- 0:17in the top corner? I don't know what he's.
- 0:19What's this guy doing here? Didn't even tease him.
- 0:22Just jumped in. What happened is we gave him the
- 0:24link a few weeks ago and he said you know what, I understand it's
- 0:27the same link each time so I'm just going to pop in every time
- 0:30we hear y'all going live. I'm a podcast.
- 0:32Crasher. That's exactly what you are.
- 0:35I love it though. I wouldn't have it any other
- 0:38way, man. Welcome Mr. Austin Dennis back
- 0:40to Tigs Bits. He's becoming a regular fixture
- 0:44and it's going to be a regular fixture, so get used to it
- 0:48because it's too good. Well, have you been whipping up
- 0:51this week, Austin? I know you've got something that
- 0:54you haven't even released probably.
- 0:56I've posted some older content and I've done one video this
- 0:59week so been taking it easy. Been in the office a lot so
- 1:01hopefully tomorrow and Saturday I'll get some good content at
- 1:04LSU, but just taking a mental break.
- 1:09You got to do that every now and then, don't you, As a content
- 1:11creator? Hey, I'll tell you what I did,
- 1:14what I did last Sunday up here. Props.
- 1:16We've had a little rotation. Some people just bring because
- 1:19they have food and stuff up here, food trucks.
- 1:20But people just bring stuff in like Big rust smoke, some wings.
- 1:25And then Sutton, he brought in some wet wings.
- 1:27We had some dry rub wings and stuff like that.
- 1:30And then so last weekend on Sunday, I brought in what?
- 1:33None other than the Connect a sausage burn insurance.
- 1:36And I'll tell you what, that was a crowd pleaser, brother.
- 1:38Yes, Sir. They are absolutely money.
- 1:41Yeah. Already and and I've watched
- 1:44this video too, Austin and I love it.
- 1:46My neighbor just continues to call them burn insurance.
- 1:50And I'm going to be honest with you, as a brisket guy, I'm
- 1:54sensitive like that's a, that's a, that's a, it's a trigger for
- 1:58me. But you word it correctly and I
- 2:00have no problems with the video and it is delicious.
- 2:04It's amazing, especially with the fine, fine kaneka sausage
- 2:10out. There, we've talked about this
- 2:11before saying that they're burn insurance trigger so many people
- 2:15so you have to call. It does exactly.
- 2:18I really need to call them sausage bites, but that's not
- 2:21going to catch anybody's attention.
- 2:22No, you got to use burn insurance.
- 2:24And then my neighbor just rubs it in my face.
- 2:26Shout out to Shane if he's watching, he loves it.
- 2:29He loves it because he knows every time it's like he's making
- 2:31a cast. Tiggy going bite help it.
- 2:35They're coming. Embrace.
- 2:38The hate Austin's so good at finding these words.
- 2:42I love, I love reading the comments and people just the
- 2:47more we get into this and the more that we've had some videos
- 2:50that do well. I I told my sister today some
- 2:53Jackass is arguing in in the Tigs bits private discussion.
- 2:59I don't even know what he's talking about.
- 3:00I don't understand it, but it's cool.
- 3:02Appreciate him. My sister texts me.
- 3:05He's like, what is this? And I said, and no offense, Sir,
- 3:09Our Lady, if if you're hearing this, but I'm like, you know
- 3:12what, the more exposure we get, the more I realize the Dumber
- 3:17people can get. It's just like the bigger the
- 3:20video goes, the Dumber the comments.
- 3:23And I think you you can attest to that, Austin.
- 3:25It's insane. You just got to embrace the
- 3:27criticism, man. And you know, when you start
- 3:29seeing that, you know your video is doing well.
- 3:31It's not. I mean, it's very rare that
- 3:33you're getting 2 or 3000 views and you're seeing multiple
- 3:36hateful comments when you're getting those hateful comments
- 3:39back-to-back to back. And what's good about it is they
- 3:41invite other people to come in and tag along with a similar
- 3:45brand of hate. And then other people start
- 3:48arguing with all these arguments start going on in the comments
- 3:52and that just explodes algorithm too.
- 3:54So I'm all about it. Please talk about me being
- 3:57overweight. Talk about me having a dad vibe.
- 4:00Talk about me. Sweating.
- 4:02Anything you want please, it's all free game.
- 4:05I'm happy with it. I love that.
- 4:06I freaking love that man. And and that's exactly that's, I
- 4:10mean it's. Just a great brand of hate.
- 4:14That's what you got to do. I had a so crazy last night.
- 4:19I had a good visit. I'm I'm working over here in
- 4:21Lafayette, as you can see, hotel rooming it once again.
- 4:24And, and her name is Sierra and she's into marketing.
- 4:28She's a creator. All this stuff, we went into
- 4:31deep dives on different things and, and all of that.
- 4:35And that's it. You got to, if you want to be
- 4:38relevant in the social media age, then you have to trick the
- 4:42algorithm in some form or fashion.
- 4:44You're not tricking it. You just have to make something
- 4:47that it wakes us. And yeah, you got to wake it up.
- 4:49That's it, that's it. And it's, you know, it kind of
- 4:53sucks because good videos, like we got one out now with Mike
- 4:56Ragsdale. It ain't good enough.
- 4:58Blasey, the numbers are just saying it ain't good enough.
- 5:02So weird, isn't it? But it is good.
- 5:03Enough. You pour your heart and soul
- 5:05into something. You really feel like you've got
- 5:07a really good video and it doesn't do well.
- 5:09And it's something I've done a couple of times in the past is
- 5:12I've taken a couple of videos that I don't think the hook was
- 5:14quite as good as it could have been.
- 5:16And I'll take that video and re edit it and I'll make a
- 5:18different hook at the beginning and that video will go viral.
- 5:22It's the same recipe. But that hook is so important.
- 5:24That first few seconds is so crucial.
- 5:26Yeah, I, I that's what I've definitely discovered as I've
- 5:29been drilling down more and more into it.
- 5:31That first 3 seconds is everything.
- 5:33That first two seconds is everything.
- 5:35You better have switches and screen, you know it.
- 5:38It move people's attention spans no longer than 3 or 4 seconds at
- 5:42any point. So like just it's it, it's a
- 5:46little more labor intensive to put it together that way, but
- 5:50it's totally possible. And yeah, I mean, we have, I
- 5:54feel like we're kind of in the Bubba army closet of just all of
- 5:58this treasure trove of stuff, but nothing like Bubba has at
- 6:02all. But we have two years of a lot
- 6:05of stuff that we could probably go back on, remake some videos
- 6:09and yeah, we stuff like that, you know?
- 6:11There's a lot of stuff that should have got more run that
- 6:13didn't you know you. Put the time into it.
