I just got a lot of free time, Kay.
I don't know if you're aware.
Yeah.
Pretty aware of that.
And I think I'm going to turn it into productive time.
Well, what could you ever do?
Well, hopefully, hopefully, which I doubt very seriously.
Hopefully, I'm going to turn it by learning how to play a guitar.
Are you back on that?
I thought you did that for about 20 years.
Well, I know.
He's back.
Can't you pay somebody to teach you or you just can't learn it?
I've always said it was a God-given gift and God just is not going to give it to me.
I thought you just said you were going to spend all your pay.
I know, but I'm going to try it again.
Okay.
Since Mark's right, I got all this free time.
Surely I can put it to good use and learn.
If you get a teacher, you can.
By yourself.
I already had a teacher, okay.
And that didn't do any good?
No, it didn't do any good.
So you're just going to grab a guitar?
Hey, the student is the problem.
Okay, it ain't a teacher.
So what's your plan here to learn?
I don't know.
Well, you can't do nothing.
You can't do it.
Now you're not going to do it without any help.
I mean, and we're, oh, we've got to just know that.
I don't know why you don't.
I've got to figure out I've got a mental block on it is what the problem is.
Yeah, you've got a mental block on it.
Look, I can make the chords.
I just can't make the music.
Yeah.
But you won't ask for help.
But it might be the problem, okay.
White boys don't have rhythm.
My friends have more rhythm than you've ever seen.
Well, hey, that's what I'm talking about.
It may not be a bad idea.
Man.
You've got to find a man with rhythm, okay, and they get with it.
And maybe he can teach me the rhythm.
And blues.
All right.
Welcome back to the duck call room.
Okay.
Okay, y'all want to know what brother and sister squabble sound like at age 70.
That's what you just heard
You found it
We have a special guest today
If you couldn't tell
Kay's in the podcast
It's the old motto about
Hey you've got free time on your hands
So do something with it
Yeah
You're one to talk
You don't do nothing with your
You've been taking naps every day
For the last 85 years
I know and that's why I look so good
That's free time
Speaking of looking good Martin
Oh hey
Hey that's your it is really fine
there, buddy.
Did you ever hear that song,
Sharp Dressed Man?
That's it.
I did.
Once or twice.
It used to come on before this TV show that I used to watch before it turned terrible.
Yeah, that was opening a song for us.
It was.
Oh, that was us.
Remember they got out of that limousine?
Yeah, they did.
In front of their house.
Yeah, in front of their house.
Wearing their tuxedos.
That's right.
Wearing their tuxedos.
That's it, vintage.
Yeah, Phil would never own a tuxedo.
Louisiana hillbillies and it ain't no hills.
Oh, Lord.
It should have been called Louisiana Flatlanders.
What?
Well, Willie seems to be doing pretty good now.
Is he?
He's still got that blonde hair.
Who's telling him that's a good idea to, like, keep that going?
He just doesn't want to die it again.
I asked him over a day.
I did it.
I turned to keep it going because it aggravated people.
Oh, well
He's in his mid-life crisis
He's been in it
He's been in it for a long time
I know, but hey, that's just it
Yeah
He peaked on that when he bought that BMW
Off a parking lot
That was when I was worried about the boy
I was like
I was there for that
Yeah
I encouraged that
That thing went fast
And now it sits in the tour
Oh no, that BMW
I thought you're talking about the other one
No, not the other one
No, the other one was cool
Yeah
I'm talking about the one that's wrapped in duck camouflage.
Yeah.
That one.
Bad choice.
Where's it at?
Over there.
It's over there in the tour.
Oh.
Anybody can go by and touch it.
See it and sit in it.
Yeah, but no.
Well, somebody, it wasn't him, posted a picture of him making tacos,
and he still has that blonde hair.
I'm glad they did because the night before they posted on his story.
And they looked like pizzas because there was no, it was just a thing with,
cheese and some stuff under it.
And I was looking, there was a pot of corn.
I'm like, at what point does corn go on pizza?
Yeah, because there were no details.
Willie, everything he cooks is a pizza because it's got, you know,
a gratuitous amount of cheese on top of it.
He's a goulash man.
Yeah, Phil said, Phil said he just keeps adding and adding.
He's a gulish man.
Phil won't hardly eat it because he said, I don't know how much stuff he's got in there.
It looks.
But y'all ate what we cooked you the other night.
How was that?
Delicious.
What did he cooked all the night?
We cooked, me and Willie cooked them, a pork loin.
Oh, it was good.
Ode to pork.
The ode to pork.
It's a goulash.
It's a goo-losh.
It's a goo-losh.
It's a goo-lice.
It's a piece of pork stuff with other types of pork.
He keeps rolling through the kitchen.
Every time he opens something, he sees something on.
I wonder what that would taste like in this.
That's why Phil said he just keeps adding and adding and adding.
You know, he starts out with a little bitty pan, a little pot, I should call it, I guess.
And then he has to upgrade all the time because he keeps throwing junk in it.
And then by the time he's through, he's got about a 40-gallon, you know, big pot.
A bathtub.
Barely can't pick it up and get it on top of the stove.
I know.
And then at the end, he's trying to give it all away because they can't eat it.
But to his credit, it generally turns out pretty well, no, no.
Now, them dogs eat real good at Willie's house.
There's way too much food and he just feeds it to them dogs.
I don't call Christian that.
Oh, hey, taking it.
I was talking about spas.
Hey, you're not allowed to say spas anymore?
Why?
That's the dog's name.
That's the dog's name, but apparently it's a derogatory term now.
Oh, being a spas?
Yeah.
You can't call people that.
