Well, good morning, Thursday, July eighteenth, Show fifty one, ninety eight Morning Show with Preston Scott. I am Preston alongside the producer who has been named Jose can you see and Jared over there in Studio one. A great to be with you. This show has changed in the last forty five minutes and so I'm still trying to order some thoughts into my brain here.
So yeah, this is going to be an interesting ride here today. Hope you plan on sticking around because there are developments coming in the assassination attempt on Donald Trump that are disturbing it at that. Our verse today comes from Luke six thirty eight, and what's cool about this verse is that we've seen it on display around these studios in recent days. Now, I'm challenging those of you in Panama City to do what you can and plan on dropping off.
It's our final week next week of dropping off Box fans. But to say the response has been heartwarming is an understatement. It's been terrific people dropping off Box fans, and so the challenge now is for those of you in Panama City to step up and help out as well. Working with the Panama City Council for Aging and distributing box fans to senior adults on fixed incomes. But
listen to this verse, give and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, it will be put into your lap. For with the pleasure you use it, it will be measured for with the measure. Sorry, for with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. It's an interesting thing and might be a crude analogy, but you ever open up a bag of chips in this day and age and you're like, really, that's it. And what they'll
tell you is that settling cause that, And there's truth to that. When you pour anything into a container, any kind of container, unless you want to break it all up, whatever it is that's in there, it requires you to shake it to fill it to its capacity. And so we lament the fact that a bag of potato chips hardly has any chips in it, because when you shake it, it settles, and so you open it up
and it looks like there's a half a bag of chips there. I mean, just ask Jose He was sitting there eating flaming hot ruffles this morning at five point forty five in the morning for Pete's sake. And I know that when he opened up that bag there were far fewer than he'd hoped to see that could see his eyes as he opened him up. He's like, hey, remember my ethnic heritage. But this verse speaks to that concept. Given,
it will be given good measure, pressed down, shaken together. So you take that amount and you shake it and it settles, and then you pour more on top of it until it's pouring over. Challenge is very clear, be generous in your heart and you don't necessarily have to give money or stuff. It can be time, it can be your prayers, it can be words of encouragement. And this scripture speaks to the law of sowing and reaping. You know, if you throw down corn seed, you're not getting
beans, you're getting corn. The type of seed that you sow determines the type of crop that you reap. So the challenge to start the day and for you to talk about with your kids when they wake up is what kind of seed are you sowing? And are you sowing so much as to receive an abundance of blessing back. We don't give to get, We give because it brings joy and it honors God. God's principle says you'll be blessed in
return. Don't you worry about it. Ten minutes past the hour. This is going to be a day now, So kids, buckle up, put your helmet and shoulder pads on, because this is not going to be for the feint of heart. The things that we got to talk about today on the show. We will have Steve Stewart with us. Next hour, Doctor Steve Steverson. It's the hour of Steve's Pause for Thought, some reminders in
the wake of some tragic deaths of dogs. So stay with us. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott. It's the Morning Show with President Scott. Tick a peek inside the American Patriots Almanac here July eighteenth. As dusk fell on the evening of July eighteenth, eighteen sixty three, about six hundred men of the fifty fourth Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry assembled on a beach near Charleston, South
Carolina. At the shout forward fifty fourth, they began to move across a narrow spit of sand toward Fort Wagner, a massive sand and wood Confederate stronghold with walls that rose thirty feet high. As they neared the fort, a stream of cannonballs and bullets tore into the blue coated line. The fifty fourth Massachusetts was a Northern Black regiment organized shortly after Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation.
Its ranks were full of young men who volunt to fight because they knew that blacks helped win the Civil War. No one could ever think of them as slaves again. Twenty three year old Sergeant William Carney helped lead the assault on Fort Wagner. At his side ran Sergeant John Wall, carrying the American flag. When enemy fire struck Wall down, Carney threw his rifle aside, grasped the colors before they hit the ground. As he pressed forward, a
bullet hit him in the thigh. He fell to his knees, but managed to get up and struggle on to a parapet, where he planted the flag. There he knelt bearing the colors as the battle raged around him. When the overwhelmed Union troops fell back, Carney struggled back down the earthworks, determined not to let the flag fall into enemy hands. He was shot twice more as he staggered across the sand to his own lines, still clutching the stars
and stripes. Boys. The old flag never touched the ground, he exclaimed as he collapsed. The fifty fourth Massachusetts lost nearly half of its men during the assault, but it's courage one respect for black soldiers in the North. William Carney recovered from his wounds for his bravery protecting the flag. That night, he received the Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military award. That story is chronicled in the movie Glory with Matthew Broderick, Denzel Washington, Morgan
Freeman. It's a it's an incredible movie. But I will tell you that looking across from Fort Sumter Charleston Bay to where Battery Wagner was, and seeing that with my own eyes after knowing this story, it it It caused a pretty emotional reaction from me. It's it's it's remarkable. If I'm not mistaken, that area is protected, it is, it is set aside. I don't don't think there's any memorial there. There's no remnants of the fort left. But I don't believe that you can go on to that part of where
Battery Wagner was at all it's a sacred site, to be sure. Eighteen fifty three. On this date, trains began running between Maine and Quebec over North America's first international railroad route. Nineteen eighteen, some eighty five thousand US troops join a successful Allied counter attack in the Second Battle of Marn turning point in World War One. Intel Corporation in nineteen sixty eight is incorporated. I
just hear the little sound, don't you the little anyway? Nineteen eighty six, researchers at Woodhole Oceanographic Institute released deep sea videos of the remains of the Titanic. Happened in nineteen eighty six. I remember that. And it was on this day in twenty fourteen that FSU law Professor Dan Markel was shot and killed five minutes from where we're sitting broadcasting from. And we still have members of that plot to have him assassinated. Killed in a family divorce squabble,
