Welcome back to the duck call room, ladies and gentlemen.
We're here.
We're back.
Stone is embracing the role of farm director.
He's a good.
I'm into it.
This is some size hammy-dows.
But I don't think that most farm, well, I don't know, today's farmer may drink Celsius.
You can't ever tell.
Stone Rock and a dog.
Most of them have been a sausage can in that front pocket.
Oh, no, sir.
Some Levi Garrett or.
You know, well, no, I'm all on that too.
Yeah, I think that's originally what that pouch was for.
Mm-hmm.
Chew in the back.
Yeah.
The overall front pouch.
I'm a fan of overalls making a comeback.
I'm for a sack of tobacco that you chew.
I don't chew tobacco.
Well, farmers do.
That's true.
But I'm a fan of overalls making a comeback.
Hey.
I think they should.
They're very comfortable.
They are comfortable.
Get a little breeze down the side.
You can open up that flap on the side.
Especially if you wear them naked.
Yeah, if you ain't got nothing up on it.
Hey, and most of the farmers I know, hey, that's, hey, freedom.
Hold on.
It's about freedom.
They don't wear underwear under.
Don't wear it.
Denom overalls?
Hey, because it gets too hot, they have to work for a living.
Yeah.
We need to tell them about Tommy John.
Gobble don't, Godwin don't wear drawers under camo shorts.
So, I mean, what's the deal on that?
Yeah.
Freedom.
All about freedoms, huh?
People go in commando everywhere.
That ain't no big deal.
The only people that do is because they ain't tried Tommy John,
then they realize, no, that's a height there.
Oh, they got special new pair out now, by the way.
What?
Oh, wow.
What a lot?
Oh, no, I'm serious.
This is not a half.
This is a minute.
Hey, I've seen it on a television out.
It's got a new pair out.
Okay.
Hey, good.
Maybe we'll get some of them through.
Well, hey, there you go.
Hey.
Maybe next time we read one, we'll get some of them.
You know, I just, you know, denim without drawers.
You know, that's just, I'm against it.
It seems like a...
Holy cow.
Oh, wow.
All right, we're obviously...
Excuse me.
That's what somebody thought about that comment.
Yeah, well, no.
Yep.
Oh, whoa, hon, whoa, whoa.
That sound like Taco Bell coming back.
Yeah.
Unbelievable.
Oh.
Get it.
Oh, come on.
You can't get four guys together.
Something sounded like a fart and then somebody not raised up on one leg like...
But you got to raise straight at me.
He got to hike it up.
Well, that'll tell you what he thinks of you.
Oh, well.
What?
Who was that?
Some kind of drill.
That was a drill.
Oh, boy.
Into a center block.
Yeah, some kind of hammer.
Oh, they're right outside.
There's a hammer.
Yeah.
Just right before I left the house,
me and my wife were watching a football game.
Okay.
A football game.
And we hear,
bam, bam, bam.
What in the world is that?
She got up, went out on the porch,
you know, come back,
went out on the front porch,
come back and I said it's bound to be the next door
and every John them she said no you know I think they went to the lake
you know they're gone and sit there for a few minutes more than here it starts again
bam I miss loud well I said well I got to go do the podcast you know so I go out
hitting the truck and crank it up Christine comes out laughing and yell at it and she
said I found out what it is I said sweet pea got in the cabin
just who was trying to get out.
The cat was knocking.
Hey, and it sounds like a carpenter
building something.
Sweet pee is big.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, what you think was going to happen?
That's a fat cat.
It took of me, though.
Because you're talking about racket.
That cat made some rackets, huh?
Well, what if somebody locked you in a box?
You're going to try to get out of there, too?
Well, I'll probably make some rackets.
Well, you reckon Sweetpee was in there after?
Just a quiet place to sleep?
Hey, just to get out of it?
Get away from you?
Yeah.
Get away from Darrell's garage.
He's got a foot fetish.
My cat has got a foot fetish.
Okay.
I'm interested.
No, no.
Because look, every time I get home, kick off my shoes.
Mm-hmm.
Get in my recliner.
Your feet?
Yeah.
Here he comes.
He runs in there and just, he literally lifts my feet up.
That's because they smell like fish.
No.
No.
Because, hey, I sit there for hours just running my feet.
foot over his hair back and forth.
Holy, if you do that, crap, I'll come lay under your feet if you rub my back.
Unbelievable.
Well, hey, that's what he does.
He's got a foot fetish problem.
Well, I've seen your feet.
They ain't bad.
They're better than your brothers.
Yeah, so is this Black Panthers who didn't grow up.
They're out there, boys.
I always had a pet one.
A pet what?
Panther?
A pet black panthers.
Si.
I'm serious.
I'd love to have one of them.
You do.
You need a jet black leopard as a pet.
The jungle cat.
Go here Jason.
Great.
What?
Cancun?
Mexico?
Yeah.
I guess they've got somewhere around there.
They've got one of them big, what is the jaguar?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And he said, so much for your Black Panther thing.
He said, you need to go to Cancun and see that big jaguar.
I said, well, I've seen the little version.
I've seen a baby.
Yeah, I don't feel.
I didn't see the little virgin.
I don't mind.
Where would you keep it?
Hey, look, depending on, here's the newsflash for all of y'all.
For the wildlife out in the wild in God's creation, depending on their food source,
hey, they can just keep growing, boys, get bigger and bigger and bigger.
Yeah.
The problem is.
I was, hey, rattlesnakes.
Yeah.
