The crew dives into topics ranging from jury duty mishaps and lightning strikes to the impact of a massive new local datacenter, peppering every subject with their trademark humor and real-talk reflections.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Jury Duty Misadventures

• Martin’s Jury Duty: Martin explains he had to report for jury duty but was quickly dismissed, joking that he was "facially profiled" and nobody wanted him on the jury ([00:18]).
• Compensation for Jury Duty: The crew debates whether Martin should seek his meager pay for attending jury selection. Jace Robertson’s "pettiness" is referenced as motivation for pursuing every nickel ([03:30]).
  • Quote: “I’m just petty enough Jace Robertson style to where I’d be like every nickel you owe me for inconveniencing me… I will get.” – John-David ([03:30])
• The Ideal Jury Case: The guys discuss what type of case they’d want to sit on, with a preference for something more exciting than “worthless checks” ([04:41]).

---

2. Si as a TV Judge?

• Debate on TV Judges: The crew jokes about whether Si Robertson or any of them could serve as a judge. Si insists he’d be a good judge “short and sweet,” but is reminded you need a law degree ([09:02], [10:03]).
  • Quote: “I could be a good judge because hey…when in doubt…” – Si ([09:02])
• Arbitration vs Real Court: Judge Judy and Steve Harvey come up, clarifying that TV judges are real arbitrators, not actual court judges ([17:21]), leading to jokes about launching a “Judge Si Robertson” reality show:
  • Quote: “I think Judge Cy Robertson television program would do numbers at 11 o’clock in the middle of the day in hospital waiting rooms.” – John-David ([19:47])

---

3. Musical Interlude and Lightning Strikes

• Country Music & The World Cup: John-David credits the World Cup for turning him back onto country music, specifically “Choosing Texas” ([23:14]).
• Lightning Strikes Go Viral: Discussion shifts to listeners emailing their lightning strike stories following a recent episode ([24:13]). Most memorable is a listener who witnessed 40 cows simultaneously collapse when lightning struck the silo next to the dairy barn ([27:08]).
  • Quote: “Can you imagine being in somewhere where 40 cows all of the sudden just dropped…and not if I had my hands on their nipples.” – John-David ([27:53])

4. Milking Cows (and Buying Everything Online)

• Dairy Farm Technologies: The guys talk about how milking machines work, their cost, and how dairy farming has modernized ([29:01]–[32:12]).
• Prefab & Tiny Homes: From cow-milking machines, they veer off into discovering prefab houses sold on Walmart and Amazon, laughing about the idea of buying a home online and the logistics of assembling one ([35:55], [36:18]).
  • Quote: “You can buy a house today. There’s only three left in stock, so order now.” – John-David ([36:18])

5. Justin Martin and the Datacenter Debate

The Issue:

• Datacenter Expansion: The conversation turns to a new massive datacenter being constructed locally, which doubled in size and is driving up land prices ([39:49]).
• Economic Impact: The guys acknowledge good jobs and economic development but highlight increasing land costs and infrastructure concerns ([40:07]).
  • Quote: “Land around here, you try to buy land in Louisiana… you fix a payout your rear end just because of that data center.” – Si ([40:07])
• Duck Hunting Conflict: Martin reveals the “proposed power line” for the datacenter will cut through their hunting ground, worrying about the impact on ducks and aesthetics ([45:56], [46:02]).
  • Quote: “The proposed power line… gonna cut right across the corner of our duck hole.” – Martin ([46:02])
• Power Needs & Renewable Energy: The alleged rationale for local solar/wind farms is discussed, with the group suspecting advance knowledge about the datacenter’s energy demands ([47:34]).
• Skepticism About Utilities’ Land Choices: The hosts express frustration that utilities opt to cross private hunting land rather than state-owned land nearby ([47:02]).
  • Quote: “You would think they would use their own land instead of having to try to pay the private land owners…” – Martin ([47:11])

---

6. Wild Tech and Unusual Solutions

• Capturing Lightning: Spiraling from the datacenter’s power needs, the conversation devolves into whether lightning could be “bottled” for electricity ([49:33]–[54:44]).
  • Quote: “Why can’t we get lightning in a bottle?” – Martin ([49:57])
  • Quote: “Electricity ain’t nothing but small lightning.” – Si ([55:00])
• Elon Musk Challenge: The crew jokingly invites Elon Musk onto the show to explain why lightning can’t be captured and stored ([54:07]).

---

7. Africa, Riding Zebras, and Judgment Day

• Si’s Wild Animal Transportation Theory: Si questions why no one rides zebras in Africa, prompting a hilarious math-free debate and a discussion about the “untrainability” of zebras and elephants ([51:19]–[53:14]).
  • Quote: “That’s like with the Africans… Instead of walking, why don’t they ride zebras? They got plenty of zebras in Africa.” – Si ([51:19])
• Spiritual Reflection: The episode closes with a parallel between lightning and Judgment Day, quoting Matthew 24:27 and urging listeners to be spiritually prepared ([55:45]).
  • Quote: “For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the son of man.” – John-David ([56:00])

Overall Tone & Takeaway

Full of southern wit and good-natured jabs, this episode is classic Duck Call Room: wide-ranging, funny, slightly irreverent, and surprisingly insightful about community change, progress, and tradition. The datacenter debate is a clear-through line, but what shines brightest is the group’s ability to take any topic – whether goofy or profound – and lead it into laughter, wisdom, or both.

End Note:
“You ain’t stopping progress. Might as well hop on… let’s go fishing and charge people for the electricity.” – Si ([55:36])

Transcript

[A]

I was really looking forward to something today, by the way. I was gonna say, welcome back to the duck call room. We're so glad to have you. Martin's not here because he has jury duty.

[B]

But I made it.

[A]

But he made it.

[C]

I didn't get picked.

[A]

You got kicked out of the jury that fast?

[B]

You have to go sit there and not for long.

