The Infomaniacs: October 21st 2026 (7:00am) · WTAW - Infomaniacs

0:02
Speaker 1: Good morning. From the WTAW newsroom, I'm Will Welch. A
0:07
Speaker 1: former firefighter has been indicted for arson. A grand jury
0:11
Speaker 1: in Washington County handed down an indictment for second-degree felony
0:15
Speaker 1: arson against 49-year-old Ronald Perry on October 14th, according to
0:19
Speaker 1: the Texas A & M Forest Service. Perry is being
0:22
Speaker 1: held on $ 100, 000 bond at the Washington County Jail. He
0:26
Speaker 1: was a volunteer with Rocky Creek VFD. An investigation began
0:30
Speaker 1: after the Washington County Sheriff's Office found suspicious wildfires south
0:34
Speaker 1: of Lake Somerville in 2020. A joint task force was
0:37
Speaker 1: created between the Texas A & M Forest Service law enforcement,
0:41
Speaker 1: the Washington County Sheriff's Office, and the FBI Central Texas
0:45
Speaker 1: Joint Terrorism Task Force to investigate. Perry was arrested on
0:48
Speaker 1: August 12th. on suspicion of setting numerous fires between 2020
0:53
Speaker 1: and 2026. A conviction on second-degree felony arson is punishable
0:57
Speaker 1: by up to 20 years, but no less than two
1:00
Speaker 1: years in prison and fines up to $ 10, 000. At Monday's
1:04
Speaker 1: candidates forum, candidates for College Station Place 2 talked flock cameras.
1:09
Speaker 1: Chandler Arden is a proponent of ALPRs, just not necessarily flock.
1:14
Speaker 2: I think we have a year to figure it out, unfortunately.
1:19
Speaker 2: I think Flock, the company, is probably questionable. I believe
1:24
Speaker 2: that probably in January, February, the state will be telling
1:27
Speaker 2: us what we think about Flock. But having said that,
1:32
Speaker 2: I did speak in favor of Flock, or ALPRs, and
1:36
Speaker 2: the big reason really is all these numbers that are
1:39
Speaker 2: talked about, how many cameras there are, how many pictures
1:42
Speaker 2: they take, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. What I'm
1:45
Speaker 2: really concerned about is one, and it's the one victim
1:49
Speaker 2: of a crime, the one crime that got prevented, the
1:52
Speaker 2: one crime that got solved. So the number to me
1:54
Speaker 2: really is one.
1:56
Speaker 1: Michael Kidd is not a fan.
1:58
Speaker 3: I don't like them.
1:59
Speaker 4: I feel like it invades people's privacy. There's a lot
2:04
Speaker 4: of cities that use it. Even Houston uses it as well.
2:07
Speaker 4: And there's been, you know, breaches where, you know, people
2:11
Speaker 4: are not doing things that they're not supposed to be doing. And,
2:14
Speaker 4: you I believe that police officers should have great technology
2:19
Speaker 4: to catch criminals, but I feel like even just Flock
2:23
Speaker 4: as a company, you know, I feel like there's some
2:25
Speaker 4: gray areas there.
2:26
Speaker 1: You can hear from all the candidates for Bryan and
2:29
Speaker 1: College Station City Councils. as well as Mayor, Commissioner's Court,
2:32
Speaker 1: and State Representative at WTAW.com. What started as a petty
2:37
Speaker 1: theft at the West Bryan Walmart led to an ice
2:40
Speaker 1: hold for two men on Monday. Bryan Police responded to
2:43
Speaker 1: the Walmart in the 600 block of North Harvey Mitchell
2:46
Speaker 1: Parkway just before 6 p.m. for reports of a theft
2:49
Speaker 1: in progress. 18-year-old Luis Vasquez Hernandez and 20-year-old Juan Garcia
2:54
Speaker 1: Cortez were detained in the store's asset protection room and
2:58
Speaker 1: placed under arrest for theft under $ 100. During the arrest,
3:02
Speaker 1: Vasquez Hernandez attempted to hide a THC vape in the
3:05
Speaker 1: patrol car, so he was also charged with possession of
3:09
Speaker 1: a controlled substance, penalty group two less than one gram,
3:12
Speaker 1: and tampering with evidence. Both men remain behind bars on
3:16
Speaker 1: an ICE detainer. More news ahead at 7.30 or anytime