no doubt, a murder for higher plot. His former brother in law serving prison, now the shooter serving time, his associate serving time. We're now waiting for his former mother in law to face trail this fall trial this fall. Sixteen minutes after the hour, I'm going to revisit some resolutions next wfla fam dot com, on your phone with the iHeartRadio app, and on hundreds of devices like Alexa, Google Home, Xbox, and Sono Santiheart's radio station
forty two minutes past. I find it far better for my self esteem to have no goals or targets, because that way I can just inadvertently say I met my goals when I do anything. It just works better that way. I'm just kidding. I will say it is abundantly clear that a lot of people make New Year's resolutions, and right about now you're starting to rethink that whole process again because you're halfway through the year and you're looking back and you're
wondering what happened. And so I came across this article lead research assistant of the program, send it to my attention, and it chronicles what to do if you're reevaluating your resolutions, and there are four specific areas to consider as you're looking through your goals, ask yourself why, for example, a lot of people start the year saying, you know, I should lose fifteen pounds, I should lose twenty pounds, I should lose and then they start feeling
really crappy about themselves because they didn't do what they knew they should do. So experts are saying, what you need to do is you need to say why, Why do you need to lose fifteen to twenty pounds or whatever the case might be. That's your driving motivation. Your motivation is not should. Should causes all kinds of problems because when you fail, you're suddenly dealing with
all kinds of condemnation from yourself. Why is a little bit better motivator because it reminds you of, well, there's a purpose to this second area. Are your goals realistic? You know? One of the things that I learned when I was losing some weight, and I've got more weight to lose, but I lost about thirty pounds and I've kept twenty five of it off. One of the things I learned, real real early in that process was it's okay to eat pizza, It's okay to have a cookie, it's okay to
have a soft drink. But what you don't do is you don't say to yourself, I'm gonna stop eating all of the things that I love and I'm going to eat like a rabbit because you're gonna get angry and I'm just talking about food, all kinds of goals. I'm going to go to the gym four days a week, Well, what if four days a week doesn't really fit your life schedule right now? Is it okay to go twice? Is
it okay? Instead of saying I'm going to do a five k? Is it okay to start by just walking around the block a couple of times and then jogging maybe once a week. It's all about the determining goals that are realistic. How about a pound a week, a pound every two weeks, a pound every two weeks. Man, you're basically looking at losing twenty five pounds in a year. Third, learn how to let go frozen goals cause depression. You have all these goals and you don't hit them, and all
of a sudden, you're sitting there really kicking yourself in the behind. If a goal's not working, dump it, reassess, find a new goal. Maybe drop that goal and reinstitute it in a different form with the wisdom, the things that you've learned, the reality, all of those previous steps. You add those up, and all of a sudden you thaw those goals out and you reset them. But those goals that are just sitting there, they're
almost like they taunt you. You have this goal that you're going to do this, that or the other, and they're like out there going, eh, you loser. You couldn't do any of these things, and so you got to let them go and then finally build a toolkit determine how you're going to accomplish your goals. And the toolkit can be so many different things. It can be actual props, things that you need to accomplish your goal.
It can be maybe somebody who really motivates you. Maybe you have an accountability partner, somebody that can kind of hold you accountable to your stated goals, whatever they might be. So here we are, middle of the year. It's not a failure, it's okay. That means all right, just step back now and use the wisdom that you've garnered, don't ignore, just push on, reevaluate, reset, and see what happens to the balance of the year. Twenty seven minutes after the hour, Big Boy Pants Time, Big
Stories in the press box. Next one hundred and point SEVENBUFLA, All right, I'm not going to promise to understand all of the nuances of this at all. This Morning Show with Preston Scott, Big Stories in the press box. But it's it's something called a put option. I had to look it
up. Here's what Investipedia describes a put option a contract giving the option buyer the right, but not the obligation, to sell or sell short, a specified amount of an underlying security at a predetermined price within a specified time. Twenty four hours ahead of the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, a company being identified all over the place as Austin Private Wealth LLC shorted twelve million shares of
Donald Trump's media company that he owned sixty percent of the stake in. I had someone send this to me. I had someone else send me the following, and this is connected to sources inside the federal government. I'll just read a portion of this. Colleague works for the Security Exchange Commission. It seems a company shorted twelve million shares of DJT, which is the stock media company, bya put option, betting on the stock to drop. The filing date
was Friday July twelfth, the day before the assassination attempt. They have a round one billion in assets under management. This is by far the largest put transaction this firm has ever placed, given the fact that Trump owned sixty percent of the company. Coincidence, not saying, just saying. They are just
a lot of little things that are adding up to being beyond weird. The parents of the shooter notified police hours in advance, according to historian Fox News, They eventually called law enforcement indicate that he was missing and they were worried. Earlier reports revealed that the shooter were scheduled to work on Saturday, but told his boss that he needed the day off because he had something to do.
Told the boss he'd be back to work on Sunday. His most recent job was as a dietary aid at a nursing and rehab center in the area. The Department of Homeland Security is blocking the Secret Service director from testifying to a congressional committee that is looking into all of this. Republicans have called on Kim Cheadle to testify on Monday, the twenty second. That's this coming Monday. According to House Speaker Mike Johnson, Alejandro Mayorcis, the head of DHS,
is attempting to block Cheatle from testifying. There are there are so many problems with everything that we're now learning, was this kid actually recruited? It's hard for me to believe that. Then there's another side of me that's like, okay, he's kind of the perfect recruit if he could shoot. Now, let's remember that if Trump does not turn his head, he's shot right behind that the right right on top of the ear, right behind the ear. I mean, it's probably a fatal shot with a five five six.
