that's the only one you'll see on red cut road i'll promise you that jimmy red red ain't got one but the man was going 30 miles an hour on that souped up That's it? Barely moving. Because I grew up around Dan, and I would say, like, Dan's brother would be going 200 miles an hour and making me nervous that he was going to die. Well, Dad is just opposite. Just opposite?

Yeah. Oh, good. Well, I had an uncle. He used to drive one. It was Harvey Davidson. Look, and he drove it. If he'd go 150, he'd run, he was running 150. Yeah.

The law was after him. Okay. He'd go to the Arkansas line. And back then, they couldn't cross the line on them. And back then, they couldn't cross the line. Wait, what? Yeah. Arkansas used to be like Mexico? No, no, so they finally got smart.

They finally got smart. Okay. They got way more ducks than we do. Started chasing him in Louisiana. Well, this is the age of technology. They got on the radio and says, hey, put some state troopers up there on the Arkansas line. We're going to get him this time.

So, hey, he can come around the corner and state lines, he's seen him state troopers. He just said, well, I ain't got one thing. to do. I got to go right dead center of that fence post and break it down and go over it and then I'll be free. We'll just go through the woods so they can't get me. That's what he did.

What year was this? Running from the cops, it's back 60s. Running from the cops doesn't work anymore, doesn't it? Like, they're going to find. Well, hey, they didn't ever, you know, here's the best part of it. You know what he did in his later years? became a cop.

Yeah, he was a sheriff of Vivian, Louisiana. Motorcycle car. Everybody tried to get away from him. He had already done it all, so nobody got away. Oh, yeah. The best game, the best game wardens are repented outlaw. That's right. Oh, yeah.

Because, hey, you're never going to do nothing to surprise him. Yeah. Because they've already done it all. Like if Phil Robertson was looking for a career change. Yeah. If he went to be a game warden, you grasp, buddy. Yeah. You're going to pay the fan.

to find and do the time. Like, he about to get you. I don't know if there's such thing as a good game warden, though. Well, I mean, good at their job. Well, yeah. No, no, there is. No, and a good-hearted game warden. You're just going to talk about that girl from Texas.

I think they're in the state of, where's the Columbia River? Idaho. The Columbia River? Sure. Idaho? Yeah. Yeah. I know the Lake Rivers there.

Billing them one up there and, hey, guess who's building the duck blinds? Game wardens? Game wardens. I'll be. I said, my hat's off to you, I can't believe it. Normally you're writing your grandmother a ticket and taking her in jail.

You ain't going to find one Louisiana to build a dog blind for you. Well, I know. I was shocked when it feels hungry. You said, write your grandma too. I'm going to stay silent in this deal, just in case I run into it. And do a game word?

Yeah. But I don't think they're listening to us. No. Last evoccal, I had this game word, and he ran into my buddy's truck. Oh, yeah. Oh, they were. recording it yeah i heard i heard phil speak to a bunch of them one day and he yeah he's told me he said

oh i ain't been around this many game more as he's i'm i'm nervous i said well he got up there he said he said oh i can't wait till i get to heaven because i can keep all the fish i want to keep kill all the ducks i want to kill and ain't got to worry about no game morning because ain't none of y'all gonna be there. None of y'all gonna make it. And they laughed to y'all. Well, I like to laugh about it. He said, boys, I drove in the parking lot,

and he said, I looked out there and seen all them green pickups with lights on top. And he said, the first thing in my mind was, run! We didn't catch him either. Oh. Oh. They never did.

They never got him. No. No. I didn't know this. Apparently, he just kept crossing the border. I didn't know that was possible. They got a very dangerous job. Yeah.

I didn't know this. I heard it on the news or radio or something. More Game Gordon get killed in the line of duty than any other law enforcement. Yeah. Is that true? I mean, I don't see how it couldn't be. I think, I think, you know, I heard on TV.

I'm repeating what I heard. You generally, you're going into someone who, probably has a weapon. Multiple. And they're clearly, you're not going in there because they're doing what is right. Well, no, no.

So that's the thing I didn't, you know, because expect you when you go like in, you know, Africa, all these places where there's big money and ivory and all this other stuff. Oh, you're talking about around the world. Yeah. Worldwide.

Yeah. Then poachers over. Then poachers with a acre. Yeah. Yeah. They'll cut your arm off of the rino's horn. Yeah. Yeah, I don't want to do it.

