The duck season, Diamond season is here now. So yeah, you go find something, get you a woman. Pro tip, guys, if you're listening to this.

If you have something like that, I call it a diamond. That doesn't have to be a diamond, but something thoughtful. You're getting Britney diamonds? I didn't say that. That's why I said it doesn't. But that's just the generic term I use for it.

I'll get her something saying, thanks for being a good sport. I'm supposed to get Allison's some hair thing for Valentine's Day, but it's expensive. you'd be all right you can make it think all that money you're saving on food now slam you make yeah i got in a bread cooker oh oh that's a good idea that's what i'm talking about it y'all got fresh bread old-made sourdough bread yeah you on that bread i love that bread i had the first carb i've had in

No, that's it. You're in there, locked in. Beads of sweat were forming on the forehead. And I said, we are in a bind. Forehead's fine, mustache, bigger deal.

Didn't get there. And then I get those to the window and I feel relieved. I'm like, all right, I'm going to make it to work. And they're like, can you please pull forward? We'll have that out in a second. I'm like, oh, no. But at that point, I feel like I could have escaped. So the pressure was relieved.

Oh, okay. Yeah, you could have left if you had to. You could have come back and got you breakfast. That was about a $9 Coke Zero, but instead I got my breakfast. Oh, wait until you get my age. Uh-oh. To hit you fast? Oh, my goodness.

You can't trust a fart. Uh-uh. You can't do it. Yeah. I've had multiple incidents over the last few years. I would say about once a year, and nothing, no warning whatsoever. Nothing in my brain said, this may happen. This is not gas.

and guess what? It happens to everybody. Jumble eyes squirts. My buddy Drew has some of the greatest poop in his pants story ever. When he lived in Dallas, he got stuck in that ice storm. Oh, no. And he couldn't get home. And he was just stuck on the interstate for an hour.

And he's like, I'm never going to make it. He makes it. Gets out of his car, steps on the sidewalk, ice. And he slips about three inches. Well, all muscles. All muscles. muscles relax relax in the driveway

sad day oh you ever pooped your pants martin who I mean I think I'm about two years on that clock I try to keep a running tally

of when I have to reset to the last time I crack my pants clock that's a grown man it's just worse or when you're duck hunting worser that's a cool word oh yeah because hey

that way you get double jeopardy there double jeopardy what why is that you got waded or not Oh yeah I tried to do that the day after hunting I tried to you know I went to go take a leak and And that wanted to happen and I was like nope Nope, so then you know I was like I just had to zip back up real quick so that yeah Because it don't matter how you slice it a little crap is a big deal you know like I mean like whether it's the full bore or just a little bit

It's a little there's no clothes that I own that if it happens that I'm washing Yeah, I'm not that tied they're just they're all getting thrown on a wife. That's trash, yeah. I might have like a pair of shoes that I'd be like, I have to figure this out. But most things I own, trash can. Yeah, man. It's, yeah. Waiters are expensive. That's

double jeopardy. Yeah, but hey. Oh, you got to wash, yeah. No, you got to find dry ground and come all the way out of them. In a hurry. Junk the waders? I ain't ever done it in waiters, so I don't know. I never. I did on top of my wallet one time. Waterproof.

Well, that's the worst thing. Hey, pull you, waiters, down, you know, and hey. Yeah, I had my wallet back here. You didn't get them all the way down. Well, I had my wallet back in my back pocket and it fell out. Yeah, you look back there and you say, oh, good grief. Surprisingly, I'm not the only one that's done that. So I actually know another guy that did it.

Hey, when your man's got to go, got to go. You know, but you're getting in a bind. You better go. That was the day I quit carrying my wallet duck up. I don't care. Yeah, what were you going to buy? You used to have to have your duck stamps and all that stuff on you. But the game wardens and everybody.

caught up to the 21st century, so as long as you got your phone, you can show them you got everything. There's no reason to take your wallet duck hunting anymore. Well, speaking of duck hunting, me and sigh, went duck hunting with our neighbor. And Hunter. And guess who was there? His grandson. He had part of the festivities.

Yeah. Hey, hey, the boy can shoot. See? Look at there. And the boy is quick, too. See? Look at there. And he can shoot.

We have video proof that he actually killed a duck. There you go. On the fly. Hunter got him. On the fly. And then somebody had knocked one down and he was getting away. Hunter. I said, shoot the crap.

Boom. It's just that quick. Hunter's the most interesting person. We've talked about it many times. He is an interesting. There's not many people that can fit into a duck blind with Jay Stone and also go to Comic Con in a costume and make friends there as well. There's just not many human beings that can pull that off.

That's what I said. he's the nerdy redneck and he's the rednecky nerd, you know? It's like it's a, yeah, he, he kind of, he captures a big circle. He fits in anywhere. It's actually a talent. That's, it is probably a little bit of a question. If you hang around his skin folks loaned up, you'll figure out what happened. Uh-oh.

