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

0:02
Speaker 1: Good morning from the WTAW Newsroom, I'm Will Welch. The
0:07
Speaker 1: man accused in a deadly shooting in Bryan Tuesday evening
0:10
Speaker 1: has turned himself in to Bryan Police. 20-year-old Cameron Deshaun
0:14
Speaker 1: Scott allegedly shot 23-year-old Jalen Walter after an argument in
0:18
Speaker 1: the North Point Business Park. Scott surrendered himself to authorities
0:21
Speaker 1: and has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
0:24
Speaker 1: He is being held on $ 300, 000 bond. A man is
0:28
Speaker 1: headed to prison for five years for domestic violence and
0:31
Speaker 1: repeatedly violating protective orders. A Brazos County grand jury handed
0:35
Speaker 1: down the sentence against 32-year-old Ronnie Wayne Rice Jr. Rice
0:39
Speaker 1: assaulted his ex-girlfriend in 2024, and she was granted a
0:43
Speaker 1: restraining order. He then violated that order twice within a
0:46
Speaker 1: month and was charged with continuous violation of bond conditions.
0:50
Speaker 1: Rice has a lengthy criminal history dating back to 2011,
0:53
Speaker 1: when he was 17 and first arrested for family violence assault.
0:57
Speaker 1: He has been booked into the Brazos County Jail 20
1:00
Speaker 1: times since then. Five of those arrests were for domestic violence.
1:04
Speaker 1: Texas could face changes to its growing data center industry
1:08
Speaker 1: as the state prepares for a new governor and potential regulations.
1:12
Speaker 1: UT Austin energy researcher Michael Weber says a short pause
1:16
Speaker 1: could help communities find common ground, but a longer halt
1:19
Speaker 1: may hurt the U.S. in its AI competition with China.
1:23
Speaker 1: Uncertainty surrounding a potential construction pause could make developers reconsider
1:27
Speaker 1: building in Texas.
1:29
Speaker 2: I think that a moratorium or the threat of a
1:31
Speaker 2: moratorium is enough.
1:32
Speaker 1: To get the developers to consider other states. They're in
1:35
Speaker 1: a race and they want speed to power. And one
1:37
Speaker 1: of the reasons why they.
1:37
Speaker 3: Like Texas is because they can move quickly here.
1:40
Speaker 1: So that's the concern I have.
1:42
Speaker 4: And that's why I think it's important not to just
1:43
Speaker 4: have a moratorium, but instead to have a conversation and
1:46
Speaker 4: a negotiation.
1:47
Speaker 1: Governor-elect Tana Hossa has called for a temporary moratorium on
1:50
Speaker 1: data center construction. until lawmakers can give local communities more control.
1:55
Speaker 1: Despite a possible slowdown, many analysts believe Texas could still
1:59
Speaker 1: become the nation's largest data center market. Voters throughout Texas
2:03
Speaker 1: shot down school bond propositions and district tax rate changes
2:07
Speaker 1: on Tuesday night.
2:09
Speaker 5: They pretty unanimously said, we're tired of higher property taxes.
2:12
Speaker 6: Because we can barely afford to make ends meet.
2:15
Speaker 1: Andrew McVeigh with Texans for Fiscal Responsibility said, says people
2:19
Speaker 1: are being nickel-and-dimed by school districts, and they're getting more
2:22
Speaker 1: informed about what is on the ballot. But he suspects
2:25
Speaker 1: that some of these districts will push bigger bond packages
2:29
Speaker 1: in the future. Here locally, Vader proposals failed in Bryan
2:32
Speaker 1: and Navasota ISD. The state's Railroad Commission is no longer
2:37
Speaker 1: solidly conservative.
2:39
Speaker 7: Part of this week's blue tsunami is the first Democrat
2:42
Speaker 7: elected to the three-member commission, which regulates the oil and
2:45
Speaker 7: gas industry. Todd Staples, who heads the Texas Oil and
2:47
Speaker 7: Gas Association, says they can work with people of both parties.
2:51
Speaker 1: Our industry is on the forefront of delivering cleaner, better,
2:55
Speaker 1: stronger energy already.
2:57
Speaker 7: Crude oil prices plunged after Election Day. Some traders are
3:00
Speaker 7: betting that the GOP losses will force President Trump to
3:03
Speaker 7: make a deal to end the war in Iran. In
3:05
Speaker 7: San Antonio, Michael Board, TSN News.
3:08
Speaker 1: More news on the way at 6.30 or anytime at WTAW.com.

Speaker 8: Every game day tailgate has its goats. The greatest of
3:21
Speaker 8: all briskets. The greatest of all cornhole shots. The greatest
3:25
Speaker 8: of all cooler holes. But the Toyota trucks that carry
3:27
Speaker 8: the whole tailgate, now that's the real goat.
3:31
Speaker 1: Sorry, buddy.
3:32

3:35
Speaker 1: You're pretty great, too.

3:48
Speaker 8: game day tailgate has its goats. The greatest of all briskets.
3:52
Speaker 8: The greatest of all cornhole shots. The greatest of all
3:55
Speaker 8: cooler holes. But the Toyota trucks that carry the whole tailgate,
3:59
Speaker 8: now that's the real goat.
4:01

