- 2:10Speaker 1: a bad weekend for social media influencers in College Station.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Local influencer Malik Salami, known as Salami the Aggie, went
- 2:18Speaker 1: online Saturday to say that he was harassed by Texas
- 2:21Speaker 1: A & M athletic staff on the sidelines of Saturday's game.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Salami recently posted that it was a dream to be
- 2:27Speaker 1: on the sidelines of an A & M football game.
- 2:29Speaker 1: The A & M senior was granted his wish when
- 2:31Speaker 1: he was gifted a field pass by an unknown contact
- 2:34Speaker 1: for the game. Salami says he was approached by the
- 2:37Speaker 1: assistant athletic director for football communications, Kat Kastner, questioning how
- 2:42Speaker 1: he gained access to the field. He says she told
- 2:45Speaker 1: him that she is in charge of approving credentials, which
- 2:48Speaker 1: is a fact, and that she specifically recalls denying requests
- 2:51Speaker 1: for him in the past. He was not asked to leave,
- 2:54Speaker 1: but Salami says he felt humiliated by the interaction. We
- 2:57Speaker 1: have reached out to Kastner for comment. Salami has 64,000
- 3:01Speaker 1: followers on Facebook, including the official Texas A & M
- 3:04Speaker 1: Facebook account. Also on the sidelines was an influencer from
- 3:08Speaker 1: Miami known as Ben Dadan, whose real name is Benjamin Beard.
- 3:12Speaker 1: TMZ posted a photo of Beard from Saturday's game with
- 3:15Speaker 1: the player's arm around him. Beard was arrested in Northgate
- 3:18Speaker 1: Saturday night after he reportedly failed to comply with a
- 3:21Speaker 1: lawful order. He was also tased during the arrest. He
- 3:25Speaker 1: was charged with resisting arrest and is free on.
- 3:27Speaker 2: $ 7, 000 bond.
- 3:30Speaker 1: More news on the way at 6.30 or anytime at WTAW.com.
- 3:34Speaker 1: I'm Will Welch, 1620-945-WTAW.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Just delicious. You come to town. You come to town
- 3:42Speaker 3: to do a little influencing. You get kicked out of
- 3:45Speaker 3: the locker room because you're trying to sneak into the
- 3:46Speaker 3: locker room.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not good. Not good.
- 3:48Speaker 3: I need to go back and review the video. I
- 3:50Speaker 3: think I could not tell if it was Elko that
- 3:52Speaker 3: was yelling at him. Because they're like, you with the camera.
- 3:54Speaker 3: And he's like, I don't even care.
- 3:56Speaker 4: I don't even care, bro.
- 3:57Speaker 1: I don't even care.
- 3:58Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
- 3:58Speaker 5: Yeah, I get it.
- 3:59Speaker 3: Someone paid you to show up because it's, like, good
- 4:02Speaker 3: for marketing and whatever, whatever. But, like, oh, Lord. Nothing
- 4:06Speaker 3: makes me happier than a streamer getting tased. Yeah. Like,
- 4:09Speaker 3: it's one of the few joys I have.
- 4:10Speaker 1: I would watch that. That would get a lot of views.
- 4:13Speaker 3: Oh, I got it. I've got it over here.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Oh, really? You got the video on that?
- 4:16Speaker 3: I can't play it on the radio for obvious reasons.
- 4:19Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 4:19Speaker 3: But it's made national. It's TMZ. A bunch of people
- 4:22Speaker 3: on Instagram. It's just Ben. Don or Ben. Don or.
- 4:26Speaker 1: Whatever he is. Whatever.
- 4:27Speaker 3: whatever handle you decided to use to, you know, to
- 4:31Speaker 3: bust out streams of doing literally nothing.
- 4:34Speaker 1: I get it. I mean, we, you know, if you're
- 4:36Speaker 1: looking at marketing towards young people, you want to kind
- 4:38Speaker 1: of include some of these. Yeah.
- 4:40Speaker 3: You got to get the people who the youth like
- 4:41Speaker 3: it's smart. It's it, but, but again, they, they always,
- 4:45Speaker 3: they're just, I'm sure radio DJs, if you rewound the
- 4:50Speaker 3: clock like 25, 30, 40 years, it was the exact
- 4:53Speaker 3: same thing. It's like, who are these obnoxious jerks on
- 4:56Speaker 3: the side? It had to be. It had to be.
- 4:58Speaker 3: They're just the version of that today. And now, yeah,
- 5:04Speaker 3: and here we are. We're going to have to talk
- 5:06Speaker 3: some more of this because there's so many. So many
- 5:09Speaker 3: fruitful stories.
- 5:10Speaker 1: So many.
- 5:11Speaker 3: It was just a wild. You know, I'm glad. We're
- 5:13Speaker 3: all glad the Ags got a win because otherwise we
- 5:16Speaker 3: just would have quit talking about football.
- 5:17Speaker 1: Yeah, it would have been. I mean, I was headed
- 5:20Speaker 1: that direction last week, and I'm not sure that my
- 5:23Speaker 1: thoughts on that are over.
- 5:24Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Just because we beat a very bad Arkansas team.
- 5:27Speaker 3: A dismally bad team. But, you know, hey, all good.
- 5:30Speaker 1: We didn't lose.
- 5:31Speaker 3: Yeah, didn't lose. All good. And for whatever reason, everyone
- 5:35Speaker 3: took that as an excuse to go, Absolutely insane.
- 5:38Speaker 1: It went a little nuts.
- 5:39Speaker 3: You know what? Get that stress out. What do I care?
- 5:42Speaker 3: But we do have a lot to talk about in
- 5:43Speaker 3: that regard. Also, homecoming weekend. You were texting me some
- 5:49Speaker 3: pictures over the weekend. You volunteered your home as the headquarters.
- 5:54Speaker 1: I didn't.
- 5:55Speaker 3: I mean, come on.
