Duck Call Room - Uncle Si Has a Love-Hate Relationship with Phil Robertson's Dogs

Episode Date: September 27, 2022

Phil and Miss Kay are known for the pets they keep, be it the revolving door of Bobos and Bebes or their hunting dogs. Martin and Jay reminisce about Phil's great retriever, Blue, and his odd personality, and Si remembers being Blue's pee target whenever he tried to take a nap. Si has the boys howling about Jase's suggestion that Blue live in the house with Phil and Miss Kay for a few weeks. Jay talks about how protective the late Bobo was and even shows some videos in his honor. Martin shares the piece of advice he's plain TIRED of hearing and gives an update on how Brittany is doing in the final days of her pregnancy. John-David can't believe he's never heard Si tell the story of the time a squirrel bit him — and the subsequent lesson that squirrel quickly learned. And we're all praying for a friend of the show, Zac Stephens, who just went through a leg amputation after a terrible accident.  - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Now you ready to go to Venice? We fixed the head down to Venice. Is there a teal down there? Captain Josh Gaut. We're not talking about Venice, Italy. We're talking about Venice, Louisiana. You're going to shoot teal? We're going to shoot a few blue-wing teal while we're down there.

And we may go out and try the redfish in the afternoons. They got a few teal down there, according to my friend. That's it, I got a friend down there? We sat by each other at the Saints game, All Sad. All Sad. No, we just talked about T. There you go. Si, I asked you this last time.

I'm going to ask you this again. What? When you get to Bell Chase and you take a left. Stop. Right across the street. There's a place you can buy stuff chicken. Stuff chicken. Stuff chicken.

Bring me back about 12 at him. 12? Well, I hope if I ask for 12, he'll get two. Last time I asked for two and he brought back zero. Well, you got to be careful because it might be like the bells. and you might get 46. Well, what you do is you ask the man next to you. No, I don't, no, I'm putting the ownership on you.

No, I ain't much on stuffed chicken. You ain't, that's because you ain't had it. Well, hey. They ain't going to try it either. I ain't going to try it. What's he gets his mindset on something? That's it. My goodness.

You say stuffed chicken, what comes to my mind is dressing, duck and dressing. They got one of them, if you want it. But I prefer the ones that's got like the sausage. dressing in it. And them, these are the big old chicken, that's it? Mm-hmm.

But they're deboned. There ain't a bone and, you just take a fork and you get the whooping on it. Mm-hmm. Okay. Oh, they are good. You want white meat?

You take that quarter. You want dark meat? You get on any end of him. It don't matter. I'm a dark meat, man. All right. That's the one that, like, I don't really even care which one I may end up with.

You don't care. Just lop it in half and put it on my plate. Let's go. Just stop and bring me some back. I've eaten a whole one before, but. Oh, you can do it. they're that good the problem is you sit there and water

that stuff and they just got a little sodium oh yeah them cajans get on that dirty rice down there and they they pour that salt I was proud of the fact that I've eaten a whole one but I have oh I have too what's the name of that place the butcher block or something like that

yeah I don't even know there's a few of them down there but there's one right at that red light where you have to take a left it's like right across the red light from you're looking at it there's one in Lafayette that's really good yep but we can get you one of stuff

with Budan oh I love Boudan. No, I don't eat Boudan, boys. You eat squirrel, but not Boudan. Nope. What are you got against Boudan? I just don't like it.

Do you like sausage? Yeah, I like sausage. You like Vienna sausage, but Boudan's where you draw the way. No, not Vianna sausage. I'm talking about regular sausage. Here's your farms. They make some good sausage, boys. That's like the gar of all gaw.

Oh, I don't want to hear that. That's like. He'll sure make some good sausage. Oh, the only thing they got. go and forms them little smoky. Hey, Jimmy Dean, make your sauce. No. I'd prefer just farm raised, chop that sucker up and let me have the real thing,

not no grocery stores. Oh, good grief. I prefer killing my own protein to put in the sausage. That's the best way. But that old boy in Calhoun, I'll go get sauces from him on Mr. McCain. Yeah. Yeah, that's good. Now that's good sauce.

That jalapeno cheese is. It don't get no better than solid. No, and it's extremely solid. It's a solid-sized stomach. That's right. I'm here to tell you. Oh, it's solid. You're looking forward to, you looking forward to being down there in Venice again?

Yeah, of course I do. That's my favorite spot on earth. It's where the Mississippi River runs into the Gulf of Mexico and all the wildlife that's down there in that area. Them fine, tasting blue wings. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, you'll be shocked.

Have you had a blue wing from down there? Yeah. They're really good. They're way better than what we got up here. That's a while. You can actually eat them from down there. Oh, we made ducking gravy last time. It was spectacular.

Now, take that down there where you make that gravy out of that W sauce and see what you got going. I still ain't had it. Well, take that with you. Take it with you? We'll replace it. Dubby. Yeah. It's good.

Get your little pull off that. It's good stuff. Oh, yeah. He's fire. He said, hmm. Yeah. You make your gravy out of him. I'm hungry now.

Well, yeah, of course we're. I haven't eaten. Eating breakfast nor lunch. Yeah. No, we're going to stop down there. We're going to pick up Dr. Deans on the way down. Oh, paintologist. Oh, baby.

Yeah. They treat you better at a hotel. That's it. That's it. We're going to go down there and do us a little till hunt, a little redfish catching, a little fellowship. That sounds fun. Take a load off for a couple days.

A September vacation. I like that. I dig it. We've been doing it for, what, the past five years? Yep. And it's always a blast. Always. You got plenty of shells?

