- 0:01There were three, but now there's two.
- 0:06Just me and you. Tiki, what we going to do?
- 0:10We're going to make a show and it's going to be good.
- 0:15Cheers to Blasey. Happy trails my brother.
- 0:17Stay safe out there. We'll see you soon, buddy.
- 0:20Happy trails my man, Happy trails.
- 0:31All right, welcome back to what might be the real estate run of
- 0:35shows that we've ever done. If you heard last week's
- 0:39episode, you know that we peeled back a few layers.
- 0:44We got real about where we're headed and a lot, a lot's
- 0:47happened. Since then.
- 0:49I've been out at events, getting some feedback, making moves.
- 0:54Jr. has recorded his first solo show that will be dropping very
- 0:58soon. So tonight, Jr. and I are going
- 1:02to catch up, let things breathe a little bit and talk about what
- 1:06comes next. Because yeah, oh hell yeah,
- 1:10there is a next. And at some point in this
- 1:13episode, you're going to hear something that changes the whole
- 1:16landscape of this show. But first, let's check in.
- 1:22J Rs here. We got a whole mess of random
- 1:26stuff to get into, too, if we get the time from grocery store
- 1:30conversations to who knows what else.
- 1:33What is up Jr.? What is going on my brother?
- 1:37That just that just reminded me of a story I didn't tell and I'm
- 1:40going to tell it on my new Jr. the Handler show, the music show
- 1:45too. But that just reminded me, dude,
- 1:46this is so random. But so the other night my dog's
- 1:49been itchy. Lola girl's been itchy lately.
- 1:51And so we've been giving her apple quill, which is a from the
- 1:55vet is to help her with her itch and she can take 2 a day.
- 1:58So the other night we, we, you know, we try not to give her two
- 2:01a day unless she really needs it.
- 2:02But you know, she's been real itchy with springtime and summer
- 2:04kicking in. So the other night I thought
- 2:07Cherise said would you give her apple quill yet?
- 2:09I said no see I will if I go to bed.
- 2:11So I thought about it. I said well let me just go get
- 2:12her one now. I said like midnight.
- 2:14So I go get her one out, put it in my hand.
- 2:16I go to get the peanut butter out.
- 2:18As I get the peanut butter out, I think, hell, I want some
- 2:19peanut butter also, right? So I get me a couple dollops of
- 2:23peanut butter. I said, well I got some nuts
- 2:24over here, I might as well eat a handful of nuts with the peanut
- 2:27butter and a little piece of dark chocolate to complete this
- 2:30trifecta of late night indulgence, right?
- 2:33For sure. So my second handful of nuts, I
- 2:37realized there was a funny taste and I thought, wow, must have
- 2:41got a husk, you know, or a hole. It must been a pecan hole.
- 2:44Kind of tastes like a pecan hole.
- 2:46And then I double checked and said, wait a minute, where's
- 2:47Lola's? Where's Lola's medicine?
- 2:49And it's not in my hands. So I chomped on Lola's Apoquel.
- 2:55I and I got I didn't swallow it all down.
- 2:57I got most of it. I spit some back up.
- 2:59I still had some in my mouth. But then I immediately go into
- 3:02panic mode thinking can humans take Apoquel that's made for my
- 3:06dog which I'm Then I'm thinking well surely anything that's for
- 3:09my smaller dog to me should be fine for me.
- 3:11But let me double check and mild symptoms but nothing nothing to
- 3:17report. I was fine, but that just.
- 3:19You did have mild symptoms. Well, it I didn't have any I
- 3:23that I noticed I besides me panicking and then I attributed
- 3:26them to all just my self-awareness on that.
- 3:28I just take my dog's medication at midnight when I was when it
- 3:32when it when it when I knew I didn't need a snack anyway.
- 3:34It was like divine punishment for I didn't need a snack at
- 3:38that time anyway, so. That is, Yeah.
- 3:40Oh my God, yeah. That's exactly what you get at
- 3:43that, that late night. That's what I get peanut butter.
- 3:46Peanut butter's a killer for me too.
- 3:48I got whenever I'm, I'm really legit trying to, to keep it
- 3:53straight. I, I, I got to cut out peanut
- 3:57butter. It's so easy at the end of the
- 3:59night. Like, you know what, I just need
- 4:01a little snacky paki right here. Give me a little snacky paki.
- 4:04One big old polyp which is really probably 4 tablespoons
- 4:09let's be honest, that you eat and you're like you get 2 of
- 4:12them shit. I mean you just chunked on
- 4:15portion controls calories. Because it's like it's better
- 4:20than a lot of things you could be eating if you, especially if
- 4:22you got some good organic, good peanut butter that's not got a
- 4:25bunch of crazy stuff in it. But yeah, like you said, portion
- 4:27control it because you read the bag, you're like, oh, that's not
- 4:29too bad. I'll get 2 tablespoons.
- 4:30Yeah, but when you when you heap it up on there.
- 4:33It's more like. 2 1/2 per scoop. Yeah, no way.
- 4:37Yeah, I do the same thing. Then occasionally I'm like, you
- 4:39know what? Honey is good for your sinuses.
- 4:41Absolutely. Swallow.
- 4:43Put a little honey on. I put good for your heart, might
- 4:45as well just pile it all up there.
- 4:47We're all one in the same market.
- 4:50And at that point I'm like, well, I need to put it on a
- 4:53saltine to hold all this up. Well, Saltine's not good for me,
- 4:55but all this other stuff is, so it'll overpower how bad the
- 4:58saltine is. Or.
- 4:59Oh my. God.
- 5:00And and the balance that you get with the saltine, a banana also
- 5:04gives you that balance and a little fiber and some potassium.
- 5:09Yeah, Yeah, great combat. So but but so that was my that
- 5:12was my random what's happening with old Jr. lately?
- 5:16Was that also record like you mentioned?
- 5:19I did record my first podcast. Yeah man, the Jr. the handler
- 5:22show this couple days ago, eagerly waiting that to drop.
- 5:27I know some people have asked on socials when and where they can
- 5:29find it. Trust me, as soon as it is
- 5:32ready, everyone will know tweaking the stuff there at the
- 5:35end. I didn't have anything else
- 5:36ready. You know, I'm technically and
- 5:40uninclined and and illiterate on a lot of this stuff, how it
- 5:43works. So when I getting it set up and
- 5:47sent over and all that stuff, I didn't have any of my other
- 5:49things prepared to package a podcast ready when I said go.
- 5:52So I pre emptively probably shouldn't have said it was
- 5:56coming out as soon as I did, but that just forces me to have to
- 5:58do something. You sometimes you're forced to
- 6:00do something. You just do it.
- 6:02So yeah, so I'm we're working on that.
- 6:05I thank you to Rodger Lee Coleman for sending me some
- 6:09guitar licks today. They'll be used in the show and
- 6:11we'll have him on talk about he he Rodger builds guitars as
- 6:14well. I'd love to have him on Tigs
- 6:15bitch, because he'd be unique. I'd love to get him and like
- 6:18somebody else, another tradesman like on that to talk about the
- 6:21inside of what the new, you know, post COVID world looks
- 6:27like for small, small businesses like that, you know, artesian
- 6:30crafts and you know, because you think about what it probably
- 6:33used to be and now what their costs are.
