The Hackberry Chronicles series will be discontinued effective today, 12-10-24. This audio shares why, and how people can continue listening to the content of the Chronicles, as well as reading the originals.
3 men who will change all; disobedient nations ruined; not a secret coming!; the Rosetta Stone of Tribulation prophecy; a trouble-free church?
Articles in this section include a discussion of the last "hour", the traditional teaching of the sheep and goats (Matthew 25), and what peace we can expect when.
Alas, Babylon! Earth's Final Empire. Who shall reign with Jesus? Supper with Jesus.
This next book is a series of articles on eschatology: The ruler before antichrist; coming soon? At hand? The Third Temple; Wormwood.
Epilogue/Summary of "Who is the antichrist?" . More about antichrist.
The "seven-chapter solution" to the antichrist mystery now moves to the book of Revelation and Paul's second letter to the Thessalonians. Clear. But difficult.
Showing how Daniel 8, Daniel 11, Daniel 12, all say the same thing about the sign Jesus sent us to in Matthew 24:15:The abomination of desolation "spoken of by the prophet Daniel".
Jesus points us to Daniel so to Daniel we go, in his prophecies of chapter 8 and 9, which speak of the "abomination of desolation" hundreds of years before Jesus came to earth, but placed them, as Jesus did, in our future still!
The sign that the disciples asked for is "the abomination of desolation." (Matthew 24:15). Jesus directed us to go to Daniel for further explanation.
When we read every verse and believe it as it is, the Scriptures come alive to us. Here is a seven-chapter solution to the age-old question.
Who will be in that Kingdom? What will life be like in the coming Kingdom? What is our task now?
The awful and wonderful day of the Lord is coming. 1000 years. New heavens and New Earth.
"Kingdom" in the teachings and life experiences of Jesus and the apostles. All the Gospels and many epistles mention the Kingdom.
Tracing the "Kingdom" all the way from Eden to the parables of Jesus. It's everywhere!
More pre-trib questions answered. A summary of the book. References. Intro to book 3.
More comments on "Imminence". Then, a look at Dave Hunt's supposed "distinctions" between the "rapture" and the second coming.
Introduction to a study of the pretribulation rapture, popular throughout the Western Church. Definitions. History.
A clear presentation of the end times 2600 years ago! The demise of the antichrist. Resurrections. Daniel's questions answered.
A strange transition takes place in the text as Daniel shifts from our past to our future, from the history of Antiochus Epiphanes to the prediction of the man of sin.
North and South continue to struggle for dominance. Rome intervenes. Antiochus is stopped and vents his anger on Israel. Background of why Israel is a target of Epiphanes.
Antiochus Epiphanes emerges as the new ruler of the Kingdom of the North. Is he a type of antichrist? Is he antichrist himself?
Ongoing conflicts between North And South, called in history the "Syrian Wars" perfectly fulfill Daniel's predictions.
The accurate prediction of the "Successor" Wars, that immediately followed the death of Alexander. Daniel predicts the rise to power of the King of the South (Egypt) and the King of the North (Greater "Syria").
The rise and conquest of Alexander the Great, foretold exactly by the prophet centuries before it came to pass...
Preparation of God's man for a magnificent prophecy. The prophecy begins. Three Persian kings foretold.
Volume 1 of the Chronicles begins with the Last Message of Daniel. In this episode, an introduction to the man Daniel and his book. A defense against those who have attacked the veracity of the man and his writing.
An introduction to a new series, the collection of my writings I have named "The Hackberry Chronicles." The 12-volume set is available online, but my intention is to bring them to you as audios in weeks and months to come, one day at a time.
Don calls up Kirk Stansel from Hackberry Rod And Gun to go over his first day of being in the Duck blinds, if there were any tidal surges as Francine passed by over in Hackberry, and Redfish and Trout are still being caught in droves during this transitional period.
Don heads out west to Hackberry Rod And Gun with Kirk Stansel to cover catching Trout this past week as the winds died down a bit, Marker 54 is making waves again, where you can get it around the Hackberry area, and how others are getting ready for the new Redfish changes this upcoming Thursday?
Cap't Kirk Stansel, of Hackberry Rod And Gun, drops by to discuss some of this week's storms as the weather seems to be making up for not raining enough last year making it difficult to chase Trout, how muddy water has been as of late, and how are Redfish and Flounder doing over in Hackberry?
In part three of this historic Route 66 series, we hit up Arizona and check out several Ghost Towns, almost ghost towns and totally not ghost towns.

