Welcome back to Tiggy and the Handler.
0:12
It's been a minute actually. Actually, I think it's I think
0:15
it's been a couple of months, but Jr. and I are finally back
0:20
in the saddle. We're ready to rock'n'roll.
0:23
But before I bring Jr. in, if you're enjoying the show, don't
0:27
forget to check us out at tigsbits.com.
0:31
That is the hub for all things show related and we'd love to
0:35
have you along for the ride. Jr.
0:40
My brother, dude, man, I couldn't, I couldn't hold back
0:45
my excitement when we first jumped on this video call.
0:50
I it, dude. I am pumped.
0:52
It's so good to see you, brother.
0:53
It's been way too long. We've text some, we've talked a
0:55
little here and there. We both been busy as crap, but
0:58
my God, is it good to look across the computer and see you.
1:01
Brother, I am kidding. I feel like I got my, I've got
1:04
my, I've got my, you know, my, all my ducks in a row now.
1:08
I got, I got my sidekick, my Superman.
1:11
You know, I can be Robin, you can be Batman thing.
1:13
I love it. We're back, baby, We're back.
1:15
Baby. It feels good.
1:17
It feels good. Look, we've like you said,
1:20
you've been on tour with Justin Moore and y'all have played a
1:23
lot of dates this summer. I just saw a new tour schedule
1:27
that came out with you're going to.
1:28
It looks like we're going to have to start to prepare for
1:31
this already moving ahead because y'all are going to be
1:34
busy as hell next summer and fall with Riley Green.
1:40
So lots of stuff going on, but that's a good thing.
1:43
I think hopefully the Bubba Army out there listening loves
1:48
hearing the solo shows that we both provide your Jr. the
1:52
Handler show with those amazing tour insights and those have
1:56
kept coming along. I've had solo shows with social
1:59
media influencers, cooking folks, all that kind of stuff.
2:03
The both of us have been able to record, just not together as
2:07
much as we'd like to. That's going to change those
2:10
some this fall, I do believe. So that's good, 100 percent,
2:13
100%, Yeah. It's been a very busy summer.
2:16
And you and I both do 10 different things, not just our
2:18
main jobs. You've had family stuff.
2:20
I mean, you're you're doing your normal job and, and, and this
2:24
and then raising kids and everything else.
2:26
Same with me. Yeah.
2:26
This summer has just been 100 miles an hour, a lot of long
2:31
travel, a lot of stuff trying to get accomplished at home, you
2:34
know, just just busy, busy spread all over.
2:36
But it's it's good to be back doing a podcast together.
2:39
Yeah, you. And I've been worse than you
2:41
because I've just, you know, the travel and personal stuff is
2:46
just really eating up my days off.
2:47
So I just hadn't had time. I hadn't I've barely done any
2:50
Jr. the handler shows, and I know there's six or seven you
2:54
out there that enjoy that show and I appreciate it.
2:56
That's why I do that for y'all. You know that, right?
2:58
That's why I do it, baby. But but no, it's been a lot of
3:02
fun and I've I've had I just had an episode last week with my
3:06
brother Wally, who's Jamie Johnson's handler for the last
3:09
decade or so, who I've known forever, and that was a lot of
3:13
fun. And I hope I hope everybody does
3:16
enjoy those shows. But I really enjoy doing our
3:19
show together so we can just riff and talk about just
3:21
whatever. I mean, I love obviously the
3:23
music's my my main thing, but this is our free form where we
3:26
kind of got started and I was thinking about it.
3:28
I was like when I tell people about Tigs bits and talk about
3:32
Tiggy, it's like I I hold it up. There is like in regard with
3:36
like it might, I might as well be telling him about Joe Rogan
3:39
because that's the way I that's the way I hold it.
3:41
When I explained it, I'm like, I'm talking about a famous
3:43
person. You know who I'm talking about?
3:44
Tigs. Yeah, the good podcast.
3:46
And I've had people come up to me and be like, dude, I had no
3:49
idea you were on another podcast.
3:50
Dude, that's so good that you're on that show.
3:52
It's so cool. They let you, you know, and I'm
3:54
like, yes, I'm honored. Absolutely.
3:55
I'm glad to be here. It's, it's, it's our little
3:57
network coming out of nowhere and just biting the ankles of
4:02
the establishment as much and as fast, as hard as we can.
4:06
Anytime we get a chance, we're going to get our peace.
4:08
One day, brother, we're going to get our peace.
4:10
Oh, I think so. I think so they're.
4:11
Like, I mean, you're already, I mean, you've been killing it on
4:13
your on the, the tailgating stuff, man, I've been looking at
4:17
some of those. I mean, they, they're great.
4:19
They've been great since their inception, but looks like
4:22
everybody else is getting on the train now.
4:24
Doesn't hurt to have a top three team either to to get.
4:27
Behind it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt.
4:29
There's a lot of revelry and and a lot of a lot of emotion and a
4:34
lot of people are fired up. We'll see how long this little
4:37
bubble will last. But it has been a fun little
4:40
bubble with with riding the tails from the tailgate.
4:43
And if you haven't, if you don't know what he's talking about,
4:46
you may hear one eventually later here on the Bubba Army
4:50
podcast, where I kind of piece some of the best moments of the
4:54
the season together and all of that.
4:56
Do a separate little show, But you can go and check out.
4:58
Last week I did do a tails from the tailgate.
5:01
You can go to tigs bits on YouTube and check that out.
5:04
It's been the Florida game was and it's just because top three
5:11
perfect day, perfect weather, hot but perfect weather and just
5:15
the culmination of all of that led to the greatest day of
5:19
content that I've ever got easily.
5:22
Like I haven't even put it all out yet.
5:24
And by the time you're listening to this, I still will have not
5:27
put it all out. There's so many good things.
5:30
Last weekend took a little bit of a break.
5:33
I got some good stuff at Southeast Louisiana and then
5:36
we'll we'll see what happens. The Tigers are on the road and
5:39
we're we'll find out what, we'll find out what happens because it
5:44
gets tougher moving forward so. Looking good so far.
5:48
I have. I wish I would have thought
5:50
about that. My nephews and and sister-in-law
5:53
and then went to homecoming SE. I should have got you all
5:59
together. That would be amazing.
6:00
If you could have interviewed Reese's, our nephews, that would
6:02
have been amazing. They're probably going to go to
6:05
school there. Yeah, I will have to do that.
6:07
When they, I didn't know they were going until like that day.
6:10
Cherise is like the the boys are going to be on.
6:13
They went to the game today. I was like, well, and by the
6:14
time we turned it on, it was third quarter and blow out.
6:16
They wasn't showing nothing. I'm sure I was like, I'm sure
6:18
they left. But yeah, I should have set that
6:23
up too. After watching the SEC
6:26
documentary on Netflix that that came in the preseason.
6:29
I didn't finish it all, but I watched most of it kind of gave
6:32
me a different light on Brian Kelly.
6:34
I was just a anti Brian Kelly guy per usual, because he came
6:37
from Notre Dame and you know, those old school rivals of Bama,
6:41
I'm just never going to give them any credit or love.
6:42
Just not going to happen. And and it just seemed kind of
6:45
squirrelly. But after watching that, I was
6:46
like, OK, now I kind of get it now and then watch I I don't,
6:50
you know, I never hated him or anything.
6:51
I don't know the guy, but I'm finding it easier to not pull
6:55
against him. And, you know, because I was
6:58
still the same. I'm the guy that I don't pay
7:00
enough attention to really know the nuts and bolts of it.
7:02
But I'm like, Coach O was y'all's guy.
7:04
He's from there. He talks like, yo, he looks like
7:06
y'all that should have been your guy forever.
7:08
But we, we forgot. So, yeah, but this, this guy's
7:14
he's he's, he's settling in there nicely, especially, you
7:17
know, he went out. Yeah, I know that those out
7:20
there will, who knows by the time this airs where they're at.
7:23
But the one thing with Brian Kelly, regardless of what
7:26
happens the rest of the season, he comes from that same school,
7:31
that same mentality as Nick Saban.
7:34
They're CEO's. They run the program.
7:36
They bring the best people to surround everyone with.
7:40
They recruit well, you know, it's just it's built from the
7:43
inside out and that's, you know, that happened.
7:47
That's happened here with Saban when he was at LSU.
7:49
Of course, he goes on to and does the same thing at Alabama.
7:53
And then it's like once you get one of those key pieces when
7:57
they're gone, then all hell breaks loose.