They got a lot of interesting teams. Oh, there, there's nobody on earth I'd rather hang out with than his grandpa. He is a hoot. I'm telling you. Hunter Johnson says. Oh, man. The grandpa from Philadelphia, right? He's an interesting cat, too.

And they all got neat t-shirts that you sometimes send me. All my family is interesting. I don't know. Does he send you all the t-shirts? They're not appropriate for this podcast, but it's a riot. TSA would frisk Hunter's whole family. My whole family is weird. They're all interesting.

Well, that's good. Oh. Otherwise you'd be boring. That's pretty lame. I spent the last day of duck season with one of the duck boys, a little one-on-one time with Mr. Mayo. Hold, we got to talk about it. We're going to have to bring him in here.

He's an interesting cap. Well, he sells other people's clothes, which is genius. Yeah. There's a lot. I'm not here anymore, but I keep up with most things, just Instagram and when I'm in here. But we don't talk about, what is the duck and buck boys? Well, you know, the companies were founded off of the duck men.

before you become a man, you're a boy. They're boys. In every aspect of the word. They're boys. They're boys. They're duck men in training. And so for the colloquial term is duck boys. Or buck boys.

Jacob and crew. Yeah, you name a Willie's son-in-law. Willie's son-in-law. All Willie's son-in-law. And their friends. Except for, Jacob. John Reed, he's, he got his own thing going. Jacob Dill has drive for his dad.

And John Reed's by my age. One of his true bussy. Nobody really knows how old John Reed is. He could be anywhere from 35 to 65. Yeah. It's a while, and he's got an eclectic. I don't, I don't put him in the, in the duck boy category. No, because he's been raised around outdoors the whole, his whole life.

So, no, he don't drive no buses. What are you talking about? He sells other people's, used to. I thought he, I thought he drove a bus for his dad. Jacob, may you?

Yeah. No. I've never even seen him drive a car come to think of it. I used to live next to them. My, uh, my sister is next door neighbors to, uh,

Bella and Jacob. And they, I think one time they were like, they were making fun of my car. And then one day the car followed them to work. To be fair, easy car to make fun of. Yeah.

But, but, when you drive a key. You, you know, you're asking car. Yeah, that's pretty low hanging. You fit in it like one too. Yeah. I said it looks like a sarday can't.

But one day my... Is your car the one with the hamster commercials? No. That's a Kia. Yeah, that's a Kia soul. Keep up with them, sorry. Yeah. But one day my, so my sister and my sister's husband really want to meet them.

They want to meet their neighbors and talk about like their dogs and stuff. It was one day they knocked on their door and I think it was slightly open, but in comes is Jacob wearing nothing but his underwear, freaked everyone out. That fits. Yeah, he's 7-1-292. Yeah, he moved to this side of the interstate. Yeah, he wasn't raised over here. Yeah, apparently everyone was embarrassed by that one.

Why? It's his house. It's his house. Well, I think Jacob didn't know his door was open and walked past while they were standing in the doorway. That's a lot, though. I mean, as long as he wasn't naked. But why is your door open?

Well, probably like me, you walked in there with a handful of stuff. And he just kind of pushed it behind you. You ain't had time to go back yet. Maybe he was having an emergency and then have a change of clothes. It happens to us. I mean, you get in a hurry. You don't stop and check the fine print. All right, look, springtime is here.

It's warming up. You know what that means. That means more outside cooking. And y'all know, we love to eat beef around here. And that's what because of our friends over at Triedale's beef makes such a good product, baby. Ain't it good? It's so good. Our friend, Cyre Robertson would say, buy on the grill!

Look, before we got Tried. 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 comes from. But with Triedales beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Triedales comes from a family ranch out in Texas. They're a fifth generation American ranch. So they've been at it for a while.

Now, look, the beef comes straight from their ranch and other ranchers they work with who raise cattle the same way. Their steaks are properly aged and shipped straight from the ranch to your. door, we threw a couple of ribbys on the grill. Look, salt, pepper, garlic, hot fire, that's all you need. Look, because I tell you what, when the beef comes from people who raise cattle for a living, you can taste the difference. The tenderness and the flavor are fantastic. So if you're stocking the freezer for grilling season, go check out Trial'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 easier, folks. Yeah. Just go to trybeef.com slash. that's trybeef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. So I thanks. I appreciate what happened to me yesterday because of you. Well, I got a text from the head of enforcement for the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission

that said, hey, Mr. Martin, I really need to talk to you when you get some time. Thanks. The head of Arkansas Game and Fish? Enforcement. Did you run? No, but I did stop and look around since I was. was in the state of Arkansas. I was like,

what's going on here? What we try and talk about? Yeah. And how did you get my cell phone number? Apparently, those guys are very resourceful. Crafty. Oh,

well, you have a life. I have an account. So, I mean, they could have went to my account and done everything. But I was like,

man, what have I done? Like, did my auto renew not go through? Like, is this some kind of weird? They're about to pay you to them all. Yeah,

I was just like. We're about to have to make free Justin Martin T's. Yeah. I was like, but you're not going to say no. I said, yeah, man, I'm out hunting. Can I call you when I get done? He was like, yeah, absolutely. Perfect.

