- 0:14Speaker 1: Pull up onto the microphone, Mr.
- 0:16Speaker 3: Bradshaw. Went up there catching rainbow trout.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Oh, yeah? Killed them.
- 0:22Speaker 3: I've been up there since our fourth year.
- 0:24Speaker 1: You fly fish?
- 0:25Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 0:26Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 0:27Speaker 3: But you're not fly fishing. You come back in July for...
- 0:31Fly fishing. This is fly fishing, but you've got a
- 0:34fly bobber. It's a fly. Then you've got that tiny,
- 0:39tiny bug. I mean, you can't even see it, and
- 0:43that's what you catch them on.
- 0:44Speaker 1: So you're using a fly rod, but you have a
- 0:46bobber and a little tiny fly.
- 0:49Speaker 3: The bobber is basically a big moth or something that
- 0:55holds it up.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Right, right. It's a bobber, cork, whatever.
- 0:58Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:00Speaker 1: So it's just a different kind of fly fishing.
- 1:03Speaker 3: What you're doing because you're in a boat, you know
- 1:06how fast that water's moving.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Right. And you just go.
- 1:09Speaker 3: Down through there and they move it to the jets
- 1:12and jetties and stuff.
- 1:14Speaker 1: So you find like the pools where they're waiting. Yeah,
- 1:17you go and you just.
- 1:17Speaker 3: Find it goes boom. Oh, brown trout. Yeah, it was
- 1:23a good time.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Yeah, trout fishing is very fun.
- 1:26Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.
- 1:27Speaker 1: Fly fishing is a completely different thing. It's very skillful.
- 1:31Speaker 3: I like fly fishing, too. We did that last year
- 1:34in July and didn't have nearly— I mean, we didn't catch
- 1:40hardly anything, to be honest with you. Yeah. I mean,
- 1:42maybe five or six a day.
- 1:45Speaker 1: That's a lot for fly fishing.
- 1:47Speaker 3: We caught almost 110 hours.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Really?
- 1:50Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:51Speaker 1: A hundred trout? That's crazy.
- 1:53Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:54Speaker 1: Don't say where you were. People are all going to
- 1:56swarm that place. No, I don't.
- 1:57Speaker 3: I didn't bring my phone.
- 1:58Speaker 1: I'd show you pictures. Yeah, it was crazy. Wow.
- 2:04Speaker 3: I'll tell you something funny.
- 2:05Speaker 1: I carry— Yeah, we're filming.
- 2:08Speaker 3: I figured we were.
- 2:10Speaker 1: I carry a baby Jesus with me.
- 2:12Speaker 3: Let me tell you what happened.
- 2:13Speaker 1: You carry a baby Jesus?
- 2:14Speaker 3: A baby Jesus.
- 2:16Speaker 1: Like from the manger?
- 2:16Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:17Speaker 1: It's Jesus. Right. It's Jesus.
- 2:19Speaker 3: We call it baby Jesus.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Okay. Okay? Oh, so it is just grown-up Jesus. Has
- 2:24a beard and everything. Yeah, exactly. Okay.
- 2:25Speaker 3: So we're not catching anything. So I reach in the pocket.
- 2:30I don't know why, looking for my knife. I don't
- 2:31know what I was doing. And I had this baby Jesus.
- 2:35Speaker 1: And I said, oh.
- 2:38Speaker 3: My son-in-law is in the back. I said, I got
- 2:39baby Jesus with me. And I set him on the
- 2:41box facing me.
- 2:47Speaker 1: You ready, Joe?
- 2:48Speaker 3: One, two, three, four, five, six. Six giant rainbow in
- 2:55a row. So my son-in-law's in the back. He's going,
- 2:59turn baby Jesus towards me.
- 3:01Speaker 1: I turned around.
- 3:03Speaker 3: I took baby Jesus toward him. One, two, three, four, five, six.
- 3:10Speaker 1: I went, nah, this. We caught 12 rainbow fish.
- 3:16Speaker 3: Anywhere from 15 to 20 inches.
- 3:18Speaker 1: That's big. Yeah, that's big. That's a good rainbow.
- 3:21Speaker 3: So the guide, I mean, he got a little tripped out.
- 3:28He said, hey, man, you're kind of messing with me here.
- 3:35That's kind of got me a little screwed up here.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Started laughing.
- 3:40Speaker 3: I said, man, you get the power of Jesus in here.
- 3:43So we kept it all day. Before I left, I
- 3:45gave it to him. So he said, I'm going to
- 3:46use this every day. So that's it. It was kind
- 3:49of fun.
- 3:49Speaker 1: I don't think that's something you should use every day.
- 3:51I think that that should be like for special trips.
- 3:53You don't want to ask Jesus every day to help
- 3:55you catch fish.
- 3:56Speaker 3: I don't go fishing every day.
- 3:58Speaker 1: But yeah, you're right. You know what I'm saying?
- 4:00Speaker 3: I didn't need, I wouldn't normally need help. But trout fishing,
- 4:04you don't need help. I'm bass fishing and Yeah, I'm
- 4:08pretty good on my own, but if things get desperate,
- 4:10I'm not, I mean, I don't want to push it.
- 4:11You know what I'm saying?
- 4:12Speaker 1: I don't want to push it. Oh, by the way,
- 4:15Jeff died to me. Say hello. Oh, you know Jeff? Yeah.
- 4:19Speaker 3: I did two years of Better Late Than Never with him.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Oh, I love Jeff. He's a good dude. Solid dude.
- 4:28Man's man. What's with all the whiskey? Did you bring that? Yeah.
- 4:33I was wondering.
- 4:34Speaker 3: You don't drink.
- 4:35Speaker 1: I'll drink. I quit and then I came back. I
- 4:38quit for eight months. Not really like I didn't have
- 4:42a problem. Just health reasons. I decided it wasn't a
- 4:44good thing for you. That's smart. Do you have your
- 4:46own Terry Bradshaw whiskey?
- 4:47Speaker 3: Yeah, we've had it now.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Come on, son. We've got to have a glass of that.
- 4:50Speaker 3: Seven years.
- 4:51Speaker 1: Do you drink? Yes. You better. I drink this. You're
- 4:53selling whiskey. You better. Yeah, I drink this.
- 4:55Speaker 3: Let's have a drink. This is our 12-year that just
- 4:59won all the Golden Awards and Spirits.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Oh, nice.
- 5:02Speaker 3: Yeah, won all of them.
- 5:03Speaker 1: So age 12 years?
- 5:04Speaker 3: 12 years, 13 now.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I was talking with Buffalo Trace about that, and they're like,
- 5:09we have a drink.
- 5:09Speaker 3: Well, yeah, that's what you drink. Once you drink this,
- 5:12you'll stop drinking that, unless they're a sponsor.
- 5:15Speaker 1: They are a sponsor.
- 5:16Speaker 3: Okay, there you go.
- 5:16Speaker 1: And they're nice guys. Okay. And I respect them. I mean,
- 5:19that company's been around longer than the country.
- 5:21Speaker 3: Long. Long.
- 5:22Speaker 1: Longer than America. Long time. They started in 1773. I mean,
- 5:26when you go back to study whiskey. Yeah.
- 5:29Speaker 3: Well, they claimed that Elijah Craig was the father of
- 5:34bourbon whiskey. And they do research, and then they don't
- 5:39have it back that far where they can actually say,
- 5:43because Elijah Craig was a preacher.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Oh, really? Yeah, so that frees me up. A preacher
- 5:47who made whiskey.
- 5:48Speaker 3: Yeah. Wow.
- 5:49Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:50Speaker 3: Anyway, that's award-winning 12.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Jim, can we get some ice and glasses?
- 5:55Speaker 3: This is our original. This is our two-year. This is
- 5:59the original brand right there. We still have that.
- 6:02Speaker 1: What is the original? It's two-year aged? Two.
- 6:05Speaker 3: Then with our yeast, we were able to make it
- 6:08taste like four to six.
- 6:10Speaker 1: Okay.
- 6:11Speaker 3: And then we don't do that anymore. And then this
- 6:14is the good stuff right here. What's that stuff?
- 6:17Speaker 1: This is six-year. Six year? Oh, yeah. So you got 12, 2,
- 6:21and 6. Yeah, actually 12, 4. Can you really tell
- 6:24the difference? Yeah, absolutely.
- 6:26Speaker 3: Oh, I'm going to tell you right now.
- 6:29Speaker 1: This is 145 proof. Whoa.
- 6:31Speaker 3: Okay.
- 6:31Speaker 1: That's a lot.
- 6:32Speaker 3: This is 108, 103.8.
- 6:32Speaker 1: This is amazing. This is.
- 6:47This is a— Why does the older stuff have more alcohol?
- 6:50Is it because of the process of aging?
- 6:52Speaker 3: Yeah, because it's also— this is a bourbon that— it' s a single-barrel bourbon,
- 6:57and when we brought it out, you leave it in there,
- 6:59and this is what it turned out to be. Now,
- 7:01we could dilute it by simply putting water in it
- 7:06and dilute it down. This is 103.8, and it's 51.9
- 7:08proof alcohol. This— this— 149. Bust it.
- 7:20Speaker 1: Out, Terry. Let's go.
- 7:21Speaker 3: If we bust it, how long are we planning on
- 7:23talking today?
- 7:23Speaker 1: Let's talk for a couple hours. We may not be
- 7:26able to make a couple hours. We'll give it our
- 7:28best shot. Okay, we'll do our best.
- 7:29Speaker 3: Who's got a knife? Who can open this?
- 7:31Speaker 1: I don't have a knife here. Jamie got a knife? Oh, yeah.
- 7:36Speaker 3: So we started this.
- 7:37Speaker 1: You know what I noticed coming over here today? A
- 7:41lot of tattoos in here.
- 7:46Speaker 3: Yes.
- 7:46Speaker 1: Yeah. A lot of tattoos. You mean the building? Jamie's tattoo-free.
- 7:51Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 7:51Speaker 1: A lot of tattoos. He's been thinking about getting my
- 7:53face tattooed on his back. Are you still doing that, Jamie?
- 7:56Speaker 3: Is that like a bullseye?
- 7:58Speaker 1: Stand up. We made a deal. I'll do his face.
- 8:02He'll do mine. Oh, my God. Anyway. And I'll have, like,
- 8:05young Jamie and, like, gothic script on my back.
- 8:08Speaker 3: You know, the thing about bourbon, I don't know how
- 8:10to explain it. I don't know why I fell in
- 8:12love with bourbon. I find it to be... First of all,
- 8:16it's the only thing that's—it's only in America. Bourbon is
- 8:22only bourbon if it's in America. Right. And I think
- 8:25it's only bourbon if it's made in Kentucky.
- 8:29Speaker 1: A lot of Kentucky people feel the exact same way.
- 8:31Speaker 3: I mean— you ready?
- 8:33Speaker 1: Yes, sir. Okay. Let's go. Time to party.
- 8:36Speaker 3: I'm just going— this might be the best show you ever have.
- 8:41Speaker 1: All right. I'm excited. Yeah. You will be.
- 8:44Speaker 3: After you drink that.
- 8:45Speaker 1: Let it sit. Smells good.
- 8:46Speaker 3: Let it sit.
- 8:47Speaker 1: It smells good. Let it sit. This is the 12-year-old stuff.
- 8:51And what is it called?
- 8:52Speaker 3: Bradshaw bourbon.
- 8:53Speaker 1: That's the name. Can I see?
- 8:55Speaker 3: Here's the thing about the 12-year-old.
- 8:56Speaker 1: Can I see the bottle?
- 8:57Speaker 3: We only have.
- 8:59Speaker 1: Bradshaw bourbon. Look at that.
- 9:01Speaker 3: We only have 15 cases left.
- 9:05Speaker 1: 15 cases, I think they told me.
- 9:07Speaker 3: So this is a limited edition, and then we have
- 9:10to come out with some new stuff, but This is
- 9:12actually 13 years old now.
- 9:14Speaker 1: So you obviously started this project a long time ago.
- 9:18Speaker 3: Right.
- 9:18Speaker 1: I did. You've been aging it for 12 years. Well,
- 9:21I did. Cheers, sir. Thank you for being here. Here's
- 9:23to you, Joe.
- 9:23Speaker 3: Thanks for having me.
- 9:24Speaker 1: My pleasure. Thank you. What happened? I don't know why.
- 9:28I went to my... Hey.
- 9:34Speaker 3: Wow. You got to let it sit.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Yeah. That's got to kick.
- 9:37Speaker 3: We're going to try this, and then we'll try this.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Okay.
- 9:39Speaker 3: And you'll definitely see the difference. But I was going
- 9:42to my— I went to my dad.
- 9:43Speaker 1: Who's father— Someone's driving me home today. My father's father
- 9:46was an alcoholic.
- 9:48Speaker 3: And I went to my dad prior to him passing,
- 9:51and I said, Hey, Dad, what would you think if
- 9:53I got into the spirits business? And he says, You
- 9:56know what I think. And I went, Well, I'm just
- 9:59asking you. And he says, absolutely not. And I said, okay.
- 10:03So I shut her down. My dad died, oh, wow,
- 10:08it's 12 years ago he died. My mother died two
- 10:12years ago. So anyway, so after his passing, two or
- 10:18three years, four years, I was sitting around and I
- 10:21was trying to, I remember William Cohen, Secretary of State
- 10:25William Cohen, he says, what do you do to make
- 10:28a living? I said, well, I work on Fox. I'm
- 10:30a broadcaster. He says, is that it? I said, well,
- 10:32I'm a horse and cattle breeder. I raise registered cattle
- 10:36and I'm in the breeding business, training business of quarter horses.
- 10:39He said, oh, okay. He says, is there anything else?
- 10:42I said, well, I get public, I speak for corporations.
- 10:47So he was Trying to find out, and he took
- 10:51a liking to me. He says, basically what he was
- 10:53telling me, you should brand yourself and not have to
- 10:55travel so much. Yeah. Because I travel. 250 days last
- 10:59year we traveled.
- 11:00Speaker 1: That's a lot.
- 11:01Speaker 3: That's a lot. But my wife travels with me, so
- 11:03that's good.
- 11:04Speaker 1: That helps. Yeah.
- 11:05Speaker 3: What do you want to do with baby Jesus? Let's
- 11:07sit him right here.
- 11:07Speaker 1: Sit him right there. See if any fish flop out
- 11:10of the sky.
- 11:10Speaker 3: I got him facing you. We'll see what happens. And
- 11:14anyway- And so he said, basically, you ought to brand yourself,
- 11:17get into something that you can. And I said, well,
- 11:19I don't really know anything. I know football. I can
- 11:23talk football. I know how to make people laugh. I
- 11:27know how to give speeches to major corporations and build
- 11:31a program in the speeches.
- 11:33Speaker 1: I know quarter horses. I know how to select horses,
- 11:39show horses.
- 11:40Speaker 3: I know how to train them. I don't do that,
- 11:43but I have a trainer for all that now, and
- 11:45I have people for the breeding part of it. And
- 11:47I said, in cattle, I know the bloodlines and things
- 11:52of that nature, but I got people doing that. So
- 11:54I just got this. I never forgot that. You know,
- 11:58that's William Cole. He's a pretty smart dude. And so
- 12:02we're—I'm home. I think it was kind of a rainy day,
- 12:07and I'm sitting there, and my little brain's going. I'm going,
- 12:10you know— What do you want to do? For some
- 12:13reason I was going, what do you want to do?
- 12:14Because I remember one time I got real uncomfortable because
- 12:18I didn't have a normal job. So I ran into
- 12:21this guy that owned this cosmetic company. And I said,
- 12:24do you have a job? Could you hire me to
- 12:26teach me the cosmetic industry?
- 12:28Speaker 1: And he said, yeah, yeah.
- 12:30Speaker 3: He gave me $ 5, 000 a month. So I had to
- 12:34go to work and put a tie on and a
- 12:36coat because I.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Wanted to be like everybody.
- 12:39Speaker 3: Everybody goes to work but me. I'm playing golf in
- 12:44between speeches, which may be a week, two weeks apart.
- 12:47So I got two weeks of golf, and I just
- 12:50got— When was this?
- 12:51Speaker 1: This was 30 years ago. So 30 years ago, you
- 12:55decided to get into the cosmetics business? Yeah. Just to
- 12:59do something? I wanted to be— I wanted to have a job.
- 13:03Speaker 3: Really?
- 13:03Speaker 1: I know. Wow. I wanted to have a job.
- 13:07Speaker 3: I wanted to be like— I think I wanted to see—
- 13:11I wanted to see how America works. People get up
- 13:15and kiss their kids goodbye and their wives or husbands
- 13:19and they go off to work. And I, for some reason,
- 13:22I felt guilty.
- 13:24Speaker 1: I didn't have a job.
- 13:25Speaker 3: I know it's stupid.
- 13:26Speaker 1: I know. It's interesting.
- 13:28Speaker 3: So I got a job. Now, here's the thing, Joe.
- 13:32My office was right on the road across the street
- 13:36from the golf course I was a member of, and
- 13:38I was watching my buddies come up the fairway, and
- 13:42I'd stand at the window, and I'd look at them,
- 13:45and I'd go, I should be playing golf with those
- 13:49guys right now. Yeah.
- 13:53Speaker 1: How long did you last?
- 13:53Speaker 3: Two months.
- 13:56Speaker 1: I couldn't stand it. I'll tell you, man, I couldn't
- 13:59stand it. Most people can't.
- 14:01Speaker 3: But I can't explain it other than I just felt
- 14:06guilty that, you know, people say, well, athletes, they got,
- 14:11you know.
- 14:11Speaker 1: It's true.
- 14:12Speaker 3: They got all this money and they got this and
- 14:14they got that.
- 14:14Speaker 1: You smoke cigars, Terry?
- 14:16Speaker 3: I do.
- 14:16Speaker 1: You want one? Yeah, I do. All right, let me
- 14:18get you one. I want a really good one.
- 14:22Speaker 3: You got them?
- 14:22Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 14:24Speaker 3: Hey, I love, hey, that's my wife. I've got the only,
- 14:29I'm probably married to the only wife who lets me
- 14:32smoke in the house. Really?
- 14:34Speaker 1: You married? Yes, I can't smoke in the house. Oh,
- 14:37see there? Everything you see in this place is because
- 14:41I can't do anything at home. All the elk heads
- 14:43and all the crazy artwork and Jimi Hendrix and all
- 14:46that jazz.
- 14:46Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 14:47Speaker 1: It's like I let her decorate the house. Yeah. You
- 14:50know what I mean? It's beautiful. It's very– my house
- 14:54would look like a 16-year-old boy won the lottery. That's
- 14:57what it would look like.
- 14:58Speaker 3: Well, I can understand that. I don't know why. Racing
- 15:00simulators and– I don't know why my wife lets me smoke.
- 15:05Speaker 1: She loves you. Yeah. Oh, you're saying yours don't. No,
- 15:10mine loves me too, but we make concessions.
- 15:12Speaker 3: Okay.
- 15:13Speaker 1: You know what I mean? But I have a pool room,
- 15:16like where I play pool.
- 15:17Speaker 3: In the house?
- 15:18Speaker 1: No, it's out. Oh, outside. Out in the barn. And
- 15:21I go out there and I smoke. I have a cigar.
- 15:25This one, sir. Oh, bless you. Yeah, this is good.
- 15:29Speaker 3: You smoke Cuban cigars?
- 15:30Speaker 1: I do when I can get them. But you know
- 15:32what I mean? There's a lot of them that aren't
- 15:34even really Cuban. They're lying to you. There you go, sir.

- 16:53Speaker 3: Joe.
- 16:54Speaker 1: Extraordinary big elk in New Mexico.
- 16:56Speaker 3: Yeah. Shot him with a bow. He's a bow hunter
- 16:58like you. And so he brings it home. Now, he's
- 17:01got his fireplace, all right? He's got two over here.
- 17:06Speaker 1: Two over here.
- 17:09Speaker 3: Well, you got to balance it up, right?
- 17:11Speaker 5: Right.
- 17:11Speaker 3: One right in the middle. So he gets his horn.
- 17:15Speaker 1: You got the European mount? Yes.
- 17:17Speaker 3: That's what he does. So he gets his stepladder. He
- 17:20got his horn.
- 17:22Speaker 1: He's got the screw in the wall or whatever you
- 17:24do to hold it.
- 17:25Speaker 3: And he's putting it up. And he's looking at it.
- 17:29And he's like, oh, this is good. This is good.
- 17:35He takes a ladder, and he moves it out. He
- 17:36gets in his chair, and he's admiring his trophy.
- 17:40Speaker 1: And it falls down. No, no, no, no, no. The
- 17:43wife walked in.
- 17:44Speaker 3: Oh, no.
- 17:45Speaker 1: And she says, what are you doing? He goes, look, babe,
- 17:48seven by seven. Look, two, two, one in the middle.
- 17:52Perfectly balanced wall. I want that out of here. What?
- 17:56Speaker 3: I want that out of here. Get that out of here.
- 17:58That's not going up there.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Get it out of here.
- 18:02Speaker 3: He had to take it down. You know where it
- 18:04is now?
- 18:04Speaker 1: Where is it now? Garage.
- 18:06Speaker 3: I know.
- 18:07Speaker 1: That kills him. That's not good. I said, give it
- 18:10to me. I'll hang it in my living room.
- 18:12Speaker 3: My wife doesn't care.
- 18:13Speaker 1: That's not good.

- 20:11Speaker 3: I know Idaho.
- 20:12Speaker 1: Wyoming has big elk. Utah has huge elk.
- 20:14Speaker 3: I'm not an elk hunter, but I know all this
- 20:16because the one time I went elk hunting, I gave
- 20:19my trainer, my horse trainer, my tag.
- 20:22Speaker 1: Oh, really? And I just followed him. Oh, wow. Yeah,
- 20:25it was cool. And he shot this huge six by six. Oh,
- 20:28that's cool. So you gave him the tag and just
- 20:29went along with it?
- 20:30Speaker 3: Yeah, I just went along, stayed behind when they had,
- 20:33we got down, you know, crawling around. It was, hey,
- 20:37it's an impressive animal.
- 20:39Speaker 1: You've never done it? I don't hunt. You don't hunt
- 20:41at all, just fish?
- 20:42Speaker 3: I can't hunt. I don't like to shoot stuff.
- 20:45Speaker 1: I get it. Yeah. I get it.
- 20:46Speaker 3: I'll kill a snake in a heartbeat. Okay. Or I
- 20:50even have a hard time killing a mouse. Yeah.
- 20:53Speaker 1: Really?
- 20:53Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what it is.
- 20:55Speaker 1: Snakes scare me. Centipede?
- 20:57Speaker 3: I'll crush a centipede for all he's worth. Then put
- 21:00him in a grinder in the kitchen. Grind that sucker up.
- 21:04He might still be alive. You ever been to Hawaii
- 21:07and got a hold of some centipedes? Joe, Joe, Joe,
- 21:11hear me loud and clear.
- 21:14Speaker 1: They're dangerous. Yeah, some of them are, yeah. Oh! Yeah. Oh,
- 21:17they're gross. Yeah.
- 21:18Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 21:19Speaker 1: So.
- 21:20Speaker 3: No, I'm not a hunter. My brother's a hunter. My
- 21:22dad was a hunter. All my uncles are hunters. I
- 21:25don't know why I never did hunt.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Hey, nothing wrong with that. You don't have to do it.
- 21:29It's not necessary. You could always go to the grocery store.
- 21:32I do that. Yeah, but if you wanted to get
- 21:34it yourself. I enjoy. It's like fishing. I'll go fishing
- 21:40with you. I don't have to fish.
- 21:42Speaker 3: I love to fish. I don't have to fish as
- 21:44long as you're catching fish and having a good time.
- 21:46That's as much fun for me.
- 21:47Speaker 1: Oh, mercy.
- 21:48Speaker 3: Whoa.
- 21:50Speaker 1: A big island man caught a foot-long centipede. That dude
- 21:54caught that on the big island of Hawaii?
- 21:56Speaker 3: Hey, check that out.
- 21:57Speaker 1: Hey, bud, look here.
- 21:59Speaker 3: Right here.
- 22:00Speaker 1: That's crazy. I didn't know they got that big. Is
- 22:04that an invasive one or is that– that can't be
- 22:06native to Hawaii, is it? Hawaii giant centipedes.
- 22:11Speaker 3: Whoa.
- 22:12Speaker 1: Is there a secret to this? Yeah, you flip the
- 22:15top the other way. There you go. That's it? Pull
- 22:20that button down? Oh, this? Yep, there you go. Sorry
- 22:23about that. No worries. That one, for some reason, that
- 22:26lighter confuses the shit out of people.
- 22:29Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a pretty good lighter, too. Yeah. Yeah, that
- 22:32was gross, huh?
- 22:33Speaker 4: Ugh.
- 22:34Speaker 1: Yeah, so you have no problem killing sunbees. You just
- 22:36don't want to kill an animal. I get it. Yeah. Yeah,
- 22:39I don't. But the thing is, if you don't kill them,
- 22:41they get killed by something. It's usually either winter or
- 22:43mountain lions. We raised 27 mallard ducks, my wife and I.
- 22:47You raised them? Raised them. Raised them.
- 22:50Speaker 3: And so I told her this morning flying down here
- 22:52to Austin. So I told her, I said, we've got
- 22:54five ducks left. What happened to them?
- 22:59Speaker 1: Stupid ducks.
- 22:59Speaker 3: Now, we live way out in the country. What they're
- 23:02doing is coming out of the lake. Walking through the field,
- 23:05crossing over the road.
- 23:07Speaker 1: Oh, they get crushed.
- 23:07Speaker 3: And they're getting hit.
