The Infomaniacs: September 10th 2026 (6:00am) · WTAW - Infomaniacs

0:02
Speaker 1: Good morning from the WTAW newsroom. I'm Will Welch. Kristen
0:07
Speaker 1: Distributing will be expanding their operations in North Bryan at
0:10
Speaker 1: Texas Triangle Park. The City of Bryan Brasses County Economic
0:14
Speaker 1: Development Foundation, a public partnership between the City of Bryan
0:17
Speaker 1: and Brasses County, sold 56.9 acres of land to Kristen Distributing.
0:22
Speaker 1: They plan to build a 200,000 square foot distribution facility
0:26
Speaker 1: next to their current facility. As part of the property
0:29
Speaker 1: sale agreement, Kristen Distributing agrees to begin construction of their
0:32
Speaker 1: expansion project within 24 months. If construction is not started
0:36
Speaker 1: before that deadline, the BBCEDF has the right to repurchase
0:41
Speaker 1: the land. Kristen was founded in 1930 and headquartered in
0:44
Speaker 1: Bryan since 1998. They have grown into a leading beverage
0:48
Speaker 1: distributor across Central Texas. They serve more than 2,100 retailers
0:52
Speaker 1: across Bryan and Temple, moving 3.5 million cases annually. They
0:56
Speaker 1: supply national brands like Red Bull, Molson Coors, and Heineken,
1:00
Speaker 1: and of course, their boots line of craft sodas. A
1:03
Speaker 1: woman was arrested Monday night after leaving an infant alone
1:06
Speaker 1: in a parking lot after dark. Bryan Police responded to
1:09
Speaker 1: a welfare concern at the Walmart at the 2200 block
1:13
Speaker 1: of Briarcrest Drive around 9.30 p.m. A caller said while
1:16
Speaker 1: the car was running, the baby was alone and crying.
1:20
Speaker 1: 44-year-old Tasha Martin O'Brien had made it back to the
1:23
Speaker 1: vehicle and was trying to leave when officers arrived. Martin
1:26
Speaker 1: said the nine-month-old boy was her godson. He was sitting
1:29
Speaker 1: in a child safety seat, but he was not restrained
1:31
Speaker 1: in the seat, nor was the seat secured to the vehicle.
1:34
Speaker 1: Martin says she was gone for less than five minutes,
1:37
Speaker 1: but dispatch records dispute that. The child's parents came to
1:41
Speaker 1: the scene to pick up the baby. Martin was arrested
1:43
Speaker 1: for abandonment of a child with intent to return. She
1:46
Speaker 1: was booked into the Brazos County Jail and has been
1:48
Speaker 1: released on $ 10, 000 bond. President Trump wants to help the
1:53
Speaker 1: American cattle industry by restoring mandatory country of origin labeling
1:57
Speaker 1: for beef. Experts say the public supports it, but it
2:00
Speaker 1: doesn't work. Couldn't we do the consumer research? That's where
2:03
Speaker 1: we fall out. We like the idea, but nobody wants
2:05
Speaker 1: to pay more for it. David Anderson at Texas A
2:08
Speaker 1: & M says that mandatory country of origin labeling is
2:11
Speaker 1: something that's been debated for decades. It was tried at
2:14
Speaker 1: the state legislature last session, but the bill never got
2:18
Speaker 1: a hearing. It's been five and a half years since
2:20
Speaker 1: winter storm Yuri plunged Texas into darkness, and some are
2:24
Speaker 1: still afraid it's going to happen again. Tom Overby at
2:27
Speaker 1: the Smart Grid Center says a lot of changes have
2:30
Speaker 1: happened since then.
2:31
Speaker 2: We've added a lot of new generations, and we've also
2:34
Speaker 2: added a lot of storage since then, so I think
2:37
Speaker 2: we're in pretty good shape.
2:39
Speaker 1: A new poll sponsored by the Texas Public Policy Foundation
2:42
Speaker 1: asked if people think the grid could reliably provide power
2:45
Speaker 1: during winter. A whopping 57% said no. The latest check
2:51
Speaker 1: on the Ross wildfire is promising. The fire hasn't consumed
2:54
Speaker 1: any land in addition to the approximately 90,000 acres it
2:57
Speaker 1: reached last week. The containment is now at 65%. The
3:02
Speaker 1: fire started on August 28th. It has destroyed 167 structures
3:06
Speaker 1: and damaged 95 others. 453 structures have been saved and
3:11
Speaker 1: no lives have been lost. Crews have deployed nearly a
3:14
Speaker 1: half million gallons of retardant and have put down 2.5
3:17
Speaker 1: million gallons of water. More news ahead at 6.30 or
3:21
Speaker 1: anytime at WTAW.com. I'm Will Welch, 1620-945-WTAW. My bad. Usually
3:31
Speaker 1: I can get a cough in.
3:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's my bad. Now, all that said, I wasn't
3:38
Speaker 3: expecting that rain chance to pan out yesterday.
3:40
Speaker 1: Neither was I.
3:40
Speaker 3: No one was.
3:41
Speaker 1: No, and one popped up, and on the radar, it
3:44
Speaker 1: was right on top of me, but nothing was happening.
3:46
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, that's just stupid. And then
3:49
Speaker 1: a little while later, something else started rolling through. I'd
3:52
Speaker 1: just taken Annie outside, and we had a big one.
3:55
Speaker 1: I mean, a big crack of thunder right overhead. Yeah.
3:59
Speaker 1: And it kind of startled her a little bit, and
4:01
Speaker 1: she was like, well, maybe we go back inside now.
4:04
Speaker 3: I'd love to see it. Hopefully, it got a little
4:06
Speaker 3: something from the sky, a 30% chance of more. Showers today,
4:10
Speaker 3: most of sunny in a high near 95. We'll keep
4:12
Speaker 3: a 30% chance of rain in the forecast for tomorrow.