Capt. Kirk of Hackberry Rod And Gun joins Don to discuss what kind of week they had following heavy and consistent rain, Trout might not be on the menu much due to the weather and conditions if the Flounder closure helps the population, and some good kayak spots out around Hackberry, and what do we need to help clear out some of this freshwater?
Don is joined by Kirk Stansel of Hackberry Rod and Gun to cover things out West, as the water is starting to come back to the Hackberry area which means Trout are back on the menu, what Kirk uses when the Trout are under birds, where the Red Fish have been coming from as they've stuck mainly to the shoreline, and how much has the change in limits affected fishermen coming from Texas?
Don dives into what is going on as we barrel towards Summer, Robbie Campo tells all about his recent Turkey hunting trip and what bridges are closed this weekend around the Shell Beach area, live bait might not be on the menu today, and Red Snapper season is underway with the first week behind us before Kirk Stansel joins to discuss Trout and water making their way back to Hackberry, and Daryl Carpenter jumps right on it as Speckled Trout are shining bright this weekend!

Three years in to World War I, a $5 million construction project began on the northwest side of Waco. A few months later in September of 1917, the new training headquarters Camp MacArthur welcomed 18,000 troops from Michigan and Wisconsin. Throughout the rest of the war, the thousands of soldiers stationed at Camp MacArthur became a part of Waco's culture. Mary Sendón remembers the impact the camp had on her father's shoe business: "The soldiers began to come to town and have their work done in town. They'd come to my dad's shop. He had a nice big shop where you could sit around and read newspapers, or maybe he'd have magazines there where they—they'd wait. And he always had that place full of soldiers. In fact, he had one of them come in there wanting to work for him one day. (laughs) But he would work late on Saturday night. He'd work day and night, not only on Saturday nights but on weeknights to catch up. Then pretty soon, the—the government gave him a contract to take care of the officers' boots. They all had to have so much done to their boots all the time. (laughs) Of course, the enlisted men would just come and have their own shoes fixed, you know. But he had a contract for those officers' boots. He made a lot of money during the war. That was a bonanza for him. And that's where he got really established." During the life of the camp, strong ties were formed, as Sendón explains: "So many of the soldiers that came to Waco at that time married Waco girls when the war was over. And some of them are still living here in Waco. I noticed two or three in the paper the other day at some reunion. And there was one of those Michigan soldiers that had married a Waco girl." Less than two months after WWI ended, the government ordered Camp MacArthur's buildings to be dismantled and reused for such purposes as the construction of US-Mexican border stations. Cathryn Carlile recalls some of the remnants were used in the Edgefield neighborhood in Waco where she grew up: "The houses in the 1C block of Hackberry were built in the early 1920s from the surplus lumber from the barracks from World War I. And all of these houses were exactly alike except the two older houses, one at 1C, which was part of the dairy, and the house next door to it. So there were ten houses just alike. And they were very sturdily constructed. Four rooms and a bath. And we did have the utilities. We had utilities." Frank Curre Jr. bought a house on former Camp MacArthur grounds and tells what he and a neighbor did soon after: "Was a black man come down the street. Had a mule and a single-disc plow and a homemade rake that they'd made. We asked him what he'd charge to plow up all that back lot all the way across and rake it down smooth. He got out there and did all that. He dug up old hard rubber tire wheels, buckets full of them brass teardrop caps off them old trucks. And we threw all that away. Look what they're worth right now." Camp MacArthur officially closed on March 7, 1919. Since 1966, a historical marker has stood at the intersection of Park Lake Drive and Nineteenth Street as a reminder of the camp's brief but indelible existence.

