  Speaker 1: wife is talking politics ahead of the midterm election. State Rep.
• 1:56

• 2:23
  Speaker 2: even if they're mad at the person running for office.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: If we lose it to the other team, the nuances
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: that we want to fix with maybe a certain candidate
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: are nothing compared to what it's going to take.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: To get it back.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Russell Scott, TSN News.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Elon Musk is proposing a unique method of transportation, not

  Speaker 5: per hour. Brandon Wheeler, who heads the Alamo Area Metro
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: Planning Association, says he's eager to hear the details.
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: I think as a region, we need to be open
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: to what's out there because it'll take 20 to 25
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: years to put in place and really get going.
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: A tunnel has been talked about for more than one decade.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: At one point, Musk's tunneling company proposed a system that

  Speaker 5: would connect San Antonio's airport in downtown, but That has
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: since faded away. In San Antonio, Michael Board, TSN News.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: More news on the way at 630 or anytime at WTAW.com.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I'm Will Welch, 1620-945-WTAW. Good morning, everyone.
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: The level of noise that you are making when you
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: walk into the room now is really alarming.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Come on, Tucker. No, it's fine.
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: I'm fine with it. I feel bad for you. I
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: feel bad for you. Day three of the Will Welch
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: back incident.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: By the time I get to the room from the
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: news studio, I'm actually feeling a little bit better.
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: What? That's loose for you?
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, at this moment.
• 3:59
  Speaker 7: Will! Will!
• 4:01
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: What, what, how, how is this getting, how is this
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: getting worse? I I'd say, here's the thing. I, my,
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: my go-to whenever I was like, Hey, maybe it's time
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: to see a doctor. But then again, I think maybe
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: you're like me. Like people can tell you to see
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: a doctor all day long.
• 4:15
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: I'll get around to it.
• 4:17
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Pretty much. Pretty much. And, and my doctor's really easy
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: to connect with. I can do everything online and via phone.
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: Well, that's a plus.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: It is a plus. And I'm certain that I could, uh, Look,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: what I need is muscle relaxers. This is a paraspinal
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: muscle spasm. The first time I had one was when
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: I was 15 and probably, I don't know, since then
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: a dozen times. It doesn't happen all the time, but
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: when it does, I know exactly what it is. The
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: remedy is rest and muscle relaxers. My problem is nothing
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: in my life will allow me to rest and muscle
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: relaxers make me Really mean.
• 4:56
  Speaker 11: Mean?
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just become an unfettered jerk.
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: Really?
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just....
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: It's not red wine, Will.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just saying that certain things affect people certain ways,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: and muscle relaxers make me very unpleasant to be around.
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: What are you supposed to do?
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: There's a few things that have worked in the past,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: so I might call up the doctor if I'm not...
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: So Friday being tomorrow, if I'm not better by tomorrow,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I'll shoot a message to the doc. I'll get something
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: that'll take care of me over the weekend. Same thing
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: I did when I had my sinus infection a couple
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: of weeks ago.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: So I kind of know what I need. The doc
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: kind of knows that I know what I need. He
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: knows that I'm pretty wise.
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: Well, I can say that it's not crazy to... This
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: is the thing whenever... I get it.
• 5:42
  Speaker 12: Like, well, go see a doc.
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: I say it too. But the problem is if you
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: go to a doctor, like unless you have a really
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: good doctor, which... You have.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: I like mine, yeah.
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: If I go to a doctor, what they do is
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: just look at you and they're like, take some Tylenol. Yo,
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: I'm at the doctor, though. Like, I'm already past the
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: Tylenol point. This is a cry for help. What can
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: you do for me?
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've... I even found some Excedrin in my bag
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: this morning, and although it's the headache medicine, it'll probably.
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: Excedrin will do, yeah.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: It's got the caffeine in it. It's a Thursday show.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Like I say, never miss a Thursday show because we
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: tend to be really on on Thursdays.
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah. See, that's a plus.
• 6:20
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, I'm fired up, man.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: You know you're bad when you're going through your bag.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: You're like, something. I got to sit up for the
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: next three hours. I need something.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Here's a Rolaids. Will that help?
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: Weather today uh is it as nasty as it was
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: yesterday uh yeah okay now again another close call on
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: some of those showers.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Some people got some showers yeah.
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: Y'all got a few y'all cashed in today they're not
• 6:45

