It's Calboy State Daily show at Jake soon to be with Jen Coker.
spk_0
We're going to get her on in a second.
spk_0
Who's in the Freedom Caucus?
spk_0
Calboy State Daily went to find out.
spk_0
We asked them all.
spk_0
And we got a pretty good idea.
spk_0
I probably have the house would affiliate with the Freedom Caucus.
spk_0
What would it cost to rebuild Interstate 80?
spk_0
You don't want to know.
spk_0
We don't have near enough money.
spk_0
People not being nice after the deaths of Charlie Kurt and Dick Cheney not surprised.
spk_0
People not being nice to cats.
spk_0
I'm not surprised and I can't just anger me.
spk_0
People that want to do harm to cats.
spk_0
On that note, let's get Jen Coker in here to calm me down.
spk_0
Who would shoot at a cat?
spk_0
I'm so angry about that.
spk_0
Seriously.
spk_0
Yeah, I don't get people.
spk_0
But the corollary to that is the dog who made it home after the crash.
spk_0
I love that.
spk_0
That's a really good story.
spk_0
The little chewy any dog named chewy.
spk_0
You can think of how he got that name.
spk_0
He probably don't have the pair of shoes that doesn't have holes in it.
spk_0
And that little dogs are still darn cute.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And it's a good thing it was a dash out because they got short legs and he was trying to run
spk_0
away from people.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And he got tied.
spk_0
He couldn't run for long.
spk_0
He got tired.
spk_0
He fell down.
spk_0
It's like belly up off in his day 80.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
He was found by a couple that was driving the concern couple.
spk_0
They did make an effort to get a hold of chewy.
spk_0
And he had a chip.
spk_0
Chewy had a chip.
spk_0
And we're going to get him back with mom.
spk_0
The kids are happy.
spk_0
Of course.
spk_0
And then a FedEx driver stepped in to help with the transport.
spk_0
So that's super cool.
spk_0
Everybody wants to help with animals.
spk_0
It goes back to my theory that animals are better than people.
spk_0
And I mean, testament that story in itself.
spk_0
That's the first one I went to.
spk_0
Oh, yeah.
spk_0
It is the, it should be the lead story.
spk_0
Why didn't I lead with that?
spk_0
Because that's the feel good story we need more of.
spk_0
We do.
spk_0
Way to go.
spk_0
Scott Schwabky.
spk_0
You wrote the story in the cowboy state daily about chewy the dog who's on his way home.
spk_0
Presumably two different color eye dogs.
spk_0
Those dogs are always weird.
spk_0
Yeah, they are.
spk_0
They always have a.
spk_0
Yeah, I've always found them different than same color that what do they call it to color
spk_0
eye person?
spk_0
There's a name for that.
spk_0
Yes, there is people to chime in on Facebook help us out.
spk_0
Yeah, but don't call it dumb.
spk_0
Yeah, right.
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
Don't chime in on Facebook if you want to think Evansville is a town.
spk_0
It was around longer than I thought 1923.
spk_0
What was Casper like in 1923?
spk_0
Casper was still bigger than Evansville.
spk_0
Casper.
spk_0
I don't know.
spk_0
I don't know anything about Casper.
spk_0
Casper wanted to be the state capital.
spk_0
And at the time, they had like equal population with Cheyenne and pretty much today similarly
spk_0
also, but Cheyenne won out.
spk_0
Casper would have made more sense centrally located honestly, but Cheyenne's on 80.
spk_0
So six, seven.
spk_0
Oops.
spk_0
Because art and capital is typically in the center of the state.
spk_0
Well, they're just easier to get to.
spk_0
That's why I mean Cheyenne misses out whenever there's a, that's why all the, um, you know,
spk_0
sporting tournaments.
spk_0
If there's a big volleyball tournament, you're more likely to have it where everybody can
spk_0
get there equally, you know, four hour, three hour drive.
spk_0
But if you're in Cody and you got some competition in Cheyenne, pack a lunch, arrest the bar,
spk_0
the governor's Air Force one.
spk_0
Because it's amazing to me how far people travel for sports in this state.
spk_0
spk_0
Because I'm in Gillette and I see buses come in.
spk_0
And I mean, it's not just one bus.
spk_0
It's like 30 from all over the state for various tournaments.
spk_0
And it's like, how are you?
spk_0
How?
spk_0
I mean, to have a parent of a child of a place for it would be a lot.
spk_0
It's a full time job.
spk_0
Well, it's to be a parent's full time job.
spk_0
You're a chauffeur.
spk_0
You're a chef.
spk_0
Um, and then, you know, before you even get to the parenting, you're constantly driving
spk_0
them somewhere.
spk_0
But yeah, if they're into sports, especially a multi sport athlete, it's life on the bus
spk_0
for the kid.
spk_0
And yeah, you're, you're committed.
spk_0
You should be, you want to be committed by the time the four years are done.
spk_0
Yeah, it's long driving.
spk_0
Gillette's on the news about that hate crime thing.
spk_0
I think that's interesting.
spk_0
Yeah, I can't say I know much about that.
spk_0
I need to educate myself more about that.
spk_0
Well, in general, you know, there's hate crimes that are that make punishable, make extra
spk_0
punishment for crimes that are already crimes.
spk_0
And Gillette has one on the books and they're thinking about taking it off, repealing it.
spk_0
Because they think it brings a bad, you know, just to have a hate crime brings notoriety
spk_0
to hate crimes.
spk_0
And they're like, well, we don't want it anymore.
spk_0
And anyway, there are crimes are crimes.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
So they vote it was, it's close.
spk_0
It's a tough one.
spk_0
Four, three vote.
spk_0
First reading, it's got to go through three to repeal their hate crime that is already
spk_0
on the books.
spk_0
Hard to get them off.
spk_0
Want something's on.
spk_0
It's hard to get it off.
spk_0
Very hard to get it off.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Well, we'll see where this goes.
spk_0
What else is going on with you?
spk_0
I was just researching before I jumped on your show, missing kid.
spk_0
And this is a, his name's Justin Harris.
spk_0
He disappeared from Casper, a Casper group home in 2004.
spk_0
And the Casper police actually put out a release on it.
spk_0
And typically when that happens, I never cover those stories come to like everybody's going
spk_0
to grab it.
spk_0
It's just going to be a press release story.
spk_0
And then our editor said, can you look into this?
spk_0
So I am digging in.
spk_0
So I found some family to speak to.
spk_0
I'm speaking to the National Center of Exploity to Missing Children, which I didn't know
spk_0
has an investigative team.
spk_0
So they actually sent investigators to look for this kid back in 2004.
spk_0
Hmm.
spk_0
Where are they?
spk_0
Where are they headquartered?
spk_0
That outside.
spk_0
Very good question.
spk_0
I'm going to guess and say Virginia.
spk_0
But I think there's a second.
spk_0
I don't know.
spk_0
I'll find out.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
But yeah, so I'm going to talk to a guy from there today, which I found kind of interesting.
spk_0
And the last effort on this was 2011.
spk_0
So I feel like every decade or so, police will take a new look at the case.
spk_0
And clearly there was something they found that a new detective found.
spk_0
This is my guess.
spk_0
And they want to get the story out again.
spk_0
So anytime there's any kind of momentum from police on them on there.
spk_0
Interesting.
spk_0
And that's sometimes what it takes like a new, a new hire, a new guy behind the badge,
spk_0
new gal behind the badge.
spk_0
And they have a spare 10 minutes in their job.
spk_0
I'm sure it's so you're constantly just responding.
spk_0
You're reacting.
spk_0
You're just putting out fires all day as law enforcement.
spk_0
But if you.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Maybe whatever it's you sparks your interest.
spk_0
You see some old Manila folder in the back of a, you know, those old filing cabinets.
spk_0
You think they're still around those big giant pieces of furniture and some of them are
spk_0
wood and some are metal.
spk_0
I love them.
spk_0
And the very back, there's some yellowed out tab that's just yellowed with age.
spk_0
And it's like cold case 2004.
spk_0
You're like, oh, that's interesting.
spk_0
Yeah, somebody pulls it out, looks at it and sees something that somebody else didn't see
spk_0
years ago.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And I will say this about Casper that I know.
spk_0
They're both the Casper PD and the Casper sheriffs off or Necherna County Sheriff.
spk_0
And my experience do not like cold cases.
spk_0
They want that stuff solved.
spk_0
They don't like them sitting around on their watch.
spk_0
Yeah, like do not like there.
spk_0
It bothers them that there's a case without a closure.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Yeah, good.
spk_0
Hmm.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
So that's what I'm up to.
spk_0
And just, you know, looking at for missing people like I did, Jake, it's six in the morning
spk_0
on Thursday.
spk_0
All right.
spk_0
What I do.
spk_0
Very good.
spk_0
Um, yeah, I got nothing else for you, really.
spk_0
I'm still.
spk_0
Yeah, I got nothing for you.
spk_0
I'm trying to wake up still.
spk_0
I mean, this is just a not robust morning for me.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Me too.
spk_0
It's a little rainy.
spk_0
I have to go to the dentist today.
spk_0
There's no reason to live right now for me.
spk_0
There's no reason to be excited.
spk_0
Oh, how many times you cancel before you go to the dentist?
spk_0
I'm a solid three.
spk_0
And then after three, I don't allow myself.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Are you, are you like that?
spk_0
Um, uh, you mean like three years?
spk_0
No, no, no.
spk_0
Three appointments.
spk_0
You have to cancel it three times.
spk_0
Uh, yup.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
I hate the dentist.
spk_0
I, I, I am sorry, dentist, but it's just a miserable experience.
spk_0
And it's never, never walk away with good news ever.
spk_0
It's like sometimes you go to the doctor and you're like, yeah, that number's good.
spk_0
You've done a good job there.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
At the dentist, I just feel like a bad person.
spk_0
I walk in there and like just tell me what I've done wrong.
spk_0
Let's get it over with.
spk_0
And then right.
spk_0
Right.
spk_0
Send it up for an appointment in a week with a lot of pain.
spk_0
Right.
spk_0
Like, it's never going to be good news.
spk_0
I've never done it right.
spk_0
There's somebody who's just way more tooth conscious than I am.
spk_0
I'm like, I just need them to chew food, man.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
I can't just you tell itarian right?
spk_0
I'm stupid.
spk_0
There are, these my teeth are a Jeep, no, Alexis.
spk_0
I just need them to do the job.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
I mean, they're supposed to be helpful in a smile, but smiles.
spk_0
Um, yeah, I, yep.
spk_0
That's how I feel.
spk_0
And then you to make your next appointment.
spk_0
I mean, how am I going to know six months from now if, if this is okay at one 30?
spk_0
I don't know.
spk_0
Oh, yeah.
spk_0
I don't know if I'm even problem.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
What?
spk_0
Uh, yeah.
spk_0
We good for May 14th at one 30.
spk_0
Uh, yeah, sure.
spk_0
And then when it gets to be May 13th and you get that reminder text or phone call, you're
spk_0
like, Oh, geez.
spk_0
That's not going to work.
spk_0
Especially when you have to go from your planner into the new year and you don't have
spk_0
that planner yet.
spk_0
Hmm.
spk_0
All right.
spk_0
So Tuesday we decided Evansville, you're a made up town Thursday, Dennis, then the ADA is
spk_0
going to call and say, you guys are not helping us.
spk_0
No, no.
spk_0
And cancel.
spk_0
I mean, you've got three, three firm cancellations.
spk_0
Three good shots.
spk_0
Like, this isn't going to work for me today.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
It's just.
spk_0
All right.
spk_0
We forget it out again.
spk_0
I'll see you Tuesday.
spk_0
Yes, sounds good.
spk_0
Have a great weekend.
spk_0
You do the same.
spk_0
Thank you.
spk_0
Bye bye.
spk_0
Bye.
spk_0
That's Jen Coker, cowboy state daily talking about missing people in a case that looks
spk_0
like we have some resolution.
spk_0
That's great.
spk_0
2004 Missing's case out of Casper.
spk_0
Could have a ending to it.
spk_0
Happy ending to the lost dog.
spk_0
We're going to get to that.
spk_0
It is a happy ending for the cat, although it's disturbing to know that somebody
spk_0
would harm the cat.
spk_0
There are those.
spk_0
Somebody's out there.
spk_0
The majority of the Facebook comments on that story for the cowboy state daily.
spk_0
In fact, all of them except for one credit.
spk_0
This guy first standing up.
