Well, over there it was still 18 and they had this revolving band stage.
00:04:23.562 --> 00:04:28.247
So one band was playing, the band that was coming on would be playing the same song and it would revolve.

00:04:41.637 --> 00:04:48.432
Pelican, I don't think so I do.
00:04:49.540 --> 00:04:51.283
You can dress them up, but you can't take them anywhere.
00:04:51.302 --> 00:04:52.786
I've got my Traveling Tom's coffee truck.
00:04:52.786 --> 00:04:53.307
We already did that, no.
00:04:53.327 --> 00:04:53.869
I've got mine.
00:04:53.869 --> 00:04:55.632
Though You've already got yours, I've got mine.

Tech Force Foundation is soliciting feedback from new technicians in high school and post-secondary students enrolled in automotive training programs for its inaugural Tech Talk survey.
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:38.130
Nonprofit foundation, which works with students and professional technicians as they further their careers, wants to glean I like that word, glean the insights and perspectives from aspiring technician students and working technicians in their first two years of employment.
00:05:38.130 --> 00:05:46.170
Interesting Foundation said there are currently three technician openings for every tech school or community college graduate.
00:05:46.170 --> 00:06:00.389
Wow, part of the problem is young techs quit after a short time on the job Survey is open to all young technicians in the automotive, aviation, collision, diesel restoration, welding and other related programs.
00:06:00.389 --> 00:06:02.379

Okay, ford Motor Company has issued a call to action to suppliers asking for help reducing costs on electric vehicle production, where the automaker is bleeding billions of dollars.
00:06:30.891 --> 00:06:36.850
The memo offers a look into how heavily Ford is leaning on suppliers to help with EVs.
00:06:36.850 --> 00:06:46.031
It comes even as many of those suppliers grapple with dramatically lower volumes and production delays by Ford and other customers.
00:06:46.031 --> 00:06:59.035
The EV business has been an enormous money loser for Ford, which anticipates, its Model E unit will rack up $5.5 billion in losses this year.
00:06:59.035 --> 00:07:05.285
The automaker's competitors, especially General Motors, have poured massive investments into EVs.
00:07:05.285 --> 00:07:12.899
In the battle against Tesla and fast-rising Chinese automakers, they had some serious doo-doo over there.
00:07:13.201 --> 00:07:21.303
I'm telling you how they can justify continuing Politics aside.
00:07:21.303 --> 00:07:23.925
Just look at the money, just look at the dollars and cents.
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:26.048
Well, it's all about the politics actually.
00:07:26.048 --> 00:07:30.233
I don't know what's happened.
00:07:30.334 --> 00:07:32.425

00:07:32.425 --> 00:07:37.149
Tom Mach-E's, mach-e's, apparently, so he's Mach-E'd out, he's Mach-E'd out.
00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:38.877
Serene is on the floor over there.
00:07:38.877 --> 00:07:40.581
He just fell out over there.
00:07:40.581 --> 00:08:08.870
Us safety regulators investigating Alphabet-owned Waymo after reports that its autonomous driving systems led to collisions or violated traffic laws, and it's said it received 22 reports of incidents where vehicles equipped with Waymo's fifth-generation autonomous driving systems were either involved in crashes with stationary or semi-stationary objects, collided with parked cars or generally violated traffic safety laws.
00:08:08.870 --> 00:08:19.632
Initial evaluation confirmed Waymo's autonomous driving system was either engaged during each incident or disengaged moments before the incident, according to NHTSA.
00:08:19.632 --> 00:08:21.487
These stories from Automotive News.
00:08:21.487 --> 00:08:24.487
So don't get in a Waymo car.
00:08:25.209 --> 00:08:25.331
No.
00:08:26.380 --> 00:08:27.663
All that stuff is.
00:08:27.663 --> 00:08:31.029
They pushed it too fast, too soon.
00:08:31.050 --> 00:08:32.493
They did it way more Waymo.
00:08:33.299 --> 00:08:35.565
They did it way more than they should have.
00:08:35.565 --> 00:08:36.267
Yeah exactly.
00:08:37.408 --> 00:08:42.427
Ours Waymo Way more than they should have Waymo fast.
00:08:43.610 --> 00:08:43.951

