- 0:00Tonight's show is going to be full of surprises.

- 0:14He was in Howard Stern's corridor office at one point.
- 0:19He sent us a picture, but you never know with Jr.
- 0:22He may chime in. Blossy, the one man posse, had a
- 0:25little conflict to rise this afternoon.
- 0:28But again, you know it's going to take hell and high water to

- 1:49College football 100% officially kicks off tonight and man, I'm
- 1:57and and there's a delay too. So the good thing is that we're

- 2:01We're going to wrap up and then we can just sail right on into
- 2:04some college football on Fox. Yeah, so then I, I tell people
- 2:09every year I, I feel like it's losing.
- 2:11It's like you, it's like losing your virginity every year.
- 2:14It's very exciting. You don't know what to expect,
- 2:18but you're going to love it. Oh, man, I cannot wait.
- 2:21I cannot wait. Well, Austin, we got to, we've
- 2:24had a blast this week. We were texting, we were just
- 2:27talking content and whatnot. Who knows what we were talking
- 2:31about and he's like, man, I'm just over here trying to trying
- 2:35to work up get this video filmed.
- 2:38What you doing? I'm I'm editing video whatever,
- 2:42come on over. So I did and Austin and I got to
- 2:45hang out and we had us a good time.
- 2:47And if you've seen the the beer cheese video, I was over off to
- 2:51the side watching that, watching the magic happen, seeing how the
- 2:56sausage was made. And it was fun.
- 2:59And that dip was good. No, next time it's it's, it's
- 3:03your house and I'm not bringing beer.
- 3:05I hope you just have a fridge full of beer.
- 3:07I got anything? I may have to Uber home or call
- 3:10my wife. That's right.
- 3:13That's right. Well, look, got to give a shout
- 3:15out to the people in the chat. We've got Mr. Paul Rogers in the

- 3:43you'll do it. They are fabulous.
- 3:47In fact, I had the let the last of my dozen chicken thighs.
- 3:51Like I told you, I have a little chicken hip obsession.
- 3:55I had the last of them today at lunch with that slow, slow rub.
- 4:01What is it? Nice and slow.
- 4:03Nice and slow you. Know it.
- 4:06I do know it, but it just. Look at it.
- 4:08Look. At it.

- 4:15Oh, we got Stacy G in the house. What is up Miss Stacy?

- 4:23Of course they do. We have koozies.
- 4:26Thanks to Austin, everybody. Y'all can thank Austin.
- 4:30I'm going to tell the story. I don't care, I don't care.
- 4:33I have my moments, OK? You know, I think I'm relatively
- 4:38somewhat intelligent at times and most of the time, but at
- 4:42other times I just flat miss it. And when I miss it buddy, I miss
- 4:47it. So he and I both use the good
- 4:50folks at Printify for our some of our merchandise and things.

- 5:34channel. So you go to I cook, you look
- 5:36and, and get, you go support him too and get you a koozie from
- 5:39him and some rub and all that stuff.
- 5:41But I'm like, man, do you have somebody who just prints it and
- 5:45mails it out? Like, that's what I need?
- 5:48Yeah, printify. And I'm like, now they don't do
- 5:50koozies. They don't.
- 5:52If you look for koozies or you look for everything else, it is
- 5:56called a can cooler. It is called a can cooler.
- 5:59So thanks to Austin's website, we got that straightened out.
- 6:02We could have been having these for years, everybody.
- 6:05Hey Tig, the only reason I knew it is because I went through it
- 6:08and it man, I was people were buying koozies for me.
- 6:12Like if I posted a viral video, people would buy the what the
- 6:14Hell's going on y'all koozies? And we had the slim cans and the
- 6:17regular cans for, you know, the ladies drinking high noons or
- 6:21the guys drinking middle lives. And by the time they bought it
- 6:24and paid shipping they were paying like $14.00.
- 6:27And. I'm like, man, we got to do
- 6:28something with this. This is who wants to buy a
- 6:31koozie, and by the time it's shipped to you, it's $15.00.
- 6:34So that's the fight you have to deal with.
- 6:36There's a monopoly on all this shit, so you have.
- 6:40To there he is for sure. Got to give a shout out.
- 6:42Paul Rogers was the 1st to buy a koozie.
- 6:45Shout out to Paul and, and, and we do hope over here at Tigs
- 6:50Bits to be able to drive the price of the koozies down
- 6:52because I can tell you we made $1.00 on the koozies.
- 6:56I'm not afraid to tell the profit margin on this.
- 6:59It's just so y'all can get some koozies.
- 7:01If you want some, go get them, you know, got to got to keep the
- 7:05lights on a little bit a dollar, whatever.
- 7:07That's what we were talking about a couple weeks ago.
- 7:09Like there's so many things that people think like, oh man,
- 7:12they're selling all this stuff and yeah, yeah, there's certain
- 7:15things that you either break even on or you make it not or
- 7:18on, but people want it. So you just figure out the best
- 7:20price. And koozies are not a good
- 7:23source of income. I just put it bluntly.
- 7:25But if somebody wants one, if I make $0.50 on and I'm like,
- 7:29well, they're available. I'm not charging 15 bucks a
- 7:32koozie, you know? No, exactly.
- 7:34I can't. I can't look myself in the
- 7:35mirror and do that. So I mirrored your price.
- 7:38It's $6.50 and it cost about that much to ship it.
- 7:42So as low as I can get it. But hopefully, hopefully we can
- 7:47get that down a little, a little bit, a little bit lower.
- 7:49But it looks good. I designed that sucker this
- 7:51morning. It's got all your Tigs bit
- 7:53stuff. So go check it out.
- 7:55You can go to tigsbits.com and and pick it up.
- 7:59Going to throw a little something out though.
- 8:00If one of you guys would like one of those koozies real easy.
- 8:05This is going to be real easy. I'm going to do a raffle
- 8:08tomorrow. Little drawing.
- 8:09OK, I'm going to give one of the first ever exclusive koozies of
- 8:15Tigs bits to one of our Tigs wigs that's in there.
- 8:19But you got to do one thing. You have to go to the website
- 8:22and you have to sign up for our newsletter.
- 8:25I know what you're thinking already.
- 8:27Newsletter, here we go. Here comes spam.
- 8:30No, I'm just going to send once a week or maybe even once a
- 8:34month. It won't be all the time.
- 8:36Just some show notes, a little blog.
- 8:38There may be something that you've missed just to kind of
- 8:40stay in touch with you guys and all of that.

- 9:02won, but I'll also document it so you know I ain't cheating.
- 9:05I don't want to hear it. Yeah, let's, let's give the
- 9:09koozie away, man and everybody. Knows he's not BS and that's
- 9:13just how it is, man. You, you do your giveaways that
- 9:15sounds like a promo, but at the end of the day it's just how it
- 9:18is. It's not, it's not for him to
- 9:23pay his house off or anything like that.
- 9:24It's just, you know, it's it's starting stuff up doing this
- 9:28merge. I did the same thing man.
- 9:29And people are like, man, why you?
- 9:30It seems like the promoting everything lately and I'm like,
- 9:33well, I mean, it's out there. I'm not, you know, paying the
- 9:36light bill with it, but we got it if you want to buy it.
- 9:39That's right. It's there.
- 9:40I mean, look, we we like to make a little bit of scratch to
- 9:44support our habit over here. I guess you can say we like to
- 9:47make content and have fun. We're doing enough to buy a case
- 9:50of beer once a month. That's it.
- 9:53And luckily appreciate it. It's that time of the month
- 9:56right now and we got a case of beer.
- 9:57So cheers. That's right.
- 9:59That's right. My boy Russell Swear is in the
- 10:03house. He says.
- 10:03Let's get it boys. That's my buddy Russ with T Russ
- 10:09is turn this right with T Russ's Cypress dust.
- 10:13You've heard me talk about this, Austin.
- 10:15I talked to him just before you and I went on the air and he
- 10:20he's going to send you some. I can't wait for you to try your
- 10:23no. He's going in a video for sure.
- 10:25I swear, though, when you said that, I I think I've seen it.
- 10:28I don't know where I saw it, but I've heard of Cypress dust.
- 10:31So we're we'll put in a video. I know it's going to be good.
- 10:34I know anything you try, I mean, you kind of have this, we talked
- 10:37about this last time you were here.
- 10:39We kind of have the same palette and some it's amazing, are
- 10:44terrible, but some are. It's funny too.
- 10:47The ones that aren't as well known or some of the best, it's
- 10:49kind of like songwriters. It's kind of like singers.
- 10:52You get an Ashford, you get a Broadway, you'll see some of the
- 10:55best musicians on the planet. Are they signed to a label?
- 11:00Maybe not, but it's still some of the best music you'll ever
- 11:03listen to. That's a fact.
- 11:04That is, that is a total fact. We have the blind Cajun cook in
- 11:09the house. She.
- 11:09Says my young man Judith. Yeah, he's good people, man.
- 11:13Judith, what the hell is going on?
- 11:17I love it. I love it for those those of
- 11:21that that didn't hear, I know a lot of these folks did hear our
- 11:24episode, but how did that catch phrase come along?
- 11:27Come give that. Give that story again.
- 11:29So like I told y'all last episode, it was kind of like it
- 11:33was an introduction video I did I think I had like, I don't know
- 11:3810 or 20,000 followers something like that on TikTok.
- 11:41Because I started on TikTok, I don't really post a Facebook or
- 11:43Instagram and I just started YouTube like six months ago.
- 11:47So I started on Facebook and Instagram finally.
- 11:51But anyway, backing up introduction video was more like
- 11:55I was just trying to put myself out there and just be like
- 11:58completely vulnerable. This is me.
- 12:01And in the beginning of the video, just I didn't know what
- 12:05else to say. And I, I didn't tell you this in
- 12:08the last podcast episode, but on my kitchen care, I didn't have a
- 12:12ring light. So I put, you know, the handles
- 12:14on your cabinets, how they're like vertical.
- 12:16Sometimes I put my phone and I, the way I situated it, the
- 12:21camera was still like elevated and like at the right height for
- 12:25me because I'm 62. So I put the camera up there and
- 12:29it kept falling down. And I had something I typed up
- 12:33and I've had it taped to the cabinet beside it.
- 12:35That way I could kind of reference it, but it wouldn't
- 12:37look like I was looking off screen.
- 12:39So I was just kind of like looking at it but talking and
- 12:42the camera kept falling out. But anyway, the intro for that,
- 12:47I just I just funny to think back now, I'm like, man, I was
- 12:49such an I was such a loser. No, you were just making do
- 12:53dude. I did the same.
- 12:54Thing I didn't know I was figuring it out, but in the
- 12:57intro I said like, what the hell is going on?
- 13:01And I said it just like that and it had no emphasis on it
- 13:06whatsoever. It definitely was not a tagline
- 13:09at all. And then it was what the hell is
- 13:12going on, y'all? And then it started elevating
- 13:14and it got to the point where it was like so in your face that it
- 13:18was what the hell is going on y'all?
- 13:22So then people would comment on all my posts.
- 13:25You didn't, you either didn't say it or you didn't say it like
- 13:28you meant it or I've been on live and somebody's say what the
- 13:31Hell's going on, y'all? And it got really, I won't say
- 13:35annoying because I'll never say it's annoying.
- 13:37If somebody's catching on to it, that's cool, but I would tell
- 13:41everybody in the beginning, if you say what the Hell's going
- 13:44on, y'all in the comments, I'm going to say it and I must say
- 13:46it just like I said on my videos and the first time I went for
- 13:51Matt, it's a it's a growth deal. So like when you have 40,000
- 13:56followers, you might have 50 people in your life and when you
- 14:00grow your your platform, you might have 400 in there.
- 14:04And if The thing is just spamming people saying what the
- 14:07Hell's going on, y'all? It's just back-to-back and you
- 14:12couldn't say it for more than one person.
- 14:13You had to say what the hell is going on, Brian?
- 14:17What the Hell's going on? Real?
- 14:20And it was just and I'm like, you know, you asked for this
- 14:22shit and it's here now. So it it's been cool, but.
- 14:27What the what the hell is going on with cones and all that
- 14:31stuff? So like when you what does that
- 14:33actually do for you as a content creator?
- 14:37You know you have like 350,400 thousand on TikTok something
- 14:42like that. So when you go live and people
- 14:46are doing hearts and gifts, I don't I don't know what all that
- 14:51stuff does. Can you explain that?
- 14:54Yeah, so like gifts are translated into money.
- 14:57But I always tell people when they get on my lives, I don't do
- 14:59lives for gifts. There's a lot of people that
- 15:02don't even really do content. They just go live and they make
- 15:06a lot of money off of just people send them gifts.
- 15:09Galaxies are big. They're, I think they're worth
- 15:11like 20 bucks and people will just keep sending gifts and keep
- 15:15sending it. So what I always tell people is
- 15:17I don't want you to send me gifts.
- 15:19If you do, that's fine, but save you gifts, save you money.
- 15:23Like the lives, share the live because what that does is when
- 15:26you're liking and sharing a live, that's getting more people
- 15:28in the live. And that's also the way TikTok
- 15:32works at least because that's normally where I go live.
- 15:34I do Instagram lives every now and then.
- 15:35Facebook is just like a disaster with lives.
- 15:39But so on Instagram, you can't play music in the background or
- 15:42they'll kick you off TikTok doesn't care about that.
- 15:44So on TikTok lives, I'll do like song requests and we'll have fun
- 15:49with it. But now it's, it's really just,
- 15:54I don't know. It's just, it's, it's just me
- 15:57hanging out, talking to people, whatever.
- 15:59And if you come in the chat, you want to talk, that's cool.
- 16:02If you don't, you don't. But the gift thing, no, it's
- 16:05it's really not that big of a deal with me.
- 16:07All these people make their money off of it.
- 16:09But I, I, I couldn't care less. I do what I do for content.
- 16:14I would love your engagement, but I'll never be that guy going
- 16:17like, hey, man, please send me these gifts.
- 16:20I discourage it. I'm like, do not, don't send me
- 16:22a gift like and share to live. Get more people in here.
- 16:25That's right, my content, your content circulates when you're
- 16:28on live. So the more people that are
- 16:31engaged to your live older content that you hadn't posted
- 16:35in six months, all that stuff just kind of starts yelling.
- 16:38That's just that. Yeah, yeah, I've never gone.
- 16:42I've never gone live on TikTok. Not opposed to it me and I think
- 16:45we should do one also. And I think it'd be fun, but I,
- 16:51I didn't know like when you're in there and you're in a live, I
- 16:54so many little options for things and I'm like, what?
- 16:58The other day I sent somebody a snow cone or something.
- 17:01I'm like, what did I just do? How did that work?
- 17:03I don't, I guess I had coins. I don't even know, dude, I have
- 17:07no idea. I think one time when I first,
- 17:10when we first started this show, I decided to promote a video or
- 17:13something and you had to buy coins in order to do that or
- 17:18whatever. And I still have some change
- 17:19leftover. Yeah, it's all Racket.
- 17:22I'm. Going to give it all to you.
- 17:23I've made the decision next time you're live I'm you get all my
- 17:27250 coins, whatever. That's worth eight cents.
- 17:30One thing I'm very proud of, I've never cashed in on one gift
- 17:34that anybody sent me. And I'm, you know, after a month
- 17:37of going live, I may have like, because I don't promote it, I
- 17:40might have like $125.00 worth of what they would say.
- 17:43Like it's like monetary value that I could cash out and put my
- 17:47bank account. I just re gifted to people and
- 17:50there are people that did the same thing I do and I just, I'd
- 17:53give them everything that I got and then the cycle starts over.
- 17:57But yeah, nothing about that is appealing to me.
- 18:01And it kind of seems, I don't know, it seems like it's
- 18:06cheating. Like don't give me like look,
- 18:09you work like I do. Don't give me money.
- 18:11I'm not. If you're entertained by me,
- 18:13that's great. But all I really ask is of you.
- 18:16Well, I can share the live. I don't really, I don't want
- 18:18your money at all. And that's not what I do live.
- 18:21I do live just like me and you sitting right here right now.
- 18:24I like to do lives to talk to people, let them know like what
- 18:29the camera looks like and shoot the shit with people.
- 18:32But beyond that, like man, that is not what I'm here for.
- 18:35No, and you like you're you're I mean, that's what we're doing
- 18:38too. This is slow growth.
- 18:40We over here at Tigs bits slow and steady wins the race though,
- 18:43baby. And and you know, you stay.
- 18:46We talked about this other day when I was at your house.
- 18:48Stay consistent, keep pumping it out.
- 18:51And I think that we've done a good a good job of that and
- 18:53we're growing. Like I told you again, we said
- 18:57we, we, we had too many conversations that we should
- 19:00have saved for the couch off air, just making sure his mic
- 19:03and all was working right, But that's OK.
- 19:06We'll rehash them. ChatGPT, man, just it, it's so
- 19:11freaking helpful with everything.
- 19:15You know that that we do and to be able to get ideas and all of
- 19:19that kind of stuff. But it's my personal assistant.
- 19:23I talked to ChatGPT today for dadgum near 3 hours.
- 19:27It was about two two hours and 40 minutes.
- 19:29I looked after we it's. Your girlfriend, it's Well, I
- 19:33don't know. I don't know how it.
- 19:34Was my business partner today for Dadgum.
- 19:37Sure. We talked a lot of business.
- 19:39We went through all of the numbers of all of the social
- 19:42media and everything, all to come to find out everything that
- 19:46I kind of already knew. But it's nice to have it
- 19:49confirmed back, you know, that, yeah, you're doing the right
- 19:53things. That's that's those key numbers
- 19:55are what you need. Like everything looks good.
- 19:57So. And you're way, you're way
- 19:59deeper. We were talking earlier like
- 20:01Tigs was way deeper in all the analytics of ChatGPT than I am.
- 20:06So the the most that I've ever done with ChatGPT is like, OK,
- 20:10it's Saturday morning. It's college football season.
- 20:13I have no effing clue what I'm going to do for a cocktail.
- 20:18So I know I'm going to put vodka.
- 20:21This is on this. So I say like Chad GBT, what's a
- 20:24good name for a cocktail Saturday during football season
- 20:27in the fall? And it'll always respond with
- 20:30like one cocktail name. And I'll just type more.
- 20:34And when I type more, I mean, there's fifty more names coming.
- 20:37And usually I will say this, I don't plagiarize Chad GBT.
- 20:42It'll usually be something that's like either the the
- 20:46prefix or the suffix of a name. And I'm like, OK, I think this
- 20:51would be good. And I add something to it that's
- 20:53not in the name. And I'm like, you know what?
- 20:54I made that up. You Dag, I'm right.
- 20:57You did. So that's what's fun about it.
- 20:59It'll get I'll I will keep talking to it.
- 21:02Get get different names and titles for stuff, but I don't
- 21:05ever just copy and paste it verbatim.
- 21:08I adjust it. I massage it.
- 21:10I talk to it like no talk to me in the way that tigs talks.
- 21:14You know how I talk. I've given you millions of hours
- 21:17of content. Talk back to me.
- 21:20Make this in Tigs tone and it will.
- 21:22It's amazing. Like it's your own little
- 21:24personal assistant. That's why, well, me and Chad
- 21:27GBT haven't gone that close, but I haven't really taken it out.
- 21:30You need to. You can name it, but man, it
- 21:33sounds like, sounds like y'all already took your clothes off.
- 21:36That's exciting. We, we, we, we've crossed, we
- 21:40crossed second base. It's OK, It's OK.
- 21:44Look, we got we've got George George Hoff AKA purple jersey
- 21:49says that you guys are doing an amazing job.
- 21:51Keep it up. Thank you so much George.
- 21:53Appreciate purple appreciate that the the chat is kind of
- 21:57moving and I'm missing some I am missing a few things.
- 22:01Oh boy, look who chimed in. What the hell is going on for
- 22:07Blossy of the one man posse? I knew he'd go.
- 22:11I knew he couldn't stop himself. We all the whole gang has to get
- 22:14together. Jr.
- 22:15Blasey me you like. I think it it needs to be a
- 22:18weekend. I don't like the world's rather
- 22:21the weekend I'm already, I'm already acting stupid.
- 22:24I don't think the world's, rather I don't think the world
- 22:26is ready for that. I think the world, our world is
- 22:30ready and it's ready for us. It is ready.
- 22:33What the hell you mean? Yeah, I think that the four of
- 22:37us at doing some kind of a function at the Flora Bama.
- 22:43I mean, I don't know what this. I.
- 22:44We've talked about it on shows we wanted #1 Blasey and I, we,
- 22:50we have a we're going to battle and a crawfish challenge at some
- 22:54point. I taught him everything he
- 22:57knows, but it's kind of like the student teacher kind of deal,
- 23:02you know, can the can the pupil beat the teacher?
- 23:04So that and and I believe that it could be a lot of fun.
- 23:09You know, yes, blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then,
- 23:13so it could happen I. Think it's worth man, keep it
- 23:17simple. Stupid is the right attitude to
- 23:19have going into a crawfish bowl. This is why Austin and I get
- 23:23along so much. I think we're long lost
- 23:25brothers. Somehow we figured this out.
- 23:28Like my wife says, I have a bromance happening.
- 23:31I don't care, it's fine. Well tell your wife it's OK and
- 23:34the feelings mutual and we're boyfriends.
- 23:36That's it, Live with it. Our buddy Mr. Bubba Fan, 69
- 23:42Austin. Are you married and if so, how
- 23:44hot is your wife? A lot hotter than me.
- 23:49That's a fact. I haven't met her yet but I've
- 23:51seen pictures in that is that it doesn't take much but she
- 23:55definitely is. Good.
- 23:56But the thing about that is I tell everybody, everybody's like
- 23:59man, how did you get such a hot wife?
- 24:00And I'm like, you know what, I found a really good looking
- 24:04woman that I had really poor vision and that's how it works.
- 24:09You know, if she can't see me very well, she doesn't know if
- 24:12I'm not very attractive and it works out, it's.
- 24:16Just the way to go. I love it.
- 24:19I love it. Chat is rocking and rolling.
- 24:21I don't know what this means exactly, but the Seth Kushner
- 24:25could buy a box of cards with that 125 bucks.
- 24:28I don't know what what 100? I don't know what it is, but I
- 24:31love it. And Blasey is just in there.
- 24:35He's like, here we go with the whole Bubba fan.
- 24:39The water's fine. Austin can handle this shit.
- 24:43I have no doubts about it. But well, let me bring this to
- 24:47another point. So a little little point of
- 24:50contention last night, I think was it Yeah, Yesterday I put
- 24:54that little video out of us. This is just stupid where I did
- 24:58the millions and I just harnessed my rock for a second.
- 25:01I don't know why that happened, but it did.
- 25:05And it's, that's why your videos work too.
- 25:08I think that's what we were talking about, authenticity and
- 25:11just being who you are. Somehow or another, I said
- 25:14millions of followers and then it just harnessed the rock and
- 25:17the millions and I couldn't, I just couldn't stop myself.
- 25:21But but that came out if you've and I know you've seen it.
- 25:25Whenever I I did the chicken salad videos and I went to new
- 25:29roads to to morels and met with my friend Lauren Gidros.
- 25:34Well, last night in my messages, she sent me something and she
- 25:37said, Oh, I have a lot of questions and I went, we'll jump
- 25:41in that chat tomorrow night. 7:00 come and get in it.
- 25:44And and she's, she laughed. She does.
- 25:48She is the head of the CCA up in new roads.
- 25:51She's runs the chapter. They were having an event
- 25:53tonight, so she couldn't couldn't jump in.
- 25:57She's going to listen though later she said.
- 25:59So here it is Lauren. She proposed this to us and I
- 26:03think that you're going to agree.
- 26:05So she wants you to come up and me film this, be a part of it.
- 26:11I don't know. She probably doesn't even want
- 26:12me to be a part of it, but I'm going to be a part of I'm going
- 26:14to film it. At least I am going to be a part
- 26:18of it. I'm going to be your taste
- 26:19tester is what I'm going to be. But she wants both of y'all to
- 26:22collab on some kind of a dish. Just do a collab.
- 26:26Come visit us at the world famous Flora Bama, a legendary
- 26:29honky tonk beach bar located on the gorgeous white sandy beaches

