George Strait’s Secret Life Off-Stage Finally Revealed! · Tigs Bits Podcast

0:07
Welcome to Tigs Bits. Finally the three of us are all
0:12
back in Studio Blossy and his home away from home.
0:16
Studio live from a cobwebbed up props.
0:20
Yes, it is. We haven't been.
0:23
Able to record a fresh Bubba show, all three of us and, and
0:28
what does feel like it, it has been at least a month or so
0:32
since we've been able to do that.
0:34
And I mean really and truly the stuff that I know Blasey and I,
0:38
we've talked about a lot of stuff going on like you alluded
0:42
to there, Jr. the tales from the tailgate.
0:44
You can check those out on our YouTube channel.
0:47
Head over to tigsbits.com. You can see all of our latest
0:51
shows. We do more than just this show
0:53
that you're listening to right now in the Bubba Army Network.
0:57
We also have our own podcast. It drops every 3rd you.
1:00
Generally every Thursday night at 7:00.
1:02
We go live, have a lot of folks from the Bubba Army that are in
1:06
there interacting, chopping it up with us, as Jr. likes to say.
1:11
So sometimes we go live on Wednesdays as well.
1:14
It just depends. We may go earlier in the week,
1:17
but if we do, all of that information will be out on our
1:21
socials at Tigs bits podcast. Without any further ado, I know
1:26
Blasey and I have talked over this past weekend.
1:29
We got to hang out. We'll get more into that, but
1:32
we've been waiting to talk to you Jr. because the last time
1:37
that we stopped or the last time that we visited, you had been on
1:40
a 30 plus day, not drinking streak and and and then you've
1:47
hit the road. Cheers.
1:49
You've been out there with you've been out there with JM
1:52
going crazy. New number one, all this stuff
1:56
will shut up and listen. Jr., what's been happening?
1:58
Oh geez. Well, it prepare to be
2:01
underwhelmed. Yeah, I've just been slammed,
2:04
man. Correct.
2:05
Yeah, still still high and dry. Feeling pretty good.
2:09
Still feeling good for you. Pretty good about that.
2:11
Yeah. No, no, no stress at all.
2:12
Blasey. Really.
2:13
It's crazy. It's it's still somebody day.
2:15
It's like 0 negatives. I don't really.
2:17
Yeah, there are no negatives. A little fiddy feel that
2:19
sometimes, and a little, well, this this.
2:21
I know this would be a good place for one, but besides that,
2:24
positives are just whooping the negatives like it's going out of
2:27
style. So, so far so good.
2:29
And that's the thing too. I when I tell people that I'm
2:31
like, I didn't get like a DUI arrested or go to rehab.
2:35
I just totally, just totally just left out of nowhere.
2:38
Just decided to take a break. It ain't like I was in trouble
2:40
tripping. It ain't nothing like that.
2:42
So, so if I get back, it's not like, oh, he's back.
2:44
I'm like, no. What's been, what's been the
2:48
hardest part? Jr.
2:49
Like I would think it would be on stage being, you know, those
2:53
show maybe during the show. The only thing I would say the
2:56
energy like I do, you just go to bed earlier.
2:58
I was talking to John Party about that 'cause he took a big
3:01
long break earlier this year and he said, yeah, you just go to
3:04
bed earlier. I was like, that's true.
3:05
You just don't have that extra umph from being wound up from.
3:07
That's right. Now that makes sense.
3:10
Makes sense? Music, if you're listening to
3:12
music, it doesn't just. Well, but.
3:14
It's different though, man, I tell you.
3:15
When you're when you're total clarity now.
3:17
And Chris Jansen told me this. He said, man, he said your
3:20
reflexes and everything will get better the longer you go to.
3:23
He said you'll see and be you'll hear and see better and you'll
3:26
catch stuff more. He said it, that part's funny.
3:28
And sure enough, I realized the other night, looking at the
3:30
lights during a a song, I was just like, whoa, you know, And I
3:34
was just like, but it was, it was different because I can see
3:36
them all. And I was like, you know, yeah,
3:38
just a little. More crisp, just a little more
3:41
pop there, yeah. Pop yeah.
3:42
And and being in total control, you know, which is, which is a
3:45
thing. And you know, anyway, that's a
3:47
bunch. Of do you?
3:49
I mean, is this are you going to go on a street now we are you
3:52
vowing to never have another drink?
3:54
Or is this you're just kind of going and just till?
3:57
The till, the till the. Right moment comes along no.
4:00
No, no, I, I'm going. I'm yeah, exactly.
4:03
Until I until I feel inclined, you know.
4:06
So no, not making any promises. Never cut out to never set slow
4:10
expectations here, boys and girls, low.
4:12
Expectations well, we won't get our tokens ready for you, you,
4:17
we, we won't have any gold coins waiting on you here at 50 days
4:21
and 100 days. But just making sure, just
4:25
making sure. You know, I get it.
4:26
No, it's all good. It's all good.
4:28
It's a funny job, you know. 20 How many people you run into?
4:31
They're in the same boat too, you know.
4:33
You probably lost a little weight throughout this journey
4:35
too. Just.
4:37
Probably so not feeling too shabby.
4:39
I mean like to see it. It's pretty amazing when you're
4:42
not slowly poisoning yourself to death.
4:43
But hey, you know what's the it's not as fun, I guess.
4:48
I don't know. It's been pretty fun so far.
4:50
I mean, tell you one thing, this trippy for me is being able to
4:53
just RIP and run and drive places because I mean, my whole
4:56
entire adult life I've been, you know, usually didn't need to
4:59
plan a ride. We'd have to get a ride or pay
5:01
for a ride or, you know, figure some situation out.
5:03
Now I'm like, hell, I'll just go.
5:04
And no matter what time or day or night, I'm totally that
5:06
matter. Which is only over.
5:08
I'm fine. Yeah, that's totally.
5:10
OK, we'd love to talk to you, you know, thank you for your
5:14
service. You know, so it's kind of like,
5:17
you know, on that it's a it's a different, it's like a
5:20
superpower almost kind. I'm like, I've never been able
5:22
to do this. That's awesome, dude.
5:24
That's awesome. Congratulations.
5:26
There's a new there's a new music venue, bar, restaurant,
5:30
Johnny B's front porch out in Lillian, Alabama.
5:33
And it's kind of got an old school, old school floor Bama
5:36
vibe out there like the old main room used to have.
5:38
It's started by Johnny Barbados, who's a long time player at the
5:41
floor Bama, still does and been wanting to go out there.
5:45
I drive by at the airport, but I'm always like, if I go out
5:47
there, we'll have some drinks and I can be able to get back.
5:48
It's a hike after Lillian from my house.
5:50
Now. I'm like, while I'm on this
5:52
streak, I've got to go out there and.
5:54
Get it? Done and hang and see the and
5:56
see some music and and and hang and eat and all that stuff.
5:58
It's another thing too, when I'm cutting, when I know I'm cutting
6:00
down 3000 calories of alcohol, I don't skimp on the desserts or a
6:04
second or something, just whatever.
6:06
You got full sand on the food. Oh yeah.
6:08
Oh yeah. That's yeah, that's great.
6:10
And the money too I think it don't matter what I order off
6:12
the menu, the booze would. My booze bills always double my
6:15
food bills so I'm still going to save even if I get 2 desserts.
6:19
Oh, I know. It's crazy.
6:21
Yeah, it is crazy. When you got a restaurant, you
6:22
don't drink and you look at the tablet, man.
6:23
Look at this place. It's so affordable.
6:25
No, just don't drink, man. Just get that.
6:28
It makes a monster difference. It does.
6:30
It does. And look, our fine folks, our
6:33
good friends at the floor Bama, sponsors of our show, man, they
6:38
had a had a big surprise guest there the other night with
6:42
Posty, with Post Malone. And oh, I didn't know that.
6:45
That's awesome. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
6:46
I was there two weeks before that John party.
6:48
We went after his show. We all went there after John.
6:50
'S show did y'all. That's cool, man.
6:51
Oh. Yeah, man, what about what's his
6:56
name? Morgan.
6:59
Yeah, Morgan Wallin. I got a think of his name.
7:02
Taking over to his. Morgan Freeman What?
7:04
About Morgan Wallin in the doing the the new the hangout fest
7:08
kind of being renamed basically that.
