I think it's one of 3 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 1: those stories where she probably doesn't realize that she has 4 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,759 Speaker 1: a fan club out there.

She has turned herself in. 8 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: I did wrong. She was on the lamb when we 9 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: were doing the story yesterday. She has turned herself in 10 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: and she has been charged with felony abuse of a corpse, 11 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: which I guess it'll be interesting to see what her 12 00:00:54,880 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: punishment is because so many folks today. I'll bet you 13 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: she'll be punished more. 14 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 2: For cutting his. 15 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: Willie off after he's dead than he was for the 16 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: sex crime that made him a sexual offender. There's something 17 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: wrong with that. There's something real wrong with that. Another 18 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: interesting tidbit from the case. The dead man's new spouse, 19 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: so he had been recently married, and his daughter from 20 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: a previous marriage.

He was also required to register 34 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: as a sex offender. They discussed splitting Rodriguez's remains between 35 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: the new spouse and his daughter from a previous marriage, 36 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: according to records, and the family member mentioned that he 37 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: was a registered sex offender. Soon after that phone call, 38 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,839 Speaker 1: an employee said they witnessed Laudermilk cut off Rodriguez's penis 39 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: halfway and stuff it in his mouth. Why don't you 40 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: just cut half of it into court? 41 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 2: Records. 42 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: Just before Rodriguez was put into crematory equipment. Another employee 43 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 1: said they noticed the penis in Rodriguez's mouth and Loudermilk 44 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: quickly covered the groin area with a towel, claiming he 45 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 1: had quote a lot going on with him. I guess 46 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: that's one way to say it, now, Yeah, I mean, 47 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: I guess she went off half. Better not say that one. 48 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 2: Here was the story from yesterday. 49 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 3: The allegations here are rare and disturbing. This embalmer is 50 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 3: accused of stabbing this dead man twice in the groin area, 51 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 3: then cutting off part of his private part and putting 52 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 3: it in his mouth. Investigators say it all happened after 53 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 3: she learned about his past at Memorial mortuary on the 54 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 3: Southwest Side. It's a situation that no family would ever 55 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 3: want to hear about their loved one. 56 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 4: This was a vicious, brutal attack of a corpse. The 57 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 4: person's already dead. It's kind of shocking even to me. 58 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 3: Licensed embalmer Amber Laughtermilk is accused of using a scalpel 59 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 3: to twice stab a man in the groin after he 60 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 3: died of pneumonia last month.

But 64 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 4: this person, clearly, our suspect, clearly just went off the edge. 65 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 3: Harris County Precinct one Constable Deputies investigated. They say employees 66 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 3: were too scared to report her, who, according to records, 67 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 3: cover the dead man up with a towel when a 68 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 3: colleague noticed the disfigurement. While a motive isn't clear, records 69 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 3: show mortuary staff had just learned the victim was a 70 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 3: registered sex offender. How important are ethics in this line 71 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 3: of work? 72 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 2: Ethics is everything in this line of work. 73 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 3: Jason Altieri runs Southeast Texas crematory, not connected to this case, 74 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 3: admitting this could have been hard to predict. He says 75 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 3: families should be aware of where loved ones will be cremated, 76 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 3: feel comfortable to ask questions, and be able to visit 77 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 3: and see it in person. 78 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: Whether we have a particular judgment one way or the other, 79 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,239 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter.

That's the plan people like lind 134 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: to keep us in business. That's how we get to 135 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: do what we do because of you, because you support 136 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: our show sponsors, which, by the way, we have a 137 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: show sponsor called Lamont Brands. It's two twins there military veterans. 138 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: I guess two twins is twins. I guess is the 139 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 1: proper term there. But two twins is still you get 140 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: the point. They moved their shop to Galveston County last year. 141 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: But they do branding of all anything you put your 142 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: company logo on, whether it's your guys out on the 143 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: oil rig, they do a lot of those. Or you're 144 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: getting ready for a convention and you need all of 145 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: the branding of the materials you're going to put up 146 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: around your station. 147 00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: They do all that. 148 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: Great guys, But I am a big fan of putting 149 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: your brand wherever you can, because that's how you grow 150 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: your business. That's what Donald Trump did. Donald Trump built 151 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: a brand of his name to the point that his 152 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 1: brand was worth more than the assets themselves. And that 153 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: is a rare, rare thing. Indeed, he built a brand, 154 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: he protected that brand, he promoted that brand. He didn't 155 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: own buildings that lacked that lacked his name and you 156 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: would later find out that that was a Trump building. 157 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:52,959 Speaker 1: He promoted his brand aggressively and in the process. 158 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 2: Built his brand. 159 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: And I think that I think you're crazy not to 160 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: do that because every person you interact with your vehicle 161 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 1: out on the road. You know, Matt Brice at Federal 162 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: American Grill and Russell Lebarro and a few other Cat's 163 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: Coffee was big in this. Actually, Abby Cats. This was 164 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: a big one for him that we needed to We 165 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: needed two trucks two vans for Camp Hope because the 166 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: guys are constantly going to medical appointments and we needed 167 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: two vans to transport them.

