Hello, everyone, and welcome to another episode of Getting Hammered.

I'm your host, Mary Catherine Ham.

I am with my co-host, Vic Mattis, of the Washington Free Beacon.

I'm just going to start by putting a general content

warning on this entire episode. If you are generally listening with kids, just watch out because

the content itself is just very serious. And we will get to the war in Israel and the attack on

Israel and some details thereof. Before that, we'll have something a little

lighter, though. We are your morning show for any hour. And how are you doing, Vic?

Hello, Mary Catherine. I'm doing fine for people watching on YouTube. We have a camera

difficulty, but thank God it was only on my face. And so you have the wide shot of us,

and you have wonderful, delightful close-ups of Mary Catherine on camera one. Camera three,

it's sort of like that scene in Tootsie where the control, the guy in control room says,

how far do you want me to back up? And he says, how about try Cleveland? It's a trick Cleveland.

Doing fine. Went to Dallas, Texas to visit my friend Peter Lowe, my college buddy. It brought my son with me.

We'd been there about five years ago. So we enjoyed because Kate and our daughter went on a ladies' trip to New York City with a cousin and the mom. And so it was

we split up. And Texas is great. And we went to the Texas, the state fair of Texas on Saturday,

which is also coinciding with the Cotton Bowl and the Texas OU game. That's a big one.

That was something. Dramatic fashion. In dramatic fashion again. I mean, they've been pretty close games in the last few years.

And Texas was favored to when I think by four in Oklahoma, or as the Texans call it, Little Texas.

It's like to pat them on the head.

Right.

Pulled off the upset.