It was an easy shot. I mean you look at the the access that he had, clearly, and it's and it's sad the officer that that went up on the back of another officer, sheriff's deputy, officer, don't know which. I'm hearing that it was an officer. Local police had traffic detailed, that's it. That was their sole responsibility. Him reaching up rushed the
shooter. The shooters knew he had been seeing. The officer was reaching for his firearm when he fell off the back of the other officer getting out of the line way of the of the rifle that was being pointed at him. But was this kid just given access? I mean, there were ladders there. It's just just just some things here that are not adding up. Forty one minutes after the hour, More Big Stories next on news radio one point
seven Double USLA. There are people explaining away the put option could be, as I just posted on one guy who is trying to explain it away. In the macro, yeah, it's a standard practice, but in the micro
it's dubious, it's questionable. You just start to add everything up and it just looks more and more that at the very least, there's gross incompetence here and a perfect storm that you could almost not make up, a series of coincidences that just lined up to this loaner kid and to the question that I you know, I said at the very beginning of all of this, it's hard for me to buy that this twenty year old is the selected shooter. But if I were to look at it from the standpoint of let's say you're
plotting, Let's say you're the CIA. Let's say that you you your guy Biden is not going to win, he's failing. And we'll get to Biden here in a second. If you want to go this route, and you're planning something and you just happen to know of a kid that's not a Trump fan, he's a loaner. He's an outsider, he can handle a gun a little bit. You give him a shot that is almost a guaranteed shot. You say, son, you're probably not going to get out of this,
but you'll be remembered forever. And you have a I used the term early on, a useful idiot. You have the perfect plausible deniability. Yeah, this isn't a professional. Come on, there's no there's no coordination here. Look at this kid. Come on, I mean it's the it's the perfect plausible deniable accessory to a crime. You don't tell the local swat team because they dispatched him the second they saw him, and I think Charlie pointing
out that they likely did not see him until the shots were fired. The call never got to him, and if it had, and if they're looking at at at an area, everything's explained if you listen to the podcast on the Conversations podcast with Charlie Yesterday, who is a former sniper and swat team leader and trainer. He explains how this likely went down from the sniper's perspective, the good guy's perspective, and I think given the amount of training Charlie's
done and his understanding of critical stress and all of these different factors. I think he's onto something here. I suggest listening to that entire interview. But this was an act of desperation. It would seem to keep Trump from taking office. It just seems that way. Am I wrong? And I mean I really hope I am. And I'm not definitively saying this is where I'm at, but this is where I'm going because there's well, let me put
it in the words of someone with background with Federal Bureau of Investigation. Too many coincidences, too many, too many failures, too many mistakes made in the advanced team with the Secret Service, too many poor decisions made, and now the stock It's just I don't like this feeling in a real crude way. It's kind of like when I got crapped on by a bird. I just feel like I need to take a shower, like right now. Forty seven minutes after talk a little bit about Joe. Next here in the Morning
Show, sen say of sense of communicator of common sense amplified. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott. If you want to send a little welcome note to Jose, it is Jose. Can you see c a u s at iHeartRadio dot com. Jose, can you see c an u s at iHeartRadio dot com. If you are a subscriber to a print newspaper other than a paper like Tallahassee Reports, which is a every other week, twice a month type paper, it's designed to do in depth reporting and present stories to you
in that format. But the big legacy print newspapers, many of them are going to remote printing and off site printing and early deadlines. Do you realize how many newspapers had nothing in their Sunday paper about the assassination attempt of Trump? Nothing? Nothing. There are major newspapers across this country that have print deadlines for Sunday on Friday. That's incredible. Usually the print deadline is the wee hours of Sunday morning for Sunday's paper back in the day, because you'd
get the scores and the results of all the sporting events on Saturday. I just thought that was an interesting irony of where we are with the print journalism world these days. I mentioned Joe Biden, Joe is suddenly opening the door to leaving the race. He said he would drop out quote if I had some medical condition that emerged. If somebody, if doctors came to me and said, you've got this problem and that problem. Huh lo, and behold,
he's being pulled off the campaign trail because of COVID. The guy who has had more shots than Pete Merrivitch in a basketball game suddenly has COVID. Isn't that interesting? And Yet, as was pointed out to me this morning, was seen after diagnosis, surrounded by people not wearing a mask, no one near him wearing a mask, heading out a dodge, leaving town, going back to that basement he campaigned from four years ago. Isn't that interesting
timing Joe suddenly has COVID? Uh uh uh. I heard a lot of the pundits yesterday saying that, and pundits that are right leaning conservatives saying no, no, no, no no. Jade Vance should not debate Kamala Harris until we know whether she's going to be on the top of the ticket. Oh no, no, no, wrong, wrong analysis. Trust me on this, You absolutely debate right now because she will be exposed and people will be watching because she could be on the top of the ticket, and she
will get absolutely hammered and owned by j D. Vance. He is a outstanding debater, So I think they're wrong. I hope they go ahead where it is. They might pull back and not. I think that's a mistake. Steve Stewart on deck second hour Away to the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Into the second hour of the Morning Show with Preston Scott Show fifty one ninety eight. Jose can you see over there in Studio one A along with Jared who is observing today. I'm Preston Scott. Welcome to the radio program.
I'm here in Studio one B, and I am joined by the executive editor of Tellaski Reports, the one the Only, Steve Stewart. Hell sir, good morning, how are you. I'm good. So you write a little story. How ironic that you write a story about firefighters and a fire breaks out in the pages gradually, speaking of Tellaski Reports, there's so many examples here. This is what you call journalism. Advancing a story. Yeah, I wonder if they even teach that in journalism school these days. Advancing
a story. You know it's gonna stay quiet. Yeah, So you know when somebody says, you know, we want to pay firefighters sixty thousand dollars starting salary, which is twenty percent more than what they make now, which is good. Everybody wants to make more money. But you know, you've got the political realities here of money. You would think the follow up question would be, well, you know, how do you how do you plan
to pay for this scat? Let's let's describe who the who are? Yeah, and so you've got the progressives Jack Porter and Jeremy Mattlow and dot Man Johnson running around using the firefighters. You know, this is a whole other story, using public safety as a political wedge, right, and so saying hey, look, you know the current majority, they don't really care for the firefighters, they don't like them, and we're going to we'd give them
sixty thousand dollars a year if you vote for us. And now who said that? Those three Jack Porter, dot Hman Johnson and Commissioner Mattlow are all on record of saying they should make the same as police officers. And we can debate that. But when you start looking at the actual campaign promise, it's it's ridiculous. And you would think that some enterprising reporter would say,
well wait a minute, let me go look at this. I'm told this is going to be an extra seven million dollars five to seven million dollars for the taxpayers. How are you going to pay for that? Question? Never happens. Weeks weeks we're into a campaign. So I post a story saying they have no plan, and like you said, everything breaks loose. Commissioner Mattlow gets on his Twitter machine and says, you know, we'll transfer money from the general fund. Dot Hman Johnson says, I want to do away
with a fire service, which just boggles my mind. And I want to pay firefighters to the general fund, which is property taxes. And Jack Porter, which is what she's been for the last year, is silent on any controversial issue because the media is protecting her. But back to the firefighters again, sixty thousand dollars starting salary. I was able to find out two days ago. You know what the actual they're negotiating a contract right now with the
