And we're back.
It's Thursday.
Welcome back.
Welcome back, everybody.
I hope you have enjoyed your holiday weekend.
Hope we all remembered what the weekend was actually about.
Not that it was just a three-day weekend, but that we were honoring those that have paid the ultimate price for us to be able to sit here and, in our case, record this podcast and for you to sit there at home and listen to it.
So to all the families whose loved ones didn't make it back home, we thank you.
We love you.
And you're appreciated more than you'll ever know.
Amen.
That's right.
You know, those guys run two gunfire and most of us run away from it.
So, you know, without them, America wouldn't be near as great as it is.
So you are correct, sir.
But anyway, look, you're here in the duck call room.
That's YouTube.com slash duck call room, all one.
word.
All one word.
Duck call room.
If you're listening
on Apple or
Spotify, be sure
to leave us a
rating of
review, and
we're available
wherever you get
the rest of
your podcast.
So, without further
ado, I do have
something I want
to talk to sigh about.
And watch that.
Uh-oh.
Did you see
what they caught
in a pond
in Baton Rouge?
No, I didn't.
Uh-oh,
Johnny Dean.
The wildlife and fisheries.
What did they show it on?
You two?
No.
I mean,
it's been all over.
the news. But look, wildlife and fisheries
confirmed they caught
a red-bellied piranha
in a pond in Baton Rouge.
Wow. A red-bellied
piranha? And you're trying to tell us we've
never seen a Black Panther? Thank you, Johnny Deke.
They got the body. They got the body. All you boys were to
a Black Panther still ain't produced a body. They
got the body. Hey, they got
the body, boys. The body of proof. And the front of that body
is full of one thing.
Teeth.
Sharp, sharp teeth.
Now, how about that, though?
Now, how do you explain that?
Somebody, oh, the easiest way somebody had him as a pet and turned him loose.
And guess what?
Thumb in a pond.
Now, answer this for me, Martin, because you'll probably know.
An older gentleman that I used to live close to said that a hurricane came up from the Gulf
and somehow another brought piranhas.
Well, all kinds of fish.
but even sharks and landed in fresh water.
Sharknato?
Have you ever heard anything like that?
That's a movie on the sci-fi channel called Shark Nato.
Is it possible?
I would, I mean, anything's possible when it comes to nature,
but it doesn't sound very probable.
You know where I thought you was going with this?
Sharknato.
No, no, no.
Slapped him for me.
He's got a sunburn.
Please don't slap me.
No, no.
We went on vacation, okay, to the Bahamas.
I was with you.
He was with us.
All right.
was with us.
And look.
Johnny D.
Johnny D.
was sleeping on his new mattress.
No, no.
Look,
with a silver spoon and his Rolex.
Beep,
beep, beep.
While we were in a mansion in the Bahamas,
which one else got a silver spoon?
Hey, we was down there, okay,
and look,
there was a big rock over there,
okay, out in the middle of the ocean out there,
and we'd watch the ocean liners come in between the big rock and us.
Okay.
So I come home, okay,
been about three weeks, you know.
I go to practice my music.
with my voice coach, and he shows me a picture.
Is it a picture of him protesting?
No, no, no, no, no.
It's a picture of that stupid rock.
But here's the deal about it.
Okay.
All the water, ocean water, is gone.
I remember when this happened.
Okay, so I'm looking and I'm saying, wait a minute.
I told him out to Dave.
He's what.
I said, I was just there three weeks ago where you're,
Showed me the picture of.
This is true.
I said, hey, I watch ocean liners loaded with people come in between me and that stupid rock.
And I said, now I'm looking at people out there walking on dry ground picking up seashells for crying out loud.
I said, did this hit the newspaper's front page or anything?
Or was there anything said about it on the radios and everything down there?
And he said, no.
I said, you know, our media is terrible.
They report nothing, okay, except stupid stuff.
Sa, my question is this.
Where did it go?
Hey, look, here's what they said.
A hurricane come through, okay, and lifted billions of gallons of ocean water and took it away.
My question is, it's about 10 miles you could see dry ground.
Yeah.
Yeah, I was looking for, what is it, the tsunami or tsunami?
I prefer to look at it because, hey, all this water is gone, okay,
and when water like that disappears, usually here comes, here it's coming back.
Well, no, it didn't rush right back.
It just gently feel back up.
Had the back feel.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But how stupid is that?
That's crazy.
I don't know what we're talking about.
Oh, just a hurricane, the power of a storm.
It's like a storm surge.
Like if you was on the other side of the eye.
island, you was five foot underwater.
But since he was on that side of the island,
it was just dry ground far as you can see.
It was the same thing.
The other time, he showed me a picture.
And it was where the Mississippi River
runs into the Gulf of Mexico.
Mm-hmm.
Okay, and look, this is,
this is, and it's as far as you can see towards the sunset.
They took the picture right at sunset.
As far as you can see,
you got muddy Mississippi River water
on this side,
And it's like a thin line running out of sight.
And over here you got blue ocean water.
Okay.
And it went slam out of sight.
They wasn't mixing yet.
Yeah.
That brackish water?
Current.
The currents were going opposite each of them.
You could have actually threw on the left side of the boat.
I mean, put your boat right in the middle of the line,
threw over here and caught freshwater fish,
threw over here and caught saltwater fish.
Two for one.
But it's insane.
And I said same thing.
Same thing with that.
I said,
was this on the news?
Was this on the front page?
No.
That's because there was no piranhas.
Hey, media, you need to do your job.
Tighten up, media.
Hey, tell them like you,
tell them what you feel about it,
sir.
We all started with a piranha.
Now we're talking about the wonders that are water.
That's right.
I love it.
But if you don't understand what size is talking about,
I can tell you a good way to figure it out.
Google it.
Go on your river.
Oh.
On your local river, if it's got barge traffic, and just go sit there and wait on a barge.
Because before that barge gets to you, he's so heavy, he lifts the water right up under you.
And then when he gets even with you, it's rough.