- 5:57Speaker 1: This is several years in a row that we've done this.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Several years in a row.
- 6:00Speaker 3: You're just the HQ for how many kids?
- 6:04Speaker 1: We're kind of set up for it. And there's other people.
- 6:07Speaker 1: like other parents through the party for girls and boys.
- 6:12Speaker 1: And then other parents hosted the girls at their house
- 6:15Speaker 1: for the sleepover and the boys at another house. So
- 6:17Speaker 1: there's lots of people that are taking part in this
- 6:20Speaker 1: kind of group effort.
- 6:21Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 6:22Speaker 1: I would say that there were probably 15 girls getting
- 6:26Speaker 1: ready at the house.
- 6:27Speaker 3: You had 15 teenagers.
- 6:28Speaker 1: Starting at about 11 a.m.
- 6:29Speaker 3: You had 15 teenagers occupying your house to get ready
- 6:33Speaker 3: for a homecoming dance.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Yeah, it was chaos, mass chaos. That's insane. So I
- 6:38Speaker 1: absconded down to the B and B where some friends
- 6:40Speaker 1: were staying and going to the Arkansas game.
- 6:43Speaker 3: You got to get out of there.
- 6:44Speaker 1: I took them over. We went to the chicken. We
- 6:47Speaker 1: had some lunch and I left them there and went
- 6:49Speaker 1: back to the house probably about one 32 o'clock.
- 6:52Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 6:53Speaker 1: And I got there and, and things were, things were crazy.
- 6:57Speaker 3: But what's the purpose of everyone? Because we asked 15 girls.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Well, we had the brunch. Okay, there was a lead-in?
- 7:06Speaker 1: We served the brunch, and then the girls all got ready.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Holy cow. And mirrors set up everywhere, and they were
- 7:11Speaker 1: all getting in their dresses.
- 7:13Speaker 3: Do you have stylists that come over for this?
- 7:15Speaker 1: No, but don't suggest it.
- 7:18Speaker 3: I'm shocked that y'all don't.
- 7:19Speaker 1: Essentially, they function as their own stylists. They work on
- 7:23Speaker 1: each other. We had one major crisis where a zipper
- 7:27Speaker 1: went wrong and attempts were made to sew a poor
- 7:31Speaker 1: girl into her dress. Safety pins were eventually the thing
- 7:36Speaker 1: that got her there. It was nuts. And when they left,
- 7:40Speaker 1: I thought, okay, I can settle in watch a little TV.
- 7:44Speaker 1: And then between the political commercials and that dang old
- 7:48Speaker 1: Nick Saban commercial.
- 7:50Speaker 3: I'm going to play this in case you guys, I mean,
- 7:52Speaker 3: we've all heard it.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 7:54Speaker 3: It's up there for the, one of the more annoying
- 7:56Speaker 3: commercials that's out there here. This is a, this is,
- 7:58Speaker 3: I believe.
- 7:59Speaker 1: Nick Saban knows how to stay ahead of the clock.
- 8:03Speaker 8: That's why he uses express delivery from the home Depot.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Yep.
- 8:08Speaker 8: That's the one still building shelves this afternoon.
- 8:11Speaker 4: Yep.
- 8:12Speaker 3: Very Hank Hill, Nick Saban.
- 8:14Speaker 1: Very Hank Hill.
- 8:14Speaker 3: Mention that.
- 8:19Speaker 4: Yep.
- 8:19Speaker 7: That was a little too fast.
- 8:21Speaker 3: And then he goes and picks up his drill.
- 8:22Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 8:23Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:23Speaker 1: Okay. Because he's making a sandwich. As soon as I
- 8:25Speaker 1: see him start making the sandwich in the commercial. How
- 8:28Speaker 1: do you deal with it?
- 8:29Speaker 3: That's what I was going to ask you.
- 8:30Speaker 1: I yell for somebody to grab the dog.
- 8:32Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 8:33Speaker 1: Because although that doorbell sounds nothing like our doorbell. And
- 8:38Speaker 1: our dog has never been exposed to other doorbells. She
- 8:43Speaker 1: recognizes that as an opportunity to go crazy.
- 8:46Speaker 3: I personally, I really wish they wouldn't put doorbells in
- 8:49Speaker 3: commercials in general. It's like putting a siren in a commercial,
- 8:54Speaker 3: especially a radio one.
- 8:55Speaker 1: You kind of look.
- 8:56Speaker 3: Around or a train horn or something like that. There's
- 9:00Speaker 3: certain noises I think need to be off limits. Doorbell
- 9:04Speaker 3: is one for the exact reason you mentioned. It's not
- 9:06Speaker 3: just your dog. If you have a dog that is
- 9:08Speaker 3: triggered by doorbells, it doesn't matter. And these are high volume.
- 9:13Speaker 3: It's every commercial break for every game.
- 9:16Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 9:16Speaker 3: That is the commercial that plays.
- 9:18Speaker 1: On top of the fact that the dog was incredibly
- 9:21Speaker 1: overstimulated by the 15 young women running around the house.
- 9:25Speaker 3: That dog has PTSD.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Completely. At this point. Yeah, but I'm really upset with
- 9:31Speaker 1: the Nick Saban commercial.
- 9:32Speaker 3: It's like people talk about 4th of July being bad
- 9:34Speaker 3: for dogs. Saturdays are bad for dogs.
- 9:37Speaker 1: Saturdays can be too.
- 9:37Speaker 3: Homecoming Saturday is horrible.
- 9:39Speaker 9: Absolutely.
- 9:39Speaker 1: She's going to need a spa day. She does. Maybe
- 9:42Speaker 1: some medication.
- 9:44Speaker 3: That's the ticket right there. Find a way to drug
- 9:49Speaker 3: your dog so.
- 9:49Speaker 1: You can make it through the weekend. A little Benadryl maybe?
- 9:53Speaker 3: No, Benadryl bad. They don't tolerate Benadryl.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Really?
