with the speed of light, a cloud of dust, and a hearty high old silver, the Lone Ranger. With his faithful Indian companion, Tonto, the masked rider of the planes led the fight for law and order in the early western United States. The stories of his strength and courage, his daring and resourcefulness have come down to us through the generations and nowhere in the pages of history can one find a greater champion of justice. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. From out of the past come the thundering hoofbeats of the great horse Silver. The Lone Ranger rides again. Come on, Silver! There's danger on the trail ahead. I'll Silver! Fly! Skeleton Canyon was a grim and foreboding place. Its granite walls, broken, blasted and seen by countless centuries of wind and rain, towered high into the western sky. Its face was pitted with numerous small caves and ominous scars where leaden bullets had spent their force. In the reflected glow of a setting sun, Skeleton Canyon resembled a huge toothless mouth, gaping in the fever-fleshed face. Night came quickly on one of the upper trails, and the sudden darkness caused the Lone Ranger, Tonto and Dan Reed to rain up their horses. Oh! Oh! Make some hope! The storm blowing up. We'd better find Sheller before it breaks. Yeah. Those black clouds are almost close enough to reach out and touch. Uh, better we find Cave plenty quick. He's one right ahead of us, but we'll have to hurry. Come on, Silver, we're not far. All right, Victor. Right on into the Cave. It's a regular cloud bridge. Yes, Dan. Certain storms like this are rather common in this part of the country. Uh-huh. Have plenty of dry wood. We build fire. That's a good idea, Tonto. We'll dry out our clothes. The horse is over to that far wall, Dan, please. Sure. Come on, Silver. Cave. Very big. Long time ago, an Indian lived here. Probably one of the cliff-willer tribes. The cave's all along the canyon wall. Uh-huh. I had strapped our samurals. Yeah, they need drying out, too. Good. Won't take long. As soon as I strike this match, let this fire going. The skeleton canyon very long. Seems like we rode into it all of a sudden. No, geological formation, Dan. Evidently at one time, there was no break in the range at this point. What do you mean? Through some volcanic action, the mountain split, giving the water from the headlands a natural bend. Well, that's Border Creek, huh? Yes, but the strange part of it is how Tokoha Valley on the other side of the range was watered before Border Creek flowed through this canyon. Maybe there wasn't any valley there. The valley's much older than Skeleton Canyon. The soil proves that. Oh. Well, there must have been another creek. Evidently. Well, why do they call it Skeleton Canyon? It's a question I can't answer, Dan. Many places are named for incidents or legends that happened hundreds of years ago. The names remain long after the reasons for them are forgotten. Gee, I'm... Listen, what is it, Tokoha? We hear horse and trail. Somebody ride plenty, plenty fast. Yes, you're right. Someone heading this way. Isn't it pretty dangerous to ride that fast in a storm like this? Very dangerous, Dan, unless you know every inch of the trail. Who could it be? Wait, I don't like it. We'd better be safe and sorry. Tokoha, the fire throws too much light. Quick, put those blanket rows together. Though they were covering someone. Now, let's all get back out of the firelight. He's riding so fast. I don't see why. He shot at us. Out of this, Dan, roll the blankets. Look. Two holes. Right where a man's head would be if he were sleeping here with a fire. Well, we stay out of the light. That plenty good hunch. You consider how fast that rider went by here in a driving rainstorm. This is plenty good shooting. Gee, he doesn't even know we're here. Why would he shoot? We're going to find out. Here, Silver. Man ride, ride horse. Yes, I know it. I don't think there's a horse that can outrun the Silver. Is that a big fella? Are we going with you? I'll make better time alone. Wait for me. Come on, Silver. Yeah, very well. Get off this trail without falling into the canyon. Now, faster, Silver. There he is, right ahead of me. Come on, Silver. Coming close. Not close enough. Faster, Silver. He was here just a minute ago. Hold, Silver, hold. Find those trees, Steady Boy. That last shot hit home, Steady. My sights on the flash of your gun. All right, Ghost. You win. Why don't you finish the job? Why were you shooting at me? I was only doing what every other man up here would like to do. What did you call me just now?  You've never seen me before? Why did you shoot into the cave? Cave? What are you talking about? I've been laying view for the last two hours, right here. That's true. Who was the man on the white horse that rode ahead of me just now?  Maybe. Come up on the trail. You're riding with me. Now, listen. I made a plane. I missed. You plugged me in the arm and got the drop. I ain't asking no favors in the likes of you. Go on. Finish what you've started. I intend to. Start walking. Yes, you are. Move. We'll ride double on my horse. All right, get off. We're going in the cave. Be big for life. Eat in silver, Dan. Sure. So this is your kid helping you? Put down on one of those blankets. Got some questions. I want straight answers. Yeah? Why should a murderer pull a cat like you? What's your name? You know it just as well as you know the name of every other sheep man here in the canyon. Just as well as we know you, ghost. In the first place, my name isn't ghost. Sure, it ain't your real name. But you're riding a white horse and wearing a mask. My aim had been better up there in the trail. You'd be worried about long. I still want to know your name. You'd better talk. My name is Huggins. Zev Huggins.  Yeah. Who is this person you call the ghost? As if you didn't know. Remember? I said you'd better talk.  Oh, why? You ought to know that. Like it's not you're a cattle man from over in Tokoha Valley. But it won't do you any good.   So you think the cattle ranchers in Tokoha Valley have sent the ghost up here? Sure they have. Have you any fight with them? Are you using their range? No. We graze our sheep up here in the hills. There ain't a flock ever been within 20 miles of the valley. And what reason would they have for killing or burning? Cattlemen don't need no reason.  I see. You can tell them that too. Every last one of the thieves are no good killers. All right, I will. The rain stopped now, Zeb. I imagine you have a ranch somewhere near here. You can leave if you want to. What? You mean you're not going to? I'm going to try to help you in spite of yourself. Goodbye, Zeb. You're really gonna let me walk out of here? That's what I said. Well, how? That man, Betty, is scared.  Who is he? Is he the one that shot at us? No, Dan, I don't think so.  What's that ghost he was talking about? I don't know. It must have been the ghost I was chasing, though. He was riding a white horse. Where'd he go?  