- 1:45I really, really do. Thanks for jumping in here with
- 1:48me tonight. First of all, I think we've got
- 1:52to get to a little business news here off the top of the, the
- 1:56whole show. The Tigs.
- 1:59I've kind of even remember my own name.
- 2:01That's terrible. Tigs Wigs HQ.
- 2:04Tigs Wigs HQ is our private group on Facebook and it's up to
- 2:09like 315 members or something like that.
- 2:12I mean, we, we had about two 5260, something like that when
- 2:16this started. Biggie Terry, they're in there.
- 2:21Paul the Handler myself, we're all admins in this thing and
- 2:26starting to pump in some content and I was just checking it out
- 2:29man. Y'all thought that I may not
- 2:32answer stuff very fast, but just just the the notifications
- 2:37anytime I pull up Facebook, it's just loaded and like Lord, this
- 2:42is going to be a lot to keep up with.
- 2:43But part of it is it because that's what you guys are doing.
- 2:46That's what I've got y'all for over there, so I appreciate it.
- 2:50It's going to be a lot of fun. In fact, I got a call today, a
- 2:54good friend of mine. He's like, hey man, what's this
- 2:56Tigs wigs HQ thing? Somebody, somebody copied your
- 3:01account. Somebody is this fake?
- 3:02What what is this? I went Nah, man, it's just been
- 3:05a it's just been a private group that I made whenever I first
- 3:08made the Facebook page posted in in a little bit and I'm like,
- 3:12why would I post on that page? I should just post on my main
- 3:14page now. I totally get it.
- 3:16It's a lot more fun in the group.
- 3:18You can cut up people actually see what you post.
- 3:21It's not lost really in the algorithm.
- 3:24I get it. I totally get group.
- 3:25So if you haven't joined, go to Tigs Bits on Facebook, go to the
- 3:31Tigs Wigs HQ. You can find that link in the
- 3:34Tigs Bits page. I am sure Biggie knows what he's
- 3:37doing. Y'all keep inviting people,
- 3:39bringing them in. It's going to be some of these
- 3:42folks. I don't know, but I can tell
- 3:44y'all know and it sounds it's fun, so it's going to be fun.
- 3:47We're going to keep it relatively clean.
- 3:49That's all that I say that's all that I ask and we're going to be
- 3:53just fine. We're going to be just fine.
- 3:56Oh let's see we got we got Mr. Bubba fan 69 in the house.
- 4:02Howard Stern searches for missing children.
- 4:05No, I could see how you could do that.
- 4:07That's hilarious. No, and I'm going to show that
- 4:09video here in just in just a minute.
- 4:11We're going to we'll dive into that.
- 4:15Oh yes, Terry, thank you. Thank you for the reminder.
- 4:18Most importantly, most importantly, if anybody who goes
- 4:23in tries to become a member, just answer the questions.
- 4:25They're easy and agree to the rules, which are your standard
- 4:29rules. It just, what that does is it is
- 4:33it allows us to know that there's a, it's an actual
- 4:36person, not a bot and not a troll.
- 4:40And it just kind of helps to keep things it, it'll keep it
- 4:42it's, it will limit how fast it can grow and how big it can
- 4:46grow. But ultimately, I don't care how
- 4:48big it gets. If we've just got constant
- 4:51people talking, engaging. I want to be able to use it as a
- 4:54little reference for things that we will talk about on Tigs
- 4:57tonight as well. And Big E is got it correct.
- 5:01This is why he's he is the man and the admin rule #1 don't be a
- 5:06Dick. Pretty simple.
- 5:08It's pretty simple. But I'm sure it will get tested.
- 5:11I am sure it will get tested. But anyhow, appreciate y'all
- 5:16appreciate y'all helping with that and, and all of that stuff
- 5:19man, it's going to be a lot of fun.
- 5:21It's going to be a lot of fun growing that and just seeing a
- 5:24kind of seeing where where it goes.
