including a little politics. In the beginning, I saw that

(04:26):
I'm gonna to be honest about it. I saw that
this afternoon, and I thought, you know, that'd be a
good open. What got me was that the funniest part
of that was when when after they said Elon Mosk
bought heavens, but I thought, well, yeah, we got to

(04:49):
use that one. Yeah, that's about it. Anyway, we're we're here,
we're active, and we're radio people. And uh who we

Yeah, I'm tired, but I'm here.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
And what's what's been going on with you?

Speaker 19 (06:50):
Not much? My husband got a new job.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
He's Oh, he's gone all the time.

Speaker 14 (06:59):
Now he's here.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
Meant, that's cool.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
It works.

Speaker 19 (07:07):
It looks like thirty hours or forty hours.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
I've seen little afternoon do me catching contagious. And I
see mister Evan over there smiling a smiling like a
chesser cat. What's going on? Evan?

Speaker 3 (07:30):
A good deal? Just had had Halloween earlier. I was
just telling the others, I'm just how surprised I was
at how little traffic.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
I I'm telling you, I don't know what happened. There
was hardly anybody here. We bought a whole bay old
bag of candy, hardly gave any of it away.

Speaker 18 (07:50):
They were over by Tracy and Dion yesterday. That area
over there was packed.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
I was playing bookie music and everything. Damn, nobody show it.
Hardly anybody buy here. I don't think there was what
we're about twoteen twenty kids. Maybe that's something else, and
let's narrow this down, and mister here is.

Speaker 14 (08:22):
Better than what we had over here, right, Malany.

Speaker 18 (08:26):
Yeah, I gave candy to the mailman, had just tine.
That was my only treater.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
Really, Yeah, I don't know what's up with this stuff.

Speaker 18 (08:38):
I really don't, so I ended up taking my candy
that I had bought as our friend Dion said that
he was gonna send his wife to the store.

Speaker 14 (08:51):
That's not yeah, and she wasn't even home.

Speaker 18 (08:55):
I just ran my candy over there, and I ran
the kids over to that side of town.

Speaker 10 (09:01):
Man.

Speaker 18 (09:02):
They got over a half a bag of grocery bag
of food, food.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
Ella, and then went out worker treating. They had a
whole bag pull of stuff when it come on. When
she came home today. She stayed over the overnight at
her friend's house, so I don't know how much she ate,
but she come home with a whole bag of stuff.
Mister Eric, how many how many trick or treaters did

(09:31):
you have?

Speaker 15 (09:32):
So I didn't hind out candy.

Speaker 20 (09:34):
My sister and her boyfriend did, but they were saying
that there was only like maybe twelve at most.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
Well, you got to do a questionnaire on the web
page about that.

Speaker 13 (09:53):
Uh.

Speaker 20 (09:54):
I think a lot of it. Like, there's a lot
of kids at the back end of my neighborhood, but
they don't come up to this side because most of
the people that that live on this half or older
and or their kids are at least my age or older,

(10:16):
and they don't, you know, they just don't hand out
candy anymore.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
Yeah. Oh, we actually had the pretty much all the
stuff we normally have going. You know, I had light
on all that floor was sitting out in front of
the front of the driveway, and we hardly at anybody here,

(10:41):
and usually you know, driving up and down the streets
and the cars and that there's hardly anybody here. There's
something else. So anyway, I think we've picked on everybody
in the zoom and we're still sorting out food over here.

(11:05):
But Melanie, what did you think of the open? Did
you see it?

Speaker 18 (11:16):
Yeah, but I didn't think it was a political show,
so I'm not coming.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
It was a takeoff of it It's a Wonderful Life,
except this clip was called It's an Awful Life. I
got it off YouTube. We'll give it a little credit,
all right. Anybody that has been watching us the last
few years knows that one of the things that I'm

(11:45):
into is War of the World's.

Speaker 12 (11:49):
Now.

Speaker 4 (11:49):
I haven't done anything on this thing for probably a
couple of years, but I'm thinking this year from eight
o'clock in the evening on the thirtieth to whatever it
takes the hour. I think we're going to broadcast just
on CIRK and River Radio. It's not I'm not going

(12:13):
to do any of the social media or anything like
that because they keep causing me issues. But I think
we're going to broadcast the I think we're going to
broadcast War of the World's on the station itself. If
it gets listeners, fine, If it don't, at least we tried.
So look forward to that Wednesday evening. I'll start it

(12:35):
at eight, it'll be done. It'll just come on like
a regular radio show, and we'll just do the whole thing.
I've always liked that. This is the thirty eighth or
nine forty on TES three four. This is the eighty
sixth anniversary of it. Eighty yeah, yeah, it's eighty sixth

(13:02):
anniversary of it coming this year. I still even though
I wasn't I wasn't alive when it all took place.
I remember stories my mom told me, and that always
kind of hold a place in my heart. It's nice
to see you guys. Can go ahead and eat there

(13:24):
and I'll just take I'll just take care. I'll do
my part and I'll take care of I'll take care
of the show while you guys are eating Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah. You guys ought to hear the background here.
I'm telling you, I'd be like Rodney Dangerfield again. I

(13:47):
get no respect, no respect at all. Uh, I'll tell
you what my wife get you. Yeah yeah, yeah, I'm waiting.

Speaker 15 (14:01):
WHOA.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
I almost had something thrown at me.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Wow, that would be the first time.

Speaker 4 (14:11):
I'm sorry, Eric, No, it wouldn't like and it likely
won't be the last. Anyway. The topics I've got for
tonight are have been pointed out to me by two
or three different people. We're going to cover a little

(14:32):
bit if if, if there's time, I'm going to cover
something a little amateur radio wise. It turns out this
time this was false, but it was. It's something to
think about, how they could do something like this. I'll
keep y'all in suspense until we play that one. The
big part, So the one that I want to cover is, uh,

(14:55):
Jimmy Donovan's death. What it uh to everybody? And that
was one even though I've never met the man and myself,
you know, I listened in for twenty some years to
do the Browns calling, calling the plays and everything. It

(15:15):
was pretty emotional today, the being that he passed away yesterday.
That was pretty emotional for a lot of people. The
other subjects that I want to cover though, in Stowe
and Eric, you know this is coming. Stowe had a

(15:36):
an hoa in Stowe did something completely and utterly ridiculous
and it needs to Somebody needs to talk about this.
So I figure it's going to be us to start with.
There was a woman that a ninety year old woman
that had offense erected. The HOA didn't like it, came

(16:00):
in and tore it down and charged her one thousand
dollars to tear it down. We'll cover this at some
length here in a few minutes, but to me, it
was about thinking ridiculous. We'll say the least. Oh well, anyway,
let's open a couple of microphones other other than me.

(16:23):
Here are you there? Dale? I got you with your mouthful.
I'm sorry.

Speaker 20 (16:32):
Wow, you sound like every waitress that I've had touching
me with my mouth full.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
I got a habit of doing that.

Speaker 15 (16:45):
But yeah, but uh that.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
Evidently he's not ready to ready to talk. So what huh? What? Huh? Huh?
What I don't hear you? Oh, it's because I got
you muted, that's why there. Can you hear it? Can
you hear us? Now you're gonna have to wiggle that.

(17:17):
We need to replace that, damn Warrior's what we need
to do while you're here? There and almost came on, Hey,
now we can hear you? Yeah, yeah, okay, smell good. Anyway,

(17:41):
how you doing? Dale? Nice to see you and you're here.

Speaker 6 (17:46):
Had the day that I arrived.

Speaker 4 (17:48):
And he just come home this afternoon and made a
valiant effort to get what he needed to do done
and come over here and join us for the show.
That is That is so cool? Right right? Don't everybody
talk at once?

Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yes? That's so nice to him?

Speaker 4 (18:11):
Yeah sure, I mean what do we got without Dale?
And I don't think I want to answer anyway. Everybody's
getting quiet on me here? What's going on with this?

Speaker 1 (18:30):
I'm never quiet? You should know that there is.

Speaker 4 (18:33):
Miss Flora, Hi Flora for.

Speaker 7 (18:38):
A minute, for a minute, because I gotta go finish
getting my supper ready?

Speaker 4 (18:45):
Would you order work?

Speaker 21 (18:47):
Right?

Speaker 19 (18:48):
Rice?

Speaker 7 (18:48):
And some big girls. We got an overabundance of egg
girls for some reason. I don't know why I have
to do all right?

Speaker 4 (19:00):
Why don't we Uh? God, you were going to do
something here radio clip.

Speaker 7 (19:05):
I was gonna where did everybody go?

Speaker 4 (19:08):
Well, they're here, justinees go in and finding her dinner.

Speaker 7 (19:13):
Okay, I just see.

Speaker 4 (19:17):
And Melanie, Melanie just decided to go dark on us, right, Mellie.

Speaker 7 (19:23):
On the dark side.

Speaker 4 (19:26):
Okay, Melody, I am your father.

Speaker 15 (19:31):
Okay, that's just.

Speaker 19 (19:33):
I did my makeup.

Speaker 18 (19:34):
But it looks like I'm dark eyed in your video.

Speaker 4 (19:44):
Melanie, I am your father.

Speaker 10 (19:47):
See you?

Speaker 7 (19:49):
Yeah, we see you do.

Speaker 4 (19:55):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, I want you to
do that. It can give me a second. Here, I
gotta find the switch.

Speaker 19 (20:03):
I was playing with my makeup. I don't know. It's
a different, it's definitely different.

Speaker 4 (20:09):
Okay, there you go, I see you, Melody stream plus up. No,
let's play with this little failure.

Speaker 7 (20:23):
Just because we have nothing.

Speaker 18 (20:25):
See when I take it away, it's like it looks
like I have no eyes.

Speaker 7 (20:28):
Careful there, you're gonna fall out of your chair.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
Melody, I am mere father.

Speaker 7 (20:37):
Then he goes, I'm not afraid.

Speaker 4 (20:42):
Your father too. Oh.

Speaker 7 (20:54):
We just don't know what to think.

Speaker 4 (20:56):
I don't know what to think either. Back to this, well, anyway,
well all want to do tonight? We've seen what everybody's
been up to we can have a blue flame contest.

(21:19):
I guess we wanted to.

Speaker 20 (21:22):
I mean we talked about Halloween, but we didn't talk
about how everybody's week was.

Speaker 7 (21:27):
Well, we did talk about Halloween.

Speaker 20 (21:29):
Oh we yeah, we kind of talked about it. We
just talked about how slow Halloween was for like all
of us.

Speaker 7 (21:40):
And what did you think, Laura, Well, as you were saying,
and I forgot about that was the fact that it
did seem.

Speaker 4 (21:47):
Rather rather thin.

Speaker 7 (21:50):
But Ella, now, like he was saying, she went to
apparently the friend of hers that she they went trigg
or treating. Now I'm not sure if they airport was
Akron Fulton or the airport was Akron Canton. I have
no idea, but they were trigg or treating by an
airport anyways, and she said Brandma, she says, I made

(22:12):
out really good going to that neighborhood. That's better than irony.

Speaker 6 (22:16):
That had to be down around Hilbish because there isn't
a neighborhood near Akham Canton. Well, Akron Canton, I mean there, Well,
if you go down to the south Runway town where
towards Timken, there is some allotments back there but I'm

(22:40):
thinking it's probably more likely it's probably Akron Fulton because
there's Hilbish and I can't remember the other speech over
it because that's over. It was by Derby Downs George Washington.