7:11
Yeah, I didn't really see that. I didn't see that coming.
7:13
That was. But I didn't.
7:15
I don't keep my, you know, I don't know why I would have
7:17
known. Nobody had to tell me, but I
7:18
didn't. I had no inkling that was going
7:20
to happen. Then boom, it happened.
7:21
I was like, oh, interesting. I get it though, just to you
7:24
know, I don't it has to be some kind of deal on the partnership
7:27
while they want to do it, because for me, I'm just
7:29
thinking, hell, they don't need any help.
7:31
They're selling plenty of tickets there.
7:33
They don't need the hangout fest.
7:34
It's not struggling to fill up. No, that's so I I don't know,
7:37
it's kind of what I was thinking like why are they?
7:40
I guess there's some there's some dynamic there.
7:42
Yeah, I'm sure they can get a bigger draw from sponsors with
7:46
the different, maybe the tie in there or something, who knows,
7:49
But I. Mean the the music lineup came
7:51
out and it looks I mean, it looks good.
7:53
There's still a different. Prices could triple tomorrow,
7:56
you know, Have they, have they laid that out yet?
7:58
I have no idea. Yeah, I would.
8:00
I would look for that next. That's just my.
8:03
It's already crazy. I mean, because it's not, you
8:06
know, and man, I mean, this is a, this is a, this town can
8:11
handle a lot of tourists and a lot of traffic, but man, that's
8:14
a lot of extra people for one or two nights that I mean, this is
8:16
not that big of a town where down here where we live, but
8:20
it'll be what it'll be. It brings in a lot of money.
8:21
Obviously the city's getting a big cut or they wouldn't do it.
8:24
And yeah, it's pretty cool. The lineup seemed pretty, pretty
8:28
wild. I I had text somebody and just
8:30
to see what the deal was to get how all that went down and they
8:34
said Morgan hand picked the the lineup himself.
8:36
When is that? When is that?
8:37
I mean, like April maybe. Yeah, that's the one Lummy goes
8:41
and works, right. I think Lummy comes up there in
8:43
bartends, I think. So that's how he got the raise.
8:46
Yeah, he he got the raise off of that because he was asking if I
8:48
was going to be over there. And then Bubba, he was gone for
8:50
a few days and Bubba realized how much he needed.
8:52
And so he got that promotion because he was up there hanging
8:55
out, working well. We may, you know, we may have to
8:58
just slip over there and and go see Lummy, go grab a little
9:03
content. Tails from the tailgate over
9:05
there. You know there's gonna be a
9:06
tailgate over there. We're going to be hungry if
9:08
Lummy's. Driving up, he's got to get
9:10
that. Point in time.
9:11
He's got to get Craig and Rio and bring them up too.
9:13
That'd be a trill. Yes.
9:15
That would be fantastic. Operation pigmentation
9:17
pigmentation on fire again this week.
9:19
Love hearing those guys that I mean and they lay stuff down.
9:22
I'm like Yup, Yup, Yup, Yup, it's it's it's.
9:26
They just tell the truth. It's kind of like how a lot of
9:29
us they're, they're close to our age, kind of like how we all
9:32
grew up, same kind of stuff. It's.
9:33
Just like Yep. Yep, that's what you Yep, they
9:36
were killing me when they were talking about no, we ain't going
9:38
shopping together. We just happen to be going to
9:40
the mall and I'm like, I'm going to the mall.
9:42
Oh, OK, I'm a row. We OK that yes, but we ain't
9:45
going shopping together. We're just going.
9:47
To the mall. We're just going to the mall.
9:49
And then then breaking down your shoe etiquette.
9:51
I loved it. I'm like, they just nailed it.
9:52
It was good stuff. I'm.
9:55
So so. Behind kind of like we were
9:57
saying, you know, you'd had the you got to catch up on on Seth
10:01
and Kush a. Little bit I'll I'll tell you
10:04
how I got I'll tell you how I got to catch up now.
10:07
I don't know. Let's see.
10:09
I hadn't talked to you guys. Why?
10:10
I'm trying to think when's the last time I where I where I need
10:12
to catch up from Think it was beginning of the month.
10:16
So yeah, went to Arkansas right after I talked to you guys.
10:19
I think went up to Arkansas. We did the show at the
10:21
Amphitheatre there on a Thursday night.
10:23
Cool big Full House Arkansas Razorback, blah blah blah.
10:27
It was awesome. Hometown show for Justin.
10:30
Kind of, but it was kind of low key.
10:32
It was later and it was for the university, so it wasn't as many
10:34
family. It was a lot of like people
10:36
through the university and sponsors and you know, booster
10:40
type people was a big thing. They raised money for the NIL,
10:42
is what it was, yeah. Yeah, I did.
10:44
I saw that. And it was cool nonetheless.
10:47
You know, I know most of those folks tell you one new person I
10:50
met there that was awesome to get to talk to for a few
10:53
minutes. One and only Derek McFadden.
10:57
Oh, really? So I Razorbacks.
11:00
It was a beast back in the day, man, that's.
11:02
What I told him, I said, man, there was a run there on.
11:04
It was a McFadden and Felix were my guy.
11:06
They were both in the backfield. Yeah.
11:08
And. Felix Jones both and that's what
11:09
I tell more when I I was like, I remember the days when y'all had
11:12
them two tailbacks. Y'all didn't even y'all wouldn't
11:14
even line a quarterback up half the time and we we could do
11:16
y'all be just a couple years in a row there.
11:18
It was just Arkansas's just going steamroll this every year
11:20
for a handful of years there. But but yeah, D Max couldn't
11:24
have been nicer. Super cool.
11:25
Got talk to him for a few minutes.
11:28
That was that was one of the highlights of that.
11:29
That's cool dude, but I can't remember him.
11:33
That man that's that's super cool to get to meet Derek
11:36
McFadden. I mean, he he was a dagger in my
11:39
heart and a monster awesome. LSU, Arkansas like double
11:43
overtime game. The year LSU won the national
11:45
championship, they had the two losses.
11:48
One of those was that was when Les Miles said, But we never
11:52
lost in regulation. They didn't.
11:54
They got beaten overtime twice and then went on and and won.
11:57
But I mean, you couldn't hang your head losing to that.
12:00
That Arkansas team, they could run, man.
12:03
Had had, had. Oh man, of course I'm not going
12:07
to do good today, boys. I have been hammering it their
12:11
their offensive, their offensive coordinator that used to be
12:13
their head coach had he not had that motorcycle wreck.
12:16
They were on a roll right there that that train wrecked their
12:18
whole thing it. Did it?
12:20
Did it? It screwed their offensive.
12:21
Coordinator once again, but as we saw this past weekend, it it
12:27
ain't working out with old Petrino, Yeah.
12:30
Yeah, Y'all, y'all, y'all are coming around.
12:32
The thing is LSU just good. Arkansas and Arkansas needs to
12:35
tighten up, obviously, but LSU just getting good.
12:38
They don't have the depth. Arkansas just doesn't have the
12:40
depth. They that's why they were
12:42
rolling there at the beginning of the season.
12:43
But injuries start to take its toll.
12:45
And same with our Saints like that.
12:47
Same with our Saints. I mean Saints.
12:49
They're decimated. They're just completely
12:53
decimated. You line up good for the first
12:55
couple weeks whenever you have a full healthy roster, healthy
13:00
roster. But we got Alvin Kamara to get
13:02
traded. Middle of the season, I'm like,
13:03
what is good? I told Cherise.
13:05
I said this is new. I I didn't see this one coming.
13:08
He claims it was a rumor and that wasn't true.
13:10
But you know, where there's smoke, there's fire.
13:12
He was like, what do you mean I'm in orange?
13:14
He was like at the Tennessee game this past weekend, so.
13:18
I hope that's not, but still, anyway, that's about where we're
13:20
at. That's about where we're at.
13:23
I saw a thing on the Big Easy Mafia page and they it was a it
13:27
was a letter hosting open. Tryouts for the That's what I
13:30
was all to say. I did open tryouts.
13:33
The thing is, Jr. people showed up to the Saints facility
13:36
bringing helmets and stuff. They thought it was legit.
13:39
They thought it was legit. That's how the Saints fans
13:42
wanted to help. That's kind of and that's what
13:44
our, our, our dude hold the Mayo is at.