- 5:27And yes, Biggie says even I have to refrain from it and I will as
- 5:31well because I feel already I feel like it's a little more of
- 5:37a home where I can say where I what I want to say and just kind
- 5:41of, you know, I mean, we're not there.
- 5:42I haven't done it, but I feel like it's it's the equivalent of
- 5:45Facebook Twitter in a way. Being Twitter is just so dadgum
- 5:49hard to grow a show, especially like what we're doing, unless
- 5:54I'm just going to bash people and be on there all day long and
- 5:58all that. It's just honestly, we're going
- 6:00to spend our time, I'm going to spend my time more on Facebook,
- 6:04YouTube and Instagram and, and, and I still love Twitter, all of
- 6:10the stuff that we show on the show.
- 6:12Twitter is my favorite as far as my favorite social media
- 6:14platform. But as far as growing the show
- 6:17and everything that we can do, we're going to roll like like
- 6:20that. That's kind of just where we
- 6:21where we've gotten. But anyhow, I wanted to I want
- 6:26to show you guys this video and I've got to give credit where
- 6:30credit is due. My neighbor TJ appreciate him so
- 6:34much. I I've filmed this back in
- 6:37September, I believe it was in September and got a lot of B
- 6:41roll and all this stuff and I've been putting it together, but I
- 6:45just wasn't real happy with the way it was going.
- 6:47I was just, I just it was flat. It was like I just couldn't make
- 6:52this like I wanted to do it. Well, he does this for a living,
- 6:55so he, he was like, man, just give it to me and I'll do it.
- 6:58So he, he put all of this together.
- 7:01It feels like I could, I learned this is a template.
- 7:04Hopefully for me, hopefully I can replicate this even a little
- 7:08bit. It feels like a news broadcast
- 7:10when I'm watching, I'm like, Oh my God, sound like a news
- 7:13reporter on this whole deal. He really did a great job.
- 7:16But more so than that, he I'm going to let Harold explain
- 7:20everything. I think he does it pretty well
- 7:23and and y'all watch this and we'll, we'll talk about it.
- 7:27I, I am here today with Mr. Harold Laird with the child
- 7:30Rescue network. Man, I've never been inside a
- 7:34hauler, a truck, a transport, whatever you want to call it.
- 7:37I've always wanted to be in one of these things.
- 7:39So it's kind of like a dream come true.
- 7:41It has air conditioning, there's a bathroom, it has TV's.
- 7:45You know, we're going to look at the race car.
- 7:47What you have here with this child rescue network.
- 7:50Tell us a little bit more about this map and that what we're
- 7:54kind of looking at and how it works.
- 7:56Well, what we do is, is once we load up and we get ready for
- 7:59each national event, we have a connection with National Missing
- 8:02Children's Center and they let us know who's missing and we
- 8:06give them the perimeter. It's a 200 mile radius.
- 8:09So when we're racing in Dallas, Fort Worth, that's going to
- 8:12catch Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana, we take the the back
- 8:16of the trailer and we put one on the left, one on the right, two
- 8:19on the back gate and it's 13 foot 6 and high.
- 8:22So it's got a lot of area to cover.
- 8:25So when we put the graphics as big as we can, sometimes the the
- 8:28height of you and we illustrate their where they're from, the
- 8:34date of abduction. You can see this right here.
- 8:38These are what's all over the truck.
- 8:39This is what we're trying to implement out there as we go to
- 8:42each destination and each national event.
- 8:45How did this come about? Back in 2007, I won
- 8:48Indianapolis, which is the US Nationals.
- 8:50It's the Holy Grail of the racing that we do.
- 8:53Then the state of Louisiana wanted to interview me for my
- 8:56success and they said, hey, we would like you to represent us
- 8:59and find and miss the children. It went from Grand Baton Rouge
- 9:03to Grand Rapids, MI. So each team had a performance
- 9:06car and they would take a 18 by 18 graphic and put on each side
- 9:10of the car. The Discovery Channel people and
- 9:12the producers, what they put this interactive game together
- 9:15called the Fireball Run. OK.
