- 1:25Speaker 2: are denied without adequate review or whether the company engages
- 1:29Speaker 2: in any other unlawful practices. The Republican noting the probe
- 1:32Speaker 2: comes after a string of consumer complaints. Paxton, who is
- 1:36Speaker 2: running for U.S. Senate in Texas, saying in a statement,
- 1:38Speaker 2: Blue Cross Blue Shield has a responsibility to put patients
- 1:41Speaker 2: before profits and ensure that Texans receive the care they need, adding,

- 1:54Speaker 1: All Shipley's Donuts locations in Bryan and College Station will
- 1:58Speaker 1: be closed on Wednesday to allow friends and family to
- 2:01Speaker 1: grieve the loss of a man murdered last week in
- 2:03Speaker 1: Grimes County. 51-year-old Vicente Yanez was shot and killed on
- 2:07Speaker 1: September 22nd. According to the company's Facebook page, the Yanez
- 2:11Speaker 1: family has been a part of the local Shipley's Donuts
- 2:13Speaker 1: family for nearly 40 years. They say Vicente was an
- 2:16Speaker 1: integral part of that history and the foundation of their
- 2:19Speaker 1: core group of bakers. In addition to two brothers... Vicente
- 2:23Speaker 1: was also related to several other bakers and members of
- 2:25Speaker 1: their front-of-house team. The company says his family is woven
- 2:29Speaker 1: throughout our shops, which means this loss isn't being felt
- 2:32Speaker 1: by just one part of our organization. It is being
- 2:35Speaker 1: felt throughout our entire Shipley family. The man accused in
- 2:38Speaker 1: the murder is in custody. The most powerful rocket ever
- 2:42Speaker 1: built took a major step forward in testing. SpaceX launched
- 2:46Speaker 1: its massive starship from South Texas yesterday. Three, two, one.
- 2:54Speaker 3: With that enormous roar, SpaceX Starship is hoisted from the
- 2:58Speaker 3: launch pad on 16 million pounds of thrust. Their goal
- 3:01Speaker 3: is to send Starship into low Earth orbit for the
- 3:03Speaker 3: first time, testing the capabilities of the rocket to get
- 3:06Speaker 3: to the moon. If everything checks out, NASA plans to
- 3:09Speaker 3: use the Starship to carry humans to the lunar surface
- 3:12Speaker 3: as early as next year.
- 3:13Speaker 1: That's Jim Ryan with TSN News. More news ahead at 6.30
- 3:17Speaker 1: or anytime at WTAW.com. I'm Will Welch, 1620-945-WTAW.
- 3:24Speaker 4: Today, high of 96. Tomorrow, high of 96. But what's
- 3:31Speaker 4: the difference? 40% chance of rain.
- 3:33Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 3:33Speaker 4: Yes. And then slowly decreasing temperatures on Thursday and Friday.
- 3:39Speaker 4: Weather brought to you by Malik Service Company and the

- 3:53Speaker 4: your heroes. That goes for their beers as well, apparently.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Yeah, apparently. The Alamo beer was... I.
- 4:00Speaker 4: Was so disappointed. I was hoping that you were going
- 4:06Speaker 4: to try and be like, this is exactly what I had.
- 4:08Speaker 6: Right.
- 4:08Speaker 1: This is what I could picture drinking in the alley.
- 4:11Speaker 4: With the boys. You know, it's like, yep.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Yep. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Yeah.
- 4:20Speaker 4: That was not the case.
- 4:21Speaker 1: No, it was not. It was not the worst beer
- 4:24Speaker 1: I've ever had.
- 4:27Speaker 4: Whenever you start out with that.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's not something I will reach for again.
- 4:32Speaker 1: It will be a display item.
- 4:34Speaker 4: Can you describe what the taste of Alamo beer is?
- 4:38Speaker 1: It was kind of like an over-aged Pabst.
- 4:43Speaker 4: What?
- 4:44Speaker 1: Yeah, like a Pabst that's been sitting around a little sour.
- 4:48Speaker 4: Is it possible that that is, in fact, what Alamo
- 4:51Speaker 4: beer is?
- 4:52Speaker 1: It's possible, but then I can tell you that that
- 4:55Speaker 1: would not be what Hank Hill would be drinking.
- 4:56Speaker 4: No, it wouldn't be.
- 4:57Speaker 1: And the rest of the boys.
- 4:58Speaker 4: It wouldn't be. Hank would only drink. I mean, I
- 5:02Speaker 4: have in my head, like, maybe flavor profiles of Lone Star.
- 5:06Speaker 1: Lone Star, the OG Pearl, which came out, again, not
- 5:09Speaker 1: too many years ago. You could get Pearl again.
- 5:11Speaker 4: Pearl can.
- 5:12Speaker 1: And that stuff was good.
- 5:14Speaker 4: I feel like Hank Hill might have been a more, like,
- 5:15Speaker 4: a High Life flavor.
- 5:16Speaker 1: High Life?
- 5:18Speaker 4: Maybe original Bud.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Maybe so, or original Coors. The Colorado Kool-Aid.
- 5:24Speaker 4: Oh, Banquet Beer.
- 5:25Speaker 1: The Banquet Beer.
- 5:26Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Or the one that gets overlooked frequently. And I enjoy it.
- 5:33Speaker 1: In fact, I've got the better part of a case
- 5:36Speaker 1: in my fridge right now. Shiner Premium.
- 5:40Speaker 4: Not a chance.
- 5:41Speaker 5: No.
- 5:42Speaker 1: The original Shiner Pilsner. That's what it is.
- 5:44Speaker 4: I don't think that Hank would drink Shiner.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Why not?
- 5:47Speaker 4: It's too, Hank, it's, you gotta, Shiner is something that
- 5:53Speaker 4: came to, I know it's been around for a while,
- 5:54Speaker 4: but it came to prominence in like the 2000s. That
- 5:58Speaker 4: is too froofy for Hank Hill.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Well, but in Texas, the Shiner was prominent before that.
- 6:03Speaker 4: It was, it was.
- 6:04Speaker 1: My great uncle worked for the Spetzel Brewery.
- 6:07Speaker 4: I just, I just don't see, if he, It depends
- 6:10Speaker 4: where Arlen is. Arlen, I guess, is supposed to be
- 6:13Speaker 4: up near Dallas.
- 6:14Speaker 1: Yeah, in that case, I think it probably wouldn't be Shiner.
- 6:17Speaker 1: It was more of a South Texas sort of thing.
- 6:20Speaker 4: I think he'd be, like I said, I think American beer,
- 6:24Speaker 4: but it's got to be one of the old faithfuls.