4:17
Speaker 3: Weather is brought to you by our friends at Malik
4:20
Speaker 3: and Carrier. Your AC works hard and will continue working
4:25
Speaker 3: hard for at least another month and a half. But
4:26
Speaker 3: a well-tuned AC will save you money and keep you comfortable.
4:28
Speaker 3: Turn to the experts at Malik and Carrier to keep
4:30
Speaker 3: your AC running properly. Malik feels different.
4:32
Speaker 1: Month and a half, that's optimistic.
4:34
Speaker 3: Month and a half, where would this put us?
4:35
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving? Yeah, optimistic. We're going to be wearing shorts
4:39
Speaker 1: on Christmas. Actually, I did look at some long-range forecast, guys.
4:44
Speaker 1: And again, it's long-range stuff. But according to them, the
4:49
Speaker 1: Super El Nino is really going to get cranked up
4:53
Speaker 1: in the next couple of weeks. And we're going to
4:55
Speaker 1: see cooler temperatures and more rain chances.
4:58
Speaker 3: That's what we're supposed to be banking on is Super
5:01
Speaker 3: El Nino.
5:02
Speaker 1: Come on, Super El Nino.
5:04
Speaker 3: I will be optimistic. about a super el nino until
5:07
Speaker 3: until it pans out to nothing and we just get
5:11
Speaker 3: the same old fall but yeah whatever we'll find out
5:14
Speaker 3: i like to believe in a nice cool and very
5:17
Speaker 3: rainy fall.
5:18
Speaker 1: Look our five or six scattered days of fall are brilliant.
5:23
Speaker 3: It's a hell of a week will schedule is exhausting
5:26
Speaker 3: i i like um You were telling me about your
5:30
Speaker 3: plans for this weekend, which I don't know.
5:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't like weekend plans.
5:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, what is this? You're booking yourself too thin.
5:40
Speaker 1: No, no. I am not booking myself.
5:43
Speaker 4: Yeah.
5:44
Speaker 1: However, so Friday night, we've got the console game. Pflugerville.
5:48
Speaker 3: Yeah, which is basically driving to, let's be real, further
5:51
Speaker 3: than Austin.
5:51
Speaker 1: It is, and there's nothing pleasurable about that drive.
5:54
Speaker 3: It's the lamest way to get to Austin is having
5:57
Speaker 3: to drive to Pflugerville or Georgetown. It just sucks. It's
6:00
Speaker 3: not fun.
6:00
Speaker 1: The traffic's bad. You're driving into the sun. Of course,
6:05
Speaker 1: coming back, it's the middle of the night. By the
6:07
Speaker 1: time you get to Caldwell, you're just keeling over. So, yeah,
6:11
Speaker 1: I've got that Friday night. On Saturday, some very dear
6:14
Speaker 1: friends who we haven't seen in quite some time. invited
6:18
Speaker 1: us to the Aggie game. Oh, nice, dude. They don't
6:23
Speaker 1: have the cheap seats.
6:25
Speaker 3: Heck yeah.
6:26
Speaker 1: And we got invited.
6:27
Speaker 3: How uncheap are we talking?
6:29
Speaker 1: Well, we're going to the indoor tailgate at the MSC.
6:33
Speaker 3: There you go.
6:34
Speaker 1: Before the game.
6:35
Speaker 3: Yes.
6:36
Speaker 1: The hobnobbing with various folks. Right. So I've got a
6:40
Speaker 1: ton of stuff stacked up today, though, because yesterday afternoon
6:44
Speaker 1: I was Just getting into a project that my bed,
6:47
Speaker 1: one of the beds at the B & B was broken. Yes.
6:50
Speaker 1: So I'm having to replace the bed frame. Picked that
6:52
Speaker 1: up yesterday. I just got down there, just got the
6:55
Speaker 1: tools out. It was just about to start, and the
6:57
Speaker 1: wife said, hey, get ready. We've got to go to
6:59
Speaker 1: this thing.
7:00
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. So you go to the thing
7:03
Speaker 3: that you refer to is a community pep rally for
7:07
Speaker 3: College Station High School.
7:08
Speaker 5: Right.
7:08
Speaker 3: If I had like you've got like a solid you
7:11
Speaker 3: got to preserve some time. You got to have some
7:13
Speaker 3: time where you're not you're not going to something.
7:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, it's actually better. It's better than it used
7:20
Speaker 1: to be because, you know, one kid in college. So
7:22
Speaker 1: we're just trying to keep up with one. But she's
7:24
Speaker 1: the really busy one. Yeah. So we were at the
7:27
Speaker 1: community pep rally last night. College Station High School. Fantastic event.
7:31
Speaker 1: saw lots of people that we don't usually see.
7:34
Speaker 3: It was well attended by the community.
7:36
Speaker 1: Very well attended by the community. The parade I didn't
7:39
Speaker 1: get to see because I was watching. The reason I
7:41
Speaker 1: was there is because the Daughters Dance team was performing. Oh, right.
7:44
Speaker 1: The Wranglers, they're doing their country and western dance performance.
7:48
Speaker 1: So that's the reason I was there. But it was
7:50
Speaker 1: great to see people that we know and love, but
7:53
Speaker 1: that we don't get to see all the time. Because
7:55
Speaker 1: we're running in different circles.
7:57
Speaker 3: Because you don't build yourself up. buffer days.
8:00
Speaker 1: Well, no, I don't, I don't really, if a buffer
8:03
Speaker 1: day occurs, it's a surprise. I'm ill prepared.
8:06
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. You, you, you build these, you
8:09
Speaker 3: build these days.
8:10
Speaker 6: Yeah.
8:10
Speaker 3: I try to, you block the, the idea is you
8:12
Speaker 3: block out days where it's like, you know, you can
8:15
Speaker 3: psych yourself up for all the busy things you have
8:17
Speaker 3: to do.
8:17
Speaker 1: Yeah.
