You're listening to the Downbeats ninety seven one. The freak. As Danny told
you, I thirty west into Dallas closed off right now. A pedestrian was
hit. So, uh, not a great way to start your traffic week.
If you're headed into Dallas, are you're walking week? Are your walking
week? Or is it a good lesson learned early in the week so we
don't make that same mistake again. Yeah, if you're taking the pledge,
if you're already in kind of Dallas, then it's probably not gonna affect you.
But if you're coming in from Mesquite, it's blocked and shut off at
Saint Francis. If that's been alleviated, give us a call and let us
know two or four seven, eight, seven, one, nine seventy one.
Because when I got up this morning and left to work, left we're
work at about four fifty five, it was completely shut off at Saint Francis.
It's gonna be that way for a good portion of the morning. Yeah.
Other stuff for you in terms of news, weather, traffic, sports,
everything you need to know all throughout the day, including at seven o'clock.
Why did this guy get to go into Mazzie Smith's storage container and take
all of his stuff and what was in there. I had the audio seven
o'clock. But now let's do this. Crap happened over the weekend. We're
good talk about now on weekend? Crap. Weekend is over. And I
know that because I just went and got some coffee in the hallway and I
had three different interactions all right, all of them muttered to me. One
was it's Monday, okay. Bo. One was the weekend was too short?
Anna, one was another week pooh bo on the way back. That's
right, that's correct. So it's Monday, and that means weekend's done.
But some crap happened over the weekend, guys. And did you get to
hang up for Danny? It was awesome get to hang out with the homies
this weekend. Hell yeah, two times. I didn't know that was gonna
happen. How does that happen on weekend that we hang out? Not much?
Too often to hang out with a bunch of listeners Friday and Saturday night.
Friday night at the Kestler the Silver Skylark single release party for Power Moves,
Power Moves, I have Power Moves Voice today. Have you noticed that
my voice is kind of a little deeper than normal Bacon Moves. Maybe it's
because of all the weekend crap. Yeah, yeah, so it was a
twofer. It was all for Danny and Skin's new record label, I Don't
You don't want to say it wrong. No, it's an album that's coming
out in May, and we dropped the first seven inch forty five this weekend
and it was available for the first time streaming and online at all of your
favorite final distributors across the world. It's called Power Moves. Listen to it
somewhere today. You find it Power Moves Skyline. I listen to it on
the iHeart app. Did you know that? Sure? But the first part
is a cast and I may have misplayed this because I never actually heard Power
Moves get played there. I didn't either know. There was really no there
was no outlet for that to happen. Everyone just kind of no. Look,
some people were coming up to me and asking me, so, what
time do you guys go on? I'm like, there were not playing.
This is a record. These are friends of ours, some of them participated
on the record, and they're performing their own stuff. It was just a
celebration. It was bringing hip Hop to the Kessler, which is something I
may be mistaken. I don't think it's ever happened before, but if it
has, this is one of the small handfuls of times that it has happened.
So there was some really cool hip hop going on at the Kessler.
Our Buddies, brand New Funk that had played a couple of our events,
and some Rollertown stuff. They're amazing. They kind of were the house band.
And then this group from the nineties, a Dallas rapout fit called Shabbaz
three, they kind of reunited. They were missing one of their members because
he passed away last year, but they reunited and they did what a twenty
twenty minute twenty five minute banger set, and then Large Professor came out and
he did a big, long, cool medley of all of his hits on
people that don't know who he is. He's kind of they call him.
He's one of the Golden Age rappers, and he was basically the dude that
was directly responsible for discovering and helping bring legend Nas into the conversation and kind
of helped springboard him into to him becoming one of the iconic rappers of history
and rap just turned fifty last year, so it's kind of all made sense
to bring all those elements together. And there are some elements of hip hop
on our little record, so I don't know. It was just a cool
little throwdown and to get people together. And I was shocked how well attended
that was, considering that it felt like it was only announced like maybe a
week and a half, two weeks ago. There were people were actually seeing
the the social media posts and ride ups and whatnot. But I would say
i'd venture to guess that there were three hundred people there. Yeah, it
was a party, but it was kind of counting when it was at its
fullest and you were counting, you know, kind of doing the poor man's
head count, where you kind of go across the room. Okay, there's
fifteen people on this row, and there's this thing goes about seven rows back,
and then count the people up top and yeah, and then the people
that are in the lobby. You just kind of eyeball it and you can
get a general idea of I would say two fifty to three hundred people that
thing. Lobby was packed, and the venue itself was a great crowd.
Man, it was like just nineties hip hop party, got some dancing in.
