There will be no personal nor direct attacks on anyone and I would ask that you please try to keep down the loud cheering and the clapping. There will be no booing and no unruly behavior. With that, this is painful and it will be for a long time. After all, these are a couple of high-stepping turkeys and you know what to say about a high stepper. No step too high for a high stepper. This is midday mobile with Sean Sullivan on FM Talk 106-5. Well Sean's a tough guy. I mean I think everybody knows that. You know Sean, he took some licks, he hangs in there. Yeah what's wrong with the beer we got? I mean the beer we got drank pretty good don't it? Did you hear what I said? So this is a great council. I had no dollar bounce in. That doesn't suck. If you don't like it, you're bad. Last question. Were you high on drugs? Last question, kiss my ****. All right here we go, FM Talk 106-5 and midday mobile on this Wednesday. Glad to have you a long phone number. The text line, same as it was last hour and it's been for 15 years. 343-01-06-343-01-06. All right and also you can leave us a talk-back message using the FM Talk 106-5 app and we'll get back to the text from last hours but I do want to get this one chasing it said right at the end of the hour said Sean your history guy wanted to become acceptable to celebrate America by shooting Chinese fireworks. Well they're homemade fireworks. They're not, I mean maybe now, maybe now you're getting them from China but I think they're probably made in the United States but it was, I mean 1777, right? The first independent state celebration one year in there and I don't have the quote in front of me but there was, they specifically said there should be some kind of exploit or fireworks or something like that. So it's been a, it's been a thing the whole time and even back then you know they weren't getting those fireworks from China. I wouldn't think now that Chinese do they have a patent on it? Sure, they invented, dang Chinese have invented, go through the look of things, things in today's world and what culture invented them. China's got the lock on about 35% of the things out there. So we, you know, they were in early. These days it changes now that you make it and ship it over to us. All right. So we'll come back to that. Without further ado, the crowd goes wild. It's Erica Thomas from 1819news.com. Hello. Howdy, Sean. Howdy, Erica. I gotta, first of all, do you have big plans for Independence Day? I mean, you're like, where everybody's going, you live in South Baldwin County. Everybody's coming down there for Independence Day. What are you going to do, leave or what? Yeah, I definitely plan to stay indoors. I still can't drive very far due to my back surgery so I'm still stuck kind of within a close proximity. So, you know, I'm definitely going to try to stay out of the traffic. But that's the main number one thing. I got to get my groceries very soon. And then I will watch that we're going to have fireworks all in my subdivision. I live in one of those little HOA subdivisions where all the houses look the same right beside each other. So hopefully nobody catches my house on fire. And I'll probably give my dogs a little cough medicine, you know, before. Yeah, I was calm down because your dogs, I met your dogs before. Is it, is it, is it, I would guess the bigger dog ranger has the bigger issues or am I wrong? Who has the bigger issue? Ranger has the issue of he wants to take the fireworks and grab them like he actually jumps in the air like he's going to grab the fireworks. Like the dog. He gets real excited. So, the little Pomeranian who right now has a line cut, he looks like a tiny little lion walking around. He gets very nervous. He's not too bad like most little dogs, but to still like you can tell that he's kind of scared. And so, my fear is that you just like open the door and you take off and you know, they were funner again. So, and that does happen a lot during the Fourth of July. So many dogs go missing. You know, they just run off because they get so scared. And I even had one, one time on a lease that took off, you know, when when a firework went off and and he was a little pihuahua, but he high-tailed it out of my hand. So, you just never know. You got to be careful with your dog. Yeah, the flip side is, yeah, always had hunting dogs and fireworks go off and they get excited. Yeah, I think there's guns going off and there should be birds falling. Yeah, rangers like, let's get it. I want to get it. So, y'all cough syrup is what what the veterinarian here, Erica Thomas, is recommended for those dogs. Well, we'll leave it at that. Well, now my dog, my veterinarian gave my dog some of that value for dogs one time and it did the opposite thing. Like, it was a little sailor. He was running around the whole living room, just jumping up on the sofa. And I think he felt weird. So, it freaked her out. So, I don't use that. Okay. Well, she reacts the same way I react to NyQuil. Like, NyQuil puts, you know, people to sleep. It puts me on edge. That stuff is like reverse wiring. I've heard that. So, I don't