Hey, I got a question that. Who is in charge of this Mickey Mouse outfit? Duck Commander? No, I'm talking about this right here. I want to know who to blame. The podcast? Yeah. That'd be your nephew.

No, I'm talking about the one sitting in here. Somebody's in charge of this and sitting at these things we're at right now. The guys behind the cameras? No. You or Martin is in charge of this. Martin. Well, I guess it would probably fall on me. Well, look, right.

Okay. I vote. You done messed up, okay? I'm out. We did the last one, okay? And y'all actually, you messed up and pushed the own button on my brain, okay? And look, this model does not have a off button. I didn't know it had an on. Yeah, it did.

You pushed it, and I've actually been thinking about what I was going to say for this one coming up. Seared years ago. So I've got to give to our listeners. A disclaimer. Uh-oh. We are not to blame for what, if you go and do something stupid after listening to what we talked about. Hey, after all. Hey, and if you're riding horses and sitting in a saddle, you better keep your feet in the stirps and grab the saddle horn because you're in for a wild ride today.

Okay, so for all of y'all out in the Wild West listening to podcasts, we do a podcast podcast. Yeah, good greed. Because I'm a cool cat. Oh, boy. You are that. Oh, man. Here's your warning. You still can't spell stupid without SI.

But anyway. I got him. I got him, boys. I got it. You want me to pop me for you? Look, here's a deal. Just so everybody knows, we give Sy one heck of a hard time. But I'm just going to be honest.

He is one of my top five people on this planet. Oh, me too. Absolutely. And I don't say that just because I work for him. Yeah, well, I don't either. I mean, I don't work for him. I guess technically he works for me, but. Oh, here we go.

But however. I will get you and the other two in here before this podcast is over today. Well, look, I'm not, I'm trying to be nice to you. I'm trying to give you a compliment. I, continue on. Because if you cut your head open, nothing but unicorns and butterflies come out of it. You have no malicious bone in your body, and that I can appreciate. So there's my size.

appreciation for the day. I appreciate that. We got mushy early. Well, I just wanted everybody to know. I can foresee the comments on this thing. Y'all sure do give sigh a hard time. Of course we do. Don't you do that to all your buddies? Whoa, careful. And then he breaks the mind. That's why they put me next to him.

I got excited. We left off saying, what are we going called if we have any listeners? We was going to ask what we're going to call them. I was on the podcast with Phil, Al, and Jace. have something to say about that. I listen to that.

Well, hey, just hold on right now. Okay. I'm going to tell you, as far as I'm concerned, our listeners will be psychic, cool people. No, ain't no fine. Let's vote on it. Let's vote on it. Let's vote on. Raise your hand if you want to go with us. I said, as far as I'm concerned, it's psychic cool people. Okay.

So are you familiar with this noise? Beow, beo, boom. Yeah, that's what happened when I went to the doctor. Hey, look, for our listeners, too, look, I forgot that Gobwin's not here this week. We've got Philip McMillan in here. That's not, me. Thank you very much. Some of you probably recognize the voice from McVillen from the show.

McPhilin. But as we all know, we're very good friends with Phillips. Thank you. Thank you, Martin. I didn't hear John David say anything. Look, I'll say this. Philip, like, basically bankrolled my way through college. Because back then, Philip didn't know how to play poker.

He just knew how to say raised. He was the 401k playing, boys. They were just raised. That's your favorite word. That's really funny, Martin. I can remember all of us. It doesn't sound like you think it's funny. Oh, it's funny.

Oh, it's hilarious. It's funny because he's saying that because he knows he couldn't beat me, but he could probably out strategy me, I guess. But everybody in here was playing at the poker table at Willie's early on. Oh, yeah, back one, like 50 cents. was a bet and we're like oh i yeah buying was 20 dollars yeah and you play all night on 20 bucks yeah you can't even get through the door without a credit app then days are gone so sye so sye used to go busted at the game he'd be the first one there and the first one out sometimes sye sometimes

he'd take every chip at the house remember those days oh i do remember both of those times so when so when sye moved back i don't know if all the listeners know this story but when sire moved back started working for film he he came to my bible study and my house and my house and house and it was willie and i guess jace and al and godwin a lot of you may have even been there i don't remember i was like 12 at the time oh yeah that's probably true he was too young he was in the young so they told me they said you know all these crazy stories about syve i heard them you know for a long time for many years and they said uh listen he's going to come to the bible study but he can't hear real good so you're going to have to really get in front of him and speak loudly and i was like okay

So Si comes over and we start talking and I noticed that he won't let me go. He's like got a stringle hold on me and stays right in front of me everywhere I go. When I move, he moves. And I'm like, what is going on? Finally, they all bust out laughing. They told him that I couldn't see out of one eye and couldn't hear out of one ear. So we're screaming at each other and they told him that I could read lips. So he was trying to walk away from him and I'd grab him and hold him where I could see his lips.

So y'all was quick buddies anyway. Y'all was destined to be buddy. It was hilarious. Oh, that's good stuff. I actually hadn't heard that story. That's fantastic. You had a Bible study no left. Yeah.

