Chris: [00:00:00] Donald Trump endorsed Mike DeWine final evening, sort of odd given how onerous Trump labored in opposition to DeWine earlier within the major, it’s a pressure state of affairs, however you get the sensation that Donald Trump simply needs to say. He backed a winner and DeWine seems like he’ll be the clear winner as we’ll be speaking about shortly.
Con right this moment in Ohio. It’s the information podcast dialogue from cleveland.com and the plain vendor. I’m Chris Quinn. I’m right here with Lisa Garvin, Lela Tosi and Laura Johnston and Lisa Europe. First, how far behind governor Mike DeWine is his democratic challenger. NA Whaley within the cash recreation is that they attain the ultimate two months of their campaigns.
Lisa: Nicely, actually, Mike Dwayne doesn’t want Trump’s assist, apparently as a result of he’s obtained greater than twice as a lot cash, um, than his democratic com uh, challenger NA whale. He’s obtained 14.1 million. He’s had that since 2015, he raised [00:01:00] one and a half million {dollars} final month, alone that to Nan whale, she’s obtained 6.3 million as of the tip of August.
And she or he solely raised about 910,000. Within the month of August, that is really whale has really raised lower than any democratic governor nominee since 2006, that may be Ted Strickland. Um, and Richard Cordray within the final gubernatorial election, the democratic challenger there, he raised 10.8 million by September sixth of you already know, of 2018 throughout his marketing campaign.
Um, DeWine additionally obtained, you already know, hundred. Hundreds of {dollars} in TV assault advertisements from the Republican governor’s affiliation, however he’ll begin operating his first common election advert tomorrow. So not an assault advert, only a I’m an ideal governor, please reelect me advert. Um, N Whaley has been operating 15 second advertisements in the previous couple of weeks.
I’ve seen a number of of them. She’s desperately making an attempt to construct identify recogni. Let’s
Chris: chew on this one a bit bit, cuz I, I believe [00:02:00] the place we stand right this moment, would’ve been unfathomable 9 months in the past. That in the event you suppose again to when ed Fitzgerald sort of a joke candidate ran in opposition to John Kasick, he didn’t have numerous ammunition, however NA Whaley has a ton of ammunition that she may use successfully.
Mike DeWine didn’t uphold his oath to. The structure within the gerrymandering battle. Mike DeWine appointed the man to the top of the utilities fee who was on the heart or the bribery scandal. I imply, you might have the utility saying, we gave him bribes tens of millions of {dollars} in bribes. Mike Dewin signed the heartbeat.
Invoice Mike DeWine walked professing whereas standing subsequent to whale in Dayton, after a mass taking pictures, to be a, a standard sense. Gun man has signed each gun invoice. There’s 4 issues that she has that she may use to say, Hey, Ohios this man. Isn’t the great man you suppose he’s? And she or he’s not doing it. It’s simply not there.
[00:03:00] She didn’t use the Supreme courtroom abortion ruling to essentially rally folks to, to, to her facet. And so right here we sit, you’re speaking in regards to the cash they raised. I hear that the cash within the financial institution it’s much more lopsided that she’s just about empty. She’s spent all of it and he’s obtained tons. I simply, this was a, a marketing campaign you thought would have some actual vigor and.
What’s she doing?
Lisa: I, she has no fireplace in her stomach. I imply, and I’ve see, I watch, you already know, night information. So I all the time see the political advertisements and she or he’s sort of leaning on these, you already know, blue collar bonafides, you already know, sort of nearly, it seems like she’s making an attempt to reflect Tim Ryan. Oh, I’m this, you already know, blue collar, you already know, fundamental lady, you already know, from this city in Ohio and there’s not a whiff of assault or something in opposition to Dewin in any respect in her advertisements.
I,
Chris: yeah, I it’s one which I, it, I simply am amazed as a result of there was a capability right here to, to land some blows. And it’s been just about an invisible marketing campaign. I, in the event you had been [00:04:00] a, a, a marketing campaign strategist, proper? You’d you’d’ve beloved to have this marketing campaign as a result of Mike DeWine has these vulnerabilities, however Ohio’s not listening to about these in any respect.
In the meantime, you’re proper. Tim, Ryan is on the market urgent the flesh, speaking to a number of folks. He made a method. The middle, cuz he’s obtained the far left. It is a battle for the middle and he’s been very efficient. The, the distinction between these two, these two campaigns is fairly astounding, but it surely’s, it’s a disgrace as a result of I believe when folks go to the polls, they’re not gonna have a lot of a selection.
They’re gonna pull the levers for the wine as a result of they’re, if she will be able to’t run a marketing campaign, how’s she gonna run the. The state of Ohio, I suppose the one factor, and we talked about this beforehand, there was a giant improve in ladies registering to vote. And so if abortion is a telltale difficulty, perhaps, perhaps Whaley you’ll get some assist.