Well, you never really used it as a term of endearment.
Yeah.
I mean, I get it.
But really, does the dog know what your, is he know that's the improper name?
I don't know.
No, but for that dog, it's very fitting.
Beyonce had to take it out of one of her songs.
Really?
Yeah, it's derogatory.
If they're going after Beyonce, they'll go after anybody.
Yeah, so Willie's in trouble for naming his dog's poop.
That's pitiful.
But she can't change his name, or her name.
She's too old now.
You can change a dog's name.
I'm thinking about changing my dog's name.
To what?
I have no idea.
Malarkey?
Never.
You never.
That's like, now I got little Bobo.
Speaking of new dogs.
What's that?
What's that?
Okay.
Bobo.
And Beebe.
Yep.
Bobo and Bebe.
What Bobo is this?
Like the fifth or the sixth?
Six.
Bobo the sixth.
But it's really like, it's Jesse the sixth.
Well.
But Jesse.
But it's Bobo Jr.
Is his official new name.
Yeah.
Bobo Jr.
Okay.
How many Bobo?
But there's been a lot of Bobo.
About five Bobos already.
So how did this one get Junior instead of the fifth?
Because there was just.
a special part of it.
Because it'll fit in your hand.
These are the smallest one she's had.
That's right.
And they are so cute.
Have you got them potty trained yet?
Shoot, no.
And the best part is I put the two potty sheets, you know,
pee pads, I guess you call them, right in front of Phil's chair.
He gets little, he gets little titsy rolls.
He sees all during the day.
And that's what it is.
A stinky titty row.
That's all they do.
They be on the peepee.
Well, their bowel movements can't be that big.
No, that's what I said.
They're legitimately like in your hand.
You remember when them titsy rows were about that big?
I mean.
They started shrinking them.
Yeah, they did.
Inflation.
Well, I'm glad these dogs don't do anything,
but that's not hard to clean up.
But I love it over there right in front of feel.
What a stinky and freaky and sneaky and sneaky or
How many dogs?
Sleaky or whatever their names are.
They're freaking.
Now you got me confused on the name of my dog.
Penny and Griffey, they hate the dogs.
They hate the puppies.
They're growling all the time.
How many dogs are you up to?
Four.
Four dogs.
And I think Phil has one.
You know, he got tired of it being pinned up.
He didn't like it.
In that little pen, he said that was cruelty.
So we put it in the back of...
Phil's starting to become an animal.
At Daniel's yard, and Dan said he can jump over the fence.
And Phil said, well, let him run around the neighborhood.
So he's moved in, I think of it, Reds.
Oh.
That's generally where most strays end up.
Yep.
Right.
That is, boys.
Humans and dogs.
Yep, that's the truth.
That's where they end up right there, at the top of the hill.
And she'll, I don't know, I hope we got her fixed, but if not, we'll be having some real strays.
capital M U-T-T-T.
Wild West is one term for it.
There's a lot of other ones too.
That's one.
So, Kay, we're going to go to break,
but I want you to be thinking about what we're going to talk about when we come back
because I see you've been injured.
Again.
Again.
An injury is.
We're going to talk about your injury when we get back, Kay.
So stupid.
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 Triedells beef makes such a good product, baby.
Ain't it good?
It's so good.
Our friend, Sall Robertson would say, buy on the grill.
Look, before we got Triedells, 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 Tritails beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way.
Triedales 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'll 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 Triedails Beef.
I know in size case, Christine loves it,
which is just a, she doesn't eat meat.
She isn't a big meat easier, folks.
Yeah.
Just go to trybeef.com slash.
That's trybeef.com slash support ranch families
and eat some dang good steak.
How would you like to have it?
I felt terrible.
This is what I have to do every hour.
What?
Huh?
What are you doing?
I'm trying to raise my fingers.
Therapy.
Exercise.
Okay, what happened to?
We talked about it briefly a couple of podcasts ago because I told him I was down there, but we wanted to hear it from you.
What happened to your hand?
Well, I was rocking in my chair on the front porch and this stupid yellow jacket.
He was landing on my arm and fetched to sting the crap out of me.
So I just took my hand from over.
here to get him.
Careful.
And when I hit, I missed him and when I came up from that, this hand was never the same.
Did you hit anything?
My arm.
You hit your arm, you hit your hand on your other arm.
And I guess I'm such strength.
I have so much strength.
It just, look, it just fell apart.
Adrenaline.
This was being at the hospital all day.
You had to go to the hospital?
Oh, yeah. No, I went to an orthopedic clinic, actually.
But I wound up in there rehab. Now I'm in the rehab.
So, you know.
So you had to go to rehab.
You got to have physical therapy.
Well, yeah, you got to get back.
She does that three times a week anyway.
I can't even do that right now because I'm doing this right now.
Okay. Yeah.
I can't. I got one therapy on top of another. I can't get to them all.
So Kay, would you say you're aging gracefully?
No, because you know what?
I've got to get something on it now so I can even take a bath.
Oh, you can't.
Oh, you can't even take it all.
No, no.
And they say, oh.
That's a legit cast.
What did they say what's wrong with?
Well, this middle finger, okay, at the bottom, there's two things.
What are they?
Because I know y'all are smarter than me, but there's two things right there.
Okay.
Knuckle.
No, that's a knuckle up here.
So, they're on the bottom.
They're tendons.
Yeah.
Tendons and I and I did something to both tendons
You strained them
Strain them both of them
Yeah
I know it was a funny color when I first saw it
It did not look well
But nothing's broken
No but it
I mean I might as well have done it
The way it feels it has to wear all this all the time
It's so weird
Yeah and you're to watch me now right with my left hand
I'm sorry
I'm very interested in this
It looks like, didn't you have a four-year-old at one time or another?