4:18
Speaker 6: 16, 20, 94, 5, WTAW, accidentally playing commercials, sleeping late,
4:22
Speaker 6: doing all the usual things.
4:23
Speaker 1: I'd made it, though. That's nice.
4:25
Speaker 6: There's nothing worse. I abandoned my own system.
4:29
Speaker 1: Did you?
4:29
Speaker 11: Yeah, I did.
4:30
Speaker 1: If you've got a system, you've got to stick to it.
4:32
Speaker 6: Yeah, but the system that I have is you turn
4:35
Speaker 6: on your phone alarms. You can have phone alarms. That's fine.
4:40
Speaker 6: But it's contingent on having an across-the-room, plug-in, old-school alarm clock.
4:48
Speaker 6: Like an old school alarm clock. And believe it or not,
4:53
Speaker 6: one I have broke. And then I was just like,
4:56
Speaker 6: I'll find one eventually. And honestly, I don't know where
5:00
Speaker 6: I'm going to buy one. Probably just going to have
5:01
Speaker 6: to Amazon it.
5:02
Speaker 1: Going to have to Amazon it. Because where would you.
5:04
Speaker 6: When was the last time you actually saw an alarm,
5:06
Speaker 6: like an alarm clock? Because would Best Buy have them?
5:09
Speaker 1: I mean, probably... Yeah, I don't know. What kind of
5:13
Speaker 1: old school alarm clock are you talking about? The big
5:15
Speaker 1: bin where you had to wind it up? Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
5:19
Speaker 6: I'm talking about when I think old, like classic alarm clock,
5:23
Speaker 6: I'm talking like a square, a rectangular face, usually very
5:27
Speaker 6: large red blinking lights at you that just makes that.
5:33
Speaker 6: I can't do it and I'm not going to attempt,
5:35
Speaker 6: but we know the sound. It's not a pleasing little
5:38
Speaker 6: phone alarm clock. It's just that one screeching tone over
5:42
Speaker 6: and over again until you.
5:44
Speaker 1: Turned it off.
5:46
Speaker 6: And I don't think I've seen... Walmart is always a
5:48
Speaker 6: safe bet, but.
5:50
Speaker 1: Where would I look? You know where I would look?
5:52
Speaker 1: Thrift stores.
5:54
Speaker 6: You know what?
5:55
Speaker 1: Go to a Goodwill.
5:56
Speaker 6: That is a good point. Go to a Goodwill. Whenever
5:59
Speaker 6: you need something you haven't seen in a while, it
6:02
Speaker 6: might be there. And honestly, the biggest surprise about this
6:06
Speaker 6: whole thing is that alarm clock broke. I thought those
6:09
Speaker 6: things would survive. I thought those things would survive a
6:11
Speaker 6: nuclear attack.
6:12
Speaker 1: Well, it's a modern manufacturer though, which means planned obsolescence.
6:17
Speaker 1: You could have one from 87, probably still working.
6:21
Speaker 6: Exactly. What was it? They put a 40 here. Yo,
6:24
Speaker 6: in 40 years, we wanted the guy to spend another
6:26
Speaker 6: 12 bucks. That's what we're, we have ramped that up.
6:29
Speaker 1: Way, way up.
6:30
Speaker 6: Impressively. Um, did you see, uh, if I say who
6:35
Speaker 6: is the, uh, The incoming Texas Attorney General. Do you
6:39
Speaker 6: even know his name? I didn't yesterday. This is how
6:43
Speaker 6: I stumbled upon it.
6:43
Speaker 1: I kind of did, but I can't remember it off
6:45
Speaker 1: the top of my head.
6:47
Speaker 6: It's Nathan Johnson. He beat Mays Middleton, was the guy
6:51
Speaker 6: who was the Republican. Everyone's kind of saying, okay, it's
6:53
Speaker 6: going to be Mays Middleton. He's going to be the
6:54
Speaker 6: next one. No, it's Nathan Johnson. Do you know what
6:58
Speaker 6: Nathan Johnson's previous career was?
7:01
Speaker 1: I do, as a matter of fact.
7:02
Speaker 6: Tell them, this is wild.
7:04
Speaker 1: So Nathan Johnson apparently scored the music. for what was
7:10
Speaker 1: the dragon dragon ball z like 60 of them he's.
7:14
Speaker 6: The guy that did the music for dragon ball z the.
7:19
Speaker 2: 2000s i wrote uh the musical scores front wall to
7:23
Speaker 2: wall of 67 episodes of dragon ball z and and
7:26
Speaker 2: five of the movies it was a lot of fun
7:28
Speaker 2: i had a one-year-old at the time and i remember
7:30
Speaker 2: him sitting on my knee and stuff blowing up he's
7:32
Speaker 2: like oh He just thought it was super cool. And
7:36
Speaker 2: even then, it just got me street cred with my
7:38
Speaker 2: kids' friends, and it gave me a creative outlet and
7:41
Speaker 2: a cultural connection that very few people had the.
7:44
Speaker 6: Opportunity to have. He was a lawyer at this time,
7:49
Speaker 6: and he was like, okay, I'm just going to compose
7:51
Speaker 6: all the music for this anime franchise.
7:55
Speaker 1: He got the gig almost by accident.
7:57
Speaker 6: Just because, yeah.
7:58
Speaker 1: He was connecting Funimation executives, right? And then They said, Hey,
8:03
Speaker 1: why don't you come in and write some background music
8:05
Speaker 1: tailored for American broadcast standards? Okay. Why not?
8:11
Speaker 6: Yeah, sure, man. I can do that.
8:13
Speaker 1: Why not?
8:13
Speaker 6: We're going to have to get, and when I was
8:15
Speaker 6: reading this, I thought to myself, my God, we're going
8:19
Speaker 6: to have to get actual bios on everybody.
8:23
Speaker 12: I don't know.
8:24
Speaker 6: I don't know any of them. Like you, you, you know,
8:26
Speaker 6: you just get over years, you kind of get to
8:28
Speaker 6: at least know where someone came from. Like, I'll give
8:31
Speaker 6: you Dan Patrick as an instance. I know where Dan
8:33
Speaker 6: Patrick came from. Dan Patrick came from the East Coast,
8:37
Speaker 6: and he was a sports guy. Then he did sports
8:40
Speaker 6: on TV. Then he didn't do sports on TV, and
8:43
Speaker 6: he started a political talk show in the city of Houston.
8:47
Speaker 6: Big success. Then he ran for politics. But I got
8:51
Speaker 6: that over 20 years. Over 20 years.
8:55
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you what any of these people do.
8:59
Speaker 6: We're going to have to at least get someone to
9:00
Speaker 6: update the Wikipedia pages.
9:02
Speaker 1: Sure. That would be nice. Or better yet, guys, open invitation.
9:05
Speaker 1: Come on into the studio.
9:07
Speaker 6: Wouldn't that be dope?
9:08
Speaker 10: Yeah.

Speaker 1: A little get to know you sort of thing.
9:10
Speaker 6: That actually might be great. Like, I wonder if we

