I like news, and I like Kevin, and I like the scuttle. But I've got some stuff involving food and drink that's always a big hit. In a second, but first, we have a python on the loose in Oklahoma, and I'm gonna let the Oklahoma News describe this for you. J JF. You to mind cranking me out. This is about one

minute here. This python has gotten big over the last few months and it's still on the loose. They feel like they've got a good idea where it's at, but it's not done yet. Still on the loose. A python in ok s ready problematic. Python slithering in a South Okac mobile home park is actually thirteen feet long and has been there since June eating cats. Okay, there's that getting started. It's fun to be looking for some reason.

Right at Danny as he busts up, he did it like if you were if you were sipping, we would have got a spit take out right there. His pacing, his alliteration, the delivery perfect because I was gass. I was thinking of his alliteration as he was sitting at his little desk at his Oka See news station, writing, what prolific python south slythering and slithering south? And I'm like, oh, he got the and then he hits you hard with a hard cat and he's eating cats. Play it again,

please? Yes? And by the way, this audio and the whole segment bright to by Parker University problematic python slithering in a South okc mobile home park. It's actually thirteen feet long and it has been there since June eating cats. A snake was captured on camera in Burtwood last week. It was six feet long in June. Now it's thirteen feet long. Okay, so June to now four months, five months, don't even know. Four months, yeah, three July, August, September, yeah, three or four months

whatever. It's doubles its size for the double. I don't believe that because it's been eating cats. You're cats. You're a six foot python. You're gonna get to thirteen feet in three months? Yeah, I don't believe it. Okay, by the end of the year, this is gonna be eighteenth Yeah. We will talk. Forty feet the size on my tree, your tree is forty is better than eighty that you guessed. Come over, Come over, I come over. Are you ready? The park located right next

to Bryant Elementary School, no gates stopping it from slithering over there? Okay, it's by a school with no gates to stop it from slithering over there. All right. I spoke with Trevor of Redbeard Wildlife Hired to get that snake out. Trevor says, it's been surviving under one of the homes. It just so happens. Half the cats in the neighborhood are missing. You're half? Okay? Do we have a cat tracker like to know that we've lost? Are missing? Okay? If a cat doesn't want you to touch

it, you'll never touch it. But snakes good? Are these snakes stealthy and sneaky and slythery? Mike? Is that it? Yeah, that's part of their They don't see the snake until they're right there's one snake. Cats are hanging out on houses too, then, yes, yeah, yeah, wild feral cats Okay. The population has decreased by fifty percent due to the slithery python. Prolific python. Okay, well, first of all, farrel

though those wouldn't be tracked. Other pits. Yeah, okay, do let your pet cat out, like to go to the bathroom, something like cat's weird doors. No, I don't know that's true. No is he don't mean cats. This is slithering in maybe eating a cat, going in the next house, going in the kitty door. Yeah, it's possible if anyone has a doggy door, definitely getting there. Imagine a giant python coming in your doggy door and you look over there. I would lose it. That

would absolutely no. No, get out. No. Do we get to hear from Redbird, the the Trevor Reptile Bounty Hunter, the best of the best before you hear from Trevor from Redbeard Wildlife. I want you guys to know that I both texted and emailed Trevor from Redbeard Wildlife last night. Nothing

I got nothing back. Damn Us tells me he's on the case. We're gonna be able to put quite the size of animal and this opossums, rabbits like you said that Trailer parks specifically, they were complaining about, you know, all the cats coming up missing when you had an animal that large. And I can imagine a cat put up one nasty fight. So when it's been attacked that many times to that extent, it's not nice. The nice, non aggressive pet snake is gone because it's so big they can't just pick

it up and take it. He set up a trap with a twenty four hour life feet of the snake. He says, as soon as it heads out and gets caught, he'll let us know. Well, what's the name of the thing? Redbeard? Can we watch the twenty four hour life feet? I was looking for it and didn't see it on his website. I'll just tell you that, Travis at Redbeard Wildlife. I was looking for the live stream because I would have had it up, you know, on one of our TVs during the show. Yeah, but I didn't see that.

Okay, Red Beard Wildlife Control, we got their number. You want to call him, just ask if there's any update that we can be up to the second. I didn't text him last night? Did you mean give him a call right now? Not on? You're are you gonna call your cell phone right now? Let's take on he gonna answer because he's trying to try. I think that's his cell phone number. Yeah, it's just one guy, gotta be I don't know red Beard Wildlife could be a big conglomerate service

for moles, gophers, rodents. Just see Hi, is Trevor there? Leave a message? Have you? Have you left him a voicemail yet no invited him to the Echo Lounge Thursday. Welcome to Red Beards Wildlife's Solutions. We are now text for all of your wildlife removal, animal damage repair text active my ass I texted you last night. Yeah, he's on the case. Kevioh. Yeah, you don't call Ace van Tero when he's in the dolphin tank. Guess what update? Snake's fourteen feet now in the last five

