Because the thing about our fans are, they still have DVD players. Do what? Oh, yeah. Do they still have them? They still love them. Oh. I do. Well, that's on the Xbox, but I use it religiously.

Well, you got a microphone now. You can talk to us, Hunter. Oh, we're going? Yeah. I thought we were. I was talking about DVDs, man. First of all, welcome back to the Duck Call Room. If you're wondering why we're talking about DVDs,

it's because you see our new decorations. The Blind is now out on DVD. And we made an option for you if you don't. want to stream it. We got you. We got you. You want to sit down and have a whole family movie night if you missed your chance at the theaters or if you loved it so much you want to watch it again. Here we go.

But do you think they have it at the DVD store in town? You open me to open that

is there still a DVD store in town not called Walmart? No, no, no. You can go rent movies in West Monroe. Yeah, national video. Are you the person keeping them over? No, I haven't been in years. No, but I have thought about it for fun. I went to the Mexican establishment beside there, and I was like, man, they're still written videos. It's because they have, like, obscure horror movies that you can just rent.

Hunter, you've got some real big bang theory tendencies over there. I don't want to talk about it. Yeah, you've got some real Sheldon Cooper. What's the old boys named, Leonard Hofsteader? Not much penny coming out of you. Anyway, it's out now. Yeah, it's out. Look at it.

There it is. I don't have anything I can put it into. Hey, remember that Duck Dynasty episode where we threw them and shot them like skeet? We probably shouldn't do that with these. These are still new. We had way too many of those when we were doing that. They do make good targets. Yeah, there you go.

So look, if you're looking for the perfect Christmas gift, there you go. There you go. The blind. The blind. Now on DVD. Where do you get it, Beth? Anywhere DVDs are sold? Anywhere DVDs are sold?

If you come by Duck Commander, trust me, you'll be able to get it in our store. 117 Kingsland, come buy you one. Absolutely. I don't know if we're putting it online or not. Yeah, and Walmart. And Walmart. Walmart. Wally, where, I mean.

Or go to 117 Kings Lane. Hey, we should see if we can get it put next to the Christmas tree cakes. Just saying. That would sell a bunch of them. That display out in the middle of it. I'm just saying, a little Debbie. She knows our fan base. But anyway, so there we go.

The blind's out now. Make sure you check it out. Stone? You know, we sat down and got to talk with Si, and I was really appalled by a revelation he made that he sat down. I'm asking you, because I know you're a witness, that he sat down, broke bread, and cut up with a game warden. Is that true? That is a true statement. And then he invited her to come hunting here.

I was fixing to say. It was extenuating circumstance. Okay. This game warden happened to be a very attractive young woman. Okay. Which I didn't even know that existed. Not attracted to women, but. See, you learn something.

That are game women. That are game. Right. You learn something. Yeah. It's a unicorn. Yeah. Yeah.

So, Si had the opportunity to go shoot a big Axis buck that evening. But he, passed on that opportunity because he knew said game warden was going to come to camp and he wanted to make sure that he was there when that happened okay of course i did i didn't seen the picture of her you i didn't want to disappoint that's fine little thing i tell you what to his uh credit she was finer and frog hair okay we've confirmed yeah there's an article about on their internet. Yeah, she was the cover photo on an article about new game wardens.

Oh, really? The Texas Department of Wildlife marketing department knew what they were doing. So, Sai was doing- They agreed with Sa. Oh, yeah. Sye was doing his deal. You know how he did. Oh, yeah. And he said, oh, he said, don't worry about me. He said, I'm harmless as a hillhound. And she looked at him and said, that makes one of us. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I told her, if she asked him, when we sit out, he cooked a big tunnel, Lord. Yeah. Yeah, I was at one at a table, and she sat down at a dozen, she said,

what are you doing leaving me all by myself down here? I said, baby, it's, trust me, it's for your benefit. Like you do anything. That's my favorite part. I still don't know how your eyes ain't brown. I really don't. Oh, he was in rare form. How in the world you got blue eyes, I'll never understand.

Because your meter on the inside is peg, buddy. They should be dark chocolate brown. Oh, boy. Yeah, indeed. Now, see, y'all just hadn't hung around me or no. Yeah, I have. Hey, I've always been a player, son, when it comes to a woman. A player.

Wow. Well, a man, been married 57 years, Neil. I am a player. I'm right there tells you that. Did she know she was in the game? Oh, yeah. I just wanted, because, you know, most times if you're a player, it takes two to be in the game. If they don't even know they're in the game, then...

She didn't know a game was going on. Yeah. No, she just looked at him as an old man. She looked at him like going to the assisted living place and doing career day, you know. I mean, she left their time, boy, I made this old man's night. Y'all ain't going to believe this. She thought you'd go ahead to sing songs and ask if they can have sugar-free or regular candy. She did make this old man's life.

I enjoyed it 30. I'll tell you one thing. She stuck her hand out for me to shake her hand. And when I grabbed her hand, I was not expecting a vice grip. Yeah. I'm talking about this. look, this woman would be like six foot tall. Well, we looked at her whole deal.

Oh, no. Yesterday and saw that she grew up in San Diego. We know about her. Yeah, became a sheriff in Arizona and ended up a Texas game ward. Mm-hmm. That was her goal. That don't happen because you ain't tough. Well, no, no.