13:47
He's like, this is where we're at right now with the Saints.
13:51
Fans are thinking they can help like.
13:54
Whatever we can. I mean, they're, they're
13:56
pitiful, dude. They really are.
13:58
I mean, it's just. And we, I mean, started out on
14:01
fire. But I mean, this team's going to
14:03
make the playoffs and then. Oh yeah, you get a you.
14:06
Don't know if they caught another game.
14:08
You make some changes, this is all you needed.
14:10
They're going to roll. Big old just kept big old turd.
14:14
I mean terrible. Get a break, get to stay a
14:17
little longer. There's no way.
14:21
There's no way they're going to let him.
14:23
Start getting those kind of injuries, though, man.
14:24
Like, what can you do, You know? I mean, what, what, what, what
14:27
can you do? It's just like the Bucks, dude.
14:28
I just watched Mike Evans go down and then who was the other
14:31
receiver? Absolutely destroyed his leg.
14:33
Oh my. Gosh, he's been there a long.
14:37
Time I can't think of. Good one.
14:38
Yeah. Good one, Godwin.
14:40
Godwin. Godwin, Yeah.
14:41
Dude my gosh they just lost two massive receivers in.
14:44
One, they lost their two best receivers like.
14:46
And I saw Bubba breaking that down too.
14:48
You're talking. About I did, I saw, I did see
14:49
that. That's the only thing that I've
14:52
been able to keep up lately with the Bubba show and shout out to
14:56
Gary Cantrell and everybody that is putting out the Bubba
14:59
content. They pump that up.
15:01
That has definitely gotten pumped up on their socials and
15:05
that's how I've been able to keep up with them because I
15:07
just, I hadn't been able to watch the live show.
15:10
I've been on the road a lot and you know.
15:13
Just yeah, I have to. We've all been moving around.
15:18
Speaking of Gary Cantrell, I think he you found him on the
15:21
road, didn't you, Jr. He found you, I should say.
15:23
Yeah. Yep, Yep.
15:24
He came and saw me in Virginia, which that was.
15:27
I'll go ahead and tell that. I'll jump a week and go ahead
15:29
and tell that. So yeah, I've got to go to, I've
15:32
got to go to Doswell, VA on a Friday night for a show.
15:36
So I leave on a Thursday night or Thursday afternoon, go to
15:40
Pensacola, fly to Charlotte, got a couple hour layover about an
15:44
hour or so in. My flight's delayed in about
15:46
half an hour, then it gets delayed again.
15:48
Long story short, Lacey, I was supposed to be on this flight at
15:51
9:40. I finally get on the plane about
15:52
midnight. We taxi out, we sit on the
15:55
runway for a while, or first for we taxi out there working on the
15:58
plane. Oh, man.
16:00
And then finally we get to roll out.
16:02
We're in line to take off. A lot of planes in line to take
16:05
off. We start looping around like,
16:07
Yep, here we go about to kick back.
16:10
We keep turning, keep turning. Pilot comes on cruise out of
16:12
hours. We got to go back.
16:14
Yeah, my Lord. We go back to the gate.
16:17
By this point it's one in the morning, 1 something in the
16:19
morning. I just keep walking.
16:21
The line at the only line open at the airline information desk
16:26
is about 100 people long. If I just go get me AI, go get a
16:30
hotel and a cab and wait and call the airline waiting for
16:35
them to call me back, call my hotel where I was supposed to go
16:38
and cancel that room, let them know I wasn't going to be there.
16:40
Thank you Hilton for always understanding.
16:45
Think I'm going to get another flight.
16:47
So they because they put me on a flight like 5:00 AM by this
16:49
point, it's 2:00 in the morning. I'm like, I got to go down and
16:51
and nobody's going to be there when I, if I get there at 6:00
16:53
in the morning, my people. I mean, what am I going to do at
16:55
that point? Yeah, this is just crazy.
16:57
I got to go re regroup and I'm not that far away.
17:00
It's not like I'm on other side of the world.
17:01
I'm in panic mode either. I'm five hours driving.
17:05
I'd already looked at that and thought about renting a car and
17:07
thought, Nah, I'm just going to go ahead and take the flight.
17:09
Surely it'll happen. It only delayed once and I don't
17:11
care what time I get there because the show's tomorrow.
17:14
It'll leave it somewhere. Surely there's no weather, it's
17:16
just something is behind schedule for some reason.
17:19
So go online, start looking for flights.
17:23
No good options. Any good option was a connection
17:26
to Richmond because Richmond is not a big airport, so I didn't
17:29
want to go connect anywhere and try to get a rental car.
17:32
No rental cars, I guess because the hurricane, you know, they
17:36
would only rent them no less than three days and no one ways.
17:40
Dang. So I call U-Haul or I look up
17:43
U-Haul. Oh, you went you went, Boo.
17:44
Weekly route here. And I got to do I got a 10 foot
17:48
U-Haul box truck. No you didn't.
17:49
No cruise control and drove from Charlotte to Richmond.
17:53
What Friday? Morning you went.
17:56
Straight Boo Weekly. And got to our show that
17:59
afternoon and that's the night I met Gary Cantrell after I drove
18:02
the box truck, actually, Nick. Hey.
18:06
And Blasey, I loved y'all's podcast last last week, Tigs,
18:10
Blasey, and keep writing those songs.
18:12
Blasey, There's you One There's you, a country song right there
18:16
in a U-Haul box truck from Charlotte to Richmond.
18:19
That I mean that and look that we're going to do that
18:23
potentially potentially this week on a live Blasey's got some
18:30
songs I have another a couple that I need you to write a
18:32
Halloween theme one if you don't mind while.
18:35
We're just throwing it out there.
18:37
You. Just go ahead and write that
18:38
down. We're going to put that into our
18:40
TV show that you'll see our Halloween special that will be
18:43
appearing next week on Right Now TV.
18:46
So y'all are hearing this today on a Thursday or a Friday.
18:50
Next Wednesday we're going to have our Halloween special and
18:54
y'all may hear yeah, so we're going to have to get AAI song
18:59
for that. But Lacey and I've been talking
19:02
about a lot of things that we could do with this.
19:04
In fact, we jammed some in the studio loudly.
19:08
Over the house. We did.
19:10
We did. There's some good we Lacey has
19:13
about a full album now. Oh.
19:15
I do have a full album. He has a full album and like, I
19:18
think we're going to debut the album.
19:20
I don't know if it'll be this week.
19:22
It will be in the next two to three weeks potentially.
19:25
We're going to start, it's starting this week.
19:27
We're trickling something. You got to get Gary Cantrell to
19:30
shoot your album art. That's his.
19:32
Oh yeah, he'd be all. Over Absolutely.
19:35
Why wouldn't we? Sure, why would we not?
19:37
Man, he can. We had a blast.
19:39
He was cool. We had a good time.
19:40
He takes amazing photographs too, doesn't he?
19:43
Oh yeah, he has good stuff. Yeah, he's fine.
19:45
You. Can tell he had he he had full
19:47
as we have had full access to the stage and what that truly
19:52
means is you have full access to the stage.
19:55
But he he had he had the right camera to get some of those
20:00
really good shots. If you haven't checked out
20:02
Gary's, that's what we need. Instagram he needs.
20:05
Pictures of you guys in some setting, but like as like, yeah.
20:09
With some smoke and Oh yeah, you know, fireball lights maybe a
20:14
little bit. And I just always like that
20:17
smoky purple. Yeah.
20:18
Some alligators, some maybe some glowing eyes and.
20:21
Some. Crap traps, man.
20:24
Yeah, he can do that. I know he can he.
20:27
Could probably do that from a picture from our YouTube video
20:30
without us ever even coming to see him and like he probably
20:33
doesn't even have to take the picture he's.
20:35
That what if? What if we did it to where it's
20:36
a holographic thing where you turn it and it moves and it's
20:39
Blasey climbing up that rope? That raccoon.
20:44
Turn and Blasey goes up and down the road.
20:46
That was that was unbelievable. We blasey climbing a vine.
20:52
That that wasn't Vine, it was just coming out.
20:54
Of vine, vine it. Wasn't vine, it was a vine.
20:57
It was a straight up vine. And I mean, he was 25 feet in
21:01
the air, 2025 feet, wouldn't you say, Blasey, you're the one up
21:05
there. Yeah, when it when it, when it
21:06
got up there and it bifurcated, right.