Oh, yeah. You ain't shot yet this year, so you're going to have to knock that rust off that first morning. Oh, yeah. Oh, the last time I went, we had it had a little wind blowing it. The first three times I missed, shot behind them. But then I got mad. And then I got glad because the next six in a row was, boom.

He busted, boom, he busted, boom. So you're ready. Oh, yeah. I've noticed something, by the way. There's no oxygen backpack here. No, that's it in the truck. That's good. That's what I'm talking about.

That's a pro move. Well, I've been wearing it. On the trip over there, I wore it. Okay. And then on the trip back, I actually. I don't. I got you. Why we're just driving.

That's good. You're taking you 20? I've got, yeah. No, I'm going to take it's 20. Oh. I've actually got it put it on your finger to check the Occhio level

Oh yeah me and Johnny D was strapped up to them for a while What I didn't know It only goes to 97 Because Philip did it And I said well there's nothing wrong With your lungs

Go ahead You do it and tell me what you come up With the first time when it comes up And he come up 93 Oh that's not good Well no no it don't It don't run to 90 but to 97

If you were it for an hour, how is this going to go is to 97? Well, I've been running up to 97, and then I'd take it off and put it away for a while. But the other morning I got up from my sleep at night and went in and put it on, and I was 66. And I said, whoa. You sure you didn't have it upside down? No, no, no. I said, whoa. That was going to be my next quick.

60s. No, no. Yeah. So, actually, it may have. It may have been, the battery may have been a lot. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, I don't think that was accurate. Most of the time, if I want to put it on, it's like 90, it comes up,

and it comes up 90, and then if I sit there for a minute or two, 91, 92, 93, 94. Oh, yeah. You know, if I sit there for like 20 minutes, it would run up to 97, and then I take it off. They saw an eight on me and said, sir, we're going to need you to head to the old hospital. Mm-hmm. And check in for a minute.

Well, I did just change the battery out because it was acting up. You get down in the eight, so you're almost leaving the earth. You. Anyway, well, that's what that, I just noticed he didn't have oxygen, so I knew that meant you were feeling good. That's good. I didn't bring him. And he's ready to go kill some teal, catch some kids.

No, we've been doing this for about five years, and it's an awesome trip, great guys down there. But they actually have a duck blind down there that they named after Si. They call it the SciPad. And hey, it's a side, baby. Look, let me tell you, when I tell you, it's a hot hole. Yes, sir. I like Josh

Josh is a cool dude The best one was Jace went down with us one year Oh yeah Okay And the first thing Jace did Was try to tell the man that owned the hole Well hey let's go over and hunt over there

He's gonna tell him how to kill ducks On his property So he told him He tried to tell him He said hey look no I got another bind We better go to it And Jace

So the guy said okay So they pulled up Getting the blind That Jace wants to hunt You know and I think four come in and they kill them you know well guess who comes shows up they look out there when the four

blue wings hit the water and here comes Mr. Alligator and I love it now because you got to understand they stick wool of trees and all this stuff together to put it, pull the boat to swim so they're sitting in there and they're in a boat you know and the alligator you know they killed the four tills

and the alligator in about 10 foot y'all long and he swums right up to the boat and just comes up and looks at jace turns around and goes out there and goes eat that first blue wing and he turns around and comes back to their boat looks at jace again turns around out there and goes eat the second one comes back eat the third one

come back yeah hey like what are you going to do thank you for the till it's preface Mm-hmm. Looking at Jason saying, boy, you ain't nothing but gristle. I ain't touching you. Hey, you don't look here, you're a little stringy. A little stringy. A little stringy.

A long story short, me and Si got done with our limit. It drove by them about 7.30. They made it back to the camp about 11. Yeah, about 11 o'clock. Don't guide the guide. That's right. That's the role. Don't ever guide the guide the guide.

Yeah, that's a bad deal. That's good words to live by. Don't guide to guide. You're there for a reason. Sit back and enjoy yourself. Yep. Another rule is guests. Don't bring guests.

That's true. That's what we learned. That's what we learn. Bring a guest. Okay. So, no, we don't invite him anymore. I wonder how many places Jason got weeded out of. He generally ain't on that left.

He got weeded out of that one. He's on that one, buddy. It's got to be a sunny disposition. But, you know, here we go. Let's take our first break. We'll be back right after this. All right, look, springtime is here. It's warming up.

You know what that means. That means more outside cooking. And y'all know we love to eat beef around here. And that's what because of our friends over at Triedells beef makes such a good product, baby. Ain't it good? It's so good. Our friend, Sao 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 Triedales beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Triedales comes from a family ranch out in Texas. They're a fifth generation American ranch. So they've been at it for a while. Now, look, the beef comes straight from their ranch and other ranchers they work with who raise cattle the same way. Their steaks are properly aged and shipped straight from the ranch to your door.

We threw a couple of ribbys on the grill. Look, salt, pepper, garlic, hot fire, that's all you need. Look, because I 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 ain'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. Well, you do smell much better than your brother. Yeah, that's the fact. When you're measuring stick is feel. They don't go there.

Yeah, well, hey, that don't make me feel real, you know, fuzzy feet. I was over yesterday, his chair is surrounded by pee pads. Oh, the puppies. For those little rat terrier. What's that? For Bobo. Three months ago? EB and Bobo.

Yeah, EB and Bobo. Do you think M2 is worried about how? breaking an animal. There is a trail of pee pads from his chair all the way to the front door. And them dogs don't even pee on them. They pee on the floor. Mm-hmm. Right next to the pee pad.

