Duck Call Room - Uncle Si Thinks Justin Martin’s Parenting Style Is SO Weird

Episode Date: June 22, 2023

Martin shocks the room with a video of a highly unusual “educational moment” with one of his sons. Uncle Si gives the boys a few lessons about swamp critters, but John-David comes back with a marine creature that Si can’t believe exists! Godwin isn’t on good terms with Siri right now and thinks she needs an attitude adjustment. Martin fondly remembers his time fishing with freediving spear fishermen, though he was too scared to get in the water himself. Si heard about a new way to order steak and a restaurant and he can’t wait to try it out! - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Everything's running. Everything's good. Everything's good. Well, in that case, welcome back to the call room. Welcome back. I'll tell you what. I wish more people could sit in this chair because one of my favorite things to do as soon as we get in here is look under the table and see what socks size. Oh, oh, no.

I got a good thing to tell. They match. They match. My red-headed woman went to Dallas last weekend to see the. river dance people. Mm-hmm. And then she'd come in laughing, and I said, okay, what happened? And she said, well, I found these socks for you.

And those are they? Actually, that's one pair of them. She bought me about six pair of them. You have river dancing socks? No, but I got a beaver socks. Beaver, do they make you want to dink? No, they make me want to chew wood down and build a dam. Socks do that?

I don't happen. I actually got a beaver on it. You do, really? I'm not a unique little animal. Oh, boy. Oh, you. Buckle up. Hey, he's destroyed more timber.

He's a noise. Lumber guy. Slaping that tail. Hey. But as he does. You know that? Here's my question for beavers. Yeah.

Because we hate them for the most part. Oh, Phil. Phil, hey, he's been fighting. But we're trying to do what they're trying to do. They just don't know that we're after the same goal. We want the same thing. We want the same thing they want. Oh, water.

Yeah. Hum and are going. If it's moving. they're going to stop it. Yeah. However, you just said they've destroyed more timber than the timber comes to. Yeah.

But did they destroy timber or did they create habitat? They did both. They did both because water, if it's left on too long, it's killed timber. Mm-hmm. Okay. So, but here, one of the coolest videos I ever saw. Okay. Okay.

The first thing, okay, is a guy has got a long-range camera. you know one of them that's got a limb like that about eight foot long and you see something way down in the woods moving and you can't identify and there's a little trickle water about oh eight inches wide and maybe an inch or two deep

going down through the woods well it finally comes into focus and it's two beavers and they're walking in the little bitty water where it's shell them start. And this film is an hour long.

At the end of it, it's showing about 50 beavers. Okay, and it looks like a construction site with dump trucks, front end loaders, and everything like that. Because here they come.

One has got a big tree in his mouth. You'll swim in, barely can't keep it above water. And he comes up to where they started and jams it in. Just, you know, keep pushing it in. the mud. So that's your skitter. Yeah, he's bringing the wood in.

Then here comes, hey, then here comes the dirt man, the dump truck. Here comes ten with just a big wad of dirt on that tail. And all they do is they just come back and turn and pow. You know, and here comes another one bringing a stick in and sticking it in. Another beer, pow! Look, at the end of this, okay, there is a probably a mile. and a half down, like 10 foot tall. And okay, it ain't no telling how why.

And then that's the greatest big, beautiful lake behind it. And you know, on the timber, the cypress trees, the ducks coming in, geese coming in, deer coming down to drink, big bucks. You know, so that, you're talking about some habitat. Yeah. They have created some unique habitat. They get a bad rap because most of the time they're interfering. They're talking about how destructive.

Well, they're interfering what we want to do. Yeah. That's why they get such a bad rap. But if they were left alone, they'd create some pretty cool ponds. Yeah, but they do destroy because, hey, in Alabama in the 20th, they called it the big, great Alabama battle. Okay, and it wasn't humans, okay? It was humans against beavers. They was trying to build a mall, okay?

And every weekend when they'd knock off, they'd come back and everything would be flooded. So, hey, they finally had to hire trappers, okay, come in to trap them and get them all out. Well, you just said they went from two to 50 in a year. I know, that's pretty quick. But they are a rodent, so it fits, you know, like people talk about rats and, you know, all the local terms.

They're engineers. Oh, they're incredible. Okay, because, hey, they're going to put the down. down at the possible lowest point on the property. Yeah, didn't even need GPA. And I don't need the transit what they're shooting it with. Yeah, yeah. They don't need it.

It's built into their head. They know, yep, this is the lowest point. Let's put it here, boys. And that all started at an amoeba coming out of the ocean. You believe that? No, that's not. No, no. Now, that dog won't hunt.

That's creation. At its finest, okay. I just like getting fired up on. No, no. Look, that's why I said he's a unique little animal. He is. Okay, here's the thing. They build it so it actually leaks enough, okay, that the water stays at the same level.

