You mean Republicans lie in their political ads in Ohio? I'm shocked. /s If they covered all those ads this year, it would be a five month long video. From Lucas County Votes on TikTok.

Great night in Cincinnati! Seeing so many great people (like @darbylyons.bsky.social) turn out tonight gives me hope for the future. I'm looking forward to reading @andybeshearky.bsky.social's book!

As I'm sitting outside and grilling dinner, I got to thinking... I can't wait until these stupid lying Republican ads go off the air - both radio and TV. I can't wait to vote blue this year. Also, fresh cut grass is a Top Tier smell.

Wonderful time catching "Network" at the Otto Budig Theater! I feel like we could say this more often thought: "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!" Go see it, it's in Cincinnati until Saturday.

In Cincinnati tonight, catching a live performance of "Network" for their Media night. Maybe I'll get to meet some of my colleagues in the city, but I'm excited to catch my first live performance in ...years?

I love this caption on a Husted ad - they know he's useless to average Ohioans.

Felt attractive, might keep this up. For my new followers: I'm Lee. I cover news on 700 WLW in Cincinnati (telling the truth when conservative voices won't.) I love my job and love sharing news in five different states!

How could I forget to share this "achievement?" I actually mentioned Metal Gear Solid in a Saturday Morning broadcast. For those angry: Maybe this Regime shouldn't do things already in video games. Robotic dogs, the hell?

I don't claim to a decent photographer, but I had to snap a few pictures of the Lunar Eclipse outside Cincinnati's iHeartRadio studios. Being a night owl is okay, sometimes.

As @aaronparnas.bsky.social recently stated: "The news has broken me and I'm f**king tired." I know it's my job, but it builds up on you - especially if you don't have a support system. Rest assured, I'm doing my best. Sunset pic tax for the trouble.

🎶One of these things is not like the other🎶 Bad Bunny did an amazing job, it put me in an amazing mood before work! I still laugh that Sinclair stations were trying to push that slop like "ooh, the alternative show got five million!"

I started my third year at iHeartRadio Cincinnati this week. I continue to love my job. This baseball is from my time in Springfield, Ohio - broadcasting for the Champion City Kings. I keep that city in my thoughts - especially with this Administration.