Speaker 7 (22:55):
Like I said, this was the first time poor Melissa
Ella Ella wanted to go trick or treat with her
friends and Lexi wanted to go trick or treat with
her friends, and so Missy was left with the old people.
So I told her she could go out outside hand
out candy like I usually do.

Speaker 4 (23:19):
You know?

Speaker 7 (23:19):
She uh. I did see one little one in a
stroller that it amuses me so.

Speaker 1 (23:28):
Judices.

Speaker 7 (23:28):
Little baby was but smiling and everything, and I said,
I'm looking at her in the mom's like, so, what
piece of candy do you want?

Speaker 22 (23:39):
And I'm thinking this kid can't even talk? Do they
even And I said, do you even have any teeth?
The mom's like, oh, well yes, she he has like four.
And I talked to myself, give me a break, let's
face it. You know you're the one that wants this candy,

(24:01):
not the kid. Anyway, And Missy says to me today,
She's like, well, didn't you ever go trick or treating?
When I was little, I said no, I said, I
said it was for you.

Speaker 7 (24:13):
It wasn't for me. I never did that, but that
was just me, I guess. So anyways, all right, and
my week, as far as my week was, I was
working overtime, and Monday was interesting because we had the
carpet clean deared and so I had to shut down

(24:35):
for a couple hours. But it worked out all right.
We still made a day out of it. So anyhow,
I'm done now, I guess you can go on.

Speaker 4 (24:50):
Do we want to do a floors or do we
want to get into a topic.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
Topic.

Speaker 20 (24:55):
I'd feel like the hoa thing would be the first
topic that can go so many directions, and that might
be a good like main show topic.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
That might be drive, that might drive the show.

Speaker 4 (25:14):
So well, I don't want to get into that while
everybody's knacking and eating and all that. I'm not sure
which show. Let me see if I can find something here, but.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
About the Yeah, that's a good one that.

Speaker 4 (25:35):
Work that way, everybody doesn't have to talk at once.

Speaker 7 (25:38):
Okay, well, I printed off some Halloween questions today since
we are pretty darn close to the thirty first anyway,
So let's see what's your favorite Halloween movie?

Speaker 4 (26:05):
Mm hmm, what's your favorite Halloween movie?

Speaker 1 (26:12):
I really don't have one, Edwards.

Speaker 4 (26:17):
Edwards says her hand.

Speaker 18 (26:21):
Mine is the hocus Pocus and hocus Pocus too, and then, uh,
Nightmare before Christmas.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
Hm, that's the one I was saying.

Speaker 14 (26:40):
I didn't hear the question. I'm sorry, Okay, it was.

Speaker 7 (26:46):
What's your favorite Halloween movie?

Speaker 10 (26:50):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 14 (26:55):
Mine would probably be Beatle Juice.

Speaker 4 (26:58):
Oh man, that's I was.

Speaker 7 (27:00):
Thinking of that one, actually, the original. I mean, I
haven't watched that second.

Speaker 14 (27:04):
One, but I heard the second one is pretty darn good.

Speaker 7 (27:07):
But but I did definitely like like that first one.

Speaker 14 (27:12):
Yeah, I mean it's a it's a classic. You can't
go wrong.

Speaker 16 (27:18):
That.

Speaker 23 (27:18):
And uh, I'm watching and now focus focus is that
the one with the three and three sisters.

Speaker 7 (27:28):
And one of them was was that that Middler? Okay, yeah,
I don't think I've ever watched it, but I've seen the.

Speaker 14 (27:37):
The ads and stuff, and no, that's another classic. But
gin I like it or you don't, so.

Speaker 4 (27:49):
I would have to change my answer to Beetlejuice.

Speaker 14 (27:55):
I really like You're welcome.

Speaker 4 (27:58):
I really like that. What's his name?

Speaker 7 (28:04):
Michael?

Speaker 4 (28:05):
Michael Keaton. I played that. He was so hyper. I loved,
I loved and I don't know if anybody saw up.
They had him on Saturday Night Live a couple a
couple of weeks ago. He was a host and it
was really I just loved his role in that thing.

(28:32):
That's my answer, Dale, you have favored.

Speaker 6 (28:38):
I really can't really narrow it down. I'm not big
on the hacking slash and the and the other type
is the jump scare. I don't like those, but I
don't remember disliking Scream and the sequels that I can remember.

(29:06):
And then what's the ones that was the Waynes brothers
that were mocking Scream? Scary movie?

Speaker 16 (29:16):
Is that what was?

Speaker 4 (29:17):
Yeah, there was, I think they were in now.

Speaker 6 (29:22):
I think I think they they're the ones that produced it,
or at least had the idea for it.

Speaker 14 (29:26):
I think it was.

Speaker 6 (29:29):
I think it was called scary movie.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
But there is things. There is a series called scary Movies.

Speaker 6 (29:35):
So yeah, I'm thinking they're parodying Scream and other other
Halloween movies. And of course Beetle Juice. The Juice was
a very good one. I think what else mm hmmm,

(30:03):
I'd have to say probably scary movie or Beetle Juice.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
I'd have to I don't have to think about a
kind of a sub question of that, what's your what's
your favorite Halloween's scary movie? I don't like them. I

(30:29):
think mine would have to be Saw That was the
worst move between that and that little What the hell
was that one with that little munchkin Chucky? Yeah, oh
my god.

Speaker 16 (30:43):
That.

Speaker 4 (30:43):
I couldn't walk on the floor for weeks after I
saw that movie. I was looking down. I didn't want
nothing to do with that. There's been a couple of them,
I think it was. Wasn't there a Twilight Zone that

(31:04):
had something like that on? It was a little voodoo
doll ran around chewing up people's feet.

Speaker 6 (31:12):
That could have been Raymond was a h that could
have been ray Bradberry Peter mhm, because he had some
macobs stuff like that.

Speaker 4 (31:28):
No, now that I think about it, you may be
right that, uh, that was probably the scariest person. I
didn't like the scary stuff too much, especially as I
was growing up, but we ended up. I think one

(31:54):
of the scariest things I ever watched was on the
Twilight Zone, and it scared me so bad. I used
to the way it was. It used to work. I'd
get up and my children did this too. I'd get

(32:16):
up and go lay by the by the door of
the bedroom and watch TV because it was the TV
where we lived was pretty much a straight shot. I
could watch TV that way. And my mother was had
the had the twilight Zone on. One night and it

(32:37):
went on along and there's no mustard. But they went
along and there was this guy that was hearing his voice,
went opened the window. Don't look out the window, don't

(33:02):
open the door. Don't open the door. And this guy
ran around and he gets on at the end of it,
he gets on his airplane and he's flying a lot
on the airplane's flying along.

Speaker 6 (33:24):
Well, I think I remember this one.

Speaker 4 (33:25):
And he hears, don't look out the window, do not
look out the window. And he takes and he he
has a blind down.

Speaker 15 (33:41):
I gotta look a that.

Speaker 4 (33:42):
I gotta look to see what the hell's going on.
And he rips this window up and there is the
scariest damn thing I ever saw, I will ever see
in my life. I jumped up off the floor, I
ran into bed, ran and jumped into bed, put the
covers over over my head, the pillow went over it
next and I stood. I sat there shivering that hole

(34:04):
the whole rest of that night. That thing scared me
so bad was he there wasn't even Oh my god,
I'll never forget that. If we uh uh, well that
I ought to be a question we asked to since
it's Halloween, you mind, Flora, mind if we add that,

(34:28):
what's the scariest thing you've ever seen? Personally? Anybody want
to go first? I'll go all right, go ahead.

Speaker 24 (34:40):
I think the scariest thing I ever seen was the
guy that committed suicide from our building. He jumped off
the eighth floor.

Speaker 4 (34:54):
Well, don't just sit there, even us and suspense. Tell
us about it. What'd you see?

Speaker 18 (35:00):
Well?

Speaker 24 (35:00):
I was the first one out to him, and his
whole skull was purple, and I had to try to
give you know, CPR to see it keep him alive.

Speaker 14 (35:13):
If he was still.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
Alive, I checked for a pulse that was very weak,
but it was there.

Speaker 24 (35:19):
And then a few other people came out, and the
ambulances and stuff showed up like five minutes later. Because
of course I lived right by a fire station. But
I guess from what Frank heard, he was up there
and the guy was blind and evidently had other issues.

(35:41):
But he was up there and he kept screaming, I'm
done with this, I'm done with this.

Speaker 14 (35:46):
And then the next thing, you know, he was.

Speaker 4 (35:51):
And he was done with it.

Speaker 18 (35:53):
Yeah, and his wife was inside sleeping when it happened.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
Wow, anybody want to go next Heaven? You look like
you're ready.

Speaker 10 (36:07):
Ill.

Speaker 3 (36:08):
I was just gonna give you my my my film.
I don't really have a you know, a scary experience
like that. I was just thinking the exercise would. Linda Blair, although, yeah,
I'm more Although her off screen exploits are probably more
feeling than the movie. It's although that the movie was
fairly good. I can't think anything it's scary, you know.

(36:32):
I've told you what I've gone to. I can't think
of anything else that's happened somebody else around me that it's,
you know, scary in that way, you know, sad maybe,
but I'm not scary. I can't come up with anything.
So I'm going to pass on that question.

Speaker 4 (36:50):
All right, that's an honest answer. I'll take that, Gloria.

Speaker 7 (36:56):
You want to go, well, nice, I saw a scary movie.
I don't like scary movies, never have, never will and
then as it was when some cousins of mine were graduating,
we all went, oh, let's go watch a movie. And
because I was a very introverted didn't really do much

(37:20):
anything at all, I went along just because and we
went to this movie. It was called Phantasm. And I
don't know if anybody knows anything about that movie, but oh,
my god, I mean it was, Oh that's right, and I,
as I remember now, it was my graduation night. I

(37:42):
don't remember what we watched their graduation night, but my
graduation night, we went to go see this movie called Phantasm,
and it was about some kid that and all I
can remember was it was there was graveyard scenes, and
there was this old fart old guy excuse me with
a and there was a doorknob that would come flying

(38:04):
through the air and suck into the people's heads and
suck their brains out and whatever. Oh it was so scary.
I went I was eighteen years old.

Speaker 4 (38:13):
I went home.

Speaker 7 (38:14):
I slept with a cross on and uh with my mother.
So that's how scared I got that movie. I ain't
never watching anything like that again, never, never, never, So
that would that was probably my It was called Phantasm,
That's what it was.

Speaker 4 (38:32):
Called What's the scariest thing you ever saw?

Speaker 7 (38:36):
Scariest thing?

Speaker 4 (38:37):
Yeah, I don't me with nothing on.

Speaker 7 (38:47):
Don't tempt me, Patrick, don't tempt me. It's farst scariest. Mhmm.
Probably when Ella went and fell upstairs and she was
bleeding from landing on the carpet tacks, that probably and

(39:11):
watching her go through with the pet children apron children,
so they put her in this like straight jacket thing
so they could make her be still, and she was
screaming her lungs out like, oh my god, what am
I buttoner grew through?

Speaker 21 (39:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (39:26):
That was that was probably pretty scary as far as
actual real like spot. I can't think of nothing else really, all.

Speaker 4 (39:38):
Right, I think who's next? Eric? Justine?

