Transcript
- 0:00You ever wonder if. You've just.
- 0:03Gone a little bit. Too far.

- 0:07Too far these. Days, honestly.
- 0:10So between AI girlfriends and beer infused charcoal, I'm kind
- 0:18of starting to think we may. Just have.
- 0:27Got a wild one for y'all tonight.
- 0:29Gimmicks on the grill, AI relationships, and probably some
- 0:33takes that may. Ruffle a few feathers.
- 0:36So if. You're into food, tech or just
- 0:39hearing someone? Say probably what you're.
- 0:41Thinking then you're in the right place.
- 0:44Look, make sure that. You are subscribed wherever.
- 0:48You're listening. Head over to Tigsbits.
- 0:50Dot com to catch everything else that we've got going on.
- 0:55WWE has officially. Pulled WrestleMania 42 from New
- 1:00Orleans. It was set April. 11th through
- 1:0312th in the Super Dome and no real reason was given, just a.
- 1:10Vague. Rescheduling with no Luke, no no
- 1:14no new location announced. But fans, city officials and and
- 1:22pretty much everybody just can't believe that this has happened.
- 1:25I've been reading Twitter, reading X and just see in the
- 1:29comments and that. People are upset.
- 1:32It should be. People should be upset.
- 1:33It's a huge. Loss for New Orleans when they
- 1:36bring in 10s of millions in tourism dollars.
- 1:40People had already booked hotel. Rooms.
- 1:42Started to schedule. Things they're doing all.
- 1:45Of this stuff. And now, I mean, you had the
- 1:48damn rock come out in February and announce this thing is in
- 1:53NOLA, baby. And all of this just huge
- 1:56announcements just to yank it away.
- 2:00The hell, man. Yeah, I'd be pissed off if I'd
- 2:04booked a. Room and couldn't get a refund.
- 2:07I mean, come come on down, come to New Orleans.
- 2:10You're going to have a good time and our great state of
- 2:13Louisiana. However, I get it that you're
- 2:16not going to get to see WrestleMania.
- 2:17That would suck, and it's probably going to be about the
- 2:20same time. We'll see how this all works
- 2:23out. Rumors around the Internet
- 2:26though. Is that the WWE?
- 2:28Is signing a multi year multi event.
- 2:32Deal with different cities. Across America.
- 2:36Think Madison Square Garden. You know Saint Louis.
- 2:42These types of places. San Diego.
- 2:44LA all of that. They're expecting New Orleans to
- 2:47be a part. Of that, so I've got a.
- 2:49Feeling that WWE will make it up to New Orleans for canceling
- 2:56WrestleMania. But damn, I mean, it kind of
- 2:59just tells you. I'm going to be honest with you,
- 3:01since WrestleMania has happened, I haven't really been watching
- 3:05much. WWE.
- 3:06I just kind of. Quit.
- 3:08Karen, I watched a. Little bit of backlash.
- 3:11That was a great match with Randy Orton and John Cena, but
- 3:15since Backlash, I haven't watched anything.
- 3:18I think they're having to shake some stuff up a little bit.
- 3:21Who knows? Who knows, But it's just a.
- 3:24Huge, huge loss. For New Orleans and you know,
- 3:31we'll see. We'll see.
- 3:32There's a the NOLA. There's a little local.
- 3:35Statement also that I read nola sports Foundation said they'll
- 3:39still. Host UFC.
- 3:41Through 318 and apparently money in the bank.
- 3:46Maybe in 2026. But.
- 3:49It ain't WrestleMania, man. It's not WrestleMania.

- 5:50Well, how do I get this or how do?

- 6:05support all of our friends. Louisiana might not love this.
- 6:11They're probably not going to love.
- 6:12This at all but. I think American Idol.
- 6:17Got it right this year. Yep, I said it.
- 6:20Now I know a bunch of y'all probably do not watch American
- 6:22Idol nor. Really.