Got one right now.
Okay, how he writes is how I write.
Well, that really hadn't changed.
I mean, your handwriting has never been.
Oh, yeah.
Well, no, it's unreadable now.
So you're writing with your left hand.
Are you cooking?
Well, I try to do this to write, but I can only print like this.
Are you cooking?
Are you cooking with your left hand?
left hand? Do you think I am?
No, cooking's out.
No.
Because she's got everything she's got
his iron skillet. So can you eat with
your left hand? I can.
I can eat with, I can manage to
eat no matter what.
But this is funny.
Okay, y'all left at this.
Absolutely, I'd love to.
I have to eat everything with
a spoon.
Oh, no fort. I'm spoon fed now.
You got, what? Why?
Because the fork
I can't get the fork to work, but the spin will work.
All her forks are right-handed.
Every one of them.
Every one of them.
No left-handed fork in the drawer.
No.
Unbelievable.
I'll go buy you some.
Some left-handed fork?
Mm-hmm.
Good idea.
They don't even make it.
But it's just like, it just won't change.
It's just like this all the time.
How long ago did that happen?
I got all this done two days ago.
Okay.
But it was about a week old.
injury. We filmed last Tuesday, didn't? Yeah, a week. Tuesday was a week ago when me and
Willie were down there and you did it that morning, I think. I don't think it's, I didn't
been that long. You missed, I did another injury. It wasn't anything like this. I have little
injuries and they don't count. This is a big injury. It sounds like you're injury prone.
Do you think? Yeah, maybe. Phil said I'm an accident waiting to happen. It ain't when.
Or it ain't if it's going to happen.
It's when.
Yeah, okay.
But I could have done more dangerous things.
Such as.
I could have hurt you.
I could have fell and crashed your head in or something.
Who knows?
There you go.
It's taking a violet turn here in the black.
Or you could have actually killed the yellow jacket.
That's not.
That's got to be like the real rub in this whole thing.
You didn't even get your foe.
Didn't even get him.
Yeah.
I hate them.
Well, at least he didn't sting me.
That is true.
I mean, I got totally injured, but I didn't get a, I don't have that.
I'd have taken the sting over that.
You know what I said?
You know what I said?
I said the same thing myself.
I wish you had just stoned me and left my hand where it was.
There it is.
There you go.
But a girl doesn't know her own strength.
That's what the problem is.
Is your arm bruised from where you hit it?
No, it's nothing.
Where I hit it, it's nothing.
It's the hand.
That's because her arm was so strong.
Yeah.
It wasn't really the hand.
It was the strength in the left arm.
That caused the abrupt stop.
Yep.
That caused the strain, sprain.
Yeah.
That's right.
And now I live with this ugly thing, and I'm glad it works.
Don't talk about Phil like that.
Hey, this, y'all would not believe how this look.
They molded it to my hand.
Look at it.
It's made from my hand only.
You couldn't wear it.
It was telling her finished.
So is Phil taking it?
good care of you?
Oh, yeah.
What's he doing?
Well, if he wants to eat, he cooks.
Or he finds something to make sandwiches out of.
Does he cook you food and make you a sandwich?
Well, I usually have my girl there to take care of me.
Now, at night or other times, he will do it for me.
Yeah, but then it's so hilarious me eating with my left hand.
I do want to watch that.
It is so funny.
With a spoon.
Oh, yeah.
With a spoon.
With a spoon.
And I have to wear a big bib thing.
I bought it to eat crawfish with.
Is it one with the plastic one with the crawfish on it?
Yeah.
How did you know I had that?
Everybody's got some of those from eating crawfish.
That's fantastic.
So when you see the crawfish thing on me, you know I'm fishing to eat.
That's hilarious.
Well, that's the best part about Ms. Kay, though.
Like, she's laughing about it.
Oh, yeah.
And I'm only laughing because I know she's okay.
Like, that first time when I asked her, I stopped the GoPro and was like, are you really okay?
She's like, yeah, it just hurts.
And I was like, well, as long as you're okay, we can giggle out.
Well, if I can't laugh about it.
Well, Ms. Kay's got to be tough because she's been married to feel for her.
Oh, that's the truth.
That's a truth.
Because you were telling me something right before Martin got here,
I didn't know Phil wrestled in his sleep.
Oh, thank you.
I'm glad you brought that up.
Did you know that?
Phil's a night terror guy?
He fights.
He don't wrestle.
He fights.
He's just airboxing.
He rolled off the bed, which I couldn't help but laugh and hit that floor.
So I was waiting to see.
And then I heard him and he was hitting his fist in the carpet.
Boom, boom.
So I said, well, you kill him?
the bed are you going to try to kill the floor or two?
When was this?
It was a few nights ago.
Oh, recent.
Recent.
Yes, he did.
She was saying that's part of the hand trauma is she's got to put up a bunch of
pillows between her and Phil.
King size pillows.
King size.
What's going on down?
No, no, no.
My brother, she married a pioneer man, okay?
Yeah, and I want to get to it.
Back in the pioneer days, they followed a lot of Indians.
Okay, Phil's always fighting Indians at night.
In his sleep?
No, he fights, he fights every kind of nationality there is.
Oh, he believes in equality.
Oh, sweet Jesus.
Okay. That's right. There ain't no races in them, okay?
He believes in equality.
And he's going to beat up everybody.
That's right. He beat them all up.
Well, he's done killed the bed and the floor.
What's next?
And he, well, he hit the nightstand, but that nightstand won on that one.
He got hurt.