Speaker 7: You ever been to Vegas?
5:43
Speaker 1: Yes. How many times?
5:44
Speaker 9: Twice.
5:44
Speaker 1: Twice.
5:47
Speaker 7: How did those trips go for you?
5:49
Speaker 1: Pretty good. The first time was with a wife and
5:52
Speaker 1: another couple, and we had a good time.
5:55
Speaker 7: Classy Vegas or party Vegas?
5:58
Speaker 1: Well, we did a little bit of both. So we
6:00
Speaker 1: weren't young enough to do full-on party Vegas. We enjoyed...
6:05
Speaker 1: We stayed at the MGM Grand. I preferred the old Vegas.
6:09
Speaker 1: I liked going down on Fremont. That's my jam. And
6:12
Speaker 1: we did really well down there.
6:14
Speaker 7: Oh, okay.
6:15
Speaker 6: And then.
6:16
Speaker 1: we did well enough that we went to had dinner
6:18
Speaker 1: at Vic and Anthony's. Uh, there was some wine consumed.
6:22
Speaker 1: My wife had a, I had a pure schedule. We
6:24
Speaker 1: had to stick to though. So next we had to
6:26
Speaker 1: go to the roller coaster at, uh, whatever casino that is.
6:31
Speaker 1: I think we've talked about this role, New York, New York. And,
6:34
Speaker 1: Immediately afterwards, I had to get her a cab to
6:36
Speaker 1: go to the hotel across the street.
6:38
Speaker 10: Right.
6:38
Speaker 1: Because she couldn't function after that.
6:40
Speaker 8: Yeah, because it will break you physically and spiritually.
6:44
Speaker 7: And this isn't like, oh, he's bad at roller coasters.
6:46
Speaker 1: No, this one's bad.
6:47
Speaker 7: That roller coaster is a health hazard.
6:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll end your night.
6:51
Speaker 8: It's a health hazard. Don't ride it. No matter what
6:54
Speaker 8: anyone tells you, don't ride it.
6:56
Speaker 7: It's okay.
6:57
Speaker 8: You're on the classier side. I've been to Vegas more
6:59
Speaker 8: times than I can remember.
7:01
Speaker 1: I mean that. More times than I can remember.
7:03
Speaker 8: Emphasis on the not being able to remember because definitely
7:06
Speaker 8: for a few years, all partying all the time. And
7:09
Speaker 8: I definitely have some party stories from Vegas, boy. And
7:12
Speaker 8: we go down that road. I don't think anyone wants
7:14
Speaker 8: to hear it. But this guy, I legitimately think has
7:17
Speaker 8: me beat.
7:17
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. That guy is something else.
7:20
Speaker 8: This guy was in court yesterday or a couple of
7:23
Speaker 8: days ago or whatever it is because he tried to
7:27
Speaker 8: steal a flamingo.
7:29
Speaker 1: From the flamingo. I remember when this happened. And it
7:31
Speaker 1: wasn't a statue.
7:33
Speaker 7: No.
7:34
Speaker 1: It wasn't a plastic flamingo.
7:35
Speaker 7: If you've been to the flamingo, you know.
7:36
Speaker 10: Yeah.
7:37
Speaker 8: They're famous for having a giant flock of flamingos. So
7:39
Speaker 8: he took one and took it up to his room.
7:41
Speaker 8: He's like, I'm going to take this back to Canada
7:43
Speaker 8: with me.
7:43
Speaker 10: Yeah.
7:44
Speaker 8: I just wanted to play some of the courtroom audio
7:46
Speaker 8: for everybody because it's worth listening to.
7:50
Speaker 11: You understand that this seems like really stupid behavior.
7:55
Speaker 12: Yeah.
7:55
Speaker 1: I thought it would be, at the time, funny.
7:57
Speaker 10: Do you have an estimate of how many beers that
8:01
Speaker 10: you drank, that first beer in the hotel, until you
8:04
Speaker 10: get handcuffed by security?
8:06
Speaker 8: Best question that a lot you could ever ask. Okay,
8:10
Speaker 8: so you took a flamingo, a living flamingo, up to
8:15
Speaker 8: your room and tried to steal it.
8:17
Speaker 1: You say you may have been intoxicated.
8:19
Speaker 8: How many beers does it take you to get to
8:24
Speaker 8: stealing a Flamingo mode in Las Vegas.
8:28
Speaker 1: I mean, how drunk is Flamingo drunk? It's wasted.
8:32
Speaker 8: I also would like to know how many beers you
8:37
Speaker 8: have to consume to get there.
8:38
Speaker 1: It's probably different from every person.
8:40
Speaker 8: How do you even care? You realize that it's not
8:44
Speaker 8: a small bird.
8:45
Speaker 13: No.
8:46
Speaker 7: You have to wrestle that bird.
8:48
Speaker 1: It's not a weak bird.
8:49
Speaker 14: No.
8:49
Speaker 8: It's got a real sharp beak. And you're going to
8:53
Speaker 8: get it in an elevator and then take it up
8:56
Speaker 8: and keep it in the... I have no idea how
9:01
Speaker 8: many beers it would take.
9:02
Speaker 7: He does.
9:03
Speaker 15: He does. If I had any guess, I'd say between
9:05
Speaker 15: 30 and 40.
9:06
Speaker 16: He wasn't drunk.
9:06
Speaker 1: He knew what he was doing.
9:07
Speaker 17: You weren't joking that you were taking him home to Canada.
9:10
Speaker 1: Physically impossible.
9:11
Speaker 7: That's not the question, Mr.
9:13
Speaker 13: Fairbairn.
9:13
Speaker 7: Yes or no.
9:15
Speaker 16: Is Peachy, as a result of the incident on March 3rd,
9:18
Speaker 16: was Peachy hurt?
9:19
Speaker 18: Period.
9:19
Speaker 6: Yes.
9:20
Speaker 9: Yes.
9:20
Speaker 13: Okay.
9:21
Speaker 7: So that's the prosecuting.
9:23
Speaker 1: Prosecuting. They're like, hey, no, he wasn't that drunk. She's
9:26
Speaker 1: been watching too much L.A.
9:27
Speaker 13: Law.
9:27
Speaker 7: He wasn't that drunk.
9:29
Speaker 1: I don't know.
9:31
Speaker 7: Of course he was that drunk.
9:32
Speaker 12: Yeah.
9:32
Speaker 1: There's 40, 30, 40 beers. It's not attractive.
9:35
Speaker 7: That's not an attractive proposition.
9:37
Speaker 1: If you're not, you don't, you don't make that choice.
9:40
Speaker 1: You don't cross that Rubicon.
9:42
Speaker 7: It's Wade Boggs level.
9:44
Speaker 1: That's unreal.
9:45
Speaker 7: Wade Boggs.
9:46
Speaker 1: Oh, the Wade Boggs story. How many beers can you
9:48
Speaker 1: consume on the cross country flight?
9:49
Speaker 8: The Wade Boggs challenge is made famous by a, it's
9:52
Speaker 8: always sunny in Philadelphia is, is tied to a real
9:54
Speaker 8: story that Wade Boggs allegedly drank 40 beers on the
9:58
Speaker 8: way across the country. and then played in a baseball
10:01
Speaker 8: game the next day. So I, yeah, but that's, that's
10:03
Speaker 8: levels of, uh, That's levels of Vegas.
10:06
Speaker 1: I can't even comprehend. Wade Boggs, 50 to 70 light beers. See, I...
10:12
Speaker 1: Boggs actually puts the total... That's crazy. 107.
10:17
Speaker 7: Boggs is lying. Boggs is lying.
10:20
Speaker 8: 107 is impossible.
10:23
Speaker 1: Well, but he takes that from the morning up, not
10:26
Speaker 1: just on the flight. Oh, that's... Wade, good Lord. How
10:31
Speaker 1: many calories is that?
10:32
Speaker 7: What, light beers, Bill?

