- 4:01Speaker 5: whine about things that you don't like.
- 4:03Speaker 3: I mean it.
- 4:03Speaker 5: Hell, this whole format news talk radio has been built
- 4:07Speaker 5: on whiners. Frankly, at some level you may have it,
- 4:11Speaker 5: deny it.
- 4:12Speaker 1: You may have a point and deny it. I don't
- 4:14Speaker 1: like listening to whiners in real life, though, I've got

- 4:37Speaker 1: But that that okay, okay, Well we'll shift it back
- 4:41Speaker 1: a day for next week.
- 4:42Speaker 5: I want to I want to highlight some of the
- 4:43Speaker 5: best whining I have heard across America today, though, starting
- 4:50Speaker 5: with an unbelievable development to me and I say, unbelievable development, man,
- 4:56Speaker 5: But every day a story comes out about someone in
- 4:58Speaker 5: college athletics. It just does something even crazy. It is
- 5:01Speaker 5: the wild West out there.
- 5:03Speaker 1: It is the wild West.
- 5:04Speaker 6: It's the wild West.
- 5:07Speaker 5: An attorney representing Washington Commander's quarterback Jaden Daniels remember him
- 5:11Speaker 5: from LSU.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Yeah, plan for the Washington Redskins.
- 5:14Speaker 5: Now, yes, there you go, uh, he informed LSU the
- 5:20Speaker 5: LSU is no longer allowed to use his name, image
- 5:23Speaker 5: and lightness. He sent them a cease and desist order.
- 5:27Speaker 5: To not use anything I'm gonna do with him ever again. Now,
- 5:29Speaker 5: even though they wont Heisman there, it was a legacy
- 5:32Speaker 5: player there. Now never say my name again.
- 5:34Speaker 3: Do you know why?
- 5:36Speaker 5: Because they had the audacity to give someone else his number,
- 5:41Speaker 5: Dear God, number five, This is Jalden's number. This is
- 5:47Speaker 5: not Mayden's number.
- 5:48Speaker 1: This is not a good look, man. I mean, you are,
- 5:51Speaker 1: you have made it to the league. You are, you
- 5:54Speaker 1: are a great quarterback and the lead had fantastic rookie season. Yep,
- 5:58Speaker 1: you're doing wonderful things for franchise that frankly doesn't deserve it.
- 6:02Speaker 5: That sucks. While daniels jersey has not been retired by
- 6:06Speaker 5: the Tigers, it is the first time a player is
- 6:08Speaker 5: warrant number five.
- 6:09Speaker 3: This is the quote.
- 6:11Speaker 5: The Daniels family is deeply disappointed and feels profoundly disrespected
- 6:19Speaker 5: by LSU's decision to give Jaden's number to another player.
- 6:25Speaker 5: Jaden and his family had every reason to believe this
- 6:27Speaker 5: number would remain a meaningful part of his LSU legacy,
- 6:30Speaker 5: would be honored protected recognition of his extraordinary contributions to
- 6:33Speaker 5: the university.
- 6:34Speaker 1: I have I have an issue with retired numbers in
- 6:37Speaker 1: all sports.
- 6:38Speaker 6: I question, yes, one, what I don't just I know
- 6:43Speaker 6: him not the same age he was quarterback Bellacian, Right,
- 6:48Speaker 6: what did he do that was so memorable that his
- 6:51Speaker 6: number never needed to be used.
- 6:52Speaker 2: To get.
- 6:55Speaker 5: Third Heisman?
- 6:56Speaker 7: Did any win a national championship? Anna Heisman?
- 6:58Speaker 6: So then I don't think he has an even to
- 7:00Speaker 6: complain because Joe Burrow's numbers not being retired.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Yeah, well, good argument. Yeah, no, Harley, Riley can argue
- 7:07Speaker 1: that before the court of opinion, right there.
- 7:09Speaker 3: But you mentioned this.
- 7:10Speaker 1: I don't agree with any retirements of numbers in any
- 7:14Speaker 1: sport because numbers in athletics are finite.
- 7:18Speaker 8: Yeah, there's only so many of them men.
- 7:21Speaker 1: And they're broken down by position group. And the numbers
- 7:25Speaker 1: that you're going to see retired, more often than not,
- 7:27Speaker 1: are going to be typically offensive players.
- 7:29Speaker 5: Right. I think the idea, the idea of retiring a
- 7:32Speaker 5: college player's number is hilarious.
- 7:35Speaker 1: Right, So many kids come through.
- 7:37Speaker 5: If you can make it to the pros, you make
- 7:40Speaker 5: it to the NFL and convince a team to say, hey,
- 7:42Speaker 5: we're not gonna we're gonna deulve this out anymore. Congrats
- 7:45Speaker 5: Mountain Top, You're good. Don't have a problem with that,
- 7:49Speaker 5: if you're in college, you're still you're still not an
- 7:53Speaker 5: eight lister, like.
- 7:54Speaker 8: I get it, get paid a lot.
- 7:55Speaker 5: Even if you're a Heisman winner, you still haven't made
- 7:57Speaker 5: it to the top.
- 7:58Speaker 1: And let's face it, these kids no loyalty to the school. No, no,
- 8:02Speaker 1: not these days.
- 8:04Speaker 6: And I'm gonna even throw this argument in to say
- 8:08Speaker 6: Johnny Monzel's number is not retired, and yes you want
- 8:11Speaker 6: a Heisman as well, but I'm sorry that he truly
- 8:14Speaker 6: is out of everything that's ever happened, the face of
- 8:16Speaker 6: what nil could have been, because he would have been
- 8:18Speaker 6: paid more.