- 6:26Speaker 4: It's got to be Bud Classic. I'll give you Lone Star. Honestly,
- 6:31Speaker 4: Lone Star is the one that I most believe.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Look, I drank some Lone Star.
- 6:36Speaker 4: Yeah, everyone did.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Nothing wrong. No, I still did.
- 6:38Speaker 4: Everyone did. And yeah, that is what the flavor profile
- 6:42Speaker 4: would be.
- 6:43Speaker 1: I think so. This Alamo was just not it.
- 6:45Speaker 4: I don't think they thought it through. I think someone
- 6:47Speaker 4: realized that if they put the Alamo label on a
- 6:50Speaker 4: can of beer, they're going to make it. So much money.
- 6:53Speaker 1: Which, by the way, is one of those plastic shrink-wrapped
- 6:59Speaker 1: labels on there. It's not the cool stuff. It's not
- 7:03Speaker 1: an authentic. They probably took the beer that you used
- 7:07Speaker 1: to buy from the generic stores that just said beer
- 7:10Speaker 1: on the side of it in a plain can. And
- 7:12Speaker 1: then they covered it with Alamo.
- 7:14Speaker 4: We used to be a proper nation.
- 7:16Speaker 1: We did.
- 7:16Speaker 4: Our Alamo beer used to be crafted.
- 7:19Speaker 1: That's right. Handcrafted. Have to go to Mexico to get
- 7:23Speaker 1: the non-poisonous batch.
- 7:29Speaker 4: The bad batch of Alamo beer. You know, that would be,
- 7:32Speaker 4: if they wanted to really dial it up a notch. Yeah,
- 7:35Speaker 4: make one toxic batch. And the real ones would know why.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 7:40Speaker 4: The real ones would know why.
- 7:42Speaker 1: And they would drive to Mexico to get the good stuff.
- 7:45Speaker 4: Oh, that's absolutely amazing. I love it.
- 7:47Speaker 1: I'll tell you what.
- 7:51Speaker 4: Still one of your best impressions of this day.
- 7:53Speaker 7: We've all heard the promise, I'll eliminate property tax. It
- 7:56Speaker 7: sounds great until you ask how. The truth, if the
- 7:59Speaker 7: state doesn't pay its fair share for our schools, that
- 8:01Speaker 7: money has to come from somewhere. Often, that means a
- 8:04Speaker 7: massive hike in sales tax, hitting every single thing you
- 8:07Speaker 7: buy for your kids. I'm Janet Dudding, and I won't
- 8:10Speaker 7: give you a slogan. I'll give you the truth. We

- 11:06Speaker 4: What does that beer taste like? Is that the question?
- 11:10Speaker 4: That's what the beer tastes like. I really wish I
- 11:15Speaker 4: could do a much better Hank Hill. It's something to
- 11:17Speaker 4: work on, I guess.
- 11:18Speaker 1: Yeah, I would love to kill a Boom Hour, but
- 11:19Speaker 1: I just can't get that one. It's Aspirations. Or a
- 11:23Speaker 1: Rusty Shackleford.
- 11:24Speaker 5: Oh, Lord.
- 11:25Speaker 4: Yep, I would love to do a good Dale. Quality
- 11:28Speaker 4: Dale would make my day.
- 11:29Speaker 1: All right.
- 11:31Speaker 4: Today is the 29th. of September, 2026. Two days away
- 11:37Speaker 4: from October. Almost to, I mean, to the final push.
- 11:41Speaker 1: The fourth quarter, if you will.
- 11:43Speaker 4: Where we start getting into holiday frame of mind. What
- 11:47Speaker 4: do you have to celebrate today? Well, there's a few things.
- 11:50Speaker 4: VFW Day. Founding history of the veteran of foreign wars
- 11:55Speaker 4: of the United States is honored today. Tracing its origins
- 11:58Speaker 4: back to 1899. After the Spanish-American and Philippine-American wars. Wanted
- 12:02Speaker 4: to form organizations to advocate for veterans' benefits and support.
- 12:06Speaker 4: Several groups eventually merged into what today is known as
- 12:10Speaker 4: the VFW.
- 12:12Speaker 1: I had no idea that their roots went back that far.
- 12:15Speaker 4: Neither did I. I really honestly had no idea it
- 12:18Speaker 4: was that.
- 12:18Speaker 1: My experience with the VFW is that was one of
- 12:21Speaker 1: two places in Clark County, Arkansas, that you could buy
- 12:24Speaker 1: a beer.
- 12:25Speaker 4: That is, VFWs have long been... one of the cornerstones
- 12:32Speaker 4: of small-town life in this country. And I'd love to
- 12:35Speaker 4: see it. All right, another one. I don't anticipate you
- 12:38Speaker 4: celebrating this one, but I'm absolutely going to be celebrating it.
- 12:41Speaker 4: That's Broadway Musicals Day.
- 12:43Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 12:43Speaker 4: You're not much of a Broadway guy?
- 12:45Speaker 1: I respect them. It's not that I'm much of a
- 12:47Speaker 1: Broadway guy. I'm less of a musicals guy.
- 12:50Speaker 13: Really?
- 12:51Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 12:51Speaker 4: Some people really just don't like musicals. And it's hard
- 12:54Speaker 4: for me to understand. I just have to just, like,
- 12:56Speaker 4: you know, accept it.
- 12:57Speaker 1: Because, like....
- 13:05Speaker 4: This doesn't do anything for you.
- 13:07Speaker 1: I mean, it's a good song. I respect it as music.
- 13:10Speaker 1: But when I go to theater, I want to see theater.
- 13:12Speaker 1: I don't go to musical theater because I don't want
- 13:14Speaker 1: to see musical theater.
- 13:17Speaker 4: I'm going to try another one for you. Have you
- 13:21Speaker 4: ever actually been to a musical?
- 13:22Speaker 1: Oh, yes.
- 13:23Speaker 4: Okay, so you have.
- 13:24Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 13:24Speaker 15: Okay, all right.
- 13:25Speaker 4: Just making sure.
- 13:25Speaker 1: It's a theater minor, Tucker. I've been to lots of stuff.
- 13:28Speaker 4: You're a theater minor and you don't like musicals?
- 13:31Speaker 1: It's just a personal preference.
- 13:32Speaker 4: No, that's fine. You don't find this particularly moving? Like,
- 13:38Speaker 4: this is acting.
- 13:39Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Well, I get it. It's acting through song.
- 13:42Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 13:42Speaker 1: No, I understand.
- 13:43Speaker 11: I understand.
- 13:45Speaker 1: It's just powerful. It's not my favorite thing. I'm much
- 13:49Speaker 1: more of a reality-based individual, and in my life experience,
- 13:53Speaker 1: it is infrequent when people will just suddenly break out
- 13:55Speaker 1: into song.