I respect what they do for a little. Oh, no, no. Thank you, game work. Hey, they got a job to do and they do it. Yeah. Are you really going to measure all the fish, though, out of the fish? Okay, I'm sorry. I mean, there's seven and 50.

That's their job. Seems like a lot of work. I don't think you're doing it. But I can't say that. I think a lot of that depends on how you treat them upon their arrival. Exactly. Because I've never really gotten the third degree from them, but it's always been yes, sir, no, sir.

you go thank you. You want a bottle of water? Thirsty. Yeah. Thirsty, pal? Can I help you? But, you know, I think that goes for a lot of things, too, even with police. When you're wrong, you're wrong.

You know, pull me over for speeding. You got you, boy. Not anymore, because I drive at a snail's pace now. Almost every time I've ever been pulled over, I roll my windows down and go, you got me. Yeah. Even if I'm really not sure what's happening. I'm like, you got me for something. How bad was it?

what a do I've told them for I said man that's a good spot there you got you one there that's a good hiding spot yeah no anyway let's take a break we'll be back right after this

all right look springtime is here it's warming up you know what that means that means more outside cooking and y'all know we love to eat beef around here and that's what because of our friends over at tritels beef makes such a good product Ain't it good? It's so good.

Our friend, Sao Robertson would say, buy on the grill! Look, before we got Tritels, getting ready for a cookout, man, somebody had to run the grocery store, do all the things, grab whatever was left in case you were late in the day.

And you never really know where that beef comes from. But with Tritels beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Tritels 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 Tritale's beef.

I know in size case Christine loves it, which is just a, She doesn't eat meat. She ain't a big meat easier, folks. Yeah. Just go to tribeef.com slash. That's tribeef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. I noticed yesterday I was driving back from my speaking deal and what is like 80 degrees yesterday for the first time on you. Nice.

Every pond that you can see from the interstate coming back on. There was some kind of boat launched in that pond. And I was like, yeah. Yeah. It's on, boys. Yeah, I sitting there saying, boy, Johnny D, he is. He's feeling good. He's in the whole-guet-win.

Yeah, if you need any cash out of JD right now is a good time to get it. We're a cash flow doing all right. Now, this weekend, it finally was like, you know, not to dog on February, but you suck. The whole month is like, generally, yeah. It generally is just like, ugh, it's February. Yeah. Luckily, it's the shortest one, but it's like it's cold, it's dark. You get off work, it's dark.

And then this weekend it was like, you know what? It's springtime. Yeah, I noticed some of that yellow film on my truck, too, when I got home. I didn't see that yet. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. The trees are starting to spawn. Yep.

Oh, yeah. But, yeah, this weekend was like 80 degrees high, 60. We had a fire at night on the back porch, and then all day you're playing outside. Yeah, every other weekend since duck season ended. It's been cold and raining. Then I have to leave town to go do that thing. and it's 80 degrees, very little wind. Yeah.

Who wants to go fishing? Everybody did. Yeah. And then you get up here today and the wind's blowing 20. Supposed to blow 20 again tomorrow and rain Wednesday or something. Yeah. I think the wind's off them. I mean, the rain's off Wednesday.

Yeah, but northwest is coming through though. Yeah, big. So, you know. You missed. Temperature is going to. I missed my chance. We bought Shiner's on Saturday twice. From Jeremy?

And old boy had to come back. Oh. It was that kind of. You know, made him make two. I went home and had to, like, change clothes because I was just dipping shiners all the day. How many yos yos y'all selling? A bunch of them.

Oh, yo-yo. It's, we're here. Yeah. We're to the greatest part of the year. Yeah, they're warm nights where people will stay up all night with their cool beverage, shining their spotlight on their yo-yo's. Paddling around in a John boat. Mm-hmm.

Those guy does that behind my house. Yeah. I don't know why. It's a very small pond. That's that same guy, Jason, yelling at it, wasn't it? Jep calls him the shirtless fisherman. I know him as Jason. He's a customer.

He's a customer. buys a lot of showers. But he doesn't sleep a lot. He up all night? Yeah, friends with Mario. Oh, okay. Mario will catch fish. You know Mario?

