I get asked all the time, how does invisible airwaves crackling with life on a Saturday morning from

the sounds of salesman, here's Teddy Lee. That's me, oh somewhat obtrucier. Yes, it's the spirit of the radio on the radio on a Saturday morning, six seventeen at seven out of WLW and Gary Jeff Walker on a fifty thousand wont blow torch terrestrial signal everywhere everywhere around the world on iHeartRadio. And here we are and we're going back to the future with our friend old radio. Rick. Good morning, Rick Washburn. How are you today?

It's doing great, Gary Jeff, And hey, you've got hopefully twin d excers this morning from the same neighborhood. Oh really, the Jewel Clock radio I mentioned a few weeks ago should be a new listener named John the Pilot. We're going to release. That's what we're gonna call him. That's his radio and hopefully he's tuning in this morning. Meanwhile, meanwhile, I am listening to you on a Crosley one oh six CP console from nineteen forty six,

a three ban am shortwave with a pull out phonograph underneath. This is a giant console and when I say giant. It's taller than the Zenith offerings, wider, deeper, and has a what I would call a huge round dial in the middle of it with ten tubes. It is a pink tailor with a big speaker. And I'll go to the catalog and say that it uses flounting jewel tone system with Master tone control. What it goes through a jebty. You hire marketers to describe the radio. So describe that radio again.

It has what from the catalog? It uses a floating jewel tone system with Master tone control. It was very rare in nineteen forty six. I'm pretty sure it was a knob that you turned like Bob in Marketing said, now, we can't go with that knob. No, well, I mean, you know, you've got to embellish the knob a little bit. That's what I've always been told. Anyway, And I have found no floating jewels

inside this radio. I will say that no ex fact. If you find a floating jewel, please send her back to nineteen eighty nine, I will, okay, without hesitation is a better fact. Well, that's that's nice. So who belongs to this radio? Or is this yours? Or is there somebody that you're working on this for, and what have been the challenges in doing that if any. Well, it's out of an a state and it is being redone so that it can be sold to help benefit the estate.

Okay, good. And it was a pretty typical rework inside of all the old wax paper ambassadors that gave up just due to old age. The cabinet. Marie had to work her magic on the veneer a bit. And other than that, the uh, that huge dial actually it it takes quite a bit of torque to uh to turn it, and there was a lot of LUBRICANTSU that one this this thing is espoused. Is this what kind of tuning marvel? And it takes a lot of effort to turn the dial.

Excuse me, It's just a very big round dial and the pointer is actually a very heavy mechanism oddly enough, and so and they did a lot of gearing in there, so there's a lot of moving parts and I just had to use a lot of a lot of different oils to uh get it freed up to where it would keep turning. And of course the catches. Anytime you lubricate something, the oil is going to drip down on this stuff.

You probably don't want it to drip onto that. Take part of it apart, and you stick your greasas that would stay there so you're not having to grab a wrench to turn the tuning of Yeah, I've I've ruined more than one Panasonic transistor with U with sunbathing oil. There's no question about that. Yeah, yeah, Please please make a note of it. All right, Rick, have a fantastic weekend. Thanks for checking in and DXing the program as all was old Radio Rick at gmail dot com if you'd like to get

in touch with Rick Washburn. We move on. Let's talk about Scott's loan. When doy you listen? I like to listen while I'm walking the dog. That sounds like fun. I like to listen to his show while I'm in the steam room. Oh I might try that one. I like to listen to a show while I'm at work because it drowns out the sound of my idiot boss. Not a bad idea. I listened to his podcast when my husband is watching one of those stupid Star Wars movies. I guess anytime

is the right time for Sloaney. You got that right. Scott'sloan Monday morning at nine on seven hundred WLW and check out his podcast on the free iHeartRadio app. Homecoming at NKU is right around the corner.

appointment of all things, with his seventy eight year old girlfriend. But we mourn the toothless Man, and that'll be enough of that for the rest of the show more than likely unless some other character, some of their odd ball character from an iconic movie dies. I think that's our entertainment news. I'm just letting us breathe the moment, the musical moment of Zen on the Saturday Morning Jim Lebarma, the Music Professor, will be back at seven thirty five,

Doug and his wife Angie have have been some has some experience traveling to exotic locales like Cancun and a certain resort

and the Dominican Republic and all of that. And so uh they they regaled Darren, the owner of Brookies, with the stories of the lamb chops.

The medical providers that Proactive Men's Medical Center offer that rain turns into a morning wintry mix tomorrow for many of us, Otherwise mostly cloudy on Sunday the high forty and as we get into the week, Sunday clouds in forty one and more showers coming in this coming Tuesday. But at least it's not minus ten seven hundred WLW Sports Liam Dominson give me the

lowdown. Man. NFL Conference Championship Weekend two games tomorrow. The first game is between the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens. The Chiefs travel to Baltimore, where Pat Mahomes will play his only second true road playoff game and Lamar Jackson Ames playing his first Super Bowl kickoff? Is that three pm? Yeah? How did that first road playoff game workout for MAHOMEE worked out pretty well.

It got the win, and even though the Buffalo kicker missed the kick, I think we all know what probably would have happened if you give the ball to Pat Mahomes with under My favorite part of that was texting Scott Sloan, who was in Buffalo at the game, freezing to watch another wide Right the NFC game is everybody can clue that San Francisco is just going to roll over the Lions. Maybe not so fast. Yeah, and San Francisco's a seven point favorite. Too. Se Vegas thinks so as well, but Detroit

Lions travel with Santa Clair to play the San Francisco forty nine ers. Jared Golf looks to return to a second Super Bowl, and former mister irrelevant brock Party looks playing us first. That kickoff is at six point thirty, and you can listen to both games right here on seven hundred WLW. Do you think they should do a doubleheader or one game Saturday and one game Sunday At

this point, I really don't care. It would be nice to have one of the games this afternoon so I could take advantage of that working the bar and have something for people to watch besides me. But no, I think it's fine that they do it on Sunday. Get us back into a Sunday frame of mind. I believe that God intended all NFL games to be played at one pm on Sunday, afternoons Eastern time, that is, and all of this other mess the Thursday night, even the Monday night stuff Sunday night.

Now I confine it to Sunday at one o'clock. They should all play at Sunday at one o'clock. And you know, for West Coast teams home. That's a little bit early, but that's all right. If they lose, their fans have more time to drown their sorrows the rest of the day. Well, your bar paint's happy. No, that was a great answer. The bar patrons will be happy.

