Starting point is 00:00:00 I felt like we're getting ready to bury, sigh. Now, now, size is going to get this surgery, and he's going to feel 20 years younger. Hey, yesterday I wore this thing for an hour
Starting point is 00:00:17 and didn't even realize it. What's that, your oxygen? Yeah. Yeah, I know. But the doctor said that was okay. Well, don't I just come here and sit down
Starting point is 00:00:24 and put it on for a minute to get me it? And then I looked up, and the podcast was over, and I said, Good beef, I wore this thing the whole time. You're going to wear it today,
Starting point is 00:00:33 or are you taking it off? No, I think turning this mask on. Oh, I ain't going to turn it off. Well, I was beginning to wonder because when you look across the deal and see a man with oxygen tube, flowers. I mean, I feel like we're getting ready to put you in a box. Hey, he's on his way out. Hey, them ain't great flowers.
Starting point is 00:00:47 They can put on my grave flowers. Cy, those aren't grave flowers. Oh, those are different. Put them on the grave at grave flowers. Those are different. Hey, I bought my mom on probably $40 worth of gray flowers. And then got in trouble for it. Well, and then the Cajun down there said, well,
Starting point is 00:01:05 You do know them with gray flowers. I said, no, I just thought they were real pretty. That's why I bought them to mama. And I said, she can't see them if she's dead. Well, why not give them to her when she's alive where she'd smell them and say, boy, them are pretty. I can agree with that. Cy, you want to introduce the man beside you? Yeah, I sure can.
Starting point is 00:01:23 We got a guest today, guys. Special guest. I'm fired up, boy. If you didn't notice. It's Mr. Murray, okay. He is the guru in our new treasure hunting family. show that we have streaming on Fox Nation
Starting point is 00:01:39 or Fox News or whatever it is. Fox Nation. Fox Nation. Okay, I get it right here. You got it. You got it. Anyway, hey, welcome, Murray. What's that, Murray? That's a present for you. Oh, well, what is it, sir? Well, you remember when we went to Kansas? Oh, that's fixed to be my
Starting point is 00:01:57 piece of the meteor right. You've been left out. Yeah, my nephew left me out, flap. You just napped me out in a cold, I was wet and cold. No. And Jason just didn't care. No, he had nothing to do with this. The feelings mutual between y'all.
Starting point is 00:02:13 That's it, hey. He got the old rusty piece. You got the top shelf. Oh, this is the cat's meow. Oh, wow. Look up, look up. Good. You hold it, just don't drop it.
Starting point is 00:02:28 Wow. But that's a slice of a palisite meteorite showing all the olivine crystals that's in it. Well, I can see where it would be worth money. Because, hey, that's pretty. No matter how you turn it. Yeah. You ought to make it into a necklace.
Starting point is 00:02:44 No, no. I wish I had enough of one that I could make me twin pistols with it. Well, I'm serious. My daughter's... That thing's gorgeous. My daughter's sitting over her frowning because she wanted that piece for... She wanted to make a necklace out of it. Well, do you want to give it?
Starting point is 00:03:02 back to your dog? No, no, the man's... Well, hey, I'll be game. I ain't, yeah, I mean, I just go on it. My guy is cutting... He's cutting her a piece? He's on it, so... Well, thank you, sir. You will. Oh, speaking of beauty, look at this. Oh, Lord. Them are yellow roses. Look, and guess what was on PBS
Starting point is 00:03:20 last night? The title of the episode was the green planet. Huh. And look, that's what it was about. But our planet's blue. There's a green one. Yeah, but what they had on last now was called the green planet. And it was about flowers, and it was, look, it was about flowers that grow under the water.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Okay, but they don't bloom out under water. They grow, and then they, it's like a snake. They stick their head above the water, bloom out. The bird and the bees and all the insects come and do their little thing, okay. but it was people don't realize how delicate and how just truly amazing a flower is. Hey, this is where we get all our fruit, all our vegetables, all the stuff that we eat. And look, God has created so much vegetation. That's what the show was about last night.
Starting point is 00:04:26 It was amazing, okay? the Venus fly trap there's a flower you know but it's a it's a flower that imprisons you know bad bad uh insects so I've been watching it
Starting point is 00:04:42 oh no no hey it was amazing to watch it so Murray let me tell you something that you might not know about the podcast so Cy comes up with a bunch of crazy stuff and then we fact check him and most of the time he's right you know I'd say 90
Starting point is 00:04:57 99% of the decision. Exactly right. You mean more than 50%? He's, maybe. He's got a scary memory when it comes to watching features on BDSUS. Well, hey, here's the deal. Philip is the one that said it. Hey, if things, if something is known.
Starting point is 00:05:15 What is known is manageable. Well, we ask you. He's not going to believe this. No, we covered this yesterday. I covered this yesterday. And they call me Martin Mastin. Oh, come on. Come on now. Come on.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Did you Google it? No, I didn't. No, I don't want to be proven wrong. I don't need to prove him right again. I'm going to tell Murray just because he don't know. So we were talking about what is known as manageable. We were helping somebody with a situation, you know, who had written. As for advice.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Yeah. And then I said, I don't remember where I learned that, some of my schooling or training or something. I don't remember. So I typed in Google, who said what is known as manageable? And then it said, Sirenity. Uncle Si, and it showed the page number and where it was. Uncle sigh said, what is known is manageable. No, no, I told him that.
Starting point is 00:06:06 I still don't believe it. He said, come on, come on. You just, you got to be. I said, hey, look, I'll tell you, Philip said it. And when I asked him, Philip, where did you get that words of wisdom? Well, then he started thinking. He said, I think I got out of one of my professors in college when I was at, you know, you know. And then he said, no.
