0:00

Or wherever else hunting Easter eggs, tam dinners, whatever else you got going

0:05

on, Easter egg hunks, whatever else. And by the way, don't

0:11

go cheap with the hollow Easter bunnies. Go for the solid chocolate bunny,

0:16

you know what I mean. I just want to clarify that as a kid,

0:19

I still flash back to those very disappointed you know, you get one

0:24

in the Easter basket and the ears broken off. It's hollow, it's it

0:29

easily melts. You're disappointed. I like a solid one, so you can

0:32

bust off in the ear, break off the head, and gnaw a way

0:36

at the chocolate. Dark chocolate would be good. But as a kid,

0:38

you don't like the dark chocolate so much. Maybe you're more of like a

0:41

milk chocolate kind of thing or whatever. And I also don't understand, not

0:45

that I ask. With the stone shields off the air, He's like,

0:47

man, I like those cadberry eggs, and I'm like, I don't understand.

0:52

I don't. There's gooey stuff inside and it makes me nervous. And

0:56

a friend of mine's like, no, I like it. Easter you get

0:58

the cadberry eggs and bacon or sausage. I'm like, that's not a real meal. They're like, oh yeah, it is on Easter time at my

1:03

house, and I'm like okay, so that that is happening for a lot

1:07

of people. Kevin Carr going to join us later by the way, Fat

1:11

Guys at the movies one last time officially in that capacity, although I have

1:15

a feeling he'll be visiting maybe regularly still in some fashion over time as well.

1:21

Also Dave had Or, our cyber security expert. I like to call

1:23

him a guru. Others like to say is a tenfoil hat wear and freak,

1:27

which really is kind of where I'm at in some fashion. We'll talk

1:33

on well, protecting yourself, your vital information, stuff you should not post

1:38

online. And also a story, well, a pretty disturbing one. It

1:42

seems like every couple of days there are disturbing stories about personal information and technology

1:48

and some type of cyber mishap, either where it's a malicious intent where they're

1:53

going after your information or mine or someone else's to steal identities or steal money,

1:59

or it's usually down to the money thing or something along those lines.

2:02

So we'll talk to Dave Hatter about that coming up after ten o'clock, so

2:07

lots of a ground to get to to start. I thought it'd be pretty

2:10

interesting here because I've had this conversation no less than three times, and I

2:15

will not count the short brief conversation with Stone Shilds. If you've like four

2:19

or five times now with some friends talking about stuff. When you get to

2:23

a point in your life where you're grown, you're an adult, you've had

2:27

some experience, you've lived a little bit, and you know what you're like,

2:30

enough is enough. I'm tired of the crap. I'm no longer going

2:34

to deal with this anymore. I'm over it. What I'm curious is what

2:39

do you fill the blank with there? I don't care if you're twenty five,

2:44

twenty four, twenty one, thirty, forty fifty, whatever it is.

2:49

I'm curious one thing that as you've come of age in your life,

2:53

maybe right here, right now, where you are, maybe you should talk

2:57

to your kids, your significant other, wife, your husband, boyfriend,

3:00

girlfriend, whatever you got going on, and you're sitting and you're thinking,

3:05

hmm, if I got to deal with this one more time, I'm not

3:08

dealing with it anymore. It's not my problem. I'm stone Shields Off the

3:14

Ears isn't drama, and he's in his early twenties, like, I'm done with drama. I wish I had learned earlier in life to be where Stone

3:21

Shields is to say I'm done with the drama. But for a while I

3:24

was drawn to it. I was well, I was drawn to women who

3:30

were seemingly fixated on the drama or brought the drama. And then sometimes you're

3:36

weak because you're like, Okay, I'll deal with it, and then you're like, this is exhausting. I don't want to deal with this anymore.

3:43

And that goes both ways. And if you don't know anybody who's in law

3:46

enforcement, anyone who's an emergency medicine in an emergency room someplace, anybody at

3:53

all who's working in the jail system, just about anyone else who deals with

3:59

kids and settings, they will tell you they have had enough of it,

4:02

and at some point in time, the drama, the ridiculousness, whatever it

4:08

is, they're tired of dealing with whatever it happens to be. They've experienced

4:13

it, they've observed it, and they tend to have to pick up the

4:15

pieces. As some would say of others, drama and mishaps and just trouble.

4:23

Generally that becomes tiresome and boring and problematic. Five one, three,

4:30

seven, four, nine, seven, eight hundred the Big one. You can talk back the iHeart media app. You can click on that, tap

4:36

that app if you will on the microphone, leave a message. I'm also

4:41

on Twitter formerly that are now known as X that Stirling Radio. I'm curious

4:46

about what those things are that you're tired dealing with, Like, this is

4:49

one of the things I clearly remember, like you'd want to, like you

4:54

have to go pick up like eight people, five people, six people in

4:58

high school, you know you might I had one person who drove, maybe

5:01

two in your circle of friends. And then you know that one person who

5:04

had the car sometimes it with me had to go swing by this place,

5:09

that place, the other to pick up everybody. And then at some point

5:13

in time all of us got cars. Some of us had jobs, we

5:15

had other obligations, responsibilities, wants and needs as people have, and it's

5:21

like, you know what, I'll meet you there, I'll pick you up

5:25

if I can. I don't need to necessarily go to six places. And

5:29

a buddy of mine whose kids are playing soccer, and I know he and

5:33

his wife, excuse me, spend a ton of time and it's kind of

5:38

cool. I mean, because they travel, they go to tournaments and everything

5:41

else, but they are constantly It's almost like they have a bus and not

5:45

a minivan and they are going everywhere and dealing with all of the pickups and

5:49

drop offs and everything else, which they're like, Hey, you're gonna check

5:53

us out. We have this tournament or whatever, and I'm like, I'll meet you there. They're like, no, you can ride along. I'm

5:57

like, I don't need to make fifteen stops. I just don't. I'm

6:00

over done with it. Nothing against it, picking up all the kids and

6:02

everything, but it's the long, drawn out, frustrating process, you know

6:08

what I'm saying. So I'm curious what those things are that you happen to

6:12

have that you're just sick. I'm tired of, you know. You know

6:15

what I'm very excited about and looking forward to is dealing with checking the standings

6:20

of the National Leagua Central and well across baseball. The Reds are back opening

6:27

day yesterday. Huge said it fantastic on the Big One. Huge crowds down

6:31

at the Banks ballparks sold out Red's Wind to start a Friday night off for

6:38

them for us hanging out here and then back at it tomorrow and then Sunday

6:42

of course, so wrapping up the weekend series with the Nationals at Great American

6:46

Ballpark games of course here on the Big One. Good to hear Tommy Thrall

6:49

and the Cowboy doing what they do and just a good time. All the

6:55

hotels, the restaurants, all the vendors, parking other than finding parking,

7:00

but people involved with the business of parking very happy for you know, a

7:04

whole lot of days, a whole lot of nights, a whole lot of

7:08

action down by the River with Reds Baseball back on the Big One, and

7:12

regular season is here, hopefully pushing towards another opportunity at postseason play. They

7:17

were literally in it with the wild card race last year, but last week

7:21

to two weeks of the season, which was nice. They seem to be

7:26

bigger and better, more improved and ready to get at it this season.

7:30

And at this point they're undefeated, So there is that. And a buddy

7:32

of mine's kid has texted me, are they're they're going to go? And

7:36

defeated Stirling. I'm like, I don't know, don't be let down.

7:41

Be nice, but no team has gone undefeated in one hundred and sixty two

7:45

as far as I know, unless I blacked out something. It seemed to me that would be something monumental. But we can hope. I mean,

7:51

all we need them to do is just have enough to get to the playoffs

7:56

and then we'll all be happy. Lots going on. Kevin Carr, Fat

10:41

that. So there's a lot of hoops action happening right about now. A

10:46

couple of responses on ex or Twitter, whatever you want to call it.

10:48

I was asking about talking about stuff that you're too old to deal with anymore.

10:52

You're grown, you're mature, You've lived life, you've experienced things,

10:56

and you know what time is precious. To frustrate the aggravation, the crap,

11:01

other people's drama, other people's messes, you don't want to deal with

11:05

it, you don't want to bother I totally get it. And here's the

11:09

one here. It says anything at all that I don't like and want to

11:13

do if I'm not having to do it for work. This is from Kevin,

11:16

not Kevin Carr, just another Kevin. I don't mean that in a derogatory ways, just another Kevin. I mean it's another Kevin, just as

11:22

Kevin. And then some random numbers. Whether he says but he has mentioned

11:26

movies, he says in a movie or otherwise he says, a party,

11:30

any type of thing non business related. If I don't want to deal with

11:33

that, I'm not dealing with it. Respect that. And he's forty six.

11:37

Here's somebody else says that they just turned fifty two, and basically,

11:43

any it has all the friends I need. This is great and it's anonymous.

11:48

I have all the friends I need, all the friends I'm ever gonna need. So I'm done making friends. That's a choice. I don't know

11:56

that, man, I don't know if I want to shut myself off from

12:00

that. I do have the same circle of close friends that I've effectively grown

12:03

up. But there's like six or seven of us guys or so, there

12:07

are five six that we've known each other longer than we've not known each other

12:13

at this point more you know, since we were kids, teenagers or before

12:16

in some cases to now. And you know there are peripheral friends beyond that.

12:22

But that's that circle that you know, since we were too young to

12:24

drive. You know, the one person, as I mentioned earlier, starts driving. Then you're picking everybody up and everything now married, some of us,

12:31

divorced, others kids, in some cases grandkids. It's the way it

12:35

goes. It's just one of those things that sort of goes along with that. Here's somebody else. This is from a lease, Elise, Elise,

12:41

I think is what it is. Forty four tired of doing anything I don't

12:46

want to do. Period. Okay, some stuff you're stuck doing that you

12:52

don't want to do. I mean whether sometimes it's worked, sometimes it's family

12:54

obligations. But yeah, I totally understand the concept of if I don't have

12:58

an obligation and I don't feel like doing it, then don't. That's a

13:01

that's a tough space to be in, but it's one of those that sometimes

13:05

you know, you have kids, you have family obligations and so on.

13:09

But if you're in a position where you can pull that off, good for

13:11

you. I think that's a pretty good scenario overall. So thanks for the

13:16

responses there. You can get interactive to five one, three, seven,

13:18

four, nine hundred the Big One and talk back on the iHeartRadio. I

13:22

click on that microphone, so there is that. Excuse me. I'm curious

13:30

about this, and I don't know how much of it is a driver of

13:33

topic and conversation, but this is the first time I've been on since the

13:37

bridge went down in Baltimore, and I have had a few conversations with people

13:46

about the vulnerability of infrastructure and so forth. And some of the questions presenters,

13:52

how can they have anything that's that vulnerable, well, I think a

13:54

whole lot of our society, whether it's overpasses and bridges for interstate traffic,

14:00

let alone over waterways, I think there's inherent vulnerability that goes along with it.

14:05

I don't think you can protect everything. And as technology is advanced and

14:07

stuff is constructed and replaced and so on, there are implementing new security features

14:13

and things that they have learned over time. Clearly they're going to take what

14:18

they say is up to a couple of years to investigate and see exactly what

14:22

all went wrong, whether it was those tug boats not being there to do

14:24

what they have to do, how that power was lost, and really I

14:28

think it's a miracle that more life was not lost in the midst of that.