8:00
You know, you had LSU had a great recruiting year to bring
8:03
in Joe Burrow and all of the talent that was it was just a
8:06
magical year and go Joe at the helm.
8:09
It was just perfect. Like, yes, that's the most
8:11
Louisiana thing of all time. And it you know, it's just, it
8:15
was perfect though. Perfect.
8:17
But it always remains undefeated.
8:21
And you know what I'm talking about out there.
8:23
And it ruins you and it ruins a lot of men out there and it
8:27
takes them down. It got Kocho, it's gotten all of
8:30
the greats. It seems like the not all of the
8:33
greats. So it seems like the greats know
8:35
how to avoid some of those distractions and just keep on
8:40
going forward. Well, it said that Bill
8:42
Belichick lately doesn't seem to be working for him.
8:45
It remains undefeated. Yeah, and, and that whole thing
8:50
is weird. Belichick's, you know, he's
8:52
already had a long, illustrious career.
8:54
Why are you going back to college and trying to do
8:56
something? Just get.
8:57
Come on now. Go hang out at the lake.
8:58
Give me a break. Give some young guy a gig.
9:02
Exactly. Exactly.
9:03
But but yeah, it it it's it was a part, it was the perfect
9:08
storm. And but I've said that it only
9:11
makes coach Nick Sabans run even that more impressive.
9:15
And I'm that's one thing I noticed watching it year in and
9:19
year out with him was every year you lost all of your offensive
9:23
defensive coordinator special coaches here and there, strength
9:27
coaches this that you lost people every year you got
9:30
poached and somehow we're able to rebuild and most teams can do
9:36
it for a second. But after three or four years, I
9:38
mean, you Clemson, Georgia, I mean, and all these still could
9:41
come, come back and be just super dominant.
9:42
You guys like we were just talking about it's just hard
9:45
because they come in and take all your it's hard to reload at
9:48
those positions. I don't think, not the player
9:50
positions. And that's a whole new thing.
9:52
I'm not pretty sure that's why coach Saban got out.
9:54
He's like, I ain't, I ain't got. I'm going to lose my mind if I
9:57
deal with this crap too. I think the days of dominance
10:01
like Alabama put on for that 10 or 15 years of never out of the
10:07
top five, if not #1 the whole time, if not the team to beat
10:12
for as long as anybody ever will be in the history of the game.
10:17
I don't think I don't think that's going to happen anymore.
10:20
I'm not with Alabama. I don't think it's going to
10:22
happen with anybody. I don't think anybody.
10:25
I think Georgia is at the tail end of their run just because of
10:30
the way the transfer portal works out.
10:32
It's too many moving parts, too many key pieces.
10:35
You're going to have teams that come out of nowhere, have
10:38
amazing seasons, and in the next season they're gone and then
10:42
maybe they come back in three or four years and it's just going
10:45
to go up and down, up and down. I think that's the way the SEC
10:48
is going to turn into for the next decade.
10:52
Yep, too much money to put, you know, people swapping around,
10:55
moving too much. It's just it's a mess.
10:58
You never know. I mean, you could have national
11:01
champion one year, half of your team goes and plays for the
11:04
people you beat in the championship game the next year.
11:07
That never would have happened back in the day that.
11:09
Is. Insane about.
11:11
Well, hopefully again, things will get changed with some of
11:14
the rules. I know that they are working on
11:16
some things and some stuffs already kind of starting to come
11:20
in place to help some of that and of course coach Saban very
11:24
instrumental behind it. But we'll, we'll see, man.
11:27
I, it reminds me, I'm putting out, I remastered the Marty
11:34
Smith interview that we all did and it's coming out on my Tigs
11:38
Bits channel. Just I said, you know what?
11:41
I haven't shown a replay in a very, very long time.
11:44
And what better replay than that Marty Smith interview because,
11:47
and I listened back to it, we were talking about, and this was
11:51
prior to the PAC 12 going away, all of that, everybody moving.
11:56
It was just prior to that season, Jayden Daniels had not
12:00
won the Heisman Trophy yet that that was so 2 plus years ago.
12:04
And Marty Smith's talking about the impact of the NIL and all of
12:07
that. And we are living in the reality
12:11
of what he was saying just two, 2 short years ago.
12:15
Yeah, we are currently living exactly.
12:18
He described it perfectly. So if y'all check that out,
12:21
that'll be airing on the on the Tigs bits pay pages very soon
12:26
and go back and watch it if you hadn't.
12:28
Just a great episode with him. But the whole NIL era, all of
12:32
that stuff, it's just it's mini NFL.
12:36
That's just where we're at. And yeah.
12:39
Don't get me started. Well, hey.
12:41
Kelly's the CEO. That's that's right.
12:42
That's all started. And, and it seems like a lot of
12:46
them are and, and, and before we move on, I'll say that's a good
12:49
idea. We should reach out to Marty and
12:51
see if we could do a follow up. Let him hear that again and be
12:54
like, dude, you called it. What do you think?
12:56
What are your, what do you think about what you said?
12:58
Now? What do you think is going, you
12:59
know, give him 10 minutes or something, see if he wants to do
13:01
that because I didn't think about that.
13:04
You said that. Yeah, he kind of called half of
13:06
it. He did he.
13:08
We all saw the writing on the wall, but he he called it.
13:10
He did and being around it as much as he was, man, he was here
13:13
in Baton Rouge for for the Florida game and I hate that I
13:17
didn't. But you know, getting to him
13:19
Florida weekend, you know, I mean, we could have probably
13:22
made a call, but I wasn't out there till late.
13:26
He wouldn't have worked. I didn't realize he was even
13:28
here until Saturday morning. To be honest with you, it was
13:31
way too late at that point. That's usually how it works with
13:35
with that kind of thing. Either you set something up way
13:37
in advance and it's already planned, or it's a Dang last
13:40
second. Just because I've had Marty call
13:43
me, we'll be near his town and I think they're gone or town, I
13:49
don't even know they're supposed to be there and he'll give a
13:52
call. Hey, I'm over here by this, you
13:54
know, sign or this truck or this sound booth or whatever.
13:57
And and he's like, how do I get where you're at?
13:58
I'm like, hell, I didn't know you were here, you know, so so
14:02
it's E or it's planned out. We talked four months
14:05
beforehand. We're going to come here.
14:06
We'll be up at this place. We're going to be at the same or
14:08
it's something through work where it's set up with ESPN or,
14:11
you know, management. It's good to know and I expected
14:14
nothing. But that's usually, and even in
14:15
the music business, it works that way too.
14:17
Either you get some tickets way out in advance and everything's
14:20
planned and do it, or you're waiting on somebody to get for
14:23
the hookup or hit you back on something.
14:24
It's an hour before the doors and they're like, Yep, got him.
14:27
They left him at will. Cause like, I wish I'd known
14:29
that four hours ago, but all right, we're on our way.
14:31
Good to know Marty has a rolodex of contacts, you know, whenever
14:35
he goes to events as he should, as he should.
14:38
I mean, think of all the people that that dudes interviewed.
14:40
Anyhow, we can go down a whole Marty Smith train.
14:43
He's one of the coolest dudes that that we know on our show
14:47
for sure. Before, and I know this turning
14:49
impromptu sports moment with Tiggy and the handler, which I
14:53
appreciate everybody sticking in for that.
14:54
We normally don't talk a whole lot of sports, but we'll if you
14:57
like it and you want to talk about us, to talk about
14:59
something in your sporting world, send a message.
15:02
And like Tigg said earlier, go to tigsbits.com, like rate,
15:08
subscribe, all that fun stuff. And something I was thinking
15:10
about earlier is I need a new lid.
15:12
I need a new Tigs bits hat because I can't find my cool one
15:16
somewhere around here and I've got my bubble one, but I've kind
15:19
of worn it down. I like my new and hat I.
15:21
Like that hat? Yeah.
15:23
It's it's not too early in the year to start thinking about
15:26
Christmas guys and gals and Tigs Bits and Jay or the Hand are
15:29
both have merch pages with all kinds of fun stuff on there.
15:33
So it's never too early to start thinking about that.
15:35
And go ahead and get you some of that on order before some of it
15:38
runs thin when it gets close to Christmas.
15:40
Just a heads up, just heads up and they'll be I'm going to make
15:43
some. Yep, I'm going to make some
15:44
moves over on my merch stuff soon.
15:46
There's been some issues using about start using a new company
15:49
yadda yadda yadda. No problems at Tigsbits World.