21:08
So we got up there and it split that Y that's when I got a
21:10
little nervous because I was like, I don't want to keep going
21:12
on one of these because they get a little smaller.
21:14
Like the main stamp stalk was good when I got up there too.
21:17
I had to choose one and I was like, I don't.
21:19
Know choose your only picture. Yeah, yeah.
21:22
Go back, go back. Yeah, I almost, I wanted to just
21:25
disappear into the trees, like, you know, I'll not be able to
21:27
see me, but I was like, well, I may just get it there,
21:29
disappear, then fall down really fast, you know?
21:31
So yeah, they won't do that either.
21:33
So he broke the neighborhood record apparently held by like a
21:36
8 year old girl at the time, maybe 9 or 10 whenever.
21:40
Audrey, I think it was Audrey that that did that.
21:42
Quinn maybe also they're climbers.
21:45
They made it to the Y. He made it way past the.
21:49
Y Yeah, yeah. And that was his Y.
21:51
That was my wife's house. Yeah, I saw that.
21:53
But that might be cool. Yeah.
21:56
It could be if we could this, the lighting is so terrible, but
21:59
that was with with that camera. What was funny is when you're
22:02
climbing up, all of a sudden it just starts all this stuff
22:05
that's just coming at the camera.
22:07
What are you shaking out of that tree that's.
22:10
Crazy. I think that was raccoons that
22:12
were They're clapping above me because they were over the top.
22:14
I think they. Were.
22:15
Yeah, they were. My neighbors feed, feed the
22:18
raccoons, and they come out every night.
22:20
There's eight to 10 of them, Yeah.
22:24
There was an owl crazy in this number.
22:26
He was shaking his head out. He was just jealous is all.
22:33
He Oh man, Yeah. So we had a we had a good time.
22:37
He got to Blasey, came in town last Wednesday.
22:43
Yeah, I made a big road trip last week, so.
22:45
You went to the Troy game, huh? Yeah, stopped in Mobile on
22:48
Tuesday night, went over there for the Troy game.
22:50
So I had all this stuff to do. I had to be in Dallas so by
22:52
Friday. So yeah, what what the Troy game
22:55
Tuesday night spent the night there hooked up with, you know,
22:59
got over there just hanging out with Brett O'Reilly and all them
23:01
were were there dude, he had. To get into.
23:03
The chant and the whole deal. They.
23:05
Oh yeah. Randy Larson.
23:07
Randy Larson in. Town.
23:09
That was a great group of brothers right there.
23:13
It really was. It really was.
23:14
I'll tell you what I took. I mean, kudos to South Alabama
23:17
on a Tuesday night. They had that place packed out.
23:19
Man, they were rocking. They played good football.
23:21
We did not play good football. I left and watched it at half
23:25
time. I just knew we, I mean, I, I've
23:27
never really thought like this is just not good.
23:31
And until that day, like, you know, I've, I've sat through a
23:33
55 to three beating at Mississippi State, you know what
23:35
I mean, all the way to the end and still thought, let me see
23:37
what we could do. We're going to improve
23:38
somewhere. Now I just, there's no sign of
23:40
life here. I got to go.
23:42
So I left, but I kept watching it on TV.
23:44
But I'm going to leave here and get out of this because it's
23:46
kind of a tough place to leave. And but anyway, went out, got
23:48
out Wednesday, went over to Baton Rouge, got to hang out,
23:51
you know, with Tigs over there and we recorded a show.
23:54
I set out. He got the cool courtyard
23:55
outside. So I set up out there and then
23:57
he's inside. It was nice and got up the next
24:00
morning, went on to Dallas, got there, did my stuff on Friday in
24:04
Dallas, drove back, almost stopped in Longview, TX and got
24:09
a room in Longview just outside of Tyler, TX and Tyler and
24:12
Longview were playing high school football that night.
24:14
So I drove by the stadium and got out, went and took a picture
24:17
of all that action that was. Probably more people there than
24:20
Troy. South Alabama, dude.
24:21
It's crazy. It was, wow, it was so many
24:23
people were there. United Stadium was packed out.
24:25
That's big time Texas football, you know.
24:28
Texas football over there. Oh yeah.
24:29
Yeah, and you know, then anyway, stayed there, then got up
24:32
Saturday, went back to Baton Rouge, hung out there.
24:35
We watched football all day, got off in it, end up hanging out
24:39
with T Bob. You know they bear late at about
24:43
1:00 in the morning. Close down Duvix.
24:48
Yes, we did. Yeah, it's just got in it.
24:52
We did. It was a great road trip.
24:54
We got fireworks, just had a fun night.
24:56
Yeah. Shot fireworks, all that good
24:58
jazz. Yeah, there's a lot that
24:59
happened in between all that. Even did an A Beet of a Beer
25:02
tour on the way in. Stopped in Covington there.
25:06
Stopped at the Beet of Beer beer place, picked up some beer,
25:09
checked out that place. I made a little video on that.
25:11
I hadn't done anything with it yet.
25:12
I may put it on Patreon or something.
25:14
It is. I think I put it on Patreon.
25:16
I did. I did.
25:16
It is on Patreon. I sent it to you.
25:19
You did while. You were here.
25:21
Did not know that. Yeah, you sure did.
25:23
Well, good. Yeah.
25:23
Send. It to me and yeah, I put it out
25:26
on Patreon. I need to put it out other
25:27
places or whatever too. It's out there.
25:30
So yeah, y'all, yeah, it'll be out there by the time y'all are
25:33
listening, are here and there. Check it out.
25:34
Check it out. Go, go check out.
25:36
Lacy did a great job with that. Another thing that I mean,
25:40
there's a lot that has been going on.
25:42
I don't even have. I've got my notes here.
25:45
I've left out half of the stuff. It's just coming to me as we're
25:47
going. I mean, Blasey has been talking
25:51
to big bad Brad Johnson. Oh, wow.
25:54
They texted and. And with these AI songs, he made
25:58
a song for Brad Johnson and sent it to him.
26:01
Yeah. Brad loved it.
26:04
And the next thing we know, we have another editor in our realm
26:08
here. We have someone else.
26:10
He took the video, put it together.
26:14
He sent him Big Bad Brad, sent him all of the clips, he put it
26:17
all together, edited it, put the music to it, sent it to Big Bad
26:22
Brad, and that is the video that he posted.
26:25
Yep, that is it. That's it.
26:26
He sent me 16 clips and we put it all together, compressed it,
26:29
we actually. And I got it to where it would
26:31
line up perfectly and had to kind of move some stuff around
26:34
and then added all the titles to each of his shots because he
26:36
like the name. He he names his shots.
26:38
And then added that music on top it.
26:40
It was a big hit this past Friday.
26:42
Yeah, I love. It.
26:44
Yeah, yeah. So that's how it that was cool.
26:46
Yeah. Brad was pumped up.
26:47
That's what was funny when I sent him that song.
26:49
He started calling me last last week and he's like, you know,
26:54
calling me on the phone like, hey, let's talk.
26:55
And then so we're we're talking. He's a man.
26:57
I walked outside and my wife sitting by the pool.
26:59
He said. And I put I hit play on the
27:01
speaker, you know, came out and started dancing around.
27:03
I was like, well, dude, with my song playing.
27:06
He did. She had never heard at that time
27:07
of the first time. I think you should have recorded
27:10
that. Now.
27:10
That would have been fantastic. Absolutely.
27:13
Yes. He's a cool guy though.
27:15
He is cool. Like just think about where this
27:18
show is taking us, that we are just casually hanging out,
27:22
chatting with Super Bowl winning quarterbacks, helping them make
27:26
some videos. Occasionally.
27:29
You just don't know. You just got to turn the camera
27:32
on and let it RIP. You know, that's advice out
27:36
there to anybody who's watching this that thinks they could do a
27:39
podcast or wants to do a podcast or whatever, Guess what?
27:44
You can take your phone, take a microphone, get going with it.
27:49
Somebody wants, somebody needs to hear that out there.
27:51
Do it. Yeah, don't stop.
27:53
Just go do it. Who cares what people think,
27:55
man? You know what I mean?
27:56
Somebody wants to be a hater, let them hate, man.
27:58
Oh, you're going to get way more love.
