  We're back, all three of us. 3 Amigos, Riley Man.
• 0:02
  We're going down to fight El Guapo this week here on the TIGS
• 0:06
  BIT Podcast. So welcome back everybody to
• 0:17
  Tigs Bits. I'm Jr. the handler.
• 0:19
  That's Tigs. That's blazy blazy blase.
• 0:21
  We're all back this week. I had to miss last week guys.
• 0:25
  Sorry I was out. Y'all know if anybody doesn't
• 0:27
  know. I had a little instant at home,
• 0:29
  had a little water leak issue, one of my walls flooded part of
• 0:32
  my house. We got it all straight.
• 0:33
  Could have been a lot worse. So had to get that wrapped up.
• 0:36
  So I missed last week's show, but it sound like you guys had a
• 0:40
  good time because I keep seeing this stuff pop up on social
• 0:42
  media and on some of my little text threads.
• 0:44
  So I haven't got a chance to catch up.
• 0:46
  So I might need a quick recap of last week before we even get
• 0:50
  into this show today. Well, number one, number one,
• 0:53
  very happy to have you back, Jr. There's a little decorum now,
• 0:57
  possibly. Here in Tigs Beds, we may be
• 1:01
  getting out of the slums a little bit over here, but man,
• 1:05
  it's been a crazy ride once again.
• 1:07
  You know Bubba, the Love sponge drama story?
• 1:11
  Things that just evolve around around Bubba.
• 1:15
  We somehow or another end up kind of in the middle of it.
• 1:18
  We talked about it just last week when we were.
• 1:21
  We were just doing, doing our show.
• 1:23
  It came up and then the next thing you know we we had to drop
• 1:26
  an emergency podcast this past weekend.
• 1:28
  It's blowing up on Twitter and Facebook and all all of that
• 1:33
  stuff. And we, you know, it's been a
• 1:36
  it's been a wild ride. But we have to think Mr. Blase,
• 1:41
  Blase the pimp on the blimp himself, Mr. Chad Blase, the one
• 1:45
  man posse for. Absolutely.
• 1:50
  Putting this to the front. Oh, yeah.
• 1:52
  I mean, like, like we talked about, we figured out every time
• 1:56
  Jr. is away, the boys will play. I mean, we.
• 1:59
  Just like oh. It's like it's like daddy.
• 2:01
  Left town like what? Can we do?
• 2:03
  Let's go get into something. Oh, I know.
• 2:06
  Let's go crawl down into that gutter over there and getting
• 2:08
  some wild action. You know, y'all like the band
• 2:13
  guys. It's exactly what we are.
• 2:15
  I mean, I think that you probably dealt with this your
• 2:17
  whole career in the music industry.
• 2:19
  Yes, We're like the band guys you got, you know, you've always
• 2:22
  got to be watching us. So that's why y'all got me on
• 2:25
  here. What?
• 2:25
  My podcasting skills. Y'all, just need a damn tour
• 2:27
  manager. For your show.
• 2:29
  We need handling we. Keep our ass in line, man.
• 2:33
  Well, apparently not because you're whatever you're doing is
• 2:35
  working and anything we can get to catch people to talk, chit,
• 2:38
  chatting and stay involved and engaged is what we're trying to
• 2:41
  do with all things Southern and cultural.
• 2:43
  And yeah, give me a little breakdown.
• 2:45
  Like I said I haven't got to catch up.
• 2:46
  I saw a couple little snippets here.
• 2:48
  I mean it is is quicker as long as you want.
• 2:50
  But give me the little, give me the the tip.
• 2:53
  Sheet Monday evening I I get this tweet on my phone from this
• 2:56
  guy that used to work for Bubba the Love Sponge on his show.
• 2:59
  Name's Tuttle and it's very, like, Cryptic man.
• 3:02
  I mean, I'm like, I don't know what he's talking about.
• 3:04
  It's something about Tampa radio versus Orlando radio and Real
• 3:08
  Vague and I was couldn't find any reference points.
• 3:11
  Whatever. Moving on.
• 3:12
  So then the next day I realized there's this video had leaked of
• 3:18
  what turns out to be Bubba the Love Sponge Girlfriend going to
• 3:23
  a meet and greet at like a gun shop for Mike Kalta.
• 3:28
  And so this video shows her when it picks up.
• 3:32
  She is recording him talking in an interview like face to face,
• 3:35
  3 1/2 feet away. Not harassing.
• 3:37
  Running around the room she'd actually been granted.
• 3:40
  Permission to do this? She threw up some good softball
• 3:43
  questions. They say like, you know, just
• 3:44
  And then she asked him, you know, something about the Hulk
• 3:47
  Hogan incident. And then he just turned
• 3:50
  immediately. Was like, how pathetic is your
• 3:52
  life? You're going to come in here and
• 3:55
  do this? And she says.
• 3:57
  How pathetic my life. How's yours.
• 3:58
  And he snatches the phone out of her hands.
• 4:00
  I did see that clip. That's the clip.
• 4:02
  I saw the guy like an Applebee's.
• 4:05
  And then he's filming her at the table and.
• 4:07
  She tries to get her phone back. Yeah.
• 4:09
  Everybody's just degrading her the whole time, you know,
• 4:11
  calling her the C word and all this other stuff, it's terrible.
• 4:14
  And then she reaches and she's, he's trying to hold the phone
• 4:17
  away from right here, right? She reaches up, try to get the
• 4:20
  phone, dude. He takes a forearm.
• 4:22
  To her chest and shoves. And what's funny that they said
• 4:26
  he was creating space, right? He shoves his forearm into her
• 4:29
  chest and then he kind of retracts and then really goes in
• 4:33
  with a hand right to the face. I mean, even the cop said she
• 4:35
  had bruised lips then that he kept her phone, kicked her out.