Starting point is 00:06:25 He said, I finally Googled it. And he said, guess where it came from? I said, and when he said, he pointed at me, and I was, oh, get out of here. Does I have a ghost writer on that book? I'm going to give him to credit. Whoever size ghostwriter was on Cy Rizzi. But, hey, the ghost writer spent seven days with me. And here's what Stone said about when he had to be the voice.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Oh, the first book. Yeah, for the audio. For the audio. Yeah. He said he ain't got over to this day. I know. You know, yeah. Because Stone can sound a lot like size,
Starting point is 00:07:00 especially when he was reading all that. Because he would be saying something and they'd say, uh-uh, you got to do it again. That ain't the way he'd say it. In case y'all are curious out there, there are five episodes of the Green Planet. And hey, if you get a chance to watch them, do it, it is fascinating.
Starting point is 00:07:19 And this is by no means an ad. I was just curious on what the Green Planet was. No, no, no. I had to look it up. Look, it was awesome. They had one thing, okay? They're five hours long. Well, no, no, this was an hour last night.
Starting point is 00:07:31 He's got time to watch it. 292 minutes. Look. I mean, I know his day's pretty jammed. Yo, you fish a lot, so you know about floating lily pads. Uh-huh. Hey, they got one. I don't remember where it was that didn't say, I don't think.
Starting point is 00:07:45 You must have watched episode two, Water Worlds. Well, maybe that was it. March. But anyway, look, hey, this thing comes out. It comes up just like a little snake head. and then it starts unfolding. I mean, just think like the size of this airhead when it starts. Well, as soon as it does this and lays out flat,
Starting point is 00:08:07 then this baby is like a pancake that somebody won't quit pouring a batter. It just 50 foot. You know, hey, a bald eagle could lighten mock on this sucker or a big, or a big nuterat or a big beaver either one. Oh, my goodness. You know, and then it turns into a beautiful flower and tracks the birds and the bees and all the good stuff. Well, look, hey, let's take our first break when we get back.
Starting point is 00:08:35 You can tell everybody about the birds and bees. And look, when we get back, I've got a question from Murray. 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
Starting point is 00:08:54 makes such a good product, baby. Ain't it good? It's so good. Our friend, Sao Robertson would say, bye 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,
Starting point is 00:09:07 grab whatever was left in case you were late in the day. And you never really know where that beef comes to them. But with Tritels beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Tritales 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
Starting point is 00:09:26 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.
Starting point is 00:09:52 I know in size case Christine loves it, which is just a, she doesn't eat meat. She ain't a big meat easier, folks. Yeah. Just go to trybeef.com slash. That's tribeef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. We're back. Murray actually welcome because I know side just got on his green planet flower ramble.
Starting point is 00:10:13 He does this about once a month, so it's fine. But I think it is super cool. Forget the treasure hunting. Do y'all know what else Murray is? Which is awesome. Which is awesome. Oh, yeah. But do y'all know what else Murray is responsible for?
Starting point is 00:10:28 I know several things. This is a big deal if you're duck commander. Yeah, that's right. This is a big deal. Oh, I had forgot about that. You did what? I had forgotten. Well, hey, just every time I get with him, I learn something about it that flabbergats me.
Starting point is 00:10:45 This man single-handedly changed duck hunting forever. That's true. That's not. I mean, you had a business. I mean, you had a business. partner but but it come from you what did you do Mary I want everybody I want you to tell everybody
Starting point is 00:11:01 what you did now they're going to be a lot of people that's going to blame me for some things so just get ready for that that's fine that goes with the territory yeah that's fine that goes with every pioneer so you're saying whether you like killing ducks or not yeah yeah somebody's going to give me the
Starting point is 00:11:18 there's plenty of naysayers out there and there's plenty of people that hate your invention I did, boys. Well, the people that hated it most was the one that didn't have one in the beginning. Because these guys, they would leave their shotguns in the back of their truck and take their mojo in. I guess I can say, man. There you go.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Inside and sleep with it at night. Guarding that baby. Make sure it doesn't happen to it. You could buy another shotgun. You couldn't get a mojo back then. And so it was in short supply. And, you know, there was a lot of things that came together. A lot of people in the background that you never know about that contributed all that.
Starting point is 00:12:01 A lot of the guys were church members that helped produce the first run of them, you know. Dane and his family, I could name a whole bunch of them, Johnson, Chad and him. Yeah. So, I mean, the idea, I didn't invent the idea, but I did put it in a package that was, was functional and would work and was economical to build. You moved on it is what you did. It was a timing thing just like everything. It was the right thing at the right time.
Starting point is 00:12:34 And it just happened over a few days. I mean, it just happened. It was a God thing. Well, I know one thing. The first year we've used them. Wacking stack. Them suckers would be up there and look like mosquitoes. Yeah, they almost put duck call makers out of business.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Yeah, and they look down and they'd be like, in planes in the in the uh war two that they see when they do it on them it here they come so in case for those of you that haven't picked up on what we're talking about murray started the mojo mallard the the mojo company that is now mojo outdoors that does a lot of things that we're still business partners with with terry and chuck and all the crew over there murray murray was the idea man that they got it all together. So love him, hate him indifferent. I know spinning wings have a lot of controversy
Starting point is 00:13:28 in the duck hunting world these days, but it does make duck hunting easier for folks that don't necessarily know a whole lot about it, especially if you're starting out. They are, this day and age, they used to be like a fail safe. You could put out a spinning wing decoy and sit back, turn your hat around, hold on,
Starting point is 00:13:46 here they come. Now they're just a tool. to be used on the right days, right conditions, and all of that. And now you've got to be real selective how you use them. Yeah. Okay, because, hey, the wildlife have got wires to it. But when Murray was talking about making them in a garage and people at church putting them together,
Starting point is 00:14:04 buddy, just if you had a puddle of water and you could turn that thing on if a duck flew within two miles of being able to see that rascal, he was coming. He was coming. That may be why I accidentally shot one down at fields and never got invited back. Oh, that happened all the time. Okay, well, that wasn't it then.
