Welcome to the I Love Sevo Show, guys.
My name is Jerry Miller, and thank you kindly for joining us on a Tuesday afternoon in Charlottesville, Virginia.
We are in the heartbeat of a region we call Central Virginia.
Our show is the water cooler of content and conversation, where we discuss topic matter that appeals to everyone and anyone.
We want to talk Charlottesville, Almore, and Central Virginia first, but we're eager and willing to take macro-secure.
storylines, global storylines, and weave them into what's happening here in our home and our
community. And I think today's show embodies that. There's a president, Donald Trump, that
the rhetoric is always been hyperbolic and exaggerated and verbose and larger than life. However,
the rhetoric of late is coming across as, as, as, as, is, as, is, and verbose. And, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and,
unhinged.
I want to talk about his latest post where Donald Trump warns the world that,
and I quote,
a whole civilization will die tonight.
A whole civilization will die tonight,
never to be brought back again.
I don't want that to happen,
but it probably will.
End quote.
There's an 8 p.m.
deadline, which is now seven hours and 22 minutes away.
If Iran does not acquiesce or capitulate, Donald Trump says he's going to reign Armagedon
on the country.
I want to talk about that on today's show.
I woke up this morning, read that, and I was terrified for my family and for my community
and for our country and a fear that.
that were on the cusp of a world war and far less encouraged that we're on the cusp of ending a war all the way on the side, other side of the world, with a threat Iran that's been a threat for 50 years.
I'm sitting in this chair today, being straightforward with you concerned.
Maybe that's a feeling you know you don't identify with. I don't see how.
pushing radicals and terrorists who have a history of essentially being, you know, our three-year-old son.
I try to reason with our three-year-old son, and there's no reasoning with the toddler.
You can, you can, this happened the other day.
Zachary, I'll let you stay up for 15 more minutes, son.
if you promise when the oven timer, when the oven timer beeps,
because it's 15 minutes, and I gave you an extra 15 minutes after bedtime,
when that oven timer beeps, you need to go to bed,
I'm going to tuck you in, I'm going to read you a Curious George book,
your favorite one where Curious George goes to the chocolate factory,
and Curious George interrupts the chocolate production at the factory.
He makes the condoes.
conveyor belt goes super fast and all the chocolatiers are unable to keep up with packaging the chocolates.
So Curious George goes to the end of the conveyor belt and uses his arms and his hands to put the
chocolates into the chocolate box as if he was Forced Gump trying to give Jenny a box of chocolates.
He loves that one.
Zachary loves that Curious George book.
And he said, okay, Daddy, 15 more minutes.
And the timer went off and it beeped and it beeped and it beeped and it beeped.
and I said, son, it's now 8.15. Your bedtime's 8 o'clock. It's time to go to bed. He had a meltdown
akin to a stirred hornet's nest on a hot summer day with mommy or daddy pushing the self-propelled
lawnmower in the backyard and clipping the epicenter of hornets, the home of hornets, only to be
attacked by them while pushing the lawnmower. That's what happened to me the other night with
our son.
hornet's nests on a hot summer day,
clipped by a self-propelled lawnmower,
the behavior of our three-year-old.
And in that moment, I'm like,
there's no reasoning with a three-year-old.
There's no reasoning with this toddler.
So you just have to pick him up,
and while you bear hug him and take him to bed,
to burrito baby him in the covers,
wrap the covers around him,
turn his bunny rabbit nightlight on,
and close the door,
only to hear him scream at the top of his lungs for five or ten minutes before he goes to bed.
That's how we finished a couple nights ago.
That's what you had to do.
There was no reasoning in him.
I gave him the extra 15 minutes, which is all he wanted, and he wanted more time and would have kept pushing.
How's Trump going to reason with Iran?
Terrorists.
How's Trump going to reason with Iran?
Radicals, threatening this type of mindset and behavior is not a realistic approach.
It's not negotiation here.
You know, this behavior with Donald Trump, what's happened of late, this unhinged threatening,
reminded me of Nakaya Walker's behavior in her final days in office.
