The following was recorded from inside an ice plunge.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Ah! Woo! Okay. All right. When a core's life is cold enough, the mountains on the can turn blue. So the next time you want a cold lager, cold filter, cold package, Coors Light, just wait until those glorious mountains on the can turn blue. It's easy to say that fast when you're freezing cold.
Starting point is 00:01:00 Well, I can tell you this, guys. Sometimes life just kicks you right in the fucking teeth. And you don't see it coming. It's out of nowhere. Sometimes you just have a really crappy two months and shit just hits you like a ton of bricks and you get punched in the face and punched in the face. And that's kind of been the last basically two months of my life. By the way, I'm Josh.osh hello i know i haven't talked to you guys in a while i haven't done an actual podcast episode for you guys in a while but fuck it i gotta get this thing going because i have high ambitions uh about making this a big deal
Starting point is 00:01:37 and i know that some of you will judge me and say oh i thought it was gonna be a big deal after you got fired from houston and you did that well i did it for like three fucking years. So like, I know a lot of people have called me a podcast quitter and oh, you always give up. Let me tell you something. I went out there for, let's say, I think it was over three years. I think the last time I did, like, like I really was doing episodes of this was at the end of 2022. So it was over three years, but you know, and, and let's, I'll, I'll tell you some stories and fill you in on what's been going on in my life. And then, you know, I'm debating kind of a name change for the pod and that I'm always doing, but, you know, I was in Houston a couple of weeks ago and I really feel that Houston is a place that
Starting point is 00:02:18 could have a giant fucking awesome barstool McAfee sounding podcast that it doesn't have because a lot of the sports media there sucks. The sports radio stations are pretty sterile and homogenized and boring. No offense to those guys, but there's nothing that any of those people are doing that would excite the what's five, six, seven, 8 million people in the Metro area of the Houston to go out and be part of something that doesn't exist there, man. We almost had it a couple of times. We almost had it when we were doing it with Gavin the first time. And we almost had it with me and Jim.
Starting point is 00:02:56 But for all the issues that we had at 790, you know all those stories. But I feel like right now we're sitting here in an era where we could very well be on the precipice of Houston being a place that, well, first of all, we're not even on the precipice of it. It's not the sports epicenter because Houston will never really be the epicenter of the sports universe. But I'll tell you this, you've got damn good baseball. You got a quarterback who's young and awesome with the Texans and they're well-run. Who would
Starting point is 00:03:30 have ever thunk, you know, last time we spoke on here, the Texans were not a well-run organization. Fast forward nearly, I guess, damn near two years. And the Texans are one of the best run organizations. They got a hot ass owner and I'm not even talking about Hannah yet, but they got a hot ass owner. They got smart people running the organization. Uniforms are kind of ugly, but they got the right idea. They're modernizing the franchise. They are well run from top to bottom. They've got great players. So Houston very well could be the epicenter, not necessarily the epicenter of the sports universe, but it can be the hottest it's ever been. Because you rewind 15 years, it was a big deal for the Texans to go nine and seven.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Baseball was bottoming out. Basketball was mid-lane. Now look at where we are when we look at Houston sports. The city continues to grow. The football team has excellent prospects for years and years to come because the football team has a quarterback the baseball team is still in the middle of being the team in baseball certainly one of them top two or three but they're certainly there they're not as well run as they used to be and there's more questions about them than there used to be but they are still there and they are still the freaking astros and basketball ain't that bad. So this is arguably the greatest time ever for Houston sports yet. There's not like, let me ask you guys this, and maybe you guys can reach out
Starting point is 00:04:57 to me on social media and that would be fine. Uh, and I'm hoping by the way, to get this thing going up on F on YouTube. I don't have Facebook. Since we last spoke, I deleted Facebook because I think Facebook is the fucking worst, especially when you're dealing with old ass people that listen to classic rock radio stations who act like they're the nicest people on the planet, but say the most vile shit to you on Facebook. And I'm like, I don't need this fucking shit. I don't need to deal with Grammy and Grampy who are pissed because you're talking a little too much instead of playing nine more Pink Floyd songs you've heard a million times. So I deleted Facebook.
