Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, welcome back to a very special eclipsing edition. It's happening right now outside. Isn't it? I guess. Yeah. It gets dark when it's cloudy. I don't understand these glasses that you're supposed to look at things through because I cannot see anything.
Starting point is 00:00:26 Can you see me? No. No. What if you look like directly at the lights in here? Nothing. So they're like many little welding glasses? Is that what they are? That is exactly what they are.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Okay. You can not see a thing. You can see through welding stuff. So how many eclipses if you live for? I don't know. Have you ever been in a total eclipse? Yeah, I have, but I didn't know it. Just like right now, I don't know it.
Starting point is 00:00:50 Right now, they ain't on light nowhere in here. That's right. That's because the moon's in front of sun. So them all pretty good. That's why they ain't no light. I saw it ever so briefly. There clouds were moving. and I saw like half the sun.
Starting point is 00:01:06 No, you didn't. And then my eyeballs hurt, and I said, well, I'm not going to do that anymore. So you actually got to witness it. Partial eclipse. But we're not in the path of totality. I had no way too much about this. Yeah, no ACE base here.
Starting point is 00:01:20 No. You didn't see the sign? It opened up my eyes. Anyway, but when I drove up here, there was 15 people in the parking lot just looking at clouds. I know. I thought there was a fire alarm.
Starting point is 00:01:36 I didn't know what was going on when I go. I said, they're doing a fire. Hey, look, here's what I tell you. When the boss lady says, hey, everybody,
Starting point is 00:01:44 let's go outside and look at the eclipse. On a cloudy day. You just go. It was Corey's acting. And they were handing out moon pies, so of course I'm going on. That would have been good.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Ooh. Yeah. There's double-decker vanilla moon pies. Yeah, I'm sure it is. Well, you cut one in half. No,
Starting point is 00:02:03 I ain't doing it. Okay. I'm with Godwin. I mean, they're not great. I'm a vanilla moonside guy anyway. But they're vanilla. They're vanilla double-decker moves. Go get one.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Go get one. I'll split it with you. I'm good. I'm passing. There's star crunches in there too. Isn't that your other favorite? That's the two snacks they brought. Let's just keep going.
Starting point is 00:02:24 I've been doing good. I've been doing good. We got him. Star crunches. Did they bring Sunny D's to drink? You know? No. Nobody thought about the drink side of the party, but that's Corey.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Bang pie. That's Corey's bangs on. Any reason to have a little small party, we have it. Yeah, so that's what everybody was doing outside when you pulled up. A star crunch and a glass of milk. We ain't have no milk either. Okay, then I'm good. There is a high dollar lens right on the edge of that table, just ready to be knocked.
Starting point is 00:02:57 That's right? Ready to be knocked off? That's actually a true statement, Hunter. Yep. Yeah. Hunter? He literally jumped when he saw it. And now he's, oh.
Starting point is 00:03:06 If you would have touched that monitor. That's that. Bam. We wouldn't be talking to Hunter no more. We'd be talking to. If you would have been over there listening to Necrogoblican and the vibrations off of that death metal that you went to this weekend would have knocked that lens off of that. I'm not even notice it there.
Starting point is 00:03:24 I'm glad you noticed it. Hunter, how much that T-shirt hit you for? $40. $40. $40. Where did y'all go see it? This band called Necored. Goblicon.
Starting point is 00:03:34 How did you remember how to pronounce that? I can read his shirt. Okay. You drove to Baton Rouge. I did for that. Yeah. Yeah, my girlfriend. He did.
Starting point is 00:03:42 And she enjoyed it. She enjoyed it. They wanted to save the little green man. Yeah, the little green goblin. Dancing around on stage, making jokes. It was a lot of fun. Well, I think you might have yourself for keeping it. Because no one survives.
Starting point is 00:03:54 So look, here's the fun part. We're early enough in the podcast. Nobody's clicked off of it yet. I don't think. So. Folks, I do have a question. If you've ever heard of the band, Necro-Goblican, can you drop us a comment?
Starting point is 00:04:10 Please don't make it up. That'd be interesting. Legitimately. I had never heard of them, Hunter. I hadn't either. I'm normally your big supporter and the weird things you're into, but it's also things that the whole world's heard of like, Lord of the Rings or.
Starting point is 00:04:24 I like it. Star Wars, not. He looks like that little old dude. Like, my precious. Do not look like Smeagle. Thanks. What's his name? He's more awake.
Starting point is 00:04:35 He's not as small. He's talking about the little goblin. Yeah. He's not talking about it. There he is. Hunter drove an extended period of time to see this man sing songs. John Goblachan. Is that his last name?
Starting point is 00:04:49 Well, that is a convenient last name. If that's what you want to do with your life. That's pretty good marketing. The roads we go down. That is interesting, Hunter. But for those of you, in the full path of the eclipse too put a picture in the comments or something
Starting point is 00:05:05 I mean it's cloudy rainy nasty here so it got like I don't know didn't get dark it's like just a weird haze kind of appeared whenever it was supposed to be at its peak here and then it kind of went away
Starting point is 00:05:18 it was just kind of dull my sister drove my sister drove like a couple hours north to Arkansas and so it was the coolest thing she's ever seen really yeah I said well it looks like it's about to rain here And there's a job up there.
Starting point is 00:05:31 They did it. It got dark. I mean, plum dark. Oh, yeah, W.E was, he's in it there in Baldwin, and Searcy. Yeah. They're, they got dark. It's just dark outside.