- 9:56Speaker 3: Go to your vet, people. They're a trashy school.
- 10:00Speaker 4: Spazzies.

- 14:25Speaker 3: and they don't really explain why. It's not like they were...
- 14:29Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure there's a festival somewhere, and it
- 14:31Speaker 3: just ended up... Yeah, certain parts of the country.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Yeah, they're on menus some places. And honestly, I would
- 14:37Speaker 1: encourage you to try them if you have not. I
- 14:40Speaker 1: enjoy them. I've had good ones and bad ones, but
- 14:43Speaker 1: the good ones are really good.
- 14:45Speaker 3: Apple Betty Day. An apple brown Betty is an old
- 14:47Speaker 3: school American baked dessert made from apples layered with sweetened
- 14:51Speaker 3: crumbs and spices, unlike apple crisp. which is an oat
- 14:54Speaker 3: flour topping. A traditional Brown Betty is associated with the breadcrumbs.
- 14:58Speaker 1: You know who makes the Brown Petty? Peggy. Peggy Hill.
- 15:01Speaker 3: Peggy Hill, the ultimate Brown Betty. Everyone knows. Very, very
- 15:04Speaker 3: in demand. Big deal. Global James Bond Day.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Who's your favorite Bond?
- 15:09Speaker 3: Favorite? I mean, Connery is, you have to list Connery,
- 15:14Speaker 3: but then Connery didn't do that many of them. And
- 15:17Speaker 3: he was also the first one. So you kind of,
- 15:19Speaker 3: got to wait that. So if we're getting rid of.
- 15:21Speaker 1: Was he the first one or was Lazenby before him?
- 15:24Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, you're correct. It's just he's the first famous one. Yeah,
- 15:27Speaker 3: I think he's the first really good one. Yeah, anyway,
- 15:30Speaker 3: October 5th, Dr. No in 1962, which is how he
- 15:33Speaker 3: got it starring Sean Connery. So if we get rid of...
- 15:36Speaker 3: If we get rid of Sean Connery, then we're down
- 15:41Speaker 3: to Roger Moore. We're down to... Who was the other
- 15:45Speaker 3: one in between?
- 15:45Speaker 1: Timothy Dalton.
- 15:47Speaker 3: Timothy Dalton's an under... He also has.
- 15:50Speaker 1: No, was it Dalton? Yeah, it was Dalton.
- 15:51Speaker 3: It was Timothy Dalton and then Pierce Brosnan, who.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Are basically the same guy.
- 15:57Speaker 3: I think it's actually Daniel Craig.
- 15:59Speaker 1: I think so, too.
- 16:00Speaker 3: Daniel Craig, minus Sean Connery, with that run that he
- 16:05Speaker 3: had of those four films... I would get rid of
- 16:07Speaker 3: the last one. That was kind of trash.
- 16:08Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 16:08Speaker 3: Those three first Bonds he did, I would argue, are A,
- 16:13Speaker 3: three of the best Bond movies that have ever been released,
- 16:16Speaker 3: and B... the best portrayal of James Bond.
- 16:19Speaker 1: Like, it just, it worked.
- 16:20Speaker 19: It worked.
- 16:21Speaker 3: There was an extra depth to it. It made sense.
- 16:25Speaker 3: In modern times, it made sense, which is hard to
- 16:27Speaker 3: do for a British spy movie because, come on, like,
- 16:29Speaker 3: that's a little bit, no one's running around in a
- 16:32Speaker 3: tux as a spy anymore. It was like a 60s thing. Like, now,
- 16:35Speaker 3: but he had that darkness. about him that I appreciate.
- 16:39Speaker 1: Yeah, I was kind of in the transition between Connery
- 16:42Speaker 1: and Roger Moore. And I liked Roger Moore when I
- 16:45Speaker 1: was a kid. It was all right.
- 16:46Speaker 3: It wasn't bad.
- 16:47Speaker 1: He had some great.
- 16:48Speaker 3: Some of his movies are the most famous Bond movies.
- 16:51Speaker 1: I think so. But it just... It doesn't carry the weight,
- 16:54Speaker 1: the gravitas that Connery or that Daniel Craig did.
- 16:58Speaker 3: Now, the question is, who's the new... Did they ever
- 17:01Speaker 3: announce the new Bond yet? Or are we still just waiting?
- 17:05Speaker 3: Because I know it's going to be a kid... We
- 17:08Speaker 3: know that. Someone said it's probably going to be Jacob Elordi.
- 17:10Speaker 3: I remember seeing that, and that's just... okay they're gonna
- 17:14Speaker 3: they're gonna figure out a way to mess it up
- 17:15Speaker 3: yeah they'll i but but you know i will i
- 17:18Speaker 3: will i will withhold.
- 17:19Speaker 1: Judgment jack loden aaron taylor johnson paul mescal okay callum
- 17:24Speaker 1: turner and the aforementioned uh jacob elordi that's way.

- 18:53Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the earliest horror movies I can remember.
- 18:55Speaker 4: Was it?
- 18:56Speaker 1: Was watching Hellraiser.
- 18:57Speaker 3: Is that why you don't like watching scary movies?
- 18:59Speaker 1: Look, that one.
- 18:59Speaker 3: Because Hellraiser is pretty much right at the end of,
- 19:03Speaker 3: of even for me, like, what am I doing?
- 19:05Speaker 1: I was probably like 13, maybe when I saw.
- 19:09Speaker 3: It, I remember the first time I saw it, I
- 19:10Speaker 3: was genuinely, I was genuinely upset by the movie.
- 19:14Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 19:14Speaker 3: Like just upset.
- 19:16Speaker 1: So yeah, that probably scarred me for life.