No. He works a tractor supply. A tractor supply. I love Mario. If you ever need local pulse of this town, just holler at Johnny D. He knows them all. The other day I went to tractor supply, and I was like, why are these people taking so long

because I was getting some stuff of the outside and then here comes my man Mario and I was like okay I can get him back next time he comes in I'm going to take a minute but that dude can catch fish anywhere anytime Mario Mario and he don't throw none of them back

none of them back nothing to get to not back I fished dog pond I live on can't catch nothing and Mario come in and be like oh I caught 40 fish out of there I'm like Just makes me sad. But I'm a terrible fisherman.

No, you just head on over to Willis. Well, I'm good there. Yeah. He's good there. I think we all may be good there. You can catch him out of that pond. They bite there. They're angry and not well-nourished.

Yeah, they're hungry. They bite there. Oh, they're well-nourished. They are, oh, yeah, he's feeding them now. They just don't see a lot of crick. They don't see a lot of fake bait. Enticing them. I got five feeders going off three times a day.

We need to go find the big one. So they, there's some fat ones in there. There's Big Belly Kelly's in there for sure. We need to go find her and put her on the wall. Well, you're the one with a yakua forward facing sonar. What's it, boys? There's one person that possesses that skill out of all of us. That's the problem, though, because now it's the time to fish, which means now it's the time to work.

Yeah, just like duck up. No, hey, that's how we do. We need to launch your boat in there. Put my boat in there? We put it in there. It'd be fun. I mean, we fish it pretty quick. We could go pan around out there and find her.

It wouldn't take but a second problem. It wouldn't take long. And drop a freeloader on her dome. Do this. Martin, you're part of that, aren't you? What? The world's hottest bait right now. Yeah, the number one fishing bait in the country, in the world.

In the world. Yeah, it is in the world. It is. The freeloader from Rapela. You're part of that, aren't you? I am a part of the Crush City crew, yeah. Did you, like, help make that? No, I didn't do anything.

Okay. I just said, yeah, I'll help you all. How did they improve it? What, this freeloader? Yeah. It's inspiration from two other companies, and they just made it better. So this thing's like a minishate. And when you shake it, it wobbles instead of just like this here.

It kind of does a little side to side. It's a great chatterback trailer, too. And good luck finding them if you want one of them. I think I've seen them on a commercial on that when they're fishing. Oh, yeah, if it had Jacob in a commercial. Yeah, Jacobs wanted to help design it, yeah. That's... Because they're more streamlined, but they, you know, I can't believe they got a good wall.

The man's won about half a million off of it, so it's doing okay. Okay. Well, it's a good-looking bait. I've made a couple thousand. They had about... It had about five of them. They're showing, you know, different sizes and different colors. Yeah.

They look really good. Yeah. And when it helps, when you're bringing in about a four-pounder, with it in his mouth. Well, thanks. We've worked hard on the Crest City Live. Oh, yeah, yeah. I call that the Justin Martin Friendship Special.

I'm just, I'm just a face with the name. They do work well. Here's what, you know, they wanted me because they wanted an everyday fisherman to use them. They bite them. That's all I tell you. They bite them. He's an everyday fishery. Yeah, I'm not, I'm not Jacob Wheeler, that's for sure.

Thank God. The world don't need two of them. But, yeah, no, they buy them. him. Hey, he's one of my best friends on plant. I can say that kind of stuff. He's crushing. That's a strange breed. What? A pro fisherman.

Yeah. That's a strange breed. It is. I consider a lot of them friends. You are correct. Of course, they say the same thing about duck hunters. Oh, no. Well, no, because I each thing on them are all weird. Yeah, we're all weird. Well, hey. I said you're.

I said we. I would put another word in there, not weird. passionate about what we do. We are weird. Hunter's normal. Very normal. That even got a chuckle from hunter. But let's take a break. We'll be back

right after this. No, Willie called me this morning. I didn't see it. And I said, why is Willie calling me? And so I... Oh, he's going deer hunt. Yeah. Which was a hilarious conversation by itself. But he called me and I answer you, and we do the whole thing that we always did for 10 years. Yeah. He goes, I need your assistance.

And I was like, I'm trying to figure out if I could charge him or not, but I couldn't. And I was like, what do you need? And he said, your memory, there's a certain barbecue place we love in Texas. Actually, your uncle said it was okay. The one that was in the green room, the country tavern. And Willie couldn't figure out where it was. And he was nine minutes away from it. So luckily, when I called back, he just skirted on over there.

he said he asked for a menu they said you won't need it and he called it a top three ever so we're clear we're back on the country tavern that you called average that oh by the way he ate the whole rack of ribs ate a whole rack of ribs but it was average but it was average it was okay it wasn't nothing right home bad i don't really go great will he just called it a top three ever i have the text message right here yeah but i'm going to am i supposed to be impressed Where's this saying? It's in Kilgore, Texas. Kielgare,

over by Longview. You're not impressed? No, I'm not impressed because what it said it was doing the top three. Hey, I'm speaking in Longview this summer you won't go with? Yes.