• 4:38
  She was trying to get her property back.
• 4:41
  Man, it's it's crazy. And it doesn't matter who she
• 4:43
  is, who she mother. She was just trying to get her
• 4:45
  day on the phone. She could have she, yeah.
• 4:47
  She shouldn't kick and do that to a woman.
• 4:49
  You're a £400 dude, right? So, right, yeah, and we ran this
• 4:52
  all down the other show, so yeah, so that evolved.
• 4:54
  And we ended up talking about that because it was still early
• 4:56
  in the process. This is Tuesday, so we still got
• 4:58
  limited information. And then on Friday.
• 5:03
  At 11:00 or ten, 11:00 that morning, she was supposed to go
• 5:06
  at 1:00 on Friday to meet with the district attorney's office
• 5:09
  because they've been deciding what charges they were going to
• 5:11
  press. This has been going on for like
• 5:12
  8 weeks. This investigation, Bubba's been
• 5:14
  quiet about it. Hadn't said anything, hadn't
• 5:16
  been, you know, degrading anybody.
• 5:18
  It's that word, right? He didn't do anything.
• 5:21
  And then they called her at 11 and said, you know what we
• 5:23
  found? You were the aggressor in this.
• 5:25
  We're not going to charge him. And basically, you're lucky
• 5:28
  we're not charging you. And they, they flipped like,
• 5:31
  flipped on a dime. So obviously somebody got to
• 5:33
  them. Somebody something happened
• 5:34
  there. What?
• 5:36
  And so we had to get on Friday. When I found that out was like,
• 5:39
  Brandon, we got to get in here and do an emergency podcast on
• 5:41
  this. You know, this is, this is an
• 5:43
  evolving story that's really, I can't believe this happened.
• 5:46
  And now Couch has been off the air all last week and even since
• 5:49
  Friday, even when the DA's office announced that the
• 5:52
  backlash on the Internet's been monstrous.
• 5:54
  You know, against this, you know, I mean.
• 5:58
  Absolutely. And then even today, he was
• 5:59
  still off the air. So I don't know what's going to
• 6:01
  happen there. And it's just well deserved.
• 6:03
  You don't treat women that way. And it's it's like at a
• 6:06
  different level of, you know, he's done this before, you know,
• 6:09
  with different things so well and just like I said, I mean and
• 6:13
  you know, the doing the right thing aside, legally you can't
• 6:18
  just take someone's property. Especially like a question just
• 6:20
  to be in that space with you and something.
• 6:23
  I mean I mean you know I mean that's and then the security
• 6:26
  step itself yeah that's why well we need we need to make sure if
• 6:29
  there is something that transpires over the next couple
• 6:31
  days or anytime y'all let me know.
• 6:33
  I love I won't know much about the topic but I'd love to listen
• 6:36
  in we'll do another emergency pod because we're at of of of
• 6:40
  beyond becoming one of the world's fastest awardwinning
• 6:43
  podcast is what we're on pace to be.
• 6:45
  We also are probably already the forerunner of the most accurate
• 6:52
  and credentialed podcast out of the Bubba Army franchise, I
• 6:57
  would think. I would say we are the action if
• 6:59
  when it comes to the Bubba Army world, I think, I think Blacy is
• 7:02
  like the number one news broadcaster for that world.
• 7:05
  Oh, 100%. Because people want the truth.
• 7:08
  They come here, They, you know, they get everybody's opinion
• 7:10
  somewhere else, but they know they come here.
• 7:11
  You're just getting brass tacks. We will provide updates.
• 7:14
  Here lately, Absolutely. It's great to be a service to
• 7:16
  the Bubba Army. I love that, absolutely.
• 7:18
  And they're awesome. We appreciate their support.
• 7:21
  Man, that's that's unbelievable. That's tamp Florida.
• 7:24
  That's our people at South Florida.
• 7:25
  That's Florida in general. That's our people.
• 7:27
  Blacy's. That's the good enough.
• 7:29
  It's we back. Our brothers play good enough
• 7:30
  place to get enough for us. Whatever we need to do.
• 7:32
  I love it. So.
• 7:34
  So yeah, let's, uh y'all either way on our text thread.
• 7:37
  If anything pops up, we'll jump on that.
• 7:39
  Because something's gonna come out of there.
• 7:41
  Something's gonna come squirrely.
• 7:42
  They're gonna figure out whose pocket they got, who got talked
• 7:45
  to who, where the buck stops. Some local somebody will take
• 7:49
  this on the investigative journey ride down there and you
• 7:52
  know, the somebody's going to figure some stuff out here
• 7:55
  because they're not going to let Bubba's not going to let it go.
• 7:57
  We're not. And as long as everybody else
• 7:59
  does their job we'll make sure to report the news and facts
• 8:01
  here that we do, man. Well, yeah, well that's that's
• 8:04
  cool. I like I said, I hate, I missed
• 8:05
  it. But I'm glad you guys got that
• 8:07
  in there. I did.
• 8:07
  I saw that video and I saw a couple of things on Twitter and
• 8:12
  well, as we talked the other week the the, the.
• 8:14
  X. Twitter X.
• 8:17
  Still Twitter, but I saw some things.
• 8:18
  But that's a good breakdown. So now now more in on the know
• 8:21
  on that. Hey, Speaking of things, and I
• 8:22
  didn't have this in our notes, but just while I mentioned this
• 8:25
  to Cherise yesterday, because this could be something we could
• 8:28
  do from time to time. If there's something that, you
• 8:31
  know, everybody's about to hear about for the next little bit
• 8:34
  and it's coming. If everyone hasn't seen it
• 8:36
  already, you know what I mean? There's always something ever so
• 8:38
  often like this, you know. Well, the new one now I'm sure
• 8:41
  you guys have seen is the guy Oliver Anthony, who sang.
