiet on it but even come back,
come out and basically say that Benjamin Nitt Yahoo is

(01:27:52):
the one that's wrong. That's what President Biden said as
he returned to the White House from his two week vacation.
If you're the leader of Israel, you're thinking six people
just got assassinated. It's not time for your greatest ally
to get on TV and say you're not the one
pushing for peace. I was. I'm just blown away, Brian

(01:28:16):
Thomas by this disconnect from the White House based on
what I'm seeing, and I'm so far removed other than
watching it like you and the rest of the country.
But six people were murdered, and the White House is
saying this is Benjamin Nitt and Yahoo not wanting peace,
while tens of thousands or seven to ten thousand people

(01:28:38):
marching through the streets with flares and holding Hamas signs.
What do they think the Jewish community and all of
us out here who are fighting for humanity think this morning.

Speaker 2 (01:28:51):
A good question, Christopher, and I think it's really worth emphasizing,
you know, this isn't and not that it will be
justifiable if these were military combatants that they had being
held hosted IDF soldiers or intelligence folks from Israeli's intelligence operation.
These were civilians. These were young people. These were you know,
innocent kids going to a concert. They were elderly people,

(01:29:13):
people that really you know, had no crime and no
sin other than simply being Jews living in Israel, and
they killed them in cold blood. It's amazing, isn't it.
It's just absolutely it is amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:29:32):
But it's amazing. Brian Thomas and Harmas responded overnight, right
on the backdrop of the burial of the American who
was killed in those sticks. He's no greater, no less
than any of those lives. He's just is a dual
citizen and an American citizen who was murdered. But having

(01:29:56):
said that, they're holding a funeral and US comes out
with a statement that says we're going to continue to
kill hostages. So this is the backdrop. You've got the
President blaming your greatest ally in the Middle East, which
I am sure we are sharing great intelligence about our

(01:30:19):
own interests. Media. It's not like the people that they're
fighting love us, meaning they would like to come here
and hurt Americans on our soil. So we're probably constantly
using and interfacing with our greatest ally, Israel in the
Middle East to figure out our own interests. And the

(01:30:39):
President arrives from a two week vacation where he's being
shown on the beach kicking it, chilling out on the
backdrop of six hostages. He says, hey, Benjamin Nittyaho really
doesn't want peace and harms feeds off of that. I
want the listeners to understand they feed off of that,

(01:31:00):
and they come out with the pressure release that is,
we now are changing our director. If the IDF gets
close to any hostage, we will assassinate them. How in
the world do you negotiate peace in the backdrop of
that madness, Brian Thomas, I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:31:18):
Think that's a question that could be answered, to be
quite honest with you. I'll ponder at though over the
break and we'll see what else we got to talk about.
When we come back with Christopher Smithland seven thirty eight
right now with you, bive karsee talking.

Better day late than never, Christopher's SMITHIMU with this Smith event, Uh,
you move away from the heady topic of the murder
of the Israeli hostages. What else is on your mind
today for the Smith event?

Speaker 3 (01:32:32):
Christopher, Well, I want to just say that these states
that are in play, Georgia, Pennsylvania, you know, Michigan, Wisconsin. Right,
you see these states that are in play. Now here's
here's some of the reality of it. Lake and Riley
really happened. That was real, And I believe that the

(01:32:54):
polling isn't capturing some of this interest. Meaning I just
can't see Georgia. I realized it was ten thousand votes
give or take a few hundred Brian Thomas in the
last election, but I just can't see Georgia not breaking
towards the Republican Party based on what happened just in

(01:33:15):
that one case. Immigration is a very big issue. It's
not a little issue. It's a very big issue. And
what we just saw happen in Colorado, which I don't
know if people, you know, people were busy over the
holidays watching these armed Venezuelan immigrants take over an apartment
or two with these weapons. This is scary stuff. That's

(01:33:39):
happening in our country, and I just don't believe that, Brian,
the electorate is capturing it. Early voting is already going
to start in September, probably by the time I come
back on early voting will start in some parts of
the country. Here in Ohio, we're October the seventh, early
voting starts. So when you said the year was going
by a really fast, Brian Thomas, I'll say, oh, my goodness,

(01:34:02):
people are going to start voting. Here's what's bothering my mind.
We still don't have the clear public policy positions of
the Democratic ticket, and so I'm trying to figure out
on their website. I'm trying to figure out by listening
to them, what do they plan to do to move

(01:34:22):
the country forward. And I'm not making this up to
the public that this is not a campaign speech for
one or the other. I'm trying to figure out, how
do I know what the Democratic presidential candidates stand for
if they don't put it on their website, they don't

(01:34:42):
provide interviews to the media, they don't sit down and
answer questions. Not just from what we would say home
field advantage, They're really sitting down and allowing the country
to vet their public policy positions. I've never seen it
before in my life, Brian Thomas.

Speaker 2 (01:35:00):
I have never before Joe Biden in COVID. But at
least he could say was COVID that was keeping him
locked up in the basement. And of course COVID serve
as the foundation to radically change without going through the
appropriate legislative process. How we all vote, leading to raised
eyebrows and questioning the integrity of the election. But those
years are behind us, and here we find ourselves four

(01:35:20):
years later, and Kamala Harris is working off the same playbook,
and let's face it, it looks like she's getting away
from it with it. Christopher, as crazy as it is,
you know, I mean, I'm appalled, and I would like
to think and I know how I am. I would
be equally critical if a Republican was doing.