15:52
And if if you don't buy anything else, go get a Tigsbits hat
15:56
because they're bad ass and I want to see you out wearing a
16:00
Tigsbits lid and I got my cool. There it is.
16:05
Tumblr here. Yeti deal this.
16:07
This keeps it good and cold, baby.
16:08
Yes, it does. Yes.
16:10
It does, anyway. A little quick PSA there, but
16:12
before we get off sports, Bruce Pearl retiring from Auburn.
16:17
Right. Isn't that crazy?
16:19
And his son taking over. Yeah.
16:21
I mean, that's interesting. I don't, I don't know.
16:24
I'm going to be honest, I don't know a whole lot about his son.
16:29
He's been with him forever, I'm pretty sure.
16:31
I think he went and coached somewhere else for a little
16:32
while and came back. I mean, it's awfully late in the
16:36
year just prior to tip off. A month.
16:40
A month away from college basketball and you're going to
16:43
retire like why didn't you do this over the summer?
16:45
I don't know. There's I don't know.
16:48
I hope that he doesn't have a health issue.
16:50
I love Bruce Pearl. Don't do not love Auburn, as I
16:54
know you do not either, but I've always.
16:56
Loved I respect Bruce Pearl. He gets it back buddy.
16:59
NC Auburn. I mean I've just listened to him
17:02
this morning on Shout out to Ike Morgan on his podcast this
17:07
morning today in Alabama. I didn't realize Bruce Pearl 2
17:13
SEC titles, two SEC tournament titles, two final four
17:19
appearances in 11 years. I know.
17:21
I mean it was only didn't win one.
17:23
Dude. It is almost impossible to win a
17:25
championship in basketball. 10 to go to the final four 2 * 11
17:29
year pretty much might almost get you in the rafters.
17:33
Yeah, for sure, for sure. I never liked playing against
17:36
him, but I always enjoy just watching him coach and all that
17:39
man. He's just like I do.
17:41
Yes, he did. He brought him in and and and
17:45
and I think he probably got away with a few things prior to the
17:47
NIL era. Oh.
17:50
Oh, he was he, he was in that old.
17:52
He was in the old guard. Yeah.
17:53
Oh yeah, He was the old guard. No doubt.
17:55
For sure, and as an Alabama fan I'm glad because he's good and I
17:59
hope his son sucks so. Yeah, well, he's big shoes to
18:03
fill. I don't know if he's earned it
18:05
or whatever. I can't get into that debate
18:07
because I don't know. I don't know.
18:09
And I really, I don't care about all.
18:12
I hope that they start to sell. Too I'm with.
18:15
Yeah, I hope. I hope LSU.
18:17
Hires Bruce Pearl going to Alabama now to be assistant.
18:23
Yeah, we'll both take Bruce immediately, though.
18:26
Y'all, Alabama has a pretty good coach.
18:29
Yeah, that's what I thought about that at 1st and I thought
18:32
I think we're good, Hey. But you know, I did hear on into
18:35
this. They went into it a little bit.
18:36
I did this morning that there was talks to him being a moving
18:42
into that Senate seat if Tuberville runs for governor.
18:46
But Auburn offered him a job as a special assistance to the ADI.
18:49
Think so? He's going to stay in school and
18:51
work, so I guess he's going to be an advisory.
18:54
He's retiring and going to get a get a chimney on the back, Yeah.
18:58
That's exactly what he's doing. Yeah, it's a. 100% not to go to
19:02
anywhere else and not to go be the senator.
19:04
Just hang out here and help make sure your son nice transition.
19:08
Yeah, classic Bruce is just going to get his bank and he's
19:13
going to chill. I don't blame him.
19:15
I don't blame him. He'll still go to a Auburn game
19:17
sometime this season and go shirtless and sit with the
19:20
students, I'm sure. Oh, you know, I hope he he might
19:24
pull a coach. Oh hell, I heard he just booked
19:26
a attorney. Just booked a house down in
19:28
Destin. Perfect.
19:32
Wow. Yeah, they should hang out
19:34
together and do a do a show. Pearl and Pearl and Coach O it's
19:40
just crazy. That'd be fun.
19:42
And saving me the DD. Yeah, exactly, exactly.
19:47
Well, Speaking of complete random randomness, because
19:51
that's pretty, that's pretty damn random right there.
19:55
It's part of what's become one of my favorite parts of how of
19:59
of our of the new Tiggy and the Handler show where we're
20:02
extremely unstructured today, but we still have some of our
20:05
good callbacks, like your random randomness.
20:09
What's what's on your mind today?
20:11
Do you have any random randomness?
20:13
Well, I was just thinking about this when I was getting some
20:16
stuff in my shed moved around before came in here to start
20:21
recording this podcast with you. I remember it just a feeling in
20:26
the air, the temperature, the smell, the breeze, the sunlight,
20:30
the way it was today just kind of took me back in time.
20:32
And and this is not this is a offshoot of the random
20:35
randomness, but you know how the right smell and environmental
20:38
just take you back, take your memories and mind back to
20:41
another place 100%. And it just kicked me back to
20:44
like, you know, late teens just doing something on a fall day
20:50
when you had absolutely nothing that you could be doing or
20:55
needed to do or had to do. And in today's modern world with
21:00
phone emails, accessibility and being our age with our
21:05
responsibilities now, there's no such thing as a full really day
21:10
off unless you forcibly make one.
21:13
But even then, your mind's going to be turning on some stuff.
21:16
But, but remembering back to a time when Mike could call you on
21:23
a cell phone at best or at a house that you had to be
21:25
somewhere if you wanted to take the call.
21:28
No tracking, no emails to, to do any work on the weekend or
21:33
whenever, if you need, if you thought you wanted to.
21:35
And if it was after 5:00, you couldn't get in touch with
21:37
anybody in a business or before, you know, six or seven True.
21:42
And now you can do everything. You know, I'm I'm up late
21:45
sometime or two in the morning on my computer doing this crap
21:48
because that's the time I can find the piece not to have to do
21:50
something else that during the time frame of the day I need to
21:53
get done. Right.
21:55
But thinking back about the good old the the old days, the good
21:58
old days, when when you're at an age when you literally have
22:02
nothing to do, you can take a whole day off and just ride
22:04
around and let it go as it goes, it seems like a distant memory.
22:12
Yeah. But I think that's part of
22:17
life's balance is to find a way to get back to being able to do
22:19
that and take care of business and your responsibilities in the
22:24
same. Haven't figured it out, but that
22:26
might be a little goal to try to.
22:29
That that would be a great goal because on those days where I do
22:33
try to disconnect from everything that mine never stops
22:37
and I like never truly relax like I'm never really I'm never
22:42
back to 16 year old Tiggy who's out on Toledo Bend fishing just
22:48
hoping that bad weather doesn't come up.
22:50
Other than other than that, I'm going to be home at after dark
22:55
that way after dark and hopefully and usually there was
22:59
a meal there. So I came in, took a shower,
23:02
ate, went to bed because I'd fish for 12 or 14 hours and I
23:07
had nothing else to do the next day except.
23:09
For go play a video game for like 3 or 4 hours and not even
23:13
flinch. And not feel guilty about doing
23:16
it, like I could have been doing something else with my time.
23:20
But it's OK, I do believe to allow yourself to have that kind
23:25
of time to yourself. I think that that that guilt
23:29
just comes with the pressure of as you said, as we're getting
23:32
older, there's just more and more coming at you.
23:35
It's just left and right jabs all day long.
23:37
And they may just be little jabs.
23:39
They may just be little body shots not landing too hard, but
23:43
they just keep coming all damn day long.
23:46
Just right when you think it's done, here comes another one,
23:50
right? It's just, you know, it's hard
23:52
to truly relax. So yes, I agree.
23:56
If anybody, if any of y'all have ever figured out how the hell to
23:59
get back to that place without us going to another country and
24:04
doing Alaska or whatever. However, you, which is not out
24:07
of the question, not at all, totally not out.
24:09
Not at all. Not at all.
24:11
But I like to answer love over the next six months, 6 to 18
24:15
months, I mean. Will Aaron Rodgers is saying
24:19
100%? Throw on some cameras, Tiggy.
24:22
Get to editing. Post the.
24:24
Content Catch me and Tiggy in a jungle somewhere.
24:28
You kidding me, Netflix? Holler at us.
