Someone brought a Dang live chicken to the theater and
0:05
they've been arrested and like, people are getting kicked out of
0:08
theaters over this movie and stuff.
0:10
Like who would have ever thought it's freaking Minecraft 'cause I
0:21
never thought we would talk about Minecraft on this show.
0:25
Smash burger secrets. There have been some crazy takes
0:31
about smash burgers and our stuff, which is which is fun.
0:35
The cheesy truth behind those surplus rumors.
0:39
I went down a rabbit hole somehow or another pointless,
0:43
mindless stuff. I won't share it with you, why
0:45
wouldn't I? Plus, got a bombshell at the end
0:49

1:04
I did go to this crawfish cook off stale crackers, 2 step deal,
1:11
kind of just slipped in. Wasn't sure if the weather was
1:14
going to permit me to be able to do that.
1:15
We may. There were multiple things that
1:19
we were talking about going and doing.
1:20
We ended up going to do that because Dang it, I wanted to eat
1:23
crawfish on my birthday weekend. So we did $40 all you could eat
1:29
crawfish, jambalaya gumbo. They had vendors out there.
1:33
They had all kinds of stuff. I mean, I got my barrilla Taco
1:38
from from our friends at farm and fire.
1:41
Just that thing slaps. I know some of y'all have seen
1:44
that seen the short video, but good Lord, man, they're they're
1:47
those it's, it is easily the best Taco I've ever had in my
1:52
life. Like it isn't even close.
1:54
And the seasoning that they use to do that, man, they've just
1:57
got so much going on. I can't wait to introduce more
2:01
and more of them to y'all as as we do more collaborations and
2:06
stuff like that. We've talked about things.
2:08
We're definitely, definitely going to be doing that.
2:10
But man, the crawfish were so good.
2:12
Ran into so many different people.
2:14
Rusty's our boy Rusty. He did, he just dominated once
2:19
again. Had the best booth.
2:21
I think he had second or third place gumbo.
2:23
Our friends Rach and Cajun cooking, they, they, their team
2:28
won along with KP and and her husband Sky.
2:32
Really awesome. Their crawfish were phenomenal.
2:35
That was the first ones I had 'cause they were right next to
2:37
Rusty. Just had a Dang blast, man.
2:41
So much fun. So many festivals always going
2:44
on in Louisiana. Every single weekend there's
2:47
something. There's a BYOB or, or bring your
2:51
own burger or something. I'm sorry, I know I'm butchering
2:55
it. That's going on this weekend.
2:56
Look, go, go follow our friends and I travel to boot and and
3:02
they they are on top of everything.
3:04
You can find them on Facebook, on our Facebook page.
3:07
They're on top of everything and all the events that are going on
3:10
around here locally in Louisiana.
3:12
And I know that we have a lot of people that listen outside of
3:15
Louisiana as well. So if you ever wanted to make a
3:19
trip, come down to come down here, see what's going on.
3:22
I've seen like Mike Rucker has said something in in the in our
3:27
on a Facebook post about are these accents real?
3:30
Yeah, they are. They are totally real.
3:33
It's in everything is like it's just a diverse state and always
3:37
a good time. Just always a good, good time.
3:40
So had to mention that here right at the top of the show.
3:43
So much fun go into that and and I can't wait to go again next
3:47
year. I also got asked throughout all
3:50
of this and I mentioned that in our Bubba exclusive show that'll
3:53
be dropping later on this weekend.
3:55
More to come from that. I've been asked to be a judge at
4:00
the City of Lights crawfish cook off, which is happening May
4:05
17th. So that's going to be a lot of
4:07
fun. That's going to be a lot of fun.
4:10
This whole Minecraft movie. I know that a lot of y'all have
4:13
probably not seen it and I can also say probably are not going
4:19
to see it. I I feel confident in that.
4:23
But I had the I had a blast. So it was my son's 13th birthday
4:27
and he finally got to have all his homies with him and took
4:31
them all to the theater to go see Minecraft the night that it
4:35
came out. And crazy crowd, to say the
4:40
least. Like I was not expecting that.
4:43
And I know about Minecraft. I mean, I've watched, I've
4:46
watched Riley, I've watched my daughter, I've watched him play
4:50
it over the years, but I've not, I mean, I don't know all the
4:54
little intricacies and all that's in there.
4:57
In fact, my daughter, I told her that I was going to talk about
4:59
this on the show tonight. And, and she was giving, she was
5:03
telling me some inside Iggies, if you will, about Minecraft
5:07
that didn't realize and some little Nuggets that were in this
5:09
movie #1 highly entertaining movie.
