Speaker 3: Here are the important stories he's currently tracking from around
Speaker 3: the world.
Speaker 2: You guys, ever gone hogging? Yeah, dude, I mean when
Speaker 2: you're in a slump, a shooting slump. Yep.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a very popular thing. We've talked about over
Speaker 3: the years. Now it's seen as like a trip or
Speaker 3: like a vacation type thing. You pay money, go up
Speaker 3: in a helicopter and shoot feral.
Speaker 2: Hogs that you can risk injury though. Yeah, oh absolutely
Speaker 2: can pull something. You can risk injury with both ways
Speaker 2: of hogging. You could get him paled.
Speaker 3: But in those situations you're out in the country. Usually
Speaker 3: you're not within city limits.
Speaker 1: When you're hogging, just because bigger girls living on the
Speaker 1: outskirts killing feral hogs. Ben, what were you talking about?
Speaker 2: Smashing Smashing country Hogs.
Speaker 1: That was the name of my first album, Smashing Country Hogs.
Speaker 1: But Big Ben Rogers brought to you by Jimmy Dean's.
Speaker 1: I did have a sausage sponsor, sponsored by Jimmy Dean,
Speaker 1: and he had his own called Jimmy Dome. I mean,
Speaker 1: probably a bad sign. I just sold too much. It
Speaker 1: was my album cover had a sponsor. People like, I
Speaker 1: don't want to listen to this. When Ben was Ben
Speaker 1: was a sophomore, he walked in one day and said, Man,
Speaker 1: them big old country girls is easy. I don't think
Speaker 1: he did know it was because it was harder chasing
Speaker 1: the city girls. It's a lot of hard work, Yeah,
Speaker 1: because they were.
Speaker 2: All you had to do was talk real nass. I'm
Speaker 2: Ben Rogers.
Speaker 1: In that big old gal.
Speaker 2: The city girls get away.
Speaker 1: The city girls are in better shape because they were
Speaker 1: running from Ben and those big ass gals was just
Speaker 1: sitting there. You got me trapped, and I like it.
Speaker 1: Trap me big man, I can't spell none. Is that
Speaker 1: a city Honda? How did you get all the way
Speaker 1: out here? City on the power got to be I
Speaker 1: don't got to be home till sun up.
Speaker 2: You're my first boyfriend, it ain't my brother. What is
Speaker 2: the story, Well, the story takes us to Irving. So Irving.
Speaker 3: There's a couple neighborhoods Irving, and one of those is
Speaker 3: near Valley Ranch. Have y'all seen have you been in
Speaker 3: that area in the last five years? Even where Valley
Speaker 3: Ranch is.
Speaker 1: I keep going out there looking for cowboys practice and
Speaker 1: get lost.
Speaker 2: Well, you won't find it.
Speaker 3: What you'll find is a lot of open land and
Speaker 3: a lot of construction that's kind of been done in
Speaker 3: that area too. And they've been building up some houses
Speaker 3: and things like that there. It won't be long you
Speaker 3: Valley Ranch won't even You wouldn't even know it was there.
Speaker 3: But now you could still kind of see the remnants
Speaker 3: of that old Valley Ranch neighborhood.
Speaker 2: None of what he's saying is making sense.
Speaker 1: He's like, they're building it up, building a bunch of houses,
Speaker 1: but it's about to be gone. He said, it's open
Speaker 1: land as far as I can see that they're building
Speaker 1: up the building Upah, what are you talking about. I'm
Speaker 1: saying that if you drove through there, you'd go Okay,
Speaker 1: this all looks familiar, and I think in two or
Speaker 1: three years, I think you'll go.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't even know that that's where the cowboys used
Speaker 2: to be.
Speaker 1: Guide me on a guide me on a jersey, talking
Speaker 1: about you just cruising down MacArthur, go.
Speaker 2: Down in that little neighborhood. Yeah, and you go over
Speaker 2: there and there's land. Remember, you can just drive right
Speaker 2: into the cowboys.
Speaker 1: That lady just waved to you and just drove in
Speaker 1: park walked right into the locker room.
Speaker 2: Sometimes I've parked in the locker.
Speaker 3: Room right at Jerry's office telling who you want to
Speaker 3: hires the next head coach.
Speaker 2: What are you saying? Are you saying that it's the animals?
Speaker 2: Land and coyotes and stuff are taken over in hogs. Well,
Speaker 2: so you have a.
Speaker 3: Bunch of you know, neighborhoods over there that have always
Speaker 3: been there as well. So you combine that with a
Speaker 3: little bit of construction, a little bit of building up,
Speaker 3: and you have introduced yourself into a threat for wildlife
Speaker 3: to be there. So what we have here in this
Speaker 3: part of town is a neighborhood where there's some feral
Speaker 3: hogs that have been going in overnight because they won't
Speaker 3: do it during the day overnight and have been tearing
Speaker 3: up people's yards. And this is a story about a
Speaker 3: week ago. I think I first saw this on the seventeenth.
