Welcome back to the Duck Call Room.
Well, I mean, we got a new coat of paint and we're not.
How do y'all like our new setup we got here?
It kind of makes me feel like, whoa, that's good.
And I want to live.
I feel like I'm on the view.
I'm leaving.
He's leaving.
If this is the view, I'm out with.
Yeah, I don't think the view shares our view on much of anything.
No, that's true.
Except for maybe breathing.
but, you know, that's neither here nor there.
No, we are the traveling road show right now.
By road, I mean warehouse, we just go from podcast that to podcast that,
and we crash everybody's while ours is being redone.
I'm just trying to get comfortable, but I do have this pillow.
Well, here you go for him.
But it's going to get real nice when they finish.
It will be nice.
Once our floor quits leaking water and this overwhelming smell of mildew that y'all can't
smell at home leaves.
But we sure can.
It'll be fine.
But, you know, thanks, Sadie, thank you for letting us crash your party or your space.
I assume you know we're in here.
You may not.
I'm also very safe to assume that you're not going to watch this.
So it doesn't matter.
Thanking her is doing nothing right now because she is not listening.
It makes me feel better.
Johnny D, watch your leg.
Yeah, we're in these weird couch and I just got told to put my leg there.
Yeah, Johnny D, watch your legs.
Watch your legs.
We do have.
I think we should talk about important stuff.
in here? What, like deep?
Like deep? No, that's not us, man.
Girl problems and stuff.
Coffee talk.
No, that's not us.
You want everybody in here to get to crying?
Like, we...
Yeah, well, it's just... This is such a serious room
because Sadie does such a good job.
Yeah.
You talk about if skittles or peeps are better skittles, obviously.
Yeah, but I think we should dance with the one that brought us.
I don't think we should come in here and conform to our environments.
Our IQ, our combined IQ went up a few points when we walked in here.
here. Well, so what is it about women in the color white? It is beautiful in here. It's so bright.
Yeah. We didn't have a plant on here. I can't see anything. Yeah, it's so bright. It's so bright. But maybe
that's what they're into. I can appreciate it. It's what my wife did to our house. She said it's too
dark in here and everything's bright now. Yeah. I feel like if we took a nap on this couch that you'd
wake up and think you might accidentally gone to heaven. I guess you purposefully went to
heaven but you might have accidentally died in your sleep kind of gives me the feeling of like all
them straightjacket scenes you see a movie this is the room people wake up in when they can't move
anymore because they've done something weird one flew over the cuckoo nats yeah there you go
but is that a real movie yeah absolutely oh man I tell you what happens though that W sauce
pops up in here though yeah we bring it boom everywhere we go now we're taking it with us now
If we open that and start eating in the air,
Sadie's going to kill all of us.
If we get it on this couch, we are in trouble.
But, uh, look, you know, Debbie sauce,
our friends are,
they sent me this sweet shirt, by the way.
How about that?
But they got breakfast sauce now.
Like you pour on your eggs and sausage
and I'm just telling you right now,
look, they're getting you full service now.
We're getting away from just dinner.
We go into breakfast.
We go on everything.
Why is breakfast so delicious?
Full menu.
I don't know,
but my favorite time to eat breakfast is,
like 8 p.m. Am I the only one there? I love breakfast for dinner. I really don't eat breakfast a lot,
but I do like breakfast. The best time to eat breakfast is 11 p.m.
No. I say I'm not up at 11 p.m. currently. Between 7 and 9. Yeah.
I agree. P.m.
Biscuits and gravy for dinner is unbelievable.
A couple of egg, over easy with toast, jelly. I'm over a few. Okay, and maybe hash browns on the side.
Our good sausage, real good sausage.
Oh.
Hot Jimmy Dean sausage.
Oh, come on now.
Preach it.
The problem is we're recording this in the morning and we're talking about breakfast.
So now I do want to go eat breakfast.
I will pass three waffle houses when I leave here on my way back to work.
So I might stop.
I would probably, if I done that, I would probably.
But you could see three.
It can, I mean, you can go.
Two eggs over easy, please.
I passed one waffle house on the way.
here and I'll pass a different two
Waffle Houses. Luttered toast
with grape jelly.
Okay. Great. I'm just listening.
With real good
Jimmy Dean hot sausage on the side.
You're going to have to bring at yourself because that
sauce they got a Waffle House ain't Jimmy Dien.
Okay. But it ain't bad.
It's Johnny Blue or something. I don't know what it is.
No, it ain't bad, but.
Triple order a hash brown, scattered, smothered,
and covered.
Yo, big dog.
Praise be.
Yeah.
Throw two of them runny eggs on top of it and just put it all in a bowl and let's call it good.
Oh, man.
But, okay, we're, we've, yeah, this, I guarantee you Waffle House has never been discussed in this room.
Oh, that reminds.
100%.
But it has been discussed in the other room.
Yeah.
That reminds me.
I was in South Carolina, I think, doing an event.
And we ordered BLT.
From Waffle House?
No, no.
Room service.
From room service.
We ordered BLT.
Well, I'm thinking, okay, real good bacon, y'old biting into it, and I'm ready for,
so I bite it into this BLT.
Oh, boy.
And something foreign is in my, I just, I said, whoa, spit it out.
They had put a stupid fried egg in this BLT.
Have you ever heard of that?
Have you ever heard of that?
Time out, though.
Like, I, okay, but where's the problem?
I mean, I get it's unexpected.
Because my mouth was not ready for this.
I was thinking bacon, lettuce, and tomato.
So after 75 years of survival on eating anything that could come by,
man, there's an egg on your sandwich and we got a deal breaker.
Yeah, but I just, it was just, no.
It was a shocked, it was a shock.
Was it a runny egg?
He just spit it out like projectile, fom.
Yeah.
And I thought, what.
And then there's Phil, scooping it up to bring it back home.
No, but I did eat it.
I knew it was on there after he spit it out.