- 9:17What they did is they used iconic marquees in each city
- 9:20that we travel through and they did all this back and forth
- 9:22looking for all these these different icons and things like
- 9:25that. And with all that interaction,
- 9:27it brought attention and awareness to the kids that were
- 9:29on the side of the car. So I think it's around 160,000
- 9:33people that's that that go to these events.
- 9:36So it's a lot. That's a lot of.
- 9:38Eyes. And that's not counting the the
- 9:40television. This is something that the fans
- 9:42take and they take them by the thousands.
- 9:44This is how we get the message out.
- 9:46Yeah. OK, So the QR code is there for
- 9:48you to hit that with your camera, gives you information,
- 9:50brings you straight to the site. These graphics are big.
- 9:54They're almost 4 foot by 4 foot. And we also have a big one on
- 9:57the side of the rig that you can go and it brings you straight
- 10:00into the website of Child Rescue Network.
- 10:03It's phenomenal. It is, man.
- 10:04It's. Just phenomenal the vision and
- 10:06the illumination that this is going to bring with what we do,
- 10:09and there's nobody else out there doing.
- 10:11This. No, I've never heard of anybody
- 10:13doing anything like this. I think it's amazing.
- 10:15What is the website address? Www.childrescuenet.org.
- 10:22Www.childrescuenet.org Go there and maybe you can help.
- 10:27Maybe you've seen something. Don't hesitate to reach out to
- 10:30anybody if you think there's something that you've seen and
- 10:34get involved and go see this man.
- 10:36Race best kept secret in Baton Rouge.
- 10:39Harold Laird, ladies and gentlemen.
- 10:40It is a fantastic cause with what he's doing.
- 10:44And it it was, it was really cool to, to get to go in that
- 10:48hauler. There's a lot more that was a
- 10:51that I, I was there probably 2 hours or so.
- 10:55I think I have about an hour of footage.
- 10:57A lot of keep pulled that that car out of the out of the
- 11:01trailer and lowered it. We never cranked it or anything
- 11:05of course, but at least got to got to see it super cool car,
- 11:09super cool cool dude and a great great call.
- 11:13So y'all go check that out and and we're going to try to get
- 11:16more of that I'll be posting that video most likely tomorrow
- 11:20everywhere on all of the socials.
- 11:22So share it, please. Let's really, really help to get
- 11:26the word out because the biggest thing that can happen in
- 11:29something like like that is, is attention.
- 11:32And he told, he goes on and he told me stories.
- 11:35I can't remember if they were on or off camera of a lot of the
- 11:38success stories. There weren't a ton.
- 11:41But that Cannonball Run thing that he was talking about, that
- 11:45was back when he won Discovery Channel and all that, put this
- 11:49in now they were put pumping in a lot of money like they would
- 11:51go to Dallas or whatever. They were bringing in a
- 11:54significant amount of money into each town, putting billboards
- 11:58up, doing stuff like that to really, really, you know, be be
- 12:01getting as much awareness out in a place and then bring these TV
- 12:05crews and all that stuff. He's not able to do it on a
- 12:07scale that big anymore, but it's still what an amazing thing to
- 12:12do. Kudos to him for doing it.
- 12:16And I do believe that the season has started.
- 12:19I'm pretty sure it was starting here at the end of January or
- 12:21right now. So he's this is all kind of
- 12:24kicking off for him. So yes, it was been wanting to
- 12:28get that video out for quite a while.
- 12:30Thank you again, TJ, for that. And yeah, Brian says it's a
- 12:35great 'cause that he's doing. It really is, Paul.
- 12:39Same thing, Paul. I thought it was Hal Laird.
- 12:42It's funny you say that. I showed this.
- 12:45I showed that video to my son. I showed it to Riley this
- 12:48afternoon and he thought it said Hal Laird as well.
- 12:51He's like, don't I know Hal Laird or yeah, you know Hal
- 12:55Laird. He's the guy who broke the
- 12:56record with cornhole toss Riley and his sons Murphy.