- 23:08Speaker 1: On the road.
- 23:09Speaker 3: Oh. Why? Why, I have no idea. But we have
- 23:14five left out of 27.
- 23:15Speaker 1: Are you raising them for eggs? No, we're just raising
- 23:18them for fun. For fun?
- 23:19Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 23:19Speaker 1: Just to have ducks hanging around? Yeah, with ducks. That's cool.
- 23:21Speaker 3: We have ducks, chickens, guineas.
- 23:23Speaker 1: Duck eggs are interesting. You ever have them?
- 23:25Speaker 3: I'm not eating a duck egg.
- 23:26Speaker 1: I don't know why.
- 23:27Speaker 3: They're darker yolk. I know that. You ever had a
- 23:29guinea egg?
- 23:30Speaker 1: Guinea... What is it? Guinea hen.
- 23:33Speaker 3: Guinea hen, yeah.
- 23:34Speaker 1: No, I don't think so.
- 23:35Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 23:36Speaker 1: It's good for you, but— The duck eggs are weird. They, like,
- 23:40coat your mouth. You know what I mean? Like, when
- 23:44you eat them, it just tastes different, but apparently it's
- 23:46massively high in protein.
- 23:48Speaker 3: Yeah, we were talking about eating buffalo and elk, you know,
- 23:52coming in today. And I said, well, I've had buffalo,
- 23:56and that elk that my trainer killed— I can have
- 24:01all of it I want, and I got one little steak.
- 24:05My wife won't let me cook it.
- 24:07Speaker 1: She won't let you cook it?
- 24:08Speaker 3: So I have it. So it's still sitting there. There's
- 24:12no wild game in the house.
- 24:14Speaker 1: See?
- 24:15Speaker 3: I know.
- 24:16Speaker 1: But it's just meat.
- 24:17Speaker 3: I know. You met her earlier, didn't you?
- 24:19Speaker 1: Yeah, she seems like a lovely lady. She is a
- 24:21lovely lady.
- 24:22Speaker 3: I don't understand why she has a problem.
- 24:24Speaker 1: With wild game.
- 24:24Speaker 5: When we leave here today, go and say, hey, Tammy,
- 24:27how about we go over to the house and have
- 24:29a nice little, A little elk steak and, you know,
- 24:33that ain't going to happen.
- 24:35Speaker 1: Some people have a bad misconception about wild game. You know,
- 24:39they think that it smells bad or tastes bad.
- 24:41Speaker 3: I think it's taste.
- 24:42Speaker 1: I don't like deer. Really?
- 24:44Speaker 3: I don't like deer.
- 24:45Speaker 1: I like buffalo. I think it's how it's prepared. I
- 24:48guarantee you if you had deer from someone who prepares
- 24:51it well. Do you eat duck?
- 24:52Speaker 3: You eat duck?
- 24:53Speaker 1: Yes, I do.
- 24:55Speaker 3: We tried to cook some duck.
- 24:57Speaker 1: Yeah. It was horrible. See, this is what we're talking about. No,
- 25:00I think it's just how you're preparing it, really. I
- 25:04don't know. I do know this. Mr. Chow's got some
- 25:08of the best duck I've ever had. Right.
- 25:10Speaker 3: Mr. Chow's in Los Angeles, Beverly Hills. Yeah.
- 25:13Speaker 1: That's where I eat duck. Fantastic duck. Yes.
- 25:16Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 25:16Speaker 1: Now, that's good duck. I think they probably do a
- 25:18better job of preparing it. That's all it is.
- 25:21Speaker 3: We tried to do the roux, the roux that you
- 25:23cook duck in.
- 25:25Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 25:26Speaker 3: It ended up looking like tar.
- 25:28Speaker 1: Right. Do you guys, but do you know how to cook? Well,
- 25:31we thought we did.
- 25:35Speaker 3: We found that. Is your wife a good cook? Is
- 25:37your wife?
- 25:38Speaker 1: Yes, she is. She is. Anthony Bourdain went on this
- 25:41duck hunt with these guys and cooked the duck for
- 25:43them because they were complaining that duck doesn't taste good.
- 25:46And he got mad at them. He's like, listen, listen, listen.
- 25:48Don't say that. It's not that duck doesn't taste good.
- 25:51It's just you don't know what you're doing. And on
- 25:53the show, he prepares it for them. Got it. And
- 25:55they're like, this is fantastic. Yeah. That's how you're supposed
- 25:57to prepare duck. It tastes really good if you do
- 26:00a good job.
- 26:00Speaker 3: Mr.
- 26:01Speaker 1: Charles got it down. Yeah, they do. They're chefs. Professionals.
- 26:05Speaker 3: But my wife and I, we got it out of
- 26:07the computer.
- 26:09Speaker 1: Oh, okay. You got a recipe. Yeah.
- 26:10Speaker 3: Yeah. So we got– a friend of mine sent us
- 26:14five mallards.
- 26:15Speaker 1: Right.
- 26:15Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 26:16Speaker 3: I think we got two of them out because we
- 26:17didn't know what we were doing. Do they cook down
- 26:19and you don't have a half a bird or what?
- 26:21I don't know. So you got to make a roux, right?
- 26:25Speaker 1: You know, the sauce. Right, the sauce.
- 26:28Speaker 3: So we got the big pot out and we're putting
- 26:31this in, that in, this in, that in. Now you
- 26:35heat it, get it this and that. Then you stir,
- 26:37add this and that. And we stir and we stir.
- 26:39And the more we stir, I end up looking like
- 26:41a rubber tire.
- 26:42Speaker 1: It was horrible. It was seriously— But, Terry, I want
- 26:50you to think about it this way. Imagine if someone
- 26:52learned how to play football from YouTube. Never played football before. Oh,
- 26:56let's figure out how to play football. We're going to
- 26:58watch a YouTube video on how to play football. And
- 27:00then they went out there and had a fucking terrible game.
- 27:02They looked like shit, right? That's the same thing. It's
- 27:05like you learn how to cook from a recipe if
- 27:09you don't know how to cook.
- 27:10Speaker 3: I've got a book out called The Bradshaw Family Cookbook.
- 27:14Speaker 1: So you can cook.
- 27:15Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't cook stuff like that.
- 27:19Speaker 1: I make a roux. Now, my son-in-law, you met Noah?
- 27:23Speaker 3: Yes.
- 27:24Speaker 1: He's a world-renowned, not a world-renowned, but he's voted the
- 27:28number one chef in Dallas. Oh, wow.
- 27:30Speaker 3: Yeah. He's from Hawaii.
- 27:32Speaker 1: What restaurants does he cook at in Dallas? Ham's. They
- 27:36hire him. Oh, okay.
- 27:38Speaker 3: Does that make sense?
- 27:39Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, sure.
- 27:39Speaker 3: They hire him. He goes out and cooks for companies
- 27:43and people. Okay. It's amazing. As a matter of fact,
- 27:46I called him yesterday after church, and I said, I
- 27:49always mess up pork, pork chops. I love pork chops,
- 27:53but I screw them up. And he said, what's your
- 27:55gut temperature at? I said 350. He said 20 minutes,
- 27:58take them off. That's all I needed to know.
- 28:01Speaker 1: Perfect. It's beautiful.
- 28:04Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:05Speaker 1: Yeah, you just got to learn how to do it.
- 28:06Speaker 3: That's all it is.
- 28:07Speaker 1: But it's not that the duck tastes bad.
- 28:09Speaker 3: Here's the bad thing about it. I know my banker
- 28:11who's the one I got the ducks from. His name
- 28:13is Drake Mills.
- 28:15Speaker 1: His name is Drake.
- 28:16Speaker 3: Drake. Drake Ducks.
- 28:17Speaker 1: And he has ducks. Ducks. He's a duck hunter. But
- 28:20his name is Drake. Drake. Yeah.
- 28:22Speaker 3: That's kind of crazy. I know, but he's serious.
- 28:25Speaker 1: How ironic.
- 28:26Speaker 3: Serious duck hunter. Serious. He plants 500 acres of rice
- 28:29to shoot ducks.
- 28:31Speaker 1: Oh, he's serious.
- 28:32Speaker 3: Okay. Then he's on the phone with me bitching. It's
- 28:3580 degrees.
- 28:38Speaker 1: Ducks don't, I mean, they aren't coming in at 80 degrees.
- 28:40Speaker 3: Right. His rice, and he's got water issues.
- 28:43Speaker 1: Does he know how to cook duck?
- 28:46Speaker 3: I guess. He's never asked me what I want to eat.
- 28:48He's a duck, but I asked for some duck. He
- 28:53told me one day he had plenty of duck. And
- 28:56I said, well, Tammy, we don't shoot stuff, but I
- 28:58like duck.
- 28:59Speaker 1: So he sent us five duck, ducks, you know.
- 29:05Speaker 3: So that's what you cooked.
- 29:06Speaker 1: That's what I cooked. Cooked his ducks. Did you ask
- 29:09him how he cooks it?
- 29:10Speaker 3: No, I don't think so, no.
- 29:12Speaker 1: Probably should have.
- 29:12Speaker 4: No.
- 29:13Speaker 1: Probably a good idea. Well, I mean, the book. Right.
- 29:17The book.
- 29:17Speaker 3: Come on, Joe.
- 29:18Speaker 1: Yeah, books are okay. The book says a quarter of something. Really,
- 29:21the right way to do it is to learn from
- 29:22someone who is a really good show.
- 29:24Speaker 3: I got to take a break here. This is pretty
- 29:25dang good.
- 29:26Speaker 1: It's pretty good. Have you had any more? I have.
- 29:28Speaker 3: Cheers. We need to bump again.
- 29:29Speaker 1: Let's go.
- 29:30Speaker 3: I'm telling you, when this is over with, you'll be
- 29:33sitting over there and I'll be sitting over there.
- 29:34Speaker 1: Let's try it. It's got quite a kick, I'll tell
- 29:38you that. There's a lot in there. You can tell.
- 29:40it's 135 proof. Oh, it's good. I think duck cooking,
- 29:44like I've heard people say that wild game tastes bad.
- 29:48It's the best tasting meat in the world. It's just
- 29:50how do you cook it. You eat turkey, wild turkey? Yes,
- 29:53I've had wild turkey.
- 29:54Speaker 3: Dang.
- 29:55Speaker 1: Oh, you're crazy. No. It was delicious.
- 29:57Speaker 3: I mean, the only way wild.
- 29:58Speaker 1: Turkey, you eat squirrel. I've had squirrel. Yeah.
- 30:01Speaker 3: Now, see, I grew up on squirrel. Now, you tell
- 30:03my wife that or you tell any of my kids that.
- 30:05Speaker 1: Oh, God. This is a lot like chicken, right? It's
- 30:08a lot like chicken. Is that a joke? Wouldn't you agree?
- 30:10Speaker 3: You're a stand-up comedian.
- 30:11Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 30:11Speaker 1: Is that funny? No, it's kind of chicken-like. It's almost like.
- 30:15Speaker 3: A— Squirrels taste like chicken?
- 30:16Speaker 1: Well, it's not like a red meat. Do you eat
- 30:19the brain? I have not eaten squirrel brain.
- 30:21Speaker 3: Yeah. None the brain.
- 30:22Speaker 1: I've had lamb's brain before. Yeah, my Uncle Vinny used
- 30:27to cook it. He used to slice up. They used
- 30:29to sell it in the grocery store in New Jersey.
- 30:31They'd slice up a lamb's skull with the brain inside,
- 30:34like sliced in half, and they'd put two halves on
- 30:36the grill, and they would cook lamb's brains on the grill. Hey,
- 30:40I was like 10. I don't know.
- 30:43Speaker 3: That wasn't my idea. My brother and I used to
- 30:45fight over the squirrel head.
- 30:47Speaker 1: The squirrel head you used to fight over? I don't
- 30:48want to gross out our viewers out there. Too late.
- 30:54Speaker 3: You take them and you hit them with a spoon
- 30:57and rip it. Crack it open. Delicious. Now, would I
- 31:01eat one today? No.
- 31:03Speaker 1: How old were you when you were doing this? I
- 31:06know at least 15, up to 15.
- 31:08Speaker 3: Yeah. I didn't think anything of it.
- 31:11Speaker 1: Brains are sketchy. Eating brains can get you in trouble.
- 31:16Speaker 3: Can I honestly say this? Is this the first interview
- 31:18ever done where eating brains has been brought up?
- 31:21Speaker 1: Probably not.
- 31:22Speaker 3: Oh, not?
- 31:22Speaker 1: Have we talked about eating brains before?
- 31:24Speaker 3: We have, yeah.
- 31:25Speaker 1: We have? Yeah, definitely.
- 31:27Speaker 3: Well, I'm not special. I thought I'd be special today,
- 31:30but evidently not.
- 31:32Speaker 1: I think we talked about it in terms of what
- 31:34mad cow disease is. Mad cow disease comes from them
- 31:37feeding cows cows. It's basically the same disease that cannibals get. Yeah.
- 31:43Speaker 3: I'm not familiar with that. I know about mad cow disease.
- 31:46They got another one going on right now in South Texas.
- 31:50Some kind of disease.
- 31:51Speaker 1: Oh, the screw worm. Yeah, Bruce told me about that.
- 31:54Which New world screw worm. Me, you, horses, dogs. Yeah,
- 32:01it's apparently a huge problem. They had it in America,
- 32:05I think in the 80s, and they pushed it back.
- 32:08They got rid of it. So hopefully they can get
- 32:10rid of it again. But it's apparently a really dangerous parasite.
- 32:13Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a parasite. I mean, I got in trouble
- 32:18one time for saying people were having during the COVID thing,
- 32:23they were taking... Ivermectin. You may have taken Ivermectin. And
- 32:27I gave– I didn't know any better. I thought I knew,
- 32:31but I didn't know. But Ivermectin, I used to give
- 32:35it to the cattle. Right.
- 32:38Speaker 1: That's what– Yeah.
- 32:39Speaker 3: And I had a– now, speaking of brains, this is true.
- 32:42We were in Hawaii. I run into a brain surgeon.
- 32:46And he says, are you okay with the COVID thing?
- 32:49And I said, I had it. Got over it. You know,
- 32:54I'm all right now. And he says, well, he says, boy,
- 32:57he said, I'll take ivermectin, man. I said, brain surgeon.
- 33:01And I said to him, obviously, I said, really? It's
- 33:06a cattle dewormer. Ivermectin kills parasites. So I just left
- 33:13it at that. And I walked out of there going,
- 33:14brain surgeon? I never could rationalize that kind of thinking, but,
- 33:20you know.
- 33:20Speaker 1: Well, you know, ivermectin won the Nobel Prize for human beings,
- 33:23for use in human beings.
- 33:25Speaker 3: No, I didn't know that.
- 33:25Speaker 1: Yeah, it's good for yellow fever, dengue fever. It's an
- 33:30antiparasitic that also has antiviral properties.
- 33:34Speaker 3: I didn't know that. Obviously, I wasn't as well informed
- 33:37as you are.
- 33:37Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I got in trouble for it.
- 33:40Speaker 3: So did I.
- 33:41Speaker 1: Well, I got in trouble, like, publicly, like on CNN.
- 33:44The White House talked about it during— I got over–
- 33:48you don't know the story. And for the people that
- 33:50know the story, I'm sorry. I have to repeat it.
- 33:52But during the pandemic, I got COVID and we had–
- 33:56me and Dave Chappelle were doing a show in Nashville
- 33:58and I had to cancel it because I had COVID.
- 34:01And so I made a video saying that I feel better,
- 34:06but we have to cancel the shows. I had COVID.
- 34:08I was sick for a couple of days, but now
- 34:10I'm fine. And I explained all the stuff that I took.
- 34:13I took a bunch of stuff, monoclonal antibodies. And one
- 34:15of the things that I took was ivermectin. So it
- 34:18became this huge thing on CNN because they wanted everybody
- 34:20to get vaccinated. So they had all these different people
- 34:24saying that I was taking horse dewormer. Well, it's human
- 34:27medication prescribed to me by my doctor who also took ivermectin,
- 34:32also got COVID, also got better. And he didn't take
- 34:34all the stuff that I took. I took a bunch
- 34:36of stuff, but they changed the color of my skin.
- 34:39They made my skin look green on CNN. No bullshit.
- 34:43Speaker 3: Oh.
- 34:43Speaker 1: No bullshit. They AI'd you. They literally put a filter
- 34:47on my face to make me look green.
- 34:49Speaker 3: They would put a cow's head over me. I honestly
- 34:54did not know that a human.
- 34:58Speaker 1: Takes ivermectin. But I will say this. It was actually
- 35:00invented for humans.
- 35:01Speaker 3: I actually didn't know that, and I'm thankful that I
- 35:04didn't argue with anybody. He wasn't the only one that
- 35:07told me that.
- 35:08Speaker 1: Well, the problem was that was a narrative that was
- 35:10all over the news, is that it was horse dewormer.
- 35:12And if you're a person who works with animals, with horses,
- 35:15with cows. I only knew it was cattle. It is
- 35:17a dewormer, but that's like saying penicillin is a veterinary medicine. No, well,
- 35:21they use penicillin on animals. They also use penicillin on humans.
- 35:26It's like it's medicine. We're mammals. We have similar medicines.
- 35:29That's what ivermectin is. It's it stops viral replication. And
- 35:33that's the benefit. But was it proven to stop? Was
- 35:36it proven? There's a ton of studies. There's a lot
- 35:38of people that have written books. I'm not the guy
- 35:39to talk about it. But there's a lot of evidence
- 35:43that the reason why they were not telling people to
- 35:45take ivermectin is because they wanted everybody to get vaccinated.
- 35:47And I got one over here. Thank you. But the
- 35:49reason why they wanted to get everyone to get vaccinated
- 35:51is not because it was effective. It's because they wanted
- 35:53to make a lot of money. And that's what they did.
- 35:56Speaker 3: Well, when you're talking about drugs, you're talking about a
- 35:58lot of money.
- 35:59Speaker 1: A lot of money. Yeah, a lot of money. So
- 36:03that's why it's ironic that you brought that up because
- 36:05I got caught in the crossfires of the ivermectin bullshit.
- 36:08Speaker 3: And see, I– but I– You knew more about it
- 36:13than I did because being a farmer, it's all I
- 36:16used it for.
- 36:17Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very effective as a dewormer.
- 36:20Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 36:20Speaker 1: But it also stops viral replication.
- 36:23Speaker 3: But I wasn't going to take it. I don't care
- 36:25if they just said this is– I wasn't going to
- 36:27take that.
- 36:27Speaker 1: You wouldn't take it even if it was prescribed to
- 36:29you by your doctor?
- 36:31Speaker 3: Well, that would be a different story.
- 36:32Speaker 1: Right. Well, mine was prescribed to me by my doctor.
- 36:34Speaker 3: But I'm married to a doctor, and my doctor said
- 36:37we're not taking it.
- 36:37Speaker 1: Really?
- 36:38Speaker 3: But I took– I'm one of those guys that if
- 36:41they say– I mean, When I got COVID, I was
- 36:48sitting in my dressing room at Fox.
- 36:53Speaker 1: Felt fine. Felt fine.
- 36:55Speaker 3: We got tested. Every Sunday morning, we got tested. They
- 36:59came in and said, you got to go. You got
- 37:00to leave.
- 37:02Speaker 1: What happened?
- 37:03Speaker 3: Oh, you got COVID.
- 37:06Speaker 1: Did you get sick? No.
- 37:09Speaker 3: Oh.
- 37:09Speaker 1: Now, here's the thing. Okay. Here's the thing. The question...
- 37:14that came to.
- 37:15Speaker 3: Mind later was, okay, the guy that drove me over here,
- 37:19the guy that's going to take me to the airport,
- 37:21how am I getting home?
- 37:22Speaker 1: Right.
- 37:23Speaker 3: Do I stay here in the hotel for 10, 12 days?
- 37:26That was my dilemma. What do I do? But I
- 37:29did get sick.
- 37:30Speaker 1: You did eventually?
- 37:31Speaker 3: I did, yeah.
- 37:32Speaker 1: You got real sick?
- 37:33Speaker 3: It took me about four days and I got real sick. Yeah.
- 37:35Speaker 1: Did you do anything during those four days? Were you
- 37:38taking vitamins? Nothing?
- 37:39Speaker 3: No.
- 37:39Speaker 1: Why not?
- 37:40Speaker 3: I don't take vitamins.
- 37:41Speaker 1: What?
- 37:42Speaker 4: Really?
- 37:43Speaker 3: No.
- 37:43Speaker 1: How come? You're married to a doctor?
- 37:46Speaker 3: I never have taken vitamins.
- 37:48Speaker 1: I don't know why. Really? No. Even when you're playing?
- 37:50Speaker 3: No.
- 37:50Speaker 1: I take a B12 shot.
- 37:51Speaker 3: Okay.
- 37:51Speaker 1: Well, that's a vitamin.
- 37:52Speaker 3: But I give it to myself.
- 37:54Speaker 1: You give it to yourself?
- 37:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 37:55Speaker 1: Intramuscular?
- 37:56Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 37:57Speaker 1: Okay. A little tube. We take it after practice.
- 37:59Speaker 3: Had them in a big bag. We take them.
- 38:01Speaker 1: Okay. That's good for energy. Yeah.
- 38:03Speaker 3: Tired.
- 38:03Speaker 1: Hot. Tired. But no. Sure. A lot of other vitamins, too, though.
- 38:07Speaker 3: I don't have a problem with MRI machines, PET scans.
- 38:11Speaker 1: Surgery.
- 38:11Speaker 3: Now, I got a bad hip right now. I'm telling you, Joe,
- 38:14it's killing me. Yeah. And I got it injected.
- 38:18Speaker 1: With stem cells?
- 38:20Speaker 3: No, no, I don't do stem cells.
- 38:22Speaker 1: Why not?
- 38:22Speaker 3: I don't believe in stem cells.
- 38:24Speaker 1: You don't believe in them?
- 38:25Speaker 3: No.
- 38:25Speaker 1: But you believe in that little baby Jesus?
- 38:27Speaker 3: Absolutely.
- 38:28Speaker 1: This I do believe in. Go ahead and laugh.
- 38:32Speaker 3: Joe, you don't want to laugh when I got baby
- 38:34Jesus pointing at you. You better cut that laugh.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Listen, bro. You better shut that down. If you and
- 38:38I go fishing, I'm going to beg you to point
- 38:40that baby Jesus my way.
- 38:41Speaker 3: No, no, no. I'm going to give you one.
- 38:42Speaker 1: I got hundreds of these. If we go fishing, I
- 38:45really want to point my way. I believe that little
- 38:48baby Jesus works. But my question is, how come you
- 38:51don't believe in stem cells?
- 38:55Speaker 3: I had too many people. Based just on people that
- 38:59went and did stem cells. Uh-huh. And what happened? They
- 39:03went back and did it again.
- 39:05Speaker 1: Okay.
- 39:05Speaker 3: Did it again.
- 39:06Speaker 1: Right.
- 39:07Speaker 3: Then what happened?
- 39:08Speaker 1: What happened?
- 39:09Speaker 3: They went back and did it again.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Okay.
- 39:10Speaker 3: Then what happened?
- 39:11Speaker 1: What happened?
- 39:12Speaker 3: They went back and did it again.
- 39:13Speaker 1: Got it.
- 39:14Speaker 3: Okay. Right.
- 39:14Speaker 1: Why'd they keep going back?
- 39:15Speaker 3: Because it didn't work.
- 39:17Speaker 1: Okay. Didn't work at all?
- 39:18Speaker 3: Same symptoms came.
- 39:19Speaker 1: No, no, no.
- 39:20Speaker 3: It worked for a little bit.
- 39:21Speaker 1: Right. Well, what are these people dealing with? What's wrong
- 39:23with them? They're going back and back and back. Mostly-
- 39:28Knees and ankles. Okay. So you're probably talking about arthritis.
- 39:32Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 39:32Speaker 1: You're probably talking about degenerative knee conditions, ankle conditions. So
- 39:38the amount of damage that you're trying to repair with
- 39:41stem cells, you're going to get a little bit of
- 39:43benefit in something like that if it's that far gone.
- 39:45But stem cells work.
- 39:46Speaker 3: I don't, you know, good. I'm glad. I'm glad they work.
- 39:50You do stem cells?
- 39:51Speaker 1: A hundred percent.
- 39:53Speaker 3: What hurts?
- 39:54Speaker 1: I had a rotator cuff tear that completely went away.
- 39:56Speaker 3: Now that's at least a year.
- 39:58Speaker 1: That's what you say. At least a year. I had
- 40:00a full length rotator cuff tear. I got stem cells
- 40:03shot into it. A full tear. Full tear. My doctor
- 40:06told me I 100% was going to need surgery. I
- 40:09went to an orthopedic surgeon that the UFC recommended. So
- 40:13they sent me to their guys.
- 40:13Speaker 3: If I finish this, Joe, excuse me.
- 40:15Speaker 1: Please go.
- 40:15Speaker 3: But if I finish this, I'm probably going to believe you.
- 40:18Speaker 1: You don't have to believe me or not believe me.
- 40:20I'm telling the truth. So I went to this doctor.
- 40:22He said, you have a full length rotator cuff tear.
- 40:25You're going to need surgery. He goes, you could rehab
- 40:26it if you want. You could try. Maybe make it
- 40:28a little bit better. But ultimately, you're just putting off
- 40:31the surgery. So I get this stem cell treatment in Vegas. Dr.
- 40:34Roddy McGee hooks me up with the stem cell treatment.
- 40:37And then six months later, he gives me an MRI
- 40:40and he says- The rotator cuff tear is completely gone.
- 40:43He goes, I've never seen anything like this in my life.
