Hang on so bad, So they hang out go so bad. So then oh hey hie, oh stooping please in a very bad for the chance and everybody times a good man snoopy down stoopay. I don't care what you daddy do because you know, snoop maker, I'm in love with you. And so I said, now so bad, So they hang out hang go so bad. Born in a place called Fort Recovery, Ohio, near Selina, moved to Indiana with his brothers family and formed a band called the McCoys doing
a song written by someone else. It became a number one hit for that band, Rick Randy the McCoys, And it had its origins I am told, and I've done the research, and so is a friend named Ron Stephen in the Columbus area. That it has ties to cater Illinois and Nashville, Tennessee. And a black groupe named the Vibrations who this song was based upon, that did a song called My Girl Sloopy in nineteen sixty four, full year before Derringer, Lorn Rick Zeringer and the McCoys took it to number one.
So anyway, happy birthday to Rick Derringer and Moore on the Man Who's seventy six to day with Jim Labarber, the music Professor, a little bit later on this morning, before we take a look ahead, a look back at significant events and people tied to this particular date in history, including but
not limited to these. Eighteen sixty four, during the Terrible Civil War in this country, the Union Admiral David Farragut led his fleet to victory in the Battle of Mobile Bay, Alabama. Twenty years later, the cornerstone for the statue of Liberty's Pedestal was laid on Bedloe's Island, New York Harbor. Nineteen fourteen on this state, what's to believe to be the first electric traffic light system installed in Cleveland at the intersection of East hundred and fifth Street and Euclid
Avenue. So it's only been a hundred and nine years since we had electrification in a major city in this country or anywhere. Jesse Owens won the two hundred meter dash at the Berlin Olympics, much to Adolf Hitler's chagrin, collecting the third of his four gold medals. The year was nineteen thirty six this day. In nineteen fifty three, Operation Big Switch began as remaining prisoners taken during the Korean War exchange at Panmun Jam. Looking down the list here more
historical and hysterical facts. American Bandstand debuted with Dick Clark, first time on the network in nineteen fifty seven. To day, This is the day in nineteen sixty two, the South African anti apartheid activist Nelson Mandela arrested on charges of leaving the country without a passport. He would stay in the clink for twenty seven years of imprisonment. Also the day in nineteen sixty two that Marilyn Monroe was found dead at a bungalow in La Her death ruled a probable suicide
from acute barbiturate poisoning. There are others who want to insist that Marilyn Monroe was killed. Pilot Everett Alvarez Junior became the first American flyer to be shot down and captured by North Vietnam. The year was nineteen sixty four. Ten years later, the White House released transcripts of subpoened tape recordings during the President Nixon and his Chief of Staff hr Holdeman had discussed a plan in June of
nineteen seventy two to use the CIA to thwart the FBI's Watergate investigation. Oh, doesn't it get convoluted? Nineteen eighty one. This was the day that the first air traffic controllers were fired by the federal government after Ronald Reagan told him, you can't strike. It's illegal. If you go on strike, you won't have jobs. And you know what they didn't about time put to put the put the boot heel in the back of the union's neck. That's
what I say, not really. And other famous folks celebrating birthdays on this August fifth, outside of the aforementioned Rick Arringer, college Football Hall of Famer and former NFL star Roman Gabriel eighty three today, Bobby Braddock, a great country music writer, has a birthday today. Lonnie Anderson, once of WKRP in Cincinnati, fame Ericus Lezac, the actress Rick Arringer. We mentioned Holly Palace singer Samantha sang and she did Eddie Ohida of Twisted Sisters sixty eight.
Today. Marine McCormick turned sixty seven, Pat Smear, David Balducci, Baldacci, Baldacci. You see it, Baldacci and say it like that basketball Hall of famer Patrick Ewing, How about that sixty one years young today, James Gunn Jonathan Silverman. Oh gosh, that's enough. That's more than enough. It's five forty two. If it's your special day, it's your birthday. I hope it is the best day possible and you get to spend it with people that you know and love and like to hang around. I just hope
it's a fantastic day for you. Everybody deserves that at least once a year. Five forty two. And we'll check the forecast and what is passing for sports this morning? If you're a redspan, coming right up on seven hundred WLWO this morning at nine, Mike Allen bites the latest way for ridiculousness with
karate like discipline on seven WLW. Your forecast as follows, a hot one today, sunny eighty eight for the high temp, a chance of showers and storms moving in overnight, and a chance of shower showers and worms early on Sunday, mostly cloudy otherwise eighty five. The showers will continue to kind of propagate and precipitate all over the Tri State on Sunday night as we close out
the weekend. But a great day to day it is seventy five s WLW Sport now four in a row in the losing skid for the Cincinnati Reds. Last night at GABP, a ninety percent capacity crowd, I mean, another good crowd for a Friday night fireworks and all of the rest saw the Reds lose to the Washington national six to three. The final score. It was a Reds lead until the eighth inning when Graham Ashcraft gave up a two run
shot to tie the game. And then it just descended into it and even the almost always reliable Alex Diaz gave up the go ahead runs and well that was the end of it. In the tenth the Reds and Nationals go back at it today. Four ten is the first pitch. Three ten the inside pitch. And as he may have heard in the news, Joe Mixon is now being sued by the family of the teenager who got shot at his house. Joe didn't shoot him, and Joe had a gun, but he legally
carried a gun. Apparently his sister's boyfriend did not, so Joe they think is on the hook for this. I see a settlement coming. It's five forty four and I'm Gary Jeff Walker. This is a Saturday morning edition and I am almost awake. News Radio seven hundred wl W Experience the Science of clean Maman, how are you? You know what? I'm feeling better every moment and just hear in your voice gave me that extra oof of energy I needed to get me up and over the hump's ears. Good. Yes,
it is good. So what's going on? Man? What's happening up there in the Miami County area, Dick, Miami County or the Montgomery Well, yeah, we got to the Stummers have another show at the u Jenior Citizen. It's in Incarnation off forty eight Thursday and byand got back. As I told you, the club was closed two weeks because of air and we we had a pretty good time. We had about eighteen of us. You know
that was good. And then, uh, but when when the air conditioning goes out, I guess uh, banjo players, just like anybody else, could get pretty uncomfortable and pretty smelly. What does it smell like when there's no air conditioning in your practicing? Dick? Well, that's they they completely went the I went. They don't even let people in. They just say that it's canceled and the next practice would have been last week, which we
did. You know, so you can't you can't distinguish between you know, just the smell of inside the building and because you're not allowed in the building, and the smell of a banjo. Now, does a banjo player smell different than a a mandolin player? Gender? No, there they all They all still smell the stain. Yeah, we need to get some h What were you gonna say, Dick, go ahead, I'm hoping to come out
of this show. Well, I was just gonna tell you. Our friend Dave from Dayton says, we need some positive Dick mojo to get our Reds back on track. Will we win? Will we win the next two games against the lowly Nationals? Dick? Will we? Yes? Yes, Well that's the answer, that's the definitive answer we needed Dick as always. It's a pleasure, my friend. Yes, and uh, I mean you get a chance this weekend, take some time and smell a banjo player. Say
good night, Say good night, Dick, good night. He never says it. He says good night, Gary, Jeff. It just doesn't take instruction. Well, what's passing for news? Coming up? On seven hundred WLW. If you're suffering and there's this ninety degrees, humidity stays relatively low. Not the case tomorrow, though. A few showers and storms are going to push through the area along with rising humidity, expected to feel like the low nineties in the afternoon. From a severe Weather station, I'm nine first
Morning Meteorologist Cameron Harden on news Radio seven hundred WLW. The radar showing clearer conditions across our Tri state area. Right now, it's sixty nine degrees our next update at six thirty, I'm Taren Johnson, News Radio seven hundred WLW News twenty four Hours a Day was a Radio seven hundred WLW into the first official hour of the Saturday morning edition for Saturday, August fifth, twenty twenty
three. Gary Jeff Walking with You on seven hundred w l W Day from Harrison is a wall to this point, which some people consider a positive thing. So I will go ahead and fill this segment with something I wanted to talk about anyway this morning, and that is, of course, Issue one, which you just heard about in the news, You've been hearing about on TV and in commercials for months now, and for the first kind of month
or two of this particular special election campaign. All you heard was vote no. They're trying to take away your voice, your vote, one person, one vote. It will no longer exist if Issue one passes, which was all bs and the other side, the vote yes side in Ohio, which are more homegrown folks in the legislature. Well, they Liam that maybe, Dave, they say that, why shouldn't there be a supermajority? Liam, you want to get the phone. This is what there you go. That's
my guy. A sixty percent majority on any referendum that would change Ohio's constitution. Now, almost every other state has a supermajority built in to changing the cost something as important as changing a state's constitution. The laws by which we live in the state of Ohio and the federal constit the United States Constitution requires percent of the states and two thirds of the House to pass any law that would change the constitution of the United States. They're called amendments. This is
how we do it in this country. So why rely on fifty percent of the vote plus one person? That could be easily manipulated. And we've seen how easily elections can be manipulated in this country lately, so that the true will of the people is not the outcome of set election. So I don't have a dog in the fight except that I'm on the radio in Cincinnati, Ohio on SEVENLW. But I would say, if the choice were up to
me, the more the better. When it comes to something as important as changing the constitution of the state, the laws by which we live, we want to have at least sixty percent of the voters saying, Okay, this is what we should do. And west side Jim, our friend, west side Jim keeper right now, who is a truck commander once again for the Hamilton County Board of Elections, heading out to do his job, and maybe we'll talk to him a little bit later on about issue one and the election.
Like I said, I don't live in Ohio. I work here, I'm on the air here, I talk to you all the time, and you live in Ohio, many of you. I would recommend the more people agreeing to change the constitution something as important as that, the better. Let's just not just leave it down to a simple one person majority, which again can be manipulated or bought or stolen, as we saw in twenty twenty, as we saw in twenty twenty two. Don't let this election and turn out
for God's sake. That's the most important message I can give you. If you've not voted yet an issue one, you've got this weekend to do it, today and tomorrow and then Tuesday. Get out and vote, because if you don't, what you're left with is the women the will of real special interests who really don't give one iota about you, and in this case, all they care about is propping up their abortion industry, which of course is profiting off of the murder of human babies. Uh. That being said,
on that cheerful note, we'll move on. I believe Dave is finally on the line. We'll get to him and old Radio Rick before this half hour's done. Ten minutes past the hour, seven hundred WLW. In eighteen oh four, Lewis and Clark set out on a western expedition to the Pacific Ocean. Tensions ran high once Lewis las cell service stock and could no longer bet on hockey Gate to go home.

