Duck Call Room - Here's One 'Duck Dynasty' Rule You Didn't Know About

Episode Date: February 28, 2023

Si remembers the time he was locked in a public bathroom and couldn't find his way out. Phillip confesses where he got his deer mount from after lying to everyone for so long, and Martin and John-David talk about the weirdest packages and pictures that have ever been sent to them. Martin recalls the scariest plane ride he was ever on during "Duck Dynasty," which somehow ended with Larry the Cable Guy. Plus, did you know that "Duck Dynasty" had an ironclad rule about traveling? John-David and Si chime in with their own horror stories of travel. Si talks about all the times Willie has pranked him in bathrooms and that one time Willie wouldn't let anyone leave the plane until the hand of poker was complete. John-David shows Si some snakeskin boots to rate, and Martin gives advice on how to take a kid fishing for the first time. -- Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I did a bad, bad thing. You did a burn. Welcome back. Welcome back in the car room. Yeah, here we go. Philip has something he needs to confess. That's right. You got to get something off your chest?

That's all. It's a confession of sorts. Confess your sins one to another. Well, Martin is in it with me. What I do? Oh, my word. So I got a new office, and I know Willie's not listening to the podcast, so I may be able to say this. You can say whatever you want.

I can assure you he's not listening. Is it big? Yes, it's big. Is it in the corner? Yeah. Oh, man. It's got a big window. That's big time.

You got a window? Yeah. That's some, man. I ain't got a window. I've never had a window. I've been here for 12 years. I ain't got no window ever. Not once.

Unbelievable. You're important. After 27 years, they give you a window. That way you can jump out of it? And a watch. Are you on a second story or first? First floor. So I'm fixing up my office and I brought Alicia with me and we got it all.

all perfect except I needed some kind of deer mount to put on the wall and I've got two at my house where me inside gone and I think we were hunting in Texas somewhere and killed them but I didn't want to get one of them I needed something You need them at home. I need them at home

Yeah I got you So I showed up here and I said Martin I need a mount He said I know where you can find one You mounted something that you didn't personally kill sir I didn't mount it It was pre-mounted Oh, you bought them?

No, you just commandeered? No, he didn't buy nothing. I said, Martin, can you show me where the mounts are? He was like, well, we got a prize mount over here. It's Willie's. And he told me where he killed it. And then he said, you want this one? And I said, I don't want to go to jail.

He was like, I'll help you load it up. So now I've got this huge deer in my office. It's the most beautiful deer I've ever seen. The horns are gigantic like a chandelier. And on the back of it, it says, Willie Robertson and Red. So I've got it hanging in my office and people stopped by. They're like, hey, where'd

you get that deer? I didn't know you used that deer, hunter. Well, I mean, look, in fairness, that deer had sat back here in the warehouse for a while. Yeah. With dust all over. And I just come to the conclusion, Willie didn't want it. That's right. Didn't want it. I saw an opportunity to get it out of our warehouse. That's right.

Philip needed a deer. I needed it. Needed. Why don't you do? I mean, back to that age old question of need a one. Well, I think a good office decoration is a need. When mine got redone, I was like, man, this place is pretty bland. It's pretty dull.

So then I brought all my ducks from home and put in there. I didn't know they weren't ever going to go back home. But since we remodeled the house, Brittany is like, I don't want dead things in the living room. That's like, that'll get you every time. Okay, that's fine. I said, but you wait until them boys can hunt. They're going to be new dead things.

They're going to be new dead stuff. We got new memories coming. So you've got a giant Willie Robertson deer hanging up in your office and you just tell people. When they stop by and asked me, oh, that's a beautiful mount. Where did you kill that deer? Then I just kind of make up different stories. So I've got some good. And I learned that from Si.

It's 5% true. That's 0% true, sir. No, man, he got it. I put it in my truck. He got the deer. You just tell people over there, just. South of Westman Road, is where I got it.

I got just passed it with a boomerang. Yeah, just past the train tracks. Got it, just past the train tracks. That's right. Dang the thing you ever seen. That's good stuff. On the comeback.

Yeah. On the comeback. Oh, missed it on the way through. That's right. He missed it when. Hey, the deer was looking at him since you do it. Then bam,

right in the head. I've always wanted to hurt something with a boomerang. The only thing I've ever successfully hurt with a boomerang was myself. I figured that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. My elbow from throwing it to me.

I can't catch it on the way back. I've got a mount like that up in the store. People always like, what is that? Will it kill it? No, we don't know. It's been there since 1991. Well, then he did not kill it. It's a bass.

Oh, he didn't catch it either. Yeah, it's 26 pounds. Ooh. 26 pound bass. That's what it looks like to me. That's one in big lives. But it's a big line. That one ain't even 5% true.

Yeah. Well, no. The taxidermy painted a saltwater grouper to look like a bath. And people always stop and goes, who caught that? And I'm like, oh, I did back on Caney Lake when I was in fourth grade with my dad. How much did it weigh, 12 pounds? 26. No, 26.

I had to sit on it when my dad. And I just see how long it takes them to figure out that it's all the sham. And that's when you put, that's when you put a little tag. under and just put caught on and the most expensive things you got that's right that's right that's right I mean like rod real bait the most expensive thing in there that's what he ate but well the difference in me and Phil I eventually come clean because well no no I do too I eventually come clean except to Willie except the Willie hey hey I eventually come clean except the Willie and the reason why I brought it up is because I started noticing more and more mounts in here they all belong to size yeah we're going

change the name of this thing from duck call room to size trophy room that's right what a lovely room of death yeah take this stuff home with you like what you don't want to look at it but i ain't got no room put this stuff up i'm looking around we got room for at least four more i know can i bring my dear my wife's tired of it being in our living room oh hey this is pretty cool it may fit in my office it may fit in my office no he killed a big one who johnny d a doe no a big eight point he's Oh, I ain't actually no buck he killed. And you should have seen him because he FaceTime me after he did it and he was the most

Shuck up. He was the most shook up. It was huge. I've ever seen a human. I mean, monster. Next to all, your deer, the fence wasn't quite as high at this place. So I would. It was still a regulation. So I was, well.