27:59
You're going to get hate, but you're going to get it.
28:01
It's going to be, it's going to be minor, though.
28:03
It's it's less than 5%. You got to laugh it off, yes.
28:07
You can't focus on it. And that's something that we've
28:09
had to learn a little bit more along the way.
28:11
I think J Rs a little more seasoned with being out with a
28:14
veteran country act who he's seen all of this stuff in chats.
28:19
He's seen all of this stuff before.
28:22
We really haven't. So we've had to we've had to
28:24
learn a little bit more about how to kind of take on
28:28
criticism, which we we're more than willing to listen to
28:32
criticism. But then it gets to a point
28:33
where, oh, this guy's just. I feel sorry for this guy.
28:38
Yeah, I feel sorry. You know it's.
28:39
Like. He's poor dude, that's all he
28:41
can do is just harp on negative with somebody with what's wrong
28:44
with you buddy, you know? Yeah, just going to the next
28:47
one, I'll tell you the ones I feel sorry for and we might as
28:50
well use this time in the podcast to make APSA, are the
28:54
people who get scammed by these fake sites, fake account
28:59
managers, fan fake fan clubs, all these different things.
29:03
Know now that none of us will ever reach out to you asking you
29:06
for any personal information, no money, no Venmo, no, nothing
29:11
like that. There's only all of our accounts
29:14
are verified. If it comes from us.
29:16
If we do need to reach out for you, it'll be something to do
29:18
with the show. We'll send you an e-mail
29:20
address, but it'll be legit. If you're ever reading a, if
29:24
you're reading something that someone's proposing to you to be
29:27
from some artist or talent OR entertainers or sports or teams
29:33
account manager or, or secret account or anything like that,
29:37
that should always be a red flag.
29:39
First off, if they're reaching out to you, unless you've signed
29:42
up for something or had some kind of correspondence with
29:45
someone in the organization before.
29:48
Secondly, if the, if there's broken grammar in there, if the
29:51
words don't lay out right, if there's AV and it should have
29:54
been a that, that's, that's usually a good sign.
29:58
You know, if someone refers to themselves.
30:00
Hey, this is me, the great world famous Justin Bieber.
30:04
It's probably not Justin Bieber talking about himself like that.
30:07
So just remember that to just it's a little stuff and
30:11
proofread people's things. If you hear somebody you know
30:13
talking about it, obviously we've talked about it because
30:15
the guy on Bubba is convinced he's dating.
30:19
Carrie Underwood. So, but if you can and you're
30:23
and you're capable and you know someone's in a situation like
30:26
they get their phone, try to disable it, turn it off, do
30:28
whatever you got to do. You'd rather be mad at you than
30:31
them give away their entire life savings to fake Post Malone or
30:35
whatever. So just want to use that time
30:37
and everybody know none of us are ever going to reach out to
30:39
you for your personal information for any reason.
30:41
Don't talk to these people. Just block them.
30:44
I wouldn't even and don't take screenshots.
30:46
Don't it will unless you correspond with them.
30:48
Take screenshots, but just don't acknowledge them.
30:50
Just block, cancel report. Don't don't say hey, who are
30:54
you? I know them don't just don't
30:56
argue with them. Don't do any of that.
30:57
Just block, kill it, get away and stay on your toes.
31:01
I had, I had a couple credit cards get get compromised.
31:05
I guess recently I had a call from my bank a couple days ago
31:07
or, or actually a text message and an e-mail.
31:10
That's how you're normally going to get your info these days and
31:13
it's from the government. It's going to be in the mail.
31:16
So anyway, just PSA out there y'all watch out for scammers.
31:21
This is the holiday season they're on.
31:22
They're on overtime right now. It sounds too good to be true.
31:25
It probably is. Go up there and click on the
31:28
e-mail address it came from if it's a bunch of weird letters
31:30
and numbers and it's not. If it doesn't say the exact
31:33
people you're looking for, it ain't them.
31:36
And and the main thing, it sounds too good to be true.
31:38
It probably is. It really is out.
31:40
There everybody watch out for your older relatives, family
31:44
members and young ones too. All that just y'all all look out
31:46
for each other. Hey, and Speaking of like, you

32:44
going to make a video out of them.
32:46
I. Like it.
32:47
I like it. I like it.
32:47
I would. Like more we need a few more to
32:50
kind of finish this out. So order some hats, send us a
32:53
picture, send us Adm on where that whatever social media
32:57
platform you prefer. So yeah, we're we're rocking and
33:01
rolling, man. Working on some new shirts too,
33:04
boys. Yeah.
33:07
Some new shirts, so these hats. These hats.
33:10
Feel great. These are the good hats.
33:11
If shirts are as good as the hats, I can't wait because these
33:13
are. These are some good hats.
33:15
I love these. Hats.
33:16
They are so good. We need.
33:17
To get Justin Moore one of those and have him take a picture with
33:20
it, it'd really help the show. We'd like to add him.
33:22
I'm just throwing that out there.
33:24
Just throwing it out there. We know a guy for sure.
33:27
We know a guy Speaking of podcast stuff, I know that that
33:32
you may be caught up a little bit.
33:33
JRI The only thing that I started listening to and I
33:36
started listening to it today was Graham Hancock was on Joe
33:40
Rogan, I think last Thursday. I'm about an hour into that
33:45
deal. And that was after his rebuttal
33:48
or his debate with that Flint guy that apparently just
33:55
butchered everything up and all of that.
33:57
But man, how interesting is that cat?
34:00
Well, you know, and there's A and there's a correlation.
34:03
I watched the 1st 2 episodes of the season 2 the Americas.
34:07
It's not called season 2. It's just called the Americas of
34:10
ancient civilizations. And so I watched 2 episodes of
34:14
that. Then listen to that episode.
34:17
Oh, because the I did get that when I drove to short when I
34:19
drove to Richmond, I had some window time and then Sunday I
34:22
drove from Atlanta home, so I had five hours there.
34:26
So I I did get those two tech chances I used and did get some
34:29
podcasting in. But yes, I watched 2 episodes of
34:31
that new Y'all wait till you watch that.
34:33
Wait till what they found down there in Brazil and stuff.
34:35
It's amazing. He talks.
34:37
About I have not watched it yet. I cannot wait.
34:38
Yeah. It's so good, so good.
34:41
And watch it. Either, yeah, that I've got to
34:42
definitely jump into it. There's sure seems that dude's
34:46
just beyond interesting. Obviously super, super smart,
34:49
way smarter than me, way smarter than all three of us combined,
34:53
honestly. But man, they just say there's
34:56
just no way that I can't be convinced that there wasn't some
35:01
type of a of an ancient, smarter, smart civilization at
35:05
some point in time because they just did too many things that
35:09
are impossible without machines and stuff.
35:13
You know, just like. Or some kind?
35:15
Of fibers and things that are perfectly 1mm for all of you
35:19
know, just stuff like that that couldn't be done without some
35:22
type of modern. 50,000 ton stones move 20 miles and place
35:26
perfectly. Cut perfectly How 3. 100.
35:30
Feet in the but this is the craziest thing y'all the this is
35:33
the the quick the quick thing that'll get you interested.
35:35
Want to watch this series? The Americas ancient
35:38
civilizations is that the, the, the thought process and the
35:43
teachings and the beliefs are that the Americas are the newest
35:46
of the inhabited continents, that the cradle of life is
35:51
Africa and everyone spread from there, the tectonic plates
35:56
moving, shifting things around Australia, different places,
36:01
things like that. But so the Americans were just
36:04
always thought of as the last place we're here when now
36:07
they're uncovering things. We, we don't even know.
36:09
And I'm not saying it's the reverse, but it could be.
36:11
It'll change the it'll change the history books.
36:13
If once they put some money, basically it boils down to money
36:15
and research. Once they can really get down
36:17
and dig into this stuff, they'll know more.
36:18
But the funding is not there because it's just the notion
36:22
that we're there's no reason to look here.
36:24
But they're, you know, quick way to think about this.
36:27
So cutting down the rainforest in Brazil, terrible, terrible
36:31
thing to do. We don't need to do that.