- 6:34We wait a couple months and see how everything shakes out and,
- 6:37and have them on. But anyway, I want to say thank
- 6:39you to Rodgers. He sent me some guitar stuff
- 6:41over today we're going to use for the show and a few other
- 6:44things, but it's coming together.
- 6:46And once we get all that, it will be out on all platforms.
- 6:491st guest I had was pretty fun. It was my old buddy.
- 6:54You, you tease this on your social medias heading back to
- 7:00God's country. One of those guys.
- 7:02And I knew exactly you hadn't even told us, but I knew exactly
- 7:06who you were talking about. But I couldn't answer.
- 7:08Yeah, it's I wanted to, Yeah, it's a, it's a tour manager
- 7:12buddy of mine, and that's what I'm going to have on the show.
- 7:14A lot is is different people that work in the business and
- 7:19not necessarily just the artist. I'm going to get some band guys,
- 7:22but crew, production side, tour manager, assist tour managers,
- 7:26managers, all that kind of stuff too on the show.
- 7:28So I thought the first one since he random, I thought about how
- 7:32good a guest he would be. I put him in a short list of a
- 7:35few I wanted early on the show that I thought man that they're
- 7:38interesting to me. I know they'll be interesting to
- 7:40everyone else. So I just need to get them on
- 7:41early. And I'm sitting on the bus in
- 7:45North Carolina this past week, this past Thursday, the 3rd,
- 7:49April 3rd, it was North Carolina.
- 7:52And the phone rings and I look down and it's this guy.
- 7:55And I was like, what's going on? Buddy called about something
- 7:57else. I told him I was doing the
- 7:58podcast. He said absolutely.
- 8:00He said, I've never done one. I'd love to do it.
- 8:03You tell me when and where. So I said, what do you got going
- 8:06on Monday? I said, I said you home.
- 8:07He said, man, we're only doing 20 something shows this year.
- 8:10Yeah, I'm home a lot. So wow.
- 8:13So I hit him up Monday. It's Morgan Wallen's tour
- 8:16manager. And they didn't just play, Yeah,
- 8:19they didn't just play this. They had just played SNL, you
- 8:22know, the week before and Morgan was in all the headlines for I
- 8:26mean, what a slow week in the news cycle when that's on
- 8:29everything there is and that you know, so we'll he just he talked
- 8:31about the. Camera.
- 8:32I don't really think he meant. Anything he's going to DAP up
- 8:35the crowd. I didn't know.
- 8:36Yeah. So anyway, we get into that a
- 8:38little bit. He gives a little perspective
- 8:39back because he was there obviously and.
- 8:41That's a hell of a first get Jr. for your first show.
- 8:44I mean, that's that's what I'm talking about because of what's
- 8:48happening. Yeah, well, I wanted him to come
- 8:50on. It's because I literally put him
- 8:52in a short list of like 3 or 4 people, and I was just telling
- 8:55Justin that my idea about the three or four people and he's.
- 8:57That'd be great. And then a minute later my phone
- 8:59rings and it's him. And I'm like, what's
- 9:01intervention there? So.
- 9:02He. Was like, I'm all about it.
- 9:04So that just worked out and then I've got a couple more of those
- 9:10lined up. I think I'm on and I and I'm
- 9:11not, we're not pressing anybody on it.
- 9:13I'm not trying to make anybody arrange their stuff.
- 9:15I'm like, if you're home, I get somebody.
- 9:17If not, I'll just do the show myself.
- 9:19But most of the time people in my business are home on Mondays,
- 9:22and that's kind of our Saturday or Sunday when you're just
- 9:25resting at home or, you know, getting errands done.
- 9:28So hopefully I'll be able to keep that going.
- 9:30But we had a great time catching up.
- 9:32We talked about that for just a short little bit.
- 9:33So spoiler alert here, you're not going to get any inside, you
- 9:37know? There's not a big, big you're
- 9:39not. There's nothing's going to go
- 9:40viral from a clip from it. Well, it probably will just
- 9:43because it's on that. Subject if I have anything to do
- 9:47with it, whenever it comes out I'm going to clip it up.
- 9:50Permission is granted from Jr. Didn't ask that.
- 9:52He already. Yeah, we're going to make it
- 9:55eat. Well, you think about y'all.
- 9:56Putting you put it out too. The more you put it out, the
- 9:59more it could eat. Yeah, and if but it and if it
- 10:01doesn't come out soon, it'll be over because you know how short
- 10:04the attention span is in the news News soccer.
- 10:07It needs to come out within like a week, honestly.
- 10:10So but hopefully by the time you're hearing this, whenever
- 10:12you're hearing this, hopefully J Rs podcast is out.
- 10:16I'm rooting for it. You think it'll?
- 10:17Be a week, have it out. Next day, Next 10 days.
- 10:20Oh, OK. Yeah, yeah, I'm hoping.
- 10:21I mean, it's on, it's, it's done.
- 10:23It's just got to get done. And if like I said, I didn't
- 10:25record it properly, I used the Zoom machine and I forgot to
- 10:30separate the audio when it recorded because I haven't used
- 10:33it forever and I took me forever to get my camera set up and my
- 10:36battery dying and my, you know so but.
- 10:38Episode 1, baby. That's it's rookie moves.
- 10:42You knew it would happen. You got to get it out.
- 10:44Yeah, and I was late getting set up and getting everything turned
- 10:47on. So then I didn't have my notes
- 10:49written down and he was ready beforehand because he was bored
- 10:52at home. So I didn't have my.
- 10:55I didn't ask. You the one.
- 10:57Yeah, I didn't have any of my questions in my little routine,
- 11:00my my schedule that I or my kind of outline that I wanted to do
- 11:04laid out. So I didn't get to do that.
- 11:06But it was a great time catching up because we've known each
- 11:08other so long. We could just we just riff back
- 11:10and forth about the good old days.
- 11:12His audio is not great because we didn't get it set up right,
- 11:14but we'll do better next time. He's going to come back on he's
- 11:17made a few weeks and and do it again and when we can have more
- 11:20time. But I was just making sure
- 11:21everything runs and I wanted to get get that out the hole with
- 11:24with a comment and then the awards of the awards, all
- 11:27nominations just coming out. So we got that done.
- 11:31But we talked about, you know, he's, I didn't realize how many
- 11:35other artists he worked for. We talked about how he got to
- 11:37where he's at, which is just as unique and odd as the way I got
- 11:40to being a tour manager myself, you know?
- 11:42So it was a great. That is so damn cool.
- 11:47To have an insider's perspective of tour managers were some of
- 11:52the biggest hacks in music. It didn't matter what genre in
- 11:57music. Justin Moore is one of the
- 11:58biggest acts in music and you represent the man and you were
- 12:03his tour manager. And then to have Morgan Wallen,
- 12:05there's no doubt that dudes at the top of the damn mountain
- 12:09right now. Top of the food Gen. for sure.
- 12:11Any artist in any genre? Oh yeah, unreal.
- 12:15They're playing, we talk about on there, they're playing they
- 12:19play 11 weeks this year and it that's it two shows, 2/22 shows
- 12:26stadiums only sound staying 70,000 people same town twice.
- 12:32So you don't have to move each night.
- 12:33You stay the same place, you play the same.
- 12:34You go to a city, play there two nights next week, two nights and
- 12:37that's. When you made it, huh?
