Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Michael Verie Show is on the air.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
Mister President, mister Prime Minister, it's the Speaker, seem, members
of the Knesset, and cherished citizens of Israel, we gather
in a day of profound joy, of soaring hope, of
renewed faith, and above all, a day to give our
deepest thanks to the Almighty God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

(00:37):
After two harrowing years and darkness and captivity, twenty courageous
hostages are returning to the glorious embrace of their families.
And it is glorious. Twenty eight more precious loved ones
are coming home at last to rest in His sacred
soil for all of time, and after so many years

(01:02):
of unceasing war and endless danger. Today the skies are calm,
the guns are silent, the sirens are still, and the
sun rises on a holy land that is finally at peace,
a land and a region that will live God willing
in peace for all eternity. It's the start of a

(01:24):
grand concord and lasting harmony for Israel and all the
nations of what will soon be a truly magnificent region.
I believe that so strongly.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
This is the.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
Historic dawn of a new Middle East sweet cease fire.
We've achieved the most challenging breakthrough of them all, the
most challenging breakthrough maybe ever.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
I mean, I've never seen anything like.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
I've been involved in a lot of success, I have
never seen anything like what's going on today.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
All over the world, people.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
Are dancing in the streets, not just in his They're
dancing in the streets of countries that would have never
danced in the street about what's happening today.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
They're dancing in those streets.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
The guy who once dwelled among his people in the
city still calls us, in the words of scripture, the
turn from evil and do good, to seek peace and
pursue it. We settled eight wars in eight months. I'm
now including this one. By the way, if that's okay.

(02:32):
They may say, well that was quick, because yesterday I
was saying seven, But now I can say eight.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
The hostages are back. The hostages are back.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
You know.

Speaker 5 (02:41):
They say success has one thousand fathers, but failure.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Is an orphan.

Speaker 5 (02:47):
It's not just Democrats trying to take credit for President
Trump's historic achievement British Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson was on
Sky News when Trevor Phillips with Trevor Phillips when that
great Britain played a key role behind the scenes. You know,

(03:09):
if you go back to Balflo in nineteen forty eight,
the British have had a great influence within Israel and
a lot of mistakes that were made were British mistakes.
And none of us were at the meetings or on

(03:29):
the calls or part of the shuttle diplomacy with wit
cough in those guys. But everything that has emerged says
this was the power of personality of Trump to get
this done. So with that in mind, no, Bridget, you
don't get credit.

Speaker 6 (03:50):
We have played a key role behind the scenes in
shaping this. It's right that we do so, because it's
in all of our interest, including our own national interest,
that we moved to a lasting piece in the region.

Speaker 7 (04:00):
Well, when you say behind the scenes, like what I mean,
it seemed to everybody else in the world that this
has been done by Trump and the Israelis and her
mass What part.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Did we play?

Speaker 6 (04:12):
These are complex matters of diplomacy that we are involved in,
but we do welcome and recognize the critical rule that
the American government played in moving us to this point.
What matters now, of course, is how we move beyond
this immediate to the wall, moving towards that lasting piece
that we all want to see. That is why we
recognized a Palestinian state. Why alongside that were committed to

(04:33):
making sure that a safe and secure Israel endurers.

Speaker 7 (04:37):
The reason I asked us is because, as you say,
we recognize a Palestinian state, Marco Rubio, the sexorist state,
said that actually made it more difficult to learn the deal.
What's really going on here? I mean, was that some
sort of clever, strategic double bluff. I mean the Americans

(04:58):
say we made it more difficult. You were saying that
we played this cleep art.

Speaker 6 (05:02):
What's true, Well, we believed as a government that it
was the right thing to do to recognize the Palestinian
state because of the way in which the conflict had
developed over the last two years, that if that hadn't happened,
we would be in a position where there would no
longer be that viable option of a Palestinian.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
But were furious with us. The Americans said that we
actually handled the deal.

Speaker 7 (05:22):
What was the positive role that we played.

Speaker 6 (05:25):
It was the right thing to do, and we will
always act as a government in that manner. I do
obviously understand that not everyone agrees with that decision, but
given the scale of the conflict and what needed to happen,
we felt it was the right thing to do to
recognize that Palestinian state.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
But I should also.

