what about willie's birthday well the man's 49 i know but hey that ain't even important that's weird
what was the important is two chefs showed up and one of them was in the okay uh cauliflower okay okay uh
Taters.
Mushrooms and taters.
Hasselback.
Okay.
Hasselback taters.
Yeah, I don't know what that means, but I know.
Then the other chef come up with the meat tray, boys.
Well, you had a chef.
Tendaloyne and ribby.
I'm trying to give a round of applause.
Well, you have a.
No, no, no, look, hey, that tenderloin, the bark on that mess.
I was just, just trimmed the bark off.
Okay, and forget the meat part.
So I wanted to take a vegetable peeler to it and just get that bark off and leave the rest.
You're talking about fine.
Oh, it was good.
That mouth right now is like your faucet turned on.
It was a lava.
I'll tell you, it wasn't easy.
40, how many people you think were there?
Oh, it was whatever they told you, double.
Yeah, double whatever they expected.
Well, I'll tell you this.
It was so good the food was.
They had, what, three meat trays and then a couple of potato trays.
There was one piece of meat left on the, you know, Corey Larka got left out.
Yeah.
Well, there were, I count them.
There were 50 states.
Yeah.
I cooked two whole.
Okay, and these are not thin.
No, no.
Okay, these are slabs.
I cooked two whole tender loins and half of a prime ribby.
Yeah.
Smoked.
Yeah.
And it's all gone.
Wasn't nothing left but the juice on the tray.
The juice on the tray.
I'm going to say about the rednecks down.
Hey, you break out the food?
They will come.
I'm going to be honest with you.
The only reason that juice was left on that tray is because there wouldn't
no bread to sop it up with it.
Because your boy went back to the tray.
It wasn't.
Yeah, because I'd have liked to just take it like you so much.
Oh, I would have taken a piece of French bread.
Oh, no.
I'd have regretted it an hour later.
But you know what?
In the moment, I would have softed that mess up.
It was fine.
It was as fine of a 49th birthday celebration as I've ever been apart.
Yeah.
You know, when you're in a situation like that, you can find out a lot about a human's character.
Just by watching how they act around a meat trait.
I agree.
Especially when you look over your shoulder and there's 40 other people there and you're looking at that meat, but you ain't counting, but you know, like, most of us know that this is a one-piece deal.
You didn't come here to get full.
If you came here to get full, that's a wrong attitude.
That's why I was getting in the front of the line,
because if you're in the back and you're looking,
and you're going, oh,
I was in the back.
The tray is getting light, boys.
But for some reason,
everybody skipped an end piece of that ribby,
and I was just watching it for about five minutes from the back.
I was like, don't get it.
And I heard you say when somebody got that in piece.
Diego got the other end piece.
And I said, Diego, oh, hey, hey.
Hey, you got that piece.
And then I was waiting.
And then I found.
one more I was like come on come on come on trying to weed Diego out and I got it
terrible but I only I hey we but me and Diego both got the end pieces but then I only got like
three potatoes that's all I got but I mean I could ate that whole tray a potato but you know
who it was oh say he's Mr. Workout man yeah the guy she posted on Instagram a couple of days ago
that went to chickfilet and rawls for dinner decided I'm just going to come up here
and eat this whole platter and meet Christian look you're new here
You ain't there yet, son.
I don't care if you are giving birth to a child.
Just because you work out and you've given them another grandkid doesn't entitle you to two pounds of meat at the birthday celebration.
Sorry, dog.
We may get him in this chair and confront him face to face about it.
We're going to teach him how to function in gatherings.
Old boy can eat, though.
Oh, he can.
But I think he's like swimming eight miles a day.
He's like Michael Phelps or something.
Well, that's not my fault.
He started.
Y'all got to understand something here, though, okay?
Most people have never had access to this kind of cooking, okay?
So when they run up on it, that's a good point.
No, no, when they run up on it, okay.
They become gluttonous.
Yeah, they just tell me, good, Chris, did you taste that?
Yeah, yeah, well, I know one thing.
Every since Christian showed up on the scene,
Willie's request for Crappy have doubled.
There's never any leftovers.
So I'm like,
whatever happened to lunch the next day at Willie's house.
Now, that's out.
You know how many meetings I've scheduled around whatever Willie did last night?
Yeah, whatever he cooked the night before.
Hey, boss, I got to come talk to you.
Yeah, let's go.
Let's go ahead.
We'll have another meat.
Pizza oven going.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And now it's like, hey, boss, I'm going to be there about lunchtime.
And he's like, he's scrounging up peanut butter and jelly because Christian ate it all.
What scared me was the most important person in the room almost didn't get to eat.
Corrie?
Corey was looking around and there was one steak left.
And it was a small piece.
Yeah.
Okay.
I mean, that's all I got.
I just got one of the center slabs and moved on.
I wanted.
Let me tell you, I did a, hmm.
I mean, I got one and the tongs didn't want to go back to the tray.
Like, they held in my hand for a minute.
I said, oh, buddy, could I ever?
And then I got to look in for some French brats.
to get on that juice.
Let's say who else we can point it.
It was Christian.
He was one of the culprits.
Oh, my boy, Tony, Ophillis's husband, he's developed a little reputation.
Yeah.
Now, he likes food.
Yeah, he likes food too.
Yeah, big Tony.
Big Tony.
Again, I have to remind y'all.
I sat with you.
Most people have not eaten this well.
Yeah.
Oh, I know he hadn't.
Yeah.
We're used to some of the finest food that is prepared, okay?
So, yeah.
I just look at them and say, boy,
if you'd have been at Duck Commander in the early days
and actually working here.
Oh, my goodness.
You'd have been on that Godwin plan.
You'd have bypass the Duck Commander 50
and put the Duck Commander Honda on.
You get at the back of the line.
Yeah.
So I got a good story for y'all about Tony.
Big Tony, I love you.
You're an awesome guy.