So their outflow equals their inflow. Yeah. Yeah. How about that? They got a spill away. Oh, no, because, yeah, I've watched it. Yeah. Phil, Phil's fought them like for 50 years.

and here's the most amazing part. I went with him one day. Okay, and this is at daylight. Because for your top, we go out there and Phil takes about an hour and a half, two hours, okay, and he digs

like six foot down with a rake I welded together for him, four prone, pulling mud, limbs. He makes a six foot hole and about eight foot wide. break in the dam yeah I mean

this was two hours work hard work yeah six foot deep eight foot wide running cotton mouse everywhere yeah running cotton mouse killing one of them if you got a gun y'all could always take a gun but anyway because Phil has always said the beavers and cotton mouse

are in cahoots okay the beavers built it the cotton ounce carted that's what it seemed like no that's what it seemed like because every time you go on a leave down you're going to walk you're going to say he'll rake him right him out around his ankle we went back the next morning and i'm standing there just in awe because it looks like he's never touched it yeah right back it's back and then do it again yeah so we do it again and look he's done that

he's literally you know his rake has gotten bigger now though oh yeah now his rake is on a hydraulic on yeah it's it and you drive it up got a motor on it yeah it's got a motor on it yeah it's got a motor and you drive it up for a track hole and just go and knock it out. But he's done it for 50 years, you know, by hand. Good, great. He literally moved tons of brush, mud, and leaves. And they'd build it back overnight. And I said, how many think there's done this?

Y'all, bunch? He said, no, probably two. They're trying to get to fifth? I said, what? Two beavers did this? You got to be kidding me. Phil got some out of them. he made socks out of them.

Hey, I'm telling you. Put him in his waiters. But hey, that's the only what, uh, uh, waterproof. Creature. Yeah. Yeah. Beaver's pelt is waterproof. I'm just,

I've just been studying this whole time. On the beaver. On the, on the, did you know there's a beaver dam in Canada you can see from space? Really? Yeah. I wouldn't doubt it. They showed a picture of it?

Yeah. Look. It's all that whole thing. Wow. It ain't no telling them how. Wide that is. 775 meters and length. I'm American, so I would have to plug in.

Wow. Can you imagine how deep them runs are around there if you were just... Oh, no. They'd go over my head anyway. Good grief. Yeah, it's in Canada. That's amazing. The world's largest beaver dam.

Good, good. It's twice the width of the Hoover Dam. That's tight. Hey, that's wild because Hoover Dam is... giant. Think about that. Just a little furry animals doing this. Ways about anywhere between 40 and 75 pounds.

That's like two miles long. That's big. Two miles long. They've been working on that for a while. More than a year. Hey, they just keep working on it too. Oh, that's half a mile. The meters are tricky.

Hey, they'd be like the saber-toothed tiger. I went the opposite. Didn't draw stuff down. Sabretooth tiger What do they do? A beaver would be just like the saber tooth tiger If they wouldn't always chewing Chewing trees down

Now he's right there Their teeth always grow Yeah their incisors Yeah, their incisors grow That's why sometimes they just know Are we sure about the saber tooth tiger On that part of the equation? I don't know

Because those seem to be in the spot of the canine So I'm not really sure But Look, hey Well there's a lot of things Got them big dust In big what uh What's the name of?

Walrus Elephant? Norwalk. The walrus. The walrus. The walrus. Coochoochoo. Hey, hey, they're like that.

Ain't so much the wallers. I like a narwhal. What? A narwhal. What is that? You don't know what a narwhal is? I do, but. It's like the unicorn of the ocean.

Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. You have to pull up a picture on it. It looks like a walrus, but it's just got one. No, it's like a whale with a horn on it. Oh, yeah, yeah. That's what it is.

This is a fish. was something like that. Oh, it's a mammal. Oh. It's like the, you know, what we got in our creeks and bowels? The big, the big thing. We ain't got nothing like that. Yeah, we do.

We got one except the horn. What's them, manateaus? Manatee. It's like a manatee with a horn on it. That's a good. It's like a manatee prepared for battle. Yeah. Like a fighting manate.

I wonder if they sword fight each other. Oh, yeah, there's one right there. Ha. We need to learn more about it. Hey, a unicorn. A unicorn fish. What's the horn for? Stabbing folks.

Stab his thing. Don't go in the water with this. Maybe that's how he catches fish. Maybe he can't see you, and that's kind of his feeler. Yeah. Well, hey, that could be a sensitive. And maybe it's for. Now I'm going to read all about narwhals.

Well, good. Why you read about narwhal? Oh, I know what it was. He just had it and it was in ice. It's a bust hole in ice. Oh, okay. There you go. Seems as logical as that thing.

People don't know. fine. They don't know why they have one. He's an ice-busters. That's a quick read. So, okay, we're going to go. Let's take a break. We're going to go.

We're taking a break already. All right. All right. All right. Look, springtime is here. It's warming up. You know what that means? That means more outside cooking.

And y'all know. We love to eat beef around here. And that's what, because of our friends over at Tritels Beef, makes such a good product, baby. Ain't it good? It's so good. It's our friend, Cyre Robertson, would say, bye on the grill!

Look, before we got Tritels, getting ready for a cookout, man, somebody had to run the grocery store, do all the things, grab whatever was left in case you were late in the day. And you never really know where that beef comes from. But with Tritales 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'll 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 either, folks. Yeah. Just go to trybeef.com slash. That's trybeef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. Gobin, what do you call a horse that lives down the street? Oh, don't tell me.

Wait a minute. What do you call a horse that lives down the street? Yeah. Go ahead. A neighbor. A neighbor. A neighbor. A neighbor.

I got it. There you go. Good work, did you pass calculus? I did. I figured that. Well, you. You can differentiate between your twins in, can't you? Somewhat, yeah.