Speaker 3 (01:35:39):
This thing one hundred percent. One hundred percent, Brian Thomas.
This is about the presidency of the United States of America.
And if you are an independent like me, if you're
a Democrat or a Republican or a libertarian, what you
just said is true. We all should be outraged that

(01:36:03):
that ticket hasn't sat down with a reporter that will
ask them tough questions. What is your position on the border,
you know, what is your position on fracking, why has
it changed? What is your position on the Alaska pipeline.
We want to understand that because if you're like me,

(01:36:24):
You're like, hey, I don't want my gas prices to
go to ten dollars a gallon. How do I make
sure that doesn't happen. I've got to explore oil in
the United States of America, and if I'm in Pennsylvania,
I really want to know about fracking, and I want
to know about the exploration of oil there. If I'm
a Pennsylvania voter, I'm not going to take the Governor

(01:36:46):
Shapiro's position that we'll just wait and see, right, Just
trust me, she really is for these things. She hasn't
said it, Brian Thomas, we have to know what her
positions are. And I've just never seen journalists like this
that are saying, hey man, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, CNN. Everybody's

(01:37:06):
just saying it's okay, wait and see, we'll figure it
out on November the fifth, or we'll figure it out
after the election. It just doesn't make sense to Brian Thomas.

Speaker 2 (01:37:15):
It does not, and the American people deserve to know.
But what do we know, Christopher. We know what she
ran on in twenty nineteen when she was trying to
get the Democratic nominee to be president of the United
States of America. She ran specifically on basically getting rid
of ice, calling it the Klan, saying I'm going to
end fracking period, unequivocal, it is going to end. So

(01:37:39):
she's on the record back then, she's really way off
the record. Now we hear through her surrogate said no, no, no,
she changed her mind on literally everything. I mean, go
up and down the line, immigration, fracking, at energy policy.
I mean, we've got our flip flopping all over the
place on everything because she's on the wrong side of
the issues, at least in so far as where the

(01:38:00):
American people believe we should be on those issues. So
until you hear it from her mouth directly. But you know, Nigel, Christopher,
does anybody trust the politician? They campaign on stuff all
the time, They say what they want and what they
are running on all the time, and rarely do they
do they deliver. She's not even offering what she claims
she's going to be running on.

Speaker 3 (01:38:20):
Correct, And I'm saying if you're listening to you and
I and what we're saying, we're saying the truth. Right now.
She hasn't given us her platform. That is not good
for our country. We deserve to know and why she
won't sit down and have those conversations. We all should
be very suspicious about Brian Thomas. And all I'll say is,

(01:38:43):
how can you be an early voter and not know this.
We have a debate on September tenth. I hope we'll
learn more about what her positions are, maybe why they've
changed because of that debate that will come up between
the presidential candidates. But I can tell you that you
deserve to know. And you know this interview that happened

(01:39:03):
with CNN didn't satisfy that right. These were leading questions
home team advantage and they really weren't vetting it. The
last thing I want to talk about, I'm sitting outside
seat in high school. I don't mind telling people where
my baby goes to school. It's a great Catholic girls
high school on the west side of town, and the

(01:39:24):
families there and the teaching staff. They've done a beautiful
job with all the girls. But specifically my daughter. But
in this context, as I said, I'm an African American
Catholic family, and so I'm trying to figure out what's
the debate around abortion. Right. I typically don't touch on it,
but I'm asking Catholics out there, Okay, what are you

(01:39:45):
talking about? If you can't come to the table and
say killing a baby at nine months is wrong, right,
how do you then take communion?

Speaker 10 (01:39:54):
Like?

Speaker 3 (01:39:55):
What do you stand for in your faith? I meaning,
at some point the church has to stand up for
what's right. The Church doesn't lay in bed with the
rest of the world. Whether you're a Baptist, whether you're
a Catholic, right, whether you're a Protestant, you're not supposed
to be laying in bed with the rest of the world.

(01:40:16):
That's what the church does. It stands out and says
we're the beacon of hope. I'm unclear, right, not talking
about a woman's body. I'm talking about a campaign that
says I've been endorsed by planned parenthood and that a
baby being killed at nine months is okay. That drives

(01:40:36):
me crazy, and I'm trying to figure out why the
Catholic Church isn't taking a stronger position. Forget who's running
for often, but there's a lot on the line when
we start talking about abortion and what I hear President
Trump saying over the former President Trump saying over the
over the weekend that we have both we have these
two extremes, right being in cases of rape and case

(01:41:00):
of incests and life of the mother. These are things
that he's been talking about. But at the end of
the day, nine months there is your at the Democratic Convention.

Speaker 2 (01:41:10):
Yes, brother, you know both of my children born in
eight months. Both of them were healthy and ready to
hit the ground running. Christopher Smithman, God bless you and
how passionate you are. I wish we had more time.
We'll talk against Sorry, take care it seven fifty fifty

(01:41:51):
John Nolty, it's a pleasure to have you on the
fifty five Carse Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (01:41:55):
Thanks for having me.