- 6:16There's all it's good to go back and you don't have to actually
- 6:18get in studio and do anything. You just kind of go chop up,
- 6:21maybe have a day aside to do 4 or 5 old archive videos that you
- 6:25like and put them back out there.
- 6:26Because I have tons of videos like that that end up going
- 6:29viral that maybe maybe didn't do very well at all in the
- 6:31beginning. That's right.
- 6:33That's right. Well, good idea.
- 6:34That's definitely it's time. It's time.
- 6:37It's this time of the show where we hit that alpha.
- 6:40Hit that alpha. All the ladies coming in now.
- 6:44Oh yeah. It was like the number one
- 6:47seller on Amazon. I'm like, I'm going to try some
- 6:48new Cologne. So I got it.
- 6:49You can. Once again, just didn't even
- 6:51smell it. I feel like I'm in high school
- 6:53and I'm like, yeah, but I'm married.
- 6:57I'm just, I'm going to get like 19 year old girls to turn their
- 7:00heads. Oh yeah.
- 7:02That's it. Good luck.
- 7:03No, you just walk inside. You just keep walking by your
- 7:05wife and just kind of fast and like blow it, you know what I
- 7:08mean? Get a little air and go upon
- 7:09her, I can assure. You she won't be impressed.
- 7:14Shout out to all the people in the chat in the chat.
- 7:18I don't know why I said it that way to the chat.
- 7:21I'm over here in Lafayette and I'm just getting weird.
- 7:25Brian Gilson in the house, ladies and gentlemen.
- 7:28Oh man. Course, Paul Rogers always
- 7:31hanging out with us. We got bad goats in the house,
- 7:35Mr. Mike Rucker, Oh yes, Sir, and Texas hillbilly.
- 7:39What's up brother? What is Matt and what Tampa got
- 7:42crazy down there yesterday man they and they got lucky.
- 7:45It sounds like overall, I know they had some problems still,
- 7:47but nothing like it could have been.
- 7:49So no. I saw.
- 7:51Did y'all see that? Speaking of of Stacy G, what is
- 7:54up did did y'all see Lieutenant Dan?
- 7:59Were you following Lieutenant Dan?
- 8:00I mean, I don't know how you didn't.
- 8:03That's crazy. He was the he was.
- 8:04Have you seen the latest with him?
- 8:06Yeah, he's getting that boat. There's a lot happening.
- 8:10Please tell. But then the the guy, Aiden or
- 8:13whatever the guy's name, the big podcaster saw his criminal
- 8:17record and he was accused. I don't know if this is true,
- 8:19but they put his picture and said he was arrested for
- 8:22kidnapping or something way back in the day that Aiden was
- 8:26talking about not gifting him the boat anymore.
- 8:29So I don't know how much of that story is true, but that's
- 8:31definitely what Aiden said. Well, the guy admitted he had a
- 8:34rough life and the guy had not lived his best life and now he's
- 8:36trying to figure out life finally.
- 8:38Like, so, I mean, come on, anime, how critical we're going
- 8:40to be this guy? People get Duis when they're
- 8:42young, some people kidnap people, but we can all be
- 8:44reformed. Can.
- 8:46Absolutely we can. You know what?
- 8:47I mean, it's America, baby. That's what it's all going.
- 8:50To take somebody somewhere just so you can confess them or
- 8:51something. You know what?
- 8:52I mean, yeah, there's a lot, I think there's a lot of
- 8:56misinformation going out there, period, about Lieutenant Dan.
- 9:00Number one, it's 2024 and we're casually talking about
- 9:03Lieutenant Dan. It's it's the best story of the
- 9:06whole damn hurricane. I mean, I I, I mean, as far as
- 9:10no disrespect or anything, a lot of terrible things have
- 9:13happened. But if there's a positive in
- 9:15this thing, hopefully it remains positive.
- 9:17It's Lieutenant Dan. Yeah.
- 9:19He he got one leg. I.
- 9:21Mean he he's up there with Hock, too.
- 9:23And he will be. For sure he.
- 9:25He will be up there with her and it's crazy how fast that can
- 9:28blow up overnight. He's going to have a passive
- 9:30income. I'm sure he's going to live on
- 9:31his boat. But let's say let's, let's,
- 9:32let's talk about one thing. Even if he was convicted of
- 9:35kidnapping, let's be real, Lieutenant Dan's handicap, he's
- 9:38probably not kidnapping anybody anymore.
- 9:40So hey, look, give the guy the boat.
- 9:42Give the guy the boat. It's easy to get away.
- 9:44Giving the. Boat and these days he's not
- 9:45dangerous, you know, I mean you just just step back a couple of
- 9:48steps if he tries to grab you. You know, he seems like a nice
- 9:51guy. He and he's they're going to rig
- 9:54this boat out to where he can create this content and make
- 9:57this passive income. I'm don't you want to know what
- 10:02Lieutenant Dan's doing right this second?
- 10:04I mean, I do. I would.
- 10:06Love to. I would love to watch the
- 10:07reality series on him like day-to-day.
- 10:10There's so much more to this story.
- 10:12I want to know The bad too. I mean, I'm cool with it.
- 10:15We forgive you. I well, at this point, at this
- 10:19point, I kind of for whatever he did, you know, forgive him.
- 10:24A little light kidnapping ain't never hurt anybody though, you
- 10:26know. I mean, I've kidnapped.
- 10:27I need to know more. You know what I mean?
- 10:29You know what, I bet you it was, I bet it was a domestic dispute.
- 10:32And the wife got mad and Lieutenant Dan got his
- 10:35prosthetic and he took off with the kids for a little bit and he
- 10:37came back. Probably.
- 10:38So probably something like that, yeah.
- 10:43All more Lieutenant Dan is on my list and we don't have a whole
- 10:50lot on the list to talk about tonight.
- 10:52Just we're just coming in here to hang boys.
- 10:54We hard cut, hard cut at 7:00 tonight, going to meet some
- 10:59friends and here in Lafayette over in River Ranch and they've
- 11:03got like a Perkins row. How they do over there, you
- 11:07know, with music and stuff. They got something like that
- 11:09going on. Yeah, I got.
- 11:11You little work and play. I like it.
- 11:13Little work and play Little work and play they.
- 11:15Never have anybody. Good question from Paul Rogers.
- 11:19How is Bubba's studio? I've been kind of, I haven't
- 11:23really been able to see anything.
- 11:24I from what I can gather, it's fine.
- 11:28I. Haven't heard anything like
- 11:30otherwise at all. So yeah, I would be.
- 11:32I'm surprised based on the wind and the.
- 11:35And they had no storm surge because of the direction of the
- 11:38wind actually blew the water out of the Bay.
- 11:41So, you know, Lieutenant Dan was right.
- 11:44Lieutenant Dan got lucky. Lieutenant Dan, you ain't got
- 11:48the one leg. You'll hit that like button if
- 11:52you haven't. Oh yeah, alloy.
