Speaker 1 (00:02):
Well, what we need is more common sense, the.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Youth breaking down the world's nonsense about how American common sense.
We'll see us through with the common sense of Houston.
I'm just pro common sense for Houston.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
From Houston dot com.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
This is the Jimmy Barrett Show, brought to you by
viewind dot com. Now here's Jimmy Barrett.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
As much as I would like to spend our Friday
show today giving you the very latest information on the
Charlie Kirk assassin, a full disclosure here we are is
we generally do on Frice. We're taping this show ahead
of time, and we're taping the show at about eight
o'clock in the morning, you know, right after our morning

(00:51):
show on kat rh So all I can really bring
you as far as latest information is what I've learned
coming into the studio. But it's worth sharing again, especially
if you've been out of touch today you haven't heard
what's going on today. There's been a lot of breaking
news today on Charlie Kirk's killer. It would appear that
he while he was he was apprehended. I think that's

(01:13):
been confirmed at this point. Here's what President Trump. He
was on Fox and Friends this morning. Here's what President
Trump said earlier this morning. It kind of broke this story.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
Can I always say, I think just to protect us
all and so Fox doesn't get sued and we all
don't get sued and everything else. But I think with
a high degree of certainty, we have him in custody.
In custody. Everyone did a great job. We worked with
the local police, the governor, everybody did a great job.

(01:45):
You know, getting somebody that you start off with absolutely nothing,
and we started off with a clip that made him
look like an ant, that was almost useless. We just
saw there was somebody up there. And so much work
has been done over the list two and a half time.
You know, it's amazing actually when you start off with
that and then all of a sudden you get lucky
or talent or whatever it is. But yeah, we're I

(02:08):
think we're in great shape. But he's in custody. In Utah,
they have the death penalty, and you have a very
good governor there. The governor, I've gotten to know him.
The governor is very intent on the death penalty in
this case, and he should be. In North Carolina, you
also have it. But we have to make sure that happens.
That was a horrific crime.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
Yeah, of course he's referring there to the the Iranian
refugee who got stabbed in the neck on board public
transfer for no reason whatsoever other than the guy who
had been let out fourteen times. Just decide he's going
to kill her now. As far as Charlie Kirk's killer,
New York Posts reported, as I came as I'm taping

(02:50):
this program for this afternoon, New York Post reported, he
is twenty two year old Tyler Robertson. He is from Utah.
That's all I really know about him. That he was
turned in by a family member. Supposedly his father turned
him in. His father turned him in after speaking to
a minister. I'm guessing the minister had a role in

(03:13):
convincing the father that that was the right thing to do.
You'd like to think, you know, we have this debate
all the time about, you know, you found out that
your child has committed a crime, would you turn your
child in? And as often as we say what we
think the right thing to say is yeah, of course
I would. When it comes to push and shove a

(03:36):
lot of times you wouldn't, especially if it was something
small and petty. If your child told you they stole
a piece of gum from the convenience store, would you
make them go in, give the gum back, apologize and
confess to what they did. Now, that would be the
right thing to do, to teach them a lesson about it,
But very few parents would do that. In fact, it's

(03:57):
probably more than a few parents who would condone it.
I mean, I've seen some reports here locally of just
that type of thing, you know, where a store owner
confronts a mom who's with a child and says, your
child just took that, please give it back, and the
mother's arguing with the guy, No he didn't, No, he didn't,
and it's right there in his hand. So parents can

(04:20):
get really squirrely about this kind of stuff. Now this
takes it to a different level, though, Right Your child
has committed a heinous murder on everybody has seen exactly
what it is that he has done. And what choice
do you have. You can't harbor. Where's he going to run?

(04:45):
The FBI is looking for him, The entire state of
Utah is looking for this kid. Where's he going to run?
Where's he going to hide? Of course, you have to
turn him in, and evidently that's what the father did,
held him in the home until the police got there.
But you know, you're a twenty two year old kid.
You just committed a violent murder, and you go back home.