36:33
But what it's uncovered is there's a lot of things laid
36:35
under that forest we've never seen before because it's been
36:38
buried under that forest. And people seeing them from
36:41
airplanes. Now they're using a LIDAR to go
36:43
over the forest so you can see the forest floor without the
36:46
trees. And there are thousands of these
36:49
enormous, perfectly symmetrical things all throughout this, just
36:53
this one little county in Brazil or 1 little piece of Brazil
36:57
they're looking at. So, and check this out.
37:00
How about all the trees? Most of all the trees in the
37:03
Amazon are there and they're some kind of something you can
37:07
eat. They're like whatever the word
37:08
for that is, or like edible trees, whatever you use that,
37:11
there's something you can use them for.
37:12
So now there might not even be like human beings may have
37:15
planted the Amazon rainforest. That's what kind of what I was
37:19
taking away from listen to him. Because they found samples of
37:23
the soil that that show that they that that type of mixture
37:28
could only be made by humans. Like it doesn't happen
37:30
naturally. Like where they use manure and
37:32
stuff like that to fertilize. And made their own super soil.
37:36
Yeah. And so.
37:38
And they're talking about and Blasey there, I'll tell you the
37:41
other one. I can go on with this for days.
37:44
White Sands, New Mexico. They start digging down, they
37:47
find footprints. They're thinking some of these
37:49
could be 100,000 years old. If that goes down, all the
37:53
history words are wrong. You know what I'm saying?
37:56
And that's crazy. That's the whole thing is.
37:58
With Hancock, yeah, yeah, that narrative that the
38:03
archaeologists and all of those people that, that, that Flint
38:06
dude, whatever his name is, I can't remember his last name,
38:09
but that, that he's with, you know, they don't want that
38:12
narrative to change. They don't.
38:14
They want to be on the right side of it.
38:18
So they're fighting it tooth and nail and just, and somebody like
38:22
Graham Hancock's just wanting a conversation to happen
38:25
scientifically. Let's look at this like just you
38:29
got to be open minded. And for open minded people,
38:31
they're awfully close minded, you know?
38:34
I agree, yeah. Very interesting stuff.
38:36
Y'all dig into that, listen to Joe Rogan and go, go check that
38:40
out. You can listen to.
38:41
I mean, that can take up your full day.
38:43
You can start with a Graham Hancock from like 4-5, six years
38:47
ago. He lays out stuff.
38:49
Every single show I've watched of him, there's I learned
38:52
something new. He doesn't repeat himself a ton,
38:56
and neither does Joe Rogan, You know, I mean, that's just great
39:00
shows that they put on. Yeah.
39:02
Speaking of Joe Trump's going Trump.
39:06
I saw that I got announced today, right?
39:08
Yeah. Well, I I just saw, I just saw
39:12
on a smart list had on the the governor of Minnesota is on
39:16
smart list this week, the Jason Bateman.
39:20
Yeah, you know the three guys, Sean Hayes.
39:22
And what's his name? Yep, Yep, I love.
39:24
He was on there so everybody's everybody's throwing their darts
39:28
at the board all at the last time for the timer goes off.
39:31
That's right. I think it's a smart move.
39:34
Like I, I'm extremely interested to hear what Trump says on
39:38
Rogan, though, above all of them that he's been on.
39:40
They're all kind of, I mean, let's be honest, they're all
39:43
kind of blowing him and it's just softball questions.
39:47
The, the best one that I've seen him on was the Undertaker.
39:51
Did you see that he was on with the Undertaker?
39:54
That's not the under podcast. Really, really, really good,
39:58
Trump interviewed. Trump interviewed the undertaker
40:02
for about the 1st 15 minutes of the interview.
40:04
He just had kept having questions for him.
40:07
He's like. I'm so sorry.
40:08
They knew each other from they knew each other from they knew
40:11
each other. That make I'm just thinking,
40:12
well, they already knew each other.
40:13
That's good. They already knew each other.
40:15
What's what's he going to say? What's Trump going to say after
40:17
he goes on Rogan huge. Biggest one ever.
40:20
And it will be. That'll be the big.
40:21
Believe me, believe me, guys, just believe me.
40:25
You think he's gonna win? The biggest one surprise,
40:27
though? He gonna show up with a sack of
40:29
McDonald's. I mean, he turned McDonald's out
40:31
overnight, didn't he? Rogan will probably try to get
40:34
him an elk sandwich or something.
40:36
Yeah, exactly. But there's don't y'all think
40:39
that'll be a huge numbers when a Rogan?
40:41
I mean, I think it should be huge, right?
40:44
I think it truly will be the biggest in the history of a
40:46
podcast because to you don't know, Joe Rogan is going to ask
40:52
him stuff that no one else will, that no one else has had the
40:56
balls. To Do Bernie was on Rogan a
40:59
couple years ago and that was a good podcast.
41:01
It was good and he. We have to listen to what they
41:04
like to say, but they're the podcast.
41:06
The interaction, the conversation was a great way to
41:08
get to know. Someone.
41:09
Bernie's real, dude. Like what?
41:11
You agree with him, you don't agree with him.
41:12
Bernie's real. He's.
41:14
Always appreciated him. Yeah, yeah.
41:16
He's entertaining to listen to and I pretty much half ass
41:19
believe everything that he says in some form or fashion.
41:22
Like it. He's believable, that's what
41:25
that's why he resonates with people so well.
41:28
If he just wasn't so old and crazy looking, he probably would
41:31
have had a chance, let's be honest.
41:32
I mean, it is what it is. Like Tim Waltz.
41:35
Ain't helping the Harris campaign either.
41:37
He's kind of like a he. He's just not helping.
41:40
I just don't think he's helping them not.
41:42
If he if he, he can't look like Mr. Burns here.
41:45
But we've had it ingrained to us for all these years that Mister
41:49
Burns is a mean boss man. We don't like Mr. Burns, That's
41:51
exactly right. That's it.
41:54
That's exactly right. Have you all seen any of the
41:57
Saturday night lives here recently that have been on since
42:01
the new season started? Because this is when.
42:04
They're the best. I have not said I don't watch
42:05
their Night Live that much anymore.
42:07
I'll see like a skit or two when something comes across.
42:09
It gets like gets a little run. But I don't sit down and watch
42:13
the show in years. I, it's not been the best and
42:16
I've been sad, sad to me because there's they have Maya Rudolph
42:21
playing Harris, which is she's always done a great job of it
42:26
and she's perfect for it and she's funny with it.
42:29
But they brought in, they brought in Dana.
42:31
Carvey, Yeah. Dana Carvey did Biden.
42:33
They brought in Dana Carvey on the stage, yes.
42:35
I didn't see that. Yes, and nobody has done a
42:38
better Dana Carvey than a better Biden than Dana Carvey has done
42:43
it for the last three or four years because like, like I've
42:45
told y'all, fly on the Wall, one of my favorite podcasts.
42:49
Well, he's been doing the imitation that whole time, but
42:52
he and he said it on, on one of his recent shows.
42:56
It was once Biden after that debate and he got out.
43:02
Then for some reason, all of a sudden it was OK for America to
43:06
make fun of Biden and laugh about it.
43:08
And and it was like, but he's right.
43:11
It really is true. Because he was no longer he was
43:14
no longer the reason Trump may or may not win.
43:19
Directly. So now they opened up the gate,
43:21
so he can do that now. Now it's OK, it's acceptable.
43:24
It's acceptable for him to go do that now.
43:25
He's having fun with it. When he used to do George Bush,
43:29
it was so good, you know? Nope, not going to happen.
43:31
Thousand Points of Light. Got that, Got that.
43:35
Got that? Got.
43:36
That, yeah. He's.
43:40
Just so good. He's just so good.
43:42
But I think from what I've seen with the I've just watched the
43:46
opens every week of that that the cold open and they've been
43:51
good, but they haven't been what they have been in other election
43:55
years, you know, So I think I think everybody's just kind of
43:59
getting tired of this cast characters of Trump, Biden,
44:02
Harris, Obama still in there and, you know.
44:05
The Trump thing, they've been on Trump and this has been like,
44:08
there's, there's people, there's, I mean, there's kids in
44:11
middle school that have never known a world where people
44:13
weren't making Trump jokes. Oh, yeah, that's my son.
44:18
My son is known who Donald Trump was his whole life and that like
44:24
he doesn't know him as the guy from The Apprentice or the guy
44:28
that had a board game in the 80s like we do.