You can say. The check wasn't as big. There you go. You shot one of Santa's deer. Johnny D. won that deer fair and square and a bed. Oh. Oh, okay.

Johnny D. He went 30 days gluten-free. He had to go gluten-free for 30 days. Who did he make the bet with? Matt BuzzBus. Worst 30 days of my life. Yeah, sure did. Well, what's gluten?

What's gluten? Gluten. Everything that is good. Anything that's enjoyable has gluten-in-it-oh. Has got gluten-in-in-it, okay. You want to be miserable, go gluten-free. So, hey, it's chocolate pie. Nope, can't happen.

Yep. Oh, long gone. Yeah, long-old. Okay. Giant D was eating them $14 pizzas from Dominoes with the gluten-free crust Oh, okay.

Those were the shit. So anything that tastes good has got gluten-in-old. Well, now the regular pizza... A lot of stuff, that was okay, huh? I think I'm the only person that ever went gluten-healthy-free for a month and gained weight. But you won the bet.

I won the bet because the bet was not eat healthy. The bet was no gluten. He picked up 50 pounds. And the problem is... I gained about five. The problem is BuzzBistin-Boo. leave him and wanted to give him a polygraph and I was like bro I've been with him every day for 30 days he did it I did it like he he won because I was trying to trip him up that's true I'd bring stuff

in that I knew had gluten in it and he was like there was donuts every day at the office for like a month only for that one month yeah there's never been donuts before or after again when a man makes a bet like that my mission is to make him fail not because I don't want him to kill a deer just because I think it's funny. We all got great friends here. Johnny D. would Google everything, like, before he ate it. Does this have gluten? That's right.

And, you know, it was, he did it. I was, I was reasonably proud of him. Man, it looks like a really small deer when you put it next to size. Well. And you're a big guy. But he's a heck of an eight point for Louisiana. I mean, you've got to consider the source of where you killed him. Well, that sure is a pretty dog.

That's pretty dog. So, that's the deer. That's Curly's top dog. Hurley helped us find it. Good job. Good job, Jay. That's a good eight point. Yeah, but you should have seen him.

Imagine the most shook-up child under the age of 10 you've ever seen from, like, their first deer. I've got the video. And multiply it by five, and that's Johnny D. Do you want to see the video? Yes, I want to see the video. Can you put it on the screen? Yeah, I can put it on the screen. It's fantastic.

Like, this is why you deer hunt. Where was you hunt? He's the exact opposite of Beacon. Oh, he was under that at Buzzbee's. Yeah, in Ola, yeah. He was down at Busbush. I'm sending it to my computer so I can put it on the screen. No, I'm not a killer, I'm not.

It got me all nervous and shook up and panicky and... I thought he was going to throw up. I did. Oh, you did throw up. No, I didn't throw up, but I was close. I was just so nervous because, you know... What's you doing with? You sent it to me.

A crossbow. Did you mean to send it to me? Oh, you shot him with a crossbow too? Mm-hmm. Oh, I'm just a total cheater. Oh, that's a little cheater. Oh, that impresses you? Oh, yeah.

I'm impressed me how you shall have a crossbow, good grief. Drilled him, too. I'm a brand man. If it'll. Well, I'm never going to get it myself. I ain't never killed nothing on an error. Well, I got it. I don't know what I do with it.

Oh, yeah, yeah. We went, well, we went fishing. You want me sending it back to you? Sure. Now, I was stuck a fish. Yeah, that was pretty good. Rumor has that you're supposed to wait until the perfect moments, but since I was shaking like a leaf, I just went ahead and said, piao.

Fire away. He went, look, this is me. go. That's me filming the camera. The shaking is my hand. Okay. Yeah. This is a solid 20 minutes after it too. I said Martin, did I hit this deer? And Martin said, I cannot tell anything that happens because of the shaking of the video. It looked like you ducked. He ducked it. It looked like he ducked it. I told him, I said, can you send me another video where you're not shaking. And I said, I cannot.

You're going to have to ask someone else to do that. That was the worst part. But then I was able to slow it down frame by frame. I said, oh, yeah, he ain't going to be far. And he wasn't far. The worst part of... He drilled him. That's the first time I've ever seen a deer and still when he get hit, jump up. No, no, this was... That crouched.

Like he ducked it. Yeah. Well, he didn't duck it. It centers. It centers. It was weird looking. He ducked down. Weird shot.

Yeah. That was the worst part of deer hunting, though, for me. Once you shot it, you had to sit there for two hours. No, you didn't have to. You were just following what Willie said. I told you get down and go find your deer then. That's right. I didn't want to get hurt.

Yeah. I sat there. Anyway, well, let's, now that we've confessed all of our sins due to Willie, let's take a break and we'll be back right after this. Go get a 26-pound bass. All right, look, springtime is here. It's warming up. You know what that means?

That means more outside cooking. And y'all know we love to eat beef around here. And that's what because of our friends over at Triedales beef makes such a good product, baby. Ain't it good? It's so good. It's our friend, Sal Robertson, would say, Buy on the grill. Look, before we got Tritels, getting ready for a cookout, man,

somebody had to run the grocery store, do all the things, grab whatever was left in case you were late in the day. And you never really know where that beef comes from. But with Tritels beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Tritels comes from a family ranch out in Texas. They're a fifth generation American ranch. So they've been at it for a while. Now, look, the beef comes straight from their ranch.

