1
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.

2
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 2: So Michael Verie Show is on the air.

3
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: But Chief also checks another box when it comes to

4
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: inclusivity and diversity and this department. She's a proud member

5
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,480
Speaker 1: of the LGBTQ community.

6
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 2: That just kind of opens the door of people that thought, Oh, I.

7
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 3: Didn't even know that that was an opportunity for me.

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 4: Ain't nobody get time for it?

9
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 2: I'm super inspired.

10
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: She took time out of her already busy schedule to

11
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: tell us about her vision for the department's future, one

12
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: that includes a three year strategic plan to increase diversity.

13
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 3: People ask me, well, what number are you looking for us?

14
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 2: I'm looking for a number is never enough.

15
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: Out of thirty three hundred city firefighters, only one hundred

16
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: and fifteen are women. Right now, She's already looking at

17
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: ways to change that. She's quick to point out that

18
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: doing so has a greater purpose attracting the best and

19
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: brightest for the job.

20
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 2: They feel included, they feel valued, and they feel part

21
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 2: of a cohesive team. You might have recall a new

22
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 2: story from last year.

23
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 5: There was some interest in the fire departments and the

24
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 5: firefighters in California, and the interest was that there were

25
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 5: too many white men who.

26
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 2: Were firefighters, and we need to have a program in.

27
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 5: California to make sure we don't have enough white men

28
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 5: as firefighters.

29
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 6: They said, we have no water. I said, do you

30
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 6: have a drought? No, I don't have a drought. I said,

31
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 6: why did you have no water? Because the water isn't

32
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 6: allowed to flow down. It's got a natural flow from

33
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 6: Canada all the way up north, more water than they

34
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 6: could have used.

35
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 7: And in order to.

36
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 6: Protect a tiny little fish, the water up north gets

37
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 6: routed into the Pacific Ocean. Millions and millions of gallons.

38
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 7: Of water gets poured.

39
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 6: I could have water for all of that land, water

40
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 6: for your forests. You know your forests are dry as

41
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 6: a bone. Okay, dangerous that water could be routed.

42
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 7: You know, you could have everything.

43
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 8: What is the situation with water?

44
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 2: Obviously in the pal sage ran out last night in

45
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 2: the hydrants. I turned the firefighter in this block.

46
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 8: They laughed, because there were no water in the hydrant here.

47
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 2: Local folks are going to figure that out.

48
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 5: Do you, oh, citizen's an apology for being absent while

49
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 5: their homes were burning? Do you regret coming the fire

50
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 5: department budgeted by millions of dollars, Madam, there have you

51
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 5: nothing to say today? Eylon Mosque says that you're utterly incompetent.

52
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 5: Are you considering your position, Adam mayor have you absolutely

53
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 5: nothing to say to the citizens today? You're dealing with

54
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 5: this disaster.

55
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: Thank you to Creative director Jim Mudd for that. Firefighters

56
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 2: are one of those things you don't think about and

57
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 2: you shouldn't need to till you need them. Remember, after

58
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 2: nine to eleven people wore fd N y caps across

59
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 2: the country, the New York Fire Department was on the

60
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 2: mind of every American. It's funny, isn't it. There's so

61
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 2: many things in life we don't think about, we don't

62
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 2: talk about until we need them, and then yeah, hope

63
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 2: you have them. Ramon lives in a two story home.

64
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 2: He's got a patio upstairs. Off the back of the patio,

65
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 2: he has a little bag. It's kind of out of place.

66
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 2: It's a clear plastic bag. It's next to the door.

67
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 2: And if you're OCD like I am, you think, oh,

68
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 2: what's that back, then let's do that a way. It's

69
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: a ladder. Should it be needed to open the door

70
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 2: and throw it off the back? It's one of those

71
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: things seems silly till you need it. My dad was

72
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 2: always that guy that had before we knew it was

73
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 2: before we knew the term bug out bag. He had

74
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 2: a bug out back for us. The survivalists do these

75
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 2: sorts of things, you know, when you say to the

76
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 2: guy when you break down, Ah, you don't happen. Of

77
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 2: course I do, because I planned to head for this,

78
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 2: and then there's everybody else that wouldn't think twice, well,

79
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 2: why would I have the ability to change out the tire?