know. Okay. There's so many things that reverse on me. So, what are you going to do? Would I ask about this? This was interesting reading through a story after City Council meeting. You had posted up Mobile's youth violence program expanding, not discontinuing. This is, you know, and we talked about this and I know you mentioned men United against violence and John Young and I talk about this a lot of times. Do these programs work, you know, the redirection program? What is, what's the city saying here? What are they doing? So, apparently somebody came to a media outlet, actually not mine, but a media outlet or two came to the city and told them that they had heard that this youth violence prevention program was being discontinued in public safety director Rob Lasky said, "No, that's not true." With this program, they, it's a baby program really. It's only been around for a few years. So, I think it started in 2022, marked the 2022. So, the director told me before Dr. Wooddon, who said, you know, we're just now to the point where we're actually able to do stuff because this has been a strategic planning process over the last couple of years. And now, we're just now getting to where we're able to put on an event and that kind of thing. So, now, they're expanding the program. This is a positive thing that they're expanding with the parks and recs. Now, whether you will ever be able to measure if this program is making a difference, I don't know how you would measure that. But we do know that these kids aren't walking down the street by themselves at night or, you know, getting into trouble when they're doing these events that the city's offering. So, I just think there's a positive side to this, no matter what. And Dr. Wooddon, he goes into schools. He gives his testimony, his story. He's a very inspirational speaker. He really cares about these kids because they're his kids and his mind. You know, this is his community. He's a child behavior specialist. He's just got a great resume. And so, I think it's good that they see him as an older version of themselves, that he's doing something good. He's making a positive difference. And I just don't think that you can't really put a value on that. I mean, invaluable, you know. Yeah. But with the program, yes. And having somebody who can tell a testimony like that and be real world, not like, hey, it's, you know, somebody dressed up and it's the don't say no to crime, you know, whatever, say no to crime parent. Hey, kids, silly stuff. Yeah, it's not that. It's not that. But also, the programs that we roll out and the city has been doing this for a while. I know when they started this, we talked about it a good bit. You got it. I just hope the program's are cool for lack of a better word, right? Because sometimes I think adults miss the mark on things that are supposed to get through to kids. And it's like, I remember being, you know, kidding, these programs that were sent to us are like, Oh, good. You know, roll your eyes. Like, give me a break. Yeah. And somehow they have to have somebody bake it for today's kids instead of having a bunch of grownups figure it out to incentivize them using the things that the kids are thinking about that they think it's cool. Yeah. And they do. They, they have the kids, you know, take on their own leadership roles and their own, depending on what the program is, they have, they have youth balance prevention week. They have breakthrough teams, which is really cool. Rock the runway, they have like a team model program. They have family initiatives. They have all kinds of programs and campaigns. But I think I know Joshua Jones is an adult, but you know, he's like the cool. Yeah, he's cool. There's the white tea in the, in the tennis views and in the, the cap. You know, so it's like, he's, he's able to get on that level. And they're like, I can't believe you weren't for the city of Mobile, like, in, in that white tea, you know, yeah. And he's told me a lot about how, how some of the children at first are a little bit, you know, stand office. But once they get to know him, they, they really start to, to take part in partner with him and these programs and even helping them develop strategies and programs because he's listening to them, you know, on, on the level that they're at and using their knowledge to benefit everyone else. Yeah, bring it back to the eastern shore here. And so many times these stories come up and you, whether it's libraries or bridges, you do the work here to help us understand it. We'll see a headline. I don't fully understand it. The, the 68 ventures. So people know him for the bowl game and all the, but 68 ventures, this group, he said seeking equal justice in going forward with state lawsuit against the city of Fair Hope. I've heard little bits about this, but I remain confused. Educate me. What's going on here? The 68 ventures is one of the largest development companies in Baldwin County. And they've done some working mobile counties too, but they wanted to put in some apartment complexes, basically. They're nice department complexes, but they