Gary Jeff Walker in for Willie 12-29-25

Well, Hello, two Day Heights, basking in the glow of another Bengals victory at the end of a season with nowhere to go afterwards against a lesser NFL team, but a win is still a win in the National Football League.

Congratulations Bengals on their blowout of Arizona yesterday at Pei Corp Stadium. Boy, the last nice day of the year too, unless you love you know, thirteen degree windshills and win guests of thirty or forty miles an hour, which is what we have today, Gary Jeff Walker in for Willie on this last Monday of the year, and our first guest on the last Monday of the year is producer and director of the documentary The Last six hundred Meters.

I'm doing well. Happy New Year to you to you.

Too, Oh, thank you very much. This was filmed obviously years ago and it's just been this documentary and it's just coming out. Now, tell me a little bit about the last six hundred meters from your perspective, since you were instrumental in putting it together.

Absolutely, well, let's call the last six hundred meters because the Special Force of Sniper says in the film, I don't make foreign policy. I just delivered the last six hundred meters of it, meaning what he could see through his sniperscope. And that's what we tried to do in

You mentioned the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, of which you were a CEO, and you were also co chair of the International TV Council there and the Senate confirmed you to serve in the National Council of the Humanities, which

To office, Well, he has defunded CPD, which means PBS and NPR. My other time, my most contentious time in the first Trump administration, as you said, was as the US Agency for Global Media, which oversees the Voice of America and the other international broadcasters. And President Trump has entrusted carry Lake with the job of reducing it to its statutory minimum.

And I agree with that.

Actually, I found these organizations to be tremendously biased. There are a case study in what happens with the administrative state when you have an unelected branch of government, essentially government bureaucrats acting as if they know more than the president, which they may or may not know more than the president. But he's elected by the American people and he needs to have the power to get his vision across in the time that he's president. If you don't like it,

They think they know better. They think President Trump what does he know about the media?

You know, he's just a sort of reality star where really journalists.

And they chose not to listen to me.

Or as the representative of President Trump. And I think that I have an important mission the Voice of America, which is to tell America's story to the world and counter propaganda from ora enemies like China and Russia and Iran. But they're not actually doing it in an effective way, and they're not responsive to the President. And those institutions need to be demolished and rebuilt from the ground up.

There are a lot of that across the government.

I feel like in a way the Doge action elon Musk separates were really not directed properly.

It was It's not just the waste, broad and abuse.

There's something wrong with unelected bureaucrats acting as if they know better than the president, whether they do or not. That's not the way democracy works. And that was a problem for me, and you can see it in my Wikipedia page which you reference where they at all, where they chose to reference all these facts of me from the Wash and Post of the New York Times and NPR and elsewhere. So then, which is a symptom of the problem itself. So yes, I think it's a tough thing.

A small case study in this kind of issue.

Oh, absolutely a microcosm of that larger administrative state that you spoke of and it's so odd you were fired or asked to leave your position two hours after Joe Biden took office, two hours And I don't remember any great uproar of people fight. You can't fire Michael Pack. He's doing He's doing a great job. Nobody kicked and

That.

Therein lies the difference between right and left. I think, at least right now in this country. Would you agree with that?

I do agree.

I mean I had a multi year appointment which President Biden shows to ignore. And it's true he fired me or asked me to resign within an hour. I think of his inauguration. Politico re appointed it, reported it as the first foreign policy actor of the Biden administration, which I guess is kind of an honor. I'm more important than Russia or or whatever other foreign policy challenges he had,

In America, where a contract is supposed to be a contract.

That those people, those heads of those networks were told by their lawyers that they had right on their.

Side, but that would never be.

It would take them years to win, cost them a huge amount of money, and just wasn't worth it. So they were illegally fired, even more so than myself. And yes, there was no uproar. It was not even covered. It was not even covered. That's such a small you know, sin wasn't even covered in right leaning media, let alone and left leaning media.

You mentioned Doge, and the first big Doge cuts were to USAID, which I totally agreed with, since a lot of this money seemed to me from the outside looking in as just a giant money laundering organization where the money was supposed to go to whatever transgender turtles in Turkey too, and it somehow found its way back into the pockets of people here in the United States. I hope that they unravel all of that and that no

That's well put that he you know, Isis remains a threat. And people sometimes think of Donald Trump as a neo isolationist.

I don't think that's really right. He's been consistent.

He's, as you say, he opposed ISIS in the first term, and he they're not defeated and he's opposed to them.

Now. It is true that, you know, we want to.

Avoid getting sucked into an endless land war, as we've done before, but I think Tom Trump is very sensitive about that, so I supportive of those attacks on ISIS. Another documentary we're working on with the Wall Street Journalist about withdrawal from Afghanistan, which you may remember ended with a suicide bombing on the part of ISIS k that it killed thirteen Americans and hundreds of Afghan citizens. So I think these these you know, Radical Islam remains a threat.

So I'm supportive of that.

As you mentioned in my film The Least Six and the Meters, it is really a case and what happens, how challenging these counters surgencies can be when they become extended land wards, and I.

Think people should watch that and.

Be reminded of those things. We often reluctant to look back, but as they've gone too the holidays, I think we should. And I feel strongly that the veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars do not get the credit they deserve because people have mixed feelings about their war, but that doesn't take away from the heroism of the young men and women who fought them for us.

I was looking at my history notes for my program this past Saturday morning, Michael, and it was the anniversary in nineteen seventy nine when the Soviets toppled the Afghan government and installed their own puppet and then stayed in a slog for ten years in Afghanistan and then lo and behold ten years later. There we are locked in

And I mean, don't you think so. Don't you think we would have learned better from the example of the Soviets. Oh, well, we're just going to do it better than they did.

No, we didn't.

It's hard to learn these lessons. As you point out, they are tough to learn. We could have got in, tried to kill.

The sound the lot and gotten out. I mean, that would have been the perfect solution.

We think it's clear in retrospect there are other times when we could have gotten out too. The way we finally withdrew was I think a tragedy. But yeah, lessons from war are tough to learn. I don't know how many it takes. I think it's worth That's why I think it's worth watching our film Lessons to Remeters. We don't make politically, we don't comment politically.

We just show the battles. But you can see the impact on people fighting, of shift and changing political goals from Washington. So yeah, those are hard wars to fight.