- 12:39Because. You can make work there.
- 12:42As a tour manager, let me ask this can you is and I would
- 12:45think this answer is yes. So you're playing that many
- 12:48shows. You got to have the artist who
- 12:50can do that and feel that feel. Put the butts in the seats,
- 12:53number one. But you get 70,000 people 22
- 12:56times all the productions. Probably a lot more, probably
- 13:00has bigger 18 Wheelers. You have to have a bigger stay.
- 13:02Easier, more speakers, all that stuff.
- 13:05If you're only using it 22 times compared to using it 80 or 100
- 13:08times and you're only and you're not, and you're not moving it in
- 13:11between cities. You'll make they'll wait way
- 13:14more money than if they go on a 8080 show tour arena tour.
- 13:20Oh, yeah, They got no, no, no, hardly any travel stuff.
- 13:23Yeah, that's like when George Strait's been doing for the
- 13:25last, I don't know, decade or so.
- 13:26He just plays the biggest place he can.
- 13:28So he just makes. Bank when he fills Texas A&M
- 13:31Stadium. You're making double digit
- 13:34millions per shot, you know. That's why Garth Brooks went and
- 13:38did what he did so he could. He held it by like, think about
- 13:42like when the Foo Fighters go play in other countries and and
- 13:45these big rock bands play in international shows, man.
- 13:47I mean, you talk about, you talk about you taking it from, you're
- 13:51taking it you're, it's a big leap going from a basketball gym
- 13:55or a Amphitheatre to a football stadium and then go from a
- 13:59football stadium to a soccer stadium in a country in South
- 14:03America that holds 250,000. I mean, you know, they can get
- 14:05extreme on those, but that's the top of the food chain.
- 14:08Yeah. When you can headline a football
- 14:11stadium in America, that's as big as you can get, as big as we
- 14:13got, as big as we. Got yeah, yeah.
- 14:17Yeah, great workload, that's. What I'm saying just a hell.
- 14:19And it's a lot of money because you he said, you know, 4050
- 14:22truck and bus drivers, you know, you think I'm a couple 100 crew
- 14:25people. I mean it is a there is a lot
- 14:27there. A lot, a lot bigger production
- 14:29in that kind of a setting. You know, you probably can't
- 14:32wait to quadruple the size of the team with the trucks, the
- 14:37the people that have to set up the stage, the equipment, all
- 14:40that that to put on the show that probably triples,
- 14:44quadruples at least. Oh, yeah.
- 14:47But like you're saying, it makes sense.
- 14:50I mean, but not everybody can do that.
- 14:52Not everybody can pull no a whole damn stadium into into
- 14:57their show. That's that's that's fun.
- 14:59Be like doing a Vegas residency. We'd be cool too.
- 15:02Or a residency somewhere where people go to see you.
- 15:04You don't have to go. You think about you don't have
- 15:06to move the whole operation anywhere.
- 15:08How much money you save. So that's why a lot of those,
- 15:10you get your bigger artists it, you know, let's be honest,
- 15:13they've kind of made their run on pop radio of whatever genre
- 15:17they're in. But they're still huge.
- 15:19They're huge stars. Now they're in Las Vegas doing
- 15:22these residencies like Britney Spears, for instance, like after
- 15:26her major. Because Vegas is because Vegas
- 15:28is easy to get to, Yeah. And people from anywhere can get
- 15:32there and you can specialize what audience you want instead
- 15:35of just pulling the X amount of these fans in this town.
- 15:38You have 2500 every night. And it's Vegas, so you got the
- 15:42biggest, best production in the world, unlimited resources at
- 15:46these casinos because they're taking free money.
- 15:48So, you know, it's, it's a good rise.
- 15:51Branson used to be that back in the day, right?
- 15:53You know, kind of deal. Is is that why a lot of?
- 15:56Countries. Everybody from the South could
- 15:58travel to Branson or Dollywood and see stars, you know?
- 16:01You had a place. Instead you go there, you spend
- 16:04the week, you see whoever you like instead of them having to
- 16:06go to each time. I mean, that's.
- 16:08Do a lot of is that why a lot of country artists?
- 16:11It's not just country, but it's a lot of country folks
- 16:14especially that come around down down through here that I see
- 16:17play the casinos like the casino tour probably more lucrative
- 16:22than just playing the varsity here or the the arena Baton
- 16:28Rouge arena thing the Kane Center.
- 16:30What a Kane Arena. But you know, they've got the
- 16:33casinos all have a built in showroom or a venue made for it.
- 16:37They they're they're free money. You know, they have to have
- 16:41entertainment for their Pete, their clients, their big wigs,
- 16:44and they're just people in general.
- 16:45It's a, you know, I always said that, yeah, if a, if a casino,
- 16:49they just want you to bring half, fill it up halfway.
- 16:51And if half those people who show up go spend a little money.
- 16:54They've paid for US times 10, you know.
- 16:56Let's talk a little bit about the show.
- 16:59Jr. It is.
- 17:00Kind of, yeah, I know about that.
- 17:02Yeah. So this show, this show here,
- 17:04the Tigs bits, Well, we talked about last week that we were,
- 17:08you know, kind of laid out that I was going to do a new show.
- 17:11Brantley. Tigs wants to lean into doing
- 17:13more of the the cooking aspect and the food stuff with his
- 17:17content, but we still wanted to keep Tigs bits alive here on the
- 17:21Bubba network and for all of for everybody who's tuned in and
- 17:26listened to this. And we implored Blasey to try to
- 17:29take some take the reins on that and figure out what the next
- 17:33move is. And he did in one way or
- 17:36another. He sidestepped us and he Olaid
- 17:41us and we got, we both talked to him here today.
- 17:46I think I got a text. He has been slammed with work.
- 17:49He's got way too much going on, probably more than he needs to
- 17:54just in general, much less to be trying to do the show as well.
- 17:57So he's going to take a leave of absence and part ways with the
- 18:00show for now and it no, we hope he's back when he's able.
- 18:06But he got y'all heard on the show of the last couple months.
- 18:08He had that new job thing. He was a little worried about
- 18:10this and that. I don't know how much you guys
- 18:12heard cuz I don't know half time for recording or not.
- 18:14I'm just always on, just assuming we're recording all the
- 18:17time. So fair.
- 18:19I just do. So I don't know how much you
- 18:21guys know we're not, but he was, he was, we were having to move
- 18:23around for his stuff and he was really just cuz he got a new
- 18:26job, he was doing some training. He didn't know about this.
- 18:28I was having to go here. And I mean, we've talked to him
- 18:30in a couple different cities in states the last couple weeks.
- 18:33He's been traveling as much as I have.
- 18:36So he's just, he's just got to take a break for now.
- 18:39He's got too much going on. He's got a constant.
- 18:41He's got the boys are all knee deep in ball practice and stuff.
- 18:44And he and I get it. So Oh yeah, he's going to take a
- 18:46step back. Our workloads are more
- 18:49manageable for what we do right now.
- 18:52So we're going to keep this show alive.
- 18:54We don't know exactly what format and what all we're going
- 18:57to talk about every week or what, but we want some input on
- 19:02that. But our main goal is to churn
- 19:05out quality content, talk about the things that you guys and
- 19:08gals want to talk about and hear us comment on, have guests on
- 19:12that have meaning that come on so you can take something away
- 19:15from it, whether it's a laugh or a thought or a perspective on
- 19:21something and still contribute with our brothers down in Tampa
- 19:26with Seth and Lummi and Bubba and all of the knuckleheads that
- 19:30that down there, because I love them so much.