He is the one they call Ghost. He's well-named. Golly! You think this ghost, Cattleman, make this fellow safe? Well, that's a difficult question, Tonto. We're going to find the answer to it. Oh! And we'll camp here for the night. Now, first thing in the morning, you and Tonto ride to Toko. That's a little cattle town right in the center of the valley. Yeah. But what do we do there? Talk to the cattleman. Ask questions about the sheep raisers, Skeleton Canyon, the ghost, anything they'll talk about. What you do, Kimosabi? I'll stay here and examine this trail, Tonto. I want to know how a man and a horse can suddenly disappear into thin air. The following morning, soon after daybreak, Tonto and Dan Reed saddle their horses on the road through Skeleton Canyon toward the town of Toko on the valley. A short time later, the Lone Ranger rained silver to a halt in the trail where he'd dog Zeb Huggins bullets the night before. Oh, silver! Oh, boy, boo! This is the place where he disappeared silver. I'm sure his horse didn't fly. There must be tracks somewhere. You wait here. I'll beat through this pinion and mesquite on the side of the trail. The Lone Ranger warmed his way through a thick-tangled underbrace that was shoulder-high. The Lone came to a break in the canyon wall. It was narrow, but still large enough to admit a man or a horse. The opening was guarded by a cluster of chimney rocks almost as tall as the canyon walls themselves. Walking quickly through the cut, the masked man was amazed at the sight which met his eyes. Rearing itself majestically on a little plateau overlooking the canyon was the outer wall of a huge stone castle. Massive bastions in a lofty tower were outlined against the morning sky. He noticed, however, that the structure was worthless. Gaunt blackened roof timbers bore mute evidence of a devastating choir. Puzzled and curious, he moved toward the castle wall. I heard of castles in Spain. I never heard of one in the skeleton canyon. Reaching the wall, the Lone Ranger walked cautiously, every sense alert, where he'd already noticed that the ground moist from the recent rainfall bore fresh hoop prints. He was looking for some kind of a break in the stone wall. If a horseman had ridden this far, he must have gone further. There it is, the doorway. An iron door standing wide open. They must be expecting me. To be the seller, and maybe a dungeon if this was really a castle. Certainly deserted. My friend a ghost on a white horse came this way. Not here now. The boats are closer than they were last night.  He could see ugly spurts of flame leap from the showers, but he couldn't make out the figure of the man behind him. As he reached for his own guns, the room echoed again with a wild and insane laugh. There must be another door on the other side of the room. Another room. If he's not here, I'll be closed it behind my back. This is one time in my life I've walked into a trap with my eyes wide open. The curtain falls on the first act of our Lone Ranger story. Before the next exciting scenes, just a pause for just a few moments. Now to continue our story. Tonto and Dan Reed had arrived in Toko where they stopped at one of the town's many cafes. There, Tonto. That man sitting at the table. He looks like a cattle rancher. Come on, we'll talk to him. Howdy. Hello there, son. Do I know you? I don't think so, sir. I've never been in this town before. My name's Dan Reed. This is my friend, Tonto. That's what I like to hear. My name's Nash. Sam Nash. I'm glad to know you, Mr. Nash. You, uh, gen strangers in town? Well, I guess you'd call us that. We just rode in from the north. This looks like good cattle country. Best in the world. Are you a cattle rancher? Well, I don't know how you'd call me a rancher. I've got a little spread west of town here. About 2,000 head longhorns. Sounds like a pretty big ranch to me. Does anybody raise sheep around here? Sheep? Not on your life. We're in a single one of them black and woolly critters in this whole valley. This is cattle country, son. It's going to stay that way. I thought we saw some sheep grazing out far from here. Not unless you rode through Skeleton Canyon. There's plenty of sheep up there. And that's where they're going to stay. Come to think of it, we did ride through Skeleton Canyon, didn't we, Tonto? Ah, you were smart to keep on riding. Them sneaking two-faced burdened sheepherders ain't worth the powder to blow them up. What's the matter? They're open and fight like men. Instead of that, one of them sneaks down here into the valley at night and stampedes our herds. Or fires our barns. Another thing, a couple of ranchers have been dry-gulched. And everybody knows that ghost is the one who done it. Ghost? That's what he calls himself. Rides a white horse and wears a mask. Hides out up in the canyon someplace. That's why we know he's a sheepherder. Seems like I've heard about the ghost. Can't the law catch him? Son, there's thousands of caves in the walls of Skeleton Canyon, but them for a hideout and them sheepmen protecting them, the law ain't got a chance. I wonder why he calls himself a ghost. Because he figures some folks will think he's the spirit of Don Hernandez. But he ain't no spirit. That sneaking critter is flesh and blood. An hour late, 10 to 1, he's a sheepman. Don Hernandez? Who's that? Ain't you never heard? No, I guess she ain't been a stranger in these parts. Don Hernandez is the reason why Skeleton Canyon is called Skeleton Canyon. What do you mean? Well, it all happened hundreds of years ago. Hundreds of years? When the conquistadoris came up into this country from Mexico, one of them gents was a Spanish nobleman named Don Hernandez. When he got as far as a canyon, he decided to settle down. So he built himself a castle. Castle? Sure, it's still standing. What's left of it are the north wall of the canyon. Did Don Hernandez own everything around here? Sure, thousands of square miles, land grant from the king of Spain, and all of his descendants figured they owned it, too. Wow. What happened when this country became a territory of the United States? That's where the pinch came in. There was a Don Hernandez descendant of the original nobleman living in that castle up until about 15 years ago. Why'd he leave? Well, to tell you. His last Hernandez critter figured times hadn't changed any, that he still owned the whole valley and everything in it. So he started charging toward everybody who came through the canyon into the valley and they had to pay him a fee. Did he get away with it? Well, for a while, then some of us gents here in Tokor decided to put a stop to it. We knew, too, that he was smuggling counterband into this country from Mexico. So the sheriff formed a paucine. We went up to Don Hernandez' castle. Did he put up a fight? Quite a bit. He had enough hired gunmen for a private army. There was a lot of shooting and killing, and we moved in and fired the castle. Left it like it is now. He took his tower into the canyon, killed himself, and for years after that some folks claimed they could see his skeleton hanging on a cliff. And that's why they call it skeleton canyon, huh? Yep. Don Hernandez had a son, too, but the law tried him and sent him to prison for life. See, that sure swell story. Gospel truth, every bit of it. But this ghost... Oh, that vomit. He's just some sheep man trying to make us valley folks thinks he's the avenging spirit of Don Hernandez. I was just talking to the sheriff yesterday. It's time we formed another posse. Maybe the ghost isn't a sheep man. Who else could it be?  There's a lot for the information, Mr. Nash. I guess we'll be moving along. Sure, sure. If you ever come to Toko again, look me up. We will. Bye, Mr. Nash. Come on, tunnel. So long, kid. Well, tunnel, I don't know what the lone ranger will think of our information, but we sure got plenty of it. He was helplessly trapped in a sealed stone cell with a heavy iron door. The lone ranger realized his position was desperate. Exerting all his strength, he was unable to move the door. Locked on the outside. Oh, you should... Oh, wait. There's a small grill at the top. My arm is long enough to reach through. That's a lock I can... No, the lock's only a sliding bolt. They can only reach it some way. For several minutes, the masked man tried in vain to reach the outside bolt by pushing his arm through the small grill at the top of the door. Then at last, he evolved an ingenious plan. Removing the raw hide lacing from his holster, he fashioned a miniature lariat with a smooth running slipknot with but a matter of a few moments before the tiny lasso was swinging freely on the outside of the door. With dexterous skill and uncanny timing, he tossed the thumb-sized raw hide toward the unseen door bolt. Suddenly, he felt the leather grow tall. That's it. There, I've got it. Still haven't found the ghost. I know how and where he disappears. On my next visit, I should have more luck. Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Tuttle and I got back from Choco over an hour ago. Couldn't figure out why you weren't here. Lady, I was detained, Dan. Did you find out anything, Tuttle? Ah, cattleman and capet talked long time. Tell plenty. Yeah, maybe it isn't important, but we do have a lot to tell you. Good. Go ahead and tell me. This is called Skeleton Canyon. While the cattleman and Tocca, I think the ghost really is the one... As Dan repeated all that Sam Nash had told him, the Lone Ranger seemed lost in thought. When the boy finished, he asked several questions. That's very interesting, Dan. When did you say the castle was burned and Don Hernandez killed himself? About 15 years ago. And, uh, what became of his son? Mr. Nash said he was sent to prison for life. Not a... The county seat is about 20 miles south of here. Can you ride Darren back before tomorrow morning? Ah. Good. I'll write a note. I want you to take it to the sheriff. He'll give you an answer. Bring it back. You do it. You scout. If Mr. Nash was telling the truth, it won't be very long before the cattleman and Tocca will ride up here and try to find out which one of the sheepraisers is the ghost. That's right, Dan, unless the sheepmen ride to Tocca first. Yeah, then it'll mean a war between them. I'm afraid so. It's what we must prevent. It's possible. Hurry, Tonto, and get back as soon as you can. Uh-uh. You wait here, Kimusabe. We're not here. We'll be at the castle, Tonto. You can find us. Uh-uh. Get him out of this county! Are we really going to the castle? Yes, we've got to, Dan. I'm sure the answer to everything is there. Shortly before sundown, the Lone Ranger and Dan rode to the bend on the upper trail where the masked man had discovered the break in the canyon wall. Oh, please, oh, please! I believe the horse is here, Dan. Steady silver, steady boy. Golly, what was that? The big overhang at the top of the gourd. Someone has blasted it. It'll fill the canyon. Make a dam across the creek. If anything, we'll start a war between the sheep and cattle men. It's a loss of water. What are you going to do? We'll ride up there. Come on, settle back. Get up, Victor. More Victor. Oh, gee, look. There must be 50 men over there. They're all carrying guns. Listen. We're up in the valley. Heard that explorers bigot wanted fire. Well, I want to tell you this, the cattlemen are riding up here now. This blast and narrowing the creek will give them just the excuse they want to try to wipe us out. Are we going to hold still for that? No! The rest of the bigot will be ready for them. That's going to be a war, all right. We've got to stop it. Follow me, Dan. Where? The castle. Come on, settle down. Get up, Victor. A few minutes later, the Lone Ranger and Dan were outside the stone wall of the ancient castle. They walked quickly through the door and across the large stone room. This is the iron door I told you about. It's unlocked. But isn't this the room where you live? There must be another door in these walls someplace. The ghost disappeared in here. Calli and it... There. That's it. Look. That stone on the wall over there. It's moving. See? It opens into a tunnel. Down, Dan. Get down. I can see him running the other end of the tunnel. Come on. Stay behind me. You can only get near enough to him to... Look out, Dan. We've turned water into this tunnel. And Peter, hang on to me. Swim, Dan.  I'll do it. Look, he fell. Tell him the water. He's coming down here. Good. He's caught in his own trap. There. There he is. I can just... Now, swim back towards this stone room, Dan. I'll bring the ghost. He's unconscious. I can see as you got here just in the nick of time. The cattlemen are coming up the trail now. What's been worrying us is what stopped the river from rising. I told you the underground tunnel in the castle is the original creek bed. This man, the ghost, knew the secret. He's the one who set off the blast. But why? Because he's partially insane. Because he wanted revenge against all of you, both cattle and sheepmen. Who is the critter, you know? Yes, this is Taddo. I'll know in just a minute. Let me bring note from Sheriff. Thanks, Taddo. Yes. This is just as I thought it was. Well, what do you mean? This man is Don Hernandez. Hernandez? You mean the young one? He was sent to prison for life. But he was pardoned three months ago. My Indian friend just brought work from the sheriff at the county seat. Well, I'll be... So the ghost was the son of Hernandez. He probably reasoned in his insane way that if he could start a war between you and the cattlemen, then flood the canyon with all revert to him. What's going to happen to him now? He'll turn him over to your sheriff. Here's a note that explains everything. Well, Taddo, let's go. Oh, wait. Wait a minute. Who was that hombre you were just talking to? Wasn't he wearing a mask? Yeah. The ghost? No. There's the ghost. Laying over there on the ground, unconscious. Well, then who was the other critter? I don't know. Give me a note to give to the sheriff. A note? Well, look at it. Maybe he signed his name. Yeah. He'd signed. Well, what's the name? The Lone Ranger. Are you still there? The party you have just heard is a copyrighted feature of the Lone Ranger Incorporated.


My name is Carol Ann Nelson. I am an administrative services coordinator with the Wisconsin Technical College System. I perform a variety of administrative and technical support functions for the college districts, but my primary work is to oversee the client reporting system that the colleges use to submit all of their student course and program related data to the state. When I think about my work, I think the numbers paint a picture of who the folks are that are, you know, being served by the technical college districts. The numbers show trends over time, it tells a story demographically, tells a story about the types of courses and programs that are important and who is utilizing those services. My work is important to me because it's accountability. It's what allows us to advocate for funding for the college districts and other policy changes at the state level. All the numbers that I gather are useful for all of those reasons. We are successful when we can give clear guidance to the college district staff so that they know what information we need from them about their students to support them in getting the funding that they need to educate more people.


This video is about absolute value applications. So in order to satisfy college control, the marble columns of a company produces a stress test score of S that satisfies the inequality S minus 17,750 is less than or equal to 275. So we want to solve the inequality. So let's do that first. So to solve the inequality remember we're just going to drop the inequality and just say S minus 17,750 is going to be less than or equal to 275. But we also have to look at the S minus the 17,50 could possibly be a negative value. So it's a negative 275, but remember it's kind of like we multiplied this side by negative one so we have to switch the inequality. So if I add 17,750 to the 275 we're going to get S to be less than or equal to 18,025. And if we add it to the negative 275, S is going to be greater than or equal to 17,475. And then the question says determine if a score of 17,500 is in the passing range. 17,500 is greater than that so yes it passes. For all recruits in the 3rd Armored Battalion the average number of sit ups is 125. For an individual recruit the amount varies by no more than 23 sit ups from the battalion average. Find the average. Well one of the things that's going to be important here is no more than. We know there's a difference of about 23 and that difference is the number of sit ups and the 125 that is the average. So we're going to make that the absolute value. No more than means it can be less than but not greater than. So less than but no more than implies that it can be equal to 23. So we have S minus 125 less than or equal to 23. And we also have S minus 125 is greater than or equal to the opposite or negative 23. Switch to inequality gave it a negative. So if I add 125 to 23 we're going to have 148 which is S is less than or equal to 148. And if we add 125 to negative 23 we're going to have S is greater than 102. And so we would say that the range is between 102 and it includes it because the inequality includes it up to 148.