So Phil grabbed the pee pad and wipe up the dog pee with the pee pad and then turn it over and set it back down on the floor. It's a wild west down there. I can't say my dog is, he's starting to smell like he's done turn, but he's, but he's, he's still alive somehow, so. He's going to be, I'm going to have a 14-year-old bastard hound in like a week or two. I don't know what his actual birthday is somewhere in the middle of October. Have you seen Kay's new dogs?

Uh-uh. They're about this tall. Miniature. Miniatur. They'll feed him in your hand for the most part. They'll feed him a little miniature rat terrier. Yeah. Minature rat terrier.

You know, every time one of them dies, she gets another one and names it the same name. But this time she got two, a female and a male, so she got Bobo and Beebe. And Beebe. And BB. D.B. got a pink collar. Bobo got a black collar. But Bobo cloned up on top of Phil's chair. It's a dangerous place. And started doing this. Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

Oh, nothing will make you move quicker than the sound of a dog trying to vomit either. So Phil jumps up and... Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Half a second. I can hear him. That dog projectile vomits, this big ball about the size of this stupid bell right here. What do you eat? And it went right down, Phil's back. Ah!

Yeah. Warm, too. In the day, that dog would have been dead the next second. I'm serious. You can't say that. But Phil's repented. Back in the day, you know how it happened? Pre- Jesus.

That was BC. Pre-Jesus. Before Christ. Yeah. That was before, yeah. Small dogs are scary, though. Because you never know where they're at. Well, my wife has a traumatic story about her dog as a child and a recliner.

That dog wasn't with her anymore. That is traumatic. I got one, too. It's a similar circumstance. Dogs are just lovely creatures. Not way better than a cat. Well, some of them are. But it's so sad when they go out in painful ways because they're timing.

Painful ways, boys. Vomiting. No, but it was a feel. tells the story a lot more detailed than I do but it's a pretty good story but but when you walk in his house next time Martin just the the the P-pad trail is is pretty impressive it was like that whenever we cooked I was like a yellow brick road around here man like well you know I was I was eating lunch yesterday and I just it was the roast was good but it I just couldn't the the air was filled with urine, urine scent.

Yeah. So it was very difficult. Won't be long for he'll be going to smell like dog pee and old spice. I mean, that's just, that's the road we're headed down, you know. But honestly, not necessarily a downgrade from his normal smell. So, I mean, the first time I ever was down at Phil, first time, I mean, all I knew about Phil was what I had seen on videos. He said, come go with me.

And I was like, oh, that's pretty cool, whatever. So I jumped on a four-wheeler with him. We wouldn't in no truck on a four-wheeler. So I'm downwind of the man the whole time because he's driving. It's before side-by-sides and all that. It's just a Honda. And I'm like, man, what is that? I'm like, hmm, stout.

It took me about an hour to determine it was him. Yeah. And I was like, wow, man, the duck commander, don't use deodor he's a woodsman I mean he just he's got a hard stance on deodoring I guess I don't know

he's just out in the woods and that's when he told me to say yeah I shower on Saturday nights whether I need it or not and I'm like well he got to be kidding it wasn't long running around there no he ain't kidding he ain't kidding I mean he

yeah I mean he he just you know that that's just something he does I think he would shower probably honestly before church I think that was his big two big days probably Wednesday about lunch and then Saturday night for Sunday morning church

and the man don't care I give him mad he is he is blissful in his own smell well he can't smell anymore either yeah he just took that do not conform well owners this world thing very serious elders have never bothered him

yeah I've seen that with some of the stuff that we've messed around with down there and I'm pertin near gagging Yeah, which means I'd be throwing up everywhere. Everybody else is running away, gagging. And it feels like. And he's just talking about. He's holding it, you know, it's like, what's the problem? Yeah.

Yeah, the man does, what's that you see on TV? Nose blind? Yeah, I think that's what he is. He nose blind. It's a life in general. Just no olfactory senses going on. No. What was that dog we had that every morning would take a dump in the boat?

Trace? Yeah. I always took a dump on Jason's stuff too. Oh, yeah. In the boat? In the boat. No, he didn't like Jason. Well, find Jace's stuff.

Mm-hmm. Took one in the back of the rig with us one morning because Jace was driving. Yep. Just right on top of his bag and shotgun. That dog crum. Couldn't stand him. Couldn't stand, Jason. Didn't do nothing to the rest of us.

No. That dog would take a dump in the boat. And Blue always peed on a side. Yeah. If I actually laid down and tried to take him out, which was everything. The next thing out here is Pshh.

Blue said, I'm claiming you. You're my territory. Hey, I kicked that sucker in the face. Bam! Don't get away from me, crazy rascal.

So remember that. If you pee on side, you're going to get kicked in the face. Yeah. No, we used to when I was playing football in high school, the Jesuits, okay,

a religious school. Mm-hmm. Well, when you were on the bottom of the, pile. They pee on you? Oh, no. Them suckers would bite you. Oh.

Through the helmet? Huh? Hey, they'd take the helmet off and stink their teeth in your calf. Well, guess what happened when he's done it to me? Hey, I put them cleats in his face. I don't know why. You didn't have no meat on you. I'm sure he chipped a tooth on your leg.

Hey, but hey, when he put them choppers on my leg bone? He bids you? Yeah, he bit me. And I kicked up fire out of it. Was his last name, Tyson? No. I don't know who was. Didn't care.

I was just curious. I kicked that sucker with him feet. You let go. Got to watch him Jesuits now, apparently. Hey. They're from New Orleans, anything. Mean boys, mean boys. Mean boys, he said.

They bite you on in the pack, boys, in the piles. I wonder what it takes for a dog to just think to pee on you every time you lay down. I mean, what does that dog view you as? Well, Harry, he was just trying to show his dominance. Over you? Yeah. Did he? Yeah.

