12-18-23 Gary Jeff Walker Nightcap

Again the night cap in the best place to start is at the beginning, and with that we welcome in one of our favorite all time guests on this program. He's an incredible, incredible guest. He is well, I'll let him tell you in a moment. He's a forensic psychologist based out of Austin, Texas, was one of the trailblazers in ketamine treatments in this country, which of course have been in the headlines and maybe misinterpreted those headlines as to

the actual the efficacy and the safety of said ketamine. And he is my friend. He's a he's a father, he's a hunter. He's still you're still married to your wife. Yeah, he's a husband. And he loves dogs, which means he is like one of the best people on the planet. Doctor John Huber, how are you? I am amazing? Thank you very much for asking Gary Jeff Walker first and foremost, before we get to the elephant in the room story over the last week regarding ketamine, I have

Christmas brain. I've got foggy Christmas brain. Is that unusual for people this time of year? As we wind down the days of the year and get closer and closer to the exact celebration of said holiday, Christmas. And for those of us who celebrate and participate, and even people who don't understand or don't celebrate Christmas as I know it as a Christian are still involved in the holiday hubbub and presence and family gatherings and all of that. How common is

Christmas brain? It's actually very common. What we find is that just about anything that creates stress in our lives causes issues with memory recall and things like that. Now, there are a few people who, to a certain extent can take that stress and use it in a beneficial way, and we call that ustress. Uh and and ustress is actually what allow people like like athletes,

you know, they prime themselves. You think of a track, start getting at the starting blox, you know, that level of stress, and it's building up to cause a trigger reaction for them to fire off and function at their best. That is actually what we consider a positive type of stress,

most of us though. However, you know, we started this whole thing with thanks or Halloween in October, writing the Thanksgiving and now we're right into to Christmas time and we're just kind of beaten that that dead horse too long and what happens is it just it becomes kind of a chronic issue, and so having issues with memory and forgetting different things that that you know,

you know are a priority for you. Uh and and then the minute you realize you forgot that, agree, it's a whole nother stress issue, and it just becomes a domino effect and it just builds and builds the builds. I don't know that it's actually negative stress or you stress. In my case, it's just one of those things where I just want everything else to be done so I can concentrate on Christmas and other things we have to do. I mean, I'm serious. Maybe I'm just lazy, maybe I'm just burnt,

But it's not by the actual prospect of Christmas. I'm not really concerned with all the Christmas shopping's done. We do have to travel next weekend to see my parents in Middle Tennessee, but that's not a really stressful thing either, not generally to me. What I'm thinking about, basically is putting my feet up and not doing anything for about forty eight to seventy two hours.

Is that part of this or not? Well, what happened is these little bitty things individually are nothing, and so you don't oftentimes associate them as being something that's stressful. That can kind of cause that. But eventually what happens is, again, it's a snowball effect, and it doesn't any one thing again is not a big deal. It's when you start adding these things.

God now, now being able to stop and physically not involve yourself in your daily grind, that's a whole another issue that a lot of us aren't very good at. We're so used to just going all the time, and if we stop and you know, essentially remove ourselves from what's going on in our existence, now, all of a sudden we start thinking of things like, oh man, what's going on with me? Why am I not working? What? We start creating a whole nother uh level of stress that that we're

not used to. I don't know, Maybe maybe I should just cash it in for a week, but I don't. I have to do these Well. I didn't mean cash in all the way. I didn't mean go all in and yeah, talk to me. I know a place you can go visit and leave the casino on a gurney. I wasn't talking about that. I just meant I don't know, just for the rest of the year, but I have things yet to do so and including this show, and we're

just getting started with that. So you and I almost at the very inception, and you'd already been working with this drug for stress and chronic pain and anxiety and all of the things that we and you certainly know that ketamine can be useful for and be very helpful to people. And then we heard the final cause of death of the the you know, the actor Matthew Perry from Friends at a very young age, and he'd had a lifetime of addiction that

he was battling and that was very well known. I mean, he was out in the open with it and honest about it, especially the last few years. But the cause of death finally released. It was what they say over now, not overdosing or what was it with ketamine? What was the it was it was a cute reaction to ketamine side effects or something like that.

It was really bizarre when in fact, the other drug that he was on printous and v U p r E n O r p h I n E is a drug that is a narcotic and it is highly physically addicted and it is very similar in a lot of ways to to uh, it was a heroine and the other drugs that are used to treat heroin, and it's designed specifically for that. It's a drug that is only given one day at a time to stop breathing and lowers your heart rate and causes unconsciousness. And

what I think is really interesting. Now, forget the fact that I've done Kennyming for as a practitioner for going on better part of ten years and used it with my patients and physicians, and forget all that as a university professor that I taught for over about twenty one years. The thing that I caught right away is the guy said that the report said that Kennyming had a three to five hour half life, when actually the research shows it's a seven minute

to eleven minute half life for the majority of our population. So immediately, immediately we know this guy doesn't have all of his facts straight. So what else did he not get right? And that's what I look at and what I would teach my gratitudents. You start finding errors like that, what else

did this person not get right? So I question the veracity of that, and I would have to defer again to my peers who are who are pathologists, And you know, if I'm able to get a copy of the full autopsy, I would like to take that to some of my peers again who are pathologists, and see, hey, were there some mistakes made on this

report? You know what what other information is incorrect or missing? When I know for a fact, as a practitioner who works with really highly regarded physicians using ketamine in my practice, with these positions to treat individuals who are suffering from psychotropic issues, why did this in staate occur? Knowing that, man, the data they reported is correct. Kennine also does not suppress your respiratory system. It does not need you know that, it does not need intubation

when that medicine is being used. It's safe enough that we use it over things like propofol in child surgeries and children and young young infants because we don't have to intubate, because we don't have to worry about respiratory suppression. And you know, this doctor is blaming ketamine and its residual side effects now knowing and even stated in his report that he had his infusion approximately ten days beforehand and probably had some oral a ketemine to supplement that did not even go into

the seriousness of the printiform. But I can't even say the word it's it's a drug that is oftentimes and I'm not going to get into the the because I don't want to have a loss of coming after me. Yeah, and knowing how addictive that medication is that the FDA says, do not give it three days in a row. Yet this person was apparently given some to take it home on his own. And it's a one time, every twenty four hour medication. It's not a medication that you you know, like how you've

broken you take every four to six hours. Now this you take this once every twenty four hours. It's a powerful narcotic, is what you're saying. And it can suppress your respiratory system. But ketamine is Ketamine is not you and I have talked about this, doctor Hubert, Yeah, many, many times about the side effects of ketamine, and that ain't one of them. Well, honestly, you know, ketamine can be psychologically addictive, you know,

when it starts improving your life. A lot of my patients, you know, are like, hey, you know, what if what if I need this later and I go, well, then you come back to the office and we say down and we talk about it. We don't just re right script after script after script. And that's you know that if they're doing that, if his physicians have done that, then there is some issues that need to be addressed with those those practitioners, and that that's you know,

the state health department that they're in need to address that. That's not that's above my case help. But it definitely is a scary thing. I mean, you know, blaming this on a medication that has been researched Back in the nineteen seventies, Russia did amazing research on psychotropic use Academy, so of the Iranians until the whole shop and you know, that issue in nineteen seventy

four took place, and then we started duplicating that research. You know what what four or five years ago, maybe even six years ago at you know, Yale and Johns Hopkins and m I T in those places like that Kennemy showing that it is so effective, you know, for example, you know depression, it has about an eighty efficacy rate and you know there's tons of data out there. Unfortunately, because it's not FDA approved for that, people

quickly jump on it, as you know, the stategoat. Yet in you know, just a few years ago, we approved s ketemine, which is a nasal version of ketamine that spray can actually fix or deal with improve depression symptoms. So we do know that it's good enough that the FDA has actually

approved a version of it for psychotropia. So I mean, do you think Joe, doctor Hubert, And again I don't want to entangle you in any legal issues here, but maybe the doctor who announced the cause of death finally in Matthew Perry's fatality and listing over exposure to ketamine as the primary cause. Do you think that maybe that doctor is covering his or some other doctors but

by prescribes having these other drugs that were in Matthew Perry's system. Or is there a concerted effort among some because of ketamine's effectiveness, uh to make it, make it the scapegoade to outlaw it. I you know, I think I think the second is probably more likely. The third thing that's not being mentioned here is that the majority of medical schools in this country are are controlled, that's not outright owned by big pharma. And this is a medication that

is way out of its patent years. Uh, it is basically in the public domain as far as that's concerned. No, no one pharmacy you know, owns the rights to it, and it's making lots of money out of it. So what's happening is that, you know, they want to sell their new you know, new fangled medications where they make lots of money. And my friends, my peers who've recently come through medical school, my past students who've gone through medical school, you know, I've got long conversations with

many of them talking about you know, ketymine. What what I know and what the research shows on ketamine is not what they were taught in medical school about ketemine. So there's there's lots of contradictions. And again, it needs to be a higher power than me. But I just want people to to think about the potential behind all of this, the fact that it is very effective and is growing in popularity because it is helping people deal with their psychotropic