I hope we don't get involved in a land war in Venezuela or anywhere else.

That's true.

So far, Trump has been pretty effective in the way he's been going at it, so he seems pretty conscious of not being sucked.

Into a long war with unclear goals. So I hope he has learned.

Of the infantry men that you interviewed for the last six hundred meters, how much have you followed up with them who are still around in present day?

Michael, Well, you know, sometimes seventeen years to get this film on the air, as I mentioned.

And now on Amazon.

And we had a screening in Washington where we invited all veterans that were in the film, and a large number came from around the country and it was really inspiring to see them. I mean, now they're actually middle aged. You know, a lot of time has gone by, but there remain the same, you know, the wonderful examples of American in these world men be came manhood, and you know the one the Marines, especially that we're there.

We're really as.

Gung ho as they were back in two thousand and four. You know, they are very funny. They are believers that if you give them a clear objective, you know they can achieve it. And they did do that when such objectives were given to them in Iraq and Afghanistan.

So I mean a lot of them have had interesting lives. Your time is done by.

But they're all of them proud of their service. There's not any of them that are, you know, extremely disillusioned or anti American or were bitter about it, which is surprising in a way.

How long is the film.

It's ninety minutes, and there are three battles, the first battle of Flujah in Marsh, then this against Sunni and surgeons in the north. The second battle is Najaff against Shiite surgeons in the south, and then back to the second attal Flujjah in the north again in November of two thousand and four.

And you know, these this film has great stories of heroism.

People have always watched and listened to and read stories of battles and war, from Homer's Iliad to War John Wayne and World War.

Two movies to today.

And that's because war really test men and you see their spirit and their their will and ones that suffer and difficulties. And you know, one of the reasons we made this film is because these battles are not just something there's a big focus on technology, but a lot of it depends on the heroism of these young men

You know, a brutal, vicious fight.

Not unlike what could have happened hundreds of years ago in a rocket or anywhere else. So, although technology is important, a lot depends on the valor of these young people fighting on our behalf, Michael, So there's a lot of that in the film.

Michael Pack the director and producer of the Last six hundred Meters with us, President of Manifold Productions, and I wish a great success with this, and I hope people who are interested in the bravery and the commitment of these people who fight on our behalf, so you can actually see what they were going through and what they went through. Michael, thank you so much for your time today and happy New Year.

Happy to hear to you. Thank you for having me on your show.

You got it, Joshu Philip from the Epoch Times is coming up. I'm Gary Jeff Walker in. This is the Bill Cunningham Show. And if you were you know that there are significant power outages in places like Mount Adams. Still my work from Duke on when that power could be restored. The high winds continue, the sub zero temperatures, or at least feels that way. We're at twenty one right now in Kenwood and much colder with the windshill

Joshua Philip from the Epic Times back with us, Joshua, how are.

You doing.

Doing well?

Thank you?

And yeah, getting close to the New Year's are getting ready for that?

No doubt? Truth under Fire. Tell me about the documentary and what you were trying about.

You got the name right, so thank you very much.

But yeah, it's so.

The documentary was started with that idea that I wanted to talk about the hip piece machine. There was a system in place and still is to first to defame people, to frame them for political purpose, to make people too afraid to step out. Then it docked them, it releases their private information. Then it organizes against them and TIFA people showing up the doors that have as people protesting their events, and sometimes leads to actual violence against them.

I don't know ten to maybe twenty times to one hundred times the applications for chapters of Turning Point USA at college campuses in the wake of Charlie's murder. You talked about this spiritual reawakening that is happening that is not being covered by the news. All the focus has been I mean today, this morning, there was a hearing as to whether there would be cameras allowed in the courtroom, and Charlie's wife, Erica, is campaigning for those cameras to

I think, I use.

Cameras are necessary. Yeah, I think the cameras are necessary because you know, you know, we're in an odd day and age where let's put a say, all information is mediated these days unless people can see it firsthand. And the unfortunate reality is a lot of the mediating voices

We got you. Let's switch gears here for a second. We'll get back to truth under fire, I promise before we're done here. How do you feel about the coverage of the obvious and looked over fraud in the state of Minnesota. They're suggesting as much as nine billion dollars has been defrauded from the taxpayers in Minnesota UH, mostly to UH these Somali organizations, Somali terrorists, and and lavish expenses for the people who stole the money from Minnesota taxpayers.

So my view on what's happening, but uh, is probably a lot different from you're gonna what you're gonna hear anywhere else. And I would say that my view is now slowly showing itself to be true. What you're watching in Minnesota is a test of prosecuting local officials who have allowed for migrant fraud to take place all across the United States. The Somali community is now being accused You mentioned of at least nine billion so the summer saying up to fifteen billion dollars in fraud. But the

What will that do?

That will probably get sim of those officials out of office, It'll make the entire political party look bad, especially ding to the midterms. They could put someone who in prison. Frankly, it will inform the American public of how badly they've been robbed by fraud. It will justify the deportations, it will delegitimize sanctuary city policies, and it could be the wedge that Trump needs effectively to justify, prosecute, and overturn a lot of the systems that's been blocking him from

Oh, I hope that's correct. As as a taxpayer and someone who's not participating in the fraud, I mean, yeah, well.

If you're involved in the fraud Gipogo, you know, the run while you can exactly. I hear Salia, I hear Samalia is great.

This time of here, it's a night and sunny, you know problem.

I'm sure. I'm sure illin Omar is just chomping at the bit to get back there. On another front, communist China is ratcheting up press You're on Taiwan again in response to the US putting the clamps on Venezuela. The oil blockade that President Trump has uh has instituted and China Communist China has always wanted to retake Taiwan. I think it's less likely they do with a president like

No, I think it's actually more significant. I think I think China, the Chinese Communist Party, might try to take Taiwan. They have a very small window before America rebuild its manufacturing base. Sijing teams made Advisor previously told him that if they want to if they want to take Taiwan, America needs to be involved in four wars including Taiwan. They wanted to war with Russia, a warre in the Middle East like think Youran, and they wanted to war

To at least take the Asia Pacific.

We have a very small window time to re establish our dominance, our order, because America is running circles around us. They don't have a wartime production. This may be our only chance, and I think they might, more so than ever before. They might try to do.

Something right now.

So twenty twenty six could be the year that communists China makes their move.

They might not have the ability to do it or win, but it might be the best opportunity they have because the window for it will will go away.