- 13:56Speaker 4: I don't know who you hang out with.
- 13:59Speaker 1: I know who you hang out with, so I understand
- 14:01Speaker 1: your perspective.
- 14:03Speaker 4: This won Anne Hathaway an Oscar. Yeah. This song. There
- 14:08Speaker 4: was literally no other part of that movie that was like, oh, yeah,
- 14:10Speaker 4: it's kind of all right. It's pretty good. That won
- 14:13Speaker 4: her an Oscar.
- 14:14Speaker 1: Congrats, Anne.
- 14:18Speaker 4: Don't worry, I'm not going to continue this playlist, but
- 14:21Speaker 4: I absolutely do.
- 14:23Speaker 1: Again, I mean, I respect the music. I respect the art.
- 14:25Speaker 1: It just does not appeal to me.
- 14:27Speaker 4: No, that's fair. Not even the fun musicals?
- 14:29Speaker 1: Not even the fun musicals.
- 14:30Speaker 4: Book of Mormon?
- 14:31Speaker 1: Book of Mormon, no. I haven't seen Book of Mormon,
- 14:33Speaker 1: so I can't tell you about that one.
- 14:35Speaker 4: Not even Hamilton?
- 14:36Speaker 1: No, no, not Hamilton.
- 14:38Speaker 4: Not Hamilton?
- 14:39Speaker 1: Not my jam, dude.
- 14:40Speaker 4: Oh, okay. All right, all right. We will agree to disagree.
- 14:44Speaker 1: No, again, I respect the art. It just does not
- 14:46Speaker 1: appeal to me.
- 14:48Speaker 4: What else do we have? Coffee Day. That's a big one.
- 14:51Speaker 4: Not International Coffee Day, which ironically happens in two days.
- 14:55Speaker 4: This is just regular coffee.
- 14:56Speaker 1: They couldn't get that lined up.
- 14:58Speaker 4: How?
- 15:01Speaker 1: It's probably a NATO discussion that has happened over decades.
- 15:04Speaker 4: Murky origin story on coffee. Famous legend involves a goat
- 15:08Speaker 4: herder named Caldi who supposedly noticed his goats were becoming
- 15:11Speaker 4: unusually energetic after eating berries off of a certain plant,
- 15:14Speaker 4: the coffee plant. And he decided to experiment with it
- 15:17Speaker 4: and created the caffeinated beverage that we all know and
- 15:20Speaker 4: love today. Allegedly. It became established in Yemen as a
- 15:25Speaker 4: cultural thing, and in the 15th century spread through the
- 15:28Speaker 4: Ottoman world, and then Europeans finally got a hold of it,
- 15:31Speaker 4: mainly because it was an alternative to tea. It was like, hey,
- 15:34Speaker 4: if you couldn't get the tea, you go with the coffee,
- 15:38Speaker 4: and then spread from there. Also Mocha Day. Mocha, Mocha, Mocha, Mocha.
- 15:43Speaker 1: Mocha.
- 15:44Speaker 4: Chocolates. There's that. And yeah, that's what we got. What
- 15:49Speaker 4: do we have on birthdays?
- 15:50Speaker 1: Birthdays, we have a fairly long list. Halsey is 32.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Biggest hit, Closer with the Chainsmokers, who is a band
- 15:57Speaker 1: I was not really familiar with until my daughter went
- 16:00Speaker 1: and saw them over the weekend.
- 16:03Speaker 4: Where did she see the Chainsmokers? They're still around?
- 16:06Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm certain of it. Okay. I guess. I mean,
- 16:11Speaker 1: that's who she told me she was going to go see.
- 16:13Speaker 1: All I know is she went to the Waffle House
- 16:14Speaker 1: afterwards and sent me a picture.
- 16:16Speaker 4: Lovely.
- 16:16Speaker 1: Is it someone in casinos or something in Mississippi?
- 16:20Speaker 4: Oh, I get you.
- 16:21Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 16:21Speaker 1: Kevin Durant is 38. The former Oklahoma City Thunder forward
- 16:25Speaker 1: now with the Houston Rockets.
- 16:27Speaker 4: Absolutely toxic to every team he's.
- 16:29Speaker 1: Ever been on.

- 17:15Speaker 20: Yeah.
- 17:16Speaker 4: That was truly awful.
- 17:17Speaker 1: Yesterday.
- 17:17Speaker 4: That was not the same.
- 17:18Speaker 1: Just yesterday, I thought of The Beverly Hillbillies. After I'd
- 17:21Speaker 1: seen the videos of Madonna's performances at the VMAs, I
- 17:26Speaker 1: thought to myself, she looks just like a slightly younger

- 17:59Speaker 1: had TV theme songs.
- 18:00Speaker 4: There used to be a real art to this.
- 18:02Speaker 1: Real art to it.
- 18:02Speaker 4: I mean, and you still have TV theme songs that
- 18:05Speaker 4: become really iconic. A lot of them are regular songs
- 18:09Speaker 4: that they repurpose. It's not the same as they used
- 18:12Speaker 4: to do back then.
- 18:12Speaker 1: No, they used to create these original... Orchestral.
- 18:15Speaker 4: Yes. intros to shows.

- 23:31Speaker 4: first little taste.
- 23:32Speaker 1: Yeah, we're really not going to, from what I understand,
- 23:35Speaker 1: and I'm just kind of compiling different data and different
- 23:38Speaker 1: forecasters in my head. I think the consensus is we're
- 23:42Speaker 1: not really going to get into the thick of it
- 23:44Speaker 1: until Thursday. We may get scattered stuff.
- 23:46Speaker 12: Right.
- 23:47Speaker 1: Maybe late Wednesday night.
- 23:48Speaker 18: Right.
- 23:49Speaker 4: That's your best bet, and the temperatures will reflect that,

- 24:10Speaker 25: The FAA said it will not certify Boeing 737 MAX
- 24:14Speaker 25: 10 until it assesses a new software bug. The issue,
- 24:18Speaker 25: which Boeing flagged last month, could cut off automated landing
- 24:21Speaker 25: guidance if pilots must perform a go-around or attempt a
- 24:25Speaker 25: landing again. Boeing had expected the MAX 10 to win
- 24:28Speaker 25: FAA approval in the coming weeks. The NBA season hasn't
- 24:32Speaker 25: even started and the Philadelphia 76ers signing of LeBron James
- 24:36Speaker 25: is already paying off. Boyd Company projects that the first
- 24:39Speaker 25: full year of LeBron James with the 76ers could add
- 24:42Speaker 25: up to $ 430 million in total regional economic activity. Kipler
- 24:48Speaker 25: data says that crude oil exports from key Middle East
- 24:50Speaker 25: producers rebounded in September to roughly 16.3 million barrels per day.