Starting point is 00:05:42 You could see stars, streetlights come on. It was the wildest thing I ever seen. Now, it would have been a cool day to have been like, this happened in December to be duck hunting. Oh. What had it confused them? Well, they'd have thought they was coming in the roost and it would still be no shooting knives.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Yeah, but instead, you'd be there with shotguns. It'd be like a legal duck roost. That's right. The best day ever. That'd be tight. Come in. Like if you had a place that was known as a roost, but you could shoot them at like 1 o'clock in the evening.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Yeah. That'd be a bad deal for them. Oh, I bet you that messed up there, buddy. I wonder what, yeah. I wonder, like, did turkeys go to roost? It got darned. Yeah, in the path of it. I wonder what the critters did.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Or did they know it was coming and bought the glasses too? Oh, they did it was coming. Did they? They knew. I'm telling you. The question is, did the fish? Bats and all your, all your, all your, the wildlife. The wildlife.
Starting point is 00:06:40 This time of year when it gets started. They knew it was coming. They knew it was coming. Did you take a nap? Oh, of course. I want to take a nap. He knew it was coming. The wildlife knew it was coming.
Starting point is 00:06:51 It's also happened on my anniversary. Oh. Anniversary. 35 years. I got a question. Well, first off, congratulations. Thank you. That's a feat.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Did you really go with the gilly suit for Ms. Paula for your anniversary? Well, yeah. Look, he should have seen her when she opened that up this morning. We're drinking coffee. I said, I got you something. She said, what is it? She opened it up first. She said, come on that.
Starting point is 00:07:25 I said, keep going. Keep going. She was fired up over that. She got up, she said, a gilly suit, they're never going to see us now. I had how long to get to those days. So you're telling me I got 25 more years for them there. Just hanging there. Let me tell you.
Starting point is 00:07:43 Stick it out. It gets better all the time. The only way I'm getting to wear gilly suits is going to have to be reincarnation in the next life. Allison ain't in. Oh, they're actually fun. Oh, she was fired up. Oh, man. You've got to train pretty good.
Starting point is 00:07:59 What's she get you? I don't know yet. It's on the way. It's on the way. I think it's something metal, heavy, and holds a bunch of guns. She got you Necro-Goblicon tickets? Yes. Oh.
Starting point is 00:08:16 No, I'm kidding. You had me at metal and heavy. I didn't know. A heavy metal. Sorry, Hunter. Hunter, how long is it for you bring your girlfriend to work day, by the way? Yeah. Just so we're clear.
Starting point is 00:08:31 She's got to be off work and out of class. Doesn't she work for your mom? She's still talking to you? She's still talking to me, surprisingly. But doesn't she work for your mom? She does. Can you ask her mom for a hall pass to come sit in on the duck call room for like 20 minutes one day? She has to keep talking to her.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Yeah. Before my mom fires her. Whoa. Aggressive! You are in the clear now, girl. They cannot fire you just because he just said that. It's on record. He's not as stink as we dummy is.
Starting point is 00:08:59 so i'm trying to i'm trying to wait pat a little bit to make sure yeah to make sure to make sure what so what do you think do you think she'll be what do you think's going to happen first in your relationship you drop that l word or she comes on the duck call room whoa oh probably come on here first so what did they want to say he's trying to keep her far away i was actually just trying to make sure that he didn't say it over the weekend. I just don't want to a death metal concert with him. Well, he said it while the music was playing.
Starting point is 00:09:36 He never heard him. She said through two hours of that. Did people just fight in those? Is that like the thing? Like you just get in the middle and start swinging punches? You turned your mic off. You got to learn how those buttons work back there. New board.
Starting point is 00:09:51 This is what happened. Everyone was in sync bopping their heads up and down. And then every now and then you'd see a bunch of people doing the devil horns and then bopping their head up and down a little. That's not good. And nobody hit anybody? Nope. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Everyone was there to have a good time. I'd like to go to one of those with Stone and just watch him hurt somebody. You will never, ever. Find me at one of those. He'd have to pay a lot. I ain't going. He said, maybe for enough money.
Starting point is 00:10:19 You could get me there. You're not going to go there with me. I doubt it. Stone, if I could go with anybody on earth, it would be you. That's who I would like to go. I'd actually like to see Sye there because he's about half death. No. He wouldn't be able to hear much of it.
Starting point is 00:10:34 No, heavy metal. Not your thing. No. He's going to stick to Jamie Jice. Okay. I'm with. Is that your least favorite music, heavy metal? That and rapping.
Starting point is 00:10:46 I don't, you know, what the big deal about rappers are. Yeah. Somebody talking fast, just, you know, fast as they can talk.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Yeah. Yeah. You know what Caram alone calls rap. What? Crap. Crap. Well, I... That was a pretty good car on the moon impression, too.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Yeah. I like all music, you know, but some of them I just don't very much. 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.
Starting point is 00:11:22 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. It's our friend, South Rob. Robertson would say, buy on the grill. Look, before we got Tritels, getting ready for a cookout, man, somebody had to run the grocery store, do all the things, grab whatever was left in case you were late in the day. And you never really know where that beef comes from.
Starting point is 00:11:43 But with Tritels beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Triedales comes from a family ranch out in Texas. They're a fifth generation American ranch. So they've been at it for a while. Now, look, the beef comes straight from their ranch and other ranchers they work with who raise cattle the same way. their steaks are properly aged and shipped straight from the ranch to your door. We threw a couple of ribbys on the grill.
Starting point is 00:12:07 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.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Just go to Try Bell. beef.com slash that's trybeef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. Carbone. Local guy. Yeah. He's tall. Carmelon Toyota.