What? Generally, just by smells alone. What's that got to do with calculus? I don't know. A square plus B squared, it goes C squared, I don't know. I thought that was. That's geometry. That's the Pythagorean theorem.

I don't think I could go back to school. I've decided that. I don't want to. I didn't like when I was there. You didn't like school? No. He wasn't necessarily what you would call. School was just a.

Interruption. Studious. Interruption. Yeah, the teacher was always waking me up saying, what are you doing? I said, well, I was slipping up on a big 12-point buck. The problem is, people scare him off. The problem is you hear people say that, and they get, all of a sudden, people think they're dumb. Just because they don't like school.

No, Mike Roe has proven that wrong. Cy pretty sharp. Who's Mike Roe? Yeah, micro. Dirty job. Oh, that's the dirty job guy. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I know who you.

I just don't know the only dirty guy, I know. dirty is Joe dirt. No, this day he does dirty jobs. Also sharp than he works. Oh, okay. You never watch dirty jobs with Micro? No. He goes around and just finds people that do like really dirty jobs.

Well, hey, he'll have found me if he'd look one time. What were you doing? Roofing industrial buildings. That's not dirty jobs. Oh, it is a dirty job. It's just a hot job. That's a hot. And it's dirty.

That's what they did on Shawshank. Right, with the mops and the tar. Oh, no. y'all used to roof and dust. Yeah, and I had to finally, they switched jobs on me. Were you in jail? The tar pit. Did you ever get to sit in the shade with an ice cold bucket of beer?

No, I didn't. Because Andy got you. No. If it brought a bucket of beer, that'd been a good job, yeah. Yeah. Cold beer. You just needed it. Back in them days.

Back in them days, that would have been the job. Oh, my goodness. The latest episode of Dirty Jobs is Beaver Relocator. And I did not plan that. Really? Is that wild or is that, hey, beaver relocation, slime master. That's crazy. What's the title?

Slym. How do you relocate a beaver? Every trap I've seen kills. A beaver's not a slime? That's a different job. There's two jobs on the episode. One is a beaver relocated. The other one is slime master.

That sounds like a dirty job. Oh, okay. If you've ever messed around with trapping beavers, that's pretty dirty one too. Well, that's muddy. That scent that they use, though, to trap them, that beaver musk that they make women's perfume out of? Yeah.

It don't smell like that from the source. Do you know that they it's skunk extract is what they made perfume out of? Yeah, beaver musk. Check it.

Google it, though. Please don't hit me. I'm looking. Google it. Hey. I'm looking. Hey. They use that beaver musk.

That's what I was told. That's what I was told that in New York. That beaver sits as castor or something like it. Yeah. That's what it's called. Scott. From the castor side. I'm hunted down there to castor.

They actually take extract from a skunk scent. And then turn it into women's perfume. My sister used to catch them skunk. And she'd pull that tail back and get some pliers and pull that thing out where they couldn't spray. Well, if you hold it down, they can't spray. If you hold their tail down. Oh, she's 100%. I can get it.

get you a bottle on Etsy right now. Skunk perfume, $30. Hey. You thought I was putting your leg. Yeah, but that, it's on Etsy. So that sounds like somebody from West Virginia is doing something out of their garage. Oh, that's where perfume, women's perfume comes from. John D.

I think they make different stuff in their garages up there. Yeah. I don't know about that. Do they make perfect? Hey, that's one job I will not, no, I'm not going to, I'm not going to, I'm not going to hold a skunk. stale down and I'm not going to try to extract his uh his anal glands skin yeah yeah his spire gland yeah his what yeah you're going to take what's he done boy we i ain't done it my you're right they do that oh yeah 100% this made out of beaver musk gunk musk like that

i can buy you got to think about that that's not very attractive things that are foul that are foul they take it and turn it into perfume reverse the process It's got to be something else. They just call it that. I can buy you one ounce of Foggy Mountain Pure Skunk Essence for $25 right now. No, thank you. Hey, you get there from Tennessee, too. I've been sprayed by them.

I don't want to buy them. I remember that. You did get sprayed. He got dope. That was the second time. I'm just glad he was wide enough to be the shield. Yeah, you go there too. Because all I got was the smell.

Yeah. Phil, Phil done that when he was running the trap then. Oh, he stomped it to be. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Bad move. Yeah. You don't ever want to, if one of them deal, frat the chair up, you don't want to stomp it.

Yeah. Donnie go up here to that door and shoot one. Oh, no, no. Yeah. Yeah. You don't need to get close. This is long range deal here, boys. I saw one, one-time skunk experience, walking to the deer stay or walking out from deer staying.

It just gotten dark, but you still kind of halfway see, you know, walking down that road. I'm like, what is that in the road? Of course, I'm just getting closer to it. Yeah. Moving back and forth, and I can't really tell what it is. And I get from about me to Johnny Dee from it. And me and it realized what it was at about the same time. And it put that tail up.

Yeah. Buddy, I ain't ever retreated so fast in all my day. I was long stepping backwards with my bow in my hand. Well, no. Phil, not me. I was falling and he grabbed me as we're both running. And just towed you? Oh, no.