80
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 2: Let me see what they gave me when I bought

81
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 2: the vehicle. Firefighters of that sort of thing, you don't

82
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 2: want to have to think about firefighters. Who cares about

83
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 2: firefighters were only firefighters. They worry about whether they're trained,

84
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 2: how many we have, whether the fire hydrants work. But

85
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 2: at the moment you need them. You assumed that somebody

86
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 2: else did worry and somebody else did take pains. Big difference,

87
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 2: Big difference. Rom On, you got that clip. Ktr h's

88
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 2: Morning News this morning, just before we came on the air,

89
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 2: played a clip talking about the cause of the wildfires

90
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 2: in Los Angeles, and this was with there was going

91
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,239
Speaker 2: to be a fire yesterday.

92
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 3: No matter what some people are like, oh is it

93
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 3: a gender revealed party that sparked? It was that this

94
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 3: was at that was at a homeless encampment. Probably one

95
00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 3: of them was.

96
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: Play that one or done.

97
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 5: There was going to be.

98
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 3: A fire yesterday, no matter what some people are like,

99
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: oh is it a gender revealed party that sparked? It

100
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 3: was that this was at that was at a homeless encampment,

101
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 3: probably one of them.

102
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 2: Do you know what he was when he says that,

103
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 2: people ask him that what he means is among the

104
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 2: stupid things. It could have caused a bunch of people

105
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 2: to die because of this fire. Which one was it? Fellas,

106
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,679
Speaker 2: The ladies won't listen to this, but you can. Nobody

107
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 2: wants your stupid gender reveal. You don't want your stupid

108
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 2: gender reveal. There is a moment for every fellaw when

109
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 2: your testosterone level is low, you put on a little fat,

110
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 2: your girls pregnant, and she's like.

111
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 9: Let's take pictures all day every day. Here you stand

112
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 9: here doing this, here, you take this, look here you

113
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 9: put you do this stupid thing, and you're thinking, well,

114
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 9: we're in love. It's okay. The fellas want mine now,

115
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 9: don't do that we're gonna do a gender reveal. Oh,

116
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 9: my girlfriends think it'll be great. Don't do it, Fellas,

117
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 9: people hate you for that.

118
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 2: Trust me, don't do it. Lit W twenty five package

119
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: and you get it all fiberglass hood with air grabbing

120
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 2: scoops mid the Michael Berry fucking hood pins. Shouldsmobile escape

121
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 2: from the ordinary.

122
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 9: Last time they had a bad on Montitude down the road?

123
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 2: What happened, George?

124
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,079
Speaker 9: Where body walk down.

125
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 2: Enough to fall and burning out of control? Here, God,

126
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 2: don't do the wrong thing, George.

127
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 9: I was down there in about an hour. Oh man,

128
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 9: my mouth, you was ready.

129
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 2: He's unrolling the hose when he ought not. You call

130
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 2: me my nephew, also named Michael Berry, is an Humble

131
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:11,439
Speaker 2: Fire Department firefighter and at his wedding, as with every firefighter,

132
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 2: they play this song. But I can never think of

133
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 2: this song the same. We had a firefighter who died

134
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 2: in the line of duty. I don't know. I think

135
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 2: I was on city council at times seventeen years ago

136
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 2: or so and could have been twenty years And at

137
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: the funeral this song is playing as they're showing photos

138
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 2: of him in the course of his life, and there's

139
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 2: one of him and his buddy at a firefighter conference.

140
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 2: I find out later what the context was, and they

141
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 2: got their leg hiked like a dog peeing on a

142
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 2: fire hydrant, which was real funny at the time. If

143
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 2: you know firefighters, they're guys. Guys, they clown around. I mean,

144
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 2: probably nobody drinks more at a at a at the

145
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 2: night of a wedding. And he had died, and instead

146
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 2: of you know, a sad song, they played this at

147
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 2: the funeral with pictures of him having fun, which made

148
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: it so much more painful to watch. And I have

149
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: never forgotten that image, because when somebody dies, no matter

150
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 2: how sad you are, the most painful memory is what

151
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: a fun guy that guy was. And there was that

152
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 2: song playing and they had such fun with They showed

153
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: pictures of this guy who was clowning around constantly, and

154
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 2: the idea that well, he's just not gonna clown around anymore.