(05:12):
You go. I don't know if he was living with
his father, not living with his father, but you go,
you go to your father. Maybe you should have gone
to your father before you thought about committing the crime.
That that's that's just crazy stuff to me. That just crazy, crazy,
crazy stuff. So here's here's the good news. I guess

(05:34):
he's alive. You know, I have to freely admit, but
I think we had a little pool in our KTRH
newsroom going, not not an actual pool, but you when
you're in the news business and you talk about bad
news items on almost a daily basis, you kind of
become a little bit desensitized to it. I can, I
can relate to desensitized, because if you don't, it drives

(05:55):
you a little bit crazy. So at one point in time,
we're all kind of taking back as far as who
the killer was, what the killer's motivation was, and how
the thing would end up. Mainly on how the thing
would end up. Would he surrender on his own, would
somebody turn him in, would police catch up with him

(06:16):
and he die suicide by cop? Would he commit suicide
before he's even found. All the types of things that
normally can happen in this kind of case. But if
somebody had told me, yeah, he's going to be at
his dad's house and his dad's going to turn him in,
I probably would have gone, Really that's how this thing ends.

(06:36):
I would have thought he'd been, you know, a long
way out of Utah by that time. Or does he
or does he want to get caught? I don't know.
I don't pretend to know. I don't know who this
kid is. I can't pretend to know what's going on
in his mind. I don't know what his politics. Well,
I think I have an idea now what his politics are,

(06:57):
But I have no idea what other externing extreme you know,
is what's the word I'm looking for. I don't know
what other ex extending there we go, extenuating circumstances they
may be. I don't know if he has a sexual
identity problem. I don't know what they reported about him
having you know, trans messages and and uh and uh,

(07:18):
you know, certain organizations like a tief that that he
had any of that on the on the on the gun,
on bullets of the gun, or any of that stuff.
I don't know. I don't know how much of that
stuff is true and how much it isn't. I do
know this, you know we're getting we've certainly got more
details since the FBI has has come out with this,
and you probably at this point know more about it
than I do. But the whole thing just fascinates me. Now,

(07:41):
what I will be interested to know, what we probably
won't be learning today, but what we will no doubt
be learning in the future probably is more about this
this kid's motivation and his thought process. What was he thinking?
And uh, we'll share some of that with you. I'm
gonna share some of it, even though it's a little
bit dated now. I'm gonna share what some of the
FBI Pro file CIA type people think or thought that

(08:04):
you know, this, this person, this was all about. And
we'll see ultimately see if it matches up. Back with
more in a moment, Jimmy Bart show here a name
of nine fifty KPRC. All Right, as I was saying,

(08:34):
we have a twenty two year old evidently his name
is Tyler Robertson, who is in custody and will be
charged with the killing of Charlie Kirk. More on motivation
coming out in the days ahead. I'm sure because he's
alive and they will have an opportunity opportunity to talk

(08:56):
to him, provided, of course, he cooperates and gives at
least some sort of statement as to why he did
what he did. There's no guarantee, of course, that that
will happen, but the profiler people, let let's let's listen.
Over the last couple of days, the profile of people
have come up with what they think this guy was
all about, What was his motivation? What what what kype

(09:18):
of person were we supposedly looking for? So let's see
if any of this matches with what it turned out
to actually be. First one up, he is a former
FBI profiler. He's also a digital forensic expert. James fitz Fitzgerald.
James Fitzgerald and what kind of a person that they

(09:39):
were looking for.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
I believe this person suffers from Kirk derangement syndrome, much
like Trump derangement system. This person syndrome. This person probably
went to bed at night and woke up in the
morning dreaming about how, somehow he would take out Charlie
Kirk at some point in time.