8:18
Speaker 3: Or is that defeat the purpose?
8:21
Speaker 1: I try to do that. Okay. I really do. But
8:23
Speaker 1: then like, I was completely unaware until, 30 minutes before
8:28
Speaker 1: it happened that I was supposed to be at this
8:30
Speaker 1: thing last night.
8:32
Speaker 3: An hour before it happened.
8:35
Speaker 1: Because we managed to go snag some Chinese food before
8:38
Speaker 1: we went to the... Because you were talking about Chinese
8:42
Speaker 1: food and Rain's love of it the other day. And
8:44
Speaker 1: it's still stuck in my head.
8:46
Speaker 3: And I should mention that yesterday I decided to... Because
8:49
Speaker 3: I couldn't get it out of my head about the
8:50
Speaker 3: Chicago Dogs. I decided to go to Wienerschnitzel. For the
8:55
Speaker 3: first time in, it's got to be years. I feel
8:59
Speaker 3: like they stepped their game up.
9:01
Speaker 1: Really?
9:01
Speaker 3: I don't remember it being that good.
9:05
Speaker 1: A lot of times, a lot of times you think
9:09
Speaker 1: back to restaurants of yesteryear.
9:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
9:11
Speaker 1: Where you had fond memories and you believed the food
9:14
Speaker 1: to be better than what it actually is. That happens
9:15
Speaker 1: all the time.
9:16
Speaker 3: But I've been, you know, many times I've been to Wienerschenzel.
9:19
Speaker 3: Many times I've been to hot dogs, et cetera. And
9:21
Speaker 3: I kind of know what I'm signing up for. We
9:23
Speaker 3: all know what we're signing up for. We're like, okay,
9:24
Speaker 3: all right, yeah, yeah. It's not going to be the
9:26
Speaker 3: best thing I've eaten.
9:27
Speaker 1: But it's what you want.
9:28
Speaker 3: I was very, very surprised.
9:31
Speaker 1: Did you have the Chicago dogs?
9:33
Speaker 3: I had two Chicago dogs. I had two Chicago dogs
9:37
Speaker 3: and two junkyard dogs. Man. And if I got to
9:42
Speaker 3: rate it, I'm going to put the Chicago's at, Jeez,
9:47
Speaker 3: maybe 7 out of 10.
9:48
Speaker 1: I'll take a 7 out of 10 Chicago.
9:50
Speaker 3: Junkyard talks, though. Once again, big fan of ordering things
9:55
Speaker 3: in bags. Don't give me counts. Just say one bag.
10:00
Speaker 1: Of.
10:01
Speaker 7: Yeah.
10:02
Speaker 3: I would do a bag of junkyard dogs in a second.
10:07
Speaker 1: Man.
10:07
Speaker 3: We might not need that hot dog idea, quite frankly.
10:11
Speaker 1: I don't know. I came up with a great name
10:12
Speaker 1: for our own hot dog restaurant. That's right. We should
10:15
Speaker 1: put in South College Station. I think we should call
10:18
Speaker 1: it the Kittle Club. I think it's brilliant.
10:22
Speaker 3: Because you got that dog in you.
10:24
Speaker 1: You got that dog in you.
10:25

12:41
Speaker 3: you have anything you want to add to the show today, 979-695-1620.
12:44
Speaker 3: I should have saved that Wienerschnitzel mention. For the fact
12:55
Speaker 3: that it is hot dog day today.
12:56
Speaker 1: I think you should have saved the wiener schnitzel. Yeah.
12:59
Speaker 1: And brought it to me. Right. For national hot dog day.
13:03
Speaker 3: Yes, it is. Well, not national. There's... This is one
13:06
Speaker 3: of those weird situations. There's multiple hot dog days. Don't
13:10
Speaker 3: know why. Generally, it's celebrated in July. I think we
13:13
Speaker 3: even talked about it. It's like, you know, sometimes.
13:15
Speaker 1: Right.
13:15
Speaker 3: It's grill and season. Well, it's close to July.
13:18
Speaker 1: You got the dog eating contest up there.
13:21
Speaker 3: But it also appears... On today, September 10th. So, I
13:26
Speaker 3: don't know. But with that said, perhaps today is a
13:29
Speaker 3: good day to go visit the hot dog purveyor of
13:33
Speaker 3: your choice. Which, of course, in Bryan College Station leaves
13:35
Speaker 3: you two.
13:36
Speaker 1: Right.
13:36
Speaker 3: Well, there's a third. We just don't know that much
13:38
Speaker 3: about it.
13:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a new one on Welburn Road that I've
13:41
Speaker 1: seen on the socials.
13:42
Speaker 3: Yeah, and haven't looked for a menu. Because I was like, oh,
13:45
Speaker 3: maybe there's something. Can't find any menu. Can't find it.
13:47
Speaker 3: Can't find anything about it. Just know that they do
13:50
Speaker 3: specialize in dogs.
13:51
Speaker 1: Although.
13:52
Speaker 3: seem to specialize in New York dogs, which I don't
13:55
Speaker 3: know quite what the difference is between. I mean, I
13:58
Speaker 3: know what a Chicago dog is, but like, can I
14:01
Speaker 3: not get a Chicago dog in New York?
14:03
Speaker 1: I would bet that you get punched if you order
14:05
Speaker 1: a Chicago dog.
14:06
Speaker 3: They get that personal about it.
14:08
Speaker 1: New York and Chicago do not like each other.
14:10
Speaker 3: Probably not chili either. Right? They probably have a problem
14:13
Speaker 3: with that, too.
14:13
Speaker 1: I'm betting that they don't do a chili dog up there,
14:15
Speaker 1: but I've never been to New York.
14:16
Speaker 3: Unless you just get the hot dog with mustard and
14:20
Speaker 3: that sad thing coming out of a cart.
14:22
Speaker 1: Coming out of a cart with 50-year-old New York water.
14:26
Speaker 13: Yes.
14:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't want that. Why would you ever order that?
14:30
Speaker 1: People do.
14:31
Speaker 3: Okay.
14:32
Speaker 1: Moving on.
14:33
Speaker 3: Port Wine Day, which is kind of a cool one here.
14:34
Speaker 3: It is celebrated on September 10th because this is when
14:37
Speaker 3: Portugal's government established the Douro wine region, something where port
14:43
Speaker 3: comes from. But if you're looking for some of the
14:46
Speaker 3: best port in the world, friends, you don't have to
14:48
Speaker 3: go all the way to Portugal. You can just wander
14:51
Speaker 3: over down the way to Messina Hoff because they've got
14:53
Speaker 3: one of them.
14:54
Speaker 1: That port is truly, it's a great wine. It's a
14:58
Speaker 1: great port wine. Yeah. You know, that variety, they hit
15:02
Speaker 1: the nail on the head. And I will go ahead
15:04
Speaker 1: and give you My official dessert using port wine. Find
15:09
Speaker 1: yourself a really good chocolate chip cookie. Homemade is good,
15:12
Speaker 1: but you can find any chocolate chip cookie. One scoop,
15:16
Speaker 1: Blue Bell homemade vanilla. Jigger of port wine over the top.
15:21
Speaker 3: Trust me on that. That is a winner.
15:25
Speaker 1: Goes great with a Chicago dog.
15:27
Speaker 3: Does not go great. Does it go great with a Chicago?
15:30
Speaker 1: I've never tried it, but now I want to.
15:32
Speaker 3: It is also So Be It Day today, a day
15:36
Speaker 3: to celebrate sewing, quilting, embroidery, and other needle crafts.
15:40
Speaker 1: I thought we were talking about Amen, which is the
15:42
Speaker 1: translation is So Be It.
15:44
Speaker 3: No, this is literally just a needle. But you know what?
15:48
Speaker 3: Make it whatever you want. There's no chance of me
15:51
Speaker 3: sewing anything.
15:52
Speaker 1: I'm going to call the daughter and tell her she
15:54
Speaker 1: needs to celebrate.
15:54
Speaker 3: Step it up. And finally, TV dinner day. The Swanson
15:59
Speaker 3: TV dinner was introduced way back in the day today
16:02
Speaker 3: in either 1953 or 1954. Odd that they got the
16:05
Speaker 3: date right on the head, but they can't quite figure
16:08
Speaker 3: out the year. And the classic story is that Swanson
16:11
Speaker 3: was basically had overstocked Thanksgiving turkey and they didn't know
16:16
Speaker 3: what to do with it. And then one of their
16:18
Speaker 3: salespeople was like, yo, I was on a flight recently,
16:22
Speaker 3: and these little trays, why don't you just throw them
16:24
Speaker 3: all in trays with some cornbread and all this other stuff,
16:26
Speaker 3: and just call it a TV dinner. It stuck. It
16:30
Speaker 3: just blew it out of the water.
16:32
Speaker 1: I think they invented some freezing techniques to go along
16:35
Speaker 1: with that, too. I believe you're correct.
16:38
Speaker 3: Does anyone still eat them? And if you did, what's
16:43
Speaker 3: the TV dinner of choice today? Can't be Swanson.
16:47
Speaker 1: I bet that it is. I bet Swanson is a
16:50
Speaker 1: player in the TV dinner game.
16:51
Speaker 3: I remember Hungry Man meals about probably 20 years ago.
16:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, those were bigger.
16:57
Speaker 3: They were bigger. And yeah, you could buy like 10
17:00
Speaker 3: of them and just, you know, whenever you needed something,
17:02
Speaker 3: just throw it in the microwave. You're good.
17:05
Speaker 1: Well, you weren't good. You had that sodium problem afterwards. Yeah,
17:10
Speaker 1: I ate a lot of TV dinners. Not a lot, but,
17:12
Speaker 1: you know, I remember them from being a kid. And
17:14
Speaker 1: it was kind of an exciting thing. Oh, we get
17:17
Speaker 1: to eat a TV dinner tonight.
17:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Then you get older and you do it,
17:21
Speaker 3: and it's just kind of like.
17:22
Speaker 1: Sad. Yeah, sad.
17:22
Speaker 3: But has the TV dinner been replaced by those, like,
17:27
Speaker 3: froofy meal delivery things for, like, fit people?
17:30
Speaker 1: Meal delivery things, and at the grocery-atoriums, you can get
17:34
Speaker 1: the pre... H-E-B, yes! You can get the pre-made stuff
17:36
Speaker 1: that all you got to do is toss it in
17:38
Speaker 1: the oven.
17:38
Speaker 3: I mean, that is a TV dinner, is it not? Yeah,
17:41
Speaker 3: pretty much.
17:42
Speaker 1: It just costs.
17:43
Speaker 3: like 10 times the cost of a regular TV dinner.
17:48
Speaker 3: But yeah, perhaps it is still bigger than we think.
17:51
Speaker 1: Possibly.
17:52
Speaker 3: Birthdays, what do we have today?
17:53

Speaker 1: a factor. Reeder was a deacon at the Vandiver Street
28:54
Speaker 1: Church of Christ in Burnett. A woman was arrested Monday
28:58
Speaker 1: night after she left her nine-month-old godson alone inside a

Speaker 1: running vehicle in a Walmart parking lot. Officers responded to
29:05
Speaker 1: a welfare concern at the Walmart in the 2200 block

Speaker 1: in the seat, nor was the seat secured to the vehicle.
29:26
Speaker 1: Martin told police she had gone inside Walmart and been
29:29
Speaker 1: in the store for less than five minutes. Dispatch records
29:32
Speaker 1: showed that seven minutes had passed between the initial call
29:35

Speaker 1: in her purse. 69-year-old Arlene Elizabeth Hamblett paid for items
31:22
Speaker 1: in her shopping cart, but not those in her purse,
31:25
Speaker 1: including a Mickey Mouse pop socket, facial moisturizer, clothing, beef jerky,
31:30
Speaker 1: and Halloween-themed earrings. Hamblett told officers she was willing to
31:34
Speaker 1: go back and pay for the items. She was charged
31:36
Speaker 1: with theft between $ 100 and $ 750 and is free on $ 3, 000 bond.