- 24:55Speaker 25: That's the highest since the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran started
- 24:59Speaker 25: in late February. Futures are mixed. Yesterday, the Dow lost 347.
- 25:04Speaker 25: The Nasdaq down 248. That's your money now.
- 25:14Speaker 26: The team's looking good this season.
- 25:15Speaker 1: I think so. Man, I miss playing football. Ever since
- 25:18Speaker 1: I turned 40, I just can't find that fire.
- 25:20Speaker 4: I used to have.
- 25:20Speaker 26: Think it could be lower testosterone?
- 25:22Speaker 14: What do you mean?
- 25:22Speaker 26: I was feeling the same way. After 40, the body
- 25:24Speaker 26: has less testosterone, and men lose their edge. That's why
- 25:26Speaker 26: I take Nugenics Total T2. That's the testosterone booster, right? Yes,
- 25:29Speaker 26: but Total T2 is their brand new formula that skyrockets
- 25:32Speaker 26: nitric oxide levels in as little as three hours. Since
- 25:34Speaker 26: I started taking it, I've been lifting like when we
- 25:36Speaker 26: played for Coach Carter. My energy is way up, and
- 25:38Speaker 26: it even spiced up things between.

- 27:11Speaker 1: Good morning from the WTAW newsroom. I'm Will Welch. Texas
- 27:16Speaker 1: A & M President Susan Balabina held the 2026 President's
- 27:20Speaker 1: Address on Monday. The theme, Beyond 150, One University for Good.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Part of the shared vision and strategic plan includes the
- 27:28Speaker 1: Aggie Passport.
- 27:30Speaker 21: In the future, every undergraduate is not just encouraged... but
- 27:35Speaker 21: required to complete a minimum number of transcripted high-impact learning experiences,
- 27:42Speaker 21: from internships to research to study abroad.
- 27:46Speaker 1: Micro-credentialing for the Citizens for Good program will begin in
- 27:50Speaker 1: the fall as a way to validate a student's knowledge, skills,
- 27:53Speaker 1: character development, and public service experience as it relates to
- 27:56Speaker 1: civic readiness. Another vision comes in the form of expanding
- 28:00Speaker 1: clinical health partnerships.
- 28:02Speaker 21: As part of our vision to elevate health... I'm pleased
- 28:05Speaker 21: to share we are aggressively exploring clinical partnerships that could
- 28:11Speaker 21: ultimately allow us to establish a Texas A & M
- 28:14Speaker 21: branded hospital. Such partnerships stand to further elevate our clinical standing,
- 28:22Speaker 21: strengthen our teaching mission, and accelerate our research impact.
- 28:27Speaker 1: President Balabina says through A & M System Agency partners,
- 28:31Speaker 1: the university already has relationships in communities throughout Texas. And
- 28:35Speaker 1: a few institutions have both the scientific capacity and the
- 28:38Speaker 1: statewide infrastructure to translate discovery into service at that scale.
- 28:43Speaker 1: Governor Greg Abbott is taking action to try to alleviate
- 28:46Speaker 1: some of the pain at the pump. He issued a
- 28:48Speaker 1: statewide disaster proclamation on Monday to allow the expanded use
- 28:53Speaker 1: of dyed diesel on Texas roads. Red dyed diesel is
- 28:56Speaker 1: typically used in ag operations and sold without a motor
- 28:59Speaker 1: fuels tax. Because it is untaxed, state law bars its
- 29:03Speaker 1: use on public roadways. Governor Abbott asked EPA Administrator Lee
- 29:07Speaker 1: Zeldin for a temporary Clean Air Act waiver of federal
- 29:10Speaker 1: diesel rules. Those standards limit which diesel can be sold,
- 29:14Speaker 1: and a waiver would allow more fuel to reach Texas pumps.
- 29:17Speaker 1: The governor's proclamation suspends state restrictions and associated penalties so
- 29:21Speaker 1: operators can use such fuel on Texas roads. It does
- 29:25Speaker 1: not waive the underlying fuel tax. A large portion of
- 29:28Speaker 1: the state is expected to experience heavy rains and flooding
- 29:31Speaker 1: this week. The governor says state agencies will be standing by.
- 29:36Speaker 29: Parts of the I-35 corridor from the Oklahoma border through
- 29:38Speaker 29: DFW and southeast. of San Antonio could get 10 inches
- 29:41Speaker 29: of rain this week from a cold front. while Governor
- 29:43Speaker 29: Greg Abbott says West Texas and the Panhandle will get
- 29:46Speaker 29: drenched from the remnants of Hurricane Polo.
- 29:47Speaker 30: There could be damage to property because of this water.
- 29:51Speaker 30: Know that your life is far more than the value
- 29:54Speaker 30: of any piece of property.
- 29:55Speaker 29: Texas Division of Emergency Management Chief Nim Kidd says this
- 29:57Speaker 29: will cover a wider area than heavy rain in July.
- 30:00Speaker 4: Turn around, don't drown is the most important message.
- 30:02Speaker 18: We can get that out.
- 30:03Speaker 20: We lose too many lives and people trying to drive
- 30:05Speaker 20: through low water in their vehicles.
- 30:06Speaker 29: He says they'll have boat teams across West Texas, and
- 30:09Speaker 29: DPS and the National Guard will have equipment and manpower
- 30:11Speaker 29: across the state. saying they know big events are scheduled
- 30:14Speaker 29: across Texas this week, from the state fair to college
- 30:16Speaker 29: football to the start of Austin City Limits this weekend.
- 30:19Speaker 29: Alan Skaia, TSN News.
- 30:21Speaker 1: James Tallarico isn't waiting on Ken Paxton to debate the issues.
- 30:25Speaker 1: There are open requests for Paxton to debate at Texas
- 30:28Speaker 1: A & M and Fox News. The Tallarico camp announced
- 30:31Speaker 1: Monday afternoon that CNN will air a town hall with
- 30:34Speaker 1: Tallarico from Fort Worth on October 14th. Coincidentally, that is
- 30:38Speaker 1: the date that the MSC Wiley Lecture Series extended for
- 30:41Speaker 1: their debate. Burleson County Sheriff Bill Rios is hosting a
- 30:45Speaker 1: town hall meeting tonight in Caldwell. The Burleson County Emergency
- 30:49Speaker 1: Management Director and Fire Chiefs from local volunteer fire departments
- 30:53Speaker 1: will be in attendance to answer questions. The meeting starts
- 30:56Speaker 1: at 6 p.m. at the Caldwell Civic Center. The meeting
- 30:59Speaker 1: will be streamed on the Burleson County Sheriff's Facebook page.