155
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 2: That was so much more emotionally draining to me than

156
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 2: if they'd played an overwrought sad song and just put

157
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,719
Speaker 2: a picture up there with his birth and death date.

158
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,079
Speaker 2: I could have done that. It was how much fun

159
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 2: he was having and now he's not having fun. Anymore.

160
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 2: That was hard process. We lost a firefighter yesterday day

161
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 2: before five thirty am and Sunnyside three firefighters terribly burned.

162
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 2: Our fire chief are new far chief, first time on

163
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 2: the air. Welcome Chief Tom Munios.

164
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 8: Thank you, Mike, thank you. And yeah, that song does

165
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 8: there's been around for a long time, and you're right,

166
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 8: it brings back a lot of memory. And that's just

167
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 8: a brotherhood and sisterhood we have, you know. It's yeah,

168
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 8: it's a great calling, it really is.

169
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 2: You've had a rough couple of days.

170
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 8: Yes, so we have, you know, but as every you know,

171
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 8: I'll tell you Mike, I love this fire department and

172
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 8: and you know we're we have marors, very supportive and

173
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 8: we were all together, you know. Obviously I called him

174
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 8: last night on May Rest in peace. Captain Rio's from

175
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 8: Station one o fours, you know, had an illness and unfortunately,

176
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 8: you know he passed. But again the brotherhood and sisterhood

177
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 8: was there. The Mary and I were out at looking

178
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 8: at those three firefighters that you know, doing their job,

179
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 8: and that's what we do each and every day, wake up,

180
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:22,079
Speaker 8: you know, to put our lives before others. And yesterday,

181
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 8: well a few days ago when we were there. It's

182
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 8: just a reminder of what we do and you know,

183
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 8: the great men and women, men and women we have

184
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 8: in this fire department that just doing a freaking job eaching.

185
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 2: What happened with with those three young.

186
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,679
Speaker 8: Guys right now they're in the hospital, you know, and

187
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 8: like anything else they went in and then you know,

188
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 8: going into burning building is you know, there's always those

189
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 8: those risks every single time. And that's what happened. Is

190
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 8: it called the flashover. And you know, fortunately for the

191
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 8: the training that they have and the crew that we have,

192
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 8: you know, they were able to survive. And you know,

193
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 8: and the I think the amazing thing the support of

194
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 8: the administration we had We started a rehire program, right

195
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 8: firefighters that had left and now wanted to come back,

196
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 8: and that the person firefighter who was able to turn

197
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 8: down the door and I'd say it literally turned down

198
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 8: the door, was a rehire who was able to grab

199
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 8: that door, tear it off, and was able to you know,

200
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 8: do the tactics that were required to save those members.

201
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 8: So yeah, you know, and I say, you know, Mike,

202
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 8: it's definitely God was watching over us that day like

203
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 8: he does every day. But you know, it was just

204
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 8: everything that was done. They'd saved their lives and it

205
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 8: was just that whole, the whole process. But yeah, it's

206
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 8: just a reminder what we do every day.

207
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 2: Houston Fire Department Chief Tim Munos is our guests. Are

208
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 2: the three of them going to make a full recovery

209
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 2: best we can tell.

210
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 8: Yes, sure they are. Yeah, and we do appreciate this,

211
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 8: you know, the City of Houston's residents' prayers for that,

212
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 8: but they aren't going to make a recovery, yes, sir,

213
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 8: thanks for asking that. Mike.

214
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 2: We've got some people outside the City of Houston also praying.

215
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 2: You're okay with that, right?

216
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 8: Oh, absolutely sure.

217
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 2: But yeah, they're not tax paying citizens and they're not

218
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,319
Speaker 2: really in the ETJ, but they are still praying. I

219
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 2: just want to be clear, Yeah, you know, and you're right.

