with Biggest Puma.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Of course we are. You know.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Now we're less than a week away from Spurs basketball,
so we're really rounding into some NBA talk. Of course
now that college football has some company on the docket.
We got hockey started up last week, we got basketball
starting next week. But always got always got to save
room for the monster that is a weekend football. So
(01:02):
the NFL results recapping the college football looking ahead to

Speaker 3 (01:06):
Come hang out with.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Us and I'll say it, go Tech, get your kegs
up or whatever it is you got to say up there.
I love it.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Yeah, I love to see them doing well.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Finally, after what fifty years or something like.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Anyway, I took a little money.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Now you're athlete, your former athlete, Denver's hosting the Taco
Bell fifty K. Have you heard about this?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
I have. Oh my god, I'm so glad you've heard.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Early on in the week we've made fun of Taco
Bell and the Midget. It got crazy. So I love
Taco Bell, don't. I don't even think I should have
to say that, but I love Taco Bell. All right,
this is a thirty one mile marathon, and you have
eleven hours to do it in, but you have to
stop and eat at Taco Bell nine times, and.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
The nine different locations there in the in the Denver
metro area.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah, that's I think you thing. Nobody, We're not making
that up. That's a real thing.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
So I think for the full participation, you at every stop,
you eat one menu item.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
You drink Baja blast.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I think it is are the two staples of what
you do at each A little small Baha blast, one
menu item, then you run to the next one.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
I don't think I would make it too far in
that much less, let alone running thirty one miles.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Let's not be crazy.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Don't alone.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yeah, but add in a bean and cheese taco or you.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Got a wonder you gotta wonder dancing, because if you've
seen Denver as parts of Denver, you gotta wonder how
many people are gonna just run and act like they're
running and go up to get a free burrito or
whatever it was. But run.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
This is this is how I wasted some of my time.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Earlier this week, I was listening to a podcast where
they actually had a guy on as a guest that
ran in it. Yeah, last year, and he said, ever
since Taco Bell invented the order on your app order,
you know, order through the app, when all of the
runners get there, it's just a madhouse because they've all
(03:14):
ordered their food through the app. So they're just running
up there to try to find their bag, and the
poor employees are.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Like, why why are we doing?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Are we getting three hundred orders on the app at
the same time. It's because all the runners are getting
to the local.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
He said, it is.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
He said, it is absolutely crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Just see much less run in it.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
But every time I read this story, I got I
want a Taco Bell tonight actually, so I kind of
want them what's great about Taco Bell is when you're
at the end of the month and you have absolutely
like eight cents left, you can still go eat a
Taco Bell and there's no shame, there an look down
on you. You know, it's good people. It's all I
can see. Uh. Here's a deputy in Tallahassee. He pulls
(03:59):
up to convenience store. A guy is filling his car
with gas. He sees a gas pump and thought it
was a gun, and he pulls his gun out and
holds a guy until he realizes it's a you know,
it's a pump, gas and pump thing, you know, the
handle for the gas pump.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
And I'm sure he'll face uh, some appropriate consequences and uh.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Probably hardly anybody's gonna say anything, you know. God. Uh,
by the way, I've I've drove off with a deal
in my car twice, No, no, once twice once. Uh.
I did it once in dripping and the manager came
(04:45):
out and it They have the quick connect because I'm
not the only one.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
That's done it hop off these days.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
And I knew a person that lived in Montana that
told me Harrison Ford did it one time at their
comediance store. And uh, do you know how he got
that scar on his face?
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Educate me.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
He was trying to put his seat belt on in
this truck and hit a telephone pole. He was looking down.
They couldn't find his seat belt, and he was already
moving like a lot of us have done. And he
hit a telephone pole and hit the hit the steering
wheel and it put his lip and that's why or
cut his chin. And that's why they made it part
of the movie, you know, with the bull whip in
the beginning. Yeah, a little trivia for you there. He
(05:24):
got into an American graffiti. He got into a bar fight,
Harrison Ford did while they were making it, and the
city made them move American graffiti to the next town over.
They pulled their permits on Lucas and them, Uh, just
a little a little more trivia their proay moarning you one.
