You gotta get at least one for your mamma. I'm gonna go one for my mama. We've got a text message of a guy who's sent in one nipple normal and one is a white nipple. So a brown nipple and a white nipple. A picture, Yeah, and it says for sures Er, let's go oh god, oh my god. He put white out on his titty for Sureser, and

he cut off his face. He can't identify him. Smart. He has nice breasts though, full supple firm. That's amazing. Oh, I can't say that word. What nipple? No? Then what the tea? Oh did I? That's a questionable Oklahoma City python missing So it was up to thirteen feet It was six feet and then over the summer it grew up to thirteen feet long. Missing in this trailer part after eight grandma. Yeah, Detective Dick Shell thinks had ate an old lady. I agree with a lot

of people saying he's eating cats. No, no, no, it's cats. It's fine. Do you Remember Trevor from Redbeard Wildlife control Es. Remember when I called him during the break, you had him on the phone. You were actually speaking with this man and he refused to go on the air because what it was still under investigation, and yes, he couldn't speak to

the media yet, Okay see Channel twenty six. The man tasked with finding the thirteen foot missing albino python in Oklahoma City now says he's no longer on the hunt. Trevor of Redbeard Wildlife control says he's calling off his search after a few unprofessional and uncouthful calls and texts. Mine might have been one of them. WHOA, we are no longer going to work this job, he

told, I'm sorry News nine. He told them, he said he's still willing to remove the snake if found, but he's no longer providing deadly resources for the trailer park to help find this python. Okay. So I found that. I was like, so he's given up because either he can't do it, because remember he is boasting about having a live stream and I talked

to him. He was like, well, no, we're not gonna have that ready, And he told me on the phone something about insurance and sighting with the house that they thought the python was under and I said, I ain't got time for that. We get this python, all right, so another old lady doesn't get eaten. Everyone's being shady about this. They probably

found the python. It just had like you could see the silhouette of like a five foot four human holding a TV guy or like two feet sticking out with orthopedic shoes slip with house shoes on and a TV guide in their hand. A partially digested TV guide was found here gam GAM's house. She hasn't been heard from. Well, this is why it's bad that he's quit though, because the alternative solution I don't agree with personally. Let's go to Oklahoma

City Channel twenty six. Now, JJ, here's somadio Jack. We got a thirteen foot long python still on the loosen. This is becoming an all hands on deck situation in one Oklahoma City trailer park, not just hands pause too, Fox twenty five. David Jasenov joins this line from the Burntwood neighborhood. David, what kind of help are we talking about here? The Burtwood Trailer Park sent residents this letter saying new wildlife control groups will try tracking down

this thirteen foot long runaway python. According to community manager Justin Gray, an expert will track the snake using two Labrador retrievers. Okay, Paul, right there, Okay, that's licking its chops. Thank you, two delicious labs. Yes, please, two overdoor retrievers that they're going to send in because Redbeard quit. Okay, so that sounds a terrible for the dogs, but continue forth. Only one dog will be on a leash the pipe. Why is that? Why do we know that only one dog will be on a

leash The other one won't. That's the bait dog. That's a bait dog. Only one dog will be on a leash. The python is going to be an opportunistic predator and they're going to try to take whatever they need to eat to survive. Brown says. If the python bites a dog, the health consequences may vary. Really it's it's limited to the bite, or or if it's able to wrap itself around and squeeze it to death. It's like, we're just okay with killing dogs now to find the python. What is

happening in Oklahoma? They lost their damn mind because Redbeard couldn't get on the because Redbeard couldn't solve the case. Yeah, ace Ventura, you are not red because it is not that he's the opposite. They have two labs. One of them is like one of them has been trained its whole life, like to smell and like he's like a military dog. Is brilliant, and then they're just getting another poor lab that's just the dufistic labrador. You guys

are a crime fighting team. Why they've got the labrador and then they've got Gerald Deane. They have our dumb dog, freaking snake fodder. Yeah, that poor guy, the poor dog that lost the papers is a rock and match to not be on the leash, I gotta be the bait dog. Really. The other one gets to just kind of roam effortlessly. This is like this has been going on too long. At over two weeks, They've had plenty of time to think this through, and I don't think they've come

up with the best strategy. I also don't think they know where it's at. They don't. I think this thought that it's under one of the trailers. I think that's a fair thought, but I don't think they know for sure, and they haven't seen this thing in ten days when they snapped it out and about and were silenced and told not to say anything about it by the trailer park. A couple of ballsy news reporters got in there and did

their work, and then everyone knows about it. And then you know now that it's out and I just if it's thirteen feet fourteen to fifteen feet, there are some Social Security checks being illegally cashed by Redbeard. Yeah, there's something incentive to make sure the snake keeps eating old people. The way he talked around me too the other day, it was very like, you don't I didn't get a good vibe from him. Put it that way. We should text him again. He didn't respond to my text you know too.