- 19:32They've helped us out so much. And we're we still want to
- 19:35interact with them and, and get up, get, get something going
- 19:38with that deeper than what we have been lately, which I'm
- 19:43confident we will. I know actually I'm going to be
- 19:45down there in a few weeks. So I'm hoping to catch them
- 19:47there. Nice invite.
- 19:49See if someone will come out the show.
- 19:50But, but so anyway, nothing's going to change.
- 19:53Like we mentioned last week, the show's going to roll on same bat
- 19:56time, same bat place, and it will morph into whatever the
- 20:03world let's it morph into. Would you say that was a fair
- 20:07assessment? Dude, I couldn't.
- 20:09I couldn't say that any better. Jr.
- 20:11That's perfect and that's exactly what it that's exactly
- 20:14what it is. We wanted to we peeled those
- 20:17onions back the layers last week.
- 20:19We get like kind of pulled the curtains back and just let y'all
- 20:22in. That's what we're about to do
- 20:25now. Like Jr. and I've we've talked,
- 20:27we know this is happening. It is super fresh, but we
- 20:30haven't talked talk and we kind of wanted to save our talk talk
- 20:35for this for this show so that maybe maybe there's some ideas
- 20:39and that's exactly you couldn't upset it any better.
- 20:41Jr. We definitely want you bubble
- 20:43army out there, you tigs wigs, you just listening.
- 20:47That's never hurt us before. Give us some ideas.
- 20:50I think this show's kind of new now we've got a fresh new show.
- 20:54It's just going to be the two of us whenever we put these out,
- 20:58so. And with our with our already
- 21:01condensed back to quality over quantity theory in podcasting,
- 21:07meaning if we come to the plate again with guests, we don't have
- 21:10to pick which show we want to try to put it on or how we're
- 21:13going to format it all that we just cut a podcast like we
- 21:16intend to do the whole like you started Tigs bits to do and like
- 21:20I ever wanted to do podcast and listen to them is just to cut a
- 21:22podcast just just to rap about things that you find interesting
- 21:27and can enjoy the conversation like an NPR, but not quite so
- 21:32nerdy, you know what I mean? Right, exactly.
- 21:35The hair under that where I can understand good old boys can
- 21:37understand Southern perspective, the southern culture.
- 21:40You know, since we're just talking about it free talk here.
- 21:43I think that I think that's it when it when it comes to guests,
- 21:46the ones I've really enjoyed on this show, whether listening to
- 21:48your show before I came on as a Co host or since I've become a
- 21:52Co host, is the regional interesting regional people,
- 21:56whether it be a high celebrity or just because what they do is
- 22:00interesting to us. But the regionals characters and
- 22:04and celebrities like all of our buddies from the food world.
- 22:10I mean, I I can't even list them all.
- 22:11They're Austin and to the gabs and I mean that whole bunch are
- 22:15all so awesome. I want there's anything I can
- 22:17ever do to help any of them. I would always do it no matter
- 22:20what. So love to keep having them kind
- 22:23of folks home, but more of those, you know, I would love to
- 22:25do 1 sometime with your buddy, the metal detector guy.
- 22:28I'd like to be on a show with him at some point.
- 22:31You know, somebody well, like we mentioned Boo Weekly a while
- 22:34back, a golfer who's from Florida.
- 22:36It'd be fun to have him on and not just going for celebrities
- 22:39for a, you know, a grab because they're a big name or would be
- 22:44big get, you know, but something that's again, interesting and
- 22:49regional and cultural to us. The I, I love the covering from
- 22:53the fringes of Texas through the beautiful lowlands of Louisiana,
- 23:00down the Mississippi coast, over through Alabama and southern,
- 23:03the Wiregrass region, down to South Alabama, through the
- 23:06Panhandle in South Georgia, down all the way to Florida, to the
- 23:09Keys. We just keep, we concentrate in
- 23:11that region. We sprinkle it up to Atlanta,
- 23:13Nashville, keep our Birmingham Little Finger, Little Rock, but
- 23:17I think we just channel. Well, it's like we always said,
- 23:21southern culture podcast, you know, and we're we're the
- 23:23contribution for that. And I think that was the intent
- 23:28from day one. So I that would be that just
- 23:30right off the top of my head. That's that's kind of what I
- 23:33would think with what if we if we do with our guests gets.
- 23:36I love how I guess what I like enjoy doing.
- 23:38I like having the fun guests on like that.
- 23:40I do too and even the bowsers and still do some conspiracy
- 23:43stuff. Oh, bowsers coming aliens or?
- 23:46Whatever and MERS you know, I have an ally on.
- 23:51I mean, yeah, yeah, just. Fun stuff, Just fun.
- 23:54That's the thing. We're going to have fun again.
- 23:57And not that we weren't having fun, but like we said last week,
- 24:01I think we diluted the show a little too much, got a little
- 24:03too watered down. I actually got feedback from a
- 24:07friend of mine and a fan of the show today.
- 24:10We were talking and I was kind of telling him he's making a few
- 24:13changes, going through some things too.
- 24:15I was like, that's fun, man. Everybody's making changes right
- 24:18now. Like you're the third person I
- 24:19talked to. And then he saw a clip that I'd
- 24:23put out on social media from last week's show that's out
- 24:26everywhere, the Part 1 of this. And he was like, what's
- 24:30happening with your show? I saw this, what's happening
- 24:34out? That kind of told him the 30,000
- 24:36foot overview of it, which takes a minute, but gave it to him.
- 24:41And he was like, Oh yeah, man, I think that'll be great because
- 24:45y'all kind of y'all kind of it was y'all.
- 24:47I still loved it, but y'all just started talking about any and
- 24:50everything for a while and I'm like, yeah, that's true, That's
- 24:55true. So we're kind of holding back in
- 24:57Jr. doing music. I'm going to be doing festivals,
- 25:01covering some festivals. Fact.
- 25:03I got asked to be a judge today. On May 17th, I will be a judge
- 25:09at this crawfish cook off in Natchitoches, LA Love it.
- 25:14So that's going to be fun. Thing that's kind of sucks is
- 25:17that I won't be able to like go around and see the vendors and
- 25:21all them, all of them boiling the crawfish and get that
- 25:23footage, but I will be able to get footage inside of like me
- 25:27and how I judge crawfish. Yeah, I love it.
- 25:30That'd be I've been lost. Inside inside the.
- 25:33Cottage yeah. Think how many times you've been
- 25:35to a, a, a event like that and wondered what's the criteria to
- 25:38be a judge? What do they what are they
- 25:40looking for? What would they?
- 25:41Why did they pick this and not that, you know?
- 25:43Exactly. I love it.
- 25:44I mean, it's a greater perspective.
- 25:45It's gonna be fun. I'm looking forward to it.
- 25:47Like, these are the things that are happening with the show now,
- 25:50you know? So like, we're rocking and
- 25:51rolling, man. We're moving.
- 25:53It's moving forward. We're going to miss our brother
- 25:56Blasey. Oh yeah.
- 25:57But we 100% understand. Don Henley's going solo.
