The Infomaniacs: November 6th 2026 (7:00am) · WTAW - Infomaniacs

• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Good morning and happy Friday. From the WTAW Newsroom, I'm
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Will Welch. The man accused in a deadly shooting in
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Bryan Tuesday evening has turned himself in to Bryan Police.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: 20-year-old Cameron Deshaun Scott allegedly shot 23-year-old Jalen Walter after
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: an argument in the North Point Business Park. Scott surrendered
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: himself to authorities and has been charged with aggravated assault
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: with a deadly weapon. He is being held on $ 300, 000 bond.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: A man is headed to prison for five years for
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: domestic violence and repeatedly violating protective orders. A Brazos County
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: grand jury handed down the sentence against 32-year-old Ronnie Wayne
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Rice Jr. Rice assaulted his ex-girlfriend in 2024, and she
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: was granted a restraining order. He then violated that order
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: twice within a month and was charged with continuous violation
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: of bond conditions. Rice has a lengthy criminal history dating
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: back to 2011 when he was 17 and first arrested
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: for family violence assault. He has been booked into the
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Brazos County Jail 20 times since then. Five of those
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: arrests were for domestic violence. Texas could face changes to
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: its growing data center industry as the state prepares for
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: a new governor and potential regulations. UT Austin energy researcher
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Michael Weber says a short pause could help communities find
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: common ground. But a longer halt may hurt the U.S.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: in its AI competition with China. Uncertainty surrounding a potential
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: construction pause could make developers reconsider building in Texas.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: I think that a moratorium or the threat of a
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: moratorium is enough to get the developers to consider other states.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: They're in a race and they want speed to power.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: And one of the reasons why they like Texas is
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: because they can move quickly here.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: So that's the concern I have.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: And that's why I think it's important not to just
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: have a moratorium, but instead to have a conversation and
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: a negotiation.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Governor-elect Hinojosa has called for a temporary moratorium on data
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: center construction until lawmakers can give local communities more control.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Despite a possible slowdown, many analysts believe Texas could still
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: become the nation's largest data center market. Voters throughout Texas
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: shot down school bond propositions and district tax rate changes
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: on Tuesday night.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: They pretty unanimously said we're tired of higher property.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Taxes because we can barely afford to make ends meet.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Andrew McVeigh with Texans for Fiscal Responsibility says people are
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: being nickel and dimed by school districts and they're getting
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: more informed about what is on the ballot. But he
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: suspects that some of these districts will push bigger bond
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: packages in the future. Here locally, Vader proposals failed in
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Bryan and Navasota ISD. The state's Railroad Commission is no
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: longer solidly conservative.
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: Part of this week's blue tsunami is the first Democrat
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: elected to the three-member commission, which regulates the oil and
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: gas industry. Todd Staples, who heads the Texas Oil and
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: Gas Association, says they can work with people of both parties.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Our industry is on the forefront of delivering cleaner, better,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: stronger energy already. Crude oil prices plunged after Election Day.
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: Some traders are betting that the GOP losses will force
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: President Trump to make a deal to end the war
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: in Iran. In San Antonio, Michael Board, TSN News.