- 40:45He goes, it's gone. Literally, the tear doesn't exist anymore.
- 40:49You had baby Jesus in your pocket. No, I had science.
- 40:53Speaker 3: All right.
- 40:54Speaker 1: Hey. It works. You'd be silly to ignore breakthrough science
- 40:59like this because there's a reason why so many people
- 41:02are doing it. And the reason why so many people
- 41:03are doing it is, look, it's not a miracle. It's
- 41:05not going to fix things that are unfixable. Like bone-on-bone arthritis.
- 41:09It's not going to fix that. That's what I'm dealing with.
- 41:11But it might reduce some of the inflammation and give
- 41:12you at least temporary relief, which is why these people
- 41:15keep going back again and again and again.
- 41:17Speaker 3: When I got cancer, I had to do certain treatments.
- 41:22And I have rheumatoid arthritis. Now, if I were still
- 41:25on my rheumatoid arthritis medicine, which I haven't been for
- 41:29three years now, I probably wouldn't be having the pain
- 41:33that I'm having. But you can't take the rheumatoid arthritis
- 41:37after you have radiation. And so do you want to
- 41:43risk that?
- 41:43Speaker 1: Right, right.
- 41:44Speaker 3: Plus I kept getting all these cancer things.
- 41:49Speaker 1: So you had two types of cancer, right? You had
- 41:51skin cancer.
- 41:51Speaker 3: I had bladder and Merkel cell, which is 2% of
- 41:54America has Merkel cell. Both of them, the bladder cancer was,
- 42:00I went to a doctor in Dallas. He checked me
- 42:06and he says, well, you got a little blood in
- 42:08your urine, but that's fine. That's normal or something like that.
- 42:12And I kept complaining. Finally, I told my wife, I said, boy,
- 42:16Something's not right. So she researched and found the best
- 42:19doctor was at Yale University, Yale. So I went up
- 42:23to New Haven, Connecticut for testing. Went in, exploratory biopsy,
- 42:28came out and said, you got bladder cancer.
- 42:32Speaker 1: Wow.
- 42:33Speaker 3: That's a funny story about that. Funny story. Now, there's
- 42:36nothing funny about cancer. But the last time I got divorced,
- 42:41you ever been divorced?
- 42:42Speaker 1: No. Okay, good.
- 42:43Speaker 3: Good for you.
- 42:44Speaker 1: So the last time I got divorced....
- 42:47Speaker 3: My wife calls me and she says, I need for
- 42:50you to sit down. I don't love you anymore. I
- 42:53want a divorce.
- 42:56Speaker 1: Oh. All right.
- 42:57Speaker 3: End of that story.
- 42:59Speaker 1: Right.
- 42:59Speaker 3: So my wife, the wife's sitting outside. After she gets
- 43:03the reports, I didn't know she got the report. She says, honey,
- 43:07I need for you to sit down. I ain't sitting down.
- 43:12Speaker 1: I don't want another divorce. That's the first thing. It
- 43:17flashed into my head. The last time I heard a
- 43:19woman tell me, sit down.
- 43:21Speaker 3: I need for you to sit down. My ass was
- 43:23out of there at 5 o'clock that afternoon.
- 43:25Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Boy. Hey.
- 43:28Speaker 3: That's a lot.
- 43:29Speaker 1: Yeah. I wouldn't sit down. Bad day.
- 43:32Speaker 3: She said, you got bladder cancer.
- 43:33Speaker 1: And I said, all right. All right. At least we're
- 43:35not getting divorced.
- 43:36Speaker 3: I can deal with bladder cancer.
- 43:37Speaker 1: I can't deal with another divorce. You want to hear
- 43:40a crazy story about stem cells and bladder?
- 43:43Speaker 3: Let me ask you something.
- 43:44Speaker 1: Can I stop you? Let me tell you something about
- 43:46stem cells. They made a bladder for this woman out
- 43:49of stem cells. She had some sort of a bladder issue.
- 43:53I don't remember if it was cancer or what it was,
- 43:54but she had to have her bladder removed. They made
- 43:56a completely new bladder for her out of stem cells
- 44:00with her own skin tissue, put it back in her body,
- 44:04and now that's her bladder. So stem cells work.
- 44:08Speaker 3: Did that make the news? Yeah.
- 44:09Speaker 1: Oh, sure. There's articles written about it. Yeah, they're on
- 44:11the show. Peer-reviewed papers on it. She's been here? No,
- 44:13she has not been here, nor has the doctor that
- 44:15did it. But I'm aware of the story.
- 44:17Speaker 3: It's like putting it in a bowl and you grow
- 44:19it in a bowl.
- 44:20Speaker 1: I don't know how they did it because I'm a moron,
- 44:22but someone very smart.
- 44:23Speaker 3: I'm totally a moron when it comes to stuff like that.
- 44:25Speaker 1: Someone very smart figured out how to make a bladder
- 44:28for this woman.
- 44:28Speaker 3: But if it works for you and you believe it,
- 44:29who am I to call?
- 44:30Speaker 1: What do you mean believe it? She's got a bladder now.
- 44:33Speaker 3: No, if you believe, fine. But I mean— Fine.
- 44:37Speaker 1: That's good. Listen, if you ever get injured, holler at me.
- 44:40I'll bring it away as to, well, get you some
- 44:42stem cells, and then we'll have another conversation afterwards. You're like, wow,
- 44:45it fixed it. We're not arguing here. No, we're not arguing.
- 44:48What I'm saying– But I just– There's real reasons why
- 44:53these people travel to Tijuana and go to these different places.
- 44:57Speaker 3: And they die in Tijuana.
- 44:58Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 45:00Speaker 3: What was the great actor that went to Mexico to
- 45:03have all the stem cells done?
- 45:05Speaker 1: Who did that?
- 45:06Speaker 3: He was the ghost. What was his name?
- 45:11Speaker 1: The actor. He went to Mexico and died?
- 45:15Speaker 3: Two actors went down there for stem cells. When stem
- 45:18cells first came out, you know, they wouldn't do it.
- 45:20Remember when they wouldn't do it in America?
- 45:22Speaker 1: Yes.
- 45:22Speaker 3: So they were going to Germany and they were going
- 45:25to Mexico.
- 45:26Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 45:26Speaker 1: Germany was a lot for Regenequin. Yeah. They were going
- 45:29for different procedures.
- 45:29Speaker 3: Because I know Fred Couples was going to Germany.
- 45:32Speaker 1: Well, I mean, Kobe Bryant went to Germany. Peyton Manning
- 45:35went to Germany. They went to Germany for Regenequin, which
- 45:39is like a very— that' s not stem cells as much. That's
- 45:42something— What is it? It's a very advanced form of
- 45:45platelet-rich plasma, like PRP. It's like PRP, but it's way
- 45:49more effective. I had that done, too. That cured a
- 45:52bulging disc for me.
- 45:53Speaker 3: Now, one of the things they're doing now, and I
- 45:55don't know what it is. I don't know how we
- 45:57got on this, by the way, but— Stem cells. Yeah.
- 46:00But— Cancer is now— what' s it called? Where you go in,
- 46:06they spin your blood, and they then put it back
- 46:08in you. What is that called?
- 46:11Speaker 1: Do you know what it is?
- 46:12Speaker 3: PRP?
- 46:13Speaker 1: Is that what it is, PRP? That's what we were
- 46:14just talking about, rich plasma? Then put it back in? Yeah. Yeah.
- 46:19Speaker 3: Interesting. Look.
- 46:20Speaker 1: Well, there's a bunch of different things. Plasma, phoresis, it's
- 46:22another thing. They take the plasma out.
- 46:25Speaker 3: I don't know why. And I'm not sitting here— I'm
- 46:29not sitting here saying, hey, Joe, you're crazy. All right.
- 46:33Speaker 1: You did it. You wouldn't be the first. No. You
- 46:35did it.
- 46:36Speaker 3: You believe in it. It happened for you. You know.
- 46:39Speaker 1: All right.
- 46:40Speaker 3: I don't mind taking a shot. I'll take a shot
- 46:42all day long. Okay. You put anything in your body
- 46:45with a needle?
- 46:46Speaker 1: Anything? Not anything. I mean, I'm pretty careful about it. Yeah.
- 46:51Speaker 3: I would hope so. Yeah.
- 46:53Speaker 1: I don't just try it out.
- 46:54Speaker 3: No.
- 46:54Speaker 1: Let's see what happens when I put this in my
- 46:56body with a needle.
- 46:56Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 46:57Speaker 1: Yeah. You know, it's.
- 46:59Speaker 3: Look, I got a sister-in-law that's totally this way and
- 47:03I'm totally that way. You're one way and I'm– that's good.
- 47:06That's what makes the world go round.
- 47:07Speaker 1: What does a sister-in-law do? What do you mean? What
- 47:09does that mean? Is she a liberal?
- 47:14Speaker 3: No, absolutely not. Very much Republican conservative.
- 47:18Speaker 1: Okay. So how is she different than you?
- 47:21Speaker 3: Well, if it works and I think it's going to work,
- 47:26I'm not afraid to try it. Right. I was, when
- 47:31I got diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and I'm laying in
- 47:35a hospital and they take me and they isolate me.
- 47:38Isolate me. Because they didn't know what was wrong with me. Test, test, test, test. Boy,
- 47:46I'm in a hurry. Then to go in and do,
- 47:51I want to say stem cells. I want to say
- 47:54it because that's the first thing that comes to mind.
- 47:56Went into my knee. And I sat in the hospital
- 48:01for two more days and felt fine. And then they
- 48:04released me and I went home. And I was home
- 48:08one day and in the middle of the night I'm
- 48:10screaming and hollering in pain. My wife, she gets up
- 48:14and thank God at that time I owned a plane
- 48:18so I could get on the plane and get back
- 48:20to Florida. And got down there and that's when they
- 48:23found out I had rheumatoid arthritis. and they had to
- 48:28bring a specialist in to find out what the hell
- 48:29was going on with me.
- 48:30Speaker 1: So is it only the knees?
- 48:32Speaker 3: Yeah, only the knee.
- 48:33Speaker 1: Okay.
- 48:34Speaker 3: Only the knee. That's where the knee... I never... There's
- 48:37no rheumatoid arthritis in my family. None.
- 48:40Speaker 1: You can't find it anywhere. But isn't rheumatoid arthritis systemic?
- 48:43When most people have it, don't they have it everywhere?
- 48:46That's what I thought. Well, yeah, but look at... But
- 48:49if you have it in your.
- 48:49Speaker 3: Yeah, but look. This finger's just turning. That thumb's just
- 48:53now turning. My hand's... Right now, because I don't take
- 48:58any medicine, the only thing that hurts in the morning
- 49:01before I take– do you take Celebrex? Do you believe
- 49:04in Celebrex?
- 49:05Speaker 1: What is Celebrex?
- 49:06Speaker 3: Anti-inflammatory.
- 49:07Speaker 1: No, I don't take that.
- 49:08Speaker 4: Okay.
- 49:08Speaker 3: I take an inflammatory in the morning.
- 49:10Speaker 1: That's all I can take.
- 49:11Speaker 3: Okay. I take an anti-inflammatory. And that takes about 80%
- 49:15of the pain away. It doesn't hurt anywhere else. Now
- 49:19my hip is starting to kill me. My ankle was
- 49:24killing me.
- 49:25Speaker 1: How many years did you play football for? 14. 14 professional.
- 49:28Speaker 3: That's high school, junior high, high school, college, professional.
- 49:33Speaker 1: And I played back in the 70s when I mean,
- 49:37come on.
- 49:38Speaker 3: Shit hit the fan back then. Right.
- 49:40Speaker 1: What were the surgeries like back then?
- 49:42Speaker 3: I mean, it was tough.
- 49:44Speaker 1: Back then, they'd shoot you up. You're going to play.
- 49:48That's how it was.
- 49:49Speaker 3: You're going to play. When I pulled my stomach muscles
- 49:53and they would shoot me up before the game, and
- 49:56then at halftime, I'd get shot up again. What were
- 49:59they shooting you up with? Stomach block.
- 50:01Speaker 1: I tore the oblique. You tore your oblique and they
- 50:05just made you keep playing?
- 50:06Speaker 3: They didn't make me, but I wanted to keep playing.
- 50:09Speaker 1: What were they shooting you up with? Cortisone or something?
- 50:11Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 50:14Speaker 1: Joe, I'm not a doctor. Come on, man. Are you
- 50:16a doctor? Hey, let me just say this.
- 50:18Speaker 3: I can play.
- 50:19Speaker 1: All right.
- 50:20Speaker 3: I didn't have a problem with it. Okay.
- 50:22Speaker 1: It worked. Scary.
- 50:23Speaker 3: You don't want your legs up in the air and
- 50:26some doctor coming in there and didn't give it, didn't
- 50:28give it a thought at all. You know, just it's,
- 50:33it's kind of the way it was. It's, It was
- 50:36the unspoken.
- 50:38Speaker 1: Bravado. Got it.
- 50:40Speaker 3: Yeah. You know that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Football players, they,
- 50:42back in the, can you imagine the 50s and the 60s?
- 50:45Speaker 1: Oh, my goodness. Jeez Louise. Well, what year did you
- 50:48start playing professionally?
- 50:49Speaker 3: 70?
- 50:49Speaker 4: 70 what?
- 50:49Speaker 3: 70? 70? 1970. Wow.
- 50:50Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 50:50Speaker 1: I'm 77.
- 50:50Speaker 2: Wow.
- 50:51Speaker 1: You're what?
- 50:51Speaker 3: 50? 58.
- 50:51Speaker 1: 58. Almost 59. Yeah. I'm 77. Yeah.
- 50:54Speaker 3: Wow. Super 78.
- 50:55Speaker 1: Wow.
- 51:02Speaker 3: So I just didn't think anything about it. I said, well,
- 51:04how did you get used to all that? I grew
- 51:06up with it. When you grow up with it. It's normal.
- 51:09Speaker 1: Normal.
- 51:10Speaker 3: Yeah. It's all part of it.
- 51:12Speaker 1: You play.
- 51:12Speaker 3: And as a quarterback, I think back then or any time,
- 51:15quarterbacks play. Coach has got to know that he can
- 51:18rely on his quarterback to be out there no matter what.
- 51:22Speaker 1: And I even had one coach say, hey, you always
- 51:25play hurt. You always play hurt. Yeah, I do. Shoot
- 51:30me up.
- 51:32Speaker 3: Block it.
- 51:33Speaker 1: Shoot me up with stuff. Yeah, let's have it. Stuff, yeah.
- 51:37Speaker 3: You don't ask what it is.
- 51:40Speaker 1: You want to hear us.
- 51:42Speaker 3: We played Cincinnati one year, and the night before the game,
- 51:46there's a lineup of players going into a room to
- 51:50be shot up. Whoa.
- 51:52Speaker 1: Yo. Yeah. It's just normal. And you don't know what
- 51:57they were shooting them up with? Well, we played, didn't we?
- 52:01I told you, stuff. And you didn't think anything of it. Nobody.
- 52:07Speaker 3: Right.
- 52:08Speaker 1: It was just normal. Normal. Normal. You got to play.
- 52:11Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 52:12Speaker 1: He's a doctor. Hey, it's part of the, you know
- 52:15what everybody is. Did they have steroids back then? Yeah,
- 52:19they did.
- 52:20Speaker 3: I just didn't know why one player was built like Atlas.
- 52:27Speaker 1: Skin tight, muscles bulging. Didn't know, you know.
- 52:32Speaker 3: Didn't know anything about it. Howie Long. You never had
- 52:34Howie on? Howie's amazing.
- 52:35Speaker 1: No, I've never had Howie on.
- 52:36Speaker 3: Howie's amazing. Now, Howie tells this story. He was a
- 52:40rookie defensive tackler. No, defensive end at this time. He
- 52:44lined up over our tight end, Larry Brown, whose arms.
- 52:46Speaker 1: Were this big around.
- 52:48Speaker 3: And he had like a 22-inch waist, massive legs, ripped,
- 52:52every muscle. You could see the muscles in it.
- 52:54Speaker 1: It's just.
- 52:55Speaker 3: most gorgeous body on a human being you've ever seen.
- 52:59And he put his arm down, you know, getting in position.
- 53:04And Howie lined up over him, and Howie tells us
- 53:06how he's the best. And Howie goes, you've got to
- 53:09be effing kidding me.
- 53:12Speaker 1: He said he'd never seen anything like that.
- 53:15Speaker 3: So I'm not saying Larry did steroids or anything like that,
- 53:19but he was something else.
- 53:20Speaker 1: But he might have. Might have.
- 53:22Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 53:23Speaker 1: It might have. Some people were.
- 53:24Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 53:24Speaker 1: What year did steroids enter into sports?
- 53:27Speaker 3: Well, I think it became an issue after the 70s, correct?
- 53:32Speaker 1: Well, it was an issue in the Olympics. And one
- 53:34of the things they were noticing was Eastern Bloc women. Hey,
- 53:39I'm going to do an interview. Okay, Nancy. They were
- 53:42very womanly. Yeah. They seem to. And then those women
- 53:47reported about it. They talked about it back in the day,
- 53:50you know, that they were forced to take steroids and
- 53:52it ruined their life. Not good for you. That's for sure. Oh,
- 53:56especially for a woman to take hyper male. For sure.
- 54:00You and I could probably sit here.
- 54:05Speaker 3: And talk about certain athletes that have had such a
- 54:07body change.
- 54:09Speaker 1: All right. Yeah, for sure.
- 54:11Speaker 3: And go.
- 54:14Speaker 1: You've got to be kidding me.
- 54:16Speaker 3: And then I think rightly or justifiably so, it was
- 54:23probably due to steroids. We wouldn't want to say that.
- 54:25Speaker 1: I'd say it, yeah. Well, I know a lot of
- 54:28guys who have taken steroids, especially because of the early
- 54:31days of the UFC. Everybody was taking steroids. And Pride
- 54:35in Japan, everyone was taking steroids. Not everyone, but most people.
- 54:41Rampage didn't, but there's a good percentage of people that did.
- 54:43Speaker 3: And while you found out But you found out later
- 54:45that steroids are not good for you. They soften the tendons,
- 54:48the ligaments, and then all of a sudden these athletes
- 54:51start having problems. They start getting hurt. They start getting hurt.
- 54:54Speaker 1: Start getting hurt. I think what happens is the muscles
- 54:58are too strong for the tendons. Because tendons take too long.
- 55:02They don't grow at the same pace as muscle tissue
- 55:04does when you're on steroids. They don't have the same
- 55:06sort of circulation.
- 55:07Speaker 3: I don't know anything about steroids. I don't know the
- 55:09dynamics or the physics of it.
- 55:11Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
- 55:14Speaker 3: I know the muscles get big, but the tendons don't.
- 55:16Speaker 1: Grow to match the muscles? Exactly. It takes longer for
- 55:21tendons to strengthen. Tendons don't have as much circulation. They
- 55:24don't have a good blood supply. That's why it's so
- 55:26hard when a tendon gets injured to heal. So what
- 55:30happens a lot of times is these guys develop these
- 55:32massive muscles, and they can move so much more weight,
- 55:35but the tendons haven't really caught up to what the
- 55:37muscles can do. A lot of times these guys wind
- 55:40up blowing out tendons.
- 55:41Speaker 3: I mean, that wrestling bunch, I mean, every one of
- 55:44those guys looked like an Adonis.
- 55:46Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, especially back in the day. Hey, Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger. Yeah. Well,
- 55:51he's open about it. He took a lot of steroids.
- 55:53You know what? We know it. Someone say it. Yeah.
- 55:57We're not stupid. Well, that's a sport where it's required.
- 56:00If you want to be Mr. Olympia, there's no way
- 56:02to get that kind of a body without steroids. It
- 56:04doesn't exist.
- 56:05Speaker 3: What about the WrestleMania bunch? You were part of that?
- 56:10Speaker 1: I wasn't. I wasn't a part of that. Not at all? No, no, no.
- 56:14But I'm sure a bunch of those guys probably take
- 56:16it too. That's how you get big. And if you're
- 56:19a wrestler and you want to be a professional wrestler,
- 56:23you want to be this hulking figure, there's one way
- 56:25to do it. You've got to take steroids. It's not
- 56:27a normal physique for someone to attain.
- 56:30Speaker 3: And you don't get tested for it.
- 56:31Speaker 1: Exactly. That's why the early days of the UFC, there
- 56:34was no testing. And then When it started getting sanctioned,
- 56:38then we were tested by athletic commissions, and then eventually
- 56:41the UFC realized we've got a real problem where these
- 56:43guys are figuring out how to beat the athletic commission's
- 56:46testing because it's only one day. So it was really
- 56:49more– they would call it an intelligence test rather than
- 56:52an IQ test.
- 56:53Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 56:54Speaker 1: And so then they started using USADA, and USADA would
- 56:57just randomly test people, and then they started catching people.
- 56:59And that's when physiques really changed.
- 57:01Speaker 3: Yeah, I– you know, that year– I'll say that year
- 57:07when those baseball players were hitting 60 home runs like
- 57:11it was nothing.
- 57:11Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 57:12Speaker 3: And you're looking at them and you're going, sheesh.

- 58:19Speaker 1: They should give them all steroids. It's the only time
- 58:21baseball's fun. I'll tell you what. It was... Yeah.
- 58:25Speaker 3: The viewers were tuning in.
- 58:27Speaker 1: A hundred percent.
- 58:28Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 58:29Speaker 1: The Mark McGuire, Sammy Sosa days, Barry Bonds.
- 58:32Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 58:33Speaker 1: Barry went from 185 to... I met Barry when he
- 58:39was normal sized.
- 58:40Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 58:40Speaker 1: When he was like a normal athlete and then he
- 58:42just got giant. But also... He was a great baseball
- 58:45player first.
- 58:46Speaker 3: First.
- 58:46Speaker 1: And then you give him all those steroids, and now
- 58:48he's got all this muscle, and he's just cracking them
- 58:51out of the park. Those are the good old days.
- 58:53They should have looked away. They should have turned their
- 58:56head away.
- 58:57Speaker 3: Boy, I'll tell you one thing.
- 58:59Speaker 1: I don't see nothing. Everybody should have shut the fuck
- 59:02up and let these guys take steroids. Let's go. Do
- 59:05you like home runs or not? Let's go. That's from
- 59:11Joe Rogan, ladies and gentlemen. We'll be back in a minute.
- 59:14The problem is it's the great American pastime and you
- 59:17don't want to associate the great American pastime with what
- 59:19people think is cheating.
- 59:21Speaker 3: Yeah, that's.
- 59:22Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 59:23Speaker 3: Look, there's guys that. Didn't need to do it to
- 59:26be in the Hall of Fame, and they're getting barred
- 59:28from the Hall of Fame.
- 59:29Speaker 1: That's true.
- 59:29Speaker 3: Barry's one of them. Barry was a great player with that.
- 59:32Speaker 1: Fantastic player. Mark McGuire. And so was Mark McGuire. And
- 59:35so was Sammy Sosa. Yeah.
- 59:37Speaker 3: Didn't need it. Maybe they didn't think they'd be noticed.
- 59:41Maybe they didn't think they'd get caught.
- 59:43Speaker 1: These guys got giant. I don't know how they didn't
- 59:46think the people would notice. They got enormous.
- 59:49Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure.
- 59:51Speaker 1: But, you know, hey, it is what it is. I
- 59:54mean— It was a fun time, though. Yeah. Fun time
- 59:57for baseball.
- 59:58Speaker 3: You know, I remember people asked me, they said, you
- 1:00:02didn't know your guys were on steroids? And hell, I
- 1:00:04didn't know what steroids was. I remember one time I
- 1:00:08was at the Hall of Fame. That was the question
- 1:00:11that came to me about steroids. I didn't know any better.
- 1:00:13I said, well, hell, everybody takes steroids. I took steroids
- 1:00:16for this, you know, but not antibiotic steroids.
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: Right, you took cortisone.
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't. correlate the differences. And one guy comes
- 1:00:24up to me, you idiot. There's two types, at least
- 1:00:29we know of. And I went, I didn't know. That's
- 1:00:31actually funny.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: You know what? Let me tell you the truth. Tell
- 1:00:35me the truth. I'm glad.
- 1:00:36Speaker 3: I'm glad that I was blindfolded. I'm glad my brain
- 1:00:40didn't function like that. I'm glad I didn't look at
- 1:00:42anybody and go, what's he on?
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: I didn't look. I just, hell, they're lifting weights, brother.
- 1:00:47They're just lifting weights.
- 1:00:48Speaker 3: God bless them. You know?
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: Well, that's a good attitude to have.
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: Yeah, and then they say, well, your team was on steroids. Well,
- 1:00:57if that's the case, it wasn't illegal. Everybody was doing it. Right.
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: Not only that, but let's be realistic. Most teams were
- 1:01:05on steroids because you're professionals and you want to do
- 1:01:08your best. And if you've got a bunch of guys
- 1:01:11and the way they can do their best is to
- 1:01:12be as strong as they possibly can be, they're going
- 1:01:15to take steroids, especially when it's legal. Yeah, it just–
- 1:01:19Especially when it's legal.
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: You don't want to say it was a product of
- 1:01:21the times, but in essence it was.
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: Well, every time the times change, when there's something effective
- 1:01:26that comes along like steroids, you're going to have a
- 1:01:28bunch of people that want an edge. And, you know,
- 1:01:30there was a time where people thought of creatine like steroids. Right? Yeah.
- 1:01:34Creatine is a very beneficial supplement that everybody should take.
- 1:01:38It's great for your brain. It's great for mitochondrial function.
- 1:01:42It's great for muscle.
- 1:01:42Speaker 3: I heard blueberries are good for your brain.