Starting point is 00:14:20 I never did. I never did. I never did it, but I always got the blame for it. Oh, you shot the mojo? You shot the mojo? I said it could have been when I shot the mojo. I got a question for Murray. I've known Murray for years and years.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Murray, have you always been an inventor? I mean, since you were young or what? Just interested in it? Yeah, I don't know if you'd call me an inventor or not, but... I saw the Big Sheila on the... the Fox Nation. Yeah, I've done some things, but, yeah, I mean, I try to build a rocket about, you don't remember when Sputnik came along, do you, the first satellite that the Russian
Starting point is 00:15:00 put up here? Did you know that? Did the man just say he tried to build a rocket? Oh, I did build a rocket. He did build a rocket. Wait, that's just normal? Well, the principal's wild. The principal didn't think so when it blew up on the launching pad.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Hey, separate these right now, guys. Oh, no. Get them apart. one of my days in school. I was always good since the principal offers for one thing or other. Now, Murray, I found out, what's the principal office about, hey, Rocket didn't do good on the
Starting point is 00:15:30 launching pad, boys. Zucker blew up. I love inventors, man, because they got good stories. Well, no, no. Redneck. Huh? Redneck, hey, leave it to a redneck to come up with, if you hadn't got one, and somebody
Starting point is 00:15:46 says, you know, man, that would be good to have that. Duck tape. Yeah, yeah. Hey, look, don't knock duct tape. Hey, we use that stuff on choppers in Nong. When the blades were getting more, duct tape that baby. What did you use WD40 for? Well, no, hey, everything else.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Hey, if something froze up, fill it full of WD40. Give it a while. So let me take it. What to talk about? Go ahead. This man built a rock. I know. I mean, how did we, how did I hijack that?
Starting point is 00:16:23 Like, this man built a rocket that blew up on the launch pad. Rocket builder, rocket man. And that's a great, what was that, that show, October Sky was like one of my favorite movies because it was about them boys building them rockets up in West Virginia. The school house, that must have been based off Murray's life. He's up there building rockets in high school. I like it. So I don't know if you know this either, Martin.
Starting point is 00:16:45 But in the newspaper was a picture of Murray. flying in the air in his contraption that he built what happened oh no no he's done made a plane well he's so humble about it I mean yeah we I flew across the earth three times but I mean Murray I'm tell you right now if you're gonna tell your story around these two clowns you're going to speak up otherwise you're going to get Sy's version of your story so yeah that's second hand and in about three years he'll steal it for his own and he's already stolen all of his wife's stories.
Starting point is 00:17:22 And changed them. Go ahead, Murray. I'm sorry. Tell us about the plane. And Jerry Clowers. I didn't. I didn't. Shoot up here, Monkers, boys. One of the case of a leaf. There we go.
Starting point is 00:17:38 I just assembled this plane. It was made in California and shipped to me in a box, and I'd just put it together. And it was an ultra-light airplane, and I flew it till I wore the engine out. Man, you're talking about being, like having a garden in the angel. I definitely have one. How high did you go and how fast would it go?
Starting point is 00:17:56 Well, I used to fly around, like, get probably 10,000 feet, and then turn the motor off and just sail around. He did it stay up there for 15 minutes and just... Did you have a parachute in case something went wrong? No. No. Siles there, he said, no, I saw him. He didn't have no parachute, boys.
Starting point is 00:18:16 He's a darn devil. No, Murray said all I had was a resurrection, son. I was going with that. Hey. Oh, man. Well. But one time I'd get down low and I'd, if you had a pull rope, you know, and you pull a cord, you know, and it. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:31 It didn't crank. Uh-oh. That was all of it? Well, I did a dead stick landing out in the field, but, you know, it wasn't a big deal. But it was my first and only time, and I never want to do it again. No big deal. I wonder why they call it dead stick. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:53 They don't call it live stick. Yeah. I think that's because, I bet that's because in the drawings of how to do it, they used a stick man. So when they was teaching what happens to him? He dead. Dead stick. There you can go. Right there. Anyway, let's take a break.
Starting point is 00:19:08 We'll be back right after. These boys are wearing me out. 90% of all treadmills are just used as like an extension of your closet. I mean, it's all. Everyone I see got clothes hanging off of it. There's a clothes hanger. That's all they are. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:26 You know what we're going to have to do is we're going to have to keep these two guys apart away from the show. We are. But no, this is, well, I mean, it's almost kind of like looking in a weird mirror over there. Like, it's bizarre. Look at it. I didn't know it. I'm sitting beside Coohey and Luke here. Well, yeah, you got that right.
Starting point is 00:19:42 Y'all going to do bucket list. Oh, my goodness. Man, that bad boy. Who's your cut out. So while we was talking on break, Murray informed us that his first prototype spinning wing decoy was made from a treadmill motor. He took his wife's treadmill motor. Wait a minute. Was your wife walking on it when you took it?
Starting point is 00:20:02 This is like, this is one of those 95% deals. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. He doesn't learn it from Si. It was, in fact, a treadmill motor, but I didn't steal Sheila's treadmill. He stole your neighbors? Love your neighbor. One of my neighbors actually lunged. it to me because he had made a small metal lathe.