Oh, hey, if they got a good food source,
because a buddy of mine that works pipelines,
he sent me a picture of one,
and hey, it was that big around and about eight foot long.
It took three guys.
One of them had his head, the other had the middle,
and another had his tail.
It was bigger around than my waist,
for those of you listening and not tuning in on YouTube.
If you could circle of that, he was big as that tea jug.
He was a two-foot-wide,
About eight foot long.
They show you this at a poker game?
No, no.
They show me how to have the photo of it.
Them holding it.
I know, but was it at a poker game?
No, wasn't in a poker game.
I was wondering, because most gamblers are.
I'm lying.
I'm lying.
I'm lying.
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Now, now we're starting to consider the source of where these things are.
No, I was like, Phil when I told him some of my nom stories.
And then I told him, I said, well, I was at the time I was over there,
I kept a fit the whiskey in my, you know, fatigue pocket.
Was that a lot?
And at the end of the day, that fifth of that bottle would be empty.
And he said, now I understand your Vietnam story.
And they're the reason.
Whiskey was involved.
There was no alcohol allowed in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Vietnam.
No, y'all boys, hey, y'all had it rough.
They done y'all wrong.
Couldn't drink on a job.
Yeah, couldn't drink on the job.
They heard their listen from that night.
I got to say.
Hey, you know what was what we call hard time.
Look, we got, look, and look, we got a 24 pack of old duels,
which is non-alcoholic beer.
And we drank so much of it, we thought in our mind, you know.
Got dropped?
Surely.
We eventually going to get a buzz off it.
Well, hey, look, now, all what you need to do is trade that in for.
Okay, just get any kind of Coke or cold.
a drink.
Sprite, seven up, and hey, then drink about
two cases, three cases of them.
Hey, it'll give you a buzz.
It will not give you a buzz.
It will.
Yeah, I done it in college, son.
What are you talking about?
You drank 36 Mountain Dews and it gave
I gave you kidney stones.
No, we drank about seven cases in a 54 hour
time frame.
And my buddy.
And you were drunk?
Hey, was we drunk?
We was buzzing.
I'm telling you.
We all know buzz driving equals drunk driving.
Hey, buzz is the same thing as drunk driving.
54 mountain dues.
That would hurt you.
Oh, no.
Hey, if you drink about three cases a piece, three out of cases, hey, I'm sure you'll get,
you'll be on the sugar hard that you ain't.
I bet you look like my kid sprinkler toy out there that goes like.
Oh, hey, look.
All over the place.
Oh, I went to the restroom frequently.
Yeah, I would think.
You need a catheter to get that out.
That explains a lot.
You empty two of them in a day and a night.
Siam, what do you think about bringing whiskey to this podcast?
This is a fan.
If those are your Vietnam stories,
I'm just interested to see where we could get in an hour.
That's his past, man.
No.
I understand.
He ain't got to get wasted.
I had my, what, I'm trying to think of the terminology to use.
Let's say, I've had my wild shot at life.
So this is your call.
Calm years?
Oh, yeah.
This is a...
Bunch of tea.
Oh, yeah.
Man, I bet them wild ones were fine.
Oh, no.
If these are your calm ones, I bet them wild ones were at five.
No, wild ones were stupid, okay?
Yeah.
That's what them was, okay?
Real, real stupid, okay?
Oh, man, alive.
I love it.
Unbelievable.
You had a fifth of whiskey every day in Nam?
Well, hey, I kept one.
I kept it in my pocket.
That way you wouldn't have to go look for it.
Your kidneys truly are a marble.
Well, look.
Hey, when it wasn't whiskey,
mankind.
The Tupperware cup I carry around,
I used to have that in my pocket full of tea.
And my first thought was always screaming.
Rob, I said, get rid of that stupid Tupper cup.
I said, hey, you hadn't called attention yet.
Don't worry about it.
It'd be gone when you called attention.
Where would you put it in?
Put it in my pocket.
Oh.
I had more trouble with that.
Man, you're a delight.
A gym.
Oh, man.
That is so, I mean, that's the first 10 minutes gone, so we got to take a break.
We got to take time for a break.
We got to pay for this thing somehow.
We'll be back right after.
All right.
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 Triedale's beef, makes such a good product, baby.
Ain't it good?
It's so good.
Our friend, Cy Robertson, would say, buy on the grill!
Look, before we got Tried.
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 Trial's beef. I know in size case,
Christine loves it, which is just a, she doesn't eat meat. She isn't a big meat easier, folks.
Yeah. Just go to trybeef.com slash.
that's trybeef.com slash
support ranch families
and eat some dang good steak.
Today was the boy's first day
at school.
They went to school?
Well, not school.
Mother's day out.
I was about to say, man, your kids are smart.
Yeah, well, they are.
They may be.
What grade is that?
They're being kept on.
They're 11 months old.
How do you do a grade to that?
They're a year old?
Yeah, they're almost a year now.
Extra, extra pre-year.
K? Yeah, the pre-pre-pre-k. So you're sending me a picture of them this morning because it makes me laugh.
On the way to school? Yeah. Oh, they're all their way, boys. Of course, their mom, they're 11 months old.
They're they got to have a first day picture. I'm like, do what they're like, look at them.
Don't they look cute? Look at them. They ready for school. They're ready for school.
They're ready for scope. Look, wailing side eye and say it. I don't know about this.