- 27:17Speaker 1: Good morning from the WTAW newsroom. I'm Will Welch. A
- 27:22Speaker 1: man is in critical condition after being hit by a
- 27:24Speaker 1: drunk driver while on a scooter. 21-year-old Truman Davis was
- 27:28Speaker 1: arrested and charged with intoxication assault after colliding with the
- 27:31Speaker 1: man as he rode on Welburn near Kyle Field just
- 27:34Speaker 1: before 3 o'clock Saturday morning. College Station Police responded to
- 27:38Speaker 1: reports of a major accident at the location. The victim
- 27:41Speaker 1: was found bleeding from his head and throwing up blood.
- 27:43Speaker 1: He is said to have suffered a skull fracture and
- 27:46Speaker 1: brain bleed, among other injuries. While being interviewed, Davis was
- 27:49Speaker 1: reportedly swaying and had slurred speech. He admitted to having
- 27:53Speaker 1: three beers and failed a field sobriety test. Arrest records
- 27:56Speaker 1: say the VO scooter was well lit, and traffic camera
- 27:59Speaker 1: footage shows that other vehicles passed the scooter without incident.
- 28:02Speaker 1: Officers believe Davis failed to see the scooter because of
- 28:05Speaker 1: his impaired state. Davis was charged with intoxication assault with
- 28:09Speaker 1: a vehicle. Blood alcohol analysis results are pending. He is
- 28:13Speaker 1: free on $ 30, 000 bond. Bryan police are asking for your
- 28:17Speaker 1: help in locating a missing Bryan teenager. 14-year-old Aria Serenity
- 28:21Speaker 1: Cates was last seen at her home in the 1500
- 28:24Speaker 1: block of Baker Avenue shortly after midnight Friday morning. They
- 28:27Speaker 1: believe Aria is in danger and could be with an
- 28:29Speaker 1: unrelated adult exposing her to harm. Visit WTAW.com or our
- 28:34Speaker 1: Facebook to see her photo. If you see Aria or
- 28:37Speaker 1: have any information regarding her location, please contact the Bryan
- 28:41Speaker 1: Police Department or call 911. A first grader at Navasota's
- 28:45Speaker 1: John Webb Elementary School is in trouble for taking a
- 28:48Speaker 1: knife to school on Thursday and threatening another student. In
- 28:51Speaker 1: a letter to parents, Superintendent Stu Musick described the weapon
- 28:55Speaker 1: as a mini keychain knife and that the threat was
- 28:57Speaker 1: made inside the classroom. Musick says the appropriate procedures were
- 29:01Speaker 1: followed and they continue to address the incident in accordance
- 29:04Speaker 1: with district and campus disciplinary policies. We asked what type
- 29:08Speaker 1: of discipline the child would face, but the district said
- 29:11Speaker 1: that due to FERPA laws, they were unable to disclose
- 29:14Speaker 1: that information. He reminds parents to talk with their children
- 29:18Speaker 1: about the seriousness of taking weapons to school and making threats,
- 29:21Speaker 1: and if they hear about or see a threat, to
- 29:24Speaker 1: immediately tell a trusted adult. A kindergarten student in Gause
- 29:28Speaker 1: ISD was found with a gun at school on Friday.
- 29:31Speaker 1: Officials say a parent contacted the school just before 8 a.m.
- 29:35Speaker 1: to say that a weapon might be in a certain
- 29:36Speaker 1: child's backpack. School officials secured the handgun and the Milam
- 29:40Speaker 1: County Sheriff's Department was notified. Today is your last day
- 29:44Speaker 1: to register to vote for the November 3rd election. There
- 29:47Speaker 1: are voter registration parties being held today. You can register
- 29:51Speaker 1: to vote at St. Francis Episcopal Church and College Station
- 29:54Speaker 1: from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. And from 7 a.m.
- 29:57Speaker 1: to midnight, you can register at Rudder Plaza and Sunbeam Bagels,
- 30:01Speaker 1: the Owl Cafe. It appears as though data centers are
- 30:05Speaker 1: trying to buy a little bit of goodwill.
- 30:07Speaker 19: Data centers are about as popular as root canals and
- 30:10Speaker 19: tax audits these days, but big data is doing something
- 30:12Speaker 19: about it. Collectively, they're investing or donating hundreds of millions
- 30:16Speaker 19: of dollars for various community needs across the state, especially
- 30:19Speaker 19: in places that don't want them. $ 343 million, in fact,
- 30:23Speaker 19: have gone towards school programs, emergency services, infrastructure fixes, a
- 30:27Speaker 19: new water tower, upgrades to a museum, and even a
- 30:30Speaker 19: new hospital. Whether this beneficial spending will soften people's attitudes
- 30:34Speaker 19: towards data centers remains to be seen.
- 30:37Speaker 1: Eric Lankham, TSN News. It's still a close Senate race
- 30:40Speaker 1: here in Texas with James Tallarico maintaining a slight lead
- 30:43Speaker 1: in the polls. Fox's Bill Malungan has more.
- 30:47Speaker 4: Democrats have had their eyes set on Texas for decades now.
- 30:50Speaker 4: They haven't held a Senate seat there since back in 1993.
- 30:54Speaker 4: And brand new Fox News polling shows that streak of
- 30:57Speaker 4: domination for Republicans continues. Maybe at risk this year. Our
- 31:00Speaker 4: Fox News polling of likely Texas voters has Democrat James
- 31:03Speaker 4: Tallarico up two points over Republican Ken Paxton. This race
- 31:07Speaker 4: is a genuine toss-up right now, but here's what's really
- 31:10Speaker 4: concerning for Paxton. Texas voters giving Tallarico a 12-point lead
- 31:15Speaker 4: over Paxton when it comes to favorability. That is obviously
- 31:19Speaker 4: way outside of the margin of error, and that's despite
- 31:22Speaker 4: the fact that Tallarico has said a handful of things
- 31:24Speaker 4: that you would think really would never fly in Texas.
