All right, boys, here's what we're going to start off with. Uh-oh. All right. Okay. And then when we give our Bible verse, then it'll all make sense. Well, go ahead, director. Where are you starting? Here is the thing.

Are we rolling? I guess. Yeah. I don't know. As I said, we were starting. Buckle up. How important is it when you get up in the morning to, hey, put this in your home box, okay, your brain pan. And say, as far as this concerned with me today, I'm just going to try to do what is right in

every circumstance. That's a pretty good policy. No, no, it is. I like it. Yeah. As far as it concerns, the world. Okay, what I'm going to do is, in every circumstance I find myself in, I'm going to do what's right. And it'll become clear when we read the Bible verse.

That's interesting. I got it already flipped open up there, JD. I'm looking at it. He's done a little research. We're in a good book of Proverbs. I had him a long week. Long weekend. He had him a long layover.

Yeah, he spent a lot of time in that Houston airport. Oh, I hate to go to Houston. I really do. And I love Texas. Yeah. But, hey, I hate Houston. Oh, well, that George Bush Airport is awful. Well, I-A-H.

You have to walk after you get off a plane at least two miles to get to your next spot when you go get on another one. That goes for most of them, but that point, that point, places like Hotel California, man. Well, I know, but no, not that bad. Atlanta's got the, what, uh, automation things? The tram. Yeah. Well, that and the stairs.

No, hey, they ain't got enough. Houston has an escalator, though. I guess Bush was trying to save his money when he was in there. Okay. Hey, they didn't put out enough of them. Can I tell you my general rule, though? In the summertime, you never fly in the afternoons. Oh, I.

Because all the airports that you have to go through to get here are a hot spot for thunderstorms in the afternoon. Yeah, and I know this. And Monroe is on the bottom of the list. Oh, yeah, they just soon as walk on. All airports. They just soon us walk home. When I got that text last night that you had been to Houston for five hours, I was like, you could have been home. Oh, I mean, you realize.

Well, here's the thing that gets me. It's like when you're on the highway. and you know here's the traffic jam and you're slow and slow well you're you're expecting to come up on an accident a big scene where there's 10 car wrecks and all this and there's EOMTs and all kind of stuff no it ain't never happen it's just some idiot okay in front of everybody driving slow and he won't get over when me and I say go on fishing trips or whatever that always happens we get it we get in a traffic jail on the interstate and I said I'll say there must have been a wreck no it

side I say, nope, just an idiot. I said, it's an idiot. It's an idiot up front somewhere. Somebody stopped at a yield sign. Y'all, hey, as soon as we get up there, look, the other day was somewhere, okay, come back for a fish trip, and look, you know what caused it? A chicken? This is, no, this is for two hours.

Oh, yeah, we was there two hours. We've got a wrecker, and he didn't even got a vehicle, but he's got caution lights blinking. And everybody, they were scared of death to go around him. Oh hey they call they cause a traffic jail Well look boys I'm gonna have to apologize in advance here Did you cut win? No well I'm going to I'm going to about an hour hour ago I had a big plate of

Barbecue beans and some smoked ribs So I'm gonna apologize in advance I had some smoked ribs I had a warning boys Oh did you? Yeah my dad cooked ribs while I was out of town And I got to sleep in the Dallas airport last night Everybody cooked ribs I was out of town So I ate some leftover ribs as soon as I got home. So let me explain how the rib cooking goes when I do it

because it's the final product. It's a long drawn that process. It is to me a baby back ribs smoke to perfection where it just pulls off that bone instead of you don't want to fall off the bone. You want to pull. Too tender. Pull off the bone. That's what I feel.

That's what I feel. You're on them. You're on them, boys. They're two-tenthers. I made a rack of ribs one time, but they were just falling off the bone. You pick up the bone of meat come off of it. He said, nope, too tender. No good.

No good. You got have a little tug to your ribs. Oh, that's right. Oh, I agree. But the fact that his argument was too tender. That's never an argument that you can make. No. That meets two tender.

Yeah, the next thing you're going to hear you're talking about, nope, that was just a little bit too good. Too juicy. Too juicy. Too tinder. Too smoky. I've had people tell me. Everything was too right.

Too smoky. That's, I don't, no. Somebody sent some shrimp down to Phil one time. He looked down and goes, nope, too big. Too big. And I was like, no, no, no. Hey, look, I've ate shrimp all over the world.

Okay. I used to. I used to. But hey, nope, can't eat it anymore. Why? Because when, hey, when Phil fries shrimp, they're delicious. Okay. Oh, they are.

Everybody else? Well, they fry. They fry them too long. Yeah. Well, they ain't no good. And like some of that, you get them like 16th shrimp, the big ones, the combo, the combo, rom-zomba, or jumbo. Jombo. Jombos.

Jumbo. Jumbo. Jumbo. I'm not. But anyway, the big ones, they're not good. That's, get the little bitty one boy. So anyway, I smoked them for two hours. And they call it the 2-21 method.