Speaker 5 (09:57):
Who even knows.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
He may have been in one of these college campuses
in the last year or two. He may have been
someone standing in line or standing in the crowd and
didn't like the response that Charlie was giving it so
eloquently and so logically explaining his points of view counterpoints
to other people up there. So this person is by
no means a professional hit man, as some people have

(10:19):
said earlier. I don't see that at all with him.
He's a young man obviously practiced with the thirty odd six.
It's a bold action rifle. It has some recoil issues.
He may have been going I have ballistic oriented friends.
He may have been going for center mass and then
went hide left. He may have been going for headshot
and it went down to the neck, not carrying, not
taking in the two hundred yards distance with gravity. So

(10:42):
this guy practiced at a range somewhere, and that's part
of what the FBI is doing right now. They're going
around to every range within one hundred miles of there
and say, hey, who was practicing in the last month
or more with a Mauser type rifle thirty odd six
and doing these types of things. But he is not
a professional hit man. He's full of a venom towards
Charlie Kirk and the whole conservative movement. And this was

(11:04):
his way of answering the responding to Charlie Kirk that
he could never do in a real time.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
I will tell, but I would have to think that
he's probably one hundred percent right, So I would not
have to give that a former FBI profiler some credit there.
I think he's I think he's definitely on the right track,
all right, What else? What else might be find out
about this guy? Here's former CIA operations officer Laura Balman
on what she thinks the clues tell her about who

(11:32):
this person is and what their motivation is.

Speaker 6 (11:34):
I can't help but say, by the way, every time
I see this, how much this reminds me of Luigi
Mangngioni the pictures, especially when he's looking away.

Speaker 7 (11:42):
Yeah, and he walks with that same sort of braggadocio.
And I guess we could say when we think about
how Magioni just walked through Manhattan as so he didn't
have a care in the world. And this young man
also moved around is so he did and have a
care in the world. One thing we should also consider

(12:04):
when thinking about the investigation is we live in the
era of big data. So just like you and I
use chat GPT to ask rand what the history of something,
and three minutes later the algorithm spits out what it.

(12:26):
To our minds, is a rapid response of bringing all
this information together. They're also doing that on law enforcement.
So yes, there's the old fashioned gum shoe and no,
you know every investigation requires that. But think about if
you take the information we have about the weapons, the

(12:47):
information that law enforcement has about the palm prints, the
converse shoes, the T shirt, the phone pings, and takes
all all that data and puts it through artificial intelligence,
that's going to bear some interesting results.

Speaker 3 (13:07):
Yeah, well, it'd be interesting to see, you know, how
close they were to figuring out who this was before
the dad intervened and and you know, turned his kid in.
I mean, how close were they were they? You know,
had they figured out at that point who they thought
it was, or or was it just a situation where

(13:28):
thank god, the father turned him in. When he turned
him in, or they'd still be looking for him. I'm
not sure. Again, we're taping the show this morning, so
there's a lot of information coming out as the day
progresses that will tell us more. You know, it's been
really strange to watch the reaction to all of this
stuff on social media. It really has I posted. I

(13:50):
put a couple postings up. I don't you know. I
don't use social media the way I used to. I
don't go on Facebook the way I used to. I
used to post things all on a daily basis, and
I very rarely post anything. The fact that I posted
not once but twice on Charlie Kirk tells you a
little bit something about how it impacted me in how

(14:11):
angry it made me. But I tried. I tried to
keep my comments a political from the standpoint of well,
i'll share this one with you. I posted this Evil
is not going away on its own. It will have
to be eradicated. Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk. That's not
much of a message, right I attributed I didn't attribute

(14:33):
it to progressive Democrats. I didn't attribute it to rhetoric
that you're hearing on the television. I only attributed it
to evil I didn't attribute it to guns or gun
policy or anything political, just to evil. Because to me,

(14:55):
whether you are killing somebody who's on the right or
killing somebody on the left of political assassination for no
other reason than your belief system is different than mine,
that's just evil. What happened on that mass transit train
in North Carolina, that was just evil. I mean, there's
no other way to explain that, no other way at all,

(15:18):
completely unprovoked. There is evil in this world. By the way,
Andy Kahn coming up here. You know, we've talked to
Andy for years. Andy is a victim service director of
the Houston Crime Stoppers. You know, he has a lot
of thoughts on this. He's seen a lot of evil
in his day, and I think he'd be the first
to tell you there are people who cannot be saved.