Nakaya Walker, for her final stretch as mayor of Charlottesville and as a city counselor in Charlottesville,
every day we woke up in Charlottesville and was like, what is this woman going to get into today?
one day it was the rape allegory her poetry that was picked up by the new york times where she compared the city she represented to to rape and and male ejaculate remember that viewers and listeners remember when she was using city funds city money taxpayer dollars to give gift cards to speakers that spoke during the public portion comment uh people
period of city council meetings? Why are you giving, use a taxpayer money to give, to reward people
during council meetings to speak about something you want them to speak about? Remember that?
Remember when she imploded Keith Woodard's plan of bringing the farmer's market to Water
Street? Woodard's like, to hell with this, I'm leaving millions of dollars of underground
infrastructure. I want nothing to do with this absurd council and how they go about negotiation.
Remember when the word racist was being hurled left and right as if it was like passing the sweet potatoes at Miller family dinner?
Honey, can you pass me the sweet potatoes?
Your sweet potatoes are fantastic.
Absolutely.
That racist.
Same one.
It's unchecked, unhinged.
The concern is someone's doing it at a global scale.
A lot I want to talk about on the program today.
I want to talk about use car prices.
at the highest point they've been since 2023.
I want to talk about mortgage rates
at one of the highest levels they've been in a really, really long time.
Housing and labor, rents, floating debt.
We talked about that yesterday.
You know, you have this, you have two elected officials
that very much impact us in Charlottesville
in Almar County and across Central Virginia.
You've got a governor and Abigail Spanberger
whose approval ratings are tanking.
Abigail Spanberger's approval ratings
are about as bad as you get.
And I'm going to explain to you
where her approval ratings stand here on the show today.
I mean, they are piss poor.
And this is by a poll done by...
Who did the poll, June?
Was it the Washington Post?
Yeah, Washington Post.
The Washington Post.
supported Monday, a poll conducted by the Post and the George Mason University School of Policy and Government.
The poll was done from March 26 to March 31, a random sampling of voters.
Spamberger's support is, I'm reading verbatim, has dropped by double digits.
Larry Sabado, who's very left-leaning here at the University of Virginia, one of UVA's star professors, a drop of that margin, he says,
is stunning and it should be greatly disturbing to the governor
and the governor's staff if it's repeated in other surveys.
The approval mark for Spamberger's 13 percentage points lower than the average for
Virginia governors and post-polling since the 1990s.
You got a governor and Spamberger who ran on a platform,
who campaign on a platform of bringing affordability back to Virginians.
strengthening the economy and bringing affordability back to Virginians.
That was her campaign.
You got a president who ran on a campaign,
who campaign on a platform of bringing affordability back to Americans.
Geez, Louise, just a handful of weeks ago,
Donald Trump, in his state of the union,
was championing, his words, cheap gas.
and how we took gas into the mid-2 dollars when Joe Biden in 2022 had gas in the mid-4.
That was just what?
A handful of weeks ago, Trump was talking about that?
How this is the best and brightest America's ever been.
We're red, hot as a country.
Hot, I tell you.
His words.
That was a month ago.
This is unhinged and unchecked.
We saw this with the Caya Walker.
One day this, one day that.
Use cars at the highest level they've been since 2023.
Labor at the highest level they've been since 2020.
Floating.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Use cars at the highest level they've been since 2020.
Gasoline at the highest levels they've been since 2022.
30-year fixed mortgage rates at the highest levels they've been in a generation.
Housing at an all-time high.
Buy or rent.
Floating debt at an all-time high.
Groceries at an all-time high.
Labor for the small business owner at an all-time high.
if you can find people to work, fragility across the board.
Here you've got the city of Charlottesville that's having a meeting this coming week
where they're going to green light and rubber stamp a real estate tax rate increase.
You got Almaro County about to green light a personal property tax rate increase.
All while assessments have gone up.
You got small businesses left and right.
We told you in January 12 restaurants of notoriety.
We're going to close in the city, 12 of them.
We told you before the Stefan Freeman collapsed because we do this for a living, we negotiate leases, we do deal structure, and we were told by the landlords that these businesses were failing.
They were behind on their rents.
They were getting evicted.
We told you in January 12 restaurants we're going to close.
Guess what?
Stefan Freeman, eight businesses closed.
We told you there were going to be 12.
Guess what?
South Street Brewery last night in operation.
the longest running brewery in Charlottesville, 28 years.