Uh some Harrison Ford trivia. Let's call it that. Uh,
(05:44):
here's twenty let's see twenty five small hot air balloons
carrying contraband smoke. There were smuggling cigarettes in a Lithuanian
country of Lithuania. I pronounced it correctly, believe it or not. Anyway,
it went over into the airport's airspace and they had
to shut down the airport because these balloons were flying.
(06:04):
They were supposed to go the other way over to
where they'd been purchased, you know, where the guys would
grab them and go sell them instead, and we shifted
and they ended up.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Somebody the weather report that morning. Are you I am
staunchily anti hot air balloon. There is no chance in
hell I would ever get up in one of those things.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I continue, I can give you the negative on it immediately.
You you have to help roll it up when you land.
I didn't know that we did our show from one
I did the I was on air over the city
of Austin. It is so peaceful. I mean, it truly
is just quiet. There's no noise, you know, and then
a little bit of when the guy hits the burner,
(06:49):
the wind decides where you're going, and then when you
kind of pick out a spot. But it's so slow,
it's not like you're you know, but I mean people
have been killed. But you know, they had the one
in uh in, New Mexico this week and it was
just beautiful. But uh we flew all the way across Austin,
and there was a big field and the guy has
his phone and they have a van waiting. But when
(07:10):
it landed, you got to get out and help fold
it up. And I'm telling you that's pain in the hass.
You don't know who I am. I'm Bamma Brown, he said.
He yeah, Bamma Brown. Grab into that thing and roll
it up. Mister Hollywood. Now I tell you something I
did do. It was awesome. I got to drive the
Fuji blimp one time. Whoa, and once again you have
(07:32):
to help hold the rope. But it wasn't near as bad,
you know, but you're you help hold the rope when
when it everybody does you know, uh? And you get
on there and the handle the steering wheel guy goes,
come on up. Man, it's like a go cart. And
once again you're just kind of at the mercy of
the wind or whatever. But I drove it for a
little bit. But we went over to the city of
(07:53):
Austin and this was so weird. The wind. He turned
it into the wind installed it stay, you know. So
it was standing still looking down a couple thousand feet
now a couple of to maybe one thousand feet over
you could see the city great. We were higher than
the buildings. But you're looking down and you're not moving,
(08:14):
and there's no sound. You're just looking. It's like you're
in a you know, I don't know, spaceship or something
looking down on the city. It was really cool. Yeah,
and Ouji guys were great. That was pretty cool. Speaking
of spaceship. I didn't say it on purpose, but I
thought this was pretty cool. There's a company called Inversion.
If you're looking to invest in a company Inversion, they're
(08:36):
developing a spaceship that will deliver five hundred pounds of
supplies in an hour in return the rocket back to Earth.
So whenever they get the space station whatever, the next
one's going to be a big one. You know, they'll
be able to shoot materials whatever, five hundred pounds worth
up in one hour. So you can order your you know,
(08:59):
I'm sure you can order your Amazon. I know I
haven't delivered the space stations, right you Taco Bell come up?
But that anyway, if you're looking to to invest in something,
that might be a pretty good one to invest in.
You want to end it, uh in the week with
the best cities to drive in.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Oh oh yeah, Actually, I'm curious Uh, I can't imagine
any Texas cities make this.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Oh, there's several. I can't really believe it either. Uh,
let's start out. These are the best ones and the
worst ones. So I do the best first, and then
the worst. Uh. Number ten Winston Salem, North Carolina. Number
nine Austin, Texas. That's bullshit. Yeah, what are we?
Speaker 3 (09:40):
What are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (09:41):
What o'kill? I was o kill two weeks ago. There's
so many barrels. I'm not even sure I wasn't driving
into construction zone. I told Jamie, I said, I'm not
even sure we're on the road anymore. I don't know
where we are, but.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
It's impossible we were over there a couple of weeks ago.
I should have given you a shout. And it seems
it seems like that I saw them build when I
was in college is now being worked on again, or
it's still ongoing from twenty years ago.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Our city flower is truly the orange barrel, that's what
that's what we call it. Number eight Plano. I've been
through plan Oh. I didn't think it was all that hard.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
But yeah, yeah, I was about to say, I mean,
all Plano is is a bunch of micro mansion subdivisions.
