  Speaker 1: morning from the WTAW newsroom. I'm Will Welch. A Brian
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: man is being held on over a half million dollars
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: bond after a drug arrest Saturday. College Station police were
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: making a traffic stop in the 500 block of University
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Drive East just before 1.30 Saturday morning. Their suspicions were
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: aroused when the driver seemed excessively nervous. 27-year-old Brian Roman
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: of Bryan refused consent for officers to search his vehicle.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: After a canine alerted from outside his vehicle, officers were
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: able to conduct a probable cause search that revealed over
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: four pounds of marijuana in more than 500 Xanax, over
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: 900 units of LSD, more than 150 THC vape cartridges,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: and over 1,300 grams of Adderall. Nearly $ 6, 000 in cash
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: was also confiscated. Roman was charged with seven counts of
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: manufactured delivery of a controlled substance, three counts of possession
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: of a controlled substance, and one count of possession of marijuana.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: His bond was set at $ 640, 000, but he is also
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: being held on an ICE detainer. ICE agents conducting an
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: operation in Bryan contacted 911 after they encountered aggressive drivers.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: The Brazos County Sheriff's Office says the ICE agents contacted
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Brazos County 911 just before noon on Saturday, reporting that
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: they were being followed by several individuals who were driving
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: recklessly and attempting to block the path of their vehicles.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Agents met members of the Sheriff's Office and the Bryan
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Police Department at the Brazos County Jail. The Sheriff's Office
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: and Bryan PD said they were not involved in the
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: ICE operation. A woman crashed into a fire truck near
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Northgate over the weekend. The College Station Police and Fire
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Departments were on the scene of a wreck on Welburn
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: near University just after 2.30 a.m. Saturday morning. The fire
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: truck was blocking a lane of traffic to allow responders
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: to safely work the scene. That's when 21-year-old Kylie Davis
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: of Midland drove her pickup into the fire truck. No
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: one was injured, but the impact was enough to cause
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: significant damage to the fire truck's bumper. Davis failed a
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: field sobriety test and was charged with driving while intoxicated.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: She was released Sunday on $ 5, 000 bond. One man is
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: jailed after pepper spray and a handgun came out during
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: an argument Saturday night in Bryan. Reports say 35-year-old David
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Lamb and 49-year-old Christopher Alvarado were involved in a verbal
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: altercation outside of the Los Cucos on Highway 6 near
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Boonville Road just after 9 o'clock Saturday night. Lamb says
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: that Alvarado threw a drink at his vehicle. Alvarado says
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Lamb tried to run him off the road. Both men
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: ended up outside of their vehicles in the restaurant parking
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: lot where Lamb was pepper sprayed by Alvarado. Lamb says
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: he unholstered his handgun only after he was pepper sprayed.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Alvarado claims he responded after Lamb drew his weapon. After
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: interviewing both men, police arrested Lamb for aggravated assault with
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: a deadly weapon, and Alvarado was released from the scene.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Lamb is being held on $ 50, 000 bond. Lamb has previous
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: offenses for evading arrest, theft under $ 500, and unlawful carrying
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: of a weapon. And it's worth noting that Alvarado was
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: sent to prison in 1994 for attempted murder. News is

• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Good morning.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Tucker, Will, the Infomaniacs. 979-695-1620 is our phone number. Let's
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: talk traffic first.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so we received a media alert on Friday about
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: an oversized load making its way through Grimes, Brazos, and
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Robertson counties. Supposed to be leaving the Navasota area here shortly,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: about 830. We did have a listener send in some pictures.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: Of Which was incredibly, incredibly helpful. So thank you for that.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because we could not picture exactly.
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: That was our question.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: It was like, well, how big of a load do
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: you have to get before they put out a notice
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: to everyone about your load?
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: And it turns out very, very large.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: It's big.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Like a monstrosity of a structure.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: We don't know the exact route. What we can tell
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: you is if you're stuck behind it, you're stuck behind it.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: And just be patient. And that's a viable excuse to
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: be late.