- 31:27Speaker 1: Tallarico has spent his 2026 Senate campaign describing how his
- 31:31Speaker 1: faith informs his political views in a bid to appeal
- 31:34Speaker 1: to a larger group of Texans. The state's power grid
- 31:38Speaker 1: survived the summer, but many are still worried that we
- 31:40Speaker 1: could see another winter storm Yuri. Some want the Railroad Commission,
- 31:44Speaker 1: which is in charge of oil and gas operations, to
- 31:46Speaker 1: do more than calm the fears.
- 31:48Speaker 6: They've just not been as open as to what they've done.
- 31:53Speaker 1: Professor Joshua Rhodes at UT Austin said, says we're in
- 31:56Speaker 1: a far better place now compared to 2021, and much
- 32:00Speaker 1: of that is due to advances in battery storage technology.
- 32:03Speaker 1: They charge during the day and provide a bump in
- 32:05Speaker 1: the evening when demand starts peaking. To celebrate the spirit
- 32:09Speaker 1: of 150-week, A & M is celebrating with a campus-wide
- 32:12Speaker 1: birthday treat today from 11 until 2. Students, faculty, and
- 32:16Speaker 1: staff can enjoy complimentary ice cream cookie sandwiches and birthday
- 32:20Speaker 1: cake at 12 locations across campus, including the MSC, the
- 32:24Speaker 1: Administration Building, the Bush School, and the Mays Business School.
- 32:29Speaker 1: More news on the way at 7 o'clock or anytime

- 34:20Speaker 3: know Shiner had bourbon.
- 34:22Speaker 1: Yeah, they put out a vodka and they're calling it
- 34:25Speaker 1: a bourbon. And as much as I love the Spetzel
- 34:28Speaker 1: Brewery and the Shiner Company, I'm sorry. If you tag
- 34:31Speaker 1: your whiskey in Texas with the name bourbon, I'm likely
- 34:35Speaker 1: to write you off.

- 35:00Speaker 1: I do want to caution everybody that do not fall
- 35:05Speaker 1: for the fact that this is fall, right? This is
- 35:08Speaker 1: false fall that we're going to get this week, and
- 35:11Speaker 1: we still have to go through second spring, spring two
- 35:15Speaker 1: electric boogaloo, and then we'll break back into summer for
- 35:19Speaker 1: a period of days, and then next fall will happen.
- 35:23Speaker 1: That's the way things go.
- 35:25Speaker 3: We end Christmas by the time this actually comes to pass.
- 35:28Speaker 1: If we're lucky.
- 35:29Speaker 3: If we're lucky. But today, you know. Yeah, enjoy it.
- 35:32Speaker 3: Fairly wonderful. Now, going back to what we were discussing,
- 35:37Speaker 3: which is the straight up chaos related to the Arkansas game.
- 35:41Speaker 3: I don't know what the, because again, we've had a
- 35:44Speaker 3: bunch of influencer stories. You had Old boy who was
- 35:47Speaker 3: from Miami, I forget, was it Ben DeDon?
- 35:50Speaker 1: Yeah, something like that.
- 35:51Speaker 3: So he's a streamer. Your kids probably know him or whatever.
- 35:54Speaker 3: And that's the idea is you want to invite some
- 35:56Speaker 3: of these guys to the sidelines because the kids think
- 36:00Speaker 3: it's cool. Thusly, it helps with recruiting and things like that.
- 36:05Speaker 3: He decided to get tased on Northgate for reasons unknown.
- 36:10Speaker 3: I mean, being a streamer is really, as I said
- 36:13Speaker 3: earlier this morning, reason enough just.
- 36:14Speaker 1: To tase you on the site. Yeah, I would think so.
- 36:16Speaker 3: In my opinion. That might hold up in court.
- 36:18Speaker 1: We'll see.
- 36:19Speaker 3: The one that surprised me was the salami, which we featured.
- 36:23Speaker 3: Salami the Aggie. Yeah, we've talked about him. Slightly delusional, maybe,
- 36:26Speaker 3: but kind-hearted.
- 36:27Speaker 1: Yeah, harmless.
- 36:29Speaker 3: He's all over the place. He says he was disrespected.
- 36:33Speaker 22: I got harassed at the Texas A & M football
- 36:35Speaker 22: game versus Arkansas by someone on the Texas A &
- 36:37Speaker 22: M football athletic staff. I didn't appreciate how I was targeted,
- 36:41Speaker 22: I didn't appreciate how I was treated, and I didn't
- 36:43Speaker 22: appreciate how demeaning it was for me on the field
- 36:46Speaker 22: at this moment. I got invited to be on the
- 36:48Speaker 22: field for the Arkansas game as y'all saw in my
- 36:50Speaker 22: previous videos. Someone that watched my videos and has connections
- 36:54Speaker 22: with the Aggie Network blessed me and my cameraman with
- 36:57Speaker 22: a field pass to go on the field for this game.
- 36:59Speaker 22: From the first half, we got on the field immediately,
- 37:02Speaker 22: showed love by everybody. The 12th man, people on the field,
- 37:06Speaker 22: the players, literally just everybody was showing love. They were
- 37:09Speaker 22: like salami, salami, oh my goodness. The parents, the supporters,
- 37:13Speaker 22: everybody was showing love. I really enjoyed my time in
- 37:16Speaker 22: the first half. Everything was peaceful. And then second half
- 37:19Speaker 22: is where it began. So he goes on to say
- 37:21Speaker 22: that this was the person who is in.
- 37:22Speaker 16: Charge of.