Starting point is 00:05:29 I have Instagram. I have X, Twitter, whatever the hell it's called, and that's what I have. But I'm not going to do Twitch. I know that. I want to do live video. I want to get all that. But I know I don't want to do Twitch anymore because I still don't feel like it's broad enough for people. I want YouTube because people can just tap the app and they're there and
Starting point is 00:05:51 everybody uses YouTube. So my ambition is to be on YouTube where I think we've got like 1500 followers, nothing amazing. But if you don't follow on YouTube, just search the Josh Ennis show and I have a channel there and follow that on YouTube and that would be appreciated. It would be great. Thank you very much. Now, where the hell was I? How did I get off on a tangent on YouTube and assholes on Facebook? But yes, I did delete Facebook because I think Facebook is terrible and it's a good way to avoid family members and people you haven't seen in a long time asking you for money. I don't know if this happened in the time that we haven't done a podcast, but there was a guy I went to school with that I wouldn't even consider myself like friends with.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Like we were, we knew each other. We weren't like best friends or anything like that. And he slid into my Facebook DMS and he was like, all nice. I'm like, Hey, cool, man. Good talking to you. And then just out of the blue asked me for money. I'm like, motherfucker, I haven't talked to you in years. I didn't talk to you when we were in school. Then I get a call from my dad. He's like, you know, Josh, one of your friends reached out to me and it sounds like he's kind of hard up. Maybe you can give him some money. I'm like, no, I'm not going to give him money. Did he try to get money out of you too? He's like, yeah, he tried to get money from me. I'm like, dad, you've never even met this guy. This is not a guy that I hung out with. But anyway, but yeah, so it's been a shitty couple of months across the board, but I have aspirations back to the idea of a Houston podcast.
Starting point is 00:07:17 Like I still feel that I need to be on the radio because I have unfinished business on the radio and I feel like I still have something to prove on the radio and it's nice to get a steady paycheck from a radio station and gives you exposure so there's still value in being on the radio although podcasting is clearly the the thing um you know I'd love to move to Texas um nothing against Philly or anywhere else I've lived if Nashville called and said we have a job I'd certainly move back to Nashville if Philadelphia called said, we have a job, I'd certainly move back to Nashville. If Philadelphia called and said, we have a job, I'd certainly consider that. But I find that highly unlikely. But if that were to happen, rock on. So I'm not against any of these places, but my preferred destination would be Texas, preferably Houston. But that is my ambition in
Starting point is 00:08:01 life is to get back to Houston and be able to have a world where there is this larger than life, fun podcast for sports and pop culture. There's not a radio show in Houston that's doing anything like that. There's nobody doing anything close to what me, Jim and Jilly were doing when we were in Houston the second time around. No one's doing that. And it's an untapped market that I think could be gigantic. People have asked me on Twitter why I think that would be the case. Again, it's a hotbed for sports. It's a growing city.
Starting point is 00:08:32 It's a young, prosperous city. It's a city with fucking money, man. Like people are going to bars. They're spending money. I'm in St. Louis right now. St. Louis is like Mad Max beyond Thunderdome when you go downtown in St. Louis right now. St. Louis is like Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome when you go downtown in St. Louis. It's like a third world country down here. You walk through downtown, you hear, we don't need another hero. I mean, like it is third world post-apocalyptic,
Starting point is 00:09:01 no money in the city. The sports are non-existent. It sucks. And I didn't think that would be the case when I moved here. I moved here with the greatest of intentions and the highest of expectations. And I fully expected it to be a grand success, a homecoming of sorts, because I was born about two hours South of here and my family for most of my life was from there. So I thought it was going to be a grand homecoming. I thought things were going to be spectacular. I thought it was a slam dunk. And as it turns out, it wasn't a fucking slam dunk. You know, not everything works out the way you want things to work out. Sometimes things just don't work. And this just didn't work. And city wise, you know, I just don't work. And city-wise, people have asked me, why don't you try to make something go in St. Louis?
Starting point is 00:09:48 Because honestly, I think St. Louis is a dump and it's a shrinking city and the advertiser dollars aren't in this city. This is just not a place you go if you're looking to grow something. Now, you look at a Houston or a San Antonio or an Austin, any of these cities in Texas that are booming now, some have kind of leveled out and might be, any of these cities in Texas that are booming. Now, some have kind of leveled out and might be going down, but that's where people are going. And I have ties to Houston, lived there for over a decade. I love the place. And I just think that's what's missing. Like I was talking to Meltzer about this when I was in Houston a couple of
Starting point is 00:10:19 weeks ago. I think I was talking with Paul or Bootsy about this too. Who is the person in Houston or the show in Houston that you go, that's the opinion I need to get every day when something big happens in Houston sports? Who is that person that you have to turn to and say, I need their opinion? The reality is that person or persons that show does not exist. It's a whole bunch of the same shit up and down the dial. And I don't mean for that to be offensive to some of the people. I'm not trying to be a dick to those people. Some of them I've actually made amends with. I've been kind of on a tour of just saying, fuck it. I don't want to have beef with so many people anymore.