Last night, doors closed.
We told you that.
Milkman's bar.
We knew.
We told you that.
There's 10.
That number in January was 12.
Guess what?
It's up to 14 now.
We know four more in the city alone,
noteworthy restaurants that are on the cusp of closing.
Why?
Because their landlords are telling us,
keep your ears peeled for a tenant for the,
this location. We know you fill these spots, Jerry.
Last night, an armed
gunman evacuates
Regal movie theater in Stonefield.
Imagine watching a movie,
maybe it's a shoot-em-up, maybe it's an action. Mary, it's like a Jerry.
Is it Jerry Brockheimer? Is that the guy?
Brockheimer?
Imagine watching a Jerry Brockheimer
thriller, like an action. Shoot him up.
car chases and bazookas and gunfire and people getting whacked and mowed down and you're
throwing your popcorn in your mouth and eating judah's favorite candy the the juju beans
what juda loves the juju beans and the twizzlers or you're pounding a root beer while you're
engaged to the silver screen transfixed and then all of a sudden the lights come on armed
policemen enter the movie theater
machine guns
in a hand and scream to
everyone in the theater, get out right now
there's an armed gunman
on the loose at Regal in
Stonefield. Your life is at
risk. That happened yesterday
in Almarl County
at the shops of Stonefield.
So much to talk about on
today's program. Sixty two years in business
Charlesville Sanitary Supply.
Sixty two years in business
Charlottesville Sanitary Supply and Charlottesville Swimming Pool Company online at
CharlottesnitorySupply.com where you can buy anything and everything cleaning related
at Charlottesville Sanitary Supply.com and have it delivered to your doorstep the same day.
They're a swimming pool company. If you have a swimming pool like our family does,
water testing, pool covers, pool robots, in ground pool construction, above ground pool construction,
Charlottesville swimming pool companies, you're consulted of anything swimming pool related,
and your first contact.
Studio camera, judo wickhauer.
Studio camera, metronome of consistency.
Studio camera.
Sounded like, who do you want to send you some fan mail today?
Send Judah Wickhauer some fan mail.
He loves receiving the fan mail.
He'll respond with an autograph photo that you can hang on your wall.
Where do you want to begin?
Do you want to begin on Armageddon?
And Iran?
I mean, Judah, can I read this to you and then I'll stop talking?
Yeah, it's not.
Trump's words, a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.
I don't want that to happen, but it probably will happen.
I mean, I hope it's just rhetoric.
But at this point, I don't think, I'm not sure anyone knows what Trump's going to do.
and frankly that's pretty frightening
especially when he's talking about ending a civilization of people
especially when a lot of those people in Iran
are just normal people stuck in a bad situation
especially if you've seen pictures of what Iran was like
before the current regime took over
Spamberger and Donald Trump
had some similarities
if Spamberger and Donald Trump
and Donald Trump, who campaigned on affordability first.
If they came out of the gates on day one, Spamberger and Donald Trump,
I'll start with Trump, and remained razor focused on domestic issues,
affordability for Americans, tax cuts for Americans,
affordable health care for Americans,
strengthening the economy and budget trimming with the government.
Those six points.
If Trump in his second term has said,
I'm going to be razor focus on domestic issues,
you can even throw the border in there if you want.
Affordability for all,
health care affordability for all, tax cuts for all,
a stronger economy than ever,
and budget trimming of our government,
if he had done that for four years,
he may have been minted or trophied as a political grate by some.
Trump today has instead focused on a war on the other side of the world
with an enemy that's been an enemy of America for 50 years,
and that's yielded, escalating inflation.
That's led to a mortgage rate that's now 7%.
don't forget part of that belongs to the tariffs I think that's yielded an economy incredibly fragile
used car prices at a three-year high gasoline at a four-year high the most expensive labor the most
expensive housing the most expensive rents the most expensive homeownership ever in american history
and grocery still flirting with all-time highs spamberger she campaigned on afforded
ability. You come out of the gates in Virginia from day one. You promise this. It's what led to your
double-digit victory against Winsome Earl Sears. I mean, think about how much of a putts
Winsome Earl Sears and the top of the GOP ticket was. You had a black woman, an incumbent
at Attorney General, a black woman running for governor as a Republican, an incumbent and Attorney
General and Jason Miari's, and a gay man at Lieutenant General. Yeah. And the top of
the GOP got the brakes beat off of them.