Smoke them for two hours with you rub and everything. Uncovered. Uncovered. Okay. Bone down. Yep. Okay, bone down. Then you wrap them in full with some butter.

Uh-oh. Meat down for two more hours. I throw some of your pick-a-pepper sauce in there, too. Pick a pepper, that pick-a-pecker and our tiger sauce. Either one of you. And what that is is that. And a little brown sugar. When you wrap it in tin foil, that's letting it breathe.

No, no. No, that ain't letting it breathe. Yeah, you breathe it for two hours. Man, you breathe it for 15 minutes. No, he's in a casket. He's in a tin-foil casket at that point. He's steaming. Yeah.

It's called the Texas crutch is what they call it. The Texas Crunch? Crutch. Crutch. That's for everybody that don't know how to cook them straight over the fire. That's right. Or don't have time to. Oh,

right. Exactly. So then I do that two hours. Then the last stage, you take them out of the full, flip them back over it. You got to be real easy because when they come out of that full. The molten lava will get all over you, won't it? And they'll fall apart too. And then if you want to put a glaze on them, I'll put a little glaze on them.

And then let them tighten back up for about 30, 40, 40. 45 minutes. If you can stand it. If you can stand sitting there looking at them. That's the hardest part of ribs. That last hour is the hardest part of the ribs. I told you it was a long drawn-out process. I know that because I've been more about when he's doing it.

Five hours. It's the definition of patience is a virtue because when you uncover them with full and put them back on it, they're ready then. Oh, yeah. And you just, now you're looking for a color you like. I sit there and look at them and I'm like, I got to find something to do for an hour because if I stay around here, they only going to be on there about 10. minutes for my ice good. There's only one problem. Once he says, okay, let's eat. Okay. I eat way too many of them. And then that night, men, the ribs wrestle all night long. So I get on that meat sweats. No, no. I'm saying it's rough, too. I've had the meat sweats. Because you can't put them down. You can't put them down. Because hey, you just pick it up and it falls off and you just take it. Been there. You know, and you just keep picking it up and letting the fall let the meat fall and then pick it and put in your mouth. Pick it up. That fall put it in your mouth.

Well, by the time you get through, that night you just, oh, good grief. This is killing me. I got to quit going over the stones when he's cooking ribs. They are good. Especially you pour two gallons of unsweet tea on top of them. That's a rough combo. Oh, no, look, that's help. That helps.

It makes me get out of bed and go to the restroom for crying that loud. That's kind of a break. It's equivalent to like the fatty end of the brisket. that I can sit there and just keep eating and eating. Well, most people don't, yeah, most people don't do that right. You don't want it real thick. What's that, the fat? The fat.

Yeah, you got to want it, when you put it on the fire, if it don't crankle it up and give it a little crusty. Yeah. Some calls it bark. It's got to have the bark on it. Oh, yeah, you want to skinning. I mean, that's all you want. That brisket, he's a 24-hour.

That's all day. Oh, yeah, yeah, that's the one of them, yeah. You put him on there and you go. to bed. And then wake up the next morning. Yeah. And go out there and say, okay, let me put a little glazed on it and then we'll eat it. And then go about your day and then come back.

Yeah. Yeah. And you can eat it. That's right. Then, hey, you do it that way? You eat it in morning. Make it briffice. But I was. Breakfast brisket, boys. Breakfast tacos. You are in rare form.

You need a cup of coffee? Well, I could use one. You get one on the first break? Yeah, I'll get Jay. Well, let's go get that man a cup of coffee. We'll be back right after this. Creamy sugar, J.D. cream and sugar.

I don't care what these boys say about you. You still a good man in my book. Yes. Half a cup. Half a cup. Gramey shirt. All right, look, springtime is here. It's warming up.

You know 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, baby. Ain't it good? It's so good. It's 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 Tritails beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Triedales comes from a family ranch out in Texas. They're a fifth generation American ranch. So they've been at it for a while. Now, look, the beef comes straight from their ranch and other ranchers they work with who raise cattle the same way.

Their steaks are properly aged and shipped straight from the ranch to your door. We threw a couple of ribbys on the grill. look salt pepper garlic hot fire that's all you need look because i 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 try tails beef i know in size case christine loves it which is just a uh she doesn't eat me yeah just go to try beef dot com slash that's try beef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. I mean that's the way Phil will be.

I'm going to drink a little bit of it. Well, I was wondering. It kind of grows on you. I kept putting more creamer in it to make it a little lighter because it was so dark. I couldn't figure out. Now, Phil. Just trying to get size of hard going. Phil would love that.

Oh, yeah. Hey, that's his coffee. Okay. Anytime you have to chase your coffee with tea, that's a pretty good cup of chocolate. I drank a cup of field's coffee this morning, and I got, I started getting the rigors sitting, sitting on the couch. I was just shaking like a leaf. Hey, I'm talking about a big cup. Mug, the mug.