- 11:55Same stuff they use on the space shuttle.

- 13:39I saw a little bit of video of like a lot of sand in people's
- 13:43houses and stuff, which it just a man Hurricanes, dude,
- 13:48hurricanes. But I think that thing was
- 13:50looking like it it it was looking, it could have been much
- 13:53worse than it was, but it's still terrible.
- 13:55It killed people. But the Tornadoes, the Tornadoes
- 13:59are what was the craziest thing. What'd you say, Blasey?
- 14:03You texted me today that Jeff Petrowski had said.
- 14:06Something he broke a new personal record.
- 14:08He's been storm chasing for 45 years.
- 14:11He broke a new personal record for the most tornadoes he's ever
- 14:14seen in one day, and it was over 30.
- 14:16Yesterday. Unbelievable.
- 14:18Yep. And I was watching him yesterday
- 14:19as he was chasing these. I mean, one time I remember he
- 14:21had one out this window. One.

- 14:25And it was like, this is crazy. And he was, of course, all super
- 14:28excited, you know? Yeah, yeah.
- 14:30This is no good, but just the best.
- 14:33He broke his own personal record of the amount of tornadoes he's
- 14:36ever witnessed in one day. It was yesterday, so that's.
- 14:38Pretty wild, man. Yeah, totally, totally wild.
- 14:41Yeah. He, he kept.
- 14:43I was trying to watch it as much as I could and he would come in
- 14:47and out. My Internet is not the best in
- 14:49this hotel, so I'm pumped that we can it works for this.
- 14:54If I tried it. We have so much content, Blasey,
- 14:58just so much content. I'm so I'm just hey, Jeppeled

- 17:37You did really good. Yeah.
- 17:38I mean, it's almost like you know how to do this.
- 17:40So Jr. is potentially could come in.
- 17:45I doubt it. No, don't really know his
- 17:47situation. He has the link and I don't know
- 17:49where he's at. It kind of brings us to that
- 17:52segment of where in the world is Jr.
- 17:55But Jr. while while I look up Justin Moore's tour, they were
- 18:00kicking it last night. Good Lord.

- 19:57Daly. JD is my man.
- 20:01John Daly's got a hybrid liver. I don't know where he got that.
- 20:04Thing he had a little video of him hitting a heater and looked
- 20:07like a tour bus or something while John party picked up a
- 20:10guitar and swung it for it. Was great.
- 20:13Like I don't know if we could share it or not.
- 20:16If we can, we will. I've been all.
- 20:19Over the black top man Zach Top. Probably about three months ago,
- 20:22I started hitting that hard. Love that dude.
- 20:24And I watched his videos on social media.
- 20:27Yeah, I know you did help with that.
- 20:29I watched a lot of his videos on social media.
- 20:32And when he's doing meet and greets, he's like got a
- 20:33cigarette in his hand. He puts it behind his back.
- 20:36He's got a Coors Banquet beer. I just, I love how he embraces
- 20:39Nadi's country and he's always like he lives it.
- 20:43He lives it. He is totally living it.
- 20:45Dude. I'm still kicking my butt for
- 20:49not getting tickets to go see him at the Texas Club.
- 20:52I mean, you know, he played at the Texas Club like a month ago
- 20:55or so. By the time, by the time I
- 20:59looked at was, it was impossible to pretty much unless you knew
- 21:03people. And then then we did a live
- 21:05podcast. I was like, Oh my God, I know.
- 21:07I do know somebody, but everybody and their brother was
- 21:10talking to that dude. I promise you, I'm down the
- 21:13totem pole on that. He's going.
- 21:15To be like Luke Combs, he's going to, he'll be in the Texas
- 21:18Club and we watched Luke Combs when I first met my wife at the
- 21:21Texas Club and a year later he was playing at the Raising Cane
- 21:24Center and headlining his own tour.
- 21:25I feel like Zach Top is that caliber and I feel like he'll
- 21:29be. He'll be headlining soon for
- 21:30sure. Wow.
- 21:31Yeah. I oh, he's going to have his own
- 21:34headlining tour next year and he's going on some dates with
- 21:39Alan Jackson, opening for Alan Jackson.
- 21:42Placey, We lost you. I don't know if you realized
- 21:44that. Can you hear me?
- 21:46Oh yeah, we can hear you. OK, just give me a minute.
- 21:47Yes, all. Right.
- 21:48Oh, no, you're fine. You're fine.
- 21:50Iggy says Pam Tillis is still alive.
- 21:54Is she, like, 77? No, she's 67.
- 21:58Who knew? I'd need to Google Pam Tillis
- 22:00today. Yeah.
- 22:01I mean, this picture, and I'm not doing it justice whatsoever.
- 22:04I'm sorry that I can't put it up.
- 22:06We. I mean, we got it 15 minutes
- 22:08before we went live. And like I said, there's no way
- 22:11I can upload anything in this hotel.
- 22:14But yeah, unbelievable. Cannot wait to hear this story
- 22:21of what the heck happened back there.
- 22:23And the one thing I took away, Blacy.
- 22:26And nobody can see the picture to laugh.
- 22:29And I got to give my boy Jay credit on it 'cause he he said
- 22:33it, I sent it to my group text. So it's all safe in there.
- 22:36Just like, you know, 'cause you're going to see that
- 22:38picture. And he said, I don't think the
- 22:41king, I think the kings, I don't think the king.
- 22:44What did he say? The king don't do leg day.
- 22:48And you know the picture. The king don't do like that
- 22:57though. The king King got some little
- 22:58legs, man, I'm not going to lie. Yeah, the King and I or you
- 23:03know, probably kindred spirits there.
- 23:04I don't, you know, I try to do leg day.
- 23:06It just don't work out that much.
- 23:07Ain't much happening there. It's.
- 23:09You got more than the king. I'm going to say that say that
- 23:12for sure. But I mean, damn, what an
- 23:16unbelievable thing that would. Just just think about the amount
- 23:20of people, the talent that was in that round.
- 23:23Just crazy insane. Can't wait to hear about it.
- 23:25Yeah, unreal. So Austin, what else?
- 23:30What's been going on? You're taking, you haven't taken
- 23:33a break, but you kind of slowed down in your content.
- 23:36I know you're about to start ramping it up.
- 23:38Does that happen for you like two or three times throughout
- 23:43the year and you just kind of like you got to switch gears
- 23:46because you've been running summer, summer, summer, summer
- 23:48stuff, summer dips, all that stuff, summer drinks.
- 23:52Now we're in the fall. I don't look at you as a pumpkin
- 23:55spice kind of guy, but you're probably going to make something
- 23:58about it now that I've said it. Or maybe you already have.
- 24:02So what are you doing? What happens now?