Speaker 6 (05:41):
Just emphasize that the reason this conflict, of course, this
phase of the conflict has begun or began, was following
the appalling events, the appalling atrocities of the seventh of October,
and as we over the course of the next twenty
four hours, what we all want to see are as
many hostages as possible released home to their families.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
Okay, so now you're falling back on canards. Well, let'sn't
worry about who gets credit.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Let's just let's let's just let's let's just get the
hostages home.

Speaker 5 (06:11):
But what Trevor Phillips was bringing up there was the
comments by Secretary of State US Secretary of State Marco
Rubio where he said Britain and France caused the collapse
of the ceasefire talks. They were in the back throwing
a monkey wrench in this process.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
You know, when you've got multilateral.

Speaker 5 (06:36):
Negotiations going on like this, the last thing you need
is some jackass like the French or UK or both
together undermining what's happening. And if you don't think people
would let this war continue for the soul's sake of

(06:59):
them one need to get credit, then you don't understand
that sometimes police officers or police agencies will will fail
to catch a bad guy because they're arguing over which department,
which agency is going to get credit.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
It does happen. That's not just in the movies.

Speaker 8 (07:15):
Have you noticed that the talks with mos fell apart
on the day Macrone made the unilateral decision that he's
going to recognize the Palestinian state, And then you have
other people come forward, other countries say, well, there's not
a ceasefire by September, we're going to recognize the Palistin state.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
Well Goamjamas.

Speaker 8 (07:29):
I basically concluded, let's not do a cease fire right
because we can be rewarded and we can claim it
as a victory. So those messages, while largely symbolic in
their minds, actually have made it harder to get peace
and harder to achieve a deal with as.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
They feel emboldn flab it Michael Berry Houston as a
meth labit.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
So while President.

Speaker 5 (07:51):
Trump leads the world at a conference bringing peace to
the Middle East, as he is in Egypt, what are
the Democrats doing the Schumer shut down? We start with
Congressman Gwynn Moore on CNN where she says that you

(08:11):
ready for this. So they've told us in the last
week they don't know who Antifa is. Oh really, okay, Now,
Republicans own most of the media. Well that's interesting. I
didn't know that.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
You know, we do. Well.

Speaker 9 (08:26):
I appreciate CNN, but I'll tell you. You know, Republicans own
most of the media.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
They control Fox News and X or Meta whatever you
call it.

Speaker 9 (08:41):
You know, right now the president has a purchase or
allowed his allies to purchase TikTok.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
We we are hard pressed to get our message out.

Speaker 5 (08:52):
Oh my, you said that with a straight vease. Hmm,
even under that fashion fair makeup. I could tell you
were blushing. Senator Chris Murphy was called out by Margaret
Brennan on faced the Nation for being critical of government
shutdowns in the past and yet voted to shut down

(09:14):
the government this time.

Speaker 6 (09:15):
You have been critical in the past of the tactic
of choosing to shut down the government.

Speaker 5 (09:20):
You were in twenty eighteen, you were back in twenty
thirteen when it was a discussion over healthcare.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
This is what you said in twenty eighteen.

Speaker 10 (09:26):
The future of the American healthcare system was a legitimate
public policy issue.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
As is the security of our borders.

Speaker 10 (09:34):
But we shouldn't be having the discussion amidst a government
shutdound trying to use our nation security and all of
these federal workers in the work that they do as hostages.

Speaker 11 (09:45):
Aren't you doing today exactly what you were criticizing?

Speaker 12 (09:48):
Then?

Speaker 10 (09:48):
No, that was a fight over sort of the long
term structure of the American healthcare system.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
This is an emergency. Uh oh, you know.

Speaker 5 (09:58):
It's all definitions, right, it's all words. They mean nothing,
but they change as needed. Meanwhile, Tennessee Congressman Tim Burchett
was on with Tucker Carlson when he exposed how some
congressmen are getting rich using no bid contracts. So you
don't have any competition for who gets these massive, many

(10:22):
million dollar contracts. You don't have to compete to give
it to get it, We'll just give it to you.
And you know why because we get rich off of it.
So what do we get for chilanos a year to
the US military? Do we get anything in return? We
get some enhanced stock portfolios. And I'll give you a
great example.

Speaker 13 (10:41):
And when Joe Biden gave our military or excuse me,
our missile defense system. You know I haven't voted for
a penny for your Crain. I'm proud of that. It's
not my dad gum war. I'm not sending my eighteen
year old daughter to a country that most members of
connors couldn't find on my dad gum globe. And so
you have we give them our our missile defense system,
and then we have to replanish ours, which we should.