Let me get you for what you do wrong. Yeah, good luck. And I'm like looking around. I'm like, drones above you. Oh, man, what are we doing here? But no, since size little boating mishap made, made it all the way to our friends over at Fox News. Are you serious? Oh, yeah.

You know your big time when you slip and fall and you get on Fox News. Yeah, slip fell, ended up on Fox News. So then his boss was like, I see where Sire Robertson had a boating accident in Arkansas, we need a report on the accident because like you're supposed to report all boating accidents in the state of Arkansas. They're under a lot of scrutiny because of like Arkansas public, there's all kinds of boat races and people getting hurt and all that. So they catch a lot of scrutiny for that.

So he wanted to know all about Sia's incident. And I was like, I just started dying out laughing. And he was like, what, I mean, I don't understand what's funny. And I was like, sir, he's, he. Sir, we were parked at the boat ramp and he slipped getting out of the boat. We told the story in great detail. Duck call room, episode. And he said, he said, really?

That's it? I said, yeah, yeah, that's pretty much it. Like, he's old and he's clumsy and he busted his butt. He said, boy, if you read that article, I said, you wouldn't gather that from it. And I said, we made sure that the title of the episode, not. a hunting accident. Yeah. Not a boating accident.

We said fall. Well, Fox News took it and ran with it. Every news took it and ran with it. There you go. Dynasty Star. I'm glad they at least got that part right. Who, how did that even happen?

Not too big a hurry? Not the fall. Oh, so they based that whole report off the podcast. Yeah, they listened to us. Martin said on Monday's episode, recapping the incident, he went to take a long step

instead of waiting for us to move the decoys and the shotgun, a BDH, a big tank hurry. BDH. That's what it is. Oh, my God. But I will say this, look, my hat's off to the Arkansas game and fish people because he was very cordial. He was just doing his job.

And then I ended up talking to him for probably another 30 minutes, just about ducks. And he's a nerd, too, like typical Silas Roberts. I got that quote. Man, you got a quote like you. Somebody give me a blue checkmark. Author. No.

McMillan got quoted. I'm not, Hunter so far, me and you are the only ones that have it been. Yeah, y'all, y'all wouldn't even hear. It's just me and Philip talking apparently.

Sorry about that, y'all. A bunch of pictures of Corey and Willie on red carpets, too. Well, because then they tied it back into, oh, by the way, Doug Dynasty's coming back. I mean, you know. Then there's a bunch of medicines for old people.

Well, that fits. Oh, boy. How many times did we see Joe Biden trip over sandbags all of his blankets tumble down the stairs? I will take sigh any day of the week and twice on Sunday before Biden. Well, boy, there's you a real big, there's you a real big measuring stick. Yeah, yeah, thanks a lot.

They're comparing you to Joe Biden now. There he is, boy. Hey, but he does. He eats a lot of ice cream too. He does. Black walnut. Yeah. No, it was just funny.

But he was very cordial, very nice. And now I have his cell phone number and he has mine. So I'm not sure. You can go shoot like a person up there now. No. No. No, why, now he can track me. You know, like friends.

You got to get that guy on your side. Oh, I am. I think we are. I mean, I would call us at least acquaintances after our conversation yesterday. That's awesome. He was nice and cordial and hats off to the state of Arkansas trying to do the right thing when it comes to boating accidents because they have them every year up there on public ground. Some of those videos you say.

That's what I'm talking about. Yeah, that's why I think that's why they were so concerned with, A, to make sure, too, it wasn't on their property because it never says where. Yeah, y'all didn't say. Yeah, it wasn't on public land. It was on private. So. I didn't see it.

I just heard it. Yeah. It was nice. It was, he was, he was cordial. But boy, when you get that text message doing what we do for a living, I was like, oh, yeah, because you just slip up and make a mistake. You're on Fox News. Yeah, I'm like, and I'm unemployed.

Justin Martin of Duck Dynasty, he shot 50 ducks because his auto renewed it didn't go through. Yeah. In jail. Yeah. So, but no, it was. It was cool with them doing their thing. I'd make t-shirts. Yeah.

Oh, I'd be like peanut, man. Bree Martin. Be on somebody's Amazon show. Oh, speaking of that, I just had to say that. They need to make it easier to get a state license, out-of-state license. Out-of-state? Yep. For.

Because up there, Duck, in Arkansas. Oh. Well, every time, either I can't get mine or Stone can't get it. Well, next time, holler at me. I know your username and password. And he knows the guy. Yeah. Yeah,

we need to get him his own account. He's got one. No, I'm serious. It's always goes this way. He gets mine. Like this time he got mine. And then he couldn't get his.

Yeah. Well, I got your log in. I had fun when I made it. And never dreamed I'd have to call customer service to get it activated last year. Whoops. It's a clever username.

I'll just say that. That's it. It ends with some numbers. Oh, boy. And good numbers. Yeah. It ends with some numbers because I was just having fun. 316 and 17.