And we've seen some things kind of turn around in Latin America, haven't we uh in regards to Panama and the Canal, in regards to Venezua Argentina, and so there there is some pro American pro liberty presence in Latin America in South America to kind of counter what Maduro and Colombia and Brazil are doing, isn't there?

There is?

So in Brazil Lula Desulva, who's back in power, work together for deel Castro also to establish what was called the four alseal Paula, the form of sal Paula, and that facilitated alongside what Jabez was doing with also Castro. And and by the way, Castro was also i know,

But they need the regional allies.

But what Lula did was they built the four House Aupaula, which was a form of intergovernmental groups parties, even narco Terroristbally I think a shining panther Fark was part of them, a corich one to to facilitate what they call a pink wave, which was the socialist government takeover of most countries in the region between the late nineties and early two thousands and and a lot of that had to do with money, political strategy, the whole nine yeards. Drugs

It's a political tool.

If somebody runs against your guy, you have the cartels kill him, very simple. You win the election. The guy you had manipulates the law to clear the way for whatever the heck you want politically, and and and they used that effectively to push the US out of the region. The oil trade was kind of a way to spread the wealth of Venezuela to facilitate to to support the socialist governments taking power.

And if Trump cuts and if Trump is able to cut that off, then then they have you know, it's kind of like Iran by uh and that those are kind of inexorably tied together too. Iran and Venezuela. They are in that way because if you cut off the oil, you cut off their money supply and their ability to continue to to dominate in their regas.

That's accurate, Yeah, that's accurate. So they're not ideologically motivated. They're financial motivated.

You know.

The cartels are not like the Taliban where they're going to you know, die for gi Hot. They're dying because they want to make money. And so if you if you make the risk greater than the reward, their ideology is not strong enough to keep fighting as well as basically an oil country and then a drug country post the oil. The drugs are just a political tool for using corruption is a weapon, is a weaponized tool to create government power.

Joshua Philip, once again, you're brilliant. I'm glad that you're doing great work as an investigative reporter for the Epic Times and with your documentaries, the latest documentary Truth under Fire, the Framing of Charlie Kirk and josh Thank you and happy New Year, sir oh.

It is a pleasure.

Happy New Year, you bet you.

Coming up after one o'clock War in the United States in twenty twenty six, a guy who says it's prophesied Pastor Mark Bilts from Elshadai Ministries coming up after the news at one. I'm Gary Jeff Walker in this is the Bill Cunningham show Stone Marathon this year. Happy ye're here. Gary Jeff Walker is sitting in for Willie on this

Oh, I'm doing fantastic. I just love being on your program.

Well, I just love having you here. So first and foremost, tell me about this America at War book that you and I have talked about in the past, and it's twenty twenty four to twenty twenty.

Six right through twenty twenty six to twenty twenty seven. Actually it's all through this next year, so.

We are in that period of time. Are we already at war?

Oh?

Absolutely, we're at war. Of course, it always depends how you want to war. But I really see, and I don't know if you've heard just it's just come out a video where the Iranians are on the streets having mass riots and the Iranian government has begged Arab full Islamic Arab governments to come help them quiet this. So they're not as tough as they think they are. Something big could be happening.

This very weak right, but they have declared full out war on the United States, Europe and Israel.

And we already knew that.

To me.

Iran declared war in the United States in nineteen seventy nine when they took over our embassy, you know, sovereign soil, took American hostages and held them for four hund forty four days. That was a declaration of war that I don't believe the United States ever answered sufficiently.

Do you? You are absolutely correct, But they are Islamic terror us. There's a radical Islamis and of course you're moderate islamis As you heard just the other day, Somali land was recognized by the nation of Israel, and oh, my goodness, Tetter was all upset. Saudi Arabia is all upset that here's a Maslem nation that is a precative of Israel.

So how how does the Bible tell this? Because I know you use a lot of biblical prophecy in your predictions.

Oh. Absolutely, it comes down from Exodus chapter seventeen, verse sixteen. There was a nation that first attached Israel and they left Egypt called him Amelek, and God himself said he will have war with Amelek in every generation. Well, last generation was Hitler. This generation, the Amelek is Iran. The very word Amelek means a nation who chops up body parts toughs off heads, which is exactly what Hamas did back on October seventh of twenty twenty three.

And isis has been famous for doing the same thing.

Absolutely, that's that is the spirit, And I really believe prophetically this is the last battle with Amelek before the Messiah comes. We are definitely living in these last days, all right.

So, but like you said, it depends on how you want to interpret the word war there was there. There have been plots foiled, there have been plots perpetrated. Are these attacks just little battles in this war that continues that we're seeing the terrorist attacks in the light?

Oh?

I think so. I mean even right now, you have the left against the right, that kind of a war going on. You have the war against illegal immigrants going on. I mean, there's a lot of you know, civil so to speak, type of wars that are going on. We're seeing bulls. But I really believe the problem with the Nigeria thing that's happened. I don't know people know this, but not only is it a wan Christians, there's also a war on moderate Muslims. Over sixty thousand Muslims have

Okay, it wouldn't surprise me if it we're in Minnesota or Michigan when there's a large Islamic population. But if you say things like this, Mark Bilts, you're instantly cast as an islamophobe. You're instantly you're instantly portrayed as someone who thinks every Muslim is a terrorist. And that's not what you're saying, That's not what I believe.

But it is exactly I said that it's.

Muslims for Heaven.

Right, exactly. I mean Hitler killed lots of Germans that weren't Jewish, exactly.

I'm not an islamophobe at all. I am a phobia against people getting their hips toped off. Okay, that's what I worry about.

Not a big fan radical Islam.

And there's nothing wrong with being a radical islamophobe.

Yeah, no doubt, no doubt about it. So how do we how do we preserve ourselves in a time of war like this? How do we protect ourselves? How do we fight the battle that is coming or is already here.

Oh, that's that's a that's a great question because I think we have to realize it's more than a physical war. It's a spiritual war that's going on. It's a war between life and death. And this is where people have to see it. Well. Too many Christians back down. They're afraid to fight. And I really believe that this is the time when we really have to stand up. This is why the whole world bows to radical Islam because they're afraid. I'm not afraid. I'm almost died so many

Is not going to happen.

So I'm ready to do everything we can.