Speaker 1 (39:44):
Uh, not really into staring movies.

Speaker 4 (39:48):
The scariest thing you ever saw.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
Me as a chicken nugget.

Speaker 20 (39:55):
Nomm Finally Snapchat military doing the show and one of
the Snapchat felters is a chicken nugget, uh, and I
just came across it, so me as a chicken nugget.

Speaker 21 (40:14):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
The I don't Oh.

Speaker 20 (40:21):
Scariest thing probably would be, uh, watching a person get
wiped off their motorcycle by in a wreck. Where was
this a uh facebro intersection of three h three and fourteen.

Speaker 4 (40:45):
H Yeah, I have a couple of friends of rides
through that area all the time.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
Yeah, that was not the best situation. Then a little
further down the road, if you know where the walmart is, uh.

Speaker 20 (41:08):
Out there, I watched carget taken out by a dumb
truck because the car decided to try to cut the
dump truck off. Well, that wasn't a smart idea by
the car. Yeah, so that didn't work out. Well, nobody

(41:29):
was seriously hurting that one, so like I could kind of.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
Joke about that, but just watching someone else's stupidity.

Speaker 4 (41:41):
Mm hmm, all right, Justina, I think you're up. Next.

Speaker 23 (41:49):
Scariest movie I've ever seen is any of the Insidious movies.
Those things are freaky.

Speaker 4 (41:58):
Oh how you guys can say through something like that?
I saw that Saw movie. It was.

Speaker 23 (42:05):
Not a fan of the Saw movies, but insidious, like
it got you hooked in there and then all of
a sudden, you're.

Speaker 14 (42:13):
Like I had.

Speaker 3 (42:18):
I was with one more field.

Speaker 14 (42:23):
I was with Victoria and she has two boys.

Speaker 23 (42:27):
They were the youngest was probably like sixteen, and we
were watching insidious too, and I remember we both screamed
at the same time, but he screamed like a little girl,
and I started laughing and couldn't watch the rest of

(42:48):
the movie because I was too busy laughing at him.
But scariest thing I've ever seen was probably when one
of my patients, it was Christmas Day, was going out
with her family when I worked at heather or No,
was going out with her family and she twisted her ankle,

(43:10):
and yeah, I saw all kinds of stuff late. It
was not pretty, and I'll never forget that site like
it was gross.

Speaker 4 (43:24):
For everything you've ever seen, was that profession you're in
that surprises me?

Speaker 14 (43:34):
This was gross?

Speaker 10 (43:35):
This?

Speaker 21 (43:35):
Yeah it was im ankle laid white open, Yeah it was.

Speaker 4 (43:43):
I would imagine you want to become a nurse?

Speaker 23 (43:47):
Yeah, no.

Speaker 4 (43:50):
Time? What up with that? I suppose after a while
you'd probably yeah, but some of the grossersper I probably
would never leave you. I just thought of something that
probably was the grossest thing, or the scariest grossest thing

(44:11):
I ever saw. Was I ended up being part of it.
And when I had that accident at work, this was
several years ago, almost I think it would have been
about nineteen eighty nine ninety ninety one pulling a couple

(44:36):
of racks off of this little train they used to
bring them in on these and it was shift change
and I went to pick the things up and there
was no no fork rails on the sides of them.
We had to just pick them up like that. When

(45:00):
we picked the damn things up, I went in to
pick it up on the side like like they told
us to do. I pulled back and I felt the
rack tug on the side of the on the side
of the dolly, and it went over and it went
over right on top of somebody, crushed pretty much his

(45:23):
whole right side from what I understood, and it, uh,
that wasn't as much so bad. But he had a
friend that was a security guard, and the security guard

(45:46):
came running, got up to where all of it happened.
I saw what had happened and had an aneurysm and
just fell.

Speaker 16 (45:56):
Right on.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
He didn't he he didn't Uh, he survived it. In fact,
they both survived it. But watching even now, I have
flashbacks of that every once in a while, just watching that,
that whole thing was like all the the moon and

(46:18):
the stars and everything combined merge to uh make this
this bad thing happened. It was terrible. I won't do
a lot any of that, but uh, that's probably the
worst thing I ever saw. We've covered everybody, right, not me?

(46:40):
All right, you know what, Well, do you want to
tell us about what's the worst thing you ever saw?

Speaker 6 (46:45):
I don't really remember. I'm sure I've probably seen some
accidents over the years, but nothing really pops out at me.
But I'm not sure if this would be considered me
excuse me, I'm not sure if this would be considered

(47:07):
a Hollywood or Hollywood Halloween movie. But it was along
the lines of that of David Tennant. It's doctor Who.
I think he was the tenth doctor. If you go
on to a YouTube and search for doctor Who Weeping Angels,

(47:37):
that is some scary shit. I mean, this is the
suspense of it. They're of these concrete statues, and if
you take your eyes off of them, they come closer

(47:59):
to you.

Speaker 16 (48:02):
Mhmm.

Speaker 6 (48:03):
And when you look at him, they stay as concrete
as soon as you look away, just for us a second,
and it's almost like I can't even tell you how fast.
It's almost like so like the flash.

Speaker 16 (48:25):
It's like.

Speaker 6 (48:28):
And each time it's like closer and closer and and they,
I guess in the mood and not in the mood.
But in the show they can't kill you. But you'll
have to, uh watch the YouTube video of it that
I'm thinking that how to have been.

Speaker 10 (48:49):
Well?

Speaker 6 (48:50):
I can't remember how many years ago that one was on.

Speaker 4 (48:53):
I was Weeping Angels.

Speaker 6 (48:55):
Yeah, it's called Weeping Angels. You know the you have
to doctor who Weeping Angels? And that's very suspenseful. And
then I had back when Saul was out, I had
some people I worked with that went to see it

(49:19):
and I didn't go. I remember the commercials that they
would have on TV, and I even changed the channel
when those commercials came on. So I don't that would
probably even though I didn't see it, the depictions of

(49:41):
the scenes would.

Speaker 4 (49:42):
Probably be it. But was that movie? One thing I
remember about it? And I had my eyes closed for
most of the time I was in that flick when
something was going to happen kind of reminded me of

(50:03):
Neil Bronson picked where he played harmonica. Remember that old
Western with Charles Bronson. Every time something was going to happen,
you'd hear his harmonica start playing. Was the same way
what he saw every time when something was going to happen,

(50:26):
you hear h m hm, and then you knew something
was going to happen. Yeah, you were. You just knew
that the blood was going to fly, and they came
up through through floorboards and everything. Man, I was that
was something else mhm. I was one of those movies

(50:51):
that when you walk out of you just go, why
in the hell did I even sit there? Yep, I
am remember that?

Speaker 10 (51:03):
Well?

Speaker 4 (51:05):
Who else we got here? We haven't don't talked, We've
covered everybody.

Speaker 15 (51:12):
Right, I didn't get to say my sarious Okay, go ahead.

Speaker 14 (51:24):
The clown with the Red.

Speaker 6 (51:25):
Moon, Oh yes, Stephen King.

Speaker 4 (51:29):
I hated to do this clown movies. All I did
is all I did in the was clown around, as
your dad joke.

Speaker 6 (51:41):
What is the one? Uh killer clowns from outer space?

Speaker 4 (51:48):
All are you doing? All the doing? This movie is
a clown around. That's funny if you think of it.
But let's move on here.

Speaker 7 (52:00):
Hey, hey, I have another movie. I'm trying to look
up the name of it, but it was the one
back in the It was one of those B rated
movies from way back in the day, but it still
scared me. This girl and her friends, there was three
of them in the car, went off this bridge. They

(52:21):
was all supposed to have drowned except one of them.
And then over the course of a week she kept
being drawn back to this river where the rest of
them drowned, and pretty soon they picked the car up

(52:42):
out of the river and all three of the girls
were in it. So it was like, that's partly why
I'm afraid to go over a bridge with water running.
I think it was like carr Carnival of Horrors or
Cares Wars and I can't remember.

Speaker 11 (53:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (53:04):
Funniest car Mars Carrius car movie I saw was Carrie.
Remember that one? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (53:14):
That was the fifty six fifty seven Chevy. Yeah, yeah, No,
that was Christine Chris.

Speaker 4 (53:21):
Christine might have been one too, but I think there
was one called Carrie.

Speaker 6 (53:26):
Oh oh Carrie that was different. Yeah, Carrie, Carrie was
Was that the impetus for a fire starter?

Speaker 7 (53:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 15 (53:38):
Maybe none that I think of that, because I.

Speaker 6 (53:43):
Think Carrie or it could be conflating the two. I
do remember there is Carrie. Can I remember it was
a very pale girl with black hair.

Speaker 4 (54:00):
I'm trying to think we played that with like a.
She ended up being a country singer earlier in life. Chris, Yeah,
you're right, You're right, Susan's.

Speaker 3 (54:10):
I remember seeing Carrie a bunch of times when I
was a kid.

Speaker 4 (54:13):
Yea spasic was in that. All right, let's move let's
move things on here. I do want to get to
the main topic. Now that we're all pretty much comfortable.
I'm still eating, but well, I'm sure you guys will
allow me to fulfill myself with sustance. I want to

(54:39):
get to the main topic, which is this ho a thing. Erck,
you want to explain a little.

Speaker 1 (54:45):
Bit, and yes, So this was something I.

Speaker 20 (54:52):
Came across earlier this week on Facebook. So the story
not until before the video, But this hoa took down
somebody's fence, a ninety year old woman's fence, and charged

(55:16):
her double what it cost for the fence to be
built because her neighbor built it. And from everything that
I know, and we'll get into this deeper after it,

(55:37):
it was in the back of her house. It wasn't
even most has have issue if you do something in
the front of your house, but this was in the
back of the house for privacy. So let's roll the
video and we'll talk about it all right.

Speaker 4 (55:57):
We will look be back after this five or six
minute video, and I hope you'll stay tuned. We'll be
right back. You're watching a radio actors show on non
Crived River.

Speaker 5 (56:12):
The elderly woman was horrified when she discovered her homeowners
association had.

Speaker 3 (56:17):
Torn down her fence and then builled her for the job.

Speaker 25 (56:21):
Nineteen investigator Kelly Kennedy has more.

Speaker 2 (56:23):
It's a story you'll see on just one station.

Speaker 26 (56:27):
It's very unsettling to feel as though you're not in
control of the property that you paid for.

Speaker 13 (56:36):
Ninety year old Sylvia Hackbarth lives alone in her condo
in the King's Complex in Stow. Her backyard doesn't have
much privacy, so she wanted a fence.

Speaker 26 (56:46):
I'm exposed here to everything that goes by.

Speaker 13 (56:49):
Edward Davidian lives next door.

Speaker 27 (56:51):
I get her paper, I hit her mail, I put
the patio in.

Speaker 13 (56:56):
Davidian helped his next door neighbor with the whole process.
They both comitted the same city permits, the same plans,
and even built the same exact fence. But as you
can see, only the nine year old fence was torn down.

Speaker 27 (57:09):
And they sent me a letter saying your fence has approved,
and I assumed they sent her one, and while the
carpenters were doing mine, I had him go ahead and
do hers, and then I painted it, and then she
gave me the letter that they were coming to cut
it down.

Speaker 13 (57:24):
City records show both neighbors got permits for their fences
this June. Davidians sent the Teams Condo Association the permits
and all of the plans Hackbarth had sent to the
board for approval. He figured that would be enough, but
he was wrong.