• 8:46
  Actually, actually I have him in my notes.
• 8:49
  I wanted to get your take on that guy.
• 8:52
  Well, very interesting. Yeah.
• 8:54
  I mentioned to Cherise last night, we went to the Brew
• 8:56
  Sunday Fun day, came home and we were listening to some videos
• 9:00
  and I was like, hey, we, we were taking turns.
• 9:02
  She play a video. I play a video.
• 9:03
  And I said this is not one of our pics, but I'm just playing
• 9:06
  this now because you're going to hear about us over the next
• 9:08
  couple of days or weeks or ever, how long until the next thing
• 9:11
  comes along. But just so you know, when
• 9:12
  everybody's you'll know what they're talking about and play
• 9:14
  to the video. Yeah, I thought it was great.
• 9:16
  I mean it's just, that's great, you know, great poignant song.
• 9:19
  It's it hits a lot of homes with everybody right now because it's
• 9:23
  he's nailing some nails on the head, some nails on the head,
• 9:26
  so. Yeah, he is.
• 9:28
  He got and and validated this past weekend with the great
• 9:31
  Jamie Johnson at some some event they played on stage.
• 9:35
  I mean, yeah, dude, he's yeah, he's moving.
• 9:37
  He's he's moving quick, man. It's happening.
• 9:40
  I can't imagine what the world is like for that dude right now.
• 9:45
  At this moment, from where he was at one week ago, right.
• 9:48
  Well, you know, what did you and I that talked on the last time
• 9:51
  we had the pot did a podcast together.
• 9:53
  We talked about Zach Bryan talking about his journey.
• 9:56
  All right, Joe Rogan, he put that video up.
• 9:59
  He was in the Navy and a week later it would viral.
• 10:01
  His world changed, you know? Yeah, four months.
• 10:04
  It's. A similar deal, Similar.
• 10:05
  So this guy, this guy I'll be interested in, will will
• 10:08
  chronicle it here along the the way at the Tigs Bits podcast.
• 10:12
  But I would be surprised if I give this guy at most I say 12
• 10:16
  months. He's headlining Red Rocks.
• 10:17
  I just say I hadn't even. I don't know anything about what
• 10:19
  you're talking about. I've been so head deep into a
• 10:22
  balance between my job and covering the DJ situation down
• 10:26
  in Tampa that I don't even know what you're talking about.
• 10:29
  I just had to Google it and I see a guy playing.
• 10:31
  Is he playing a banjo or something?
• 10:32
  Yeah it just play playing like a dobro guitar and but he just
• 10:37
  it's a it's a real just honest song it makes a couple
• 10:41
  statements about you know that's not the song is rich man north
• 10:45
  of Richmond so talking about the DC the politicians obviously and
• 10:48
  stuff but it you'll have to check it out because even
• 10:50
  Cherise at first halfway through the song she's smiling think oh
• 10:53
  what are you playing me now some of my hillbilly stuff I like and
• 10:56
  then halfway and then about halfway through it I can see her
• 10:58
  smile went away and after over she was like.
• 11:00
  I can't wait to say that out. That's pretty, pretty strong.
• 11:02
  Pretty strong, yeah. Definitely.
• 11:05
  Definitely powerful. No, no doubt about it.
• 11:08
  And yeah, I look forward to seeing, seeing what happens with
• 11:11
  that guy's career. Of course, everybody listen, if
• 11:14

  maybe the end of last week this popped up somewhere and it had

  9,000,000 views when I was. I mean one version of it.
• 12:48
  You've probably seen it. If you're watching it's but so

  but but we'll be able to sticks we'll be able to talk about it
• 12:54
  again in a new light. Yes, you be.
• 12:56
  I've talked about here at the first time, but we'll be able to
• 12:57
  talk about where it's progressed in a week.
• 12:59
  Yeah, I Jr. I got a question for you.
• 13:02
  Is that is that Idaho turned sideways shooting a bullet that
• 13:04
  is that's this is a hat I got in Idaho one time.
• 13:07
  From the show that is. Is exactly what that is.
• 13:11
  OK, wow. And I don't know if.
• 13:14
  I don't know if that's part of Idaho like they.
• 13:16
  Have a little island somewhere outside of Idaho but.
• 13:20
  North or? I don't think they do, but yeah,
• 13:23
  that is fantastic. That's pretty cool though.
• 13:26
  I like it. I like it, yeah.
• 13:27
  I'm trying to think I got. This like Idaho Sideways and I
• 13:31
  hope I'm not. It's been a while.
• 13:32
  I've had this hat while, but I think I got this from the the
• 13:36
  twins, Duncan and Hunter that have a podcast which I need to
• 13:42
  put that up. I hadn't checked on those guys
• 13:44
  in a while's Climb the Ladder podcast, twin guys from Boise
• 13:49
  area that I met and I believe they gave me these hats.
• 13:52
  They I need it. I've listened their podcast,
• 13:54
  been a couple of months. They do a lot of sports stuff.
• 13:56
  They're up in that area that cover a lot of northeast
• 13:58
  baseball and football and just different things.
• 14:01
  A really cool little podcast and we've done.
• 14:05
  They're fans of music too. We met at a show up there one
• 14:07
  time and then they started a podcast during Pandemic.
• 14:09
  Same time we did and we stayed in touch, but I believe that's
• 14:11
  where I got these hats. I'm going to give those guys a
• 14:12
  shout out either way. Climb the Ladder Podcast Cool
• 14:15
  podcast to check out and Idaho representative.