Starting point is 00:11:00 So I've reached out to certain people and said, Hey, I'm sorry that that shit went South when we were working together. I've said that to a couple people. Um, some, I had already done that, but, um, you know, some, I reached out to, cause these are people I didn't really have any issue with. I was just in a wild headspace for a long time and whatever it is, what it is, but there's nobody in Houston and no media people in Houston. And there's certainly not some big hardcore podcast. I mean, I'm sure there are podcasts that are successful there, but I haven't heard them. I don't know. But in my mind, there's no reason why there couldn't be a podcast that's geared towards
Starting point is 00:11:38 those young 18 to 49 year old people where you're out at bars doing live broadcasts. Like we were at Kobo's queue and Kobo's a killer dude. And we were over at his place when I was in town. And I'm like, you set up a stage in this place and do a live broadcast before an Astros game. That vibe would be immaculate, man. I was across the street from his place at the gigantic woodrows that they put on the old lucky spot. And I'm like, this is the vibe we need, man. We need that world. And I think that could happen. Like if there's one thing that hasn't been done in Houston, crappy sports radio has been done in Houston. AM dinky sports radio has been done in Houston. Some has been done well, some has been done okay. Now it's all a little bit average. And again, I'm not trying to shit
Starting point is 00:12:18 on anybody, but it is like nothing grabs your balls. That's why there's a bunch of AM stations that all fight for a one share. Nothing's grabbing you by the balls and twisting and saying, let's go. And that's why I think that could work. Uh, would I, do I have the guts to go in and make that my day job? Do I have the guts to go in there and say, fuck it, I'm going to burn the boats and let's see what happens. No, I don't have that at this moment. I don't possess that. I guess you would say the, I don't know, just the self confidence to do that. I don't have that right now. I need a job. And currently I'm, you know, I'm looking, I would like to get a job in Texas. You know, I don't care where it is in Texas. Cause I can load up the car and I can drive my ass to Houston
Starting point is 00:13:03 on a Friday and we can do a live broadcast and I can bring out 100, 150 of you jamokes in a second and we can drink beers. Like that's the fun world I want to create, man. That's what I want to do. That's what I have a passion for is being out in front of people and laughing and building an army of people that just want to have a good fucking time without the restraints of doing AM talk radio, man. Like I am getting to a point in my life where I am just getting not sick of getting advice from people because I like getting advice from people. I am a sponge. I will drink it up. You know, I like when people give me ideas about what they think are good if they are people who I think are smart and people like an Andy Bloom, who's given me tons of advice in life or Gavin, who's done that people that I think are very smart people, even people like spike, like he and
Starting point is 00:13:48 I don't talk a ton anymore, but in Philly we've made amends, but like spike people that I think have good ideas. Spike built a hell of a fucking podcast in Philadelphia. And look, if he got fired at WIP tomorrow, would his podcast pay the bills? I don't fucking know. It's a niche podcast about the Sixers, but maybe it could. I try to pick people's brains and I like to learn and I like to be coached and I like people to help me out with shit. That's how I am. So I'm not against the idea of working
Starting point is 00:14:18 for the man or anything like that. If it's someone smart and someone who gets what I'm doing and wants to help. The problem is in this industry, there's a lot of cowards. There's a lot of people that are just kind of hanging on for dear life. I'm not going to tell you who this person was, but I reached out to somebody about a job opening a couple of weeks ago. And look, I'm not God's gift to broadcasting. And I fucked up a lot of shit and I've gotten fired sometimes and I've done dumb shit. And when I talk to people, they're like, remember when you did this, why did you do that? I'm like, I don't know why I fucking did it. Cause I was having fun. And like, I get it. My reputation is that of someone who is, you know, kind of a wild person whose talent is enormous, but can't get out of his own way. I get that from a lot of people. There's
Starting point is 00:15:02 some truth to that. I can give you that. I can acknowledge it. I have some self-awareness when it comes to that. However, I sent out a package to someone for a job opening in a large city, and I'm thinking I could at least get a call back because I've done enough, and this person knows who I am, that I could at least get a little bit of acknowledgement. This, and this is one of the most insulting fucking responses I've ever gotten. And that's when I really, it was that moment. Cause I was in Houston when I got this, this email and I was sitting around with PK and some of you listen to PK's show, this wife, Denise, and they're wonderful. They're some of our best friends. And PK is all on board with doing a podcast thing too, man. Like he's doing his thing, but