Starting point is 00:20:24 He builds knives, and he had built this motor. It's a variable speed motor like a treadmill. You can vary the speed. Well, that was one of those motors. And he had built the lathe out of it. And so he loaned me a spare that he had. And that's how the first spinning wing duck decoy came into being. Incredible.
Starting point is 00:20:46 Can you imagine living in Murray's neighborhood here in the middle of the night? can I help you with something? Hey, you ain't got a battery, do you? Yeah. I got one in my treadmill. Y'all gonna be using that? I need to build something. I need a battery and a decoy.
Starting point is 00:21:01 And you're like... And you're like, for what? Well, I'm about to make something, boys. It is. What's cool about the mojo is like you look at it, and most people can't imagine life without it now. I mean, we're at that generation. It's been in there so long.
Starting point is 00:21:18 So it's like, but you look at it and you're like, man, this thing's really simple. Why did it take so long to design it? But then you're like, you look, then you open a hatch on him and you're like, oh wait, this is a pretty smart cat come up with this thing. So I didn't know Murray been buying airplanes and boxes, having them shipped here, putting them together,
Starting point is 00:21:35 making crash landings and cotton fields. He's building rockets and blowing them up on the launch pad. I just, Murray, are these like even in your top 10? I mean, where are we out on your list of things you've done? Probably the worst thing ever. got into was when I got teamed up with this gentleman. Oh, my goodness. That happens.
Starting point is 00:21:56 And one thing about Si, he is the catalyst for whatever he does. Boy, ain't he? He launches, he, he, I give him the credit for launching Duck Family Treasure because without him, we wouldn't have any, we low energy anyway, but we wouldn't have, but when Sy comes on the scent, boy, things start to happen. and I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but that's the way it is. Yeah, he's like that magnesium he was throwing in that pipe. Oh, no. Just like it.
Starting point is 00:22:24 No, he's like that rocket. That was actually fun. Or some carbide he'd put in there or something, like a boom. What was fun? Using magnesium and throwing it down a pipe that had water in the bottom of it. Yeah, well.
Starting point is 00:22:36 One else would have a handful of gravel. The old one would drop the magnesium, throw the gravel in, and then try to kill a bird flying over the field. Good, great. Look. And survive. Yeah, and I think it was a two-inch pipe, galvanized pipe.
Starting point is 00:22:50 So we're shooting about a 40-bore. Yeah, that's about an eight-gauge here. Two-inch pipe, that's a big and something. Hey, we was getting after it. Unbelievable. Unreal. Well, Mary, what's the, now, we'll get back on the treasure stuff because I know that's a cool thing going right now.
Starting point is 00:23:07 What's the most interesting find you've stumbled across in your career of treasure hunting, if we will? Yeah, probably. I mean, I found a lot of neat things, and some things you would just laugh at me if I told you some of the things. Probably the biggest find I've ever made was a meteorite, and it was like a 70-pounder, and it was like 7 or 8 feet deep. Really? Monetarily, it was the biggest single thing I found. But my favorite thing is a little bitty bell like they used on a carriage or something.
Starting point is 00:23:42 It was like a 1700s, mid-1,700 little bell. It's just a little brass belt. Just love it. I don't know why I love it so much. It's just so neat. I just think about who lost it. It was up in Mississippi at a crossing of the Mississippi River that people used to use going when they were going west. It was, and somebody was going, had left the east somewhere and was headed to California, who knows what, going to go prospecting or something, and they lost it up there.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Yeah, that's pretty neat. 17-hundred. Yeah. Yeah, that's right there with the duck band. Like, to me, the band on a duck getting near as special as the story. Because then that's the first thing I do is go back through my mind and like,
Starting point is 00:24:27 what all has this rascal seen? Once you see, you know, especially if it's an older one, like, you know, 10, 11-year-old, been on there, you're like, man, you want to talk about slick. No, no. He made it a while, so. No, what got me, we killed, me and Phil killed a wood duck,
Starting point is 00:24:40 and I don't remember who killed him. I think I claimed it. Shocker. And look, we sent it in, and they sent us the information. They had abandoned that wood duck the evening before in Seattle, Washington. And we killed him the following afternoon in Louisiana. 95%. They got married.
Starting point is 00:25:00 No, no. No, no. That's like, what, 4,000 miles, something like that? Unreal. That sucker caught a tail wind if he made it that far over or not. Did he ever? Did he ever? Because, hey, you know, and what, you're funny.
Starting point is 00:25:12 It's funny about that because when it started, you know, there was a big northern coming and Menfield looked and, you know, go to the old river in Gillum, Louisiana. So we jumped in and the Falcon raced up there. It didn't have but about an hour. Got there and got in a little old inlet of them on the lake. And here comes. We thought there's blackjacks because there was decoy. You know, so we've, pah, palpah, wow, wow, you know.
Starting point is 00:25:37 One of them finally floated up against the boat, and I picked it up and said, hey, no, these a giant wood ducks. Because they were huge. Welcome to our world. So one of them had a band. We sent it in and like, hey, found out they had banded that Joker
Starting point is 00:25:55 and the afternoon turned him and loose the afternoon before and we killed him that next afternoon in Louisiana. 24-hour trip. That's pretty incredible. Hey, I don't know. He was, you know.
Starting point is 00:26:09 There you go. It was amazing. Philip, we are. round it about two fantastic stories yeah i mean where we're gonna do and i love it i tell you what we're gonna do right now is we're gonna take our next break and we'll be back right after the movie right oh boy well you found one meteor right there was 70 pounds 70 pound yeah around here no up there in kansas yeah about 70 pound piece of rock no telling what it was when it entered the atmosphere but 70 by the time you've what are them things made of for the most part like
Starting point is 00:26:45 Iron and nickel mixed together. Yeah. And these phalocytes have a parado in them, which is the August birthstone. It's a semi-precious stone. Man, that's my birth stone then. It's the August, it's the August birth stone. Yeah, that's me. There you go.
