Speaker 1 (00:00):
I ever saw it.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I think it was about a black guy who wanted
to be in the NBA but he couldn't be, so
he played women's basketball instead.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Huh. I bet that worked out pretty good for him. Huh. Bro,
we're this close to that right now.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
That well, yeah, and the women in charge of the
WNBA are afraid to tell you that that's wrong, so
they're out defending the trans community.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Will you talk about how this has progressed over the years,
but you go back, go back a few years.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
To Joanna Man.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
I don't know how long ago that was, but it
was pretty long time ago, and they were dealing with
these things like it was a ridiculosity. It was Sorry,
this will never actually happen in reality, so let's just
make a funny.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Movie about it.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
You know, the other day we played the opening song
from All in the Family, remember that the Archie Bunker,
Edith and all that kind of stuff, during Piano Nostalgia Day.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
That was just yesterday or the day before. I forget. Uh,
we'll get an email about.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
That says good morning when you had Edith singing that song,
you know, those were the day It starts out. Well,
during the song, the line actually says, and you knew
who you were. Then goyles were goyles.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
And men were men. That was fifty five years ago.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
And when they wrote that lyric back then, they were
just really talking about how hippie boys had long hair exactly.
It wasn't even about cross dressing weirdos, no or or.
It actually got worse.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Finding men in the little girl's bathroom stall. That's upsetting.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
If you're on my ex account, if you follow me
on X. We posted a video last night. A lot
of context is needed in this video, but it went
viral and I thought we should share it. An unidentified
Houston man supposedly waiting inside a women's restroom.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
I mean there's no supposedly he is. Oh, yeah, we
got the videos.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
And a little girl walks in to use the bathroom,
and then they see the guys just hanging out in
a stall. And he doesn't even look like he's trying
to be a trainee. He's a man in a baseball
cap with a beard. He's burly looking. The mom comes
in and goes, what's he doing here? So a store
clerk comes in, or a restaurant worker or whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, I don't know what kind of a business it is.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
An employee of the business says, look, you got to
get out of here. We're calling the cops. And he
walks out, and there's a white family there and a
black lady and they all start shaming him. Similar restroom
incidents involving voyeurism or intrusion have occurred at Houston venues
in recent years, like NRG Stadium, So the concern over
this is valid. If anybody has any context about that video,
(02:28):
if you've seen it on my ex account, we'd love
to know what that's all about. And if you know
who that guy is and he was doing what we
think he is, please you know it will alert someone
kind of weird.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
In the video, the employee, I guess, walked into the bathroom,
went down. There's multiple stalls with the doors closed, and
she went to the last stall in the line and
pushed the door open. Right, it wasn't locked. I don't
know what he was doing in there at that moment,
but he came right out. When he walked out, I mean,
he was fully dressed like he was. She was zipping
(03:01):
up or anything, So why was he just lurking? It
seems like he was just in there lurking, and I
find that a bit disturbing.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
I don't know about you.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Yeah, I would like to know where that happened.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
We want to know too. We have a lot of
questions about that. Now.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
In the meantime, a lot of people have mentioned how
Ariana Grande don look healthy lately.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Have you noticed that? Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Now, for her part, she says, this plan to step
away from work at the end of the month, that's
been in the works for a long time. This this
isn't just a sudden thing because people were worried she
was gonna die soon. She said, no, no, we planned
that all along. I don't think that's true. I call
her out on that.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
As a young woman she worked for she was a
star of a TV show produced by that creep, Dan Schneider.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Is that what they call him?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Quiet? On the set, he had her do some strange things.