  Speaker 4: 1620-945-WTAW. We're the Infomaniacs. Good morning. Friday's here and it
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: should be a pretty nice one getting up to about
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: 80 degrees down to about 61 tonight, back up to
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: 75 tomorrow. And yeah, Will mentioned it earlier. Our Saturday
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: night rain chance is pretty much just not anymore, but
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: we'll still be Heading down to the 50s by Saturday
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: and Sunday night. So, you know, like low 50s, crispy 50s.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: I read an interesting article about current forecasting.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: And the fact that right now. And it's just come
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: back online. You know, there were, they cut the launches
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: of weather balloons in half. Yeah. But that is now
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: coming back to twice a day as it was.
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: They're figuring out how to restore that after two years
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: of oops. Yeah.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So they've got that figured out. The other thing
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: is that they are phasing out, I believe it was
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: three or four computer models that had been part of
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: the ensemble. And they're replacing them with new ones. Really?
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: But right now there's only one online. What? Yeah.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: So basically, we're just going to guess for a few
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: months while they, hey, you know, that's fine.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: I'm good with that. We'll figure it out.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: And the meteorologist, who's little Travi Herzog out of Houston.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: Travis had a lot to say about it.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he posted on. He said the future looks great.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: These new models are going to be fantastic.
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: I'd love to hear it. Weather brought to you by Malik.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: Be prepared for the next power outage. Malik Service Company
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: and a whole home backup generator for Generac. Call Malik
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: to schedule your appointment today. I want to get to
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: a few different things. Some of these from around the
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: entertainment industry. And one of them has to do with
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: the documentary you've been trying to push on me for
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: a second.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: The SCTV one?
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: Explain the SCTV. If you ever heard of SCTV, many
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: of you have, but many of you have not. What
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: is SCTV?
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: So, essentially... You would compare it to the Canadian Saturday
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Night Live. Yes. They both kind of came together at
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the same moment, and in fact, SNL tried to take
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: some people out of SCTV, SC standing for Second City,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: which was the comedy club kind of that fostered these people.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: But the people who were in and on SCTV, I mean,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Martin Short, right? John Candy.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: Don't forget Catherine O'Hare.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Catherine O'Hare.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: Harold Ramis.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Harold Ramis. What's the guy? Eugene. Eugene Levy.
• 7:54
  Speaker 11: Levy.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: All these guys and more came through that school.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: This is on Netflix.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Rick Moranis.
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: Rick Moranis is a big one.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and Dave.
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: Dave Thomas.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Dave Thomas.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: The show is called SCTV, the greatest show you've never
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: heard of. By the way, all those guys are in it, right?
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: Here's Eugene Levy talking about why the first season looks
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: so cheap.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: We were working with a budget of $ 7, 000 an episode.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: This is not for person. The entire budget of the
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: show was $ 7, 000.
• 8:22
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: Thrown together. Lorne Michaels actually came to Canada to try
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: to poach people off of this show and did. Yeah,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: he did.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: And here's why. They created... They're the ones that created...
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: One of the greatest comedy duos of all time and
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: one of the most iconic Canadian duos of all time.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: I went crazy. I said, everything we're doing is Canadian.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: What do you want us to do? You want us
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: to sit.
• 8:49
  Speaker 12: In front of a map, put on a toque and
• 8:51
  Speaker 12: parka and fried back bacon and drink beer and talk
• 8:55
  Speaker 12: like hosers?
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Good day. This is the Great White North. I'm Bob McKenzie.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: This is my brother Doug.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: How's it going, eh?
• 9:00
  Speaker 12: What we didn't count on, that our stupid in-jokes would
• 9:04
  Speaker 12: actually catch on and that people would find it funny.
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: Everybody's here to find out about Bob and Doug McKenzie's
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: newest album that they've recorded with Geddy Lee of Rush.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: They were big time, man.
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: For what it's worth, Rush, who's one of the greatest
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: bands of all time, Take Off was actually their highest
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: charting US hit.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: It's crazy. I remember that. I mean, it was everywhere.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: And me and my friends would imitate them, you know,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: and we would make fun. We would say, hey, we're
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: going to try to get a pack of Funyuns. Let's
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: put a mouse in it, right? Just like the mouse
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: in the Elsinore beer. A silly, goofy thing that Moranis
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: will tell you. He's like, this came out of nowhere.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: We had no idea. He said it was really the
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: first time he experienced fame.
• 9:51
  Speaker 13: It was.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Because I can't remember if it was Vancouver. Some big
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Canadian city invited them down. And all of a sudden
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: there's a parade and there's people dressed up like that.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: them and shouting, take off, Adam. I mean, by the
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: tens of thousands. Really funny.
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: Again, it made them famous to a level that we
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: can't really even comprehend today. Because not everyone watches all
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: the same stuff. But yeah, it was a big deal.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: So check that out.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: It's great. Aside from it being hilariously funny and reminding
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: you of so many characters that came out of that
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: and so many great actors. I mean, the entire cast
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: ended up doing incredible things. It's also very emotional.
• 10:32
  Speaker 13: Really?
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Yes. It's also very emotional because of the people that
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: have recently passed away. That's right.
• 10:37
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: That were part of that.