Well, I mean, that sounds like this crew, if I've ever heard of it. We kind of linked up there, and, you know, the rest is kind of history. I just been working and go on with Sai everywhere it goes on all these different trips around the world, which I can say, and you said it earlier in the beginning, uh, size one of the best guys I've ever met. He's a great speaker. He,

he has a great faith in, in Christ, and he will give his testimony everywhere we go. Amen. And he also almost got me killed several times. Oh, boy.

What, give me your best one. What's your most memorable sigh, almost killing your stories? If he don't cut me off, I'll start it. He'll, he'll,

see the way he's looking, he's going to finish it. Yeah. So we are in Mississippi, where we're, was it? Pearl River? Yep. Pearl River. He's trying not to cut me out. See that look he's got?

Good job, Sigh. Keep it up. Drink some tea while I tell the story. His wife holds his hands down so he can't talk. That shuts him up automatically when you hold his hands down. Johnny D. Make a note of that. Yeah. Hold his hands for me. Yeah. So we're watching the stickball championship of the world. Okay, this is like the stick ball championship. This is a big deal. And it's down to the final game. Me and Sye are on the big. Weaver Dam's team. That's the team that we went and got on their side. We were cheering for them because Side did an event for these people.

Was it what was it the Chippewa? Chautaw, I think. Chokthaw? Yeah. So we're going out there. They're banging the drum. Boom, boom, boom, boom. And hearing me and Side go walking out with the team.

Well, at halftime, our team's up. So Siam looks at me and says, well, he made me go get him a Mohawk that lights up, by the way. He's out there on the field. He's out there dancing on the field. Boom, boom, boom, boom. He said, Philip, come on, let's go have some fun. I said, doing what? He said, we're going to get in that golf cart

and drive to the other side and mess with the other group, with the fans. I said, I don't think so. He's like, you're on the clock, hop in. So I'm driving Miss Daisy over to the other side. Oh, here he goes. Uh-oh. Look, he jumps out and starts to start. taunting them with this beaver damn shirt on,

they are throwing objects at us both. Look, they're hitting me. You were guilty by associate. Well, you can't hit him. He weighs $120 pounds. No, no, look. I got on to him, and I got to get something going here.

Okay, you got to understand. The Indians used to different tribes used to go to war, and they'd kill each other off. True story. Till they come up with the stickball game. Okay. Look, when we first walked out there, we're lining up. There is 50 ambulances backed up.

50? And I look and said, hey, what's all the amulses for? He said, oh, we'll use every one of them tonight because, hey, look, there's like 30 on each team. Okay, and this is a combination of football, soccer, basketball, boxing, wrestling, anything goes. Rugby. Anything go. Time out. There's no baseball involved?

Yeah, baseball too. Oh, okay. I was wondering because it's all a stick ball. Yeah, no, no. That seemed like the obvious one. Yeah, that's what they throw with. Okay, and look, it's a little bigger than a golf ball, and it's got a little basket on the end of the stick.

Oh, it's lacrosse. Yeah. I'm reading. Look, so look, there are people from 70 to 7 years old out there playing. I know which end of that spectrum you follow. Oh, no, no, look. They're killing each other, so I go over there. I thought you said this stopped them from killing each other.

Well, no, no, because, hey, that's why the hamlets is. There was the hamlets leaving every five minutes, taking somebody that was hurt. That's my bell, p, p, p, p, p, p, but anyway, so, hey, they was throwing cabbage, rotten tomatoes, rotten cucumbers. I got hit with junk, and Philip finally just grabbed me and threw me in the golf cart, and we went back to the other side. I teach you talk trash on it.

But I had such a good times. So this was... It was actually fun. I looked it up. I think he's being honest. Oh, no, no. It was actually fun. Was it?

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So whatever hit me at a moment, that's what I do or say, okay? Yeah, there's nothing... So you said like cucumber and tomato? Well, no, no. I just was talking smack and, hey, next thing I had, boom,

the cat's up side the head. I'd say something at boom, a hot tomato upside the head. I guess they thought you needed to eat. Right, yeah. Hey, must have. I mean, I think it's a little underground, but Google, it's checking out. Everything he's saying is. It was actually a blast.

That's incredible. I enjoyed it. I've never even heard of stick ball, so. Hey, look, on that note, we're going to take our first break of the day. Here we are. Second week of duck season. There's a train coming. What do we do for trains?

Have we thought about that before? Just rock on? Okay. Train. Because, hey, look, I'll say this. For those of you don't know, when we filmed Duck Dynasty here, when that train went by,

what was said, Si? Everybody shut up and wait. Hold for train. I've got, you know what? I would look and think about when you say train.

What's that? I'd go back to my childhood. Okay. We had our yard, you know, had shrubbery with a thing walked through, okay, the shrubbery.

And then the highway, okay, and then the railroad track right across the deal. It was all, kind of hobos getting off the train all the time. Is that how you ended up there? No, no.