220
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 8: I've gotten calls from New York and Chicago, so my

221
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 8: brothers and sisters out there who are keeping them in

222
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 8: their prayers, which're absolutely.

223
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: Correct that fire. Can you talk a little bit about

224
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 2: the danger My understanding as we got my understanding is

225
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 2: particularly hands extremities were terribly burned. Can you shed a

226
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 2: little more light on that.

227
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, it's like they have their their gloves

228
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 8: and everything, all the protective gear that we have, and

229
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 8: you know, it got Like I said, a flashover is

230
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 8: really an extremely hot fire that it just happens. The

231
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 8: whole chemistry takes place and everything does through erups right.

232
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 8: And then of course in the process of the door

233
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 8: behind them had had shut down, had closed, and it's

234
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 8: one of those old heavy doors. But the guys were

235
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 8: there ready to h to make that entrance. Uh, and

236
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 8: the and the guys behind them that were supporting them

237
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 8: were able to break that door down in But it's

238
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 8: just it's a sign, you know, the chemistry of fire

239
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 8: and everything just erupted. And their gloves obviously everything has

240
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 8: a a a burn factor and you know, but their

241
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 8: hands were burnt and uh, but you know they they're

242
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 8: right now at the hospital making that recovery, going through

243
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 8: the process of healing.

244
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 2: A burn is such a terrible, terrible injury to have.

245
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 2: We're fortunate to have for our children one of the

246
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 2: greatest charitable organizations in the country, which is our Shriners,

247
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 2: that does so much for for burn victim children and

248
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 2: they have the coolest hats of any charity out there.

249
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 2: There's that's not even a discussion. But but our prayers

250
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: for those guys because that is a long and very

251
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 2: very painful, very painful, I'm told Recovery Chief Tom Luno's

252
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 2: I got the message just before you came on the

253
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 2: air that you want to make Ramona and I honorary

254
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 2: captains and put a and put a pumper truck at

255
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 2: our disposal at all times. And I just once you

256
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 2: know I appreciate that.

257
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, and we'll see you at the physical test.

258
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: Mike, Yeah, no worry, PT won't be a problem. Ramon

259
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 2: the difference. Yeah, we got this, don't worry. I did

260
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 2: the one day Citizen's Fire Academy, so I'm already halfway there.

261
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 10: Chief.

262
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 2: Thank you, Michael, Wow, Mali Forina. Who is Puerto Rican Rights? When?

263
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 2: When us sr Czar? February twenty eighteen, we were awakened

264
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 2: at five to eleven a m with an explosion in

265
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 2: our garage that shared a wall with our master bedroom.

266
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: We escaped with our dogs three minutes before the master

267
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 2: ceiling collapsed. Of the one hundred to two San Antonio

268
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 2: Fire Department firefighters at our home that morning, a couple

269
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 2: were put in charge of taking down our irreplaceable family

270
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 2: portraits and baby pictures hanging on the wall to rescue them.

271
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 2: That was a powerful gesture. A'malia, Yeah, yeah, I can imagine.

272
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,719
Speaker 2: The reason I know she's Puerto Rican Ramon is that

273
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,959
Speaker 2: she and her husband came on our last was it

274
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 2: Palm Beach? No, they came on our last Colorado trip,

275
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 2: our listener trip. And her husband, if he walked in

276
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 2: right now, you go, oh, santy Claus is here. He

277
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: does santy Claus, so he stays in Santa Claus here

278
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 2: round for two reasons. First, you can't exactly pace yourself

279
00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 2: on how long it's gonna take to grow you santy

280
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 2: Claus beard. And secondly, people will hire you in March

281
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 2: to be santy Claus, and you're the only one got

282
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 2: the beard. Right. That's think about that. That's take it

283
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 2: where you can get it. But we had our staff

284
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 2: meeting because I bring a whole group at the end

285
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 2: of an evening one day and we all sit outside

286
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 2: on this balcony at night and we do you know

287
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,159
Speaker 2: where you're from? What do you do? How did you

288
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 2: find the show? Blah blah blah blah, you know where

289
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 2: were you born? All that? And this couple, they were

290
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 2: so interesting everybody loved them, and they split their time