- 24:04So it just depends. Sometimes I get through a little
- 24:07rut every two months. Sometimes it's every three
- 24:10months. And you know when it hits like
- 24:12it'll be Monday and you just don't feel like you have the
- 24:14momentum or the energy to to post a couple of videos that
- 24:17that week. So then I just get in the office
- 24:20and I try to push the seasoning and like I said, I'll go archive
- 24:23old videos and I'll edit them and I'll repost them and I'll
- 24:26try to edit them a little bit better than maybe six months
- 24:29ago. Maybe I learned some new stuff
- 24:30editing so I can figure out how my hook needs to be placed and
- 24:33hopefully the video will perform better.
- 24:35But yeah. And then then I go through
- 24:37spurts where I can go outside and film 4 videos in a day.
- 24:41And I can do that for a couple days in a row and then I'm good
- 24:44for seven or eight days. So it is depends.
- 24:47But it it, it's weird how it happens when it hits.
- 24:51I mean, I'm 19 or 20 months into it now.
- 24:54When it hits, man, it's just tough, especially when it's your
- 24:57job. And I'm not ungrateful.
- 24:58I'm very grateful for it. But sometimes it just, it just
- 25:01sucks your soul out of your body and you just, you need a break,
- 25:05man. It's like I do the same thing.
- 25:07It might be a different recipe, but you know, cooking.
- 25:09I love to cook. That's why when I get ahead on
- 25:12content, when I can cook something without being on
- 25:14camera, it's like the most therapeutic thing ever because I
- 25:18don't have to worry about turning anything on, saying the
- 25:20right thing. I could just enjoy what I Yeah,
- 25:24yeah. Enjoy what I did before I
- 25:26started doing this. Yeah, for sure, man, for sure
- 25:30that and that's what it you have to, I think you have to re
- 25:32energize yourself, take a step back, let it you know, and then
- 25:36you, you kind of you, you'll find inspiration.
- 25:39I, I've got a feeling I've been seeing you talk about this
- 25:42online. You're going to some event in
- 25:44Madison, Madisonville or something?
- 25:46Texas. Yeah.
- 25:47Madisonville, TX. And a lot of guys that are that
- 25:50follow the show. Shout out to Joni.
- 25:52I did see cooking with Joni. I'm sorry I didn't get it up
- 25:55there. Shout out to to him and other
- 25:57folks like that. What what's happening?
- 25:59What is that? So this is supposedly the
- 26:02biggest influencer event ever in the United States.
- 26:05So there's fifty of us. There's fifty of us going.
- 26:08I don't know if they calculated by the amount of influencers or
- 26:11combined following or how they did, but they said it's the
- 26:14biggest event ever in Madisonville, TX is not a very
- 26:17big town, but there's a big cattle ranch out there and we're
- 26:22all posting up tents. We're cooking all day.
- 26:25Pepper Belly Pete, I think stale crackers going to be there.
- 26:29There's tons of influencers. The list just kind of goes on
- 26:32and on and on, but we're going to be out there with a boot set
- 26:35up. So this is the first time for me
- 26:36doing something that big, but it I'm looking forward to it.
- 26:39It's going to be a lot of. Fun.
- 26:40Yeah, that sounds like fun. Man.
- 26:42When is that? October 19th.
- 26:44October 19th I like it. I like it.

- 27:00chest up. Man.
- 27:01God, wait, I didn't think I'd get get all those.
- 27:05Questions. The fat pig says that your voice
- 27:07sounds fake, like Tampa Terry. I can assure you that his voice
- 27:12isn't fake. I've hung out with Austin.
- 27:13Austin. He has that.

- 27:19minute. Yeah, yeah.

- 27:45gargantuan. Yeah, he was a pitcher too.
- 27:48He played baseball. Imagine a six foot 9 monster.
- 27:50I mean he was like a giant off. He's.
- 27:55A pitcher he slung, he slung that rock around a little bit,
- 27:58you know, like he threw that ball.
- 28:01Aaron Judge is a big dude to be playing in the outfield at
- 28:04times, you know, I mean, just like it been fast and wow.
- 28:09Thanks so much, Alan. Appreciate you man.
- 28:11Aaron Joy, It looks like he's holding a toy bat when he's in
- 28:13the place. He's so ridiculous looking,
- 28:15isn't it? It's it's crazy.
- 28:16Yeah, a toy bat. How do you hit a home run with a
- 28:23McDonald's toy? He makes it look that way too,
- 28:26you know, I mean, I got to give a shout out while we're while
- 28:30we're kind of talking about these.
- 28:33Oh yeah, Look at them walking. Up behind me.
- 28:34Good Lord, it's like he's going to walk through the glass.
- 28:37Yes, I like you. I'm on your side.

- 28:59Oh, shit. Oh, you need the mic?
- 29:02No, you need your Blasey has a mic.
- 29:05He started doing some halftime. He did.
- 29:07He did some some field correspondent work.
- 29:10Oh, yeah, it's right there with you.
- 29:13Yeah, they got I got my mic with me disappointed last last night.
- 29:19I was supposed to I was supposed to go with the Cajun critic.
- 29:23I think he's going to be one of those.
- 29:25It's at the at the deal too. He and I were going to go go to
- 29:30a food truck or R2 and film a little content.
- 29:33Just have a little fun. Stuff came up and we weren't
- 29:36able to to do it. Just both of us are
- 29:39disappointed, but that is going to happen.
- 29:41Still went to some cool stuff and and and had some good
- 29:45conversation about Creative I. Met him in McComb, Ms. about, I
- 29:52don't know, three or four months ago.
- 29:53He's a good dude. We, we talked about doing some
- 29:55food reviews together in Prairieville, but we haven't
- 29:58been able to link up yet. But I think he's going to
- 30:00Madisonville. I'm pretty sure he's going to be
- 30:01out there. I think he is.
- 30:03I think he is and he's got a, a burger cook off deal that's
- 30:07coming up and, and we'll, we'll, we'll be helping to support
- 30:10that. It's, it's down the road.
- 30:12It's like in March or so of, of next year.
- 30:14But yeah, that's going to be fun.
- 30:17I want to go to that 'cause I mean, I love a good burger.
- 30:19Yeah, I like him. He's a good dude.
- 30:21Very good dude, very good dude. So a little disappointed
- 30:24couldn't collab with him this week, but but that's all good it
- 30:28it happens. I did want to give a shout out
- 30:30to the Sabine Free State Festival.
- 30:33Man, we're going to be talking a little bit more with those guys.
- 30:37That is in my hometown of Florine, Louisiana.
- 30:41It's happening. I think the first weekend of
- 30:43November. I'm pretty, I know it is.
- 30:45It's the first weekend of November.
- 30:46I think it's November 1st. I'll confirm down the road as we
- 30:51talk more to them. I'm not looking at I'm not
- 30:53looking at the calendar, but it's a lot of fun, man.