Speaker 8: 1620-945-WTAW 979-695-1620. I want to do something fun here for
13:33
Speaker 8: a bit. And the reason I want to do it
13:35
Speaker 8: is we've got a lot of tickets to the Texas
13:36
Speaker 8: Renaissance Festival. We're really going to start moving those things out.
13:38
Speaker 8: Believe it or not, we've made it through two weekends
13:41
Speaker 8: already of RenFest action. That's a quarter.
13:46
Speaker 1: That's crazy.
13:47
Speaker 7: 25% done.
13:49
Speaker 8: So if you want to win tickets to the Texas
13:51
Speaker 8: Renaissance Festival, we're going to ask you to get a
13:53
Speaker 8: little creative. This text came through yesterday from Jason. I'm
13:57
Speaker 8: going to read it to you. This text, by the way,
13:59
Speaker 8: has come through from numerous people.
14:01
Speaker 24: Yes.
14:02
Speaker 8: Since I arrived on WTAW. Jason asks the following. Tucker,
14:11
Speaker 8: would you mind explaining the Frito nickname, if.
14:15
Speaker 7: It is possible, on the radio?
14:17
Speaker 8: Just curious how you got that as a radio name.
14:21
Speaker 8: And again, you're not alone, Jason. I've explained the story
14:26
Speaker 8: so many times in so many places because when you do.
14:31
Speaker 7: A radio show under the name Frito.
14:34
Speaker 1: And you look like you look.
14:36
Speaker 8: People have no idea where that comes from. Lots of
14:40
Speaker 8: this community had that question. Even when I was on Candy,
14:43
Speaker 8: I've been so long. Everyone still wants to know the
14:45
Speaker 8: story behind that. In Houston, San Antonio, everyone wanted to
14:48
Speaker 8: know the story behind that. And I could tell the
14:51
Speaker 8: story right now, but I won't.
14:54
Speaker 7: And the reason is what would be more.
14:56
Speaker 8: Fun is you guys just guessing how you thought I
15:04
Speaker 8: got the radio nickname of Frito.
15:08
Speaker 1: You can guess or you can make up your own story.
15:12
Speaker 7: That is just as good.
15:15
Speaker 1: Because that's a lot of fun to do like in airports.
15:18
Speaker 12: Yeah.
15:18
Speaker 1: You see people and you make up a story about them.
15:20
Speaker 7: Make up a story.
15:23
Speaker 8: About how I got that nickname, texted to us, 979-695-1620.
15:27
Speaker 8: And it doesn't have.
15:29
Speaker 1: To be a missioner.
15:30
Speaker 9: No.
15:30
Speaker 1: You can give us the high points.
15:32
Speaker 7: One-liner's fine. Most creative, one that makes us laugh the most,
15:39
Speaker 7: we'll be winning a four-pack to the Texas Renaissance Festival.
15:41
Speaker 1: You can text, you can voice text, you can call.
15:43
Speaker 7: Yeah, call, that's fine.
15:44
Speaker 1: Too, whatever.
15:45
Speaker 7: How did I get that name? How did I get it?
15:49
Speaker 7: What's your best guess? Real or completely made up, it
15:52
Speaker 7: doesn't matter.
15:53
Speaker 1: 979-695-1620.
15:55
Speaker 8: We will share some of what you bring to the
15:57
Speaker 8: table coming up later on. In the meantime, I need
16:01
Speaker 8: you to tell me a story. I need you to
16:03
Speaker 8: explain why the SWAT team wants me to donate them
16:08
Speaker 8: my home.
16:09
Speaker 1: I noticed this on Facebook yesterday. For the purposes of whatever.
16:14
Speaker 7: This is wild to me.
16:16
Speaker 1: It is crazy. So, of course, I follow all the
16:19
Speaker 1: local law enforcement. And did so, actually, before even I
16:23
Speaker 1: got into this job.
16:24
Speaker 8: Honestly, I've really enjoyed Brian PD and CSPD's social game
16:30
Speaker 8: for the last couple of years. And obviously, Texas A
16:32
Speaker 8: & M PD has got the Twitter.
16:34
Speaker 1: The local fire departments, the volunteers came out, and the
16:37
Speaker 1: Fat Bear Challenge had some fun on the social media.
16:40
Speaker 7: That's true. They're enjoying themselves, and I like to see that.
16:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, so yesterday I noticed this one. It was pretty
16:45
Speaker 1: hot off the press when I saw it from CSPD
16:48
Speaker 1: on their Facebook page. College Station Police Department is seeking
16:51
Speaker 1: community members and business owners willing to make their properties
16:55
Speaker 1: available for controlled SWAT training exercises. Look, I'm down. Are you? Absolutely.
17:04
Speaker 7: Here? Here or your home?
17:06
Speaker 1: Well, I can't volunteer this place, but it would be
17:09
Speaker 1: great for them. Oh, wow. I can tell you this.
17:12
Speaker 1: I spent some years with... the state agency that has
17:17
Speaker 1: a law enforcement training division. And in my role in communications,
17:21
Speaker 1: I got to sit down and experience a lot of
17:24
Speaker 1: this stuff. One of my proudest moments as a communications
17:27
Speaker 1: person was sitting in a room as a flashbang came in,
17:32
Speaker 1: and I was filming it, and I didn't shake the camera. Okay,
17:36
Speaker 1: so that's my.
17:37
Speaker 8: I'm not opposed to the idea.
17:42
Speaker 7: I just feel.
17:43
Speaker 8: Like it could be potentially... hazardous to my property.
17:47
Speaker 1: I don't think cspd is gonna go actually breach a
17:50
Speaker 1: door right in your house.
17:52
Speaker 7: What's the point if you're not gonna breach the door.
17:55
Speaker 1: Well but they're not they're not just looking here's what
17:57
Speaker 1: they're looking for all right close quarters interior layouts okay
18:01
Speaker 1: yeah for for like building clearing training yeah multi-room multi-structure
18:05
Speaker 1: or multi-level buildings yeah dense complex terrain such as industrial
18:10
Speaker 1: yards or commercial sites Rough, natural environments. Oh, so like
18:15
Speaker 1: the woods. Wooded areas, thick brush, uneven ground creeks. I
18:19
Speaker 1: got that.
18:19
Speaker 8: You need property to turn them loose in case someone
18:22
Speaker 8: makes a break for it and ends up in back 40.
18:25
Speaker 1: Probably doing some drone training.
18:27
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's not bad.
18:29
Speaker 25: Yeah.
18:29
Speaker 7: Go find them. Get out there and find them.
18:31
Speaker 1: So vacant, under construction, or off hours commercial and residential properties. Right.
18:36
Speaker 1: The training, as they say, conducted safely, professionally, and without
18:39
Speaker 1: live ammunition... All activities are coordinated directly with property owners
18:43
Speaker 1: and managers. Look, I've seen a lot of this training.
18:47
Speaker 1: And if I have an environment that could be useful
18:50
Speaker 1: for them, absolutely.
18:53
Speaker 7: No, that's incredibly generous. And I do like the outdoor
18:56
Speaker 7: stuff I'm all in on.
18:57
Speaker 8: Now, I'd be much more likely to donate the use
18:59
Speaker 8: of facilities up here. because the only caveat is I
19:04
Speaker 8: would get to hang out while you do whatever it
19:08
Speaker 8: is you do. Better yet, do it in the middle
19:10
Speaker 8: of when we're doing a radio show. I want flashbang
19:12
Speaker 8: grenades going off. I want people, like, kicking down doors.
19:15
Speaker 8: I want all that while we are doing the show.
19:18
Speaker 1: I got to do that. Like when my time with teaks,
19:21
Speaker 1: I got to play, I got to play the criminal,
19:23
Speaker 1: the perp.
19:24
Speaker 7: You got to relate.
19:26
Speaker 1: People ran me down. I've got a great photo.
19:28
Speaker 7: You played the perp.
19:29
Speaker 1: I've got a great photo. I'll, I'll send it to
19:31
Speaker 1: you of a BPD officer cuffing and stuffing me. It's wonderful.
19:36
Speaker 1: Holy cow.
19:37
Speaker 8: So with that said, if you want to have the
19:41
Speaker 8: literal SWAT team from CSPD, uh, Come and wreck your world.
19:46
Speaker 8: You can apparently do it. You just need to reach
19:49
Speaker 8: out and contact him.
19:50
Speaker 1: Set something up. Yeah. Go to their Facebook page. It's
19:52
Speaker 1: that post right there. And they've got the contact information. Look,
19:57
Speaker 1: I'm considering it.
19:58
Speaker 8: Let's get back to the text messages at 979-695-1620. And again,
20:01
Speaker 8: we're going to let this go for a little while
20:03
Speaker 8: because I feel like there is an opportunity for you
20:06
Speaker 8: guys to get creative. And also, Renaissance Festival tickets are
20:09
Speaker 8: a big deal. Your job, if you want to win them,
20:14
Speaker 8: is you need to come up, whether you're guessing or
20:17
Speaker 8: you're getting creative, how I got the radio name Frito
20:22
Speaker 8: for all of those years before arriving at WTAW. Let's
20:26
Speaker 8: go through a couple of bills. Maybe it's because you
20:30
Speaker 8: give away a lot of money on the radio show.
20:32
Speaker 1: Not Frito.
20:33
Speaker 7: Frito.
20:34
Speaker 1: Okay, that would be great.
20:35
Speaker 7: Frito.
20:35
Speaker 1: That would be great if we had money to give away.
20:37
Speaker 7: Tucker Frito Young.
20:39
Speaker 1: I get it. Nice play on words there.
20:41
Speaker 8: Larry says you ate Fritos all the time while you
20:45
Speaker 8: were in high school. That is a common guess, actually, Larry.
20:50
Speaker 7: And incorrect. I actually don't particularly enjoy the snack chip.
20:55
Speaker 1: How about Jason?
20:56
Speaker 7: Jason.
20:56
Speaker 13: Bold. I.
20:58
Speaker 8: I would like to mention that this is the Jason Bajanski.
21:03
Speaker 8: And I don't know whether to take this personally or not.
21:07
Speaker 1: I think I would.
21:08
Speaker 8: Jason Detson, because you smell like a Frito.
21:14
Speaker 1: Man.
21:15
Speaker 7: Thanks. It's a great guess, Jason. I'm not going to.
21:18
Speaker 19: I'm not.
21:19
Speaker 8: And I couldn't self-diagnose. If there is a belief that
21:24
Speaker 8: I actually smell like corn chips. then i i don't
21:29
Speaker 8: i don't hate that uh but it's uh it's something what.
21:32
Speaker 1: You got and and his big toe and second toe
21:36
Speaker 1: on his right foot were fused all the radio folks
21:40
Speaker 1: made fun of him because he wore sandals every day
21:44
Speaker 1: finally his podiatrist surgically separated his toes from then on
21:49
Speaker 1: he was known as free toe That's the kind of
21:56
Speaker 1: creativity I'm asking for.
21:58
Speaker 6: Yeah.
21:58
Speaker 1: That's an early leader.
21:59
Speaker 15: Early.
22:00
Speaker 1: That's an early leader.
22:00
Speaker 8: So if you want tickets to the Texas Renaissance Festival,
22:03
Speaker 8: come up with a story. Text us.
22:07
Speaker 1: 979-695-1620. And we might be hooking you up later on
22:12
Speaker 1: in the program. Surgeon did a hell of a job.
22:14
Speaker 1: Back after this.
22:15
Speaker 26: Charles Schwertner has a record of fighting for Texas and
22:19
Speaker 26: delivering results. He took on human traffickers and protected our kids.
22:23
Speaker 26: He passed safeguards against dangerous uses of AI, and he
22:27
Speaker 26: fought for Texas energy production to bring down prices at
22:30
Speaker 26: the pump and cut costs for small businesses.
22:33
Speaker 1: These aren't promises.
22:34
Speaker 26: They're results that make a difference for Texas families.
22:37
Speaker 12: Dr.
22:37
Speaker 26: Charles Schwertner, a proven leader for Texas. political ad paid