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: Blueberries are good for your brain.
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: Frank O'Hara, she used to tell me, Brad— Are you
- 1:01:48eating a lot of blueberries? I said, Franco, you're not
- 1:01:50going to believe this, but I buy blueberries all the
- 1:01:52time because of you. Yeah, it's good for your brain.
- 1:01:55Good for your brain. They are. And I love blueberries.
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: Yeah. A lot of antioxidants in them too. Yeah.
- 1:01:59Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: Blueberries are just great, period. Yeah. But, you know, when
- 1:02:03you're doing things for your body, when you're a professional athlete, it's,
- 1:02:08of course, there's going to be a bunch of people
- 1:02:10that are on steroids. Like, yeah, if you want to
- 1:02:12get bigger, that's the way to do it. Like, what
- 1:02:15are we doing here? We're lying.
- 1:02:16Speaker 3: Think they do it today?
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: Do you think they don't do it today? That's the
- 1:02:20real question.
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: No, I asked you.
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: They definitely do something. They do whatever the fuck they
- 1:02:24can get away with. Do you see how big these
- 1:02:25kids are coming out of high school? Well, there's also genetics.
- 1:02:28People change.
- 1:02:29Speaker 3: Well, kids in nine days are eating better, training better.
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: Eating better, training better, more nutrition.
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: They're huge. They're huge.
- 1:02:38Speaker 3: I think my offensive line in the 70s averaged about
- 1:02:42maybe 260 yards. 260.
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: Wow. 260. That's like 100 pounds difference in today, right? Yeah.
- 1:02:48Speaker 3: Now you'll have these coaches, my offensive line this year
- 1:02:51going to be 6'5, 372. And you go, whoa.
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: That's huge. And then they'll say something like, but got
- 1:03:01quick feet.
- 1:03:03Speaker 3: Okay, got quick feet.
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: I love quick feet. It's crazy when you see some
- 1:03:07of these guys doing the 40. You've been on the sideline?
- 1:03:10I've watched videos. I haven't been live. Go to the sideline.
- 1:03:13Seven feet tall, 440 pounds. That is crazy. Look at that.
- 1:03:167 foot 380. Oh, my God. Look at that. As
- 1:03:27an eighth grader. Go back to that picture. As an
- 1:03:29eighth grader, he was 6 foot 10, 450 pounds.
- 1:03:33Speaker 3: In fucking junior high school.
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: Junior high school. Yeah. Desmond Weston. Look at that. Desmond Watson.
- 1:03:43464 pounds. Heaviest player. Wow.
- 1:03:48Speaker 3: Oh, he's in the NFL.
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: Yeah. NFL history. Wow. 464 pounds. That's so big.
- 1:03:55Speaker 3: Here's what I'll say about my guys. My guys could
- 1:03:58put on their pants and nothing rolled over.
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: Oh, I see what you're saying.
- 1:04:03Speaker 3: Yeah. They were flat-bellied. They were in shape because we
- 1:04:05ran a— our game was all about motion, traps and specials
- 1:04:12and leads and stuff like that.
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: They had to run.
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: They had to run, and they ran. And if they
- 1:04:17were 400 pounds, you're going to pull this guy 400 pounds?
- 1:04:22I mean, so if I were coached today, just my thinking,
- 1:04:29what I want, I want an athletic guy.
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: I don't want a big guy.
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: I don't want a guy that you go, all right,
- 1:04:35we're going to do gassers. Billy John, William Earl, whatever.
- 1:04:41Y'all go ahead and go on and get a shower. No, 380,
- 1:04:44whatever they can. They can't run gassers. Right.
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: They can't run gassers.
- 1:04:48Speaker 3: Right.
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: You know, or run the mile.
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: We had to run a Steeler mile every year when
- 1:04:52we got to training camp. Well, if you're 325, 35, 90,
- 1:04:57I don't want to pigeonhole everybody because there are some
- 1:04:59guys I've seen in the NFL that I've walked by
- 1:05:02before the game started. And I turned to Howie. Howie's
- 1:05:05always at me. We're always together.
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: I went, holy. Isn't there a utility, though? Isn't there
- 1:05:11a value, a function of a big, giant dude that
- 1:05:14maybe can't run gassers but can stop a play dead
- 1:05:18in its tracks because you're running into a brick wall?
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: Right. Maybe he's only got to go five yards.
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Oh, absolutely. Yeah. Yeah. But that
- 1:05:25wasn't how I was brought up.
- 1:05:27Speaker 3: Right. I understand.
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: That wasn't what I was taught. But obviously you're a
- 1:05:30fan of the game still. Oh, for sure. And you
- 1:05:32still watch the game. Yeah. How much has the game
- 1:05:33changed from when, like 1970, your first year in the NFL?
- 1:05:36We're talking about it. but like big but would you
- 1:05:39imagine that the guys from 1970 would fit right into
- 1:05:43today's game oh.
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: No no no no no no size joe green made
- 1:05:49the hall of fame at 275 275 uh jack lambert
- 1:05:55uh 218 admitted linebacker hall of famer jack how big
- 1:05:58was jim brown in his prime Jim Brown, I never
- 1:06:01played against Jim Brown.
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: Right, it was before your time, but how big was
- 1:06:03Jim Brown?
- 1:06:05Speaker 3: Probably 220, maybe 215.
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: Isn't that crazy?
- 1:06:07Speaker 3: Yeah, so I always say, size-wise, we can't do it.
- 1:06:13And then, of course, you want to really get into it,
- 1:06:15then talk about money and stuff like that, but.
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: Size-wise, size-wise.
- 1:06:19Speaker 3: Now, I will say this, the wide receivers, the quarterbacks,
- 1:06:23the running backs could play today, and probably the tight ends,
- 1:06:27but then when you get My center weighed 252. And
- 1:06:31I always say, since I'm in the cattle business, I'll
- 1:06:34take a little young bull. I'll take my Angus bull
- 1:06:37over your Charolais bull anytime. Your Charolais bull is going
- 1:06:40to be, or Simmental is going to be huge up
- 1:06:42off the ground. But my Angus bull is going to
- 1:06:44get under him and be able to control him with technique.
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: Wait a minute. You got bulls fighting each other? Is
- 1:06:51that what you're saying? No, Joe.
- 1:06:52Speaker 3: You're not listening. I'm trying to listen.
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: You're okay.
- 1:06:56Speaker 3: You get some rest last night.
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: I did. Okay, good. Fully rested. You got a big bull. Right? Yeah.
- 1:07:02Got a big bull. The little bull can get under him.
- 1:07:04He's already got the leverage because he's under the big bull.
- 1:07:07Got it.
- 1:07:07Speaker 3: The big bull's got to get down to get leverage
- 1:07:09on the little bull. I understand what you're saying. He's
- 1:07:11got all the mass and the weight outnumbered.
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: Sort of like Mike Tyson in his prime. Woo! Right?
- 1:07:16Speaker 3: That's a bad sucker.
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: Bad as it gets.
- 1:07:19Speaker 3: Bad.
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: Baddest man ever.
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: He came in a restaurant I was in, and he
- 1:07:23saw me, and he came over, and he pulled up
- 1:07:24a chair. There was an owl, and I'm sitting over
- 1:07:27here next to the wall, and then there's dinner chairs here.
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: He went over. He pulled up a chair, slid over,
- 1:07:33blocked the owl, and we.
- 1:07:34Speaker 3: Talked about Johnny and Ninus for an hour.
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:07:38Speaker 3: Mike Tyson.
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: That's pretty cool. Well, he's a giant fan of all
- 1:07:42kinds of athletes. You know what I mean? That guy
- 1:07:44studies— He studies warriors and athletes and former generals. Really? Oh,
- 1:07:51he knows so much about Genghis Khan. Me and him,
- 1:07:53we had this long conversation. He knew his original name,
- 1:07:56which is Temujin.
- 1:07:56Speaker 3: Do you know anything about Genghis Khan?
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: Yeah, I did. I knew a lot about it. Well,
- 1:08:00not a lot, I would say, but I got pretty obsessed.
- 1:08:03There's a guy named Dan Carlin. He's got a fantastic
- 1:08:06series called Hardcore History. It's a podcast. And he had
- 1:08:10this series on Genghis Khan called The Wrath of the Khan.
- 1:08:13And that got me obsessed. That opened up the door.
- 1:08:16And then I started reading books on Genghis Khan and
- 1:08:18watching documentaries. And I got obsessed.
- 1:08:21Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a huge documentary guy.
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: But he knew so much about Genghis Khan. He knew
- 1:08:25his original name, which was Temujin. He knew his whole
- 1:08:27story about how he was born with a blood clot
- 1:08:29in his hand. Mike knew everything about it. Yeah, Mike studies, like, conquerors,
- 1:08:36you know? People would know that about him.
- 1:08:38Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: He's a very smart guy.
- 1:08:40Speaker 3: Yeah, people would know that.
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: Mike is a very interesting guy. He's not what people
- 1:08:44think of. You think of Mike Tyson as being this
- 1:08:47mindless destroyer. He's very intelligent.
- 1:08:52Speaker 3: You ever think about why do athletes have an image?
- 1:08:58My image was the Dodgers.
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: Guy.
- 1:09:01Speaker 3: Do you ever ask yourself a question? Why is your
- 1:09:05opinion about Mike Tyson so different now since you interviewed him?
- 1:09:10But prior to that. That wasn't out in the press,
- 1:09:13was it? No.
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: Maybe later in his career, but— You'd have to— you' d watch
- 1:09:19a guy fight like that, and he fought so brutally.
- 1:09:22And if you weren't a student of boxing, you wouldn't
- 1:09:24understand the amount of thinking that has to take place
- 1:09:28to get that good. It's not just that he's just
- 1:09:31running at people and punching them. He's bobbing and weaving.
- 1:09:34He's being incredibly elusive. He's shifting his weight to the
- 1:09:37left and shifting his weight to the right. He's cutting
- 1:09:39angles like a middleweight. He's doing things to these guys
- 1:09:42that they've never seen a heavyweight do before. And he
- 1:09:45also was a giant student of boxing. So his manager
- 1:09:50was a guy named Jim Jacobs. A short guy. He
- 1:09:52was like 5'11 in his prime for a heavyweight. There's
- 1:09:54the bull issue right there. Bull, like 20-inch neck. I mean,
- 1:09:58he was a tank. And his manager was this guy,
- 1:10:02Jim Jacobs. Jim Jacobs was a boxing historian. And he
- 1:10:06had all of these old film reels of everyone from
- 1:10:09Jack Johnson to Stanley Ketchell to Jack Dempsey, like all
- 1:10:14the old time fighters. And Mike would watch those all
- 1:10:17day long. So he would train and he would watch
- 1:10:20these guys all day long. So he had an access
- 1:10:22to film footage everywhere. That most fighters, all you could
- 1:10:26see is the guys in the gym and the guys
- 1:10:28that you saw fight live back in those days in
- 1:10:31the 80s. There was no VHS tapes. There was no
- 1:10:34real tapes of boxing that you could watch back then.
- 1:10:37So when Mike– this is when Mike was like 13.
- 1:10:39So Mike was 13 years old and he's watching film
- 1:10:42of the greatest– Sugar Ray Robinson, the greatest boxers of
- 1:10:45all time. Willie Pepp, Rocky Marciano. He's watching all these
- 1:10:48guys and absorbing their styles and figuring out like it
- 1:10:52takes– intelligence to do that. That's not what a dumb
- 1:10:56guy would do. A dumb guy wouldn't see, oh, when
- 1:11:00he does this, it's because of that, so he can
- 1:11:03avoid the counter and duck underneath and hit him at
- 1:11:05an angle where he can't hit him. Beautiful. I'm going
- 1:11:08to incorporate that into my training and figure out how
- 1:11:10to find those patterns in scoring.
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: I always thought, because you hear a counterpunch, do you
- 1:11:17know how hard it is And I'm not a boxer.
- 1:11:21But when someone, you watch their training and then they're like,
- 1:11:25when does this counterpunch? Do you know how fast that
- 1:11:29brain has to work for you to counterpunch?
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: Oh, you have to be lightning fast. Lightning fast. And
- 1:11:34you have to have trained it a thousand times.
- 1:11:37Speaker 3: You want to be hit all day long in the face,
- 1:11:39in the stomach.
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: It's a tough way to make a living, but so
- 1:11:42is football. And especially back when you guys were playing,
- 1:11:45when they would just shoot you up with stuff.
- 1:11:46Speaker 3: Well, it was different for sure, but boxing, holy cow.
- 1:11:49I met Muhammad Ali one time. I was 6'3 1⁄2.
- 1:11:55I'm 6'1 1⁄2 now. And I was looking up to him,
- 1:11:58and I'm sure he wasn't any taller, but I was
- 1:12:00looking up to him because I was so impressed. And,
- 1:12:04you know, we had a great first-time meeting. He was
- 1:12:10a fan of mine.
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: I didn't know it.
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: It was like, whoa. That made me great. And I
- 1:12:14went to a couple of banquets that he was at,
- 1:12:16and he'd send notes down to me to come down
- 1:12:18and say hello to him. I'm going to bother him.
- 1:12:22And I'd go to him. Hey, champ, how you doing?
- 1:12:25It's Terry Bradshaw. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: Have you heard this one? He'd tell me a joke.
- 1:12:29A joke. That's the last thing I expected from Muhammad Ali.
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: Yeah, but I love Muhammad Ali.
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: That was an incredibly intelligent guy. And also the first
- 1:12:40guy to figure out how to get attention by talking.
- 1:12:43Speaker 3: And we hated him for it. I didn't like him.
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: Did you like him? I loved him. I didn't like him.
- 1:12:48I was younger.
- 1:12:49Speaker 3: I didn't like him.
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: I grew up in an era of respect.
- 1:12:53Speaker 3: Right. You respect your opponent. You don't say anything bad
- 1:12:58about him. You give him all the praise when it's
- 1:13:01all said. You respect your opponent. You don't showboat. You
- 1:13:05don't do anything. You don't run into the end zone.
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: You don't do this.
- 1:13:08Speaker 3: You respect your opponent. And that's the way that I
- 1:13:12was raised. And actually the way I was coached. And
- 1:13:18I had a hard time when Billy White Shoes Johnson
- 1:13:22of Houston would get in the end zone. He'd start
- 1:13:24doing that dance and everything. I don't like it at all.
- 1:13:28And Billy White Shoes is a good dude, you know.
- 1:13:32But I didn't like it at all. I just don't
- 1:13:33like any athlete. Drawing attention to himself. If you're playing
- 1:13:39tennis or golf, okay, that's one thing because it's you.
- 1:13:42But when you're playing a team event, somebody else had
- 1:13:48to do that job too. Right. I just had a
- 1:13:50hard time with that.
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: I see what you're saying. Yeah. In a team sport.
- 1:13:53But in boxing, boxing is just one-on-one. But you still
- 1:13:56didn't like it even in boxing.
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: Bragging. Yeah.
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: Now I look back. Now, of course, I love it now. Yeah.
- 1:14:02But he knew what he was doing. Well, it's psychological warfare.
- 1:14:06Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: That's what it is. I mean, he had Sonny Liston
- 1:14:09so confused before he fought him. He would show up
- 1:14:11at Sonny Liston's house in, like, the middle of the
- 1:14:13night and stand on his lawn and scream at him. Yeah,
- 1:14:16he was just fucking with that guy's head. He was
- 1:14:18climbing inside of his head and, like, making sure that
- 1:14:20all day long he's thinking about him. And he also
- 1:14:24thought he was a legitimate insane person. Like, the way
- 1:14:27he was acting, he was not acting like a rational person.
- 1:14:30So he was worried all the time. So he's, like,
- 1:14:31worried that you're around this insane person. What? You ever
- 1:14:35see the video where they met?
- 1:14:37Speaker 3: Listen, if you can do that and back it up,
- 1:14:42which he did, then I tip my hat to you.
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: Did you ever see the video where they ran into
- 1:14:48each other at a casino? No. So Sonny Liston was
- 1:14:50at a casino. I think Sonny was playing cards, and
- 1:14:53Muhammad Ali, back when he was Cassius Clay, came up
- 1:14:57behind him, and he starts ranting and raving and saying
- 1:14:59crazy shit, and Sonny pulls out a gun. Oh. and
- 1:15:03shoots it into the air, and everybody scatters. It was
- 1:15:05a blank gun. But he anticipated that Ali was going
- 1:15:10to do that to him. So he said, I'm going
- 1:15:12to scare the shit out of this. You want to
- 1:15:13play crazy? Let's play crazy. See if you can find
- 1:15:16that video, Jamie. The video is amazing. It's amazing. Because
- 1:15:19he just pulls this, and then he shows, like, shoots.
- 1:15:22Here it is. Put your headphones on real quick. Grab
- 1:15:24his headphone. Yeah, pull it up. Bring it back to
- 1:15:29the beginning.
- 1:15:29Speaker 3: Got it.
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: Drawing a gun, Sonny fired.
- 1:15:32Speaker 3: The whole situation finally came to a head when Clay approached.
- 1:15:35Speaker 1: Liston at the Desert Inn in Las Vegas, where the
- 1:15:38champ was shooting craps and losing.
- 1:15:41Speaker 3: Liston was in no mood to be harangued by the
- 1:15:44mouth from the south.
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: Drawing a gun, Sonny fired, frightening his young tormentor into
- 1:15:49a hasty retreat. The inn was filled with blanks. So
- 1:15:54he shot the gun into his jacket to show everybody
- 1:15:57that it was just a blank. That is crazy, though.
- 1:16:01So he was prepared. Isn't that funny? He had blanks.
- 1:16:04That's crazy, brother. That's pretty smart. Is it? Yeah, because
- 1:16:08you got this guy's acting crazy. Like, I'm going to
- 1:16:11out-crazy him. I don't want to shoot anybody, but I'm
- 1:16:14going to out-crazy him. Give me a gun with some blanks.
- 1:16:17And just pull it out.
- 1:16:19Speaker 3: Alex Baldwin had a huge lawsuit because he pulled out
- 1:16:22whether the gun was a blank and killed somebody. I mean,
- 1:16:24that's crazy.
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: Yes, that was a problem with the person who was
- 1:16:28handling the guns. Yeah, exactly. What?
- 1:16:30Speaker 4: Well, okay, that wasn't even Sonny Liston.
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: What do you mean that wasn't Sonny Liston? That absolutely
- 1:16:36was Sonny Liston.
- 1:16:37Speaker 4: It says it's from a movie.
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: Bro, that's Sonny Liston.
- 1:16:40Speaker 4: The man with the gun is an actor, not Sonny Liston.
- 1:16:42Let me see that again.
- 1:16:43Speaker 3: What?
- 1:16:43Speaker 4: So it's a recreation of the actual.
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: Scene that happened?
- 1:16:52Speaker 4: There's no real footage of Liston firing a gun at Ali.
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: What?
- 1:16:56Speaker 4: Dramatic clips circulating online. The one in nearly every rare
- 1:16:59footage post is a scene from a 1977 film called
- 1:17:03The Greatest.
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: Oh, I saw that movie. So let me see it again.
- 1:17:07Can I see the video again? That's crazy.
- 1:17:11Speaker 3: There you are.
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: That's crazy. I would have swore that's Sonny Liston.
- 1:17:15Speaker 4: You're listening to a narrator talk, and this one even
- 1:17:18has a narrator.
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: Over a narrator.
- 1:17:19Speaker 3: Wasn't Sonny Liston bald?
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: No. No, Sonny Liston wasn't bald. No? Oh, that isn't
- 1:17:24Sonny Liston. Well, the video is so blurry. All right.
- 1:17:28Speaker 3: There you have it.
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: Wow. That's not Sonny Liston. Oh, my God. I feel
- 1:17:33like such a dumbass. Find footage of Sonny Liston training.
- 1:17:38So he was, back in the day, he was the
- 1:17:42scariest heavyweight. Sonny Liston was the guy. Wasn't he in prison?
- 1:17:46What's that?
- 1:17:47Speaker 3: When he went to prison?
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: Yeah, he went to prison. But it was the way
- 1:17:51he won the title, the way he knocked out Floyd Patterson.
- 1:17:55It looked like Floyd Patterson had no business being in
- 1:17:57there with him. He was that good. That good and
- 1:17:59that big. And a lot of people going into that
- 1:18:01fight thought Muhammad Ali had no chance. They thought that
- 1:18:04he was going to get killed because– You know, Ali
- 1:18:06was a very good fighter. He was up and coming fast,
- 1:18:10really fast with his footwork and his movement. But everybody
- 1:18:13thought that it was just a matter of time before
- 1:18:14Liston got him. That's crazy. I recognize that guy, that actor.
- 1:18:18Is that the actor that was in Magnum P.I.? I
- 1:18:25think it is.
- 1:18:27Speaker 4: The actor's name is Roger E.
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: Mosley? Yeah, Magnum P.I. Aha! Look at you. Look at me.
- 1:18:33You proud of yourself? A little bit. I feel slightly
- 1:18:35better now, but I'm ashamed that I didn't realize that
- 1:18:38that wasn't actually Sonny Liston. So find some footage of
- 1:18:41Sonny Liston training.
- 1:18:43Speaker 4: Even on this, some of this I think has already
- 1:18:45got some AI footage in it.
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: Oh, really? Well, there's footage of him hitting. the bag.
- 1:18:50There's Sonny. There's footage of Sonny hitting the bag, and
- 1:18:54he would just put these holes in the bag. He
- 1:18:56had just murderous punching power. He was such a dangerous guy,
- 1:19:00and everyone was scared of him back then. Because he
- 1:19:03was this towering, hulking figure, Dr. Brianna had massive hands. And,
- 1:19:08I mean, he would brutalize his sparring partners. I mean,
- 1:19:10Sonny Liston was putting people away. I mean, he— look at
- 1:19:15the size of his hands. Just gigantic hands and tremendous power. But,
- 1:19:21you know, Ali figured out a way to just.
- 1:19:24Speaker 3: It didn't even look like the punch that took him
- 1:19:26out was even that big a punch.
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: That's the second fight. That's the Lewiston-Maine fight. Oh, that's
- 1:19:30the second one? Yeah, that's the fight when they fought
- 1:19:32in Lewiston-Maine. And that one is very tricky because– so
- 1:19:35he would hit guys with jabs and have them rocked.
- 1:19:39His hands were so massive and his power was so extraordinary.
- 1:19:43You ever boxed? I did some boxing.
- 1:19:45Speaker 3: I did it one time.
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: I did kickboxing, but I didn't do any, like, sport boxing. No, no, no, kickboxing.
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: Get that. Bad enough you hit me with your fist.
- 1:19:54Don't kick me with your feet. I don't want any
- 1:19:56part of that. But I boxed one time, one round.
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:19:59Speaker 3: And I said that.
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: That's it? That's it. Yeah. Again, it's like cooking duck.
- 1:20:05It's something you've got to learn how to do. You
- 1:20:07can't just jump in and think you're going to be
- 1:20:09good at it. Yeah, well, I wasn't good at it.
- 1:20:12Not only that, I don't want to be hit. Yeah. Yeah,
- 1:20:15not fun. Well, back in the day, and you're– your day,
- 1:20:18the way guys would treat getting hit, if you got hit,
- 1:20:22there was no, like, take a game off, get evaluated. No. Nothing.
- 1:20:28Concussion protocol. Hop right back in, son. Are you awake?
- 1:20:32Speaker 3: I played against the Miami Dolphins in a playoff game,
- 1:20:38and I got knocked out. I mean, knocked out.
- 1:20:42Speaker 1: And I guess I came to in the fourth quarter.
- 1:20:46Speaker 3: I went back in.
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: Played pretty good, too. Wow. Not that I lost the game,
- 1:20:49but yeah. So you got knocked out, woke up, and
- 1:20:52then they put you back in after you woke up.
- 1:20:54Speaker 3: Well, something like that.
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:20:57Speaker 3: I went out in the first quarter, I think. I
- 1:20:59scored on touchdown, kept it, got knocked out, and came
- 1:21:03back in the fourth quarter. Yeah.
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: Different. Different. Different. Oh, yeah. Nowadays, if a player gets
- 1:21:10knocked out, how much time do they make them take off?
- 1:21:12They're going to a.
- 1:21:13Speaker 3: Tent, and now you have a concussion guy in the
- 1:21:16booth representing the NFL, so they'll tell you to get
- 1:21:20him out. Right. And they go into a tent, and
- 1:21:23they get evaluated. More than likely, if they've been stunned,
- 1:21:26they're not going back in.
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: How much time do they make them take off before
- 1:21:29they let them play again?
- 1:21:30Speaker 3: But they have to get evaluated every week, so it
- 1:21:33could be. What is that?
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: Little baby cigars. It's when you don't want to finish
- 1:21:37a big one.
- 1:21:38Speaker 3: Oh.
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: Little tiny ones. They're little Monte Cristos. Oh, okay. I
- 1:21:41like these sometimes. All right. But when they do that,
- 1:21:47and these guys are KO'd today if they get knocked out,
- 1:21:50do they have like a 30-day rule?
- 1:21:52Speaker 3: No, it's not 30 days, but they do go. They
- 1:21:56go in. They keep getting evaluated, and you'll have some guys.
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: Jamie says there's no set timeline for discovery. There you go. Well,
- 1:22:06for recovery, rather, players must progress through these graded exertion
- 1:22:10phases without any increase in symptoms. Symptom-limited activity, prescribed rest
- 1:22:15with limited physical and cognitive activity, transitioning to light stretching
- 1:22:19and monitored light aerobic exercise. So with the UFC, when
- 1:22:23a guy gets knocked out, generally athletic commissions put a
- 1:22:26hold on them, like it's a 90-day hold. And then
- 1:22:29some of them have like 60-day no contact, so they're
- 1:22:32not even allowed to spar for 60 days.