This week Don and his many field reporters discuss the forecast, updates to hunting regulations in Kansas, and more before being joined by Robbie Campo to cover the lack of rain we've seen this summer, Jeff Bruhl pops in to give us a freshwater fishing report and what we could expect to see once a cold front finally hits and cools the water down a bit, Kirk Stansel gives us the down and dirty about the Hackberry area and Daryl Carpenter tells how if there is still a shortage of slot size Redfish.
Don calls up Kirk Stansel from Hackberry Rod and Gun to talk about how rough the Trout fishing has been, if they get a run of White Trout around the lodge, this season has been absolutely fantastic for Teal hunting, and how the river salinity is affecting the Hackberry area and how that affects the fishing.
Don sets the stage for the show as Ride the Bull gets started this weekend as well as hearing from our field reporters covering everything from Shell Beach to Hackberry to Grand Isle, talking about how things are coming to a close this August with the heat starting to finally break, some news for the Alabama Red Snapper fishermen season, Mottled duck hunting changes, and Bull Reds popping up left and right.
Don is joined by Kirk Stansel of Hackberry Rod and Gun to discuss how the weather affects your fishing trips, bird sightings around his area, how the Marshes are severely lacking water, how Redfish are looking, and if Kirk has ever seen a jubilee, and what they mean for the local climate and environment.
532. Part 2 of our conversation with Eli Langley, a member of the Coushatta Tribe and a graduate of Harvard. “Eli Langley '21 grew up in a family devoted to safeguarding the culture, history, and language of the Coushatta Tribe. His father, a tribal cultural adviser, and his mother, an anthropologist and tribal historian, nourished him with Native folktales and inspired him early on to take pride in his roots. At 12, he asked his parents to send him to a boarding school to challenge himself academically. At 18, he learned Koasati, the language of his tribe, becoming its youngest speaker, and in 2016, he became the first member of the Coushatta Tribe to be admitted to Harvard. Now, upon his graduation this month, he will become the first tribal member to use their Native language to fulfill the College's second language requirement.... 'My story is a continuation of my people's story,' said Langley. 'I'm a cog in the wheel, and I stand on the shoulders of giants. I know that I'm only able to undertake these things with the strength and the knowledge of my culture.'” (Harvard Gazette) This week in Louisiana history.

Sabine National Wildlife Refuge 3000 Holly Beach Highway Hackberry, LA 70645 Email sabine@fws.gov Sabine National Wildlife Refuge ,about 8 miles south of Hackberry, on State Highway 27, was established in 1937 to provide habitat for migratory waterfowl and other birds. The refuge consists of a basin of wetlands located between the Gulf's beach cheniers (oak ridges)and the coastal prairie, which is one of the most productive and fertile areas of North America. It encompasses 124,511 acres of fresh,intermediate and brackish marshes and is one of the largest estuarine-dependent marine species nurseries in southwest Louisiana. It has also been designated as an "Internationally Important Bird Area" due to the numerous wading, water and marsh birds that utilize it throughout the year. Over 280,000 people visit the refuge annually. The exhibits in the refuge visitor center and the Wetland Walkway are considered two of the principal tourist attractions in southwest Louisiana.

Don is joined by Capt. Kirk Stansel from Hackberry Rod and Gun to see what's in store for him this weekend in the Hackberry area, how the heat and this wind has been outright ruining fishing plans, Kirk's approach towards the conversation surrounding Redfish, Speckled Trout, and more changes in regulations.
Don calls up Cap't. Kirk Stansel of Hackberry Rod & Gun to cover this thick and dry summer heat, his best spots for fishing Trout, Reds, and Flounder as the water calms down and lowers, a recent Shark caught that made a splash in the news, and how the weather and water conditions are bringing in more Sharks.
This week, Don and his many field reporters cover this weekend as the Summer heat settles in, Robbie Campo talks Star tournaments and bait inventory reports, Don asks listeners on National Black Bear Day if you've ever seen a black bear before, Kirk Stansel joins us to discuss his Speckled Trout fishing adventures as he describes it as "incredible", as well as how busy Hackberry is looking this time of year, and Daryl Carpenter joins us a bit late after wrapping up a rescue on the go for a quick Grand Isle report.
This week, Don and Kirk chat fishing report from the Hackberry area, how the river has been there, what bait Cap't Kirk has been using, and Don gets Kirk's take on the Hog issue and if Kirk has dealt with any.