- 13:00Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
- 13:02That's it. And then I thought I'd heard at
- 13:04the end of that video where where I where I said it again.
- 13:07The best kept secret secret. Harold Laird.
- 13:10I thought I said how Laird too started questioning everything.
- 13:13Anyhow, yes, yes, very cool. Terry says super cool rig really
- 13:19was really, really neat. And Terry says typical windows.
- 13:23Yeah, it it is. It's only the second time in 180
- 13:27something podcast that that's actually happened.
- 13:30And I literally thought about it today.
- 13:32I was like, I've been doing a lot of editing and opening stuff
- 13:36and haven't turned this thing off.
- 13:38And every now and then, as you know, Terry, you just need to
- 13:41give it a little reset just so it's fresh and rocking and
- 13:44rolling. I'll do that next time.
- 13:47I will start doing that. All right, moving along, I threw
- 13:53out a question on our Facebook page, not on our Tigs Wigs HQ
- 14:00page, but on our main page yesterday, and I thought I'd
- 14:03read some of the responses to it because I found it hilarious.
- 14:06I asked what conspiracy theory do you secretly believe is 100%
- 14:13true? And here are some answers.
- 14:16Our buddy Austin Dennis said that Auburn will be good in
- 14:21football. Again, I don't know if that's a
- 14:24conspiracy, but yeah, I think it, well, actually it is a
- 14:28conspiracy. Brantley, Salter, whoever that
- 14:31guy is, said that the NFL is rigged.
- 14:36Interesting take, Brantley. Yeah, I believe that you may be
- 14:40on to something. Blake Clinkscale says they will.
- 14:43They'll let you beat the Chiefs, but you better have 10 points on
- 14:46them before the fourth quarter because they're going to keep it
- 14:48close. And then they got you.
- 14:50Facts. That's facts.
- 14:52Greg Snail, buddy, we need to go fishing.
- 14:55He says there's too much money involved and it's entertainment
- 15:00still. Speaking of the the NFL, Mike
- 15:03Rucker, buddy Mike 911 was an inside job.
- 15:08I was convinced when I was deployed to Afghanistan that bin
- 15:12Laden construction would come on to the base and work on our
- 15:15facilities. That's not good.
- 15:19Greg, Greg, Greg says. Moon landing.
- 15:22Not a chance it happened. It's interesting, the older I
- 15:27get and the more stuff I see, the more it is hard kind of to
- 15:32believe honestly. But I'm still I'm still a
- 15:36believer. But it's it's interesting.
- 15:41I saw something today. It was just on the background
- 15:43while I was working on something just had it going, you know,
- 15:46YouTube will go and it went into that and I saw a couple of
- 15:49things. Whatever you can doctor up
- 15:51pictures today just a lot easier than they could back then.
- 15:56So I don't know, man, JFK, Darren Chandler, JFK
- 16:01assassination cover was a cover up not only that our own people
- 16:05had it planned and carried out, but that the fatal shot not not
- 16:09only did not come from Oswald, but was an accidental shot from
- 16:13behind Kennedy, a little known one there.
- 16:16Yeah, I think they talked about that on that, not Operation
- 16:20Pigmentation. I don't want to mess that up
- 16:23with the new one, the conspiracy one.
- 16:25They talked a little bit about that last week, John Melvin
- 16:29Miller, by the way, I don't believe I've given Johnny
- 16:31Rockets, also known as Johnny Ergonomics, proper credit.
- 16:36He is who did the theme song for this Tigs tonight.
- 16:39He is the orchestrator of that. So awesome.
- 16:44Thank you. Thank you.
- 16:45Thank you, Johnny. Let's see, Paul.
- 16:49Paul Rogers Roswell, Yes for sure, no doubt.
- 16:53Amy Harless that the CIA killed JFK, the 2020 election was
- 16:59rigged and COVID was 100% intentionally released to steal
- 17:03the election. If I didn't think that this
- 17:06entire show would maybe get blackballed on YouTube, there's
- 17:11it definitely will after reading all this and I don't care.