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: Wherever you're going. Yes, you have been warned.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: You can go to our Facebook page and see the pictures.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: And you can download that and send that to whoever
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: your meeting was supposed to be with that you're late for.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: Or just live dangerously and you will see it in person.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Because that is going to take a long time to
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: get where it's going.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: It's big. Now.
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: On to weather.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: I do appreciate the evolving situation that we have here online. Because, again,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: I know in my head how this is working. Like,
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: you've had that first batch of the early morning TV
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: meteorologists that get up and do morning shows like when
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: we do. And they start putting out their stuff. Now,
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: the regular meteorologists, the Travis Herzogs, the Maxes, whoever you follow.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: They are putting out their posts about this. And then
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: the internet journalists aren't going to wake up early. So
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: they're waking up at 7 a.m. Now they're getting their
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: posts out. And so now what I see is several
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: different tracks of what this blob, which will probably become
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Tropical Storm, Tropical Thing Eduardo, is going to do.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: Now, I have some tracks that are as high as
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: 50% for us to see.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: The good good in between us and Caldwell. Everything else
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: seems to be putting it more towards our eastern counties.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: And that is what we have to remember, Will. What
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: is good for us, Will and Tucker, and our properties,
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: not necessarily good for those in our eastern counties. Maybe
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: they could use a little more of this action. In fairness,
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: you guys are sitting pretty currently, but that could all change.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: We know how it goes.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Things can shift. The models that I'm looking at,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: some have it tracking right over the top of us.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Most are kind of shifting it just a little bit
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: west of us. And the estimates I'm seeing... are about
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: one inch for the Bryan College Station area. Now, just
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: if you head toward Beat Ice, for example, or Madisonville,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: pretty close to two inches.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: That's real nice.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's going to be throughout.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: They say Wednesday and Thursday is supposed to be the
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: biggest opportunities, but you're looking at about a 40% chance,
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: maybe more, of rain any given day.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Just bring it. Bring me some rain. I'll take what
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I can get.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: All of the rain.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: Weather is brought to you by our friends at Malik
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: Service Company and the Texas Heat Air Conditioner Works Overtime.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: But a well-tuned AC will save you money and keep
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: you comfortable. Turn to Malik and Carrier to keep your
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: AC running properly. Malik, feel the difference. Will, when do
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: you hit your energy wall? Now, this is different for us.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Well, different for us.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: But you mentioned on Friday you had a 22-hour day
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: because you did the radio show.
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: And then you did life.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: And then you drove to watch a football game and
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: then drove back after the football game.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: And my life was spared when the Lord blessed me
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: with a case of the hiccups and kept me awake
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: on the way home. No kidding. We talked about that earlier.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: When do you hit your wall any given day?
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: So, you know, back when I was working a normal schedule.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: That mid-afternoon was tough. Nowadays, my wall generally hits right
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: after I leave here. If I go home and I
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: make myself some chorizo egg and cheese tacos, right after
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: that is a wall.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: That's the thing.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: The wall moves to whenever I typically eat, and I
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: don't know why that is.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: It just, boom.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Eating makes you sleepy.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: It's right there.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: The average American says they hit their energy wall, which average,
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: I'm going to assume you're nine to fivers.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: 2.48 p.m. is when you make impact.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: That's boldly specific.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: I have no clue how they, but 20% of people
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: say they start feeling drained before noon, which a lot of.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: The responses to this, well, how do you get tired?
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: A lot of that 20%, I'm going to guess, is
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: the us response.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: Not necessarily radio show hosts, but people who have to
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: wake up and go to work at like 5 in
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: the morning or 6 in the morning.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Early mornings and late hour people.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: That wall is before noon. 82% of Americans feel like
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: their life operates on autopilot to some degree. Mindlessly going
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: through the motions. Now, quick fixes. People have a lot
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: of them. Caffeine is often one. But then there's the
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: other one.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: Meals and snacks. That is the kiss of death.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not heavy. A snack, maybe. That is the.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: Kiss of death to me.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: As soon as I start eating, it's going to be
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: nap time.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you eat anything remotely heavy, night-night.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: So where do you guys stack up? Where do you
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: hit your energy wall?