24:33
We're we're, we're down that kind of bring it makes me think
24:36
of, of something of this is random, but goes along the lines
24:40
of, you know, I don't know exactly what the entire Bubba
24:47
Army thinks about us because we are a true variety show, which
24:52
is what we've been since day one.
24:54
I bring up different variety. You bring a different variety.
24:57
We dance together with Blasey me, you Blasey.
25:00
We talk about aliens. We talked about everything.
25:03
It is a true variety show. That is what that is what what
25:07
this is, but I'm not 100% sure. And this kind of leads into what
25:15
we're going to talk about here in a second with the the video
25:18
killed the radio star. But I just was thinking, what
25:24
the hell do you bubble army? Let us know what the hell do
25:27
y'all think about us? Because when I was watching that
25:31
documentary and I didn't mean to skip ahead to it, but when I'm,
25:34
when I'm watching it, I'm just sitting there and I'm like, how
25:39
the hell did we get involved with this?
25:41
In a good way? In a good way.
25:43
Just a. Good way.
25:44
Sometimes. And sometimes it's like, God
25:46
damn. Yeah, it's.
25:49
Like let go of the Hogan, let go of the Hogan, and then Hogan
25:53
dies. Well, we've said that.
25:54
We've publicly said that a bunch of times, but we love Spun Jo,
25:57
so I'll be. Just Oh yes, for sure.
25:59
America and I love the bubble. I'll just give my quick thing on
26:02
that. I love the bubble army.
26:04
I love everybody. I appreciate Spun Jo giving us
26:07
the spot. I'm a fan.
26:09
I love wrestling and music. He does too.
26:12
Is he ridiculous? Of course he is.
26:14
I got I didn't even know half of his story because I'm not from
26:16
South Florida. Blasey kind of got me up to
26:18
speed on all this. And I'd always heard.
26:20
And then as soon as we they, they adopted us on their
26:26
network. I had people coming out of the
26:28
woodworks. Oh, you know, Bubba, Bubba,
26:29
Bubba. A lot more people knew about
26:31
Bubba than I thought just because I'm from the sticks of
26:33
Alabama. Yeah, but appreciate the crap
26:37
out of him. And and and now seeing how he
26:39
does it, he creates stars. I mean, he's a he's a he's a
26:41
worker. I mean, I got I I will.
26:44
We'll go deeper to this on different times as this
26:46
discussion goes on. But yeah, I'm a big fan of
26:49
Spongeo. Is it ridiculous?
26:50
Yes. Would I, would I, if we were
26:52
friends, would I be like, hey, not just don't say that in
26:55
certain things around certain people because I'm old
26:57
fashioned. I'm from Alabama.
26:58
That leads me into who I think how we relate with the the
27:01
bubble Army. We're an extension of the bubble
27:03
Army. We're up here covering South
27:04
Alabama and central Louisiana. You know, it's it's we're we're
27:09
we're friends. We're obviously Seth's our
27:11
homie, you know, love me love. I mean, and you know, all Gary,
27:17
all our buddies, I mean, we're friends.
27:19
That's what I say. I don't even know Bubble.
27:20
We've never even talked it person to person.
27:23
I I look forward to it. But everybody else I've ever
27:26
dealt with, his organization is top notch and just good people
27:30
and yeah, and and good and good at what they do.
27:33
So I'm appreciative to all them and glad to have them as, as,
27:36
as, as friends and colleagues. And I feel like we, like I said,
27:42
we're just spreading the love up here to a different thing.
27:44
They they accepted us in. Well, I think, I think our, our
27:49
demographic is the southern culture.
27:53
Thank you, Sir. Kind of guy, you know, very,
27:56
very southern. Very.
27:58
Southern Man. Hey, and that's all right.
28:01
I wonder, and this is kind of where I'm getting where I was
28:04
going with it is I don't think that we, after watching the
28:07
documentary, I don't know if we are extreme enough.
28:11
I don't know if we are controversial enough in our
28:14
takes and things like that. But that's never who we that's
28:18
never who we pretended to be. No, we haven't pretended to be,
28:22
but there's enough people out there that know.
28:26
And Lynn, we, it's like we got the Stars and Stripes.
28:32
We're where we're at in our careers, both of us.
28:35
We, they know what we're capable of.
28:37
We've already done it, been there, done that, got the
28:39
T-shirt. I've been doing it.
28:40
I've been on the road for 25 years before that.
28:42
That was, I was a party guy too, you know, so being extreme,
28:47
there's never not been in in close proximity anywhere I've
28:51
ever been. Same with you.
28:52
You're like my buddy Grice. I said, don't let that insurance
28:55
salesman fool you. That stuff we got is crazy.
28:57
And we've talked about that on shows.
28:59
I we've alluded to they know. You get a glimpse of it in the
29:04
tie in the tails from the tailgate.
29:05
Just a. Glimpse.
29:06
This is how this goes back to the southern things.
29:08
It's like, you know, we're going to have a, you know, have a polo
29:12
button up on, but probably going to be the most hammered person
29:14
at the party. Don't have, don't have to look
29:16
crazy to be crazy kind of thing. You know what I mean?
29:18
Don't don't let the don't let the clean shade, don't let the
29:22
haircut fool you. You know what I mean?
29:24
I, you know, I used to have a rat tail and I got I got scars.
29:28
I don't want to remember too, you know what I mean?
29:30
So it's like I feel like they give us, they know, they know
29:33
we're crazy. They just think we're their tame
29:35
cousins that are a little older and trying to trying to, you
29:38
know, evolve as people and and look back and fondness.
29:44
That's why I don't shy away from it.
29:45
And everybody knows I used to throw down and hadn't been, you
29:48
know, I've kind of laid the bottle down over the last year
29:50
or so. I'm I'm, you know, I try to try
29:52
to keep it leaning green and just be be safe and try to a
29:56
little Wellness check, you know, throughout.
29:58
But but I'm still crazy. I still like to party.
30:00
I like all the same things I always did.
30:02
And some of their now some of their ridiculousness, like I
30:05
said, goes back to I'm a little bit old fashioned.
30:06
That's just a little bit of that southern thing.
30:08
If some stuff, you know, you just, yeah, a little bit, you
30:13
know, my mom is still around, you know, my grandma don't want
30:15
to say it, you know, but everybody's different and that's
30:17
fine. Some people don't, you know,
30:19
that's like my, some people drink with their family.
30:20
Some people don't drink with their family.
30:22
My mom is my mom, my mom and she hasn't, my mom doesn't
30:27
understand the Bubba army. She understands the Bubba army
30:31
and and I'm like, look, Mama, here's the thing.
30:34
These people are as loyal as it gets.
30:36
Now are we everybody's cup of tea?
30:39
Not even close. But we have a lot of people that
30:43
follow our show and are extremely loyal to us, follow
30:48
both of our solo stuff like they are that consider them friends.
30:52
They are friends and that none of that would have ever happened
30:55
without Bubba. But mom's mom's limited
30:59
knowledge of of Bubba is the Hulk Hogan sex tape.
31:03
She's like, why are you associated with this?
31:06
I'm like, well, he found us, you know, I mean, yeah.
31:09
And he's still the. Shit.
31:10
And we know we and that's the first thing we're like, because
31:13
you try to, you try to tell him everything about him except for
31:15
that. And then you're like, all right,
31:16
he was above, he was the Hogan sex tape guy and you're like,
31:21
but he don't let it go either. So I guess you know.
31:23
No, he doesn't. He doesn't.
31:25
But I mean, let's jump jump into that documentary, man.
31:29
But. But before we get down, but yes,
31:31
I I love the bubble army. I appreciate y'all I I feel
31:35
kindred with a lot of the the people at southern Florida.
31:38
You stay Florida. I love Florida.
31:40
Most of those guys are from people that came because they
31:42
love Florida so much. They move down there.
31:44
So I'm glad they've taken over and I hope Seth's listen to
31:48
this. You're the man that you're what
31:50
you've done for the podcast leg of the Bubba network.
31:56
Bubba Army Network is, is awesome all the way around.
32:00
And on the show itself, all that Seth Lummy Rock'n'roll, he goes
32:05
back to what I said earlier. Bubba does create stars.
32:07
You say what you want. He's been everywhere.
32:09
He knows everybody. He created stars.
32:11
He's still doing it. And he, he really never went
32:14
anywhere. And we get in the dock on that.
32:16
But yeah, amazing the heights he got to and then but he knows he
32:20
we're like Bubba. Bubba ain't as crazy as he used
32:22
to be either. That's a fact, that is.