So you got to have thick skin boys if you're around Robertson because we're going to pick.
Oh, by the way, Tony is Phyllis's husband.
Phil's new daughter.
I got a good story about that too, whatever we get done with this one.
So I call, you know, the older Miss Kay gets and her sister, A.N.
Or ain't at it.
And they're awesome to be around.
But I call them the food police now because they're always watching.
who gets what
especially
when Tony's there
and it's become
you know
Al makes jokes about it
we laugh
so Phil made a big old
pot of gumbo
and there was
all the sausage floats
to the top
you know
well
oh don't tell me
Tony's a skimmer
he's a skimmer
he's a skimmer
he's a skimmer boy
watch him
he scimmed
all that sausage
up
top of that that gumbo and when miss kate got up there to get some gumbo that wasn't no sauce
and we heard about that for three weeks you know they said can you believe that man took all the
sausage out of that gumbo you learn a lot about a person when you see a meat in a group
setting it's fantastic you can you can tell like it's it's good the skimmer that's good stuff
The skimmer.
Oh, look, I've been a cherry picker before my life, too.
I mean, I go there like, man, I sure would like one more piece of sausage.
I go ahead.
I don't take the ladle to it.
Yeah, you know.
Get down in the bottom of it.
I try to, I try to enter in the middle, and then look at what side's heavier on sausage and come up that way, rather than.
Look how, boys, he's got a sane with him.
He didn't even get no juice.
He ain't even going to leave the little shiners.
He's going to get them all.
Yeah, them two where I think were the bank.
Oh, Rebecca.
I looked at, Rebecca got three slabs on her plate.
And, you know, your boy, Christian, he said, boy, he said,
that was really good, but you didn't make near enough.
The man going to go to the cook of the party and say, you didn't make, well, what'd you do?
What'd you do?
Oh, boy.
And then Rebecca was right there.
I said, well, you need to talk to her.
It looks like she got three steaks on her plate.
And she went, huh?
I'm an exchange student.
No, that line played out long ago.
You've been here 15 years now.
Our foreign exchange cousin, you don't get to play the Taiwan card anymore.
English is no longer a second language.
You know what you did.
This is fine.
Like, you know, but there are three of them, so it's not, you know.
See, but last night at Willie's house,
you always, always eat last because that's when Willie normally eats.
Yeah, except for last night.
He went first.
He didn't last night.
And I was just standing around waiting because you always eat when the chef eats.
Yeah.
Because that's always better.
And I got got.
Yeah.
Well, Willie, and I'll say the biggest compliment that came from the night,
Willie sat down, I wouldn't in line yet.
He sat down and started eating.
He said, you know, this is one thing I don't cook.
He said, and this is the,
why he said i don't have the patience for this and this stuff is so good and he's just sitting there
scarfing it and i'm like and i ain't even in line yet i'm looking at that i'm looking at that line
and i'm saying uh-oh and that's him oh because the one thing that willie does if you cook
something or do anything in life he's going to go nah i can do that better yeah and he's gonna and then he's
going to spend months making sure he does it and then he's going to oh it tastes mine but with stones
ribbys he's like nope he ain't he ain't going there
He got to the front of the line.
He got about three pounds of mushrooms, which is his party.
He's 49, baby.
There's no judgment on the man whose party is.
You get whatever you want.
That's right.
And then everybody else has to adjust off of that.
But he did, and he sopped that stuff up.
And I'm just looking, I'm looking at him.
I'm looking at that line.
I'm like, man, we're a long ways apart.
Golly.
And look, my boy Martinez with them sides.
His sides be swinging.
Man.
David Marcheuse, he can cook.
Oh, man.
Where were those potatoes?
They're called Hasselback potatoes.
He bowled them in crab bowl.
And then once they got soft, he got a cookie sheet.
He shaped them.
Some kind of oil.
He smashed them.
No, no, he shaped them.
Yeah.
He smashed them.
Yeah.
I thought they were stupid, the mushroom.
I thought they could.
They were in the mushroom shape.
Yeah.
And I said, I'm never saying the mushrooms that color.
Those little tater.
Yukon gold.
Yeah, they were good.
They were just like butter when you ate them.
Then he seasoned them and put olive oil, more seasoning, more olive oil.
Well, he put them in another three or four times.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, he'll take it now?
He tasted one of them, tell him it now.
Will he come by and grab one?
Tom it, no.
Hey, tumulte eat.
Oh, they're good.
But they were fine.
They were good.
Those mushrooms.
Well, let's take our first break.
We'll be right back after this.
All right, look, springtime is here.
It's warming up.
You know what that means.
That means more outside cooking.
And y'all know we love to eat beef around here.
And that's because of our friends over at Triedells beef makes such a good product, baby.
Ain't it good?
It's so good.
Our friend, Sao Robertson would say, buy on the grill.
Look, before we got Triedells, 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 come to him.
But with Tritails beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way.
Tritails 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 Tritails Beef.
I know in size case Christine loves it,
which is just a, she doesn't eat meat.
She isn't a big meat easier, folks.
Yeah.
Just go to trybeef.com slash.
That's trybeef.com slash support ranch families
and eat some dang good steak.
Ah, look, I do want to talk about one other thing from the party.
Let our fans and listeners on a little bit of the back story.
How about his cake?
That thing, it tasted really good.
Oh, you ate some of them?
Yeah, it gave it.
It was sad.
I don't eat cake, but every once in a while, like, every time I see one, I'll take a pass.
What was that right in the middle of it?
And everybody busted out laughing.
Did you see it?
Yeah, I've seen it later, but at first I didn't see it.
Everybody got around and said, oh, it's so cute, and they all busted out laughing.
And I said, what's this all about?
So it's a big blue cake that looks like water.
And they got one of the old Duck Dynasty Willie action figures
and were baptizing.
I don't know if it was like a GI Joe or what,
but he was baptizing somebody.
Because I don't know if our listeners know,
Willie likes baptizing.
