[Si Robertson]

Welcome back to the Duck call room, ladies and gentlemen. We are back. It's been on hiatus for a while.

[Phil Robertson]

So it's been a wild ride.

[Si Robertson]

It's kind of weird being back, honestly. So. But no, I had fun. Saw the great state of Missouri saw size place where he got his teeth fixed that they said was out in the middle of nowhere, which was legitimately on the side of the highway, by the way.

[Phil Robertson]

Interstate, just in the middle of a field.

[Si Robertson]

It was right there. Like you. I look, I look. I saw it coming from a mouth. I was like, why do I know that logo? So, doc, you did good job because I remembered the logo. Then I got there even with. I was like, oh, that size place, that's where Si got his teeth fixed.

[Christine]

In the middle of the nowhere.

[Si Robertson]

In the middle of nowhere in downtown Springfield, Missouri. Middle of nowhere on the side of 65, man.

[Jace Robertson]

Well, how are those chompers working for you?

[Phil Robertson]

Good. I did lose a bunch of weight though.

[Si Robertson]

Did you?

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, I was down to 136.

[Si Robertson]

Where you at now?

[Phil Robertson]

About 145.

[Si Robertson]

145.

[Phil Robertson]

I've been hitting all that dressing. I've been.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, I about. Yeah, I ain't got to talk to you since Thanksgiving. What? How was your dressing?

[Phil Robertson]

It was good.

[Si Robertson]

Was it?

[Phil Robertson]

Yep. Did everybody. Everybody said it was good.

[Jace Robertson]

Everybody.

[Phil Robertson]

I said what I always say, not.

[Si Robertson]

Enough sage, not enough sage.

[Phil Robertson]

Next time I eat a little heavier.

[Si Robertson]

Okay, hold on.

[Christine]

Stone was actually there.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh.

[Jace Robertson]

I tasted the dressing and I thought it was pretty good. But one man disagree. Jace Ace Robertson. Yeah, he took a bite out of it. He said, I ain't much on wet bread.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, wow.

[Phil Robertson]

So, Jason, Jace. Jace got you one sucker himself. Okay. That boy can't do nothing right.

[Si Robertson]

No, he can. Nobody else can.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, that's good. Well, that's.

[Si Robertson]

He can do everything right. Nobody else.

[Phil Robertson]

Hey, look, that's the only reason. Hey. He only goes with one person when he goes hunting.

[Si Robertson]

Himself.

[Phil Robertson]

Himself. It's the only one he can get along with.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, man.

[Jace Robertson]

He said all side did was make a big pot of soggy bread.

[Phil Robertson]

No, it wasn't no soggy bread.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, man. That's.

[Phil Robertson]

Compared to what they ate for 20 years. That's about a day all there was eat. Because I always told Phil, okay, it's hit it again with a sage, boys. Y' all ain't got no flavor.

[Si Robertson]

Get it and get it on up. Do you tell him he can make it next year if he don't like it?

[Phil Robertson]

No, I don't care.

[Si Robertson]

You gonna make it anyway?

[Phil Robertson]

I'm gonna make it anyway. Just. Hey, I'll eat what I want.

[Si Robertson]

There you go.

[Phil Robertson]

And then, hey, to the rest of them, you know what I say?

[Si Robertson]

What?

[Phil Robertson]

You know where they can go?

[Si Robertson]

Oh, I don't where.

[Jace Robertson]

But it was pretty cool with Johnny D because he used Phil's old.

[Christine]

Old Magnolia.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, no, no, that used to be mine.

[Jace Robertson]

Oh, it was here.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah, I brought that. I brought that container from Germany. And we was down there at Fields, and, you know, and he said, oh, I can use that. I said, well, how you gave it.

[Jace Robertson]

Look at that.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, a man of the people.

[Jace Robertson]

It had quite the presentation. It had the look.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, it had a good look because I had six wood ducks that me and Chad picked. Okay. He helped me pick them. And then, you know, I didn't have no time to cook it properly because we had two podcasts to do that day. Okay. And I didn't get home till three. Yeah, no, it wasn't quite firm enough. You know, it was still kind of shaky.

[Si Robertson]

Well, that's fine.

[Phil Robertson]

When I put it. When I. Soon as I got there, I told Willie, I said, hey, put that in the oven. It needs to be cooked some more.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh. He said, well, I did stiffen it up a little bit. And I said, you did? Yeah, yeah. But I ate my whole plate. I had. I had three things. I had 90% dressing, wood duck, and then a couple of pieces of turkey. That was it.

[Si Robertson]

That's all. Okay.

[Phil Robertson]

I mean, I told. I had told Marshall, I put me about 10 spoons. Is that dressing on? She fills a whole plate up with dressing and then put the duck on top.

[Si Robertson]

Don't you. Don't you want it a little soggy? If you go plan on the.

[Phil Robertson]

Most people cook dressing to where you can cut it with a case knife and then take it out with a, you know, Hamburger. Yeah, it's that. Is that hard? Yeah, it's got to be moist.

[Si Robertson]

There you go. Moist.

[Christine]

No case knife.

[Phil Robertson]

And it was because I ate the whole plate. Yeah.

[Si Robertson]

I mean, how much did you have at the house? Are you still making.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, I don't. Look, I had that whole pot where I didn't have no room put the ducks. I mean, it was level four with dressing.

[Christine]

You've thrown it away now.