- 6:24Do I? But be in here in Baton Rouge,
- 6:28it's all over my socials. This you know, this John Foster,
- 6:32this 18 year old kid from Addis. Which hitting far?
- 6:36From Baton. Rouge, I heard his.
- 6:38Song as an original song. God, it'll.
- 6:40Break your heart, it's so good. Man.
- 6:44So good, but. You know.
- 6:47I I decided all. Right, I'm going to go back and
- 6:50start so. I got to about.
- 6:52The midway, I didn't realize I could watch it on Disney plus #1
- 6:58and I have the Hulu ESPN Plus. Package so I was able to watch
- 7:02it go back a little bit. So if you.
- 7:05Have that you can do that. But.
- 7:07Leading up to the finale, I wanted to see what the heck's
- 7:10going on. So I started.
- 7:13On like gospel night, which is great.
- 7:15That they have that. And then moved into.
- 7:19Judges choice like I. Wanted to hear.
- 7:21What the judges? Wanted them to sing because
- 7:24that's always interesting. And then I moved into Disney
- 7:27Night, because Disney Night, always.
- 7:29Pulls people out of their. Comfort.
- 7:31Maybe they don't know the songs, maybe they do.
- 7:33Some people shine, some people don't.
- 7:36The the vert look I've. Watched American Idol from the
- 7:40beginning, probably the first ten years.
- 7:42Of it I haven't. Watched it as much over the last
- 7:44handful of. Years we've had Taylor.
- 7:46Hicks on the show. You can go back and check that
- 7:49out. An American Idol winner.
- 7:51I love Taylor Hicks, but this is.
- 7:55One of the. Best groups that I've ever.
- 7:57Seen because, I mean, I jumped in midway through the season.
- 8:01Everybody's already good at. That point.
- 8:03But then it came down to the final five and you had Jamal
- 8:07Roberts, you had John Foster, Brianna Nicks, Slater Nalley and
- 8:12Thunderstorm Artis. I don't know if you pronounce
- 8:16his last name. Artis, but you should.
- 8:18You freaking should. That final five, unbelievable.
- 8:22And I think all five of them are going to have amazing careers
- 8:26and you're going to hear those names, those five names, you're
- 8:30going to hear them again. You.
- 8:31Absolutely. Will, but of course.
- 8:34I got to give a major. Shout out to to.
- 8:36John Foster, I'm going to tell you right now they got it right,
- 8:41American. Idol got it right.
- 8:44Jamal Roberts was hands above. Everybody else the.
- 8:49Things that he can do, his voice, everything, just
- 8:54unbelievable and he's got it. Any man, he's from the South.
- 8:59He's still from the. South The Baton Rouge boy didn't
- 9:01win it. It's OK.
- 9:03He's from Mississippi, he's 27 years old.
- 9:06He's a gym teacher man in Meridian, Ms. and just watching
- 9:12the videos. The way that those kids love.
- 9:14Him. It's very obvious that he's.
- 9:18Given back so, so much and everybody's so happy for him.
- 9:22As they should be. Very deserving, Very, very
- 9:27deserving. And I have.
- 9:28To say as a. Side note.
- 9:30I love the little bit that I watched.
- 9:32Of the season just kind of clipping through to get the.
- 9:35Get the gist? I got to say, the Lord was.
- 9:38Praised on these shows. The way that he should.
- 9:43Be and just fantastic really to see.
- 9:47That. From all of them, Jamal.
- 9:49Roberts, He has a. Song heal that is just, I mean,
- 9:53that's a that's a church song. There's no doubt that I don't
- 9:56know the back. Story of it.
- 9:58But that came from the church. I promise you 100% unreal.
- 10:04Just I mean, it hits you, Brianna Nix singing singing so
- 10:09many different. Spirituals, Just I love it.
- 10:12I love to see. That I'm hoping, my opinion, I'm
- 10:16hoping that there's going to be more of that in the country,
- 10:19more of that moving forward. I think that is a good.