Starting point is 00:27:02 August 26. So you're a peridot guy. Yeah, look at me. I didn't even know it. I'm a paradoe didn't know it. Parago didn't know it. Parago didn't know it. But that's, so that's what they're made out of.
Starting point is 00:27:13 That's... Well, there's three kids. Three major classifications of meteorites. You got stone, which is made out of rock. Just rock. And then you have iron, which is solid iron. And then you have the palisites, which are both mixed. They call them stony irons.
Starting point is 00:27:29 It's a mixture, about a 50-50 mixture of peridot and iron nickel. I got you. That's pretty cool. 70 pounds, 70 pounds, 7 to 8 feet up under the ground. And you found it. That's neat. And I dug it up with a shovel. Oh my goodness
Starting point is 00:27:46 Two days to dig it up Two days Good great And we lowered this little Me and the farmer Lored this little Little scientist That owns a museum close by
Starting point is 00:27:56 We lowered him down in it head first And he chipped off a piece of it And then we pulled him back up out of there If we'd have left We'd have dropped him He'd be there today And he took it back to his Museum and he tested it for nickel
Starting point is 00:28:12 That's how you tell if it's really a meteorite or not. Earth doesn't have that high percentage of nickel, you know, in iron. So he went and tested and he said, yeah, go ahead and dig it up because it's 100% it's a meteorite. Oh, that's cool. All that stuff falling from up there, man. That's pretty wild.
Starting point is 00:28:30 I just know that when they brought that one back they found in Kansas that weighed 24.1 pounds. When I helped it, it was crazy. My hand started tingling. Yeah. No, no, I'm serious. James, I went on for like 15 minutes. Hey, 100% I felt the same thing
Starting point is 00:28:50 the first one I ever touched. No, no, I'm serious. I was looking and I'm saying, what in the world is something wrong with me? Is this thing got a disease or something? I said, because I'm tingling and it's running up my arms. 100%.
Starting point is 00:29:03 What's that from? Hey, that's just the way it affected me. And I said, because murdery had said, hey, do you know, you understand, you're holding a piece of space rock. Yeah, and I'm kind of going, and then it starts tangling, and it's going up in my arms, and I'm going, whoa, it just ain't giving me some kind of disease or something. Special powers. You was basically having first date jitters.
Starting point is 00:29:29 No, no, I'm serious. It affected me, and I said, I can't believe this stupid thing. It's a piece of rock. No. But it came from space. That's why, you know. You want to talk about some miles travel. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:42 Because there ain't no way to know where he comes from. I don't guess. And look, there's thousands of them up there floating around right now. They have meteorite showers. Murray, how many of, when we see a meteor shower, because, I mean, from time to time, you can go out and watch those. Do a lot of them make it to the planet? No, those aren't actually, those are pieces of a comet.
Starting point is 00:30:06 The showers are formed when a, A comet comes by the path that the Earth is going to be later on. And when the Earth crosses that path of that comet, when it comes this close to the sun, it's losing grains of sand and dust. A comet's mostly just dust and small gravel and water. And when it evaporates, those little things you see, that's just pieces of probably a grain of sand or maybe a pea-sized particle that's coming from the comet. So it's not really, it'll never reach the ground because a meteorite loses 90% of its mass just on the reentry process.
Starting point is 00:30:49 So if you got a 10-pounder, you know, it started out. It's a Honda. Yeah. Hyundai. So that 70-pound one. He was showing up big when he started coming in. I bet the boys that were out there on that prairie and saw that thing come through there said, get out the way. Boys, we got one.
Starting point is 00:31:06 But if it's buried eight foot deep, ain't no tons, how long have been there? Yeah. I mean, it was 300 tons to start with. The main one was 300 tons. Yeah. Wow. You, Cy trying to do that math. Look at him.
Starting point is 00:31:21 They're about to be smoke coming out. He's got some hours. Hold on. We're about to have gears grinding. I'm going back in time when we were in Mexico, New Mexico, looking up when I seen that giant planet on fire. okay they actually broke up right above us and a little piece a giant ball going on fire with a little bit of one behind it going to remember that story no no i got chill bucks on just
Starting point is 00:31:50 remembered it we've seen 17 different whatever you want to call them falling stars whatever planet but the one thing about the one this thing was humongous and solid it looked like the sun except it was night. That's what it looked like. It looked like the sun. So was that a planet? Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Giant planet. It was on fire. You know, and Phil looked up and he said, Boy, that's a giant planet. And he said, I wonder where it's going to hit. Was it coming down or was it going? No, no. He's just going across the sky, just above us.
Starting point is 00:32:28 We've seen 17 different ones in a 45-minute period throwing out decoys on the Rio Grande. Yeah, well, a lot of meteorites come, well, they're not meteorites unless they hit the ground. They're meteorites when they're in the air. Yeah, meteorites. Uh-oh. So, but a lot of them don't enter, don't never hit the earth. They just skimmed through the atmosphere high up and just keep on going because they got so much mass and so much velocity.
Starting point is 00:32:52 So you could have seen that's, that's, that's. No, no, this was amazing to watch. That's all I know. It should have been, the nose part of it. It should have been like on fire and like licking down the side. Well, no, no. this whole thing, I'm telling you, all it looked like was the sun
Starting point is 00:33:08 going across the night sky. And I mean, it was gigantic. And then when it got above us, a little piece broke off the back of it. And now you're looking at a giant one. And your comparable, say a big, huge beach ball with a softball behind it. You know, they break up.