It's not there's not a whole lot to see or
enjoy driving wise, it's all red lights.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Right. Number seven Birmingham. I remember I was there when
I was a kid, but had been there in years.
Number six Lubbock, Texas.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Okay, okay, the only way Lubbock is the only Texas
city I actually would put on this list. Yeah, because
it's well designed, well laid out, and a loop. It's
got a loop and a spur, and all of going
one way, all of the street names are in alphabetical order,
(11:03):
and then going the other way, all the street names
are in numerical order.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Exactly if you're at.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
If you're at Boston and third and you're trying to
get to Quaker in thirty fourth, you can.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Instantly know exactly where.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
It's so perfect. I actually agree with that one. With
a lot of Lubbic love on the program this week.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
The thing about Lubbock is whenever you meet somebody that's
been transferred there in business. Yeah, I got transferred to
the Lubbuck like I got sent to the Ukraine. You know,
is that kind of deal. It is a bit partied
up there, you know. I lived in Odessa and didn't
have any money, and I rough nicked in Seminole, which
is halfway between Odessa and I'm an hour I of
love ak, it's Seminole. I'd roughneck Ogdens and so I
(11:45):
did yeah, And so I did all of the different
shifts on the rig, and so I got Saturday night
off and my two best friends were Tech and I
would go up and see him every weekend and party.
And the Pikes tried to rush me while I was there,
and I got dude, I didn't go to school here,
and the guy goes, what you're here every Saturday night?
I come up with the part I don't need the school,
(12:07):
couldn't do the school, have any money.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
But I'm majoring in partying.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Wow, man, it was a good time.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
I hadn't thought about Seminole.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
And so my sophomore year of high school, the last
game we lost that year was to Seminole in Lubbock
in the regional championship up there.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
It was an old old town and a lot of
Mennonites lived there. It's a Mennonite community. Big Big Laredo
was number five. It's been a long time since I
was in Laredo. So I don't know. I couldn't answer that.
Number four Scottsdale, Number three, Boise, Idaho. Number two Greensboro,
(12:53):
North Carolina. But number one I can answer on Corpus.
Corpus is very easy to drive through and drive in. Uh.
You go straight to the end, you go left, you
go to port A, or you can go south. The
corpus is laid out really, I mean it makes that split.
You can go south or you can go you know
left into Corpus.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
You know well, and now especially since they opened that
the new bridge.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Yeah, that makes all arms.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
They anytime we go to port A, I still like
to take the long route.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Uh, end up taking.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
The ferry across the ferry Portland all that, and then
circle back down and do the ocean side drive right
there where all the parks and the old older mansions
are so cool.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Yeah, that's a that's a neat, neat place. Uh. I
was there, Uh three days after the hurricane Oh damn.
Went down with the Hayes County Sheriff's departments because we
had several guys that went down there and got jobs,
they left and so their houses were wiped out. And
so I went down with the with the inner caravan
of dippity cars and had a trailer. We gases on
(14:01):
it because we weren't sure if we're gonna get gas.
So I had gas tanks and I had five wheelbarrows,
shovels and rakes and stuff that we used to It
was my donation, actually, I donated a couple of grand
all that stuff. We went down there, and I'd never
seen devastation like that ever. I just couldn't imagine that
(14:24):
they'd ever build it back. I go, kylie. I mean,
it was just destroyed, but they built it back. But
boats laying in the street and stuff is crazy, you know.
So all right, now here's the worst cities. There's a
common theme here, Democrats. But anyway, let me start number ten, Baltimore,
number nine, San Jose, number eight, Los Angeles. These are
(14:46):
the worst cities to drive in. Number seven Detroit, number six,
San Francisco, number four or five Chicago, four, New York
three DC. Number two is Oakland, and number one is Philadelphia.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
How in the hell did Houston not make that look?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
I can't. I don't know that it should be. It
should be because it is hard to I mean, whenever
you're going down ten, if you're trying to get through
Houston ten you just give up.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Try to drive from from Katie to Galveston or that's
a three day It's like you're on horseback. It's a
three day trip.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
They I think at some point they could make a
cut around from Katie. I'm sure there's you could still
do it, you know, but it's probably just such a
two lane pain in the ass. But I need to
have like just an over and under that you can
do that a toll even, you know.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
So it's you run for governor, it sounds like it
sounds like you've got some some.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Ideas felony conviction going to keep that from happening once again.