Oh, guarantee you.
He's the director of evangelism at our church.
And he likes to spread the good news, which we all do.
I got confused, you know, because it's 49,
which is kind of a, I guess it's a,
milestone because now you're almost 50 so i didn't know if it was burying the young beardless
willy and like here's what come out yeah yeah it's technically a baptism so to speak or
if he saw christian in that line and he was chokeslamming him under the water for eating all
like me i didn't i didn't know which one it was that may have been what they was laughing
about yeah could be all i know is i got through eating i went and dumped my plates and i'm
standing there in the kitchen and john david's middle son come up to me don't say nothing
Don't say hi.
He looked at me and said, I want cake.
Cake.
I said, well, am I the mark?
So then I had to go ask John David and Allison.
Can the boy have cake?
You know, because them kids, no, I'll give me anything.
It don't matter to me.
Like, you ain't my kid.
I don't care.
Yeah, eat it here.
Here you go.
My kids don't get a lot of candy or fun stuff at the house.
My wife is a, she's a cook.
She'll be like, eat your asparagus.
And he doesn't, but the other two are like, oh, yum, vegetables.
and I'm like, y'all are weird.
It don't sound like your kids have much fun at home, J.D.
They have a lot of fun.
Oh, they have more fun than me.
I died out laughing when little pint-sized bins come around the corner.
It always said, I want cake.
Yeah, but they don't get a lot of cake.
We try to limit the sugar intake because I don't know if you know me.
It's woo-hoo, woo-hoo.
Yeah.
So we try and keep them from being like that.
Yeah, they bounce off the wall.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was funny because I had a little cutter.
I said, how big a piece you want?
He said, more.
More.
More.
More.
More.
I said, no, Ben, I'm going to stop right here.
And then we'll go.
Cut it and half, Martin.
We'll go from there.
And he ate the whole thing.
He tried to carry it.
I said, no, let me take it.
I said, I ain't cutting this again.
Let me go find your seat and I'll bring it to you.
How about that?
But it was a good time.
Celebrating the boss, 49.
If 49 was that fun.
Oh, the other thing that happened, we'll tell this one, too.
What else happened?
So Willie had a little challenge last night.
at his birthday party.
So you had already gone, but he's got a little golf green right there
adjacent to his house, a little artificial golf green.
And he wanted to play closest to the pin because he's obviously been hitting a lot of
shots at it.
So he's like, if I win, or if I win, y'all all pay me 20, but if one of y'all can beat me,
I'll just pay them 100.
So it was like five to one odds on all of us stuff prepared and hit a golf ball.
So why not?
Of course, I get up there and shank it.
I ain't swung a golf club since September.
It was ugly, Martin.
Hey, but I was peeing high.
I had the right number.
Yeah.
So it was just about 30 feet left.
There were some children in danger in the yard when they were on Martin's club.
I asked if I could throw 20 back and hit another one, but he didn't like.
But of course, I went first.
I respected that of you.
Everybody was like, who's going first?
I was like, I forget.
Get me a club.
I ain't swung since September.
Let's have some fun.
Well, who won the money?
Well, this is where it gets better.
So Jace gets up there, shocker.
Hits one to about 10 feet.
And I'm like, man, Jason, are you really about to close?
Flip your brother on his birthday.
Yeah, he was.
Yeah, oh, he was going to do it.
Oh, he's a hustler.
But then Corey's assistant, John David's counterpart on Corey's side, gets up there,
and Jace gives her a little lesson.
About a 20-minute lesson.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We were all like, all right, moving along.
Talk about hits the ball.
I honestly thought she'd miss the ball.
And then she plays a British open-style shot over wet grass,
blom-blunk to three feet.
Takes it down.
It was unbelievable.
She never hit a golf ball in her life.
Yeah.
Of course, you know who took credit for it.
Jason.
Well, I mean, I didn't want to be greedy.
I had to give her.
That's what he said.
After he got beat by Lindsay.
Oh, I can just hear it.
Here we go.
Yeah, after Chase got beat by Lindsay, he said, I mean, I didn't want to win it with my ball not technically on the dream.
I mean, I would have, you know.
Oh, my goodness gracious.
Because Lindsay hit that ball just perfect.
It was a beautiful shot.
Yeah.
Don't you didn't get in on that action?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, he chunked.
I tried my little flopper and chuffed it.
I went over.
There was a, yeah, Johnny D.
ended up in the bunker.
There was a couple of balls and went just, oh, Christian.
He had the meat sweats and hit one halfway across the pond.
Christian, I could have hit one twice and not made it that far.
It was ridiculous.
Oh, meat sweat.
Yeah, he hit a hundred yards 60-degree wedge.
I would take.
Go ahead, yonk, and hit one.
I made a little comment about his shorty shorts.
Oh, yeah, you did.
And then Martin laughed.
Who all laughed?
You know I laugh.
Johnny Dee.
Because I already make fun of his shorts a lot.
Because, I mean, let's just be honest.
My legs aren't as muscular as his, but all my boxers are longer than his shorts.
So every time I'm like, why are you wearing your underwear out in public, man?
What did I say?
You sure have some pretty legs.
oh it's rough being new to this family oh i guarantee you better have thick thick skin
i'll tell you they they rode me like a horse my first few years oh hey yeah me too i know that
i don't understand the men and short shorts thing either though because do you remember it was
one fourth of july reed robertson jason jason's always shows up and i'm like i look at him i'm like
what where's the and martin goes hey read and everybody's listening and go hey cool shorts where's the
rest of them and i've never laughed so hard but yeah these they were but re like christians last night
were short reeds were uncomfortably yeah like i was like and i feel like i'm the young man
of this whole organization here but i don't even understand yeah i don't know when golf shorts left
like they should should should be somewhere around you need these are a little uncomfortable for me
I prefer touch your ankle.
Yeah, you're a basketball short.
Yeah.