Speaker 1: the experienced legal team for the things you value most.
25:00
Speaker 1: Good morning from the WTAW newsroom. I'm Will Welch. At
25:05
Speaker 1: Monday night's candidates forum, the candidates for College Station Place
25:08
Speaker 1: 1 discussed overnight street parking in Southside and Eastgate. Incumbent
25:13
Speaker 1: Mark Smith acknowledges it's a problem but doesn't offer a solution.
25:18
Speaker 1: I think that we need to look at public safety.
25:21
Speaker 2: It should be our number one criteria when we look
25:24
Speaker 2: at removing parking.
25:27
Speaker 1: The Southside area.
25:31
Speaker 2: There are people who live there who don't want their
25:33
Speaker 2: parking removed overnight.
25:35
Speaker 1: Howard Main suggests limiting parking to a single side of
25:38
Speaker 1: the street or issuing permits to residents for safety.
25:42
Speaker 25: I've had some firsthand experience with this in a law
25:46
Speaker 25: enforcement role. When I was working as a deputy one night,
25:48
Speaker 25: we were responding to an officer assist, and there was
25:53
Speaker 25: parking on both sides of the street, and it was
25:55
Speaker 25: very hard for me to get through there in an Explorer. And,
25:58
Speaker 25: you know, so then you go back and think, hey,
26:00
Speaker 25: could a fire truck get here, get through here? And
26:02
Speaker 25: I don't think they can.
26:03
Speaker 1: Roy May says parking enforcement is a good start.
26:06
Speaker 11: So I would start with enforcement. Absolutely. Because so for
26:09
Speaker 11: two falls every Saturday, every Friday, I drove from Southwood
26:12
Speaker 11: Valley to campus and I knew how to shortcut through Southgate.
26:16
Speaker 11: And you run into people parking, like you said, on
26:18
Speaker 11: both sides of the street. On game day, you drive
26:21
Speaker 11: on the streets and you're basically just doing your best
26:22
Speaker 11: not to hit a pedestrian.
26:24
Speaker 1: You can hear from all the candidates for Bryan and
26:26
Speaker 1: College Station City Councils at WTAW.com. It was a pretty
26:32
Speaker 1: successful day of giving in yesterday's Brazos Valley Gives. The
26:35
Speaker 1: final totals aren't in, but it looks like over $ 1. 3
26:38
Speaker 1: million was raised. Organizations that met their goals include the
26:43
Speaker 1: Brazos Valley Food Bank, the College Station and Bryan ISD
26:46
Speaker 1: Education Foundations, Twin City Mission, and Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach. The
26:51
Speaker 1: Aggieland Humane Society exceeded their goal of $ 65, 000. Hope Gathering
26:54
Speaker 1: exceeded their goal of $ 100, 000. The Boys and Girls Club
26:56
Speaker 1: of the Brazos Valley is about $ 18, 000 short of their $ 50, 000
26:58
Speaker 1: goal for a new van. Two women were arrested for
27:09
Speaker 1: shoplifting at the College Station Target on Monday. College Station
27:13
Speaker 1: police responded to a theft in progress around 4 o'clock.
27:16
Speaker 1: Two subjects were being detained in the loss prevention room.