I got wasted. You got wasted on Gin? Yeah, it is
well. I took the seven game challenge. Oh did you Yeah? You
make it? Oh no, no, we get swept. He got swept
in four, swept in four. Yeah. He ended his night of Gin
with a walk off home run. Yeah. At one point I was out
in the out in the lobby kind of hanging and uh, my nose started
bleeding, like middle of the conversation. Well that's the whole thing, because
I get I go to the bathroom and you grab as many you know,
napkins as I don't want to be the guy in the small bathroom. That's
just like nosebleed. So I went outside. Okay, gives into some like
the smokers are out there, So I go outside, better time up with.
Someone opens the door up that I'm like quickly right wiping off my nose,
just gushing, and everyone is like, are you doing coke? I
was like I'm not, but I'm totally bleeding. It definitely looks like it.
Everyone who is you been hanging out with Mikey? God? What I
was like, that is not him? Oh? Thank you? Where that
starts not having to get your back. I don't know where that's starts created
this man. You really just sprung a noseblee? Yeah, did he get
on your shirt? Uh? Nought? I fight it off. That's good
management. About once a month, I just get that. Yeah, I
don't know why I love Jim Kevin getting knocked out in four games, being
dragged out of there with his only fans toes, just scraping the ground.
There's two bit large men dragg him out. It was not good, but
I love Wabbly Kevin did the old the old trick though, to ibuprofenop go
to sleep, probably bad for your liver, but you worry about that later.
Liver and kidneys terrible. Yeah, but no hangover Saturday, so I
was Gucci and I now went down because we were doing it again at the
Lady Love Lounge or Adrian case out of the Black Plumas and the Large Professor
who at one point Danny said, the large Professor is not very large,
and the Large Professor or dj A set for about four hours from ten pm
to two am. It kept that sucker open till two when they normally close
it. One. Yeah, yeah, that was that was a scene too.
Man, that was wild packed packed, Like I was getting social anxiety.
I had to leave. Yeah, there was so many people there,
man, I had a smidge of it. So we went and sat outside
and we watched dozens of people hot people too, come up to that door
and get swatted because they didn't either have tickets or they weren't on the list.
Yeah, you had to be on the list or have a have a
ticket, and they give you a black dot on your hand. You shut
your black dots. But I just got out as well. I was still
still got a sliver of it. It's like the spider from Nunes on my
hand. It was so loud in there. I had a ten to fifteen
minute converts I had the Dolphin nikes on. I had a ten to fifteen
minute conversation with someone. I think it was about sneakers, and I didn't
catch a word of it. That's the problem. It's that many people in
that loud and somebody wants to, you know, have a chat, it's
impossible, and you just kind of and I'm tall, so I ended up
half the time having to kind of lean down. And I'm probably old and
losing my hearing anyway, And it's a lot of what was that again?
Huh what you kind of stick your ear close to their mouth and no,
it's really it's really important anyway what we're saying in bars. You know,
nobody remembers any of it, but at the time, it's the most meaningful
conversation that that person is ever going to have or ever has had. Well,
I wasn't that hammered Saturday night, but my voice was gone because of
what you just said, though, because if you are having a conversation,
I think that's why I sound like this incrementally louder. But I think so.
Rocks just thought I was drunk again and I wasn't, but she thought
it was rucause I was like, I gotta pee in Mike's yard. Whoa,
Yeah, I was like, because we had to go back and like,
you know, they wouldn't it go the bathroom. You couldn't go there.
The line was too long, and I was like, I'll just go
over here, over here by Lee Harvey's house and just take a whiz.
Is that what you did? No, she wouldn't let me, and I
said, that is a Texan like American thing right here, Like you can
just pee in your yard if you want. To, well, it's not
your yard though, it's not mine, it's Lee Harvey Oswald. But I
just feel like it wouldn't have matter. Well, I think I would have
just gone in between the area where you wouldn't know. Maybe one foot is
on his land and one foot is on yours, you know, the properties
with your stream nice no one would have known that it was happening. But
she was like, no, you're not doing that. No, And I'm
like, you don't understand. Men have peede on golf courses. Absolutely,
I mean, you know other men. You know, there's a lot of
things on different trucks, you know, in a mountain dew bottle. Yeah,
on the gatorade bottle because some of us in the wide mouth. But
the then so she goes no. So I was like, okay, then
find me the nearest commune store seven eleven. No bathroom, okay, okay,
we're gonna need a q T. Then they're guaranteed to have a bathroom.
