Hi, this Alonzo Bowden. I want to welcome you to episode 105 of my podcast, who's paying attention.

0:23.4

Tonight was a pretty landmark night in television. It was the last broadcast of David Letterman. Like everyone else, I got to say

0:29.4

congrats. It was a hell of a run, 33 years. I never got on the show, but I don't hold that

0:35.4

against them. I personally loved the NBC show more than the CBS show because it was a bit more irreverent,

0:43.3

but it was a good wrap-up. There's no way to wrap up 33 years in one night, but he had

0:49.3

some great segments, stars doing top 10 things they wish they'd said to Dave and on and on and I love the props he gave to

0:57.1

Paul Schaefer and the band and the music over the years and all it was a good show as these wrap-up shows go as these retirement shows go

1:05.6

It was a good show. It was a great job

1:08.1

Letterman looked like he had fun and what more could you want than that.

1:13.5

So that being said, I'm happy for him. Good luck. God bless. Godspeed, I guess. I don't know what to say to a retired David Letterman, but I don't have to worry about it because I won't be meeting him.

1:28.0

So getting into the news, man, there's been some things since we've last talked, but I have

1:36.9

to talk about Waco. I have to talk about, and I'm sorry to laugh, but this shootout in Waco, if you don't know what I'm talking about,

1:47.6

Sunday afternoon in Waco, Texas, at a place called Twin Peaks, which is a version of Hooters,

1:54.7

and I think you can guess what the Twin Peaks are at that restaurant, they have biker nights.

1:59.6

And the police had been telling them to stop

2:02.6

having biker nights because rival biker gangs were showing up and the police knew something

2:08.3

was going to jump off. And when I say the police knew something was going to jump off, I mean,

2:12.6

not only was there a police presence there, there was actually a swap team presence on site. Now, you know, you know it's

2:20.0

going to be a bad Sunday brunch when there's a SWAT team in the parking lot. So I'm not even sure

2:25.4

why innocent families and people not involved in biker gangs were there, but they were. Fortunately,

2:33.2

none of them got hurt lots of bullets fired nine

2:36.4

people killed all members of biker gangs and let's get this biker thing straight for those who don't