I don’t know. It’s, uh, it’s only a shock that that is the place we stand. No cash, no fireplace within the stomach. [00:05:00] No give attention to what are the essential points to Ohio.
Lisa: She’s not likely drawing any democratic cash. I imply, both in state or out of state, it looks like fundraisers are specializing in the Ryan Vance Senate race as a substitute of the governor race.
As a result of as a PolySci professor, Tom Sutton at Baldwin Wallace college says, you already know, whale has a very slim likelihood to win. And it will depend on democratic turnout and people who had been voting for reproductive free freedom.
Chris: Yeah, effectively, that, that could possibly be the wild card. Publics are afraid of that throughout the nation it’s right this moment in Ohio.
So Laura, which Cleveland sports activities workforce is the primary to get authorised, to run a sports activities e book. And what different Cleveland companies obtain the nod on Wednesday?
Laura: The Browns. So we’re nonetheless ready on the calves and the guardians, however these are in all probability coming. The Ohio on line casino management fee has to really hear and approve all of the functions.
To allow them to’t rubber stamp every thing in a day, however the below the, the way in which that the, uh, modification was [00:06:00] worded, uh, they need to have the ability to get them, um, below state regulation. So. Uh, Jack on line casino and Jack fizzled down really obtained them as effectively. That had been the primary three in better Cleveland, um, elsewhere within the state Columbus crew Murfield village golf membership in Dublin, Cincinnati reds, Hollywood on line casino, and Toledo and Hollywood Mahoney valley racing close to Youngstown.
Um, to date 22 companies have utilized for the cell sports activities betting licenses, 26 for the sports activities.
Chris: Yeah, the manufacturers may use the assistance. I believe primarily based on what we’re listening to from readers, they’re going to be shedding some income primarily based on the Deshaun Watson, that that controversy continues to have legs. Look, we will see it within the visitors.
That is the primary interval heading into the season that we haven’t seen the Browns bump. We all the time see folks have simply. Peeled away. It’ll be attention-grabbing to see whether or not they come again because the season begins. So the rounds can use the cash, uh, not stunning that they had been the primary in and this [00:07:00] permits them mainly to, to take bets from folks they’re, it’s just like the authorized model of the bookie.
Proper?
Laura: Proper. Precisely. It is a bodily area that they’ll put of their stadium the place folks could make sports activities bets. And so the, the time period. E-book is complicated to me, cuz it, it feels like try to be opening a e book, however it is a bodily location. Um, there’s a pair others which have utilized the downtown Harry Buffalo, uh, and Raven crest LLC needs them.
And there’s solely, you may get 5 in Cuyahoga, Franklin and Hamilton counties. Every of these, you get 40 statewide. So, um, the guardians and the calves are purported to get it, however I’m with you, Chris. I used to be simply speaking. To people on the soccer match over the weekend, my youngsters had been at and I, and so they, they mentioned they weren’t actually being attentive to the Browns and it doesn’t, uh, shock them that our visitors is down due to Deshaun Watson.
So perhaps the Browns are gonna be like, come on in mattress for whoever you need. You don’t even have to love the Browns
Chris: look, I, I might’ve thought it not possible. To truly drive away Browns followers, cuz we all know it’s been the [00:08:00] most important a part of our viewers for years. And yearly at the moment of the 12 months, you see the massive bump, however what they did with Deshaun Watson, and now they’re internet hosting a fundraiser for JD Vance, which is compounding it for half the viewers.
That’s a white, what are you doing? I don’t get why they’re doing that. They’re driving away the, the liberal facet of their viewers, however they’ve pushed ‘em away. I imply, individuals are indignant. We. We obtained an electronic mail yesterday that our sports activities supervisor, Dave Campbell shared saying, you already know, I, I I’ve been with him all my life.
I wore their jerseys. I’ve all the time been there. However then to Sean Watson and now JD Vance I’m finished. They by no means get one other dime. I’m not gonna spend one other minute being attentive to them. Mm-hmm we will see it. It’s tangible there, there’s. It’s there, the one query is as video games begin this weekend, precisely.
Individuals fall again into their fall habits. They sit on their couch, they watch the sport and solely time will, and we’ve
Lisa: obtained a barn burner for the primary recreation. I imply, we’re taking part in, was it the Panthers who’ve baker Mayfield now? So yeah, who’s not gonna [00:09:00] be watching that recreation.
Chris: I don’t know. I, I, Lisa, I I’m not. I by no means would’ve suspected we might be on the place we are actually with that, with that anger and tangible drop within the variety of folks paying consideration.
I, I, I ponder if anyone listening would know the reply to that is the sports activities e book nomenclature, does that come from the previous days of bookies the place they’d stroll round with the little pocket book, with all their bets penciled in, and that, that simply has moved into the mainstream. Oh, I’m positive we Don know clearly, however perhaps somebody’s listening does.