14:33

Part of it I think obviously has to do with the time of day,

14:37

But I mean, what a horrible scenario. And then this, I don't how how credible this is or not. I've had I get my email

14:43

filled with tons of comments and sometimes it's it's sometimes provocative in a lot of

14:52

nonsense dealing with like political stuff. So I don't know how true and legit

14:58

this is. But I've had a number of people message me asking about the

15:05

fact that when they come to replace this bridge, whether it's federal dollars or

15:09

insurance moneys from this company with those cargo containers that wasn't able to control their

15:13

vessel which led to this bridge falling and this loss of life. Is they

15:18

try to get that built back up, that waterway clear because it's a major

15:22

economic issue, not just for Baltimore or even just the US, but internationally

15:28

speaking, it's one of the busiest in the country. The idea that this

15:33

has been message to me is that now people are saying they don't want to

15:37

have the new bridge name Francis scott Key anymore. That's somehow it's offensive or

15:45

inappropriate or whatever else. I don't know what the problem is with the Francis

15:50

scott Key in general, but I guess people can whine and cry and complain

15:58

all they want to. But I mean, when it comes time to building

16:00

it again, my guess is it will be the Francis scott Key Bridge too,

16:04

or something along those lines. I don't know why you'd have to change

16:07

the name. I mean, this is not the last I mean, I

16:11

could be wrong, but I mean this isn't about like slave ownership. This

16:15

isn't about anything like that. This isn't about like Confederate war stuff, you

16:18

know, Civil war stuff and Union Army stuff comparatively speaking, or anything else.

16:25

So I don't think sometimes people are just so concerned about political correctness and

16:32

ridiculousness unless I somehow have missed parts of the history here dealing with this.

16:37

I don't see what the need to rename the bridge would be other than the

16:41

fact that maybe the idea would be it's a new bridge and deserves a new

16:44

name. But I mean, there's a guy who was a lawyer, he

16:48

was an author, he's a poet. You know, he did the national

16:52

anthem, StarSpangled banners. We know it pretty big deal going back to what

16:57

eighteen twelve, and you know, British bombing Fort mcchemmery and all the other

17:03

stuff that goes along with that. I just don't see that as being something

17:07

as a problem. But I'm sure we'll hear more of it soon. If

17:10

I'm getting emails now people saying it, and I don't know if it's people

17:12

just want me to stir it up because they want to see how that goes,

17:15

or if it's actually legitimately people who are like, boohoo, we think

17:18

this should be changed to something else. We'll wait and see. We'll see

17:22

what kind of dirty laundry and skeletons they drag out to see how it goes

17:26

your nine thirty report straight ahead. Otherwise it's just it'll get it cleaned up.

17:30

Try to get those people made whole again if they can. Obviously the

17:33

loss of life can't be replaced, and you rebuild it and make it better,

17:38

probably bigger. I'm still overwhelmed that just the concept of how large these

17:44

vessels are in these container ships, and that is not as big as they

17:48

come, and exactly how difficult it is and vulnerable they may be in one

17:52

fashion or another that are out there, let alone infrastructure they may be going

17:56

under or near Aside from that, they could be damaged or worse destroyed.

18:00

News time now Kevin Carr joins. Then on the other side, it's a

18:03

Friday Sterling seven hundred WLW news. The weekend's here at Sterling, hanging out

18:11

Kevincarr, fat guys at the movies dot Com. The website still in existence

18:15

and will be, but you are exiting stage left from movie reviews in mass

18:21

for the public is that correct, Kevin Carr, welcome back. How are you? Thank you? Yeah, No, I'm doing good. It's not

18:26

a one hundred percent accurate. I mean, I'm not expiring. I would

18:30

hope that, God not. You're not going to get rid of me that

18:33

easily. I'm like a cockroach. I'll keep coming up even bigger, faster,

18:38

stronger after exposure. Yeah. Perfect, I'll be here past the the

18:44

nuclear holocaust and everything, or at least I'm no longer doing well. Yeah,

18:49

that's not very far away. No, I'm no longer doing uh,

18:53

the long form show. I do it our joy did an our radio show

19:00

every week which is on you know, one hundred and some markets around the

19:03

country, and you can find it as a podcast through Fat Guys at the

19:08

Movies. That's That's what I have retired and I and I'm no longer doing

19:14

the weekly call ins too, like like I used to call McConnell, you

19:18

know, I call it Rocky. Yeah. So I'm not doing those And

19:22

the reason for that is because I'm still doing movie reviews, but I'm really

19:26

only gonna be guaranteeing one movie a week, so I'm doing those callings.

19:32

Seems a little awkward where they're like, well, what about this, I'll be like, I don't know, I haven't seen it. What about this

19:36

one? I didn't see that one either, which is really a tremendous guest

19:41

to have. Yeah, I don't know nothing about nothing, but I saw

19:45

this the other night. Yeah, it's like trying to ask your teenager how

19:49

their day was at school. I don't know. I don't it was Okay,

19:52

I wasn't there. You should have been. You were, Yes,

19:55

you were there. But so I I do. I do movie reviews on

20:03

and I know it's it's not the same network, but it's on Westwood Ones

20:06

America in the morning. You do a review stores for them and some entertainment

20:11

reporting, so you hear me there. If you go to Fat Guys at the Movies, I'll still be publishing individual movie reviews in audio and in written

20:19

format, so you can hear those. If you just go there, you'll

20:22

find links to all of my social media where that stuff shows up. So

20:27

I'm still out there. I'm still doing things and you can still find me,

20:33

but I'm I'm sort of scaling back. A lot of it is a

20:37

time commitment, you know, to do the you're retiring early to pursue dreams

20:42

and hopes and aspirations that you've yet to get to. I get that.

20:45

Yeah, I admire you're you're my hero. Kevin Carr. Well, well,

20:49

thank you. I don't I should go get a cape, I guess,

20:52

or of that, I mean that that suit you. I don't know.

20:56

There is there a big, like you know, superhero movie this week.

20:59

It could to you, it could be, Yeah, it could be.

21:03

It would be a very boring movie. This would be one location to

21:06

be me, just like farting around in my own room. But you got

21:08

to have a hobby. Whatever works for you. Yeah that's good. Yeah

21:12

no, But it's like it's so I'm still doing the movies and you'll I'll

21:17

still talk to you when I can, because you know, we can talk about anything and make it interesting. At least I like to think. I

21:22

think so too. We had the Chubby and Stick podcast, which is sort

21:25

of out there but not out there. We've talked about doing more, and we've we've been talking. I mean, I don't know how many. I

21:30

was always here, but then it had left and gone other places, and

21:33

I took you everywhere I went without you, actually probably even leaving your house,

21:37

which I think is brilliant. And then then so we'll continue to talk

21:41

occasionally if nothing else, right, Yeah, absolutely, yeah, anytime.

21:47

I'm always available, so I'll still be out there doing stuff. It's just

21:49

the the time commitment of doing a full blown radio show was you know it

21:55

tax time commitment. I guess it is overwhelming emotionally, the time, the

22:00

research you got to show up in and I often say the show is free.

22:03

It's the work leading up to the show that they pay me for. Phil's and then I realized, wait a minute, what are we really getting

22:08

paid the two of us? I mean, rather than I think about it.

22:11

So, yeah, that's how that goes. Well, I'm going to

22:14

be doing I'm going to be doing writing and stuff like I've worked on fiction

22:18

over the years, and I'm going to be devoting some more time into that

22:22

and other things. And I'll have I'll be working on sort of like direct

22:27

consumer or direct to readers, typewriting and that because I don't have enough time

22:33

and I look, I'm in my fifties. I can't build an audience for

22:36

that over twenty years because then I'll be ready to retire from that. So

22:38

I'm doing some unique perspectives on that. So if you want to see how

22:42

really crazy my mind works and a deep dive into the insanity that is that

22:48

is the Kevin Carr Machine part of my brain. Yeah, you can start

22:52

checking out that. That's all going to be portaled out of Fat Guys at

22:56

the Movies. So if you're ever curious, Fat Guys at the Movies is the place to go to get information on what's happening. There you go.

23:03

Now, I'm very excited about this. Not you leaving, but you're pursuing

23:07

your dream. Sure of course you know that, But let's move on Godzilla

23:11

and Kong together. How many of these Kong and Gozilla movies have there been

23:17

over the years Over the years, Well, I mean there's famously one from

23:22

the sixties that was made in Japan, Godzilla versus King Kong with the big

23:27

rubber suits, So we've had that. But about ten years ago they rebooted

23:32

Godzilla, and then they had Kong Skull Island, and then they did Godzilla

23:37

King of the Monsters and Godzilla versus Kong through Legendary Pictures, which is sort

23:44

of that monster verse that they're building now. And now we have well you

23:48

also that TV series, the Monarch TV series on Ample TV plus that deals

23:52

with the same thing. But this one is the this one is it's well,

23:59

it's Godzilla x Kong. I don't know how to really say that,

24:03

because they're not getting together and mating. It's and it's not they're not fighting.

24:07

They're actually together, right, and they were all historically Wait a minute,

24:11

this is weird to me. Kevin Carr, by the way, was sterling on the Big One. Kong was this poor gorilla supersized anomaly pulled from

24:18

his native land where he was just living the Kong's life. Uh, you

24:22

know, brought here in multiple different forms over time. And Godzilla, of

24:26

course was awakened and he's an environmental like activist for one of a better way

24:30

to describe it, right, I mean that's a history berg who'sucleared. Yeah,

24:34

yeah, so going on for decades and decades back when like Paul Harry

24:38

Mason or Ironside before both of those that Raymond Burr was a part of it.

24:42

Yeah, so that the name Steve Martin. Raymond Burr was Steve Martin

24:48

before Steve Martin, which is crazy and playing the banjo. So they together

24:52

are working to improve things with a new empire or what is going on?

24:56

This is what people ask me. I'm asking you. It's it's a little

25:00

different. It's not based it's not one based on the King Kong movie,

25:03

you know, the one from nineteen thirty three. Yes, they had Skull

25:07

Island, but that was just more than this eighth than everybody worship and they

25:10

kind of back ended it in there. But he's not fifty feet tall. He's like three hundred feet tall, and he's a Kaiju, which a kaiju

25:17

tends to protect an area, and he would protect Skull Island. Uh.

25:19

And then they found him a place to live in Hollow Earth because apparently in

25:26

this series the earth is hollow and has a bunch of monsters and everything down

25:30

there. Don't ask me to explain the science behind it, because you can't.

25:34

And so Godzilla and Kong don't like each other because they're kaiju kind of

25:40

in the same environment. But since he's down now in the hollow Earth and

25:44

Godzilla's on land or on the surface, everything's fine. But they're teaming up.

25:51

They don't like each other, but they got to work together. And we've all been there, haven't we we have, so but it does sound

25:59

like a pay per view of it, and Godzilla X Kong. So I

26:02

just I like to say Godzilla kissing Kong because now your aunt would write you

26:06

letters birthday cards and be like kiss kiss, hug, hug. That's true.

26:11

So I just figured I just bring a little love into the whole thing.