Starting point is 00:15:43 he's got the, you know, you talk about the, the ability to do video shit. Like he's brilliant with that. Like, I think it'd be enormous if we combined forces for this. And I'm really like, this is the first time I'm really, really considering it, but we're sitting there and I'm drinking beers and I'm like, fuck it. I'm going to do some market specific content for this job. So I'm not going to tell you where it was. Cause I don't want to out who these people are. Look, growth. But I did some market specific content like, hey, this is what it would sound like if I were on your station. Took the time, went into the extra bedroom, did a couple of segments, emailed them out, sent my package that has all my audio in and everything. And I had read that maybe they were going to do some on-air auditions or try
Starting point is 00:16:25 some other people out to fill the spot. And I was like, listen, I can be there whenever I'll fly myself up there. Just give me a couple of opportunities to be on the air, man. Just give me a chance, man. Like I'll do it. And you know, already you feel like a dick for approaching it like that, you know, cause you're like, geez, I sound pathetic, but okay. I need a job, and it was a pretty, I mean, it was a sizable gig, so I said, fuck it, I'll do this, you know, so I sent it, middle of the night, I get a response, and keep in mind, my email was just, man, give me a shot, let me fill in once or twice, man, if you think it sucks, you think it sucks, but give me a shot, I'm like Tommy Gunn trying to get Rocky to train him in Rocky 5, I'm like bothering him in the streets, come on man i'm hungry just like you like i'm
Starting point is 00:17:10 i'm all that i'm being a fucking dope and what do i get this is the exact response i got on the email we're good that was it just said we're good and i And I'm like, listen, man, I'm not Howard Stern or Rush Limbaugh in the grand scheme of things. I'm a tick on a bull's ass, right? Like I've not done anything, you know, like I've had a nice run. I'm not special by any means. I'm just a, you know, a town to town up and down the dial, Fever with 10 different names on the cup. Johnny Cool, Johnny Duke, Johnny Sunshine, the Johnny Caravella Show on WKRV. I'm hosting a gardening show in Amarillo. That's me, right?
Starting point is 00:17:57 But to get a response, and the response is just, we're good. We're good. I really just wanted to respond and say, go fuck yourself. And then my dander gets up a little bit, and I want to tell them what I really think about their shitty radio station and their boring fucking shows. But I don't because I've grown a little bit, I guess, as a person. I've matured.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Now I just talk shit about them on a podcast. But hey, I didn't tell you who the person was. Told me you just probably would have lit in, gone in on them, and maybe that person will be back, but I don't know. It's a soul-crushing endeavor. When you know you're pretty good at this and you've got enough skins on the wall where you know that not only are you better than some people but you're better than them and you're more accomplished than them and you come with higher regard from other people in the industry than these people do yet these people that make the decisions the suits many of them are afraid of their own fucking shadow and they're just trying to hang on for dear life at this point in this industry.
Starting point is 00:19:05 So they don't want to take any chances. And then you get screwed at the end of it. Yet somehow I'm an addict and I'm always looking for a vein and being on the radio is like my heroine. I just look for it. I tie one off and I say, let's go. And I continue to look for that. I don't know why. I don't know why that matters to me so much, but it does. And I certainly don't want to end my run getting fired and fucking St. Louis, which by the way, here in St. Louis, I did some pretty fucking great radio shows here. Sports-wise, like, you you know what's also interesting is um you know like you think you're gonna go somewhere because you legitimately like the teams in there and you have a tie to the place that the people just automatically like you and that's what i thought
Starting point is 00:19:56 when i came here i'm like all these people are gonna love me like just looking at the sports i'm not even talking about i did sports villains here i'm not even talking about my rock radio job. That'll be a different story for a different day. But when I got here and they had me do some fill-ins on the sports, I was convinced that I was going to be like the prodigal son. Like they were going to look at me as a conquering hero. They were going to come out and say like, Hey, where have you been all of our lives in this boring, milquetoast, just dry sports market?