[A]

You'd be terrible at Survivor if you didn't even make it to the jury.

[D]

How many questions asked you before they

[C]

said, I think I was facially profiled.

[A]

You were profiled?

[C]

I think they looked at me and said, nah. Why we don't. Neither side wanted to hear what I had to say, apparently, because we.

[A]

Today we're filming yesterday, me, you and Hunter on our group tech said, what do we do if Martin is stuck in jury duty? And I said, the show must go on.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[C]

And here I am. I didn't make it.

[A]

Had a good feeling about this.

[D]

Instead of saying this, he said, no.

[A]

What did he do?

[D]

Call him.

[C]

Never made it that far. That's what I'm saying. I don't. I have no clue.

[A]

So you went.

[C]

I went.

[A]

And you walked in and they pulled.

[C]

They, like, had us separated.

[D]

Profile. Oh, I was pro.

[C]

They were like, y'.

[D]

All. They were profiling.

[A]

How did they separate?

[C]

You're good for the week.

[B]

I don't know.

[C]

They just told me which one to go in, like a room.

[A]

They looked at you.

[C]

I think they had it by name. You have more. Little name tag.

[A]

You had a name tag?

[C]

Well, yeah. You go in a courthouse now, they take your picture. They do everything you ain't they keeping a record.

[D]

You're like a criminal.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

I gotta have you on film.

[C]

But I didn't get a parking ticket. It's crazy. I parked in a parking spot, didn't get a parking ticket.

[D]

I did. $250 worth.

[B]

They go into a court.

[C]

Hey, yeah, he tried to do jury.

[D]

If someone reports for duty, jury dirty. You should have a spot for him park to park. That's a bunch of bull.

[A]

Hey, hold on, hold on. Did you get paid?

[B]

You only get paid if you get paid.

[C]

I wasn't there long enough. You got to make it a full day to get.

[A]

Oh, you took time out of your day.

[C]

Look, I'm not there. I don't need my $17.

[D]

22.

[A]

I'm about to cause a ruckus and fight for your 1722.

[C]

Hey, tell you what. You can keep it if you get it.

[A]

Don't tear me to have it.

[C]

You can Pretend to be me. You can do whatever you need to do. How much do you bucks a day?

[B]

Ain't it paid for?

[A]

Where's your $50?

[C]

I didn't spend a whole day. I don't want to pay myself anyway. Is my tax money doing all this per day?

[A]

Do you get paid for jury?

[D]

I'm surprised there ain't a whole bunch of people volunteering to do it. Since we get paid $50 a day

[A]

you should have received a small attendance fee and mileage for reporting to jury duty. Even if you're not selected, Martin, you are entitled to $27.

[C]

I'm good. I tell you what.

[A]

Going to let the government.

[C]

Y' all are listening to this.

[A]

They're not.

[C]

Keep it. We're good. Hey, if you want to throw me a bone towards a tax credit.

[B]

Yeah. Take that pothole over.

[C]

Yeah. Dump an extra load of gravel out on the road at my mama's house. You know I ain't worried about it.

[D]

So make some potholes.

[C]

The point is is I'm not there. That's the biggest.

[A]

I didn't know you could get mileage too. See, I'm just petty enough Jace Robertson style to where I'd be like every nickel you owe me for inconvenience in me. I'm. I'm entitled to and I will get. And I'm going to call you about.

[C]

I'm going to imagine why we're going broke.

[A]

I'm going to spend more time fighting for this than it's worth.

[B]

It shouldn't be inconvenient.

[C]

You should run for office.

[D]

No.

[C]

If you're that petty.

[B]

No, he's. If he thinks Jerry duties are inconvenienced you he wouldn't run for politics.

[A]

There's places I don't belong. Corporate America. Number one of any political office.

[C]

Number two.

[B]

The honey holes are inconvenient.

[C]

Does it?

[B]

They don't show up till 12.

[C]

Huh. Interesting.

[A]

I have video evidence of me walking in at 9:06 today.

[B]

906. What time's that open? Doesn't matter.

[A]

Doesn't matter. That's not what time I'm supposed to be there.

[C]

It'll be there when it closes.

[D]

I'll be.

[A]

I will be there at 6:01.

[D]

That's right.

[A]

Maybe I'll be there at six even.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

6:00 clock and 22 seconds. I'm trying to be gone.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

That doubt there.

[C]

Yeah. No, I'm just glad not be there. I mean I do want to.

[A]

I'm glad.

[C]

I'd love to be on a Jury one day.

[A]

What?

[C]

But I want it to be for something cool.

[B]

I would do like I now not

[C]

for somebody like issuing worthless checks or something. Somebody says they're not guilty.

[A]

Like jury duty reminds me of like, remember when we had meetings up here?

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

And they're like, why don't you just email me that by.

[C]

The difference is there's actually something decided in that.

[B]

This one. Yeah.

[A]

Yeah. But then they. They probably have meetings about. Meetings about me.

[C]

Yeah, probably.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

And most of them, I would be a jury's worst nightmare because he'd be a hung.

[B]

No, no.

[A]

Hey, could you imagine me and Sigh sitting on the same jury?

[D]

Well, no, no, no, no. Here's what it was. I. Where I would go and we'll just a pain in the but prove it to me.

[A]

Amen.

[D]

You have got to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt.

[C]

Reasonable doubt.

[D]

A reasonable doubt.

[A]

That's a shadow of a day.

[D]

Most of them, you know, I watched the course. I didn't do it like with y'. All One old juice.

[C]

The juice is loose, baby.

[D]

Hey, the juice is loose if the glove don't. If they asked a bunch of stupid questions. And, hey, I learned that at a very early age. If you don't want to hear the answer, don't ask the question.

[C]

Yeah. And if the glove goes off, when

[D]

they pulled out the glove and said, sir, will you put this on? And he went, yeah. It was stupid because it was wet with blood, and anytime leather gets wet, it's gonna shrink. Well, it ain't gonna fit.