What is your name? Sabina. Sabina, what do you do in life? Tourism, yes, and I'm in tourism since almost 30 years. Fighting against everything that can change a positive way of living tourism here. We are only using 40% of the energy that we have at our disposal. So it's not needed at all. And in our view, this is a European problem. This is not only from Salento, from Melenduño, from San Focca. This is a problem for Europe. We have to collect all forces and to be united in this battle, because it's not only ours. We are a lot of people saying, no, we don't want it, we don't need it. It's dangerous, but really active, like being here and doing the actions. It's a few of them.  And I'm from San Focca, so I'm really there, from there, where TAP will come up in this region. That's not fair, that's not fair. Not needed, useless, dangerous. No TAP here in Salento and nowhere else. Now they are going, we stopped them the whole day. For today? Yeah, for today is done. Tomorrow we start again fighting against this. Applause, bravo!


Name another podcast like this. We're gonna bring it to the table, boss talk. Check it, check it, check it. This is unique hustle. This is your boy, your CEO. And I'm here with the lovely amazing, outstanding Mr. Mica. What's going on? Not even on my day, I'll go on. Say man, these guys right here, man, pulled up on us, man. The radio station in the building, man. Check it, man. These boys serious, man. They hear a man. In the building. These young Perions in the building, man. What's going on? Hey, bless this man. Appreciate it. I love the intro, bruh. What's the vibe? I was like, okay, we still have the intro. Yeah, y'all do this every day, nigga.  I started sparring with that nigga right here. Yeah, nigga. What you got? Jay-Z tatted on your own, nigga? Oh, man. I get him. He's like, no, don't do that, man. That's how he's talking. No, I just, I was just, you know, just playing, and I did the same thing, it would be local. It's just like, okay, you know, I love to talk, so it don't really matter to me. You know what I'm saying? I can go. Like, I don't care who it is. So at the end of the day, man, it was dope to even get them into our presence, too. And we've been working our way through the radio, where a shot out to my boy, man, Spaceboy Fresh. Yeah. You know what I'm saying?  How did you get into it, actually? Either one of y'all can go down there or whatever, it don't matter. So really, man, the radio station found me in the strip club. Like I was one of the first, the strip club DJs back in 2017. They found me there, and they broadcasted every weekend, and I had got the opportunity to DJ in the strip club on the weekends.  Y'all may know something about that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Y'all knew we were wicked out there. Yeah, man. It was crazy. So I was there. I graduated college in 2014, and yeah, man, my first club was at Cabaret North. Shout out to my guy DJ Chubb, both of the Chubbs, because they didn't want to link me in, and they got me in, and them some OGs in the game, and they gave me the game, and I started working my way up, and finally got a chance to work on the weekends, and the radio station broadcasted every weekend on Saturdays. So once they saw me, they was like, who's this new little guy in the club, man? We got to get him on at the station. So that's how I got on the radio. They say he had a real turntable, too. Yeah, I had. Big toe turntables in the club. They're like, who is this? What about a two piece? Yeah, man, I'm really from St. Louis. So St. Louis, I was with the college in Grammar, and I was pretty much the title of the mascot. You feel me? So coming, and I was the network and staying for a class a weekend, seeing you. So that's how I really kind of got in. I just put my foot in the door. Like, hey, I'm going to be graduating soon. I'm trying to come get a job. I was talking to 104 at the time, and then I talked to 979 at the same time. So then, boom, I had some recommendations that got me in. I told them I hit them with an email. Like, I'm on my way to Dallas. What do I got to do? She said, let me know when you get here. Boom. I came out here January 14th. I was at a 2014. So I've done her eight years. So four years there, four years at the beat. You know what I'm saying? So just got speed, man. Came out on the street team, working my way up. You know what I'm saying? Like going to the spots with Jay, Cadetty. You know what I'm saying? They not show up. I've been hosting the hyping, my whole life type thing. You feel me? So then, boom, I just kept networking. And then next thing you know, I got on earth. The same time Mike Brown got killed, St. Louis, like Ferguson. You feel me? So like Northside, North County, like grinding. You feel me? Boom, she kept grinding. Then next thing I got on earth, signed my paperwork. Then I did a song, slide in a challenge. Then next thing you know, the beat. Hit me with a phone call. Like at the Lancaster Band, played it. When I performed, did what I did. I got a phone call saying, can I sit down and talk? And that was four years ago. You know what I'm saying? I've been sitting down talking ever since. Wow. Kimberly, you said you were the mascot? Yeah. Gremlin. Man, wasn't that hot? Get paid for it, though. So I had to work with it. I always want them like, I know them suits be hot.   You know what I'm saying? They don't get to really just run down the field seriously. That's real. But I need them because without them I can't have a good time. There you go. Y'all ain't ready, man. Y'all got it, man. Y'all got it, got it. Let's stop playing with them. So, man, like, like, how is the radio world today? Versus, you know, used to, in order, you know, for artists to be seen or whatever they wanted to be heard on the radio. But I know it's not as extensive as it used to be. How much impact do you feel like the radio gives today's, you know? And I know you guys are going to be a little biased, but still give me your spiel on it. Just let me know. Well, I feel like, you know what I'm saying? Like, and this is just real talk, you know what I'm saying? The radio is pretty much, it stamps you as a superstar back in the day. Like, you didn't have social media, you know what I'm saying? To know you was a superstar, you heard your song on the radio. Now you got TikToks, you got different ways you can go viral and be seen. But all the radio do is really stamps that you are a superstar, that you have proven that your song and your single has gotten these amount of views and it's changing lives and it's doing X, Y, and Z.  That's why I feel like people will say we don't need radio now because we got different outlets to be heard. It's not just with the radio, you know what I'm saying? But that's still like the Mecca. That's still where labels and they're still the dream, the American dream is to have my song played and heard on the radio throughout the world. And the catch is we in Dallas, we're in the top four of the nation, like the top four Metroplex of a million people. You feel me? So the radio? What's the three? You got New York, you know what I'm saying? You feel me? You want to take it over to the West Coast, Cali? California, Philadelphia, Chicago. Even though Houston is big. I just wanted to ask you cause, what about Houston? We bigger than Houston because we got people on top of us, left, right, and then of course Houston under us. So you feel like y'all bigger than Houston? No, no, no, no. Yeah, okay. Yeah, this ain't one of America Brank's situations. We're going to Texas next weekend for the Texas Green Picnic, you know what I'm saying? Go put on. Shout out to the bros. Man.  