We'll go to Country Tavern when I get done. Where are you speaking? Or before? Country Tavern. It's good. Yeah, I'll go. I had to find my phone.

I'll ride. Where do we stop in Mississippi that we bought? You got that brisket and everything that was real good in that giant store? You know what? Those two things generally don't go together.

Brisket really good in a giant store. Well, I know, this thing is, yeah, it's, it's, it was okay. Hey, hey. I had some really good brisket yesterday. That's from a chef that does cooking, okay? I'm not a chef. Yeah, you are.

I'm like a meatologist. I don't want to have a meat auditors. Hey, that's the chef in my book, maybe. Doctor. I haven't had a good brisket in a long time. Yeah. I'll put it in front of his name. I may or may not a smash four brisket tacos from Buckees yesterday.

Oh. You went to Buckees yesterday? Yesterday? I had to drive by it. Where did you go? I went to Nashville. I was speaking in Nashville. There's a Buckees that direction now?

There's one in Athens, Alabama, right before you get to the Tennessee state line. See, I don't get out much anymore. Yeah. See, my wife bought me some for Buckees. What? She went, her and Liz, went to the... They got everything. I know.

Oh, the Beaver Nuts. Oh, the Beaver Nuggets. Yeah. It's a different name, but... I'm not a Beaver Nugget guy. I'm not a minute. It's like, give me a handful, and I'm okay. They have way more delicious treats on those.

Well, hey, come in a bag. I took the knife and cut the top a little bit, but when I picked it up, the whole thing split open, don't go in down, and it went all over the kitchen. Beaver nuts everywhere. Hey, beaver nuggets everywhere, boys. All over the kitchen. All over the kitchen.

What do you do with them? Hey. Clean them up? They clean them. up the own way. Oh, why'd you throw them away? Is your floor that dirty? Oh.

No, I ain't that dirty. He just, I don't eat off the floor. Oh, I do. So you'll get a kick out of this. I'll pick a dog hair off something in a heartbeat, son. Well, if it's good enough. Oh, yeah, that's what I'm saying. Not everything gets that treatment.

I ate something off the honeyhole floor the other day because I forget what it was, but I was like, that can't go to waste and people judged hard. What is is the three-second rule? Yeah. It depends on how good it is. That time extends if it's, you know. If it's stones brisket, I'll eat that off. What was you talking about it?

No. You're saying too much malfeasance in office on the states it runs through? Well, they don't spend the money on it that they should. I don't know about no rednecks.

I don't know about no roads. They try to ball on a budget. If they need to learn, go over to Europe and see how they do the interstate. John David, you said that was your son's second ear surgery?

fishing shirts and big bellies I thought this was like a mariachi band playing and they were no no it was some dude on a piano playing and singing and they just get up and dance and they get up

and there's a cat robot and a cat robot oh man just when I thought West Monroe couldn't get better it got better it got better okay I love it

I love it because I never would go to that restaurant I got to go to it what is the name of the hat Elson Brer You can't type in the hat. That's just rough translation from a couple of rednecks. Yeah.

But we went there every day for lunch and I was so sick of it. I was like, I'm never going back there. Because literally like Gimber, who I shared an office with, like five days a week. I'm like, I can't do this. Best yield around. Best yield around. Best yield around. Eight dollar lunch.

Yeah, which was a good deal, but I don't know that's still that price now. No, it's way more expensive. And that is not their fault. It's somebody else's. I'm looking at me for. I'm looking at the camera in case the president's watching. Anyway. No chance he can follow us.

I struggle myself. Ain't no chance that boy can follow us. And I'm sitting here. I couldn't imagine watching a long time. He's been with his whole crew from beginning, boy. You'd run smooth out of ink on your pen if you're trying to draw a map of what we do here. Good luck with that. But it's inspirational.

Got that clove? He didn't get your outline when you come in. No. But no, look, so I told Allison about it. She told the kids about it. And they're like, Oh, when you sent me that video or your kids. They're jumping up and down, like on the way into the restaurant.

