Speaker 1 (00:03):
I don't hope you have a great weekend. On your phone,
push pound seven sixty and see what happens. We've been
talking about we've been talking about cowboy hats, and now Shane,
Shane came in.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Here and spread some knowledge.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
He made the trip across the building to come in
here and to tell us that with the cowboy hat,
if you tip your hat, it means hello or goodbye or.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Go yeah right, and you don't have to say anything,
you just you just tip their hat.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I did not know that.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
See. See he's spreading some knowledge here.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
That's what I'm That's what I'm looking for, is knowledge
on the cowboy hat deal. And nobody's pushed pound seven
sixty to bestow us with their knowledge.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Maybe they want to, maybe they want to do it
the old fashioned way and doll two one O seven
three six nine seven.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Sixty now that they should, but they don't want to.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Pound seven sixty. I tried it. It works.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I want to continue our discussion on AI.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
I mean, listen, we're talking about practice, not a gang,
not a gang, not a game.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
We're talking about practice.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
So who uses AI? I mentioned I've used it, and
I think you're really stuck because if you don't use it,
you fall behind because everybody else is using it. How
do you use it in your business? And you kind
of have to watch what's going on. But they have
(01:25):
been talking about it could be a new revolution of
unemploying more people. Yes, think about if you're a copy
editor at a newspaper or any periodical, why would I
need you. I could run the whole thing through AI.
It'll fix all the grammar and everything else. Does that
take the human touch out? Let's take it a step further.
(01:48):
Look what they did with that funny piece that we
saw on Facebook pop doing a postgame interview which never happened,
just piecing together. Now, somebody very tallented knew what they
were doing with that. But as AI spreads, it may
be more and more of that. How about if there's
a candidate running for political office. Let's say somebody's running
(02:12):
for president and they says things that you would say,
what is he crazy? That would never happen? No, never, No,
someone's saying crazy things would never get elected president.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
You wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Even if he said he was going to do these things,
he would never get elected.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
You would think, you would think. But with AI, they
can do that.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
We've got a phone call Jack, Yeah, we do you sure?
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yeah? What's the first name?
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah? Gil? Right here for Santonio.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Hello, Gil, how are you today? You're on tickets sell
at sixty?
Speaker 4 (02:44):
Pretty good? You'll boys? You all want to talk cowboy
hats and baseball.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Sure, let's go.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
I'm kind of curious. I didn't catch your story last week.
Do you vote for the Landy Wilson Concert.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Yes, We're going to the Laney Wilson Concert in Austin
on September eighteenth.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
I'm kind of wondering how does that work? So, say,
if you got some say floor tickets, and you learned
a nice hat you got from Paris hatters, you got
some folks in BACKI how does that work? Like? Do
you have to take it off or what?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
I know? I don't know. That's what I ask, That's
what i'm That's what I'm wondering.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
So if I want to have to wear to the concert,
I don't want to take it off and hold it
in my hands for the whole show.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
She doesn't.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
No, Yeah, I mean that's the reason you buy it.
But then again, you got some good seats. But then
say you got some people in the back of you
and you're black. In their vision, you were like.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Uh, they should have bought better seats.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Well, you know, I didn't buy floor seats. You didn't
know they're good seats, but they're they're up. You were
afraid to get down in the Lady Wilson mosh pitt
down front.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
You know what it is.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah, you won't get down there.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
I didn't get down there. It's rowdy, rowdy. Yeah, no,
I'm not far away, but they're not. I'm not on
the floor. So then you can keep it on. You
should be able to keep it up. But it still
cost me one hundred and eighty one dollars a ticket American. Yeah,
I mean I tip my hat to that, No, kidd,
is that for thank you, thank you, thank you very little.
(04:12):
I don't even I think that's all the fees and everything.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Yeah, well, yeah, so the tickets are only like seven bucks.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
No, this is the Whirlwind tour man for one.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Hundred and eighty one dollars. They give you a waterburger.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
With that f one fifty and afford one one exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Those those tickets weren't bartered from the radio station, nothing
like that.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
You don't know, will you know better? That doesn't happen anymore.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Well, that's kind of curious if that works out. Hey,
I wanted to talk a little bit about the baseball.
You know, there's probably not a bigger baseball fan in town.
But you know, we've got the Marvel project with the
you know, the Spurs and all that on the other
side of downtown. And then the Baseball Group uh as
a former GM but Cohen yep, and they want to
(05:03):
do baseball. How you know, these are two different projects.