Hi, I'm Henry Winkler, our sage, oh ed on a Saturday morning with a pithy phone

calling news of the week. It's Steve from Edna. Good morning, Stephen, Good morning Gary, Jeff, News of the week. Martin Luther Biden recall he started the civil rights movement. According to Joe, is contemplating federalizing the Texas National Guard in the controversy over the razor wire installed by Texas, which barrier the brown Shirts and DC want taken down. Let's see, when

was the last time a president nationalized state guard. I'm thinking it was Dwight Eisenhower, a Republican, federalizing the Arkansas National Guard in nineteen fifty seven when Democrat Governor Orville Faubas wanted to use his guard to stop young black citizens from entering Little Rock Central High School. A Republican president is trying to secure the right of black American citizens to attend a public school, and a Democrat is

trying to stop them. My goodness. Well, let's fast forward to twenty twenty four. Currently, a Democrat president is trying to give rights to a cabal of criminals crossing the US and Texas borders indiscriminately, and a Texas Republican governor is trying to secure the right of Texas and the United States to defend its borders and to protect citizens who are here legally. That's you and me,

fascinating. Who to thunk that? Now for fun and games on the political front, what is Nicky Haley to do to light a fire under her dying campaign to get the Republican nomination. Well, let's take a page from Ronald Reagan nineteen seventy six. Trying desperately to overcome Gerald Ford's narrow lead over him at the Republican National Convention, he announced, without being the nominee, that his choice for vice president was Pennsylvania Senator Richard Schweiker. The gambit did

not work. Reagan lost that nomination by a percentage point at the convention. Fast forward to twenty twenty four. The one person in the world whom Hayley could announce as her vice president running mate who would guarantee a November victory for the Republicans would obviously be Taylor Swift. Yes, Time Magazine's person of the year, and just in time, Taylor will turn thirty five years old December thirteenth and thus be constitutionally qualified to be sworn in January of twenty five.

Who the heck else on this planet can stop an NFL playoff game broadcast mid game when her boyfriend Travis Kelsey scores a TV for Kansas City, the camera goes directly from the end zone celebration to several minutes of Taylor's swift, to the joy of fans everywhere who suddenly don't give a ratspitute about a silly ass football game. As VP, Taylor can still do all of her concerts,

don't sweat it. Heck, Commie Harris is our borders are and she's never on the border, and nobody knows or cares what the hell she's actually doing. No Taylor Swift. Speaking of spots, former Bengal Chris Collinsworth gets the Dumbass Award for this week. Following the Tampa Bay loss to the Lions. Chris now a talking head, was ecstatic. He says, this is great. What we have left is legitimate teams, not cinderellas. Ooh well, in case you're not into football, sports speak. He's saying, this is

where sindereality conflicts with legitatism. If what you say is true, Chris, why am the hell have something like fourteen teams in the playoffs? Let's see, only eight of them can be divisional winners, right and therefore legitimate. The other teams, by definition have a chance to go all the way and

become cinderellas. That's bad? Gosh? Could it be the fans find this more interesting than say, oh, I don't know, we could just have the two teams with the best records at the end of the season go directly to the Super Bowl. Yeah. We certainly wouldn't make a crapload of money on that system, though, would we? And money is what sports is all about, isn't it, Chris? It pays your checks, doesn't it. We've got what seventy teams coming up in marsh Madness. You could have

lost a ton of games and you can still get in that tournament. So how many legitimate teams are in there? Chris? Recall several years ago when a number sixteen seed beat a number one? Hell? Was that a thrill? Were you complaining about that? Was anybody? Hell? Virginia was the victim. They said nothing. Well, they didn't have to the next year they won the tournament. By the way, Chris, you were a big fan of Black Lives Matter? Are they legitimate? Sorry? I couldn't resist

clout. I got this kind of figured out, Gary Jeff. In terms of the Super Bowl, there are about two hundred players still left out there on the four teams they're still in it. Who is the one player you wouldn't want to bet against? So I'm thinking ninety eight percent of the people are going to say it's either Lamar or it's Patrick. Well, I don't know. Maybe it's a question of who bundles better, and Patrick, as

you know, bundles better. Take care of yourself man. By the way, Section one, Article one, Section ten, clause three of the US Constitution says that this is pertaining to the current battle between the Biden administration and

the State of Texas protecting the sovereignty of their border. No state shall, without the consent of Congress, lay any duty of tonnage, keep troops or ships of war in times of peace, enter into any agreement or compact with another state or with a foreign power, or engage in war unless actually invaded or in such imminent danger as will not admit of delay. In other words, there's no time to waste. That's exactly what's going on in Texas and

in her country. We are being invaded not by Mexico, by Honduras, but the entire rest of the world, and it needs to stop now. Food for thought, don't eat too much. Six fifty five at seven hundred WLW.

hundred WLW. Sucked in with kloud's forty one degrees right now, the radar is clear seven o six now. Our next update at seven thirty on Sandy Collins on news Radio seven hundred WLWA News twenty four hours a day, News Radio seven hundred WLW. Jeff Weilerhonda dot Com ind to another hour of the Saturday morning edition for this Saturday, January twenty seventh, twenty twenty four. All almost for the first month of the new year. It's crazy fast,

Gary Jeff Walker, with you, GJ. Dubbs, And my pleasure as always to take the reins and get you into the weekend, and always my pleasure to talk to environmental engineers. Steve Shulty. I see trees so green, resist I see them blue following you, and I think to myself, what I wander battling the climate cultists and giving you the real scoop on the environment. And here he is. Good morning, mister Shulty. How are you? Good morning, mister Gary Jeff Walker. Deserve as usual? Yeah,

me too. So anyway, Uh, just like the swans come back to Capistrano and the buzzards return to Hinkley, Ohio, the oysters are back in Chesapeake. A yeah and a uh. Report from the Washington Post of January twelfth, And in honor of those like yourself, Gary Jeff who loved

the bi valve mollusk. I love I love a bi valve mollusk. There's no question ever, It's been on the way for quite actually a long time to restore oyster population in Maryland's part of the Chesapeake Bay and the tributaries, and the annual Fall Oyster Survey of last fall indicated that the region is home to quote remarkable number of young oysters, reported the State Department of Natural Resources.

The trend shows that the water quality and the Chesapeake Bay is improving and will likely do so as oysters, which have a natural ability to filter the water and eat the algae that is linked to nutrient pollution, continue to recover soul. It's wonderful. There is it gonna Is it gonna make Is it gonna make the price of oysters go down? That's the question. I really

have, Steve No, but not so good for the environment. Actually, this has been reported by Fox News January twenty four, the headline New Jersey's bag band meant to protect environment backfires at are staggering what rate. The research was done by Fredonia Custom Research, a business research division of for Market Research dot com, and the study was published earlier this month and back in twenty May twenty twenty two. The stay of a New Jersey band single use bags

plastic for large sales grocery and sver so and so forth. So instead shoppers had to purchase either reusable bags or reuse ones that they have previoubly done. So it didn't take long until that shoppers started complaining grievances to the local media that the reusable bags were stacking up in their home due to repeatedly purchasing renewable at the grocery store or due to home delivery services using new reusable bags after

each delivery. So what happened? Instead of its intended impact on the environment, the reusable ban has actually backfire. Plastic consumption in the state tripled, with New Jersey as previously consuming fifty three million pounds of plastic before the band compared to one hundred and fifty one million pounds after the Yet, for those who care, greenhouse gases from these plastic bags has soared. No. No, So if they banned plastic bags, then how has the consumption of plastic