• 6:51
  Speaker 6: high as 106 down to 71 tonight Only 95 for Friday.
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: Then only 94 for Saturday. Is it a trend?
• 7:01
  Speaker 11: No.
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: The good stuff happens, I think, later on next week.
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: And sure enough, as Will mentioned, by Wednesday, showers and
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: thunderstorms likely, partly sunny, with highs in the mid-80s.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got that still staying in the forecast. We'll
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: see what the weekend holds. But I've got rain chances
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: starting late on Tuesday. And highs... Throughout the rest of
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the week, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, next week, highs will
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: not hit the 90s. Love it.
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: Weather is brought to you by Malik Service Company. The

• 7:51
  Speaker 6: Seriously, have you ever done yoga?
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: No, I've never gotten into that. And I've always avoided
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: stretching because that was when the coaches yelled at me
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: the most. Really? Welch, you can't touch your toes!
• 8:05
  Speaker 11: I'm trying.
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: I'm trying. I don't have wingspan, coach. What am I

  Speaker 6: It is Thursday. We're very happy you are here. Let's

  Speaker 6: have a show.

  Speaker 14: What kind of home do you live in?
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: We live in a two bedroom high rise condo.
• 8:25
  Speaker 15: A three bedroom family home in the suburbs.
• 8:28
  Speaker 7: A farmhouse on our family ranch passed down through generations.

  Speaker 14: It doesn't matter where you live or what kind of
• 8:36
  Speaker 14: home you have. You all have one thing in common.
• 8:39
  Speaker 14: Gina Hinojosa voted to increase your property taxes. Not once,
• 8:43
  Speaker 14: not twice, but 40 different times Gina Hinojosa voted to
• 8:48
  Speaker 14: raise your property taxes. If she has her way, you'll
• 8:51
  Speaker 14: be priced out of your own home. Gina Hinojosa is
• 8:55
  Speaker 14: too radical to be governor of Texas. Luckily, Governor Greg
• 8:59
  Speaker 14: Abbott has a better plan.
• 9:01
  Speaker 16: We have to stop the insanity and instead give you
• 9:06
  Speaker 16: a different property tax relief that will do more than
• 9:09
  Speaker 16: cut your property tax bill in half forever. You're going
• 9:12
  Speaker 16: to be able to live in your home for the
• 9:14
  Speaker 16: rest of your lives without being priced.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Out of it.
• 9:17
  Speaker 14: Greg Abbott, governor.

  Speaker 6: come up with tomorrow. Now, in the meantime today, a
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: couple of days of note, Lash Stylists Day.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Lash Stylists Day.
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: To me, ladies, love a good beauty bar.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, they do.
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: This is a good day to recognize the women that
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: help you, or men. What do I know? help you
• 12:04
  Speaker 6: with your lash game.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: When the whole lash thing exploded, my oldest daughter became
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: so good at putting on lashes that she was responsible
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: for the lash excellence on the cheer team. And people would,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: would actually ask her and sometimes pay her to come
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: put their lashes on.
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: Hey man, it's a, it's a powerful side hustle.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: My wife cannot put the lashes on. I'm not sure
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: what she's going to do when our youngest daughter leaves
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: the house next year.
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: Don't know what that's going to add. You're just going
• 12:34
  Speaker 6: to give up. No longer will you have luxurious lashes.
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: By the way, do you know the story of the
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: artificial eyelash?
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 12:42
  Speaker 6: It goes back to the late 1800s where women would
• 12:44
  Speaker 6: sew human hair into their eyelids to create longer lashes.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: I said sew.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: Into their eyelids.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: The false eyelashes went nuts. I've been in the 70s,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: maybe the early 80s. I have a cousin who I've
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: mentioned before. She had money, then she married serious money.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: She was my dad's first cousin. My grandmother had a
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: garage sale, and Cousin Dottie said, hey, I've got some
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: things I would like to put into the garage sale.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know what else she brought, but she brought...
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: I believe it was four tackle boxes full of false eyelashes.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Tackle boxes? They were fishing tackle boxes.
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: You know, it's shockingly similar to making fly fishing lures,
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: I would imagine.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Very similar, I'm guessing.
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: It's shockingly similar.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: But she had them organized in there. Of course. Yeah.
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: Cherry's Jubilee Day.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I spent so long since I've had a cherries jubilee.
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: There's only there's a few places in the general area.
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: Brennan's comes to mind. I don't mind taking a drive
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: down to Houston. I would highly recommend taking a drive
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: down to.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Use at the end of that road.
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: But it is observed every 24th. It's generally associated with
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: French chef Auguste Escoffier. Oh, the Escoffier.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: The Escoffier?
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: Escoffier, yeah. That's like King Chef.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Sacre bleu!
• 14:09
  Speaker 6: And Queen Victoria's Jubilee celebrations.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Hence, cherries everywhere. jubilee maybe i i mean like i
• 14:16