5:12
I don't care if you play Minecraft or know anything about
5:15
it or not. It is entertaining.
5:17
It is moving. Jack Black just seems to be that
5:20
guy. He's that guy.
5:22
Whenever you have that kind of movie, he's your guy.
5:25
You call him, he's going to be in it.
5:26
Jumanji, whatever, bring in Jack Black, you know it's going to
5:30
kick ass. And that, that's what that one,
5:32
it was fun. It was just a lot of fun.
5:35
He got Aquaman in there, you know, So it's it's highly
5:39
entertaining to say the least. But what I wasn't expecting to
5:44
happen while I was in there and watching this movie was people
5:47
going nuts. And that's exactly what
5:50
happened. I mean, you had kids freaking
5:52
clapping, people were yelling. There's just a ton of energy
5:58
that happened in this movie, especially in the chicken jockey
6:02
scene, which is just, I mean, people are losing their damn
6:07
minds. It beats all that I've ever seen
6:10
so much. In fact, that why I'm even
6:12
talking about this is recently someone brought a Dang live
6:17
chicken to the theater. They've been arrested and like
6:22
people are getting kicked out of theaters over this movie and
6:25
stuff. Like who would have ever thought
6:27
it's freaking Minecraft. I just think it is hilarious.
6:31
I just think it is freaking hilarious.
6:33
So anyhow, watch this clip. This is this is crazy.
6:56
I mean, seriously, I mean, Oh my goodness, that's just crazy.
7:06
That's just crazy to me. I mean, what, what the hell else
7:11
to me? What's going on in this world to
7:13
where that happens? I'm not going to lie.
7:16
I mean, we had a row of young fellas in front of us.
7:21
My daughter, it was, it was me, my wife, my daughter, and what
7:27
felt like 14 boys. But I think it was 7 or 8, maybe
7:31
9. I don't know.
7:32
It's a bunch of us. And we had basically the whole
7:35
back row. We had this whole row in front
7:37
of us. And whenever all that scene
7:39
happened, they were jumping up. It was just chaos.
7:43
It was just chaos. Yeah.
7:44
Haley says US Minecraft, US Minecraft fans can unite.
7:49
That's, that's what's happened. She loved it so much.
7:52
I mean, it was crazy. I'm telling you.
7:55
It was just something that I'm not.
7:57
I mean, I, I, there have been obviously movies that I've been
8:01
to where people start clapping. They clap at the end or, or you
8:06
know, you get the Iron Man's or the The Avengers movies and
8:11
stuff like that. Especially the last one, people
8:13
clapping, crying, laughing, stuff like that.
8:17
But I don't know, I I just don't know of a movie that I've ever
8:21
been to where people lose their damn minds like this and are
8:25
going this crazy. Now, granted, it's generally
8:28
it's a lot younger crowd than us that is typically watching this
8:34
show. So I feel like an old boomer old
8:36
man even talking about it. But how can you not talk about
8:39
that? Number one, it's trending and
8:41
it's happening all across the country.
8:43
There's going to be more copycat stuff.
8:45
I just think it's damn hilarious.
8:48
So you know a lot more, a lot more to to hopefully come from
8:53
that just craziness, craziness. I don't know if y'all have seen
8:58
this. This is something that that came
9:02
out earlier earlier today in Los Angeles.
9:06
Jillian Lauren, who's married to Scott Shriner, he's the the
9:11
basis for for Weezer. He was at home with her kids
9:15
when something when something kind of scary happened.
9:17
People were chasing people who had run away from this car
9:22
crash. And one of the people jumped
9:24
into their yard thinking there was a stranger in her damn yard.
9:28
Jillian got her legal gun to protect her family.
9:32
And then a neighbor said that Jillian might not have known the
9:35
police were there because maybe they couldn't.
9:37
She couldn't see her. But bottom line, she got shot
9:40
and they did not kill her, but she was arrested for attempted
9:45
murder amid A manhunt, A manhunt from from this suspect in in
9:51
Beverly Hills. I'll show the little news clip
9:54
here and and then I'm going to and then I'm going to read the
10:00
comments because I mean, it's a terrible thing.
10:05
She didn't die. We'll dive a little bit more
10:07
into it here in a second, but crazy is what it is.
10:11
The woman shot by Los Angeles police following a hit and run
10:15
on a freeway in the Eagle Rock. I'm David Ono.