actually gone up? Because the UH the reusable bags contained about fifteen times more plastic than single use and people are only using them two or three times. And the study reported that in order for it of a positive impact on the environment, the bags have to be the reusable bags have to be used a minimum of sixteen times, and the report does not include the chemicals and energy that you have to use to periodically clean these reusable bags. Because as you

use them, dangerous bacteria builds up inside. Right exactly, I've heard this, and so your water consumption and energy consumption actually go up because you've got to wash these or or as we say in northern Kentucky, wash these. But yeah, I mean it's just more insanity. I always say, give me a good ghetto tumbleweed anytime. All right, thanks, Steven, have

a good weekend. Seven eleven at seven hunderd WLW. Meanwhile, in an encented castle, a beautiful woman named Beauty is being kept by a beast. I mean, miss singing candles and teapots. We come stupid. That's a cartoon. Oh, I'm sorry. We listen to Eddie and Rocky. They're funny. You should see the beast's nostrils flair when he laughs. Aren't you afraid? No? I like it here. I've got Eddie and Rocky and

this girl loves a guy with a hairy chests. Today and Rocky give your day a fairy tale ending Eddie and rock Monday afternoon at three seven hundred WLW at First Date Bank. We believe in treating people well, and we've been doing just that since eighteen eighty four, when lots of things have changed over the years. Looking after your health, looking out after your health, and

then looking after your health. It's our job here on Saturday mornings at this time when we're usually visiting with Rocco Costelano, a great personal trainer and biohacker. He knows all of the minerals and the molecules you need to have a more complete, healthier life, and he shares them with us on a weekly basis, and sometimes on the Nightcap program that I do on Monday and Tuesday

evenings. If there's not a college basketball game, which I do have two outstanding nightcaps, warm it up in the bullpen, ready to go for the week ahead, and Rocco will be a part of one of those discussions. And part of that discussion with Rocco, just a little preview, we call it a tease in the business, is that it's all right if you want to be vegan or vegetarian. He doesn't mind that, but you don't need to announce that at every meal, and vegans tend to be somewhat militant about

their veganism. And I believe the comment that I will always remember for the rest of my life when Rocco encounters a militant vegan who has to tell everyone at the table, maybe in the entire restaurant, that they are vegan. Makes them want to shove a steak down their throat. I'd pay to watch that time for the man. And that mad man is one Tom Davis. These are the Tom Davis Diaries on a Saturday morning, with wild, wacky

stories from around the world like these, Good morning Gary, Jeff. This week, what do you do when you can't find a babysitter and you've scheduled a robbery? But first, for all you love us out there who've been left behind this Valentine's Day, spend it at the Chicago Brookfield Zoo. They are letting you pick out a cockroach and name it before it gets fed to a mere cat. The zoo says it's a humorous way to celebrate human relationships.

Speaking for my fellow cockroaches, I say it's cruel. The Health Department in New York City is issuing a warning to parents about TikTok. Apparently, teenagers are participating in a TikTok challenge where they as many toothpicks as they can. The Health department is reminding people toothpicks are not to be eaten. Who says the government is a bloated waste of money. A dad in Alabama wasn't sure what to do with his kids after his babysitter canceled, so he took

his two toddlers with him to rob a house. And this guy couldn't seem to get anything right because the homeowner was actually home and chased him and his kids down the street. Then he steals a getaway car and then abandons that at a gas station, leaving his daughters in it. He was eventually caught not far from there. The girls are going to Department of Child Services.

And finally, it was an action packed day in Green Bay. Some dude was being pursued by the cops on the highway when he got the bright idea to drive onto a frozen lake. And no, the car did not break the ice and sink. It actually kept going, but without the guy in it, he bailed, or should I say he George baileied across the ice, slipping and sliding, trying to get away on foot. The rest of

the cops were awaiting for him at the other side of the lake. Each one of his pockets front and back contain little bottles of alcohol next week. The most polite bank robber in history. The note he passed to the tailer promised to pay it all back. Have a great weekend. When do you like to listen to Scott's Loan? I like listening to his show when I make a meatload. That's not a bad idea. I like listening to a show with my favorite puppet, mister Saki. That's kind of weird. I

like listening to his show when I'm vacuuming the sheets I met that. I like listening to his show while I'm spying on the neighbors. They're up to no good. Trust me, no matter where you are or what you're doing. It's Slney time. You got that right. Scott's Loan Monday morning at nine on seven hundred WLW, and check out his podcast on the free iHeartRadio app. Busses we head to our Saturday daybreak. It's clouds early and some

rain developing by noon. We'll see a high of forty seven degrees at night, still wet, and the low down to thirty five on Sunday. Rain in a possible mix nun clouds in a high of forty from your severe Weather station. I'm nine First Warning Chief Meteorologist Steve Rawley, News Radio seven hundred WLW seven hundred WLW Sports Liam Young squire. What's the story on sports this weekend, sir? We have two local college basketball teams playing today. Kentucky

travels to bud Walton Arena to face Arkansas. Kentucky looks to rebound out the their disappointing performance at South Carolina. Tip Off is at six and you can listen to that game on ESPN fifteen thirty. Cincinnati hosts Central Florida at Fifth Third Arena tonight. The Bearcats are looking for their third Big twelve win of the season. Tip is set for seven Pregame coverage begins at six thirty and you can catch all the action right here on seven hundred WW. Very good.

And we also have all the action of the NFL Championship Sunday tomorrow starting at three pm. Yes doubleheader. First game is the AFC Championship between the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens in Baltimore. Second game Detroit. That kickoff is at three pm. The second game is the Lions versus San Francisco and that game is at six point thirty. All right, And I predicted and I'm not the only one weeks ago that it would be Baltimore versus San Francisco.

So I'm going against type from my home, my homie team, the Kansas City Chiefs, of which I've been a fan for six years. So I'm just looking forward to somehow, some way Lamar Jackson falls down and doesn't get up. I don't, I don't know. Definitely is the X factor and how Jackson can run the ball versus the Chiefs and if Patrick mahomes magic even on the road, remains a factor. Five one, seven, four nine, seven thousand the number to get in touch, and we have Sandy

on the line, a comment on being a vegan. Sandy, good morning, good morning. How are you. I'm fine, thank you? Good? Oh go ahead, I'm sorry, no no, no, the floor is yours. Deer, Okay, I have to take I don't know what the what the expression is, but exception. That's that's good, thank you, exception A little bit to what you said, you know, number one, I don't care what somebody tries to do. There's fanatics, you know,

in any they're fanatical. Radio hosts. They're fanatical bodybuilders, they're fanatical, and there are fanatical begins, You're right, and there are fanatical callers as well, Sandy, right, exactly, and I'm not one of them. I actually like your show and I'm a pretty regular listener. I used to live near Cincinnati, and I now live in West Virginia, so it's kind of like a little takee to home, you know, and especially when you talk to the people from Brown County, because that's where I live.