Okay. I'd put about that much in the bottom and then fill it up with hot water, the rest of it. And it'd be good coffee. Yeah. He drinks oil, motor oil. Burnt, burnt motor oil. Oh, I know it. Oh, he'll get that stuff.

Whoa. And where it's so thick. Oh, no. It just leaves a residue in your mouth. No, no, he does that. He does that. He does that. He had that Ford, I think it was a Ford Fairline.

Well, Faralline line, whatever it is. But anyway, Ford Fair. He never did. Hey, he never did. Hey, the thing was still just burned rubber. But, hey, he said, hey, you need to check the oil on that from me. you know so i went out there it ain't oil there's coffee no no hey he had it was grease the dipstick you just pull it out and just you know you'd have you'd have a ball of grease

or your head stick it back in hi ain't ever changed he ain't never changed all he just packed the fill of grease then the last thing you wanted to do was put new oil in it because that oh no no hey it blew up yeah it'd blow up you put oil in it yeah because hey no no one no oil yeah Okay, they had to take the valve colors off To do something, check something So solid grease Yeah I mean, it wasn't nowhere

Everything was just greased down He had burnt that oil Oh no And look, it still run good Stupid thing run good And it would have ran good Until you change the oil It's just like a transmission

If you don't stay up to date on transmission If you don't change it every Whatever 30,000 months Then don't change it at all Because the minute you change the transmission flu, that sucker's going out. Hey, that must be what happened to my Chevrolet there. Yeah. Because, hey, I was going on and fine, about 60,000 miles blew up.

And I'd put it in the shop because they said it was time to service it. You went 60,000 miles before you changed the oil? No, transmission. Oh, no, every time it, all the time, that truck's been in every time. I babysied that thing. Oh, yeah. Now, I did put my... Everything except they accelerator.

Oh, no, no, no, I did put my foot in the car. quite frequently. But, hey, that's what it's, hey, that's what a V8 made for. It's hey, you know, squall, a squall, boy. So what did you do this weekend, Sigh? I went to Indiana for an event. They have it every year. How was it?

It was good. We run 1,800 through the first service, and then 1,700 through the 2nd service, and 50 people, you know, came to either accept Christ, You know, are, you know, rededicate. So we got 50 new brothers and sisters. Yeah. So it was really good.

That's good. It was a good event. Well, what else do you do while you use there? You already told me one thing you did. Well, hey, we went to the track, okay, and they had the guy told me what he did. Anyway, car dealers, they bring all their cars to the track. And then the, I guess the owners get to actually drive them. And that Indianapolis has got three tracks.

and we was on the Grand Prix, you know, and that's all, that's all of them quick turns. I'm talking about 90 degrees, and then come out at 45, and just a small stretch, okay, straight stretch. But we did get 140 anyway. Hey, you were driving? Oh, no, no, Tony was, and hey, Tony, I'm buckled down with seatbelts. Tony Stewart?

No, I don't know his last name. Shout out to Tony. He had them pedals on the steering wheel. He held gear up and gear down. And, hey, he was doing that quite freezing with you. I mean, when he hit the brakes, it was, and then just, and hey, he's just slumming me against the east. Door from one side to other, I'm like this just the whole time.

He said, you're all right? I'm not laughing saying, yeah, I'm going to go. Fired up and let them horses. Oh, no, hey, now them carvettes, brand-new corvettes would run. Would they? Yeah, 495 horsepower. Okay. Not electric, though.

No. No, no. Gas burners. No, this has got an engine in the back. Oh. You know, and I mean a big one. Yeah. 495 horsepower.

The engine's in the back? Oh, yeah. Yeah. He showed me. He said, popped the hood on front. See what's that in there. Popped the hood. It was about a two-foot square where you could put a bag, the little one.

That was all up in front, yeah. The back of it, though, and it was convertible, no less. I sat down and then, and they took a picture of me in the car. and then the guy got out and he said, let me have it. Remote control. You know, he hit a couple buttons, you know. The back flipped open, you know, where the engine is, but you can't see the engine.

It's underneath some kind of deal. But, hey, the convertible comes up, you know, collapses down, folds about three times, and then lays flat. Then the other thing comes back down. You're in a convertible now. There you go. Pretty cool. Hey.

Problems. Starting a price. 99. That's it? 59. Yeah, it was actually a good price. I'm a 60. Yeah, that ain't bad.

For a new Corvette? For a brand new one. Why didn't you buy you one? Or two of them. Hey, I don't need a Carvette. Will you can buy him one, though. And if he wants to buy me one, I'll take it. Well, it's more of a BMW, man.

That was a short-year-face. That had a Corvette leave that BMW sitting in the, you know, starting blocks. Now, that'd be a race I'd like to see. Just that. American versus German. The Germans. The Germans. We won the big one.

We might as well win the race too. We won the big one. We won the big one. We'll run the race too. Y'all can have soccer. We'll take the other. We're undefeated till this point, he said. Oh, Lord, have mercy.