(15:38):
There are people, there are people who you could give
them fourteen, fifteen, twenty chances, and they're going to repeat
the mistakes over and over and over again. These people
cannot be helped. These people have to be separated from society.
And unfortunately, this young man who has been apprehended for
Charlie Kirk's killing is the same way. This is not

(15:59):
somebody who's redeem But in response to my saying, this
evil is not going away on its own, you will
have to be eradicated. Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk. It
got at least one liberal to right saying weird. These
comments are unsettling. Lack education. That's a very elitist attitude,
is it? Not because people have it, but that is

(16:22):
so much how people, especially at our universities, have been
brainwashed to think, you know, the other side, those people
who think differently than you, they're stupid, they're not educated. Weird.
These comments are unsettling, lack education, are a perfect example
of why we are stuck in this horrific cycle. Blindly

(16:43):
blaming the people that have pushed and beg for common
sense gun regulations in an attempt to avoid these senseless
tragedies is beyond ironic. Blaming anyone other than the past
and current administrations refuse to take action and protect his
people is ignorant. Well there you go again. Ignorant, of course, ignorant.
Ignorant a fancy way of saying stupid. Really, well, you're
not stupid, you just don't know any better you care.

(17:06):
This is the part that really got me you care
today because this guy in referring to Charlie Kirk, because
this guy looked like you shared your beliefs or had
a family. Yet where's the outrage for every other family
in this failing country impacted by gun violence? Or were
those debts unfortunately worth it to keep the Second Amendment?

(17:27):
That is quite the liberal statement. That is from a
young woman who's maybe two or three years out of college.
I've known her her entire life. I've known her my
entire life. I'll leave it at that. But I believe
you know that is a typical liberal brainwashing. I've ever

(17:48):
heard one. There's nobody about I might as well share
what I wrote back right, that probably would make sense.
So what did I write back to this person? I've
my entire life. Let me find it here. There it is.

(18:09):
We only blame the people, this is what I wrote.
We only blame the people who prefer to deal with
the opposing viewpoint by shooting them dead. What would you
call political assasses other than evil? If evil can't get
a gun, they'll grab a knife, or maybe they'll build
a bomb or run you over with a car. Evil
seems to always find a way, unless it's dealt with

(18:29):
and I'll just leave it at that for her. She
hasn't responded since, so either she took it to heart
or she's no longer speaking to me. Could be either one.
I have no idea. I have no idea. I'll tell
you what we're gonna bring on, Andy Kin. We'll talk
a little bit more about this in just a moment
here from a victim's rights standpoint, back with more in
a moment. Jimmy Parrett AM nine fifty KTRC Jimmy Barrett Show. Again,

(19:15):
we're taping the show this morning, so if we have
anything in here, this a little bit data, I hope
you'll forgive us because you know we're doing it ahead
of time for a Friday. But we do know that
there was an arrest thanks to President Trump. We heard
that this morning that there has been unrest. New York
Post is reporting it's twenty two year old Tyler Robertson.
He's from Utah, either a college student or not out

(19:38):
of college. All that terribly long turned in by a
family member, his father, evidently after consulting with the minister,
which is pretty interesting, you would think, of course, you've
seen a lot of crime. Mandy con you've seen, You've
seen a lot of criminals and what criminals do. What
do you make of a twenty two year old perpetrating
a crime like this and then go going home to dad?

Speaker 5 (20:03):
You know, in this in this day and age, nothing
surprises me. It's just the times that we're living in
right now. We've seen family members turn in suck sex
time after time after gain. So, you know, crops to
the dad for stepping up to the plate and doing
the right thing. And it's going to be very interesting

(20:26):
to find out what his motive was, why he did
what he did. And the bottom line is this twenty
two year old young man more than likely will never
ever breathe free air again.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
Well, and he may get the death penalty, and you
saw they have the death penalty, and the governor's already
made the statement that he wants to go for the
death penalty in this case.