• 15:21
  Speaker 1: He's not the most bombastic there, but he's close to it.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: Louie and Ted Cruz in a room would be.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Louie and John Fetterman.
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: Louie and John Fetterman. That's one of those things that
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: starts a wormhole.
• 15:33
  Speaker 17: Right.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: But you never know.
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure how that.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: You never know because we don't know how many Portoslavians
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: exist out there.
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: That's true. There could be a massive, massive lobby.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Or Yuko Rikin, whichever you prefer. But that's Louie's background.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: There might be a whole bunch of folks out there.
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: I believe we're going to get Louie in sometime at
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: 8 o'clock hour, get to our picks this week. So, yeah,
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I'll be ready for that. I did want to spend
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: a little bit of time talking about this, again, similar
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: to the Tex-Mex poll we talked about earlier. And this
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: has to do with shower habits, mainly what you do when.
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: What do you begin with?
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: You want my rundown?
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this is for you guys, too.
• 16:20
  Speaker 18: 979-695-1620.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: And the best way to do it, I guess, is
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: to put it in terms of what they polled. What
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: they polled was... What do you wash first?
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: When showering.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: When showering, you get into the shower.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: You bath, people are out.
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that. Well, y'all just sit in your own filth.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: And again, it's relaxing. I get that. But that's a
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: different animal. What do you wash first?
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, you want my line.
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: I would like to start with your line.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Start with the hair. Wash the hair with shampoo.
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Then... If I'm going to condition, which doesn't happen every shower.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Then I will condition.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: You're a little shocked there, aren't you? I'm a little shocked.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to take care of what I got left.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: So then I'll condition. Then I will soap the rest
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: of the parts, right?
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: All right. Starting probably after the shampoo, probably starting with
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: the armpit. Okay.
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 17:18
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: All right. So that actually was quite common. A lot
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: of people said hair.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: A lot of people imitate me.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: Is that what it is?
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: That's what it is. They found out my shower routine.
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: What I realized is I have a completely different.
• 17:31
  Speaker 18: Well.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: Because.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Aside from the obvious.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: When you don't have hair.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: But you still have to wash the scalp.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: Kind of.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: And it would make sense to me like you're washing
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: your car. Go from the top down so the rest
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: of all the dirt washes down.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: The top down is absolutely, I think, the best method.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: For those people who remember how to wash a car.
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you just, you know, it's again just in order
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: and then you move on. Now, the question that a
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: lot of people come up to eventually as you are
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: working your way down is where do you stop? And
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: it has to do with whether or not you wash
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: your feet and wash your legs or whether they are
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: essentially self cleaning portions of your body.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: Because everything else is washed down.
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: Bingo. Because in theory, and again, this is where feel
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: free to weigh in, 979-695-1620. There is a theory that
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: your legs and your feet are self-cleaning if you shower.
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: Because as you shower, water is in fact running with
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: soap down your legs, over your feet, and And there
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: is no need to scrub, lather, any of it. Just
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: let the water do its job.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: I will go back to the car washing analogy. I'm
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: talking about washing it by hand.
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: You're right.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: You still scrub your tires.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: You still would.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Oh, interesting. Interesting.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: I mean, see, I never did. I just spray them
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: and then hit them with the thing.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: I had to use a Brillo pad on the white walls.
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, you had white walls. All right. There we go.
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: Different strokes for different folks, my friend. Text messages as
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: the controversy begins. And, again, feel the need. Text us, 979-695-1620. Uh,
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: Martha says, no, skip the hair. You go through the face,
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: the face first. This is if you're on a skincare journey.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: I think the ladies might be more inclined to start
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: with the face. There's exfoliants and all that stuff that
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: you do.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: All the things.
• 19:49
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: All the things. I get that.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: The witchcraft.
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: Ryan, plus one top down. Hair, face, beard, and body.
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: Is there any other way? Well, Ryan, as it turns out,
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: there's quite a lot of ways.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: James, who might be the shower police.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: Okay, with some strong opinions.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Strong words here. James says you're not supposed to use
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: conditioner and soap. It's one or the other every other time.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: I've never heard such a thing.
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: You alternate?
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: And if I, like, the few times that my hair
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: has been washed at, like, a barbershop or a salon. Yeah.
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: I seem to remember them putting product in after the shampoo.
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: I've never met James. I'm going to guess James probably
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: has a rich, rich head of hair.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: James also says that rinsing is not washing. You need
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: to scrape the dead skin off. So James... has a
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: paint scraper in the soap dish in the shower.
• 20:51
  Speaker 17: I mean, I.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: Are there power tools for this? I could get into that.
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: Tony says what's really important is what he washed last.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: We all know what you washed last, Tony.
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: I don't think there's another option there, Tony.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: There's no going back after that.
• 21:03
  Speaker 19: All right.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: I feel like we're going to fixate on whether or
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: not legs and feet are self-cleaning, but I am interested
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: in your feedback on this. Stephanie's repulsed.
• 21:12
  Speaker 10: Heck no!
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: You have to scrub every part of your body, legs,
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: and feet included. Ryan also said... Ryan said, anyone who
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: believes that legs are self-cleaning probably just calls rain a
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: car wash. We've all been there, Ryan.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: We've all been there.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Follow-up from James. Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes. I guess
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: in relation to the comment about his full head of hair.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: About a rich head of hair, yeah. He says, I
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: used to. And then you're going to tell me... I'm
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: just saying, I still got a little bit left.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: We'll talk news next.

• 23:32
  Speaker 21: On this Friday, I'm thinking about the Wall Street Journal,
• 23:40
  Speaker 21: one of the most read newspapers in the world. Now,
• 23:48
  Speaker 21: the editorial page leans right conservatively. The news pages lean left.
• 23:55
  Speaker 21: I read the journal because the reporting is good. But
• 23:59
  Speaker 21: one of their columnists is a person named Peggy Noonan.
• 24:03
  Speaker 21: She was a senior speechwriter for President Bush the Elder
• 24:06
  Speaker 21: and President Reagan. She's an old-time traditional Republican.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Ms.
• 24:11
  Speaker 21: Noonan loathes Donald Trump. I don't know if it's anything personal,
• 24:18
  Speaker 21: but she attacks the president in column after column. She
• 24:22
  Speaker 21: closed the midterm season by writing the following, quote, this
• 24:26
  Speaker 21: is what I hope for, that it will not be
• 24:28
  Speaker 21: a close election, that the outcome is unmistakable. Let it
• 24:31
  Speaker 21: be clear and obvious, rebuke, a rejection, a rebellion, a
• 24:36
  Speaker 21: rout against the Republican Party. Well, Peggy Noonan got what
• 24:41
  Speaker 21: she wanted. But be careful out there, because the Democrats,
• 24:48
  Speaker 21: at least some of them, want to tear the entire
• 24:54
  Speaker 21: country apart. You will see that in the next two years.
• 25:01
  Speaker 21: Peggy Noonan should know better. Hatred is no way to vote.