- 26:53Come do it with us on the line. For more information, visit
- 26:56ourwebsite@fourvima.com. I'm like, I'm pretty sure that I
- 27:02can convince Austin to, I can go pick him up at his house and.
- 27:06Take him to Durant and. We'll go make a day of this if
- 27:08you're. If you're driving, I'm going.
- 27:10Then it's done. There it is, Lauren.
- 27:12All right, get ready. What y'all doing?
- 27:16It's nice too, having a cameraman.
- 27:18If I don't have to bring my tripod, you're the camera guy.
- 27:20Like, dude, take me. I'm I'm ready.
- 27:22If if it's an open date, I'll go.
- 27:24And it's easy for your boy. I don't mind being the cameraman
- 27:28at all. Yesterday.
- 27:30Yesterday, I bit off a little bit more than I could chew.
- 27:33And we're starting to take this podcast to places that we're
- 27:38just start starting to do stuff. It's time to get out in the
- 27:40field. I'm tired of sitting in this
- 27:42room and being behind the screen.
- 27:43OK, I like to go meet with the people.
- 27:46I'm a man of the people. And, and so we're starting to do
- 27:50that. But yesterday I had an amazing
- 27:52experience. I, I met with a guy named Harold
- 27:55Laird who is who races NHRA drag cars.
- 28:00And he has this thing called the Child Rescue Network.
- 28:04He has it on this truck. And I wanted to have some video
- 28:06cut up tonight to put in the show, but I haven't got that far
- 28:11yet. We'll get we'll get there.
- 28:13But lot coming from that did an interview with him yesterday and
- 28:17basically what is a NASCAR hauler like he had he he takes
- 28:21this, he takes his drag car around the country races NHRA
- 28:26$400,000 race car pretty much at the end of the day, $1,000,000
- 28:30rig and all everything. And I know you've talked about
- 28:34you've been to some NASCAR stuff and been in the pits and all
- 28:37that. You've probably been in a
- 28:38hauler. I have not this is my first time
- 28:41and so we did an interview in that thing talking about this
- 28:45child rescue network, which basically he has all of these
- 28:49missing children images all all along this 18 Wheeler along both
- 28:55sides the back along his race hauler.
- 28:57It's really great idea. And he won the 2007 national
- 29:03championship in in Indianapolis and did something with the
- 29:07Discovery Channel and, and in the state of Louisiana tourism
- 29:13and some some other folks too, that it was called the Fireball
- 29:16Run. And they went around the country
- 29:20having awareness in these locations, like go to Chicago,
- 29:24go to LA, Las Vegas, all that of missing children in that area to
- 29:29bring. They had a big campaign with
- 29:31billboards and all that stuff. And they they were filming it.
- 29:34You know, it's ATV show too. But they were able to to help to
- 29:39find some missing children. So he's has a nonprofit agency
- 29:43and has started that up. So I went and spent spent some
- 29:46time doing that interview yesterday.
- 29:49My whole point with that was I didn't have a camera, man.
- 29:53I had to utilize some camera help a little bit throughout the
- 29:57interview. I have some other things, but my
- 30:00God, it was so hot. Like I look like you making a
- 30:03cooking video by the end of it yesterday.
- 30:06It was just terrible. You know, you came in different
- 30:11circumstances for everybody in the chat or everybody watching
- 30:14this live right now. Normally when I'm doing a lot of
- 30:17cooking, a cooking video or anything like that, I'm like
- 30:20really put together, everything's organized.
- 30:23And when Tigs came over, it was more like, hey man, I'm drinking
- 30:26beer on the patio. It's just a dip recipe.
- 30:29There's nothing to it. And I had AI had a really good
- 30:33time, but he did it. Just sometimes it gets you like
- 30:39that. But yeah, the camera aspect of
- 30:42it, I'm telling you, I know from experience.
- 30:44Me and my wife, like if my wife says hey, like, well, I lie.
- 30:49She never says, hey, you want help?
- 30:50It's usually me saying, hey, can you help me?
- 30:54I know what it would be like. Like, and I know this is like a
- 30:58very bad analogy, but like a Hollywood director, I feel like
- 31:02when I'm so serious about my content, my wife's holding the
- 31:06camera and she's like doing something.
- 31:08I'm like, do this. And it's not that she doesn't
- 31:11want to do it, it's just the fact that we're both type A's
- 31:14and she's like, oh, I'm already doing that.
- 31:16And I'm like, oh God, like if I can't tell you, we can't do it.
- 31:21That's why God invented the tripod.
- 31:24The tripod. And it's your fault if the
- 31:28angle's not right and. The Oh yeah, the.
- 31:31Tripod is your friend. The tripod was utilized heavily
- 31:34yesterday. I promise you it was.
- 31:37It was, but I still like having that person there that can do
- 31:40it. So I had to incorporate
- 31:42Harold's, Harold's girlfriend to help be my camera lady and walk.
- 31:47But dude, just going through a holler, all that stuff was just
- 31:51so much it. It's just fun.
- 31:53My take away from coming to your house and watching you create
- 31:56content is I am doing it right. That's what I that's what I came
- 32:01away with. Like.
- 32:03Yeah, that was my take away. Is I'm telling you, and I
- 32:06thought the same thing. I told you like I don't the
- 32:09good. So as long as you have that
- 32:11fight in you to if, if everybody's saying, oh, you
- 32:15know, you're not very big and you keep pushing and doing like,
- 32:18which I think like I told you too when you were here, I think
- 32:22you're as professional as anybody that's on radio, anybody
- 32:25else that I watch podcasts of. And if you keep doing what
- 32:29you're good at, eventually doors will open.
- 32:32And I think you're, I think you're right around the corner
- 32:35from something good happening. So I'm so honored on your
- 32:39podcast for the second time and, and, and be hanging out with
- 32:42you. But man, I'm telling you it was
- 32:43the same way. There's a lot of people that I,
- 32:45I would have called my friend that kind of laughed at the fact
- 32:48that I was doing cooking content on social media.
- 32:51But if you don't pay attention to that, you just put your head
- 32:54down and keep doing what you're doing.
- 32:56Obviously it gets to a certain point.
- 32:57If it's not being reciprocated and it's not fruitful, you know,
- 33:02you got to hang. But but if if you're moving in
- 33:07this direction, keep moving in that direction, don't let
- 33:11anybody just tell you from that, because that's it.
- 33:15It it's like anything else. If if somebody can dictate how
- 33:19much you put into something and how much you care about it now.
- 33:22And when I say that, I obviously there are people that that chase
- 33:27a dream way too full. Everybody can't do their content
- 33:31created. And I don't mean that ugly, but
- 33:34like, you know, if you go in the right direction, and I know you
- 33:38are man, just keep pushing because the, the, the more
- 33:41people that told me I couldn't do it.
- 33:43And I know this is so cliche, but I didn't give a shit.
- 33:47I just, I'll put that in the back of my brain.
- 33:50And every day, there were days when I got up at 3:00 in the
- 33:52morning before I went to work because I did used to have a
- 33:55regular job too. You know, I'd get up at 3:00 in
- 33:59the morning and get ahead of stuff and then get my shit
- 34:02together and go to work. And I may have made a video or
- 34:06organized all my stuff before I got home from work and then I
- 34:09did a video. But, and the naysayers are
- 34:12always going to be there. And it doesn't matter what you
- 34:14do. If you got people saying you
- 34:17can't do something, you probably do you're.
- 34:21Doing something right. That's exactly right.
- 34:24It still hurts a little bit, Austin.
- 34:26So how did you get past here in negative comments?
- 34:30We're good. I mean, we get an occasional
- 34:33one. The biggest thing that happens
- 34:35to us are the people that hate Bubba the Love Sponge and so.
- 34:41I. Know so that they, they come and
- 34:45they, they, they're hating on Bubba.
- 34:47So naturally they're going to hate on us just because we're a
- 34:50part of their deal, right? They may not like us.
- 34:52I don't know, They may not like the conversational style with
- 34:55Southerners as as Bubba says, but but how do you, how have you
- 35:00approached dealing with haters? Well, there's.
- 35:03There's I know you've gotten them.
- 35:05Yeah, there's times where I see comments and I'm not in a very
- 35:08good mood and I might violate a community guideline or two, but
- 35:13no, it's just, it's it's constant.
- 35:16You know, the more, the more exposure your video gets, the
- 35:21more comments you're going to get.
- 35:23So the way I look at it now, I'm like the last time we did a
- 35:26podcast together, I posted the trap trap tip video.
- 35:30Trap tip video didn't do shit. But I told you, that's more like
- 35:33that's the kind of recipes I want to put out.
- 35:37The video I put out today was a simple bit recipe.
- 35:42We talked about that on the last podcast.
- 35:44It's simple. It's not really what I would
- 35:48trademark myself as being good at.
- 35:50It's just something that I evolved into because people like
- 35:53to see it. It's easy recipes, but you know,
- 35:58the more the more comments I get that are negative.
- 36:02I know when they're negative, most of the time, every now and
- 36:05then you'll get one like, you know, 5000 views in that are
- 36:09that are saying something negative.
- 36:10But most of the time it's because your video is doing
- 36:13really well. So it's kind of in my mind now,
- 36:17because I've been doing it for a year and a half.
- 36:18I go, OK, well, the video is doing really good.
- 36:20That's why people, that's why the that's why the A holes are
- 36:24here, because you're so you have to look at it like that too.
- 36:28And it's, you know, you can, there's, there's certain things
- 36:32you can do to, to kind of bully them back without violating
- 36:38community guidelines. A lot of times I post emoji and
- 36:42it's this little emoji. Everybody probably knows what
- 36:45that means. Another emoji, the violin emoji,
- 36:51the violin emoji. And, you know, no community
- 36:54guidelines get violated that way, but they, they know what I
- 36:56mean. That that that's, that's pretty
- 36:59brilliant. See, that's what I, that's what
- 37:02I wanted to know without just coming across and being, how do
- 37:05you respond, if you respond at all?
- 37:07The what I've done is not respond at all and just
- 37:11basically block them, which is what you know what Brian Gilson
- 37:14says here it is. You got to ignore the haters.
- 37:17That's a fact. That's a fact.
- 37:19And and I pretty much have, it doesn't bother me at all, but in
- 37:22a way it does bother me a little at times.
- 37:27If it's worthy, if it's if what they're saying is kind of right,
- 37:31that bothers me. Yeah, You know what I mean.
- 37:34Yeah, but even if they're right, I'll never let them know, you
- 37:37know what I mean? Like it's.
- 37:38That there you go. What like what are you doing
- 37:41from your couch watching this video to tell me that, you know,
- 37:44I just spent 15 hours cooking or even if it's a quicker recipe,
- 37:47that's two or three hours and it took me an hour to edit.
- 37:50Just say I have 5 hours wrapped up in this video.
- 37:53I don't feel like unless you're a chef unless you're, and none
- 37:56of them ever are if unless you have some really good
- 38:00certifications to come in here and criticize me, I don't care
- 38:04what you say and how you say it. If you're being negative towards
- 38:07what I did, I'll either block you or I'll say something back
- 38:12that's polite. It's almost like bless your
- 38:15heart. You know the old saying, you got
- 38:17to find something, some way to say bless your heart without
- 38:22violate community guidelines. Because I've, I've had several,
- 38:25I mean, a year and a half in, I've had several where it's
- 38:27like, hey, you've been reported for bullying and I'm like, well,
- 38:31what about what they said? You know, I've had people tell
- 38:33me that I should. Off yourself.
- 38:38For for lack of a better phrase, and I'm just like, damn, I'm
- 38:42making cooking videos. It's not that good.
- 38:46What's really wrong with you? And.
- 38:49You know, you know Brittany Camille, right?
- 38:51Yeah. Yeah.
- 38:53Brittany came. She's been on the show and she's
- 38:55so awesome. I love her.
- 38:57She's just fantastic. I can't wait.
- 38:59I've never met her in person. I can't wait until I do.
- 39:02But I've saw her say something. Oh, she made recently some ribs
- 39:08and potato salad like her Mama does, and that's her thing.
- 39:12And and her little, her little boy wanted some Wibs and all
- 39:16that. I get it all.
- 39:18And it's awesome. But she said the first time that
- 39:21she did this, she received death threats.
- 39:25Like what the hell is? Wrong with people.
- 39:30Brittany's going viral a lot more often than I am.
- 39:33And you know Brittany was Brittany was following me before
- 39:36I was following her. And then we knew how mutually
- 39:40and her and how were all live together because Brittany came
- 39:43down to visit how and they were all live.
- 39:45I was in Alabama and I jumped on live to talk to him and I was
- 39:50bullshit with how and you know I always say what the hell is
- 39:52going on y'all, but with how her life always say what the hell is
- 39:56going on and Brady is sitting there and she's like I think
- 40:00I'll follow him. So then after the live Oh my
- 40:02God, well who is this? And I look it up and I think she
- 40:05has like 1.8 million followers. God, how embarrassing.
- 40:09She's following me and I'm not following her.
- 40:11So then we met Mississippi about four months ago at an event that
- 40:16I was judging a crawfish bowl at.
- 40:19Brittany is super soft of the earth.
- 40:22Anything you see in her videos that portrays her as being a
- 40:26very down to earth southern girl, that's exactly how she is
- 40:29care. My wife Carolina loves her super
- 40:32sweet and she really she's not really after the big brand
- 40:37attention. She went on next level chef.
- 40:41I auditioned for that show. I did a couple rounds of
- 40:44interviews and when I found out who got The Who got the part, it
- 40:49didn't bother me as bad because it was Brittany.
- 40:53I was in like that. I was in the final three from
- 40:55Louisiana and Brittany getting it.
- 40:58And we talked about it and she, I think she got knocked out in
- 41:02like the first round of the show.
- 41:03But Brittany, she's really good people.
- 41:06And Brittany, she's got, oh, she got one or two kids.
- 41:10She's married and she's got, she's got her, she's still got
- 41:13her nine to five. She gets up at like 3:00 in the
- 41:16morning. She'll cook, she'll do a recipe
- 41:19and then go to work and then she'll do all our kids stuff.
- 41:22And her thing is to get ahead on content, which I applaud her.
- 41:28I'm doing this full time now and I have the seasoning involved
- 41:31too. But she can.
- 41:32She'll get up and just do it before work.
- 41:35And dude, I can't imagine what about 9:00 AM feels like for.
- 41:39Her, I know that. That's what I asked her when she
- 41:41was on us at Brittany Walk us through a day and she went
- 41:44through and at the end I went when do you sleep?
- 41:49She's a she's a beast. She is it's it's motivating
- 41:53though, to talk to people like her like and you you are too
- 41:56brother. Don't eat.
- 41:57Don't sell yourself short. You're up early getting you were
- 42:00on live this morning at 4:00 AM while I was up at 4:00 AM.
- 42:04We won't get into. Me either.
- 42:07Yeah, exactly. People are like, did you go to
- 42:08sleep yet? I'm like, yes, I've been to
- 42:10sleep. My neighbor down the street,
- 42:12Renee, she, she's the one who wanted me to ask you the other
- 42:15day about your little bowls. Like why do you always use
- 42:18little bowls in these? Videos the the same reason we
- 42:22were just talking about people coming in the comments and
- 42:24saying stuff. I get it.
- 42:26I have I have bigger bowls in my house, Tigs.
- 42:28I know you do. I've seen them if you use.
- 42:30The smaller bowls, somebody always has something to say
- 42:33about me having a bowl, but it ain't going to fit in.
- 42:35Guess what? By the end of the video all that
- 42:38shit fits. It does that and it's secret
- 42:40sauce there it is because it does it gets how many comments
- 42:45would you say? Like if you have a video, I
- 42:48don't know, gets 100,000 views of comments about small bowl and
- 42:53you get 1000 comments on that video.
- 42:55How many are about the bowl? Like 150 at?
- 42:59Least if it's a video that got 100,000 views, there's probably
- 43:02at least 150 comments about the bowl.
- 43:08Well, it's almost like they think that they're digging at
- 43:10me. But it's also like, you know,
- 43:14obviously the first time I used the bowl that wasn't big enough,
- 43:16it was an accident. And then I learned that all the
- 43:19comments were going crazy. So I'm like, OK, well, maybe
- 43:23I'll use a bowl and I ain't a lot to you.
- 43:25There's been recipes where I've used the bowl that I thought was
- 43:27going to be just big enough and it wasn't big enough.
- 43:31Then I kind of go, hey, I relinquished and I go, hey, you
- 43:34know, I got I want this on a bigger bowl.
- 43:36Leave it to Renee Did. You still there?
- 43:45Thanks. Oh Lord,
- 44:09can you also hear me? Takes is gone.
- 44:11I can't see anything. It froze up.