Yeah. and this one was rabid okay because he was coming he wasn't worried about spraying oh he's gonna get you he was fixed the bite the reviews he was bad news

why does something rabid want to bite you because he wants to share he's in pain he wants to check bet by a rabbit something we were going squirrel hunting before daylight

walking towards woods and Phil knocked me back and just I'll fix to go down and probably just got to eat eight up he just kind of caught the side of my arm and hey away we went couldn't you see that story sighed in a rabid coon that'd be like story number 114 or something yeah hey that was rough i'm telling you i'm reading the reviews for just pure skunk essence and people are saying it's just absolutely awful and therefore yeah oh it is so now they're giving it five stars because that's

what they wanted which is weird enough in themselves but but somebody reviewed it and gave it one star and said, I bought this to keep my neighbor and his dog out of my yard. That's what I'm telling you. That's making your yard stink, sir. Well, hey, it seems like a lose-lose. So did it not work? He said it, this is it like LaCroy made skunk water. Well, hey, he must be like Phil.

He doesn't mind bad boulder smell. Well, yeah, because he's rubbing it on over all his own stuff and then the thing and it's going to keep other people away. Well, if it keeps the dog away, if he don't want a dog in his yard, Hey, go for it. But he specifically said a human being. Oh. He said his neighbor and a lot.

Why would you want to buy that? Hey, I know they can't buy anything. Because you're a stinker. I think, yeah. You will if you buy it. That's right. Hey. I think I'm going to put a brown bag on there and see if that somebody will buy.

This stuff reeks. Galvin. Yeah. I like it. I want Godwin to ask Siri where he can buy skunk essence. that would be interesting and just see what happened see what they come up with

probably don't she'll say I'm working on it do you use Siri it'll take her less than a minute to tell you where you can get it my phone I just said called Paula Godwin and she said I don't know who that is as a matter of fact

I don't know who you are if you'll do something with your contacts that would help me out what's that got to do with your eyes That's what she said. My eyes. Your contacts. I know it.

I don't know. I couldn't figure it out. I don't think she could figure it out. It was a question she did not know. I tried to use a cell phone and when I hit it, turn it on, it cuts me out. Cust him out. Story 92. Siri mad that day.

I was in a bad mood. Her attitude needs to be changed. I think somebody in a one day. And she said some things are just not knowing. What you say? head. I turned it off. I don't even want to accidentally let her talk to me. I could agree. She can't understand me.

I can't understand her all the time. Do you? Yeah, to set alarms and timers and stuff like that works. Watch it. It ain't hard. Look. You got a regular voice then. A lot of time she says, I'm working on it. Oh, he fixed it. I'm also late. Set a timer for five minutes. Boom. Five minute timer. Five minute timer.

I do it. I use it a lot with cooking. I mean, I use Alexa for that. She's beside the stove. Who's better, Alexa or Siri? I think Alexa is more attractive. Really? I mean, I've never met a Siri, but... You've met an Alexa? Or an Alexis.

I don't know. Alex. That got weird. I have no idea what I'm talking about. You'd rather have an Amazon than an Apple. Oh, for sure. Oh, I like it. Joe Hanna's phone talks like a British man.

You can change it. She got tired of talking to a woman. I guess so. I guess so. I guess so. So it is. English from the United Kingdom, English from South Africa,

English from Singapore. Wait, right there, what? Singapore, is there a different? Oh, heck yeah, I just turned my Siri into, well,

I turned it on, now she's Irish. Well, fantastic. Let's turn on the next break. We'll be back right after this. All right, then I got a question. I'm Siri.

Hi, I'm Siri. Hi, I'm Siri. Hi, I'm Siri. All right, some of you live. I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. There's no way that Ciri, choose the voice you'd like me to use

That ain't Irish No I don't know how this works Are those samples of the voices I thought it was I couldn't tell the difference really I got a question What's that?

What? Do you know of any special train tours Train Train? A train you know There's one in Canada Who Like the Polar Express

There's one in Denver I mean, not Denver, but Durango goes up to Silverton. Durango what? Colorado. What are you trying to go on a train tour for? He wants to ride a train. No, I just, that's what I watched on PBS. They have got.

They didn't tell you where it was? Yeah, no, no, they've got them all over the world. Yeah. Okay, the most beautiful one was is in West Virginia. West Virginia. West Virginia. It runs through. Out of all the places in the world.

No, no. Well, to me, it was beautiful. Because it runs along, okay, and I think it's the Shenandoah River. Rivie? River? Shenandoah. The Riviera. Okay.

Through the Shenandoah Valley. Okay, but it was, it's dropped. Blue Ridge Mountains. And it goes real slow, and it gets at a special place and stops where you enjoy the view and everything. Take me home. I'm not saying, then the country roads. They've got the Branson, Missouri tour. Okay.

Okay. You have really narrowed this down to like our part of the world. Well, no, no. And then more specifically our band-bush. Okay. You go south for the desert and the south look. Okay. In Santa Tone, they got one.

You know, the old south look. They have one on the Silver Street. No, but they do have one that is painted like a dragon, fire-breathing dragon. Okay. Did they like bring up? I don't remember where that run. May I run through the southwest, southwest.

Did they bring up like Switzerland? No? That's the one I want to go to. Yeah. I didn't, I didn't watch it all. Okay. Good cheese.

I took that train one time up to the Matterhorn. No, you did. Because I wasn't walking. Yeah, I was like 19. Did you? horn at Switzerland? Switzerland? No.