So me and Phil, Mama, one morning, woke up, okay, and said, I'm out of milk and bread, go down to the store. So we walked to the store and we run through the gym right there, playing, okay, and there's a guy over laying asleep, and he looked like he's about 100 years old, okay, beard, dirty, filthy, okay? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, you starting to crowd. Hold on, who was it? No, no, no, no.

Look, anyway, we go and get the bread and the milk, come back. We tell Mama, I guess we was white from being scared. We tell Mama about the guy, and she said, hey, go to the back and wake him up gently and bring him home. We said, Mama, he may be a serial killer. She said, hey, you do what I tell you. Go wake that man very gently and you bring him home. Well, as soon as we do that and he gets on the front porch, you know, she's standing there. with the door open and talking about, hey, get in here.

She marches them to the bathroom. I'm talking about, get in there, take him dirty clothes off. Get in that bathtub. Take you a bath. And then when you get through, I'll give you some of my husband's clothes. And then I'm going to, you know, cut your hair and shave you. And then I'm going to feed you. Yeah.

So we're looking at this. You know, man feels scared to death. So she's giving this man the fifth. I'm talking about, you know, she's, you know, cut his hair, makes him take a bag, cuts in their, shaved him, feed them, he ate a pound of bacon, 12 eggs, a whole loaf of bread that we just bought for breakfast, okay?

Then she, here's what she told him. You know, he's getting ready to leave. He's trying to get out of there. She said, here's a name and a number, a address, 30 miles up the road. She said, you report to my brother, FM Hale. Because if you don't, she said, I got Ken Ful

over all these states connected around here for 150 miles. She said, we will hunt you down like a dog. Granny don't play. No, no, hey, Granny don't play. Anyway, he did, and hi, he became the pillar in Vivian, Louisiana. She changed that man's whole life. Pillar. Pillar?

Is that like a mayor? Let me translate. Pillar. You know, that holds up strong stuff like a plantation home? Okay. A pillar. I got you. I didn't know.

I got a question. That's what I got related to trains. I'll go there. My question was what. That's where that came from. I literally was just going to ask what, because about midway through that story, I didn't know what was happening.

We left the train track at about 0.7 seconds into that story. But, hey, if that's what we're mine-side trains, I'm cool with it. Next week. Plains. That week, we're going to discuss planes. Anyway, so we're in the second week of hunting season. right that's right yeah let's get back to duck hunting we just heard the train come back to thudson sigh what's happened in week two

what what are what are you seeing out there the first week it was exceptional okay we averaged like 31 day 23 the other day 25 the next day you know best best first split we've had in five years yeah now the numbers okay dwindling we had a little cold front come through and what ducks that were here they picked up and moved on further down south. They go on. They're down in Mexico now, boys.

And with Arkansas being closed. I mean, there's no pressure up there. The numbers have went down. Plus, I've sat out a couple of days. Anytime I sit out, they don't kill as many. I agree. There's not a shotgun in the blind. Oh, the gun hand is gone.

The gun hand. The gunflinger is missing. I had the pleasure of taking on Monday the Arkansas closer. I had the pleasure of taking a professional bass fisherman duck hunting. That was interesting. His name's Mark Daniels. Loves to duck hunt.

Heck of a fellow. I know, but what kind of gun, shotgun is he? Honesty. He needs some work. Yeah, he needs, he needs a little, okay, he needs a lot of work. But, hey, that's fine. Look, I can shoot a shotgun, but I can't, flip a jig up under a boat dock at 27 feet, you know?

So we all got different skill sets. You know what I'm saying? And hey, hey, that's the deal. Different skill set, boys. Hey, them boys, but let me tell you, the funny part of what happened, and I think we've probably all done this. So we get there, there's five of us, so we can kill 30 ducks. I had a great morning.

Everything, killing ducks, everything's good, everything's nice. Everybody has a good time. We get down and eating one, one duck. Uh-oh. And I look up. And here comes 250 green wingers. You bet you, son. I missed it.

And when I tell you, they come in the plugs, they come right in the decoids. And I just looked at him. I said, good luck killing just one hammer. Yeah, I've heard that story before because Phil done it on one of his videos. Uh-oh, careful. It's Red Dog Phillips. Oh, yeah. Yeah, the only difference is W.E. went 0 for 3.

Oh, Marky Mark. Mark, he got victim to the Benelli boat trip. He had the old, the bolt slipped back. He don't have the new Benelli that won't do that. He got the older model that you can, I mean, I told him, I said, I was messing with him, I told him I did it. But I was like, no, I didn't do that. I don't believe in that trick. But if you rock that boat just a little bit, she won't go off.

So he raised up, there's 250 in front of him. He just, click. And I was like, that's what happens when you throw all them fish back. Y'all go out there and get paid to catch his fish, but he didn't throw them. back you don't even eat them it's a good thing i was not with you that day because if i'd have been there i would have broke the law under the limit oh here you go this is size like we're going to change this from the duck call room to size want to be felon list yeah this is a confessional for sigh yeah right look brought to you by size i'm being honest here being honest here being what

now he's being honest if 250 green wing tilt light in the decoys in front of me He's going to jail. Hey, I'm going to have to ask the Almighty. Hey, you got to forgive me on this, Lord. The Almighty, go forgive you. The judge ain't. I know. That's why, hey, if you do the crime, you've got to do this time, boys.