No, I kicked him every time he did. right in the head. Right in the head. He never... I said, I'm the alpha. But, you know, in fairness, that's how a pack of dogs works. They try to measure each other up.

Si just proven he'll lead dog. I have Si pees on something. You're going to smell it for years. There ain't much. Cy ain't peed on. Much as he got too deep. It is. Every time he takes leak,

I think I'm smelling a gas leak somewhere, caracine or nitroglissor. If you really want to have some fun If you really want to know It get the full experience of it Take a water hose And just dump some water in your boat

And then turn your bills pump on There you go And sit it on level ground That's about like listening to inside Take a leak It start off good Start But then you gotta have the

But then it's got to get compression Oh, whoa Oh wait Found it There it is Hey boys Battery is low boys That's it

The best is If you battery on the bill's phone It's a little bit low Back of the day whenever you had to, we flew on all them little planes that didn't have a toilet. Oh, yeah. So I got into some binds on them jokers. I've seen him use that tube on the side of them.

I've threw jugs away. You had to go? Had to go. I kept asking the pilot, hey, how long before we land this baby? He said, about 35 minutes. I said, no, sir, ain't going to make it. Ain't there, boys. Ain't there.

I said, well, I said, well, I said, That's all that. Tees gone. Got a little too light of yellow color to it. It's turned. It's turned, boys. There ain't no good. Oh, man.

That ain't lemon juice. Oh, goodness. Well, that was a segment. Yeah, well, let's take a break. We'll be back right after this. All right, Martin, did you know that Phil's famous dog, Blue, just produced a litter of puppies? Oh, boy. Blue had puppies?

Well, he was the sire. He was the sire. He didn't have them, but. Was it with a female lab? Yes. That is confierre. I was just, you know, I was checking if, you know, they brought them. A female Labrador retreat.

Okay, okay. I was thinking he had probably bred just some, you know, road dog. So what are we? There's a lot of ways we could have with that. It's 2022. You shouldn't have to. You have to verify. So Blue has littered puppies.

You know, Burley took Blue to Colorado. Burley's guys hunted with us for years. He took old Blue when he got old and put him out to pasture, as they say. Well, it turns out that Blue had some offspring. So Phil told Burley, said, look here, you picked the, three best-looking puppies you got and you bring them down here and we're going to figure out which one is going to be the best during hunting season so now you've got three dogs this okay so he's got three of puppies that blue side of three of blue's puppies on the way

any of them a female i don't know i'll fix it i'll take the washout because i bet i can still make a dog yeah oh yeah yeah but who's the one that just barked the whole time isn't he well he he made he talked he had his own language. He actually spoke. He could speak duck a knees. Yeah. He's a, right, here's the thing. Hey, here's the thing, but, okay.

Blue's just like a Robertson, okay? If you could have taught him to shoot a shotgun, not only would he have shot the ducks, then go get him, okay, because he loved the sport. Okay. Blue, a fine retriever. Yeah. Yeah.

Notice I didn't say, dog. That's right. He's a great retriever. The best, I would say. He's got too many issues as a dog. I would say the best cripple getter I've ever seen. He would have retrieved crippled woodies in the buck brush, which is nearby impossible. Yep.

And he had the best nose of any dog I've ever been around. And memory. And memory. He could mark everything. Oh, yeah. Yep. He's watching. But.

But his downfall. He couldn't shut up. Never shut up. And he had. had a real bad gas. Yeah. And he peed on side. And he had pee on anybody.

If you was laying steel, he fixed piss on you. That's just bottom line. Hey, the boy had bad. He was rude, crude, and just too many issues. Just like it Robertson. But a fantastic hunter. Fantastic retriever. Fantastic retrieving.

Look, long as one ever made, we're on one side of dog by us, about 40 acres. We're on one side. We, Maller Drake lights out there. I'll tell you about 80. So everybody feels, say, everybody gets on the shooting at the same time. So we, boo, crippled it. So Blue takes off, the Mald Drake takes off.

He can actually flap on the water. Run it on the water. Can't get an airborne, but he can actually run flapping. He's flapping. So he goes out of sight, flapping. Out of sight. Okay, on the other side of the property.

15 minutes later, you know, Jay said, here, that goes that bottle of Drake, you know, in front of the blind on the other side of the lake, you know, of dog bow. And he said, uh-oh, right behind him, there's blue, 15 yard behind him. 15 minutes later, we're here. Here comes blue and he's got that big bottle of Drake. It was actually about an hour later. After we saw him, an hour later.

He came back with that duck in his mouth, an hour later. And he went plumb out of hearing. Hey, he caught him. He run him down and brought him back. And not only that, if we see a cripple cell down, I'm talking five, six hundred yards away. Jace marks better than blue. So Jace knows the general area where that duck went down. Take blue over there way after the hunt.

Turn him loose. Guess what? Find him. He comes back with him. Yeah, blue good. Now this is 500 yards away. We watched the matter of Drake trickle down. Bad dog.

You know, three hours later. we quit hunting and Phil says hey take Blue Jace you got him marked take him so there's a chance one of these three could be there's a chance as long as they bred it like a mute female yeah yeah then we got a 50-50 chance it'd be normal well hey here's the deal they had a discussion one day in the black and talking about so okay here's here's the options we got available with Blue So we can cut his vocal cords out. That's not an author.

That ain't an officer. I don't know. Well, he's just, he's always, y'all, making noise with his tail on the blind boat. Oh, yeah. He would find a piece of wood on that duck blind. It's the way it's going on all more. Sound familiar? Yeah.