Wait wait, you ain't heard nothing yet? Yeah? Yeah, did I ever tell you about my dormat? No? There we got no. Oh it's looking old, Gared Jeff was looking old. You know what, I think, it's worn out. It's welcome. I really need to I really need to talk to
old radio Rick. Thank thank you so much for calling old radio Rick. Good morning. How are you? Good morning? I got a gift for Day two. Antennas got married. The ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was excellent. A little better, I guess every everybody, everybody. This is the best thing about having day from Harrison on is that people are now texting and phoning and emailing in really terrible one liners. Oh great, Yeah, it's an avalanche of god. Why did I wake up this morning so
real? Quickly? What are you listening to us on? And how are you receiving us? And all of that other good stuff. Previously on the Gary Jeff Walker Show, I talked a couple of weeks ago about a General Electric that was a rebranded RCIA. That's Kurtz and it was full of goo because our CIA decided to put tar on everything, and I had to where
surgical goes. Anyways, you're coming in five by five on this beauty, and the thanks for a lot of folks that makes them some wonderful reproduction parts, and the fact that this cabinet was in great sheet to start with. I did just want to mention that this ninety seven dollars and fifty cent radio
from nineteen thirty four, that's over twenty two hundred bucks today. It has two short wave bands count them with me, long wave band and an AM band and going to the catalog apparently to the ge marketing department, that equals five bands. Whoops, it's only four. I checked the switch and it has an oriental wood cabinet whatever that is. But dying it's it's it's pretty, and I think Kurch gonna love seeing back in its original glory. Well,
I don't think oriental is actually politically correct anymore, is it? I know you're church geographically accurate anymore. I don't really know what I'd love to use the word. We can't define it right, So you know, I'm not a big fan of banning any word. I understand I could lose my job if I use sir words. On the air. But just as a general practice, we've gone way way overboard in this country with limiting language and
it sucks and using words you don't know the definition too. I don't mean you personally, but if you don't know what it means, don't say it super califragilistic, xpialidocious or I can spell that actually, but I have absolutely no idea what it means. Have a wonderful weekend, Ricky Okay, all right, bye bye, six twenty one SEVENLW. Listening to Scott Sloan protects me from shark attacks. People have made some strange claims about the Scot Sloan
show. Listening to Scott Sloan has made me thirty percent more attractive. We can promise you that Sloaney talks about the things you are talking about, always ask the tough questions, but never forgets to have a little fun. Listening has healed my bleeding guns. Anything else is a Sloaney bonus. Listening has made much more smarter Scott Sloan, I swear it's true. Monday morning at nine on seven hundred WLW, the Reds used document destruction. You should too.
Let document destruction come to your office and tear it up seven seven, two eleven forwards, You're gonna start to sneak in. They'll be scattered, but odds of you needing umbrella are high, as it will be feeling like the low nineties with the humidity from a severe weather station. I'm nine first Morning Meteorologist Cameron Harden on news radio seven hundred WLW seven hundred of WLW sports penalty kicks the signs FC Cincinnati's fate in the league's cump action against Nashville last
night at TQL Stadium, and the results not good. A one one game turns into a five four Nashville victory and penalty kicks and uh oh FC Cincinnati out of the league's Cup tournament. Now, the Reds not out of contention in the NL Central, out of first place by about a half game thanks to Milwaukee's loss to Atlanta, but the Reds couldn't gain any ground with a six three loss to the Washington Nationals in the game opener of that series last
night at GABP. Game two this evening at actually this afternoon four ten three ten are inside Pitch game start here or the home of the Reds. Seven LW and if you've not been paying attention to Joe Mixon now being sued by the family of the team who was shot at Joe Mixon's house by the boyfriend of Joe Mixon's sister, and the saga continues. Twenty five and seven.
Lw as I mentioned election day early voting going on today and tomorrow in Hamilton County in the state of Ohio on Issue one, the contentious constitutional amendment issue. And the man who was out delivering the votes, he's he's not influencing the votes on it or changing the votes, I don't think. But he's a truck commander. His name is west Side Jim Kiefern. He joins us now, Good morning west Side, Jimmy, Hello Gary, Jeff, and
we got Dan. Saint Charles is also a commander. Buddy Well, Fanny, that's the food critic from New York, right, Yeah, that's the food critic from New York. Yeah. See. Hey, by the way, I want to get this hit real quick. My prediction. I got a call from Dick from Dayton on the Bengal game twenty seven, twenty four Bengals. That was his prediction almost every game last year exactly. That's why
this figured like savings. So I mean, and I got to go ahead start, well, I want to know, do you know what's the voter turnout been on this special election issue so far? Uh? Well, it's actually been pretty decent. I mean, the mail ends have been above what the predictions were going to be. I'm heading out there this morning. I understand that, you know, the Democrats are out here flipping people off, yelling about your family. They put it in a pen for a reason out
here at the BOEUM. But I'm here. Instead of you know, the eight or ten percent horrible um, you might get a fifteen to eighteen percent, which is still disgusting. Yeah. I mean, if it's as important as how we view the law in Ohio and how the Constitution has changed the document by which our laws are based in the Buckeye State, if if you if you can't care enough about that, then there's no reason for you ever to vote for anything. I mean on an issue this important is pathetic.
I guarantee that most of the people that are out here that are holding enough signs and flipping people off and that don't know a dagon thing about Issue one, just like the people are going to work in the polls to say, the Democrats get paid to work the polls, and I've talked to these people. They don't even vote. I mean they just say that we get paid, we get fifty bucks and we hand out or hold off a sign.
So the disenfranchised voter is really prevalent anymore. Plus the fact that you got eighty percent probably of people that don't even get off the couch to vote, much less mail it in. I wan, you've got so many opportunities before the election and you can mail it in, and god knows, you know. I just don't trust a mail in vote. I don't trust absentee ballots. I don't trust early voting. I think that do you vote on election
day, and that's that should be agreed. But as a truck commander, you get paid to go and deliver the ballots places and take the ballots away from the voting places. So I'm all in favor of you getting paid as much as possible. Jim Well, I mean in a central place and they come to me, you know, Oh it's even don't bount out and kiss the ring, but it gives me more money to tip a guy over a six twenty eight Mama Street Bay, let's get there. That's an excellent point
and we'll see you soon. Thank you so much for your call this morning and your hard work for the Hamilton County Board of Elections. West Side Jim a truck commander along with Dan Saint Charles out literally getting out to vote on the special issue election one issue thing Tuesday, and it's going on all weekend.