would definitely be affordable because really the issue in Baldwin County is we have all these restaurants. We have, you know, a lot of attractions and people work at these places. People work at these places making minimum wage and maybe a little higher and simply can't afford to live here. It's very expensive to live in Baldwin County. So their idea, they bought land in unincorporated Baldwin County and decided they were going to put this development on their large large development. Multique, you can see housing complexes, what they call it. So there might be, you know, town homes or apartments, what have you. So when they decided to do this, the city of Fair Hope, their planning commission told them they can't do this. And so you say, oh, this is unincorporated. What, what does it have to do with Fair Hope? Well, the city of Fair Hope has the ability to, you know, have, have a right to how you handle your property within a certain boundary around Fair Hope. And so I think that's very unusual for Baldwin County to have that. I think it's got to be unusual. But yeah, I know. I think Senator and maybe it was a county commissioner back then, but I think Senator Elliott talked about, Chris Elliott talked about that at 1.2. I forget what the actual law was that they were talking about. But yeah, in a story on 18 19 news.com, I did link that. And it says it's right before it says the city regulates zoning based on an agreement. And so you can click on that link in the story and it takes you to that agreement. And it's pretty lengthy. So it is very strange. I did not know that when I moved here to an incorporated Baldwin County. I did not realize that the county had so much control. I mean, it's almost run like a city, you know, with ordinance and zoning schools that are just pretty strict. And there's good reason for that there. I mean, when you have a county growing like we are, you have to be careful and watch out for infrastructure. Make sure we have enough water to go around. You know, they were if you there's all kinds of things that can be impacted by the high growth Baldwin County has had to understand why they have these zoning rules and all that. But at the same time, I just I'm a fan of letting people do what they will with their property. Yeah, that's the problem that clash, right? To say, hey, there's because my default is somebody chooses to live in unincorporated areas because they want the liberty of living in an unincorporated, unincorporated area. But then if they demand, you know, water and sewer, then then you got to say, well, okay, you know, and people say, yes, planning jurisdiction. You have these planning jurisdictions out there, but there is a question. I mean, I don't know how you balance these things. How far out do you have to move to be able to do things the way you want to do? Well, there's maps. I mean, it just depends on where you are, exactly, and what city you're close to. And I know that some other cities have dealt with these sort of issues before, but 68 vendors decided they would take this on a federal level and file federal lawsuit against the city of Fairhouse. And so that's where we are now. This does just basically through this case out of federal court and said, you got to take this to state court. So that's the plan. That's what they're doing. I spoke with Adam Campbell. He's the president of 68 Ventures, which, by the way, that whole group of guys, they're amazing. The people that run 68 Ventures, they really have done so much for the community. They really care about people. And they're really, they're really trying here to help people out. And I think that the idea of an apartment complex out in the middle of Baldwin County, just it's freaking people out because it is so close to Fairhouse. But I think we need to consider the fact that there are all these people that live here that can't even afford it. Even some police officers around here, you know, I would say if you work for the police department, you're probably good because they're paying $80,000 to police officers within three years. But other departments like, you know, in the Fairhouse office, they're not going to, it's sad if you're a police officer and you're living here and protecting everyone, but then you can't even afford a home, a nice home. And so this is the kind of thing that would help. It would help give people a nice place to live that they can afford. You know, people can read more, of course, over at 1819news.com or if people want to send you emails about fireworks and dogs and all that, how do they get you directly? Yeah, I would say fireworks and dogs send me a message on Facebook. You can also email news at 1819news.com to get any of us at 1819. Good stuff. Erica, appreciate it. And we'll talk again next week. All right. Thanks Tom. Bye bye. There she goes. We're coming right back. More of Midday Mobile. Next. This is Midday Mobile with Sean Sullivan on FM Talk 1065. I jumped 125 to FM Talk 1065.