That's all I can say. So I said he figured it most it's about two, three years sentence. So did y'all end up limiting? I would throw myself on the mercy of the court and the judge. That wouldn't take it wrong. I went insane at that moment. I think he would argue that that happened years ago. Right.

Evidence to back it out. If he'd let me go, that'll be worth it. But they did what Green Wings do, flew around, got broken up into little bunches, and he got him on. And he got him back. But, yeah, I'm telling you, man. It's fun taking a professional at something else

and doing what we do for a living. And, you know, for them, it's just as fun. And for us, it's fun kind of watching the learning curve like watching people he had never had ducks that close to him and he loves duck hunting so he was like that first bunch come in about 10 yards and he said you boys get them things in here close i said i said ain't that the goal yeah he was shaking all over yeah oh it's same deal because everybody everybody thinks we're world-class shots which we're pretty good some of us are our editor is even better and when you get a duck at 10 yards he becomes extremely hard to miss if he is slowed down at 10 yards

he is hard to miss. And especially if you let them light. Uh-oh. And look, wait till they stop swimming. Then shoot them. Sire, you won't ground swap one, will you? In a heartbeat. In a New York second head field would say.

Look, I just wish him things would do like buck deer. When they get out there and get to swimming, if you go, and get them stick that head up, that'd be even better. I've had more fun this year, deer hunting, and I had, what, I've killed one doe. and I missed a little old yearling. I clipped him. I didn't hit him. I clipped him.

All I did was make him, you know, injure him a little bit. A little light injury. Just a little mild gunshot. The other day I was looking at 11. It was five doves and six yearlings. And look, kids will be kids. Because it had rained and there was a lot of mud puddles out there on my food plot. And then, yearling deer.

are not missing a mud puddle. They hit them all. They hit them all. They're jumping and splashing on each other and kicking and jumping and jumping and running back flips and everything. Jumping, snort and farting just being kids. No, no. I laughed for 45 minutes watching.

It was the best deer hunt. I've had for 10 years. It was fun to watch. And then I woke up. No. No. I had a good time. I had a good time.

Plus I've been walking big old young bucks walk away. I had a seven point other day. huge he's going to be a beautiful deal when he's five years old how old is he now he's two two yep check his driver's lesson seven points and he's about 22 inches spread about a 14 each high about a 14 out in front well that ain't near as big as that deer you missed out there is no no hey no yeah that was a deer of a lifetime yeah how big was he 30 inch inside spread 30 inches 30 inches big and big are you just guessing or no no no he measured no I measured it I'm such there and played when I got home.

I played with the type measure about six hours, about 2 o'clock in the morning. I'm still sitting there doing this and tell me, well, I'm sorry, boys. 24 is a groaning, but hey, that ain't him. Kick it on out there 28? No, 30 at the baby, boys, 30 inches. 30 inches inside.

Inside, breath. That's a big. That's a big deal. I mean, that day. They kill one out there at 22. Yeah, that's only eight inches short. Only eight inches short, boy. Which one was that?

George, was that George Jones? Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Oh, George Jones, because I don't need Joe Rockins. He's not having her today, boys. That's what old Burley text them. Oh, Lord, have mercy.

Rubbing it in. Well, hey, look, Cy, I got one more deer hunting story. I think that our listeners need to hear kind of the brief version of it. But you had one get down wind of you when you was in Germany. No, no, I was hunting. row deer in Germany. All those big deer? He never even said where he knows what I'm talking about.

Oh no no look you know I actually taught Americans how to hunt the German way because they've got Germany has got a lot of tradition okay they've got people that play horns to start to hunt you'll stop the hunt all this stuff and then if you shoot something depending on what you shoot you've got to give it what they call last right Like if you shoot a deer, you go over to an oak tree and pick, you know, a limb. Fact check, please.

Yeah. Thank you. Yeah. He got nervous. Well, I didn't understand what he said. Deer's last rights. You put the leaf in his mouth, okay? It's called lights rights.

Okay. I'm interested. But a lot of it's cool. But anyway, I'm in a stand. The Revere owner's right-hand man takes me to the stand. It's called a hawk sit, which is just a high stand. Okay. He dropped me off and I climb up, sit there.

I've been sitting there about 10 minutes, so I fire up a Winston. That's the point I was smoking. Brought to you by. Look, I took a drag and blew it out. When I blew it out, the wind done this. It done a little in the place, you know, place in the seat, done a up, up and down. A loopty loop. Yeah, a loopty loop.

There you go. As soon as it went down, I heard, I thought it was the guy coming back to tell me some. Because somebody, I heard somebody cough, just, uh-huh, you know. So I'm leaning over to see this guy I thought was going to tell me something. And no, it ain't a guy. It's a young, it's a young four-point deer under the stand. So, hey, what I'm going to tell you is secondhand smoke is dangerous. Okay, because the deer drew in the breath and he didn't like it.