291
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 2: between Texas and Puerto Rico. And somebody asked, and I

292
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 2: don't remember who it was. It might have been Uncle Jerry,

293
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 2: could have been Emily. Somebody with a kind of off

294
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 2: color said, you think that's extra sexy for her, that

295
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 2: he's santy Claus. And you know, you've had a couple

296
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 2: of drinks at the end of the night, you're blown

297
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 2: off some steam. And we decided that, you know, that's

298
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 2: kind of a whole different deal. You know, if you're

299
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 2: a firefighter, you're like, yeah, daddy's home my falls of

300
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 2: fires today. You know, if you want me to wear

301
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 2: my uniform, my wheel right, because you don't know, you

302
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 2: don't know. For him, it's like, eh, well, you know

303
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 2: you want to set on my lap and tell santy Claus.

304
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 2: And we laughed and laughed and laughed at the thought

305
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,160
Speaker 2: of that. Anyway, it just made me think of it

306
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 2: for people who've had a fire or a flood, if

307
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 2: you've had everything you own reduced to rubble, it's a

308
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 2: very humbling experience. After Harvey, we had three feet of

309
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 2: water in our house, and the worst part about that

310
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 2: was that we had put everything from my wife's childhood

311
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 2: and my kid's childhood in Africa in these cabinets downstairs,

312
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 2: out of the way. And the idea was they're on

313
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 2: the ground floor, so should there be the need for

314
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 2: us to get out fast, they're right close to the door.

315
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 2: We can grab them and the one thing we want lose,

316
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 2: the furniture, can be replaced. We'll call Mack. But these

317
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 2: things and my wife showed up. And my wife is

318
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 2: not an emotional person. You can know her for forty

319
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 2: years and you won't see her cry. Just does not cry.

320
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 2: She's a very strong part. Now I'll cry at tender mercies,

321
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 2: you know, still Magnolias. My daddy's got die, meaning you

322
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,880
Speaker 2: can't blame me for crying. My daddy's got die. Met

323
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 2: I've lived. My daddy's that diamets. I think you can't.

324
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 2: You gotta understand. But my mother, my wife, mother, and

325
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 2: my children, huh huh. And so she is the strong

326
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 2: one in the family. And she sat there instill a

327
00:20:54,800 --> 00:21:00,119
Speaker 2: foot of water and everything is destroyed. There's there's birth certificates,

328
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 2: there's everything we owned floating in the water. It's gone.

329
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 2: You're not going to replace it's it's so thoroughly damaged.

330
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 2: And my wife is so bummed for our kids. And

331
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 2: she said, you know, we've lost our home. And the

332
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 2: boys said, quoting her, ma, our home is wherever we are.

333
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 2: We can move across the street, and it just she

334
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 2: just oh, she says. She probably almost cried. And that's

335
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 2: a serious moment for my wife. She probably almost cried

336
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 2: at the idea that, Wow, they've listened. It's true. Our

337
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 2: home is where the four of us are. It's not documents,

338
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 2: it's not papers. It can't be put in a in

339
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 2: it can't be put behind a glass and brass, it

340
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 2: can't be hung on the wall. Our home is us.

341
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 2: That's that's who we are. A man free on bond

342
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 2: for murdering an Air Force airman who was on leave

343
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 2: in a drive by shooting. That man free on bond

344
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 2: vanishes days before his trial back in September. This week,

345
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 2: US Marshalls, along with DPS agents, raided an apartment in

346
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,719
Speaker 2: East Houston, endangering their own lives to bring him back.

347
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 2: We already had him, but Judge Democrat Veronica Nelson freed

348
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 2: him on a bond in the first place. I like

349
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 2: Veronica Nelson and her loved ones to have to serve

350
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 2: the warrants to go get these people. I wish evil

351
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 2: that happens to innocent people in this city would happen

352
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 2: to Veronica Nelson every single time she has to sentence

353
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 2: one of these people, so she'd stop putting them back

354
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 2: out on the streets. I wish every one of these Democrats,

355
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:01,479
Speaker 2: George Sorows, his goofy son who looks like Lena Hidalgo's husband.