Uh Ephesians six ten. Tony talks about putting on the armor of God. And that's what you say, And it's not just a physical battle, a kinetic battle that you think of when a lot of people think of war, but it's a spiritual battle. It says, be strong in the Lord, in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand

There you go. And this is why the Church is settlements understanding that burst because they see the armor of God is some Roman soldier costume. It's always been cast that way, but you just wear spiritual warfare. I have in one of my books the armor of God really is the priestly garments. The priestly garments in Hebrew were designed for warfare, and the breastplate wasn't a Roman soldier's breastplate. It was the breastplate of the high priest for Heaven's sake.

So what else do you talk about in America war the book that I mentioned at the top of.

The interview, Yes, exactly. And this is why people need to get it now, because we're still going through twenty twenty six. I'm the only one on this planet who in twenty twenty three said that I Ran would attack Israel. In April of twenty twenty four, even mentioned a month and the day is the very day that I ran started this. But anyway, I'm saying there's going to be war here. I really believe you're going to see China attacking Taiwan next year. I think you could see North

Do do you think that, for example, the assassination of Charlie Kirk was a part of this war.

The spiritual warfare? Absolutely absolutely. The climate is changing, and I see some Christians as starting.

To rise up with all of this.

So I'm really see the spiritual environment has changed, and I think you're going to see it more, you know, in another week or so. Once twenty twenty six hits and people start focusing ahead, looking toward the elections and everything that's going on. Even with Iran and Israel. There is a total lunar eclipse coming up on Perum in March, and I believe that's another indication we're very well could see a war with Israel Iran in the US involved.

Today President Trump is meeting with Benjamin Nett and Yahoo. You talk about the physical kinetic wars that are going on and the battle that continues against Hamas. Why hasn't Israel been allowed to go ahead and just totally take out Jimas in Gaza? Do you think?

Oh Man?

Politics?

Politics? You know, And my concern for Trump is that he caves in and allows Turkey and Cutter to bring in troops because they're not going to rebuild Gospa, They're going to rebuild Moss and so I have a big concern that our States Department and our government may allow Hutter to come in, which Israel will not allow. So I just hope that Trump doesn't cave in the terrorists.

Do you think that it was a bad idea for President Trump to make deals with all these Middle Eastern countries to try and end this conflict with Iran and the further contract conflict with Hamas and Hezballah.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it as long as he stays within biblical guidelines. In my book, and this is what it's so important. What most Christians can be deceived by is the fact that King Solomon was a type of Antichrist, not Christ. He even was the first one who offered to Israel and half make a two states illusion. He was willing to give half of the cities in Galilee to Hiram, king of Tire, for Heaven's sake. Uh So Solomon made peace, Yeah, but he

So the wisdom of Solomon wasn't necessarily biblical wisdom, is what you're saying.

It was horrible. As a matter of fact, you do on revelation it says, here's wisdom. The number of his name, you know, is six six six. Well, guess what is recorded in the first King's four The amount of gold that came into Solomon every year was six six, six hundred talents of goals. There is a definite connection between Solomon as an Antichrist not a Christ. And in my I have several books, one of them decoding the Antichrist, or I talk about that.

All right. So but you're saying there are several Antichrists, there's not just one.

Well, yeah, and see the apostle John wrote in the Third John that all the Antichrist came from within the body, within the Church. People keep thinking that the Antichrist is going to be a Muslim. Now he's going to be a professing Christian. And I have a new book coming out with chrismon June called The Final Tyrant and explain how the Antichrist is going to be a believer, supposedly a fake Christian and so that's why the church is.

Going to be deceived.

Who would be deceived by a muddler Antichrist? For Heaven's sake, that's like saying, if you got one hundred dollars bill with itold a face on it, you would fall for it. How dumb?

Well.

I've always said that the devil won't be some ugly fire spitting beast, you got it it, It'll be a beautiful woman in a pair of American jeans.

No, they're very well good. But the key is they're going to want a two state solution.

That is, they keep talking about it, Yeah, keep talking about it, and this is that that that's never gonna work because no one side wants the eradication of Israel and the death of all Jews, and the other side just wants to live in peace. Those two, those two are not compatible.

Yeah, yeah, That's why they say, if Israel were to lay down their arms, it would be no more Israel. If i'm you know, if I'm lost down their arms, there would be peace. I just appreciate you and your knowledge of all of this. This is awesome, all right.

I really don't know anything. That's why people like you on.

Mark.

I'm I'm learning at the feet of the master.

Here.

Mark Biltz is pastor El Shaudi Ministries. Where can people find out more?

Mark esm dot us for Elschadi Ministries e sm dot us and they can go to Amazon and put in Mark Biltson. They'll see all the different books.

All right, fantastic. The latest one is America at War correct, Yeah, yes, sir, twenty four to twenty and you say into twenty.

Seven, oh, all the way through twenty twenty six. That what I'm saying, not at the beginning of twenty twenty six.

But through the end of the t Well what happens after that?

Well, I have other books, the Final Tyrant coming out in tune. The other thing that I just don't believe it or not. I've just written the entire New Testament in Hebrew. Oh wow, and I have it in Hebrew with the Hebrew transliteration, a first ever where people can learn to speak Hebrew through reading the New Testament. And then I made a lot of corrections from the King James. But what's amazing about it. I have QR codes through it,

That's wild, Okay, I'll look for that. Mark Belts pastor, Mark Built's, Billshaudi ministries eesm dot us correct.

Yes, yes, correct, and if you email me, I'll give you one of those books.

All right, thank you so much. Happy New Year. Maybe first student report of the day coming up as we continue, I'm Gary Jeff Walker and for Bill Cunningham on The Bill Cunningham Show.

Thank you, Thank you. College basketball. The UC Bearcats take on Lipscomb tonight out of Nashville. Hey, by the way, seven and the Bisons are seven and five on the season. They lead the a Sun Conference in the standings. Early on in the Bearcats need to get with it six thirty right here on seven, w all got.

That stands up to make damn excuses like I ain't ever gonna do it, Lipscomb, anybody that follows our program, It'll never happen.

Easy to pick a pissed off I am. It ain't ever happening.

I'm never going to make excuses, Mike, but I'll talk about challenges.

So don't get the two damn things confused. Okay, I was gonna say my my Vanderbilt Commodorees are undefeated, correct uh and Lipscomb has been one of their victims. So the the Bearcats better go ahead and take care of business tonight.