issues much more effectively than most normal psychotropic drugs. And I know, you know, my patients come to me, they pride everything else, and I'm still having you know, eighty to ninety percent effectiveness rates where nothing else worked for them before. Yeah, they did the studies. They did the studies in the VA with ketymine and PTSD and they had similar results doctor, like you know, in an eighty percent of effectivity in relieving the symptoms of post

traumatic stress disorder because of ketemine. But once and for all, ketamine in and of itself does not and would not suppress respiratory function the way propofol would, or the way these other drugs that Matthew Perry was on or fentanyl does, I e. George Floyd, I mean, ketamine does not do that. It's not one of the side effects of the use of ketamine. Correct. Correct, And in fact, you know, if we go all the way back to Michael Jackson, you know his doctor had given him propofol to

help him sleep because nothing else was working. And you know, now a lot of my emergency room doctors tell me that the standard of care is not propofol but what they call keta probe. It's a it's a combination of ketamine and propofol because you don't have to have a higher rates of propofol for it to work and be effective. And again, ketymine helps control that respiratory issue

going in there. So I think I think we have a lot of questions that need to be answered from from this autosity report, you know, and once the full report becomes available to the public, if it ever does, Uh, it would be really nice to sit down with with with a group of professionals who are truly experts, you know, like like we said before.

You know, I've done the research, and I do the psychology side of things, and you know, CEO of consider Dot Clinic and worked with hundreds of physicians nationwide, communicated with doctors around the world on the use of ketymine for psychotropic use, and you know, none of us have ever experienced anything like this. Now, I will say, when you start mixing Christians

and maybe one doctor doesn't know the other doctors prescribing different things. And my my concern is that you know the medications that you know, especially when when the medication that ukronophone and whatever, yeah, that we're talking about, that medication is only prescribed a day at a time. Maybe he got some of this medication not so legally right, And well I'm just docularly so sadly our time is up, but I just want to wish you and yours a very

merry Christmas and you are once again amazing. This is the nightcap on seven hundred WLW News Traffic and Weather News Radio seven hundred w l W Cincinnati. Big traffic problems on I seventy five in northern Kentucky. This is the nine thirty report. I'm Matt Reeese breaking now a deadly crash on seventy five North near Richwood tonight. It's been jamming up traffic since about seven o'clock this evening, right after the heart of rush hour. Couple of vehicles involved, we

understand, but no other details have been released. We only know that I seventy five is shut down in the Richwood area, and the backup is all the way to Walton on seventy five and sizable backup on northbound seventy one, and that backup is all the way to Verona Mudlick Road, that is that exit. So unfortunately, traffic has been sitting for a couple of hours and may well be sitting for a much longer time now as we wait for that

accident to be cleared on northbound seventy five in Richwood. If you're on the road across Ohio, tonight State Department of Transportation treating the roads after snow and much colder temperatures today, featuring snow squalls here in the Sins area, some blinding snow at times, and of course that can make the road slick.

Drivers should be extra alert tonight. Still have some of those snow squalls out there that can quickly change visibility and cope the roadways and create some slick spots, especially all those bridges and overpasses with the cold air underneath, they tend to freeze first, and that's really where drivers need to be extra attentive tonight.

That's Matt Bruning with the Ohio Department of Transportation parts of northeast Ohio, the Cleveland area under a winter storm morning or a winter weather advisory here in the Tri State not seeing anything but a few more flurries tonight, and that's

probably going to be the case through the overnight hours. Traffic and weather together now and no other big traffic problems in the Cincinnati area now other than on North Pound seventy five in Richwood. Now the latest forecast from the Train Heating and Cooling Weather Center on news Radio seven hundred WL in the Tri State, weather for tonight. We're going to a gradual clearing. A few snow showers early, but will be clear by the morning in a lower twenty two.

The problem is is the cold. It's gonna feel like the teens are single digits our Tuesday, then sunshine and we continue cold. A high of just thirty five fair at night and we're down to twenty three. From your severe Weather station, I'm nine First Warning Chief Meteorologist Steve Rawley, News Radio seven hundred WL double temperature twenty eight degrees in Cincinnati. Got a few snow showers in the eastern suburbs, otherwise pretty much clear on radar. I've been following

a shooting in Covington tonight. Happened around sixth and bake Well. Covington police just announcing that a man was shot in the foot. They do not believe there is any danger to the public, and there's no indication yet from police whether they have a suspect in custody or not. There is a new president of the Cincinnati Police Union. He is Ken Cober, who succeeds Dan Hills,

the head of the Cincinnati Fraternal Order of Police. A deputy with the Proble County sheriff's department is dead after a wreck on State Route five OZHO three in West Alexandria. Earlier today, He's deputy Joshua Hamilton, was killed when his cruiser struck another vehicle head on. Driver of that vehicle, thirty six year old Michael Gayheart of wes Elkton, was also killed in that collision. Two weeks from today, it'll be twenty twenty four, and that means some

new laws will be taking event. The Social Media Parental Notification Act goes into effect January fifteenth. This did get a bit of attention while under consideration by lawmakers. It requires companies to get parental permission for those under sixteen who want to use social media. A similar law in Arkansas was blocked by a federal judge not long after Ohio passed its version. Utah has one as well,

but that doesn't start until the spring. Also, Ohio's minimum wage goes up January first, thirty five cents more per hour for untipped workers twenty cents more per hour for tipped employees. In addition, Ohio lawmakers will still be working on changes and clarifications to the marijuana legalization law in the new year, I'm Jack Crumley, News Radio, seven hundred Wall Double Gas closing Bell Wall Street Today now gained a point SB five hundred gain twenty one. Nasdaq was up

even more by ninety one nine thirty five. Next News ten Matt Reevez News Radio seven hundred WLW at Genesis Diamonds. We're rolling back prices in finance rates

so you can get that special someone the most special gift them are. Maybe it's deeply it is the nightcap on this Monday evening, December eighteenth, twenty twenty three, yet exactly one week until Christmas, and there are still people who are desperately caught in gulags in places like Washington, d c. On federal charges for their participation in what some have called an insurrection, the worst

thing since the Civil War. And they throw out all of these you know, expletives, you know, at these people and all these absolutes that these were people trying to take down the government and all of the rest of the things. And here we are a week before Christmas, and we're almost gosh, we're almost three years away from January sixth, twenty twenty one. To

talk to us about these poor people. As we approach Christmas still locked in this legal hell is January sixth, attorney, Patriot Freedom Project board member and a beloved previous guest back with us, Ed Martin. How you doing, Ed, I'm great here, Jeff. Thank you for having me on. Thanks for a chance on down the stretch. It's not always the you know, sometimes this time here people want to talk about easier subject. This is in some ways this is not a very hopeful and a positive subject. The

prisoners, as you mentioned. On the other hand, we believe in the goodness of the Lord and there's a lot coming, so we're we're more hopeful. But thank you for the chance to talk. Well, you know, well, as I mentioned, Patriot Freedom Project board member. For people who are unaware, what does the Patreon freedom Patriot Freedom Project do, Ed,

Yeah, we thank you again, Patriot Freedom Project and you go. Patriot Freedom Project dot com organizations started by one of the Day six family members when she and her family were caught up in this, Cynthia Hughes, and over the last and a half years we've raised money. We have helped a lot of lawyers for the j six defendants based on the need. You know, if you have money and family money or something. You know, you hire on lawyers. But a lot of the folks, especially the ones that are

stuck in jail, are ones that needed some help. But the other thing that Cynthia Hughes early on had the idea to do was transition a little bit our focus help the families. You know, most of the people stuck in jail, Gary, Jeff, you know this is I'm going to sound a little bit like maybe a bleeding heart, but their work. Since if you had money, you could get your way out, getting employer and fight your

way out. A lot of the folks that are stuck in jail are working folks, you know, and their families are are are missing Christmas if folks like the Patriot Freedom Project dot Com don't step up and provide and gift cards and sometimes buy meals. Although we also do things like one of the kids on the Jay six have beendant of prisoner. One of those things needed a bad infection, and so we do that. Patriot Freedom Product a nonprofit.

It's focused on helping the families and these defendants. And there's you know, look, there's been over a thousand arrests, but the Department of Justice and the prosecutors announce they're going to arrest one thousand more. They're particularly rushing to arrest them by the election next year. They want to make it part of the election meritive. But I care about that. I think it's terrible.

