You watched Willie on the Masked.
Did you know that he was on the Masked Singer before?
No, I didn't.
You just watched that show?
Well, no, no, I watched it.
And then when y'all said, okay, well, I kept watching it,
and there was never nothing happening.
And then finally, I've seen the episodes where he was in it.
I just have one major flaw with the Masked singer.
Here it comes.
That was not.
If you name somebody a mallard.
Uh-oh.
He needs to be a mallard.
Otherwise, you should have called him a Woody.
A wood duck.
He was a wood duck.
for crying out loud mass singer people our livelihoods depend on us telling the difference between a mallard and a woody
and the CEO of duck commanders known as mallard dressed as a wood duck now there's it was a fine looking wood duck costume now there's no doubt
i would buy that always been a little bit confused so the fact that he was a mallard or a woody
He knew, though.
He called him out.
No, he did.
He tried to get him.
He was like, no, this isn't a mallard.
I need to be.
The Woody.
Woodrow or something like that.
And they were like, nope.
Yeah.
And so he ended up.
I just can't believe.
Well, he was on the mass sing.
What did he sing?
He's a karaoke legend.
There he is, everybody.
In his mind.
No, he is a karaoke.
I mean, he.
He used to do it on buses, on the school bus.
Here's the deal with Willie.
So did I.
Junk ball.
Jube box hero.
He was the human jukebox hero.
Yeah.
Boom, boom.
Al said they'd give him a quarter and he'd drop it in his collar.
It rolled down to his pocket.
To his sleeve and fall in his pocket.
And he'd sing a song.
And he'd sing Jukebox hero about four.
But here's the deal with that.
He's always been a clown.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
Well, apparently.
He's entertaining.
He's a Woody there.
But now, and like if you go to a karaoke place with Willie,
like he's going to do Love Shack,
and he's going to do something incredible,
and it's going to be really fun.
He's going to do what?
Something incredible as a karaoke person,
but now he's done this,
and he thinks he needs to lead worship on Sundays.
I'm like, eh.
Oh, is that where he's at?
Oh, he thinks he's the best singer in the whole world now.
Do we have a mask for it?
I mean, we need it.
I just don't know how he'd be lying.
I'm like
try it out
just because I think it'd be funny.
My favorite part is now
you can speak candidly
because you don't work for him
no other.
The rest of us
still have to approach this
with kid gloves.
He actually done really good, okay?
And there's a man looking for
a raise in a Christmas box right there.
No, no, no.
No.
He actually was good
with the judges and everything
clowning around, you know,
what he was singing.
What did?
I don't even remember the song.
I just realized.
He did save a horse.
Ride a Cowboy was his first song.
Big and rich.
Okay.
And then he did My House by Flo Rida.
Just really switched it up on him.
Then he did, then after that he did, what was the song?
Something about I fly.
No, no, no.
Play something country.
Oh.
Play something country.
Yeah.
And then he did Fly by Sugar Right.
And I think that's it.
Unless I missed an episode.
That one that got him on mass.
That's the one that cut him was fly by Sugar Ray.
Who to thunk it?
Well, he's not rock.
He's country.
Yeah, he should have saying like Willie Nelson.
It was actually funny, though, because they had it.
The judge's guest, Dog the Bounty Hunter.
Wait, really?
Yeah.
Jason Aldeen.
That is, okay.
Somebody was paid to say that.
That was funny.
That was funny because Willie even said it when he said, when he said,
and all these, I figured everybody knew
was fixed like a lady. He was a friend of
mine, you know.
Name dropper. Yeah. So
and then the other three, I don't remember what
the other three, but the dog was
the bounty owner, because when the
key old that was, tell me he's got a bunch
of kids. And evidently
dog, the bounty hunter, has got a bunch of kids.
I'd have never guessed that.
Yeah.
But it's hard.
And then the best part, all of them had
Emmys and all this crap that had won.
Well, he had Barbara Walters, top 10 people.
Who?
Barbara Walters.
What are you talking about?
That was his acclimate, okay?
We was on the show, the top 10 people.
Oh, the Robertson family was on Barbara Walters top 10.
Yeah.
Oh, really?
Yeah, at some point, maybe.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, we were.
95% of it.
We was.
So they thought he was dog.
Dogged about him.
And Al Dean and then two other or three other ones.
Okay.
How do you think Jason Al Dean feels about that?
Willie laughed about it.
That would hurt my feelings.
I mean, I guess if you're Al Dean,
if one person that hadn't ever heard of,
he looks up Jason Al Dean and likes your music,
you consider it a win.
I guess so.
You know, I don't.
That's the old deal about any,
any press is good press, right?
Any press is good press.
Yeah, yeah.
But Al Dean, but, I mean,
he's been keeping Fox News stirred up for the past couple of
of weeks anyway.
Take it easy.
He don't need no press.
Fox News, baby.
Well, I just wouldn't ever admit to any of my friends or acquaintances that I even
watch that show for five seconds.
What's that?
Mass singer?
Yeah.
He doesn't watch ball playing.
It's funny.
Okay.
And it's actually, they actually have some good time.
I don't see how that ever called on.
Well, karaoke's fun.
I don't know how you karaoke in the mass, but he did.
He did it.
He crushed it.
I'm talking about mature adults.
Are they having like real...
Not Willie?
Well, watch stuff like that.
I just don't get it.
Do they have real singers on there?
No, no.
Oh, so I think I know who's going to win.
I'm not, I don't think I can say.