Starting point is 00:33:28 They shatter into pieces from the pressure of the abilation and the burning process. They'll break apart and they'll... Well, I had a discussion with one of the top gun candidates that went through. Yeah. Okay, and he goes on a... God, I can't think of name of it. But anyway, he was out in the plane flying it, doing some...
Starting point is 00:33:56 Maneuvers. Meneuvers. Okay, in the Utah desert, okay? Yeah. And they had told him, do not go on. over 800 miles per hour. Well, he went a little faster of that, and he come back. And when he's landing, the guy's doing the sticks with him, getting them landing, you know.
Starting point is 00:34:14 And the guy doing the sticks is going, then the guy gets out of the plane and says, yeah, I know I'm in trouble. He went so fast that he burnt the paint off of the plane he's driving. In other words, they're going to have to repaint this back. Okay. He doesn't got so The friction doesn't burn the pain off of it You know so that's what it was That's what we reminded me when we were talking about
Starting point is 00:34:39 These meteorites burning up You know He said, all right No no, because hey When we started talking The guy said I said, by the way He said, what was you flying?
Starting point is 00:34:50 He said F-16 I said, what speed is it going? He said, Mark 2 And I said, wait a minute, hold it You know Translate that in the mileage for me miles per hour because I said
Starting point is 00:35:04 Mach 2 don't tell me no you remember what 12 oh yeah no no it's 1,000 uh what 1200 miles an hour well it's like 1,335 miles an hour it's probably yeah you probably
Starting point is 00:35:19 for which one mock 2 Maverick went Mach 10 0.4 that's right we saw did you see the new Maverick movie no I see but we did watch Elvis. He did watch Elvis, which, you know, I enjoyed it.
Starting point is 00:35:34 But every time I watch it, every time you bring up Elvis, I get mad. Because his so-called manager and his people that should have took care of and let him kill himself. You know, they're running to death. What's Mark 2? I think, I want to say 1335 is what? 1534. Oh, that's what he? 1,535.
Starting point is 00:35:55 Yeah. 1534.54. Yeah. And I said, wait a minute. I said, wait a minute. One thousand, five hundred and thirty-five hours and I was. And you met this guy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:06 At an event we went to? Oh, no. Yeah, up in, oh, gosh. Tennessee? Tennessee. Yeah. Well, I was sitting on the couch and I talked to him about 30 minutes. And when he told me, yeah, I'm driving this thing yet.
Starting point is 00:36:19 I said, then your decisions, you can't say, oh, let me see. I said, because the times you said, oh, let me see, you're 500 miles. You missed it. Yeah, you missed it. Well, there's a bunch of different ones, yeah. That's one. One says 1522. It's fast.
Starting point is 00:36:37 Yeah, yeah. One thousand and five hundred miles hour. Yeah, it's real fast. Yeah, fast. Less than a blink of an eye fast. Yeah. You're talking nanoseconds, you've got to make up your mind. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:36:50 What are you going to do? Yeah, okay. Gone. Yeah. Hey, I'm glad Murray wouldn't drive. Flying. Oh, he'd have put her down. He could have done it.
Starting point is 00:37:00 He'd have sat her on down in the middle of the cotton. He'd a dead stuck it. Yeah. What are you doing, Murray? Well, we got to do a dead stick with this one. Yeah. Murray said he'd get 10,000 feet shut her down. Just coast.
Starting point is 00:37:12 And look, and then he'd be scared to death. No, no. I'm talking about this. I would too. I couldn't do it. I couldn't. You know, because, hey, no, you've got to be able to thank and think fast when you're doing stuff like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:28 What are you trying to say? I can't thank that face. I'm with you, Sa. I'm just telling the truth, okay? I couldn't have it. No, I can't either. I can't either. I'm out on that.
Starting point is 00:37:37 But let's take our last break. We'll be back and we'll get in that inbox. All right, we're back. And Murray, this is a part of our show. I don't know how much you've watched it, but this is where we get into our fan email. They email us at hello at duck callroom. com asking us questions.
Starting point is 00:37:55 There's all kinds of things. And I read this one from our fan, Jeremy. and I thought it was funny and I think it's worth question. Well, hit us with your best shot. He said, I need y'all's help settling a debate between my wife and I. When you put socks and shoes on, is it socks, sock, shoe, or sock shoe, or sock shoe, or sock shoe. I can't wait. I say it's all socks, then shoes.
Starting point is 00:38:22 She doesn't. I think I might have to move out. What's everyone's way of doing it? So, Sire, you wake up and put your shoes on. Do you put both your socks on and then your shoes, or do you put a sock on than a shoe? Are they already on? I think I'd know.
Starting point is 00:38:35 I do it both ways. I do. Sometimes I put a sock on, flip the boot on, put another sock on, and then sometimes I'd say, okay, let me put on my socks. And then I get up and go do something, give me some tea or something,
Starting point is 00:38:49 and then I'm in the time of it. So you're being Switzerland. You're not making a choice. Murray? Yeah. Hey, I'm a sock, sock, shoe shoe guy. Philip? Right.
Starting point is 00:38:59 I skip the socks and just put on shoe shoe. I'd ask Godwin, but he'd go barefoot everywhere he goes. I too am put both socks on, then put my shoes on. That's why I do it, most of the time. Most of the time. Most of the time is sock, socks, shoe, shoe. So Jeremy from Southeast Missouri, tell your wife she's wrong. Yeah, but hey, don't move out on her.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Don't move out on her. I'm just thinking if you're, well, but if you're a female, you ain't putting socks on for you, put like heels or nothing on because you ain't wearing no socks. You just sliding on in there. But I would feel unlevel or something. I mean, how's she putting her stuff on, standing up and putting, I don't understand how you, because I sit on the end of the bed, do mine, I'm lazy. I ain't trying to do no balancing act.
