Speaker 1 (00:42):
The stars over talk back show. Right.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Well, there we going.

Speaker 4 (00:51):
What an opportunity reds win and an opportunity for you
to win on Friday if you leave the best talk
back of the week, you would win a SINSI Shirts
gift hard.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
Here are today's entries.

Speaker 5 (01:03):
So this is my morning voice and I'm here to
tell you I watched most of the big games leading
up to last night's championship, and I fell sleep in
the second and a half. Here's my question, what's the
biggest game or championship that you watched on the couch
and fell sleep too, I only to have to go

(01:26):
look it up on the internet later when you woke up.

Speaker 4 (01:31):
I can honestly say I haven't done that. There is
a weirdness about me, and this pertains to movies as well.
I couldn't tell you even if I've seen it. The
last movie I have started that I don't finish. And
it's the same with sporting events. I will not fall
asleep during the sporting event. If i'm now, I might
fall asleep before it, but if I start watching it,
I am locked in.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
There's one I can think of. I was younger.

Speaker 6 (01:53):
It was twenty ten, the NLDS in Philadelphia, the night
Roy Holliday through the no hitter. I fell asleep and
I woke up in the ninth inning. I woke up
when Brandon Phillips was trying to bunt his way on.
So I missed like probably six innings worth of that game.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Now, I.

Speaker 4 (02:12):
Remember I was in Charlotte, living in Carolina, and I
remember I had people over like man Reds were in
the playoffs, and I remember by the sixth inning the
party was done.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yeah, done, no fun?

Speaker 7 (02:25):
Did Emmanual Sharp just become Bill Buckner of Houston.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
I feel sorry for that guy.

Speaker 8 (02:32):
I hate Houston, but for that young man, I genuinely
feel sorry.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
He needs to get in witness protection program asap. He
gonna wind up on a milk cart and going back
to Houston.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
Somebody get him off that flight, get.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Him off the fly.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
He'll be all right. He's gonna be back next year.
He'll lead him right back where they need.

Speaker 9 (02:51):
To be day from the berg here.

Speaker 10 (02:53):
Scott's right, you guys need to focus more on what
the Reds are doing right like the Bad Boys.

Speaker 9 (02:57):
They're having a heck of a year.

Speaker 11 (02:58):
And Rosie read she's won three Masscot races already, and
then the Swag Crew they haven't missed the stands all year.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
On accuracy, that's unbelievable. If you guys focused more on
things like that, then maybe your show wud be a
little bit easier.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
To listen to. During the skyline shuffle.

Speaker 6 (03:18):
Oh yeah, I'm on pace, although I will say red Zilla,
all of a sudden, you stop making stop making it
up to the bow tie Bar. I had multiple opportunities
at catching those balls last year at the bow Tibe.

Speaker 4 (03:30):
I thought it changed the bet when they extended the netting.
It did that hurt that hurt Reds last year. I
had opportunities to go after those balls in the bow
tie Bar. And then the two times I've been there
this year, they don't eve shoot him at the bow
tie Bar no moreh.

Speaker 8 (03:45):
It's Scott, I have exercise the demon.

Speaker 10 (03:49):
The Reds have won again.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Thank you, Lord, Thank you Lord.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
How is this Hank kill and bomb gone?

Speaker 11 (04:01):
Hey?

Speaker 10 (04:01):
Why I met our buddy Scott out back Alley yesterday.

Speaker 11 (04:06):
And I got a dose of that hope and that
he was.

Speaker 9 (04:10):
Out a bomb?

Speaker 3 (04:10):
Gonay?

Speaker 5 (04:11):
Why the Reds won last night?

Speaker 8 (04:14):
The sky looks a little more blue, the grass is
a little bit greener.

Speaker 10 (04:20):
Rad's gonna win the World Series.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
Thank you, Scot.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
He's definitely on something right there.

Speaker 9 (04:29):
I have a topic for the next pole question. Okay,
I can do four to that are left on the
roster after this week.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
That's a good question.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Rate questions.

Speaker 12 (04:38):
So we traded Stuart Firchild for a cash consideration.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
That's long balls to you?

Speaker 12 (04:42):
Oh with the wig Jake Frayley is playing? When does
cast considerations get in the lineup? I mean he can
feel it a lot better than Frayley can hope. So anyway,
let's go back there you go, Happy.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
Tuesday, Brian from a here here Brian, When did uh
Scott Saloon start sounding like.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Retired Mike McConnell.