We'll talk about it, but most care about every couple of days we get a phone call from a new family that's got dad being taken away to prison with uncertainty in the future. So we have to keep doing the right things for we the people, and I think we're doing that at the Patriot Freedom Project. What is section fifteen to twelve D two And most of these January sixth defendants, the ones that are in long term confinement or face the most

serious charges, are charged first with section fifteen twelve C two. Yeah, well, look, this is it's so important, and the UTH Supreme Court just agreed last week to take this question up to the Supreme Court. Whether fifteen twelve that's how I referred to A fifteen twelve, whether it's been misapplied and misused again with citizens. But you know, very we started the program,

you mentioned how they have tried. The media and the left and even some on the Republicans side have tried to call January sixth and insurrection all this stuff. One of the ways they did that legally was to use fifteen twelve. Fifteen twelve is the fallon and it's a faunty with up to twenty years in jail. Many many of the prisoners were charged with trespass, which is

a misdemeanor. Vandalism a misdemeanor, maybe another miss and then this Telly and when you and then the court said, oh my gosh, these are dangerous. Perhaps sellings will have to hold them. It was used as a weapon against the systems in a way that had never been charged for it. By the way, Trump discharged with it. But back to fifteen twelve. It was designed after Infron twenty years ago. It was designed to be about evidence

and whether the integrity of evidence was manipulated in a process. It was not meant to criminalize lobbying or even advocating or whatever you call what happened in the Capitol. There was no way this law was written that way. And so people are like, wait, why are you doing this? And when you look at it closely, you realize fifteen twelve has been used to sort of

broaden the prosecutor's power to put the hammer down on people. And so the Supreme Court took this up and they're going to and there hopefully in the next

two months handle it. And probably two thirds of all the January sixth cases hang on this fifteen twelve provision, and so a lot is going to be decided, and we have a lot of optimism that of court it's going to look at it and say these people are bullies and even applied to the law and they and they did something nasty and you know, Gary Jeff, but the one thing I keep telling people in these interviews is that I care to get it reversed and using the law and the fact that the judges in DC

didn't stop it, and if the prosecutors contt it isn't outraged. So there's a lot of attention finally on this, and we're optimistic. It sounds a lot to me ed that the people who are applying and charging these people with Section fifteen twelve are actually violating Section fifteen twelve by manipulating the evidence. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're you're not far off. But let me tell you, you know, and Gary Jeff, you know, I you know, we do talk for a living. People say, well, you guys,

you know, come up with things and keep talking. But other way, as I say this, this is not a conspiracy. The guy who came up with this, this broadening of this loose law twenty years ago is a guy named Andrew Reisman, who then became a lieutenant on the Moller investigation. And I'm the Moull investigation Archie Tamueller used fifteen twelve. Use fifteen twelve against Trump because it's so broad. It basically says, obstruction of an official

proceeding means anything that you think is an official proceeding. And then anything that I think is obstruction, we'll call it that and we'll charge with the twenty year felony. Well, Andrew Weisman and then his acolytes are the ones who are doing this to the citizens. So this is a I used the law kind of a by way. He was under George w So I'm not this

is government government dominating with the people. Is happening far too much. Yeah, I agree with you, and you know what, to be honest with you, I don't understand why they didn't charge Congressman Bowman Jamal Bowman with obstruction of official proceedings, because that's exactly what he did when he knowingly pulled that fire alarm to prevent a vote on the hill. Ed Martin, thank you very much. If people want to find out more about the Patriot Freedom Project,

where would they go? Yeah? Yeah, Patriot Freedom Project dot com. And there's a special button for our Christmas drive. We love that people support us and it has done a year. Prayer is powerful, So keeping prisoners, especially their family and their kids in your prayers this time, and thank you as always, carry Jeff for the chance. It's all you bet. Ed Martin with us tonight in the nightcap, next we'll switch gears.

The wild Man returns. Meanwhile, in the enchented forest, Goldielots walks into a house, Hello anyone here, and decides to enjoy an afternoon of listening to Eddie and Rocket. Those guys are funny. Here is incredible guests, amazing news and lots of lucks. The funny Poppy, careful, Todi loots Pears live in that house. Oh they're harmless. All they do is talk

about toilet paper, toilet papers. Yeah, they're really weird. Bears, Edie and Rocky give your day a fairy Tale and Eddie and Rocky tomorrow afternoon on seven WLW, It's the wild Man Dennis wild Man Walker joining us again on a Monday night on seven hundred WLW wild Man. The Bengals are still in it. If we could only, if we could only have gotten the Bills to lose last night, But they kind of look like they're a team of destiny. Do you think that the Bengals may become a team of destiny

down the stretch here? After all of the doubts and after all of the hand ringing, and after all of the injuries, do you think they really have a shot to just win out and be there? What would you look the next three games? They definitely have a shot to win out. And the way they won that game against Minnesota, I mean, I'm sure a lot of people had left the building. Here. Here's here's the deal here. I was in the car whole time listened to the game because I had

a game at Indian Hill I had to announce. So when I got in the car, they were down seventeen seventeen to three, and I heard got one touchdown as I was driving home. And then they can get read of the score. The other touchdown the time again, I couldn't leave the car. I figured, mother off the car, Gary, I would jae them. So I stayed in the car the whole time and listen to it on seven hundred WW and sure enough they come back and you know, beat the

Vikings and overtime. Maybe that crazy catch and touchdown by t Higgins and then that that passed the Todler boyd when there was like three guys right in front of him and it gets some ball goes right in the toddler boy's hands and he runs forty something yards and sets up the field go by McPherson. I mean that they could be definitely a team of detatement. The football gods right now are liking the Bengals. Well, Pittsburgh is seemingly cannot stop the run.

The Pittsburgh Steelers cannot stop the run and really have not proved that they can run the ball effectively. And we're playing against the weir the are playing against the Steelers on Saturday and in Pittsburgh and any other time of the year. The Pittsburgh game is always tough. I mean, let's face it, Bengals, Steelers, anything within the division is always tough. It's kind of

like zader Uc you never know, You just never know. Well, here's the thing what I want to find out about this game against the Steelers coming up Saturday. I just have a really and feelings aren't facts, but I have a really strong feeling that the Bengals are going to go into Pittsburgh and they're going to take care of business. And then you know, after that, my Kansas City Chiefs, who looked anything nothing like a championship a Super

Bowl championship team again this past weekend. The Bengals playing the Chiefs after that, and the Chiefs are not the Chiefs that we knew from last year, seasons before, and they can go into Kansas City and win that game, and then they face off against the Browns, and that that's the game that really concerns me. I mean, you gotta win, you gotta win each one of them. But the Browns are so strong on defense. I mean,

my god, well what do you what are your thoughts? Okay, Kate Browning, he didn't really come out and to say it, but he's gonna be looking for payback come Saturday afternoon because when he played against that Steelers being thrown in there he didn't play well, even admitted that after the game on Saturday. So I don't browning them to be really fired up to pay back the Steelers. The Steelers overall have just stunk it up. And they

do have a decent running game, but for quarterbacks they both stink. I don't know they're gonna use for Bussy or Mason or somebody out of the stands. The Bengals run attack has been great as of late. I don't look, I don't see the Bengals losing this game. I mean, they're gonna so fired up to pay those Steelers back. And then they, like you said, they live on to Kansas City, who have set the world on

the fire after the Browns. The Browns might be in the situation and Gary Jeff and they come here, they've already clinched the birth and the playoffs, and they may be resting with a bunch of guys and the matter whether they win, win or lose. Let's keep the focus here. Let's beat the Steelers. Let's beat the Steelers on Saturday. We'll worry about the city and the Browns from you know, down down the road. Yeah, yeah, you're right. It's one game at a time because they don't play five at

a time, but it's one game at a time. I love Jake Browning's demeanor in press conferences, uh you know, in postgame interviews. He just seems so unaffected by it all, you know, And and he has that same kind of reaction that Burrow does to situations where other quarterbacks have and Mike Pan and even with people in his face, he doesn't seem to really be affected by it. He just plays the game and he has that kind of

Joe cool kind of demeanor, don't you agree? Absolutely? And I think a lot of it has to be it has to do with being around Joe Burrow and learning from what Joe has done so far. But Joe in his ear, you know, telling you know, look for this, look for that, you know, just you know, take it, you take it as it comes to you. The Bengals are gonna win this game one condifted. Stop the Steelers running attack. And I've got a decent running attack with

Najee Harris, but that's all they've got, That's all they have. And then bron right now is on fire. I mean, this is this is a great this is the way this is working out here. Gary, Jeb, this could be this would be a movie. The Bengal's gonna end up gonna win the whole thing. But I don't want to go that far right now. I told you I'm start the ben still had a chance. They were still alive, and they're very much alive for a chance they make the

playoffs. I thought when when went down, that was it. I really did, and I said so, And I am so so embarrassed for jumping the gun. So we're not going to jump the gun the other way. I agree, all right, wild Man Walker, always a pleasure, my friend. And I guess Merry Christmas. We'll talk to you sometime after the into the new year, because uh, yes, Merry Christmas to you.

And let's just uh, let's just kick those Steelers butts on Saturday. And if you're looking for a good deal, I'm sure you carry a bunch of copies in your car.

