Starting point is 00:00:07 Welcome to the I Love Seville Show, guys. It's Thursday afternoon in downtown Charlottesville. My name is Jerry Miller. It's a pleasure to connect with you guys on the most watched and listen to media platform in all of Central Virginia. And frankly, it's not even close. 27 social media and podcasting platforms this show is airing upon right now. We encourage you, the viewer, and listener to participate in the discussion. Offer your thoughts, your perspective, push back on what we're saying.
Starting point is 00:00:36 offer more perspective on what we're talking about. We want to be the water cooler of content and conversation. We do not want to originate the news, break the news. We want to offer commentary on it. There's a lot we're going to cover on the program today. I'm going to ask the parents of Woodbrook Elementary Students, do you feel like you're an afterthought right now? Woodbrook Elementary parents, grandparents, students,
Starting point is 00:01:07 students and anyone associated to the elementary school. Do you feel ignored right now by Atmore County Public Schools? There was a town hall, what, eight days ago at Holly Meade Elementary, that absolutely imploded. ACPS sent out a superintendent, ACPS sent out a principal, the principal of the school, the communications director of ACPS, the chairwoman of the Amarok County School Board, and the district representative of the school board, and they met in the gymnasium of Hallamade Elementary
Starting point is 00:01:49 to try to offer transparency with very angry and concerned parents over a child predatory sex scandal. Nothing of similar ilk or magnitude was offered at Holly Meade. Why? Why is Woodbrook Elementary, excuse me, why is Woodbrook Elementary in afterthought are being ignored?
Starting point is 00:02:19 I want to talk about that on the program today. I want to talk Lloyd Snook firing back at Livable Seaville and its co-chair Matthew Gilliken on social media. Shots have been fired, and Snook is absolutely willing to man the bazooka, and fire immediately back at Gilliken and livable Seville over the 2000 holiday drive boondoggle the low barrier shelter that is now eight months into being purchased eight more than eight months ago six point two million dollars was spent of taxpayer dollars to purchase a brick Georgian office building of the 27,000 square foot variety and nothing's been done. Gillican of livable Seaville tries to compare
Starting point is 00:03:06 the quicksand nature of progress at Holiday Drive to a jail. Was it $75 million for the jail? He's saying $70 million in his Facebook. To a $70-plus million jail project that's been in the works for a long period of time. And Lloyd Snook was not having it. He did offer clarity in the shots fired commentary from the counselor, Charlottesville, Lloyd Snook, how difficult it has been to build this holiday drive shelter. He compared 2,000 holiday drive and building a low barrier shelter
Starting point is 00:03:43 to being akin to flying, to inventing a plane while flying it. How do you invent a plane while flying it, Lloyd Snowk? I guess that's the point he's making. He's saying it's impossible to do. He's basically saying 2,000 holiday drive, His words is inventing a plane while flying it. I want to unpack his commentary on the program today. I also learned an interesting tidbit today.
Starting point is 00:04:16 There's 10 cannabis stores. There's 10 weed retail stores in the city of Charlottesville, including four on the downtown mall. Scuma boutique dispensary in front of the program, David Tricorici, who's got a test, a Tesla truck, an Elon cyber truck that he drives around town. Was the, Judah, you don't like the cyber truck?
Starting point is 00:04:41 Weave you in on a two shot. David Truckerich, he watches the program. You throwing shade on David? No. Alan Kajin accepts your apology, by the way. I'm throwing shade on the cyber truck. The bi-coastal real estate magnet, Alan Kajin, who watches and listens to just about every one of our shows,
Starting point is 00:04:57 said, please tell Judah Wickhauer, I've accepted his apology. Very kind. David Triccori, you're throwing shade on his vehicle of choice? The cyber truck? How do you feel about the cyber truck? I have no beef with the cyber truck. I don't have a beef with it either.
Starting point is 00:05:15 I was flabbergast and appalled, disgusted, nauseated with the Charlottesville subreddit that was trying to attack front of the program Corbyn Snow because he had a cyber truck, a truck that he chose to vehicle wrap with Snow's Garden Center branding. Then he tried to do, I thought was a genius kind of like flip book of the brand by parking the Snow's Garden Center wrapped cyber truck put next to one of the first trucks that were ever used at Snow's Garden Center generations ago.
Starting point is 00:05:52 It's a family business. That generational truck is on the road on Avon extended. Right outside Snow's Garden Center, it's like part of their branding, almost part of their signage. Yeah, isn't that light blue? I think it's light blue. And Corbyn parks his recently purchased cyber truck that he spent thousands of dollars wrapping with Snow's Garden Center branding right next to it.