27:28
Speaker 1: leave the store. The value of the items was $ 282.
27:32
Speaker 1: She was charged with theft between $ 100 and $ 750 and
27:36
Speaker 1: was released on a $ 4, 000 bond. 21-year-old Ingrid Moran Rodriguez
27:41
Speaker 1: of College Station was captured stuffing approximately 12 items of
27:45
Speaker 1: clothing into her backpack. at a value of $ 265. She
27:49
Speaker 1: was charged with theft between $ 100 and $ 750 and is
27:53
Speaker 1: being held on a $ 3, 000 bond and an ICE detainer.
27:58
Speaker 1: Early voters are turned out in record numbers for the
28:01
Speaker 1: opening day of early voting on Monday. Fox's Brooke Taylor
28:04
Speaker 1: is in Dallas with more.
28:06
Speaker 29: The first day of early voting. And let me tell you,
28:08
Speaker 29: voters here in Texas, they are showing up big time.
28:11
Speaker 29: We saw a record-breaking number of voters showing up to
28:15
Speaker 29: the polls. You have Dallas County, 76,000 people cast ballots
28:21
Speaker 29: on Monday. That's shattering the previous record and nearly 20,000
28:25
Speaker 29: more than on opening day of the 2024 presidential election.
28:29
Speaker 29: that in Harris County, which includes Houston, you have more
28:32
Speaker 29: than 104,000 voters, breaking the county's previous first-day midterm record
28:38
Speaker 29: of roughly 63,000.
28:40
Speaker 1: In Brazos County, 4,560 voters cast their ballots on the
28:44
Speaker 1: first day of early voting. President Trump is expected to
28:48
Speaker 1: return to Texas to do more campaigning for Paxton ahead
28:51
Speaker 1: of Election Day. Speaking of President Trump, he announced a
28:54
Speaker 1: program that should help farmers shoulder the high cost of
28:57
Speaker 1: diesel fuel.
28:58
Speaker 30: The Department of Agriculture will be launching a new harvest
29:03
Speaker 30: fuel relief program providing our farmers.
29:07
Speaker 31: With $ 8.
29:08
Speaker 30: Billion in support to offset diesel costs during this harvest season.
29:13
Speaker 1: The USDA will announce payment rates next month. Farmers will
29:17
Speaker 1: not need crop insurance to qualify. Statewide gas prices in
29:21
Speaker 1: Texas today average $ 5. 78 per gallon for diesel and $ 3. 78
29:27
Speaker 1: per gallon for regular. A lawsuit has been filed in
29:30
Speaker 1: the race for governor of Texas.
29:32
Speaker 32: In the complaint, Texas State Representative Gina Hinojosa, the Democratic
29:36
Speaker 32: nominee for governor, accuses incumbent GOP Governor Greg Abbott. of
29:40
Speaker 32: violating state public records law by refusing to provide her
29:43
Speaker 32: with documents of his exchanges with Tesla and SpaceX CEO
29:46
Speaker 32: Elon Musk. The governor's office is sharing nearly 1,400 pages
29:50
Speaker 32: of communications with Musk with the publication The Texas Newsroom
29:53
Speaker 32: last year. Hinojosa, who filed a public information request, says
29:57
Speaker 32: all but about 200 were redacted or completely blacked out,
30:01
Speaker 32: claiming Musk, a donor of Abbott, is getting tax breaks
30:03
Speaker 32: for his businesses. Abbott and Musk fought the release, arguing
30:06
Speaker 32: they'd reveal private details. Abbott's campaign calls the lawsuit baseless,
30:11
Speaker 32: noting it's working to have it dismissed. Kristen Goodwin, Fox News.

31:02
Speaker 9: As a Texan, you deserve your court system to deliver
31:05
Speaker 9: justice that is fair, understandable, and within reach. Chief Justice
31:09
Speaker 9: Jimmy Blacklock says that starts with judges applying the law
31:12
Speaker 9: as written, so the rules don't change depending on who
31:15
Speaker 9: walks into the courtroom. But fairness also means a court
31:18
Speaker 9: system that works for the people it serves. Blacklock has
31:21
Speaker 9: called for reducing unnecessary delays and expenses, simplifying court procedures,
31:26
Speaker 9: and making legal services more affordable. Because a case should
31:30
Speaker 9: be decided on the facts and the law, not on
31:33
Speaker 9: who can afford the longest fight.
31:35
Speaker 1: Texas courts belong to the people.
31:37
Speaker 9: That means judges should be accountable, rules should be clear,
31:40
Speaker 9: and the system should be accessible to those who rely
31:43
Speaker 9: on it. For Blacklock, equal justice means more than a principle.
31:47
Speaker 9: It means a court system Texans can understand, trust, and
31:51
Speaker 9: afford to use. Chief Justice Jimmy Blacklock.
31:54
Speaker 1: Clear rules. Accountable courts.
31:56
Speaker 9: Equal justice under law.

Speaker 4: On today's episode of Days of Our Eyes, presented by
32:05
Speaker 4: Urban Optics.
32:06
Speaker 1: Clear eyes. Can't lose. Johnson, what was that out there?
32:10
Speaker 1: You ran right past the ball.
32:12
Speaker 20: I swear, coach, I had it in my sights. It
32:14
Speaker 20: just vanished.
32:15
Speaker 1: And what about you, Morgan? You threw the ball to
32:17
Speaker 1: the other team. What's going on, son? I don't know, coach.
32:21
Speaker 1: It's like I can't see the field clearly anymore. Everything's
32:23
Speaker 1: a blur.
32:24
Speaker 9: All right. Okay.
32:25
Speaker 1: Team, huddle up. Here's the new play. We're all heading
32:28
Speaker 1: to Urban Optics for eye exams.

34:07
Speaker 8: mean 60-ish. Not a bad start to the day. Getting

34:19
Speaker 8: same for.