Starting point is 00:39:42 I sit down there on the end of the bed and put my stuff on. You have to get hurt. You're going to stand up and put a sock on. I mean, that's like, how do you put your breeches on? You just jump in them or you go one leg at a time? One leg at a time. That's what I'm talking about. Unless you do like in the military, there starts.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Then they stand up our own and you could just jump in them. I ain't ever been able to jump that high Well, hey, if you get on a bed post, you can. Hey. Oh, my goodness. Hey, look, you got to have Starz uniform, baby. Man, a lot. It's rough on the hair on your legs, though.
Starting point is 00:40:15 It'll rub it at all along. If you're obsessive-compulsive, then you have to do, it's got to be equal on both sides. You know what I mean? If you burn your hand on the left one, you've got to burn your right one. You know, if you put on your left sock, you've got to put on your right sock. You can't help it. It just feels like if you put a shoe on before you put your other sock on, you're going to be so unlevel, you're going to tip that way.
Starting point is 00:40:35 I don't know how you do it. You're going to fall down. And if I'm wearing flip-flops, I just step into them. What happens if an emergency happens, and you got one shoe and one sock on and you got never make it? And somebody's banging on the door. You'll never make it. Uh-uh.
Starting point is 00:40:51 You're running to the wall. You're going to the left. Your teeter totter. What happened? Only got one shoe on and one sock. I said, you'll never make it. All right. Well, there you go. We're sock, sock, sock, shoe, people. So there you go. All right, we have another one from our fan, Mac.
Starting point is 00:41:08 Hey, Mike from Indianapolis here. Going on my first duck hunt this winter down in Louisiana in celebration of getting out of the army with my dad and grandpa who go every year. I need some advice for my first time. Love the show and thanks Cy and Stone for their service. Well, Mac, thank you for your service if you're getting out of this. year my man that's awesome and if you're in north Louisiana swing by the office if somebody's here we'll stop shake your hand appreciate that but first duck hunt he's traveling I was I'm glad you said you're traveling because if your first duck hunt was going to be in Indianapolis I was going to tell you go somewhere else so that was going to be
Starting point is 00:41:46 my first piece of advice I was thinking Kansas yeah yeah yeah but Louisiana may not be all it's cracked up to be either but first duck hunt side what what's he what's he needs well I'll give him this advice make sure you got about three box of the shells. I'm kind of like Johnny Wink's. I like to shoot a bunch of powder, burn a bunch of powder. Well, you can't kill but six. Well, I know, but it's still like to burn powder.
Starting point is 00:42:09 If I don't. That's 75 shots at it. Yeah. Oh, hey. Well, Murray, you got any advice for a first time duck hunter? You've been doing it a long time. Yeah, I would find an outfitter, you know, down on the coast or there's some good ones up here. It depends on the time of the year a lot, you know, where the ducks are early and late.
Starting point is 00:42:28 It depends on that a lot to me, but I'd probably say go to the marsh down in South Louisiana and get a reptable guy down there and you'll kill some ducks. Yeah, that's kind of my deal, too. It doesn't say whether they're going with a guy or if they're freelancing or whatever. But if it is your first one, I highly recommend using an outfit or you'll have a much, much more positive experience, Mac, because they take a lot of the guesswork out of it for you, man. They put you in a good spot. They got the decoys.
Starting point is 00:42:56 You don't have to spend a bunch of money on equipment. like the price of the outfitter is still cheaper than you going to get outfitted to go duck hunting for the first time. No, duck hunting is expensive. Yeah, but most of all enjoy it, man. Take you some hearing protection, take you some shells, take you a good gun, and just go enjoy it. Hopefully, whoever you whiz got a good dog, they always make a good hunt. And I would also add, don't shoot until somebody says, cut them. Why would you say that, Phil?
Starting point is 00:43:24 Who's ever in charge? All I'm going to say is... He got blacklisted one time in Banned for life. And I said, Sire, we're best friends. Can't you get me back into the Fields Blind? He was like, ha. No, you're on your own, son.
Starting point is 00:43:37 Oh, my goodness gracious. There you go. Let's see. Well, that's the best part. Martin gave you the best advice. When you're out there, enjoy God's creation. Have fun. Enjoy it.
Starting point is 00:43:50 Take it for what it is. Listen to those around you. And, man, you're going to, I hope you have a great time. And I hope you pick up duck hunting for the rest of your life because it is a lot of fun. I've made some good friends. Some of my best friends have been made on duck hunts. And it's always just a good time. But we got time for one more.
Starting point is 00:44:08 Oh, man, I don't know that I want to get into that one today. Oh, that sounds like an interesting one to me. Let's get into it. Is this about house remodeling? No, no, no, but it might as well be. Head eight. Um, no, this, our, our, our fan, Al is, um, he's just got out of the Marine Corps. And he's just wanting some advice on, um, transitioning out of the military into civilian life,
Starting point is 00:44:35 Sae. First thing, first. Thank you for your service. Thank you for your service. Okay. And then, hey, next thing is, it's, it's a, uh, going from being in the military because it's got its own little family, okay? the whole military, all of them are a family unit. Okay, so it's a big adjustment, okay,
Starting point is 00:44:57 because you're going to miss all the guys and gals that you serve with, number one, first and foremost. And he's married with a four-year-old son, so I'm sure a lot of that he's missed. So it's probably a, you know, a culture shock almost, going from full military time to coming home with a wife and a kid there all the time. Well, you're transitioned to end. but it's not a superb transition out.