Speaker 27 (57:39):
And then Monday came around and I heard the saws,
and I came outside and they were cutting the fence.

Speaker 4 (57:45):
Pathetic.

Speaker 6 (57:46):
They have never done anything like this.

Speaker 13 (57:48):
The condo association also sent Hackbarth a bill for cutting
her fence down one thousand dollars and.

Speaker 27 (57:55):
Then they're going to charge her one thousand. It didn't
cost me one thousand dollars to build it.

Speaker 18 (57:59):
Why do you think they targeted you?

Speaker 26 (58:01):
Oh, I think they think I'm not going to do anything.
You know, I'm just really saddened by all of this.
This is my home. I'm in my ninetieth year, and
I really hadn't expected to have to move again, and
I hope.

Speaker 4 (58:14):
I don't have to.

Speaker 13 (58:15):
I reached out to the Kams Condo Association, but so
far I have not heard back. Reporting in Stowe, Kelly
Kennedy nineteen.

Speaker 21 (58:23):
News, who's WOIO for that video?

Speaker 4 (58:40):
Did you helpful? What have you done as far as
anything following up here?

Speaker 1 (58:48):
So I've reached out to.

Speaker 20 (58:52):
Kelly the reporter and nuts about it, and I've also
reached out to the mayor.

Speaker 1 (59:00):
Haven't heard anything from him.

Speaker 4 (59:01):
But I'm not I don't think that. What I think
what I'm going to do is I'm not going to
let this go. I'm I'm gonna use a little bit
of the podcasting power that we have here, which in
some respects isn't a lot.

Speaker 7 (59:21):
But at least I just thought of something. Maybe you,
maybe you could reach out to the lady that interviewed
you a while back. Oh is that not a thought?
Because that might be an interesting subject for her.

Speaker 21 (59:41):
I wasn't.

Speaker 1 (59:43):
I had another idea, and I'm going to you know
who she's talking about, right.

Speaker 20 (59:49):
Yes, I do, and I that would be a good idea,
But I have even better that all I'll tell you later.

Speaker 1 (01:00:03):
Once I reach out.

Speaker 4 (01:00:05):
Okay, I'm gonna take him. Like I said, We're not
going to let this go. This woman needs some help,
and if we can help her, I would. I really
think we should do it. This is bullshit on the
side of that that hoa. They should have let her
know before that fence was built, that it wasn't approved,

(01:00:26):
and that they once it was built, they should have
just left it go. Most hoa's have the have a thing,
and I believe me, I've dealt with the ones in Florida.
I've dealt with a couple of them up here. We've
done shows on complete shows on hoas and they all

(01:00:51):
seem to do the same thing. In fact, I had
John Brown, one of the partners here. He lives in
an hoa and what his people tell him is that
it's in the back of your house, do whatever you want.
And unfortunately, this poor lady built something on the back
of her house to keep the people from to give

(01:01:13):
her a little bit of privacy, and she's not allowed
to have the fucking privacy break. This is what pisses
me off about these hoas. You pay one hundred thousand,
two hundred thousand dollars for a house to live there
and they're going to come in and tell you what
you're gonna do, complete and total bullshit. I'm sorry, mister Hoa,

(01:01:38):
you can stick it up your ass. I'd never live
in one. I never want to even to hear the
word hoa. But when something like this happens, it pisses
me off, and it's gonna piss me off enough that
I'm gonna take some action and we're going to do
something about this. I've been I've as we went through

(01:01:59):
these podject guests and things over the years. This is
one of the topics that really kind of you know,
being an amateur radio operator like I am. I've got
the FCC and the government behind me. They backed me
pretty much. They tell me I'm allowed to if I
no matter where I live, I'm allowed to put up

(01:02:21):
at least one intenna, and that's fine. I can put
up to one intent and can communicate where I want
to communicate. Well, when they think that, these hoas think, well,
you got an antenna and it's unsightly from the front
of the house, so you're going to have to take

(01:02:43):
that down. We'll kiss my aunt. It's my property. I
paid one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand dollars for this property.
You're not going to tell me how to run my life.
But now I can get off the sawbox. But like
I said, I this pisses me off, and we're going
to do something about this. I think this woman needs

(01:03:06):
some support. I think she needs help, and I think
somebody needs to get this h a way to give
her a little bit of a break and rebuild that
damn fence for her. It was wrong that they took
it down. He had permits from the city and the
county and that's all you have to have to put
a fence up now. Anybody else got any comments?

Speaker 20 (01:03:35):
Yes, sorry, as you were talking, I was typing. I'll
let you know off the air who I'm reaching out to.
But yeah, it's ridiculous, and this is an embarrassment to
the city because you know, the city rarely gets news anyway,

(01:03:55):
let alone now for this crap. You know, as she said,
they're targeting her. She's ninety and they don't expect her
to do anything. They just expect her to bow down.
That's crap, it really is, and somebody needs to do

(01:04:18):
something or sue that hoa because that's ridiculous and disrespectful.

Speaker 4 (01:04:27):
To her. Now, mind you, I could see if it
was on the problem property, but it wasn't. Yeah, it
wasn't on the back of our house, and I haven't
I don't see any problem with that anybody else having.

Speaker 3 (01:04:46):
I would also add, what's worse is they build her
one thousand dollars for tearing down that wall in the
first place. The very least they the HOA should do
is reimburse her the money. Now they where do they eat?
You're right, where do they come off tearing down that way,
you know, that wall that she had permits for and

(01:05:09):
then billing her for the woman might not have one
thousand dollars to you know, throw around that. That's what
burns me up as much as having that wall torn down,
you know, is the fact that she was being built
for the uh, for the work that was done that
she never asked to have done. So that's that that's

(01:05:31):
what makes me burn and I hope that that we
can make something happen.

Speaker 20 (01:05:36):
Yeah, it's just just me myself, No sorry, but it's
just ridiculous that they're targeting somebody that they didn't go
after the guy who built it, who built the fence
for himself. But they're targeting, targeting. You can't talk targeting

(01:05:57):
and innocent. Uh old lady who again, like I said,
they didn't expect her to defend herself. Well, let's just
say that that station is probably not going to be
the only one to look into it. I'm not gonna

(01:06:18):
say on the air who I just reached out to,
but I'll tell y'all off the air.

Speaker 4 (01:06:26):
So are they friends of the friends of our our podcast.

Speaker 1 (01:06:31):
We've had them on, Yes, yeah, I knew.

Speaker 4 (01:06:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 20 (01:06:39):
So anyway, we'll see if they get back to me.
But I feel like that, you know, they were, they'd
be a good resource for this because they'll dig into
it deeper than uh that the network we just played
that story for. So anyway, Yeah, I think it's just

(01:07:07):
ridiculous that they're.

Speaker 1 (01:07:08):
Doing that, and they need to be called to the
floor on that.

Speaker 4 (01:07:14):
They need they need to be called out on it.

Speaker 14 (01:07:17):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (01:07:19):
And we need all platforms.

Speaker 20 (01:07:22):
You know, Hopefully this show goes out to the right
person and somebody will be able to you know, make
a uh deal about this, or maybe there's an attorney
listening that could step in and help, because that's what
needs to happen right now.

Speaker 1 (01:07:45):
I mean to get have to get an attorney over
a fence is sounds kind of stupid.

Speaker 4 (01:07:51):
But and the h the h O as if you don't,
if they don't get slapped down on something like this,
they're just going to continuance m And that's another thing
that aggravates me. No place has it right tell you

(01:08:15):
how to how you can operate one hundred percent of
your property. Somebody ever come in here and tried to
tell me that they'd be uh, they'd have a foot
up there, asked, but walking out the door for one thing,
and then if they came back, they'd be meeting my
buddy Smith and Wilson.

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
But okay, at the same time within h O A.

Speaker 20 (01:08:40):
And I'm just asking question here, not trying to start
a debate or anything, but like, don't you sign a
contract with rules.

Speaker 1 (01:08:52):
Like when you move in?

Speaker 4 (01:08:58):
Yeah, but I'll bet there's nothing about that contract or
about that fence in that contract. I'd be surprised for Crows.
It doesn't really go when you move in. You you
kind of sort of at least the contracts I've seen
from them, when you move when you move in, that's

(01:09:22):
in the document stuff that you sign. There's usually one
with an that says h o A on it. You
agree pretty much to abide by their local rules and
what have you. Doesn't say anything about building when you

(01:09:43):
you you pretty much agree to keep keep her the
front of your property maintained. Now, if you live, let's
take this and put it in a different perspective. Disney
has got one of the worst h o as I've

(01:10:03):
ever seen in it. They want you to take You're
not allowed to paint your house. You're not allowed to
take and put a footprint in front of your front
yard without their permission. And I would never you never

(01:10:24):
catch me living there. I'd just be no way.

Speaker 1 (01:10:29):
I wonder if there's a way we can obtain it.

Speaker 10 (01:10:33):
Is that.

Speaker 21 (01:10:35):
I wonder.

Speaker 4 (01:10:38):
I wonder if that's public documents.

Speaker 1 (01:10:42):
That's where I was going with it.

Speaker 4 (01:10:45):
It might be interesting to see if we can get
a hold of that.

Speaker 20 (01:10:49):
That's why I reached out to from the show to
see if they, being that they're investigative reporters, that they
obtain that and.

Speaker 4 (01:11:01):
Maybe I may I may reach out, I may help
you out and reach out to there's like I said,
there just needs to be something done with this.

Speaker 7 (01:11:13):
If there's a matter of public record, we can actually
go online because that's Summit County, correct, and it would
probably be the Diahogo Stole Municipal Court whatever it is
over there. Anyway, I probably could just go online and

(01:11:34):
check out and see if there's anything out there.

Speaker 4 (01:11:38):
Probably I would assume we'll all leave that up to
my public investigator, Miss Flora. I swear she ot to
be a detective mh And that's a compliment here, so
you know anyway, but UH pretty much covers that topic

(01:12:06):
for right now. Anybody games.

Speaker 20 (01:12:15):
Which is off of Brookshire, which is off of Springdale
and Stow.

Speaker 18 (01:12:22):
What was the name of it again, I didn't hear
the first part. Teams K K A, M E S Okay,
thank you.

Speaker 4 (01:12:35):
Yeah, well we have enough people in this group and
listen to the show we can get something doing.

Speaker 1 (01:12:47):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 20 (01:12:48):
And I have connections with a guy who writes for
a local news blog that I just reached out to
to see if he uh if the h O a
our public record or not. I bet they are mm hmm,

(01:13:10):
because if so, he might be able to help us
out because he writes for UH a place called the
dough Spotlight owned or run by the Portager. If you
ever heard of the heard of them there. Yeah, so
he writes for them and he actually follows us too.

(01:13:37):
I met his wife, uh last week and she said
he follows all my podcasts, so.

Speaker 1 (01:13:49):
All our podcasts. So uh, I'll find out from him.

Speaker 4 (01:13:56):
That would be a good idea. All right, let's see
move on to something a little different. I've got two
topics left, three topics. Actually, we've got Jimmy Donohan, which
I was thinking about holding till the end, and then
we'll end with that. We got the thing on war

(01:14:17):
the world's and a repeater tax? What's it gonna be
everybody talk about?