11:08
Speaker 6: 1620-945-WTAW. Will's over here looking for the exact tone, the
11:14
Speaker 6: sound of my nightmares, which is... The old 20 year
11:20
Speaker 6: old alarm clock.
11:20
Speaker 1: See, that's what you call the old alarm. I call
11:22
Speaker 1: it the old. By the way, Mike texted and said
11:24
Speaker 1: Walmart does have them with picture frames. They're in picture frames.
11:28
Speaker 1: I guess so.
11:29
Speaker 6: That's where you go.
11:30
Speaker 1: All right.
11:31
Speaker 10: All right.
11:32
Speaker 1: So now we know.
11:33
Speaker 6: Thank you, Mike.
11:33
Speaker 16: Right.
11:33
Speaker 1: So you're talking about the alarm that you're talking about.
11:37
Speaker 17: Yeah.
11:37
Speaker 1: Is more like this, right? Hit me. Yeah, that's the one.
11:44
Speaker 6: That's the noise.
11:45
Speaker 1: That is an old alarm clock. That is an old
11:48
Speaker 1: alarm clock. The ones that I'm referring to, and I'll
11:51
Speaker 1: never forget my grandparents, my great aunts, they all had
11:54
Speaker 1: ones that sounded like this. I've heard that before. Yeah,
12:02
Speaker 1: that'll get you up, man.
12:03
Speaker 6: That will, but I don't know which is, again, I
12:06
Speaker 6: think that is a softer version of it. I don't
12:09
Speaker 6: think it really, because when I remember hearing it, it
12:10
Speaker 6: was a way louder than that. And it might have
12:13
Speaker 6: been because I was a tiny child, but I remember
12:17
Speaker 6: a very loud alarm clock that my parents used that
12:20
Speaker 6: sounded like that. Now, to me, I don't care what that's... Here,
12:23
Speaker 6: play the one from my generation again. I don't know
12:30
Speaker 6: that the screams of children would wake me up faster
12:34
Speaker 6: than that. I have no idea why.
12:36
Speaker 1: It's a dandy.
12:37
Speaker 6: That gives me a, like, I lock up when I
12:40
Speaker 6: hear that.
12:40
Speaker 1: My only issue.
12:41
Speaker 6: That is the worst sound on the planet.
12:42
Speaker 1: My only issue with those, and it goes back to
12:44
Speaker 1: my neuroses involving prepping.
12:47
Speaker 6: Yeah.
12:48
Speaker 1: Those are electric, and some of them have the battery
12:51
Speaker 1: backups and things like that.
12:52
Speaker 6: That'll do it, yeah.
12:54
Speaker 1: But the one that Great Aunt Bernie's had.
12:57
Speaker 6: Oh, that was, yeah.
12:59
Speaker 1: Yeah and and also those were pretty durable they were
13:03
Speaker 1: metal outer shell because they were the right size to
13:07
Speaker 1: pick up and and like yeet across.
13:09
Speaker 6: The room and many people would yeah you would you
13:11
Speaker 6: would the only way to disable those is you had
13:13
Speaker 6: to have an actual hammer like you had to have
13:16
Speaker 6: a a mallet cartoons taught us that yes they did
13:19
Speaker 6: yes they did that's part of their enduring legacy my
13:24
Speaker 6: friends all right let's get to reason to celebrate for
13:26
Speaker 6: today um It's the 6th of November at this point, 2026. Congratulations,
13:33
Speaker 6: it's basketball day.
13:36
Speaker 1: Basketball day.
13:36
Speaker 6: Depending on who you talk to, it's either the second
13:38
Speaker 6: or third most popular sport in the United States of
13:40
Speaker 6: America at this point. I would say fourth because college
13:43
Speaker 6: football and NFL count as two for me.
13:45
Speaker 1: I think so too.
13:46
Speaker 6: But if I had to put one behind that, for me,
13:49
Speaker 6: it's basketball. For others, it's baseball.
13:52
Speaker 1: Both of which are off their peak, right, in basketball.
13:57
Speaker 1: And certainly, I would think, falling down the charts slowly.
14:00
Speaker 6: That's the thing. Baseball, I say that, but the game
14:05
Speaker 6: itself actually makes infinitely more money than it did when
14:07
Speaker 6: I would consider peak NBA. And it's because it's a
14:11
Speaker 6: global game and everything else and whatever, whatever. But yeah,
14:15
Speaker 6: it just does not, it doesn't seem to, this might
14:17
Speaker 6: be the same thing with people saying SNL quit being
14:20
Speaker 6: funny when, you know? It's like, oh, SNL hasn't been
14:22
Speaker 6: funny since the 90s. Well, everyone kind of said people
14:26
Speaker 6: said that in the 70s, too. It's just part of
14:28
Speaker 6: growing old. You cease finding Saturday Night Live funny and
14:31
Speaker 6: you cease enjoying the game of basketball and occasionally baseball.
14:36
Speaker 6: But I don't know.
14:37
Speaker 1: There's a lot of old timers that like the baseball.
14:39
Speaker 6: It seems like you get more into baseball.
14:42
Speaker 1: I think I think so, because there was a generation
14:44
Speaker 1: that grew up with that as the sport that you
14:46
Speaker 1: could listen to.
14:47
Speaker 6: That's right.
14:48
Speaker 1: Multiple times, you know. And it was the old school stuff,
14:51
Speaker 1: the baseball commentators.
14:52
Speaker 6: Oh, man, it was awesome. Yeah, listening to a game
14:54
Speaker 6: on the radio. That's the way it was done. Fountain
14:57
Speaker 6: pen day today. Do you own a fountain pen? I
15:00
Speaker 6: probably have owned.
15:02
Speaker 1: A fountain pen, but I've never. They're just so cumbersome.
15:05
Speaker 6: It's just, like, what am I going to do? If
15:08
Speaker 6: you have that many documents that you're going to sign
15:10
Speaker 6: that you need a fountain pen to do it, I'm
15:12
Speaker 6: assuming you have enough wealth. that it just doesn't even
15:15
Speaker 6: matter anymore. Maybe, you know, I'm sure you got to
15:18
Speaker 6: spend it on something.
15:19
Speaker 1: I guess the calligraphers. Oh, calligraphers.

15:44
Speaker 6: and college football. And I don't know.
15:47
Speaker 12: Sure.
15:47
Speaker 6: Good luck if you can. If you even have a jersey.
15:49
Speaker 6: I haven't I haven't had jerseys.
15:51
Speaker 1: I own a couple of jerseys. They were both gifts
15:55
Speaker 1: because I I'm. Years ago, decided I was no longer
15:59
Speaker 1: an NFL fan.
16:00
Speaker 18: Yeah.
16:00
Speaker 1: So I didn't have NFL jerseys. I really didn't gravitate
16:03
Speaker 1: towards college jerseys either for a couple reasons. Number one,
16:06
Speaker 1: I don't find them comfortable.
16:09
Speaker 6: They don't look particularly, you know, I mean, on the youth.
16:14
Speaker 14: Yeah.
16:14
Speaker 1: The youth can pull them off. Once you get a
16:18
Speaker 1: 56-year-old dude wearing a jersey.
16:19
Speaker 6: No one's fooled. No one's fooled. I'm not going to
16:24
Speaker 6: run into the game.
16:26
Speaker 15: No.
16:26
Speaker 6: You're not going to want me to run into the game.
16:28
Speaker 1: Maybe for one play. That's it.
16:32
Speaker 6: Nachos day as well.
16:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was about to say, you're burying the lead there.
16:36
Speaker 6: No, I was leaving it for the end. Nachos. Obviously,
16:40
Speaker 6: I would say if you're looking for some fine nachos today,
16:44
Speaker 6: Bubba's 33 has been, as far as the newer places
16:48
Speaker 6: with nachos, I think is in the lead in the community.

Speaker 6: But the best nachos I've had in this community.
16:53
Speaker 1: The kettle. Really?
16:55
Speaker 12: Yeah.
16:56
Speaker 1: I am not.
16:57
Speaker 6: Go tell me I'm wrong.
16:58

Speaker 6: you're surprised by them?
17:07
Speaker 1: No, I just I don't. I don't go someplace going.
17:10
Speaker 1: I just don't crave nachos.
17:12
Speaker 6: See, it's a real once-in-a-while thing for me.
17:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll eat nachos. It's a once-in-a-while. I'll enjoy nachos.
17:18
Speaker 1: I want a plate. And I'm not alone. I'm not
17:20
Speaker 1: alone on that.

17:50
Speaker 6: Lamar Odom actually just started an OnlyFans because he wants
17:53

Speaker 12: He should.
17:59

19:00
Speaker 1: still new in my book. Rest in peace, Patrick Stewart.

Speaker 1: Frey was born on this date in 1948. The Eagles.
20:28

Speaker 1: was Dr. Zachary Smith on the OG team. Lost in Space.
20:36
Speaker 6: Nice.
20:37
Speaker 1: He was one of the first characters that I really
20:40
Speaker 1: identified quickly as evil, right? He just looked it. He
20:44
Speaker 1: was an easy bad guy to pick out.
20:46
Speaker 19: Of a lot.
20:46
Speaker 1: He was. James Naismith, as we've mentioned, 1861, invented basketball
20:51
Speaker 1: in 1891. Father of the game. Anton Joseph Sachs, who
20:55
Speaker 1: we mentioned as well, born on this date in 1814.