I was like, I said, I said, did you eat the sandwich?
I did.
Did he?
Just runt this whole meal.
No, he wouldn't eat it.
After that, I had to call and tell him, take the egg off.
Make me two more and forget the egg.
So you couldn't just like, build the egg off and send it to the side?
It really is just, you know, I would be, I admit it was in need of anger management.
It actually angered me.
Over an egg.
I know.
Over the incredible edible egg.
Well, and because we got back from an event and you were tired and you were hungry and you were ready for a BLT.
And it just, you know, it's one of the things.
It wasn't what I was expecting.
Once you get your mind set on something, you know what I mean?
So you're one of those people like if you order it with no tomatoes and they put tomatoes, you have to send it back.
You can't just peel the tomato off.
You know, very seldom do I get upset about something like that, but with food, yeah, that's upsetting to me.
If you're hungry, that's hungry.
If you got one thing in your mind and then there's something else, no.
You won't know how you end up as skinny a sigh.
You send back food when that's the problem.
You want to how you end up like me and John David, you just eat that.
You're like, you consider the egg a happy accident.
My daughter was in this weekend because she does have some woman's event.
Trace the game in town.
She said,
you know,
my son is just,
my oldest son is just like his grandpa.
Yeah.
God bless it.
He's on a diet.
Brady's on a diet to gain weight.
Yeah.
Okay.
That sounds awesome.
I would be really good at that diet.
Yeah,
I've never had the bulk,
so to speak.
I would be so good at the gaining weight diet.
Oh, man.
Oh, my goodness.
Where do I?
signed up for that.
Yeah, well, I think you have to be on the other end of the spectrum.
So the egg just threw it all off.
Oh, no.
But I refuse to send food back.
Like, if you bring it to me.
Well, I mentioned to say that.
Most of the time, if you cook it, you know, like I said, okay, I want it medium plus.
And it's dry it out.
You know, they made it medium or well, well, well, well done.
You know, it tastes like a boot.
Yeah.
Well, then I just, hey, wait a minute.
You don't work too far.
There's only one thing that's a deal breaker for me,
and that's if I'm like, no mayonnaise and they slap it all over.
I'm like, no, I get that crap out of here.
But don't bring me another one.
I'm good.
I'll just eat somewhere else.
You don't want to risk it.
Yeah, I'm out.
Yeah, I know, I'm out.
I sent some food back to a restaurant,
and 30 minutes later, when I got back to my office,
I was sick for two days.
I'm just curious on what would make Phil send something back.
Right.
No.
I'll tell you what it was.
For fast, effective relief.
It was onions because I always, I don't want any kind of onions because it gives me heartburn.
So I just start saying, hey, no onions.
I'm allergic to onions.
Don't put iron onions on them on.
I'm allergic.
So look, they put so many onions in my food.
I sent it back.
They sent it back.
And then I guess I probably ate some.
A bourbon street steak.
It was something like that, but it was chicken, like a chicken.
You know what I mean?
Like a bourbon chicken.
What are you talking about?
Martin.
I'm just talking about off Talladega nights where Ricky Bobby's dad
gets all been out of shape about the onions on his bourbon steak.
I like what Si said.
Once you have your mindset on something, food or whatever.
Now here's, I will, in defense of that, though,
the first thing I do when somebody gives me food,
if it's in a sandwich form, I'd peak.
I give it a little.
status check.
You went in blind, so you're going to have to own part of that.
Trusting, too trusting.
Yeah.
You should have let me take the first bite out of mine.
Or just next time, maybe take the bread and kind of go, oh, what's in there?
No, no, I just, it was just, it shocked me.
What would shock me was the tomato.
Yeah, get rid of that.
Get rid of that and put more eggs on that.
I'm more of a B-L-E kind of guy.
You can get rid of that T.
I'm just a B-E-C, bacon, egg.
chicken cheese, baby.
You can tear it apart and eat it for breakfast.
Oh, please.
But my brother, my older brother used to call.
I'd be over my dad's house years and years ago before he passed away.
And I would be over there and my older brother would call and say, look, I'm going
through the chicken house.
Do you, what do you want, you know?
And so we would say what we wanted and we'd tell the food we wanted to give our order to
him.
And 30 minutes, 45 minutes go by, he never shows up.
He never showed up.
He wasn't even at the chicken house.
and we had plates out with drinks ready he's a no show when you said that i'm pict i'm pictured
your your brother walking out of his house and going to his chicken yeah what's the chicken house
what is a chicken house churches papas oh yeah oh yeah i was looking i was thinking back
the form day and i said well what are you talking about what do you want yeah i thought the chicken house
was some local place i thought i didn't want to be too specific but after being here for 30
Seven years, I figured I heard it just about everything around.
He said he's getting young fried.
A chicken house.
Whoa, here.
That's pretty good.
He won't steal chickens for him, gather eggs.
Fresh chicken.
Fluck it.
Yeah.
Fry it up.
Chicken house.
But he never showed up with the food.
And there's nothing worse than thinking you're fixing to get some good food and not getting it.
And a shocking turn of events, we spent the first 12 minutes talking about food.
So let's take a break and we'll be back right after this.
Now I'm hungry.
He'll went to London.
All right.
Look, springtime is here.
It's warming up.
what that means? That means more outside cook 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,
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 Triedale's beef, we skipped the grocery store.
and do it a different way.
Triedails 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 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 tribeef.com slash.
Don't.
Support ranch families and eat some dang good steak.
Well, we're back.
Phil.
I've got to do something about it.
It's so bright.
It's so bright.
Sadie has a radiance about her.
It shines into your eyeballs.
It is bright in here.
So I'm not trying to be Phil Robertson, but wearing sunglasses inside, but I am going to wear them in here.
Okay.
Hey, you just got back from somewhere.
Where are you and your wife been?
We went to London to visit my son, Bryson, who's in the Air Force.
London, baby.
Well, was you impressed?