And other ranchers they work with who raise cattle the same way. their steaks are properly aged and shipped straight from the ranch to your door. We threw a couple of ribbys on the grill. Look, salt, pepper, garlic, hot fire, that's all you need. Look, because I tell you what, when the beef comes from people who raise cattle for a living, you can taste the difference. The tenderness and the flavor are fantastic. So if you're stocking the freezer for grilling season, go check out Tritale's beef.

I know in size case Christine loves it, which is just a, she doesn't eat meat. She isn't a big meat, either, folks. Yeah. Just go to trybeef.com slash. That's trybeef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. I sent you a picture the other day and you still haven't come by. You sent me a picture? Did you really?

Yeah. Dustin from Tibado. Oh, you did. Dustin from Tibido. Okay, Justin. Phil, this is for you too, Cy. All right. Okay.

Also for you. The photograph. No, he didn't. He came by. He said, hey man. Love the show, and I was like, what's up, dude? And he brought us Boudan from South Louisiana. Look, let me tell you something.

Well, you take my name off. There it is. I sent that to Martin. I said, hey, look, we got Boudan. And I still got it. And I'm waiting on y'all to come get it from me. I'm going to follow you to this board. That's where it is.

That's clever marketing, because you know I'm going to buy something when I come in there. Come get your Boudan. You know I just got a new boat. You know I need crickets And I'm offering you free things Oh man How good is Boudan from South Louisiana? I can tell you right now

I just got back from Lake Charles It's real good I stopped three times on the way down At different crackling and Boudan shops Just to slide in to figure out Which one I wanted to stop at on the way home Yeah I love to get the crackling Here's the problem

And look South Louisiana I don't know how many y'all listen I love you guys y'all are fantastic but i should have planned better because i was traveling back home on fat tuesday oh now see i don't know nothing about fat tuesday i mean i'm marty girl i understand the concept i understand what it is i understand all of that stuff i just didn't know that they shut down the world down there oh for fat tuesday oh that ain't good you go below i 10 and it's that's

it's it you ain't even got to get below there it's like christmas it's like christmas it's like long as your I-10 adjacent, and I'm saying adjacent is like plus or minus 40 miles. Uh-oh. You shut down everything on that Tuesday. I had no idea, but there was one. That was one. Uh-oh. That was still open.

Uh-oh. And then there was one. When I walked in there, I said, thank God y'all are open. She said, well, we figured we'd have some of you North Louisiana boys traveling back and forth. I said, how you know I'm from up there? She said, well, because you talk funny. Because you talk funny.

You talk funny. And I was like, why? because I don't speak French. Like, I don't, you know. She started laughing. We cut up and she gave me, it was close to closing time. So I ordered a quarter pound of cracklings to snack on on the way back. And I may have got a half.

She was nice. She said, you know, we can't keep these things. Like that. And, no, she was nice. And then. That was in Lake Charles? No, this was in, uh, Kender, actually. Mm-hmm.

Yeah. So the little wooden shack on the side of the road. I can't remember the name of it. But, hey, they got good, they got good, budan and good crackling. I think. They don't fry their cracklings and fish grease like at one place I style. I took a bite of a crackling. All I taste was catfish.

I was like, now hold on. Hold on. Now change you grease. At least cook it at a different cooker. That could be a good thing. Martin, that's the same place I got the quail eggs for a sigh. Oh, they had a bunch of pickled stuff. The little wooden shop in Kinder.

Yeah. Yeah, right there on the side. Yeah. Hibbert. No, it ain't A bear. A bear. I'd have remembered A bear. This was a different one.

Well, I got us some Boudan from Ronnie's. Ronnie's. I'll eat it. My man Dustin from Tibado, but you don't like Boudan. I don't like Boudan. He likes everything in it. He just won't eat it. How can you not like it?

I don't like it. He don't like the name. What, Boudan? Yeah. Well, call it sausage. Hold on. But you like Vianna sausage? Oh, got to chill there.

You like Viana sausage. But the man will eat canned tamales and like sardines and, like, sardines. He'll eat a lot of getting good tamales, fresh ones. but you draw a line at fresh-made boo-d-d-d-a-b-budan no i just ain't a bud-am man we need to cover his eyes and let him taste i like 99% of the things about you but i do not like the fact that you don't like boo-d-d-and he a cool young oh look everybody's got their likes of d'id and is one of my dislikes that's wild because it's so good the cracklers are out of the now hey i could get down on some cracklings just as good ones oh that that's

Especially the hot ones. Yeah, the hot ones. Hot spicy. Yeah. Yeah. Why do we always go back to food? Because that's what we know about. That's right.

Well, that's what we're good at. It's what we love. Spend our money on. Well, we love you when you bring it to us if you're listening. And you're driving by a fancy store that sells something that you can't get here and you just swing by 20. We got freezers. I'd, I mean, bring it. Yeah, but you can ship it too.

Ship a little picture. Look, if it hadn't been for like episode seven where we're like, send us your favorite snacks, I'd have never found Dodge Pretz. I mean, I like to think I would have eventually got there, but the person that sent a care package from North Dakota sent all them Dodge Pretzels at the time, and I was like, I mean, them things right there. Unbelievable.

And why are they so expensive now? Practices what you preach? Stap don't come, boys. Mail it to us. Yeah, we'll give you Tiny D's account. What was the wildest thing that we got or received? That picture of Jason was a, it was a, Is it a minotaur?

Oh, that's in the store? Half horse, half. No, I mean, I mean to the podcast, yeah. Oh, I still can't get overseeing Jace without a shirt on with a horse body. Yeah. Neither can Jase. It gives me nightmares. Corey told me I couldn't put that up in the store.

She said it's too weird. I said exactly. Yeah, that's. If I have to see it, so does everybody else. People stop and look at it a lot. I don't know what the weirdest thing we've been seeing here is. A lot of food. A lot of, I mean, yeah, nothing.