Yeah. So anyway, you know, we're talking about, well, we can cut his tail off. We can bob tell him. So, no. Got to have that to swim. You got to have that to swim at his rudder. I'm a man, you know, y'all, y'all, you're talking about, you're talking. pretty tough one is my dog

here, boy. He's the best retrieval we ever got. He's talking, yeah, but he's got a few issues that we need to address. We need to do something with it. And hollered to the high heaven. You go, cor, cor, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, if you blew the duck call,

he turned into a wolf. But had a pretty good cadence about it. He was just joining in. He was duck call activated. And even if you blew the whistle. Yeah. You blow soft?

The Mallard Drake called, but he would how soft when you blew soft. When you blew loud, he howled loud. He just wanted to fit in. He didn't want to miss out. He was a hunger. I'm telling you, he was a duck hunter. He had FOMO.

Just like everybody is. I love this dog. The fear of missing out. That's not the fear of missing? But that dog had, Martin is right, great retriever, terrible dog. You know, they say a dog takes on as owner's personality. And that over the years, that dog being around Phil and sigh. Point on, it turned into them.

It turned into them. That's funny. If Jace was the funniest one one, feels the time, you'll tell you, hey, take blue with you. Chase would be out there, over. And I said, Jash, forget it. You do not have a voice command. No. Okay.

That dog, that dog ain't even, he ain't even paying attention. Phil and Jace both. They are not very good dog handlers. Great hunters. Terrible dog. Yeah. That's right. Don't understand nothing about it.

But you can't tell them that. No. I said, Phil, blow that whistle one time. He'll stop, Phil. Up, pop, pop, pop, pop. No, that means come back one time. Can't do it? Jay's worse than him.

Yeah. He'll just barely blow him. that whistle. I said, you got to blow it hard one time. Yeah. And got the blinds are brushed in that the ducks can't see. You said the dogs can't either. And you're up there trying to go over and the dog can't see you. And then they get mad at him. I'm like, over. No. No. No. Over. No. And then Jason say, all right, no, go back to that button will and take it right. Yeah. Got on there about 80 yards. 30 yards this way. Yeah, no, he'd be saying it just way. Blue goes the left.

We're peeling back to layers of the onion now. Boom. Go back to the left. How long did Blue last in the blinds? Oh, he was... He was a while, man. Oh, a long time. And Phil loves that dog.

Still loves it. That's his boy. That's what we got. He loves that dog way more than he does any human around there. Other than Miss Kay. Other than Miss Kay. It's Miss Kay. Then Blue.

It's the hierarchy. That's it. The best one was Everybody else. The best one was Jay Fills some advice about making Blue better. He said, I figured out what's wrong.

Y'all and Phil said, what are you telling me? Wrong with what? Wrong with your dog? Yeah. You need to let him live in the house with y'all. Oh, well, let's get into that after we take this break.

That's going to be a good... That's a good looking out there. Yeah, yeah. All right, so I'm going to... I'm going to help Cy out with this one. Sy's right. Jace had a good idea of how to take some of the spunk out of blue. So instead of keeping him pinned up in the kennel,

which all the hunting dogs, by the way, live in a kennel pretty much. So you take them out, you let them run, you work them, you train them. And they look so forward to getting out doing that that they, when you take them hunting, they're ready to go. Okay. But this dog has so much pin up energy that we decided to let him be a house dog for a little while. Be a family dog. So, So I'll let you tell what happened.

Yeah. You know, they said, hey, you need to integrate him into being a family dog. That's right. Y'all, he'll play with the kids and, you know, and living in the house. And you know, and you feed him the scraps from the table and all this. and you just turn him into a loving, you know, chilled out dog. Yeah. First thing I'd have said.

Phil takes him home. You take him home. And look. Come on, Blue. And Blue runs in the house. Phil's clock the door. The first thing he does, he runs over on the couch, and there's pillows all over it where he just start just eating him, ripping him,

tearing him apart, throwing him everywhere. There's feathers everywhere. Then he went over there, hiked his leg and pissed on the other chair. just, y'all, runs in the bathroom or in the other room. Hey, hikes his legs and peas on that couch. He's back in the other bedroom and he's tearing up pillows in there, y'all. They put up with this for about two weeks. Like May Tobin.

No, no, the N.K. family just tells Phil. Blue ain't going to make sense of it. He said it's either me or the dog. Hey, you got two choices here. I'm either moving out or blue is moving out. Because he ain't no being this family. Oh, man. That sounds like Young Phil.

Oh, no, no, look. We hunted that day when we come in and I said, okay, what in the hell happened in that house? I said, y'all have a, did you and Phil invite families and have a pillow fight? Yeah. And he said, no, Blue had a field day all week. Yeah. He totally destroyed that house from one end to the other.

Just destroyed it. Got into those little dogs, dog food, just tumped everything over, ate every bit of it. It was, got into the pantry, got into the pantry and just ripped it. I ate everything that was edible. I wonder why he had bad gas. Kay always puts. Oh, that's funny. Y'all, she's got double things of sugar in the bag.

Double things of flour. Double everything. Well, hey, Blue found all that in the pantry. Oh, knock the flour bucket over. Hey, there's flower everywhere. Yeah. Oh, that's good. Oh, it was a tornado going to go through there.

Something tells me we may have waited a little late for that trick. Yeah. I don't know. You're going to have to do that one. They're real little. Yeah. To bring them up in the family. Oh, man.

That's good. That had been one of the best episodes of Duck Dynasty ever, a dog just running through the house. Just tearing everything. Another thing I forgot to tell you about, you had the P-Pas, you got the trail of P-Pads, but then there's little bitty bowls of dog food on every piece of furniture. And on the floor underneath. So you got a little bowl of dog food on the couch. You got one at the bottom of the couch.