31:41
Speaker 1: Dallas police not only have to deal with the influx
31:45
Speaker 1: of attendees in town for the GOP's midterm convention, There's
31:49
Speaker 1: going to be protesters, and DPD Chief Devin Palk says
31:53
Speaker 1: they're ready.
31:54
Speaker 2: Managing and working with protests is something we do quite
31:57
Speaker 2: frequently here in Dallas. As a department, we work to
32:01
Speaker 2: allow folks to be able to express their First Amendment rights,
32:05
Speaker 2: but also be able to do it safely.
32:07
Speaker 1: Palk says they have already been in contact with some
32:10
Speaker 1: of the groups that are planning demonstrations during the convention. Meanwhile,
32:14
Speaker 1: Dallas City Council members want to make sure they're reimbursed
32:16
Speaker 1: for the cost of additional law enforcement. Estimates show that
32:20
Speaker 1: the city will have to pay about $ 2 million for security.
32:23
Speaker 1: City Councilwoman Kara Mendelson says there will be costs that
32:27
Speaker 1: they will not recover, but they must ensure that everyone
32:30
Speaker 1: is protected.
32:31
Speaker 20: I hope we will be reimbursed, especially because the convention
32:34
Speaker 20: is essentially a fundraiser. And the folks that lobbied to
32:39
Speaker 20: get this in Dallas, you know, not all of them
32:41
Speaker 20: live in Dallas. Some of them are in Highland Park
32:43
Speaker 20: and University Park. And I hope they will make the
32:46
Speaker 20: city whole. We deserve to be whole.
32:48
Speaker 1: The convention co-chair said this week that he didn't think
32:51
Speaker 1: the city would be on the hook for any of it.

Speaker 1: Riding on the coattails of the Republican convention, Democrats like
32:57
Speaker 1: Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker have made their way down to
33:00
Speaker 1: Texas to complain.
33:02
Speaker 18: This bizarre Republican midterm convention here can't.
33:07
Speaker 1: Paper over the fact that Republicans have done nothing to
33:11
Speaker 1: earn your vote. While calling it an empty spectacle, Pritzker
33:15

Speaker 3: Who imposes property taxes?
34:51
Speaker 1: State government.
34:52
Speaker 3: Nice try, but no.
34:54
Speaker 24: Local governments.
34:56
Speaker 15: Correct.
34:57
Speaker 1: And we have a winner.
34:59
Speaker 25: Here's Governor Greg Abbott on his plan to control property taxes.
35:03
Speaker 26: The state of Texas does not impose a property tax.
35:06
Speaker 26: Only local governments impose property taxes. One of the reasons
35:10
Speaker 26: why your property taxes are going up is because local
35:13
Speaker 26: governments are increasing their spending. So the first thing we
35:16
Speaker 26: got to do is to stop the spending that leads
35:20
Speaker 26: to property tax increases. You should have a say on
35:23
Speaker 26: whether or not your property taxes go up. It should
35:26
Speaker 26: be a vote that requires two-thirds vote before any property
35:30
Speaker 26: tax increase can ever be imposed on our fellow Texans.
35:33
Speaker 26: You're going to be able to live in your home
35:35
Speaker 26: for the rest of your lives without being priced out
35:38
Speaker 26: of it.
35:38
Speaker 1: Protecting homeowners. Lowering property taxes. That's Governor Greg Abbott. Political

36:28
Speaker 3: if you had to choose one. Do you choose HDE,
36:30
Speaker 3: hot dogs, et cetera, or do you choose the Wienerschnitzel?
36:34
Speaker 3: I'd After yesterday, I got to go Wienerschnitzel. That was
36:37
Speaker 3: a transformative trip.
36:38
Speaker 1: I haven't been to either in forever.
36:41
Speaker 3: Mike disagrees. This is hot dogs, et cetera, by far,
36:44
Speaker 3: because they had the best chili, which is what makes
36:46
Speaker 3: them the best.
36:48
Speaker 1: And I agree. Both are great. Both are. And we
36:51
Speaker 1: need to we need to name that economic development area. Yeah.
36:54
Speaker 1: Is it the Wiener Mile?
36:55
Speaker 3: That's a hot dog alley.
36:57
Speaker 1: Yeah. Hot dog. Hot dog alley. I like that word.
37:00
Speaker 3: Deanna Texan TV dinners are no longer called TV dinners
37:03
Speaker 3: are called microwave dinners, which are air fryer dinners.
37:08
Speaker 1: I mean, whatever. They don't have to call them TV
37:10
Speaker 1: dinners anymore because it's almost guaranteed that you're going to be.
37:13
Speaker 1: stuffing that in your pie hole in front of a
37:14
Speaker 1: tv i mean it's a bit of phone dinners which
37:16
Speaker 1: is also the other yeah exactly oh while.
37:20
Speaker 3: You were at the community pep rally for college station
37:23
Speaker 3: high school getting peppy time getting getting exceedingly what's the
37:26
Speaker 3: what's the pep on point.
37:27
Speaker 1: The pep was really on point the kids did a
37:30
Speaker 1: great job with it i love it uh one one
37:32
Speaker 1: particular uh uh girl on the microphone let's just say
37:36
Speaker 1: that she was uh Probably not used to speaking on
37:40
Speaker 1: a microphone on a PA system that was that loud.
37:43
Speaker 27: No.
37:44
Speaker 1: I probably could have heard her without it. Really? Yeah.
37:46
Speaker 1: But the sound system handled it.