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, where's the wall?
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: And this is the given day.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: This isn't like a Friday, the week has been long
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: and whatever. This is any given day. Are we talking about,
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: are we talking, do you even make it to 2 o'clock?
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Do you have the morning wall? Do you have the
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: afternoon wall? Do you have both walls?
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: How many walls do you, is it like the hurdles?
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: Any given day. 9, 7, 9, 6, 9, 5, 16, 20.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: And yeah, bonus points if you can tell us your.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: Particular solution for that, because I have yet to find
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: one minus nap.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Nap is the solution.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: I would love to see the nap become socially acceptable
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: in all workplaces.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Look, I will culturally appropriate a sombrero, a cigar, and
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: a siesta.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Like, guys, you can do so much more. You can
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: be so much happier in life if you just.
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: Catch a nap. Get a nap.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And it doesn't have to be a long one.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: Some of you guys can do that 30-minute nap. I
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: can't necessarily do that, but those of you that can,
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: holy cow.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: You can catch a 15- to 30-minute nap, and let
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: me tell you, it will recharge you.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: Why have we not been... This.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Should be a part of everyone's workday.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: I think especially in the South during the summer.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: During the summer, y'all!
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Because that's where I first encountered the siesta.
• 11:12
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Was at summer camp, because right after lunch, you would
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: have rest period.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Which was essentially... From one to three.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: You were down. Yeah, nothing happened. We're not going to
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: schedule anything for it. Don't ask.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: But if you happen to wander off and take it,
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: just figure it out.
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: We're not going to do anything during that time.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: And I love to that. And I carry it on
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: that tradition today.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: Again, the first company to bring this back, no one's
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: going to care about remote work anymore. They'll come into
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: work if you build them a nap room.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: If you give them a door they can shut and
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: then lay their head on their desk, this is the
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: evolution of the modern work experience. Trust us on this.

  Speaker 3: 1620-945-WTAW. I didn't get to this in reasons to celebrate.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: I should have.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: By the way, our phone number is 979-695-1620. 20 years
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: ago today is the official point in history where body
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: wash became the.
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: King of the shower.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: How about that?
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: In 2006, September 2006 was when body wash overtook.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Bar soap I'm trying to remember method when I made
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: the transition from ivory or Irish spring.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: I don't remember a time where I didn't use some
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: type I mean I have you soap obviously like you
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: get well it's the only thing it's there but I've
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: always used body wash always because why which it was
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: available I mean it had it was clearly available back
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: into the 90s I have no idea why it took
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: until 2006 for Americans to finally decide, okay, we can
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: just go to this, as opposed to the disgusting nature
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: of a bar of soap.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: I was raised on a bar of soap. My shower
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: habits were carved in soap. And it was a bar
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: of soap for the longest time. And then I don't
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: think I went straight to body wash. I think I
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: probably started with the three-in-one shampoo stuff.
• 15:36
  Speaker 9: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: The all-in-one.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: The all-in-one.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: Right, right. Because it's like, hey, it's essentially the same thing.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: At some point in time, I just made... I came
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to the realization that soap is soap is soap when
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: it comes to me. And I know that... There's people
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: who are more fastidious and they want to, you know, do,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: you know, specialize soap for this, that, and the other.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's all well and good.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: You've got sensitive skin, do whatever.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, do your thing. Now, the older I get, I
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: do admit now that I do have a body wash.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I do have a shampoo. That's right. And I will occasionally,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: once a week or so, condition.
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: Oh, no, you should take care of your hair.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: If you have it. You should take care of it.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I got to that realization that it might be a
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: non-renewable resource on top of my head.
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: I'm going to.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Take care of it a little better.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: My question is, because now it's 20 years later, do
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: any of y'all still use a bar of soap?
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: Oh, I'm sure there's soap people out there. Who is it?
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Who is the person that's still buying a brick of
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: soap when you could just, I mean, it's a whole litany.