- 10:22Thing and I think it's something good that could happen to music
- 10:26you know I think there's going to be a resurgence in spiritual
- 10:30music not that there's ever been a decline necessarily, it's its
- 10:35own little niche, but I think that a lot of.
- 10:38Stuff is about to. Start crossing over again.
- 10:41You you know, you've got Lauren, Lauren Daigle, who's a Louisiana
- 10:48girl. She's unbelievable fantastic
- 10:51voice. She's one of those crossovers.
- 10:53I think one of these guys could be one of those crossovers too.
- 10:56So I'm looking forward to it. It it was fantastic.
- 11:01Just a. Great, great, great show.
- 11:04But you know, look, I know not everybody watches American Idol,
- 11:08and some maybe think it's a little bit of a gimmick.
- 11:13Maybe so. Maybe so.
- 11:15But. Speaking of gimmicks.
- 11:19We're going to talk. About gimmicks for a second,
- 11:26Kingsford. Has a charcoal out.
- 11:31I've dropped this saying it's a beer infused charcoal and yeah I
- 11:34tried it. Spoiler alert, your grill.
- 11:38'S not going to. Smell like a brewery?
- 11:41Honestly, it. Just smells like charcoal.
- 11:44It's just charcoal. Let's call it what it is.
- 11:47Now you can see in the little briquettes.
- 11:48I should have brought one in here.
- 11:49You could see in the little. Briquettes.
- 11:51There's a little. Brown pieces in there I can only
- 11:54imagine. That has to be.
- 11:57Whatever they think the beer is that you're putting in there, I
- 12:01don't know. I don't know.
- 12:03But look, I think it's a fun idea.
- 12:06It's good marketing, obviously, if you think it's going to
- 12:10change the taste. Of your ribs.
- 12:12I don't. I got another thing coming for
- 12:14you. Stick with a good wood.
- 12:16Blend on that you're you're not going to tell anything any
- 12:19different. It's just a freaking.
- 12:21Gimmick. That's all it.
- 12:22Is that's all it is. So I had to look it up.
- 12:24I was like, what the hell is? Going on with this.
- 12:27Like what the hell? Is going on right, You know it's
- 12:32Miller. Lite my boy.
- 12:33Likes Miller Lite? Oh, Austin Dennis.
- 12:35Beer. Coal.
- 12:37Is crafted by infusing. The charcoal briquettes with a.
- 12:43Concentrate of real Miller Lite. Beer.
- 12:47Now somebody please explain to me.
- 12:51How that beer? Is going to still be flavorful
- 12:55when that. Little piece of charcoal.
- 12:57Is glowing red. It's 800 damn degrees.
- 13:01It's ready to do it stuff how on.
- 13:05Earth. Is that going to give off?
- 13:07A beer flavor. Any kind of beer.
- 13:10Flavor that was there. Has burned off.
- 13:12It's straight up charcoal at this part so.
- 13:15I don't get it. This whole process is.
- 13:18It's stupid. I think it all goes back to the
- 13:22whole Bud Light. Controversy.
- 13:24Apparently this was introduced in 2022 and I think that's when
- 13:29it happened, and maybe 2023 and it.
- 13:32Sold out rapidly. Because of the high demand.
- 13:36Are you sheeple that? That damn desperate that you're
- 13:39not going to drink a bud. Light that.
- 13:41You're going to start buying the Kingsford.
- 13:43Maybe it's a smart move for Kingsford.
- 13:45Kingsford's like, hey, we're going to put a big old Miller
- 13:48Lite, America's now America's beer on a piece.
- 13:52Of charcoal charcoal bag, Maybe people will buy it.
- 13:56It is so dumb. I just it's so.
- 13:59Dumb. It is one of the dumbest things
- 14:01that I bought now, the only reason that I bought it, I was
- 14:05at Sam's Club. I was buying stuff.
- 14:07I didn't want to go to another store and they had charcoal and
- 14:09that's what was. Available.