10:17
I'm Ellen Lava. Just minutes ago, we learned
10:19
that Jillian Shriner was shot by officers during the search for
10:22
the hit and run suspects. According to police, officers
10:25
were searching a home in the neighborhood for one of the
10:27
suspects when they spotted Shriner standing in her front
10:30
yard next door armed with a gun. They claim that she ignored
10:33
commands to drop the weapon and that's when officers opened
10:35
fire. Shrina was taken to the hospital
10:37
and treated for a non life threatening gunshot wound.
10:40
We ran her address and it comes back to Jillian and Scott
10:43
Shriner. He is the basis for the band
10:45
Weezer. All right, there it is.
10:51
Yeah, crazy. But the comments, gang, let me
10:56
let me pull them over here so I can read these comments,
11:00
comments that came from this, that that is what's freaking
11:03
just the best. It's everything you would think
11:05
it would be. Of course, say it ain't so.
11:09
Oh, and we can joke a little bit about this now because she's
11:12
alive, OK? And, and hopefully it doesn't
11:17
sound like she's involved. She's a New York Times
11:20
bestseller. She's 51 years old.
11:24
Sounds like she was just protecting herself.
11:26
Things got sideways. I mean, it sounds like the
11:29
police screwed this deal up to me just from an outsider just
11:34
kind of hearing what I'm hearing it.
11:36
I don't know, man, I don't know. But Beverly Hills, that's where
11:42
I don't want to be the, I mean, every lyrical geezer comments
11:49
that are in there, every lyrical comment I could possibly think
11:53
of has already been said in this thread, said somebody.
11:58
It's just so great. It's just so great.
12:00
I mean, if you're a fan of Weezer, I love Weezer.
12:03
My boy Bob who hangs out with me a lot.
12:06
Big Weezer guy, if you want to destroy your shoulder, point
12:13
this gun as I walk away and I walk away crazy.
12:21
Total hits in April 2025. Weezer 0, LAPD one.
12:30
Oh, man, somebody else. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
12:33
wait, wait. Someone in Weezer is straight.
12:37
Tough, tough, tough, but yeah, man, yeah, man.
12:40
Terry says LAPD screwed the pooch again.
12:45
Imagine that. Imagine that.
12:48
There's no way that the Los Angeles Police Department could
12:51
ever, ever, ever, ever screw anything up, Paul says.
12:56
OMG, yeah, dude. Crazy.
12:59
That's crazy. K Dog, What's up, Bubba Army,
13:02
baby, Bubba Army. Let's freaking go.
13:06
Let's freaking go. Well moving on moving on I'll
13:12
tell you I don't know I don't know how I got in this rabbit
13:17
hole but somehow or another and I put it in my notes.
13:19
You know I've always got show notes for for doing these and
13:23
and something will hit me or I see some posts or something that
13:26
maybe I should expound on. Trust me y'all only get what I
13:30
think is the best of these insane scribblings I'll call
13:34
them but I found this interesting.
13:37
I don't know where this rabbit hole comes from, but somewhere I
13:41
heard I heard it was maybe a clip, a reel, something that
13:46
that cheese. The reason that that pizza
13:49
places like Pizza Hut and all of that really thrive is because of
13:54
the government. So all of this is from a cheesy
14:00
government strategy is what I'm getting at.
14:02
And I'm not talking about politics.
14:04
I'm literally talking about actual freaking cheese, man.
14:10
Actual cheese. the United States had so much extra cheese at one
14:15
point that they were basically stockpiling it like we were
14:19
going to war with Italy or something.
14:22
I mean, I don't know what the point was.
14:25
So this whole cheese crisis, I don't know what happened, but
14:30
subsidies gone wild, you could say back in the day, the US
14:35
government thought dairy subsidies were a great idea.
14:39
They did it with milk. If you can, some of you who are
14:42
old enough, a lot of us listen, some of you maybe not, can
14:45
remember all these milk ads. They still have milk ads with
14:48
the white mustache, part of the whole dairy deal.
14:52
That's part of it too. But the United States government
14:55
was sitting on a mountain of cheese.
14:57
Like literally over £500 million of cheese were just chilling and
15:03
storage back in the 80s and 90s. There's probably still some out
15:07
there in a cave somewhere, who knows.
15:10
But instead of just throwing all that cheese away or selling it
15:15
to mice or whatever, the USDA had a brilliant ass idea.