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: Of body washes. It's out there.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: It's going to be high end, low end, regular, like
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: ones that are for dudes, ones that are, you know, for,
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: for not dudes, for the ladies, those are actually quite good.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: What, like who would go through all of that?
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: And then like, okay, yeah, give me this, this bar
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: that's going to sit and slowly just get grosser and
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: grosser and grosser any given day. Who is that person?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Hmm. Well, apparently it's Gary.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: Gary, what do you got?
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Gary's still a bar of soap. Coast. Old habits die hard.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: Coast?
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: Coast. coast coast. That's an old school brand right there.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: Where do you buy coast anymore?
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: That seems like something that should have gone away.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: I'm going to bet that Gary gets it by the
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: big pack at the Costco.
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: Stop it. Marshall Marshall.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Stop it. This was, this was in my mind.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: Marshall. I am not going to dignify this.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: I will. I will. Marshall says I make my own
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: bar soap From Beef Tallow.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: This Beef Tallow thing is getting out of control.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Max Tallow, baby.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: This is getting out of control.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: All right, we'll take some time with this. I'll entertain
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: some other options. 979-695-1620 if you want to shout out
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: your soap.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: Luke, I buy bar soap. Dial makes antibacterial soap. You
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: can't find that in body wash.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: They don't have an antibacterial body wash? I find that
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: hard to believe.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Tucker, you have lit the fuse here. We got a
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: lot of bar soap fans.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: All right, look, we'll take some time.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: Again, if you want to weigh in, feel free to
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: shout out your brand of choice, including Beef Tallow.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Hey, it's good for all kinds of things.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: Beef tallow is good, yeah.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: And, you know, what's really important.
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: There's nothing people aren't using beef tallow for right now.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Beef tallow has a really high smoke point, which means,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: you know, it can take a lot of heat. Yeah. Which,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: when you're as hot as I am.
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: On that note, we'll return in a few minutes.
• 18:42
  Speaker 10: This is Today in Texas History, brought to you by

• 18:48
  Speaker 11: On this day, August the 31st, In 1839, Independence Baptist
• 18:53
  Speaker 11: Church in Independence, Washington County was organized by Reverend Thomas
• 18:59
  Speaker 11: Spragans and a small.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Group of fellow Baptists.
• 19:02
  Speaker 11: The church had strong ties to Baylor University, Baylor Female Department,
• 19:07
  Speaker 11: and Baylor College during the years as these institutions were
• 19:11
  Speaker 11: located in Independence. Margaret Lee Houston was a member of
• 19:16
  Speaker 11: Independence Church. Her husband, Sam Houston, joined Independence Church in
• 19:22
  Speaker 11: 1854 and was baptized the same day by Rufus Burleson.
• 19:27
  Speaker 11: In 1958, the church voted to construct a new building
• 19:31
  Speaker 11: at its present location. This building was destroyed by fire
• 19:34
  Speaker 11: in 1872. Some of the old walls remain, and the
• 19:38
  Speaker 11: church was rebuilt in the same year. Independence Church remains
• 19:43
  Speaker 11: a regularly constituted Baptist church in cooperation with the Baptist
• 19:48
  Speaker 11: General Convention of Texas. It has also been designated a
• 19:52
  Speaker 11: Texas Baptist Historical Center. Though the current building dates back
• 19:57
  Speaker 11: only to 1872, the pew in which Sam Houston sat
• 20:01
  Speaker 11: has been preserved and is marked so that visitors can
• 20:05
  Speaker 11: see it.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: I bet you didn't know that.

• 22:21
  Speaker 3: Bruce texts in a very useful image saying it looks
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: like they got the utility truck staged at Westward Ho
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: for that oversized load, which will be.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: Very visible yeah it's going to.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Be very visible you won't miss it and by the
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: way going all the way after rob i have done
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: all kinds of research and i cannot figure out what
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: westward hoe is right i mean you have all kinds
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: of different names for things on highways usually you can
• 22:48

  Speaker 3: Nothing uh now on to weather uh yeah sunny and
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: hot today high near 100 degrees 106 for the heat

• 23:07
  Speaker 3: to about a 60% chance of rain Wednesday, Thursday.