Speaker 1: And finally today, real American hero. Pat Tillman was born
21:03
Speaker 1: on this date in 1976, the ex-NFL player who was
21:07
Speaker 1: so struck by the September 11 attacks that he left

Speaker 1: by friendly fire in Afghanistan in April of 2004.
21:17
Speaker 6: So, second game of this year, red, white, and blue out.
21:22
Speaker 1: Arizona State.
21:25
Speaker 6: The most common jersey that you will still see from
21:28
Speaker 6: Arizona State fans is is still, to this day, the
21:32
Speaker 6: Pat Tillman jersey.
21:33
Speaker 1: I saw a lot of them.
21:34
Speaker 6: By about a five-to-one ratio.
21:36
Speaker 1: And I did see, I believe, a push from Ags
21:38
Speaker 1: on the socials that we specifically honored Tillman during that game.
21:42
Speaker 6: I don't think it happened. I don't think it happened,
21:45
Speaker 6: but that would have been a pretty dope thing. Weather today,
21:49
Speaker 6: getting up to around 80 degrees, and don't get used

24:37
Speaker 1: Good morning from the WTAW newsroom. I'm Will Welch. Bryan,
24:43
Speaker 1: police say the man wanted in connection with the shooting
24:45
Speaker 1: death of 23-year-old Jalen Walter has turned himself in. An
24:49
Speaker 1: arrest warrant was issued for 20-year-old Cameron Deshaun Scott on Wednesday.
24:53
Speaker 1: He is accused of shooting Walter in an argument Tuesday
24:56
Speaker 1: night at the North Point Business Park. On Thursday, Scott
24:59
Speaker 1: surrendered himself to authorities and has been charged with aggravated
25:03
Speaker 1: assault with a deadly weapon. He is being held on $ 300, 000 bond.
25:07
Speaker 1: College Station police arrested a man after he threatened to
25:10
Speaker 1: kill a door-to-door salesman. They responded to a call in
25:13
Speaker 1: the Nantucket subdivision in South College Station on Tuesday around
25:17
Speaker 1: 5 p.m. They were contacted by a door-to-door salesman who
25:21
Speaker 1: says he was threatened by a relative of a woman
25:23
Speaker 1: with whom he had recently spoken. The solicitor says he
25:26
Speaker 1: had scheduled an appointment with the woman to give her
25:29
Speaker 1: an estimate on new windows and had moved on to
25:31
Speaker 1: another home. That's when 58-year-old Matthew Daniel Brown approached the
25:35
Speaker 1: salesman and threatened to kill him. Brown claims he thought
25:39
Speaker 1: the salesman was trying to take advantage of his 87-year-old
25:42
Speaker 1: mother and admitted to driving around the neighborhood trying to
25:45
Speaker 1: track him down. Because the salesman was in fear of
25:48
Speaker 1: imminent serious bodily injury, Brown was arrested and charged with
25:52
Speaker 1: making a terroristic threat. He is free on $ 3, 000 bond.
25:57
Speaker 1: The Snook Fire Department wants to remind Burleson County residents
26:00
Speaker 1: that the county is still under a burn ban and
26:03
Speaker 1: outdoor burning is prohibited. Robertson County is also still under
26:07
Speaker 1: a burn ban. A local nonprofit is inviting the community
26:10
Speaker 1: to help celebrate their first birthday. Silver Horse Ranch Therapeutic

Speaker 1: is a student at Texas A & M. and founded
26:25
Speaker 1: the organization in November 2025. She talked with WTAW earlier
26:31
Speaker 1: this week about what to expect.
26:33
Speaker 11: Horse meet and greet. There's going to be some yard games.
26:36
Speaker 11: So I think it's going to be a lot of
26:38
Speaker 11: fun hanging out at the barn. It's always peaceful out there.
26:41
Speaker 11: It's a great time for friends and family to come
26:43
Speaker 11: hang out, meet a horse, learn about something going on
26:47
Speaker 11: in your community, and have fun and meet some new
26:50
Speaker 11: people and support your local nonprofits.
26:54
Speaker 1: Johnson says there will also be food trucks, tack shops,
26:57
Speaker 1: and music. The structured lessons help riders build strength, coordination, confidence,
27:02
Speaker 1: and independence while forming meaningful connections with horses and instructors.
27:07
Speaker 1: The event is this Sunday from 3 to 6 at

27:19
Speaker 1: Senator Ted Cruz is responding to the Republican losses in
27:22
Speaker 1: the 2026 midterms. On a recent podcast, Cruz called the
27:26
Speaker 1: results a major rejection of the GOP.
27:30
Speaker 5: It was not simply a bad 2006 midterm election. It
27:35
Speaker 5: was a Watergate-level repudiation.
27:39
Speaker 1: Cruz also acknowledged that he is now the only Republican
27:42
Speaker 1: holding a statewide elected office. He criticized the Trump administration's policies,
27:47
Speaker 1: saying tariffs have made things too expensive and the war
27:50
Speaker 1: with Iran has gone on too long.
27:52
Speaker 12: Tariffs.
27:54
Speaker 5: have made everything too expensive. And the Iran war has
27:59
Speaker 5: dragged on too long. It should have been brief, decisive,
28:05
Speaker 5: and over.
28:06
Speaker 1: Despite the political losses, Cruz said Republicans can rebuild and
28:10
Speaker 1: predicts that Texas will turn red again. The picture is
28:13
Speaker 1: becoming clearer as to who will be the next Speaker
28:17
Speaker 1: of the Texas House.
28:18
Speaker 23: It's been 23 years since a Democrat was elected Speaker
28:21
Speaker 23: of the Texas House, but now that the Dems flipped
28:23
Speaker 23: it on Election Day, we're seeing one name keep popping up.
28:26
Speaker 2: I am proud to support Symphonia Thompson for Speaker of
28:30
Speaker 2: the Texas House.
28:31
Speaker 23: That was Houston State Rep Ann Johnson, and here's why
28:33
Speaker 23: she supports the woman commonly referred to as the Dean
28:36
Speaker 23: of the Texas House.
28:37
Speaker 5: She is a civil rights icon.
28:40
Speaker 13: She led the charge to protect victims of human trafficking
28:42
Speaker 13: long before anybody was.
28:44
Speaker 1: Talking about it.
28:44
Speaker 23: First elected in 1972, Thompson is the longest serving woman
28:48
Speaker 23: and black legislator in Texas history.
28:50
Speaker 21: I've been privileged to be in this house for about
28:54
Speaker 21: 53 years, not because I didn't have anything else to do.
28:57
Speaker 23: Thompson has scheduled a news conference where she's expected to
29:00
Speaker 23: announce her candidacy. In Austin, Chris Fox, TSN News.