• 14:19
  Oh yeah, I really like that. Well, I tell you, you running
• 14:23
  out of running into them, I'm sure out on the road and and
• 14:26
  just out touring and all that. What's the latest with Justin
• 14:30
  Moore? Don't we have a new number one?
• 14:33
  Or had a had his? Yeah, his 12th or 13th?
• 14:36
  Number, 112th #1 as of last week.
• 14:39
  Wow. You mean whiskey with Priscilla
• 14:43
  Block with number one of the country charts.
• 14:45
  So that'll be #12. Yeah.
• 14:48
  I remember on a show previously we were talking about this and
• 14:51
  you were talking when this song just started releasing and then
• 14:54
  I think his. Producer or somebody at the time
• 14:56
  said, man, I think you got a number one hit on your hand and
• 14:59
  he was like thinking, I'm not sure you know what I mean?
• 15:02
  And then suddenly here we are, it's just probably been eight
• 15:04
  weeks ago. It's.
• 15:05
  Not great, so man. I don't know how long it's been,
• 15:07
  at least, but here it is #1. It's weird how they can kind of
• 15:11
  pinpoint that, but I know the first time I heard it's one of
• 15:13
  those songs you hear the first time and you almost feel like
• 15:15
  you've heard it 20 times. You know what I mean?
• 15:18
  You're it's already kind of you're feeling it.
• 15:19
  You don't have to listen to it to finally get it.
• 15:21
  So no, that's that's a great song it's got.
• 15:23
  A hook. That's the beauty of it, It's
• 15:25
  it's got that familiar sound and good.
• 15:28
  It does, you know, good content, clever writing, you know.
• 15:31
  And then his voice, he's a great singer.
• 15:33
  She's a great singer and you know it.
• 15:35
  Can't go wrong you know and they don't always you know.
• 15:38
  I mean you know you never know and it's but it's it's a it
• 15:42
  takes a village for sure and it all.
• 15:44
  But it all starts with a song that's what tell everybody
• 15:46
  everybody wants to make it Just if you write a song good enough
• 15:51
  you will make it whether if the. Song has to be good and I mean
• 15:54
  and there's probably been a lot of really really good songs and
• 15:59
  that we're just sang by the wrong artist or just didn't have
• 16:03
  the right feel. Somebody you know that if you
• 16:06
  can only imagine if such and such you know they're sang this
• 16:09
  song and there's so many songs you'll there's songs I don't I
• 16:13
  can't think any off top of my head right now.
• 16:15
  I mean I pull some out but there are songs that you guys have
• 16:18
  heard and you like that and you know them from this artist but
• 16:21
  it actually was an album cut for another artist like ten, 20-30
• 16:25
  years before that. I hate that you know you no one
• 16:28
  ever knew that they did it first, you know or it couldn't
• 16:30
  be like a year later. I know there was a there's a
• 16:33
  Sammy Kershaw song and then it like 2 years later Tim McGraw
• 16:36
  cut and it was #1. Or there are some of these songs
• 16:39
  that sit around for 30 years in a publisher's office before it
• 16:42
  finally finds somebody listens to it again and it works for
• 16:44
  somebody. That was the that was one of
• 16:47
  those was it Alan Jackson? Jimmy Buffett song That was song
• 16:50
  was 20 something years old when they read, when the publisher
• 16:53
  turned him on to it, like that song had been written.
• 16:55
  For 25 o'clock somewhere, that's crazy.
• 16:59
  So that kind of stuff happens. So just write the good song and
• 17:01
  everything else. If you sell it, if it's somebody
• 17:02
  else records it however it works.
• 17:04
  It'll get you doors open, but the song is where it's at.
• 17:06
  And then to me, like we talked about with Coach, some are all
• 17:12
  authenticity, man. You know, if someone's if it,
• 17:15
  you know, especially as us adults.
• 17:16
  I think kids, I mean, because we got duped too, you know, easy to
• 17:19
  dupe into thinking something's good when it's really not.
• 17:21
  But it's an adult and that's the only way I can look and listen
• 17:24
  to things these days is, is it's got to be something real, you
• 17:27
  know, If it's BS, it's a bunch of crap and you're like, yeah,
• 17:31
  next there's A and there's enough good stuff out there to
• 17:33
  listen to you go find, listen, whatever you want.
• 17:39
  No. I don't.
• 17:37
  That's one thing that kills me, why people argue and talk about.
• 17:39
  Those like help. Just go listen to something.
• 17:41
  You like there's so much change there.
• 17:42
  Why are you wasting time? Change it or yeah, change go
• 17:45
  this something good. Are they?
• 17:46
  Are they argue with you because they don't like your kind of
• 17:49
  music? Like, well, OK, I mean, I really
• 17:51
  wasn't asking you. I don't really care.
• 17:53
  You don't have to tell me you don't like it.
• 17:55
  I'm. I know you don't like it.
• 17:57
  If you really want to get down to it, I'll bury you in a verbal
• 18:00
  assassination here with why yours really is shit.
• 18:02
  Mine's good. Trust me.
• 18:04
  If we got to get there, we can do that.
• 18:06
  You know, for damn sure we don't want nobody.
• 18:09
  That's now. Nobody wants to do that.
• 18:11
  No, if you're getting that heated over music, that's a bad
• 18:14
  thing. There was preseason football is
• 18:16
  happening now in the NFL. The Saints won yesterday.
• 18:20
  They beat the defending Super Bowl champions in a preseason
• 18:23
  football game. As time expired.
• 18:26
  So, look, I mean, I don't want to get too fired up in the
• 18:29
  preseason, but they're going 17 and oh, that's obvious.
• 18:33
  And then Derek Carr's going. Derek Carr's to do Drew Brees.
• 18:40
  They don't even need to play this season, man, so they're
• 18:44
  just going to cruise. It's not even going to be tough.