But I googled it.
I didn't learn this from any backstage stuff.
But I think I know who's going to win.
And yeah, he had no chance.
He's a singer?
When the Queen of Hearts is revealed of who it is,
Willie Robertson had no.
no chance it went in this game.
Well, that was kind of the annoying thing.
She's awesome.
Size talked about her a lot.
Like with Sadie on Dancing with the Stars.
Yeah.
When you have a professional coming there and being a competition,
you either got to be all amateurs or all professionals and then battle it out.
But you can't have one professional in a field full of amateurs.
Like, that ain't right.
Yeah.
So Willie is...
That'd be like us taking you to a shotgun in competition.
There you go.
What?
You ain't going to win.
You would be bad.
I'd beat him.
You're going to get unmatched.
Hey.
Uh-oh.
Yeah.
No, you wouldn't beat it.
You named the figure.
Last time we ended up all skeet, shoot, we were playing that knockout game.
I even beat Stone one round.
You can name, you can name the figure you want to shoot for, buddy.
I would definitely call that a bald-faced lie.
That is not a place.
That happened.
The only thing you can be a-in-you-you-you-not-remember it.
That's one shot, though, if we're playing to 100.
No, not play to 100.
I'm not beating Stone or you.
I'm beating him.
You ain't beating me.
I'm beating you.
I got hand-eye cord.
That old old dog pretty salty now.
You got to watch it.
They make fun of you to us up against me.
I've seen him get on a roll before.
Hey.
No, if he gets on a roll, he can...
You don't want to shoot me for money.
Oh.
Because, hey, I will bust you.
I know what I think.
Jay said you need to retire from a card player.
Hey, Jay's is full of, you know what.
Is it?
What happened to your card playing?
Hey, did he beat the brakes off of you again?
No.
Oh.
I go there to have four.
fun.
Okay.
Not to win.
Jason Robertson don't understand that.
Okay.
If I ever done it for the money, okay,
because like when I leave here and go to other places,
I won second down there in Houston, okay?
And I just was reading on one second,
I got tired to play on the clown,
just said, hey, I'm all in.
Got bored.
Got bored.
That's generally what gets me every time.
Well, no, no, I'm serious.
I get bored.
Yeah.
I've got second place,
I won a little prize.
Big deal.
I play it for fun.
I enjoy the guys I play with.
But not him.
Well, no, they're a bunch of idiots.
Who's idiot?
But they are fun to play with.
No, but that's what I'm saying.
But Jace don't feel that way.
No.
It ain't for fun.
It's towards his budget.
That's it.
It's about the money.
And he don't mind taking it from his uncle.
And he don't mind taking it from anybody.
Well, the way he puts it, he's taking it from evil people.
doing good with it.
So I'm evil.
I'm evil.
Well, I think the boys you all play with.
Is that a rough crowd?
Oh, yeah.
They're real rough.
So he considers himself.
That is according to Jason Robertson.
He considers himself Robin Hood, if you will.
That's it.
He robs the rich and gives to the poor boys.
He never gives me.
He never gets a poor boy.
If you can believe that.
Oh, my goodness gracious.
Well, let's take our first break.
We'll be back right after this.
It's break time.
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.
It's our friend, Cy Robertson, would say,
buy on the grill.
Look, before we got Tritels, getting ready for a cookout, man,
somebody had to run the grocery store, do all the things,
grab whatever was left in case you were late in the day.
And you never really know where that beef comes from.
But with Tritales 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 Tritale's beef.
I know in size case Christine loves it, which is just a, she doesn't eat meat.
She isn't a big meat either, folks.
Yeah.
Just go to Tribalienable.
beef.com slash.
That's trybeef.com slash
support ranch families and eat
some dang good steak.
Okay. All right, we're back.
Look, Stone, I got some sad news.
My big six point died the other day.
He wouldn't buy me.
It wouldn't buy me.
Who killed him?
What happened?
Clay's father-in-law guy.
Oh, just when you think him deer slick
at about four o'clock in the evening,
he went and stuck his head inside of gravity feeder
and got shot right behind the shoulder.
And that was all of it.
That'll do it.
Well.
There ain't no thing.
He was a biggin, and he was proud of him.
And you know what?
We all ate him.
So everybody wins in the end.
And he ain't breeding them more deer.
I show hate he ain't on my wall, though.
That was a daggum big rascal.
Something about those ones that look like him.
They just, those are the ones you like to go after.
Yeah, they're fun to chase.
That's right.
And then he does something stupid like that.
Did he have a name?
All right.
He called him big forky.
I just called him the six.
Big forky.
To me, he was just the six.
That makes hunting a lot of fun when you're going for,
because I experienced that hunting with the Germans.
Yeah.
Okay, you just didn't go shoot a deer.
You didn't go window shopping.
No.
No, you picked one in your hunting.
You had one.
They would tell you, you know, you've got three deer.
You know, start out, year, it opened, you know, you'll have one deer.
everybody's looking for that one deer to shoot.
They make it interesting.
It really does.
Yeah, that's what I like about it.
I pick one and I hunt him, but I ain't hunting him anymore,
so I'm going to have to change my target.
You got another target you're looking at?
No, right now, just Mallard drakes.
All right now, or Woodies or tail.
They're all the same thing.
At this point, it don't matter.
Are these hard green-wing teal?
Yeah.
Which ain't decoying.
Hard-headed rascals.
What are you talking about?
They lit in the decoys.