That area 314 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: has ex exploded as people have kind of moved out 315 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: of Orange and and moved out there for for a 316 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: number of different reasons. But that area is out of control. 317 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's amazing. 318 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 6: It won't be long Doweyville, that's all. 319 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 2: That's exactly right. 320 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: One of my dear friends in high school, Chad Prowse, 321 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: his brother Brandon Prowse, is the athletic director there at Deuiyville. 322 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: So for folks that don't know about this hog band, 323 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: first of all, why do you do this? 324 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 6: Well, Uh, I've always had working dogs growing up. I 325 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 6: was born with a yard for of cow dogs. We 326 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 6: were ranchers and stuff. And then, uh, the popularity of 327 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 6: hog hunting became Uh, I guess it reached us and 328 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 6: we realized that these versatile dogs could do both and uh, 329 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 6: you know, if you're not familiar with hunting a wild hog, 330 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 6: you send some track dogs out and they actually tracked 331 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 6: the hog down. And back in those days, we didn't 332 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 6: have these GPS collars and things that we have the 333 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 6: technology we have now. So the dogs had to bark. 334 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 6: So the bay dogs they go bark at it to 335 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 6: indicate the location of the game. And then you went 336 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 6: in to harvest it however you may seem or if 337 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 6: it was one you didn't want to harvest, you just 338 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 6: called your dog out and went down the trail and 339 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 6: found another one, and so you got now, I guess, 340 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 6: go ahead. Well, it's kind of a it's kind of 341 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 6: parlayed essentially. It's kind of like rodeo. Like, for instance, 342 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 6: all these guys that compete in different rodeo events, they 343 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 6: normally had some type of cowboy background. Well, these competitions 344 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 6: you had some type of hunting background or whatever. And 345 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 6: now you go to compete on the biggest stages for 346 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 6: the biggest prizes and things like that. And most of 347 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 6: the time the dogs don't do both. Like you don't 348 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 6: go pincows on your roping horse. These dogs are just 349 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 6: specialized in these time petitions. And to you know, for 350 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 6: more longevity and things like that. They just compete in 351 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 6: the field trials, although occasionally some people do turn them 352 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,199 Speaker 6: out in a wild and try to catch some wild hogs. 353 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: And so you will have your event beginning next week, 354 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: and that'll be in Coots. 355 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 6: No, sir, it'll be in Winfield, Louisiana the event, yes, sir, 356 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 6: it's still in Louisiana. And what it was. I had 357 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 6: my shows in Coots and when I got the contract 358 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 6: to do this in Louisiana, I had two herds of 359 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 6: hogs because you can't take wild hogs across the state 360 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 6: lines and anyway, I kind of consolidated my herd up 361 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 6: in North Louisiana to cut the overhead because it just 362 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 6: wasn't working out having two sets of hogs, and especially 363 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 6: when just one of them is in Louisiana. So I 364 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 6: moved everything over there. Got to help me with that 365 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 6: up in Downsville. Most of the shows at his place, 366 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 6: but this one, the super Bowl, is in Winfield. And 367 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 6: the name Uncle Earl's comes from some of the most 368 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 6: influential politicians from Louisiana, the Long family, Huey Long, Earl Long. 369 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 2: Who's familiar with that yep, all right, Well, this is. 370 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:21,159 Speaker 6: A commemoration of for for instance, like like Winfield is 371 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 6: a small town, they're always trying to do touristy stuff 372 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 6: to get people to come to town. And for Hughey's one 373 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 6: hundredth birthday, every month that year they did some type 374 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 6: of activity that Hughey liked and you know, to bring 375 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 6: some type of event in town whatnot. Well it worked 376 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 6: so well. A couple of years later, to commemorate Earl 377 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 6: Long's one hundredth birthday, they were going to do the 378 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 6: same thing. Well, some old friends and caretakers of his 379 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 6: knew his favorite his you know, his best pastime, his 380 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 6: most passionate sport was the sport of hal hunting with 381 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 6: hands dogs, and so they decided to have haldolf field 382 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 6: trial in Winfield. It was a one day on a Saturday, 383 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 6: just like the rest of these events to commemorate the birthday. 384 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 6: And this sucker ran for like seventy two straight hours. 385 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 6: So many people showed up. 386 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: Woll hold on, there hadn't been to ask you if 387 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: y'all ever come across Aisle Hall, want you there or 388 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: know if they have those a new events. 389 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 2: The hold just pan. 390 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 5: Michael Berry show continues game in all Mile. 391 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: One of the Memorial villages was just named the wealthiest 392 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: town in Texas, and that village would be Hunter's Creek Village. 393 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 1: According to an analysis from Stacker, a digital content distribution firm, 394 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 1: the median household income in Hunter's Creek Village is in 395 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 1: excess of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year. 396 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: The analysis found that's the median and seventy five percent 397 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: of households in the small city of about forty four 398 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: one hundred people earn at least two hundred thousand a year. Meanwhile, 399 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: just one point six percent of families in the community 400 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: fall below the poverty line. Those factors set Hunter's Creek 401 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: Village in the Memorial area apart in this analysis, even 402 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: compared to other towns considered among the wealthiest in Texas, 403 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: such as West University Place, also in Harris County, or 404 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: Highland Park in the Dallas area. Sacra's analysis relied on 405 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: data from the Census Bureau and considered communities with populations 406 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 1: of at least one thousand people. Census data does not 407 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: show median earnings above two hundred and fifty thousand dollars 408 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,719 Speaker 1: Stacker pointed out that while the nation's wealthiest towns generally 409 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: offer nice amenities, these may vary state by state. Ninety 410 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: let's see analysis that rank cities by their number of 411 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: millionaires or billionaires generally conclude that major cities are the 412 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: wealthiest in any given state. There are ninety nine hundred, 413 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: So we'll say ninety one thousand millionaires living in Houston, 414 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: for example, according to a report from Henley and Partners, 415 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: ninety one thousand millionaires. Jake Loy Kano, Loycano or Locano. 416 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,479 Speaker 6: Either way depends on where you're from.