spk_0
I mean, most guys who make a comment like this dude, man on Facebook, they either
spk_0
take it off later or they use a fake.
spk_0
Facebook profile.
spk_0
This is a real dude in Riverton who said, hey, it's okay to shoot feral cats.
spk_0
They they breed like crazy.
spk_0
Um, they make for good target.
spk_0
I don't know what exactly he said, but man did he get.
spk_0
He got some blowback.
spk_0
I'm not going to see his name.
spk_0
I don't want to out him, but 99.999999.
spk_0
I know I'm a percent of people say it's not okay.
spk_0
To shoot cats with guns, shoot cats, bows and arrows or or blow blow darts into them.
spk_0
All of the above happened to this poor little cat that's still alive.
spk_0
We'll talk about that.
spk_0
Cats, dogs, it's raining cats and dogs on the show today.
spk_0
Coming back at you in a moment.
spk_0
How do you know when you've made the right decision?
spk_0
It's the feeling you get in your gut.
spk_0
The one that tells you what's right or wrong.
spk_0
It's the one that says, sure, I can have a drink or the feeling that says, okay, I've been drinking.
spk_0
Now what?
spk_0
It's the voice inside you that says, I'm bust.
spk_0
Better leave the car when it's time to go.
spk_0
Plan ahead, catch us over ride.
spk_0
Bus driving is drunk driving.
spk_0
This is the Cowboy State Daily Radio Network.
spk_0
Cowboys say, daily show and jake.
spk_0
You know they caught those thieves that stole a bunch of stuff at the Louvre, this mashing grab?
spk_0
They did catch them.
spk_0
102 million dollars in jewels stolen last month.
spk_0
The brazen.
spk_0
Thevery.
spk_0
And now we learn that part of the reason the thieves were successful was because surveillance cameras in the alleyway where they brought the truck and stuff like that were.
spk_0
Some of the surveillance cameras were hacked were turned off.
spk_0
You know, we all learn from.
spk_0
The casino robberies, oceans, one, oceans, ten, oceans, eleven, oceans, 86, oceans, oceans.
spk_0
We all learn from that franchise movie franchise that the first step in robbing a heavily surveilled building is you got to knock out the camera.
spk_0
You got to hack into the cameras and you need that one dude.
spk_0
I don't know who it is in oceans, eleven, but I know that I can see the dude you need.
spk_0
Inmission impossible with the short guy.
spk_0
Tom Cruise.
spk_0
Pig.
spk_0
Pig is his name, right?
spk_0
Everybody's listening now going what are you talking about the dude.
spk_0
Mission impossible cast.
spk_0
Simon Pegg.
spk_0
That's the dude you need.
spk_0
Simon Pegg.
spk_0
I'll share his photo here on the interwebs.
spk_0
This is the dude that hacks this surveillance cameras.
spk_0
You need this dude if you're going to rob jewels at the Louvre or you could just guess the password for the whole video surveillance at the Louvre, the most famous museum in the world.
spk_0
Supposedly an employee has said at the time of the robbery the password for the Louvre's video surveillance system was Louvre.
spk_0
That's right up there with one, two, three, four.
spk_0
What?
spk_0
For reals.
spk_0
Maybe the Louvre thought that anybody who would be crazy enough to steal from the Louvre would not be French.
spk_0
Because most Americans would have trouble spelling the word much less saying it.
spk_0
Right.
spk_0
If it was an American knocking off the place, you probably wouldn't guess Louvre is the password because you wouldn't know how to spell it.
spk_0
It is L.O.U. V.R.E. just so you know.
spk_0
But yeah, the ABC is reporting at the time of the brazen heist of $102 million worth in jewels.
spk_0
I don't know if they recovered them.
spk_0
They caught the guys they believe responsible.
spk_0
I don't know if they did recover the jewels.
spk_0
But at the time of that robbery last month, the password of the video surveillance system at the Louvre Museum was Louvre.
spk_0
Oh, that's like one, two, three, four.
spk_0
That's like password.
spk_0
What's your password password?
spk_0
Those are your first two guesses, right?
spk_0
If you're Simon Pegg and you're hacking into the Louvre video and you don't do it the way Simon Pegg would,
spk_0
he would use the jumper cables, you know, he would have some, he would solder, he would get in there and do some electronics, you know.
spk_0
He has to crawl into a some kind of HVAC heating cooling vent and then he would physically do it.
spk_0
But you know, with jumper cables, would patch cable.
spk_0
Yeah, like I know.
spk_0
Don't I sound like a well informed art museum robber?
spk_0
Or you could just guess the password and your first three guesses would be password, one, two, three, four or Louvre.
spk_0
And I don't even know if that's how they hacked in or that was a part of it, but I've just funny that that was in the news.
spk_0
Which reminds me of passwords that are put on, for instance, a hotel or a motel, if you stay in like a two star dive motel and they have the crummyest Wi-Fi, you know, they have one router, it's in the office.
spk_0
And you're on the wing, you're on a room like 800 yards from the office.
spk_0
I mean, you can't even see it from there. So your router, you got like one bar on the Wi-Fi router.
spk_0
Yet that thing is password protected like it's the Louvre or no, apparently not.
spk_0
It's password protected like it's Fort Knox.
spk_0
And you're like, why? Who is looking to get on a hotel, you know, oh yeah, I'm going to get on the rumors hotel in Riverton, two star hotel with a one star rating.
spk_0
Yeah, I'm going to get on rumors Wi-Fi and I'm up to no good.
spk_0
What are you going to do on a motel's Wi-Fi?
spk_0
What, what is the motel worried that you're going to do on their Wi-Fi, that they got a password protected with like a 14 letter combination letter number.
spk_0
You got a couple of those things you can only do on a keyboard.
spk_0
If you're holding down three keys, and pressing a fourth, you know, the symbol for boron, the egg, the zero with a line slash through, I mean, no, no one would ever guess it in a
spk_0
trillion years and they change it like every month.
spk_0
Really for your Wi-Fi.
spk_0
What, what is the downside? What if somebody actually actually uses your Wi-Fi?
spk_0
What if somebody has no Wi-Fi at home? Some loser.
spk_0
And he pulls his rusting Chevy, I'm trying to think of it like a crummy car.
spk_0
He pulls in his AMC Pacer, his Ford Pinto into your parking lot for 12 minutes while he uses your Wi-Fi because he's guessed the password that's 14 characters long.
spk_0
Meanwhile at the Louvre, they have priceless collection of stuff their password is Louvre.
spk_0
Wow, I was supposed to be doing the weather before I got sidetracked.

spk_0
Before we dig into the meaty part of the news, let's have dessert first.
spk_0
Let's do that.
spk_0
Desert before the meal.
spk_0
And the dessert is this happy story from Scotch Webky.
spk_0
Believe dead in crash on Wyoming highway lost dog is found alive a week later just surviving outdoors Wyoming.
spk_0
And you're a little dog and I'm talking to a dash out, you know, short little legs.
spk_0
Just surviving a week out there in the Wyoming wilderness impressive.
spk_0
We can thank a Wyoming couple and a FedEx driver for getting this seven year old dash home back where it belongs.
spk_0
The dash house name is chewy and may soon be back with his owner and Portland Oregon not back yet, but hopefully soon.
spk_0
Here's how it went down 11 a.m. Monday, Scott and Cody all red, both 49 years old driving a visit their son who attends Northern Colorado in Greeley University of Northern Colorado.
spk_0
They're on their way there, I guess.
spk_0
So when they see this dog, I guess they Monday, they're on their way to attend the sun.
spk_0
And they see a black weener dog catches the eye alongside of I 80 near elk mountain, the stretch of I 80 that's like, you know, no Tories for being nasty weather.
spk_0
Fearful the dash on would be hit by oncoming traffic Scott pulls the truck to the side of the road.
spk_0
He and the wife get out of the vehicle and they try to pick up the dog. The little dog was terrified. Scott said I couldn't get near it.
spk_0
Try to call him.
spk_0
But he ran off.
spk_0
And we did know his name, chewy.
spk_0
He started chasing him and trying to cut him off. So he wouldn't run onto the highway.
spk_0
Meanwhile, the wife said she was wearing boots that day. So she didn't help with the chase.
spk_0
These wives always have an excuse, right?
spk_0
I need you here, Cody.
spk_0
Help me out. Try to flank him over. I'm wearing my boots, Scott.
spk_0
Oh, all right.
spk_0
No, I'm sure she played a vital role in trapping chewy.
spk_0
She kept eyes on the dog and drove to the okay. So she was in charge of the vehicle.
spk_0
She got behind the wheel of the truck and made sure that dog did not get back out on the I 80.
spk_0
Scott finally crowd the dog. He said the only reason he caught him is that dogs little legs gave out.
spk_0
But man was he fast while he was running poor chewy.
spk_0
You know, he's got short little dash on legs. So yeah, he's running away.
spk_0
But this is after he's already spent a week in the wild.
spk_0
So chewy was pretty much out of gas. The tank was empty.
spk_0
He made an attempt at escape scared out of his mind and then finally Scott grabbed him when he fell over just tired.
spk_0
Put a collar on him. Got him.
spk_0
Got him grabbed up, put him in the truck. And then here's here's where I don't understand the part of the story.
spk_0
They're on their way to visit their son at college and no doubt the son is waiting looking at his clock going, where are mom and dad?
spk_0
Yeah, no doubt.
spk_0
He's at a college frat party.
spk_0
Maybe the all reds on the way there, though, take a detour.
spk_0
They drive into Laramie and they find a vet, the vet scans and sure enough, there's a microchip and bed at beneath the neck of the skin of the dogs neck.
spk_0
They determined chewy belongs to a 33 year old named Amanda lore of Kokomo, Indiana.
spk_0
They contact Amanda and she says, yes, me and my boyfriend were on I 80 about a week ago, I lost my job recently and we were traveling from Kokomo, Indiana.
spk_0
There's a town for you to Portland, Oregon.
spk_0
And we got in a terrible accident. This is on October 24th, about 630. She said we are driving a Buick century and we are trying to pass a truck or a truck was passing them.
spk_0
They were struck by a semi truck as it attempted to pass. Oh, okay.
spk_0
Well, that trucker is speaks English.
spk_0
Their Buick ended up rolling three times, crashed into a ditch. They had chewy and they had a cat as well.
spk_0
The cat sustained such injuries that had to be put down.
spk_0
The dog they assume was just gone. They couldn't find lore was injured, taken by ambulance to a hospital in Rawlands.
spk_0
The boy friend sustained such a bad neck fracture. He was airlifted to a hospital in Casper.
spk_0
So neither were on site to even deal with the animals. The cat was found and had to be euthanized. The dog, who knows.
spk_0
In fact, she said I figured the dog was eventually run over on the highway, but not so more than a week later, she gets the phone call saying we got your dog.
spk_0
Chewy, she was pretty happy. So were her kids. I guess she's got a couple of kids that were really having a tough time with the loss of the dog.
spk_0
Chewy and then along comes Kenny Coombs. He's a long haul trucker for FedEx. Make several trips a week between Salt Lake City and Scott's bluff Nebraska.
spk_0
He had also spotted Chewy on occasion before the all reds captured in and Coombs found out. I think the Facebook's.
spk_0
Yeah, a friend tagged him on Facebook saying, Hey, isn't this the dog you see on I 80 that's running around for the last week.
spk_0
And he's like, yeah, I think it is. He gets in touch with the people that found the dog. He gets in touch with owners.
spk_0
And he is hoping to arrange a fellow FedEx trucker to who goes makes a run to Portland to deliver the dog to Amanda lore in Portland.
spk_0
So man, how it all worked out for little Chewy this seven year old dashhounds. Oh, fortunate.
spk_0
But he's got nine lives or at least two. Yeah, living on borrowed time, Chewy.
spk_0
He's hopefully on his way to Portland. What a great story from Scotch Webkey. All's well that ends well with animals. Let's talk about the cat story because this one has a little more tragedy to it, but a nice ending.
spk_0
The story by Renee Jane Miracle cats survives being impaled by a blow dart and shot with a gun yellow orange tabby stray plat county Wyoming.
spk_0
The cat's been named lucky. It's a feral cat. It's a wild cat. And Linda Fabian is the one that found him. Linda says that she's been noticing a colony, a small colony of cats near Wheat.
spk_0
And she occasionally feeds them. She's been watching them. You know, the kind of feral cats that they live together, but they're all, you know, pretty wild. You can't touch them. You can't really get near them.