And I'm kind of curious about baseball here. You know,
it's so hot whether you know, we can support a
minor league team, but do we need to go through
all that just to open another stadium near downtown Hope
thinking maybe they'll get more folks down there. I mean,
what are your kind of thoughts on that minor league
(05:24):
baseball downtown San Antonio. I know most cities have it,
They have nice stadiums, but they can support it. But
it doesn't get to be you know, high to degrees
in the middle of summer, and they're in different areas.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
So maybe they should put a roof on it in
air conditioning thing.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
A Dome's Minor League ballpark.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
San Antonio man, he's right, it does get one hundred
and ten or something like that.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah, you could, and I think they probably will, at
least I hope they will. You can put a roof, yeah,
adding over the fans, over the fans and hundred and
keep it cool and all that kind of stuff. I
think you could do that. I think it's a great idea.
I mean, I was all four back when they built
the ballpark down on Callahan Road, like, what are you
going there?
Speaker 3 (06:04):
We'll get in the land for free. Who's gonna go?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
I mean I had a show, Yeah, did a whole
show on that, and they were very unhappy with me.
But I'm like, who's going down there? From my house
at the time, yep. And I lived in the four
A zip code. It would take me an hour in
traffic to get to a ball game.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
I'm like, and then sit outside.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
And they eat and then drive an hour back.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
No, I'm not going to do that. I don't think
a lot of people will. But if it's closer. And
at the time, I was saying build it on the
UTSA campus. They idea all this acreage, and that was
back when sixteen oh four and tenre was not like
it is, now build it, then people will go it's more,
it's easier to get to. But they didn't do that because,
(06:50):
as I understand that, nobody Utsa answered the telephone because
they were calling them constantly saying, Hey, we want to
build a stadium out there. No, no, no, we can't
have that. I think it's a good thing. I think
it would help baseball in this town. I think San
Antonio deserves a Triple A franchise, not a Double A franchise.
I have nothing against the Missions, but they need to
be a Triple A franchise and the city does deserve that,
(07:12):
and they need a new ballpark to get that done.
I hope, and I don't know, because I'm am not
doing this anymore, folks. I am hoping that there is
some cross pollination between all these groups. Yes, to get
the baseball an arena for the Spurs and redo the Alibo,
which needed to be done, and the money was swiped
from them because we always had a Dome emergency fund
(07:34):
set aside. I think when the Dome opened we put
twenty million dollars send that fund in a high interest
account that would grow so we could have the money
to do it and they of course took it and
spent it on something else.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I don't know what they spent it on. But that's
what needs to be done, and it does need to
be done.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
And I'm not coming out one way or the other
because I really haven't studied the proposal, but it needs
to be done, and I think it would help sports
in this town because weirdly, since we got the Frostbank
Center done in whatever year we got it, is finally open. Yeah,
nothing has happened here, No, no, nothing.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Well, you remember the promises when they when they built
that was, you know, they're going to redo all that area,
put some entertainment, you know, some bars, restaurants, all that.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Was supposed to be light well between downtown and up
and it never happened. No, never, That's typical. But that's
what needs to be done because since that they opened
the doors, nothing's been done here. Yep, nothing I even heard?
Was it the Arnold Palmer Cross was closed? Now?
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Is that true?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
I don't know. We have to.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Call it.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Then.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I don't call them one o'clock. I think something like that.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Oh that's fair in the morning. Yeah, yeah, what was
he doing?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
He's not sleep?
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Let's finish drinking.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
You know you got anything else?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Well, no, I just uh, you know, I'm a big
sports fan, and unfortunately, you know, in our town, people
baseball just uh it's never has you know. I used
to of the games back to b j K Field,
Love that place, love that and it would get packed,
you know, but it was affordable too, you know, they'd
have dollar Night and you know, and and now and
(09:12):
uh you know, and I know I've been to a
few Missions game thinking they've got a minor league game,
but major league prices like oh man, like twelve dollars beer.
It's crazy. But but at least they don't.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Have one of the new scoreboards that you can't find
at the pitch count.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
All they have there is balls and strikes the score score.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Yeah, but I can't find I can't find the rest
of it. Thanks for the call, all right, if you
if you want to call, you have good things to say,
funny things to say. Pound seven sixty gives you the
right to say it. Yep, right here on the radio.
Is that a final?
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Now?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
The Miami's beat the Alabamas? Yes, five to three. Yes,
it's a final. It's over, and so are we. At
least for this segment