Starting point is 00:12:45 He's from Rustin. Dubot. Essentially. He lives in Rustin now. That's where I bought my truck. That's one thing the TV does not really show is how big these guys are. that play pro ball and all that. When you meet him a person, it's like,
Starting point is 00:13:06 I know what, Mr. Malone? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Or any of them. I like how you went with Mr. Malone. Yeah. Let me tell you. He'd come by here one day.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Yeah. With Greg Bemel, my former boss, from TP outdoors, because they're big buddies over there and resting. You know, out of resting people. Carl Malone is an outdoorsman, though. Oh, he is. That's why he come by here
Starting point is 00:13:29 because he had his new squirrel. dogs he wanted to show off. He spent an insane amount of money on some world champion squirrel dog. My dog's better than yours. Oh, that's actually fun. But I'm saying, well, the dog. That's a guy like I can get behind, you know, like made all his money.
Starting point is 00:13:47 The NBA moves back home to the middle of nowhere, Louisiana. And it starts buying squirrel dogs and Toyota dealerships. And I bet there is a stocked pond somewhere behind a gate that is what dreams are made of. He does have a high fence up there north of Dubok. I know that. I've been there. But he don't do nothing with it. He just like he lives there part of the time or something and just grows the deer and looks at them.
Starting point is 00:14:12 He don't hunt them. It's a weird deal. Don't let Paula hold that way. Yeah, no. You got a gillie suit now, though. He can get in. You probably make it past the cameras. No, she got to do.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Stop. Just slide on in there. Yeah. Boy, this is going to be a whole new world. You know, back in them days, basketball was actually fun of. watch. Charles Barclay,
Starting point is 00:14:32 the round mound rebound. You've got the Detroit bad boys with old Bill Lane beer and all that bunch.
Starting point is 00:14:39 Yeah. You go up for a layup is what happens. You're on the floor. On the floor. There wasn't a lot of weak fouls
Starting point is 00:14:44 back here. No, you earned. They were remember me foul. Yeah. But now, just like everything is.
Starting point is 00:14:52 Uh-oh. Oh, boy. I could go down a rabbit hole, but everybody knows what I'm talking about. To be fair, that one six-foot-seven
Starting point is 00:14:59 girl that was playing basketball in the championship yesterday? She hit a few people. She, six foot seven. He watched the women's basketball game. It was Caitlin Clark. I wanted to see if she could pull it off. She couldn't. Once you're six, seven. No, South Carolina Warren.
Starting point is 00:15:17 Really? That's when you ain't got nothing to do. I did not have anything to do. You are correct. Well, I ain't got nothing to do. And to be fair, I did watch the fourth quarter. Oh, I watched ladies play softball and basketball. give off.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Careful. Because he likes the ladies. That's right. I like the lady. Yeah. No, right. Now,
Starting point is 00:15:38 that's one thing. I don't understand why they don't have pro softball. Because nobody watches it. Oh, they watch it.
Starting point is 00:15:48 They watch it. Nobody I know. Yeah, they watch it. Well, you know me. I watch it all the time. I really enjoy watching.
Starting point is 00:15:57 They got them big fans. They're good. They're good at what they do. Yeah, I'm sure they are. He said because nobody didn't watch. Oh, yeah. Martin, what did you just send me? I sent you a picture.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Martin, did somebody bring you zebra cakes, zebra cakes? Yeah, where have you been? That was my man, that was my man Lane. I was up in Chilacothe, Missouri, speaking to a men's group. Say that 10 times real fast. Chilacothy, Missouri, Chilacothy, Missouri. Faster now. Well, I can't talk no faster now.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Plus it's an ad- He and a rapper. But, no, he did. My man, Lane, watches a podcast, and they had just got done. They were re-watching some, him and his dad,
Starting point is 00:16:43 and they went through the snack bracket one, and Lane brought his favorite snack cake for me to bring back here. Zebra cake is nothing. They didn't make it. No, they're still in my suitcase. I ain't unpacked yet. I had a kind of an eventful,
Starting point is 00:16:58 eventful day yesterday coming back home and the guys there so I stayed for church the next morning and we did a Q&A with the pastor and all that but you know I told them like I got to be home we work and record podcasts all that stuff so they have
Starting point is 00:17:14 one of their members fly me on his plane back home Hey you could have seen the eclipse if you would have stayed there probably yeah I would have stayed But I can't imagine that the weather would have got any better Of course, it couldn't have got much worse than what we flew in yesterday.
Starting point is 00:17:30 I mean, it was like the choppiest lake you've ever been on. In the plane? The whole way, just like, the whole time felt like, because we had like a 60-knock crossware. We didn't have air-ride seats in there. Well, we was riding the air, that's for sure. But no, and then, so like the whatever, air traffic control kept us super high until we got like 15 minutes from Monroe. And then we had to go straight down.
Starting point is 00:17:57 and I threw a little opening in the clouds. Well, the clouds were kind of broken around here. They were just thunderheads all around. And man, yeah, I almost went to a doctor this morning because my right ear was killing me. And I almost burst my eardrum. So I had a little bloody spot where she said, well, I now know where the weak spot of your ear drum is. She said, that's where it was going to happen. If you'd have been in that descent just a little bit longer, it would have probably went ahead and busted.