Like, that was her golden life. I'll tell you right now, that woman tough. No, she's tough. No. She's a tough. That's first thing Stone said when he met her, they shook hand. Mm-hmm. He said, good, Greece, woman.

you got a strong hand shake you got there darling yeah well magic i mean she going out there messing with poachers and everything you can't go to half cock oh yeah she trains a little jihitsu too does she so she knows what she's doing there you go look hey my hat's off to her i just wanted to i heard his version of how it went down i just needed to confirm with an actual high witness how it went we got a lot of versions i'll tell you one thing i was sitting in a deer stand 800 yards away and i could hear him cackling talking all that trash sitting on the back portion

that camp 800 yards I look deer standing in the middle of the lane throwing her head up looking you know I said well that game ward must have shoved up

well see I was trying to help you all out they paid attention to breathe y'all got to couldn't shoot one yeah when he does get in that cackling storytelling boy there ain't no getting him quiet either oh my goodness he had them dogs

howling yeah oh Stop laughing right now. He's going back and thinking about it. Bingo, that was the best photograph we had was me and the dog. Oh, the two old dogs and the deer? Yeah, because I was two old dogs and the deer.

It was old bingo. Yeah, y'all's both a little gray around the snoot. Oh, yeah. You know? Walking a little slow. Yep, I ain't no doubt. I'll send that over to Johnny. That's good to know.

I'm glad to know that he told the truth on that one. We weren't sure yesterday. Yeah, I just couldn't believe it. I was stunned that he invited her to come hunting. Hey, let me look at that buck again. Uh-oh. I didn't look at that buck gutter enough. We showed him a picture yesterday of him and his deer.

He said, that ain't the one I killed. They're a sign old bingo. That's two old dogs right there. I need to start looking at these deer more closely. That's not size deer background. That's bullfrogs. Yeah, no, but we showed the one with him out there with a rifle in the cactus. Like, they had just found him.

I didn't know his antlers were that high. two old dogs trying to learn new shit we showed this one all right mango's got a good look to it we showed that one and he said that ain't the one I killed

is that his deer style? Yeah I see it I just sent you one to put that one up there see if he can reckon that that is his deer

yeah obviously oh yeah we looked at that one there you go see I didn't know his tines all of his

I don't know that tall look that thinks why a scy it's in the middle of it yeah that's wild so the old

Mr. Eddie right there on the left and his son, Justin, who I've become pretty good friends with, salt of the earth people, by the way. So we come riding up after Si shoots the deer, and the owner of the ranch walks up to the deer, and Cy comes out, he said, well, Mr. Sy, what are you thinking about him? Si, I looked at him.

He said, he shrunk. He did. He looked twice that big on when I shot him. Before I shot him, he looked twice that big. I said, Sy, let's try that again. I said try because the camera's rolling you know I said try saying boy that's a pretty Texas buck right there I didn't look at him close enough I'm serious because I didn't know all the

mountainous was that high that's a beautiful deer yeah yeah I can't wait to get him back now I didn't look at him good it's gonna be like killing him all over again yeah I'm telling you because hey all I remember I thought it was all a little short short yeah I don't know if he's gonna fit over here behind you Oh, I may hang him in the house. Oh. Oh, okay. I may hang him in the house.

We'll get a Santa Claus hat for him. Oh, yeah. Oh, he's a pretty. That's a big old deer, though. Oh, yeah. Oh, big old. I mean, big deer. Well, it was dark when he's small compared to old BK's deer, though.

There's a little bull's dog. Oh, that pretty deer there. She got her a hammer. All right. 170 is what that deer scores. Yeah. That BK shot. What did your score?

I don't know. Not 170. No, well, they said 175 maybe. maybe. Maybe. I'm going to say 65. You know, when B.K. I shot her deer, it dropped in his tracks.

Uh-oh. Well, I know. Uh-oh. I still don't believe that deer runoff that I shot. But he did. But I was about saying. Did you see somebody come drag him on? No, no, because he was, hey, he should have just failed because it was a good shot.

Oh, he did make a good shot. But I didn't, the left leg was forward, and I shot a high shot, so it didn't go through the own, you know, it went through his heart and then busted out the other side on the high shoulder. Yeah, he had a doubt. Oh, it didn't drop him. Now I learned something, though. You've got to have both of them the same place. Then they go through both of them, then he'll drop.

Well, yeah. You go from four-wheel drive to two-wheel drive. Oh, yeah. That's when you start that snow plowing, is what I call it. That's right. They're trying to run, but that front end ain't working. They just go ahead and lay down and take their last breath. Call that good.

unbelievable. We had ourselves a large time. Hold on, it's always a big time. Hey, can I go with you one of these times? I just want to watch. I don't care. I just want to watch you from afar. I want to sit on that porch so you can hear me cackling.

That's a good picture there. But anyway. Let's look at that look on his face. Oh, yeah. He looked like that one, that picture of him with that Christmas house. Look at there. He put all his teeth in, too. I just showed the bottom of them

Oh, shoot. 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 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 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 to them. But with Tritails 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 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 isn't a big meat, folks.