I mean, we've got sent some kind of exotic jerkeys that I've been like, no. I mean, why would you dry out fish and eat it? I don't know. Oh, yeah, that fish jerky. Yeah, and one of them was like shark and stuff. I was like, nah, man, I'm out. Shark jerky tripped me out. I opened it, and I just went, no.

Nope. Nope. It smelled like cat food. Smet like what you feed sweet pee. I thought, no, I'm out on that. So when we go to events. No, the craziest thing we've been sent is peanut M&Ms. Don't ever send those are.

Please. I get a text or an email that says, tell me what Cy's favorite snacks are because we want to have the green room ready. And so I usually, we do fruit and nuts and fritos. And chicken pot pie. No, he don't like that. Butterfring.

No, I know, but you do. Butterfinger. You have butterfingers in your green room? You're a butterfinger, yeah. and almond chocolate almonds barred? Almond Joyce?

Oh, what did you tell me? Oh, man. I hurt myself on some almond. Not my favorite. I mean, I'll eat it because I love coconut. Or she is chocolate almonds. Oh, now that was solid.

Yeah, oh, no. Yeah, it's real solid. It's like when we were in school and we used to have to sell them world famous chocolate candy bars. The almond ones were good. Oh, yeah. Of course, now them kids still selling that stuff

and they're half the size and the same price. It feels like a rip-off now. First inflation. Now, the best one me and Willie ever did, we had, okay, if we're coming here, have the green room ready. Yeah. And all that was on there was beef jerky and tea. That's it. I eventually added chips and salsa because I kind of thought that'd be fun.

Yeah, I would fix it. Willie is a beef jerky, man. It was beef jerky, tea. That's it. So we get there. And some people would be like, all right, here's your beef jerky? Here's your tea. But some people would go crazy.

Well, we did this one event, and we flew, it was in Virginia, and we get there, and there were some other speakers, and there were two tables in the green room. One had, like, a bag of beef jerky and a jug of tea. And the other one had, like, yogurt and, like, grilled chicken and all this stuff, and it was Tim Tebow. And so, Tebow had all this healthy stuff. And then Willie just had a couple bags of beef jerky. And Tebow gets on the stage, and he's got a little sigh in him. He's like, I get here, man, and I'm like, who else is speaking? Because this, I mean, there's all this unhealthy.

He added Skittles to our table. Who did? Tebow? In the story, all of a sudden, we had Skittles candy and beef jerky. And I was like, we didn't have no candy. Yeah. Well, then, like, the next week. Where's them skittles?

Yeah. The next week, a duffel bag of Skittles showed up to the office. And we never know who sent it. And it was a Skittles brand of duffel bag. Well, good for the. Tim. That's the kind of reached Tim Tebow got, though. That's Tim Tebow. If Tim Tebow says you like something, you'll get a duffel bag of it. Hey, Timmy, we need to talk.

There's some things. Jack Amers, boys. $5.5.00 bills. Duffle bag. About $100 bills. I'd really enjoy them. So duffel bag of them. That's right. Can't get a 50 ain't good enough, boys. All right. Let's take another break. We'll be back right after this. You know, as everybody was going in so many different directions, but it was always nice when me and Cy would get go to an event where everybody was at.

No, that was the best. When we went to Spokane that time, that was one of the funest trips of my life. Washington. Yeah, that's fine. That was where I come out with the space and the disease. What? Yeah.

Yeah, they asked me. Oh, yeah, you went on that speech, and I was like, they were looking at me, because I wasn't on the stage school. And I was like, that was fun, because Willie said, wait a minute, let me, what did you just say? Yeah, I remember that.

Because it was like the first speaking gig I've ever had to do where I didn't speak. I just stood there. Like me they introduced me and I went. Because they had like six y'all and then me and Phil were backstage eating beef jerky and chips and salsa. And Eminem. Yeah. It was a good gig. That was one of my favorite.

Plus, the other one was the other one of my favorite. The whole family was there. And when the women started sitting in the men's lap. Uh-oh. Oh, that was hilarious. We all know. We all know how that. That didn't go well, did it?

Oh, no, no. That was one of the best. But what did you say in Spokane about? You started talking about space? Somebody asked a question about, well, what would you consider yourself like? You'll compare yourself to something. Space and a disease? And I said, no.

I said, I'm like space or like a disease. Yeah, you said and. And what? And what? Go ahead. And then I went, you know, hey, like space is just, there's no end to it. And I said, the disease is. I thought you were going to say it's vastly unexplored. Well, no, plus that, plus that, I said, plus it was, it's unexplored, okay. A lot of mystery in space.

Absolutely. And I said, then a disease, I said, I'm like a disease without a cure. Well, boy, ain't that the truth. Because if your kidneys ain't contagious. That's right. care. No, it's wild. Why are you?

Contagious. Contagious and you just can't get enough. I agree with that. I love you. Willie was what he just kept asking stupid questions about it and the crowd was just on the ground

rolling. I mean, yeah. Because I was coming up on the stage at the Washington State Fair and you're on the state, it was me gobwin, who me, gobbin, who me guy went to say hi, Willie? And John Luke.

John Luke. And John Luke. You didn't say anything. Like, me and John Luke and Galvin just looked at each other. Why are we here? Yeah. Also, where is the check? Yeah, me and Willie got on that old.

Yeah, y'all can do that good. That was funny. Spokane a long way from here. Like, we were in a jet and had stopped and get gas. Oh, yeah. Oh, that's a long ride. Didn't we stop in Colorado? And I left my phone?

You left your phone? You left your phone. Left your phone. And then when we was all in the bathroom, Yep, so I got locked in the bathroom with the lights off. I could not find my way out. This thing had no windows and it was dark. I was watching.