Wait, you got hurt fighting the nightstand?
Yeah, he hit it and it didn't move.
But he had a sore head.
He had a sore head.
Yeah, he head butted the nightstand?
Yeah, he head butted the nightstand.
So I just thought-
Well, I thought about getting a twin-sized mattress
and just putting it on his side of the bed on the floor.
And that way he can just roll over and sleep there, I guess.
I'm thinking about getting both of y'all a bubble.
What in the heck?
Well, welcome to old age.
You're going to be there.
I agree.
Si's there.
I don't know what he does.
Si doesn't fight anything while he's sleeping.
The only thing Si fights while he's sleeping is urination.
That's the only thing that's causing him any grief while he's...
I got to wake up.
No, I have a theory.
More a minute.
Love to hear it.
Okay.
Well, you know, there was about 10 bad years in Phil's life,
which I shared with him.
And during those 10 bad years,
he fought all the time.
He really did, really fight.
Because when you get a certain amount of alcohol in you,
it does different things to different people.
He turned him into a fighter.
A fighter.
Okay.
So that's what he did.
He fought.
So I think when he dreams,
he dreams about those 10 years,
he acted like that,
and he just starts living it out.
So, but it was fine.
I put my pillows up, but the first he started, one night I woke up and he was beating my feet up.
And then I woke up and he's kicking my leg.
And then that's when I said, that's it.
He was playing football that night.
I'm putting.
That's why I wasn't.
He was playing football that night.
He was back on the field of check.
Making shoestring tackles and dead legs.
I'm telling you, I was about to get bruises over that.
So that was it.
And I put the big Kingsets up there.
So I've been basically protected since that.
The other night, though, he did manage to get down to the bottom of my bed.
And with his feet, he kicked my feet.
I said, leave, I just screamed, leave my feet alone as loud as I could.
The dog started barking.
He said, what is it?
It's a man when the dogs, you wake up the dog.
Yeah, they don't know what's happening.
That's wild.
Yeah.
We got to get y'all them cameras in y'all's, I need this.
Now, they need to put at least an inch thick plexiglass
right down the center of their bed.
Okay.
He kicks that glass.
He really going to get hurt.
All right, well, I'm just saying it'll protect K.
Yeah, I don't know.
So he's a active dreamer.
I would say so.
I would say.
Remind me to never, like, go wake him up.
Don't worry.
You won't.
Oh, no.
That's one thing.
thing they tell you.
Don't ever wake a person up.
That's like that.
You do it very gently.
Not Kay.
She starts yelling.
He's not being alone.
One night I just started hitting on him,
just not hard, just slapping him and saying,
wake up, wake up, you're acting so stupid again.
So, I mean, I just thought when we were,
oh, we'd just go to sleep and be sweet.
No, we ain't that at all.
I am.
Restlessness.
Well, let's take a break.
We'll be back right after this.
Well, Kay, if y'all are having that much trouble sleeping,
why don't you just sleep in your other bedroom?
I knew you was going to say that.
Why?
What's wrong with sleeping in the other bedroom?
I just didn't seem right to me.
I think the wife should sleep with her husband.
Oh, so it doesn't have...
Even if he may kill her in the night.
So it doesn't have anything to do with that bedroom's full of stuff, huh?
Yeah.
Well, every room I got is full of stuff.
You ain't found in no room at my house.
It's not full of stuff.
So at least you can get a path.
There's a path on every room and every bathroom.
They need sleep therapy.
Is there such thing?
There is.
Are you a doctor of it?
No, but I was just telling you.
Oh, but he excels that.
They need sleep therapy.
Hey, Mark, can you?
I'm a very average student of sleep.
Can you, and John David, picture, Phil going to a sleep doctor?
No.
No.
Never.
The sleep doctor would have to make house calls.
Oh, no, I think so that would be interesting.
They need to put this on film.
Yeah, let me tell you something.
For posterity.
He would say, if I said, let's go to the sleep doctor, he would say, have you lost your mind?
I'm not going to no stupid sleep doctor.
I said, but you have a problem with sleep.
He said, well, you seem to be the one having the problem with what I do.
Yeah, always bring it back to me.
Everybody I should live with anybody that just knocked you out at night or whatever.
You got to do the Robertson thing.
I said, I thought when you quit drinking, all this was over.
That was like 50 years ago.
So you think he's reverting?
Like going back to his parents?
I do.
I think that 10 years somehow did something to him and he thinks about it at night and then he fights again.
He loved fighting.
He was good at it too
Yeah, he was very good
I think he whipped a lot of people
He's pretty sporty
You look at the size of his hands
You look and say yeah no
I get it
Yeah I mean I'm going to tell you what happened
This is true story
Y'all love this
Well you know he was converted
So he was trying so hard to have Bible studies
With people
Because he wanted to try to change
You know so it would help him
But this one guy was
arguing with him
and Phil said if this would have been a few years ago when you'd said that to me like arguing with him like that
he said I'm going to tell you something he said I would have this fist just like he put up his fist and he said I'd have been right through your head and and the guy said well you're not still like that and Phil said well I'm trying not to be
but I'm saying I might can be pushed to do it if you keep on if what you're doing right now so then I got to
and I said, why don't we try this another night?
And maybe it was somebody here that could protect him.
Yeah, that's good.
That's a good call.
So, Phil, yeah, Phil quit working on people's head and started working on their heart.
There it is.
He's been very more successful on working with a heart.
Yeah, he has.
But he will bounce your head.
If he's got it.
Doesn't matter who you are.
Even if he's dreaming.
Two different guys, I remember Mike, it was yesterday.