Holiday weekends or joyous time sometimes too much fun can make roadways even into another hour of the nightcat here on seven hundred w LW joining us again. I'm so glad she could make time. I mean, everybody is rushing to get everything done before the holidays hit, trying to finish up those last little pieces of work before we can actually go and enjoy family and friends in a celebration of

Christ's birth. But I'm glad again conceee her pieces on substack and many other places. She's one of the most I think influential conservative thinkers and writers out there today. Cheryl Chumley joins us for a few minutes tonight. Cheryl, how are you? I am great. Thank you so much for having me. It's such an honor to be with you. And Merry Christmas. She

will Merry Christmas to you as well. First and foremost, maybe it's time to redefine what a conservative is, a true conservative and a true liberal, because there are a lot of people on the left who call themselves or are referred to as liberals, and I don't consider them to be liberal at all. And there are people who fly under the moniker of being conservative, and when I look at the things they do versus the things they say, and

how they act, and who they ally themselves with. I don't think they're very conservative classically at all. Do you agree with me? I do. And that's very interesting what you say, because if you have to sum up right, what liberals are, certainly the Democrat Party has grown much more communists.

They're barely they're barely old timey conservative principles. It's much more globalist in vision, which is why we have so much of China, you know, being allowed to exert its influence both of the culture and economy in America.

So it is very distressing to see that the star division between the Democrat Party and Republican Party where liberals and conservativism, that those lines are being blurred, and what we're seeing takes place in both parties on both political ideologies more and more is much more anti American. However you look at it, yeah, yeah, And I think that's the best way to describe it, or to define it, is anti American, anti what the founding fathers had in mind

for this country, anti what the Constitution calls for from a federal government. And you know, the people like Ronald Reagan who talked about, you know, less government and smaller government and the people who have done that through the years, to a certain extent, they did actually try to achieve those things.

And Donald Trump another excellent example with you know, all the elimination of regulations, but yet the government just kept growing bigger as a result of the fact that you know that it's tough to get in even if you're in the belly of the beast. It's tough to turn that beast around, especially with the years of large s and actually flying in the face and being anti American

at its core. I think that the people are confused about what the federal government or government in general's role is supposed to be in our daily lives, and it's actually supposed to be very minimal. But more and more we see that that's not the case. And you make a good point about how tough it is to turn the government around. Right once that train has taken off

by the station, you can't stop it and turn it back. And for instance, look at what happened with the attacks on our World Rade Center, and out of that rapidly came the Patriot Act. And within that Patriot Act came the power of government or deep state intelligence to surveil American citizens if need be, and to go get warrants for those surveillance in a court called the

Finds a court which is a secret of court. And now we have those powers grown so far beyond the scope of what they were intended to be, which is just to root out terrorism and save America from another September eleventh, to the point where we don't even know what's going on in terms of our intel any longer. And then you look at Congress, right and they have the ability right now, or they did, to reel back the FISA course and defund Section seven oh two and take back some of those powers, and

they fail to do it. So when you talk about how difficult it is once government seizes a liberty or a power, it's very difficult to take that power back and put it at the hands of the people, I would say it's impossible. And that's part of the problem that we're facing. Our government has grown so big, you know, we're just fighting to keep it from

growing more, never mind waving back what we've already lost. Cheryl Sumley is our guest tonight on the Night Camp, and Cheryl, I wanted to ask you in regards to the chance to reel back the powers of PISA when we saw the abuses of PHISA during the Trump Russian collusion hoax. What prevented these so called conservative Republicans from voting to do that, Well, I think they're a hatred of Donald Trump. Right. There's a problem that I've noticed in

the Republican Party for some years now. Okay, they automatically fall in favor on the side of police, on national security, on even intelligence. And if you look at over the years where we've had Black Lives Matter and stand down, hands up, stand down, that kind of thing, and you've had defund the police movements, the Conservatives have said factically stood on the side

of police and national security and citizens safety. Rightly so, but they've gone so far that they've failed to address problems within policing or the problems with national security and so forth, because they don't want to be that conservative voice that is aligned with such a racial group as Black Lives Matter or given the police

or something like that. So part of problem is that Republicans in office don't want to make that step to reel back any type of provision that seems to broad national security for Americans because they're thinking of their campaigns right to think of their next run for of their seed and how their opponent might paint their votes on reeling back those powers. Then they'll be painted, they'll be characterized as

an anti American Democrat outlining type of Republicans. So I think that's part of the problem with speed well, and you highlight that, and I think that's absolutely dead on the money, Cheryl. But the other thing that it should point out to all of us who believe that the Constitution is the law of the land, the rule of law on this country, and should be and should be strictly adhered to, is that the Constitution when it was when it

was written and then approved, call for citizen lawmakers. And we have professional politicians right and left. And I don't know that term limits is the way to solve that problem. But I mean, if we could just get back to what the Constitution calls for, which meant that someone would come out of their farm field representing the place where they lived, and serve for a couple of years or four years, and then they'd go back home to their business.

The banker, the lawyer, the cop, any of those people, even the homemaker would you know, would say you know, this is my civic duty to serve. I'm going to get elected and I'm going to go and represent, you know, the bosom of my existence in my community. And then I'm going to come back home and continue to live my life. When there's very few out there that do that. I mean, how do we solve that problem? How do we bring back the citizen lawmaker in this

country? That's really a matter of morality, right because founding fathers warned us that our nation could only remain limited government in scope if the people of the nation were moral and virtuous. Because it's not the morals who need big government to tell them how to act and to force them to behave in certain ways that are acceptable and orderly to society. It's the immoral, it's criminal,

the thug and so forth. And so the problem with a government that doesn't know its boundaries, its moral boundaries and what should be rightly it's political boundaries that it's a part time jump to serve in office, and more than that, it's an honor and it's a position of humble surface, not tyrannical dictate.

But the problem with returning our nation to that type of government system is that we have to address the morality first, because so long as we have people in this country that are turning away from God, turning away from church, mocking biblical principles, denying the facts of our founding, that we were founded on a concept of quests for religious freedom and then ideal of individualism rooted

in rights coming from God and liberties from us. Until we get back to that, then our political system is just going to be a reflection of a culture and society which is all about me, me, me, grab the power, grab what I can get most in first and best, and politicians in the day and age are just granted a free lane in getting special entitlements that the rest of us can't. You talked about individual liberty, and you know, versus the group, the collective, which is communism, It's Marxism,

socialism, whatever you want to call it. It's evil. Collectivism is individualism is what this country was based on and what it's supposed to be all about individual liberties of each individual person, each individual citizen. When you when you talk about that though, and you talk about are rights given to us by God? Are an alienable rights given to us by God? And they're supposed to those God given rights are supposed to be protected by the government,

so you know they're not they're not infringed upon individual rights. Uh that we're talking about over group rights, because group rights are the things that have been given by the government. You know that the the special set asides for certain certain individuals, certain people, special people, those rights have been given by the government. And the thing that people need to understand Cheryl, and I hope you'll agree with me, is if the government gives you rights, they

can also take them away. But if God gave you the rights the government, no one can take those away and the government needs to defend and protect those Well, that's absolutely right, and that's why we're facing such a problem right now, because the government has reached a point where they are given free reign on deciding who gets the rights versus who does not get the rights.

And that's why you have so much lobbying going on at Capitol Hill, because there's a big scramble to be recognized for the rights to receive taxpayer dollars versus the rights to receive special interest measures and genders and the rest of us in America, the hard working Americans in America are basically put at the jeopardy of politicians and Capitol Hill now to determine whether we have the right to self determine whether we have the right to make a living for ourselves, or we have

a right to worship freely. And I'm referring back to the coronavirus years because that's how quickly we lost all those rights that are supposed to be in this country. God didn't, but we came to a point in a very quick overnight period of time where with the government telling us whether we could go to work or not, go to church and go to school. So this is

the state of peril that America faces. And I'm telling you that the only way to get back to a time in America where we have individual rights again, the only savior for America is God, and that means Americans must turn back to biblical truths, go to church, train your children in a proper way to go. So government naturally is a little bit fearful of the people. It doesn't take such you know, joy and needs in exerting its will

right on. And also the freedom of speech issue, and you mentioned the coronavirus years, which you know we could be write down knee deep in him again, if the powers it be so decided that we were just getting a little too uppity with our liberty again, I think that freedom of speech was limited to what the government approved narrative was. That's strictly Soviet style government. And it happened in America, and it's still happening to a certain extent.