- 37:42Speaker 3: All of the passes like hey what are you doing
- 37:45Speaker 3: i told you you're not getting a pass because apparently
- 37:47Speaker 3: he's been trying to get a pass for a while
- 37:49Speaker 3: i haven't done it so they get in a little
- 37:51Speaker 3: uh the little back and forth she wants to know
- 37:54Speaker 3: where he got it from he's like oh someone gave
- 37:56Speaker 3: me this thing she's like well i'm gonna figure out
- 37:57Speaker 3: who gave it to you blah blah blah now it's
- 37:59Speaker 3: like uh you know a million shares or whatever it's
- 38:02Speaker 3: been people are very very upset I don't know what's
- 38:05Speaker 3: going on with the site. Like I asked a few
- 38:07Speaker 3: friends who I know work in the athletic department and
- 38:10Speaker 3: they're like, well, yeah, it's kind of crazy. You have
- 38:12Speaker 3: to have an ID and you have to sign in
- 38:14Speaker 3: and all this other stuff, which sounds on its surface. Like, again,
- 38:17Speaker 3: I get it. I also get there a lot of
- 38:19Speaker 3: people that want to go onto the field for an
- 38:21Speaker 3: A & M football game. But I will tell you this.
- 38:24Speaker 3: I've just come back from experience where I was dealing
- 38:26Speaker 3: with the Houston Texans.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Okay.
- 38:29Speaker 3: The Texans are not that hard to get on the
- 38:32Speaker 3: sideline for. There's not. Like you get a pass from someone,
- 38:36Speaker 3: you walk down, you look around, you'll walk back up
- 38:40Speaker 3: the ramp and you go back to your seats and
- 38:42Speaker 3: that's it. Like if there's like eight different check-ins and
- 38:45Speaker 3: I did this, this, that, I mean, that's a little,
- 38:47Speaker 3: that's a little aggressive, isn't it? For two and two, sorry,
- 38:52Speaker 3: three and two, but it is what it is.
- 38:55Speaker 1: I kind of can understand because of, Taking this incident,
- 39:00Speaker 1: looking at this game.
- 39:01Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 39:02Speaker 1: So you had the incident. Was it pregame with the
- 39:05Speaker 1: bendy-da-da-da thing?
- 39:05Speaker 3: I would assume that bendy-do-do-do was probably an all-day pain
- 39:12Speaker 3: in the butt.
- 39:13Speaker 1: Right. That's just my guess. When was he kicked out
- 39:15Speaker 1: of the locker room, though?
- 39:16Speaker 3: At the end of the celebration is when he was
- 39:19Speaker 3: trying to get into the locker room.
- 39:21Speaker 1: So the end of the game.
- 39:22Speaker 3: But the second half, uh, Ben to deedle do would
- 39:26Speaker 3: have been a real problem. Probably on the sidelines, which
- 39:30Speaker 3: is going to be an aggravating stressor to the person
- 39:35Speaker 3: who is in charge of of giving out the passes
- 39:39Speaker 3: and then babysitting those people.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Yeah, not saying that it was handled correctly because in
- 39:44Speaker 1: today's day and age, you have to understand the immediacy
- 39:48Speaker 1: of that medium. These influencers, the minute something goes sideways,
- 39:52Speaker 1: they can go online and reach out to their tens
- 39:54Speaker 1: of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands or millions.
- 39:57Speaker 3: And then they just make your life a living hell.
- 39:59Speaker 12: Right.
- 40:00Speaker 1: So there's better ways to handle that, right? If he
- 40:02Speaker 1: wasn't an immediate issue, if he wasn't causing problems, Handle
- 40:06Speaker 1: it post-game.
- 40:07Speaker 3: Exactly. Or don't handle it at all. Hey, he got
- 40:10Speaker 3: past you.
- 40:10Speaker 1: Hey, okay.
- 40:11Speaker 4: All right.
- 40:12Speaker 1: You did the thing, man.
- 40:13Speaker 3: You got me.
- 40:15Speaker 1: Congratulations.
- 40:15Speaker 3: Enjoy the game. Not sure, but I can understand, again,
- 40:20Speaker 3: having been on a few sidelines in my time, the
- 40:23Speaker 3: most obnoxious people in the stadium, those are the ones
- 40:27Speaker 3: that get to the sideline. It's just, it's a weird
- 40:30Speaker 3: mix of people. They're all weirdly entitled. And it's got
- 40:35Speaker 3: to be like babysitting the worst kindergarten class you've ever
- 40:38Speaker 3: had access to. With that said, I'd like to show
- 40:41Speaker 3: some understanding to everyone involved in the situation because, good Lord,
- 40:47Speaker 3: what a mess.
- 40:49Speaker 1: Being on the sideline, I've been on the sideline for games.
- 40:52Speaker 3: Overrated.
- 40:52Speaker 1: Very overrated. Very overrated. It's kind of like the backstage
- 40:55Speaker 1: pass at the concert.
- 40:56Speaker 3: Oh, God. You guys, I get it.
- 40:59Speaker 1: I do understand.
- 41:01Speaker 3: That when you talk about backs everyone's oh it's so
- 41:04Speaker 3: backstage and it's cool it's a life you get to
- 41:06Speaker 3: do it once that's fine it's nothing interesting happening back
- 41:10Speaker 3: there it's some it's some bad catering uh some just
- 41:14Speaker 3: people standing around for no reason and a bad.
- 41:17Speaker 1: View of the actual concert exactly that's.
- 41:19Speaker 3: What it is similar to football if you go down
- 41:21Speaker 3: there and you're not six foot four you ain't seeing
- 41:24Speaker 3: anything if you're going to be down there during the
- 41:26Speaker 3: game just not gonna be blocked off not gonna have
- 41:29Speaker 3: any Just go to your seats and watch the game.
- 41:31Speaker 8: Enjoy it.
- 41:31Speaker 3: It's not going to be a bad thing. That doesn't
- 41:33Speaker 3: even get into the arrests.
- 41:35Speaker 4: No.
- 41:35Speaker 3: So let's talk about some tweets from the Texas A
- 41:40Speaker 3: & M police quitter feed.
- 41:42Speaker 1: Boy, there were some babies.
- 41:44Speaker 3: There were some doozies, man.
- 41:46Speaker 4: Yeah.

- 42:01Speaker 1: false name and date of birth to officer, arrested for
- 42:04Speaker 1: failure to identify and citation.