Starting point is 00:06:16 I'm like, this is great. This is clever. He's showing the flipbook or the evolution of a brand from like an American pickers, antique pickup light blue, maybe Chevrolet to a Tesla cyber truck. And then the Charlottesville subreddit attacked them. I mean, the amount of hypocrisy these days is just insane. People, you know, championing Teslas for their, you know, as EV vehicles until they decide they don't like, they don't like Musk anymore.
Starting point is 00:06:53 And all of a sudden, it's like a freaking federal crime to own the exact same vehicle. I mean, I'm sure everybody here has seen the stickers on the backs of Teslas that say things like, I hate Musk, or I bought this before everybody hated Musk or whatever. I mean, it's crazy. I mean, the effort of, you know, I've talked about othering on the show before, and I learned about it from someone who was extremely, extremely, liberal. And now I see them using that playbook left, right and center. The Charlestful subreddit now trying to docks or blacklist small business owners that use AI in any capacity.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Yeah. Make it make sense. I mean, I'll say that again. The, the, I'll say that again, the, Charlottesville subreddit, now trying to docks or blacklist or blackball small business owners and their small businesses. Yeah. If they use artificial intelligence in any capacity. As if the small businesses in Charlottesville don't have enough of an uphill climb, enough struggles. Now people, like you said, some of the people on the Charlottesville subreddit are. suggesting that that these same small businesses
Starting point is 00:08:33 who are barely making it with minuscule margins are that they should give money to to big advertising corporations to advertise
Starting point is 00:08:49 rather than using a tool like AI. Absolutely. Insanity. What's happening in the world today? This is the same Charlottesville subreddit that was trying to docks small business owners and blacklist their respective locally owned and operated businesses
Starting point is 00:09:06 if there was any ties to Donald Trump with ideology or voting a long list created. I was appalled by the Trump blacklist that Charlottles subreddit was trying to do. I'm even more appalled by the AI blacklist that the Charlottesville subreddit was trying to do.
Starting point is 00:09:28 And that's due to what we care why I call it the dregs of society. Some of them are. Anonymous. There are some pushback. People that can flex muscles in anonymity online are the drags of society. At least with Facebook, your name is associated with the post. Many cases, your photo is as well. And you have institutional history using the platform Facebook.
Starting point is 00:09:53 It's been around a generation now. The first, not the first, my first. space, Frenchster the first, but really the first that survived Facebook. Charlottesville subreddit, anyone can create a burger account and anyone can stir the pot. Croze Seafood Supply, the fantastic seafood retailer in Crozay, jumps in that Charlestful subreddit thread and says, guys, we use AI for our social media post. This was the same small business, Croze Seafood Supply, that said if this war in Iran continues, Right now we have a peace agreement in place.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Let's see how long that lasts. The straight is open. J.D. Vance is saying 12 or 15 or 20 million barrels of oil have been pushed through the straight in the last 24 hours alone. That's awesome. Gas is plummeting. It's below four. It's nowhere near. That has nothing to do with Hormuz.
Starting point is 00:10:49 We know that. We know that. We know that. It's nowhere near where gas was at the start of this war. $2.79 at the Bell Air. on Ivy Road. Why do I remember that? Because I want a bottle of McCallon 12 from Conan Owen who's watching the program. But still, it's dropping. Crozay seafood supply in the midst of this war with Iran posted on social media. If this war continues, we may have to close down. And a number of
Starting point is 00:11:16 locally owned and operated businesses are on the cusp of closing as well. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a shortlist. We're in the brokerage business, the deal-making business. We have a short list right now of seven iconic and institutional businesses in Charlottesville that are off that are for sale in pocket listing capacity or in hush hush capacity and it's not just restaurants the type of businesses that you would know where they're like find me a buyer i need to exit i can't do this anymore but we have to do this off the record hush hush off market pocket listing capacity because there's fear that if this gets out
Starting point is 00:11:58 there, we'll lose employees or the few, or the customers that we have where we're barely clinging for survival. And that still may happen. Production has been slowed on gas. The prices have gone down because the United States has
Starting point is 00:12:16 been dipping into our reserves. And as you've stated before, summer is a rough time for for gas prices to be high. So I think we're going to have to wait through the summer and see how things go
Starting point is 00:12:33 before we say that everything is good. Richard Fox watching the program from Rosalind Forum. Derek Bond watching the program, the melting pot and Moe's original barbecue owner. Michael Pruitt, Curtis Schaber, just to name a few, Neil Williamson, the president of the Free Enterprise Forum, print radio on television watching the show.
Starting point is 00:12:51 I watched the Amarok County Board of Supervisor meeting last night, Tom Starchel and Mark McKinney watching the program, Barbara Becker-Tilly, Philip Dahl, the mayor of Scottsville watching the show. Did you guys in the Admiral County Board of Supervisors meeting see any mention or deep conversation about the Admiral County Public Schools, Child Predatory, Predator Sex Scandal? We have to take a deep dive on this. Dr. Matthew Haas, the embattled superintendent, is now in a messy divorce with his employer.