But there are some rays of light in substack. Last week week you wrote about Alex Jones from Info Wars being reinstated to X by Elon Musk, and you call it a major victory for free speech. A lot of people find Alex Jones reprehensible. They find his statements and some of the things that he

said and done repugnant, and I can understand that. But there's a big difference between the things that Alex Jones may say that you find offensive and then defending speech on a campus like Harvard that calls for the mass extinction of a whole group of people. That's not freedom of speech, is it. You know, there's a big difference between Alex Jones and what's taking place on taxpayer funded college campuses under the watchful eyes of the administrators, who at the same

time prohibit conservatives say from going there to speak. So on college campuses, let's just deal that first, because that has a few more issues to it. On college campuses, you have in place a system that's largely in many cases tax paid. Right, So now we're talking about the entire nation having an interest in what goes rolled on that college campus and in other instances where

it's private. But the idea that a college administrator or a group of students on college can decide and determine who's allowed to speak there versus who needs to be shouted down and driven off campus practically, bricks and sticks is abhorrent, very anti American, and very anti college because college campus are supposed to be the place where you go to learn, and not just learn book learning,

but also how to deal with dissenting opinions in regular life. And the both Palestinian protesters are calling for the eradication of entire nation of people and their countries. But that's a little bit different than having, say Charlie Kirk go and talk about conservative principles. And now when you're talking about Alex Jones has hump him really quickly if you don't like what he has to say. So look,

you know what it's too bad, don't listen to him. That's called freedom that in a free society, speech is protected for the offensive speech. We don't need protections from nice speech that says nothing. That's how politicians speak, right, they talk on both sides of their mouths and say nothing. It's a skill, it's a political skill. But you don't need protection for

that because it makes people feel good. It's Alex Jones's type of speech that raises what's called conspiracy theories, which isn't you know in some people's worldviews, that's a questioning attitude, not a conspiracy theory. See, it's that type of speech that the founders in visions needful of protection. And that's what they were talking about when they brought us the First Amendment real quick in our last

minute. Cheryl Chimley is our guest, your prediction, get out your crystal ball if you have one, Cheryl, If you don't, just think real hard about it, and you know what's happened in the past going forward. Do you think that they will be successful and they being the deep state in

putting Donald Trump in jail before the election. No, no, I don't, but that is what they based their election successes on Jack Smith is on a fast track schedule to get Donald Trump convicted in March or before the elections. So that's how democratsy campaigned because I have nothing else at this point exactly. Cheryl Chimley, thank you so much. Merry Christmas to you. God's

It gives some truth to give some light to the subject of climate change and CEO two and all the rest. This is not the information you're going to get from a UN climate panel, to say the Lady Store or John Carrier al Gore. This is actual data and it does not support a lot of the crazy claims that have been made and presented as scientific fact by the green side. Joining us once again is the guy who a geologist and also head of the CO two coalition in Washington, d C. Author of The Inconvenient

Truth and now a very Convenient Warming. Please welcome back Gregory Ryan wright Stone, who is breathing and expelling CO two just like I am, Greg wright

Stone. That's how are you, sir? Oh good? And that you know you're every time you exhale, you're breathing out about forty thousand parts per milli Yet and of course the current ambient CO two is about four hundred parts per million, and so that forty thousand were breathing out is actually adding huge benefits by helping to increase the CO two levels and then increasing corrupt growth.

But of course, but of course the other side, Greg is always saying that we've got to we've got to limit CO two, we've got to cap that stuff. There are places in Europe where the cows have big bags on their back ends to trap the CO two or trap the methane so they can sell it to somebody else. But they think they're doing the environment good by

doing that, and maybe not so much. And of course the same people came out and admitted that our breathing is actually contributing greatly to the Earth's carbon footprint. But as you say, and as a fact, back you up, as the science backed you up. The real science more CO two is a darn good thing. Yeah, And that's really the just the overall theme

of my new book. It's called a Very Convenient Warming, How modest warming and more CEO two are benefiting humanity And boy, just about by every emetric we look at, Earth's ecosystems are thriving and prospering, and humanity is benefiting from that. And it's it's just this huge, huge positive message. It's just not a message, it's relaying the facts of what's really out there. And it's I call it the greatest untold story of the twenty first century,

that of a thriving Earth and a thriving humanity. And the last time we talked, We've talked a lot over the last several years now. I was always pushing this mantra of the there isn't a climate crisis. That's true, there isn't. But we've gone now well past that. From there is no climate crisis to oil boy, Earth, Your Earth is thriving and prospering, and it's because of warming and more CO two. The greatest, most obvious aspect of that is the greening of the earth, in the increase in the

in agricultural productivity. Boy, we're just breaking records year after year. In the book, as you've seen, I capture the eight greatest crops grown on Earth in terms of timeage produced, and all eight of those are just it. This goes back to nineteen sixty, just breaking records year after year after year after year. And it has to the three main things driving crop production. It's more higher temperatures, warming temperatures, more CO two driving CO two

fertilization and more photosynthesis. And three increased use of nitrogen fertilizers. And these nitrogen. Fertilizers are created from fossil fuels mainly natural gas. So all of these things working in tandem to increase food production that's outstripping the food production is

outstripping population growth in the world. And again that's something that should be celebrated and it should be the front page story on the New York Times that you know it never will be well, No, Greg and you make a good point about food distribution or food production outstripping the actual population. When we hear about famine and people starving, it is always because of humans, but not because of human's carbon output. It's because of radical governments that want to try

and starve people so they can reduce population and maintain greater control. I believe that anyway. But it's not because of the car somebody's driving with fossil fuels or the fact that they're using a gas powered stove or their lawn equipment. The people are starving in this day and age when there's really no need for it because of dictators and governments hoarding food and letting food spoil on docks and stuff for their own political purposes. It's not because we're not producing enough to

feed the planet. Like you said, we've got more than enough food for probably another two or three billion people if that's what happened, right, and think about everything that the climate alarmis is that just tab traveled back from Dubai and COP twenty eight. What are they pushing? What do they want us to do? They want us to emit less CO two and reduce it,

which again would hurt crop production. There talks about actually doing keem trails and blocking the sun by putting things in the aerosols in the atmosphere to block the sunlight. What would that do? It would it would greatly diminish crop production. Uh, so you're diminishing it by blocking the sun and decreasing CO two. And Fourth, they wanted to eliminate nitrogen fertilizer, and we saw how that went in Sri Lanka two and a half years ago when that country country's

president actually banned nitrogen fertilizer. He wanted to go green, he wanted to go organic. What they did and their entire agriculture based economic system collapsed inside of nine months. And because there is the food productivity just plummeted without nitrogen fertilizer. Well, so that's what it's really an anti humane Yeah, what the ultimate goal is to reduce population in general, it's not to it's not to ensure the future for your children and your grandchildren. It's to make sure

theyre is no future for many of us. So that you know, Bill Gates has been on record saying and he's always one of these people saying that it's scientific consensus, which of course there is no thing that the Earth is warming, and it's because of man made contributions. It's because of fossil fuels and CO two. But he stated publicly years ago that he thinks that the earth population should be about five hundred million. We need to get rid of

some people. It is anti human, and most folks don't see that. Well, I think you can predict one. I'm going to say you go first, out right, you know, you think there's too much, too populations, too high, set an example, go ahead, you know, if it's that important to you, But no, thanks, we don't. We were able to feed a growing population and it's not growing exponentially. It's

expected to flatten here in the next decade or two. And if it doesn't that we're still increasing our crop productivity without the other thing is one of the in my new book, I show corrupt crop productivity, population growth, and the number of acres planted has been basically flat. So we're not growing more crops because we're adding farmland that's ringing basically flat. The other thing we see is they talkt about deforestation, but no, what I find is reforestation and

forests have greatly expanded worldwide. There are a few places where there is deforestation going on. But why is it being deforested because they're kind of mature forests down into Carolina is to turn them into pulp and pellets to be shipped to the United Kingdom, where it's called green energy. Being caught cut down in Indonesia, the Philippines put up mono culture palm oil plants for biofuels. UH. Forests, grasslands across the United States are being covered over and cut down

to put up solar And I'm not going to call them farms. They aren't solar and wind industrial scale facilities. Using the word farm makes it sound too benign. These are not. They're plight on the landscape. Uh, they're horrible for endangered creatures. The wind turbines are an aerial quison art the butchers, balt Eagles, Golden eagles, uh, and even condors in California.

These there there's a growing, growing effort across the United States to push back on solar, these solar, industrial solar facilities, industrial scale wind turbine projects, and we have to we have to just say no. And also huge pushback now on CO two pipeline. You know what, they're trying to strip, strip CO two out of the atmosphere and pipe it, uh and use it to push put it underground. I mean, who put the idiots in charge? I always wonder we did, I guess, uh, but uh,

but yeah, it's it is amazing. The things I wanted to ask you about. The the bags on the back of cows that someone was referencing they saw somewhere. I don't know if it's in England or but they're trying to trap that gas that comes out of the the business end of the cow and then sell it as fuel, which I guess is mostly methane. Have you have you seen that or heard about that? No, well, I've heard stories. I didn't think they'd actually gone to that much, but of

a of a route to do this. No methane is is just a minute. It is greenhouse gas, but it contributes very little to the warming of the planet. Uh CO two contributes very little. But methane is is a fraction of that too. So now we shouldn't we shouldn't. Most of the methane this produce is naturally occurring. So we think about all the millions of

buffalo that Romo states. They were emitting methane, and there were a lot more buffalo than there are cattle right now, Yeah, I mean so, yeah, cal flatulence is not contributing to the demise of the planet Earth. A very Convenient Warming is the name of a new book by CO two head Gregory Wrightstone. He is our guest for the next few minutes, and greg let's talk about specifically this time of year, Christmas, across the United States

and the basics. What's the average high temperature for Christmas, say, over the last almost close to two hundred years. I can tell you what that is. It's forty two point five degrees fahrenheit. And that's from all the eleven hundred plus stations across the lower forty eight of the United States. What's interesting, I went as a little preemptive strike because I knew that Christmas.