And then when he goes past you, he sucks the water out from under you.
It's the craziest thing you've ever seen whenever you, if you're fishing and a barge comes by you.
Like, I had two of them last year that I passed on the Washtaw River, and I thought I was going to die on that second one,
because I didn't know he was there.
And I come around that corner on pad, and there he was.
And I said, oh, boy, this is going to be rough here.
Yeah.
Because I got in that barge waking.
But what is doing is it's pushing and pulling that water so he can get up the river.
And man, that thing, golly, he pushes a lot of water.
And I was like, well, this is it.
I said, I hope this life jacket works, boys, because I am.
Yeah.
I passed that tugger on a pad.
Okay.
They're pushing a barge, okay.
And about 90% of it is underwater.
Yeah, and this one was full of crushed concrete.
Okay.
Hey, you're talking about heavy, and it's called water displacement.
So once it's pushing like you said, there's going to be a big fall behind it.
Yeah, I think the physics term, is it Bernoulli?
The Bernoulli effect, Johnny D, check that.
Bernoulli.
Oh, I've never heard that.
B-E-R-E-O-U-L-L-I.
Bernouley's principle.
Is that the one with?
We're about to find out what? Bernoulli.
Is he gas?
Which one is?
Is he water gas?
Bernoulli's hierarchy of need.
Of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in static pressure.
Well, we're getting there.
But maybe it's Archimedes that did that.
I don't know.
It's the one that threw the thing, a gold in the bathtub and watch the water rise and all that.
Talking about density and displacement.
Well, if gold when it's in water, goes to the bottom.
We've gone.
It's weight.
So have you ever pan for gold?
Gold.
That's why you find gold at the bottom of creeks.
So do rocks.
Well, I know, but hey, gold's heavier than rocks, J.D.
You float probably, huh?
Huh?
Well.
Gobwin's a floater.
Godwin is a floater.
Some people float are good.
No, I think.
You sink?
Yeah, I think.
Yeah, I'm a sinker.
I'm a sinker.
I'm a sinker.
I'm a sinker.
How in the world do you do that?
The only place I'd float in saltwater.
Yeah.
Salt water ain't going to let you sink.
Oh, it'll let you
It's just a lot harder
But now, God was like an island out there in saltwater
Sign all your years
Have you ever pan for gold
Or know anybody that asked
No, I wish
Okay, I wish when I lived in Alabama
Because they tell you
The gold rush of Alabama
Gold rush.
No, no, I'm serious
Where I lived, okay, where I fished
And paint rock river
Okay, they've got what they call
Black Sand
Mm-hmm
well, wherever you find black sand, you also find gold.
That's true.
I watch enough gold fever.
Okay.
No, no, no.
Look, and everywhere I fish down now on that stupid river was black sand everywhere.
I got the gold right here.
So I said, yeah, why didn't you plan for gold while you was living there, you idiot?
You was too busy feeding them squirrel strawberries.
Well, hey, hey, I know it.
Hey.
Oh, that's a pedible.
Well, the good news, size, the gold rush in Alabama ended in 1849.
Which was when you were still a child.
It's still gold in there, though.
Trust me, son.
It's still in there.
Do you still think there's gold in Alabama?
Oh, yeah, that didn't get it off.
Paint Rock River, I'm telling you, for those that live in Alabama,
the paint.
It's black sand all over the Black Rock River.
Go find you some gold, boys.
Paint Rock River, Gold, in Alabama.
I'm going to find out.
Hey, look, why are you finding that out?
Let's find some gold here in these commercial base.
Let's take our first break.
We'll be right back after this.
Gold, boys.
I got the gold, boys.
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 Tritels beef makes such a good product, baby.
Ain't it good?
It's so good.
Our friend, Sao 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 Tritails beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way.
Tritails 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 ribbons 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 Tritails 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.
Johnny, what's wrong with you today?
You're off a quiet.
Did Warren got you shook?
No.
Oh, I was just curious.
He got a sunburn.
No, this sunburn's got me like, bleh.
Oh, he just...
But I'm also super confused on what in the world he keeps talking about.
How did you get sunburn?
Well, it was Memorial Day.
And?
So, was that a swimming pool for...
Oh, I thought he was going to tell me he worked outside.
I did do that, too.
No.
I trimmed some bushes up.
He trimmed with his battery-powered equipment.
Johnny D. is off of two cycle motors all together.
I'm on that battery-powered yard equipment.
Yeah, he's on the battery bag.
He's Elon muskin it, boys.
It's nice.
You plug it in, you throw it on there, and it just goes.
He's taking the ego power to the moon, boys.
It's just going to...
Your wheat eaters is...
He's on a pirate trip.
I love it.
No, but yeah, then I was teaching my son to dive in the swimming pool of the five-year-old,
and I apparently stayed in the pool too long.
I did not notice.
That flesh ain't seen sunlight since September.
Yeah, well, I mean...
I normally am under an umbrella, so...
I mean, you look like a...
Did your feet get sunburned or did you have your socks home?
Well, hey, you look like a big cotton ball.
Why?
Then you got out in the sun.
Don't move, Jay, D.
I mean, I'm pretty red.
It doesn't hurt that bad, but you know that feeling you get after.
Sai, check it out.
Field test it, Sire.
He already did about three times before we started.
I started while you had to pop it.
If you put your tea glass on there, he'd melt all your eyes.
That's a problem.
It's that fever feeling you got whenever you're sunburn.
That's what I'm feeling today.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's what you put on it, J.D.
Ice?
Yeah.
No, I prefer that green aloevara stuff.
It makes you about 20 degrees.
That's the...
Just put some...
I don't like peanut.
Just put some peanut butter on it.
You won't know what's bad.
That's somewhere when you got on your arm.
Multiply that times five, and that was side day one in the Bahamas.
Oh, yeah.
On his legs.
On his legs.
And then I had that green stuff.
He was talking about I left just a big, thick film of it on my leg.
Yeah, you put that aloe on him and it starts bubbling.
He couldn't leave the room.