When did your children become grown men? Well, what did you expect me and Brittany we're going to have?
like I mean that's a couple of good looking boys you got I guarantee you ain't I'm
upstairs hey I hate I hate every day Jackson looks at me and he has to see his future but you know
whatever it's fine yeah enjoy it enjoy it why you keep so it only goes downhill from here
that's it you know but no and that that's a big step for mom to leave them with somebody she didn't know
And of course we dropped them off
And they just took off crawling towards the toys
They never even looked back at her.
Never checked up
She said, wait, bye, no.
No, ain't no bye.
Yeah, no, get out of here.
We got us to go.
We got things to do and people to see.
And then that was her on the phone during the break
So it went as bad as it could have.
No nap, no food.
I said, what'd you expect?
They ain't ever been around nobody for it.
There you go.
They just got thrown in the room with seven kids
about their age.
To wrestle.
Yeah, they get in the dough each.
I bet they won all the fights.
No, there's one kid in there bigger than them.
Oh, boy.
I mean, he's a bruiser.
The lady said that when the parents dropped
the evolves, they said the parents call him
breadstick.
And I said, well, biscuit would be
more appropriate.
Bread stick ain't no fit.
Breadstick, big old boys.
Yeah, breadstick ain't don't fit right.
Oh, breadstick.
I just hope breadstick sticks
for the rest of his life.
I mean, this dude, a bull.
I'm talking about a bull.
son.
That's funny.
But it made me realize, you know, we're talking the day,
all fair.
Man, we got a generation deal.
We got a fix with kids and stuff.
And when I say that,
I'm talking about employees of ours.
Oh, boy, I didn't know where we were going.
Yeah, no, we're going.
I thought you were going to tell the story of trying to tell Ben's that a football
can't hurt him and I hit him with it.
No.
And then he started crying.
And I was like, man, I threw that too hard.
That's making a tough boy.
No, I was going to talk about a 15-year-old that we let go here.
Uh-oh.
And then he decides to post on social media that the people at Duck Commander are a bunch of dumb.
Bleep!
Oh, bleep!
It was a couple words.
Like that I wouldn't see it.
Bleep!
So, you know me.
If I see something that I perceive is wrong, I will call you out on it.
And then he'll tell it to...
I don't know.
How many people listen to this, Hunter?
That many people.
Yeah.
That probably won't be as many as Mr.
Mr. Anthony's episode, but I'm just saying, kid, you're 15 years old.
We are in a very small town.
You're going to need another job at some point.
Odds are, whoever may want to hire you probably knows me.
What kind of recommendation do you think I may get when you put on your resume,
your past employment?
I'll save this picture and use it at everybody that ever calls me about you.
Just to prove a point.
Whatever he fills that out, previous employment, reason for departure, what would he put
there.
Terminated.
Why?
Terminated via text message.
Via text message.
Which is not something I believe in, but when I don't work on Saturdays and you do,
and even on that day you still don't show up for your job, I'm not giving you the respect to do it in person.
I'm going to do it via text message.
I've had to fire somebody via text message before because if you can't show up,
how else are we supposed to be?
Yeah.
What am I supposed to do?
Call you up here on your five days off because you work one day a week and have you meet with me,
so I can terminate you?
No, I'm not.
I'm not doing that.
It ain't worth the effort.
It's not worth the effort.
But John David can tell you, like,
when we're trying to staff our retail store here.
Oh, goodness.
It's tough to find kids that will work.
Thank goodness the Stone kids need money during the summertime.
They're MVP's.
I've changed.
I've changed.
I've changed my outlook.
You either have to be over 50 and retired to be parted.
part time and work for me or your last name has to be Owen.
And that's it.
That's about all that I feel like fooling with.
Because I had this dream of like young kids that liked fishing, working.
And it was a dream.
It was a dream.
Because some of them like fishing and I got one that I like.
He's stuck with me for a while.
But I was on this podcast one day and I looked down at my phone and it was 2.30 in the afternoon.
And the guy, all you work in two to six.
I got to sit.
You're just helping me close.
Yeah.
And I got a text message and says, hey, sorry, I just slept in.
2 to 6.
2 p.m. to 6.
I slept in.
He overslept for a 2 p.m. time.
And then he said, do I still need to come into work today?
And I was like, I ain't asking you to work because I don't.
Hey.
For the goodness of yourself.
Like, yeah, you need to be there.
I need help.
Also.
I think I ought to made up something else.
Yeah.
Like, what happened to clever line?
Yeah.
Like, I'm against line.
But now they're too.
too dumb that they either just like hey man yeah i was asleep which is what my boy said on saturday
it saturday folks if you didn't know in louisiana was opening day of dove season that's a big day
if you're young and you like to hunt that's like kick off well the boy says i got a birthday party
to go to on opening day of dove season i know he likes to hunt i know he likes to fish zoom call into
and on opening day of dove season he's got a birthday party that won't allow him to be at work for
eight out when was the last time a birthday party lasted eight hours for anything much less once you
get to the 15 16 year old rain oh hey i don't like don't lie to me tell me to me i've told you the truth
boss hey i'd like to miss sir to go dove hunt they go go go and you know what i'd say tough break
you're 15 get over this is what you do this is when you this is when you work yeah and this is
hey here's your work schedule yeah okay you'll schedule to work today you should you
You should have known this a month ago.
Yeah.
Go to borrow.
You could have requested it all.
But no, you just, no, I'm good.
Check out.
What's wrong with, hey, if anything, like you said,
they ain't too bright.
No, they're not.
They don't care enough.
That's the biggest issue is they don't care enough to lie about it.
They don't even care.
They don't even care.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
Yeah.
The last one, I've fired two people for just not being
capable of showing up at the time
that they said they would show up at.