30:48
Speaker 6: If I look at the lows, they're inching up, which.
30:50
Speaker 1: I don't know. Mine that I was showing yesterday were
30:53
Speaker 1: not as low as yours, but I'm more disappointed about
30:56
Speaker 1: the rain chances moving out.
30:57
Speaker 11: Yeah, man.
30:58
Speaker 6: I could use a shower once in a while.
31:01
Speaker 1: We've got a new story making sure that people know
31:03
Speaker 1: there's a couple of counties here locally that are still
31:06
Speaker 1: under burn bans.
31:07
Speaker 12: Yep, yep.
31:08
Speaker 6: We ain't out of the woods on that yet, guys.
31:10
Speaker 6: Important to remember. Weather's brought to you by United Roofing
31:12
Speaker 6: and Sheet Metal, home of the Duralast Roof System, the
31:14
Speaker 6: world's best roof. Give them a call at 268-ROOF or
31:17
Speaker 6: Go online, unitedroofingpros.com. I know we had to move on
31:21
Speaker 6: from Nachos Day pretty quick, but I meant to mention,
31:25
Speaker 6: nachos are America's number one favorite Tex-Mex.
31:29
Speaker 1: That's what it said, yeah.
31:31
Speaker 6: Number one?
31:32
Speaker 1: Yeah. Nachos, 82% love them.
31:36
Speaker 6: Yeah, I feel like this is a little bit, this
31:39
Speaker 6: is just phrased kind of funny. Because, yeah, 82% of us,
31:43
Speaker 6: Love nachos. There's almost no one that doesn't like them.
31:46
Speaker 6: So why would you?
31:47
Speaker 1: There's no reason not to like nachos. There's only 3%
31:49
Speaker 1: that don't like them. 14% are neutral. But why? I'm
31:54
Speaker 1: nacho neutral.
31:56
Speaker 6: It's not. You can't say that's the best Tex-Mex.
31:59
Speaker 1: No.
32:00
Speaker 6: And part of this could be because there's a lot
32:02
Speaker 6: of America that doesn't actually know what good Tex-Mex is.
32:04
Speaker 5: Right.
32:04
Speaker 1: There's a ton of folks that have yet to experience it,
32:07
Speaker 1: although it has spread. There was a time when I
32:10
Speaker 1: had Mexican food in Mississippi. And knew it was going
32:14
Speaker 1: to be an issue. And this was years before my
32:17
Speaker 1: daughter went there. And I knew it was a mistake.
32:22
Speaker 1: And I was talked into it by the wife. No,
32:24
Speaker 1: you have to experience. I did the same thing in
32:26
Speaker 1: Utah one time. But now you can get great Mexican
32:29
Speaker 1: food in Mississippi. You can? Yes, absolutely. Really? Yeah, it's probably.
32:32
Speaker 1: They're in Oxford, Mississippi. Yeah. There are taco trucks. There's
32:36
Speaker 1: actual taco trucks. There's a real taco truck. Now, what
32:38
Speaker 1: is not... Is it on par with our taco truck?
32:40
Speaker 1: I've not had the taco trucks. I've had the Mexican
32:42
Speaker 1: food there, and it's on par.
32:43
Speaker 6: Ah, man, I'd need to try the... I'm willing to
32:45
Speaker 6: believe that they're trucks. If it's a truck, I tend
32:48
Speaker 6: to trust a truck.
32:49
Speaker 1: It's a truck manned by a demographic that you know
32:52
Speaker 1: knows how to cook. I'm just saying that.
32:54
Speaker 6: I'm deaf.
32:55
Speaker 1: All right, so let's keep... What they don't have there?
32:57
Speaker 1: Breakfast tacos. I've been encouraged. I said, sweetheart, you find
33:02
Speaker 1: you an investor. You open you up a breakfast taco
33:04
Speaker 1: place in Oxford, Mississippi. I have a kill. You win.
33:07
Speaker 6: I have a guy. She's coming back. Congratulations to her.
33:11
Speaker 1: Thank you.
33:11
Speaker 6: She's going to be doing some grad work.
33:13
Speaker 1: She's been accepted into the Mays School.
33:14
Speaker 19: Yes.
33:15
Speaker 6: Talk to Jesse.
33:16
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
33:17
Speaker 6: Talk to Jesse. Jesse, we're going to East. We're going
33:19
Speaker 6: to East for a minute.
33:20
Speaker 1: Yeah.
33:20
Speaker 6: Let's go plant our flag over there, Jesse. Again, I
33:23
Speaker 6: don't want to see no Torchies out there. I'm talking
33:25
Speaker 6: about Jesse's tacos.
33:26
Speaker 1: A real taco.
33:27
Speaker 6: Yeah, that will change the South.
33:30
Speaker 13: Right.
33:31
Speaker 1: Is what that will.
33:32
Speaker 6: Second, under nachos, there's a tie between salsa.
33:36
Speaker 1: Which is not... Come on, guys. Where did they do this?
33:39
Speaker 6: Salsa and burritos. Third place, fajitas, followed by quesadillas, guacamole, chimichangas.
33:46
Speaker 1: Like a good chimichanga now.
33:48
Speaker 6: Chili con carne and huevos rancheros. I feel like this
33:52
Speaker 6: was written exclusively from people, not only not from Texas.
33:56
Speaker 1: Not from a state that borders Mexico.
33:58
Speaker 6: Yeah, not from a state that borders Mexico. Probably not
34:01
Speaker 6: a state that borders that state.
34:02
Speaker 1: Probably.
34:03
Speaker 6: I feel like we're getting pretty far. The fact that
34:06
Speaker 6: chimichangas is that high is... Upsetting.
34:10
Speaker 1: There were world-class chimichangas in Fayetteville, Arkansas when I lived there.
34:14
Speaker 14: Really?
34:15
Speaker 1: There was a Jose's there.
34:16
Speaker 6: Yeah, not the same.
34:17
Speaker 1: Run by a guy named Joe.
34:19
Speaker 5: Yeah.
34:19
Speaker 4: Right?
34:20
Speaker 1: And he used to do his own commercials with a
34:23
Speaker 1: real hillbilly accent.
34:25
Speaker 16: Right?
34:26
Speaker 6: Yeah, because that's what I want to see.
34:28
Speaker 1: And he started every commercial with this. I'm going to
34:31
Speaker 1: try to imitate it.
34:31
Speaker 10: Oh, Lord.
34:32
Speaker 1: Chimichanga, chimichanga, chimichanga. Come on down. Olé for Jose's.
34:39
Speaker 6: You know what? I don't hate that. No.
34:42
Speaker 11: It hit.
34:42
Speaker 1: It was like a 40-year run on that business.
34:45
Speaker 6: It's kind of like ringing a dinner bell.
34:46
Speaker 1: Yeah. The hillbillies crawled out of the hollers for that.
34:52
Speaker 6: If you've got, I mean, I don't know. What would
34:55
Speaker 6: we even say is the most popular? It's got to.
34:59
Speaker 1: Be enchiladas, yeah? Enchiladas, high on the list. Moving up
35:03
Speaker 1: quickly is the beer of tacos. That stuff is. I've
35:08
Speaker 1: had them. I'm okay with them. It's hard for me
35:11
Speaker 1: to get past enchiladas.
35:13
Speaker 6: Alambre is also pretty strong. Tacos, whatever. Do they even
35:20
Speaker 6: know cheese enchiladas exist?
35:21
Speaker 1: I don't know. My personal favorite, and it has been
35:24
Speaker 1: for a few years now, and it can shift. For
35:27
Speaker 1: a few years, I've been on a big kick of
35:29
Speaker 1: al pastor.
35:31
Speaker 6: Pastor, man. Pastor. There are treasures that, from what I'm
35:38
Speaker 6: reading here, The rest of the country doesn't even have
35:42
Speaker 6: an awareness.
35:42
Speaker 16: No.
35:43
Speaker 1: And I'm certain I could go through the entire list,
35:46
Speaker 1: and chorizo would not be on there, which is a crime.
35:48
Speaker 6: Chorizo, they wouldn't even know what it is.
35:49
Speaker 1: A crime.
35:50
Speaker 6: They wouldn't even know what you're talking about, Will. We'll
35:53
Speaker 6: take a break. We'll be back right after this.
35:55
Speaker 9: Hi, this is Neal Sperry, and I'll be back with