- 47:39everything's OK. Our good friends CenturyLink is
- 47:42not involved tonight. And they're good people, by the
- 47:45way, The fine, fine folks at CenturyLink who took care of
- 47:50Blasey and all of his Internet needs.
- 47:53I think maybe we need to have CenturyLink here in Baton Rouge.
- 47:57You. Know what we're going to
- 47:58probably happen. Somebody was probably pissing in
- 48:01a ditch and the fiber, you know how it is, That's what it was,
- 48:05that's. What it was, Look, we these guys
- 48:07have, they've been used to it. They understand what happens
- 48:12here, that these lives just you never know what the hell.
- 48:15Happened was going to Polish off on you Austin every busted as
- 48:23soon as you left. I was like look Pig said I had
- 48:26to Co host so here I am y'all I'm doing.
- 48:28He, he's just he, that's what he does.
- 48:30And anybody who knows me knows that I do.
- 48:33Don't they call them Irish exits.
- 48:35I don't tell you I'm leaving. I just leave.
- 48:37Well, that was a hell of an Irish exit there.
- 48:41That one was one where I reset my router that is right behind
- 48:45these beautiful little displays because it was just blinking.
- 48:48I ran in the house like, Oh my God, I've lost the Internet.
- 48:52It's everything's going just something.
- 48:53Hey, 5 more minutes, but I was going to be like, hey, everybody
- 48:55go catch me on TikTok. I'll be right over there real
- 48:58soon. It might have been the first
- 49:00night we completed the show on TikTok, so if this happens
- 49:05again, it won't, but if it does, that's what we're going to do.
- 49:08Austin will go live. He's a lot easier to find than
- 49:12us because you know, you got to be careful with Tigs bits, you
- 49:16got to spell it right. But.
- 49:19If you were to tell them about that, also that.
- 49:24That yes, yes we do. Oh so so tigs hit a live with me
- 49:29on TikTok. I don't know what was that like
- 49:30a month ago. About a month, yeah.
- 49:33So he's like, hey, man, we we want to get you on the podcast.
- 49:35And I was like, shoot me Adm, whatever.
- 49:38And they shot me at the end. We talked about doing the
- 49:40podcast and I go on Instagram and just, I assume because he
- 49:45was following me, it wouldn't be that big of a deal.
- 49:48I just type in like tigs or tig. It would lead me to brown.
- 49:55So I didn't type in tigs bits. I typed in tig bits.
- 49:59And Lord have mercy is like I might as well have typed in
- 50:03Pornhub. I'm like.
- 50:07What is happening, man? Let me clear my search history.
- 50:11My wife's got like I'm searching for things like I'm satisfied
- 50:14what is happening? I'm just trying to do a podcast
- 50:16with this guy. It's unbelievable.
- 50:19So after you told us that I I decided to do the same search
- 50:23and I got it all back. It's like, it's like Sydney

- 52:09seriously, wherever you're at. And there's something that I
- 52:12kind of want you guys to do a little bit.
- 52:14I haven't. We don't ever ask and we should
- 52:17be asking this. If y'all listen to our podcasts
- 52:20on the audio form, like if you listen on Apple or Spotify or
- 52:24anything like that, go in there and leave us a review Bubba.

- 53:36paid his Internet bill. That's what happened.
- 53:38That is what happened. I got.
- 53:43It did, I'd messed up. I forgot to pay it because I
- 53:46don't have it on auto pay and I did get an e-mail and I hadn't

- 54:05this up right now. This is always kind of takes me
- 54:07a second to get it right. I've got it over here.