You got a little bowl of dog food. And these folks about to end up on A&E on a completely different show. There's seven, eight bowls of dog food, so the little puppies have access to food at all times. That's dumb. They got bellies. Yeah, pot bellies. Yeah, swole up.

Yeah. Because you got a thing, okay, you got two, BB and Bobo. Yeah. Then you got freaking sneaky. Yeah. You know, who, that's another one. No, that was Bobo. He passed away.

Oh, okay. He got a UPS man got him. Then whenever you would. okay that's what happened him yeah he got delivered to heaven oh I know my UPS yeah

yeah oh man but no that dog Bobbo made UPS took him in heaven but you know Kay has a good system

when one of them dies you just buy another one give him the same name he never dies yeah and you don't ever have to think of another name yeah

just hey Bobo well it started as Jesse. Jesse Bobo. And then Jesse Bobo because Jesse didn't die when we thought he was going to.

Yeah. So Jesse was still around so you couldn't be saying Jesse, Jesse, Jesse. What was the little female's name? JJ. JJ. Then you had thunder.

The only thing about them two was, okay, they could both catch the squirrel. And snakes. And snake. Oh, yeah. Mean on snake. Both of them would catch them.

Okay. Bobo would kill the squirrel. And the snake. And the snake. Jay J.J. if you just catch them and play with them, let them go. Now, I have witness, Bobo kill a cotton mouth. I'm talking about a good size cotton.

Oh, yeah. They're at Terriers or something now. They're feisty. He'd wait. He was like a Tasmanian devil. Yeah. He'd wait until that snake got just the right spot, and he'd grab him by the back of the head and shake him violently.

Try to get that squeaker out of it. And then let him go. And that snake would strike at him, and Bobo would pull back. It was impressive. Yeah. He would finally do that so many times. he'd kill it.

That's right. That's how he killed him. Now, hey, you've got to be pretty quick. But he was immune to the cotton mouth venom. Yeah, he done got bit. Yeah. So many times. Oh, no, built up an immunity.

Hey, we had a big weedomire. Mamie was her name growing up. I'm a Rainer. Yeah. And look, hey, she would come home, okay, where she had run up on a big cotton mouth, and like a softball was pretty good size. Mm-hmm.

Yeah. She had had four or five nuts on her neck. where that snake it had bitter and it swell up. Yeah. But she wasn't, hey, no. Didn't even bother her. Hey, every time he survived, when you get a little bit stronger.

That's it. It doesn't kill you. I actually watched Phil kill a copper head. And all he had to do it was was, Kay had a hole that she was planting tomato plants with. Well, he just chopped that snake up in a body. It wasn't about that long. And he's chopped up about 12, 15 pieces.

And the head, look, the head was about that long. Well, here comes Bobo Run out there And he just stuck his nose Down to smell it Well, when he did, the snake just said Just right there You know, he shook it off

And I'm talking about immediately He took two or three steps and just He down And I said, he's dead Nope, he laid down A few minutes got up Here he goes, he's good to go you gotta think about that though

it ain't that much left of the head and that thunker bit him I'll tell you what Bobo wouldn't do though I went down there one day I walked past that that trailer on stilts and I heard and I backed up

and I looked and it was a rattlesnade I'm talking about a goodn a goodn as big as your forearm down where down there behind the loft that trailer on stilts

Well, we used to hang all the decoys. Yeah, okay. But then them dogs come out, and Bobo come out, and they had that thing surrounded. There was about four dogs. Well, three of them were in there pretty tight. Bobo was back. He's a general. Yeah, he was back a couple feet from the other dogs.

And he looked at that rattlesnake, and he'd look at me. He looked at that rattlesnone. I was wondering if he was going to do that big rattler, what he does those cotton mouths. Nope. He backed off of that one. So I went and got the 20 gauge, shot his head off. And then, as soon as I shot it, Bobo dove in on it. I got you now.

I got a video of it. I'll send that video to you. Please. But hey, he wouldn't mess with him. No, he knew better. Too big. That rattlesnake reached him. Oh, yeah.

Oh. That was a problem. Them cotton mouse don't get that long. They got a pretty short strike distance. That rattlesnake gets you. old Bobbo's slick now the other thing he didn't like was a Gibson I wish I'd ask you know yeah he bit Jimmy Red every time he walked in there no no no well they was always treating mistreatment yeah well Phil got me bit one day by him

Phil said hey go in there take your hat cover your face just walk toward him I took my hat I took my hat and put it over my face that's a good dog and I just started walking towards Bobo he was up on that chair and Bobo got and I'm like Phil he said no keep walking and I get a little closer he'd get a little louder you get within about six feet

I found out that's a magic number that's his comfort space when I got to six feet down off that chair and he done bit me in the butt so fast I didn't know what happened then I took my hat off and he saw it with me and he just wagging his tail just and who old pet me I was like god oh no no no no

no look I'm so excited I hadn't got it yet I was a start way, Martin. He liked to bit me one day. I jump back. You can hear him teeth click. Oh, yeah. He bounced off that chair and bit me right on the butt. And then when he saw it was me, look at old Bobo go. Look at it. Hey, a guy I play poker with. That is a huge snake. Oh, it's a big old rattlesnake. Look here. A guy I play poker with, he took a picture of one somewhere

on the pipeline. So you see that side? Yeah, I see it. Look, hey, this snake was this big around and seven foot long rattlesnake. Good, grief. Just unreal. Look at it. He's proud. Look at it. He's happy.

That's a picture right there. That's all you need to know about Bobo right there. Somebody needs to save that. Oh, you save that and print it out and give it to case. You'll ball crying. Oh, yeah. Print that out, Johnny Duke. Oh, that is wonderful.