Speaker 1: Malik, feel the difference. Now back to business. Oh, my gosh.
34:35
Speaker 1: And business is good. Business being.
34:40
Speaker 8: To try to stave off the questions of, hey, how
34:42
Speaker 8: did you get the name Frito for your radio name?
34:45
Speaker 7: We just asked you all to come up with it.
34:47
Speaker 7: What's your best guess?
34:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Michael texts in. He says, well, Fritos are
34:51
Speaker 1: made of corn and salt. Maybe you're a bit corny
34:53
Speaker 1: and a little salty sometimes. Jeremy, I think Tucker's nickname
35:00
Speaker 1: was given because he blew a Frito out of his
35:03
Speaker 1: nose while on the air.
35:06
Speaker 7: I've got to try to picture that in my head.
35:07
Speaker 1: These are all good. There's no losers here. Brendan says
35:13
Speaker 1: because you're skinny like a Frito.
35:15
Speaker 7: At one point in my life.
35:17
Speaker 1: I guess. I don't know. Joseph, and I'm going to
35:19
Speaker 1: tear through.
35:20
Speaker 7: Fragile like a Frito.
35:21
Speaker 1: Joseph says he's just going to assume at one point
35:23
Speaker 1: in his career, Frito had a partner whose nickname was Pie.
35:26
Speaker 9: Pie.
35:28
Speaker 1: Oh, God.
35:30
Speaker 7: Frito and Pie.
35:32
Speaker 1: I'm not going to carry that nickname. I don't think
35:34
Speaker 1: I can pull it off, but it's not bad.
35:37
Speaker 14: I don't know.
35:38
Speaker 1: There have been a lot of ands. Yeah.
35:41
Speaker 7: There have been a lot of ands.
35:42
Speaker 1: A lot of ands.
35:43
Speaker 7: All of them have been fantastic. I think if we
35:47
Speaker 7: needed to go to Frito and Pie... It's hard to say.
35:54
Speaker 7: That's weirder than anything else.
35:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. Well, so Susan.
35:58
Speaker 13: All right.
35:59
Speaker 1: Susan has come through here. What do you got? Early
36:02
Speaker 1: in his Texas radio career, the announcer was covering a
36:06
Speaker 1: live county fair. Holy cow. We're going deep on this.
36:09
Speaker 1: When a coat escaped backstage and knocked over his microphone stand.
36:13
Speaker 9: All right.
36:13
Speaker 1: In the chaos.
36:14
Speaker 6: Hmm.
36:14
Speaker 1: He grabbed a bag of Fritos to lure the goat away,
36:18
Speaker 1: slipped on a dropped corn dog, and accidentally broadcast himself yelling,
36:23
Speaker 1: The goat's got my Fritos! Listeners went wild. The station
36:28
Speaker 1: switchboard lit up. The goat became a local celebrity, and
36:30
Speaker 1: the announcer was forever known as Frito.
36:33
Speaker 7: Do you think I could just take that one and say.
36:36
Speaker 1: That's what happened? The goat naturally was hired as his co-host,
36:39
Speaker 1: but was fired after eating Ben's headphones. She's just trying
36:44
Speaker 1: to get you locked into Texas folklore. Girl, put it
36:47
Speaker 1: on Wikipedia. That's a great idea.
36:51
Speaker 8: I'm not going to say otherwise. I am not going
36:54
Speaker 8: to say otherwise, but we will go with that.
36:58
Speaker 1: There are so many great ones. Keep going. All right,
37:01
Speaker 1: here we go. John says with all his tattoos, people
37:04
Speaker 1: said he looks like a bandito. Then he got the
37:06
Speaker 1: name Frito Bandito.
37:07
Speaker 7: Son of a gun!
37:08
Speaker 1: And that got shortened to Frito.
37:10
Speaker 7: Son of a gun! That's fantastic.
37:13
Speaker 10: Oh.
37:14
Speaker 7: No, you thought that was.
37:15
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
37:16
Speaker 10: Okay.
37:16
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know.
37:18
Speaker 7: No, that's great.
37:19
Speaker 9: Okay.
37:19
Speaker 1: I love that one, too. Hector has written a Mishner. Hector.
37:24
Speaker 1: Look at the length of it.
37:26
Speaker 24: Okay.
37:26
Speaker 7: I need to sit back.
37:27
Speaker 1: I'm just going to let you go. Sit back and relax.
37:29
Speaker 8: This is at least a page and a half of copy.
37:31
Speaker 1: It started, as most regrettable life decisions go, on a
37:36
Speaker 1: commercial flight out of Houston that was already running 40
37:38
Speaker 1: minutes late. Frito, then still going by his real name,
37:42
Speaker 1: which was something boring like Chad... Why you gotta assume
37:47
Speaker 1: I was Chad? was in seat 14C, minding his own business,
37:51
Speaker 1: when the captain came on the intercom and said, with
37:53
Speaker 1: the calm of the man who had already accepted death,
37:57
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, we're going to need everybody to remain seated.
38:01
Speaker 1: We appear to have additional passengers in the cargo hold.
38:06
Speaker 1: Turns out the cargo hold contained three animals. They were
38:09
Speaker 1: supposed to be on a different plane entirely. A circus
38:12
Speaker 1: elephant named Brenda who had been sedated for transport. A
38:15
Speaker 1: panda named Kevin who had been supposed to have been
38:18
Speaker 1: sedated but had instead eaten an entire bottle of sedatives
38:21
Speaker 1: and was now aggressively awake and curious. And a flamingo
38:26
Speaker 1: named Todd Oh.
38:28
Speaker 7: Wow, bringing Flamingo into it.
38:29
Speaker 1: That's great.
38:30
Speaker 7: Okay, all right.
38:31
Speaker 1: Who had simply walked onto the wrong plane because nobody
38:34
Speaker 1: had the heart to stop him. Somewhere over Austin, Brenda
38:38
Speaker 1: the elephant woke up, realized she was in a metal tube,
38:41
Speaker 1: and decided the only reasonable response was to lean against
38:45
Speaker 1: the wall until something gave. Okay. What gave was a panel.
38:49
Speaker 1: What came out of the panel was a single enormous
38:52
Speaker 1: bag of Fritos that the catering crew had somehow left
38:55
Speaker 1: in place. No catering crew should ever leave a bag
38:58
Speaker 1: of Fritos behind. The bag exploded on impact. Fritos went everywhere.
39:03
Speaker 1: Kevin the Panda, still high on misappropriated tranquilizers, immediately identified
39:08
Speaker 1: the Fritos as the good kind of bamboo and began
39:13
Speaker 1: shoveling them into his... Wait a minute, the story ends.
39:16
Speaker 7: The story ends there? We didn't get a follow-up?
39:19
Speaker 1: What happened? The rest of the text must not have
39:22
Speaker 1: come through.
39:23
Speaker 8: Hector, please tell me you're all right. I feel like
39:28
Speaker 8: something bad happened here.
39:30
Speaker 1: I think the explanation is much more technological. I hope
39:33
Speaker 1: Hector wasn't driving while writing that text.
39:36
Speaker 7: I really hope. If you weren't in a Tesla on
39:39
Speaker 7: auto drive, I don't know what.
39:40
Speaker 1: To tell you. That's disappointing. I'm talking about a cliffhanger.
39:43
Speaker 7: I'm going to give Hector credit for.
39:48
Speaker 8: Absolutely coming up with a whole cinematic universe based on
39:51
Speaker 8: how I got my radio name. That's, that's Susan's is also,
39:57
Speaker 8: Susan's is also hard to beat. I'm going to give
39:59
Speaker 8: both of y'all tickets to the Texas.
40:00
Speaker 1: There you go.
40:01
Speaker 8: I don't want to have to pick between the two
40:03
Speaker 8: of you. Frankly, that is text message. That story is
40:08
Speaker 8: completely plausible, except how did you get an elephant on
40:11
Speaker 8: a commercial? That was the implied, not to say that
40:15
Speaker 8: isn't implausible, but that's the, You never know.
40:19
Speaker 7: Hey, anything is possible. Back after this.
40:22
Speaker 33: Hi, this is Jim Daly with Focus on the Family,
40:24
Speaker 33: and I want to thank Drs. James and Maria Childs
40:27
Speaker 33: of Childs Dermatology for bringing the Focus on the Family
40:31
Speaker 33: Minute to you each morning.

41:03
Speaker 33: The most reliable data places the divorce rate somewhere between
41:07
Speaker 33: 39% and 50%. But you can significantly improve those odds
41:13
Speaker 33: for your marriage by avoiding what Dr. John Gottman calls
41:17
Speaker 33: the four horsemen of divorce. In the Bible, the four
41:20
Speaker 33: horsemen symbolize destruction.
41:22
Speaker 1: Dr.
41:23
Speaker 33: Gottman adopts that imagery to describe the four negative communication
41:27
Speaker 33: patterns most associated with conflict and divorce. They are criticism, defensiveness, stonewalling,
41:35
Speaker 33: and contempt. Each one attacks your spouse's character negatively. and
41:39
Speaker 33: weakens the overall stability of your relationship. The antidote, of course,
41:44
Speaker 33: is to replace each of those negative communication patterns with
41:47
Speaker 33: a positive counterpart. Instead of criticism, be kind. Instead of defensiveness,
41:54
Speaker 33: validate your partner's feelings. Instead of stonewalling, engage your spouse.
41:59
Speaker 1: Be responsive.
42:00
Speaker 33: And instead of contempt, respond with patience, love, and grace.
42:05
Speaker 33: And if the four horsemen have already trampled your relationship,
42:09
Speaker 33: even to the point that you're considering divorce, programs like
42:12
Speaker 33: Focus on the Family's Hope Restored can be tremendously successful
42:17
Speaker 33: for you.
42:18
Speaker 1: Is it easy? Well, of course not.
42:20
Speaker 33: But I encourage you to seek help anyway. We have
42:23
Speaker 33: experts to help you end your conflict instead of ending
42:26
Speaker 33: your marriage. For more information on how we can help
42:29
Speaker 33: your marriage thrive, go to FocusOnTheFamily.com. I'm Jim Daly.
42:34
Speaker 15: The following is not an actor, but a real-life story
42:37
Speaker 15: from Trinity Debt Management.
42:39
Speaker 18: Every day I speak with people who are worried and
42:42
Speaker 18: are feeling a lot of pressure because of credit card debt.