And it's like, I've even tried
to work with them. Like, okay,
like, let's talk about growing up
and responsibility. And then
he goes off. And then they just, they can't.
And then the last dude, he like,
he would make up all these stories,
but it would be an hour after he was supposed to be there.
And I was like,
if this was two hours ago, I might
believe any of this, but you're already
late now, bro. And like,
I had to the point where I,
I hope you don't show up because I don't have to have, I can, I'd rather do it myself.
Yeah.
I'd rather just have to work and do two people's job than deal with incompetence that may or may not show.
Find you a retired veteran.
We got a retired police officer.
He's pretty good.
Close enough.
Yeah.
And that's, no, I'm all in on retired people.
On the dove hunt.
And they start talking like, Sae.
Like, these kids are morons.
I'm like, amen.
No, no.
Preach.
Hey.
And a dove hunting in Lubbock?
Yeah.
Okay.
I think he was 14, maybe 16.
thing.
Yeah.
And the guy that was paying him to work for him, he said, he beats all my older, you know,
employees.
Yeah.
Well, that's what you.
Before he's there, before work starts.
Oh, it still exists.
There's a feat.
And they'll be rich.
It's incredibly hard to find.
They will be rich beyond their wildest imagination because whenever somebody does find you,
they're going to be like, holy crap, this.
kid knows how to work.
And he shows up and he's dependable and you don't have to beg him to do stuff and he stays off
his dead gum cell phone.
No, no.
The guy that I had this kid, he said he actually makes me work harder.
That's good.
He said because, you know, he's always doing things and if he ain't got nothing to do, he calls
and he said, hey, what else you got you need done today that I can help you with?
And after I called old boy out.
He called it.
Here's where it got good.
Because I took a picture of it and I said, what's this about?
And he said, well, that wasn't directed at you, if that's what you mean.
I said, I don't care who it was directed at.
It was directed at the company.
That was unprofessional.
Yeah, and it was directed at the company.
And if you got something you need to say, say it.
Yeah.
Be man enough to say it to my face.
And so then he said, well, I was going to put in my two weeks anyway.
No, you weren't.
Yeah.
I was going to put him my two weeks anyway.
And I'm not mad.
I got fired.
I'm just mad I got fired over text message.
Show up.
Which is why I said, well, if you'd show up to your job, I could have done it in person.
Pired you to do.
Yeah.
We're going down the road.
I don't need to go.
Well, no, I told him.
I said, so grow up and take some accountability for your own actions.
I think what makes him the manest is he was in fact a twin, which is one of the reasons I said,
let's hire him because I wanted to do a little case study on twins.
Yeah.
And I'm keeping his twin sister on staff here because she is a great employee.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She does very good.
And I really wanted to tell him, too, that at Duck, Commander, do you realize how hard you have to work to get fired?
Pretty hard.
Like, in my 14 years here, we're still in the single digits of people I've seen actually terminated from the company.
You've really got to try.
And he did.
They did it.
He did.
He was very good.
He pulled it off.
He made it.
Did you ever think we'd get to the point where we'd be saying stuff like kids these days?
Well, I never dreamed that I would be at the point at this place where part of my job is staffing the place and I can't find somebody to come in and work part-time.
Kids these days.
Like when I was working part-time at his age, I was pulling weeds.
Please give me a job in the air conditioning.
No, no.
No, no.
I was in freedom.
I was making less than him pulling weeds on a flower beds.
Yeah.
Inside.
Yeah. Inside, y'all?
You mean, wait, where there's air conditioning?
Yeah.
Hey, I'll say this, though.
I was in the back refrigerator of Super 1
stacking apples when I was his age,
and that was too cold.
Yeah, now that'd probably be a little chilly.
But it's better than on your hands and knees in a flyer bed.
But I tell you what, those two, three times I was late,
and Rick Cody called me at 6.30 in the morning,
your boy'd show up with one shoe on just trying to get out the door,
scared to death I was about to get fired, not,
Hey, I slept in.
My bad.
You still need me there?
No, I was hustling.
And it was 6 a.m.
Not two in the afternoon.
Yeah.
Yeah, we don't open until 9.
And you grew up sleeping in a queen's side bed.
Yeah.
Thank you.
With access to a rollout.
Kids these days, man.
Oh, man.
All right.
Let's take another break.
The rant's over.
We'll be back right at it.
I'm going to end up with a headset like, sigh.
That's actually been talked about it.
Oh, there's a lot of trouble.
Yeah.
I'm going to end up.
Yeah.
And we're back.
I've broken 14 microphones when I get excited.
I apologize.
If you heard a buzz in the last segment, that's my fault.
They're turning me and decide.
They're talking about that.
No, that was just because you had two cases a matter.
You got to think about it.
I started to work when I was 12.
Yeah.
When you were 12.
I was asleep, okay?
Knock on the door.
Early in the morning, it's like seven.
Knock on the door.
Mama is, it's Jim.
the guy that hauls hay
a farmer. He was looking
for Tommy in Phil. Yeah.
Okay. Which they're like, Phil's
two years older than me. Tommy's two years old
than Phil. Okay.
They're in there, what, 16,
14.
Okay.
Well, they're working for Daddy and the oil
field. Big money.
Yeah, and he's, yeah.
Ms. Robertson, I need somebody
to work, yeah? And she
said, Jim, all I got is.
you know, sigh, he's in there asleep right now.
All I got.
The boy, yeah, the boy don't weigh, what, 60 pounds, maybe.
So he'll wait.
Yeah, and, hey, he convinced her I take care of me.