That's funny. Well, I've been, uh, it's been that time of year where the river finally got off the property. So I've been going down the fields and, uh, been working the land. for the past few days. All the women, they all, all of my family, they all loaded up, went to the beach. You didn't go with them?

I did not. Oh, I know you hate that. Oh, it hurts my feelings. But the reason why I stumbled upon the ultimate excuse not to go. Because we go to the beach, the whole family, Jace, Willie didn't go this year either, which is another reason I didn't go. The fun, wasn't they?

The fun, it ain't near as fun without, with it. So the whole family goes every year with Jason's family, owls, Jep, Jeff and Jessica and all them down there. But this year, I had a nice little injury at school the other night. And they diagnosed it as a torn intercostal. Are you familiar with that? I know where that bustle is, and I can't imagine it tearing. Intercostal.

Anytime I get to wear a torn, I get nervous. That hurt. That's right there. It did not tear all the way. And it goes around your back and attaches to your spine. When it happened, I thought I cracked a rib. That's how painful was. That's why when I found out, he got talking about his injury, I said, I didn't crack a rib.

I said, I tore just what you. I popped, just what you pop. When he's getting that Coke out of the ice tip. Oh, my bad. That makes it much better. Oh, yeah. Lifting the lid on a Yetty. I heard the pop.

It sounds like 22 rival. And they said, what was that shot? And I said, it's the shot, it's me. And this was what he was in good health. Oh, yeah. I heard it. I'll never forget it. I heard it.

It was a pop. But I heard that same pop. Two weeks ago, I was training and it injured. I thought, oh, boy, that's rough. So I kept rolling around there for a little bit. And I'm like, no, I ain't going to make it. So it started feeling better about four days later. So I'm walking to the church.

truck and a big sneeze hits me. Oh, bad news coming. And son, I'll tell you, I went through the ground. I went to, when I sneezed, I heard that same pop. I heard when sighed, re-picked that ice chest and sneed up. And when I sneezed, I went down to my knees. The pain was, it was like somebody had a knife in my side. Now, here's my question.

What? Did you go to the doctor immediately? No. Have you been to the doctor yet? No, because, no, I have not. The orders I got, not orders, but Phil does have a point. Phil told me that he does not go to the doctor unless he's bleeding from an orifice. So he said if you got blood coming out of a hole, then you go to the doctor.

Anything else? Does it have to be a new hole or can it be an existing? No, it doesn't matter. I guess a new hole would be even worse, I would think. Well, no, because when I did it, my wife, kept telling me, okay, hey, go to the doctor, you know, and I said, well, all they'll do is, I think I'll crack the rib, you know, crack the rib, I said, they'll just, you know, put a band-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-sand-a. You don't want to do that. Yeah, and I said, I don't, you know,

I can do that myself. Well, you don't want to do that. Well, hey, hey, but three days, I walked around, and every time I moved wrong, or if I coughed or sneezed, it was just like, just come up and stab me. Okay. And look, in the fire of my wife, she'll I said, hey, I'm tired of hearing you, you whine, get in the car, I'm taking you to the doctor. Well, as soon as you got in there, you know, said, what's wrong? I said, well, I said, oh, okay, you know, the doctor said, hey, so-and-so a nurse, you know, go get a shot.

Turns out it's a five-to-eight-eight-week recovery. That's why I asked you why he said, you know, they got a shot the doctors will do, they will pop you in the behind, and all that pain will go away. You know what you call that? steroid. Well, hey, I don't know what it was, but hey. I do. Steroids. I fought the pain for three days. The doctor told the nurse, go ahead.

She dropped your door, pow. So hold on now. Are you admitting that there is some merit to steroids right here? Oh, no, no, no. Yeah. Okay. Anything that will get rid of pain that quick, I volunteer. Okay, because being pain, my tons of pain, is zip. But hey, I walked around for three days just,

every time I got stabbed, and I said, I told my wife, I said, hey, do not let me be that stupid ever again. And here you are. I said, hey, knock me in the head and take me to the doctor and tell me, hey, pop him what's dead. But I guarantee you that that's what happened to you.

You tore it. It's just a little muscle that goes from your chest to your spine. Hey, yeah, just wraps around. Kind of like that ace band, as you were talking about. Oh, no, no,

no, there's a muscle way that does that. Yeah, but here's the thing. He's really good to eat off of a cow, you don't want to do that. Oh,

I bet that is it. Okay, yeah. That's part of you flanking and all that. In between those. Yeah, this is one of the things do not do this.

That's right. Okay, because no. Oh, look. You have a pain. Well, before we head to another break,

look, you're listening to the duck call room. If you're joining us on YouTube, make sure you like and subscribe at YouTube. com slash duck call room. That's all one word. Make sure you hit that bell side.