Speaker 20 (01:14:29):
Sorry again, I'm doing my investigative work as we're on
the air, so.

Speaker 1 (01:14:38):
I would say the amateur radio thing.

Speaker 19 (01:14:42):
I just sent you a link Da and Flora.

Speaker 4 (01:14:48):
All right, ooh, this looks interesting property records.

Speaker 19 (01:15:02):
Okay, I don't know if that will help, but hey,
I tried.

Speaker 4 (01:15:14):
Well, we have to find out who word there. The
exact property is what we could look up there there.
We'll look at this later.

Speaker 1 (01:15:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 20 (01:15:29):
Like I said, I'm reaching out to all my uh
people that I can try to get.

Speaker 4 (01:15:35):
All right, do we do the repeater tax first? Anybody
else having a comment? What they want to do next,
you got repeater text Jimmy Donovan or War in the.

Speaker 3 (01:15:47):
World, repeater tax.

Speaker 4 (01:15:49):
I'll second half, all right, I guess since nobody else
is talking, will do repeater tax. This is kind of
a BS article. You'll hear. You'll understand why once you
hear where it came from. But this is a in

(01:16:09):
kind of the world of what if. And I think
you'll find this interesting, especially if you're like minded amateur
radio operator like I am. We are here, hang loose,
will be back on the other side of this. This
is a kind of an enjoy watching this thing. You're

(01:16:29):
watching the radio active show. You're on the Crooked River Radio.

Speaker 2 (01:16:42):
Good morning at fellow amateur radio operators. I didn't think
I was going to have to be making this video,
but yet here we are.

Speaker 10 (01:16:49):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:16:49):
A couple of days ago, I saw a headline float
across one of my timelines on social media because the
algorithm b algorithm, and it was about the SCC proposing
attacks on repeater systems. I didn't even click the headline
because instantly I'm like, this makes absolutely no sense whatsoever,
is not true, and it's not even worth my time
and I don't need the entertainment, so I didn't even

(01:17:11):
bother reading it. But come this morning, I see now
we have the YouTubers starting to hit with stories and
sharing out things that are just plainly untrue, completely untrue
things on social media to make money and get attention.
I'm shocked. But let's dive in and see where all
this actually emanates from. This is a site out of

(01:17:31):
Canada by a group of Canadian hams, and they have
this blog as a part of it, called The Dipole.
Now Here at the top of the page, it says
the world's finest amateur radio news source, just by saying
that my spidy senses are already up like a dipole.
There are two sides to every story. We ignore these
sides key digging deeper for unwanted lobes and parasitic reactions.

(01:17:52):
There's the other piece, reactions. Now I'm a part of
that club only because other people can't either think critically
or they're too desperate for attention and money. And now,
well here we are. Let's go down and see what
this is all about. Supposedly, the FCC regulator's propose repeter
tax in a move to cause a certain to cause

(01:18:12):
controversy in the US amateur radio community. All right, well,
they're already telling you what you want to do is
stir up controversy. You want to get angry thirty leading
with that against bid, These sentences are going off. The
Dipole reached out to the FCC Board director chairwoman. Wait
a minute, hold on, If you're going to get a
quote from the FCC and no blog is going to
get it anyways, it's going to come from their PR person,

(01:18:35):
not directly attributed back to the head of the FCC.
Just to be clear, does she have quotes in media? Absolutely?
Is it going to be some random site called the Dipole?
Absolutely not so Again, the fact that they're saying they
have quotes from all these people, immediately, I'm like, yeah,
probably not going to happen. It's thought that the tax

(01:18:56):
inerpewers will eliminate as many as ninety percent of existing
amateur radio repeater systems. This will sure to cause controversy
and attention.

Speaker 10 (01:19:04):
Right.

Speaker 2 (01:19:06):
She went on to say that if the spectrum is
not used after this change, we may consider selling it
off to industry. That'll also get people stirred up, wouldn't it.
Furious efforts are expected by the A double RL to
oppose these changes. We will lobby extremely hard to keep
things exactly as they are. Cold repeaters and dead air.
Do you honestly think the A double RL is going

(01:19:27):
to say cold repeaters in dead air really come on?
And then again they say that there reporting from the FCC, Washington,
d C, Scott VA seven SL. So again, this is
where this story comes from. But as you can see,
it's obviously not true. It's satire. And we can look
throughout the site too and other stories that they have

(01:19:51):
that will show you the exact same thing. Bottom line,
this is satire. The whole blog on this website is satire,
and I will link it down below because because there
is some interesting and funny stuff on there. So it's
not a bad sight if you understand what you're reading,
which apparently some YouTubers don't because I don't know, there's
that much ignorance, or they're just desperate for money and attention,

(01:20:13):
and that's really unfortunate if they're trying to put it
out there and push it as maybe true when it's
obviously not.

Speaker 6 (01:20:21):
I can't take much more of this.

Speaker 2 (01:20:24):
Thanks for watching. I'll catch you again next time.

Speaker 4 (01:20:36):
All right, what y'all think.

Speaker 21 (01:20:40):
I mean it.

Speaker 20 (01:20:42):
I think it's ridiculous because I don't see the FCC
doing that. But at the same time, a legal question here,
is that constitutional for the FCC to tax that?

Speaker 4 (01:20:58):
Well, yes and no. The thing of it is, and
a lot of people don't realize, is your usual run
of the mill amateur radio club is more than likely

(01:21:21):
five oh one C three. Now, if you know what
five oh one C three means, then you'd know the
answer answer to what I'm going to tell you here
or what I'm gonna say here. Fible one C three
is non profit, means you make no profit, means you

(01:21:42):
probably don't get any profit. You don't get any money
to make any proper because it's non profit. Now you
can attax a nonprofit or anything else like that. Amateur
radio is just exactly that. Am Sure, we're an amateur

(01:22:05):
radio operator, you're doing it not for money, but for
the skill and the learning experience in amateur radio. You're
not going I've invested in the time my time an
amateur radio operator. As an amateur radio operator, I probably

(01:22:27):
got or I probably bought at least sixty or seventy
thousand dollars in amateur radio. It's not cheap if you
want good gear, if you want if you want something
that's going to talk the world, if you want something
that's going to get into your local repeater. This talks money,

(01:22:52):
talks for them to take and say, oh, we're going
to tax or repeater system. How are you going to
tax something to ain't making any money to begin with?
There'll be a tax write off. Anybody else want to
add to this? You know you're a ham.

Speaker 14 (01:23:14):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (01:23:20):
I don't.

Speaker 6 (01:23:21):
I don't get it. But of course nothing surprises me
anymore with how the country is going.

Speaker 4 (01:23:32):
So you know, like I said, it's just trying to
tax something like that would be ridiculous. I don't know
where they come up with some of these ideas. Flora,
anybody else got anything to add? Heaven? JP? Pretty good, JP,

(01:23:53):
You got anything to add? You make any money on
your amateur radio?

Speaker 6 (01:24:00):
Actually, isn't it in the actual f SEC rules that
unless you are an instructor.

Speaker 4 (01:24:10):
That you're not even even if you're an instructor, you're
not allowed to make any money?

Speaker 13 (01:24:15):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:24:15):
Really?

Speaker 6 (01:24:15):
Even if no, then how does the W five y I?

Speaker 4 (01:24:22):
That is a good, good question is.

Speaker 6 (01:24:29):
Pretty good.

Speaker 4 (01:24:29):
Well, Gordon West is making he's a book writer. That's
a whole different story. But these actually the education education
material or that he's making the money off of his books.
You're allowed to do that, I know, but it's just
kind of you know. But as far as if I
make an appearance somewhere I'm representing amateur radio, I'm not allowed.

(01:24:54):
If my call sign comes into something that's U making money,
I'm not allowed. It's to amateur radio. They're not allowed
to pay pay me for a broadcast or not. If
I if I say something on the radio, I'm not
allowed to be sponsored anything like that. So nope, the

(01:25:17):
way it works anyway, that's one subject down I've wanted
to cover. The next topic is kind of a cool one.
It's not going to be the way out yet. We

(01:25:37):
got plenty of time. Anyway. What I've got is that
taken every year we run the War of the Worlds
or up till the last couple of years we've run
with them. We've even done shows on the War of
the Worlds, And that is such a neat broadcast that

(01:26:02):
I look for when it gets this time of the year,
I look forward to doing something about it. This year
is no different. I'm going to play you guys a
couple of minute clip here. I think it's five or
six minutes. It explains what happened during that time and
what the consequences of it were. So let's buzz into

(01:26:26):
this thing. We'll knock this down in a couple few
more minutes. We'll cover Jimmy Donovan and then we'll get
out of here. As of right now, I want to
take and cover The War of the Worlds. Watch this,
we'll be right back and talk about it. You're watching
a RADIOCTA show. Whatever.

Speaker 28 (01:26:53):
The War of the World's broadcast was one of the
most memorable events to occur in the nineteen thirties. What
happened during this broadcast? Who perpetrated this stunt? On October thirtieth,
nineteen thirty eight, the Mercury Theater Radio Group aired a
dramatic radio presentation of the classic H. G. Wells novel

(01:27:14):
The War of the Worlds. The novel conveys the story
of an alien invasion of Earth. The group conducting the
broadcast presented the story in a modern setting and changed
the stage to New York and New Jersey. Whereas the
original novel had taken place in England. The story was
presented in real time, as if the events were actually

(01:27:38):
taking place. Regular music programming was periodically interrupted with special
bulletins which informed the listeners of the latest news regarding
the alien invasion. Many people heard these reports and believed
the invasion was really happening. At the beginning of the broadcast,
there was an announcement stating that the program was a

(01:28:01):
radio drama. Unfortunately, many people missed this announcement. Thousands of
listeners called the police. Some went outside and convinced themselves
that they could see flashes of light in the distance
as the battle ensued. Others were certain that they could
smell poisonous gases being fired by one side or the other.

(01:28:24):
There were incidents of hysteria all across the country. Many
people rushed into the streets with shotguns and rifles, ready
to battle the unknown alien enemy. Others fled to the
hills trying to escape the cities. The situation was made
increasingly worse because the broadcasters were using real place names.

(01:28:46):
For example, the initial alien landing was supposed to have
taken place at Grover's Mill. Crowds of people arrived at
this location with guns and other weapons. As a result,
the police and fire departments were forced to go there
and manage the crowds. Bystanders who saw the mass of

(01:29:08):
armed citizens, police and firemen had no choice but to
believe that the rumors of alien invasion were true. It
has been estimated that approximately six million people listened to
the broadcast, and of those, up to one million may
have believed the events were actually happening. Orson Wells, the

(01:29:31):
twenty three year old director of the program, was largely
unaware of the public's reaction. He and his fellow performers
were simply trying to present an entertaining radio program. Today,
there is much debate over how many people were genuinely panicked.
Many of the stories about hysteria were exaggerated by newspaper

(01:29:53):
articles which appeared in the days that followed. In fact,
despite the thousands who might have been frightened, there were
indeed millions who listened to the program and were thoroughly entertained. However,
the War of the World's broadcast did have a major impact.
The broadcast helped Americans appreciate how effective radio could be

(01:30:17):
for news broadcasts. Many people also learned the valuable lesson
of not believing everything they heard on the radio.

Speaker 4 (01:30:34):
What did you guys think, did you I've heard.