Yeah. Just go to Tribalienable. Beef.com slash. That's trybeef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. What did you eat while you're down there? Well, Stone cooks us a big tenderloin

and it was fine. That's a frog hair. You know, then Eddie cooked us a bunch of, what, foritas? Forhetas. A little skirt steak fajitas. Oh, smash. Texas style. It was excellent.

Why is Mexican food? So good. And then we had, it's not really Mexican food. Then we had quail. Texican food. Tomil tamales. Quail tamales?

Yeah. That sounds fantastic. They were incredible. And they was. It was good. Yeah, that sounds fantastic. And we had some quail and pork sausage. Okay.

I wouldn't ever grind up a quail. That's fine. Oh, it was good. They ground up. There's a bunch of quail down there. A lot of dubs. Yeah, a lot of dubs. I mean a lot of dubs.

Yeah. That's where all the doves go. Go to love it. Go to Lubbock. Mm-hmm. go anywhere out there yeah Texas is full of ducks

that's for you once you get west to Fort Worth just load you shotgun yep they there that's that's that's true

so but anyway we're crowding duck season what are you looking forward to there

old man what numbers is for you you're 75 yeah so this is duck season number

70 for you man like probably probably 75 well you didn't know when you was a new one

he came out the womb. Oh, hey, I'll come out of the womb carrying a shotgun. Oh, here we go. Doctor actually got shot when he put me on the butt to make me cry. Lord, now he's going to tell that story so many times he believes it. Watch him. It is how it went down. No, I'm actually looking forward to it. Are you? Yeah. Another trip. Well, you just hit me up for some tournigay shells, so I know you're going to have some fun. What is going to do? Is there water?

There's a lot of speckle bellies in the area. There are that. So Stone has a man that has Have some property that has them on it Oh, okay And a lot of them Yeah Okay, that's all we saw Speckabellus

You're gonna go smash some speck Oh yeah Yeah, we'll figure you're over there Wacking Stap. You can only kill three now I know So you ain't no reason to take four boxes of shell I may go five days in a row though

That way I'd kill 15 And there might be eight people in the blind Yeah, it may be a bunch of people in the blind Oh man I love it Yolly. I love it. I'm looking forward to eating them. This specklebell is good now. Oh, no. Yeah.

That's the only one of them that is edible. The only one of what? Geese. Oh, yeah. Well, you can make jerky and sausage out of them. Yeah, the rest of them cut them up. Spegglebell is good. That specklebell is good, though.

He's a rice eater. Mm-hmm. So he's good. Mm. So that's what you got. When are you going? Oh, no. Oh.

Oh. He never really last been dog. Is there ducts here? There's a lot of ducks here right now. But there's not a lot of water. Not a lot of water. And it's also not season, so they're safe. And still, yeah, what, 18th?

Yeah, youth hunt Saturday. I guess that's probably a veteran hunt Sunday, then. So you could duck hunt Sunday. I bet. Are you going? No. We're going to go. We're going to wait until the season's over before we do the veterans home.

Yeah. Jason won us run it off all his ducks. Oh, wow. Both of them. No, I mean, because they got water, so they probably got a few foul. Oh, we got a pile of them in there. Yeah.

Oh, is there? Oh, yeah. We can have ourselves a large time. Right now. Right now. So they... You get about three days worth of it. So they are gathered up down there.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Well, they're gathered up anywhere's water. It ain't right here since June. Everything's low. All the sloughs are dry. Amen. Slews, pond.

Yep. Yeah. Lakes. Everything. All of my food plots are brown. Yeah. All of my food plots are brown. Yeah.

All ours still just look like dirt. Yeah, no water. I mean, they never even sprouted. No water. We got them in before that last rain, and they just didn't. They still wasn't enough to even make a seed to pran. No. Stones planted them, what, twice?

Twice. Yeah. I've drilled them twice. Yeah, it's tough, it's tough go out being in a drought. But droughts generally lead to good duck hunting. Yeah. If you have a pump. Really?

Yeah. If you have a pump. Yeah, if you got water. I don't have a pump. Yeah. I always have like an acre. Yes. You got a pond.

I just live in a neighborhood You got a pond But you feed your duck's wonder bread No, that lady In our neighborhood will get on you If you feed the duck's bread Oh really? No, you've been the same lady

With the, got the jets Squirting out in the pond there Uh-huh Well, she's really worried about them ducks I doubt she listens But yeah, she is That's all I'll say She take care of them

I like her kids She takes care of some ducks She's like her kids It's nice to have ducks in the neighborhood bond, though, so I'm like, go for it. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Well, it gives you a chance to teach your kids something about nature and all that kind of good stuff. Every once in a problem is they crap all over everything. Oh, yeah.

That's why nobody gets mad at us for killing ducks because they're only experienced with them, but they go crap on everything. You won't get people big mad to shoot a deer or a bear or something that they're used to thinking cute and cuddly. That's when people get big mad. Who thinks bears are cute and cuddly? Everybody that ever owned a teddy bear? I've actually eat or tasted the bear

It's too stout for me Is it? Yeah Yeah, I've never had it We haul hay when I was You know, teenager Up to Arkansas And he's a big wild game hunter

All over Africa, everywhere He'd killed everything And he had bear, Caribou Had all this stuff Caribou's good Mm-hmm I could say that moss

Eater's all they eat moss Yeah, they're good Yeah But the bear What about raccoon? You ever ate him? I've tried them. They ain't much.