• 27:48
  Speaker 1: 5 p.m. They were contacted by a door-to-door salesman who
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: says he was threatened by a relative of a woman
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: with whom he had recently spoken. The solicitor says he
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: had scheduled an appointment with the woman to give her
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: an estimate on new windows and had moved on to
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: another home. That's when 58-year-old Matthew Daniel Brown approached the
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: salesman and threatened to kill him. Brown claims he thought
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: the salesman was trying to take advantage of his 87-year-old
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: mother and admitted to driving around the neighborhood trying to
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: track him down. Because the salesman was in fear of
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: imminent serious bodily injury, Brown was arrested and charged with
• 28:24

• 29:53
  Speaker 1: losses in the 2026 midterms. On a recent podcast... Cruz
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: called the results a major rejection of the GOP.
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: It was not simply a bad 2006 midterm election. It
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: was a Watergate-level repudiation.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Cruz also acknowledged that he is now the only Republican
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: holding a statewide elected office. He criticized the Trump administration's policies,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: saying tariffs have made things too expensive and the war
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: with Iran has gone on too long.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: Tariffs have made everything expensive. too expensive. And the Iran
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: war has dragged on too long. It should have been brief, decisive,
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: and over.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Despite the political losses, Cruz said Republicans can rebuild and
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: predicts that Texas will turn red again. The picture is

• 30:48
  Speaker 1: of the Texas House.
• 30:50
  Speaker 23: It's been 23 years since a Democrat was elected Speaker
• 30:53
  Speaker 23: of the Texas House, but now that the Dems flipped
• 30:55
  Speaker 23: it on Election Day, we're seeing one name keep popping up.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: I am proud to support Symphonia Thompson for Speaker of
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: the Texas House.
• 31:03
  Speaker 23: That was Houston State Rep Ann Johnson, and here's why
• 31:05
  Speaker 23: she supports the woman commonly referred to as the Dean
• 31:08
  Speaker 23: of the Texas House.
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: She is a civil rights icon.
• 31:11
  Speaker 8: She led the charge to protect victims of human trafficking
• 31:14
  Speaker 8: long before anybody was talking about them.
• 31:16
  Speaker 23: First elected in 1972, Thompson is the longest serving woman
• 31:20
  Speaker 23: and black legislator in Texas history.
• 31:22
  Speaker 10: I've been privileged to be in this house for about
• 31:26
  Speaker 10: 53 years, not because I didn't have anything else to do.
• 31:29

  Speaker 1: the other team. What's going on, son? I don't know, coach.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: It's like I can't see the field clearly anymore. Everything's

  Speaker 1: a blur.

  Speaker 3: All right.
• 33:15
  Speaker 8: Okay.