Speaker 3 (01:41:56):
It's good to be here.

Speaker 1 (01:41:57):
Let us talk about it.

Speaker 2 (01:41:58):
And I don't understand really where Kamala Harris was coming,
ultimately ending up looking as though she's criticizing gold Star families.
Then was the thirteen US servicemen who were killed during
the Biden administration's botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. Donald Trump, of
course was at Arlington Seminary at cemetery. He has met
with them, he has showed compassion toward them in their words,

(01:42:19):
not mine, But they really went full on attacking Kamala
Harris for her words. What's your take on this? And
why did she even bother stepping in it? I guess
I have to ask out of the gate.

Speaker 10 (01:42:33):
She definitely was criticizing them. I mean, at best, she
was accusing them being pawns, you know, being tokens in
a political ad. At worst, she was accusing them of
openly participating in a political ad. It was a despicable
act on her part. As far as why she did it,

(01:42:54):
I think her campaign. I think she's running a terrible campaign.
I know this goes against the conventional with him. I'm
not saying she's going to lose. I'm not saying Trump's
going to win, but she's running a terrible political campaign.
And now, rather than what the campaign had been about,
which was joy, now she's looking at her internal polling.

(01:43:16):
She's seeing that she's peaked because she's getting a real
bump out of her convention that the race is statistically tied.
And I think that. I think that attack on the
gold Star Families was an act of desperation. It was
a way to take off her disastrous interview going into
the Sunday shows, take the focus off her disastrous CNN

(01:43:38):
interview and try to put it back on Trump. But
she heard she damaged herself. It was It was a
big mistake, just like bringing Tim Wallas on the CNN
interview was a big mistake. And now I hear all
she's going to do in the debate next week is attack, attack,
attack Trump, and I think that's going to be a
big mistake too. She just she has no vision she
has no ideas where to take the country. She cannot

(01:44:00):
run on her record because her record is decades as
a radical San Francisco leftist, and she can't explain why
she's changing her positions. So she's in a very tough spot.
But again, I'm not saying she's gonna lose. But it's
not a good campaign right now.

Speaker 2 (01:44:18):
No, But I mean, I guess the elephant in the
room is that she's well. With the exception of the
wonderful outlets like Breitbart, who are pointing out this fact,
she's getting away with it. She's running a Joe Biden
campaign during COVID when we don't have COVID anymore. She's
being quiet. She has a like you point out over

(01:44:38):
and over again. You can look at her record. Look
at what she ran on when she was trying to
become president of the United States of America. She wanted
a banfracking, she won a Medicare for all. I means
she's on the record as being in favor of those
types of programs and policies. And now she's trying to duck, dip, dodge, dive,
and duck because that's not where America is. And yet
she doesn't say it herself, she has gets say it

(01:45:00):
for so we don't even know. I mean, politicians lie
all the time. I know you know that, John, but
I mean they usually have a policy and a platform
they at least purport to run on.

Speaker 10 (01:45:11):
The difference between her and Biden is that Biden was
a pretty good politician, and Biden could run on a
record as a moderate and everybody knew him, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:45:21):
If you've been around, he's featuring around forever.

Speaker 10 (01:45:24):
So with it's going to be up to up to
Trump and now that now that he's found his footing
to prosecute the case, and I think he's prosecuting the
case very well. So right now, the media, the American
media is cut in half. You know, left wingers watch ABC, NBC, CNN,

(01:45:45):
they read the Washington Post, and then we read Breitbart
and and and and and things like that. And then
you have the independents who are going to decide the election,
and I think they're more interested in all.

Speaker 3 (01:45:57):
To me.

Speaker 10 (01:45:57):
The other thing that Trump's doing, I think the break
through to get over the wall of the corporate media,
the fake media.

Speaker 3 (01:46:04):
Is he's doing these.

Speaker 10 (01:46:07):
Podcasts and I think that's brilliant and in twenty sixteen.
What Trump did brilliantly is that he bombarded local media.
He would sit down with Channel fifty eight in Milwaukee
and Channel twenty seven in Detroit. And now he's sitting
down with these podcasters who have access to millions of listeners, yes,

(01:46:28):
who have much better ratings than CNN or much more
subscribers than the Washington Post. And he's reaching a whole
new group of people that way, and he's sitting down
for interviews that are an hour long and just talking.
And that's Kamala Harris does not have those political skills,
and that's another handicap she has.

Speaker 2 (01:46:47):
That's a huge handicap for her. And that's one of
the reasons why I think she's going to try to
play out this hide strategy as long as she possibly
can get away with it, which I suppose will be
up to the moment of the debate with Donald Trump.
What do you foresee after that, though, John, I mean,
is she going to go back to hiding? Is she
going to do interviews? Because you got one thing that's
a great point you made about the podcast, and the
other thing about Trump is he will sit down with

(01:47:09):
really anybody. I mean he'll sit down with you know,
the opposition, he'll see he'll throw themselves into the lions
dennerver a, CNN or MSNBC. I mean, he'll go to
the what was that, the the Black Convention of what
was it, thet the journalist Black Journalists, and you know
that's not a friendly group of folks normally for any Republican.