You've been to the mountain in Switzerland? Mm-hmm. I mean, I looked at it from the bottom. Do you hear anybody yelling up there? Oh, yeah. No. That was like a long time. What is the...

But I really thought I had a chance when you were like, the most beautiful train in the whole wide world. I was like, ooh, say the only one I've been on. Say the only... And you're like, oh, West Virginia. And then you literally saying country road, take me home. It was a beautiful scenery shot. That's west of Virginia.

That's true. But I didn't know that they had that many, okay, like tours that you can take on, you know, locomotive. Are you about to become like in your, you know, you're going to go to your retired life? Are you about to become like a train, aficionado? Well, no, no, but hey, I'm going to say it. I would have liked when I was going there.

That would be pretty cool. I have no doubt that that's beautiful. Especially when the leaves are changing. There's eight of them. Oh, no. And the bridge is famous because, hey, look, it happened back in the 20s, I think. A big storm came, huge rain. It actually blew it out.

Siri got us. You set my timer. Yeah. It actually blew that bridge down. That's hilarious. But West Virginia built it back because of the beauty of the place. Yeah. That bridge was actually destroyed by a flood.

Hey, that's the silver streak. Oh, yes, they call him the street. Bugety, boogety. That's right. He's right through the pole bead, boys. Oh, look, I don't know. New late. You got a free shot.

Take me. That is beautiful-looking scenery. It's a nice place. I just would think that you would choose somewhere where you couldn't, like, drive to it. Well, they say the only way you get through there. Like Switzerland or... Is boat, walk, or train.

That's it. Huh. Ain't no car. You either go by boat, you either walk in, or you ride the train. Could you technically take a truck down the train tracks? I wonder if Big Jim had to hire out of tires, about halfway. Yeah, yeah, we used to. You ain't even got a whole long steering wheel.

Yeah, we do that in high school. What were you saying, Martin? I said, I just wonder if Big Jim owns part of that, the governor. Jim Justice, the guy that paid for us to come in that golf tournament all them time. Big Justice, boys. I don't know. He owns the Greenbrier and all that. that stuff up there.

He owns a couple things if he owns that. Yeah. The whole thing about this is, okay, is on them trains. They're real, real low. They had to redo them and rebuild them, you know, put them back in. And some of them are, some of them, one of them had a barbershop. We should do a duck call room from the West Virginia train. Oh, I'm in.

Hey. That's what I'm talking. Is that in the budget? Look, I'm actually thinking about going and taking the tour through West Virginia. Well, there you have it. Are you going to listen to Country Road take me home the whole time? That seems like a little spot on. I don't know, but they did have a band on it too.

There was a band on the train? On the train. Yeah. Play a music to go on that because you would totally take it. And Joe, Fiddle, you know. Banjo. It was actually big, and. They show any of the food.

And they, I, yep, I just forget that. And they got two big dining cars. Okay, for you to enjoy a meal. Sugar-free? I wonder how big the rooms are. Medium plus stakes. Probably small since it's a train. The dining room was excellent.

Okay. Then they got like the double decker that you sit up high where you can see everything. Yeah. And it's got like windows over the top and side. Yeah. Where you can see everywhere. I took the train from New Orleans to Jackson one time. You took a train from where?

New Orleans to Jackson, Mississippi. I didn't have a car. Okay. So I had to get close. Oh, is that. You enjoy it? It's all right. I like a train ride.

Yeah. I wish we had like trains. If the interstate of America all had a train right beside them, I'd be training all over the place. Well, I think, say, because Germany. The Yermans got good trains. You know, you're talking about, you know, run on time. You don't want to be two minutes late. You don't want to be 30 seconds late because, hey, when it's time to pull out, their babies are gone.

That's true. Oh, no. They're on time. That is true. What he said is very factual. Very factual. They'll leave you. Yeah.

I wonder how they do that. I think it's got like a stop. They make all the rules. Or they keep all the rules. Maybe they keep all the rules. They're rulekeepers. That's what that makes. Yeah.

That's making them rulekeepers, boys. Unbelievable. Because they always are on time. They were always on perfect time for like Jason Bourne. That's what that is. He was always able to get on the next train or use it as a shield. Yeah, you got to. Notice they didn't do any of that in America.

You can depend on it. Well, good. We glanced over that your wife attended Riverdance. Oh, I clicked the wrong. Did she give you any details about the performance? Well, her and Leah said they really enjoyed it. Yeah. So it was actually a really fantastic show.

If it had something to do with the river, why ain't they swimming? you know i never thought about that well hey look you ask questions oh or rowing they're just dancing or catching fish river dance river dance now that'd be good walking on water well only one person's done that what is a riverdain what is a riverdance two people have done that boy did i almost oh yeah that's a great question boy did i almost just get comment section blasted. Boy, I'm glad I saved that. Oh, you're still going to from the ones that just heard that

and hit pause real quick so they can talk to comment. Nope, nope, that was two. There was two. What did you think he was thinking? Well, we kind of know that he got freaked out. Would you have done it? You look out, you think there's a ghost. Then you're like, oh, no, that's Jesus.

And he's like, come on. Well, hey, I may not have been trying to walk on water, but I may have tried to run on it. Yeah. because I know how to swim. I don't think it would spook me. Well, it was in the middle of like a torrential downpour, wasn't it? Yeah, I'd have probably got flat.