- 26:01That's. It that's it, he may pop up.
- 26:05He may pop up and have his own solo.
- 26:07It could be, like you said last week, a complete and total
- 26:10retribution for what we laid out and proposed.
- 26:15Or it's not. Yep, he said.
- 26:17He, he, he said I'm out, I'm out.
- 26:19So I'm out. But.
- 26:21I'm out, but we did not say that.
- 26:23By the way, everybody like we got a he sent us both very nice,
- 26:29long, respectful texts of It isn't about any of what we
- 26:34proposed or any of that. He had already made this
- 26:38decision before we had made Jr. made the decision to make a solo
- 26:43show, which didn't affect us. But as far as like he can still
- 26:46do a solo show and we can do this.
- 26:48I did tell him this. I said look, we fully expect you
- 26:52whenever we go live. And if y'all don't know Tigs
- 26:55tonight, the plan is to go live at 7:30 on Thursday nights.
- 27:01That's just what we've done for a long time.
- 27:03I intend to keep that up. So jump in, come join the chat,
- 27:07all of that. Jr. is usually traveling on
- 27:10Thursdays, but when he can jump in, he'll come in.
- 27:13It's going to be a looser show now to where maybe there is dead
- 27:17air. Maybe I just read some questions
- 27:20and we don't have anything for like I actually don't talk for
- 27:24maybe 10 seconds and I think for a second that kind of stuff,
- 27:28which is something I'm not used to, but I'm going to take myself
- 27:31out of the comfort zone over on Tigs tonight a little bit.
- 27:35Plus just bring trending topics and stuff, you know, stuff like
- 27:39that. But I told Blasey dude, please.
- 27:42And you got the link anytime you want to jump in there, please
- 27:46do. I know everybody would love to
- 27:49see you hear from you. It would be a treat for me.
- 27:52It would be a treat for our fans and our audience out there.
- 27:56So they didn't respond or say anything, but I got a feeling
- 28:00that we're, it just, we're not done seeing Blasey.
- 28:04I don't think that. I don't think we're done seeing
- 28:06Blasey. We're just not going to seem
- 28:09every week or every 14 days or whatever.
- 28:12And that's another thing, like you mentioned, Jr. we're going
- 28:15to go with a little more quality than quantity.
- 28:17Yeah. You may not get this Bubba show
- 28:19every single week. You may, you may though you may,
- 28:23you may or you may not. We're going to, we're going to,
- 28:26we're going to make this work. I want us to both get a little
- 28:29bit ahead with our with our one thing into the show format.
- 28:33And I think we're not going to have a format lined out tonight.
- 28:37We're going to let that format above.
- 28:40But one thing that I think we should both start to bring to
- 28:43this show. Once we have this content like
- 28:47you have Morgan Wallen's tour manager, you're going to have
- 28:49another guest or something that you talk about on your show.
- 28:53Same over with me. We.
- 28:55Bring the best. Of those things to this show
- 28:59where we play the video or play the play the clip play the sound
- 29:04bite we talk about it we talk about you know those types of
- 29:08things and I think that kind of that segment of the show would
- 29:12be a lot of fun so that the you the listener that are out there
- 29:15listening to Bubba army network know a little bit more about
- 29:18what we're doing in our side projects and you know just and
- 29:21then still and we'll. Still comment.
- 29:23I mean when you when something funny comes up or something
- 29:25interesting that you want to put a video up and we watch it and
- 29:28then we comment on that, you know for sure and we still plan.
- 29:32I still plan. I think we haven't talked about
- 29:34this. I still think every now and then
- 29:36it won't be every single show because it's a little easier for
- 29:39us to be a little bit looser, honestly, when we don't go live.
- 29:44And I think that gives you guys a better show because some of
- 29:47the things that we may go off on a tangent on maybe necessarily
- 29:52everything that needs to be heard out there.
- 29:55So yeah, your boy does edit a little, a little bit from time
- 29:59to time. Some things do need to be
- 30:01edited. So it gives us a little more
- 30:03freedom. But I think at least once a
- 30:05month we'll go live. Whatever.
- 30:08We don't know the night. We're not going to say the
- 30:10night, but we'll let you know ahead of time that we're going
- 30:13to go live tonight. Record above a show.
- 30:15We want y'all to be a part of it.
- 30:17And I think that's a that's going to continue like we've
- 30:19been doing. It won't be every single show.
- 30:21We never promised it to be every single show.
- 30:23I was thinking. Something real quick I was
- 30:25thinking about on my show, a segment I didn't do this past
- 30:28week, so I dropped the ball on that, but I'll do it again when
- 30:30I get back next week is I used to do it on the Justin Moore
- 30:33podcast. It was the number one song on
- 30:36the day you were born. So what year you got 7870?
- 30:428. Wow, what a What was the number
- 30:44on this one? I I.
- 30:45Know it but I forget it I I this was on staying alive it was on
- 30:50this country radio this is country radio.
- 30:52This is the Jr. edition. This is the country, right?
- 30:55I had radio. No.
- 30:56And they're always so. Somehow fitting to the situation
- 31:02the person it's some usually there's a tie in.
- 31:04It's like really wow. How about in resident All right,
- 31:07let's see if you can guess yours and usually it's the case.
- 31:09Give me some clue. Give me some This is this is a
- 31:13female. She comes from a family of of
- 31:19talented people. She was probably best known.
- 31:24I tell you what was really cool, There was an episode of the
- 31:27Almost got away with it about, I don't know, 10 years ago or so.
- 31:30There was a, there's a TV show called I almost got away with.
- 31:33And there was this guy who stole her tour bus and went down to
- 31:35Daytona and hung out on the track during the race and all
- 31:38that, claiming that he was that was her and her bus and this and
- 31:41that he got and then they finally tracked him.
- 31:43He pulled over trying to get directions back the Interstate
- 31:45and pulled over to a intersection and the person he
- 31:49was talking to trying to get directions was a hooker and they
- 31:51were watching the hookers. So that's the only reason they
- 31:53like run the number on this tour bus and then they bust him and
- 31:56Daytona had been stole for weeks from Nashville bus lot.
- 31:59Very interesting. It's yeah, it's the whole
- 32:02stories on on a a show called almost got away with it, but
- 32:05there's a documentary on it too. But this was her bus that he
- 32:09stole and went down to Daytona. She's probably most known.
- 32:14She's probably most known for her long, long, dark hair.
- 32:18Oh. Damn it, I'm not far off in the
- 32:22Barbara Mandrell. You're not.
- 32:23You're not. But I can't think of her.
- 32:25Name. But I can see her.
- 32:27Her first name was also the name Crystal Gayle.
- 32:30There you go. There you go, Crystal Gayle,
- 32:33let's go. You know, you know, and.
- 32:36And the name of this song. Oh, and I don't know the name of
- 32:39the song. And the name and I didn't know
- 32:41that. I don't even know this song and
- 32:42that's rando. And this is the 80s buddy.
- 32:44I'm sure it's a gem 78. Yeah.
- 32:48Oh, the 878, yeah, Oh yeah, this is still big bunch of strings on
- 32:52it, I'm sure. But this song is so fitting for
- 32:54your emotion, for us doing the show change here.
- 32:57The song was called Ready for the Times to Get Better.
- 33:02What are the chances of that? Being the name of the show?