I had just got to washing my hands after Titi and and me of Willie were washing our hands at the same time. He said, watch yes. I knew that. And he went over there and went, boom, hit the light and then hit the lock on the door. No, no, look. And sigh is just, ho!

This thing, hey, this is not, this is like about a 40, Cedar. Yeah, this is nice FBO. Okay. This is a huge bathroom. Yeah. Okay. When he hit the light, I can't see nothing, and I'm like this.

He did the whole way. We're just standing there at the door just like. I hit the door and I try. No, that can't be the door. It won't move. So I'm stagging around in this stupid bathroom and it took me 20 minutes to get out. Oh. They finally had done a look at all.

You're okay? I said, well, hey, yeah, I'm done. You put the little light on. I had a rule when traveling with Willie. Get in the bathroom. Get out before he does. Get out for you. Because the lights are going off.

Oh, I laugh. And I've always been waiting for the day for somebody to send an email like, hey, yeah, one time I was in Denver and I had to really go to the bathroom. I was sitting there. All of a sudden, I was in the dark and people were laughing. And then I was in the dark by myself for like 30 minutes. He did. He tapped me on shoulder.

So watch this. Lights lock. And we go on. There has to be somebody somewhere that Willie didn't know was in a bathroom that Turn the lights on. Oh, yeah, I bet. The other time, we stopped somewhere on the plane in between flights, and everybody goes in, and it's like me, Martin, Gowen, Phil,

Jason, Willie, all of them. And as soon as we walk in, everybody in there, and this thing is full of people. And everybody's going, whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay. Okay, boy. Everybody and ever. stool is going, what is they

like, what in the world? You never want to come there and go, whoa, wow. I think that was Nashville we did that, I'm pretty sure. That was a government. Stop what they was doing and was going, they're looking at all of it.

Yeah, who's big group? Because if you don't know it, sigh when he goes to the bathroom, by himself, nobody's in there. Very vocal. You can hear him. Very vocal. He says, whoa, okay boys.

Whoa. He liked Kirk Herb Street. He ended up giving a play-by-play, man. Oh, whoa. He generally ends it on a goodness. I literally walked down with tears rolling out of my house. There was like 10 of us in there. Oh, no, we're all doing it.

Because they just started one and that's the other. Every time they'd go past the door, Oh, boy, oh, man. Was that whole good grief? Is that great? We should not have been allowed to all travel to nice places together. That's good time. Hold on.

One more favorite story. When we were playing poker, remember that? We were playing poker. We had the table on the airplane. Oh, yeah. And sign Willie, we're in a big hand, and we landed, and Willie said, nobody get off the plane until this hands over. Yeah, he said, we ain't leaving until this hand's over.

Do not get off the plane. We're sitting at the talk at the FBI. All the money is in the pot. Ever bit of it. We've been on that plane for like three hours, and we just sitting there. I can see my truck. I'm like, hmm.

Nobody's moving. They do not move. He wouldn't even let Stewie open the door. No, no. That was just, hey, don't open the door and nobody move. Until his hand is over. Tell us hands over. Oh, man.

How'd that turn out for you? No, no. Yes, I won. I said, hey, look, you've made the ball. bet we're all in. I said, I've called. I said, since you made the bet and I call, I said, show me your card. And he said, he said, what you mean? I said, hey, Willie, you made the bet. I called you. All my money's in the pot. Show me your card. He said, wait a minute, guys, we got a problem.

And I said, what do you mean, we got a problem? I said, show me your car. He said, I can't find him. I said, well, then we don't have a problem. I said, thank you. Thank you. He's, whoa, whoa, what? What are you talking about? I said, hey, I got a strength. I said, you don't have any cards? I said, so guess who loses this hand?

I said, it's you, buddy. Bye. Bye. Poker games when we had checks in our pockets from appearances were always a lot of fun. Because we's all playing on credit. None of us have cash. He was like, let me know what I owe you at the end of this. At the end of this, nobody know.

I think I have a picture of that plane ride somewhere. Oh, I do. Yeah. gotta find that you're you're like peering over their back looking at their hands yeah I was yeah you were like oh no it was poker on a plane ain't easy yeah no it ain't easy yeah because it was turbulence and a lot of it and it ain't easy when them two ding don't don't it's like because they just willy wants to beat sigh so bad it hurts and side just over like I don't care like it just it's it's a wild but what happens is when Willie wins he jumps up it starts down

dancing in front of side. Yeah, on a plane. Yeah. You can't stand up on. Yeah, which you can't stand up on because it's a small one. Yeah. Oh, man. Yeah, because he was stumping all over my feet. Here we are talking about small airplane.

Unbelievable. Hashtag first world problems. Let's take a break. We'll be back right after this. What's wild is like with Duck Dynasty, when Doug Dynasty was going on, we had, they had that rule with us where we couldn't all fly on the same plane together. Yeah. So, like, they were totally cool if half of us got killed in a plane.

crash. But they didn't want all of us gone. It was crazy, man. If we go down, it's going to be Duck Dynasty Star and five unknowns. No. Hey, I actually, me and Willie got in that argument in Grand Island, Nebraska, of all places. What argument? About, because it was a super rough flight, like, we landed at a little air strip out in the

middle of nowhere. Nowhere. This is funny. Like, it was me, Willie. and Kyle, Kyle Tangwall used to work here. We were going to play in Larry the Cable Guys' charity golf tournament. Now, we're sitting there at the FBO of Monroe

looking. There's one of them lying of storms that go across the Midwest during the summer looks rough. What a pilot, old Wade and Stewie, they're looking at it, and you know, we've flown with them everywhere. They said, all right, if we leave now, there's a gap right there, we'll be able to shoot the gap, we're good. So there we go.