They were the only two that he actually made a fist.
and he told him and said,
you know, I get this fist right here
and they were like,
are you going to hit me?
And he said, well, I was thinking about it,
but now that I'm Christian,
I can't do that.
But it's not that I can't make the fist
and think about it.
Were you a fighter, sir?
No, he's a lover.
I'm a lover.
I ain't no doubt about it, son.
Ain't no fighting, Zah.
Did you and Phil ever fight growing up?
Oh, we had our squabbles.
Did he whoop you?
Oh, yeah.
Every time.
Yeah, Daddy always threatened.
He told him, said, hey, one of these days, y'all was going to keep messing with him,
he's going to pick up a baseball bat and crushed.
Talking about you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what happens to the one that gets picked on.
Yeah.
One of the days, you're going to push him too far, and then he's going to break,
and somebody said, get hurt.
So who was the best fighter out of the brothers?
Phil or Tommy?
That'd be my two guys.
That'd be tied, I think.
Yeah.
No, the two older brothers were mean.
Harold and Jimmy Frank?
Harold and Jimmy Frank.
I don't know if it had to do with, you know, being the first of the oldest or whatever.
Well, when y'all were the poorest, too.
Well, no, I'm just saying, hey, Harry, Jim and Frank and Harold both had a mean streak in them.
Thank you.
I agree.
I amen that.
You're not too.
And I guess it was.
I saw it.
They worked on the farm, you know, back in the day when you actually, you know, a lot of work.
Well.
A lot of hard work.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, they had a pretty hard life.
And then sigh came along.
Well, no, no.
Rainbows.
Sy and Jan.
I always call,
that it was what I'd call a hard man.
Feels the same way.
Okay, no.
But.
It's a weakness, you know, they were brought up, okay,
to not show any kind of emotion.
Mm-hmm.
Okay, because that was a sign of weakness.
Yeah, that's true.
And that was just the way they was brought up.
You know, that was about, you know, that's why Phil's motto was always been,
who's a man?
Yeah.
You know, and every time he had said, I said, I'm a little boy.
Yeah.
I'm a mouse.
Leave me out.
I'm out.
I ain't a man.
I'm a little boy.
Well, you did do aggravating things.
You're going to do that stupid man stuff somewhere else.
Say you would aggravate them and then run.
I know.
I saw many of that happen.
Oh, so that's.
They aggravated me first.
I know.
And then you got yours in, then you ran as fat.
You could outrun everybody, so.
But they better be glad I had a very kind heart.
Yeah.
Why is that?
Probably killed them.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
My wife has only seen me mad, what, twice?
And she'll tell you herself she don't want to see the third time.
So that Robertson exists.
Oh, no, it exists.
I think it existed in all of them.
Yeah.
You know, you just had to push me along.
But Willie's got a lot of sigh in him because Willie's a throw-and-runner.
I mean, from all the stories of growing up, he was a throw-and-run.
Make his move and then run.
And then gone.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They called him sneaky snake.
Who did?
Everybody.
Called Willie that?
Sneaky snake.
And then, but who was the real sneaky snake was Jason?
Old flick.
Yeah, because he would do it and you wouldn't know Jason did it.
And then he would just be laughing to himself, you know, like.
They don't know I did it.
Oh, so he was a little conniving.
Well, he was at.
And then with me, though, if I said it was black, he said it's green.
If I said it's red, he said it was blue.
I mean, everything.
He didn't know his colors?
He just didn't.
Anything I said, he was not going to agree with it.
And Phil would say, would y'all both be quiet?
Would y'all just both shut your mouth, me and Jace?
I said, he started.
And then Jace had to come back.
That's blame.
And here we go, around 1700.
That's how many times me and him are you.
Oh, my goodness gracious.
And then Jep came along.
The baby.
And nobody cared.
And he was the baby.
All care had gone.
They're like, oh, you're the baby.
You're the baby.
How much younger is Jeff than Willie?
He's what?
Seven.
Seven?
Yeah, seven years younger.
Seven years.
Yeah, they weren't close.
No.
In age or?
No, I just mean, you know,
Jep was the baby and he was seven so everybody couldn't send him because, you know, he was just the baby.
They was all grown.
Jep wasn't a fighter.
No, Jep wasn't a fighter.
No, Jep wasn't a lover, not a fighter.
Jep wasn't, yeah.
Oh, he was a baby in every sense of the word.
Thank you.
Coddled by mom, you know, yeah.
But he's a man now, so he's got five children.
He does.
Martin taking shots at Mama's boys.
I am one.
Yeah, thank you.
Self-admitted.
You know how you can take shots at them?
Because when you are one.
Right.
guilty guilty
me too
you know how much
well sye you know how much
granny helped raise jeb
so you know he had to be
fortunately he was three years old when he started
playing his first domino game
so the time he was seven
he could beat anybody couldn't he
they played a lot of dominoes every day
so I want to be it every day
I'm shocked at that none of us had
cancer
why's oh yeah
the smoking the smoke
Oh, no.
He'd walk in Mama's
living room.
And it looked like there was
a giant cloud inside the house
that was just about
a foot over everybody's head.
They just hotbox and sagger. It's inside.
All right. Look, Daddy would light
one, take one drag off up, put in
an ashtray.
Lay it, lay it. Then turn around.
Yeah. It just burned up by itself.
Then turn around and light another one.
Take a couple drags off up. Put it in an
tray. You got about seven or eight.
It was that way he was smoking.
And look, I'm talking about it was a haze, okay?
And think about what they could have had
if he hadn't spent all that money on cigarettes.
I'm just saying, hey.
I'm shocked that none of us even got cancer.
I'm serious.