- 33:05What? I've got.
- 33:06I've never. When I finish this.
- 33:08Show tonight that is going on Spotify.
- 33:11I'm going to jam that ready for the time to.
- 33:13Get better by crystal Gale when little tiggy came into this
- 33:16world and your parents were so. Happy.
- 33:19That this little, perfect little baby was here on this earth and
- 33:21Jesus gave him to them. That the song that he let me
- 33:24number one that week was Crystal Gale's Ready for the Times to
- 33:29Get Better. And you came in and said, let
- 33:31this party start, baby, let's go.
- 33:32He's here. Let's go.
- 33:34I'll have a podcast in 47. Years and we'll talk about this
- 33:37again, yeah. Yes, Crystal Gale will reappear
- 33:41in my life. And then now you don't have to
- 33:42hear the song and you're going to have to go find.
- 33:44I'm sure it's on YouTube, find a clip of guy steals Crystal
- 33:48Gale's tour bus and goes to Daytona or something like that.
- 33:50It's hilarious. Dude, this really happened.
- 33:52This. I have this crazy little guy.
- 33:54Yeah, he had escaped somewhere and was on the run and he end up
- 33:57on the Interstate and saw the. He was just, he was kind of like
- 34:00that movie. There's a movie called Run,
- 34:01Ronnie. Run I've.
- 34:05I've heard of it. I hadn't seen him.
- 34:07Oh my God, this guy. You can't.
- 34:08Catch him. He just runs every time
- 34:09somebody's trying to get him, he just runs.
- 34:11Ronnie just run Ronnie run. So that's kind of like this guy.
- 34:14Every time they try to catch him he just elude him somehow.
- 34:16He was a little guy and he's wiry and could climb like a
- 34:18monkey and and fit and stuff and he was he could crank anything
- 34:22work on any kind of mechanical. He was just a but he was like a
- 34:26thief. I don't know they were stealing
- 34:27like big he was stealing like track like big backhoes or
- 34:29something commercial equipment. I got to watch and.
- 34:31Then he end up on the run. And then he end up on A and all
- 34:34the and all the bus lots in Nashville are right off the
- 34:37Interstate. They're they're all right, right
- 34:38off the Interstate because they're huge lots.
- 34:40And you want to be close to Interstate because you're you
- 34:42know, we drive big tour bus around town.
- 34:43So he he somehow hitchhiked to there and walked down there and
- 34:47walked there. So you the driver for this bus,
- 34:49he goes, yeah, that's me. All right.
- 34:50Well, keys are up there. He knew how to drive and he
- 34:53takes off of Crystal Gales bus next.
- 34:54He knows at Daytona on the infield.
- 34:56That's saying he was supposed to get with part with parking
- 34:59passes and credentials on the infield in Daytona because he's
- 35:02all the That's crazy. Bullshitted his way to.
- 35:04Go the airplane. That's insane.
- 35:07Insane that I am. I love it.
- 35:09That was fun. And what?
- 35:10And what good and see, that's why I always think this is fun
- 35:13because it's something you wouldn't really know and it's
- 35:15interesting something yes, let's.
- 35:18Let's bring this I chop it up about.
- 35:21You know, I'm be I see some of the other things I'll have and
- 35:24I'll go down a couple of them and we'll play the we'll play
- 35:26that This will be normally got to bring this into your show.
- 35:28You need to. Bring this over to this show.
- 35:30If you don't put it in yours. Yeah, we'll do it.
- 35:32This is fun. We'll do it here too.
- 35:34Yeah, and, and what we did and what I'll do is I'll have a if I
- 35:37have a guest on during the show, I'll call it the road report and
- 35:40I'll get in, tell us going on the road, you know, that kind of
- 35:42stuff. You're in that way.
- 35:43Ask them. This one I do is we'll do a
- 35:45Mount Rushmore. We always did this on Justin's.
- 35:46We would ask each person what their Mount Rushmore of country
- 35:49music was. So we I've spun it to where it
- 35:54doesn't necessarily. I'm still going to ask that
- 35:56some, but it's going to be the Mount Rushmore of, you know,
- 35:59bands or solo artist or types of ice cream or venues or whatever.
- 36:07We decided Mount Rushmore, you're what you're going to put
- 36:09on the Mount Rushmore Pro Wrestling.
- 36:12Yeah. Who would your Mount Rushmore
- 36:14pro? Wrestling be tiggy that's put me
- 36:15on the. Spot I mean, obviously I I'm
- 36:18going to put Hulk and it's not because of this show, but he's
- 36:21up there. He I mean he really transformed
- 36:23wrestling. I obviously got to put Stone
- 36:27Cold up there. I'm going to put Andre the Giant
- 36:30because he also the way he transformed wrestling.
- 36:34And then as the fourth guy, Ric Flair, I mean, that's we're the
- 36:36same age we have. To do.
- 36:38I mean, you know, we picked the same.
- 36:39And as much as I'm not like Hogan now, and I don't even
- 36:42really like going back and watching this stuff, but yeah.
- 36:44And Andre the Giant was. Really.
- 36:46A short run, yeah, but when we were.
- 36:48When we were that prime age to get hooked, that was that was
- 36:52it. And all those stars in that era
- 36:54to me, and the only other ones. And.
- 36:56And that's what we always say on the country music when there's
- 36:58only room for force, you can't expand.
- 37:00But for me, I mean, Undertaker, I was like, how do you leave an
- 37:04Undertaker off, you know, And how do you leave A and then the
- 37:07other people, like, how do you leave the rock off?
- 37:09Yeah. How do you leave seen off?
- 37:10How do you leave? You know, But then you can even
- 37:13go back and argue how? Do you not Triple H sting?
- 37:17How you not putting? Sting on there.
- 37:18You know I mean there so anyway, it's it gets crazy.
- 37:21So you can't that maybe make an. Argument for DDP No.
- 37:23So you have to break. It down in specifics you have to
- 37:26go you're personal or best because of what they're best for
- 37:30best in ring worker, best this and that, you know, best
- 37:33champion, best gimmick, you know, so but anyway, we'll do a
- 37:36Mount Rushmore section of the show, probably something along
- 37:39those lines, a top three or something like that.
- 37:42And then another one that'll be fun is cell phone cell phone
- 37:48cred. Who's the biggest name that
- 37:51people would know is name and number?
- 37:53Do you have in your cell phone 0?
- 37:55That is a good one. I gotta think too, like I don't.
- 38:03I thought about this the. Other day 'cause somebody asked
- 38:05me and then I named somebody and and then I realized, no, I have
- 38:12this I actually have this dude's number and my number in my phone
- 38:16right. I'm gonna be honest with you,
- 38:17Jr., probably as far as like one touch away.
- 38:20It's you at this point of like you're a one touch away from
- 38:26multiple celebrities. I do.
- 38:29I've got governor's numbers. That's what I was going.
- 38:32To say probably a governor, I would say you probably have.
- 38:34I don't. Have the current because I even
- 38:36for me as. Many as I've got a governor's I
- 38:40mean, I'm glad I got so and so's number, but a governor I.
- 38:43Go I probably. Have to go with that is my is
- 38:47someone of my top ones there? Yeah, for sure.
- 38:50Bubba I mean, yeah, you know Seth, I'm going with Seth for.