- 54:40Y'all can see that all right? You've got my pass on it now.
- 54:57Can you hear it? Yeah, Yeah.
- 55:03There's all over I. Haven't actually watched the
- 55:22video, I just listened to it. I like it.
- 55:29It's a big We've got the playoff hell.
- 55:44Yeah, dude, I'm in. I'm not going to keep going.
- 55:46It just keeps going. Like no, I love it this.
- 55:48Thing won't end. Somebody is somebody graduated
- 55:51from Florida because there was like 5 clips of Florida so
- 55:55irrelevant right now. Yeah, they, you know, back when
- 55:58I was a kid, Auburn and Florida were big rivals and I love
- 56:01watching them. And guess what?
- 56:03I just want to throw this out there for any Florida fans out
- 56:06here watching. Tebow never beat Alton, You
- 56:09know. Cheers for that, for a new
- 56:12Miller. A diet Miller, everybody and.
- 56:16As blasi, blasi, Blasi as Blasi would say, it's a diet Miller.
- 56:22That's exactly right. That's exactly right, man.
- 56:27It's Texas hillbillies. It sounds like 80s theme music.
- 56:31It does in a way. But what it really it's the it's
- 56:35the early 2000s. If you can go back to the Ron
- 56:39Franklin days and you remember those.
- 56:42Oh yeah. Ron Franklin's the greatest.
- 56:45Is that the one that used to say has five has 10?
- 56:48Is that that guy? Yes.
- 56:50Oh dude, I love dude. And he he got in trouble for
- 56:53some political reasons. He did.
- 56:57That's why he that's why he didn't call as.
- 56:59Many did. He did.
- 57:01That's right. Yes, And I was.
- 57:02Like, I love Ron Franklin. Like, yeah.
- 57:05So when when I go back and like every season, like 3-4 weeks
- 57:09before the season starts, I'll go watch like old Auburn
- 57:12highlights on the couch because I'm a piece of shit.
- 57:15But I'm kidding, everybody doesn't.
- 57:19So I've got to look. I've got to go back in the
- 57:21archives to find some good stuff.
- 57:23And a man when he called games. And do you remember Adrian
- 57:28Carson? Oh for sure, that tall dude he
- 57:31was. I was in the.
- 57:33Best sideline guy of all time. Like that was like, right?
- 57:37It was before HD came out and then it was when HD came out,
- 57:41dude. Give me him and Doctor Jerry
- 57:44Punch making the call any night. And Doctor Jerry Punch still
- 57:48does NASCAR. But I mean, what a name.
- 57:52I want to have him. I'm going to speak this into
- 57:54existence tonight, Austin. I want to have Doctor Jerry
- 57:58Punch on the show. You you should.
- 58:01Why shouldn't I? Why should we not have Doctor
- 58:04Jerry Punch? What are we doing if we don't
- 58:06try? We're going to try and it's
- 58:08going to, it's going to happen. That's going to happen the
- 58:11application then to get verified on TikTok but guess what it got
- 58:15denied cool and they said why do you want to be verified?
- 58:18I said because people keep stealing my content and my
- 58:22videos that are making money off of it, and they're like, well,
- 58:25that's not good enough. And I'm like, OK, well, maybe
- 58:27next year. Hold up time out so you can't
- 58:30get verified with 300,000 plus subscribers.
- 58:34No. So you have to submit an
- 58:36application with different publications that you've been
- 58:40posted in, things you've done to verify that you're white, I
- 58:45guess legit, which is. Really.
- 58:47Tits bits? I mean my God, what else?
- 58:49What other evidence do they need?
- 58:51One of the one of the so you could send 4 links.
- 58:54One of the links was the podcast, all these major news
- 59:02news deals. So I didn't have that, but I
- 59:05like Mississippi Queen, me and her really good friends,
- 59:07Caroline Davis and he's got like 1.8 million or one point.
- 59:12So whatever it is. And we've been we've been
- 59:14friends since I had like 30,000 followers.
- 59:17And I tell her, I said I'm trying to apply.
- 59:20I don't care about the blue check mark.
- 59:22The the real problem I have is with people still on my content.
- 59:26And now it's like weekly people see me like, hey man, you get a,
- 59:30you get a secondary account. I'm like, look, I'm going to
- 59:32tell you all this for the thousand time.
- 59:35I'm never going to get a backup account.
- 59:37My password is, I don't even remember it.
- 59:40It's that complicated. I'm never getting hacked.
- 59:43Nobody's ever going to steal my shit.
- 59:45I'm never get a backup account. But being verified, that's
- 59:48really what's most important because somebody can, I know
- 59:51like bear the voice. Now he has like 1.1 or 1.2
- 59:55million followers. His account got hacked about two
- 59:59years ago when he had a million followers and they actually held
- 1:00:03his account for ransom. They called him and told him he
- 1:00:07could pay X amount to get his account back so he was like you
- 1:00:11know the hell with you and he ended up starting over from
- 1:00:14scratch but they stole his account and was they were trying
- 1:00:17to sell it back to him. That's insane man.
- 1:00:20That's the only real. I don't care about it for clout
- 1:00:22or my ego. The only reason I want to be
- 1:00:25verified is because people constantly create different
- 1:00:29accounts with a different number behind their username saying
- 1:00:32it's me and it just it gets old. One of the the people around
- 1:00:38here in Louisiana that gets a lot of heat online is a lady in
- 1:00:42the bathroom. I'm sure you've seen her.
- 1:00:44She does dances and stuff. She's misspells the kind of like
- 1:00:49your bowl trick. You know, it's tge, it's a, you
- 1:00:52know. Just.
- 1:00:54Yes, for sure. I think she's awesome.
- 1:00:57I like watching her stuff. She's just she's great, but she
- 1:01:01gets all of that just heat and then you see, I'll go on TikTok
- 1:01:06and there's lady in the bathroom and then, you know, like all of
- 1:01:10these sub accounts that are just hijacked videos of hers.
- 1:01:15I've seen somewhere I've seen a hijacked video of yours too,
- 1:01:18Like it's like Austin Dennis under score one or something.
- 1:01:22You know it's. Just like I had a lot of fun
- 1:01:25with one guy, so one guy stole my account, which back then it
- 1:01:29wasn't that big of a deal. I think I have like, all right,
- 1:01:32maybe I just broke 100,000 followers and somebody stole my
- 1:01:35account. Somebody, seven people, seven or
- 1:01:38eight people texted that they go hey man, or DM me, hey, somebody
- 1:01:42stole your account. You got a backup account.
- 1:01:44I'm like, no, so I messaged the guy.
- 1:01:47And when you message somebody, it's different than common.
- 1:01:51Like they can't really report you.
- 1:01:53So I sell a lot of shit to that guy.
- 1:01:55And I said, look, I've done a lot to build this platform.
- 1:02:00Basically take this down or I'm going to halt your effing
- 1:02:05dreams. Yes, he still didn't take it
- 1:02:08down, but he never posted again. But he what they do is they they
- 1:02:13steal your they steal your name, they get to enough followers
- 1:02:17where they can monetize. Then they take your content this
- 1:02:19viral and they post your viral content the same as you did and
- 1:02:24they make money off of it. So, I mean, they might as well
- 1:02:28in my mind, it may sound like I'm going overboard, but they
- 1:02:33might as well be shoplifting in my mind.
- 1:02:35It's like you they. Are shoplifting, they're
- 1:02:38stealing everything that you did and that you worked for, though
- 1:02:41that would drive, that would piss me off, you know?
- 1:02:44Driving me crazy. I'd be mad.
- 1:02:46And you can tell on like TikTok and other platforms when you
- 1:02:49send somebody a message like that, which you could say when
- 1:02:53they read it and they read the messages.
- 1:02:56I don't know if they were American or Saudi Arabian or or
- 1:03:01Afghans. I don't know where they were
- 1:03:03from. But the message was clear.
- 1:03:05I, I told him a lot of shit that wasn't that I wouldn't tell to
- 1:03:09my mother. Yeah.
- 1:03:13Exactly exactly man that that's why I've tried to we've we've
- 1:03:19tried to get get blue checks everywhere would mean we pay for
- 1:03:22it and I don't I don't mind the reason that we do that it isn't
- 1:03:25for clout or any of. That it's insurance.
- 1:03:28It's insurance. That's exactly right.
- 1:03:30I sell it every day. Why the hell wouldn't I buy
- 1:03:32that? You.
- 1:03:33Know, and I do it on Facebook and and Instagram it's it's a
- 1:03:37it's to protect me and TikTok just doesn't offer that yet.
- 1:03:41Yeah, I've had trouble with Instagram because my the
- 1:03:44Instagram page is linked to a personal page.
- 1:03:47It's linked to Facebook. I tried to verify it.
- 1:03:50I don't don't have the right profile picture.
- 1:03:53It doesn't have a picture of me. It's just our logo and they
- 1:03:57wouldn't verify me. So it's like we're y'all are
- 1:04:00going to have to deal with Tiggy's mug for a little bit at
- 1:04:02some point here. We.
- 1:04:04Didn't do it on Instagram. My graphic designer.
- 1:04:06Make a good little cartoon character of you and you'll be
- 1:04:09good. That's all we got.
- 1:04:10That's all we need. Just something like that, A
- 1:04:13character. Term will work.
- 1:04:14Yeah. See, This is why I have Austin
- 1:04:17on tonight. We're going to talk a little
- 1:04:19shop while we're doing this stuff too.
- 1:04:21I don't know a lot, but I know a little bit.
- 1:04:24He knows a lot don't even you don't get to 1,000,000.
- 1:04:28Followers, I know what doesn't work.
- 1:04:30I know what doesn't work for sure.
- 1:04:31I can't tell you what doesn't work.
- 1:04:34I can tell you that too. I've learned a lot.
- 1:04:37I've learned a lot in the last three years.
- 1:04:39And I've thrown a lot of darts at the wall, just like boom,
- 1:04:43boom. Will this work?
- 1:04:44And it's like, no, no. No, but once you get enough
- 1:04:46data, you go man, this, this is what worked.
- 1:04:48This is what didn't work. And you keep doing what you're
- 1:04:52doing, but you do it and whatever.
- 1:04:54Yeah, that's exactly what that conversation with ChatGPT was
- 1:04:58like today. It got fascinating.
- 1:04:59I probably should have. Recorded Sorry you, you and your
- 1:05:05Rd. my girlfriend. I love her, man.
- 1:05:08Don't I love her? OK.
- 1:05:10She's beautiful, She's the only thing.
- 1:05:12I've ever dreamed of. I haven't named her yet.
- 1:05:14I still call her ChatGPT. But you can name them.
- 1:05:17You can't say chat GBTI want to change your.
- 1:05:19Name. OK, so while we're on the
- 1:05:20subject, if you could name her if, if she's been so great for
- 1:05:25you, what would you name her like if you had?
- 1:05:28I know you're married. I'm married too.
- 1:05:30What would you name her if it was like your fantasy?
- 1:05:33What would her name be? I don't have like, I don't have
- 1:05:37a fantasy necessarily, but the first name immediately that came
- 1:05:40to mind was Amber. I would name her Amber because I
- 1:05:43love 311 and Amber. Is the color.
- 1:05:47Of her energy she just brings me good chill vibes so I.
- 1:05:50Will call her. You don't know 3-11.
- 1:05:53Is that a man? Oh boy, yeah.
- 1:05:55We'll get in. Is that a man?
- 1:05:57Sorry, I was born in 88. What year were you born in 1960?
- 1:06:02Basically, yes, about 88. I'm 10 years older than you do.
- 1:06:08Yeah, you're. 36, I'm 30. Six.
- 1:06:11I was born in the 70s just like my boys, 311.
- 1:06:14I don't know, I I feel like in spirit we're the same age.
- 1:06:17A. Million percent we are.
- 1:06:20And out with somebody like man, that guy's the same age as me.
- 1:06:24Yeah, it's the beard. It's that sexy beard on you.
- 1:06:27And no, I mean you, you are, you're the demographic I'm
- 1:06:32trying to go after here, Austin. So I'm glad apparently, after
- 1:06:37all of my conversations with Amber today, I learned that my
- 1:06:42demographics are 35 to 55, baby. But really, you know, so you got
- 1:06:48to. Know them.
- 1:06:49Know what you're doing at. Least you know.
- 1:06:52Them a lot of people don't realize that people act like,
- 1:06:54because I do so much barbecue and I guess like the Cajun
- 1:06:59recipes and stuff that go along with the barbecue and like doing
- 1:07:02stuff in the kitchen too. My demographics have almost been
- 1:07:065050 since I started really when I started telling that the
- 1:07:11brands are like, that's crazy. And I'm like, I don't know, is
- 1:07:16it is that crazy? I don't know.
- 1:07:17I don't have anything to base it off of.
- 1:07:18What can I attribute that to? And they're like, no, that's
- 1:07:22really good. So even if it, it might be 56,
- 1:07:2644 or whatever, but it's, it's never like so teetered one way
- 1:07:31that it did it did it mess with brand?
- 1:07:33Because a lot of brands when you apply to do stuff with a like
- 1:07:37dilute trading or Doctor Pepper, all of those people, when you
- 1:07:42apply for it, they've already seen your content.
- 1:07:45Then they want you to put your application in and say what your
- 1:07:47demographic is, what's your male female ratio is?
- 1:07:51All that stuff goes into account.
- 1:07:54My agent's been like super helpful.
- 1:07:56She's so when I was, it's so funny, when I was negotiating
- 1:08:02for myself, which thank God, I have her now.
- 1:08:05But I mean, things that I would do a video for for like 500
- 1:08:09bucks, he's like, my God, you did a video for them for 500
- 1:08:13bucks? I'm like, I mean, it took me an
- 1:08:16hour. Like it took me an hour.
- 1:08:18I made 500 bucks an hour. And she's like, yeah, well, like
- 1:08:22that brand would have paid you like $7000 to do that video.
- 1:08:26And I'm like, OK, well, show me. And so when we first started our
- 1:08:32our little contract, it took about a month and a half.
- 1:08:36And me and my wife were talking one night.
- 1:08:38She's like, I don't know, man. I don't, I don't know if she's
- 1:08:41really pulling her weight. And she told me, she said it'll
- 1:08:43take me about a month or two and we'll get you going.
- 1:08:46And man, she was right. She's she's in her, she's in her
- 1:08:49late 20s. She lives in LA and she's very
- 1:08:52connected. She's at a very big agency and
- 1:08:55they're used to dealing with people from 100,000 followers to
- 1:09:0010 million followers or maybe even more than that.
- 1:09:03But I'm not a, I'm not a drop in the bucket of them.
- 1:09:06So they're used to dealing with that and they're all connected
- 1:09:08to all the big brands and they bring a lot of shit like the, I
- 1:09:12did the Doctor Pepper video a couple of weeks ago.
- 1:09:15I did the, the, the, the Walmart videos and stuff.
- 1:09:19And all of that is because I have an agent now.
- 1:09:21I could have never. So the problem is as a creator
- 1:09:24on social media, you can't get in one of those brands unless
- 1:09:27you have representation. So it's kind of a double edged
- 1:09:31sword. You got to pay a local mission.
- 1:09:34You got to give give me your 20% cut.
- 1:09:36But hey, the 20% cut ain't that bad.
- 1:09:39When you were talking 500 and she's like, well, you know, you
- 1:09:42should have been charging thousands.
- 1:09:44So it's like, OK. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:09:47Does she get that? Well, that's where those cut.
- 1:09:50That's where those percentages come in.
- 1:09:52And that's why where you and I would be like, well hell yeah,
- 1:09:55I'll do that for 500 bucks. It took me an hour to do that.
- 1:09:58I'll. Take 5. 100 bucks an hour,
- 1:10:00they're like no, no, no, you do that for 1000.
- 1:10:02That's so they get their little cut.
- 1:10:04I get it, I get it. They get their two or three 100
- 1:10:07bucks out of that thousand, we get our six or 700.
- 1:10:11Everybody wins. It's cool.
- 1:10:13Yeah, I'm willing to talk to her.
- 1:10:15Let's make it happen. Yeah, I would be like 7 or 8
- 1:10:19brand videos a month, but the first month after my son was
- 1:10:23born and I went full time doing that.
- 1:10:25So I told my wife I was like, you know, I'm going to do this
- 1:10:28full time. And she's like, Oh my God, are
- 1:10:29you kidding me? Like I just had a baby.
- 1:10:31Like I'm like, yeah, I mean, it'll be fine.
- 1:10:35And in my mind, I'm like, it'll be fine, but like, you better
- 1:10:37figure it out. I did, I did 18 brand videos
- 1:10:41that month and I've never done that many before, but it was
- 1:10:45just in my mind, it was like you have to do as much as you can do
- 1:10:49to make sure that she understands that this can
- 1:10:51happen. And, and, and we busted my ass.
- 1:10:55And when I say I did 18 brand videos, I mean I did 18 brand
- 1:10:58videos and I still did my normal contents.
- 1:11:01So instead of like just say that month had 3030 days in it, I did
- 1:11:0718 brand videos and I still probably posted 20 of my own
- 1:11:12videos outside. So you.
- 1:11:14Doubled. You had to double.
- 1:11:15Your 38 videos in a month, dude, I was, I was toast.
- 1:11:19And at the end of that month, though, my wife's like, you
- 1:11:22know, I, I think you, I think you can do it.
- 1:11:24And I'm like, yeah, me too. We're doing it.
- 1:11:30Yeah, we're doing it. We're riding this.
- 1:11:32Well, like I told you, I still, and you corrected me the other
- 1:11:36day at your house. I still think it took balls to
- 1:11:38do that to, to step out on that leap of faith, to jump out there
- 1:11:44and and go the you know, we're, we're going to make it, we're
- 1:11:46going to do this. It's in it's it's encouraging
- 1:11:49and it's good to hear as a content creator and you got to
- 1:11:53start thinking of yourself in that those terms.
- 1:11:56I think that's when the light switch happened for you.
- 1:11:59Like I'm not just, I like doing this.
- 1:12:02This is fun. I'm not going to lie to
- 1:12:04everybody. I'm an attention whore.
- 1:12:06I enjoy attention. It's just.
- 1:12:08It's just. The fact I kind of got a feeling
- 1:12:11Austin isn't too far from me and we just like a little old Pat in
- 1:12:15the back and like, you made me laugh and that that goes that
- 1:12:18that that's my love language, OK.
- 1:12:20Mine says, man, I'm a class clown.
- 1:12:22I'm not a, I'm not a affirmation.
- 1:12:24I'm not a affirmation seeker by anything.
- 1:12:27That's my wife. That's my wife's love language.
- 1:12:29I'm usually like, as far as like marriage goes, I'm kind of an
- 1:12:32acts of service guy. So like you do something around
- 1:12:35the house or you do something to help me.
- 1:12:37That's my love language. But I'm a I've been a class
- 1:12:41clown since I was born. Hell yeah, for sure.
- 1:12:44Do I want to make people laugh? And in my case now on social
- 1:12:50media, it's like, are people liking your content?
- 1:12:53That's my version of making them laugh.
- 1:12:56That's correct. So when?
- 1:12:57I look at it the. Same way it's like, OK cool, but
- 1:13:00if I have a week where all my videos are tanking, it's like
- 1:13:03man what am I doing wrong? But then I started realizing, so
- 1:13:07now I'm posting the four platforms and I might post a
- 1:13:11video to Instagram and it'll do 10,000 views and on TikTok it
- 1:13:17may do a million views. So then I, I finally got to the
- 1:13:21point when I was posted on all these platforms where I realized
- 1:13:24that even even if you feel like you made like really shitty
- 1:13:27content, it's all about the time, it's the algorithm and
- 1:13:31it's the platform. So it doesn't mean that you're
- 1:13:34doing a bad job of producing content.
- 1:13:37So now I don't like I told you all the last podcast episode, I
- 1:13:39don't really care. Like I put the content out that
- 1:13:42I know I'm good at. If it doesn't do good, that's
- 1:13:46fine. But like at the end of the day,
- 1:13:48it may go viral on one platform and the other platform that may
- 1:13:51tank. But you just got it.
- 1:13:53You just got to be consistent. Keep posting.