This morning, Steve from Eton, Ohio with a pithy phone calling news of the week straight ahead on seven hundred WLWN during WLW Cincinnati, available everywhere with the iHeartRadio app down number one podcasting WLF and iHeartRadio station on how Rude Tanta
Rito's the Full House Rewatch podcast doink. While still wondering why Hillary Clinton has never faced a federal indictment for claiming an election was stolen our friends, Steve from ettn Ohio has plenty of news and notes from the week that was, and a fifthy phone called, good morning, Stephen, how are you? I am wonderful. Do you think Hillary will start her prison term for doubting the outcome of the twenty sixteen election before the twenty four election? Do you
think she'll face trial in prison? Let me see, let me get my Vegas odds here zero? Yes, there you go, Please go ahead this week, Gary, Jeff, I know you were talking to was at West Side Jim, Yes about the election? Right on? I am it's just incredible. How many people won't vote. Well, let me give you a reason for voting on Issue one. All you need to know on Issue one came this week not from a person in Ohio, but from Kami Harris,
socialist surfer girl turned incoherent VP in an incompetent administration. Speaking in the People's Republic of Wisconsin, where I used to live, she repeated her war cry on children abortion after childbirth, Yes, after childbirth, he haw. That's not abortion counselor look it up in the dictionary if you can find one. It's in fantaside. She is the poster girl for no on Issue one in Ohio. Let's go further. I looked up this week one of my favorites.
We mentioned her on the show I think about two years ago, Lannie Gwiner. Yes, Lannie sadly died last year. We mentioned her because Bill Clinton nominated her to be the head of the Civil Rights Division, God Almighty, the Justice Department thirty years ago, and then he had to withdraw the nomination. Here I'll explain that in a second. Here's the New York Times obit from last year on Lannie, and it ran on and ran on,
and I will try not to run on. She argued that the principle of one man, one vote was insufficient in a system where the interests of minorities, racial or otherwise. I have no idea what otherwise means were inevitably trampled by those of the majority. Read that white people and that all her natives needed to be considered to give more weight to minority interest She proposed a variety of alternatives, like cumulative voting, in which some people get a number of
votes. Not mentioned in this obituary was her proposal, and this is what got her nomination thrown out, for giving extra votes to black folks at the polls to redress their grievances, you know, like a black person gets five and a white person gets one. I think they already do that in Philadelphia,
But please go. I think you're right, But guess what. I also went back to the New York Times story thirty years ago on the unmitigated mess they called it, and that Clinton is inept in choosing nominees, referring to one Lanny gwiner, boy, how times have changed? Quote poorly written, referring to her writings on voting rights, provocative and easy to caricature, by guys like me. I guess she was a buddy of Bill and Hillary's at Yale Law School. By the way, that's how they knew her.
Bill withdrew the domination, calling her comments unfortunate and perhaps undemocratic. Wow, thirty years ago the New York Times told the truth and now they can't. Well, let's get a little softer now. The word of the week, Garry Jeff This comes courtesy of Jay Ratliffe. I love j Ratliffe volume metric. Now. I will come back to that word in just one moment. That. This is courtesy of British Airways via our airlined guru, Jay Ratliffe.
Jay reported this week that a British Airways plane sat on the concrete six and a half hours waiting for a hoist to remove a passenger stuck in his seat following landing of the aircraft. Yes, there are jumbo jets and jumbo passengers. The door of the plane had to be removed to accommodate the hoist. British Airways used volume metric in a press release to explain the problem. You know, you can't say fat, right, you can't say fat.
This gives rise to a new word describing Washington, DC crime metric or Hunter Biden coke metric or Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen spend metric. Our debt rating was downgraded this week and Janet cannot explain why. Hey, I can't, Janet? How about debt metric? And I got an email this morning from Abe Lincoln at heaven dot com and he congratulated me on reaching four score. Yes, I reached four score at one oh seven pm this afternoon. Hey,
here is a trivia for you. You mentioned Rick Derringer right born in Fort Recovery, and mentioned so Lina. By the way, thank you very much for doing that. I'm going to be up there on Monday. You know, very very famous for hang On Sloopy, the rock theme of the state of Ohio. I got a question for the entire audience, particularly those who are really old like me. Is he related to Ray Derringer, who was the backcourt partner of Jim Paxson with the Dayton Flyers in the nineteen fifties,
Because I remember I used to listen to all those games. Ray Darringer was from Saint Mary's, Ohio. So that's my question. All the timers, the question I can answer for you is well, no, probably not, because Rick his last name was actually Zeringer, Rick and Randy Zeringer and then the name was changed to Darringer later. Oh how sad? Okay, I lose anyway, That's that's kind of the that's kind of the deal for this
week. But what folks, if you can't read that constitution oldma here in Ohio and decide for yourself and understand what's going on, you're you're you're not in any shape to vote in twenty twenty four either. Well, Steve, Steve, here's here's another thing that I did not mention earlier. The other thing that Issue one does, if if it passes, it means that all
eighty eight counties have to have petitions to get something on the ballot. Why wouldn't everyone in the state have to participate in getting things on the ballot if they're going to vote on it later? Exactly? I also heard this week that a lot of states don't even allow people to vote on constitution amendments. That's true. Okay, thank you very much, Hey, thank you to day. Hey, happy birthday, Thank you very much, sir. Bye bye eighty today. Good for him, God bless him. I take a
break and come back. This is this Saturday morning edition. I'm Gary Jeff Walker, and I'm wearing pants. Is it possible to treat the home, not just my cancer? Can you tailor treatment to me? Of course? The most important part of your cancer treat passing for the News and seven Right now, our friend Ray in Loveland is back. Good morning, Raymond. How are you all right? My brother Gary Jeff. You're sounding fantastic this
morning. Just the wealth of comedy and information that is paralleled in the radio waves across this great nation. So thank you, well, thank you for those wonderful superlatives. What's on your mind? Brother, Well, I want to say, first of all, subliminally, I want to say, vote yes on issue one. Vote yes on issue one, and we should have the same set up on the state constitution as the Democratic Party has to pass
their own party constitution. They have the same set up as we're wanting to have for the state of Ohio. So you're telling me that Democrats require sixty percent of their members to approve any kind of change to what platform and the like? That is correct to rock and roll Hu Chiku, Gary Jeff, Yes, Rick Darren Share yea A Happy birthday Steve. By the way, A very happy birthday to Steve. Wow. So what, well, why
do you think they're pushing so hard? I think it's the outside the state money and the planned parenthoods and the abortion industry that is pushing the no vote on this and one hundred percent of wonder that if they can flip Ohio, they think they can flip every state across this country and circumvent circumvent my friend, as Barack Obama said that the highest court in the land has ruled, and they want to take a backdoor approach and circumvent the highest court in the
land, which is the Supreme Court of the United States of America. Right, that's what they're trying to do state by state. Well, and you know, the mutilation of children called gender affirming care for minors and all the rest of the stuff that goes with Issue one. People need to carefully consider not be confused by all of the dishonesty and the millions of dollars that has been spent from out of state resources to lie to the voters of Ohio.
And I hope they all show up. Ray, thank you for showing up. As always, my friend, I love you and have a great weekend. God bless your brella. All right, thank you very much. Uh yeah, let's break and come back, because that's what we do here. Seven hundred WLW for Adolph with moderate to severe plex arise. This board candidates for systemic or phototherapy.