I didn't I was in the right generation for that
show she was on. I don't even know what it
was called. But the clips can be found on social
media where he's having her hold a potato like it's
a sex toy, or lay upside down.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
On a bed while gagging on a water bottle.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Sucking her own toes like weird stuff to ask a
kid to do on a TV show. And anyway, I
don't know what happened to her, but as an adult,
she's clearly a little messed up from having the stage
mom experience as a kid. And it has been pointed
out by some of the defenders of Ariana Grande that
we shouldn't body shame, we shouldn't talk about her body.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Well, don't you think back in nineteen.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Eighty three there'd been some more body shaming for Karen Carpenter.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
She might still be alive right now. Somebody just fixed
the girl's sandwich. Hell, even a half a sandwich would
have been something for her.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
For our younger listeners, they may not remember this.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Karen Carpenter died of heart failure linked to aurexia nervosa complications.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Can you explain who she is?
Speaker 3 (04:50):
She was one of the carpenters. Yeah, it was was
her brother and she. They were the carpenters. They were
they had huge hits. Back in the day, you would
have a huge what yeah, oh heck, big songs?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Oh my bad.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
You probably wouldn't care for most of them. Now, it
was a different time. Things were you know, a lot
different then, and she just refused to eat.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Would you say that this was pop music or folk
or what was it?
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Folk maybe, I mean pop at the time.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
But super popular, mainstream, top top forty music. And all
of a sudden it was a singing group, right, And
all of a sudden the lead woman, the cute, pretty
skinny one dies. Yeah, the sister heart failure, age thirty three,
age thirty two. Apparently she would use laxatives to lose weight,
extreme laxative use. After years of her shrinking flame being
(05:39):
dismissed as exhaustion, finally she fell.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Over and died. Now, mental illness.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
When she looked in the mirror, when you saw her,
she was skeletal, I mean upper arms, same size as
her wrist. The elbow was the biggest part of her arm. Yeah,
she looked like she was about to die, and then
she did. But when she saw herself in the mirror,
all she saw was fat. Ah, I gotta lose weight,
(06:05):
I gotta do whatever it takes, don't eat, take laccidents
just and she died.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Now, back in those days, we didn't have social media,
we didn't have Twitter and Instagram, so we could see
these pop stars all the time and the evolution of
their unhealthy bodies or whatever, maybe the weight loss, the
ozembic abuse, whatever it was or is now. But we
see it with Ariana Grande. They are the same age. Well,
she's a year older. Karen Carpenter was thirty two when
(06:30):
she died. Ariana Grande's thirty three. Do you think someone
should say something?
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Yeah, And some people are and they're being shamed for it.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Right, You're not supposed to point out that this is
unhealthy and this person's endangering their life.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
They shame and the shamers, Well shouldn't the shaming of
the shaming be shamed? They all not be shame and
the shamer because they say shame is a bad thing,
and yet that's what they do.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
In Honestly, I don't even remember what we were talking
about now. Yeah, it's like looking in the mirror and
there's another mirror behind you. Well, that goes on forever.
And this is the second time we talked about the
Carpenter's and.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
There shout to mention that that's kind of weird, huh,
because they don't normally come up much.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Because earlier you said that guy was from Downey and
they're famous for the carpenters.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
And was he from Downey or was he Downey? See,
that was what I wanted to know. No, he's from
Downey City in California, which is I'm told where the
carpenters were from. And that came from a pretty reliable
source because.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
You called him a Downy man.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
And when you said that, my first thought was if
we're not allowed to say the R word, I don't
think where that should be.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Okay, No, but we are allowed. Yeah, sometimes we just
choose not to. Anyway, it's state fair season. They are
a lot of fun. But if you go to a
state fair, don't get ripped off.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
This week, on a special date line Carneie Confessional, anonymous
employees reveal secrets this state fair doesn't want you to know.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Hick Kenny, Robert Dock. You want none? Are the winners shocking?
Speaker 4 (07:59):
The hoop is than the basketball? Who knew the darts
ain't sharp enough to pop the balloon?