He couldn't leave the room.
I'm serious, I had a half inch deep.
Okay.
You were just bathing in it?
Oh, hey, because I was burnt.
I need to.
I mean, I was burnt.
So, look, we just played Domino's in Si's room.
Everybody would come to Sy's room and play Domino's.
Yeah, one in the morning.
Side sleep all day.
The rest of us go out all day and be tired.
And, Sive, like, y'all ready to play Domino?
Yeah, let's go, boys.
I was burnt legs and Stone was sick of the dog.
He got some bug down there.
Yeah.
So, man, Stone, three,
spent three days.
Stone thought he was going to die.
We were in the house.
Okay.
We didn't get out of that.
And the water receded.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, no.
In the water.
A couple of weeks after we got on.
That was later, Johnny D.
Pay attention.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We were there right before the hurricane here.
I don't remember.
It's been, how long been five years ago?
Probably six.
Five or six years.
What hurricane was it?
That was amazing.
I don't remember, but it ripped through them.
No, no.
That was amazing to see.
Okay.
Because I'm looking.
and when I say...
Your sunburn?
No, no.
Yes, it was.
The ocean disappeared.
Okay?
I'm talking about...
Now for my next trick.
Billions of gallons of salt water.
Gone.
Okay.
Gone.
Just gone.
Gone.
Forever.
And all of them poor spiny lobsters we couldn't catch.
It was out there high and dry.
Somebody just picking them off one bog.
There you go.
Picking them up.
Hey, we've done that with Crawfee.
That is a good.
That is a good.
Wow.
What's that?
Picked them up.
Oh, yeah.
Hey, I mean, hey.
Were they migrating across the street?
Yeah.
No, yeah.
It was, uh, I've been there on that with a dicknet.
It was breeding season, okay?
And there was literally the thing dried up, okay?
And I mean, we picked, what, number three watchtubs, slam full.
Yeah, when we had that late flood.
You pick it up five and six at a time.
They all hooked together with their claws.
When we had that late flood, was it two or three years ago?
I was driving out there.
through that rice country and I saw all these white birds and I was like what are they doing out there
just all together. They were descending and there was a trail of crawfish hidden for water.
They were just there like uh-oh we got caught with our britches down and they just walk it and you get
up there and it looks like I don't know like some kind of migrant caravan but it's all crawfish
and we just went out there picked us up about 75 pounds of them right off the ground and then we ate
them but then birds is what clued us in on them white birds them old great eagrots and
cattle eaggards were out there just feasting.
When the water goes down, they're good, clean.
Over on field land, starts drying out and go down, and it gets down to just shallow water and muck.
Hey, them egrets, they come from everywhere.
How do they know?
They know, though.
How do they know?
Phil's been over there when the water is just starting to ease over the levee.
When it's coming up and watch.
millions of crawfish come across that levy coming in his lake.
Safe spot.
Millions, brother.
Millions.
Trying to find them.
Oh, yeah.
Saw that whole levee would be solid crawfish.
Yeah.
You think it was a million?
Oh, yeah.
More.
Probably three or four.
Yeah, I bet it was, too.
Yeah.
At least.
I've seen them cross like that.
Crawfish migrate.
Oh, they do.
Speaking of that, I was telling the Stone and Josh down there about squirrel hunting
and hunting migrating squirrels.
Well, they all laugh at it, okay?
So I didn't understand what they had life so much,
but either way, they're like,
then when I got with Dr. Dean
who went to his place and was telling him, you know,
Stone was telling him.
He said, oh, I laughed at him,
and talking about them migrated squirrels.
Well, Stone had Googled it.
I'm currently.
Okay, and look, you're going to find out
that they migrated and swam across the Mississippi River
and thousands, literally thousands,
drowned.
Of squirrels?
Squirrels.
And they said,
now, I'm talking about what,
they googled,
billions.
They said billions of squirrels migrated.
They were in that saltwater
over in Bahamas.
Oh, no, hey, it's unreal.
Stone, you know,
that's what I told Stone and Josh.
I said, now I understand why y'all was laughing.
Y'all thought I was BSing.
Well, I wonder where they're,
They got that idea from.
It's only 5% true.
It's 95% true, boys.
5% to kick it up a little.
I will say, some of your tall tales have,
I'm convinced that you really know how to use a computer
and you're letting us on and you research this stuff to tell good stuff.
There's a lot of, yeah.
I'm convinced because there ain't no way you're a dead gum encyclopedia.
But you seem to be.
Well, no, no, you've got to take it up here, boys.
I've 73 years old.
of stuff I've seen a lot of things.
Yeah, but I don't remember what happened
last week. I don't know why do you remember
the great squirrel migration of 1974?
Hey, no, no, here's the reason I remember.
This is amazing.
I had one to the store and just bought a brand new
22. They were on smooth out of bullets.
No, no, no, look, a 22 marlin.
Okay. Well, hey, Phil had called me and said,
hey, look, I found him. He said,
meet me up here, you know, at this place
in Arkansas. I said, okay, I'll be
at daylight, before day light.
Yeah.
So I come walking up and he said,
what kind of guns that you got?
I said, a new 22.
He said, son, I tell
you, these are migrating squirrels.
He said, you ain't no kill nothing with that
22 rival. He said, they don't
never stop. And I said, oh, don't worry
about me. I'm going to get a few anyway.
So I thought he was lying
about they don't ever stop.
Look.
They don't stop?
No, no, look. Daylight broke, okay, and I'm looking,
you know and just through the top of the tree just did you hit any of them about a hundred yards wide okay
they just they never stopped well i just said well hey you're going to have to shoot them running so
poured a cold to them pow pow pow wump there's one okay
pow pow pow wow there's another y'all so look i come up there i had i had what 10 two over the limit
you know phil he took a browning 16 gauge and i'm not going to tell you how mean
He had about five boxes of shells, and he shot it all.
That's all you need to know, isn't it?
Statue limitations ran out.
He had eight.
He shot five boxes of shells is what he shot.