Jeff Wiler Honda dot Com into another hour of the Saturday morning edition for Saturday, August fifth, twenty twenty three. I'm Gary Jeff Walker. You are you, and that's perfectly fine with me. And if you're wrong, I'll let you know. You don't worry about that. If you're wrong, I'll tell you that you're wrong, and I'll tell you why you're wrong, and we'll agree that
I'm right and everything will be fine. Uh. It's time to talk to our friend, environmental engineer Steve Schulte with the straight dope on climate as always, UM, no indoctrination, just education here on Saturday morning, Steve, how are you my friend better not deserve as Gary Jeff. Thank you very much, Yes, sir, yes sir. All right, we're talking about El Nino this morning and the New York City blackouts, and I think you've got some good information for us on those fronts. Well, let's talk about
New York City. This comes from one of my rags that I get to being a retired engineer, called smart Brief for Civil Engineers, but actually comes from the New York Times. Just a summary of the article. It says New Yorker's advised to get ready for a blackout. Twenty years to pass since New York City at a major blackout, but it's time to get ready for another one, says Zach High School, the city's commissioner of Environmental Management or
excuse me for emergency management. Among other things, cities residents are advised to set aside a two day supply of water and register with the city's public messaging system for most days. It takes five point five giggle watts to keep New York City humming in the summer, though demand can reach ten giggle watts. He says, the power reliability our forecast to begin dropping this year be very twenty twenty five and continue dropping to twenty thirty. So here's a state that
shuts down fossil fuel power plants, nuclear power plants. US made it illegal for new natural gas lines to go in through the state or whatnot, no new fracking or whatnot. And you know we're supposed to have um you know that so called renewable resources of solar and wind will do everything and be cheaper and more reliable, and which just is a know of the example of they're wrong. Yeah, you want a reliable power, you need fossil fuels,
you need nuclear. That's that's the reality. Yeah, whatever happened to me, what happened to the all in approach on everything. Whatever happened to that? I mean and you, you and I are amenable to solar and wind where it is efficient and where it does not destroy the environment like a lot of the plans they've got. Now for us, we're also believe and because it's true. But the technology we have you can burn coal, and you can burn I mean liquid natural gas. It's it's some of the cleanest energy
on the planet. There's no reason to exclude it unless you have for that nasty except for that nasty little molecule that spot is causing all the problems carbon dioxide, Yeah, which which the earth, which the Earth needs plenty of to continue to exist. But anyway, go ahead, what you got it? What else did you have on an El Nino, Steve, we got an just let people know, well a little this is just a little education
because this is gonna be coming up. Alnino's the warm phase of what it's called the Alninio Southern Oscillation, and it deals with the band of warm water that develops in the s central and Eastern Pacific Ocean along the equator. So basically it starts around northern off the coast of Northern Australia and eastern Indonesia flows easterly, basically just blow the equator until it hits Central America and South America. And it now appears that one is developing. And why is this important
Because in past El Ninia's were associated with increasing atmospheric temperature increases. It has a counterpart called el la Nina's lah ninyas, which are linked to cooling phases. So but bear in mind that those promoting a looming man made catastrophic climate crisis assert that all warming is caused by increasing SA twos. Well it's not. It's also caused by mother nature. And one of the things mother nature does increased temperatures, particularly for us in the North and South America, is
El Nino. So that's something to consider in the next couple of years as people are talking about the high temperatures and so on so forth. But what's interesting in this article this comes from CO two Coalition, one of your favorite organizations, uh the during nineteen ninety one in nineteen ninety five, the El Ninos, which are uh you know I have the very um great impact on
temperatures of the air and make it higher. During those two years, the air temperature actually cooled that I would say, well, why well, they suspect twin eruptions of Mount Pinatubo and Mount Hudson. Mount nineteen ninety one Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines put more particulates into the air then all human kind had created in the history of human beings on the planet. In nineteen ninety five Mount Hudson. Yes, go ahead, Yeah, I remember one of the
years, I think it was it to Mount in the Tubeau. We basically had a summer that never was yep. And I remember hearing radio and TV newscasts that the water parts, you know, throughout the United States and in Cincinnati, we're having a terrible year because you know, we weren't hitting the upper eighties and nineties, we're drawing, you know, where people flocked in the water parks. We were kind of in the upper seventies and lower raighties
and people's desth didn't go indeed. But nature, thank you, Steve. Mother. Nature is a big, in fact, the biggest part playing when it comes to what our environment, what our climate is, because that's what climate is, it's nature seven twelve seven WLW No, that's amazing. Egyptians had pregnancy tests as far back as thirteen fifty BC. Women would relieve themselves on wheat and barley seeds. If the wheat grew, it meant a baby girl, if the barley crew a boy. In nineteen sixty three, this

Covington, the food market or the whatever, the farmer's market. Yeah, she has she has a gift for you and you need to come out and see her. Okay, oh so now you get a conduit for messages. Yeah, so so

Went Spot Race and uh we're literally at the starting line of the spot and race. So it may get it may get a
little loud. But what did you want to talk about today? I just I just hope, I just hope that you would just pop open with something. And and now we've got about it. We've got about a minute left, So give me a minute of good information. I really want to well, I really want people to understand a melotonin and what a melotonin does and what it doesn't do. A melatonin as a supplement is literally the worst thing that you could possibly use as as a sleep aid. O. Uh,
too many people are accouting a melotonin as a sleep aid. And actually a melotonin um as the hormone is an alarm. It's not a sleeping It doesn't help you go to sleep. It's it's actually an alarm that tells you that you have to go to sleep. So so and denis scene is what creates sleep pressure and makes you go to sleep. So if you're taking a melatonin
supplement, uh, you would want to take it during the day. And most people don't even need a melatonin supplement because are there so many foods that have a melatonin in it already, specifically a pistachios So if you're getting a good you know, a good amount of a pistachios because I love a pistachios um, so I don't really need. So you're telling people if they want, if they want a better sleep pattern, they should get cracking, get
cracking, geta get cracking. You know what else? You know? One knowls helped me sleep back in the day, and you would never recommend it, uh, Jack Daniels, Jack Daniels usually really really helped me sleep.