(01:47:30):
But there he was. Kamala Harris nowhere to be found.
She was attending some sort of sorority function whatever. But
he regularly does this, and I think it's important for
Trump to do that because he's got a lot of
people to convince. But you know, he can make inroads
into some of the communities and some of the the
even Democrats who are fearful of Kamala Harris left leaning

(01:47:50):
bent as she has demonstrated over the years, and who
are not Alexandricazia Cortes wing party members. They're more centrists
or you know, more neutral.

Speaker 10 (01:48:01):
Yeah, and that's what a real politician does. Of Bill
Clinton or Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan. They want to talk
to the media. They want that extemporaneous situation where they
can go up to a microphone and make a point
and because Kamala's she's such a bad politician, she knows

(01:48:22):
that's your weakness. So you asked, what is she going
to do after the debate. If the hiding strategy works,
if she can keep the Rays tied and within the
margin of cheat, then she's going to remain in hiding.
The biggest fear I think right now in that campaign
is that she starts to lose ground and all of

(01:48:44):
a sudden Trump is up a point or two nationally,
and all of a sudden Trump is up two or
three points in enough swing states to win the election.

Speaker 3 (01:48:52):
Then what do you do.

Speaker 10 (01:48:53):
Then she's going to have to do interviews because whatever
she's been doing up till then isn't working. And once
she has to do interviews, that's when the doom spiral
could begin, because she's just going to get worse and
worse and worse. Because if you look at this, I
honestly expected her to sit down with CNN last week
and knock it out of the park. I was shocked

(01:49:15):
at how bad that was because I thought, to myself,
she's had six weeks to prepare, she's got Team Obama
behind her, She's sitting down with the most left wing, corrupt,
friendly journalist, so called journalist and outlet that she can,
she is going to knock this out of the park.
How can she not? But she couldn't because she wills

(01:49:38):
under pressure. So if it looks like Trump's gonna win,
She's gonna have no choice, and that's going to be
very interesting to see what happens. But if she can
keep the race tied or within the margin of cheat,
then I think she's going to continue the hide strategy,
and the media, of course will let.

Speaker 1 (01:49:53):
Her, Yes they will.

Speaker 2 (01:49:54):
And I think people's eyes are getting open by how
biased the media is. I mean, you and I and me.
I've been talking about bias media for years and years
and years till we're blue in the face. But I
just get this sense, like, for example, some of the
like even the New York Times will have these more
you know, questioning the narratives of the Democrat Party sort

(01:50:16):
of a CNN will do the same thing. They'll be
critical of Kamala Harris's campaign or the Biden administration, and
you're like, wow, that's not I'm not used to hearing that.
It's almost as if on some level they're trying to
create some they're trying to rehabilitate themselves in some way
by appearing at least from time to time to be
slightly more politically neutral than they are. Do you get

(01:50:38):
a sense of that at all.

Speaker 10 (01:50:39):
John, Well, what they'll do is they'll be intellectually honest
once every few months, and then when the complaints come in,
they'll point to that moment of intellectual honesty. But the
rest of the three months, the five thousand other stories
they do during the three months are all geared towards
helping the Democrat Party. And so is that piece you're

(01:51:02):
talking about. They'll run a piece that's intellectually honest. So
why do they do that even though that piece itself
might be critical of the Democrat Party and the overall
scheme of things that helps the Democrat Party because it
allows an organ that helps the Democrat Party to pretend
that it's objective.

Speaker 1 (01:51:21):
True.

Speaker 10 (01:51:21):
So, but everything the media do is to help the
Democrat Party, and that's how you have to look at
it through that lens.

Speaker 2 (01:51:28):
But the one thing that is I think somewhat beneficial
to anybody who's has at least a modicum of an
open mind on any given issue you've spoke of sort
of the echo chamber that we tend to live in.
You know, yes, I do visit Brightbart site every day.
But then again, I'm also looking at you know, the
Hill and Politico and all the other more leftling including

(01:51:51):
you know, outlets like the New York Times. So I'm
seeing all of it. But if you live in that
echo chamber, and yeah, all of a sudden, CNN or
mscnbcre York Times does run a piece it's critical of
some aspect of the administration, They're at least reaching the
echo chamber voices who wouldn't normally hear it. So I
kind of you at least a plus on some level.

Speaker 10 (01:52:12):
Yeah, I see what you're saying. That makes sense, But
I think that it's just so overwhelmed by the rest
that people just forget.

Speaker 1 (01:52:19):
It, no question about that. I guess.

Speaker 2 (01:52:23):
They haven't gone that far to rehabilitate themselves. John Milton,
real quick here, I just wanted to get your insights
to your comments, random thoughts whatever on the RFK Junior factor.
Obviously he's given up on his campaign and supporting Donald Trump.
Not sure what that means in terms of the Trump administration,
But how do you see this impacting the race because

(01:52:44):
he is a very outspoken guy and on some pretty
important issues that were really causing a lot of folks
to sort of follow his campaign. I mean, he was
polling around five percent, maybe six percent in some polls.

Speaker 10 (01:52:57):
It's good because it's one of those rarest circumstances. Usually
the other side, the left co opts our guys, right,
you know, like Joe Scarborough or David French or any of.

Speaker 4 (01:53:11):
Those losers.