Speaker 5 (05:08):
Wow?

Speaker 3 (05:08):
That was fun? Anyways, Happy Tuesday. Uh, great game last
night for the Reds. Go was that meant for us?

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Uh? I think he got the wrong station.

Speaker 13 (05:18):
The tone in the auto box, it is twelve oh
nine and even that's Tony's.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Menu right now for the masters.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
What his would be.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
He would start off with hippetizers of chicken tenders.

Speaker 14 (05:30):
Then he would have Mamma Now's chili cheese sands from
the reading Hide Booster lunch.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
His main course would be a Domino's pizza.

Speaker 13 (05:36):
With cheese no and I mean no garlic seasoning on
the cross.

Speaker 11 (05:41):
He would also have plain McDonald's cheeseburger ad salt.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
His dessert would be Recey cups.

Speaker 9 (05:46):
Let me know how I.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
Did not bad, Probably nailed it. That's pretty that's pretty close.

Speaker 6 (05:52):
Although I think it would be a Donado's pizza, not
a domino right.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Probably I'm not giving away my whole.

Speaker 15 (06:00):
Two hundred and seventy five million, Jamar Chase one hundred
and forty, Miles Garrett one hundred and forty, Donovan Mitchell,
I think one hundred and forty, Jose Ramirez one hundred
and fifty. I do believe all of these guys have
a state income tax at three point five percent in
the state of Ohio, So you want these owners to
fork up money, which they kind of don't want to do.
Put all of these state income tax dollars, which Joe

(06:22):
burrows ten million alone, into the stadium fund, and essentially
these owners are paying for their own renovation.

Speaker 6 (06:30):
Okay, I'm trying to think how that would be possible
for it to make a difference if you're only taxing,
if the income tax only applies to athletes, professional athletes,
are you making enough money to make a difference for
a stadium fund?

Speaker 4 (06:52):
I don't even I don't mess with any type of taxes,
so that's above my pay grade.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
By the way, tax days coming up.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
I hate it, guys.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
Talkback Manors guy. Great job for Hunter Green the rest.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
I think they might sweep the car of the Giants.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
I think they might sweep the giants.

Speaker 16 (07:09):
By the way, I think we should have a lady
president of since he three sixty. So I'm throwing out
names like Marinate and Talkback Matters Guy, Gina and Talkback.

Speaker 13 (07:24):
Manors Guy, or.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Pepper Matt Patty you talk Back.

Speaker 4 (07:28):
Matters well, I mean Peppermint Patty, Marinate is her name
is Meredith?

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Did he just reveal something really personal to us?

Speaker 3 (07:38):
What's that? I mean?

Speaker 6 (07:41):
He said he wants it to be a lady and
then he named himself three times.

Speaker 11 (07:46):
Hey everybody, Happy Tuesday to you. Two days in a
row of sunshine. Dude, quote the late great Kirk Galley.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
How about that?

Speaker 11 (07:54):
Even a Red Legs win last night? Years what's on
my sports bucket list? I like to go maybe see
a it's on a five hundred one day. Maybe I'll
wrestle Mannie if it everyone comes to and the rest
of it's kind of small, you know. Just go see
the Reds or Bengals play a playoff game of person
take care of right man?

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Which one of those will come first?

Speaker 17 (08:14):
I'm calling from the ball nowhere's yep. You know, I've
just been having some issues lately, and you know, I'm
gonna make an appointment at try Statement Health, but I
was just really hoping you could clear some stuff up
for me first. You see, I've been having this plug.

Speaker 10 (08:31):
I don't know.

Speaker 17 (08:32):
Just just call me back.

Speaker 3 (08:33):
I'll tell you all about it.

Speaker 18 (08:36):
Hi.

Speaker 19 (08:36):
Hi, this is Karen.

Speaker 20 (08:38):
My My son Scott called yesterday.

Speaker 21 (08:42):
Come on.

Speaker 13 (08:43):
He's just a great Cincinnati and he just wants everybody
to be positive about about the Reds and the Bengals
and everything else.

Speaker 19 (08:50):
And you know, and don't don't tell him.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
I called Scott.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Scott has not tried to defend his honor at all.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
I'm surprised Eve heard from Scott yet.

Speaker 9 (09:01):
Watching the way that Houston lost last night, and as
a Bear Cuts fan, put some positivity on it. I'm
glad you see wasn't in the National Championship because I'm
not sure my heart could take losing like that.