Like little Jerry when he was nine years old and he stepped out of line with his Cuban
grandfather in the backyard who whipped his belt off his torso and slashed him across the
ass a couple of times. Spamberger demolishes, crushes, annihilates, hammers,
winsome Earl Sears, and does the complete opposite of which you campaign for.
starts with a war chest of money thanks to Glenn Yonkin,
then immediately jumps into the cesspool of overreach,
of taxation without representation,
of stripping liberties from Virginians,
still a huge pocket of the Commonwealth is very OG in its mindset,
especially as it applies to guns.
Yeah.
And there's also the question of her deciding
that she's not going to assist.
in ice arrests.
And a lot of people are questioning that,
especially after the woman was killed at the bus stop
by an illegal immigrant.
Places in the first month,
first few weeks she's on the job,
completely revamps the UVA Board of Visitors,
forces the quitting, the resignation of three of,
them before her inauguration day, before she's even sworn as the governor, she gets the rector,
the vice rector, and the second largest donor in UVA history, Paul Manning, to resign out of
pressure, remakes the entire Board of Visitors, leads the charge Abigail Spamberger to get the head
honcho at Dominion Energy, the biggest monopoly in the Commonwealth of Virginia. He's now the head
Honcho of the UVA Board of Visitors takes a hundred grand donation from Dominion Energy
immediately after the Dominion Energy Head Honcho has made the leader of the UVA Board of Visitors.
I mean, you can't make this crazy shit up, guys.
Okay, I'm going to repeat this for you.
Are you ready for this, Judah?
The day before she's inaugurated, she forces the resignation of the rector Rachel Sheridan,
and the vice-rector Porter Wilkinson and the multi-billionaire Paul Manning, who's given
$100 plus million and is the namesake of the Paul Manning, Paul and Diane Manning, Biotech Institute.
This is the day before she's sworn in.
A couple of weeks later, she completely remakes the UVA Board of Visitors, including forcing
the resignation of two other board members.
Now she has total control.
Then she appoints the head of Dominion Energy, the largest monopoly in the Commonwealth,
who is currently extorting money out of its customers.
because they know they're the only energy provider of merit in Virginia,
so they can basically create all these crazy line items on your invoice.
What is this super deluxe utility fee here?
What is this?
We want to line our pockets more fee here.
That's $5.95 a month.
What is this, I need a $50 bottle of scotch this month fee.
I'm going to charge the customers a couple of bucks a month here
so all the people of Dominion can.
get a $100 bottle of scotch fee here.
Puts the Dominion guy on the board, a UVA,
one of the most prestigious and prominent boards in the entire Commonwealth,
then a few weeks later accepts $100,000 donation from Dominion Energy.
Campaigns on affordability for Commonwealth voters
and doesn't do anything but
jump into a cesspool of Virginia Democrats who are eager to tax, tax, tax.
No surprise that Abigail Spaner,
Spamberger's approval rating.
What is she, a couple of months on the job, Judah?
Yeah.
Her approval rating and a poll conducted by the Washington Post has dropped by double digits in just a few months on the job.
The approval mark for Spamberger is 13 percentage points lower than the average for Virginia governors in the Washington Post polls history since the 1990s.
the new poll shows more voters think Spamberger's policies will make Virginia less affordable than more affordable,
while a large chunk of pollsters don't think her policies will do any kind of positive things at all.
Someone in the comment section of the I Love Seville Network earlier today had this comment.
I feel politically homeless.
Sounds about right.
That resonated with me.
Raise your hand in the air and wave it around if you just don't care.
That you're politically homeless.
Who feels that way?
Comments in the feed, I will relay them live on air.
We'll give attention to part of the program, Stanley Martin Holmes.

I mean I
It's tough to get past the Trump rhetoric.
I think a lot of people have been worried about him for a while,
and I'm sure that a lot more people are worried after reading his statement.
If Iran does not capitulate at 8 p.m. tonight,
does the man Armageddon Iran, or does the man basically say,
I'll give you an extension on my Armageddon threats for another two to three weeks.
Well, we don't know.
