In nineteen eighty three, I Want my MTV Billy Idols
is sixty nine Today. It's hard to believe it is November thirtieth, last day of the month, twenty twenty four before we look ahead to look back at significant events had people tied to this particular date in history, including but not limited to these, the ceremonial end of Our Revolutionary War on this date in seventeen eighty two, when the US, the brand new United States, and Great Britain signed preliminary peace articles in Paris for ending that war.
The Treaty of Paris would be signed a year later in September eighty three, but this was the beginnings of what became our country. Nineteen thirty six, on this date in London's Crystal Palace Exhibit Hall destroyed by a massive fire. Nineteen ninety three, President Bill Clinton signed the Brady Bill, which required a five day waiting period for handgun purchases and background checks of people who wanted to buy them. November thirtieth, two thousand and four, Japan, Jeopardy fans saw
Ken Jennings lose into seventy four game winning streak. Let's see Israel approved the construction of three thousand homes and Jewish settlements twenty twelve. That didn't set well with some. A year later, movie fans saw Paul Walker, star of Fast and Furious, killed in a single car accident north of Los Angeles. Walker's friend Roger Rhodis, who was driving
the car, also died, was only forty. Let's see this is the date in twenty twenty two, just two years ago when House Democrats he elected jakeem Jeffries to be the first black American to had a major political party in Congress. Woody Allen is eighty nine. Today, filmmaker Ridley Scott is eighty seven. Let's see historian and screenwriter Jeffrey C. Ward eighty four. Today, Terrence Malick is eighty one. Playwright David Mamett is seventy seven, Mandy Patinkin is seventy two,
mentioned Billy Idol. Michael Beschloss, the Great Historian is also sixty nine, sharing a birthday with Billy Idyl. Colin Mokery Funny Guy is sixty seven. Ben Stiller is fifty nine. Today, Christy nom celebrates her fifty third birthday. Clay Aiken, former American Idol star, has a birthday today. Alicia Cuthbert is forty two. Chrissy Teagan I like to look at her as long as she doesn't open her mouth and talk,
and chess Grandmaster Magnus Carlson turns thirty four. If it is your birthday, I hope it is absolutely the best birthday anyone could imagine. Doing the things you love to do with the people you love to do them with, and that is truly my wish for you. It is five forty one good morning, seven undter WLW almost December morning, sun and afternoon clouds.

Eight overtimes.
Georgia trail twenty seven to thirteen with five minutes left in the ballgame and managed to send the game to ot thanks to a quick touchdown of fumble by the Georgia Tech quarterback, then another quick touchdown. Iowa defeated Nebraska thanks to a fifty three yard field goal was time expired.
Go guys.
They won the game with only five first downs and trailed ten to nothing at the end of the first half. Typical typical Iowa football. Go out, what else we got? Leave big time college football Slate. Today it's Rivalry Week and Ohio State Michigan at noon.

You are warning we are together again. Gary Jemp Walker with you on the Saturday morning edition. And wow, kind of wistful about the end of my favorite holiday of the entire year. We got Christmas coming up. Dig that love New Year's Eve, but Thanksgiving is a number one
with me and always has been. And my apologies because for the first time in a very long time, well first time since the COVID year in twenty twenty, because they wouldn't let us open up the bar, then I did not do Thanksgiving dinner at Huddles as people have thirteen of the last fourteen years. And a tip of the cap to everyone who feeds people at at any time of the year, but especially during this holiday. See and because I truly know what kind of work goes
into it. And it's not an easy thing to be very rewarding and gratifying when you see the appreciation of people who might not have any other way to enjoy and celebrate the holiday. But it was a year at home with christ To two point zero and Brooksy the cat dog, and a very few friends and neighbors, and it was the same amount of work, only not the transportation and not the volume of food we usually do.
But for those of you who have joined us in the past, and we're disappointed, I am truly sorry, but I hope you had a bountiful Thanksgiving, regardless of my
participation or not. And all the people who get together and feed strangers this time of the year, whether it's you know, the charities or the rest instaurants who opened their doors to anyone, to the Jose House in Newport, and it's countless others, we're thankful and grateful for you, as am I. With that said, it's time for somemometry action.
Good morning, Mametry, Good morning baby.
How was your Thanksgiving? Sweetheart?
Well, I didn't need it all week because of my triple maidor to that major surgery my dear, my mouth. I not only have one jaw bone. I was gifted with two jawbone surgeries, and he took the three. I'll come shrap now all in front of my mouth. So I had three marriages or surgeries in eighty two minutes. And I'm able to sing for you today. So I am truly thankful and grateful.
Well, God bless you guys, saying I can think, Oh, all right, you.
Sing, It's in my heart. The melody of God, It's in my heart.
Humility of your love, It's in my heart. How you die to set me free, It's in my heart.
It's in.
My heart.
I love you, Jesus A man. I love you, America, half of us. Thanksgiving.
I love you, Amity, and I feel great.
I just don't have my voice.
Sweetie. It's okay. I think your voice is beautiful this morning, especially since you're glorifying our God.
Thank you.
Love all right, take care and HeLa. We'll talk to you soon, mammetry after successful but apparently very very involved jaw surgery early this week. God bless her. Dick is hanging on and we will talk to him in moments on seven under WLW for some picking and some granted on a Saturday morning, and that means we head nor to our friend in Dayton. That'd be Dick from Dayton, and he's here, right here, right now. Good morning, Dick. What's going on, buddy? I'm good.
Are you enjoying this nice frigid weather?
Oh geez, it got cold?
You know, Yes it did, Yes, it did. Do me well, I tell you what, Dave from Dayton has to know a couple important things from you, some dick picks, if you will.
But before we get to that, I wanted to announce.
That our friend Dave Backwidth Backgrath Backrath from Dayton, your friend and mine, yes, had a fantastic Thanksgiving with all of his kids home and the announcement of his oldest daughter getting ready to deliver his fourth grandchild.