26:14

Is this worth our time? I mean, is this big screen like

26:18

at the theater, grab some popcorn, get a get an oversized beverage that

26:21

may or may not be overpriced, and hang out with people you don't know? Or is this a I'm gonna stream it at the house and kick back

26:26

on the oversized television that's hanging on the wall. Well, the thing is,

26:30

I mean, it is a big screen movie. I mean it does

26:33

have the spectacle. That has the Kaiju, it has the big monsters, it has the smackdowns. Not as much smacking down as I wanted in a

26:38

movie, but you definitely have the environment. I mean, it is a

26:41

big screen movie. It's it's you know, and I think kids will like

26:45

it. It's kind of violent because they're monsters beating the tar out of each

26:48

other. Uh and there's a lot of Mayham. But you know, I

26:52

saw a bunch of kids in the screening I went to, so they seem

26:56

to enjoy it awesome, So yeah, I guess it's it's a movie.

27:00

But I just felt one of the things that there's always a challenge in these

27:03

movies is what to do with the stupid human characters, because no one's there

27:07

to see the people. They're there to see the monsters. But the characters

27:11

have to do something. And the characters they really weren't focused. They just

27:14

existed to kind of explain all the gobbly goook theories as to why they're in

27:19

a hollow earth and where this kind you came from and where and who's fighting

27:23

whom and why this is going on, and that just kind of got boring

27:29

after a while. I just I'm like, okay, got chop, get

27:32

to the monsters. So this is really would you say it's a perfect Eastern

27:36

movie? I mean, O, there are the other eggs because often historically

27:40

I remember in other movies there'd be like an egg and it hatches and all

27:42

of a sudden, it's a baby Godzilla. I don't remember a baby Kong

27:45

at any point. There was Mighty Joe Young, but that was a whole

27:48

notherng. There is a small cang in this one. There's a baby minikongh

27:55

that's nice. Yeah, okay, that is sort of sweet. That's nice.

28:00

Anything else before we let you go? If we covered everything, I

28:03

feel bad letting you go, Like this is who knows when you'll be back.

28:07

Who know you'll be just roaming the earth writing stories, asking questions.

28:11

I'll be like Kane from Kung Fu with a typewriter. That's really what it'll

28:15

be. And you were able to take that cabble from my hand. So

28:18

it's time for you to leave. Thank you. I don't know if i'd

28:22

say perfect easter movie, but it's a good spectacle film. There you go,

28:27

there you have it all right? So Godzilla by Kong or Kissing Kong

28:32

or ex Kong the New Empire, and he is Kevin Karr bat guys at

28:37

the movies dot Com. That's where everything Kevin Carr is, wherever he goes,

28:41

whatever he chooses to do, and back here sooner than later. So

28:45

any ideas like I mean, are you leaving now or are you vacationing now?

28:48

I mean, before you go, what shall we know? Are you

28:51

gonna have an Easter egg hunt? You didn't invite me to the House of Car. I mean, these are things that I need to know. Well,

28:56

my kids aren't little anymore, so we haven't got egs or anything like

29:00

that. Get some deviled eggs. Those are always good. Yeah. Oh

29:03

no, I like devil dings. I'll eat some devil DGGs. No,

29:06

we're just we're just dealing with uh. You know, we're just gonna relax.

29:08

This week is my wife's spring break, so I think we're gonna just

29:12

we're gonna chill out for a little bit. I really notice next week when

29:15

I have Noticday, I don't have to get up at six in the morning

29:18

on a Friday to do radio calls, which is a beautiful thing. Kevin

29:21

Carr. Thank you. We've had fun over the years and to revisit again

29:25

and we'll have you back. I mean, I don't know. I feel like this is somehow like a major thing here, and but we still have

29:32

to go. All right, I'm just being told time is up. I

29:36

mean, I don't have any control over this. I'm just a simple man behind a microphone with a window into a hallway. There you go, all

29:42

right, Kevin Carr, take care of yourself. Fat guys inmovies dot Com

29:45

I'll be looking for Godzilla, Aikon and more coming back. Seven hundred WLW.

29:52

We're playing ball. Go big right field, good bad, big bad

29:56

red legs take on the Washington nash Way back Way God those wigs. They're

30:03

looking for a hot start to this season. Here come around, Okay, nailed down the next Get the actually live from Gabph tomorrow it's we can on

30:14

seven hundred wl W and seven hundred wl w's live stream of the iHeart Radio

30:21

Join us for our twenty twenty four iHeartRadio Music Awards Live from the Jolde Theater

30:26

in Hollywood Monday. It's away from your ten o'clock report. Aaron Johnson has

30:30

en up that it's happening around planet Earth and what's going on right here in

30:34

the tri stape for us about four minutes away. Then Dave had or cybersecurity

30:40

expert, our guru, if you will, You're going to try to keep us safe from those people out there that are trying to rip us off,

30:45

steal our identities, and and you name it. It seems like every day

30:48

you get push messages to your random devices, you listen to the news on

30:52

the Big One, there's a story about this place or that place that's had

30:56

a breach and personal information being out there. Just in the last week or

31:00

two, I had a couple of people message me saying that they had gotten

31:03

a notice from their streaming service updating their information about their agreement to handle any

31:11

type of problem to go through arbitration rather than the courts. And then multiple

31:15

days later they received notification, ironically or maybe not so ironically, that that

31:22

streaming service had had a breach of personal information. So whether they got in

31:26

front of it knowing about it before it was released to the public, they

31:30

forgured, hey, let's get these people to agree to continue streaming, because

31:33

you didn't have a choice. It was like do you want to save it?

31:36

But you had to say okay before you could continue on to watch anything.

31:41

And then after that, shortly they became the information that they had been

31:45

violated in some fashion with I guess it was personal information, credit card numbers,

31:49

whatever else for automatic billing. So I don't know if they got the

31:53

cart in front of the horse or not proverbially speaking, but I had like

31:56

five different people message me about it, and then I got a message about

32:00

the breach, so it's like, okay, somehow I feel like I've been

32:05

violated. So we'll get to Dave Patter after the ten o'clock report about those

32:08

type of things. Because whether I mean, whether you're just going to the

32:12

drive through, whether you're buying things online, you name it, or maybe

32:15

you're just messing around on your device of choice. Apparently we're all out there

32:21

half naked half the time, and that can be not just embarrassing but dangerous.

32:25

So we'll figure exactly what's what with him, and maybe how to keep

32:30

ourselves as safe as possible. Speaking of safe, this from Carrie messaged me

32:36

headline three hundred and fifty wild horses target of B. LM. Baiten trap

32:40

one hundred and fifty five or one hundred and fifty miles north of Vegas.

32:45

It carries a friend of mine that used to listen to me when I was in Vegas listens now in the iHeartRadio app said I'd appreciate this. There's still

32:52

wild horses out there, lots and lots of them, and apparently they're rounding

32:58

up a bunch more. They don't want the public to see it. In

33:00

this case, there are people very upset about it. If they cannot find

33:07

homes for them, they will sell them, and oftentimes what they do and

33:13

we'll talk about this later, they will sell them to processing plants or companies

33:19

that usually are in Mexico. I think occasionally they will process the horses here

33:24

Stateside, Texas other places closer to the border, and then distribute those meats

33:31

for consumption out of the country elsewhere, because people eat horse. I know

33:37

you're driving right now and you want, oh my stone shields. It's like, you've got to be kidding me. What. Yes, it's true.

33:42

I know I don't want to think about it either. But we eat cow,

33:45

and we eat fish, and we eat chicken, and we eat a

33:49

whole bunch of other stuffs. Some people eat horse. We'll talk on that

33:52

later on, which has a lot of people feeling very uncomfortable that it's un

33:57

American that we would somehow sell the America and horse for food consumption elsewhere.

34:01

But all I can say is it does seem weird. It seems uncomfortable and

34:06

awkward. But if there's hungry people out there and somebody says, here,

34:09

would you like a you know, a horse steak or would you like nothing,

34:15

I'm guessing some people be like, I'd like that Horse Medium. Well,

34:21

I could be wrong, so we'll talk on that a bit later. Dave Hatter joins us, talking cybersecurity and protecting yourself, your identity and the

34:28

ones you love. After the news ten o'clock reports straight away Red's back at

34:31

action tomorrow, game two of one hundred and sixty two regular season games.

34:37

They are one to oh. They look to make it two and o tomorrow with the Nats in town A gabp. It's sterling here, home of the

34:42

Red seven hundred WLW, Cincinnati. These are strange days. Seems to maybe

34:47

daily is a stretch. I guess if you go digging, you may find

34:51

this type of news daily, but it's certainly weekly and seemingly at least monthly

34:57

that I personally find accounts and business shoes that I deal with professionally or personally

35:04

that end up being involved in some type of cybersecurity kind of hijacking or something

35:10

where it's a stolen identity, news of a breach, a concern about credit

35:15

card numbers, personal information, you name it, whether it's a streaming service

35:20

or credit card company, an entertainment thing, someplace you've bought something in the

35:24

store you got to worry about it. Do you tap it, do you

35:28

swipe it? Do you pump the gas and pay for it at the pump?

35:30

Do you go inside? Do you pay with cash? The whole point

35:34

what the credit card was the convenience, And now you got to worry about

35:37

everything being hoisted that way too, loyalty cards. I mean, the lists

35:42

go on and on, even to Vegas. It wasn't that long ago.

35:45

MGM Resorts had a big thing that made the news talking about some type of

35:52

I want to go, like a hijacking, hacker kind of scenario where they

35:58

were look at they were like tens of millions of dollars they were trying to

36:00

hoist away from a casino. In the old days, they take your knees

36:05

out, they bury and put you in a hole in the desert or something.

36:07

Today it could be somebody in a basement, under a bed, in a closet, on a boat in the middle of Nowhereville, and tracking him

36:14

down could be impossible. But I know a guy. You may know a

36:16

guy, and he's here on a Friday night, sterling Dave Hatter, a

36:22

guy who knows from cybersecurity. He'd be an expert, a consultant. Call

36:24

him. What you want. I like to say, Dave Hatter's a guru.

36:28

Dave Hatter, thank you for making time on a Friday. I know

36:30

we were confused maybe on a Saturday, so thank you for being here.

36:34

What's up man? How are you? It's all good, sterling, I'm

36:37

good. How are you? I'm okay. This MGM thing, which had

36:42

been out there for a while and then resurfaced with some more information the last

36:45

day, got my attention. There was a streaming service. I mentioned a

36:49

few minutes ago that I've had no less than five people reach out to me,

36:54

and then I found myself with the same notification that they had gotten that

36:59

initially forced you before you streamed anything, to agree to arbitration if there was

37:05

a problem, and then within a week, subsequent to saying okay, because

37:07

you want to watch what you watch, I want to watch when you watch

37:10

it, then receive notification there had been a breach and personal information had been

37:16

hoisted. And I guess now they figure. My guess is they may have

37:20

known before I could be row Dave Hatter, how regularly is this occurring?