Yeah. And
Laura: I guess we all know the
Chris: folks to ask. Yeah, it’d be attention-grabbing if that’s the place it got here from. Okay. I, we, we do anticipate the calves. The guardians will get it as a result of the regulation was written in such a solution to give it to them and, and assist enhance them. And the guardians may actually use it as a result of they’re one of many smallest market groups on the market.
It’s wonderful that they handle to compete with the {dollars} they’ve. So getting ‘em a number of extra bucks, perhaps they’ll go purchase a hitter it’s right this moment in Ohio. The rights are the dearth of [00:10:00] rights for cell dwelling park tenants is getting little bit of consideration of late with a park on lake Erie, just lately altering arms.
And now residents in two lake county parks are suing the businesses, managing them lava earlier than we get to what they allege we should always point out in that lake Erie park that we mentioned final week, we should always have talked about {that a} third of the tenants there have stopped paying lease to the brand new proprietor, which adjustments the dynamic there a bit.
Leila: Yeah, that does. And, and I believe we’ll observe that too. That’s, um, that’s an essential issue that, uh, that we’ll be reporting on as effectively. That, that the, uh, uh, the Western reserve says that, that, that, {that a} third of the tenants, uh, have been defaulting on their lease since they took over that property in December.
So. You’re proper. That does change the dynamic. And so we gained’t, we gained’t, uh, fail to report that that’s coming, however on this case, uh, what you’ve been describing, the authorized support society of better Cleveland and the Kingsville primarily based Latino advocacy group, [00:11:00] H O L a filed lawsuits in opposition to these two different corporations that function cell dwelling parks in Perry and Paynesville.
On behalf of residents who say that they’ve been subjected to essentially harmful dwelling situations and, and utility worth, gouging and discriminatory habits in opposition to Mexican immigrants and the businesses are, are Jones. Property’s Perry and Jones property’s fairground. Though the go well with additionally names, a personal utility submetering firm referred to as 5 star metering.
The vast majority of the 700 residents in these parks are Mexican immigrants. And so they say they’ve been victims of focused harassment and intimidation. The grievance says that the residents are charged double what they need to be for water and sewer utilities and that their water traces have flooded quite a few occasions.
Leaving uncooked sewage everywhere. They even mentioned {that a} fireplace just lately broke out and firefighters found that there have been no water pumps, which is simply unfathomable. So they are saying white residents have [00:12:00] longer grace intervals to pay their payments. And that administration continuously make derogatory remarks about them or threaten to name immigration in the event that they report them to authorities.
Um, even even the. Mentioned throughout a information convention that whereas she was speaking to residents in regards to the issues that they’re experiencing, a property supervisor approached her and threatened to have her arrested. So simply fairly horrible situations, hoping that there’s some justice on the opposite facet of this case for these households.
Chris: Yeah, it, it, however that is a type of distinctive conditions the place you personal the, the fabric dwelling. You personal the trailer. Typically, generally you’re a renter, however you don’t personal the land that it sits on and it’s very onerous to maneuver it. And so that you’re sort of a hostage to the those that personal and handle the place. Precisely.
Leila: Precisely. Yeah. That was one thing that, you already know, Courtney Stealy had identified in her, um, in her story in regards to the, the cell dwelling park on, on lake Erie is that you simply [00:13:00] do personal the, the, the cell dwelling, however after time, these cell properties begin to degrade and so they’re not simple to only choose up and transfer. The cell is form of a misnomer.
You possibly can’t, you already know, they begin to crumble. They, they sort of rot in place. And so. You might be, as you mentioned, held hostage by, by the property in a way. And so,
Chris: um, yeah, and, and new, and actually even in the event you may transfer it, different locations usually don’t allow you to in as a result of they wish to have newer wanting dwelling. So it’s a, it’s a horrible state of affairs for individuals who had been there with homeowners who’re, should not looking for the perfect curiosity of everybody.
In order that’s simply stunning that these are leaping into the information. We haven’t talked about cell dwelling parks in fairly a while. Mm-hmm you’re listening to right this moment in Ohio college. Hospitals has been taking it on the chin for its massive cutback in companies in two Cleveland suburbs, however the Cleveland clinic goes in one other path, [00:14:00] giving new life to a vacant former Kmart.
Lisa what’s their.
Lisa: Yeah, that is so attention-grabbing. You understand, as a result of builders will inform you that vacated massive field shops are actually onerous to launch. So that is actually excellent news. The Cleveland clinic is renovating the previous Okay mark at 1 78 40 Bagley highway in Middleburg Heights. It’ll be used for major and specialty care.
They are saying will probably be a. Full service facility. It’ll have radiology labs drive via pharmacy and most different service traces. The Cleveland clinic is working with premier improvement companions to remodel this constructing. It’s 93,000 sq. toes. They hope to open it subsequent summer season. So it’ll, this might be open in lower than a 12 months.
If all issues go effectively, Middleburg Heights could Matt Castelli says he’s very excited to broaden their present medical hall. And he says, this could add about 300 good paying jobs to his.