[B]

No.

[D]

I already knew that. Begin with. I said, that's one stupid move you made there, counselor. You handed the man a glove that. Hey, it ain't gonna fit.

[B]

It ain't gonna fit no hell. And so you can barely pay it dry.

[D]

Oh, no. Yeah, it'll barely go on dry. But then you get blood on it and let it dry. Hold on. It shrank.

[B]

And a partridge and a pear.

[D]

What I liked about that, though. Look, they brought up one point, okay? The next door neighbor seen three dudes run out the back gate.

[C]

Thigh loves the underdog.

[D]

Oh, look. And it. Hey, they mentioned that one time, but there was no class. Well, my point would have been how I said, wait a minute. That three. Three people were seen leaving the scene of the crime, and y' all hadn't asked another question concerning them.

[C]

How come only one of them's here?

[D]

You know? I said, how come he's here?

[C]

His other two sounds.

[D]

I said, y' all followed him for two days in a. In a Mustang in some kind of vehicle.

[C]

White Bronco.

[D]

Yeah, yeah, white Bronco, y'. All. The cops followed him for two days. Bronco was before they decided to pull him over and arrest him.

[B]

He wasn't even going fast trying to get.

[D]

Oh, hey, what speed and didn't break the law. Nothing.

[B]

Yo, hey, them are ducks in a row right there.

[C]

They get behind you with them lights on. If you don't stop, that's breaking the law.

[D]

And they should have pulled him over.

[C]

Well they tried.

[A]

Well they tried. In order to pull someone over, they must pull over.

[D]

Hey, there's always, always, always different.

[A]

To be fair, they did spike my grandmother.

[D]

Hey, if I'm a cop, I pull my lights on you on a Wednesday night. No, no. And I put my lights on you

[C]

and you OJ let's just run that a while.

[D]

Hey, the next thing you gonna hear bye because I'm gonna shoot your front tire out.

[B]

Which one?

[D]

Huh? This one's the easiest one to shoot. And hey, if you don't. If I don't pull. If you don't pull over there hanging

[C]

out the window with a revolver.

[D]

Yeah, I get the other three. Oh, it'll be easy. Just pull up. Shoot the tire.

[A]

Everybody that has crazy things.

[B]

Yeah but the tire's moving.

[A]

Opinions on cops size like oh no, I'd just shoot the moving tire.

[D]

Oh, I would, I would hide. Hey, hey.

[B]

I believe the tire is made out of rubber. It just bounce off.

[A]

Be scary. You better get a big enough bull.

[D]

No, it would, it would. I I could not work in in law enforcement.

[C]

You don't say.

[A]

I figure you'd make a great police officer.

[C]

No, I would ty needs to run for judge. No, like don't can't anybody be a judge now.

I'm going to say something out loud. TV judges. I don't think those are real courts of law.

[B]

I didn't talk to him.

[D]

What are you talking about?

[C]

Really?

[D]

Oh, no. Hey.

[C]

One Judge Judy. May somebody pay something.

[D]

Made it when he hit that gavel. You are. They put him in the pants on.

[A]

I'm just gonna say something to the three men that were on reality TV far more than me.

[C]

Sometimes I felt like I was lied to then.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

This is live tv.

[A]

And Willie bought a vineyard.

[D]

Okay, you don't believe the stuff.

[C]

And he had a helicopter.

[D]

You don't believe the stuff you see on tv. Come on.

[C]

I really do.

[A]

Okay. Okay.

[C]

I'm looking it up for Judge Judy's rulings. What's the word I'm looking for here?

[A]

Not real.

[B]

Stand up in a court of law.

[D]

Yeah, yeah.

[B]

They make them pay.

[D]

That's it. All right.

[A]

Y' all ready to be made?

[D]

The bailiff.

[B]

Don't y', all, like, Do.

[A]

I'm just making. I'm trying to make sure you're okay with it. I don't want to hurt your feelings. No, Judge Steve Harvey is not a real court of law.

[C]

Okay?

[A]

It is a reality courtroom comedy show that relies on arbitration.

[B]

I thought everybody Knew Steve Harvey is

[A]

not a lawyer or judge, and he does not hold any.

[B]

What about Judge Judy?

[A]

All right, Judge Judy, are you ready?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

The Judge Judy show is not a real court, but rather a form of binding arbitration.

[B]

That's what I'm talking about.

[A]

Whether Judge Judith Shingling was a real sitting family starting the show. Oh, she was a real judge.

[B]

Well, yeah. I told you, once a judge, always a judge.

[A]

But she is. The people going in sign up for arbitrator.

[D]

Always a Marine, huh?

[B]

Yeah. Say there.

[C]

So she's an arbitrator.

[A]

The cases and people involved are real.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

But to participate, both parties must sign a legally binding arbitration agreement.

[D]

But the judge ain't real.

[A]

She's a real arbitrator.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

So people agree to go with what she says for their moment on tv. Which means what the two guys on Wedding Crash.

[D]

Why didn't I. Hold it, hold it. Look up the word arbitrator, right?

[B]

Oh, yeah. Here we go. Here we go.

[A]

Which means we could technically do that with Judge Cy Robertson on the podcast. An arbitrator is a third party chosen by disputing parties to resolve a conflict outside.

[D]

I want the judge.

[C]

We should.

[D]

I was a judge.

[C]

I've got the future of this.

[D]

I was a judge and I got.

[B]

I'm going to give you permission to be an arbitrator.

[D]

I got. Throughout a court by higher judge.

[A]

That's true. Acting as a private judge, they review evidence, evaluate arguments and render a final legally binding.

[D]

How do you say I took them to court? I won.

[B]

This guy. Now he can't get thrown at.

[D]

I won that case. I took him to court and I won it.

[A]

Can anyone.

[D]

But a higher judge threw me out of court?