Old Boy Prince shouted y'all out because he said, you guys really ride for the unplayed music. How do you play their music if they, you know, if it's not a part of the spines? How do you aggressively get, or do you have that ability to play a new artist's music if you like it? The internet is the truth. If Lil Wayne Daughter say you the truth, and I love y'all videos and she repost you, that's content and that's like putting on for Texas. And that's what 97.9 about, you know what I'm saying? As far as putting in for the community. And we like the faces of the community. So that's community dancing too. If the whole community doing this dance right here, hold on a minute, you gotta hit it one time. You gotta do it. You didn't see what I did in it? Yeah. I messed that whole up, didn't you? We got you. C4S. But the main thing is it's like, I think we're a new generation and we're a new face. And so we came up here and what the radio stations didn't do and wouldn't do. And man, like, I feel like this is my calling. You know, some people got different reasons, you know what I'm saying, to be in radio. So I feel like this was my calling was to always help and try to use my platform to help people. So when we see people like C4S that's putting in the work that's doing the numbers, that helps us be able to go and fight for them to our PD to where I don't know back then, they don't know if people was really fighting for people, if people just didn't see the talent. But like, I know for us, you know, we see the talent, we out here, we seeing the work, and if we can do what we can do, we're gonna try to help you, you know what I'm saying? It ain't got nothing to do with no time. Because you've met people who've been doing this and doing what you're doing before you, right? Right. So have they ever said like, man, we couldn't do that when it was our time, back in the days. You didn't hear them stories? Not so much. I heard they used to make a lot of money back in the day. Yeah, that's what I heard. So you're not making a lot of money now? We do all the muscle, all the heart. We want to see the city win. You feel me? Like, I knew three before we had to change. You know what I'm saying? Like, I've been around her enough to see, oh, that's all Dallas gotta do, be the next ATL. That's all we gotta do is just come together, just a little bit. Pat Pym got the juice right now. You know what I'm saying? He been had the juice. He need more credit. B-King, he the man. But Dallas dancers made B-King's song go crazy on TikTok, and that's when Drake saw it. And that's when Drake put B-King on, and life changed. Right. So how do you think Dallas can come together and make Dallas great? Because that's one thing we've been wondering. We've been like, who can really, because we always feel like it needs one person, or a group of people who can really merge the city together. Right. It's the structure. That's really, we got the talent. It's the structure, you know what I'm saying? Like, Atlanta, they have a structure. They know like, everyone knows what to do and how to do it, you know what I'm saying? And Dallas, what I see coming up, you got a lot of people that, you know, that's either to themselves. You got a lot of people that feel like, you know, they may be Hollywood, that they ain't got to do certain things. You got a lot of people that, oh, I don't rock with this person, so I'm not going to go rock with that person, you know what I'm saying? It's like a lot of, it's a lot of negative in Dallas. But that needs to go. Exactly, you know what I'm saying? And that's why it's like, we the new schools, so we coming into it and we seeing it, and we just trying to do what we can do to show that new face and show that like, we not really with that, you know what I'm saying? And we trying to put this structure, help put this structure together, you know what I'm saying? It's like if they see you messing with somebody, they don't want to mess with you, because they don't mess with that person. But I see changing slowly, but surely, where people like, well, they mess with both of us and they sort of cool, so, you know, it's okay, as long as you don't put them in that situation where that person is around when they're around and stuff like that, so. Right, exactly, exactly.  No, we didn't get the invitation, so. Y'all got the next one, y'all got the next one, so I went on with it.   If you call, we come in, if it's loved, then cause a lot of times, we just not linked. We don't know, exactly. That's how it is, but you guys definitely are doing what you're supposed to do, you know? I really don't just want to be hanging around nobody.   So let me ask you, I'm the big three, cause I saw you with Ice Cube. Yes, ma'am. So how was that? Like, it's major, you know what I'm saying? Like, again, Dallas is just that city who show love, and it's like three parts of Dallas, you know what I'm saying?  So it's really more than that, you know what I'm saying? But it just, it's a big thing, cause Ice Cube, y'all always got love for the city.   Shaq live here. I was about to say that Shaq live here. So a lot of people come into Dallas. A lot of businesses are moving to Dallas. So it's like Dallas, people are getting on to realize that Dallas is the next city. Because even like, we've been interviewing like a lot of entertainers, and they say that to get really big, you have to have to come through Dallas. Got to. To get exposure. Like I said, it's the number five market. Right. And it's a gift and a curse, because it's like, we've been in number five market, it's a lot harder to get on in Dallas because we're competing with the Los Angeles, the Philadelphia's, you know what I'm saying? Atlanta's like number seven or eight, you know what I'm saying? They're not even, so they can get away with a plan on one local artist. They may be like, they may be like, I don't know, I gotta check. They may be six, six. They have too far off one of those, you know what I'm saying? But yeah, I think DFW, they count the whole Dallas, Fort Worth, you know, Eulis. Waco. Waco. We almost pushed out to. But a lot of local artists always say that in order for them to get recognition, pretty sure they get more love outside the city than they get in the city. Why is that? That's everywhere. That's everywhere. That's like, that's really everywhere. That's everyone's problem. And it's almost one of those things where it's like, I go outside the city, I get more love. It convinces where you're home at that, oh, he really hot, you know what I'm saying? I feel like we tend to, oh, he from the city. It's one of things like people ain't gonna believe until you make it. But a lot of people keep comparing their city. I'm not gonna say just Dallas though, because I know a lot of other cities who do the same thing. They compare their cities to Atlanta because they feel like Atlanta support their own. What? Compared to every other city. No, that's not what Mr. Hitta said. It's not, it looks can be deceiving. Uh huh. Like, you know, it's not exactly what you might think. You know what I mean? They have their issues as well. Exactly. But at the end of the day, they just keep them within or something like that he said. Right, like the system, again, they have a system and musically and they got the labels there. They got, there's a music mecca, you know what I'm saying? Dallas is not a music city. This is a sports city. This is a money-making city, you know what I'm saying? To where culturally Atlanta is music, you know what I'm saying? So they have a lot more connections and they got a lot more structure to get things in place. Like we don't have a major record label here in Dallas that can help put on. We don't have a lot of music elements here in Dallas. So that's why they say if you make it out of Dallas, you can make it anywhere because it's tough coming out of this big, you know what I'm saying? Well, it's because of what you just said. You gotta have some labels. You gotta have some people that, even if it is, I mean, you got my boy, Radio Raheem. You got some people here. That was Saturday. That was Saturday. That's my brother. And Sean Conn just started his label. Yeah, you got Sean Conn. You got some people that's really trying to develop some things that really can move some things around in the city. We just gotta, you know, we just gotta... Support each other. Support each other. I think it's gonna happen.  All the noise. So when you started looking at the people that are tapped in, you know, shout out to Erica Banks, you know that? Whether you wanna, whether she love Dallas or not. You know what I'm saying? She took us to the Lush on record, man.  You feel me? Yeah, we had to go about that. What did y'all say to her? We said, I said, where is your A&R at? Where is your A&R at? What did she say? What did she say?  