Starting point is 00:13:31 That divorce is obviously about compensation, the remaining amount of money that's due on his contract. Will he get any kind of lump sum payout in his retirement? We know what it's about. The school board, which is clearly in a pinch, chose Dr. Haas's right-hand, person, the flag waiver of equity grading and diversity, equity, and inclusion to be the interim or acting superintendent. I was infuriated by that move because I saw it as a slap in the face to parents that right now are in their most vulnerable state as parents.
Starting point is 00:14:17 If you've read the allegations or the article in the Daily Progress yesterday of what Mike Sweetie is a letter. to have done to these students. Did you end up reading the article? No, I haven't read it yet. It's, it's, I don't particularly want it. You probably don't want to do it. It is the most disgusting acts an adult can do that are in that article. And the Hall Spenser story from yesterday. The most disgusting acts an adult can do.
Starting point is 00:14:47 An ACPS picks Haas's right-hand person. Yeah. where was the discussion at the board of supervisors meeting yesterday having someone that is the right-hand person to haws be the interim leader is damning it's concerning it's red flagging and then how about the woodbrook elementary parents how many woodbrook elementary parents are watching the program right now
Starting point is 00:15:11 goodness gracious i've been hearing from you guys left and right you know the woodbrook elementary parents feel as if they're being ignored as if they're being disregarded or forgotten or afterthoughted. There was a town hall, Judah, at Holly Mead, and out that town hall, the superintendent, the director of communications with the school system, the school board chair, and the district representative at the school board
Starting point is 00:15:37 showed up to answer questions for parents for 90 minutes on the record with a camera and a microphone in the room so it could be documented and paper the trail. Nothing has been done at Woodbrook. And we can make a legitimate argument that what happened at Woodbrook was more egregious. Egregious. Lucifer, devilish, Satan-driven. You had two teachers at Woodbrook, one with child pornography, another Mike Sweeney initially worked there.
Starting point is 00:16:14 The police investigation clearly is connecting dots to Woodbrook Elementary. Woodbrook Elementary parents, do you feel like you've been ignored? And does it not infuriate you? This whole thing continues to implode all around ACPS. Aaron Davison, welcome to the show.
Starting point is 00:16:40 T.J. Starrgel, welcome to the show. Barbara Becker-Tilly watching the program. What are your thoughts, viewers and listeners? Hank Martin will get to your comments. Conan Owen will get to your comments. The school board with who they select, Judah, and lower third should be rotated on screen. Richard Fox will get to your comments. The school board with who they select as the superintendent of schools.
Starting point is 00:17:08 The school board needs to clean house. It needs to be a national search. It needs to be a total house cleaning of the superintendent's office. There needs to be clear communication of how a teacher was able to transition from a group home as an employee within Almoreau County where allegations surfaced of this kind of behavior, then allow to take a job at Woodbrook Elementary
Starting point is 00:17:39 and then transition to Holly Meade Elementary. Whoever approved, whoever green lit that professional transition needs to be microscoped immediately. Protocols need to be put in place that strengthen or reinforce or offer much more specific guidance to hiring, communication protocols did to be put in place?
Starting point is 00:18:13 It is, we still don't have an answer, as John Blair said yesterday, of why Sweeney was allowed to go from Woodbrook to Holly Me. We don't have an answer. And one of the Woodbrook parents sent me this yesterday. Woodbrook Elementary is one of the most significant elementary schools at Albemarle County where it's ESL students. English is a second language. And this parent who's asked for anonymity said,
Starting point is 00:18:41 Jerry, how many of these students may have potentially come across Sweeney where English is a second language is keeping them from communicating with authorities? Yeah, that's a good point. We'll give some attention to partner of the show, Charlottesville Sanitary Supply and Charlottesville Swimming Pool Company. online at Charlottesville Swimmingpool Company.com and online at Charlestville Sanitary Supply.com. This family-owned business is five-generation strong.
Starting point is 00:19:12 They've run and operated the business for three generations. They've been around for 62 years. Anything swimming pool related, including swimming pool construction, water testing, a swimming pool robot for cleaning your pool, a swimming pool cover or swimming pool shade, you contact Charlottesville Swimming Pool Company at Charlottleswimmingpool Company.com and anything sanitary or cleaning related, including
Starting point is 00:19:38 Mela vacuums, Bono Wood Floor products, Charlottesale Sanitary Supply. They have an e-commerce platform that offers you free and market delivery. John Blair's photo on screen. Viewers and listeners, put your comments in the feed. I'm going to relay them on air right now. Jerry, I agree about the article. My God, All I can say is let's pray that Dr. Haas and the school board can immediately work on a policy that better ensures the safety of every child in the division. The article John's talking about is the story in yesterday's Daily Progress written by Hall Spencer on what Mike Sweeney is accused of doing to these elementary age students.