- 14:11That was it. That are some match light.
- 14:13I wasn't buying match light. So here we go, let's try this
- 14:17beer. Coal, and it is.
- 14:19Great charcoal. And if it's on sale?
- 14:21I highly highly suggest. Buying it?
- 14:24Otherwise, skip it. Move on, it's a damn waste of
- 14:28time everybody. This is.
- 14:31A very, very. Wild, wild, thought Gary.
- 14:36Vee I don't know if. You guys follow.
- 14:38Gary Vee or You Know who? Gary Vee is.
- 14:41He said that one day your grandkids might marry AI.
- 14:46He may, Might. May.
- 14:48I said that right? I can't even say it.
- 14:50It doesn't even want to come out of my mouth, right?
- 14:53One day your grandkids might marry AI.
- 14:56And honestly? He he really.
- 14:58I don't. I don't think he's wrong.
- 15:00Watch this. What are your top three most
- 15:02insane AI predictions? That your grandkids will marry
- 15:06an AI human and. What's your conviction level on
- 15:09that A. 100%. That they're going to marry an.
- 15:12AI that your grandchild is going to marry an AI human so.
- 15:16This is what we've been talking about.
- 15:17I think people are going to have relationships fully AI
- 15:20boyfriend, girlfriends, I I think it's going to be
- 15:23indistinguished. You mean Megan Fox, right?
- 15:25The thing like from that movie, You saw that on Netflix?
- 15:27Like the AI? Robot.
- 15:28There was she or her or whatever.
- 15:29It is not that one, there was a Megan Fox one that just came
- 15:31out. Nonetheless, they're all the
- 15:32same. I believe a robot that is fully
- 15:35AI will marry a human and vice versa.
- 15:39For real in your lifetime at scale.
- 15:43I don't think he's wrong. I do not think he is wrong.
- 15:46I think that is one of the most outrageous things that I've seen
- 15:51this week or in the. Last couple of weeks for.
- 15:54Sure. Just I mean the way that AI is
- 15:58taking overlook, I mean AI girlfriends are already a thing.
- 16:03They're already a thing, and some folks say it's just lonely
- 16:08people getting company. Others say maybe.
- 16:11That's a little bit of a red. Flag.
- 16:14Maybe it is, I don't know, but I think we're going to see more
- 16:17and more blurred lines between tech and relationships.
- 16:22I mean it's already happening but can AI really replace?
- 16:26Love. I don't think so.
- 16:29No, how the hell? Can you love something that all
- 16:32it's. AI to me.
- 16:34Is like a dog. In a sense, I mean if you.
- 16:37You've got a dog that is loyal at law, loyal to a fault.
- 16:43I don't need these headphones anymore.
- 16:45That are loyal to a fault. They love you no matter what.
- 16:51You could beat. A dog I'm not do not beat dogs.
- 16:54But you could. Beat a dog and that dog.
- 16:56Still loves you. You could beat an AI.
- 16:58Robot, that AI robot. 'S still going to love you at
- 17:01the end of the day, it's still. A robot.
- 17:03So I. Say no, AI can never replace.
- 17:07Love because AI just caters to you, that's what it does, trust
- 17:12me. But it can replace some bad
- 17:14habits and some distractions, maybe.
- 17:16Yeah, kind of like. Gary Vee was just.
- 17:18Saying maybe it does and maybe you're a.
- 17:21Frisky couple out. There and you want to start to
- 17:23swing a little bit. There you go.
- 17:26You can have a throuple now you can bring in.
- 17:29Your AI robot. Into this whole deal.
- 17:31Maybe it helps some folks out. Maybe it saves some marriages.
- 17:35I don't. Think he's that far off?
- 17:37Base. It's kind of crazy.
- 17:39It's kind of a. Crazy thought, but here's a real
- 17:42question. For you out there.
- 17:43If your. Girlfriend's not real.
- 17:46Is it still cheating because there's a million dudes out
- 17:50there in full blown ass? Relationships with AI, right?