32:25
Hey and hey, he looks hey, before we get on that, he looks
32:27
a whole lot better too. God damn, he let he go
32:30
throughout his career. But hell would you with the
32:32
party. I guess you just don't care.
32:34
But Bubba look good these days. You look back.
32:36
Hell, Bubba looks good for all the he's been through and that's
32:39
kind of what we're trying to do too.
32:40
I'm trying. Longevity.
32:43
Let's live through this. But yeah, I mean, that
32:46
documentary truly was, I mean, it was great.
32:50
It was just fantastic. It was well done, well produced,
32:55
all of that good stuff, but it told the story.
32:58
Magraphy, all that. Yeah, it really was.
33:00
It really. Looked very, very, very.
33:02
About 3540 minutes too long. But a little lengthy.
33:06
A little lengthy. Probably could have lost the
33:08
end, but I see how they were wrapping it up.
33:10
But a little long. I do agree.
33:13
I do agree. But but overall, like, I didn't
33:17
know the story. Of course I know the story.
33:20
Blasey told the story. That's how this all happened,
33:23
how we even got on. I mean, how the hell did it
33:25
happen? It happened because Bubba heard
33:28
a clip of Blasey summing up that whole entire story in less than
33:34
a minute. And.
33:36
Still the greatest summary of it ever made.
33:39
It should have made it should have made that damn movie.
33:41
It should have done it should have been a trailer.
33:44
I just sent him the uncut good video version of it.
33:49
But yeah, dude, it was. He absolutely nailed it and
33:54
summed it all up. But then to see the things, what
33:57
made it so good is all the visuals of it, because I've
34:00
heard of some of these things. And then as I'm seeing some of
34:03
the things, I'm like, oh, I remember that.
34:06
I remember hearing about that. Or I saw it somewhere on TV,
34:10
maybe on the Howard. Didn't Howard Stern have a
34:13
channel? It was like it was his show
34:16
would come on later that night. But every now and then some
34:19
Bubba stuff would go over, if I remember right.
34:22
I'm sure that was 20 plus years ago or 20 years ago.
34:29
But yeah, that mean there's the whole he it's just insane.
34:34
Everything that he did, all the stars, all the craziness, all
34:37
the FCC fines, the this, the that.
34:41
But then ultimately. And the charitable and the
34:44
charitable causes along the way. Standing up for the little man.
34:47
That's the things you do. That's the endearing things
34:50
about Bubba, you know what I mean?
34:52
It's like he, he knows, right? He just pushed.
34:55
He just likes to push the envelope.
34:56
He just pushes the envelope. And they said it.
34:58
His sister's mom said it. Yeah.
35:00
And he's always been that way. Yeah, he's been that way his
35:03
entire life, and that's never going to change.
35:06
Just like we've said. And just like Blasey has said,
35:09
Bubba just can't get out of his own way sometimes.
35:12
Hell, I think even Bubba has said it.
35:14
You know, it's just he just can't help himself.
35:17
He just can't help himself. He, he, he's good at stirring
35:21
the pot. He's probably one of the best
35:23
maybe of all time of stirring the pot and knowing how to do
35:26
it. It's incredible.
35:28
And what he can get the information that he can get out
35:31
of people because they love sponge.
35:34
Oh yeah, he's trustworthy and and he but he is trustworthy
35:39
like he is if he well. That's what I'm saying.
35:41
He doesn't. He didn't.
35:42
He doesn't. I mean, he's, he's not
35:44
committing any crimes, does what he says.
35:46
You know, he's just, he's just out there.
35:48
He's just wild. He's just a little butt wild.
35:50
Like he said, he's got some kinks.
35:52
But he's got some kinks. That was a funny line.
35:55
But he's not, you know, he's not trying to go against the law.
35:58
He's actually supporting law enforcement, some of that kind
36:00
of stuff, you know, so. Yeah, it was.
36:04
But then it really it really brought it all back to how Spice
36:09
Boy eventually how he got that tape and it all makes sense.
36:13
I feel the whole ultimately the whole summary on this deal is
36:16
that Bubba was vindicated from that documentary of and.
36:21
And very apparent, yeah, that that Hulk knew that that kind of
36:26
happened. You know, a little bit of that
36:28
in the story. But then to hear Brooke Hogan
36:30
come on a couple of times and go to the premiere and all that
36:34
stuff with Bubba, just to validate, validate it from the
36:39
inside as well, You know, it just has to make it has to make
36:45
Bubba feel good because he deserves it.
36:48
He's had a tough break, and I think he's on his way back.
36:51
And I do believe like he has said digitally, there's no one
36:55
else that's been in radio that's being able to do anything to
36:59
that level that that he is doing it AT and and his own frankly
37:06
his own cruise control, like it's just kind of a matter of
37:09
the market getting right, you know what I mean?
37:12
And him and him getting out of here too.
37:14
No one to diversify and go digital.
37:17
Yeah. You know.
37:19
Yeah, cuz terrestrial it's still very important I.
37:23
Still think I hope it stays around forever.
37:26
I do too because it sure is nice to get in a vehicle and if your
37:30
your Bluetooth is screwing up or something like that you could
37:33
still put it on the radio and. Listen to our Sound of Paradise
37:37
105.7 That's right, a couple blocks.
37:40
I listen to the sound. That's all I listen to when I'm
37:43
driving around at home usually and unless I'm put on a podcast.
37:46
But I listen to the radio all the time.
37:47
The problem is it like television, like this whole
37:51
thing with Jimmy Kimmel and all these different, you know,
37:53
television, it's all goes back to money, advertising dollars
37:56
and the big advertisers are the pharmaceuticals and the bad food
38:01
and all that. But like, so somebody's got to
38:03
pay, but we just got in a bad system.
38:05
I don't think there's any way to get out of it because I watched
38:07
that Titans of Hollywood and same same kind of thing.
38:11
It's always been that you got to come up with the money to pay
38:13
for all this stuff and it's advertisers and it's advertising
38:17
dollars. And that's why the radio, you
38:20
know, they're, they're seeing better advertisers are seeing
38:24
better numbers other places. So they bounce out.
38:25
So radios just going down. But it's so important because
38:28
everybody, you know, especially that's the thing in rural
38:32
America, a lot of people still depend on basically analog
38:36
things, you know? Very true.
38:38
But very, very true. But yeah, anyway, so yeah,
38:41
Bubba's, Bubba's done a good job on both.
38:43
And I love the fact how he came back and and got back on top and
38:49
the Cal to Guy and Spice Boy getting out of not never having
38:53
to face any trouble for what they did or that we know of or
38:56
restitution or have paid any fines or anything is crazy.
39:03
And including the lawyer who's involved with brokering the tape
39:07
was there. I mean, they were it was
39:08
basically a blackmail operation. There's no laws against that.
39:11
And then once they did, they sealed them because of the
39:13
settlement. I'm like, that just proves
39:14
another broken system. Our judicial system has got some
39:17
flaws for sure in the way things work.
39:20
And that's wild. And, you know, they had a, you
39:24
know, they had, you know, they wanted to get it, Bubba, because
39:26
he'd been down there calling out the crooked politicians in that
39:28
area forever. So they were like, here's one,
39:31
we can get him. On they got to hang him yeah
39:33
that's exactly right and that just goes to show I think that
39:39
whole documentary shows how broken the entire just like you
39:42
said how broken the whole system is from from I mean a guy's just
39:47
a radio DJ OK just doing a morning zoo show you know
39:52
whatever in the largest radio market in in the United States
39:56
in Tampa. But he's just a radio
39:58
personality. People get their panties in a
40:00
wide I've seen it here. It's everywhere.
40:03
You know, like Walton and Johnson here in Baton Rouge,
40:06
They they have a fairly good. Fairly large presence throughout
40:10
the South, not as big as Bubba ever had at one point, but a, a,
40:14
a large one. They ruffle feathers all the
40:17
time. It's just part of a morning
40:19
show. And politicians have to have
40:21
thicker skin than that. But they don't.
40:25
They're just people and they think it.
40:27
And then it starts to get petty. And then it gets to a point of
40:30
wolf that dude, I'm going to, you know what I mean?
40:33
Like I'll show you, which is what happened to Bubba.
40:37
I don't know if bubble will ever get to back at that level of
40:41
crazy at the top, but that game isn't there anymore.
40:45
Like like a bubble. No, that's the thing.