No, I'm saying out there in the Ricefield.
Them Ricefield Till done got so scared of their own shadow, son.
They just, they swoop you, going 105 and go land out there about 300.
Amen.
And just one swoop.
They won't even circle you.
They're just going to.
Used to, they just bail off in the decoy.
Yeah.
That's for everybody who figured out how good they was to eat.
We don't have made that too popular.
We're going to start telling people they're terrible to eat.
Maybe they'll get off of them.
They are good.
They are the best waterfow.
other than a speckle-belly goose.
Ain't no doubt.
Well, what's been happening down there, Stone?
Well, what's been going on down there in the wood?
We talked with Gobbin a little bit, heard about the new dogs.
Oh, y'all heard about old Drew.
Old Drew.
Terrible.
If you need your duck blind cleaned out, he'll clean it out for you.
Drew's you mean.
I've never seen a dog pick up shotgun holes.
He ain't a litter bug.
Look, he will drop a duck to get a shotgun hole.
Yeah.
Because he did that this morning.
Environmentally.
He's got one, and there's a shell hole.
He grabbed, bit the duck out and grabbed a shell.
Environmental and consulate.
Hey, he's a good mate.
Oh, he'll clean your blind up for you.
He's a good mate.
No shotgun holes are left.
Not good at retrieving ducks.
I don't think he knows what a duck is, be honest with you.
Well, he'll figure it out.
He'll get it figured out.
I hope so.
Or he'll be somebody's lap dog.
That's where it ends up.
That's where you boy, Gimber, sent that thing down here.
Bill said,
Drew, no, no, back.
Of course, you got, the Robbersons aren't known to be good dog handlers.
That's what I told him.
They are.
They are not very.
I would say consistent with the commands and the whistle.
Because a dog, he learns a certain way on a whistle.
They feel like children.
You've got to stick with.
that. Oh yeah. He's consistent. You got to be
consistent. In their mind, the dog
should be proficient at
the English language.
So, hey, dog, go down there
and take a right at that button, Willa,
and go 300 yards,
and there he, that duck ought to be there.
Bring it back. It's like,
I try to explain to that this morning.
The dog does not understand
English.
They're talking about how dumb the dog is.
I used to always get tickle, Phil,
would blow the whistle and the dog would look everywhere trying to find Phil in a mound of
brush and you can't see nothing. So then Jace would get his attention and Jace is telling him to do the
exact opposite of what Phil's trying to get him to do. That dog got there swimming circles because
he's so confused. It was dark this morning. He sent him out there before daylight. They're right at
legal shooting hours. Yeah. And I looked down to shoot ports and Jace, Sy and Phil are all
standing up on the shoot ports doing this, waving their arms. Air traffic control.
way too many chiefs in this duck blind yeah need to get you a hat that's white on the inside yeah white
no they had somebody that they hunted with that white glove and he was out there like that no we didn't hunt with him
he was the dog handler oh the handler he was the handler and the reason he wore white gloves is because
that dog was about 15 years old and he couldn't get in one eye and can't see out of the other one
But the only problem with that, the idiot was standing in front of the blind.
There wasn't no blind.
We were sitting in some smart weed, and he was standing up behind us while we're trying to duck hunting.
Just standing there.
When was this?
Oh, this was like 15 years ago.
He was like on them carriers, the guy out there giving the guys a signal to come in and land.
Oh, we got roped into some trip, and boy, that was just part of that.
trip.
That was a trip to not remember.
That sounds like you mays have been somewhere else.
Yeah.
Is that right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, Jimmy.
All right.
No.
I do have a camouflage hat that's white on the inside for hunting a pit blind when it's
hard to see.
That way the duck can, I mean, that way the dog can see that.
Why not use orange?
Yeah.
Tarn it.
The same reason you wear orange deer hunt.
They can't see blaze orange.
Dogs can't see.
blaze orange. No, that's why you have orange dummies when you're running blind or
trees because you can put a pile of orange dummies out there that you can see, but the dog
can't cheat you. See, learn something new. But they can see white. They can see white. That's why
all the rest of your dummies are white, white and black. They can see white and black really
good. Colors they do not see. Learn something new there. So is it true that the only
color that a deer, white-tailed deer can see, is blue. So they say I'm not one, but I mean, I know
works on dogs with hunter with with bright with blaze orange decoys you pile them up out there and you can send
blind or tree and they can't see it or you can use orange flagging and they can't see the flag and that way
when you're guiding them learning how to handle them yeah doing all that back over you're steering them
to the right direction and then they can't cheat you doing that so well there you go there's your lesson
didn't know that learning something i have a question too why does jace have those two dogs that he has
I didn't know he had, oh, he got big and littleing.
No.
Littleing.
Oh, the two little lap dogs.
Oh.
My son, every time he passed his house calls him those two yippy dogs.
Yippie dogs.
Little white things.
Buddy and hazel.
Buddy and Hayes.
Yeah, why do people own those?
Well, you know, I don't know.
Good question.
What purpose do they serve other than companionship, I guess?
I guess that could be.
Stone used to have one the meanest weenie dogs you ever run across, son.
That thing, when you lived out there off of, well, I mean, he stayed at Gobwin's house most of the time.
What was that dog's name?
I think that was Gobba's dog, wasn't it?
Well, it ended up being Gobind's dog, but it started at yaw's house and then worked its way over into the thunder and herd.
Oh, yeah.
Into the thunder and a herd.
I can't remember that dog.