NKU is on the road up against Robert Morris Tonight's six point thirty on the project.

What else we got here, Let's see the step back to the NFL.

The Steelers have declined devoid dk Metcalfs guaranteed money following that two game suspension, so he will thus get his forty five million dollars in guaranteed doe. He will yes acorny to the Steelers, college football, Ohio State and Miami Hurricanes Wednesday night and the Cotton Bowl and Big D Dallas. The Cotton Bowl action of Wednesday Night'll be right here on seven hundred WLW at seven thirty. Also on Thursday, New Year's Day, we've got Alabama and Indiana at four.

Do you know, if you name it, we like to do it.

They If they had not reached this deal, the EHL players from the Cyclones would have been evicted from their apartments January first, could have been it could have been a big crisis that whole league could have folded, could have been homeless because they all could have been home. Correct, and not only them, but a lot of other teams. I know, but the Clones will be back in action Wednesday night against the Indie Field.

I think the.

Better pay uh more time off, right, Uh? And they to get better equipment, better helmets.

I guess. So I don't know.

I mean, but I think they get a twenty I think I think I saw something that the pay gets raised, like twenty percent, oh or something that raise not bad. I've been here for thirty years and never had a raise. Yeah, so you're a blind domb be fuddled fool.

Either as he well, they were already giving him half the station anyway. Well, that's true, you're right about that. It's wait, he's got a double wide in Florida. But so the AHL is back, All is well, and everybody's okay.

Sorr.

There you go segment. If you would get us out of the Studge report here, Gary Jeffery was on this date in two thousand and two.

Yes, Senergy Field at Riverfront Stadium was imploded in front of our eyes two thousand and two and nineteen eighty three, Yes on this state. Yes, the Bengals hired their new head coach, the one and only me, Sam Wish.

You don't live it Cleveland.

There you go right there, if you read I was gonna say it in honor of this Monday and a happy New Year, early, Happy New Year to everyone.

We leave you with the immortal words of the Stooge report.

Well, the next person that sees anybody throw anything onto this field, point them out.

I get him out of here. You don't live in Cleveland? Was set that one time?

Maybe this Sunday, Zach Taylor ought to grab the microphone and say that just an honor of Sam Wish. See if it happens. Probably not all right, you know, seven hundred w B fur Ball and I found it in between the couch cushions. There was some loose change.

Actually driving around because every time I seem to talk to him, he's in his car. I think he lives in his car. I'm not sure. The one, the only Andy Furman. You hear him on Fox Sports thirteen sixty every Sunday morning, also on Serious XM, and you also when I'm lucky enough to have an extra show, hear him on the Nightcap, which I'm planning on having Andy

You know?

I wasn't gonna go on with you. Honestly, I kind of enjoyed the introt every week to get Loman alonga but I listened to the segment's sport report, Yeah, and he missed the biggest breaking story that's going on what tomorrow night downtown Cincinnati. The Harlem globetrot is a coming

How do you like that the team that always gets beat by the Harlem Globetrotters.

Well, they last won in nineteen seventy one in Martin, Tennessee, one hundred to ninety nine. They've lost two thousand, four hundred and ninety six consecutive games, including two games last week in South Carolina.

But is is the Angelique proud of this record that.

Both of their last week? And since she's from Brooklyn, there was a story in last week's Brooklyn Daily Eagle, and she claims that there are many people that try out for the Trotters. As she did try out for the Trotters, they can be promoted from the generals to the Trottas. And I believe that she eventually will be a Harlem Globetrotter.

Without the Harlem Globetrotters, there would be no Savannah Bananas.

Is that true?

I agree? I agree.

I mean, the the baseball version of the Globals. I don't know where the Globe Trotters went.

Off the rail.

They were the biggest thing around, I mean, and I don't know if basketball is not as popular or they changed their their method of performing.

I don't know, maybe the audience, Maybe the audiences have changed. Dandy, did you ever consider that?

I think kids love that. I'm telling you, kids love to see that. I think they don't really play basketball much anymore. They stop and they do games, and they dance and they singing. Just play a game. Play the game the way We're Metal Lock played and Sweet Lou Lung Sweet Blue Dumb Bar played. They played basketball and they were really talented and they even if they had the truck shots and stuff like that. Now they stop every several minutes and it's not much of a basketball game anymore.

Really the hollerm Globetrotters were they were weren't they kind of the the brainchild of a Jewish man named Abe Saberstein.

Yes, Abe Stoprostine, Yes, and the and the team that basically they're they're a nemesis. I guess you say in the Washington Generals was formed by the one and only late Red Clots red Klotz.

Red Klotz sounds like a medical condition.

Andy, Well, I'm glad I don't happen then, really, so you you were actually just a fouting to help out? Could have said men, because really that's a big event and you know what, they got a heck of a tour. They've been around one hundred years, and I couldn't the Fincinnati they are two performances tomorrow, I believe at two thirty and like about seven o'clock at night, and honestly I believe they sell out both, a big drawing spot for the club.

I'm glad you said performances are not games, because they're truly really not games. They never work.

Yeah they are.

It's a it's a show, really. I mean, if you're just the basketblas of the Shinado, don't go. If you really want to be enter teams basketball wise and talent, and these guys have talent and women that talent. I'm excited about ball English. I haven't gone to see the Trontas in a couple of years now. When I worked at Saint Francis College of Brooklyn, uh, we were the Terriers at the time. We had a couple of guys who graduated from basketball and did play for the Generals.

So what you're saying, what you're saying you're is you've always associated yourself with losers. Yeah, so professionals.

Okay, what is that?

What does that make me? Andy game?

So betting on the game no one cares about.

Right.

The kid who was drafted by the Detroit Piston several years ago went over to play in Turkey and now he's going to play back to Balor again. I mean, come on, really, he's a pro. He's getting pro And that's another story for another day. I'll be to get into that.

Let's do that tomorrow night. The pros who are the the the athletes who are not student athletes, they're all pros. So what does it matter you get paid.

You're a pro.

But you know what, here's the deal.

If you're getting get eeled money, I mean you considered a pro, I.

Would say get money. I would say, I tell you what. We will go into a further depth tomorrow night on the Nightcap. How about that, Andy, I can't I can't wait.

I can't.

I can't either because you can't spell. I may have to call you.