40:47
He's going to be like the beast. Yes, he'll have to, but and
40:50
that's already been done. Bubba's evolving as well his and
40:53
he's he not, he's doing it, as you know, with these podcasts
40:56
and things like this, he'll more, he'll morph into
40:58
something, whether he has a, a YouTube show, that's, that was
41:03
something that this will morph into and, and could take him
41:05
back, you know, to a couple more steps up the up the ladder, if
41:10
that's what he chooses to do. But he's got a comfortable spot
41:13
where he's at with what he's doing now, you know, but who
41:21
knows? Like I said, it's undetermined
41:22
because we don't know what will end up being that next format or
41:25
medium that. I just love the whole, I love
41:30
the whole documentary, the seeing some of the crazy things,
41:33
knowing some a little bit more about the stories, a little
41:36
deep, the a lot deeper dive. Then then tying it in with Roger
41:41
Stone and and all of that and Trump and all like that.
41:44
That's kind of that's a little bit of where it is very true.
41:49
There's nothing wrong with that. That's where I felt the
41:52
documentary got a little lengthy and tying it back in, you know?
41:56
That's all Rodgers got in. But it's still great.
41:59
Instagram that Trump watched the documentary, Rodger Stone said
42:08
he's already watched the trailer, and Trump himself said
42:12
it puts the pieces together that he hadn't fully understood
42:15
before. If you if the trailer put pieces
42:20
together for Trump, Can you imagine how he'll react if he
42:22
sees the whole thing? I can tell you he's going to
42:23
react. He's going to wake up and take a
42:25
nap or a bump or a shot or something 'cause he's going to
42:27
be asleep. Bubba.
42:30
He's he about 40 minutes and he's like his Bubba thinks a lot
42:33
of himself, doesn't he? He's like, just like me.
42:37
I do look and this and this is just for fun and this is and
42:41
this is and I would have done the same damn thing, Spongeo.
42:44
Trust me, if if somebody was doing a documentary on me, I'd
42:47
have done the same thing. Roll it from the top boys get
42:50
the hold by one shot to get it out there for everybody.
42:53
We go get it all in there. But when it started to he did
42:55
they did the spiel. They basically could have done
42:57
the intro would have about two more minutes of intro would have
43:00
been the whole movie. But then it goes, what is it
43:05
Chapter 1 a star is born and I'm like and it shows a baby picture
43:10
of sponge. Oh, I said.
43:11
Oh hell, we going all the way back towards.
43:13
Going back. Here we go.
43:15
And I and then I just, I buckled in.
43:18
I said, oh hell, here we go, you know, then I saw, you know, 151
43:22
minutes. I was like, Yep, here we go.
43:24
But I thought it was good. And like I said, I thought it
43:26
was shot really good. Like I said that earlier, but it
43:29
could be shorter. We, we made jokes on it, but I'm
43:31
actually glad all the stuff's in there because you get all the
43:33
information. If you get all the information.
43:36
Bubba's, you know, I would take this as a one big thing I took
43:40
away from it is, and I've said this before and Bubba knew this.
43:43
You can see the regret in his face.
43:45
I wish he'd have got rid of the tape.
43:46
Probably should have never got it on tape.
43:48
Should have had it closed circuit.
43:49
You know, he said, you know, his wife might try some tricky
43:51
stuff. Well, he was going to make sure
43:52
to have in his back pocket because he wanted to try some
43:54
tricky stuff too. Should have been got rid of it
43:57
should have been in a better locked spot.
43:59
He knows all this and and he's terribly regretful of it, but I
44:05
can tell you this is a PSA out there for everybody living in
44:07
this new modern world of clouds and digitized everything.
44:10
You know how you avoid all that? There's probably be some
44:12
pictures of you anyway that that aren't you that are fake and AI,
44:15
but don't take no naked pictures of yourself.
44:17
Don't take none of nobody. Don't take none of yourself.
44:20
I ain't got none of me or none of my body parts on my phone,
44:23
unless it's from the hospital or something, some stitches nor my
44:26
wife. I don't want none of that on my
44:27
phone. I don't you.
44:28
Who knows how you can get that? You know how you can avoid that
44:30
stuff not getting seen by everybody?
44:32
Don't take don't do it. That's that's all it goes back.
44:34
But old fashioned things, you know, some things are just
44:37
supposed to be it's different between a man and a woman at the
44:40
house and stuff like that. You know, it's not they public
44:44
and put it on these different places.
44:46
Unless you're into that. OK, unless you want everybody,
44:48
unless you want it. But don't be mad when everybody
44:50
sees your junk or you're getting something happens with it
44:54
because you know, by back then you had to have a picture or a
44:58
drawing or a sketch or something.
44:59
I guess, you know, and that you there was no it's living in the
45:03
world and if somebody's smart enough on computer and they can
45:06
find out how to get it, you know what I mean?
45:08
So I'm it was on DVD, but you got to wonder too, was it it
45:17
where's the closed circuit recording stuff?
45:19
Is it still recorded on that hard drive on that?
45:21
Did they get that? I mean, you know what I mean.
45:24
Or did she have a copy? Do we know that?
45:26
We don't know, it sound like it. But no.
45:30
But no one knew either. There was a part in there that
45:33
was like, wait, maybe she? Why would she have a copy?
45:37
Of it. Oh, it made you think about all
45:39
angles. If for a second there you
45:40
thought about everybody. It was a it was a clue type
45:43
deal, you know, and finally it was a spongeboy and, you know,
45:51
with the machete in the closet kind of thing.
45:55
Yeah. That's what it.
45:56
Was, but that goes back. He should have had a.
45:59
It should have been a lock box with a thumbprint or a separate
46:04
code or some type of safe. Come on, Just something.
46:06
Yeah, he knows that now, so there's no need to.
46:08
Kick your ass down. I mean, look, I know.
46:10
That but it go back. And change things he certainly
46:13
would. You can't.
46:15
But I think it's time we move on.
46:17
You know, I don't think, I don't think anybody's going to find
46:19
anything out about Hogan's death, unfortunately, any more
46:22
than we've already found out. It'll be like half the other
46:24
things. Apparently we're all It's why we
46:27
have conspiracy theories, because nobody ever tells us the
46:29
damn truth. That's a fact, Yes, I mean, that
46:33
is a fact. Well, I mean, bottom line, and I
46:39
don't want anybody to think that I am certainly not appreciative
46:42
of being on being able to speak to you guys through this
46:45
platform at all because God Almighty are we.

48:45
Remember when people did that? Remember Girls Gone wild?
48:47
Remember how crazy the 90s were, You know, and stuff, It goes
48:52
back to our stuff. Hell that we were, we were in
48:54
that generation. We were partying in 90s.
48:56
Hell yes we were. And I'm glad that some of that
48:59
stuff wasn't available. Yeah.
49:00
Girls going wild. I watched a documentary just
49:03
about that and from and from some of the girls that were
49:08
captured on film. Yeah, I can't remember the name
49:10
of it. I think it was on Netflix.
49:12
Yeah. Go find and check.
49:14
Go, go check it out. It's it's pretty.
49:16
It's pretty good too. Just the guy was a guy.

The guy was a crook, I think. I can't remember.
49:21
I watched him. It's been a while.
49:23
Yeah, I can't remember the exact story but he a lot of regret
49:28
from some of the a. Lot of these.
49:30
A lot of these common theme. When you do a bunch of crazy
49:33
antics, you end up with a lot of regret and pain in the end.
49:35
A lot of alcohol, a lot of wild crazy stuff.
49:38
Usually a lot of pain and grit at the end.
49:39
Imagine that. Yeah, imagine that.
49:42
And no one ever never seems to listen.
49:43
Not when you're that young. You're like, no, well, they're
49:46
not talking about me either. They're talking about somebody
49:49
else. That won't happen to me.
49:50
That's no. That's so go take pictures of
49:53
your junk and see. No, nobody do that.
49:58
Hey random random thought right now just because I was looking
50:01
on my. I think this whole show is just
50:03
random random. Well, we need to do a catch up
50:06
session, so we just included all of our podcast.
50:09
We've been wanting to talk about.
50:10
Yep, all our podcast friends to listen and then I talked to all
50:14
kinds of people that listen to the podcast and both shows, all
50:18
the shows, everything related man, it's good to catch up with
50:21
people. So hey, everybody out there
50:23
appreciate y'all sticking with us and always jumping on the
50:26
ride with us. So just want to say shout out to
50:29
all the folks out there and Paul Rogers, all the all the the
50:34
usual suspects. We appreciate y'all.