Yeah, screen grab out and give it to case. You'll ball crying. Well, he was never happier than when he was killing a snake. Look at him, trying to get that squeaker out. He don't like them now. He didn't like them. That is. Well, let's take our last break.

We'll be back right after this. Oh, Bobo. Boy, he was a mean. They don't like him, boys. They don't like them. He was a mean, little rascal. Yeah, he was. He didn't like that.

He had a mean streak in him. He didn't like snakes. But he was never mean. His mean always had an intention. It wasn't ever. He wasn't just mean to be mean. But, boy, if you covered your face and walked towards that chair. Oh, yeah.

He's going to start growling. You've got six feet. He's about to get bit. You like a good guard dog. I never thought my dog. That tells you Phil's personality. Phil knew what was going to happen to me. Yeah.

And Phil just sitting back laughing. And it got worse if Phil was in the chair with him. Oh, yeah. You need a good, first line of defense is the dog. He'll be right beside Phil's face. Mm-hmm. And Phil's saying, get him, Bobo. Get him, Bobo.

Get him, Bobo. I mean, Phil had that old beaver pelt And he'd walk in there with that beaver pelt over his face And he wouldn't nothing but his eyes showing And when Bobo saw him, he He would, man And he'll get, yeah

You walk in there with your hat over your face Oh, he'd bite you. He'd bite you. Because he'd like to bit me. Oh, he'd like Martin'sale once you put it down He'd be wiggling his tail. Oh, yeah, he'd jump up in the couch. Oh, oh, buddy is you up your hair.

Yeah, it's you, friend. Yeah. Oh, we got to show this one too. Uh-oh. We got another Bobo. One more. All right. You got your air drop on.

This is one more in memory of Bobo. One more in memory of Bobo. It's coming. Except. You're going to need volume on this one. Volume on this one. Snake, boys. Snake killer.

Turn the volume up. This one's on the couch. Yeah. This one's inside on the couch here. Oh, Bobo. Oh, Bobo and Burley. Rest in peace. There's Burley.

Here we go. here. Yep. That's it. That's it. You're about to get bit. So Phil, we just proved the beaver pelt story. I told you, though, you saw when Phil got within six feet.

He off the couch, he comes. He had a six-foot halo around him, but you got inside there. Big man. He's coming. And he's coming hard. Unless he's Jimmy Redd. That's right. If Jimmy Red, you walk through the door, you get bit.

He's walking in the door. You're getting bit. Didn't have to do nothing. Just come in there. Phil says he can sense an evil. That's the Jesus in him, boys. He knows evil. All right.

Well, Johnny Dee. Oh, my goodness. What's in that hello at duck call room in? What will be? got in there. So a really long time ago, we announced that a lady named Reagan was having a baby to her friends. They had the baby. Did it? So congratulations. And they had a question for you, though, Martin. I don't know yet. Baby's healthy. No, no, you do know this. Baby's healthy, so congratulations, but they wanted to know, and this is Caroline's emailing in, her Reagan's friend.

They were curious, what advice are you tired of hearing? Sleep while you can. I'm smart enough to know that. Like, oh, you better be sleeping right now. You don't say, really? Yeah, because you just get inundated with advice. Yeah, I haven't had a lot of people give me much advice other than sleep. Because, I mean, obviously I'm not the caretaker. Like, you know, because we're going to do the whole breastfeeding thing and all that.

So I'm going to do everything I can. I'm going to keep mama fed, you know, hydrated. I'm going to do everything I can in support, but they're just saying a lot in the first month or so that I'm going necessarily be able to do. I mean, I'll change them, bathe them, all that stuff. I'm cool with that. Like, you know, just like stoned.

I've been pee-pass and everything. I've cleaned up dog crap my whole life. What's the difference in human crap? Ain't no big deal. Like, you know, just wipe it up and go on. Like, somebody did it for me. So, you know, I'm not, I'm not averse to that. Like, there's no aversion to it for me.

So I don't, you know. But then, I don't know, and enjoy it. I mean, I think that is probably something that is probably a good advice. Make sure you enjoy the season of whatever you're in, whether they're infants or, you know, that's the two big advice that they've given me as a father. So, you know, but I don't, I mean, I don't know. Brittany's got a whole list of things. I mean, it's wild, but that's why.

Brittany kind of scary right now. Yeah, yeah. I was from a place of love. It does. But I was here the other day and I said, hey, baby. Yeah, no. She's over that. She's officially.

Well, deserved. She's officially, I don't want to be pregnant, but I don't want them out of me either. So she's like, I need to go back to like two months ago. Like, this was a lot cooler. Welcome to the twilight zone. Yeah. She's like, it's a lot cooler two months ago than it is right now. Okay.

Well, that was there. But congratulations on the baby. Absolutely. The baby's name is Pepper, by the way, which I think is a really cool number. Pepper? Pepper? And we don't know your kids' names yet. No, I'm on strict orders.

Nobody knows it. Yeah. But they were also wondering what some weird baby names we've heard are. And my wife wouldn't let me name my kid Tiger. Because that was going to be awesome. You were going to be Tiger. Oh, and there's already a tiger. Man, that'd be a hard, hard shoes to feel there.

Not from a moral standpoint. Zing! I just thought it was a cool name. Oh. Oh, no, there's been some wild ones. I don't know. I mean, they're just... Are you going wild?

Mm-mm. Standard rigs? Straight down the middle. There you go. Straight down the middle. Don't get crazy with it. Don't get crazy. No, no, no, no phantom y's or X's or...