(11:02):
We can't be left naked without any of that defense.
And guess what some of those contractors we described get
a multi multi billion with a B dollar no big contract.
And who do you think has bought stock in that
in that company? Members of Congress two weeks prior to
the President making that official notice. And and you see
it time and time again, and you honestly believe members

(11:23):
of Congress are making the time and see even met
some of these guys. I mean they don't. I can't
come in out of the ring some of them. Yeah,
I mean I'm guilty of as well. But yeah, a
lot of really damaged return on their five and six
hundred percent return on the investment.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
And in war is great for business.

Speaker 13 (11:39):
It's great for it's great for the economy, but it's
not good for I don't think it's good for ourselves.

Speaker 14 (11:44):
Wouldn't. No, No, there's nothing worse. Killing people is not good.
I know that's a controversial statement. But why is it?
Why is it impossible? Is to ban stock trading for
members of Congress.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
That's a great idea. I have the bill to do it.

Speaker 13 (11:56):
And that's why, you know, we have a bipartisan group
began myself prior Paul and never get her name right,
Fortez and me and Ship Roy and a bunch of others.
You know, we've got a we've got a bill, but
it's not going anywhere. Why because too many members of Congress.
I mean we were told by leadership that you know,
these these guys can't afford, can't afford to be here.

(12:18):
You know what if you can't afford to be in
Congress and go get another dad gum job.

Speaker 5 (12:22):
That line comes from Dan Crenshaw, Republican from the Houston area,
who has said that all these restrictions, if they were
to impose these restrictions on trading stock, then wouldn't be
able to survive. They make almost two hundred thousand dollars.
Are you kidding me? Why did you run for the job?

(12:44):
You know what it pays. You don't need to make
extra money trading on inside information. You don't need to
It's wrong. By the way, Tucker Carlson has an interview
with the fellow named Steve Toath t o t h
who's a state rep. He's a constitutionalist, Tea party guy,
maga guy, and Toat's got a real shot. He announced

(13:05):
today that he raised three hundred thousand dollars in the
first three months. He's not going to have more money
than Crenshaw. Crenshaw's going to have all the establishment money.
But tothe is a real grassroots guy and his interview
with Tucker Carlson is really really good.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
I encourage you to watch it.

Speaker 5 (13:21):
And then he did an interview with the guy who
created the Pelosi Stop tracker, and he pointed out that
the only person that made more money trading stocks as
a percentage of what they had invested in Dan Crenshaw
was Nancy.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
Pelosi, and he lays it all out.

Speaker 5 (13:37):
Tucker interviewed him as well, Tucker really really really doesn't
like Dan Crenshaw, and he's making reference to some things
that he has not spoken of, but he's encouraging people
by saying that to dig into what exactly is going
on with Crenshaw. And I wouldn't be shocked if somebody

(13:57):
doesn't do it. I would not be shocked if somebody
doesn't do it.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
But both of those.

Speaker 5 (14:01):
Interviews about Prinshaw with Tucker Cralson are worth your time.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
They are, for certain worth your time.

Speaker 5 (14:09):
Used to love it when Rush would play montages of
the left media reading the Democrat talking points. Well credit
Tom Elliott for this montage of the Democrats.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
Saying, Oh, I don't I don't know who Antifa is.
There's no Antifa. This is an entirely imaginary organization. There
is not an Antifa, like I don't even know what
antifa is. There is no group.

Speaker 6 (14:31):
It's not even like for our right groups like the
Proud Boys and oath Keepers. Compared to right wing extremists,
Antifa linked violence is rare. And limited.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
It isn't an organization.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
It is a it is in many ways mythology.

Speaker 11 (14:43):
It's not like the Proud Boys or the Oath Keepers,
you know, the defined terrorist organizations with leadership that let
that you know, leads violence.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
It's not a highly organized movement. It's a moniker.

Speaker 5 (14:56):
It's it's it's it's not a unified group like the
Proud Boys are things.

Speaker 15 (15:01):
Like Antifa are things that are thought up.

Speaker 10 (15:03):
It's all in the guise of going after Antifa, which
is nothing.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
There's no organization called Antifa.

Speaker 8 (15:08):
Nobody's a number of Antifa because it doesn't exist.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
They are just declaring into existence something that doesn't exist.