Starting point is 00:18:25 So, yeah, my right. ear is trash right now. So if you if you need to tell me something important and I'm not facing you, just don't be on this side of me because I'm not going to hear it. I'm going to hear a low mumble and assume that you're not talking to me. So, but yeah, no, that was a lot of fun. Man, Chilacothy, Missouri is actually fun fact, because I like to find out things about these places when we go. Fun fact. That is the first place a loaf of sliced bread was sold. Was in Chilicotay. Missouri. They were the first ones to cut the bread. They were the first ones to cut
Starting point is 00:19:01 a whole loaf of bread, package it, and sell it. And it's also the home of the original Robin from Batman and Robin. Really? From like the OG Batman and Robin. That's probably a fact Hunter appreciates there.
Starting point is 00:19:17 That's pretty hard. Like the one where he would like, pow! No, even before that. Yeah. Like. There was one before that? This was in the Stone Ages. Yeah. This was back Way back in them 1900. Yeah. But yeah, so that's, yeah, fun facts about Chilacothe, Missouri.
Starting point is 00:19:34 They slice bread. It was a good time, though. That's better than slice bread. I have fact checked you just because I was like, the Chilocotheans are probably just telling you this. Yeah. There's nothing better. Nope, it's true.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Well, first commercial people to cut it was the Chilicothe's baking company. Also, I said Chilicotheans real fast there, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that's right. I bet you granny talked them into it. I don't go ahead and cut that up. They seem fine. You know, I had never been,
Starting point is 00:20:04 you know, on social media, all these people that hunt and everything. I see them always talking about that Casey's gas station up there and like how good the pizza and all that stuff is. That stuff is trash, man. Don't. I mean,
Starting point is 00:20:15 it's all right, but it's still pizza, so it's okay. But Casey's ain't Bucky's y'all. Oh. I mean, I'm just telling you right now. You just started a minute.
Starting point is 00:20:26 middle America, culture war. Hey, look, Casey ain't Bucky. I wonder if I'm telling the beaver does it better. I've been to both. But Buckees doesn't have pizza. No, but if they did, you know it would be good. No, they got brisket. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Which is. And they got good brisket. Yeah. Texas gas stations got better brisket than our restaurants do. But see, Buckees is up there in Missouri too. They said there was one just right down the road. So you weren't impressed with Casey's. No, I mean, it was, I mean, it's better than like the Hunt's
Starting point is 00:20:56 other stuff, but it still, it ain't, you know, I mean, pizza's weird, man. And it's all good. This whole right down the road is legit. Which is? Flying heart. Oh, the flying heart and the flying tiger. We got two good pizza joints. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:12 They're both in the air. Oh, they're both flying. They're both flying. I get them both confused a lot. One's West Monroe, one's Monroe, right? Yeah. Yeah. We got some good pizza in this town.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Because it's pizza. Amen. And pizza's good. Carter doesn't turn into a pizza snob, though. If he shows up to, like, a kid's party and they got little Caesars, I got to, like, pull him aside and say, please don't be rude. Because he'll be like, why he got this one-star trash pizza here? I'm like, he's been hanging out with us too much.
Starting point is 00:21:47 He literally, if you say, hey, you want Little Caesars, he'll go, trash, one-star, moving on. So we can't eat Little Caesars at our house. That's a shame. I don't actually mind little seizures. I mean, I don't want to eat it every night, but in a bind. It's not the best, but... No. To call it trash and one star is aggressive.
Starting point is 00:22:04 Yeah, but for seven bucks. I mean, seven bucks, seven bucks. Well, I did something I've never done before. What did you do? I took a rib-out steak, about an inch and a half. I put two sticks of butter in a cast iron skillet. Two whole sticks? Two whole sticks of butter.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Melted the butter down. Put that steak with and put some thine. and garnet with that with that butter then I let that steak bathe in that butter for one hour one hour in the oven on about 185 slow cooked yeah in the butter it's soaked up yeah half that butter I got that great and real hot about a minute and a half on each side internal temperature is about 1.28 let it rest for about 10 minutes. It was good.
Starting point is 00:23:00 What are you talking about? That sounds rich. Well, I took a buy out of it. It was just butter was just pouring down my beard. The only thing that would have made it better.
Starting point is 00:23:11 You're seeing all the juices inside. There's a little bit of Justin's South Cajun. Put a little wine in there with it. A little wine for whatever. And then take a shot of wine yourself. You know what?
Starting point is 00:23:24 That probably would have done it. Oh, no, no. a little bit of wine in that butter Oh no wouldn't have been bad I didn't put two sticks I would say probably a half a stick
Starting point is 00:23:37 I'm just thinking of half quick I'm just thinking a half quick I'm just thinking a half quick out of bed Yeah no no well it's enough in it that it's float and butter Yeah we knew that fire was so hot It sealed all that butter on the inside of that state
Starting point is 00:23:50 I got to try that Yeah I'd have been I'd have been headed I'd have been taking a bite walking toward the bathroom I mean, because I ain't going to not eat it. You got to have a restaurant. But that's a segment going to be brought to you by dude wipes. Mine's a saltwater butter.
Starting point is 00:24:07 Saltwater butter. Yeah. I like that. You would think it would be real salty tasting and it's not. What is saltwater butter? I like saltwater taffy. At Amish butter, you know, almost eat it like that. I got a good.
Starting point is 00:24:21 I like the Amish butter. It comes in a thing as big as your head. And it's got a fingerprint. It's all that from the Amish. And they make good butter, those good old pensions. And they make even better icing for pies. Hold on, what? They make good rocking chairs, too.