Speaker 10 (01:53:12):
They co opt our guys, and our guys become weapons
against our side, and they they claim to still be conservative.
And this is a situation where Trump, who's a totally
unique politician, has co opted one of their guys. And
not just one of their guys, but he's really the
biggest living star in the Kennedy family right now, and

(01:53:33):
he has been for a long time, probably since Teddy died,
and now he's trashing the Democrat Party. He's our Joe Scarborough,
He's our David French.

Speaker 3 (01:53:44):
Now do I believe him?

Speaker 10 (01:53:45):
No, I think he's a mercenary. He just wants he
just wants to, you know, do something. He wants to
improve his status, and he's decided to hook up with Mega.

Speaker 1 (01:53:54):
It's awesome.

Speaker 10 (01:53:55):
It's awesome that we got. We got a Kennedy, we
got the biggest living star in the Kendeddate family crashing
the Democrat Party. I don't care why he's doing it.
He's doing it, and that's fantastic, and I don't think
it does anything but help us well.

Speaker 2 (01:54:10):
And you know, the one thing he is unbelievably outspoken on.
He was just at it over the weekend, this reckoning
on immoral, homicidal, criminal behavior, which is what he called
fauci in the vaccine zealots. I know that that has
hit a nerve with a lot of my listeners. With
the lockdowns, and then you've got a Walls, who was
one of the king of lockdowns. It's a very stark

(01:54:32):
contrast freedom versus what he was all about and our
miserable experience during COVID. There's RFK Junior out there talking
about it all the time. So whether or not you
think the vaccines are good or bad, he at least
is keeping that alive and well in terms of a
policy point.

Speaker 10 (01:54:47):
Yeah, and he's not wrong about everything. I mean, but
he was a diehard Democrat ninety days ago, you know,
one hundred and twenty days ago. He was a diehard Democrat,
but he's not wrong about everything. He's certainly not wrong
about the lock downs and all that other stuff. So
you know, he's going to focus on what he agrees
with us, and he's not going to focus on the

(01:55:08):
things that he doesn't agree with us, and he's going
to trash the Democrat Party and that's just fantastic, tell
you what.

Speaker 2 (01:55:14):
It is always a pleasure talking with folks from Breitberg
get the Inside Scoop every Tuesday. Of course I feel
that way about you, John Nulty, Senior writer, will continue
to read what you write. Keep up the great work,
and I'll look forward to another edition next Tuesday.

Speaker 1 (01:55:26):
At eight o five. Thanks Matt Thaks sharving me on
always a pleasure, Always a pleasure.

Speaker 2 (01:55:31):
Coming up at eight twenty year pit you about kiss
the talk station coming up on the Inside Scoop with
Daniel Davis at the bottom of the hour. Hopefully we'll
get that one worked out since Joe's not here, trying
to figure out a different way to get that as
a communication established. I'm sure it'll work, But keep your
fingers crossed for me, would you? And get in touch
with the four Hey thirty one on a Tuesday, and
Happy Tuesday to you regular listeners. Know it's time for

(01:55:52):
that alliterative segment, THEE Daniel Davis Deep Die with retired
Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis talking usually about uh well, war, pestilence, famine,
global issues, glory. Daniel Davis, my friend, it's always great scene.
I'm glad we're able to work out the communication today
since Joe's on vacation. Usually that spells disaster for me
now because Sean doesn't do a good job. It's just

(01:56:14):
that something always ends up going wrong when Joe's gone.

Speaker 1 (01:56:16):
But we're good. I can see it's coming in great
Welcome back.

Speaker 11 (01:56:19):
My friend Greg, Greg, glad we worked it out.

Speaker 1 (01:56:22):
Glad to be here.

Speaker 2 (01:56:23):
I am too, and I did not get a topic,
so I kind of have a feeling. I know where
you want to go today, Daniel, But let's hit the
ground running. Where do you want to go today, Daniel.

Speaker 11 (01:56:33):
Well, there's been some big developments overnight in the Russia
Ukraine War where a military college was hit in Poltava,
which is kind of in central Ukraine. And it was
really a combination of bad timing bad luck for the
Ukraine side because it was a military college for electronic

(01:56:54):
warfare experts, and for some reason they all gathered in
one place.

Speaker 1 (01:56:58):
It was a large number of them.

Speaker 11 (01:57:00):
And Russia hit it with a Kinzel missile, long range missile,
and apparently somewhere between fifteen depending on which reports, and
one hundred have been killed and another two hundred have
been wounded. And of course Zelensky is just furious about it.
And then he's increasing that the emphatic request, if not
demands from the White House that he'd be given permission

(01:57:21):
to fire long range US missiles anywhere in Russia. And well,
certainly I understand his position. I mean, he just lost
a large number of people who were training of leaders especially,
But look, we got to look at it from American
national perspective, and it doesn't do us any good. It
doesn't even do him any good for the war effort.
To allow him to strike targets deeper in Russia. It

(01:57:44):
would be a punitive situation. It would certainly hurt Russia,
but it would probably also increase the chance that we
get drawn into the war, and it won't change the
dynamics on the ground for Ukraine side. Nothing is going
to do that at this point, right and we have
been over that so many times. This whole idea of
you know, moving into Russian endeavoring to take over land
and hold it just seems like an exercise in futility

(01:58:09):
when you're not even in your own home country holding
ground within your own home country. So I'm I'm perplexed
by it from a military strategy point, But that's why
we've got you, Daniel. But isn't it an intelligence failure
or rather a stupid idea to put all these important
people in one place?