They ain't much. Yeah, it's tough. Are they like a bear? Well, I mean, would you say that they're similar on the meat and everything? Yeah, they're tough and the meat's stringy. Mm-hmm. Yeah, yeah, it's chewy. I just wondering, because our cleaning lady, Miss Margaret, said every year she does a coon roast for her preacher.

I've heard a lot of people say they can cook them. They're really good, but now. Barbecue coon, coon roast for her preachers, because she only does it once a year. and I asked her, I said, well, will you make it for me? And she said, as long as you clean him, I was like, yeah, no, that's where you lost me. You don't clean raccoons? I mean, I would just think it would be very similar to cleaning the squirrel. They make cool hats.

And cleaning the squirrel is tough to do it without getting hair all over. Oh, yeah. Like, so I imagine that raccoon hair about the same way. Get everywhere. Yeah. I'm sure you'd clean him the same, cut through his tail and then down the side and, you know. But all that thing, but... I don't know about eating raccoon,

but that possum, the more you chew on it, the bigger it gets. Possom? No, no. Really? The same thing with raccoon. Oh. You finally just, you know, spread it out.

Yeah. You can't get it broke down. Yeah. It just, you know, you're just like chewing the backer. Mm. Yeah. It don't go away. No, chewing the back is good.

Well, I mean, it don't go away, though. You still got, you know, if you put a big wide in your mouth to chew it, spent and all that. When you get through, you spit it out. Oh, wow. That's where a Coon is. Really? Yeah, he's tough.

Tough. Something tells him we're going to get them folks in the comments. Say, I know how to cook Raccoon. Please do not send that. I had an Uber driver tell me all about how to cook possum. Possom? He was from West Virginia. Nope.

No, my mom and dad. Possom? Yeah. Really? Yep, well, sweet potatoes. Cook it up and said it was good. In fact, I think I videoed that man talking about. Possumhead cheese.

Oh, wow. He's at the stage with you. There's your certain things I won't eat. And a possum is one of them. Yeah, me too. Oh, his lifestyle, no. He's got terrible lifestyle. Yeah, his lifestyle, he, no, he's off the menu.

I never forget that when I saw on Beth River. Oh, no. Come crawling out the inside of that bloated up cow. Oh, no, that's never again. That's what I'm talking about. His lifestyle is wild. Nope. Mm-hmm.

Weird meats, folks, drop us a comment, send us the email What's the weirdest game? And some of y'all are going to say that Coon and Possum ain't weird But it is weird There's no way That's weird What about an armadillo recipe? Anybody ever ate them?

Go on to half shell. Really? Well, they're dangerous. Dangerous. Yeah, to eat because they have a lot of diseases. Well, they carry leprosy. I know that. They're one of the carriers for leprosies.

Yeah, they have a lot of diseases involved with them. This is my Uber driver. He told me all about possum and how to eat it. We were in Mobile, Alabama. He's from West Virginia. No. No. And that's all you have is a live photo?

Possin cheese like hoghead cheese? It's a hoghead cheese. It's a hoghead cheese. kind of thing, yeah. Made out a possum. Made out of possum, yeah. It's gross. It's sticks, man. I mean, it's there. Once you take a bite. That was a two-hour driving. That's what we talked about. One o'clock in the morning in Mobile, Alabama. He said it sticks, man. Once you take a bite, and that's it. That dude was awesome. No, boy. Do we need to take a break? I don't know what we're Might as well roll on three.

Yeah, just keep rolling. Hunter, find a break in there. Oh, yeah. Hossom head cheese. What about them, don't they eat those mountain lions? They say they're good. They say mountain lions fantastic.

Oh, no, that's another thing I would eat. Yeah. No. Yeah, as a general rule, other than fish, if they eat meat also, I stay away from it. This is a general rule.

rule. Yeah. This is a general, now fish have to eat other fish to survive for the most part. But fish tastes like fish. But fish tastes like fish, and it's all kind of a cool thing. But that's why I don't really care for alligators.

I know other people say like it's good. I just don't know. It's a little chewy and fishy. Yeah. It's just not, it's not everything is cracked up to me. Beth, what y'all eat up there in Canada?

Y'all, y'all had like muskrat and. Seal blubber. Oh, wow. You went all Eskimo. bonus. Okay. She claims she's joking, but I don't think she is. Seal blubber. Yeah, I'm out. What part of Canada are you from?

The most northern part? Yeah, that's a joke. She says that's a joke. Yeah, I see, I just would rather stick to like, you know, Christmas tree cakes and Dodge pretzels and peanut M&M. Cows. Cows. Slim chickens. Chimbs.

I mean, let's not go to it. Is I ducks? Well, no, that's like shark. They say shark is good. I've had Mako Shark, it wouldn't bad. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I wouldn't. That's just now.

Out of my list of things I've eaten that come out of the ocean, he wasn't like top five, but he was edible. Spoon bill cat. I ain't had him. He smells too bad living to be good dead. Anything that is alive and strength is bad at his spoonbill catfish, I wouldn't eat. You want to talk about another thing that's thick at spoonbill slime. It sticks. Oh, no.