I was.
The people are very friendly, very pleasant.
It's clean.
I loved it.
We had a great time.
We went and toured and saw everything in castles and Buckingham Palace,
and we met a lot of cool people.
But the food, not so much.
Just bland.
You don't.
Chips are good.
I did eat fishing chips four or five times.
Because I spent 12 and a half years.
They still don't put no Tonys on it.
No, I had to bring my own Tonys.
I was packing Tony's.
I spent 12 and five years overseas, okay, in Germany mostly.
And everybody was all in time.
you need to go to England.
And I said, why would I want to go to England
that y'all always come back and you always say
what a horrible time you had there.
There are people.
I'm serious.
And the main thing was, was hey, the food was terrible.
It was bland.
That's true, though.
It was bland.
You know, they don't put salt and pepper on anything.
In their defense, though, if you don't know
about salt and pepper, you don't know what you don't know.
Now, what I don't understand the most about it is.
why is ice like a currency over there?
It's like a little gold bar.
I'm like, what y'all got against a cold?
There wasn't a bunch of ice.
Oh, no, that's the same thing.
And you asked for ice and they bring you a cube.
I'm like, a cube.
Does somebody sit down there whittling that thing or what?
That's not Germany.
The first time I said, I, you know, hey, look, I want a glass of ice.
And they come out, it's one cube in a glass.
I said, no, no, no, no, you don't understand.
I want a big piece of ice.
A big glass full of ice.
I like what I'm drinking tea or whatever.
I like it.
Cold, cold.
I know we have some listeners from across the pond.
What does y'all's deal with ice?
It's the same thing in Italy.
When I was there, no ice.
No ice.
Anywhere.
No, I got it a couple times, but we went to a lot of cafes,
drink a lot of coffee,
and there were some really cool places that Bryson took us to.
Did you go to a soccer game?
No, we didn't go to the soccer game.
But we saw the queen.
Horses are now the King's horses.
Did you drink a lot of hot tea?
Yeah, we drank tea, drank coffee.
It was good.
Hey, I will say this for that.
Some of their hot tea,
yeah.
You know, they put like stuff in it.
It's actually good.
My wife drinks.
I was shocked.
I'm a kid lasso on that one.
I don't drink hot beverages of any sort.
Well, no, no, my dad and mom got into that.
I don't think they're able to.
Did you have any of that water with bubbles in it, Philip?
I did.
I did.
You want you off guard?
I did.
I didn't like it.
I don't either.
I liked the way they talked and they loved my accent because they were like, say something else.
Say, oh, and they would say, you know, stuff.
Oh, poppycock.
Poppycock and sport.
One guy called me sport.
Cheeky fellow.
How you doing sport?
And mind the gap.
We rode the tube, the trains, the boats.
So we went punting.
You went, what?
Punting.
You kicked football?
Punting.
No, punting.
Punting.
What is punting?
Punting is where a guy gets in the back of the boat with a push pole and takes you through the rivers.
Oh, it's a trolling motor.
And it's called punting.
And you can't use any kind of trolling motor.
You can do that at the Monroe Zoo.
I got a kayak.
Not safely.
Yeah.
Good point.
That's the new one.
Punting.
Punting.
No, hey, you start with a Pee, but hey, it ain't punting.
It's paddling.
So what was your favorite thing you did in London?
Um, well, mostly hanging out with Bryson and me and Leach enjoyed that.
Uh, we went on the Air Force base and got to see a lot of the planes take off and land and do that sort of thing.
That was fun.
Buckingham Palace was really cool.
Uh, just the whole experience.
It was great.
It was great to get away for a week, you know, because it's hard for me to take time, but that, that was nice.
I enjoyed it.
Did you fly first class?
Hey.
Did you lay flat on the way over there?
Let me tell you something.
There was 10 of us on one.
Packed shoulder to shoulder for 10 hours.
Where's you fly from?
Adam Monroe, and we hubbed out through Dallas.
I was about to say, bro, Monroe ain't going direct to London.
Yeah, no, Monroe ain't going directly nowhere.
And it's going to be late most of the time.
Be late.
So you went Dallas all the way to London?
Yeah.
That's a long flight.
It was.
It was about 10 hours.
And so I watched a movie.
I listened to music and I read some stuff.
And I was like, here we go.
That's only three hours.
I mean, I was.
you're out of stuff to do
I was like seven more hours
full work day left
I was just moving in slow motion
you know
I was like when we went to Hawaii
yeah
was it a long ride
it was a long ride
oh yeah
about 14 hours
I was trying to get my hand
to sit somewhere
yeah
but we was in first class
so hey it was
this was one of the big plans
where you could actually
hit it and it will lay you down
you could go to sleep
Martin's right
when I go
A side's way different.
They're like, sir, what can we do for you?
And when me and Lisa went there, they were like, back of the plane.
I was like, where's row 75?
Yeah.
You know, this thing's huge.
We're the last ones on.
Where group are we in?
Yeah.
After the, after they say the numbers, they go through the alphabet.
So I don't know that because he's always the first one on the plane.
Yeah.
Well, when we all went to Scotland, yeah, they all sat up front.
Me and Gobbin, we got an exit room, you know.
Back in the bus.
Hey, at least you got an exit road.
Me and God was just shoulder to shoulder on an exit road there the whole time.
At least it's somebody you can lean against that wouldn't mind.
Yeah, no, we, it was, that country is wild.
I'll agree on the eating.
Like, we went over there and we ate it in an Italian restaurant every night for the most part,
which is immigrants had opened one and it was really good.
Them Italians know how to slang in the kitchen.
You know what I would like to see is, as Cy over there driving on the wrong side of the road in his truck.
I didn't even like riding on the wrong side of the right.
I couldn't ever tell where I couldn't deal with it.
No, that's kind of a strange feeling.
I felt like we were going to have a head on crash just any minute.
That guy's fix it run over.
Yeah.