He was on the phone. He was on the phone probably during half hours trying to get his. Once it goes wrong. And it wouldn't that even get it. Yeah, once you get in them systems wrong, that's a problem. It's a problem. Well, it's the government's involved. So that's the end of it.

But we pulled it off. Yeah. We finally got it. Well, and that's the other thing when he's like, I didn't talk to you about Uncle Si. I was like, what did sigh do? Like that stuff was such old news to me. I was like, what did sigh do?

Yeah, what have I done now? You shouldn't have to buy a license, though. There should be an age where it's just like they do it. Well, a military veteran shouldn't have to buy a license, period. Agreed. That's true. Yeah, I'm cool with that. Just go get a card.

Like, whatever it is. Well, it should be, hey, you're covered. Yeah, you should have a hard card. It just says when they pull up on it and say, I'm, you know, proud. You got a military. I say that is your license. I do what I want. Matter of fact, if I was taking, there's some states that you do that.

Yeah, for next to nothing, yeah. Yeah. You just show you ID card. You're good to go. Yeah. But anyway, so that was my interaction with him. But very nice people. So, AGFC, my hat's off to you.

Arkansas issue. They have a commission. Yeah. They had a job. I saw that come up on my phone. I'd puck her up too. Oh, but especially when you're hunting. hunting in Arkansas.

You're like, I'd lose my phone. Yeah, Big Brother was walking. Yeah, I started looking around because, like, on the property I was hunting, I knew, you know, there's this bald eagle that harasses the ducks, and I'm like, what has happened here? Like, what did. Where's that eagle? What did one of us, like, shoot a duck and the eagle was in the background

and somebody's looking at it? Like, I don't even know what has happened. I'll tell you what, old PR, he could pick a game more than out of a crowd. Yeah. One time we were coming out, there was an old fella hanging out the bridge. you know, people fish off that bridge all the time. He's fishing. We drove by him, and Phil said, there he was.

And Jason was like, well, here's who? He said, game board and fed. He's like, that's a redneck fishing off the bridge. Phil says rednecks don't wear round spectacles. No, no, no. He had to be, oh, that's amazing. He didn't think the guy's name, but he wore them. And the next day, we, we, one of the big.

seen the game warning in 20 years. And that guy's the very next day. We see some wood ducks to get up about 500 yards off. And Phil said, there he is. I hope y'all are all legal. And 15 minutes later, he come paddle up in a little boat. And he said, how y'all boys doing? He said, how many, y'all doing good?

And Phil said, you know. You've been out there all morning. Phil said, you've been out to watch it all morning. I mean, we'll kill. Oh, my goodness. Then the guy said, two. And nobody else had a clue. Let me tell you something.

For him to paddle from that bridge to our duck blind. That's not easy. Back in, and it was so thick, Panther can't get through there. So he asked Phil, he said, what's the easiest way out of here? When it was all over, he said, back the way you came from. He said, well, you can't tell me how to. He said, nope. That's a wild.

He got in here, get out. I thought Jason fixed, whooped the, uh, game one. I don't think that turned out in a shot. Hey, look. I don't think I'd have turned out in his favor. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Look, hey, Jason grabbed his, gave him his gun and three shells. Well, the idiot starts slamming shells in it, pointing it at Jace. And Jace grabbed it and said, hey, you stupid idiot.

That's probably not the exact words. No, it was. Yes, it was, too. Gordon Jace. Hey, hey, Jason was hot. I don't like what people. point guns to me. Well, the gun was empty.

But he had the gun, had the shotgun, the muzzle pointed at him. It don't matter. I mean, you never pointed a gun at another human, unless you're ready to pull the trigger. Stupid idiot. But Jason was right. Jason has been known like his uncle to stretch stories.

Add a few words that weren't in the original. He was in it. He'll church it up with the best of them. All right. He said it. He called him. an idiot and I don't blame me. I bet he did if he pointed a gun.

Oh, I'm sure. Hey, I've never liked when people pointed a gun to me. He just grabbed the barrel and said, hey, don't put this gun to me, you idiot. You don't point a gun. No, that's pretty much basic. That's gun safety. That's like the first thing in gun safety.

Yeah, I was once in a, I'm not going to say who's the fault was. Maybe second. Treat every gun as if it's loaded. Or what happened. There was a gun accident. I was sitting with the buddy. He was cleaning a gun. We were inside.

And it was a 22, small gun. And all of a sudden, we're both sitting. sitting there. Payao! And I just go, and he never says anything. He just sits there and goes,

muzzle direction of the utmost importance. And that's all we ever said about it. And there was a hole in the wall. But he was sure when he was cleaning the muzzle wasn't pointed at anything, but that sucker went off. Good thing he wouldn't. Oh, no, no, no. No, no.

Hey, look, worst one I've been involved in. We're down on the creek shooting turtles and snakes. No, no, look. guy's got a pump 22 oh old remington yeah he sticks it in a kid's belly why

stupidity yeah look and pie click click click yeah yeah and Phil does somebody skull drag that kid

I hope no no he didn't get shot but hey guess what Phil grab that gun said hey don't ever point that gun And the guy said, it's unloaded. Phil just, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta, about three shots.