- 42:07Speaker 3: This is one of the winning the lottery tweets right here.
- 42:10Speaker 3: MIP Aggie Park saw officer tried to hide his beer.
- 42:13Speaker 3: Officer's ticket book was too damaged from rain. Verbal warning issued.

- 44:31Speaker 5: takes is a little planning beforehand. Spring color starts now.
- 44:35Speaker 5: I'll be back with details right after this message.
- 44:38Speaker 9: My book is Neal Sperry's Lone Star Gardening. I believe
- 44:42Speaker 9: it's the best work of my career. I self-published it.
- 44:44Speaker 9: It's directly from me to your mailbox. There's no publishing house,
- 44:48Speaker 9: no retail markups to run up your cost. As I

- 45:22Speaker 9: all the plants that you're growing. That's just $ 24. 95. A

- 45:36Speaker 9: Let's start with your choices in spring color plants. There
- 45:39Speaker 9: are three basic categories. You have annuals, perennials, and you
- 45:43Speaker 9: have bulbs. Each brings its own special merits and charm
- 45:46Speaker 9: to the garden, and each deserves space in your plantings.
- 45:50Speaker 9: Most will do best in full or nearly full sunlight,
- 45:52Speaker 9: and all need good drainage.
- 45:54Speaker 5: You'll want to prepare the soil carefully before you start planting.
- 45:57Speaker 5: Mix in several inches of organic matter. whether you're dealing
- 46:00Speaker 5: with a clay or a sandy soil, and rototill to
- 46:03Speaker 5: a depth of 8 to 12 inches. Concentrate your color plantings,
- 46:08Speaker 5: as you should also do during the summer, in spots
- 46:10Speaker 5: where you want special attention. That means that you'll want
- 46:13Speaker 5: a planting near the front door or around the patio.
- 46:16Speaker 5: Use them where people will see them. Mask colors for
- 46:20Speaker 5: the best effect. Rather than planting a big bed of
- 46:23Speaker 5: pansies in a mixture of colors, Use all of one color,
- 46:27Speaker 5: or mix two contrasting colors uniformly throughout the bed. You'll
- 46:31Speaker 5: get more show and much less space. Remember also that
- 46:34Speaker 5: brighter colors seem to come forward visually, so they'll draw
- 46:37Speaker 5: the eye from much greater distances. Darker or pastel colors
- 46:41Speaker 5: seem to make a landscape larger since they don't pop
- 46:44Speaker 5: out visually. You want to plan for a full season
- 46:47Speaker 5: of color. While some bulbs may only bloom for a
- 46:49Speaker 5: couple of weeks, annual flowers will bloom for months. Know
- 46:53Speaker 5: your plant's probable blooming time before you plant, and then
- 46:56Speaker 5: try to develop a sequence of flowering for your various beds.
- 47:00Speaker 5: Hopefully you'll always have something in flower. Try some of
- 47:03Speaker 5: your color in large pots. Not only will it give
- 47:06Speaker 5: it special emphasis to the plantings, but it also will
- 47:09Speaker 5: allow you to have color in places where maybe you
- 47:11Speaker 5: couldn't have done so otherwise, such as within entryways, on
- 47:15Speaker 5: decks and balconies, and in window box gardens. You'll also
- 47:18Speaker 5: be able to move the pots into the garage during
- 47:20Speaker 5: periods of unusually cold weather. Annuals that you might want
- 47:24Speaker 5: to plant now include snapdragons and pinks. That's dianthus, Iceland
- 47:28Speaker 5: and California poppies, flowering cabbage and ornamental kale and primroses.
- 47:32Speaker 5: The best all-around color for cooler parts of Texas would
- 47:36Speaker 5: be pansies, hands down. That would be violas as well.
- 47:40Speaker 5: Concentrate on the smaller flowering types for the best landscaping
- 47:43Speaker 5: show and throw in a bed or border of violas
- 47:46Speaker 5: just to top it all off. If it's spring flowering
- 47:49Speaker 5: perennials you want, candy tuft, violets, oxalis, ajuga, shasta, daisies, iris,
- 47:54Speaker 5: the various evening primroses, galardias, coreopsis, daylilies, and purple coneflowers.
- 48:00Speaker 5: That's our program for today. I'm Neal Sperry. Fall is
- 48:03Speaker 5: the time to compost. In our next program, until then,
- 48:06Speaker 5: happy gardening.
- 48:07Speaker 11: It's no secret that our aging electrical grid is overwhelmed
- 48:10Speaker 11: and faltering while we become more dependent on it. With
- 48:13Speaker 11: severe weather, record outages, and more of us working from home,
- 48:16Speaker 11: demand for backup generators is outstripping supply nationwide. But you
- 48:20Speaker 11: don't have to wait months for a solution. Generator Supercenter,

- 48:38Speaker 16: She was 14 years old for sale in a motel
- 48:44Speaker 16: off I-35. Traffic through Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio. Now
- 48:50Speaker 16: her traffickers are in prison because Ken Paxton put them there.
- 48:54Speaker 16: 40 years for the trafficker. 20 years for the woman
- 48:58Speaker 16: who posted the ads online. The human trafficking and organized
- 49:02Speaker 16: crime unit that locked them up? Ken Paxton built it.

- 49:51Speaker 28: Good morning, I'm Riley Flurkey with your morning sports update
- 49:55Speaker 28: on 1620-945-WTAW. The A & M football team secured its
- 50:00Speaker 28: first conference win of the season and its 800th win
- 50:04Speaker 28: in program history, downing Arkansas 34-7. The Aggies capitalized on
- 50:09Speaker 28: safety Dalton Brooks' interception in the opening drive with a
- 50:12Speaker 28: two-yard rushing score from freshman running back Carson Baker to
- 50:15Speaker 28: tally the first points of the contest. Head coach Mike
- 50:19Speaker 28: Elko spoke about how the team bounced back into the
- 50:21Speaker 28: win column this week.