It's like, what did she say when y'all asked her about it? She said, I'm gonna say it. She said, let's be real. We don't talk about that. We'll talk, we'll talk. She said, like, she love Dallas, you know what I'm saying? She's just being real, you know what I'm saying?  So not realizing, like, hey, you gotta know how to play the internet. You gotta know how to answer certain questions. Sometimes you can't be too real and just say the first thing to come to your mind.  So when you say things like, hey. And she didn't realize her microphone now. Like she is perceived as the queen of, like the princess of Dallas, you know what I'm saying? On the rap side, you know what I'm saying? To make it that far to accomplish what she's accomplished. You know what I'm saying? With the hollyberry and all that. So she didn't realize that. But when we sat there, you know what I'm saying?  Like sis, you feel me? She's like, oh, okay. It was like one of them. You right? She got at me one day about something that was said on here. You gotta realize I picked her out early, man. Like I always tell that story, but I'm gonna pass by that. But she hit me up because somebody came over here and said something about it. But at the end of the day, you know, that's the part of this, man. You know, I can't control. You know, once you say something like that, these other people gonna try them in. And you know, at the end of the day is love. You know, we definitely love machines over here. And one thing we definitely try to do, if you come on this show and you say something about a situation because it's your opinion. And it's maybe you are in that situation. You were actually there. So it's your point of view. The other person can come on here and tell their side as well. Because that's what we want. We don't want anything that's said on our show to be one-sided. We always open our doors for the next person to come back and say, you know what, but this is mine. You'll see it back in full here in a minute. You ain't seen them over here. I know you ain't just seen them over here. Yeah, it's on, man, it's on. But at the end of the day, we hope it's all love. But we can't control what people say behind these mics. Nigga get his chest stuck out out there. Man, look. Yeah, nigga, what else? Boss talk, nigga. Boss talk, y'all got the cameras here. Bring it out of here, bring it out of here. I want to command job, like I've been saying, y'all get heavy and heavy on the internet. Everybody tapping on it. Calamore came through, and I was like, ah, there it is. That's my boy right there. Yeah, Calamore. I got to drop this interview, too. I ain't even dropped it yet. It's a lot to it, though. He got a lot of elements, man, that got, he been through a lot. I think a lot of times people don't realize people's story, their back stories, you know, like when you start talking about single parenthood and, you know, going to prison and all that stuff, it brings a lot out in a conversation. So I think that's something that we do a little bit more detail than like a radio station where we get to really sit here and talk to you about, like I could ask you, like, nigga, you know what I'm saying? You got any kids? Yeah, yes, sir. How many you got? I got one. Damn, man. Girl, I think I'm done, too. Low sperm count. What, are you done? I'll tell you. I got a low sperm count. No, I'll pull out a game of food. You see stuff like that? Yeah. This is like, then you start talking about it, you know what I'm saying? How many you got? I just had my first one. It's your first one. How old are you? How old are you? I'm 31. You almost didn't get it, huh? I tried to hold out till I was 33 to be honest. You don't want to be Jesus' age, you know what I'm saying? He purposely did it. Boy and girl. Girl, I got a little girl. Both of y'all are girls. The niggas can't push out no boys, but it's cool. I'm chillin'. Y'all don't go broke. It was karma. You know, girls be empty in that pocket that she fall. Yeah, you ain't lying. But let me ask you, both of you, the same question. Tell me something that happened to you back in the past somewhere down there that made you into the man that you are today. I like to hear people about their struggles and stuff like that because there are people who are watching the show that are going through something maybe similar or the same exact thing that you already been through when you overcame. And they might not see their outcome yet. You know what I mean? And they might turn to something like suicide or whatever. So anyhow, we can help somebody we try to. So start off with you. I would say when I was about, so yeah, I want to say when I was about six, my mom got kidnapped by this guy she was dating, you know what I'm saying? And man, I woke up, like I'm five, five or six years old. I wake up, I look at my mom's room. I see the glass broken and blood all over the ground. And I'm just screaming out for my mom. Like the door is wide open. And so I'm just in the house alone. And man, somehow my mom was gone for like two days. And somehow she ended up getting away. I'm at a grocery store. She slid somebody a letter. Like, hey, this guy is kidding at me. Whoop-dee-whop-dee-whoop, call the police, X, Y, and Z. So once I thought I would have lost my mom, you know what I'm saying? Like I wouldn't have grew up without my mom.  So it was just like that brought it out of me to be like, you know, I got to get it. I got to make it. I can't even be regular. Like this, he could have came and killed the family. You know what I'm saying? It was just me and my mom. And luckily she's still here today. But that pushed my drive to be like, man, I got to conquer. I can conquer anything. We can get past anything. We can boost my drive to go out and really make some of myself. You know what I'm saying? What was your father? Huh? What was your father? Uh, I don't know. You never met him? I didn't meet my father till I was 19, in college. 19? Yeah. He just decided to show up.  He was going to go home or something. What is nigga doing? No, man. He's a good dude though. You know what I'm saying? What was he at? He's in Louisiana. I mean he said, where are you being? I'm sure you asked him that question. He was in the army overseas. You know what I'm saying? He just got back like, I want to say like five years ago, he's been back in the States, but from that time on, he had a lot of kids, bro. It's like, it's like non of us. A rolling stone. Yeah, so he has a lot of kids, bro. So he went to the army and was up, been overseas like for the longest, but once we started tapping in, it was all love.  Um, and life happens. Literally. Did your mom know the person who kidnapped her? Oh, yeah. She was dating him. Yeah. So she didn't see the signs and all of that stuff? Man, she did. You know what I'm saying?  I don't know. It was just bad choices in man. You know what I'm saying? I see my mom get beat up a lot. You know what I'm saying? About different individuals. So it was just one of those things to where we didn't know it was going to lead to that. How did that affect your relationships as you got older? I know I never wanted to see that growing up. So I know the women I chose or who I was with. I just knew, like, I stay away from toxic women. Stay, you know what I'm saying? Be, you don't need to put yourself in no situation to go that route. And I never want to see that.  At a young age. So yeah, that definitely hard in my heart to, man. I feel like go out, change my life and get to it. And you? Man, yeah, I'm all right. He's skilled. He's skilled. He's skilled. That nigga went hard, didn't he?    