- 17:15Dane Thomas. The Eagles are going to win the
- 17:17Super Bowl. We're going to find out.
- 17:21We're going to find out and Trish Holcomb says most of them.
- 17:26The 2020 election government can control the weather.
- 17:29The government had Kennedy killed.
- 17:32She could go on and on. T Wayne Roswell and the aliens
- 17:37Norm Fauci advance the wet market explanation to cover up
- 17:42the lab accident. I do believe that.
- 17:45And then John Frazier, our buddy John, the Montreal Screwjob was
- 17:51a work. I can't really, I can't really
- 17:56disagree with that. I cannot disagree with that.
- 18:00That's right. Terry, John Melvin, and he's
- 18:03the, he is responsible for the Tigs Tonight theme and other
- 18:07stuff that will be coming. I heard he's working on a new
- 18:11Tigs Bits theme. We'll see.
- 18:13I love the Tigs bits theme. That one's going to be tough to
- 18:17to knock down. It may end up coming on the end
- 18:20of this, Who knows? Who cares?
- 18:21It's all that stuff's just all fun.
- 18:27Big E, the biggest conspiracy ever is that Charlotte Flair got
- 18:32awesome plastic surgery. I finally saw Monday Night Raw
- 18:38and Lord, yeah, no, I saw saw the Royal Rumble and yeah, she's
- 18:45she doesn't look the same. She needs she needs to eat zoo.
- 18:49She's too skinny. Whatever.
- 18:51I'm glad she's back, though. She's a great heel and we'll see
- 18:54we'll see what happens cuz she she can play the heel roll.
- 18:57Well, I don't watching that whole deal.
- 18:59I'm not sure that she was wanting to come into that ring
- 19:01and really just dive into the hill part of it.
- 19:04I don't know if she expected to be booed and almost looked like
- 19:07she was about to cry. This is hey, we're not letting
- 19:11her talk And I saw who usos too. It was good.
- 19:16It was good. Big E just quick thoughts.
- 19:20I'm not I don't know how good WrestleMania is going to be this
- 19:24year. I'm just saying it's going to be
- 19:25tough to top last year. Anyhow, They've got they got
- 19:30some stories to develop here pretty quickly, pretty quickly.
- 19:36Anyhow, a little bit of trending news today, a little bit of
- 19:42trending news. And of course, y'all know I love
- 19:45the weather and we are we're kind of weather freaks over
- 19:48here. But NOAA is very, very concerned
- 19:52about Doja's access to all of their IT systems and all of
- 19:57that. So I've got a little breakdown
- 19:59here. They're nervous because
- 20:02operatives have reportedly gained access to their computer
- 20:05systems, raising concerns about the security and integrity of
- 20:09sensitive environmental data. I mean, where are they going to
- 20:13go in and wipe it all out? I don't, I don't think that's
- 20:16what they're trying to do. They're, they're reviewing
- 20:20Noaa's diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, prompting
- 20:25decisions about the future of such programs with that's,
- 20:28that's all of them. They've official officials have
- 20:31reported that operatives defied security staff, forcefully
- 20:37entered facilities which could directly risk human life.
- 20:42And so, you know, they're just putting up a fight.
- 20:45However, being the weather guy, we definitely no one needs to be
- 20:51funded and they help so much when it comes to hurricanes and
- 20:56all of that stuff. You start defunding all that,
- 20:58which I do not believe is what the case will be.
- 21:01I don't think that that's what they're trying to do, but that
- 21:05would be, you know, that wouldn't be good if they started
- 21:08to try to do some of that. So I think the people are just
- 21:10hitting that panic button. That is all.
- 21:13Something else that's interesting.
- 21:15I've been seeing Reed Timmer talk a little bit about this is
- 21:19in Oklahoma. Their their legislature is
- 21:22trying to pass a bill that will, that will only allow college
- 21:29like professors and professional weather people to be storm
- 21:32chasers in that state. That's crazy.