You ain't throwing a Z on the end of bin? No. As my wife's idea, no. Oh, that's kind of cool. The ones in the middle. Oh. Where you replace CKs with stuff and like, I'm like, or O's with, I'm like, no. Come on.

With A-U's? Yeah. Or I, you're like, no. You know, E-A-U-X. That's fine if you want to do it with go, but not Bo. Leave it B-O. Kindergarten going to be hard enough for the kid. In our family, you've got to be careful what you name your kids because you have the willy factor.

There's a nickname coming. You've got to be real careful because if you name your kid something, there's going to be a nickname. And you want it to be a decent one. A willy factor. If you wanted to be a decent nickname. When Sadie and Christian had honey, she told Willie, she said, you better not call her honey boo-boo. I bet he does every time he's alone.

My favorite Willie nickname is the John Luke's kid that's always all smocked up. Oh, Smocky McSmockerton. Smockingtonville. Yeah. And that's his own grandson. Every time that kid comes to the door. So if you think you get offended by nicknames from Willie, you could be his grandson. Smokky McSmuckerson.

His son-in-law named him butt-cut. Put-ut-smoky-Mix-Mut. Yeah, that's a good one. He parted right down the middle. Oh. Oh, that's a good one. He still calls him that. I call him that, too.

It's just a good nickname. And then I'm really confused about this email. All right. I've never heard this story, but he wants to hear it from side. Ram! That's a good name. from Gonzales, Texas. He was wondering if Uncle Sondon could tell the story of the time he was bitten by a half-dead squirrel?

Is that, what are you bitten by a half-dead squirrel? No, he wasn't half-dead. Sound like he's half alive to me. I know, I had a pet squirrel. Okay, and I'd always take him out of the cage to be petting him. Yeah. Well, one day I was petting him like that and then it's, ah, ah! This sucker, look, if you don't know.

know about squirrel. A squirrel's teeth, the bottom one's come inside and the top one's come over the top. Mm-hmm. Well, hey, he had me right here. Oh, he had you peen. Oh, yeah. Okay, and

blood is going everywhere. So, I'm looking and trying to, I'm trying to get him to open his mouth. So I fired just got my thumb and index finger on his jaws and just, and I mean, I,

Hey, you saw him with some blood coming out to end. Well, hey, when I got, I threw him up in a little old Chinaberry tree. My big dog is in the pen. So I walk over to the pen and unlast the dog and let the dog out. Okay, and then I get me a long stick that I can break that cherry, you know, cherry tree limb off with. Because he's up there on the little one and break it off, and the dog gets him. And does what he's supposed to do. I said, how do you like being bit?

I didn't like it. Ram, thank you. I didn't know this was the story. Why do all of the stories end up like that? He went half dead until the dog got done with it. Oh, no, no, no, look. I bled like a pig for 30 minutes. I couldn't get the sucker to shut off.

There was blood going everywhere. I knew that. That's one thing you don't have. want to do. Johnny, Rich over over and bite you. Johnny,

reach over and bites, I just want to see what happened. Oh, no. Uh-oh. That looked like a hum moment. Oh, I ain't going to tell it.

I ain't going to tell it. I ain't going to tell it. It'd be too much. Oh, man. The folks couldn't handle it. I ain't going to tell it. That sounds like a story from back in the day.

It sounds like a story before we do ads. I like this. It's good. Oh, man. That was awesome. A biting dog. or biting squirrel biting squirrel.

How you like getting bit. Yeah, how you like it. He didn't like it. What kind of squirrel was it? Cat squirrel. Cat squirrel. That sucker bit me. You know what I mean.

You tell him what painful. Mm-hmm. I mean, it literally just, I thought he had, you know, he hit a nerve and he just, I was afraid I was going to be a paraplegic for a while. For my finger bite. Hey, hey, look, I'm telling you, he froze me, boys. When he bit me.

He locked him up. Locked him up. Like Gobwin getting in a cold shower. Yeah, like Gobwin's hot water heater going out. Oh, hey, that squirrel locked me up. Hey, I never forget that day, Galvin. I thought he was dead. He said, I'm going to lock up now.

He's in a shower beside me. And that hot water heater went out. I was like, oh, that's cold. I was like, boy, that's cold. I reached over there on Galvin's side and I turned the shower off on him. I mean, he couldn't move. The last thing he was going to do was go up there closer to it. It locked him up, baby.

That's good stuff, man. J.D., send us out of here. What we got? All right, I got a Bible verse that I'm going to do real quick that I lost. It is about an animal. Oh. Lion or the lamb? Oh, the life of his beast.

Wait, that's a weird version. New International version. Proverbs 1210, the righteous care for the needs of their animals, but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel. So care for the needs of your animal. But if they bite you, game on.

Hey, before we go, too, can I say something real quick? About our boy, Zach? Stephen? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Hey, if y'all can just throw some prayers up, if you watch Duck Dynasty, you saw the Swede, and that is one of our good friends from a long time.

He was in a terrible motorcycle accident, lost his leg, but he's in great spirits. He lives in Texas now. So if you could just throw some prayers up for my man, that'd be super appreciated. And in typical Zach fashion, what do he say when he woke up and I told him? He said, man, I had big plans for this leg. So he's still making jokes and we love him. He doesn't work at Duck Commander, obviously.

He did for a minute there. Yeah, he did for a while. But just throw some prayers out for that guy and his family. Yeah, because he got four young. Yeah, four kids. He's a carpenter. He can build you anything. But he's over in Texas now and just a terrible accident.

But he's in great spirits and it's typical swede fashion, if you will. But we love that guy and I just thought I'd throw that out there right at the end. Yeah, absolutely. All right. We'll see y'all next time right here in the bell call room. We're out.