• 18:47
  But I mean, I know you guys are like me probably too.
• 18:50
  Any fantasy, if you guys do fantasy, I want.
• 18:52
  We've got to. I've got to do my drafts in the
• 18:54
  next week. So Saturday on the road.
• 18:56
  So we got a league mandate. If you don't attend the draft in
• 18:59
  person, you're out of the league.
• 19:01
  Serious, serious league. And used to be a road trip every
• 19:05
  time and they stopped that about the pandemic.
• 19:08
  Oh wow. But it was a road trip.
• 19:09
  Like was New Orleans. Like I had you had to go.
• 19:11
  If you didn't go, you're out of the league.
• 19:12
  And uh. But you know I think this year
• 19:15
  we didn't redfish talk. I was going to go to Louisiana
• 19:17
  and do ours last weekend, but the blood situation, we had to
• 19:21
  abort our trip to Louisiana, so they moved it around.
• 19:25
  They want to do it at 5:00 on a Saturday.
• 19:26
  Obviously I'm at work on a Saturday.
• 19:28
  I've got a security meeting at 5:00, so I guess I'm going to
• 19:30
  try to do mine around 3:00 this Saturday for my keeper league,
• 19:33
  which is a lot more involved. Just a regular league, you know?
• 19:37
  But when is the What's the first game?
• 19:39
  What's kickoff? Thursday, September 7th, 7th.
• 19:43
  That's the start of the NFL they keep.
• 19:46
  Itching that Thursday night or Saturday, whatever it was a
• 19:48
  Friday game. There was a Thursday game.
• 19:49
  There's a Wednesday. Pregame, pregame, pregame.
• 19:52
  And they'll have a hitter on one of those.
• 19:53
  You know, they book them way out ahead of time, but they'll have
• 19:55
  one of those games will be a hitter.
• 19:57
  It'll be a couple of teams sometimes, sometimes not.
• 19:59
  I'm looking forward to kind of getting into that.
• 20:02
  I'm ready to start tailgating. We're going to do some stuff as
• 20:06
  this season goes along. I'm going to try.
• 20:10
  I don't want to over promise and under deliver here but I do
• 20:12
  believe that I can nail down a couple of these little short
• 20:17
  videos or something to put into the podcast with with our
• 20:20
  tailgating crew which you know we're crazy.
• 20:24
  It's huge you know something some fun stuff.
• 20:27
  So, so we're definitely, definitely I'm looking forward
• 20:30
  to football season man. It's hard to I'm still trying to
• 20:34
  like wake up and believe that it's really here.
• 20:36
  Pike videos are starting to come out from colleges.
• 20:39
  I've seen Troy's you you you pass that along to me this past
• 20:44
  weekend. I mean if that got me fired up.
• 20:46
  We're in the vet. Lock the gates, dude.
• 20:48
  That was like such a good line. That's that's got to be picked
• 20:50
  up on this year. Turn the lights out and play
• 20:53
  some have smoke and some lights and like lock the gates and big
• 20:57
  noise over the stereo. Yeah, or the system like.
• 21:01
  And then again, Oh yeah, y'all are going down.
• 21:08
  I cut my grass with a purpose that day, You know, I got out.
• 21:11
  It was hot. We hot.
• 21:12
  Good. Good.
• 21:13
  I'm glad it's hot. Let's get hotter.
• 21:14
  You know what I mean? Bring it.
• 21:15
  Let's do it. I love it, man.
• 21:17
  I love it. Lsu's done.
• 21:20
  Theirs. It'll make you run through a
• 21:21
  wall with Colin. Baton Rouge.
• 21:24
  And they incorporated Garth Brooks and that big concert and
• 21:27
  all that into it. You know, everybody, everybody
• 21:30
  does these hype videos. They get you hyped up, man.
• 21:33
  Oh. Yeah, they get you hyped too.
• 21:36
  We play Stephen F Austin, man. What's Who's Troy's first game?
• 21:38
  They're a tough school out of Texas, so you bet.
• 21:41
  You better be ready to play that first week though, you know, I
• 21:43
  mean, that's the team coming in for them.
• 21:44
  That's like, hey, this is a big time.
• 21:46
  This is an opportunity to knock on, you know, a bigger school
• 21:49
  and and you go in there and you're not prepared, you're not
• 21:52
  ready. That's the team to come in there
• 21:54
  and whip your butt. You know what I mean?
• 21:55
  So. So you better be ready.
• 21:58
  I mean, and you got to be ready every week, you know, so.
• 22:00
  Looks like the. It's gonna be fun.
• 22:01
  The first big, big game. I mean not knocking any of these
• 22:04
  other games, but the the first ranked matchup looks like LSU in
• 22:07
  Florida State Five. I mean, I think that's gonna
• 22:10
  mean. I think that's going to be the
• 22:11
  game of the the weekend, at least as far as as far as we,
• 22:15
  yeah, yeah. They're playing Sunday games on
• 22:19
  the 1st weekend. Yeah, they now play Sunday.
• 22:21
  They're playing in Orlando, so LSU and Florida State are
• 22:24
  playing in Orlando. So the last two games LSU will
• 22:27
  have played were both. It will both be in Orlando the
• 22:30
  bowl game and then now the opener, opener, top ten match up
• 22:35
  to start the season. It doesn't get any better.
• 22:37
  The prime time at 8:00. I have an issue that night.
• 22:40
  I mean, obviously, we know what I'm going to do.
• 22:44
  But man, Godsmack, we've already talked to it.
• 22:48
  We've talked. We've talked about how those
• 22:51
  incentives have come into Baton Rouge.
• 22:53
  Now they're trying to bring bigger acts and get stuff, you
• 22:56
  know, kind of get all that rolling.