- 30:57That thing started back when I was a kid.
- 31:00I think it started in 81 or 82 somewhere in there.
- 31:04This is without any notes or, or looking at anything, but it was
- 31:08a it was a fixture when I was a little a fixture when I was a
- 31:12little kid. And they have this, they have
- 31:14this, they built this saloon there and little bitty flooring
- 31:19and they they have it's the, it's the free set, Free State
- 31:23festival shootout. It's the shootout.
- 31:25And they have, they act and they have all this stuff.
- 31:29My dad used to be the narrator. He was the Waylon Jennings of
- 31:32the whole deal back in the day. They have.
- 31:34So is. It like a Western deal, like
- 31:36wait like a shootout. Yeah, well, flooring, flooring
- 31:39is in the free. The Free State of Jones, that
- 31:44was a movie. But the Free State of Texas, it
- 31:46was no Free State. It was just right there.
- 31:48Texas, Louisiana, there was no man's land is what it was
- 31:51called. So we have the.
- 31:54Festival. Not necessarily.
- 31:58Yes, the the shootout is somewhat of a reenactment, I
- 32:01guess. I mean it's.
- 32:02Full stage shootout deal. It's a shootout.
- 32:05Yes, exactly. You mean people have guns and
- 32:07they're fake guns. Blank, Alec.
- 32:11Alec Baldwin isn't there. He ain't going to kill anybody,
- 32:15you know. Been going on for 40 plus years.
- 32:18Not a soul has died from blanks yet at the Sabine Free State
- 32:23Festival. There's your.
- 32:24Clip maybe a rigged set? Yeah, you think, you think that.
- 32:30You know, it had to be, and I don't think he meant to do that.
- 32:34Yeah, I don't think you. Know why were real bullets even
- 32:38at A at a movie scene? Like why?
- 32:40Why would one one real bullet be there?
- 32:42None. Wasn't it just one out of all of
- 32:44them? Yes.
- 32:47Yeah. And then?
- 32:48Which is all it takes. Wasn't Brandon Lee he got shot 2
- 32:52in a movie one time? Same.
- 32:53Yeah, dude in the Crow. What's?
- 32:54Going on dude, why don't people getting murdered and.
- 32:56Look, I'm I'm not trying to make light of the situation.
- 32:58It's terrible that she died. But also like, let's give Alec
- 33:02Baldwin some credit. He's an actor.
- 33:03And he obviously was, even though he was joking and he was
- 33:06not actually firing the gun for real.
- 33:08I mean, he had good aim. They did his job.
- 33:15Dead solid. Perfect.
- 33:16Nobody gave him that those props.
- 33:18No, they did not. They did.
- 33:19Not so you can you can see that kind of a reenactment at the
- 33:22Sabine Parish Free State Festival.
- 33:24If you we're going to have to do better of advertising this, I do
- 33:29believe, but but it is a it's a hoot.
- 33:33It's a lot of fun. They have a BBQ cook off this
- 33:36year. It is not a shoot, it is a work.
- 33:38That's a fact. That's a fact.
- 33:40The they have in the past, they've had like at one point in
- 33:45time, they had the Louisiana State BBQ championship at this
- 33:49event and they had people came around from all, from all over
- 33:52the country to do it. They've scratched the
- 33:55competition BBQ part of it. It's now like a regular people
- 34:00BBQ deal and no pellet grills are allowed.
- 34:04I like it. I like it too.
- 34:07I don't have a problem. I'm a Pell.
- 34:08We're pellet grill guys also. I have no problem with that.
- 34:11Yeah, yeah. You shouldn't be able to cook
- 34:12competition with a pellet grill. Correct.
- 34:15I agree. I agree.
- 34:17I agree. Yeah, I really think that that
- 34:19should not, should not be allowed.
- 34:21It's just too. It's too easy man, and it works
- 34:24out every time. There maybe should be a
- 34:27exclusive pellet grill competition.
- 34:29That would be different. There you go, divisions.
- 34:32It's only pellet grills, yeah. Yeah, you could divide.
- 34:36I I think that's where it needs to go to and we need to get JD
- 34:40Marsh on here to hit ask him because that's what he does.
- 34:44But I think that that it should be separated.
- 34:47That's like the live scopers with bass fishing.
- 34:49Nobody cares for me, but it's the same thing.
- 34:51Like it it could potentially have its own division and you
- 34:56can only use live scope and do you know what I mean?
- 34:58Like. And I think it's what's an.
- 35:00Advantage. Take it to another level is
- 35:02every time you tend your grill during a pellet competition,
- 35:05somebody with a paintball gun from the other competition can
- 35:09be shooting at you. So you got to shield up and try
- 35:11to man your grill and get away from it.
- 35:12As soon as you're stepping away, you're safe.
- 35:14You know what I mean? That's entertaining.
- 35:16So you better get in and get out, you know?
- 35:18Yeah. So what you got to do, that's
- 35:22what you got to do. We didn't get to talk about this
- 35:25last week. And unfortunately, and maybe
- 35:27fortunately for him, Jr. is still not showing up.
- 35:30But what about what about Alabama getting beat by Vandy
- 35:37Man? They really did.
- 35:38They really. Did always been here two and
- 35:45four and I couldn't have been happier.
- 35:48Yeah, I can't. Say nothing.
- 35:52Yeah, I mean, I we've got a big one with Ole Miss this weekend,
- 35:54but it was still a lot of fun to watch.
- 35:58I don't think that ever would have happened under Nick Saban.
- 36:00And but I ain't. I'm not writing them off.
- 36:05No, I can't. I'm not writing them off.
- 36:07I'll tell you what. I'll be honest with you, Vandy
- 36:09looked really, really good in that game.
- 36:10Like they they, they really did. You know, I think they said the
- 36:13combined 2 losses they had was like combined 7 points or
- 36:16something. And fun fact, Auburn got beat at
- 36:19home last year by New Mexico State.
- 36:22Vanderbilt's quarterback transferred from New Mexico
- 36:24State, so that that is Vandy's quarterback now.
- 36:28Yeah, Yeah, that's a good. Point He put his agent's phone
- 36:31number out there like. That's all that.
- 36:34It's my If you want an nil deal, call my agent.
- 36:37Like he said, like Vand move it or something.
- 36:40It's a pimp move. That is a pimp move.
- 36:43Yeah, Blasey, you did. You did.
- 36:45I love the stuff that you brought to us, though, from from
- 36:48Troy. I mean, it was still there was a
- 36:52competitive ball game. So it was it was fun.
- 36:55It was. Fun, It was fun.
- 36:56Like we, we had a good time. He's just now you know what,
- 37:00we're just, we're not that what what we did find is a
- 37:02quarterback. I think that quarterback
- 37:03controversy is over. I still think Tucker Kilcrease,
- 37:06the sophomore coming in there, I think.