They usually come out with some It'll be in the API or the Washington Post or some other rag where they'll talk about how this is Christmas is warmer than decades, the warmest Christmas, the warmest Christmas. It's always the warmest Christmas on record or ever, right, And the records go back to in the United States, go back to what the eighteen fifties or something like that. Yeah, so you know, or scientists say, well, no, I

looked at the actual data and it's interesting. There are wild swings and temperatures on Christmas Day ranging from fifty five degrees fahrenheit down to under twenty degrees fahrenheit on Christmas Day, but there's no discernible trend either up or down. And that's going back to eighteen ninety five. All the while CO two carbon dioxide by man has been increasing and increasing the atmosphere, so no Christmas Day temperatures

have not been increasing. So someone tells you that, you go to the CO two Twitter site through Twitter feed or CO two Coalition Facebook page to learn to see that actual chart that I've got there. What was the climate like some two thousand years ago when my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was born in that part of the world. Was what was the earth's climate like generally and specifically there in Bethlehem for example. Well, he lived in a fortunate time.

It was the time of It was called the Roman Warm period the time Christ and it was much warmer than temperatures today. We know that because, for example, the Romans were growing citrus in the north of England near Hadrian's Wall. Well, you can't do that today. We have other historical records of all of the groves being much far of the north during that time and during the time of Christ too. The Roman army, of course, it marched on its belly and they got most of their green from North Africa.

You don't think of Tunisian and Egypt being a great producer of of of wheat, but it was at the time of Christ, so it was much warmer. Uh. Life was good unless you were an early quick Christian and you were being persecuted or or nailed to across. But for the most part, food was bountiful, and uh, you know, it was a time to celebrate and it was. It was really when it started getting colder during the

decline of the Roman Empire. We know that there were Germanic tribes coming down out of the north, a lot of the great civilizations, but primarily Roman impart was the big one that declined as it started getting cold, and we see that again. I captured an entire section in my book. I devote to the Correlation's new book of Very Convenient Warming, to the correlation between human history and temperature history, and find that warmer times were much much more beneficial

to humanity than we're cold. The Colbert periods were horrific, and I might mention too. This book is not available on Amazon. It is only currently available at the website, and the website is Convenientwarming dot com. That's Convenientwarming dot com, or just google Convenient Warming and you'll get right to it. It's been huge if you liked my first book and can be actually gonna love this new one A Very Convenient Warming, Oh absolutely. And it's chock full

of data, that's the thing. And the data is I got been fully researched. Go ahead, good yet, I got a phone call. This smart really lifted me up from a huge He's bought probably one hundred and fifty of my first book. He just hands about the people. He's this huge, huge supporter. He called me out. He said, Greg, Greg, you hit a home run. I just got the book, he said, Man, he says, he said, I just this book. The

first one is good. This is much better. So if you like Inconvenient Facts, and I know a lot of your listeners were supporters have gotten the new one, you got to go get and tell me real quickly about the things that the CO two Coalition is doing to help educate children. Just in the last minute or so, tell us about what people can find at CO two Coalition as far as teaching tools, the truth about climate and CO two where do people go to floor name, Go to CO two Learning Center dot

com. CO two Learning Center dot com. And we've got our science based books, videos, and lesson plans that we're developed by doctor Sharon Camp. She's an ap retired AP science teacher.

because this is one of the first songs. As a kid growing up in the suburbs of Chicago, I was of these kids that I listened to WLS and the top forty Pops stations, but I was scanned the dial and I found the black station, which I believe was WVOL, and they played great tunes like this. I wasn't here on WLS, and so I've always really appreciated the fact that for African Americans there was a distinct kind of broadcasting that was theirs and theirs alone, and you could call it radio. Jim

Crow, I don't wish to destrive it that way. I think that different strokes for different folks, as we like to say. And this man has made a fifty plus year career of being a different stroker on the radio in Cincinnati. And definitely, if I was going to include everybody that was essential to radio listening audiences in this market over the last fifty years, if I if I left him out, I would be doing a great disservice to the

listeners and to history. Lincoln, where joins us tonight for our special segment on American history and the radio in the night Camp, Lincoln. It is my honor to have you with us. Hey, Gary, Jeff Walker is great to be with you. And I was wondering about that song A thin line between eleven eight. I thought you were telling me there's a thin line between love and hate between us. I didn't know. Well, you can draw any inferences you want, Lincoln, but no, that was not specifically

directed. It was it was one of those songs I could have played the moments love on a two way street. Oh yeah, you remember that. That was great. I remember that one, and it's definitely remember that. You know what the stylistics, the stylist stylistics even better, La la La means I love you. That's that's actually the delphonics, and I don't mean correct a legend mixed up the delphonic. They all sounded light, Yeah, they do. So I want to find out about your path on the radio

here in Cincinnati. And it's more than five decades, which is just incredible. You know. I have been fortunate enough to be at WLW. Now in February, it'll be twenty seven years. I've been doing the Saturday morning show and that is unheard of and very uncommon in our business, as you know, but you have been on the radio consistently in this market for is it fifty years? As a matter of fact, I was talking to Randy Michaels the other day and he was talking about in nineteen seventy three when he

came into town. He was talking about how boring Cincinnati radio was until he found fourteen eighty and I was doing a live broadcast over at the Alms Ballroom and the broadcast didn't start to midnight, and man, we were really rocking it up there, and he got so excited he came over to the Alms Ballroom, but he was afraid to come in because he didn't know what they would do to a white guy at twelve midnight over at the Arms Hotel there

called it was called the Arms Ballroom then it's now the Arms Apartments now right there at the corner of Victory Parkway and McMillan. So this was a midnight show you were doing from the ballroom where you just playing records? Did you have live performances? What was going on? It was a live broadcast. I was on the air in the afternoons then, but they would you know, it would be a live broadcast from midnight until three, and the place

stayed open. They didn't sell liquor in there, but you know, people would probably go back and forth to their car, but it was mainly you know, people would come. They would have live bands there and all types of things. But we had a lot of fun. And Randy Michaels that's when he first heard me at the Alms Ballroom. Every time I say he talks about he came into town and heard me on the end and he came

over there and parked, but he was afraid to come in. Let me ask you this, Lincoln, where would Brandy Michaels, the young Randy Michaels have been in trouble? Had he come to the arms ballroom. Now you know him, he would have been okay. This was nineteen seventy three, and I wasn't during the sixties riots or anything like that, so he would

have been okay. I think, and this is just my own personal opinion, I think that there is a lot less, especially black white racism in this country among most people than there has been maybe ever in this country. I think there's a lot less of it than People are always talking about racism and hate, and I just I don't see it. And I interact with people of all skin colors and from all backgrounds as a bartender. And I'm telling you just as a general rule, when people talk about the fauxmen it

hate, the increase in racism, I just don't see it. What about you. It's still there. It's just not as uh covert as it you. I mean, it was it was overt then now it's covert. Everybody's keeping it under cover. But it's still there. Trust me, it's still there. And it's even I've become more of an issue since Donald Trump was president. I can tell you that. I know you don't want to hear that stuff. You can blame that, blame Donald Trump. I did.

I did in talking to you, I did want to ask you about that. And I think Joe Biden has been as divisive as Donald Trump ever could have been. So I got my name, all right, So here we go. Here we go. Two people that have since passed that you and I both know and both talked to on the air numerous times. Just some some ruminations and remembrances. Oh, let's start with the guy who was my buddy for a while until Trump came along, and then he decided he didn't

like me anymore, who sadly has passed. Sensible Don Lewis the bus driver, just your your thoughts, unsensible Don Well. I mean, he used common sense in a lot of things, but he said to things that some people just don't like to hear. And everybody thought he was a Republican. He was right wing, and I don't know who he voted for. He probably if he were alive, he probably wasn't he alive when Trump was president.