We were not good. When we got to that front, it beat us. I was like, okay, boys, this is where we, this is it. I would just fix, hey, what was Willie on that? Because, hey, this is it. And, of course, Willie's laughing. He's just having the time of his life is like, we're watching them panic like side of us. I wasn't panic.

Kyle was panicked. Oh, I bet. Kyle was white knuckled like in the bottom looking for like rosary beads and stuff. It was, it was crazy. It was, I mean, he was doing hell marries and all kinds of things. He's not even Catholic. I mean, he was pulling out every religious thing you could do because he was like, this is not where I'm intended to die.

Willie's laughing. And I'm just like, well, this is it. All right, man, whatever. I'm just coming to grips with like. Hey, this is it. What do we do if we hit? Like, you know, like, but then, so we got through. the storm which you think you're good right no we were in that weird wind shear like of the winds

go in both directions it has got worse and then finally the pilot looked and he said we're going down and i'm like going down like yeah wave it i mean he just pointed down i was like wave it yeah okay this just we we just escalated well i look down and there's this air strip out in the middle of nowhere like legit there's nothing around there's an airstrip oh and we went down set this baby down sat it down like the runways like this we're coming like this the whole yeah with the runway and right at the last minute he just went poop we've done that and put it and put it on the ground and i was like whoa okay all right boys we're good and so then we call larry the cable guy and we're like bro we don't know where we're at like we're just going to send you a pen and you know can you come

get us because like we can't get back up in the air right now or somewhere in the bruce we just knew we were in Nebraska. Well, it turns out we were in the town of Crete, Nebraska. We were supposed to be going to Lincoln or whatever. Shout out to the good folks of Crete, Nebraska. Yeah, but yeah, both of them. I don't even know why they had an airstrip there, but thank God they did. But yeah, we sent him a pen. He was like, well, y'all about 45 minutes, if you don't mind waiting. We're like, well, we ain't going nowhere else. Then we got in a discussion about what the newspaper clipping would have said. I love it. Whether it was Willie R. Robertson and Martin of Duck Dynasty and three others, or just Willie Robertson and four others,

killed the plane crash. I know what it would say it. Willie Robertson and Justin Martin from Duck Dynasty, and then three unknowns. I actually disagree. I said, yeah, it's just going to be you, bro. I was just that guy. Like, I would have been the, they'd have done the episode on us, and, like, you know, my memorial would have been over there, like, a little eight by ten years would have been, like, this big spread.

things and you know. It said Willie Robertson and Duck Commander crew. Yeah. So what did Willie say? He said it would be you. No, he included me. Yeah. Surprisingly.

He said it, but I was like, no, man. You're the only one that mattered on this rig. Right. And the beautiful part about that is like we were only there for a day. So I'm staring down a barrel like having to get back on that airplane. And I was like, man. That is rough. This sucks, man.

Like, but it was that private, don't get me wrong, private air travel is nice. Yeah. But when you go through. something like that you've never been more thankful for like a 737 than american airlines because you're like okay that's a lot smoother boys me and willie it was some kind of thing in georgia that we went to and it was the same kind of deal you know they were saying well okay yeah we can do this okay we can right there's a hole we'll we'll flip through and be good no no no slipping square bag round hole boys yeah yeah ain't no slippings

too. They got, we got in that thing, he got up, and look, it's supposed to be like an hour and 15 minute flight, okay? Three and a half hours later. Oh, y'all flew circles around that thing now. We're going over which way, and this thing is literally, sometimes we dropped a hundred feet in a second. Just wham!

Wham! Bang! Hey, I believe that. Like you said, Willie's over there, and he... He's laughing. He's like a stupid cowboy at a rodeo. He's over laughing, and I'm going, I got scared because I'm going, you're stupid idiot. I told you all.

At the time of ours, that Dirk's Bentley song, Drunk on a plane was out. And Willie's just over there singing, drunk on a plane, he ain't even drinking. Yeah, I ain't even drinking. He's just saying, I'm getting drunk on a plane. Just talking about the seasickness. And I'm like, man, to have your attitude about this. Have you ever showed fear on an airplane when turbulence happened? Willie would immediately scream, we're all going to die!

And then he'd start laughing. I'm like, why do you do this? Oh, man, he's wild. But he did make a good point, which I finally come to. He said, what are you going to control about this? And I'm like, nothing. You can't control nothing. You can't, you're not driving.

Yeah, why should you worry about it? Yeah. Every time somebody would tell us, all right, well, y'all have a safe flight back. Willie'd go, that ain't up to me. And we'd leave. And I was like, good point. Yeah. His views on air travel are way different to mine.

Like, I appreciate well wishes. He's just like, well, like it matters. Ain't on me, bro. He brought Allison with Allison tagged along with us one time, and we were on some plane, and Allison was nervous. It was a small plane. And we're on the runway in Monroe, headed out, and a panel from the roof falls into Allison's lap.

That's all of it. Let me out of here. We were going about 90. the time still on the ground. And Willie got to laughing so hard. He was like, that's the only thing. I've had to happen to me one time on a big airplane,

like just sitting there and my oxygen mast dropped down, but it's like the only one. I'm like, uh. Yeah, is this a sign? Yeah. Pull a little straps on. I'm just like, then of course, flight attendant runs back there.

It's like, oh, oh, oh, I'm so sorry. That was not supposed to happen. I was like, well, it's good. No, it works if it does. And if it doesn't. Yeah. We were coming in. I don't know where we had been, but we were on a big jet plane flying commercial.

And we had a lot of turbulence. And when we were coming down, there was somebody that had a lot to live for more than me. Because it was shaking, and I was scared, but the guy was yelling, put the landing gear down. Put the landing gear down. And I started freaking out. Then I was like, they don't have the, how does this guy know? Yeah, what does it matter? Like, yeah.

