The Stupidest City in North Texas | Thursday 8-29-24 · The Treehouse Show Podcast

• 0:18
  Speaker 1: It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley, along with
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharman, winding down on week two
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: of our shift to five days a week inside the Treehouse.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: I don't love by you, but I sure him enjoying it.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and thanks.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: For the enthusiasm of tray And I'm especially excited anytime
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: we get to start a show with something so abjectly stupid,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: it actually makes me wait to present you guys with
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: something else stupid. So it's like a heavyweight fight of stupid,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: kind of like Jake Paul just shadow boxing, and that
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: is this. So I don't know if it's going to
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: happen today or if it's going to happen tomorrow. Today
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: being Thursday, August twenty ninth, twenty twenty four. So I
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: don't know if the big stupid thing I had planned
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: for today is going to happen today or if it's
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: going to happen tomorrow. The reason why we have to
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: push it just a bit is because something so stupid
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: is because something stupid or pushed it down the list,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: and that is the city of Dallas. It's kind of
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: like how the bat like signals batman if there's a
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: stupid light. The City of Dallas comes a running. I
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: say that because a city of Dallas is paying an
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: agency to help them find a new city manager, and
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: one of the ways in which they decided to advertise
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: the position is through a handy dandy brochure. And on
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: this eight page brochure for the city manager position, they
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: made sure to include not a photo of the skyline
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: of Dallas, No, they used Houston's. So the City of
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Dallas and its infinite stupidity, has paid an agency one
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: hundred and thirty four thousand dollars to find a new
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: city manager. And one of the tools they were us
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: using to find this new city manager is a brochure.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: And on the cover of this brochure is a photo
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: of the skyline of Houston, not Dallas.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Maybe that was just they were just appealing to the
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: first forty eight people that watch that show. Because when
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: when you sometimes you get lucky and you get that
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: back to back, like the same episode, it'd be like Dallas, Texas,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: and then right after that it's like Harris County. So
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: sometimes it's just a I hate to say it bleed through.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Maybe that's what it was.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Well, I look at it as the possibility that this
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: is just a really good example of how badly Dallas
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: needs a new city manager. They can't even get the
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: skyline on the brochure.
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: Right in twenty twenty four, we're still doing brochures. Yeah,
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: because because seriously, you're talking about a tiny, tiny sliver
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: of of people that are qualified to be city manager
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: and and and where the city manager basically runs the city. Yes,
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: I would venture to say there's probably twenty people that
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: are really qualified to do it.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I could do it, you think so? Yeah?
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: H I could do it. I mean I've I've I've
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: worked in restaurants. How hard could it be? I mean
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: about the right eyeline on the brochure.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: Imagine a city council made up of servers and bartenders.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Oh, I have. It would work so much, It would
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: be so much more efficient.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I for one, would be on board with compensating city
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: and ye hang on, let me think about this. Yeah,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: I think it's fair to pay city council members through
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: tips and the minimum wage.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, two thirteen an hour plus tips.
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: M h.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: I think that's right. You'll see a lot of work
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: get done.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that right there would save a lot of money.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah. See, look what I've started. Look at this as
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: your new city manager. Look what I started. Now we're now,
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: we're we're we're working on tips. Now I like it. Things.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: So, Raj, you think you could do the city manager
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: position for Dallas?
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah? What do you gotta do?
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Lights on, let's find out. Let's scroll down in the
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: brochure below the photo of Houston into the essential functions
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: of the position of city manager for Dallas. Uh, let's
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: see here. Can you yep? Okay? Can you direct and
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: coordinate the administration of city government in accordance with policies
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: and priorities determined by the mayor and City Council?
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Sure?
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Okay. Can you supervise, through deputy and assistant city managers
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: and lower level executives, the activities, operations programs of diverse
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: city departments.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: So basically that said, can you delegate authority? Yes, that's
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: also another way of going. Can you be lazy and
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: still keep your job?
