like a cannon.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
I was gonna say something like a firework being shot off,
but maybe that's one of Elon's rockets firing off.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Cheered again. Definitely a cannon from a pirate ship. You
know what that could be. That is a pirate ship canon,
that could.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Be Uh, that could be a fart in one of

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Of course there was a It was a lightning strike.
A lightning hit the house.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
And I always think thinking about this because it could happen,
and it's happened. We've seen these stories a few times.
If your house is not properly grounded, you get struck
by lightning. That's on a doorbell cam isn't it. Yeah
on a ring doorbell camera across the street, lightning hits
the house and lights on fire in Colieville. Terrible.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Did it burn all the way to the ground.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
No, I don't think so. I think they got there
fast enough. There were three adults inside the home, which
I was like, you know, what are they doing? Just
three adults just chilling at home on a Monday. People
have to go to work.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
I mean there's a lot of millennials and older gen
zs living at home, homie, and we.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Also don't go into work until like one o'clock. Yeah, right,
demand of promotion.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
It felt good while I was on the air to
say that, Wait a.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Minute, that's me. You look at yourself and you're like,
I am a big dick? Yeah, Well did you say
him or have not? Was? It wasn't? What is the verb?

Speaker 2 (02:14):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
I didn't understand what he said.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
You said I am I haven't He said, I haven't
a big I don't know what he said, haven't I haven't.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
I don't know. I think you can say that.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
Back when you guys worked at kt c K. Were
you all at thirty five hundred maple?

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Yes, Okay, that's where I was to where I began
as an intern years ago. So this is where the
next story takes place though, the thirty five hundred block
of Maple Avenue rever Sean, right by Revershan Park.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
So they got a report.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
The police got a report that a man who was
on the Katie Trail was like saying he got approached
by cowdy while walking his dogs.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Approached. Yeah, that sounds like the coyotes trying to sell
him something. Ye Jehovah's a witness. No think about the
part of talent. It was the coyotes like, hey, man,
you got any extra change?

Speaker 4 (03:09):
Hey approached, He's got the Michael Coyote Bible. The coyote
either comes up to you or he doesn't. He approaches,
that's yeah, you know, and who knows the guy makes
a phone call to the cops. I mean, I'm he.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Got some time. I'd like to introduce myself to you, right,
So it's an approach.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah, in this article, what are you doing out here
on the Katie Trail?

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Thank you for approaching me. I'd like to now tell
you some things. I'm clearly walking my dogs. Oh is
that a dog?

Speaker 2 (03:40):
I'm making your lips so that the the article in
w f A says this, the deputy Marshall, who was
working at Rever Shump Park and the thirty five hundred blocks,
said the man was approached by an aggressive cooty. So
the deputy Marshall spotted the cooty and he set up
a perimeter. Which is a funny thing to do, because

(04:01):
if you told me, Kevin, go outside and set up
a perimeter, I wouldn't know what to do.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
I've been in movies all the time, though, with what
you need more than one guy like.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
The fugitive, set up a perimeter, make sure no one
escapes the rows or thoroughfares to get away.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
A perimeter has four sides, so you're gonna need at
least four or three other people beside you.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Okay, So the deputy marshals spots the coyote and he
sets up a perimeter with these other deputy marshals who
were I guess where they get some ground balls in
at the park. I don't understand what was happening. And
then in that highly populated area where there's convenience stores
in traffic, hospital district nearby, fires one round, killing the coyote.

(04:44):
Headed toward a populated area of the Katie Trail. It's
just a coyote, like they're around here.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
We do we have to just kill it.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
You know.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
You know what happened next, sprinkled cocaine by. It sprinkled
cocaine by, pulled out a tiny pistol.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Put it right, bites Paul.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Okay, I'm glad you because I want to play a clip.
This is a cop who there was a drug bust
of a lady and in the past, in the pastor
seat of her car was her pet raccoon. And listen
to this cop cracking up at what he finds.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
The reason I stopped you.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
You are suspended with a warrant for your arrest, and
the raccoon her meth pipe.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
Her pipe.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
He's playing with a meth right now.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
There's no trying to smoke it.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
There is no lock. That's not the police officers.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
All right, had enough fun in games.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
It's not like an episode of Reno nine one one,
not an actual life.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
But if you are a cop and you walk up
on a lady with a suspended license and she has
a pet raccoon handling a meth pipe, that's going to
make you laugh.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
He started losing its going because has anyone trailed off
a sentence even more?

Speaker 4 (05:58):
Had enough fun, James.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
That's good for the end of our show. It is
all right, great job Katie. Coming up next, let's talk
about the Cowboys. Shiny new toy in the Cowboys Kerosene