Speaker 14 (15:16):
There is no Antifa organization, so maybe that's good for social.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
Media, but it really has is non existent.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
They exist on the Internet and chat rooms and in
four Chan and discord, in places like that where they
run discussion boards, trade tactics, documents, things like that, but
none of them are called Antifa.

Speaker 13 (15:40):
With his finger on the pulse, the King of Ding
continues on the Michael Berry Show.

Speaker 5 (15:48):
Fifty years ago, two day, something special happened in country music.
It was the debut of the Ace in the Hole band,
The Center for Texas music here in San Marcus, Texas
rites quote. On October thirteenth, nineteen seventy five, the Ace
in the Whole Band played at Cheatham Street Warehouse in

(16:10):
San Marcus for the first time. Originally called Stony Ridge,
the Ace in the Whole Band was comprised of college
students who attended Southwest Texas State University, which is now
known as Texas State University. After two band members graduated
in nineteen seventy five, the group was looking for a
new lead singer.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
I love these stories.

Speaker 5 (16:33):
They posted bulletins around the SWT campus before long, and
ag Sciences student named George Strait answered the call. And
the rest, as Paul Harvey would say, is his tree. Actually,
he would say, that's the rest of the story. Well,
but you get my point. The three Stony Ridge originals

(16:55):
Ron Cabal, Mike Day, and Terry Hall. I'm gets some
of these names wrong because I pride myself in knowing
country musicians. But I don't know George's band, so it
might be Cable or might be Cabal. Along with drummer
Ted Stubblefield and George Strait started playing under their new
name Drummer Tony Tommy Foot joined at the end of

(17:18):
seventy five. Perhaps their most recent Their most frequent venue
was Cheatham Street Warehouse, only about a mile and a
half from the Southwest Texas State Campus, where they played
for the first time on this day in nineteen seventy five.
Cheatham Street owner Ken Finley, by the way, insert here
a legend in Texas live music venues, developed a close

(17:41):
relationship with George Strait and the band, even and the
band even becoming the first person to drive George Strait
to Nashville. They played at the venue nearly every week
until the early nineteen eighties. The band still back straight
to this day. That's a good story right there. It
was on this day in nineteen seventy four that renowned

(18:02):
television host Ed Sullivan died of esophageal cancer in New
York City at the age of seventy three. One of
the biggest moments in music and television history unfolded on
his program, The Ed Sullivan Show, when a new group

(18:25):
from Liverpool called The Beatles made their live US debut.
But it's not my favorite Ed Sullivan Show moment. Mine
is the fact that if you ever go to Graceland,
there's a whole feature on this. There's a whole set
of walls that tell the story when Elvis hit when

(18:50):
he made it fifty six. The period of time from
when nobody knew him until over half the population knew
him was less than a month. And in those days
you couldn't go viral the way you can now. You

(19:11):
didn't have you know, Twitter and TikTok and the ability
for one person to share with another person that changes everything.
But it's amazing to me, just absolutely amazing to me
how fast he shot through the stratosphere. And just before

(19:32):
having him on, Ed Sulimon had declared internally that he
would never have him on.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
He was not good.

Speaker 5 (19:41):
Ed Sullivon was the gatekeeper of the Ed Sullivan show.
He had all the power. And I can't remember the
exact story. It was like Dick Cavet or one of
his competitors some of you will know this had I

(20:04):
think it was Elvis. They had someone else on and
the ratings went through the roof, or maybe they had Elvis.
I can't remember exactly, but it's all there at Grayson.
Somebody can fact check me on this and give me
the correct answer. But Ed Sullivan had fallen behind in
the ratings war on this thing, and I think it
must have been Elvis doing another interview and that person's

(20:26):
ratings went up, and Ed Sullivan realized, this is bigger
than you, and if you want your ratings to be
where they need to be, you're going to have to
put him on. And so if you will indulge me,
I know most folks tune in for politics. I like
to talk about things other than just politics. Russa always

(20:47):
had that battle or things show in your mind you
want to share. This was Elvis singing Don't Be Cruel
on January sixth, nineteen fifty seven, a moment that my
mom remembered until her dying days.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
And so this is for her and for you. Thank
you very much, ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 4 (21:11):
Uh, I would like to do the song that it
was my very biggest record last year. I mean it
was no bigger than the rest of them.

Speaker 5 (21:21):
But.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
I sold a few more.