- 31:03Speaker 1: A bill aimed at reshaping the college sports industry took
- 31:06Speaker 1: a major step toward becoming law. By an overwhelming vote
- 31:10Speaker 1: of 77 to 22, the U.S. Senate voted to pass
- 31:13Speaker 1: the Protect College Sports Act Monday night. The bill now
- 31:17Speaker 1: moves to the House of Representatives, where it will face
- 31:20Speaker 1: opposition from both sides of the political spectrum and a
- 31:23Speaker 1: narrow window to garner support. Fox's Chad Pergram has more.
- 31:28Speaker 16: It's the most consequential bill on sports in decades. It
- 31:33Speaker 16: commands bipartisan support. Now, the plan lets schools spend $ 49
- 31:38Speaker 16: million on players, but athletes can still earn money for
- 31:42Speaker 16: their name, image and likeness. It also stops repeated transfers. Now,
- 31:47Speaker 16: President Trump.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Pushed the bill.
- 31:48Speaker 16: He says the system was desperate.
- 31:51Speaker 8: The alternative is just as no good.
- 31:52Speaker 9: You had people leaving the NFL to play and the
- 31:55Speaker 9: colleges could never have afforded it.
- 31:57Speaker 16: The House won't consider the bill until after the midterm.
- 32:01Speaker 1: If the bill doesn't get through the House during a
- 32:03Speaker 1: lame duck legislative session before new Congress takes over in January.
- 32:07Speaker 1: The full process would have to start from the beginning.
- 32:10Speaker 1: More news on the way at 7 o'clock or anytime
- 32:12Speaker 1: at WTAW.com. I'm Will Welch, 1620-945-WTAW.
- 32:20Speaker 31: AI, big tech, and online predators are creating new threats
- 32:25Speaker 31: for our children every day. As a father, Paul Dyson
- 32:28Speaker 31: knows how dangerous these platforms can be. That's why he
- 32:31Speaker 31: passed a law stopping big tech and predators from targeting
- 32:35Speaker 31: Texas children. And he passed legislation blocking AI from being
- 32:39Speaker 31: used as a weapon against our kids. State Representative Paul
- 32:42Speaker 31: Dyson is protecting our kids and keeping Texas strong and safe.
- 32:46Speaker 31: Political ad paid for by Paul Dyson for Texas.
- 32:50Speaker 1: Howdy, Ags.
- 32:50Speaker 4: This is Dr.

- 32:57Speaker 32: Aggie class of 2007. I was born an Aggie, raised
- 33:00Speaker 32: an Aggie, and now back in the Brazos Valley to
- 33:01Speaker 32: serve Aggieland, the incredible place that made me the person
- 33:04Speaker 32: that I am today. We're the only fellowship-trained glaucoma, cornea,

- 33:36Speaker 1: Here's Brad Beard of Intercon.
- 33:38Speaker 15: I was in a store and heard a child tell
- 33:39Speaker 15: her mother, this one must be better because it costs more.
- 33:42Speaker 15: What a naive concept. Do adults sometimes fall into a
- 33:45Speaker 15: similar trap? Recently, I've had customers tell me they have
- 33:47Speaker 15: received a competitor's bid, which was five to ten times
- 33:50Speaker 15: as expensive as Intercon's quote for new windows. Are they
- 33:52Speaker 15: really getting the right value proposition? Fortunately, Energy Star certification
- 33:56Speaker 15: provides a set of uniform metrics to quickly compare the
- 33:59Speaker 15: thermal efficiency of windows. Windows have three basic components, frame material,
- 34:03Speaker 15: insulated glass, and balance mechanisms. How reliable is each component?
- 34:06Speaker 1: We'll be right back.

- 35:44Speaker 4: can forgive the not liking musicals thing. I cannot tolerate
- 35:50Speaker 4: the take you just had about the king of rock
- 35:55Speaker 4: and roll. We were having this discussion while commercials were playing.
- 36:00Speaker 4: We're talking musicals. Don Quixote came up because of the
- 36:05Speaker 4: birthday of the person that wrote it. And I was like, hey,
- 36:07Speaker 4: that's a musical, The Impossible Dream. And I went to
- 36:10Speaker 4: find this song to impress Will Welch.
- 36:12Speaker 15: That's right.
- 36:15Speaker 4: And what did you say, Will?
- 36:18Speaker 1: I said this is the point in Elvis' career where
- 36:22Speaker 1: he attained vibrato by grabbing his gut and jiggling it
- 36:26Speaker 1: up and down. Stop it. Now, this is not prime
- 36:29Speaker 1: Elvis is what I said. It's not prime Elvis.
- 36:34Speaker 4: Final form Elvis.
- 36:35Speaker 1: Final form Elvis was not prime. You didn't like Fat Elvis?
- 36:37Speaker 1: I didn't say I didn't like him. I said he
- 36:39Speaker 1: was not the prime Elvis.
- 36:42Speaker 4: I would classify, and maybe it's not, I would classify
- 36:45Speaker 4: that as an unpopular opinion.
- 36:47Speaker 1: Hey, you tell me what your favorite Elvis was. Louisiana
- 36:51Speaker 1: Hayride Elvis?
- 36:52Speaker 4: They're all great Elvis. They're all the equal. They're all
- 36:54Speaker 4: equivalent Elvis's.
- 36:55Speaker 1: Movie star Elvis?
- 36:56Speaker 4: They're all equivalent Elvis's.
- 36:58Speaker 6: All of them.
- 36:59Speaker 1: They're not. They're three separate parts to that man.
- 37:03Speaker 4: 979-695-1620. Not so much on the Elvis, but I did
- 37:06Speaker 4: wonder when I was thinking about this. Do you out there,
- 37:10Speaker 4: as you drive in listening to the show, do you
- 37:12Speaker 4: have an unpopular opinion that you... just catch hell from
- 37:17Speaker 4: your friends over? Do you have one that you believe in?
- 37:23Speaker 4: Not that you'll die on this hill, but you just
- 37:27Speaker 4: know that none of your friends agree with this take. Like,
- 37:31Speaker 4: for instance, Will saying Fat Elvis is somehow.
- 37:33Speaker 1: No, I think many of my friends would agree with
- 37:36Speaker 1: me on that one.
- 37:37Speaker 4: They would all be wrong. If you have them, please
- 37:39Speaker 4: text them at 979-695-1620. I would like to make a
- 37:40Speaker 4: list of some of these. And also see how many
- 37:44Speaker 4: Will agrees with, frankly. Okay, we'll see.
- 37:47Speaker 1: We'll see. I'm feeling fairly agreeable today.