Just a, there it is. That way we'll know when new episodes release. And look, if you're listening on Apple Podcasts, be sure to leave us a rating and review. That way we can still have a job, and your friends will know where to find us. So without further ado, let's take another break. We'll be back right after this.

So I had this injury. Now, the only thing halfway fun that happens at the beach is we play golf and I go fishing. I do that surf fishing, but you got those big spinning rigs. You walk out into the ocean. You reach way back and cast it as far as you can. Well, a big weight on the end. Right, with a big, and it's fun.

I enjoy it. And something I can't do here, obviously. So I can't cast a pole because of my injury. I can't swing a golf club because of that injury. You was going to be on house, too. So I was just going to be sitting there looking at the, looking at the water. Yeah.

And sitting in everybody else's saying that they're right here. All the kids running around, you know, it's just a lot of humans being loud. So. Can't even slam a domino. Yeah. So I had the perfect excuse to get out of it this time.

Yeah, I'm not going. So I stayed put at the house and me and Phil been hanging out, riding around on tractors and whatnot. It's pretty good, pretty good little. Yeah, because the last place you're going to find Phil,

Robertson is on a beach at the ocean. Yeah. Because he calls it the trip to H-E-L-L. You go down there, you lay in sand, okay, they get to everywhere, okay, and you're looking at water and you can't drink it because it'll kill you. Yeah. You forgot one key thing he always says, but I'm not going to bring it up. I don't know what he says.

I just know, he says, I ain't going. He says, oh, yeah. What's he say? Here's his exact lie. They say, go down there, you're hot. You got sand that gets in every orifice of your body. You're surrounded by half-necked women. And you're sitting there staring at water, you can't drink.

He said, if that ain't hell, I don't know what is. That's exactly what he says. That's my idea of hell here on this earth. The beach is no place for him. Now, a sandbar on the river, he can get down to that. He can get down to a sandbar on the river. Come with that. You can walk up and cut your little willer.

sticking in the sandbar, you know, get you some nylon line, some hooks and some, you know, brick, bathe it up with perch and throw it out there in that river, and then I'm watching the see that, that will go in the water. Then you run up and grab that line and pull them in. Either a big old 30-pound off or a big old 30-pound blue. One you keep. Then have a fish fry, boys. One you keep, one you chuck back.

That's right. That's right. Throw the blue back and keep the fall. They're better if they're about 10 pounds. Oh, my goodness. 10 pounds, that's the ultimate? I'm doing something this year I've never done. Maybe one of the listeners can help me out with it.

Uh-oh. I'm planting rice in water. In the backwater. See, the river's up, so we got some backwater. I've been told, let it get down to about two or three inches. So your seed. Muck. Let it sit for about four or five days and then pull the water off of it.

So I'm going to try it. What is this? Is this on the new 400? No, no, no. No, it's on the lake and the lane. The lake and the lane. The deeper. Hey, wow.

I like it. I like it. Yeah. Sounds like a water to me, boys. If you get a good crop, them woodies are to send on it. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Hey, we had that in the privy hole one year, okay? We never seen a mallard duck line in it. But, hey, it's solid rice. But, hey, Woody's come in there by the thousands. Oh, yeah, I got in on that. Yeah. That was fun. Hey, look, it ain't anything wrong with Woody.

Especially. Stone doesn't go where, hey, well, he can fix the Woody's up, and you'd think you're eating filet mignon. Especially now that you can kill three of them, too. That's pretty good hunt. Oh, three ducks a day? No, no, Jayce used to wood gold, and he'd say,

quit shooting the woodies. I said, Jay's, hey, it's seven of us in the blind, son. Do you multiplication. Seven times three is how many? 21. That's a duck hunt, Jack. That's a good duck hunt. And a good duck hunt.

be nervous when he paused on 20. I was like, don't tell on yourself now. Hey, back in the day, yeah, okay. I didn't go there. Oh, no. I wasn't even talking about that. I was just talking about poor math. Oh, no, yeah. Well, I ain't. Seven times three is 21. Yeah. Okay, get it right. Like a blackjack dealer. He just didn't want to pay that time and a half. That's right, boy. Lord, have mercy. But yeah. That's what you're up to. He's planting rice. That's it. I'm planting rice in the backwater. I'm going to plant millet in the silt as soon as the water comes off on the higher ground. On the higher ground.

I got a full whittor with some tracks on it. And I got Dan the butler on the back with a cedar. We'd be doing the same thing, but two of our not so brilliant compatriots on the land we work on, two of our pieces of equipment are stuck right now. He went too far. Oh, are they still stuck? Yeah, I'll put it this way. They could potentially be there until Jesus come back.

I mean, it's going to take a bigger tractor. Well, no, no, no. To get this one tractor in the 15-foot bush. Oh, I was just fixed that because Phil did that on his land down there when you, okay. I told him to brush it in unless hunt out of them. Because it's there. It's there. Right now, it's there.