Speaker 1 (01:58:26):
I mean it is.

Speaker 11 (01:58:28):
In fact, the Ukraine media itself is quite unhappy about
that this morning, and they're taking the President's office to
task and they're saying, why did y'all do that when
everyone knows that you have to disperse everyone, and especially
on a fixed target like that, a known location where
where you know people are being trained up to go
to war to kill Russians. It stands to reason that

(01:58:49):
that's going to be a potential target into why you
would want to mask people together. And both sides have
periodically done this throughout the war, where for some reason
they mass troops and then the other side finds out
and then you know, kills the other one. In large
numbers with a single missile. So it's it's a it
was a definite failure. And we don't know the circumstances
right now. We don't know why they got together, why

(01:59:10):
they were all in one physical location, but it was
a pretty lethal shot.

Speaker 4 (01:59:15):
Well.

Speaker 2 (01:59:15):
And the other component of this is and I just
saw it brought up again, and I know the nuclear
weapons and nuclear bombs. Of course Russia has got a
lot of them now that they have been invaded. Doesn't
that provide some sort of maybe justification for them to
use it as a defensive weapon, which they always kept
you know, we're never going to use it for offensive purposes,

(01:59:36):
but hell, we just got invaded. Well listen, there's there's
more to that than than you even you may think.
I mean, that's just kind of logically on the surface
of it. But since the Ukraine has invaded into the
course region and physically occupied Russian territory.

Speaker 1 (01:59:52):
Uh, the the.

Speaker 11 (01:59:55):
Minister for Minister Lavrov and his deputy Rubkov both came
out emphatically and said we are now updating our nuclear doctrine.
And then Lavra went so far as to say, America,
if this ends up getting into a war, if we
get sucked in. Don't think that this is just going
to be within Europe. Don't think that your oceans will
protect you.

Speaker 4 (02:00:14):
They won't.

Speaker 11 (02:00:15):
That is the most direct warning to the United States
that I think Russia has ever given, maybe all the
way back to the nineteen sixty two nuclear crisis.

Speaker 2 (02:00:22):
That is frightening stuff. And I suppose the other component
of this is given the scope and breadth of sizes
of nuclear weapons. I remember, going back to the eighties,
backpack nukes were a new thing, and they were small
and a guy could carry one literally on his back.
But then again, they didn't do something the size of
Hiroshima or Nagasaki in terms of damage, but they were

(02:00:45):
very effective destructive mechanisms that could be used far more strategically.
Now I can only imagine how they've developed since those
old days.

Speaker 1 (02:00:53):
Well a great point.

Speaker 11 (02:00:55):
As a matter of fact, I have just recently received
information that apparently Russia has new categories of even smaller
tactical nuclear weapons than even the other ones that they
have had, which were somewhere around eighteen kilotons, which is
pretty sizeable. Apparently now they have some smaller artillery delivered
ones that are about one kiloton, so it's not as

(02:01:17):
big as Herosia monogaus like I think those were around
ten kilotons. Perhaps some awful on that, but I know
that relatively speaking, it's a small payload, but it's an
enormous tactical explosion at the point of impact.

Speaker 1 (02:01:30):
And the problem with.

Speaker 11 (02:01:31):
This is that having these smaller yields lowers the threshold
for using them, because it allows the person who's firing
to say, well, this probably won't be a big deal.
And listen, anytime you cross the nuclear threshold, everything bad
becomes possible.

Speaker 1 (02:01:47):
And the last thing.

Speaker 11 (02:01:48):
We want to do is to give Russia the feeling
that the whole West is piling in on them, or
that NATO may come in on them, and give them
any kind of incentive or motivation at all to use
these tactical nuclear weapons, because I once that genie is
out of that bottle, I mean, it's total virgin territory.
Nobody knows what would happen next, because we've never had

(02:02:09):
this in the history of the world where multiple nuclear
powers are potentially engaged with each other.

Speaker 2 (02:02:15):
Yeah, and it's just good, I mean, and soon enough,
I mean it's one of those things. Soon enough more
countries are going to have the capabilities. I mean, this
is just the natural order of things. You know, drones
that was exclusively ours and maybe the Chinese and Rushes
for a while. Everybody's got drones. I went to a
fireworks display on Sunday night, thousands of commercial drones flying
in synchronization, like you can't imagine. I'm staring at with

(02:02:38):
my mouth open, not only because it was a neat
thing to behold, but I'm thinking, listen, I'm a civilian.
If I have a check, I can hire that company
to do that kind of thing for me. Imagine what
the military capabilities are. Those are just flying light bulbs.
The military have you know, rockets and arms and have
you know the C four or whatever they used to
explode things. How can you possibly defend against thousands of

(02:03:03):
them simultaneously?

Speaker 1 (02:03:05):
Well, now there.

Speaker 11 (02:03:06):
Are some ways, but with In fact, Russia's electronic warfare
capabilities have been expanding dramatically in this calendar year as
opposed to last.

Speaker 1 (02:03:13):
Year or last year.