Yippie dog.
Was your weenie dog?
Oh, yeah.
A dachshund?
Mean little sucks.
Oh, they're good dogs.
I had a couple of them.
Bit me on an ankle several times.
Did you have one name?
Merlin?
Yeah.
Yep.
Hey, guess what got him?
What?
A wizard?
Nope.
A big rattlesnake in Alabama.
Oh.
A big of it.
I'm talking about.
Doe popped old Merlin.
I was out in my garden.
I was out there in my garden, you know, and he got in high weeds, and I heard him when he popped him.
He yelped.
And come around, I said, oh, this is bad.
Yeah.
And somebody asked him, do you go out there and check the weeds for him?
And I said, no.
I said he's done dopeop the dog dummy.
You think I'm going to go out there and get doopop too, you idiot?
Yeah. And look, hey, look, look, the fangs, okay.
About two and a half inches.
He said, no, you idiot?
No, no, apparently.
Yeah.
Merlin took up for the team, boys.
Oh, last thing you will do is go after a snake in the weeds.
Oh, man.
Yeah, I sure.
I'm going to run out there right quick, get bit too.
I'll empty my magazine in them weeds, but I ain't going anywhere near the weeds.
I just got a, I got a question.
I think everybody's wondering.
How in the world do you land on a name Merlin for a dog?
Where did that come from?
That's way better than Drew.
No, no, that would be, that was my lovely wife named that dog.
Oh, okay.
Okay, Merlin, the magician.
Yeah.
So the two pets I know about a size are Merlin and Sweet Pea.
Those are proper pet names, though.
I'm sure one person who had dogs named Todd and Scott.
She called him Sweet Pea, okay.
She was thinking it was a female.
I said, what did you name him Sweet Pea for?
I said, he's a male.
And she said, well, I thought it was a female.
That's way.
Cats are hard to.
Yeah, all the guy was dogs have human names.
Todd, Cal.
Todd, Roger.
He has a dog named Todd, for real?
He did.
See, I had a fireman buddy said, we don't like that.
Yeah.
Because if somebody's outside and a house on fire, they're like, oh, no, Todd's in there, they'll run in.
And try and save them.
And then they find out it's a cat.
It's just a dog.
But like, if you say, oh, no, Rocco, they're like, oh, well, Rocko's, I ain't risked my life for Rock.
This reminds me of a young lady I dated in high school.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, no, we're going to take out that thought.
Hold that thought.
Let's take a break.
We'll be right back.
This young lady you knew in high school or college, whatever it was.
What did that remind you of?
Well, hey, she's a fine little thing.
Okay.
All right.
And she had this little chihuahua.
Okay.
Yippie dog.
No, yeah, a yippie dog.
Okay.
And look, it's about a foot long, maybe.
Okay.
Maybe that high.
Like the doggo bell dog.
It may weigh two pounds if you soak it wet.
Okay.
So every time I would show up, you know, we'd get on the couch or on the porch,
swing or whatever, sit down, I'd be sitting by sweet pee or, you know, sweet thing there.
And she'd be holding that dog.
And, you know, I'd try to put my arm around, and that dog would just, you know.
And she finally, she said, hey, look, you and the dog got to make friends.
And I said, hey, look, me and that dog ain't ever make friends.
You know, she's already grabbed my hand.
And I said, what are you doing?
said, I'm going to put your hand on him.
He won't do a...
I said, that dog's going to bite me, crazy.
I said, that stupid dog will bite me.
I'll pull him my hand back.
She says, hey, no, he won't.
If I've got my hand on your hand, he's not going to bite you.
Well, like an idiot, I listen to her.
You know, as soon as she put my hand on that dog's head,
he just ate my hand up.
I said, put the dog in the pen when I show up.
So she was.
do it five to call her yeah she got called so she chose the chihuahua over she chose the chihuahua and hey she can
have him no sigh chose his flesh over the chihuahua is what happened that's it hey i called her anyway
yeah yeah you got to be leery of a woman with a chihuahua yeah i'll tell you chihuahua are mean
yeah they all they all they all them little dogs but i know i know why because that was back when i was
in a clumsy stage okay and hey
The last thing, a little bitty dog wants somebody that's clumsy walking around them.
Okay, because you accidentally step on their tail,
you know, stuff like that, you know.
When Allison had a little bit of yippy dog as a child,
its demise was a recliner going back.
Oh, no.
That's sad.
We used to have a little rat terrier that eat you up.
He was no friend to anybody.
That little raccoon.
They mean, they got an attitude.
Yeah, they got a little mean streak.
Yeah.
They got a little meansterisk.
Yeah.
And I had two older brothers that had the same problem.
I'm serious.
Which one?
Which one?
Jim Frank and Harold were both mean.
Oh.
So not Tommy or Phil?
No.
No.
No.
But hey, you know.
So you would call them chihuahuas or rat terrier?
Oh, yeah.
But, hey, you got to understand.
Okay.
All of our relatives around there, we had some mean relatives.
Okay.
Hobbs.
And the Hobbs is and the Hales.
Okay.
Jim and Frank and Harold had to, they grew up with them mean, mean ones, okay?
So I guess I.
So they rubbed off on them.
They rubbed off on them.
Hey.
Okay.
Are any of your uncle, they kids still living the one that back in the walls now?
Oh, yeah.
How's that I feel?
Okay.
Okay.
My brother.
You want to get them back?
No.
You want to get your cousin back?
No, I'm not.