- 8:19Speaker 8: Than anybody richer, richer.
- 8:24Speaker 6: The amount of money that this university has made off him.
- 8:26Speaker 6: If anyone's number could be retired and actually have a
- 8:29Speaker 6: decent argument, it's gonna.
- 8:30Speaker 1: Be go back through history and pick out numbers. Here
- 8:34Speaker 1: at A and m A.
- 8:36Speaker 6: Ceason desist because I was just talking about recent A season.
- 8:39Speaker 8: Desist. They can't use your your picture for when you
- 8:44Speaker 8: played for them.
- 8:45Speaker 3: Like what is that?
- 8:45Speaker 8: That is?
- 8:46Speaker 5: That's pay To contrast that, here's a whine from one
- 8:50Speaker 5: of our listeners, Jennifer. She wants to wind about coworkers
- 8:53Speaker 5: putting their entire cooler box in the fridge instead of
- 8:56Speaker 5: pulling out the food so the rest of us can have.
- 8:59Speaker 5: That's just that's a rational wine.
- 9:01Speaker 1: That is a rational wine.
- 9:02Speaker 5: Now let's go back to another one. Residents of Los Angeles, California.
- 9:09Speaker 5: They have a Universal Studios there. You wear that theme park?
- 9:15Speaker 1: No, No, I mean I knew that those existed. I've
- 9:17Speaker 1: been to the one in Florida, but I did not
- 9:19Speaker 1: know they. I guess I kind of knew.
- 9:21Speaker 5: Just dropped a hot new coaster, Fast and Furious, the
- 9:24Speaker 5: Hollywood Drift. It's too loud for the next door neighbors
- 9:30Speaker 5: who live next to a golf course.
- 9:32Speaker 3: Here. Check it out.
- 9:33Speaker 5: This is them complaining about the roller coaster and a
- 9:36Speaker 5: theme park that they lived near to.
- 9:38Speaker 9: Thirty forty seconds, you just kept hearing screams, and it's like,
- 9:42Speaker 9: this is going to be our new sound in the
- 9:44Speaker 9: neighborhood all day long. Very peaceful, you know. So that
- 9:47Speaker 9: roller coaster has it's a game changer.
- 9:49Speaker 7: Five minutes you hear and you're like, is this really happening.
- 9:54Speaker 6: I'm sitting here at my desk doing work and there's
- 9:57Speaker 6: like this crazy roller coaster sound.
- 9:59Speaker 5: Sorry about you, Yeah, I get you live you live
- 10:04Speaker 5: next to a theme park. You live next to a
- 10:08Speaker 5: theme park. What are you talking about?
- 10:11Speaker 1: Yeah, you didn't. You didn't hear other noises coming from
- 10:14Speaker 1: the theme park before the roller coaster Versal Studios.
- 10:17Speaker 5: They're actually gonna try to work with them. They're gonna
- 10:19Speaker 5: go out and do some noise studies. So it's some
- 10:20Speaker 5: barriers anything else like that.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Like hand out a bunch of noise canceling headphones.
- 10:25Speaker 3: Do that, that's what you need.
- 10:27Speaker 5: Just go pay one hundred and twenty five bucks each,
- 10:30Speaker 5: take them around, put a Universal Studios logo on them.
- 10:34Speaker 1: You could put even fancy your headphones on it. I mean,
- 10:37Speaker 1: get them the top of the line.
- 10:38Speaker 5: The best of the best, the best of the only,
- 10:41Speaker 5: the best for elite whiners.
- 10:43Speaker 1: Either that or offer them water balloon launchers.
- 10:47Speaker 5: A nice tripuche yes throw back sixteen twenty ninety four
- 10:51Speaker 5: five wt W. Do you like the trip reference?
- 10:53Speaker 1: I love it. I love you get during the fall
- 10:57Speaker 1: when they have the pumpkin chunkin contest. Yes, I will
- 11:00Speaker 1: watch those tribute shas toss those gords into the sky.
- 11:04Speaker 3: Terrifying.
- 11:05Speaker 8: We were just terrifying.
- 11:07Speaker 5: One everyone does everyone you know once in a while,
- 11:11Speaker 5: like I want to be around someone who owns a tribute.
- 11:15Speaker 1: Oh no, I want to own one. Oh lord, I'll
- 11:17Speaker 1: put it in my collection with my cannon. You know.
- 11:21Speaker 1: We were talking about that, and then I had seen
- 11:23Speaker 1: a news story earlier today where this they found some skeleton,
- 11:27Speaker 1: some ancient skeleton somewhere in Europe. Yeah, that they identified that.
- 11:31Speaker 1: That's that's the person, the first one they can positively say.
- 11:35Speaker 1: This guy was killed by a tribu.
- 11:37Speaker 3: Sha was it?
- 11:37Speaker 8: Was it because he was just like a flat piece
- 11:40Speaker 8: of paper?
- 11:41Speaker 1: Is that bolder on top of him? Yeah?
- 11:42Speaker 5: Yeah, that's an awful way to go. I'm sorry, Riley,
- 11:47Speaker 5: I canceled the whining segment too quickly. You had something
- 11:52Speaker 5: you wanted to whine about.
