AM Show Hr 2 | Another Side Of The Katy Market Days Issue

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Verie Show is on the air. On Monday, we

(00:29):
played a story that had been covered from the channel
thirteen ABC thirteen locally in Houston about the Katie Market Days.
These markets, many many communities do this kind of a
community market, but the Old Town market business owners in

(00:50):
Old Town Katie have once a month market days. And
the allegation by the woman who puts it on was
it the city he was trying to take it from her,
And we played the story, we talked about it. I
had someone on yesterday named Lynn Sullivan who said, well,

(01:10):
you're not getting the full story. That lady is actually
charging the vendors a lot. She's not doing things for
the kids. There are a lot of people that are unhappy.
And I said that if Betsy Procter reaches out to us,
which she did, we would have her on the air
and we will do that. I did get an email
yesterday that I thought was kind of interesting from Baker

(01:33):
Hill Ranch and it says, your caller referred to downtown Katie,
but you should know it's actually Old Town Katie and
like Old Town Spring, it's only about maybe six blocks
there was some older antique shops there already in a
couple of smaller boutique type businesses. When they renovated, they

(01:53):
built a new city hall and yes, a civic center,
but it's not a big civic center by any means.
I think it's mostly common conference rooms. No place for
a concert, probably not more than six thousand square feet.
There is a newly built restaurant and a beer garden
type place. There's lots of outdoor area for flea markets
and concerts. And yes, the bathrooms are nice and clean.

(02:15):
Sounded good to me. You know who I think is
headed in that direction is old Town Rosenberg, where our
friends what is it? A place back in time? What's
the place that we like? The little soda fountain place.
Crockett and I and a buddy of mine who's a
DPS trooper went there on the day that he met
us up there, the day that Crockett got his driver's license,

(02:37):
and we had a phosphate and we had a root
beer float another time. Yeah, I mean, and that little
area is booming. And when I say booming, it's not
you know, the Vegas Strip, but there's a little activity
people are really really like in the old towns and
the old town square and the owner operated business and

(03:00):
that sort of stuff. Betsy proctory is our guest. Welcome Betsy, Betsy.
She might put us on mute. Yeah, bat finger to mute,
but it happened.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Hello, can you hear me, Betsy? What were you doing?
I think I must have hit mute by accident. I'm
here a lot, all right, So sorry about that.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
So the story that was covered by Channel thirteen, why
don't you take about five minutes. I want to interrupt
you and kind of talk us through the history of
this from your perspective and what's going on there, and
then I'll have lots of questions.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
Okay. So I opened my antique store originally nineteen ninety
three and then moved to Second Street in nineteen ninety four,
which is the location that I'm currently at now, has
been there for thirty years myself. And there was another
antique store at the time called Second Street Antiques, and

(03:53):
the owner of that store had a big grassy area,
which is where that restaurant is now that you're talking about.
And her and I we're trying to figure out, we're brainstorming,
trying to figure out how are we going to get
people into town because it's like Deadsville. And we thought, well,
we'll try a market. So we started the market in
nineteen ninety four, the two of us, and we charged
like twenty dollars. We had maybe ten booths, and that

(04:16):
went on for quite a few years. It started to grow,
It started to get pretty you know, bigger, maybe twenty booths.
We started using one of the streets, and then we realized, yeah,
we're going to need to get police protection to close
the streets. So we went to city council and got
authorized to close the streets so that we were worried
about pedestrians somebody getting hit or something. And that continued

(04:39):
to grow. It got it got really, you know, pretty big,
and basically the market has become pretty very popular. I'm
really surprised the out pouring of love and how much
everybody's talking about how much they're going to miss it.
I guess I didn't really realize that. But the city

(05:01):
this year, I requested to have the streets closed, as
I have done for the last I don't know, seventeen
years or so, and they didn't put it on the agenda,
and they didn't put it on the agenda so I
finally contacted the city and said, hey, guys, because I mean,
I know everybody in the city. You know, well, it's
gotten along really well for the last thirty years. So

(05:21):
I was kind of surprised when they said that they
wanted to have a meeting with me and have an MoU,
a memorandum of understanding, which is like a handshake. Basically,
whereas I would make sure that everything was clean, which
I'd always do. We always pick up the trash. We
have our own trash receptacles in the back and all that,
but so they basically wanted me to sign the MoU.