Carter's like, this is the most genius thing of it. So then I got curious. They got to sell these cats because I found out. Oh, yeah. There's a second cat in Monroe. Is it really? They got another location. There's an else umbrella of Munro?

With a salsa cat robot. Same people own it, I guess. Right across from Pizza Hut. Probably taxed. That's how me and you know. Pizza Hut. In front of Bush. Oh, yeah, that one.

Yep. Yeah. The cats are taking over. They got a cat robot. So I'm like, how much is a cat robot in case I want one for the honeyhole? Yeah, in case, you know. Just the cat deliver your worms straight to your car. $15,900.

What? $15,000. For my entertainment. God bless them for investing in them. To be fair, though, I would not have gone. without knowing about the cat robot. Then they got 60 bucks out of me. And I say now the general manager hat just come on.

How much you say? $15,000. $15,000. You couldn't pay somebody to tote chips for that. Nope. For $32,000 because they got two of them. Well, you would have to hire two people because they're two locations. I did watch how it works.

Is it a Roomba style like it maps a place? There's a handler. Oh. There's a number came up on the cat. No, that's, that happened to be the same number. I'll tell you why I was sitting up. That's a gun with technology. And old handler.

She just types in the number and then walks away. Well, that's what I'm saying. And the cat will talk to you. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It'll be like, excuse me, before I have to jump over you, excuse me. Oh, whenever you're walking through there, if you get in the way. Yeah.

Get out of my way. Yeah, Rumba's not that kind. It just runs over your foot. Yeah. Pusses your furniture all over the room. I had a bed. But fascinates your 16-month-old twins. So, yeah.

You want to hear a horror story? A good friend of mine, got one of those rumbas, vacuines his house. How did that? It's dog. Dog crapped in the house and that room, but spread it everywhere. Spread it from one end of the house to the other. That ain't on the room, but that's on the dog. Jay, Jay, you're talking about my dad.

You're talking about my dad. That happened to your dad? Yeah, that would have my parents. It must be a regular thing. That happened. They gave our dog like a bunch of, like fat or something to eat or my dad overfed her. Crapped all over the house and the room was smeared it everywhere.

Yeah. That's a problem. And then Return of the Jedi was on up above the bar. It was a night for you. I guess it was a slow, slow time in the, uh, in the sports world. So the bar over there had, my kids were just watching Star Wars the whole time. And a robot. It was like R2D2 was there serving his drinks.

It was fantastic. It'll get old better. I'm telling you, I'm anti-self-checkout, but I'm pro-cat robot. And you know what? If they had a cat robot that, like, check me out, I'd probably be. And then took all your stuff to your house? With playing a little ditty, yeah, I'd probably be in my house. I don't know.

Then I'd know where I live. Now we got trust issues with the machinery. See, but I also realized after we argued about self-checkout and I'm 100% for, I'm to the point, though, I just get my groceries delivered. Like, just do it on the phone, be on my front porch. See, I can't do that. Why not? I like to look at the stuff I'm getting.

That's right. I'm a shopper of the meat market, if you would call it that. He's very particular. I don't trust just anybody going there and grab me a package of hamburger meat or chicken. See, hamburger meat and chicken, I'm fine. Like, if I was going to buy ribbyes, I'd want to see that. I had to give my wife a 10-hour class. Oh.

Meat selection. But she's a good student. Oh, yeah. Okay, because she's learning quickly. So she brought back when she first started getting it, she brought back some trash. I wouldn't feed the dog. She doesn't get pretty good now.

She knows now. Oh, yeah. Worst thing I was all about that marbling. I was going to make hamburgers and she picked up the meat and it was that 93-7 garbage. Oh, yeah, sloppers-stopper. And I was, I go, what is this? And she goes, well, it's healthier.

And I said, nope, yep, that's out. I went back to the store. If we're talking about like browning, grilling, frying hamburger meat, you just left health out to winter. Like that's not, no. Why does that exist? It shouldn't. It shouldn't.

Like turkey, get rid of it. Yeah, just give me turkey or bacon. Make a choice. I'll take either one. I don't try to mix it. I don't want the combination. Yeah, don't mix it. Health food.

Well, I won't bake it. I won't bacon. Yeah. When you go healthy, you then forfeit the right to good things. things. It is what it is. You forfeit the right. Yeah.

Don't dress up your turkey like my bacon. That's fine. I like that. Don't dress up. Yeah. I'm kind of with you. I know. But you can have good things.

