  What is happening everybody? Happy, happy Thanksgiving.
• 0:17
  Welcome to a very special Thanksgiving edition of the
• 0:22
  show. Looks like I'm probably going to
• 0:24
  be flying solo tonight, but you never know who may or may not
• 0:31
  show up to the whole deal. You never know.
• 0:34
  Jr. May.
• 0:34
  Jr. is currently in Houma, Louisiana with family, so
• 0:39
  probably not going to hear from him tonight.
• 0:42
  I heard from Blasey this afternoon.
• 0:44
  He may chime in later on tonight.
• 0:47
  He was running somewhere. He was on the road too, of
• 0:51
  course. It's a heavy travel day.
• 0:53
  Some say maybe the biggest travel day of the year.
• 0:58
  And I can tell you just by the traffic in Baton Rouge, LA
• 1:02
  today, it was some kind of terrible.
• 1:05
  So I know it's been bad everywhere, but look, really,
• 1:08
  really happy to be here tonight. This is going to be a fun, fun
• 1:12
  show. But before we kind of jump into
• 1:15
  it, I got us just just got to say, look to the Bubba Army.
• 1:19
  You guys have been incredible. Your support has has been
• 1:24
  everything to us and we couldn't be doing it without all of
• 1:27
  y'all. All the new followers that we
• 1:30
  have on social media and we've gained so many here recently.
• 1:33
  It's been been nuts. It's just been crazy.
• 1:37
  Welcome to the family and everybody who's been rocking
• 1:41
  with us. For a while, since either of you
• 1:43
  were here with us on day one or you just found us, we're so, so
• 1:47
  grateful for all of you guys. Thank you, thank you, thank you
• 1:51
  for being a part of the show. See some guys in the chat right
• 1:56
  now like Mr. Paul Rogers is in the house, Tiggy in the gang,
• 2:01
  Miss Stacy G is in the house, every Tigs bits.
• 2:06
  And that is a fact. Everybody loves Tigs bits.
• 2:10
  Speaking of, JRJR sent us a few a few pictures this week.
• 2:17
  He's got a guy who's working on designing some T-shirts.
• 2:21
  One of those says everyone loves Tigs bits.
• 2:24
  It looks cool. Still working on that.
• 2:27
  There's a little Tigs bits for y'all with some of the stuff.
• 2:31
  And look, I'm going to be real with y'all.
• 2:33
  This has been one of the busiest seasons of my life and between
• 2:38
  the show, the podcast, just trying to keep up with
• 2:42
  everything, it's been non-stop. And because of that, some of
• 2:46
  this amazing content that Blasey and I've got from Tales from the
• 2:50
  Tailgate has been sitting in the vault until now.
• 2:55
  And tonight we're going to bring you all of those, pretty much
• 2:59
  all of those. Not everything, there's
• 3:00
  definitely not everything. There's still a lot of stuff
• 3:03
  left in the tank from from the he's, but we're going to bring
• 3:07
  you a lot of the from that Alabama, that Vanderbilt game,
• 3:12
  tailgate, really not the game. We don't want to talk about the
• 3:15
  Alabama game. Finally, just willing to even
• 3:17
  look at the footage to be honest with you.
• 3:20
  Dark day, dark day for Tiggy, but we moved on.
• 3:24
  Like I said then, we never lost a tailgate, but there's some
• 3:28
  funny stuff, there's some heartfelt stuff.
• 3:31
  There's some legendary memories that we have and and it wouldn't
• 3:35
  be a Thanksgiving show if we didn't talk a little bit about
• 3:38
  food, maybe some football and all of that good stuff that
• 3:41
  makes this time of year so very special.
• 3:46
  And plus, look, I want to hear from y'all tonight.
• 3:49
  We want to hear from you. Let us know as we play this
• 3:51
  clip. Look, I got 13 clips to to show
• 3:55
  tonight. Fingers crossed that the
• 3:57
  Internet will will work right. It's been a little janky on me
• 4:01
  today for some reason. And I mean, what would what
• 4:04
  would a show be if we didn't have a little bit of some type
• 4:08
  of a technical issue? I don't think it would be any
• 4:10
  fun. So anyhow, grab you a plate,
• 4:14
  pour yourself a drink. Let's dive into this
• 4:18
  Thanksgiving celebration. I I'm so glad that y'all are
• 4:22
  here and without any further ado, I think I'm just going to
• 4:25
  start playing these. We'll see how long this last.
• 4:29
  I'm going to give you a little commentary, a little banter in
• 4:32
  between each one, maybe a little setup and this first one you may
• 4:39
  have seen any of you guys who follow us.
• 4:41
  You probably have seen the the video that we put out with these
• 4:47
  young ladies place. He asked him, what's your what's
• 4:50
  the wildest thing that you've seen at a tailgate?
• 4:52
  That is what this interview is, but this is the full interview
• 4:56
  with them. It's hilarious.
• 4:58
  And then I back that one up with something crazy.
• 5:01
  So let's just let's just jump in it.
• 5:03
  Would you like to be on our podcast?
• 5:05
  We're trying to interview some people talking about the LSU
• 5:07
  football. I'm just a visitor here.
• 5:10
  Welcome some of y'all local here.
• 5:14
  We're from Lafayette, so about an hour.
• 5:23
  The last time I was here, it's been like five years ago.
• 5:26
  I wanted to say why pigs, I'll help you out, but I was here a
• 5:29
  few years ago and I've only been here like once.
• 5:31
  Like this is crazy tailgating on another level.
• 5:34
  Like would y'all agree? I mean, have you ever been to
• 5:36
  anything else like this? No, there's nothing like this.
• 5:38
  We've tried to go to away games and like, it's fun, but it's
• 5:41
  nothing like home. She's like, I got to have fun.
• 5:46
  Are you ready now? She's like, I got food, I got
• 5:50
  foodie, I got foodie guys. So let me, let me ask you this.
• 5:55
  So I've never seen tailgate like this.
• 5:57
  I'm I'm from Alabama, but I'm a Troy guy.
• 5:59
  I'm not an Alabama or Auburn fan.
• 6:01
  I I lost anything. I know.
• 6:04
  Yeah, yeah. It was a good, it was a good
• 6:06
  game though, 2017, we were here last.
• 6:09
  But anyway, yeah, you know, we won that game.
• 6:12
  You know that. Yeah, Troy played LSU here,
• 6:22
  2017. We did win.
• 6:25
  Yeah, I was here. It was absolutely big.
• 6:27
  LSU guy. I like LSU.
• 6:30
  Why would you? Why would you, right?
• 6:32
  Why would you? Ever.
• 6:33
  Enough. Enough about Troy's success here
• 6:35
  in Baton Rouge. Let's get back to you.
• 6:37
  Look, so the question is like, what's the craziest thing that
• 6:42
  you've ever seen at a tailgate in the.
• 6:46
  Craziest thing? Hold on, birthday boy.
• 6:47
  Come here. What's the craziest thing you've
• 6:50
  ever seen at a tailgate? I don't.
• 6:56
  I can't see it. Honestly, I've seen my fair
• 6:59
  share of streakers. Well, you see some streakers
• 7:02
  here, huh? Oh yeah, fair share of
• 7:03
  streakers. Fair share.
• 7:04
  I mean, that's more than one. Or two, I can probably more than
• 7:07
  one hand I can count. Wow.
• 7:09
  Any big game, you'll see a streaker today.
• 7:12
  Whether it's in the stadium or inside a tailgate, you will see
• 7:14
  a streaker today. Wow, we've got a prediction of a
• 7:16
  streaker today. I've never seen a streaker in
• 7:20
  any college football. Unbelievable.
• 7:26
  We have a prediction here. So wow, So based on that.
• 7:32
  Best in the world? Best in the world.
• 7:33
  There it is, folks. Best in the world.
• 7:36
  Let's go, Joe. Joseph Trivinero, folks.
• 7:38
  Joe. Let's go, Joe.
• 7:43
  Let's go, Joe. So what's the craziest thing
• 7:45
  you've ever done in a tailgate? I'm not too crazy.
• 7:49
  So you've got to keep it tucked in, huh?
• 7:51
  You keep it tucked. You're crazy tucked in.
• 7:53
  That's good. Yeah.
• 7:55
  I didn't know if you were, like, measuring those two or three top
• 7:58
  items based on your own personal experience.
• 8:02
  So you've never been a streaker across campus?
• 8:04
  No, You know how to get a job. I understand.
• 8:08
  It's always helpful. It's always helpful.
• 8:10
  Well, listen, this is fabulous. I'd like to catch up with y'all
• 8:13
  maybe a little bit later today. Let's send this thing on roll.
• 8:16
  It's only what, like 1:00? This is crazy.
• 8:20
  I mean, do y'all think y'all can keep the stamina going for the
• 8:24
  rest of the afternoon? You can't drink all day.
• 8:27
  You don't start in the morning. Great boy folks, great advice.
• 8:30
  Look at that. See y'all folks later.
• 8:36
  It's just classic, classic, classic tiger tailgating right
• 8:41
  there is what that is. Look who has chimed in, it is
• 8:46
  Mr. Jr. What is going on Brother Jr.
• 8:49
  Hope y'all are having a good night in God's city of Houma, LA
• 8:55
  tonight. But you heard it there.
• 9:00
  That young lady made a prediction of a streaker
• 9:03
  unbeknownst to myself, knowing what possibly could happen next.
• 9:09
  Here's another interview that confirms some things.
• 9:14
  With Tig's bits, don't get the letters in burst, ladies.
• 9:17
  I will. Never, never, no, no, never.
• 9:20
  So where y'all from? Yeah.
• 9:25
  How much y'all bitch body? Weight.
• 9:31
  What do y'all know about Bubba the Love Sponge?
• 9:35
  Teach me. Bubba.
• 9:37
  Was. Extorted in a sex scandal by a
• 9:41
  guy named Mike Coulter. He had a sex tape with Hulk
• 9:45
  Hogan. You know who Hulk Hogan is?
• 9:48
  Well, Bubba didn't have a sex tape with him necessarily, just
• 9:52
  was involved. He let his wife have sex with
• 9:54
  Hulk. Hogan.
• 9:56
  That's scandalous. It is very scandalous and that's
• 10:01
  what happened. And then, somehow or another,
• 10:04
  this tape got leaked out to a website called Gawker.
• 10:08
  Yikes. Yeah, and here we are jogging
• 10:12
  about it. Bottom line, there'll be a
• 10:14
  documentary. This guy named Mike Count is a
• 10:17
  total fraud and that'll be revealed.
• 10:22
  OK, what do y'all think about the live Tiger tonight?
• 10:26
  What do you think? I mean, he's going to be there
• 10:29
  regardless if you have an opinion or not, so.
• 10:33
  Let's get Blacy in here. What is?
• 10:35
  The craziest thing you've ever seen in a tailgate out here?
• 10:38
  Like what's blowing your mind the most?
• 10:39
  It doesn't. Take much to see something
• 10:42
  crazy. I know it's like every time,
• 10:44
  right? Like every.
• 10:45
  Few minutes. Actually, it's just.
• 10:49
  Not crazy, you know, I actually can't agree more because I every
• 10:52
  time I think I've seen something, I've seen something
• 10:54
  else. Look in the distance and you see
• 10:57
  something. Just look up just.
• 10:58
  Look around, you know that's a strong prediction of a not a
• 11:01
  streaker today. I've already seen.
• 11:04
  You've already seen a streaker today.
• 11:05
  There we go. It's already happened.
• 11:07
  The streaker has happened. Unbelievable.
• 11:09
  That what they told us earlier, we ran an interview, they were
• 11:13
  like, I guarantee there's going to be a streaker before the days
• 11:15
  out. Unbelievable.
• 11:18
  Right. What else?
• 11:20
  What? Why would you not expect it?
• 11:23
  She said. She act like I was a fool for
• 11:25
  thinking otherwise. This is great.
• 11:27
  Good luck to the Tigers. Everything else you want to say?
• 11:36
  We had so much fun that day. Those ladies were hilarious.
• 11:42
  Just there's more to that interview.
• 11:44
  There's more to a pretty much all of these interviews, but for
• 11:48
  the most part try to get the best out.
• 11:50
  So I hope y'all are keeping track at home of which ones that
• 11:55
  that you're liking the most 'cause we're going to circle
• 11:58
  back here at the end and and we'll go from there.
• 12:01
  But we had as we have had all year long, we've had some
• 12:05
  interesting folks that have that have been to the tailgate.
• 12:10
  They've come from all across the United States from, well, just
• 12:15
  in this one, we're going to talk to some folks from South Dakota,
• 12:18
  from Iowa. And then we talked to these
• 12:21
  folks who were from Denver, Co, and Blasey played a little
• 12:26
  trivia with them and it was kind of fun.
• 12:28
  So here we go in Colorado, Denver.
• 12:32
  Denver, all three of you All right?
• 12:33
  Yeah. OK, cool.
• 12:34
  So did you go to school here? Did you graduate from here or my
• 12:38
  wife's from here? So you're.
• 12:40
  From here, Yeah. Born and raised Louisiana.
• 12:44
  Fazio, Louisiana. They're like South Central.
• 12:48
  You've really lost the accent a little bit.
• 12:51
  You've actually had to work on that, I can tell.
• 12:53
  Yeah. So how did how did you con them?
• 12:56
  And so I feel like you con them into coming down here, right?
• 12:59
  No, it didn't take much convincing.
• 13:01
  I mean, it's an LSU baseball football game and then it's
• 13:04
  against Bama, So what do you expect?
• 13:06
  What are y'all looking forward to most about the whole day?
• 13:09
  We still got an hour. We got six hours.
• 13:11
  We'll kick off. Yeah.
• 13:11
  What are y'all? What are y'all looking forward
• 13:13
  to? I think just a good game and the
• 13:15
  atmosphere. I mean, never been to an SEC
• 13:17
  game before, so this is incredible.
• 13:20
  So it's your first game? First SEC game.
• 13:22
  Wow, it's a big, it's big time, huh?
• 13:25
  What compared to this? Like what's the next biggest
• 13:28
  thing that you've been to? I know this is the biggest
• 13:29
  thing. I've been to a World Series.
• 13:31
  Game. That's pretty big.
• 13:34
  What what World Series was that? The Rockies versus the Red Sox?
• 13:38
  Where was that at Colorado? Like the ball's just flying now.
• 13:42
  The damn stadium, right? Oh my God, That's that's so
• 13:45
  awesome. So what about you?
• 13:46
  And like what's what do you think compares to this, like on
• 13:49
  this level? Man, not a whole lot.
• 13:51
  I mean, we grow up like watching this on TV, even in Colorado and
• 13:54
  know the the expectancy and the expectations of the game.
• 13:58
  So it's it's just fun to be here.
• 13:59
  Watch the SEC football, watch the Tigers win today.
• 14:03
  No, it's, it's, it's phenomenal. I do, I do have one question.
• 14:05
  Let's see if we got some LSU history facts.
• 14:08
  Who is the greatest rusher in school history at LSU?
• 14:12
  Kevin Faulk, Kevin Faulk. Bam.
• 14:15
  Kevin Faulk. He got it.
• 14:16
  Absolutely. Look at that.
• 14:18
  That's hey, that's, that's really good stuff. 2007 Who was
• 14:23
  the coach when they won a national championship 2?