On this all new episode we are back at it again and re-capping the 2022 Louisiana Youth waterfowl weekend that just took place for the West zone. We were invited to take a trip down to Hackberry, Louisiana with friends and it did not disappoint! The boys were able to hunt prime spots of 16,000 acres of prime coastal marsh and bag a variety of birds over 2 days. We discuss how it all went down, as well as provide you with insight on what we we saw from a migration point of view and what to expect as we close in on the season openers over the next few weeks. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/last-stop-waterfowl/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/last-stop-waterfowl/support
SavATree's Certified Arborist Sarah Maitland is joined by Arborist Richard Adkins to discuss the Tree Of The Month the Canyon Hackberry. Rather scraggly when young but matured has surprising benefits including shade. Tips on frost protection from proper use of frost cloth to watering for winter. Fall fertilizing, learning about 'Forest Bathing' and a surprise call from the originator of the Talking Trees hour John Eisenhower!
Many of our garden plants have "perfect" unblemished leaves lacking any evidence of nibbles taken by hungry herbivores, or dwelling places of leaf miners and other native insects. This artificial state of perfection is because many of our garden plants are from other continents and our native insects have zero chance of eking out a living from their foliage. But native plants have co-evolved with a diverse community of insects that live in and on them and in turn form essential links in the food web that feeds native birds and mammals. Hackberry nipple galls are formed by tiny insects that emerge as adults in fall and are valuable foodstuff for migrating birds. And the hackberry trees do not seem even slightly the worse for the wear.
We check in on our year-long project #BLTrees, following the seasons through the trees around us with Marielle Anzelone, urban botanist and ecologist and the founder of NYC Wildflower Week. This month, with peak bird migration in process, Desiree Narango, a conservation scientist at the University of Massachusetts Amherst working in collaboration with the U.S. Forest Service, explains the important link between native trees to caterpillars to birds. Hello, gorgeous! The leaves on my pin oak are finally out, but still bright green & not at full size. But before leaves came the flowers.

River Birch. Silver Maple. Swamp Tupelo. Water Hickory. Water Tupelo.” Those 16 and other tree species can be found in a wide variety of water-related habitats in Virginia. The Virginia Department of Conservation's 2021 report, “The Natural Communities of Virginia: Ecological Groups and Community Types,” lists over 30 community types associated with aquatic habitats. Tree species are a characteristic of the vegetation in over 15 of those community types, ranging from Piedmont/Mountain Small-stream Alluvial Forests, to Coastal Plain/Piedmont Bottomland Forests, to Coastal Plain Depression Swamps and Ponds, to Maritime Swamps. More generally speaking, you can find native Virginia trees beside small streams in uplands, for example, Eastern Hemlock; beside large rivers in the mountains or Piedmont, for example, American Sycamore and Silver Maple; beside large Coastal Plain rivers, for example, Overcup Oak and Water Hickory; and in a variety of swamps and other wetlands, for example, Baldcypress, Atlantic White-cedar, and Swamp Tupelo. Here's to Virginia's many tree species, its many water habitats, and the many combinations of those two groups of natural resources. Thanks to seven Virginia Tech colleagues for lending their voices to this episode. Thanks also to Timothy Seaman for permission to use this week's music, and we close with about 15 more seconds of “Baldcypress Swamp.” MUSIC – ~15 sec – instrumental.

Diane Swonk talks with us about the data showing that the abundance of job postings amid the labor shortage is starting to pivot toward higher-wage employment. President Biden is asking the Federal Trade Commission to look into whether sharply rising gas prices at the retail level are due to some kind of illegal conduct. Sticking with the theme of natural gas, Andy Uhler’s exploration of the natural gas industry and its impact took him to the town of Hackberry in Louisiana, a shale oil and fracking territory near Shreveport. He checks in with us from there.

Down Home Cajun Music- Hackberry Ramblers 1935-1938The Hackberry Ramblers started playing together in 1933. They were the first band to combine Cajun music with country music, sung in English. Besides country music, they played western swing, blues, traditional jazz standards, a wide range of popular songs. They were also the first group to use amplification to boost their sound. This episode features some of their early recordings; some which have not been reissued.Hackberry Ramblers- Mermentan Stomp (Bluebird 2003) 1936Hackberry Ramblers- Just Because (Montgomery Ward 4816) 1935You've Got To Hi De Hi (Bluebird 6136) 1935Rambling (Bluebird 2010) 1936Jolie Blonde (Bluebird 2003) 1936Cajun Crawl (Bluebird 2013) 1937Jai Pres Parley (Bluebird 2013) 1937Dobie Shack (Bluebird 2019) 1936The Wandering Man (Bluebird 2019) 1936La Breakdown A Pete (Bluebird 2035) 1938Oh Josephine, My Josephine (Bluebird 2035) 1938Mon Cour Me Fois Ci Mal (Bluebird 2088) 1938*All selections from the original 78 rpm records
Season 12 of the soybean pest podcast starts off with a bang, a hot, dry bang. The midwestern drought is affecting all of us, even the 6-legged. Check the UNL drought monitor for the current status (hint, its bleak: https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/CurrentMap/StateDroughtMonitor.aspx?IA) We talk spider mites, cause its hot and dry. Erin discusses the remarkable pests outbreaks occurring in alfalfa, exacerbated by a mild winter and hot, dry spring. Matt turns our attention to Japanese beetles (JB), and the duo speculate about the impact weather has on their abundance. Erin notes a trend of JB larvae in the interior of cropfields, not just the edges. (https://crops.extension.iastate.edu/cropnews/2021/06/japanese-beetle-adult-emergence-beginning-southern-iowa) Erin notes the first appearance of soybean gall midges in northeaster Iowa. Matt notes some progress in detecting insecticide resistant aphids. Rootworms are also discussed as we note egg hatch, signaled with the appearance of lightening bugs. Finally, Erin takes might to school with reports of the Hackberry emperor. Its a pretty butterfly, definitely not a thistle caterpillar and notorious for being a cheater (https://crops.extension.iastate.edu/blog/erin-hodgson/have-you-seen-cheater-butterfly) To wrap up- Erin gives updates on her live events and we note the 26 June is pollinator fest at Reiman gardens (https://www.reimangardens.com/event/pollinator-fest-7/) Also, did we mention its hot and dry? Stay tuned for weekly updates now that the field season is in full gear.