She is pregnant. It's a girl. Congratulations today.
What do you think? Yeah?
Great, guy, I'm hoping that the weather gets good.
We can see you around, you know, round the thirtieth right today is the thirtieth You mean the thirtieth, Well, I'm not the.
Thirtieth around your anniversary down there?
Oh yeah, that'll be the twenty eighth anniversary if it actually if we make it that long, and that'll be sometime in February of March, and I hope you can make it too. All right, who wins today's Ohio State Michigan game?
I say the Buckeyes will win twenty seven twenty four.
I could have predicted your prediction, all right. Now, do the Bengals have a chance to beat Pittsburgh and run the table and make the playoffs? You're talking about playoffs?
No, but they're going to beat Pittsburgh. I think they'll beat them thirty one to twenty four.
Oh a whole touchdown?
Huh?
Yes, Well, I don't know. Pittsburgh's got that much offense, so that might be a little high on the Steelers side. But there are a lot of Steelers fans in town. Do you have any special message for Steelers fans who are in town for the game?
Oh, Gary, Yeah, no, I don't. I don't want to talk about that.
Okay, you don't even want to flip them the flying finger of fate? No, okay, that's good, you're a nice man. Anything else going on? Note, Dick?
Oh, I have a little bit. It depended on the weather. This time of year, we don't play much the weather gets a cold and stuff.
You know, so you can't you can't play music when it's cold. Is that what you're telling me?
Well, I'm going to go Monday, but kettering, we're off till I think we go back to ninth. You know, we practice, okay, weather permitting, and then the strummer or the string vendors will play possibly.
Yeah, what about it?
What about a Christmas concert? Dick?
Come on, Oh, I'm forgetting u. The Beaver Creek Strummers will be back Thursday, weather permitting. They're supposed to have a concert. Oh in about about a week or so.
Okay, you don't know where that is?
Yeah, that's a the Beaver Creek Senior Citizen Center. I'll let you know next week.
Oh okay, Dick, you do that, and do me one more favorite. Say good night Dick, good night.
Joy Jeff.
Good old Dick from David still can't get him to say good night Dick, though we continue. Hey, pretty November the thirtieth, twenty twenty four, I'm Gary Jeff Walker, and aren't you glad you're not? Many have said the same. It is time to get things rolling in That means Dave from Harrison is standing by with some bad dad jokes.
Remember when you ran away and I got on my knees and begged you not to leave because I go, but sir, well you left me anyhow.
And then the.
Day's got worse and worse. And now you see, I've gone completely out of my mind, absolutely totally out of my mind coming to take me away. And here we are in our post Thanksgiving report from the One the Only Dave from Harrison. Good morning, Dave, Good morning Garrett Jeff.
Happy December Eve to you, my man.
That's right, it's a d we December Eve weekend.
As you would say, there you go, there you go, and what a thankful week it's been, you know, Dave.
Thing that maybe Dave doesn't want everyone to know he has an incredible clan. The family is it looks like the United Nations when they take pictures together, and there are many, many of them, and it is just did you have a wonderful time? And did you get to see almost everybody or everybody?
Dave?
Yes, extremely blessed with friends and family and and just all the blessings.
Yes, do you have anything for me?
Well, Gary, Jeff, I was wondering if you might know what's small and red and.
Whispers what is small and red? And whispers Dave.
A horse radish?
A horse radish.
Like like, Dave, Dave, stop while you're behind Super Liam a couple of weeks ago.
What's the difference between deer nuts and beer nuts?
Deer nuts and beer nuts?
Tell me, well, deer nuts are just under a buck and uh, and beer nuts are about forty nine cents. Okay, So the two guys are talking, an American guy and a French guy.
An American guy and a French guy.
And the American guy he says, do you play video games?
And the French guy says we.
Hey, Dave, Dave, Yeah yeah.
Jokes told by Dave from Harrison are not necessarily considered funny by the staff, management, or advertisers of seven hundred WLW or his parent company, iHeartMedia. If these attempts at humor have caused you to roll your eyes, made your im me churn, or we have considered the entire exercise to be a colossal waste of time, we deeply apologize. Now back to our irregular programming well.
And we continue on this Saturday morning with our friend who likes to play with knobs and tubes and wires.
Old radio.
Rick, you've heard of the spirit of the radio.
He is the man that makes the lights come on, and he's here with us on seven hundred WLW Rick Washburn, good morning, and how are you, my friend?
Good morning Gary, Jeff. Well, it is cold outside, so tig are outdoor cat. The closest thing we have to proceed is onset. He doesn't want to go outside, so he is. He is a handful this morning. So hopefully now how old?
How old?
My head knocked me up?
How old is it?
Oh, he's just a kit and he's twelve.
You have some of the oldest cats in recorded history at that house, so, which is a great thing if you're if you're a cat lover or a person who has cats, you love it when they get up there into the teens and then you know, occasionally the twenties, because uh yeah, they're your buddies, they're your friends.
And he's the youngest of the whole clian and we always call him the kitten. And I know he's obviously gotten bigger over the years. But may got one of those Facebook notices of remember this memory from twelve years ago, and there he is as a kit, and it's like, wow, holy blank, yeah, no doubt really.
So what are you working on this morning? Of anything? How are you receiving us? And give me the full report.
Solid five by five. You're coming in on a nineteen thirty seven Filko. This is a model thirty seven six thirty X console. It's a three band AM and shortwave with the infamous or maybe not so infamous shadow dial tuner, which they'll go to their credit did not want to pay RCA for patent rights to the magic ittube, so they made their own. And it's basically little orange opening and two little fingers kind of come together or and
I guess the way it works. It's partly mechanical, which is kind of cool, but it's kind of an opaque little or oval dial and this little needle moves back and forth, and the faster it moves, the wider the black range blocks out the light. I know I'm describing this worst ever, but basically it's like two fingers coming together or moving apart, and that's how you can tell if you've tuned in the radio eyes and just listen.