37:25

Because we hear about it regularly, But my guess is it happens more than

37:30

we know about Yeah, I think your hunt is exactly right, because not

37:34

every state has a requirement to report a cyber breach, and then even for

37:39

states to do there's all kinds of different rules. You know. Unfortunately,

37:44

we don't have any sort of national privacy law that would require notification around these

37:49

things at this point. Now, you know, there's all kinds of weird

37:52

movement of foot with the SEC on different regulations, but at the moment,

37:55

unfortunately, as a consumer, for the most part, again depending on what

38:00

state you're in, you're just kind of left hanging in the breeze. And

38:04

one of the things that is very frustrating for me as a guy who constantly

38:07

talks about this stuff and it tries to get businesses to take this seriously,

38:10

is you, as the consumer, are always ultimately the victim when you see,

38:15

like you mentioned MGM, and you may recall here recently Clorox got hacked,

38:20

you know, a big ransomware attack. And when people here ransomware,

38:23

you know, normally the way it was in the old days was you get

38:28

ransomware, it shuts your systems down because your data is encrypted, You pay

38:31

the ransom, or you restore from backup and you go on. Well,

38:36

they got wise to this, the bad guys and said, Okay, if

38:38

you can restore, you're not going to pay the ransom. So now we're

38:40

going to steal your data while we're encrypting it and then try to hold you

38:45

hostage with extra leverage of if you don't pay the ransom, fine, you

38:50

can restore, but if you don't pay the ransom, we'll start to release

38:52

your data. Or we've even seen in some cases still, I think it's crazy where thedn't they start to attack the people whose data they've stolen as leverage

39:00

against the company they stole it from. So, yeah, I can guarantee

39:04

you whatever is reported is probably a fraction of what's really happening because there isn't

39:09

a reporting requirement in many cases, and thus companies don't want the black eye,

39:15

you know. And sadly though, even when they get a black eye,

39:17

it's usually for a short period of time. You as the effective consumer,

39:22

get your oh well, here's some credit monitoring, good luck, and then you're the one that ultimately suffers the consequences of this once they start the

39:29

identity theft or whatever else is there going to do to you. It's it's

39:31

really sad and unfortunate, but that's just where we're at at this point.

39:35

He's Dave had or cybersecurity guruz what I call them, the website and trust

39:38

it says consultants, so we'll go with that. I guess it's in print

39:42

in front of me, so I guess that's what it is in these type

39:45

of circumstances. What is the liability and culpability for businesses? I mean,

39:52

whether you're a small business that's maybe you know, got a website and allow

39:54

people to pay online if you're doing landscaping, lawn work, of pushing snow

40:00

out of the way in the cold weather months, to maybe even a big

40:02

company if someone's paying me online for my website, for my voice work or

40:07

something else, and there's a breach, thankfully none that I know of.

40:10

Where do I fall on the list of culpability for protecting clients or business associates

40:16

and so forth. Well, it entirely depends on what states you're in at

40:22

the moment. There are fifteen states. Because I'm happy to say that Kentucky

40:29

now hasn't been signed by the governor as far as I know, but Kentucky just recently passed the Kentucky Consumer Data Protection Act, which is sort of loosely

40:38

based on a law in Virginia. California has by far the most rigorous protections

40:43

for you as a consumer. They are about fifteen states that have taken this

40:45

action. I know Ohio has something brewing, but as far as I know,

40:49

it hasn't passed. So again, it really depends on what the state

40:53

laws say, because there isn't a federal law. And most of the time,

40:58

if you are a company that gets breached and has data stolen about your

41:00

customers, your vendors, your employees, there really is almost no culpability.

41:06

In most cases. It's the unfortunate people who had their data stolen who then

41:09

may be hacked on a secondary basis again, a dentity theft, people trying

41:14

to hack into your bank accounts or whatever. You know, they're the ones that mostly suffer. Other than whatever the initial public black eye is, Hey

41:21

look we got hacked, Sorry about that. And you know I can tell

41:24

you sterling. In the last four or five years, I've gotten leashed five

41:30

different letters from different organizations who've been breached saying, oh hey, sorry your

41:34

data was stolen. Here's a year of free credit monitoring. Thanks for shopping

41:37

right, you know, and probably everyone listening tonight has gotten at least one

41:42

of these, because unfortunately, businesses do not take this too seriously and they

41:47

make it easy for the hackers. And I just can't stress enough. In

41:52

most cases, it's not that a business is being targeted. It's sit there

41:57

an easy target and they're just you know, they're running automated tools that are

42:01

looking for weaknesses and when they find a weakness, stay exploit because they unless

42:07

it is a targeted attack by like the Chinese Communist Party or something, they're

42:10

just trying to steal money and they're going to do it however they can because

42:14

we make it easy for them. Unfortunately, it's amazing to me. Yeah,

42:16

we're the ones that suffer. Yeah, now just say we're it's the

42:20

consumer. We're the ones that suffer all the time. And even when there's

42:23

some type of effort to make it good, we're still paying because the money's

42:28

got to come from someplace. So in the end, we're all taken in

42:30

the shorts. It's just the way it is, I guess, until and

42:35

less and until we get to a place where either the federal government or states

42:40

and my opinion need an incentive and a you know, a carot and a

42:44

stick approach to this, where you know, if you get breached, there

42:47

are consequences, and there are incentives for you to take the right steps because

42:52

there's nothing you can do that's totally fool proof sturning. Let's be realistic.

42:55

You know, these hackers are very smart. And if if you have a

42:59

nate state actor like China that literally has unlimited resources, you know, FBI

43:05

Director Ray recently said they believe the Chinese Communist Party has roughly fifty times the

43:09

hackers that we do, you know, kind of working in the opposite direction

43:13

against foreign adversaries, we have unlimited time and resources. If they make you

43:17

a target, they're going to hack you eventually, probably. But there's a

43:22

lot of simple, low hanging fruit type things you can do as an organization

43:25

that will make it much much more difficult for these things to happen, and

43:30

people just don't do it, unfortunately, and again we suffer as the consumers,

43:34

So that's aggravating. It's not even always businesses outright doing commerce. Is

43:39

that Dave Hatter, by the way, cybersecurity a consultant expert here. The

43:43

big one was sterling seven hundred WLW. What I mean by that, in

43:47

weaving this into the question beyond that is that it seems to me, I

43:52

mean, there's been so much talk about TikTok and you know, every social

43:55

media platform effectively, but am I crazy to think that we often just give

44:00

away a lot of information on those platforms that really is everything that someone who

44:06

wants to screw us over could possibly want in some fashion, whether it's you're

44:10

married, dating, where you are at any given point in time, where

44:14

you're traveling, or where you've been in that type of thing, birthdate,

44:19

I mean, other than like mother's maiden name, and maybe that's out there

44:21

too, am I not a You're exactly right, and that might be out

44:27

there too, because people will take the quiz like which Little Mermaid character am

44:30

I? Oh? I've seen? And a lot of times those quizzes are designed to get the kind of information you get subscribed. But let me you've

44:37

touched on something that really hits a nerve with me, because people will say,

44:40

well, I've got nothing to hide, Why do I care if I

44:44

use TikTok and it aggressively collects all of my data and sence it to China.

44:46

So, first off, I encourage people if you're using some sort of

44:52

app like TikTok. Now, first off, I would tell you just delete TikTok's it's a Chinese communist party SIOP tool. But nevertheless, go to the

45:00

Apple Store and look at the privacy label that Apple requires for apps. Look

45:05

at TikTok and see what it says they can collect from your phone, which is basically everything on your phone. You touched on many of the items.

45:12

It's everything now and then again people say, well, I got nothing to

45:15

hide, what do I care? Well, did you catch the story recently

45:19

stirring about how now people are having their car insurance premiums raised because they have

45:24

a modern car that collects in the extensive amount of data about you. It's

45:30

a so called smart device or Internet of things device. And I would encourage

45:34

people, by the way, check out the Mozilla Privacy non included report on

45:37

cars. It's mind blowing. But your car is collecting all this data,

45:40

maybe through an app, maybe through the car, maybe through both, and

45:45

then they're selling that to data brokers who then sell it to insurance companies,

45:47

and all of a sudden, your insurance premium goes up because they don't like

45:52

the way you drive. Does it ever go the other direction where? Because

45:55

I know a couple of years ago I had you remember when we talked earlier

46:00

on when the insurance companies first started promoting the idea of a device to put

46:02

into your car to allow them to do that. So now they don't even

46:07

need you to agree to have the device, because the black box that's in

46:10

most modern cars, you're saying is already sharing information but for a profit for

46:15

the manufacture of the vehicle. That is exactly correct. Again, Mozilla recently

46:20

reported on this, The New York Coast is reported on this, and it's

46:23

the downstream. So to go back to your original question about apps collecting your

46:28

data and people saying why I got nothing to hide if you were giving up

46:34

enormous amounts of very sensitive data, everything that you view online, all of

46:37

your contacts, everywhere you go, all of that stuff, right, that's

46:42

getting aggregated through various data brokers, sold through various data brokers. And then

46:47

the downstream uses are things like, well, we don't like the way this

46:52

this guy drives, so we're going to increase his premiums or we're going to

46:54

cancel this policy that you know, or perhaps more insidious use is like your

47:00

apply for a job and you don't get the job because they buy data about

47:06

you, and you know, unlike a credit score, where at least you can see it and potentially a challenge something that might be incorrect, or b

47:15

work to change your score, improve your score because you understand the score.

47:19

This stuff is happening in the background. You don't have any idea that it's

47:22

happening. And did you consent to this? Well, I would argue you

47:25

didn't go given form consent because you downloaded an app. You didn't read the

47:30

eighty pages of mumbo jumbo around the terms of service and the privacy policy.

47:34

You just said yes, and then this thing has set all your data off

47:37

and now it's used against you. You know, could your health insurance go up? Could you not get a job or not be able to runt an

47:43

apartment or whatever. Yeah, these are real things that are happening right now,

47:47

and most people have no idea a that this is even a possibility,

47:51

or b what to do about it. Because once your data is out there,

47:55

it's out there forever. So I know this sounds domish and apocalyptic,

48:00

but you know I'm not saying I don't use any apps, but I can

48:05

tell you if you looked at my Apple phone, you would see I have

48:07

a very very small number of apps on it. And you know I'm very

48:13

stringent and stingy about the data I'm giving up. You know, I have

48:16

to see a clear value in it, because I don't want to have my

48:21

day to use this way. I don't want to get hacked at some point

48:23

in the future, have my identity stolen, have my bank accounts hacked,

48:28

or whatever. Because I just said, yeah, I got nothing to hide,

48:30

I'm just going to put it all that so once it's out there,

48:34

I mean, is there anything you can other than being a ghost and a

48:37

complete aerodite who just completely hides someplace which I've been accused of. And I

48:43

can tell you this just looking at my phone while speaking. My calculator is

48:46

collecting information from my address book, which includes text, which means every time

48:51

that we've communicated, hey, are you available on Friday or whatever it is.

48:54

So they get all of that information, even for the calculator, because

48:59

they certainly needed for me to like do long format and so that you make

49:04

an excellent point starting why does the calculator app on your phone. Need to

49:08

know that you sent me a text of what benefit could that ever possibly be

49:14

to you, except for the fact that that's your trade off to the person

49:17

that made the calculator app. Right, you know it's sadly we're in this

49:22

surveillance capitalism model. Well, people think this stuff is free. It's not

49:25

free. You know, I was a software engineer for most of my career.