15:21
Here's their brilliant idea. They created the Dairy
15:24
Management, Inc, Dairy Management Inc, one of the
15:28
finest dairy establishments. Basically a secret cheese
15:33
marketing squad is what it was. And they were tasked to solve
15:39
the problem of doing what we do best in this country, convince
15:43
people to eat their way out of it.
15:45
You can eat your way out of it. Of course you can.
15:47
Of course you can. So they teamed up with the
15:50
rising pizza Kings at the time, late 70s, eighties, definitely
15:56
90s Pizza Hut, Domino's, Little Caesars, Papa John's later on,
16:02
and any of the big chains. And they dropped the cheesiest
16:06
marketing campaigns that you've ever seen.
16:09
They helped to develop new menu items.
16:12
They ran ads saying that cheese was fun and indulgent.
16:17
They could never really say it was super healthy for you.
16:19
We all know it isn't the healthiest thing, but got it and
16:23
cheese good. But they push this extra cheese
16:26
like it was some kind of a luxury product.
16:29
And that's why everything in the 90s especially came with like
16:34
triple cheese cheese stuffed or some kind of weird cheese lava
16:39
explosion. I mean, just think about it.
16:42
If you go back and you remember everything, cheese, cheese,
16:45
cheese and then more cheese and more cheese.
16:48
But you know what? It freaking worked.
16:50
Cheese consumption in the United States tripled since the 1970s.
16:56
Pizza chains exploded. We're basically living in a
16:59
cheese based economy right now. All because Uncle Sam didn't
17:05
want to throw out some cheddar in the 80s.
17:08
Isn't that crazy? So, yeah, if you ever wonder why
17:10
your pizza has six different kinds of cheese now, you know,
17:16
you can blame the government. And you could also thank them.
17:19
Because without it, we might not have stuffed crust pizza.
17:23
And that's a world I don't want to live in.
17:26
Yeah. You got to be careful with it,
17:27
though. Riley loves him some stuffed
17:29
crust pizza. He really does.
17:32
He loves that stuff. And for whatever reason, lately
17:34
I've been getting on it too. I've enjoyed the Digiorno's
17:38
stuffed crust pizza. It's so terrible for you, but
17:43
I've enjoyed it. I mean, whatever, whatever.
17:46
Terry Wayne Pizza Hut in the 80s was the bomb, dude, was it not?
17:51
Was it not? And of course, a lot of you guys
17:55
know know that Terry Wayne come from he and I went to the same
17:59
school That Pizza Hut in Manny, number one, that Pizza Hut in
18:02
Manny Louisiana is still the truth.
18:04
It's still damn good. They they have to have half of
18:08
the subsidies of this good rich cheese.
18:11
But it was even better in the 80s and the 90s and they had the
18:14
buffet and those it was it was just old school.
18:18
It was like you remember those pizza joints.
18:21
But I don't know how I learned about this or why.
18:24
I mean, I know why I found it interesting.
18:26
Somebody made a accusation. It could have been a Rogan that
18:30
the US government funded this cheese thing.
18:33
And I went, wait, what? That's no way.
18:37
No way. Yeah, yes, yes, way.
18:40
Yes, way as they say. Yes, way.
18:44
Yeah. Paul says that he did not know
18:45
that. I'd heard this stuff before, but
18:48
I never really dug into it. But it seems as if that is the
18:52
that is the truth. That is the truth.
18:54
I like cheese on pizza, but not Mac and cheese.
18:58
How the hell could you not like Mac and cheese that doesn't have
19:01
cheese on it? I think I I'm just, I'm playing
19:04
Paul. I don't think you mean it
19:05
exactly like that. Y'all.
19:07
Y'all have any Pizza Hut buffets still around?
19:10
Nick the gun guy asked. None that I know of.
19:14
I can't think of any. It's possible.
19:18
It's possible. I'm not going to lie though.
19:20
Pizza Hut, their Pizza Hut, thin and crispy.
19:24
You can put that up against any pizza that I've ever had.
19:27
And I know that there's people that, I mean, I'm an over here
19:30
playing and dabbling in the food space and people are going to be
19:34
like, what? I mean, dude, that's the first
19:37
pizza I ever had those days in the 80s and 90s.
19:40
I'm a thin. I don't like, I don't like a lot
19:43
of dough. I'll totally eat it, but it
19:46
makes me full and kind of bloated and I don't, you know, I
19:50
like thin and crispy. Now I can eat a lot more of
19:52
them. That's the problem.