[A]

Yes. Almost anyone can serve as an arbitrator as long as the disputing parties agree to let them decide the case.

[D]

And then when they decide the case, what are they doing?

[C]

It's final.

[D]

They make a brutal. They make a ruling. And when the ruling is given out, it's final.

[C]

Can you imagine how hard he go hit that gave him.

[D]

Oh, wait, I'd bust that thing. They'd have to make me one out of steel.

[A]

I think we can do this.

[D]

And I'd break.

[B]

I want to do it.

[D]

I would break the desk then.

[A]

Do we have anybody that we know that is currently in a disagreement with another human?

[C]

No, but I've been on reality tv. We can come up with a good one. And we can. We can make them sign a contract.

[A]

I feel like Hunter owes me a lot of money. I think Judge Cy Robertson television program Would do numbers at 11 o' clock in the middle of the day in hospital waiting rooms.

[D]

No. The first thing would happen was I'd say, okay, one hour adjournment.

[B]

You had to go take a nap.

[C]

I'd take a nap. Recess.

[D]

Recess. It really would be an hour. One hour.

[C]

He'd kill it at the senior home.

[A]

It would be. It would be a hysterical show.

[C]

It really would.

[A]

Because everyone would end with, all right, now, this is it. It's over. Court adjourned. I'm going to take a nap.

[C]

Dismissed. You're an idiot.

[D]

You're an idiot. Get out of here.

[A]

I'm excited. Ella Langley just emailed me who did your Elfella. So it turns out I am. I just needed a bunch of Europeans to come to America and teach me the soccer. And I bought the shirt.

[C]

The Ella Fellowshirt.

[A]

Yeah. But I had it delivered to the beach because that's where I was going to be. No, that shirt has been in every corner of Florida imaginable because our condo didn't have a mailbox.

[C]

Oh.

[A]

But they just emailed me and said they're going to send one to Louisiana.

[D]

Oh, you didn't get your shirt.

[A]

Nope. I don't have a lfella shirt. Although I am one now because remember, you said it on the podcast with Brittany and I didn't even know what you meant. Yeah, I'm l. But then them Europeans.

[B]

I don't know what that shirt.

[A]

I got the shirt.

[B]

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Oh, now there's a series in Texas. I'm gonna have to check that out.

[A]

That's that guy that owns the tackle.

[C]

Oh, you can play.

[A]

Ain't hard. I can sing it.

[B]

I can't sing with the rip.

[A]

Yeah, you can.

[C]

You can barely talk.

[B]

I know it's good.

[A]

Also, I have a lot of questions.

[B]

Oh, it's got an elf in it. Chord. Oh, it's a bar chord.

[C]

Those are pretty clean.

[B]

But I can't hardly because this finger's broke. See how it goes up instead of comes down?

[D]

What?

[B]

So it mutes strings. So I have to. I mean, I can play the. I can cheat her if it.

[A]

You know, also who got struck by lightning because our emails are full lightning strike stories and I don't know what they're talking about. All right, I missed one episode and y'.

[C]

All.

[A]

Y' all confused me.

[C]

What happened?

[B]

Oh, capo on the first fret, too.

[A]

Everybody in the emails is just sending in lightning strike stories and I missed something somewhere.

[B]

Tone down.

[D]

That was for when Alan got struck by lightning.

[A]

Al's been struck by lightning.

[C]

Hardwire fans.

[D]

We was out on the land. He's leaning against a fence post that's got barbed wire on it. Barbed lightning strikes about 500 yards away and hits the barbed wire and it flip out off of that fence post. Now, he wasn't touching no muzzle, but he was leaning against the fence pole and it flipped him like that buffalo did that guy in Colorado.

[C]

Now, see, this whole time, I'm thinking the fence post was a T post. It was just an old wooden post.

[D]

No, no, it was just an old wooden post.

[C]

Yeah, see, I was thinking barbed wire and T post, you know, because they

[D]

go handling lightning running through the barbed wire. Wire flipped him away.

[C]

That's tight.

[A]

That's not tight. It's terrible.

[C]

It is if you're not.

[D]

Hey, look, he wasn't. He wasn't. You know, it took him a while back, 10 minutes to clear his head and realize what had happened and where he was.

[C]

Is that when he drew his name on his forearm? Man, it's two letters. I don't know how you ever get confused.

[A]

Anyway, I've always wanted to just put J.D. right here.

[C]

Ow.

[A]

It's even, like, where he could write it easily.

[C]

Yeah. Ow.

[B]

Anyway, he was saying, oh, Ow.

[D]

Ow. I should have been unashamed. Podcast for today.

[C]

I'm good.

[D]

It was good. Oh, it was really good. I was on it, but it was. It was good.

[C]

Is that why it was good?

[D]

No, no, no. You were on Jason, Al, Gordon and me.

[A]

Gordon.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

And someone with a big head was really. With a larger head.

[D]

No, Gordon Gord confessed he has problems. I confessed I had some problem.

[C]

What's your problem?

[B]

I might have got a cart.

[D]

No. So it was really good. It really was.

[C]

I don't need no problem. I got my own list.

[D]

Yeah, we was in the book of James.

[B]

Oh, golly.

[D]

Wow.

[C]

Oh, that.

[D]

It was a really.

[C]

You think anybody called him Jimmy back?

[D]

It was very profound.

[A]

For sure. They might have called him as from Columbia. So y' all were apparently telling lightning strike stories and got the fans all jazzed.

[C]

Oh, yeah. I wanted to know if anybody been struck before for.

[A]

I got you the best one.

[D]

Okay.

[A]

I've perused the emails.

[C]

There have been a bunch of them struck by lightning.

[A]

Well, they all have lightning strike stories.

[C]

Oh, I was going to say how.

[A]

I don't think I've heard anybody.

[D]

I want to hear the one that he's got on the screen.

[B]

The one that they got away.