I'm not going to tell you what he killed.
So he got his eight.
He got his eight.
He got eight for sure.
That's good.
But he was shocked.
He said, I can't believe you actually kill that many of these migrating squirrels.
Were they cat squirrels or fox squirrels?
Both.
Both?
Yeah.
That is wild.
That's interesting.
Well, let's migrate into our next break while we think about.
Here we go.
Migrating squirrel.
This is like a whole new world that I'm reading about.
Via the great squirrel migration of 1968.
There's literally a paper on it.
Was it 68?
Really?
There was the great squirrel migration of 1960.
There is a paper on it.
And they were contacted by the greatest place I've ever heard of.
The Smithsonian Institute actually had a center for short-lived phenomena.
What were they running from?
The squirrels?
Yeah.
They were running two food.
So they were out.
That's it.
They were out of food.
No, no.
And they was out of food.
All the squirrels got together and had a squirrel meeting and said, we got to go.
We got to move.
Follow me, boys.
Do not slow down.
Hey, don't stop.
Baring trees.
But there is, well, so there was a center for short-lived phenomena.
Don't fear the 22.
Is it phenomenon?
Phenomena.
That's more than one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Phenomenon.
So anytime there's a.
a phenomena, the center for short-lived
phenomena.
Phenomenal.
Anytime there's a phenomenon.
Phenomenon.
Phnomon.
There's a phenomenon.
There's a phenomenon.
Here's the deal with the center for short-lived phenomena.
That's in our tongues, Mr. Boys.
It was only around for seven years.
I love the philippa-lomina.
So it was short-lived as well.
It was short-lived too.
They figured out.
It was short-lived phenomenon.
So they were headed south looking for food.
Yep.
They talked to the ducks.
They got with them Woody's and said,
what do y'all do when you get hungry?
What do you do?
And they say,
Head South, boy.
Hey.
They got food down.
Because, look, so the reason we figured out that they were migrating is because
there was like, people kept hitting them in the highway.
They're like, what's up with all the dead squirrels?
Now, see, if they would ban squirrels, we could have known.
Yeah.
All they had to do with band them.
That's why you can't kill many squirrels nowadays.
Okay.
They all died during the migration.
They all ran into size Marlon 22.
That's right.
Boy, Bayow, Baye.
Is that still the same one you got now?
Is that that Marlin I fixed?
Yep.
Johnny D.
I'm learning all about squirrel.
I need to tell you something, Johnny D.
That's the one I dropped and broke the stupid, uh, pen.
Stock on.
There's video.
They got, no, I ain't got video from 68.
Johnny D.
I gave Cy those two pistols that didn't have pins in them.
Do they work?
They got pins.
They got pins in them.
He's, they've been shooting everything in the backyard.
No, I ain't shot him yet because I ain't been to the store to get me 45
Calibular.
Bullets.
But he has held it at some way.
Because, hey, I've been told, Stone said he went to TP the other day.
Can't get enough?
Chefs a bear.
Oh, yeah.
You know, I can get them for you?
Yeah.
Evil eye.
Oh, that's right.
I call Stone.
I don't told Martin to get me some.
He ain't come to you.
I met evil.
Martin can get it.
No, I can't get them.
Well, hey, he's got some people that he knows.
Here's what I tell you.
In our world, we've been blessed and fortunate that companies provide us with ammo to shoot.
Yeah.
Right now we're on the bottom of the list because then boxes turn into 20, 30 and $40 bill.
They don't, it ain't doing them no good if we're shooting them right now.
So we, you know, now come October we'll probably move back up on that list a little bit.
But for right now, we're at the bottom of that list because they're trying to make money.
You don't need them.
And I don't blame them.
I would too.
If I could sell every duck call we had right now as fast, you could get it on the shelf and get it gone.
I'd do it too.
Oh, yeah.
Sell them all.
Get rid of them.
That's good.
It's good for...
There's gold in them calls.
There's gold in them calls, boy.
Yeah.
Huh?
So I did watch a good to bad and ugly
the other night.
Oh, yeah, I saw it on TV.
You did you?
Yeah, that's good.
The most amazing thing about that movie
is that the guy that making all the sound effects
is doing it with a guitar and his mouth.
His name was John Godwin.
No, no.
No.
You ought to watch this guy to do it.
Stone done it on his phone
showed me.
But the best part of the movie
is when he lets you know
what kind of men
are in this world.
There's only two types of men.
Do you remember that, sign?
Nope.
Those with loaded guns
and those who dig.
Dig.
He tossed that shovel to Tucco.
He said, dig.
Yeah, then he said,
get up her, too, go.
Come on.
He says,
What Tucco says?
How about I do the cutting from now on?
He's like, no.
No, I'm the cutter, boys.
I'm the cutter.
I'm the cutter.
That movie's four hours long.
Oh, you won't know it.
It is on TV.
In regulation, it's probably 3.10 or something.
Three hours and 58 minutes.
But it goes by quick.
I don't think that's quick.
That's a good show.
Have you not seen the good and bad and ugly?
I don't watch anything that's four hours long.
Oh, my goodness.
You've seen my attention span.
You go in and sit down and you're walking out.
You need to watch the first 45 minutes and the last 45 minutes.
That midsection gets a little long in there.
Yeah, break it up into three parts.
Them first 45 and that last 45 is worth watching.
When they blow that bridge up, that's good.
Whenever they go down there.
He takes that cigar out of his mouth and he lights that fuse.
He says, we better go.
As many movies.
as I've watched Clint Eastwood, okay, from early raw high days,
has Rowdy Yates, okay, I did not know my wife,
and I called her a liar when she said it.
She said, oh, do by the way, do you know?
And I said, no what?
She said, he's allergic to horses.
Eastwood is?
Yeah.
And I died laughing and I said, you're crazy woman.
He stays on the horse.
He's born on the horse.
Is that true, Johnny D?
One moment, please.
Cide.
Clint Eastwood.
When he comes and rides, has got cotton balls stuck up his nose, okay?