Starting point is 00:45:23 When you're in, you're responsible for a lot of things. You're trusted with a lot of things, and people are checking on you and counting on you. And when you're out, it's just not a smooth transition out where you're used to coming back. And so, you know, it's a hard, I guess it's a hard atmosphere or climate to move back into, I guess. Because they train you to go inside, but it's not necessarily.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Well, no, no, I would say this. when you get out, okay, find you some people that have been in the military in your area and your community. If not, then find you a church that you can, you know, and get connected there. Okay, because from going from one thing like you said, you know, you're important, okay, and then when you get out, well, it's just, you know, it seems like, you know, you've been disregarded. discarded, you know, or discarded, I guess, is a word I'm looking for. Okay.
Starting point is 00:46:23 So you've got to adapt on that. And I would say, like I said, find some buddy army buddies in the community. Get with them because then you've got something that, you know, that all of you can talk about. Gotcha. To help you out. That's good. Philip, you requested the Bible verse for the ending. You want to send us on out of here?
Starting point is 00:46:44 I do want to. This is from Philippians 4. and you know I don't know how everything happens but it is nice that you can cast your anxieties on our father in heaven and Jesus is mediating for us and we're guaranteed resurrection with the spirit that lives in us so I can't explain how everything works but but I do know this rejoice in the Lord and you can put your name in this verse rejoice in the Lord always I'll say it again rejoice let your gentleness be evident to all the Lord is near do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with thanksgiving present your request to
Starting point is 00:47:24 god and the peace of god and this is what i want these guys to know which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in christ jesus that's a good one amen to that peace of mind is a very rare rare commodity in right about that in this world we live in today yeah and no matter the struggles you are going through you most of the time you still have much more to be thankful for. And I love that it says that it hits on there. Approach it with a spirit of thankfulness and gratitude. Not only for everything you've been given,
Starting point is 00:47:58 but that we have a savior that wants us to talk to him. That's something to be thankful for right there. That we have a direct line. And like Sy said, we do surround ourselves with people that are like-minded. That's why we can come together and we can help each other. And it's like a family. and I've heard Murray say it. And when Murray, I watched a video on Murray on YouTube or something,
Starting point is 00:48:20 and he told his wife Sheila, and they've been married 51 years, and we're so proud of them. Congratulations. Take those flowers with you, like Si said, from Flower General. But he said, Sheila, are you okay with being number two? Because Jesus is always going to be number one, and she grabbed his hand, and she said, of course I am, you know. As long as you are.
Starting point is 00:48:40 I like that. As long as you are. What would I leave out? You left out one important thing. She said as long as Jesus is number one. Well, Murray, thank you so much for coming on today. Look, guys, y'all stick around. We're going to give you some more clips from Murray and Sy's news show.
Starting point is 00:49:01 Y'all go check it out. We appreciate y'all and we'll see y'all next time right here in the duck call room. We're out. All right. We go. Hey, y'all will help to help me out today. I think my battery is dead. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:15 I couldn't get my motor crank this morning. Really? Yeah, I didn't want to get out of bed. You know what was wrong. I ain't got no gas in it. Ain't got no gas. That's why I'm right. Well, you're getting old, time?
Starting point is 00:49:29 I'm getting old. I have a daughter in college, and I got another one for this and again. Yeah, where are they going to college? In Avalene. Abilene? I have one there going to college. Merritt has decided to go to Abilene. Oh, they're going together.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Yeah. That's a good sign that you did something right. if two sisters that are real close in age want to be together. Now you've got to go out and let them spread their wings and fly. No, actually, we're doing the exact opposite. I got a house there. On the urging of my wife. Sounds like there's a little trouble just saying, go.
Starting point is 00:50:07 She's not a hover mom. She's a smother mom. But we're going there. So Jessica's going, and I think your wife is going. My wife's going to help fix up our place in Abilene. Just get all the stuff ready for the girls. Missy helped Cole, like prep and stuff and doing a lot of college, get ready for college. We had a huge arguing about this because I'm like, you kick them out of the nest.
Starting point is 00:50:36 And you don't go with them. That's not what girls do. They go feather the nest for their children. I think she used that exact phrase. Actually, it's a good place, I think, to possibly treasure hunt. Last time I was there, I looked up, like, what's old in Abilene? Like, 10 miles outside of town is a place called Camp Barclay. It's its old World War II training site just right outside of Abilene.
Starting point is 00:51:01 What they was doing there was running troops through training, and then you put them on boats and shipping them over to Europe. So, look, I talked to the owners, and they said there could be, like, crates of, like, M1 Grands, Like those old rifles from the 40s, just in the ground. More tanks. I'd like that on them. Who owns the land? The Portman's very nice family.
Starting point is 00:51:25 They own the entire training. They have like a thousand acres. And they don't care if we hunt. No, they're awesome. What do they use the property for now? They do a lot of disaster relief stuff. They have like corporate and church events out there. I got an idea.
Starting point is 00:51:41 When Missy tells me that she's going, I'll just volunteer to go with her. And I'll say, I mean, this is a tough transition for these kids, and they need all the help they can get to make that transition smooth. I can't wait to see that facial expression. Okay. Do you have a honeymoon suite at your house that I could borrow? No.
Starting point is 00:52:07 You can stay, but no honeymoon allowed. What are you talking about? I'll close the door. No. It don't work like that. Yeah, that's what married people do. Yep. Not at my house.
Starting point is 00:52:17 Yep. We close the doors. Let's turn into a family road trip. The girls are going to love it.