minutes, I go get the thing. Oh you must drop Uh, well, Danny and Julie who dropped this bomb last week? He checked text, I don't believe this snake can grow? This felt Okay, so this is happening cat, This is happening in a trailer park. Yeah, there's there's pet cats just running around all over those things. Sure, yeah, for sure. So this this is like a cat golden corral for mister Python. Someone said, first of all, how do you know it's not alf dressed

as a python? Because I did think of the alf eating cat thing, but I didn't say it that's good. Uh, so you would have got an applause for me, dude, I'm a fan of alf So for check nine, man, I'll help with trailer park cat etiquette. The cats are indoor outdoor to keep all other pests away. Okay, so that makes a lot of sense. They got a job to do, like red Beard does a job to do. A two. My wife, my wife's dad knows

every stray cat in his neighborhood. Cat people are weird, man. If you're yeah, if you're cat people, you know, you probably get to know a little more, yeah than other people. To us, they're just animals frolicking about. But if you're a real cat person, there's a cat commune in my neighborhood. Yeah, you have one. I have a few of them down these alleys and yeah, yeah, yes, in the alleys

because me and little Malcolm will go on this walk. We always go down this alley because there's a neighbor that has a pet rabbit that is allowed to roam free in their backyard and it's fun. So we'll, you know, take that little take that route so Malki can hopefully play with the rabbit.

Yeah. But on the other end of the alley is a is a cat commune, and it's probably like a dozen of them and they all live right in this little area outside these folks houses or these folks house, and they'll you'll see evidence of food that people will bring them and feed them, and water and they leave a jug of water there so you can off their bowl what they want them to urinate covers up the smell of meth. What are you saying. I'm saying that it's common for meth houses. This isn't a

meth houses that dabble with the death. It's not a mate. They get cats because the smell of the urine covers up the sulfur smell that comes in with the meth. Kevin, you've something. I moved away from Knox City to escape the world of myth. I don't currently live in the world of myth. I'm closer to it. I'm just telling you you didn't mean it doesn't exist. Look, there's meth in the city of Dallas. These are just barrel stray cat that happened to have a little outdoor home. Yeah,

they whiz and cover up the smell of all of them. Not every cats is symbolized signifying that a meth house is nearby. Where were they hiding meth? You should have commune. You're ridiculous. You know I had fun the last two days, and now I'm not having fun. Hey, oh, yesterday when I went out to get my car yesterday morning in four point thirty eight, whatever time it was, there was no possum in front of it, and it appeared to have rabbis. There's often one of these stray cats

under my jeep when I leave in the mornings. M hmm. I think the warmth and protection of a jeep. You gotta be careful because the little bitty kiddies we'll crawl into your engine and sleep on the blades of your fan. That's not your job to check that. I should. I'm not checking the engine every day before I leave it four thirty. They'll be careful. He's just gonna just turn it on like ye always would. What happens you start your car? Butcher a kitten to do that. But if he's gonna

sit on a spinning blade, he doesn't know. He thinks it's just a warm little cot. Let's move away from wildlife. Fine fastest total time by car. The Fast Food Awards are out happens each year. Now, these are not awards. Is as much as scientific study, okay, about who has good service in the arena of fast food, fastest total time by car, have a lot. Is this national or is this a certain state national? National? National? Okay, because there might be something we don't even

have here. No, I would say we have all all these we have here. Okay. So the fastest time from when you place short to when you get it on average, fastest all time about car. And this is why places if the line starts to stack up, they go, could you pull ahead? Because they have a timer that's testing them for things. They're trying to win their fast the award. Yeah, it's like a rating system

thing. It really is. It's their version of the PPM. I mean, you would think that the fast food restaurant that has the most like ready made stuff to go, I'm gonna go with McDonald's, wouldn't you. I'm gonna go with Taco Bell because I don't think you need specific patties. Number four, Taco Bell, Mickey D's. Number two Mickey D's for the third straight year. Number two, You'll get a bed.

I always don don't because you will roll through that sob like flash, they do the lord's work. Yeah, they're incredible. Just not say day take that day off. I want it. Buildings. If you're building a new Chick fil A, shouldn't you almost build it around whatever your drive through system is? I mean, what percentage do they sell in how

in building versus drive through? It's got to be seventy five percent drive through probably, Like build the thing geared to that four land. You can have ramps. Did I the Chick fil A by my house? They're packed inside all the time. You don't need you could have. We have one at Kostalinda. And I'm going to tell you guys the story about Chick fil A.

The chicken robot. Oh, the AI robot. Yeah, there's an AI chicken robot that if you dine in at Chick fil A. So I took Malcolm and he wanted Chick fil A, and we went and we sat down to eat, and the lady comes over and takes our order, and five minutes later, here comes a little shelf on wheels, unmanned, and it turns and faces us, and there's our bags of food. It went right to your table, right to the table and handed us our bags of

food. No, no, no, we hadn't take them. And then you push the button that says received, and then the robot just goes and if there's somebody standing in its way, it just goes around them and then goes back. Yeah, if there's a person walking, yes, this thing goes around. Yes, it's like a driverless car. That's dumb, but it's it's the Chick fil a Chicken robot, and it's there to serve you. Awesome.