- 11:53Speaker 6: So there was a list that kind of got sent
- 11:56Speaker 6: out here recently about the best college towns in America.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Every year, and just about every year, we whine about it.
- 12:04Speaker 3: Okay, So let me give a little.
- 12:07Speaker 6: Bit of reasoning behind the list before I tell you
- 12:10Speaker 6: it right first, it's decided that have you lifting a
- 12:12Speaker 6: rank of the best college towns for us.
- 12:14Speaker 7: The list is focused on places.
- 12:15Speaker 6: Where colleges help drive local economic check culture, lifestyle, and
- 12:21Speaker 6: that they factor in things like population and other well
- 12:24Speaker 6: known college town rankings, so just basically being an overall
- 12:27Speaker 6: good community.
- 12:28Speaker 1: They're taking rankings from somebody else and the population right
- 12:32Speaker 1: of the community, and those are those are the categories
- 12:35Speaker 1: we're getting hurt in here.
- 12:36Speaker 5: Well, it depends on the count population because like I've
- 12:38Speaker 5: always been like.
- 12:42Speaker 8: Austin's not a college, That's what I'm saying.
- 12:44Speaker 1: But it's high on the list because they're including populations
- 12:48Speaker 1: on this list. Well, I'm saying they're higher on the
- 12:49Speaker 1: list and other towns are because of the population of
- 12:53Speaker 1: the community.
- 12:54Speaker 7: So I've got the.
- 12:55Speaker 6: Top ten I'm going to go through. I'm gonna say
- 12:57Speaker 6: young comment as I go. But the number ten spot
- 13:00Speaker 6: was the University of Illinois.
- 13:01Speaker 3: Trash.
- 13:03Speaker 1: I never been to Champagne, Illinois, but it's Illinois.
- 13:06Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just nothing I'd care about continue.
- 13:09Speaker 7: University of Wyoming's number nine.
- 13:11Speaker 3: Now, look, I would have to I can't. Yeah, that's pretty.
- 13:14Speaker 1: I mean that's Cowboys School right there.
- 13:16Speaker 5: It is Cowboys School. It's uh, it's beautiful up there, gorgeous.
- 13:20Speaker 5: It'll it gets so winter's a little tough, a little, yeah,
- 13:23Speaker 5: a little, but you'll you'll get some scenery.
- 13:26Speaker 1: Man. I would I would thrive there.
- 13:28Speaker 6: I think Number eight is Purdue University.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Now where's Purdue? Purdue is in Indiana as well, and
- 13:35Speaker 1: Purdue has some reputation. Our current marketing leader here at
- 13:40Speaker 1: Texas A and M University came out of amazing work.
- 13:43Speaker 1: You know, they've they've had some cool things happening pdue.
- 13:47Speaker 6: Number seven is the University of California, Berkeley.
- 13:50Speaker 7: I don't agree with this one. I'm going to say
- 13:52Speaker 7: like this, I would have put U c l A above.
- 13:54Speaker 1: I would have cut California out of the list entirely.
- 13:57Speaker 1: Where is Berkeley full of hippies has been forever?
- 14:00Speaker 5: It's like it's up it's probably I don't know, Yeah,
- 14:04Speaker 5: all right.
- 14:05Speaker 6: Number six is the University of Wisconsin. I don't know
- 14:08Speaker 6: who came up with that one, but mads.
- 14:10Speaker 1: Madison's a cool place. From what I understand. I am
- 14:13Speaker 1: very tied into the university.
- 14:15Speaker 5: Yeah, that's I can see it. I've gotta give Madison
- 14:18Speaker 5: a pass.
- 14:19Speaker 7: Number five is Florida State University.
- 14:22Speaker 5: Absolutely disgusting. Did Tallahassee, Florida been to tallah have not?
- 14:27Speaker 1: But you know I've never was a wretched place. Yeah, Florida,
- 14:30Speaker 1: I mean the places I visited in Florida. Have been
- 14:32Speaker 1: beaches and theme parks and whatnot, but I just don't
- 14:35Speaker 1: like the humidity there.
- 14:37Speaker 6: Yeah, and the only SEC school in this ranking is
- 14:42Speaker 6: at number four and it's the University.
- 14:44Speaker 5: Of Florida, Gainesville.
- 14:46Speaker 7: Yep, Gainesville, Florida.
- 14:48Speaker 5: Again, I've been there.
- 14:50Speaker 7: I thought it was beautiful.
- 14:51Speaker 6: I thought it seems like a very fun town. I
- 14:55Speaker 6: don't know if I would rank it the best SEC school.
- 14:58Speaker 5: See, this is I You're gonna have to answer since
- 15:01Speaker 5: you have in front of you. The big thing is
- 15:03Speaker 5: the only SEC. You said, the only SEC school in
- 15:06Speaker 5: the top ten. And I've heard a lot of this
- 15:08Speaker 5: is I feel like we're getting district.
- 15:10Speaker 1: There's bias.
- 15:10Speaker 5: There's such bias, and I get it. Everyone hates the
- 15:12Speaker 5: elis you or the SEC because you know they aren't
- 15:15Speaker 5: the SEC. But if I had to pick the best,
- 15:19Speaker 5: and I'm not even going to be a homer and
- 15:21Speaker 5: say college Station, Tuscaloos is a great college town.
- 15:25Speaker 1: It is Oxford.
- 15:25Speaker 5: It's a great college town.
- 15:27Speaker 3: Athens, Georgia, Athens.