Hey, man. Jesse, you're there. Hey, Sean, sorry about that. I didn't hear you pick up. Yeah, you would talk planning districts. Yeah, the 68 ventures guys, I'm going to contact them today. We live just outside of a city limits in South Mobile County and ours, we collect tax, we collect sales tax for that city yet and they get to tell us what we can and cannot do with our personal property, but we can't vote. We get zero say so and what we can do on our property and what they can do in that town, but they get to dictate terms to us and I mean, far as I'm concerned, that goes back to 1776 of you can tell me what to do all you want as long as I get to pick my representation. I think that's what I don't know if he was a county commissioner at that point or maybe he was in the Senate, the Chris Elliott had argued and shame on me for not knowing how that law came down or if it did get just, I know he discussed it a lot. I don't know what happened after that, trying to make a change there. Yeah, and it got kicked out. You know, how horse trading goes and it got shot down, but you know, it needs to be decided by the court that if you want to be able to tell us what we can and cannot do on our property, you need to give us a voice. You know, if the county commission comes in and says, no, you can't do this, that's one thing because I have a voice in my county, but you know, this, you don't vote. Yeah, you don't vote. You don't vote in Bala battery elections. No, I can't go over there and you know, I mean, I can go sit in on city council meeting, but you know, that only goes so far. They can look at me and say, well, Jeff, you're not in the city limits, but yet we require these things of you. We require these things of you. They require a business license. They require us to collect tax for them. You know, part of our property tax for our personal property goes through them. You know, our fire tax, it doesn't go to St. Elmo volunteer. It goes to the city, Bala battery. Is that who calls? I mean, who would respond to a fire for you? I'm under the impression that the city of Bala battery would, and I'm sure they would. I mean, they're the closest to it. Okay, well, that that one's probably fair enough. Even though you don't get to vote, but at least there's at least there's a direct. It's a corollary there. Yes, but Sean, I want to thank you for for having your show and, you know, I don't say it in your in your little tag line giving a voice, but you know, you bring up a lot of good points that that politicians listen to. Well, we're lucky that way and lucky to have you all bringing up those subjects, man. Thanks for the call, Jesse, and we'll we'll keep on it. Thanks, man. All right, to the text line here, Matt says, and 68 ventures. Okay, wait, said it's called corporate limits, and it was voted on as was the 68 ventures project. The 68 ventures ain't just moving out in the country. They would change the character of the entire area. And Erica has really drunk the Kool-Aid on 68 ventures. They are 100% about the profit. Well, I don't know any of the people personally. I think all businesses, you know, I mean, it's good to be a citizen and with your business being a citizen, but the profit is the reason business is why you unlock the door, right? But I don't know what the I don't know what the laws are. I'm in some area where I don't know the specifics. I appreciate Jesse talking about that as well. Joe says, look at Baymanette Planning District. They're working on a similar project all the way south to Stapleton. Don't know if the same group, but they're trying to build it. She had a lot more coming in about 68. So we'll get to these when we come back. Also, I've got series of stories I want to do about half a world away. What might happen with Hezbollah and Israel? Something I think we should pay attention to. This is Midday Mobile with Sean Sullivan on FM Talk 10065. Check 135 FM Talk 10065 Midday Mobile on this Wednesday. Just checking with my buddy David McCreary at LCM Motorcourse. I'm going to guess, because I know what this guy does, a new inventory coming on the lot. Are you going to surprise me and say no, Sean? I don't have anything new coming. I'm not going to do that. We bought six yesterday. We've got a real nice GMC Acadia Denali. We bought a Ford F-150, but it's being sold as we speak. Got a nice Dodge Ram crew cab. Got a nice Jeep on Cherokee. We've got a few of those on the ground, actually. I don't know if we talked about this or not, but these cars have been more popular every day. We've got a 19 Subaru event. That's a seven passenger vehicle, under 100,000 miles. It's a really nice car. I've been driving it. I've probably put 1,500 miles on it myself. It's just a clean, really nice car, and the Subaru's are really dependable vehicle truck now. We've got a great selection of trucks and cars and smaller shoes to go with them. All right. Talk about people coming to see those vehicles, how they find you? We're highway mounting and plantation in Theodore. It's one miles south of IPN exit 15A. You can give us a call at 25137500 or 68 or go to the website, lcmotorcourse.com. Thank you, David. We'll check back with you soon. All right. There he goes. David McCrary