And I 62 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 2: am reminded by County Commissioner Harris County Commissioner Tom Ramsay 63 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 2: that the Woodville Eagles are going to state for the 64 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: first time in school history. Woodville was in our district 65 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 2: that was a three A school back then they changed 66 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: all the school sizes, so I don't know what size 67 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 2: category they're going for, but it does not matter. They're 68 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: going to state. So that means that we really need 69 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 2: to go to the picket House. I have been advised 70 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 2: that because there's some wealthy Woodvillions, that there is a 71 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 2: runway not far from the picket house, and that if 72 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: you call the picket house and tell them that you're 73 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 2: flying your little plane from Houston or San Antone or 74 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 2: wherever that people fly into Woodville and the picket house 75 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 2: will go pick you up and bring you to eat there. 76 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 2: There was a book years ago, I think it was 77 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 2: called The two hundred Dollars Burger, and the idea was 78 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 2: you'd have a lot of these guys that would get 79 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: a pilot's license and they'd have a little bitty Cessna 80 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 2: or a little piper beach what is it beachcraft that'd 81 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 2: have a little bitty plane and they would take their 82 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 2: wife on a Saturday and they would hop in the 83 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,679 Speaker 2: plane and they'd fly to somewhere, it didn't matter where 84 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 2: they'd fly, like to Woodville. The Brenham Airport always had 85 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,679 Speaker 2: that fantastic diner and I don't know if it's still there. 86 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 2: They struggle to keep that thing afloat because it's just 87 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 2: not enough business. It will never make it unless people 88 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 2: go to eat there who aren't in a plane. But 89 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: the point of the two hundred dollars Burger was that 90 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 2: you would you would spend one hundred and eighty dollars 91 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 2: on fuel to go and have a burger. You'd land 92 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 2: at the airport and it would be other people just 93 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 2: like you who were there having their burger and there 94 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,799 Speaker 2: would be the wives and I had an aunt Sheila 95 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 2: and uncle Glenn. They're still alive, but they were in 96 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 2: a car club and so that was kind of their 97 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: thing they did. It's good if a couple has an 98 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 2: activity they can do together. And he always had a 99 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: like a nineteen thirties. I don't know what exactly the 100 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: car was. I think it was a Ford, but I 101 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 2: could be wrong with the rumbel seat or rumble seat 102 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 2: was it? Is it rumble or rumpel rumble? I think 103 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 2: in the back. And he was always restoring an old car, 104 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 2: and he was in old car clubs and the wives 105 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 2: would go out there and it was a big deal. 106 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: You'd go out there on a Saturday, and they all 107 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,239 Speaker 2: knew each other from all over the state. They were 108 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 2: from Orange, but there was always a car show that 109 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: they were going. So if if Uncle Glenn and Ain't 110 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: Sheila weren't at, you know, something that we were doing, 111 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 2: it would be, oh, well, they're they're at the they're 112 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 2: at the car club. So my wife sent me an 113 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: email this morning of an article she read over the 114 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 2: weekend that Tillman is serving a wagu state at Mastros 115 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 2: for a thousand dollars a state one thousand dollars a plate, 116 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: and it's called an A five Japanese wagu. And the 117 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 2: reason they're able to command one thousand dollars is because, 118 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 2: according to Tillman, you can't get this particular wagu outside 119 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: of Japan. You know, there are there are breeders, ranchers, farmers, 120 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: I guess ranchers in Texas that are raising breeds of 121 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 2: wagu because people love wagu so much, but this particular 122 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: wagu you have to get flown over from Japan, and 123 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 2: they don't let it out lightly. So I don't know 124 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 2: what he's paying for. Speaking of which, if you didn't 125 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 2: hear us say last week, it has not been. 126 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: Made official, but. 127 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 2: Sources tell me that President Trump wants Tillman Furtita for 128 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: his ambassador to Italy, which, as you know, the Fertitas 129 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 2: are of Italian ancestry. What an honor that would be 130 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 2: for him. And we are delighted that Tillman Fertita has 131 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 2: become a sponsor not only of our Houston show, but 132 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 2: of our national show as well, through Premiere for the 133 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 2: Golden Nugget, which you can find at Golden Nugget LC 134 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 2: dot com, which kind of makes sense because if you 135 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 2: want to talk about the people that are going, they're 136 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: driving two hours to Lake Charles to see shows. 137 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: I looked up their shows. They got Angela Johnson in January. 138 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 6: I love her. 139 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: Got Little Riverband. Anyway, it's Golden Nugget LC dot com. 140 00:08:58,880 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 7: What's the name? 141 00:08:59,559 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 2: Ysaye? 142 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 7: Michael Buddy? 143 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: All right, to the phone lines we go. 144 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:16,719 Speaker 2: But first, te Baker says little side story about the 145 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 2: Woodville Eagles coach Ty Robinson. His dad, Wendell Robinson, was 146 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 2: my high school coach at Bremond. I don't know how 147 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 2: to pronounce that, so I'm probably getting it wrong. He 148 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: went to several state championships. He's a Texas high school 149 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 2: football legend and is in the Texas High School Coaches 150 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame. His son bo Robinson played d line 151 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: at Texas and took Yoakum to the state championship a 152 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 2: few years ago. Ty is his youngest son and has 153 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: the Woodville Eagles in the state championship. I thought that 154 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 2: was a pretty cool deal for a great family, and 155 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: Darren writes regarding the Picket House, my wife and I 156 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: sometimes stop and eat at the Picket House on the 157 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 2: way to our cabin that we have on Talita Ben. 158 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 2: It's always good. 159 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: You know. 160 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 2: When I was a kid, we would go to Taleda 161 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 2: Ben dan B and that was kind of a working 162 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 2: man's lake resort.