Starting point is 00:20:20 I read this article over breakfast yesterday. My jaw literally hit the breakfast table, ladies and gentlemen. but how deplorable the allegations this man is facing. You're talking a Lucifer walking around in our community here. John Blair continues. Perhaps the best thing we could see is Dr. Hayes introduce a policy that is immediately adopted by the school board on July 9th that ensures no child shall be left alone with adults
Starting point is 00:20:56 and doors are closed except for the school nurses for medical privacy reasons. It's 100%. how a man was able to go into a room that was windowless and cameraless in a nook and cranny of an elementary school and lock a door from the inside while holding a walkie-talkie that allowed him to track the whereabouts of administrators, that is a recipe for deviant behavior. Even if it's not, it's just a terrible idea.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Richard Foxx watching the program. Smart guy. Not sure placing the lady that's in charge of diversity and equity grading in charge will help anything. Almore County Public Schools wants to have this blow over. Draw less attention to what is already coming their way. With deaths racking up on the trail, they better figure this low barrier shelter out and do it soon. He's talking about Holiday Drive as well.
Starting point is 00:21:56 Richard Fox, we appreciate your comments. get to Lloyd Stook in a matter of moments. Hank Martin's watching the program. Almore County Public Schools is facing a profound systemic crisis of broken trust and failed student safety. With an acting superintendent in place for the 2026, 27 year, the board has the time to do this right. Hiring the next leader cannot be business as usual.
Starting point is 00:22:22 It cannot be installation ever again. Installation and coronation ever again. To heal this institutional trauma, the superintendent search, must set a fresh precedent. The era of defensive insularity is over. This community, indeed, the world, awaits their resolve or lack thereof. Bill McChesney says,
Starting point is 00:22:50 cyber trucks are not good vehicles. Barbara Becker-Tilly agreed. The teachers also need to demand this from their administration. What is the Admiral County Education, the Admiral County Teacher Union doing here? Is Mike Sweeney protected? by the Almorale County Teacher Union. These were some comments that Deep Throat made yesterday
Starting point is 00:23:14 or the day before and direct messages to me. Is the Admiral County Teacher Union protecting Mike Sweeney offering counsel to Mike Sweeney, consultation to Mike Sweeney, or resources in any capacity to Mike Sweeney? Is the Almore County Teacher Union in any capacity offering counsel, consultation, or resources in any capacity,
Starting point is 00:23:39 to the Woodbrook teacher that got arrested for child porn. And we need a statement must be issued by the Almorough County Teacher Union on where they stand with this. Because the silence from the Almoral County Teacher Union is growing loud by the day. Ginny Who, thank you for the retweet. Chuda Wickhauer comments? I mean, we're just seeing mess after mess. And in all of this, yeah, I think the parents deserve some accountability from the school system, from the school board. And I hope that that what's her name?
Starting point is 00:24:43 Mays? Dr. Hayes? Chandra. Yeah, Dr. Chandra Hayes is just an interim superintendent while they look for someone who doesn't have any connection to any of what's going on right now. And the only reason this isn't gaining more community engagement is because it's happening in the summer. If this story had broken in the middle of the school year, you best believe that there was, would be parents lined up outside of Woodbrook Elementary and outside of Holly Meade Elementary folks. Oh yeah. The only community infuriation reprieve that the school system is receiving right now is because it's summertime. Mm-hmm. Next topic on today's show, the water cooler of content and conversation has got to be Lloyd Snook's comments. Yeah. Matthew Gilliken, the co-chair of livable Seaville,
Starting point is 00:25:51 who I find to be one of the most, I guess I should choose my words carefully. Matthew Gilliken loves himself some Matthew Gilligan. He offers a comparison to 2000 Holiday Drive to the Charlottesville-Almorel County Regional Jail. For some reason, Lloyd-Sinke decides to respond. I'm not sure why Lloyd-Sin-Kook would respond to this, but Lloyd Snook responded to it.
Starting point is 00:26:23 Gilliken says, this is the co-chair of livable Seville here. It seems worth noting Gilliken says that Charlottesville and Almoreal County will complete a 70 million jail project before they build a year-round low-barrier homeless shelter. So one sentence post on social media. The former mayor of Charlottesville and a current Charlottesville City counselor who's in the middle of his second term, he also loves himself some Lloyd Snook. I'm a huge fan of Lloyd Snook. He's 30 feet away from where I'm sitting right now, his law firm.