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: And again, this is all very theoretical.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: They're dialing this in.
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: It's really theoretical.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Things sort of just popped up over the weekend.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: As it sits right now, you might get a nice...

  Speaker 3: today or three more flights.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Three, I think. Not sure.
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: That'll dial it in a little.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: Bit more around noon and the afternoon and then before
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: we all go to bed. And hopefully, again, just crossing

  Speaker 15: a lot of things. For years, he was the loudest
• 26:50
  Speaker 15: AI optimist in the room, promising cures and prosperity. Climate
• 26:54
  Speaker 15: change was going to be the world's top priority until

  Speaker 15: span would be solved within two years.
• 27:02
  Speaker 7: Yeah, right.
• 27:03
  Speaker 15: He wanted rich countries on 100% synthetic beef with new

  Speaker 1: often wondered, and I've not... I've not been able to
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: find an answer. Right. As this giant load is moving through,
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: we received pictures near the Westward Ho exit, and I've
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: always asked, how did that happen?
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: How did we get Westward Ho?
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: What is Westward Ho?
• 39:55
  Speaker 17: Right.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: So Glenda texted in. She said, Westward Ho was a
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: name picked out by my husband. That's it. What? So
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: I responded, Glenda, please elaborate.
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: I would like to know.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: Many years ago, our roads were caliche, and my husband
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: worked with the landowners and the county commissioner getting our
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: roads upgraded. The county commissioner allowed my husband and I
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: to name our roads. We named our road that we
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: live on after my husband's great-great-grandfather, who was a Potawatomi
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: Indian chief.
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: And they picked out Westward Ho for that road.
• 40:31
  Speaker 4: And that's how we got there.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: Man, thank you for that knowledge.
• 40:36
  Speaker 4: Thank you for that knowledge. What a great story, and
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: holy cow.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: Terry texts in, if the soap is made in Arkansas,
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: then there shouldn't be a shortage in supply due to
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: overuse in Arkansas. Terry, no, we're not talking about toothpaste, Terry.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: We're talking about soap, okay?
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: They at least know how to bathe.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: All right, so I wanted to change gears because I
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: thought that I had heard every kind of competition that
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: there was out there, but I am shown this story
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: from Wisconsin. It's, you know, end of the summer, starting
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: to turn into fall festival season and, uh, you know,
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: state fair season for everyone up in that part of
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: the country.
• 41:17
  Speaker 4: You ever heard a cow chip throwing?
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: Have you?
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah. Chip Junkins. It was a deal back in
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: my day.
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: Chip just had to roll in and talk about this.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: Wait a minute. Do you ever go to the store?
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: It's like, He's incredulous that you could go to the
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: store and get a bar of soap somewhere.
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: I don't know what kind of bar of soap.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: Incredulous.
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: They're everywhere.
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: You cannot not see them.
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: I'm not talking about hand soap, Chip.
• 41:42
  Speaker 17: I see hand soap.
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: I know what you're talking about.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about a bar. He's so focused on body
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: wash and not shampoo and conditioner. Why would I ever
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: look for it? But besides that, it's so much cheaper.
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: It's significantly cheaper. Significantly cheaper. Yeah, but it's an inferior product.
• 41:57
  Speaker 17: Oh, my gosh.
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: It's an inferior product.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: We've established this already, but Chip, you walking in, being
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: from the sports talk station here, this was just brought
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: up as you were walking in.
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, something else I'm incredulous about.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Tucker is all enthralled that in Wisconsin, they have cow
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: chip chunking contest, and he's never heard of that before. Okay.
• 42:17
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: That's sad in itself. Do you ever get out of
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: your house?
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: Not a time, brother.
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm flipping last night. Do you know there's pillow
• 42:27

  Speaker 1: Pillows. Yeah, and I saw the pillow fighting stuff. Tried
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: to go for a.
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: Knockout with a pillow.