spk_0
But she'll leave him food when she came. And she noticed one of the cats on the colony was limping one day. So she set out to try to capture it. She worked with critters ink.
spk_0
Megan Luzinski and she tried to catch capture the limping cat. I think they ended up catching that, but they also caught two more. They caught a three and total.
spk_0
They must use some kind of trap or something. And what and the cat that was limping. I don't know what happened with that. But one of the cats they caught incidentally was this orange one.
spk_0
And they noticed they had a wound on it. So they brought them all to the vet. And they had the vet check out the limping cat. They had the vet check out the orange cat with a hole in it. The vet looked at the wound and said, yeah, there is a hole here. The size of a pencil.
spk_0
It looks like it's already healing. So I wouldn't be too worried about it. Yet the vet had this gut feeling about the wound. The vet said, I just didn't feel right about it. She decided to x ray the cat and found out something truly shocking jaw dropping Renee says, Megan, the vet said she saw in the x ray.
spk_0
A large arrow shape piece of metal lodged inside the cat. Within its ribcage, it had gone right between its heart and lungs about five inches long. Megan Fabian said, oh, just grow. We have the x ray here that.
spk_0
Well, share the photo. If you get a chance, are you listening on radio or you know, enjoying the visuals of the show, go back, check out the archives. If you're on YouTube, Facebook, X cowboy state daily dot com archive there.
spk_0
A lot of ways you can see the video or you can just go to the story when you get a chance again, it's renaging miracle cats survives being impaled by blow dart and shot with a gun.
spk_0
The video shows this. Yeah, five inch long blow dart inside the cat. Gross. There's the dart when they pulled it out.
spk_0
So cats all patched up. So how you know, this is a feral cat brought in by a animal lover. So who's got the money to fund this? Actually, the vet took it upon herself. She's like, well, this is super costly.
spk_0
I doubt the cat will even survive this. But you know what, this cat's been he's so tough. He's shown a will to live. I'm going to try it. We're going to call him lucky and we're going to try to put him on the table. See if we can get it out.
spk_0
So, and they did our long surgery. They were able to remove that blow dart. They left the bullet in the cat. That would have been too dangerous to try to pull it out. And they patched the cat up and very quickly after the surgery, the cat was sitting up and asking for food.
spk_0
The cat's name is lucky. Hopefully it could be adopted. Although both the good Samaritan cat lover Linda Fabian and the vet do notice that the cat has a bit of an attitude. I mean, this is a feral cat. And it's never been handled. And they said, yeah, he hisses a lot. He's kind of angry with the world.
spk_0
The cat is hanging out with Lucinski now of that critters outfit. And Fabian said the last time I spoke to her, she said that cat still kind of pissed off the cat hisses and growls.
spk_0
But he is eating and he's getting exercise, but he's not very nice. He may never be nice. And you could understand why.
spk_0
Who did it? Linda Fabian says, I think I may have a suspect in mind. She said, there was a neighbor who moved away. Some people have informed me that.
spk_0
That might be the guy. And she did have police come to her house and she said the police were gracious to officers came to my building where she works, I guess, talked to me.
spk_0
File the report.
spk_0
I had someone who had given me a name of a potential suspect who was and the reason they thought about this guy was, I guess they found some similar blow darts that turned up in neighbors tires.
spk_0
So perhaps this ex neighbor was blowing blow darts and people's tires, she cats with it, whatever.
spk_0
But he has since moved away. So the cops probably not following that up says Linda Fabian. But the story so far with a happy ending, the cat may have some long lasting arthritis issues with the bullet in it says the vet, but the cat will make a full recovery now.
spk_0
It's just a matter of being patient enough to deal with the hissing, the growling, because it's not a happy cat right now.
spk_0
And yeah, everybody on the Facebook's reacting how you would think everybody saying, what is wrong with people? I'm just paraphrasing the primary response on Facebook for the Cowboys Day Daily story regarding this cat. What is wrong with people?
spk_0
That's pretty much the consensus with the exception of one guy who I will not name. I want to see if his post is still there. It was one guy who had the audacity. Give him credit. He used his real name. I'm assuming his Facebook profile appears real.
spk_0
Um, he lives in Riverton and that's all I'll disclose, but he did.
spk_0
Uh, he did say cats are legal to shoot with anything if the 100 yards away or more from a dwelling or property. I didn't know that I don't know that that is true or a lot. That's just this guy saying that.
spk_0
Cats are legal to shoot and I'm just thinking, dude, read the room. This is a story about a cat that got darted and shot and somehow has survived through the kindness of the person that found them, the kindness of the vet who donated her time and operated.
spk_0
And your comment on this story is cats are legal to shoot got to say to man. Read the room. These are the same people, same kind of people making derogatory posts in the death of Dick Cheney or that, you know, on the death of Charlie Kirk. Now's not the time kind of post like you may have your opinion on somebody.
spk_0
But they've just died. They have family have people mourning their loss someday. You're going to die. Is this really what you want people commenting on you. It's the golden rule. Do one to others. Come on.
spk_0
That's in the news today as well. People who are making those kind of negative posts about Dick Cheney. Now is not the time. I don't know if there's ever a time just
spk_0
pause before you open your mouth or put your fingers on the keyboard. And similarly this guy cats are legal to shoot.
spk_0
Ferrel cats kill everything in breed like crazy. Good on you. He says.
spk_0
The only thing I would say different is they should have used a bigger broad had on the dark. It works well for me. Oh man.
spk_0
I mean, it's just rubbing it in right. It's just turning the screws. It's just putting salt on the wound like dude. Really. Do you want to invite that kind of.
spk_0
Hey, you're going to get.

Cowboys State Daily Show with Jake on a Thursday and yeah.
spk_0
The reminder from Christine.
spk_0
It's a feral cat. It destroys birds.
spk_0
True. I got a cat that's.
spk_0
I want to say half feral but not really. It's pretty domesticated but he kills birds.
spk_0
And he's punished for doing so. I yell at him. Spank him.
spk_0
His success rate with birds is not terrific. He kills way more mice.
spk_0
But he does kill birds and I. I acknowledge that and I think it's something that.
spk_0
Is worth noting as Christine says cats do take their share of birds and I.
spk_0
Just something you got to ask yourself a can I live with that.
spk_0
Cats kill stuff.
spk_0
Mice not wanted by most of us so we we say okay with that and when they kill a bird.
spk_0
What do we say to that.
spk_0
Pretty much not good right but cats kill stuff and it's something you live with if you're going to be a cat person.
spk_0
If you're not a cat person you have to ask yourself what do you do when the cat does kill a bird.
spk_0
Shoot it with an arrow a blow dart a 22.
spk_0
Poison it.
spk_0
I don't know. Yeah cats kill stuff to kill birds to kill mice that's what they do.
spk_0
I I appreciate the cat for being the one animal domesticated yet retains most of its wildness.
spk_0
There's been tons of studies on that.
spk_0
I don't know what you call it it's instainkt it's it's not it's DNA but you know the dog the dashhound chewy that was rescued.
spk_0
He's so far removed from his ancestors the wolf so far.
spk_0
He's got short little legs and despite the fact he did survive a week in the wild and Wyoming.
spk_0
He doesn't he's lost so much of the instincts of the wolf of the his worries descended from.
spk_0
Whereas the cat retains almost all of its wildness the cat does even your average lap warming fuzzy cat.
spk_0
It's still inherently inside a wild animal like a wild cat very much it does very much the same things as the same killer instinct.
spk_0
That part I think is pretty cool about a cat how it continues to be pretty wild.
spk_0
Even though it will meow at 3 30 in the morning for a can of tuna and you say well how wild is that seems pretty domesticated this is how he eats now.
spk_0
Meowing until you wake up but they are they do remain pretty wild sorry well want to get into the story about the Gillette City Council they voted for three Tuesday meeting to repeal a hate crime that they've had on the
spk_0
books as a hate crime ordinance.
spk_0
That was the first reading two more readings for the repealing to become effective and there were very strong arguments on both sides of the case I want to dive deep into this and talk about
spk_0
Yeah the hate crime thing in Gillette.
spk_0
I also want to give heads up for our our next guest we got Terence Bradford is going to jump in here as our first guest next hour and Terence has a brand new TV reality show I mean brand new hasn't dropped yet it's still in production.
spk_0
Still in casting calls but hopefully you'll see it one day soon a brand new TV reality competition show regard all centered around Terence Bradford's notion of a pay a check for life.
spk_0
How how to set yourself up with a check like a paycheck for life and especially in light of some of the headlines we're seeing like 93% of Americans struggling to save for a house that home purchase your first home the true American dream is out of reach from any of us.
spk_0
Why is that and why are so many people struggling in this K shaped economy we'll talk all about that and what Terence Bradford is doing about it with the TV show and his whole movement a check for life we'll talk to him first thing next hour that will be interesting for now though we is out of time this hour we'll pick up the discussion right after top of the hour news for our radio affiliates.
spk_0
See you in just minutes.
spk_0
Hey good Thursday to you seven Thursday. Oh November 6th. I'm a little ahead of myself.
spk_0
Tomorrow be seven. All right. A lot of things happen on this day in history when we get to that busy busy day on this day in history.
spk_0
Hope and we're going to be able to connect with Terence Bradford talk about his new TV show which centers around just the idea of financing yourself better the family financing.