But Gobwin floats, though, so. Oh, he does float. At any moment, he's fine to fall in. Yeah. If the water's got just a touch of salt in it, Godwin coming to the top. Did you take that class as a baby or something? I don't know.

I don't think they had an ASR whenever Gobble was in. I don't remember. Why do some people do that? Why do some people Like, because hey, if I just Relax. If I just relax. I don't know. Guess I'm full of hot air. Right.

Well, if I just relax, I start going toward the bottom. Really? That ain't my fault. My feet will start turning down. Oh, yeah, I sink. I'm a sinker. Yeah, I'm a sinker. I do too. I'm not a floater. I have to try to stay a float.

No, I've tried it. You know, trying to float. And I start out with my feet up here and just say, as soon as I relax, feet go down and then I go under water. Yeah. And then I come back up and turn it, nope, I ain't a floater. Yeah, I'm not a floater. Some people just

they relax and hey, they just stay on top. I can do it. The goblin's like a buoy. Yeah. Like you get in a bind and you having to swim, just go grab on the goblin. You stay there for a minute. That's wild. Yeah, you'll be safe. Wildest thing I ever seen. I know one thing when they said

salt water, that's why they had to, well, if they're going to go very deep, you've got to have some weight. Oh yeah Salt water is just something about it Keeps you up Gobwin had like 12 pounds of lead on him Whenever we went down there to Bahamas

And he went snorkeling Because he couldn't go down No no No no Gavon was stuck to the top It's the only kind I've ever seen a big man Be at a disadvantage

On getting to the bottom of something They put them weights on me I said Something to get in water here Yeah They said Oh you'll be fine I said yeah

Uh huh Take him off We're going down Trying to get them lobsters Yeah Did you get them? Went down 30 feet, yeah, as far as I was going. That's it.

You went to 30 feet with a snorkel? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Good grief. I protected the boat in the room. They went 100 feet. Swat. They went so far down, you could watch them.

But they'd chew a fish, it would be green. How long were they down there? They'd down there while. So they were scuba diving, not a snorkeling. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. They're free divers. No tank. Free dives.

That's why I said. They had snorkeling. They was going down 100 feet. They stay down three and a half minutes. They got the timer sitting. I would die. Yeah, they were shooting big old grouper and stuff. Yeah.

And I asked them to take my hook down there and put it from one of them. Yeah. The ultimate lives go. Yeah. To which they replied, look, they're always biting metal when they just shot another one. It was wild. Yeah. Yeah, they got like, what's that called?

It changes colors. Like glitter. something on their inside of the glove they go to them fish and they go. Yeah, they go fishing. Like they use their bodies. Oh, they make them come to them? They make them come to them.

Yeah, they sit down there and make them come to them. Oh, they sit on the... This is the wildest crap I've ever. Oh, buddy. You ought to see them when they go out there to them rigs and shoot like Wahoo and stuff. They put like big flashers on themselves. Why would you do?

So that they look like a cricket and then the Wahoo come up there to try to eat the cricket and all he gets is shot right. of gills. But what if, what if they attract the wrong fish? Like a Mako shark that they got footage of?

Yeah, they did. Yeah, they hit him in the nose with their, their stuff. Yeah, they said, don't run from them. Yeah, they said, don't run because he'll catch you.

Oh, oh, well, you're going to be able to, stand there. Any fish catch a human? Well, you would think.

Oh, yeah. They're the ones that, that ain't, no thing. This ain't going to be a race. They're the ones that chewed me out for not getting to them

fast enough when they were saying they need help. And I thought I was going crash their boat just because I ain't ever been in water that clear. I know. So I'm thinking it's like six foot deep and I don't want to tear off the man's, you know, twin three hundreds back there on each corner of the boat. Yeah.

He said, that's my boat. If I'm telling you to come, it's safe. It was 80 feet. Yeah, they were, they were, they were kicking sharks off of them and everything else. They done got a feeding frenzy going on down there. They shot one or two many fish. Got them all fired. They was nipping at their flippers.

Yeah. stay out of the ocean which again is why I protected the boat and the cooler and the snacks oh no that's the first thing I learned on when I went out in the ocean hey and I don't want to be in the water I also learn that you don't

hey that's like ringing the dinner bell you also don't grab a grouper in the gills without a oh no no no no no hey that's he got teeth up in there no no no and then you will be stuck to see a grouper like it's because they go in and it's like that Chinese trap I don't know

what that was we caught but he looked like a vampire when he opened his mouth it's just two big fangs sticking down they got them on like the inside of the gill place yeah i thought i was safe like i know not to lip him i went up under here no and the next thing i'm like velcroed to this group yeah how do i get out of it yeah i just had to go through there with a canife and i just started popping teeth out of my hand oh that's wild man whoa the things you don't know yeah yeah you don't to grab nothing out of the ocean no no no you just want to feel like everything there i saw everything i saw they brought on board has got big sharp teeth i know first three fish i wonder why that is i didn't catch i didn't catch i guess because they taste so good everything trying to eat you hey

the first three times i went i never landed a whole fish Everybody else was catching them And I'd bring it in I said oh broke the line And I read it in and said nope He said oh you had about 10 pounds Snapper there He said but you got to read them in faster

He said shark guy I said yeah okay So I said I stick to the Everybody else has got a big pretty good picture With some kind of fish I'm sitting there holding a head Yeah you got to pour the cold to them now Yeah

Good, Chris. You got to get them off the bottom. Oh, yeah. If not, they is good as well. Oh, yeah. But that was fun, though. It was fun. I enjoyed watching them people shoot them fish.