Well, you know those short shorts are making to come back
because I was a couple years ago watching college basketball,
and they were wearing short like Larry Bird, Magic Johnson.
Yeah, Carlin' own shorts.
I don't know what happened.
Yeah.
Something happened.
Well, it seems like all fashion trends seem to circle back,
but I think that's one we could have left behind, you know.
Men in short shorts.
Yeah.
We can leave that in the dust.
Al told him, he said, boy, he said,
you ain't going to be doing old dancing tonight.
He was talking to Christian.
Chris said, huh?
He's like, no ballroom.
Hey, there ain't no ballroom.
Just like a motel six, son.
There ain't no ballroom in there.
And we ain't going to eat an idol for you either.
Oh, Lord.
I do like Christian now.
I think we need to address that.
Oh, yeah.
He's a great guy.
Fantastic human dude.
Very hungry and very small shorts.
Yeah.
Very fantastic.
As nice a guy as you ever want to meet, totally get Sadie's deal.
Like, totally get it.
If Martin worked out four times a day, got a little nicer and just ate like a hog, he'd be just like Christian.
Yeah.
But at the same time, like, it's our job to make him better.
That's right.
Like, that's what we're here for.
Life advice.
We've all been through it.
Because now when he goes places,
They're going to be like, well, you're in there.
So they're judging him based on, they're judging us through him.
So if he's not doing better, that reflects poorly on us.
And it wasn't three weeks ago that I was called the Human Roomba.
And I'm looking at him like, bro, calm down on the food.
Yeah.
I will say this about Christian.
If my daughter brought home somebody like Christian, I would be ecstatic.
Oh, 100%.
Wonderful person.
Just really, really hungry.
Jim of a human.
Christian, I love you, bro.
Yeah.
Hey, calm down on the group eating.
Yeah, we do that at home.
Also, don't hurt me.
Hey, we love you.
We threw on a bus and backed up three or four times on top of you, but hey, we love you.
And please, whatever you do, don't put me in a headline.
No.
Don't give me the chokehold, boys.
I can show you how to get out of that headlock.
Stone's the only one in this room with a chance against him in a fight.
And I'd probably put my money on Stone.
Oh, no, I got a chance.
I fight dirty.
Well, yeah.
Me and you would grab a waddle.
Yeah, that cane right there behind you.
I'm swinging for a kneecap.
You can't take on one of them flatbellies straight up, son.
That's a bad deal.
I would throw stuff in a fight.
Yeah, you can't take one of them straight up.
That's not a good deal.
Because I got like a minute, minute and a half.
That's it.
Like these three minute rounds, no, I'm out.
A minute, minute and a half, I'm done.
Weapons.
He's got to.
He's got to get you and get you quick.
That's exactly right.
I'm going to hurt you and I'm going to hurt you bad.
Yeah.
And I'm going to do it very quickly because I hang up with one shot.
So I got to make this baby good, boys.
Well, let's take a break.
We'll be right back after this.
All right.
Well, look.
So we had the big feed at Willie South last night.
Oh, Lord.
Moving on.
Yeah.
This side's not going to recover.
The break got weird, people.
Oh, I like that.
That was good.
That was a good break story.
But we're going to hold that one from y'all.
So what's we get done with the podcast today?
We're going on a little grocery route.
Where are you going?
He got that Skeeter on his shirt.
You see that Skeeter?
I thought that was a hummingbird.
That means one.
It is.
It is a hummingbird.
There you go.
Good.
You got it.
Yeah.
And we figure to go and get in a boat.
And the hummingbird is sitting on the boat.
And hey, he's a fish magnet.
Okay.
He's a fish.
Whop.
Right here, right here, right here.
Stop there.
Then you throw that little crappy magnet out there, salt and pepper,
and give it whatever count the water depth is, and then it's like.
Reel them in.
Oh, this is going to get the net.
So that's what you're going to do.
So you're not going to work the rest of the day?
No, he got him.
Oh, yeah, I'll fix it work.
I fixed work.
It's real.
Okay.
Hey.
Are you going to set your record?
Last episode's.
done, we found out that size caught a four-pound crappie before.
Oh, yeah.
That wasn't verifiable.
I mean, we don't know.
No witnesses.
We didn't.
There was a witness, but we didn't weigh it.
I put it on the stringer and guess what got it?
A big loggerhead turtle.
That's why I shoot every one of my run upon.
Because he took my full pound copy.
The only fish on it.
I have 25 on the stringer.
He ate one.
That's the one I would ate too.
The big one.
That loggerhead like that alligator on Happy Gilmore, son.
I thought you were going to say that loggerhead like Christian.
Oh, well.
No, he'd ate all of them.
That's right.
He wouldn't eat the big one.
He'd ate all of them.
He'd have started and I cleaned the whole finger.
Yeah.
He would ate more than one.
That's what I gathered.
Well, that's good.
So y'all go on Crappyfish.
Oh, yeah.
You'll go cany?
Yep.
For a big black crappie.
On that little post bomb.
on buy it they all gather back up on them on them on them on them
they get real real hungry you used to live on cany didn't yeah yeah how many
10 pound bass have you caught out of cany lake oh only two 10-pounders but I've
caught a plethora of eight eight to ten pounds eight to ten yeah that double
digit is a hard one it is that 10 one is a that 10 one is a it's a tough one to
break the big one yeah but my dad's only caught like three nine pound bass and his
life.
I caught three over ten and every one of them blind luck.
I mean, like, I'm just...
My dad fished the same fish for about a year at one point.
That was before he owned a tackle shop.
And so he was just every day, he had to cany and go get that.
One year, there we go.
I hooked 30, 30 what, baths over six.
Over six.
Yep.
And some of them, one of them about 15.
Is that when he was in Alabama?
No.
Was that on a golf course?
No, it was right here in Louisiana.
One of them was the biggest one I ever hooked was on Corny Lake.
The dam busted.
The lake dropped about four foot.