Did that metric system screw you up?
Yes.
We are 700 kilometers.
Oh, okay, cool.
What's that?
Yeah, that's wild.
The metric system's weird, but I think we're weird.
It's a way easier system of math if we would just go to it.
Everybody's got their quirks, boys.
Yeah.
It's got theirs and it's, that's it.
Feet.
It's ice, salt, and...
Miles per hour.
So they do a little fishing.
You know, some people that I talk to, they do a little fishing, but they don't...
Did you think the fish and chips came from?
Well, I mean, I had to catch that myself.
But they don't do any hunting.
I mean, there's...
No, there's like 40 million people on that island.
No.
Yes, they do.
Nope.
People on that island.
And look, they don't have guns.
Except for Sherwood Forest.
They don't have guns.
No, when we did Duck Dynasty over there,
we had to fill out like a mile worth of paperwork just to hold a gun.
Y'all had to take the guns with you?
No, they had them there, but you had to get them from like a certain...
Oh, yeah.
From the people that held the guns.
And like, they would bring them to you.
They were on site the whole time.
Like, you did the thing.
No.
No, you just took a picture.
We just shot the bull.
Hey, that's what's been happening.
Every year we go dove hunting.
We haven't killed anything in the last four years.
I was trying to, you know, hunt a lot.
Nettnest Monster or whatever, but that was...
Oh, hey, I had him on, boys.
Broke the line.
Did you, you? You got something big?
Oh, yeah, I had him on.
Yeah, a bull.
He broke the line.
Yeah.
He broke it.
Line wasn't good enough.
Oh, well...
No, your line is good, so.
To catch the lockness monster, you would need rope.
Philip, did you see anybody that looked like us in England?
I'm just curious.
That's a negative, sir.
They were all good looking and in shape.
No beard.
All clean, shape.
I didn't see a lot of beards.
He didn't spend no time at them pubs.
If everybody would get looking at that shape.
I did not.
Did you see a Waffle House?
No.
Then we win.
It's like we win.
Good night.
There's 56 million people over there.
That's what I'm saying.
That's why they can't hunt because there's too many people.
They claim they have a countryside.
I don't think it's very big.
Did you see the sunshine while you's there?
A very little bit.
Yeah, it was mostly overcast and rainy,
but the sun would come out from time to time.
Oh, I remember that.
And full out of station in Germany.
Yeah.
It was, we did not see the sun for like 45 days.
That's why I didn't think about.
And everybody, everybody was in a-
depressing.
No, no, no, no.
Everybody was in a foul mood, big time.
Big mad.
Really?
Oh, yeah.
You go without sunshine?
I'm telling you, hey, you fix the turn mad.
Every February I get mad.
Well, no, no, because look, hey,
the first day after that,
that the sun come out.
Hey, General said, hey, everybody just
take the day off and enjoy yourself.
There you go.
Go barbecue.
Go do something.
Just enjoy yourself.
Right.
Because everybody was, hey, you say something to them.
You know, they'd bite your head off.
Because everybody was just angry.
Sunlight keeps, you know, the anger down.
Yeah.
Yeah, I agree.
Hey, overclass, overclass.
Maybe that's why this room is so bright.
Overcast days are bad on you.
Yeah.
Good for fishing.
50 if they run for about 45, 50 days without sunshine.
Well, let's take another break.
We'll be back right after this.
Way too long.
Johnny D's over here ordering fishing ride.
The man never stopped working.
Well, Mom asked if we had something.
I don't think we did.
What kind of rod yours?
Somebody just asked for a certain rod.
There you go.
Are we recording?
Yeah, I don't know.
Well, I mean...
Somebody asked for Dobin's Champion 704 C.B. Glass.
All we got is 765 C.B. Glass.
What's different?
76 and 74?
No, 7-0.
Oh, there's medium.
So there is hunting in London, but you have to be kind of on the wealthy side of.
Yeah, and you got to do all your homework before you get there about guns and everything.
They're not America.
No, yeah.
They're not.
I don't know.
I don't believe they have a second amendment.
Speaking of America.
What about America?
How about them girls playing basketball?
Woo!
LSU, Sire.
I can't see you, son.
What are you talking about?
LSU what?
Yeah, the girl.
That was, what, wait, did they win it?
Oh, I'm sorry.
Look at her finger.
I'm sorry, yeah, look at her finger.
That by you Barbie went wild with the trash talk and the smash.
Hey, but LSU played their heart out.
It was an excellent game.
Excellent game.
Old girl from Iowa, Caitlin.
Baller.
She beat the crap out of me in basketball.
Baller.
She was hitting threes that I didn't know what possible.
Yeah, she's unbelievable.
So, I don't know.
I saw they all caught a lot of flack for doing whatever they do.
But, man, in the heat of the moment, you're a college kid.
You got to remember, these people are still kids for the most part.
They're learning how to adult.
And look, they know it's a tough game.
Yeah.
There's a lot of emotions going while, you know, hey, we pulled it off.
Maybe I may have went too far with some gestures, but, I mean, come on.
The reps were terrible, though.
I agree.
Yeah, they were definitely bad.
They didn't let them play.
Huh?
Oh, they were letting them play.
They tried to bring it back, but no.
Yeah, they had lost it.
They were going to run.
Yeah, it was kind of like a pickup basketball game.
LSU just said, we're going to run right at you.
I always said, uh-oh.
But, you know, it's fine.
It was good.
Go coach, what's her last name now?
Mokey.
Yeah.
She had that hyphenated name for a while.
Kim Malky.
Yeah, because her son played for LSU baseball.
And she played for Louisiana Tech in the 70s, I think.
Yeah.
Maybe early 80s.
And in typical Louisiana fashion, her fashion, wild.
Oh, yeah.
She, hey, she dresses like Si.
Yeah.
He goes out on a fence, bedazzled.
Yeah.
She has some cool looking stuff on.
She would have liked it.