No.
Because we got a bucket up on our place at slender.
land full of honeybees.
You could run them right into it.
Oh, we just run them right in.
They'd get ate up, son.
You could have vengeance would be yours, sir.
Oh, no.
No.
That was some of the fondest childhood memories, though.
Or we can wait for it to get real cold,
put some tape over that bucket,
and then I can put that bucket in your truck.
No, that was like you know about that.
By the time your heat kicks on halfway back home.
We're in the woods, we're in the woods,
and we'll look over there and here's this big, big.
a hornet nest.
Just huge.
Okay, well, it's wintertime.
So they're in the ground, supposedly.
Okay, so a guy takes this home,
puts it in his house, okay?
Summertime shows up and he comes home
and just gets eight up.
Hornets?
Yeah, because guess what?
They didn't go into ground.
They were still in there.
Oh.
He come home and, hey, his whole house is full of hornets.
Oh.
And they ate him up.
Burn it with fire.
Oh, no, no.
Well, hey, it's too late.
That was like, hey, if you shoot one with a 22 rifle and they're...
A hornet?
Yeah.
How could you shoot a hornet with a 22?
The nest.
The nest.
Oh.
Look.
This is one of these don't ever do, okay?
Don't ever do this kid.
He was 100 yards in a four-by-four, okay?
and just leaned out and just
katayal
and I mean
soon as the katayal
okay
you know the old katayow
hey he shut that horned nest
and I mean immediately right there
just bayao
do all your guns go katayow
yeah
or kaboom
my curiosity
or kaboom
katayow
so he was 100 yards away
100 yards away
and I'm telling
talking about how it was not one second one second he pulled a trigger pow
I'm gonna do the math he popped him right between the eyes at Hornet
so he's a hundred yards away yeah hey he traveled that whatever it is the
so 0568182 miles yeah I'm I'm doing the math on how fast these Hornets were
hey trust me he's he's you know he's faster than the speed of
sound.
Okay.
That's why you hear all
them sonic booms all the time when the hornet
go flying.
Oh,
oh, Lord,
had mercy.
Oh, man.
One.
I know how that feels,
though, because I had a bumblebee.
Sting me on the nose.
Got you.
Oh, did he ever?
Look, we had
stuff like this.
Out on the barn,
we'd go out and just pop them,
you know, kill them.
Mm-hmm.
I'd knock one down.
down, I didn't kill him.
Bad mood.
Crippled him.
Hey, oh yeah.
I knocked him down as soon as he hit the ground, he jumped up and said,
bang-ow!
You should have used a full choke.
For two weeks, okay, for two weeks I had to walk sideways at school.
I looked like old Jimmy Durandy.
We back on him again.
We're back on Jimmy.
We're never getting off of.
Oh, Jimmy Durrandy.
I had a snoot.
It was like this and that big around.
I couldn't see nothing.
You know.
Look like Rudolph.
Oh, yeah.
Walked around there.
red though. Oh, there you go.
Well, let's take another break. We'll be back right after
this. I think it's 204 miles
per hour. Okay.
Oh, wow.
All right, boy, we're back.
Okay, boys. Johnny D.
What's our fans been out there whacking? Look, it's
holidays, kids been out of school. We got any
updated first. We want to go through that?
Yeah, let's go through some couple of little first.
Okay. Let's start with this
one.
Zach Davis
from Jackson, Tennessee.
He was eight years old.
I'm going to Jackson.
And something weird's happening.
And he shot that old turkey right there.
Hey, shot that big goblin, boy.
Look at him.
Big old goblin.
Hey.
Well, he had a good Thanksgiving meal.
Yeah.
Good work.
Look at it.
Young man.
There's that one.
Yep.
And then this one is a super good story.
The bragging board.
We're going up north a lot today.
from the woods of Hillsdale County, Michigan,
nine-year-old cray
shot this white-tail buck right here.
Look like that.
Oh.
And he shot it like four days ago.
That's awesome.
Look at him.
Hired up, son.
Yeah, yeah.
So, but do you see down at his shoulder?
Yeah, it looks like a pretty good shot.
That's not the shot.
What?
He shot this deer right in the,
the shoulder blade on
October 30th
with a bow didn't get
enough penetration so Buck didn't
die and that buck walked
out in front of this young man again and he said
not today sir this time he had a
rifle yeah and he had old rifle
with him well that's awesome
that is great and dropped that
big rascal congratulations
Craig oh yeah look you can see
on his face
how happy that boy
I am the man that's a big deal
Because you know he was devastated when he couldn't find him first time.
Oh, what are you talking about it?
Did he come back and get him?
I get the same way.
Him and his dad have got the exact opposite hairdo.
Yeah.
They couldn't be any further apart on hairdos if they wanted to be.
I mean, he had to shave that thing this while.
We shouldn't mess with bad.
Oh, don't do that.
We shouldn't mess with bald people.
Hey, I'm one of them.
They don't bother me, none.
If you can mess with bald people.
Yeah, it don't bother me, none.
Well, that's from some people look good.
Ball hit it.
Absolutely.
But he hit him down
450 Bushmaster at 80 yards,
put him down.
That was from...
50 Bushmaster boys.
Oh, Craig and Michigan sent that in about his son.
And then I want to run to Canada.
Canadian.
Because I've never caught a walleye in my life.
A walleye.
My father said that's the best eating fish in the world.
That's good.
And a couple people have sent in their first wall.
Oh, it's good.