Speaker 5 (20:49):
Well, there's a reason that we have the death penalty
in cases life. The assassination murderer of Charlie Kirk certainly
could be a factor. It'll be interesting to see what
his background was, what his social media outlets were, what
he's posted, who he's been with, what he says, who

(21:10):
knows what in this particular case. I mean, there's going
to be a lot of questions, and I think throughout
the day and throughout the weeks, we're going to get
the answers that the Kirk family so desperately needs.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
Amen. You know, one thing, Andy, I'd like to get
your thoughts on, because again, you've seen a lot of
crime and a lot of crime victims over the course
of your long career here in Houston and at crime stoppers,
and I'm just curious here as far as you know,
you brought up the whole family member thing. You know,
it seems to me that these these people who do
these types of crimes, whether we're talking about a violent

(21:46):
criminal in Houston or we're talking about somebody who's assassinating
a political commentator in Utah, these people don't operate in
a vacuum. They are surrounded by other people who know
that there's something that's not quite right about that person.
They know what their thoughts are, they know that they
might have a propensity to do something, and yet they

(22:08):
either ignore the signs or they look the other way.

Speaker 5 (22:13):
You know, look what happened in North Carolina just a
few weeks ago where you had the young lady Messo
Zaruska that was viciously murdered while riding in a bus
by a career habitual criminal that everybody knew when we
kept releasing him time after time again, he was going

(22:35):
to reoffend time after time again. Yet we kept putting
him out to do harm to people. So you know,
you blame the offender, and obviously offenders deserve their fair
share or blame, but in a lot of these cases,
I also look to a criminal justice system that often

(22:57):
looks the other way by continually punning to people out.
It's time that we, you know, stop modeling criminals. We
stopped enabling him, we stopped justifying their actions. And we
just saw what a national media outlet, a commentator on
CNN that was basically stating the person that killed miss

(23:21):
Ruska was having a tough time. No, mister has a
tough time. Stop giving excuses to criminals.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
You see prosecutors all the time, you see judges here
in Houston all the time. Take me behind their thought
presser or what do you think their thought process is?
I can't pretend to even you know, figure out what
the thought process is. But it seems to me that
they're they're trying to either they're trying to do it
for a political purpose because they've been instructed that this

(23:52):
is what they're supposed to do, is to let these
people go. Or they think putting black people in jail,
for example, is racist, therefore we need to let this
guy go. What is the thought process?

Speaker 5 (24:04):
You know a lot of it has to do with
the philosophical changes. And we saw that in Harris County
starting around twenty eighteen, and that's where we started noticing
a very disturbing trend of defendants charged with felonies, including
violent crimes, specifically murder, that were getting out on low,

(24:26):
low bonds or PR bonds. And that's why we started
documenting cases like this, and today we've documented over two
hundred people that were murdered by offenders out of multiple
feloniar PR bonds. And you know what happened to us,
We were brandish as fear mongers. I was given a cool,

(24:50):
catchy nickname that we all laugh about by the Eris
County judge leaving the Hildago, who stated publicly that I
was an axe grinding spear. Longer, local politicians decided some
of them decided Crime Stoppers was quote the bad guy,
and even local media outlets, specifically the Houston Chronicle and

(25:14):
in another local TV station, decided that we shouldn't be
exposing these types of narratives. But you know what, Jimmy,
we were right and we were spot on. It might
have taken a few years, and we might have gotten
beaten up by a few entities, but what we did

(25:35):
led to an actual, absolute result of getting crime lowered
in Harris County, getting the murder rate lowered, and Texas
voters will now have the opportunity in this upcoming election
in November to decide whether judges should have discretion not

(25:58):
to grant bond defendants charge with certain violent crimes. And
you remember the uproar when a judge granted a cash bond,
albeit a very high bond, to the two murderers of
Joscelyn Nungary. People went absolutely ballistic. But we told the public,

(26:19):
guess what, the judge has no choice. Now we're going
to give them a choice, and that will eliminate the
excuse that we have to give bond to defend this
charge with horrific crimes.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
You know, I hope you're absolutely right about that my
only here's my only fear of anycon and that is
and I look at the federal court system as an
example of this. We have the Supreme Court basically telling
federal court judges your your decisions are only good for
your district. You cannot implement nationwide law in dealing with