He coughed it out. And did he die shortly after that? No, he didn't. Yeah. What's the difference in the row deer? Hey, a big one will weigh 20 pounds. Look, the rabbit in Germany is called a hoss. A rabbit weighs 16 pounds.

So when you hunt deer and rabbit and pig, when you hunt it all, they'll tell you, hey, we're not hunting deer today. Do not shoot my 20-pound deer because he looks about the same size as the rabbit. Rabbit's 16 pounds. Fact check, please. Okay. In Germany, a down deer is laid on its right side with a small branch or oak known as the last bite or der Lezzebiz. He wasn't making that up.

I'm starting to believe everything he said. He did it. Y'all are checking me. But I am checking you. It's the only reason I'm here. Yeah. All right. Here's what.

It's true. It checks out. I told you, we did a disclaimer. Y'all made me think you turned on my head. Okay. I'm actually engaged my brain and thinking. Okay. Now I've fixed to put you all in a spot too.

You've been checking out everything I'm saying. Now, but it's true. I'm asking the three of you. There's a second branch as well. Look here, I want you to give me a 10 word or less phrase that will define your life, John D. 10 words or less that defines your life. Ain't no sense. Well, I don't know.

I'll tell you. what let's let's take a quick break and we'll come back and we'll figure out if we have 10 words or less that describes our life okay i'm gonna need something you'll you'll see later on at the end of the podcast i'm gonna need it the source that's gonna make sense boys trust me side the producer i'd actually give you a hint while we're talking yeah give me a hint okay i think yeah what you got you should come up with the word that i'm looking for in your phrase All right, you want us to... I should come up with...

Is this a riddle? I should come up with the word you are looking for. Yeah. Okay. About life? About your life. That will... That will so-called define your life.

Okay. I thought it was ten words. It's a definition. It's a definition. Yeah. Just to make it short and sweet, okay. Okay. Okay.

This is blah, blah, blah. And then everybody would say, That's very good. Do you want us to stab at it? This is blah, blah, blah. Could you email me this last night to try and think about it? No. Email.

Because hey, I just thought about it. I just thought about it while we go. I'm trying, if somebody's got the 10 words. He thought about this in the middle of it. 10 words or less. I'm going to have to write this out to make sure that I don't go past 10. Oh, you can make it short. To define my life?

To define my life. To define your life. Yeah. I mean, I could go. like total cliche here and whatever you whatever you think and i mean i would honestly when i think of my life i got it i'm a i'm a i'm a three word i mean i again cliche it's blessed beyond measure because i have i don't deserve any of the things that have been granted to me in my life i mean i am a hard worker i do a lot of stuff but the good lord has shown his favor upon my life for sure that's good and there's

There's nothing that I did to earn it or deserve it. That's good. That's good. And I would say just God-fearing, forgiven, repentant, blessed, just all the same things that Justin's saying. Okay. I mean, God's put us in a really good position with his son being our mediator, constantly forgiving us when we blow it.

I mean, what else could you want? Dave. Y'all went really serious. Well, Martin did. I mean, what did you want to do? cholesterol? I don't know. No, no.

10 words. I hope people remember me as a young Cy Robertson. 10 words. Exactly 10. Bing, Ming, Ming,

Ming, Bing. Well, I like it. I like that since y'all had to say, okay, if my head busted open, all that would come out was unicorns and butterflies. I agree.

I don't know if you've been around me. A lot of unicorns, a lot of butterflies. No, no. Because it's pretty cool. Okay, because this will all be,

become clear when we end the podcast okay because I'm going to read something to everyone but hey the word I was looking for is relationship relationship I like it

okay and you said it okay well hey you've been blessed y'all and I've done this from reading something I come up with this from reading something and when you get ready to close out I'm going to read it to the listeners.

So stick around until the end. Well, here's what I'll tell you. That is a producer. I will be honest with you and say if you want a good role model for relationships, size is pretty solid. I mean, he's going on 50 years of marriage. Yeah. That's right.

I've got that coming up in April. Fitty? Yeah. 50 years with that redhead I'm married to, boys. You have tricked Miss Christine for 50 years. Oh, no. Hey, she's mean. She ain't got this red hair for nothing, boys.

She earned it. Is that what she's saying? Yeah. But no, really, she's a love of my life. Guarantee. And I know she just swoons over you. Every morning she wakes up, she sees that back with a little bow in it. She was hard at it.

It took me, look here, it took me 12 hours to convince that woman to marry me. Twelve hours? Yeah, in a restaurant. And look, it's like 4 a.m. in the morning. Was it Waffle House? No. Please tell me in his Waffle House. No, it was just with an Italian restaurant in Massachusetts.

That was open at 4 a.m.? Yeah, because I wouldn't leave. Oh. I told them, quit bother me. I've got a serious discussion going on here. I'm trying to marry this woman, and she hasn't given it yet. Why was she saying she wasn't sure? Well, would you be sure?

She wouldn't do it. She had seen me. No, no, she had seen me with kids. Okay. And doctors, the. experts had said she would never have a child of her own. Oh, okay, thank goodness. And I had told her, I said, hey, look, don't worry about it.