Chris: So in the event you’re ready within the ready room, uh, will there be like blue mild specials down the corridor the place you come down right here and also you get your [00:15:00] shot?
You understand, I imply, is it gonna have the Kmart really feel simply appears odd to be going right into a constructing like that as a medical facility. I ponder how a lot they’ll change the, the environment of it. Nicely with a
Lisa: massive field retailer, there are usually no partitions inside. I imply, it’s mainly a warehouse, you already know, and possibly a storage factor within the again.
So I think about that it might be pretty simple to remodel. I imply, in the event that they’re doing it in lower than a 12 months, that’s that sounds prefer it’s not a really tough job. Uh, Dr. Donald Malone with the Cleveland clinic says, you already know, they don’t have an entire lot of outpatient capability in Middleburg Heights, though it has a pretty big inhabitants.
So that they see this as filling a
Chris: want. Yeah, I simply, I believe the concept of a cavernous constructing doesn’t match along with your medical session. I ponder in the event that they drop the ceilings, it’d be attention-grabbing to see what it seems like, but it surely’s good that they’re, they’re spreading companies on the identical time. Their competitor is chopping means again and catching little bit of grief due to that it’s right this moment in Ohio.
What did our saving you cash columnists, [00:16:00] Sean McDonald get for the 5 bucks he paid for a field of random produce at large Eagle. Laura. This was a captivating take by Sean on making an attempt to take care of a good price range in these inflationary occasions.
Laura: Yeah, completely. I I’ve gotta give my, uh, kudos to Sean for making an attempt this as a result of I believe I might’ve been a bit leery of shopping for some random produce field and, however he did it.
And, um, his column is nice. He’s, he’s writing weekly about methods to save lots of you cash. And final week he obtained me to enroll in the benefit pay on the fuel station. So now I’m saving 20 and 30 cents a gallon, however that is, that is flash meals. That is an app that lets prospects purchase discounted meals. That’s about to run out by the sale by date.
So you may get ready, meals, steak, fruit, juices, yogurt, sweet, all kinds of issues. It is a produce field. It’s sort of like a seize bag. You don’t know precisely what’s in it although. You do see an image of a field, a bit greater than a shoe field. And so Sean may see. Lot. There was six [00:17:00] peppers and it was $5 and he figured six peppers for $5 just isn’t horrible.
He’s gonna take an opportunity. So he ended up with the six peppers, candy potatoes, a bundle of basil, a bundle of sliced child bell mushrooms, and a bag of cherry tomatoes, head of iceberg lettuce, 4 tomatoes and 4 tomatillos, that are. The little fruits that appear like inexperienced unright tomatoes with husks.
He mentioned some had been, was completely effective. Others appeared prefer it wanted to be eaten quickly. And a stunning quantity was marked natural. So seems it was price 30 bucks. If he had purchased all of it contemporary simply from the grocery retailer. And he has all these intelligent ways in which he used it. Like he made tomato sauce with the tomatoes and had a stir fry with the mushroom.
So he, he thinks it’s an ideal.
Chris: There was it wasn’t like he obtained moldy, decomposing, greens. These items was all nonetheless very edible. It’s simply, it didn’t have numerous life shelf life left. If they’ve stored it on the shelf for a number of extra days, it might’ve began to show. And it is a means they make [00:18:00] positive they don’t waste it and other people get deal.
I used to be shocked that how a lot he obtained for it. Yeah. That that’s quite a bit. And also you’re, I imply, you’re proper. It’s, it’s 30 bucks in the event you purchase it when it’s a lot more energizing. So. Yeah.
Laura: He mentioned the peppers had been like a bit wrinkly. So I don’t suppose you’d’ve grabbed these from the produce your self and been like, Hmm, these are the one I would like, however they tasted effective.
And he really ended up freezing them as a result of you already know, you’ll be able to, you already know, minimize your greens, freeze them and use them later. So for somebody who’s wanting to economize, it’s, appears to be an ideal deal. You get to decide on clearly which lot you need. You possibly can’t get it at each retailer. You want this splash meals app, and it’s gonna be solely the place the shops which have this produce.
It’s not. You understand, there’s a, a field while you stroll into large Eagle, so it’s good to have the app. You in all probability have to examine it pretty usually to see what they’ve after which determine if it’s price it for you. Nicely, so
Leila: then do it’s a must to like run round to the totally different shops to select up your, your, your deal?
Sure.
Laura: You need to go to the particular [00:19:00] retailer and I believe he mentioned there have been three on the. That had these when he was wanting, but it surely may be totally different every single day. Hm mm-hmm so that you in all probability should have a bit little bit of time and you’ve got to have the ability to prepare dinner if you would like, you already know, this isn’t for the one that has no time and, uh, and doesn’t wish to prepare dinner.
So
Chris: in the event you subscribe to our web site for 60 bucks a 12 months, proper off the bat, you simply save $25 work. It’s price supporting our
Laura: platforms. That’s just like the factor on the high of the PD and. $236 in coupons inside,
Chris: proper? Precisely. We prevent cash. That’s why his column known as saving you cash. Test it out on cleveland.com.