Unbelievable.
Because it was, I'm talking about, like, two foot from the ceiling down
and about all a foot over your head when you sit at the domino table.
So it was a house that was a bar.
Yeah, poo-haw.
Yeah, it's Pohol.
Domino.
Domino halls.
Yeah.
Domino Hall.
There you go.
But to this day, hey, you're talking about some Domino playing rascals.
Man.
The old family.
The 1900s were wild.
Oh, no.
The best one ever played was Jimmy Frank and Harold, and it was against Al and Jason.
And I think Al and Jason, Al may have been 12 and Jason was 10, I guess.
Okay.
Jimmy Frank Harold are like 25, 27.
They needed five to go out.
Al and Jason needed 150.
Two hands later, bam, they're beat.
Jim Frank and Harold got beat.
And needed five points to win.
And they got...
Why can I say?
I've trained up a bunch of whizzes in the Domino world.
How's it?
I don't even know how to play Dominoes.
5, 10, 15, 20.
25, 30, 35 is the bigger one.
And this is my favorite thing.
Break dominole, break dominole, break thumbs, or break the table.
It's the way you do, you'll, um.
But you have the don't.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, don't hurt yourself, man.
This is my good.
I know, that's what I'm saying.
We don't need you down the boat.
Yeah, she's going left in it, too.
She's faked to break the other one.
I know, but I can't help it.
Just slam that last dominole.
Been around it too long.
Nobody would believe how loud that last dominole.
What are you talking about?
I mean, we've broken, literally broke tables.
I believe it.
And dominoes.
And dominoes.
And I'm talking about, hey, these are made out of ivory, and we broke them.
Yeah.
Gone.
Yeah, gone.
Just like we are.
Let's take another break.
We'll be back right after this.
You have made a switch from old tubelware to stainless steel.
Well, it holds ice all day.
Ice all day.
It'll keep it there all right.
Better than that little rubber thing you had or plastic.
It's tubelware.
Tupperware.
Tupperware.
Nobody young knows what that is.
I know a Tupperware.
Martin, do you know what Tupperware is?
I'm not young.
I guess we're back, boys.
Yeah, we're rolling.
Yeah, we're rolling.
Oh, I was doing an Instagram story with Kay, and I was just letting her talk.
Well, okay.
Well, where are we going from here, Ms. Kay?
What do you got going on this?
Yeah, what's new?
Other than the injuries, what you got coming out?
Well, what really do I have planned to do with this?
You know, I mean, it's not like you can do a lot.
I'm not going to bowl.
or anything like that, I'll tell you that.
Well, we're approaching your favorite time of year.
It's almost hunting season.
Yeah, yeah.
I can't wait to be.
Well, he walked me up this morning at 620.
What I said was when you get ready to leave,
because, you know, he wakes up,
and he walks out the door at like seven
because he got to drink his coffee
and watch the weather and all that stuff.
So I said, when you leave, wait me up.
So at 620, he said, get up, get up, get up.
I said, you're leaving.
and he said, no, I'm just getting up.
I said, do you don't remember any instructions?
Yeah, you told me to wake you up.
He can't follow instructions.
That's all he got out of that was wake me up.
Well, yeah.
So the dogs were glad, so it was good, I guess.
Quick question.
Were you going to go bowling if you didn't hurt your hand?
Not really.
Okay, I was just checking.
I didn't know if you were going to go bowl left-handed.
A secret bowling league.
No, but you remember they may be doing it,
one of the show episodes.
Oh yeah, you did go bowling.
Yeah, well, first I threw about 10 gutter balls before I ever got it.
And then I did throw a strike somewhere in there.
I'm terrible at bowling.
Oh, awful.
Throw it hard and see what happened.
Oh, no.
I used to be good at it.
You did?
Of course you did.
I bowled in a bowling league.
You ever hit 300?
I come close.
About 396, I think.
2.96?
Yeah, 2906.
You bowed a 296?
I, I, regularly bowed a 96.
I was, what, 9, 10, yeah, the last two.
No, last ball.
You got nervous.
Last ball.
I had, I had like, what, 11 in a row?
Mm-hmm.
I had 11 in a row.
I told me, all right, baby, I'm on a row.
And then put up a six box.
Oh, no.
No, I left it during 10 pen.
Oh, so 299.
It was a perfect, it was perfect.
It should have went down, but it left the darn 10th pin.
You know what happened when they were filming me when I was bowling?
I went off and I went to throw the ball and it didn't come out,
and me and the ball just went down the lane.
That's it.
That's right.
That was on video?
They did it.
Yep.
On camera.
That's what should have got if you don't watch the show.
That's happened.
If something about it, it gets sweat.
If something wrong, it won't come off.
Well, it wasn't funny because it seemed funny.
funny but then like I couldn't stop myself and then I finally went down on my knees and I was like
to the person watching it is funny it is one that happened to a day it's happened to me
that is correct in fairness to the one listening to the story it's pretty funny still oh no no oh
only because you're okay yeah it's hilarious because I've had it out of me you went down the lane
oh yeah really yeah something about hey it gets any side sailing down the bowling lane your fingers
swell or something, I mean, especially if you're so hard.
Well, hey, you ride back and let her go.
Well, hey, you're fixing to follow it because it ain't coming off.
And down the lane, you go.
Like you're talking about, hits your knees, scrape your knees up, skin your knees up,
everything get up.
Good grief.
Yeah, if it's a way to get hurt, I'll find it.
Then you've got to tell me, hey, come help me get this ball off my stupid fingers.
Thank you.
So it's like legit stuff.
Oh, no.
Like finger trap stuff.