Until that rice farmer, our neighbor gets over there with his tractor, his there. Yeah. It ain't going nowhere. Well, I can't believe Phil got his out. Wow. He took down like three or four different vehicles and okay, who changed all of them.

And got all them stuff. Because hey, look. Hey, no, no, no. Yeah, because I'm telling you, hey. This thing was buried up to the seat. Okay. He went ahead and put it to the cab, huh? Oh, yeah.

Yeah. And look, what amazed me, I could, I said, well, that's going to be there. You might as well just, you know, have somebody play taps over it and bury it. Because it ain't coming out. Get God one in his, and his trucking out. He won't bring it. Not only that. It was stuck up to the cab, but it was also on a pipeline.

That's the bad part. Okay. But it turns out, Phil said, no, no, no. They hadn't started running gas through it yet. I knew that. I knew that. That's debatable. Oh, man.

It is fun getting stuff stuck. I mean, if you ain't been stuck, you ain't been trying, is all I got to tell you. The work of getting stuck, it's not. it out. It's fun getting unstalled. Oh, no, here's a good one. Okay, he left somewhere. Phil did.

Here's the order he gave me. Hey, take him the four-wheeler down there, load it down with a sack creek, concrete, 50-pound bag, and put it on the main levee where the dump is. Keep it from washing.

Yeah, from Washington. Yeah, from Washington out. So I load it up, yeah. Take off. You know, man, I don't even remember who was with me. Somebody was with me. You know, take off. We get in the mud, okay.

Well, I got about 15 of them sacks, 15 pounds, so I'm 50 pounds a piece. Okay, if things starts bogging down, I just don't fit, yep, nope, he gets stuck. And I look back there and, hey, the axle has done. And Phil said, why didn't you get it out? I said, I had no idea how to get it out. I said, hey, the axle broke, okay, because I had too much weight. He said, yeah, and you left it for me to get out. I said, well, hey, you know how to do this.

I don't. he said that's he was honest oh no no because he said i hate leaving because when i leave y'all in charge y'all never do what i tell you i said well hey i try it i say this if he was on that main levy and had to walk back that's a long walk oh no no it wasn't that we just we had just went where the flag is and went down to that you took the concrete oh yeah to the flag yeah okay well that ain't too i loaded up from pickup you know there and then we started nope the poor soul that got our tractor stuff. Too much mud. He had him about a mile and a quarter

back to the camp. Well, I've done that too. And the problem, you know, the good news is right now the mosquitoes and horseflies aren't bad at all. He got ate alive on the way back. Oh, no, no. I said, well, that all taught you a lesson. Don't go play in there. Yeah. He had one job. Bushhog the roads.

Why in the world he went out in that field? I'll never. Oh, what are you? I go out of my way to keep from riding in in a rig with Phil. Yeah, I noticed that when you first showed up, okay. Or Phil's dog.

Hey, whatever rig that Phil got in, and Blue got in, Stone went and got him and found him. Hey, if he had to ride a bicycle, Stone ain't riding with Phil. No, he, the blue will urinate on all your gear. In the boat? Every chance he gets. Oh, any chance.

If it's not. I laid down the blind one day, trying to get asleep. Like that's all here. I thought it was raining. No, he ain't raining. blue dung cocked his legs pissing on my waders okay I said you're lucky I said you're lucky I said if I I had my put my 22 pistol on me right now I said I'd put a bullet right between your eyes that's a joke everybody oh no no no hey if I'd have had a 22 pistol eye and you just said cock

come at hey brother I'm sorry about killing your dog but hey crazy raskol pissed on me on my waiters No, I was Johnny D. I was witness to that event and I'll never forget that one either. That's another one that's imprinted in my mind. Oh, no, no. My favorite dog one was Trace before Blue. With just every time she got a chance

would jump in the rig with Jason take a dump. She would jump in the car. No, in the back of the four-wheeler or something? The boat. It never boat. She would go out of her way to. get with jace and then take a dump whatever vehicle they were in

she would get in there and take a dump every time i always get chicle every time jason have never got a dog okay no because look you gotta have a command voice to make a dog obey you jace ain't got it and we'll never have it okay what's up

but anyway dogs dogs do not like jason no they don't trace thoughts a little of them she just take a dump everywhere His idea of hand signet, dog, the dog, look, first thing you want to do, you give you dog a name that has one syllable. Okay, your dog don't.

Not big in. Not three, four syllable names. So, you know, they understand simple commands like let, like over, over, back, here, all one syllables. Heel. Chase sent his dog out and say, go to that button will and take it right. And give him 30 yards. He'd roll up a map and put it in his mouth, so get out there to read that.

Go to the first tree and take a left. I think he's in that thicket over there. The best one, I can't even remember the dog's name. It was a terrible. It was a lab, black lab and female. And neither one of them understand a whistle, by the way. That's a different story. But we went up to the creek on Cypress Creek in the blind, you know, on Second Slew.