checking in from LCM Motor Cars. I got to thinking about Subaru's... I don't know. At some point here, I have to, you know, finish putting my children in vehicles, which I get from LCM. But I think it's time for the Jeep thing is done, right? I mean, everybody's got a Jeep, so that doesn't stand out. And you can't buy a dang Tacoma or a forerunner cheap. And even people getting in the Suzuki Samurai coming back world, those are getting tougher to buy for cheap. How about the Subaru brat? You all remember that truck? The Subaru's pickup with the... You're not supposed to ride in the back of a pickup legally in the state of Alabama, but it had the seats in the back, had actual like seats in the back of the pickup. Kind of like an El Camino-looking rig. The Subaru brat. I'm going to find what... Probably somebody in this audience has one. I think that might be my weekend vehicle, a Subaru brat to make it as weird as possible. Steve said three mile police jurisdiction, maybe... Okay, but is that the... You talking about for planning versus PJ? I guess they're both PJs. But it's interesting to talk about police jurisdictions and planning jurisdictions. I don't know the planning as much as the police jurisdiction, but this thing that was always normal for me, mobile guy, that we had the PJ. You look at other cities in our state, let alone other states, and I'd say, well, you know, it's like the police jurisdiction and people look at me from other places and go, what are you talking about? I said, well, they said, well, there's the limits. I said, yeah, but the police go beyond that. It's just wasn't... It's a thing we've done here, but it's not ubiquitous. But this... Oh, Steve goes on to say, also President Biden signed an executive order stating, you can put affordable housing like apartments. You're talking about anywhere, any place regardless of covenants, restrictions, or local zoning. He did this this year. So, okay, but it was a... So, it's an executive order, but does that... I have to dig into that, Steve. Is that an executive order? Can that supersede state or municipal law being just an executive order, not a law? I don't know. I got my research, Steve, if you got some more info on that, please let me know at the text line, 3430106, 3430106. All right, listen, I'm going to go straight to that. I had some other stories to do, and we will try to get to those, but I'm looking at the phone screen here, and Rob is in Foley. Do you have a Subaru Brat, Rob? I do not, but I wanted to know, do you know why they put them seats in the back? For my kinfolk that stank? Yeah, that's a good one, but the excuse they used is import taxes on a car. It's cheaper than they are on a truck, so it was considered a car with two rows of seating. Please let me put that. Okay, so putting the seats in the back, which one would say, "Well, that's going to lead to people riding the back of the truck and get the ticket." That made it a car, not a truck. Yeah, made it a car. I'll be dark. Taxes, the import tax, the tariffs were less on a car than they are on a truck. Look at that, y'all. I appreciate you, Rob, because this audience knows, somebody in this audience knows every question out there. You just expanded my mind, Rob. Thank you. Appreciate it, man. All right, be good. So the Subaru Brat, who qualified as a car, you remember with the seats in the back, we were kids, like we'd ride in the back of a pickup, but then the law was like, "Yeah, you can't do that." Then I'd see the Subaru Brat with the seats in the back. I'm like, "Hey, they got seats in the back of that thing, Rob. Why would they put them in there if you weren't able to sit in there?" I think I know who this is. It can help me with this. Wayne, check it in from Sarah Land. Well, let me hear his voice. Hey, Wayne. Hey, Sean, how you doing? There we go. I know this, Wayne. So if somebody who would know about this executive order that I got a text from Steve about saying that Biden signed this executive order, what do you know? Because you're in that government world. Yes, and I was in a meeting in Washington year before last March of 2022, and I'm sorry, March of '23, it was last year, and the hood secretary spoke to us, and she said, and this was in a municipal leadership conference in National League of Cities, these were her exact words, Sean, the days of municipal governments excluding low- and no-income housing are over. That's what she said. That's what she meant. And the low-income, that's one threshold, but when she said the no-income housing, so what that means is, like, I'm the council rep on our planning commission. So when we have a developer that comes and wants to build 500 houses and the neighbors come out in force, you know, en masse against it, and I have to warn them because if you raise such a ruckus that this body votes to deny that developer from building these $300,000, $400,000 homes and putting them on the market, then they can very well turn around and go to the housing and urban development government agency and apply to build low-income housing, and we can say no all day long, and