And he had clicked it on him twice. Y'all, that guy turned green. He said, you came this close to killing your friend right then. He should have put that butt. No, no, no. Right now. Pull the old Matt Dillon. Hey, no, no, no.

Look, right now, I've just, every hair on my body was staring up. I remember I'm seeing it just like it was yesterday. Man. He clicked three times on him with it in his belly. And Phil said that's why you don't ever, you don't ever point a gun into a person, you idiot? Muzzle direction. Me and Carter have been talking about gun safety every night.

Uh-oh. Before he even gets one. He's still training, huh? He's still in, we're in the talking stages of training. Oh, it is? Ten. Oh, yeah, it's tough. Oh, it's time.

We waited, but now he watches Duck Dynasty all the time now. He wants to be a duck hunter. So we're going to get it probably... Hey, you know what you call him? Duck boy. He's a duck boy. He can probably run with that crew to be fair. And hey, emphasis in training.

But we talk about it every night before... Because I think for his birthday, we're going to... Carter the Duck Boy. 4-10 it up. Oh, I'm taking that boy, duck hunting.

They're at the beginning watching you if you walk down the road, and then they're at the end at Jeff and Jessica's house staring at you. There's dogs everywhere. Yeah, he just, I mean, he looked around like, I could just see it in his eyes. It's like, he didn't seem that intelligent. No, he's not. No. He's not.

You know, you know how you just look at a dog and you're like, yeah, that one right there ain't much. Yeah. I mean, I've seen them. It ain't up between his eyes. I mean, I used to look at him and it's like, well, the rock rolled that way, the rock rolled that way. Yeah, it ain't, it ain't enough between these ears. I got them too. But your healer was tight.

And then I got the blue healer. That blue healer is a dog. Yeah. Blue healer was cool. That's smartest dog ever been around. I don't think I've ever had a good dog. Every time I bring an ice chest with deer in it, she'll get up on that ice chest and just sit on and look around.

Protecting it. He's like, that's my deer. That's my back strap. Yeah, I was impressed by the blue healer. I mean, I wasn't there but two minutes. She killed a squirrel one time, but I had some friends over. We were sitting on the back porch by a fire, and she'd run by that squirrel and look at everybody else corner of her eye.

And about three minutes later, she'd come back the other way looking at it. She was like, y'all, y'all know y'all want some of this. Yeah. I used to, I used to, I remember as a kid, I remember when you got under, got under your feet or something, I thought it was good grief. We didn't get bit.

Oh, them healers, that's what they bred to do. They nip it, their cattle dogs, Australian cattle dogs. They'll nip, nip the hills of those cows. And look, they get kicked in the head all the time. You're talking about tough. Oh, I just remember as a kid, whenever you'd be driving down the road,

it used to be a thing around here. You don't see them much anymore. But a flat bed, with a gooseneck with a blue healer that he would run from side to side while everybody going down the road. I guess... I was a mountain man.

I get, no, that wasn't him. I mean, that old buddy, that dog took on a personality of his owner, buddy. I'm here to tell you. So Sage, she likes to ride a little scooter around the circle. Around the circle there. But she got to lock up.

Libby, the blue healer. Because if she don't, that blue heater, she's just right on her tail. Just nipping them tape. All the way around that circle. That's funny. But that was one of them core memories for my childhood. Flatbeds with Blue Healer.

And I used to love seeing them. You put that Blue Healer in the rig with you. And she'll sit in the passenger seat just like this. Won't move a muscle. Just like a human. Yep. We got a lot of customers. Some of them old retired guys,

they'll just show up and they'll be them and their blue healer just right there in a passenger seat, just like that. That's why that cartoon is so good, man. Everybody love a Blue Healer. Didn't Mad Max have a boo? Oh, yeah. I think so, yeah. I had one.

I was a kid named Rocco. He didn't make it. It's a bad street for dogs. They rough on sheep and cows. Yeah. They rough on everything. You know, they run them into PN's, yo. And I mean, the dog keeps them hay.

I hadn't found a dog toy that that dog can't tear up. You rip it to shred. Oh, yeah. you're going to have another cat after Sweet Pea? No. That's it. Christine probably get one, though. Sweet Pete got another 45 years.

Don't y'all live together? I catch a lot of problems. You know, Christine said at Al say the same thing about you. Well, no, no. That cat has a lot of problems. I don't mean a lot of problems. That cat's a lot of problems. Oh, boy.

Hunter, we got voicemails? You said we got extra voicemails. Oh, do we? Yeah. Let's go heavy on it. 138-215-6-55-9. Did I get it right finally? I did it.

3-18-21-65-55-9. Leave Uncle Si and crew a voicemail. I don't even know if that was right, by the way, but it was so fast I'm going to pretend it was. I think that is right. I think that is right. I've been working on it. I think I finally got it. 3-18-6-15-25.

Nope. Just messed it all up. Do what Martin said. Go, Hunter. So I want to start on my favorite voicemail. Just right out the gate. It's a two-parter. Okay.