Hold on.
Hold on, boys.
I have a story to tell.
All right, we'll have a tell it.
You know what?
I'm going to go full sigh here.
That reminds me.
That reminds me.
Um, so.
Like, time out, though.
Does it actually remind you of, is it pertinent to the story?
story, then you're not going full side.
Oh, that reminds me of something else.
Well, we're talking about cataracts and battle vision.
What about the 95% true, son?
Oh, I'm not doubting that it's 95% true.
I'm just saying every time you say that reminds me,
most of the time it has no correlation to what we're talking about.
You just all of a sudden got jog.
There you go, go ahead.
But this story sticks up for Si.
Go ahead.
That's a good one, yeah.
It's a good one.
All you tell it.
So I'm checking this old guy.
out at the honey hole.
Old.
Work in the cash register.
Okay, so I'm glad you clarified that point.
Yeah, he's purchasing things.
I'm ringing it up.
There you go.
And I look at him, I'm like, something is off here.
And I can't figure it out.
No.
And I'm like, what's going on?
He had popped one lens out of his glasses because he had just had just the left out
done and was going to go get the right out done in a couple weeks.
He's like, don't need this one anymore.
And it was just wearing the one.
So that's apparently a normal thing to do.
Did you tell him about Sye?
Oh, I just kind of.
Why do you not have a cardboard tower of Battle Vision?
You could have sold that guy.
That's right.
Because if he's willing to do that, you know what else he's willing to do.
That's right.
He's going to get battle vision.
I got to laugh at it.
I said, I got a friend named Sire.
You would be good friends with, sir.
He also believes in the, boop.
Was he wearing a jumpsuit?
Nope.
I was just wondering.
I don't remember what he was wearing.
Overall.
Focused on how he only had one lens in his glass.
Oh, that's fantastic.
No, no, that was like a three-ring circus when I went through that.
Because I tell you about coming out and getting in the wrong car.
And got into the wrong car.
But it was so funny because the guy that was in the car, he understood because he was wearing the dark stage too.
He had just had it done.
Yeah.
And he said, I understand.
So I tighten up over.
Yeah.
It was hilarious.
There you go.
That's why I have this cool pillow.
Yeah.
Hide the fun zone.
It's a weird pillow.
There you go.
Hey, we're learning here, man.
We're learning.
That's why we have tables.
I feel like we should have a therapist come in and talk to all of us.
There's one right down to that hall right there.
Hey!
Freddy could do it.
Sadie could do it.
Oh, so?
She could keep us in line.
Probably, is Sadie like, how?
15 years younger than me.
And she's done like three times as much as me.
How old is she?
She's 20.
Well, hey, look, she's probably 12 years younger than me.
She's done probably three times more than most people.
Yeah.
And about to have another kid.
I think she's only like eight or nine years younger with me.
There you go.
I remember when she was a kid, I'd pick her up from ballet.
Willie would be like, hey, can you go pick up?
Give everybody assignments.
You go pick up Sadie.
She's at ballet class.
Here's where you can get her.
Oh, 100%.
Sadie's like, I said, come with me.
I never forget her eyes when I walked into gymnastics.
She was like, well, I guess Dad's in charge again.
In Calhoun.
No, this one was over Monroe.
Me and Bella walked in to pick up Sadie from gymnastics.
It was like, hey, honey.
You remember me?
Times were a lot easier then, because like today, if you want to do that,
I'm sure there'd be a lot of questions.
Bodyguards.
No, sir.
Yeah, but like now, back then they're like,
Oh, yeah, I guess you've got one of the kids.
I guess you're supposed to get the other one too.
So, yeah, the things you do if you work at Duck Commander,
you just get weird assignments at 6 p.m.
Of course, you always knew, like, generally that man,
he was cooking something and couldn't leave it,
so you're like, yeah, I'll go get her.
Not a problem.
That way, because when I drop her off, I'm coming in to eat too.
So we worked cheap.
Still do.
Still do.
You know, is what it is.
And Willie's got away about him.
Go do this for me.
You're like, I'll do it for him.
Yeah.
He's cooking me something to eat.
Yeah, he'll give you anything he's got.
So you're like, you're cashing in on the crumbs, baby, cashing in on the crumbs.
All right, well, let's take another break, not our last break, but another break.
Hey, Martin, when we get back, somebody's got a birthday coming up.
Okay.
It's going to be awesome.
All right, we're back.
Sy.
Welcome back.
How old are you going to be?
I will be 75.
Seventy five.
Three quarters of a century in just a couple of weeks.
Ain't that wild?
Did you ever think you'd make 75?
Nope.
When you were 65, did you think he'd make 75?
No, no, no, no.
And it went by.
That fast, huh?
Fast.
When did that?
I had a guy, I was about 30, I guess.
And he was about 65.
He said, hey, he said, don't blink.
He said, you'll be my age.
And he was right.
And you blinked?
I blinked.
Hey, here I am.
There you go.
Blink, wiggled your toes, and all of a sudden, you think it to be 75.
75 years.
Time does go fast.
I remember, I guess it was 2012.
Doug Dynasty started me.
When did you get your master's degree?
Because my wife also got her master's degree, and I saw you at graduate.
Oh, yeah, we graduated on the same day.
Yeah, Martin, when did you get your master?
I didn't get master.
Oh, no, you were getting here.
I was getting undergrad.
That's right.
Yeah, I got that.
I finished college.
I finished college in three years.
I wasn't on that Johnny D six-year plan.
Hey, take it easy, pal.
When was that?
That's not what I wanted to do in life.
2006?
Hold on, though.
But you're like, you could go back to school and take one class and have a master's degree, right?
I just had to redo my thesis.
I would have to redo current research.
That's it.
Yeah, my class work's done.
All my hours are done.
I just never finished my thesis.
And now why would you?
Yeah.
So all you would have to do was write your thesis?