I know somebody. And she said, what do you mean? You know somebody. The best medical experts in the world have told me I've never had a child. I said, yeah, but hey, they ain't the final answer here, little lady. If we meant to have children, we'll have them. And had that work out. And, hey, two miracle babies, my son.

and my daughter with eight grandsons. Guaranteed. All grandsons. All grandsons. Do you think the people that ended up with your daughter from the hospital are still question it? Because you and Christine ended up with a different one. I mean, that. Well, no, that's funny.

Because look, this young lady, my daughter is educated. She got a degree. Have you ever seen size daughter? Texas A&M. Oh, yeah, yeah. Okay, look. I don't know where that comes from. Look beside you.

Because, hey, she's beautiful. Number one. And she's very smart. Okay, which, uh... Again, I hope the family that ended up with yours is... I'm like Martin. I arrest my case, Your Honor. They're getting 95% of the truth somewhere.

Yeah. There's some girl that looks just like Cy Roberts. Hey, no, no, look, her class in high school. She's a teacher. You know, they was talking about Doug Diney one, Duck Dynasty one day. Okay, and look, she said, you know, they said,

well, what did you think, Miss Coburn? She said, well, hey, there's not much to thank, he's my dad. And they all said, you're a bald-faced liar, lady. So, hey, I had to call their school during the day and said,

hello, this is Uncle Sy, Ma I speak to my daughter. Yeah, and had to tell, the class. Okay, this is really Uncle Sy on the phone. Okay, and look, I know why you people said she is a liar because, hey, you know, looking at me and looking at my daughter, I would say the same thing. Yeah, she definitely took after her mama, but she didn't get the red hair.

That's what's funny. That's it. We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back with some more. That's it. Stay tuned. Oh, man, look, let's, aside, what do you think? Have you ever seen the show Tiger King? We have big news, by the way.

We have big news for Tiger King. You've never seen it? Tiger King? Tiger King. Nope. What is he, is there a lion tamer or something or what? Yeah, let's call him, let's call Joe Exotic a Lion tamer. He's a Tiger King, but he actually only just trains lions.

Yeah, and he doesn't really train. Well, I'm telling him, usually when they're a lion timer, he's got tigers and lions in the tag. Oh, he got them all. Wouldn't they have called him the Lion King? Oh, that one's already taken. Oh. Hey, the reason I need to call it the Lion King, that was the movie. Okay.

I heard about that. Trademark rights guy. But I have not, I know nothing about the Tiger King. Well, then never mind, this next story is not going to make much sense to you. But if I told you that somebody taking care of captive lions and tigers lost half of their arm a couple hours ago, would you be surprised? No, I would not. Okay. Would you look, when you get in a cage with a tiger or a line,

Okay, this is one of them, they call them a wild beast of the jungle, okay, and they like to eat things, okay? And look, humans are on the menu. I agree with that. Look, let's just be honest, I don't trust a cat anyway. You got your cat. I don't trust him. 30 pound. 30 pound at least.

Yeah, can't even get up on a kitchen table no more. She's gained 10 pounds and stuff. I had to take him to the vet, and I had to use a broom handle to push his size then to get him in his cage. You could have just bought him a new cage, huh? Well, I had to take him that day. We did get him a new cage. The vet said, hey, you got to put this thing on a diet. Okay, he's got sugar diabetes, number one.

Okay. And he's overweight, so put him on a diet. Those two tend to go ahead. Those two tend to go hand and his hand. We ain't feeding him out. Hey, look, I'm telling you, if that cat could talk, he'd have a psychiatrist, okay. Psychiatrist. A psychiatrist.

Okay. Psychicist. Hey, look. Hey, look, I'm telling you, hey, this cat's got more issues than he's got lives. First of all, it's got nine lives, but he's got more issues than nine. The first thing is his name because they named him Sweet Pete thinking it was a girl. Well, hey, that's it. Look, when they found out it was a boy, they just kept the name.

Sweet Pete. Sweet Pete. You let Sweet Pete get over there on that black walnut ice cream with you or something? No, no, no, no, no. Oh, hey, you're talking about that? Stone cooked me up some wood duck breast rolled in the... Episode two. No, no, real good.

Flashback. Look, had it on the table. I'd only ate five of them. And next time I know, I look at something black that's coming up toward it. I said, whoa, whoa, whoa, get down, sweet Pete. He liked the smell of dirt, son. Does he?

Yeah, oh, yeah. Well, yeah, he likes to chase down anything. He don't have to chase. Just put it up there, drizzle it. Oh, no. The other night, Christine was outside. She sits out there when it's nice in the evening. Yeah, about 10 o'clock.

She opened the door. Uh-oh. He's a time cat. He's proud. He's running that food. Hold on. Here. He's gone.

Yeah. Yo, look. You're going to have more grandbabies for it's all that's done with. Hey, hey, it's 27 degrees out. I said, well, I hope he enjoys it. You know, he's been to freeze his tail off. Y'all look three or four different times before I got in bed. And I said, well, son, sorry, you've got to suck it up.