spk_0
Can you possibly save enough money to buy a new home in this economy anymore home prices remain stubbornly high there are several reasons for that certainly there's also news that a new report from ABC news is where we're getting the story the new report released Wednesday
spk_0
yesterday by federal reserve bank of New York finds that American household debt levels have hit record highs and it's probably not surprising whether it's the mortgage the car loans the credit card student loans are all of the above a new record high according to the data total household debt reached 18.59 trillion
spk_0
from July through September of this past year that's up 197 billion these are staggering numbers I mean you can't even visualize 18.6 trillion but let's just say it's a record high by far record high household debt in America has hit a record high we have never been more in debt than we are now I was also reading the story about the
spk_0
K graph and I thought that was pretty interesting what did I do with that story
spk_0
I'm I'm trying to find it I'm yeah that the K graph of the economy where you've got
spk_0
something zooming like luxury that's right confine it right stand by the like luxury car sales are booming stock market soaring yet at their same time there's lines for food banks around the block
spk_0
how do you reconcile those two different things well it's to have and have not it's the 1% in the 99 and it's what economists keep referring to as this the K economy the K shaped graph where one leg of the K is shooting upward in one leg of a K is shooting down into the right
spk_0
yeah and that's kind of what we're in and I don't know how long that's sustainable breaking news Nancy Pelosi says she will not seek re-election when her term ends in 2027 that'll be a long time from now but interesting
spk_0
40 airports affected by capacity cuts due to government shutdown government shutdown has had its has taken a toll on the air traffic controllers which has affected
spk_0
flights many delayed and canceled and now to the point where proactively there are 40 airports name that will just go into a hiatus into a shutdown because there's not enough air traffic controllers and TSA agents to go around
spk_0
what's airports are they I guess we could go into that if Terrence is not here and they still don't see him and we're going to have to turn the corner on Terrence Bradford I think
spk_0
40 airports affected by the shutdown I don't think they include any major hubs but they include some heavy traffic airports Louville Memphis Anchorage Ontario California
spk_0
Teter Borough New Jersey many of these airports by the way do a ton of cargo so I wonder if that's going to now start to mess with your Amazon purchase I mean it's one thing to have your vacation flight delayed or you know you're trying to fly to grandmother's house for Thanksgiving but but if that package doesn't get here on Amazon that'll really have us I rate huh
spk_0
Boston Logan International Airport well that's a major airport that's affected that's in the list list could change it's not been finalized the FF the FAA working with these airports and the government they're trying to shuttle around the remaining air traffic controllers that continued work without pay furloughed
spk_0
Ronald Reagan Washington National Denver International by the way DIA's on the list Denver for worth so it is some biggies LaGuardia New York L.A.X. I mean it's all the biggies
spk_0
hmm federal aviation administrations plan to slash airline capacity
spk_0
due to government shutdown could hit hit some of the nation's busiest airports including Atlanta Dallas New York City L.A. They are on the proposed list transportation secretary Sean Duffy announced yesterday 40 high volume areas that will have their traffic cut by 10% in the coming days if this 36 day long government shutdown continues
spk_0
so expect your air travel to be hindered once again breaking news Nancy Pelosi says she will not seek reelection when her term ends which is not until 2027 by the way I'm still worried about three I atlas that meteor slash UFO that's heading towards earth
spk_0
I heard it was going to be here December 5 or 6 then I hear other reports I might get here sooner like November 30th
spk_0
and again there's more than one scientist the police this is an on not only an unusually behaving comment
spk_0
but could be an intelligent sign of an intelligent life it could it's doing things this comment this media or whatever it is
spk_0
it's doing things that make its behavior it's flight pattern it's orbit it's doing things that make some scientists think it's a spaceship
spk_0
the three I atlas still heading our way and I'm still worried about that and I'm among the majority worried about AI destroying us mankind 51% of us I think a new study was just on about what we think about artificial intelligence
spk_0
whether we use it whether we like it and whether we think it's going to be our downfall and I think report show the midge oh there's the K shaped economy story I was looking for right when I don't need it
spk_0
yeah majority of Americans 53% of us think AI will quote destroy humanity someday I'll terminator to judgment day a new study by you gov you gov survey finds real people actual humans are much more pessimistic about artificial intelligence
spk_0
and its potential to impact lives than other sectors like Silicon Valley who
spk_0
creating in the streets over artificial intelligence and Wall Street which is right now zooming it's the new housing bubble it's the new tech bubble I mean anything to do with AI whether it's Nvidia or chat GPT anybody doing anything in AI chat GPT
spk_0
Atlas Nvidia the AI chip making giant their stock is going nuts because that's the future artificial intelligence meanwhile that programmers lot of jobs available programming AI because we do kind of like what it does according to the surveys about a third of us found
spk_0
chat GPT for instance helpful 85% of us overwhelmingly overwhelming majority have used AI chatbots 85% of us says yes we've used AI in some fashion in some way and found it to be at least somewhat helpful
spk_0
15% of us say our experience with chatbots has been mostly negative found their their input found chat GPT for instance or any other chatbot if you ask it 15% of us have negative
spk_0
not surprisingly a majority of us think we can spot fake stuff in other words deep fakes or artificial intelligence has created this is an AI generated content in other words 55% of Americans think they can spot fake stuff an AI derived story that isn't real the majority of us slight 55% here's what's interesting
spk_0
56% of us think that other people can't spot the fake so it sounds like a lot of optimistic younger generation believes they know a fake when they see it but they're afraid grandma doesn't
spk_0
but the big takeaway 53% of a slight majority believe AI while it might be useful while they have used it to success believe it will destroy mankind someday
spk_0
tell me in that camp yeah I think that's how we go down eventually I tell me I have the zoom room open yeah but I don't know what happened to our man Terrence perhaps another day
spk_0
of your hockey fan I wonder if Jordan Bennington the goalie was really trying to steal this trophy puck game last night Washington capitals beat St. Louis and Alex Ovechkin you probably heard of him
spk_0
a O the grade eight scored his 900th goal made his 900th career NHL goal no player has ever scored 900 goals that is a historic landmark and the the puck from that go obviously would be a trophy item right it's like a home run ball when you hit a home run and one of the fans catches it and the fan can then sell it on eBay for millions
spk_0
imagine what the 900 goal puck is worth so Alex Ovechkin scores the goal and the goalie who gave the goal up Jordan Bennington he takes the puck and it's obvious to ever you can see him and he takes it gets the puck out of the net usually goalies
spk_0
they don't like to see the puck on their net they either swoosh it out because they're all mad or they skate away let somebody else get it because they're mad because they gave a book goal Bennington you can see reaches down picks it up and tucks it in his pants like hides it and I don't know if he was really thinking he would get away with stealing one of the lines
spk_0
Ben comes over Michael Cormier and says come on get you got to give that puck up that's a trophy puck you can't keep it he does look like he is like he thinks he's going to steal this puck
spk_0
Jordan man the puck son the sports balls on you man I don't know I don't I don't think he ever thought he was going to get away with it I'm not sure
spk_0
Yeah, we're talking a little hockey Don day because you're making it the kind of weather where it reminds us hockey seasons not too far off for Wyoming if not here already little jelly today for some of us
spk_0

spk_0
with the diagonal you know half of us will feel it will get the edge of it really but not that we'll catch you edge of it and get this Jake there is a very good possibility next Tuesday morning so put this on your calendar
spk_0
there will be parts of the deep south colder than parts of Wyoming from this thing from this thing. Oh, so let's see you know when they have it you know when they have iguana warnings falling out of trees of Florida.
spk_0
I'm not familiar but now I haven't heard of the guana warning for real for real when it gets cold enough down there they they'll fall out of trees and land on people it's a true story that is not one of those

spk_0
so nice for Halloween everybody enjoyed that I saw kids trick or treating trunk or treating in land or downtown land or they were going down as far as the I could see there were kids like four wide in all kinds of costumes it was so fun when did they invent trunk or treat because when I was a kid you had a you had a work you had a ring doorbells you had a just not walk up to somebody's car and open your bag you got way too easy way to do you know we're we're
spk_0
so we're a softer generation man you know that how many how long a parents been saying you know I walk five miles uphill the school and five miles uphill back now it's mom told me five miles for me to my free candy right to the trunk or trade I'd walk one block and I can't even carry the load yeah I know we know that's what it's like hey thanks Tom
spk_0
all right day weather forecast it's an iguana watch in Florida coming up in a few days it's that cold front coming down out of can I saw that thing I don't know if it's if they want to put polar vortex on it whatever though or cyclone the bomb cyclone I don't think it's but it's a cold front it's a big cold mass it's just gonna skirt
spk_0
well you know me we're gonna feel a touch of it but man don says his head is straight for the southeast and when that gets to Georgia good but you better hang on to your peaches and when it gets to Florida he's gonna be raining cats and dogs and iguanas anything that slithers in Florida is gonna be slithering a lot slower coming up in a few days cowboy state daily weather forecast from Don Dei
spk_0
you never thought you'd see that in the forecast huh usually time says bust out the snow shovel it's gonna do this or this would be a great day to get on the lake
spk_0
rarely do you hear our weather guys say look up heads up falling iguanas today
spk_0
every morning America wakes up to reheated outrage and copy paced commentary yeah I don't follow talking points I follow common sense if that hits a nerve good it means you're still alive
spk_0
no spin no fluff no kumbaya just Jake serving up truth sarcasm and grit stirred by hand and seasoned with reality I don't yell I don't pander I just call it like I see
spk_0
it and trust me there's plenty to call from the capital to the county fair if it's worth talking about in Wyoming Jake's already on it no permission needed no script required
spk_0
the west was built by people who spoke their minds and stood their ground I'm just making sure we don't forget how
spk_0
the Jake show weekdays on cowboy state daily dot com and wherever bold voices still have a mic no apologies no filter no ball
spk_0
this is the cowboy state daily radio network
spk_0
yeah I'm I watched the video again of Jordan Binnington the gold tender
spk_0
who tries to steal a vegkins pocket I really think that he thinks he's gonna get away with it
spk_0
so weird yeah Alex of action can score to his 900th goal nobody's done that in the history of hockey nobody scored that many so the goal itself gonna be historic plus
spk_0
Alex of edgekin apparently I didn't know this but he's made it a point to keep memorabilia you know the stick he used to do whatever or the jersey was if they're very first sweater he wore as a Washington cab
spk_0
like he keeps all these keep sakes these milestones a hockey so of course he's gonna want that park and everybody else wants that park for its monetary value but Alex wants the park
spk_0
and if Jordan Binnington the gold tender that surrender that has stored 900th goals but half the effort in stopping the park that he did in stealing it maybe he wouldn't be the guy who is the goal
spk_0
you gave up the 900 that's that'll be his claim to fame who is the guy who gave up Hank errands 714th home run wasn't it L downing
spk_0
downing didn't try to steal the ball I think it was I'm pretty sure it was L downing maybe yeah what is L downing famous for downing
spk_0
downing allowed Hank or errands record breaking 715th home run the home run the beat Babe Ruse home run record was given up by L downing
spk_0
hell forever be remember so Jordan Binnington you'll at least have that you'll be the goalie who's known as the guy who's surrender to Alex of edgekins 900th goal you won't be the guy who owns the park
spk_0
and has it on his mantle because we all saw you try to steal it
spk_0
he's shoving it in his breezers and the linesman comes over and give me give me the puck quit fooling around
spk_0
most popular baby names for 20 25 are in even though the year isn't done yet we still got two months for babies to get name but new data by the baby center says the most popular baby names in 2025 same as it ever was same as last year for number one and number two for girls and boys
spk_0
is number one boys name most popular care to guess this will be a trivia question for ask Abby later today I always try to give for her a sneak peak to see if she's watching or listening and she never is she misses the opportunity it
spk_0
only Abby you can structively spent your time listening to me early in the show you could at least get one right because I always give you a sneak hint I will ask Abby the most popular girls and boys name for 2025 according to new data compile by some outfit called baby center sounds legit
spk_0
most popular boys name for the year Noah so was it last year most popular girls name for the year Olivia and it's a return that we've seen over the last oh I don't know five six years are returned to some old historic names you know we went through the period where there were made up names
spk_0
names like I mean every girl in Wyoming was named Cheyenne we had just like the coolest names that nobody has we went through a period of that right where every boy girl had to be some cool name or unique spelling of a name and it was original like nobody else would have this name that was so important to
spk_0
parents for the longest time but just recently in the last I don't know three four or five years there's been a trend to return to the old names like Helen for girls and you know just James or Hank or Henry for boys or something like that most popular boys name Noah 2025 of the second year in a row Olivia top the list for girls
spk_0