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Wtf?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
The bearded lady, Yeah, that's just a fat guy named Bubba.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
It's all a lie.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
The goldfish, your kid one will be dead in an hour.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
YEP, might as well name it float Kid.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
I'm wanted in thirteen states for dealing mess.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Well that one not hard to believe.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Carnie Confessional this week on Dateline.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Now with Les Floride. It's the Walton and Johnson Show.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
You have done it Now to talk tell Kenny I
got a bone to pick with him. It's not that
big a bone I think she's talking about, or he
whoever wrote this doesn't say big bone to pick with
you about your story over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
And here's a couple more. Actually, it's the.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
You need to know that the casino that you spoke of,
uh huh is in uh Margeritaville is in Biloxi, not
Gulf Port. Don't get Gulf Portians mixed up with them
folks over there with the Biloxians. So there's kind of
a shreport bosure thing going on in Gulfport Biloxi.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
I didn't know the people in golf Port and Biloxi
hated each other like the people in Shreeport in Bojer
or Gaza in Israel.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Well, you've done it. Oh you you fired him up now.
I don't even know if an apology is enough. You
might have to maybe buy offered to buy these people
breakfast like you did for your buddy at the casino.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Well, you're in luck. I'm not kind of apologized. No,
I wouldn't think so.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
No, but I but I get there point upset. I
wasn't driving, though, if it makes you feel any better.
In fact, in fact, nobody was. We were in one
of those self driving cars. No, you did that too.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
I mean I didn't. It's not my car. I was
just in it.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Oh but I mean it wasn't like you just hired
it for a taxi because they have those two self
driving taxis you know that will come pick you up.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I don't want that. See.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
That's the other thing that drives me nuts. Jesse loves
his Testla, like has it lives itself? He just got
it and I was like, oh that's cool. So, uh,
when it's driving around, what do you you know? What
do you do with your hands? He's like, that's the thing.
I can't do anything with them because if I do,
an alarm will go off.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Am like an alarm? Why? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I thought the alarm goes off if you get too
close to something in traffic.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
No, as it's self driving itself.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
If you pick up your phone and start playing with
your phone, it knows what you're doing, and the car
I'll go bab and you have to put your phone down.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
There's the point of it driving for you if you
still have to be there to drive it.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Thank you, And yet you might as well drive. It'll
give you something to do.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
When when people buy a Tesla or or whatever new
kind of fangled gadget they get, and you ask them how,
you know how they love it and they say.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Oh, my god, I love it. It's the best thing ever.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Do you think they're really just saying that to keep
from admitting that they shouldn't have done it.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
It's not the worst thing ever, But is it the best?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
All the things you would think we're annoying about it,
we're just as annoying. You've got to charge the car
forty five minutes or whatever. By the way, someone emailed
and asked a question about the casino story I told
about Jesse. Is this why Jesse sells his shirt for
five hundred dollars at the end of the comedy show
so he can run to the.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Casino floor, asks Mike.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
No.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Jesse sells a shirt for five hundred bucks at his
comedy shows to raise money for wheelchairs for Warriors.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
It's the shirt he was wearing while on stage, right,
it's got his DNA all over it.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
But he does play poker and but yeah, no, that's true.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
If you you know, if you go to the show,
and that's how we pay for Operation Comedy Therapy.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
All the all the.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Comedians performed for free usually, but we still need money
for a sound system and promotion and that sort of thing.
So the way that we fund it is Jesse sells
those shirts. Now it is possible you can walk and
chew gum at the same time. He's a pretty successful comedian.
The t shirts he sells are a small part of
what he does. You're exactly, yeah, that the money. Baytown
(12:02):
Police have a situation. The reason I figured this out,
I was looking to figure out where that dude was
in the women's restroom. But if you search man in
women's restroom in Houston, you get so many stories, so
so many different occasions, you can't tell which one was
the one we were looking for. We got a dude
(12:23):
in Austin in the ladies' restroom at the Capitol Building,
you know, because obviously they're trying to make a political
point out of it.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
This one that one everywhere. Dude in the ladies' restroom.
Guys in the ladies' restroom. Sometimes they're just standing around.
