Everyone commenting on the chute times have zero clue what they are on about. I worked at this station (ret in 2016) and 19's was busy, we would average 15+ EMS runs in a 24. Couple that with understaffing, a large volume of EMS calls and overworked ER's, it wasn't unusual for crews to get tied up for several hours at Parkland or Baylor for instance, it creates a domino effect of being chronically overworked without enough sleep. So to go from dead asleep to rolling in under two minutes is doing pretty good.
The slow response may be because of shots fired, which would mean they would stage until PD secures the scene. Did anyone hear the gun fire in the background?

Dispatch would be all over us for being so slow getting out the door and we are all volunteers.
Wow 2 mins to get out of Bays is this a Volunteer station don't think so
I hope that's fireworks and not gunshots in the background.☹☹☹
Pathetic out of chute time for the ambulance. Tax dollars at work.