Yeah, I'd have to do two years of research and do a thesis, and then I'd have to
offend it and then I'd be done. Of course now they offer like non-thesis masters projects. So like you could
go back. I'd go back and take like four more classes and get it too. So it's, but who wants to do
that crap, man? I learned everything I needed to learn. You where you want to be. Yeah. What's the
difference? There is no difference to me. It's not going to affect my pay grade in one shape,
form or fashion. So like why would I go back? I mean, now I get to learn stuff for fun. Now all the
stuff I learned is just hobby nerding.
But I get to,
the cool thing is, like, with the boys, I'm
already, like, getting back into nerd mode
because I'm, you know, like showing them
plants and crap like that.
Plants.
Hey, you need to know what you're
teaching every day. I'm a firm believer, and you need to know
what you're surrounded by.
I agree. I'm just a believer.
You never want to wipe with poison ivy.
I mean, the other day, I took them, I took them fishing.
Not fishing.
You took a fishing? We went walking.
And you went,
And I went fishing.
That's a real dad move.
And they did let me catch one bass before they had had enough.
There's in your neighborhood pond?
Uh-huh.
Oh, we should tear that thing up.
Yeah, man.
Heck yeah.
No, I knew, I said, I told Brittany, I said, look, there's two places of bass lives in this
pond every day, every year.
I said, I'm going to try one of them.
And I walked up there and I saw the little fry go off, so they had already spawned in there.
I said, oh, yeah, he's there.
He's protecting his babies.
This will be easy.
First cast, he missed it.
I was like, come it.
I didn't know if I get him bite again.
Second cast, nothing.
Third cast, I said, yep.
And then went up there to show it to the boys,
and they were just more interested in playing with the worms.
It was kind of unfulfilling on that end of it.
But, you know, they did see it.
Jackson reached out for it,
but then he heard the package of worms crinkle,
and that really got him.
So it's wild, man.
Six months old.
Basically all they do is lay on their back,
thrash around.
crinkles they really enjoy it well that's a that's a fun age and you know it's all fun
ages uh i can remember and you're doing a lot of teaching and training you know
with you're trying to like i walked in when bryson was young i guess he was i don't know maybe three
maybe four and uh we had him potty trained at the earlier age and he was everything's fine but i
walked into the bathroom he's standing on the sink and the toilet is on the other side of the room
And he says, Dad, come watch this.
Come watch this.
And right, he shot a stream.
I'm telling you, he didn't even hit the toilet.
And I laughed.
I laughed.
And my wife came there.
She didn't laugh.
She got the wooden spoon out.
You know, I was like, oh, this is cool.
Hey, we're working on hand-eye coordination.
This is cool.
No, but it's just, you know, there's so many neat and cool things about kids growing up.
And so much teaching to do and so much training.
My biggest deal with them is like,
and I'm trying to make them where they're not scared of anything.
Like, you know, I want to.
Good luck.
Well, I want to introduce them to like fish, snakes, bugs at a young age.
They should be afraid of snakes.
Well, they're going to learn the difference between venomous and non-venomous, obviously.
But I don't want them to see one and then just freak out and have a tantrum.
Like, I want them to know what to do.
Like, either A get away,
No, that was kind of cool.
We can play with it if we want to.
So I live for the day they come walking in the house with a snake
and their mom freaks out.
That's what, I mean, let's just call it what it is.
I have a little ribbon snake that lives in our flower bed,
and he lives in a little irrigation pipe.
He's been there for like three years.
I checked on him the other day.
He's still there, chilling.
He just comes and eats all the bugs out of the deal.
So there's coming a day.
Now, he'll bite you.
That's a problem.
See, their fingers are little enough where he can get them right now.
I don't want to do that.
So he don't bite me.
We're cool.
But I do want them to like be exposed to all that kind of stuff because I again,
I just don't want them to freak out.
Like I want them to enjoy nature and embrace what's around them.
And you know, I can't.
The thought of like them running from a fish or something is just more than I can bear.
Like I just can't.
No, that's stuff we play with.
Yeah, the healthy fear can be, you know, don't walk out of the road.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean things like that.
Stranger danger.
Yeah.
Yeah.
there's there's a difference between respect and fear like and that's what i want to teach them a healthy
respect for all these things so it's it's a lot of fun we're we're having fun we're playing with bugs
we're you know picking clovers in the yard and hand them to them watch them play them trying to
them trying to keep them out of their mouth and they're at that stage where they're like
everything goes in their hand goes to their mouth it's like i'm out now but no it's it's like
you know carrying around a 75 year old you get to experience things for the first
It's an old people.
When's the last time you stood on the cabinet and tried to make it in the toilet?
The question is, if you stood on the cabinet, could you make it in the sink?
There's a lot to that.
There's a lot to that.
Second child.
Oh, man.
Could you make it in the sink?
I love it.
Golly.
No, they are a lot of fun now.
They're markedly more enjoyable.
Now, mainly because they sleep all night.
They sleeping on night?
That's the ticket.
You can be afraid of whatever you want to be afraid of in my house,
as long as you sleep all night.
So what's the difference in, you know,
when you have your own kids and when you have grandkids?
You got to an age that you're,
I guess God says it's, you know, it's wisdom.
You know, by all the experiences you've taken,
you take the time.
okay to teach them, you know, their grandparents is my thought.
They've got the time on their hands so they actually spend it productively like he's talking
about.
Yeah.
They show them stuff.
They tell them about stuff that they went through when they were a child.
Like my mom, she lived until she was 94.
And I said, Ma, you've seen a lot of changes.
you know,
through the human race,
you know,
and she was,
she was talking about,
yeah,
you know,
and she said,
and not all of it's good.
Well,
what if she's still here,
him?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because,
you know,
she was in the day
that doctors
used to hook
electricity to people.
Yeah.
And then sadistic rascal
over there.
Mm-hmm.
Turning the knob.
Yeah.
To the different levels and watch them twitch.