the federal government says yes, and it supersedes any authority that we have locally. The state can't do anything, the state can't do anything about it, the county can't do anything about it, the municipality cannot do anything about it. Wow, what a piece of leverage. Exactly, and I talked to Congressman Carl the very next day in his office, and they were not aware of it, but he said that they would be on the lookout, but now they've kicked it up from being the government agency writing policy, which is not the way it's done. You know, the Congress is the legislative body, not the agencies, but over the years. Well, they don't teach civics anymore, but the problem with that is that over the years that we've allowed these agencies, you know, the EPA, the departments of energy, hood, and all of these guys to mandate legislation from their offices, and that's not how it's supposed to be done. But I told our people when I came back, I said that this is what we're facing. Now, some of them chose not to believe it or to think that, well, you know, that's kind of the sky's falling type thing, but brother is here. And so that just adds another layer of something that I have to weigh when I'm looking at these large, and even mid-size development projects, is while it may not be ideal for what we want, we might have to take it just to keep from being stuck with the alternative. That is wild. Yes, sir. I mean, that shows where her exact words. Yeah. And so what are and Wayne, what would the do they have teeth in this? Because you're saying, okay, the developer says, okay, y'all deny me this, I'm going to put low income housing here, and I'll be defended by HUD. But it's I know the story said it was executive order by Biden, but it's it's a law. It's I mean, the federal government will supersede county and municipality and tell you you can't deny it. Yes, sir. There have already been instances in California and other places where this has happened. Wow. Wow. Local local zoning ordinances and local zoning commissions have denied projects and nope, can't do that. And they're there and it's it's happening. It's it really is this this guy that Biden's got to go, you know, yeah, it may not be the ideal. He may not be the ideal answer, but but he's a heck of a lot better than what we've got right now. Well, 100% you got that right. I just it can just be rescinded. I mean, it was the fact that it was executive order. But is this I mean, is this something that could be undone? Well, you know, I guess like any other executive order, if Trump or someone else gets into the White House and they they rescind executive order such and such, well, that's all fine and good for the next four years or eight years, you know, and but it can undo where it's already been done. And so, you know, we're probably safe right now because I'm not sure how long the process take. Well, I know how long the planning approval process takes. I don't know how much this executive fiat timeframe, but the timeframe is from a from a developer applying to hood for this and getting it actually boots on the ground. I guess the guess the just the marketplace protection for that would be the price that that developer pays for the the land to develop, right? I mean, because if it is expensive enough, they wouldn't able to return profit if they do low income. Maybe that's the only but that's but that's that's just a maybe. But but most low income and no income properties are going to be heavily subsidized. Yeah. Yeah. Right. So they're probably gonna sell it to the government at market value or ever had that works. And and then or the government or the government guarantees the payment, you know, the mortgage payment every month. I don't know. But one way, the other probably the developer would be safe. But the the neighbors, the neighbors are not going to be happy. Wayne, I got to wrap up this radio show so I can go start a development company here on the quick. Well, you know, all the ins and outs of it now. All right. Sullivan Ventures getting ready to hit the market. Appreciate your call, man. Call me back soon. You got it, buddy. Wow. Wow. From Subaru grads to executive orders and everything in between, this is midday mobile and we'll be right back. This is midday mobile with Sean Sullivan on FM Talk 106. Yeah, I guess I had forgotten to add in another part about the Subaru brand. I was discussing it earlier and Dalton was saying something during the break and I brought up some pictures of a Subaru brand. I forgot. Not only the seats in the back, but remember the hand holds there? Like the oh shucks handles in the backs of the seats in the back and then the oh shucks handles. So I'm thinking I'm going to be looking for, of course, now I've messed myself up. Anybody who had had a Subaru Brat for sale said, well, Sullivan's in the market marked that maybe up. Yeah, Subaru Brat for the weekends and I did see this and looking at it there are where this is motor trend or no auto evolution, the 2025 Subaru Brat revival. So I'm on to something here, Dalton. I mean, this is just a thing I had not been