- 17:53Now, and I'm not even joking, I'm not even joking.
- 17:57So let's break it down for a second.
- 17:59What the hell is an AI girlfriend?
- 18:02What is it? Well, you got chat bots.
- 18:04They're companions that are kind of designed to simulate romantic
- 18:09or emotional intimacy. Their apps probably shouldn't
- 18:14name these, but I'm going to like Replica.
- 18:17Eva. AI or even Snapchat.
- 18:20AI's besties. I don't even have Snapchat.
- 18:23I'm going to be honest with you. But I've heard about this it
- 18:26offers. Flirty, romantic, or even not
- 18:29safe for work conversations. Grok.
- 18:31Does that as well. You can do that.
- 18:34I've had a conversation with. Grok with Groks.
- 18:37NSFY or NSFW deal? It's a little, it'll make you
- 18:44blush. Shouldn't make a sailor.
- 18:46Blush. It tells you what you.
- 18:47Want tells you what you want to hear.
- 18:50But look, you can customize. Their voice.
- 18:52Their. Looks, their personalities I've
- 18:54seen. Robots with these faces.
- 18:57And they have so many different little mechanisms in their face.
- 19:01If they look, they look almost real.
- 19:03Almost real. But we're in 2025.
- 19:07Imagine in 2045 what these things are going to look.
- 19:11Like, like we've literally. Gone from born in the 70's, the
- 19:1680's, the 90's, the Internet's born.
- 19:20Computer stuff's getting better, 70s and 80s.
- 19:22Stuff with computers are starting to happen. 90s.
- 19:26The two. Thousands the two 10s to now
- 19:28iPhone invention the rapid. Rise up of.
- 19:32Everything quantum computing, once that gets there and
- 19:36everything can just completely be in real time.
- 19:39Like I can be talking to you and if I'm talking on the other
- 19:42screen to an AI, it's talking back to me.
- 19:45I think it'll get so good that it can even.
- 19:47Over talk like. Blasey, myself and Jr. used to
- 19:51do on the show. It can just.
- 19:52Start to over talk you. It's going to do all of that.
- 19:55Stuff it's. Going to do all that stuff.
- 19:58It's doing it now, y'all it? Is I use it every day for just
- 20:02about. Every kind of task I don't use.
- 20:04It for that. I don't use it for that, but I
- 20:07do use if. I use it for helping to make
- 20:09this. Show it's probably why it.
- 20:10Gave me this suggestion No. I've been thinking about this
- 20:14for a minute and then once I. Saw the Jr. the Jr. the the the
- 20:20Gary Vee clip. It made me go like.
- 20:23We got to talk about this, yes. Jr. and I were going to talk
- 20:26about this tonight. No matter what, it's going to
- 20:30come out Who's using them? Who is?
- 20:32Using this stuff, it's mostly men aged 18 to 40, which is
- 20:37surprising, though it's spreading globally, it says in
- 20:42the most common users are lonely individuals, socially anxious.
- 20:46Those that are, are. Delusioned with dating?
- 20:49That's what I'm saying. I think it can help.
- 20:51Some folks. In some ways I don't think this.
- 20:54Is a completely bad. Thing and it's weird that we're
- 20:58even having this conversation in 2025 if you would have asked me
- 21:01this. Five years ago I'd have thought
- 21:03it was bizarre. I don't think it's that crazy
- 21:06anymore. I really don't.
- 21:08I think it can help with mental health.
- 21:10I think it can help with confidence.
- 21:12I don't know. Is it a red flag?
- 21:15I don't know, maybe some people call it emotional support, some
- 21:18some people. Probably call it disturbing.
- 21:20But if your partner had an. AI side chick.
- 21:24Are you going to be cool with that?
- 21:26I mean. Or if your partner.
- 21:29Had an AI side dude are you going to be?
- 21:32OK, with that there's. Just, I mean, there's kind of a
- 21:35growing concern out there about real connection with real.