So, hey, he's coming in a while, unless she said, you want to go to work, make some money?
I said, yeah.
Well, get dressed.
Got dressed, and, hey, me and him, he had an old international, he'd put it in first gear,
and it's just,
Mm-hmm, huh.
He'd throw the bells a hay up on the trailer.
We'd get the trailer full,
stopped the truck, turn it off.
He'd help get him up there and we'd stack them.
Here we'd go again.
That's what we'd do all day.
At 12 years old.
At 12 years old.
My favorite part is at 12 years old.
I'm skinner then than I am now.
At 12 years old,
so I was 60 pounds at 12 year old.
I'd have to get weighed in that special section down there at the football deal
so I could qualify.
It had a 130-pound weight limit on it.
No, no.
Martin hit that hot tub before the first-day football.
I was getting weighed in the building down there without any lights.
Oh, yeah, 129.
All right.
And a half.
So when I wasn't working for gym, okay, I actually, you know,
dad had brought old raggedy lawnmower.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Well, I was mowing grass, okay, and, hey, I look at people today when they said,
you know, hey, what did you charge me to mow my yard?
all that's 150.
Yeah.
I used to mow five acres with a push mower for five dollars.
Yeah.
Dollar or acre.
Dollar an acre.
My first job was bush hogging.
Yeah, no.
I bowed.
Well, you was big-time.
J.D.
You had a track.
You had a track.
You had a track.
My dad.
I had had four tires on it, but I had to be the prior.
So it's all like behind Stone's house and where Willie's all.
Willie's property, used to be my uncle's property.
And my dad, the dude was bushhog and charged my uncle way too much.
My dad was like, I got an idea.
And my uncle paid me, and I got paid pretty good, but then I had to pay my dad a third
for renting his tractor.
That's it.
I see, that's a good.
All sight.
Hey, teach you new business.
That's a good business lesson.
That's a good business letter.
Because, hey, my first paycheck for the hayfield just sent me skyward like a rocket.
Where'd you go?
Because my mama said, hey.
give me your paycheck
I guess what this is going to buy
and I said what
she said you're a school clothes
you're a working man now
so hey you got to learn
you go across straight over here
you see bullfrogs sitting in that back room
oh yeah putting duck calls in packages
yep because I told her
if you want to drive
you got to make some money to pay for that insurance
I said I'll let you
I've loan this car to you
you're going to earn
But I ain't.
You're going to earn your privilege.
Insurance.
I walked in there the day.
She's just,
she never said aware.
She's just putting them duck calls in them packages.
She's so quiet.
She's been working for us for a couple of weeks now.
I forgot she's even there.
I walked in there that day.
I said, well, fraud, what are you doing here?
She's like, oh, I'm coming to work.
I was like, oh, yeah, you're doing online school.
I forgot.
So you're going to work here.
You know, her mama, I've been working for a duck matter.
She's about 12.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, yeah, she's a lifer.
And I, and one of our best employees.
Yeah, absolutely.
Oh, she is the best.
I've said you, hey, she's one of the best.
That's exactly right.
Absolutely.
No, but we have so in the summer.
Man, it ain't no BS with Dan.
No.
You get your one away.
You hate telling me something I don't know.
Why you think he's wearing overall.
Yeah.
No, there ain't no.
Look, I, I, we've been married almost 20 years.
and I can count on one hand
the times that she's laughed out loud.
She ain't about no bullcraft.
No, no, hey, she got the same thing.
Daddy did not do it.
Tommy Robertson did not do it.
No, Phil.
Phil, he don't, you have to really say something
that's funny for him.
He ain't no ha-ha-ha-ha.
Yeah, you get a, ha-ha-ha.
Yeah, you really got to do something to get that.
I've seen Phil do that.
one time or he'll just when he cuts them eyes you know he thought it was clever he'll just cut
their eyes at you with a little smirk that's all you get out of him i don't know what i don't know what
that was about yeah she got that genetic whatever it is because daddy didn't do it Tommy didn't do it
okay hey i like that fun bust out laughing i like that with good time oh yeah 20 years no out no
laughing out loud she's never said the words i was wrong ever no she just bakes another
Well, hey, when you write all the time, it's just hard to say, yeah, I may have made a mistake.
Jay's has that one, too.
And then the words, I'm sorry, have never come out of her mouth.
Oh, boy.
Never.
There you go.
It is genetic.
Isn't that weird how that?
Learned behavior.
Nature over nurture.
And her dad is not like that.
No.
Where does she learn it from?
No, it's just in there.
you decide to let it thrive or not.
I guess so.
Robertsons are interesting.
It seems into Robertsons.
It like plays hopscots.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You should.
They've been under the public microscope now for 12 years.
Well, they all they've been studied.
Say, they've been studied out.
And we're going to find out a little bit more about it come September the 29th.
Is it?
Huh?
Eight.
Oh, 28.
28.
28?
I get confused.
All them days running together.
I got twins.
Calm down.
Calm down, Hunter.
You'll forget.
there one day when you have children.
Oh, man, but...
Not if he keeps turning down all those dates.
That's a good point. It's a very good point.
But we're going to let him do.
I think I scared one of them away, actually.
You scared who away?
Uh-oh. He scared her away.
So you responded and it scared.
I'd responded to one, but I think I scared her away.
How'd you scare her away?
She was talking about her dogs.
I got excited to talk about dogs.
I started talking about red pandas, and then she never responded back.
Red pandas.