- 1:13:55And anybody out there that's that's looking to do content, I
- 1:13:58would encourage them to be introspective, understand if
- 1:14:03you're capable of it, because that's very important.
- 1:14:06Like I'll never be an astronaut where I'm not walking on the
- 1:14:08moon anytime soon. I would love to though, if
- 1:14:12you're, if, if you figure out that you could be a good content
- 1:14:15creator, keep working at it and do it.
- 1:14:18Just same thing was with you in the podcast, Like it's if you
- 1:14:21have the, if you have the, the niche to do it and you're very
- 1:14:25good at it, which I know you are keep doing it.
- 1:14:28But there's a lot of people out there that are, they're throwing
- 1:14:32shit at the wall to see if it sticks.
- 1:14:34You know what I mean? That that's just everybody can't
- 1:14:38go viral. And you know, I've been doing
- 1:14:40this and we talked about this in the last episode too.
- 1:14:43You don't go viral just because you have followers.
- 1:14:46That's not how the algorithm works.
- 1:14:48I don't get up. I don't get a step ahead of
- 1:14:50anybody. So I always have to be ahead of
- 1:14:53the game with my content. The way I post it, how I post
- 1:14:57it, it it never gets easier. No, I've discovered that as
- 1:15:02we're as we're going, it's almost like the more attention
- 1:15:05that you get, the harder it, it becomes a little bit.
- 1:15:10But some of that I too think it is part of you like, oh, I had
- 1:15:14this video in my case, you know, 25,000 views on a video is
- 1:15:19fantastic over here, you know, but eventually it's going to get
- 1:15:22bigger and bigger. But still that's a that's a
- 1:15:25that's a small football stadium. You know what I mean?
- 1:15:28Like that's crazy that that many people saw something that I did.
- 1:15:32Blows my mind. And we've had some that have
- 1:15:35gone bigger and bigger than that, you know, but it's you get
- 1:15:38one and I have the same same deal.
- 1:15:40You put one on Instagram, it gets on 1000 views.
- 1:15:44You put one on TikTok, it gets 250,000 views.
- 1:15:48No rhyme or reason. I can understand all the videos
- 1:15:53within 30 minutes of each other, same hashtag, same description.
- 1:15:58And it's just sometimes it picks it up, sometimes it doesn't.
- 1:16:01And so then so then you at this point I really post.
- 1:16:07I do post what I think will work, but I also post whatever I
- 1:16:10want to post. So I don't really, I don't bank
- 1:16:14on, you know, this is going to go really good.
- 1:16:16Like today I didn't know the beer cheese dip let's be little.
- 1:16:20I knew it wasn't going to be real good things was with me.
- 1:16:25I was I was I had an antibiotic experience.
- 1:16:28We were having fun. We were drinking beer and I
- 1:16:32tried and tried to edit that video to make it make it great.
- 1:16:36This wasn't great and I've. Never put it out though.
- 1:16:39I didn't put that sucker out. Because I had, I had to.
- 1:16:42I mean, that was, I felt like I worked hard for that.
- 1:16:45And then you did a video of a final recipe still in a pot, but
- 1:16:52I did. And we dipped that pretzel right
- 1:16:54in the skillet and that was how it was.
- 1:16:56And hey. It was good.
- 1:16:58I had some of it too. It was fantastic.
- 1:17:01I'm glad you liked it and me and you talked before we came home
- 1:17:05tonight. And it's the names, man.
- 1:17:08People don't realize that my dips aren't that complicated.
- 1:17:12There's nothing complex about it that you.
- 1:17:14Can't make Austin. I think that's what people love
- 1:17:17is that they are not like your dip that you did today.
- 1:17:21Screw you. If you're going to get on to me
- 1:17:23for buying cheddar cheese in a bag, I don't want to grate it.
- 1:17:27After your troubles the other day, I understand.
- 1:17:30Why would you? You know, you had a little bit
- 1:17:33of issues. And those videos like the last
- 1:17:35podcast, I'm telling you, like the Tri tip, awesome recipe, one
- 1:17:41of the best sandwiches I've ever made, if not the best sandwich.
- 1:17:45And then I'll make a dip today that probably cost me 12:50 and
- 1:17:52the difference and posted about the same time of day.
- 1:17:55The difference in the Tri tip video.
- 1:17:57I think it had gotten like 3000 views when we jumped on last
- 1:18:00time. And this dip video today, I
- 1:18:02don't know, it was like 40,000 on Instagram a couple hours and
- 1:18:06it's. Like I mean of.
- 1:18:08Course, and I know how Instagram's going to do.
- 1:18:10Instagram's a slow burn. Instagram's not going to 100,000
- 1:18:14views overnight. But if you get 30 or 40,000
- 1:18:17views on Instagram, yeah, it's going to get out in the next few
- 1:18:21days that that video is going to do a million plus.
- 1:18:24Well, it's well, it's a great time to drop that Austin on
- 1:18:27Thursday with college football and everything getting started,
- 1:18:34There's a there's a very, very strong chance that that dip will
- 1:18:39also because it was a great video.
- 1:18:41Y'all go check his stuff out. Austin Dennis 88 everywhere.
- 1:18:46Go check him out. That dip's definitely going to
- 1:18:49be made at Tiggy's house this weekend.
- 1:18:51But I'm going to kick it up and I'm going to make a little video
- 1:18:53with it. I'm not going all your video
- 1:18:57style, but I'm going to. I'll have something from it.
- 1:18:59I'm smoking. Briskets this weekend after you
- 1:19:02sent me that last video of the Turkey, I think you really
- 1:19:04should try to just dabble into doing a video here there.
- 1:19:06I think I think you have a better niche for it than you
- 1:19:09think. Oh, I want to do it.
- 1:19:11I love it, I really do. I mean it, but I don't want to.
- 1:19:14I also don't want to get cornered into like that's what's
- 1:19:17expected of me. I don't want to just do only
- 1:19:19cooking videos though. I'm the cook here at, at Tig's
- 1:19:23Bits here at the house. I am.
- 1:19:25I'm the cook. I cook a lot.
- 1:19:27I love to cook, you know? That's why you and I are a lot
- 1:19:29alike. It'll never, it'll never be like
- 1:19:32expected of you. What you'll find out is you
- 1:19:37don't know what you're good at. The Internet will tell you what
- 1:19:40you're good at. That's true.
- 1:19:41Just do it like you like. You do whatever they do it, do
- 1:19:44whatever they tell you to. OK.
- 1:19:46Yeah, work for that. Seems to be working.
- 1:19:49Speaking to someone, speaking to someone who told me what to do,
- 1:19:52and it flat out worked out for us.
- 1:19:56Texas hillbilly 88 with that $10 Venmo, That $10 Venmo, I saw
- 1:20:01that hillbilly. Sorry about that.
- 1:20:03Speaking of cones and donations and all, but we'll take that
- 1:20:07sucker, I promise you and appreciate it.
- 1:20:10I saw that just before my whole deal messed up and then, you
- 1:20:13know, sorry, I didn't. Get these, don't pay your bill.
- 1:20:17Yeah. That that, that $10, that $10 is
- 1:20:20going to go a long. Way next month's already getting
- 1:20:22paid? It's exactly right.
- 1:20:24We're going to pay it forward. But ladies and gentlemen,
- 1:20:27without any further ado, the one and the only Mr. John Costeca.
- 1:20:38John is in the house so always love it with Mr. Costeca.
- 1:20:44I was waiting on the phone on the screen.
- 1:20:45I'm like, damn, this guy's coming in.
- 1:20:47He's in the background. I wish he was coming in.
- 1:20:50He will be soon, John. John would John would come to
- 1:20:55Baton Rouge to have lunch with the Tigsbits crew, including
- 1:20:59Austin Dennis, of course. He is part of the Tigsbits crew
- 1:21:02now. Y'all got to get used to this.
- 1:21:04I think y'all will. Austin's going to be a regular
- 1:21:07Blacy and handler. Don't know that, but I don't
- 1:21:09think they have a problem with it.
- 1:21:11So I know they don't they're. Going to deal with it, talk too
- 1:21:14much. I'm I'm that guy.
- 1:21:18Look, they have their people that are right next door to them
- 1:21:22that they can go to the floor of Bama and get somebody or Blasey
- 1:21:26and Handler could get together if they wanted to.
- 1:21:29Blasey always has these guests. I don't have anybody besides my
- 1:21:33neighbors who kind of, I think they're, I keep calling their
- 1:21:37bluff and I've got a spot like right here and I have a place I
- 1:21:42could put another camera right here and we could just sit
- 1:21:47facing this way with different cameras, different camera angle.
- 1:21:50We could do it in studio, baby. We got to get the sky Cam too.
- 1:21:54We need the sky Cam to drop that.
- 1:21:55You know what I'm talking about. We're going to have the sky Cam.
- 1:21:57I'm going to get you over here and we're going to figure the
- 1:22:00camera situation out in this. Room, I'm coming to your 5000.
- 1:22:04I'm coming. Yeah, I know you are.
- 1:22:06And we're going to put something up there.
- 1:22:08The Sky Cam got a GoPro. We're going, yes, we're going to
- 1:22:11rig this out. We're going to Austin and I will
- 1:22:13start doing some of these live together chat.
- 1:22:16What do y'all think about that? I think y'all would like that.
- 1:22:20I know I'd like that. They would like it.
- 1:22:22All right, let's get down to business.
- 1:22:26Let's get down to this. Let's finally get down to
- 1:22:29business pregame. I love it.
- 1:22:33I knew I knew we would have no issues.
- 1:22:36Tonight I told, I told my wife. I was like, there's no time
- 1:22:38limit on this podcast. No time limit.
- 1:22:41I like to cut it to around an hour and a half, though I think
- 1:22:44that's just an hour is always the target for us.
- 1:22:48A 45, here's our window. OK.
- 1:22:50When we do our TV show, we try to keep it to 45 minutes.
- 1:22:55That didn't work out for our TV show.
- 1:22:59I had to break it into two parts.
- 1:23:00It was too good to to edit out. Like I couldn't edit an hour and
- 1:23:06a half down to 45 minutes and capture what the hell we talked
- 1:23:09about. So we did it in two parts.
- 1:23:11Can't make a habit of that. So we try to, we try to, you
- 1:23:15know, keep it to around 45 minutes when we do ATV show.
- 1:23:18Next week's big secret here, everybody, just so y'all know
- 1:23:23the Labor Day schedules around here, last week's Bubba, last
- 1:23:29week's Bubba show will be next week's TV show.
- 1:23:32So hope y'all don't get tired of seeing it.
- 1:23:35It was a good one with just me and Blasey, but it was 45
- 1:23:39minutes and it made it easy on your boy over here to chop that
- 1:23:43up and cut that into some commercials and stuff.
- 1:23:46And then probably the following week after that, it's going to
- 1:23:49be this week's Bubba show, which does have Jr. the Handler,
- 1:23:54Blasey and myself. We recorded that little thing on
- 1:23:57Monday. But it's a good show.
- 1:24:00I think everybody will enjoy it. It's just nothing.
- 1:24:02It's all Evergreen content that we.
- 1:24:04Talked about so I can interject when I did the show with Jr. and
- 1:24:09Blasey, I've never talked to them before and they're Alabama
- 1:24:13fans and I, like Jr. could not believe it because James left it
- 1:24:18open. We did not get to get acquainted
- 1:24:20together before. And I straight up was like,
- 1:24:23yeah, I don't give a shit about Alabama fans and, and I'm not
- 1:24:29up. Somebody came to my door during
- 1:24:30the podcast and I got up and left the room and I didn't see
- 1:24:34it back until after it was already out.
- 1:24:36And they are. It's like, man seems like a good
- 1:24:39guy, but I'll never eat anything he cooks and then I'm done.
- 1:24:43We were having quite a good time.
- 1:24:45And he did not like when I said that because he didn't know.
- 1:24:49He he, I think he was an LSU fan.
- 1:24:52He did. I hit when I hit him with that
- 1:24:54Tigs was like, Oh my God, I'm so glad this came out.
- 1:24:58But it's so much more fun when it comes out organically like
- 1:25:01that. And dude, I was dude, when I,
- 1:25:04when I listen to that back, I was literally crying laughing
- 1:25:09because he said, man, it seems like good enough fella, but I'll
- 1:25:11never eat anything cooked. We're going to change his mind
- 1:25:16on that for sure. Look, it's like somebody said
- 1:25:19today, our boy WSFMP, Mr. Widespread Panic himself,
- 1:25:24Fontaine, Auburn guy, he's going to Auburn game this weekend.
- 1:25:29He said. Man, I thought Jr. he was in the
- 1:25:31Bubba chat this morning. I was in.
- 1:25:33He goes. Man, I thought Jr. graduated
- 1:25:35from Troy. He's also, he's one of them
- 1:25:37Alabama people. Claims that too, just like
- 1:25:40everybody else in the whole state that didn't go there.
- 1:25:43Yeah, yeah, I love. It so when Blasey asked me, when
- 1:25:49he knew, when he asked me, you know, because you're not an an
- 1:25:53Alabama fan, you're you're a Troy Trojan.
- 1:25:55He knew I was an Auburn fan, right?
- 1:25:59I don't know him enough to know if that's what he meant, but he
- 1:26:01was like. No, no, no, he, he, he, no, he a
- 1:26:04million percent, yes. No, he a million percent did
- 1:26:07that. So when we do little bits of
- 1:26:08controversy, we like to ask some questions.
- 1:26:12So yeah, I think he already had. Are you in Alabama or?
- 1:26:15I don't think I know. I don't know if he knew that you
- 1:26:17were from Alabama prior to that. I did, but I don't know if he
- 1:26:21did. And so I think what he uncovered
- 1:26:24that and that's why he went the Troy angle, because he's
- 1:26:27actually, Blasey is not an Alabama fan.
- 1:26:31I don't think he's a hater, but he's not a he's he's he's a Troy
- 1:26:35fan through and through. Make no bones about.
- 1:26:38It. He's a group of five guy.
- 1:26:41He will fight you to the end over it just like those guys
- 1:26:44will. Shout out to the group of five
- 1:26:46guys. Love them.
- 1:26:49We didn't do what we had talked about doing this summer, which
- 1:26:51was have a little, have a group of five guys.
- 1:26:54There's a guy here in Baton Rouge, Ays Blake Ruffino.
- 1:26:59You probably don't ever see him because you're not an LSU fan,
- 1:27:01but he does. He does LSU stuff.
- 1:27:04He's awesome. We all talked about having a
- 1:27:07show this summer and then flat out it just never happened.
- 1:27:10You know how it goes. But and now they're busy doing
- 1:27:13doing their stuff. We go, we're going to leave
- 1:27:15college football to the experts, but you're going to get the bar
- 1:27:20room point of view over. Here, everybody's an expert, you
- 1:27:23know what I mean? Like everybody's an expert.
- 1:27:25Whoever you pull for you, you know what's going to happen.
- 1:27:28Nobody else does. We're all biased and we know
- 1:27:31what's going. The season is going to be
- 1:27:33exactly how we picture it until it doesn't happen.
- 1:27:37And it could be week one if you're Florida State.
- 1:27:40So that brings us right in. We're caught up now, Week one
- 1:27:44now of football Week 0. Florida State loses to Georgia
- 1:27:49Tech and that's really the only meaningful game tonight.
- 1:27:53We have North Carolina at Minnesota.
- 1:27:56I think it has kicked off. I think it was supposed, I think
- 1:27:59it was delayed till 8. So it's probably going on right
- 1:28:02now. So that that should be fun.
- 1:28:05I have no idea about either school, but you got Mack Brown,
- 1:28:08you've got our, you've got Max Johnson.
- 1:28:12Who's going to be the game? I think it could be a good game
- 1:28:16if Minnesota's still rowing the boat.
- 1:28:18Who is that still Minnesota and who in North?
- 1:28:21Carolina. The Tar Heels.
- 1:28:23I know that was the night. I'm going to turn it.
- 1:28:25On and right now. I'll I'll give you live updates.
- 1:28:28I'm going to turn it on with that bottom.
- 1:28:31See you Brian. See you Brian, he says.
- 1:28:33Have a great weekend. We'll see y'all next week.
- 1:28:36Appreciate you, Brian. Thanks for.
- 1:28:37Coming, Iggy. Iggy is in the house.
- 1:28:39What is up? Iggy says everybody's an.
- 1:28:42Expert until they're not. That is correct.
- 1:28:45It is correct. I have no, I have no, I look the
- 1:28:49only, the only take that I have is on my tigers, My tigers, not
- 1:28:54yours. Your tigers aren't going to have
- 1:28:57any issues this weekend. So nothing to worry.
- 1:29:01Nothing to worry about that they're not even on my list.
- 1:29:03They're notables. We we donated a lot of money to
- 1:29:06them. That's right here.
- 1:29:08Here are the notables. Tonight.
- 1:29:09You have North Carolina and Minnesota, you have Murray
- 1:29:14State, Mizzou, I think that's on the SEC Network.
- 1:29:18And then you have Arkansas, Pine Bluff versus Arkansas.
- 1:29:21So two of those. Three aren't good.
- 1:29:25That's actually a good game. That's actually, I know that
- 1:29:28that has that it's on Fox so. You you know how I blame it on
- 1:29:32Siri? I asked Siri today.
- 1:29:34I said, who's playing college football today?
- 1:29:36And she told me all these terrible games and I was like,
- 1:29:38OK, I don't care watching it does.
- 1:29:40And then when you said that, I'm like, God damn, I so it's,
- 1:29:43that's the first quarter, it's like 4 minutes left.
- 1:29:45Look, we're watching. There it is.
- 1:29:49There we got. It.
- 1:29:50We got it on. I love it dude, it's so good
- 1:29:52there's. College football, right Six.
- 1:29:55Do what? We're staying for a little
- 1:29:57while, right? Heck yeah, heck y'all chat y'all
- 1:30:00down with this? I may have, I may have to.
- 1:30:03Minute whiz. Well, that there you go.
- 1:30:06Good, because whenever he gets back, your boy, your boy did not
- 1:30:10have an emergency I'll. Co host when I come back.
- 1:30:13They're perfect. So he already knows.
- 1:30:15He already knows your boy. We're we'll leave his screen up
- 1:30:18so we can see the game. Your boy over here did not have
- 1:30:23the opportunity to take that whiz in the Internet panic, but
- 1:30:28we made it. We made it.
- 1:30:30So, yeah, there's some big games this weekend happening and we'll
- 1:30:33get into more of that. But tonight, Murray State,
- 1:30:35Mizzou, no big deal on that one. We'll see if Mizzou can rack up
- 1:30:40a ton of points. I'm sure that one's live
- 1:30:43Arkansas and Pine Bluff. Hopefully old cold beer can
- 1:30:46handle that for Justin Moore and and the Arkansas Razorback fans.
- 1:30:53Quick question, want to throw this out.
- 1:30:55Paul, I know that you'll answer this and anybody else who else
- 1:30:59is a Justin Moore fan? His his latest songs that he's
- 1:31:04been coming out with like this is my dirt.
- 1:31:07His song with Randy Howser. These songs are incredible, man.
- 1:31:11I think he's doing some of his best work.
- 1:31:13And I'm not saying that because I mean out y'all would just
- 1:31:16think I was saying that if if Jr. was in here and I'm not I, I
- 1:31:22I can't get this is my dirt out of my head.
- 1:31:24I just flat out can't and and just I'm kind of missing Jr.
- 1:31:29tonight, to be honest with you. But what is y'all's favorite
- 1:31:31Justin Moore song, if any of y'all are huge fans?
- 1:31:34I know Paul is. I think I know Paul's favorite.
- 1:31:40Oh, look who we got. We got Mr. Brant.
- 1:31:42Marshall Bug is in the house, ladies and gentlemen,
- 1:31:47interesting story with Mr. Bug. He has purchased some nice, nice
- 1:31:52stereo, stereo mic equipment, podcasting equipment, and he'll
- 1:31:59be set up probably coming back in next week and he's going to
- 1:32:03be kind of a fixture on these lives too.
- 1:32:06So looking forward to that bug. Had something come up too
- 1:32:10unbelievable that we even got a show off tonight, y'all would
- 1:32:13have been stuck with me by yourselves.
- 1:32:16That would have been terrible. It wouldn't have been terrible,
- 1:32:18but we wouldn't have gone this long.
- 1:32:20I can definitely, definitely tell you that.
- 1:32:24I go pay brother. All right, I will.