[D]

Lightning. No, lightning while milking cows. Lightning strikes while milking A cow.

[A]

All right. My friend Josh Horns. Hello, Josh from Perry County, Pennsylvania. I don't know which one that is

[D]

country, but Perry cow country.

[A]

He worked on a dairy farm there.

[D]

Yep. Dairy. Carol.

[A]

One evening, they were milking and lightning struck the silo, which was about 100 yards from where we milk in the Thai stall barn. I don't know what any of these things.

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

Every hookup in the barn.

[D]

Milk and cow done what?

[A]

Every cow in the barn dropped 40

[D]

of them when the lightning hit.

[A]

The lightning hit, the cow's legs went boop. Like they tore their ACLs and all of them hit the floor.

[B]

They were just trying to get low.

[A]

Can you imagine being in somewhere where 40 cows all of a sudden just

[C]

dropped and not if I had my hands on their nipples.

[D]

No, no, no.

[B]

They got the automatic stuff now.

[D]

No, no, I got your things in there. Because I had a cousin, I did that. And when we visited them, you know, they had the milk.

[B]

I know. I used to go. We had a dairy farm, my uncle did. And that milk was that fresh milk. You could put your finger on top of the glass and it was just like. It was cream. Oh, so it was so good.

[A]

I like my milk ultra processed, it

[B]

was, and with chocolate in it.

[D]

Oh, I've seen. I've seen my cousin. He'd be milking one and just into his mouth.

[B]

Oh, it's good.

[D]

Oh, no, absolutely not. He'll drink. He'd probably drink two glass fulls. Really? Yeah.

[C]

No, no.

[D]

Right out of those little cows.

[C]

Straight from the source.

[D]

Some of them cows, look. Some of them cows, they was that big around

[C]

their utter.

[D]

For them. Yeah, for the bed. There's that big round. They barely could. They barely could even move their leg.

[B]

Yeah, you'd think how they walk.

[D]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[A]

Uncomfortable.

[B]

Was it hosting? Hosting.

[C]

That's incredible.

[B]

Yeah, that's a big cow. Too long. Big bodied. Yeah, Big frame cow.

[D]

Huge. Thanks.

[A]

I want to know if Josh was. Was actually milking the cow, if her

[B]

machine was probably machine.

[C]

Well, see, Pennsylvania, though, he could be up here. He could be up there in Amish country.

[B]

Yeah, well, there's machines. Because if it's 40, it's a machine.

[A]

That's his son. Now. He did attach a picture of his son with his first deer from this year.

[D]

They got a thing.

[C]

Congratulations.

[A]

Way to go, Samuel.

[B]

Up as long as they've got.

[D]

Look, they've got a trough that's got feed in it. And the cow, they just turn.

[B]

That's awesome.

[D]

Well, they just walk in and when they walk, I walk the back strap and they shut. It's got a thing that goes around their neck and that come in as you hook.

[C]

That seems like the wrong end.

[D]

No, no. Then I just come in and hook the milking sheet machines up on them.

[C]

Oh. So they just.

[D]

I don't know what. I don't know what those milking machines cost, but, hey, like, they'll have 40 in the barn at one time, and 40 of them are being milked.

[B]

Yeah. Really? Yeah.

[D]

Expensive. Expensive. Yeah.

[A]

How much does a cow milking machine cost? Holy moly.

[C]

How you Google this one, buddy?

[D]

Yeah. Cause you told me if that's. Yeah.

[A]

Oh, a single cow.

[C]

Same action could.

[A]

It ain't too bad if all you got is one cow.

[D]

Yeah. But hey, you could get it at a time.

[A]

Oh, this has got a one star rating probably from this cow. It looks terrified.

[C]

What in the. What in the bootleg Chick Fil. A commercial going on here. Where's the Garvey electric cow milking machine?

[A]

All right, one star. Oh, yeah, baby. You know I love a good.

[C]

Hey, hey.

[A]

Put that back.

[C]

Put that back. It's the review. Do not buy worst machine.

[A]

I'm about to read it. I can't read it from over there. We've had ours for a month and had nothing but problems. I just had to order a different machine. We had to redo the wiring constantly. The suction is also terrible.

[B]

My question is, if you got one cow, why are you buying one milking machine?

[A]

Such garbage would never recommend. I don't want to pull on it.

[C]

Is it possible they're using it for something else?

[A]

What else could they use it for?

[C]

Vacuum cleaner?

[A]

Minisupply.com has a lot of different ones.

[C]

You laugh at us. Why is it possible to have a machine that milks one cow?

[A]

Well, see, look. Here you go. This is what you're. We're all thinking of. Hold on. Oh, no. I just downloaded something.

[D]

Yes.

[A]

I just got put on a list. Yeah.

[B]

Oh, good.

[A]

Open image in new window. See, that's what we're talking about.

[D]

Yeah. They just. They got their slot and. Hey, look, they just go out there and call them and they. They come in,

[C]

same slot every day.

[B]

You think, Uncle James. Yeah. They get trained to go to the same place.

[C]

Them cows don't look like they doing great.

[A]

You wouldn't be doing great either if you had a machine tugging on your nipples every day.

[B]

Ours wasn't in a circle. His wasn't. He was just long.

[D]

Now, mine, my cousin. His was just a long rope they're

[A]

making more chocolate milk.

[D]

Like one side of the barn had all the stalls.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

And like you said they would, he's just going to take. Call them and they'd come in.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

And go their slot. Yeah.

[B]

Because they had hay waiting on them.

[D]

Yeah. I got food there in front of you.

[B]

Had a prime rib waiting on you.

[C]

Every day you go, did they produce milk year round?

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Oh yeah.

[C]

As long as something keeps sucking on it, it'll keep making milk.

[B]

Yeah, I guess so. You're the biologist I'm not really sure about.