What's that had to do with the dog?
we're just talking about animals
you were going to get a pet
a red panda
wait a minute
I don't think we got enough time for we got to take another break
yeah break and then back to hunter
all right so you responded to this
this girl
yeah and she ghosted you when you started
a conversation with her
yeah we talked for all of I think two days
two days
yeah and what was the final straw
Well, she was talking about her pets, and I was talking about my pets, and how much I loved dog.
I have a, or I mean, we have a family lab.
She's 15 years old.
I was an old dog.
Yeah, she's very old.
She's at the vet today.
And she's a red panda?
No.
Well, where did the red panda come in this time?
She mentioned cats, and I mentioned red pandas being permanent cats, because red pandas are weird, and they're kind of like cats, and then she never responded back.
The only red thing I know is an oranguts.
tank. Red panda. I have weird conversations and I think that's part of the reason why I'm still
single. I got some advice. Yeah, I got some advice. I'm going to make you an offer. That's what we're
talking about. There's a red panda. Can people obtain those Joe Exotic? I don't think so, but when they
get scared, they just put their arms in the air. Why is he called a red panda? He ain't nothing more than an
orange raccoon. That's right. But timeout. You own one of them? Why would you bring that up? I'm weird. I
don't know.
Hunter,
I've got,
that's why you got,
you got,
got dropped.
I'm,
I'm,
I'm in a biology degree
and I don't even know
that that thing
exists.
Yeah.
Like,
there's like the
last than 10,000 of them.
Look,
here's,
I'm going to do you
solid.
Me and Johnny D.
Next time,
I'm,
Johnny D,
I'm volunteering
you for something here.
Man.
Before,
and I would volunteer
side too,
because he doesn't have,
he doesn't have a,
he doesn't have a cell phone.
That's right.
When you go to have
these conversations,
before you hit sense,
Send it to us.
Let us.
What do y'all think?
No.
I disagree.
If you're into Red Pandas for some reason,
then you've got to say that and see if she is to, I guess.
I'm confused on what this animal is.
No, no.
Hey.
She has her pets.
He's got his pets.
I'm confused on how we bridge the conversation to Red Pandas from dogs to cats.
Hey, have you ever seen this thing?
Yeah, how did they get there?
I'm trying to be engaging, not be boring, you know?
It's not boring.
Thank you.
No, but it seems like you're trying to hijack the conversation and not get to know her.
I did try and do that.
So listen to her story about her cats.
You can hijack it later.
To be fair, she's a cat lady.
Yeah.
Start throwing out weird stuff and get out of there, man.
Well, size a cat lady.
Hey, no, I'm a cat man.
Oh, I know.
But look what it's done for.
Hey, speaking of that, he got locked in the,
And according to Hunter,
size got a bunch of black pandas
on his carport that eat his cat food.
So they're also known as a raccoon.
Raccoons.
Hey, I'm talking about raccoon on steroids.
Someone will call those trash pandas.
Hey, he's suckers weighed 80 pounds, maybe 100.
Because Christine was feeding
a 50 pound bag of cat food a week.
Do you think you guys can find me a day for the weekend, though?
This weekend?
That's for the weekend.
Hunter, you have the email login.
It's full.
of people. I got a concert
on Saturday and I don't want to go by myself.
What kind of concert?
Why'd you ask me that?
Heavy metal.
Because that's going to determine out of our inbox
who I may suggest for you.
Heavy metal. Yeah. So who is it?
Is it heavy metal? Yeah, it's a band called
Dance Gavin Dance. It's not metal
but it's a little bit more like
It's, man, I'm really
Don't be coffee. It's heavy metal.
I'm really trying, I'm really trying
to be open-minded.
I really am.
Honor, you're a
there's a lot of layers in that onion
buddy.
Dude,
I'm so weird.
Hey,
he's a booming onion is what he is.
He's a booming onion.
He's a booming onion, y'all.
I watch too many movies.
I talk about Red Pandas and I go to,
I'm trying to go to weird concerts.
Your t-shirt collection is very eclectic.
Man,
there's a lot of layers.
Your t-shirt collection is a clacket.
He's a producer, people.
I'm wearing a shirt with the superheroes on the Johnny's logo.
I know.
Yeah.
Again.
There it goes.
Johnny's pizza.
Yeah, I got it out of Comic-Con.
I know you got a Facebook, so hey, put it on the Facebook.
Hey, need a date for Saturday night.
So many layers to this onion, man.
There's just.
He's a blooming.
Yeah, because most of our fans want to go here,
Luke Combs, rip off Tracy Chapman to make a billion dollars doing.
And I'm in on that.
That's a good one.
Yeah, I thought it was good.
I'm more of a hooty and the blowfish kind of fella.
But, yeah, I don't know.
Wow, unbelievable.
What a life.
what a time to be alive
Hunter
I mean
so is your thing with red pandas
just because I can't really leave there yet
is it like size thing with black panthers
no those exist
yeah
except red pandas exist
yeah there you go
okay
these are a real thing
well speaking of that about land
look up a video of when they get scared
and tell me you wouldn't be entertained by this
speaking of bands
hey what is all over up to nowadays
all of the verand
I guess he's still churning out new music.
Well, hey.
Somebody wanted us to rank Little Debbie Snacks because of his song.
Really?
Yeah.
He's doing all right, though.
Well, number one is a Christmas tree cake.
That's right.
No, what's Christmas tree?
Then it gets controversial after that.
That's right.
Then it's just a bunch of two A, two B, T, C.
Yeah.
There's a little gap that skip all the way down to like 10 for some of those obscure ones.
But, you know.
Yeah, I don't know.