- 1:32:44the weekend, that's awesome. Monday's obviously a holiday for
- 1:32:47everybody, but I encourage getting an Uber.
- 1:32:52Don't drag and drive. Don't be a weirdo.
- 1:32:59Who got a chat. We got Paul Rodgers and Justin
- 1:33:01Moore. I'm not familiar with his music.
- 1:33:05I'll check it out tonight. I don't know how you're talking
- 1:33:07about Blasey. Help me.
- 1:33:09What are you happy with? What are you happy with?
- 1:33:14I think I could say all the comments, man.
- 1:33:16I don't know. I'm new here.
- 1:33:19Let's get back up and write some.
- 1:33:21You as well, Iggy. Can y'all tell how many people
- 1:33:25are in the chat? Like, I have no idea if there
- 1:33:27could be five people in there, it could be 500 people.
- 1:33:30I have no fucking effing clue. Sorry I didn't bleed myself out.
- 1:33:38Blasey for you, buddy. That Miller's buddy.
- 1:33:43You got to do one thing, brother 11.
- 1:33:47There's eleven people in here. Hell yeah.
- 1:33:49That's amazing. Really killing it.
- 1:33:55But that's all right. We've been on for a while.
- 1:33:57Hey, man, that was good. You locked your hands.
- 1:33:59I did not. I hand sanitized them though,
- 1:34:04does that count? Yeah, that works.
- 1:34:07All right, good. This is a, let's see, All right,
- 1:34:11Texas Hillbilly Summit. I threw out the question.
- 1:34:14I'll ask you this Austin favorite Justin Moore song.
- 1:34:19Redneck side. There you go all.
- 1:34:23Right, I can't hide my redness. There it is.
- 1:34:29Because that song literally, it's really I like a bunch of
- 1:34:32his music, but that song literally is me to AT like it's
- 1:34:39perfectly now that I'm married to a a classy lady, like dude,
- 1:34:42I'm that's me. She is a classy.
- 1:34:45Lady Fool at 2:00 AM. Like yeah, but.
- 1:34:50It is you I love that I love that man I I don't I don't know
- 1:34:54what my favorite. It's hard for me.
- 1:34:57That's what I was telling them is this is my dirt is his new
- 1:35:01one of his newest songs, but my God, I love it.
- 1:35:04I just love that song. I heard.
- 1:35:06I got to be on stage with him and hear him play it live and
- 1:35:11just be right there. And I mean, it's just that's
- 1:35:14everything that. I think Small Town USA would be
- 1:35:18a close second. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:35:21I mean, every, everybody knows that song.
- 1:35:24Even if you don't like Justin Moore, like everybody knows that
- 1:35:27song. Nobody knows that one.
- 1:35:29And and that's why you drink. Everybody knows that song.
- 1:35:32I mean, I've got to say that's that has to be his biggest, his
- 1:35:35biggest hit. What's that why we drink?
- 1:35:39I'm trying to think of the song name Midnight in Albuquerque.
- 1:35:46Drunk again on a little while. What's that song?
- 1:35:52Paul will know it. Paul will know it.
- 1:35:56But yeah, Justin Moore, man, Unreal.
- 1:36:00Love that dude. Nice guy.
- 1:36:02He's one of us, too. You got to meet him.
- 1:36:06Yeah, I've met him and he's coming on.
- 1:36:08He's going to come on the show here at some point.
- 1:36:10We've kind of held out for a long time with him.
- 1:36:13Like that's we know we got that guest, you know, like.
- 1:36:18Yeah. That's a given, but funny thing
- 1:36:22and never mentioned. And since Blasey isn't here and
- 1:36:25I might as well tell this a little inside Iggy for you Bubba
- 1:36:30Army folks out there tonight. So first time I met Justin
- 1:36:35Moore, Jr. had set up Jr. and somehow or another, I think Jr.
- 1:36:43pretty this is what happened. Jr. told Justin that we were
- 1:36:46going to do a podcast and it was like post show.
- 1:36:49It was after show and Justin was like, OK, whatever, you know,
- 1:36:53'cause once they, they do these shows and all you're wired like
- 1:36:56you've gone, I've been with them.
- 1:36:57So like you're wide open at the end of that show.
- 1:37:00It's just like you like at the end of this show, I can't just
- 1:37:04go to sleep and wind down. Just we've been talking and
- 1:37:06moving. It takes a little bit of little
- 1:37:08time to unwind. It'll take me four or five years
- 1:37:10to get a sleep. Exactly.
- 1:37:12But you'll find your way there. Same thing.
- 1:37:14So he was going to take his time, which is the most valuable
- 1:37:18asset that he has to spend it with us.
- 1:37:21Somehow another Jr. had convinced him of this.
- 1:37:23So unbeknownst to the rest of us that this was an A podcast that
- 1:37:30we were recording a podcast. It was recorded just to have
- 1:37:34some general recordings. But they had Jr. sent out this
- 1:37:37group text to everybody, like all of his fraternity brothers
- 1:37:42that that that Blasey and and he were in to come and jump in this
- 1:37:47thing. And we're just hanging out.
- 1:37:49Thought it was like what we're doing, but not really for
- 1:37:51everybody else to see. That thing went off the rails
- 1:37:56bro. I mean it's so bad.
- 1:37:59Like it was not even if. There's that's the best, that's
- 1:38:02the best time. There's it's unrecoverable as
- 1:38:06far as like anybody could listen to it.
- 1:38:08It's the audio. So up and down and bad.
- 1:38:11Like I had to get with Riverside.
- 1:38:14We wanted it so bad. So here's what happens with
- 1:38:16Riverside. If you shut it down and you just
- 1:38:19slam it down and you think that it's going to, you know, just
- 1:38:22stop it, it just stops recording.
- 1:38:25You can log back in and it'll upload, finish uploading and all
- 1:38:29that. Jr. did what we just did.
- 1:38:33He went out, took a whiz and and and Justin and I are talking and
- 1:38:38we were, we got into football and we were having a good
- 1:38:41conversation. Here's a big Razorback.
- 1:38:43Thing I know he hates, hates LSU.
- 1:38:47Like that's he. He hates LSU.
- 1:38:50But. He's married to a he's married
- 1:38:51to a girl from Louisiana. So I, I mean, he has to live
- 1:38:55with that. Same with Jr.
- 1:38:57To a girl from Louisiana. Yes, he is a girl from Houma,
- 1:38:59LA, just like just like JRJR and but they didn't know this
- 1:39:05before. And I think the girls do know
- 1:39:07each other, but I don't they didn't before like crazy that
- 1:39:11that's how that whole world ended up.
- 1:39:12We'll let Jr. explain explain all that.
- 1:39:15But we're on this, doing this podcast, which was not a podcast
- 1:39:19at all with Justin Moore. And we're sitting there and
- 1:39:24we're just enjoying it. He and I started talking, got
- 1:39:27started getting a little heated, but in a fun way, like we're
- 1:39:30just razzing each other. Not no, there was no ill will
- 1:39:34whatsoever. We're just.
- 1:39:35My big abuse of Risen Risen. Risen, we're razzing each.
- 1:39:39Other Risen. Risen What?
- 1:39:42Well, the the kids say Risen is like when you're swooned at a
- 1:39:45lady. Oh, that's when you riz, that's
- 1:39:47when. You, yeah.
- 1:39:49We were razzing. We were razzing.
- 1:39:53So we're just going off and somehow or another Joe, he he,
- 1:39:57he started to go in and I still remember where it ended.
- 1:40:00He's like, yeah, but that Joe Burrow is a.
- 1:40:03And then bam, ended. That was the end of that.
- 1:40:07And you know, I was about to come through the screen on the
- 1:40:10other side, but it wasn't like. We were having fun, like, yeah,
- 1:40:14really we were having. Fun.
- 1:40:15So how tall is Justin in real life?
- 1:40:18Do what? How tall is Justin in real?
- 1:40:20Life. He's not real tall, man.
- 1:40:22Like 5-7. On a good day, probably, yeah.
- 1:40:26Yeah. Really.
- 1:40:27Yeah, yeah. I mean, I'm not being me.
- 1:40:30Any day. He's not.
- 1:40:30No. I mean his heights.
- 1:40:32I mean, you could look at the pictures.
- 1:40:34Yeah. About the politics.
- 1:40:35No, it's not my fault. I mean, you and Jr. you're a
- 1:40:38little taller than JRJRS, probably 6-1.
- 1:40:41You said you're 62. I believe that.
- 1:40:43Yeah. You're a big old boy.
- 1:40:46No, I mean, there's not a lot of times that I take pictures with
- 1:40:49somebody and I'm taller than them.
- 1:40:51Honestly, I. Mean I'm not.
- 1:40:52Sure, but I'm 511 five. I'm 510.
- 1:40:55Who are we kidding? But I'm 511 with Hocus.
- 1:40:59Much taller though Justin Moore in those pictures.
- 1:41:02Paul Rogers, Do you know Rob? Yeah.
- 1:41:04I love Robbie Green. Riley.
- 1:41:06Green. So if I had to pick five artists
- 1:41:09right now, I would go. I'd probably go Luke Combs, Zach
- 1:41:14Top. Damn, dude, Zach Top.
- 1:41:18I love he. You were playing Zach Top when I
- 1:41:20pulled up to your house the other day.
- 1:41:22I went there. You go.
- 1:41:23Deb, you listened to Gavin Adcock yet?
- 1:41:26I did. I listened to it the day in the
- 1:41:28truck. Yeah, I like, I like it a lot.
- 1:41:30I just haven't afforded enough. It takes me like, I don't know,
- 1:41:33like 25 beers and then I like it.
- 1:41:36But you. Got to relate.
- 1:41:39Yeah, so like Justin Moore always on the radio, somebody
- 1:41:44that no, no one remembers, that's got really good music,
- 1:41:49especially his old album, Chris Young.
- 1:41:51Love Chris Young. Oh yeah.
- 1:41:54That neon album that is pure gold.
- 1:41:59So Riley Green, Luke Combs, Chris Young, Garth Brooks.
- 1:42:04That's usually what's playing on my radio.
- 1:42:06I've come around to the the Morgan Wallin movement.
- 1:42:10I don't really give two shits about the walk up and all the
- 1:42:16hype behind that, but you know, he's.
- 1:42:18Going on stage. Yeah, I just all that stuff kind
- 1:42:21of ruins it for me. And I get it.
- 1:42:24He's doing. Social media content.
- 1:42:26Yeah, it's entertainment and I get the like the people that
- 1:42:28want to see him like that, but that, that, that stuff is what
- 1:42:32ruins it for me. I just, I really don't care.
- 1:42:34I don't care what he's doing. And it took me so long to like
- 1:42:39it. So if anything is mainstream and
- 1:42:42anything is trending, you will find me not liking it for a very
- 1:42:47long time. I'm not a, I'm not a trendy guy
- 1:42:50and as, as, as ironic as that is, like I need to be trendy,
- 1:42:55but deep down inside my soul, music and everything else, I, I
- 1:42:59just, I don't really care about trends.
- 1:43:01Yeah, you know, I'm I'm no, I'm the same way.
- 1:43:04Don't give me pop stuff like Zach Top, not Pop, but he's
- 1:43:08about to be pop like he's he's. Going to be pop.
- 1:43:11He's going to be pop. He isn't going to pee pop.
- 1:43:14You're just going to hear his stuff so much that you're going
- 1:43:17to start to associate that he's pop in about six months.
- 1:43:20He ain't pop. He's not pop whatsoever.
- 1:43:23He's going to be turned into the new Pop that.
- 1:43:25Would be country music me what a good example of someone that's
- 1:43:29like really talented and probably one of the best in the
- 1:43:32business that I do not want to hear one more song from is Chris
- 1:43:35Stapleton. When Chris Stapleton came out, I
- 1:43:39couldn't get enough of his music.
- 1:43:40And now when I hear it, I've heard everything.
- 1:43:44Every song's the same to me. And Jelly Roll.
- 1:43:47I told my wife the other day, I'm I'm riding the car.
- 1:43:51I'm telling y'all, this is an effing true story.
- 1:43:54I'm riding the car. I was feeling pretty good, like
- 1:43:57there was content that day. Whatever, whatever we're doing,
- 1:43:59we're going to the post office. I think I literally was going to
- 1:44:02the post office to deliver some more and that song by Jelly
- 1:44:07Roll, I'm Not OK came on and I kind of immediately started.
- 1:44:13I kind of immediately started feeling depressed.
- 1:44:16And I'm like, you know, that's kind of has his music stranding
- 1:44:21and I'm not super excited about listening.
- 1:44:25Like if it's a country, if it's a real country song and it's
- 1:44:29about like life and all that. Like I can get into that.
- 1:44:32Like Zach Top. If yeah, if I'm in a good mood
- 1:44:36and I listen to your song for 35 seconds and I'm in a depressed
- 1:44:40mood, I can't listen to you anymore, man.
- 1:44:43I think you're great. I think you're a millionaire.
- 1:44:46I think you're doing really good.
- 1:44:47But you don't need me and I don't want to feel depressed.
- 1:44:52That's right. Now I'm the same way, dude.
- 1:44:54I'm the same way. I have to have poppy music.
- 1:44:57Not poppy music, just happy. Music Little Taylor Swift Eras
- 1:45:01Tour, is that what you got? I ain't afraid of Taylor.
- 1:45:03Not at all. My daughter is a huge Taylor
- 1:45:06Swift fan. I'm a Swifty.
- 1:45:08They don't think so. I just.
- 1:45:10I still don't get it. I don't know why it's.
- 1:45:12So I don't get why you would pay that.
- 1:45:14I don't know why it's so unbelievable.
- 1:45:17What, like what Garth Brooks was doing in the 90s, that was
- 1:45:20unbelievable. What Taylor's doing is, I mean,
- 1:45:25in five years when she's 40, like, what do we do?
- 1:45:28Like is she still going to be singing to no?
- 1:45:3217. Year old girls and 14 year old
- 1:45:34girls. You know who the model is for
- 1:45:36that to see if you want to know the answers, you just look back
- 1:45:39in history. Madonna, go back and look, she
- 1:45:41ain't going to be doing the same stuff, but she will always like
- 1:45:45she's in her eras era, because this is her prime.
- 1:45:50This is her. She's in her Kelsey era.
- 1:45:53She is literally in her prime. I mean she's in her prime of I
- 1:45:58think as big as she's ever going to get, as hot as she's going to
- 1:46:01get. Like as far as money wise, not
- 1:46:04looks. I'm talking money pop all.
- 1:46:07Of it, it ain't, it ain't stuff, it ain't from my end, it's not
- 1:46:11from looks. She's not the best singer
- 1:46:14honestly. Like.
- 1:46:15She's but she's a hell of a song.
- 1:46:16I don't mean that. Like obviously I Can't Sing, so
- 1:46:19I'm not being, I don't want to sound like the same people that,
- 1:46:22that are derogatory towards me and my, my cooking content and
- 1:46:25post comments that are so negative.
- 1:46:28The thing is, is like there's so many good musicians.
- 1:46:33I don't think Taylor's in the top 50 of singers, performers.
- 1:46:40I mean, she's on the top five, there's no doubt.
- 1:46:42Well, that's where and that's where she gets it.
- 1:46:45I mean, that's where the the deal comes in because there's no
- 1:46:48doubt her live performances are phenomenal.
- 1:46:52I mean, I've watched some of the some of the concerts and just
- 1:46:55all the, I mean the production value, everything.
- 1:46:58That goes into. That it's ridiculous.
- 1:47:03Oh, I want to be there so bad. I want anybody have tickets to
- 1:47:07the Superdome? You want to make Tiggy happy?
- 1:47:10I need 2/1 for me and one for my daughter and I want to.
- 1:47:16Go the Superdome is one of like that was 74 I think was when it
- 1:47:22was built. It's insane that they've
- 1:47:25adjusted and renovated that place to be able to figure out
- 1:47:28how to make it still a state-of-the-art venue.
- 1:47:32But it's, it's, it's a, they do really good with it.
- 1:47:35Like the, the way they've renovated it.
- 1:47:37It's, and last year was the first game I'd ever gone to.
- 1:47:40I went to the Saints Detroit game and man, the Superdome, it
- 1:47:47ain't no scratch, man. It, it was a funny thing, man.
- 1:47:50The, the flow of it, the way they've done it for an old
- 1:47:53stadium like that, it didn't seem old.
- 1:47:58No. And that's the thing, the way
- 1:47:58they designed. Yeah, the parking is old and
- 1:48:01everything around. It is.
- 1:48:03The inside's amazing, yeah. It's all.
- 1:48:06The inside is amazing for sure, Brant Marshall AKA Bug says.
- 1:48:11Do you listen to Paul Coffin? I don't know who that is.
- 1:48:16Cocaine Cowboys. So there's a You'll like him,
- 1:48:20you'll like Paul. What's the name of that song?
- 1:48:22Brant. Give it to us, Travis.
- 1:48:25Travis Baker says Alex Key has some good tunes similar to Zach
- 1:48:29Top. We need to check him out for
- 1:48:32sure. And check out some of that T
- 1:48:35birds too, while you're out there.
- 1:48:37Some of that T birds. T Birds.
- 1:48:40Is. The truth, it is the truth.
- 1:48:43And then and then Paul says Brian Frazier.
- 1:48:45Brian Frazier kicks ass, that's for sure.
- 1:48:48Just look, that's what's so fun about doing this stuff is you
- 1:48:53get folks in the in the chat that are throwing out names.
- 1:48:56You don't know all these people, but it gives you homework to go
- 1:48:59back and do. That's part of the fun of this
- 1:49:00show for me is the stuff that, and there's no doubt 100% my
- 1:49:07favorite time of doing this show and it's turned into it this
- 1:49:11year. And we started this in December
- 1:49:14of last year. Just kind of like, let's try it
- 1:49:16and see what happens is the lives.
- 1:49:19I mean, our entire podcast is really like our podcast.
- 1:49:22It goes out on Apple, Spotify, Amazon.
- 1:49:25The audio versions of this podcast come from the lives
- 1:49:30primarily now and it it, but it's the funnest part because we
- 1:49:34get to interact with people. Yeah, same thing for me.
- 1:49:38Like I, I, I'm trying to get better on the YouTube side of
- 1:49:41it. We've we've kind of been trying
- 1:49:43to push that for the last few months.
- 1:49:44So, but yeah, man, it seems. Hard, isn't it?
- 1:49:49Like it's hard. To like, so in perspective to
- 1:49:54how I feel about it, social media is like the the steer.
- 1:49:58I've never roped and I'm not a steer Roper like so I'm just
- 1:50:02constantly over here basically. I might as well be throwing a
- 1:50:07damn paper football trying to do it.
- 1:50:10But we figured out a little bit of time.
- 1:50:12But yeah, YouTube's a whole nother animal YouTube page
- 1:50:15really good. If I had the same following on
- 1:50:19YouTube as I have on TikTok, I'd be in a lot better shape.
- 1:50:23Yeah, it's just, it's just everything's different.
- 1:50:26So I could post this like we talked about before we got on
- 1:50:29the show today. I I could post the same content
- 1:50:32on TikTok and they can do 5 million views.
- 1:50:34I post it on on on YouTube and it gets 10,000 views.
- 1:50:38So I don't know, it's, it's just I'm, I'm trying to figure it
- 1:50:42out. But you know, now I post all my
- 1:50:44content everywhere but. That's what we started doing
- 1:50:50kind of from the jump. I thought it was like, I think
- 1:50:53you can grow faster if you're concentrating on one platform,
- 1:50:57one or two platforms and really trying to grow it.
- 1:50:59But I said, look, you know, whatever, whatever the term is
- 1:51:05of the ocean that all things rise or whatever, you just keep
- 1:51:08chunking stuff in there. And I'm like, let's just, I, I
- 1:51:12know at the end of the day, what would be the most beneficial
- 1:51:15thing for us is if we could grow our YouTube.
- 1:51:18And yeah, post to every one of them.
- 1:51:20And you know when they get to the point where you'll know
- 1:51:24which one needs more attention, But post to all of them because
- 1:51:28they're out. Yeah.
- 1:51:29Oh yeah. No, no, no.
- 1:51:30We're going to put we post to all of them.
- 1:51:32What I think I've gotten better at thanks to Amber today is
- 1:51:37understanding a little bit more of the demographics and kind of
- 1:51:40what I need to do in certain and and lately what we need to do in
- 1:51:45different social medias. Try to to make it a little bit
- 1:51:48more yeah, exclusive to that to that platform.
- 1:51:53Even if we're repurposing the content, it's the same video,
- 1:51:58come back with some kind of a different angle or whatever that
- 1:52:01that works different. We've been trying to do a little
- 1:52:03bit of that and it seems to be, it seems to be working.
- 1:52:07Brandt says. Boog says freak like me with
- 1:52:10Paul Catherine. Besides the cocaine song and.
- 1:52:15And then of course, well, I know you know this one.
- 1:52:17Yeah, I know. You know Keith Frank's haters,
- 1:52:20which, you know, with Boosie, you know this.
- 1:52:24Yeah. OK, just make it.
- 1:52:26Just do. You I I get the reference.
- 1:52:28I'm not. I'm slow, but not that slow.
- 1:52:31OK. And then they need you to come
- 1:52:34to a tailgate. If not, you do need to come to a
- 1:52:36tailgate this year, by the way. Great and and so also anybody in
- 1:52:40here check it out? So LSU Alabama this year we're
- 1:52:44doing an I cook you look tailgate.
- 1:52:46Let y'all know where it's going to be exactly.
- 1:52:48Obviously Tigs, you got to come. Oh, I love it.
- 1:52:53We're going to do, we're going to get pit balls involved.
- 1:52:56We're going to get out the real grill all day.