- 38:54Mine Seth Money. Seth Money?
- 38:56Yeah, in the house. I mean, I know that Brad
- 38:59Johnson. Yeah, yeah.
- 39:01I mean, they're Super Bowl winning quarterback.
- 39:03Yeah, you'll see one. Sometime like it.
- 39:05Well I forgot I had their number or something because mine's all
- 39:07over the place and it just depends.
- 39:09I'm in the same. I don't have Justin's but.
- 39:11If I did, it would be him. I mean, Justin Moore's a pretty
- 39:14damn big phone number. Jr.
- 39:16Well and see, that'll be fun. When I'm with with people from
- 39:19the that in the music business or have a touch or touch or live
- 39:22in that world of some way, there's no telling who they've
- 39:24worked with, who they hung out with, who they met along the
- 39:26line. You know, somebody's might be
- 39:28this manager and like, oh, Doc McGee, that's a good one to
- 39:30have. I don't know if I've got Docs
- 39:32now. I got Snake Sabo's number
- 39:33though, the guitar player for Skid Row who's managed works for
- 39:36Doc Mcgee's management company. But and then some of these, you
- 39:39don't know if the numbers still work.
- 39:41You know, like I'm know I got a new number for Jamie Johnson a
- 39:44while back, his old number. I had text for the last 10
- 39:46years. They've not been going to him so
- 39:50well. He's not a big chit chatter on
- 39:51the Texas anyways. Probably won't have him on.
- 39:54The show, will we? Yeah.
- 39:55Well, you know. So they'll be, they'll be.
- 39:58So when I ask that it'll be interesting to see someone who
- 40:00has, you know, see what, see what people have.
- 40:02It's just an interesting thing or just the most interesting
- 40:04number you have, you know, it's like.
- 40:06I got my high school basketballs coaches, too.
- 40:08I still talk to that sucker, you know, or something.
- 40:10Just rando like, yes, yeah. I love that though.
- 40:13I think those are great. I think those are great for your
- 40:16show and if you forget one week, bring them over to our show.
- 40:19These are fun and well, and you know, for.
- 40:20Your show, I still want to contribute on that level and
- 40:23that's what we'll dive more into.
- 40:24It seems like the people have spoken and they love the food
- 40:26content. I'm going to leave more into the
- 40:28music on my show. So obviously I'm always going to
- 40:30throw a couple of music tidbits out on the Tigs bit show.
- 40:33Yes, but I'll lean, I'll lean into the the the guest stuff for
- 40:40help on that side with people I meet along my way in conjunction
- 40:43with thinking about the music, like the Macklemore boys from
- 40:45New York. I still want to have them on
- 40:47their their game. They won't do it.
- 40:48Yeah. Oh, that would.
- 40:50Be the the folks who are catering.
- 40:52Up there, yeah, they're at the White House.
- 40:55They're at that, they're at they're on today show, they're
- 40:58on the all that stuff. They're they're in everything.
- 41:00So, But they'd be down and they'd be fun.
- 41:03That would be like an overlap with those guys, you know, like,
- 41:05who's y'all there? They'd be like, I actually got
- 41:08Bill Clinton's number or something random, you know?
- 41:11Yeah. Dude, that'd be great.
- 41:13I'll look when I'm out traveling and stuff and I meet people that
- 41:16would be interesting for, for that, that angle of the show.
- 41:19I'll make sure to try to rope them in because that's what I
- 41:21thought. Everybody, you know, just having
- 41:23a guest on to have a guest on, it doesn't mean anything.
- 41:25That's why I only brought on a few that we did was because they
- 41:28all meant something for the time we wanted to have them on.
- 41:30I always told people we were doing Justin's that you know,
- 41:33when you going to get me on, I'm like, I don't know, you got
- 41:35something you're trying to hawk or promote.
- 41:36Let's do it then, because not that we don't want to talk
- 41:39anyway, but let why not make it count when you need some push
- 41:42for something, you know, I mean, if it works out that way or if
- 41:45you got something you want to get out, this is a force or you
- 41:48can get some. It's coming up.
- 41:50You've got to, You're not touring, you know, you got a new
- 41:53album coming out. Yeah.
- 41:55Your show should be a. Haven for that on that angle,
- 41:57when somebody's got a festival coming out, you're one of the
- 42:00main people they're going to go on your show, talk about their
- 42:02festival. They flip that and use that for
- 42:05stuff but and get out ahead of it and think you know that cross
- 42:08promotion. Make it make sense there's.
- 42:11No reason for come on, you know, three months after the festival
- 42:15and there's going to be 9 more months for what happens again.
- 42:17Maybe do it the week after and talk about what all went on,
- 42:20because then you know what I'm saying?
- 42:22Just make them count. Basically make it all count.
- 42:25And that goes back to. Quality over quantity and just
- 42:28all of that. That totally Oh yeah, that makes
- 42:30sense. That totally makes sense.
- 42:33Dude. I think, I think y'all are here
- 42:34and out there that and we're brainstorming again, like we
- 42:37said at the top of the show, we may ramble, we're going into
- 42:40we're just going to brainstorm tonight about the direction of
- 42:43where we want to go and we want y'all to be a part of listening
- 42:47to us do this together. One thing I didn't say at the
- 42:52top of this show, Jr. that needs to be said.

- 43:28all hear this, go back and listen to it.
- 43:30Comments had a couple videos do really well.
- 43:33One's gone viral about smash burgers.
- 43:36I'm going to talk a little bit about some of the comments 7080
- 43:43pretty much the only people who started commenting once it got
- 43:46over a hundred 200,000 views are the negative nellies of the
- 43:50whole deal. Of course they.
- 43:52Hate Smash? Burgers and I find it hilarious
- 43:55and I have ideas I'll talk about that on that show.
- 43:57But y'all go check that out. Drop us a comment.
- 44:01Let us know. And I didn't get that out at the
- 44:06at the top of the show, Jr. at all.
- 44:08But but you brought Crystal Gayle into the conversation.
- 44:13And this happened to me at the grocery store this evening.
- 44:18And I knew we were going to talk about some of the stuff.
- 44:21Didn't know what we talked about, but I knew we were going
- 44:23to talk about the news that's going on with our show.
- 44:26And I thought that was plenty. But you know, your boy, I've got
- 44:30to come with a little bit more to the to the shows, just in
- 44:34case we ran out of something to talk about.
- 44:36And I overheard the most hilarious conversation.
- 44:40I'm checking out, getting a couple pops, and I hear this
- 44:45young man talking about this, this young attractive girl
- 44:49that's in the grocery store. I don't know her age, but she
- 44:53had said something about somebody calling her a cougar.
- 44:57And I'm guessing this girl's under 25 years old at best.
- 45:03And these guys are under 30. And so they're like the they
- 45:08start talking about Cougars and what a cougar is.
- 45:14And for whatever reason, your boy couldn't help himself.
- 45:18This is in a grocery store. I said no bro y'all got it
- 45:22wrong. Cougars are from 30 to 50.
- 45:24Any chick that's 30 to 50 and then just an immediately highly
- 45:30disagreed with that assessment. And then here we are, homeboy
- 45:35comes out checking in or checking out.
- 45:39And he went, he kind of leaned in and he went, well, dude, I'm
- 45:42dating a 21 year old and I'm 50. I'm like, I look at him.