city. Okay, City gave them a five percent raise after going through the magistrate looking at the impasse, and now they're negotiating a three year contract. You think negotiators are asking for sixty thousand dollars a year, they're not. They're asking for fifty one to fifty two thousand dollars a year as starting salaries
for a firefighter who works ten days on twenty days off. And I don't think hardly anyone will will disagree with the idea that firefighters, first responders should be paid more exactly ten days, twenty four hours, twenty days off. There's different there are different schedule than law enforcement, and that's why the salary is the way it is. But back to the point of these progressives using public safety as a political edge, and when you expose them, it's a
fake campaign promise. Even the firefighter negotiators know that it can't be sustained and they're not even asking for it, and so this is what you're dealing with. Unfortunately, again, this should have been asked a month and a half ago. We write this story, it gets out there. Now everybody sort of has pulled back, nobody wants to talk about it, and this is
the concern moving forward on these issues. Now. I want to point out that you did get responses to the story from dott Inman Johnson and Jeremy mattloll right, and if you read them, they make no sense. Okay, you're going to first of all, you're going to transfer money from the general fund, which is where you create property taxes, is where you know your property taxes go. Where you going to find the money. Oh well, we're going to make cuts on executive salaries. Wait a minute, I mean
you can't. We're talking five to seven million dollars. Again, this shows the fiscal irresponsibility of their campaign promises, and they're just they're just running to get powered. They have no idea what they're going to do when they get it, and this firefighter issue is one of the biggest examples. It's lowest, it's low hanging fruit. Oh yeah, they're taking public safety, which everybody likes, and they're telling the other saying there's a side that doesn't care
about them. All right, we're gonna pick up right there. Steve Stewart with me this morning. It's ten minutes past the hour. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott back with Steve Stewart of Tellassi Reports. The story, that you can find online at Tellassireports dot com, has spurred a lot of comments from some of the players, and candidate dott Van Johnson has weighed in. But you mentioned Steve the player and what they're saying just doesn't make any
fiscal sense. Explained. Well, first of all, as we talked about with Chmisioner Mattlow, the general fund, where we're just going to take money from the general fund and move it into the fire service fee, the fire
service fund. So is that what the county's going to do? Well, I know exactly because this is the fire service fee was started because fire services are provided around Leon County, not only in the city, and so they consolidated the It was very efficient, they consolidated the services, and then there's
a they moved it out of the property tax realm to a fee. Now you can argue on that, but the reason why they did it is because Leon County has so many a buildings, so many or so many nonprofits off the tax rolls, so state buildings FSU is not paying property tax for fire service that they're getting. So they moved it off to a fire service fee, which will allowed those entities to pay millions of FSU pays millions of dollars
for fire service, which is appropriate. Right. Well, when you have dot Hima Johnson say she wants to pay firefighters and for fire service out of the general fund. Well, you're defeating the whole purpose. Not only do you have to find the five to six million dollars for the raise that do you want to make up the gap for all the people that are paying that are tax example. Yeah, and so this just again it goes to show you the lack of thought put into this, and it's they're just saying things
to get elected. And the problem, and I've said this before, Look, if you want to vote for progressives, vote based on the policies that they're implementing. But what's happening is they're running from these policies. They can't now listen. I will give dot M and Johnson credit. She revealed her position, but her position is just it makes no sense. It makes no sense. Now, Commissioner Porter has remained completely quiet, and this has become
the this has become the issue revolving around her. The local media has no appetite for asking her a question, and I don't I don't know if they've asked her, and she's just you know, responded like hey, god am I fan And they don't want to report that. But this is a perfect example. You're making this campaign promise. You would think that WFSU. The talent's a Democrat. WCTV would say, hey, look, I understand, you know you want firefighters to make more money, but how are you going
to pay for this? But that requires an understanding of local media, how the process works, and they probably don't understand that nuance of nonprofits in state buildings not paying taxes. But Preston, all you got to do is when somebody makes a campaign promise that's almost like journalism one on one. I know, Okay, how are you going to pay for it? I know? But they want to be friends with these people. Well I think it goes
beyond that. I mean, I think I'm starting to see now in the waning weeks up to the August twentieth election, that it's not about being friends. It's about supporting their narrative. Okay. I mean when you have someone say, you know, evaluate law enforcement, and they say, well, listen, they're doing the best with the resources they have, that's commission reporter. Oh well they don't have the resources. Well why did you vote against
the contract? Why did you vote against incre increasing the number of officers? And those questions never come, and so this is we read about this a lot from a national perspective, the impact of the change in media and how it impacts government. You're seeing it right here in Tallahassee now. And look, we're fighting to get the facts out. And people will say, well, you know you're biased because you you know what you have a you have
a specific position or a mission. We do have a mission, but we asked, we asked, you know, those who voted for the tax increase, which we opposed editorially, we asked them to defend it. We ask them, look, why are you putting a pay raise on the ballot.
We asked the tough questions to everybody. What gets difficult is when you can't get people to answer questions, or you get you get these fake issues like this firefighter issue, where you have negotiators aren't even asking for what the progressives are pushing out there. Well, and it's and it's important I think for those of you listening to know that Commissioner Jack Porter was invited to say down with me for an uninterrupted visit. She chose to ignore that and not do
it. But Commissioner Jeremy Mattlow sure wants to talk, but I would not agree to visit with him until after the election because he's not on the ballot and he would strictly be acting as a campaigner. No, and it's the same they won't talk to me. Commissioner Matlow wants to talk, but I said, no, listen, you know you've got to pack. You know you're not running for office. You obviously, you know, have a vested interest in what's going on here. The candidates need to talk. Well,
he's the defact I like you. I credit dot Man Johnson. She came on and we did have a long visit, but he is become the de facto spokesperson officially on any media requests for Jack Porter. I agree, all right, we're going to move on to some other things. Sixteen past the Hour, My Hearts Radio Season twenty one past the Hour, final segment with Steve Stewart of Tell, Ask, Report, Subscribe. At that Papertel Assupports dot Com saw the intel on airport traffic gets up. Yeah, it's real
quick. Personal privilege here. You do have a listener this morning in Fort Lauderdale for at least one, and that's my wife who is down there with my daughter for beach volleyball. So I wanted to say hi to them. Hi, thank you, okay airport, Yeah amazing. I mean, if you look at the chart, you know again I've it's last month they were up twenty percent month over a month. This month it's up ten percent there and that's not really even including the new airline carrier, what is it,
Silver Airways No Jet Blue was the new one that started to January. Yeah, yeah, but it does include that traffic. But because they've added traffic and that actually is one of the major reasons why the traffic has increased, and it's it's just very interesting to see this now. It's when we did this story, which we uh we do it every month, only local outlet that does that to keep an eye on what's going on. You know,
there's natural reports about how business travel has picked back up. Evidently leisure travel recovered pretty quickly after the COVID people were desperate to get out exactly, but business travel because of working from home and zoom calls. It's sort of but evidently it is back with a vengeance, and so that explains some of this. But it's I mean, the airport is going to be I think they're obviously the million the annual rate of a million passengers is where they're headed.