  Speaker 6: They were Christians, not the right kind of Christians. So
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: they had to go. They had to go. And where
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: do you go in that situation in 1730? You get
• 15:00
  Speaker 6: on a boat, you come to America where you can
• 15:03
  Speaker 6: be free. So they showed up in Philadelphia on September 22nd, 1734,
• 15:09
  Speaker 6: three months after they started. And apparently it was a
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: bad three months.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know that there were many ocean crossings in
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: the 1700s that you could call good.
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: That's a fair point, Will. It's something we need to
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: remember whenever we travel, that it could always be much,
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: much worse.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 15:28
  Speaker 6: Because usually when you get off a particularly bad flight,
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: you don't necessarily found your own holiday. But that's what
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: the Schweckenfelders did. They held a day of Thanksgiving in
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: remembrance for their safe arrival and for all of those
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: who had died during the journey.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: You're always going to lose about 10%.
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: Here's the interesting part. They kept doing this for 300
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: more years. The original observance, by the way, not really
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: a giant feast like we think about it. You go
• 15:57
  Speaker 6: to church and you eat the following. By the way,
• 16:00
  Speaker 6: so this is their Thanksgiving.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Do they still exist?
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a few Schweckenfelders out there still to this
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: very day. Bread, butter, apple butter, water. That's the Thanksgiving.
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: That's the spread.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: And you're grateful for it. I mean, I like a
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: good apple butter, and there's nothing wrong with some good
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: homemade bread. Hard pass.
• 16:24
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: Hard, hard, hard. pass. But if you did want to
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: have an early Thanksgiving, why would you want to? This
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: doesn't involve turkey or dressing.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: I'm going to try to implement this at the house tonight.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: I was planning on cooking something fancy.
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: Happy Schweckenfelders, everyone.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: We're going to have bread, butter, apple butter.
• 16:42
  Speaker 11: And water.
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: You know what it'll make you? Thankful for tomorrow.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: And that's the point, isn't it?
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: That's the point. What do you have on birthdays?
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Birthday is actually a very, very short list today. I
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: was pretty actually shocked about it. Ben Platt is 33
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: years old today. He is Evan in Dear Evan Hansen.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: He's also Benji in the Pitch Perfect movies. Jessica Lucas
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: is 41. Billy Sutton on The Resident. Tabitha on Gotham.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: And Riley Richmond on the Melrose Place reboot.
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: Huh.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: I knew that there was a Melrose Place reboot.
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: This really is slim pickings.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was thinking as to why.
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: We're down to D-list teen actors.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Well, here we go. We have off of D and
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: on to, I think, at least C.
• 17:28
  Speaker 19: Okay.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Stephanie McMahon is 50 years old today. That's a WWE wrestler.
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: How old is Steph?
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: 50.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: She's 50.
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: Big 5-0.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: Big 5-0.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Stephanie is one of those people. Well, first of all,
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: she's Vince McMahon's daughter, so that helps.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: But, yeah, it's amazing the transition she went through from
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: on-screen performer and heel to pretty much public face of
• 17:49
  Speaker 6: the nice part of the company because people like Steph.
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: And she's also married to Triple H. People genuinely like Steph.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: She must have got that from her mom. She did.
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: You know what? Considering the two of them, I don't
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: know who she got that from. I have no clue.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: It's a recessive gene that just popped up someplace.
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: That said, there's not a lot of people in WWE
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: management who are likable. It's a weird thing. UFC, owned
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: by the same company as Dana White, which you have
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: opinions on Dana White, but Dana has a little bit
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: of the riz. You get Dana White. You understand it.
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: No one in the WWE that's at the top has
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: ever been particularly like, oh, yeah, that's a guy I
• 18:33
  Speaker 6: enjoy seeing. Just not their game. Not considered.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: All right, we've got Nia Vardalos. She's 64 from My
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Big Fat Greek Wedding. Oh, yeah. Kevin Sorbo.
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: Kevin Sorbo.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Hercules. That's right. And he likes to be on the
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: socials these days.
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: Hercules and politics.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:50
  Speaker 6: That's his jam.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: 68 years old today. Good Lord. One of my first
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: athletic heroes. And I actually... to the dismay of my
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: great aunt, Stell, who happens to be my cousin, Dottie's mom,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: by the way, if you're following along, uh, who was
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: a Dallas Cowboys fan and prompt me on her knee
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: when I was just old enough to do so. And
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: I thought Tom Landry was adjacent to Jesus. Um, I
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: got a mean Joe green Jersey in 1977. Uh, mean
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Joe green is 80 years old today.
• 19:20
  Speaker 6: Mean Joe green still with us.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: He is still with us.
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: That's although pretty great.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: It was just a year or so ago. There was
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: something that popped out on the internet saying he had died.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: And much like Mark Twain, he came out and said the, uh,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: Good for me.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately, onto the stiffs and the reports of this guy's
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: death were not exaggerated. Phil Hartman was born on this
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: date in 1948. Very funny guy. He was gone too soon.
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: How old did Phil get to?
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Well, he was killed in 1998. Yes, he was. So
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: I'm going to guess that's, if I'm doing my math correctly,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: I'm going to say that's 50.
• 19:57
  Speaker 6: 50 years old.
• 19:58
  Speaker 18: Yeah.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: 50 years old.
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: It's insane how good he was.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: How little time he kind of got at the top.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Cause he was late. He was kind of late blooming.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: He was boom.
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: And definitely murdered at the peak of what he was
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: pulling off. I mean, what Simpsons news radio, obviously a
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: million movies, Saturday night live million things. Yeah, man, that's,
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: that's a shame.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: Linda McCartney was born on the state of 1941. And finally,
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: Jim Henson born on the state of 1936.
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: Talking about gone too soon. That's the guy.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: For sure.
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: That is the dude.
• 20:37
  Speaker 16: Man.
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: Man, the stiffs are better than the real ones.
• 20:40
  Speaker 19: Yeah.
• 20:41
  Speaker 6: All right, we'll take a break. We'll talk news. That's