But I'd like to tell you just real quickly why I became a vegan. I was I've only been a vegan about six years now, something like that. And the reason I became a vegan was my husband was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer and his on colleges was Chinese, and the first thing he did was pretty much time, no, no red meat, and so I started doing a lot of research on, you know how, the effect of

diet, particularly on pro jecate cancer. But then of course I was booking it across the board after a while, and so we adapted to being a vegan. Now, I will say he cheated, he never became a total vegan, and I don't know that it would have made a difference. His cancer was so far advanced. But if you do the research, especially with prostate cancer, is the effects of animal protein and dairy it's immense. And so because of my health and then also I guess a little bit if you

look into the effects of what they call industrial agriculture. Now, somebody raising a call in their backyard and doesn't affect me. You know, I'm not that I'm not a fanatic. I don't go around, you know, telling people they need to be a vegan. I think everybody has the right to make those decisions. But if you really look into industrial agriculture, it's one of the coolest things ever. And so I for those reasons, I adapted to a vegan lifestyle. Well, no, and Sandy, I applaud that

we were talking about fanatical vegans. That was that whole discussion was about. And the fact is that you have to announce you're a vegan to every new person you meet. You don't, we don't We're happy for you, And I don't do that. But I will say this, there are fanatics in every line of whatever decision you make. There are those people that are out there and way out there. You know. I don't care who you're talking

about. There's gonna be those people, and unfortunately they give the average person like me a bad name. I don't think that, Sandy, I don't think that you're average at all. I would consider you above average. And thanks for listening. I got to run. Okay, okay, thank you for taking my call. I appreciate it. Thank you, dear. Seven hundred WLW.

Banking with every federal credit union offers advantages that set them apart from other guys. Rain moves in for the afternoon and the evening. We'll see a high forty seven that fades overnight low thirty six, wintry, mixed possible Sunday morning cooler with a high

of forty. We'll see more forties with dryer days next week. From your Silver weather station, I'm nine first Warning Meteorologist Raven Richard, News Radio seven hundred WLW. Cloudy in forty one degrees right now it's seven thirty five next updated eight. I'm Sandy Collins on news Radio seven hundred WLW News twenty four hours a day. He was a radio seven hundred W l W. It's rock and Roll Archaeology on a Saturday morning. He's the music professor Jim Lebarbara.

I'm Gary Jeff Walker and this was number one sixty two years ago. Today we gotta new dance and the good life. But got the name of the dance the peppermnquiz. Well, like this the pepper mistriss around around, down, round around the downs, round it around it up. What do you drink it? What do you drink? Wow? Around wisdom maybe down a forty history, but well the pepper mistresses me do all right. From

twisting at the Peppermint Lounge. Another number one twist song. As we open up this segment of Rock and Roll Archaeology, prop how are you doing? My dad said that he pulled his back in nineteen sixty two dancing to the Peppermint Twist. That record, you played that record, I got that, Jerry Jeff. That brings back so many memories. Now that was the number one record. As you mentioned but on that session that the star lightters the

nucleus of the young rascals. We're in that group of Starlight. Who's backing up Joey d In that group also was a want to be musician, guitar player, Joe Petsy. He didn't make it as a musician, but became a pretty good actor. And if you saw the act in the nightclub, the little blonde girl with a dancer in the background, the go go dancer, everybody love Goldie hawn a big on laughing and those girls that were singing in the background help them out. Well, they became the ronette. So

there was so much talent, no doubt. What a what really a history making group, you know, that was a launching pad for so many great acts. Up next, we had a Shangri La birthday this past week. Is that correct? No, No, we lost it. We lost her a week ago. Oh we could go fighting. Marywise, Marywives passed away age of seventy five. Brought back so many memories. A leader of the

pack. Now these girls made their first records. Mary was fifteen, her sister Betty, who's the only one alive, it was seventeen at the time. And then the Gamser twins were sixteen, so you had the two sets of sisters, identical twins and sisters. And they got their name from the night club in the Queens, New York, and they were off and running. They had a guy named shadowed More who liked them and put them in a recording session and they did a song I remember, walking the Sand.

And then they had the Gyganic that was a big hit, a Mellion cellar. But then they had number one hit with the Leader of the Pack. Now I had a chance to spend some time with them. I had, I had dinner with them. They had a reputation. They were the bad girls. You know, uh, blue collar area of the Queen's tough, just tough. And there were all kinds of rumors about their escapades and then

what they did. And uh had dinner they might show when I was in Cleveland, spent about mile with them and after dinner afterwards with a promoter and uh, we're gonna party afterwards. We're gonna party with these girls. They had this reputation. You know, I'm a young guy, they're young, and they was so crude at the dinner table, I mean just I mean past the blanketly blank body. He ain't married. Boom boom boom. The

language was just a procious uh, very crude, very crude girls. And so if you look back, though, I'm looking back on their history because because we're supposed to run party and I said, you know what, I've got something else I got to do. I can't make it. I couldn't make it. So I left and I said, I just can't get over that. Now, over the years, checking back, talking to dish jockeys

and people who apparently partied with him, no, nothing. Now they had these records, then they had give him a great big give give him a great big kiss. And they tour England with the Beatles, lived with the wolming Stones, and they get a food fight with Dusty Springfield. They're hired by James Brown from major show in Texas. Uh and Brown. James he

couldn't believe that they're white. He thought they were black. And it was there that my white gets involved in the altercation with a police officer pulls a gun on her when she enters the washroom reserved for colored women and h they are very crude gestures of language, chewing gun stockings that ripped up the leg and remembered with them, and somebody tried to break into Mary's hotel room and she got herself a darningser pistol, a FBI got them nothing wrong with a

tough broad from Queens. Really, well, I got to tell you, I got to tell you that reputation. I really believed after all these years, that was their defense mechanism that really protected the girls. They had this image. And she ended up getting really cheated by the business because her mom signed the contract, and she said her mom signed her contract away when she was like fourteen years old. She moves back to San Francisco, but because

of the legal assholes, she can't get back into the music rife. And she said it was even harder to get out of the business and she couldn't go near another record company for ten years. She goes back to New York, she goes to San Francisco, goes back to New York and nothing in the business. And so the shadow Morton is the guy, the strange guy with the robe in the studio. He produces the records of actual motorcycle sound on the record from the engineer's Well, I'll tell you what Jim let's let's

let's listen to it. Our explanation has gone more than the song does. But here are is Mary Wise and the Shangri Laws and their biggest hit ever. Is she really going out? Well, there she is. Let's ask is that Jimmy's wing you worry? Mm hmm gee, it must be great writing. Is he picking you up after school today? By the way, where'd you eat him? The candy is not turning around and smiled at me.