That kind of helps to two fingers coming together means you've got a signal right, exactly right, Okay.
All right, so I'm eighty dollars do this thing today would be about seventeen hundred and fifty bucks. And then the words of Judge right hold and ruthless people for the seven people other than myself that saw that movie, just effing finance it.
Yeah, that's the thing to in nineteen thirty seven. Eighty dollars.
Is equal seventeen hundred dollars thereabouts today, and that's without Biden inflation.
So, oh my gosh.
So it's it was quite an investment to buy a radio for the family, you know, and then a couple of years later they're trying to foist a TV on you, which I can't even imagine what the price of those first models was for a family. And that's why not everyone on the block had a radio that nice anyway, and certainly not everyone on the block would have a TV. I mean, there were times I remember listening to older relatives say, well, yeah, the mcginley's were the only ones
on the block that had a TV. We'd go out over and peer through their front window, keeping Tom TV because they had a TV.
But yeah, the radios were the main source of entertainment and especially news and so forth. You could go to the dealer and they treat it like selling the car would be today.
Well, I mean to put it in perspective, think about what the average person's salary was, the average salary of the median salary of nineteen thirty seven. We were still in the Great Depression, and so it was really a luxury to have a radio.
Absolutely. Hey, you want to go to the catalog.
Sure, let's hear the description of this beautiful.
Beast American and foreign. That's an interesting start until it says three tuning rangions with glowing beam, tuning range indicator, pen toed audio system. Well, I know that's sold all of us now, because you know what that means. No, Like, okay, the kind of tube?
Does that matter?
I love this fil Co color dial with fifty percent greater separation on foreign stations now number one. This is kind of cool because the tuning dial, the tuning knob, it's a two part knob. If you tune the center part, it's fine tuning. You tune the outer part, it's more coast course tuning. Excuse me, that works really well. The color dial, yes, it is a color dial. It's orange. It's not a second color to it, but I love this. The inclined sounding board filks. All the Filco models illustrated
on this page feature the famous Pilco. The famous Pilco inclined sounding board the greatest single advance in scientific sound reproduction. Though it's marvels, you can enjoy a truly lifelike reproduction of speech and music. The slope directs the high noise treble up to your ears, preserving the sparkling brilliance of the original. The large sounding board area faithfully reproduces a low noise base, thus preserving the depth and snority of
the original sonorty. Yeah, that's what it says, result clear lifelike reception as if the artists were present in quote in person unquote. Now, I'm sorry that your nineteen forty one Filco does not feature this particular option. However, if you go outside and find somebody that has a brick, you can borrow, put it in front of the cabinet and lean it back, slide and there you go.
You know what I mean. I know Kamala Harris wasn't alive at the time, but it sounds like she wrote that description in the catalog. That is a word relative.
No doubt it was a relative.
Okay, Rick, listen, have a fantastic rest of the weekend, and we'll talk to you hopefully next Saturday, if not before. All right, old man, take care, O love you too, Old Radio Rick at gmail dot com. If you'd like to get in touch with mister Washburn and have your old classic beauty shined up and ready to roll.
As you work throughout the day, we'll see Temptress climb to the lobe. Maybe mid thirties. Chances for snow move in late, but out of here before you wake up tomorrow morning. From you severe weather station. I'm nine first Warning Meteorologist Cameron Harton on news radio seven hundred WLW.

Kickoff is set for one pre game covers because at nine thirty right here on seven hundred WLW.
Have some exciting college football Yesterday and today it's rivalry week as we know, Yeah, rivalry.
We kicked off with a bang between Georgia and Georgia Tech. Georgia top the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. Forty four to forty two. It took eight overtimes to decide a winner.
In that one, Georgia trail twenty seven to thirteen with five minutes left in the ball game, and they managed to send the game to overtime and from there it was just two So after the second overtime, you have to do two point conversions, right, and it was nobody wanted to win at first, it seemed like, but eventually Georgia was able to get it done.
Speaking of nobody scoring, Iowa Nebraska was a barn burner of sorts.
Yeah, Iowa defeated Nebraska thanks to a fifty three yard field goal as time expired. Iowa trailed ten to nothing in the first half. They had five first downs and they managed to win this game against Nebraska at home. That's Big ten football and the cold.
Yeah.
Today, we've got a full slate of great games too.
Yeah, Rivalry week, unreal slate of games. Tonight you see host TCU for Senior Night kickoff e set for six. Pre game coverage begins at five cats all the action right here on seven hundred WLW Kentucky host Louis at noon. You can listen to that game on ESPN fifteen thirty.
Got Vanderbilt Tennessee and of course the big noon kickoff in Columbus at the Shoe, Ohio State versus that team from up north.

Hey, let's do some high school scores from last night.

I'm blue chasing those blues away and there's no better place to do it than at a bar. On a Saturday morning at six thirty seven, we had East my friends to how now Brown County, the lovely village of Ripley, Ohio and the Gang at Brookies. Good morning, Gang.
Morning.
So this is a big weekend for the oil baron of Brown County. His Ohio State Buckeyes are hosting that team from up north, whom I will mention Ohio State is not beaten in a while.
Yeah.
They've also become known as the Cheaters up North.
But you know, uh huh, well, let's let's not make excuses. Let's not make excuses for your past misfortune against Michigan.
Doug.
I call him the cheaters up North team.
Yeah, I I we we got that the first time. I understand. Uh, how does how does Ryan Day keep his job if he doesn't beat Michigan today, Doug, that's the question.

So well, it's just like rain.

I guess I have no idea. Good morning, Steven, how are you?
Good morning Gary, Jeff, and audience.