It scared me to death. Yeah, commercial flights are weird. I don't worry at all of them. I'm like, that's big airplane. Even if you crash. Whatever happens here, we're in trouble. Well, we hit some turbulence when then I think, uh, sign, ow and filling K.

But I was sitting in the back because I'm a pack mule when we go places. You back here on a tourlet. Yes. Yeah. I'm back there sitting and the turbulence was so bad. We dropped, like Si said. I don't know how far. it was but I went up and my head hit the light and turned it on and it was dark in the plane

and then it was light in the plane and they were looking at me like what just happened so I had to wrap a towel around my head not to do that again the best plane story though I've ever I wasn't on it and I just tell it like you were like side does yeah well they were y'all hit some turbulence and all of a sudden there was a loud pop and you're all freaking out and fills on there oh oh I thought that was my story was sigh. Remember when the glass broke? No. Oh yeah, that was another one. Yeah. Well, yeah. And like there's a loud pop and everybody like panics for a second. And Phil Robertson goes, well, boys, judgment day. Resurrection time, baby. Oh, no. He's just that coffee. Say, y'all's favorite stories

are all to do with like stuff where it's like, no, my favorite one, we did a deal with the Seminole Indian tribe. Uh, high five. Bro. How cool was that? That was like the biggest jet. Remember when she cooked breakfast for everybody? It had couches. It had couches. We ate omelets. Big screen TV.

Them Native Americans know how to travel through the air. Absolutely. Them boys got it figured out. And look, when we landed, there were four more just like it sitting there with their tribal symbol on it. I said, good on y'all for them hard rock casino, boys. That's good. Because y'all figured out to invest in premium air travel.

We made it from here to South Florida in like an hour and 15 minutes. It was wild how fast we went. It's not even enough time to enjoy the water things in life. Oh, no, no. Because she had time to cook us all of ham and cheese omelets. Oh, no. When you say first class, no, you've never really went first class unless you go with the Seminole Indians.

They know what first class really means. Ham and cheese omelets on the way there because we had to be there early. And then on the way back home, we had some kind of hot sandwich with like an azou. It was. With an angel serving you. Oh, she was so nice. And so beautiful. The best plane me and Willie ever got on, we were in Colorado.

And they're like, yeah, some guy here, he owns a business. He donated the plane ride for you guys. And we were like, okay, cool. And I'll probably take a nap on the plane. I was like, yeah, whatever. And then we get on it. And Willie's like, nope, I'm going to enjoy this. And you got there.

I said, what business does this man own? otterbox. I said, oh, okay, yeah. Oh, phone case. Oh, no. I bought one just for that. I was like, hey, man, I'm switching from whatever I have. Hey, the stewardess when we're walking up to get on the plane, welcome aboard, you know. And like I said, she's fine. Okay. And then the first time when I stick my head inside the plane, it ain't seats. Couches. It's luxury couches. That you literally just fall into and you're like a floating on the cloud.

I love a seminole. We had couches, we had breakfast, we had satellite TV. Yeah, it was legit. Cold pops. Yeah, it was. Tell me what kind of music you want on, darling? Oh, yeah, it was wild, man. You want to massage while you're here?

I was just thinking, you know what, good for them. And good for me for being on here, but good for them. Well, they're really good for them. The coolest thing about that trip was when the chief came out and we met all the Seminole football players. They were huge, and they had a good team that year. But the chief was talking to sign said, look, come back, we'll go duck hunting. And I was thinking, it ain't duck hunting season.

And the chief said, it is if I say it is. He said, there's no rules here. He said, what do you want to shoot? And I said, well, there's no season. He said, whatever you want to shoot is open, baby. Yeah, all right, great. Instead, we went and caught about 100 crappies. In on it.

Yeah, that's what we did. But, all right, let's take our last break. We'll be back right after this. All right, we're back. Hello at duck callroom.com is the email address. Johnny D. Fan time. Why are you holding a dagger? It is a letter opener made of a bullet and Damascus steel that Colin, Hayworth.

Hayworth handmade, he sent it to you, sent you a letter. That thing's sweet. So I said he was a throwing dagger. I said, I think it's a letter opener. But we discussed anything you throw can become a weapon. Any weapon is able to be thrown. So don't you know that? There was a book in there from someone.

There's a book? Yeah. Yeah, there was a book in there. And he got a book. Okay. Something about heaven. There you go. Okay.

All things new. Somebody sent you. Yeah. All things new. But we got a bunch of stuff. So thank you for that. But hello at duckcallroom.com. Josie.

I'm going to go with Josie. It could be Jossi. No, that's Josie. Josie. Josie Wells. Joe C. 13 years old from Minnesota. Okay.

She emails a question. Are we sure? She? Yes. Okay, good. She said that. Well, we've made that, you know, Pacey and all that stuff. We've made these mistakes.

I'm not great at this. The subject line was Uncle Sides of Miracle. Well, that's true. There's only one sentence that is a question. How is he still alive? I agree. And then there's a picture from a health website. about Vicks Vaporub,

it contains a poisonous ingredient when swallowed can cause seizures, coma, or death even in small amounts. How are you alive? I'm a miracle.

That's your question. He's immune to it, John, David. Have you ever ate it? Yeah. Like, ate it? Yeah. Okay. I thought, I didn't know

if absorption through the other way would consider, you know. Well, no, no. Took it by the spoon full. Look, that, and, you know. I know you put it all over you. I just didn't know you'd, like, put it on your tongue and swallowed it.

Hey. What'd that do for you? I bet that lit your tongue on fire. No, no, no. Because when you had a bad, bad sore throat, yeah. Mama would make you take a little bit, you know, and swallow it.

She didn't mix it in water, none. She did just straight on a spoon. A little bit. All right, yeah. Take a little bit. There you go. That is clearly against the later.