19:53
So that neither one are good, but I like thin and crispy with
19:56
extra cheese. Speaking of extra cheese, they
19:59
hooked me. They got me.
20:00
I was a kid. I was one of their key
20:02
demographics. If you remember, they had that
20:05
whole book at club too, which was a lot of fun.
20:07
Your your incentive was to get a small personal pizza because you
20:11
read some books and that was fun and I always wanted to get that.
20:15
I totally, totally remember doing that.
20:17
Just the alt. Goes back to incentives that was
20:20
put into schools book. It was put into schools by the
20:24
government to give away free pizzas.
20:28
That's crazy isn't it? If you think about that.
20:31
Oh look, real southern Mama got to meet her this past weekend.
20:36
Carmen, so nice to meet you. So so nice to her.
20:39
Videos are amazing. You want some real southern
20:42
cooking? Watch her stuff.
20:43
Thin and Krispies her fave too love it I love I love it.
20:48
In fact, we had some Pizza Hut last night, which is not why I
20:51
even started talking about this, but it's just you know anyhow,
20:56
let's move on let's move on I'll tell you what's crazy people
21:00
lost their Dang mind over smash burgers.
21:03
So I've had a video that's, that's it's 8 if you would say,
21:07
you know, what's whatever the cool kids say these days.
21:11
But it, it was a it was just a quick little video that we did
21:14
one of these lives of Tigs tonight.
21:17
And I simply asked the chat because I knew I had some of the
21:21
chefs in there and all what is the best fat ratio for a smash
21:26
burger? And instead of a peaceful,
21:30
helpful group of exchanges online, people lost their damn
21:34
minds. I mean, they really have.
21:36
So apparently showing a burger that wasn't smashed enough
21:40
triggered something deep in people's souls.
21:43
And I'm not going to lie, I wonder if I did that on purpose.
21:47
Yeah, I did. I totally did it on purpose.
21:50
But yeah, I have the video. I'm sure some of y'all have seen
21:53
it. It it's just really simple.
21:56
What? What's the best fact ratio for
21:59
for Smash Burgers 8020 as Brandon?
22:03
And I did not give him credit. I feel so bad.
22:05
It wasn't that I didn't mean to give him credit.
22:07
I was just editing the video and it it didn't flow, but I should
22:09
have popped it up. Brandon was stirring the pot
22:12
podcast as the one who said that in the chat that night.
22:16
And I just was reading it back. But I knew that it could maybe.
22:19
Yeah. It's kind of helpful just to
22:21
know that. And the chat got crazy.
22:25
Let's start with some haters. F them smash burgers.
22:29
F them smash burgers. They're disgusting, he says.
22:32
Look, Ken didn't mince word, little Kenny.
22:36
I'm not going to give y'all's last names.
22:38
I'm not going to. I ain't going to do you dirty
22:39
because I know I don't want to go negative, but I got to read
22:42
some of this because it made me laugh.
22:44
Keep them coming. I think it's great.
22:46
I think it's great. Like Austin Dennis does with his
22:49
little bowls. You know, who cares?
22:51
Who cares? It's fun.
22:52
I know. Southern Southern Mama, all
22:55
y'all you understand and the comments and it's especially
22:58
with cooking. But I I got thick skin.
23:00
I can handle it. I think it's fun.
23:02
FM smash burgers, Mike says. Why did we allow these kids to
23:10
make this a thing? No one should make this horse
23:14
stuff, you know? Mike typed this with grease on
23:20
his keyboard, bro. I mean, come on, dude.
23:23
And maybe a little fury in his heart.
23:25
The top voice of reason in the whole deal is Daryl or boy
23:31
Daryl, I'll cook my meats however I want to cook my meats.
23:35
Not everyone is the same. So stop trying to get everybody
23:39
to cook burgers the same way. Not trying to get anybody to
23:43
cook burgers the same way, Daryl.
23:47
It's it's just meat, buddy. It's just meat.
23:51
Somebody needs to give this guy kettle grill 'cause he don't
23:55
like smash burgers. Here's a weirdo for you white
23:59
people. Propaganda.
24:01
That's what this is. No deadening.
24:03
I don't even know what that means, Dexter, but blink twice
24:07
if you're OK, dude, blink twice. I don't know what language this
24:11
is that you're trying to say, but it sounds like he summoned a
24:15
demon with some grill tongs or something.
24:17
I mean, this dude, this dude, here's a runner up weirdo Brent.