I'm trying to think, yes he was, and he would be the guy who would vote for Donald Trump and would tell you he voted for Donald Trump, and wouldn't make you know, wouldn't be afraid to tell you, no, that's that's that is not true at all. Lincoln and I know this personally because Don and I talked about it, and sadly this was the divide between Don and I and we didn't speak for probably a couple of years until his passing. He he absolutely hated Donald Trump, and it kind of

it kind of surprised me. I didn't have a problem with him hating Donald Trump or not voting for him. Yeah, but because he knew I did, he became just he turned on me like I can't even I can't even tell you how he turned on you. Donald Trump was because because of my support for Donald Trump, my voting for Donald Trump. He turned on me like you wouldn't believe Glenn from Mason. And I'll give you my Glenn from

Mason point first, and then I'll let you react to it. Glenn from Mason would if I said the sky was blue when it was obviously blue, he would tell me it was green. He would do anything to take the

other side, just just for the fun of it. You want to talk about somebody who could be very divisive, Glenn from Mason definitely had that ability of being just boisterous and no matter what you said, if you were of a certain ilk or a certain ideology, he was he was going to come after you with everything he had and he would make some strong arguments, but usually they were straw man arguments. So, so your thoughts on Glenn for Mason and Law was one of my best callers of all time. He would

go down as the top one or two callers that I've ever had. Glenn from Mason where you know, he stuck to his he did his research also. He did his research and he could give you numbers and facts and things like nobody else could. So, I mean, he knew what he was talking about. He wasn't just you know, trying to go against you. He had to fax the back back everything he said. He had to fax

to back it up. Well, yeah, I think he had half of the facts that supported his clause and then and then you know, the other half he kind of conveniently left out. I wanted to ask you about what changes you've seen in Cincinnati radio in fifty plus years you've been doing it, Linco and what had been the most impactful and just what do you see on the landscape of being someone who has been on the air here for as long as you have. Well, the major changes I've seen is well, i

mean, you know, the black stations. We still play black music, we still play R and B, we play you know, the oldies and all, you know, stuff like that. But I've watched the evolution of seven hundred WLW back when they used to play music to talk. Now, you know, I've seen that evolution. I've witnessed this, you know, every day. You know, when Randy first started with some kind of thing, Alan Gardner, Yeah, they sort of kicked off this top thing in

Cincinnati on seven hundred, and this thing has just grown now. And of course you know you're the big ones. You're the fifty thousand watt flamethrower here, and hey, what can I say? It has changed that way any everything else music is pretty much state where it's been Q one two, Warm ninety eight, GRR, State the thing, yeah, State the thing. Yeah, yeah, well, I mean other other than the station's formats.

And you mentioned Randy Michaels, and you know that's interesting that he said he was so excited to hear you on the radio in Cincinnati in nineteen seventy three when he first came here. But Randy instrumental in changing wl W into the big one. I mean, no one has contributed more to this station's success over the last forty years than Randy Michaels and the people he brought in. Eventually, like, Willie, tell me about your relationship with Bill Cunningham.

Uh, you know, people think we're enemies, and he's really a nice guy. We talk all the time. Matter of fact, I think I was supposed to be on the Stooge Report sometime this week. But you know, I've been knowing him for years. I was on the radio before him. I remember when he first came on the radio because you know, I used to follow any type of talk segments that they had on radio in Cincinnati. So I used to listen to Randy and Allen all the time. I

thought they were great. I used to love listening to them. So I've been a talk show junkie since the beginning. But I got my start playing music, you know, like most most good talk show hosts were former DJs. Oh yeah, MC Mike McConnell, former DJ, Fingers, former DJ. So they make the best talk show hosts. Well, thank you very much for the compliment. You didn't even know you were giving me because I started as a DJ in nineteen eighty and see, and you know didn't even

touch talk till nineteen ninety seven. Here, So tell me about that starting radio for Lincoln. Where where was it and what were you doing? How old were you? It was on an aircraft carrier called the USS Midwa. I was always interested in radio, and lo and behold when I was stationed on the Midway, they had a radio and a TV station. How about they needed bodies to get on the radio, and you know, they was

looking for people to work. AFRTS was sort of like the network. We would use the news from the American Vietnam Network and we would use their news every hour. But I was just one of the DJs that played R and B music on an aircraft carrier of about four thousand people. And that's really where I started. So you were like Adrian Cronauer and good Morning Vietnam. Yes, yes, well, only you weren't in country. You were on an aircraft carrier, on an aircraft carrier, and I start my show with

Good Morning Cincinnati. I start my show like that every day. Oh that's great, that's great. So when you got out of the service, then what did you do. There was a guy on w ci IN by the name of Jimmy Wonder. He had he worked at CION since he was a teenager. He was like in the eleventh grade on the air going to Waldert Hills High School. He would have an evening show at w c I N. He had a great voice. He was a natural for radio. Anyway.

I had kept in contact with him while I was in the Marines, and he told me he was leaving, going to a radio station up in Dayton w DAO. Yep, he was gonna work for that station, he says, So they're being opening here, you better get a tape together and get it over here as quick as you can. So he left in March, and I was discharged from the Marine Corps in March, so the timing

was perfect. I took my tape over to a guy by the name of Bob Long who was the program director, and Sonny Burns, who was the general manager, and I gave him my audition tape and the rest is history. And that's how I met Jim Scott. Because back in those days, you had to have your broadcast license from the ste if you're going to work and the engineers were not at the station. Do you remember those days? Oh, I had my third class FCC license so I could take transmitter readings.

In fact, the very first radio station I worked at was my FM college station at Volunteer State Community College in Gallaton, Tennessee. This is in nineteen seventy nine, and I not only had my license, but I had to turn on the transmitter because I was there in the morning, so I had to let that, I had to let the filaments warm up, and you know, it was a long it was a process, man. But yeah, with me, I had to study working after you know, I

was working afternoons and I was there. You know in the wintertime it gets dark. You know, you'd have to switch the power from daytime signal to the night signal. Yep, you know, we'd go from five thousand in a day to five hundred at night. And so the engineer they'd be gone by then. So I had to get that third class license with the broadcast endorsement. And that's how I met Jim Jim Scott. He was worried. He was saying, oh man, we got to take this test. I

gotta get my life. I said, I have to take the tests also, So we talked a little bit and we both end up passing the tests and we said, oh, we can keep our jobs. Now, tell me about James Brown and your experiences with the Godfather of soul. He was the man. He would come by every time he come to Cincinnati, w c i A would be one of the first places he would stop with his

newest release in hand. You know, every time he come by there, he'd always have a new record that was coming out and it would be a hit. Of course it was James Brown, and he would always come by and get in there. We talked to him on the air. He was I mean, he was a really nice guy. I love James Brown. He called me soul brother number two. Oh you were number two. I was number two. Well, listen, I appreciate so much some time here

to be part of my segment. I'm Nightcap American History on the radio Lincoln Where in the Spotlight this evening and uh, just remind people where you are and when you're on.

and you could find your own. I'm not incapable of doing that, but we have wonderful pr people out there who always are pitching guests who've got a book or you know, a new column out or a new piece that they want to get out to the American public in general. And we're one of those conduits, one of many. And I saw this and I saw the title Arab, like me an interest is Instantly my interest was pequked and I started reading about the author. He was also the host of our American Stories.

He's a Newsweek columnist and he happens to be Arab. I mean, he has that ethnicity in him. His name is Lee Habib and we welcome into the show tonight. Lee. How are you doing. I'm great, Thanks for having me on. So are you American born? I'm American born. Grandfather came from Lebanon on the father's side, and other grandparents came from Italy on my mom's side. Now, your grandfather came from Lebanon. The Lebanese have a people always think of them as being a Muslim, but there's

a large Christian community. Was your grandfather a Christian or was he a Muslim? Or he was a Christian, But folks in America always assumed I was a Muslim. Not that there's anything wrong with that. No, And what's interesting is there used to be a lot of Christians in Lebanon and there aren't anymore. There used to be a lot of Christians all through the Middle East,

and there aren't anymore. Not only your Jews hated through out the Middle East, but Christians are now pretty much universally disliked in the Middle East. And the Middle East has turned into a ninety one percent Muslim part of the world. Ninety one percent. And that's not it has not been that way forever. You know. One of the things about attacking Iraq and the persecution, prosecution and finally the death of Saddam Hussein and him being ousted from power.

When Saddam was in power, he was, from all I understand, someone who was sympathetic and a friend to Christians in Iraq. Was that the case? Well, I don't know that he was sympathetic to anybody per se. What he was was hostile. What he was hostile to with the crazies. And not that he was a good man, because he was a ruthless man. But he kept Isis and the radical Ras, radical Islamists at Bay and when that war started out game the Islamist out came Isis Boy, the

greatest victim aside from Muslims who were not seeking the craziness that ensued. Many Muslims died recklessly and needlessly, but so many Christians were purged from the Middle East as a result. It's still one of the great untold stories about religious persecution, is what happened to Christians throughout the Middle East over the last twenty years, all of the result of a vacuum of power that Saddam Hussein had

occupied before that time. That is exactly right. Lee Habib our guest Newsweek calumnist and host of our American Stories, and this piece Arab, Like me, what what was the inspiration? I guess a whole lifetime inspiration. But why did you want to get this particular personal story out to people? Lee, Well, because you know, being an Arab and having an Arab blessed name has been an interesting life. You know, there's been a lot of

terrorism done under the name of Arabs Muslims. I mean, it's not Indonesian Muslims blowing up the world. It's Middle Eastern Muslims, and a particular type of Muslim, a super radical, lunatic, fringe Muslim. And so I'm always sort of thrown into that group, and I never minded. For the most part, I was always treated very well by white people. I was always treated very beautifully by the country. My grandfather from Lebanon loved America.