Hey, the next morning, first night, Christine, because she got her cold on and her cup of tea she makes every morning and walks outside and sit out in the morning. You know, and soon she helped him look there. He sat there. You let me back in, please? He's in there shivering. Oh, you can't, you can't take that prowling out of a cat, Katie.

That's it. That's why I don't trust him. Hey, Tomcat's going to cat around, boys. I guarantee you. I just, me and cats, we ain't there. We, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, it shocks me that you're a cat man. Well, I'm not, I'm not really. How many people?

pets do you have? Oh, no, I've got one. What is it? A cat. You're a cat man. No, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, good, great.

See, I could tell y'all a little story when I was a young, youngster. Please don't. I'm worried where this may go. No, I'm going to have to tell it. I'm worried about it. Okay. Okay. When I was about 14 in high school.

Timeout. Back check. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Brace yourself. No, timeout. Let's stop right there. you were in high school at 14? Yeah, I was in high school.

Back check. That seems like a normal age. For most people, but sigh? I graduated. You didn't get held back for athletics? No, no, no. Okay, no, okay. You're right.

I was 15 when I was 15 when I was a freshman in high school. Okay, there we go. I like that better. That makes me feel good. Well, I just was saying, okay, in high school. I thought they're normal right, but you're right. Yeah, okay. I was 15.

Good deal. But anyway, look, I had a pigeon coop. okay and I had 24 that we had caught and raised and all this then I got one from throwing a flat

flider rock is what I call it and knocking one off the top of the cotton gin look the bad thing well look when I flew it it was about 25 of them together on top of that thing

and here's the rock like artillery round the pigeons are getting real jumpy coming in Well, about when it's two foot from them, they jumped up, bam. One of them gets hit. Look, he comes rolling off the top of that gin.

Okay, I'm like a bird, a dog retriever, okay? I just caught him. Before he hit the ground, I caught him. And something funny looking about him. So I'm looking at this. Yeah, he just got hitting a hem with a rock. Yeah, but look, I looked at it, and guess what it did? It's called a contusion.

No, no, he ain't got a contusion. Look, it hit this pigeon in the head and it twisted his neck 180 degrees. Oh, my goodness. Okay, so look, I'm looking at his chest, but his head, he's looking behind him. Okay, so look, I put this, this, I called him Eagle because he was, he was baldheaded, whitehead. So I named him Eagle. I put him in the chicken coop, of my pigeon coop. so now I've got 25

so hey look me and my brother Phil we took turns feeding these things and watering them so look it was my turn hey Friday morning okay before school

I had to go feed them and put water on but hey uh-oh boys it has been a serious bad night okay because there has been mass murder in the chicken coop

in my pigeon coop okay except except Except for eagle. There is. No, no. Hey, look here.

He saw him behind him. No. Hey. Hey, there is a lone survivor in the pigeon coop. Eagle the pigeon. Eagle, I look, there is blood and dead pigeons everywhere. Except there's one ball white-headed one there. Okay, and I said, you know me in Phil when I said, oh, you're not going to believe what happened.

So he looked at him out there and look, he said, we'll clean up where we've got to go to school. But anyway, I said, on the way to school, I said, I said, this is kind of like Jeremiah Johnson. You remember the old woman, crazy woman that lived up in the canyon? The Indians were scared of her because she was kind of strange. They said she was crazy. I said, that's the only reason they didn't kill Eagle. I said, the cats were like the Indians.

They're scared of people that look different or look strange. I said, that's the reason they left them low. Bad spirits, boys. Oh, my goodness. and there's the story of Eagle the Pigeons. We're going to take one last break. I promise I'm trying to pull it together. That's also in my book, boys.

Psychology 101. Oh, shameless plug. All that story is true except 95%. Okay. Except 95%. All right. All right. Let's take our last break and then we'll get back to some fans.

You don't want to miss what I'm going to read to you, folks. Stay tuned. All right. Now, here's the fun part of the week where both of our fans chimed in after last week. No, I'm kidding. Both? Yeah, both.

We haven't got to email yet. Both sidekick cool people or whatever you decided to call them. That's the reason nobody emailed us because they don't want to be a sidekick cool person. Well, they can't figure out. Am I a sidekick or am I a cool person? I beg your pardon? Or am I a cool kick? I don't know.

You're both. You're all of them. You're my sidekick and you're a cool person. So I'm just going to start with this. the, you know, this guy, Martin. Martin. Martin. Martin's got a good name.

Hey, Martin. J.D. ain't got one yet. But actually, Martin, he says, hey, I'd love to see an episode on tiny homes with your viewpoints. This is a hot topic these days, just a suggestion. I feel like he's taking a shot at me for wanting a bigger bathtub. On a tiny home? Yeah, I don't, because I'm against small bathtubs.

I just don't understand the phenomenon of tiny homes when tents have been around for years. I just don't like cabins, tents. I mean, a tiny home is like, you sleep in the loft. And let's face it, I ain't built for a tiny home. So they really don't make sense for me. None of us are. Yeah, no. Maybe side, but that's more like a clubhouse, you know. I mean, Godwin could make it in a tiny home, but it'd have to be a wide home. It had to be a tiny wide. The Bible says the Lord's house has many rooms. Amen. That's the one I'm going to. Like a double, like a double wide. Maybe a triple. Kick it on out there wider boys. Kick it.