• 42:39
  Speaker 14: No, they're not knocking anybody out there.
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: They're pillows. But you're still swinging for the fences.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: Oh, I knocked somebody out with a pillow.
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: You're still swinging for the fences with the pillows.
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: What was in the pillow? It was a very, very old,
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: very dense feather pillow.
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it kind of gets all packed down in there.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: Hey, you threw a few bars of soap in that pillow. Oh, yeah.
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: You got yourself a weapon there.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, Chip Howard, Sports Talk, next door.
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: I want to go back to this. So explain cow
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: chip chunking.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, it's just how far can you throw
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: a cow chip? And you want the ones that are solidified,
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: dried just enough because they still have some weight.
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: So you've done this.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, not officially. I wasn't in a competition.
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: But you just, you decided to see.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: We threw them at each other as kids.
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: See, that's taking it up a notch.
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: So there is a cow chip throw festival, which is
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: happening this weekend in Wisconsin. Activities featuring the World Championship
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: of Cow Chip Throwing, a parade, live events, arts, crafts fair,
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: 5K and 10K.
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: And yes, there are rules to this.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: And like Will mentioned, you want to go dry, apparently.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you want to dry, but still have some
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: weight to it.
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: Two chips for each contestant. You're going to throw two.
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: Longest one wins. And if it explodes on impact, the
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: piece that goes the furthest wins. That is how you
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: determine your winner. Men's and women's divisions. It's obviously, and
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: both must be 16 years or older and chips must
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: be at least six inches in diameter.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking that you want to find the ones that
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: are kind of shaped like a skipping stone or Frisbee.
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: You want some aerodynamics, spin it. You want to get
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: a little spin on it.
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: Here's another interesting side note. They have to select their
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: chips differently. from the wagon load provided by the official
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: Meadow Muffin Committee.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: You want a consistent product across all of your competitors.
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: You don't want them to be able to go out
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: and find their own.
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: You don't want the chip to be the difference in
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: a competition of skill like this.
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: I just, how have I never seen one of these, man?
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: How have I never, never encountered one?
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: You're a little bougie.
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: You seem like I must be.
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: Not in my liquid soap. But, yeah, so also gloves
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: not allowed.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to tough it out. Yeah, you got
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: to tough it out. You got to use a bar
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: of soap afterwards to wash your hands.
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: And if you alter or shape chips in any way
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: from the wagon, that will result in a 25-foot penalty.
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: Dude, that's serious. That's all of it, man. I can't
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: imagine throwing one more than 25 feet. What is the record,
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: by the way? I.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: They don't tell me what the world record for chip
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: throwing is, but I'm going to guess.
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: How far can you throw a baseball? Well, no, that's
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: not going to be the same thing. It's more dense.
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: The wind is going to be your enemy probably with this,
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: I would assume.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: I'll just ask the AI.
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: All right. What does AI tell us?
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: The official Guinness World Record for the farthest cow patty toss.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: 266 feet. 266 feet. That is nearly a football field.
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: 70 yards.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: 81.1 meters.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: That is almost the length of a football field that
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: you were able to.
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: Jump that thing.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, I can't throw something that's designed to be
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: thrown that far.
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: Absolutely incredible. Yeah, we'll take a break. We'll be back
• 46:23
  Speaker 4: right after this on the Info Mania.
• 46:24

  Speaker 10: Here's Brad Beard of Intercon.
• 47:57
  Speaker 9: I was in a store and heard a child tell
• 47:59
  Speaker 9: her mother, this one must be better because it costs more.