And I have to have an inhaler to breathe.
Okay, because he's an allergic to it.
Survey says.
Survey says he's allergic to it.
Clint Eastwood may be one of the greatest on-screen cowboys,
but what you don't know is that he has a horse allergy.
How does Sine know all this time?
I don't know, but they misnamed Google.
It should just be called Sigh.
Hey, sigh that.
Say that for me.
Despite having to be close to their presence, he had an allergy to the creatures.
Yeah.
It was reported in American film that Eastwood tried to limit his time around horses.
Well, he wouldn't ever really own them much, I don't guess.
He was around them, but, you know.
He rode them.
No, I know he rode them.
fire at them.
There's a lot of good truths, though, in all them Eastwood movies.
Yep.
Just like when he has that meeting with 10 bears about my word of life is true, so is my word
of death.
Yeah.
I'm here to have either with you.
Either with you.
I'm here to have either.
I can go either way you want to go with it.
And in the best line in a movie, they can still be used today.
He said, it's a shame.
Men can't honor each other and government has gotten in the way.
Yep.
I mean, they, they's talking about that back in.
Everybody thinks this is a new problem.
They discussing that back in whenever Outlawed Josie Wells was made.
In the 60s, yeah.
Yeah.
And he said it's a shame the government's in between all this.
Well.
Then they shook hands in blood.
And look, him and Timbers, they're good.
Blood brothers.
Good to go.
Like me and Martin.
And Eastwood told him and said, hey, I'll only take what I need to live just like the Comanche's.
Yep.
Yep.
Yeah.
That's incredible.
It's incredible that fight's been going on along.
No, no, because I looked at that because I've watched it and when I've, you know, fresh my mind.
I was thinking, how great would it have been we could have learned so much from each other.
Uh-huh.
As to the fighting.
Yep.
Amen.
But it's still going on today.
Oh, it is.
And everything's still in the way.
No, no.
Yeah.
Men are still in the way.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Can we all just get along?
Well, look, let's get on along.
Well, look, let's get on along to our next break.
We'll be back right after this.
And I got something to ask y'all.
Oh, okay.
All right.
Well, we're back.
Look, Philip, you said you had something you wanted to ask us.
Yes.
What's you got?
One of my favorite cowboys of all time, I know size got a bunch, is John Wayne.
Mm-hmm.
So I need to know how big John Wayne's feet were.
And that's just guess.
You're asking us.
What size shoe or birdie wear?
Yeah, what would you guess, I?
Johnny D. Look it up.
Oh, he's already there.
Okay.
I would say...
He was a big tall man, right?
He was 6'4.
Yeah, 6'4.
170 pounds.
Oh, he looked bigger.
But his shoe size is probably 12.
What do you say, Martin?
13.
Just because I'm 6'4.
I say size 7.
What is it?
Size 7?
Yeah.
Nine and a half?
Tiny feet. He had a tiny foot.
Yeah, tiny feet.
Some places say even it was smaller than that.
Okay, now it's the eight and a half.
Wayne wore a size eight and a half and had relatively small feet for his six foot four frame.
Well, but it makes sense if he was six four and 170 because you don't need big feet to support one.
You bump up around 270, you better have you some size 13s up under you.
Just trust me on that one.
Amen.
Now maybe mine started out as a size eight.
So he was like eight and a half?
Eight and a half.
Eight, eight and a half.
We're going to go with nine.
Nine.
Size nine.
Six, four.
I figured, you know, I know he was tall, but I'd have never guessed his weight at 170.
Okay, I found the official John Wayne message board.
Oh, good.
Let's go.
The internet has everything.
And there was a discussion back in July of 2003 on the Duke's shoe size.
Um, and they landed on an 11.
Okay.
That would make more sense.
So I was close.
And that's according to the John Wayne reference.
I was close with 12.
But what if he really did have tiny feet and was embarrassed?
And he just wore big shoes.
No.
Big the Duke.
No, not the Duke.
Duke didn't have no eight and a half.
Tell him, Cy.
He's up for, hey, no.
He was a man's man, boy.
Matter of fact, hey, I just watched the month of May, which was Duke month.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
All his great movies.
He had some good ones.
Yeah, and he had some good ones.
Okay.
I still think.
Him and Dean Martin.
You know who loves.
You know who loves him as old Randy Byers.
Oh, yeah.
He's got some memorabilia from.
No, no.
There's a lot of information on John Wayne on this website.
Well, of course there is.
John Martin was a, he was a legend, man.
No, no.
He was a legend, whatever you want, however you want to say that.
Him and Ben Johnson.
Oh, yeah, Ben Johnson.
played in a, in a,
lot of John Wayne.
Now, Ben Johnson was a real cowboy.
Hey, Ben Johnson was, he, uh,
he was a roping champion.
His dad was two-time roping champion,
Ben Johnson's dad,
and Ben Johnson was actually, he won it once.
He knows so.
But, hey, but hey, I went to the Ben Johnson Museum
in Oklahoma, which was cool.
That's awesome.
No, no, and I actually wore his 10-gallon
Stets and hat, the black one.
I love seeing Sye as a fan or something.
No, no, no, no.
Isn't that hilarious?
Every time you see it, it's the opposite.
Somebody's a fan of size.
He's waiting in line to see Ben Johnson.
No, no, and I put that hat on.
Museum.
And I'm serious.
I had chill bumps as big as marble on me just from wearing it.
You know, because I said he looks like, you know,
he don't look like he's acting.
Well, when I've read all the stuff,
in the museum, he wasn't active.
That's hilarious.
He was a real cowboy that actually worked on a one of the biggest ranges up there in Oklahoma.
But what is it about Westerns?
It's like when I was younger, my grandpa was sitting there watching Westerns, I couldn't stand it.
Like I was sitting there thinking, man, this is torture.
But the older I get, the more I like Westerns.
No, no, no.
I think that's just a phase.
Is that a phase?
Everybody goes through?
Think so.
Well, I had to get a little older for me.
With me.