They had to leave two of them? They had to leave two of them. Oh, wow. Okay. What's up, guys? My name's Garrett. I'll give you a second to guess where I'm from. There's no way to guess where Garrett's from.

Anyway, as a man who has been in the hunting accident and walks around with five feet of steel in his face, where are some of the closest calls y'all's had in the duck blind or another kind of hunting situations. Thanks, guys. Oh. What a fun light topic? What did he say? What did he say? He got shot.

That's my favorite. Yeah. got shot at some point. He got steel in his head. Yeah, he got shot. I've never had any close encounters. I had one guy shoot over my head that made me feel that that was too close

and I said, I'm going home at this very moment and just ended everything right then. I don't have been shot with baby guns. Oh, well, we did that in a team. I'm just saying. Shot somebody with the baby. Hey, I'm talking about where mama took a razor. That is razor and just split it and fell out.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, we did that as a kid. Yeah, we had to pop a few of them out of us. Any close calls, Martin? The worst one I ever had was actually my own father, ringing my ears. I mean, like, but it was so close. It just was, I mean, he was really close to clipping me because we were in a pit blind duck hunting. And one of them windy days, and I said kill him through the flaps. And I stood up at 6'4.

He didn't. And he did not at 5'10. So it was just bruised. I mean, but it was like one of them real cold days. You didn't really want to get up and the wind. I get why he sat down, but we should have had a discussion about are we sitting or are we standing? Like, you can shoot sitting down as long as everybody stays sitting down.

Everybody got to sit. But with one up and one down, so it was really poor communication. But, buddy, I mean, it scared him so bad. He never went again after it. And it hurt me so bad. I mean, it was like close to a week before my hearing adjusted. without some kind of ringing or muffledness to it. I've had multiple calls.

Martin saved my life on one of them. Really? Oh, yeah. I was in the decoys. 20 yards. Woody come between him and us. And that old boy grabbed that shotgun and threw up and I just grabbed a shotgun and went like that.

I said, whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing? Is that old boy still around? No. Maybe. I mean, I don't know. He ain't around us, no. Oh, wow. And then I've had multiple shotgun blasts go over right at the top of my head.

Yeah, I saw one this year. Shooting. It happens almost to me almost every year. But the worst one, it wasn't life-threatening. But the worst one, I stood up next to Jace, and ducks were coming on the left. He was to the left of me. And when he shot, that hole came out of the, that shotgun sideways and hit in that brass hit me in my eyeball.

And them things are hotter than you think they are. They're hotter and they're sharper than you think. They got it on film. They laughed. They thought it was the funniest thing they ever saw. But the thing hit me in the eyeball and I went to hollered. I bet you did. I've done that a lot though for people like knocking shotgun barrels out of the way of

close calls. Like Clay, I've done it for him several times. When you do You're keenly aware of all surroundings. Well, when we take people, duck hunting, and that's when that happened. That's when they've happened with Clay.

When you take people, as soon as I have guests, I'm no longer hunting. Like, I am, I'm eyes on whatever's going. I'll call the shot. I'll call the ducks in.

But once that happens, I don't stand up to shoot. I just, I sit there and I watch. And I just, I'm making sure that everybody, around there is as safe. I can't believe, I can't remember who was, it was.

But they actually shot Harold's end of his shotgun. Oh, yeah, that's tight. Yeah. That's, that's crazy. He raised up and swung and actually, you know, he likes to blow the gun out of Harold's hand. I don't know about you, but when I bring guests, I can't mentally raise up and shoot. No, I just can't do it. No, I realize I'm like security at that point.

Like, I'm just sitting back. I can't whatever. Y'all kill them. It's actually good that somebody is doing that. And that's why every hunt I ever gone is with these fellas. Yeah, I just, and if they're not taking me, I'm at home. It's really, honestly, it's one of the reasons I prefer to hunt not in a duck blind.

Yeah. Because the duck blind, while comfortable and convenient, is the most dangerous place of duck hunting. If you're just standing out there in the woods, I can keep them in front of me, and I'm behind them, and everything's good. is good because I can see everything that's happening at that point, you know. Not only that, when you're in a blind, if you don't place your shotgun in a secure manner.

That's why we cut notches. Yeah, it can fall. But it's amazing, even still with the notches. Some people manage to miss them. And you just hear, you hear it coming and you know what it is before the shotgun ever hits the ground. And it's like, you're just like running for your life trying to get away from it. Yeah, which way is it falling from?

wrong which way let me get off the front of this shooting porch because you know it's coming straight down the line oh yeah the safety retreat man yeah you got a dog running back and forth down to shooting porch that's what happened old boy from sterlington his dog stepped on his gun yeah yeah yeah put a loaded gun in the back of the ring yeah yeah yeah be safe out there oh yeah what else is he get make this fun hunter uh do you want to guess where he's from i don't know that that's Arkansas Missouri just going with a place a lot of hunter very plain voice, Indiana. All right.