Like on your boat carpet. Oh, it's rough. Your hands and everything else. I just, I ain't, I ain't, I ain't ever been mad at him. That's a wild fish too. He's cool now. Well, just his look. Yeah, he got a, he got a snows on it.

And if they get big. Big, big. You know, big, I mean big. Yeah. Oh, yeah, they get gigantic. And there's places you can go snag them and keep on a day. Yeah, gone a lot. You know, rod and real, it'd be a blast of catch one.

But then it's just nasty. Hey, look, I know a couple of sandbars on Wastataw River. Hold on. If you got a treble hook, you can go snag all you want. Oh, no. Yeah. Yeah. I've grapped enough of that river to know there's like three sandbars on it

that are loaded this time of year with spoonbills. That's like all the way up to the top. They're all the way. It's crazy. That's wild looking. I always remember growing up on Red River on top of, for the bill, put telephone poles in to keep the bank from caving in. Mm-hmm.

sit up on riffraps and watch them all come up gar spoonbills catfish what is the weirdest thing you've ate uh have you ate anything like super bizarre no we ate that ostrich miller killed he's pretty good that's a whole story by itself well we've already told it on him oh no he had to kill him in self-defense yeah that's the one that run me back in the truck we ate him at night after we killed him he was good Ice was just good. Yeah, he was legitimately good. He was like... Well, he's just a big chicken.

Yeah. No, he's like a rump roast. No, it's dark meat. Oh, dark meat? Yeah. I thought it'd be like a chicken. Uh-uh. Do you get them thighs?

Oh, yeah. I know one thing. Yeah, we ate him all. That big sucker can run. We smashed him. Hey, he's scary you too. Oh, no, yeah. We didn't do them wangs.

Them wangs seemed a little intimidating. But yeah, we cleaned him and ate him. I mean, he was fine. I figured, I looked at the old boy, I said, well, He's dead. Might as well eat him, right?

And he's like, yeah, I guess so. So he showed us how to clean him. Yeah, I'd like that farmer that killed

his prives breeding bull. Punched him 29. Punched him in just right there on the forehead and killed him

dead as a hammer. Right there, gone. And hey, and his wife said, what are we gonna do now? He said,

call the neighbors, we fixed the barbecue. I'm pretty sure all them kids that live behind the honeyhole been eating Spoonbill and Gar.

Have it? Yeah. Bring them on. Well, because I call him the Gar Commanders and they've done taking that to the Instagram and they think they're going to make a thing of it. But look at them.

And they're eating all these things. They're just out there just living by the river catching. That was up to beach. They spending all their money. That's Gar Commanders Westman Row, by the way. Gar Commander. Gar Commander's W.M. Yellow Crocs. Yellow Crocs.

Oh, these kids are redneck as they get. Look at that. I love them. Wow. Oh, yeah. That's your customer. I ain't no doubt about it. Look at them.

They're pretty good fishermen. Oh, they catching them on jugs. Yeah. A little alligator going. Yeah, they're pretty good. Oh, they get and they eat it. And they tell me it tastes good, and I refuse to believe it. But then they get their dad, one of their dads comes in and backs them up.

But I don't know about eating gar balls. I wonder how popular the hash-ed that gar fishing in. I think so you got to like a strong fishy taste. No. Eat them. They like crab cakes. There you go. Gar-balls.

What is that? What is that? Time out. Go back. Go back. Wherever that was. Where was? Keep going. What is that broad fish in the middle? That looks like, is that a Gasper Goo?

No. What is that? What is that? I don't know. That's a Shad. No, go. That's a big shad. Them boys are cold none, Jack.

If they catch it and they can use it to catch something else, that's their goal. There's a white crappie, there's a black crappie. There's a bunch of. a blue gill. That big one is a, is a, oh. Why have, why have you not stomped in here with Gar Commander West Monroe? Well, there's about 12 of them. That's fine.

Hey, great a couple of them. There's Craven and there's probably, there's Carter, or CJ. That are really cool, like, that can get on here and talk for a minute. Bring those two. Yeah. We don't need all 12 of them, but. Well, they got school. Well, that's fine.

They're out at some point. Thanksgiving breaks coming. Thanksgiving breaks coming. We'll bring the Gar commander. Yeah, get them up here. Noah's technically the guard commander. He's the maddest at him. That's him.

That's Noah, the one with a funny hair. He ain't calling nothing. He ain't calling nothing. He goes every day. Oh, he's a darb on spill wall. Oh, yeah, I think so safe. Yeah, I know that. Uh-huh.

But they live close enough to river. They were swimming trot lines out. They send in your kids to OCS, ain't they? Mm-hmm. I love them, my. Tell me more about your swimming trot lines. They don't have a boat. Oh, so they swim out there to set them?

And they go by goldfish and go set them and... That's you. That's you in Phil. Me and Phil did that old Red River. We'd wait out there, chest up waist deep with a woollah, two willis, hanged up. We're looking at Cy Roberts in the next generation. That's what they are.

And every once in a while they come in smelling like I can only assume Phil and Sy smell back there. These kids are real kids. Oh, they are. They're doing it. No, no, no, they're doing it. Okay? They really are. His mom came in this morning. He said, yeah, he sent me back to get the expensive stuff.