- 15:29Speaker 6: I'm Axanda is probably one of the best college towns
- 15:31Speaker 6: there is.
- 15:32Speaker 5: Everyone loves tucal Go to Tuscaloosa and don't have a
- 15:34Speaker 5: good time. I mean, I'll even say you can't count
- 15:36Speaker 5: Baton Rouge because it's Baton Rouge, bigger city.
- 15:39Speaker 7: But they know how to have fun.
- 15:40Speaker 5: You can't have a bad time, no talking about with

- 15:48Speaker 10: Need to be.
- 15:49Speaker 1: Batteries, flying food and felonies.
- 15:52Speaker 5: I'd see a good fire in the parking lot of
- 15:54Speaker 5: horses anyway, I continue, So number four is Gainesville.
- 15:56Speaker 7: All right. Number three is the University of Virginia.
- 16:00Speaker 1: Charlotte's you like couch burning and things like that. That's
- 16:04Speaker 1: West virgin Now aren't they the same thing?
- 16:07Speaker 5: Close enough?
- 16:08Speaker 6: I will give number two credit because I have heard
- 16:11Speaker 6: a lot about them. I've also seen and I've had
- 16:14Speaker 6: friends that go to have gone to school here, and
- 16:16Speaker 6: they talk about how incredibly fun it is.
- 16:19Speaker 7: It is the University of Arizona State.
- 16:21Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's it's known.
- 16:22Speaker 7: That is a blast.
- 16:24Speaker 1: That's a party school.
- 16:25Speaker 5: Like nobody that is that's the best forumat I think
- 16:29Speaker 5: never remember.
- 16:29Speaker 1: Yeah, there's there's people that go there, just a major
- 16:33Speaker 1: in of that's.
- 16:37Speaker 6: But I will say they are a top ten too.
- 16:39Speaker 6: I would even put them. I agree with them as
- 16:41Speaker 6: a top five school. I've heard nothing but great things
- 16:43Speaker 6: about there.
- 16:44Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, good luck, good luck in the interview with
- 16:46Speaker 1: that degree going up against a nag I.
- 16:48Speaker 6: Think I think you would talking about post call in

- 16:53Speaker 1: I know.
- 16:53Speaker 5: Isn't that where camp Scatabow came from? That that that
- 16:57Speaker 5: that walking concussion.
- 16:59Speaker 1: That he was a he was a sun devil.
- 17:01Speaker 8: He was, he was a sun. He is the absolute
- 17:04Speaker 8: embodiment of hisself.
- 17:05Speaker 1: I love him. I love him.
- 17:08Speaker 8: He's not gonna be able to use his legs in three.
- 17:10Speaker 1: Years, but for these next three years, it's gonna be
- 17:14Speaker 1: fun to watch.
- 17:15Speaker 8: Still was a more credible football player?
- 17:18Speaker 1: No, he's only he may be a more credible survivor
- 17:21Speaker 1: of CTE.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Right, So who who won this?
- 17:23Speaker 7: So number one?
- 17:25Speaker 6: I almost actually went to college here because I found
- 17:27Speaker 6: the university beautiful. I don't know much about it. I
- 17:30Speaker 6: wouldn't have put them at number one. Y'all said that
- 17:32Speaker 6: you could see it.
- 17:33Speaker 5: University of Michigan, Michigan man Ann, Arbor and Arber got
- 17:36Speaker 5: the people people rave about. It's nice, all right, it's green,
- 17:41Speaker 5: it's pretty, it's it's you know, it's too a little
- 17:43Speaker 5: too close to Detroit.
- 17:44Speaker 9: For me.
- 17:45Speaker 5: But whatever. But the thing is, like everyone loses their
- 17:47Speaker 5: mind over like Michigan being the prototypical like America. And
- 17:50Speaker 5: this is written by big ten people.
- 17:51Speaker 3: One or big give the props.
- 17:55Speaker 1: There are some great big ten schools.
- 17:56Speaker 8: It ain't him even I'm not even.
- 17:59Speaker 1: In college stand Brian conversation will never make that list.
- 18:02Speaker 5: I think I think we deserve to be topp. I'd
- 18:04Speaker 5: say top twenty five. I'm not even gonna I'm not
- 18:06Speaker 5: even gonna be audacious and be like we should be
- 18:09Speaker 5: a number, but top twenty five, you gotta It doesn't matter.
- 18:14Speaker 1: It doesn't matter no matter what these people say. You
- 18:17Speaker 1: can look at the intry enrollment statistics of SEC schools,
- 18:22Speaker 1: Old Missus blowing it out of the water. They're growing faster.
- 18:25Speaker 3: Everyone wants to come here, man, all.
- 18:27Speaker 1: The people from the Northeast and the Northwest. These kids
- 18:30Speaker 1: want a traditional Southern college experience and they're coming to
- 18:34Speaker 1: the SEC exactly.
- 18:35Speaker 5: So I mean, but you know what, like this is good.
- 18:37Speaker 5: Maybe we do need something to say that we suck. Yeah,
- 18:40Speaker 5: stop it, just stop, don't don't.
- 18:42Speaker 1: Yeah, don't stay over there, It's fine, go to UC Berkeley,
- 18:45Speaker 1: you'll love it.
- 18:46Speaker 6: Yeah, it don't go to like A and M or
- 18:48Speaker 6: even Georgia, because no, they're not fun at all.