So all the cypress trees, it dropped four foot,
and all the roots were above water.
So I was out there fishing in a pre-wrote one day.
You know, I kept hearing a big splash.
I looked around and never could see it.
You know, finally, splash.
I looked over there under the roots.
root one, big old bath, his tail looked like it was that
bad.
Coming on that root wide and
blasted water up there and bugs fall in and eat the bug.
By the big old Willow Lee spinnerbait, white skirt.
Past the tree and before I could even click the bell,
this line then took off, heading out.
It was like sticking a log.
It didn't move.
Boom!
If you're listening, you're really missing out on the YouTube channel right now.
Hey, there's a lot of action.
Oh, hey, I'm really around.
I get him out there about here, the camera over there.
And he comes up like a big whale.
And I can see half of him.
And about this much of him is out of the water.
And that little fin on his side.
Okay, it's down with that.
Okay, so the eight inches is sticking out.
So it's, oh, goodness, it's a monster.
It's a saltwater.
So look, hey, I start playing it.
Fish is running, you know.
There's a lot.
There's a play in a P-row.
Oh, no, no, no.
He's playing you.
No, no.
That's what I wasn't noticing.
Okay, because, hey, y'all, he's running.
Oh, yeah, okay.
Oh, whoa, whoa.
You know, I got him up pretty close.
Y'all, get him back up, and the next thing, it's a run.
You know, no.
He can't be.
No.
No.
I hope y'all turned y'all's radio down.
Oh, no, no.
That got my ears.
No, no.
Then I look.
I'm one mile from where I through that bait.
Okay.
You're the greatest storyteller all the time.
No, no, no.
For all you fishermen out there, if your story doesn't sound something like this, you're doing it wrong.
That's all I'm going to tell you.
I don't think corny lakes a mile long, by the way.
No, yeah, it is.
All right.
So I'm looking.
The damn busted.
I'm saying,
it's bigger than it shows on Google Maps right now.
Look, I'm hung up, so I paddle up there beside it.
And I'm looking at the bottom.
The water's clear.
I'm about six foot deep.
He catches it with his hands.
No, no.
There's a giant log laying on the bottom of this lake.
And there's one limb on that giant log sticking up.
And I'm going, you've got to be kidding me.
And I look over and tell him, yeah, I'm a mile from where I hooked him.
I said, that stupid bass has been pulling me over to this one limb for the past 15 minutes.
And then he just run by and unhooked himself.
Here he goes.
He goes.
Look, but hey, that was 30.
I hooked, no, I hooked 30 bass that year.
And guess how many I'll put in the boat?
29.
Zero.
So how do you know they were all over six?
Here's what happened.
It's just got a lot of questions.
They either broke the rod, okay, and I did a lot of that.
I was buying new rods every other day.
Sound like you had an anger problem.
Strip the gears on the stupid reel, okay?
Every once in a while, one would break the 20-pound test line brand new.
Is he using your stuff today, Stone, or his own?
He's using my stuff.
It's all going to be broke.
It won't break.
No, Stall takes.
Care.
Unreal.
No, no, unreal.
No one should have that kind of bad luck.
And then you want to sit here and tell me that you and BK
last two weeks ago caught ten over five.
I know who called them now.
Hey, she caught five and I caught five.
50 pounds apiece.
Well, something about your two stories ain't adding up.
Well, hey, look, I had a good day with her.
When he's fishing on a job.
I was fishing by myself now.
I ain't don't had no good day.
The tails just keep growing.
Oh, my good disgrace.
So that bass pulled you one mile in 15 minutes.
So that means he was swimming four miles prior.
Oh, no, no.
Hey, look, he would have weighed 15 pounds.
15.
His mouth.
Bigging.
Hey, he could have ate that hat.
Bigging.
He could have ate that hat and not even close the mouth.
You know what Corny Lake is famous for?
It's the big old grannels they got up there.
No, this wasn't a little grinnell.
This wasn't a big large mouth of bass.
So the state record large mountain bass for our state is 15.97 pounds.
Well, I lost the biggest one now.
He was number two.
No, he was number one.
If I had to put him in the boat, I'd have been happening.
Where'd they catch him?
Cany or Toledo Bin.
Greg Wiggins.
Toledo Ben.
Tadaleet Lake.
Toledo Ben's got to be cany, huh?
Toledo Ben.
That's either Cainee.
Cany, 1994.
1984.
1994.
How long?
What was you?
15?
Yeah.
And that's bigger than most.
Let's see.
Let me look at him.
I don't know.
Let me look at him.
That's just a picture of a guy in a bass.
Hey.
What did I tell you?
All right.
Look at that bass.
Cut him in hay.
I love.
Eight inches.
I love.
I love fishing stories.
Golly.
I'm telling you, boy.
He's got more than a couple, too.
I love them.
Well, look, let's take a break.
We're going to recover from that fishing.
door and we'll go fishing for something else when we get back.
So you boys are going fishing this evening, so I guess that means ain't no duck calls
are going to get built, but that'll be fine.
Well, I did a little extra yesterday.
He made a few.
Leave old Johnny G.
down there in charge.
Oh, I think he's, he got wind when he's going to fish next to him.
One time them samples getting here, I said, I'll meet y'all out there.
Well, maybe I need to go get in a boat with Galvin then.
Golly.
I think so.
There you go.
I need take it off too.
I'd be frowned upon.
I got to.
My father-in-law is coming in town to visit.
Have fun.
That's fine.
I like my in-laws.
I actually do.
I love my in-laws, too.
Hopefully they're listening.
Yeah.
I'm just kidding.
No, I got good in-laws.
I've said that.
They're good.
Part of that may be that they're eight hours away.
And that and they're hill people.
Yeah, they are.
Well, they're in that bowl up there in the middle of Tennessee.
They really have.
I've never even heard about your in-laws.
You got any stories?
Uh-oh.
No.
He said no.
There's a reason we're not.