Speaker 3: I take us till late last week, like toilet papering
Speaker 3: trees and stuff. No, just you know, digging up the
Speaker 3: digging up the yard, eat the plants, whatever you got.
Speaker 2: You have some shrubbery things like that.
Speaker 3: Well, Channel eight has got a very good investigative report
Speaker 3: that I want to play for you guys.
Speaker 2: It's about a minute long. Rebecca Lopez.
Speaker 3: Uh, no, some guy by the name of let's see here.
Speaker 3: It's a Matt Howardton. Oh, I love Matt. And uh
Speaker 3: there's a there's a guy a gal who have got
Speaker 3: a plan here.
Speaker 2: Okay, listen to how weirdly edited this clip.
Speaker 4: Is some neighbors don't even know each other. I think
Speaker 4: has taken already.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Others build a crude electric fence to keep feral
Speaker 4: hogs from destroying their lawns.
Speaker 3: Okay, a crude electric fence has been built, Okay in
Speaker 3: this in their yard that's allowed.
Speaker 2: Yes, what if a toddler runs into it? Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: We'll get to that sort of I have a question
Speaker 1: since I'm not watching the story, so I might be confused. Shoot,
Speaker 1: so what was the part about a couple of neighbors
Speaker 1: don't know each other? What did that happen to do
Speaker 1: with what's happened?
Speaker 2: I'm confused by two? Okay? Was it the same neighbors
Speaker 2: that built the crude electric fence? Yes?
Speaker 1: Okay, so they didn't know each other until they came
Speaker 1: together to build a crude electric fence?
Speaker 2: Is that what Matt Howardton's telling me? I think so?
Speaker 4: All right, this is the Baconator trademark pending. We keep
Speaker 4: asking where Elmer fun is.
Speaker 1: We could really use them as a neighbor.
Speaker 3: Right now, okay, we're twenty second it's into the story,
Speaker 3: and it's very unclear about what's happening.
Speaker 2: We know that there's an electric fence, but there's just
Speaker 2: a little too much banter in joking around going on.
Speaker 2: Did anybody explain the Elmer Fudd part?
Speaker 3: We finally get to it, well, not the Elmer Fud part,
Speaker 3: but the fence.
Speaker 4: Right now, this is Tom Coron.
Speaker 5: We gotta do something.
Speaker 3: And Kathy okay, it's Tom Coron and then you hear
Speaker 3: a clip of Kathy I have so many problems with
Speaker 3: this clip.
Speaker 2: Are you putting the reporter on Troe? I am okay?
Speaker 2: Or if he had an editor. Here's the thing I've learned.
Speaker 1: I learned this back in the day when I used
Speaker 1: to criticize Becky Oliver oh Man. Man, she will suddenly
Speaker 1: set her scope on you, and she'll do twenty stories
Speaker 1: about all of the criminal things you're doing.
Speaker 2: This guy still hasn't taken down his fence.
Speaker 1: Howardton's gonna be in your backyard with a crude electric fence?
Speaker 2: I got he's gonna be pissed. But this part, why
Speaker 2: don't you put up a crude electric fence?
Speaker 3: It's like saying you're talking about me and he interviewed me,
Speaker 3: but he plays a clip of cr Stina's voice.
Speaker 1: Though, Yes, we could really use him as a neighbor
Speaker 1: right now.
Speaker 4: This is Tom Coron, we Gotta do something, and Kathy Martin,
Speaker 4: and mean it's Kathy talking.
Speaker 2: It's Kathy Martin talking.
Speaker 1: We could really use him as a neighbor right now.
Speaker 4: This is Tom Coron, we Gotta do something and Kathy Martin.
Speaker 4: And since December they have slowly watched a posse of
Speaker 4: roughly twenty feral swine root and dig up the yards
Speaker 4: on their street in Irving, and they are the last
Speaker 4: yards standing.
Speaker 5: They haven't touched it.
Speaker 4: Wildlife officials set up a trap at a nearby park
Speaker 4: earlier this week with a camera, but so far no pigs.
Speaker 4: When you're on the grass and you touch the wire,
Speaker 4: you've completed the circuit.
Speaker 5: So Tom hoping to hear a loud squeal.
Speaker 4: And Kathy built.
Speaker 3: Okay, Tom, and then another clip of Kathy. But the
Speaker 3: point is they've got a fence that's very small. Okay,
Speaker 3: but it would stop a pigs running up to it.
Speaker 3: It would shock him, like, I can see how this would.
Speaker 2: Work and then turn into bacon in the front yard. Yeah.