- 45:48But I said, I think you're just bragging, bro.
- 45:51I mean, you know, she ain't a cougar or not at all, No.
- 45:57So like that's a rel. Maybe you're the cougar, or
- 46:00whatever you are. Jaguar Manther.
- 46:03He's the yeah. He is.
- 46:05According to ChatGPT, he is a silver fox.
- 46:09Silver fox. He's a.
- 46:10Silver Fox. Yeah, and he was a silver fox,
- 46:14actually. Yeah, totally.
- 46:17But it made me think. And I told the guys he wrote it
- 46:21down on. He gave me a pen.
- 46:22He's like Nate what? I told him.
- 46:24I said, dude, I have a podcast. This is a perfect podcast
- 46:28question. Hadn't thought about this
- 46:30definitely using this tonight and he's he's like, what do you
- 46:35I love podcasts. What's your podcast?
- 46:36I wrote it down on a on a little piece of paper for him, but it
- 46:40made me start to think what is a cougar?
- 46:44And so, you know, knowing what I do, I had to ask ChatGPT what
- 46:49I'd say I. Would say, what do you say a
- 46:52cougar is? 4550.
- 46:55Up, yes. Yes, you're you're right.
- 46:59I'm like a grown woman. Like a grown ass woman.
- 47:02Grown ass woman, Yeah. So I kind.
- 47:04Of got my middle. I mean basically.
- 47:06Like an older than me, I mean, I'm 45.
- 47:08So I mean, I think I think I'd say a Coug would unless you're
- 47:12young young. But yeah, I would say mid 40s
- 47:14probably would be the earliest on a Coug.
- 47:16What's GPT say? Well, that's it, but.
- 47:18First of all, that's exactly what the argument became at the
- 47:22not the argument, just the conversation became in the
- 47:25grocery store. When I said 30 to 50, it was
- 47:28like, Oh no, the kid was about I call him a kid.
- 47:33God, I'm getting old hit. The young man was almost 30.
- 47:37He said I'm not 30 yet. I'm not calling a 30 year old a
- 47:40cougar. I'm almost 30, but I'm not
- 47:43calling a 30 year old a cougar. I was like, when you're 47, you
- 47:46would and then he's like, yeah, whatever.
- 47:49And then that's when that's when the dude showed up, the silver,
- 47:54the silver fox when he showed, when he showed up.
- 47:58But they kind of agreed like that and and what ChatGPT says.
- 48:03I agree too after leaving, I disagree with myself in the
- 48:07grocery store. I've left it too broad.
- 48:09I've been selling too much insurance and looking at
- 48:11insurance bans and making them a 30 to 50 year old.
- 48:16A cougar is an older woman, usually 40 plus, who actively
- 48:21pursues younger men. She doesn't have to be a mom.
- 48:25It's more about being assertive and confident in the dating
- 48:30game. An example of 45 year old single
- 48:33woman who dates 25 year olds equals a cougar.
- 48:38Yeah, yeah. That makes sense.
- 48:43I'd agree with that assessment. What's your tigs bits of?
- 48:45The week right there, there it is.
- 48:48Go ahead. Well, I did then.
- 48:50I had to go, well what's the difference in a cougar and a
- 48:54MILF? A MILF.
- 48:58As we all know what that word means is an attractive mom,
- 49:03which I knew this. But regardless of who she dates,
- 49:06the term is usually used from an outsider's perspective.
- 49:10Someone saying she's a MILF, not necessarily about who she's
- 49:15into. So an example is a 30 year old
- 49:19mom who still looks like a snack.
- 49:22GPTS words wow equals MILF gotcha.
- 49:27So she still looks like a snack. She's a MILF, gotcha.
- 49:33Yeah, there you go. There you go.
- 49:35There's your, there's your PSA for the week.
- 49:37Yeah, there's your PSA. Hey.
- 49:38Another one I just turned, I just turned on to check on.
- 49:41I forgot. I was thinking to to chat, but
- 49:44then I realized we're not live. But I look my buddy Dylan Frymer
- 49:47in Atlanta, GA, who I've talked about on here before and I want
- 49:50to have him on his. He's an interesting guy.
- 49:53He does. He runs.
- 49:55A pro wrestling promotion. He works for DDP, he works for
- 49:58AEW. He is a he's my buddy.
- 50:00He's a big Burley joker. He's about as wide as my desk.
- 50:06He's he's huge. His arms are huge.
- 50:08He's not the tallest guy on Earth, but he is.
- 50:10He is like he looks like a wrestler.
- 50:11He is just broad. But I love Dylan.
- 50:13He's great in this video. But he lost his dog like a year
- 50:17and a half ago. Juju came up missing, couldn't
- 50:20find her Chip, couldn't find her.
- 50:22All this, a lady calls him and found his dog and they reunited
- 50:26him like yesterday or the day before.
- 50:28It's on. That's what he's on Fox first or
- 50:30Fox News in Atlanta and all that he posted.
- 50:33That's what made me think it made it to.
- 50:34I know it was on a lot of different outlets here recently,
- 50:39but yeah, it's a big deal. He's crying like a baby and he's
- 50:41huge with these big Steeler tats and stuff.
- 50:43So it's kind of funny. But love, love Dylan and I'm so
- 50:46happy he got his pup back and she's back home with him and
- 50:49they're together again. It was a heartfelt moment and
- 50:52I'm happy for him. But yeah, so I want to give a
- 50:54shout out to Dylan on that. JRI think this was.
- 50:56Another good show. I don't know if we want to call
- 50:59this. I mean, this is the
- 51:01continuation, this is Part 2, and it will be called most
- 51:05likely the deconstruction of Tigs Bits Part 2.
- 51:09But I don't really think that should be the name of this.
- 51:11I think the name of this show is the reconstruction of Tigs bits
- 51:17I wrote down over here. There's a song and I want to say
- 51:20it's Jimi Hendrix with the Band of Gypsies and the drummer,
- 51:24which I'm, I'm, I'm lost. I didn't, I'm not thinking right
- 51:27right now. He's a famous drummer, but I
- 51:29can't think of his name right now.
- 51:31But song going through some changes.
- 51:33That song going through some changes, man band, a gypsy song.
- 51:38That's just what I remember. That might be wrong, but that's
- 51:40what I remember. I'm going to look it up on
- 51:41YouTube when we get done, But I think going through some changes
- 51:43might be a name of a podcast. Just going through some changes
- 51:48because it ain't none. It ain't none too crazy.
- 51:50We just going through some changes.
- 51:53I think that's just right. I kind of like that.
- 51:55I kind of like that because there's nothing.
- 51:57There's no there's no big grab there.
- 51:59It's not like Blacy's came over to my house.
- 52:01There's no drama. Threaten.
- 52:04Me or not, you know, it's like no.
- 52:06And we, we're all brothers. We knew what we knew, we, we
- 52:08knew kind of what was going on anyway.
- 52:09So it kind of worked out for the best.
- 52:12So it's really just that it's just, it's just we're going
- 52:15through some changes too crazy. It's it's, it's good.
- 52:19It's it's like it's got a great groove.
- 52:20Everything's rocking all along. But we got Jimmy on guitar.
- 52:23It's going to be great. Great.
- 52:24Show everybody. We'll see y'all soon.
- 52:27See y'all.