Starting point is 00:26:56 See the man every day. I love a snark here. He says, and I quote, I'm going to read verbatim in response to Lloyd's and Matthew Gilliken's comments. This is what Lloyd Snook said. Matthew, if it will help your heartburn any, consider that we have been considering the jail expansion for about four years now, that we are legally obligated to have a jail, that the funding sources have been known for years and the amount that the city will spend each year on the jail project
Starting point is 00:27:26 will be about 15% of what we will spend this year on the homelessness problem. We are trying to invent a plane while we're flying it, Matthew. Gilliken then responds to Snook with more snark than... Intelligence? than intelligence? Judah's words, not mine. Those were Judah's words.
Starting point is 00:27:50 They're applicable. I mean, Snook pointed it out pretty clearly. unequivocally that, you know, the jail expansion has been going on for some time, that we are legally obligated to have a jail, and that the money, it's not like the money is all coming from taxpayer funds, and additionally, the fact that they're spending more this year on the homelessness problem. that doesn't say that Gilligan doesn't have a semi appropriate point here and there but putting it all together
Starting point is 00:28:30 it's just comparing the jail to 2000 Holiday Drive is not a true comp or an apples to apples comparison no maybe if they'd been ideated and and accounted for
Starting point is 00:28:44 the city doesn't legally have to have a low barrier shelter Right. The city, I'm of the mindset, and you're going to call me a dick for saying this, but I'm of the mindset. The city should say you cannot camp in public places. You cannot store your possessions in public places. This is not allowed in Charlottesville. And that would solve Charlottesville's homeless problem. The city could say, if you're caught camping in public places,
Starting point is 00:29:17 and storing your possessions in public places, you can be arrested and fined. And repeated offenders will be jailed. And that will solve the city's homeless problem. This happens in cities and towns and jurisdictions all over America. This would not mean Charlottesville's innovative or unique. It happens all over America. The U.S. Open, one of the headlines we're going to talk about on the show
Starting point is 00:29:47 In fact, you could put it on screen right now. There's four UVA golfers that are playing in the U.S. Open in Southampton, New York, and one of the toughest golf courses in America, Shinnak Golf Club. Our family spends considerable time in South Hampton, New York, and will spend a fair amount of time here at the end of June and into early mid-July. I will be recharging batteries during that period of time
Starting point is 00:30:20 still a few weeks away and not on air. In Southampton, there's no homeless problem. You can't do that. You can't camp. There's no panhandling. There's no storage of possessions. You're not allowed
Starting point is 00:30:37 to do that. It is one of the cleanest places I've ever seen. I'll put it in perspective. you would be stopped and talking to if you were walking down what they called the village in Southampton, basically our downtown mall. If you were roller skating or rollerblading and you were a gal and just wearing a bikini top, or if you were a guy skateboarding without a shirt on,
Starting point is 00:31:06 the police would stop and talk to you. It is clean, it is safe, it is family friendly, it thrives in the season. We're in the 50-year anniversary of the downtown mall. The 250-year anniversary of America. We are home to Ashlawn, Montpelier, Monticello, and the University of Virginia. Tourists from all over the globe are going to flock to Charlottesville because of Montpelier, Ashlawn, Monticello, UVA. They're going to come to the downtown mall, and what are they going to see? two side streets
Starting point is 00:31:43 that have been shuttered for re-bricking makes no sense why they're re-bricking in the summertime certainly not during the 50-year anniversary they're going to see a houseless population albeit a much diminished one because they're at tent town at
Starting point is 00:31:59 zero east high street or under free bridge some of them some of them right and they're going to see how many empty storefronts if I was coming from the the pavilion inside to the Omni. This is just off the top of my head and help me out here, Judah. Empty storefronts. Yeah. You ready? Draft taperoom.
Starting point is 00:32:21 Comey Well Skybar. Yeah. Just off the top of my head, right? Is Al-Qazam empty right now? No, I don't know. I would imagine, but somebody could have moved in in the interim. Six, seven empty storefronts on the mall. Yeah. And Snook offering, put the Snook headline back on screen. Look at the issue, look at the boondoggle the city has found itself in. Here you have the former mayor and a city counselor saying 2,000 holiday drive,
Starting point is 00:32:58 this $6.2 million purchase we made for a low barrier shelter. It's his words. We are trying to invent a plane while we're flying in it. While we're flying it, yeah. While we're flying it. Ladies and gentlemen, the city had to be. no business whatsoever. That's what he said. Had no business whatsoever purchasing real estate to be a low barrier shelter without a plan in place. The city had no business being a real estate
Starting point is 00:33:26 developer, has no business getting into the low barrier shelter game. We're eight months in and nothing has been done except for a piece of real estate taking off the tax rolls, tax rolls, which puts more of a burden on us as taxpayers and as city residents or business. and real estate owners, even tenants. Conan Owen says, here are some of the other vacancies on the mall. Thank you, Conan. 10,000 villages, Bonnie and Reed,
Starting point is 00:34:01 the Code retail spaces next to Violent Crown, the Wells Fargo Bank Hall, draft tap room owned by the Masons, Covenwell Skybar owned by Alan Hageen. Yeah. Is Al-Qazam open, Conan? Vanessa Parkhill is watching the program. She says, I'd like to see Dr. Meg Bryce on a panel for an independent review and investigation of the Almoreau County Public School System.