That's the final and ten innings last night at Great American Ballpark, the fourth loss in a row for our Reds, and you're wondering, is this finally reality coming to call? A two run shot by Thomas was
the final straw. The Couda Craw, Nick Sonzel and La La Cruz and Matt McLean Mighty Might Matt McLean all hit home runs early in the game to give the Reds a three nothing lead. Graham Ashcroft gave up that lead after

He started this bit, we're just wacky news stories from all over the country and all over the world back when he was still a newsman here at seven LW, and for the last five or six years since he moved on, he's been nice enough to oblige us with what we call the Tom Davis Diaries.

He went crazy, running around, climbing on the luggage conveyor and swiping food from people
waiting for flights. Animal control officers eventually used a lift to get up into the rafters and safely bring that monkey down. And finally, speaking of animals, so there's a zoo in China that is fighting back against reports that their star Malaysian sun Bear, is actually just a man in a suit. The zoo says that it's just the way that it stands that it makes it look like a human and if it was a man in a suit due to the heat, that person would pass out in no time. But that doesn't stop
the speculation. On social media, what little of it there is in China, people are saying, hey, that looks just like a person. There's no way I want my money back next week.

you good morning? Good morning Jeff number one number one this week in nineteen sixty six. A song you have to Go Back. Kip Taylor wrote the song. John Boy the actor Midday Cowboy John Boys. His brother, Chip Taylor wrote the song. John Boy's brother wrote the song. Yeah, Chip Taylor. Now, the biggest thing he wrote was Angel the Morning you know when you when you look back. As far as the song, this was kind of a joke. He told me, it's just this kind of a
throwaway thing. Chimbol Burton, Richard Burton's wife. They got the voice and she married this young walkin will singer in New York, Jordan Christopher did a band called The One One and she had the place called Arthur's in New York, predecessor this studio fifty four, the hottest club in New York. And she had this young husband. She needed a song for Jordan the record. So they got Chipped Taylor who write the song. And when he went on
me okay, they who knocked it out. Like the next day. They had this song and went to the studio and actually when he when he did the demo, the basic three chord song, he didn't take it very seriously and he was on the floor laughing when he was done singing it. And the pauses that you heard and the hesitations of the result of he said to me, I talked to him. He said he didn't he didn't know where he was going. He was gonna go next, so he paused and they
recorded the song Jordan Christopher. Nothing happened. But in England that this group the Trogs heard the song and miss took is matter of fact. They thought they heard whistling in the song in the different breaks, and that's an ocarina, and then when happen, bought an acarina and put the accorina in there. So they record the song in like in ten minutes. It's the flip side another B side of a record, and then it comes out on a
record. Two different labels had it add To Records, and Fontana Records released it sigmultaneously, and the only time a number one song was on the charts by two different labels, and that was that. It's a history correctly. But Chip Taylor made a lot of money for this, tons of money because it was recorded by so many people and constantly being used in movies, Teltis
and shows Who Won't Have You? And he used a lot of this money to gamble, and for years he had been about ten thousand bucks a day. You can see him Vegas. Eventually got kicked out of every casino in Vegas for cardcowning and he has playing today. I understand that he's kicked that habit, so well, good brand. Well that's and that's a wild story too. Up next, another number one song, and this was actually a gift from one friend to another. Oddly enough. Yeah, Now what happened
was James Taylor was playing. He was pretty hot. He had just Sweet Baby James album and he's playing the Tribadour and he's the audience has come in night after night. He's packing the place and he asked his friend Karl King to be opening that and she rudgingly accepted this because she didn't like she wasn't used to sing in her own songs. And one day she's doing a sound check early on and she tried this song that she was going to do on
her upcoming album Tapestry, and he's listening in the bemphany. He likes the song a lot, so when they get ready to record she's recording ironically at the same time he is. She's doing Tapestry, he's doing the mud Slide Slim album, and they're using some of the same part Joy Mitchell. They're using the same personnel, but because they're friends, going back and forth.
And then he's doing the mud the mud Slide album and he needs another song and producer Peter Asher said, how about that song that you liked that kells
You've got a Friend? So he tries it, loves his version, calls up Garl King because he doesn't want to steal this from her, because he knew that she was considering releasing him as a single, and she graciously grants him permission, and the song becomes this giant million seller and twenty four year old kids, he's sitting on top of the world with the number one hit song Let's Got a Friend, Let's do It, one of my favorites written
by Carol King, made number one by her friend James Taylor.

Nineteen seventy one, nineteen seventy six, A commitment at one end at one edition shorts on listening to us quinned James Taylor now Tayl King's never told the story, I guess, but James Taylor always said that that was That was the song that she wrote in response to a line in James Taylor's hits Firing Rain, that the answer to I've seen lonely times when I could not find the friend in
his song Firing Rain, And that was her response to that. Chief Neighbor really said that. She just said, you know, kind of a generic thing. But looking at this day, say six a big number one record for one week of the nineteen seventy six The Manhattans out of Jersey City a song called Kiss and Say Goodbye, written by the bass singer in the group
Winfrid Love It. He wrote the song when he wrote up said, he said, the lyrics came to him like at three o'clock in the morning, jots down the things he wanted to say and put them together on his team recording. Had a little piano and he said, you know, when he writes a slow song, you have to have a meaning of message. And it's the love travel situation. He said that a lot of people have been through. But he wrote the song and he said, you know what,
this is a country's song. For a Glenn Campbell, maybe Charlie Pride and Mats was trying to get the song too, and then eventually he she tried it with his group, the Manhattan's, and the lead singer Gerald Austin, just knocked it out and he comes in singing after Love's spoken in du Yeah,
the little recitation. Yeah, he didn't like it. He didn't like the because he said that they were somehow the back ground vocals went off pitch and this thing actually sat around Jerry jep for like a year before the Rupie Company released it, probably because at that time it was concerned about dropping a ballad during a disco explosion, and they didn't think it was gonna work.
But it sure did. Oh man, I don't care. You know a little bit before my time in radio, I started in nineteen eighty, as you mentioned, number one in nineteen seventy six for the Manhattans, but this was still a huge hit when you went and played record hops or high school dances or anything.

Johnny Whinn wants to do a rock and roll song, so he wrote this song for Johnny Winner in nineteen seventy and Johnny Winner recorded this first with his band, and Rick's on the record and manufact some of them. The Choris run this record too, and it was it was his his idea to satisfy when Rick wrote this

Well the latest on the Texas abortion ban. The judge they're ruling in favor of women and their doctors, blocking Texas officials from enforcing the band for women who have complications during their pregnancy, saying doctors are now shielded from prosecution for
abortion if they determined the pregnancy poses a risk to the patient's life.