You ain't got nothing for us, do you? Yeah, my daddy used to, my daddy, he didn't come back from the store one day. Yeah, nigga. What you got? It was out there in the cold. Nah, man, my pop's in heaven, man. I just been crying right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he used to be here. For real, there we go. They know each other. Yeah, yeah, yeah. My mom, too. All of them up there. Man, I know. At the end of the day, you know, but that's a situation in itself. How old was you when you lost your father? I'm 32, they have it like 20, 27, 26. Yeah. You feel me? Yeah. I became a dad, lost my dad in the same eight months. Yeah, see, all this stuff matters, man. But you least got to spend that time with him, right? Yeah, that's the dope part. Yeah, man, so having that in mind, I know he ain't get that at all. That's right. At all, yeah. I got a brother locked down right now, you know what I'm saying? And another brother. So your brother on lock? Yeah, on lock, he just came home. He can't, look crazy, think about it. You know what I'm saying? And this is, I don't even know. Came home and flipped that guy. Yeah, came home, did what he's supposed to do. And we came home like pandemic hit, you know what I'm saying? Like 2020 when everybody had to go in the house, you know what I'm saying? Put the gloves on and go in the store with the man. He came home like the weekend of the whole country shutting down. So it been gone four years, come home. And it's like, damn, I can't even get outside, everybody. When I went in, everybody, you can't wear no mask, you know, no gloves. Not everybody wearing them. Man, don't feel bad, man. You know, my partner, he didn't even make it from home. He messed up and was right back in there before he could even make it to the house. Them niggas be, it's hard out here sometimes. Yeah, for sure. Especially when you're trying to figure it all out again. How long was he gone the first time? Four years. Okay. You know what I'm saying?  But they got divorced like she was fifth grade. So I was the only son. You know, all seven kids really get the whole fatherhood treatment. You feel me? So yeah, so now when it's time to do, you know what I'm saying? I'm a junior, same name and everything, you feel me? So, but he always told me, man, I don't even want to say he's on the world.  But like St. Louis and East St. Louis, like we rock with St. Louis and East St. Louis, but bro, we don't really rock with East St. Louis like that. But you know, shout out to Chingin. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't know what happened. Yeah, we rock with it. I had to. I don't know, I don't know what happened. Yeah, yeah, but we rock with Raw Reese, you know what I'm saying? We all had Nelly, but Chingin, Chingin was a little different than Nelly. I don't know, there's a lot of stuff out there on these media waves, man. I don't know if it's true. I don't know, you know something? Yeah, that's what I thought. Shout out to that boy, Chingin, man. Really, really, man. Wow. Thank you, I don't know what the hell you're doing, though.

He say, man, these niggas is good. I say, man, I don't care, nigga. I don't know them niggas, man. That's what they say, you tell me. Say, I don't know these niggas, man. But at the end of the day, I just like to get y'all hell. That's what we need, man. We need something real in the city, man. I appreciate you guys, man. Make sure you guys really look out for those youngsters, man. Y'all got to put y'all in the position. Don't be fakin', be aggressive. Walk in that office and ask nigga, man. We need to play some of these local people music, something like that. Else I'm goin' over there and get my own part and interview people. Take the spot on interviews, man.  Quit being scary. Y'all need to deal with these people in a way that eventually it'll benefit y'all. That's why we wanted to come up in here just to shed light on things that people may not know about the radio or stuff that, what it really takes, you know what I'm sayin'? So, just information, because I feel like, again, with Dallas, it's the structure of people don't know what to do or how to do it, you know what I'm sayin'? Or what's important or what gets them and these people faces that we can vouch for them and go up the bat form, you know what I'm sayin'? So, and just how this whole thing works. You sound real professional, but let me just be real with you right, Quinn. A lot of niggas is talkin' about you radio folks. I brought West, according to what I'm hearin', the radio is what got him noticed and got him a deal. Say the radio stations were pushin' for him down there. Certain people is really talkin' about that and say that the radio station not helpin' people in Dallas like that. I'm just bein' real. Like they don't put the music out there. They don't pile out of these people name out and really go hard for these people. Y'all can change this city, man. Check this out. Don't let people out make it. 80% of the music I hear, people are like, hey, check this out. Let me hear this, play this.  You know what I'm sayin'? My report card, I gave Ericka Banks a first interview. You know what I'm sayin'? I vouched for Mode 3 on a couple songs, you know what I'm sayin'? But everything, this is what I'm sendin', buckle what I'm sayin', everything don't transfer over to a radio type of song. Yes, it go hard. Yes, you hit.  Okay.   You know, nigga, what about the clean version? You get clean version. I'ma be listenin' to that nigga. It's gonna be hard. They gotta transfer over, you know what I'm sayin'? And first, broke a love on it, you know what I'm sayin'? I'm like, cause it took a little while for 3 to get back to that hook before Kevin Gates got on. So it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, I can just tell you right now, we gotta make sure that we understand the algorithm of where things are today. And we gotta try to figure it out in a way to where it makes sense for the masses. Our people need your help. Right. You know what I'm sayin'? So we got a lot of work to do, people watchin'. All right? So. Say man, when y'all number four in Houston is number what? Number six. Uh, L.D. Did you hear that? Houston number six, nigga. Yeah. It's love, man. It's love. Houston number six. Man, oh look, man. But now I appreciate you guys, man. Big love. Yes, sir. Anything else you got for us? I just had one more question. Damn. Up to us. Up to us.  Yeah. They changed our lives. Changed our lives right now. That's why we the one that I never showed. Like when I started to say like, Who was that person? It was Juicy J. Juicy J. You feel me?  He don't, he like that rad jacuzzi. Hey, we made a song. He tell you, they all look ratchet. Juicy J. He like that.  Five one, get behind one. We got about 5.8 million. He didn't niggas that big as it all the mic had. Yeah. I don't know about that nigga. First and best. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Three, six, five million, man. One time with Juicy, man.  Show for show, man. Well, how he changed our life? Shoot, pretty much, man. We was at a club. You probably heard about it, but we got this club hot, club prom, you know what I'm saying? That was up not too long ago. So we used to be in a club and he'll be rocking it, man. So he used, I don't know if you ever heard him in a club, but his voice, where he can get people to move. Like this is like one of the top MCs I've ever heard, bro. And he used to say this thing where like, man, find one, get behind one. Like he was telling the girl, the fellas to find a chicken, get behind one. Cause it was a lot of dudes that be too cool, standing against the wall and stuff. So he'd be like, man, find one, get behind one, find one, get behind one. And I'll see this champ. And I'm as a DJ, like he's around dancing on stage and stuff, but as a DJ, I'm watching the crowd get in tune with what he's saying. So I'm like, bro, we got to turn this into a song. We in the club and we on the radio at the same time. Get the live broadcast. I never did talk on the radio with the live broadcast ever in my life. So I got through on some fire then he played that, that black youngster booty, the two, two, shake that booty. So I'm trying to entertain these people who in the room, 300 people. And it's like 3 million people listening on a Saturday night. So I'm like, find one, get behind one. But P, we need some booties in motion. We need some booties in motion. Find one, get behind one. So this went on for like nine months. And digital norms say when him and LaRawney went on tour, they would be using their check to start off they set. So shout out to LaRawney, shout out to digital norm. You know what I'm saying? But he's like, man, I need to make a beat off