coming in second edged out but narrowly were names like Amelia and Sophie came in at two and three for girls so yeah kind of old style names Liam and Oliver Oliver's you know an old type of name right Oliver twist Oliver was number three for boys most popular girl names and two
spk_0
twenty twenty five Olivia Amelia Sophia so anything ending in E.O. Any name ending in I.A. Apparently Emma came in fourth Isabella fifth Charlotte
spk_0
Eliana Ellie Aurora and Mia round out the top ten for girls for boys Noah number one as it was the previous year Liam number two Olivia third most popular Elijah I mean we're getting biblical here with Noah and Elijah in the top five
spk_0
Matthew comes in fifth Levi there we go again with the Bible sixth Lucas dropped a few spots to seventh Ezra oh come on Ezra number eight these are all old testament are people like going back to the Bible to name their babies
spk_0
of the top ten I'd three of them are recognizable old testament names Levi Elijah Noah Ezra for them Ezra the eighth most do you know any boy name Ezra I don't I know a lot of Coltons and Colters I know a lot of
spk_0
like a thousand of them but I don't know any Ezra's Asher came in there as ninth most popular and Luca as tenth most popular boys names I will re ask the question for Abby later in the show
spk_0
during the wildly popular ask Abby segment I do want to get into I just don't seem to leave myself enough time for the story because I want to spend time on it but let's let's get into it yeah we do have Jackie Dorothy coming up in a moment the Gillette City Council voted for three Tuesday to repeal an ordinance they had put years ago not not too many
spk_0
years ago they had put a law the council I guess not too many twenty twenty three the council passed a controversial ordinance in Gillette which would make a special crime of hate crimes they had a hate crime ordinance on the books as do other cities as do you know there's hate their federal hate crimes right and whenever I hear this debate over
spk_0
the first thing I think is a crime is a crime a victim is a victim is a victim whether that person was a victim because of their race color religion sex sexual orientation gender identity gender expression ethnicity natural national origin ancestry disability or age it's quite an exhaustive list that is actually the list
spk_0
of things that would constitute a hate crime according to Gillette if you do a crime on just a regular person just and and here's the problem when you throw when you cast such a big net when you throw such huge shade with your umbrella is you've pretty much got everybody in there right I mean I'm I'm just a regular white man
spk_0
majority yet I feel like just the minority when you have a list like this so if somebody does a crime on me somebody comes up and says use S.O.B. and stabs me in the gut and they could get you know second degree aggravated assault whatever they would get I would not be able to seek extra punishment for this dude because I don't qualify
spk_0
I guess in this extensive list of reasons why that guy might have wanted me to stab me in the gut was it because of my race well depends on what race the stab or is did he stab me because of my color my religion my sex my sexual orientation my gender identity my gender expression my ethnicity my national origin my ancestry
spk_0
my nature my nature grandfather came over here on and landed in Ellis Island my disability may it perhaps I have a disability I have a speaking disability everybody knows that or my age yeah I'm getting up there you old people you're the problem all these things qualify as a hate crime in Gillette and this is the problem with these ordinances and these laws is how do you
spk_0
how do you include everybody how you do inclusion D.E.I. in your list or whatever happened to just making a crime a crime a crime if I get stabbed in the gut I would like to think the person that did it is going to be punished prosecuted for the crime not necessarily the intent behind it because I don't want to ask Gillette City Council
spk_0
to get into the mind of the stabber and try to figure out whether why he hated me that's a little too far that's a stretch that I don't need my government doing and that's basically what one of the people said at this Catherine Hunter spoke in favor of repealing the ordinance Catherine
spk_0
and I I think our like minded she says she believed the this whole ordinance as emotionally charged she said the city government should have the author and see I think her quote is and I did reach out and ask Jackson Walker who wrote the story I think Catherine's quote is intended to say city government
spk_0
should not have the authority to define hate or decide which citizens deserve more protection I agree we all all the stabbing victims are equal in the in God's eye and we're all equal in the fact that we got stabbed
spk_0
Catherine continues crimes are already illegal regardless of the victim and enhancing punishments based on thoughts fought crime turns justice into subjective ideology yes it does I don't need to know why the guy stabbed me I don't need to know whether he thinks I'm too old too young to white too loud
spk_0
I don't need to know any of that he stabbed me and here's the problem when you try to add things to the hate crime list which I have already told you what it is twice there's so many things involved the problem is there's always going to be somebody who thinks they should be on the list too Dave Cox came to the meeting in July Tuesday identified himself as a mixed race combat veteran he said he faces racial
spk_0
prejudiced and discrimination for being a member of the military there are those who don't like the idea you served go ask anybody in San Francisco when the troops came home from Vietnam there's some who don't like the idea that you once wore the uniform and pointed your gun at people and maybe you be a victim of the hate crime date a Cox said there should be a stronger hate crime law that it that should include the
spk_0
hate crime law that should include and he adds veterans communist atheists and any other is you can find so if Dave Cox had his way the hate crime and July would include veterans communist atheists gender identity race color legend sex sexual order to add all the other list of the laundry list of already read
spk_0
yeah everybody wants to be in the group of hate crime because there was a reason you got staff again and that that's
spk_0
I don't know I might be the minority opinion there there were people who say that you need the extra punishment for hate crime
spk_0
but Campbell County board member who came to speak Campbell County cemetery board member he came said the hate crime was is appropriate but believes it may have caused more hate and division in the town then Antifa did the year before the hate crime bill was adopted
spk_0
Campbell this Campbell County Dean Vom Muff said being lesbian or gay is your choice but why should you be treated better because of your sexual preference I think what he means to say is why are you more important why are you making a list on the hate crime
spk_0
ordinance and and someone else isn't yeah I think we've all get lost in the whole DEI thing when we say well we want to make everybody equal and inclusive and what we do is if you really want to make
spk_0
lesbian and gays equal and included then you would make them the same as everybody else not elevated to the degree that a crime against them is worse than a crime against somebody who's hetero
spk_0
there should be no difference you should not see color you should not see sexual or gender identity you shouldn't see anything anytime and especially when you're talking about a victim of a crime a victim is a victim is a victim it's a human being with a knife sticking out of their gut
spk_0
and I don't have to know why the dude stabbed the person he should be prosecuted regardless of his motivation we'll be back with Jackie
spk_0
Wyoming is the cowboy state from corner to corner there are so many stories to be told and more and more cowboys and cowgirls are turning to the cowboy state daily news team to keep them in touch with what's happening both locally and in other parts of Wyoming I'm Riley Strand
spk_0
videographer and production assistant for cowboy state daily video news we're proud to bring the most important stories to our viewers every day the stories that start conversations the stories that make us laugh the stories that make us think our experienced journalist at cowboy state daily are crisscrossing the state every day
spk_0
talking to those who know the news best every day host Wendy Cornie talked to the reporters who are covering the topics issues and people that are important to Wyoming and in our daily news cast we bring you those stories
spk_0
to the cowboy state daily video newscast every morning only on cowboy state daily dot com you're listening to the cowboy state daily radio network
spk_0
cowboy state daily show moving along on a Thursday Jackie Dorothy is with us Jackie congrats on the thermopolis boilers you beat up on them Bronx from Burns
spk_0
well we did and even the JVs or as my friends so called them the scrubs got a play yeah the second unit got out there a lot of points lot of fireworks we were talking about that and how it could trigger PTSD type things
spk_0
but that's if you don't know it's coming the word was out that thermopolis was going to be shooting off stuff every time they scored a touchdown and the word was out there we were going to do it often early and often their model is in man you did wow
spk_0
well if anything what came out of that is we had a lot of support and the majority of count is like yeah let's hear those firework yes because every time you hear it it doesn't mean war it means burns is getting scored on in thermopolis is moving on in the postseason head
spk_0
towards state title maybe oh wow I know this Friday they're heading to the big corn so okay that'll be a good one
spk_0
Jackie you're story about yet another use for toilet paper I know most people have an idea what it's used for every day and then around Halloween we have another notion of what it could be used for but what about this under the hood of your car you might find a role
spk_0
of toilet paper what isn't that just the craziest thing as soon as I heard this I was talking to a guy and he mentioned that he had gone to an estate sale and this is what he bought start doing some digging and discover that they're still used and it makes sense
spk_0
it's a regular oil filter is paper anyway but it's flimsy it's really thin toilet paper it's really thick and it's going through all those plies I show the pictures that is just the coolest thing
spk_0
yeah I shared a couple let me share some more yes it does make perfect sense now it needs to fit in the cylinder but if it does yeah it seems like you're getting actually more
spk_0
from a roll of toilet paper than you would from a conventional oil filter oh my goodness I even found this mechanic that was looking into an F first he thought it was silly then afterwards he said you know this is one of those great ideas that we're not going to do because people think it sounds stupid
spk_0
yeah yeah or because there's a pandemic going on you can barely find a role of toilet paper for its intended use but yeah I it makes perfect sense to me after you see yeah your initial reaction is oh that's silly and then even mechanics say but my second reaction is yeah it makes a lot of sense
spk_0
I guess you changed it out every 3000 miles and it cleans up your oil and makes it look great hmm well you sold me I like this now how does it this I have to know how does the story like this make it to your keyboard Jackie
spk_0
well actually you're going to love this when I was studying about the 1908 race and we had a reader talk about it so I called them and instead of including him in the 1908 race I found out about he just mentioned you know how you get to chatty and he mentioned about this estate selling went to
spk_0
so that's how that happened it was definitely one of the most the weirdest rabbit holes I've ever gotten down you always on the lookout for stories I can't wait to say daily readers can thank their lucky stars that Jackie Dorothy is so easily distracted when she's doing a story or interviewing somebody from a story and she's always listening and she you're probably one of those who follows up saying wait a minute wait a minute you said a toilet paper yeah so let's talk about the original story
spk_0
which is this 1908 race what's what's this all about Jackie so apparently what happened is that auto races and at the time they were calling them automobile list you think about it it was 12 years that they had been doing races that's it very new sport and they decided they being race organizers in Europe that they were going to race from New York City to Paris
spk_0
and they were going to do it in the winter with no road because they wanted to go up to the barren straight and drive across that was the plan you can imagine the disaster this was 13 cars I believe it was originally entered six actually only made it to the starting line and three
spk_0
minutes a majority were lost just getting there my car can't even get to the starting line although have you ever seen like some old like the earliest film of these old cars 1910 through 20s and and the roads they had to drive on compared to today and I'm amazed they did it like kind of good like the tires and
spk_0
like they drove on stuff you and I would not even kids we would look at it and say I wouldn't take a rental down that thing and they that was just the regular road in that those cars did it I'm impressed with the engineering
spk_0
I never heard of this race and it's like how did we not hear about it right right just and Wyoming was part of the race and that was what I concentrated on was that section and what was fun to read is that the Thomas
spk_0
flyer which was the winner America one yay yeah but they entered like three or four days before the race started America
spk_0
wasn't even going to have a car in this race and at the last minute they did it and then they
spk_0
the other competitors and countries complained because our American mechanic is the one that carried the day
spk_0
they said that's a new car that he drove across the finish line
spk_0
there did as they went there are no roads there was absolutely there's places when they were doing it
spk_0
on prairie yeah railroad tracks yeah it was amazing race I'm sure it did give us our roads by the way
spk_0
they what they got us our roads because America Wyoming looked at it and said we need roads for these
spk_0
people and roads the good roads clubs started of that year and it just started growing from there
spk_0
I did hear about that in fact that I read years ago I remember that the only reason I even knew about this race a
spk_0
little bit was because it was the impetus to get roads because when you have a automobile enthusiast
spk_0
or what automobile is I love that because you think about the relatively new invention primarily people
spk_0
who's still getting around on their horse and they looked at these automobile guys as truly
spk_0
specialist in another area like they even knew how to drive it and wanted to drive it fast yeah
spk_0
they were automobiles they were a different kind of people now now anyone who wants to drive fast
spk_0
just known as a Wyomingite or a Montana but yeah that's pretty good well what was really cool is that
spk_0
they talked about them coming into Cheyenne and he was driving over 70 miles per hour as he drove in
spk_0
no this car back then yes he was able to I mean that's why they said something about that mechanic
spk_0
and they what I loved is the description because it was such a huge deal there was even that movie crew
spk_0
that came from Denver to film it and they ran it as the extra at all the theaters you know how they did
spk_0