They're at nine to twenty nine and twenty thousand over the last twelve months. And we went through this period up till January of this year where it was pretty flat. We reached up to a level and you say, oh, here we go, it's just going to be. But now that it is really turned and is headed up, so that is that's good news because they
put a lot of time into trying to improve the airport. The road that's going to and around the airport, that is a main the only main thoroughfare, the only way there is that blueprint money some of it, you know, actually the gateway which will be leaving it will be I'm not sure that that is. That's more federal money. Airports are heavily subsidized by federal money, federal grants, and so now during the summer months they have taken this
opportunity to sort of expand some of the transportation infrastructure there. Because I talked to the director out there, I mean, parking has become an issue because when you get more travelers, obviously you start to see things that are our problem. You haven't had to deal with that issue in the past, so those are again comes at a good time. The airport gateway which is going to go from the couple of gateways which are going to go from the airport
through Innovation Park. I mean having traffic up like this gives a rationale for that and why it was viewed as a good idea by most people. So only a matter of time before we get a real food court and a shopping center inside the mall. Yeah, what else is going on on that? So another thing was a little more concerning, although again following national trends, is single family only residential permits construction permits. Those are always leading indicators.
And we know that the real estate market is going through some chaotic moves right now in terms of supply and demand. You starting to see prices come down for resales and the permits for new construction in Leon County, they tend to go in like twelve to eighteen month trends, and we it looks like we're the end of a twelve month increase, and we've got a chart that shows beginning in January it started heading back down. Okay, so this month in
June thirty two single family residential permits were pulled. That's the lowest in over twelve months, and so what does that mean? Probably softer demand possibly for new homes. You know, Also what that will you know, there's fewer people, there's fewer people selling, which means there's lower supply. Looking at a possible rate cut in September from a national perspective, how does this all wash out? We have to wait and see, but it's definitely things are
changing. Is do we know what the local market in terms of resales looks like? Yeah? You know, interesting people complain about, you know, first time buyers getting into the market. It can complain about high prices. But if you take tallasse Leon County and compare it to Florida as a whole, I mean you say, there's I think there's twenty one msas metropolitan statistical areas, our media and sale price is like nineteen twenty eighteen nineteen. I
mean it's it's at the bottom, you know. And that's one of the reasons why we see some growth in this area is because when people are looking to leave California and New York, you know, they search those MSA well they look at Florida and they say, look, South Florida is just you can't even afford to live down there, so then you know, you start moving north and north Florida. You know, it's discovered a long time ago, but even more people are looking at it because of the real estate prices.
And that, interestingly enough, connects right back to where we started and what's going to happen here locally big time, because I mean, you've got to deal with this growth in a responsible way. And yeah, that's a whole other topic. Yeah. All I'm gonna say to you listeners is that if you get out and vote in August, it'll make a difference. Don't wait till November because you may not like what you find or don't find.
On a bat everybody can vote August twentieth. Republicans, Democrats, Independence, everybody. Yeah, and you need to twenty seven past there. Thank you, Thank you. Steve Stewart with Tallahassee Reports again Tallahassee Reports dot Com. Preston Scott on News Radio one hundred point seven WFLA, Oh my, the developments keep coming. Good morning, big stories in the press box here in the morning show with Preston Scott, and let me get to the to the
latest development. Apparently there was a second phone used by the shooter. And apparently he posted on a social media site, a gaming platform called Steam. Never heard of it. It's a popular platform where gamers purchase games and communicate. So I guess it's a it's a resource and a social media platform. It's like video games and people can like leave comments and reviews about the game and stuff like that. Well here's uh, here's what he posted days ahead
of the attempted assassination. Let me see here, hold on, bear it with me. He said he was going to have his debut on the thirteenth, his premiere, and and so, yeah, we continue to learn more and more and more, and it's troubling. Add it all up. We talked last hour about the fact that a investment company had a what's called a put option, which is a way of setting a price on a given stock
or security at a predetermined price within a predetermined time frame. Now, others have explained that, well, yeah, you know, the stock had had grown tremendously and they were getting out. That's standard practice. And I don't doubt that absolutely. In the macro, it makes perfect sense. When you go down to the micro, it's suspicious. Could it be absolute coincidence that they did this put twelve million shares into a put option the day before the
attempt at assassination. Sure, absolutely totally possible and plausible. It also could be that it wasn't so coincidental that someone knew something. I guess I've learned at this point. I don't trust our government at all. I trust individuals within the government some, but I don't trust our government. I have zero trust in the CIA, zero, almost as little trust in the FBI. There are incredible agents inside the FBI. They are absolutely trustworthy, and then
as you go up the chain, it gets sketchy. It's like our military leadership is sketchy. This is These are troubling times. The parents of the wood be assassin called police hours before the rally, saying they were worried about their son. I can't even imagine being the parent of that kid. Sources inside I'd connected to the federal government. The FBI are indicating at this point that you almost have to disregard. The FBI is saying that they just don't
have a clear motive. At this point, I don't know. I think it's a little early to make that declaration, and God help them if they try to shut this case, there's too much forty minutes past the hour diversion. Next on the Morning Show with Preston Scott WUFLA. You have something you want to share, feel free Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Again, that is Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Thankfully we can talk about something else for
a few minutes. Time for pause for thought where we talk about our four legged friends with doctor Steve Steverson of the Bradford gol Animal Hospital. Good morning, sir, how are you hey, Preston, I'm doing great. How are you? I'm doing well. We talked about this as the heat started
to hit early in the summer. But I've also seen the story Steve, of pet owners losing their pets Leon County here locally putting up signs now in the dog parks warning people about the signs of heat illness for their dogs. Let's go through the basics again. Yeah, sure, absolutely, Preston. We are unforcedate have seen too many cases of dog stuffering from heat, exhaust
and heat stroke this summer, with this heat wave that we've had. You know, it was a rule of thumb and here in Tyler hassee it's gets warm, so quickly every day if it gets up above about eighty two degrees. That's kind of a rule of thumb for you. Above eighty two degrees, you need to be very, very careful with any activity outside with your dog. They can get overheated extremely quickly. With the heat and commidity we have. That can be a disaster. You know, maybe outside for ten
maybe twenty minutes max. And then bring them back in, let them cool back down. They start hassling and panting excessively, you know, difficulty breathing, salivating, drooling excessively. Get them inside, get them cool down, and that's it for the day. Just like if we go outside and get overheated and we come in, we are wiped out for the day. The same thing with your dog. They can't be outside and you can't take them in, cool them down, and take them right back out, give him
a break. Let wait till the next day to do anything else outside. There are better times to take your dog out than others. Correct absolutely, preston early in the morning. I know a lot of people aren't mourning people. Sure, if you want to take your dog for a nice walk, do it early in the morning when that's the coolest. Point of the day, that's the best time to take them out. Like I said, once it gets up, then it's in the eighties, it's getting too warm.