• 48:01
  Speaker 9: What a naive concept. Do adults sometimes fall into a
• 48:04
  Speaker 9: similar trap? Recently, I've had customers tell me they have
• 48:06
  Speaker 9: received a competitor's bid, which was five to 10 times
• 48:09
  Speaker 9: as expensive as Intercon's quote for new windows. Are they
• 48:12
  Speaker 9: really getting the right value proposition? Fortunately, Energy Star certification
• 48:16
  Speaker 9: provides a set of uniform metrics to quickly compare the
• 48:18
  Speaker 9: thermal efficiency of windows. Windows have three basic components, frame material,
• 48:23
  Speaker 9: insulated glass, and balance mechanisms. How reliable is each component
• 48:26
  Speaker 9: and are costs associated with a warranty claim? Finally, the
• 48:29
  Speaker 9: experience of the installers can make a huge difference in
• 48:31
  Speaker 9: the final product. Do they install windows for a living
• 48:33
  Speaker 9: or are they subcontracted for the day? Intercon sells ENERGY
• 48:37
  Speaker 9: STAR certified windows with industry-leading warranties installed by our own
• 48:40
  Speaker 9: full-time employees. Why pay more if you can get everything
• 48:43
  Speaker 9: you need at a fair price from a locally owned business?

• 49:54
  Speaker 4: 1620-945-WTAW. Good morning. It's Monday. We are so glad you
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: are here.
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: And it's going to be the hottest you are going
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: to see it get this week. Thank goodness for that.
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: And it's not going to have anything to do with
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: a cold front. It's the other kind of front, the
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: one coming from the Gulf. It's going to save us
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: at least a little bit, at least on the temperatures. Now,
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: the rain side, we're going to find out. 40% chance
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: tomorrow and 50%, 60% chance Wednesday. Wednesday and Thursday are
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: supposed to be our best chances of rain, but we
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: do get chances of rain all the way through Saturday.
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so apparently after Eduardo moves through, it kind of
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: opens up the door to the sea breeze front that
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: used to happen to us on occasion before August.
• 50:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: And so that's what's going to happen there.
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: So with that said, keep an eye on the weather.
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: But you could get some rain. And depending on where
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: you are, you could get a lot of rain. And,
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: you know, we'll start dialing this thing in later on today,
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: I'm sure. Weather is brought to you by United Roofing
• 50:49
  Speaker 3: and Sheet Metal, home of the Duralast Roof System, the
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: world's best roof. Give them a call, 268-ROOF, or go
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: to unitedroofingpros.com. Text message from an unnamed listener. Cow chips
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: were the best for wars as a kid on the farm,
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: and there was no place better than a fresh patty.
• 51:04
  Speaker 4: To place a firecracker.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: Can confirm.
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: Just a landmine right there.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: Take out everybody.
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: The shrapnel is just horrible.
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: And I've gotten a lot of people telling me that
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: I'm clearly, and they agree, that I'm clearly too bougie.
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: For my own good.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: When it comes to the liquid soap stuff.
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: When it comes to the liquid soaps. Because, like, if
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: I was, it's just a thing. Maybe it's true, maybe
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: it's not. I just feel like that's the better product.
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: I have no idea why you would go backwards.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: We have a large supply of favorite fans who are
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: into the bar soaps.
• 51:36
  Speaker 4: We're so into the bar soaps.
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: In fact, we don't even have just favorite fans. Apparently,
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: we have creators of bar soap.
• 51:43
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 51:44
  Speaker 10: Here.
• 51:44
  Speaker 7: Here.
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: No, I'm sure we have. I mean, we had tallow guy.
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about making your own. I'm talking about,
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: and we mentioned a product that was sent to us earlier,
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: the Bombshell Suds.
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: Out of Arkansas. That's right. Which is a veteran-owned company.
• 51:58
  Speaker 4: We have a local soap? Is that what you're telling me?
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: Chris Thompson Tech's in.
• 52:04
  Speaker 12: Okay.
• 52:04
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: I own a local soap company called Cleaner, K-L-E-N-R, and
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: it's got one of those little things over the E, but.
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: Don't... Creative spelling. We get it.
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: I understand. And a friend of mine just said, y'all,
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: we're talking about soap on the radio, and I should
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: reach out. Green Beret, veteran-owned, and we make the cleanest
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: men's products, all natural, no synthetic fragrances, and we use
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: a high concentration of organic fragrance. ingredients.

• 52:31
  Speaker 4: I am pulling up the website right now as well.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you, it is, it's cool.