Speaker 11 (02:03:15):
By report I saw recently about forty percent of Ukraine's
drones were successful, sixty percent were knocked down, which is
not a bad percentagees It actually pretty good because drones
are so cheap.

Speaker 1 (02:03:26):
This year, ten percent are effective.

Speaker 11 (02:03:29):
Ninety percent are getting interdicted with electronic warfare capabilities from
the Russian side. But you know, when you're talking hundreds
of thousands of them, that's still not a small.

Speaker 1 (02:03:38):
Number to get through.

Speaker 11 (02:03:39):
That's just how it works now. But to your point,
I saw just three days ago video evidence of a
new capability on the Ukraine side, which it's only a
matter of time before it gets in on the Russian side.
Is they had this drone that was flying over with
a bucket underneath it of thermot and if people aren't aware,
that's military great explosives, and when it mixes with the air,
it just ignites and you can't put it out. And

(02:04:01):
it was just flying over this tree line and then
dropping it out in it, and it looked like pouring
molten lava onto the ground, delivered by drums. So everything
underneath it was either burned or suffocated. And so that's
the first time I've seen that at all on the battlefield,
and it won't be long before we probably see more
of that.

Speaker 1 (02:04:18):
So the destructive power keeps.

Speaker 2 (02:04:20):
Growing, kind of like a modern version of a palm
or at least the modern delivery system of it exactly right.
That is exis endpoint delivery, pinpoint delivery. And it just
keeps getting I mean, the technology just keeps getting better
and better and cheaper and cheaper. Scary stuff. Daniel Davis. Wow, okay, uh,
somehow I don't feel better after having talked to you,
except for the fact this is information we all need

(02:04:41):
to know. We've got to have some sort of clear
perspective on the landscape there and any.

Speaker 3 (02:04:46):
You know it is.

Speaker 11 (02:04:47):
But Brian, this this underscores why we need to get
this war over.

Speaker 1 (02:04:50):
We need to. We need to for our interest.

Speaker 11 (02:04:53):
Why play around with tactical nuclear weapons or any possibility
of that.

Speaker 1 (02:04:57):
We need to get the war over. Amen.

Speaker 2 (02:04:59):
Daniel Dave was steep dive. Search for them online you'll
find and wherever you go, just Daniel Davis Deep Dive.
You get it on Facebook his podcast until next week.

Speaker 1 (02:05:06):
My friend. Always a pleasure talking.

Speaker 11 (02:05:08):
With you, Always a pleasure to me.

Speaker 2 (02:05:09):
Thank you very Take care, sir. Eight forty coming up
with d forty one. If if you five care, ceedy talk
station and a positive word and Mike, wouldn't you hey
forty nine if you have care ceed talk station. It
is the time to ask the expert and expert that
you are mostly surely one kind of want to talk to.
Welcome back to the fifty five Carse Morning Show from
cover Sincy John Rouhlman, John, my friend, was great seating

(02:05:31):
at the fireworks on Sunday and meeting your beautiful wife.

Speaker 12 (02:05:35):
Oh, I appreciate it, Brian, the pleasure meeting your wife
as well.

Speaker 2 (02:05:38):
Yeah, we had a real nice time hanging out with you,
and of course you're probably sick of me by now.
We get to talk a lot. We do the Sunday
Program talking about your business and what you're doing for
folks that need a better path for medical insurance, getting
them better medical coverage with dollar one coverage in many
cases for less money. I mean, it's just like I
always say, all you need to do is call and

(02:05:59):
find out out if John or any member of his
team right, they don't need to talk with you specifically,
if they can better your situation because you're saving people
all kinds of money. You want to mention what's the
deadline that's coming up for those who might not listen
to the Sunday program that you and I do about that?
You need to sit down and talk with one of
your team about Medicare.

Speaker 12 (02:06:22):
Yeah, that's a big thing here right now, especially for
all your listeners. If you're on Medicare over sixty five,
this absolutely affects every single one of you. There's major changes.
Look for that annual notice of change that you'll be
getting in the mail. There's a big prescription change here
for twenty twenty five. So it's very imperative that you

(02:06:42):
read over that letter that you're receiving because it's going
to affect your plans. And you know, what we're doing
right now for all of your listeners is you know,
reach out to us now. You can give us a
call and we'll vildly schedule you here for October fifteenth,
and beyond that way you can go over what your
new options can really look like, because like I said,
all the plans are going to be affected for the
twenty twenty five new plan.

Speaker 2 (02:07:04):
Stay and this consultation and meet with them for free.
I mean, it's there's an obligation for my listeners, and
you're really you're keeping them out of a potential a
real problem that if they didn't get ahead of this,
they can be stuck in a situation where I mean
they might not be ensured, right, Yeah.

Speaker 12 (02:07:22):
Because as we've talked about on our mon on our
Sunday shows, is you know, the big changes could drastically
affect your plans. You know, we don't even know all
the changes that are going to happen yet because all
the characters haven't really told us everything that's going to
be in store. And if you're on a Medicare advantage plan,
that could actually affect the doctors that you're currently seeing.