50:37
Yeah. And I should have wrote a list
50:39
that because there's so many cool ones man and I just chit
50:41
chat with people on. Jerry Wayne.
50:43
Yeah, I know. I'm leaving people out.
50:46
I know I don't even want to go down the list because I'm like,
50:48
I just text with two or three people today and I just, I can't
50:51
think about. I got too many things going
50:53
through my brain. But random is today in 1930 in
50:57
Albany, GA, Georgia was born 1 Mr. Ray Charles.
51:01
Nice. About that Happy birthday, Mr.
51:05
Ray Charles. Absolute legend.
51:08
Oh yeah, and one of the best singers there ever was.
51:12
No doubt. He was.
51:14
So in all transparency, transparency, we're recording
51:17
this on September 23rd would be his birthday.
51:20
And this little thing here says who helped race racially
51:25
integrate country and pop music during the 1960s.
51:28
His 1962 album Modern Sounds and Country and Western Musics and
51:33
its sequel, Modern Sounds and Country and Western Music Volume
51:37
to helped to bring country into the mainstream of music.
51:42
His version of Don Gibson's song I Can't Stop Loving You top the
51:45
pop chart for five weeks. Charles died June 10th, 2004 due
51:51
to acute liver disease in his home in Los Angeles, CA.
51:54
Yeah, those two albums they mentioned, those 60s are
51:57
fantastic. And that really was that kind of
51:59
bridge. That's when it was still the
52:01
charts even called them country and western before I just went
52:04
to country charts and. And but that's that's just a
52:08
fantastic album. I want to say I've got one of
52:10
those somewhere, but yeah, happy birthday, Ray Charles legend.
52:13
Brother Ray, Yes, Sir. One of the best.
52:17
I never think I love. I love that Ray Charles song in
52:21
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation whenever he's in the
52:24
attic and he's. Oh, it gets you teared up.
52:27
Every time. Every.
52:28
Time. Wonderful feeling.
52:31
Oh. Yeah, that's it.
52:32
That's it. Gives me goose pebbles.
52:34
Yeah, I know, man. Yeah.
52:35
And him and him and Willie Nelson doing 7 Spanish angels.
52:38
Are you kidding me? That might be one of the most
52:41
impactful duets of all time, has been a bunch, but that's in.
52:44
That's in. Was that on volume 2?
52:46
Was that? On no, that was later.
52:48
That was that, I thought. That was later on.
52:50
That was later on, that was a. But it just goes to just show,
52:54
yeah, I need. I have not listened to both of
52:56
those albums in its entirety. I would think it's on Spotify or
53:01
Apple Music or something. I, I need to, I need to go and
53:04
just, I may do that today, actually.
53:07
Always, always love it when I mean, Jr. is a music guy.
53:11
He is a tour manager for the legendary Justin Moore.
53:15
You got to expect some musical Nuggets to come from Jr. and his
53:18
influence. I'm so glad to have you as a
53:21
friend and all of that as we've been as Blacy introduced us
53:25
because dude, anytime, anytime Jr. gives a music wreck, I'm
53:29
going to listen. And generally I'm going to be
53:32
texting him back and being like, Oh my God, I didn't, I realized
53:36
I forgot he sang this or I didn't realize this came from
53:39
that album or, and I it's just like with who'd you turn me on
53:45
to? Guitarist badass Chuck Berry
53:51
yes, there you go. I couldn't remember him, Chuck
53:54
Berry. I had never listened to that
53:56
album that you told me to listen to.
53:58
And holy smokes, I didn't know he got down like that.
54:01
You know, just, yeah, it's just some of that stuff got lost on
54:05
me and some it's, it's never too late to discover it.
54:09
No, and you know, you let, if you like modern stuff, just
54:11
always go back to the roots of it and see what was up, see why
54:14
it got to be where it was at. Man, you go back, listen to like
54:16
that stuff and Fats Domino and Little Richard and Ray early Ray
54:20
Charles records and man, you'll know where it all came from.
54:24
And it's man, some of that stuff's still good today.
54:26
I say, I say a lot of young artists and I know they they do
54:29
it. Songwriters do it too.
54:30
You go find an old B side of one of those and you just kind of
54:33
change it up a little bit and there's your new song because
54:35
man, it's just a there's a lot of gold out there to go find.
54:38
I mean, it's, it's there and, and specifically for what you
54:42
like and what resonates with what kind of stuff you'd like to
54:44
hear, you know? No doubt, no doubt.
54:48
We'll let Jr. let's, let's, let's wrap this show up with a
54:52
little quick Tigs blitz, a little fun couple questions.
54:57
We'll hit you with five of them. And, and, and just rapid fire.
55:02
Tell me what you think #1 Here you go.
55:05
Cornbread or biscuits? What hits harder with a good
55:08
plate? Cornbread.
55:12
Let me, let me. I agree.
55:15
I agree. What kind of cornbread?
55:17
Does the cornbread have any sugar in it?
55:20
No. Perfect for buttermilk.
55:22
Cornbread Buttermilk cornbread preferably.
55:25
For me, cornbread muffin. Just a slice of cornbread, like
55:29
a pie shape or a square. But I I don't hate Jiffy corn.
55:35
We call it, I always just call it Jiffy cornbread, the sweet
55:38
cornbread, Correct. Yeah, because it's usually Jiffy
55:40
brand was the one, but we barely ever did that for certain stuff.
55:43
But I like it. It's good.
55:44
It's kind of sweet. It's kind of like a dessert
55:45
thing with certain. Stuff I don't like.
55:49
I don't want jiffy cornbread with chicken and dumplings, you
55:54
know what I mean? I want buttermilk cornbread with
55:56
chicken. I basically just want Jiffy
55:58
cornbread with a little butter for dessert basically.
56:01
Or if I had to, if I had peas and I didn't have anything else.
56:04
Yeah, I will eat a little bit, but I hope it's not too sweet.
56:07
And as far as the cornbread, yeah, crackling in it, maybe
56:10
take it up a notch or Mexican cornbread, but I don't like it
56:13
too spicy. So a little extra corn in there
56:15
for me is good. But I do love a good biscuit
56:18
too. Now I'm not knocking a biscuit,
56:19
all forms of biscuits are delicious.
56:22
But I always like a biscuit is more of a breakfast thing.
56:25
I'd rather do biscuits for breakfast.
56:27
And if I'm going to do a biscuit, I can do a savory
56:30
biscuit, you know, additional bacon, egg and cheese or sausage
56:33
and biscuit or a Chick-fil-A biscuit is fantastic.
56:38
But just a biscuit with some Jelly or some preserves of some
56:42
sort, like my grandmother's plum fig preserves or something like
56:48
that she used to make or strawberry fig preserves on a
56:51
biscuit. So good.
56:54
But if I'm eating turnip greens, collard greens, mustard greens,
56:59
beans, peas, anything like that, I want cornbread.
57:05
And I can't even like chicken and dumplings, anything like
57:08
that. Anything really.
57:09
It's good to have that piece of cornbread because using it as a
57:11
pusher to go up against your fork or your spoon.
57:14
That's right. And then when you're done with
57:16
your peas, you SOP it up in there good.
57:18
Or your green, Yeah. And it's kind of rough texture
57:22
too, and it holds together more than a biscuit, so you can kind
57:24
of rub your fingers on a little bit to kind of wipe them off on
57:27
your cornbread using it for that too.
57:30
I love cornbread now. I do too, bro.
57:32
Offshoot of cornbread being a hush puppy is is strong too,
57:37
buddy. I love some hush puppies.
57:38
I can live on them. I do too man, my my good buddy
57:42
taught me how to make his hush puppies.
57:45
Basically uses Jiffy cornbread mix and like cream of corn, like
57:50
1/2 a can of cream of corn and whatever else you're supposed to
57:53
put in the Jiffy mix. Maybe there's an egg or
57:56
something, I can't remember. You whip that up, put some
57:59
jalapenos in it if you want to or whatever, and then just.
58:02
Deep fry, whatever. Yeah, it's just silly.
58:06
Just silly. But I like it.
58:07
Butter fish. Fry, yeah.
58:09
But at a fish fry, fried fish and hush puppies and hand cut
58:15
French fries in A and a big fryer outside somewhere, it's
58:19
just good. Yeah, it really is.
58:22
Brown paper sacks with some newspaper and paper towels in
58:26
the bottom. Soak it up.
58:27
Perfect question. I'll #2 question what's your
58:31
favorite type of fried fish? That's tough.