I may have to call you from the cloak though, I'll go to they have to performance.

They'll do that.

You can't spell Furman without f You just remember that damn show Gary Jeffan for Willie. Last Monday of the year. A blustery day, to be sure, wind chills in the teams, winds up to thirty five or forty mile an hour GUS power out places. Gee, sounds like winter around the tri State. Anyway, we will brave it the best we

Jan great?

Thanks for having me, No, thanks for being had.

I love it.

Happy New Year, just ahead. Hope you had a good Christmas. I trust good Christmas.

Absolutely. It's going to take me all year to diet to get rid of everything I ate.

But it was great.

Yeah, my blood sugar levels are through the roof. I'm glad I don't have a doctor's appointment for the next five months. I got time. So tell me about us for a Warriors Foundation. What exactly you do to help veterans.

Well, many years ago, we found that there were a number of iMac infect thousands of veterans foundations that are helping veterans in certain ways, but they were focused on specific areas, and we decided that we wanted to be able to help the entire veteran community and most important to their families. Today, we've got about sixty percent of the US population has a.

Relative of a veteran.

But of course there are family members that are having difficulties, and so we wanted to be able to reach out to them, not only help them where they are, whether that is for food or work or in other ways, but also not just give them a hand out, but also give them a hand up. And so that's what the foundation is focused on for the past dozen years.

So I mean as far as making them self reliant instead of relying on someone else.

Basically that's that's absolutely correct.

So instead of just giving them a fish for a days, well.

Fish for life. So you've launched a music fundraiser, tell me how that works.

Well, as you know, I had written a number of books, but I've also written some songs many years ago. Some of them I wrote when I was in the Navy and recorded several one of them got picked up, never went anywhere, but I put them on a shelf and forgot about them. And my son actually introduced me to AI music production. So I want to stress that I wrote the lyrics and the tunes, but then decided.

To use AI to see if we could produce it that way.

Because we can't afford a studio band, and so we now have thirty songs across three albums that we're using as a fundraiser. So have some fun, some great music I hope people like, and it's a way to get the word out there, but also help our foundation help more veterans this year.

You say one song's even been optioned by an award winning artist for national release.

Yes, that's correct.

So a really hot artist here in California, Presley Aaronson. He's won a number of awards and also his latest album features Grammy nominee Jimmy Allen, and he also has one song with Russell Hitchcock, who's the lead singer Bear Supply on some of his albums. He's up and coming, and he is optioned one of the songs called Divided Lines, and so that will be put out by him here this next month.

I've got a friend who's a Nashville songwriter, published Nashville songwriter has several hits that he has either written or co written by other artists, and he sent me it's odd that we're talking. He sent me last week one of the new songs he's written, and he wrote the lyrics himself and had the melody down, but also didn't have time to find a band to get it produced, to demo it to other art to pitch it to other artists, and he used AI and it sounded really cool.

I was very skeptical when I started, too, and also foundationally felt that maybe AI could be an issue. But I I'm pleasantly surprised. But I think it's also very difficult to produce something of great quality unless you really know what you're doing. It's taken me about a year now to really understand how to do it, and I have quite a bit of AI experience. You have to understand how to prompt it, where the weaknesses, to ensure

Right in order for AI to do it correctly.

I've learned all this over the past year and so a lot of trial and error, but if you get it right over time, you can actually come out with something pretty cool.

Well, how did you go? And you wrote a lot of these songs, you said while you were in the navy. You've obviously always had an acute interest and some proficiency in music. When did the music bug bite you?

Will you?

Many years ago?

My father was in the Navy, and for one of my birthdays, when I was a young pup, he bought me a guitar and taught me how to play, and so that's when I got the bug. My sister also has written a number of songs over the years, and she also taught me some things. And I was in choir when I was in high school along with her, so I learned a little bit about singing. But I wouldn't call myself a Grammy Award winning artist by any stretch. But I did have a propensity to write stories, and

Well, by the way, there are a lot of Grammy Award winning artists that I wouldn't say I would give an a hole. So just because you're not necessarily a Grammy Award winning singer, that's okay. I myself have probably been responsible for writing or co writing about one hundred songs, of which ten or eleven I think are pretty good. I've never used AI, though it's been quite a while since I've done anything new. How do you think veterans

Well, we've helped thousands of veterans of the years, not only transition, but also through helping them in terms of finding work and small business owners to get their businesses off the ground and going. And what we found is that obviously we come from a a difficult situation in many cases, but we've learned disciplines, and we've learned how to follow orders, but we've also learned how to lead.

So yeah, of course they have leadership skills.

I mean when you're dealing when you're dealing with life or death, or you're dealing with the next big sales project. I think if you've got experience leading people through life and death situations, you can probably manage a sales pitch or a boardroom.

Well exactly.

And I remember being interviewed by folks over the years earlier in my career and they would ask me, can you handle stress?

I would laugh and say try being a navy diver for a day.

But I think better are uniquely positioned with AI because of that past experience, Whereas others who maybe don't have those kinds of foundations see it as fearsome. They don't understand how this might be able to benefit their job. They maybe think it'll take their job away. And veterans have learned to deal with that kind of fear and to say, hey, you know what, let's see how we can take that next hill correctly using AI. How can it benefit us? How can it ensure that we have

All right, Oh, now you just mentioned and this is the question that's been on everybody's mind that's still in the workforce. Which jobs, with your experience do you think AI will replace or enhance? I mean, it's one thing to enhance, but to replace that is the big worry a lot of people have, and mine included. I mean, they're doing so much with with audio and video. Now that you know, video didn't kill the radio star, but AI may. So what jobs do you think that AI

Yes?

Absolutely.

And one of the companies that was launched based on the science that I wrote about, it's called Herman's Science. It's all one word, Herman Science that provides junior tove AI training courses. And that's my recommendation to those who fee year for their jobs is to learn how to embrace AI. It's not going away, obviously, and there's not much you can do about what jobs are going to

To even coding.

Now, if you use those skills properly, you can not a keeper job, but get better jobs.

How long were you in the Navy and in what period of time will you?

Six years?

And during the Cold War, so not long before there wasn't a Cold War, So during that period of time I was in and served the board submarines as well, but also as a navy diver.