You get the picture. Yes, we see her. That's when I failed for Leader of the Past. I've got her all with putting him down, down down. They said he came from the wrong side of me anyway, that it came from the wrong side of town. They told me he was sad. He was. That's why I failed for the Leader of the Past. One day I did said to find someone who I had to tell then Jimmy and I don't find Nobody's sorry you leader of the pack. He's

sort of small kissing Mikoba. Some tears were beginning to show as he drove away. Call it rainy night. I begged him to go slow and may be heard. I'll never know. The leader of Pack is gone. I've felts Hell at seven seven hundred l W Your Rock and Roll Archaeology continues on his Saturday Morning Gary Jeff with Jim Lebarbera, the music professor up next, So kind of like the beginning on the radio for an incredible iconic performer. Up next, Jim, Yeah, we lost her on Tuesday. Passed away

at the age of seventy six. Melanie Melanie Sapka was her name, and she was one of the three ladies invited to perform and perform at Woodstock Janice dropping Joan Biens and she performed on the opening nights. Her name is Melanie. She went by the name of Melanie Melanie Safka, and she's twenty two years old. She played at the Bitter End in the village of New York.

Was well known, well known among that circle in the village, didn't have a hit record, goes to Woodstock and actually sings seven songs and she's on the Woodstock video that they came a big hits. So she's on stage that night and she's playing in front of thousands of people first night, twenty three years old, and she gets inspired by her appearance at Woodstock because it

was raining most of the day. Some of the members of the audience were holding up candles like they were going to fight off the all together were to

fight off the rain with our candles. And here she was, this girl who performed alone on stage, usually with the guitar, never having sung from more than five hundred people, sets into this night full of little whites, and she has this chorus of laid Down already in her head as she used the field, and she says, you never perceived the world again after that, So wearing her long hair, longer dresses, sort of a gesual hippie

goddess of the contra counterculture. Sounded like a little girl's voice and a unique voice and woodstock. She was born that night. And she records this song and it comes to number six million cellar in nineteen seventy laid Down Candles in the Rain from that night's experience, and it becomes the Mallion's Cellar. Then she forms her own record label, Neighborhood Records, and has a bigger hit with the Little roller Skating Song. This song is so iconic about that night.

Let's do it Melanie with the Edwin Hawk and singers and Candles in the rain bite we were so close. There was bloody side Lady side fools. We all had asse. We all signed the songs of Bea the New Goods, remembering the late Melanie Sapta on the Saturday morning. It is now seven hundred wl W, moving along our list. This is the one I thought we were doing next. Originally out of nineteen sixty six by again a classic

iconic performer, Jim you know Neil Diamond. Neil Diamond, Yeah, and we you know he celebrated the birthday the of the day, eighty three years old, still goings going now. This is the first record he did. It's a kid who's going to college, went to college. He's in school and almost ready to graduate, and he gets an offer from the publishing for him for sixteen weeks, the sixteen week job for like equivalent of four hundred nine dollars a week in our money today fifty bucks a week at that time.

He drops out of school sixteen week contract and they drop him after sixteen weeks, and now he's like almost destitute. He's got no money. He's writing some songs in the brill building A hits one. I'm a Believer becomes this giant hit for the Monkeys, and he's off and running. Bang record signs and he does his first record that becomes a hit for him, a chart anyway. HiT's the charts at number fifty five in nineteen sixty six.

Tary Man, Now that record. He and I talked about this record was this was Neil Diamond, an introspective Neil Diamond, a song about the loner looking for love. And it was like it was like Neil Diamond's story. And he said later, after four years of forty analysis, he said, I wrote about myself. That was about me. And I think if you look back on the songs that the Neil Diamond did, h they're all very personal for Neil, and that may be part of the secret of Neil Diamond's

great success. He was a deeply personal performer in perspective, writer who transformed himself on stage to this exhibitionist singing his songs. And this was the first record. Later came back four years later and hit number twenty one. But it was solitary, man, it was prospective Neil diamon love Ring Diamond let up holding him, loving him, and Sue came along love Miss Strong.

That's what I thought me and sue, but that you don't know that a week but I can find look girls the stand the all black games behind him. Helby would have him slow to about tig been with loads of small word while time things favor ring. I know it's been done, having one girl who loves you right or wrong, weaker, strong, legals gone, but to hold you would hell from the Old Bang record Label. Neil Diamond on Rock and Roll Archaeology, Jim, let's wrap this up and we're gonna move

to nineteen seventy eight. I believe yeah, this is the number one record this week in nineteen seventy eight. It's the best of all. I made a terrible mistake. And now on what Your Back Songs, I think as we recorded it was written by British American rock guy's a group called Player, Peter Beckert and J. C. Crowley, who at the time when they wrote this song. Beckett, he's from Liverpool, England, home of the Beatles. He's in l a at the time he joined a band called Sky

Band and they broke up after one album. He means this guy Crowley and the two of them, they're both going through at that time, a breakup that both Crowley, his wife left him went back to England. The other guy, they both brooke, had breakups. They both went through this and so they write this song together and they get a record deal and it becomes

a giant number one record. Now. Interestingly, on thephi side note, in two thousand and eight, this song baby Comeback made a very interesting comeback, but it was used to pitch the swiffer. The swiffer wet jet that was a mop that splayed the floor cleaner. We have one, yeah, And it's very humorous that the commercial the old mops try to win back the

housewives that tossed the mouths. And this is the music just playing the player from nineteen seventy eight number one this week that year, Baby come Back, Thank you, Jim. Spending all my nights my mouth.

And right now it's time to talk to our friends science Mike, who has a science minute from somewhere this side of Dell High to you.

Yes, as a knight of scientist who is a surprising all blinded me. Good morning, Michael, to hear about the guy who got a kolonoska be on a Wednesday in laryngitis the next day. No, who do you think you are? Dave from Harrison? Uh? Obviously? So is that is that you? Do? You have laryngitis? Now your colonoscopy? Yeah? I do. Oh my gosh, did they going the wrong way? I maybe maybe they went in and came out yet I don't know what they hell happen. All right, Well, our prayers are with you. That that

doesn't sound fun? Okay? So and you don't sound that froggy. You sound okay, okay. So what do you got for us? Do you? It's kind of how past time goes. I remember it was April of twenty twenty one. You and I were making kind of funny jokes about that helicopter on Mars, the Ingenuity helicopter. Yes, we put up. Well it's it's done flying. It's it was only supposed to fly for five missions, Gary Jeff and the flute was seventy two missions, which is pretty good.