It also states that Mixon was told by the team about fifteen minutes before Brewer fired multiple rounds that he and others would be playing nerve wars in the neighborhood, but his sister, Salanda Mixon would inform him of people outside with guns as Mixon fear for his life after getting recent social media death threats. Joe Mixon had a gun on him during the incident, but did not fire it and

But what has taken twenty seven years, as Gentleman says, for them, for the British Museum who funded and did the study, the carbon study in nineteen eighty eight, to release the law of data of the of the of the of the event. And what they found was that the sample and looking at the data, the sample was actually contaminated and it wasn't an actual pure linen sample of
the shroud. It was a corner piece that was actually had foreign material from a previous repair job on the shroud for whatever they you know, try to try to fix them in everybody. I know it was in a fire and things like that. But instead of taking I don't take the Vatican alluded, but they really should have taken other control samples from different points on the shroud to do a proper carbon study on it. So what they have found was
that this data, this information provided by the scientist was inaccurate. Carbon fourteen. There's only so much radioactive carbon fourteen in the atmosphere, and linen in like a tree, they absorbed the carbon fourteen and when it dies, it stops absorbing carbon fourteen. So the linen and the and the shroud. So there was a ratio that you look at when you do this carbon fourteen data
analysis. So when you have cotton that is much newer than the original linen of the shroud, you get false information because your ratios are all off. In essence, what you're saying from the sample they had, we have no idea whether the shroud of Turan is actually Jesus Death shroud or not. We still don't. Well, however, they have a due technique called wide angle X ray scattering that the year ago and uh they pretty much confirmed based on
it that it's really two thousand years old. So it's okay. So so it is of the date that they have they have thought all this time. So it's interesting thing that came out foreign material on this corner as you as you mentioned earlier, had kind of taken the carbon dating thing out of the mix to determine if this is the actual death shroud of Jesus. I'm wondering if I wonder if Mike Mike Lindell will come out with the geez sheets my shroud, you know, can get some play on it. He will.
There's probably no question about at Michael. Thank you. Have a great weekend, and don't forget the skirt game in your hometown next week. Seven hundred LW.

Another loss for the Reds last night. That's four in a row at Gap Final six to three and ten innings. It started well. Nixon,

Ellie Dave la Cruz made it three to zip in the third inning with a slam and the first home runnings hit by the way right handed or left handed rather this year. And then Lane Thomas and James Minisus of the Nationals spoiled the party, the last coming in the tenth inning, a two run shot that sealed the deal
for the Nationals. The Reds try and get back on the winning track today this afternoon at Great American Ballpark. Are inside pitch at three ten here in the home of the Reds. At four ten the action and they play again tomorrow at one forty. Also playing tomorrow the US women's team in the World Cup against Sweden, an arch rival and this is winner go home time for

It doesn't matter what the final score is next Friday night in del High Township, because the winner is the whole community thanks to the Dell High Skirt came heading into its forty sixth year next week to talk about that and what it's all about. Mike DeMoss, he and his wife Sary Demos have been instrumental integral in the Dell High Skirt game now for years. And they join us or Mike does in the studio because of course Sherry's still asleep.
It's getting that unneeded beauty sleep. Yeah, oh yeah, right exactly. She is a beautiful woman, There's no doubt about that. Yeah. Going into year forty six, looking forward to it. Um got a couple of great bands again this year. They're volunteering their time to help us race. Someone's playing We got that one Party band on Thursday night from six to ten. They do anywhere from sixties to recent music. And then we have
ex college called One Party ban that One Party that one party band. That's a great they look them up. They've been all over the community, all over the sins Any area for a few years now. They're getting bigger, and so you mentioned they're on Thursday and then ex Calibers on Friday. It's a two day event for people. Do not know. There's a tailgate party on Thursday. Tell me what happens is at the tailgate. Jail gates just
basically like your usual festival with a really good band. We also have now we started to win a real game now, so Thursday we actually have a softball tournament where there are four teams that will vie to play against the ladies on Friday night. So there's a softball tournament as well as the boost, the beer, the food, you know, the usual west Side gambling type boost. Kid's own, a huge kid he's owned this year actually grew up from last year and that was just a big hit last year for the kids.
So don't be afraid to bring your kids up here. We go bouncy houses, games for the kids and it's just a family event, very very nice. Thursday night six to tend the tailgate with that one party band. Friday, as you mentioned, the Dell High skirt game with one of the four teams competing in the tournament Thursday facing off against you called them the ladies. Now are these guys that are just become confused about their sexuality or now
you know it started, you know forty six years ago. Started on when there was a young boy hit by hit by a car on a bike. UM, the community, the police, to fire, athletic association back then all got together to raise some money. And I'm not even sure who came up with the idea to address when they did it. M I have to talk to a couple of guys that played the first game. You know there's no crime in softball or now? Is this is softball or baseball softball game?
Yeah? Off slow pitch, slow pitch, yes, oh yes, if you saw these guys, you don't want to see fast pitch with these guys. Yeah. Watching the red zone Tuesday night, it looked like a Sunday softball Beer League softball game. They're twenty to nine thing, and then sixteen to six was just as bad, only only in Sunday beer softball. There's usually a mercy rule. Is there a mercy rule in the skirt game?
There is not? Usually usually it's uh, we keep it pretty fun, so it's not as competitive as most of our Friday night games used to be when we were younger and played. Um it's just fun, family fun for everybody to watch. And um it'll stander control and you have different raffles and Pyes that absolutely, absolutely we do split the pots. Obviously, we will have a couple of the Big Six games as usual. We have a we have a raffle that we are doing and we've been doing for about a
few months now. So on tickets it's a top prizes twelve hundred and fifty, second prizes, five hundred and third prizes to fifty um the usual six or five dollars. So we sell those raffle tickets as well, all raising money to help people in Del High. So you know, and here's the thing, people, if you go and you win the twelve hundred and fifty, you know you gotta you gotta give back at least six hundred and twenty
five of at least half appreciated, not required, but appreciated. But it's a chair, absolutely, And Mike has asked me and I don't know yet, but there's a possibility I could be doing play by play next Friday from six to eight at the Del High Skirt Game if I can get out of my obligations slinging drinks for Hillbillies and others for a couple of hours in Newport and I'd be happy. Then he goes, don't worry, we'll pay you. I said, it's a benefit. What this is the thing I don't
get either. If you volunteer to be at a benefit, then you shouldn't really expect anything in return. Real charity works like that, folks. Just in case you didn't know, But if there's any way possible, oh, you know, you got plenty of time to say one on one more. I just want to make sure that people realize we actually Our fireworks show on Friday night after the game is huge, and uh, people sometimes just come up just for the fireworks alone. Come will replaced because hum Queen's City Pyro,
they just do a heck of a job. Day does a great job. But on a fireworks show and it is one of the probably the biggest one on the West Side all year long. Well that that says a lot because because you people on the West Side like to explode things. This is true. I've seen that my friends up at the Crow's Nest. So Thursday six to ten and Friday the later a little bit later on Friday night band.
Pretty much they kind of give us a little leeway. You know, we're pretty you know, the police have fired to a great job helping us out. So eleven ish maybe you know, can you say what the money's going to this year? Do you have a charity? And basically how we do it is we have people ask for help all year round. You can go to our website doll high scare game dot org, UM, fill out of something there or send us a letter UM asking for help and basically respond
all year long. So we used to be we used to just help one family out every year. Now all year around people ask for helping. We will help people all year round. So it's not just the funds. With the funds that are raised. UM, say someone has a you know, get sick, it's you know, can't go to work, can't gather bills, that kind of thing. We don't pay me. I will tell you we don't pay medical bills, but we will mortgages, UM whatever, UM,
handicap accessibility equipment, stuff like that. We've done all that and basically you know, we'll go, we'll interview the people, make sure it's a real need. We don't pay people directly. We actually pay, you know, the CGNE or the mortgage, so we don't ever give anybody how old are That's funny, all right, brother, Yeah, it's it's a great cause and it's all stays in Dell High and helps the people that need it. We'll give our love Chris to two point zero and my love to Sherry.
And it's good to see you. Always good to see you. And hopefully we can work it out so I can come see you next Friday night at six I would be out high school. Got a parking spot in my driveway? You're good to go? Yeah, that's that's that's over on that side of town. I need a parking place, that's all. Don't need any money. Just give me a place to easily park Mike and we'll be