The parents always show up. But they'll show up and buy just snacks and live bagels. And these are the lemonade sellers too? Oh, yeah. They ran a lemonade stand. Man, good for that. Yeah, we need them. Yeah.

We need them. I'm officially requesting a couple of them as guests. They're welcome to come on this podcast. Yeah, because I need to know more about them. I need to get, yeah, I need to know more. Oh, we might run them here too. good of time and then we'll pick the two we really like. I'm back.

Have an interview process? Yeah. Hey, this is going to be fun. Uh, I love the... Hey, these boys are the real deal. Wait, time out. While we're here. Yeah.

Guard commanders. I'm going to follow them. Flathead. I'm... They're about to get a follow from Jay Martin. Oh, that's it. There you go, Mark. Big up.

Got him a flat head. Yeah, they've got them a big flathead there. He looks like he's stunned. He was probably. that day. Gar commanders W.M. Follow. Oh, these are my boys. Look, he even supporting. Boy, they catching Gar out of

a boat. What's he got on a hunting vest? Has a backpack of some sort. Oh, man, these guys. Me and a buddy, okay, 22 may be illegal. I don't know. We shoot Gar. Mm-hmm. I ain't illegal. Well, look, we climbed trees

on this big pond. Okay, and I told him it. With a gun? Yeah, well, 22 rifle. This ain't going to win. Well, no, no, look. He goes up there and he's been shooting them, and he looked over there and he says,

oh, good grief. There's a big one right over there, but I can't see him. He says, so I'm going to ease out on that limb a little bit more. He had one. He was standing on and one under his arm. And I said, hey, them are cottonwoods. They're brittle. Don't get away from his trunk, you know.

I said, don't get away from the trunk. Well, he didn't listen. He kept going. Oh, no, he kept going. He said, oh, there he is. And Rob wouldn't even stick to shoot him. You hear, crack. The one on the bottom broke.

He hung for a minute on the one under his arm. And then it's a crack. And then it was like a ram. You mean. No, no. You're laughing thinking about this. Oh, what's not laughing. You mean.

Oh, no. I couldn't help it. Yeah, this is a. This is a. This is a. It's that hobbs side coming out in. Oh, no. Hey. 40 foot up in the top of the.

this tree. He fell? Oh, yeah. And, hey, he cleaned every limb going down because he would catch it. It would hold him for a second. He was laughing. And then he'd break it. Hardy foot.

Yeah. And he laughed. I couldn't help him. Look, the bad part, no, no, look, he fell in the water and the only thing he's saying is, where's my rifle? Where's my rifle? I said, hey, you idiot, forget the rifle. First, are you all right?

Yon, he said, yeah, I'm all right. and he said, what's my rifle? I said, it's two you ride up, just right there beside you. Fill around. He found, he said, okay, I'm good to go. So look, we're walking home, and we had to walk about four miles to go to this pond. Well, a limb had just skinned all the hair he had under his arm. Okay, so he's walking and didn't pay attention.

He starts sweating because we walk in four miles. He said, oh, good crap, I'm on fire. What's wrong? You know, he said, hey, hey, look, what's wrong? And I said, dude, I said, you're, you're, you've been in some serious pain for quite a while. Mm. I said, all the hair under your arm is gone. Just ripped off.

It's just raw, you know, raw meat, you know. And he said, yeah, so look, the next day he comes to school in his arms like this, well, you know what's going to happen with his buddies. Oh, yeah. They're idiots. Use one of them. Well, I didn't grab him and pull his arm down, but all the rest of them did. Did you laugh at that, too? No, no, I didn't laugh at that, y'all.

Sight tells a story about man falling 40-foot out tree. He can't stop laughing. Well, no, no, it was, hey. He's only one that can do that, too. Every limb he grabbed would hold him for just about 1001, 1002. Well, it's probably the only thing that kept him alive. No, no, that's the only thing that saved it. Yeah.

Just slowing down that much every little. a little time he hit a limb it would hold him for two seconds. 40 foot ain't no joke. No, that's up there. Oh, no. I rode a 22-foot ladder stand down the tree one time. Oh, I did that myself. And buddy?

Yeah, that ain't fun. Because, hey, right here. I couldn't imagine double that. Oh, no. Because I didn't think I was ever going to get to the ground. No, no. I'm scared. You're just looking at that ground like, I ain't ever getting it.

I was the same way you was. But, hey, yeah. When I finally just, boom, hit the ground. ground. I just, ah, because it was on the pine tree. Yeah. And I had pines up all in my chest where it it just ate me up my arms. Y'all boy shirtless all the time. Oh no, hey, it was rough. No, I had a shirt on, but, oh, they just like the Gar Commanders. Just like the Gar Commanders. I'm a big fan of Gar Commanders. Oh, yes. I don't know. Hey, do you all on that trademark? Because I just hung that nickname on them because they were obsessed with going and getting gone.

I didn't even if we did, I would never, as GM of this company, I would never send them a cease and desist letter. Go forth and prosper, young guard commanders. That's right. Go for it. I will support you. I will support you in your endeavors. Let me just say that.

Endeavour to Percival. Oh, yeah, they're a real deal. Yeah. Or they're doing them catching them boys. Well, and they got initiative. Oh, yeah. They're working hard. They're being little rednecks.