- 18:50Speaker 5: Michigan is the Michigan is the school that canceled grades
- 18:54Speaker 5: for freshman They did what.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Yeah, so do not know this?
- 18:58Speaker 8: This is wild.
- 18:59Speaker 1: They're going strictly to pass fail you.
- 19:02Speaker 5: It's a is a If you go to the University
- 19:05Speaker 5: Nation as a freshman, you will no longer be graded.
- 19:07Speaker 5: It will be strictly pass fail until you get to
- 19:10Speaker 5: your sophomore year.
- 19:12Speaker 1: Credit or no credit they have number.
- 19:15Speaker 3: Yeah, they just don't care anymore.
- 19:17Speaker 1: Well, they're saying that it takes pressure off of the
- 19:20Speaker 1: young steed games. It's college pressure.
- 19:24Speaker 8: Sure, it's what it's supposed to do.
- 19:26Speaker 3: It doesn't take pressure off of it delays the pressure.
- 19:29Speaker 1: It does, and it doesn't enable them to figure out
- 19:31Speaker 1: the things they need to do to handle that pressure.
- 19:33Speaker 5: Yeah, you gotta like it's so, I mean, I don't know.
- 19:36Speaker 3: Maybe that yeah, maybe that bumps it up.
- 19:38Speaker 5: A little bit.
- 19:39Speaker 1: Not in my mind?
- 19:41Speaker 5: Is that crazy?
- 19:43Speaker 1: Not in my mind?
- 19:43Speaker 5: Never any respect.

- 20:04Speaker 1: We should learn the tax rate from the Bransis County
- 20:06Speaker 1: Appraisal District so we'll better know what to expect when
- 20:09Speaker 1: it comes to the property tax increase in next year's budget.
- 20:13Speaker 1: The public hearing for that will be at the council
- 20:15Speaker 1: meeting on August twenty seventh. Council will vote on spending
- 20:19Speaker 1: about four hundred thousand dollars to upgrade landscaping and benches
- 20:22Speaker 1: in the Northgate Patricia Street promenade, and two rezoning items
- 20:26Speaker 1: will be discussed. Developers want to change the land use
- 20:30Speaker 1: designation for about twelve and a half acres at the

- 20:35Speaker 1: the barracks from general commercial to urban residential and rezone
- 20:39Speaker 1: it to multifamily from rule. There is also a request

- 20:54Speaker 1: is behind bars for the thirty seventh time. Forty seven
- 20:58Speaker 1: year old Melvin Earl Thompson, Junior, arrested Wednesday for possession
- 21:01Speaker 1: of a significant amount of drugs and evating arrest. Brian
- 21:05Speaker 1: Police initiated a traffic stop on Thompson near the nine
- 21:09Speaker 1: hundred block of West seventeenth Street just after two am.
- 21:12Speaker 1: He was on a motor scooter and failed to stop
- 21:15Speaker 1: at a stop sign. Arrest report say Thompson smelled of marijuana,
- 21:19Speaker 1: so officers attempted a probable cause search of the man.
- 21:23Speaker 1: He scooted approximately twelve feet before officers stopped him and
- 21:27Speaker 1: placed him in handcuffs. Police found eleven bangies containing more
- 21:30Speaker 1: than eight and a half grams of crack cocaine and

- 21:48Speaker 1: to the latest numbers, inflation cooled slightly, dipping by one
- 21:53Speaker 1: tenth of a percentage point from June to July. It's
- 21:56Speaker 1: gone from three point five percent to three point four percent. However,
- 22:00Speaker 1: it wasn't enough to reverse the high prices seen in
- 22:03Speaker 1: many sectors like groceries, transportation, or services. Here's TSN's Elizabeth Schultz.
- 22:10Speaker 11: This was pretty much in line with expectations. That three
- 22:12Speaker 11: point four percent inflation rate is about where analysts thought
- 22:16Speaker 11: it would be when you look at kind of across
- 22:18Speaker 11: the board prices in the economy, it is it's a
- 22:21Speaker 11: good thing that we don't see that number going up.
- 22:23Speaker 11: That inflation isn't accelerating, but it is still above where
- 22:27Speaker 11: the Federal Reserve and overall households want inflation to be.
- 22:31Speaker 1: The majority of local school districts in our area have
- 22:34Speaker 1: returned to class Burlison County Sheriff Bill Rios has a
- 22:38Speaker 1: reminder for drivers.
- 22:40Speaker 12: Let's make sure we're paying attention to our driving habits
- 22:42Speaker 12: when we're around these schools. And let's not forget about
- 22:45Speaker 12: the school buses. They have their red flashing lights and
- 22:48Speaker 12: stop signs that come out when they're loading and unloading,
- 22:51Speaker 12: and those are not just suggestions you must stop, because
- 22:54Speaker 12: if the Sheriff's department sees you, or any other law
- 22:57Speaker 12: enforcement agency sees you out there and you pass these
- 22:59Speaker 12: school buses while they're loading or unloading, you'll be issued
- 23:02Speaker 12: a citation, and those citations are quite expensive.
- 23:06Speaker 1: In Texas. Your first defense can result in a fine
- 23:08Speaker 1: up to two hundred and fifty dollars, and the ticket
- 23:12Speaker 1: cannot be dismissed via defensive driving. Second offenses can result
- 23:16Speaker 1: in fines between one thousand and two thousand, plus potential
- 23:19Speaker 1: loss of your driver's license for up to six months.