You get down. I wish I got the mileage out of my ice maker at a basin now. But what happened was it was coming down from forty feet They must have did a flight, not forty feet is coming down, got around three feet off the ground, and all of a sudden we lost communication and I guess it felt free fell three fall from three feet up, and I think it kind of tipped over and won the blades, dugging into the ground and broke broke one of the carbon garbon viable blades. It's

not, it's not. It's just sitting there now. So it's just gonna be one of those pieces of joke we've left on Mars. That's right, it's got power, but it's just I say, you just see, it's lies anyway, they can't hurt. Yeah, I don't know, but the fact that they planned it to operate for five missions and here three years later it goes for seventy two. I mean that is that is absolutely the epitome of underpromising and over delivering delivering. That's that's incredible, right at least it

wasn't made by Bowing. Well, yeah, I don't know. There was some malfunction, so there there may have been some Boeing fingerprints on that helicopter on Mars. Well, well that's I hope you feel better and get your voice back. And you know, we're only a few weeks out now, we're about a month out from the anniversary party of the Saturday Morning edition on February twenty fourth. That huddles, Yes, sir, yes, sir, I'll be yeah. Well, Joe, just don't schedule any more colonoscopies between

now and then. I think I might have an earache next time. Chez Bye Science Mike this morning on seven hundred wlw Eddie here reminding you drinking spoiled milk is lousy, but listening to the podcast of the Eddie and Rocky Show is enjoyable and entertaining. The Eddie and Rocky Podcast enjoyable, entertaining and curd free. Bye. I'm Henry. Something positive on this program. We do that every week by bringing you the truth, the Word of God, courtesy

of our conne it brother Rick Green from Spirit Works, Cincinnati. Mine. I'm going to let it shine. I'm going it shine. I'm going let it shine shine. That is shine shine, yeah, oh yeah, shining that light on the Saturday morning edition. And guess who was in the studio now on the telephone right across from me. It's Rick Green. How you doing, brother Green? I'm doing great, Gary, Thank you for having me here. You're about to make me cry because I feel like we honored

Daddy every Saturday when we play that song. It's emotional. Father. I miss him. Yeah yeah, Gary, I welcome this morning, praying for you and your listeners, and we got a good one today. We're coming from Jane chapter five, verse seven, and it's that be patient, brothers and sisters until the Lord's coming. See how the former wits for the land to yield is valuable crops patiently waiting for autumn and spring. Rains you to

be patient, stand firm because the Lord coming is near. And you know this is a message, and I think it relates not only to me, but I think it relates to you because you're being tried in the fire of Patients. Right now with some things going on in your life and the fact that you're still filming this movie about your life, the Spirit Works movie, and you're talking about a podcast that maybe you and I would be a part

of, and our friend Joe Strecker down the line. It's funny. The first thing that you were talking about when we were off the air was my participation in the podcast and what compensation I would look for. And the compensation is being with you and having the time to spend with you and other people who were tuned into the podcast. And the idea is that this podcast would be a place where people can give their testimony about how God has touched their

life like he's touched yours, like he's touched mine. You were in a cell at the Justice Center and you fell on your knees and you asked God to take away your thirst for alcohol and your need for any kind of other substance, and cleaning out your mouth because Ricky had a potty mouth. He was in trouble and had a potty mouth, and all of that miraculously went

away. God took that away and gave you a new life. And I know there are other people out there who would like to tell their story about how God has affected there, and this would be a platform for that. I think it's a fantastic idea, and I hope that we can get something together soon. God, Gary, you have been nothing but a blessing since God allowed our past to cross. Me and my family love you well. Thank you, brother. We love you too, and you, likewise have

been a blessing. Is there anything else you'd like to tell people here in a few minutes together, Rick, I just want people to know that God loves us right where we are. Don't get caught up in the line of O'll do it tomorrow tomorrow's and I promise somebody's probably grieving this morning because the loved one passed away last night. That's you know. Don't get caught up in that tomorrow. Yeah, and you said God will meet you right where

you are. You don't have to clean up first before God will meet you. You know, it's up to God to take away the dirt. We can't do it on our own. That's it. That is true. Well, listen, it's great to have you in and just sit around for a few more minutes. We'll do some sports and the usual things. Here. Rick Green from Spirit Works Cincinnati. The movie is in progress, and you said you've been blessed too with a lot ofvolunteers because you don't have a whole

lot of money to do this movie with. Yeah, praise God. People are just donating their talent, effort and time. It's mind blowing. It can't be a rid green thing. Gotta be a God thing. There you go. Well, I'm waiting for my cameo. You got it all right, eight nineteen, seven hundred WLW. This morning at nine, Mike Allen takes a stand and then eventually a seat once his legs get tired. On seven hundred WLW, have you found yourself in too much debt? Consolidate all

your debt with McKinley Mortgage. McKinley is helping customers with credit scores as low as five eighty start saving money now call seven nine one twereak. It's clouds early and some rain developing by noon. We'll see a high of forty seven degrees at night, still wet, and the low down to thirty five on Sunday, rain and a possible mix afternoon clouds in a high of forty from

your severe weather station. I'm nine first Warning che Meteorologist Steve Rawley, News Radio seven hundred wl W seven one hundred WLW Sport Liam Tomlinson has come out of his one week retirement from the show to come back in at the sports desk, and Liam, I understand that we are only sixty one days away from regular season Reds Baseball from opening day. Yeah, sixty one days away from Red's Baseball, and I can say I'm excited for this year. I

don't know about you. The team has a bunch of new energy, new life. It feels like new era. Pass Joeyvado, I'm amped up. Yeah, looking forward to it too. Spring training of pitchers and catchers report. What February fifteenth isn't correct? Yeah? Right around then, right after Valentine's Day? All right, in goodyear, Arizona. But let's get to the present. There's plenty of college hoops today, and we'll start with the UC Bearcats one hundred and fifty four games to be exact, but we'll start

with the local teams. Cincinnati host Central Florida at Fifth Third Arena tonight. The Bearcats are looking for their third Big twelve win of the season to this set for seven. You can catch all the coverage right here on seven hundred WLW starting at six thirty. And the UK Wildcats looking to bounce back after what was just a shameful performance in Columbia, South Carolina against the Game Cocks. Kentucky's on the road and they traveled to Bud Walton Arena to face Arkansas.

That tip off is at six and you can listen to that game at ESPN fifteen thirty. And of course it's NFL Championship Weekend, the AFC and the NFC Championships respectively Tomorrow. All the action here on seven hundred WLW three o'clock kick from Baltimore. Yeah, first game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens. The Kansas City Chiefs and their six straight conference championship appearance in the Baltimore Ravens with Lamar Jackson at the top them in. Second game

is the NFC Championship between the Detroit Lions and San Francisco. Detroit Travels to San Francisco to face forty nine Ers. Jared golf Look's returned to his second Super Bowl and former mister Irrelevant Brock Purty looks to play in his first and that kickoff is at six thirty two. Fun games between four great teams. And again, I think the key to the San Francisco game is probably the

performance of Christian McCaffrey. You mentioned the quarterbacks, and I think the key in the AFC is whether Lamar Jackson just runs all over the Kansas City Chiefs or not. I don't see that happen, to be honest. For you, coming up on eight twenty five, Rick Green, thank you for joining us for this half hour. Are any other things you want to you want to leave the folks with this morning? You know what, Grey, this

is a rarity about my mind is drawing the blank. I just want to thank you, you know, for having me in the studio, and thank you for believing in me. It's fair work. Oh yeah. The first time, the first the first time we met, which is probably coming up on seven eight years ago at least, I heard your story and it just blew me away, and I realized that with God's all things are possible. Amen, and not just for you or anybody, but for me too.