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, it's government work.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: I can do that.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Can you supervise, through the Chief Financial Officer the preparation
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: and presentation of the city's annual billion dollar budget.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that means. What that's saying is I literally have
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: no control over what happens with the money at all.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: And since you're supervising through the CFO the preparation and
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: presentation of the city's budget, you're just taking credit for
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: someone else's work.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, definitely, Okay, you can do that.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Can you coordinate activities with the mayor and City Council
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: to provide systemic efforts in serving the residents so.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Like a bake sale?
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Yes, okay. Can you implement mayor and city count to
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: policies and long and short range plans for city government
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: to improve efficiency of operations and number and kind of
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: services provided to citizens?
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: Can I put the right skyline on the right brochure? Yes?
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Can you represent the City of Dallas at conferences at
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: the local, state, and national.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Level, Oh, you bet your ass.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: And finally, can you cultivate cooperative partnerships with other public
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: and private organizations to access resources and improve the efficiency
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: of service delivery?
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: That means, uh, can I take bribes and give them
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: a lug up? Yep, couldn't do that.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Gotta be careful though, because Dallas County commissioner's courts got
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: their hands pretty deep in that pocket. So you got
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: to make sure, you know, I.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: Got grease a lot of wheels.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to make sure you increase the right
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: poems there.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I can, I can. This sounds this sounds like
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: this job was made for me.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: It's kind of a dream job, right, Yeah.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: What does it pay.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: A lot?
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, I forget how much TC Broadnax was making before
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: he left. That was the city manager before that left
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: to go to Austin.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: I always wonder what he did after magnum p I.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Uh, he did Magnum p I, then ran the city
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: of Dallas, and now he's running the city of Austin.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh that's that's that's turning out really well. I hear.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Well. I mean it beats the hell out of the
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: you know, the autograph circuit. And at least as a
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: city manager he can still fly around in a helicopter.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: He flies himself, so he can pay himself twice there
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: you go. Okay, And what's his last name, TC.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: What broad Knacks?
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh what they said brought Snacks. I was like,
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: that's a great name.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Well, that's another aspect of the position. That they would
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: expect you to do, because when you go to city
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: council meetings, you're expected to bring snacks.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: What is the pay? How much does the city manager make?
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: Do we have a ballpark? Like half a mill?
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: It's it's six figures, I know that. I'm not sure
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: if it's quite half a mill. It's going to be in.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: That around three I'm I'm out.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Oh is that is that not enough for you?
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: I mean three twenty five before bribes. I think I
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: can make it to half a mil. I think I
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: can do that.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: I think you can squeak by.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: I'm looking out for the three of us. Dan, It's
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: not just I'm not. It's okay. Now, I'll be the face,
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: but like you will be the decision makers. Like when hey,
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: so and so wants to pay us X amount of money,
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: should we take it? And they will be like, no,
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: ask so and so if they want to give us
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: a little bit more over here, and we'll do that.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: I'll see. And then and then Tray slides in and
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: gives them drinks and we get them all little loosey goosey,
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: and then we get a little more money. You gotta
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: think long term.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this actually does sound exactly like government.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: Work and only one of us will go to prison.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Well, now it sounds like radio lucky. If you're you,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: we have experience in both.
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: You're listening to the Treehouse. Visit us online at Treehouse
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: on Air dot com.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Let's get Daniel Cook into the Treehouse now. His number
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: to call is A three three COOKDFW the website cookdfw
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: dot com. It's kind of a combination of things in
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: your business, Daniel, because it's COOKDFW, roofing and restoration, and
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: included in that is remodeling. So you get some people
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: calling you saying, hey, man, I would really love to
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: do a new bathroom or redo my kitchen. What's what's
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: the remodeling project that you're working on right now that
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: you're into.
• 10:54
  Speaker 7: Dan, I actually got one better in that, man. We're
• 10:56
  Speaker 7: going to hit the trifecta. Are you ready?