Good Morning, Colorado, and welcome to the Daily Sun-Up from the Colorado Sun. It’s Monday April 26th, and we’re feeling lucky to start the day with you. Join us daily for an in-depth look at one of our top stories. Today -- At this point, most Coloradans who were eager to get the Coronavirus vaccine have received at least one dose. Now, the state is working to reach those who are hesitant. Before we begin, let’s go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett’s book “Colorado Day by Day”: Today we take you back to April 26th, 1951 when President Harry Truman assigned two small tracts of federal land in Southwest Colorado to Hovenweep National Monument. His action added the Hackberry and Goodman Point ruins to a reserve that protected structures of the so-called finest prehistoric masonry in the United States. Now, our feature story. When coronavirus vaccines were first available to the general public, interest far exceeded supply. Now more than two and a half million Coloradans have received at least one dose of vaccine, and state public health officials are figuring out how to get doses to the rest of the eligible population. Reporter John Ingold talks with Lucy Haggard about the coronavirus vaccination campaign’s next steps. To read more about Colorado’s coronavirus vaccine campaign, go to coloradosun.com. Thanks for listening. Finally, here are a few stories you should know about today: Public health officials say Colorado can resume using the Johnson and Johnson coronavirus vaccine. The vaccine was paused for 11 days after unusual blood clotting occurred in 15 of the nearly eight million people who had received the shot. Three people died and several remain hospitalized. Experts say the one-dose vaccine is crucial to fighting the pandemic, though new warnings of the rare blood clots will be included in consent forms going forward. https://coloradosun.com/2021/04/24/johnson-and-johnson-coronavirus-vaccine-colorado/ As Colorado begins preparing to reintroduce gray wolves, a bill in the state legislature seeks to ensure the financial cost is shared among stakeholders. House Bill 1243 would change the source of funding from the Wildlife Cash Fund, which is primarily filled through hunting and angling fees, to one of four other funds. The bipartisan bill seeks to assuage critics of reintroduction, many of whom are hunters and anglers who were worried their fees would be the main source of funding for the effort. The bill passed unanimously out of the House Energy and Environment Committee earlier this month and now heads to House Appropriations. The world’s largest firefighting airplane is offline just as the western U.S. prepares for a potentially catastrophic fire season. The Global Supertanker, a converted Boeing 747 based in Colorado Springs, can fly as low as 200 feet and dump up to 19,200 gallons of water or flame retardant in just six seconds. But reports say the investor group running the airplane is shutting it down. The supertanker can cost as much as $250,000 per day to operate. https://coloradosun.com/2021/04/24/global-supertanker-747-grounded/ For more information on all of these stories, visit our website, www.coloradosun.com.

Greg Nutt posted a photo: Hackberry, Arizona is a former mining town, it takes its name from the Hackberry Mine which was named for a hackberry tree in a nearby spring. Prospector Jim Music helped develop the Hackberry Silver Mine in 1875. Mining of various metals developed the town, sending it from boom to bust based on fluctuating commodity prices. Hackberry is an unincorporated community in Mohave County, Arizona. Hackberry is located on Arizona State Route 66 (former U.S. Route 66) 23 miles northeast of Kingman. Hackberry is a great place to stop and take photos, stretch, and have friendly conversation with the storekeeper.