And then you're kind of and she pulls into the next seven eleven walk
in bathroom's closed. So two strikeouts there. I'm tying it in a knot
because we're struggling. We're about to pop. I've been needing to go for
a long time. Anyways, before we left came on. We were on
foot back to Mike's house to his car, and I was like, if
you just let me go and so now, because I've raised my voice and
my voice is very hoarse, then she's just assuming that I got hammered for
two nights in a row and she's having to be the responsible one, which
is true, is true. But I was like, just let me whizz
in the guy's yard. It's this could have all ended. And I don't
blame her. I blame you. You're standing out there in Mikey's yard and
you were about to unleash, and she's telling you not to go. The
answer is mind your own business. What's she gonna do? Stop you?
Yeah? Yeah, Sue you make you sleep in the dishwasher covey, Yeah,
go back into the crevice. No, you you handle your business like
an independent man. Yeah. I authorize you forever. You only Kevin at
you too? Think you fine? JJ. If you're in a real pant
youto, you can pee in my yard. I would have done it in
the front yard or by anywhere that you would have ever walked. Yeah,
like there was enough respect given. You know, things have gone south.
You know what. You are authorized twenty four to seven to knock on any
door and window and I will allow you in to use a I had in
college at the outside though our restroom, the restroom lines along at a house
party. Yeah, it happened. I mean I see, like recently leave
the last Electric six show that I went to, Mike, was it trees
walking back to the car parking in deep elem And there was a girl who
had opened her passenger side door and she was I don't yeah that letting it
fly in the middle of the paid parking lot. And it's much harder for
us to pee. I know. Wait what y oh, shut up,
Wait a minute. It's tough. Pan on cement is a tricky one though,
And girl peeing behind an open door in a parking lot, I get
it, it has to happen, but that's on cement seems like a different
level desperate times societal violation. If you see a woman pee outside is desperate
Yeah, no, I guess. Yeah. Women shouldn't be arrested for that,
Well dude should Maybe you should find some especially dudes that look like Kevin.
Yeah, why what's that mean? You just look very You have a
very very arrestable face. You just look like somebody that's probably up to no
good. Shaved my beard in a long time. But the problem is why
I shaved my beard. I immediately look like a lesbian. Let's do this
jj hmm, it's true. M wake up, you li. We'll talk
about as it's time to get your stupid ass out of it. About the
most important thing. And you've done it, y'all, Texas did it.
The most important thing is A Texas woman has seized the top spot on the
Most Important list in America. Her name Elizabeth Francis, Miss Elizabeth Francis.
She's a Houston, Texas resident, and as of today, I think as
of two days ago, she is the oldest living American one hundred and sixteen
years. Oh wow, that's all. Wow, she is on top.
I was going to guess one twelve. Let's quickly make it one fourteen and
two hundred and fourteen days she seized the spot previously held by one hundred and
sixteen year old Edie Cessarelli of California. What do you think happened to eat?
She killed herself? YEP, I am tied. Yeah, she was
tired, and she passed on. And now Texas claims the throne of oldest
living Americans one hundred and fourteen years old. For the lovely Miss Elizabeth Francis,
What a Coconut Vella? What Why? Aunt Gilligan's Island? Okay?
So she was born in nineteen nineteen o nine. Born in Louisiana, she
and five siblings were sent to different homes after her mother passed away. Elizabeth
was sent to Houston, Or She was raised by her aunt. By the
age of twenty, she had witnessed World War One, the Great Depression,
and the adoption of the Nineteenth Amendment, which gave women the right to vote.
She was like my age when the Holocaust was going on, like old
enough to understand it. Yeah, she lived a good life, and then
she would even a quarter the way down. Oh kidding, that's amazing.
Elizabeth has one daughter who's in her nineties, three grandchildren, five great grandchildren,
and four great great grandchilds. I bet all those kids are real cocky
too, because they know they're going to get to live till their one hundred
and twenty. It does run in her family. Her older sister Bertha Johnson
lived to one oh six before she passed away in twenty eleven. That is
winning the geen pool right there. Absolutely, and she looks kind of great.
She's laying in bed. She has a little tiara on it says happy
Birthday. Wood smash. Okay, that would be a wood smash opportunity for
Kevin. I think you're only on I go ahead and knock out my third
one. Okay, do it? Do it to her. Find that story
online name Francis Elizabeth. Is she bedridden? Believe she has bedridden because there
was a video story of her two years ago celebrating her one hundred and twelfth
birthday, and Houstonians did the drive by bit because this is right at the
end of the pandemic drive by Honky Yellow Wave, which is really cute,
and she looked very proud and it's real cute. If Elizabeth's trying to sleep,
I do not love this, but I'm gonna do it. A family
member sees it, they come at you. Just do it. Do it,
Kevin. It'll be the biggest chance you've taken so far. Kevin lost
the day and yeah, he owes us three woods smash retweets you Yeah,
she's wearing a crown and holding her lips too. She's got her hand to
her lips. She is beautiful. That it's beautiful. Kevin just would smash
the one hundred and fourteen year old. I've never been happier. Uh she
is? Where is? She? Currently now fifth on the world list of
oldest living humans again. Elizabeth Francis of Houston, SEZ is the mantle of
oldest living America in one hundred and fourteen years, two hundred and sixteen days.