That was my heroes of the day.
The hero's always been cowboys.
No, no, no.
That was the only thing to watch inside a thing.
It was always the good guy versus the bad guy, okay, and the good guy always won.
That's biblical.
They've got stupid.
No, no.
No, no.
Here's how bad.
No, no.
Here's how bad the world's gone.
They've got disclaimers on this stuff in front of,
like, Marshall Edition or Gunsmoke series.
This is not really the way it was.
They've got disclaimers.
Not the way it what was.
Huh?
The way.
They're saying it wasn't real.
You have to put a disclaimer on TV live?
Hey, I'm serious.
Like Bart said, since I've watched, me and Phil,
okay, we watched Marshall Dillon all time.
Okay.
There is so much good stuff.
on that, you know, yeah, it's, it's, uh, I don't even know how to,
or the words to say what's happening, but it's good versus evil.
Okay.
And look, that thing, that's relevant today because this still good versus evil.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
So nothing has changed.
No.
But it, but just, it was something about, uh, you got to,
a thing about
our great-great-grandfathers
you know come across this land
and covered wagons
and sell what we know as the
United States of America.
That's tough too.
You ain't kidding.
That was when a man was a man.
You had to prove it back then,
you couldn't sit on the couch and talk about it.
Yeah, we all a bunch of mice compared to them.
Oh, no, no, no.
So,
Bucch Cassidy and the Sundance kid.
Who played Sundance?
Paul Newman.
Paul Newman was Butch Cassidy, right?
Look it up.
He knows, don't mess with him on Westerns.
I love it.
Also, Ben Johnson is in the pro-rodeo hall.
Robert Redford?
No, no.
Paul Newman and Robert Redford, I think, starred in it to begin with.
What's the show?
Paul Newman.
Paul Newman was the Sundance kid.
Redford was the other guy.
Paul Newman was Butch Cassidy
and the Sundance kid was Robert Redford.
Okay.
Okay.
So I'm trying to think of...
I'm just reading here.
Ben Johnson had a movie with one of these guys.
I don't know if it was Robert Redford.
It may have been somebody else,
but he came walking out of the set,
and Ben Johnson said,
you don't look like a real cowboy.
He said, let's go back to the dressing room.
He gave him his big cowboy belt and everything else
and said, when you are playing the part of a cowboy,
what was his name, Sire?
Yeah.
It pains it.
You know what I'm talking about.
That was in the museum.
And I want to say, no, no, no, I want to say who.
He wrote a motorcycle on one of them shows a long time ago.
Big motorcycle guy.
Oh, Steve McQueen.
Yes.
That's who it was.
Good answer, Cy.
No, no, no, no.
The guy's incredible.
The man is incredible.
I can't even Google any of it.
I don't even have left out.
I'm going to file a petition to re-spell.
encyclopedia to be
E-N-S-I
C-L-P-E-D.
What movie was it with Ben Johnson?
Ben Johnson and Steve McQueen?
Yes, I want to know that movie.
Steve McQueen and Ben...
Steve McQueen was the star.
Yes.
Johnson.
Johnson was one of the secondary characters
and like he told me that...
The Get Away?
That must have been it.
But anyway, he comes out
and they're fixing to start filming
and Ben Johnson.
just a to hold it, guys.
He ain't no cowboy.
He's all, all hat, no cattle.
He's no, he ain't a cowboy.
He don't look it and it ain't right and it won't work.
So, hey, he's got his championship roping buckle on.
He said, here, put this on.
And then he grabbed another, I told him,
he said, hey, wardrobe, hand me that hat over there.
Oh, I love this.
That's behind the scene stuff right there.
That's incredible.
Well, I feel like we got to get.
give a shout out to the Ben Johnson Museum, whatever.
Oh, absolutely.
What is it?
So I tell me.
I wish I knew.
I actually bought a book.
I actually put a hat on that Ben Johnson for in some of the movies.
But the guy that runs it, okay, has a buffalo robe coat.
Hey, I'll send that picture to Johnny D.
What the tail still on it?
Yeah.
What?
Cody.
Cody is his name.
Cody.
And Paul Huska, Oklahoma?
Yeah.
Yes.
Yeah.
There's a big range up there.
I don't know what the name of it is,
but you ought to be horsewhip for not knowing it.
Okay?
Because it's true.
Hey, and I'm talking about like 20,000 cows on this range
that Ben Johnson actually worked on.
The Ben Johnson Cowboy Museum.
I got it.
I got their phone number and everything.
Okay.
I was looking for the side.
It's cool.
The great home of the world's greatest cowboys.
That's it.
Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
these people have no idea we're doing this too
wait hold on I gotta find where it's at
I found their website
Powell Huska and Pal Huska Oklahoma
it's right next to the Pioneer Woman's store
we're going we're taking around
we went there we ate
yeah yeah
and actually
now we're talking
you could have met her with us
yeah she come to my table and I'm actually met her
yeah now we're talking my language
I mean I don't watch a lot of Westerns
but I watch a lot of food network
Hey, that was the coolest thing to go to.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm in.
We're going to Paul Huska, gang.
Hey.
Oh, you need to go see the Ben Jocelyn Museum.
Because, hey, this guy played in the movies.
Okay.
But, hey, his real life, he was a real cowboy.
Saida went up in this redress for the park.
I rode that buffalo.
He wrote this buffalo.
I don't see me that.
I'm looking at it.
Texted to me right now.
I went in their dress for the parks.
Oh, yeah.
No, no.
And then there's Philip in a fishing shirt.
The Ben Johnson Cowboy Museum.
Here's what, here was the craziest thing.
They were so fired up that I come there.
Oh, yeah.
To see this.
And you're, Johnny.
I didn't know you were this passionate about it.
Oh, no, no, no.
So, hey, Cowboys, no.
They were back.
He got a cyclopee.
This is fantastic, man.
The Ben Johnson Cowboy Museum.
This guy is a, is a, is a,
a roping champion.
I'm in on this museum.
This museum looks fun.