Wept that the sound of God bless America or the flag. And what happened for me in my personal life was in nineteen eighty three, I'm in college and Lebanon is getting into a civil war and Israel's feeling afraid, and I write a column, a simple column or some I don't even remember what it was, but I simply defended Israel, and I defended America. I defended the West, and I really went after the radical Muslims that had been unleashed

since the revolution in Iran in nineteen seventy nine. The mules, we're going to mess up everything. And we now know they finance HESBLA and they finance a moss. But in nineteen eighty three, it was just starting, and if you remember, our marine barracks blew up and we lost more marines that day than since Iwajima. And so I thought I was taking a very simple stand that everyone in my college would agree with, which is that I stand

with America and I stand with Israel. I stand with freedom and the forces for good. America is not perfect, but Americas should be there. Well, my Arab friends instantly divorced me. How dare I side with Israel? Now? I expected that because my Arab friends were rabid anti semis, and the Arab world is filled with the very worst kind of antisemitism drilled into the Arab culture through cartoons, literature, a book called The Protocols of the Elders

of Zion. You are taught in most Middle Eastern countries from K to twelve that Jews are evil, that Jews are the devil that the and Jews have money is because they've stolen from others, the usual anti Semitic tropes that led to the programs of Russia and what happened to the Jews in Nazi Germany.

So the Arab world is filled with that stuff. But what was more interesting was how white people treated me, particularly the small group of radical progressors who were starting to take over liberal arts departments in the Northeastern universities like Columbia, the Ivy League, and my college fairly to Kinson University, which was a stone throw from the Columbia campus, and some of that radicalism had seeped into

some of our young faculty and some of our white students. I got a lecture from the white students explaining to me that how dare I be on the side of Israel, that they're oppressors, and that I should be with the oppressed because I'm an Arab, and that the Palestinians are the oppressed. They have no power. Israel has the power. Lebanon's a little tiny country.

Israel is a powerhouse country. How could I be siding with the white people from Israel and with white Americans. And this was my foray into the space of dealing with at the time a nascent and a burgeoning oppressed oppressor mentality creeping into the liberal arts departments and now that dominate the liberal arts departments. And there I was being not only expelled from my Arab group like blacks kicked out of the black group for being an uncle Tom. Actually, some some of

my ad friends called me an uncle Ahab because I was a trader. But worse, the white progressors explaining to me that I was white even though I have a very dark skin and in the summer, I'm darker than Barack Obama.

And they were telling you I was white because I thought white, and I thought white because, well, my grandfather, the stake he made in his life was coming to America and then trying to blend in with Americans and become white and embrace capitalism and embrace individual rights and property rights and all the

things that my grandfather loved and I love. So now I was not only in battle with my Arab friends, but with large, this small but growing group of liberal arts students now who were the beginnings of what we now see today forty years later as a mainstream faculty and large majorities of English major sociology, anthropology, all the kids in the liberal arts departments being trained under this

oppressor mindset. And there's one simple book, a book called Wretched of the Earth by Franz Banan, which was the hottest book on my campus and still to this day, along with a guy named Michael Fuco. When you read these two authors, you'll understand everything you need to know about the binary through

which the white progressives and all kinds of other progressives see the world. And that is the powerful and the powerless, the colonial, the colonizers and the colonized, the oppressors and the oppressed, and if you take the side of the oppressor, you're good and virtuous depressed. And if you take the side

of the oppressor, you're bad and you're out. And so I experienced the full wrath of that binary and come ten to seven when everybody was shocked, and how the Arab world was reacting, and how the campus is reacting. Not only wasn't I shocked, but the monsters marching on those campus were created by the faculties of the United States of America K to twelve and beyond. This is not some accident. This has been a work in progress for forty

years. And I was the first and earliest victim, way back in nineteen eighty three when this stuff was just starting to take hold in undergraduate facilities.

It had been a graduate school preoccupation critical ray theory oppressed oppressor mindsets in the sixties and seventies, and so it took those twenty years to go from the grad schools to the undergraduate and that's from the undergraduate into the K twelve through the schools of education, and then to sort of go unchecked with conservatives pretty

much. You know, we were asleep at the wheel and we sort of let all of this happen, and when the few of us would talk about it with friends, they go, oh, come on, come on, what can they do? They're allowed, They're stupid. That's nonsense. And the next thing, you know, that's our whole pretty much of our public education system is teaching this rubbish and not teaching the things that matter most, which is what is Western civilization and what is it done for the world.

I think that's staggering, I think to a great extent. Talking to Leejabi, Newsweek columnist Arab like me, he says, and Lee, it is this indoctrination that has been fomented over the last forty to fifty years on college campuses, and it is all about anti westernism, it's all about anti capitalism,

all of these things, anti colonialism. But isn't it also the nature And I remember being eighteen, nineteen, twenty years old, it's real easy, even if you're not indoctrinated, to get swept up in the Oh, look there's a protest on campus. I'm going you think there's a little bit of that too, just doing it just to belong even if you've not been

you haven't bought into the nonsense of the oppressor. Versus the opbreast. No, I actually have really deep feelings about this, if you've been educated properly as I was. I mean, if I'm sitting there reading Shakespeare, reading the Constitution, reading the Founders, I mean, this bounced off me like water off of camel's back. I mean it was nothing to me. Forget

a duck. It was nothing to me because I knew better. Not that there are an injustices that are perpetuated by colonizers, of course there are, but that everybody's been trying to colonize everybody forever. And the way we've done colonialism in America does not look like the extraction colonialism of the twelfth century or the Ottomans, or the or the Chinese imperialists or the Russian imperialists. Think about and I always say, compared to who? And are we really an

imperialist country? And so look, you're much more susceptible to this kind of logic and this kind of argument if you don't know the counter argument. This is why they stop teaching history. It's not an accident that we don't understand our own past, because if you don't know your own past, then it's easy to see only the sins of your past, but not the greatness of

our past. So if you grew up on the idea that our founders owned slaves, but you didn't know that everybody else owns slaves at the time, and that what's remarkable about our country and the White West is that we invented the abolition of slavery. And it was the Middle Easterns who gave up slavery last. It was the Africans who gave up slavery last. And it was the Africans who sold their own people, mostly to each other and then mostly

to the Middle East. And then once you know those facts, you don't excuse the fact that Jefferson owned slaves. But it pained Jefferson, it pained Washington. And remember Jefferson, one of his great acts with the Northwest Ordinance was to outlaws slavery in all those new states. So Jefferson was a man torn he owned slaves because he was a creature of his time. And we shouldn't judge men out of their context, because in seventeen fifty, nobody had

nobody in the world that outlawed slavery. So it's not that it's good. It doesn't mean we counted in slavery, but it just means that don't judge people out of their time and have historical context. But if you don't have historical context, and then you're told, oh, our founder's old owned slaves while sign a decoration that's aid all men are created equal, then what hypocrites? What a hypocritical nation? And my goodness, all of our entire capitalist

structure was built on the backs of slaves. And then you get these arguments that are not only not true, but they're not contextually relevant. They don't even mean anything. But again, if you've not read no books and had no counter argument, then it's easy to stir these kids up to protest because kids are naturally anti authoritarian. They want to argue against what their parents believe.

But if it goes beyond what the parents believe to what the culture knows about itself, then it's harder to flip the script, which is why the left has been for forty to fifty years rewriting, if not eliminating, the study of American history, historical and the Constitution. Yeah, historical context, real quick, talking to Leehabbee, We got just a couple of minutes left, Lee, and if if you can confine this to an answer that that

short, I'll applaud you as being brilliant. But you've been brilliant already. So here's the question historically, in the historical context, is there really such a thing as a Palestinian culture or a Palestinian language? I mean, who are these people that call themselves Palestinians? Really? Well, this is the question, right if you don't know the history, if you don't know who

is there really first? Right? So the Jews are there first, and then the Jews are expelled, and then yes, there are some indigenous people living there. There are people who might call themselves Palestinian. Where are they from? Who's Jordan? Do people know that Jordan is mostly Palestinian? That the Palestinians already of a state? And then when the partition happens in nineteen forty eight, you know, why are Jews able to turn their part of

the land into a thriving, thriving democratic republic, right? And why is it that the Palestinians struggling still? So it's not only who are they, but what's their claim? What's their claim? The land was stolen from them? They were there first, that's not true, not tr right. And moreover, everybody's had land taken from them during war and conquest forever, so under their logic, the Mexicans should be able to say, give us Phoenix,

it's ours and we're going to blow it up. Lately, they are taking it back as well as the rest of the world through the colonization that is happening through our lack of a border in the South. It's amazing. Look, no doubt, no doubt, And look, the colonization of the mind is what I care about. And the Marxists have worked hard at colonizing

the minds of our young people. And until we get back to the study of Western civilization in American history, we have to have some narrative to replace that or that will continue to be the triumphal That will be the triumphal narrative.