So I'm really thankful and grateful for you and your message. So thank you for giving me a platform to brayd positivity and love. That's so few of them. Well, no, exactly, and we'll go back. We'll go back to the negativity as soon as you leave, probably no, but thanks a lot for being here, brother. Oh you're welcome, all right, lad day you two gifts from Wally on the way and a visit with Moe Egger before we are done. This is a Saturday morning edition on seven hundred

WLW. Here's what's trending on you I hardsports. We'll see a higher forty seven that fades overnight low thirty six, wintry, mixed, possible Sunday morning cooler with the high of forty. We'll see more forties with drier days next week. From your silver weather station, I'm nine First Warning Meteorologist Raisin Richard, News Radio seven hundred WLW forty one degrees right now, our next update at nine. I'm Sandy Collins, who's radio seven hundred wl W news twenty

four hours a day. He was a radio seven hundred w l W. Good morning, kids time, well gifts from Wally or is it so yesterday? We're at the bar my other job and regular Pat Donolan says, I've got a great joke for gifts from Barney, and I said, it's gifts from Here's a gift from Barney. You love me, We're a happy them. That's enough. That's your gift from Barney. Thanks Pat for that. Actually, this is Pat's joke I'd like to share with you. A guy

buys the newest AI lie detector robot that slaps people when they lie. The guy decides to test it out at dinner one night. He asked, is not year old son, what have you done that afternoon? And the sun says, oh, I did some more schoolwork, dad. The robots slapped him. Said okay, okay. I was at a friend's house watching movies, and the father asked, well, what what movie did you watch?

Son? He said, Toy Story. The robot slaps the kid again, the sense of okay, okay, dad, we were we were watching porn and the father says, what at your age, I didn't even know what porn was. And the robots slapped him, and then the mother's laughing. She says, well, he certainly is your son. The robots slapped her.

Seven hundred WLW Cincinnati available everywhere with the iHeartRadio app down number one for podcasting seven hundred WLW and iHeartRadio Station one eight seven colors Kids ka as cause it's almost over three weeks, I mean including the bye week. To talk about that and whatever else comes up. Our friend Moe Eggar joins us, and I would like to start by saying, Hey, Mo, Gary, Jeff, what's going on. You know, as long as we've been doing

this, I still don't have the SoundBite from the Three Stooges. Hey Mo, I mean I figured I would have had that piece of the production put together by now. After how many how many years have we been doing this together on Saturday mornings. It's a little long in the tooth. I think we're getting there. Yeah, I want to say at least twelve or thirteen. Really, yeah, that's crazy because I remember it seems like yesterday talking to Scott Reinhardt, the program director, and say, you know, I've

talked to Moe Egger and he's up for it. But you know, I think at the time it was like to have a little bit younger appeal to the show, and it's not quite as young as it used to be because I just apparently forgot to think about you getting older too. I mean, Crosley is how old your daughter's how old she'll be? Seven? And Mess, I don't believe it. That's just crazy talk, insane. But anyway, and I remember you know, saying, you know, let's do this,

and I can't believe it's been a dozen years. Mo. But then again, I can't believe that I've been doing this show for twenty seven and we're coming up on the anniversary here in about a month. Also coming in just a little over two months the start of baseball season, the Reds are on the radio again. I can't wait. I can't wait. In fact, well four weeks away from the first spring training broadcast, I can't wait.

You know, the fun thing about this year is, you know, we have more to look forward to than just baseball on the radio, because I think the team has a chance to be pretty good. Yeah, oh absolutely, if they can even halfway match the excitement and intensity that they had last year at the home games at Great American Ballpark. I mean it. And you and I have talked about this, and anybody who witnessed it has talked about it ad nauseum about how baseball was back in Cincinnati, you know

where the original Major League Baseball town eighteen sixty nine. It had kind of lost its luster over for a lot of people, especially the casual fans. But the casual fans even came back last year, and I think we'll see more of that. And you're right, there is great reason for optimism and

excitement until you get the first injury report. But if you can, just if you can just keep enough guys on the field to make it come competitive and entertaining and compelling the way it was last year, again, we have nothing but great things to look forward to as Reds fans in twenty twenty four. I agree with you no question. I mean, they have put together a team that I think has a chance to be really, really competitive. But I think what happened last year. You and I talked about this on

the We sort of recapped twenty twenty three. To me, the sports story in Cincinnati in twenty twenty three was that the city fell back in love with baseball for the first time in a very long time. And it wasn't just that they were in the hunt. It was it was a really likable team. It was a really easy team to root for. You know, they had such abundant chemistry, and you know, on a daily basis, it felt like during the summer there were, you know, a different hero emerging

every single night. And obviously they fell short of the playoffs, but they certainly do have bona fide playoff hopes. In twenty twenty four, Yeah, even in one run losses, it still was I didn't feel like i'd lost, like I'd wasted my time watching, you know what I'm saying. And there were some times, there were some times in twenty twenty one and twenty twenty two where I felt like, Okay, that was a waste of time. Why did I even bother to listener watch? And it wasn't that way

last year, So it was wonderful. Do you see Bearcats back at home? Moeger of course, part of the Bearcat broadcast team playing UCF tonight. Tell me about the Central Florida. Well, so, there's a defensive metric a college basketball fans talk about, which is adjusted defensive efficiency, basically measures how good you are defensively. UCF is number six in the country and adjusted defensive efficiency. This team beat Kansas, this team held Houston to below sixty

points. They're not great offensively, but they are really really hard to score against. Kansas found that out, and I think it's a kind of a must win for the Bearcats, right They their own in all these Big twelve games. But if the idea is to get to the NCAA Tournament, you got to start stacking wins. You know. He can't just be about, well we beat a good team here or there. You got to get to a certain win total. I think they have to go nine to nine and

the Big twelve to make the NCAA Tournament. That math becomes really hard to get to nine to nine if they'll win today. Yeah, time's running out, and times running out on the National Football League for this season and tomorrow the Penn Ultimate. I mean, we're almost at the Big Kahuna super Bowl

to decide who's there. They got to play the games tomorrow. I was thrilled that my Kansas City Chiefs beat the Buffalo Bills, of course last Sunday in Buffalo, And I was even gladder that I had the opportunity to text with Scott Sloan afterwards. I'm sure he appreciated that. Oh yeah, and I think his clan back was I said, uh, I'll I'll speak to you again when you're no longer inconsolable. And he said, and he had a picture of fans. I guess he was right there at the stadium.