I had told Phil. You know, I don't get in there. your eyes because it's like gasoline. It's got a vapor to it, which will sting your eyes. So close your eyes, put it on your tongue, and roll. Yeah, hey. It'll sting your liver, too.

Well, I had a lot of stuff that do that. On this show, we have talked about swallowing Vic's vapor rub. Jossi has brought a great point. It says, don't do it. Now. Don't do it. Hey.

Yeah. I just felt like we needed a disclaimer there. Yeah, yeah, don't do. Yeah, no. I'm looking at a pair of books on. I do as the instructions say. as we do. I'm looking at a pair of boots on J.D.'s

Uh-oh. So Willie emails in. Okay. Willie Roberts? From Cleveland, Ohio. Okay. Willie from Cleveland, Ohio. And he said he wanted size opinion on these boots.

That looks like fingernails. That's snakes. Take them, take them and throw them in the garbage. How in the world would you walk with them? Or you can actually put him in a bonfire and burn them. So he's got two boots. that are made of snake skin, but they still got the head on. Yeah, I got King Cobra.

And the heads are sticking up off the toes. Yeah. Imagine if you had a toe that did that. Well, I would assume your toes still ends in the normal spot, and then this is all decor. Yeah, but I would trip and bust my butt so fast as something looked like that. If anybody's got a pair of these boots with the snake head still on it. Oh, I bet Joe Exotic does.

Well, he's in jail. If Joe, if you're listening and need some cash, The only thing I can take up, the only thing I can think of it right now is I have a 12-gauge shotgun in my hand. You're going to shoot your toe off. And I'm going to blow both of them heads all clean off of them boots. And your feet. File those boots under just because you can doesn't mean you should. Yeah.

Bally blessed. Good answer. Good answer. Case closed. File that one there. Yeah. Yeah. That is a, those were interesting boots.

You want to get semi- Well, serious enough? Or do we want to talk about fishing? Let's talk about fishing. Let's talk about fishing. Adam from Woodworth, Louisiana. Woodward. I just drove through there.

I was about saying, I don't know where it is. He told me it's just south of Alexandria. Yep, show is. I just went through there. My wife and I are the proud parents of five sons. Whoa. God bless y'all. His oldest boy is eight.

Okay. Oh. Y'all need to get Netflix or Disney Plus or cable. or something. Hey, look, and I live here. The winter ain't that cold. Eight boys, five boys under eight. I'm out. I got two. I'm done. That is a wild ride. But, hey, if that was, if you wanted a big wild boy family, congratulations. Well, my deal on that is you obviously are savvy enough to use the internet. Look up what causes that. That's why I told him get Netflix. I need another hobby. Good night. Like, get a fishing rod.

get him. There it is! That's the question. That's the question. So his oldest son has been begging him to take him fishing. Yeah. Good on you, oldest son. That's because he doesn't want another brother.

He's trying to slow him down. Try not to split up that inherits. Hey, crap, I don't blame him. Right, here's where you start. Okay, because John said, where's the start? Yeah, that's what he wants to know. Okay, get you a can pole, go dig some worms, put it in a can, take your kid to a good pond somewhere that's full of brim,

crappy, or brass? I'm going to go anti-that. Oh, you're going anti-war? But that's a good start. No, no, no, no, no, no, not that. I'm talking about the experience. Just like I tell everybody that wants to get into duck hunting new and things like that, there are places that cater to these kinds of experiences.

They cost money. But they're worth it. The amount that you would spend otherwise to not have as good of a time or as quality of time with your son, it's worth the, for the first time. I'm saying for the first one. Like, and your son may not even like fishing. He doesn't know if you haven't taken him. Like, just south of you there in Woodworth, there's a place called Grosavon.

I just got back from there. This is not a plug for them. They don't pay me a dime. We paid for our trip. Not a problem. Now, ours had a lot of meal. involved so it was it was the upper end they have day trips where you can drive up getting a boat and go fishing very reasonable rate take him on something like that like because they guide them and their guides know

and they're guaranteed to catch well and they're good with kids the guides are good with kids on explaining what they do how you do it why you do it and that way the kid can really learn have some fun they're going to reel them in and the kid has a great experience and then see how because he may fishing. He may go. I'm like, well, okay, that wasn't what I wanted to do. And then you're just out one fee instead of a bunch of tackling equipment that sits over there in a corner and collects dust and, you know, and now, granted, you may start a new obsession too, which is what we all hope happens for an eight-year-old, taking fishing, have fun. But look up those kinds of places and take them on something like that. There you go. That's my advice on. Take a kid fishing. Yep.

That should be a commercial. Was it a commercial? That's new. It might have been a commercial. as many times as I've sat here trust me that's new Hey you know what? He was sitting here Mountain man Mountain man was sitting here A couple weeks ago

Was he? Yeah Well there He's me and sigh Look at He's writing his name His name on here Oh mountain man

Anyway You want to send us out of here Oh sent us out of here With the good old My favorite fishing verse Uh oh here Are we going to be fishers of men Johnny did

No Oh Oh We're just gonna try and be like Jesus So I'm gonna tell you What Jesus did Okay. Luke 2440 through 43.

When he had said this, he showed him his hands and feet. And while they still did not believe because of joy and maimit, he asked them, hey, you got anything to eat? That's my own translation. A little ad lib there. They gave him a piece of fish, and he took it and ate it in their presence. Jesus ate fish, people. That's what Godwin always said.

Be like Jesus. Godwin says that in all his speeches. He said, you know what that tells me? There's fish fries in heaven. Amen. I like it. So yeah, man, take your kid fishing. You got 1,400 kids who might want to eat a lot.

I mean, catch a lot. Then fry them suckers up and eat them. Enjoy it. All right. We'll see y'all next time right here in the duck call room. We're out.