I took my boys, and my boys at 434 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: the time were say thirteen and fourteen, and these guys 435 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: had quite There were property owners in the area who 436 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: actually paid them to work their properties to keep the 437 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 1: hogs off because the hogs do so much damage. And 438 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: then they made this their hobby and boy they were 439 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: I mean, they were obsessed about it. And we show 440 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: up and they've got equipment. They've got pins that they 441 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: carry these dogs around in and the dogs get out, 442 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: and they've got the most elaborate setup on these dogs. 443 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: And they did use GPS, I will say that, but. 444 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 6: They it's very tired. We typically all do. 445 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 2: Now you do, okay, that my next question. 446 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: And so they were kind of showing me what they 447 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: were doing, and they send the trackers out and all 448 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden they start barking, and when they do, 449 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: we look on the GPS all right, there's where they are. 450 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 1: And they got one fella, I can't remember his name, 451 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 1: but he was the monster and he waits back and 452 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: it was like a prize fighter.

And it wasn't that 458 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: that big, but I mean in terms of mentally he was. 459 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: And when they let him out, he goes running through 460 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: and there was thin wire on this fence and I 461 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: don't know if he saw it and didn't care or 462 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: didn't see it, but he hit that wire and just 463 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: kept going. 464 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 2: And I mean, you didn't get in the way of 465 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 2: this thing. 466 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 1: But they go and get the hogs and then and 467 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: then my kids got to stab them, and it was 468 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: it was a fascinating process, this whole thing. But it 469 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: was amazing to me how intense these guys were into 470 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: this deal. Well, their dogs were all cut up because 471 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: there was a hog out in that area that they 472 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: had been tracking. They were hoping to get that day 473 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: that they had taken the calling Hogzilla and this hog 474 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: had killed several of their dogs. 475 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 6: It was. 476 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 1: Quite the match for these dogs. But I was fascinated 477 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: by the culture of these guys. And by the way, 478 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: these were all public officials, police chiefs and fire chiefs 479 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,239 Speaker 1: and sheriffs and all this sort of stuff, and just 480 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: it was. It is one of the most fun days 481 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 1: I ever had with my boys ever out in nature 482 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: and with these guys and the culture of these guys. 483 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 2: It's pretty cool. 484 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 6: You'd be surprised how many people actually do this. Like 485 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 6: even folks that live in town. They may have a 486 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 6: couple of dogs and you know, in their backyard, and 487 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 6: that's what they do with them. They get a boat 488 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 6: and they go to the lake, go to the river, 489 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 6: and they're all hunting. You know, you don't have to 490 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 6: own a lot of property or being avid marksmen. The 491 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 6: hog it's I always tell people, like you were saying, 492 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 6: it was fascinating your first time to see that like that. 493 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 6: That's the reaction every time. I always tell people that 494 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:10,719 Speaker 6: this is the best feeling you can have with your 495 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 6: clothes off, both hunting, any type of archery, rifle, whatever. 496 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 6: This is the most fun type of hunting I've ever done.

I don't go fishing, 498 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 6: I don't deer hunt. 499 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 2: I run my dogs and you run them there an Orange. 500 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 6: I run them all over Texas and Louisiana.