He called him out of Lake Powell in Arizona.
But here is Elias's.
This fish so big.
That kid couldn't hold it.
Had to call in dad to hold it.
That's it.
With a thousand miles stare in his eyes.
Oh, he said, look at the camera and he took them for real.
But that's a good looking fish.
That's fantastic.
I kind of want to go walleye fishing.
I have no idea how.
I just want to go walleye eating.
Have you eaten walleye?
Uh-huh.
Is it good?
He's solid.
Yeah, he's solid.
Oh, he's real good.
I don't think I've ever eaten walleye.
I've always said that's the best eating one.
I've always wanted to go walleye fishing with an owl lender.
Oh, big al.
He catches them.
All the lenders.
He catches them.
I'm trying to get this.
They, they, they up there, they're the outdoor legends.
They're the ones, they build, dance, they, Jimmy Houston.
I mean, we've been watching all them all our life.
Yeah, they get them.
They catch them big northern packs, too, big ones.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, they.
I'm about like 60, 70, 80 pounds.
They win.
They get to film a few.
fishing show in the north.
Yep.
Yep.
Or fish are not necessarily smart.
Yeah.
They don't get fish for it, but about four months out of the year.
That was a squirrel.
Squirrel.
You want to see?
Caleb Kraus?
Oops, last name.
We got a first squirrel from Northwest Missouri, a 12-year-old.
That is the biggest squirrel I've ever seen.
That's big old fox squirrels there.
Are those not giant squirrels?
That's probably a bald-faced fox squirrel.
Well, they're bigger than normal ones.
what I tell you about it, you'll learn the further north you go.
The bigger the squirrels get?
All animals.
Body size increases.
Further you get away from the equator.
Really?
Tell us, Mr. Biologists.
Called Bergman's rule, I think, or something like that.
As you go north, the further you get away from the equator, the bigger the body size, period.
That's why these deer down here cap out at about 200, generally, 210 pounds.
You get up there around them big feed cows.
That'll be 300.
You know, big old rascal.
I just thought of a really good joke about people from Wisconsin,
but I'm not going to make it.
No, I'm just kidding.
Wisconsin, we love you.
Stay off of Brett Bilemon.
It'll be all right.
Oh, that was just, well, have you ever noticed,
like, every offensive lineman in the NFL's from Wisconsin?
Or Iowa.
Or Iowa?
Is that they're all farm-raised Bergman rule boys?
Yeah, big old boy.
Look, you learn something here.
See, there you go.
It's because they didn't.
I teach you something if you're not.
smart enough to learn it.
Well, and then my favorite email I got today.
All right.
This is, I'm just going to do this one real quick.
My man, Gary from Longview, email me and said, hey, you know that ice cream you've been
talking about?
The little Debbie Christmas treat cake ice cream?
Boy, I sure do.
I still ain't had.
He said, my Walmart has it.
I'm on my way if we can meet Sai.
So I said, well, yeah, I know where Si sits for a couple hours today, so come on.
In order to get my own ice cream, I sold you out.
But then they went to six Walmarts, and they were sold out again.
They were sold out, boys.
But we did just meet them.
So Gary and Britton, thank you.
They brought us some regular Christmas tree cakes.
They sure did.
I didn't eat two of them.
Have you ate another one for me because I miss them?
No, two's the limit.
I should have had one and a half.
One and a half.
I should have stopped.
I am going to eat that ice cream if we ever find it.
So that's a real thing.
Oh, yeah.
Christmas tree.
Little Debbie ice cream.
Christmas tree cake ice cream.
Yeah,
we mainly talk about that with God,
well,
not you.
Yeah,
because you're our health coach.
He ain't into it,
boys.
He ain't into it.
There's some things you just got to splurge on.
I bet if you took a bite of it,
it'd make you smile.
Maybe so.
I bet it's like Christmas in a tug.
There's,
how old are you to know that?
I know.
There's,
you know,
things that I avoid,
and I would say,
processed food is at the top of the list.
And of course, Johnny Day also avoid any form of ball playing whatsoever.
Ball playing of any kind.
A little Debbie ice cream, Christmas tree cake ice cream just sounds like.
Heaven?
Christmas?
I don't know, man.
I can't get behind that.
He can't get behind the behind.
There's a few things I can get behind in life.
Your old standard vanilla, you know, homemade vanilla ice creams, real good.
Well, say, here's what.
There ain't nothing wrong.
Home made now.
You got something.
But, see, this is just going to be vanilla with like that cake right there crumbled up in.
That's not all crumbled up in it.
We think.
We're really not sure.
I mean, you know.
Hold on.
I'm checking.
I eat more little debbies from November the 10th to December the 25th.
I ain't had one.
Then I do the rest of the year combined.
I wish I would.
Because I like them because they're like a piece of my childhood that comes back.
because when you saw it in, that meant it was hunting season.
You know what you want to hear?
The same thing I kind of smile, like when I drive by McDonald's
and I see the sign that says McRib is back.
I know that means it's hunting season.
I don't eat a McRibb.
You ain't, uh-uh, I'm out.
I'm off that bag.
Okay, well, can I say something?
I'm in on it.
I haven't had any this year because I'm doing right.
What a McRibs?
A McRib's legit.
Really?
Yeah, it's just processed pork, just mashed together and putting sauce.
But you're the main.
Man that scoffs at hoghead cheese.
That's all it is, is processed pork.
McDonald's does a better job.
McDonald's figured that out.