I love it. I'm glad to see that. Being little rednecks. Yeah, they're hoping for the country. You know they got them yellow crocs on the clearance rack. I mean, they ain't shopping premium. Yellow? Who gives yellow shoes?

That's my boy. I know. I mean, like, I love it, man. That's good for them. I hold my kids is like that. Little entrepreneurs. I like it. Hey, they made a bunch of money on that lemonade.

Yeah. Well, they clipped me for 10. The coolest part of the lemonade stand was whenever he walked inside the, and I was like, what's he doing? And he went to the bathroom. And he started hanging out. And I was like, hold on. We run a business here.

I'm giving you a corner of the parking lot. Then all of a sudden, the Johnny's Pizza Man walks in. I was like, nah, bro, we didn't order nothing. And he was like, oh, I did. My man just ordering pizza to his lemonade stand. That's good. He gave me a little piece. Hey, have a glass of lemonade.

And if you want to, grab you a 10. Well, the problem is their lemonade was terrible. And I still gave him 10 bucks. But, I mean, it was not good. We changed. He ran out of ice long before I got there. We changed up the rest. I noticed their sign didn't say ice cold lemonade.

It just said lemonade. So they technically weren't false advertising. Went limine. Because it was it was water hose temperature lemonade. Like it was, wasn't hot, wasn't cold, it's just there. You're like, ah, hmm. Is that temperature where it leaves a film in your mouth? It wasn't good lemonade.

Yeah, it's terrible. But I gave them $10 and didn't complain about it. I was like, congratulations. You remember when you used to be able to drink out of a water hose? I worry about it. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I drank.

Well, we didn't have water coolers playing football for the longest time. We had a water hose. We had PVC pipe with holes punched. We had PVC on saw horses. Tied to the water hose. The holes drilled in the PVC. Yeah, going this way. That was awesome.

And the timing was everything. Because if you went quick, it's going to be hot. Mm-hmm. Yeah. But if you waited too long, you missed. It's the cold section too, so it's kind of like you got up there and boxed out. You just kind of, okay, now we got a something. You don't want to be the first one there.

Now everybody got pirating, gatorade, practicing inside and all the things. Practicing inside. Football is an indoors. Artificial turf. Yeah. There you go. Well, let's take our last break. I got a few emails.

Yeah, well, good. Let's do it. Gar commander. All right, you ready, Martin? Yeah. That old email segment. Hello at Duck Call Room. Also, Beth's been reading your Facebook comments and Facebook messages and Instagram.

And screenshots them and send them there too. Those are fantastic. Today we got a few emails. Noah emails in. He got into duck hunting about five years ago. I got into duck hunting about five years again now. He's not a great typer. So he's still a little new, but he's a very avid duck hunter.

but he hears us sometimes say stuff about wood not shooting wood ducks I just wanted to know what's the nobody wanting to shoot Woody's I've never said that I was like I said you ain't heard that here that's got a little bit but Martin's okay Martin's the

wood duck purest we only shoot woodies if they come into decoys that's probably he may have been watching our YouTube I don't shoot fly-by-woodies because I like the wood ducks to be my decoys when I'm not there. I don't want to run them out of the country. So if they come in a decoys, that's why most of it, if you see me duck hunting online or any of that stuff. And if I shoot a woody, 99% of the time it's a ground swat.

Oh, he comes in and live and I kill them. I just don't, I don't shoot them flying by. But me and Woody's also have a very tight. relationship. See, that's what I did my graduate school research on was Woody's. So, like, I got a soft spot for the wood duck. Like, I love to eat him. He's a beautiful duck. And he's beautiful. And I'll tax him when I'm really duck hungry. Like, if I need just three ducks to eat, yeah, okay. Come on. Yeah, like, I know where to go get them. But as the most part, I don't shoot them a lot. Because I love it. Well, and they're catching a bad deal.

See, so they're cavity nesters. Yep. And we just keep clearing down the forest. So, eventually they're not going to have a place to nest and if you keep that up then we don't have woodedies anymore unless you replace it with wood duck boxes so they catch a raw deal like mallards and all that can nest on the ground do nest on the ground but these need hollow trees to nest in so i i take it easy on the woodies and they're good for for making fishing baits yeah top notch because if you put a top notch on a certain size hook then put a spinner in front of it's called a hackle okay and you throw it out there and you floof it. You put it, it slicks down,

and then it fluffs out. And when it fluffs out, a bass will come 50 yards to get it, boys. But rest assured, if you're like one of them people, I'll tell you, I give you this piece of advice. If you're one of those people's been ducking up in a long time and you've never killed a banded duck. Star Sheen Woods.

You go kill you three Woody's a day for the whole season. That's our limit here. I don't know about everybody. else but key three woodies a day for the season you will run into you a shiny little duck band because we banned a lot of them so so does indiana everywhere that i say we when i i've been collective as a country because you're studying their habitat loss and all that stuff so america's banding woodies yeah all right jonathan emails in and he just went side to tell a story on an episode of unashamed a while back jace told a story about fishing in a boat with size

and how Jace's lure accidentally caught your ear? Oh, yeah. I've been hung three or four times fishing. And he? Idiots. They're dangerous. This is your nephew. Well, hey, the best one is.