One of your best selling books that I was just kind of caught my eye here as we're talking, is a book called Spies of the Deep that you wrote without the aid of AI. I'm assuming the untold truth about the most terrifying incident in submarine naval history and how Putin used the tragedy to ignite a new Cold War. Tell me about that just for a moment, if you would, yes.

And that was written before AI had the scene right in the way it's being used now, So.

No AI used there.

But the prequel to that was the book Read November, which was more about the the Cold War, what happened during the Cold War and some of the top secret missions.

And so on.

Spies of Deep Is call it a sequel to that book, and it.

Is more about post Cold War and starting with the loss of the submarine Curse, which went down in August of two thousand and What most people don't know is that for a year prior to that, the curse went on, a number of missions got right up close to one of our US carriers.

And Putin used that to campaign.

He went from about two percent of the vote to fifty two percent plus of the vote within six months by campaigning on what the curse did and saying he was going to bring back the military and bring back

No, and they threatened to make it hot all the time, just depending on who's in office and who's rattling the saber. What's your latest book? Will you your most recent?

Yes, I'm now writing some business books and so my latest book is called Start with Who, and if you've ever read Simon Sinex Start with Why.

Great book.

This is taking that to the next level and it talks about business storytelling and using neuroscience in that area. Have a number of things related to veterans and also the military and how it's been used in the military in many aspects.

So that's the latest book. That's how to Start with Who.

How would you describe the music that you produced with the help of AI. What kind of genre would you say it fits into if it fits into any genre at all.

It's across number of genres, from rock to pop, a little bit of alternative rock. Actually wrote co wrote a couple of songs with my son, he's a little more in alternative rock. And then we have some country with a little bit of Christian overtones into that as well. Cool and some singer songwriter. One song I wrote for my mom after I went to the Navy, one song I wrote about the curse that submarine that I mentioned that went down, and one song about nine to eleven.

You say, this is a music fundraiser for US for Warriors Foundation. How can people help?

So the songs are not quite available yet. There's one song that is posted that you will be able to find in the next week up on iTunes.

It's called Into This Silent Night. That's the Christmas song that I mentioned, and we got it out for Christmas.

The rest will be available early to mid January, and you'll find them on iTunes, Spotify, et cetera, wherever you want to go and.

Really to learn more about it.

We're looking for sponsors right now, and that website is Music the Number four Warriors Music for Warriors dot org.

Music four Warriors dot Org.

Okay, you can learn.

More about the project there and we're looking for some sponsors, so need help there would be appreciated, and then shortly thereafter the songs will be available as well.

Okay, well, definitely, I wish you great success in the new year, and thanks for spending some time with us today. That's William Reid. It's US four Warriors Foundation. Music for Warriors is where you would find this AI enhanced music. Thanks man, have a great new year, take care.

Thank you and you as well.

All right. Fantastic stooge two on the way in moments. I'm Gary Jeff Walker. In This is the Bill Cunningham Show.

Pounds, Burrow throws, Cody four catches, he's down to the fifty.

And the ten the five.

Tackled around the three yard line almost a big man TD for the all time highlight Reel as Burrow threw it to Cody Ford and the wooly mammoth began running down the near sideline.

Hello, quiet, and I'm spokes I'm broadcasting.

God, you're very disappointed in Cody Ford. I mean he needs to learn to finish seg he should have crossed the golden one. Dude, I just need to get the ball. It's to the white tip there.

You know, some guys out of the way, but not enough. So that was a play of the game though. That was something that was something that was something to see.

Joe Burrow another nice game again yesterday Chase looked at another guy and thought, well, Cody Ford, here it comes right exactly and bingo.

Gary Jeffy Hastuotu reporters of proud service of your local Tamestar Heating and air Conditioning dealers, Tamestar quality you could feel in beautiful Milford, the home of one main gallery called Baker.

Bengals Up. They brought you by good spirits, winding tobacco and party town. Everything you need to ring in the new year with thirteen locations. Uh Bengals getting ready this week for the season finale against Cleveland. More tonight on Bengals Line Lance and Lapping Company at six o five here on seven hundred WLW. College Basketball, the UC Bearcats take on Lipscomb tonight at the fifth Third Arena, six thirty year on seven hundred WLW.

The Bisons This man, I ain't never going to be the guy that stands up and makes damn excuses like I ain't ever gonna do it.

Okay, okay uh.

The Bison's come to town out of Nashville at seven and five on the season David stands.

I remember when David Lipskin was an n i AA school. There you go, and they played all kinds of you know, Trebeca Nazarene or whatever on the schedule of the night. Ever since they jumped to Division one, they have made the tournament I think a couple of times a year.

KU's an Action tonight up against Robert Morris six point thirty on the Project. Going back to college football, the Bearcats and Scott Sanderfield have hired David Rowe as the team's new cornerbacks coach. He has spent the last two season in Rutgers and Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman, a potential candidate for the NFL coaching vacancies. He's returning to the Irish in twenty twenty six. Segman, did you see

If the Falcons win, there's a chance that.

That whole division, that whole division is still up for grabs between Tampa Bay and Carolina College football, Ohio State getting ready to battle those Miami Hurricanes Wednesday night and the Cotton Bowl and the football playoffs and the Cotton Bowl. Actually with the buckeyser right here Wednesday night at seven hundred across the.

Board, finish it off having guts.

No.

I like to know where Lou Holtz is right now, what he said about our team.

What he said about our team, I cannot believe.

This is a tough team right here.

We're proud to be from Ohio Pro.

Tell EHL and the professional hockey players at Union reaching a deal over the weekend, a new contract to five years. Players return to their teams today. The Clones missed three games due to the work stoppage, and they'll get back the regular season action.

So the players basically missed about six dollars and thirty five cents.

The Clones are back home Wednesday night on New Year's Eve. I wonder if they get paid any against the fuel.

I don't know.

Yo ho oh no, yo ho oh no. So I don't know, but Ehl's back in business. I ask you a question. You've seen the TV commercial where they're making fun of people who yell at the TV as if the players can hear them.

Right, it's a Geico ad or something right. That's always baffled me, and yet there have been times I've done it. You've got to admit you've done that before. Have you yield at the TV, at a at a referee, at a coach or something while you're watching game, as if they could actually hear you correct. Probably one of these days they will, knowing the technology we have as AI developed. You never know, that's true. You have that reciprocal back and forth. I don't know, Gary, Jeff, But good luck

Are you going to a big party on New Year's Eve to ring in the New Year's seg man?