A lot of people have been calling him,
have been using the acronym Taco.
And calling today, I've heard today called Taco Tuesday in terms of Trump and his promises.
Taco, T-A-C-O, is short for Trump always chickens out.
in this case, I certainly hope it's true because I don't think anybody, I don't think any sane person wants Iran completely destroyed.
Logan Wells Claylow, welcome to the broadcast, print radio and television, welcome to the broadcast.
And one of the TV stations finally covered the Monticello High School student teacher fight.
Thank you for covering that.
If you're in legacy media and you're not covering that fight, what are you?
you doing? Deep throat, number one in the family. His photo on screen. Deep throat, who is
geopolitically nuanced as anyone I know, his exact words, I don't understand the strategy of
boombastic threats in this case. You might actually be able to scare rational actors like Europeans
with crazy man theory, but Iran? They are okay with letting their country.
burned to the ground.
In this situation, the United States of America should just do, not threaten, no hard
deadlines, no hard deadlines, just do.
Vanessa Parkhill, Trump's actions have not led to the 7% mortgage rate.
I gave the historical info regarding that on yesterday's show.
We can hold him accountable for some things like what's going on with oil and gas prices,
but it diminishes credibility when the finger gets pointed at him for all of the
things that he did not have a hand on. I'll push back respectfully on that, Vanessa Parkhill.
Prior to the war in Iran, the mortgage rate was in the fives. Prior to the war in Iran, you could get a
30-year fixed mortgage for well-qualified applicants in the fives, and the trend line on the mortgage
rate was going into the mid-to-lower fives, and that's without buying points. A qualified
applicant with a good credit score and a nice little financial footprint could secure
a 30-year loan on a home in the five-handle range. And the trend line showed a downward push
to mid-to-low-fives prior to the war I ran. That trend line is now at 7% or a point and nearly
one half point higher.
The
discussion about the Fed
pursuing rate cuts is no longer
in the new cycle for 2026,
and now the discussion is a
rate increase
in 2026
due to inflationary pressures
associated with a
lengthy stay, a lengthy
war in Iran.
And the inflation associated
with escalated oil that is now, depending on where you shop in Almarl, Central Virginia,
in Charlottesville in the $4 range.
I saw it at $4.20, and it's not of the puff-puff-pass variety.
It's of take the money out of your wallet and give it to somebody else variety.
She does say, which I agree with, that the electric bills increasing in Virginia with Dominion
is because the Commonwealth is back in the regional greenhouse gas.
initiative, which Glenn Yonkin had backed out of that agreement.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
I think that's fueling a lot of the negativity in the polls towards her.
Because a lot of people think that's going to take us back to back into unaffordable
territory.
100%.
100%.
No question about it.
I have a curious, this is a question that I have for historically minded or politically
astute viewers and listeners.
When have you
seen a combined
governor
of Virginia and President of America
approval ratings
at this point, of this
low point, at the same
time?
Like, I don't have that answer.
Well, I mean,
the article says it's been
since the 90s, since
who were the presidents of the 90s?
That was that, that was
H. USA presidents. The 90s was
Bill Clinton and H. Bush.
Who was Clinton and H. W. Bush's.
Approval ratings, this is me out kicking my coverage right here.
We know the Washington Post poll said we have not seen approval ratings this poor
for the governor of Virginia since the 1990.
In the 1990s, the president of the United States of America was either Bill Clinton or H.W. Bush, the dad.
When Larry Sabato, you watched the program from tie to time, have we seen, and how long has it been where we've seen the approval ratings for the president and the approval ratings for the governor of Virginia in the toilet in this piss poor condition?
That's out of my purview.
George W. Bush was down to 25.
No.
What?
H. Bush.
George W.'s the son.
Yeah.
This is George Bush.
George, the son was at 25% in 2008.
We're talking about the 1990s.
The poll said it wasn't until the 1990s.
Since the 1990s that they seen the governor of Virginia have an approval rating of this poor.
So you would have to go to the 1990s for the president to see an approval rating and see if it's as poor as Trump's.
That's what we're trying to figure out.
Why does it have to be 90s?
I want to know at a time when the governor's approval rating in Virginia and the president of the United States approval ratings were in as bad a shape as they are right now.