42:52
Speaker 18: along with a real plan to become debt-free. Credit card

42:59
Speaker 18: much less than what they were paying before. Most of
43:02
Speaker 18: our members end up saving thousands and even may improve
43:06
Speaker 18: their credit scores by as much as 200 points. I
43:09
Speaker 18: know from the bottom of my heart that I'm making
43:12
Speaker 18: a difference in the lives of the people we help.
43:15
Speaker 18: It just makes me really happy.

44:14
Speaker 21: I'm Riley Flurkey with your morning sports update on 1620-945-WTAW.

Speaker 21: This update is brought to you by Texas Select Coatings,
44:23
Speaker 21: your trusted source for high-quality powder coating delivering high-performance finishes
44:27
Speaker 21: on time, every time. Click TexasSelectCoatings.com today. The Aggie football
44:33
Speaker 21: team is three days out from hitting the road to
44:35
Speaker 21: Alabama to take on the Crimson Tide. Head coach Mike
44:39
Speaker 21: Elko spoke about facing uphill battles in the game as
44:42
Speaker 21: a program and preparing some of his players to play
44:44
Speaker 21: in their home state.
44:46
Speaker 13: Honestly, it's head down one day at a time. That's
44:48
Speaker 13: just where we are right now as a program, and
44:51
Speaker 13: that's kind of where we got to a while ago.
44:54
Speaker 13: We've got to keep pushing to push those results onto
44:57
Speaker 13: Saturday and see them the way We need to see them,
45:00
Speaker 13: but it has gotten into a head-down attack today, get
45:05
Speaker 13: better today, focus on today. That has been our approach
45:08
Speaker 13: for weeks now, and I don't think we can change
45:11
Speaker 13: from that relative to what's happening. Obviously aware of it
45:14
Speaker 13: and know what you're talking about, but I just think
45:16
Speaker 13: for us. It's just going out tomorrow and having a
45:18
Speaker 13: great Tuesday and continuing to get better. You're just talking
45:22
Speaker 13: about at the end of the day you've got to
45:23
Speaker 13: play football, right? And that's the most important thing. I
45:26
Speaker 13: think they have to experience that every week to some degree.
45:29
Speaker 13: I just think it is. It's just always a little
45:32
Speaker 13: bit special when you're returning home. There's usually more family.
45:34
Speaker 13: There's more ticket requests. There's more people there watching you.
45:37
Speaker 13: I just feel like those games are a little bit
45:39
Speaker 13: more meaningful for guys.
45:40
Speaker 21: Tied in, Mike O'Reilly also met with the media to
45:43
Speaker 21: talk about heading to Alabama to play in some of
45:45
Speaker 21: the players' home state and how they'll have another opportunity
45:48
Speaker 21: as a program to play this weekend.
45:50
Speaker 22: I'm just excited for another opportunity. I think we all are,
45:53
Speaker 22: and obviously we've got some guys from Bama too, so
45:55
Speaker 22: this will be good for a homecoming for all of us.
45:57
Speaker 22: Another opportunity, so it's pretty fun. We all know it's
46:00
Speaker 22: going to be a great game, and they're a really
46:02
Speaker 22: good football team. We're a really good football team as well,
46:04
Speaker 22: so I think just staying calm and collected going into
46:07
Speaker 22: the week understanding your preparation while we're doing certain things
46:10
Speaker 22: on offense and defense, and just calming yourself down before.
46:13
Speaker 25: The game is the main thing.
46:15
Speaker 21: Kickoff for the game is set for 2.30 on Saturday afternoon.
46:19
Speaker 21: The 7th-ranked Aggie women's golf team extended its lead to
46:22
Speaker 21: nine strokes after round two of the Fin at the

Speaker 21: Freestone Lake and Golf Club yesterday. The Marina White returns
46:29
Speaker 21: to the course this morning at 9.30 a.m. with a
46:31
Speaker 21: shotgun start. The A & M men's golf team extended
46:35
Speaker 21: its lead at the Abilene Christian Intercollegiate yesterday, carting a
46:39
Speaker 21: 10-under par 278 in the second round to reach 15-under 561.
46:44
Speaker 21: The Aggies currently hold a seven-stroke advantage over second-place Arizona
46:48
Speaker 21: and will continue play today with the final round. In
46:52

46:55
Speaker 21: to the Oklahoma City Thunder. And tonight, the Houston Rockets
47:00
Speaker 21: will host the Dallas Mavericks with tip-off set for 730.