49:30

I didn't write software for free. I didn't do it out of the goodness in my heart. You know, I got a mortgage too, just

49:35

like everybody else out there. When you use this stuff for free, the

49:38

trade off is you are the product, not the customer. You're not paying

49:44

with money, you're paying with data. And I'm not saying that's necessarily bad

49:47

or nefarious, but what I am saying is you need to understand that trade

49:52

off. And if there's a certain app that provides specific value to you,

49:57

and you understand the trade off, it's free to you because they're collecting your

50:00

data and you want to make that trade off. Okay, have about it.

50:05

But most people don't understand the trade off. They're downloading all kinds of

50:08

stuff all the time. That's quote free, and then your data is going

50:13

to China, it's going to Russia. There was a recent story, I

50:15

don't know if you caught this one fascinating. A reporter got a brand new

50:21

well he took an Android phone, wiped it, set it up from scratch,

50:24

downloaded one hundred of the top Android apps from the Android App Store,

50:30

and then basically, over the course of seventy two hours, install all these

50:35

apps, gave them all the permissions they wanted, and then watch how much

50:37

data was being sent off. Data was being sent to China, data was

50:42

being sent to Russia. His phone made six thousand, two hundred and ninety

50:46

three different requests over that period of time to things out on the internet.

50:52

In the last twenty four hours when he didn't even touch the phone, the

50:55

phone was just sitting there doing nothing, per se to onwenty three hundred and

51:00

something requests happening in the background. So again, it's not necessarily bad if

51:07

you understand this. But that's why I try to limit the amount of data

51:12

I'm giving up to these people, because even if I trust the maker of

51:15

app X, I don't know who they're selling my data to and where that

51:19

might end up At some downstream place that's going to come back to bite me

51:22

somehow. So yeah, to your point, it's hard. You can't just

51:27

get off the grid and live in modern society, right, But once you

51:30

understand the trade off you're making, and then you can focus on all right,

51:34

Well, if I need an app that does X, and I find

51:37

a privacy friendly app, again, I'll point you to Mozilla. The people

51:39

that make the Firefox browser have this great site called Privacy Not Included, And

51:45

there are organizations like the Electronic Frontier Foundation or EPIC, the Electronic Privacy Information

51:51

Center where they will rate things and tell you like, this is a privacy

51:54

friendly thing, that's not a privacy friendly thing. So you can without the

51:59

one little tinfoil hat Dave Hatter down in the bunker approach. You can make

52:05

privacy friendly choices and limit the amount of information that's being put out there for

52:09

you. And that's about the best you could do. But the great the

52:12

good things throwing is there are plenty of resources that will help you make you

52:16

know better, better choices, smarter decisions, and reduce the likelihood of getting

52:22

hacked. And you know, all of these bad things that could potentially happen

52:24

well, I appreciate the time. Every time we speak, I feel better

52:28

for about half the conversation than the other half I feel much worse, which

52:31

is really not good now that I think about it, but I guess it

52:35

boils down to basically limiting our exposure. Dave had or cybersecurity consultant, call

52:40

in the guru. What was that? I'm sorry. I was going to

52:44

say, that's about the best you can do. Yeah, about the best you could do. Well, there you go. I appreciate you making time.

52:47

I hope you enjoy the rest of this Easter weekend and it's a good

52:51

one for you and yours, whatever your plans are. And that we appreciate

52:53

the insight and people can find out more. It's in trust dash dot com.

52:59

I'll put it out. They're on x as well. I appreciate that

53:01

stirring and you can find me on Twitter or LinkedIn too, you know,

53:05

happy to try to get the word out for people. I appreciate it. You have a great Easter weekend as well. Take care of yourself. Man,

53:10

Thank you. I don't feel very much. I was hoping to feel

53:14

better, and I just don't like the way this goes. And we're late

53:16

too, Holy crap, ten third reports straight away, more sterling coming back,

53:20

appreciate you being here on the Nation station seven hundred WW. Life's the

53:23

constant swirl of shopping, groceries, clothes, gifts, the occasional self care

53:29

splurge. You know how it is. That's why you should get the Drop

53:31

app with Drops about twenty two minutes and five seconds or so away from now

53:37

and what else we got going on? Holy crap. A conversation with Kevin

53:42

Carr back guys in the movie there's a new Godzilla King Caong film. If

53:45

you hadn't heard, it's out there. I think it's it was a Godzilla

53:50

X call or something like that. I guess they're buddies now. I don't

53:54

think they're fighting each other. I think they're fighting evil or something. I

53:59

don't know. We will talk to him that a little bit later issues on

54:01

the Francis Scott key Bridge. We'll revisit that in a bit. And I

54:07

touched on this earlier. I've had some response that's been I guess it's not

54:12

really surprising. And there's a couple of ways this can go odd. Things

54:17

you've eaten, some things you never ever could imagine eating. And what do

54:22

you do with wild horses in the American West, because the American horse is

54:28

running wild and to plenty. When I lived in Nevada, didn't really know

54:35

for sure that there were still really wild horses in America, but there are.

54:39

And the Bureau of Land Management commonly known as BLM, is targeting about

54:45

three hundred and fifty wild horses in the Nevada Desert north of Las Vegas by

54:51

about two and a half hours three hour drive depending and here shortly. What

54:57

they're going to do is bait the horses have some water. Then they'll try

55:01

to gather them up, and then they're going to try to sell them,

55:05

find homes for them, or they will sell them, probably for consumption.

55:12

I know, I know, it's I mean, who wants to think about

55:15

that, but it's true. There are a lot of hungry people in the

55:20

tri State. There are a lot of hungry people around this country, people

55:24

that are at risk of I guess you'd call it food and security for one

55:29

of a better way to describe it. And apparently these horses are endangering other

55:34

endangered species. It's bad for them because it's frankly, it's the desert,

55:39

and well, the desert's really not made for a whole lot when it comes

55:44

to like animals and people that need water and vegetation and so forth. But

55:47

they found a way to eke out an existence over decades and decades and in

55:54

these public lands. And this has gone on for a long time. In

55:59

America, people used to like openly you could go to like the meat market

56:02

and buy horse, right. I don't know if they were losers at the

56:07

track. I don't know if they were all tired a horse that may have

56:10

been chewy and hard to eat. I don't know. I don't believe I've

56:14

ever had horse. I don't really want to try to eat the equine.

56:17

But apparently it's out there and could very well be on plate someplace, most

56:22

likely to be processed in Texas or south of the American Mexican border, and

56:29

then that meat would be sold other places. You just heard in the news

56:32

our friends in France with the Olympics are looking for help for security. They

56:39

I think they eat a horse there. It's available, like the store.

56:44

You can go in and go like some horse. I don't know how you

56:46

order it. I don't know how you decide what's good and bad. I

56:50

can order a cattle. I understand how to beef. I get horse meat.

56:53

I don't know. I don't even know that there's a name for it.

56:58

Actually, like a pork as a hog, right, and then you

57:00

know you got a poultry, which would be chickens and like duck ducks of

57:04

fowl. I think you know in that family. But here's my question too,

57:07

You want what do you do with all the wild horses that are running

57:12

wild in the desert of the United States? Is the Bureau of Land Management

57:15

doing the right thing? And if when they bade it and water trap these

57:21

horses that are wild in and around Colliente, Nevada. It's hot there at

57:27

Calliente, play on words, and the last time they've done this is twenty

57:31

nineteen. It's an unusual scenario. So if they cannot find homes for these,

57:39

like people might want to adopt the horse, right, I mean that

57:43

might be something they want to do. They're like, oh, I'd like to get a horse, and why not save one from the Nevada desert.

57:49

The fact is they could very well be selling them to be processed for sale

57:55

if not adopted, so then it would be most likely processed for meat.

58:01

So what I asked you, was this with all the hundred people in America?

58:05

Should we be giving them the horse meat? Would you eat horse meat?

58:08

Maybe you've had horse meat? Five one, three, seven, four,

58:12

nine, eight hundred, the big one. You can talk back the

58:15

iHeartRadio app. Click that tap that app if you will on the microphone.

58:19

You can leave a message there. It's at Stirling Radio. What was Twitter

58:23

as well? Now ax, if you want to get interactive. I don't

58:29

think any animals should be treated harshly, abused or otherwise. I you know,

58:35

I'm not a vegan. I like my vegetables, but I like hamburgers,

58:40

I like steak, I like chicken, I like fish, I like

58:44

meat products. I've not knowingly had horse. I suppose I'd be willing to

58:49

try it. For some reason, the idea of eating horse creeps me out.

58:52

It makes me uncomfortable. A lot of people around the world think otherwise.

58:58

There are some people that think eating cattle is a bad idea, that

59:02

we have a hierarchy right. Some people around the world they eat dog,

59:07

some eat cat. Here we lose our mind at the thought of someone eating

59:13

a dog or a cat, But in other parts of the world they are

59:16

hold up in boxes in trucks and tractor trailers and carried from one place to

59:22

another, sold in markets, the same way that we see hogs or cattle

59:28

driving around seventy one and seventy five at any given point in time on their

59:31

way to market to be processed or slaughtered. That's the dirtier word. People

59:36

like processed. They like it on a styrofoam package that's wrapped in plastic wrap,

59:40

because most people don't want to actually think about butchering an animal, feeding

59:47

and caring for an animal, treating it with respect and dignity, and then

59:52

in the end, you put a bolt in its head or whatever, and

59:55

then you hang it up, you bleed it out, you skin it,

59:58

you gout it. You take those meat products, you take that as a side of beef, and you get it cut down and then you get some

1:00:02

steaks, you get some hamburger, whatever it is. But I know that

1:00:07

that for a lot of people, that's disturbing because we have sanitized it.

1:00:12

We have separated the idea of taking a chicken that you've taken care of on

1:00:15

your own, or whatever other animal and going through that process. We liked

1:00:22

it to separate that. I think a lot of people. I could be

1:00:25

wrong my observation or hallucination, but from people that I know, the people

1:00:30

that I've talked to regularly, in a circumstance like this, if we had

1:00:35

to take care of the animal, if you had to see the animal,

1:00:39

if you called that cow over, the cow will come to you like a

1:00:44

dog or a cat. They're a majestic creature. They have long, curly

1:00:46

eyelashes. I remember those ads when I was a tiny sterling and they would

1:00:52

I think they called her Elsie the cow. She sold milk, chocolate milk.

1:00:57

They never mentioned the hamburgers or the steaks when they were talking talking about

1:01:00

Elsie. But Elsie was the dairy cow. And then eventually maybe became a

1:01:05

steak cow or a burger cow or something along those lines. But those animals

1:01:09

majestic. They'll come when you call. They're sweet, they're smart, but

1:01:13

damn they taste good. But the idea of a horse, for a lot

1:01:16

of people, it is disgusting. They go, oh, you'll ride a

1:01:21

horse, you'll watch a horse, you'll bet on a horse. You'll look

1:01:23

at the horse when you're driving along and you see them in a pending area

1:01:28

and you see their stables or the paddock whatever, and you go, hey,

1:01:31

look at those horses. Boy, they sure are nice. And we

1:01:35

think American horse. The band of the Colt even had a song called the

1:01:37

American Horse. And we think, okay, well, yeah, we wouldn't

1:01:40

want to hurt a horse. Some people even want to protest. And you

1:01:45

know, people will boycott like the rodeo because they say, well, they

1:01:49

mistreat the the you know, the bulls, or they mistreat the horses or

1:01:52

the calfs that are a part of that process with the roping and everything else.