Starting the next one. Hey, guys. My name is Garrett, and I'm from Lutton, Texas. Texas. There you go. And I walk around with five pieces of steel in my face from a duck hunting accident. So I just wanted to know what were some of y'all's closest calls in the duck line to getting shot?

And how can I use this to pick up girls? Well, you've been shot before. Asked 50 cent, not me? Yeah. Yeah, well, we need somebody with some. some prior knowledge. Yeah, Fitty could tell you. Fitty's made it a bunch.

I did not see that coming. How can I use it to pick up girls? Just tell them you're a gunshot survivor. I don't know. You ought to see the other boy. They shot me in the face. I'm still here. Yeah, I don't know.

That's a tough one. I got nothing. Carter's got a lot of scars on his belly. One we call the gunshot, one we call a knife wound. That's not what it is. Well, I guess it's what knife one probably technically is a knife. It's called a scalpel.

Tell her you're tough. Yeah. I don't know. Zah, you ever tried to pick up a girl with an injury? Nope. You got to pick up women with the gift of the gab. Oh, boy. Oh, boy.

It's an expert. You heard that, Hunter? You start out with something like, Ricky, you fine, queen. Oh, Lord. It's Sheneza, and I'll wait until the end to tell you all where I'm at. My question, I guess, is mainly for Martin and Joddy D. What did?

Why? On God's green earth. Do y'all like Bucky's barbecue? No offense, but does y'all's barbecue suck that bad? Yes. Yes. Unequivocally, yes. Time out.

Stop it. No, stop it. We are from Louisiana. We don't, we're not like, oh, Kansas barbecue, North Carolina, oh, Missouri, oh, we don't do it. Yeah. We're not good at it. Yeah, if it ain't got rice in it, Louisiana falls behind. Yeah, we like good barbecue and Buckees has good barbecue.

barbecue. I'm saying for not having to stop at a restaurant. I've always said it. Like, okay, I'm going down to interstate. I don't want to get off an hour out of my way to go to some place, such as Country Tavern. Country Tavern is better than Bucky's. 100% it is. But it's not convenient for me. So for a convenient barbecue, what's her name, Vanessa? Jennifer. Jennifer. Way off, man. Wow. Jennifer. Man, I really miss that one. Yeah, it's about convenience. convenience in quality versus... It's better than any barbecue we have, though. Yeah, locally that you can go purchase in North Louisiana.

I don't know of one. Yeah. Jackson is pretty good. That's a new one. That's new to the squad. Jacks is pretty good. Yeah, I ain't been there. It's good. So maybe it's not better than Jacks.

That's our top tier. But the rest of them... That's new. Can confirm it is better than all of those here. That brisket taco is pretty dog. go good. Yeah, I don't know what she's talking about. They're uppity people. Barbecue people are uppity. For a gas station?

That's good barbecue. Yeah. There you go. That's fried chicken I ever had came from a gas station. Yeah. Continue. Let's hear upity, Jennifer. It was good, but now since they've expanded out into several different states, it has become literally the grisperty, Texan. Grisliest bottom of the barrel meat I have ever eaten. My aunt actually.

got off an oil rig looking forward to having her first one in many years because they used to be good. Time out. Time out. Time out. Who's aunt works on an oil rig?

I don't know, but she's tough. She's tougher and boat later. She's tough. If she's one woman works on an oil rig. That's what I'm saying. You know best one. And I also... I apologize for calling you up,

but I'm nervous about your whole family now. I also see where Jennifer probably gets her overall lipiness around. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, her aunt works on the oil rig. Yeah, you spend a lot of time of your aunt, didn't you, Jennifer?

Mm-hmm. All right. She was super disappointed. I've given them numerous chances. I've tried them at many different ones. I actually have a Buckees here in town. And I've always been hoping that one day they'll turn it back around. But, oh, my gosh, why?

I am coming at y'all from Texas is it in Newport Victoria Texas New Bromphils Texas New Bromphill's Texas regardless of opinion I love you all

I bet your water slides are better than ours too yeah Jennifer let me just confirm we love you too but isn't it a good thing that Bucky's left Texas no that's part of it I know.

The overarching madness is that they left Texas. Texas pride is a thing that, you know how like we are America, all of the rest of the world's like, why do they wear American flag swimsuits and drink barbecue and Miller Light and on the 4th of July? And they all think we're weirdos.

But that's how the rest of America looks at Texas. Yeah. Yeah, she just mad they left Texas. She probably hates Waterburger now too. Oh, Waterburger. Good. Texas is awesome. I like Texas.

But thank you. And I don't, again, I've never said, it's not like, you know, going to, you know, meat church's place and eating brisket. Like, it ain't that good. But, I mean, it's good. Why is that a thing that?

Why is like Carolina, the Kansas City and Texas all just in a fight over their barbecue? They can be in a fight, but I'm a big fan of Texas barbecue in general. Salt pepper garlic. Don't get out. You can take that Carolina barbecue off the list. Oh, you just made some people sad.