We invited Oliver Anthony on the show.
Have we heard back from Oliver?
A lot of people tagged him and stuff.
And he went and went on Joe Rogan instead.
I mean, I don't know why you'd go to the number one podcast in the world
when you could go to the number two leisure podcast.
Yeah, that's kind of offensive.
You had to drive right by us to get there.
Because obviously airplanes and buses aren't your thing.
Hey, that's like poker.
What?
What?
Those that play poker, hey.
They come in on planes and then they go back on buses.
let's look
because Alway is drawing
for straight and flushes
oh so I got a little round
had a little portrait to it
that boy
I like it
I don't even know
that's good
there it is
I was trying to find my podcast
which Joe Rogan's not on that
anymore he's exclusive somewhere
huh
Spotify I think
yeah
didn't he Hunter
yeah Spotify
yeah he is
what has been on
on the news
anything with newsworthy
no
NFL football
America
NFL football starts back
tonight.
Football!
College football is running,
college football is running wild and free.
Oh yeah.
I'm going.
Where are you going?
I'm going to the top charts of podcasts.
This is a podcast.
Oh, we're not.
Don't.
Yes, we are.
No, we're not.
We are the number one episode under leisure right now.
Okay.
The episode with Miss Becky.
Really?
And we're still the number three leisure podcast right behind something
called House Rules.
I don't know what that means.
And one of a hunter's,
favorite podcast about Dungeons and Dragons.
We're never going to compete against them.
Critical Role, do you know what that is?
I know of it, but I don't play Dungeons and Dragons.
Any more?
Y'all had Becky on the podcast.
Oh, man.
Did you read the comments on the Becky podcast?
Did y'all talk about when she ran through the wall?
Of course we did.
We shot the video and everything.
Of course.
Oh, you got the video footage.
It's the thumbnail of the episode too.
Yeah, what was that loud crap?
Oh, it was like, I'm sitting right here.
And she talked about you.
She said, you know, Jay is not really
compassionate.
She said, so he walked up to me and went,
it's going to be okay.
I thought a bomb went on.
Have you never seen the video?
And if she came running by, just squalling,
and I'm like, what in the world?
Yeah.
And then we put in a drive-thruiting one.
Yeah, that's right.
Drive-thin-old, boy.
I've been guilty.
Made it, made it problem.
Hit the gas instead of the break, you know.
Yeah, I've just never done it right in front of the building, praise the Lord.
I was going down.
a row one day and threw it in there.
It's back.
Oh, here it comes.
It's back.
It is live action one more.
You've never seen it.
Here we.
A little to the curve and then gas it.
Whop up.
Oh, wait.
Come on in here.
Oh, we love you back in.
Oh, boy.
Oh, the fans loved her too.
I told her all the good comments that they said about her because we had some people
calling her a smoke show.
A lot of people says she looked like the fountain of youth.
There's no way she could have been married for 40 years already.
There go.
So then I took the comments and tried to take to Harry, showing him how kind our fans are and that why he needed to come on here.
You ain't getting Harry, bro.
He said he would consider it once he's retired.
Oh.
Oh, Harry about tell some secrets, y'all.
So I don't really know.
Harry knows too much.
Well, Harry does know too much.
But he's a delight.
And now that he's so snarky and lippy because he is about to retire, he's just, he's even better than he's ever been.
I mean, he is just funny.
I don't do it to you.
I don't do it to you.
You're right to tell you.
We'll get out of here.
Let's take one more break.
We'll get in that inbox.
I think there's some stuff in there we need to talk about.
I got some decent ones.
He's got some good ones.
Oh, here's reviews for our podcast.
A bunch of people went in very recent.
Oh, because we kept telling people to.
Yeah, like it and subscribe and leave us a nice comment.
Leave us a bad one.
All the things.
Run your mouth.
Well, I just went and I'm looking out.
How about that?
Hey, Nick R.
Nick R says love listening

You want to hear
There's always room for
Do we have like a one
Here's a two
Yeah
What's that one
I love these.
That is it nice.
I don't care.
Moose Street.
Moose Street.
Left us one.
The title is replaced Martin.
Two stars.
That's fine.
This podcast truly has no substance.
It's just the same fictitious
side stories repeated over and over.
Cold Spring Q-ball is spot on
about Martin.
He's hard to listen to and a phony.
Who's Cold Spring Q-ball?
Man, that's nice.
Trying to figure out what I'm...
Positive feedback from Kuzkimo.
Fony.
Choose a topic.
You're rambling.
We have admitted that since episode one.
Yeah, we're not your guys.
We're not for you.
Two commercials, not mini-series.
We have the best commercials in all of podcasts them, sir.
And I don't care to hear about a 15-minute write-in for you guys to offer advice, really.
Well, here's some advice, Kuzkimo.
Go get some friends and go out.
and stop listening to people you don't even like.
You're wasting your own time, dummy.
We told you we ramble.
Here's your life advice, man.
Don't do something that you know you're not going to like.
I'll go for 15 minutes on you.
Hey, you're going to roll ramble, won't you?
I'm just kidding.
There you go.
Hey, they may leave me alone this one.
Oh, I don't.
I don't either.
It really is.
There is hardly any bad reviews, just those two.
And I don't know who cold cue ball is, but.
My favorite ones are the comments.
Oh, I'm cold.
Crue ball.
Oh, this is terrible, Martin.
My favorite ones are the ones.
I wish they'd stop talking so much.
Yeah.
It's his podcast.
Hey, oh, what do you?
Yeah, what do you do?
You want to sit here and be quiet?