Starting point is 00:24:37 When did you have Amish ice? In Indiana, I went up there and had an event with the Amish people. And the lady brought me a fresh baked apple pie with, not apple pie, coconut pie with the ice that you do with egg white because hey
Starting point is 00:24:59 I'm telling me the egg whites marine well meringue meringue was a half a foot deep
Starting point is 00:25:07 just did it have a six eggs a cow slubber oh no and I said how in the world did you get that
Starting point is 00:25:14 she said fresh fresh eggs fresh eggs right from the chicken yeah we need to have an office
Starting point is 00:25:23 Look, I'm telling you, it was deep as he's bottle of. I think we can't. Well, then how did they know to get Si? Oh, it was. What do you mean? I ate that whole pie. I ate that whole pie. I bet you did.
Starting point is 00:25:35 I'm serious, I did. The one was just up here in the Amish country. I was. Well, why can't they come on our show? I just got questions. Yeah, me too. Because they don't have electricity, but, I mean, it's not like size worldwide known without electricity.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Well, you go out there. at night and you hear generators going. Yeah, but see, here's the good thing. Here's the good thing about them. They don't need technology. They did to watch Duck Dynasty. That's all I'm saying. Like, they might not need to fill the house and make butter.
Starting point is 00:26:10 When it comes to living, they do not need technology. They went to a friend's house and watched it. It's all old school. But podcast listening is not old school. Could you be Amish, so? No. No. Nope. He's new school, baby.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Scared to hard work. No, I enjoy it. Well, yeah. Allergic to him. Yeah. No, no. That's true. No, no.
Starting point is 00:26:32 Hey, look, the boy knows. He got an inside bathroom. He goes to. The man's been with me for 25 years. He knows me. I'm like managing you crowd. Work, work. No, no.
Starting point is 00:26:46 No. No. That was good. I love back. He said, no. Wait, yeah. I'll admit to that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:54 So why, other than that, why couldn't you be? Oh, other than that, I would love to be in their lifestyle. I'm serious. Oh, it was just the hard work. Well, no, no, yeah. Because, look, here's the deal. Well, you're going to do that to survive. No, no.
Starting point is 00:27:12 No. I love this, man. No, you don't. No, you don't. I'm leaving proof of that. You're just got to be smart about it. And you got to remember, you can't. can't be dumb, you got to be funny.
Starting point is 00:27:25 That's right, you got to be funny and smart and funny. I ain't dumb and funny. So what would happen if you ended up Amish? Well, you know, in the Western, our men feel love Westerns. It's true. I would have been the fast gun kid that come into town that got killed the first day comes to town.
Starting point is 00:27:45 You challenge that, buddy? I'm just telling you the truth, okay? I'm not as good as I think I am, okay, so I'm going to get killed. Heaven. I may praise Jesus for that assessment of yourself, and I think there's a lot of us that could benefit from that. I'm not as good as I think I am. He said he said he said he'd be dead first. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:13 I wouldn't never go to town inside. You, hey, this is going back to okay. and your mama. Mama told you not to take your guns to town, boy. I wouldn't have, yeah, I would not have walked in the saloon with South. No.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Yeah, because you hate danger, danger area. But it would have been fun like playing poker in the Old West with him. That'd have been fun. He would have been fun. No, he got shot there. Hey, well, no.
Starting point is 00:28:41 No, they keep him around. No. Jace wouldn't last long. Hey, Chase would have got shot. Yeah. Yeah, Jace would have got shot. Now I need to know. So, all right, we're doing Western characters.
Starting point is 00:28:57 Who is Johnny D in a Western? Johnny T is Gabby Hayes. I don't know who that is, but you think it's hilarious and I love it. Oh, no, he's a, what? He was Roy Rogers' sidekick for a while. He's a good-looking man. I'll give him that. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Oh, no, hey, he's a character now. He ain't got no front teeth. Yeah. Gabby Hayes. I thought you were going to say he was like the actor guy in Tombstone, you know, to come rolling through town on us. Just making it until he made him. Just rolling his way from town to town and the theater doing the stand-up and stuff
Starting point is 00:29:35 and then just move on out of town. Who's goblin? Guy would be Frog Mill House. Frog Mill. I'm on. I'm on the West Jersey. All good. Gene Archie's,
Starting point is 00:29:50 Jean Archie's sidekick. Smiley Birdie. Okay, the singing cowboy. I got it. The singing is a singing cowboy. I can't to tune in a bucket, though. Well, that's fine. No, no, Gene Archie was the singer.
Starting point is 00:30:01 That's why he said, frog millhouse. Hey, look, he had a deep voice. He says, you're like a frog. If you've ever heard a big frog in the swamp. Yeah. Just. That's frog millhouse when he talks. All right.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Stoned. Who's stone? this ought to be good i gotta think about that well if i'm easier go and throw me one out so now you put one on the spot i had these two down you're in stone present a problem what's the problem because no because right now can't come up with anybody big got to be john way huh i ain't no you ain't no i ain't to do bar no i'm trying to think of the bad oh what's that old guy that Burley looks like. Phil tells
Starting point is 00:30:52 barely he looks just like. Oh, yeah. Randall Tex Cobb. I don't know who that is. I know. I'm seeing him in my mind. Randall Texx.
Starting point is 00:31:02 I'm in. There's Randall Tech's Kyle. Yeah. Yeah. That's Burley. That's Bernie. He was an American actor, martial artist and former
Starting point is 00:31:13 professional boxer. Well, Stone, that could be you. In the heavy one. Not quite. That's fun. Stoll would be Dr. Holiday. Doc Holliday. That's a big one.
Starting point is 00:31:28 That's good. That's a good one. I was hoping you weren't going to say Johnny Ringo. Yeah. I'll be huckaberry. Yeah. I ain't worried about me. Johnny, if we weren't friends, I just couldn't bear it.