- 23:22Speaker 1: You must stop from either direction on two lane or
- 23:25Speaker 1: multi lane roads without a physical barrier. Texas is ranked
- 23:29Speaker 1: second worst in the nation for women's health. A new
- 23:32Speaker 1: subcommittee established in Austin aims to change that.
- 23:36Speaker 3: State Rep.
- 23:37Speaker 13: Co Trade of Pearson's been selected to oversee the new
- 23:39Speaker 13: subcommittee on Maternal Health, Menopause, and Access to evidence based Medicine.
- 23:44Speaker 13: State House Speaker Dustin Burrows released a statement saying we
- 23:47Speaker 13: are empowering Texas women with greater access to the resources
- 23:51Speaker 13: they need. Burrows also added six new interim charges for
- 23:54Speaker 13: the Public Health Committee, including the study of hormone replacement
- 23:58Speaker 13: therapy to treat menopause and the study of ways to
- 24:01Speaker 13: reduce administrative barriers for new parents, including the automatic insurance
- 24:05Speaker 13: enrollment of newborns. In Austin, Chris Fox tsend News.
- 24:11Speaker 1: Texas agg Commissioner Sid Miller is slashing out at us
- 24:14Speaker 1: AG Secretary Brook Rowlins after thousands of pounds of beef
- 24:18Speaker 1: from Argentina bypassed a required federal reinspection.
- 24:22Speaker 2: Brook Rawlins and the USDA dropped the ball. There's no
- 24:25Speaker 2: excuse for this.
- 24:26Speaker 1: There is absolutely no excuse.
- 24:28Speaker 2: How do you lose a trailer truck load of uninspected beef?
- 24:33Speaker 2: I don't have an answer for that, but someone needs
- 24:36Speaker 2: to give us an answer, and we need to fix
- 24:39Speaker 2: that problem. This is totally unacceptable.
- 24:42Speaker 1: The beef was distributed in Texas and Florida before USDA
- 24:45Speaker 1: discovered the problem. Packages will have an Argentine establishment number

- 25:46Speaker 1: The quarter bark is Reavey.
- 25:49Speaker 5: Yes he is the queen forever. I was reading this,
- 25:55Speaker 5: think about how many subscriptions we have nowadays? Like the
- 25:57Speaker 5: average subscription.
- 25:58Speaker 1: Got I don't a lot?
- 25:59Speaker 10: You?
- 26:00Speaker 3: Okay? Do you?
- 26:01Speaker 5: This is the over under. I'm gonna give you this number.
- 26:05Speaker 5: I I'm ashamed to tell you how much I pay.
- 26:09Speaker 5: I might do that coming up. The average American at
- 26:13Speaker 5: this point carries one hundred eleven dollars a month in subscriptions.
- 26:17Speaker 5: Does that seem accurate.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I would think so. I would think that's a
- 26:22Speaker 1: little light.
- 26:23Speaker 5: I would think that's not even close. And again I'm
- 26:28Speaker 5: I'm guessing what they do is they count some things
- 26:30Speaker 5: as subscriptions. I mean technically, if you have cable and interview.
- 26:33Speaker 1: You have the streaming man, if you've got more than
- 26:35Speaker 1: one service, yeah, you're over that.
- 26:36Speaker 5: I okay, So how many how many subscriptions do you have?
- 26:40Speaker 1: Right?
- 26:40Speaker 5: If you had to guess, Riley, do you have a
- 26:42Speaker 5: number in your head? Again, just go give a quick
- 26:44Speaker 5: ballpark and if you want to, if you want to
- 26:46Speaker 5: play along with us, either in dollar amounts or in
- 26:49Speaker 5: the amount of services that you subscribe to text us
- 26:53Speaker 5: at nine seven nine, six, nine five, sixteen twenty. I
- 26:56Speaker 5: will even reward the biggest number we see, it was
- 26:59Speaker 5: something six.
- 27:00Speaker 6: That's including stuff on my iPhone as well. I'm not
- 27:03Speaker 6: are you talking.
- 27:03Speaker 5: About just everything ten?
- 27:07Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean between I mean you start with the starlink, right.
- 27:10Speaker 5: That's a subscription.
- 27:11Speaker 8: See, guys, I don't know that that counts.
- 27:13Speaker 5: I think that might be a utility, because again I
- 27:15Speaker 5: think they might count Internet as a utility as opposed to.
- 27:18Speaker 1: Okay, well, I would say i'd say, there's at least
- 27:21Speaker 1: five on the streaming services.
- 27:24Speaker 5: Okay.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Uh, every time I try to get rid of one,
- 27:27Speaker 1: they'll come up with something that I have to.
- 27:29Speaker 5: Watch exactly and then you got to get it again.
- 27:32Speaker 1: Yeah right, So uh, I've got that. I've got subscription
- 27:36Speaker 1: service for like my editing software in the studio. Uh,
- 27:41Speaker 1: subscription service now for for all the Microsoft stuff. You
- 27:44Speaker 1: got to have that. Yep, you do expensive, very expensive.
- 27:49Speaker 5: Totly cow all right, So I know there's a way
- 27:51Speaker 5: if you get your phone that you can. I'm just
- 27:53Speaker 5: going to see if this is a faster way of
- 27:55Speaker 5: doing it. Well, I know that you settings.
- 27:58Speaker 7: If you do apps that I'm subscribed, I'm over thirty.
- 28:01Speaker 8: That's what I'm talking about, Riley. Yeah, like you paid
- 28:04Speaker 8: for these apps.