58:39
It is tough, especially you live in Gulf Shores, AL.
58:43
Saltwater. I like grouper.
58:45
I mean I like all of it really, but grouper bites are pretty
58:48
traditional. Down here are catfish if
58:50
freshwater catfish Nuggets are hard to beat.
58:52
Catfish strips. But like crappie.
58:58
Y'all call them sakelay. Yeah, we sakelay all day.
59:01
Yeah, crappie. Probably.
59:02
Probably crappie. Really.
59:04
Yeah, it's my, that and. It's but if it's clean, good.
59:08
Speckled trees Pretty dad gum good.
59:10
Yeah, too. Yeah, Oh yeah, 100% and bass and
59:14
and and brim everything really. Yeah.
59:17
And good and good catfish you catch in a like on a lake that's
59:21
got moving water, like the lake I grew up on.
59:23
I mean, they're still pond, get a little muddy, get a little
59:25
gritty sometimes. But a good, not a huge catfish,
59:29
but a nice mature catfish out of a good clean lake.
59:32
Those are good. But yeah, crappie or sacalet as
59:34
y'all call them in Louisiana. That's probably my freshwater
59:38
then probably grouper or red fish I.
59:42
Agree, I think. I think.
59:43
A lot of people in Louisiana don't like red fish.
59:45
I'm like, I love red fish. Oh dude I love I love red fish,
59:48
especially on the half shell. Most people who don't like
59:51
somethings because they're over over saturated with it.
59:55
Like I don't even like those because you're spoiled and you
59:57
can get them all the time. If you live somewhere you can
59:59
never get it, you'd love it. You would love it.
1:00:01
I love a good on the half shell redfish and there's not a there
1:00:04
aren't many fish that are more fun to catch than a than a Yes,
1:00:09
8 to 10 LB redfish. Just hold the hell on and have
1:00:13
fun. Yeah, I love it.
1:00:15
Dude, what's? The What's the red sauce thing?
1:00:17
The soup kind of thing. They make redfish I.
1:00:20
Like, like red cubion. Cubion.
1:00:23
Yeah, yeah, my neighbor makes a good one.
1:00:25
We've been trying to convince her to make it it once it gets
1:00:28
cool, I know she's going to make it Just it's just a though you a
1:00:32
lot of times they use catfish or catfish poo Beyond it's just a
1:00:36
red gravy with fish. It's just, you know, cooked
1:00:40
down. For yeah, it's kind of old
1:00:41
school, kind of got that old world vibe.
1:00:45
Yeah, Somebody at home will make some while we're there at some
1:00:48
point. I know Charisse's cousin Jenny
1:00:50
has made it a few times. And then and a friend, Dave
1:00:52
Palmisano, has made it a couple times.
1:00:55
I've had. I'm like, and you know, me, I, I
1:00:57
get giddy over that stuff because I didn't have it and I'm
1:00:59
excited. I like, try new things and man,
1:01:01
I'm all about it. Flavour Town, bring it.
1:01:04
Absolutely, absolutely. We'll stop with this one.
1:01:09
This will be our last question because I think this will be a
1:01:12
fun one. What's the dumbest thing
1:01:15
someone's argued with you about online?
1:01:19
Yeah, I know that you've seen some stuff.
1:01:22
Well. I try to avoid all that and kill
1:01:25
them with kindness and just don't engage.
1:01:29
Yeah, I really don't argue with people on here.
1:01:31
I don't, I don't, I don't either.
1:01:32
I'm maybe it's a better question.
1:01:34
What's 1 of the dumbest things you've seen someone say
1:01:38
recently? You know.
1:01:41
Oh man, recently, hell, just a a a ton of stupidity on
1:01:45
everybody's part, everybody fighting and arguing and being
1:01:48
happy that somebody died and not happy that somebody else died,
1:01:51
when in reality everybody's sad that anybody dies.
1:01:56
How about that right about We're all children of God, We're all
1:01:59
sad if anyone does. No one should die of correct
1:02:02
unnatural causes. Especially defending something
1:02:05
that they believe in and it's freedom of speech.
1:02:08
You can't do that. I think we all know who we're.
1:02:11
Talking about and then or and kids and and everybody that's
1:02:15
what I'm saying nobody's happy anyone get no one should be
1:02:18
happy with in I don't think anyone's happy if anyone gets
1:02:20
killed I I no rational reasonable person and that's
1:02:23
what most of America is not the people you see on TV.
1:02:27
Most of America is rational and reasonable people that won't
1:02:31
that's a fact civil order peace, happiness, provide for their
1:02:36
families, treat everybody how you want to be treated.
1:02:40
I I don't have any problems with anybody.
1:02:42
I don't mess with I don't I'm not nobody's let's see all these
1:02:44
divisive things I'm like I don't care I'm not in in any of these
1:02:49
not that decisive. I don't care somebody else does
1:02:51
good knock yourself out, but man it's crazy.
1:02:55
Well, I would say recently just that people just saying things
1:02:59
that just are. So I don't know if they're like,
1:03:04
they think people are that evil or are they evil I.
1:03:06
Don't know if it's all real people, Jr.
1:03:09
That's some of these shots, yeah, but even I really know.
1:03:12
Stuff they're saying I'm like, man, yeah, well, even people I
1:03:16
know say and stuff and I'm like, really?
1:03:17
And I don't unfriend people if they say something they don't
1:03:19
like. No, somebody I know how to hit
1:03:21
them like I should be friends. I.
1:03:22
Met this person once. I shouldn't be friends with them
1:03:24
anyway. But usually I just think I'm
1:03:30
like, man, I'm just not that hard on either thing.
1:03:33
I'm just like, I think I'm just good.
1:03:36
Like, treat everybody you want to be treated.
1:03:38
No one should be happy if anything bad happens.
1:03:40
We know the right between good and evil and bad.
1:03:41
Don't. Nobody likes bad.
1:03:43
I don't. Yeah, you know.
1:03:46
No, exactly, exactly. I'm going to eventually do a
1:03:50
whole show on some of the crazy comments that I've received or
1:03:54
that we have received on content that's on on Tig's pits.
1:03:59
It's you know, there's it's just it's crazy nothing, nothing that
1:04:04
I don't have anything that stands out to me except for the
1:04:07
only thing that bothered me is somebody It didn't I don't know
1:04:11
why it even bothered me. I don't it doesn't bother me,
1:04:14
but it's just like, wow. That was the take is I talked to
1:04:18
one of the this girl from New York from Buffalo came to LSU to
1:04:22
tailgate. It's had hundreds of thousands
1:04:24
of views or whatever. But I know when one of these
1:04:27
videos is getting at the end of its life cycle, that's when the
1:04:30
negative people start coming in. I just ignore it.
1:04:33
I don't ever engage either. But she said, why do men feel
1:04:37
like they have to always touch women?
1:04:40
Because in the interview. And I was like, what is she
1:04:42
talking about? And then in the interview, I see
1:04:45
I put my hand on her shoulder. I can explain.
1:04:48
Not that I have to because I just did.
1:04:50
You couldn't hear out there, lady.
1:04:53
You couldn't hear. I put my hand on her shoulder
1:04:56
because I was actually leaning my ear in so I could hear her.
1:05:00
That's why I didn't. Maybe I just, you're not
1:05:02
supposed to touch somebody, but that's what happened.
1:05:05
I touched her and I was kind of leaning in to to hear because
1:05:09
I'm about half deaf due to my own accord.
1:05:12
And and if you're at our tailgate and you walk in front
1:05:15
of those speakers, you'll be deaf too, all day long.
1:05:18
But anyhow, but I don't know why that.
1:05:20
I don't know why that bothered me, but it did it.
1:05:23
Just did. Like whatever, lady.
1:05:27
Yeah. And I'm thinking why of all the
1:05:28
things you've got to worry about today, that's what it kills me a
1:05:31
lot of times. I'm thinking of all are you, do
1:05:33
you have that much free time? It goes back to the day off
1:05:35
thing. I'm like, I've got so many
1:05:36
things I want to try to get accomplished every day that
1:05:40
spending any amount of time on something that doesn't
1:05:44
positively impact my life, it's. Pointless.
1:05:47
It's pointless. Right.
1:05:49
Unless it's for knowledge or gain some wisdom or something
1:05:54
along those lines. Just all I can say is in the
1:05:57
most southern way is bless their heart, bless or just bless
1:06:02
their. Heart life is good down here in
1:06:05
The Dirty South. Y'all come see us come vacation
1:06:08