Starting point is 00:34:39 That's a brilliant idea. How apropos would that be? That would be a brilliant idea. I would love to see Dr. Meg Bryce investigate the Almer County Public Schools and Allison Spilman. Oh, man. I would love to see that happen. I would love to see her investigate Matthew Haas, Meg Bryce. And I bet you she would do it in a heartbeat.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Jeremy Wilson is watching in eastern Tennessee. He has no ties to Almaro County in any capacity. The reason he watches the I Love Seville show is because he learned about the I Love Seville show through the Jerry and Jerry show. He's a UVA sports fan. He leaves this comment. Any man who harms a child is pure evil. a complete, worthless piece of S-H-I-T. What's more disturbing is that the administration is trying to cover up these despicable actions.
Starting point is 00:35:33 How dare they try to look the other way? 100%. I appreciated Lloyd Snook's honesty with the challenge the city is facing. Yeah. Next headline, what do you got you to Wickhauer? Let's see. We've got the cannabis legislation. I learned this potentially passing soon. I learned this today.
Starting point is 00:36:05 In the city of Charlottesville, there's 10 cannabis retail shops, 10 wheat stores. 10 stores where you can buy wheat. And four on the downtown mall? Four on the downtown mall. I'm not even sure what couple of them are. There's scuba. I know what, something leaf. The one next to Hamilton's, the hidden leaf.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Yeah. There's one over there by Lynn Goldman's. Oh, is that the one that advertises Narcan in the window? No, that's the beautiful mind. Okay. That says, we got Narcan here for you. You're going to, oh, if you're going to take heroin and you're going to overdose on heroin, make sure you buy your Narcan from us here.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Never thought I'd see in a market for selling Narcan, but here we are. On the downtown. on the downtown mall. There's four weed stores on the downtown mall. And there's 10 in the city of Charlottesville, ladies and gentlemen. Weed is big business and an economic driver of the city of Charlottesville. Never would I say, never did I think I would ever say. And you're looking at someone who's about as pro-cannabis as it gets.
Starting point is 00:37:29 We should be legal. We should be decriminalized. It should be taxed. The weed should be regulated in some capacity so you're not buying poisonous, bad weed, chemical-ritted weed, fentanyl-laced weed. It should be heady. It should be rich in THC. When you're smoking your weed, make sure your pipe and your glassware is resin-free.
Starting point is 00:37:56 The flour is better for you than vapes. You don't know what's in those damn cartridges. De-criminalize it, legalize it, tax it. regulate it, let the money go to somewhere. It's being sold anyway, and no one's doing anything about it. The point of this story is Spamberger is getting out of her way when it comes to weed. We have 10 of them right now in the city of Charlottesville. Once this legislation kind of gets flushed through the political and politician pipelines,
Starting point is 00:38:30 let's see what that number 10 goes up to. Are you net looking at that? the next merging industry in city of Charlottesville. It's a perfect community for it. UVA students, intellectuals,
Starting point is 00:38:50 music scene, outdoorsy scene, rich in money. Not to mention a lot of older and elderly people are finding the benefits of using it for all kinds of things, whether it's pain relief. Judah Wickhauer's data,
Starting point is 00:39:06 perfect example. You would open up the freezer at the Wickhauer's house and Judah Wickhauer grabbed a gummy said he was high for two and a half days. Didn't you say that? I don't think it was quite that long. He was cooking some turkey and some mashed potatoes. He ate a heady gummy
Starting point is 00:39:23 before he started cooking the turkey and mashed potatoes. Next thing he knew he found himself on the sofa drooling and watching the three stooges. Not quite. Tax it. Legalize it. regulate it sell it, smoke it,
Starting point is 00:39:41 enjoy it. Ten of them, Judah. That is a lot. How many breweries are in the city of Charlottesville? It's a little different. How is it a little different? You should ask how many bars there are in Charlottesville. How many breweries are in the city of Charlottesville?
Starting point is 00:39:59 Three notch. Three notch. The dispensaries. Rockfish has got two. Brewing their own flowers. That's three. You don't know that. Oh, come on.