Obviously, it's just so funny to see it. Okay, you might
get someone yelling at you, that's okay, it's oh my god. In
the tweet, it's just a big picture of her. She looks phenomenal,
beautiful. Oh my god, she looks God, she looks seventy four.
That is amazing. Well, her granddaughter is about seventy four, and she
was the one doing the talking in the video. I saw. I can't
believe you just would smashed. He went smashed. Kate E NS the news
station of Houston. Oh you're an idiot? That or the Dune popcorn box?
Which one? This is more risky? I like this one? No,
like if you had to oh, if you had this, I'm not
gonna talk about this sweet woman in those terms. Coming me neither. I
will just tweet oldest current human one sixteen and three hundred and fifty nine days.
Hey, we got a bit of a race going on here then,
So Maria Brynyas of Spain's one hundred and seventeenth birthday is just six days away?
All right, yeah, March fourth. I don't know if that's six
days, but dang, how old is she goes? She's about to hit
one seventeen. We have a Japanese person, Tomiko that like a man.
Yeah, that's a dude. Tamiko Etuca one hundred and fifteen years old.
Brazilian female is one fifteen as well, closing in on a one sixteen and
Juan vincente Perez of Venezuela are the only two. Are the only four people
older than Elizabeth Francis of Houston. Does it have the details on what she
attributes her longevity to. I believe it her faith in God. I think
that's the one. Look she has more answers than you do. I don't
know, You're like Jesus, you get me. I am not gonna make
it to half of her age, so that real. So yeah, and
there's a picture of her being given a plaque oldest living plaque living. We
do better than plaques, people, No one wants plaques. You know what
she wants. She's one hundred and sixteen. Give her everything she wants.
She wants to be left alone. Probably don't put me in the news oldest
living American ever. We had a one twenty for sure. Yeah. No,
not in America. I'll get the world list up in a sex because
I think there was a Japanese woman I could have swore Willard Scott from the
Today Show held up at can of Smuckers and Geneva was one twenty one or
something. No, the oldest living American was Sarah Noos Canos of Pennsylvania,
who made it to one hundred and nineteen years and ninety seven days. Damn,
the oldest person in the world ever. Do you know that one?
Yes? I do, okay, and this is quite impressive. It's a
frenchwoman, Jeanne Calment, and she made it to one twenty two and one
hundred and sixty four days. That's crazy, but it's pretty well because that's
Sarah Canos who I mentioned is third all time. Kanye Tanaka, a Japanese
woman, also made it to one nineteen and one hundred and seven days,
but jan Jianne Clement was one twenty two, so we have a large gap
there from one nineteen and one hundred and seventy so she beat the second place
by over three years. That's amazing. We need to study that person,
see everything they did, decisions they made throughout their life, and find out
how Who was the Japanese lady? Her name and hell old Kane Caine,
it's spelled with the K. Tanaka. She made it one nineteen one oh
seven. Sarahnaws made it one nineteen ninety seven, so they were real close.
I wonder if she has a great great great granddaughter named Hitomi. Why
don't we all google Hitomi Tanaka right now and click images? What is it
the Pacific Click Videos Prize? Would you call it? I don't remember Pacific
miracle. This is a miracle. Don't look it up, jaj M.
I don't know if she's related Tomy Tanaka, who I do have Google images
up for. But hey, look the story is congratulations to sweet sweet miss
Elizabeth Francis the oldest living American is one of us kicks in what if she
looks insanely young? What if she breaks the all time record? A lady
from Louisiana, that would be amazing. If she does break yil time record,
she should also on that day break the sound barrier. In the New
Era Planet, we discussed, Oh my god, she's got a long way
to go. I'm going to London. Look at me, said the expert
in London. Well so, congratulations, Grants. That's awesome man. Nice
Texas back in the mix. Talk about that your water pool. People were
doubting us. We're back. Yep, Texas is back. We took Texas
back this morning on the downbeat, damn did so. We got a lot
of fun coming at seven thirty, give you old weather update. Why why