• 14:28
  1007 Nick Saban left it before that, yeah.
• 14:31
  He did. I can't.
• 14:33
  I can't tell you. And no, not even for a takes bit
• 14:37
  sticker because we got a takes bit sticker for you.
• 14:39
  I can't. I've got to give you one anyway.
• 14:42
  No, it was Les Miles, correct? Wow, look at that.
• 14:46
  Look at this coming in with some how.
• 14:47
  Quickly, Les has been erased. Unbelievable.
• 14:50
  Wow. He was a champion.
• 14:52
  He was a champion here. Just like a good buddy Ed
• 14:54
  Ogeron, who was a friggin legend.
• 14:57
  Eddy here today. Yeah.
• 14:58
  Is Ed here today? He's always son earlier.
• 15:02
  He's tailgating with us. His son is tailgating here.
• 15:05
  Brantley, do you do you have any closing questions for him here?
• 15:07
  No, man, I think you did a great job.
• 15:09
  I heard everything. Welcome.
• 15:11
  I hope that y'all are having a blast.
• 15:13
  Continue to have fun. This thing only rises.
• 15:18
  It's just like a it's like a floating ship.
• 15:20
  And by 5:00 today, you just be careful, tread lightly, but get
• 15:25
  ready. Get ready, get ready.
• 15:27
  Like he said, Do you have to be honest with yourself?
• 15:32
  This is the absolute Primo in tailgating.
• 15:37
  If they say the cream rises to the top and folks, it is way up
• 15:40
  there, I better get to shred in a little bit.
• 15:42
  See y'all. The cream does rise to the top
• 15:47
  and it was definitely rising that day.
• 15:50
  It was it was so much fun. I couldn't believe that that
• 15:55
  that they didn't realize that that they didn't get Les Miles.
• 15:58
  And it is interesting to me that Les Miles is kind of being
• 16:02
  erased a little bit. But I mean, they're not die hard
• 16:05
  fans. I get that.
• 16:06
  But how do you forget the hat? You can't forget the the hat,
• 16:10
  the Mad Hatter, he ate grass on the sidelines.
• 16:14
  Love the fact that they knew it was Kevin Falk.
• 16:16
  However, Kevin Falk, my favorite LSU player of all time.
• 16:20
  That may surprise some of you. No recency bias with Joe Burrow
• 16:24
  and all of the amazing things that he did here, but Kevin
• 16:28
  Falk, Tiggy's all time favorite. Ed is a character, Paul, that
• 16:35
  is, That is for sure. What was so funny about that is
• 16:40
  I wish Blasey was in here to to tell it.
• 16:42
  There is a guy, there's a guy he tailgates with us all the time
• 16:46
  and he's been tailgating with us for a while.
• 16:47
  But this guy, he he really and truly looks like he could be Ed
• 16:52
  Orgeron's son. I scanned through all of the
• 16:55
  footage. I was hoping that I had
• 16:57
  something of him, which I'm just surprised that I bet I didn't in
• 17:00
  these, but I I have to somewhere.
• 17:02
  But good guy. Can't remember his name, but
• 17:05
  that's who Blasey was referencing is kind of like an
• 17:07
  inside joke. But it was it was hilarious,
• 17:11
  man. It was hilarious.
• 17:12
  So the next, the next little video that I'm going to show is
• 17:17
  the camaraderie, if you will, between Blasey, our friend JD
• 17:24
  that that has been in some of the clips that we've done.
• 17:27
  They've also left some very interesting voicemails with our,
• 17:31
  our voicemail number that you can now call, leave us a
• 17:34
  voicemail if you would like to maybe get on the air.
• 17:37
  I know Paul has done it before. We've had a couple of others
• 17:41
  that the number is easy to remember.
• 17:43
  It's 225-800-3058. That's 225800 3058 but give us
• 17:53
  give us a call, leave us a message, a message.
• 17:56
  Leave us a message and and and let us know what you think.
• 18:00
  Tell us about what do you think about the show, what you think
• 18:03
  we should do what you would like to see more of what you thought
• 18:06
  about this whatever. Tell us anything will be your
• 18:10
  therapist. Who knows?
• 18:11
  I don't know if you want us to be your therapist.
• 18:13
  That would maybe be a little bit crazy and you would be a little
• 18:17
  crazy if you want to do that, but we can do that if that's
• 18:20
  what we need to do. I also want to mention I think I
• 18:23
  did at the top of the show, but if not, our Bubba exclusive
• 18:28
  podcast is out right now. Dropped it today.
• 18:31
  I finished that little sucker this morning.
• 18:33
  We just recorded it last night with with Gary Cantrell had an
• 18:38
  amazing conversation. We dove into all of the stuff
• 18:42
  that was in the content house. That was if, if you guys don't
• 18:45
  follow the Bubba Army, you should.
• 18:47
  You should go look up Bubba the love sponge, the Bubba Army on
• 18:50
  all the socials. And we have a podcast over
• 18:53
  there. A lot of you guys that are in
• 18:55
  here of course know that, but our, our, our podcast dropped
• 18:59
  today. So we had no idea if it would
• 19:02
  come after Thanksgiving next week or whatever.
• 19:05
  We're going to actually, I'm going to be hitting the road
• 19:07
  again, you know, and I've been super busy, like I've said that
• 19:11
  this fall, which we've all, we're always busy, but a lot of
• 19:15
  times I've been able to be the anchor and be here in studio,
• 19:19
  which is where all of the stuff is that we edit our show and all
• 19:23
  of that. I can't take it all with me on
• 19:25
  the road and I don't have the the good don't have good enough
• 19:29
  Internet to mess with it all. So that slowed us down a little
• 19:33
  bit. We're going to catch up some
• 19:34
  tonight and a lot of these clips and stuff like that.
• 19:37
  I've been wanting to get them out.
• 19:39
  We hadn't been able to go live. We're going to have his little
• 19:43
  Thanksgiving feast with it. But here's the clip with JD and
• 19:47
  Blacy and us and me having a little fun.
• 19:50
  Witching Hour has. Begun.
• 19:52
  We have approached 3:00 in Death Valley and and we have with us
• 19:58
  today our good friend and colleague JD.
• 20:02
  Lawrence. Yeah, AKA the Doberman, folks,
• 20:06
  if you need him. The Doberman, he's in
• 20:07
  Birmingham, AL. And I'm telling you what if
• 20:10
  you've been ran over by a fire truck, a diesel, even some sort
• 20:14
  of a snowmobile, this is your guy right here.
• 20:17
  He's going to take care of you. He chases ambulances for a
• 20:19
  living. He is as good as they get.
• 20:20
  No, I'm kid you not. He is a personal defense
• 20:22
  attorney up there. An injury happens.
• 20:25
  That's the guy that you want. Not not defense, but personal
• 20:27
  injury, right. Yeah, Whatever.
• 20:29
  That's my best plug for you guys.
• 20:30
  Thank you. Shameless ambulance chase an
• 20:33
  asshole. Yeah, thank you.
• 20:35
  Thank you for the kind words. Yeah, but I look, been here
• 20:39
  since 9:00 this morning. Been to every Alabama LSU game
• 20:44
  in Tuscaloosa for the last probably 20 years.
• 20:50
  This is probably one of the best experiences of our best
• 20:53
  Tailgates experience. I've been around.
• 20:56
  With college football, this is what it's all about.
• 20:59
  This is really where it's at and the Cajun Tiger tailgate, as
• 21:03
  it's becoming not only known across the South, it's and known
• 21:08
  across the United States, it's becoming internationally known
• 21:13
  as we have discovered today with a an interview that we had
• 21:16
  earlier with a guy from the Netherlands.
• 21:18
  I mean, it really makes sense. It is the cathedral.
• 21:23
  Boston, Iowa, they're here from everywhere.
• 21:26
  They found out about this tailgate specifically and off
• 21:29
  Alabama, like they know about it worldwide and that and that's
• 21:32
  true statement like it's amazing what you guys do here.
• 21:35
  This is next level, the highest level of tailgating that I've
• 21:39
  ever seen. It's it is.
• 21:41
  It speaks for itself. What are your thoughts?
• 21:44
  Highest level of ass kisses I've ever heard.
• 21:47
  It may be, but it's true. Both of you did it and we got it
• 21:52
  on camera. I mean, it should.
• 21:54
  Facts are facts. It doesn't matter what facts are
• 21:57
  facts. It's a fact.
• 21:59
  Yeah. I mean, we've been to a tailgate
• 22:00
  even close to this, even remotely close to this.
• 22:02
  I mean, I mean, I kid you not. It's like like a rocket.
• 22:05
  It's like Elon Musk landed a rocket back down.
• 22:08
  And that holder versus NASA blowing shit up in space, you
• 22:11
  know what I mean? That's that's the difference
• 22:12
  right here, you know. Like, if you're not, you don't
• 22:16
  have to be a Tiger fan to come here.
• 22:17
  You come here to the Cajun Tiger Tailgate, we will welcome you
• 22:21
  with open arms. You're going to eat good.
• 22:23
  You're going to drink good. We're making America great
• 22:27
  again. You know what we're doing Even
• 22:28
  more on Blasey. We're making tailgating great
• 22:31
  again. And not that it is ever bad, but
• 22:34
  it ain't never any better than it is here, brother, that is.
• 22:42
  A absolute fact. That is an absolute fact.
• 22:47
  Doesn't matter if the tigers are good.
• 22:50
  If the tigers are bad, it has no bearing.
• 22:54
  It has, no, it doesn't just it simply doesn't matter.
• 22:58
  And you know what else doesn't matter?
• 23:02
  Well, he does matter. He matters a lot.
• 23:05
  He's coming from that interview as hoped.
• 23:09
  Let me bring him in. Mr. Blasey, the one man posse.
• 23:11
  He is in the house. Wow, what is happening, man?
• 23:14
  What's going on, buddy? I thought I was going to let you
• 23:16
  hold down the whole thing tonight.
• 23:17
  I got in there and got comfortable.
• 23:18
  I sit on the couch and I sit down and I was like, you know
• 23:21
  what? I got to go join in on this
• 23:22
  party, you know, so I mean you. Were a part of it.
• 23:25
  You were a part of the party. I know that was so fun.
• 23:28
  Dude, what a tailgate. I mean, that's, that's a that's
• 23:31
  such a great experience. I mean, just it's so fun all
• 23:34
  day. I mean, I left what, about 430
• 23:38
  hour and a half, four-game time, 4:30, I'm taking a nap, You
• 23:41
  know, I was done and all I need. Is it's not for the weak at
• 23:45
  heart and you don't even have to be.
• 23:47
  You don't have to be drinking or anything like that.
• 23:49
  You mean you just go, it's just all day long.
• 23:54
  I mean, it's just you're walking, you're standing up.
• 23:57
  You don't, you know, there's just, there's so many.
• 24:00
  If you have attention deficit or even remotely, it's going to be
• 24:05
  like a squirrel opinion like I was.
• 24:07
  Yeah, like me too. Yeah.
• 24:10
  And can't figure out what's up with the camera shaking thing
• 24:14
  that I've still got going on. Blasey.
• 24:17
  Who cares? I don't know either.
• 24:18
  So you're still, you're still shaking.
• 24:20
  Yeah, I guess I am. I came in first time for a
• 24:23
  minute and I was watching it on my phone and for whatever reason
• 24:27
  when I was in backstage, the video that you were playing was
• 24:30
  real, was breaking up. But on my phone it was clear as
• 24:32
  a bell, like I'm still watching. I thought that's strange.
• 24:34
  So I went, went out and came back in.
• 24:36
  But seems to be better now, yeah?
• 24:39
  Maybe we just needed you in here.
• 24:41
  Maybe so. That's probably what it is.
• 24:43
  That's all it is. Paul says.
• 24:44
  That we we know how to have fun down here.
• 24:47
  Yeah, that's that's an understatement.
• 24:50
  Funds never been, the statement. It's when when they pull up on
• 24:53
  the reins, that's always the issue.
• 24:55
  When do you pull back, you know? It is it is what what what came
• 24:59
  across today is I was chopped some of these videos up and I
• 25:02
  know that maybe they're not as loud as y'all maybe not can hear
• 25:05
  them quite as well kept the volume down on them a little
• 25:09
  bit. Whenever I put them into other
• 25:10
  stuff I'll mess with the the audio on it but how that mic
• 25:16
  works in that like you'll hear. We're over here.
• 25:20
  We're kind of like we're screaming and you're like, why
• 25:22
  are y'all screaming into the mic?
• 25:23
  It's because there's a damn concert going on behind us.
• 25:26
  Like literally it's 100 decibels.
• 25:29
  If it's if it's ten, it's 100. And and somehow or another,
• 25:34
  these mics still are able to isolate your vocals and drown
• 25:39
  out a lot of the music. Maybe not necessarily all of the
• 25:42
  music, but a lot of it. So.
• 25:44
  Yeah, but but you had to scream in order for those people to
• 25:47
  hear you, especially those under the tent, near the tent.
• 25:50
  When you got away from the tent, it was a little bit better, you
• 25:53
  know, near the tree. But we got under the tent, which
• 25:56
  was right under those speakers. It's just special, you know?
• 25:59
  I'll scream at those girls, my veins popping out of my neck.
• 26:01
  You know, I thought I was having a stroke or something.
• 26:05
  That's the first video I showed and if you in case you missed
• 26:09
  it. So I started out with the with
• 26:11
  the video of of the late lovely ladies under the tent and then
• 26:15
  those lovely ladies that we talked to outside that saw a
• 26:19
  streaker. You kept telling me that I never
• 26:21
  I couldn't hear. I mean, I'm 5 feet from you.
• 26:24
  I never heard it. You can hear me faintly go.
• 26:27
  They did what? You.
• 26:30
  Can hear me say that what they say?
• 26:33
  Yeah, so that, I mean that's a bingo clip right there, like you
• 26:36
  had said. I was like, man, what is he
• 26:38
  talking about? Yeah, we have validation of a
• 26:41
  streaker. Yeah.
• 26:42
  Obviously it took me until today to get to that video.
• 26:47
  I've been mourning and it's been tough, tough stretch for the
• 26:51
  Tigers prior to that, during that and after that and it but
• 26:55
  that's really not the excuse. The the real truth is that I
• 26:58
  ain't been home. And it's really, it's really
• 27:00
  the. Truth.
• 27:00
  I understand. I understand.
• 27:02
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 27:03
  Now that's a lot. There's a lot of video there as
• 27:06
  well. You know what I mean?
• 27:07
  It's a lot to chop up a lot of little bits and pieces.
• 27:09
  There it is. Video just you're getting out
• 27:13
  of. You're getting the the best of
• 27:15
  the best, the best of the interviews and we've just got
• 27:18
  several more. We're not even halfway through
• 27:20
  these things, which is, which is awesome.
• 27:24
  Some of them are short, like this one's, this one's fairly
• 27:26
  short, but this guy, this guy in he won the MVP of the day.
• 27:32
  So let's talk to. Him in you tailgate MVP always
• 27:39
  man how you doing doing fantastic.
• 27:42
  I did you stay out here all last night?
• 27:45
  I figured you did been there since 4:00 this morning.
• 27:48
  The resiliency that you've shown today to hang on.
• 27:53
  Where do you get this internal fortitude from?