Starting point is 00:20:33 I thought I was going to be a conquering hero. Like in my mind, this was going to revolutionize sports media in St. Louis. Like it was, let's go, baby, I got it. And I get on there the first day and this is that I filled in. So this was, I guess, sometime in maybe September of last year. Maybe the Cardinals were in the midst of their worst season since I've been alive. And I take aim at Adam Wainwright, who I used to like very much. But for some of you who are not in the area and don't know this story,
Starting point is 00:21:00 Wainwright was abysmal last season. And then he hung on for one more season because he wanted to win 200 games and it was a i mean it was brutal to watch he's out there throwing batting practice most days like like 80 mile an hour fastballs that are getting hammered his era was like seven and a half he was getting crushed but he was able to bounce back for a couple of games and win a couple at the end to get to 200. The second that guy got to 200, he quit and everybody in town was just blowing him for this quest to get to 200 wins, which like no one looks at 200 wins as a, like a true milestone. Like it's cool. You want 200 games. You know, who else has won 200 games? 120 other people. It's not like, you know, you hit 74 other people. It's not like you hit 74 home runs.
Starting point is 00:21:46 It's not like you won 310 games or something or struck out 3,000. You won 200. You made up a goal and held a team and a city and a fan base hostage because you wanted to achieve a personal goal, and nobody was willing to call you out on that. They would have called you out on that in Philadelphia, Boston, New York, and a bunch of other places. But here in Hooterville, they don't do that because you don't dare say anything bad about the baseball team. But I'm thinking, hey, I'm a legit fan. I can say what I want. I'm not just some troll that came into town, some interloper who wrote in to talk shit about a team that I don't even like. I am passionate about the St. Louis Cardinals and have been since I was a boy, since I was a boy of 10 shedding my first sports related tears.
Starting point is 00:22:28 When the Cardinals lost to the Braves in the 96 LCS, blowing a three, one lead. I thought that gave me credibility. It did not. It gave me no credibility with these wackos. They hated me. Now,
Starting point is 00:22:40 in fairness, some of them enjoyed me. I think a lot of them did, but just like the reaction that the radio station would get would be split. You get a lot of positive. The positive were super positive. And the negatives were super negative. And that's kind of what I would get.
Starting point is 00:22:55 But that's how I am. I didn't go in there with the expectations of being hated. I didn't want people to hate me here. When I signed this deal here and left my pretty good job in Nashville, where I was on on multiple radio stations, Detroit, Memphis, I was about to sign a new deal that, look, you talk about digging yourself out of the fucking muck, okay? When I got fired at 790 and I spent 29, I got paid for six months after I got fired. I stopped getting paid in like September of that year from iHeart Um, then I'm out of work, can't find a gig, but then the Rona happens. Then I
Starting point is 00:23:29 end up on unemployment and I end up over at 97 five, but like I was buried, like I was nobody wanted me. And then I heart program director, Jonathan there, they, they, they reached out to me or I forgot how it all went down. I think I told my agent that I saw this opening, thought it would be good. Jonathan listened to some of my stuff, thought it was good. Trust me, I had gone from making the most money I had ever made in my life at 790. And when I accepted this job in 2001 at iHeart in Nashville, I went from making the most money that I'd ever made in my life to the, the least money or the lowest salary I'd had since I moved to Houston to be the third guy on the morning show. And I was 23, but I had to take the job. I called my dad. I'm like, what do you think I should do? He's like, don't be a dipshit, Josh, go take the job. And I had that job for two years and
Starting point is 00:24:26 they were going to offer me a raise. I'm trying to think of how much the raise was doing the math, but like 20 something, 30 something percent, like it was going to get me from where I was to with all my, my total compensation with the other radio stations I was doing, I was going to get into six back into six figures, just base wise. And I'm like, Oh yeah, I've made it. But then this other job,
Starting point is 00:24:49 and I'll tell you that story a different day, but then this one comes around, but I thought this is where it is. This is the dream. This is where I've wanted to live. This is going to be perfect. I'm coming home, man.