Sometimes they're doing worse. And then the Baytown Police Department
got a story in there. They was looking for this, Well,
they found a fugitive of the law. Baytown Police said
they at a traffic stop. They ran the guy's ID
(12:53):
found out that he was wanted in Chambers County for
aggravated assault with.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
A deadly weapon.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Police take that kind of stuff seriously, apparently so. During
the stop, police said, the wanted suspect and a second
individual both refused to comply with the officer's commands.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Uh, you should always comply.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
At that point, the officers uh used pepper balls U
and they released a dog to try to bring these
two gentlemen into custody.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Well maybe the pepper balls where so the dog could
have a little flavoring the purp.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
One of the individuals was taken into custody, you know,
after the dog got after him a little bit, sure,
please say the other man, the wanted fugitive that they
were really interested in, crawled into the trunk of the
car and pulled it closed.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
When the officers were finally able to open the trunk.
The officer said that the man inside that they were
you know, looking to arrest, was unconscious and in medical distress.
Aid was given. He was taken to the hospital, where
they pronounced him D E A D dead on arrival. No,
(14:06):
no firearms were discharged during the incident. They want you
to know, I don't know if the pepper balls caused
him to uh, you know, of course it'll mass you
breathing up if you, you know, inhale some of that stuff,
or if the thread of a dog's you know, nashing
on his nads. But when he crawled into that trunk,
he didn't crawl out.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
I've never been peppered with the pepper balls before. That
doesn't sound very good.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
You do have some of that, though, if you wanted
to try it. I've got a burner, yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
And they've got you know, regularly like pepper ball kind of.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Stuff, right.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I have a lot of self defense stuff called munition.
I have the burner and I'm happy to use it.
But uh, I gotta tell you these days, I'm wouldn't
hesitate to use my glock.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Just make sure you know which one you pull when
you pull.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Well, if the person's violently attacking you in a court
a lot, I don't think it really matters, does it Here?
Speaker 1 (14:58):
It might matter if you want to live, You're I
have to prove it. Sometimes.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
The dudes that's hopped up on drugs, you know, they
can fight through a taser. They'll fight through some pepper balls.
I mean, they might be tearing up and slinging. It's
not everywhere, but they can still be on you.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
I think the burner is great if it's the first
time someone attacks you, but if they keep bothering you,
you got to use the pistol.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Well.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Yeah, and it's also best to keep them at a distance.
They get too close, then yeah that you know Berner
is just gonna piss them off.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I sleep with both of them next to my bed,
and if someone breaks into my house at night when
it's dark, look, it's it's a roulette wheld to figure
out which one I'm picking up and shooting at you.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
I'm just curious. You know, none of my business will
go on your bedroom. But do you keep the clock
and the burner right next to your phone, which is
also your alarm clock. They'll wake you up out of
a sound sleep at four o'clock in the morning and
you're reaching over there slapping at that thing. Do you
know which one you're hitting?
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Oh yeah, I've trained for that. Yeah yeah, yeah, look
you so far.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Just to keep it, just to be safe, I keep
them all a few centimeters apart.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Well that's smart.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah exactly. You know that's firearm safety. That's why we
took that class.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
You gotta be like that gat the in and out
burger man. You gotta be able to make you move.
You notice that dude cave the minute somebody started shooting back. Yeah,
that's how these people are.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
And just to make sure I'm real slick, I got
an iPhone case that's shaped like a gun. That's real smart. Yeah,
thank you. Walking the back as Tom O'Brien looks on
Personal File sixty nine offense, who's giving them the business?
This is the Waltman Johnson Show.