- 28:05Speaker 3: You paid it.
- 28:05Speaker 1: I paid. I paid for a weather app, radar scope
- 28:08Speaker 1: that I use accounts. I pay for Life three sixty
- 28:13Speaker 1: backounts to track track the children and the and the wife.
- 28:17Speaker 1: I can't think of much else that I've got on.
- 28:19Speaker 7: The fuddy editing stuff for videos I take.
- 28:22Speaker 6: I've got certain apps that I like to play games.
- 28:26Speaker 3: Okay, okay, so like my HBO.
- 28:28Speaker 6: Subscriptions through it now like a lot of my TV
- 28:31Speaker 6: ones are through my Apple thing.
- 28:33Speaker 7: Everything's in one Listen.
- 28:35Speaker 5: I'm literally just going through my subscriptions on on my
- 28:38Speaker 5: just the Apple ones, the ones that go through my phone. Uh,
- 28:42Speaker 5: and I'm just going to like, okay, the Apple Apple one,
- 28:44Speaker 5: so all of my Apple News, my Apple Music, whatever
- 28:47Speaker 5: that's that Canva Okay, that's subscription. I have Canva, YEP,
- 28:51Speaker 5: added cap cut cap cut video. And if somebody's I
- 28:54Speaker 5: got two of these, I don't know why.
- 28:56Speaker 1: I don't even what is it rocket or whatever that's
- 28:58Speaker 1: supposed to go through and look at all the subscriptions
- 29:01Speaker 1: you have and give you the one touch.
- 29:03Speaker 5: I gotta do it.
- 29:04Speaker 1: I'm scott. I want to do it, but I'm scared
- 29:05Speaker 1: to death how many it's gonna tell me that I.
- 29:07Speaker 5: Have chat ept Finally for that peacock Adobe Anobe, which
- 29:13Speaker 5: is again like just a thing that used to edit
- 29:15Speaker 5: audio on if you work in radio, everyone's gonna have it.
- 29:19Speaker 5: And then let's go to the streaming services. There's there's
- 29:22Speaker 5: six of those. God, I don't even might I thirty?
- 29:26Speaker 5: Probably is it possible that I'm up to thirty?
- 29:28Speaker 1: We do have a texter that is texted in.
- 29:31Speaker 5: Okay, what do we got zero?
- 29:32Speaker 1: Oh?
- 29:33Speaker 8: Stop it with that?
- 29:34Speaker 1: Really not even is this Ted Kazinski. We don't have
- 29:39Speaker 1: a name of this.
- 29:41Speaker 8: Yeah, how do I'll take the phone subscriptions things like that?
- 29:45Speaker 5: Second, I'll put those in utilities. How do you not
- 29:48Speaker 5: have one thing that you subscribe to in this day
- 29:52Speaker 5: and age? That seems incredibly difficult to pull.
- 29:56Speaker 1: Off and delightful. I mean I wish I could, wish
- 30:00Speaker 1: I could be that isolated.
- 30:01Speaker 3: But all that.
- 30:02Speaker 5: Said, uh, it might be coming to an end because
- 30:05Speaker 5: Americans are finally getting into the point where purging, purging
- 30:11Speaker 5: our subscription it needs to happen. What's the last one
- 30:15Speaker 5: you canceled?
- 30:16Speaker 7: So?
- 30:17Speaker 6: I had HBO for a while and there was only
- 30:21Speaker 6: like a few shows I was watching.
- 30:22Speaker 5: On at it took off the HBO and then I.
- 30:25Speaker 6: Just went over to Hulu And a lot of them
- 30:26Speaker 6: have moved to Hulu because have you noticed. I don't
- 30:28Speaker 6: know if this is kind of a little off topic,
- 30:30Speaker 6: but like, for instance, One Tree Hill used to be
- 30:32Speaker 6: on Netflix, now it's on Hulu.
- 30:34Speaker 5: But then.
- 30:36Speaker 6: Yeah, it goes all over the problem like Amazon Prime
- 30:40Speaker 6: is the one subscription in Hulu? Because I like, who
- 30:42Speaker 6: has all this live sports? Those are the two that
- 30:44Speaker 6: I will have, no matter what everything else.
- 30:46Speaker 7: I could get rid of it.
- 30:47Speaker 1: I'm trying. Every year, I tell myself, I'm gonna get
- 30:50Speaker 1: rid of Hulu and go to something else. And every
- 30:53Speaker 1: year they come up with one thing, something like King
- 30:56Speaker 1: of the Hill, exactly what it was this year and
- 30:59Speaker 1: last year.
- 31:00Speaker 3: And then you got it, you got it.
- 31:01Speaker 5: It's it's it's exhausting.
- 31:03Speaker 4: I us.
- 31:03Speaker 7: You look for local stuff like I can watch local
- 31:05Speaker 7: news on it. I can watch local everything.
- 31:08Speaker 6: Why because sometimes I want to know what's going on.
- 31:11Speaker 1: Well, here we go YouTube TV.
- 31:13Speaker 3: That also counts a subscription that sucks. You know, way
- 31:16Speaker 3: you have Hulu Live and YouTube TV.
- 31:18Speaker 6: Why you only need one brother share it?
- 31:21Speaker 7: So he had so live.
- 31:24Speaker 6: There's a Hunter Flurky and a Riley Flerky, but we
- 31:27Speaker 6: use each other's counts all the times I have.