• 34:12
  Speaker 12: Yes.
• 34:12
  Speaker 6: Again.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: And you're including us as in you. Are you in
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: my generation?
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: No, I'm the I'm one of the oldest millennials. OK,
• 34:20
  Speaker 6: so I'm right. But it's, you know, millennials, we used
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: to do this, too. Like everything from people that were
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: a little bit older got on our nerves and we
• 34:26
  Speaker 6: tried to tell them, hey, this is how you need
• 34:28
  Speaker 6: to change. It's going to happen to you, too, Gen Z.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's coming.
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: It's you're going to you're going to realize how smart
• 34:35
  Speaker 6: we are at some point. It's going to come back
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: on you. You remember I told you about the passive-aggressive
• 34:41
  Speaker 6: thumbs-up emoji, which is really unfortunate in this community.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: Very unfortunate. And now every time I use it, I'm like,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: is the person on the other end thinking I'm being passive-aggressive?
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: The answer is yes. And then the Gen Z comes
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: out on me, and I say, I don't care.
• 34:58
  Speaker 6: So there's another one, which I have heard people say. Millennials,
• 35:04
  Speaker 6: like myself, And other people in my generation are big
• 35:06
  Speaker 6: fans of the ha-ha or LOL at the end of
• 35:08
  Speaker 6: a text.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: Sometimes, yeah.
• 35:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, they hate that. Gen Z hates that. Can't stand it.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 35:13
  Speaker 6: They have a problem with it. They say it's odd
• 35:16
  Speaker 6: because you're not actually laughing out loud. They're asking us
• 35:19
  Speaker 6: to all stop because it comes across as a passive-aggressive
• 35:22
  Speaker 6: sign-off to just drop an LOL. It's like you're laughing
• 35:24
  Speaker 6: at them, perhaps.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: I don't. Again, just like the thumbs up, I don't
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: understand it. I'm not one of these people that is
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: asking millennials to stop ending every text with LOL. I
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: don't care that much.
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: Do any of you have kids that are Gen Z?
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: You do.
• 35:40
  Speaker 6: You have two of them.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: Are they Gen Z?
• 35:42
  Speaker 6: I don't know. All right, hold on. Checking the board.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I can't see that from here.
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: Were your daughters born in between 1997 and 2012? Well, yes. Okay,
• 35:51
  Speaker 6: you got two Gen Z-ers, boy.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 35:53
  Speaker 6: You got two. You got a couple. So I'm going
• 35:56
  Speaker 6: to guess many of you have. Ages 13 to 28
• 35:59
  Speaker 6: is Gen Z, right? So if you got a kid
• 36:02
  Speaker 6: between the ages of 13 and 28, has anyone just
• 36:05
  Speaker 6: asked them what we're supposed to do? Because I feel
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: like what we're getting is a lot of backseat driving
• 36:12
  Speaker 6: when it comes to our texting. And I don't hear
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: a solution being pitched by Gen Z. I don't say, well, no,
• 36:21
  Speaker 6: just do this. I just hear why we suck.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 36:24
  Speaker 6: I don't like that.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: I don't like it much either.
• 36:25
  Speaker 6: I'm a solution-oriented human.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Some of the language that they're using in this story,
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: by the way, is a little invoking of a whoopin'.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: One millennial responded to this by saying, Dear Gen Z,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: submit this request in cursive writing in triplicate and we
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: will consider it LOL. Another said.