the news the news yes yep so they would have that running when you went to go to see the movies but
spk_0
they said it wasn't a parade that they were expecting you had all these people from Cheyenne Cheyenne
spk_0
so they called them and they're waiting there for this car and 17th Street and it comes roaring in
spk_0
they said it was a race it wasn't a parade yeah they had escorts come all the way from Denver and
spk_0
all the Cheyenne and these cars are equivalent of half up to half a million dollars in today's money
spk_0
so it really was I'm looking at some photos um is this the oh yeah this uh one of these cars this
spk_0
one looks pretty souped up got chains on the tires let me share this one but I could see the objection
spk_0
when they roll into France France by the way makes uh one of the places to make a claim towards
spk_0
and vending the automobile now we can go down that rabbit hole who really made the first one but
spk_0
yeah this uh I would I would call it cheating till when you start out with one junky car just
spk_0
days notice and then you got this whiz bang mechanic who like rebuilds it on the fly oh man
spk_0
well it wasn't quite junky what's it Thomas flyer did is it was a custom car that had been ordered
spk_0
and when they decide they wanted to do the race they grabbed the custom car and said this guy
spk_0
can have his later we're gonna enter this one you got to read actually in Reno Nevada you can go see
spk_0
it today oh man a car enthusiast discovered it rescued it and got the driver just
spk_0
verified that that was the car next time I'm on Reno uh if I have any money left after the
spk_0
casino as I will check this car out Jackie Dorothy Wyoming history how Wyoming almost derailed the
spk_0
great auto race of 1908 if you thought driving the bearing straight was tough road nothing compared
spk_0
to Wyoming and then toilet paper for an oil filter yeah might make perfect sense thank you Jackie
spk_0
thank you we got to hit the news break we'll be right back after news
spk_0
so
spk_0
cowboys stay daily show it's Thursday that means smart kinds should be here let me check
spk_0
quick sweep of the zoom room let's check the green room or we've been holding mark and he is
spk_0
he's totally trashed it like all these rock stars yeah the green room is ruined he's drank all the
spk_0
complimentary beer yeah terrible aren't I you're a high impact guest brother uh definitely
spk_0
your story about uh this this big story of the day Wyoming cows go high tech electronic
spk_0
collars virtual offense and we've all seen this I think with dogs we know the invisible barriers
spk_0
yeah it's gotten commonplace with dogs yeah yeah um I think uh if I ever had the occasion too
spk_0
if I had dog and I had yard and I had all those things I would probably go that way um
spk_0
yeah I guess it's easier than building the fence yeah in that instance yeah
spk_0
yeah um but can it go can you upscaled to such a big degree with a cow thing I at first
spk_0
wanted to just sort of laugh at this story having worked with some with cows um with bovine and knowing
spk_0
how they think or rather how they don't think this cows is like don't cows is dumb there are some
spk_0
of the dumbest animals what they even learn from this thing maybe um but you know what sold me is
spk_0
you mentioned in this article about I didn't even think about it it would eliminate the need for
spk_0
all this fencing or for a lot of fencing and that's good for wildlife yeah I don't yeah I think it's
spk_0
you know just stress I don't think we're ever going to 100% go that way like the one guy said
spk_0
people are going to still want perimeter fences around their property you know to to you know
spk_0
the that demarcation zone between two ranches or between the ranch and the national forest
spk_0
or wherever the property line might be but uh yeah and internal internally you know
spk_0
pasture to pasture it could be uh you know it's it's working well for well for those ranches and
spk_0
shared and the pilot program they've launched over there you know and I don't think I don't think
spk_0
this technology with cows is really horribly new either it's just this where we were kind of you
spk_0
know dipping our toe in the water here in Wyoming and seeing where it goes but uh yeah I I think
spk_0
I think we saved a save we're going to see more of it you know what whether you know it'll
spk_0
all virtual fencing will completely replace you know uh poor suckers out there building barbed wire
spk_0
probably not but it could it could make a difference yeah and you're right for the wildlife it could
spk_0
that could be huge for wildlife I like to benefit to wildlife removing those barriers when they're
spk_0
migrating or trying to get to water daily trips that's cool um there are limitations with this
spk_0
tech though it's just not gonna work in some areas yeah if you know the like they said the
spk_0
rougher the topography the more towers are going to need so at what point does it become a game
spk_0
of diminishing returns um you know but but as I'm sure I know and I'm sure you know building
spk_0
fence in rough terrain is not exactly a picnic yeah yeah yeah and a lot of what a lot of what
spk_0
ranchers find themselves doing it in uh in summer and spring in summer is moving the cows constantly
spk_0
after they eat down a certain area you want to move to another pattern that seems like it's so
spk_0
easy like you just get on the app and you can you say this is the red zone like I don't want the
spk_0
cows here I want them here and it's so easy it would be really easy to do that uh here's another
spk_0
downside you bring up in this story and every thought of this is once you teach the cows like don't
spk_0
go there you're gonna get zapped then how do you go gather in the fall because the cows would be like
spk_0
I'm afraid to get into anytime you go to move them they'll be like I'm getting zapped that that
spk_0
that could could be it and I'm you know I'm sure there's an answer for that and as you know these
spk_0
folks in in Sheridan County use it more uh you know game in fish is leading us symposium on the
spk_0
on it in Gillette here so might be interesting to go to that and see what people have to say
spk_0
and that would be a question to raise well you know did they become so acclimated to one area
spk_0
and having that negative reinforcement in some cases does that backfire on you you know
spk_0
and just see what people who've actually used this system what they have to say about that
spk_0
and there uh there's a lot of reasons to find fault with this pilot program which marquins
spk_0
explained was used in Sheridan County and another one is cost now I didn't think it was terribly
spk_0
like I'm a picture in this and I'm like oh no it's gonna be super expensive the collars are like
spk_0
70 bucks a shot the towers are 4500 I mean it's it's expensive but it's bad then again so it's
spk_0
fencing yeah yeah yeah I mean fencing can get into the again depending on where you're building it
spk_0
and how intensive it gets I can get into the 20k per mile range yeah you know so so there's no
spk_0
the bad news is there's no good cheap either way you're gonna spend money
spk_0
and a lot of it plus the gloves and shirts you go through making bar wire man oh that stuff
spk_0
is nice trust trust trust me I know oh yeah nasty stuff um okay well interesting story now did you
spk_0
don't I don't think you mentioned in in the story but it made me think of uh out of other
spk_0
stockmen cattlemen who are pretty resistant towards tech when it comes to the electronic ear tag
spk_0
this seems to be a step in that direction a little bit um I think the problem with that is that
spk_0
it was a mandate yeah it was seen as a bureaucratic form of control this is more hey if you want to
spk_0
do it do it and your ears uh this is more of a practical boots on the ground day-to-day working
spk_0
tool it's not yeah the ear tags uh kind of set you know set some people's teeth on edge because that
spk_0
that you know the perception was oh well the government's telling us to do this and you know what
spk_0
yeah and and so that day you know there was some resentment and push back there but I don't
spk_0
think this is that this is hey here's a cool to cool new technology you want to try it yeah so
spk_0
okay and some guys some guys this might go or some ranchers some ladies in general and
spk_0
like uh nah Bob wire fences work for us for the past 100 years we're not changing and that's fine
spk_0
yeah you know yeah so yeah so mark your ears might have perked up when you heard Jen
spk_0
coaker say the other day she was talking about um perhaps a search and rescue effort to
spk_0
for a 50 something year old cold case up in misty moon lake how could divers ever work in those
spk_0
conditions how could uh even tech today penetrate into these cold water how about a search and rescue
spk_0
trained otter from Florida Jen told me that I'm like no way yeah it makes sense it makes sense in
spk_0
certain conditions I mean obviously you know the the body they recovered uh just recently out of
spk_0
Jackson Lake that was for her 420 feet down so that's probably outside of our otters diving range
spk_0
but you're right and and shallower water and under certain conditions yeah they'd probably be fine
spk_0
because you know they're you know they're they're uh a little water predators I think you know one
spk_0
guy talked to previously called them water wolves you know because that's what they are they're
spk_0
aquatic predators so I mean they're they're built to dive and look for things and smell things under
spk_0
water so it only makes sense that they'd be they'd be great for a cadaver you know detection in those
spk_0
cases where you know the location of someone sadly the rescuer just can't find them and just can't
spk_0
bring closure to their loved ones maybe the otter could pitch in and help in those in those cases
spk_0
you talked to some law enforcement of Wyoming and they're like well if we had one you know we
spk_0
wouldn't discount it but we're not going to go fly the Florida out of here no no or they said
spk_0
general you're not going to have like like some uh you know police departments in sheriff's offices
spk_0
have canine units where they have dedicated staff and the dog is essentially a member of the staff
spk_0
they wouldn't have an otter unit you know they they said you know the the project
spk_0
way to do it and I think this is the way they do it in Florida is you have a person who is an
spk_0
otter handler and they just do contract work for them and and that makes sense it's like you know
spk_0
yeah how was the sheriff's office in Wyoming gonna you know dedicate a full-time position to otter
spk_0
trainer and the salary and then you have to have the habitat for the otter to live in I mean
spk_0
for something that you might use maybe a couple times a year if that it just makes a lot more
spk_0
sensitive a private party has a trained otter uh the sheriff's department can call them and say hey
spk_0
uh you know we need the otter you know come help us you know you would contract that out like
spk_0
tech support to India you know yeah exactly like that like what yeah though you have otter will travel
spk_0
it would just have to be yeah one special guy who's got an otter man I know this guy
spk_0
you know the you know to kind of get off track a little bit here but you know there's those weird
spk_0
animals that are in between like people say what if a raccoon is tearing up my house well city
spk_0
animal control is gonna go that's a wild animal we don't handle that game and fish is gonna go
spk_0
that's a non-game animal first and secondly we're not gonna deploy an entire team for a raccoon
spk_0
so they're in this weird grazel where nobody wants to touch them what you have in well
spk_0
mean because you have critter catchers people who are trained and certified in in contract and they
spk_0
want to contract basis they will come catch things like skunks and raccoons and autumn maybe if an
spk_0
otter was loosened down they come get the otter you know so so they're definitely is a you know a
spk_0
niche market for people that are that are specialized to do contract work with you know smaller critters
spk_0
or getting uh uh birds off uh runway you know you hire a border cally or that falconer um and
spk_0
yeah these are all like one off you would not keep a otter you know on your staff give them a
spk_0
little badge out you'd use that thing like once every 10 years man meanwhile he's he's on the salary
spk_0
yeah yeah exactly I see that um I was uh interested in the I was surprised maybe a little bit to see
spk_0
the uh attacks on ammunition do we talk about this we did yeah we talked about that at length on
spk_0
Tuesday and I I talked to one of your guys in this story who are just on a total side track um who
spk_0
runs that shooting rate the auto road shooting range is that right yeah that's a cool guy um yeah we
spk_0
had a great discussion we talked about what he's doing there the whole action pistol action shooting
spk_0
thing is so neat um so that was a chance for a story to become another story it was a cool guy
spk_0
yeah um definitely had a nice chat with him yesterday uh one story we haven't had time to get to but um
spk_0
I think we all know this that whenever the time changes this time of year we just did the clocks back um
spk_0
it makes for darkness when there wasn't darkness and we see numbers go up about uh critters hit on
spk_0
the road to me for sure no that that that's interesting and it tracks yeah you know I mean anecdotally
spk_0
or logically it does track yeah and and there was a group that did a nationwide study you know kind
spk_0
of took a 50,000 foot view and they said I think they said 16% it jumps by the overall nationwide
spk_0
rate of deer they focused on one species deer for the entire nation yeah and they said 16% jump
spk_0
and that makes sense now again there's nothing but there's was no there has been no study the
spk_0
specific to Wyoming but a couple things we know in Wyoming is number one is Mule deer the far
spk_0
and away the number one animal get the number one big game animal getting hit in Wyoming is Mule
spk_0
deer and number two at least anecdotally people can say yeah we do see it that there does seem to be
spk_0
a bigger rate of road kill you know in that when the time change because more like I said more people
spk_0
those commuting times are heating when it's dark and then you get late enough in the year and people
spk_0
are driving or working the day it's dark both ways are driving to work in the dark and from work in
spk_0
the dark and you know a lot of communities either even if you live in town in Wyoming you know
spk_0
there's a lot of communities where you're still going to see deer on the road so it adds up
spk_0
yeah the increase in Mule deer mortality because of time change darkness makes total sense
spk_0
then you throw on the kicker and that's these animals in rut and migration coincide with these
spk_0
times yeah you've got the migration starting to my gracious is starting to happen and then rut you know
spk_0
when you know the the bucks just get dumb you know yeah you know can't kind of like you and I were
spk_0
when we were young and you walk into a room full of pretty girls you just you know your brain quits
spk_0
functioning lose on a melody to speak yeah the same thing is same thing with these boulders but
spk_0
and I think that's why why a lot of you know with deer anyway we don't Mule deer especially
spk_0
we don't see hunting seasons that go into the rut yeah because it just be you know it might
spk_0
might give the hunters an unfurred value because the bucks are distracted and now Mule deer were
spk_0
particularly studied here deer were to study in this but yeah you know the difference I find with
spk_0