Starting point is 00:24:57 This is it. Then I get on the radio doing sports and these people thought I was the fucking devil. Let me tell you a place that they do not handle Reggie Bush penis locker room conversation well St. Louis like this is like the it's just it's like whatever the stodgiest church is and I don't know which one that is I don't know if it's the Catholics the Methodist the Baptist are they're fun right like I don't know church a lot whatever the stododgiest, most boring churches. It's like the Mormon church. It's like, like this town is like the soaking of the sports media world is not an interesting place. And they don't want it
Starting point is 00:25:37 to be interesting. Now there's people I respect here that I think do a good job. You know, there's a kid that does mid days that I've known for a long time on the sports station. I like him. I liked a lot of the people, but the media overall is just, it's not my type of talk. Like I spent time in Philadelphia where you can have the best team in baseball and find something wrong with them in St. Louis. You can have the worst team in baseball and people won't find something wrong with them. It's a weird town, man. But people have asked me, Hey, you're going to stay in St. Louis and try to make a go of it. Fuck. No, I'm not. Second. I get an offer to go do a job somewhere else. My ass is I'm getting on the, I'm getting on the bus, baby. And I'm getting out and actually being here has made me hate my
Starting point is 00:26:19 favorite baseball team, which I didn't think was possible. But by the treatment that I got, I'm not looking for pity, but some of these people have treated me like shit and have said some vile shit. I'll say this Philadelphia. People say some dumb shit and Houston people say some dumb shit. And that's, that happens, but it's these kinds of towns that are like sleepy little towns, like cow towns where you don't think people are going to say fucked up shit. And then they say fucked up shit. Like I would get some messages from listeners here. They, people wanted to fucking murder me. Some guy showed up at a remote to fight me. He walks up to me, throws me double birds.
Starting point is 00:26:57 And I'm like, ah, LOL. And I flipped him off back. Like, I get it. No, he goes, no, you're a piece of shit. And you've ruined the radio station and you need to shut the fuck up. And I fucking got bad. I'm like, fuck you, motherfucker. I'd Bill O'Brien. I'm like, fuck you, motherfucker. And then, I mean, like people here, it's, it's those kinds of places. Kind of like, like you'd see the girl that goes to Catholic school and she'd gone to Bible school or Sunday school. And then like in the summer, it does the vacation Bible study thing with everybody. And you're like, Oh, there does the vacation Bible study thing with everybody. And you're like, Oh, there's no way she's fucking. But it turns out like she's getting sodomized in the back of her boyfriend's car because like, she's just skanky, you know, like you don't
Starting point is 00:27:34 expect it. It's like how, um, it's like, it's, it's like, uh, uh, Sarah Michelle Gellar in cruel intention. She carries herself as some prim proper, whatever. But at the end of the day, she's like the dude's stepsister. Who's trying bang the stepbrother and is doing blow out of a crucifix you know like that's these people here they carry themselves as like hey we're just simple midwest farming types we like pork steaks and baseball and bush beer and we're just good old boys until you fuck with something they like and then all of a sudden they are vile vicious motherfuckers and that's what i experienced here at least the people in philly are just vile vicious motherfuckers all the time that's just
Starting point is 00:28:15 their their demeanor that's just them but i've got plenty of other stories to tell you at some point i'm gonna i'll try to get this thing going every day. I got to get the YouTube channel going. If you don't subscribe to the YouTube channel, start following that because we'll do this live on there. And yeah, so anyway, all that to tell you this, that I do believe
Starting point is 00:28:38 that the biggest thing I can do, the most successful thing I can do, at least what my vision and my goal is, is at some point to be back in Texas, which I consider home. And I think Houston, and maybe it would even grow into being something that's Texas, then maybe it barstools and becomes global. I don't fucking know. But I do know that short term, looking at it from just a micro standpoint, I believe that Houston is prime for something like that that people can latch on to that's theirs. And that does not exist.
Starting point is 00:29:16 And I could see remotes and bars and booze and just frivolity and just dumb shit and sports and all that. PK is on board. He's all about it. So I think it's got a chance. I just got to get my ass back to Texas and we'll see what happens. But I'll share some more stories with you guys here.
Starting point is 00:29:36 Maybe tomorrow. Again, I got nothing going on. I'm unemployed. I am going to the Texans opener in Indianapolis because it's only a three-hour drive from Hooterville. So that's good so we're gonna go and see the opener and watch uh CJ do the damn thing so and we'll get into that too maybe we'll get into some actual stuff uh as well but anyway I know this is kind of rudimentary
Starting point is 00:29:58 it's not very well produced and everything but it's what I got for you right now I just wanted to come in turn on the microphone I just got my podcast feed back today um it's what I got for you right now. I just wanted to come in, turn on the microphone. I just got my podcast feed back today. It's been kind of a process trying to get it with megaphone and it was through my company at the radio station. So I just got it back today. So that's why it's been a delay. I'm not lazy or something. I would have done it earlier, but anyway.
Starting point is 00:30:17 All right. I love you guys. Make sure you subscribe to the YouTube channel because we're going to start doing some stuff on there. If you don't already, I love you. We'll see you.