[C]

Well, I mean, that's why I thought of that like once you get them pregnant, once you're good, Right. Because like if you keep pulling the milk supply, it'll keep producing, right?

[D]

Yeah. No. Oh yeah.

[B]

I don't know how cows work, they're not human.

[C]

So I mean, I see some people out there breastfeeding a six year old so you know, I figure, oh man,

[A]

you're going to get me to say something unpopular.

[D]

Well, no, no, because that's like the human being.

[C]

I'm here for it.

[A]

I'm not a woman.

[D]

A woman produces milk for her offspring.

[B]

Yeah, yeah.

[C]

14 by 80.

[D]

You got to put it together.

[B]

That's 1300.

[A]

That's a nice house though.

[C]

1300 square feet.

[A]

Oh, if you were handy as a

[B]

pocket on a shirt.

[C]

It doesn't come with a porticochet or does it come with a garage?

[D]

Who needs one of those?

[C]

Or balcony.

[B]

No electricity.

[A]

Where do you see this?

[C]

On the specs?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

See portico. 00.

[A]

Portico. That's funny.

[C]

I'm trying to figure out why that number would ever be anything greater than one.

[B]

No plumbing, no electricity.

[C]

I guess you can just circle your house, park on either end of it.

[A]

I don't know if anybody has got two. Trying to come up with a second one. I don't. I don't see it.

[C]

Well, you could like park by your kitchen, drop off your groceries and then go park by your bedroom so you could leave for work early in the morning. I guess I.

[A]

Don't be weird.

[C]

You just circled your rig.

[A]

I wonder if you can buy a cow on the Internet.

[C]

Well if you can't, that's a shame because you can buy something to milk him.

[B]

He sure can.

[C]

I don't know. Oh, you're talking about live cow. I'm sure there's auction sites. You can buy whatever you want.

[B]

Just go to the.

[A]

I want to buy it on Amazon though. I get 5% back.

[D]

I wouldn't die if you could buy a cow on a bam son.

[A]

You can buy anything.

[B]

Is There an Amazon sale barn.

[C]

Yeah, it's called a D.C. d.C. Distribution center. They got everything in them.

[A]

It is crazy. Si. Do you have opinion on the data center?

[D]

What?

[A]

The data center they're putting on interstate. Have you seen it?

[D]

Nope.

[A]

They doubled it. It was a five mile building and now it got doubled to ten, I guess. Well, I don't know which way.

[D]

I know they're in the news right now and some states are saying no, they're not going to do them because it's taking up, you know, and making everything go sky high. And that's done. The land around here, you try to buy land in Louisiana around here, you fix a payout your rear end just because of that data center.

[C]

For now.

[D]

So it has. It has its pros and cons.

[C]

We don't know the cons.

[D]

Yeah, it's good for the economy.

[B]

I know plenty of the hotel rooms around here.

[D]

It brings a lot of good jobs and high paying jobs.

[A]

It brings a lot of high paying jobs of men that work with their hands who often like to go to tackle shops.

[C]

Well, Johnny D reaping a benefit of this thing right now.

[A]

I got no issues with it. Sir.

[B]

Yeah, I got some customers from over.

[A]

Oh yeah.

[B]

Building AIM building. Yeah.

[C]

They hired you for a team building coach.

[B]

Now they. They come fishing. Women.

[C]

That's what I'm talking about. You're the coach.

[A]

Ain't working seven days a week.

[C]

They get on your boat. You're the team building coach.

[B]

They have to be at work at 6 o' clock every morning and do extra exercises.

[C]

Really be over there in the middle of nowhere at 6am to do exercise exercises?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

That's weird. Could you imagine if we had to do that when we all

[D]

fit employees.

[A]

I'm into fitness.

[B]

They don't want no ocean.

[D]

They just want a bunch of fit.

[B]

You know, people don't want them to get hurt.

[A]

Fitting this pizza in my mouth.

[B]

Stretching. I'm sure Calisthenics. I'm like it. I thought that's what I heard. I don't know it to be true, but that's what I heard.

[A]

I could see it being true.

[C]

Yeah, it's interesting.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

They give you a prize if you stay safe.

[B]

Certain turtle box. We used to. At Riverwood we used to get. For safety. Safety and we'd get.

[A]

You get prizes.

[B]

Bonuses.

[C]

Oh yeah. There's a bunch of stuff at mom's house. It's like little old coolers and stuff. It's like 1 million man hours safe or something. And 2 million 10 million dads.

[B]

Yeah, we get bonuses for a certain percentage of if we didn't get stuff sent back and waste and stuff like that. I played my trailer note for a year one time when I first but got my first house just off of bonuses for staying safe. Safe and good work. Not we didn't, we didn't go over standard on waste. And you know, I like that kind

[C]

of dangle that carrot.

[B]

Well, that's an.

[C]

I like a good bonus system.

[A]

The safety ones get me because I'm like, I feel like keeping all my limbs should be, you know, motivation enough.

[B]

Absolutely. But if we don't want to buy

[A]

a honey hole hat and give it to them for staying safe, I'm for that too.

[B]

Yeah, you don't want to OSHA recordable.

[C]

Oh, that's what it is. No, OSHA recordable.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

We don't have the OSHA at my job.

[B]

Yeah. But that was all good stuff when I first started working there. And then they started changing the way you do stuff. You didn't come off from the sweep. You could, when I started, you could go from sweeping the floor to plant manager, work your way up to plant manager. But when all that shut down and the common sense left it, well, I started making duck calls. Amen.

[C]

I started sweeping them floors again.

[A]

Stuff goes corporate.

[D]

Common sense left.