As your Saturday Morning scribe, I'll call out conservatives too when they go overboard good. This week I found out that failed Boss of the Year Ellen DeGeneres is dragging her husband wife comfort dog whatever Portia de Rossi to England to escape the alleged tyranny of the Trump administration. I categorically oppose Trump deporting Ellen, which I view as a political stunt, because we all know anybody who has ever worked for Ellen she is an obnoxious ingrate and
should burn in Hell. Thus Trump picked the most unlikable person he could find to be the first depoor t But since you cannot deport a live person to Hell, Trump and Ellen's attorneys apparently agreed to allow her to go to England because she feels she will have more freedom living under a monarchy than a constitutional republic here in the United States. And I think we're all agreed that Ellen has always thought of herself as royalty. Ah,
that's for you, Ellen. And since the labor government over there wants to revise or scrap all the current sex laws in Britain, she will be right at home. She's already married her comfort dog. Lame Turkey. President Joe Biden honoring a long standing tradition, and was expected to pardon a Turkey this week. Most of you thought I would descend into a cheap joke and claim it was hunter Biden, But you would be wrong. Clearly, Joe would be moving too soon, because God knows what crap first Kid might
come up with between now and January twentieth. So at eleven fifty nine am on Inauguration Day and not a day sooner, the prodigal son will be absolved of all of his political sins. No this week, no pardon for anybody by Joe. He found out that the tank up the Thanksgiving Gobbler has led a January sixth insurrection at a turkey farm run by homeless people who have taken
over Central Park in New York. So basement Biden got New York City Prosecutor Extraordinaire Alvin Bragg, who claims turkeys are the reason he's a fat slob, to file riot charges on Tom Turkey, and the same judge who went after Trump has forced Tom to post a five million dollar bail bond or be jailed in a kitchen of a Manhattan restaurant, which we all agree is pretty much a death sentence. Oh, still coughing and choking on Ellen.
Speaking of birthdays, Gary Jeff Ellen, degenerate, I'm sorry, degenerous is sixty six and catch this carinn Jean Pierre is fifty Yes, the Big Five.
Oh.
When I heard that, I thought they confused it with her IQ and they used to say Ronald Reagan could hide his age. Wow. Carinn is leaving the sinking ship early. She signed out. She signed on this week to be the pr person for the Menendez brothers who are still in the slammer for killing their parents. The boys have trotted out that abused child defense, which any lawyer will tell you is not a defense for murder unless you kill mom and dad in the act of physical abuse
and you can claim self defense. And refusing to give you the car keys to the BMW boys is not abuse, it's good parenting. And you can't get away with killing your parents and ask the judge for mercy because you're now orphans. Speaking of bad guys named Benendez, Bob the former senator from New Jersey who is fighting those bribery charges may be able to plead insanity. He asked his lawyers, and I quote, if I kill my wife who spilled the beams on my capers, can I claim I'm an orphan?
I think so.
This week's Hutzpah Award goes to Meeko, which is suing the United States in American courts for manufacturing guns used by the drug cartels in Mexico. Hey, Jose, how about we suing you for transporting into the US fentanyl, rapists, murders, and drug and human traffickers. You know you could take our guns and subdue those bad guys while they're still in Mexico, couldn't you if you really wanted to? Oh my goodness, Well, Gary Jeff, it's only a couple of
weeks and we celebrate Jesus' birthday. Hey, everybody, enjoy the holidays.
Thank you, Gary, Jeff, Steve, I'm grateful for you. Thank you, sir.
Wunny, but wind chills making it feel close to the single digits. As you work throughout the day, we'll see tempters climb to the lobe, maybe mid thirties.

Another hour of the Saturday Morning Nation for this Saturday, November the thirtieth, twenty twenty four. I'm Gary Jeff Walker, and you are you and that is perfectly fine with me. And Steve Shulty did correct me. Mister Simpson was not part of the celebration in the studio when Cole Rane won the state championship twenty years ago.
But I see tree so green.
Red roses too, I seen them blue, and I think to myself.
What I wonder, Oh what a wonderful world it is. And yes, Stephen, I remember very well, Steve uh you bringing matth to toe Shulty in the studio when they the Cole Rane Cardinals had won a state championship. I can't believe it's twenty years ago?
Is that is that right?
I mean geez, I mean talk about time flying by that That was that was nuts. It was great and very very uh very special memory for I know for you, especially as as a dad of a state champion.
You got it. So today in this season of Thanksgiving, brought to you by the CO two Coalition, dot org gives us five things climate realists can be thankful.
For this year.
Okay, Their CO two is feeding the world, increasing carbon dioxide levels of turbocharging, plant and crop productivity. Baseball two hundred city lay up studies over many, many years has showed that increasing CO two concentrations by three hundred parts per million will increase crops studied by an average of
for some crops actually double. Number two warming minor warming trend is not unusual, though unprecedented minor arming began more than three hundred years ago, lifting us out of the death dealing cold of the Little Ice Age from twelve fifty to eight fifty. In fact, that period from the late sixteen hundreds of the early seventeen hundreds was a brutally cold period called the modern or minimum. Number three.
Sea level rise is small, non accelerating. Modern sea level rise began in the eighteen hundreds, well before industrialization and the rise of CO two, and continues at about the seven same rate today, which is about seven inches per century. Number four are human advancement. Warmer is better than colder.
Before climate science has become politicized and lipinized. Warm periods were referred to by climates by scientists as quote climate optima because almost all species on Earth, warmer is better than cold. Both past and present warm periods directly are directly linked to advancements in science, technology, and the arts, as the abundance of food freeze people to pursue other things than just daily survival. And lastly, by not least five, more CO two means moisture soil. More CO two in
the air means more moisture in the soil. Because more CIA two causes the pores or the stamata of leaves to be open for shorter periods of time, the leaves lose less water and more moisture remains in the soil, helping plants fight throughout.