- 37:51Speaker 4: Gospel Elvis.
- 37:52Speaker 1: Yeah, better than Fat Elvis.
- 37:54Speaker 4: Says Jason, Gospel Elvis was the prime Elvis.
- 37:58Speaker 1: I don't know if it was prime.
- 37:59Speaker 4: Gospel was pretty dang good.
- 38:01Speaker 1: I'm going to rank him above Fat.
- 38:03Speaker 4: But it's the suits, the over-the-top, like. If you had
- 38:09Speaker 4: to pick one Elvis to meet, are you telling me
- 38:11Speaker 4: you wouldn't want to meet that Elvis?
- 38:13Speaker 1: This is equivalent. I see exactly where your heart is.
- 38:17Speaker 1: This is equivalent to your love of professional wrestling. You
- 38:20Speaker 1: like the Elvis that could have been a professional wrestler.
- 38:23Speaker 4: That Elvis could have.
- 38:24Speaker 1: Who inspired future professional wrestlers.
- 38:27Speaker 4: So many of those guys.
- 38:28Speaker 27: Yeah.
- 38:28Speaker 4: The presentation was inspired by the great Elvis Aaron Presley. David,
- 38:34Speaker 4: my popular opinion is Chick-fil-A is not that good. Dang, David,
- 38:43Speaker 4: you're starting us out strong. You're starting us out strong.
- 38:47Speaker 4: I have met others, David, who have that opinion. I'm
- 38:53Speaker 4: not one of them, but I have met others. And
- 38:56Speaker 4: I only say that to tell you that you are
- 38:59Speaker 4: not alone.
- 39:00Speaker 1: It's not fine dining. However, for a fast food place,
- 39:05Speaker 1: I will rank it as one of the best.
- 39:07Speaker 4: I personally would have to say, if you're talking fast food,
- 39:11Speaker 4: it's hard to argue that Chick-fil-A isn't either right at
- 39:15Speaker 4: the top or, you know.
- 39:17Speaker 1: All encompassing when it comes to products, service, that sort
- 39:22Speaker 1: of thing. And let's face it, go look at the
- 39:25Speaker 1: lines outside of the Chick-fil-A's and you tell me how
- 39:29Speaker 1: popular that thing is.
- 39:30Speaker 26: You know what?
- 39:30Speaker 4: That definitely would qualify based on the line as an
- 39:34Speaker 4: unpopular opinion. That can shut down traffic in most cities.
- 39:39Speaker 1: You can.
- 39:40Speaker 4: It's absolutely unheard of. I did want to talk about
- 39:44Speaker 4: this because I.
- 39:47Speaker 4: I didn't know that someone had put a name to this.
- 39:50Speaker 4: Have you ever heard of irritable male syndrome?
- 39:53Speaker 1: Not until this morning.
- 39:54Speaker 4: Neither had I. Irritable male syndrome, or IMS, collection of
- 39:59Speaker 4: symptoms associated with age-related testosterone decline.
- 40:03Speaker 1: You know what this sounds like?
- 40:04Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 40:05Speaker 1: Something that was made up by women.
- 40:08Speaker 4: They say it is not yet an official medical diagnosis.
- 40:12Speaker 1: I'm not grumpy. You're just irritating me.
- 40:15Speaker 4: They're saying that, yes, this is the reason that we
- 40:19Speaker 4: become grumpy old men.
- 40:21Speaker 1: No, we've just had enough.
- 40:22Speaker 4: It's because of low tea.
- 40:23Speaker 1: We've had enough.
- 40:25Speaker 4: We've had enough.
- 40:26Speaker 1: We've had enough. We've reached our limits.
- 40:28Speaker 4: When you get a certain amount of experience in life,
- 40:32Speaker 4: you just, it's not, I swear to you, it's not
- 40:35Speaker 4: my tea. It's just, it's everything other than my tea.
- 40:40Speaker 1: The T?
- 40:42Speaker 4: Did you mean taxes? That's likely. Yeah, there's a lot
- 40:48Speaker 4: of things that go into this. Just not my testosterone.
- 40:52Speaker 1: Dr.
- 40:52Speaker 4: Gerald Lincoln apparently coined this term in 2001. Symptoms, irritability,
- 40:57Speaker 4: low motivation, fatigue, trouble concentrating, sleep problems, loss of muscle mass,
- 41:03Speaker 4: increased body fat, all.
- 41:05Speaker 1: Of these things. That sounds like freshman year in college
- 41:10Speaker 1: is what that sounds like.
- 41:16Speaker 4: Yeah, that is exactly. Who has to wait for their 40s? Yeah.
- 41:21Speaker 1: Irritable male syndrome is available to you at any age.
- 41:25Speaker 5: Hi, this is Neil Sperry, and I'll be back with
- 41:27Speaker 5: today's Plant Talk Texas right after a word from our
- 41:30Speaker 5: sponsor and friends at Producers.

- 42:04Speaker 5: important part of your own gardening supplies, save your community
- 42:07Speaker 5: lots of public space, enrich your gardening activities in the process,
- 42:12Speaker 5: and save money to boot? Well, there is such a
- 42:14Speaker 5: way and it's anything but new. It's composting and this
- 42:17Speaker 5: is its time of year. I'll be back with details
- 42:20Speaker 5: right after this message.
- 42:22Speaker 14: Winter rye grass rescue grass annual bluegrass and others even
- 42:26Speaker 14: many of the broadleaf weeds this is your time to
- 42:29Speaker 14: prevent them with high yield turf and ornamental weed and
- 42:32Speaker 14: grass stopper containing dimension spread it over your lawn now
- 42:36Speaker 14: before the weed seeds sprout and be weed free for
- 42:38Speaker 14: the season apply it to your flower beds and around
- 42:41Speaker 14: shrubs it's even safe on any type of lawn grass
- 42:45Speaker 14: as long as it's been through its first winter water
- 42:47Speaker 14: it into the soil and you'll be done but get
- 42:50Speaker 14: it done now apply it again in the spring and
- 42:53Speaker 14: early summer to prevent crab grass and grass high-yield turf
- 42:57Speaker 14: and ornamental weed and grass stopper containing Dimension. Fertilome and
- 43:00Speaker 14: high-yield products are available only at independent retail garden centers
- 43:04Speaker 14: and feed stores, places where you can get help from
- 43:07Speaker 14: local experts who care about your community. For more than
- 43:10Speaker 14: 50 years, Fertilome and high-yield have been helping Texans have
- 43:14Speaker 14: weed-free lawns. Find your local dealer at Fertilome.com. High-yield turf
- 43:19Speaker 14: and ornamental weed and grass stopper containing Dimension. See the
- 43:22Speaker 14: label for full directions.