  Speaker 4: love hearing from you. For instance, Chase texts in, guys,
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: if you haven't installed a cattle scratch post in your shower,
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: what are you even doing with your life?
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: I hadn't thought of it, Chase, but not a bad idea.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: You frou-frou that up a little bit, and it could
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: become the next bathroom accessory.
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you might have a business there, my friend. John
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: texts in, I have the John Luke Picard hair, but
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: I still shampoo my whole scalp.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, dude.
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: All right. Do whatever. Like I said, it just, I don't,
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: I guess I just quit seeing the point at some
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: level once I didn't have the long flowing locks to
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: be able to benefit from shampoo. But anyway, with that said,
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: weather today, very nice. Getting up to around 79, down
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: to the mid-60s tonight, and back up to the 75-ish tomorrow.
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: By Sunday, though, different story. High only getting to 65
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: and lows Sunday night down around 50 degrees or lower.
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: I'm crossing my fingers for lower. Weather is brought to
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: you by Malik. Be prepared for the next power outage
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: with Malik Service Company and a whole home backup generator
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: from Generac. Call Malik to schedule your appointment today. Did
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: you see that in the shifts across America, like in
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: the big changes that we have all experienced, there might
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: be another one that we didn't expect, a pink wave.
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: And that would be because people are seeing a growing
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: number of parents are less enthused to find out they
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: are expecting a boy.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: Did this come out of that whole thing where there
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: was this survey of women on video?
• 35:44
  Speaker 14: Hmm.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: That were saying that they were scared to have a
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: boy because of toxic masculinity.
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: I think it might, I think it might have something
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: to do with that. That, that, that, Hey, look, I, I,
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: if I had to, again, it's like, well, because again,
• 35:59
  Speaker 4: you don't get to pick.
• 36:00
  Speaker 20: No.
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: So, but if you had to pick, yeah, I think
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: maybe that's, that's what is, what is shifting it that, Which, again,
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: it's like they're not going to be toxic. They don't
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: toxic from birth.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: No. You got to.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: Make them toxic.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: That's all bull hot. That takes effort. The speculation that
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: they have in this survey is that you want to
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: have a girl because they say that females typically are
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: the glue of the family.
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: The glue of the family.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: That's what they're saying. They can be.
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: Relied upon to cohesively bond us all together.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: This is.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: I think it's probably stereotypes, right? Because you can have
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: certainly males that fill that role.
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: My question is, and again, I am not in a
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: position to speak on this. I don't have kids. You
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: are partially in a position to speak on this because
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: you have two children, both of them girls.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: And I think I can fully speak on this because
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: before having the children, I was scared to death to
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: have a girl. I wanted boys.
• 37:03
  Speaker 18: Ah.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: But more than anything, I want it healthy, right? Give
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: me 10 fingers, 10 toes, I don't care about the rest, right?
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: Having now, December 1st, my youngest child will be 18.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: So I can say, having now raised daughters to adulthood,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: I can't compare it to raising boys. I can tell you,
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: I didn't think I was built for it, but those
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: girls have turned out incredible.
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: They did turn out incredible. Did you find it a
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: stressful environment raising girls?
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: A little bit.
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: Did it freak you? Was it like, oh, my goodness.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: A little bit.
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: Were there problems that you didn't anticipate raising girls?
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: I don't really have problems that I didn't anticipate. Maybe
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: having to become a little bit more sensitive to emotions.
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Which I've always been empathetic. I've just never understood a
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: lot of female emotions.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: So I have to go by my parents on this one.
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: Three boys, one girl. And I've asked mom before, like,
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: so which is the easier one to raise? She's like, oh,
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: my goodness, girls by far. She's like, the boys were
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: like you guys were. Y'all were a handful. So I've
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: always been a bit under the impression that it might
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: be harder to raise boys.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know. It might be more challenging. It's the individual.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: Because my youngest daughter, who is an absolutely incredible young adult,
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: there were There was a period of about five years
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: where it was touching. Or got dicey. Where her pediatrician said,
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: and I quote, she's either going to save the world
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: or destroy it. I can't tell you which.
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: Jury's still out. Is the jury still out?
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Leaning heavily towards save the world.
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, seriously. 979-695-1620 is our phone number. Because again, you
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: guys have have all of the insight on this. And it,
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: it is interesting to me because I think if you're,
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: if you're in your twenties, you probably have a lot
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: of things in your head and I can see it
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: being scarier at some level to, to like, if you're,
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: it looks like it spoke mostly to women and women
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: are like, I just don't want any part of that.
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: I don't want to deal with raising boys. Which one
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: was the more difficult one to raise?
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: I can tell you this as well. I want to
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: add to the raising girls thing.
• 39:27
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: When we had girls, beautiful, beautiful girls, I realized that
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: that was God's sense of humor, his karmic payback for
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: my years of hard living. He said, fine, here we go.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Let's see how you deal with this.
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: Let's get a pair of daughters. Which do you think
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: was harder as a parent? boys or girls in getting
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: them to adulthood. I mean, do you think it changes today?
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: 979-695-1620 is our phone number. Hit us up. We'll see
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: what you guys think coming up after this.
• 40:03
  Speaker 12: Hi, this is Jim Daly with Focus on the Family.
• 40:05
  Speaker 12: And I want to thank Drs. James and Maria Childs

• 40:44
  Speaker 12: If your marriage is in trouble, it's possible to restore it,
• 40:48
  Speaker 12: but only if you ask the right question. The wrong
• 40:51
  Speaker 12: question is the one that most people ask. They ask,
• 40:55
  Speaker 12: do I want to work on my marriage? The reason
• 40:57
  Speaker 12: it's wrong is because wanting something is a function of
• 41:00
  Speaker 12: the emotions, and emotions, well, they come and go. A
• 41:04
  Speaker 12: couple may leave a counselor's office feeling hopeful, and by
• 41:08
  Speaker 12: the next morning feel hopeless all over again. Couples need
• 41:11
  Speaker 12: something deeper to sustain them throughout the process of recovery.
• 41:16
  Speaker 12: That's why the right question to ask yourself is, Am
• 41:19
  Speaker 12: I willing to work on my marriage?
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: Recovery is an act of the will.
• 41:24
  Speaker 12: Couples must choose to keep moving forward, even when their
• 41:27
  Speaker 12: circumstances seem bleak. As the saying goes, where there's a will,
• 41:31
  Speaker 12: there's a way. It's true in life, and it's true
• 41:34
  Speaker 12: in rebuilding a marriage as well.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: If you're willing to do.
• 41:37
  Speaker 12: What's necessary to restore your relationship, regardless of how you
• 41:40
  Speaker 12: feel at any given time, then good things can happen.
• 41:44
  Speaker 12: Everybody wants something better for their relationship, but only those
• 41:48
  Speaker 12: who make a commitment will get it. Moving your troubled
• 41:51
  Speaker 12: marriage out of conflict and into connection isn't easy. It
• 41:56
  Speaker 12: takes grit and hard work. You won't get from where
• 41:58
  Speaker 12: you are to where you hope to be without overcoming
• 42:01
  Speaker 12: a few challenges along the way. But you can do it.
• 42:05
  Speaker 12: It'll take more than a want to. It'll take the
• 42:07
  Speaker 12: determination to say, I will. To help your marriage thrive,