- 1:53:15Podcast Baby. I've I've got all my stuff like
- 1:53:18I. Talked about and maybe we do
- 1:53:20like a little remote one hour podcast while we're doing it.
- 1:53:23That would be amazing if during the, I think we got a shot if
- 1:53:27it's at like 1:00 or 2:00 in the afternoon.
- 1:53:29Whenever we're doing it. No, it has zero chance.
- 1:53:34Not at even at 1:00 or 2:00. It's got you.
- 1:53:36Like if you're not on campus for LSU, Alabama by 8:00 AM, then
- 1:53:40it's not that you're too late, it's that you can't park.
- 1:53:43Yeah. Like that day that's that'll be
- 1:53:46as big of a day in the South as there is.
- 1:53:48I remember I wanted the tailgate for the Alabama LSU game in like
- 1:53:512014 and I saw the people in the tents like right when you cross
- 1:53:57Burbank from walk ONS right there.
- 1:54:00And we sat up there at like 5:00 in the morning and got her stuff
- 1:54:05set up. And then people will get out of
- 1:54:07chance Bama fans, and they're brushing their teeth.
- 1:54:10And I'm like, they got the bottle of water and they're
- 1:54:13brushing your teeth. I'm like.
- 1:54:13Man. Crazy.
- 1:54:16Yeah, they're too. I'm like, this is crazy.
- 1:54:19Like, like, obviously I've gone to some big games.
- 1:54:23Like I've seen Auburn play Georgia at home or LSU or
- 1:54:27whatever big game, and it's just different.
- 1:54:30Like, people stay in hotels, people, people stay in hotels,
- 1:54:34Tigs. And yeah, people coming out of
- 1:54:37tents and they're just brushing their teeth on birthday and
- 1:54:43like, what's happening? It's just my favorite.
- 1:54:46It's just my favorite. I mean, it's it's, it's not just
- 1:54:50the game. The game is usually good, but it
- 1:54:52is the everything leading up to the game.
- 1:54:56It's the best thing on earth. The culture makes it too easy.
- 1:54:59It's just it's an easy dig, man. Look, I've had so much fun in
- 1:55:02Tuscaloosa. Too.
- 1:55:04I've had a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot of fun in Tuscaloosa, even
- 1:55:09in a couple of losses. But I've primarily I got a
- 1:55:12winning record over there. Just like Jr. who is in the chat
- 1:55:16would say that's right, that's right.
- 1:55:20But I've had a lot. I've had a lot of fun at Alabama
- 1:55:23and they've always treated me really good.
- 1:55:26So This is why I never people, always the people give me crap
- 1:55:31about this. That got an Alabama Co host.
- 1:55:36We talk a lot about Alabama stuff on this show.
- 1:55:38We talk a lot about Connect A. Sausage Jr. is in the house.
- 1:55:42Jr. is in the house and you know what though?
- 1:55:45These are all my Alabama boys. I do not care what anybody
- 1:55:50thinks. They know where I stand.
- 1:55:52I know where they stand. And at the end of the day, my
- 1:55:56life really doesn't revolve around LSU.
- 1:55:59Football it does. It does, but it.
- 1:56:02My life is going to revolve around Auburn for a while, but
- 1:56:04I'm going to try to keep a lid on it.
- 1:56:06But look, at the end of the day, every fan base has a few of
- 1:56:12them. They're ruining for everybody.
- 1:56:13And you know what? I will be honest with you, when
- 1:56:16I was younger, I was kind of part of that collect that ruined
- 1:56:20it for you. Thank you.
- 1:56:21Kind of for this, yeah. I was, I was, I was really
- 1:56:25adamant if, if, if we lost it, it ruined my whole weekend.
- 1:56:28Now it's like, yeah, I want to win and I get kind of upset for
- 1:56:32a couple hours, but I used to wake up the next day and feel
- 1:56:37like it's. The end of the world.
- 1:56:39Yeah, I felt like I was running from the I.
- 1:56:41Understand. And now I don't do that because
- 1:56:45I've grown up. But it it is, it is a lot of
- 1:56:48college football's a lot of fun. Look, hey, I, you're 36 years
- 1:56:52old, I'm 46 years old. You, you're further along than I
- 1:56:56was at 36. I can tell you that because my
- 1:56:59wife and anybody who knows me would say that probably didn't
- 1:57:02happen to maybe I I think 2019 is what I finally said.
- 1:57:07Perfection. Best team in the history of
- 1:57:10college football. I'll never see anything like
- 1:57:12that ever, ever, ever again. And I won't.
- 1:57:17I'm good. I'm done.
- 1:57:18I've done it. We've done it.
- 1:57:19We did it. So I mean, I'm still there.
- 1:57:22I go to every home game. That doesn't change.
- 1:57:24But my life doesn't revolve around it anymore.
- 1:57:27You know, you know what we parallel with that we don't
- 1:57:30realize. So Auburn when they won the
- 1:57:32national championship in 2010 with Cam, people forget that we
- 1:57:36went from national champions 14 and O to 8:00 and 5:00 to 3:00
- 1:57:42and 9:00 in two years and obviously y'all weren't as as
- 1:57:48drastic as that, but it went through the same thing.
- 1:57:52It was like Joe Burrow national championship.
- 1:57:55Best team pretty much you ever seen on the field if
- 1:58:01offensively, I don't think there's ever a team that you
- 1:58:03would ever pick beyond LSU to be your all Time Team.
- 1:58:09I mean, at least modern day. And so then you, you, you go
- 1:58:14with, I don't know. To me, it it's so easy for
- 1:58:19Auburn and LSU fans to understand how each other feels
- 1:58:23because Auburn went to this national championship, decent
- 1:58:28season, worst season ever, fired the coach.
- 1:58:32And you would have never, you would have never thought that.
- 1:58:35You would have thought like James doesn't come in, he wins
- 1:58:39the national championship with Cam year two.
- 1:58:41You think he's there for a while, he goes 8:00 and 5:00,
- 1:58:44then he goes 3:00 and 9:00. He gets booted.
- 1:58:47And then Auburn's kind of been on this roller coaster of
- 1:58:50coaches for about 15 years. Yeah, yeah, much.
- 1:58:56Like Florida, really, some of them, some of them win, but it's
- 1:58:59just not a nobody can do it like we used to.
- 1:59:04Well, I'm going to tell you right now, I'm going out on a
- 1:59:06limb and it's not because you're on here whatsoever, but Auburn,
- 1:59:11I think they should scare people this year with with Hugh Freeze.
- 1:59:16He's he seems confident and I've seen him talk like that.
- 1:59:19And it was not just from getting strippers and all of that.
- 1:59:23It was. No, I agree.
- 1:59:25He he, he recruited, he got it. Athletes man, Auburn.
- 1:59:30Auburn's a good eight win team this year and they're going to
- 1:59:33lose to some teams they shouldn't lose too, and they're
- 1:59:35going to beat some teams they shouldn't.
- 1:59:37Be Yep. I'm just glad LSU don't have to
- 1:59:39play them. It we get we don't have to have
- 1:59:42any. We may play each other in in
- 1:59:44Atlanta and that would be wonderful.
- 1:59:46I know, but. How weird is that to even say I?
- 1:59:48Know it's. LSU and Auburn could play for
- 1:59:51the SEC Championship. Itself, me and the wife get so
- 1:59:53excited every year about the Auburn LSU game and the fact
- 1:59:56that we're not playing every year sucks.
- 1:59:57I can't believe I know. I don't like it either.
- 1:59:59Everything they realigned, they thought that taking Auburn and
- 2:00:02LSU out of the the every year schedule would work.
- 2:00:06It just it, it sucks. It does suck because it's always
- 2:00:10been one of my favorite. Auburn has always been a thorn
- 2:00:14in LSU side in the games. They've always been just so
- 2:00:17good. They're always just awesome.
- 2:00:19Which is what made it fun. Good games A.
- 2:00:22Lot of good games. Earthquake game.
- 2:00:24The earthquake. Game Bo mix with his crazy
- 2:00:28shenanigans a couple of years ago it's been.
- 2:00:32Like Bug says, Auburn people are good people.
- 2:00:35They're a lot better than Alabama people.
- 2:00:37No offense, Jr., who said. What's up y'all?
- 2:00:40Jr. did show up. I knew he would in place.
- 2:00:43He did too. I'm so proud of them.
- 2:00:45Just so you know, boy, I think she's like, boy, LSU when I was
- 2:00:49giving Alabama a little love. We all know where Tiggy's
- 2:00:52alliances are. Don't you worry about that.
- 2:00:56Don't you worry about that. There it is, Jr., the handler
- 2:00:59with the it's it's it's cosmic cocaine country.
- 2:01:03Music. Can we invite him in?
- 2:01:05Will he like go on camera with us?
- 2:01:07He he has the link. If he can, I know he would.
- 2:01:12I don't. Know where he's at, he.
- 2:01:14J Rs Probably eating at one of those $1000 steakhouses in New
- 2:01:18York City right now. Chiming in, baby, they are.
- 2:01:21We can't all be you. That's right.
- 2:01:24That's right. All right, let's begin to wrap
- 2:01:26this up a little bit though. So we do get what we talked
- 2:01:29about. We got to get and we've talked
- 2:01:31dips and we're going to, we're going to close with some of that
- 2:01:34stuff. I want to talk, I want you to
- 2:01:36give us three dips to make this weekend, but hold on until we
- 2:01:40get through some of these games. We'll talk about them.
- 2:01:42He's at the hotel in NYC. Well, you've got 10 minutes.
- 2:01:46Make it happen. All right, so Saturday is a day
- 2:01:51of good stuff. We have Clemson versus Georgia,
- 2:01:55that could be interesting. Miami at Florida.
- 2:01:59I don't think it's going to be interesting either, but we'll
- 2:02:01see. Miami at Florida could be
- 2:02:03interesting. Nope.
- 2:02:05What about Nevada at Troy? I didn't think so either.
- 2:02:11Notre Dame at A&M. Notre Dame versus A and.
- 2:02:16MI don't know where the game's at, I just know they're playing
- 2:02:19each. Other So I'm going to say A&M
- 2:02:22and Notre Dame. Let me see where they're
- 2:02:24playing. A&M by 10 easily.
- 2:02:28Like A&M is going to be stacked this year.
- 2:02:33A&M is going to be A&M is going to give people all kinds of
- 2:02:36fits. In the first game of the year,
- 2:02:39obviously a big marquee matchup, it's going to be different, but
- 2:02:42I I really think A&M is going to kick their ass.
- 2:02:45It says that it's at Northern, it's at Texas A and MI Think A&M
- 2:02:50is going to roll them. See I I got them by 10.
- 2:02:53I go with that. I go with that.
- 2:02:55I think A&M is going to be the sleeper team in the SEC.
- 2:02:58They're going to be the team to watch out for.
- 2:03:00And and Texas is coming to the fold, too.
- 2:03:02So A&M is going to be that that much more motivated.
- 2:03:06It's going to be different this year.
- 2:03:08Yeah, yeah, Yep. It's yeah, she's, Courtney says
- 2:03:12it's at A&M. It is, Handler says.
- 2:03:15He has to. He's got to be up in a few hours
- 2:03:18for Fox and Friends. Oh yeah, that's right.
- 2:03:20So tomorrow, everybody. Yeah.
- 2:03:23But yeah, we're going to watch that.
- 2:03:25I. Believe just cruise that out
- 2:03:26there. Like it was like, hey man, I'm
- 2:03:28going to the gym. I know look, he's not even in
- 2:03:31here in video, but he still did what Jr. does.
- 2:03:34He just casually threw this out. Oh yeah, don't worry, we got
- 2:03:36everybody on Fox and Friends. No big deal, brother.
- 2:03:39Hey, we all could. Yeah.
- 2:03:41We're not. We're not worthy.
- 2:03:44We're. Not worthy.
- 2:03:46Oh, I'm sorry, I can't be there. I'm just doing Fox and Friends
- 2:03:50in the morning. That is awesome though dude,
- 2:03:51that's awesome. It is so freaking awesome.
- 2:03:53I believe it's at 7:00 AM. Send that in the chat.
- 2:03:56Jr. Just to confirm, but I think
- 2:03:58it's at 7:00 AM Central that Justin Moore will be on Fox and
- 2:04:03Friends and they're going to do an interview and do all that
- 2:04:06stuff. He's going to play some songs.
- 2:04:09Who knows what he's going to play.
- 2:04:10Jr. Feel free to give us a preview,
- 2:04:13a little exclusive in the chat if you would like to, of maybe a
- 2:04:16song we could expect to hear on Fox.
- 2:04:20But. Sorry.
- 2:04:24You know, he's going to play him, Jr. said.
- 2:04:26You know, typically when you watch those Fox and friends, you
- 2:04:29just hear it's like they're talking blah, blah, blah.
- 2:04:31And then all of a sudden they go to the concert like it's just
- 2:04:35started. Yeah, but they've been playing
- 2:04:38for like a damn hour. You know, they've been, they
- 2:04:40put, they put on a full, they play a full set and they just
- 2:04:44kind of come in whenever they're supposed to.
- 2:04:46Let's see what he said. He says there will be a duet
- 2:04:49with Randy Houser, who will also be there in the morning.
- 2:04:53Nice, there you go some. Exclusive content that's a
- 2:04:57little insider that's. It is a little insider.
- 2:05:00I love it. I love it.
- 2:05:02Has that all been released yet? It has.
- 2:05:05I think it was released either last Friday or the Friday before
- 2:05:09I. Think it was last Friday.
- 2:05:11Everything, everything runs together.
- 2:05:12I last Friday seems like it could have been yesterday, but
- 2:05:16last Friday seems like it could have been three weeks ago as
- 2:05:20well, so I don't know. Hey, Jr. if you're watching,
- 2:05:23I'll send Justin some seasoning. I'll sign it if you don't like
- 2:05:27it. I'm kidding.
- 2:05:29I'll just send him some seasoning.
- 2:05:30But man, if you could get me something with Justin sign,
- 2:05:34that'd be great. I will hang it right here in the
- 2:05:36office. Got a feeling where this flag
- 2:05:38is? Right here, Jr.
- 2:05:39Sorry, let me get the It's mirrored where this flag is.
- 2:05:42We'll put Justin right there. Bam, there it is.
- 2:05:46There it is. OK, Randy and Randy Houser and
- 2:05:50and Justin, they, their tour together starts next week in
- 2:05:53Charlotte. Very cool, very cool.
- 2:05:57And he's got. You.
- 2:05:58He's got you. He's got you.
- 2:06:01Yeah. They Justin's so cool.
- 2:06:02Jr. Don't go back and watch us
- 2:06:04telling me telling the story about the time the first time
- 2:06:08that I met Justin. I didn't go to too far into it
- 2:06:12beyond what I what I didn't finish with is that.
- 2:06:16On the next episode because I. Oh, it is.
- 2:06:18It's just build it. No, I don't think we'll ever get
- 2:06:21the video from it, but but so Justin got up or not Justin.
- 2:06:27We were fine. Jr. came in from taking a whiz
- 2:06:30just like we had done, and all he heard was me and him kind of