- 1:22:33Speaker 3: If you get knocked out and that brain gets rattled
- 1:22:36like that, the best game I played in high school,
- 1:22:42the best game I played in high school, a guy
- 1:22:45by the name of Larry Brewer, I fumbled coming out
- 1:22:47of it. out of the pocket in high school against
- 1:22:50Minden High School. I'm rolling to the right, and I
- 1:22:53think the ball hits my leg, and it hits the ground,
- 1:22:57and it goes, boom, boom. And I'm chasing it. And
- 1:23:02about the time I get to the ball and get
- 1:23:04my hands on it, I pick my head up, boom, out, out.
- 1:23:11I don't remember anything. And then I'm back in the game, And,
- 1:23:16I mean, it's the best game I played in high school. Joe,
- 1:23:21dead serious. Best game I played in high school. Maybe
- 1:23:24I wasn't worried.
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: I don't know. That's what I was going to ask you.
- 1:23:27It's crazy. I wonder if that's it.
- 1:23:30Speaker 3: Listen, I've been to a couple of clinics just for
- 1:23:36brain work, just to get them.
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: Checked out?
- 1:23:40Speaker 3: Yeah, all the tests that they could possibly do, extensive tests.
- 1:23:44Because I was having trouble remembering, did I open the gate?
- 1:23:47Did I open the gate this morning?
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: Right, right. I did.
- 1:23:51Speaker 3: I opened the gate. I'm sure I opened the gate.
- 1:23:53And I pushed the button. And when the button's green,
- 1:23:55the gate is moving. And then it goes red.
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: It stopped.
- 1:23:59Speaker 3: I mean, it goes yellow.
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: It stopped.
- 1:24:01Speaker 3: Then I push a button. It goes red. It's holding.
- 1:24:03It's staying open. Six times. I remember six times. And
- 1:24:07I'm like, did I push this button? Then I remember, okay,
- 1:24:12something's wrong. Someone got checked. Yeah.
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: How long ago was this? Years ago.
- 1:24:16Speaker 3: Years. 30 plus years ago.
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: And did they do something for you? Did they?
- 1:24:25Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. I don't think anything came.
- 1:24:30I remember testing. I got tested and found out I
- 1:24:32had ADD, which was not a shocker, but was a shocker.
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: I think everybody has that. Yeah. Everybody's any good at anything,
- 1:24:41has it?
- 1:24:42Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. Creative people have ADD.
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: Creative people are people that are, like, really into one thing. Yeah. Like,
- 1:24:48full on into it.
- 1:24:49Speaker 3: Well, they say, well, you're focused on this. Yeah, but
- 1:24:52when I'm fishing, I'm focused. Right. When I'm showing horses,
- 1:24:56I don't have a problem.
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 1:24:57Speaker 3: I'm focused. But if I'm taking geometry or going to chocolate.
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: Exactly. Yeah, exactly. No interest. Exactly. No interest. Yeah. So, yeah. So, that.
- 1:25:05If I'm learning something I'm not interested in, I have
- 1:25:07no focus.
- 1:25:09Speaker 3: I mean, you got to sit here and study all
- 1:25:10this stuff for all these different people. Right. And I
- 1:25:13know you got to be interested in them.
- 1:25:14Speaker 1: You have to be interested. Yes. You got to be interested.
- 1:25:17But then I think there's people that don't have a
- 1:25:19problem being interested and they can study anything and God
- 1:25:22bless them. I'm not one of those people. I have
- 1:25:23to be interested in what I'm talking about. You had
- 1:25:25Bradley Cooper on. Love Bradley Cooper.
- 1:25:27Speaker 3: Yeah, he did. He's awesome. With the brain guy, the
- 1:25:32atom bomb guy.
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: Oppenheimer?
- 1:25:35Speaker 3: Oppenheimer movie.
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: He was in that movie? That's right.
- 1:25:37Speaker 3: Well, he directed it.
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: That's right. And he was in it. He directed it, right? No,
- 1:25:43he did. He did, right? He didn't direct it. What's that?
- 1:25:46Christopher Nolan. That's right. It's Christopher Nolan directed it. Bradley
- 1:25:50was in Oppenheimer? Yes. Yes. What was his role? He's
- 1:25:53been in so many things, I forgot.
- 1:25:54Speaker 3: Wasn't he in Oppenheimer?
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: No. Okay. Oh, my bad. What are you thinking of?
- 1:25:59The music guy.
- 1:25:59Speaker 3: Maestro. Yeah.
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: He did Maestro. He directed that and starred in it. Oh, yes.
- 1:26:04Speaker 4: Oh.
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:26:05Speaker 3: Phenomenal.
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: I was trying to agree with you. I was like,
- 1:26:07what was Bradley in Oppenheimer? I haven't seen Oppenheimer in
- 1:26:10a couple of years. I was just checking to see
- 1:26:11if you were paying attention. That dude who played Oppenheimer.
- 1:26:19Speaker 3: He won an Oscar. Did he win an Oscar?
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: At least he was up for it. Cyril Murphy, right?
- 1:26:23Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: That guy is phenomenal. What? Cillian Murphy. Cillian Murphy.
- 1:26:29Speaker 3: Cillian Murphy.
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: Cillian Murphy. Well, anyway. He's phenomenal in Peaky Blinders.
- 1:26:33Speaker 3: Anybody that can act has got my attention because Cooper
- 1:26:36Bradley is.
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: Well, real acting, right? Real acting. Real acting. I've done
- 1:26:40some sitcom acting. That shit's pretty easy.
- 1:26:42Speaker 3: And you were probably Joe, right?
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: I played Joe.
- 1:26:44Speaker 3: And I'm Jerry Bradshaw. Exactly. And I've done like five movies.
- 1:26:47And people say, oh, man, you're not.
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: No, no, no. I'm no actor. But like, you know,
- 1:26:52Daniel Day-Lewis type acting. Whoa, that's him?
- 1:26:54Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: That's crazy.
- 1:26:56Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: That's crazy.
- 1:26:58Speaker 3: That's Bradley. Yeah.
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: My God, the fucking makeup they do today is insane.
- 1:27:03Speaker 3: He was amazing in that movie.
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: Isn't that crazy they could make it look that realistic?
- 1:27:07That is nuts. Leonard Bernstein. Hell, there you go.
- 1:27:11Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: Did you see the movie? That is amazing. Did you
- 1:27:13see it? I did not.
- 1:27:15Speaker 3: When you had him on here, did you tell him
- 1:27:17you saw it?
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: I did not. I would have probably.
- 1:27:22Speaker 3: I'd be like, oh, yeah. It's like I had a guy,
- 1:27:25we went back to high school and met the assistant
- 1:27:27trainer for the first time in years.
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: I didn't know his name.
- 1:27:32Speaker 3: And this buddy of.
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: Mine, how you doing, man? Get over here. I'm like,
- 1:27:38he knows this guy.
- 1:27:38Speaker 3: And they're going on, give me a hug, you son
- 1:27:42of a gun. And for why he did this, I'll
- 1:27:46never know.
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: He goes.
- 1:27:49Speaker 3: What's my name? What's my name? He said that to him.
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: What's my name? And I'm over there and I'm like, oh.
- 1:27:56Speaker 3: My God, this is hilarious.
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: It is hilarious.
- 1:27:59Speaker 3: He didn't have a clue. He didn't have a clue.
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: Well, he probably forgot if he left the gate open too.
- 1:28:04You know, give the guy a break. Give the guy
- 1:28:08a break.
- 1:28:08Speaker 3: But still, you know what I do all the time?
- 1:28:11And I'll tell people this. Look, I don't, what's your
- 1:28:14name again?
- 1:28:15Speaker 1: Joe. Joe.
- 1:28:18Speaker 3: Hey, I, I may ask you again what your name is,
- 1:28:22and then I may ask you again, but I'm going
- 1:28:25to get your name right. I don't want to sit
- 1:28:27here and not know who you are.
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: People get mad at that. I don't think people should
- 1:28:33get mad at that. It's just a thing that happens
- 1:28:37to people, and it definitely happens to people that meet
- 1:28:38too many people. Do you know what Dunbar's number is? No.
- 1:28:43Dunbar's number is a number of people that you can
- 1:28:46keep in your memory. Because we evolved in tribal societies
- 1:28:51of small groups of people.
- 1:28:52Speaker 3: Where are you getting all this?
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: I just... Remember somebody tell you this? Somebody. Oh, definitely.
- 1:28:56I didn't study it. This is Dunbar's number. So the
- 1:29:00max amount of relationships a person can maintain. Oh, yeah.
- 1:29:05Which one are you? Whoa, whoa, whoa. Where are you?
- 1:29:06Where are you? Where are you in the five? You
- 1:29:11are zero. Your patient is zero. And five are the
- 1:29:14people that are very close to you. So that's your
- 1:29:16support people. And then 15 are your sympathy group. They're
- 1:29:19not quite as close as like the closest people to you,
- 1:29:22but they're pretty close. And then there's a close network
- 1:29:25of 50 people. Then you have a personal network of
- 1:29:28150 people. You have 500 acquaintances and then 1,500 people
- 1:29:33that are recognizable. You know what's funny? I make this
- 1:29:36bad habit. We all have bad habits.
- 1:29:38Speaker 3: My bad habit is, oh, he's a friend of mine.
- 1:29:40I know Henry Winkler. I know Henry Winkler.
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: I know Henry Winkler, too. I did a movie with
- 1:29:45him once. He's a great guy. Sweetheart. And my wife says,
- 1:29:49and I'll say, I have his number.
- 1:29:53Speaker 3: I have his number in my phone. And I do
- 1:29:56have Henry's number. But I'll say, oh, because I've met them,
- 1:30:01I automatically associate them.
- 1:30:02Speaker 1: With being my friend. I do the same thing.
- 1:30:05Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: My wife will say, when did you talk to him last?
- 1:30:10Speaker 3: Well.
- 1:30:11Speaker 1: I haven't. These people I haven't talked to for years
- 1:30:14and years and years. They're still my friends. I'm a
- 1:30:17friendly guy. Yeah. I like a lot of people. I do.
- 1:30:22But in my circle, we all surround ourselves.
- 1:30:26Speaker 3: Our best friends are people that we have a lot
- 1:30:30in common with and we share common values, common likes,
- 1:30:34whether it's.
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: Horses, cattle.
- 1:30:35Speaker 3: My whole world is horses and cattle, horses and cattle.
- 1:30:39The people that booked me for speeches are dear, dear
- 1:30:42friends of mine. Howie, dear friend. Kirk Menefee, dear friend.
- 1:30:47I work with him. I love being around him. Tell
- 1:30:50him I love him. I have a habit of telling
- 1:30:52you I love you. Joe, I love you, man.
- 1:30:53Speaker 1: I love you, too, Terry. I love you, man. I
- 1:30:55do the same thing. Yeah.
- 1:30:57Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:30:57Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:30:59Speaker 3: Do you really love him?
- 1:31:01Speaker 1: I do. Well, it means... No.
- 1:31:03Speaker 3: What it means is I like him more than I
- 1:31:05just like.
- 1:31:05Speaker 1: You're just... Yeah, I love him. I'm elevating you a
- 1:31:07little bit here. Yeah.
- 1:31:09Speaker 3: My wife is so smart. She's just like, you really
- 1:31:11got their number? I said, yeah, I got their number.
- 1:31:14And they're friends of yours?
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: Yeah, they're friends.
- 1:31:17Speaker 3: When's the last time you talked to them? Well, I
- 1:31:18hadn't talked to them.
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: In a few years. But if you're friends with a
- 1:31:23lot of people, sometimes you can't be communicating with everybody
- 1:31:27all the time. There's friends that I'm friends with. If
- 1:31:30I see them, I'm going to hug them. But I
- 1:31:31haven't talked to them in years.
- 1:31:32Speaker 3: You ever told someone this? You ever told someone this? Hey,
- 1:31:37you know what? Before you became really famous, we used
- 1:31:40to be really close and now we're not.
- 1:31:43Speaker 1: You ever said that? No. Okay. I have. So before,
- 1:31:49when they're famous or you're famous?
- 1:31:52Speaker 3: Joe, I've been famous a long time.
- 1:31:53Speaker 1: Long time. Long time. Yeah. Long time. Long time.
- 1:31:58Speaker 3: But I've actually, my problem is, if it's a problem.
- 1:32:03He said, when I like somebody, I really like them.
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: That's a good problem. I like being with them. Yeah.
- 1:32:10Speaker 3: And then you don't ever hear from them. But if
- 1:32:12you text them, they fire right back. And after a while,
- 1:32:17I'm going, why am I the one starting this relationship?
- 1:32:19Why am I? And I take it personal.
- 1:32:21Speaker 1: Do you really? Yeah, I do. Okay. Yeah, I do.
- 1:32:25Speaker 3: I'm sensitive about stuff like that. I mean, if we
- 1:32:29swap numbers today before I leave, And I'm going to
- 1:32:33text you and say, hey, man, how's it going? How's
- 1:32:35the wife? How's the elk hunting?
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: How are you doing?
- 1:32:38Speaker 3: Fine. And we get along great. And then two or
- 1:32:41three months go by. I hadn't heard from Joe. Hey, Joe,
- 1:32:43how are you doing? Man, it's good to see you.
- 1:32:44I mean, how are you doing?
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: Oh, so you get upset if you're the one always initiating.
- 1:32:48I don't want to always initiate. I understand.
- 1:32:49Speaker 3: I want someone else to feel the same way towards me.
- 1:32:52And that's insecurity. I just finished this book. And the
- 1:32:56whole thing is I'm always looking for people to like
- 1:32:59me as much as I like them. And that's not
- 1:33:02always the case.
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: Well, you're a very friendly guy. I am.
- 1:33:06Speaker 3: Yeah. I wish I weren't.
- 1:33:08Speaker 1: Why?
- 1:33:08Speaker 3: I don't know why.
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: It's great.
- 1:33:09Speaker 3: I like being friendly.
- 1:33:10Speaker 1: Let me tell you a funny story.
- 1:33:12Speaker 3: You want a funny story?
- 1:33:12Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:33:13Speaker 3: All right.
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: Here's a funny story.
- 1:33:14Speaker 3: So when you get diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, you get
- 1:33:16put on steroids. You get a balance of steroids in
- 1:33:20your body to find out what.
- 1:33:22Speaker 1: Holds off the pain because you've got to block the pain.
- 1:33:25Speaker 3: And so you go on a 90-day trial and error.
- 1:33:29So I do the steroids, and I'm eating my ass. Boy,
- 1:33:37I'm eating everything. I can't sleep, and I'm eating. I'm
- 1:33:41doing a good job of eating. And I'm working out
- 1:33:43twice a day.
- 1:33:44Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?
- 1:33:45Speaker 3: And I blow up, man. I put on like 60 pounds.
- 1:33:48Speaker 1: Whoa. Huge. Go to Hawaii. My wife and I are in. Kmart.
- 1:33:56Nice Kmart.
- 1:33:57Speaker 3: It's closed now, but it's a really nice Kmart. So
- 1:34:00we're in there and we're getting stuff for the house
- 1:34:02and stuff. And we get, we're going down the aisles
- 1:34:06and people are.
- 1:34:07Speaker 1: Like, hey, Terry, how you doing?
- 1:34:09Speaker 3: You know, I'm doing good. You know, I'm a little
- 1:34:11puffy right now. I'm on steroids. I put on quite
- 1:34:14a bit of weight, as you probably can see. You know,
- 1:34:17I'm a little embarrassed, but it's going to get it
- 1:34:18balanced out. Oh, yeah, sorry to hear about that.
- 1:34:21Speaker 1: Hey, Terry, how you doing?
- 1:34:22Speaker 3: Well, you know, I'm a little puffy right now and
- 1:34:25I'm on steroids. I've got rheumatoid arthritis. You have to
- 1:34:28take steroids and get your balance.
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: And I do this.
- 1:34:32Speaker 3: Without even thinking about it, Joe, three or four times
- 1:34:35in Kmart. So we walk out, get in the car.
- 1:34:39My wife, who loves me to death, says, Honey, honey, honey, listen.
- 1:34:44When people say it, How are you doing, Terry? They
- 1:34:47don't want to hear about steroid.
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: They don't want to hear about Ruben Dard.
- 1:34:51Speaker 3: They just want to hear, how are you doing? They
- 1:34:54don't care. They recognize you, and they're just happy to
- 1:34:58meet you. They don't care that you, you know, whatever.
- 1:35:01I went, am I really doing that? She said, yes, baby,
- 1:35:05you're doing that to everybody. I was so embarrassed, Joe.
- 1:35:08I'm like, oh.
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: We cross the highway and we go where? Brand new Target.
- 1:35:16Massive Target. Awesome Target.
- 1:35:19Speaker 3: You know?
- 1:35:19Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:35:20Speaker 3: Now, you don't shop at these places, but I do.
- 1:35:22Speaker 1: I shop at Target.
- 1:35:23Speaker 3: Do you?
- 1:35:24Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:35:25Speaker 3: I love Target. You go to Walmart?
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: I've been to Walmart. Been to Walmart. It's been a
- 1:35:30couple of years.
- 1:35:33Speaker 3: Well, I live in St. Joe, Texas in Walmart. We
- 1:35:36get dressed up and put a suit on when we
- 1:35:38go to Walmart. Yeah. That's nice. Anyway, so we go
- 1:35:42to Target, and my wife's daughter told me, so we
- 1:35:46go to Target.
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: I'm pushing the buggy, and we're going down the aisle. Hey, Terry,
- 1:35:52how you doing? How am I doing?
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: I said, man, you're not going to believe this, but
- 1:35:58I got rheumatoid arthritis, and I've been taking steroids, and I'm.
- 1:36:03Speaker 1: Really putting on a lot of weight. I'm really puffy.
- 1:36:05Speaker 3: Now, I stand up.
- 1:36:06Speaker 1: Joe, no kidding.
- 1:36:08Speaker 3: And I lean down. And I pull my pants leg
- 1:36:12up where my sock is. And I push my sock down.
- 1:36:15And you can see that giant indention from all the
- 1:36:18fluid that you're holding.
- 1:36:20Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:36:21Speaker 3: And when I put my hand down and I see
- 1:36:25that ring, I start laughing.
- 1:36:28Speaker 1: I couldn't help myself.
- 1:36:29Speaker 3: I just started laughing.
- 1:36:31Speaker 1: You big idiot.
- 1:36:32Speaker 3: They don't give a shit if you've got rheumatoid start.
- 1:36:37Speaker 1: I was so embarrassed, but I just couldn't help myself.
- 1:36:40Speaker 3: I just started laughing.
- 1:36:41Speaker 1: Caught me. Caught me. Well, you're just a genuine guy. Yeah,
- 1:36:45what are you going to do? There's nothing wrong with that.
- 1:36:47Speaker 3: No.
- 1:36:48Speaker 1: Nothing wrong with that. No. I'm not apologizing. Yeah.
- 1:36:52Speaker 3: But sometimes you just want reciprocation. I do have it
- 1:36:54with that.
- 1:36:54Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying.
- 1:36:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: But it's way better to be super friendly. Then the opposite.
- 1:36:59Speaker 3: Is your wife super friendly?
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: She's friendly, yeah.
- 1:37:01Speaker 3: She's friendly?
- 1:37:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:37:03Speaker 3: Is she friendly as you?
- 1:37:04Speaker 1: Yeah, she's pretty friendly, yeah.
- 1:37:07Speaker 3: Can you go anywhere in Austin and.
- 1:37:09Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, you talk to a lot of people.
- 1:37:11You don't talk to people, but most people are really nice.
- 1:37:14Speaker 3: So it's not a problem.
- 1:37:15Speaker 1: Yeah. Most people are just happy to see you and
- 1:37:17say hi.
- 1:37:17Speaker 3: Hey, how you doing?
- 1:37:18Speaker 1: Shake your hand.
- 1:37:18Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:37:19Speaker 1: Give you some knuckles. Yeah.
- 1:37:20Speaker 3: Take a selfie.
- 1:37:21Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:37:21Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:37:22Speaker 1: Take a selfie.
- 1:37:23Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: I like selfies.
- 1:37:26Speaker 3: I mean, I don't see what the problem is.
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: There's no problem. There's nothing wrong with that. You're just
- 1:37:30a friendly guy. Yeah. But that Dunbar's number is what's
- 1:37:33going on. Like, that's why you can't remember people. That's
- 1:37:36really all it is. I mean, you think about you're
- 1:37:37Terry Bradshaw. How many people have you met in your life?
- 1:37:40You've probably met a million people, like literally a million people.
- 1:37:43Speaker 3: But if you were in bad shape right now, you've
- 1:37:48got people you'd call. You've got a handful you could call.
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, for sure. Yeah.
- 1:37:53Speaker 3: Really care about you?
- 1:37:54Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:37:54Speaker 1: Yeah. But that's how everybody is, like a handful. You
- 1:37:57have a handful that you really care about. And you
- 1:37:59know what?
- 1:38:02Speaker 3: To take care and nurture your friendships that are really
- 1:38:04close– It takes effort.
- 1:38:06Speaker 1: It does.
- 1:38:07Speaker 3: And if you're 15 or 20, you don't have any time, man.
- 1:38:10You wear yourself out. I think we all– we start
- 1:38:14here and we– Yes.
- 1:38:16Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, there's also some people that disappoint you along
- 1:38:19the way, unfortunately. Man, love.
- 1:38:21Speaker 3: Are you kidding?
- 1:38:22Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:38:22Speaker 3: That is– have you ever– have you ever just thrown
- 1:38:27all your trust and love into your buddy and then
- 1:38:32that sucker 15 or 16, whatever, and just boom.
- 1:38:35Speaker 1: Some of them.
- 1:38:36Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: Whoa. It's been a long time since I've had that happen.
- 1:38:39But there's some people that just don't make it along
- 1:38:41the way.
- 1:38:42Speaker 3: And then and then I'm the first one to say,
- 1:38:44I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't I didn't mean that.
- 1:38:47Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
- 1:38:47Speaker 3: I'm sorry. And then they don't take.
- 1:38:49Speaker 1: Your apologies and they bring it up again.
- 1:38:52Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Look, I told you. I'm sorry. Then they
- 1:38:56do it again.
- 1:38:57Speaker 1: Look.
- 1:38:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:38:59Speaker 1: I said I'm sorry.
- 1:39:01Speaker 3: And then hang up. That's it.
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: Well, some people just don't want to be happy. They don't.
- 1:39:07And they actually enjoy being in conflict because conflict takes
- 1:39:13them away from thinking about all the things that they
- 1:39:15need to correct in their life. So they always like
- 1:39:17to be in some sort of a situation where there's
- 1:39:20some sort of a dispute or someone wronged them or
- 1:39:23something's disrespectful or something. It's just distractions. Most of it
- 1:39:28is distractions. It's a personality flaw.
- 1:39:30Speaker 3: This just happened yesterday.
- 1:39:32Speaker 1: Did it?
- 1:39:33Speaker 3: I'm not going to mention their name because they're— Okay.
- 1:39:36So I tell this person, they had a stallion of mine,
- 1:39:40a young two-year-old, and they were showing it and they
- 1:39:42did a great job. I brought the horse home. The
- 1:39:45horse wasn't— Horse wasn't going to be good enough to
- 1:39:48go to the World Show, which is the Super Bowl,
- 1:39:51but he needed another year of growing and training. So
- 1:39:55I brought him home. Crazy about these people. Been with them.
- 1:40:00Speaker 1: Years.
- 1:40:01Speaker 3: I mean, the trainer was my first trainer ever, and
- 1:40:06that's been 40-something years ago. Anyway, so I'm over there.
- 1:40:11They came to church. I got them to come to church.
- 1:40:12I was singing in church the last two weeks ago,
- 1:40:14and they came. I asked them, come, I'm singing in church.
- 1:40:17And they said, okay, great. So they came to hear
- 1:40:19me sing. They loved our preacher. And they said, we're
- 1:40:21going to come back. Well, they came back yesterday. All right?
- 1:40:25Speaker 1: They came back yesterday.
- 1:40:27Speaker 3: We have a meet and greet during the service. I
- 1:40:28got up. I went, oh, man, it's great to see you.
- 1:40:32And not even thinking that they had had this stud
- 1:40:37for so long and did a great job. I said,
- 1:40:40guess who came by the house the other day and
- 1:40:41saw the barn name for the stud is Bradley. And
- 1:40:44Saul Bradley fell in love with him. And I sent
- 1:40:47him home with him. He's going to show him. Oh, Bob,
- 1:40:52it wasn't pretty. Got mad. Got real in church. Got mad.
- 1:40:57Got upset. And I just cold chills went over my mind.
- 1:41:01And I got to thinking, what did I do?
- 1:41:03Speaker 1: What did I do? What did I do?
- 1:41:04Speaker 3: And then I got to thinking. I took this horse
- 1:41:07from them and I gave it to another trainer. And
- 1:41:09they got this horse looking as good as he is.
- 1:41:11They got him going. Now I'm giving it to a
- 1:41:14competitive trainer, and I'm telling him, hey, yeah, he fell
- 1:41:17in love with him. I said, here, take him.
- 1:41:19Speaker 1: Home with you. It hurt them.
- 1:41:24Speaker 3: And it was obvious that they were very— one of them
- 1:41:28was really upset with me in church. And so the
- 1:41:31preacher's up getting restarted, and I had to go get
- 1:41:33back in my seat. And then one of them, I
- 1:41:34told Tammy, my wife, I said, holy cow, man, I
- 1:41:38just hurt their feelings. I mean, they are upset with
- 1:41:40me because I sent this horse with some other trainer.