And sure it sure brings back 334 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 6: some wonderful memories. 335 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I can remember. 336 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 2: Being a little kid in Orange and we'd go to. 337 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 1: Dan Be. 338 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 2: And you know, you'd go in and I think you 339 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: had to pay to get inside the campgrounds, and then 340 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 2: you know, you'd have your you'd. 341 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: Either have your little A lot of folks had a 342 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: little coalman pop up tents. I guess. 343 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 2: I guess some people had places that they rented and 344 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 2: they kept a little fifth wheel or travel camp or 345 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 2: travel trailer or whatever down there. But we didn't have that, 346 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 2: but we would rent they'd have these little spaces where 347 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 2: it was a little wood framed cabin, but it wasn't 348 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 2: completely If you wanted, you could pay I think extra 349 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 2: and get an air conditioned but we would do the 350 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 2: little cabin with the mash to at least keep the 351 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 2: mosquitoes off of you, because this will be during the summer. 352 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 2: And we'd go down for the weekend. And that was, Man, 353 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 2: that was a big deal. 354 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: But I can. 355 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 2: Remember being there and there was a kid named James 356 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 2: Walmack and he was older than me. 357 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: And you know when you're a. 358 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 2: Little kid, the kids that are four or five years 359 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 2: older than you, Man, man, that's big boys. You're excited 360 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 2: to see, you know, somebody older than you. They're that 361 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 2: kind of your heroes. And I remember James Walmack was 362 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 2: riding his bike inside downb and I said, Mama, there's 363 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 2: James Walmack, Like, what are the chances We've come all 364 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 2: the way to New Zealand and there's somebody from Orange. 365 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 2: There can be no chance that that is James it is, 366 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 2: that's James Walmack from Orange. 367 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: How have we come. 368 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 2: All this way to see somebody else from Orange? 369 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: But I didn't know. 370 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 2: The whole place is full of people from Orange. It 371 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 2: felt like you know we had crossed the Atlantic Ocean, 372 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 2: which of course I never had at that point in 373 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 2: my life. So we were so far from home and 374 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 2: seeing somebody that we'd never seen. Who would have known, 375 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 2: Wayne Royal writes Zori, You are absolutely correct on the 376 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 2: one hundred dollars Hamburger. 377 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: It's apparently was. 378 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 2: One hundred dollars Hamburger, not two hundred dollars. But that 379 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 2: I must have added the Joe Biden inflation to it. 380 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 2: But anyway, private pilots are always looking around for a 381 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 2: cool place to fly to and grab lunch. Brenham, as 382 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 2: you mentioned, had a great place, just not enough road traffic. 383 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 2: We have several airports over here in Florida that are 384 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 2: suffering the same fate. One stupid thing is the small 385 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 2: airports here started charging a landing fee, so you pay 386 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 2: that just to go eat at the restaurant that oftentimes 387 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 2: is right there on the ramp. Sometimes they'll waive that 388 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 2: with a restaurant visit or purchase of fuel, sometimes they won't. 389 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 2: The feed deters a lot of pilots from flying there, 390 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 2: so the poor restaurants suffer. Congratulations on the newly added stations, Well, 391 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 2: those little FBOs it's a tough business model. 392 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,120 Speaker 1: You gotta sell. You gotta sell. 393 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 2: Fuel to people that land, and you can't keep that 394 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 2: fuel forever, and they don't have a consistent market for 395 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 2: that fuel. I'll never forget our old friend Ed Hindi. 396 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 2: He was flying back from either Oklahoma or Arkansas. He was, 397 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 2: and they couldn't make it all the way, and he 398 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 2: stopped somewhere in East Texas. I'm gonna say, Lufkin, it 399 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 2: might not be Lufkin. Ed Handy owns Taste of Texas 400 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 2: and used to do the morning show and KSV Dan 401 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 2: Patrick D nine A Henri Hindy wonderful people and Ed 402 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 2: pilots his own plane and they land at this little 403 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 2: FBO and I don't think there. I think this FBO 404 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 2: is just a chain link fence and a fuel tank. 405 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 2: And they fuel up, and somehow the FBO had the 406 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 2: little tiny airport had mislabeled or placed the fuel in 407 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 2: the wrong tank, and so they put the wrong fuel. 408 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 2: They had the wrong fuel for him to put into 409 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 2: his plane. And he gets up. It's enough to get 410 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 2: him up in the air, but that's about it. And 411 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 2: over the freeway he has to land, and so he 412 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 2: puts this thing down on the freeway and it He's 413 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 2: lucky to be alive. And you hear these stories on occasion, 414 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 2: and he will tell you God had a plan for him. 415 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 2: He's living on borrowed. 