Starting point is 00:40:09 You don't know if the dispensary are not growing it or not. Rockfish has got two, three notches, one, that's three. Decipher's four. Hogwaller. Hogwaller's five. Superfly. Superfly six.
Starting point is 00:40:25 South Street close. Yeah. But we'll reopen. Not as a brewery. Are you sure? 100% positive. We broke this news on I Love Civo for subscribers. I know, I know, and I've since heard stuff about.
Starting point is 00:40:37 A sports bar. You know exactly what's happening there. All right. From the folks that run the Fitzroy, they're opening up a bar, sports bar, heady upper end in the South Street location. They're not going to be brewing beer there. Six that we know of. What are we missing, folks?
Starting point is 00:40:55 Two rockfish, Aldwell are three, decipher four, three notch five. Random row. Superfly six. Random row seven. Great one. That's seven with Random Row. There's seven breweries in the city of Charlottesville. there's Ted weed stores.
Starting point is 00:41:21 Hank Martin says, weed stores can't help but grow here. Georgia Gilmer, we did read the story about the crossings, supportive housing and the Seville Weekly. Judah wanted to talk about that on the show.
Starting point is 00:41:37 We almost brought it up on the program today. A man was dead in the apartment in the crossing and was rotting in there for an extended period of time. In the crossings, they're complaining about mold, cockroaches, feces in urine where it's not supposed to be, the most inhabitable, uninhabitable of conditions possible. Here's the reality.
Starting point is 00:42:04 We are funding housing for the disenfranchised. But funding the housing for the disenfranchised, the actual creation of the housing, is the easy part. It's the maintenance and the upkeep in perpetuity after it's built, that's the expensive and difficult part. We're going to spend $20 million at 2,000 Holiday Drive, and Lloyd Snook compares 2,000 Holiday Drive
Starting point is 00:42:32 in this low barrier shelter to inventing a plane while flying it. Guess what, Counselor Snook? The real doozy of the effort is funding that shelter, maintaining the conditions of the quality and the safety and the cleanliness of the... a low barrier shelter where convicts and sex offenders and drug addicts and alcoholics will be sleeping and staying 24-7-365. What you're doing now is the easy part and you're struggling to do it.
Starting point is 00:43:05 Wait until you have 80 sex offenders and convicts and drug addicts and alcoholics and sex offenders in the place at one time. What do you think is going to happen? the crossings by the Wendy's over here and Vinegar Hill that's where it's located by the Wendy's and McDonald's. There's an investigative report done by Nathan Alderman.
Starting point is 00:43:33 The communications director for the Admiral County Democrats is a journalist in Charlottesville reporting on politics in the news. I'll say that again. The communications director for the Admiral County Democrats and Nathan Altervin the Almore County and Charlottesville City Democrats communications director
Starting point is 00:43:52 Nathan Alderman is also the the print journalist in Charlestville for Civo Weekly he writes an investigative piece on the crossing
Starting point is 00:44:04 the what do you call it affordable housing what do you call yeah affordable housing they call it supportive housing Dave Norris led the effort to build this by the Wendy's
Starting point is 00:44:16 in this article, a man was dead in his apartment and had been dead for days before they found him. You know why this 59-year-old man was found? The odor, I would imagine. The corpse, his body was rotting in the smell, was putrid. I mean, that sounds like more than 24 hours. No, no, no. You want to hear a story? I had, I used to live in Redfields.
Starting point is 00:44:46 As to my parents. In Redfields on Rockledge Drive, we had in Redfields a deep freezer in our basement, in our laundry room in our basement. We purchased, we used to be on a cow share where me and my buddy would buy a cow and he would deliver a third of the cow to my family in coolers. We bought this deep freezer from Lowe's for $200. hundred bucks. My thinking was this, I'm going to save
Starting point is 00:45:20 money on ground beef, on cow. Did he grind any of it up for you? I had all the parts. I had the steaks. I had the toucice. I had the ground beef. I didn't have the nuts, but I had all the
Starting point is 00:45:36 various parts of the cow. Had the tongue, no testes, Judah. Had the hip. I had all various parts. The tongue is actually pretty good. A third of the cow in my house. My wife and I go away for the day. The deep freezer was on the fritz. In the middle of the suburb, over the course of one day, a third of a cow smell so bad, this was in the basement, that when we entered the main floor of our house, you could not walk in the smell
Starting point is 00:46:08 was so bad. Rotting, third of a cow. This man in the cross, was dead in his apartment for days. If after 18 hours or 19 hours, we could barely walk into the basement of our home, what was the crossings, the conditions in this apartment building, this affordable housing apartment building, how bad were they that a corpse could rot for days in a room
Starting point is 00:46:41 without being found? Think about that. We couldn't be in our house after 18 hours. This guy was dead for dead. days. It's a little different. How is it different? Do you really want me to... How is it different? Yeah, and William McChesney's right. This is completely akin to the issues with maintaining Crescent Hall. And he corrects me, cows don't have testicles, Jerry, bulls do. Sorry, weird. There were no testicles. I said there were no testicles. Now I know why. Because the cows, don't have testicles the bulls do sorry bill thank you for correcting me on the
Starting point is 00:47:31 water cooler of content and conversation next headline what do you got you to what car are there any left one or two see lucky cat Conan Owen sent this to me he's the owner of surf speeding a new vendor is coming to dairy market and that new vendor is lucky cat Asian food that's the same people that have the sushi spot. Is that true? I believe so.