Speaker 3 (01:30:45):
I haven't heard the whole broadcast. I understand that after
that broadcast aired. One of the things that the Federal
Communications Commission did was they mandated that all radio and
television stations, whether they are, whether they were commercial or

(01:31:05):
non commercial, had to identify themselves at the top of
every single hour, or either before or just a few
minutes before or just a few minutes after the top
of every hour. That was one of the requirements that
came out of out of that war, the World's broadcast,
just to make sure that people knew, Okay, this is
not really happening, this is.

Speaker 4 (01:31:27):
Fake, this is a test.

Speaker 7 (01:31:31):
I was going to say, well, I don't know what
mister Patrick has in mind for this year's anniversary of
because it was what October thirtieth or.

Speaker 4 (01:31:40):
October thirtieth today? We're going to play the whole thing.

Speaker 7 (01:31:45):
In meeting night, though, isn't it?

Speaker 12 (01:31:47):
No?

Speaker 4 (01:31:47):
No, not another week?

Speaker 7 (01:31:50):
Okay? Well, then I was going to say, Evan, if
you don't have anything else to do Wednesday.

Speaker 4 (01:32:02):
I'm gonna play the whole thing the way that's that
show actually it was an Archao radio production. And what
they did is that that that actually aired.

Speaker 16 (01:32:18):
It was.

Speaker 4 (01:32:20):
Mystery Science Theater, I think it was.

Speaker 7 (01:32:23):
I remember exactly the name of its science theater.

Speaker 4 (01:32:27):
Was that thing mystery Anyway, they came on the air
and briefly said this is this is play and that's
all they said. And they start the broadcast or that
they start this thing talking about the aliens.

Speaker 18 (01:32:53):
You know.

Speaker 4 (01:32:55):
I'll tell you a story about My mother used to
tell me. She told me this two or three different times,
and I always remember her talking about it. She was
eight years old when that start, when that thing came on,
and her and her dad used to sit and listen
to the radio all the time. It was like TV

(01:33:16):
is nowadays, and her and her dad used to sit
and listen to it. Well, this thing came on. They
came in right in the middle of or right in
the beginning of it, but didn't hear the disclaimer, and
it comes out, he said. When we sat down, she says,

(01:33:36):
we couldn't figure out what that. We thought there was
an actual news. It was a news broadcast. And she
says the more we listened, the scarier it got. And
she says, but my dad was smart, and she says,
at that point in time when they switched from California,
from California to New York to wherever, it took about

(01:34:01):
thirty forty seconds for it to switch. Wasn't immediate, and
her dad picked up on. He says, this ain't real.
What do you mean, Dad, They're switching too quick. Listen
to that switch. He says, they don't switch that quick now,
and that's what tipped him off, and she that's what

(01:34:24):
kept them from going out to see what the hell
was going on. He kept saying, this isn't real, This
isn't real. This can't be real. There's too much it's
not taking enough time to switch. They're going way too fast.

Speaker 10 (01:34:39):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:34:39):
If that would happened nowadays, with the instant switching, it
it would have been a lot more believable. There's people
jumping off of buildings because of this thing. There was
people in New York going to that farm and surrounding
that farm trying to see what the hell was going on.
That was that that that mill. There was also when

(01:35:04):
they started saying there was stuff that was landing in
other places. People were reporting that they were seeing flashes
in the sky. There were people jumping off of buildings
in New York because of this, and it was all fake.
It got down, she says, when they never I did

(01:35:26):
until forty five minutes after the hour. In other words,
you they I did at the beginning of it. It
went forty five minutes until they come on and said,
and this was after the police departments were getting flooded
with calls, and the UH and all the TV and

(01:35:48):
all the radio stations were getting called on that network
about they were causing a panic, and it did. It's
scared to hell out of everybody.

Speaker 7 (01:36:00):
The power of suggestion, that's what you call it.

Speaker 4 (01:36:04):
And you know, well, I don't know how something like
that would happen today, but you can. Can you imagine
you're living in nineteen thirty eight. You've got Hitler marching
around over in Europe. Somebody just invented nylons, you know,
so women are walking around in Nylon posary and you know,

(01:36:26):
you've got Benny Goodman playing on a radio, and there
is no such thing as television, and your idea of
a fun Saturday or Friday or Sunday night is sitting
there listening to the radio. And when something like this

(01:36:47):
comes on it's like, well, here's a news slash. Okay,
what's the flat We're being invaded? Wow, that's stuff just
baffled me. And it's it's just so cool to think
back about what it would have been like, Like what

(01:37:07):
what about what it would have been like back then? Oh,
you even had packards on the road and the old
the old packard cars you had. You probably had a
net soul or two out there driving around. You had
cars and when they turn the headlights, so turn with it,

(01:37:29):
and so you could see you a direction very well,
and so so you could see you around the corner.
Of course, then I get my car, my truck out
there will do that. It's kind of weird because I go.
My truck's got a light on each each corner, and
as I'm going to turn the steering wheel, the light
comes on and it shows me which way I'm going.

(01:37:51):
That's pretty cool, So I digress. Do you think something
like that could happen today?

Speaker 10 (01:37:59):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:38:01):
No, harder, harder to for hard to prove that people
are more cynecal.

Speaker 4 (01:38:06):
Even with everything going Even though it's everything going on today,
you don't think we could aliens in vain depending on.

Speaker 7 (01:38:19):
Who, Depending on who, would be the one delivering the message.
I bet you you could get people.

Speaker 4 (01:38:25):
This is Roalter Crunkry. This is Edward JA Morrow and
and we're watching the invasions from Space Edward J. Merle.
That was it? Edwin J Merle? Wasn't that it?

Speaker 7 (01:38:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (01:38:49):
But I like.

Speaker 4 (01:38:53):
I like Rolter Crunkry, Paul Harvey, Paul Harvey, Good Day.
This is Paul Harvey, Good Day.

Speaker 1 (01:39:06):
How about George?

Speaker 4 (01:39:08):
I never watched George. I never heard Norris sign off.

Speaker 11 (01:39:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:39:15):
I always like Paul Harvey. That guy had some of
the funniest news on his show you could ever listen to.
And it was all kind of done in jest. You know, Sdeah,
What do you think could could we be invaded? Would
everybody believed aliens from space? M?

Speaker 16 (01:39:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:39:41):
That leads to another question, do you believe in aliens
from space? Yeah? Yeah? Do you think there's something out there?

Speaker 7 (01:39:54):
Aliens?

Speaker 4 (01:39:56):
And there are they in spring Pace?

Speaker 7 (01:40:00):
Colonel Link sausage and pigs, and and those youngsters go,
what the flip is she talking about?

Speaker 4 (01:40:21):
It's time for pigs? Since I just.

Speaker 6 (01:40:26):
Think it's completely possible, because I've across this country for
a couple of decades, and I observe people because I
have nothing else to do.

Speaker 4 (01:40:38):
Ever been by in your area fifty one?

Speaker 6 (01:40:40):
Yeah, I've been been near that.

Speaker 4 (01:40:44):
Ever seen any aliens there? You Ever been by sky
or Skinwalker? Wreck Utah? Where if the northern Utah I
could have been, that would be Yeah, another place I'd.

Speaker 1 (01:41:01):
Like to visit.

Speaker 7 (01:41:02):
Well, let him finish his thought there.

Speaker 4 (01:41:04):
Oh, go ahead, go ahead.

Speaker 6 (01:41:06):
Sorry, but I observe because I'm paying attention to the traffic.
But you know, my brain can do more than just
hold a steering ball and watch, you know, traffic go by.

(01:41:26):
And I, like I said, I observe people. And I
just found this little he's a hat trink tubing that
had had on the table here. And it's like I
always have this thought of when I see some people,
I just always think of the person, just like you know,
it's like these people are like It's like some of

(01:41:50):
the things that kind of amused me is sitting in
like a rest area that I like parking and resh
stories that around the country and you'll see signs that say,
you know, trucks go this way, cars you know, car

(01:42:13):
you know, like cars go this way in trucks and
then vehicles tolling trailers go this way. And what I
always find humorous is I'm sitting there either eating lunch,
where I'm taking my mandatory risk break, and you see
these people coming into the parking area and they have

(01:42:34):
this like look on their face.

Speaker 4 (01:42:36):
Like what are all these trucks doing here?

Speaker 14 (01:42:43):
Where am I?

Speaker 6 (01:42:46):
And then you see and it's sort of like, you know,
them trying to get out of an opening paper bag
and they get lost.

Speaker 4 (01:42:57):
I'm not.

Speaker 6 (01:42:58):
There's this one time there's this blue min event. I
remember it like it was yesterday, and this was probably
at least I don't know, ten years ago. I have
no idea, but I remember it like it was yesterday,
and the rest area, the interstate, the Interstate where's the camera?

(01:43:18):
Interstate came around like this, and then the ramp kind
of like if the Interstate went went this way, the
ramp went that way in to the restory, and then
there it v's off and the cars are supposed to go, well,
I guess from your vantage point, the cars are supposed

(01:43:41):
to go to the right, the trucks are supposed to
go to the left. This blue mini van comes in
and we're all parked this way and in we're supposed
to come in the back and the pull through you know,

(01:44:01):
parking space, and then continue pulling out and then where
you know merges again. Car comes in. It's little mini
van comes in and they're like, I mean, eyes wide
open up, their mouths like they're like looking around. So

(01:44:23):
they go down to the end of the trucks and
they go around to the backside of the trucks. They
come back up. They come back around, and they're looking around.
So they go down to where.

Speaker 4 (01:44:42):
They meet.

Speaker 6 (01:44:45):
So they turn right, they go back up the exit
ramp leading to the expressway for the cars going into
their parking area. Okay, they come around, they come back
back around to where I'm at. They circle around like

(01:45:07):
three times until they finally figured out how to get
to where they back on the interstate. So that little
I think it's just to point out that if people
can get lost in a rest area that has one
entrance and one exit, I'm pretty sure you can convince

(01:45:30):
people that there's an innovation because there's enough. There's also
enough people that our government anti government conspiracy type things
where if the government were to come on and saying
that no, this is fake, this is not happening, and

(01:45:52):
even I'm not at that at that level of conspiracy
minded you know thing, but they're not going to believe you. Yeah,
and that's why I'm thinking.

Speaker 11 (01:46:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:46:10):
And as far as my thoughts of why, you know,
why I think there were alien life, not to ramble
on much longer, but there's enough things that have happened
in the world that science hasn't been able to explain.

Speaker 10 (01:46:31):
That.

Speaker 6 (01:46:31):
It's not an off the wall idea to think that
there are other being because you have to think about
the uh, the miracle of human life. When when you
really think about it, run the spinning blue orb twenty
three thousand miles an hour spinning through the universe. It's like,

(01:46:56):
were they only and not? You know, I know it
could stole into like you know, Antipius type beliefs about
creationism and that, but it's still, how do we know
that God didn't create the aliens?

Speaker 4 (01:47:13):
You know, we know that he did. Yeah, you know
they are the Maybe they are the creators.

Speaker 6 (01:47:19):
If you actually read books from like Zachariah Sitchen and
some others about the Anaki.

Speaker 4 (01:47:27):
And the Yes, I know a lot about the Anaki and.