I'm also in on the Pioneer Woman's store.
I'm into Saib being this big of a fan of it.
Oh, no.
This is fantastic.
We got to go back to Oklahoma.
The only person I've ever seen Saia be this big a fan of is Jesus, and I love it.
No, no.
This is fantastic.
John David, get that air drop.
Get on that air drop bags.
Yeah, looking that airbag.
Hey, look on that air drop bag.
When you said that, I just, my mind went to creator.
Oh, I love it.
Went to what?
It's fantastic.
When he said, I'm, I'm, this guy's fan and Jesus, and my mind was creator.
Oh, my goodness gracious.
He's a creator and the savior of the world for crying out loud.
I've just never seen Sae be a fan of something other than Jesus.
This is.
I'm at the Ben Johnson Museum.
Where does that come?
Oh, are you talking about?
I'm at the Ben Johnson Museum.
I'm going to try.
That's Ben Johnson.
Yeah, do it.
Oh, that's fantastic.
Ben Johnson's hat, everybody.
That's it.
That he wore in the movies he played in.
Ah, I love it.
When I put it on, I just had chills all over me.
Why is Angels in the Outfield on the TV behind you in this picture?
He was in it.
Hey.
Ben Johnson was in Angels in the Outfield.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah, probably.
It was the only thing that made sense.
I don't know.
Now I'm confused.
because of Angels in the Outfield.
Oh, he played
King Kong.
What?
That was one of his first movies.
Ben Johnson was in.
When I tell you,
the day is the first day I heard
the name Ben Johnson.
This is it.
He was in Angels in the Outfield.
What I tell you?
Side knows everything, boys.
I like Ben Johnson.
Don't ever doubt it.
That ain't the 5% to sweeten it up either.
Oh, that's fantastic.
So let's take our last break.
We'll be back.
This dude was in like a thousand movies.
And we're back.
Welcome back.
And it's our favorite time of the week, arguably,
because now we're going to get in that hello at duckcallroom.com inbox.
Hello at duck callroom.com.
Johnny D.
What's in there?
Okay.
Martin, do you remember that video that dude tagged us in on Instagram?
I do.
Sa.
Will you please watch this?
It's a raccoon pop.
A raccoon what?
Piper.
Piper.
Look at all them raccoons.
Look how big at one is on his left shoulder.
No.
Anyway, some guy, I forget his name.
He tagged me and Martin on Instagram
and he's got
770-pound raccoons.
Eating hot dogs.
He's eating them hot dogs.
Let me find out this guy's name real quick
because I need to give him a shout out.
But I thought he said you needed to see this video.
That was from Hunter.
These are wild critters, people.
And hey, look in, they're bad to the bone.
And not only will they eat cat food, they'll eat a hot dog.
Yeah.
Eat a hot dog.
And then some, no, Brad, Brad from Western Kentucky just emailed us.
There's a new story of a lady, her dogs got attacked by a bear.
And it attacks a strong word.
I watched the video.
Sid, do you watch the video?
Yeah.
And then the lady goes and pushes the bear off the wall to save her dogs.
Don't mess with mama.
Black bear?
No.
No.
Brown bear.
It's brown.
Brown bear.
And I don't know if what I was looking at.
I don't know if that's a grizzly.
It's a big.
And there's two cubs with the bear.
Yeah.
And that the dogs are.
They're barking and hey, this woman runs in there and knocks the bear off of the wall.
Watch, watch, watch.
You know the first thing that comes to mine.
Don't mess with mama.
Watch, watch, watch.
Boom.
Whoa.
Get you some.
She form tackles that bear.
But that is a black bear.
It's brown.
I know it's brown, but that's black bear.
That's a cinnamon-colored black bear.
Oh, okay.
Then why can't we have a grizzly?
It ain't a grizzly.
Well, I face it.
You don't want to mess with that woman.
The woman or the bear?
Number one, she's crazy to begin with.
She'll sneak you too.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And she'll knock you over.
She ain't in a fair.
I got to be honest.
I got to be honest right now, though.
But you know the first thing coming in mind when I watch that video?
What is it?
Darwinism.
Survival of the fittest.
That woman ain't going to be with us long if she keeps doing stuff like that.
Well, she was fitter.
Let me just go ahead and tell you.
She had one fight in there.
She won the battle?
She got a long way to go in the war.
That's all I'm selling her right there.
She ain't going to be with us long.
She keeps doing stuff like that.
We'll see her on WWE's.
See, because I actually...
Sometimes you've got to let a food chain play out.
That was kind of my first thought.
love my dog.
No way.
But if there's a bear in my backyard and it's Dublin versus bear, I'm probably not going to join
in with the dog.
I call wildlife and fisher.
I really appreciate if y'all hurry up.
But that's about where that's going on.
Because I can't shoot him.
No.
Because we're in Louisiana.
We can't shoot black bears.
Now, that's the sick as he just found something out.
But sweet pea's too slick.
Sweet pea ain't going to get caught by no bear.
Plus that bear is going to have to come in your house to get sweet pea.
so it don't matter.
Sleepy might take out.
All right, look, if he comes in and out, he can have him.
You better believe I ain't going to go.
Most of the time, yeah, most time I don't get in the way of the food chain.
I'm like, you know what?
Yeah.
There you go.
It is what it is, boys.
That's why I made a rule when I started hunting.
I hunt nothing that will hunt me back.
Preach.
Oh, that's a good rule.
That's a good rule.
thumb to live by it right there.
Preach.
That's why I tell me, you want to go bear hunting?
No.
Not even with a switch.
And I said, what are you telling me?
I said, I made a rule a long time ago.
I don't hunt nothing that will hunt me back.
Yeah.
Every time I hear bear hunting, I can't help think Coach Shales at Westminster
New High School.
He used to tell me, he said, boy, you big enough go bear hunting with a switch.
But you was mean as a honey bun.
That's what he used to tell me.
He said, if you're mean, you really do something.
You know that?
I said, coach, I ain't mean.
