Love The Animals Who Escape. Eat The Ones Who Don't.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's funny for me to bring that up when he's

(00:01):
not here to defend himself. But what was his defense? Though?

Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's just this a tradition. Mm.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
Look if we're getting rid of that Christmas song with
the you know the frisky guy.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Hey, look, I like that song. That is a sexy song.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
You know what?

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Every time I hear that song, I'm just like, I
wish I had a moment where I was a bachelor
on a TV show able to share the microphone for
that specific song. Maybe it's cold outside as what you're
talking about, right, I really shouldn't. Yeah that one, that one, yeah,
the one they sing an elf? Right, what a great
couple song. Yeah, I just wish that I could, Like,

(00:38):
I'm not a great singer. I did karaoke on that
song once with a woman because she wanted to and
it was like a work event or whatever, and she
wanted to.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
She wanted to. She invited me to be the guy
in the song, and she brought it up.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
That's not problematic, No, No, that's flirtations. Well, and that's
what I'm saying. It's a playful song. I like the song.
Why is everybody so serious about stuff? All of a sudden.
Oh wait, I mean yes, no, we have to cancel
Sweet Carolina. That song, it's not problematic. It takes two
to tango.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Nobody asked Caroline Kennedy at eleven years old if she
wanted to be in a song that was about touching
hands and touching me, touching you.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
And then that weird creep shows up at her birthday
party years later, uninvited. Probably I don't know, I'm making
stuff up. You're making stuff. But in my version of history,
he was uninvited. He broke into the birthday party. She's
saying that issue.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
He waited until she was fifty. They actually sing it
to her. Well, that tells you everything you need to know.
I don't know anyway, just because things are tradition doesn't
mean they're good. That song is sucked for years. But
because people can say sing along because it's a stupid song,
they're like.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Oh, reach you know, touching me, touching you.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Not even thinking in the context he was talking about
a child, and then they could do the bah bah
bah right, like those aren't even in the word.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
That's the fun, Sweet Carol. Everybody's like, oh, it's so fun,
it's so fun.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
Again again again, that's the the bo bo bop is
the is the cab versus the ambulance thing. If he's
able to lift his head up the barroom table and
say bo bo ba, then just a cab. We don't
need the ambulance this time. There's gotta be another song
that we can like test that on. We don't need
so we need that one.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yeah, we need.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Well, we'll find a different one. Oh and apparently James says,
don't worry. Scott relentlessly mocked me this morning apparently about this. Hey,
you know, what's good for the goose is good for
the gander.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
That's fine.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
I'm not a cancel culture fan, but if there's one
thing to cancel so I don't have to listen to
that stupid song ever again, let's find a way to
get that song out of there.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Anyway.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
In the time that we've been talking about all this
water buffalo stuff, and I swear we're gonna move on
from this, there is information now about the identification of
this person. We know who it is now, and we
know the history of this person. I'm going to read
this verbatim from a new source in Des Moines. This
water buffalo is owned by a man named Prem Nepal

(03:05):
okay pr e m Nepal like the country which by
the way, side, note, have you seen the flag of Nepal?
Look it up right now? Is that not the best
flag you've ever seen? Maybe outside of the United States
of America. I don't want to put anybody in that position,
but objectively, what do you think of the flag of Nepal?

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah, that's pretty cool. Nothing looks like that, does it.
That's very unique. There you go, look it up anyway.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Unrelated to Nepal, I think is prem Nepal the name
of the guy who owned the water buffalo. Prem Nepal
called the city toll officers. The water buffalo is aggressive
and he escaped from its pen after several days. Of course,
as we mentioned, water buffalo is captured this morning and
is on his way to a vet and has a
home waiting for him in a farm sanctuary. Apparently, according

(03:48):
to Axios, though they have done some investigating that this
isn't the first time that prem Nepal has had a
rogue animal in the Pleasant Hill area in suburban de
wine Huh. In September of twenty twenty, Law Enforcement Office
responded to the report of a rogue cow in the
same region as they found the water buffalo. They couldn't
get the cow to cooperate. It wandered around the city.

(04:08):
All efforts to corral the animal failed failed. They had
to shoot and kill the cow in a field near
the busy highway near Des Moines Highway one sixty three
because of safety concerns. The owner of the cow is
listed as Prem Nepal. Officers informed Nepal of the dead cow,
informed him that he needed to properly dispose of the carcass,

(04:28):
according to a new criminal complaint. After that, though, officers
followed up a week later and discovered Nepal had not
properly disposed of said carcass.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
He did nothing.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Also, Nepal pled guilty to charges of failure to dispose
of dead animal and parks and public lands animal not
un a leash. That's a different thing. He pled guilty
too in that incident from twenty twenty and according to
other court records, Prem Nepal also pled guilty to charges
of animal at large in twenty sixteen and twenty nineteen.
This is at least the fourth time a large animal

(05:00):
under his ownership escaped and was a problem for others.
I don't know, Matt, Maybe we should stop letting this
guy have animals and who is renting their property? The
property owner not the same guy as prim Nepaul. How
is his owner like not also on the hook for
some of this. They're renting the land of this guy
who's irresponsible with large livestock. That's not an opinion, Matt. Well,

(05:23):
I'm troubled by this recent development, and what are we
going to do about it?

Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yeah, now, it would it would change things if he
was in it for the loose meat, Like what is he?
Is he making loose meat sandwiches out of these water buffalos?
And will he be bringing them back to the Omaha area.
Then that would change my field. So maybe that's how
I'm going I'm guessing. No, I'm guessing that's not what's happening. Well,

(05:51):
my advice to him as a part of his now
appointed counsel of how we rehab his image to the public.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
We're not reh having his image. We are we are.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
We are telling him he no longer gets livestock. That's
what I'm saying. That's my contention, that's my platform here.
No more livestock for prem Nepaul, he has lost livestock privileges.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Yeah, that's fair.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
I mean the first couple of animals, I mean, by
the third time, isn't it three strikes, You're out?

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Isn't that the rule?

Speaker 1 (06:14):
By the third time a large animal has gotten a
loose from like under your watch, we shouldn't be like
letting you have these kind of animals anymore. Well, now
a fourth one happened, and it's fine. I don't remember
the twenty twenty thing. I was living into one at
the time. I don't remember that. Maybe because it wasn't
a water buffalo, or maybe because they didn't shoot it
immediately and he somehow survived and was on the run.
Maybe that's why it didn't pick up like this. But

(06:36):
I don't know. Man, I feel like this guy probably
shouldn't have animals anymore. Why they always getting out? What's
going on?

Speaker 2 (06:42):
I know, That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
How is an animal getting out like every other year
for this guy, you know what I mean? And he
was just telling police, Yeah, I just shoot it just
so you could leave the dead body there like he
did with the cow back in twenty twenty.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
He just left it there. He left it there. Come on, man,
led guilty to that? What a dummy?

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Anyway, Like I said, I'm supposed to talk to the animals,
Sinctu and the zoo that helped with the police department
to get this thing figured out. So if anything comes
to those interviews tomorrow, I will certainly share them with you.
It is four forty six. I swear I got to
get to some political stuff and I will, including the
student loan payment plan, which is officially by the Supreme Court.

(07:21):
Gonna we're gonna tell you if they lifted that block
of that student loan payment relief.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
We'll do that next on. He's ready.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Eleven to ten kfa b Wade wanted me to talk
about Phil one more time. Phil the water Buffalo. Phil
spelled p h. I l l like p Hill because
he's from Pleasant Hill. Yeah, Phil, get it.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
And he said, this is what the teaser needs to
be a picture of Phil with a US flag behind
him and caption it fight with a pH at the
beginning of it because he survived an assassination attempt.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
This this is what I want to see. Oh man,
that's funny. That's funny. I don't know if we can
like what do we do we put like like like
entities that we tag it like this is a political
cartoon more than it's a T shirt. But like blank
Park two is one of the secret Service agents, and
Animal Rescue League of Iowa is another one in the
Iowa Farm Sanctuary is another one, and Facebook is another

(08:24):
one of all.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
These people trying to protect.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
And then he's got a hoof up and it says
fight with a pH Oh my.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
God, yeah, oh man.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Wade a plus A plus out of you man, I
love it.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
This being an election year, what do you think about
the move to If you're a politician out there in
the fine state of Iowah, you kind of get behind Phil,
you know, like right part of your campaign absolutely, like
you do a campaign like I don't know, he's technically
property of the eye with Farm Sanctuary now, so I
guess they'd have to sign off on it. But who's
to say you can't use the likeness of fill the

(09:11):
water buffalo.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
I mean you just just take a picture. You can
use photo shop cut his face out of it. He's
a good looking water buffalo and slap that thing on
a T shirt and just say hey, Phil says, vote
for me.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Filling Care is Phil gonna do?

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Sou Ya the Farm Sanctuary might say, Hey, stop making
our water buffalo political, which is fair. We don't need
to be making water buffalo political.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
What do you think though, a Republican or Democrat? What's
your feel for Phil? Yeah, the water buffalo? Yeah, who's
native to Asia. I don't want to know what his
politics are. There's a good chance so I'm not gonna
like him. Okay, he has no idea what He was
probably born and bred in the United States. Let's be honest.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
He probably wasn't shipped over from Asia to this terrible
farm guy. He's not even a real farmer. I mean,
let's be honest. Any man and who's got small space
for large farm animals and has been losing them regularly
for eight years, he's not a real farm guy.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
He hasn't accomplished farming yet.

Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
No, And he's endangering not just the lives of the
animals that he has in his possession, but also the
people around his property that have regularly had to worry
about these giant animals getting on the loose.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
I would guess that he's a vivike Ramaswami type, right,
you hear the name of avike Ramaswami, you're not thinking
highly conservative politics. Well, I see, I hear fill the
water buffalo, and I'm going to guess, well, if he's political,
he might actually surprise you. Unfortunately, I think all Fiel's
interested in is grazing and being around some water would
be my guess. Speaking of wanting to learn more about politics,

(10:46):
especially conservative politics, I want to send you and one
of your friends or a significant other or family member