• 22:57
  Seems like this is started and Godsmack is coming to Baton
• 23:02
  Baton Rouge. I want to go see Godsmack on a
• 23:05
  Sunday night though, the same time that LSU and Florida State
• 23:10
  play. That's why.
• 23:11
  We shouldn't play college football on Sunday.
• 23:13
  No, that's exactly right. And everybody in the Raising
• 23:17
  Canes River Center is going to be wanting to watch the LSU game
• 23:20
  with while the kind there will be no cell service.
• 23:23
  There's no chance I'll know what's happening.
• 23:26
  There are no TV's in that arena. Concert man terrible.
• 23:29
  It really is like. Somebody playing, and I mean you
• 23:32
  know any place in the South, any town in the South, if your team
• 23:37
  is playing, we know it ain't gonna.
• 23:40
  I look at Tuscaloosa, Auburn like you don't, you know, I hate
• 23:43
  it for Godsmack. They're never going to want to
• 23:45
  come to Baton Rouge again. I mean, you know, just because
• 23:49
  there ain't going to be nobody there.
• 23:50
  You schedule weddings around games and stuff, you know, I
• 23:53
  mean, that's just, I mean you have times and stuff and that's
• 23:56
  just, yeah, that's wild that I don't think we should play
• 23:58
  college football on Sunday. It's just my opinion, but yeah,
• 24:01
  I I agree. I'm sure it's for television.
• 24:04
  It's like, oh, of course it is TV, but of course it is.
• 24:07
  I'm not even sure what network is broadcast in that game, but
• 24:10
  it's absolutely for TV, you know we don't have.
• 24:13
  It on here I can tell you what's it what I just saw that was
• 24:16
  interesting and. You know, it ties into SEC and
• 24:20
  and definitely Southern, but they were original SEC tank, SEC
• 24:23
  team, Two lanes kicking off the Season #24 spot.
• 24:26
  Oh wow. Second season last.
• 24:29
  The second week that, yeah. The second week they play Ole
• 24:32
  Miss, who's ranked 22 as of now, so that could be a.
• 24:36
  Two lanes. One of those schools, Man, I
• 24:37
  wish they'd get in Georgia Tech. Those original SEC schools.
• 24:40
  I wish they'd get back to prominence.
• 24:41
  Which Georgia Tech's been good, and it's big, you know, big
• 24:45
  enough school, Two lanes. A big school too.
• 24:47
  In a while, they wouldn't absorb them back in the SEC.
• 24:49
  I know it's for it's just like everything we do.
• 24:52
  Everything. The wrong damn reasons that they
• 24:53
  ain't. They ain't coming in for an Uber
• 24:55
  conference right. Yeah.
• 24:57
  You know if there's anybody going to backdoor slide in at
• 25:00
  this point, it's going to be somebody like Florida State and
• 25:02
  Clemson. I would a big school, yeah.
• 25:04
  It'd have to be, I mean, like we'd rather have Hawaii than a
• 25:07
  team that's actually in the Southeast of the United States
• 25:09
  of America. Yeah, it's ridiculous.
• 25:10
  Speaking of Hawaii, man, those those Maui, those fires in Maui
• 25:15
  are just absolutely, God, absolutely terrible, man.
• 25:19
  Folks floating in the ocean flee into the water and stuff.
• 25:21
  So just, you know, thoughts and prayers out to those folks.
• 25:25
  I've been seeing seeing a lot of that over the weekend and it is
• 25:28
  just, yeah, that's. That's terrible.
• 25:30
  And I don't know what you know, it does what we can do to help.
• 25:33
  But if anybody can go on, I'm sure, and and find a terrible
• 25:36
  organization to send some stuff, I can tell you one place you
• 25:40
  can, you can start. You can start with the Cajun
• 25:42
  Navy. And you know, the Cajun Navy is
• 25:45
  there, there. I've seen this on social media.
• 25:48
  I've seen it on some interviews as well and you know, I mean I I
• 25:53
  know where that money goes being here from Louisiana, being here
• 25:58
  when it all started through the floods and the stuff like that,
• 26:01
  the hurricane recoveries, just everything you know and and when
• 26:05
  Trump was in office you know they he, he, he, he announced
• 26:09
  the Cajun Navy. He actually helped to deploy
• 26:13
  them and they and use them as a resource and they've been that
• 26:16
  way. So you know, I don't know what
• 26:18
  kind of, I'm not telling you anybody to go start to donate
• 26:22
  money to the Cajun Navy or anything like that.
• 26:24
  But that's a good place to start to look to see how you can help,
• 26:29
  you know help folks out there that are being affected by this.
• 26:33
  And there are a lot of people that are being affected by it.
• 26:36
  It's a it's a it's a bad deal, the deadliest US wildfire in
• 26:41
  history or at least in the last 100 years.
• 26:44
  You know, so it's a something that wasn't supposed to happen
• 26:48
  there they they're threatened by volcanoes, earthquakes,
• 26:51
  tsunamis, hurricanes, things like that.
• 26:54
  But wildfires were at the bottom of the list of things that could
• 26:58
  potentially happen and and of course here here we are.
• 27:02
  So it's crazy world out there. You know, we're not going to get
• 27:06
  into a climate change debate over here.
• 27:09
  Yeah, or anything like that. But they're things like this
• 27:12
  that are happening more and more often, and it's, you know.
• 27:15
  I was trying to dig into that the other day, and of course it
• 27:17
  didn't take very long before I started.
• 27:19
  All these conspiracies about these directed energy weapons is
• 27:23
  what started the fire in Maui. You know, it's like.
• 27:26
  They're trying to claim laser beams from outer spam.