• 44:15
  Speaker 26: team is hitting the road this weekend and headed to
• 44:18
  Speaker 26: Columbia to take on South Carolina tomorrow afternoon. Head coach
• 44:22
  Speaker 26: Mike Elko spoke about what improvements he's seen from South
• 44:25
  Speaker 26: Carolina's quarterback Lenora Sellers and the Gamecocks offense.
• 44:29
  Speaker 7: I think probably more comfortable with the system. I think
• 44:32
  Speaker 7: obviously new offense, new coordinator. I think as he's gotten
• 44:35
  Speaker 7: comfortable with what they're asking him to do, I think
• 44:38
  Speaker 7: his decision-making has gotten a lot better. Obviously playing right
• 44:41
  Speaker 7: now at an elite level has made a ton of
• 44:43
  Speaker 7: explosive plays in the throw game, explosive plays with his legs.
• 44:46
  Speaker 7: We know firsthand how challenging he is to bring down,
• 44:50
  Speaker 7: and I think the perimeter is getting better too with
• 44:53
  Speaker 7: their comfort in the offense and what they're trying to do.
• 44:55
  Speaker 7: And so I think it's all just improved tremendously over
• 44:59
  Speaker 7: the last three weeks, and I think you're seeing that
• 45:01
  Speaker 7: in the results they're getting on the field.
• 45:03
  Speaker 26: Kickoff for tomorrow afternoon's game is set for 2 o'clock.
• 45:07
  Speaker 26: The Aggie volleyball team is gearing up for a pair
• 45:09
  Speaker 26: of road contests starting off with Vanderbilt tonight with first
• 45:13
  Speaker 26: serve set for 7 o'clock. The second match of the
• 45:16
  Speaker 26: weekend will be on Sunday afternoon against Missouri with first
• 45:19
  Speaker 26: serve set for 2 o'clock. The A & M men's
• 45:22
  Speaker 26: basketball team remains at Reed Arena tonight to close out
• 45:25
  Speaker 26: the opening week of the season. And the Aggies will
• 45:28
  Speaker 26: be gearing up tonight to take on North Kentucky with
• 45:31
  Speaker 26: tip-off set for 7 o'clock. The Aggie women's basketball team
• 45:35
  Speaker 26: defeated Louisiana 62-51 to stay undefeated last night inside Reed Arena.
• 45:41
  Speaker 26: Behind Emerald Parker and Kaylin Gilbert's impressive performance that combined
• 45:45
  Speaker 26: for 39 points. Parker led the way for the maroon
• 45:48
  Speaker 26: and white, scoring team-high 20 points and adding seven rebounds
• 45:52
  Speaker 26: in two blocks. Head coach Joni Taylor recapped the game
• 45:55
  Speaker 26: and spoke on Parker's performance.
• 45:57
  Speaker 20: I thought we were pressing the score. I think we
• 45:59
  Speaker 20: shared the basketball very well. Lafayette's quick. They're feisty. I
• 46:02
  Speaker 20: thought we were just careless with the basketball. Our goal
• 46:04
  Speaker 20: for tonight was paint touch three. Ball's got to touch
• 46:07
  Speaker 20: the paint first, and we did not do that at
• 46:08
  Speaker 20: all in the first half. Emerald was excellent on both
• 46:11
  Speaker 20: sides of the basketball in terms of how she dominated,
• 46:13
  Speaker 20: and every time she got it, she scored or got fouled,
• 46:15
  Speaker 20: made a play at the rim and put pressure on them.
• 46:19
  Speaker 20: And we've got to have a better awareness of who
• 46:22
  Speaker 20: has a hot hand and get the basketball to that person,
• 46:25
  Speaker 20: to that spot, to that play, whatever that is. I
• 46:27
  Speaker 20: thought we took too many threes, especially after we come out,
• 46:30
  Speaker 20: and we're 0 for 9 at halftime. We just didn't
• 46:33
  Speaker 20: have a good feel offensively, in my opinion, tonight.