24:22
Brent important. So this guy's going to make fun
24:27
of the way I say important because we in the South somehow
24:32
or another, I don't know how. I don't know how to get rid of
24:35
it either. Add AD to the word important.
24:39
Important got a supporter out there, though there aren't many
24:43
in this, but a good smash burger is not a hamburger.
24:47
It's definitely a crisp little snack.
24:51
So he gets it. He gets it, and that's the whole
24:54
thing. It was smash burger.
24:56
All of this on smash burgers. I've gone entirely too long
24:59
talking about this and giving the haters some stuff, but it
25:01
made me laugh. The one argument that I can't
25:05
accept with a smash burger, there's of course, of course,
25:08
you know, there's you're, you're squeezing all of the juice out
25:12
of the burger. You're getting rid of all of
25:14
that, whatever, you know, and, and I have friends that are
25:20
complete proponents of that and they just believe, I think they
25:23
truly believe it. People say it's beef jerky, all
25:26
that. OK, if you don't like a smash
25:29
burger, I can accept the fact that you don't like the texture
25:32
of the thin, crispy patties. Not a problem with that, but the
25:37
whole you smashed all the juice out argument, that's just dumb.
25:42
I mean, I know that there's juice out there.
25:44
Most of it's water and whatever, whatever.
25:48
So we have recorded, we Jr. and I recorded our Bubba exclusive
25:53
last night, which was, if you remember and you've heard it,
25:57
it's now on our channels as well.
26:00
You can you can check it out. But last week we recorded a
26:03
show, the deconstruction of Tigs bits J Rs going to start a solo
26:10
show. We kind of made some
26:12
propositions and proposals about what we wanted to happen out
26:17
there and what was going to go on and all of that with with
26:22
Blasey. Blasey wasn't able to join us
26:24
last week. He's on the road, he's got a new
26:27
job and he's been just busy as all get out.
26:30
So anyhow, we recorded Part 2 last night that will be dropping
26:36
on Bubba here very, very soon. But I have a clip from it and
26:41
this is a little longer clip. This is a 4 minute clip.
26:44
It's a big announcement. It's pretty much the way that
26:48
we're going to be moving and the direction we'll be moving with
26:51
with all shows going forward. So we'll talk about this.
26:55
I'll let y'all absorb it. Let's talk a little bit about
26:59
the show. What's that?
27:02
About that yeah. So this show this show here the
27:05
Tigs bits. Well we talked about last week
27:07
that we were, you know kind of laid out that I was going to do
27:10
a new show Brantley Tigs wants to lean into doing more of the
27:14
the cooking aspect and the food stuff it with his content.
27:18
But we still wanted to keep Tigs bits alive here on the Bubba
27:23
network and for all of for everybody who's tuned in and
27:26
listened to this. And we import Blasey to try to
27:30
take some take the reins on that and figure out what the next
27:33
move is. And he did in one way or
27:36
another. He sidestepped us and he olayed
27:42
us and we got, we both talked to him here today.
27:46
I think I got a text. He has been slammed with work.
27:50
He's got way too much going on, probably more then he needs to
27:54
just in general much less to be trying to do the show as well.
27:57
So he's going to take a leave of absence and part ways with the
28:00
show for now and it no, we hope he's back when he's able, but he
28:06
got you as y'all heard on the show the last couple months.
28:09
He had that new job thing. He was a little worried about
28:11
this and that. I don't know how much you guys
28:13
heard because I don't know half time for recording or not.
28:15
I'm just always on, just assuming we're recording all the
28:18
time, so. Fair.
28:19
I just do. So I don't know how much you
28:22
guys know we're not, but he was. He was.
28:23
We were having to move around for his stuff and he was really
28:25
just cuz he got a new job, he was doing some training.
28:27
He didn't know about this. I was having to go here.
28:29
And I mean, we've talked to him in a couple different cities and
28:32
states the last couple weeks. He's been traveling as much as I
28:34
have. So he's just, he's just got to
28:38
take a break for now. He's got too much going on.
28:40
He's got a con, he's got the boys are all knee deep in ball
28:43
practice and stuff. And he and I get it.
28:45
So Oh yeah, he's going to take a step back.
28:48
Our workloads are more manageable for what we do right
28:52
now, so we're going to keep this show alive.
28:54
We don't know exactly what format and what all we're going
28:58
to talk about every. Week or what?