Oh, man. Oh, that's good. Here's a good one, Martin. Bertha Upshaw. I thought Cy Robertson passed away last summer. Is he still alive? Welcome back, Cy. You're back from the dead.

Bertha heard that I was passed away. Remember when everybody told you that you had died and you didn't know? I know. I actually done a little video tournament. Now, the news is. of my death is what overrated you. Overrated. I kind of enjoyed it.

We sold a bunch of t-shirts for your face on it that said, I'm not dead. So I was like, you know, if you want to fake that again, like in 2022, that'd be fantastic. I didn't fake nothing, okay? But can we talk? Someone reported it and it was the erroneous report. I just want to talk, though, about who would have, I mean, there's no better name for our fan than Bertha. Big Bertha.

Callaway driver. I love it. I love the name Bertha. I have since I started playing golf. That's awesome. Bertha, you are appreciated. I'm just letting you know that. And Cy is alive.

And Cy is alive. He's very well. John. Sidekick Bertha. John, yeah. Sidekick Bertha. She could be the president. El Presidente of the fan club, maybe.

Who knows? Hey, we'll see about it. Maybe. So John wants to know who's building the duck calls now. Well, John, I can tell you. you from personal experience this week i was one of the ones building the duck calls now so um you know things have changed around here a little bit i'm now actually the general manager of duck commanders so godwin and jay stone uh you're familiar with godwin you're probably familiar with

stone if you've watched our youtube stuff but and we're going to have stone in this chair too coming up so he is just a um a very bubbly individual he just exudes personality he loves humans yeah he loves Oh yeah, and he loves all human beings. Very loving. That's just a little tongue and cheek. That'll make more sense when you actually meet stone. Me and I have unicorns and butterflies. I don't know what animals are in Stone's head,

but they're like feral cats, wild hogs. And a lot of... And 16-pound rabbits. Landmangers. And a lot of white perch are crappie. And a pigeon with his head turned around backwards, and we named him Eagle. Eagle the pigeon.

That poor thing. I still can't get over that. The lone survivor, boys. That poor thing. He'd been confused his whole life. I'm still confused. I want to happen this episode. So anyway, look, here's the deal.

We appreciate y'all tuning in. If y'all have more comments, things you want us to discuss, be sure and drop us a note at hello, h-E-L-L-O-at duck-callroom.com. Hello at duck-callroom.com. I'm going to give it to sigh for our. parting shot for the week. Sal, you're on. Here's the deal, folks.

I'm still waiting on y'all to come up with what you want to be called. But, hey, here's what I want you to do. Put this in your brain pan, okay, and just think about it. Your Bible has been upside down this entire episode. That's all right. I caught it. All right, we're back. All right, I'm going to read to you from Ecclesiastes.

Okay, and up at the top, here's what it says. everything is meaningless. The words of the teacher, son of David, king in Jerusalem. Meaningless, meaningless, says the teacher. Utterly meaningless. Everything is meaningless. What does man gain from all this labor

at which he toils under the sun? Generations come and generations go. But the earth remains the same forever. The sun rises and the suns sets and then hurries back to where it rises. The wind blows to the south and turns to the north, round and round it goes, every returning on its course. Here's it going for you. All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full. Is the place a stream comes from, there they return again. Here's one. All things are wearisome, more than one can say.

The eye never has enough of sin, nor the ear is full of hearing. What has been will be again. What is being done will be done again. There is nothing new under the sun. Is there anything of what one can say, look, this is something new? It was here already long ago. It was here before our time. there is no remembrance of men of old

and even those who are yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow I the teacher was king over Israel I devoted myself to study and to explore by what was done

who let me see by what was oh okay let me read that again I dream myself to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven. What a heavy burden God has

had on men. I have been seeing all things there are done under the sun. All of them are meaningless a chasing after the wind. What is twisted cannot be straightened. What is lacking cannot be covered. I thought to myself, look, I've grown an increase in wisdom

more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me. I've experienced much of wisdom and knowledge. Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, also of madness and folly, but I learned this. This is a chasing after the wind. For with much wisdom comes much sorrow. the more knowledge, the more grief.

Now I'll leave you with that. You need to check it out. Go read Ecclesiastes chapter 1. And when all is said and heard and everything is done, okay? All of it is meaningless. Okay? And the reason I say this and read this to you, there's a lot of people because of the pandemic that are literally,

I would say going crazy. You know, a lot of people are harming themselves over it. A lot of people are worried all over this stuff. In the great scheme of things, okay, if you go to the end of the book of Ecclesiastes, it says you know the whole duty of man is to fear God and keep his commandments because God is going to bring every deed every hidden deed to light okay whether good or evil okay so hey look just go read this read chapter one and then read the last verse

of chapter 12 and put some common sense in your head and think about it for a while. And with that, folks, hey, see us next time.