They just kept trying to get me to do it. Well, they actually paint, put some glitter on their hands, and do this and attract fish. They'll do that, and they'll have flashers like little, look like a smearly or something. Yeah, a little like a spoon that you fish with. And they'll have it, like, tied to them trying to attract the fish. They go swimming, and then they turn around and look behind them. Make sure the fish is there. get him telling and a turn around shooting.

I'm not saying they're necessarily mentally there. Nope. You know? That's like people jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. I don't get it. It's like when people going on there sticking their hand in a catfish hole, I don't understand.

No, that's saying. I ain't doing that, neither. I just, I, it is really fun on a riding real. I don't understand. Oh, no, no, no, like you said. Yeah, I'm not going, you know, I can't even think of, Okay, I'm under water, and then I'm going to go to the bank and a big hole black hole, and I'm going to go. And then hope something bites me.

Yeah, and so hope something grabbed me. Yeah. Now, that ain't my idea of a good time. That'd be the last time you do it. Because buddy mine told me, he said, yeah, I got a track. When he come back, I said, well, do you like it? He said, yeah, it was a lot of fun. He said, until I stuck my arm in there and we got another glove on.

and he said, and something jumped bit down on me, and he said, I tried to pull him out, and he comes out of the hole, and we're heading for deep water. And he said, and I'm doing, I'm just along for the ride. Like flipper. Yeah, no, no. And he said,

the only thing that saved me, he said, if I hadn't had that glove on, because he said, my, I kept yanking it till it finally come out. He said, or he had it took me to the bottom and drowned me. And I said, yeah. I said, that's exactly why you'll never see me doing it.

Amen. Well, look, it's been fun, but we've got to get in them emails. Let's take a break. We'll be back right after this. All right. Got one. He body slammed her. Did he do it?

He did it. He finally bodyslam playful. He didn't body slam her. He attempted to body slam him. He went half caught. Exactly what happened. You wanted to play. I'm telling you.

Anyway, hey, here's a good along, don't you? Here's the good news. What's the good point? He got a date out of it. Oh, they're talking about. There you go. So you're right. Body slammer.

I ain't talking about trying to hurt them. I'm just talking about she wanted to play. You got to play. A king snake? Uh-uh. No, hold off. Look at the color on that. I want to know.

I want to know what you think about what I did this morning. He saw a garden snake. Gardner snake. Yeah, garter snake. Where are you going to this? He must do. I just want you know, you put this on Instagram and I already moved out. I exited out.

Oh, no, it's fine. Watch. Don't touch that thing on your children. Watch. What's about to have that? Wait for it. What's about... Oh, no!

Look at Jackson. Jackson loves him. Look at him. You people are nuts. I can't believe you... I ought to whip both of you and Brittany. Are doing that. Oh.

Why? Yeah. Jackson said I'll catch him That gives me the Run him this way daddy Yeah so look every morning You go catch him No

But I said every morning Look at it Look at it he grabbed He wants to play with it Oh he did He grabbed that rascal By the midsection Wait where's whalen

He's in the house I like him the most Yeah he's staying He was in his chair He said he was in his chair I just told I took Jackson So every morning

I take one of the boys I alternate mornings To water our cucumbers I just take them just why not And this morning when I got there To the cucumbers I looked And I guess he'd been laid there Eating earthworms or something all night

I mean because he was big fat and happy And just like basically looked like he was asleep Don't bother me Yeah like I'm cool man And so when I saw him I called Brittany I said Hey I need you come out here real quick There's a snake I want to introduce Jackson to him

She said do what I said it's fine It's a garter snake Ain't nothing ain't nothing wrong it's fine i said but he's too big for me to grab on my own with jackson because he's he big enough he bit me like he big enough his mouth bit my finger oh i'd have died so i knew he would bite jackson and i could just see hey you're gone oh man but i could just see it being a terrifying moment instead of an educational moment like it was right here and so she

come out there and then look now this just what i video but after that i put him back up there Jackson Crafty right in the mid-section. I was like, okay, buddy, we got to let go. Got to let go. Nice snake. I just want you to look closely at your dog. He's judging you. Oh, no, Jude wants to play with it.

Jude thinks it's got a squeaker in. Look at them eyes. Those are judgment eyes. Yeah, she said you let that thing down here and I'm about to have some fun. Oh, yeah. So I put him back up under the cucumber pots with that way she couldn't get to him either. Oh, yeah. Smash it.

Every day. They good. They good. I love them. I need to get some of the maters. Like salt and black pepper. Well, about this week, probably end of this week, I'll be able to bring you some.

Because right now I'm eating them as fast they grow. Oh, no. They're going to catch me this week. I got a bunch of them this week. I ain't got but six plants, but man, they are putting out showstoppers. They're good. But anyway, I just figured,

I would appreciate that first in a moment. Yeah, if he had bit me, I'd have died right there, my heart attack. It didn't hurt. What killed him, little old garden snake? Well, he ain't. He saw him bite him and I did it. His heart gave out.