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Yep?
• 10:59
  Speaker 7: High winds may came through eighty miles an hour, knocked
• 11:02
  Speaker 7: the guy's chimney off of his house from the wind
• 11:07
  Speaker 7: being so piercing with the patio cover allowed rain for
• 11:11
  Speaker 7: four hours to rain inside the huge gaping hole inside
• 11:14
  Speaker 7: of his attic, which then, of course caused his sheet
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: rock on the ceiling to fall in, which then caused
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: his wooden floors to swell, which then caused all the
• 11:23
  Speaker 7: sheet rock obviously to have problems. So now it's taken
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: us a while. It's August. We had to get State
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: Farm out there. They weren't able to get out there
• 11:32
  Speaker 7: right away, so we tarped, prevented more moisture from building inside,
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: the house cleaned up, got the water dried out, got
• 11:37
  Speaker 7: to preventive measures to try to stop any more, you know,
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: problems from this home. But then we have been discussing
• 11:43
  Speaker 7: what the home actually needs with insurance now for almost
• 11:46
  Speaker 7: three months. We just now got it cleared up that
• 11:49
  Speaker 7: they agreed with us. Finally, after three visits with different adjusters,
• 11:53
  Speaker 7: different desk people, we actually got the whole roof approved
• 11:57
  Speaker 7: for replacement. His car part, his garage door that got
• 12:01
  Speaker 7: ruined with some debris, his whole interior, his insulation in
• 12:05
  Speaker 7: his attic needs to be replaced because it had a
• 12:07
  Speaker 7: whole bunch of moisture and mildew on it probably is
• 12:10
  Speaker 7: sheet rock. His wood were four repairs, all of his stuff,
• 12:14
  Speaker 7: and then that in turn his wife, we're sitting at
• 12:16
  Speaker 7: the dining room table, she goes you know what, this
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: happens all the time. I haven't liked that tile in
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: that thing. If we're already going over here to do
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: this for how much more were to come over here?
• 12:24

• 12:28
  Speaker 7: getting a they're getting a house remodel and he's not
• 12:31
  Speaker 7: ready for but he's getting one. And you know, the
• 12:33
  Speaker 7: good news is, and there is a silver lining here,
• 12:36
  Speaker 7: even though it's a traumatic event, they're getting a house
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: remodel for pennies.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: On the dollar.

  Speaker 2: No, okay.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I've also learned over the years, raj that when Trey
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: responds by saying nothing that's gospel, you just take it
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: as nothing and you move the f on going back
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: to the City of Dallas trying to find a new
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: city manager by posting by putting together a brochure from
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: an agency and them using the city of Houston skyline
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: instead of Dallas. The sad thing about this is how
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: long it actually took for city count members to realize
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: in a public meeting that this was, in fact not
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the city of Dallas that they were looking at in
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: the brochure. NBC News coverage of the meeting showed the
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: committee's less than enthusiastic reactions to the brochure. Unsurprisingly, their
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: first concern regarded the cover photo because it was Houston,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: not Dallas, but it took a few minutes of discussion
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: to identify what exactly was wrong with it. They didn't
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: know immediately. District twelve council member Karen Mendelssohn said, I'm
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: just gonna say, first off, I hate this photo. I
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: don't think it's representative of Dallas. It's not because it's
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: not Dallas, And she said, and I had to look
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: at it for quite a few minutes before I realized
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: it was actually the city. She would soon learn her
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: instincts were correct. The featured skyline was in fact not Dallas,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: it was Houston. Jesse Marino from District Too said to
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: this looks old and dated. Wow, we have one of
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: the best skylines in the country, and I think we
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: need to be able to highlight that.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: Dallas actually has an incredibly distinctive skyline.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: And yeah, they didn't notice that right off the bat.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: It's just man, you would think they would. It seems
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: pretty easy.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: But look for the just look for the green building
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: though with the green k neeon. If you don't see
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: that one, it's not it's not.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Dallas or Reunion Tower, yeah, or the Pegasus, I mean,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: any of the things. But they actually So this all
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: happened on an on the ad hoc Committee on Administrative Affairs,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: So it was five Dallas City Council members. They met
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: with representatives of Baker Tilley, the agency putting together the
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: package to lure a new city manager, which basically, maybe
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: this is just a really creative campaign on the part
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: of this agency to show how how badly Dallas needs
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: a new city manager. So maybe they planned it this way.