• 27:58
  I'm right there and the and the purple shirt that's Darren.
• 28:04
  Where are you at right now? Like are you in a rally state?
• 28:09
  Are you? One of the.
• 28:11
  Biggest right here. One of the biggest tailgate we
• 28:15
  got right now. No doubt about it.
• 28:19
  Thanks for playing and congratulations this week's
• 28:24
  Tales from the Tailgate MV. Let's go.
• 28:33
  I thought he was going to. Give me a high 5.
• 28:35
  And I realized he ain't he ain't.
• 28:38
  How was that guy still standing at that point?
• 28:39
  What a what an absolute machine. He'd been up all night that
• 28:43
  morning, got there at 4:00 AM. Is that what he said?
• 28:45
  And he? Was taking a nap.
• 28:46
  You've been there all night Because.
• 28:47
  Because he recalled. Nap on his tailgate.
• 28:50
  Yes, I mean, that was what was happening when we walked up
• 28:53
  like, Dang, he got out there at 4:00, we got out there at 8:30
• 28:57
  or 9:00 and but saw him this past weekend at the Vanderbilt
• 29:03
  game, no issues. I've never seen him like that
• 29:06
  ever. So wasn't making fun of him at
• 29:08
  all. He was impressive that he had
• 29:10
  rallied. That's unbelievable.
• 29:12
  That's what I mean. He was sleeping.
• 29:13
  He was sitting there napping at 8:30 and he's like, oh, you got
• 29:15
  to. He's done, but he's back and on
• 29:17
  his feet and rolling. Yeah, he did great.
• 29:20
  Unreal. Unreal.
• 29:22
  Proud of him. Proud of him.
• 29:25
  And then here comes some music. So this next interview probably
• 29:29
  will get us a copyright strike. Who cares?
• 29:32
  And because it's unavoidable with the music.
• 29:36
  So once again, Jacob, the interview's fantastic, but we
• 29:42
  still have some work to do. We just got to turn the volume
• 29:44
  down, I think a little bit. This is when you finally got the
• 29:47
  interview, but it's. Finally loud and it's still loud
• 29:50
  and yes. And then I listen to it and it's
• 29:51
  like, well, I mean, but we're in the belly of the bee.
• 29:56
  We are, yeah. Jacob Jacob, our DJ here at the
• 30:08
  Cajun Tiger Tailgate. Cajun Tiger Tailgate.
• 30:12
  Cajun Tiger Tailgate. This man's been wearing number
• 30:14
  one. I didn't prep you on this, but
• 30:17
  how long have you had this beautiful suit?
• 30:19
  Tell us where did you get it and all that we need to know about
• 30:23
  it. I've had this beautiful suit
• 30:24
  since the first game this year in Las Vegas, which we went to.
• 30:28
  I felt it was appropriate for Elvis and I got it from China.
• 30:34
  China. China.
• 30:35
  China, Donald. Trump 2024, by the way, he
• 30:38
  actually won. It's a bad wave.
• 30:42
  So yes, I plan on wearing it for the entire season until I have
• 30:46
  to retire it because it is falling apart.
• 30:49
  This is not made like things that are made in America.
• 30:52
  This was made in China, not America.
• 30:55
  Home of the break and home of the break.
• 31:00
  There's a good chance that it's going to die tonight.
• 31:02
  Adam knows what I'm talking about.
• 31:04
  You can't see him. He's off camera.
• 31:05
  Beautiful man. One of the most beautiful men
• 31:08
  that I know. Really big guy, Really big guy.
• 31:11
  He's one of the best. Billions and billions of dollars
• 31:14
  he will bring to this. So I got to ask you, what do you
• 31:17
  think about them parading a live Tiger around the Tiger Stadium
• 31:23
  for the first time from my understanding since 2015?
• 31:27
  What are you? What are your thoughts on that?
• 31:29
  My thoughts, I'm a little torn to be honest.
• 31:31
  I can go one of two ways, either the left or the right.
• 31:34
  I think parading around a tiger, a cat who is afraid of that type
• 31:39
  of environment is harmful on its health.
• 31:41
  But at the same time, this is this is LSU, we have the only
• 31:44
  live tiger mascot. It's about passion and bringing
• 31:47
  energy to that stadium, which is going to be energy all over
• 31:51
  tonight. It's going to be unreal.
• 31:53
  Just like two years ago when we beat Bama in overtime, it was
• 31:56
  unreal. It was like 24 to 21 when we
• 31:59
  beat Florida. Tim Tebow when he was crying on
• 32:01
  the sidelines, I was there. That was the loudest I've ever
• 32:03
  heard Tiger Stadium when Jacob Hester punched it through with a
• 32:06
  few minutes left in the fourth quarter to beat.
• 32:09
  Florida. Sorry I said a bad word.
• 32:11
  You cannot curse. But anyway, it's all about
• 32:13
  passion. But at the same time, I'm kind
• 32:15
  of torn about it to be honest. Just being honest.
• 32:19
  I haven't given my personal take, and I'm going to give it
• 32:22
  right now. I think it's dumb.
• 32:24
  It's just a waste of everybody's time.
• 32:26
  The name of the tiger is Omar. He's not even Mike.
• 32:30
  It's a fomite. Yeah, the.
• 32:32
  Tiger is. Yeah.
• 32:34
  Omar do that. Why would you bring in Omar?
• 32:37
  That is a mistake. I'm sorry.
• 32:38
  That is, you're really asking to work against a lot of things.
• 32:42
  You bring Omar the tiger in versus what?
• 32:44
  I mean, who is Omar? What's happening?
• 32:46
  I mean, it's a. Political ploy is what it is.
• 32:49
  I don't like it at all guys I hope y'all can overcome this.
• 32:51
  This is a really bad. It's a big doubt.
• 32:54
  It's not Mike. Even if it was Mike, they should
• 32:56
  be parading him around because that's not helpful for the cat's
• 33:01
  mental state. Because.
• 33:02
  I never thought I would be on Peta's side, but here I stand on
• 33:06
  Peta's side. Unbelievable.
• 33:08
  It's really right, Omar. The Tiger cannot come into the
• 33:11
  stadium and try to. I mean, it's all about passion
• 33:14
  drive and performance. Passion, drive, performance.
• 33:16
  Don't have to be doing it without that Tiger you.
• 33:19
  Don't need Omar the Tiger for that.
• 33:21
  Not at all. Not at all.
• 33:23
  You know what? I hope the LSU football team can
• 33:26
  overcome the idiots that made that decision.
• 33:29
  And Alabama. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
• 33:33
  I do have a question. What is your role in this
• 33:36
  carnival experience that I'm. I am the DJ and I am the What is
• 33:44
  the word? There's a Cajun word for it.
• 33:47
  I can't think of it. I don't know.
• 33:48
  You know what, I'm going to come back to that.
• 33:50
  No, I don't think you're no, But no, I feel the I take request
• 33:57
  whatever anybody wants to feel. It's about the people.
• 34:00
  Just like this tailgate. It's about the camaraderie, the
• 34:03
  family, the fellowship and the one common goal we all have.
• 34:08
  LSU Tigers. Let's go.
• 34:16
  Omar, That was the Omar interview.
• 34:17
  Yeah, that was a mistake. We knew it was a mistake.
• 34:20
  It set the tone for the whole damn day.
• 34:22
  You just mean the whole situation when you did.
• 34:24
  That really, really did. It really did.
• 34:27
  And I bet you that doesn't happen again.
• 34:29
  I guarantee you last time you'll ever see a live Tiger in the
• 34:34
  stadium because the crowd was not pleased with it at all.
• 34:38
  I don't. I mean, there was some cheers.
• 34:40
  I mean, I'm just standing there. This light shines on it.
• 34:44
  They unveil it. It's like this is this is not
• 34:48
  how we've started any game in the last 2020 years.
• 34:52
  The Tiger, when it would go around the stadium, they pulled
• 34:55
  it with a truck, same deal, but they would ride that thing
• 35:00
  around the whole stadium and then agitate it and put a mic up
• 35:04
  to it and make it roar and stuff.
• 35:06
  You know, that's where PETA got a little upset with stuff.
• 35:09
  So they they were a lot more gentle with Omar.
• 35:13
  Omar looked like, pretty much like homeboy did the tailgate
• 35:16
  MVP did. When we showed up that morning,
• 35:18
  they were about in the same state.
• 35:20
  Taking a nap? Yeah, yeah.
• 35:22
  So yeah, it was whatever on that whole deal, but it did set the
• 35:28
  tone for a whole Everything just started to collapse after that.
• 35:31
  They show the tiger starts to rain, gets cold.
• 35:35
  Nothing happens for LA. Bad idea.
• 35:37
  That was a bad idea. That was a real bad idea.
• 35:39
  Yeah. We felt like they've just
• 35:41
  brought some bad juju into that place and they brought, I
• 35:44
  couldn't believe that when he says, oh, oh, that's not even
• 35:46
  Mike the tiger. That is Omar from out of town.
• 35:49
  Omar the Tiger from Florida. From Florida.
• 35:52
  I'm sure he's a great tiger. That was the.
• 35:54
  Really. He brought a Florida tiger
• 35:56
  there. Like what is going on here?
• 35:58
  Yeah, I mean, I'm sure he's a great guy.
• 36:00
  I really do. I'm sure he's a great, great
• 36:02
  tiger. He's a really good guy.
• 36:03
  He's one of the best guys, but. Mar a Lago tiger.
• 36:08
  But Speaking of great guys, got a little snippet here with our
• 36:12
  boy Mingo. Mingo got to meet our boy and
• 36:17
  one of our show partners, Mr. Travis Baker, with T Birds, T
• 36:24
  Bird. T Bird himself, T Bird himself
• 36:28
  brought some BBQ sauce to the tailgate.
• 36:30
  Mingo immediately spotted it on the table.
• 36:34
  Didn't put it on stuff, just took the damn bottle.
• 36:36
  Is is what he? Did and you know, but couldn't
• 36:40
  have gone to a better person. I'm glad that he got him got him
• 36:43
  another bottle. Here is that interaction.
• 36:46
  I introduced you to my man right here, T Bird Travis Finger.
• 36:52
  What's up? What's up?
• 36:54
  And it's amazing BBQ sauce. Give us your thoughts on it.
• 36:57
  Shit, my thoughts said. That's been the best ever round
• 37:00
  here, man. It's like a stadium about three
• 37:02
  years. Ago.
• 37:04
  Tears came with some BBQ sauce over here man.
• 37:05
  I said like tears. What is that?
• 37:08
  He said that's my boy Tea birds BBQ sauce.
• 37:10
  I said man, I like it man. And ever since that I've been
• 37:12
  asking about it. So today I rolled up on the
• 37:14
  table and BAM is on the table. Yes, Sir.
• 37:16
  Yes, Sir. I.
• 37:17
  Had to bring the tea birds. I had to bring the tea birds.
• 37:20
  Dude, he makes the best. Where can everybody get tea
• 37:24
  birds? Out there.
• 37:26
  Man check it out. Iron and smoke craft BBQ.
• 37:30
  It's on all social media outlets.
• 37:32
  That's it. Iron and smoke.
• 37:33
  Go look them up on Facebook, Instagram, everywhere else.
• 37:37
  You can order there. I agree 100%.
• 37:41
  Hopefully our friend Mr. Austin Dennis shows up here in a
• 37:44
  minute. He already agrees it's the best
• 37:47
  barbecue sauce in the world because it freaking is the best.
• 37:50
  Barbecue sauce in the. World and we're glad that we can
• 37:54
  promote that here at the Cajun Tiger tailgate just another time
• 37:59
  and. Only one and only Cajun.
• 38:01
  Tiger Tailgate with my boy Bradley.
• 38:03
  Let's go. That's awesome and.
• 38:08
  What we haven't, what we, what we didn't know is the next day,
• 38:12
  Blasey. Oh, yeah, Packing up, putting
• 38:16
  stuff in the car. I'm about to walk out the door.
• 38:19
  I mean, I've got my car fully packed.
• 38:21
  I'm trying to get people to move.
• 38:23
  And then here comes Travis, just with an arm load of Barbie boys.
• 38:29
  Anything like I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
• 38:31
  Let me help you to the door, my man you know open the door, go
• 38:35
  on inside Yeah, I had to load up on that I and I finally used the
• 38:38
  sauce the other day. Dude that is such a like I said,
• 38:40
  I chased. You down the driveway to bring
• 38:42
  you salsa. As you were leaving, I was like,
• 38:43
  you can't leave. You got to take this because I
• 38:45
  knew you would love that. Well, I hadn't tried this is a
• 38:47
  what's the BBQ sauce? I hadn't tried the salsa.
• 38:49
  Oh yeah, and tried the salt. You don't love the salsa?
• 38:51
  I did the the sauce and that glaze and it is a glaze.
• 38:55
  You know what I mean? It's thin.
• 38:56
  It's so good though, man. And like you said, he uses real
• 38:59
  honey in his instead of these honey substitutes like most
• 39:02
  people do. And I just think all that that
• 39:05
  care and that extra effort into that BBQ sauce, it is
• 39:08
  phenomenal. I just glazed some pork chops
• 39:10
  the other day on the grill, finished them with it.
• 39:13
  Oh, I can't wait to like try this on some on on some beef.
• 39:16
  You know, it's so good. It is.
• 39:18
  It is really good. It is.
• 39:20
  It is just, I mean, it really and truly honest to God, is the
• 39:24
  best barbecue sauce that I've ever had.
• 39:26
  Both versions of it, just his regular version is the exact
• 39:30
  same thing. And then he has the hotter
• 39:32
  version, which is the one that I like.
• 39:34
  Yeah, the Cayenne version, the. Cayenne version just it's all
• 39:37
  it's the same thing as the base, but it has little cayenne in it
• 39:41
  so it just takes it up a little bit.
• 39:43
  It's not crazy, crazy hot, just gives it a good kick.
• 39:46
  But it it is that honey, it's the sugar.
• 39:49
  It's it's it's well, well made. I mean well enough made that
• 39:55
  Austin Dennis says it's you know, it is the champion of BBQ
• 40:01
  sauces. It is the best in the world, and
• 40:03
  that's what he. He would know.
• 40:05
  He's had a lot. It really is good and I tried
• 40:08
  the regular one. I didn't do the cayenne.
• 40:10
  I was trying to hit all taste buds.
• 40:11
  But I can't wait to like get off and all of it and try to try
• 40:14
  some more because it is good stuff.
• 40:16
  And where can you get that stuff again?
• 40:18
  You can find them at Iron and Smoke on Facebook, Instagram.
• 40:23
  Those are the two best places. I'm sure you can Google iron and
• 40:27
  smoke barbecue and and just find them.
• 40:30
  If you have a question, you're not able to find them or
• 40:34
  whatever, shoot us Adm and we'll help you link up with them.
• 40:38
  Well worth it. I know there's some guys that
• 40:40
  have been in in the chat that have bought some stuff from T
• 40:43
  birds. I can't recommend the rubs
• 40:46
  enough. I've made a made a video on
• 40:50
  smoking a Turkey breast. Kind of.
• 40:52
  Probably should have saved that video.
• 40:53
  For today, I'm doing that this morning and actually I'm going
• 40:56
  to smoke a Turkey breast and put that wicked chicken rub on
• 40:58
  there. Boom.