(05:47):
I went in for the meeting. Basically it was just like,
they'll give me barricades, I'll take care of trash, we'll
just be good friends, and off we go. And when
I went in to sign the MoU, they didn't bring
the MoU up. They started talking about when was I
going to retire, and was really kind of taken aback
because I hadn't thought about that. And I said, well,

(06:08):
you know, basically, I hadn't thought about retiring. I mean,
I'm not thirty, but I still have a few years
left in me. And then they basically said that what
they wanted was they wanted me to work the market
for one year, train or guide their staff as to

(06:28):
how to run the market, and at the end of
the year in twenty twenty six, I would give them
all of my intellectual property, my DBA website, maps, everything,
and for that they would give me fifteen thousand dollars. Well,
they said they would send me an MoU. When they
sent me the MoU, it wasn't ANU. It was a

(06:50):
binding contract, and I said, you know, no, I can't
sign this. I had a lawyer look at it. He said,
don't sign this. So I didn't. So I wrote to
the city and I told them that I couldn't sign
that MoU. I mean that contract. Plus, it wasn't an MoU,
it was actually a contract, so that's a little bit different,
quite a bit different. They basically I sent them an

(07:13):
email and then I didn't hear from them again. And
then I noticed that they on their city council meeting
they had required a funds for an event assistant for
the lady that that was doing their events now. And
that's basically hiring somebody to do the job that I've
done for the last thirty years for free. So now

(07:36):
they're going to pay taxpayer funds to do the market,
except I'm not giving them my information, so they're going
to have to start it from the ground up and
all the negative press that they've gotten, and my vendors
just don't want to do it with the city because
the city doesn't really have great reputation for pulling off

(07:56):
very good events because they don't really advertise very much.
So anyway, that basically in a nutshell. I went to
city We were going to go to city council meeting
three weeks ago, but they changed the time from six
the usual time from six thirty to five thirty, so
we missed it. When I went to the city council
meeting on Monday, and both my husband and myself spoke,

(08:20):
but unfortunately the audio and the video didn't work when
we spoke, but it did work after we finished speaking.
They fixed it. So that's basically it in a nutshell.
That's where we are. I'm not, you know, not having
the market anymore. We had the last market on last

(08:41):
week and it was it was really good.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Betsy Proctor pulled down Katie the market days where we
are coming up This is the Michael Berry Show to me.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
To you.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
So in my peer group, it's just how we are.
If Karen Carpenter comes up, there's gonna be a reference
to anorexia.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
It just is.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
That's how people know of her. It's really too bad
because for musical prowess, she and her brother really did
accomplish something incredible. And you know the amazing thing. He
was the genius. He was the musical savant. She wasn't.

(09:30):
He played every instrument. He was the star of growing up.
That wasn't her thing. But boy, those vocals. I mean,
I'm a dude. I don't normally like women lead singers,
but I have to just stand in awe of her voice.
And who does it is mesmerized. It's absolutely mesmerized. Betsy Procter,

(09:53):
take thirty seconds and tell me what exactly your shop do,
because does it says antiques, but it's really kind of
movie posters and stuff.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Right, Yeah, Well, I started out with just antiques and artwork.
I do artwork as well. It morphed when my husband
retired from the oil industry. He started getting into the posters,
and so then we added on to our building. We
extended it into a poster gallery at the back and