So this morning we were in the duck blind and old burly, he showed up.
Oh, Burley's in town.
Oh, big burl.
And I heard him say, anybody want a honey bun?
And I looked over at Godwin.
Gobin looked at me and he said, I want one, but I ain't going to eat it.
Hey.
I've never been proud of
God, I've never seen him
Turned down a Honeybug
But he did this morning
Well, just so we're clear
He left here with a box of them Christmas tree cakes
Oh, does it?
Yeah, he got the word here
He made that little Christmas tree
Bread and hand them out to everybody
And he got one
And I told Burrell
I said hand me one of them
Did you have a honey bun?
Did you put it over it?
Did you put it over your heater?
No.
I'm about to get this cubie
One no heater this morning.
Well, no heater.
It was below 60.
You didn't have you hit her on?
No. Golly.
That's hard to figure.
I was roughing it, boys.
That's why I was cold when I got here.
None of our Walmarts have the ice cream.
I check.
I'm going to get it delivered.
They never do.
They have it in Farmerville.
If anybody's listening.
The girl I work with that works at the Honey House,
I've offered her $20 if she brings me the ice cream.
It still hasn't happened, and I'm sad.
All right.
Well, let's take our last break.
we'll be back right after this.
What you got?
Yeah, what's in that inbox?
Well, we got a few advice questions.
All right, y'all want to go with kind of hunting question first or a church question first?
Your choices.
Let's go kind of hunting and we'll wrap up with church.
Oh, we'll wrap up with church.
All right, guys, I have a question.
I'm hoping you can answer on air.
I think this could help a lot hunters out there.
This is Dale from Pennsylvania since, uh, whoa, that got weird.
Okay, here it is.
We hunt probably on our own land, he says, uh, which is some of the case I hunt on other
people's land when they let me.
Do any of you have any recommendations on how to ask landowners for permission to hunt
their property?
He goes on to say, he doesn't look like the traditional hunter either.
He's 36, a lot of tattoos, neck's hands, head shaved, big beard.
So he kind of looked like the rough biker type is what I'm gathering.
He thinks it might be off-putting to some farmers and landowners like that,
where he could hunt.
But he tries to go up in jeans and flannel and car heart.
And he tries to offer labor as payment because he's a mechanic.
But he's looking for permission on,
he's looking for advice on how to get permission to hunt other people's property.
That's a tough one.
It is.
Yeah.
That's a good question.
Cash generally goes a long way.
Yeah.
Many talks.
I've done it, but I know, but I've done it before where it's like, look,
you mind if I hunt and if I kill a deer, I'll pay you $200 or I'll split the deer with you.
I'm guessing Pennsylvania, he's probably after deer or turkeys, not, not.
not really a duck hole.
Maybe geese.
Maybe them big old skunk heads.
I don't know.
But, yeah, I mean, you're going to have to, if labor's not working, which a lot of times
labor will work if you're, you know, if that person's in need of it.
But most of the time still, this is America and cash is king.
And, you know, if a lot of times they won't, a lot of them won't even take it.
They just want to know you're willing to pay for it.
They want to know that that is worth something to you.
You know, and then you just be.
up front say look before I come
I will call you or text
you will know every time I enter
and leave your property that way
you're not guessing if this is some trespasser
whatever it's just me
you know another good thing to do
you can get them for super cheap is get like a million
dollar liability insurance policy
so that nothing can be held against them while you're on
their property it's like you can get a million dollar
liability only for like 100 bucks
I mean it's not much
There's a bunch of companies out there that do it for that.
So just, you know, take care of you stuff.
And, you know, I actually talked to a guy into letting me fish on his pond.
There you go.
Okay, because I visited him about three to four days in a row talking to him on his porch.
And I said, hey, I've heard this pond is full of a lot of good fish.
I love the fish, y'all.
And I'll make this deal with you.
And we'll shake hands on it.
If you ever find anything tore up or broke, you call me and I'll come back over and I'll fix it.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
And we had an episode, okay?
I've done this in the wintertime, okay?
And I was thanking, okay, when they get on the beds, okay?
The thing was full of big, big bath.
Okay, so I went up every one day, and it's like you're talking about,
I'd call them and let them know.
Hey, I'm going to fish this evening.
Yeah.
Went over here.
He's not home.
His son is home.
So I catch about a seven and three quarter pound bass.
Big.
Big one.
Yeah.
Well, I made the mistake of showing his son.
Because the next day I'm coming back again because there's about 15 of them on the beds, okay.
I fixed to catch another big one.
He met me at the door cussing me out.
You know, and I said, up, up, up.
what's wrong?
You know?
And he said, you tore up something.
I said, well, okay.
I said, get in the truck.
Show me what I tore up.
And, you know, I'll fix it before I get off your property.
Well, he got to he-hawing around then.
And I said, hey, I shook hands with you
and told you, you find something broke
after I've been on your property.
I'm not leaving your property, sir,
until I fixed what you show me,
just tore up.
Thank you.
He didn't show you, did he?
Yeah.
So he finally just had to crawfish and say,
no, you caught my big bath.
You messed up.
So, hey.
You showed that son, that fish.
No, no.
I said to show the son.
You got a little cocky.
So, yeah, yeah.
So, hey.
So it works both ways, okay.
Like you're talking about, and,
but you got to be, you know,
you got to be willing to take the good with the bag.
Oh, yeah, 100%.
Oh, yeah.
I think going back to the liability thing, that's the major issue these days.