1:01:55

Yet we'll go to the store and grab a steak, We'll grab a

1:02:00

big thing and make a roast, or you'll be thrilling out some hamburgers.

1:02:05

So I ask you, would you have a problem eating horse? Have you

1:02:08

eaten it? What's the strangest thing you've eaten somewhere? And if there are

1:02:13

hungry Americans and I know there are, and we have these animals that are

1:02:16

overpopulated, as the Bureau of Land Management says, is there a problem with

1:02:22

offering it up for food for people in need in these United States? If

1:02:28

not selling them to other parts of the world. There are people in the

1:02:30

past who are protested and thoroughly disgusted at the concept that they would round these

1:02:37

animals up, and if they are not adopted, the concept of them going

1:02:40

elsewhere to be processed and served up on a plate someplace overseas revolts them,

1:02:46

and protests historically have been something that has gone on in and around these type

1:02:52

of sales. Once the animals have been rounded up out in the middle of

1:02:55

nowhere and brought some place to be bid on or adopted for individuals to take

1:03:00

home and ride and care for and so forth, they live a long time.

1:03:04

They're great animals. They're smart animals, but so were cows. I

1:03:07

had a buddy of mine I used to work with. You had a chicken, a pet chicken for I kid you, not thirteen years and this is

1:03:13

coming from me. I've had a pet turtle since I was eight years old,

1:03:16

and now over forty five years I have had that turtle. She will

1:03:20

likely outlive me. And I know people eat turtle, but I do not

1:03:25

because I know Fred's at home, and it makes me uncomfortable to thinks that

1:03:30

I'd be eating another version of Fred, who's hanging out under that night light

1:03:34

right about now, probably hiding out when spring is hair, get me into

1:03:37

the backyard. It's Red's baseball season, and then she'll be spent a time

1:03:40

in the backyard. Is sterling five point three seven four nine seven eight hundred

1:03:45

the big one. I'm curious, are you okay with eating horse? Are you against it? Is this just what happens? And so be it pursue

1:03:51

our happiness? And if it's If it's a horse steak you want and it's

1:03:54

available, why not have it? Your chance to speak your mind? Coming

1:03:58

up? Also bridge issues, news and karma. Could it be bad karma

1:04:01

to eat a horse? We'll talk on the eighty four percent of Americans believing

1:04:05

that good deeds or bad can come back and reward you or haunt you in

1:04:12

the future. It's a Friday night, Sterling. Your chance to be heard

1:04:15

on the other side seven hundred WLW. A good day starts with a good

1:04:19

morning. Here's Catherine Oh. She's the CEO of an up and coming AI

1:04:26

technology company, and she starts her busy day listening to Mike mccon Good Morning.

1:04:31

She feeds her hungry head with the latest news, weather, traffic,

1:04:34

investment, and international news and more. Plus she loves Mike's sense of humor.

She may make money with artificial intelligence, but she knows what she wants.

1:04:45

In the morning McConnell Intelligence Monday morning at five on seven hundred wlwe work

1:04:53

Whitney Harris will have an uhing on what's going on. Mention this issue with

1:04:56

the horses being auctioned off. You can adopt the horse, you'd probably I

1:05:00

have to ship it to the tri State, or maybe you can buy it.

1:05:03

The ideas of Bureau of Land Managements looking to collect capture get off the

1:05:10

public lands and private lands something like three hundred and fifty horses. They do

1:05:14

this every few years because they just keep making more, even though it's hard out there on the desert and they're just out there, so they gather them

1:05:20

up. They try to get them adopted out for people to take, to

1:05:25

enjoy and to take care of. And then if they can't, they'll sell

1:05:28

them. And often they're sold for meat product. Which got me thinking is

1:05:31

that, Okay, would you eat horse? Have you eaten horse? And

1:05:34

if you're hungry, I think it'd be hard to turn it down if you

1:05:36

needed like some protein or something. I don't know, for some reason,

1:05:40

I'll eat chicken, I'll eat fish, I'll eat steak from like a cow,

1:05:44

and I like my pork in a variety of ways, including bacon.

1:05:49

But the idea of horse, I admit it. I'm a hypocrite. I

1:05:53

got multiple double and triple standards in association with this. But I'm wondering if

1:05:58

you would adopt a horse or eat a horse, or both may be adopted

1:06:00

to eat it, it'd be kind of weird. But we don't eat dog

1:06:02

and cat, most of us anyway. Five three hundred, the big one.

1:06:08

Let's get to Baitsville. Bob first, then Mike before the news.

1:06:11

What's up, Bob? How are you good? My friend? Longtime listener,

1:06:15

long time appreciate listen. You know, try to tell everybody you know.

1:06:19

I mean, I've been around horse and cattle montyle life, and I

1:06:24

own three Chinese restaurants and eating horses just like eating eat eating cattle. I

1:06:30

mean, it all tastes the same. I mean, you need season, it's all the same way. It's just like chicken. You know, It's

1:06:34

just like you know, and in my Chinese restaurants, I ain't gonna lie.

1:06:38

You know, everybody talks about you know, you know all well Chinese,

1:06:42

you know, eat dog and cat overseas well. It's the same thing

1:06:44

here. I mean, you know, we get all of our stuff from the same places. What minute, so you're saying and you own American restaurants

1:06:53

and that you are serving cat and dog, Yes, a cat and dog

1:06:57

or the same Yes. I mean, I mean that I didn't think that

1:07:00

was legal in the states, like I would imagine the Board of Health in

1:07:03

Hamilton County, Butler County, you know, wherever around the Tri State and

1:07:08

elsewhere, they might frown upon that. Bob first is Swondian we're talking about

1:07:13

here. Oh jeez, that's harsh. I'm thinking you're just this is being

1:07:17

is this fabrication? You're not really serving cat and dog in Batesville, are

1:07:20

you really? I mean, it's not, it's not. I it's not

1:07:26

on the menu, like if I if I opened the menu, what doesn't

1:07:29

say like barbecue cat on the menu? No? No, not at all.

1:07:32

No no. So, so you're not really doing it or you're not

1:07:36

telling people you're doing it until you're now you've told me, which then makes

1:07:41

me feel like I need to tell everyone. You tell them all you want.

1:07:45

It's the same thing with everybody else. I mean, you go down Chinese restaurant down the street. I mean, you know they got cat and

1:07:49

dog there too. No, no, no, everything does not taste like

1:07:55

I find I think I think he's making that up. I would hope to

1:07:58

God that. I think they have to tell you that that's the case.

1:08:00

And I don't think that'd be allowed. Mistakes. I could be wrong. I think Bob's having some fun. And we went along for the ride for

1:08:05

a little while. Quickly it's Columbus and Mike. What's going on? You

1:08:10

don't have a lot of time, but what you got he's serving? Yeah,

1:08:13

I first, Yeah, the last caller. I think he's put you

1:08:16

on. Yeah, I think so. I hope so. Yeah, Yeah,

1:08:19

I hope so too. But yeah, no, it's for horses.

1:08:26

Taim with dogs and cats. I'd adopt one as a pet. I have

1:08:28

two dogs now. But yeah, it's it's the same thing. It.

1:08:32

I mean, I'll eat fish and chicken, beef, I don't eat much

1:08:35

at all. Pork I won't eat. But and when I lived in Vegas

1:08:41

back in the day, I used to go out and in the desert every

1:08:45

chance I got, you know, on a day off, sometimes every week,

1:08:47

and just feed the horses some carrots and and all that, so you

1:08:51

know it's it's a good, good concept. You know that they're that they're

1:08:56

adopting him out. But yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't adopt one to

1:08:59

eat a pet. Yeah, I got you, Mike. I appreciate the

1:09:01

call. We're short on time, but that's all we needed. Thank you.

1:09:04

I appreciate you being a part of the show. I think a lot of people would prefer like to have them adopted rather they think they're going to

1:09:09

be sold to be processed. But you know, it is what it is.

1:09:12

As they say, another hour to go. After eleven o'clock report,

1:09:15

Whitney Harris has it more sterling coming back on the whole of the Red. Seven hundred WLW, Cincinnat point on some hoops action, a little bit,

1:09:23

Red's back out of tomorrow Game two, one hundred and sixty two Great American

1:09:26

Ball Park Nationals in town, looking to get it on right here, seven

1:09:30

hundred WLW back on Sunday, Short show, tiny show, but I'm I'm

1:09:36

gonna be here after ken Brew good a half hour like serious, full on

1:09:43

NonStop content. Then to the inside pitch gets you ready to set it up.

1:09:45

My first one come Sunday for this twenty four season, looking forward to

1:09:50

it. Maybe by the Reds could be going not just for a series sweep,

1:09:54

could be going for like a sweep sweep. We'll see exactly how it

1:09:58

goes here. Now, some weird stuff, you know, This ties in

1:10:02

I think to something I wanted to get into. But it's kind of weird,

1:10:08

which is really maybe not all that surprising. First headline, because I

1:10:12

like research studies, I like pole questions. I don't really get survey personally

1:10:16

very often. It could be because yeah, I don't know, like you

1:10:20

know, people are home phones. Maybe you know you get notifications to spam

1:10:25

call on your phone. You're not going to pick it up. I mean,

1:10:27

why would you want to waste your time? But there are people who

1:10:30

somehow get to answer some pole questions. Two hundred adults here in the US

1:10:35

survey, eighty four percent of us apparently, they say or of the belief

1:10:42

that karma is a real thing, that charmatic retribution that I often bring up,

1:10:47

and I think, to a certain extent, I do believe also,

1:10:50

but I think sometimes we we help feed that fire, if you will.

1:10:56

But eighty four percent believe good deeds and those that aren't so good can come

1:11:01

back around and either bring us something good in return for doing something good.

1:11:08

My experience is that sometimes I've gone out of my way trying to do the

1:11:12

right thing. It's turned out to be the wrong thing, and charmatically,

1:11:15

I have been smacked in the junk, punched in the throat, and kicked

1:11:18

to the curb, all because I've tried to do good and it's turned out

1:11:23

that I should sometimes have just not been involved. But maybe it's me because

1:11:27

I'm schlep rock. Okay, it doesn't always happen that way. Eighty four

1:11:31

percent of Americans say they actively try to pay it forward when it comes to

1:11:36

acts of kindness. You know I'll do that. You know, you go

1:11:41

into a grocery store. I know it's not a big thing, right,

1:11:44

I mean, I try to help out like the free store, food bank. I try to help out my neighbors. Try to be a good neighbor,

1:11:48

try to be a good person. Period. That's been my resolution.