[C]

I left head and you got size your co worker. Well, common sense left. I found side.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

You know one thing, as you get older, you start looking at things a lot different than you did in the past. Like credit scores is one of those things. Because you know why? You get older, you get tighter and you want to save money, so you want to save it any way you can. One of the easiest way to do that is with a good credit score. So if you're looking to refinance, buy a new car or rent an apartment, anything that depends on your credit, you want your score to be as strong as possible. So you get a lower rate and you want it now. And that's why you need smart credit. Smart credit is the new science in credit scoring. With data experts who understand how the credit bureaus operate, Smart Credit builds a personalized strategy designed to take action and maximize your score not by a few points in a few months, but potentially see a real upward change to secure better rates on everything that you finance. Look, better scores could mean faster approvals, lower payments, and more money in your pocket. So if you're young, look, maybe you don't even have credit. Maybe you, you haven't had the chance check out smart credit. Or maybe you had some unfortunate things happen in your life. Smart Credit can help you get back in the game so much quicker.

[A]

I'm for it.

[D]

Oh, you're far down.

[A]

No, I'm for leaving places like corporate America and working with psy.

[C]

Yeah. Amen, buddy.

[A]

But a data center, I don't really know what it does, but I am

[D]

one who has seen the uses a lot of electrical energy.

[C]

Well, a lot of electricity.

[B]

That's why they did it on that corridor. Because that energy's got all that going down that way.

[C]

I can give you a con on our end of it.

[A]

Ducks.

[B]

All right. Give me one.

[A]

Ducks.

[C]

Well, the proposed power line.

[B]

Oh no.

[C]

Yeah. It's gonna cut right across the corner of our duck hole.

[A]

Shoot it.

[D]

Really?

[B]

Too many dollars.

[A]

That power cord's gonna be so big.

[B]

Gonna be like too many dollar signs. Go around.

[A]

Oh, you want it not to be there?

[B]

Well, yeah. You ever started to see power lines?

[A]

Yeah, I fish through power lines.

[C]

I don't think that I. I don't think I prefer it now.

[B]

They don't sit on it like doves. You can keep doves off power lines.

[C]

Well, then whistling ducks are probably sit on.

[B]

Yeah, they gonna give us some of them right there.

[A]

You look up and there's just a bunch of mallards on a power line.

[D]

I don't see the. Hey, don't. Hey. Whistling ducks lot on power lines.

[C]

That's what I say.

[B]

Yeah. Yeah.

[A]

Hold on.

[D]

Big time.

[C]

Well, my problem is is right beside us, the state already own. Why not just go across that.

[B]

Oh no, that. That's hardwood.

[C]

Yeah. So are we like. So why not just move it over here.

[B]

Cause.

[C]

And go that way. Because since you already own the land.

[A]

I grew up under power line, so I don't.

[D]

You would like them. You would think.

[B]

Well, it's a common sense thing.

[C]

Which you would think they would use their own land instead of having to try to pay the private land owners for the use of.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

And plus I just don't want to look at that when I go duck hunt. Like, I mean, I know. Be fair.

[D]

That's like they, they've. They've got down here on this junk about putting them dadgum panels up.

[C]

Solar panel.

[D]

Solar panels.

[C]

Well, now all the solar panels and the windmills make a lot more sense now that you see everything play out to it because those were put up before this come here for this reason. But they didn't tell nobody that. Now you start seeing all the things that went into before they announced the data center.

[D]

Well the data center is going.

[C]

How'd you boys know to. Okay. You boys know to put that solar farm in there and get paid?

[B]

You ever heard of inside trading?

[A]

I'm for that too.

[D]

So that's what happened. Okay. Below.

[A]

As long as I'm inside.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

65.

[C]

I'm on the inside. This at. Huh.

[D]

165. That's what happened on the solar panels down.

[B]

I'm sure.

[C]

Well that's where the power line is going to come from. It'll be coming from Alexandria. So 165.

[A]

They're bringing power from Alexandria and to

[C]

tie in all of that. Yeah.

[A]

That's not what they told me.

[C]

Who so my next door neighbor works for that data center.

[A]

He told me that the power came from Arkansas.

[C]

They're going to connect from there too.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

They got power cut. I know a guy that's, you know,

[C]

who happens to own a piece of land in the middle of nowhere Arkansas that's also a good duck hole. That seems to be in a path of that too. Is it also you. It's not great. Because they're going right across duck country.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So for duck hunters it's well just bad enough they put them big dumb ugly windmills up there.

[A]

Here we go on the windmills y'.

[D]

All.

[C]

But they are.

[D]

Well because there's nothing. They're not doing anything with them.

[C]

Doesn't seem like it. Half of them span, half of them don't. I don't get it. So.

[D]

Well no. And plus they was put up to run the power for cities but there has to be lines ran from there to the city and none of that has been done yet. That's why I don't understand.

[C]

We need to figure out how to harness that free range electricity.

[A]

What's free range electricity?

[C]

Lightning.

[A]

That's a terrible idea.

[C]

Why?

[A]

You saw what it did to Benjamin Franklin. Towards kite all up

[C]

step mama Zipper off her bridges.

[A]

Put all them cows on the ground in Pennsylvania.

[D]

Hey look, this is the age of technology we know we ought to be able to harness.

[C]

Yeah. Why can't we get lightning in a bottle?

[D]

I'm telling you, I've watched catch it

[C]

and store the energy.

[D]

Hey, I've lost storms in North Carolina.

[A]

It's probably coming.

[D]

Don you could. Hey, if you could have captured what went across that sky that day, man.

[C]

Green Goblin does it on Spidey and his amazing friend.

[A]

Why can't we catch lightning Flight.

[C]

Yeah, Docked it. It's got to be there. Why not capture the energy?

[A]

I'm pretty sure Darth Sidious showed us why this is a bad idea. Why can't we capture lightning and turn it into electricity?

[D]

Oh, you don't have to turn it. Capture it.

[C]

Yeah. We just need the Internet.

[A]

Power is both too brief and too massive for our technology to handle.

[B]

We need to find the aliens in

[C]

too brief and too massive.

[A]

Anything we have to put them in would explode with if you captured the lightning.