We're going to do it, even if it snows, we're going to do it, yeah.
00:09:28.621 --> 00:09:30.827

00:09:30.827 --> 00:09:32.491
Okay, and we're going to be there.
00:09:32.879 --> 00:09:39.153

Thanks so much for joining us for our live Saturday broadcast here from Gulf Coast Auto Shield and I have to tell you that if you're interested in coming out, please come on out.
00:13:40.817 --> 00:13:47.049
They're going to be here a few hours after we leave, but it's a great event.
00:13:47.049 --> 00:13:51.890
Gulf Coast Auto Shield is on the West Sam Houston Parkway.
00:13:52.937 --> 00:14:03.145
The we'll call it the yes, but I think that it doesn't switch over to the South Sam Houston till 98.
00:14:03.145 --> 00:14:12.712
So this would be the West Sam Houston Parkway and you take the first exit after 59.
00:14:12.712 --> 00:14:16.004
Yeah, Going southbound which?
00:14:16.065 --> 00:14:17.509
is Belford On the west belt?
00:14:17.509 --> 00:14:21.087
Is that Belford Southbound and down and then we're right on the right-hand side.
00:14:21.341 --> 00:14:24.090
It's a big warehouse office, complex thing.
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:25.592
Yeah, there's a lot of them that look the same.
00:14:25.592 --> 00:14:28.017
So it's kind of down towards the end If you pass it.
00:14:28.057 --> 00:14:28.701
You get to airport.
00:14:28.701 --> 00:14:32.249
You're just going to have to go back around underneath the freeway and go back around.
00:14:32.279 --> 00:14:33.787
You'll find us, we're here.
00:14:34.883 --> 00:14:35.975

Anyway, we're the stuff.
00:14:49.434 --> 00:14:53.590
Yeah, good luck at getting it all out of here, because the parking lot back here in the back is full.
00:14:53.649 --> 00:14:54.312
I see that.
00:14:55.880 --> 00:14:57.427
Kind of a hidden cruise in today.
00:14:57.720 --> 00:14:59.280

00:15:31.065 --> 00:15:31.365
Oh okay, sorry.
00:15:31.365 --> 00:15:35.258
Now the Mud Bug guy the name of his business is Out the Mud, not Out of the Mud, but Out the Mud.
00:15:35.278 --> 00:15:35.960
Yeah, I got a short one.
00:15:36.019 --> 00:15:37.753
It could be kind of a Louisiana thing Out the Mud.
00:15:37.995 --> 00:15:38.740
Crawfishcom yeah.
00:15:39.419 --> 00:15:44.331

Wow, they cater Out the mud crawfish.
00:15:49.019 --> 00:15:52.865
Yeah, we got some crawfish farms over near me, right there off Interstate 10.
00:15:53.160 --> 00:15:54.846
Well, I heard there's been a shortage this year.
00:15:54.846 --> 00:15:56.274
Is that true?
00:15:57.221 --> 00:15:58.509
We haven't had any problem getting them.
00:15:58.509 --> 00:16:07.280
So when you farm crawfish do they have like little saddles on them, Got to corral them into the pen and all that.
00:16:07.370 --> 00:16:08.735
Well, they kind of corral them into.
00:16:08.735 --> 00:16:12.356
They got the dikes with the water, so they actually use scuba gear to go in and get them.
00:16:12.356 --> 00:16:14.232
I got you Because they're under the water.
00:16:14.553 --> 00:16:17.181
Oh okay, Making sure Scuba gear.
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:22.532
Yeah, have you ever seen a scuba gear?
00:16:22.532 --> 00:16:22.873
I don't think so.
00:16:22.873 --> 00:16:27.082
You know, there are some things that we know nothing about and are proud to say we know nothing about.
00:16:27.129 --> 00:16:29.615
They do have traps for them, though they do put out traps for them.
00:16:29.634 --> 00:16:30.297
Is that what it is?
00:16:30.297 --> 00:16:31.870
Yeah, kind of like crab traps.
00:16:31.910 --> 00:16:34.854
They put them out, bait them, can't get it out.
00:16:34.994 --> 00:16:37.996
I thought it was like a big, big dipping net and they just kind of shoveled them in.