Starting point is 00:48:05 I don't have that answer. You're offering, I don't know. Let me see. You're offering clarity to me. I'm learning from you on this. Lucky Cat, Asian food. I like the name. Actually, I like the name.
Starting point is 00:48:22 Do you know why they call it that? So there's the bad luck ramen bar underneath three-notched brewing. Lucky Cat? I don't know. Go ahead. And I believe the lucky cat is an offshoot of them.
Starting point is 00:48:43 And I think the lucky cat is in reference to those, you know, those cats that have the arms that go like, that go like, that go like this. I'm trying to get my, I'm trying to get my arm in the, you've, everybody, come on, you've all seen them. I know. And little black cat figures in Japanese, Japanese restaurants. and maybe Chinese, I don't know how widespread across the...
Starting point is 00:49:10 You're getting in the weeds, Judah. Of course I am. Finish your commentary. What commentary? I'm just rambling. Jason Hampshire, 100%. You'd be safer in a tickle fight in a phone booth with a grizzly bear
Starting point is 00:49:25 than to mess with a child around me. Dude, 100%. My wife's straight and upset if anything happened to our kids and it was anything tied to anything at Amar County Public School. that she would, without question, be going into the school. There would be blood.
Starting point is 00:49:41 And be willing to go to jail. And I'm telling you right now, you don't mess with a purebred Irish woman, like my wife. She does not mess around with our kids. She would have gladly gone to prison. I don't know if you guys ever heard, there was a guy that shot his son's kidnapper and abuser,
Starting point is 00:50:03 pretty famously caught on camera. Aaron Davison's been watching the program lately and she leaves this common absolutely livid. This is why I homeschool my special needs son. I can't even fathom the situation. My heart goes out to these parents. I pray for these children who are abused by this evil. Janice Boyce Trevillian says Noah Kaufan has said that this will be spoken on Sean Hannity today. I hope it does.
Starting point is 00:50:32 Noah Kaufen has been texting me about all this. Don't read the article in the Daily Progress yesterday. and if you do prepare yourself for something that will haunt you. Anything else you want to add to the program, Judah Wickhauer? That's the Thursday edition of the I Love Sebel Show. Tomorrow on Real Talk with Keith Smith at 10.15 a.m., Ned Galloway will be in the house. Among others.
Starting point is 00:51:11 Tomorrow at Real Talk with Keith Smith at 1015 a.m. Three elected officials. Let me go to Keith's page here. Who are the three of officials? Ned Galloway, supervisor from Almar County, Timothy Hodge, supervisor from Flavanna, and Manning Woodward, supervisor from Louisa. They're going to be talking water, data centers, and growth. That's Keith Smith Show.
Starting point is 00:51:34 I won't step out of bounds here and talk with Ned about this ACPS thing unless he wants to speak on it. It would seem to me the Amar County Public, the Amar County School Board, and the Amar County Board of Supervisors, they're linked because of the... the supervisors allocate the money to the school board. And it would seem to me the supervisors should commission a third-party investigation that's not tied to ACPS in any capacity. The third-party investigation should not be commissioned by the school board. Of course not. Because we want all the dirt. We want to know who. We want to know if the school board is culpable here. I have one mom that's been communicating with me off the record, she insists on anonymity, I get information because
Starting point is 00:52:23 I understand how to respect people's privacy when they ask and what's on the record or off the record. And she's indicated to me that she has a paper trail of email communication to the school board highlighting Mike Sweeney as a person of concern and interest with his behavior and his tactics at Halle Meade Elementary. She sent it to the catch can email account. The third-party investigation should be done that's not tied to ACPS in any capacity, and it should go as high as the superintendent's office and as far as the school board and down to the janitorial school cafeteria and bus drivers. Who is a part of this?
Starting point is 00:53:05 Judah Woodcoward, yours truly Jerry Miller, the water cooler content and conversation. The I love Seattle show.