The not so pleasant hospitals stay like any hospital stay, it's pleasant. Local big shot, self important businessman has spend a couple of days in the hospital and he's a royal pain to everybody there. The staff. He bosses him around like they
were his employees or his slaves. None of the staff we're wanting to have anything to do with him. After two days, the head nurse, though, had a plan, came into his room and announced, I have to take your temperature. Well. After complaining for several months, he finally settled down, crossed his arms, and opened his mouth. The head nurse said, no, I'm sorry, but for this reading, I cannot use an oral thermometer. Oh. This started another round of back and forth with the
guy. Eventually he rolled over, bared his rear end, and after feeling the nurse insert the thermometer, he heard her announce I have to get something now. You just stay just like that until I get back. But she left the door open to his room. On her way out, He's cursing under his breath as he heard people walking past his door laughing. After almost an hour, the man's doctor came into the room. The doctor says, what's going on in here? Man angrily answered, what's the matter? Would
you, doc? Have you ever seen someone having their temperature taken before? After a pause, the doctor confessed, with a suppressed laugh in his voices, Well, no, I I guess I haven't, not with a carnation anyway.

Welcome to Green Bay Packers the fay Core Stadium under the lights on Friday, August eleven to seven pf The thrill of big breathe, the acade of defeat. We've seen a lot of the latter lately it comes to the Reds. But to talk about all that and much more, our friend Moe Egger joins us on a Saturday morning. Hey, Mo, Gared, Jeff, how you doing? You know what I'm here, brother, and I'm ready to
talk some sports with you. First, off and a listener wanted. This is a request from a listener, so we're doing requests this morning on the Saturday morning edition. The request was, have MO talk about the new Big twelve, since you see is now a member of the Big twelve. And I'm sure that's been almost been talking about for the last couple of weeks anyway,
with a few little things hit and missus other places. But I mean, I think the big story MO with the news this morning is that what used to be the Pac twelve is now down to four or five and that conference looks like it is irrelevant. And where did the rest of the teams
wind up going, if anywhere on the West Coast. So let's start with that and we'll talk about the ramifications otherwise, for you see and all the other teams in the new Big twelve, what happens, what happens to the West Coast, what happens to cal and the rest of these teams, they get gobbled up by the remaining conferences that are left. You know, we've we've gone from basically the Power five to now the Power four, and I'm sure you know eventually as time goes by, there's even going to be more
realignment and consolidation. But yeah, I mean, look, this started, this really started ten years ago. That the thing that really triggered all this was when Pittburg and Syracuse bolted for the ACC. But in relation to the PAC ten, you could see where this was going when two things happened. First of all, obviously USC and UCLA left for the Big Ten. Secondly,
the PAC twelve really struggled to find a media deal. The leadership of that conference is terrible, and so it was almost inevitable that the Big Twelve and the Big Ten we're going to poach more schools. And now it's a matter of where those other schools end up. Is there a desire by the Big ten to pull in the likes of Callen, Oregon? Does the Big Twelve go there? Is there a West Coast home for those schools? Those things remain to be seen as it relates to the University of Cincinnati looked,
I looked at this from two different standpoints. From a UC perspective, Yeah, the Big Twelve is now stronger and deeper and better prepared to deal with the defection of Oklahoma and Texas City year by getting Arizona and Arizona State in Utah, and you know, if you're the University of Cincinnati, you want to best insulate yourself against what happened to it when the Big East basically dissolved
about ten years ago. But the part of me that fell in love with college football and college basketball hates this because with each wave of realignment, we start to lose some of the things that those of us who love college sports really hold deer, like geographical identity. I'm old enough to remember what Big Ten football looked like and what SEC football looked like. Well, we're moving to a model which is going to look a lot more like the NFL.
I think the thing that's most frustrating for me as a college sports fan is just these the conference realignment has destroyed so many historical rivalries that I've come to love, and it's going to further undermine traditions, but I think make college football unique. Ryan Day, the coach at Ohio State, has talked about the possibility that maybe the Buckeyes and Walverines aren't going to play in the final Saturday of November. Why can you mention Ohio State Michigan in September or October?
It would be cool. It would be great. It's a great rivalry, it's a great game. But those things keep going away, and those are the things that the NFL doesn't have that I've always felt like is made college football unique. After this year, After this year, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State aren't going to play. West Virginia and pitt don't play anymore, Cincinnati and Louisville don't play anymore. And all of those things are a result of
conference realignment. I can't imagine, for example, Georgia and Georgia Tech not playing on the weekend after Thanksgiving or Thanksgiving week, the Oklahoma Olahoma State thing. You mentioned, Michigan Ohio State obviously, I mean people at both of those schools, along us from both of those schools look forward to hating their rival at a certain time of the year. I'm sure they can hate them equally in October or no, you know, September, October. But there's
You're right, there's just nothing like. There's nothing like those rivalry games at a crucial point of the season when you're just expecting them to happen. Now, the new Big twelve is going to be and see if you agree with me, without question, the most incredible basketball conference in the nation, won't it With the additional With the addition of Arizona and all of that, I mean, the Big Twelve is going to be where where the hoops really coming
to play? Yeah, I mean just look at recent history of the NCAA Tournament. Texas Tech played for the national title in twenty nineteen, Baylor wanted in two thousand twenty one, Kansas wanted in two thousand and twenty two, Houston made the Final four in two thousand twenty one. They're moving with Cincinnati to the Big Twelve. It's look, the Big East that you see was
in for eight years was terrific. This quite frankly, is better, and I think without the dead weight of some of the schools they had at the bottom of the Big East. And then you add to it Arizona. You add to a Utah which has a good college basketball tradition from a basketball perspective, which fortunately or unfortunately and I would say unfortunately doesn't drive the bus in
conference realignment. This league is going to be great. And for West Miller, who I think has finally achieved, you know, some degree of stability with UC basketball, I think the improvements they have made this offseason could dramatically be offset by just a huge uptick in the caliber of competition. Last year, West Virginia made the tournament. They had a seven and eleven records. In the Big twelves, they probably would have finished in second place in the
American Athletic Conference. Oklahoma State finished in the middle of the pack in the Big Twelve. They probably finished near the top of the American Athletic Conference. It is going to be one dynamite deep college basketball conference. You know. It did obviously the cows out of the barn on the nils and the transfer
portals in college sports and the like. But I was thought, yeah, it would be only fair for someone if a university or a conference is making major dollars off the name or likeness of one of the athletes who are scholarship athletes. Yeah, they should. They should get to the athletes should get
something, even though it's oh amateur athletics. But all the while, I thought it would have been a better plan if they would have put those funds in escrow for those players and they could only collect it after they graduated from those institutions. That's that's what I think. Maybe, Uh, but you know I can, Like I said, do we really care that much? It's already been done, and that that would that would make us assume that