Speaker 4 (09:17):
Yeah, it goes to show it doesn't matter when and
where you lose. It's still gonna sting no matter what.

Speaker 8 (09:24):
He easy to be positive with the Reds on the
Hunter Green Niclodelo angle, I wanted Houston to win a
lot last night, so I figured they'd lose in heartbreaking
fashion like they did. I can't believe they shut Clayton
Junior down and give Florida's defense a lot of credit
for that w high level basketball. Now for me the

(09:46):
next five months, you know, I need to get back
to reality, put sports down a tiny bit.

Speaker 22 (09:57):
Hey guys, Tony, it's pretty rare that I agree with
Austin instead of you, But the first twenty two minutes
of that show should have been headlined with Hunter Green,
that Man's gonna go out and winnasion this year. I
truly believe that once these guys get hot, they'll stay hot.
All we gotta do is get back to five hundred right.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
Hopefully he does. One of my favorite only forty minutes
could be given to.

Speaker 6 (10:19):
One of my favorite backhanded compliments that I get all
the time is people say, you know, I almost never
agree with you, but I get that all the time,
which tells me you'd probably agree with me more than
you think.

Speaker 10 (10:34):
Scott Sloan here live in the banks of Cincinnati.

Speaker 6 (10:38):
Last night, the Florida.

Speaker 10 (10:39):
Gators take down the Houston Cougars. We're gonna cover that
the first segment. Later on, we're gonna talk about today
this evening.

Speaker 18 (10:47):
We got the Reds.

Speaker 10 (10:47):
They're playing its opening day.

Speaker 22 (10:50):
But man, what a.

Speaker 10 (10:51):
Collapse from the Houston Cougars. Three turnovers in the last minute,
twenty what a shit.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Thanks Loan, Thank Scott hit.

Speaker 21 (11:00):
Is former president Ronald Riggan. And we'll talk about your
not so shining moments. How about that poor kid from
Houston who couldn't get his final shot off last night.
You gotta feel bad for him. Also, for one brief
not so shining moment, I thought that the ball hit
off of Tony Santion was going to find the gap

(11:21):
and tie the game up, but thank goodness it didn't.
It was awesome, baby.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
But well done.

Speaker 14 (11:32):
Happy Tony. You told me that I had to be
so holy moly, so that was a total flub. At
least I wasn't in the bathroom to do that. Hey,
it's Jeff Listen. I have been negative a lot lately.

(11:54):
I apologize. I love you guys, I love the show.
I love everybody else involved with it. Eddie Zelmi's back.
I'm excited. It was a long week last week without it.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Do you think Eddie Zella has any idea that he's
such a star?

Speaker 3 (12:13):
I don't know. Oh, that's a great question.

Speaker 6 (12:15):
I think he's I don't know where he's located. All
those traffic people are in different parts of the country
most I think most around Detroit.

Speaker 14 (12:24):
Tony, real quick. I agree with you about good three
of them in the tournament. One thing that does concern
me is we've had a lot of folks that have
jumped into this transfer portal, and it seems like all
we've brought in so far are guards. I can't imagine

(12:45):
us playing a four guard set being killed in our conference.
I just wanted your thoughts on getting big men.

Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yeah, they need at least two out of the portal,
and I'm hoping that they're just taking their time finding
the right ones.

Speaker 19 (13:00):
Yes is DJ Hey, Yeah, I'm really happy to see
Green get a win last night. The dude pitched with attitude,
got a little bit of run support, and man, that
lineup is hard to watch. It just so without McLean
and I hope this isn't a year long thing with him.
But the one that just drives me crazy is Candellario.

(13:21):
That dude looks like he's swinging a wet noodle up there.
Can't stand to watch him. He should be in last place.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
Got a bad approach.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
Yeah, I had so much more hope for him than
what we're getting.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
I did too, I really.

Speaker 10 (13:35):
Did funny again. We're gonna get to a quick break
when we get back.

Speaker 23 (13:40):
Ken Brew's gonna join us.

Speaker 10 (13:41):
And we're gonna talk about groupie culture in the nineteen
sixties hard rock scene.

Speaker 6 (13:46):
Well, kid Brew joined us. We're gonna play a recorded
interview that know. The other guys get to ask questions too.

Speaker 18 (13:52):
Every quick points about the Reds one hunter. Green was brilliant,
but he overshadowed what continues to be an abysmal offense
for this team. It has to change.