- 37:08He's 15.1 minutes left. I just got to be Hey, mom.

- 37:16we just, we just got a long way to go in other, in other
- 37:18departments, man, I don't know. I'm not ready to give up on
- 37:20anybody. It's just, it's just sad to see.
- 37:23Yeah, I mean, they're going to get right.
- 37:26It's it's a transition year. You knew this was going to
- 37:29happen. Shout out Russell.

- 37:52good. It is good.
- 37:53It's really good. It's a secret weapon.
- 37:55I've put it in a lot of stuff lately.
- 37:57You know what I mean? Like I've, I've added it to many
- 38:00things. Yeah, it's real good.
- 38:03It it, it went my college today. I mean, it's, it's a base for a
- 38:06lot of stuff. I mean, it went on that chicken,
- 38:07you know, I mean, I'm not chicken, but on that Turkey
- 38:09breast that I smoked, it's it's just, it's it's a it's a staple.
- 38:14Like I said, it's an adult version of Tony's, you know what
- 38:17I mean? That's that's what it is.
- 38:19Yeah. That is what, a low sodium adult
- 38:23version. That's what I mean with a hell
- 38:24of a kick. But it's just right.
- 38:27It's just the right kick. Fantastic.
- 38:29I love it, man Yeah, LSU Ole Miss Tales from the Tailgate
- 38:34this Weekend 0. That's this weekend too.
- 38:37I wish I was over there. It's got legs.
- 38:41It's it does have legs. It's going to have a lot of legs
- 38:44and it's going to rock. It's going to this is going to
- 38:46be so much fun chat. I know that you guys have been
- 38:50watching some of these tales from the tailgate.
- 38:52Some of the questions, of course, last week was a hard,
- 38:55hard focus on what do you know about Bubba the Love Sponge?
- 39:02Kind of got a little bit of Flack back from that in a, in a,
- 39:07in a sense, it was not meant to be negative whatsoever.
- 39:10You got to start the conversation somewhere.
- 39:12The bottom line is that Bubba had a sex tape.
- 39:17Not with Hulk Hogan is as it. Was as I said.
- 39:20But I mean, whatever, you know what I mean?
- 39:23Like, come on it. You got to understand we're in
- 39:26the moment. We're in the heat of the moment.
- 39:28The music is so loud you cannot hear the other person.
- 39:31How these mics work like they do is unreal, but they work.
- 39:36They work perfect. The music so loud, I can barely
- 39:39hear the other person. So you got to give them that
- 39:41shock value and say, you know, and it was fun.
- 39:46The wife part, yeah, yeah, left sometimes, but.
- 39:50I think most people got the gesture.
- 39:51I left the wife part out all of the time when I went back.
- 39:54Italy, you say? Yeah, I mean, that's on me.
- 39:57I get that. I.
- 39:58Had a sex tape with Hulk Hogan. It's more shocking that way
- 40:01anyhow, you know, it's just no, Hogan was banging Bubba.
- 40:07So yeah, that was. Not that went down at all, but
- 40:09yeah, it was it was funny. It was funny.
- 40:11But now the one thing you did leave out, I got to give credit.
- 40:14Mike Calta peddled this thing. You know what I mean?
- 40:17Like, let's be real. Who peddled it?
- 40:18It's not a conspiracy. That's it's.
- 40:20Yeah, I mean in the heat of the moment.
- 40:22Number one, was it one thing. It was phenomenal.
- 40:24First of all, I give you a plus plus.
- 40:27Right. Thank you.
- 40:27Great content. I'm just picking at you on a
- 40:30couple of things, but you did a great job.
- 40:33But the one thing I would have gone one further, Hey, it was
- 40:35Kalta. It wasn't a conspiracy.
- 40:36That's all I got to say. And and and Paul, you know how
- 40:42you know how deep into the Bubba army Paul is now gotten Oh yeah,
- 40:47he mentioned that in the chat. He mentioned that in the and now
- 40:51I get what he means. Yes, of course.
- 40:53You know, I'm just over here. I'm like, I can't believe I got
- 40:55him to just do that. That's what I'm thinking and I'm
- 40:59yes, I'm not being. Great job.
- 41:01So what I'm what I'm getting at is chat.
- 41:04What do I need to ask these folks?
- 41:07This week. This week.
- 41:10Yeah, I thought it was awesome. Well, thank you.
- 41:13Thank you. I mean, there's we've.
- 41:15Got a link up this weekend? I'll be out there.
- 41:17OK. I thought I heard at the very
- 41:18top of the shows you say something about that.
- 41:22So you're going to be out there. You going back to Touchdown
- 41:24Village? Yeah, 20 gallon.
- 41:26You got to come see me. That's just too damn far.
- 41:29We got a link. I know I need to find somebody
- 41:31with a golf cart so I can ride over and see you for like 30 or
- 41:3345 minutes. If you come to my tailgate, you
- 41:36won't leave. That's why I'm here.
- 41:39I have a whole tent cooking so I'll have to come early.
- 41:41What time do you get out there? Riley has a football game at
- 41:4510:00 Saturday morning. I I plan to get there by noon so
- 41:52I just reserved my parking pass my little parking spot just.
- 41:55Before what are y'all cooking this time?
- 41:58I don't know what's on the menu for for our tailgate this
- 42:02weekend. I have no idea.
- 42:03But it'll be epic. I know that that it'll be a lot
- 42:07of good stuff. I promise you that.
- 42:09I want to think, man, I think, I think they're frying fish and
- 42:13shrimp. I think if I remember right from
- 42:17conversation at South Alabama, they're taking out.
- 42:19And taking out them land sharks. Land sharks, yeah.
- 42:24I think they will. Think they will, I think.
- 42:27I think they will. I hope so.
- 42:30I don't favor to that game. I know 3 1/2 points all.
- 42:34Day on that. Yeah, yeah.
- 42:38Texas Hillbilly ask about Diddy and what celebrities are on the
- 42:42tapes. That's actually a good.
- 42:43That's actually, that's actually a great idea.
- 42:46That's a great idea. I'm going to put that in my
- 42:47notes. Diddy's done.
- 42:49Let me put a star back. Diddy's done.
- 42:51Dude, that's crazy. Diddy is done.
- 42:53At one point I was reserving judgement, and I still am to a
- 42:56degree, but I think Diddy's done.
- 42:59What about Garth? Oh, we got some.
- 43:02Weird stuff too. I mean, I Austin, I know your
- 43:06thoughts, you've expressed them on social media, but I don't I
- 43:11don't know if those are your real thoughts or if you're just
- 43:14engaging, but where there's smoke, there's fire, but it's
- 43:19also just something hitting all what you know what this this
- 43:22long and it just you talking about you talking.
- 43:25About. About Garth Brooks.