I don't you think they'll background check. I don't know.
You know, so I could do it, though, man, i'd
have a cleaned up pretty quick. I would, just because
I'd only work on half the state. Anything west to Brownwood.
(16:05):
I just get y'all on your own.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Underwood's Underwood's Cafe in Brownwood is the line of line
that's Dixon.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Hell. I could make Atlanto. I just cut it Atlanto.
I'm good with that. Do there from top to bottom.
I mean, go look at a map, you know, there's
a lot of people know this. When they were measuring
New Mexico and up from the point where New Mexico
goes up by Amarillo all the way to the top,
they misjudged that and they actually took, according to you
(16:38):
have to look this up, they took five hundred and
something square miles of New Mexico into Texas because they
mismeasured the survey crew did. And somebody said, I can
keep that.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
What are you gonna do with Clovis New Mexico.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
I mean, yeah, so you get you got hobbs all
up to there. You know, it's real close, and that's
why sos of the line. And they got this just
ground and there's an old oil there. There's nothing there.
It's just nothing. Now it's windmills. I think there's some,
but I mean there's nothing. There's no reason to and
nobody thought over it.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Fight over it, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
And while they were measuring they got it wrong. The
guy goes, yeah, whatever, man, nobody's gonna checked this. Who cares?
But they look that up. True story. I think it
was I want to say five hundred square miles and
maybe only two, but it was two hundred and five
in or something like that. So this should have been
New Mexico. So there you go. See what you learn
in this shitty show. There's stuff you didn't know, and
(17:39):
it's every show we do some of this, so you know,
you you'll learn, You learn, all right, y'all have a
great weekend.

He was trying to put his seat belt on in

They pulled their permits on Lucas and them, Uh, just
a little a little more trivia their proay moarning you one.
Uh some Harrison Ford trivia. Let's call it that. Uh,
(05:44):
here's twenty let's see twenty five small hot air balloons
carrying contraband smoke. There were smuggling cigarettes in a Lithuanian
country of Lithuania. I pronounced it correctly, believe it or not. Anyway,
it went over into the airport's airspace and they had
to shut down the airport because these balloons were flying.
(06:04):
They were supposed to go the other way over to
where they'd been purchased, you know, where the guys would
grab them and go sell them instead, and we shifted
and they ended up.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Somebody the weather report that morning. Are you I am
staunchily anti hot air balloon. There is no chance in
hell I would ever get up in one of those things.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I continue, I can give you the negative on it immediately.
You you have to help roll it up when you land.
I didn't know that we did our show from one
I did the I was on air over the city
of Austin. It is so peaceful. I mean, it truly
is just quiet. There's no noise, you know, and then
a little bit of when the guy hits the burner,
(06:49):
the wind decides where you're going, and then when you
kind of pick out a spot. But it's so slow,
it's not like you're you know, but I mean people
have been killed. But you know, they had the one
in uh in, New Mexico this week and it was
just beautiful. But uh we flew all the way across Austin,
and there was a big field and the guy has
his phone and they have a van waiting. But when
(07:10):
it landed, you got to get out and help fold
it up. And I'm telling you that's pain in the hass.
You don't know who I am. I'm Bamma Brown, he said.
He yeah, Bamma Brown. Grab into that thing and roll
it up. Mister Hollywood. Now I tell you something I
did do. It was awesome. I got to drive the
Fuji blimp one time. Whoa, and once again you have
(07:32):
to help hold the rope. But it wasn't near as bad,
you know, but you're you help hold the rope when
when it everybody does you know, uh? And you get
on there and the handle the steering wheel guy goes,
come on up. Man, it's like a go cart. And
once again you're just kind of at the mercy of
the wind or whatever. But I drove it for a
little bit. But we went over to the city of
(07:53):
Austin and this was so weird. The wind. He turned
it into the wind installed it stay, you know. So
it was standing still looking down a couple thousand feet
now a couple of to maybe one thousand feet over
you could see the city great. We were higher than
the buildings. But you're looking down and you're not moving,
(08:14):
and there's no sound. You're just looking. It's like you're
in a you know, I don't know, spaceship or something
looking down on the city. It was really cool. Yeah,
and Ouji guys were great. That was pretty cool. Speaking
of spaceship. I didn't say it on purpose, but I
thought this was pretty cool. There's a company called Inversion.