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: Because y'all can't physically write.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Another one said, you can prime my LOL for my cold,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: dead hands, Gen Z. LOL. I like that.
• 36:59
  Speaker 6: Are you all capsing the LOL now? Because I used
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: to just kind of drop it with the lowercase, but
• 37:03
  Speaker 6: now I feel like I'm going.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: To emphasize it. Man, that's another thing. I mean, you
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: go back and forth on what should be capitalized and
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: what shouldn't be capitalized.
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: Or grammar, just grammar in general.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: Just grammar in general is not anyone's strong suit anymore. Yeah,
• 37:18
  Speaker 6: I don't know what you're supposed to put at the
• 37:20
  Speaker 6: end of these things.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Well, there are some alternatives that have been suggested.
• 37:24
  Speaker 6: Are you serious?
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 37:25
  Speaker 6: We have alternatives.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: We have alternatives. You can use L-A-L. Laughed a little. L-I-M-H.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: Laughed inside my head. Here's one for you. D-B-I-A-S-W.
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: Depressed but in a silly way. What? W-T-H-S. What the hell?
• 37:46
  Speaker 27: Sure.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: This one's long. Stay with me now. A-C-O-O-M-N.
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: Pause. I want to follow along with you, so I'm
• 37:58
  Speaker 6: going to ask you to read it again so I
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: can try to crack this code.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Okay. The D-B-I-A-S-W. Depressed, but in a silly way.
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: Okay, no, I got that one.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: Okay. The new one.
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: I'm thinking the new one.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Okay. A-C-O-O-M-N.
• 38:13
  Speaker 6: A-C-O-O-M-N. A-C-O-O-M-N.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: You want to try to guess this one?
• 38:18
  Speaker 6: No, there's no way I'm going to get there.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: No, there's not. Air came out of my nose.
• 38:25
  Speaker 6: The lowest effort laugh, y'all. The lowest effort laugh. This
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: is the lowest effort laugh.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: Oh, is it? The LBO.
• 38:31
  Speaker 15: Yeah.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: Laughing by obligation.
• 38:38
  Speaker 6: All right, I'm sold.
• 38:38
  Speaker 18: Hi, this is Neil Sperry, and I'll be back with
• 38:41
  Speaker 18: today's Plant Talk Texas right after a word from our
• 38:43
  Speaker 18: sponsor and friends at Producers.
• 38:46
  Speaker 8: Ranchers, it's time for you to plan your cattle feed
• 38:49
  Speaker 8: and mineral requirements for your winter feeding program. Take advantage
• 38:53
  Speaker 8: of bulk contract prices and place your order at Producers
• 38:56
  Speaker 8: Cooperative between September 25th and October 17th.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: Reserve your feed and minerals.
• 39:02
  Speaker 8: Now and pick up or take delivery as you need them.
• 39:05
  Speaker 8: Contracting runs September 25th through October 17th at Producers Cooperative.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: Everything nutrition since 1943.
• 39:16
  Speaker 18: No gardener likes to see the end of the growing season,
• 39:19
  Speaker 18: but we're just a couple of months from that fateful
• 39:21
  Speaker 18: first freeze, less than that in parts of Texas. Inevitably,
• 39:24
  Speaker 18: there are more plants than there are places to put them.
• 39:27
  Speaker 18: Something has to go, and it's your job to determine
• 39:30
  Speaker 18: which plants are hauled inside for the winter and which
• 39:32
  Speaker 18: are left outdoors to freeze. I'll be back with suggestions
• 39:36
  Speaker 18: right after this message. winter rye grass rescue grass annual
• 39:40
  Speaker 18: bluegrass and others even many of the broad-leafed weeds this
• 39:44
  Speaker 18: is your time to prevent them with high yield turf