That was annoying. I'm saying, off, you're texting. Lack of response, That's why I started cold calling. During the break he finally answered. But there it is. It's the update on the Python. Thank you now. Today is the eighteenth or thirteen days away from Halloween. Most popular Halloween costumes of the year, you guys getting guesses Barbie. Barbie's number one locally,

Ken and nationally. I doesn't see like Ken like on the list I'm sure there'll be tons of cans a lot of Spider Man this year, for whatever reason. On a Wednesday, Adams, you can get a lot of that. I'm not gonna tell you what I'm gonna be. You be a power Anger again, should be power Rangers. We should all be the powering. Let's do it. Let's all be the gay one. Blue Billy, Yeah, whatever, Billy the Blue One. Yeah, I'm okay with that. I think Tommy the Green Ranger died this year. Uh, people in

a people dressed up in the submarine. I think I decided I don't want to do this story anymore. So we're moving on to something on a second, I quit, don't quit. I want to ask you guys, do you remember your favorite Halloween costume as a kid? I mister potato head? Pure hell? Yeah? Was it real? Like cheaply done with crafts from only only five and dime? Did a giant potato? Well? It's also a lottery ticket back when lottery tickets hit the scene in like ninety three,

ninety four. Yeah, I was a scratch off. Awesome? Was it a winning ticket? Probably lose a winning ticket? Three sevens. It wasn't just a spare losing ticket with a giant code scratched off at the bottom too, trying to find a picture. Please find a picture of you as a lottery ticket, because that's creative lottery ticket. Mister potato head or Big Bird. Now, many students up opinions about Big Bird like you did Kermit yesterday. I'm pretty vindicated. Jim Henson created the mupps. He did, he

did, and they became famous because of Kermit. No, because of Sesame Street. That's why they're known. Let's not do this again. I don't want to do it either. Danny, are you covering the man hunt? No? Do you know about it? Why don't you tell me the damn story? And stop asking me questions? I don't feel like being interviewed right now. We've got a man hunt going on in Georgia. No, you had the Cavalcante stole the headlines last month, but we got a big one

here. Four men escape from jail in a Georgia jail about eighty five miles south of Atlanta. Four dudes. Yeah, they man gaped at three point thirty am on Monday. Ready, Oh my god. The wildest fact of all this, Well, there's a couple of wild things. But the wildest thing is that these are all tiny guys. Okay, Joey forty, a white with gray hair, he's five nine, Mark Anderson, black with dreadlocks, five nine one sixty five. Jonnifer Barnwell, Jonnifer, so you can

take your guess. Jonnifer Barnwell, black with braids five eight one ninety. He's the heavy one of the group. And then Chavas Stokes, black males, short, black hair, five seven, one sixty. All these dudes under two hundred pounds, These little rascals on the run. Yeah, because they all crabwall had a crab walk do they all crab walk out? They nut crab walk out. They they jumped, So they broke out of a

second floor window, ran through a break in the fence. Staff found a break in the perimeter of the fence at six am, so these dudes had a three hour start. Video footage later showed a Blue Dodge Challenger was outside the jail earlier in the night and showed an individual tampering with the fence. So I get away. They had outside help, didn't they. The person then brought them some items into the enclosed area of the fence. What items

that didn't say what I just said. Some so somebody cut the fence for him. They knew where it was going to be. They jumped out the second floor, yep, ran and ran through and ran through the fence. They don't know if there was a getaway car, like if it was there to pick them up, yeah or not, but it's I bet it was. Okay. What's the connection with these three guys. I mean they know

that fellow members of something, so they're considered armed and dangerous. Joey Fournier's fifty two, was charged at the murder of his ex girlfriend last year. He strangled her with a shoelace. Jesus, you don't see that much the shoelace. At the time of the escape, the sheriff said there were less than ten people working at the jail. The jail holds eight hundred people. He also said the jail is so old and said we need a new jail. This one is falling in on us. So it was a crappy jail,

not a lot of people. These guys were able to escape pretty easily, and they are on the lamb and they've been gone since Monday. Did you just make a sound. He did, huh yad on Monday morning, three thirty am. Today's Wednesday. So we're forty eight hours in Okay and they have three hour head start. Just no one noticed that there was a break in the perimeter and there's only half dozen people working. Do you think they split up or are they working together? Because they split up, we

have to split up, I am, I think. So what's going on with Jonnifer? You know? Maybe his name's John and he dated a famous Jennifer and they kind of mashed their names together. They were a prison celebrity couple. I actually know someone who is a Richard but also a Rachel. Transperson. Well yeah, but they would switch truck driver by day Richard, home by night Rachel. Okay, fun and that is the fun of small

town living. Uh boy, I tell you what, though, when you're eight or nine, your grandparents parents aren't always painting that person in a positive light. Yeah, he's funny like that. Yeah, the trail blazers on that front, Yeah, they did not. They did not. That is your scuttle butt for today. October eighteen eighth, twenty twenty three. Good job man, Thank you, you crushed man.