It’s right this moment in Ohio Lincoln. Electrical is a longtime well-known welding model in Northeast, Ohio, however now it needs a job within the blossoming electrical automobile in. Layla what’s the
Leila: purpose? Nicely, yeah, Lincoln electrical identified for its welders and motors goes to department out and begin manufacturing, electrical automobile [00:20:00] chargers.
These are gonna be stage three, chargers. The type that may cost autos in about half-hour. These highly effective chargers are gonna be discovered at charging stations alongside the interstates. So not in folks’s properties. Sean McDonald tells us that Lincoln electrical makes a lot of its parts in home. It assembles its personal circuit boards makes its personal transformers and electrical harnesses.
It molds its personal plastic elements, fabricates its personal elements out of sheet steel. In order that minimizes a have to outsource. So that they’re in a very good place to get began right here. Lincoln electrical plans to enter the market when. These EV charging networks broaden as a part of the infrastructure funding in jobs act.
Um, and, um, they’re being, you already know, they’re being given funding to construct automobile charging networks with the purpose of putting in, um, uh, wait, pardon me? As a part of the infrastructure funding in jobs act states are being given funding to construct automobile charging web work networks with the purpose of putting in 500,000 electrical automobile chargers throughout the nation [00:21:00] by 2030.
So this matches very properly into that, into that plan. And, uh, the regulation additionally requires costs to have a certain quantity of parts made within the us, which supplies Lincoln’s Cleveland primarily based facility, a leg up on abroad rivals that would wish to construct factories right here. So that they see this as, uh, the trail is vast open for.
Chris: It’s wonderful how briskly this trade is, is shifting. You see revolutions in sectors and event in historical past and the electrical automobile trade is simply shifting so quick. And I can inform you lots of people who hearken to this podcast are massive believers in it. Cuz each time we discuss it, they electronic mail and say, Hey, it is a good factor.
You don’t fairly perceive it. And you already know, you don’t cost your automobile all at, when you high it off and so they’re, they’re paying very shut consideration. And that is simply coming down the tracks and for Lincoln to create an entire new division for it, that’s actually constructing for an ideal future for the corporate and manufacturing in Northeast.[00:22:00]
So
Leila: is that the reply to our query that we preserve asking? that you simply simply high it off. So you’d go to one among these charging stations and you’d plug in for identical to 5 minutes and then you definitely’d be absolutely charged and also you don’t wait till your battery is absolutely depleted.
Chris: Yeah. I imply, they’re, they’re saying, look, you, you’d have it plugged in at dwelling.
So that you’d begin right this moment with a full cost. After which as you go about, you’re not ready for it to get to zero, you’d benefit from, of your stops to, to rapidly cost it. That numerous the, the locations you’ll go to could have charging stations. So that you go grocery procuring. You’ll. You’ll plug in and also you’ll mm-hmm and so they’re, they’re, they’re portray a way more holistic imaginative and prescient of how you’d use these.
We preserve falling again on, however what if I wanna drive to Maine, however that’s, that’s the rarity. I imply, that’s not your day after day use of a automobile and so they’re stating that most individuals, their day after day use of the automobile, it will match very, very properly into the sample. Of the day. Um, so it, and, and so they’re getting [00:23:00] sooner and the batteries are getting extra environment friendly in a short time.
And so the look it’s, it’s the longer term. I imply, California, what did they do? They they’re gonna ban electrical or, uh, fuel powered autos in a number of years because it stands. So that is right here and it’s good to see Northeast Ohio with its automotive historical past, grabbing a giant piece. We’ve got the Ford plant, that’s gonna be, uh, turning into part of {the electrical} automobile trade.
After which Lincoln electrical. It’s a really totally different transfer for them, however, however with their energy and their popularity, that could possibly be fairly severe. Mm-hmm good things. It’s right this moment in Ohio. With an increasing number of police departments counting on state investigators to find out the details in police shootings of individuals. How backed up are these brokers this 12 months?
Lisa, this quantity was a shock to me.
Lisa: It was, however I used to be much more shocked that it was increased final 12 months. So however the bureau of prison investigation, which is below the state lawyer Basic’s workplace has taken 41 officer concerned taking pictures instances [00:24:00] from throughout Ohio. Seven of seven of them are from the Northeast Ohio space.
However by this time, final 12 months, there have been 47. So we’re really down about six instances, however nonetheless an alarming quantity. There are three instances in Akron, together with the Jalen Walker taking pictures by eight Akron law enforcement officials. There have been additionally ones in south Euclid that was a March 18th, uh, Euclid PD officer shot, Aman over a loud music grievance from a automobile.