• 39:59
  Speaker 18: type of lawn grass as long as it's been through

• 40:04
  Speaker 18: be done but get it done now apply it again
• 40:07
  Speaker 18: in the spring and early summer to prevent crab grass
• 40:10
  Speaker 18: and grass High-yield turf and ornamental weed and grass stopper
• 40:14
  Speaker 18: containing Dimension. Fertilome and high-yield products are available only at
• 40:18
  Speaker 18: independent retail garden centers and feed stores, places where you
• 40:21
  Speaker 18: can get help from local experts who care about your community.
• 40:25
  Speaker 27: For more than 50 years, Fertilome and high-yield have been
• 40:28
  Speaker 27: helping Texans have weed-free lawns. Find your local dealer at Fertilome.com.
• 40:34
  Speaker 27: High-yield turf and ornamental weed and grass stopper containing Dimension.
• 40:37
  Speaker 27: See the label for full directions.
• 40:40
  Speaker 18: Your first criterion in determining which plants ought to be
• 40:43
  Speaker 18: saved ought to be those plants that are irreplaceable and
• 40:47
  Speaker 18: those plants which would be expensive to replace next growing season.
• 40:51
  Speaker 18: Perhaps you've developed a collection of scented leaf geraniums or
• 40:54
  Speaker 18: cutting grown coleus that would be almost impossible to reassemble.
• 40:57
  Speaker 18: Maybe you have several pots of especially nice tropical hibiscus, bromeliads,
• 41:01
  Speaker 18: or succulents. Those are plants that get the first lifeboat indoors.
• 41:06
  Speaker 18: At the other end of the spectrum would be inexpensive,
• 41:08
  Speaker 18: quick-to-grow plants that are readily available every spring in Texas nurseries.
• 41:13
  Speaker 18: Don't bother to save wax begonias, hybrid purslane, or impatiens.
• 41:16
  Speaker 18: They're fussy, and they don't carry through the dark days
• 41:19
  Speaker 18: of winter very well, and the plants never seem quite
• 41:21
  Speaker 18: as vigorous as you'd expect the second time around. If
• 41:25
  Speaker 18: you have large houseplants and hanging baskets that have been
• 41:27
  Speaker 18: rejuvenating outdoors over the summer, get them inside before it
• 41:31
  Speaker 18: starts to turn really cold. Some plants are damaged by
• 41:34
  Speaker 18: temperatures well above freezing. Firebush, tropical hibiscus, bougainvilleas, Diefenbachias, Chinese
• 41:40
  Speaker 18: evergreens all decline quickly when temperatures drop below 45 or
• 41:45
  Speaker 18: 50 degrees. Don't leave them outside until the first freeze
• 41:49
  Speaker 18: or you're likely to have bare stems to bring back
• 41:51
  Speaker 18: indoors for the winter. The most common question out of
• 41:55
  Speaker 18: all of this is can I put these plants in
• 41:56
  Speaker 18: the garage when it's cold? And the bad news is
• 41:59
  Speaker 18: that there's no clear-cut answer. If you're willing to shuttle
• 42:02
  Speaker 18: them in and out of the garage, then you'll be fine,
• 42:04
  Speaker 18: but that is a labor. Texas is comparatively warm many
• 42:09
  Speaker 18: winter days. The farther south you go, the more that's true.
• 42:13
  Speaker 18: You probably won't have more than 20 or 30 or
• 42:15
  Speaker 18: 35 days and nights in which you'll need to leave
• 42:18
  Speaker 18: the plants confined to the warmer quarters. Nonetheless, moving plants
• 42:22
  Speaker 18: gets really old after a couple of months, and invariably
• 42:25
  Speaker 18: you mess up, you get stuck at work, or something
• 42:28
  Speaker 18: happens and your plants freeze. If you have unusual lantana,
• 42:32
  Speaker 18: chenille plants, joseph's coat, bloodleaf, coleus, geraniums, a lot of
• 42:36
  Speaker 18: other plants, you can take cuttings. Look up online. See
• 42:40
  Speaker 18: how cuttings are rooted and then potted up. Small plants
• 42:43
  Speaker 18: are easier to save in the winter. Some plants that
• 42:46
  Speaker 18: are sold and grown as annuals will come back the
• 42:48
  Speaker 18: following after average or mild winters. That really depends on
• 42:52
  Speaker 18: where you are in Texas, and I would really not
• 42:54
  Speaker 18: count on things to come back. You can always buy
• 42:57
  Speaker 18: new transplants. Caladiums, I don't believe you're going to be
• 43:01
  Speaker 18: ahead by trying to save those tubers. People do it once,
• 43:04
  Speaker 18: and they hate it. Bananas are perfectly capable of surviving
• 43:08
  Speaker 18: most of Texas if you'll mulch some. Those are a
• 43:11
  Speaker 18: few things. We're going to talk about bad things we
• 43:13
  Speaker 18: do to good trees in our next program. Until then,