- 1:41:43And I said, God, I would have never done that.
- 1:41:45I would have never done that. Had I been thinking,
- 1:41:48I wouldn't have said a word about that. Not a word.
- 1:41:51But since they had had the horse, I figured it
- 1:41:53was no big deal, right?
- 1:41:54Speaker 1: My horse.
- 1:41:55Speaker 3: I do with it what I want. Throughout the service,
- 1:41:59which was a great, great service. I was picking up
- 1:42:03on what the preacher was saying. I found myself during
- 1:42:06that service.
- 1:42:07Speaker 1: You ready for this?
- 1:42:08Speaker 3: Praying that God would help me go make things right
- 1:42:11with them. Because I couldn't stand the fact that I
- 1:42:16had upset them so much. So when the service was
- 1:42:18over and they were going, I went and grabbed them
- 1:42:21and said, I am so sorry. I want to apologize.
- 1:42:24I wasn't thinking. I made a huge mistake. You're my
- 1:42:28dear friends. I just don't, you know, and I feel
- 1:42:31like I made it right, but I had to go.
- 1:42:34And make that right because it just killed me.
- 1:42:37Speaker 1: But that's great, Terry. That means you're a good guy.
- 1:42:39That's great.
- 1:42:40Speaker 3: I hope so.
- 1:42:41Speaker 1: Yeah, no, you're a great guy. That's a great thing
- 1:42:43to do because you care. If you didn't care, if
- 1:42:46you were like, ah, screw them. What's wrong with them? Oh,
- 1:42:48I ruined my service. That's because you're a good guy.
- 1:42:50And I drive a long way to go to church.
- 1:42:52That's because you're a good guy. That's because you're a
- 1:42:54good guy. I really believe that. You wanted them to
- 1:42:57feel better. Absolutely. And I bet you did make it right.
- 1:43:00And I didn't do it. You didn't do it on purpose?
- 1:43:02It wasn't exactly. Of course. Of course. Well, sometimes people
- 1:43:05don't think. You know, I mean, some people. You ever
- 1:43:09done that?
- 1:43:09Speaker 3: You ever gone to someone and say, hey, I went
- 1:43:12to a guy and told him a hundred thousand times
- 1:43:14how sorry I was. And I want you to know
- 1:43:16he was my best friend at the time. And we
- 1:43:18have not spoken since. That's now.
- 1:43:21Speaker 1: Some people are not that kind. That's not on me. No,
- 1:43:25that's on him.
- 1:43:25Speaker 3: That's on him.
- 1:43:26Speaker 1: Some people are not charitable and they don't want to
- 1:43:28forgive people. They'd like to be wronged. There's people that
- 1:43:31like to be in conflict with people. And generally those people,
- 1:43:34their life is a mess. That's generally not a balanced person.
- 1:43:38Speaker 3: Man, this guy's life's not a mess, but I just— Well, why?
- 1:43:40Speaker 1: Is it so touching?
- 1:43:41Speaker 3: Look, if you tell— look, let's say you say something here
- 1:43:43today and it really upsets me. You're probably going to
- 1:43:46know it now that we've been getting— and you're probably saying, hey,
- 1:43:50are you okay with this? And I'm going to tell you,
- 1:43:53you know, no, I'm not. I'm not okay with that.
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: Well, then I would apologize.
- 1:43:59Speaker 3: That's what I'm– that's my point.
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: And if you said something that pissed me off, I
- 1:44:02think if you apologized, I'd accept it immediately too.
- 1:44:05Speaker 3: But you've already said I'm a good guy. I'm not
- 1:44:06going to do that.
- 1:44:08Speaker 1: People don't mean to hurt people's feelings for the most part.
- 1:44:11Speaker 3: Some do.
- 1:44:11Speaker 1: Some people do. But those people you generally know that
- 1:44:14that's that kind of person in the first place and
- 1:44:16you probably wouldn't be hanging out with them.
- 1:44:18Speaker 3: No.
- 1:44:19Speaker 1: But when you're close to someone, you love someone, you
- 1:44:21got to have some forgiveness. You got to realize that
- 1:44:24people are human.
- 1:44:25Speaker 3: And humans make mistakes. When you've been friends for as
- 1:44:26long as I have been with this one person, I
- 1:44:30had another person.
- 1:44:31Speaker 1: What was the issue?
- 1:44:32Speaker 3: Issue was I made fun of him on the golf course.
- 1:44:35Speaker 1: That's it?
- 1:44:35Speaker 3: Yeah. I make fun of everybody on the golf course.
- 1:44:38You know why? Because I suck.
- 1:44:42Speaker 1: I'm bad, Joe. I'm bad.
- 1:44:44Speaker 3: Now, I love to play, and I love to play
- 1:44:46with my friends and have a simple.
- 1:44:47Speaker 1: Little $ 5.
- 1:44:49Speaker 3: Bet, and it's not much.
- 1:44:50Speaker 1: Right. But I love to say, oh, nice shot. It's fun.
- 1:44:54Speaker 3: Me.
- 1:44:55Speaker 4: Me.
- 1:44:55Speaker 1: I know I'm an asshole. Right.
- 1:44:58Speaker 3: You know the bad side of you, right? Mm-hmm.
- 1:45:00Speaker 1: You know your bad side. I know mine. I know mine. Yeah.
- 1:45:04My wife calls it Roy.
- 1:45:05Speaker 3: Roy.
- 1:45:06Speaker 1: Oh, you have a different guy inside of you?
- 1:45:07Speaker 3: What is that movie?
- 1:45:09Speaker 1: True Grit? Primal Fear. Oh, okay.
- 1:45:17Speaker 3: You need to look at me at the end. You go,
- 1:45:19had me fooled. You go, holy cow. So I took
- 1:45:23on the name Roy. So when I'm going into a
- 1:45:26dark area.
- 1:45:26Speaker 1: Edward Norton's character?
- 1:45:27Speaker 3: Yes.
- 1:45:27Speaker 1: Was it Roy?
- 1:45:28Speaker 3: Yes. I think it was Roy.
- 1:45:30Speaker 1: That movie was great.
- 1:45:31Speaker 3: Oh.
- 1:45:31Speaker 1: That turn at the end. Oh, did it have you fooled?
- 1:45:35I was like, what? I know.
- 1:45:38Speaker 3: At the end of that movie, I'm like, whoa.
- 1:45:42Speaker 1: That's another very smart guy. Edward Norton, I had him
- 1:45:45in on the podcast. Very interesting guy. I find actors
- 1:45:50in general very... They're really good ones.
- 1:45:54Speaker 3: They are.
- 1:45:56Speaker 1: Cooper, I love.
- 1:45:58Speaker 3: McConaughey, I've done a movie I love.
- 1:45:59Speaker 1: He's great. Great guy, too. Who else do I?
- 1:46:04Speaker 3: George Foreman.
- 1:46:04Speaker 1: Also very smart.
- 1:46:05Speaker 3: Yeah, very smart. George Foreman, we did a show together
- 1:46:08called Better Late Than Never. Never got to know him
- 1:46:12in two years. Never got to know him in two years.
- 1:46:14Speaker 1: Really?
- 1:46:15Speaker 3: Never got to know him in two years.
- 1:46:16Speaker 1: How come?
- 1:46:16Speaker 3: He totally didn't associate with any of us.
- 1:46:19Speaker 1: We had lunch.
- 1:46:19Speaker 3: He'd sit over here with his son.
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: Had dinner.
- 1:46:21Speaker 3: He'd sit over here with his son.
- 1:46:24Speaker 1: It could be.
- 1:46:25Speaker 3: I would only guess that he's shy. He didn't like
- 1:46:28the fact that we drank.
- 1:46:30Speaker 1: Oh.
- 1:46:30Speaker 3: He didn't like the language that was used.
- 1:46:32Speaker 1: Because he's a preacher. Right.
- 1:46:34Speaker 3: And I asked him one time, I said, George, how
- 1:46:36big is your congregation? He said, 120.
- 1:46:39Speaker 1: I said, really? How long have you been doing this?
- 1:46:40Speaker 3: I think he said something, maybe 20 years or something.
- 1:46:43I said, because I've been taught as a Baptist and
- 1:46:45as a preacher, your congregation grows, right?
- 1:46:48Speaker 1: Right, right.
- 1:46:49Speaker 3: Right. Your congregation grows. And I said, so how many? 120.
- 1:46:54Speaker 1: I said. oh, wow, it's small.
- 1:46:57Speaker 3: I said, you're building, you're growing. He said, no, 120
- 1:47:00is enough. And I went, 120 is enough? I said,
- 1:47:05so George, when do you start preparing your sermon? Do
- 1:47:09you start on Tuesday like most preachers? No.
- 1:47:12Speaker 1: Oh, you don't?
- 1:47:13Speaker 3: So when do you start preparing for your sermons? Wednesday?
- 1:47:16Speaker 4: No.
- 1:47:19Speaker 3: So when do you start preparing for your sermon? He says,
- 1:47:22when I stand up to preach, God tells me what
- 1:47:25to say.
- 1:47:26Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:47:27Speaker 3: Okay. You're going to argue with George Foreman. I'm not.
- 1:47:30But that was like, all right, brother.
- 1:47:35Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not arguing.
- 1:47:36Speaker 3: But yeah, he was, I wanted to get to know him.
- 1:47:38He was friendly, but he was just.
- 1:47:42Speaker 1: It was blocked. Yeah.
- 1:47:43Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:47:44Speaker 1: Well, he's also another guy that's been famous for a
- 1:47:46long time. A long time. He's probably figured out how
- 1:47:49to block people out. And also he went through that
- 1:47:51dark period when he quit fighting for 10 years and.
- 1:47:55You know, the losing to Ali, I mean, that was
- 1:47:57very hard on him, you know?
- 1:47:59Speaker 3: He knew better when he lost to Thrill in Manila.
- 1:48:03Speaker 1: He knew better. It was Rumble in the Jungle. Oh, okay. Well,
- 1:48:07they both rhyme, right? They definitely rhyme. Well, that was
- 1:48:11Don King, right?
- 1:48:12Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah.
- 1:48:13Speaker 1: He knew how to promote a fight. But he knew better.
- 1:48:16Speaker 3: He told me that the hit that I took was nothing.
- 1:48:23But he said I was so tired.
- 1:48:26Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:48:28Speaker 3: And I went, you're kidding. He said, yeah.
- 1:48:30Speaker 1: He said the hit was nothing. Nothing.
- 1:48:33Speaker 3: But he went down. He just, thank God I'm down.
- 1:48:36I can get some air and get some breath. Yeah.
- 1:48:38Speaker 1: He was definitely exhausted.
- 1:48:39Speaker 2: Oh.
- 1:48:40Speaker 1: That was a strategy.
- 1:48:40Speaker 3: But he knew better. He knew what was going on.
- 1:48:43But he thought with his power, he'd break a rib or.
- 1:48:47Speaker 1: Something, you know. Well, he had so much power.
- 1:48:50Speaker 4: Oh.
- 1:48:50Speaker 1: I mean, when he fought Joe Frazier, he lifted him
- 1:48:52off his feet with a punch. I mean, he was
- 1:48:55extraordinarily powerful. Quick. He hit so hard. Yeah, George was—
- 1:48:59How can you be that quick?
- 1:49:00Speaker 3: I mean, that big.
- 1:49:03Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, that's his job.
- 1:49:05Speaker 3: Impressive, man.
- 1:49:06Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, he was very impressive.
- 1:49:07Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:49:08Speaker 1: I mean, that Ali fight was so crazy. That was
- 1:49:11another fight where Ali was expected to lose, just like
- 1:49:13the Sonny Liston fight.
- 1:49:14Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:49:15Speaker 1: And it was such an upset that Hunter Thompson flew
- 1:49:18to Africa to cover it and didn't go to the fight.
- 1:49:21He wound up just drinking and floating around in his
- 1:49:24pool and blew off the fight because he didn't want
- 1:49:26to watch Ali get knocked out. Really? Because Ali was
- 1:49:29his hero. And he messed it up because he was
- 1:49:32supposed to be a journalist for Rolling Stone at the time.
- 1:49:34So they flew him over there to cover that fight.
- 1:49:37Speaker 3: See, You threw out your intelligence on me, throwing me
- 1:49:41a curveball. Because I'm going, Hunter, okay, yeah, okay.
- 1:49:46Speaker 1: Who's Hunter? I had no idea who that guy was.
- 1:49:49You don't know who Hunter S. Thompson is?
- 1:49:51Speaker 3: Why would I know him?
- 1:49:52Speaker 1: You never heard of him? The gonzo journalist, Hunter S. Thompson?
- 1:49:55Speaker 3: No, no.
- 1:49:56Speaker 1: The very famous journalist.
- 1:49:57Speaker 3: Is he in the Quarter Horse Journal? No.
- 1:50:00Speaker 1: The Angus Weekly? No. No. He's the guy from Fear
- 1:50:04and Loathing in Las Vegas. Do you know that? You
- 1:50:06never heard of that book? The movie that Johnny Depp did,
- 1:50:09Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, where he played Hunter Thompson.
- 1:50:11Speaker 4: He did write that about horses.
- 1:50:13Speaker 1: The Kentucky Derby is decadent and depraved. That's one of
- 1:50:15his best works. Really? It's a fantastic story. Hey, listen.
- 1:50:18That's Hunter Thompson. He was a maniac.
- 1:50:20Speaker 3: When I first got into the cattle business, my wife, ex-wife,
- 1:50:24and I went to a big cattle sale. To your
- 1:50:27point about me saying, I don't know who he is. Now,
- 1:50:29I just played it off.
- 1:50:31Speaker 1: All right?
- 1:50:32Speaker 3: I didn't want to embarrass myself. But then I got
- 1:50:34to thinking, I don't know who this guy is. Now,
- 1:50:36you answered who he was, but I didn't care.
- 1:50:38Speaker 1: I get it. So I go to this cattle sale.
- 1:50:41Speaker 3: This auctioneer is out there, and he wants to meet me,
- 1:50:44Terry Bradshaw. So I got my ex-wife there, the auctioneer,
- 1:50:47and a couple of his ring stewards. And we're sitting
- 1:50:50there talking. So I asked a simple question.
- 1:50:52Speaker 1: So tell me, Mr. Auctioneer, what do you make.
- 1:50:55Speaker 3: The most money on in auctioning off stuff? He goes, Terry,
- 1:51:01we're really hitting a home run right now with limousines.
- 1:51:05Speaker 1: Limousines.
- 1:51:07Speaker 3: Now, see, my brain, I'm at a cow auction.
- 1:51:09Speaker 1: Right. And he's.
- 1:51:12Speaker 3: A cow auctioneer.
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:51:13Speaker 3: He's not supposed to sell cars.
- 1:51:15Speaker 1: Right. Cars. When you think cars, limousines. That's what I
- 1:51:19would have thought. That's what I would have thought.
- 1:51:22Speaker 3: I was about to say to him, oh, my God,
- 1:51:25you mean to tell me you sell cars? And my
- 1:51:29ex-wife goes, you mean to tell me that you sell cars?
- 1:51:34And he goes, oh, sweetie. And I'm like, this is
- 1:51:39the funnest.
- 1:51:39Speaker 1: Shit here, boy.
- 1:51:40Speaker 3: That's hilarious. What a dumbass. And he goes, no, honey,
- 1:51:46limousine is a breed of cattle.
- 1:51:49Speaker 1: Oh, that's a limousine cattle. There you go. There's a
- 1:51:51limousine right there.
- 1:51:53Speaker 3: You know what I like about this show? What? When
- 1:51:55you just think you're throwing everybody a curveball, they throw
- 1:51:57it up on the screen.
- 1:51:58Speaker 1: That's Jamie. Jamie, you're amazing, man. He's the best.
- 1:52:01Speaker 3: When he's sober, he is numb better. Serious.
- 1:52:04Speaker 1: When he's sober?
- 1:52:05Speaker 3: When he's sober.
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: You should see him when he's drunk. Oh, my God.
- 1:52:07He's even better.
- 1:52:08Speaker 3: But anyway, I thought, you know, I should write a
- 1:52:11book about some of this stuff.
- 1:52:13Speaker 1: You should. I should. Why not? I don't know.
- 1:52:16Speaker 3: I think I've got enough time.
- 1:52:18Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe a documentary. Maybe just sit down with someone
- 1:52:21and have them tell all these stories.
- 1:52:23Speaker 3: You're thinking nobody would care about these stories.
- 1:52:25Speaker 1: Sure they would. Absolutely. Edit them up. Do a good
- 1:52:28job with the editing.
- 1:52:29Speaker 3: Should I start a podcast?
- 1:52:31Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I don't think so. Terry Bradshaw experience?
- 1:52:33Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. No. You know what? Joe, listen.
- 1:52:38You started this 15 years ago or something?
- 1:52:40Speaker 1: Something like that, yeah. Do you have any idea it
- 1:52:42would be like this?
- 1:52:43Speaker 3: No. No. So why do I want to do something
- 1:52:46like this when there's a million podcasts going on?
- 1:52:49Speaker 1: Well, you would only do it if you like doing it.
- 1:52:52Speaker 3: I would not like doing it.
- 1:52:53Speaker 1: Well, then don't do it. I don't want to. Look,
- 1:52:56I got enough on my plate right now. Don't do
- 1:52:58it unless it seems interesting to you. Besides that, who's
- 1:53:01going to come on my show? A lot of people
- 1:53:03would come on the Terry Bradshaw show.
- 1:53:04Speaker 3: No, I don't think so.
- 1:53:05Speaker 1: I came on your show when you had a TV show.
- 1:53:07Did you? Yeah. What show was that? Remember you had
- 1:53:09a TV show? Yeah. Yeah, I was on it. I
- 1:53:11was a guest. When I had the Fox show? Whatever
- 1:53:15that talk show thing you did was. Get out. Yeah.
- 1:53:18Speaker 3: You were one of my star guests?
- 1:53:20Speaker 1: I was a guest when I was on news radio.
- 1:53:23That was a sitcom.
- 1:53:25Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:53:26Speaker 1: Oh, well. I believe it was news radio. It was
- 1:53:28a long time ago. Oh, I remember. No, you don't. No,
- 1:53:31you don't. Oh, no, no, Joe. Yeah. You were great,
- 1:53:34by the way. I loved you, man. You were great.
- 1:53:37We talked about limousine cattle.
- 1:53:38Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. Yeah.
- 1:53:40Speaker 1: Hunter Thompson. What are you drinking?
- 1:53:42Speaker 3: Oh, you're drinking coffee now.
- 1:53:43Speaker 1: It was a hoot.
- 1:53:44Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. That was a fun show.
- 1:53:47Speaker 1: I don't remember you. But you could do something like
- 1:53:50that if you wanted to. I mean, you could do
- 1:53:52anything if you wanted to. But you definitely would get
- 1:53:54guests if you ever wanted to do a podcast.
- 1:53:56Speaker 3: I did a radio show once.
- 1:53:58Speaker 1: How was that? It was good. It was good, but
- 1:54:00it was just hard to get people. Really? Yeah. That
- 1:54:04doesn't make sense to me. I will. Where were you
- 1:54:06doing it out of?
- 1:54:07Speaker 4: L.A.
- 1:54:08Speaker 1: Oh, so many people in L.A.
- 1:54:09Speaker 3: How is that hard to get people? When I had
- 1:54:10my daytime show in L.A., I couldn't get anybody.
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: Really? I got Whoopi Goldberg. One time. But you laughed
- 1:54:19and farted. How was she? Was she fun? Yeah, she
- 1:54:22was a blast. Yeah, she was.
- 1:54:24Speaker 3: She was the biggest thing we.
- 1:54:26Speaker 1: Ever had on this show. She's probably fun when she's
- 1:54:27not on The View.
- 1:54:28Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:54:28Speaker 3: I don't know about The View.
- 1:54:30Speaker 1: All those hands get together. I watched that show. I'm like, ladies,
- 1:54:38go outside. Hug a tree.
- 1:54:41Speaker 3: I had Whoopi. I had Charlton Heston. Now you're talking...
- 1:54:46How was he?
- 1:54:47Speaker 1: Fabulous. Yeah? I couldn't.
- 1:54:50Speaker 3: The show, I could have done three hours. I was
- 1:54:53just fascinated. He was so nice. You know, is there
- 1:54:57anything worse, Joe, than thinking you, and that's my understanding,
- 1:55:02you won't bring people on here that you don't feel
- 1:55:05comfortable with.
- 1:55:06Speaker 1: No, if I'm not interested in talking to them.
- 1:55:08Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm very honored to be here today. But
- 1:55:11can you imagine? Can you imagine? Can you imagine? Having
- 1:55:16people on.
- 1:55:17Speaker 1: That are just jerks. Yeah. Or interviewing them. And it's like, oh, God.
- 1:55:25Speaker 3: Where can I go here to get something out of
- 1:55:27this interview? You know?
- 1:55:29Speaker 1: It's just, God. It's just.
- 1:55:32Speaker 3: But, yeah. But Charlton Heston. I had Garth Brooks, which
- 1:55:36was fabulous. I gave Charlton Heston the whole hour. Just
- 1:55:40me and him. It was great.
- 1:55:42Speaker 1: That's awesome.
- 1:55:42Speaker 3: Kind of like this.
- 1:55:43Speaker 1: He was amazing.
- 1:55:44Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:55:45Speaker 1: He was like one of the first big actors that
- 1:55:47was like publicly conservative. Remember he was like, he did
- 1:55:51the NRA.
- 1:55:51Speaker 3: They caught hell for that.
- 1:55:53Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. Was he the head of the NRA at
- 1:55:55one point? No, no, no. It was a part of
- 1:55:57the NRA. Part of it. I think he did something
- 1:55:59with the NRA.
- 1:55:59Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:56:00Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:56:00Speaker 3: But he was, yeah, he was huge.
- 1:56:03Speaker 1: He famously was like, you can have my gun when
- 1:56:05you pry my cold dead fingers from it.
- 1:56:08Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm, My brother has I don't know how
- 1:56:12many guns.
- 1:56:12Speaker 1: I said, what do you do with all those guns? Man,
- 1:56:14you got to have guns.
- 1:56:15Speaker 3: I said, Gary, he's got those rifles that shoot 5,000
- 1:56:22rounds in 10 seconds.
- 1:56:23Speaker 1: What are those things called? AR-15.
- 1:56:27Speaker 3: He's got five or six. I said, what do you
- 1:56:29do with all those guns?
- 1:56:30Speaker 1: Yeah, you never know when you're going to need a gun.
- 1:56:33There's a lot of people like that in this country. Oh,
- 1:56:34my God, they are.
- 1:56:36Speaker 3: And I got a— I got a bunch of guns,
- 1:56:42but everybody gives me guns.
- 1:56:44Speaker 1: I don't shoot guns. You don't shoot guns at all?
- 1:56:46Speaker 3: No.
- 1:56:47Speaker 1: No? No.
- 1:56:48Speaker 3: My wife only let me put a gun by the bed.
- 1:56:50I've been burglarized six times.
- 1:56:54Speaker 1: Have you really?
- 1:56:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:56:55Speaker 1: Where do you live?
- 1:56:56Speaker 3: I got shot at with a shotgun.
- 1:56:57Speaker 1: This is how I can tell you that when you
- 1:57:00get shot at with a shotgun, flames come out of
- 1:57:03the gun.
- 1:57:05Speaker 3: Flames. And I'm running in the backyard to get in
- 1:57:09my car. And this guy goes around the backside. Boom.
- 1:57:13Speaker 1: Where was this? Flames. And BBs. And I get in
- 1:57:18the old GTO, 1970 GTO. Nice car. Yellow and black. Oh, man.
- 1:57:25Get her done. Yeah, boy. This is nice. And I
- 1:57:28got in.
- 1:57:29Speaker 3: But.
- 1:57:30Speaker 1: I'm used to pushing the button or in reverse, you
- 1:57:33go down, right? I pull it down. I turn around.
- 1:57:36I hit the brake.
- 1:57:36Speaker 3: I go forward right in through the wall.
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: Realized you got to go one click. Yeah, it was
- 1:57:42not good. Not good.
- 1:57:44Speaker 3: But my wife won't let me keep anything.
- 1:57:46Speaker 1: So where did you get burglarized six times? Ruston. Ruston, Louisiana. Mansfield,
- 1:57:52Louisiana on my ranches.
- 1:57:54Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:57:54Speaker 1: On your ranches? Yeah. So they came onto the ranch.
- 1:57:57Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:57:57Speaker 1: How big was the ranch? 400 acres at the time. Oh,
- 1:58:01so they had to do some driving to get to
- 1:58:02the house.
- 1:58:03Speaker 3: And they had to go through the gate.
- 1:58:06Speaker 1: The gate I locked.
- 1:58:08Speaker 3: So how did they get in? Let me tell you something.
- 1:58:11You were laying in bed at night and it's 1 a.m.
- 1:58:13in the morning and you feel the presence of somebody
- 1:58:18else in your house. And a flashlight is going over
- 1:58:23your head and going.
- 1:58:25Speaker 1: Through the wall like this.
- 1:58:28Speaker 3: You I can't even begin to tell you.
- 1:58:32Speaker 1: You can't breathe.
- 1:58:33Speaker 3: And you don't. And I'm laying down like this and
- 1:58:35I'm flattening myself. And back in those days, you're too
- 1:58:38young to know this. Remember, well, the princess phone. You
- 1:58:43know what the princess phone is?
- 1:58:44Speaker 1: Princess phone?
- 1:58:45Speaker 3: You know, everything we've been talking about today. You've been
- 1:58:47throwing all kind of shit up here. And you don't
- 1:58:49know what a princess phone.