37:44
Speaker 9: If you're choosing new trees for your landscape this fall
37:47
Speaker 9: or for next year or any time during the gardening season,
37:50
Speaker 9: there are several questions you may want to consider in
37:53
Speaker 9: choosing the best tree. How tall and wide do you
37:56
Speaker 9: want the tree to be when it's mature? One of
37:59
Speaker 9: the electric service providers in Texas says in their best
38:02
Speaker 9: information when they advise us, know before you grow. Know
38:06
Speaker 9: how tall and how wide a tree will grow. not
38:09
Speaker 9: just to keep it out of utility lines, but also
38:11
Speaker 9: to let it blend in with other plants that you're growing.
38:14
Speaker 9: Consumers and commercial designers too often mass trees too closely together.
38:19
Speaker 9: If you have a patio home, you have no room
38:22
Speaker 9: for a majestic oak or pecan. What growth form is
38:26
Speaker 9: best for your site? Rounded and oval trees look most natural,
38:29
Speaker 9: so they're usually the best options. However, you'll also find upright, weeping,
38:33
Speaker 9: and spreading trees. Choose the type that would look best
38:36
Speaker 9: with what else is around it. What type and depth
38:39
Speaker 9: of soil do you have? Much of Texas has alkaline soils.
38:44
Speaker 9: Too often, it's shallow, covering white rock caliche. Your tree
38:48
Speaker 9: selection will depend greatly on a species' ability to grow
38:51
Speaker 9: in alkaline conditions, if that sounds like your home. Or
38:54
Speaker 9: if you're in sandy soils of East Texas, you need
38:57
Speaker 9: to consider trees that can handle that. How important is
39:00
Speaker 9: fast growth to your tree selection? Well, I think it's
39:04
Speaker 9: a terrible criterion in the selection of shade trees, and
39:06
Speaker 9: I'll explain why. Most fast types of trees live short
39:10
Speaker 9: and hard lives, dying after 10 or 25 years from
39:14
Speaker 9: an assortment of insects and diseases.
39:16
Speaker 1: They all have fatal flaws.
39:18
Speaker 9: Poor choices for Texas, willows, cottonwoods, fruitless mulberry, silver maple,
39:23
Speaker 9: box elder, catalpa, Arizona ash, mimosa, and Siberian elms. What
39:29
Speaker 9: species of tree? are best adapted to conditions you have? Well,
39:33
Speaker 9: the large shade trees for much of Texas would be
39:35
Speaker 9: Shumard Red Oak, Live Oak, Chinquapin Oak, Burr Oak, Cedar Elm, Pecan,
39:41
Speaker 9: and Chinese Pistachio, Water Oak, and Willow Oak in East Texas.
39:45
Speaker 9: What size of tree will your budget allow? Well, I
39:47
Speaker 9: would encourage you to buy a larger tree if you
39:50
Speaker 9: need immediate impact, but if you're also doing other landscaping
39:53
Speaker 9: and need shrubs, you could go to larger shrubs and
39:56
Speaker 9: smaller shade trees. I'm Neal Sperry. That's Plant Talk Texas
39:59
Speaker 9: for another day. Until next time, thank you so much
40:02
Speaker 9: for listening. I've enjoyed having you with us. Until next time,

Speaker 1: flickering lights. They are here to help. CCElectricBCS.com. Good morning.
40:50
Speaker 25: I'm Riley Flurkey with your morning sports update on 1620-945-WTAW.
40:57
Speaker 1: The Aggie football.
40:58
Speaker 25: Team is hitting the road this weekend and headed to
41:00
Speaker 25: Columbia to take on South Carolina tomorrow afternoon. Head coach
41:04
Speaker 25: Mike Elko spoke about what improvements he's seen from South
41:07
Speaker 25: Carolina's quarterback Lenora Sellers and the Gamecocks offense.
41:12
Speaker 26: I think probably more comfortable with the system. I think
41:14
Speaker 26: obviously new offense, new coordinator. I guess he's gotten comfortable
41:18
Speaker 26: with what they're asking him to do. I think his
41:20
Speaker 26: decision making has gotten a lot better. Obviously playing right
41:23
Speaker 26: now at an elite level has made a ton of
41:25
Speaker 26: explosive plays in the throw game. explosive plays with his legs.
41:29
Speaker 26: We know firsthand how challenging he is to bring down,
41:32
Speaker 26: and I think the perimeter is getting better, too, with
41:35
Speaker 26: their comfort in the offense and what they're trying to do.
41:38
Speaker 26: And so I think it's all just improved tremendously over
41:42
Speaker 26: the last three weeks, and I think you're seeing that
41:44
Speaker 26: in the results they're getting on the field.
41:46
Speaker 25: Kickoff for tomorrow afternoon's game is set for 2 o'clock.
41:49
Speaker 25: The Aggie volleyball team is gearing up for a pair
41:52
Speaker 25: of road contests starting off with Vanderbilt tonight. Head coach
41:56
Speaker 25: Jamie Morrison shared thoughts on where the team is at
41:58
Speaker 25: ahead of this weekend's games.
42:00
Speaker 27: I think, one, the team came to me and said
42:02
Speaker 27: both matches matter, which is nice for them to say. Obviously,
42:05
Speaker 27: a match at Vanderbilt, I think it's an interesting situation
42:08
Speaker 27: where we've never played at that space. So I was
42:11
Speaker 27: just talking to someone that has been there through basketball,
42:13
Speaker 27: and it's an interesting arena and an interesting space that
42:16
Speaker 27: we get to go play in. So we get to
42:17
Speaker 27: figure out a new challenge in that, then turn around
42:19
Speaker 27: and go to Missouri, where I haven't been to since
42:20
Speaker 27: year one. So two tough road matches, I think two
42:23
Speaker 27: tough places to play in their own ways, and we're
42:25
Speaker 27: excited for the challenge.
42:26
Speaker 25: Again, the Maroon and White will start off the weekend
42:29
Speaker 25: with Vanderbilt tonight with first serve set for 7 o'clock.
42:32
Speaker 25: The second match of the weekend will be on Sunday
42:35
Speaker 25: afternoon against Missouri with first serve set for 2 o'clock.
42:38
Speaker 25: The A & M men's basketball team remains at Reed
42:41
Speaker 25: Arena tonight to close out the opening week of the season.
42:45
Speaker 25: And the Aggies will be gearing up tonight to take
42:47
Speaker 25: on North Kentucky with tip-off set for 7 o'clock. The
42:50
Speaker 25: Aggie women's basketball team defeated Louisiana 62-51 to stay undefeated
42:55
Speaker 25: last night inside Reed Arena. Behind Emerald Parker and Kaylin
43:00
Speaker 25: Gilbert's impressive performance that combined for 39 points. Parker led
43:04
Speaker 25: the way for the maroon and white, scoring team-high 20
43:07
Speaker 25: points and adding seven rebounds in two blocks. Head coach
43:10
Speaker 25: Joni Taylor recapped the game and spoke on Parker's performance.
43:14
Speaker 13: I thought we were pressing the score. I think we
43:16
Speaker 13: shared the basketball very well. Lafayette's quick. They're feisty. I
43:19
Speaker 13: thought we were just careless with the basketball. Our goal
43:21
Speaker 13: for tonight was paint touch three. Ball's got to touch
43:24
Speaker 13: the paint first, and we did not do that at
43:25
Speaker 13: all in the first half. Emerald was excellent on both
43:28
Speaker 13: sides of the basketball in terms of how she dominated,
43:30
Speaker 13: and every time she got it, she scored or got fouled,
43:32
Speaker 13: made a play at the rim and put pressure on them.
43:36
Speaker 13: And we've got to have a better awareness of who
43:39
Speaker 13: has a hot hand and get the basketball to that person,
43:42
Speaker 13: to that spot, to that play, whatever that is. I
43:44
Speaker 13: thought we took too many threes, especially after we come
43:46
Speaker 13: out and we're 0 for.
43:47
Speaker 1: 9 at halftime.
43:49
Speaker 13: We just didn't have a good feel offensively, in my opinion, tonight.
43:53
Speaker 25: The team returns to the court tomorrow morning to host
43:56
Speaker 25: LSU New Orleans with tip-off set for 11 a.m. That's
44:00
Speaker 25: your morning sports update on 1620-945-WTAW. I'm Riley Flurkey.