- 50:23Speaker 8: Proud of the response. Challenged the guys to come out
- 50:25Speaker 8: and play physical and control the line of scrimmage and
- 50:29Speaker 8: I thought we were able to do that. I thought
- 50:30Speaker 8: we were able to establish the run offensively and When
- 50:34Speaker 8: the game was still in doubt defensively, I thought we
- 50:36Speaker 8: were able to take the run away. I think it
- 50:37Speaker 8: got a little bit looser in the second half as
- 50:39Speaker 8: we got a little bit looser in coverage. Did a
- 50:41Speaker 8: really nice job on special teams, trying to control the
- 50:43Speaker 8: game that way. And then obviously won the turnover battle,
- 50:45Speaker 8: won nothing. Thought we did a good job protecting the football.
- 50:48Speaker 8: And so it was good to bounce back. It was
- 50:50Speaker 8: good to get back in the win column and push
- 50:52Speaker 8: this thing back in a positive direction. And now we've
- 50:54Speaker 8: got to go have a great week of prep and
- 50:56Speaker 8: a great week of practice and then go back on
- 50:58Speaker 8: the road and play a really, really good Missouri team.
- 51:01Speaker 28: Kicker David Olano also hit a 57-yard field goal to
- 51:04Speaker 28: end the first half, which was a career-long and marked
- 51:07Speaker 28: the longest-made field goal since Terrence Kitchen's 62-yarder against South
- 51:11Speaker 28: Mississippi in 1999. Olano shared his thoughts on his career-long
- 51:16Speaker 28: field goal.
- 51:18Speaker 2: First and foremost, I've got to give glory to God.
- 51:20Speaker 2: It's such a blessing to be in this position, come
- 51:23Speaker 2: out here every Saturday with brothers. just play with the
- 51:26Speaker 2: abilities that he gifted us. But, yeah, I mean, honestly,
- 51:29Speaker 2: it felt amazing. I mean, you know, you want those moments,
- 51:32Speaker 2: especially before half, to go out there and double dip possibly,
- 51:35Speaker 2: make a field goal and come out of half knowing
- 51:37Speaker 2: that we're on offense. But, man, that felt good. I mean,
- 51:40Speaker 2: I knew I had the range for it. Loved that
- 51:42Speaker 2: coach trusted me with that. I mean, obviously loved that
- 51:44Speaker 2: I was able to convert that and kind of help
- 51:46Speaker 2: the team in that way going into the half.
- 51:49Speaker 28: Up next, the Aggies hit the road on Saturday to
- 51:51Speaker 28: travel to Columbia for a conference matchup against the Missouri
- 51:54Speaker 28: Tigers with kickoff set for 11 a.m. To kick off
- 51:58Speaker 28: the weekend, the Aggie volleyball team sweeped Alabama on Friday
- 52:01Speaker 28: night at Reed Arena, then turned around on Sunday afternoon
- 52:05Speaker 28: and sweeped Mississippi State as well, securing the maroon and
- 52:08Speaker 28: white six straight win in four consecutive sweep after downing
- 52:12Speaker 28: Mississippi State. Head coach Jamie Morrison recapped the Aggies' recent performances.
- 52:17Speaker 27: I thought the match has its ups and downs in
- 52:19Speaker 27: terms of, I don't know, the way we played and
- 52:20Speaker 27: the urgency that we had throughout it. But as I
- 52:22Speaker 27: told our team, like the ability to have some grit
- 52:24Speaker 27: and problem solve is one of the most important things
- 52:26Speaker 27: we talk about. So I thought we did that at
- 52:27Speaker 27: a really, really high level today. I think one, being
- 52:30Speaker 27: at home, we were able to work on a few
- 52:31Speaker 27: things that we needed to get better at. And it's
- 52:33Speaker 27: interesting because like whenever you do that, you kind of
- 52:34Speaker 27: have these blocks and the fall is hard when. especially
- 52:37Speaker 27: non-con when you have a match every three or four days,
- 52:39Speaker 27: it's really hard to kind of, I got what I
- 52:40Speaker 27: call break a skill. And then really, we really shatter
- 52:42Speaker 27: skills during the spring, but can we kind of break
- 52:44Speaker 27: things a little bit during the fall and then put
- 52:45Speaker 27: them back together by Friday and Saturday or Friday and
- 52:47Speaker 27: Sunday rather. And I think we've been doing that a
- 52:50Speaker 27: little bit of kind of like working on these little
- 52:52Speaker 27: systems within, and then you got to put the pieces
- 52:53Speaker 27: back together. So I think that's one of the things
- 52:55Speaker 27: I've probably enjoyed the most of kind of getting to
- 52:57Speaker 27: work on a couple of things within this that we
- 52:58Speaker 27: need to get better at. And then again, come kind
- 53:01Speaker 27: of see it come to fruition. And again, I think
- 53:03Speaker 27: things will smooth out as we get further and further
- 53:05Speaker 27: into SEC play.
- 53:06Speaker 28: Next up, the Aggies head to Oklahoma to face the
- 53:08Speaker 28: Sooners Wednesday night with first serve set for 6 o'clock
- 53:11Speaker 28: and you can watch the game on SEC Network. The
- 53:14Speaker 28: A & M soccer team fell to the Georgia Bulldogs
- 53:17Speaker 28: last Friday night in a 2-1 loss at the Turner
- 53:20Speaker 28: Soccer Complex. Up next, the Aggies return to action Friday
- 53:23Speaker 28: night when they travel to Starkville for a 7 o'clock
- 53:26Speaker 28: contest against the Mississippi State Bulldogs. The Aggie men's golf
- 53:30Speaker 28: team completed the first two rounds of the Fighting Irish
- 53:33Speaker 28: Classic on Sunday and sits in a three-way tie for
- 53:36Speaker 28: second at 2-over-562 after 36 holes at the Warren Golf Course.