Warren Coco's epic story resumes with his first telling about his Avoyelles Parish ancestry stretching clear back to a Revolutionary War veteran from whom the Coco name was derived. And speaking of origins, before going back to Hackberry, we briefly revisit Go Devil. How'd the company name come about? How have their product line has since evolved? Why are there size limitations? Returning to the once-in-a-million lifetimes opportunity that soon became marsh camp, Coco describes what makes the landscape a true sportsman's paradise. Why is the Louisiana marsh described as "sinking land"? What were some of the daunting challenges to maintaining critical marsh habitat? How'd the property fare during back-to-back hurricanes Katrina and Rita? How do corn impoundments up north really affect the duck migration to Louisiana? The episode concludes with a heart rendering story about how pancakes and sausage became a Coco family duck blind breakfast staple.

As described in last week's episode, Warren Coco spent over a decade hunting ducks in the enchanted Maurepas Swamp. Some years were better than others. Countless memorable times were spent with family and friends in the then-magical place - nights spent in floating camphouse in middle of swamp, mornings spent in tight, 30 yard-wide holes among towering, Spanish moss veiled cypress trees. The paradise vanished abruptly, because nature is always changing, and Coco found himself "on the outside looking in" where duck hunting was concerned. But not for long. Because people like Coco are doers. How'd Coco move a floating duck camp that had been given back to its original owner? What befell Maurepas Swamp duck hunting? What was it about hunting "Frank's Blind" in southwestern Louisiana that Coco never forgot? Why was it so hard to become a landowner in Hackberry, and what "once-in-a-million-lifetimes event" transpired? All of this and a lot more as we continue the Warren Coco Got Devil series in this week's Duck Season Somewhere.

One of the most successful and influential business leaders, restauranteurs, entrepreneurs and female mentors in San Antonio discusses a myriad of topics. From Fiesta to the very tough economics of COVID-19, we get into it. Transcript: Justin: Hello and Bienvenidos San Antonio. Welcome to the Alamo Hour, discussing the people, places, and passion that make our city. My name is Justin Hill, a local attorney, a proud San Antonio and keeper of chickens and bees. On the Alamo Hour, you'll get to hear from the people that make San Antonio great and unique and the best-kept secret in Texas. We're glad that you're here. Okay, welcome to the Alamo Hour, today's guest is Jody Newman. Jody is the chief friend of The Friendly Spot. Soon enough to be hopefully Two Friendly Spots. She mentors small businesses through Cafe Commerce. She was the first-ever Queen Anchovy, which is how we met and became great friends to this day, a random Fiesta event, which is one of the reasons I love San Antonio, honestly, is Fiestas. This weird thing where you make lifelong friends. That's where we met. Jody: It happened. Justin: We asked Jody on here today. We're going to talk about small business, small business mentorship, and honestly, what's going on today, the biggest thing, the gorilla in the room, the elephant in the room is Coronavirus and how small businesses have been affected. Thank you for being here. Jody: Thanks for having me, Justin. I'm happy to be here. Justin: All right, so we're going to start with one of my start with everybody, with a little bit of just random background about you. Do you have any pets? Jody: I do not have any pets. Justin: Do you have human pets? Jody: Yes. I have two wonderful kids. I have a 14-year-old son named Wilson who is a freshman at Holy Cross on the Westside, and then I have a daughter named Simone who is in the fourth grade. Justin: Okay, what is your favorite place to eat in town right now? I know there's a million, but right now what is it? Jody: My super favorite place to hang out without a shadow of a doubt is The Dakota East Side Ice House on Hackberry and if you have not had their pork casserole, you have not lived. Justin: All right. I've seen you and Steve post from there quite a bit. Jody: It's so good. Justin: I still haven't been there. I've got to. Jody: You got to. You have to. Justin: Another thing. Everybody's got this weird hidden gem thing in San Antonio. When you tell people, "Okay, you visit San Antonio, but to be a PhD tourist, you've got to go to this or do this thing." What is your hidden gem? Jody: For you to experience San Antonio fully, I think you must go to the Esquire Tavern. Justin: For me, it's the Downstairs. Jody: Yes. For sure. Justin: Such a great hidden gem. Okay, we're going to get into this more in a second, but you're very involved outside of your job, which everybody in town knows what The Friendly Spot is unless they've lived under a rock. What are some of your biggest involvement outside projects? Jody: Interestingly enough, several years ago I was spread so thin. I had The Friendly Spot Ice House. I had interests in other ice houses.