(26:55):
whatever you know, Trump's tariffs or whatever it is that
they're trying to policy that they're trying to change from
the President of the United States. But we have seen
that these federal judges continue to do just that. They
are ignoring the direct command of the United States Supreme Court.
If a federal judge thinks that they know better than

(27:16):
the US Supreme Court, is it unfair to think that
a local judge will think he knows better than the
state or the voters of the state, Well, they would.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
Be in violation of a statute and subject to sanctions.
So I think the judges for the most part, there
are course, some have actually complied with some of the
reforms that have been passed. And we have a new
bill that just went into effect, Center Bill nine that
adds more offenses that you can't get a PR bond,

(27:46):
better known as a get out of jail free card.

Speaker 3 (27:50):
So I'd always like to think that there is a
turning point in just about any thing that's going on
in society, or the verbial straw that broke the camel's back,
do you see, Charlie Kirkus potentially that for the entire
country as it relates to dealing with rhetoric and crime
and making excuses for people who do things like this.

Speaker 5 (28:16):
Absolutely, I think our country has become so polarized. It's
so hard to even have a difficult to respectful conversation
debate issues without vitriol that can often lead to violence.
And I've always said, you know, there are certain types
of cases that can be a catalyst for change. And

(28:39):
I told victims families whom we have to name laws after,
just a real quick example, when eleven eleven year old
Audrey Cunningham was kidnapped, sexually assaulted, and murdered by a
career habitual criminal who should have been on the sex
offender registry. I told the family, we're going to get

(28:59):
a bill passed. We're going to name it after eleven
year old Audrey Cunningham. And we had a bill pass
called Audrey's Law, which mandates that offenders convicted of child
grooming must register as a set defender. And Audrey Cunningham
became a catalyst for change, and that's how I see

(29:20):
what happened to Charlie Kirk. He will be a catalyst
for change, and I'm sure Charlie Kirk and his family
will actually agree with that in applaud and we owe
it to him to ensure that he has a legacy.
And I think this is the beginning of a new era.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
I'm glad to hear you say that, Andy Con. That
makes that makes me feel a little better on a Friday.
Thanks for joining us. I appreciate it. You best picure, sir,
you bet Andy Con from Crime Stoppers back with Moore
in the moment, Jimmy Barrett AM nine fifty KPRC. All right,

(30:08):
before we wrap it up on a Friday, one more
little thing that relates to Charlie Kirk and then maybe
we'll have a little fun here for the last couple
of minutes. And that is how many people we are
seeing posting on social media over Charlie Kirk, both upset
about what happened to him, and the ones at the
other end, the really crazy ones who want to basically

(30:34):
say he had it coming. No, seriously, he had it coming.
And what's really not surprising, unfortunately but alarming, is how
many of these people are in public education. There are
teachers all across this country who are finding themselves in
hot water with their school systems for posting messages like
Charlie Kirk had it coming, or you know he was,

(30:58):
you know he was what was wanting ready, a white supremacist,
transfull big, all the things he supposedly was, and you
get no empathy from me kind of thing. Tons of
those reports, and by the way, some of that happening
right here in the Greater Houston area. Here's a report
from KPRC to our television partner.

Speaker 6 (31:19):
Inappropriate or insensitive comments related to the political activist death
and positions he has taken on various policy issues. This afternoon,
at least three local districts in our area, Pasadena ISD,
Goose Creek c ISD, and Dickinson ID have all addressed
social media posts made by current or past teachers. And
state Representative Briscoe Kine made a post on Facebook calling

(31:41):
for the Goose Creek teacher to be fired, saying that
she's celebrating the news of Charlie Kirk's death. The district
telling us in a statement this afternoon it firmly rejects
all forms of hate and violence and that any violations
of district policy will be addressed accordingly.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
We spoke with an employment.

Speaker 6 (31:57):
Law attorney this afternoon who says the best decision right
now may just be to avoid doubt and don't post.