Speaker 6 (01:47:30):
The and the tenth planet in Neburu and some of
these you know things depictions that you have on these
cave paintings from like nine hundred eighty going all the
way back to like thirty four hundred of the same depiction.
And these people were separated by thousands of years. It's

(01:47:52):
kind of impossible to have the exact same depiction of
you know, these paintings of you know, big beings, you know,
and then have this big blue you know, this orb
in the sky type of depiction, and and some other things.
And also even when you read, you read all the

(01:48:16):
books in the in the Bible, and this the whole
story of like Sodom and Gomorah and things like that.
I'm sure like the fire and brimstone could have easily
have been a meteor shower.

Speaker 4 (01:48:30):
And I can fill you in a little bit on that.
Back a couple of years ago, they actually did a
study of the stars from where Sodom and Gomorro was
supposed to be, and they ran that thing back and
three thousand something BC on a Wednesday is when they

(01:48:53):
think that that fire and brimstone happen. They narrowed it
down to a day and well the evening of a
day between Wednesday and Thursday. That's awesome when the stuff
they came up with and it was they said that
the things lined up to where they thought it probably

(01:49:15):
was a meteor shower and that's why the the fire
was was coming, was draping out of the sky and
burning everything.

Speaker 6 (01:49:27):
Yeah, because it's the thing that I kind of have
a my I don't know how you how you would
explain just the way I rationalize and things in my brain.
I don't know if there's anybody else like me in
the world. Wait, some of the things I think about that,
But it's so like like my take on like God

(01:49:48):
creating the aliens, how do we know that we're just
another one of his creations? And then you think about the.

Speaker 4 (01:49:57):
Maybe the aliens created us.

Speaker 6 (01:50:00):
Yeah, oh that's one of the things.

Speaker 7 (01:50:04):
Ah.

Speaker 6 (01:50:04):
It was on one of the recent episodes of Ancient Aliens.

Speaker 4 (01:50:10):
We Catch all the Time too, and that was one
of the things.

Speaker 6 (01:50:13):
That they were they were talking about. But yeah, this
kind of this kind of makes you wonder because you know,
we could be aliens. But it's like I remember watching
a show where they're trying to do it scientifically and

(01:50:34):
they're actually talking about the chromosomes and how we broke
the genome and I think it was ninety eight nine,
and so we were able to be able to sequence
all the proteins and that's what started the whole protein
folding thing. And they're trying to do it logically and

(01:50:56):
saying mathematically speaking and using all these super computers they
rented time on, and what they were trying to figure
out is, Okay, we all came from Adam and Eve.
And he said, well, what is the actual possibility of
that actually happening because of gene manipulation. It's saying that
we all came from one and they are pretty much

(01:51:19):
saying it's not possible. You're not to ramble on about that,
but they're saying that some of these things you just
have to shrug your shoorders and I think, but I know,
it's just my brain. It's also I have a lot
of time.

Speaker 4 (01:51:39):
To think, well, i'm driving what is.

Speaker 6 (01:51:43):
And you have to remember some of the things I'm doing,
is like driving overnight, and some of the things in
my brain just to entertain myself and keep myself awake,
some of the things that this kind of makes sense.

Speaker 7 (01:52:00):
That's why I said, I think I needed Sympatrick.

Speaker 14 (01:52:02):
With you first.

Speaker 4 (01:52:04):
Oh yeah, would be marvelous.

Speaker 7 (01:52:09):
Somebody to talk to. Wouldn't have to bounce all those
all those waves in your brain around all by yourself.
You could bounce them off it.

Speaker 4 (01:52:18):
Yeah, that was That would just be what Dale would need.
That's about all you needed while you're driving us truck
trying to do something here, like the light shining off
my shining forehead.

Speaker 6 (01:52:36):
But it is, it's just it's just kind of fascinates
me about and the people, you know, don't want to
believe about aliens. But if you think, you know, I know,
mar hambling, but it's more of this. You look at
some of the stories in the in the Bible about

(01:52:58):
and like the things that you did, turning water into
wine and walking on water and doing all these things.

Speaker 15 (01:53:06):
That's not unusual.

Speaker 6 (01:53:08):
So you believe that a guy built an arc, which
is proven. They did prove that Noah, somebody built an arc.
But they believe that somebody build an arc put a
whole bunch of animals on it. But yet you don't

(01:53:28):
want to believe that aliens came down and built Stonehenge
or alien or sasquatches.

Speaker 4 (01:53:34):
Of alien ormides, or pyramids.

Speaker 6 (01:53:37):
Or pyramids, and they actually had to discovery about Stonehenge
as a side tangent. They actually were able. They finally
were able through some new technology or some new discoveries.
They actually found where the stones were quarried at, and
the one of the quarries was like thirty forty miles away,
and I think another one was like twenty miles or

(01:53:59):
away or something like that. And so they actually so
now they're going to use some ground penetrating greater and
some other technology to see if they could figure out
how those stones went from the quarry where they were quarried,
not the quarry, but where they were quarried from to
where they're they're sitting at now.

Speaker 4 (01:54:20):
Yep. But but yeah, it's.

Speaker 6 (01:54:25):
I just kind of kind of think it's.

Speaker 4 (01:54:27):
What do you think? Are you an alien? Do you
eat cats?

Speaker 10 (01:54:35):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:54:36):
I don't eat cats, but I've been I've been thought
of as rather strange, so I guess that might qualify
as alien.

Speaker 4 (01:54:43):
Eric, on the other hand, I think he's an alien.

Speaker 1 (01:54:48):
Uh yeah, uh, I thought so at some point too.

Speaker 19 (01:54:53):
You guys just had Chinese food.

Speaker 4 (01:54:55):
Yeah, yeah, we were eating dogs and cats.

Speaker 10 (01:54:58):
To stop it.

Speaker 6 (01:55:00):
I had cats, I.

Speaker 4 (01:55:06):
Have I used to have a Chinese and used to
have a Chinese cookbook one hundred and one Ways to
Walk Your.

Speaker 6 (01:55:14):
Dog, Remember Yang can Cook from the eighties. Yeah, he
had that, he had the he actually had a yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:55:30):
One Ways to Walk your Dog. That was a good.

Speaker 6 (01:55:33):
Sorry, but yeah, I think he was I think you
had a duck or he had a whole chicken. But
the head, you know, it's just don't even clean. But
he's like, I remember, I think it was a chicken
or a duck. And I remember this as a child
watching Yang can Cook and he'd pick up out of
the out of the pan of the the prior hen

(01:55:57):
and he's like and then he says, I'm walking the chicken.

Speaker 4 (01:56:07):
Oh dear, okay, Oh the places this show goes, I
mean really, uh anyway, Now, my my two girls, they're
not aliens. They're too smart to be aliens, could be hybrids.

(01:56:34):
They actually own dogs, so at least the one does.
She won't talk to me. She's not on camera.

Speaker 14 (01:56:43):
I've got cat.

Speaker 1 (01:56:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:56:45):
Well, look at what I decided to join us hide
this team. Do you walk your dog? No, Now you
don't like your dog?

Speaker 14 (01:57:03):
I chune them up outside when they have to go party.

Speaker 4 (01:57:06):
Oh okay, anyway, I hate to leave this on such
a fun note. But I do have one more bit
I want to want to play. This is more of
a tribute on It's What's timeline. I think we get
close to being out of here.

Speaker 1 (01:57:27):
I feel like we should run this on my show too.

Speaker 4 (01:57:30):
Are we.

Speaker 1 (01:57:33):
On a side?

Speaker 20 (01:57:34):
Don't too even know? This isn't a sports show. When
you get off the show, check out social media because
there was a huge uh fight where there was puncher
stone in the Sunday night game.

Speaker 17 (01:57:53):
Who was that?

Speaker 3 (01:57:54):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:57:54):
What team Frisco and Dallas.

Speaker 4 (01:57:59):
Dallas to get in fight? The uh oh? Yeah, the
bad damn time the Browns one today. They should be
they should be they should be getting feisty. All right,
I do want to end with this next bit. We'll
come back and talk for a minute and then we'll

(01:58:20):
close things up. Anybody that's ever watched the Browns game since, say,
since they came back in nineteen ninety nine knows this,
knows who this guy was. He was a play by
play announcer for the Cleveland Browns. He was a hell
of a sportscaster. He not only did sports, he did

(01:58:43):
other stuff.

Speaker 17 (01:58:43):
He was.

Speaker 4 (01:58:46):
Known for doing some news. He was a reporter from
different places if they'd have a special thing that he
was going to be in the neighborhood of he usually
stopped and did it. I didn't know it.

Speaker 20 (01:59:01):
He also did national NFL Games, yeah exactly, and Olympics,
if you.

Speaker 4 (01:59:07):
He worked with the Olympics.

Speaker 8 (01:59:08):
I did know that.

Speaker 4 (01:59:11):
But anybody that's ever seen this guy, he just he's
such a likable was such a likable guy. And yeah,
I guess he had had leukemia when he was a kid.
It had disappeared for thirty or forty years, and then
all of a sudden he started having to fight it

(01:59:31):
again and it finally took him. As of the last
night yesterday morning. Yesterday morning, I think was when you
when the announcement came out that he passed away.

Speaker 1 (01:59:43):
It was, Yeah, it was yesterday around two. But I
had heard that.

Speaker 20 (01:59:53):
They knew it was gonna that the Friday was one
of his last days. I had saw a thing on
the Brown's Countdown on the ABC affiliate here in Cleveland
that of Nathan Zigera talking and he said like he

(02:00:21):
went in and visited visited him on Friday, knowing that
was probably going to be the last time he ever
saw Jim.

Speaker 4 (02:00:32):
Well, there was a thing. A week or so ago,
there was some sports presentation that they wanted him to
come in on, and they said he was just too
weak to get there. So when I heard that, I
knew the end was. You know, with what he had,
I had a feeling it was wasn't going to be long.
Let's play this clip anyway, you'll all remember him. Name

(02:00:56):
is Jimmy Donovan. Such a shame for such a break man.
We'll be right back.

Speaker 5 (02:01:03):
Some of the most exciting games I see aren't always
at the coliseum, but right here.

Speaker 29 (02:01:08):
In the local schools.

Speaker 25 (02:01:09):
For all the credit in the world of the Browns.
The opening night of the Cleveland Auto Show, and it's
nice to.

Speaker 10 (02:01:13):
Be with you.

Speaker 5 (02:01:13):
I'm Jim Donov. Good night with the quarterbacks. Bernie kozars here,
Brian Sipe is here.

Speaker 15 (02:01:18):
So here we are to talk about it all in.

Speaker 4 (02:01:20):
A timely fashion.

Speaker 29 (02:01:21):
We say goodbye to our dear friend, Jimmy. Jim Donovy
was the eyes and ears of Cleveland sports for forty years.

Speaker 4 (02:01:30):
What was the feeling waiting on the sideline, waiting on
the sideline for the last drive?

Speaker 25 (02:01:36):
What a great, great moment. And there it is in
front of another usual packed house. Here at Jacobs Field.

Speaker 5 (02:01:43):
The world championship city resides right here in Cleveland and
the voice.

Speaker 29 (02:01:48):
Of your Cleveland Browns for a quarter century, starting when
the team returned in nineteen ninety nine.

Speaker 25 (02:01:54):
Steeers Browns, glad you're with us?

Speaker 4 (02:01:57):
Steps up, But it's Kurtney Boon again. I had tricked
for Courtney Brown the.

Speaker 5 (02:02:04):
Steelers with four seconds of trying to get the field
goal team on two.