(10:22):
that's really what our main business is now. I do
the artwork, retouching and posters if there's any restoration, and
he does the restoration, and then we sell posters and records.
We have huge amount of records. But we also have
The front of the shop is all antiques. I have
five dealers in there that put their antiques in there,
and we're like a little co op kind of family. Oh,

(10:48):
probably about three thousand, and you.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Have five other shops in there with you. Now, are
they staffing those, Well, they're just they are.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Yeah, they're my employees most well, not all of them
are employees. A couple of them are employees as well. Yeah,
they've put their antiques in their booths. There's five booths
in there, different people, and some of them work, some
of them are on my staff, and some of them
just rent out the little space that don't work.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
It says you got and there's also this yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
Yeah, they also are the ones that I hire them
to help me with the market, because you know, it's
gotten so big that I have to have staff to
help me run it. I can't do it by myself.

Speaker 1 (11:28):
So we're heading into twenty twenty five and the Internet's
a powerful thing, and.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Yes it is.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
You are competing in an old line business against you know,
like you've got vintage cameras, vintage costume, jewelry, ventance. How
do you compete when someone can go online and buy
something from New York or LA or wherever else? How
do you compete because they have to come in to

(11:57):
find you. I got to think that that makes you.
That's a challenge you have to rise to every day.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
Well, we do sell a lot of posters online, so
we are online. We have a big online presence as well,
not for the antiques so much because I don't like
mailing glass posters. We can mail, but we have a
big website and original Vintage Movie Posters is our website,
and we do sales and restoration. We have people that

(12:28):
mail us a posters from all over the world, although
we've toned that down lately because we've gotten too busy
and we just don't have enough staff to get people's
orders quick enough. So we're just doing local restoration jobs
and then a few old customers that we've done for years,
we still do them.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
But when you say restoration jobs, so somebody has it
all gone with the win movie poster and they bring
it in and you bring it back to life.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
So what we do is we put them on linen,
which is an archival method of restoration. It's a stretched canvas.
We put japan paper with wheat starts glue. We roll
the poster out. As the poster dries, all the fold
lines because they were always sent folded, they flatten out.
And then if there's any artwork missing or patches missing.

(13:18):
I've redone people's noses in their eyes and all kinds
of things. Then we I go in and do the
artwork to fill in whatever's missing and paint. Some people
are in print. Some people want that done and some
people just want to leave it in its original form.
So we do both. But yeah, yes we frame as well.

(13:39):
But yeah, they hang them on the wall or you
can you can hang them on the wall without framing them.
Better to have them than a frame just because it's
you know, protect them from sunlight. But yeah, it's a
it's an archival method of poster restoration.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
What of your overall sales walk out the door versus Internet,
I have.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
To say Internet is probably more I would think.

Speaker 4 (14:06):
Unfortunately, is it about fifty to fifty Maybe maybe the
Internet maybe more mainly because the posters that we sell
online are about high dollar posters we do.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
You know, they're they're they can be pretty valuable with
Star Wars posters and stuff. You can't imagine how collectible
those are with the generation that, yeah, decorating their meteor.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Yeah, it's all about who's making money right now. I
saw last week that that the red Slippers from Dorothy
from Oz sold for twenty eight million dollars. It's crazy, good, greasy.
It's it's where people are, their lifespan and how much
money they have. You know, you got to wait for
the generation that grew up with that. But you know
it's you raise an interesting question because we think of

(14:52):
the Internet as being evil because the brick and mortars
like you can't compete with the Internet. But everybody I
know that does what you do is the Internet is
what allowed them to survive. One of our show sponsors
is Laboucherie on Kirkandall in Spring, and you know, you
think of them as this. You know, they do the
traduccans and they do the stuffed chickens and de bone

(15:15):
and a massive part of their business is Cajunmeats dot com.
So so they got people walking in the door and buying,
but then they're sending it out the back. My buddy
at canvaspress dot com they print onto a vinyl or
a whatever and you put it on the wall. But
now you know, ninety percent of their business is not local.
It's Internet. I think that's just what businesses are going