1:11:51

I've been told it's a lazy resolution the last couple of years, but it's

1:11:56

all I've got. I'm trying to be a better person. That being said,

1:12:02

this research study two thousand Americans say the bad karma also exist. So

1:12:09

in other words, you cut somebody off in traffic, you cut in front

1:12:13

of them, or whatever else, it can come back around and give you

1:12:18

bad karma, bad retribution. In return, maybe you lose something. Twenty

1:12:24

seven percent believe that, like you can lose something, you can have arguments

1:12:28

with others, the so called bad vibes contributing to bad relationship situations or whatever

1:12:33

else that sort of goes along with that. They say, paying it forward,

1:12:38

treating people that you care about good, treating them well, I should

1:12:42

say, you know, and something special, being generous, like I try

1:12:45

to tip well, right. I mean I'm not like over the top crazy

1:12:49

tipper or whatever, but I mean I respect being served in the hard work

1:12:55

that it is in the service industry and try to just show some love when

1:12:58

I'm treated, right. I think that's basic generally speaking. I've never thought

1:13:01

that it comes back around for good or bad, but apparently forty eight percent

1:13:05

of people believe that's the case, and they give generous tips because they think

1:13:09

it's gonna hurt them if they don't. I guess, helping out a neighbor,

1:13:14

caring groceries, shoveling, snow. Forty six percent say that they do

1:13:18

that because nothing necessarily because they feel it's the right thing to do, but

1:13:21

because they think it comes back around. I try to do it because I

1:13:25

think it's just the right thing to do. I try to do it because

1:13:28

I think it's what I would hope someone would do for me, or for

1:13:30

my mother if she were around and needed help or something along those lines.

1:13:32

And it gets me thinking sometimes. But sometimes you put yourself out there and

1:13:39

bad things happen too. I'm wondering, do you believe in karma? Do

1:13:43

you believe that if you do something good, something good will come back around?

1:13:46

And in the opposite of that, if you are a jerk, if

1:13:50

you treat people poorly, if you walk out on a check, if you

1:13:55

don't tip well, if you got a bad attitude to give somebody a scowl,

1:14:00

whatever it is, give then that you know, a three fingered salute, whatever it is, at one time or another, and you think,

1:14:06

is this coming back to hurt me later? It seems to me my observation

1:14:12

or hallucination in some cases is that there are some people, for whatever reason,

1:14:15

they don't have a conscience, They couldn't care less and they just go

1:14:19

through their life leaving other people in their wake, and in a lot of

1:14:24

cases it seems that there is no retribution charmatically, and I think, well,

1:14:28

I wish I could be that way, But I think I was raised

1:14:31

better. Perhaps I don't know. Maybe I like to think I was raised

1:14:34

right. Five one to three, seven, four, nine, seven,

1:14:38

eight hundred the Big One talk back the iHeartRadio app. Just click on that

1:14:41

microphone. I'm also at Stirling Radio one X or Twitter call it whatever you

1:14:45

want. You can get there either way. I try to do the right

1:14:49

thing because it's the right thing, right. I mean, I guess they

1:14:54

say that you can tell that one's true character is when no one's looking,

1:14:57

When no one's around, what they do, you know, Like if you're

1:15:01

walking your dog and there's no one around, do you pick up stuff?

1:15:05

Do you grab that crap bag and pick it up? Or do you leave

1:15:09

it in your neighbor's yard? I pick it up. That's the kind of

1:15:12

man I am, not because I think carmatically it's gonna end up that like

1:15:15

some big monster great Dane dog is gonna leave like the you know, I

1:15:19

don't know, a Chavette sized pile of stuff in my front yard if I

1:15:24

don't clean my dog stuff up around the block. But I just figure I

1:15:29

don't want it in my yard. I'm not gonna leave it in your yard. It just seems like the right thing to do. I try to be

1:15:33

courteous and traffic, not because I think it's gonna come back and help me.

1:15:36

It'd be nice if someone did me as solid sometimes, but I just

1:15:40

figure it's the right thing to do. When do you do the right thing

1:15:45

compared to being like somebody who does the wrong thing, Like if you're in

1:15:48

traffic situation, I'll wave a couple people out and some At some point I

1:15:53

have to decide I'm not letting any more people out of that driveway. Is

1:15:58

the light's about to turn green, I'm not going to miss the light again

1:16:00

because I'm being nice to somebody who's leaving the you know, the shopping center

1:16:04

to my right, or cutting across traffic to turn out of the strip shop

1:16:09

a deal on the other side of the road. I'll let a couple people,

1:16:13

and then I gotta get all my way to do what I gotta do

1:16:15

right. And I've had it happen with the people in front of you to

1:16:18

let people out, let people out, let people out, and then I

1:16:21

get screwed behind them in the light, and I'm like, how is this

1:16:25

fair to me? But you can't maybe get bitter and angry about stuff,

1:16:30

but we certainly try five one, three, seven, four, nine hundred

1:16:33

the big one. Do you believe, as eighty four percent of Americans do

1:16:36

in this survey anyway, that charmatic justice is a legit thing. If you

1:16:43

do good, you'll get good in return, and if you do bad,

1:16:45

it'll come back, and that retribution will smack you in the forehead and show

1:16:50

you where you've been wrong. I don't know if I've witnessed it fully,

1:16:57

but on occasion it's happened, I tell you, and I've had friends tell

1:17:01

me that I am like Schleppbrack, that I will, in fact tried to

1:17:06

do the right thing, And it's happened numerous times. You know, you

1:17:10

try to help somebody at the side of the road, you know they got

1:17:13

a problem with their vehicle or whatever else. Then it turns into like something

1:17:15

way more and you're like, nah, I did not mean to be a

1:17:18

part of this. I should have called a tow truck or a wrecker for

1:17:21

them. It's not my problem. Why am I involved? This is not

1:17:25

my issue. It's just one of those things that are out there. Five

1:17:29

one, three, seven, four, eight hundred, the big one. You can get interactive that way too. Some other stuff I wanted to talk

1:17:34

upon is this, and I mentioned it earlier, and I dug a little

1:17:38

deeper, didn't have to dig far. The Francis Scott Key Bridge, Baltimore,

1:17:44

the harbor there hit by that cargo container ship fell into the water.

1:17:49

People lost their lives, people injured. The cleanup's going to take some serious

1:17:54

amounts of time. People are now saying that they think the new rebuilt bridge

1:17:58

when it gets there should not be called Francis scott Key again, but it

1:18:01

should be called something just about anything else, because Francis scott Key was a

1:18:06

slave owner. Now it's true, star spangled banner is attributed to Francis scott

1:18:15

Key wrote it. We hold it dearer and nearer to our hearts. But

1:18:19

as a guy who owned slaves, New Bridge, new name, do you

1:18:24

buy that? A great story in the root from Wayne Washington talking about that

1:18:29

very thing, And a couple other people send me some stuff telling me too they think it was time. Is this you know, people being hyper sensitive?

1:18:35

Or do you think, well the bridge fell, why not you wouldn't

1:18:38

have changed it? Maybe while I was standing, maybe they should have.

1:18:41

But now that it's fallen and going to be rebuilt, is it time to

1:18:45

say thank you? Francis Scott Key? We appreciate the song, but no more bridges for you because you own slaves. Maybe five point three some ninety

1:18:53

eight hundred, the Big One on seventy five right about now? How I

1:18:55

hope your hands free? What's up? How you're sterling on the Big One?

1:19:00

Any how you doing? I'm getting confused on the topic. Are we talking about the Star Spangled banner now? Or you can do either one?

1:19:05

You're the boss, you called, It's up to you. Well, I

1:19:10

think that's why they talked about changing the uh star Spangled banner, not having

1:19:15

that as the national song. But yeah, I also wanted to I also

1:19:18

wanted to comment on as far as doing things wrong, I think a lot

1:19:23

of it is age related. You know, when I was a kid,

1:19:26

you know you're stink in the movies, you run red light, you do

1:19:29

this, you know you may do a little shoplift thing. But I think

1:19:32

as you get older, You're worry about consequences. You know, you don't

1:19:36

want to go to jail, you don't, you know, so I think

1:19:39

your conscious kind of gets developed. I'm not sure when you're eleven, twelve,

1:19:44

thirteen, fourteen, if you have that developed of a conscience. I

1:19:46

don't know how it was with you, but it took me, you know,

1:19:50

a long time to reach, you know, the maturation point to where

1:19:55

you know now, I feel I got a full conscience, So I don't

1:19:58

know if I'm just a social path no reformed maybe right is what you're saying,

1:20:04

or reformed. So I don't know. You were talking about how you

1:20:09

know you felt like I don't know if you've always felt the same way you

1:20:12

do now as far as uh, you know, the conscious or do you

1:20:15

think that you know, it developed a little bit later. I think it

1:20:18

for you. I think it probably over time you get experience and you sort

1:20:24

of figure you know, and maybe you need to be better. I mean

1:20:26

mom was drilling it into my head or beating me with into my head.

1:20:29

I don't know, but it was one of those things that I just try

1:20:31

to treat people as i'd hope to be treated. But I'm sure there are

1:20:34

times now even where I may be maybe not as considered as I could or

1:20:40

should be. Sometimes it's just because I'm oblivious and just like an idiot,

1:20:44

not so much with delivered intent. But I get what you're saying. Over time, I would think that we all try to get better or just become

1:20:49

better just with life, right, right, you want to self factualize or

1:20:54

you want to try and you know, get to your your greatest point.

1:20:58

But when I was growing up, it was old and rule, you know,

1:21:00

do onto others. But yeah, if they could drill it in you

1:21:03

as much as you want. But if you're you know, kind of a

1:21:05

smart alec nine year old kid, you know it's it's going in one ear

1:21:11

and out the other, and you get a few spankings, and you know,

1:21:14

I don't know, maybe they'd beat some sense into you, but I know you're not supposed to say that now. Like my mom would want to

1:21:18

like lecture me and then want me to get the switch, and I'm like,

1:21:21

can we just get to the beating. I don't need the lecture,

1:21:25

and she's like, no, I want you to understand, and I want

1:21:27

you to tell me why you messed up and what you were thinking, and

1:21:29

I'm like, oh really, I mean you want me to break it down. I think that that might have been where it came from, as far

1:21:33

as that golden rule mindset that I've got too. How I appreciate the comment.

1:21:36

Thank you for being a part of the show. I'm a big fan

1:21:41

of yours. I know I was gonna say happy Passover, but not happy

1:21:45

Easter, but happy Easter too. Also, well, I appreciate it, man. I love all the holidays and I take them all in absolutely.

1:21:50

How, thank you, I appreciate it. To Springfield and Ken, what

1:21:54

about carmatic retribution? Did do you believe in it, whether you do good

1:21:58

or do bad, that it comes back around pays the gift in return one

1:22:00

way or the other. Well, my logical mind says no, but my

1:22:04

heart says yes. And real quick. I don't know if you remember me.

1:22:09

You probably don't. I was one of your students when you were at

1:22:13

a professor at Wright State. Well long time ago, that is, and

1:22:19

professor is a stretch. Well the college radio station, well that might be

1:22:26

yeah, at the college radio station. And in fact, I was one

1:22:30

of the fraternities you did uh some MCing for Somber Beta pie. Yeah,

1:22:38

yeah, absolutely, you guys got a new basketball coach. Wait a minute,

1:22:41

you got a new We got a new basketball coach at Wright State too,

1:22:43

Yes, we do. Yeah, mister Naggy went to what Southern Illinois

1:22:46

I think in the Missouri Valley Conference, which is is that a bump up

1:22:49

for him? Do you think I don't really keep up on the basketball from

1:22:55

Right State so much? So you're you're kind of I'm kind of clueless on

1:22:59

that. That's all right, I understand completely, So there you go. Well, but you were talking about karma and I wanted to. I don't

1:23:05

know if you've heard the theory of the shopping cart. No, the shopping

1:23:09

cart is the ultimate test of what kind of a person you are. Because

1:23:15

you take the shopping cart, nobody is making you put the shopping cart back.