- 43:28I have a sexual assault or the murders like.
- 43:30He's a serial. Oh, he's definitely.
- 43:32I don't think he has been 100% the person to kill the folks,
- 43:36but I do believe that he's in on his own.
- 43:42It's fun banter. It is fun but that guy I forget
- 43:46the guy that the that just him and Garth hate each other.
- 43:50He's the one that like called him out on his podcast and him
- 43:53and his wife are comedians. I forget.
- 43:54Tom Segura, Tom Segura and and Christine Pawlowski.
- 44:00I can't remember her last name. Christine just looks gross.
- 44:02She looks like a. Christine P.
- 44:06That's funny dude. That's great.
- 44:08They're not my favorite comedians, believe it or not.
- 44:12You know, I kind of tried to get into the mom's jeans and that
- 44:15whole Tom Segura stuff. And I, I don't know, I like
- 44:19them. They're funny.
- 44:20They're OK, but I mean, I like crazy.
- 44:24I like Bert Kreischer a lot better and he's just insane.
- 44:27He ain't for everybody because he's so damn over the top.
- 44:30And he's wrong. He.
- 44:31Just says yeah, he's shirtless the whole time.
- 44:34It doesn't need to be, but he's you.
- 44:36Know just about man, I'll do whatever I have to do to keep my
- 44:38body healthy so I can always drink.
- 44:42And I'm like, dude, I can relate to that.
- 44:43Like if my doctor said like also you got to dial it back.
- 44:46I'd be like, how many days a week and how many hours do I
- 44:48have to go to the gym so I can drink?
- 44:52And I love that you put that post out on social media that
- 44:55you were done drinking and everybody just got really
- 44:57confused about it. I'm not going to lie, I read it
- 44:59like 3 * I almost texted you and I was like he's full of shit.
- 45:04So he's not a, I'm not a, I'm not a bourbon drinker.
- 45:07And I was holding up a glass of bourbon and everybody didn't
- 45:10really, somebody had made a comment.
- 45:12They're like, man, you're a dad. Are you seriously going to be
- 45:14out here promoting this beer company?
- 45:16So I made that post kind of trolling him because I'd, I'd
- 45:19had several beers and then my wife's like, that's not going to
- 45:22be good for you tomorrow. And then I read the comments and
- 45:24I saw the likes and I'm like, damn, people think I'm really
- 45:27doing that. Meanwhile he has a case or you
- 45:33got more than about 1/2 a pallet, maybe quarter of a
- 45:36pallet now in. My dining room of outlaw being,
- 45:42it's kind of silly, like. By the way, Tigs Bits endorses
- 45:47Outlaw beer. I had did.
- 45:49You have an outlaw beer. When you did and it, they were
- 45:51very, very good. They're made in Colorado.
- 45:54It's. Finally here.
- 45:56Oh, you get them in Louisiana? Yeah, it's in Circle K's in
- 45:59Baton Rouge. I looked at the store located
- 46:01the other day. Circle K's and Total Wine from
- 46:04what I looked at. Excellent Total Wine, Hal Laird
- 46:09says. It wasn't Hearth Garth, it was
- 46:11Chris Gaines. Oh, what was Chris doing?
- 46:14All that killing. Tell us about Chris Gaines,
- 46:17Austin. See, I don't even want to
- 46:19because if I look, the voice of reason doesn't even win anymore.
- 46:23The truth about Chris Gaines is not as fun as the as the as the
- 46:28live Chris Gaines. So I'm sure Garth embraced that
- 46:32because he's a very artistic guy and he's very weird.
- 46:35I love Garth Brooks music. I grew up on it.
- 46:37He's like the guy I would never want to drink a beer with that
- 46:42man. And I mean that.
- 46:43Like give me Luke Combs, give me John Party, Justin Moore, Blake
- 46:47Shelton. Nothing about Garth intrigues me
- 46:50as far as hanging out. But the real story behind the
- 46:53Chris Gaines saga, if you will. There was a film that had a
- 46:59budget. It was being made in Australia
- 47:02and Garth Brooks was cast to play Chris Gaines in the movie.
- 47:06Before the movie was released, Garth released the soundtrack,
- 47:10and what you see on the cover of that album is what the character
- 47:14was supposed to be like before the movie even started.
- 47:19The budget got cut, but he had already released the album, so
- 47:22he just went ahead with it to try to be, you know, to try to
- 47:25make money off of making the album.
- 47:28And then, you know, the reality backfired, you know, say the
- 47:32least. You want to talk about the
- 47:33Internet or it wasn't even the Internet then.
- 47:35It was just like magazines or whatever that put that out
- 47:39there. Imagine now on the Internet.
- 47:40He would get destroyed. That's the real truth behind
- 47:44Chris Gaines. Garth didn't go in his bathroom
- 47:46one day and put on Goth. No, I know.
- 47:48I know that because we were back.
- 47:50We were there, but it was, wasn't it like an exclusive deal
- 47:54with Walmart or something that was only, you can only buy that
- 47:58album at Walmart or something like that back then?
- 48:02And a lot of his, his box sets, he does a lot around Christmas
- 48:05every year. And I sound like I work for him,
- 48:07but he does a lot of he does a lot of box sets every year.
- 48:10It's always exclusive to like Walmart.
- 48:12And I think he does Target now too.
- 48:15And Amazon isn't it. Amazon Prime's the only place
- 48:18you can hear his music. Like it's not on Spotify, it's
- 48:21not on Apple, I don't believe. Yeah, 'cause.
- 48:23I know it's not on Spotify. Ghost tunes thing and then that
- 48:26that flop but that was the only place you could get his digital
- 48:28downloads. But thank God for Amazon Music
- 48:31because I listen to. What?
- 48:33Yes, you do diet, Miller and Tigs bits.
- 48:36Koozie. That's what I'm talking about.
- 48:39That's what I'm talking about. Nothing wrong with that.
- 48:41Yeah, I got that diet. Miller catching on.
- 48:44That's what I'm talking about. I love that.
- 48:46I love that. Does a three loss team make the
- 48:50college football? Playoffs this year?
- 48:52Possibly. That's on the.
- 48:54Team. I didn't think that was possible
- 48:56until last week and now I'm like it may happen.
- 49:01Two lost teams made the four team playoffs.
- 49:04Very true, very true. There's a three loss.
- 49:07There's a three loss. They lost two.
- 49:10And yeah, in in in O 7. O 7 OK.
- 49:15Oh, look at this. Yes, the captain's wife.
- 49:19The captain and his wife checking in.
- 49:22We're good in the new place, just some small tree limbs on
- 49:26the ground. We survived another one, yes.
- 49:29Been thinking about y'all yes. The army and everybody came
- 49:33together to support them and and that's that's awesome.
- 49:36I mean, that happened so fast. I mean, gave them money.