Speaker 5: So Tom hoping to hear a loud squeal.
Speaker 4: And Kathy built some insurance around their lawns. Well, I
Speaker 4: wanted something that they couldn't step over. An electric fence
Speaker 4: delivering a four hundred volt shock. It's on a timer,
Speaker 4: so it comes on about ten thirty at night, shuts
Speaker 4: off about five thirty in the morning, and as a
Speaker 4: courtesy to neighbors when these Christmas lights are on, if
Speaker 4: the lights are on, the fence is live. Oh yeah.
Speaker 4: NASA engineers wish they thought of this. You kind of
Speaker 4: have to take manners into your own hands. It's a
Speaker 4: little crazy, this saga has come to this. But they'd
Speaker 4: rather build a hog defying fortress.
Speaker 5: This may be the best solution yet.
Speaker 4: Then pay thousands repairing their lawns in Irving. I'm Matt Howardton,
Speaker 4: So what about these nighttime toddlers? Would just like to
Speaker 4: get out and move around there? But a little bit
Speaker 4: right before that time.
Speaker 2: I will here's what I thought.
Speaker 3: I thought about Amazon delivery drivers though, who do drop
Speaker 3: overnight packages and things like that?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Amazon delivery toddlers, you never got something.
Speaker 2: It'll be there between.
Speaker 1: Four and eight am, you know it. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you guys agree that. It was clear to me
Speaker 1: that Howardton was reporting that these neighbors hooked up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he kept but he's like they didn't know each other
Speaker 1: until she started wanting to hear some squealing.
Speaker 2: Right, playful banter soon led to a hookup.
Speaker 1: When the faral hogs are a fart in this van
Speaker 1: is a rocket? Or so maybe is she a big
Speaker 1: old girl? Because maybe that's the whole deal. Maybe it's
Speaker 1: like a double story. Maybe that's why it's called mcgeddon.
Speaker 1: This isn't appear to be bigger than the average size.
Speaker 1: Can you eat farrel hogs? Is that good eating?
Speaker 2: I don't think so.
Speaker 1: Hog mcgeddon is a great name for a big gal
Speaker 1: Sex festival.
Speaker 2: Festival, but where do you get your tickets?
Speaker 3: What's interesting about this too is at the end of
Speaker 3: it they're clearly less concerned about the hogs destroying their
Speaker 3: yard and more trying to hawk a product like mere
Speaker 3: So wishes they could come up with this. Right, you
Speaker 3: can contact Tom and Karen. I have five percent of
Speaker 3: the company as well. Why do you take a shot
Speaker 3: at NASA?
Speaker 2: No, Sen's what, Matt? Did you know it was a stretch?
Speaker 5: Yeah, NASA engineers, whosh, they knew.
Speaker 1: They're just sitting there watching this going seriously this little
Speaker 1: fence they made. You're taking a shot at us. It's
Speaker 1: very common, like they've I've seen this for years. Why
Speaker 1: don't we just drop Huheela's name and get Howardton on
Speaker 1: the show?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: Oh, KT doesn't want to stand off with him on
Speaker 2: the air.
Speaker 3: I think I think Matt would agree that's it is
Speaker 3: confusingly edited.
Speaker 2: I guarantee you'd kiss his ass.
Speaker 3: And we got him on the show, I would ask
Speaker 3: about some of the choices to put a SoundBite in
Speaker 3: of the other person after he says one person's name.
Speaker 1: But again he might haveing that off to an intern.
Speaker 1: That could be a great new show segment. Let's get
Speaker 1: a local reporter on and criticize their work. They would
Speaker 1: love that, you know what I actually do like that. Well,
Speaker 1: let's not even just hold it to be reporters. Let's
Speaker 1: just get someone on the show every week and criticize
Speaker 1: their work.
Speaker 2: Someone's got to get the media account. How about this.
Speaker 1: If you're listening to this and you have somebody out
Speaker 1: there that you think their work needs to be criticized,
Speaker 1: reach out to us on social media.
Speaker 2: Where the guys, where the guys, your people?
Speaker 1: Let us know what they're doing, Send us some of
Speaker 1: their work, and then we will be highly critical of
Speaker 1: it on the air.
Speaker 2: And then if we have to, we'll get them on
Speaker 2: the show and call them the task. We'll have critical Wednesdays.
Speaker 1: If I was Howardton, I would have ended that with
Speaker 1: but that's what you get for moving to Irving.
Speaker 2: I'm mad, Howardton.
Speaker 1: W faa al All right there it is the latest
Speaker 1: on Hogmageddon coming up next in honor of the inauguration
Speaker 1: happening yesterday, the thirteen best movie presidents in the history
Speaker 1: of movies.
Speaker 2: Next