So I thought it was a bee sting according to Jace. What's your side of the story? No. We ain't one old beasting. He hooked me in the ear with a bait. But anyway, Phil was fishing with a guy, one of his buddies from high school, okay with a

guy what's the long not a tiny torpedo but the other one devil horse devil horse air spood hey yeah he was throwing it

smidwick well the guy's behind him or something maybe the guy through it and got hung up and when he pulled it loose it comes and hooks him right there in the forehead oh yeah just at the base

I mean it's already went through well all Phil does he said hold up I'll help you out No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He just pulled it. That's a good one. Off of his forehead? I thought that was the back of the hand thing where you cut off the mountain top.

Oh, he's cut off the mountain of a bunch of stuff. Oh, no. On the forehead? Yeah, he don't care. Phil cut a plug out of you in a heartbeat. No, no, he said, hey, I'll take care of it. Don't worry about it. He just pulled it where it was tight, and then just right there against the hook, just with a pocket eye.

Well, it's a piece of skin about the size of my little finger. Yeah, a little chunk of meat, y'all. A little chunk of meat. It's better. if you got somebody that won't grab a knife, he'll grab some nylon line and put it on it, and you can actually pull the hook out when you put the line right on the hook.

Yeah, you can do the braided line trick. Yeah. Or if it's all the way through, you can just get you a pair of side cutters. I keep a pair of side cutters in my boat. Just cut the end off of it. Cut the end off of it, and they're going to hook him. Or you can, yeah, you can run it out yourself

and get the bar about the other side. I just can't, the forehead cutting the top off the mountain. It's got me queasy. Have you ever seen this movie? Yeah. That Phil ain't always been a good person. I'm just saying. It seems like a better route than.

I don't tell you, my dad. It's definitely the quickest. Look, my dad and my brother are what I call hard men. Okay, there's not a lot of guilt. You know, they ain't, yeah. You know, just suck it up. I'm just going to cut a little bit of his skin off your forehead. Look it up.

But what's your very? version of the story where Jace hooked you in the ear. He just, hey, he's done this and it caught me in the ear. You know, and it just ripped it, you know, he'll back up. I got hit in the face one time with a spinner bait. That hurt. Oh, that's many times, but it just hit me all over. And Jacob Wheeler hit me right between the eyes with a frog one time.

That boy set to hook hard. Oh, he? Oh, yeah. No, that was coming back, and I was like, I'm about to eat this one. I mean, you couldn't get out of the way of it. Yeah. No. I just closed my eyes.

I didn't know where it was going to hit me. I just knew somewhere here. Yeah. My brother had brought a brand new rod, put it on a reel, and I was using it. First time a big bass up there on Moss Lake hit it. Hey, I set the hook, snap. Oh, I bet you got in trouble. No, no, rod wasn't any good.

Hey, wouldn't the ugly stick. Right. Rod wasn't any good. It wasn't. Oh, my word. Oh, okay. Cy slacklined them from about 10 feet. Oh, this rod's a piece of crap.

You probably tried to take it back, too, didn't you? Yeah, I took it back. I said, hey, give me my money back for this piece of junk. You get it at the honey hole? No. I'd have told him, it looks like he had to have a hook to you. Because, hey, it was a. Cy of Walmart shop.

No, hey, it was Garcia Mitchell Mitchell Wheel on it. You know, hey. Garcia Mitchell Mitchell, they gave me. I had three that we had four out. Pure Fishing, if you're listening, he's a marketing nightmare for you. Oh, no, no. No, no. Hey, they stand behind.

their product. They gave me three brand new reels. Is that Garcy and Mitchell? Oh, Garcia and Mitchell. This was back in 1972. When everybody thought everything was lifetime warranted for some reason. When Sy was out breaking

stuff. And the last email I have is the strangest one we might have gotten ever. There's a new conspiracy theory out there. I don't get it. Okay. there's apparently another podcast out that needs to go away about conspiracies

um that helen keller was just a normal person and wasn't real is the new well that's just somebody being stupid i'm just confused on why don't be confused somebody's asking you was real why is that a conspiracy what do they ask i what you y'all if hell she wasn't blind deaf or mute okay and what does that change well that's that was kind of her thing I understand that but like what I'm confused by it how is that a conspiracy that's what I'm saying

like whether she was or she wasn't if she was it's a bad deal if she wasn't she's wanting to live with it not somebody's telling the loud he was why are we why are we going to this extent of conspiracies now I mean we didn't land on the moon but

the next will be mountain man doesn't really talk like that doesn't right yeah He doesn't actually It's all a stage Yeah It's all the world to the stage He auditioned for that part Over and over again

And we finally hired him Yeah he wouldn't go away To be it Yeah that's a weird one By the way yeah Luke from North Carolina The conspiracy theory world Is the slippery slope

And you're on it No he ain't on it No he's at the bottom He doesn't slid down that slope If you've made it all the way To Helen Keller Wouldn't who they say she was I don't

And the history is there Yeah, that's a weird one. History or not. I mean, what doesn't matter? I'm just saying. I just don't understand what it matters. All right. I think Stone, you're ready to...

Stoll's had enough. He ready to go get a canop. A can nap. Stom been on that morning deer hunting, man. Well, give us something. Hey, give us something positive. Titus 2.13. We wait for the blessed hope of the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