And when we're hunting and there come about eight gadwals, okay. they get in right and we kill them all yeah well the dog goes out there picks up one and swims over about 80 yards I'm gonna stop you right there oh we're moving on to the next story oh oh yeah no I know what this one's going to be all right we're not gonna waste time on that we'll tell you we don't go there we'll tell you in the break are we taking a break look folks at home listening to that make up your own ending to what you think was going to happen so all right there you go you all to know what's been going on in the real duck call room yeah hit us with that yeah what are y'all

been what you've been doing since this this is the duck call room podcast we talk about duck calls just for a little bit now this is the new one for this year this is the fill robertson pro series call okay i've never seen it in person fancy oh this is the acrylic uh barreled version of it it is modeled after the original DC 200 AKA classic commander barrel got the same shape. So this is acrylic with a nice band on it.

And the one condition Phil gave me. We've been running it for about a year now. He said you can put my name on it, but it's under one condition. I said, what's that? He said, it needs to be better than the one with Jason's name on it. Competition, boys.

So I said better. I said, how you make that better? He said, I'll make it a little bit louder, a little bit raspy. So I'll do a little demonstration for you, Sa. You let me know what you think. All right, you ready? Yep.

Well, the first thing, oh. Okay, it's very, very easy to blow. Very easy to blow. Very easy to blow. Because you didn't have no air there. No air pressure. Yeah, and it did sound just like a big old mouth. Hey, next year we're going to make the Cy Robertson pro series.

You know what we're going to do with it? What? Take the reeds out of it. Hey, look, if it'll sell, go for him. That's it. I highly recommend that one. That's going to do good for it, Martin. No, it looks good.

It's a good sounding call. It looks good. Phil's happy with it, which those of you don't know, that's almost impossible. Hey, this is just so the fans know. Hey, Phil Robertson and Jason Robertson, they're not the only person in this robbery. They can put them into decoys and make them backpedal. Old side robbers can do that too. Thank you.

Yeah, that was just a joke, we was just having fun with you about the readless pro series. That's it. Yeah, let's take our last break and we'll get in that mailbag. We're going to get in the mailbag, boy. What's in that mail bag, Johnny D? Do you all want serious or goofy? Let's go.

Give us a little bit of goofy first. All right, so do you remember when we had the discussion of which M&M had more chocolate? it. Melinda has answered it once and for all from Hamilton, Michigan. Hamilton, Michigan. You cannot argue with her logic. Okay. She emailed M&Ms and asked.

Really? That's fantastic. Melinda. What did Eminem say? I'm going to just read. So now we have from our friends over at Mars Wrigley, thank you for contacting Mars Riggily. We appreciate that you're including M&Ms and your family discussion.

We're all family here, Melinda. Amen. To settle this fun family bantering, M&M's milk chocolate has a little more chocolate compared to M&M's peanuts. We hope this information helps. Look at there. That's exactly what yours truly said. I agree. They said Uncle Si was right again.

Why would we ever doubt him? Don't doubt me, boys. So now we're out of that discussion's over. That ended that. That ended up. I'm ending it by emailing Eminem's themselves. Sometimes the easiest thing to do is the best answer. Just ask the people.

You just do what make it. Hey, go to the people, boy. I don't know why we never thought of that. It's more fun to discuss. We had people hammering out the... But sometimes it's better... Melting down. But sometimes it's better to not know.

That's right. Because it leaves you open for these discussions. See, now we can never bring that up again. You can't discuss it anymore. I'm still curious. Will you tell me the story later? I'll tell you later. Okay.

And then we got another one who's going to. going to support Uncle Sy's affinity for mysterious animals. My man Tanner, I'm not even sure if I should use your name, Tanner. He works for a USDA research facility and an undisclosed location

in Oklahoma. Mystery. Mystery, boys. So he's a government employee. And they use, they raise monkeys for research. And one day a couple of monkeys conspired together and escaped the facility. It's a conspiracy.

with two monkeys and somebody actually saw one of the monkeys riding on the back of a deer anyways they found so one monkey they had found a house he climbed in the bed of a pickup truck found a six pack of bush light

they were then able to capture that monkey because that monkey was drunk off his rock was polluted he bit through the can the monkey's just monkey's having a good job So look, then this is, I guess it's a true story from Tanner.

He was throwing the empty cans at the people trying to catch him, but they tranquilized him and caught him. But the other monkey was never final. He's still at large. No, because, yeah, he rolled away on the deer in the sunset. Yes. Now, my question is, did he have a saddle on the deer? I'm not sure.

But Tanner, who works with monkeys, says it is possible for us to see that. that monkey running around the woods. I agree. Yeah. That might have been the one that Dan saw. Could have made his way to Louisiana. All the way on the deer's back. But that email made me.

No chance that monkey made it out of Oklahoma without running into a bushlight. That's real real. They seem to be susceptible to that. That monkey got tore up on some bush light and was throwing the empties. And if he made it here, he's definitely run into a natural light. Oh, boy. What was this guy's name? That was Tanner.