356
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 2: I wish every one of these Democrats, Rodney Ellis, every

357
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 2: one of them would have awful things happened to them

358
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 2: so they would understand what we're talking about here and

359
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: they would stop this nonsense. The story from ABC thirteen.

360
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,639
Speaker 3: In twenty four and fled. ABC thirteen obtained exclusive video

361

362
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 3: led to Ornells's re arrest along with another person.

363
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 4: Right now, there are two people that are in the

00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 4: Harris County jail. They're being held on connection for the

365
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,520

00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 4: helping one of those men go on the run and

368
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 4: evade police. Go ahead and take a look at your screen.

369
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 4: This is video that was obtained by ABC thirteen and

370
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,800

440
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:15,480

441
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:21,760

00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:26,200

446
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 2: he's with the Humble Fire Department. And she said, how

447
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 2: do you know that? We all know him? And we

448
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 2: listened to his uncle and she said, oh, okay, I

449
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 2: just thought I might have had a chance to meet

450

451
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,800

00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 2: I've got people who email. The rule is you only

463
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 2: come in. There are people who will email at eight

464
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 2: thirty every single day, or you know, eleven oh one

465
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 2: when the show first goes off the morning, off in

466
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 2: the morning. So the morning I got it, I got

467
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 2: a question for you. So I'm not going to say

468
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 2: his name because it's a personal detail and I wouldn't

469
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 2: do that like Claypool. So we're playing pick a ball.

470
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 2: I took an hour and fifteen minutes because we had

471
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 2: a busy schedule as you know, yesterday I didn't even

472
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 2: tell Ramon why I was leaving. I said, I'll be

473
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,040
Speaker 2: back in an hour and a half because it's in

474
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,719
Speaker 2: a minute home. Seven minutes back I showed up, they

475
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 2: were already warmed up. I don't have time to warm up, guys.

476
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 2: We got to play pick away. I get get back

477
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 2: to the studio. Was it two o'clock and it was

478
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 2: freezing cold yesterday, So we're out there and everything I

479
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 2: got shriveled up. But you know, ten minutes in you

480
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 2: move around, you're fine. And so my buddy whose name

481
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 2: I'm not going to mention that clipool, he tells a

482
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: story in the middle of the game.

483
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 10: His son.

484
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 2: Was born, his youngest son and who's at the University

485
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 2: of Texas now his oldest son's at Georgia, and he says,

486
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 2: the son is born and they have the stork. I

487
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 2: guess in the room outside the room where you put

488
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 2: the name on it. We're not a traditional family because

489
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 2: my wife didn't grow up here, and I don't know

490
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 2: any of the traditions because we didn't have them, and

491
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 2: my wife didn't have them because she grew up India,

492
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 2: so I didn't know about this. So apparently there be

493
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 2: a store and you put the baby's name and wait,

494
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 2: and so they put the baby's name, and wait and

495
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 2: everything else, and the baby's name is Blake. And then

496
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 2: they're looking at the baby and his wife, his sweet, beautiful,

497
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 2: wonderful wife, Lorie. I don't know, I can't say her name,

498
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 2: never mind, says he's not a Blake. Well, what do

499
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 2: you mean he's not a blake? Well, you know your

500
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 2: wife's just giving birth. You're not gonna come to You're right,

501
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 2: he's not a blake. What is he exactly? He's Connor.

502
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 2: So they've got family members out in the waiting room.

503
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 2: I cast to get the sorry, my friend has to

504
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 2: get the sharpiet walk out mark through Blake. Blake was

505
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:56,240

Speaker 2: from two months ago. I should be over by now.

508
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 2: And so I thought I got to do one segment

509
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 2: on crazy naming stories. The husbands would be more likely

510
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 2: to call in let me tell what my wife did.

511
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 2: But if I could get some of the women to

512
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 2: call in, there's gonna be some funny stories. Well, he

00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 2: was gonna be Ingram, you know the these names. Now,

514
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,640

517
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 2: a joke, but there's got to be some funny. We

518
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 2: looked at our baby and realized he wasn't a blake.

519
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 2: How do I said? I'm sorry? I said to my friend,