I don't know what to tell you.
It ain't in me.
So I was mean.
He just didn't have enough weight behind it.
No, no, no.
I've got one thing to say about that.
Okay.
Beware of the gentle giant.
I just ain't mean.
They will turn on you, though.
If you back is in a corner.
Yeah, if you push them too far, they will turn on you.
But the smart people ain't going to push them too far.
And then somebody's going to get hurt.
My junior high football coach called me smile.
He was like, you're not.
You don't have.
Why are you smiling?
Were you as big then as you are now?
No, no.
I quit football and I was the smallest person on the team,
and then I showed back up to school next year,
and I was the biggest person on the basketball team.
It was a weird deal.
I was a tiny child.
You know, Jason shot up after high school.
Another shack.
He got in that fertile long.
Shaquille O'Neal?
No, I wasn't that good at basketball either.
He wasn't either.
Wait a minute.
Shaquille O'Neal?
Yeah.
No, he was pretty good.
So I love the shack.
The hack-a-shack.
No, look, hey, when you're seven-foot tall,
weigh 400 pounds
No, you ain't no good
You just push somebody away and dunk it
That's pretty good
I'd be good too
Yeah
It wasn't no talent than that
He'd lock you out of the way
And ducked the ball
Was Shaquille O'Neil on steroids?
Hey, if I'd have been a referee
When Shaquille O'Neill played
He'd have fouled out in the first three minutes
Shaquille if you're listening
I apologize
And this man is wrong
He was pushed five times
You're gone
Hey, Cy, you better be careful
You know Shaq's a cop now
Yeah
He'll arrest you
I like when they interviewed Shaq
after the game he said uh took my big boom boom me and my crew i like the commercial they got going on
right now with with the uh epic crust pizza for jack walks in and got a stupid wig on talking i'm the new
guy what are we talking about how did we get here hey we just it come on i will tell you this johnny d
size got every commercial that he's ever seen he's got them all memorized somehow i don't know how
Well, hey, if they're good and funny, I like them.
All right, boys, and hey, that was funny about, I'm the new guy.
He said, oh, I knew it was you.
He's eight foot tall, eight foot tall and 400 pounds.
And that's why he's not good at basketball?
He's going to get fouled out in the first three minutes.
He already told you.
That's back whenever basketball players were men.
No, that was wrestling.
That was wrestling.
That wasn't basketball.
Just knocked together.
That's neighborhood basketball.
That's poo-hard basketball.
He'll go lay on the ground next to LeBron James and cry because he got hurt.
When you have to get on your tiptoes to dunk it, you know, big deal, you know, for crying out loud.
And Andre the Giant was a terrible wrestler.
Negative, sir.
Hold on now.
Of course he would.
So you just don't like oversized human beings.
Well, I'm just saying, hey.
So I've been a little man this whole life.
He's always fighting for him, son.
Yeah.
He always fighting for that little man.
Look, the underdog was the underdog.
Hey, Sight, look, if you wasn't crazy,
you wouldn't have been no good on Duck Dynasty.
What now?
There you go.
Well, no, no, look, here's the thing about that most people don't understand.
Tell us.
Crazy is a lot of fun, okay?
I don't want to be normal, okay?
No more is boring.
Don't worry, you passed that a flying color.
He said, I tried being normal for 30 seconds, and I didn't like it.
I didn't like it.
When did you try and be normal?
for 30 seconds, a long time ago.
Worst half a minute of his life.
That's where I gave it up, boys.
Oh, what else you got, Sean?
We're up against time.
What else you got?
Well, we got the answer for the M&M question.
Which one has more chocolate?
What is it?
We got different answers from people that tried it.
But the one man sent a video, Simon sent a video.
It's clearly the peanut M&M has more chocolate.
If you take three peanut M&Ms and shave the chocolate off of them,
there is more chocolate there than three standard M&M's.
Ooh.
What do you think?
According to his research.
Wrong.
He sent a video.
Wrong.
I think they're the same.
Let's use common sense here.
Now, Caleb from Plainview, Arkansas.
What's he saying?
He listens to the podcast while he's at the bathroom.
That's what he says.
Well, I hope everything turns out.
you, Caleb.
If you're listening
right now, Caleb.
Now the whole world
knows what you're doing.
I hope this turns out well.
That's so weird.
It also takes them an hour
to get out of the bathroom these days.
So he
melted.
He claims to have melted down,
actually melted of them.
In the bathroom.
And believe it or not,
they both have the same amount of chocolate.
But no video was provided
from Plainview, Arkansas.
Rome.
Simon provided video.
I don't know.
where Simon's from.
Here's what you need to do.
Video ain't made it to Arkansas yet.
Go find a PhD.
Go find a PhD.
He's got a degree
in chocolate.
Doesn't exist.
Oh yeah, it does.
We got chocolate PhDs.
Ain't no doubt about it.
Food science.
Right?
And what you do is, hey,
you got a peanut.
You got it coated with chocolate.
Then you got the regular
chocolate M&M.
It ain't coated.
It's solid chocolate from coating to the middle.
And if you melt them and weigh them, hey, the solid chocolate M&M is going to win.
Johnny, let's get the lady from Paul Husky.
I don't know.
What does that happen?
No idea.
Where's that Bible verse that?
I've been trying to Google Cowboy Bible Verses, you know, for Ben Johnson Day.
My hero.
My hero.
Bading Cowboys
And I don't really have a great one
To go along with being a cowboy
There's just not a lot of Bible verses about cowboys
So if you have one
Let us know
A good Bible verse cowboy
Ben Johnson
And we'll read it on the next one
But I did find Psalms 27
So chapter 20 verse 7
Some boast in chariots and some in horses
But we will boast in the name of the Lord our God
Amen
That's a good song
Amen
So yeah
Hey we'll boast
Chariats or horses
Boys
We don't need chariots or horses
We don't do any one of them
We go with Lord
Thank you
Amen
And we'll see y'all next Tuesday
Right here in the duck calling
We're out
Bye bang
Out