that. Y'all need to make that. And we can't play everything on the radio as we get, you know, some copyright infringement. So it just so happened, we have finally set still around November, you know what I'm saying? Two years ago and we made the beat from scratch. For nothing. You know what I'm saying? Fast forward, it was the beat in my file. I'm like, we call it BIM, booties in motion. We need some booties in motion. The next day, the next day that we made the beat, like we made the beat at my house, like in my room, me and my co-producer, shout out to my god, Loadies before Quacho. And but we made that beat in about 20 minutes. And like I said, the next day, the next day came in for promo. The song Neighbors, it just came out. He was on the promo with Travis Scott. I'm interviewing, we going, I know I'm wrapping up the interview 19 minutes later. And it's a whole interview on camera, film. And I'm like, man, I'm just trying to give him a rap or something for the content. You know what I'm saying? And I got to go on my email, find a beat. I can't go on YouTube copyright, but I got this beat in my email. I'm like, oh, man, let's play this. I played the beat. And he come on, he's like, hmm, he's like, what's this? I'm like, oh, this, it's called B.I.M. You know what I'm saying? We need some booties in motion. Yeah, we need some booty, buy one, get buy one, send it to him. He was like, oh, it's hard. I'm gonna get on there. He was about this length apart. He said, I'm gonna get on there. It's hard. I said, yeah. Ranch over, shook his hands, shake my hand. Like this. It was a, it was a, it was a, it was a, N-I-G-G-A type of like, shoot!  Yeah, he said, yo, Tim. And he did it. About two days later. Two verses. Two verses, and a hook. And a hook. He did the whole song. Yeah, we went to LA, LAX, Florida, boom. Shot the video, came back. We had 5.8 million views right now, you know what I'm saying? Shout out. That's awesome. And I started not letting you niggas on my show. You're saying my job views niggas? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I seen that, I said, wait a minute, niggas jabbing? Wait a minute. Yes. Niggas y'all got five. I didn't even know, niggas. I'm crazy over here with it. But I can't believe y'all, I like to messed up. You see how niggas just pushing niggas on me? And I'm finally getting blessed. And look, we dropped that album. And like this is helping out the city. And we just want to bring people aware of what we're doing and using our platform. So we just dropped the album in January. And our album consists of Dallas, local artists, and mainstream artists that we built relationships with. And we collabed them. So that's like our thing, what we doing. We taking artists and we making actual hits and songs with these local artists, you know what I'm saying? So that's our movement. That's just how we giving back to the city and just trying to make it work, you know what I'm saying? That's big. Y'all got Juicy J on that thing, something like that. Project Pat, we got Project Pat too. Yeah, we got Project Pat on it. Little Ronnie, Ericka Banks, part of the Pat long one. You know, them niggas the only one got an Oscar, man. Yeah.

It's the first album, you know what I'm saying? And we just really, we on a radio. So we can't really work it as artists. So that's the thing. We on a radio. So it's time now. Now we trying to find that way of being on a radio. I'm just trying to figure it out. I'm just trying to figure it out. Opportunity to miss you, nigga. You better try to, hey, man, listen, man.

Boss talk, yeah. You should hear the whole thing. It's so hard. Yeah, that's how I go down, man.  That's how that your boy's a unicorn.


So now at this point coming back to that model that we had in place before Taking a look at how we want to have our sources speaking to our sub questions and our sub questions speaking to our inquiry question Once we get all those sub question drafted out We still need to kind of think about like what kind of sources are we going to be looking at before in relation to our Subquestions because depending on the type of question that you're going to be asking you might need some very different types of sources Plus there's always going to be the requirements of your assignment So for example, if I'm doing my my research on the BP impacts on great blue herons I'm going to be asking all those different questions where I'm going to be looking for some different data sources We're in some cases It's going to be government documents that are going to be telling me things about the policies and that kind of thing Then I might be looking for some scientific articles that take a look at some of the Impacts on wildlife and some scientific articles that talk about the habitat needs of great blue herons as well So I have a bunch of different things that I might be looking for I might even be looking for some engineering documents that talk about how the mitigation happens in terms of some environmental engineering topics and So I'm going to be looking also in some places I'm going to be looking for things that might be local government documents like Wacom County based documents some Other instances I might be looking for state documents like Washington State documents and then even federal documents as well That help to inform where I might be going with this particular topic It's important to keep in mind that these different sources will be speaking to those some questions in different ways And you have a couple different things that you might be pulling from in order to Accomplish what you need to so a peer-reviewed source that that's something where it has gone through a process That usually indicates that that information is going to be more reliable or is more trustworthy in some way So typically what happens with the peer-reviewed process is that somebody Who is either an expert or an emerging expert in a particular area will write an article send it into an editor who will send it out to Peer reviewers hopefully blind peer reviewers, but in some you know different journals have different ways that they go about doing this And they will basically indicate whether or not there's anything that needs to be fixed whether the article should be accepted whether the article should be accepted with revisions and they provide that information to the editor who sends it back to the person who wrote it and Sometimes the this can be a process that can take a while depending on The journal and the article itself as well and before something actually gets published So it's not like new sources where something can get published, you know within hours or or days It's going to take a little bit Longer because it's going through a much more rigorous review process where different experts are making sure that what is coming through Is going to be a little bit more reliable reliable now This is not a perfect process. So that's something to keep in mind. There are bad peer-reviewed articles out there So it's not totally perfect by any stretch of the imagination But it is something that means that those sources tend to be a little bit better Of course readings those can be good sources to be using because often times they're on your topic and they're oftentimes good scholarly sources Primary source not depending on the discipline you're in you might be viewing primary sources slightly differently and what the intention is here is that it's a Type of source that is like either raw data or information that comes directly from the source So for example, if I actually went out and conducted a study on the Great Blue Herons at Cherry Point and actually observed some of their Their habits and how they interact with their habitat that would be primary source data because it'd be data that I collected but it could also include other forms of data such as something where it could be a New story that comes from a particular time period it could be Testimonials that come from people who hadn't experienced with something where they are close to The topic so there's a number of different things that can be considered primary sources and they can again very Depending on that the discipline that you're talking about