There was additionally one in south Euclid on August 14th, the place officers fired at a person who rammed the. Cruiser after which ran off, however there have been additionally ones in north Olmsted and Portage county, uh, lawyer de common, David yo says, investigations take about 400 hours to finish, you already know, so that they’re undoubtedly being exhaustive, however 400 occasions 41 is an terrible lot of time.
Chris: I, this has gotta be a major price improve through the years for the lawyer Basic’s workplace. This has turn out to be what, what police departments do to get rid [00:25:00] of any thought that there’s a bias within the investigation or to duck accountability for the investigation. They’re sending it to Yost. And if he’s obtained examine 40 and 50 and 60 of those a 12 months, that’s gotta price some huge cash.
I ponder. Uh, how he’s partitioning his price range to account for that, or I ponder if he’s considering of making an attempt to invoice it again to the cities which can be in search of his assist. Yeah. And we haven’t talked
Lisa: about the fee portion of it, however I’m positive, you already know, we’ll be on that story. However Yost did say that cities can use one other police division so long as it’s an impartial, so long as they’re impartial from the.
Drive incidents. In order that’s sort of attention-grabbing. And I do know that Cleveland does their very own probes, or they use an outdoor company. So, you already know, Cleveland does go a special means, however I felt prefer it was suggesting, you already know, you don’t should carry them to me. You possibly can sort of take them to a different police, you already know, division, which I assumed was attention-grabbing.
Chris: Cleveland police do their very own investigation, however the prosecutor turns it throughout to Yo’s workplace to determine whether or not or to not search a cost. So [00:26:00] it we’re nonetheless getting Yo’s involvement in it. Attention-grabbing story. It’s on cleveland.com and also you’re listening to right this moment in Ohio. So Laura is the brand new chief of nice Britain, a fan of the Cleveland Browns, that means she’s the one, the one fan that’ll be watching this weekend.
Laura: I don’t know. I imply, we all know what she mentioned 4 years in the past. We do not know how she feels about Dashaun Watson or the rest with the Browns now. However as she tweeted out 4 years in the past, when she was at a Browns recreation, she was sporting a Brown’s Jersey, holding a scorching canine, um, AGA at a recreation in opposition to New York jets.
And she or he mentioned, have to be time for a Brown’s win. And she or he really mentioned, Cleveland was her sort of. She was in Cleveland, this, uh, exploring the opportunity of the UK getting its personal NFL workforce. So clearly that has not occurred, however, uh, Joey Morona wrote the story and I gotta give him, uh, hats off to him as a result of he did it fairly rapidly.
And it was simply the suitable tone of this. Um, however clearly we’re speaking about Liz belief and the brand new prime minister. [00:27:00]
Chris: Okay. Uh, I imply the, having her within the Jersey sort of says the place she stands, however I don’t realize it’s right this moment in Ohio, Layla, we saved this for you right this moment. We didn’t discuss it. Yesterday is the choice last.
What is going to turn out to be of Cedar factors? High thrill drag.
Leila: You understand, I’m undecided if this surprises me or not. It shouldn’t, I suppose I, I sort of thought although that they could restore it and reopen it after a season or two, as a result of it’s been an iconic trip on the park because it opened 20 years in the past because the world’s tallest coaster at the moment.
However Cedar level has determined to retire. The dragster, which has been closed since final August. That’s when it severely injured a lady ready in line after part of the excessive velocity practice got here disengaged and hit her within the head. Uh, I do suppose that that incident was so unsettling for folks although that numerous park patrons would really feel very uncomfortable with these vehicles flying round.
Once more, regardless of what number of reassurances Cedar level [00:28:00] issued about it. So a park spokesman mentioned in a tweet this week that they’re engaged on a brand new reimagined trip expertise rather than the dragster. No phrase but on what that may be, but it surely’s in a very central location on the halfway between the co screw and the Magnum.
So it’s an ideal alternative for Cedar level. As Jo Joey Merona factors out in his story. The park has a historical past of respiratory new life into retired rides. Avalanche run turned catastrophe. Transport mantis turned Ruger imply streak turned metal vengeance, and every time they, they used a lot of the prevailing construction, however, um, you already know, it’s sort of onerous to think about the dragster observe.
It’s so distinctive that it’s onerous to repurposing. It
Chris: do do these of us. Who’ve by no means been to Cedar level a favor and describe what this trip is. The dragster.
Leila: Yeah. Oh, effectively, I imply, in the event you you’ve seen the image of it, proper? So it’s like, oh man. I imply, you’re sitting within the automobile and, um, that’s the that’s, it’s the one [00:29:00] trip that each single time I’ve written.
I get nervous since you’re you’re, they have you ever watching this, this stops cease mild and it’s it’s on pink and the engine is revving after which swiftly the sunshine goes from pink to yellow, to inexperienced, after which it fires you off like a rocket and also you go up. Straight. I imply, straight, like a rocket then straight up 90 levels up over, you already know, this 420 foot Spire and excessive, it twists you after which straight down once more, 90 levels after which proper again to the station and it’s over in about 15 seconds, however it’s like, You’re having an outof physique expertise.