(15:37):
to have to do. The Internet could actually keep a
brick and mortar in business.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
In this case, well, an actual fact the Facebook and Marketplace.
I post a bunch of stuff on Marketplace for all
my vendors, and we get a lot of people that
drive in from you know, League city, from far away.
They've seen something on Marketplace, So we use it for
the actual shop as well. And for you know, I've
got a lady that sells ya DROs and we've got

(16:03):
people that do you know, different types of glassware, and
so I'll post pretty much every pretty much every day.
Sometimes when I have time, I try and post every
day something from one of my vendors to try and
help them promote self. And it works. We get people in, oh,
you know, what time are you open, I'm coming and
they come and they buy stuff. So we do use
the internet for our store. The only way you're going

(16:23):
to survive is if you get online. You have to.
I mean there's just no way, no way around it,
you can, right.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
Challenge is, I don't know what you pay for rent,
but it can't be cheap. You know, you got that overhead,
the rental overhead and the utilities and all that that
has to be met at the beginning. Whereas if you're
working out of a home or whatever, you don't have that,
and that's a challenge.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
Right. Well, we did buy the building and thirty years ago.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
Oh well for you, we own.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
The building, so we're good on the rent.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
Thirty seconds or last. Because I'm up against a break,
Betsy Proctor, Okay, is the is the old town own
Katie Market days run by you done?

Speaker 2 (17:04):
It looks like it, but you don't want it. I
don't want Well, no, my vendors are just besides themselves.
I mean, the amount of emails and Facebook posts I've got,
people are really upset. I had no idea that that
people love the market as much as they do, but
I guess they do. We have a thirty five thousand
followers on Facebook and just a real outpouring of they

(17:30):
just like the market. So yeah, I would I would
like it to be able to come back. Perhaps in May,
maybe they'll vote everybody out and we'll get a new
administration and we can bring it back. But that's probably
going to be the only way we're going to get
to do it.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Betsy Procter, thanks for being our guest. And I will
say to everyone at a number of people who said
Bessie Procter's are screaming liberal, that's why she won't come
on the show. And I addressed that with her. I said, listen, lady,
I don't care who you vote for for president. The
role of as it pertains to citizens and small businesses
is of great interest to me, and I want to

(18:05):
get those stories out there and tell those stories and
your politics aside. That's what we do.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
Here, make Marco Berry's Show.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
When you stop and think about the fact that we
know Smokey Robinson as the smooth, silky voice, as the
front of the Miracles that would go on and have
a hit without him, because Barry Gordy's highest and best
use for Smokey was identifying training talent. We're talking about

(18:42):
Smokey Robinson here. We're not talking about some half wit.
When you think about how earth shattering Motown was in
its day, you want to talk about Black pride. Barry
Gordy had the foresight to bring in not just choreographers

(19:05):
to teach his artists how to present with dance in
their routines. He brought in stylists. He brought in people
who taught physical presentation, posture, how to speak properly in

(19:29):
an interview. What he did was what an NFL team,
the best NFL team would do now for their Tom Brady.
And he was doing that at a time where that
wasn't done in the white world, much less to black world.
It's amazing, it really is. The story. It's incredible. It

(19:54):
was on this day in nineteen sixty one that it
all began to change. Motown Records would have their first
number one on the Hot one hundred. And it wasn't
with any of the artists you would expect. It was
the Marvelettes. Please, mister Postman went to number one. There's

(20:19):
just something about that sound. I can hear the sound
of Motown, I can hear the sound of Stax Records
with with with our friend Steve Cropper and Otis Redding
and and Sam and Dave and just what's that Booker

(20:41):
t and the I mean? And then you hear Phil
Spector's Wall of Sound. You see the patterns and the greatness,
and we take it for granted. But there was a
day that there was no Marvelettes, and there was no
hits Town, there was no Motown. And then here's this
guy that has this vision and it morphs. I mean,