Speaker 4 (21:24):
And uh, what would I could tell you that to
all the people watching and all the people that are
here tonight, that uh, that we really are thankful for
all the success that you you might just have and everything.
This is my biggest record, and uh.

Speaker 12 (21:43):
Here goes something like this. Walk in on the phone,
sitting there and all around, I can't all.

Speaker 8 (22:00):
My fu.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
Me there for me for something I mightest say.

Speaker 12 (22:13):
Please, you don't forget my past.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Jump right here my phone.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
I don't want at all.

Speaker 12 (22:27):
Babies you out, I know, I don't make me feel less.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
Way, come on over here, lost my fucking you know?
Lot of ones?

Speaker 12 (22:42):
You say, I, oh, why shouldn't we be alive?

Speaker 2 (22:51):
I really love baby. Let's walk to the preacher. I
don't know how to have a you.

Speaker 9 (23:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
They spit we them, Michael Berry.

Speaker 4 (23:35):
Nobody's gonna spit on our police offices.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Nobody should have spit or our military.

Speaker 5 (23:42):
Johnie Wrightszar you mentioned the Red Hot Chili Pepers. My
sister's boyfriend bought tickets to see him in l A
a couple of months back.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
On accident.

Speaker 5 (23:51):
He thought he scored some really cheap seats to see
the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I guess he didn't have
his reading glasses on when he ordered him. They loved
the show and thought they were fabulous. Well, you know
what was amazing is the almost the entire crowd. I
stood at the door to listen to people as they left,

(24:12):
and they were speaking with their Scottish brogue.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
The Irish have a brogue. I don't know what you
call the Scottish a brogue.

Speaker 5 (24:19):
Yeah, and it was probably seventy five scotsman. So I
asked the general managers, what's going on with all these? U? No,
what general managers? Steve Sayde's son Brad. I said, why

(24:39):
aren't there all these Is this a Scottish private event?
And he said no, he said, uh so, weirdest thing
I guess because there's so many people from Scotland working
for the oil companies here, which which makes sense. But
when there's a Scottish event they come.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
Out for it. How about that? You just never know.
It's amazing to me how good you.

Speaker 5 (25:02):
Get it running a business. When you run a business,
and if you don't, you go out of business. You know,
when you get to know people who who run a business,
I always like asking them questions because sometimes they stumble on
things and they never expected it and they go, WHOA,
well I got something here, Or sometimes they have this
great this would be me. Sometimes they have this great

(25:22):
idea and this is gonna kill and nobody's ever done it.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
And it's an absolute bust. And you know, so there's that,
there's that too, and you just know this is going
to be the one right here.

Speaker 5 (25:34):
And man, that's why you get to where you don't
even tell people, Hey, well I'm about.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
To do right here.

Speaker 5 (25:41):
It's really good to people are gonna be talking about
this because then it's a complete bust. Whereas if you
hadn't told anybody and ends up halfway successful, then you can,
you know, act like all shucks. I didn't even so
I took Crockett to Love book Kim and a couple

(26:02):
of things I have to say about Lobbock because I've
never been there and we have a lot of listeners
on KFYO. Out of Lovebock went with a friend of
mine named Gary Peterson. He's a big donor to the school.
He grew up in Lubbock and he's very proud of Lubbock.
He took us to see his little modest home he
grew up in on thirty three eleven forty fourth Street.

(26:24):
Met him through Russell Leabara years ago. He is one
of the three founders of a private equity firm called
en Cap, and they have funded a lot of oil
and gas dreams to fruition.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
Over the years, he's done.

Speaker 5 (26:39):
Very successful man, a very generous man, and he's very
eager that Crockett go to his alma mater, which is
Texas Tech. He's given over fifty million dollars five zero
to the place, so he's pretty passionate about it.

Speaker 2 (26:51):
So he said, let's just take him.

Speaker 5 (26:53):
Up, and well, I didn't realize what he meant by
show him around. We get there and he drives us
around the campus, drives us see his his the house
he grew up. And we drive to the old downtown
and you know, we get get a sense of the
of the place. And we checked him and stays a
little hotel called the Overton, which is right across and

(27:13):
you know Lubbock listeners in Lubbock have told me, you know,
you can see this guy for miles. There's all sorts
of jokes about how far you can see the sky
because there's no skyscrapers, no skyscrapers. So in Montana, Wyally,
they call it blue skycountry. It's a blue sky there.
It's beautiful. Actually, I kind of like it. I'm not
used to it, but I like it. And then we

(27:34):
start and he's a big donor to the team. There's
three of them, a guy named John Sellers, Cody Campbell,
and Gary Peterson, and the three of them together put
thirty eight million dollars into NIL and they went out
and bought the best players that you could buy in
the country through the transfer portal.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
So there's no development time.