Because Virginians right now are getting it at macro level, at mid-macro level, and at local level.
Charlottesville one set real estate tax rate increase.
Almore County, personal property tax rate increase,
all at the same time that assessments are going up on housing.
Virginians in Central Virginia,
this is a show called The I Love Seville Show,
which focuses on Charlottesville,
Almore, and Central Virginia.
You are dying the death of a thousand financial cuts,
left out to dry on Garth Road, on Ivy Road,
on Locust Avenue, in the Greenbrier neighborhood,
on Pantops in Barbersville on Route 29 in Crozet, Route 240,
to bleed on the side of the road as if you were a carcass struck by Judas Ford sedan.
There you go.
Has me asking the question, if you were to open a business locally, would you do it?
Has me asking this question.
If you were to open a business or wanted to open a business and you wanted to pursue,
the dairy market milkman spot or the South Street brewery location, which has the most upside.
It's a tough one.
Rent's cheaper at dairy market.
You got to believe that.
Cheaper by the square foot or just cheaper because it's a smaller space?
Smaller space.
Ginny Who comes to the rescue.
George H.W's lowest approval rating was 22% in 1992.
Bill Clinton's lowest approval rating 36% in 1993.
So there's the answer.
Ginny Who salute to you.
Ginny Who salute to you.
And you've led the charge, Ginny Hu, a fan mail to Judah.
Judah has an autographed shirtless photo in the mail coming to you.
Tank top over his shoulder, hand on his hip, wearing Wrangler jeans.
Budweiser in his hand.
And a fireman's hat.
That's all. That took it too far at the fireman's on.
That took it too far?
That took it too far. Okay.
1990s, HW, 22%, Clinton 36%.
I won't mention the red suspenders then.
Well played, well played.
So it's been a generation, a generation and a half.
It's been a generation and a half since we've seen
the governor's approval ratings and the president's
approval ratings at this low point.
Together.
For Virginians at the same time.
Generation and a half.
We're talking 30 plus years.
I want you to think about that, viewers and listeners.
John Blair, George H.W. got 37% of the popular vote in 1992.
Doug Wilder's approval rating in 1992 was 22%.
Here's a link to the Wilder.
You guys are so effing smart.
George H. Bush's got to 37% of the popular vote in 92.
Wilder's approval rating in 92 was 22%.
Wilder was Governor Virginia in 92.
That's about the time or around about the time that he was taking a helicopter
to visit under the cloak of darkness a certain winery and vineyard barren that shall remain nameless.
That's a story that will forever live in infamy and in lure in Virginia history.
Doug Wilder's escapades on helicopters,
visiting local luminaries and lusty and busty donors.
I'll leave that up for your research viewers and listeners.
I don't want to go into the road of poor taste,
although we did highlight shirtless autograph photos of,
Duda wearing red suspenders, fireman hats, and Wrangler jeans while drinking Budweiser's.
Would you take South Street Brewery or the Milkman's Bar?
You're a businessman.
You certainly counsel a lot of them.
You can't say neither.
I would probably, of the two, I would probably take South Street.
And what's your argument for that?
I don't think the...
I really don't think the...
the parking situation is all that bad,
especially for things like dinner
when the parking lot behind it
is, I would imagine,
much easier to find a spot in.
And it's been well known for like,
what do you say, 28 years?
I mean, that's the best argument
you could possibly make a business
had 28 years of run there.
That's a convincing
argument that would have a hard time arguing against. Why milkman's bar over South Street,
you make the argument affordability. But I learned this from Monique Moshear, the owner of the
Happy Cook. She's one of the most successful local retail owners in the region. She's the epitome of
omnipus experiential retail. What makes the Happy Cook so great in Barracks Road Shopping Center?
They host cooking classes where you can learn the best
cooking techniques and the best recipe execution techniques by celebrity chefs locally.
And the best utensils to use.
You literally use in these cooking classes the cooking equipment, the cooking tools, the cooking utensils
that they sell right next to the cooking class. It's genius. I had a conversation one time
with her in the back of her store about Barracks Road versus the downtown mall. She said,
yeah, the rents are more expensive in Barracks. Yeah, the rents are the
most expensive in the city of Charlottesville. But you know why they're the most expensive?