37:48
Speaker 3: Well, you know what that is. You're getting high school
37:49
Speaker 3: gassed up.
37:50
Speaker 5: Yeah.
37:50
Speaker 3: You're just like.
37:51
Speaker 1: Fired up, man. It was a pep rally.
37:53
Speaker 3: That's what you're there for.
37:54
Speaker 1: She did a great job. Maybe decaf.
37:57
Speaker 3: That's all I'm saying. I, on the other hand, was
38:01
Speaker 3: sitting at home watching TV. Because the NFL kickoff was
38:04
Speaker 3: last night.
38:05
Speaker 1: It was last night.
38:07
Speaker 3: Seattle got the W, by the way. But I wanted
38:08
Speaker 3: to call your attention to this. I love a good
38:11
Speaker 3: national anthem. Love a good national anthem. This is how
38:15
Speaker 3: they kicked off the game for Seattle. They got Mike McCready.
38:21
Speaker 1: Okay.
38:21
Speaker 3: From Pearl Jam.
38:22
Speaker 1: Pretty good guy.
38:23
Speaker 3: No one else.
38:23
Speaker 1: Well known in the area.
38:25
Speaker 3: Just Mike.
38:29
Speaker 17: Just Mike.
38:33
Speaker 3: This is how you start an NFL game.
38:37
Speaker 1: I think so. And so far, not overdone. No. Tasteful.
38:45
Speaker 7: Simple.
38:49
Speaker 3: To the point.
38:50
Speaker 23: Yeah.
38:52
Speaker 27: Nice.
38:54
Speaker 1: A little bit of sauce there.
38:56
Speaker 3: Don't mind it. Don't mind it.
39:02
Speaker 1: But again, not overdone.
39:05
Speaker 26: No.
39:05
Speaker 1: Some people try to outkick their coverage on this one.
39:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a hard song to deal with, number one,
39:11
Speaker 3: if you're performing it. You have to point so the
39:15
Speaker 3: crowd's going to get into it. Just kind of knock
39:17
Speaker 3: it out. Don't overthink it. I'm very impressed by the
39:22
Speaker 3: way they handled this.
39:23
Speaker 6: Doesn't hurt that.
39:30
Speaker 3: I'm a massive Pearl Jam fan either. I mean, that
39:31
Speaker 3: probably biases me a little bit.
39:33
Speaker 1: A little bit. But you talk about a band that
39:36
Speaker 1: shaped our generations. Pretty solid. And again, Target Demo, you know,
39:45
Speaker 1: they're appealing.
39:46
Speaker 3: They're trying to.
39:47
Speaker 1: Appeal to a Target Demo there. Was that the only
39:50
Speaker 1: national anthem that they played there? That was it. Really?
39:54
Speaker 3: That was it. And I wanted to contrast this with
39:57
Speaker 3: a story I was frankly horrified by that you presented me.
40:02
Speaker 1: That's right. I learned this morning. The Bills home opener
40:07
Speaker 1: in Buffalo.
40:08
Speaker 3: In Buffalo.
40:09
Speaker 1: Going to have two national anthems. They're going to have
40:13
Speaker 1: our national anthem. And then a Canadian band will perform
40:18
Speaker 1: O Canada.
40:20
Speaker 3: That's going to go over like a lead balloon.
40:22
Speaker 1: In Buffalo, I think so.
40:24
Speaker 3: That is a horrific idea. Look, who gave them the idea? Look,
40:30
Speaker 3: during these trying times.
40:32
Speaker 1: If you think of something smart and you present it
40:34
Speaker 1: to the NFL, chances are good they're going to do
40:37
Speaker 1: the exact opposite.
40:38
Speaker 3: That is insane.
40:39
Speaker 1: They think that they are so huge that they can
40:41
Speaker 1: bridge the gap. We can bring peace to our two nations.
40:46
Speaker 3: That's not how it's going to go. It's the Bills mafia.
40:48
Speaker 3: They're going to get booed out.
40:49
Speaker 1: Of the building. They're going to put a Canuck through
40:51
Speaker 1: a table and then hit him with a folding chair.
40:53
Speaker 3: This is really how you want to start your brand
40:56
Speaker 3: new stadium?
40:58
Speaker 1: Are they in a brand new stadium?
40:59
Speaker 3: Isn't this game one?
41:01
Speaker 1: I don't know.
41:02
Speaker 3: Of their new palace to smashing people through tables? I
41:07
Speaker 3: don't know.
41:09
Speaker 1: I mean, the fans aren't going to change. You could
41:11
Speaker 1: give them the Taj Mahal.
41:13
Speaker 3: No, they're always Bills. Always Bills fans. Should just play this.
41:19
Speaker 1: Playing Canada. Yep. What have those hosers done today?
41:26
Speaker 3: Well, in addition... To forcing their way into our NFL
41:33
Speaker 3: Week 1 celebrations in Buffalo. It was called to my
41:37
Speaker 3: attention that we have not acknowledged one of the biggest
41:40
Speaker 3: Canadian imports there is in Bryan College Station.
41:43
Speaker 1: That would be Tim Hortons. Yeah, we thought about that
41:45
Speaker 1: yesterday because Area Man, our dear leader, wanted Tim Hortons.
41:50
Speaker 3: What's your opinion on Tim Hortons?
41:52
Speaker 1: Totally different animal. And I like it.
41:54
Speaker 3: I had never had Tim Hortons before. Until yesterday.
41:58
Speaker 1: I had not had it until he brought it up
41:59
Speaker 1: here a couple or three months ago.
42:01
Speaker 3: Like, those are some... It's a different animal, man. I
42:04
Speaker 3: was not expecting that quality of doughnuts. Out of the Canadians.
42:08
Speaker 3: I don't know why I wasn't.
42:09
Speaker 1: I mean, they are famous for them.
42:11
Speaker 3: They do, yeah. They kind of know their stuff. But, man,
42:16
Speaker 3: I wasn't nervous about this whole thing, and now I'm.