- 31:29Speaker 7: I've kept it for two reasons.
- 31:31Speaker 6: One, I like to watch some podcasts stuff Wow over,
- 31:36Speaker 6: like actually seeing talking and also like the Lindsay Clancy
- 31:39Speaker 6: trials and all that. All of the trials for that
- 31:42Speaker 6: are on YouTube text message.
- 31:44Speaker 5: I still subscribe to a few print subscriptions. You got
- 31:47Speaker 5: a renewal for one recently. Sorry, I'm not paying you
- 31:50Speaker 5: thirty nine ninety five or six Measley issues uh and
- 31:53Speaker 5: and yeah. Another person Ken and his wife. He says

- 32:41Speaker 14: I thought tough opponent. I thought, you know, they're very direct,
- 32:44Speaker 14: put things into our box. Caused us a lot of problems.
- 32:47Speaker 14: I think as a team, you know, we gotta grow,
- 32:50Speaker 14: you know, we there are quite a few things we
- 32:52Speaker 14: need to work on, and we had good moments today,
- 32:54Speaker 14: but I think, you know, as a.
- 32:56Speaker 13: Whole week, we've got quite a better work to do.
- 32:58Speaker 14: I feel as if any any game, and you know,
- 33:00Speaker 14: we're obviously desperate to win and need to show that
- 33:02Speaker 14: on the field, So you know, I think the approach
- 33:05Speaker 14: doesn't change regardless of which.
- 33:07Speaker 2: Game it is.
- 33:08Speaker 6: During the match, Trinity Buchanan accounted for both Aggie goals,
- 33:11Speaker 6: including the game winner on a penalty kick in the
- 33:14Speaker 6: eightieth minute.
- 33:15Speaker 7: It marked her.
- 33:16Speaker 6: Second career brace and her first in the maroon and white.
- 33:19Speaker 6: You can and met with the media following the match
- 33:22Speaker 6: to talk about her performance and scoring the game winning
- 33:24Speaker 6: penalty kick.
- 33:26Speaker 2: Felt good.
- 33:26Speaker 10: Definitely felt good to get the win.
- 33:28Speaker 6: Definitely couldn't have like do without everyone. So they set
- 33:31Speaker 6: me up for great opportunities and I was able to capitalize. So,
- 33:34Speaker 6: if I remember correctly, Riley was the one that won
- 33:36Speaker 6: in the box.
- 33:36Speaker 14: That was great.
- 33:37Speaker 12: She attacked the ball and got.
- 33:39Speaker 7: That opportunity for me.
- 33:40Speaker 6: Nerves a little bit, but I was excited to capitalize
- 33:42Speaker 6: and score that goal and celebrate with my teammates. Up next,
- 33:46Speaker 6: the Aggies continue on the road when they traveled to Waco,
- 33:49Speaker 6: Texas for Sunday Nights seven thirty contest against the Baylor Bears.
- 33:54Speaker 6: With Aggie Volleyball making its return to Read Arena this
- 33:56Speaker 6: week with its annual Marina White Scrimmage on the court.
- 34:00Speaker 6: Our Room team is who came out on top, rallying
- 34:02Speaker 6: a three to one win over the White team. Head
- 34:05Speaker 6: coach Jamie Morrison shared thoughts on the scrimmage.
- 34:08Speaker 10: So one match that I got to kind of sit back, observe,
- 34:11Speaker 10: let my coaches coach a little bit and really see
- 34:13Speaker 10: what's going on, and I think encourage. I think the
- 34:15Speaker 10: one thing is you put on a uniform. And I
- 34:17Speaker 10: just talked to the team about this and it's a
- 34:18Speaker 10: little different than practice, and I thought we started off
- 34:21Speaker 10: it kind of felt not robotic, but like a jerky
- 34:23Speaker 10: with the word that I use, and I think I
- 34:25Speaker 10: got smooth and I think we started competing by the
- 34:27Speaker 10: fourth set, when I just said, the next time we
- 34:29Speaker 10: put on that uniform, we need to start what we
- 34:30Speaker 10: left off and just keep going with.
- 34:31Speaker 3: That as time goes on.
- 34:33Speaker 6: Next up for the Ags is their exhibition match in Waco,
- 34:36Speaker 6: Texas against the twenty first ranked Baylor Bears. First service

- 35:00Speaker 6: talk about working with assistant coach and quarterback coach Joey Lynch.
- 35:04Speaker 3: Yeah, I've grown a lot.
- 35:05Speaker 15: He's been able to, you know, help my stuff mechanically
- 35:08Speaker 15: and you know, just help whether it's you know, a
- 35:12Speaker 15: deep out route or a short out route, just getting
- 35:15Speaker 15: my feet matched up with concepts and stuff like that.
- 35:17Speaker 15: We've we've had a lot of time in the film
- 35:19Speaker 15: together just watching stuff, going over protections and understanding what
- 35:23Speaker 15: different people are going to do and game planning for
- 35:25Speaker 15: other teams.
- 35:25Speaker 5: So it's been amazing.
- 35:27Speaker 15: Obviously he's a quarterback coach only, so I have a
- 35:31Speaker 15: lot more time with him. He still has to be
- 35:32Speaker 15: in you know, obvious staff meetings with the offense, but
- 35:35Speaker 15: he has a lot more time to just be with
- 35:37Speaker 15: me and you know, just watch over the film and
- 35:40Speaker 15: help me understand the game a little bit better.