- 21:39People versus simulators. I mean, that's.
- 21:43That's what it is. That's what it is.
- 21:46Can't remember the name of that movie.
- 21:47Dad Gummet if. Jr. was here.
- 21:49He would, totally. Remember.
- 21:51But that movie? Where basically.
- 21:54You fall in love. With a robot like all of this,
- 21:56it's. Happening.
- 21:58This is happening. It's happening right now.
- 22:00So people are going to fall in love.
- 22:02They're going to claim that. AI has saved their life that.
- 22:05It's on their side. All of that like we are just.
- 22:08Getting closer and closer to Terminator 2 and maybe
- 22:13Terminator three. What in Terminator 3, Rise of
- 22:16the machines? Maybe that's where we're going.
- 22:19I don't know. I just don't know.
- 22:21I think the biggest the bigger picture of.
- 22:24Everything is that. Where will this take?
- 22:28Us in 20 years? Will Gen.
- 22:30Z and Gen. Alpha even bother with human
- 22:33intimacy in 20 years? I don't know.
- 22:37To be determined. Maybe we're witnessing the slow
- 22:40death of dating as we know it currently happening.
- 22:45Isn't that wild? Isn't that freaking wild while
- 22:48we're on the? Topic of tech Let's explore how.
- 22:51AI is making waves, not just in relationships.
- 22:54But also. In creative and technical.
- 22:58Fields. Yeah, it is so AI.
- 23:02In creative and technical fields you have some eco friendly.
- 23:06Gadgets like solar powered. Phone chargers, you know,
- 23:10chargers that are going to. Charge themselves based off of
- 23:15the the good Lord. Sunlight.
- 23:17I see stuff on rumble all the time like.
- 23:19These big batteries for. Camping.
- 23:22My neighbor has batteries on his.
- 23:24Sailboat. He's put these.
- 23:25Things out, you know that'll charge his batteries so he he
- 23:29doesn't have to. Have to worry about it.
- 23:31Smart thermostats, you know if you have one of those in your
- 23:35house, it can help you to save some energy, reduce your.
- 23:39Price that you? Pay on your bill every month.
- 23:42Of course, it can reduce your carbon footprint if you believe
- 23:45in all that. I don't.
- 23:47But it can certainly help save you money, which I do like.
- 23:52And I do understand, as I was alluding to AI vocal removers.
- 23:59This is where I think it's going to get interesting what happens
- 24:02with music and AI. And I want to have this
- 24:05conversation with Jr. more so than than just myself here
- 24:10alone. But what happens?
- 24:12With AI they have. These vocal removers now that
- 24:16can. Isolate vocals.
- 24:17And make it easier to remix tracks or to make karaoke
- 24:22version so it can just. Completely take the vocals.
- 24:25Out and I've messed with some of that.
- 24:26Stuff too I have. And it.
- 24:28Works. It works great.
- 24:29And that's a great. Tool.
- 24:31If you want to have a song, you want to do that.
- 24:33But what? About all these people.
- 24:36That start using AI to make music my whole problem.
- 24:41Was that with that is like how are.
- 24:44They going to perform like you. Still have to have.
- 24:46That person to person communication hands on.
- 24:51You need a drummer in the room? You need somebody hitting a
- 24:56beat. You got to have that.
- 24:58You got to. Have that the connectivity that
- 25:02humans get I don't think can ever be replicated, but man if
- 25:07we're 20 years from now and AI. Is as good as it is today.
- 25:12I mean, I think. It probably will be.
- 25:15I don't know how. But I think it probably will be.
- 25:18And then what happens to us? What happens to humans?
- 25:21I just don't think. I I absolutely drilled AI.
- 25:26On this. Today, like drilled it.
- 25:28I said, Nah, man, if you, you can never do it.
- 25:32And they it's like, no, we can never do it, you know?
- 25:35It's the powerful tool that can shape our.