1:23:19

There is no punishment for not putting the shopping cart back, right,

1:23:24

But if you put the shopping cart back, it's kind of a judge of

1:23:29

your character because nobody tells you you have to. And you know, I

1:23:34

believe in karma with my heart, but my head, I don't know,

1:23:41

man, it just it's not logical. No, I got you got to

1:23:45

just sort of let go of I guess the logic of it. You let

1:23:48

go logic, because I do feel that way when I do things for other

1:23:51

people, I feel like the universe is gonna and I think that's just human

1:23:56

nature. I think so. I think you're probably right Ken being a part

1:24:00

of the show, and maybe we'll see at one of those reunions at the right state radio station w w sho oh oh, oh, my gosh.

1:24:06

I would absolutely go to one of those. I didn't spend a whole lot

1:24:10

of time there, but what I did was great mine too. I think

1:24:13

I spent too much time and then I ended up here somehow. Who knew?

1:24:15

Ken? Take care of yourself, man, Thank you so much to

1:24:17

you. You've been on there. Oh my gosh. I remember the first

1:24:20

time I heard you was like what fifteen years ago? Oh yeah, I

1:24:25

was working on Channel Z and then Kiss FM and then the mcconnellson. No

1:24:29

I mean when I heard you, No, I don't hear no. No,

1:24:32

Yeah, that's absolutely yeah. I was. I grew up on that

1:24:35

radio station too. I was just a hatchling still in school, so yeah,

1:24:40

absolutely, yeah, this is a lot remember baseball. I would work

1:24:44

there overnights. I go to Wright state, I take a shower, sleep

1:24:46

at the radio station, or go to and go to the gym, and

1:24:49

then I get up into a radio show at the college station and then go

1:24:53

to class. Maybe I should have gone to more classes and then you would

1:24:59

teach a class. Yeah, that correct. At some point they asked me to do that, which was crazy, but yeah it was hopefully hopefully I

1:25:04

wasn't too annoying. So well you were. You were my communications professor.

1:25:10

There you go, that's that's crazy. Sick. Ken. Take care of

1:25:13

yourself, man. I appreciate you, you too, man, and good

1:25:15

hearing you Man, you too. I appreciate you being a part of the show. Short on Time, Quick Break, Comeback. I'm not done yet.

Eleven thirty reports Sooner than Later with Whitney Harris, Kevin Carr talking to

1:25:24

Godzilla and King Kong and more to do on a Friday night Sterling seven hundred

1:25:28

WLW. Is there a special time you like to listen to Scoonsloan. I

1:25:32

like to listen while I'm eating waffles. Yeah, it sounds like fun.

1:25:36

I listened when I'm feeling down. Sloaney always parks me up and now we

1:25:40

tell k I like to listen when I'm painting my nails. I never would

1:25:43

have thought of that. I like to listen while I'm fishing. Nope,

1:25:45

I might try that. I always listened during my pelvic exam me too.

1:25:48

I guess anytime is the right time for Sloaney. That's what we've been saying.

1:25:53

Monday morning at nine on seven hundred WLW, and check out his podcast

1:25:58

on the free iHeartRadio app. I life's a constant swirl of shopping, groceries,

1:26:01

clothes, gifts, the occasional self care splurge, you know how it

1:26:04

is. That's why you should get the drop app. You know, that's

1:26:08

a great idea. A neighbor some years ago who did not call or did

1:26:12

not pay attention to where they had marked the danger of underground lines and they

1:26:16

got the backco out and started digging. It was a bad day. So

1:26:20

yeah, it's always good to make that call and get that stuff marked.

1:26:25

He was hating it for a little while. Sterling hanging out moment away from

1:26:28

your eleven thirty report, Whitney Harris coming up with news Kevin Carr on the

1:26:30

other side talking, that's the baby Godzilla. I think Godzilla and King Kong

1:26:35

getting at it. It's Godzilla, King Kong, Kevin Carr after the News

1:26:42

Friday night, Sterling seven hundred Wow the News, the Red Eye Radio to

1:26:48

follow. I'll be back on Sunday afternoon following ken Brew with Donna d I

1:26:53

believe getting ready for retch baseball. But they play again tomorrow, game two

1:26:58

of this twenty twenty four campaign, Hunter Green on the Hill. He'll get

1:27:01

the start. Patrick Corbyn on for the national snow starting lineups as of yet,

1:27:05

hopefully they'll get to it. And already maybe thinking about saving some runs

1:27:12

in the run bank, which when I was a little sterling, a little

1:27:14

kid, I remember going to the Old Riverfront with my uncle Manny and he'd be like, they need to put those extra runs in the run bank.

1:27:18

And I was like, what is that. I've never heard of this run

1:27:21

bank, so it was like going snipe hunting. So I was trying to

1:27:25

figure out as a little kid, what is this. I remember one to

1:27:28

the library, what is the run bank? It's nothing, but the idea

1:27:30

is that if you have extra runs beyond what's needed to beat your opponent,

1:27:34

you could just storm them away like in a savings account, then pull them

1:27:38

out when you need them, but I don't think that's really how it works.

1:27:42

Unfortunately, otherwise they'd have a few win storage after the Thursday's opening day

1:27:46

win. But you know, you get what you can. Mister al Montas

1:27:49

got his first win as Red now one or no with the zero zero zero

1:27:55

ra which is kind of nice, and mister Suitor getting himself, which is

1:28:00

nicer. Early. Yeah, that's how that played out. So we'll see what happens tomorrow. Four to ten. First pitch right here, seven hundred

1:28:05

WLW here. Here's updates on some scores and some hoops. You might have

1:28:10

heard the madness of marches upon us. Marquette got beat by North Carolina State

1:28:15

NC State, surprising the world. There's always at least one of those that

1:28:18

they moved on to the Elite eight. Purdue got by Gonzaga Creighton in Tennessee

1:28:24

right now in the second half, with about five minutes and change left,

1:28:27

sixty five fifty nine. It's the Valls leading Creighton. Taron Johnson pretty happy,

1:28:32

I would imagine at this point. So it was Tim McGee, he's

1:28:35

a Vall former Bengal Houston and the Dukes getting at it. Forty eight is

1:28:41

what Houston has Yeah, fifty two. It was a four and a half,

1:28:45

I think is what we do. Yeah, fifty two to forty eight, Duke leading with two forty seven left in the second half in that South

1:28:51

Regional semi finals. So that's all going on. Here's some stuff that's weird

1:28:56

in the news, and I don't know what it is about men. Apparently

1:29:00

we are creepy and weasily and I don't know what this is. Two stories

1:29:04

that just in the last couple of days Anderson High School. The story about

1:29:09

the student that apparently has now been accused of hiding video recording equipment of phone

1:29:15

some type of device to record. It was a cell phone in the bathroom

1:29:20

vent to record. I guess whatever was going on in the vicinity creepy,

1:29:27

weird, uncomfortable, weasley, inappropriate and probably needs some serious therapy and figure

1:29:33

out how to live with the rest of us in the big sandbox of life.

1:29:36

And then a story tonight saw WLWT have this Channel five headline man accused

1:29:42

of secretly photographing women in the Fairfield Township walmart. Apparently he was just walking

1:29:48

around with the phone allegedly, and this was made the news here in the

1:29:53

last day or so. But this was from Wednesday night, and apparently it

1:29:57

had his pants open, like he had the zipper down, just walking around

1:30:01

with the camera like, you know, following filming videoing random women or whatever.

1:30:09

Creepy Weasley uncomfortable. There's all kinds of wrong about that too. I

1:30:14

don't know where that seems like a good idea. I don't know when that seems like a good idea. And I think that's probably one step beyond what

1:30:19

I've had happened twice when I've been getting gas and I've gone in like to

1:30:26

the convenience store portion, you know, instead of just like paying at the

1:30:29

pump, I went into like I don't know, get it, like a candy bar or a cup of coffee or whatever. And I kid you not.

1:30:33

I talked about it here. It's been a year or more ago. Now. I was there and all of a sudden there were sounds of like

1:30:41

sex and it was a porn So there was a guy in line, and

1:30:45

it's a long line. There's a whole bunch of us and some dude apparently

1:30:47

had no understanding of where he was and what he was doing. Apparently he

1:30:50

had been in his car watching porn on his handheld device, thankfully. The

1:30:58

other hand was not doing what. Maybe it was the car, I don't

1:31:00

know, and it was loud, he didn't have earbuds in. Sound was

1:31:05

blaring, and he's just waiting in line watching the porn. I don't know

1:31:10

when that seems appropriate. I don't know why that seems appropriate, but clearly

1:31:15

these people are not thinking correctly. I was uncomfortable. I'm not a woman.

1:31:19

I was not intimidated. I was creeped out just the same. I

1:31:24

don't understand it. I suppose if we understood the dysfunction and the weirdness,

1:31:29

maybe we would have less of a problem with it. But either way,

1:31:31

that's nice to know that there's some creepy bastards out there just like that.

1:31:35

So just be aware, and you know, we'll keep you on top of

1:31:40

it. Whinney Harris has news. He's got the Midnight Report red Eye Radio

1:31:43

1:32:11

News Radio seven hundred WLW Cincinnati. An appeal in a case involving Donald Trump.

1:32:18

I'm Whitney Harris breaking now. The former president, along with some of

1:32:24

his co defendants, are appealing the court decision that allowed the Fulton County District

1:32:28

Attorney to remain on the Georgia state election interference case. Dave Packer has the

1:32:33

details. The motion from former President Trump and others to the Georgia Court of

1:32:38

Appeals argues that Judge Scott McAfee aired as a matter of law by not requiring

1:32:43

dismissal and DA Fannie Willis's disqualification, arguing that even though Special Prosecutor Nathan Wade

1:32:48

had resigned, the appearance of impropriety should in and of itself be grounds for

1:32:53

Willis and her entire office's dismissal. The Appeals court now has forty five days

1:32:58

to decide whether or not to take up that appeal. Trump's co defendants include

1:33:00

Mike Roman Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and Jeffrey Clark, and now the

1:33:06

latest forecast from our friends over at Channel nine. In the forecast, as

1:33:11

we head to our Saturday daybreak, we're clouding up, leading to a few

1:33:15

showers, a morning low of fifty degrees. The rest of our Saturday,

1:33:18

a slight chance of rain through the day, a high at seventy. At

1:33:23

night, a few showers likely in a low of forty eight. Then Sunday,

1:33:27

chance of rain early and rain and storms likely at night. My highest

1:33:53

Dorman is going on trial in July for allegedly killing his three sons last June.

1:33:58

Claremont County prosecutors want they to go to the locations where the killings allegedly

1:34:01

occurred. The judge will file soon on that motion. Dorman is facing twenty

1:34:06

counts. The judge has already thrown out everything that Dorman told deputies when they

1:34:11

arrested him and what he said during the custodial interview. The Justice Dorman's miranda

1:34:15

rights were violated because he asked for a lawyer twice and was not provided one.

they find it in the way Joe Lieberman lived his life. Friend said history

1:35:15