- 43:25Speaker 5: If you've been intending to get a compost pile up
- 43:27Speaker 5: and running, do it now. A large percentage of the
- 43:30Speaker 5: organic matter your landscape will generate over the course of
- 43:32Speaker 5: the entire gardening year will come in the next several weeks.
- 43:36Speaker 5: You're still cutting the grass and most of your trees
- 43:39Speaker 5: and many of your shrubs are ready to start shedding
- 43:41Speaker 5: their foliage for the winter dormant season. Add to that
- 43:44Speaker 5: all the stubble left over when you clean your flower
- 43:46Speaker 5: and vegetable gardens this fall. You can hardly afford to
- 43:49Speaker 5: go without a compost pile any longer. There are several
- 43:53Speaker 5: prerequisites to a successful compost pile, whether it's preformed hard plastic,
- 43:57Speaker 5: a simple enclosure made from galvanizing fencing, or a more
- 44:01Speaker 5: permanent structure built from pressure-treated timbers or concrete blocks. The
- 44:05Speaker 5: compost pile needs to have its own home, located in
- 44:09Speaker 5: the outback of your garden where it's screened from public view.
- 44:13Speaker 5: In fact, avid gardeners often have two compost piles, one
- 44:16Speaker 5: that's currently working and the second one that's ready for use.
- 44:20Speaker 5: Grind the organic matter up as finely as you can.
- 44:22Speaker 5: Use your mower, or better still, invest in a shredder
- 44:25Speaker 5: grinder to pulverize the leaves, stems, and other debris. Keep
- 44:28Speaker 5: the compost moist at all times. Dry compost decays much
- 44:32Speaker 5: more slowly. By the same token, if you'll add one
- 44:35Speaker 5: cup of complete and balanced fertilizer per cubic yard of compost,
- 44:40Speaker 5: you'll speed up the work of the microorganisms that cause
- 44:43Speaker 5: the decay. Mixing some of your garden soil with the
- 44:46Speaker 5: shredded organic matter will also make a big difference. It
- 44:49Speaker 5: brings in the microbes. You'll have the best compost if
- 44:53Speaker 5: you turn the pile often with a spading fork at
- 44:55Speaker 5: least once a month to get oxygen down into it. Oh,
- 44:58Speaker 5: and it's also a good idea to cover it with
- 45:00Speaker 5: black plastic to soak up the sun's rays during the winter.
- 45:04Speaker 5: You'll know that your compost is ready for use in
- 45:06Speaker 5: the garden when you can no longer recognize its individual components.
- 45:10Speaker 5: At that point, you'll be able to work several inches
- 45:12Speaker 5: of compost into the soil, either by spading or better
- 45:15Speaker 5: and easier by rototilling, down 8 or 10 or 12 inches.
- 45:19Speaker 5: It can be used in addition to peat moss, shredded
- 45:21Speaker 5: bark mulch, rotted manures, and other forms of organic matter.
- 45:25Speaker 5: And if you're improving a clay soil, one inch of
- 45:27Speaker 5: expanded shale will help as well. Now, the organic matter
- 45:31Speaker 5: will loosen tight clays as they break down. You have
- 45:34Speaker 5: to keep replenishing the compost every year. as you rework
- 45:38Speaker 5: the soil because it does decay and then it's gone. Oh,
- 45:41Speaker 5: and thin layer composting. If you have tree leaves on
- 45:44Speaker 5: your lawn, if they're not too thick, you can run
- 45:46Speaker 5: the shredder over them, the mower, the mulcher, and just
- 45:49Speaker 5: leave them right there to compost on their own.
- 45:52Speaker 1: This is Neal Sperry.
- 45:53Speaker 5: Things to do now in our next Plant Talk Texas.
- 45:56Speaker 5: Until then, happy gardening.

- 47:59Speaker 35: The Aggie football team will be playing against Arkansas for
- 48:02Speaker 35: the third time ever in college stations since the Aggies
- 48:05Speaker 35: joined the SEC on Saturday night. Head coach Mike Elko
- 48:09Speaker 35: spoke about the significance of this week's game and the
- 48:12Speaker 35: university's celebrations with it.
- 48:14Speaker 18: Excited to start the 150th anniversary kickoff Saturday night. Obviously
- 48:19Speaker 18: a huge thing for this university and honored that they're
- 48:22Speaker 18: going to start the kickoff celebration at a football game.
- 48:25Speaker 18: Pretty cool that we're able to break out the camo
- 48:27Speaker 18: uniforms as it kind of, I think, symbolizes what this
- 48:30Speaker 18: university stands for. Excited for that opportunity. And I think
- 48:34Speaker 18: just start with what I told the guys this morning.
- 48:36Speaker 18: I think when you're in a position where you're facing adversity,
- 48:40Speaker 18: where things aren't going the way that you hoped, the
- 48:43Speaker 18: only thing you can do is come together and work.
- 48:45Speaker 18: That's the only option you have. You've got to commit
- 48:47Speaker 18: to a process that's going to allow the results to
- 48:50Speaker 18: change somehow, some way. And so we can't want it
- 48:53Speaker 18: to happen. We can't talk about it happening. There's no
- 48:55Speaker 18: magic words. We've got to identify the issues and we've
- 48:58Speaker 18: got to go to attack it every single day. So
- 49:01Speaker 18: we had a good practice this morning. We had to
- 49:02Speaker 18: come out and have a great week of preparation and
- 49:05Speaker 18: then go out Saturday and perform at the level that
- 49:07Speaker 18: we know we're capable of.
- 49:09Speaker 35: Coach Elko also spoke about what he sees from this
- 49:12Speaker 35: year's Arkansas team ahead of the matchup and what the
- 49:15Speaker 35: program will be facing on Saturday night.
- 49:17Speaker 18: I think it's a team that's forming its identity with
- 49:19Speaker 18: a new staff. A lot of respect for Coach Silverfield
- 49:22Speaker 18: and what he's done. Ran a really, really strong program
- 49:25Speaker 18: at Memphis, obviously coming off of a really strong victory
- 49:28Speaker 18: last week against a Tulsa team that had been playing
- 49:30Speaker 18: really good football. And so they're certainly going to come
- 49:33Speaker 18: in here now with a lot of confidence that they've
- 49:35Speaker 18: started to figure things out and are moving in a
- 49:37Speaker 18: direction they want to move. And so a team that's
- 49:39Speaker 18: going to give us an awful lot Saturday night for sure.
- 49:42Speaker 35: As well as how this matchup has historically always seemed
- 49:44Speaker 35: to come down to the fourth quarter in the Mike
- 49:47Speaker 35: Elko era.