[C]

So if you figure out how to

[A]

build that, that's what they're doing. And y' all are complaining about it.

[D]

Oh, we're not.

[A]

That's what the data centers are here

[D]

for, the capture lightning. We're not. We're not complaining.

[A]

It's me.

[D]

We're curious. Why can't we capture this and harness it?

[C]

Yeah, we figured out everything else we ain't figured out.

[D]

That's like. That's like with the Africans. I still don't understand why they don't. Instead of walking, why don't they ride zebras upstairs? They got plenty of zebras in Africa.

[C]

Plenty of zebras.

[A]

They do not have no.

[D]

Hey, rope them. And I do what the Indians, the native Indians did and break them. Break them and ride them.

[A]

How many people.

[D]

You'll never walk again.

[B]

Just laugh at you.

[A]

1.58 billion people are in Africa. How many zebras you would.

[D]

One of them would have thought, hey, let me get a rope and catch

[A]

me one of them did.

[D]

I don't have to walk.

[A]

There's only half a million zebras.

[D]

Well, that's what I'm talking about.

[C]

So one out of three could hit you, right?

[D]

That's right.

[B]

Hey, you could ride double.

[A]

One out of three. That's the worst math I've ever heard.

[C]

Wait, you said half a million and 1.5 billion.

[A]

Oh, 15 billion.

[C]

Multiply that times three, then.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Five times ten. Yeah, do that math times ten.

[D]

Well, look, a lot of the time we ain't close.

[C]

I missed the baby.

[D]

They need to grow the population instead of walking. Good ride. Because, hey, look, that ain't the only thing that's running around on Africa.

[C]

The only thing you ride.

[A]

Every time they do somebody on a wildebeest and they're like, give money to the kids in Africa. Walking to the well. Sides, like, just get on a zebra Dummy.

[D]

Well, no, no, because look, they ride elephants. Why didn't they take something little and smaller?

[A]

Nobody rode.

[B]

You could take a whole family on.

[D]

People in India ride elephants.

[A]

They're riding Indian elephants. You can't ride an African elephant.

[D]

Oh, yeah, you can ride out of.

[C]

Yeah, Barnum and Bailey.

[A]

Hey, those are Indian elephants.

[D]

Trust me, they ride for sure. I'm just saying.

[A]

Totally making all this up.

[D]

You're not progressing, elephant.

[A]

Okay, African elephants are generally untrainable and too aggressive.

[D]

No, they're not progressing. They have things that they can ride.

[C]

Wrap a saddle on an ostrich, son.

[A]

Hey, they've done that.

[D]

They ride ostriches, camels, all this good stuff.

[C]

But never the zebra.

[D]

Look, hey, I'd want a garage. You've got an opportunity, you take it. Okay, I'm just. Doc. We sent a man to the moon, son. And around the moon.

[A]

To be fair. I agree with this.

[D]

Now, hey, if we can do that, we did it. No, no, I'm a back on

[C]

German East Africa.

[A]

Oh, hold on.

[D]

Look, right now, every time a storm happens, that's free, free range electricity.

[C]

I've said it.

[D]

Free.

[C]

Okay, if some people on Sweet Home Alabama to make glass, we can do something else.

[A]

Mr. Elon Musk, if you're listening or

[B]

if anybody probably knows how, he just.

[A]

Will you please come on this show and explain to sigh why we cannot capture for electricity. He would know.

[C]

You would think you could put it in a rod though and that rod transfer something else and put.

[A]

Blow up the rod.

[D]

When he comes here, he's going to have to give me a 50 fit.

[B]

Now the rod would be a conductor

[D]

of the money we're going to make

[B]

by into something else.

[C]

Yeah, you would just. I would think you would be able to like trickle it down from one conductor. Slow it down, slow it down, slow it down, slow it down.

[A]

No chance. Did you just hear what SA just said?

[C]

No.

[A]

This is the he wants, he wants optimism of Cy Roberts.

[C]

He wants Elon for 50.

[A]

Not if. When Elon Musk comes to Westman Road to be on our podcast, he owes him 50% of all lightning generated revenue.

[D]

Electricity ain't nothing but small lightning.

[A]

Just by discussing data centers. Here's my opinion on data centers and lightning.

[D]

Okay.

[A]

I know a lot of guys have got good jobs out of it and I'm happy for them and I hope the best for everyone and involved.

[B]

I genuinely keep going to Godwin.com.

[A]

i genuinely root for my fellow human

[D]

being no matter the situation. Okay, you're going, you're going. You're trying to stop progress.

[A]

No stopping progress.

[D]

And you ain't going to stop it.

[A]

You ain't stopping it.

[D]

Might as well hop on. You ain't stop it. It's either, hey, get out of the way, or get on board.

[A]

Right, which is why we are going to harness.

[B]

I say get on board and let's

[D]

go fishing and charge people for the electricity.

[A]

Speaking of lightning, did you know lightning's in the Bible?

[D]

Well, I know there's rainbows in the Bible.

[A]

There's lightning, too. Matthew 24:27. You know how we talked about how lightning is too big, too powerful, and too quick to be contained?

[D]

Contained.

[A]

For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the son of man. Jesus Christ coming. It's gonna be quick, like lightning, y'.

[D]

All.

[C]

It's gonna be quick and it's gonna

[A]

be painful and powerful.

[D]

Hey, here's the best part of this.

[A]

Judgment Day, boys.

[D]

If you're not in Jesus, you ain't gonna want to see that day come.

[C]

Yeah, lightning ain't gonna be the I want to see.

[D]

That ain't gonna be your problem. Okay? Your problem is, hey, you didn't believe in him.

[C]

There you go, then.

[A]

That trumpet gonna sound. What song you think he's gonna play?

[C]

All rise.

[D]

That's it. That's it. That's it. All bow and hit your knees.

[C]

We'll see y' all next time right here in the duck call room.

[D]

We're out, Sam.