I'm grateful I know that. And you mentioned the CO two coalition CO two dot org, which the head of that is a man named Gregory Wrightstone. Doctor Wrightstone is a famed geologist and climate scientist. And his book is An Inconvenient Warming, which I have a copy of that he sent me.
Well. He also has a new book very identity. This past week it's called A Very Convenient Warming, modest warming and more CA two are benefiting humanity.
Right on, good good stuff all and happy Thanksgiving to you my friend, you too, Garry, Yeah, you got it. We continue on. Seven hundred WLW thousand will die by suicide.
Butler County veterans are one and a half times more likely to die by suicide than non veterans. But that's one hundred percent preventable.

Coming up seven sixteen on a Saturday, dingle.
And as you may have heard during the news, the Salvation Army doing the most good is honoring our friends the late Jim Scott with a Remember in December Red Kettle campaign that is kicking off. It's a special campaign designed to promote the need for volunteers during this year's Red kettle season, and I just have a quick story about Jim and the Salvation Army and the bell ringing campaign.
I can't remember exactly what year it was. It may have been the best recollection, twenty sixteen or twenty seventeen. Jim had already retired from seven hunderd WLW, but he was at the studio still and he was doing commercials or something, hanging out and he caught me in the hallway, said Gary, Jeff, you got a second, and he pulled me in one of the production studios.
I'm going, what's Jim Scott want with me?
And he sat down. He said, I just wanted to ask you, and I think that I think this is perfect for you. I would like to ask you if you will volunteer for the Salvation Army and do a bell ringing stop. I said, Jim, you know, I never thought about it, but sure, I can donate a couple of hours of my time. It's not like it's going to kill me. And so we were. My wife Chris the two point zero and I volunteered and I believe
it was a Saturday before Christmas. It was extremely cold like today, you know, windshills in the in the single digits and in the teens, and we stood at the entrance of the Newport Pavilion Kroger for a couple of hours. I brought my little boombox. We had Christmas music playing there in the lobby just as the you know, the big double doors open outside and then there's the entrance
going into the store. And sat there around the red kettle for a couple of hours, and it was the most fulfilling volunteer work I think I've ever done it. It was such a great feeling just to be a part of that, and it was all because Jim Scott personally asked me to volunteer. So when you see the bell ringers and the red kettles this holiday season, whatever you can do. And we're a very generous people as Americans and as people who are in the greater Cincinnati
area in northern Kentucky. But I will always think of Jim Scott at this time of year because of that moment when he said, Hey, Gary, Jeff, you got a second And it was some of the most valuable two hours that I spent that season, sure and probably in all my life. Thanks to Jim Scott and the Salvation Army remember in December.
It's on.
Time now for the Tom Davis Diaries I like to refer to as the and here is the afore mentioned Tom Davis Report. Good morning Gary, Jeff.
This week John Mellencamp said it best play guitar, but first, it was an interesting meeting in London by two of the world's most unique people. Romisa Gelgi, the world's tallest woman, had tea with Geoti Amgi, the world's shortest woman. The difference between the two well, one is seven foot one while the other is two foot one. They say they had a nice lunch where they talked about makeup, skincare and manicures. A guy on YouTube says he's come up
with the cure for dandruff, not washing your hair. He says that he hasn't washed his hair in eight years and as dandriff is gone, as well as his chronic scalp conditions, they've all stopped.
But all is not well in the world of scalps.
Head and shoulders is speaking up, saying that some hair requires shampoo to be its best. Meanwhile, Simon English of Beverly, England is doing all he can to get the flesh eating disease off his butt. So far, he spent four weeks in the hospital and undergone four surgeries after his butt cheek was infected. Luckily, doctors are expecting him to make a full recovery. And finally, keeping with a medical theme, Colin Miller was busy playing his guitar while doctors performed
brain surgery on him. He stayed awake and kept himself busy for eight hours during the operation. He chose to stay awake to avoid losing mobility in his hands and fingers. He's now fundraising for brain tumor research.
Next week. Playing grounded for four days.

Jove childon on seven hundred WLW, home of the best Bengals coverage.
All right, Tony Pike joining me this morning. Tony, we had Thanksgiving football. Now we got to talk about after Thanksgiving football. You have an extra week to prepare for the Steelers. What do you do in that extra weekend? How do you beat the Steelers?
You know, it's a little bit of a mix. You obviously want to get rest. You had a long season up to this point, a very physical and mentally demanding season. So you're getting away a little bit. You're you're taking time for yourself, but you're also putting that game plan. Pittsburgh is so good defensively that it's a little bit of a blessing to have extra days to talk about their defense, to look about what they do. Break everything down first down, second down, third down, red zone, every
scenario that you can go down you're looking at. You're looking at percentages of when they do what, when do they blitch? When don't they blitz? When do they send four, five, six? So you're really breaking down and trying to look at everything from a tendency standpoint that Pittsburgh does to get ready for the game itself. And then you're you're looking back and you're going to watch what else is going on for the Bengals. A good first step last night
because the Miami Dolphins lost. You need to watch what Denver does. You need to watch what Indy does going forward. You need to win some football games. So you're at kind of the scoreboard watching and put up a shut up time for this Bengals team.
Hey, nobody really picked the Steelers to do much as your new quarterback, their offense, that just it didn't seem like they were the nineteen twenty seven New York Yankees.
Are you surprised at the Steelers' success this year?
I can't be, because you know, we talked about all the time, Mike Tomlins never had a losing season as the head coach at Pittsburgh, So somehow, some way, they find ways to do more with less. In my opinion, yes, it's an absolutely great defense, but they are with Russell Wilson right now. Okay, at quarterback, they don't have a dominant running game. George Pickens is a good young player, but they don't have a ton of star power on
the offensive side of the ball. They're great in special teams, They're an elite defense, and they're asking Russell Wilson not to go out and make mistakes to swing momentum. And they're on a football games that way, and you know they have a true identity that comes straight from their head coach. You know what you're gonna get when you play Pittsburgh. It's gonna be tough. They're gonna knock down,
drag you out. They're gonna get three four yards and a cloud of dust and try to strengthen the game a little bit. But I can't say I'm surprised because we've seen this year in and year out from Mike Tomlin.