44:31
It's just, you know, all of the stuff that we would see on TV
44:35
about Trump and all that. It'll be like a 15 year run when
44:39
if, if he were to win, right? You know what I mean, 'cause you
44:41
got the first, you know, the first election year.
44:43
He had four years and he missed down on four years.
44:45
He was still there and then hanging around.
44:47
Now he's campaigning again. Now we got another four years,
44:49
1415 year run. That's kind of crazy.
44:51
It's really never happened. Like what?
44:53
Once or twice or something maybe?
44:54
And SNL has been going to go away, but you know, and it's
44:57
went down and up, but who knows? I tell you what we were talking
45:01
about this other day. I asked Cherise what her
45:02
favorite was. She likes like the Chris Farley
45:05
era stuff was her favorite. Tell you, I'm a little bit for
45:08
that. One of my one of my favorites
45:10
back in the day was Tuensis the driving cat.
45:13
Do y'all remember that with Kevin Nealon?
45:15
Of course it was a dude. It was a cat that they'd always
45:17
let cat drive the car. It was like a great Caprice.
45:20
And then they'd be Oh, you're doing so good.
45:21
I watch out Tuensis. They've over the Cliff,
45:24
everything. I don't know why that sticks
45:26
out, but I I still laugh thinking about Tuensis the
45:28
driving gas. That was a good one.
45:31
Oh, that's so good. Church lady, you know all.
45:34
That stuff, Church lady. I, I think my favorite era is
45:37
probably, and look, we could do a whole show on Saturday Night
45:40
Live. That's actually been on a show
45:42
list that I've had since I started doing the podcast and
45:46
still haven't done it. Just a Saturday Night Live show.
45:49
But we need to put a little more time and an effort into it than
45:52
just free balling this whole deal like we're spit balling
45:56
like we're doing but. Yes, we could.
45:58
It's got. To be like late late 80s, eighty
46:00
8 to like 92 would be my run. And that incorporates Toots's
46:05
Phil Hartman, Dana Carvey, some of the Jon Lovett, some of those
46:10
Dennis Miller, all of those guys.
46:12
And then it brings in Adam Sandler.
46:15
The Masters, that's. Just I mean that old cast of
46:20
character that gives me chill bumps.
46:22
I love them so. Much Tim Meadows.
46:24
They mean so much to me. Tim Meadows, The Ladies Man and
46:28
all the movies that spun off from those in the 90's.
46:32
The Coneheads movie. And all the way up to MacGyver.
46:35
I mean Macgruber and stuff. I mean.
46:38
That's right, That's right. There's a They're making Happy
46:41
Gilmore too that is in production currently.
46:45
Dude, I talked to daily the other week at this event I was
46:48
at and daily. Oh yeah.
46:49
He's going to be in it, I think. Yeah, he's in it, dude.
46:52
Hanging out with daily is a trip.
46:53
That dude is a Wildman, I'll tell you that.
46:55
Yeah. Yeah.
46:56
So there's no, there's no. And I've been around him several
46:59
times and he, he, he ain't slowing down.
47:01
He's nuts it now I how many how many he drinks so.
47:06
Got his own seltzer drink now. Yeah, that's, is that what he
47:09
was drinking that night? Oh my.
47:11
God Jr. sent us a picture. I didn't ask can we put that
47:14
out? Can we put this pit, those
47:15
pictures out on socials or no, maybe.
47:19
Yeah. Well, if you decide we can, we
47:21
will. But they're great.
47:22
They were J DS. I think it was just party like
47:26
playing. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
47:28
Joe and Justin, and that's and. Daley, John.
47:31
Daley's in the background Man cave.
47:33
Daley's bus is like an Arkansas man's cave on wheels.
47:37
That's what I thought. I look, I zoomed in on the
47:39
pictures and it's looking. I was like that.
47:42
That's definitely, that's definitely John Daly's bus
47:45
because I saw the pictures, a picture of him with Trump.
47:49
Full How many beers? How many?
47:50
Beers, John Daly, Seltzer's pizza, chicken wings, and
47:54
Marlboro Reds. Damn John Daly.
47:57
Don't keep a John Daly don't keep an extra pack of cigarettes
48:00
on him. He keeps two or three extra
48:02
packs. I saw him sitting on his body,
48:04
never had less than 3 packs sitting around him because I
48:06
don't know why. I guess he's just afraid he's
48:08
going to run out. Is he hilarious?
48:10
Is he chain smoke one after the other?
48:13
I mean. I mean, did you, have you ever
48:15
seen him not? Have 3 tigs.
48:17
He had to have 3 packs with him at all times.
48:18
I mean, he wasn't. Believable.
48:20
Yeah, and I'm talking about he drank ain't no tell.
48:23
I mean, I ain't calling him a man out.
48:24
He he, everybody knows Daley's he's out there, but he was fine.
48:27
I mean, we were still, I mean he was still last one kicking.
48:29
Next day he was probably up kicking somebody's ass and golf.
48:32
I mean, he's a. He's a.
48:32
Freaking I watched him do this fifty try to break 50 with
48:37
Dechambeau. He drank like 18 to 20 of those
48:42
seltzer's in that round and and I mean like legit and he he
48:49
doesn't care. He told them and he'd he'd drink
48:52
a day. He was like something like 3032
48:55
sometimes. Yeah, just depend like in a day.
48:58
And he's still just played barefooted.
49:02
And they did they, I think they, I think they shot 50.
49:06
They may have shot 51, but I mean, it wasn't because he was
49:09
drinking. Oh, that's great.
49:10
He had no problems. Unreal.
49:12
I got a great inside story. I'll tell you guys whenever
49:14
we're not recording, but maybe OK, so y'all stay tuned for that
49:18
one day. But now that was a cool event
49:19
too. I went to the other week up in
49:21
Huntsville. We went to a they recorded an
49:23
event for Dean Dillon, legendary songwriter.
49:27
Oh yeah. A lot of people who had recorded
49:29
with him and recorded his songs over the years come and do a big
49:31
show in like a celebration of his career, which was awesome.
49:36
I mean, it was a who's who. I mean, it was George Strait,
49:39
Brooks and Dunn, Justin, John Riley, Randy, Jamie, Leanne
49:45
Womack. I mean, you just.
49:47
Wow, You know who I was happy to see was in that, in that back
49:51
row in there? Oh, Zach Top made it as he.
49:54
Oh, yeah. Zach Top got to meet him
49:56
finally. He was cool.
49:57
He's good. You got to have been nicer.
49:59
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We chopped it up.
50:01
Him and Justin. Him and Justin and Riley Green
50:03

50:09
Oh. That's.
50:10
Great man, leave them boys alone and let them sing their songs.
50:14
That's a Dean Dillon tune. Wow.
50:17
And Dean Dillon wrote 13 George Strait number ones.
50:20
Right, Yeah, we went when we did one of these live shows, We we,
50:24
we broke down. I don't you weren't a part of
50:27
that. One was like, this is what he
50:28
just did last night. And we like, you know, this song
50:32
boom, boom, boom, boom. Like, yeah, these are these are
50:35
country standards. Oh yeah, yeah, they're not just
50:38
hit songs. Their standards.
50:41
And he'll be here at the Flora Bama in November at the Frank
50:43

Songwriters Festival, everybody out there, Google it, whatever,
50:57
look it up, put a pin or something, check that out
51:00
because that's something to catch if you want to catch some
51:02
legends and some cool songs and the people who wrote them.
51:05
And is that the floor of Bama I mean?
51:08
I'm have to hit that back up on the way back from New Orleans or
51:11
or from Baton Rouge, going over there again with JD so.
51:14
Yes, he is. Yes, he is telling Jr. what's
51:17
happening. We're going to do a tale from
51:19
the tailgate, like collaborating J DS going with me.
51:23
He's going to be we're going to go down there.
51:25
Yes, me and JD, we're going down there.
51:27
Going this should be. Interesting.
51:28
We're going we're going to the to the Bama LSU game and
51:32
tailgate and doing all the action.
51:34
JD's got these visions of New Orleans on Thursday night first,
51:37
which is fine. JD is going to be like Weekend
51:40
at Bernie's. You're going to have to get you
51:42
2 sets of handcuffs, one in the wrist and one in the ankle.
51:44
You just have to hand load JD around.
51:46
He'll hang in there. So he's going to be.
51:48
I got a prediction he'll be zombified.