No, they're good people.
Robertsons are famous for their courteousness.
And what's the word I'm looking for, Martin?
I don't know, but they do have a very welcoming nature about them.
Oh, yeah.
We were all excited when Willie married into our family.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A couple of us were.
Yeah.
I thought he was fun.
Yeah, there was a bunch of meetings about you don't want to marry him.
I was only like four.
I was not part of those meetings.
Thank you, Willie, for pushing through.
Man, a lot.
I know.
I was always thinking about Toby Keith.
How you like me now, baby?
Thank you.
Look at you.
Look at me now, son.
What did your mama say about old dash?
old Gordon
Oh my mom didn't like Gordon
your mom
To clarify that size
Gordon married size sister
Just to just to
Just to use my terminology
He ain't much
Gordon if you are listening
And you haven't told us what a great job we're doing
I like you
Everybody loves Gordon
Turns out he's one of the most
likable humans on the planet.
As long as that ain't football season.
But we do throw him
under the bus and run over him.
Your mama used to say
they were telling me that she would say
he's despicable, despisable,
and there was one other one
that went with it.
Disgusting?
No, I forgot it anyway.
But she had three words
to describe Gordon.
It was funny.
Man, that's funny.
I can't remember.
Well, Stone, you like your
You're in-laws, don't you?
And a total disaster.
Do what?
You like your in-laws.
Oh, I love my in-laws.
Well, you think I'm going to sit here and say I don't?
Hey, that boy's educated.
I live three houses down to my in-laws, and that feels a little close.
Stone live one house away from his in-laws.
Oh, they're awesome.
Oh, it's good for babysitting.
Well, you know, I turn out, turns out I'm the babysitter.
Is it?
Oh.
You know, they just show up, and I look up, everybody's gone, but me.
And all the kids.
kids.
Yeah, and they don't, nobody even says, they don't even, they just drive by and I think they
throw them out of the back of pickups.
Yeah.
How's theirs?
Because next thing you know, you're sitting there every minute and it's, you know, all the cool
stuff, all the toys.
That's true.
You know, all the swing sets, trampolines.
Swimming pool.
Yeah, it's all at our house.
Yeah.
All the grills.
Yeah.
And the food.
That's what draws up.
The grills and the fish fire.
So I get down the wind of that smoke.
Yeah, I got to get over there.
Yeah, that'd be all right.
That'll work.
But you know what?
You look up and them kids are grown.
Oh, yeah.
I don't mind it.
I actually enjoy it.
You know, it'd get under my skin from time to time.
When you put things in perspective, you sit back and say,
this ain't going to last long.
Let's enjoy it while they're young.
Stone does have a soft side.
We even talked about it.
You weren't here the last episode, but you gave a certain toast.
Yeah, but see, hey.
That choked us all up.
You know, Stone, if you get fed up with it, hey.
It's not beyond him taking a belt off.
It, hey, we're up in a whole bunch of children.
I'm talking about it.
Now, go home and tell your mom and dad, I tore your butt up.
For the record, that has never happened.
I disciplined my own children.
I might throw some words of encouragement to other people's kids,
but I only disciplined my own kids.
I lived around the corner from Stone,
and I've already got the one day when my kids,
I'm just going to send,
I'm going to say,
you go to Stone's house,
he's going to take care of you.
You go work out with Stone's throw a while.
Go work out.
Put him in that sweat locker.
Sweat box.
Yeah.
Carter, get over there and go on that bag for about four minutes with Jay.
Carter ain't making it long on a bag.
He's low muscle tone there.
Takes after his daddy.
Oh, boy.
Oh, Lord of mercy.
Where do we go here?
Yeah, I don't know, but them kids, they do,
y'all's kids have grown up fast.
Good night and I walked in there last night,
going to get a bottle of water,
ran face first into Sage, and I was like,
well, hey, you little teenager.
Hey, I don't know where she come from.
The little blonde tornado.
She is a tornado.
Oh, she is.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, yeah.
She got a mouth on her.
I like it.
She don't take nothing from nobody.
I like it.
It's funny.
I said,
I said, they're trying to mess with her.
She's just giving it right back to me.
I said, and then I said,
hey, you remember Ty when I used to try to talk to you?
You just run away crying.
I said, whatever happened them days.
Yeah.
She talks back now.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what Phil asked her.
Yeah.
He said, why don't you used to cry when I talked to you?
She said, no.
Yeah.
Well, he, Phil traumatized her when she was a baby.
We were sitting in church.
Phil and Kay were sitting behind us.
He tapped her on the shoulder.
She turned around and looked at him.
And he said, what are you doing, no girl?
Got right up in her face.
And she just froze.
So he ruined it for the rest of us with beard.
Phil laughed about it.
You know, he thought it was funny.
Where was Phil last night, by the way?
He don't go to parties.
He ain't a party type person.
I ain't believe it he didn't RSVP via the mobile invite.
Si, I noticed you didn't RSVP either.
Look, I was personally invited.
There you go.
The Stone called, Si, said, hey, I'm cooking a tender oil.
Are you coming?
Yeah, what time.
Willie's house, 630.
So I was there at 605 sniffing that bar.
Oh, I'm already, I'm always early.
Oh, I know you are.
I'm not going to be late.
15 minutes early for you is on time,
and I can appreciate that about a man.
That's that military training.
Hey, I'm never late.
I'm the same time.
On time is late.
That's why you're late.
Well, Phil's motto was, hey, I'm leaving at five.
Well, hey, when he says he's leaving in five, you show up 501.
You're gone.
You're out.
Yeah.
Yeah, we've left to many of people.
Yeah.
Well, let's take our last break.
We're going to come back and we're going to get in that hello at duck callroom.
dot com inbox and the mail box and we got some gifts to talk about mailbox boy somebody we'll be right back
it ain't it ain't money it's buckies all right we're back with the fan segment here hello at duck call

we thought you'd like to try ohio's famous can
Andy Buckeyes.