looking online, not reading about it, just being difficult and trying to find the vehicle nobody wants out there for my weekend truck. But now they're showing that Subaru is coming out with their Brat revival, a daring virtual design and intrepid $23,000 MSRP. All right. Okay. Now we're getting more in the Subaru Brat coming out with the quirky crossover highrider, whatever that is. Okay, it says here, read down the story. It said the model obviously followed the concept of the market like the Chevy El Camino. Yeah, in the Ford brand Chiro. I mean, you know, they were the original, you know, I shouldn't say that. They were the original non-binary vehicles out there. They were, were they a truck? Were they a car? I don't know. They were all, all cool. I mean, I like El Camino's too. But it said, yeah, the model obviously followed the concept of the Chevy El Camino, the Ford brand Chiro, but it did it in Subaru's way. For example, the original 1978 through 1994 featured crazy stuff like carpeting and welded rear facing plastic jump seats in the cargo area, bingo. So it's, they're down with it. So Subaru Brats in the news. All right. Before we wrap up here, and we'll have to, hopefully the war between Israel and Hezbollah didn't pop off before tomorrow because I had some things to say about that. And I really worry about where we're going with this. I've been worried since October 8th. Remember, will we get drug into a war with Lebanon? Let alone, we have the stories I don't was talking about this morning and tan about, well, we might not have, I told you all this stuff was going to happen. Like with Ukraine, they're like, well, we're not going to have, we might not have American troops there. But what about contractors? This is how it happens. It happens every dang time. You got to have some old hay seed from the Gulf Coast saying it when there are all these people that are supposed to be way smart in Washington. Come on. But let's get to what's really important out there. But other than Subaru Bratz and zoning planning jurisdictions, I knew this would happen as well. And I think I said it way back when story from WK or G says fake versions of ozempic, the injectable diabetes drug, many use for weight loss. I would argue they all use it for weight loss. I don't like a minority of the people that use it for diabetes. World Health Organization confirmed that counterfeit semi-glutide, which is, I guess, the active ingredient of ozempic was found in the United States, UK and Brazil last year. So here we go that the street, can we start doing this? You know, how with drugs, whenever the law enforcement makes a big drug bust, and they'll say the street value of these drugs or the street, can we start talking about the street value of ozempic out there? They say that they're now the people are buying, I guess, counterfeit. I don't think it has fentanyl in it, but counterfeit ozempic out there on the market. So the spokesperson for Nova Nordisk, which that company is about to make every dollar ever printed, said the company is working with the FDA to crack down on the counterfeits. I bet you they are. So there's, so the World Health Organization's warning y'all that there is knockoff ozempic out there that's really not ozempic doesn't have, they have some of the chemical, I think they said they had, they put insulin in there instead. Let's see. Yeah, something like that. But yes, so we are waiting for two things. The first ozempic overdose story, and now I have the other one with the, you know, the price gets up and off here. You have the knockoff, the imitation, the fake ozempic. And I'm also waiting for a heist, the first ozempic heist, either way, the people you should knock over pharmacies for pills for the op8 pills, wait for people to start knocking over places for ozempic. So that's one, the other story I mentioned earlier, I do want to get to this one. This is also from WKRG, says Mobile City Councilman proposes Nori's ordinance change, just in time for Independence Day. I added that, said the due to multiple noise complaints, a mobile city councilman proposed a change in the noise ordinance cut off time within residential areas. The current noise ordinance for residential areas is enforced from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. every night of the week. District one city councilman Corey Penn proposed the noise ordinance instead begins at nine p.m. from Sunday through Thursday. The original rules would remain in effect for Friday and Saturday. So moving the new noise ordinance to nine from 10 o'clock. It did say residents planning on hosting events can apply for a noise waiver through the city council, but still must comply with the 10 p.m. rule. So what do you think about that city council may move the noise ordinance when you're having band practice or whatever you're doing back to nine o'clock from 10 o'clock on Sunday through Thursday. So that's some of the things city councils working on there. So watch it. Hey, we'll pick this up tomorrow. Let's do it again, right? Midday mobile tomorrow. We'll see you at noon. [Music]