I ever saw it.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I think it was about a black guy who wanted
to be in the NBA but he couldn't be, so
he played women's basketball instead.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Huh. I bet that worked out pretty good for him. Huh. Bro,
we're this close to that right now.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
That well, yeah, and the women in charge of the
WNBA are afraid to tell you that that's wrong, so
they're out defending the trans community.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Will you talk about how this has progressed over the years,
but you go back, go back a few years.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
To Joanna Man.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
I don't know how long ago that was, but it
was pretty long time ago, and they were dealing with

I didn't I was in the right generation for that
show she was on. I don't even know what it
was called. But the clips can be found on social
media where he's having her hold a potato like it's
a sex toy, or lay upside down.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
On a bed while gagging on a water bottle.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Sucking her own toes like weird stuff to ask a
kid to do on a TV show. And anyway, I
don't know what happened to her, but as an adult,
she's clearly a little messed up from having the stage
mom experience as a kid. And it has been pointed
out by some of the defenders of Ariana Grande that
we shouldn't body shame, we shouldn't talk about her body.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Well, don't you think back in nineteen.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Eighty three there'd been some more body shaming for Karen Carpenter.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
She might still be alive right now. Somebody just fixed
the girl's sandwich. Hell, even a half a sandwich would
have been something for her.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
For our younger listeners, they may not remember this.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Karen Carpenter died of heart failure linked to aurexia nervosa complications.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Can you explain who she is?
Speaker 3 (04:50):
She was one of the carpenters. Yeah, it was was
her brother and she. They were the carpenters. They were
they had huge hits. Back in the day, you would
have a huge what yeah, oh heck, big songs?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Oh my bad.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
You probably wouldn't care for most of them. Now, it
was a different time. Things were you know, a lot
different then, and she just refused to eat.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Would you say that this was pop music or folk
or what was it?
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Folk maybe, I mean pop at the time.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
But super popular, mainstream, top top forty music. And all
of a sudden it was a singing group, right, And
all of a sudden the lead woman, the cute, pretty
skinny one dies. Yeah, the sister heart failure, age thirty three,
age thirty two. Apparently she would use laxatives to lose weight,
extreme laxative use. After years of her shrinking flame being
(05:39):
dismissed as exhaustion, finally she fell.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Over and died. Now, mental illness.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
When she looked in the mirror, when you saw her,
she was skeletal, I mean upper arms, same size as
her wrist. The elbow was the biggest part of her arm. Yeah,
she looked like she was about to die, and then
she did. But when she saw herself in the mirror,
all she saw was fat. Ah, I gotta lose weight,
(06:05):
I gotta do whatever it takes, don't eat, take laccidents
just and she died.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Now, back in those days, we didn't have social media,
we didn't have Twitter and Instagram, so we could see
these pop stars all the time and the evolution of
their unhealthy bodies or whatever, maybe the weight loss, the
ozembic abuse, whatever it was or is now. But we
see it with Ariana Grande. They are the same age. Well,
she's a year older. Karen Carpenter was thirty two when
(06:30):
she died. Ariana Grande's thirty three. Do you think someone
should say something?
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Yeah, And some people are and they're being shamed for it.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Right, You're not supposed to point out that this is
unhealthy and this person's endangering their life.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
They shame and the shamers, Well shouldn't the shaming of
the shaming be shamed? They all not be shame and
the shamer because they say shame is a bad thing,
and yet that's what they do.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
In Honestly, I don't even remember what we were talking
about now. Yeah, it's like looking in the mirror and
there's another mirror behind you. Well, that goes on forever.
And this is the second time we talked about the
Carpenter's and.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
There shout to mention that that's kind of weird, huh,
because they don't normally come up much.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Because earlier you said that guy was from Downey and
they're famous for the carpenters.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
And was he from Downey or was he Downey? See,
that was what I wanted to know. No, he's from
Downey City in California, which is I'm told where the
carpenters were from. And that came from a pretty reliable
source because.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
You called him a Downy man.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
And when you said that, my first thought was if
we're not allowed to say the R word, I don't
think where that should be.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Okay, No, but we are allowed. Yeah, sometimes we just
choose not to. Anyway, it's state fair season. They are
a lot of fun. But if you go to a
state fair, don't get ripped off.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
This week, on a special date line Carneie Confessional, anonymous
employees reveal secrets this state fair doesn't want you to know.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Hick Kenny, Robert Dock. You want none? Are the winners shocking?