Starting point is 00:31:45 Oh, that's a good time. I'd be the little monk walking through town. Don't worry. Friar tucking it, you know, all the way through. Slim. Yeah, there you go. You know, it was, it was a 1950, okay, when I was young, like on first grade. But if you would have come to our house and looked at how we lived, you would have thought it was the 1850s.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Because we got mules and horses, we got hogs, we got cows, milk cows, and everything was. done, okay, that's why I'm saying the Amish people, they're still living that way. Yeah, and it's like they get up 5 o'clock in morning. You'll take care of feeding everything. Don't milk the cows, y'all. We poke fun
Starting point is 00:32:35 at the Amish guys a little bit, but look, I know they have spent... You can say what you want, they won't hear it. Yeah, see, there you go. But, no, I'm telling you, when we used to do this show in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, It used to be called the Great Outdoors show or Great American Outdoors show. I don't know if it still is or not.
Starting point is 00:32:55 But we did that show and it's like two and a half weeks long. When I started here, Gobham would go, me and Gobin would swap out. So like one of us would go on the front end, stay half of it, and then fly home and then drive back and then vice versa. But them Amish guys come in there every day to spend their hard-earned money with us. and they shook your hand and handed you a sweaty whatever dollar bill it was, 5, 10, 20, 100. And them men's handshakes were so strong.
Starting point is 00:33:27 And I mean, the first time, you know, I just went in there like casual handshaked one of them. I never forget it. And I said, boy, is he ever going to let go? And after that, I didn't go in half cocking or more with them boys. Them? They're like a bunch of burlys just hanging out together.
Starting point is 00:33:41 And their hands are so rough. Oh, like, and just, you know. know. All they do is work with them hands and do all the things. So my hat's off to them boys. We make fun of them about their different little sections of, you know, you can watch TV at a buddy's house, but you can't at the, whatever. I mean, that is what it is.
Starting point is 00:33:59 But, no, as far as just hard working Americans, you're going to be hard-pressed finding any of them better than that. See, I'm going to tell your story. Y'all going to thank you so lie. Because there used to be a guy worked. Okay, cotton gin in the town I grew up in. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:34:18 They bail a 500 pound bail of cotton. A guy used to load the wagon himself. Picking that 500 pound bail of cotton said it in a wagon, go get another one. He was like Bernie. He looked like burly. He picked it up. He didn't roll it. No.
Starting point is 00:34:38 He picked it up. He would pick it up and put it in a wagon, grab it another one, put it in a wagon, grab it on, put about three. Just tossing. He just threw it. No, he'd throw it. He had it on his back and would just set it down.
Starting point is 00:34:50 He got it on his back? But he would pick it up, okay. What they bind it with? Huh? What they bind it with? Wire. I don't know what they actually, but no, I think it's plastic strips. That's heavy.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Yeah, that's heavy. And he would grab, he would grab the strips. We did them 100 pound bells of alfalfa one time, but it was broke bound. And I thought it was going to rip my hands to shreds, picking up at the ground by the little bitty ropes. No, no, because that thing was about square as just two tables here. And about, it was a little bit higher. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:27 He would back up to it, grab the strap, pick it up, and go to the wagon, turn around and put in his wagon. Was his name John Coffey? No, but he reminds me of burglary, okay? Yeah. Because his biceps, what was the guy that was the wrestler? Oh, the arm. Oh, not for basketball, though, arm. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:46 Oh, master. He had, he had arms like that guy, like this. We all six tried to arm wrestle him and he beat us. Yeah. Yeah. That's six grown human beings. He's a professional. Well, he's all about technique.
Starting point is 00:36:03 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's about technique, right? I can't have a hold of my hand. I said, uh-oh. I have messed up here. And then they went through that lock. thing. I was like, no, that's trash.
Starting point is 00:36:14 I'm done. You ain't hurting me. Lay me on down, big dog. I ain't even going to give you no resistance. You ain't hurting me. You know what's impressive about this podcast, how we flow from topic to topic. Just never miss it. With ease.
Starting point is 00:36:30 We were talking about that. We're masters of nothing, but pretty good at transitions. Well, you know, we grew up with a line all around us. You can't bull crowd. a bull crapper.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Well, you got five kings of it right here, buddy. You got one that sells fishing baits. You got one. You got one who's training was selling guns and following Willie Robertson around. You got one who wrote a book that was about 95% true stories. Or false. No, that's 95% true. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Depends. No, it don't depend on nothing. That's the truth of the matter. He's got a guy on a former bull rider, mill hand. He wasn't in a paper mill for crying out. We got the flying flea. And motorcrosser.
Starting point is 00:37:23 So he's been around that stuff his whole life. And then a man that gave his life to the military there for a little while and then come back and had to wrangle children. And might be able to hurt you now worse than he ever has in his life. I'm in my prime. And see prime. Exactly. You get a collection of guys like that together and we can,
Starting point is 00:37:42 We can go along with the flow about. We do have a keen better for me. Oh, ain't no doubt. That's why I said. He wrote a book on it. He wrote a book on how to do it well. Well, psychology. That's what's so funny about that.