- 1:58:51Speaker 1: Are you saying prince phone? Princess. Princess. Princess phone. It's
- 1:58:56a phone.
- 1:58:56Speaker 3: It was one of the first push button phones.
- 1:58:59Speaker 1: Phones. You didn't have to. Okay.
- 1:59:01Speaker 3: It's printed.
- 1:59:02Speaker 1: So I took my look at you. It does. That's
- 1:59:08a princess phone. There you go. Thank you so much.
- 1:59:11Did you know what that is, Jamie? No. Look, look, look, Joe,
- 1:59:16I'm laying in bed.
- 1:59:17Speaker 3: I take my left hand and I slide it over
- 1:59:21to my princess phone. I take the receiver off and
- 1:59:24I take my fingers and I go across the dials.
- 1:59:27And I dial, and my uncle, who lives 200 yards away,
- 1:59:33I get the phone.
- 1:59:34Speaker 1: Pull up to the microphone so people can hear you.
- 1:59:37Speaker 3: I pull the phone up. I'm laying back, trying so
- 1:59:39he can't see me or anything. And I said, Bobby,
- 1:59:42I got a burglar. He's at my bedroom window. He says,
- 1:59:46all right, I'm on my way. So I take the
- 1:59:49phone down. And you can see the guy hears my
- 1:59:54uncle coming. And this guy takes off. And he chases
- 1:59:57him down through the pasture and he loses him out
- 1:59:59through there. I had another guy go through my house
- 2:00:04tearing up my kitchen.
- 2:00:05Speaker 1: Same place? No, different place.
- 2:00:07Speaker 3: Wow. In college, tearing up my dishes in my kitchen.
- 2:00:13Speaker 1: He was looking through the dishes? He was making noise.
- 2:00:17Speaker 3: The only thing I could figure was the guy was
- 2:00:19trying to run me off. I was living in a
- 2:00:22Methodist parsonage out on the edge of town. Come to
- 2:00:25find out, this guy was living in the attic over
- 2:00:28the office. So the cops found all kind of paraphernalia,
- 2:00:33cans of food, beer, up in the office. So the
- 2:00:36only thing I can figure is Sean Ryan, but he
- 2:00:38ran me off.
- 2:00:39Speaker 1: Or he might have just been drugged up. I'm out
- 2:00:40of there.
- 2:00:41Speaker 3: I don't know what he was.
- 2:00:41Speaker 1: He might have been on drugs.
- 2:00:45Speaker 3: I've come home twice and had guys running out of
- 2:00:48my house, taking off.
- 2:00:50Speaker 1: Same house? Yeah. Yeah. Six. Six of these I had.
- 2:00:55Speaker 3: Jeez. You ever been shot at?
- 2:00:57Speaker 1: So you were running away from these guys. What's his
- 2:01:00name again? I forgot. Jamie. Jamie. Young Jamie.
- 2:01:03Speaker 3: One more time, son. I'm going to ask you what
- 2:01:05your name is.
- 2:01:06Speaker 1: Okay. All right. One more. I told you three times, right?
- 2:01:10All right.
- 2:01:10Speaker 3: I got you down now.
- 2:01:11Speaker 1: So the same place. Why'd you keep getting broken into
- 2:01:14this one place? I'm not in the middle of nowhere.
- 2:01:17Speaker 3: I'm Terry Bradshaw. They want to come in. Another guy
- 2:01:20came down. He stole all my stuff out of my garage,
- 2:01:24all the chainsaw. He got all the kind of tools
- 2:01:31and stuff that he could go and sell.
- 2:01:34Speaker 1: Just wipe me out. No security? No. No security system? Nothing?
- 2:01:40Speaker 3: No. I got dogs now. And now I've had... Since
- 2:01:45Tammy and I, 22 years now, and I got a
- 2:01:50guard dog. But I will not leave my wife at home.

- 2:01:57two days. I will not leave without my wife.
- 2:02:00Speaker 1: What kind of guard dog did you get?
- 2:02:01Speaker 3: German Shepherd. I got him from Wayne Samanovich in South Carolina.
- 2:02:04Speaker 1: Okay, so you got a trained dog.

- 2:02:08I bought him, I got a female this year. Her
- 2:02:11name is, we named her after the Viking character. Freya.
- 2:02:17Freya the queen.
- 2:02:18Speaker 1: Freya.
- 2:02:18Speaker 3: So I'm going to read those because I'm tired of
- 2:02:21spending $ 20, 000 for it. So I'm going to raise my
- 2:02:24guard dog.
- 2:02:25Speaker 1: Nice. Nice.
- 2:02:27Speaker 3: And you know what's great about them? They're guard dogs.
- 2:02:30You don't play with them.
- 2:02:30Speaker 1: Right. You don't play with them. You don't rough them.
- 2:02:33You don't grab them. You don't tackle them. They do work.
- 2:02:37Speaker 3: They don't mess around.
- 2:02:38Speaker 1: Right.
- 2:02:38Speaker 3: They don't mess around. They're serious. Yeah.
- 2:02:40Speaker 1: They're serious.

- 2:02:42Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. You got a dog? Yeah. What do you got?
- 2:02:45I have a golden retriever.
- 2:02:47Speaker 3: I love them.
- 2:02:48Speaker 1: They're great. But he ain't guarding shit.
- 2:02:50Speaker 3: No, I know.
- 2:02:50Speaker 1: Hey, y'all, come on in. There's ice cream up there.
- 2:02:53Speaker 3: If y'all open it, we'll share it.
- 2:02:55Speaker 1: He'll let everybody in. And I have another dog. I've
- 2:02:57got eight dachshunds. I have another dog that's a King
- 2:03:01Charles Cavalier. Do you know what those are, the little
- 2:03:03tiny dogs?
- 2:03:04Speaker 3: Yeah, I do.
- 2:03:04Speaker 1: Oh, my God. He's so adorable.
- 2:03:05Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:03:06Speaker 1: He jumps in the pool, and he's just started. He's
- 2:03:09a year old, and he started swimming over the last
- 2:03:12couple months, and he gets so excited that he whines
- 2:03:15like you think he's in pain or something. He's talking.
- 2:03:20He's talking to you. Yeah, and he just can't wait
- 2:03:22to jump in the water. Really? Oh, he loves it.
- 2:03:25Speaker 3: Two of my dachshunds talk constantly.
- 2:03:28Speaker 1: Oh, really?
- 2:03:28Speaker 3: Oh, and this morning, I'm a little tired today because
- 2:03:32for some reason, these two, they sleep with me every night.
- 2:03:36Their names are Sadie Lynn and Baby Girl. One's a
- 2:03:40black miniature dachshund. The other one is an Australian shepherd
- 2:03:44looking black and tan, you know, spotty. Oh, they are precious.
- 2:03:49But baby girl likes to.
- 2:03:50Speaker 1: Get on my chest.
- 2:03:51Speaker 3: When she's got to go outside, she gets on my chest,
- 2:03:53puts her chin right.
- 2:03:55Speaker 1: Under my mouth.
- 2:04:00Speaker 3: And I wake up. And I know exactly what it is.
- 2:04:02And I sit there and I go, what time is it?
- 2:04:06And I'll go over and I'll get the TV control
- 2:04:10and I'll shake it so the light will come on. Oh,
- 2:04:15my God, it's 11 o'clock. You've got to be kidding me.
- 2:04:17So I'll take them outside, and they'll go potty.
- 2:04:19Speaker 1: This is good. Once normally, a lot of times never,
- 2:04:23but once max.
- 2:04:25Speaker 3: Last night, three times.
- 2:04:27Speaker 1: Three times. Oh, yeah, 1.30, 1.30. Oh, what? You've got
- 2:04:33to pee again? You've got to be kidding me. So
- 2:04:36I slide to the right.
- 2:04:38Speaker 3: Down off the bed, these two come.
- 2:04:40Speaker 1: We go outside.
- 2:04:40Speaker 3: I'm so sleepy. I sit on the steps and put
- 2:04:45my head against the porch pole, and I'm like this.
- 2:04:50Their heads are in the doorway, and they're looking at
- 2:04:53me like, what are we doing? I'm like, you got
- 2:04:58to pee, right? No, not really.
- 2:05:03Speaker 1: So I go back at 3.30.
- 2:05:04Speaker 3: Here I go again, and they went to the bathroom.
- 2:05:07Speaker 1: But this is, you know. So sometimes they just want
- 2:05:10to wake you up. They just, yeah.
- 2:05:13Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, look, I'm a dog lover, okay?
- 2:05:15Speaker 1: Me too.
- 2:05:16Speaker 3: I got ten dogs now.
- 2:05:18Speaker 1: Do you really? Oh, yeah. So ten dogs and two
- 2:05:21serious guard dogs.
- 2:05:22Speaker 3: Two badass dogs.
- 2:05:23Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the one guard dog is badass.
- 2:05:26Speaker 3: The other one is going to be badass. Yeah. And
- 2:05:29you know what? When you live where I live, out
- 2:05:31where I live, I don't know where you live, but.
- 2:05:33Speaker 1: What are you doing? What is that? This is Ultra.
- 2:05:36It's nootropic. Do you know what that is?
- 2:05:38Speaker 3: No.
- 2:05:38Speaker 1: It's essentially brain vitamins.
- 2:05:42Speaker 3: How come you don't swallow it?
- 2:05:43Speaker 1: Because it's a pouch. Oh. Like a nicotine pouch, same
- 2:05:47kind of thing.
- 2:05:47Speaker 3: Oh, so it's like you've got a smoking addiction.
- 2:05:50Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's not.
- 2:05:51Speaker 3: You've got a nicotine addiction?
- 2:05:52Speaker 1: Is that what you're saying? This is not nicotine. What
- 2:05:53is it?
- 2:05:54Speaker 3: You said nicotine.
- 2:05:54Speaker 1: No, it's nootropics. Nootropics.
- 2:05:56Speaker 3: Is that one of those things that you're into now?
- 2:05:58Speaker 1: It's like brain vitamins.
- 2:06:00Speaker 3: Is it like ivermectin?
- 2:06:01Speaker 1: No, it's like nutrients. Brain nutrients. I don't know.
- 2:06:06Speaker 3: Sorry.
- 2:06:07Speaker 1: It sucks that you have to have that. I couldn't
- 2:06:08help myself. Listen, we're not friends anymore. Yes, we are.
- 2:06:11I'm upset with you now. You'll probably have me back
- 2:06:13on again. Isn't that hilarious, though, that you could make
- 2:06:16fun of a guy playing golf and he doesn't want
- 2:06:18to be your friend forever because of that?
- 2:06:22Speaker 3: I was shocked.
- 2:06:23Speaker 1: Yeah, you got off light. I had another friend. You
- 2:06:25got off light. Yeah, I had another friend. That's a sensitive.
- 2:06:28Speaker 3: Another friend I spent four days a week with because,
- 2:06:30like I said, I'm playing golf and didn't have a job.
- 2:06:33Speaker 1: We hung out.
- 2:06:34Speaker 3: His wife and I went to dinner all the time,
- 2:06:37cooked out all the time. And then one day, I said, hey.
- 2:06:42We just recently passed away. I said, hey, man. I
- 2:06:46got us a tea time for more at 1.30. Call
- 2:06:49me back.
- 2:06:49Speaker 1: Nothing.
- 2:06:50Speaker 3: Hey.
- 2:06:52Speaker 1: Nothing. Two days, three days, four days, five days, a.
- 2:06:55Speaker 3: Week, two weeks, a month. Nothing, nothing, nothing. Never heard
- 2:07:00from him again.
- 2:07:01Speaker 1: What happened?
- 2:07:03Speaker 3: His wife didn't like me.
- 2:07:04Speaker 1: Whoa. That's what I found out. His wife didn't like you.
- 2:07:08Speaker 3: Yeah. What's not to like? I'm a nice guy.
- 2:07:10Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't understand that at all.
- 2:07:11Speaker 3: Yeah, I think she's just jealous of our relationship.
- 2:07:16Speaker 1: Oh, there's those kind of relationships. Guys and gals will
- 2:07:19do that. Will they separate you from your friends? That's
- 2:07:22a real fucking problem. That's a giant red flag right there.
- 2:07:26That's not good. A person who doesn't want you having
- 2:07:29good friends, that's crazy.
- 2:07:31Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
- 2:07:32Speaker 1: That's crazy.
- 2:07:33Speaker 3: You know, I'm the luckiest guy in the world because
- 2:07:35I work for a network with four, sometimes five guys.
- 2:07:43And if you can put five big egos together and
- 2:07:46have everybody love and care about one another, I'm going
- 2:07:49to tell you that's special.
- 2:07:50Speaker 1: That is special.
- 2:07:51Speaker 3: That Fox show is so special. It is. You've seen
- 2:07:57this show, I assume.
- 2:07:59Speaker 1: Yes.
- 2:08:00Speaker 3: We're just like a locker room.
- 2:08:02Speaker 1: Well, that's how it's supposed to be. And we had
- 2:08:04so much fun. Yeah, and that's what people like watching, too.
- 2:08:07I think so. I think you're right. A hundred percent.
- 2:08:09Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:08:09Speaker 1: People want to watch people that actually are friends. Yeah.
- 2:08:11That's giant. And we have fun.
- 2:08:13Speaker 3: We had this one. I mean, you learn where you
- 2:08:16can go with your friends. Yeah. Yeah.
- 2:08:19Speaker 1: All right.
- 2:08:19Speaker 3: You know, you learn.
- 2:08:20Speaker 1: Don't go here. Don't go there. Which is fine.
- 2:08:22Speaker 3: You want you want to make sure that because we're
- 2:08:24on live television.
- 2:08:26Speaker 1: So you want to.
- 2:08:27Speaker 3: Don't ever want to embarrass anybody on live television. So
- 2:08:29you learn where to go and you build that trust.
- 2:08:33And then that trust, because you have the trust, you
- 2:08:35become you bond, become.
- 2:08:37Speaker 1: Hey, how you doing?
- 2:08:38Speaker 3: Hey, man, I was this week.
- 2:08:39Speaker 1: How's your daughter? It's great. Hey, how's your wife? Great.
- 2:08:43I mean, it's just.
- 2:08:44Speaker 3: Everybody hugs everybody.
- 2:08:46Speaker 1: Hey, how was your week? I mean, I can't even begin.
- 2:08:49Speaker 3: The day that that show is over for me, and
- 2:08:51I hope I die on set, which is I've always said,
- 2:08:54if I could just die on set. Think about it, Joe.
- 2:08:57Think about it. If I die on set.
- 2:09:00Speaker 1: Seriously?
- 2:09:01Speaker 3: If I could just get a couple words out before
- 2:09:04I go.
- 2:09:05Speaker 1: A good one. I don't want to just... It's one
- 2:09:10last good line. I really do think Dallas.
- 2:09:13Speaker 3: It's going to win the Super Bowl. If I could
- 2:09:16just get something out.
- 2:09:17Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:09:18Speaker 3: Forever.
- 2:09:19Speaker 1: Immortal, right? Right. Ah, great. Yeah.
- 2:09:22Speaker 3: So I said, and that's the way I feel. I
- 2:09:26assume that's the way you do this show. You can't
- 2:09:28wait to do it. You should. This is awesome to
- 2:09:30get down and sit down with people from different walks
- 2:09:34of life, basically.
- 2:09:35Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:09:36Speaker 3: Politicians don't agree with you, religious people, whatever, and just
- 2:09:41sit there and you build this You know, you get
- 2:09:44to know these people. You ask all these questions, or
- 2:09:47in my case, I'm just jumping around here. That's what
- 2:09:50I do. Well, he hadn't asked me about this.
- 2:09:53Speaker 1: I like a jump around. Is it Simon? Jamie. Jamie!
- 2:09:56I told you, Jamie.
- 2:09:57Speaker 3: That's it.
- 2:09:58Speaker 1: No, I got it. Young Jamie. Think of it like
- 2:10:01Van Halen. Jamie's crying. Whoa, whoa, whoa, Jamie's crying. Remember
- 2:10:06that song?
- 2:10:06Speaker 3: Look, I got it here. Jamie.

- 2:10:21Speaker 1: What's old enough? Old enough to know. So how old
- 2:10:24are you, Jamie? 43.

- 2:10:38Speaker 1: Sure.
- 2:10:39Speaker 3: All right.
- 2:10:43Speaker 1: There's a lot of good-looking women in Austin, Texas, Jamie.
- 2:10:45There is. It's a good place. You need some help.
- 2:10:48You need me to put a good word in for you, bub?
- 2:10:50Speaker 4: Let's go out tonight.
- 2:10:54Speaker 3: I guess we need to move on, right?
- 2:10:56Speaker 1: Yeah, let's move on.
- 2:10:57Speaker 3: But anyway, I'm so— in talking about that show, it just.
- 2:11:00Speaker 1: Well, having a show like that where a bunch of
- 2:11:02people are really actually friends is so huge for the viewer.
- 2:11:06It is.
- 2:11:08Speaker 3: Listen, do you want to turn on a show like pregame?
- 2:11:11Come on, pregame shows. Right.
- 2:11:12Speaker 1: I watch them. I go, oh, God. Especially if it's stiff.
- 2:11:15Shut up! Right. Shut up! Announcers, guys doing games. Shut
- 2:11:21the up.
- 2:11:22Speaker 3: Right.
- 2:11:23Speaker 1: Or when they're just sports guys that really aren't actually
- 2:11:26passionate about football.
- 2:11:27Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:11:28Speaker 1: And you hear them talking, and you're like, what are
- 2:11:29they talking about?
- 2:11:30Speaker 3: You know what they're talking about?
- 2:11:31Speaker 1: Stats.
- 2:11:31Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:11:32Speaker 1: They get it all right here.
- 2:11:34Speaker 3: Yeah. And let me tell you something. Yeah. I hate stats.
- 2:11:39Speaker 1: I hate them. They're okay occasionally, but they shouldn't be.
- 2:11:42Speaker 3: If they make a real point.
- 2:11:44Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:11:45Speaker 3: But if all you got is, well, it's the 50th,
- 2:11:47and I'm third quarter, and the wind's blowing out of
- 2:11:49the southwest. Yes. Yeah.
- 2:11:51Speaker 1: If it makes a.
- 2:11:52Speaker 3: Point in a big, but otherwise.
- 2:11:55Speaker 1: Right, right, right.
- 2:11:56Speaker 3: I remember once, well, anyway, I was talking about all
- 2:11:59the guys, and I love telling this story on Howie.
- 2:12:03Howie is my best friend on the show, without question.
- 2:12:07I mean, we are so different. He went to Villanova.
- 2:12:11I went to an engineering school at Louisiana Tech. I
- 2:12:15got a college degree. Howie, I'm sorry, he didn't graduate.
- 2:12:20Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Howie.
- 2:12:22Speaker 3: Don't hate me for it. It's big ass. What are
- 2:12:24you talking about?
- 2:12:25Speaker 1: Hey, I love you. I shouldn't have said, Joe, I
- 2:12:28didn't say that.
- 2:12:29Speaker 3: Anyway, so we're doing this show. And we had Jimmy
- 2:12:34Johnson on the show. Jimmy's great. Oh, Jimmy was awesome.
- 2:12:39So Jimmy's telling this story.
- 2:12:41Speaker 1: All right.
- 2:12:43Speaker 3: And Jimmy's Jimmy.
- 2:12:44Speaker 1: It's a funny story.
- 2:12:46Speaker 3: And Jimmy starts laughing. We all start laughing.
- 2:12:50Speaker 1: Strahan.
- 2:12:53Speaker 3: We're belly aching.
- 2:12:54Speaker 1: That's funny. That's funny, Jimmy.
- 2:12:56Speaker 3: Michael Strahan's next. The director, we got it all worked out.
- 2:13:00It goes Jimmy, Michael, Terry, Howie.
- 2:13:02Speaker 1: Jimmy, Howie. Yeah, Howie. So Michael Strahan, he adds to
- 2:13:07that story, and it's even funnier. Oh, my God, stop.
- 2:13:15Stop right now. Now it's my turn. Now I've got to, you're.
- 2:13:22Speaker 3: A comedian, you know, you've got to match it at least, right?
- 2:13:26Speaker 1: Or do it one better.
- 2:13:28Speaker 3: I'm adding to what Michael said, to what Jimmy said,
- 2:13:31and we're rolling.
- 2:13:32Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Oh, God, stop. Oh, this is killing me.
- 2:13:38Speaker 3: Howie's turn. Howie looks at the camera. The outside linebacker
- 2:13:45for Seattle, Bucky Buckhalter, sprang his ankle in pregame warmup.
- 2:13:51He won't be starting today for the Seahawks. Jasper Julian
- 2:13:58will be in his place out of Kansas State. What?
- 2:14:10And we go to commercial break.
- 2:14:12Speaker 1: And I'm like, three, ha, ha, ha.
- 2:14:16Speaker 3: One, oh. So I'm looking at Howie. And I'm staring
- 2:14:21at Howie. I'm just like this. He turns, he feels me.
- 2:14:25He turns around and says, what? I said, you can't
- 2:14:31help it, can you?
- 2:14:32Speaker 1: Help what?
- 2:14:34Speaker 3: You know what I'm talking about. No, I don't. What
- 2:14:36are you talking about?
- 2:14:36Speaker 1: And I said, what? You're boring.
- 2:14:45Speaker 3: I wouldn't have said it if I didn't know I
- 2:14:47could get away with it.
- 2:14:48Speaker 1: Right.
- 2:14:48Speaker 3: And for the rest of the show, he was hilarious
- 2:14:51because he said.
- 2:14:51Speaker 1: Well, you know, being boring, let me say. And it
- 2:14:55was funny. But yeah, it was.
- 2:14:57Speaker 3: You can't do that. Unless there's trust.
- 2:15:00Speaker 1: Right, right, right.
- 2:15:01Speaker 3: And Strahan, the first day Strahan was on the show,
- 2:15:04we gave him half a cake. He said, why am
- 2:15:07I getting half a cake? Well, you just got divorced.
- 2:15:09You lost the other half.
- 2:15:11Speaker 1: That's hilarious. Well, if you can't joke around with people,
- 2:15:15that's no fun.
- 2:15:16Speaker 3: No.
- 2:15:17Speaker 1: That's not a good relationship.
- 2:15:19Speaker 3: Well, you better know who you're joking around with.
- 2:15:21Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's like if you can't joke around with someone,
- 2:15:23like what's the point? That's what people do. It's part
- 2:15:26of fun in life. You should be able to take
- 2:15:28a joke. You should be able to give a joke.
- 2:15:29You should be able to have fun.
- 2:15:30Speaker 3: With each other. You just got to know when.
- 2:15:33Speaker 1: Sure.
- 2:15:33Speaker 3: I mean, friends know when.
- 2:15:35Speaker 1: Sure.
- 2:15:36Speaker 3: I mean, I talk to Howie all the time, all
- 2:15:39the time, and his son Kyle just got– Signed with
- 2:15:43CBS for their Today show, which is.
- 2:15:45Speaker 1: Oh, that's awesome.
- 2:15:46Speaker 3: Great. Great for him.
- 2:15:48Speaker 1: And he's good. Howie did movies for a while, right?
- 2:15:50Speaker 3: Howie was voted the up-and-coming star. And he had these
- 2:15:54three young kids. And he says, I don't want to
- 2:15:56raise my kids in L.A. Where's the best place I
- 2:15:59can raise my kids? And they found a school system, Charlottesville, Virginia.
- 2:16:03He moved to Virginia and took his kid there and
- 2:16:05quit doing movies.
- 2:16:05Speaker 1: Good for him.
- 2:16:07Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:16:07Speaker 3: That's having your priorities together.
- 2:16:09Speaker 1: I remember reading something about him talking about it, like
- 2:16:11his experience with movies. Like he didn't like it. Well,
- 2:16:14he didn't like Hollywood. He didn't like the whole thing.
- 2:16:18Speaker 3: He could have been– Didn't.
- 2:16:21Speaker 1: Someone hit on him too? Hit on him? I think
- 2:16:24some guys hit on him. A guy hit on him?
- 2:16:27Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:16:27Speaker 1: Is that true? He did– Find out if that's true.
- 2:16:30Speaker 3: I don't know if I'd find that out.
- 2:16:31Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe don't look that up. Forget it. Don't look
- 2:16:34that up. But the point being— Hey, look. Simon. I
- 2:16:38mean— Jamie.
- 2:16:39Speaker 3: Jamie.
- 2:16:40Speaker 1: Simon, that's your new name, bro. I don't think Jamie.
- 2:16:45Don't look that up. Yeah, don't look it up. I
- 2:16:47think I might have made that up. Or somebody might
- 2:16:48have told me. It might not be true. But the
- 2:16:50point is, like, he— He could have been— He did
- 2:16:52a bunch of big movies. Yes. And he was on
- 2:16:55his way to being a big action star.
- 2:16:56Speaker 3: He was. Action star. Yeah.
- 2:16:58Speaker 4: For sure.
- 2:16:58Speaker 1: I mean, of course, giant guy. Yeah. Handsome.
- 2:17:01Speaker 3: Good looking guy.
- 2:17:01Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:17:02Speaker 1: Great body. Perfect for an action star.
- 2:17:04Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:17:04Speaker 1: And then just, I like it when a guy realizes
- 2:17:07like this is, you know, life is short.
- 2:17:08Speaker 3: He didn't want to raise nine kids in LA.
- 2:17:10Speaker 1: Also, it's just like, you don't want to, you know,
- 2:17:12it's what, what you think that life is. It's not. Listen,
- 2:17:16it's also like 16 hours a day.
- 2:17:18Speaker 3: I've done five movies and you've done, I don't know
- 2:17:19how many. And look, I don't want to sit around. Yeah.