• 40:59
  Exactly what you did there. Yeah, you.
• 41:02
  Need to record. That I do.
• 41:04
  Don't. Yes, you do.
• 41:05
  Yes, you do. Good idea.
• 41:06
  Yeah. We can never have enough.
• 41:08
  Content, you know, just never, Yeah.
• 41:11
  But yeah, yes, happy Thanksgiving to you Bubba.
• 41:14
  Bubba fans 69 good seeing Oh. Absolutely, always good seeing
• 41:17
  them in here. Good seeing you let me pull up.
• 41:20
  I was able to load six of these in, and that may be what was
• 41:23
  making my camera jump so jumpy. It's 'cause I had so much stuff
• 41:27
  preloaded and I don't know if it slows it down or not.
• 41:30
  I just didn't want to have to pull it up every single time.
• 41:33
  But whatever. Moving forward, I'm going to.
• 41:36
  Speaking of Austin, this past weekend at the Vanderbilt game,
• 41:41
  I got to catch up with the legendary Cooking with Cajun.
• 41:46
  I couldn't believe it, dude. Like I've been watching, excuse
• 41:51
  me, I've been watching that guy's videos very I mean, for
• 41:55
  the last two or three years since we started this show,
• 41:58
  started building this channel. He's he's in my algorithm and
• 42:02
  all of them, Facebook, TikTok, all of them.
• 42:05
  And I love his content. He makes Cornbread is like MF
• 42:10
  and cornbread is his, is his shtick, his name to fame.
• 42:14
  But there's no shtick about this guy.
• 42:16
  I can tell you that there's going to be more coming from
• 42:20
  him. You don't know this place.
• 42:22
  He I'll announce this right now. I can't remember the date.
• 42:25
  I think it's I want to think it's like March 20th somewhere
• 42:29
  in there. So he lives up in north kind of
• 42:33
  North Central to northwest Arkansas, looks like 40 or 50
• 42:38
  miles east of Fayetteville in the bizarre OK.
• 42:42
  And he has opened a storefront of his place where he's selling
• 42:46
  pots, pans, I don't know what all that seasonings and all of
• 42:50
  his stuff, of course as well, but he's opened up a storefront.
• 42:54
  He's going to have be having a lot of these content creators
• 42:57
  come for the grand opening sometime in March.
• 43:00
  We've been invited to set up a little spot.
• 43:03
  He's going to set us up a spot so we can.
• 43:05
  Interview. All of these.
• 43:07
  This is fantastic. Yeah, he hitting it, Yeah.
• 43:11
  Good news, good news, we've invited to a content creator
• 43:14
  event like this with food involved.
• 43:15
  That's that's right up my alley. Exactly.
• 43:19
  There's another one that made that.
• 43:20
  Lemonade taste a little bit better tonight you.
• 43:22
  Know, didn't it? There's another one that you
• 43:25
  haven't. I haven't had a chance to tell
• 43:26
  you this one yet either. It's on.
• 43:28
  I believe it's on December the 7th, so next Saturday I'm going
• 43:34
  to it. It's here local, it's here in
• 43:36
  Baton Rouge. It's a guy cooking with Joni.
• 43:39
  Love this dude. He's another content creator
• 43:42
  coming up making cooking videos and stuff like that.
• 43:45
  We haven't had the opportunity to interview him yet, but he's a
• 43:48
  fan of the show he watches. He's commented in some of our
• 43:52
  stuff and also looking forward to hooking up with him.
• 43:56
  And there's going to be some other other folks there as well.
• 43:59
  So part of we're in the middle of this show, part of 2025, and
• 44:06
  our strategy and what we're going to be doing is you guys
• 44:09
  are going to be seeing a lot more interviews that type of
• 44:12
  stuff coming not necessarily from a tailgate, but maybe from
• 44:16
  a social media event with all of these interesting people who are
• 44:20
  really fun to follow on social media.
• 44:22
  So I think it's going to be a great opportunity for us to
• 44:25
  grow. No, absolutely, dude.
• 44:28
  That's that's that's cool news. Yeah, you're getting all kind of
• 44:30
  good stuff, starting to fill the pipeline up, give us some
• 44:33
  opportunity to go out there. I know there's a couple other
• 44:35
  things we've got set up and planned going in after the first
• 44:38
  of the year. I can't wait to be a part of and
• 44:41
  get up there. We got to get big Brad Johnson
• 44:43
  to break another world record. I say, Speaking of world
• 44:47
  records, I saw was it the other day of the ESPN and they were
• 44:52
  and who was it out there during the tailgate?
• 44:55
  They broke the record for the longest hot dog throw into a
• 44:59
  bun. Did you see that you.
• 45:01
  Know, I think that. I think I did see that.
• 45:04
  I think you may have shown me that, that yes, I know I did.
• 45:07
  Wasn't it like 118 feet or something?
• 45:10
  Crazy. Yeah.
• 45:10
  A heck of a throw. It was over 100 feet.
• 45:12
  I remember hearing that number too.
• 45:13
  Like, wow, that's thinking about that 90 foot tall.
• 45:14
  So I was like, that's a long way to throw a hot dog into a bun.
• 45:18
  And. But you know what's funny?
• 45:20
  They didn't mention it all, Guinness, they said there's a
• 45:23
  new world record. So now people are starting to
• 45:25
  catch on. I think to my point, that really
• 45:27
  just made me go, you know what? That's another place for Tig's
• 45:29
  Bits World of records to go out there.
• 45:32
  We're going to keep this train rolling.
• 45:33
  We got to get with big Brad Johnson and break the record,
• 45:36
  and we haven't announced it yet, have we?
• 45:38
  We'll wait. We'll wait to see exactly what
• 45:41
  it is we're going to break. It's official.
• 45:43
  It's officially unofficial. It is official.
• 45:45
  Yeah. We're going to.
• 45:46
  And we, I mean, could you have imagined at the beginning of the
• 45:50
  year, Blasey that and and I know that we will say this again
• 45:54
  throughout this month of December whenever we're doing
• 45:56
  recap stuffs. But I mean, we just casually
• 45:59
  converse with the Super Bowl winning quarterback now like
• 46:03
  anytime pretty much daily in a way on oh.
• 46:06
  Yeah, yeah, crazy it is. What a what a good dude.
• 46:09
  Man. It's a great guy.
• 46:11
  Seems like a great guy. He is truly a great guy.
• 46:15
  All right, so getting back to this, Speaking of Austin and him
• 46:19
  not coming to our tailgates, didn't hear from him today
• 46:22
  either, though he said he may join us tonight.
• 46:24
  I don't think he has the link. He may.
• 46:27
  If you're in the chat, I'll send it to you, Austin, if you want
• 46:30
  to come in. But my man had some.
• 46:35
  My man had some words for Austin here.
• 46:39
  Believe that this has happened, that you and I get to interact
• 46:43
  before my good friend, my good friend Mr. Austin Dennis has not
• 46:49
  made. It to this tailgate yet?
• 46:53
  And he has said he was coming. That'd be 3.
• 46:55
  Times this season and I've yet to see him.
• 46:57
  So I'm so honored that you actually came by unprovoked and
• 47:02
  unknown to actually where we were at but you beat Austin.
• 47:05
  Hey, look, he's just going to be used to being a second place.
• 47:11
  Get used to it, Austin. That's great.
• 47:15
  I love it, man. That guy's so, so cool.
• 47:18
  And we had a great conversation. Of course, as things usually
• 47:22
  are, the best of our conversation was once we quit
• 47:25
  recording and we really dove into stuff.
• 47:28
  I mean, I got got it. It was the best conversation I
• 47:31
  had that day, honestly. I mean, it was just like we got
• 47:34
  into some social media stuff and you know, just he gave me some
• 47:39
  helpful things just kind of sitting there talking.
• 47:42
  I was, I couldn't believe it because I saw him walk up and he
• 47:44
  wears those overalls and at one of the things was like, I know
• 47:48
  this isn't a gimmick. He's like, it's not a gimmick.
• 47:51
  You know, I mean, this is, I live in the Ozarks.
• 47:54
  We really do use rainwater and boil it and you know, do do this
• 47:58
  for different. Like that's how we live.
• 48:02
  That's how we were living and then my son started recording
• 48:05
  it. Hunter is his son's name, and
• 48:09
  here he is. He has almost 3,000,000
• 48:11
  followers. Wow.
• 48:12
  Does he really? Yeah.
• 48:14
  Wow. That's amazing.
• 48:16
  That's awesome. Yeah, That's cool.
• 48:18
  Well, you know, that awesome, dude.
• 48:19
  So cool. That also goes back, like you
• 48:21
  said, like, you know, that's not an act.
• 48:22
  That's, you know, you can you can't have a gimmick and still
• 48:25
  do well, but you can also be authentic and be yourself.
• 48:28
  And if it's compelling enough, like people want to see that,
• 48:30
  you know, like, whoa, hold on. This cat.
• 48:32
  Really. You know this is how it rolls.
• 48:34
  Yeah, yeah, He he's really good friends.
• 48:37
  He kept calling him Justin. But Kate Stale cracker, you
• 48:41
  know. Put it on a cracker.
• 48:42
  Dude, that guy, well, they're really good friends.
• 48:45
  They, I think Stale Cracker is going to be at this event of his
• 48:48
  too. He's at a bunch of events.
• 48:50
  Like I, I'm going to get in touch with Stale Cracker.
• 48:52
  We'll be at some of Stale Cracker stuff next year as well.
• 48:56
  Just just spilling all the beans out here.
• 48:58
  Live, we don't get to talk. Enough.
• 49:01
  Might as well let y'all hear it too.
• 49:02
  But yeah, so he's good friends with him and that's what we were
• 49:06
  talking about, the gimmick deal. And yes, he puts on a wig and
• 49:10
  he, he amps it up a little bit. But that's really that guy.
• 49:14
  That's what he was saying is that's really his personality.
• 49:17
  That's how he is. He just, you know, he amps it up
• 49:20
  a little bit. He just steps on the gas a
• 49:21
  little bit. No, I totally do it, Yeah.
• 49:23
  We do it, too. I'm fully guilty of like, camera
• 49:27
  rolls. I step on the gas a little bit
• 49:29
  sometimes, you know? Yeah.
• 49:31
  It's just you just turned up, just turned the volume up.
• 49:34
  It's not, not you. You just got the volume up.
• 49:36
  That's exactly right. That's it, that's exactly right.
• 49:40
  This is a good little video, Blasey, kind of summarizing, I
• 49:43
  think your experience that day with a good friend of ours, a
• 49:49
  good friend of mine here, Brandon, we'll.
• 49:52
  Let you we got briskets and all going over here, which is great,
• 49:56
  but dude, there's nothing like like this action.
• 49:59
  You know, I'm smelling these gumbo's and it's just, that is
• 50:04
  heaven, folks. It, it really is.
• 50:06
  I mean, I'm an Alabama boy, but you don't think I fell in love
• 50:08
  with Cajun cooking a long time ago?
• 50:11
  Why bees to go with it? Oh.
• 50:13
  My God, why bees the pasta lie. Oh so.
• 50:15
  Good. Got the pasta lie.
• 50:18
  I think you introduced me to pasta lie.
• 50:19
  Years and years ago and. What do we got going here, Sir?
• 50:23
  What's all this action? Pasta lie?
• 50:24
  That's the gravy. Gosh, the news a little while
• 50:27
  once the dog gets ready. Oh wow, wow, God, this looks so
• 50:32
  good. And and everywhere you go, you
• 50:34
  go, it's not like this is the only people that's doing this
• 50:36
  and this is magic right here. But every tent you go to, dude,
• 50:39
  it's like this over and over and over and over again.
• 50:43
  It it's phenomenal. It's just, it's, there's nothing
• 50:45
  like it. And that's the truth.
• 50:48
  There's nothing like it, dude. It's so much.
• 50:50
  It's like, yeah, I mean, don't don't get me wrong.
• 50:53
  Like I've been to some cool tailgate to do some cool stuff,
• 50:56
  you know, and we cook some good food.
• 50:58
  But like, man, the level of that goodness being repeated over and
• 51:03
  over again, it's kind of it's just on another level.
• 51:06
  That's all you, you got to go to experience it.
• 51:08
  That's it. I mean, look in the background
• 51:10
  right here. You can see.
• 51:11
  So there's their box truck. That's that's what I wanted to
• 51:14
  to see so y'all can see that's the box truck back there and and
• 51:18
  you can go on that roof. There ain't anybody on the roof
• 51:21
  at that time. You see the umbrella.
• 51:23
  So that's our main hub of our tailgate.
• 51:25
  And then we're right there behind Brandon's head.
• 51:29
  You can see the tops of a little white tent of of gold tent.
• 51:34
  That's that's us all in that area.
• 51:37
  If you look to the right of blacy of this Jackass in a
• 51:40
  Hawaiian shirt, sailing Hawaiian shirt.
• 51:43
  That's my neighbor, Shane. And and the.
• 51:46
  Guy in the Gray shirt is my neighbor TJ.
• 51:49
  Sailing shirt. Of course he's got a sailing
• 51:51
  shirt on. Why wouldn't he?
• 51:54
  Why Whitney? So yeah, man.
• 51:57
  They got a sailboat in Pensacola, don't they?
• 51:59
  I've heard. They do yes, he's got a sailboat
• 52:02
  in Pensacola and and he'll tell you all about it and no, they're
• 52:06
  I want to go eventually at some point in time, hope to.
• 52:10
  They are great people. That is my neighbor that lives
• 52:14
  literally down the street. If you've seen the video of
• 52:16
  Blasey climbing a Vine to find his Y because there's AY in the
• 52:21
  vine. It was his house to connect to
• 52:25
  all of the little dots Placey, this was this.
• 52:29
  I think this was the first interview that we did of the day
• 52:34
  and and great, great interview with the guys from Iowa and
• 52:39
  South Dakota. It's a little lengthy, but let's
• 52:43
  hear it. Let her out.
• 52:45
  Baton Rouge, LA So happy to have you here.
• 52:48
  Welcome to the Cajun Tiger tailgate.
• 52:50
  What is your name and where are you from?
• 52:53
  My name is Gary Mceldowney and I live in northwest Iowa.
• 52:57
  Northwest Iowa. Wow.
• 52:58
  What's your name, Sir? I'm Brett Tavenall.
• 53:00
  I'm from Sioux Falls, SD. Sioux Falls, SD Wow, What?
• 53:06
  What brought y'all here? Why, Why are why are y'all here?
• 53:09
  We're part of a group that picks a place every year to go around
• 53:13
  the country to a game, and this is our 20th consecutive year.
• 53:17
  Our first year was Vince Young at Texas, at OAK, at Colorado,
• 53:22
  and last year was Oregon, next year's Clemson.
• 53:28
  We've been how many places we've been TEV, I guess pretty close
• 53:32
  to about 20. I guess I didn't make them all,
• 53:34
  but yeah, every year since a couple years after college we've
• 53:38
  gone somewhere if you can make it, come if you can't, we've had
• 53:43
  upwards of about 20 people and as few as about 5 some years so.
• 53:48
  Holy cow, that's that's fantastic.
• 53:51
  So everywhere you're going, name a few of the the other games
• 53:54
  that you've been to, I'm sure you go to big ones.