Starting point is 00:37:59 It took them two years to convince me to write the book. Well, you didn't want to give up all your trade secrets. Well, no, no. Because I told him when you asked me about it. I said, hey, look, I've lived my life. It's not that interesting. you know and he said hey look let me tell you he said look who wrote what who wrote the first one field or willie
Starting point is 00:38:21 willy first one was field i thought it was no it was filled by jimmy frank and then it got rebranded remember it was like the legend of the duck commander but anyway and then it got redone to happy happy happy here's why he sold so so many to write the book you know i was telling i said hey look how to live this life's not that i ain't got that much of you know to do and he said hey trust me let me tell you he said phil wrote one it wasn't number one he said willie wrote the next one it went number one he said hey you need to write your book and i guarantee you this you'll sell more than phil and willie put together did you so it's still available on amazon psychology one
Starting point is 00:39:03 but there's an audio audio sample that's don't oh the difference between a cat and a lie is that a cat only has nine lives. Hey, let me tell you something. Where I grew up, cats didn't have nine lives. They generally had just one. There weren't many second chances when the Robertsons were involved. There's your little taste. There's your little taste.
Starting point is 00:39:30 I sat in a glass box and read that book for three days. Oh, my goodness. I'll never recover from that. That's the biggest bunch of bull cat. See? I've ever read in my life. And look, I would start, when I'd be reading it and start laughing, and the guy's like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:39:50 You can't be laughing. I said, this ain't true. This is funny. I know for a fact, this is not true. I said, whatever. I'll read it anyway. Oh, that's good. There was some jokes in there that I've never heard before.
Starting point is 00:40:06 Well, the reason it took size along the writer is he didn't want any copyright in for instance from Jerry Clare. Yeah. He didn't want Terry coming down and said, I think you got part of that for me now. I don't know. I think that's something that was funny. I remember.
Starting point is 00:40:24 I'm still scarred. Johnny De, are you in that inbox? Oh, of course I am. I'm close to it. Laudder, dude. Hello at duck call room.com. That is an inbox. I was reading about old Yeller when we were talking about westerns,
Starting point is 00:40:41 and if we would make it, I'd have been that kid. Oh, my. who needed a dog to save his life a lot. Okay, here's the first one. Zach and Serena from Deer Creek, Illinois, they watched the blind and this picture right here came up. Uh-oh. That's a good-looking man, but they said that...
Starting point is 00:41:02 That's a rifle. He looked like he'd shaved since his military days in this picture. So what is this picture of you? That is me when I was in Germany. Yeah, I about to say. I think I... Hunt with the Yeagers. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Is that those ice binoculars? Ain't no tell them back in. Well, I don't know if I got my, the German outfit on the bottom. I can't tell. I actually had the German outfit with a little, I don't even know what you call it. You go above the knees. Them neckerbockers. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Yeah. I had that and the hat that used to be in here. It was one of these deer, that green hat. Yeah. Because you had to dress the part. They were called Yeagers. Not Yeager's, hunters. Is that why that bottle of Yeager Meister's got that deer on it?
Starting point is 00:41:49 Well, maybe. Huh. Care me? We need to name them something else because that stuff right there is terrible. Calf's, sir. Yeah. Tastes just like college. Now, quill.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Unbelievable. Tastes. Yeah. Like, I can taste a cheap sagrant right now. But that was what? That was probably, uh, 73, maybe, maybe 74. That's one that was. That picture.
Starting point is 00:42:17 You had a good look about you. Even back in, the man always smiling. Ain't that something? He's always smiling. I know. Life too short to not to smile. He was good for Trigmarat. You had a smile around when he's running around naked as a kid too, didn't you?
Starting point is 00:42:35 Why not? Hey, it's all about freedom, boys. No restrictions. All right. And then Gretchen emails in, and I don't know where Gretchen's from. She's up from over. She is from over there. Godwin, she's your type of people.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Oh, there you. This is all in their house. And apparently they dress up every piece of taxidermy. Yeah, I like it. That they have. Oh, the Long Ranger. Oh, what is that, a baby duck? That looks like an ostrich.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Really? Look at his head. Not an ostrich, but what's him? Email? Yeah. but he ain't tall enough for that. He ain't grown young. Oh, that's a baby.
Starting point is 00:43:19 I don't know. But Gretchen said she, look, I mean, there's more. I don't know how much taxon. Oh, the jackalo.
Starting point is 00:43:28 That's what I'm talking about. In the belt. I don't know how much taxidermy's in this house and in their car. But these people, are they taxidermis? No, I think they just like,
Starting point is 00:43:38 no, timeout. They got a gumball machine. They got a gumball machine in their front yard. That's what I'm talking about. these are our people you're talking about mailbox money hey that's the ultimate
Starting point is 00:43:50 that's a good idea I'm gonna do that this picture right here is legit a humble brag it is it ain't about the taxidermy it's about the gumball machine in their yard yeah and they live on a lake yeah oh yeah in the rearview mirror
Starting point is 00:44:06 or no is that a white that's a white house no no that's a lake behind a gumball machine that's no that is storage shed it's hard to say. Oh, okay. It is. I'm trying to figure out
Starting point is 00:44:17 where the lake was. I thought it was a lake too, J.D. It looked like a lake. I thought I heard one hit when you said that. Forget that. They got a gunball machine
Starting point is 00:44:25 in their front yard. That better be their front yard. If they got one in their backyard, that's just tacky. You're talking about mail box. Good. None. Oh, no, no.
Starting point is 00:44:33 It's got to be in the front. That's what I'm talking about. Profit Martin. That's what I'm talking about. Also. No, they get towed at all. Yeah, probably right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:44 Gretchen didn't give me where she's from. That's a good call. All right, so what did she say? That's it. Oh, she just wanted you to see all of her dressed up tax. Our daughter would be proud and jealous. And all those animals have names as well. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:44:59 That's the way it rolls. That's the way it rolls. Isaac emails in his girlfriend of one in a half years. Gotcha. Okay. She gone. Uh-oh. Broke up over a month ago.