  Speaker 1: Here's Brad Beard of Intercon.
• 47:56
  Speaker 25: I was in a store and heard a child tell
• 47:58
  Speaker 25: her mother, this one must be better because it costs more.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: What a naive concept.
• 48:02
  Speaker 25: Do adults sometimes fall into a similar trap? Recently, I've
• 48:05
  Speaker 25: had customers tell me they have received a competitor's bid,
• 48:07
  Speaker 25: which was five to ten times as expensive as Intercon's
• 48:10
  Speaker 25: quote for new windows. Are they really getting the right
• 48:12
  Speaker 25: value proposition? Fortunately, Energy Star certification provides a set of
• 48:16
  Speaker 25: uniform metrics to quickly compare the thermal efficiency of windows.
• 48:19
  Speaker 25: Windows have three basic components, frame material, insulated glass, and
• 48:23
  Speaker 25: balance mechanisms. How reliable is each component and are costs
• 48:26
  Speaker 25: associated with a warranty claim? Finally, the experience of the
• 48:29
  Speaker 25: installers can make a huge difference in the final product.
• 48:31
  Speaker 25: Do they install windows for a living or are they
• 48:33
  Speaker 25: subcontracted for the day? Intercon sells ENERGY STAR certified windows
• 48:37
  Speaker 25: with industry-leading warranties installed by our own full-time employees. Why
• 48:41
  Speaker 25: pay more if you can get everything you need at
• 48:43
  Speaker 25: a fair price from a locally owned business?