Too much vinegar. Too much vinegar. Too much vinegar. They overdue it with the vinegar. Yeah. I like the vinegar. I love vinegar, but they overdo it. But see, that's the beauty of it is everybody can have their owner.

I just like Texas. I like salt pepper garlic. I like it simple. Showcase the meat. That's what I like about it. Show me your skill set on cooking the meat. Don't dress it up with nothing. A meat.

Yeah. Baskete. Yeah. Just show me what you got. Just smoke the meat, man. That was fun. Oh, yeah, she fired up now. Oh, she was good.

Yeah, she fired. I'd like to meet her, right. Oh, yeah. Hey, upstairs, I'd like to meet her, right. That sounds like your ain't down there would, through that salt in the wound that time. No, no, but, hey. Yeah, she paints people with her toes to.

Oh, here's the thing. Same kind of people. Because all their husbands gets where they worked. Oh, really? All rigs. Yeah, except her ant. Antwer. Okay, so, yeah, you got to be tough.

You've got to be tough to work at the oil field boys. I guarantee you. If you're married to a man that's worked in the oil field, you've got to be tough. I don't know that I've ever met a female oil rig. I mean, not saying that they couldn't, but it's, I need to meet aunt that hates Buckees. I am.

You know, to each their home. You think she did? She said she just got a hold of some bad meat. No, that was. Yeah, that'd be fine. Yeah. And once a while, you know, you come up on, you know, bristly meat.

Hey, look, I've bought briskets from the same place and done of myself. The same, everything, not all cows are created equal. I like that. Not everyone you slice a brisket off of is going to be perfect. Yeah. Like, that's just, that's part of it. Like, you know. Well, a lot of people don't realize you got to dress brisket up when you buy it.

And by dressing it up, I mean, you've got to trim it off. Yeah, but some of them just feels like the cow had a little bit tougher life. No, no, no, I'm just saying, though. Not all deer are created. Some of them taste better than other. Most of it, most of it is in the, in the, preparing the meat to cook it. Okay. That's where about 90% of this, you know, you could, you cut all that gristle out.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I know what you do. I ain't against a little cowboy bubble gum, though. You cook it was on the road. Got a little bark to it. I like that fat ring if it's rendered right. Oh, no.

Oh, yeah. Oh, the bark. Tear your belly up. Yeah. Oh, it'll. This show is good. Honor, we got one more.

Hey, you guys. My name is Dustin Shadl. I don't leave my place where I'm from at the end. I have two quick questions. One. So I've got two kids named Silas and Jace. And I was wondering, how do I keep them from going at each other the way that Silas and Jay's too.

It's too late. And then second, I guess I'd like to ask for some prayers for my mom as we found out last July that she's got stage four lung cancer. Things actually seem to be going relatively decent right now, responding to treatment and whatnot.

So I'm just like a few extra prayers sent her away. My mom's name is Janelle Sarderson. If this gets played on the air, awesome. If not, can you guys please say prayers, I guess, amongst each other? and then if you haven't figured out where I'm from yet, I am from Wisconsin.

Wisconsin or Minnesota? South Dakota. I'm not, he's a foreigner. Like we said, Wisconsin. Where's he from? Northwest, Minnesota. Minnesota. Minnesota.

And today we have a foreigner. He's a foreigner. Well, first off. Dusty mom. And now everybody's heard. heard that. Hey, I don't know if it was your wife that named your sons, but that's why you messed up. Yeah,

second off. You're never going to keep them apart. Yeah, y'all chose that path for them. Yeah, you chose that path. If they named them after this side and that Jace? Yeah. Or is this pure coincidence? No, I had to. And I tell you why me and Jace are like that. I kept him a lot when he was a baby.

Yeah. Okay, so he's got a lot of my mannerism. What happened to Al? how hell has always been the old man of the robinson family there you go no yeah your mom man we will lift her up glad to hear she's responding well to treatment everybody listening we'll ask them to do that they say their name with janelle yeah so yeah we will ask the almighty to personally intervene on our behalf yeah and heal our body is our request to the almighty and we ask you to his son, Jesus, and our Lord and the Savior.

Amen. Amen. Yeah. Well, Dustin, man, y'all keep your mom's head up. Keep fighting. Be there for, do whatever you can do for. And, yeah, good luck with naming your kids, Cy and Jace. Let them have that at each other.

Martin, did you almost name your twin boys, Cy and Jace? Didn't cross the mind? No. No, I'd have been way closer to, like, what a burger. But, um. Oh, my own burger, boy. No, no.

I mean, I love them. I love both of them dearly for two totally different reasons. But I never thought of naming them after them. Well, you're going to send us out of here with, JD? Oh, Luke 531. Jesus answered to them, it is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I've not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

And because of that hope, no sickness can get us down. And Jesus is a great physician. He can heal. Miss Janelle, so we're going to be praying for her. Thank you for tuning into the duck call room. Yeah, keep calling, man. The voicemails are actually fine. Hey, go by Bucky's to get you some good barbecue.

Just Jennifer's Piz. Just drive that knife in. That lippy sucker.