He said, froze my bleep off again for another wide right, and I and I text him back. I said, no, Norwood's not just a Cincinnati thing. It's a Buffalo thing. And Jim Mantz on the broadcast, he was ready with that right as soon as the ball left his toe. Yeah, he chimes in with wide right, knowing knowing what that means for Buffalo. Bill says, Buffalo Bills have been to four Super Bowls. Correct, they have lost. They have lost them all in in somewhat similar fashion

to the loss against the Kansas City Chiefs. They guess they got blown out once or twice. But the Scott Norwood wide right is part of Buffalo football lore and uh, you know, the bane of the existence of Bills fans everywhere. And it happened again. So looking ahead, do the Kansas City Chiefs, who have been very good defensively this year, do they find a way to stop Lamar Jackson from running the ball. It's it's it's the question of the weekend, right, I mean, Kansas City's defense number one in

the NFL in not allowing explosive plays. But is there a more explosive player in the NFL than Lamar Jackson. I think this game is actually going to be decided by Patrick Mahomes more than anything that Lamar Jackson does. Because Kansas City's offense, as uneven as it was all season long, was terrific against Buffalo, and they've, you know, for all of their issues throwing the ball downfield Isaiah Piciceco, their running back has been just terrific. You're talking

about an angry runner. He's been awesome. And you know, let's say what you want about Travis Kelcey, and there are a lot of people who have said a lot of things. Close to the goal line last week, instead of throwing it to him, they hand it to him. He finds the end zone twice. He's been such a money player in the postseason.

I think the Chiefs have it goes without saying they have a chance. They're designing champions, But if they can limit Lamar Jackson just a little bit, I think they have more than a puncher's chance to pull off the upset. Dennis mailed me at Gary Jeff Walker at seven hundred WLW dot com. Would you proclaim yourself as swifty for life if it guaranteed a Kansas City Chief Super Bowl victory? And I said no, I draw the line somewhere and that's

that's my story. On the other side, in the NC, the team that many people have thought was the prohibitive favorite to win it all, a team that Cincinnati Bingals fan is very familiar with, the San Francisco forty nine ers hosting the Detroit Lions, who have never won a Super Bowl. How do you see this playing out and coming down? Is it about Christian McCaffrey and what he does for the Niners or is it about Jared Golf and what

the Lion is about Detroit secondary. I think it's about the Lions secondary, which isn't very good. And if you go back over the last five games, they've given up one hundred yards to a wide receiver in all of them, including last week, including in the wildcard game. So I look for Brandon Aiyuk, Dan Francisco wide receiver averaging eighty yards per game. How do they slow him down? McCaffrey's going to get his and Detroit's offense is really

really good. You know, teams all season long struggle to run the ball against the forty nine ers. The Lions have a really good running back duo and Jamar Gibbs and David Montgomery, but I think the Lions have to figure out ways to keep the forty nine ers from beating them downfield because for as good as that team is, and they are really really good, their secondary

is not. Yeah, you know, it would be great to see Dan Campbell with a victory after his amazing coaching turn around with the Lions in Detroit. And also Rock Purty, Rock Party, who was mister Irrelevant and everybody made such a big point of that the last player selected in the NFL draft. And then he becomes a franchise quarterback in the NFL and now on the precipice of leading his team to possibly a Super Bowl victory. That's a pretty

amazing story. A kid from Iowa State that know, how did they miss? How did they whiff on Rock Party? Mo all the tech people. It's a great question because it's not like he played at some you know, miniscule school that nobody's heard of. He was an Iowa State in the Big twelve, right, pretty high profile place. It's remarkable for all of the time and effort and energy and resources that NFL teams put in the draft, how infrequently they miss, right. I mean, it's not even rock party.

I'll go back to last year's draft. Ivan Pace from the University of Cincinnati and Miami University doesn't gets wrapped last year and he might have been the best rookie linebacker in the league in twenty twenty three. For all that they put into the draft, they do miss often. Yeah, it's just an amazing thing. We listen enjoy the game tonight. I hope we can have

a UC victory. As you mentioned, they got to get to nine and nine at least in the Big twelve to have a shot at the Big Dance, and tonight is another one of those games that's kind of becoming a must win for the Bearcats. Mo Egar, thank you very much. A part of the Saturday Morning edition. I can't believe it's been twelve or thirteen years. I really can't. I mean, and that's that's just a slice of where we've been so far down this road. Time flies. Mike Allen Saturday

Midday. How long have you been doing the Saturday midday showt you know what I thought about that the other day about five or six years I think I don't know officially though, but about that, I mean, I remember like when you were just starting and you like put your headphones on the wrong way and one here on the forehead and one here in the back and no, Mike, they go on your ears. That's what they're falling. Man, I was terrible. I'm patients with me. Oh no, no, no,

don't. I mean, I love it though. I'll tell you what. Don't tell anybody, but I do it for free, which I'm basically doing anyway. I was going to say, compared to a lawyer's salary any any part of the hour I'm charging you for. Yeah. Right, Uh So what's on the program today? And well, first off, what's what's

the bee in your bonnet? What is your opening argument, counselor Well, I'll tell you what the big bee in my bonnet is this uh, this border deal that they're trying to hash out in the Senate, which is just not enough, doesn't even come close to them. It's still it allows for a million and a half illegals to get in the country every year, and they call it League. It's just it's unbelievable. And then you got Mitch McConnell and some of the others on it. That thing's got to be knocked

down when it gets to the House and fast, and it will. We're going to talk about that also, Gary Jeff on the lighter side. Although it is funny, but it's not. Two new word salads this week, not from the Vice president but from the President. And well, I'll tell you some of the things that he says, they just make no sense at all. And it's kind of scary in a way that this man is the leader of the free world. Well, I don't know how free it is

or but and that's his doing. But the fact that they have allowed this to go on at the border, and it's been a problem for a long time, let's admit that. And both Republicans and Democrats have missed the boat or not wanted to fix the problem for whatever reason, whether it's economically. Trump didn't well, I mean he did. He he made the efforts and

it was working. But of course, as soon as Joe Biden took office, all of that was out to win just because it was Trump's idea, just because it was Trump's idea, and once again we're finding out and maybe even some of these Trump hating idiots are finding out Trump was right. Well, I think they are, they won't admit it. And now the Democrats are hitting a panic button because it's the top immigration is the top issue among voters. Now they're hitting a panic button. They're like, oh, we

got to do something. So they're pushing this thing, which it's not enough, it's not nearly enough. What it doesn't provide for is what Donald Trump said a number of times that he will do the largest deportate mass deportation in history. That's what we need. In other words, follow the federal law. Yeah, if you enter the country illegally, you're out. Sorry, you know what, Go make your case somewhere else and maybe wait your turn

in line and maybe we'll let you in later. Because it is our country. It's a sovereign country. Unless you have no borders. We have no borders right now. And that's why I love what Texas is doing all yeah, Governor Greg Abbott is doing in Texas. And the federal government be damned in this because it's it's Article one, Section ten three c of the Constitution says that if a sovereign state is being invaded, they can take action. I read it, and they're on solid ground. Who's on your show?

We're going to talk to Orlando Sanza. I know we talked to Orlando just last week. However, there are some BS charges involving his residency thrown at him this week by his opponent, and I'm going to let Orlando just knock those down. I feel that he should have a chance to do that. Also, going to talk to Janis Heisel of the Epic Times about Trump's victory in New Hampshire and on to South Carolina. Going to get the skinny from

her on what Trump's doing in this campaign. Fantastic Saturday midday is next after the show, show at Huddles. We'll see you then. Then the new year is here, and if you're like many of us, you're going to make a resident