Enjoy from Matthew and Don.
Matthew and Don, these are peanut butter and milk chocolate-y.
Goodness.
They're wonderful.
They're good.
Yeah, I have one of them.
I've been fine.
Yeah.
That was one of the finest things I've eaten since last night.
I thought it was a chocolate-covered cherry, but it's not.
It's chocolate-covered peanut butter.
That right there?
That's better than Reese's.
Completely changed my view on the Ohio State Buckeyes.
It completely changed my view on the entire state.
Yeah.
I'm going to eat another one, even though I got a little.
He's going to hit one, boys.
They're good.
Oh, they're legit.
Anyway, so I had to bring them up.
Matthew and Don, thanks for being friends and sending us delicious candy.
I'm going to eat stone share too.
And then my boy, John, had a very interesting question that I think you'll be very good at answering.
Oh, wait, before we get into that, I do want to mention one thing.
I got a box of fishing baits up in my office.
Jack Hammers?
No, these are, it's a fifth grader.
I put on my Instagram the other day.
made us all fishing baits he owns his own little tackle company his name is finn huh and so he's got like
finns spinners finners yeah and he's a fifth grader but he does this builds them all himself and he sent us all
one he sent the high one is jet black and called the black panther i was like a shocker a little low-hanging
fruit there finn but no it was cool i mean to see a fifth grader and he's got a bunch of flies which
We don't fly fish, you know, much down here.
But it's really cool to see a fifth grader taking the initiative to start his own business,
doing what he loves.
He loves the fish.
He sent me one, J-1, Cy, U, Gawin, Phillip, Willie.
I got to see this.
He even sent one for Jacob Wheeler.
But it's cool.
It's not really baits that we use, but they'll bite them.
It's like for pike fishing.
It's them inline spinners, if you know what I'm talking about.
Hey, we might have to put those in the old honey hole d'agels.
Yeah, no, fan.
Hey, keep doing your thing, Finn.
I got to end with a very small tackle shop, a very precise location.
We're not academy or anything, but we sell a few fishing baits.
So, Finn, thank you, buddy.
We appreciate you watching.
That's awesome.
And keep being a young entrepreneur.
He's got the right name for a fishing bait maker.
I love that.
Huck Finn, boys.
All right, well, back to hello at duckcallroom.com.
I just really like this email.
He said growing up, he didn't have much money,
so he had some really creative meat.
meals. He grew up on banana and mayonnaise sandwiches.
I've had one.
I haven't. And potato chip and mustard sandwiches.
Hey, I like mustard, but not with my potato chips.
So his question is, are there any redneck foods like that that you grew up on that you would still eat today?
Like the NOM special, whatever that was on that episode?
Oh, that's fantastic. That's fried spam, son. You don't go wrong with him.
So is there any, you had banana and mayonnaise sandwiches?
Yeah.
You slice it thin, okay?
You put thin layer of mayonnaise on the bread,
slice some bananas thin,
put another piece of bread on it,
no.
My grandparents used to eat one called,
what they called a poor boy sandwich,
which was just mayonnaise and tomatoes that they grew in their garden.
Oh, yeah, I've done that too.
That makes more sense.
I like peanut butter and bananas make sense.
Well, you know, the reason Jace doesn't eat mayonnaise is because he ate mayonnaise sandwiches every day as a kid for a run.
When Phil was at his worst, that's what they ate mayonnaise sandwiches every day.
I do like mayonnaise.
I just don't think I can do it with bananas.
I don't like bananas.
I like a lot of things, but some things you don't mix.
And I think bananas and mayonnaise.
You don't mix bananas and mayonnaise?
No.
I feel like that.
That's normal.
I couldn't do it.
No?
No.
But to be fair, I don't want to mix much of nothing with mayonnaise.
Well, I ain't a mayonnaise, me.
I'm a mustard man.
Yeah.
I like mayonnaise.
That's a weird one.
So banana and mayonnaise, John, size with you.
I'm against you.
I don't know what.
I mean, I'm trying to think of a weird meal that I don't think I have any.
Buddy mine was telling me.
Dr. Danes was telling me about when him and his wife first got married,
they made a spam gravy.
But it wasn't spam.
It was a knockoff version of spam.
There's knockoff spam?
Oh, yeah, there's all guys.
No, you don't want to make no gravy out of the spam.
And his wife made a gravy out of it.
No, no.
And they had just got married, and he took a bite out of that gravy and started gagging.
And his wife started crying.
And he said, that's the day that I said, no, we ain't eating spam gravy every night.
I'm going to get off my butt.
and do something.
I did go to a party once where there was pigs in a blanket that were made out of
vienna sausages.
Oh, yeah.
I used to eat vienna sausages a lot, but not in a crescent roll.
It was weird.
Go check my boat.
I know there's my...
Guaranteed there's vienna in my boat right now.
Halapina saunia.
Well, the best one is the Louisiana hot sauce.
Hot sauce is good.
I can't do it anymore.
Just straight.
Just straight vial sausage.
Oh, they're good.
I keep a package of coffee stirs and cans of vayanas up in my boat.
And then you take it and crack that lid, put it on the deck.
That way that jelly melt.
And then you use that coffee stir.
You poke him down the center one and get him out.
Because when you get that first one out, the rest of them come.
And that coffee stir works perfect.
It goes right down the middle.
But you've got to pull it straight up.
Yeah.
I used to.
When I worked, so we sold them at the honey house.
They probably still do because they're in every.
everybody's boat.
And they'd have no expiration.
They're good.
Yeah.
They're good forever.
But I used to eat a can every day.
And then at one point I was like, why am I doing this?
And now I gag every time I think about them.
Really?
Man, I like a bad.
I can't do it.
The one I can't do is that just that potted meat.
My grandma used to eat that potted meat.
It's just called potted meat.
And it's like a meat paste.
And she'd take it.
And he won't get back on that mayonnaise thing.