- 21:35But I guess they're trying to save accidents as I mean,
- 21:39everybody, if you're like the storm chase, then you go there,
- 21:43but that's going to be that's kind of a big issue.
- 21:48I don't know. I don't know why it would be.
- 21:50It's going to be interesting to see what the legislative process
- 21:53is with that and to hear more and more obviously, folks, I
- 21:58mean, it's not going to really, I think Reed Timmer would be
- 22:01just fine and and and our our buddy, Mr. Petrowski, no issues
- 22:06there, but it definitely would affect a bunch of people.
- 22:10So interesting. Just all of the stuff that's
- 22:13going on all across the world, like if you if you really are
- 22:17just going news cycle to news cycle right now, this show would
- 22:21be an hour every night just talking about the stuff that's
- 22:24trending. So it's wild.
- 22:27It is wild. Big E says he'd love to see
- 22:32Doctor Dan break, do her, do her break her surgeries.
- 22:37She needs Doctor Dan. She does.
- 22:39She definitely does. No, Brian says that's not what
- 22:43she or the WWE expected. I didn't really think it was
- 22:47either. I didn't think it was either.
- 22:50It just kind of didn't look. I I think they just thought it
- 22:54was going to be a little bit of a, a warmer, a little bit of a
- 22:57warmer reception. It certainly wasn't.
- 23:01It certainly was not. I've saw this.
- 23:07I'm trying to remember what it was.
- 23:09Oh, the King Salmon video. I don't know if I'm.
- 23:15I'm sure most of y'all have seen this by now.
- 23:17Let me see if I can pull it up on my page.
- 23:22I can't remember it. Yeah, there it is.
- 23:24All right. I'm sure most of y'all have seen
- 23:26it, but if not, this is kind of where it comes in.
- 23:29And I had an interesting comment that came from it and it made
- 23:35me, I'm going to tell you a little story here in a second.
- 23:38I'm just losing my mind. And I that whole computer
- 23:41freezing just took me off track. Like it derailed me worse than
- 23:44Jr. coming in midway through a show.
- 23:47Here we go. That is a part.
- 23:50OK, King salmon, baby, The first one, first king salmon.
- 23:57I'm a big dumb animal, folks. That's all.
- 23:59I'm just a big dumb animal. But so I tell that and show that
- 24:07the a response that I got is go and somebody's, I think I'd left
- 24:12a hashtag Ketchikan, Ketchikan, Alaska, which is where it
- 24:15happened. And we talked about that on the
- 24:18Bubba show that'll be coming out this week as well.
- 24:21We kind of go in into that a little bit more, but I didn't
- 24:25tell this story. I don't know.
- 24:26I don't know why I didn't whenever we were talking, but
- 24:30somebody left a comment and they said it look up the 8th grade
- 24:33survival in Alaska and Ketchikan, Alaska.
- 24:37And I went, what are they talking about?
- 24:38So I did and wow. So whenever they go out, they,
- 24:45they get a can. They get like a Folgers coffee
- 24:50can. This is 8th graders and for 45
- 24:52years they've been doing this stuff and they, they get like a
- 24:55can, maybe a piece of Flint or something like that.
- 25:00It's like 3 bare bones, bare minimum deals that you go out
- 25:06with. And it is survival.
- 25:09They take them out on this remote island and they have to
- 25:11survive for three days. So they have to catch fish or
- 25:15whatever it is that they're going to, whatever they're going
- 25:18to do. Crazy, crazy, crazy.
- 25:22I just found that interesting once I looked it up.
- 25:24You can go on YouTube, definitely some shows and some
- 25:28some things that detail it go into a lot more details about
- 25:33it. But super interesting.
- 25:35I didn't think I didn't find anything that wasn't just too,
- 25:38too long, but that's crazy. Can you imagine?
- 25:41I mean, that would be they should do that in Louisiana.