• 27:28
  Like golly, people will clean. I mean I really think a power
• 27:31
  pole falling down due to 80 mile an hour winds seems seems
• 27:36
  plausible to me, you know, I mean, but God bless them, they
• 27:40
  don't have any warning, you know and and they say that they have.
• 27:44
  Yeah, the warning signals didn't come off as irons didn't go.
• 27:47
  And then the fire, then you got like high winds from, you know,
• 27:50
  just all that water surrounded. So you get that wind coming
• 27:52
  through there? They couldn't do anything.
• 27:54
  They couldn't really respond. You try to go throw water in
• 27:57
  front and you goes nowhere. I mean, they just had no, not a
• 28:00
  chance. That's terrible.
• 28:01
  It is. It is, Van.
• 28:02
  Our hearts go out, Our hearts go out to them.
• 28:05
  And and then and then in other news, you know, we'll start to
• 28:09
  kind of wrap the wrap the show up here.
• 28:11
  We've talked about a lot of stuff today.
• 28:12
  I mean there's been just a lot of a lot going on.
• 28:15
  You know, we usually have a themed type of show.
• 28:20
  Lately we've had so much dadgum news that every week when we get
• 28:23
  together we just have to talk about that stuff.
• 28:25
  So that's that, you know. It's just professionally
• 28:31
  breaking in, you know? Who knows, who knows what where
• 28:34
  may be an emergency pod on something this week.
• 28:37
  There's no telling. But but the Elon Musk Mark
• 28:41
  Zuckerberg fight? It looks as if it's being
• 28:44
  postponed. Not that that I really ever
• 28:47
  cared to begin with. I don't know if y'all cared
• 28:50
  either. I.
• 28:51
  Kind of did care, yeah. I was kind of intrigued.
• 28:53
  I wanted to see these two getting like the Colosseum and
• 28:56
  yeah, battle it out. I mean, why not everybody else
• 28:59
  gets the money, goes to charity or whatever and you know, they
• 29:02
  get to share it on their social media platforms and what not.
• 29:06
  But I I I'm going to tell you, man, I am, I'm not in outside of
• 29:11
  this UFCMMA style fight. I'm not really a huge Zuckerberg
• 29:18
  fan at all, as we've we've discussed on the show.
• 29:21
  But I think he'd whip Elon Musk's ass in this deal, I'm not
• 29:26
  gonna lie. Yeah, I think he's been trained.
• 29:28
  So I'm so he's been training a. Lot Whoever's got the training
• 29:31
  and who's in shapes going win Zuckerberg he's you know he's
• 29:35
  he's not a black belt I don't think I don't know what belt he
• 29:38
  is but you know he's he's done jujitsu I believe he's being
• 29:43
  trained by some of the best in the world in in MMA and I've
• 29:48
  seen some of the videos of him doing.
• 29:49
  I mean that's been that they're impressive.
• 29:52
  You know I mean he's he's definitely and as he said in the
• 29:56
  statement you know he's taking the sport seriously.
• 29:59
  He's really wanting to truly compete.
• 30:02
  Elon Musk, on the other hand, you know he's worried about X,
• 30:07
  Twitter, Tesla and all those things.
• 30:10
  And you know, he, I think he reached out to him over the
• 30:14
  weekend that he wanted to to train in his Octagon in his
• 30:18
  backyard. Maybe it was a little bit
• 30:20
  halfhearted. Seems as if Zuckerberg seemed to
• 30:24
  take it as a he was bowing out then That's why we're why we're
• 30:28
  at where we're at with it. But but I I believe if it were
• 30:31
  to go down and they truly fought like it was a real deal fight, I
• 30:35
  don't think it would take long and I think Zuckerberg would win
• 30:39
  easily. Yeah, so I mean, and I get it,
• 30:42
  right. I mean he's he's been training.
• 30:43
  He's, you know, he he does this, he he fights.
• 30:46
  You know what I mean? He trains.
• 30:48
  But dude, I was watching so. Elon, first of all, is a lot.
• 30:53
  Bigger guy doesn't mean anything, right?
• 30:54
  I mean, a smaller guy can beat the bigger guy all the time.
• 30:56
  But dude, I was watching him the other day, he did a a thing on
• 30:58
  Twitter and he was testing his live feed.
• 31:01
  And while he's just sitting there talking on his live feed,
• 31:04
  he picks up a £45 dumbbell and he's sitting there just curling
• 31:07
  it like it's nothing and just sitting there and I'm laughing.
• 31:11
  And I was like, just picked it up and I got to realize and I
• 31:13
  was like, dude, this is a strong man.
• 31:15
  Like did you go try to curl some 40 fives.
• 31:17
  I mean that's some weight and he made and and I'm not saying he
• 31:20
  even works out that much but he, I think he's got some one of
• 31:22
  those dudes that just built a little bit different
• 31:24
  strengthwise. I think he that right there kind
• 31:27
  of just went dude if he gets his hands on this cat he's don't get
• 31:30
  away from him. That's my opinion now.
• 31:32
  I could be wrong. He'd go in there and take him
• 31:33
  out and have him, you know, you know.
• 31:37
  In an armbar in 2 minutes, I'd be over with.
• 31:39
  I don't. Know if he want must has any
• 31:40
  kind of grappling or any kind of he's going to have to have some
• 31:44
  kind of submission you know what I mean.
• 31:45
  But if he has any kind of wherewithal what to do with what
• 31:48
  he's got, then yeah, he's got a chance.
• 31:50
  But and also he might train like a he might train like a madman
• 31:53
  and he just don't post it. He might do.
• 31:55
  Very true. Look, I tell you what he was
• 31:57
  doing those curls. I was like, you could tell this
• 31:59
  dude. Right this way.
• 32:01
  Like, you know what I mean? It was like, and usually it's
• 32:03
  all loose shirts. You don't notice anything about
• 32:05
  him, but when he curled that weight, it's like you saw.