Now, all right, Tony Pike, thanks so much for your time this morning. It's the Bengals update.
Imagine being Cincinnati's famous quarterback and having a massive problem.
You win chills, making it feel close to the single digits. As you work throughout the day, we'll see Tempter's climb to the low maybe mid thirties.

Mercedes Benze Ford Mitchell dot Com in to another hour of this Saturday morning edition for Saturday, November thirty, twenty twenty four. Gary Jeff Walker with a shout out to mister Evans and the Kagers who were gathering together to watch the annual Ohio State and that Team Up North rivalry game in the Big Ten. Came into the bar yesterday.
So hello mister Evans and the case. I say mister Evans because as much as I remember meeting them, yes, I can't remember whether his first name was Mike Evans or Mark Evans, but a great bunch of guys, no doubt. This guy's name Mike. I don't forget his name, of course, I've been saying it for over twenty years now, Science money with a science minute.
Yes, as a night scientist even be surprising it bell blinding me.
With good morning, Michael.
How are you we're getting up there?
Are we? Oh?
Geez? When I found out Steve Shulty's reminder earlier that it had been twenty years since col Rain, which his son was on that team, won the state championships, I was like just blown away because it you know, you hear old people like me say this all the time, but it seems like yesterday. It just yesterday, and you know, and it's been two decades now. It's it's amazing.
I think I'm I think I'm the oldest guy at work.
Are you really?
I think so?
Yeah.
Well, thankfully I've got a couple of octagens that come into the bar, so I'm not the oldest guy in there, but I'm going to give them a run for their money, that's for sure.
I'm sleep deprived from the from the Georgia Georgia Tech Game last night.
So we'll just move on for I start not and all.
Oh that that was eight overtimes.
Yeah, Katah say it's gonna be yes, this is no.
You know what I before you go, We've got some extra time this morning. I remember the Georgia Georgia Tech rivalry game on Thanksgiving weekend because my parents had some good friends, Don and Edith Farmer, who would we We always Thanksgiving together as families back in the day when we were kids, and I remember that they would play bridge and they would have the TV on watching the Georgia Georgia Tech game because Edith had gone to Georgia Don had gone to Georgia Tech. And this is a
loving Christian couple who loved each other. But I never heard so many foul words come out of their mouth at each other while the game was being played. To goodness, these two wonderful Christian people who are good friends of my parents became mortal enemies on Thanksgiving weekend because of that football.
Do you want to pull the rabbit ears off the team?
Yeah?
Exactly, boy. So what you got that we got here? This is I dug this out of interesting engineering site. Now this is from the Journal of science robotics, and it was kind of buried in there, but I thought it was very interesting.
They have created a nano robot and what it's a robot. And they made this.
Robot out of DNA strand DNA strand, and they folded the DNA strand back and forth and.
Actually made a hand out of it. And it's actually.
Appliable gripping tool robot the size of the DNA DNA strand. And what they do is at the end of the
fingers they'll ta certain things called DNA aptimers on it. Now, these aptomers are really chemical equivalent of antibodies, so they're able to take take the robot and for example, it's it's targeted for the COVID nineteen virus, it will actually go reach find find the protein on the virus and this this hand will actually wrap around the virus itself and keep it from entering into into a into a cell. And next, obviously you can you can make these DNA
aptimers target other other type of viruses. Okay, you can cancer, you can you can do do a very multiple things with it. And they can also take this DNA, this DNA hand robot and they can attach with a fluorescent molecule to it, and you get enough of these uh DNA hands and wrap around the virus that when you when you act, when you pass it through a l
ed or a laser, it actually fluoresces. And it actually can do an individual count by count a virus count in a certain amount of say a blood sample, to know how far how infectious you are, or how much you have in your the virus you have in you based based on sample.
Okay, what about what about actually taking care of the virus. They need to find one that strangle the virus and kill it.
Well, that's what this does. It wraps around the virus and kills it.
Oh, that's that's wonder that's remarkable.
Of course, it's probably easier with COVID nineteen since that also was a mad made product in a lab to begin with.
I assume that they're going to be flying it to other type of flu viruses and well, sure.
But it'll be much easier with one that they manufactured in the lab for the purpose of creating a vaccine and making the all sick. Right, Mike, It'll never get too old. I will never quit with this. Thank you, sir. Have a fantastic weekend and we are grateful for you. It's eight twelve and some change on a Saturday morning. It's seven hundred WLW, and then there's this. It's the last blast.

All love the love of God.
And were trying to be positive wherever possible on the program. One of the ways in which we do that is by bringing the Word of God to you via our friend Rick Green from Spirit Works Cincinnati. On a week that we really should all be very very grateful for all of our blessings, and it is wonderful to have you here, brother Rick, on a Saturday morning once again, and I am grateful for you.
Hey, good morning, Gary, Kah. I'll walk up praying for.
You and your listeners.
Yeah.
Every time I hear that.
Song, it just brings me so much joy.
And it lines up with the scripture of the day.
Gary.
It's from John fifteen, verse twelve. It says, my command is just love each other as I have loved you. That's the word of God for today.
Gary.
That's a word to live by every single day.
And you know, Jarl was thinking while I was on hold, and I kept reading the scripture over and over. Yeah, I personally think it's so difficult to accomplish this because we want to hold on to too much of us and not enough of Jesus.
That's what I believe.
Oh no, yeah, And one of my prayers more and more is less of me and more of Him.