- 25:44Throw some kids in the swamp for three days and see what happens.
- 25:49Maybe not. Maybe they shouldn't do that.
- 25:51That probably wouldn't turn out good at all.
- 25:54They probably used to do that at some point in time.
- 25:57Yeah. But yes, Paul, Paul says that
- 26:00salmon is good. And I'll tell you what, man, the
- 26:04coolest thing about about that trip.
- 26:07Yeah, it's a guided trip, charted charter trip, whatever.
- 26:13It's not like you're going out with your buddies and you're
- 26:15fishing. So yeah, I expected to catch
- 26:17some fish and we did, and I lost a lost a huge one, but so cool.
- 26:21We're out there catching fish. There's the mountains, they're
- 26:24around us, the water we're in, like this Little River that goes
- 26:28into this Bay and it's just gorgeous.
- 26:31There's some whales and a baby whale in front of us and they
- 26:35were coming up and blowing every now and then.
- 26:38I'm just like, there were bears over on the bank.
- 26:43There were some bears over with a mom and their Cubs.
- 26:46Like, is this real life? Is this really happening?
- 26:49And then catching salmon, eating hearts.
- 26:52It's what you do. It's what you do.
- 26:55It was definitely, it was definitely to get a kick out of
- 26:59that guy he had. It's not that is not a
- 27:01tradition. There's no way it's a tradition.
- 27:03But it was fun to do. Huge news today and Lord, I wish
- 27:08that I had the money to get there.
- 27:10I need to win the lottery to make this happen.
- 27:12I think pretty much anybody would need to win the lottery to
- 27:16make this happen. It was announced that Black
- 27:20Sabbath will be playing their final show and Ozzy as well,
- 27:26doing some of his stuff as well. That's going to be it.
- 27:30Now, they've said that 30 years ago, but I actually actually do
- 27:33believe them this time. Ozzy.
- 27:35Tony Geeza and Bill Ward playing for the first time together in
- 27:4020 years and it's being Tom Morello is like helping do do
- 27:47some of the production and stuff with it.

- 27:58of God, Anthrax, Mastodon, Billy Corgan, David Draymond from
- 28:04Disturbed, Duff, Fred Durst, I mean all kinds of freaking
- 28:10people. I'm hoping Wolfgang Van Halen.
- 28:13I am hope slash Sammy Hagar. I really hope that that Dave
- 28:18Mustang for Megadeth gets gets an invite.
- 28:21He should be there. He's a huge fan.
- 28:24Johnny and I were talking about that earlier today, actually.
- 28:27So yeah, yeah, dude, I'd do anything to get together.
- 28:33That's in it's in Birmingham, England, not not Alabama.
- 28:41I wish you was. I found this funny.
- 28:46And you guys that aren't from Louisiana may not find this as
- 28:51funny as we do, but I I found it extremely interesting that one
- 28:56of the towns that Terry and I certainly know plenty about made
- 29:00this some Louisiana names and streets and.
- 29:02Things like. That and you're.
- 29:04Just going to. Have to pronounce before us OK
- 29:07Opal Lasse I never wachita. Oh, Chitza.
- 29:17Tangy Pahad. I don't know that one.
- 29:26La Forte Natchitoches, I know that.
- 29:39Yeah. So, yeah, first of all, the name
- 29:45of the towns while it's still while it's still playing, that
- 29:48is Opelousas. Opelousas.
- 29:51That is Zawali. Zawali is fluorine's rival in
- 29:54basketball. That's where I'm from.
- 29:56Washita Tangibahoa. And look, I, I get it, this is,
- 30:01but this is everything down here, y'all, this is just about
- 30:05every little town. I butcher them.
- 30:07Lafourche and Nakatish. See, I almost butchered
- 30:11Lafourche. It's Lafourche and then
- 30:14Nakatish. Nakatish is not far from where
- 30:16I'm from as well, but that is a whole thing.
- 30:20I wish that in a way that y'all were in here.