we care about whether or not student athletes graduate. And let's be honest, nobody does. Whether we care about whether student athletes or students or not, Yes, indeed we don't. Look look here. Okay. So people used to complain that UC basketball did not graduate players, which by the way, was dramatically overstated. Yeah, mccronan comes in. Mccronin came in, and for the first couple of years, every player graduated, but they never made
the NCAA tournament. People stopped going to games. So you tell me what people can about. Oh, I know exactly what you mean, and I agree with you. I'm just saying from a esoteric kind of want of having that tradition or I guess the facade of student athletes. I was just calling back to that. But let's go ahead and talk about the my god, the elephant in the room, which is this Red's four game losing streak.
I think I text you in the middle of the week after the twenty to nine loss to the Cubs at Wrigley, and I said this close to football season. The Reds need to understand they need touchdowns, not just field goals. And you said n Gopher two. The next night it was sixteen to six, And I mean, and they couldn't do any They couldn't run, field, throw nobody. I'm the last two games, we're very winnable games, and yet the Reds found new and improved ways to lose. Yeah.
God, really frustrating. You know that that game on Wednesday, that's the worst game the Reds have played, I think in a long time. Don Sadak on the TV broadcast even said, you know, they lost a hundred games last season. I'm not sure any of them looked like the game on Wednesday. You know, sometimes you're pitching just as in effective, that's one thing. It's something else when you're pitching isn't effective and you're sloppy on defense,
and the Reds certainly were. The lost last night was really frustrating from the standpoint of this team. Starting pitching hasn't been very good. Last night, they got a good start, they had a three nothing lead, they had the bases loaded in the ninth inning, they had their all star closer on the mount of the tent, and none of it worked. I think they were what over ten last night with runners in scoring Yeah, you know,
the the the blowout losses, those things happen. Uh, they're magnified by the fact that their biggest weakness wasn't really addressed at the trade deadline, and their biggest sweetness certainly caught up to him during those games in Chicago. But the real frustrating ones are the ones against inferior opposition, which Washington is. You have a good starting pitcher on the mound who pitched well, you had a free, nothing lead, you couldn't tack on any runs, you
couldn't capitalize with guys in scoring position. Lad And on a night in which the Cubs lose, the Pirates lose, they could have gained a game. They could be back in first place this morning, and unfortunately that's not the case. No, that's and that was my next question. Model. Would it just shocked the hell out of you? It would me if any team from the NL Central is even playing in the World Series this year, much less winning, it would really shock the hell out of me, because that
division is just not very good. Yeah. Look, let's be honest that the class of the sport certainly the class of the National League is the Atlanta Brace. And then from a talent perspective, obviously you would put the Dodgers right behind them. But we also know how the baseball postseason works. Look. National League East last year had two one hundred win teams. The team
that won eighty six games in that division made the World Series. Now, I don't think either the Cubs, Brewers or Reds are as good as last year's Philly team. I think the Brewers are interesting from the standpoint that they're getting two starting pitchers back in Jake Woodruff and Wade Miley. But yeah, I think if you were to handicap postseason, I don't think that you would
put money on Cincinnati, Milwaukee or Chicago. But from a Reds perspective, that doesn't mean there's not great value in getting to the postseason and advancing in the postseason. You know. I keep hearing people say, well, look, you trade for a pitcher or you make some deals to get to the playoffs. It's not like they're going to win the World Series. Okay, Well, in the first round as of Wednesday, they would have played the
Miami Marlins. We're going to look down our noses at advancing in the postseason when we're talking about a franchise that hasn't done that since nineteen ninety five. So no, I don't believe any of the teams in the NL Central are going to make the World Series. I do think you have to account for
the fact that baseball's postseason is really random. But when you make it about the Reds, for a young team that's going to have this core together for a while, I think it would be great to see how they stood in the postseason, to see if they could advance, and then put him in a series against La or Atlanta, who is going to be a huge favorite with a lot of pressure, and let's see how they stack up. There's nothing to be lost by getting a chance to do that. It is Patrick
Ewing's sixty first birthday today. Your thoughts as a former New York basketball fan on Patrick Ewing, one of the most iconic college basketball players of all time, a two time Olympic gold medalist, a national champion, a Slam Dunk Hall of Famer, and a guy who for the New York Knicks transformed the
franchise. His knees betrayed him early, so he wasn't quite the shot locker, prefounder as a pro that he was in college, played at two NBA finals, and he also you know, if you if you look in his career versus other guys that you know of his generation that are also Hall of Famers, it's not like he played with a whole slew of All Star or Hall of Fame caliber teammates. Right in fact, as a Knicks fan, I can't think of another Hall of Famer that he played with, at least
in his prime. So they never really got him the help that he needed. But an iconic college player, not a very good college coach, a terrific NBA player, and a guy whose poster I had. I had a Patrick Ewing growth chart when I was a kid. So he's always going to be one of my favorites. All right, fantastic bo have a great weekend. What are you doing, by the way, this morning, I'm just curious playing golf? Oh okay, that was the golf card. I thought
that was breakfast backfiring. Might have been. Oh take care, brother, Mike Allen, Saturday midday, Ready to go, counselor how are you? I'm good, I'm all jazzed up and ready yep, up about hell of a week. Well, the main focus is going to be the new Trump indictment. I'll tell you what, in a word, garbage. There's nothing
there. I mean, there is just nothing Nudlin, Stacy Abrahams, Hillary Clinton, how came Jeffreys, and a litany of I mean you could go on both hands, I could take off both my shoes and count the toes and I still wouldn't reach the number of Democrats who denied election results and said that the election was stolen or that Trump was illegitimate. None of those have
been indicted on anything. Nancy Pelosi to add her that mix. It's just so blatant, it's so obvious, the whole dubble double standard of justice. So we're going to talk about that. And you know, the documents case. I think President Trump could possibly have some exposure there, not here.
This is just bs. I mean that's really you know, I don't even think I don't even think that document cases is relevant or should go anywhere, because there's no condemnation of Joe Biden, who had a hold of confidential documents that he wasn't allowed to have as a senator. I get that, or even as a vice president as a raw legal analysis, though he could have some trouble on that case. But you're right, when is the last time
you heard anything about Biden's document? Then nothing the garage, you know, and the whole whole thing, the other thing. Well, who's on the show? Just tell me real quick. Well, we're gonna have Steve Gooden, attorney Steve Gooden break down the new Trump indictment. He does a fantastic job on that stuff, so we're gonna have him. And then at eleven in studio, I'm gonna have Rachel c. Tach going to talk about issue
one coming down to the wire. The election is Tuesday, and of course eleven thirty we'll talk about the red Sloss where I was present last night. You were the reason I was. You were the reason. What a heartbreaker, man. They should have won that game. Definitely should have Mike Allen. Saturday, midday after the show, show at Huddles sling and drinks for Hillbillies and others. As always, we'll see you there seven w LW. When you drive the most dependable mass market brand, you can stop