Amen. Amen, that's the only way.
There's no other way.
No, you ne forget a better day.
So now, I mean, I don't know if you're you're willing and ready to die for someone else this morning, but he died for all.
Of us, Amen, And then I'm so grateful for.
It, and that's love. Thank you, brother Rick. Have a great race. Rest of your weekend.
Brother. Okay, well you all have a blessed day, all right.
Thank you, sir.

Good morning kid, Time for gifts from Wally.
Your host has obviously been overdosing on the Yellowstone Marathon. An old cowboy sits down at a Starbucks and orders a cup of coffees. He sits sipping his coffee. A young woman sits down next to him. She turns to the old cowboy and says, are you a real cowboy? And he said, well, it's spent my whole life breaking colts, working cows, going to rodeos, fixing fences, pulling calves, bailing hay doctor and calves, cleaning my barn, fixing flats, working
on tractors, and feeding my dog. So I guess you'd call me a cowboy. She said, well, cowboy, I'm a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about naked women. As soon as I get up in the morning, when I shower, when I watch TV, I think about naked women. It seems everything makes me think of naked women. The two sat in silence. A couple of minutes later, a man sits down on the other side of the old cowboy and asks, are you a real cowboy?
Said?
Well, I always thought I was, but turns out I'm a lesbian.

What's going on?
Oh?
Just jamming to a little llll cool jay.
You know the usual.
I like it.
I like it.
I knew you would. So I'm gonna ask you first and foremost, what did you do for Thanksgiving? And do you have a a favorite way that you like to enjoy the turkey?
My favorite way to enjoy the turkey is with someone else making it. And and I we it was very relaxing, It was low key.
It was.
We were well fed.
Any special preparation that you prefer, fried, roasted? I mean, what do you think?
So? I smoked one last year and I enjoyed it. And this year we were back in the oven, and I think I enjoyed that just a little bit more. And I've done the fried thing like I I like turkey, so I'll eat it any particular way. I would say, of the ways I've done it, smoked was probably my least favorite. I love smoked meat. So this year we kind of went back to the original roasted in an oven. My wife makes an awesome brine, so it was it was very good. You know what.
I didn't even Brian my turkey. And we had a small bird because it was just me and the wife this year. Didn't go to the bar and serve Thanksgiving dinner like I have thirteen of the last fourteen years. But it turned out tender and juicy even without the Brian. So I guess we did something right, perfect, not dry at all. Just yeah, just right right there in the sweet spot. Now, what's your favorite Thanksgiving weekend rivalry in college football? Because there are varied and many.
Yeah. I mean, I am not, by any stretch in Ohio State fan, okay, but I love that rivalry with Michigan. And there's you know, a lot riding on it for Ohio State this year, a little bit less for Michigan. But it's you know, a lot of coaches will pay lip service to a rivalry, but I'm not sure how much it really means to them. I don't think that's the case with Ryan Day. I don't think that was the case with Jim Harbaugh. I don't think that's the case with Sharon Moore at Michigan. You know, those are
two historically significant programs. There's always something on the line in that game. And you know, I mean for Ohio State, it's obviously, you know, getting to the college football playoffs, but also a game that Ryan Day hasn't won him quite a while, and I think he'd be the first to tay you. You know, you come to come to Columbus, you could have success against everybody else, just as John Cooper, you've got to be. You've got to be to rival up North and so I you know, they played at
noon every year. It's just of all these Thanksgiving weekend rivalries, and there's a lot of great ones.
You know.
The Iron Bowl is going to happen today between Alabama and Auburnrific Florida Florida State are going to play. But Ohio State Michigan really is And I'm not a fan of either, but Ohio State Michigan really is special.
Yeah, Alabama and Auburn, I mean that's a rivalry so fierce that you know, the fans of the other team poison trees on the other school's campus and stuff just nuts for me today. While Ohio State Michigan is obviously huge and the one that everybody points to, I'm looking at Vandy, Tennessee. This is a huge game for my Vanderbilt commodorees to solidify their their bowl position and to beat the Valls. And it goes back to when I
first was in radio in Nashville. I came back in like eighty four, I think, and we were doing a remote on the Vanderbilt campus before the Vandy UT game. And this is what turned me into it. I will never support the big orange kind of guy. There is a woman, probably I don't know. It's eight thirty in the morning first, and we're out there and it's kind of chilly there in Nashville, and people have campers set up and stuff for the tailgate before the Vandy UT game.
And it's eight thirty in the morning. The game's not till I don't know, one or two o'clock in the afternoon, and a woman stumbles out of a trailer and she's got bloody Mary juice running down her T shirt with a cup in her hand, and she just said, Govals, I said, I can't root for that team. I just can never root for Ut ever again. Govals And probably was a nice woman and fairly attractive when she was dulled up, but not at eight thirty in the morning
with bloody mary juice running down her shirt. So that convinced me that I was going to be a Vandy Commodo or fan that game and from that point on and Diego Pavia and the Vandy Commodoors have a chance to do something really special today.
Yeah, no question, fun story, cool rivalry. That woman sounds like somebody I'd.
Want to hang out with, though, uh yeah, before or after the Six Bloody Marys in the course of the is the course of the Six Bloody Marys. Georgia Georgia Tech last night, eight overtimes? How about that for a rivalry?
Love it?
I mean it was Georgia Tech went up twenty to six and you still didn't feel like the game was totally over because Kirby Smart's team has just, over the course of the last six seven years, figured out a
way to win that football game. And then it's amazing to me when teams get you know, we talked about this with two point conversions in the NFL, When teams get in a situation where you know, it's it's two yards to go because you know, they obviously play alternating two point conversions, and they're fair debates about whether that's the best way to settle a great game like that, It it becomes amazing how uninventive the team's become offensively and I think that was kind of in play there
last night. But that was a great scene and it's a really good rivalry. But also, you know, Georgia's college football playoff life was kind of twisting in the win last night. They still figure out a way to win. And heartbreak for the Yellowjackets because I think the folks down there were really I know that from being there last weekend, they were really pointing at that game as one that they could maybe win. George's now won what thirty consecutive home games by the skin of their teeth last.