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: Okay, I like it, yeah, kind of pushing through, like hey,
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: if you didn't notice that, the city manager would have
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: I like it. I like a little passive aggressive. Oh yeah,
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: I like this agency. As city manager, I will use them.
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: Why didn't they just most you know, Fortune five hundred companies,
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: Most cities would use a head hunting service.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, not the city of Dallas. They're gonna spend
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty four thousand dollars on this agency
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: to put together a brochure with the wrong city.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: You never underestimate the power of a brochure.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: Never underestimate the power of the City of Dallas to
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: waste money. I present to you Exhibit B into evidence
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: on wasting money in the City of Dallas. And that
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: is the story of Jabbari the Gorilla, all the way
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: back in March of two two thousand and four. This
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: was a story of rage and bullets and mystery at
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: the Dallas Zoo because in March of two thousand and four,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Jabari the Gorilla somehow got out of his enclosure and
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: for forty minutes terrorized zoo goers until he was taken
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: down by a swat officer's bullet. Over the next three months,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: the city of Dallas spent hundreds of thousands of dollars
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: on an investigation to find out how did Jabbari get out?
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: And at the end of three months and hundreds of
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: thousands of dollars in taxpayer money, you know what they
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: found He took a running jump.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: I was going to say he had a key.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: I wasn't at the recommendation though, the higher fence and
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: the recommendation.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: So that was a two It was a two pronged report.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: How did it happen, how to prevent it, how to
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: have it?
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the first prong got to find out how did
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Jabari get out? Well, they found out. They found out
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: that he just took a running He got a running
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: start is what they found out. And he jumped over
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: his fence. That's okay, the how they got that part
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: figured out. Then then the second part, as Trey mentioned,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: was okay, how do we prevent it? What make the
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: make the make the fence higher, and give us our
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: six hundred thousand dollars. It really was one of the
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: great all time UH takes. And they did it, and
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: it's like this is like a heist, but The beauty
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: of stealing stuff from the city of Dallas is you
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: don't have to do it under the cover of darkness.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: You don't have to do it with some sort of
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: seed underbelly happenings and goings on. Now you can just do
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: it the middle of the day and tell him I'll
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: write your report, give me half a million dollars, and
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: I'll all this stuff out for you, and then they
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: pay you.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: It's also this was the Dallas Zoo, correct, that's Do
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: you expect more in depth report from the Dallas Zoo.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: No, you're right, it actually it does track. I mean
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: we're talking about a zoo that has a prominent statue
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: out on you know, outside on I thirty five at
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: the entrance of a giraffe. I don't know what it's doing.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: It looks like it's trying to lick the air. I
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: just assume it's screaming for help.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: I have asked what the I have asked what the.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Giraffe is doing, and what did it tell you it's.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: Supposed to be. How they eat leaves off of a
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: tree is they stick their tongue out and they grab
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: the leaf with their tongue and pull the Yeah, but
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: there's no tree, right. See.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: That would make sense if there was a really tall
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: tree next to that statue of the giraffe, or.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: An even taller giraffe or that too.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: But like a lot of things in that area of town,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: it seems to have gone missing mysteriously.
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't expect for anything like I wouldn't expect
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: like a big book, like a one hundred and fifty page,
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: three hundred and fifty page report on what happened that day.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: I just I would expect a brochure, you know what.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: You'd never hear about problems like this coming out of
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: the Fort Worth.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: Zoo, No or San Diego.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Actually they called an expert from the San Diego Zoo
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: into take part in this investigation into Jabbari's escape from
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: the Dallas Zoo.