Your pet can't handle that heat like you and I can. So early morning or late evening, you can go. Late in the evening is better than during the day, but certainly I would recommend early morning if you want to walk consistently. One of the things that we've also talked about is just the literal heat of the pavement when you're taking your dog for a walk, because even cement gets hot, but certainly asphalt mm hm oh exactly. You know
asphalt. You go down there, you go out on a sunny day and dark asphalt and put your hand down on that asphalt and you'll burn your hand and it'll do the same thing to the pads of your dog or cat's seat. And so you don't want to have them out there on that hot asphalt just for the burn chance. But also that does cause more heat that they absorb as far as heat exhaust and heat stroke can occur. So it be
very very careful walking on pavement of any sort. Doctor Steverson, we talk a lot about heat index, which combines the heat with the humidity and other factors. Do dogs get impacted by humidity as much as we do or is it strictly the temperature and the heat. Know this humidity plays a huge part present. If they have dry air, they can have that evaporative cooling in
their mouth, which is where they lose all their heat much easier. If it's really humid out, then dogs and cats can't bloff excess heat as efficiently. And so the humidity which we have here in Tallahassee is a great problem the for dogs and cats because they can't bloff that heat and that high humidity. That's where I think we've learned that it's important to pay attention even to if your dogs outside in your backyard, paying attention to shade and ways for
the dog to stay cool yep, yep. Cool water is important if it's really hot out, and you put ice cubes in the water to help them get some cooling water to help cool them down. Plenty of shade, plenty of moving air. A fan is very very helpful. You'll see if you go online, you can see you can buy these chill vests for your dog to help keep them cool when they're out, and that helps, but don't
think that's going to eliminate the problem. And allow your dog to be outside for hours and hours if they have a chill best on so they may help a little, but not a lot. All right, Doctor Steverson, thanks so much for the time. I appreciate it great, Thanks busting. Have a good day. Doctor Steve Steverson with the Bradfordville Animal Hospital. Forty six past the hour, one years and still growing. So tell a friend.
Both of them. Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Road trip idea, giving you suggestions in the waning weeks of your kids summer, even though summer's going to linger a lot longer. They throw those kids back to school after roughly two weeks in a two months and a week off. I can't get my brain around that Memorial Day to Labor Day. That's what we did when I was in school, and it worked great, having a good
three month summer. If we're gonna do it, if we're gonna not do full time school year round, which is my personal preference, six weeks and then a break, and six weeks and a break and six weeks and a break, and anyway, I think that you need to do it. You need to do it year around. But anyway, these are just a few suggestions. Last week I said, go to Santa Fe Colleges Teaching Zoo in Gainesville. Now we're going to double up because it's a stop my wife and
I make from time to time. If you listen to the program, you know that we. I enjoy butterflies. I love hummingbirds, but butterflies in particular, I just think they're incredible. I think they're just spectacular examples of God's handiwork. When you just look at the diversity and the and the the the detail on a butterfly is just incredible. There is a butterfly rainforest at
the Florida Museum, and you just need to go. Yes, it costs money to get in, but it's it's right next to the Florida Museum of Natural History. I maybe that's what it's called. It's it's incredible. The the two of them together are so good, and they're right there on the campus of the University of Florida. It's it's it's worth going, even though you might be confronted by a weird student, which happened to me the last
time I was there. I held the door for my wife to get in the vehicle, and made sure that the door didn't touch the vehicle next to us. Little did I know that there was a young lady sitting in that vehicle behind tinted windows, and she said, why did you brush up against my car? No, I'm not making this up. I said, I was keeping the door from hitting your car. You didn't have to brush up against my car. Okay, little girl, go away, bye bye.
Took a little bit of the fun out of the visit, but that's the only time I've ever been there that it was. It was weird, but I just chalked that up as a weird co ed so whatever it could have happen on any college campus. You'd get weirdos like that. But the museum and the Butterfly Rainforest is awesome. It really is. The two together absolutely worth a stop. So if you've never been there, look it up. Butterfly Rainforest connected to the Florida Museum of Natural History and the two of them
side by side right there. Easy, easy, easy, easy, and a decent trip for a day. I mean, it's just it's there in a back I have a family photo from a trip when I was a kid to that museum, which one the Natural Natural Museum. Yeah, yeah, I don't know if it's still there, but they used to have a giant stuffed alligator right as you walked in, and there's a picture of me riding
the alligator that my mother took a photo of. What they have now is they have a hologram of I want to say, a saber tooth tiger. And so it's in this space and you look up on the big screen and you can see it walking back and forth around you. It's pretty cool. I guess the technology has advanced quite a just a little bit since the stuffed alligator. Yeah, I think just a little bit. All right, next hour on the program, we're going to do something a little bit different.
I want to talk about the RNC and we're going to cut the first segment a little short because the second segment is going to be a little long because I want you to hear one speech from Let's make America Safe Again. I'm just gonna let you listen because most of you didn't hear it, and I think it's worth it. Also, next hour, we're going to talk a little bit about the officer that apparently that poor guy that pulled himself up and
was staring at the muzzle of the rifle of the shooter. He's apparently going through a really tough time because a lot of people are blaming him, and I want to talk about that, So stick around. How Aur threes next. This is why you listen to this program. Got developing news on one of the big stories in the press box. Thanks to research assistant of the program, we have seen a statement allegedly issued by Austin Wealth, Austin Private
Wealth LLC. We'll get to that. We'll reset that story at the bottom of the hour. We'll get to what they have released and why it matters in the grand scheme of the events of July thirteenth. But I want to just push away for a second and talk about the Republican National Convention for just a couple of minutes. I mentioned this is going to be a short segment because I want you to hear one speech from two nights ago, not last night. And I told you I'm not just going to throw speeches out there.
I want to throw speeches out there at you that you need to hear. There are a lot of speeches. It's not to say that JD. Vans didn't do a great job, because he did, but that speech isn't going to move people the way that the speech that I'm going to share with you is moving people. I'll get to that in a second. That speech is delivered within the broader spectrum of the Republican National Convention. And I have been I've been doing this show for a while now, and I have said
repeatedly that the Republicans are fully capable of losing a landslide election win. They can snatch defeed out of the jaws of victory better than any organization I've ever known in my life. Because they're terrible at messaging. I take zero credit because none of them listen to me. None, but maybe enough people have been hammering home the idea, get your messaging right because you're right on the
issues. If Republicans practice true conservatism, they will always be victorious because conservatism wins because the ideals of conservatism are anchored in faith, in biblical truths. Now they're secular ideals, political philosophies, but they're anchored so they don't move. And when they're practiced, they work. Ask any liberal who's a businessman that's successful. They're using conservative principles. I say that to say the RNC
is getting a lot right. This time. They're bringing in speaker on top of speaker, on top of speaker. They've diversified their speakers. They're telling, they're letting them tell their story, and it's making a difference. Van Jones, who talked about amber Rose being dangerous and a bunker buster for Democrats. Van Jones said last night, a bullet couldn't stop Donald Trump, COVID stop Joe Biden. He's right when we come back, one of those speeches
you need to hear. Next on the Morning Show with Preston Scott, all right, courtesy of Fox News. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Madeline Brain from New York. I'll let her tell her own story because her story is worth telling and worth hearing. Good evening, everyone, My son Sergeant Hassan, Korea and Afghanistan War retired veteran. He received enemy fire from the Taliban, only to be murdered with a knife on the streets of New York City.