Speaker 3 (02:02:08):
Run, they won't get the ta.

Speaker 7 (02:02:13):
He's so the thirty twenty five, twenty fifty ten five touchdown,
Nick Shop.

Speaker 29 (02:02:20):
It is more than fair to say Jimmy has seen
it all.

Speaker 25 (02:02:24):
How does it feel to be here and winning?

Speaker 10 (02:02:26):
You know this?

Speaker 25 (02:02:26):
Phil is wonderful.

Speaker 29 (02:02:27):
Yeah, he grew up in Boston and Doctor Stopson, Vermont
and Minnesota. He started here at WKYC in nineteen eighty five.

Speaker 25 (02:02:37):
And the Calves had one heck of a season From
the Coliseam.

Speaker 29 (02:02:40):
I'm Jim Donovan, a curly haired sportscaster who loved covering
the Browns.

Speaker 5 (02:02:45):
But what's it like these last few hours countdown ours
for of the players? Well that's the subject of tonight's
Golick Report, Indians. But they couldn't get it done and
it's Gey Wall there at the Ken Domers.

Speaker 25 (02:02:57):
You're getting cap calves.

Speaker 5 (02:03:00):
Now, I knew there was something I loved about this
brand new Gundarita Whip the cams. I'm Jim Donovan for
Channel three Sports.

Speaker 29 (02:03:06):
And everything in between.

Speaker 25 (02:03:08):
Here at Rady Stopping Shop in Parmer with our two finalists.
First of all, let me ask you both. Are you
all set to go? I'll set Are you all sickerators?

Speaker 18 (02:03:15):
Sure?

Speaker 7 (02:03:15):
Am.

Speaker 5 (02:03:16):
We're at the rose Ball with my good buddy Brutus
buck Eye and we're set to.

Speaker 29 (02:03:19):
Go, including the Revco Marathon.

Speaker 25 (02:03:22):
I'm Jim Donovan.

Speaker 5 (02:03:22):
Going the distance with Channel three is our cruise, bringing
live race coverage from start to finish and the Soapbox Derby.

Speaker 25 (02:03:29):
Good afternoon, everybody.

Speaker 5 (02:03:30):
Today, a new chapter will be written in the already
rich tradition that is the All American Soapbox Derby.

Speaker 29 (02:03:36):
Jimmy also represented Northeast Ohio in the National Spotlight as well.

Speaker 25 (02:03:40):
Hi everybody, I'm Jim Donovan. I'm great to be with
Beasley Reed working.

Speaker 29 (02:03:44):
For NBC Sports covering multiple Olympics and the NFL. In fact,
Jimmy was right next to Chris Collinsworth for his first
game in the boot.

Speaker 5 (02:03:55):
Free Jim Donovan along with Chris Collinsworth. When this game started,
we saw a quarterback clinic bussing.

Speaker 9 (02:04:01):
Jim saves me so many times.

Speaker 20 (02:04:04):
Oh my god, I had no idea what I was doing.

Speaker 11 (02:04:07):
He was a pro.

Speaker 9 (02:04:08):
I mean he was legitimately a pro.

Speaker 6 (02:04:11):
He knew how to study, he knew how to work,
he knew how to get this thing done.

Speaker 29 (02:04:15):
But his dreams was always to be the voice of
a team. Growing up, he practiced into a tape recorder
calling Boston Bruins games.

Speaker 25 (02:04:25):
Thank you very much.

Speaker 29 (02:04:26):
That dream became a reality in nineteen ninety nine when
the Browns named him the team's radio play by play voice.

Speaker 5 (02:04:34):
Great stutter step he threw first out forty forty five,
fifty forty.

Speaker 14 (02:04:38):
Five, forty cron will you brun fair.

Speaker 5 (02:04:40):
Ghost Chub, He's of the thirty Tony Dune touchdown.

Speaker 1 (02:04:46):
Chip lovey up.

Speaker 29 (02:04:47):
Jimmy always cherished the most loyal fan base in all
of sports. It was clear he poured his heart and
soul into his craft.

Speaker 25 (02:04:57):
He's looking leapt down the field, firing.

Speaker 5 (02:05:00):
He's going for Landry Nobody els on the top of
a catch for a touchdown.

Speaker 21 (02:05:08):
What a catch point.

Speaker 25 (02:05:10):
Landry down the middle of Joker's got It. He's at
the forty forty five fifty. He's at the forty five
forty thirty five.

Speaker 16 (02:05:17):
He's probably one of the most energetic people I've ever met.
And besides that, he's a consummate professional. He always believes
in getting things right and doing it the best that
anybody has ever done, and he's accomplished that in his career.
I mean, Cleveland is very fortunate to have somebody of
his standard. And while the product has not always been
good on the football field, it's always been good in

(02:05:39):
the booths.

Speaker 29 (02:05:39):
With him, he was the ultimate professional who could always
turn a phrase with lightning quick wits.

Speaker 5 (02:05:46):
Good practice for the Bronx, excellent practice here at Channel
three today, Bob playing.

Speaker 30 (02:05:49):
With a bad Showlder, Okay, John, I'm shocked by Deacon
saying they should have played for a time, because no,
I mean, wonder.

Speaker 29 (02:05:56):
That capture a moment magnificently.

Speaker 25 (02:06:07):
That Caroline, thanks for coming in anyway, I'm exhausted.

Speaker 29 (02:06:15):
While always telling the truth, this.

Speaker 30 (02:06:18):
Is the worst loss I can remember the Browns ever
suffering since they've come back in nineteen ninety nine. The
Browns simply have never learned how to finish a game
they don't know how to win.

Speaker 29 (02:06:31):
Even though Jimmy was born and raised in Boston, his
home will always be right here in Cleveland. Jimmy, thank
you so much for entertaining, for making us laugh, for
everything you did.

Speaker 2 (02:06:46):
We love you.

Speaker 29 (02:06:49):
And we'll miss you.

Speaker 31 (02:06:51):
This television station really has given me just an incredible
opportunity to do so many things, and I just went
for it all the time.

Speaker 32 (02:07:03):
And it's just been an incredibly lucky town for me
to be with you for as long as we have
been together, and I just I really loved it.

Speaker 4 (02:07:27):
Just wow, not a dry eye in the house. Excuse me.
That guy will be missed. I you know, I've watched

(02:07:48):
the Browns for a long time. I remember Kasey Coleman,
Nev Chandler, but there was never really one that I saw.
I love the game so much as Jimmy Donovan did.
And it's it's kind of sad, see what happened anybody

(02:08:13):
else kind of comments before we wrapped this up.

Speaker 15 (02:08:19):
And they missed.

Speaker 3 (02:08:21):
What charisma the guy just he exuded confidence and passion
and you could hear it in every single call. I
remember being out on the road Dale's talked about driving around.
That was one of the things I would do if
I went to a music festival, for example, you know,

(02:08:41):
down and around Memphis occasionally if there was a Browns
game on, you know, traveling back from that weekend, I'd
be listening to Jimmy's call on the way home. And
so it was just it made made the ride a
lot easier even and the team was terrible and that
was more times and I'd like to.

Speaker 4 (02:09:01):
Count well he was. He was always straightforward with it
and if they stunk, he's that the teams thinks, that's
what that's what you I really liked about the guy,
you know, if if he was excited about something like
Chubb and then it was doing, it was happening. Anyway,

(02:09:25):
let's wrap this up. I guess we looks like we
lost Eric fly Off, really, but I think we're gonna
go ahead and wrap this up for tonight. I appreciate
everybody that's tuned in and what has watched us this evening.
Coming up next will be tomorrow night will be Eric's

(02:09:47):
Nino second show. Uh. Tyler Dmbergs, sorry about that. Tyler
Danberg's post for here tomorrow night or and his Uh,
with a n anosecond. That should be an aunt I've got.

(02:10:09):
I watched that Oios. You gotta watch iios taking the
last night out good that uh, that refereeing and that
thing with that them throwing that kid out for targeting
was that was some of the worst officiating college wise

(02:10:31):
I've seen in a while. There was no way that
should have been a target. Then it looked like it
because of the natural but the natural flow of that
targeting was not excessive. It kind of it kind of
drifted right into it and caused the target. And I

(02:10:54):
don't I didn't think it was flagrant enough to throw
the kid out for it. And half of a game,
half of the next you can't play for half the
first half of the next game, That is what it is.
I guess I'd be fighting that if I was just coaching,
because that just wasn't fair. But dan Burg and I

(02:11:17):
will be talking about that tomorrow night. You can bet
because I want to. I want to see what is
his ass at his access points? Says you know, I
want to see what his advantage point looks like. Sounds
like anyway, we're gonna go and wrap it up. JP,
you got anything else, add nope.

Speaker 14 (02:11:43):
I think we're all right.

Speaker 4 (02:11:45):
Mellie, I'm good.

Speaker 15 (02:11:49):
I think heaven, I'm okay to Dale. Mhm huh what
huh huh?

Speaker 4 (02:12:00):
Nobody wake me up?

Speaker 6 (02:12:03):
Boobies?

Speaker 4 (02:12:05):
Oh oh well, maybe hey man, we might be able
to help you out. I can find the damn thing
that's not it? Oh, there it is.

Speaker 15 (02:12:18):
Did you say boobies?

Speaker 19 (02:12:21):
What did you say?

Speaker 1 (02:12:23):
You say boobies?

Speaker 4 (02:12:26):
Yell'd you see boobies?

Speaker 16 (02:12:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 15 (02:12:29):
Ooies?

Speaker 1 (02:12:31):
I love boobies.

Speaker 4 (02:12:34):
You're welcome. How do I do anything for my crew here?
Almost almost anything except.

Speaker 21 (02:12:44):
You want cash?

Speaker 1 (02:12:45):
Or should we just go thank the monkey again?

Speaker 4 (02:12:50):
I think that's on that on that famous point, we
can exit on out of here, can of crumble our way?

Speaker 16 (02:12:59):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (02:13:00):
Like I said, tomorrow night, we got Eric coming up.
That'll take us to Saturday morning. We'll have.

Speaker 16 (02:13:11):
The uh.

Speaker 4 (02:13:13):
Four guys on sports podcasts, which I'm sure we're going
to be talking about some cowboys. We're going to be
talking about the Browns changes in that, which, by the way,
I think, well, since they decided to change this coaching around,
and I think that's why it worked better, we can
hope for more of that in the near future. But

(02:13:37):
I'm not gonna still box on that. So anyway, well,
then we come back to this show next Sunday night. Y'all.
Have a good week. We're planning on and we will
see you in seven days or quicker. Don't forget Wednesday night.

(02:13:58):
Wednesday night. At date, we're going to run the whole
of the whole hour of.

Speaker 1 (02:14:06):
War of the World.

Speaker 4 (02:14:06):
So and it'll be a nineteen thirty eight version. You'll
hear it just like people heard it. Then we will
see them and a good Flora. I want to say
good night.

Speaker 7 (02:14:20):
Yeah, I was about getting there. Good night everyone, have
a good week. Thanks for coming in.

Speaker 4 (02:14:28):

Speaker 3 (02:15:34):
Hey, if Dale is still there, I actually have a
question for him that that's been rolling around in my brain.
He had a couple of minutes.

Speaker 4 (02:15:43):
Let me get on the other side of.

Speaker 3 (02:15:46):
That's all right. I'm not going anywhere just yet.