If you're looking to invest in a company Inversion, they're
(08:36):
developing a spaceship that will deliver five hundred pounds of
supplies in an hour in return the rocket back to Earth.
So whenever they get the space station whatever, the next
one's going to be a big one. You know, they'll
be able to shoot materials whatever, five hundred pounds worth
up in one hour. So you can order your you know,
(08:59):
I'm sure you can order your Amazon. I know I
haven't delivered the space stations, right you Taco Bell come up?
But that anyway, if you're looking to to invest in something,
that might be a pretty good one to invest in.
You want to end it, uh in the week with
the best cities to drive in.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Oh oh yeah, Actually, I'm curious Uh, I can't imagine
any Texas cities make this.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Oh, there's several. I can't really believe it either. Uh,
let's start out. These are the best ones and the
worst ones. So I do the best first, and then
the worst. Uh. Number ten Winston Salem, North Carolina. Number
nine Austin, Texas. That's bullshit. Yeah, what are we?
Speaker 3 (09:40):
What are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (09:41):
What o'kill? I was o kill two weeks ago. There's
so many barrels. I'm not even sure I wasn't driving
into construction zone. I told Jamie, I said, I'm not
even sure we're on the road anymore. I don't know
where we are, but.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
It's impossible we were over there a couple of weeks ago.
I should have given you a shout. And it seems
it seems like that I saw them build when I
was in college is now being worked on again, or
it's still ongoing from twenty years ago.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Our city flower is truly the orange barrel, that's what
that's what we call it. Number eight Plano. I've been
through plan Oh. I didn't think it was all that hard.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
But yeah, yeah, I was about to say, I mean,
all Plano is is a bunch of micro mansion subdivisions.
It's not there's not a whole lot to see or
enjoy driving wise, it's all red lights.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Right. Number seven Birmingham. I remember I was there when
I was a kid, but had been there in years.
Number six Lubbock, Texas.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Okay, okay, the only way Lubbock is the only Texas
city I actually would put on this list. Yeah, because
it's well designed, well laid out, and a loop. It's
got a loop and a spur, and all of going
one way, all of the street names are in alphabetical order,
(11:03):
and then going the other way, all the street names
are in numerical order.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Exactly if you're at.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
If you're at Boston and third and you're trying to
get to Quaker in thirty fourth, you can.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Instantly know exactly where.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
It's so perfect. I actually agree with that one. With
a lot of Lubbic love on the program this week.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
The thing about Lubbock is whenever you meet somebody that's
been transferred there in business. Yeah, I got transferred to
the Lubbuck like I got sent to the Ukraine. You know,
is that kind of deal. It is a bit partied
up there, you know. I lived in Odessa and didn't
have any money, and I rough nicked in Seminole, which
is halfway between Odessa and I'm an hour I of
love ak, it's Seminole. I'd roughneck Ogdens and so I
(11:45):
did yeah, And so I did all of the different
shifts on the rig, and so I got Saturday night
off and my two best friends were Tech and I
would go up and see him every weekend and party.
And the Pikes tried to rush me while I was there,
and I got dude, I didn't go to school here,
and the guy goes, what you're here every Saturday night?
I come up with the part I don't need the school,
(12:07):
couldn't do the school, have any money.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
But I'm majoring in partying.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Wow, man, it was a good time.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
I hadn't thought about Seminole.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
And so my sophomore year of high school, the last
game we lost that year was to Seminole in Lubbock
in the regional championship up there.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
It was an old old town and a lot of
Mennonites lived there. It's a Mennonite community. Big Big Laredo
was number five. It's been a long time since I
was in Laredo. So I don't know. I couldn't answer that.