29:00
But we want some input on that. But our main goal is to churn
29:05
out quality content, talk about the things that you guys and
29:08
gals want to talk about and hear us comment on, have guests on
29:13
that have meaning that come on so you can take something away
29:16
from it, whether it's a laugh or a thought or a perspective on
29:22
something and still contribute with our brothers down in Tampa
29:27
with Seth and Lummy and Bubba and all of the knuckleheads that
29:30
that down there, because I love them so much.
29:32
They've helped us out so much. And we're we still want to
29:36
interact with them and, and get up, get get something going with
29:39
that deeper than what we have been lately, which confident we
29:44
will. I know actually I'm going to be
29:45
down there in a few weeks. So I'm hoping to catch them
29:47
there. Nice invite, see if someone will
29:50
come out the show. But but so anyway, nothing's
29:53
going to change. Like we mentioned last week, the
29:54
show's going to roll on same bat time, same bat place, and it
30:00
will morph into whatever the world let's it morph into.
30:06
Would you say that? Was a fair assessment dude, I
30:08
couldn't. I couldn't say that any better,
30:11
Jr. That's perfect.
30:12
That's and that's exactly what it that's exactly what it is.
30:15
We wanted to we peeled those onions back the layers last
30:19
week. We get like kind of pulled the
30:21
curtains back and just let y'all in.
30:24
That's what we're about to do now, like Jr. and I've we've
30:27
talked, we know this is happening.
30:29
It is super fresh, but we haven't talked talked and we
30:33
kind of wanted to save our talk talk for this for this show so
30:37
that maybe maybe there's some ideas and that's exactly you
30:40
couldn't upset it any better. Jr.
30:42
We definitely want you bubble army out there, you tigs wigs,
30:46
you just listening. That's never hurt us before.
30:49
Give us some ideas. I think this show's kind of new
30:52
now we've got a fresh new show. It's just going to be the two of
30:55
us whenever we put these out, so.
30:59
And with our with our already condensed back to quality over
31:04
quantity theory in podcasting, meaning if we come to the plate
31:09
again with guests, we don't have to pick which show we want to
31:12
try to put it on or how we're going to format it all that we
31:15
just cut a podcast like we intend to do the like you
31:18
started Tigs bits to do and like I ever wanted to do podcast and
31:21
listen to them is just to cut a podcast just yeah, just to rap
31:25
about things that you find interesting and.
31:29
Can. Enjoy the conversation like an
31:31
NPR, but not quite so nerdy. You know what I mean, right?
31:34
Exactly the hair. Under that, where I can
31:36
understand good old boys, can understand Southern perspective,
31:39
the Southern culture I want to. Just say thank you to to Blasey
31:46
what a ride we've had. There is 0 animosity.
31:51
Or it was, it had nothing to do with anything to do with the
31:56
deconstruction of Tigs bits. It had nothing to do with any of
31:59
that or any of our meetings or, or anything.
32:03
So I, I, I just want to, I want to say that we say that in, in
32:07
the, in that show as well. And, and that is the, that is
32:10
the bottom line and the, and it is the truth.
32:12
We're going to miss that sucker, dude.
32:14
There ain't no doubt about it. It's today I'm putting a
32:18
putting, making thumbnails and doing stuff like that for the
32:23
Bubba exclusive that that's out. I sent sending it to Seth, all
32:27
that it really kind of started hitting me.
32:29
But like it just like I told Blasey, I meant man, we we
32:34
freaking did this thing in this little run that that we had all
32:37
together of I mean, we had a Super Bowl winning quarterback
32:42
on. We had an American Idol winner.
32:45
We had Marty freaking Smith, who's at the Masters right now.
32:49
I mean, we had all of the DDP, all of these people and all of
32:55
these shows, and then getting picked up with the Bubba Army
32:58
and getting to start to do that. And now I have a new fans, many
33:03
of which are in this room as we're doing this live.
33:06
I mean, it's just been a blessing and it's been so much
33:08
fun. And a lot of these successes
33:11
definitely come from Blasey and knowing his stuff and knowing
33:16
with Bubba and bringing it on. So I mean, I hate it.
33:19
I hate it, but I get it too. I mean, he's just been too Dang
33:23
busy and doing what he does. He's entertaining doctors and
33:27
things like that at night. He can't do a podcast and then
33:31
he's busy during the day and he can't do a podcast.
33:35
And that's OK, man, That's OK. The doors always open.
33:38
I like, I told him I went, dude, you know, I know right now this
33:43
is the decision 100%. And we, we're not even trying to
33:47
be like, no, come on, man. Like he said, it's this is final
33:51
And, and I respect that, but he knows that the door is always
33:55
open. But going to miss having Blasey
33:59
be a part of the show and our little creative energy.