Speaker 1: We're in the CC Electric studio. Your home is our home,
48:53
Speaker 1: with military discounts available at ccelectricbcs.com.
48:57
Speaker 8: Well, we've got so much. I really was going to
49:03
Speaker 8: move on from the guesses to the name, but Hector
49:07
Speaker 8: sent another.
49:07
Speaker 1: Well, he left us on a cliffhanger. He did.
49:10
Speaker 8: What we're doing is people are guessing how I got
49:13
Speaker 8: the nickname Frito for the radio, and we're using it
49:15
Speaker 8: to give away tickets to the Texas Renaissance Festival.
49:17
Speaker 7: We've resolved this contest. Hector is one of our.
49:20
Speaker 3: winners.
49:20
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so.
49:21
Speaker 7: But we can't move on until we hear how the
49:22
Speaker 7: story ends.
49:23
Speaker 1: So I can't go back and give you a recap.
49:26
Speaker 1: I think when we last left our heroes... Fritos were
49:30
Speaker 1: going everywhere because Kevin the Panda are high on misappropriated tranquilizers.
49:34
Speaker 8: A lot of people are very curious how we got
49:37
Speaker 8: the People's Republic of China to name the Panda Kevin
49:40
Speaker 8: as well.
49:40
Speaker 1: You have a lot of pull. Apparently. Apparently so. So
49:44
Speaker 1: at any rate, Kevin identified the Fritos as the good
49:47
Speaker 1: kind of bamboo... and began shoveling them into his mouth.
49:51
Speaker 1: Fritos went everywhere. Yeah. Okay, so let's pick it up there. Oh, okay,
49:55
Speaker 1: there it is.
49:56
Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Into his face.
49:57
Speaker 1: With both paws while making the kind of noises that
50:01
Speaker 1: get you put on a no-fly list. So Kevin is
50:03
Speaker 1: really enjoying those Fritos. Todd the Flamingo, for reasons known
50:06
Speaker 1: only to God and possibly the Flamingo, decided the Fritos
50:11
Speaker 1: were an existential threat and began trying to kick them
50:13
Speaker 1: out of existence, one orange triangle at a time. I
50:17
Speaker 1: think that's a Dorito, though. Yeah, all good, all good.
50:21
Speaker 1: While also somehow getting one stuck on his beak so
50:25
Speaker 1: he looked like he was eating a tiny corn chip hat.
50:27
Speaker 1: All right. Meanwhile, Brenda the elephant had discovered that if
50:31
Speaker 1: she sneezed, the Fritos would ricochet off the ceiling and
50:33
Speaker 1: then rain down on Kevin again, which made Kevin happy.
50:36
Speaker 1: The elephant? Yeah, which made Todd more aggressive, which made
50:40
Speaker 1: Brenda sneeze harder. It was a feedback loop. The pilots
50:43
Speaker 1: were screaming. The flight attendants had locked themselves in the galley.
50:47
Speaker 1: Someone in row 12 started filming and would later upload
50:50
Speaker 1: the video under the title, Panda Eats Entire Plane Snacks
50:54
Speaker 1: While Elephant Sneezes, Flamingo Judges. When they finally landed, skidding
50:59
Speaker 1: slightly because Brenda had shifted her weight at the last second.
51:02
Speaker 1: The gate agent opened the door, took one look at
51:04
Speaker 1: the interior and said, what in the actual? Okay. And
51:07
Speaker 1: stepped from somewhere in the middle of the cabin, covered
51:10
Speaker 1: head to toe in Frito dust, still holding a microphone
51:13
Speaker 1: he'd brought because he was supposed to do a remote
51:15
Speaker 1: that morning.
51:16
Speaker 7: Right.
51:16
Speaker 1: Chad. Chad, which is not Chad. Your real name.
51:20
Speaker 12: Yeah.
51:20
Speaker 1: Stood up, looked at the gate agent dead in the
51:22
Speaker 1: eye and said, the only thing a man, it cut
51:26
Speaker 1: off again.
51:26
Speaker 24: Okay.
51:30
Speaker 13: Okay.
51:31
Speaker 8: There's allegations made by Jennifer via text message. She says,
51:36
Speaker 8: y'all realize that story from Hector was written by Chad GPT, right?
51:40
Speaker 1: No, no, Chad.
51:41
Speaker 7: I'm not going to make that claim.
51:44
Speaker 1: No, Chad GPT has limitations. And Chad GPT's mind can't
51:51
Speaker 1: go wherever Hector's is this morning.
51:54
Speaker 7: You want to hear a wild AI story?
51:56
Speaker 1: Sure.
51:57
Speaker 8: Chad GPT is stereotyping you based on where you live.
52:01
Speaker 1: Really, they are.
52:04
Speaker 8: This is from several websites. Full research was published in
52:11
Speaker 8: the journal Platforms and Society.
52:14
Speaker 7: So here's what happens.
52:15
Speaker 8: If you ask ChatGPT to map out stereotypes directly, it
52:18
Speaker 8: probably isn't going to answer. It'll be like, hey, that's rude.
52:20
Speaker 8: Can't do that. But researchers worked on prompts to force
52:24
Speaker 8: it to reveal its biases.
52:26
Speaker 7: And it learned.
52:28
Speaker 8: that it has learned, likely from source material, that you
52:33
Speaker 8: can prejudice against people based on where they live. So
52:39
Speaker 8: they have come up with what they think people from
52:43
Speaker 8: each individual state, the traits that they share. For instance,
52:47
Speaker 8: there are states that have smart people, smarter people.
52:51
Speaker 1: Oh, really?
52:52
Speaker 8: Massachusetts, California, New York, Minnesota. Mississippi's at the bottom of
53:00
Speaker 8: the list, so they're.
53:00
Speaker 1: The stupider ones. That's not nice.
53:03
Speaker 7: Friendlier people.
53:06
Speaker 1: Hawaii. Because of Aloha. I guess.
53:10
Speaker 8: Wisconsin, Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Iowa. Also very high on the list.
53:16
Speaker 8: Smellier people. Dead serious. They think that the following states
53:23
Speaker 8: are more likely to have people with body odor issues.
53:28
Speaker 9: Florida.
53:29
Speaker 8: Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Texas. By the way, yes, this
53:35
Speaker 8: is the first time we're mentioned.
53:37
Speaker 1: For a handful of those, I mean, you can put
53:40
Speaker 1: humidity in the mix, right? But let's face it. The
53:43
Speaker 1: AI is garbage in, garbage out.
53:47
Speaker 8: Uglier people. Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Nebraska, Alabama, and Oklahoma. Stop
53:56
Speaker 8: me when I'm telling lies. Now Texas is right under that,
53:59
Speaker 8: which we know is a fallacy because tech, I mean, guys.
54:03
Speaker 1: You know, we're a good looking bunch of.
54:04
Speaker 8: People as a state, as a state, we're a good
54:07
Speaker 8: looking bunch of people. There are some highs and lows,
54:10
Speaker 8: but like as a whole, yeah, I don't know.
54:13
Speaker 1: I agree with that.
54:15
Speaker 8: States where people are most annoying, New Jersey, California, and
54:17
Speaker 8: Texas states where people are more promiscuous, California, Texas, and
54:23
Speaker 8: Florida states where people are more hardworking. Nebraska, Indiana, and Texas.
54:30
Speaker 8: I'll take that one as a win. People are more
54:33
Speaker 8: superstitious in Louisiana, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama. And yeah, so
54:39
Speaker 8: that's what ChatGPT thinks about you.
54:41
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't put much stock in the ChatGPT. However,
54:44
Speaker 1: I did not put enough stock in the ChatGPT because
54:48
Speaker 1: we have a confession.
54:50
Speaker 7: Oh no, don't tell me that.
54:52
Speaker 1: Hector.
54:54
Speaker 7: Don't tell me that, Hector. Don't tell me that.
54:56
Speaker 1: Hector said Grok wrote it.
54:57
Speaker 7: Hector!
54:58
Speaker 1: Hector! I'm not sure how I feel about that.
55:02
Speaker 7: Hector, don't confess.
55:05
Speaker 1: Don't confess.
55:05
Speaker 7: Just tell me you're that creative, Hector. Tell me your
55:08
Speaker 7: mind is that weird.
55:10
Speaker 1: I also want to go back to the ugliest people
55:14
Speaker 1: by the AI, right? Yes, please. Oklahoma is tied in
55:21
Speaker 1: second place behind California and Ohio and New York.
55:25
Speaker 10: Yeah.
55:25
Speaker 1: For the most Miss America winners, and Texas leads by
55:30
Speaker 1: a wide margin in the Miss USA pageant.
55:33
Speaker 7: Ain't no one choosing Texas if we're all a bunch
55:34
Speaker 7: of uggos.
55:35
Speaker 12: Yeah.
55:36
Speaker 7: Okay.
55:37
Speaker 1: I mean, the song proves it.
55:39
Speaker 8: Ain't no one choosing Texas if we're all a bunch
55:41
Speaker 8: of homely people.
55:43
Speaker 1: Music is more reliable for facts than AI. We just
55:46
Speaker 1: proved that.
55:47
Speaker 8: No one's moving to a state. No one's changing, uprooting
55:50
Speaker 8: their life to come to a state Where no one
55:53
Speaker 8: is physically attractive and has bad body odor.
55:56
Speaker 1: I beg to differ.
55:57
Speaker 20: No?
55:58
Speaker 1: Yes, because there's this thing where women will move to
56:02
Speaker 1: Alaska because if you're a five in LA, you're an
56:05
Speaker 1: 11 in Alaska. Holy cow. That's a thing. That is true.
56:14
Speaker 7: The Alaska, because there are women in Alaska.
56:16
Speaker 23: None.
56:17
Speaker 8: You just have to be a female and you can
56:19
Speaker 8: find a man. That man's going to be I mean,
56:23
Speaker 8: that sounds like a weird male.
56:25
Speaker 12: Yeah.
56:25
Speaker 8: But, like, if it's just... Pretty handy, you know. Yeah,
56:28
Speaker 8: he'll probably survive some things. But, yeah, he's going to
56:32
Speaker 8: have some weird ideas.
56:34
Speaker 1: Yeah. Guys, good morning. Thank you for being here today.