Speaker 12: So when your car needs attention, there is no need
45:50
Speaker 12: to panic. Because now you know where you'll find a
45:55
Speaker 12: good mechanic.
45:56

Speaker 6: home backup generator from Generac. Call Malik to schedule your
46:39
Speaker 6: appointment today. I want to get to some text messages
46:42
Speaker 6: because we were talking about how nachos are apparently America's
46:44
Speaker 6: favorite quote-unquote Mexican food.
46:47
Speaker 27: Which is?
46:48
Speaker 1: Fine.
46:48
Speaker 6: I have no problem with nachos. It's like a strange
46:51
Speaker 6: choice until you realize that most of the country has
46:53
Speaker 6: no idea what actual Mexican food is, let alone Tex-Mex.
46:56
Speaker 6: It's just a mystery to them. You mentioned you could
47:00
Speaker 6: find good Mexican food.
47:02
Speaker 1: I found good Mexican food in Oxford, Mississippi.
47:04
Speaker 6: In Oxford, Mississippi, which I was honestly shocked by.
47:07
Speaker 1: I have friends that say there's great Mexican food, world-class
47:10
Speaker 1: Mexican food, in Chicago.
47:11
Speaker 26: Ah.
47:14
Speaker 6: There is a taco place in Chicago that has won
47:18
Speaker 6: James Beard and that is just a legitimate taco shop.
47:21
Speaker 6: It's just hard for me to believe it because I've
47:24
Speaker 6: walked into some real, real, real just not Mexican food
47:28
Speaker 6: places in some of the Midwestern states like Minnesota. And
47:31
Speaker 6: I'll do this to myself knowing. I'll punish myself because
47:34
Speaker 6: I was like, I got to know.
47:35
Speaker 1: Well, you never know who you find that little needle
47:39
Speaker 1: in the haystack.
47:40
Speaker 6: I ain't found a needle yet, man, when it comes
47:42
Speaker 6: to what I've been going to. But that said, some
47:46
Speaker 6: text messages from you guys weighing in. Jason says, I
47:49
Speaker 6: am never trusting the term Mexican food unless it's from
47:53
Speaker 6: a house that has been partially converted into a restaurant.
47:56
Speaker 1: That's a good call. Yes, sir. That's a clue.
47:59
Speaker 6: That's a real good clue.
48:00
Speaker 1: My teacher wife would call that a context clue.
48:04
Speaker 16: Mm-hmm.
48:04
Speaker 6: Maybe a food truck here and there is authentic, but
48:07
Speaker 6: everything else is Tex-Mex and everything else minus that. He
48:10
Speaker 6: doesn't care, which I agree. Ralph asks... While Will is
48:15
Speaker 6: nacho neutral, how do you feel about fried avocado?
48:19
Speaker 1: Don't like them.
48:20
Speaker 11: Really?
48:21
Speaker 1: My least favorite avocado preparation. Really? By far. Why? Avocados
48:28
Speaker 1: are a high-fat product, right? And then you fry it
48:32
Speaker 1: in fat. Oh, it's absolutely like eating a bowling ball.
48:35
Speaker 1: It's like eating butter to me, fried butter. It's just
48:39
Speaker 1: an avocado is so rich. And then you put, it's
48:42
Speaker 1: not for me. Now, I will take a sliced avocado
48:47
Speaker 1: with a little bit of salt and pepper.
48:48
Speaker 9: Yeah.
48:48
Speaker 1: Specially prepared. Look, I'll say it. The best shrimp cocktail
48:53
Speaker 1: I've had in town is at the Angry Elephant.
48:55
Speaker 14: Really?
48:56
Speaker 1: And they prepare it kind of a Mexican style. See,
48:59
Speaker 1: that's a good start. Sliced avocados there on the side
49:01
Speaker 1: of there. Every time I've had them, perfectly seasoned.
49:04
Speaker 6: That's a good start.
49:05
Speaker 1: And then there's guacamole, which is the way the good
49:08
Speaker 1: Lord intended the avocado. It's the avocado final form.
49:12
Speaker 6: You know, as you bring that up, I do think
49:14
Speaker 6: to myself that yeah, if you have to, it does
49:17
Speaker 6: seem like a waste of an avocado. I mean, it's delicious.
49:19
Speaker 13: I'm fine.
49:20
Speaker 6: But if I was going to have an avocado right there,
49:23
Speaker 6: why not just mash it up and, you know, do
49:25
Speaker 6: the thing? But anyway.
49:27
Speaker 1: I'll put an avocado on a sandwich, too. Oh, heck yeah,
49:29
Speaker 1: I will. A BLTA. That's a solid sandwich.
49:34
Speaker 6: All right, let's get down to business this week.
49:36
Speaker 1: This is my fight song. South.
49:39
Speaker 6: Carolina is the opponent this week for texas a &
49:44
Speaker 6: m we are having to go to the low country
49:47
Speaker 6: what oh will all right it is an unfortunate school
49:54
Speaker 6: it's just one of those mascots you thought would be
49:56
Speaker 6: replaced by now just because i mean i hate to
50:00
Speaker 6: tell you all this cockfighting kind of fell out of
50:02
Speaker 6: favor a little bit time ago it's not exactly smiled
50:05
Speaker 6: upon no and uh and and in this land of ours, but.
50:09
Speaker 1: Yet the smile upon some places in deep East Texas,
50:12
Speaker 1: maybe Arkansas.
50:13
Speaker 6: The border, you probably find a few people still into it,
50:16
Speaker 6: but it's definitely not something that you advertise to people
50:19
Speaker 6: that you, you do as a pastime. It's just kind of, but,
50:22
Speaker 6: but you know, they don't have a lot out there.
50:24
Speaker 6: So we salute, uh, our opponents and try to get
50:27
Speaker 6: to know our enemy, uh, every single week by examining
50:31
Speaker 6: their individual fight song. Now in the university of South Carolina, uh,
50:36
Speaker 6: That fight song is Step to the Rear?
50:40
Speaker 1: Well, okay, so the fight song is called The Fighting