Speaker 3 (14:01):
Two.

Speaker 18 (14:02):
Ellie needs to move up in the order, whether that's
at one or two in the order. Your best hitters
need more opportunities. It's very simple. Bat him up higher
and three. This is to Mark's point earlier, the reason
Tito can't make those changes late in the game, the
cat and mouse righty lefty thing, is because he doesn't
have anyone available. Everyone's hurt. Have a good day, guys.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
I don't really have the horses off the bench to
be able to sub like that.

Speaker 18 (14:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (14:24):
By the way, our guy Mode did a little bit
of research on the leadoff position and the numbers on that.
He tweeted this out at Moegar. The leadoff position in
the Reds batting order came to the plate seven hundred
and thirty eight times last season. The third play hitter
came to the plate six hundred and thirty six. As
Mo points out, why would anyone want Ellie to come

(14:47):
to the plate one hundred fewer times during the course
of the season is beyond me?

Speaker 2 (14:51):
Good point, Tony Austin, is Seifer mount healthy?

Speaker 10 (14:55):
Here?

Speaker 3 (14:55):
John all right? Johnny?

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Just FYI four twenty this year going to be a big,
big old holiday.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
I mean the vice president.

Speaker 17 (15:04):
Yes, we still are the leadership of this administration.

Speaker 7 (15:08):
Because I don't know, you guys just won't get rid
of us. You can officially just say we're no longer
in office, but we're gonna keep presenting anyhow. Four means
like Lily, stay tuned.

Speaker 6 (15:19):
I learned like two days ago that four to twenty
this year is Easter. It's also day to a WrestleMania.
Seems to be counterproductive. One hell of a crossover there, John,
You can submit your resignation if you don't want to
be in office anymore.

Speaker 20 (15:35):
Yeah, you'd leave us with you know, talk about even
though we won two nothing last night, but two nothing
victory doesn't have any feeling very scoptimistic about this team yet.
Got a start bench cut Scott Souderfield part Scott optimistic, Scott.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
Stop, He says, scoptimistic starts out of field. I'm expecting
huge things. I will bench optimistic Scott cut. We haven't
Satterfield on the show tomorrow. Yes, we all talked to
Scott's out of field. That's why he's starting.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
Yeah, I'm gonna start, coach Sat.

Speaker 6 (16:14):
I'm gonna bench optimistic Scott and I'm cutt man Scott.

Speaker 13 (16:19):
Big question on everybody's mind is know not how to
get a staying out of a blue dressful will He's
gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
If Slick Willy sees his shadow on.

Speaker 13 (16:30):
You will have undoubtedly the most amazing skyline cravings for
six weeks. And if I don't, Johnny from Mount Healthy
said he'd quit drinking for a couple of days.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
WHOA stay tuned.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 6 (16:43):
On Saturday, I had a skyline craving that I've never
had before. Like I don't know what it feels like
to be a pregnant woman, but I would imagine it
was something close to that. The craving that I felt
out of nowhere Saturday. So I hustled down to the
Oakley Skyline. It's a good place, which is in my mind,

(17:04):
the best skyline in this city. It is the best
skyline in the city, if nothing else, just because I
like to sit at the bar and listen to the
workers gossip about one another. And on top of that,
the food is fantastic.

Speaker 9 (17:22):
He's right, it's sincy.

Speaker 15 (17:25):
Anytime the Reds are doing something good with that, well.

Speaker 4 (17:31):
We got on one hundred and fifty one more opportunities
to people forget.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
I went to J school a little while since we heard.

Speaker 23 (17:47):
Hey, gentlemen, Ryan here, I believe the Reds are going
to turn around. They're going to sweep the Giants, and uh,
let's go man, turn around, guys, positivity and go sweep
them Pirates.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
Lighter, lighter, miil and all seriousness though.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
Shout out to Hunter Green boy. I tell he's my
favorite player. I tell you, yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
See, all right, it was our last one.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
Very good.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
We'll have a pole question update when we return.

Speaker 3 (18:21):
We got a pole question.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
We've got a lot of them to get to.

Speaker 3 (18:23):
An injury update, and we also have breaking news.

Speaker 4 (18:28):
And I'll know, since it's Sincy three sixty if I
could talk anything about the NBA, but there's breaking news
out of the NBA all that I'm gonna get to
as well next Since he three sixty thanks to Cincy