Tanner. Tanner. Tanner is a storyteller. It was a solid email. Oh, real good. Oh, yeah,

that's a good one. You just restored my faith in the USDA, Tanner. I can appreciate it. That's good. There's monkeys right around that. Well, buddy told me,

you know, this restaurant down the road here it shut down due to COVID. He has a body shop right next, or a garage shop right next to it. He said he walked in his garage that day, and the rat problem is, they don't come out of that restaurant,

coming to his body shop. He turned the light on. and he said he saw a rat laying on his workbench, bench pressing the wrench. Or bench pressing a ratchet, that's what he said. He said, I'll turn on light, he rose up and threw that ratchet at him. Took off running. That's the rats we used to have here then. They just moved down the street to him.

We had some grown ones. There's still some rats above my office. Yeah, I hear them every now. They're like raccoons. But it ain't like a whole herd like it was. It used to sound like the Serengeti above my office. We used to have snakes in this office, too. They's coming for them.

We have another one? No, I'm just saying. They were coming for the rats. You know what follows rats? Rat snakes. Yeah. Rat snakes. Yeah.

Yeah. So that's why I wasn't too big. You know what follows chickens? Chicken snakes. It's the same snake, but that's fine. Well. What did you say the same thing? I said they're the same snake, but that's fine.

Okay. All right. That works. Well, then why do we? Chicken or eggs, boys? Chicken or rat snake. whatever same thing all this time large black side whoever knew i got me i didn't as long as i'm in a boat with him i feel good about it yeah all right well you what else you got are we we we got time for one

more we got time for one more one more right hey here we go serious one oh serious might take a little long yeah i got this one's good my name my man thomas um he's ready he lives in upstate new york he just turned 19 and he's about to buy his first pickup truck. Okay. And he just wants advice because we're pickup truck people. There you go. Number one, make sure you got a job. And these days, you know, that's pretty rare.

Number two, do not finance a vehicle for over three years. I like that. I like that. Do not. Because if you do, you'll find yourself, as they say, upside down on your vehicle. So I say keep it to three years or less. And whatever you can afford in that price range. I personally have no allegiance to brand a pickup truck.

I've driven a GMC my entire adult life. But that's just because one of my really good friends sold them. So he's a friend of the family. He made life easy. I could text him what I wanted. And if they didn't have it, it'd be there in 72 hours. if you have somebody like that, do that, but I get the best you can possibly afford. That's not a play on words to say Ford.

But Ford, Chevy, they all make really good trucks now. So Toyota, they all make really good trucks. It's just. And I would also add weight. Yeah. Now is not the time to be buying a used rig. Yeah. Cars are outrageous right now.

Yeah. And they're going to be that way for a while. And they're not going to go down. Yeah. Yeah, they've realized that we will pay that, so they'll keep charging it. So unfortunately. Beauty of capitalism, boys. Beauty of capitalism, well, I've driven a Chevy and I've driven a Ford, and I like them both.

Yeah. So whatever, I'm a man who likes a good deal. Yeah. Well, look for the best deal. That depends on what you personally are looking for. Mm-hmm. That's true. Okay.

Yeah, if you're looking for a half-ton pickup truck full. If you're looking for a half-ton pickup truck full-wheel drive, it is hard to be a Chevy or a GMC. If you need a diesel, I would suggest looking towards the Ford's just been my experience with them. But, you know, it's just whatever. Yeah, they're all right. But I had that 99 Chevrolet Silverado Z-7-1-1500 that was gray with the red pinstripe down it with the Duck Commander Real Tree Seat covers. That thing was cool, sir. Of course you'd have had a vehicle with a pinstrike.

That thing was cool as I'll get out. All right, Sy, I close it out first. Send us home with the word. Look here. We're in chapter four of Proverbs. Proverbs four. What's above it is, wisdom is supreme. And what you do, you go to verse 18, and it says the following.

The path of righteousness is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter, ever brighter till the full light of day. But the way the wicked is like the dark, deep darkness. They do not make, know what might. makes them stumble. My son, pay attention to what I say, listen closely to the words. Do not let them out of your sight. Keep them within your heart, for they are like to those who find them and health to a man's whole body.

Above all, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. So, hey, we'll end it with. If far as it goes for you, every morning you wake up, just do what's right. and you'll have a pretty good life. Boy, if everybody did that, we'd be in a good spot. And wake up in time to watch a sunrise. There ain't nothing better in watching the world wake up. That's my opinion.

Agreed. I love watching the world wake up and listening to it. I can do it right there on my patio too. I love watching the world wake up. That's a good thing. Plus, it gets you in a good habit. Wake up early, be a productive citizen. Especially this time of year,

sleep till seven you've missed two hours of daylight already that's right it missed it in montana the sun rose at like 515 yeah you had no choice and didn't go down till 10 it was amazing yeah it's great so anyway thank you we'll be back next time right here in the duck call room we'll see y'all see you see you