It’s the most intense trip within the park, for my part. And each single time I’ve ridden it, it’s the identical feeling. And I’m a bit unhappy that my youngsters won’t ever expertise it. as a result of it’s so, and in the event you trip within the entrance automobile, it’s a very totally different expertise from even one automobile behind that. [00:30:00] And it’s so loopy.
Um, I imply, I assume like Lisa and Laura, have you ever written on the drag? Oh, pricey
Lisa: Lord. No, my rollercoaster days are, I don’t have the bladder management to trip rollercoaster. I simply don’t.
Laura: No, I’ve by no means ridden it.
Leila: Look actually Laura. I imply, I
Laura: actually went to Cedar level as soon as as an adolescent after which didn’t return till like two years in the past and my youngsters should not rollercoaster followers.
Wow.
Leila: Not but. I one time waited 4 hours to trip this 15 second. Wow. Sure. And I want my youngsters would had the reminiscence in, you already know, to have, you already know, that they as soon as have. I want that that they had ridden it at the very least one time, but it surely’s gonna be gone cuz it’s intense and there’s nothing prefer it. So perhaps one thing that they put there’ll, could have the depth and the thrill of the dragster, however relaxation in peace dragster.
Uh, I’m sorry that it
Chris: ended this manner. I’m so glad we saved this query for while you had been again. At this time and I that’s it for a [00:31:00] Thursday dialogue. Come on again Friday. We’ll wrap up the weekend information. Thanks Lisa. Thanks Layla. Thanks Laura. And thanks for listening.

Gophers men’s hockey team rolls 6-1 against Ohio State for split of Big Ten series
Three power-play goals and the goaltending of Liam Souliere helped the No. 3 Gophers men’s hockey team rebound with a 6-1 victory over No. 11 Ohio State on Saturday at Value City Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
“It just was not a good look to us last night,” coach Bob Motzko said. “Tonight, absolutely the other way around from the first shift. All four lines, all the defensemen, Liam was great in net, and give our guys credit, we responded. I hope it’s a lesson for us, and I hope that’s a game to get us going now.”
The Gophers (18-4-2, 9-2-1 Big Ten) scored three times in the first eight minutes.
A penalty on the Buckeyes for too many players on the ice put the Gophers on the power play just 86 seconds into the game. Mike Koster quickly converted the opportunity to open the scoring with 17:18 left in the first period.
A little over five minutes later, Mason Nevers and Connor Kurth scored 15 seconds apart to give the Gophers a 3-0 lead with 12 minutes left in the first period.
Less than two minutes into the second period, the Gophers went on the power play again, and Koster again converted to make it 4-0.
Jimmy Snuggerud made it 5-0 with a power-play goal with 6:05 remaining in the second period.

Texas Longhorns Players Explain Goal-Line Stop vs. Ohio State Buckeyes
The Texas Longhorns fell just short of advancing to their first CFP National Championship game for the second year in a row, losing 28-14 to Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl. And while the final score may not indicate, the Longhorns were a yard away from potentially sending the game to overtime late in the fourth quarter.
After back-to-back defensive pass interference calls on what was shaping up to be a 75-yard drive, all Texas needed was a yard to punch it into the endzone and tie the game at 21 with under 4 minutes remaining in regulation.
However, after the first-and-goal run up the middle for freshman running back Jerrick Gibson was held for no gain, the controversial halfback toss play call was made. With Quintrevion Wisner lined up to his left, Quinn Ewers was in the shotgun as he tossed it to Wisner, on the first of two disastrous plays that doomed the Longhorns’ national championship hopes.
“That’s one of those plays, if you block it all right, you get into the end zone,” Steve Sarkisian said of his play-call. “We didn’t, and we lost quite a bit of yardage.”
So what went wrong on the toss play? Well, as always the devil is in the details in football. During his post-game interview, starting left tackle Kelvin Banks explained exactly what went wrong for the Longhorns on the ill-fated toss play. He was one of a few Texas players that was asked about the sequence after the game.
“I saw the boundary safety to come down [Latham Ransom], and I thought it was gonna be a big hole behind me, because that’s kind of how the play [was] designed to go,” Banks said. “I’m supposed to kick him out. Trey hits the hole behind me, and then while I’m kicking him out, I just I hear screaming, y’all, so I look, I’m turning my left, and then Downs is making the play.”
So on the surface, the toss seems to indicate that the play was supposed to see the Longhorns capture the edge and run wide to the goal-line. Banks revealed that is not the case. Instead, as shown in the video above, the hole that is vacated by Banks pulling is supposed to be where Wisner is designed to cut it back and score.
However, that is where the heads-up play is made by Buckeyes safety Caleb Downs, who shoots the gap left open by Banks, forcing Wisner to continue running wide, where he then is corralled for a seven-yard loss by Ransom.