them and maybe other animals like a deer in an elk is the deer are more likely to do dumb things
spk_0
by the road like run across red deer yeah that's your question I don't know into the highway
spk_0
where yeah I don't know I don't know kind of stand elk are bigger and they don't seem to as much
spk_0
bolt onto the highway as a deer yeah so you're like what did that deer just come from yeah that
spk_0
that's that might be an interesting thing to look into that could be some kind of behavioral
spk_0
distance behavioral distinction like just how they evolved to react to predators differently
spk_0
yeah yeah because it all you know with animals like that a lot of it boils down to predator
spk_0
any of these behaviors you see it's how they evolved to evade or make things tougher for predators you
spk_0
know I like and I'm just bitmulling here but be interested you talk to a biologist and ask him that
spk_0
yeah yeah true enough all right all right hey man thanks so much have a great weekend
spk_0
hey you too mark kinds cowboy state daily a story about fire arms amuletacks we talked about that
spk_0
on Tuesday actually the pitman Robertson wildlife restoration act how that factors into
spk_0
taxing bullets and guns and what does that benefit also an increase in meal deer mortality is noted
spk_0
miss a fact statistical fact that we see more of it when the clock changes because times are dark
spk_0
and what about the high-tech ranchers using collars on their cows to keep the cows fenced in when
spk_0
you don't see the fence only the cow knows very interesting stuff mark out stories in the cowboy
spk_0
state daily we'll take a quick break come back with this day in history it's November 6th by the
spk_0
way we'll do it right after this we're all just trying to keep things running for those who rely on us
spk_0
that's why we don't have time to be sick with the flu
spk_0
we don't have time for delays we don't have time for spells
spk_0
next we don't have time for setback that's be real getting the flu shot helps you fight the flu
spk_0
hit a flu shot for yourself and those around you too
spk_0
this is the cowboy state daily radio network
spk_0
yeah it's a Thursday cowboy state daily show it's also November 6th these are the things that
spk_0
happen on this day in history primarily Wyoming that will if there were other significant events
spk_0
that affected Wyoming indirectly we'll hit those 1813 for instance congress the congress of
spk_0
Cholpengu declares Mexico independence of Spain 1813 on this day I don't think that was the
spk_0
final decider the independence from Spain is it celebrated this day I know single
spk_0
demil does not mean a lot to Mexico they rather celebrate the country's independence from
spk_0
Spain is this the official day or this independence from Spain
spk_0
uh mix can more of independence
spk_0
so uh uh
spk_0
hmm a treaty will sign dog is 24th 1821 yeah I don't know
spk_0
that might be more research and I'm prepared to dive into today 1860 this day Abraham Lincoln
spk_0
elected president this we're still in that period where we're getting a lot of first Tuesday in
spk_0
November election stories 1868 red clouds war would end by treaty although by this day did

appointed as the sixth territorial governor of Wyoming pre-statehood 1888 Benjamin Harrison

spk_0
have the distinct distinctive first name it seems um Benjamin me today we would just say
spk_0
president Ben right but not in 1888 1889 Wyoming's constitution was adopted the Wyoming
spk_0
constitution unusual for a state constitution in that is it has survived with amendments yes

spk_0
replaced their original state constitutions not so with Wyoming including the the female suffrage

national stories and international actually a story out of Sydney last time i checked that's in

all straya will also look into you win a county voters who defeated a tax they said they didn't
spk_0
know did not want to tax themselves for a new community swimming pool and a bunch of other stuff
spk_0
and we'll look at the very controversial thing regarding a deep fakes artificial intelligence when
spk_0
it comes to well i don't want to give it away i think it's a mind vendor a little bit and we'll
spk_0
just scratch that topic and we'll dive deep tomorrow and we have a specialist on actually
spk_0
in the world of artificial intelligence it's fascinating it just occurred to me because of a
spk_0
story that's in the cowboy state daily you'll see we'll we'll do that all that stuff coming up after
spk_0
this quick break
spk_0
by the scan dot org
spk_0
yeah i should add to the list of things i got to do in town today a haircut oh man i'm way
spk_0
overdue way overdue cowboy state daily show continues ask gaby coming up next hour we'll talk to
spk_0
him in a gene as well we got still a lot to go yet on the Thursday edition so you're gonna want
spk_0
to stick around jelly roll billboard is reporting that jelly roll
spk_0
was uh treated thrown out of a store treated like a criminal in Sydney, Australia you know jelly roll
spk_0
right he is the i'm reluctant to call him a he's not a country music singer but he does have
spk_0
songs in country music he's not really a rapper but he sounds more like a rapper than a you know
spk_0
jelly roll it's hard to define his music but he's pretty famous uh if you heard him sing
spk_0
mmm you might recognize him but more so if you saw him um you know jelly roll by the face tattoos
spk_0
basically i mean if he walked down the street in ten sleep Wyoming you would say that's jelly roll
spk_0
everybody would know him um he's also well you may not recognize him because he's lost to
spk_0
ton of weight apparently um he's uh need a favor as one of his songs son of a sinner
spk_0
big song both those songs big hits uh three cmt music awards in 2023 billboards emerging artists list
spk_0
uh top 25 emerging i mean on and on but jelly roll says he was treated like a criminal in Sydney
spk_0
Australia where he was removed from a Louis Vuitton store and i'm not surprised because if you don't
spk_0
recognize jelly roll for who he is you recognize him for a potential criminal totally um it's the face
spk_0
tattoos dude and i know now you're a guy who could walk into the Louis Vuitton store in Sydney
spk_0
Australia and buy the whole joint probably but if people didn't know that you look like a criminal
spk_0
the face tattoos the he's got the tear drop thing going on which is like prison right when you
spk_0
have the tear drop tattoo that means you're in a gang or you're in prison or something i don't know
spk_0
but he does look he does look like a potential felon
spk_0
so in Sydney Australia some some cashier in the Louis Vuitton store
spk_0
did not recognize jelly rolls jelly roll had security walk him out and jelly roll just had to say
spk_0
quote legitimately uh they treated us like we were finna rob that place which if you're not
spk_0
hip with the lingo means like we were gonna rob that place finna is the new merge of two words being
spk_0
the southern preferred word for going to meaning fixing to we were fixing to rob that place or we
spk_0
were gonna rob that place when you jam those two words together you get finna so yeah jelly rolls like
spk_0
we were disrespect it legitimately treated like we were finna rob that place and I can you know
spk_0
the next part of the story is obviously right he's got to go back in there with Richard Gare
spk_0
and do the pretty woman on him you know do you know who I am he's got to go back to the
spk_0
had to be some really snooty cashier can you imagine to get the job as a Louis Vuitton cashier
spk_0
you've got to be you have to give the impression of upper crust i don't know if you're really
spk_0
upper crust or you would not be running the cash register at Louis Vuitton you would be shopping
spk_0
but you've got to give off that that vibe you know you got to be vibe and like I am so stuck up
spk_0
I'm looking down on you even though I'm working here at the Louis Vuitton store and you're buying
spk_0
like three pieces I'm still looking down on you that's the kind of person you need and this kind
spk_0
of person with all the attitude that she I'll say she could probably muster said who's this
spk_0
when jelly roll walks in who's who's this disgusting thing with ink on his face these tattoos on
spk_0
his face security and security throws out jelly roll a guy who seriously could have bought the
spk_0
whole store ten times over this happened in somewhere in Sydney Australia at the Louis Vuitton
spk_0
store but it is totally the pretty woman scenario right like this customer couldn't possibly
spk_0
afford anything in here and I'm having them tossed and it's jelly roll
spk_0
um
spk_0
did I now I forget if I even took my final break this hour I get sidetracked I think we did right we
spk_0
yeah we took our final break this hour okay just double checking I need another break already
spk_0
other story I wanted to get to that I think is very interesting riddle me this riddler
spk_0
are you really a perv well you are a perv but can we put you in prison if you have
spk_0
child porn images on your phone but none of the images on your phone are real children and this
spk_0
I don't know why I thought of this but I did because we're talking about AI all the time
spk_0
and these deep fakes and this Dale killing backstory that came out yesterday
spk_0
Casper man gets 13 to 16 years in prison he had 30,000 child porn images on his phone the 49 year old
spk_0
um he was asking for he and his lawyer and his wife he's married we're asking for leniency and the judge
spk_0
Kerry Johnson came down with a swift boot of justice and Matthew Leslie was sentenced to 13 to 16
spk_0
years in prison what he had was thousands 30,000 or more images of child porn that included
spk_0
and uh trigger alert kids earmuffs included beastiality and sadomasochism and judge Johnson said uh
spk_0
you know what you're getting a pretty good deal with the prison term no way are we gonna consider
spk_0
house arrest is wife asked for house arrest and judge Johnson said from what I see of the photos
spk_0
on your phone no way in fact the judge took a plea deal in part so a jury wouldn't that not
spk_0
have to see the photos on this phone um the judge uh the judge and the prosecutor mentioned shocking
spk_0
photos uh judge in fact the prosecutor said judge no one has to be told it's wrong to
spk_0
download images of children tied to a table and abused by animals disgusting
spk_0
yes, sourdemy of infants all kinds of just horrible horrible photos
spk_0
so uh yeah 13 to 16 years in prison but it got me thinking what is the actual law you're breaking
spk_0
and why are we punishing you are we are you breaking the law are we punishing you because
spk_0
you're pervy or because the images involve children that were put in these scenarios like who we
spk_0
would really love to get are the people that are taking these photos and videos right anybody who is
spk_0
you got a child or a minor who is coercing them forcing them whatever however they got into some
spk_0
studio or got in front of a camera lens whoever took these photos and made the kids be in them
spk_0
that's the one we'd love to string up by their toes but what if there was no children involved
spk_0
in child porn what if we get to the point where and we're fast approaching this point where all
spk_0
pornography much less child porn was entered into by robot by deep fix by someone who did not
spk_0
does not exist what if you uh what if the next perve down the line the next 49 year old burr from
spk_0
Casper has on his phone thousands of photos of child porn but there are no children involved
spk_0
everyone depicted in the photos or videos of said perves phone is fake is that still a crime it's
spk_0
depravity at its worst it's disgusting but is there a victim that to me is whoa my mind blown had
spk_0
exploded I can't get my head around it I mean is that to each his own like okay that's pretty pervy
spk_0
but if his wife is okay with it whatever or is it a crime can a prosecutor attorney say
spk_0
it's still sick yes it is it's still wrong um inherently I feel we all feel it's wrong
spk_0
but if no real human being if no real children were used of all the characters depicted in a
spk_0
disgusting porn scene are all deep fakes where's the crime where's the victim it is there a crime
spk_0
I clear McFarland could probably better answer that because it probably is a crime and probably
spk_0
we have decided as humanity civilized humans that we don't obviously we don't engage in sexual acts
spk_0
with a minor as an adult that is for sure a crime but do we take any pleasure in seeing it if it
spk_0
is not real I don't know I don't know if somebody has a cartoon of this let's say it's just
spk_0
absolute cartoon stick drawings or a cartoon is that prosecutable and then the next step
spk_0
taking a step further if it's all fake if it's all AI generated material
spk_0
as a crime been committed is it a we have a guest on tomorrow that deals with this kind of stuff
spk_0
and it will be very interesting we'll have a chat with him about it so don't miss tomorrow's show
spk_0
that is going to be is that Adam I think yeah Adam Hartage is going to be on the show he's a
spk_0
former CIA ops guy he's involved with today's artificial intelligence and so he's perfect like
spk_0
he's done CIA he's done law enforcement he's AI he's all that and I don't know we'll just shoot
spk_0
that out there was not why we're going to have him on we're going to actually talk about
spk_0
how this generation now the alpha generation growing up how it's going to be so incumbent on them
spk_0
to make guard rails for AI this generation is growing up with it now it's them we're going to
spk_0
entrust with artificial intelligence to making sure that robots don't kill us that's what we're
spk_0
going to talk to Adam Hartage about tomorrow but I will throw that out there for him
spk_0
just because I think it's a conundrum um yeah we all we have a jam pack show tomorrow a lot of
spk_0

spk_0
see what Abby knows about being the teenager she was just a teenager not long ago so she should
spk_0

spk_0

spk_0
well the cat i mean her story about the cat is huge
spk_0
the feel good story about the dog is the story of the day oh my goodness scotch
spk_0
scotch what becky what is his name he's like sort of new i still have in met scott
spk_0
we haven't had him on the show yet but we got to get him
spk_0
scot wrote the story squat sh shwebecky yeah
spk_0
scot shwebecky if i'm saying his name right his story about the dash home that somehow survived
spk_0
the survived the car wreck a car that rolled three times the dash owned chouy survived that
spk_0
and then survived the week running up and down interstate 80 and didn't get hit didn't get carried away
spk_0
by a gold meagle didn't get eaten by a coyote and that dog now is thanks to a couple of sharp
spk_0
wide people and a microchip and a fed eggs drive the dogs now um is way back to owner back where he
spk_0
belongs by far that story is resonating with readers of cowboy state daily three thousand six hundred
spk_0
impressions sixty seven comments 194 shares on facebook and michelle sums it up
spk_0
she writes so nice to read a positive story she also added the dash hounds by the way
spk_0
f y i are tougher than they look um according to michelle
spk_0
what did know that she said the female dash hound once survived on a large island off of
spk_0
australia in a remote portion of the island for five hundred days after was found alive
spk_0
so dash hounds probably can't run very fast but they're apparently pretty tough little critters
spk_0
when you think Renee you think a dash hound stands a chance a week out there in the Wyoming wild
spk_0
with winter coming up right winner interstate 80 traffic coyotes eagles uh yeah a little
spk_0
dash hound but that story about the dash hounds doing really well today and your story about the cat