And I use ground chicken and ground turkey and place of ground beef on some things because I think it actually kind of makes it better. But I'm talking about little small plates like when you're making an appetizers for things. Or d' hors d' hors d'oe. Yeah. Yeah, because generally when I'm cooking those, then what's coming after, it's got enough richness for all of it.

Amen. Because the butter and fats coming and play on the main dish. But one of the best hamburgers in the whole wide world is old stones, like, what do you use? 60, 40. That's not really good. Well, if they did have it, I'd buy it. Yeah.

If I'm on a grill a hamburger on the grill. Oh, fatty. It's so good. Old fat burger. 73, 27 is the highest. lean hamburger meat ain't take goods yeah stone you eat stone hamburger it's going down you I tried to do that and I couldn't figure out how you did it and I just said you know what that's a stone thing I'm just going to stick well I learned a hard way too you only eat

yeah that's right it was a meat you'll be belching for a day and a half yeah do not go dose yeah those fat burgers it's kind of like going to fogo de chow no he got that it'll hurt you yeah he got that recipe from like dude wipe's website or something yeah Because you double dip on that rascal, and that's over. Which I have. I have done it. But, you know. And you go home and are miserable all that long.

Mm-hmm. Because you over-hate. You over and dole. You taste that smoke for about three days. Everything in moderation. Well, let's take our last break. We'll get in that mailbag when we come back. All right.

We're back. Computerless email segment. I don't mind it. I'm going to try it. Yeah. But I did have a picture I wanted to show y'all. Hello at dot callroom.com. That's where you email me.

Hello. Email me some weird stuff and I may read it. Yeah. The weird or the better. Especially if you start it with, please do not read this. Yeah, that's a good idea. That's a good start.

Somebody put a subject line that said, Ray Drummond is trash and I was so upset. And they were like, I'm just kidding. I wanted you to just really see this email. I was like, good call. There you go. Be clever.

Hunter, can you throw that picture up? Gail sent this to us. Hunter, have you ever worked a computer? We've got to be able to see it, man. I'm just kidding Oh he's making it smaller Hunter zoom in Hunter zoom in

Zoom She's back Hunter you're not You're just making the black part This was how it was sent Okay Zoom Hunter there's a Zoom button up there

I can't see that far away There we go There you know Now zoom in on her Because I'm way more interested In what's going on With the dog

Yeah I think so What are those dogs Anyway They were sending in The Fun Duck Dynasty Memabilia And Gail this is great of your sister and if Hunter ever learns out of work.

Look at Si. Imagine getting home saying, boy, I'm ready to get cozy and you put sigh on. But the best part of this picture, you are correct, Martin. Hunter,

I'm going to need you to somehow figure out how to make the picture go left or right. I don't know which way you're looking at this. The other way, that way, Hunter. Sideways. You're going up and down. The thing with the tail, Hunter.

I need to see it. Oh, wow. We're looking at her shoe. The thing was the tail. The stupid part disappeared. Hunter, you're the, oh, wow. I can't see. There's anything.

I got to giggling at that lady posing with that thing, that blanket. And her dog's just wrestling. She is unbothered. So apparently they do that all the time. That's the most Duck Dynasty fan photo I think I've ever seen. Picture with sigh on a blanket, on a clothesline, drying out with dogs just wrestling in the back. Yeah, I mean, that's us right there.

I love it. Those dogs brought me great joy. There's the greatest folks in America right there, buddy. Mm-hmm. I'm here to tell you. Amen. All right, and then we got another one. Well, don't send it to Hunter.

Yeah. No, there's no photo, thank goodness. He's overtaking a fence to it. You don't understand. I spent 15 minutes trying to go about that quickly so I can be fast about it. 15 minutes. God. Got it down.

And then the moment. Hunter, is, I know, I make this job. look easy. It's tough. Anyway, Mama L. emails in and says she needed advice on her 18-year-old son, all of which we've been at some point. He's graduated high school and has joined the Iron Workers Union. Okay. That's great. Yeah. He's just now getting started in the union, so he hasn't got a chance to go out and work on jobs yet. I had him a job at my work, but he decided to not take it and do side jobs. And quotation marks are there. landscaping, falling junk off, etc. Side jobs aren't guaranteed, but you can't tell him that.