Everybody is sue happy.
Everybody wants to sue.
For over anything.
Oh, it's a cry of shame.
Yeah.
A lot of times, though, if you walk up there with all that stuff lined out, a lot of people say, yes.
And then there's some people that are like, no, I hunt here or, you know, blah, blah, blah, or my family does.
And you just got to respect it and move on.
And, you know, I ask you in next year.
Maybe something will change.
But, you know, you can find access.
It just, you have to knock on a lot of doors to get it.
Keep trying.
Yeah.
10% roll.
Yeah.
Sink or swim.
Worst they going to say is no.
That's true.
And they may say yes.
Yep.
Worst they going to say is no.
All right.
Next one.
Church question.
Y'all want to do it?
Yep.
Uh-oh.
All right.
Avery from Alabama.
Need some advice.
Alabama.
I can't decide on the right church for me and my family.
23, married with two kids.
My father is the preacher at the church I grew up in, and he's currently at.
Been there his whole life.
But there's another church he really likes nearby town.
Kind of different.
He kind of likes it better.
He thinks it's going to be better for his family.
But he doesn't want to let his dad down.
So how do you navigate what happens on Sunday mornings?
And where you go?
Sir, you've come to an expert, not really.
Um, that's a weird one.
Is there a way to do both?
There's a probably.
Yeah.
What time's the service?
Yeah.
Do we have early?
Run both.
Yeah.
Or, you know, and I don't go to church with Sae.
Boom.
That's a weird thing to say.
And I used to.
Uh, but then I found a place that I thought was better for my family.
And guess what?
I have family at this church.
I have family at that church.
I, I, I, if it comes down to the church, you're going to lose.
Because it's going to come down to.
Well, first of all, that building that you're worshipping in is not the church.
Exactly.
Okay.
The church is when the people show up.
And I think one thing I did in my life was I got super confused on I was worshiping church more than I was worshiping Jesus.
For sure.
100% in my life I did that.
And so something you got to be careful of is if you're more worried about the church than Jesus.
Yeah.
Well, and there's, that's a, that's a road that, because church is a good thing, right?
And so then if you go down the path of that, you're going to end up being disappointed because every church you're going to find flaws.
You're going to find flaws if you go to Phil Robertson's church.
Boy, yeah.
You're going to find, yeah, exactly.
But people, people want to find this perfect church.
And let me just tell you.
There's no such thing.
If you go listen to Al on Sunday, it ain't perfect.
You go listen to my man Tom that I go to on Sunday.
it ain't perfect.
You go listen to Phil on Sunday.
It ain't perfect.
To this guy.
Al does tell good preacher jokes.
Oh, Al got some preacher jokes now.
And I'll say this.
And if, you know, your dad might be disappointed that you want to go somewhere else,
but he's still going to love you.
He's going to understand.
And when I started here, I went to my grandfather's church where he preached at.
My whole life, that's where I went.
But it got stale for me.
So I had to have a change of scenery.
He respected that decision
And he's my grandfather.
Like, yeah, I get it, no problem.
You know, whatever.
Go where you can grow.
Exactly.
Was his attitude.
And if it's not here, it's not here.
You know, but I still went back from time to time.
I mean, I didn't just completely bail on it.
But as far as every day and all that and getting plugged in,
I got plugged into another place.
And, you know, so I think, I mean, I think your dad would be totally fine with it.
It'll probably hurt.
a smidge to him, but at the same time, if he opens that good book and realizes that you too
have to be the spiritual leader of your home and your family, then he should respect your decision
and move on. And maybe what he'll do is come visit that church and see if there's some things he
can't do it. He may figure out why you like that one over the other one, maybe, you know, being 23
could actually help him. Yeah, could actually help that church out too. So I mean, there's,
I think nothing but really and truly positive will end up coming.
coming out of it.
Well, and the coolest churches I've ever.
But don't like sneak to another church and not tell your dad.
Again, honest, open communication.
And the coolest churches I've ever been to are super close with other churches in town that work together.
You know, and there's this weird thing in America where I don't know when denomination started.
I'm not trying to get into all that because that's just an awful place to go for me.
But it's one of those things like we're all on the same team.
Whatever church you're going to, if they believe Jesus was born, died and rose again,
we're all teammates here.
And so like let's all find where we fit in on that team and charge forward.
Work together.
Stop arguing.
Yeah.
That's my advice.
Do not be divided.
Love it.
So yeah, pick the church that's best for you and, you know, talk to your family.
And you'll be surprised at how many people,
like those,
you'll be like so nervous about those old people at that church
that you,
or people at your old church,
you'll be like,
oh, no,
they're going to be mad.
They're not.
They're going to wish you nothing but the best.
And then they'll forget who you are two years later.
And they might forget who you are two years later.
But anyways,
I got a Bible verse to wrap up.
Acts chapter 10.
I lost the verse now.
Where did it go?
1013.
10.13.
They knew what it was.
They're 17, 26.
Either one.
Well, I'm looking at chapter 10.
So 1013, then a voice told him, get up, Peter, kill, and eat.
It's hunting season.
That's just a good verse to live by.
Arise, kill and eat.
I wonder what time it was.
Don't matter.
About noon.
It actually says that.
Oh, really?
About noon the following day.
Arise.
It was a full of moon.
It was lunch.
time, baby.
We're moving on a full move, boys.
They were flying on a full moon.
We're out, boys.
We'll see y'all next time, right?
Hey, all.