42:18
Speaker 1: A little bit... Now that you've had a taste... Yeah,
42:19
Speaker 1: I don't think I like the fact that... Of the
42:21
Speaker 1: pure Canadian, the puro, as you said yesterday... The puro, yes. Yeah,
42:25
Speaker 1: the pure Canadian donut.
42:28
Speaker 3: I would have rather just not known that exists before
42:30
Speaker 3: it gets taken away.
42:31
Speaker 1: My life, I'm fine either way, with or without donuts...
42:36
Speaker 1: I can live without them. But that is something that
42:39
Speaker 1: has not been mentioned in all these trade talks. No.
42:42
Speaker 1: And if it comes up, it could be very detrimental
42:45
Speaker 1: at the midterms.
42:46
Speaker 3: You've got to weigh these options. You're back after this.
42:50
Speaker 7: Hi, this is Neal Sperry, and I'll be back with
42:52

43:33
Speaker 7: enclosed on all sides that you can see by a
43:36
Speaker 7: six-foot fence that makes you feel like a prisoner in
43:38
Speaker 7: your own home landscape. Taming a Texas fence. I'll be
43:41
Speaker 7: back with details right after this message. Avid gardeners know
43:45
Speaker 7: that when it comes to planting success, it's all about
43:48

Speaker 7: to Fertilome.com. Fertilome Root Stimulator and Plant Starter Solution. Made
44:41
Speaker 7: in Texas for Texas plants. How can you take away
44:45
Speaker 7: some of the shock of that squareness from your fence
44:48
Speaker 7: so the fence will look more like the woodland meadow
44:50
Speaker 7: of your dreams, the landscape around that fence? Well, I
44:53
Speaker 7: have some steps to consider. Any that you care to
44:57
Speaker 7: use will help break up the starkness of straight wooden fencing.
45:01
Speaker 7: Consider a peninsula planting that juts out into your landscape.
45:04
Speaker 7: If your backyard is large enough, you can run a
45:07
Speaker 7: curved bed partway into the lawn. It should be two-thirds
45:10
Speaker 7: of the way from the front to the back of
45:12
Speaker 7: the yard, and it should extend either one-third or two-thirds
45:15
Speaker 7: of the way into the lawn. By keeping all of
45:18
Speaker 7: its lines away from the midpoints of the yard it
45:20
Speaker 7: will look a lot more natural. Your peninsular bed should
45:24
Speaker 7: be five to eight feet wide and probably should be
45:26
Speaker 7: curved all along its boundary with your lawn. If the
45:30
Speaker 7: rest of your landscape is extremely formal with square corners
45:33
Speaker 7: and straight lines, however, this bed should probably be the
45:36
Speaker 7: same way. It's just easier to get a soft and
45:39
Speaker 7: more natural look with the curves. If you really want
45:41
Speaker 7: to break the line of sight back to the fence,
45:43
Speaker 7: consider a low berm for the bed. It could swell
45:46
Speaker 7: up and out of the existing grade by as much
45:48
Speaker 7: as 12 or 18 inches, and it could look like
45:51
Speaker 7: a small slope transported from the hill country directly to
45:55
Speaker 7: your backyard. Be careful how you plant the berm, however,
45:58
Speaker 7: so that you maintain the natural look. Don't use tall
46:01
Speaker 7: plants at the crest. You may also want to develop
46:05
Speaker 7: a bed or two along the fence itself, probably on
46:07
Speaker 7: the side of the yard that's opposite the peninsular plantings.
46:11
Speaker 7: If the jutting bed is two-thirds of the way out
46:13
Speaker 7: from the house, this fence bed on the opposite side
46:16
Speaker 7: should probably be closer to the house. Again, use curved
46:19
Speaker 7: boundaries to keep it natural. It'll extend out three to
46:22
Speaker 7: five feet from the fence. As you work the ground
46:25
Speaker 7: for the bed, be careful that you don't pile soil
46:27
Speaker 7: against the wood of the fence. Use low shrubs and
46:30
Speaker 7: vines in this bed as you try to tie the
46:33
Speaker 7: fence visually to the lawn and the landscape it surrounds.
46:37
Speaker 7: You may also want a shade tree or two not
46:39
Speaker 7: only to camouflage the fence, but also to give you
46:41
Speaker 7: protection from the hot summer sun. These, too, need to
46:44
Speaker 7: look like they're natural to the area. Your tree or
46:47
Speaker 7: shrubs should be planted to the sides of the landscape
46:50
Speaker 7: so that they inframe all else that you're doing. Most
46:53
Speaker 7: designers use a 60-40 ratio. Focal points like this would
46:57
Speaker 7: be 40% of the way from one side of the
46:59
Speaker 7: side walls and either 40% to 60% of the way
47:03
Speaker 7: back in the garden. Don't go for the midpoint. Now,
47:07
Speaker 7: there are lots of things you can do to enjoy
47:09
Speaker 7: your fence to the fullest. You just need to keep
47:12
Speaker 7: it simple. If you're planting vines over it and there's
47:14
Speaker 7: some wonderful choices, plant the vine on the opposite side.
47:17
Speaker 7: Let it tumble into your yard.
47:18
Speaker 1: That'll help.
47:19
Speaker 7: Happy your houseplants in our next program. Until then, happy gardening.

Speaker 26: Good morning.
48:37
Speaker 24: I'm Riley Flurkey with your morning sports update on 1620-945-WTAW.
48:43
Speaker 24: The 19th ranked Aggie volleyball team upset the number four
48:47
Speaker 24: ranked Stanford last night.
48:49
Speaker 8: Three and four on the season, but they have discovered
48:53
Speaker 8: a lot here tonight against fourth-ranked Stanford.
48:56
Speaker 11: That missed.
49:00
Speaker 8: Texas A & M in four sets gives Stanford their
49:05
Speaker 8: first loss of the season.