Speaker 8 (32:04):
For the vast majority of employees, if your employer doesn't
like what you post, they can discipline you up to
an including termination. Courts apply a balancing test. They balance
the employer's interest in things like maintaining reputational integrity, maintaining
order in the workforce, of witning disruption against the employee

(32:25):
as a citizen's right to speak freely.

Speaker 6 (32:28):
And if you think a disclaimer on your profile about
your views expressed on social media not being representative of
your employer is enough to protect you, that employment law
attorney says it's a gamble. It may not be enough,
So post with caution.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
There you go your employer. Certainly, a lot of employers
feel they have the right, especially if you are identifying
yourself as a teacher from a specific school in a
specific system, that they have the right to hold you
accountable for what you post on social media when you
are letting everybody know who you are and what you do,

(33:02):
and there's some there's a law of truth to that,
you know, just because you're expressing a viewpoint that does
not necessarily reflect the viewpoint of the people you work with.
It's not a free pass to do that kind of stuff.
And what do you accomplish just trying to convince you
your fellow citizens that what happened to Charlie Kirk is
okay because he's such an evil person. Come on, seriously,

(33:23):
if that's which, Again, my issue is a morality issue.
We have a morality issue in this country. If anybody
thinks there's any justification to kill somebody based upon their
political beliefs, solely based on their political beliefs, then that's
a hard thing to turn back from. Okay. Now, in
an effort to do something at least a little bit

(33:44):
fun before we call to Day this morning on KTRH,
I led Terry Smith do our question of the day
because I always get to do the question of the day,
and she didn't like one of my questions of the
day earlier in the week. She thought it was a
little on the gross side. Well, I am a guy
and I do channel my inner sixteen year old on
a regular frequent basis. So I let her pick the question,

(34:07):
and she wanted to know when do you consider it fall?
And is it the calendar? Is it the beginning of
football season? Is it a certain temperature outside? What is
it that makes you determine? Now it's fall here in Houston.

Speaker 9 (34:25):
Morning, all happy Friday?

Speaker 5 (34:28):
Yeah fall?

Speaker 7 (34:29):
What is that?

Speaker 5 (34:30):
I'm curious. We don't have it here at Houston.

Speaker 9 (34:34):
We either go from hottest hill to freezing hundred cold
and that lasts for like maybe a weekend and that's it.
But yeah, fall would be great. I think we'll probably
get that maybe late December. I don't know something like that. Anyways,
I do. You'll have a great day, Mike. If I
have any traffic stuff, I'll let y'all know.

Speaker 10 (34:53):
All to me is when the rays of life across
the earth come in at a different it's a more
cute color of light. There's something in an atmosphere that
just feels different than the late afternoon. And of course,
the of course home on five tree in your barefoot
calls the pain ouch.

Speaker 5 (35:15):
Ooch, good morning.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
This is Jack from Connecticut. I'm a teddy bear, easy going.
That's right. I forgot the end of that one wasn't
related to that question. I got stuck up by accident,
but that's okay. We have more.

Speaker 7 (35:26):
Good morning.

Speaker 3 (35:27):
This is Jack from Connecticut, New we Go.

Speaker 9 (35:29):
What makes me feel that fall has arrived is Texas
long horns on the TV and a pumpkin pie in
my lap.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Have a great day, guys.

Speaker 10 (35:37):
Good morning, Terry, Lola, and always so is fall because
my makeup doesn't sweat off my cute big face.

Speaker 5 (35:46):
Hey, it's Adam from New Caney.

Speaker 7 (35:49):
Fall for me begins on September twenty second.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
Well, there you go, and that's when fall will arrive here.
Officially is September the twentieth second, at approximate, no, not
exactly one nineteen pm, so we got about ten days
to wait before it is actually fall. Alrighty, I hope
you have a great weekend this weekend. Thank you for listening.
I do appreciate that. Hopefully we have a little more

(36:16):
fun next week. It's nice to know that we have
a killer in custody and that we can move on
to a few other things. Have a great weekend. I'll
see you Monday morning, bright, early five. Hope to see
you Monday afternoon four. You're on AM nine fifty KPRC

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