• 53:56
  And then how? When did you circle this one to
• 54:00
  come to here? Sure.
• 54:01
  Well, we, we usually take a big show.
• 54:04
  We, we are the traveling fun show tailgating All Stars.
• 54:07
  So we had an RV, we pulled a trailer, we made jambalaya, we
• 54:11
  did my Rocky Mountain oysters. We had a theme every year.
• 54:14
  And we would. Usually just welcome anyone and
• 54:17
  everyone into our tailgate. The group ages anywhere from 67
• 54:22
  down to I suppose there Nobody. Nobody's in their 30s anymore.
• 54:26
  Nope Nope. I'm thinking about maybe
• 54:28
  bringing my kid next year. I know he's going to love it.
• 54:30
  Clemson. Clemson's next year.
• 54:33
  We we which is democracy. I usually put out about 5
• 54:37
  options and we vote and the majority wins.
• 54:40
  So we are here because this is this is supposed to be the best
• 54:43
  place period to be. So we're here and we wanted it
• 54:46
  to be a night game. So we're thankful for that.
• 54:48
  We've been to, we drove a lot of games in the Midwest, Wisconsin,
• 54:51
  Iowa, Iowa State, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Colorado, Colorado
• 54:57
  State, Air Force, Kansas State, Nebraska, Tennessee, Arkansas,
• 55:02
  Okie State, Oklahoma. We've been a lot of places.
• 55:06
  Wow, that's that is a ton of places so.
• 55:09
  I think, I mean, this is just my opinion.
• 55:12
  I do believe you're going to have a magical experience no
• 55:16
  matter the outcome tonight. This campus is bumping early.
• 55:20
  Like yeah. Like, yeah.
• 55:24
  Yeah. And it will.
• 55:25
  I think that was it like 1030, man.
• 55:28
  I think game day was still going early.
• 55:31
  Yeah, So cool. It's so cool that the people
• 55:35
  that that we run across that come from from all around.
• 55:39
  I mean, just you saw it that day.
• 55:43
  Yeah. Vanderbilt.
• 55:45
  The Vanderbilt game, not as much.
• 55:47
  I mean, I'm going to be honest with you, the Vanderbilt game,
• 55:50
  Tailgate. And you saw in that video with
• 55:52
  Cooking with Cajun, that was like that video.
• 55:55
  Was it like 11/11/30? No, it was like noon.
• 55:59
  That was like noon to the bandy game.
• 56:02
  The temperature had been brought way down to say the.
• 56:07
  I kind of expected it to. One of the biggest reasons Duck
• 56:10
  seasons open in Louisiana, people.
• 56:13
  Tigers are not in the playoffs. Yeah, contending for the SEC we
• 56:19
  go in duck hunting. I mean, that's where some of my
• 56:21
  friends have not been coming to games because of that.
• 56:23
  I get it. But ultimately still a great,
• 56:26
  great crowd at the at the Vanderbilt game.
• 56:28
  The Tigers played well in a in a, in a good in a good game, a
• 56:32
  great a great night but didn't get a ton of content from Tales
• 56:37
  from the tailgate. I just enjoyed the tailgate.
• 56:39
  I got a couple videos We've got another one coming up here in in
• 56:43
  just a second from it, but I want to bring up this one.
• 56:48
  This video is includes Darren and his son-in-law Joe, who is
• 56:55
  he who was sponsoring that tailgate.
• 56:59
  He has a a State Farm place over in Eunice and we didn't get into
• 57:06
  all that because of what I've there's more to come from Joe
• 57:10
  whenever more videos get released from this, but but I
• 57:15
  found I found this to be really a a fitting way to start to tie
• 57:19
  this whole deal together of what we do at the Cajun Tiger
• 57:23
  Tailgate and and I'll let Darren explain.
• 57:27
  Not the man behind the name Tiggs.
• 57:30
  This is him all right, Tiggs. Let's hear it, Let's hear it.
• 57:34
  What do you think about the Tigers versus the Tide, brother?
• 57:37
  I'm going to tell you right now this number one, an electric
• 57:42
  atmosphere. I mean, this is incredible.
• 57:46
  Another amazing Cajun Tiger tailgate, Darren probably, some
• 57:51
  would say maybe the best. Ever.
• 57:55
  I think that it's going to be debatable.
• 57:59
  It will be if we get the post game tailgate.
• 58:03
  It's there. It's there.
• 58:07
  Sam Tumanero, brother of Joseph Tumanero.
• 58:10
  I'm going to ask the man behind it all, Cajun Tiger tailgating.
• 58:14
  Mr. Darren, you, you put a lot of heart and soul into this.
• 58:18
  What is your why? Why?
• 58:19
  Why do you do this? What what is it?
• 58:21
  When did you get into this? Like, what is it?
• 58:24
  So I have a love for LSU. I have a love for football.
• 58:29
  I have a love for victory, have a love for beer.
• 58:33
  So they all. Work again.
• 58:36
  Some. Would call that the Holy
• 58:37
  Trinity. Of college football.
• 58:39
  Well, I don't want to be sacrilegious.
• 58:41
  But. I would agree.
• 58:46
  My boy. My boy, like I just dropped in.
• 58:51
  I love beer there at the end, you know?
• 58:53
  That's so good. That's great.
• 58:55
  He's a cool cat man. He he's the best man.
• 58:57
  He is a he is a professional to say the least.
• 59:01
  And if it wasn't for Darren, I mean, this whole ship doesn't
• 59:05
  run. I, I always say my tailgate.
• 59:09
  It ain't my tailgate. I don't do anything.
• 59:13
  I don't do a thing. When you smoke some briskets,
• 59:17
  Yeah, I do that occasionally. I don't do a lot to set up.
• 59:21
  They even hung our they even hung our banner for us.
• 59:24
  They they did it. They still have the banner.
• 59:26
  I don't know if it was hanging for bandy.
• 59:28
  I didn't notice. Isn't that terrible?
• 59:30
  It better be hanging for Oklahoma this weekend.
• 59:34
  Anybody listening to this that's at the tailgate?
• 59:37
  I'll be there too. I will be back going to, we'll
• 59:40
  get, we'll get into Thanksgiving here in a second, but going to
• 59:43
  North Louisiana, turning right back around on Friday and coming
• 59:46
  back for the game and then turn it right back around and going
• 59:48
  back up there on Monday. Oh, for work.
• 59:51
  Bam bam bam. Bam bam bam.
• 59:53
  Such is life. I can't miss the last home game
• 59:56
  and it's Oklahoma. So yeah.
• 59:59
  But this one, we're going to close some of these little
• 1:00:03
  videos. That's thirteen of them.
• 1:00:06
  And I want you guys to vote on what are y'all think?
• 1:00:09
  Let us know of these that you've seen, which one you thought was
• 1:00:12
  the best, which one maybe has an opportunity to go viral?
• 1:00:16
  Which one you think I should chop up?
• 1:00:18
  And maybe add a little bit of flair too because there's some
• 1:00:21
  candidates. And all of these, I kind of just
• 1:00:24
  want some feedback, so I'll dive deeper into these here in the
• 1:00:28
  next couple of weeks and and chop them up a little bit more,
• 1:00:32
  fix the color in them because the color looked terrible.
• 1:00:35
  Having to learn that with the HDR deal with the new iPhone
• 1:00:40
  Blacy, it's thrown a new key into the editing process.
• 1:00:43
  That's part of the problem. We'll get there though, man.
• 1:00:47
  We'll get there with this. Speaking of new things and
• 1:00:51
  things coming in 2025, you have no idea about this because this
• 1:00:55
  interview took place this past weekend at the Vanderbilt game.
• 1:01:00
  A guy named Kelton explains what is going to happen in 2025.
• 1:01:07
  It sounds like a lot of fun, and I think you're going to see why
• 1:01:11
  we're going to want to be a part of.
• 1:01:13
  This I'm out here meeting folks out here on the grounds of LSU.
• 1:01:18
  You know, this is our culture here in Baton Rouge, Tiger
• 1:01:20
  tailgate. This is the world that we live
• 1:01:22
  in. We support our Tigers.
• 1:01:24
  We've got a number of people out here, the faithful for every LSU
• 1:01:28
  Tiger football game, whether it's an SEC opponent or a non
• 1:01:31
  conference opponent. And what I want to do, because I
• 1:01:35
  love my community, I love my Tiger fans, I love my LSU
• 1:01:39
  Tigers. What I want to do is I want to
• 1:01:41
  build this community, all right, by giving more light, giving
• 1:01:46
  more eyes to our tailgate community.
• 1:01:49
  And what I'm trying to do in effect, is to promote Tiger
• 1:01:54
  tailgating. So I'm putting on a taste of
• 1:01:57
  Tiger tailgate competition for the 2025 football season.
• 1:02:01
  So anybody and everybody out there that think you have a
• 1:02:04
  great location, you have a great environment for Tiger
• 1:02:07
  tailgating, you have the best food you want to get on this for
• 1:02:11
  the 2025 football season. Oh yeah, they definitely do.
• 1:02:15
  They definitely do. Will you be out next week
• 1:02:19
  whenever we play Oklahoma? Continuing your journey?
• 1:02:22
  Yes, it's a good question. Actually.
• 1:02:24
  My plan is to come out here as I've done today and for the last
• 1:02:28
  few home games, get out and walk around, meet folks, All right?
• 1:02:32
  This is how he and I met today, Face to face, build, you know,
• 1:02:37
  camaraderie, established rapport.
• 1:02:39
  You got to get out there and do it.
• 1:02:41
  If you want anything to happen, I don't want to depend on other
• 1:02:43
  people to do it for me. I want to know people.
• 1:02:45
  I want them to know who I am, what I'm about.
• 1:02:48
  And so that's what I'm going to do.
• 1:02:49
  I'm going to come out here for the Oklahoma game, walk around
• 1:02:51
  for the Alabama game. I put in about 250,000 steps
• 1:02:55
  tasting, tasting everything under the sun here at the
• 1:02:58
  tailgates. Want people to know who I am, be
• 1:03:00
  able to see my face and say, hey, that's Kelton, man.
• 1:03:03
  He's going to be doing the competition next year.
• 1:03:05
  But I'm going to have my clipboard walking around,
• 1:03:08
  getting people to sign up. It's free, no cost.
• 1:03:11
  All right? I want to make it fun.
• 1:03:13
  It's all about the people, all about the tailgate.
• 1:03:16
  We're going to have a first, second or third, you know,
• 1:03:18
  place, prize, some giveaways. I welcome sponsors.
• 1:03:23
  I'm going to have a website, social media website.
• 1:03:26
  I'm going to, you know, promote businesses, corporations.
• 1:03:30
  We going to do this doggone thing.
• 1:03:31
  I want it to get bigger and bigger every year.
• 1:03:33
  I want this to be something that really sticks, that people enjoy
• 1:03:37
  doing. And that's something that just
• 1:03:38
  fizzles out and nobody wants to keep up, right?
• 1:03:41
  So that's the plan, that's the goal, that's the intent.
• 1:03:45
  That's going to be awesome it. Oh, that's cool.
• 1:03:47
  Heck yeah. Yeah, that's awesome.
• 1:03:50
  He's he he sent me. I've been texting him some and I
• 1:03:53
  told him yesterday he's like, hey man, we that video up and
• 1:03:57
  I'm like, man, I want it up. I want it up now.
• 1:04:00
  I promise you. I didn't want to tell him I was.
• 1:04:04
  I knew that we were going to do this show or I was at least
• 1:04:07
  planning on doing this because I have all this footage.
• 1:04:11
  We haven't been able to get it out.
• 1:04:12
  This is the best way for us to do this.
• 1:04:14
  At least it's all out now and it's been seen not done with it
• 1:04:19
  by any means, but I, I, we, we needed to get this stuff out.
• 1:04:23
  But but I was able to make it work, make it get out.
• 1:04:27
  And I told him today, but we've been talking and he's like, hey
• 1:04:31
  dude, do you think you know anybody who's got a golf cart
• 1:04:35
  out there? I was like, brother, I like the
• 1:04:38
  way you are thinking. I do not.
• 1:04:41
  This has been a stationary deal for me this year.
• 1:04:44
  I think next year will broaden the horizons a little bit.
• 1:04:48
  But but like he says, I've done that thing.
• 1:04:50
  We used to call it a lerp, a long range reconnaissance
• 1:04:55
  mission or whatever they would call it and and we would go from
• 1:05:00
  tell it's an all day deal if it's over 80° that that's
• 1:05:04
  becomes a miserable deal, especially if you're on camera
• 1:05:08
  and you're me who just sweats like a whore in church.
• 1:05:11
  We're going to have issues with this, but we're going to, we're
• 1:05:15
  going to work through it. We're going to work through it.
• 1:05:18
  Yeah. But yeah, I'm looking.
• 1:05:20
  Forward to money, huh? That's it.
• 1:05:22
  Yeah, that would be it. That's it.
• 1:05:25
  But I think I think that that one that that'll be something
• 1:05:30
  that's going to be fun. We're going to hop on board with
• 1:05:32
  him as he gets his. He's working on getting his
• 1:05:35
  Facebook page and working on getting that stuff up.
• 1:05:39
  He doesn't have everything ready quite yet because he's kind of
• 1:05:41
  just pre planning for 2025 and which is perfect.
• 1:05:48
  I think he's being smart about. It being smart, go ahead and
• 1:05:51
  plant the seeds out there. Go ahead and build this thing up
• 1:05:54
  well in advance and some Showtime next year he'll be
• 1:05:58
  ready to roll. Everybody look forward to yeah.
• 1:06:01
  Look totally look forward to. Seeing what's going.
• 1:06:03
  To what's going to come from that so that's everybody that
• 1:06:07
  that that we have dealt with or we've seen not not everybody,
• 1:06:12
  but that's everybody that I have for us tonight with tales from
• 1:06:15
  the tailgate catching up from the month November basically is
• 1:06:19
  what what that that. Is.
• 1:06:22
  It is caught up. We'll be out there this weekend
• 1:06:24
  for the Oklahoma game. Going to try to capture a little
• 1:06:27
  bit more content. If there's anything you guys can
• 1:06:31
  think of, let me know. Let us know in the chat tonight.
• 1:06:34
  Any questions you want me to ask?
• 1:06:36
  Some Okies that are coming down, I'm sure we're going to see
• 1:06:39
  several. The weather not going to be
• 1:06:43
  sweating this weekend. I'm not sure what the high is,
• 1:06:46
  but everybody keeps talking about, yeah, it's going to be
• 1:06:49
  below 60, I do believe. OK, cold.
• 1:06:52
  That's good, that's good. That's that's non sweating
• 1:06:54
  weather right there. It it felt good for Vanderbilt,
• 1:06:57
  too. It's kind of chilly for
• 1:06:59
  Vanderbilt, so finally it cooled off.
• 1:07:01
  Not cool for Alabama. Man, it was so hot.
• 1:07:04
  It was a hot day. Oh Lord, it was.
• 1:07:07
  It was. It was real hot.
• 1:07:08
  What is? Going on Mark, what is up
• 1:07:11
  brother love Mark. Mark has hit us with yeah, Troy
• 1:07:14
  flag. Oh yeah.
• 1:07:17
  That's I love the Troy flag back there, though.