- 25:38Future, but it's human stories and emotions and connections.
- 25:43That give the art its soul it's. Saying the right things, but Nah
- 25:47bro, it's taking over. I think there's going to have.
- 25:51To be a complete. Rise up against AI because it's
- 25:56going to filter into our music everything that's out there now,
- 26:01anything that's played. Pop.
- 26:03If they can figure out a way to make money, they can.
- 26:06Figure out a way to replicate it.
- 26:08And they can figure out a way to not pay an artist.
- 26:12Yeah, there you go. That's the music industry, and I
- 26:14promise you that deal is going to move.
- 26:16Forward so if you're. Going to just stay being stuck
- 26:20listening to. Pop radio, pop stuff, whatever.
- 26:24Good luck. You're going to be.
- 26:25You're going. To be a sheeple.
- 26:27You're going to be fed stuff and none of it's going to be
- 26:30original. My litmus test on any of this is
- 26:33can these. People do this live.
- 26:35Can they do it in front of a? Crowd without the.
- 26:38Aid of a computer. Can they just sing?
- 26:42Can they? Just play guitar.
- 26:44Can they just play bass? Can they just play the drums?
- 26:47Can they? Can they scratch?
- 26:49I don't even. I don't have a problem with
- 26:50turntables and stuff like. That that's artistry.
- 26:54But you start taking all of that.
- 26:56Stuff out. All of the things that makes
- 26:59music music, we got some problems.
- 27:03We got some. Problems.
- 27:05Yeah. All right, I'm off my soapbox.
- 27:10That's one of the things. I had flat out had to cover
- 27:14today. It just started.
- 27:15Pissing me off, I'm not going to lie.
- 27:18It's I love, I love AI. In so many ways it's so Dang
- 27:22helpful For me. It helps this show so damn much.
- 27:26It really does as a one man production.
- 27:29Crew over here AI. Is my hired assistant and I pay
- 27:33them 20 bucks a month and it's. So great, it's.
- 27:36The best $20.00 I spend. I wish you could cut my grass,
- 27:40that'd be amazing. It can.
- 27:42It can if you buy one of those robot ones.
- 27:44It can cut your grass, ladies and gentlemen.
- 27:48It is officially. My favorite season of the year.
- 27:52It's BBQ season, baby. Yes, it is BBQ.
- 27:57Season so let's. Talk about what is.

- 28:49Probably a good. Chance there's a little going to
- 28:51get drizzled on these. Ribs Riley Riley loves the the.
- 28:56Lafitte's candied jalapeno ribs that I made a few months ago
- 29:01kind of out-of-the-box. Just a little.
- 29:02Different, different take on ribs.

- 29:33the 6th grade. It did this sit.
- 29:35Down interview deal where they at the end of. 6th grade it.

- 29:46Hobby. What's your favorite food?
- 29:49All of those. Things and then when they were
- 29:51seniors in high. School, they asked that.
- 29:54Question again. God, I lost it, I'm not going to
- 29:58lie. What I watched about.
- 29:59Two of them and after the second one I made a note that Riley and
- 30:04I will be doing this this summer and going over it so I can make
- 30:08a video in a few. Years with his.
- 30:11Answers as he's a senior. But man, it just broke me I'm

- 31:17Cajun Dome in. Lafayette They.
- 31:19Put on a great show. I mean a.
- 31:21Hell of a show and such a good show.
- 31:25That my dad as we were leaving. He's like, you think they were?
- 31:29Really. Singing and well, yeah, they
- 31:31were really singing. Dad, what do you mean?
- 31:33They're really saying he's like, I don't know, they were doing
- 31:36these backflips on the stage and all.
- 31:38They never missed a beat. I was so entranced.
- 31:42By just the show. That wasn't really listening.
- 31:45But Dad could care less about the.
- 31:47Show was really listening and could tell that sounded.
- 31:51Like what he had? Heard on the radio.
- 31:53Dad called it before then. Maybe he even knew.