  Speaker 4: 1620-945-WTAW. The Infomaniacs. Good morning, guys. Today getting up to
• 49:09
  Speaker 4: a high 79, 80 degrees down to the 60s tonight
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: and up to the mid-70s tomorrow. And after that, nice
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: little cool down coming Sunday with highs only getting up
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: to the mid-50s. Weather is brought to you by our
• 49:23
  Speaker 4: friends at United Roofing and Sheet Metal, home of the
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: Duralast Roof System, the world's best roof. Give them a call, 268-ROOF,
• 49:29
  Speaker 4: or go to unitedroofingpros.com.
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: And.
• 49:36
  Speaker 4: Back to your text messages, we were asking a question.
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: This all was spawned from a survey that said that
• 49:43
  Speaker 4: more women today would prefer to have girls as opposed
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: to boys. We had to choose, and again, you don't
• 49:52
  Speaker 4: get to, but if you did, would you rather raise
• 49:54
  Speaker 4: girls or rather raise boys? Will brought up that a
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: lot of it comes from the idea that if you
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: raise a boy, they're going to they're going to surely
• 50:07
  Speaker 4: turn into a toxic male. And that's freaking a lot
• 50:12
  Speaker 4: of the youth out, which, okay, fine.
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: Whatever your perception of reality is, I guess that's fine.
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: But that said, best way to probably figure this out
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: is just to ask people who have raised kids if
• 50:25
  Speaker 4: one was easier to raise than the other. And a
• 50:30
  Speaker 4: lot of people have weighed in, interestingly enough, that the
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: youth might be right, that the girls might be the
• 50:39
  Speaker 4: easier ones to raise, which, again, is what my parents
• 50:42
  Speaker 4: told me.
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: But you know what? Raising a kid is not supposed
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: to be easy.
• 50:46
  Speaker 24: Fair.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 50:47
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: It should be hard. Sam weighs in, having two girls
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: and my neighbor having two boys the same age.
• 50:53
  Speaker 4: Oh, this is good, Sam.
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: Okay, we got a good sample here. I will say
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: girls are much easier to raise. They're less rambunctious.
• 51:00
  Speaker 8: Okay.
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: I think, you know, there's probably, there's a lot of,
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: truth to that. It says, but with the girls, I'm
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: currently starting to deal with that preteen big emotion.
• 51:10
  Speaker 4: Oh no. Oh, Sam brother. Is that, that's the real thing.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: Absolutely real thing.
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: They wouldn't, they go, when do they go crazy?
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: It just depends.
• 51:21
  Speaker 8: 12.
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: Look, it's just, it's a hard time for kids in general.
• 51:25
  Speaker 18: It is.
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: Um, but yeah, there's, you, Girls especially are dealing with emotions,
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: the big ones, that they're not used to feeling. In
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of ways, a lot of times they don't
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: have the necessary tools to communicate that to other people.
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: No. Yeah, that's how you learn.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: And I know that mine, I certainly went through that.
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: I have a good friend, former neighbor, who texted me
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: the other day asking me about some of his daughter's
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: behavior and whether or not that was normal. I was like, yeah, dude,
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: dead on. Dead on.
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: Jay, I've raised three boys, and I've always heard there's
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: a special place in heaven for parents that raise all boys.
• 52:08
  Speaker 4: All boys is a... I feel like my sister is
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: probably a moderating force on the family. I cannot imagine
• 52:14
  Speaker 4: life if it was just the three sons. That would
• 52:17
  Speaker 4: have been just tragic. So, yeah, Jay, I think you're
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: probably on to something there. Skipper, my wife and I raised,
• 52:25
  Speaker 4: get it, five kids!
• 52:27
  Speaker 3: Yes!
• 52:28
  Speaker 4: Five kids.
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: All right, we ought to have a good cross-section here.
• 52:31
  Speaker 4: All right, what was the breakdown? He says three boys,
• 52:34
  Speaker 4: two girls. And they're each different. But each one was
• 52:41
  Speaker 4: easy to raise. Were they, Skipper? I mean, it's not sarcasm,
• 52:48
  Speaker 4: I genuinely am.
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: Were they, Skipper? He said, as long as they understood
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: the rules and what we went by.
• 52:54
  Speaker 18: Ah.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: Right? But when they didn't understand.
• 52:56
  Speaker 4: Establish guardrail.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: You know, when I had girls, and a co-worker of
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: mine also had a girl, he brought up that his
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: neighbor had told him, and I'm going to try to
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: make this, I've got to clean it up a little bit.
• 53:08
  Speaker 11: Yes.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: He said that when you're raising boys, you only have
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: to worry about one boy.
• 53:13
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: When you're raising girls, you have to worry about... All
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: the boys.
• 53:17
  Speaker 4: Don't worry about every.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: Every single one of them.
• 53:20
  Speaker 4: So even if you do get girls, you're.
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: Going to deal with the boys anyway. Absolutely.
• 53:27
  Speaker 4: And can you imagine?
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: And your daughters will bring home some clinkers.
• 53:30
  Speaker 4: I was going to ask you... And.
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: You just pray that the roulette wheel ends.
• 53:35
  Speaker 4: What was your impression when they started bringing home these
• 53:37
  Speaker 4: wormy little creatures? Because that's what we are at that age.
• 53:41
  Speaker 4: Just wormy little creatures.
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: First of all, there were several that there were some
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: intimidation tactics that were used to make sure that they
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: knew where they stood.
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: Cleaning the guns, whatever else.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: All the usual things. But I will tell you with
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: my girls, they started with boys, both of them, that,
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know, There was reasons why those didn't work out.
• 54:04
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: Not the type of individuals that I would have selected
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: for them. Yeah. The next ones were both higher quality. Oh, good.
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: With each additional relationship.
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: Oh, they got better and better and better.
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: They learned what to look for.
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: And I will tell you that my oldest, she's with
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: a boy that should it work out, I'd be just
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: thrilled to call my son.
• 54:25
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: Absolutely thrilled. My youngest, who is not in a relationship now,
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: but her last relationship, As I told him, I said,
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: you know, it's, you're in the right direction.
• 54:38
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: You may not have been Mr. Right, but you're in
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: the right direction. We're getting there. So both of them
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: are learning that. Both of them are learning that.
• 54:46
  Speaker 4: Any of them with, how was the facial hair on
• 54:48
  Speaker 4: some of the early ones?
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, the early ones didn't have any facial hair. Oh,
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: they did?
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: Not you.
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: We're talking, you know.
• 54:54
  Speaker 4: Mullets. Yeah.
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: Mullets show up. One of them, the oldest, her first
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: boyfriend was from a nearby very small town. Real glad
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: that one didn't work out.
• 55:05
  Speaker 4: Jennifer, my daughter is scared to have boys because her
• 55:08
  Speaker 4: little brother is wild. She sees boys as being wild
• 55:13
  Speaker 4: little natives, and she'd rather just have girls. I had
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: two girls and then a boy, and my husband's aunt
• 55:20
  Speaker 4: told me the goal of raising a boy in this
• 55:21
  Speaker 4: family is just keeping them alive until they're an adult.
• 55:27
  Speaker 4: We had our first set of stitches at 18 months.
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: That a chabonner.
• 55:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah. You know, that, but that's.
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: I had stitches at the same age.
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: Just keeping them alive. That is the baseline for all kids.
• 55:42
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: You just got to keep them alive. Chase says, if
• 55:46
  Speaker 4: you're not raising heathens, you know, you should be fine.
• 55:52
  Speaker 4: Skipper says that in his house, he never had to
• 55:57
  Speaker 4: worry too much because he had a batch of boys.
• 56:00
  Speaker 4: And then the girls came later. And the big brothers
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: were overseas. He was able to, yeah.
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: He installed sheepdogging. He installed the protector gene in there.
• 56:10
  Speaker 4: Exactly. That's what you do. Then it's work smarter, not harder. Skipper,
• 56:15
  Speaker 4: work smarter, not harder. I salute you. Coming up, it's
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: about pick-em time. Get ready. Senator Louie Bellina, as one
• 56:27
  Speaker 4: person in the Brass Valley apparently voted. I need to
• 56:31
  Speaker 4: go check the stats, but that is terrifying and also
• 56:35
  Speaker 4: awesome at the same time. We're going to square up.
• 56:38
  Speaker 4: Try to pick this week's slate of SEC football games.
• 56:42
  Speaker 4: That is coming up after news.
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: Do I have to stand when he walks in the room?
• 56:44
  Speaker 4: Well, what do you do when it says that? Hail
• 56:47
  Speaker 4: to the Chief is the president. Does he get walk-in music?
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: He can pick his own.
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll figure it out later. We're 1620, 94.5 WTAW
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: College Station. Brian, happy Friday.