• 1:07:19
  That's that's that's new, huh? Well, it's temporary, so you
• 1:07:24
  want you want another story behind that Troy flag.
• 1:07:26
  So I've got another Troy flag here.
• 1:07:28
  I've got plenty of them, but I normally have different props
• 1:07:30
  here. But I was trying to do a teams
• 1:07:35
  meeting today and I was going to do it from out here because I
• 1:07:37
  had everything set up. I was going to lower my mic so
• 1:07:40
  you could see it and get really good audio, right?
• 1:07:42
  So anyway, get out here and get started.
• 1:07:44
  We got Jim Morrison's head up here.
• 1:07:46
  Well, I put in the virtual background, but Jim Morrison's
• 1:07:48
  head kept appearing. But it's like my head and his
• 1:07:52
  head right here together. And I was like, he liked his
• 1:07:54
  face, you know? So I was like, what am I going
• 1:07:56
  to do? I'm already set up for this.
• 1:07:57
  It's like 5 or 10 minutes away. So I just hung this Troy flag
• 1:08:00
  real fast so I can put my virtual background.
• 1:08:02
  So I let it kind of work as a backdrop, so that's why it's
• 1:08:05
  still sitting there. Editing clips, I'll put it on a
• 1:08:09
  auto reframe in Premiere Pro and it'll just it'll track you.
• 1:08:13
  It never wants to track you. It locks on Jim every time so I
• 1:08:16
  get it. For whatever reason, AI just
• 1:08:19
  wants to think that Jim Morrison is who the actual person is in
• 1:08:23
  the. Picture not who's.
• 1:08:25
  Not who's moving? If you probably go into some
• 1:08:27
  sort of a search, like what is that Google Lens thing or
• 1:08:31
  something, you know, and you search for certain things, it's
• 1:08:34
  like boom, Jim Morrison podcast. It's probably Tigs, but it's
• 1:08:37
  podcast everywhere, you know? Yeah, I guarantee it.
• 1:08:41
  I guarantee it. Mark says it.
• 1:08:42
  Tickets in Oklahoma going for $10 now on StubHub.
• 1:08:45
  I believe that because of the weather hunting Thanksgiving,
• 1:08:49
  we, I mean, it's just kind of a bad weekend.
• 1:08:51
  You're not going to have a completely full house. 2 teams
• 1:08:55
  that aren't really playing for much, Not really a whole lot of
• 1:08:57
  bowl positioning movement that could happen there.
• 1:09:00
  I get it. But I think it's still senior
• 1:09:02
  day at LSU. I think they want to finish
• 1:09:05
  strong. Will Nussberger, Nussmeyer,
• 1:09:08
  Nussburger. Will Nussmeyer GoPro.
• 1:09:11
  I do not believe he's going to GoPro.
• 1:09:13
  I think he'll be coming back and LSU is going to keep their team
• 1:09:16
  together for the most part. Of course, I'm sure you saw
• 1:09:19
  Blasey that that they lost out on the the Underwood Kid from
• 1:09:25
  Bryce Underwood from Michigan. $10 million, was it 9 or 10
• 1:09:29
  million bucks to go play is what I'm hearing.
• 1:09:31
  That's insanity. It's total insanity.
• 1:09:33
  I mean, I, I, I get it. Totally involved.
• 1:09:38
  The girlfriend of somebody rich. One of those rich dudes.
• 1:09:42
  Oh dude, the dude from. Oracle.
• 1:09:44
  Yeah, the dude from Oracle, Yeah.
• 1:09:46
  You know, yeah, I didn't realize they had all those people.
• 1:09:48
  I was looking. I think it was it, it was T Bob
• 1:09:51
  had posted something about that. I read the article that, wow, I
• 1:09:54
  did not know they had, you know, the Oracle guy out there.
• 1:09:57
  So yeah, that's that's big, big time money.
• 1:09:59
  It is, but I think in a way, I mean I I hate that we lost out
• 1:10:04
  on him, but at the end of the day, I think LSU didn't set a
• 1:10:10
  precedent. They weren't the 1st to they
• 1:10:13
  like, you know, 'cause I mean, maybe he wins the Heisman, maybe
• 1:10:16
  he comes in, they win a national championship, they win a
• 1:10:19
  Heisman. I don't think any quarterback is
• 1:10:22
  that good at just coming out of high school to really to really
• 1:10:27
  know, especially to make that kind of money.
• 1:10:29
  And if that's the way the league's going to go, that's
• 1:10:32
  going to turn a lot of people off.
• 1:10:33
  It turns me off. I don't care about college
• 1:10:36
  football like I have. If this is the route that we're
• 1:10:40
  going, it's just going to go to the highest bidder.
• 1:10:43
  Going. Legislate it somehow.
• 1:10:45
  You got to you got to put some controls in there.
• 1:10:48
  They've got to be, I mean, even the NFL, you know what I mean,
• 1:10:50
  has salary caps and stuff that you got to deal with.
• 1:10:52
  You can't just have unlimited. This is like Major League
• 1:10:55
  Baseball years ago when you know what I mean?
• 1:10:57
  Like, you know, the Yankees just ridiculously just outpacing
• 1:11:01
  everybody. It's, you know, I don't know,
• 1:11:03
  man. It's going to get, it's going to
• 1:11:05
  keep going until somebody regulates it, though.
• 1:11:06
  It's nothing's going to stop it and it's going to get there
• 1:11:08
  quick. I mean, we're we're probably
• 1:11:10
  another probably about next season.
• 1:11:12
  That story will be told over and over and over again of just
• 1:11:15
  people buying players at a high level.
• 1:11:18
  I mean, they're already doing it, but I think it's just going
• 1:11:20
  to be asinine craziness, you know?
• 1:11:23
  I mean, Brian Kelly virtually said this week for LSU.
• 1:11:28
  Like, look, we're under cap, if you will, in a sense, and we're
• 1:11:33
  about money. All right, let's go.
• 1:11:37
  But I mean, that's the era that we're in.
• 1:11:40
  And it's just, you know, I mean, was money being spent five years
• 1:11:44
  ago? Yes.
• 1:11:46
  Was the same amount of money being spent?
• 1:11:48
  I doubt it, but maybe. But it was all like under the
• 1:11:52
  table. Let's say you hit it better.
• 1:11:54
  I kind of think, I kind of think it was better that way, you
• 1:11:57
  know? Yeah, I don't know.
• 1:12:00
  I don't know either. I don't.
• 1:12:02
  Know but but the sports definitely definitely different
• 1:12:07
  the. Frustrating part that I don't
• 1:12:10
  like is, is when you see a football player, especially like
• 1:12:14
  a starter with a lot of tackles at, you know, at a school and
• 1:12:17
  suddenly he decides he's going to sit out the rest of the year
• 1:12:20
  and enter the portal. And it's like, golly, man, he's
• 1:12:23
  just saving his body. Just like the rest of the season
• 1:12:26
  is now what a bowl game every once in a while used to be to a
• 1:12:28
  player. I'm going to sit out the bowl
• 1:12:29
  game so I don't get hurt for my draft stock.
• 1:12:32
  You know I'm going to the NFL. No, I'm not even going to the
• 1:12:34
  NFL. I'm going to another college
• 1:12:35
  team. I'm going to sit out the back
• 1:12:36
  half of the year to stay healthy and put myself on the market and
• 1:12:39
  make myself most marketable. Wow, dude, wild stuff.
• 1:12:42
  Wow, so I don't. Like it.
• 1:12:44
  I don't like it all. It's a bad precedent.
• 1:12:46
  It's just setting the tone for. It's just really going to
• 1:12:49
  diminish football. It's just ruining the product is
• 1:12:53
  what's happening, ruining the best, purest form of football,
• 1:12:56
  which is college? Football was, that's what made
• 1:12:58
  it so great, man. It was just it was it was
• 1:13:01
  football much purest form. And now it's not.
• 1:13:03
  And it's so different. I mean, I don't know.
• 1:13:06
  I just I hope something can save it.
• 1:13:08
  I thought Nick Saban when he retired, not like, you know,
• 1:13:10
  he's, but he made some statements in there that he's
• 1:13:12
  his mission was going to be that.
• 1:13:13
  But I think his mission right now is to do as many commercials
• 1:13:15
  and do as much college game day, make as much money as he can
• 1:13:18
  right there. Right now.
• 1:13:19
  He's probably making 30 million a year.
• 1:13:21
  So yeah, he's kind of busy now. I think so.
• 1:13:23
  He's going to get. He's going to get sucked into
• 1:13:26
  that whole media cloud. I think it's just easy.
• 1:13:28
  That's why they were trying to get him like it's almost hush,
• 1:13:33
  ESPN. We paid way too much money for
• 1:13:35
  this. We like we got the system like
• 1:13:38
  we need it. This is the system you.
• 1:13:40
  Haven't heard talk about it much lately.
• 1:13:42
  Remember it was used to be all he talked about, his frustration
• 1:13:45
  with it. I mean, he, he didn't bring it
• 1:13:47
  up anymore. Well, maybe we'll hear from him
• 1:13:49
  a little bit in the offseason, hopefully.
• 1:13:52
  Hopefully so so. You're going to hear from people
• 1:13:54
  and you're going to see other schools that start to do that.
• 1:13:57
  LSU may be one of them. I don't know.
• 1:13:59
  You're just going to see some insane offers from crazy stuff.
• 1:14:03
  Kids are getting paid great for them, great for their families.
• 1:14:06
  But, and I understand, I mean, I think Bryce Underwood would be a
• 1:14:10
  fool if he was, if what they said was that LSU was going to
• 1:14:14
  pay him like $1.72 million, which was insane to begin with.
• 1:14:20
  You know that that jump from 2,000,000 to 11:50 and you're 20
• 1:14:25
  minutes from home. Oh, everything changes, Yeah.
• 1:14:29
  I mean, I get it that that's a, that's a big difference.
• 1:14:32
  If it was 1.75 million to like 2.8, then I'd have a problem
• 1:14:37
  with it. But with that big of a a
• 1:14:39
  difference, good luck. You're not going to get.
• 1:14:41
  What you pay? For but good on the kid he.
• 1:14:45
  Yeah, you know what, no matter what, in this whole money era,
• 1:14:49
  like I I've got an idea. I I think that you know, for my
• 1:14:55
  Troy Trojans at Troy University, we should reach out to Elon Musk
• 1:14:59
  and let's just let's just roll with it because the power T
• 1:15:01
  looks so much like the Tesla T already.
• 1:15:04
  Let's just change it propose we rename Troy University, Tesla
• 1:15:08
  university. I'm fine with it, you know what
• 1:15:09
  I mean and let Elon bring his money in there.
• 1:15:12
  Then we can compete. Dude, Tesla just kicking ass in
• 1:15:15
  college football. You know, we the next thing you
• 1:15:17
  know, we bring in Nick Saban to coach Tesla right there in Troy.
• 1:15:22
  The Tesla Trojans, the Tesla Trojans, baby, I'm in.
• 1:15:25
  All right, Elon, if you're out there and you're listening, we
• 1:15:27
  would, I think, and I think Doctor Hawkins on his last year
• 1:15:31
  in I believe he would have no problem calling him Tesla
• 1:15:34
  University. Yeah, the Tesla Trojans this.
• 1:15:37
  May be a brilliant ploy to get to get him to get Elon to Troy
• 1:15:42
  thing, yes. Yeah, they probably renamed the
• 1:15:45
  whole town after. They would name the whole town.
• 1:15:47
  I I know him. Yeah, I know the I know the
• 1:15:49
  mayor. I went to college with him.
• 1:15:51
  Yeah. John.
• 1:15:51
  So yeah, I. Don't think anybody have a
• 1:15:53
  problem with it. Let's rock'n'roll, let's do it.
• 1:15:57
  Let's do it. Hey, I do want to mention one
• 1:15:59
  thing. I hadn't mentioned this yet, but
• 1:16:01
  tell a quick story of AI mean this is David versus Goliath
• 1:16:06
  type stuff. This is, I mean really
• 1:16:08
  equivalent to the like the 1980 Miracle on Ice type event that
• 1:16:14
  took place a couple of Saturday nights ago in Freeport, FL Here
• 1:16:19
  in Hammock Bay. They had a fire truck pull,
• 1:16:23
  which is had a fire truck out in front of Props Brewery, you
• 1:16:27
  know, with a big rope tied to it.
• 1:16:29
  Had it at a position start .50 feet was the length to pull it.
• 1:16:33
  Well, I've been recruited to get on this team to pull a fire
• 1:16:35
  truck. OK, sounds good.
• 1:16:37
  A couple weeks ago someone asked me.
• 1:16:38
  Sure, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in.
• 1:16:40
  Well, dude, I pull up to this thing.
• 1:16:42
  First of all, there's not a parking spot anywhere.
• 1:16:44
  Like people grass sides of the road.
• 1:16:46
  I was like, whoa, this is a way bigger deal than I thought it
• 1:16:48
  was going to be. Like, you know, like, 'cause
• 1:16:50
  it's kind of us in a bunch of scrubs.
• 1:16:52
  I mean, outside of like two big guys.
• 1:16:55
  We had like, it's all my size would be big.
• 1:16:59
  We had GM Joe in there. You know, we had big Garrett
• 1:17:02
  now, right? He's 69.
• 1:17:03
  He's a big boy. Had him an anchor.
• 1:17:05
  But dude, at the end of the day, we're a scrub team.
• 1:17:07
  You know, Grant and Wesley does beer myself, Dustin, try to
• 1:17:14
  think who all. And then we had Garrett's wife.
• 1:17:17
  She was the front puller on this whole deal.
• 1:17:19
  Like so we had a female in there too.
• 1:17:21
  So we got there and there was a, there was 2 SWAT teams there.
• 1:17:25
  There was a football team, baseball team, you know, from
• 1:17:29
  high school. And then they had, oh, then you
• 1:17:32
  had actually Ben Tobar fitness had one, maybe two teams as well
• 1:17:37
  in there. Monsters.
• 1:17:39
  I mean, I was like, guys, we're going to get embarrassed.
• 1:17:41
  You know what I mean? Like I was just like, I, I went
• 1:17:44
  inside and had a beer. Like they're like, hey, we got
• 1:17:45
  to be at the starting point in the stretch.
• 1:17:47
  I'm like, dude, I'm gonna have a beer.
• 1:17:48
  Like this is we're not going to do, we're not even going to
• 1:17:50
  play, you know, like we're going to be hopefully we don't finish
• 1:17:53
  last somehow. There's ten teams, dude, there's
• 1:17:55
  a firefighter team there, you know, fire squad, like we're
• 1:17:59
  screwed. So we're 5th to go.
• 1:18:01
  Now what we did do, we came up with a strategy.
• 1:18:03
  We're like, OK, got an idea, let's do this.
• 1:18:06
  Let's I got on YouTube, you know, and watch some people
• 1:18:09
  pull. We're going to start pulling
• 1:18:11
  like tug of war backwards. And then soon as we get the
• 1:18:14
  brake on it and we get some momentum, we're going to say
• 1:18:17
  turn and we're going to turn and we're going to take off running
• 1:18:20
  in a running with the rope, you know what I mean?
• 1:18:22
  So now we're driving the legs forward.