  Speaker 32: Good morning. I'm Riley Flurkey with your morning sports update
• 44:32
  Speaker 32: on 1620-945-WTAW. The A & M soccer team returns to
• 44:37
  Speaker 32: Ellis Field tonight to take on the seventh-ranked Alabama for
• 44:40
  Speaker 32: its annual Turnit Gold match. The Aggies sit 14th in
• 44:44
  Speaker 32: SEC standings with zero points after the second week of
• 44:47
  Speaker 32: conference play and look to earn their first points of
• 44:51
  Speaker 32: the season against a ranked Alabama team. Head coach Bobby
• 44:55
  Speaker 32: Shuttleworth spoke about how his team is responding in practice
• 44:58
  Speaker 32: and growing after their first two losses in SEC play.
• 45:01
  Speaker 33: You know, it's obviously, it's not easy. The last two results,
• 45:04
  Speaker 33: the Kentucky game is a, it's a frustrating game. It's
• 45:07
  Speaker 33: a disappointing way to lose that game. And then you
• 45:09
  Speaker 33: step into Vanderbilt and obviously we get punished for those mistakes,
• 45:12
  Speaker 33: like I'm talking about. And, and on the road for
• 45:15
  Speaker 33: the first two games in the SEC schedule with a
• 45:18
  Speaker 33: young team. And, you know, we, you know, you could
• 45:20
  Speaker 33: see from our game in Kentucky that there were some
• 45:23
  Speaker 33: nerves going into that game. So Like I've said, I
• 45:26
  Speaker 33: think our team continues to grow, and we have, I think,
• 45:29
  Speaker 33: you know, in that SEC game, I think we started
• 45:32
  Speaker 33: first game, I think we started seven freshmen. So they've
• 45:34
  Speaker 33: never experienced SEC soccer before, and now they have, and
• 45:38
  Speaker 33: they'll be better for those experiences, and we've just got
• 45:40
  Speaker 33: to continue to grow and stay united within our group
• 45:43
  Speaker 33: and keep doing the things that we know will put
• 45:44
  Speaker 33: us in positions to be successful.
• 45:46
  Speaker 32: First kick for tonight's match against Alabama is set for
• 45:49
  Speaker 32: seven o'clock. The Aggie football team is two days away
• 45:52
  Speaker 32: from hitting the road for the first time this season
• 45:55
  Speaker 32: and taking on the LSU Tigers. Head coach Mike Elko
• 45:59
  Speaker 32: met with the media to discuss the process of balancing
• 46:02
  Speaker 32: being analytical over the loss and also preparing for this
• 46:05
  Speaker 32: Saturday's game. It's not the.
• 46:06
  Speaker 19: First time we've lost a game. It certainly won't be
• 46:09
  Speaker 19: the last. Again, that's not dismissing it in any way, shape,
• 46:12
  Speaker 19: or form, but I think we are very analytical of
• 46:14
  Speaker 19: everything that happens every week, and so whether that's in
• 46:17
  Speaker 19: a win over Arizona State or a loss to Kentucky,
• 46:20
  Speaker 19: I think you come in and you really analyze what happened,
• 46:23
  Speaker 19: where the breakdowns were, what caused the breakdowns, how to
• 46:26
  Speaker 19: try to improve it going into the next week. I
• 46:29
  Speaker 19: think that's what you do as a coach, and so
• 46:31
  Speaker 19: that's always the process, and then I think you come
• 46:33
  Speaker 19: out of that and you've got to develop a mindset
• 46:35
  Speaker 19: going forward into next week, and so I don't know
• 46:38
  Speaker 19: that those two things conflict with each other. I think
• 46:40
  Speaker 19: it's a It's a process that you go through as
• 46:42
  Speaker 19: a coach every week.
• 46:43
  Speaker 32: Coach Elko also spoke about Mario Craver getting more action
• 46:47
  Speaker 32: during the Kentucky game.
• 46:48
  Speaker 19: I think so. I think obviously we felt like the
• 46:51
  Speaker 19: week before we weren't able to get it to him
• 46:52
  Speaker 19: as much as we would have liked. I think some
• 46:55
  Speaker 19: of the way they were playing coverage created a few
• 46:57
  Speaker 19: more opportunities for him, too. I think there was a
• 47:01
  Speaker 19: lot of under-over coverage on Isaiah, which made it a
• 47:04
  Speaker 19: little bit more challenging to get it to him and
• 47:06