(21:05):
to have the vision to bring in people, to buy
the clothes and put them in them, to tell these
these folks who were coming from from little towns in
Mississippi and Alabama and Louisiana, all right, you're gonna have
to learn to stand like this and speak like this
and look like this and and you know, flutter your

(21:29):
eyes and do this and don't do this, and this
is what you say, and this is what you don't say.
And and then you it was a Hollandozer Holland You
got these groups over here who are writing the songs,
and then you got these people out here are recruiting
these people. It really is amazing. If you know, when
we talk about black history, the people that get promoted

(21:52):
as black history are Charlatan's and grifters and losers like
Al Sharpton. There should be a trumpet blown for a
Barry Barry Gordy. I mean, we're talking George Washington Carver stuff.
I'm not kidding his influence on American culture by what
he did. And it wasn't just a question of talent.

(22:14):
He was running a machine of his building. Please, mister
postman started at all? Well, did you know if you
rearrange the letters of postman they get really angry. Last week,
ABC thirteen reported on the rampant mail theft in Houston

(22:35):
by post office employees. It starts to make sense now.
The post office employee charged with murdering a coworker at
the Missouri City processing facility. Oh he had been out
on a bond for assaulting a cop earlier this year.
This is the kind of people that they're hiring. It's
why the president of the Postal Police Officers Association says

(22:59):
there are our pockets within Houston where the mail is unsafe.
It's being stolen. Clip number eleven, please, mister Roeblists courtesy
of executive producer Chad Nakanishi Khou.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
There's still activity today at this mall processing center in
Missouri City. But we're told operations were scaled back following
a deadly shooting last night involving two people.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
I can't tell you that they were both employees of facility.

Speaker 3 (23:26):
Missouri City Police and the US Postal Inspection Service responded
to reports of an active shooter around ten pm. We
had the sounds on damel Winnedelaki says he and others
initially thought a piece of machinery malfunctioned until an evacuation
was ordered. So told me go out, go out like that,
you know. This afternoon, investigators identified the suspect as twenty

(23:49):
four year old Derek Lot of Humble. He's charged with
murder and is being held in the Fort Ben County Jail.
We've confirmed Lot was out on bond at the time
of last night shooting for the alleged to soil vult
of a peace officer earlier this year. Investigators say that
coworker he's accused of killing was thirty five year old
Kevin J.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
Hines.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
In a statement, uspis Acting Inspector in charge Mona. Henderson said, quote,
this was a tragic and senseless act of violence. Our
employees deserve to feel safe when they come to work.
Postal Inspectors are working tirelessly to ensure justice is served
on behalf of Kevin Hines, his family, and all of
the employees who work in this facility. It's a facility

(24:32):
we've been allowed inside previously following stories about mail delays.
The Postal Service has yet to respond to questions about
how this incident may or may not impact operations.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Hey, what's happening. Race has destroyed this country, or at
least what we knew of it. So a lot of
people don't want to hire black employees because they're afraid
that once you do hire a black employee, if you
don't promote them, you'll be sued. If they cause a
problem and you fire them, you'll be sued. Everything that happens,

(25:08):
you'll be sued and accused of being a racist. Better
just not to hire black employees, and that ends up
hurting black employees. That that's why you got to stop
that nonsense. So what ends up happening is people in
the private sector don't want to hire blacks, and so
what's left the government? So you put people in the
government who nobody wanted to hire on the outside. It's
a it's a mess. It's got to be fixed. You're

(25:30):
giving Michael Berry because you're a public Paul Revere kind
of ringing the warning though. I even saw a commercial
in one of the football games, and this was the
song Elbing commercial and it's a woman named Olivia Dean

(25:50):
who sings it, and she's got that she's got a
voice like, uh, who is the black English lady? Should
a white husband? He died of brain cancer at like
thirty Uh not from the Jeffers Karen Bailey Ray turn