51:51
Zombie, He's going to have a good time.
51:53
He's been pumped up. I talked to him.
51:55
He called. He called.
51:56
Me. And then he's he's, he's ready
52:00
to rock'n'roll, that's for damn sure.
52:02
And he's. Alleged.
52:05
He's a legend. He's to me he's a legend.
52:07
That's why I like Blaze. He's picking up JD.
52:08
That's the more legendary picap shit.
52:10
That right there, that's awesome.
52:12
And imagine the four of us on campus getting tails from the
52:15
tails from the tailgate content. I mean, we're doubling up.
52:21
It's the biggest game of the year.
52:23
You have a, you have a microphone for Blasey to hold.
52:26
I got 1. I got my whole set up now, yeah.
52:29
Right, he's got the whole set up.
52:30
We'll have ours. So we'll we'll get back to the
52:33
Casa Tigs post game and and air drop all of their videos to my
52:40
phone so I can have them and then we'll be able to chop them
52:42
up. Oh yeah.
52:43
We we, we ought to get them all weekend.
52:45
We ought to get some small just plain Tigs bit stickers and give
52:49
them out. When you're doing that stuff,
52:50
everybody you talk to, hand them one.
52:53
That's a great idea. That's a great.
52:54
Because we start branding that one just around campus.
52:56
At least then they'll know what tails from the tailgate is.
52:59
You can even tigs bits tigs from the tailgate and hand them to
53:01
people like it's a gift, you know, like it's a token.
53:04
Great idea. Lacy, you think you can talk to
53:05
our printing? Little little.
53:08
Rust little yes sweet stickers stickers stickers stickers just.
53:12
Purple and I had an idea too. I had an idea too.
53:15
Why don't we get a Google or some kind of phone line, like a
53:19
Google line or something, whatever, something that you can
53:21
do and we can tell people to call us and leave us messages
53:23
and questions. Fantastic idea.
53:26
Great idea. We'll put that down, too.
53:28
Because we'll play and if you leave us a message, we'll play
53:31
it over the air. And if you say sweet Dan, we'll
53:33
we'll play it over there and talk about it.
53:36
Great idea. Nothing.
53:37
Vulgar or illegal? Nothing.
53:39
Illegally More. We're going to hear you can
53:42
bring all the vulgar and illegal stuff you want to talk about,
53:45
but it ain't going to get aired. But I mean, I'd love to hear it
53:50
very well make it edited and aired.
53:52
I mean, I just. Want to hear all the I?
53:53
Put a guy who said like 8F bombs and the R word and with like 8
53:58
seconds is a short video but I found a way to get it out there.
54:02
I'm not going to do that to these lovely young ladies who
54:05
had as bad of a potty mouth as that cat did.
54:08
I'm not going to make them look bad in front of their parents
54:11
because I got a feeling they might find.
54:13
Them. You got to be delicate with some
54:16
of the footage that you get from Tails from the tailgate.
54:18
Man, you do. Can't wait, Can't wait.
54:21
We can't wait, but I think that I think, I think the stickers
54:23
would be a good one and I think the the the phone in line, if
54:26
people could call and leave us voicemail, I think that would be
54:28
cool. JRD, have you listened to spread
54:31
quarters with Hold the Mayo? I don't.
54:35
I don't know if you even know who Hold the Mayo is.
54:38
All right, Hold the Mayo's Saints fan.
54:40
He does this thing every every Monday where he goes and reviews
54:44
red beans and rice like that's his.
54:46
I hadn't seen it. He's on, like, date.
54:48
I'll send it to you. You're going to love this guy.
54:50
I should. Have come to my house Last night
54:52
I made red beans and rice. But anyway, I know exactly what
54:54
you're talking about. Yeah.
54:55
Yes, I think I've shown you some stuff of his.
54:58
Well, he does this show spread quarters after the after Saints
55:03
games and it's a call in show, but it's like the old school
55:07
Buddy D shows used to be. It's set for unfiltered and no
55:11
commercial breaks. Oh wow, it is.
55:15
It is glorious. Some of the stuff that he gets
55:18
you mentioned in that phone line.
55:20
Blasey and I talked about this the other night when we were
55:23
just hanging out. We want to get to where we start
55:26
going live and maybe have call insurance.
55:29
We do something special or we're watching a ball game or
55:31
something. And people.
55:33
Call in SO. It'll be fun.
55:35

55:38
will be getting that equipment soon.
55:40
So that that yeah, can. Have those call in shows nothing
55:44
better. I love a good old call in show.
55:47
First time caller, long time listener John.
55:50

56:02
face on these for the Dean Dillon deal.
56:04
Yes, they did. Oh, yeah, I'm going to tell
56:06
y'all I've been around Trump before.
56:08
It's easy to get around Trump than this George Strait.
56:14
I ain't shooting. I know his head of security.
56:17
I promise you, I, I think he's good.
56:18
I don't think anybody's ever getting around straight or
56:20
around straight unless they want him to be he's they got his shot
56:23
out up buddy. He definitely looks like he
56:25
skips leg day, that's for damn sure.
56:27
From that pictures let. Me tell you all this though,
56:30
when he's on stage, when he's walking backstage, when he's
56:32
looking at you, when he's moving and he's doing anything, it's
56:35
perfect. I'm just saying everything he
56:38
does, I don't know, he's just perfect, man.
56:40
I'm talking about the way he sways through the room, the way
56:42
he moves his head, the way he looks at people, the way
56:45
everything he does when he's on stage, just everything is his.
56:50
His Gale coming off the stage, walking to go to the ramp,
56:52
though, just he just he's, he's flawless.
56:56
He's like, he's Michael Jordan of I mean, he's just, I don't
56:59
know what you could do any better.
57:01
Did you, have you ever talked to him?
57:03
Are you just simply, you can't get that close?
57:05
Nobody talks. To No, you could.
57:07
Yeah, it it could happen. I haven't.
57:09
I've been. I was, I was.
57:11
I mean, I, I mean, we brush by each other because I'm standing
57:14
there as he and his team are leaving out of the thing.
57:16
And I probably could, but I just, I mean, that's one I'm
57:19
I'm, I'm starstruck around him for real.
57:21
I'm gonna have to. It's gonna have to be a special
57:22
deal around him. Yeah.
57:24
There's no, there's no. I'm Justin Moore's.
57:27
Stars. I bet Justin Moore's starstruck
57:30
around here. Everybody in there was, yeah,
57:32

57:37
He seems like a nice guy. I told parties head of security.
57:41
I was like, buddy, let me tell you, every white woman over 30
57:44
in the world likes George Strait.
57:46
I'm just telling you, they're there for the city.
57:49
Where from? They're their country and and
57:51
probably most any lady of any color.
57:53
But I know because my mom and I've always, I mean, just George
57:58
Strait is the man when it comes to that.
58:00
All the women think George Strait is the big dog.
58:03
And for us dudes, he always looked sharp.
58:05
He's a real cowboy. He sang all the songs, got all
58:08
the girls. He's the coolest guy.
58:09
I mean, it's just. That's who you want to be
58:10
straight. His clothes, his outfits are
58:14
always his shirts, his pants. I mean his boots.
58:17
I mean, he is just his hat is he looks like he, I mean he's got
58:20
that perfect tan all the time. There's nothing out of place.
58:23
It's we saw him going to sound check when we when we opened for
58:26
him a few years ago. He was walking from his bus to
58:30
get on a golf cart to take him in the building to do sound
58:32
check. And he comes off the bus and
58:34
this is the most dressed down I've ever seen him in like
58:36
tennis shoes, blue jeans, like a a hoodie, had a backpack and he
58:40
had a book in his hand. As he comes by us.
58:42
It's almost like he could see us through the tinted windows on
58:44
the bus staring at him, watching him, you know, because he's
58:48
looking up at us. And we noticed the book he's
58:50
got. It's it's a Merle Haggard book.
58:52
He's going to the stage to do sound check with his Merle
58:55
Haggard book in on a golf course.
58:57
George Strait. I'm like, man.
58:58
Ain't that crazy, Ain't. No, that's the coolest thing
59:00
I've ever seen in my entire life.

59:06
No, that's great, dude. That's great.
59:09
Wow, I got I got a little George or George Strait starstruck
59:12
talking about him. That's how powerful he is.
59:14