• 1:18:24
  And then Grant had an idea just before we say, hey, let's put
• 1:18:27
  smallest person at the front because that rope is hooked to
• 1:18:29
  the bottom of the bumper and put the barger purse in the back.
• 1:18:33
  We're all going to put Garrett back there, but everybody else,
• 1:18:35
  let's stagger that rope out so it's set up at a nice angle
• 1:18:38
  versus kind of up and down, you know, throughout.
• 1:18:40
  So we did that dude, we took off and we when that truck started
• 1:18:46
  moving, I thought it would take a few seconds before we would
• 1:18:49
  turn. We were literally probably one 1
• 1:18:51
  1/2 seconds in and that truck was rolling.
• 1:18:54
  I mean, it was flying, moving, like gone.
• 1:18:56
  So I turned and we turned at one time and we took off running.
• 1:19:00
  Dude, Wesley and Grant fell down in front of me and I, we just
• 1:19:04
  kept stepping on them. Grant just held on to the rope.
• 1:19:07
  I mean, this was right towards the finish line.
• 1:19:09
  And dude, we get through there and dude, we finish with the
• 1:19:11
  only team to finish under 10 seconds at 9.81 seconds.
• 1:19:15
  The next team was 11 seconds and 12 seconds.
• 1:19:18
  Dude, we smoked them all and we won the trophy.
• 1:19:21
  It's unbelievable. Yeah, there's a giant trophy
• 1:19:24
  that we got to take on here. Yeah, that's going to.
• 1:19:27
  Let me blow you. Let me blow this up here, Blaze.
• 1:19:30
  I see this trophy. I don't know how to make it
• 1:19:33
  there. There we go.
• 1:19:34
  There we go. There we go, the other trophy
• 1:19:36
  and then let's see, hold on. You got that little video.
• 1:19:40
  Oh, I do have that video. Let's go back to.
• 1:19:42
  That play that little video. Here we go.
• 1:19:44
  This is a quick video. Oh, hold on, hold on.
• 1:19:53
  Let me turn it up. Had it turned down.
• 1:20:01
  So we broke right there. The dude, we were gone.
• 1:20:04
  Oh yeah, we took the turn. That truck's moving.
• 1:20:09
  I'll watch this one more time. Yeah, I didn't realize.
• 1:20:14
  So that man. That's unbelievable.
• 1:20:17
  That's my girl, Shelby. Yeah, that's Shelby on the front
• 1:20:20
  there. Yeah, so good.
• 1:20:22
  That's awesome. So this trophy is going to sit
• 1:20:24
  now, Joe and Beth, GM Joe from Props.
• 1:20:28
  Joe and Beth are opening up the old Ore house at here at the
• 1:20:30
  Marina restaurant, pub and Bar. So they're going to be reopening
• 1:20:34
  that soft opening Saturday, this Saturday.
• 1:20:38
  But they're going to put the trophy out there.
• 1:20:39
  We're going to set it on a shelf.
• 1:20:41
  We're going to put a little thing on their QR code and
• 1:20:45
  probably from what we just did right there a little short, you
• 1:20:47
  can actually see the story. We're going to put like little
• 1:20:49
  red velvet ropes around it, some up lighting on this trophy
• 1:20:51
  because even Joe is he's a firefighter.
• 1:20:54
  He's a retired firefighter. He's standing firefighter
• 1:20:56
  challenge and stuff. He's I cannot believe our team
• 1:20:58
  pulled that rope, but pulled that truck that.
• 1:21:00
  Fast. No, no, I can't either.
• 1:21:02
  I can't either. It's a fantastic job.
• 1:21:05
  It's a fun. Go ahead and jot you down a
• 1:21:08
  little note, Blasey. One hour, 16 minutes.
• 1:21:11
  That's about when we started talking.
• 1:21:13
  About that, OK. So you'll know where to scan and
• 1:21:18
  chop it up if I don't get to it before I roll out of town.
• 1:21:21
  Sure. And fast.
• 1:21:22
  Speaking of, let's talk a little bit about this start to kind of
• 1:21:26
  wrap our show up a little bit. What's going on, fat pig?
• 1:21:29
  Good to see you, Sir. Good to see you fat pig in the
• 1:21:32
  house. Let's talk a little bit about
• 1:21:35
  Thanksgiving. I mean, we've got to talk about
• 1:21:37
  some foods briefly. I'm getting hungry.
• 1:21:40
  Number one, I haven't eaten yet and that's OK.
• 1:21:45
  What is your, what is your favorite 3?
• 1:21:49
  Let's go with three things. What's your favorite 3 foods to
• 1:21:53
  eat tomorrow on Thanksgiving Day?
• 1:21:57
  Going away, hands down, number one year over year over year
• 1:22:02
  champion. It's my mom's dressing.
• 1:22:03
  It might be the best ever and that giblet giblet, whatever we
• 1:22:07
  decide to call it, you know, gravy on top of it.
• 1:22:10
  Oh my gosh, that dressing just it's far superior to everything.
• 1:22:14
  I mean, obviously coming in there too, my grandmother, she's
• 1:22:19
  no longer with us. She used to make this coconut
• 1:22:20
  cake and that was always something I look forward to.
• 1:22:23
  My mom knows how to make it, but I don't think she's making it
• 1:22:25
  this year. But that coconut cake was always
• 1:22:27
  just fresh ground coconut, so good.
• 1:22:30
  Like, so that's a dessert and then you know, everything else,
• 1:22:34
  I mean, obviously Turkey or ham or whatever, but everything else
• 1:22:38
  kind of a distant, I mean, deviled eggs.
• 1:22:40
  I'm always looking for those little guys scurrying around the
• 1:22:43
  kitchen, you know what I mean? Wherever they are, I'm eating
• 1:22:44
  nose throughout the day. That's more of a grey so you
• 1:22:47
  don't have to say the dressing coconut cake and then going into
• 1:22:52
  the deviled egg. I love the deviled egg.
• 1:22:56
  Absolutely love it. Number one, I mean, yes, it is.
• 1:23:01
  It's I don't know if I'll have, I doubt, Mandy, if you're
• 1:23:05
  watching this, I hope somebody makes deviled eggs tomorrow.
• 1:23:07
  It won't be me, but I would love to have some because if there's
• 1:23:11
  a tray of deviled eggs and I start noticing that, you know,
• 1:23:15
  they're not really moving. It's surprisingly they're not
• 1:23:18
  moving that fast. There's, there was like 24 of
• 1:23:20
  them. There's 16.
• 1:23:22
  It's been 2 hours. Oh, they're still hanging
• 1:23:25
  around. I'm about to eat 8 of them like
• 1:23:28
  I'm about to eat 8 of them. I'm going to get a plate.
• 1:23:31
  I'm going to start to mush them back together and make them
• 1:23:34
  whole eggs and eat them like that just.
• 1:23:36
  Like just keep. Giving it to me.
• 1:23:38
  Why would you not? Yeah, make whole eggs, but
• 1:23:43
  they're not my top. They're not my top three because
• 1:23:46
  they're not always there. They're not always at my
• 1:23:49
  Thanksgiving dinners that we have.
• 1:23:51
  But my number one is dressing. Same thing my mom.
• 1:23:55
  I'm looking so forward to tomorrow because mom has made
• 1:23:58
  her dressing. My dad helped her this year.
• 1:24:01
  She was Speaking of stuff for content.
• 1:24:04
  She was wanting me to help her make the dressing, record it so
• 1:24:10
  I would have it for my own, for myself to make her dressing.
• 1:24:14
  It is a labor of love, as you know, making the pons of
• 1:24:18
  cornbread and do it and making the chicken stock and all of the
• 1:24:24
  stuff that it takes to make that traditional Southern cornbread
• 1:24:28
  dressing is just it's time consuming, but.
• 1:24:32
  It's a highly involved cornbread and you know it's and you can
• 1:24:34
  tell when you eat it. It's different.
• 1:24:36
  Yes, you can. My mom uses, she doesn't use any
• 1:24:39
  of the cornmeal that you get from a store.
• 1:24:41
  She uses it from a place that grounds it themselves.
• 1:24:44
  So it's a little more coarse of a of a corn cornbread, which it
• 1:24:49
  shows. It's not like a clumpy thick
• 1:24:53
  like almost like. You know, like a Hoover dress.
• 1:24:55
  It looks like bread pud over here.
• 1:24:56
  Yeah, yeah. You know what I'm talking about.
• 1:24:59
  It's all like just sticky. It is not like that.
• 1:25:02
  It's little. It's fluffy or light or.
• 1:25:05
  Probably like your mom's, it goes through it and your fork,
• 1:25:07
  you can almost just kind of shake it apart.
• 1:25:09
  You can, yes. Yes, exactly what your mom says.
• 1:25:12
  I know. Exactly what you're saying.
• 1:25:14
  Yeah, it's a good old. Southern grain and that and that
• 1:25:17
  bigger grain keeps it from becoming these clump.
• 1:25:20
  That's exactly right. That's exactly right.
• 1:25:22
  Mom's a little nervous. She didn't have her tester me
• 1:25:25
  usually just to tell her it doesn't have enough salt or it
• 1:25:28
  needs a little more salt. Mom usually has no issues.
• 1:25:31
  She's very heavy-handed with the salt, so it's not going to be a
• 1:25:36
  problem. But I can't wait.
• 1:25:38
  I'm looking really, really looking forward to that.
• 1:25:40
  That's number one. I love a pecan pie or a sweet
• 1:25:45
  potato pie. You either one or pumpkin pie,
• 1:25:50
  either of the three. But if I've got to choose one,
• 1:25:52
  I'm hoping there's a pumpkin pie.
• 1:25:53
  I mean, I'm hoping there's a pecan pie.
• 1:25:56
  There love a good pecan pie. Forget about that.
• 1:25:58
  My mom, that's what my mom makes now.
• 1:26:00
  I don't know she made them this time or not, but she usually
• 1:26:02
  makes them and it's and it's it's really good too, because
• 1:26:04
  it's not overly sweet and it's kind of just a nice balance.
• 1:26:07
  You could eat more than one piece.
• 1:26:08
  You want to eat almost the whole thing.
• 1:26:10
  Yeah. I tell you what, I'm going to
• 1:26:12
  show you this. It's my friend.
• 1:26:14
  Hopefully y'all can see this. Phyllis, Phyllis Jansen.
• 1:26:18
  Jansen Butcher in your name. Phyllis.
• 1:26:21
  She and I went to school together and she owns this place
• 1:26:26
  called Crust and Crumble in Florine, Louisiana.
• 1:26:30
  And man, I was at the, when I was at the Free State Festival,
• 1:26:35
  she, she had pies, different pies, different, just different
• 1:26:40
  pastries and stuff like that, cinnamon rolls, stuff like that
• 1:26:43
  made. And I saw that pie and went, Oh
• 1:26:45
  my God, bought it. We destroyed it was just me,
• 1:26:49
  Tammy and Riley. And we ate half of that pie that
• 1:26:52
  night. It didn't make it to Baton
• 1:26:54
  Rouge. I like I was going to bring mom
• 1:26:55
  and dad a slice and you know, no, no, no.
• 1:26:59
  It was, you know how when you get a pecan pie that is cooked
• 1:27:03
  and it's it's not burned at all, but it's just roasted?
• 1:27:11
  Just. Slightly dark, but it's not
• 1:27:14
  burned like with the little pecan tops and maybe just the
• 1:27:17
  edge of the crust, but it's. I know what you.
• 1:27:20
  Mean, you know what I mean? Our power was a little.
• 1:27:22
  Crisp all of just perfect like that just enough to get a little
• 1:27:26
  bit of that roast dude. Oh yeah, all in on that, all in
• 1:27:30
  on that, but. But they. 3rd item this year,
• 1:27:35
  what I'm looking the most forward to, my buddy Shannon at
• 1:27:39
  Shannon's Butcher block is preparing the turkeys.
• 1:27:44
  So we're getting smoked Turkey, smoked Turkey from Shannon,
• 1:27:48
  getting two of them, two whole Turkey breasts.
• 1:27:51
  I don't know if they're going to come slice.
• 1:27:53
  Hopefully not. Hopefully we slice them.
• 1:27:55
  It doesn't matter. They're going to be
• 1:27:57
  unbelievable. He does some type of a honey
• 1:28:00
  deal on them and it's the best Turkey I've ever had, period,
• 1:28:06
  period. Yeah.
• 1:28:07
  So really pumped. I'm out this year.
• 1:28:10
  I'm not cooking anything. I'm usually I cook a fried
• 1:28:13
  Turkey, smoke a Turkey. Do something with the Turkey.
• 1:28:15
  Do. A side dish.
• 1:28:16
  Do something Tammy's making Mac and cheese and potatoes.
• 1:28:22
  I think mashed potatoes. Just, you know, some normal.
• 1:28:25
  Just some good. Sides and not the good Mac and
• 1:28:27
  cheese, just kind of a Velveeta Mac and cheese.
• 1:28:30
  I don't know if you've seen this on TikTok recently, but there's
• 1:28:34
  some lady teeny tiny, I don't know, but Mac and cheese is
• 1:28:39
  going viral on TikTok over the last two weeks.
• 1:28:41
  Like it's just as crazy. It's all the videos that I've
• 1:28:44
  been seeing my daughter telling me the same thing and it's all
• 1:28:48
  because it's kind of like the chicken salad now.
• 1:28:51
  Right now it's the Mac and cheese and it's these types of
• 1:28:55
  noodles that she uses and all this.
• 1:28:57
  She just makes a Roux. It's like Michelle's.
• 1:29:00
  It's like Michelle's Mac and cheese, which is still the best
• 1:29:03
  I've ever had in my life. Got her recipe and I make it
• 1:29:07
  very similarly to Michelle's, but I smoke it now.
• 1:29:11
  But anyhow, I'm not doing all that.
• 1:29:14
  Tammy's going. Like Back Beach BBQ does with
• 1:29:16
  their big trays of delicious flowy Mac and cheese.
• 1:29:19
  Yeah, yeah, that's quite a role, man.
• 1:29:21
  It sounds good too, right now thinking about that Mac.
• 1:29:24
  Yeah, you just built that Mac and cheese up.
• 1:29:26
  Started off just like it's a nice side and going to move on.
• 1:29:28
  Now I'm thinking about some good Mac.
• 1:29:31
  And all of it. I.
• 1:29:32
  Want all of it, but I'm saving it all for about 16 hours from
• 1:29:38
  now roughly. Yeah, I'm not smoking that
• 1:29:40
  Turkey breast and obviously I'm going to do that in the morning
• 1:29:42
  and wrap it and I got that little tight cooler.
• 1:29:44
  I'm on, you know, let it hang out with itself inside of a
• 1:29:47
  towel, inside of that little fluffy type cooler.
• 1:29:50
  I carry stuff. It'll be perfect when I get
• 1:29:52
  there, you know. And dude, I tell you something
• 1:29:55
  that blew my mind. I don't know, the whole Turkey
• 1:29:57
  experience, like when you go buy turkeys and you're looking, I
• 1:29:59
  was looking tonight because I was like, I wanted Turkey breast
• 1:30:02
  and was looking at this dude. Publix had a whole young turkeys
• 1:30:06
  and it's dude is a pretty big turkeys, a whole young Turkey.
• 1:30:10
  They were like $4.63 for the whole thing.