- 30:23It is a good trivia question for people that may be moving
- 30:27forward. What is this?
- 30:29How do you pronounce this? They do it at the Super Bowl and
- 30:31at Saints games. And anytime, any, any time that
- 30:36that something's going on down here in in Louisiana and New
- 30:39Orleans especially, then you're going to see it.
- 30:44Let's see. I wanted to show one more thing.
- 30:48One more thing tonight. Let's see.
- 30:51Let me try to open this. There we go.
- 30:52All right, so Speaking of fluorine, Speaking of funny
- 30:57names, Speaking of interesting things I've got to give, I got
- 31:01to give Terry a little bit of credit for this.
- 31:03He sent this to me and I've been wanting to I've been wanting to
- 31:09think I've been my mom has wanted me to to talk to this
- 31:12man. He's in fluorine.
- 31:14He has this antique gas station. You're about to see it all.
- 31:17His name is Ralph Cook and Terry found a video on YouTube with
- 31:22him and talking about him so. So we're passing by on the
- 31:28highway and I saw these classic cars.
- 31:30I came and asked the gentleman that owns this place if we could
- 31:32do a photo shoot, and he said yeah, his name is Ralph Cook.
- 31:35Ralph Cook's Classic Cars. Yeah, he's got classic cars
- 31:37here. And we're in Florin, Louisiana.
- 31:40So if you ever come by and you need some help working on some
- 31:42cars, you come and see Ralph Cook, fam.
- 31:45Just kidding. I'm rushing it.
- 31:46The. Safety.
- 31:48Of a body by Fisher, a name that represents the most in
- 31:52automobile body quality. That's what you really did.
- 32:17I think that's what attracted me the most about it.
- 32:19And I told her I was like, she knew too.
- 32:20She's like, you want to stop there, don't you?
- 32:22Like I do. And this is actually the first
- 32:24time. Well, I've been doing a lot of
- 32:26video and I do a lot of the YouTube stuff, but this is the
- 32:28first time I've actually stopped and asked somebody if I could do
- 32:31it. In the past I had a lumber yard
- 32:33here, retail lumber yard. Across the street back here, you
- 32:36know. Oh, sixteen, man.
- 32:49I think you've been planning on doing this today.
- 32:50All right, We're good. Definitely appreciate it, Ralph.
- 33:03I got your number. All right.
- 33:05Thank you, Sir. How awesome is that?
- 33:13Ralph's cool and I am sure there are some, yes, Ralph was Terry's
- 33:20next door neighbor growing up. I can, I can confirm that.
- 33:24I totally can confirm that. And man, what a what an
- 33:28interesting cat. He did have a lumberyard and he
- 33:32just has that. He's done everything.
- 33:34Ralph Cook owns probably 25% of Louisiana.
- 33:38At some point. You'd never know it.
- 33:40Just a good old boy. Comes from a family.
- 33:42One of my best friends, Colby Cook is, I guess, his nephew, I
- 33:48guess. Yeah, that would be right,
- 33:49wouldn't it, Terry? But there's several of those
- 33:53brothers. He's one of the old, I think.
- 33:55I think Ralph is the oldest of them.
- 33:57But just man, those cooks can sling cars, fix anything, have
- 34:03cool stuff like that. Just everything, man, it's it's
- 34:08it is awesome. It is awesome, and I've been
- 34:10I've been wanting to show that since Terry shared it with me.
- 34:14Well, that's all I've got tonight, gang, and it's been a
- 34:18it's been a fun show, one that's it's always fun when there's
- 34:22some hobbles. We always get through them.
- 34:26So it's no big deal and is no big deal.
- 34:29But look, totally appreciate y'all hanging with us being in
- 34:32here tonight, tomorrow night, tomorrow night.
- 34:36The Cajun critic will be joining us.
- 34:39So that's going to be a lot of fun.
- 34:42We're going to hear more about the event that he has on March
- 34:478th, the burger cook off and catch back up with him on all of
- 34:51that kind of good stuff. So same time, same place.
