Alex Housden Gorilla Video
Alex Housden and Jason Hackett were co-anchoring the morning program on KOCO-TV on August 22, 2019. They were reacting to what was supposed to be a light-hearted video from the Oklahoma City Zoo.
The zoo had shared a video to Instagram of an ape named Fin adorably getting up close and personal with the camera. Hackett and Housden were gushing over Fin and laughing when Housden ended the segment by remarking, “He kinda looks like you.” Hackett paused for a beat before answering, “He kind of does, actually, yeah.”