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: And I see now in my head it's just the
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: guy from San Diego Zoo, just like eating a frozen banana,
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: go and got a running start and then he just
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: walks off.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: That's probably a new a new dramatic series on ABC
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: this fall zero or or they go the opposite direction,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: they go more slapstick, and it's just like a sitcom
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: with Jack Hannah. I would watch this and it's just
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: him just wrestling with gorillas.
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: Uh yeah, so they So the end the result was
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: higher fence. Did they build a higher fence?
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they increased the fence by three feet and added
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: a stronger shocking wire at the top.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't know there was shocking wires at the
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: top to begin with.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Well, there were, but he jumped over him the first time.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: It also said it was a mild shock. I'm not
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: sure what a mild shock to a gorilla is.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: But.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: If memory serves They also they they weren't trimming the
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: like the shrubbery around the electric fence, so it it
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: was kind of grounded.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: That's right, hilarious.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: So that, yeah, keep keep branches away from electric fence.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Was that the third pronc? Yeah, sub section of it's
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: too prong, but subsection A also branches.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, landscaping.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Tell me that's not one of the stupidest things you've
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: heard all week.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I was gone for this, like I think
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: I was. I think I was already.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: What year was this?
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: That was two thousand and four?
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Oh no, then I was here.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you were here for that, you were here for this.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: I don't so the City of Dallas is keeping up
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: with its long held tradition of stupid, and it turns
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: out that when it comes to being shocked by electricity
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: and doing things stupid, the city of Garland does not
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: want to be left out.

  Speaker 1: City of Dallas is running them up with its stupidity,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: and as I mentioned, going into that break, the city
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: of Garland is looking over and going, well, hey, we
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: want some of that. So I don't know if you
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: guys saw this the other day, but copper thieves are
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: now targeting power lines. I don't know if copper thieves
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: targeting power lines. I don't know if I've ever said
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: five words in the same sentence together like that that
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: added up to so much stupid in so few words.
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: M hm.
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: And I yes, Tray, I thought they had been doing
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: that for years. We've read stories over the years of
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: them frying themselves.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: For some reason I didn't remember. Maybe I went on
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: a copper scavenger hunter shooting.
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: Maybe it's you know, what's old is new again and
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: they've forgotten a good ten fifteen years ago that.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, vintage thievery.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, you're right, Just these things are cyclical. I mean, look,
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: we got fashion trends now. Things you know that were
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: hip when we were in school are hip again. So
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe you're right, Ray, Maybe it is it's
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: thievery is also cyclical.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, and you know, stupid and cyclical.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's like mullets both have come back.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Funny you mentioned mullets because I think in this video
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: report that we're about to watch from Channel eight, there
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: might be a couple of mullets in here. So here
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: we have from w FAA copper thieves running amok in Garland.
• 26:49
  Speaker 9: There we begin today with the new warning thieves going
• 26:51
  Speaker 9: to great lens to steal copper wire, not only impacting
• 26:55
  Speaker 9: service to some neighborhoods, but putting their own lives at risk.
• 26:58
  Speaker 10: You believe that tonight WFA.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: Yes, I can nathy.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: Heroin is powerful.
• 27:07
  Speaker 8: Leave that tonight WFAS Teresa Woodard has a new plea
• 27:11
  Speaker 8: from police that if you see something, say something.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna pause that briefly just to say I understand
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: that the police want you to say something if you
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: see something. But if I see a couple of dudes
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: trying to steal a copper out of a power line,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna see it. I'm not gonna say anything. I'm
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: just gonna pull up a lawn chair and watch.
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: If you see something, giggle, pull out.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Your phone and hit recording exactly because it's about to
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: get good.
• 27:39
  Speaker 9: And these criminals, they don't care about anything other than themselves.