• 1:30:12
  Like, I don't even understand. However, I thought it was
• 1:30:14
  misprint, You know, I thought I was.
• 1:30:15
  I kept moving the label like I'm missing like a 20 or A2 or
• 1:30:19
  something. Yeah, dude, four and $5 for
• 1:30:21
  whole turkeys. And wouldn't that happen?
• 1:30:23
  Were they frozen or or were they?
• 1:30:24
  Yeah, they're frozen. I mean, I guess.
• 1:30:27
  It's because it's almost. I wish I had a deep freeze.
• 1:30:29
  I just filled it up. I'd cooked the Turkey every
• 1:30:31
  weekend, you know I. Love Turkey man.
• 1:30:34
  It's great, I know, I just don't have room for it.
• 1:30:37
  Yeah, yeah, I like dispatch cock em and and do all of that stuff.
• 1:30:42
  But I'll tell you what, I have no problem staying here,
• 1:30:45
  obviously in studio tonight I'm in Baton Rouge waking up.
• 1:30:49
  We're going early in the morning to Florine, Louisiana, which is
• 1:30:53
  180 miles from here. It's about 3 hours, 3 hours and
• 1:30:57
  15 minutes. So we'll be up there in time for
• 1:31:00
  lunch and hang out and do all that stuff and then turn around
• 1:31:05
  and and come back Friday evening and get ready for some Tiger
• 1:31:10
  football on Saturday's. Busy weekend.
• 1:31:12
  Yeah, I I I get it. Yeah, I got it going up to
• 1:31:16
  trying to get to Troy. The last home game as well.
• 1:31:18
  You know, it's my, my, my Trojans.
• 1:31:20
  I'll see if we can finish the season with a win.
• 1:31:23
  My God, we better. You know, we hadn't had the best
• 1:31:26
  year, but we did get better throughout the season.
• 1:31:28
  We kind of laid an egg, made some mistakes last week that
• 1:31:30
  ended up biting US against a really good Louisiana team.
• 1:31:33
  Louisiana Raging Cajuns have got a pretty good squad this year
• 1:31:37
  and they they exposed to some of a couple of mistakes and that's
• 1:31:40
  the difference in the ball game. So, but this week we got
• 1:31:42
  Southern Miss Southern's only won one.
• 1:31:45
  We've only won three. You know, I mean, I got much
• 1:31:47
  room to talk, but I think we're a much better football team.
• 1:31:50
  The spread says we're almost a 20 point favorite.
• 1:31:52
  So I guess we're supposed to win.
• 1:31:54
  You should win. You should win, Mark.
• 1:31:56
  Mark says he asked his coach. O is interested in in the Open
• 1:32:01
  Southern Miss head coaching gig. I have no.
• 1:32:04
  Idea I haven't. I haven't heard that, but I am
• 1:32:06
  for it. I'm all for it.
• 1:32:10
  I'd love to see him back coaching, yeah.
• 1:32:12
  And that'd be a good fit. I do believe Southern Miss it,
• 1:32:16
  you know, just kind of still down here, not too far.
• 1:32:18
  I think he could actually could drive there because if he still
• 1:32:21
  lives in Mandeville, they could totally drive to to Hattiesburg
• 1:32:26
  and at Hattiesburg. And there were.
• 1:32:27
  So this is. Yeah, that's exactly.
• 1:32:30
  What he he could totally do that because he drove from Mandeville
• 1:32:35
  to to Baton Rouge every day. Ain't any difference.
• 1:32:38
  Probably an easier drive to go to Hattiesburg from Mandeville
• 1:32:41
  than it is to come here to Baton Rouge.
• 1:32:43
  You know, probably make him, you know, 1,000,000 bucks a year get
• 1:32:47
  getting to coach football again ain't a bad gig, you know.
• 1:32:50
  Or he could just not coach football, keep banging hot
• 1:32:53
  blondes and keep getting keep getting about 1.5 from LSU for a
• 1:32:59
  few more. Years.
• 1:32:59
  Oh, that's true. He's Yeah, that's true.
• 1:33:01
  That's true. Yeah, that's true.
• 1:33:04
  I think that's probably what you're going to see him do.
• 1:33:07
  More than likely. Got to give Paul a little bit of
• 1:33:10
  a shout out in his Florida Gators number one for beating my
• 1:33:13
  Tigers. Not a shout out for that, but
• 1:33:15
  congratulations. But #2 on just showing what what
• 1:33:19
  they have done throughout the season, I don't.
• 1:33:23
  I think it's great Coach Napier is going to be staying.
• 1:33:26
  They put in the the the a little.
• 1:33:28
  Bit of Sunbelt Billy's a little bit better than they thought he
• 1:33:30
  was. Maybe he wasn't a problem after
• 1:33:32
  all. Maybe he wasn't.
• 1:33:34
  Maybe he wasn't. I mean, I tell you what, he's
• 1:33:36
  gotten those boys to play and they're playing really good
• 1:33:39
  football. They should beat Florida State
• 1:33:41
  this weekend and, and, and they're going to a bowl game.
• 1:33:45
  They deserve to go to a bowl game.
• 1:33:46
  I, I think they've had one of the better stories in the SEC,
• 1:33:50
  even with the losses they've had, they had an in just an
• 1:33:53
  insane schedule play. And look here at the end of what
• 1:33:58
  they what they've gone through. They beat LSU, they beat Ole
• 1:34:01
  Miss. I mean.
• 1:34:04
  Yeah, they're suddenly looking good.
• 1:34:06
  They're they're they're, they're looking good.
• 1:34:07
  They're they're, they're starting to figure it out.
• 1:34:09
  So yeah, yeah, kudos to the Gators over there.
• 1:34:12
  Kudos to the Gators, as much as it pains, pains me to to say it,
• 1:34:17
  but look, we're out of it. I've I've, I've reached
• 1:34:21
  acceptance, Blasey, that it ain't in the cards for me this
• 1:34:25
  year with the Tigers or the Saints.
• 1:34:27
  But the Saints have found themselves.
• 1:34:29
  They're similar to Florida. Yeah, we'll see how long it can
• 1:34:34
  last with the rizer, it's. Fun.
• 1:34:37
  Never know, never know man, what about so is Bama going to become
• 1:34:41
  the first three loss team? Well, I mean the first three
• 1:34:45
  loss team. I don't know any three loss team
• 1:34:46
  has ever been in the playoffs, right And any.
• 1:34:48
  No 14 Nothing, ever. OK, obviously it's 12 teams.
• 1:34:52
  It's makes it but like they're right there on the bubble, man.
• 1:34:55
  You know, I don't think any they could beat Auburn 70 to three.
• 1:34:58
  I don't think that would make a difference.
• 1:35:00
  It has to do with what happens above them, you know what I
• 1:35:02
  mean? And how how that shakes out.
• 1:35:04
  So that's going to be interesting and there's
• 1:35:07
  conference championships are going to really could cause some
• 1:35:11
  ripple effects, you know what I mean?
• 1:35:12
  You get some of the conference championships games and and that
• 1:35:14
  could change things, you know. I I think if you get a three
• 1:35:17
  loss team and and your and your team with the third loss is
• 1:35:21
  Georgia, like let's say Georgia gets beat in the SEC
• 1:35:24
  Championship. I still think if you're going to
• 1:35:27
  bring a three loss team, they're the team that you should
• 1:35:31
  probably bring. Has nothing to do with with my
• 1:35:36
  not love of Alabama. It's just I think they're
• 1:35:40
  probably the most deserving based off of what they've done,
• 1:35:43
  who they've beaten throughout the season.
• 1:35:46
  But it's a mess. It really is.
• 1:35:49
  It's it's a mess that Bama continues to get the nod with
• 1:35:54
  the College Football Playoff committee.
• 1:35:56
  They're knocking on the door Georgia firmly in.
• 1:35:59
  But if Georgia loses, do they then are they?
• 1:36:04
  Well, I you I don't think you drop them past because you can't
• 1:36:08
  punish them for a championship game.
• 1:36:09
  You can't drop drop them past Bama if they lost a close game,
• 1:36:12
  I don't think. But like I know Bama beat them.
• 1:36:14
  I get that. But you know, Bama's got had
• 1:36:17
  some good wins in the top 25 as well, But I don't think, I don't
• 1:36:20
  think that happens if Georgia loses and they're right there
• 1:36:23
  and they, it's a close game. You can't punish them for going
• 1:36:25
  to a championship game. And Bama stayed at home and both
• 1:36:27
  got 3 losses and one goes and one doesn't.
• 1:36:29
  I, I, I disagree with that regardless, flip, flip flop that
• 1:36:33
  situation. I disagree with it.
• 1:36:34
  So, but we'll see, man, it's going to be, it's going to be
• 1:36:38
  kind of it's, it's kind of wild. You thought 12 teams would kind
• 1:36:41
  of take care of everything. It's like, man, there's more
• 1:36:43
  Dang craziness now than there was before.
• 1:36:46
  They're going to expand it. They'll expand it to 14,
• 1:36:50
  guarantee you I, I promise you it's going to get expanded.
• 1:36:54
  It just it, it just will, and that's OK.
• 1:36:57
  If it does at this point in time, that's fine, but I think
• 1:37:00
  12's better than four if. It was just 4 this.
• 1:37:03
  Year it would be a it would be an even crazier mess.
• 1:37:06
  I haven't even thought about it until right this second, but
• 1:37:09
  just kind of briefly think about that outside the top 4.
• 1:37:13
  Then who do you bring in that's knocking at #5 through 10?
• 1:37:17
  Like they all have a case. They do.
• 1:37:21
  They do all. There's a good argument for all
• 1:37:23
  of them as you do. Well, I think it's cool.
• 1:37:27
  The first year, I think on a show, I predicted this.
• 1:37:30
  I need to go back. I can't remember the show.
• 1:37:31
  We talked about this last fall. I think when they started this
• 1:37:34
  College Football Playoff. I was like, man, I think I don't
• 1:37:38
  know how many years it is before a, a, a group of five team not
• 1:37:40
  only gets in because there's a pathway for a group of five for
• 1:37:44
  your 5th conference champion. That's how they get in.
• 1:37:46
  But what if they had the, you know, the really good year and
• 1:37:48
  they get ranked and they get the BA And that's what Boise State
• 1:37:52
  is sitting there staring down the throat right now.
• 1:37:54
  As long as they went out and they get the BA and they, they,
• 1:37:56
  they're ranked above, you know what I mean?
• 1:37:58
  That's just the way it, that's the way it works.
• 1:37:59
  You know, there's been a lot of people losing and, and the boys
• 1:38:02
  has been rolling. So I think that's cool.
• 1:38:03
  I think it's I think it's great. There's a pathway for group of
• 1:38:06
  five school 2 lanes sitting right outside on the edge
• 1:38:09
  looking in. I think if they could have won,
• 1:38:12
  you know, one of their two losses, I think they'd be
• 1:38:14
  sitting right there knocking on the door as well.
• 1:38:16
  So I think it's cool. It's good.
• 1:38:18
  It's expanded. It made it where, hey, let's
• 1:38:20
  let's get everybody in here, give everybody a pathway and an
• 1:38:22
  opportunity. So, you know, overall from that
• 1:38:25
  perspective, that's where college football is better.
• 1:38:27
  If they can just figure out this other stuff, you know, we could
• 1:38:30
  have something great again. But yeah.
• 1:38:32
  Cool stuff. It is cool stuff.
• 1:38:35
  It is cool stuff. Well, Blasey, look, we've gotten
• 1:38:37
  hungry. I'm hungry now.

  Next week we do have some stuff. I'm going to be on the road, as
• 1:38:44
  we've been saying. But we do have a show coming out
• 1:38:47
  on right now, TV next Wednesday. We did the top 10 action movies
• 1:38:54
  of the 80s and 90s. We recorded that yesterday with
• 1:38:57
  Jr. That is excellent.
• 1:39:00
  It was, it was a lot of fun. Kind of surprised, some
• 1:39:04
  surprises in there, some things that got left out and some of
• 1:39:09
  that's teased a little bit in the Bubba exclusive that was
• 1:39:12
  dropped today because we had no idea the timing.
• 1:39:15
  Like as usual, here it is. There it goes.
• 1:39:18
  You never. Know sometimes it's eight days
• 1:39:20
  later and then sometimes it's same day, huh?
• 1:39:23
  Same day. I mean, I sent it this morning
• 1:39:25
  at like 8:30 and then bam, there it is.
• 1:39:28
  Which is fine, totally fine. Very happy that it, that it came
• 1:39:32
  out before Thanksgiving. I hope a lot of people enjoy it
• 1:39:35
  because it was a, it was a really good episode with Gary.
• 1:39:38
  And so is the, the show that will drop next week.
• 1:39:42
  We won't be live next week. There's a, there's a small
• 1:39:46
  chance, like less than 3%. I have a place that I'm staying
• 1:39:50
  next Thursday night. It's at in Marksville, LA at the
• 1:39:53
  Paragon Casino if I remember correctly.
• 1:39:57
  Their Internet was wack and there really isn't any other
• 1:40:00
  good place to stay. So not very hopeful.
• 1:40:04
  Probably just going to call it now and not go live next week.
• 1:40:09
  But the following week Tiggy's back in the studio.
• 1:40:13
  I'm done with the the most of the traveling considering.
• 1:40:18
  Another thing we haven't talked about.
• 1:40:20
  Blasey. Sometime around Christmas,
• 1:40:22
  middle of December, somewhere in there.
• 1:40:25
  Potentially going live two or three nights one week, you know,
• 1:40:29
  just going up and trying to get some watch hours.
• 1:40:31
  We'll see how we're what our availability is.
• 1:40:35
  Schedules look like and all that.
• 1:40:37
  Yeah, we'll, we'll, we'll figure out something.
• 1:40:39
  Ton of content coming, ton of content in the can, dropped a
• 1:40:43
  ton of content on y'all tonight. It's been a blast.
• 1:40:47
  We're going to keep keep coming, we're going to keep recording
• 1:40:50
  and we're going to just keep on bringing it.
• 1:40:53
  And we appreciate y'all keeping. I really, really do.
• 1:40:58
  Yeah. Placie, any final thoughts for
• 1:41:00
  everybody? I know that you didn't get in.
• 1:41:01
  I wished everybody, of course, a very happy Thanksgiving at the
• 1:41:04
  beginning of the show and told them we couldn't do it without
• 1:41:08
  them. And do you have anything to add
• 1:41:10
  to that? No man, that that that's it.
• 1:41:12
  Listen, just drive safe. I know these roads are going to
• 1:41:15
  be crazy the next couple days. If you're traveling, be safe.
• 1:41:17
  Be extra cautious on what you're doing out there.
• 1:41:19
  I wouldn't recommend Gary Cantrell self driving tool right
• 1:41:23
  now. Probably not, you know, so and
• 1:41:25
  that's another one to go check out.
• 1:41:26
  That's pretty cool. I started watching that the
• 1:41:27
  other day. I got to finish it.
• 1:41:28
  But but no, you, you guys be safe out there, have fun with
• 1:41:32
  your family, be be thankful for everything in your life and and
• 1:41:35
  you know, just just enjoy these next couple days with family and
• 1:41:38
  friends and can't wait to see y'all again soon.
• 1:41:42
  That's right, we'll see. Y'all very.