Night and last night Iowa beats Nebraska, And does it say more about Iowa? We already knew about Iowa and their total dearth of offense, I mean not just this season, but for seasons immeasurable. But what does it say about Nebraska that Iowa wins that game on a last second field goal and only has five first downs the entire sixty minutes?
Says i always got a good defense and did a good job against Dylan Royola at the quarterback of the Huskers. There are certain games it's like when the Ravens and Steelers play. You know, the score is going to be
like nineteen to thirteen. And in any Big ten game that Iowa plays where they have a chance of winning, you know, not where they get blown out, but where they have a chance of winning, you know, the score is going to be sixteen, thirteen, thirteen, ten, you know something like that, and thirteen to ten yesterday with a walk off game winning kick.
So you see as Senior Night, the last game of the season for the Bearcats playing TCU, tee it up.
Well, I think if if by ten o'clock tonight we're talking about a season that started with the Bearcats being five and two and it ends with them being five and seven, you know, quite frankly, not only is that going to leave a really rotten taste in everybody's mouth, I think that's that's going to be something that's going to be a really hard sell to a lot of Bearcat fans who are trying to feel like the program
is moving in the right direction. And you know, if you go back, you know, five or six weeks ago, it really felt like, you know, this was this was going in the right direction. They won their fifth game, beat a good Arizona State team, and.
Yeah, they were five and two, at that point, right.
Yeah, yeah, folks were even wondering like could could they sneak into the Big twelve championship game? And since then, I think not only have they lost the four straight games, but they they've just kind of gotten progressively worse. You know, they were non competitive, I thought for the most part against Kansas State last week. And so I think the first thing for me is, you know, just mentally, where
are the Bearcats right now? Because you know, being down there this week and talking to a handful of players, they've talked a lot about Senior Night. They've talked about, as every team does, we want to win this one for our seniors. They've talked about one to a ball game. But I just wonder if things start to go poorly early in the game on a cold night at Nippert Stadium, I'm not sure how many people are going to be there.
You know, what do we see?
Do we see any fight from U? See? This is a good TCU team.
You talk about one of.
The bigger overachievers in the conference, a TCU team that still has an outside chance of getting to the Big twelve championship game. They can beat teams in the air, but the Bearcat's biggest opponent the last few weeks, I think, frankly has been themselves. And I think the most glaring issue has been the fact that they just have they
have totally gone gun shy offensive. They haven't thrown the ball deep, they haven't been able to take advantage of what I think still are are a good group of weapons. And so you know, there's obviously not a huge difference between being six and six and five and seven. But at six and six, you're probably going to a ball game and you have a chance to finish with a
winning record. You go five and seven, you know, again, to go from five to two to five and seven is going to be I think a really really hard sell for this program this coming offseason.
I was glad I was working at the bar yesterday because I don't have Amazon Prime at home, and we do have it at the bar. So I got to see my Kansas City Chiefs one more time eke out of victory against a team they should be pummeling, the Las Vegas Raiders. What is it with this Chiefs team? I mean they just outside of the Bills game, they just continue to win games that they look like they have no business winning or playing like they're gonna.
I mean, what is the key there nineteen to seventeen against the Raiders.
Huh Yeah.
They allow the other team to hang around because they're not great offensively, and they keep the other team from winning because they've gotten some unbelievable luck in special teams play. They've gotten some really good special teams play, and they've been terrific on the defensive side of the football. And you know, you just as you're watching the Raiders drive down the field yesterday, if you're like me at least, you're wondering, like, all right, how's Kansas City gonna pull
the rabbit out of their hats? You know, obviously it's it's it's remarkable, but you know, you do wonder. It's like, how for for the greatness of Mahomes and Reed and Kelsey and and that franchise, and and they are to be admired as much as people in Cincinnati don't want to hear that, Like is this formula going to work? And what is going to be an excruciatingly competitive AFC? You know, I mean, obviously the Bengals have a very uphill battle getting into the postseason. But let's say they
got in as the seventh seed. That's that's that's the best seventh seed arguably in the history of this of this format, seventeen per conference format. That's how good this this conference is. And so I just I wonder, I wonder is this formula going to work? But I think what you can think is a Chiefs fan is you know, last year in the regular season, they weren't great, and
then what happened. They got into the postseason. Travis Kelcey looked like Travis Kelcey again, Patrick Mahomes looked like Patrick Mahomes again, and they figured out a way to beat
teams they were not favored to beat. But it is it has been remarkable this year how they have figured I mean, it's it's like the the opposite of the Bengals right where they've had these games right that they were, you know, a player two away from winning and they haven't been able to make the right play or something has gone against them. And the opposite has been true this year for Kansas City, including in the game the two teams played against each other.
Who's terrible tomorrow, the terrible Towels or the Bengals.
The Bengals defense you know what I'm what I'm curious is, you know, the Steelers the last two weeks offensively have not been great. You know, they won a game against the Ravens from two weeks ago, but they didn't score an offensive touchdowns they like, And then yeah they did, and then last weekend in the or last Thursday and the snow against the Browns kind of the same thing.
Can the Bengals defensively take advantage and and how is the Christian in the secondary going to be exposed by Russell Wilson and the Pittsburgh offense that hasn't been great over the last couple of weeks. I trust Joe Burrow to score. I trust Joe Burrow to play well against whichever defense is out there. But with the benefit of a little extra time to prepare, can Lou and Aroumo get this defense to play at a league average level. I'm not sure the answer is yes over the course
of the final six games of the season. But if the answer is yes tomorrow, frankly they should win the football games.