34:03
I, I don't think we're done hearing from Blasey at all.
34:08
I think he's just got to get everything wrapped up with work
34:10
of what he's doing. We'll get him in here to
34:13
interact. Let's see what you're saying,
34:15
Chat. Let's see what you're saying.
34:17
Oh, first of all, what's up, Mr. Malcolm?
34:20
Malcolm Rousey? Yes, Sir.
34:22
Got to meet Malcolm at the crawfish deal.
34:26
Stale crackers deal. Over the weekend.
34:28
He was at the farm to fire tent. They were hosting him and and
34:32
lovely Miss Carmen. So nice to meet them.
34:35
And I look forward to talking more and more about them and
34:39
getting to know them. Oh, yes, what's up over the
34:42
line? As I've said in the show, got to
34:45
give you credit, Sir, got to give you props.
34:48
Thanks for getting the video version of our show to start
34:52
playing on on Bubba. It's a it's super, super
34:55
helpful, super helpful. Here we go.
34:57
Mr. Casteca. He's going to miss Blasey, but
35:00
you can tell that he was overloaded with work and family.
35:03
He was man, and it was just hard.
35:05
It was that that was hard for all of us to be able number one.
35:10
And we we talk about this. It's just so hard to get three
35:13
people in the same room at the same time.
35:17
And then the frequency of shows that we were needing to make and
35:20
the things that we were doing it, it just made it, it made it
35:23
tough, if not almost impossible. And the guy over here who's
35:27
producing it, it just made it, it just made it difficult for me
35:32
especially. And we get, we get into, we get
35:35
into that on the show and, and, and all that.
35:37
And, and it's OK. We all had, we all had great and
35:43
good intentions of really wanting to make it dig in and
35:47
work. And we all did and we all have.
35:50
But in order to make it in this day and age and in social media
35:54
and doing all that, you got to go, go, go.
35:57
And you can't have a hiccup really.
35:59
And you can't for long. And we just we're just trying to
36:03
make it work. Jr. and I have a whole new
36:07
vision, a whole new direction now.
36:10
And I think it's going to be, I don't think I know it's going to
36:12
be a lot of fun. It's going to be more
36:15
streamlined. I think y'all will appreciate
36:17
that. Maybe tonight's one of the not a
36:22
good example of a show that that streamlined as we talked about a
36:26
bunch of stuff. But I'm still going to talk
36:28
about a variety of shows. That's still what I want Tigs
36:31
tonight. That's what I want this show to
36:33
be, our Bubba exclusives. We're going to bring some of the
36:36
best of this world, some of the best.
36:38
I'm going to be doing stuff outside of the studio and
36:41
outside of this long form content.
36:44
I'm going to be doing restaurant reviews, cooking up.
36:48
Got some stuff. I'm not going to.
36:51
I won't. I'm not, I'm not, but I'm going
36:53
to be doing some restaurant reviews soon.
36:56
I'm not going to say with who you could probably guess, but he
37:00
and I are going to be going and doing some restaurant reviews,
37:03
maybe making some collab videos together.
37:06
I'm going to be doing that with some other folks too.
37:08
So they're going to be doing more stuff, just not necessarily
37:12
always here in the long form content format.
37:16
But in that public show, we can start to bring some of that best
37:18
of that stuff in, play it in, bring some of the best of what J
37:23
Rs got coming in. Spoiler alert, he has Morgan
37:26
Wallin's tour manager as his first guest on his podcast.
37:30
That is coming out very soon, within the next three or four
37:34
days, hopefully. I mean, come on.
37:38
So we're going to start to do some of that.
37:40
We're going to have guests that'll come on too over on
37:43
those Bubba exclusives. Basically what we're saying is
37:46
like we're just going to start making shows and we're just
37:49
going to pump that content out to you.
37:51
It doesn't really matter what brand or what it is.
37:54
We're just we're going to have fun, gang.
37:57
We are going to have fun. Brian says that he will miss
38:00
Blasey. He will miss Blasey.
38:02
Yes, we absolutely are going to Paul Rogers brother Paul.
38:07
I understand that Blasey can't be here.
38:09
He wishes him well and hopefully we can see him again when he's
38:13
available in cheers. I just, I really, really, really
38:18
don't think that we're done with with with seeing Blasey.
38:23
I don't I don't, I'm going to get out of here.
38:25
That's going to wrap up tonight's episode.
38:27