I figured that was a parenting win on my part. No. You know, it's hard to say. Well, you introduce them young. Now, look, I don't want them to play with snakes. But I also don't want them to take off running at the side of them. I want them to appreciate what the, what they're here. It's funny as my wife has taught all of our kids to take off running at the site of any snake.

Any kind of. And tell me so I can go beat it with a shovel. Well, so Carter grow up, get married, have a family of his own. there's a snake at the porch. What, we're going to all take off running or somebody going to get rid of him? Same thing I would do. What? Get the high ground and get a shovel.

But no, he's been learned to take off running. Yeah, you get no shovel if you run it. You run first, get the shovel, and then get the high ground. Oh, my gosh. You're running to get the shovel. Yeah. Well, so far, we're two for two. Jackson like snakes and turtles.

So I'm big fan. Look, we got a tree full of catapa worms at my mom's house. we're going to go play with them too. Because you know what the top of worms come in turning. Oh, what are you talking about? Catfish. Catfish.

Big fish. Yeah. So I'm just introduced some. How long as catfish? They're a little too rough for earthworms. They kind of ripped them in half. So they have played with worms. So the problem is they're just that they eight months.

So the first thing they do is go to their mouth. I'm like, hey, stop. Yeah. It took feeling them when we was young quite a while to get, me to help them pick up a big clay earthworms. Because hey, they look like a darn snake. You big as your finger.

And big old night crawlers. Yeah. Oh, hey, a foot long. Yeah. When it rains, they'd come on top. We'd pick them up and fish with them for a month. Yeah. Daddy had two sticks and he

and he would cut leaves in. Chumb them up. Chumb them up. Them things come up. Vibration. I thought that was a lie until the guy showed me. Yeah. Look, I don't hijacked the email section. Johnny Dee. I'm sorry. Look, what is in our email? You're a weirdo.

I like the body slam, do you? Yeah, that's all. Yeah, he body slammed her. It happened. Oh. She wanted to play. I thought she wanted to do. There's been two of them, so I got to bring it out. That's it. All right. And I watched the first one. The first one's a TikTok. And we can't play that or anything. But Catherine emailed in, Uncle Si is right again, and she sent me a TikTok. and you know Rob Blow, the actor.

It's, you know Roblo. I know. Everybody knows Roblo. I know the name. I'm just trying to put his face to it. Everybody knows Roblo. This guy. There he is.

Okay, that's who I thought it was. So Roblo's doing some weird TikTok on what he eats in a day. And he's just doing it in his voice where he's very formal and stuff. And then he goes, and for dinner, I sometimes have a chicken or I have a steak cooked medium rare plus and doesn't check up, doesn't slow down. It's just like a matter of fact thing that medium rare plus is a thing. So Catherine had to tell me Uncle Size right. Look, Rob Lo agrees.

And I'm like, I ain't reading that on the podcast. And then lo and behold, Daniel from Ringgo, Georgia emails in. And he headed over to Gunnersville. Uh-oh. And went to Big Mike Steakhouse, which is, Clearly where you belong, which sounds, I mean, Big Mike Steakhouse sound like a place. On Lake Gunnersville? On Lake Gunnersville.

That's a place you can find so cholesterol. Okay. That sounds like a place I need to go to. Yep. Apparently it's on the lake, beautiful view. Well, he's checking out the menu, and the menu says medium's the best for the stakes, and he's more of a medium well guy, the old Daniel, which that's kind of weird, man. Medium rare is where it's at.

And he asked the waitress. And the waitress recommends medium plus. What's medium plus? Exactly. Light, pink. Overcooked. It's, but apparently the five or six that we had weren't good enough. And Si started a movement.

That's right. I thought medium was pink in the middle. No, medium is blood in the middle. That's not true. That's medium rare. Well, hey. medium right blood in the middle

you're gonna get it and it'll be leaking blood no well when you cut it and get through eating the plate will be blood red no yep not on god ones because he gonna stop that up with a toast that's right

palely though I'm just telling you with that big old Texas you don't toast it okay it's gonna be blood on it or what it's worth I'm gonna listen to Cy Robertson before I listen to Rob Loeb but Well, medium plus sounds like medium rare chicken.

Who said that? You read that? You don't need that. You did read. You did say that. Chicken steak or whatever. But you were obviously referring to just the steak. My bad.

I didn't mean to say to. Because one thing that nobody's ever ordered is medium rare chicken. You don't want a bloody, bloody chicken. There's a few things in this life that you don't want Audente. Chicken is one of them. Chicken is one of. Pork to the other one. So, no, pork's fine.

The right piece of pork is fantastic if you stop it at about 140 degrees. Yeah. But anyway. Anyway. Let's close with a Bible verse. But I did feel the need to give him his credit. Apparently there's some weirdos out there ordering stakes in half-fises. You're right there with Rob Lowe.

I got a good say, give me some charcoal. Give him some charcoal. Genesis 314, the Lord God said to the serpent, because you have done this. Cursed are you more than all cattle and more than every beast on the field on your belly you will go and dust you will eat all the days of your life.

That's right. Snake stink. That's right. That's what he did to him. I just showed him some love, man. We'll see y'all next time right here in the room. We're out.