spk_0
is uh got some hearts tugging on some heartstrings with the exception of one dude who says
spk_0
feral cats kill birds so we can kill them i saw that i was like dude man uh he wrote that on facebook
spk_0
and yeah he was not well received but this cat Renee oh my goodness who would try to hurt a cat
spk_0
and i'm so glad we had the the Fabian Linda Fabian is their name um and we had a vet
spk_0
um a lot of people came together to save this cat lucky the cat
spk_0
i i think he's pretty unlucky though in that go in the first place getting hit with a blow dart and a
spk_0
bullet uh it just goes to show the the world and out of friendly place to the homeless uh population
spk_0
even if they're very yeah this one's cute the orange cat but yeah if it wasn't for Linda
spk_0
Fabian who's kind of looking out for these uh wheatland area rural cats you'll throw them food
spk_0
every once in a while and she noticed one limping but that wasn't even lucky that was another one
spk_0
um right it was a different one and and i should clarify i probably should have made this point
spk_0
in the story but what they're doing actually is they're trying to get all these feral cats rounded
spk_0
and neutered to try to reduce the problem yeah uh and so this particular cat was rounded up as part
spk_0
of that effort and his wound was discovered you know as they were checking the seas this cat been
spk_0
neutered uh do we need to take it to the vet to get that done uh they found that wound and his side
spk_0
and decided to take him in and look at that and that turned out to be a much bigger deal than they
spk_0
thought uh the vet thought that it looked like it was healing it might not even need stitches uh
spk_0
until he did an x-ray and saw that what that little tiny pencil hole uh it was a size of a pencil
spk_0
hole uh but what it was hiding was a big like a five inch blowdark that had been uh just basically
spk_0
shoved inside of this cat um yeah so yeah big thanks to
spk_0
lindifabian who first noticed big thanks to uh this critters ink um and that is uh
spk_0
lucinski um megan lucinski who uh is trying to is in on the effort to get these feral cats at least
spk_0
fixed so they don't make more feral cats and how about this vet who could have said you know
spk_0
what there's no way this cat's gonna survive a surgery like that five inch long blowdark in it
spk_0
but he said what the heck on on his dime I assume on the vet's dime and time uh spent over an hour
spk_0
in surgery and they got it out this cat is uh could be adoptable normally they would just you know
spk_0
catch it alter it neuter it whatever and then send it back into the wild but this one lucky's got
spk_0
a special story attached to it if he stops his meanness they say he's not real nice
spk_0
who yeah uh you know the these cats have not been socialized this is an adult cat he's grown up wild
spk_0
he's he's a tiny little lion um basically in your living room kind of thing uh so you know I don't
spk_0
I don't it's hard to socialize them once they've reached that stage where there are adults um
spk_0
it may be over time you know that'll change uh cats have been domesticated for a long time so
spk_0
they do have that as part of their makeup as well uh but yeah for right now he's he's kind of
spk_0
surly but I can you blame him I mean you know he's been shot at he's had an arrow shot inside of him
spk_0
yeah human his encounters with humans haven't exactly been the nicest in the world necessarily
spk_0
who knows what else has happened to this poor cat that we just don't you know there's no evidence
spk_0
left behind uh maybe he's been kicked and thrown around a little too uh yeah I can't blame him for
spk_0
being a little salty but yeah I could I could get him uh turned around I think although I'm not
spk_0
volunteering but I just takes patience I am a cat whisper if you didn't know oh okay you want
spk_0
my cats yeah how many you got you got cats to yes they were dumped on me by my ex
spk_0
but you know well I don't know I got the one I'm still getting used to that but I do I do appreciate
spk_0
the way cats retain all those instincts you know when you look at dash the dash out and how far
spk_0
remove that is from a wolf I mean I'll that dash out survived the week in Wyoming but that's
spk_0
you know statistical improbability and then you look at cats and cats are essentially the wild cat
spk_0
they've always been it's amazing yeah they're like the little lion in your living room kind of thing
spk_0
totally that you know the end uh yeah I don't know that we've really tamed them or anything so much
spk_0
just you know if they learn to fit in with us yeah who's training who when any cat roller tell you
spk_0
that oh who who's taming who yeah um I have managed to get the gray cat uh I I can tell her to come on
spk_0
and she'll leave the room that I'm trying to close the door on man it's to do that much you know
spk_0
which I think pretty impressive for a cat that's something yes yeah because cats do what they want on
spk_0
their time you know it starts out with all right we're gonna have some rules you're not allowed
spk_0
on the furniture okay you're allowed on the furniture but you're not allowed on the kitchen
spk_0
counter okay you're allowed on the kitchen counter but not when I'm cooking uh you just make
spk_0
concessions all day long for the cat that's what I have a little squirt gun for
spk_0
oh yeah it's on the counter it gets wet got you better than a world dirt um yeah well yeah I don't
spk_0
want to hurt them or any but Jake have you ever seen as you can train cats actually there's this
spk_0
pair of ladies and they have trained the cats to do amazing things yeah you can train them you just
spk_0
you have to tap into their intrinsic motivations which are much different than a dogs uh they just
spk_0
they they don't respond to the same things no they don't and that's the difference between dog owners
spk_0
cat owners I mean dogs are just so happy to please happy to see you everything about the dogs life
spk_0
is like oh I'm just so happy tail wagon for no reason cats are like different uh to reach them
spk_0
but I have seen them trained you're right I have seen it done it has to be done a different way
spk_0
perhaps with food rewards maybe a little Dubai chocolate but we already talked about that
spk_0
I want to talk about this rocket feller home I have not seen this I really am interested in
spk_0
checking it out looks so cool but um you in this in this listing you mentioned 12.9 million
spk_0
dollar listing it's always Renee Jean who's got these fancy pieces of real estate bougie piece
spk_0
that you and I can now possibly afford but we love to live through the you know and breed it and
spk_0
just pretend uh but in this case you really do bring a ton of history and how the rocket fellers
spk_0
played into Jackson Hole teetan counting this whole area is really great story yeah I mean
spk_0
you know like every home in Jackson Hole this this mansion it is a mansion it's 8,000 square feet
spk_0
in the main house with seven bedrooms on sweet bathroom you know it's they're on sweet bedrooms
spk_0
so called what does that mean it means you got a sitting room it means you've got your own
spk_0
personal bathroom it means you got you know a lot of space for your stuff some of them have
spk_0
kitchenettes so you know if you're not feeling too sociable you can just hang in your room the whole
spk_0
time you're there with your grand teetan views in the window uh but that's like a lot of places in
spk_0
Jackson though I mean you know posh places in Jackson are almost a cliche right yeah uh but so I
spk_0
thought what makes this place special really though is this tie to history the rocket fellers
spk_0
I don't think many people know just how intertwined the rocket feller family history is with
spk_0
Wyoming and Jackson Hole and in the 1920s uh rocket feller was on vacation in Jackson Hole he was
spk_0
visiting uh Horace Albright then Superintendent of Yellowstone National Park was taking him around
spk_0
now I think it's interesting that Albright had been ordered not to raise his concerns about development
spk_0
south of the park with Rockefeller Rockefellers on vacation leave the man alone don't be asking him
spk_0
you know you're crazy idea about buying up all the land don't be talking to him about that uh but
spk_0
so he he did it in a smart way though bringing Rockefeller around his way of thinking he just said hey
spk_0
would you like to see something amazing uh would you like to see you know I'll take you down here to
spk_0
the south of the park and and show you the valley and while Rockefeller's there in the valley he is
spk_0
seeing for himself these questionable developments dilapidated structures where people tried to
spk_0
you know make a farm and failed and have left behind these derelicts uh and Rockefeller himself
spk_0
is like all the sudden concerned about all this development in the valley so it was a conversation
spk_0
starter exactly like Albright was or uh yeah Horace was hoping and you know the rest is kind of
spk_0
history the next year Rockefeller forms a company the snake river land company to buy up these
spk_0
properties and the value valley to save it from over development to you know stop people from putting
spk_0
in their latest bright idea that then fails and leaves you know a pilot junk in a beautiful
spk_0
location it it becomes very controversial when people discover that you know Rockefeller was
spk_0
the one buying up their valley uh people don't like it uh there are public hearings to determine if
spk_0
you did anything wrong uh ultimately he's clear to wrongdoing but is so poisoned his donation
spk_0
you know he's buying this land to donate it um so poisoned that that the national park service
spk_0
wouldn't take it they couldn't take it because of the controversy uh ultimately you know like after
spk_0
I think a couple decades of frustration there a Rockefeller says hey look if you're not going to
spk_0
take my donation I'm just going to sell this to the highest bidder I mean what else can he do he's
spk_0
paying all these taxes on this land it's doing nothing uh except sitting around and uh not being
spk_0
the park that he had envisioned that leads to the Jackson Hole National Monument uh creating that
spk_0
which is another controversial move um but eventually you know as we know the focus shifted to tourism
spk_0
all the people were coming to see this valley um I guess we see with 2020 hindsight how important
spk_0
that was to save that for posterity um and so to me this slice of iconic history is really what this
spk_0
mansion is all about it has the view of the grand t-ton that's what you're looking at you're looking
spk_0
at what the Rockefeller family worked so hard to save in Jackson Hole and uh yeah and the pricey
spk_0
listing um that we're talking about the mansion that's one generation remove we're talking about
spk_0
John D Rockefeller Jr who did uh who who bought up all this property and he him and Horace
spk_0
Albright save would uh would become grand t-ton national park and many at the time felt duped but the
spk_0
many looking back at it would say yeah you know it could have been ruined with development and
spk_0
time has eased that kind of controversy but it's Lawrence Rockefeller this son um who the uh the uh
spk_0
that's that little strip of gateway between Yellowstone and grand t-ton is named for a lot of people
spk_0
don't even know that um yeah yeah and he he also donated a 1,100 acre parcel um in grand t-ton
spk_0
which is now wildlife oh yeah area yeah so you know and while he was in Jackson Hole toodling
spk_0
around you know in culture bay hunting moon there he built a hotel there he built a home there
spk_0
but he also had time to create this valley ranch which is for sale and that the Rockefeller
spk_0
family retreat uh that was created by Lawrence as well yeah pretty cool place and it looks really
spk_0
neat it doesn't look like today's giant lodgepole pine interior stuff the end you can tell it's
spk_0
older and the architect is supposedly somebody pretty notable and fancy but it it looks nice i
spk_0
wouldn't mind having it you know for 13 million yeah i think anybody would want to live there
spk_0
this is uh the style is mid-century modern so you know it's it's got classic lines timeless
spk_0
lines you're using you know warm clear cedar wood throughout wood floors you know i i think this
spk_0
style is gonna be in style for a long long time uh i can't imagine it ever going out of style really
spk_0
yeah mercedes howf has the listing i know her and her daughter they'll do right by it and that cedar
spk_0
that clear cedar wood look it never goes out of style in fact it's i think it's fashionable again
spk_0
now and it's really hard to find um so yeah it's a unique listing with a ton of history which
spk_0
renae brings to life very cool ready have a great weekend all right you too all right ask
spk_0
avis segment coming off right after this quick break welcome to the Jake show on cowboy state daily

spk_0
every day yeah i know and i'm just thankful to have you on you are our highest rated segment as i
spk_0
said both our parents listen so the kneels and ratings through the roof skyrocket skyrocketing
spk_0
hey let me ask you something about uh before i get into trivia the real trivia today which is about
spk_0
teenagers you ready for that perfect yes i loved being a teenager and you were a teenager like
spk_0
yesterday it's not that long ago so teens um do you feel bad about using the restroom in a place if
spk_0
you don't buy anything no see most people most Americans do what about when they have a a
spk_0
sampler taste like if you go to the grocery store and they have um here try a sample but you don't buy
spk_0
it no i don't say i just say no i don't i do too i don't even do the sample because i don't feel
spk_0
pressured to buy yeah what about at the point of sale and they flip the catch register thing around
spk_0
they flip the square around you and they say click a tip do you do the 18% do you do 10 do you do
spk_0
custom and choose zero what do you do no tip it depends on you know i think the having been in
spk_0
the service industry for so long yeah i'm i'm a very generous tipper but i will say that sometimes
spk_0
in certain situations like okay i'm not calling subway out but we never we never
spk_0
i worked it so way it's my first job we never got tips we were paid an hourly rate that was
spk_0
you know determined to be whatever and so now all of a sudden like you're tipping for things that weren't
spk_0
you never tipped for before yeah like they didn't come i don't know uh i i know i know and
spk_0
and it is inherent in the job to build a sandwich that's what you're there to do are you making
spk_0
a sandwich any better there requires a tip then then you would uh you know the sandwich you made
spk_0
for the other guy well and for heaven's sake we dang there made the sandwich together
spk_0
you have right you walked out the line together right now
spk_0
you walked down the line on either side of the glass yeah and you're like some of them um
spk_0
you're almost doing i didn't put the gloves on but we did pretty much this this
spk_0
job together you win for that you totally win these i don't know i i appreciate the service industry
spk_0
and i feel bad that yeah often unkindly in it but it does you know it doesn't oh certain things
spk_0
just why does that waver an additional you know two bucks out of my pocket we've gone overboard with
spk_0
the whole um yeah what did you do to warrant the tip not anything really sometimes it's turning
spk_0
around and grabbing something off the shelf and sending their phone like really that transaction
spk_0
earns you the tip like you're gonna spin the screen around on me and make give me shame for not
spk_0