Yeah, that's horrible.
No, no.
That was medical.
That was the medical feel back in that.
They would also drill holes in the back of people's head, you know.
Well, bleed.
They cut them and let them bleed and think they was doing good, doing it.
That's rough.
Hey, him one way to find out.
Yeah.
Trial in air.
But I just, you know, like grandfathers and grandmothers,
because I didn't get to know either one of my grandfathers.
You didn't.
I didn't know that you didn't get to meet any of your grandparents or just grandfather.
Dad's dad didn't know him and then mama's, you know, father.
And I missed out on a lot of stuff, okay, that they would have shared with me.
Oh, yeah.
100%.
Because once you get, you know, up there in age, you know, you take the time, you know.
They've got plenty of time on their hand.
Okay, so because mom and dad is busy, you know, usually too busy making a living and taking care of business, you know, that they don't give them the time that most of them that they, you know, would like to give them more.
Yeah.
I'm looking forward to being a grandfather one day.
Because you've got, you know, you're busy making a living.
Yeah.
We don't let, we don't.
Yeah, I'll come help you.
You want some practice?
I'd love it.
We'll drop them off tonight.
Drop them off.
Drop them off.
I won't mind.
And Alicia, I'll love.
love it. Anytime you need us, the baby said, we would love me. All the thing, hey, all they
do, just like, come get you a terrible kid. That's what you used to say? Yeah. With yours?
Oh, man. Well, let's take our last break. We'll be back right after this.
Yeah. All right, we're back. Hello at dot callroom.com. We're, John D.D.
What's in the mail? We're in a there. Should we? Nah, let's not go deep. What you got in there
I just got really excited about that one, but I don't want to read it online.
Yeah, I got some stuff.
Sorry.
This one made me laugh.
James.
Jimmy, you like it.
He was at an antique fair.
Oh, shoot.
Road show.
You said that there's something in my office I need to get inside.
What?
Oh, antique.
You have to see it.
This man was at an antique fair, and he found that.
which is a bubblehead of Willie.
Willie antique.
Man, he didn't have to go to an antique fair.
A bobble head of Willie.
Place management around here.
We threw a dumpster full of them things away.
I don't want to talk about that.
I just thought it was funny that
Willie's an antique.
Willie's an antique.
And then Amy emails in.
She saw you at the Bassmaster.
I don't know if she met you, but she did see you.
Hey, I was there.
From Boonville, North Carolina.
North Calculac, baby.
And since we talked about a master's in biology,
this could be what you write your thesis on.
I see something says a question about my box turtle.
Box turtles are awesome.
They are.
They're fantastic.
I love box turtles.
Hey, guess what their partners are underground?
Worms.
Rattlesnake.
That's a gophing tortoises.
That's the only thing I didn't like about it when I was, like he was talking about.
They're a cool little turtle.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, she's got a rescue box turtle.
Love it.
It's got one eye.
Oh.
What?
And it won't eat.
Box turtle that she rescued.
Oh.
It won't eat?
Won't eat.
Oh, won't eat in captivity?
Oh, Jack Eilum, turtle.
Oh, so she rescued it and now it won't eat.
Well, yeah, because I mean, not all things are meant to be tame.
Like, that's a.
She has a lamp, a heating pad, and his kitty pool, but he doesn't want to eat.
Yeah, it happens.
Hey, he ain't hungry.
What's the answer, Martin?
Let him go.
Let him be wild again.
Like when he was.
Like when he was.
bring animals.
We got one eye.
Hey, I've caught a lot of fish with one eye.
Like, they can make it.
Hey, I would name him Jack Elam.
Jack Elam.
One eye.
Okay.
Too young.
I'm pretty sure my dog was blinding one eye from his birth.
Yeah, I mean, but one eye.
They didn't know.
They're like, well, we can't ask him.
Oh, here's the deal.
It's true.
Here's the thing you got to remember.
Nature's cruel, man.
And the one-eyed things get snuffed out pretty quick.
But only-
You can't save them all.
all. Like, they're just a natural order of things that take place.
Well, one-eyed things, things that are different colors than they're supposed to be.
Like, you know, when a deer is born white, that's a pretty rough life for him.
Everything can see him. He can't hide. Same with squirrels.
Same with things that come out albino and all that.
But the alligators all end up at the New Orleans Zoo.
Well, most white alligators are bred in captivity anyway.
So that's just what lion breeding does to you.
That's some of the uniqueness of it.
Yeah.
Like black fox squirrel.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was hunting and I kept seeing something move and I never could figure out what in the world.
You know, and it's getting dark the whole time.
Then I finally through my scope up and I said, oh, that's why I'm having trouble
in keeping up with this Joker.
Yeah.
He saw that black.
If you're born with that, then you live a long time because you can have it pretty easy.
Now, them white ones, though, they get snuffed out there.
No, because it goes against.
But if he won't eat, I don't know if she's trying to ham feed him, leave stuff in there for him and walk away.
Like, just get away from him.
Like, let him live in your garage in a cage or something.
Just don't be around him.
Just leave him alone.
I have a buddy who has a whole pen of box turtles, so to speak, that he has found on the side of the road.
And, like, they live their best life.
I mean, they got like 12 of them.
And they're having babies in there.
It's cool.
Oh, no.
That's a.
They're cool.
And his kids love them and like, now I can't wait for mine to get big enough to go.
He's got an automatic garage door.
Yeah.
He can close it again.
Anytime he's ready.
Yeah.
All right.
Anyways.
AJ from Oklahoma.
AJ.
Good country.
We can hold it down for the city of my name.
That commercial was awesome.
It was.
We just went full 2003 up in here.
All right.
Anyway, AJ from Oklahoma.
Huge fan.
Listen to the Duck Call Room podcast has a question, and he has a girlfriend.
And his question is about his girlfriend.
Uh-oh.
She makes quite a bit more money than I do.
My man.
All right.
Boom.
High five that, baby.