  Speaker 19: I think created some more opportunities to get it to Mario.
• 47:08
  Speaker 19: And then obviously with Terry down, that probably loaded the
• 47:12
  Speaker 19: targets a little bit more that way, too.
• 47:13
  Speaker 32: Wide receiver Mario Craver also commented on him stepping up
• 47:17
  Speaker 32: more into his role to make up for Terry Bussey
• 47:19
  Speaker 32: and Ashton Bethel-Roman going down recently.
• 47:22
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, most definitely.
• 47:23
  Speaker 9: Everyone knows Terry and ABR, they're a big piece to
• 47:26
  Speaker 9: the offense, a big piece to the team. So with
• 47:28
  Speaker 9: them going down, obviously someone's had to pick up the load,
• 47:32
  Speaker 9: pick up whatever they were doing. So honestly, just being
• 47:36
  Speaker 9: able to just do what I do, honestly, keep playing.
• 47:39
  Speaker 32: Kickoff for the A & M vs. LSU game is
• 47:42
  Speaker 32: set for Saturday night at 6.30. The Aggie Equestrian team
• 47:47
  Speaker 32: opens its regular season today with a doubleheader against Delaware
• 47:50
  Speaker 32: State and Minnesota Crookston this morning at 8 a.m. at
• 47:54
  Speaker 32: the Redstone Ranch. The meet will run as a simultaneous
• 47:58
  Speaker 32: doubleheader with two separate final scores against both opponents. Tonight
• 48:02
  Speaker 32: in Thursday Night Football, the Green Bay Packers will be
• 48:05
  Speaker 32: hosting the Atlanta Falcons with kickoff set for 7-15 and
• 48:09
  Speaker 32: you can watch the game on Prime Video. In the
• 48:12
  Speaker 32: MLB last night, the Texas Rangers fell 7-2 to the
• 48:16
  Speaker 32: New York Mets. While the Houston Astros also lost their
• 48:19
  Speaker 32: game against the Seattle Mariners last night falling 6-5. In
• 48:24
  Speaker 32: the NHL last night, the Dallas Stars beat the Minnesota
• 48:26
  Speaker 32: Wild 2-0. That's your morning sports update on 1620-945-WTAW. I'm
• 48:33
  Speaker 32: Riley Flurkey.
• 48:34
  Speaker 6: I want to talk to you guys about Acme Glass.
• 48:38
  Speaker 6: When was the last time you had a window upgrade?
• 48:41
  Speaker 6: If you're like me, the only time you think about
• 48:42
  Speaker 6: windows is when you see a commercial for some out-of-town
• 48:45
  Speaker 6: company or whatever. But I'll tell you this, having a
• 48:47
  Speaker 6: friend who just redid theirs, it makes a difference in
• 48:51
  Speaker 6: the home, man. It really does. really does. And if
• 48:55
  Speaker 6: you are thinking that it might be time to try
• 48:58
  Speaker 6: to figure out maybe an upgrade in the window department,
• 49:01
  Speaker 6: maybe you're just looking at it for energy efficiency. There's
• 49:04
  Speaker 6: a lot of reasons to check it out. You don't
• 49:07
  Speaker 6: have to go and Google and suss out your way
• 49:09
  Speaker 6: through a hundred different. No, just go to Acme Glass. Why?
• 49:12
  Speaker 6: Because they're local.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: Number one.
• 49:14
  Speaker 6: Number two, because they've been doing it for 80 years,
• 49:15
  Speaker 6: 80 years here in the Braz Valley. And they've got
• 49:22
  Speaker 6: all of the options you need. It doesn't even just
• 49:24
  Speaker 6: stop with residential. You need auto glass, commercial glass. If
• 49:28
  Speaker 6: it's glass, Acme has it. You've heard that a time
• 49:31
  Speaker 6: or two before, right? Find them online, acmeglass.com. That's acmeglass.com.
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: Does your sewing machine go clankety-clank or bang, bang, bang, bang?
• 49:40

• 49:45

• 51:14
  Speaker 6: Greatest micro generation featuring the best of both worlds. The
• 51:19
  Speaker 6: Generation Xers and the Millennials. A perfect hybrid, if you will.
• 51:23
  Speaker 6: I'm going to start using that, Adam.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 51:27
  Speaker 6: Let's see. Let's take a look at Gen Z's lingo,
• 51:30

• 51:35
  Speaker 6: rabbit hole. And Tiffany, I think.
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: That is fair.

  Speaker 9: Yeet!