Speaker 5 (27:53):
And these guys come in and they start contributing, and
they're all from all from major programs to start with.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
And so the team is undefeated. They were ninth going
into the game.

Speaker 5 (28:02):
Of course they won, so they moved up in the
rankings I think to six times.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
I can't recall anyway.

Speaker 5 (28:08):
So there are buildings named or parts of buildings named
after him, and we toured all that, got to have
lunch with the team, got to go in the locker
room before and after with the team, which is really
fun for me. But he's super fun for Crockett because
he's eighteen years old and these guys are a year
older than him, and you know, they're all grabbing him
and excited and high five in him and you know,

(28:29):
roughing him up and you know, like you don't how
dogs in the dog partner. Remember, my young people are
that way I remember. Now I'm like, oh, carefully, you
hurt my back. But anyway, it was it was a
lot of fun. And I got to meet Cody Campbell,
who you see on TV all the time. He's the
one that President Trumps put in charge of the NIL
thing to somehow fix college sports in the finance of

(28:53):
it all. And it's going to be each university can
spend twenty point five million dollars on nil and.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
That's it. That's all.

Speaker 5 (29:02):
You cannot spend a penny more than that. You can
spend twenty point five. A lot of them won't get
to that, but you can spend up to twenty point five.
You cannot spend a penny more.

Speaker 15 (29:11):
Hard and fast unless unless, unless you were to hire
a kid to let's say I just make I'll just
pull a name out of a hat.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
Let me just some random Now it's too random. Eric Dickerson.

Speaker 5 (29:25):
Okay, Let's say let's say let's say you were to
bring Eric Dickerson in, and let's say you were to
own I don't know, car dealership, right, and let's say
you had a gold trans Am and and you know
you ered Dickerson sell some cars.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
You just this got this random guy that I'm coming
up with.

Speaker 5 (29:43):
You know, got goggles and everything, and the neck pad
and the real high step are real fast and on
the option and get to the corner. And yeah, but
let's just say, hypothetically, Eric Dickerson went to work for
your car dealership. Now you could, but Deloitte and Touche
has to review the deal and make make sure that
it looks like a real deal. Like you got to
really want Eric Dickerson to be a car salesman at

(30:06):
your dealership. So anyway, there's that little exception to the rule.
Do with that what you will. But anyway, I like
when people have a chip on the shoulder and Texas
Tech has a chip on their shoulder. A and M
is cocky because they're A and m UT is cocky
because they're ut. But it's nice to see these guys

(30:27):
that are so eager to say, hey, we're at the
table now too. We're a top ten team about to
be a top five team if they went out, they're
going to make the playoffs. But they have a veterinary school. Now,
they have a medical school, now they have a law school.
Now they have a nursing school in El Paso, and
I got to tell you, I think that I think

(30:52):
there is a role for putting campuses for professional degrees
in the small communities of our state that don't have
all the resources. You know, you had to leave Orange
to get a job at that time to go to school.
There's a Lamar campus in Orange now or parts of
a campus. But I think there's something to be said

(31:15):
in these small towns considering how much of the money
that goes into it as taxpayer dollars to creating opportunities.
Because you talk about economic incentives, the hospitals, the the.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Veterinarian We needed another veterinary school.

Speaker 5 (31:31):
It was impossible to get into A and M or Auburn,
and we needed more veterinarians.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
I think it's a good thing. A and M fought
them on that.

Speaker 5 (31:38):
But anyway, for those of you who have kids to
find the school, keep your keep your eye out on
Texas Tech.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
I'm very impressed. I really liked lovebook.

Speaker 5 (31:47):
It's not the streets of New York, but I didn't
get since you were going to get mooted there. I
liked the people, I liked the culture they and they're
trying very hard to treat didn't I did weren't hard
any trades in and no skyscrapers.

Speaker 2 (32:01):
But I really liked the people and I liked the
feel of the town. Yeah. So that's that's my.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
Review of Love and Jele help us, nice lets, good building,
thank you, and goodnight. H