• 27:43
  Speaker 10: Bold, brazen, that's one way to describe it, but it
• 27:47
  Speaker 10: is dangerous.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: They're showing this guy, he's just got a long pole
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: that looks to be metal and he's just pulling the
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: power line down off the pole.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: How's the car moving?
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: They don't care about anyone but themselves. Did you think
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: they were robin hood?
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: They're robbin from the hood.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: You don't know their attentions.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: They still copper and give it to the poor.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there could be a sick child benefitting this.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: They may have hearts of gold or teeth, even though
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: gold doesn't doesn't exactly you know, move electricity as good
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: as copper does. But sound sound, sound waves really good
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: with gold.
• 28:38
  Speaker 10: Julie Deadly Garland Police shared these images of a sudden
• 28:42
  Speaker 10: surge in copper thieves, going, that's my favorite.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: I went back this up just a haird So this
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: guy's on in an alleyway on a ladder up against
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: a power pole with a buddy helping him. You notice
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: the tool he has in his hand.
• 28:55
  Speaker 10: Sudden serch.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Is it just me or does that look like a
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: hack saw.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: That is a hacksaw. Wow. That is.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: Because of all the tools you could possibly use to
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: cut down a power line, let's pull out the old
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: trusty metal hacksaw.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: I like how, I like how you think these guys
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: are using their brain.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: I never said that. I never said they were using
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: their brains. I am wondering, though, how did they miss
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: all the Louis the Lightning Bug PSAs as kids.
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: Yes, you're assuming they came from good homes.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: That stuff was on the Louis the Lightning Bug that
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: was every Saturday Sunday morning during kids programming. It would
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: be like the Louis the Lightning Bug public service announcement
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: would come on in between segments of Sesame Street or
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: The Muppet Show.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, or and this may be more to the point.
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: How did they not spend more time watching the bug
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: zapper in the living room?
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: Maybe the that was the problem. That's where they got
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: the idea.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: Hard to watch TV when it's in the pawn shop, Dan.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: You're watching it, you just can't hear all the important information.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: Because I guess you're right. If you're just watching the
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: TV from outside, you don't hear all the important information
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: that Louis the lightning bug is sharing. He just looks
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: like he's at a rave.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: He looks like he's stealing copper.
• 30:31
  Speaker 10: Urge in copper thieves going to great height.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: I think this is my favorite, though. The guy that's
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: actually sitting on power lines trying to get copper out
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: of the power lines.
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: He's just channeling his inner squirrel.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Gonna be a crispy squirrel.
• 30:52
  Speaker 9: These cables at are twenty thirty feet above their head.
• 30:55
  Speaker 9: If they cut the wrong cable, they.
• 30:57
  Speaker 10: Could likely doe to steal utility.
• 31:00
  Speaker 9: And they're doing it in broad daylight in front of
• 31:02
  Speaker 9: the public.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: That's a Garland police officer.
• 31:05
  Speaker 10: That's a new wire up there, because this intersection got
• 31:08
  Speaker 10: hit just a couple of weeks ago. Police say it
• 31:10
  Speaker 10: was six o'clock on a Wednesday night when summer, and
• 31:13
  Speaker 10: it just.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: Sounds weird to say six o'clock on a Wednesday night,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: as if the sun was down. I mean, at six
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: o'clock in summer North Texas, the sun it's still hot
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: as hell, it's super bright. So yeah, they are doing
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: it in the middle of the day.
• 31:27
  Speaker 10: One parked a U haul trailer out here and blocked
• 31:29
  Speaker 10: the lane of traffic. They were loading that U haul
• 31:32
  Speaker 10: with the stolen copper cable from up there.
• 31:34
  Speaker 11: They got caught after a police pursuit. Stop stealing stuff
• 31:39
  Speaker 11: that doesn't belong to you.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, there she is. I was wondering.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Ah, you know, whenever you go into a neighborhood and
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: you see the sign that says neighborhood watch, Yeah, it's
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: this lady's it's this lady's silhouette that you see on
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: that sign.