• 52:36
  Speaker 5: This is, uh.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: They have not just the soaps.
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: This is high, this is high end.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: Their flagship product is the bar soap. However, they have
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: got pomades.
• 52:44
  Speaker 8: They.
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: They've got beard oils. They have deodorants, accessories, and merchandise.
• 52:50
  Speaker 4: I'm actually clicking on their merch.
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: The merch for this is, you know how much I love.
• 52:55
  Speaker 4: A good t-shirt.
• 52:56
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: And a t-shirt with a bear holding a spear on
• 53:01
  Speaker 4: the back is always.
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: That's right up your alley.
• 53:03
  Speaker 4: Also, some very nice trucker hats, too, man.
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 53:07
  Speaker 4: Look at you guys coming through.
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: So I will further tell you, as long as we're plugging,
• 53:14
  Speaker 3: that according to the Google. you can find these guys
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: in the Southwood Center. In Kroger.
• 53:21
  Speaker 4: Well, in Kroger, but they actually do. It looks like
• 53:23
  Speaker 4: there is a store.
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: A storefront.
• 53:25
  Speaker 4: There is a storefront in College Station.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: I'm going to have to investigate.
• 53:28
  Speaker 4: Everything else like that, and it actually looks very.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Very cool. I'm just about out of my current dial
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: liquid soap.
• 53:33
  Speaker 4: Are you almost out of your pomade? Do you still
• 53:36
  Speaker 4: have a pomade?
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: I use a pomade.
• 53:38
  Speaker 4: What is a pomade?
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: It's a hair product that's not as stiff as hair gel.
• 53:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: It's more like a wax sort of product, maybe. You know,
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: soft wax.
• 53:49
  Speaker 17: Okay, all right.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: That's what a pomade is.
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: All right, well, dude, thank you for sharing that with us, Chris.
• 53:53
  Speaker 3: And I look forward to checking that out.
• 53:57
  Speaker 4: If that gets me on the... If that gets me...
• 54:00
  Speaker 4: Off of the body wash, then I will be the
• 54:04
  Speaker 4: first to share it.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, early in the show, we started talking about
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: people who were, what is that maxing thing they were called?
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: The scent maxing? The pheromone maxing?
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: Pheromone maxing.
• 54:13
  Speaker 3: So they're encouraging kids don't want to take showers anymore
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: because they think their pheromones are going to get them girls.
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: We have taken our show today from that to plugging
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: a great local soap product.
• 54:24
  Speaker 4: Hey, you know, Soap Local.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: We have turned the page. Turned the corner.
• 54:30
  Speaker 4: Hashtag Soap Local. We had Drink Local on Friday.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you, man.
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: Soap Local.
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: We got some great people doing some great things around here.
• 54:39
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you. Best part of doing a radio show.
• 54:43
  Speaker 11: Because.
• 54:44
  Speaker 4: We are not that interesting.
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: People are naming roads.
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: You people have some outstanding stories.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: People are sending us pictures of giant equipment moving down
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: the highway.
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: Very slowly, by the way. Moving very slowly. Oh, we
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: should mention that one more time for those of you.
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: You join us in progress.
• 55:02
  Speaker 4: I suspect. There is a house. There is a small.
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: It's not a house. No, I'm saying house size. It
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: looks like a Skylab.
• 55:11
  Speaker 16: Yes.
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: Yes, it looks like something that should be launched into
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: space and orbiting around the Earth for years.
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: And it's probably moving through Brazos County on its way
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: to Robertson County now.
• 55:20
  Speaker 4: There's no way it's in Brazos County yet.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: They were at the Westward Ho trying to get everything
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: set up for it. That's how we got to Westward Ho.
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: Well, just know you're going to be running into some
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: delays possible if you're heading north on Highway 6 throughout
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: the day.
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: And I don't know where it's turning off.
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: No idea.
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: But, yeah, if you want to see pictures of this thing,
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: go to our Facebook page, WTAW. Some of you guys
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: were good enough to send those in. Other than that,
• 55:44