Yeah.
That's a great podcast.
Hold on.
Let's just pause for five seconds.
Hmm.
That's what we all came for.
This is their problem with you, Martin.
You act like you're the smartest guy in the room is what Cold Spring Q ball said.
Friend.
Martin is the smartest guy in the room.
I'm not.
You all know that.
I'm not.
Maybe in certain categories.
We're all very intelligent in our own categories.
I'm not the smartest guy in the room.
I'm very rare.
Choose the category.
The smartest guy in the room.
I just like the people that don't like that are your category.
In fact, I'll say this cold spring.
I choose to surround myself with people that I know are smarter than me.
That actually is true.
I don't hang around people try not to that would bring me down.
I like to elevate myself.
Life advice right there, buddy, that you hate that people ask for.
But apparently you may get to the last segment of the show, so you're listening to a lot of it.
This was not even planned.
All these others are just telling us how great we are.
I like the mean.
What was that episode of the office?
Boom roasted.
Boom roasted.
Yeah.
Now, let's get in the inbox.
Okay.
I was trying to find one bashing me.
Is there any good ones you want to read?
We are open.
Awesome showing people, silliness with good.
good heart. That's all we are. We like to laugh and have a good time. That's all we are.
Can't get enough of sigh. Who can? Light and fun. Great podcasts. See. Faith building Christian
values. Black Panther love. Greatest podcast ever. Best part of their week. Perfect.
We're going to take down those Dungeons and Dragons nerds. Let's see what the fans will.
Yeah. What do they want to do? Here's what they want us to do. Who sent this in first off?
This is the most incredible thing. I've seen today and I lost it.
Oh, I'm going to figure out who sent it in, but a dude jumped on a giraffe at the zoo.
Hey, hey, this what, hey, he climbed the fence.
That's my fault. That's my fault that he's done that.
Yeah, it is your fault.
It is my fault.
I apologize.
Okay.

Oh, okay.
There you go.
Hey, that dude went bodacious on that one.
Oh, that was from Joel, by the way.
Thank you, Joel sent that in.

Joel said I was on that weird side of YouTube and I stumbled a
on this little gym.
Been there, Joel.
Know all about it, buddy.
Is there a weird side of YouTube?
Well, you get in like this weird deal where those are the kind of videos that
because then you watch one, then the next one that suggests you're like, I kind of want to see it.
All right.
This one's a big one.
That's a big one, boys.

Hey,
I'm now,
since Brittany got
pregnant and had kids
and we got them,
I'm probably
fourth or fifth
on the depth chart
of amount of gas
in our house.
Fourth or fifth.
Because them boys
are one and two.
A dog got you a deal.
Oh,
buddy.
As she's approaching
10 years in age,
oh,
yeah.
Them guts,
I guess,
don't work like I used to
in a dog.
Dublin got kind of rankety there towards the end.
Jews done got some bass, you'd do it and get up and walk off.
And you know if she's just been laying somewhere and it wakes her up and she gets up and walks off, you're like, oh no.
Yeah, she's busted it.
You know what she just does.
She's just busted and she's leaving.
Oh, that old blue heater, we got it to burn your nose hairs.
Yeah.
But I think his biggest fix is a bigger bed.
I think it would solve a lot of his problem.
And they've only been married for two months.
So they might be under the impression like you got to cuddle all night.
So here's a problem.
It ain't true.
He moves a lot.
He snores.
Did he say that?
No, snoring, just farting.
Yeah, other...
Just moving around and farting.
Yep.
Well, you called him a bear.
Yeah, he's moving a lot.
I move a lot.
But y'all, you're two months into it.
You can't...
Let me tell you something, buddy.
It gets way worse than this.
I guess the reason I like...
There's bigger things coming down the pipe, I can assure you.
I like heavy cover.
I guess it's because my mother used a big old
Waiterbier.
A dog? Yeah, a big German dog.
She used her to get us out of bed.
Oh.
Look, and all we would hear is mom would say,
breakfasts ready, go get the boys up.
And we'd hear it.
Galloping towards her.
She's wide open, okay, and then claws are on that hardwood floor.
And she's been out of five.
So her nose is.
cold, cold, cold.
You know, and hey, all you got on was underwear.
Oh, hey, you can't keep her out.
You can't keep her out of van.
And you can't keep her from getting underneath the covers.
Because she's going to stick that cold nose on you.
Oh, man.
Well, you want to send us out of here, Johnny Dewe?
We've had enough time.
We gave them enough to complain about in the comment.
That was a great one.
Look, hey, in the Bible, I'm just going to go with something real quick here.
James 516 says it's about confessing your sins to one another that you may be,
healed but it does say the prayer of a righteous person has great power and is effective. I had a guy
come up to me today at work. His name's Steve. He listens. He's going, he's got cancer, just
diagnosed. A lot going on there. But he said he's believing that no matter what, the Lord can
heal him just like that or the doctors can heal him. So he just asked me to pray for him. So I said,
hold on, let me write your name down. So I'm just going to ask for all of our fans. My man's
name is Steve. He's from Kentucky.
He's just passing through town. But
if y'all could throw out a prayer for him and his cancer,
that would be awesome. And
I know Steve would greatly appreciate it.
And that's all I got.
And the verse is prayer
of a righteous person is great power.
So remember that.
Well, powerful than you can even imagine.
And Steve, we'll be thinking about you.
Yeah, for sure. We'll send one up
to the Almighty in your favor, my man.
Amen. We'll see y'all next time right here
on the duck call room. We're out.