• 32:08
  Something that's doing something.
• 32:09
  Hold on this dude. There's there's more inside
• 32:11
  there than what we'd realized, I think.
• 32:13
  But he did hurt his back. He did wrestle a sumo wrestler a
• 32:17
  few years back and and in that deal it compressed a couple of
• 32:21
  his discs in his back. And of course, he's talked about
• 32:25
  some kind of shoulder injury or something.
• 32:27
  You know, I mean, the bottom line on the whole deal is, I
• 32:32
  mean, who really cares? But I do care.
• 32:34
  I mean, you know, it's real fun. It's it's mindless entertainment
• 32:38
  with two of the biggest cats on earth at the moment, and they.
• 32:42
  He's going to taunt him tonight. He's driving, he's got a self
• 32:44
  driving car and he's programming to test this some some new car
• 32:48
  that he's working on right now or something that Tesla's doing
• 32:50
  and they're programming at its first trip's going to be to he's
• 32:55
  like. We'll see if he answers the
• 32:57
  door. That was his tweet.
• 32:59
  It's so awesome. I mean that is the funny stuff
• 33:02
  with must dude, he he is, he is funny and he is constantly on
• 33:08
  it. You know just he is just
• 33:09
  constantly, absolutely on it. We'll wrap up here.
• 33:13
  But this is very important news. Very, very important from Blacy
• 33:17
  today from my understanding he was able to go and have lunch
• 33:24
  and give us a review on back Beach barbecue in Panama City.
• 33:29
  And of course we've had we've had JD Marsh who's with
• 33:33
  Bregibaum on the show multiple times talking about all of his
• 33:37
  favorite places in Texas and everywhere else and he has more
• 33:42
  than once on this show said how much he loves back Beach BBQ.
• 33:47
  So you were able to you and you had been there before you and I
• 33:50
  talked off there before we before we did this, but give us
• 33:54
  some thoughts what what do you think about it today?
• 33:57
  Man, I'll tell you what, So I've been there.
• 33:59
  It's been a while. And I've told people, like I
• 34:01
  said on the show, people ask that BBQ, man, it's a really
• 34:03
  good BBQ place down there. But to me, I went and ate BBQ.
• 34:06
  It was just good BBQ. It was good.
• 34:08
  But I didn't by hearing JD Marsh when he said on that show, like,
• 34:11
  hey, outside of Texas, like this might be the best Texas BBQ
• 34:15
  place. There he is.
• 34:17
  And I was like, whoa, that's a huge statement.
• 34:18
  I got to go back in there thinking, you know, like
• 34:20
  thinking a little bit different mindset and like, I don't look
• 34:23
  around more and like, understand this place a little bit more in
• 34:25
  depth. So yeah, man.
• 34:27
  So I get there today. I was going to get, I was going
• 34:29
  to do the ribs and then brisket. And then it was just like, I
• 34:32
  have so much food. Like the quantity was
• 34:34
  ridiculous. And I was like, now you know,
• 34:35
  I'm just going to brisket sandwich and I got a side of
• 34:38
  collards. And dude, those collards, I'm
• 34:41
  like, I couldn't get past the collards first.
• 34:43
  Like, they were so good. Like they were done right.
• 34:45
  I love collards, man, too. And it was so good.
• 34:47
  And do that brisket was, I mean, just money.
• 34:50
  The meat was moist. It was tender.
• 34:52
  It was like, you could that smoke in there, that flavor.
• 34:55
  It's everything that you want. So I'm sitting there eating my
• 34:57
  sandwich and I'm observing. I've took the pictures of the
• 34:59
  menu board and just kind of checking the whole place that
• 35:02
  looking out there. All their big pit smokers
• 35:04
  they've got like. I mean 123450 well lined up out
• 35:08
  there into this like shed and this dudes out there working
• 35:11
  well, suddenly this guy comes Wheeling a cart in there and on
• 35:15
  the cart are like these big metal trays, you know pans with
• 35:19
  something in them and the top of them, they're moving like a
• 35:23
  looks like a waterbed, you know what I mean?
• 35:25
  Just like if he's moving, I was like, what what is that?
• 35:28
  It's like this yellow brown goodness wave.
• 35:31
  And I was like, is that macaroni and cheese that coming off that
• 35:34
  smoker, you know? And he takes it to the back.
• 35:36
  And I did. I was so kind of stunned by
• 35:38
  still bubbling each of them. And I was, oh man, I should have
• 35:41
  got a picture of that. Well, he comes back out and I
• 35:43
  was like, hey man, what was that that you just brought in?
• 35:45
  He said, oh, that's our Mac and cheese if you never had it.
• 35:47
  And I was like, I don't think I have.
• 35:49
  He says it's the best side we have.
• 35:50
  He said, hold on a minute. And he walked back there and he
• 35:52
  got me a little cup and gave me a, you know, probably a good
• 35:55
  half serving of it. Oh my God.
• 35:56
  That Mac and cheese did was ridiculous.
• 35:59
  And what's funny, he's talking to me.
• 36:00
  I got these collards in my mouth.
• 36:02
  He's like. Have you ever had a Mac and?
• 36:04
  Cheese number but these. Collards right here are on
• 36:08
  points, what I can tell you. And so he was super cool, man.
• 36:12
  So anyway, I did that. Then I went out there and talked
• 36:15
  to him for a couple minutes and his his name was Daniel, that he
• 36:17
  was awesome. He was.
• 36:18
  Now he was kind of showing me everything, telling me, you know
• 36:20
  kind of the whole deal there he's throw, he's loading wood
• 36:23
  and I mean it's it's real deal. It's just total legit.
• 36:26