- 49:48Speaker 18: I've played six of them now, and all six of
- 49:50Speaker 18: them have been that way. There's not one of the
- 49:53Speaker 18: six that I've played where five and one in it,
- 49:56Speaker 18: but every single one of them has been that. The
- 49:59Speaker 18: first one I played in was Donovan Wilson intercepting a
- 50:02Speaker 18: ball to end the game on the two-minute drive to
- 50:05Speaker 18: last year, the shootout going back and forth to my
- 50:08Speaker 18: first year as the head coach, Nick Skirton getting the sack.
- 50:11Speaker 18: It's just... That, to me, is how this game has
- 50:14Speaker 18: consistently played out. And so I don't know that you
- 50:17Speaker 18: project what Saturday will look like or play like, but
- 50:20Speaker 18: certainly that's been my history with this series, an extremely
- 50:23Speaker 18: competitive game. They're a really good program. They have gotten
- 50:27Speaker 18: up for this game and always played really well against us.
- 50:31Speaker 18: And so I certainly don't anticipate that being any different
- 50:34Speaker 18: on Saturday.
- 50:35Speaker 35: Kickoff for the A & M versus Arkansas game is
- 50:38Speaker 35: set for 6 o'clock on Saturday night. In Monday Night Football,
- 50:42Speaker 35: last night the Chicago Bears hosted the Philadelphia Eagles and
- 50:45Speaker 35: beat the Eagles 27-7. Ahead of last night's game, Bears
- 50:50Speaker 35: defensive coordinator Dennis Allen, who is a former A &
- 50:52Speaker 35: M standout safety and coaching graduate assistant, met with the
- 50:56Speaker 35: media to talk about what the Bears defense needed to
- 50:58Speaker 35: work on ahead of the matchup.
- 51:00Speaker 19: We've got to do a better job executing. and making
- 51:03Speaker 19: sure that we're eliminating mental mistakes in terms of just
- 51:06Speaker 19: not being exactly where we need to be and when
- 51:08Speaker 19: we need to be there. I think that's a big focus.
- 51:12Speaker 19: There's a lot of areas that we have to improve.
- 51:14Speaker 19: I think we've got to do a better job controlling
- 51:16Speaker 19: the line of scrimmage, both in the run game and
- 51:17Speaker 19: the pass game. And so we're working to try to
- 51:21Speaker 19: improve those things this week.
- 51:22Speaker 35: And the Bears defense did just that in last night's
- 51:25Speaker 35: game against the Eagles, only allowing one touchdown. And following
- 51:29Speaker 35: the game, Coach Allen was awarded a game ball. The
- 51:32Speaker 35: Aggie volleyball team moved up two spots in the AVCA
- 51:36Speaker 35: poll rankings, moving the program to the 14th spot. Head
- 51:40Speaker 35: coach Jamie Morrison met with the media to discuss what's
- 51:42Speaker 35: been going on with the program in the last week
- 51:45Speaker 35: and the progress the team has been making.
- 51:47Speaker 13: I think I alluded to it last week that we
- 51:49Speaker 13: were banged up. I think everyone saw the fruition of that.
- 51:51Speaker 13: But for the people that have stepped up to be
- 51:53Speaker 13: able to step up in the way they have, I
- 51:54Speaker 13: think it's a testament to our program, to the people
- 51:56Speaker 13: that we have in it. So overall, excited about what
- 51:58Speaker 13: has happened over the last week and then excited about
- 52:01Speaker 13: what's coming.
- 52:02Speaker 35: The Aggies are set to host Alabama for their second
- 52:04Speaker 35: SEC conference game of the year on Friday night at
- 52:07Speaker 35: Reed Arena with first serve set for 630. That's your
- 52:11Speaker 35: morning sports update brought to you by AirServe of Aggieland
- 52:14Speaker 35: on 1620-945-WTAW. I'm Riley Flurkey.
- 52:19Speaker 34: What kind of home do.
- 52:20Speaker 1: You live in? We live in a two-bedroom high-rise condo.
- 52:23Speaker 23: A three-bedroom family home in the suburbs.
- 52:26Speaker 27: A farmhouse on our family ranch passed down through generations.
- 52:31Speaker 34: It doesn't matter where you live or what kind of
- 52:33Speaker 34: home you have. You all have one thing in common.
- 52:36Speaker 34: Gina Hinojosa voted to increase your property taxes. Not once,
- 52:41Speaker 34: not twice, but 40 different times Gina Hinojosa voted to
- 52:45Speaker 34: raise your property taxes.
- 52:47Speaker 23: If she has her way, you'll be priced out.
- 52:50Speaker 34: Of your own home. Gina Hinojosa is too radical to
- 52:53Speaker 34: be governor of Texas. Luckily, Governor Greg Abbott has a
- 52:58Speaker 34: better plan.
- 52:59Speaker 30: We have to stop the insanity and instead give you
- 53:03Speaker 30: a different property tax relief that will do more than
- 53:06Speaker 30: cut your property tax bill in half forever. You're going
- 53:10Speaker 30: to be able to live in your home for the
- 53:11Speaker 30: rest of your lives without being priced out of it.
- 53:14Speaker 34: Greg Abbott, governor.
- 53:16Speaker 30: Political ad paid for by Texans for Greg Abbott.
- 53:19Speaker 4: 1620-945-WTAW, Jay Texan, an unpopular opinion that he had. He
- 53:24Speaker 4: said after the Ags left the Big 12 for the SEC,
- 53:29Speaker 4: he had the opinion that that we should have remained
- 53:32Speaker 4: playing Texas. And any person that visited his house and
- 53:36Speaker 4: still didn't want to play Texas was asked to leave.
- 53:40Speaker 1: Jay, I don't feel welcome in your home, Jay. He
- 53:44Speaker 1: would have tossed you right out, man.
- 53:47Speaker 4: Never again.
- 53:48Speaker 1: I'm just not going to show up, Jay.
- 53:49Speaker 4: Never again. No more will of Thanksgiving. That's going to
- 53:53Speaker 4: really affect the menu, my friend.
- 53:55Speaker 1: Yeah, it will.
- 53:56Speaker 4: Think of these things.
- 53:57Speaker 1: I was going to bring a great covered dish.
- 53:59Speaker 4: Yep, yep. Not anymore. Good morning, guys. It's going to
- 54:03Speaker 4: get up to the mid-90s today. We will have a
- 54:05Speaker 4: 20% chance of rain. Really, our best chance, like Will
- 54:08Speaker 4: has mentioned before, comes Thursday and Friday. But there is
- 54:11Speaker 4: a chance. Weather's brought to you by United Roofing and