It's, it's, it, your finger's swell or something, and then you don't realize it,
and you've rear back and let her go like you're going to let her go with you.
You don't let her go.
You go with it.
Man, I thought that only happened on cartoons and stuff.
Oh, no.
It's hilarious to watch.
Just don't be in there.
Watching somebody else do it, it's funny.
But it's you?
No, ain't no funny to it.
You hurt your knees, scrape your knees up, you know?
I really did get hurt when I was being filmed.
I did get hurt, but I didn't tell them I was hurt.
So I went over and sat down and they said, well, how many, can you do some more?
And I said, not at the moment.
Thank you.
No, not today.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Not today.
Not today.
I guess I haven't bowled enough for that to happen to me.
Oh, yeah.
If you bowl a lot, it'll happen, trust you.
Or maybe your neck never accident prone.
Maybe you're that man.
No, me and John David would get ankles of fine glass.
Like, we roll an ankle and end up on the ground.
in a heartbeat.
That's nothing new for either one of us.
I went through a spell in junior high where I was in the emergency room about five times in one year.
Cut part of my finger off, had a concussion on rollerblades.
Yeah, that was dumb.
Broke my knee.
Stuck a pair of tweezers in a light sock.
I didn't go to the emergency room for that one.
My bad.
That's a gate and rings.
No, I was, I was, uh...
Gate and rings are dangerous.
No, I was in the driveway.
My friend was on a scooter.
I was on rollerblades.
Yeah, that's two problems.
And I was winning the race, which is rare for me in life to win some sort of speed contest.
Preach, buddy.
And then the guy goes, help, stop him.
And one kid was playing basketball, and he said, okay, and he threw the basketball at me, hit my rollerblades.
I hit my head on the concrete.
And next thing I know, I was in the hospital.
So he decleded you on rollerblades.
With a basketball.
Yeah, he's a good shot.
Justin Hollis.
And he was the biggest kid, so he threw it hard.
Justin could fling him.
He would pick me up.
We were on the same Little League team,
and he would carry me around upside down because he was so much bigger than me.
You didn't want to play Doddball with his club.
No, no, this kid.
He might have even played college baseball for us.
He was really good and really athletic.
I think he did.
But I don't remember.
They, like, took me across the street to some people's house.
Nope.
No memory.
They were asking me what day of the week it was.
Nothing.
I was gone.
Concussed.
Processing protocol.
I was concussed.
Yeah.
I've never been, well, I don't know.
So basketballs and rollerblades don't mix, folks.
No.
I look at rollerblades and I see nothing but an accident, waiting to happen.
Kind of like ice skates.
Oh, no, no.
Oh, I'm not doing that.
No, no.
Have you ever ice skated?
No, roller skating.
And just, I finally got so sore and so bruised up that the last thing I'm going to do is fall.
I finally stand up and skate because, hey, I'm so beat up, I can't stand to fall again.
I'm serious, I'd go home, take a shower, you know, take a shower, and, hey, my whole body's bruised.
Why would we keep going back?
Everybody did it.
We just loved to go to the racer, you know, date ring.
I went skate, town.
Oh, no, let's go.
Yeah, but your day and age, like, the skate rink was the thing, wasn't it?
Oh, no, yeah, it's a big deal.
Yeah.
For those that can really skate, you know,
because those that could really skate, come by, you and knock you over.
I just never wanted them.
I thought you'd be like one of the people doing the disco, skating backwards.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I ain't coordinated enough for that.
I'd always make it about two rounds through that limbo deal,
then your boy was out.
Oh, the limbo wasn't fair.
And all them kids go out there and, like, straighten their legs all the way out.
And I was like, no, hammer.
Going backwards in you all that.
Oh, okay, you show off.
Yeah, they go up under the limbo pole backers with one leg out.
Yeah, oh, yeah.
No.
Oh, no, yeah.
I mean, unreal.
It must be all they doing their life is practice out.
No, I mean.
Just coordination.
I couldn't do it.
Some people got it.
Flexibility, too.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Some of them got it.
Some of them ain't.
We, I think I can speak for the duck call room and say, we ain't.
We ain't.
Ain't none of us touched our toes.
Ain't none of us touched our toes in a hot minute.
Yeah.
I'm into we ain't.
All I would see is a hospital visit.
Yeah.
Every time I went to a birthday party at Skate Town,
I was like, man, I hope the next one to the bowling alley.
Let's do something.
Just try to do something different next time.
Up until today, I didn't associate the bowling alley with dangers.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
Skate and ring and bowling alley.
But that magnet about broke my thunk.
Good night.
Oh, yeah.
What was that?
That was.
See, we play with.
We have a lot of desk toys in here.
Oh, yeah.
All right, well, let's take our last break.
Do we have some K emails we can get to?
Actually, I don't know.
Oh, well, hold on.
We're going to go to break.
We'll look through there, see if we find any emails for Ms. Kay.
We'll be back right after that.
All right.
Well, I got an email from Kelsey from Alabama.
And it's, I, we're going political, gang.
Roll-down.
Because we got T-shirts that say, Phil for president.
Okay.
I've got one.
I almost wore it today.
She loves the podcast very much and listens all the time.
I was thinking that this country needs more Christian redneck presidents.
Would any of y'all want to be president?
No.
Why or why not?
And she would vote for us.
Oh, good.
Well, that's great.
There's one.
Well, I'm going to tell you something.
I wouldn't want my husband to be president for nothing.
Number one, our government would run itself during duck season.
There would be no president inside.
So if the country needed to be something, you know, if somebody's blowing us away,
well, it'll just happen because he won't be at post.
Yeah, but they could call them in the Duffline.