If Downs is fooled by Banks pulling and runs with him instead of shooting the gap, then this play may be remembered entirely differently. But as Sarkisian said post-game, Ohio State’s defense made the play, while Texas didn’t, which unfortunately for the Longhorns ended up costing them the game.

What we learned from Ohio State’s Cotton Bowl victory over Texas
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — It was unlike the other playoff games Ohio State had played so far this season. We didn’t see the early explosive plays on offense. We saw plenty of penalty flags. And the Buckeyes had their backs against the wall until the final 2:13 of the Cotton Bowl.
Turns out, it was a moment that Ohio State had been preparing for all year long.
“I believe that the resilience that we’ve had to show throughout the entire season and throughout some of these guys’ careers has led us to this opportunity to win this game and go play for a national championship,” head coach Ryan Day said.
Here’s what we learned from the Buckeyes’ 28-14 Cotton Bowl win over Texas.
Cool heads prevail on offense
Ohio State was unable to take charge of the game like it had in the previous two playoff contests. Instead, the Buckeyes were forced into a four quarter battle — plagued by nine penalties — with the Longhorns. OSU quarterback Will Howard was forced to grind it out against a defense who had largely shut down star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith.
“We knew they were going to be keying him. Obviously, the first two rounds of the playoffs, (Smith) went off so we knew they were going to try and do something to take him away,” Howard said. “That means that we got to be smart and get the ball to other guys.”
That’s exactly what Howard did. TreVeyon Henderson, who earlier drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, delivered a momentum-changing play at the end of the first half with a 75-yard touchdown to give the Buckeyes a 14-7 lead going into the locker room.
“I don’t think anyone thought that that was going for 75 yards,” Howard said. “That was a huge play for us. A huge swing.”
Then in the fourth, the Buckeyes needed a 13-play, 88-yard drive that took nearly eight minutes to secure the lead. The march down the field included a crucial fourth down conversion where Howard made an 18-yard gain on his own and finished with Quinshon Judkins scoring his second touchdown of the night.
“I fell on purpose. I’m joking. I didn’t fall on purpose,” Howard said. “It was a great play and a statement drive. We needed that. We had been beating ourselves all day with penalties and just getting behind the sticks. […] And obviously what the defense did on that next drive sealed it.”
Pickerington’s Jack Sawyer propels Buckeyes to victory
The Longhorns were one yard away from tying the game late in the fourth quarter. But the red zone defense who had made headlines earlier in the season prevailed when it mattered the most. Lathan Ransom pushed Texas back to the eight yard line on second down. Then on third down, Jack Sawyer forced an incomplete pass. Moments later, the Pickerington native delivered a play that will go down as legendary.
“What happened on fourth down by Jack just symbolizes not only his career but our team in general and who they are,” Day said. “The toughness and the clutch play right there was something that I’m sure the whole city of Columbus exploded with all of Buckeye nation during that play.”
Sawyer forced Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers to cough up the football. The senior defensive end ends up with the scoop and score, returning it 83 yards the other way to give Ohio State a commanding 28-14 lead and punching the Buckeyes’ ticket to the national championship game. The play is the longest defensive return score in CFP history.
So what was Sawyer thinking during that run to glory?
“Just don’t fall like Will did,” Sawyer said. “I’m kidding but seriously I hit about the 30 and I looked back and said I hope I got some blockers. I’m running out of steam here. They were running with me side by side and that just speaks volumes to who this team is.”
No hard feelings from former roommate Quinn Ewers
On the other end of that play was Ewers, who up to that point had thrown for two touchdowns and had not turned the ball over. The Texas quarterback is a former Buckeye who shared a room with Sawyer during his lone season in Columbus.
“I saw Jack running with the ball down the sideline. It sucks man,” Ewers said. “He’s a great player. Great individual. Great person. Jack’s a great player and he made a great play.”
Ewers ended up completing 23 of 39 passes for 283 yards and two scores. His late interception to Caleb Downs ended any faint hope the Longhorns had in getting back in the game and instead sparked conversations on Ewers’ future with Texas.
“I just said great season. He’s a great guy,” Sawyer said. “He’s had a lot of success and he’s a great person you know. I just told him to keep your head up. You played a great game and you got a great future ahead of you.”
Buckeyes back in the title game
As Ohio State enjoys its third ever Cotton Bowl victory, attention now turns toward Notre Dame, who stands in the way of the program’s ninth national championship. The Buckeyes will have ten days to prepare for the Jan. 20 contest in Atlanta, the final hurdle to the team’s ultimate goal.
“We talked about how we want to keep this team together. It’s a great team,” Day said. “They do everything the right way and so now they get ten more days together.”
Atlanta is the final stop on the Buckeyes’ redemption tour. It’s where Ohio State suffered that heartbreaking Peach Bowl loss in the 2022 CFP semifinals at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve. And it’s the final piece of the puzzle to putting all of OSU’s past demons behind them.
“It’s an opportunity to tell their story if they go win one more,” Day said. “That’s really exciting.”