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: Because stealing things that did belong to you it would
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: be rather fruitless.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: I think that's just called hide and seek.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Maybe that's their logic. Well, you know, like the guys
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: that got arrested by Garland police when they stole that
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: power line cable with the copper in it, and they
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: tried telling those guys you can't do that. You stole that.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: It's like, well, it's mine now, so it's not stealing
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: if it's mine.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: I can't steal what belongs to me.
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: I think this is a new PSA campaign, steal your
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: own stuff.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: I like the idea of stealing from yourself.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: And if we're being honest, if there's any city in
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: North Texas where that PSA would actually get approval and
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: run everywhere. It's from Garland. The city of Garland welcomes
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: you and remind you to you know, only steal your own.
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: That's the Garland motto, stealing your own stuff.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: I like it.
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: You know it's bad when people in Mosquito are like
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: that bitch is dumb.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: Even sunny veils looking down on them.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Don't even get me started on Saxy.
• 33:32
  Speaker 10: Stealing stuff that doesn't belong to you.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: That woman and her infinite wisdom.
• 33:37
  Speaker 11: And must hear it again, stop stealing stuff that doesn't
• 33:42
  Speaker 11: belong to you.
• 33:43
  Speaker 10: This woman lives in northwest Dallas.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: I just realized they actually blurred her face. Do they
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: think they're that they're trying to protect her? Are they
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: trying to keep her anonymous? No?
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: I think the camera was embarrassed. The camera was trying
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: to blur itself, like I don't want to be here.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: The cameras from Garland, I'm sorry. The cameras from Mesquite.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: I love the idea this is. That's such great old
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: white lady logic. Well, stop stealing stuff that doesn't belong
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: to you.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Yes, she expects it to work.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: Oh that's so great.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: All right, let me finish.
• 34:27
  Speaker 10: Those stealing stuff that doesn't belong to you. This woman
• 34:32
  Speaker 10: lives in northwest Dallas. Her neighborhood's been hit. The thieves
• 34:35
  Speaker 10: are back multiple times. It's happened in Fort Worth, Arlington.
• 34:40
  Speaker 10: This video came from a man who lives in southern
• 34:42
  Speaker 10: Dallas's Redbird neighborhood. That's another suspect posing as a worker.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: So I'm starting to think and posing as a worker,
• 34:50

  Speaker 1: of that. I believe it was lieutenant with the Garland
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: Police Department talking about how this is not an organized
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: crime syndicate going after the copper inside the power lines,
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: but works of individuals, Okay, And it's always great to
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: see when a community rallies around its police in the
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: name of public safety. And I cannot think of a
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: better example that I've seen of that recently than this
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: one in which in Oxford, Mississippi, the police were flooded
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: with offers to help after a truck spilled cases of
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: beer in the in the college town.
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: Yep, that sounds about right.
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, police flooded with offers of help after truck spills
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: cases of beer in college town. That college town, of course,
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: being Oxford, Mississippi.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: I ever wonder when you heard a red back go,
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: I went to Oxford, That's where That's where they went.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: In the photos shared by the police department on Facebook,
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: cases of Natural Light bud Light Corona, michelob Alter, and
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Medello are seen covering the street and sidewalk. And the
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: police department knew that this would be an attraction because
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: they even mentioned in the Facebook post, no you cannot
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: help clean it up.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: You know, every fraternity at Ole, miss was running.
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: And they all stopped at Natural Light.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing, when when that truck spilled those cases
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: of beer, you're tray. All the fraternities didn't have to
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: read Facebook to see it. They didn't have to hear
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: about it through word of mouth. They felt it, they
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: felt the disturbance on the campus, and they immediately responded
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: with shovels and funnels.
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, and.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: You know, somewhere in one of those houses and one
• 40:32

• 40:36
  Speaker 1: sitting there on his or her knees, paraying.