No, they can't.
No phones in the Dutflin.
Well, that's true, too, though.
Okay.
Secret service surrounding the DutBuy?
Cy, would you ever want to be president?
No.
No.
Not only that, the country couldn't handle me.
I deregulated everything there is up there.
And I would fire about 50% of the people up there at work in Washington, D.C.
Just fire, like, fire them on the spot.
He said we're cleaning house, boys.
Yeah.
Tell me, hey, pack your bags and leave the area.
You know, you do have to have something called a reason for fire.
Oh, I got a reason.
I'm president of the United States.
That's the only reason.
That's all the reasons I need.
That's the reason you'll never be president.
Well, hey, there you go.
A man's man, so of it.
I got no interest in any political office.
Me either.
None.
I have not.
I do not.
have one single bone, political bone in my body.
None.
I've told you that's Carter's new goal in life.
President?
He wants to be the president.
Well, hey, go for it.
Direct quote, they're going to carve my face in that rock right beside Abraham Lincoln.
Well, there you go, baby.
Go, Connor.
I'm in.
Hey.
Carter wants to be, I got, uh-uh.
Hey.
I don't want to be mayor.
I do kind of want to be mayor just so we can get a Buckees.
Tell him, you know, somebody to be Secretary of the Interior.
Secretary of Interior
Let me run the wildlife
Now that's what you need
Let me
Let me take a swing at that for four years
See what we get
See what we got
See what we end up with boys
Well I feel with the president
It'd be a lot less wild game
We're going New Zealand rules
It's open season boys
That's right
Hey I've been to New Zealand
Corn is in
No limit on ducks
Hey, moonlight.
Moons lights.
You lost my.
All right, well, Kelsey, if you're wanting one of us to run for office of any sort, we don't want to job.
You're going to have to wait on Carter.
Yep, we don't want to the job.
I mean, you may get Willie talked into it.
That seems like something that...
Well, he already thinks he is the person.
Would blow up his skirt, but...
Yeah, it is.
I mean, he's the only one with the personality that...
Well, it's more like a governor than a president.
Yeah.
Oh, no, but if you do that, no, you can go.
for the press too boys
you want to be a governor
it's election season it's in your blood
go ahead and go for the big one
Kay kind of like our current president
just keep getting hurt me
don't get on a bicycle
that's not true
I've understood every word
that's come out of Kay's mouth today
yeah
now I mean now it cut down
everything my physical therapy
it's gone to pot
I mean what can I do
I mean I'm just like this
I'm going to see if they'll come and do.
I mean, I can stand in place and walk,
and I can kick my legs out and do a few things.
But I mean, I can't do all of it, but I could do something.
But he'd have to sign the paper not to injure my arm, of course.
For the folks that don't know, Kay, why don't you tell them where you do your physical therapy?
In my living room.
And where else?
A duckman.
What do you have a company for if I can't use a blank.
room. I'm not worried about it. It is literally one of my favorite days of the week as your physical
therapy up here. Because you come up here and visit. Yeah. And you make me laugh because you
Well, what about the time they couldn't find a room for me? So they put me over there at Sadie's.
And they said, she's not coming in. And then we're just working away and then comes Sadie and
other people doing work. And I'm like, oh dear.
Oh, dear. Your ownership ain't got you much anymore, doesn't. I was just laying on the floor.
I said, hey, just keep doing it.
Okay, keep doing it.
Well, now this room right behind this wall is Kay's workout room.
Yeah, right there.
Right there.
A room right behind there.
You got to have somewhere to work out.
Well, because I needed to be able to listen to her
because she tells some really good stories while she's working.
She never stops talking while she's doing physical therapy, and it is fantastic.
Well, here's the deal.
First, y'all said I could use my own boardroom, and then the next thing I know,
and then the next thing I know, we can't, I can't use the boardroom.
because Christians moved in there.
Hey, you take that up with other people.
I ain't got nothing to do that.
Take it up with a power street.
That's why I volunteered for you to have our lounge.
That's what I call it.
Yeah, and I took it too.
Yeah, it's nice.
I just have to walk back and forth more times, but who cares?
So Christian took your board room?
He did?
Took the conference room.
Gone.
Gone.
I'd like to see it, really, and see what happened.
Well, we can go over and we get done with this.
It's just right there.
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
I said, well, I thought I still own half of this, me and Willie, together.
The building or the...
Duck Command.
Yeah, the problem is Duck Commander don't own the building.
Oh, Willie owns a building that's a cheap.
Classic move.
Classic Willie.
You pay Willie rent.
How does that feel?
You know what?
He's been doing that to me since he was six years old.
Hey, I'll tell you this.
It'll make me give me back his lunch money because some reason I don't know.
Okay, I'll tell you.
this though as general manager of your company that you're a part owner in,
I fight for us to pay the least amount of rent possible every year.
That's it.
I don't know what good it does because it's still the same amount,
but dead gumming, I fight for it.
Rent's going up, boys.
Well, he can't touch my money, so I ain't worried.
I ain't going broke tomorrow.
There it is.
There we go.
He's getting it all anyway.
He's got his share.
At the end.
All right.
I say they need a stimulation on their wheel part that says,
since we already have money,
we're going to donate a lot of this to this,
this, this, and this, whatever I pick, of course.

Kay, you did you never dream you'd be a TV star, did you?

Well, I give a lot everywhere.
Yeah.
And I feed a lot of people.
Mm-hmm.
Do you ever get tired of it?
Oh, yeah.
I have.
But you didn't give you,
you didn't stop.

I said, check out my kids.
Go to their houses.
You get all the mansions you want.