(02:07:43):
They might be dropped by your current plan. Maybe some
of the prescriptions that you're on may not be covered.
And that's why it's just so imperative that you have
a meeting with us here once we have all that
information in hand, so that way we can literally sit
down and make sure that you're on the right plan, because,
like you mentioned, Brian, in that event that you don't
make a change or don't look at that notice, you

(02:08:03):
might be without your primary care doctor in twenty twenty five,
or or that prescription that's so imperative that you keep
filling every month might not be a covered drug on
your plan. So that's why it is so important to
make sure you know you are set up properly here
in October for that twenty twenty five deadline.

Speaker 2 (02:08:20):
Well, and you know the craziest thing about this is,
and you and I have talked about this before in
the show, but you know the idea that open rolling
period is fast approaching, and you don't even have the
details yet from what the federal government is going to do.
You don't even have the changes. Those get rolled out shortly.
You get to have to absorb them, evaluate them, and
understand them. So you can then sit out with your

(02:08:41):
clients or the listeners right now are going, I didn't
know about this and explain it to them.

Speaker 12 (02:08:47):
Yeah, I mean it's it's crazy and the government makes
a big change like this. I mean, they don't even
tell us everything right away. So you know, he said,
we're scrambling to get up to date on everything that's
going to be coming here down the pipe. And you know,
like I said, we'll have all that answers you have.
My entire team will be ready for all of our
clients and those that are calling in to make sure
we're well versed in exactly what the new outlook's going

(02:09:10):
to be for twenty twenty five. So that way we
when you sit down with us. We will have those
answers in front of us. Even though it might be
just I know it should be a difficult process for
them to do it on their own, without question, a
very difficult process, and I think it's intentionally complicated.

Speaker 2 (02:09:24):
Anyhow, don't sit on your laurels and don't think everything's
just going to be status quo. Please get in touch
with John and the team. You can talk with any
one of them. It's five one three eight hundred call
five one three eight hundred two two five five. You
can reach out to them online at coversinc dot com
to do the same thing. And it's for people with
other medical insurance. There is no open rollment period working
with you guys, you're you and your team. So someone's

(02:09:47):
insured through their employer right now. This is where you
know most of the benefits you provided people show up,
which is you know they're out of pocket nine thousand
dollars before the insurance kicks in. People can't afford to
buy the insurance. You got to pay monthly premium, then
pull out nine grand from their pocket. You can come
up with a package of policies working with these hundreds
of insurance companies to get people dollar one coverage to

(02:10:07):
get them affordable insurance. It actually gives them value and
that you know, if especially if they're working through a group,
you work with a group to get everybody insured, that
that helps with employee retention among other things.

Speaker 12 (02:10:20):
Well, absolutely, Brian, I mean, and you hit the nail
on the head there. You know, the out of pocket
expenses right now and help insurance are obscene. You know,
we call it in our realm of my business. You know,
prohibitive costs, right, I mean, you start questioning, hey.

Speaker 3 (02:10:35):
Should I go get this done?

Speaker 12 (02:10:36):
Or should I even go get the doctor? Because I
know when you're paying all kinds of money out of
pocket and and the premium that I'm paying just to
use this plan, and that's a broken system. You know,
when we meet with your listeners and you know, any
of our clients, you know our goal is to not
only minimize your monthly costs, but look at all those
hidden costs, those out of pockets, those deductibles, those copays,

(02:10:57):
and you know what we can do to minimize that
exposure so that when you go in and have to
go get a procedure done, you're not looking at a
nine thousand dollars bill in the back end. I mean,
that's just crazy, and we don't want you to make
a decision based upon your health because of the financial
obligation you have.

Speaker 3 (02:11:13):
On the back end.

Speaker 2 (02:11:14):
John and his team are absolutely brilliant when it comes
to knowing exactly what you need. I mean you individually,
your circumstance is different now than it was ten years ago,
or maybe we'll be fifteen years from now. They take
that all into consideration. Look all, what the best possible path,
the best medical coverage at the lowest dollar amount. John Roman,
thank you so much. I've got so many listeners to

(02:11:35):
get in touch on the every single week, Like.

Speaker 4 (02:11:37):
I did it.

Speaker 2 (02:11:38):
I called them up and you're right, they save me.
You know, X hundred dollars. And Mary got a check
for ninety bucks after all of her shoulder injury, you know,
the X ray and the court zone shot or whatever
she got from the doctor. All that was paid by coverage,
your medical coverage. And then she got a check for
ninety bucks after all was said and done. So she
made money by visiting her doctor. It's crazy. That's why

(02:12:01):
you call John.

Speaker 12 (02:12:01):
Right, absolutely, and it's just so heartwellming to hear those
great stories because we know what we do on our end,
and we just try to plan as best as possible
for our clients, and then when these situations work out
more often than not the way we plan them, it's
just such a heartwarming feeling to know that, hey, they're
in a lot better situation than when we found them.

Speaker 2 (02:12:22):
Get you up at them at BET every morning. I
know that John five one three eight hundred call is
the number to reach them directly, or just go online
and fill the format at coversinsey dot com. Thanks again
for what you're doing for my listeners and everybody else
you work with.

Speaker 1 (02:12:34):
John.

Speaker 2 (02:12:34):
It's a real pleasure to be able to speak on
your behalf and we'll talk again real soon.

Speaker 3 (02:12:39):
I'm sure we will, Brian, thank you so much.