- 49:39Lummy had a house. Like they were taken care of
- 49:41within like 3 or 4 days. But it's so good, man, that is
- 49:44that just, it's encouraging and it's good to see, you know, I
- 49:48mean, it's good to good people that flat out deserve it.
- 49:52And I'm glad that it looks like everybody weathered this storm
- 49:57fairly well, you know, as far as as we can see anyhow.
- 50:01And that's that's encouraging because 12 hours before landfall
- 50:06did not look good at all. But Bubba Wendy called all this
- 50:10Bubba Wendy called it. It was a little aggressive.
- 50:12It was a little outside of it, too little aggressive, outside
- 50:15of his little. He was talking a little.
- 50:18He was talking a little bit. Little Wendy got caught up in
- 50:21Bubba Wendy a little bit. But he was Bubba Wendy is right,
- 50:23you know? Yeah, he was.
- 50:25Did get I did get some feedback. I got a couple of messages Blacy
- 50:30that were like are y'all going y'all going to be broadcasting
- 50:33the hurricane tonight? Y'all going to be talking about
- 50:35it? I was like, I was like, dude, we
- 50:38we flat out would have number one.
- 50:40We would have been doing it had like, I trust the upload speed
- 50:44of this hotel, but 4 gig, 4 megabytes ain't going to cut it
- 50:49for streaming another stream in this stream.
- 50:52It just won't won't work. That's too much.
- 50:55Yeah. So it was like, no,
- 50:56unfortunately we're not. But yeah, Bubba Wendy was on it
- 51:00with his windy ad. Hey, Petrowski.
- 51:03Last night I was watching him, I don't know, maybe 8/30, 9:00
- 51:06somewhere in there. And dude, he started panicking a
- 51:09little bit. He got off, he exited.
- 51:11He was heading towards downtown Tampa and he got off an exit and
- 51:13all of a sudden water's over the road.
- 51:15He can't go left. He can't go right.
- 51:17I never seen him do this. He started cussing a little bit.
- 51:19He cussed. Oh, dude, he was cussing quite a
- 51:21bit. He was freaking out.
- 51:22He was. He thought he was stuck.
- 51:24He thought he'd messed up real bad.
- 51:25Like he thought the water was rising behind him.
- 51:27He was in a not in a good spot there for a minute.
- 51:29Yeah, he was dropping some. Yeah, he's dropping.
- 51:32He's dropping ass full. Of the words, yeah, dude, he
- 51:33was, he was tired. He was, he was a little.
- 51:35He was. Little He's in it that he's in
- 51:37the heat of the. Ball having to go up the an off
- 51:39ramp backwards like and I mean way up and all like a long off
- 51:43ramp to try to escape from it and then he got up there and was
- 51:45heading backwards down the Interstate like.
- 51:50Yeah, what about the trop? The poor trop.
- 51:53Dude that's crazy, that was actually a shelter too.
- 51:57Did you see all the beds in the outfield?
- 52:01What now? It was housing a lot of lineman.
- 52:03There was a lot of lineman station there.
- 52:05It looked like that roof was made out, made out of wide.
- 52:09Yeah, I had no idea that's what it was made out of.
- 52:13Like of course it didn't work. I bet you they don't go back
- 52:16with that same material. That just tear that whole frame
- 52:19down and make an outdoor stadium.
- 52:20You know what? I.
- 52:22Mean might as well. I mean the rain there.
- 52:24I mean the impossible. Just build a new stadium.
- 52:28I've never been in it, but it looked looked terrible.
- 52:31Blasey, you've been in it. I know you've been in that
- 52:33study. Is it terrible?
- 52:36It's not terrible man, it's just the location sucks like you know
- 52:39what I mean? Because if, especially if you
- 52:40live in Tampa and you try to go there, you get it 275 and you're
- 52:43trying to get there, it takes you an hour to get there.
- 52:45Then you get there. It's just a mess like that.
- 52:48That stadium needs to be in Tampa and that's to been the
- 52:51problem. It's just the location.
- 52:52It's so difficult to get to. The stadium's not bad once you
- 52:55get there, but it's, it's empty, 'cause somebody, you know, like
- 52:59you can walk around and sit where you want to, you know?
- 53:02So it's, you know, there might be literally most games, there's
- 53:06maybe 6-7 thousand people there, you know.
- 53:09They got time to fix it. And since they thank God they
- 53:12weren't, they weren't in the playoffs this year because
- 53:14that'd have been an issue. It would have been an issue.
- 53:19Lord, yeah. I just, I wasn't expecting that.
- 53:21I think I saw on The Weather Channel somebody said that it
- 53:24was rated to like 115 mph. The highest wind in in Tampa was
- 53:30like 97, maybe it's 100, but up higher, you know, higher wind
- 53:35gusts probably up there at the roof it was 115 so.
- 53:39Yeah, unobstructed wind coming through there because it sits
- 53:42higher than anything right there coming off that water too, so.
- 53:45And once it gets in, it's going to RIP everything out.
- 53:47It just takes 1 little piece out.
- 53:49It's done. I'm.
- 53:51Surprised that stuff hadn't broken down already in the past.
- 53:54Like, like you're saying, like you'd like it, like it was out
- 53:56of paper. It's like you would think that
- 53:57I'm just disintegrated. Yeah.
- 53:58Just throw 1/4 at it and it'll go.
- 54:00Through It's like when the the snow collapse, the thing at the
- 54:04Minneapolis, whatever that thing was called, Metrodome.
- 54:09The Metrodome, it doesn't exist anymore either.
- 54:12The trops probably not going to exist.
- 54:14Either that's probably expedited, but that'll be the
- 54:17end of it if you have nowhere. To think about how old we're
- 54:19going to be when like they implode, like Jerry's World,
- 54:24like that'll probably happen in our wife probably will.
- 54:26We're going to be like in our 60s and be like, man, that was
- 54:28the nicest stadium ever. Implode.
- 54:31Other than the scoreboard, the punters kept hitting it.
- 54:36I mean, who could have seen that coming?
- 54:38You know, like, come on, you knew that was going to happen.
- 54:42But man, that score, it doesn't happen often.
- 54:44Before we put this scoreboard here.
- 54:47It's. As low as you can get a damn
- 54:49scoreboard, that is for sure. So everybody can see it.
- 54:53It's. Probably very small.
- 54:54They they were probably like, hey, this should probably be
- 54:56like 10 more feet up and he's like, no go.
- 54:58From the screen, No 10 feet is going to make a major
- 55:01difference. What an incredible stadium,
- 55:05though. I talked to a lady today who got
- 55:08to go on her 50th birthday. She was a Cowboys fan.
- 55:11Whatever. But she got to go.
- 55:13Her brother set it all up. She showed us pictures and
- 55:16stuff. She had a blast at this at a