Starting point is 00:45:13 it was her, not him. They've remained friends to this day, but he's on the struggle bus. So here's what you do. Still wants to be with her. Been praying every day, trying to leave her to the Lord, but he's on the struggle bus.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Look, just go up to her and say, look, I know I'm tired of waiting, get your butt back over here. That's what you're telling. Hey. Mr. Romance has spoken. Y'all been a big proponent
Starting point is 00:45:40 to say this night. I know you've been waiting. I know. You want to see if you could do without me, but I know you can't. I'm tired of way and get up, but get back over here. I'm going to propose the exact opposite. So we're going to leave you with nothing but the decision to make. You got to let her go.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Just and she going to go out there and find out there's nothing better than you. And just like Allison, she's going to come back and say, I was wrong. You were right. And it took about, we broke up for like four months or so. We're both dating other people and figured out, hey, nope, that was the right. one back then. So would you consider yourself a serial day? Well, that's what he's doing now.
Starting point is 00:46:17 No. That's what he's doing now. Who? The dude. What's he doing? He's just sitting around sad. Well, that ain't my fault. I'm just saying you either got a, you got two choices.
Starting point is 00:46:30 That's what they're doing now. They ain't together. Yeah. You got two choices. Move on. And if it's meant to be, it'll come back. Or go fishing. Do what Godwin said.
Starting point is 00:46:39 Go fishing. Just go get her and say, I know, you look. But if it was her idea, he don't want her anyway. Oh, that's another view. I don't know. That's another view. What's your view?
Starting point is 00:46:55 I would go. Go tell her. Go tell her and then tell me how he put a wringer on the finger. We go. That's how you get a restraining. Hey. Why you want the boy to go to jail? Well, how old are they?
Starting point is 00:47:11 Oh, that? Why you want her boy to go there? I didn't say put a chain on her. I said put a ring on her finger. Well, I understand. No, that's a, let's see, that's kidnapping.
Starting point is 00:47:20 We don't went to a whole different, no, I'm just saying, no, don't do that. How old are they? Look, y'all are not having a...
Starting point is 00:47:29 Y'all have not got enough romance in you. Okay. That's why isn't going to go. Besides, telling you to go back, I would have just moved on like he did. Don't let him fool you. I'd just go over and tell her,
Starting point is 00:47:39 look. No, if I was off off of a off shoe cup like he was, You ain't doing nothing. I'm not going to go over and tell her, hey, look. You know, you ain't getting away. We might as well come back. You don't know what you got, girl.
Starting point is 00:47:53 I mean, that's a bold strategy. I think you go to the honey hole, get you a bucket of shiners and a cane pole and go fishing. You go fishing. At least you won't be sad. You may still be alone, but you won't be sad. Well, you ain't want to even be alone. You got the bucket of shiners. There you go.
Starting point is 00:48:10 Or you can do this. Just go up there and say, look, I know you need a little time. So when you get ready to call me, I'll be waiting on. I'll be done at the creek. I wouldn't even give it that. I said, I know you need a little time. You got about five minutes. And then that phone will ring.
Starting point is 00:48:27 Yeah. And you'll go over and about five minutes. You got about five minutes, girl. I got one more that we got to get to today. Goblin. Yeah. My boy, Barry from East Tennessee emailed in. And he needs you specifically to give a shout out.
Starting point is 00:48:41 to his wife, Kim. Kim. I didn't even know they was coming. They're not. Oh. They did. You are her favorite. Unfortunately, Kim's going through some medical stuff.
Starting point is 00:48:53 And so, but she says, and I quote, Godwin is just cool. I guarantee you. Just ask me. I'll take you. I agree. Kim, thank you for the kind words. And I hope whatever medical stuff you're going through, it gets through. We'll be praying for you.
Starting point is 00:49:10 I'll put you in my prayer. at night but you're going to have to give us a comment let you know you're done because or I'll be praying for you forever. Hey, she said that's fine. Hey, there you go, boy. She said that's fine because she needs the prayers and you need to practice. Yeah, that's right. But that's Kim from East Tennessee.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Barry wanted to give her a little special shout out and some prayer. Hey, I'm facing to go to Kentucky Lake. Oh, is that in East Tennessee? I bet that's in Kentucky. Tennessee and Kentucky ain't it? I think it's in West. It's in West Tennessee. West Tennessee.
Starting point is 00:49:43 Kentucky Lakes in Tennessee. Yeah. Oh, and I had another one. You had another one? Not a question or anything, but young man diagnosed up at the deal that I was just at in Chilli-Cothe. Diagnosed he's young. I diagnosed with a very aggressive cancer.
Starting point is 00:50:02 His name's Patrick Hand. So listeners, if you made it this far, Patrick Hand could use some prayers as he takes on this next battle. in his life. So, yeah, I think he's like early 20s. And so I didn't get the type of cancer. I didn't ask. I just said we'll be praying.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Cancer touches close to home. Yeah. So y'all lift up Patrick and his family as they go through their fight as well. So one of the things we get to do when we go out on the road is, is lift up these folks and encourage them. And it's a fun thing to do. And then we bring them back to you guys to do the same. So, yeah, there you go.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Ready? Bible verse out. Isaiah 535, but he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. That's a tough word. The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds, we are healed. This world's tough, but one day we're going to all be healed and all be together in heaven. And even if we're just giving you shoutouts on a podcast, we'll meet you one day.
Starting point is 00:51:04 Yeah. Amen. And it'll be cooler than a clips. We get heaven and he gets us. That's a pretty good deal. Oh, yeah. It's a way way better trade for us. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:17 All right. We'll see y'all next time right here in that call room. We're out.