No?

No?

What do you usually do nice and quiet at home? Yeah? Yeah, I mean, do you drop a ball or anything?

No?

The Ladies back list?

Do you dance with.

No Jeff Brantley, No, do you dance with Denise to Guy Lombardo at midnight? Yes?

Down the hallway of our home, right into bed? Yeah no, no, no, you're into the living room. Do you stay up for the New Year? No, that's a good question.

I don't know yet.

That's a very good question. Well, probably both asleep. I got about seven, So there you go. Okay, segment, we'll get us out of the studge report. Gary jeff An honor of a what was a warm day now a cold day. We leave you with the immortal words of the Stooge Report.

Seriously, anotless monkey could do your job.

Okay, segment, Happy New Year, brother, name to you say everybody, We'll see you soon.

All right?

Seven hundred w lw Oh wait a minute, we got somebody else on the line here. Who is this? Oh it's the wild Man.

That's me.

Hi, wild Man, you're on the air. What's going on? Don't worry, You're safe?

Well happy but latest sixty fifth birthday, my man?

Well, thank you very much.

I wanted to be part of your party. I mean if in fact, I would have probably him and came up to the studio, but I ran into some cell phone problems that almost caused the city to be in a mass panic.

Well, I'm sure you not having a cell phone would cause great pandemonium all over the tri state. Wild Man, there's no question.

It did with my son and my friends because they didn't know they could.

They didn't know what was going on.

I mean the Hamilton County sheriffs, three of them showed up here at my house.

I heard about that.

Yeah, they were doing a welfare check because nobody could get ahold of you, including me last week.

Right, yeah, yeah, but all is well got a brand new phone. It works great. Now let's move on Bengals. Let's talk with me about the Bengals, because I know time is short here and I got to get in my case a goo because I got a major case of it. But the Bengals win yesterday was nice. Hopefully they can finish up the season with three wins in a row. So much for so much for the talk about the Bengals tanking to get a draft pick. And I know there was a guy that.

Sometimes you have on the air.

I'm not going to mention his name, but he went.

On and posted that the Bengals should tank the rest of the season to get a better draft pick, that Joe Burrow shouldn't play. And Joe Burrow yesterday threw cold water over everything and said, I like playing football. I like being out there with my guys quarterback. It doesn't it wants to play football.

It doesn't matter what order you pick in the draft. It's drafting the right player for your team that's available. It doesn't matter if you've got the first pick in the draft or the fifth pick or the eighth pick, which I guess is where the Bengals are right now. I wanted to ask you before you go into any more diatribes because I'm hoping that we'll have a double dose of the Wild tomorrow on my nightcap. But so say you don't want me there, you don't have to

Do you do that?

Wild man?

I yell at the announcers like John Sadsack won't shut.

Up, but they still can't hear you.

I know, I know, I think I know you probably do it. Everybody doesn't. Everybody doesn't, and if they say they don't, their liar, they're liars.

I'm doing a lot. I'm doing it less and less as I've come to realize that I don't have a smart TV that's got a microphone that's going to go directly into their booth as they're calling the game.

Well, a lot of times I'll just comment they'll say something stupid, like the hands team is on the field and just waiting for them to say that, because that's that's part of their vocabulary. I go, really, really really thanks for telling me that. Or you know, they're down by five points and they'll say a field goal doesn't help them, Like, oh, thanks, thanks for that information. I couldn't add Without you, guys, I'd be lost.

Yeah, but you have you ever have you ever just yelled run run run? Come on you dummy, ron? What do you stump?

No?

No, I never do that. I've never done that.

No, go ahead, go ahead, No, it's all right. My only other question for you, wild man, something I've always wanted to know because you often talk about a case of the goo.

Now do you order this gou online? Is it delivered right to your house? Can you buy gou at a brick and mortar store or at Walmart or anywhere else?

How does the goo come to you? Wild man?

It comes inside you. It comes inside, It builds up inside the human body, and that gets to a point where you just got to release the goog?

Can you can you actually define what the goo is? Because I've always wondered.

It's been a little a little, a little unhappy, a little angry a little mad. So goo is angry, really mad, maybe really mad. When you get a major k of the goos, you really.

Mad a lot of anger in that particular Ye.

Have you ever had just just just just blame o?

Yes?

Have you ever had just a minor case of the goo? Does it always uh develop into a large tub of goo?

I've had a minor case of the gou, but usually it develops into a major case. Well, what I've got a major case, but I guess I'll save it for you for tomorrow.

Well, no, we can. We can actually tease the gou that you will deliver into the tries like the tri State needs more goo?

Uh?

You you have a case of the goo. About the reds Hall of Fame.

The Red Hall of Fame for inductees, I have a major case on who got in and who should be in? Which is a joke and who shouldn't be in? I mean that the veteran of the Red Hall of Fame is a great you know, is a great organization. They do so much with the community as a great museum. Well let's the Cooper's down. Ain't nothing better.

Let's go through the picks just real quick, and you can elaborate expound upon that tomorrow night, if you'd like Brandon Phillips, yes or no?

Oh?

That was that was that was a no brainer.

So there's no gu about BP.

No I voted for I voted for Brandon Phillips.

All right, sweet Lou, Well, that was by the.

Veterans Committee and that was that was a no brainer too. I mean we didn't know who the Veterans Committee was going to put on there, but Lou Panela. I mean he had a winning record, he won a World Series.

Okay, so no, come on, man, no gu with with Lou.

I mean like Dave Bristol's in the Reds Hall of Fame. Now while he never won a World Series or repennant with the Reds, he did. I think I have an overall winning record as a manager, but you got to put Lou in there. Aaron Harang absolutely not losing record e r a of over four. I mean you're putting a guy with a losing record.

Into the Reds Hall of Fame, all right, Reggie sam.

That's the biggest joke. Can you tell me one thing, Gary Cheff, that Reggie Sanders did and you remember him poor other than fighting Dennis Martinez or Pedro Martinez. Can you tell me one thing he ever did?

I'm sure there was some timely hit, some some stab in the field he made that saved an inning, I'm sure.

Maybe, or to be in the Reds Hall of Fame. I mean there was two seasons or he only played eighty one games. Two seasons he only played eighty one games. He hit one hundred and twenty five home runs?

Whoop he do?