Speaker 4 (07:59):
The hoop is than the basketball? Who knew the darts
ain't sharp enough to pop the balloon?
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Wtf?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
The bearded lady, Yeah, that's just a fat guy named Bubba.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
It's all a lie.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
The goldfish, your kid one will be dead in an hour.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
YEP, might as well name it float Kid.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
I'm wanted in thirteen states for dealing mess.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Well that one not hard to believe.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Carnie Confessional this week on Dateline.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Now with Les Floride. It's the Walton and Johnson Show.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
You have done it Now to talk tell Kenny I
got a bone to pick with him. It's not that
big a bone I think she's talking about, or he
whoever wrote this doesn't say big bone to pick with
you about your story over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
And here's a couple more. Actually, it's the.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
You need to know that the casino that you spoke of,
uh huh is in uh Margeritaville is in Biloxi, not
Gulf Port. Don't get Gulf Portians mixed up with them
folks over there with the Biloxians. So there's kind of
a shreport bosure thing going on in Gulfport Biloxi.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
I didn't know the people in golf Port and Biloxi
hated each other like the people in Shreeport in Bojer
or Gaza in Israel.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Well, you've done it. Oh you you fired him up now.
I don't even know if an apology is enough. You
might have to maybe buy offered to buy these people
breakfast like you did for your buddy at the casino.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Well, you're in luck. I'm not kind of apologized. No,
I wouldn't think so.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
No, but I but I get there point upset. I
wasn't driving, though, if it makes you feel any better.
In fact, in fact, nobody was. We were in one
of those self driving cars. No, you did that too.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
I mean I didn't. It's not my car. I was
just in it.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Oh but I mean it wasn't like you just hired
it for a taxi because they have those two self
driving taxis you know that will come pick you up.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I don't want that. See.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
That's the other thing that drives me nuts. Jesse loves
his Testla, like has it lives itself? He just got
it and I was like, oh that's cool. So, uh,
when it's driving around, what do you you know? What
do you do with your hands? He's like, that's the thing.
I can't do anything with them because if I do,
an alarm will go off.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Am like an alarm? Why? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I thought the alarm goes off if you get too
close to something in traffic.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
No, as it's self driving itself.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
If you pick up your phone and start playing with
your phone, it knows what you're doing, and the car
I'll go bab and you have to put your phone down.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
There's the point of it driving for you if you
still have to be there to drive it.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Thank you, And yet you might as well drive. It'll
give you something to do.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
When when people buy a Tesla or or whatever new
kind of fangled gadget they get, and you ask them how,
you know how they love it and they say.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Oh, my god, I love it. It's the best thing ever.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Do you think they're really just saying that to keep
from admitting that they shouldn't have done it.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
It's not the worst thing ever, But is it the best?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
All the things you would think we're annoying about it,
we're just as annoying. You've got to charge the car
forty five minutes or whatever. By the way, someone emailed
and asked a question about the casino story I told
about Jesse. Is this why Jesse sells his shirt for
five hundred dollars at the end of the comedy show
so he can run to the.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Casino floor, asks Mike.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
No.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Jesse sells a shirt for five hundred bucks at his
comedy shows to raise money for wheelchairs for Warriors.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
It's the shirt he was wearing while on stage, right,
it's got his DNA all over it.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
But he does play poker and but yeah, no, that's true.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
If you you know, if you go to the show,
and that's how we pay for Operation Comedy Therapy.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
All the all the.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Comedians performed for free usually, but we still need money
for a sound system and promotion and that sort of thing.
So the way that we fund it is Jesse sells
those shirts. Now it is possible you can walk and
chew gum at the same time. He's a pretty successful comedian.