49:08
Speaker 24: Downing the Cardinals in the Shiner's Children's Showdown at the
49:11
Speaker 24: net for the ACC and SEC Challenge Week in a
49:14
Speaker 24: 3-1 win. Head coach Jamie Morrison spoke about the team's performance.
49:19
Speaker 5: That feels amazing and i've been talking all season just
49:22
Speaker 5: we got the pieces here and it's about putting together
49:24
Speaker 5: in the right way and i said when it clicks
49:25
Speaker 5: it's going to be special and i think you saw
49:27
Speaker 5: that tonight there's a few things we talked about a
49:30
Speaker 5: little bit like the model model of the night was
49:31
Speaker 5: just do your job like hey we don't need to
49:33
Speaker 5: do everything on the court we just need to do
49:34
Speaker 5: the things that are in front of us right now
49:36
Speaker 5: and then I think the second piece is just the
49:38
Speaker 5: different pieces of our game have been firing at different
49:40
Speaker 5: times all season. And I think even tonight, they're still
49:42
Speaker 5: going to grow, but they started to click together at
49:44
Speaker 5: the same time where we were playing good volleyball in
49:46
Speaker 5: all phases at the same time. And again, that's the
49:48
Speaker 5: result that you can see throughout the year.
49:50
Speaker 24: Outside hitter Kendall Stowers also talked about the feeling of
49:53
Speaker 24: the upset win against Stanford.
49:56
Speaker 6: I mean, it's just the thing that literally Jamie said
49:57
Speaker 6: it after the Indiana game. It was like we all
50:01
Speaker 6: have to come in and we all have to do
50:02
Speaker 6: our part, and that's exactly what we did. We've been
50:04
Speaker 6: in practice every single day this week working on that,
50:07
Speaker 6: and practice this week has shown that. And so we've
50:09
Speaker 6: just been talking about now that we've done it in practice,
50:11
Speaker 6: we have to be able to show everybody else this.
50:13
Speaker 6: We have to go do it on a stage, especially
50:15
Speaker 6: against a number four-ranked team.
50:16
Speaker 3: That's huge.
50:17
Speaker 6: Going from Indiana to that is a big jump, and
50:20
Speaker 6: it's nothing that surprises us. It's everything that we've seen
50:22
Speaker 6: in practice, and we were just able to actually display
50:23
Speaker 6: it in the game.
50:24
Speaker 24: Up next, the Aggies return home tomorrow night to close
50:27
Speaker 24: out the week in a Friday night showdown against Wisconsin
50:30
Speaker 24: at Reed Arena with first serve set for 7 o'clock.
50:34
Speaker 3: The No.
50:34
Speaker 24: 10 A & M football team is two days away
50:37
Speaker 24: from hosting the Arizona State Sun Devils at Kyle Field.
50:40
Speaker 24: Head coach Mike Elko recapped the Aggies' overall performance from
50:44
Speaker 24: Week 1 and how the team looked on all sides
50:46
Speaker 24: of the ball.
50:47
Speaker 27: I thought the game went the way we talked about
50:49
Speaker 27: it going. I thought defensively we were solid throughout the game.
50:53
Speaker 27: I don't think there was much on tape that we
50:54
Speaker 27: looked at and felt like they had and didn't execute.
50:58
Speaker 27: I think we were able to play the game the
51:00
Speaker 27: way we wanted to. Obviously, there'll be greater challenges down
51:02
Speaker 27: the road for us. Offensively, certainly have to figure out
51:07
Speaker 27: how to improve the lull that we hit through the
51:09
Speaker 27: beginning of the middle of the first quarter into the
51:11
Speaker 27: second quarter, but again, I think a lot of that
51:14
Speaker 27: was self-inflicted, and so it's going back to the drawing
51:17
Speaker 27: board and kind of fixing it. And I thought it
51:18
Speaker 27: was a really good start for us on special teams.
51:20
Speaker 27: I think the way we kicked, the way we punted,
51:23
Speaker 27: and then just overall how we played from an effort
51:25
Speaker 27: standpoint on special teams units, I was really, really proud.
51:28
Speaker 27: And so now we turn our attention. I told our
51:31
Speaker 27: guys this, now the season really gets going and we're
51:34
Speaker 27: going to welcome in a really, really talented Arizona State
51:37
Speaker 27: team this weekend.
51:38
Speaker 24: Coach Elko also talked about the challenges that Arizona State
51:41
Speaker 24: will be bringing to the table ahead of Saturday's game.
51:44
Speaker 27: I'm not worried about going forward. I'm worried about winning
51:47
Speaker 27: this game. They're going to present a lot of challenges.
51:49
Speaker 27: They've got a really talented defensive line. They've got two
51:52
Speaker 27: NFL corners. They've got two NFL wideouts. They've got a
51:55
Speaker 27: quarterback who's really big and talented. They're really aggressive on
51:58
Speaker 27: special teams. The only thing I'm focused on is these
52:01
Speaker 27: four quarters and whether or not we can figure out
52:03
Speaker 27: a way to win a football game.
52:05
Speaker 24: The Maroon and White are set to hit the field
52:07
Speaker 24: on Saturday morning at Kyle Field with kickoff set for

52:21
Speaker 24: is set for 7.35 tonight and can be watched on Netflix.
52:25
Speaker 24: The A & M women's golf team stormed back at
52:28
Speaker 24: the Folds of Honor Collegiate Tournament finishing runner-up. The Aggie
52:32
Speaker 24: baseball team received their 2027 SEC conference schedule and will
52:37
Speaker 24: be starting off the season on the road from March
52:39
Speaker 24: 19th through 21st against Alabama. Texas A & M Cross
52:43
Speaker 24: Country's Jack Johnston was named SEC Men's Runner of the
52:47
Speaker 24: Week after breaking the Watts Cross Country record with a
52:50
Speaker 24: time of 14 minutes and 48 seconds. In the MLB