50:43
Speaker 1: Gamecocks Lead the Way. Okay. It was adapted from a
50:47
Speaker 1: Broadway tune called Step to the Rear. It's an auspicious beginning.
50:56
Speaker 1: That's far from imposing, Will. Yeah. I mean, if.
51:02
Speaker 1: I get through this without laughing. What, are we having
51:04
Speaker 1: a problem? Hey, let's give a cheer. Carolina is here.
51:08
Speaker 11: Yeah.
51:09
Speaker 1: The fighting Gamecocks lead the way. Who gives a care
51:12
Speaker 1: if the going gets tough?
51:13
Speaker 12: Yeah.
51:14
Speaker 1: And when it's rough, that's when the cocks get going.
51:17
Speaker 1: I don't doubt. No. Hail to our colors of garnet
51:21
Speaker 1: and black and Carolina pride. Have we? So go, go, Gamecocks. Fight.
51:26
Speaker 1: Drive for the goal.
51:27
Speaker 5: Fight.
51:27
Speaker 1: USC will win today. Go, Cox. Let's give a cheer.
51:31
Speaker 1: Carolina is here. The Fighting Gamecocks all the way.
51:35
Speaker 11: That's, um.
51:41
Speaker 6: That's hard to justify.
51:42
Speaker 1: It's real.
51:42
Speaker 6: That's hard to justify.
51:44
Speaker 1: But again, with a lot of fight songs of the universities,
51:48
Speaker 1: especially the ones that have some age on them.
51:50
Speaker 17: Yeah.
51:50
Speaker 1: You don't tend to hear the fight song as much
51:53
Speaker 1: as you might hear something else.
51:54
Speaker 5: Yeah.
51:54
Speaker 6: In South Carolina's depth. And there's a really that that
51:57
Speaker 6: song tells me everything I need to know about why
52:00
Speaker 6: this became their.
52:02
Speaker 1: Look, it is solid choice. Absolutely solid. And I can't
52:06
Speaker 1: stand it.
52:07
Speaker 6: It gets stuck in your head. It's kind of like
52:10
Speaker 6: the White Stripes song that everyone uses.
52:15
Speaker 1: There's something about... Once the high school bands start playing it,
52:18
Speaker 1: it really should be recycled at the college level. That's
52:21
Speaker 1: all I'm saying. And they just get.
52:23
Speaker 6: Into it more than anyone else does, too.
52:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, they do.
52:25
Speaker 21: It's like, again.
52:26
Speaker 6: They do the jump around.
52:28
Speaker 1: Well, you're wearing those sunglasses from 1998. Got your mullet working.
52:34
Speaker 1: Your chin beard. Yeah. They got it going on out there.
52:37
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this.
52:38
Speaker 6: As far as early 2000s bangers that have been introduced
52:43
Speaker 6: into the college football landscape, It's better than Mr. Brightside.
52:49
Speaker 6: I don't know why Mr. Brightside at Michigan annoys me
52:52
Speaker 6: so much, but that one just drives me bonkers. I
52:55
Speaker 6: don't get it. I don't understand it. But this, I get.
53:00
Speaker 1: I get. I'm sick of it. I can't stand to
53:05
Speaker 1: hear it. It's making me nauseous right now.
53:07
Speaker 6: Great kickoff song.
53:08
Speaker 1: Effective.
53:08
Speaker 6: You might be hearing it a lot. The last couple
53:11
Speaker 6: of weeks are gone. That's the problem. We will have
53:14
Speaker 6: our picks. By the way, coming up for this week's
53:17
Speaker 6: SEC action, which we'll have to ask Louie this. This
53:20
Speaker 6: might be the best week of the year. This is
53:21
Speaker 6: a great week.
53:22
Speaker 1: It is a great week in college football. And, of course,
53:24
Speaker 1: I'm slammed busy all Saturday.
53:26
Speaker 6: Are you not going to be able to watch any games?
53:27
Speaker 1: I'm going to watch some games. But, yeah, I've got
53:30
Speaker 1: a very busy weekend.
53:30
Speaker 6: What are you doing instead of just planting yourself on
53:32
Speaker 6: the couch?
53:33
Speaker 1: Well, we've got the Little and Elite Wranglers barn dance
53:37
Speaker 1: is Saturday evening. So we'll have to be there in mid-afternoon.
53:42
Speaker 1: to help set up and stuff for that.
53:44
Speaker 6: Can they do a Western dance to this?
53:47
Speaker 1: Those kids can dance to anything.
53:48
Speaker 6: It feels like technically you could do a little bit
53:51
Speaker 6: of a line dance to it. Maybe some, I mean,
53:54
Speaker 6: you could.
53:55
Speaker 1: I will text one of the coaches and ask.
53:58
Speaker 6: I mean, if you want to see a million views
54:01
Speaker 6: on Instagram real quick. I'm telling you, real quick. Get
54:03
Speaker 6: the choreographers involved.
54:06
Speaker 1: I'm going to text one here shortly.
54:07
Speaker 6: Yeah, all right, we'll see what we can do, man.
54:09
Speaker 6: I like the idea. Good morning, guys. Friday is here.
54:15
Speaker 6: Coming up, we'll talk news for a second. Remember, if
54:17
Speaker 6: you get out of your car, always have the opportunity
54:20
Speaker 6: to stream the show. We encourage that you do. W-T-A-W
54:24
Speaker 6: dot com. And it's powered by our friends at Loyalty Plumbing.
54:29
Speaker 6: And if you have to get out and run away to,
54:31
Speaker 6: I don't know, you know, go do something.
54:33
Speaker 1: To go eat a fried avocado.
54:34
Speaker 6: A fried avocado in the morning because that's the way
54:36
Speaker 6: to start your day. You can always catch up on
54:38
Speaker 6: anything you miss.
54:39
Speaker 1: Rowena agrees with me. Avocados contain healthy fats. Fried, yuck.
54:45
Speaker 1: Didn't know this was such a divisive dish.
54:47
Speaker 6: But you learn something new every day.
54:49
Speaker 1: We're 1620-945-WT.