The four assailants responsible for his death initially were facing justice, but that changed when District Attorney Alvin Bragg was elected. Suddenly, two of the homicidal maniacs responsible for my son's death had their gang assault and murder charges completely dismissed. One of them received fourteen months time served. Alvin Bragg charged her with assault with a shoe, and another one was sentenced to seven years. I
later learned that Alvin Bragg often dismisses and reduces dangerous criminals. He wants to clear the jails and return jop violet felons onto our streets. Every day. The injustice was devastating for me and my family. I don't want anyone else to experience the senseless pain that many other victims across the United States of America have to live with every day. So I decided to use the voice that
God gave me to be the voice for the voiceless across America. We need justice for victims, and we need accountability for prosecutors who fail in their duty. Soft on crime prosecutors like Alvin Bragg in New York, Kim Fox and Chicago, and George Gascone and Los Angeles have turned out of great country and cities into war zones. Poor and neglected communities like mine are suffering, and who else in here is sick? And tired of being sick and tired the
Democratic counting that poor minorities have been loyalty for decades, including myself. All right, they portrayed us, They stabbed us in the back. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, who claimed to represent us, have abandoned us. They neglected the poor minority communities across America. But mine eyes have been opened, just like just like so many other poor minorities across the American Donald Trump shares
our values, love of God and family and country. He's been a victim of the same corrupt system that I have been in my family has been. He is committed to providing economic opportunities, helping those suffering from addiction with long time and patient drug programs, rolling back deadly badly for our policies that are getting our children killed every single day, and supporting or police. We backed the n y p D, We backed the Blue, back the blue,
and hypn blacked the Blue. Trump was right when he said thereafter us, He's just standing in the way, and guess what he always will. That's
why I'm standing with him today. Let's make America safe again and reelect our Donald J. Dree sixteen minutes after the hour, Madeline Brain in the Morning Show with Preston Scott twenty two minutes past the hour, that speech by Madeline Brain about her son who was viciously murdered, survived Afghanistan, couldn't survive New York City, and the people responsele were basically let go, at least two of them. This is why minorities are leaving and fleeing the Democrat Party.
They're not safe. This is the party that owns the soft on crime. Let them go, turn them loose, don't even prosecute. Let me just look at the difference between the January sixth protesters in Clantifa, the campus protesters that are violent, that are burning things down, and oh, by the way, in the wake of what happened with Trump, I'm just going to dip into my commentary for a second. How many stories have you seen about the evils of an Ar fifteen? Have you seen one? Has there been
one prayer vigil calling for an end to long guns? Has there been one member of the Congress Democrat of course, holding a press conference demanding gun legislation now to take long guns out of the hands. No, not one, not one. Isn't it interesting? No, isn't it sickening? You know, you can talk all day long, Well you got to lower the rhetoric. Well, yeah, that's fine, but you also have to call things what they are. You have to speak to the things that are as they
are. And you darn well know that if that target had been a Democrat candidate for president, if that target had been Joe Biden, we would be hearing ad nauseum endless stories. See another long gun, another ar which they stupidly call an assault rifle, another assault rifle. But yet there's not a dog on things said written, No nothing. Here's the conclusion. I'll go
ahead and say it out loud. Deep down, most of the mainstream media who hates us and hates Trump, and most of the Democrats who feel the same, they're kind of sad. The guy missed. Truth hurts The truth hurts you, even those of you that aren't regular listeners. You tune in now and then you're kind of on the other side of most issues from me. You know I'm right, you know it. And what does that say about the Democrats calling for gun control? Gun control is what we're going to
talk about, unless it's the right person getting shot. See, I have no issue with long guns. None, zip zero none. This has nothing to do with the gun. It has everything to do with the idiot who is holding it. It has everything to do with those who may have allowed this plan to go with being checked and stopped. But the issue of and look, I've kind of goaded a reporter that I know, because there are some good reporters. Why aren't you reporting on this, on the fact that
the left is silent on the use of a long gun? Here? Come on, now, why do I seem to be the only one talking about Look, I'm no deep thinker, though I think as deeply as I can. I'm no sage, but I would seem to be the only one talking about this pointing it out. Just something to think about. Twenty seven past the hour. Big update on a story coming up Nextcaides of doing morning drive radio, oh differently, doing it his way like old Blue Eyes, except
he has a little more hair. The Morning Show with Preston Scott British Open Underway Troon is where it's being played. I want to say it's in Scotland, but I can't be certain of that. But justin Thomas with the early lead from America. Big stories in the press box this morning, I said an update here. One of the big stories we've talked about is the coincidence that a investment company called Austin Private Wealth had a put option on DJT,
which is Donald Trump Technologies and the report the filing. The filing was twelve million shares, and that filing in essence gives them the option of selling at a set price within a certain period of time, selling short. But it's called a put option. I'm no expert on this stuff. I had to
look up the definition of a put option. Investipedia defines it as a contract giving the option buyer the right, but not the obligation, to sell or sell short a specified amount of an underlying security at a predetermined price within a specified timeframe. The question being raised is twelve million shares the day before the assassination attempt. What are the odds? Now? Because I have research assistance
all over, there is a statement now been released from Austin Wealth. No client of APW holds or has ever held a put on DJT in the quantity initially reported. The correct holding amount was twelve contracts or twelve hundred shares, not twelve million shares as was filed in error in submitting the required report for the second quarter of the twenty twenty four a multiplier was applied by a third party vendor that increased the number of shares by multiple of ten thousand for all
option contracts, not just JDT. We did not catch the error before approving the filing. We deeply regret the error. They filing an amended filing on July sixteenth. We deeply regret this error and the concern it has caused, especially at such a fraught moment for our nation. Okay, I'm all we can do is take them at their word. If that multiplier was applied to a lot of other trades and actions on that same day, fair enough.