He has a truck payment and insurance that he is responsible for. So how do I convince him to work a real job? Side jobs are real job until he gets called out by the union. Very interesting. Mother's son dynamic. Well, I would say the boy sounds like he's hustling, which is a good thing. He's actively working, which this day and age. hard to find hard to find so be thankful that he's out there at least sweating earning a dollar

he'll figure it out i just you know give you boys 18 years old let him figure it out here's here's my advice to you time is on your side daughter time will will show him the way time and a lot of mistakes time and experience will teach him but side jobs but side jobs often pay way better than a real job. And it generally not. Yeah, but it's not for sure. Martin. Martin, did you just say something about cash only?

I just, I'm just saying. Martin? Look, the federal government don't know Jimmy Ray is still alive. All I'm sorry. Jimmy Ray had been doing side jobs. His life is a side job. It's a side job. It's a right.

Okay, well. A quote Phil Robertson. Red, what's you got against steady work? we're going against what we were previously saying now you got a double word because he's going to turn into jimmy ready well no hey look yeah i mean maybe but look look he's working he's chasing he's not settling yeah i'm cool with it at 18 why do you need what is a real job like go clock in clock out like he probably makes more hauling off other people's jump than he would make wherever at a grocery store Yeah, or wherever he's working.

All my friends when I was about that age made, I was at the grocery store. Now, if you, that it was, in the perfect world, you can do both, right? You can work the hours there and then you can do the side job. Then you're really hustling. Then you like Hunter over there editing short films while you work here for us and do all kinds of things. Right? Not at the same time. Not at the same time.

No, that's what I'm saying. Oh, I thought that was just a shot fired. No. No. No, no. That's why I prefaced it if you can do it where your times don't conflict with each other. Like that's, I mean, I encourage, like, Jordan that works in our video department, he does outside video stuff outside of here that's not during work hours.

Jared's the same way. Like, we all do stuff. I mean, I speak on the weekend. Side does appearances. We all do side jobs. We still do side jobs. So I would encourage him to find a way to do both. This is my encouragement.

but don't but don't give up the hustle of six things one thing mom's not understanding here and stone hit on it okay at least the kid is working yeah and sweating yeah okay that's the key today it's a novelty yeah that man there he's a general manager yeah my dad goes on and on about uh he if whenever he was uh my age or younger he could he could only dream of being able to like drive a truck and deliver stuff. UPS, FedEx, Fet, name one. Oh, no. Couldn't get that job unless you knew somebody that knew somebody.

Yeah. And now, them dudes make stupid money. Yeah. And it's all because they're willing to drive all day and sweat and get on and off a truck. And I was said, during the summer, freeze during the winter.

And he's like, now they can't get enough people. He goes, if my age, so this kid, Iron Workers Union, doing side jobs, I think he's got something figured out.

I applaud him for a good start. unlike mom who's worried about him. I'm applauding him for a solid start at life. Mom, you did a good job. Yeah, yeah. And look, didn't she say that, like, he was offered a job at her place? Well, she wanted him to work now.

The way I understood it. She wanted if she had a job for him at her where she worked. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Yeah, and he turned it down. But, hey, I'm a mama's boy. I didn't want to go work for him. Yeah. Like, I know my mom.

Yeah, she's slaved over. that's a little bit of an aggressive turn but I'm just saying there's a strong I have a strong belief in the separation of church and state so to speak same time with church and parents I mean separation of parents and kids what are we talking about offering in the Lord separate there you go separate but apart yeah separate but apart boy whatever it is I'm not gonna voice anything about working with mom I just left there we both no but it wasn't your first job amen no it was not your first job I would have never made it if I would have never made it if I I would have went to where my dad at 22. I'd be dead. Totally a huge believer in going back.

I'm a huge believer in going back. But get out there and work other stuff first to figure out what that is when you get back there. Big Dave might have killed me and mom if I would. We'd all be dead. Yeah. He would not be leading the Friday night group. No. He may be a member.

Fear Big Dave and keep his commandments. But he wouldn't. He wouldn't be. I don't know that he'd be the lead. He's a loving father, but it's kind of scary. are we ready speaking of big Dave he sent me this this morning

2 Corinthians 418 so he fixed our eyes not on what is seen but on what is unseen since what is seen is temporary but what is unseen is eternal eternal and hey I'm going with the E Big E boys

Big E he said What's the big E? Eternity I like it I'll see you there Save me a spot That's it Didn't expect you to miss that one Okay we'll see y'all next time

right here on the duck call room. We're out.