- 2:17:24All day long and go and deliver one line.
- 2:17:26Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 2:17:27Speaker 3: And here's the other thing. I'm not ever going to
- 2:17:31be a leading man. I'm always going to be Terry Bracho.
- 2:17:35Speaker 1: Right, right.
- 2:17:35Speaker 3: And that just sucks.
- 2:17:38Speaker 1: Seriously.
- 2:17:39Speaker 3: You always want to be Joe Rogan.
- 2:17:41Speaker 1: No.
- 2:17:42Speaker 3: No. No. You would like to be given an opportunity
- 2:17:44to really act.
- 2:17:45Speaker 1: Well, if I actually wanted to act, yes. Well, yeah, but. But,
- 2:17:49I mean, some people. they just don't like to do it.
- 2:17:51And I think with Howie, it was probably one of
- 2:17:54those things where they probably offered him a bunch of money.
- 2:17:57It looks good on paper. And then you start actually
- 2:17:59doing it and you realize, like, you're going to be
- 2:18:01away for five months filming this thing.
- 2:18:03Speaker 3: He was away all year, one year, doing.
- 2:18:07Speaker 1: Firestorm. Mm-hmm.
- 2:18:09Speaker 3: And he was filming in Vancouver. He was flying in
- 2:18:12on Saturday from Vancouver and leaving on a red-eye to
- 2:18:16Vancouver and filming all week.
- 2:18:19Speaker 1: And I think— Breaks you down. Three little kids. Yeah,
- 2:18:23it breaks you down.
- 2:18:24Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:18:24Speaker 1: It's not good for you.
- 2:18:25Speaker 4: No.
- 2:18:25Speaker 1: You don't like it. It doesn't feel good.
- 2:18:27Speaker 3: And I applaud him for that. And not only is
- 2:18:30he a great husband, great dad— He's a great grandfather.
- 2:18:35I'm a terrible grandfather. You got grandkids? No.
- 2:18:38Speaker 1: Why are you terrible?
- 2:18:39Speaker 3: You know, I just, I'm gone all the time. And
- 2:18:46it's kind of like getting that job. Yeah.
- 2:18:48Speaker 1: I got to have a job. I got to go
- 2:18:50put a suit on. If you have to travel, you
- 2:18:52were saying that you give corporate speeches. Right. What do
- 2:18:54you do? What are those about? Speeches. Like what do
- 2:18:57you speak about?
- 2:18:58Speaker 3: Well, I'm talking to a bank Wednesday morning. So I'm
- 2:19:03preparing a bank speech.
- 2:19:06Speaker 1: What do you say to a bank, to a bunch
- 2:19:10of bankers? I know what– Is it about leadership? I know. Yeah,
- 2:19:16some of it's about leadership.
- 2:19:18Speaker 3: It's about– it's basically all the things that I know, Joe,
- 2:19:23have to do with ambition, dreams, drive, goals, failure, overcoming failure.
- 2:19:32how to deal with failure, how to rise, how to
- 2:19:35deal with success, how to treat people. So it's a
- 2:19:37little bit of motivational, a little bit of psychology like
- 2:19:41you used early with me.
- 2:19:43Speaker 1: When did I use psychology with you?
- 2:19:45Speaker 3: You know when you did it.
- 2:19:47Speaker 1: You know. Right? Hey, Bernie.
- 2:19:50Speaker 3: Bernie.
- 2:19:50Speaker 1: He knows. And so you do different ones for different
- 2:19:57kind of corporations. It's kind of a lot. Yeah. So
- 2:19:59it's kind of like a team building thing. They get
- 2:20:01together and you give speeches. Depends on what they want. Interesting.
- 2:20:04When did you start doing that?
- 2:20:06Speaker 3: I've been doing it 43 years.
- 2:20:09Speaker 1: Really? Wow.
- 2:20:11Speaker 3: I know. It's amazing.
- 2:20:12Speaker 1: That's crazy. And how did you get into that? I
- 2:20:15gave a.
- 2:20:15Speaker 3: Speech in Destin, Florida for Frito-Lay. And it was taped.
- 2:20:23And they paid me $ 5, 000. And I was doing speeches
- 2:20:26for $ 1, 200, $ 850. And they offered me 5,000 bucks.
- 2:20:33Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?
- 2:20:34Speaker 3: I go down there, and it's for Frito-Lay, so I
- 2:20:37build this speech up, and da-da-da-da-da. And they go give
- 2:20:40this speech, and the speech is really good. And they
- 2:20:43taped it, and they sent me a VHS copy. And
- 2:20:48my then-wife put it on one day and thought, oh
- 2:20:51my God, this is really good, and it's funny. So
- 2:20:54she found out where where the bureaus were.
- 2:20:58Speaker 1: Who books speakers? There were 10 really good ones.
- 2:21:02Speaker 3: And she sent this tape and a bio to 10
- 2:21:06different speaking associations.
- 2:21:09Speaker 1: All right?
- 2:21:10Speaker 3: We got that through Fran Tarkenden's company in Atlanta, Georgia.
- 2:21:13They're the ones that turned us on to it. So
- 2:21:16I come in, she says, I sent this off. I'm
- 2:21:19getting calls now for speeches.
- 2:21:22Speaker 1: I'm like, what?
- 2:21:23Speaker 3: She says, yeah, she says, we got, You want to
- 2:21:26do this? You want to do that?
- 2:21:27Speaker 1: And all of them were for $ 5, 000. $ 5, 000? Are you
- 2:21:30shitting me?
- 2:21:31Speaker 3: I'm getting $ 5, 000?
- 2:21:34Speaker 1: $ 5, 000?
- 2:21:34Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, my God.
- 2:21:37Speaker 1: $ 5, 000? Really? I'm like, amazing.
- 2:21:42Speaker 3: So I started doing these speeches for all these different
- 2:21:44bureaus for $ 5, 000. Wow. So I go to Hawaii on vacation.
- 2:21:50And I'm in Hawaii in a company called Washington Speakers Bureau, WSB.
- 2:21:53Speaker 1: They speak nothing. They book.
- 2:21:56Speaker 3: Political speakers, and they had Joe Theismann and Jim Valvano
- 2:22:03and maybe.
- 2:22:04Speaker 1: Lou Holtz, the three guys they had.
- 2:22:07Speaker 3: So they call it the rainy day file, and they
- 2:22:10got a big box where they get all the, you know,
- 2:22:12people send them to them all the time. Hey, Joe,
- 2:22:15we want to come on your show. Okay, put it

- 2:22:16Speaker 1: Put it over there. And eventually you go through it. Oh,
- 2:22:19we ought to have them on, right?
- 2:22:20Speaker 3: That's kind of how it went.
- 2:22:21Speaker 1: So one day they're.
- 2:22:22Speaker 3: Looking at these tapes and they're going, I don't know,
- 2:22:24spitting it, spitting it. Then they came.
- 2:22:27Speaker 1: Across Terry Bradshaw.
- 2:22:28Speaker 3: Hey, hey, I hear this guy's pretty good. Really, we'll
- 2:22:34put it on. They put it on. They went, we
- 2:22:36want to sign him.
- 2:22:37Speaker 1: So I'm in Hawaii.
- 2:22:39Speaker 3: I get a phone call.
- 2:22:39Speaker 1: It's in the morning. Hello.
- 2:22:42Speaker 3: This is Bernie Swain with Washington Speakers Bureau. I'm here
- 2:22:45with Harry Rhodes. We just looked at your tape. We
- 2:22:48think you've got great possibilities. We'd love to represent you exclusively.
- 2:22:52Speaker 1: Da-da-da-da-da. Please call us back. I thought, what?
- 2:22:59Speaker 3: So, you know, it's Hawaii. It's, what, 7 in the morning?
- 2:23:02So it's what? It's 1 o'clock there at times. I
- 2:23:06call them. And they said, look, we think you've got
- 2:23:10great possibility. And we think we can book you and
- 2:23:14book you a lot. And I said, well, I'm being
- 2:23:18booked by 10 people right now. Why would I want
- 2:23:20to go one, one person?
- 2:23:22Speaker 1: Well, we're going to.
- 2:23:23Speaker 3: Guarantee you 50 speeches is $ 7, 500 a speech.
- 2:23:29Speaker 1: Excuse me?
- 2:23:31Speaker 3: Did you say $ 7, 500? I'm like, holy cow. So they said,
- 2:23:38we'll fly you from Hawaii to Washington, D.C., and we'd
- 2:23:42like to sit down with you and go over a proposal.
- 2:23:44So they did, and I did. We sat down, fell
- 2:23:48in love with these guys. They were awesome. Gave me
- 2:23:51a proposal, 50 speeches, $ 7, 500. Add that up. That's a
- 2:23:55pretty good chunk of dough. So I signed.
- 2:23:58Speaker 1: I'm with them exclusively now.
- 2:24:00Speaker 3: And they said, we'll have you at $ 10, 000 in six months. $ 10, 000?
- 2:24:05You're going to book me for $ 10, 000?
- 2:24:07Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? That's crazy.
- 2:24:11Speaker 3: Sure enough.
- 2:24:13Speaker 1: So that's how you got into speeches.
- 2:24:14Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:24:15Speaker 1: So when you do speeches, like say of like a
- 2:24:18tire company, whatever it is, do you write it out
- 2:24:22for that company? I never write it. I do not
- 2:24:25write a word.
- 2:24:27Speaker 3: I cannot write. I write here. So how do you.
- 2:24:31Speaker 1: Plan out a speech?
- 2:24:33Speaker 3: I write here.
- 2:24:34Speaker 1: You just sit around and think about what you're going
- 2:24:36to say.
- 2:24:37Speaker 3: Exactly. And over time, what speakers do, because I asked
- 2:24:40Jay Leno this one time. hey, you're doing 100 stand-ups.
- 2:24:45And he says, well, I'll take a theme for this year,
- 2:24:47and I do it. I don't change anything other than
- 2:24:50the name where I'm going. And so I'm like, oh.
- 2:24:54So I don't have to change all of this every time.
- 2:24:56And I learned that from Jay Leno. Takes the same
- 2:24:59thing and then put tire company in there and build
- 2:25:02it around that. And what else I started doing? I
- 2:25:06started reading a lot.
- 2:25:09Speaker 1: Psychology, salesmanship.
- 2:25:12Speaker 3: Leadership um you know one of the guys i that
- 2:25:16came to hear me speak here in austin mcraven admiral mcraven.
- 2:25:22Speaker 1: Oh okay have you had him on yet no.
- 2:25:24Speaker 3: Oh my god the guy that gives the 10 points
- 2:25:27of success.
- 2:25:29Speaker 1: Yeah i've seen those speeches texas oh yeah.
- 2:25:31Speaker 3: Amazing fat the um osama bin laden That's his.
- 2:25:38Speaker 1: That's his raid. The whole thing was him.
- 2:25:41Speaker 3: He designed that whole raid. Amazing human being. He's right
- 2:25:45here in your backyard. You haven't had him. You ought
- 2:25:47to be ashamed of yourself, Joe.
- 2:25:49Speaker 1: There's only so many days in a week you could
- 2:25:50do shows, you know? Can't have everybody on. Okay, man.
- 2:25:53Speaker 3: Do you do a show every day?
- 2:25:55Speaker 1: Four days a week. Okay, what's the day off? Usually Friday,
- 2:25:58but it shifts. It shifts depending on, you know, what
- 2:26:03I got going on.
- 2:26:03Speaker 3: But, you know, so I am.
- 2:26:08I build a show according to what they're doing. And
- 2:26:12through all my reading, and I'm naturally, I think I'm
- 2:26:17gifted enough humor-wise that I've incorporated a ton of humor.
- 2:26:22And I mix the humor in. And I incorporate the audience.
- 2:26:27Speaker 1: And so did you start doing all this reading just
- 2:26:30to make your speeches better?
- 2:26:31Speaker 3: I wanted to get smarter.
- 2:26:32Speaker 1: That's funny. I wanted to get smarter. I wanted to be.
- 2:26:36Speaker 3: Yeah, I wanted to be a little bit up on things.
- 2:26:39I took psychology and marketing and all that in college.
- 2:26:42But I thought, hey, if I'm going to make a
- 2:26:45career out of this, gather all the knowledge you can gather.
- 2:26:49And so that's what I did.
- 2:26:50Speaker 1: That's very smart.
- 2:26:51Speaker 3: I started reading all these self-help books. And you know what?
- 2:26:55When you do read all that, you find out it's
- 2:26:57pretty basic. There's a foundation, a common denominator that all
- 2:27:01of them have. I don't steal material, but I do
- 2:27:11program my speeches. I've gone on stage and forgot the
- 2:27:15name of the company.
- 2:27:16Speaker 1: I did that once. I did that once.
- 2:27:22Speaker 3: I went on stage in Vegas for a huge 5,000 people,
- 2:27:27and I went out there, and I'm You know, I've
- 2:27:29got a style about me. It's a freelance. It's, hey,
- 2:27:32you know, I work the crowd. I get to know them.
- 2:27:34I'm having a good time, feeling good. And I haven't
- 2:27:38even started my speech in the... the meeting plan to
- 2:27:41the guy that only can let's give it up give
- 2:27:43it up terry bradshaw terry but thank you terry thank
- 2:27:46you so much terry bradshaw they escort me off i
- 2:27:5010 minutes 10 minutes So there's three.
- 2:27:55Speaker 1: What happened? Why did they escort you off?
- 2:27:59Speaker 3: He thought I didn't know what I was doing, I guess.
- 2:28:03But he obviously didn't look at my tapes. But I
- 2:28:06was just having fun with the crowd before I worked
- 2:28:11my way. Sometimes I'll go right into it. Sometimes I won't.
- 2:28:16Sometimes I'll hey-hey. I mess with them.
- 2:28:18Speaker 1: Right. I'm just. Having fun. Yeah.
- 2:28:21Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:28:23Speaker 3: Out of there.
- 2:28:23Speaker 1: Wow. What kind of company was that?
- 2:28:28Speaker 3: Someone that could afford to pay me and not have
- 2:28:30me give a speech. Yeah, bad.
- 2:28:33Speaker 1: Well, some people are very impatient.
- 2:28:35Speaker 4: Bad.
- 2:28:36Speaker 1: It was bad.
- 2:28:36Speaker 3: I asked my wife in the car going to the airport.
- 2:28:38You know when you, what's wrong? And I said, what
- 2:28:40did I do? Is something wrong?
- 2:28:41Speaker 1: She said, you did nothing wrong. This guy just doesn't
- 2:28:44know your style. Oh, so they just hired you based
- 2:28:47on name alone and didn't know what they were getting.
- 2:28:49Excuse me.
- 2:28:50Speaker 3: I would imagine that for— I would think name alone
- 2:28:53has a lot to do with all my— Oh, 100%.
- 2:28:55Speaker 1: But that's what I was just going to say. I
- 2:28:57would imagine that.
- 2:28:57Speaker 3: And if you win four Super Bowls, you know pressure.
- 2:29:00You know up and down. You know how to deal
- 2:29:02with— you get in the huddle. How do you manage a huddle?
- 2:29:05How do you do this?
- 2:29:05Speaker 1: How do you call plays? And I make fun of
- 2:29:07all these guys that have placards on their forearms. Number four.
- 2:29:12Number four.
- 2:29:14Speaker 3: Where I had to go— second and eight, okay, look,
- 2:29:18second and eight, here we go, let's go, let's go,
- 2:29:21and they're like, no, no, no, wait a minute, wait
- 2:29:24a minute, no, no, I don't want to run that,
- 2:29:25let's go this, and I totally ran the, I totally
- 2:29:29ran the huddle, the whole thing, what do y'all say,
- 2:29:32can we do that, no, we can't, what do you
- 2:29:33want to do, that, I ran the huddle, I was
- 2:29:37smart enough as the chairman of the board in the
- 2:29:44huddle to say, I don't have all the answers.
- 2:29:49Speaker 1: I thought I did.
- 2:29:50Speaker 3: We're not doing very well here.
- 2:29:52Speaker 1: I'm going to try this play, but what do y'all think?
- 2:29:55Speaker 3: And I got input. Oh, is there anything better than input?
- 2:29:59Is there anything better.
- 2:30:00Speaker 1: Than the people that are doing it? As a sales team,
- 2:30:03you've got a sales manager, and the sales team is
- 2:30:05going back.
- 2:30:06Speaker 3: And saying, no, no, no, no, no, no. This is
- 2:30:08not a good idea. This isn't working. They don't like
- 2:30:10this data.
- 2:30:11Speaker 1: And you change it.
- 2:30:12Speaker 3: Smart people make adjustments in the middle of chaos.
- 2:30:16Speaker 1: Right. Competition.
- 2:30:18Speaker 3: And that's how I ran the huddle. The huddle. And
- 2:30:24speaking is... I know where I'm going when I walk
- 2:30:30on stage. And once I get on stage, I can
- 2:30:34tell within five minutes I'm going to change my direction.
- 2:30:39Speaker 1: And I can.
- 2:30:39Speaker 3: I've been doing it 40-something years. I got eight hours
- 2:30:43of material, not to mention all the new material I'm
- 2:30:46getting every week. So I can change it. And I've
- 2:30:50got to tell you, you're a stand-up comedian. Is there
- 2:30:53anything better than getting on stage and deliver a performance,
- 2:30:59and they are just laughing at everything. It's just rolling,
- 2:31:02just rolling, just rolling. And you walk off, and they're screaming, Joe, Joe, Joe.
- 2:31:08And you're like, God, man, I nailed it tonight. And
- 2:31:10then you walk off, or going out and go, did
- 2:31:13you hear this the other day? And everything falls flat.
- 2:31:18And when you leave. And you go off stage and you're,
- 2:31:22are you not miserable?
- 2:31:23Speaker 1: Miserable. Miserable. Sure.
- 2:31:25Speaker 3: You don't want to be miserable.
- 2:31:27Speaker 1: No.
- 2:31:27Speaker 3: You did everything you could to make them enjoyable. I'm
- 2:31:30entertaining them. I want this to be a great experience
- 2:31:34for them. And when you fail, it's devastating.
- 2:31:37Speaker 1: It's devastating. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So why'd they pay you?
- 2:31:42What do you think? They pay you to be entertaining.

- 2:31:48Speaker 3: Oh, Jamie. Sorry, Jay.
- 2:31:50Speaker 1: I'm sorry, man. Yeah, I mean, I would imagine that
- 2:31:53it's a completely different thing, but having a guy like
- 2:31:55you go and talk to a corporation has got to
- 2:31:59be very fun for them, you know, because, you know,
- 2:32:02your guy has won the Super Bowl.
- 2:32:05Speaker 3: My speeches are— do you know who Joe Hosting is?

- 2:32:31Speaker 3: You see the mountain. One of those good guys. It's
- 2:32:35a good guy. And people need that in their life.
- 2:32:38I like to say, there's another mountain out there. But
- 2:32:42if you continue down the path you're going, and I
- 2:32:45want my hand spanked. I don't need it spanked. I
- 2:32:49know it should be spanked, but I want him to
- 2:32:51spank me. It's fine with me.
- 2:32:53Speaker 1: Speaking.
- 2:32:55When I go out to.
- 2:32:56Speaker 3: Speak, I'm a feel-good guy. You know, unless they say
- 2:33:03to me, here's where we're struggling and we need you
- 2:33:06to add this, this, and this.
- 2:33:08Speaker 1: Oh, so sometimes they'll give you a direction? Oh, always.
- 2:33:10Speaker 3: They always give you a direction.
- 2:33:12Speaker 1: Okay, so they have like a purpose for why you're
- 2:33:13doing the speech.
- 2:33:13Speaker 3: You always know where you're going.
- 2:33:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:33:15Speaker 3: You always know what your audience is. Yeah.
- 2:33:18Speaker 1: Well, it sounds like you really enjoy it, but that's
- 2:33:19a lot. So is that what you're doing when you're
- 2:33:22doing 250 dates a year? You're doing a lot of those?
- 2:33:24Speaker 3: I do, yeah, a lot. Tuesday, Wednesday of this week,
- 2:33:29then I'll get off. I do 30 a year, which
- 2:33:32is plenty.
- 2:33:32Speaker 1: That's a lot. Yeah. Yeah, that's a lot.
- 2:33:35Speaker 3: When you're getting five million in a speech, I mean,
- 2:33:36you've got to think about it. What do you think, Buck?
- 2:33:43Speaker 1: Old Buck's over there.
- 2:33:44Speaker 3: He's like, I'd be so glad when this boy's off.

- 2:33:58Speaker 3: Been watching you. Enjoy. You're smart.
- 2:34:00Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 2:34:01Speaker 3: You're insightful. You do your homework. I helped you today, though.
- 2:34:06Speaker 1: You did. You helped me a lot.
- 2:34:08Speaker 3: Doing what you do is not easy.
- 2:34:10Speaker 1: I found out about limousine cattle. You taught me some things.
- 2:34:14Speaker 3: I know. You know how to fix a prolapsed uterus?
- 2:34:17Speaker 1: What's that? Show him, Jamie. I'd rather not. I'd rather not.
- 2:34:25So tell everybody how they buy this whiskey. Is it everywhere?
- 2:34:28Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:34:28Speaker 1: Is there a website?
- 2:34:29Speaker 3: We're in 11 states right now. You can go to TerryBradshawBourbon.com.
- 2:34:35You'll find out where we are in Texas.
- 2:34:37Speaker 1: TerryBradshawBourbon.com. There it is. Look at that. There it is.
- 2:34:41Speaker 3: That's not a good picture.
- 2:34:42Speaker 1: I should have had.
- 2:34:43Speaker 3: Oh, look at the cigar, Joe.
- 2:34:44Speaker 1: That's a solid picture.
- 2:34:45Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:34:46Speaker 1: Cigar. That's an old man. You're 58? Yeah. And look
- 2:34:49at that. You got a serious whiskey sifter there. What
- 2:34:52are those things called? Snifter?
- 2:34:54Speaker 3: Those are good.
- 2:34:54Speaker 1: That's like if you're a serious taster. You know, it is.
- 2:35:01Speaker 3: The thing about. Now, people think, boy, he's making a
- 2:35:04killing off that whiskey. I may make $ 6, 000 this year. Six.
- 2:35:07Speaker 1: Six.
- 2:35:11Speaker 3: But we're building it. It's slow. Whiskey is... Bourbon is slow, man.
- 2:35:15Speaker 1: It's hard. It has to age.
- 2:35:17Speaker 3: You go down that aisle, there's 5,000, and we've won
- 2:35:21all these awards.
- 2:35:23Speaker 1: We beat them all. That's awesome.
- 2:35:25Speaker 3: Beat them all.
- 2:35:26Speaker 1: Congratulations. Thank you.
- 2:35:27Speaker 3: I'm so proud of that. And the thing about the
- 2:35:29juice is mine. I created this juice.
- 2:35:31Speaker 1: It has to be something that you love doing. Yeah,
- 2:35:33that's not something you can... You know what? It could be.
- 2:35:38Speaker 3: Any other product, I think it's just the fact that
- 2:35:41I get to go out and sell it. I like selling.
- 2:35:43Speaker 1: Well, it's an aged product. It's a different– like if
- 2:35:45you were selling vodka or tequila, something that you could
- 2:35:48just make real quick. No, this is– It's a different thing.
- 2:35:51Aged whiskey is a very different thing.
- 2:35:52Speaker 3: It took me a year and a half to get
- 2:35:53the blend right, the blend, the juice. It took me
- 2:35:57a year and a half before I agreed to put
- 2:36:00it in a bottle. Then when I put it in
- 2:36:02a bottle, I wanted– this is old Gunsmoke. Set it
- 2:36:06on the counter. I wanted a gun smoke bottle. And
- 2:36:09this is the original label. And that's gunpowder. Gunpowder gray.
- 2:36:16And the Super Bowl stuff is put on there by,
- 2:36:19you know, the bottling company, which I didn't really. That
- 2:36:24wasn't part of it. You know, Joe, you ever got
- 2:36:26to a point in your life when you go, can
- 2:36:28I not sell something that's really good without having to
- 2:36:30be me?
- 2:36:31Speaker 1: Right. I know what you mean.
- 2:36:33Speaker 3: It wouldn't have been like that if it hadn't.
- 2:36:34Speaker 1: Been you, Terry. Right.
- 2:36:36Speaker 3: Can it not be just because it's good?
- 2:36:39Speaker 1: You certainly could do that.
- 2:36:40Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:36:40Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:36:41Speaker 3: My stud horses, I have the best stud horses in America.
- 2:36:44You know? Best. And they're breeding world champions. And I'm
- 2:36:49so proud of that. Business is good. You know? But
- 2:36:53I don't have to sell them.
- 2:36:54Speaker 1: Right.
- 2:36:55Speaker 3: We have offspring that sell them.
- 2:36:57Speaker 1: But this is Bradshaw whiskey.
- 2:36:58Speaker 3: Yeah. This is this.
- 2:36:59Speaker 1: I wouldn't want my dad to see it. There it is.
- 2:37:04There it is. There it is. All right, Terry. But
- 2:37:06thank you. Thank you.

- 2:37:10Speaker 1: And me and you. And thanks.
- 2:37:11Speaker 3: We didn't get into politics, which I'm very thankful for.
- 2:37:14Speaker 1: I'm glad, too.
- 2:37:15Speaker 3: Yeah, me, too. I bet you are. I know I am.
- 2:37:17Speaker 1: Enough.
- 2:37:17Speaker 3: Enough.
- 2:37:18Speaker 1: Enough of that in this world. Thank you, Terry.
- 2:37:20Speaker 3: That was fun.