We closed the book on that one. Appreciate getting the information. But now we have a correction. That was an accurate story. We've got a correction. We'll see. Parents of the would be Trump assassin called police hours before, and in fact police knew to be on the lookout for this kid. They were concerned about their son. Their son, it has since been determined, had another phone and posted on a gaming site called stream quote. July
thirteenth will be my premiere watch as it unfolds. I'm have more to say about this tomorrow on the program. You've heard me a little fired up today, Yeah, I'm gonna have a little more about this now. Allegedly kim Cheatle has agreed that she will testify. May Orcus has tried to block it. I don't know if she's doing it in defiance of Alejandro mayorchis the Department of Homeland Security, who is her boss. But she's allegedly going to testify.
She's going to answer the subpoena and answer questions before at least the Senate. I don't know if she's going before the House. We come back. I want to talk about that police officer, the one that got on the edge of the roof WUFLA. So we know at this point, based on a statement made by a commissioner with Butler Township, Edward Natali, appeared on bright Bart News Daily that seven local police officers were there for traffic control only.
That was their role, traffic control, quoting when you look at secret Service, Pennsylvania State Police, Butler County Sheriff's Office, Butler Township police only responsibility was traffic detail. I'm not going to comment on any other entity that was there. But I want to set the record straight. He's doing this because a lot of people are placing blame on local officers. He said, I want to tell you about my officer. He was not climbing a ladder.
He was not in a position to engage the suspect at all. He was there hoisted up on another officer. He grabbed the edge of the roof, pulled himself up and was quote, he was peeking his head up to see where the suspect is. The suspect turns his rifle and points it at the head of my officer. Obviously he's not in a position to engage him
by any means. He did not retreat. It's not that he didn't want to engage, quoting now as he let go of the roof to try to grab his gun, but he fell backwards and was injured in the process. He let go of the roof to try to get his gun, and of course fell backwards. He's actually getting injured in the process, expressing the belief that the officer and counting the suspect, likely forced him to shoot and maybe
hurried up the rate. That's something we mentioned him up I'm looking at it that we unfortunately lost people, but he saved the president's life by forcing him to hurry up and not having his shots made as accurate as he could have. It's still being investigated. I'm going to say that that building was discussed earlier in the week. That was confirmed to me. I wasn't directly in the loop of the preparations, but I can tell you my team had a
good operational plan for that day, but it was all traffic control. And then he started talking about the mental abuse and the attacks that this officer's taking and the weight the burden that he's carrying. And I just again, I don't blame this officer for anything at all. He tried to verify that there was a suspect with a gun. He did, and he almost got shot
in the head for it. The problem in all of the pre planning and everything else that went on around the events that that that took place that day. But it's a dog on shame. We're gonna skip that that thing that we're gonna just skip that. It's a shame that we have this is this is a separate set of victims. Now, was was there someone that was supposed to be on there. Well, apparently it wasn't. Local police, Charlie described, there's a breakdown, there's a delineation of duties and details.
You know, the Sheriff's department might have been responsible for this, State police, responsible for this, local police, responsible for this, Secret Service, responsible for this. Everybody had their job to do, but somebody didn't do their job or wasn't assigned to do their job. We don't know all of
that yet. I think the only way we're going to know is to get the head of the sheriff, the state police, the chief of police, and Secret Service, and then the advance agents that did that site plan and site survey and an advanced plan. We need them all sitting together in the room under oath in front of Congress. Actually, Trey Goudy made a point last night on Fox that I thought was interesting. And Trey Goudy, of course, former member of Congress and a heck of a prosecutor in his day.
Trey Goudi said what you need, He said, what you really need right now is you need an outside law firm with expertise with former federal agents, prosecutors and so forth that know how to interrogate he said, because, let me tell you, if someone who's been in Congress, very few people know how to question. He said. We need we need to we need to set this. We need to bring an outside group in to investigate this
interesting thought. Forty six minutes after the hour, lighting things up as we end the show next Now, from time to time we talk about the big lottery games, big lottery prizes. I'm not a big lot o person. Every now and then I'll buy a few tickets as gifts, and every now and then I'll play, but it doesn't happen very often. But this story of LaToya Burke, Chesapeake, Virginia caught my eye. It's just kind of an interesting story. They play a game there every day and night, every
day and night called Pick five. And the way it works is your job is to pick numbers zero through nine in the exact order in which they're drawn, and you can do it for fifty cents or you can do it for a dollar. And then there's a multiplier if you go for a sixth number, which is called the fireball. But if you do the five numbers in a row and again the numbers are just zero through nine, you win a nice price. You know, thirty thousand, fifty thousand dollars, whatever it
might be. Well, she did what's called the fifty to fifty game inside of it, and she picked the numbers five five, five, five zero, four fives in a zero in that order, and she bought six tickets with those numbers, and those were the numbers. So she won six thirty thousand dollars prizes and won one hundred and eighty grand for her. That's just awesome. I mean again, you know, your odds in this game actually are one in one hundred thousand, so they're relatively good comparatively to the big
lotto games. I myself, I'm not sure I would be ever interested in winning hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars, but you could probably set me up pretty good with a twenty to fifty million prize, maybe even a six million dollar I mean, you know, just something'll even a two or three million, I'd be fine with that. But we'll we'll eventually have conversations around here. Why what would you do with because I think those are just fun
conversation staff Brought to you by Barono Heating and Air. It's the Morning Show one eight on wfla Verse Today Luke six thirty eight, that's where we started the radio program. Talked with Steve Stewart of Tallashi Reports. Talked about the absurdity of campaign season. Great stories at tallassireports dot com you can check those out. Spend some time with doctor Steve Steverson reminding you if you have a dog, dogs are literally dying because owners are not paying attention to the heat.
And oh, by the way, in case you didn't know, if if you're walking outside, take your shoes off and just feel the pavement with your own feet. If it's hot to you, it's hot to your dog. You see those paths and you think, oh, they're just they're dogs, they're animals, they're tough. Oh no, you're burning their pads, you're burning their feet. Don't make them walk in the middle of the day and the heat of the day early in the morning, late late late afternoon,
early evening. But know the signs of heat frustration. Make sure their water's cool. If you have water outside and they're an outside dog, keep the water in the shade and repeatedly put ice in there to help them cool
down. They don't perspire. That's the way dogs are we talked about a interesting story involving an investment company and stocks of d JT, Yes, Donald J. Trump Technologies, and we've gotten now corrected filings from the company, and so we're going to, at least from my perspective, we're going to
write that story as okay, weird coincidence, mistake done. But what we aren't writing off is the comments made by the shooter online, which I'll talk more about tomorrow, or the massive errors and breaches in protocol that took place. On the thirteen, shared a speech from someone at the RNC complemented the RNC on running a good convention so far. What a shocking development tomorrow, what's the beef and more. Have a great day, friends,