Number four Scottsdale, Number three, Boise, Idaho. Number two Greensboro,
(12:53):
North Carolina. But number one I can answer on Corpus.
Corpus is very easy to drive through and drive in. Uh.
You go straight to the end, you go left, you
go to port A, or you can go south. The
corpus is laid out really, I mean it makes that split.
You can go south or you can go you know
left into Corpus.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
You know well, and now especially since they opened that
the new bridge.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Yeah, that makes all arms.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
They anytime we go to port A, I still like
to take the long route.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Uh, end up taking.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
The ferry across the ferry Portland all that, and then
circle back down and do the ocean side drive right
there where all the parks and the old older mansions
are so cool.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Yeah, that's a that's a neat, neat place. Uh. I
was there, Uh three days after the hurricane Oh damn.
Went down with the Hayes County Sheriff's departments because we
had several guys that went down there and got jobs,
they left and so their houses were wiped out. And
so I went down with the with the inner caravan
of dippity cars and had a trailer. We gases on
(14:01):
it because we weren't sure if we're gonna get gas.
So I had gas tanks and I had five wheelbarrows,
shovels and rakes and stuff that we used to It
was my donation, actually, I donated a couple of grand
all that stuff. We went down there, and I'd never
seen devastation like that ever. I just couldn't imagine that
(14:24):
they'd ever build it back. I go, kylie. I mean,
it was just destroyed, but they built it back. But
boats laying in the street and stuff is crazy, you know.
So all right, now here's the worst cities. There's a
common theme here, Democrats. But anyway, let me start number ten, Baltimore,
number nine, San Jose, number eight, Los Angeles. These are
(14:46):
the worst cities to drive in. Number seven Detroit, number six,
San Francisco, number four or five Chicago, four, New York
three DC. Number two is Oakland, and number one is Philadelphia.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
How in the hell did Houston not make that look?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
I can't. I don't know that it should be. It
should be because it is hard to I mean, whenever
you're going down ten, if you're trying to get through
Houston ten you just give up.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Try to drive from from Katie to Galveston or that's
a three day It's like you're on horseback. It's a
three day trip.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
They I think at some point they could make a
cut around from Katie. I'm sure there's you could still
do it, you know, but it's probably just such a
two lane pain in the ass. But I need to
have like just an over and under that you can
do that a toll even, you know.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
So it's you run for governor, it sounds like it
sounds like you've got some some.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Ideas felony conviction going to keep that from happening once again.
I don't you think they'll background check. I don't know.
You know, so I could do it, though, man, i'd
have a cleaned up pretty quick. I would, just because
I'd only work on half the state. Anything west to Brownwood.
(16:05):
I just get y'all on your own.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Underwood's Underwood's Cafe in Brownwood is the line of line
that's Dixon.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Hell. I could make Atlanto. I just cut it Atlanto.
I'm good with that. Do there from top to bottom.
I mean, go look at a map, you know, there's
a lot of people know this. When they were measuring
New Mexico and up from the point where New Mexico
goes up by Amarillo all the way to the top,
they misjudged that and they actually took, according to you
(16:38):
have to look this up, they took five hundred and
something square miles of New Mexico into Texas because they
mismeasured the survey crew did. And somebody said, I can
keep that.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
What are you gonna do with Clovis New Mexico.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
I mean, yeah, so you get you got hobbs all
up to there. You know, it's real close, and that's
why sos of the line. And they got this just
ground and there's an old oil there. There's nothing there.
It's just nothing. Now it's windmills. I think there's some,
but I mean there's nothing. There's no reason to and
nobody thought over it.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Fight over it, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
And while they were measuring they got it wrong. The
guy goes, yeah, whatever, man, nobody's gonna checked this. Who cares?
But they look that up. True story. I think it
was I want to say five hundred square miles and
maybe only two, but it was two hundred and five
in or something like that. So this should have been
New Mexico. So there you go. See what you learn
in this shitty show. There's stuff you didn't know, and
(17:39):
it's every show we do some of this, so you know,
you you'll learn, You learn, all right, y'all have a
great weekend.