(26:18):
this up. This woman has kind of a just kind
of a Karen Bailey Ray sound, And I thought, man,
what a brilliant choice of a song, because it's one
of those songs that a lot of young people won't

(26:38):
know that this is a remake of an old Sam
Cook song. There are certain there are certain songs that
it's they're just so golden that a young kid there's
a there there TikTok or one of these sights, because
people will send them to me where they'll have a

(27:00):
young black kid first listening to Merle Haggard, or they'll
have a little redneck kid first listening to Marvin Gaye
and they're just their mind is just blown. I mean, hell,
you do that with lady Gaga. Their pipes are pretty impressive,
but it's one of those things that the first time
you hear this song, this arrangement is Sam Cook. And

(27:25):
I heard it and I was like, wait a second,
that's an old Sam Cook song. And I sat there
for ten minutes, not paying attention to what was on TV,
thinking about, but why wouldn't you just use the original
Sam Cook because it's so wonderful, And I thought, no,

(27:47):
they've updated it, They've sped it up, They've made it
more modern in a very subtle way, but it still
has that kind of timeless sound. So young people won't
even know, oh, because ll being consumers are probably thirty
and below. When I was in law school, when I

(28:09):
started college, I had a Jan Sport backpack maybe Jan
Sport backpack. Jan Sport was the only brand I knew of,
and I carried that backpack through college. Four years into
law school and my wife and I had a dear friend.
She's still our friend today. She lives in DC. She's

(28:31):
a high powered attorney there. Her name was Angela Holsey
at the time. Now it's Angela Wallet because she married
a fellow named a doctor named Brian Wallet, and he
does fibromiologia research at Johns Hopkins and she practices tax
law before the Supreme Court. Brilliant, brilliant lady. And she

(28:51):
was our best friend in the whole world. We just
loved the door, still do. And she bought us one
year at Christmas for me and Adita, she bought LLB backpack.
She had an ll BEING backpack that she'd had since
she'd started at Yale six years earlier because she'd gone
from there to work at the Heritage Foundation in DC.

(29:11):
And we have those backpacks to this day. And do
you know ramon that ll Bean If the zipper breaks
or there's a rip or whatever, you simply send that
to them with your name and address and they will
send you a brand newan. Yeah. There are two American companies.

(29:33):
I have not looked up their politics because I'm sure
they'll be awful. There are two American companies that I
think established that kind of brand that I've always kind
of liked, and so I steer clear of digging too deep.
And it's lands in in Lbean kind of this great
American sort of you know, Maine, a state of Maine.

(29:58):
You know, quality crafts and ship you know that that
that sort of thing. But anyway, do you remember the
original Sam Cook version of that? I think it's just glorious.
You have it, just give it a we're talking about Motown.
Sam Cook is what led to Motown. It wasn't Motown,
it was our stables. Just just just you turn on

(30:25):
the top forty today and let hey, there's no Sam
Cook just for you. That is just it's just working
till I wanted to say a big thank you. Yesterday

(30:46):
was the Saint Jude Golf Tournament. We do the golf
tournament for them every year. We raised over a million
dollars this year in partnership with our sister station Sunday
ninety nine point one, Dana Tyson and her Mark Sherman
and the whole group. And I just wanted to say
a quick thank you to the folks who came on board.

(31:07):
This was our tenth and I said this would be
our last year to do this. We focus on Camp
Hope and I have my own family foundation that we
raise money to its end of year, so I'll be
making another contribution. We mostly fund Camp Hope out of it,
but we do. If you remember Off Serviller who was shot,
raised over one hundred thousand dollars for him. It gives

(31:30):
me the opportunity to make a contribution. It has to
be tax deductible or it has to be charitable on
short notice. And some of you actually contribute to our foundation,
and we very much appreciate that. I don't run it
because I don't ever want anybody to say I stole
a pity from it. So Greater Houston Community Foundation does
that for us and make sure that we're in compliance.