- 2:06:34starting to bicker at each other and he shut it down.
- 2:06:37He shut down the stream, baby. Which is what he should do.
- 2:06:42Is he kind of the mediator too, of the grill?
- 2:06:44He's the handler, he's the. Handler.
- 2:06:46So the handler does. That's what the name came from.
- 2:06:48I didn't know that that's. Exactly right yes.
- 2:06:51So when you're a handler, you you wear every single hat either
- 2:06:56not watching Jr. in action. I didn't I you would think like
- 2:07:01man, that'd be cool. That'd be a lot of fun.
- 2:07:03You get to your own tour. You get to do all that now, man.
- 2:07:06His job is stressful stress. Ranks in everybody.
- 2:07:12He ain't ever right and he ain't ever wrong either.
- 2:07:15And that's just like he. It's just like a land of in
- 2:07:17between. I don't even know how to explain
- 2:07:20it. And Jr. isn't here to defend.
- 2:07:21I didn't realize that was one of the names yet.
- 2:07:23That's that's, that's really cool.
- 2:07:25He's literally the handler. I mean, that's what he does.
- 2:07:27So he Jr. was the tour manager for John Pardee when John Pardee
- 2:07:33first started. And and then I, we need to get
- 2:07:38Jr. has told the story, but we need to get him to tell it
- 2:07:41again. It's been too long.
- 2:07:42It needs to be refreshed. But then he he did become the
- 2:07:47tour manager with Justin a a few years ago, several years ago.
- 2:07:51And then that, that's been the the deal ever since.
- 2:07:53But just what a what a unbelievable, an unbelievable
- 2:07:57gig. It would be so fun, you would
- 2:07:59think. But then again, watching it
- 2:08:02live, No, I just headache, man. It's a lot of trouble.
- 2:08:06Yeah, a lot of trouble. Oh, look, we got look who we got
- 2:08:10jumping in the chat. How?
- 2:08:12The Cajun lady. Acts, dude, I told you, that's
- 2:08:15my girl right there. She'll be in here.
- 2:08:17Oh yeah? Oh yeah.
- 2:08:19What the hell is going on, love? It What's up, girl?
- 2:08:23You going to be in Madisonville on October?
- 2:08:25We're doing a big event. I take y'all to come.
- 2:08:28What you doing? There's I don't know how many
- 2:08:32influencers are coming. It's, it's, it's a lot.
- 2:08:34So we're looking, there's no hotels within 30 miles.
- 2:08:40There's no place to stay within 30 miles.
- 2:08:42And I'm like, well, it's a good thing that they're getting a
- 2:08:46problem. If I had to guess, between
- 2:08:48everybody's platform, there's probably 200 million worth of
- 2:08:54followers for influencers come to this event and there's
- 2:08:58nowhere to stay within 30 miles. Holy.
- 2:09:01Cow And I was talking to Missy McQueen today.
- 2:09:03I'm sure you've seen Missy McQueen before.
- 2:09:04Oh, yeah, yeah. I said I'll see you in
- 2:09:07Madisonville in October, right? She said yeah, we're all
- 2:09:09staying. Is there a hotel?
- 2:09:11And I was like, no, I asked Caroline, my wife, and she's
- 2:09:14like, no, there's really not nowhere to stay.
- 2:09:17So I said, yeah, it's a awesome that all all of us are getting
- 2:09:21together. There's nowhere to stay within
- 2:09:2430 miles. And I'm like, obviously like you
- 2:09:26have to book something soon because there's going to be a
- 2:09:30lot of people coming because it means in Texas, everything's big
- 2:09:34in Texas, but it's in the middle of nowhere and there's not that
- 2:09:39many places to stay. So everything's going to get
- 2:09:41booked up quick. Very quick.
- 2:09:43So we're, we're going to Airbnb route and everybody's like, oh,
- 2:09:46you could, you could share a plate.
- 2:09:47And I'm like, dude, I'm not that guy.
- 2:09:49I will tell you right now, I'm not that guy.
- 2:09:51When I want to lay my head down, it is not, I'm not sharing a
- 2:09:54bathroom with you. I'm going to I'll see you
- 2:09:56tomorrow morning. I've got breakfast with you, but
- 2:09:59I'm by myself in my own space. I'm that guy too, Austin.
- 2:10:04I'm the same way. Like I love you, but no, I'll,
- 2:10:09I'll see you. I'll see you in the morning, I
- 2:10:11mean. When I come to the Queen that
- 2:10:12she's like, you're preaching the same gospel.
- 2:10:14She's like, we're going to get our own place.
- 2:10:18Fact Fact. Hal says she'll be there.
- 2:10:21She will be there. So I I wonder what what date is
- 2:10:24that? October, I want to say 19th.
- 2:10:29Let's see how is it is. It the 19th, I want to say it's
- 2:10:33the 19th. Let's see who's LSU play that
- 2:10:38weekend because that's what matters to me.
- 2:10:40They are at Arkansas. We're going to go destroy Justin
- 2:10:47Moore's Hogs and I'm going to come film y'all with doing some
- 2:10:51content. Well, that sounds like a fun
- 2:10:53weekend. I'm going to day trip it though.
- 2:10:56I'm going, you know, I can come there, roll and come back.
- 2:11:01I am not afraid to do that. Not at all.
- 2:11:07I love that. All right, let's see, dude, we
- 2:11:12haven't finished. It's just Welcome to an ADHD
- 2:11:17episode of Tigs Bits, which is what this whole night has been.
- 2:11:21Not really. It's been we've had fun.
- 2:11:22We've just been chilling. We've been on long enough.
- 2:11:24My mic died so my sounds different.
- 2:11:26Sorry, my mic. Died.
- 2:11:27It's OK. It's OK.
- 2:11:30You know, Brent says. We can stay at his house, Bug.
- 2:11:33We'll stay at your house, Bug. Of course.
- 2:11:36Then we can go into the Ley Boo garage.
- 2:11:39And then there's a whole other event it'd be kind of like
- 2:11:42taking coming to your house. So Sunday we have LSU versus the
- 2:11:51Southern California Trojans. What's your thoughts on this,
- 2:11:56Austin? Man, honestly, I think LSU has
- 2:12:00lost a couple of home openers, not home openers, but seasoning
- 2:12:05openers. And I honestly, I just, I think
- 2:12:09Brian Kelly's been there for a couple of years.
- 2:12:12It's going to be different their stack this year.
- 2:12:15I know USC is awesome with Lincoln Riley.
- 2:12:19They got a lot of good to recruit.
- 2:12:20I just, I really truly in my core, I believe that LS she's
- 2:12:25going to win the game. And I honestly don't think with
- 2:12:28it like 5 minutes in the fourth quarter, I don't even think it's
- 2:12:30going to be a question. I'm not saying LS she's going to
- 2:12:33blow the doors on. I think LS, she's going to hit
- 2:12:35up in the mouth the whole game, but I think LSU is up by 7.
- 2:12:41They go up by 10 with like 5 minutes left, they get the ball
- 2:12:44back and it kind of ends like that.
- 2:12:46And I could be wrong, but I just feel like LSU's got too much
- 2:12:50talent for Brian Kelly to have lost to Florida State two years
- 2:12:55in a row, and I feel like they'll be very prepared.
- 2:12:58I think Nussmeyer is very underrated.
- 2:13:00I think I'll have a really good year.
- 2:13:02There's a lot of athletes around him.
- 2:13:04I really think LSU wins that game by 10.
- 2:13:09I don't disagree with anything that you said.
- 2:13:12I'll take it a step further. The thing that I've been looking
- 2:13:15at that a lot of folks have been talking about in some of my
- 2:13:19group texts, the over under, and of course that changes, but the
- 2:13:23last time I saw was like 6363, 1/2, something like that.
- 2:13:28I would take the over on that. I think there's going to be a
- 2:13:31lot of points. So yes, I think there's going to
- 2:13:33be a lot of points scored. I'm not, I'm not sold that this
- 2:13:37defense is a totally turned it around from where they were at
- 2:13:43last year. Do I think LSU will be better
- 2:13:45this year than they were last year?
- 2:13:47100% defensively? Offensively, no.
- 2:13:51Defensively, yes. Do I think they're going to be
- 2:13:53kind of a wash in there? I do LSU wins, I agree wins by
- 2:13:5910, pulling away. But I think you're going to see
- 2:14:02kind of a shootout. I think it's going to be a fun
- 2:14:04ball game to watch if you're not an LSU fan, but.
- 2:14:09I'm more like a 303424 type deal for me.
- 2:14:14OK, OK. I mean it's. 34 day, they're
- 2:14:17playing five weeks into the season, it'd be different, but I
- 2:14:20think just the rust of everybody.
- 2:14:22Defence will be showing up. They'll make some mistakes on
- 2:14:25offense, there'll be some turnovers.
- 2:14:27I think that's the only reason I'm saying it's going to be the
- 2:14:30under and I think it'll be like a 3424 game.
- 2:14:34As long as LSU wins, this boy will be more than more than
- 2:14:38happy. But it's a rematch of the 2004,
- 2:14:41what could have been a national championship.
- 2:14:44But everybody always puts that together and I find that it's a
- 2:14:48little bit disrespectful to our now SEC brethren, the Oklahoma
- 2:14:54Sooners. That Oklahoma was undefeated,
- 2:14:57had the Heisman Trophy winner that year and rolled through
- 2:15:02everybody pretty. Nice their ass kicked by USC and
- 2:15:06then. Well, though they got LSU beat
- 2:15:08them and for the national championship.
- 2:15:11But the net, but the so I don't know that was O3.
- 2:15:14That was O3, yeah, yeah. You're right, you're right.
- 2:15:19And O 4, Auburn went undefeated and didn't get a chance to play
- 2:15:23for the national championship. And Oklahoma got drummed by USC.
- 2:15:27That's right. I'm not saying Auburn would have
- 2:15:29beat USC, but they've been a hell of a lot better game than
- 2:15:31Oklahoma game was. Oh, I think Auburn would have
- 2:15:33won the national championship that year.
- 2:15:35They were the best. Team, you know what so crazy
- 2:15:37it's like that was that was kind of when the SEC started imposing
- 2:15:42their will and now you think about that team from Auburn and
- 2:15:46O 4 that would never happen again.
- 2:15:49So think about an undefeated SEC team that's being held out of
- 2:15:52the national championship game. Obviously now moving into the 12
- 2:15:56playoffs, 12 team playoff system.
- 2:16:00It would not happen, but I mean it wouldn't have happened when
- 2:16:04it was a fourteen playoff. No, no, it would not.
- 2:16:09It would not. All right, Well, let's start to
- 2:16:11wrap this up here. Austin, give us three dips that
- 2:16:16should be made this weekend. I'm going to put you on the
- 2:16:20spot, one of one of which could be the video that you posted
- 2:16:23today, because that will probably be made here at Tiggy's
- 2:16:26house. Yes, it's got to be college
- 2:16:29football depth. I posted that today on TikTok,
- 2:16:32Facebook, Instagram, YouTube. Beyond that I would go beach
- 2:16:36dip. That's my all time favorite.
- 2:16:40That's it. What is?
- 2:16:41The beach dip What is the beach dip tell?
- 2:16:43Tape five ingredients. I can't tell you got to look
- 2:16:47them up. It ain't I can't, I can't just
- 2:16:50it's, it's literally it's going to cost you $10 in a grocery
- 2:16:53store. Go get it.
- 2:16:55Go watch the beach dip. It's it's insane.
- 2:16:57That beach dip video got like 20 million views on Facebook.
- 2:17:00I don't know how I am TikTok and everything else.
- 2:17:03It was, it was so it was so insane.
- 2:17:06And my, my all time favorite for football season is always going
- 2:17:10to I'm a, I'm a, I'm a traditionalist Buffalo chicken
- 2:17:13dough. Oh yeah, a little bit different,
- 2:17:17but not a lot different than everybody else.
- 2:17:19But Buffalo chicken dip, beach dip and the college football dip
- 2:17:24that I posted today, that'd be the three that I would say like
- 2:17:27go try them. But at this point I don't even
- 2:17:30know how many. I was talking to my wife earlier
- 2:17:32how many dips I posted. Yeah, I was going to ask how
- 2:17:35many dips. Maybe like 50, like I'm running
- 2:17:38out of ideas, you know? I'm just trying my best.
- 2:17:42I think you're doing a great job, brother.
- 2:17:44I think you're doing a great job.
- 2:17:47I mean, and that and that's some good dips and what I like about
- 2:17:50all but not all of them, but a lot of these dips like I don't
- 2:17:53think you can get creative with some of these dips and put stuff
- 2:17:57them in jalapeno Peppers and. Stuff.
- 2:17:59Like that, you know, I mean, there's.
- 2:18:01You can add protein, you can add beef, you can add chicken, you
- 2:18:04can add there's and people say that in the comments and I'm
- 2:18:08like, yeah, sure, like add that. It would be great.
- 2:18:11Yeah, well, I mean, I was just making a video and this is what
- 2:18:15I did with that. And yes, you're correct.
- 2:18:18These things would be good. If you'd like me to make another
- 2:18:20video, maybe I should do that. Yeah, the same thing.
- 2:18:23And then add your blueberries to it.
- 2:18:26Yeah, they're like you're rude. I know it's you can't win.
- 2:18:31What about your suggestion? That was rude.
- 2:18:34You can't win. Oh, look at my boy Bug.
- 2:18:37What about your boat dip? I have seen your yacht dip or
- 2:18:40your boat dip. Which what exactly is that
- 2:18:43you're We should have a spaceship dip with our boy
- 2:18:46Boogalicious spaceship. Call it a spaceship dip.
- 2:18:50Tiggy will help with that one. So the the difference in boat
- 2:18:54dip and yacht dip is basically there's no protein in boat dip
- 2:18:59and there's protein in yacht dip.
- 2:19:01So pro yacht dip is a step up from boat dip and it's got
- 2:19:06rotisserie chicken in it. That's that's the only
- 2:19:08difference. OK, OK.
- 2:19:10All right. I love it.
- 2:19:12I love it. All right, well, let's see.
- 2:19:15I know I saw something in the chat that I needed to address.
- 2:19:18Oh, yes, yes, yes, Courtney Brandon says.
- 2:19:21Go Tigers, of course. Yes, Go Tigers.
- 2:19:23It's so nice not having a lot of resentment in here tonight.
- 2:19:28You can say it so freely it feels.
- 2:19:31So nice dude. It's been fun because like
- 2:19:33nobody was coming at me either. So it's like obviously I'm pro
- 2:19:37LSU, but I'm still an Auburn fan.
- 2:19:39But I'm I have an unbiased opinion.
- 2:19:41I think LSU will win the game. I think they'll win by 10.
- 2:19:45If they win by three, I'll be happy.
- 2:19:47But I ultimately, I think LSU wins the game.
- 2:19:50I do too. I do too, Courtney.
- 2:19:52Do not think I know what I was thinking about.
- 2:19:54Do not think that I've forgotten.