She would eat that.
She'd put a little dab of mayonnaise on that cracker.
and then that potted meat and she'd eat.
But that's what they ate to survive back in, man.
No, no, the potty meat is gross.
Yeah, and Papal, Papal kept a can of sardines in the boat.
He loves sardine, mustard sardines.
He knows.
Sardines are good.
Did y'all know that Gawin is on a diet?
Is he?
He's lost 18 pounds.
There we go.
He's doing good.
Outta boy.
Now, for lunch, he eats two bags of tuna fish.
Mm-hmm.
But the only issue I have with him,
is that when he gets up to go home, that tuna fish stays on his desk.
Uh-oh.
Those empty bags of tuna fish.
He don't throw them away?
No.
People don't throw those stuff like that here.
Used to Miss Paula picking up after that.
That's it.
He's used to Miss Paula.
So there's a spit cup and two bags of tuna fish on his desk every evening.
Well, in his defense, if you go over to Gobhens' house and you leave your spit cup unattended for less than a minute, it's gone.
I'll tell you, ever since I quit dipping Copenhagen, my six.
sense of smell has come back and if a used spit cup is anywhere around me i'll gag oh yeah i mean i
dip that crap for 28 years and put it down cold turkey and best thing i ever did so you young bucks
listen out there don't get started on that matter that's amen that's like cigarette it is hard it's
hardest thing i've ever had to do is quit quit that and it's all it's a middle game that's a middle
game there's a certain man that i drive around town that happens to leave his spit cups in my car i'll
just let everybody's imagination run wild with who it is.
Not me.
And it makes, every time he leaves them in there, I'm like,
and I have to go throw it away.
One ago, y'all was talking about mayonnaise and mustard.
Mustard, okay, look, I'm in Germany.
They got giant mustard fields.
Okay, I didn't, it didn't ever did, you know,
me and a buddy mine go hunting.
And I told him, I said, hey, there's going to be a buck out there about $2.50.
Don't shoot at him.
He's too far.
Plus, he's right in the middle of the mustard field.
Well, like an idiot, the buck shows up.
He kills him.
So he's out there walking around.
I said, what are you doing?
I told you, get out of there.
You don't get out of that field.
You know, I said, we'll go from the backside.
I said, because you're way off.
You don't even know where he's at.
I know exactly where he fell,
because I know where he stood up every day.
So we go out there and we're not thinking, okay,
this is mustard.
Duh, mustard gas.
So look, we walk out there in that stupid field, okay?
grab this deer, pull him out of there, hey, we don't got a buzz on from mustard gas.
It scared, hey, it scared the owner of this place to death.
We got to tell him about it, and he said, no, he said, we have to wear gas masks when we've harvested this mess.
You know, we said, well, hey, we would think it.
But you know about dangerous.
The only man I know to get a buzz from mustard and Mountain Dew.
no no no no no oh this is a beautiful no no yeah it's a beautiful
flower you know mustard yellow i mean it's mustard greens essentially it's the flower of the
oh yeah but yeah but i didn't know they they gave off gas oh they do big time they do it first
they do in the green stage oh yeah yeah yeah they give off plenty yeah in the growing stage yes
sir right before they get ready to harvest yeah that's funny
I never had any idea.
Oh, yeah.
I'm going to, we don't have time to fact check that one, but I will later today.
We got one more question from the emails, and then we're going to let Stone send us out.
And this one is a question for Stone from Kerry from the mountains of North Carolina.
So BK has become kind of a legend because of the fishing stories.
But everybody wants to know why do we call her Bullfrog?
Well, and I want to know that too, because I call her BK and Bullfrog, and Carrie said,
What are all these nicknames about?
Because she's a fishing legend.
It's her big, beautiful eyes.
Yep, she's got real big eyes.
They look like a frog.
And Phil.
Named a little.
Pepaw Phil is the one who pegged her bullfrog.
It looks like a bullfrog.
Well, now that she's grown up, her eyes have kind of, you know,
grown into her head or her head grown to fit her eyes.
But when she was a baby baby, her eyes were just, she just had huge eyes.
And it was, I mean, she did.
She looked like a bullfrog.
Oh, bullfrog.
And you could, for a while, she embraced the name bullfrog.
You'd say, hey, bullfrog, she could rib it.
Ribbit?
And now she kind of looks at you with a little bit of disdain.
I think she's tired of the name bullfrog.
Oh, no, she don't mind.
Well, she's now a legend in our little podcast community.
Everybody, big fan of the fishing story that we told a few.
I'm a big fan of bullfrog myself.
And if she was in here, she would be the fourth best,
outdoorsmen in this group because I would be fit.
Actually, she might be third.
No, she's probably, no, she's probably second, JD.
Who's first?
Martin's first or son's first?
Stone's first.
What are you?
Yeah, hi?
I ain't him in the race, son.
He's past his prime.
I said, I ain't him in the race, son.
We're some of young people here.
Bullfrogs, you know.
Bullfrogs, you know.
hold her on deer hunting
copy fishing

cooking she's a handy
little tool to have around
she's good she's good kid
well
Stone volunteered for our verse
so
what we got Stone
I was reading the other morning
and I come across this one
it's a good one
1st Corinthians 10 12 and 13
so if you think you
are standing firm be careful that you
don't fall
no temptation
has overtaken you except what is common to mankind and god is faithful he will not let you be tempted
beyond what you can bear but when you are tempted he will also provide a way out so that you can endure
it that's a good one that's a good one that's a very good one because hey when the door slammed there's
always a window open somewhere i guarantee amen well that's it that's pretty cool that you all may may
hear but then there's always a way out yeah and that way out generally starts with jesus
That's it.
It starts with the J, boys.
That's awesome.
Well, we appreciate y'all tuning in.
Look, this was fun, and we'll see y'all next time here in the duck call room.
We're out.
Let's go fishing, sir.
All right, man, I'm ready.