416 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: Time because. 417 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 2: Most people in a situation like that. 418 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: The number of people who. 419 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 2: Die in little single engine planes, I remember years ago. 420 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: It's been decades ago, and I forget the exact qualification 421 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 2: you had to get to to get there. This is 422 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 2: like the fact that from sixty nine to seventy four, 423 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 2: who's the band Ramon? You always you always make three 424 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 2: Dog Night, three Dog Night had the most number one 425 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 2: hits from sixty nine to seventy four, not seventy to 426 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 2: seventy five, not sixty eight. Well, the number one cause 427 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 2: of death for doctors, say under the age of forty 428 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 2: was piloting single engine planes and crashing it. You've got 429 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 2: cornpop was a bad dude the Michael Berry Show. I'm 430 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 2: not going to say the name of this person because 431 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 2: I'm not authorized too, but she writes, I'm driving right now, 432 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 2: so I can't do the research at this moment, but 433 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 2: I will. My husband, who is a state trooper, told 434 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,199 Speaker 2: me that the same people who own Colony Ridge have 435 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 2: purchased a big swath of acreage up in Woodville, and 436 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 2: they plan to do the same thing. Now that you're 437 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 2: talking about Woodville, it reminded me that I wanted to 438 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 2: find out more information about that. When I get home 439 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 2: and in front of my computer, I'll send you the 440 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 2: information that I have found. Maybe your sleuths will be 441 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 2: faster than me at digging up what's happening. Well, I'm 442 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 2: going to tell you this. You know, it's called Nimby. 443 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 2: Not in my backyard. No community wants a landfill near them. 444 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 2: I think it was Waller County a couple of years ago, 445 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 2: and they hired when Dolchafino to engage in an advocacy 446 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 2: campaign to keep the landfill from being in their neighborhood. 447 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 2: And I don't know how that thing turned out, but 448 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 2: what Dolchafino was able to uncover was at least the allegation. 449 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 2: I don't know if it was ever proven that there 450 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 2: were people on the take. And if that occurs, now 451 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 2: you've got a real cause to prevent this thing coming 452 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 2: into your neighborhood. Well, nobody wants a landfill near him, 453 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 2: nobody wants to prison near him. Nobody wants this stuff 454 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 2: near their neighborhood. It's usually in an area of devalued 455 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 2: land to start with, and it's very difficult to see 456 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 2: any increase in value after that. Nobody wants to be 457 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 2: around that understandable, right, But this Colony Ridge thing, you 458 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 2: know what RA won't see if you can find the story. 459 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 2: Chad sent the story last week. Just look up Colony 460 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 2: Ridge in our audio files. It was on page one 461 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 2: of his prep of maybe last Wednesday. There was a 462 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 2: guy who was arrested at Colony Ridge and he's charged. 463 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 2: When you see the charge, you don't quite understand what 464 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 2: it is. He's charged with a mass casualty. Now what 465 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 2: that means is killing multiple people. And the charge goes 466 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 2: to he is alleged to be a coyote who brings 467 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 2: people from the south of Mexico into the United States. 468 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 2: That's not what he's charged with. He's charged with killing 469 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 2: them if their families can't pay the next leg of 470 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 2: the journey. So what they do is they got thirty 471 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 2: forty fifty of these people and they say, Martinez, your 472 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 2: family hadn't paid us for this leg of the journey. 473 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 2: We don't get our money by Western Union tomorrow, we're 474 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:30,640 Speaker 2: killing you and they do. And so when that happens, 475 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,959 Speaker 2: Lopez and Rodriguez get on the phone with the family 476 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 2: back in Guatemala and this guy's Guatemala and go, hey, hey, 477 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 2: these people don't play. Get the money, sell a kidney, 478 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 2: whatever you got to do, send the money to these people, 479 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 2: because they're killing people. That's what's happening here. So did 480 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 2: you not find it? Did you look up Guatemala? Did 481 00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 2: you ask, Chad, what are you doing? Why is rubbing 482 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 2: your bald head when. 483 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: You're trying to find something on a computer? 484 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 6: Help? 485 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: Like a magic eight ball? 486 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 2: Anyway, So let me ask you this, Of all the 487 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 2: places this bastard could be, why you think he felt 488 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 2: comfortable in Colony Ridge? Or more to the question, why 489 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 2: do you think he owned four different properties in Colony Ridge? 490 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 2: Wonder how many other people in Colony Ridge multiple property owners? 491 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 2: Do you think he's living in all four of those 492 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 2: Let's dig down what do you suspect is happening?