But I still pay for everything.
She is expressed that she would like to pay for things more.
Later.
He's a gentleman.
But I'm old school in regards to that.
At what point is it okay?
for her to pay for things.
Wouldn't you say so?
Yeah, whenever she wants to.
That's right.
It doesn't make you until the money runs out.
Yeah.
It doesn't make you less of a man if you're at dinner and she's like, here, I'll buy it.
Let her buy it.
Let her buy it.
It's cool.
I mean, I'm the same way.
I'm old school.
Like even, we're married.
We've been married for however long now, almost 10 years or whatever.
And even when the check comes now, look, it's kind of.
coming out of one place. I still grab it.
Like, I mean, it's, it's just part
of what's built into us, but
man, if that's where y'all are at and you're dating,
just let her do whatever.
If it makes her happy, let her do it.
Like, I mean, it's fine. It's cool.
It's a hard pill to swallow, but, like,
you're also being fiscally responsible.
And when you're dating.
I said, no, it ain't.
No, it ain't. Because you need this,
it's your perspective of things.
It's all about perspective, boys.
Look, here's what I will tell you to do that.
Your woman is lucky enough that she's got a good job that pays well.
Yeah.
Goodos to her and to you.
Don't be stupid about this.
But just don't wait for her to propose to you if that's the future.
Yeah, yeah.
I'll go completely backwards here.
Just count that as one of the blessings that the Almighty have blessed you with.
You buy dinner, she buys ice.
Maybe you buy, you know.
Or, yeah, you pay for coffee, she pays for the meal.
Yeah.
You got to be confident enough to let her pay for something.
It doesn't affect your manhood.
No, no, it shouldn't.
It shouldn't.
Okay.
And here's the other deal.
If you're dating, I assume you're not just dating her and you know you're going to break up one day.
You probably want it to go somewhere at this juncture.
Maybe you would break up one day, who cares?
But one day is all going to be your money anyway together.
Yeah.
So you might as well get used to sharing stuff.
This is for you.
Yeah.
For both of you.
Yeah.
It's a good thing.
It's a good problem.
I understand about, I understand that you want to take care.
Yeah.
That you are the leader of the house.
Wow.
Okay.
But don't do it to a point of just being.
Don't be, don't be fiscally irresponsible either.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I would just say, hey, count it as one of your.
And if you want to buy a big dinner, call our friends over at Dave.
that's true yeah but don't let don't let it get to you if she wants to buy something let her buy it
and then have a conversation like hey i appreciate it um you know you're not mooching off of her
say thank you yeah sweet say thank you open the door all the good stuff
what else we got we got time for one more we got time well most of them so most of them are
snacks oh well we'll get to that once we get back in our home folks look we have all the snacks
for the people reaching out to me.
I think we got to talk about snacks here for a second
because, I mean, there are snacks left right.
So in my office, there is an uncomfortable amount of calories.
That's hard for me to say, but you know it's done gotten out of hand if I'm telling you
it's an uncomfortable.
There are some very bizarre ones that I have tasted.
Not sure how they were ever a thing.
Not sure.
But there are some really good ones, too.
Have you seen it,
have you seen the snack in the office?
All you got to do is go in there.
They're not hidden.
We'll take a look at it.
Take a look.
But once we get back in our home,
the duck call room,
we will break down,
we will pull out all the snacks,
we will break down the bracket.
And I just really feel like we need Mr. Gobwin.
Oh, boy,
there's a spreadsheet, baby.
I made a spreadsheet.
You made a spreadsheet.
But.
Christmas tree cakes.
How many seeds did you go up to?
Oh, we got a 64-man bracket.
Oh, you got a 64-man bracket.
We might have to have a spreadsheet.
in games. Okay.
Peeps, Phil?
What, 3C?
No, 16 for sure.
It's just because they won their conference
against freaking sordid.
And they accidentally won a play in game.
Yeah. Or it's like Cadbury cream eggs or
something like that.
They're not FDU.
So, okay.
They're not going to make a run.
They ain't making a run.
You want to send us out of here?
Also Slim Jim's a one seed.
Yeah, let me find a Bible version.
I'm in this, like, new weird spot
where I don't know how to sit and I don't know how to sit.
and I don't know how to work a lot.
I don't know what to do with my hands.
I don't know how to work this laptop with it being in my lap.
Well, since you're, you're what, uncle?
He's done such a fabulous job Sunday.
Why not something about living water?
Living water.
We all got to have water, okay, for there to be life.
Water for there to be.
Okay.
If you just keep talking, I'll find it about it.
You know, God has a purpose for each and every one of us.
You need to look into that.
Maybe your purpose is that you will become a spring of living water to other people.
Yeah, I hate we missed having Mac on the podcast.
I didn't know he was in town until.
He sneaks in, he preaches, and he sneaks out.
On our way back from London, me and Leisha ran into Mac and Mary in the airport.
And then they were calling a Robertson.
Robertson, please come to the front.
And I was like, it's got to be somebody I know flying from Monroe, I mean,
two months from Dallas to Monroe.
And I walked up and I said, is it Willie or Jep or Jace?
Because I'll just call them.
She was like, no, this is some other Robertson.
It was Corey.
I saw her when she walked up.
Oh, Corey.
All right.
You ready?
Yeah.
There was a woman at the well.
John 4, 13, and 14, Jesus answered,
everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again,
but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst.
Indeed, the water I give them will become in them
a spring of water welling up to eternal life.
Amen.
Amen to that.
Get you a sip of that, baby.
Put this in your fip in the smoke.
That's right. That's right.
Get you a sip of that.
We'll see y'all next time with hopefully
back in our home.
But next time I'll lay it down.
We may, next time we may be in the kitchen.
This makes me think about a lion.
The kitchen.
The main.
Here we go.
If we got in the kitchen, all we're going to do is.
All right.
We're at one.
Are we really?
I was ahead.
We're done.