The t shirts he sells are a small part of
what he does. You're exactly, yeah, that the money. Baytown
(12:02):
Police have a situation. The reason I figured this out,
I was looking to figure out where that dude was
in the women's restroom. But if you search man in
women's restroom in Houston, you get so many stories, so
so many different occasions, you can't tell which one was
the one we were looking for. We got a dude
(12:23):
in Austin in the ladies' restroom at the Capitol Building,
you know, because obviously they're trying to make a political
point out of it.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
This one that one everywhere. Dude in the ladies' restroom.
Guys in the ladies' restroom. Sometimes they're just standing around.
Sometimes they're doing worse. And then the Baytown Police Department
got a story in there. They was looking for this, Well,
they found a fugitive of the law. Baytown Police said
they at a traffic stop. They ran the guy's ID
(12:53):
found out that he was wanted in Chambers County for
aggravated assault with.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
A deadly weapon.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Police take that kind of stuff seriously, apparently so. During
the stop, police said, the wanted suspect and a second
individual both refused to comply with the officer's commands.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Uh, you should always comply.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
At that point, the officers uh used pepper balls U
and they released a dog to try to bring these
two gentlemen into custody.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Well maybe the pepper balls where so the dog could
have a little flavoring the purp.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
One of the individuals was taken into custody, you know,
after the dog got after him a little bit, sure,
please say the other man, the wanted fugitive that they
were really interested in, crawled into the trunk of the
car and pulled it closed.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
When the officers were finally able to open the trunk.
The officer said that the man inside that they were
you know, looking to arrest, was unconscious and in medical distress.
Aid was given. He was taken to the hospital, where
they pronounced him D E A D dead on arrival. No,
(14:06):
no firearms were discharged during the incident. They want you
to know, I don't know if the pepper balls caused
him to uh, you know, of course it'll mass you
breathing up if you, you know, inhale some of that stuff,
or if the thread of a dog's you know, nashing
on his nads. But when he crawled into that trunk,
he didn't crawl out.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
I've never been peppered with the pepper balls before. That
doesn't sound very good.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
You do have some of that, though, if you wanted
to try it. I've got a burner, yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
And they've got you know, regularly like pepper ball kind of.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Stuff, right.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I have a lot of self defense stuff called munition.
I have the burner and I'm happy to use it.
But uh, I gotta tell you these days, I'm wouldn't
hesitate to use my glock.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Just make sure you know which one you pull when
you pull.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Well, if the person's violently attacking you in a court
a lot, I don't think it really matters, does it Here?
Speaker 1 (14:58):
It might matter if you want to live, You're I
have to prove it. Sometimes.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
The dudes that's hopped up on drugs, you know, they
can fight through a taser. They'll fight through some pepper balls.
I mean, they might be tearing up and slinging. It's
not everywhere, but they can still be on you.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
I think the burner is great if it's the first
time someone attacks you, but if they keep bothering you,
you got to use the pistol.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Well.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Yeah, and it's also best to keep them at a distance.
They get too close, then yeah that you know Berner
is just gonna piss them off.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I sleep with both of them next to my bed,
and if someone breaks into my house at night when
it's dark, look, it's it's a roulette wheld to figure
out which one I'm picking up and shooting at you.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
I'm just curious. You know, none of my business will
go on your bedroom. But do you keep the clock
and the burner right next to your phone, which is
also your alarm clock. They'll wake you up out of
a sound sleep at four o'clock in the morning and
you're reaching over there slapping at that thing. Do you
know which one you're hitting?
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Oh yeah, I've trained for that. Yeah yeah, yeah, look
you so far.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Just to keep it, just to be safe, I keep
them all a few centimeters apart.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Well that's smart.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah exactly. You know that's firearm safety. That's why we
took that class.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
You gotta be like that gat the in and out
burger man. You gotta be able to make you move.
You notice that dude cave the minute somebody started shooting back. Yeah,
that's how these people are.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
And just to make sure I'm real slick, I got
an iPhone case that's shaped like a gun. That's real smart. Yeah,
thank you. Walking the back as Tom O'Brien looks on
Personal File sixty nine offense, who's giving them the business?
This is the Waltman Johnson Show.