[Phil Robertson]

And then I said, well, I went to sleep that night and I said, y' all woke up. And I said, you know what? I said, this is stupid because they may not like it and then they'll just waste it. I said, so I know what I'm going to do. I'm going to go in there this morning and I'm going to get me two of them 18 inch casserole things I got and make me two of them for me.

[Christine]

Are you still eating it?

[Phil Robertson]

Nope. I knocked that out in two days. J.D.

[Christine]

That'S good.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, wow.

[Phil Robertson]

And then I was worried he was still eating. Christine found some that she had packaged. Well. It was last year. Well, I hit them too. Okay. And I said, well, I said mine last year was better than this year. After last year it had enough sage. You could taste it.

[Christine]

You froze it for a year.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Christine]

You shouldn't eat Thanksgiving leftover.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, no, no, no. And it was best.

[Si Robertson]

I like wedding cake.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Christine]

Because on Friday I. Oh, it was delicious. AKA eight days after Thanksgiving, I was in a bind. Real buying because I had a whole turkey breast left and it looked real good Wednesday night.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Christine]

So I made me a sandwich, ate it, thought I'd be. I was like, ah, that's, you know, oh, my son. Six or seven days. It doesn't work like that.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, Thanksgiving Day at My son in law did the turkey.

[Si Robertson]

Okay.

[Phil Robertson]

Cow.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

And what did he. He used something. He used some kind of oranges or something. Oranges? Yeah, the. And hey. And it was. This thing was delicious.

[Si Robertson]

Boy, that's high praise.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, no, I'm. No, I'm serious. He was shocked when I told him. I said, by the way, I said that turkey was excellent, son.

[Si Robertson]

The only person more surprised is me. I ain't ever heard y' all compliment somebody else, but it was.

[Phil Robertson]

It was moist and had a real good flavor.

[Christine]

How about that? Well, so was mine. Six days after I.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, I think say most people cook a turkey too dry. It was.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

And that was cooked perfect. But he put some kind of either. Either juice or orange juice. Fresh, fresh. Fresh fruit.

[Si Robertson]

And she made a perfect shot on.

[Jace Robertson]

A little bit the dust.

[Phil Robertson]

That 30. 30 is bad news, boys.

[Jace Robertson]

Yeah, we hunted that joker about three years.

[Blake Cook]

Yep.

[Phil Robertson]

What is that? And I. BK laid him on the ground at one hunt. Yeah. Shot him. The deer fell, kicked about twice and laid there for five minutes. Then the next thing is happening is, hey, I'm seeing him get up and I can't even talk. He's dragging by the blind and dragging your back legs. He's only running on his front too.

[Jace Robertson]

Yeah, that was three years ago.

[Phil Robertson]

That was the funniest thing to watch in this world, I'm sure.

[Christine]

I was trying to figure out how you held on to a deer by the antlers.

[Si Robertson]

Hey.

[Phil Robertson]

So I was afraid to turn him loose.

[Jace Robertson]

A dead deer that was running around in circles.

[Phil Robertson]

Hey, you could have been saying, hey, you better hold on to him because if he's thinking snows, he's liable to stick you with what you've been holding on.

[Christine]

That. That takes some grip strength.

[Phil Robertson]

I'm scared. The adrenaline was fired up, son, let me tell you.

[Christine]

Oh, Lane, you grab hold of there.

[Phil Robertson]

And he get up, take off running after he's been shot twice.

No, no. Hey, Stone can tell you about that. I just wonder why there's nobody else done it about picking somebody up and y' all just bodily picking somebody up and then slamming them against the wall. Well, yeah. He said, that's a stone.

[Jace Robertson]

He did do that to me, so barely.

[Christine]

I'm terrified.

[Si Robertson]

Burl, I got a question. Yellow, very yellow. Almost the color of grass dog.

[Jace Robertson]

Yeah.

[Si Robertson]

Needs face paint.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Si Robertson]

But Santa Claus.

[Phil Robertson]

I love. I love it.

[Si Robertson]

Santa Claus is in, but yellow. Yellow grass is out. Jay stops every morning and picks up broom sedge to put on top of that blindness. The same color as that dog.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah. Oh, Jason always thinking about brush now. Oh, I know Bill had a lab like that. She was golden. This one's kind of yellow. And look, that was the best. That was the best duck dog. And she had a bonus. If you seen her go over to an oak tree and rare up on it, put her paw on it. Hey, circle that sucker and kill a cat. Squirrel that's in the tree.

[Si Robertson]

There you go. Hey, dual purpose, right?

[Phil Robertson]

He'd go. Phil would walk the creek, Horny Creek up there in Arkansas. He'd walk that creek shooting woodies and come back with eight. Eight cat squirrels. He'd come back with a toe sack full of woodies and eight cat squirrels.

[Jace Robertson]

That's a good day.

[Phil Robertson]

Cause, hey, that dog, he had. Hey, she went over and laid up on a tree, shoot the cats. Squirrel out of it. Just swollen up there.

[Christine]

She could just tell there was a squirrel.

[Phil Robertson]

It wouldn't bark. Wouldn't bark. You just go up there and play and be looking up, just ready to go crack him.

[Jace Robertson]

You'd like that dog cracking that. That dog has got it.

[Christine]

Did you say that dog was.

[Phil Robertson]

He's got the fire bulls. You know, black dog, feel hat. Oh, yeah, Blue. Blue. If he has a fire blue head. Oh, yeah. We shot a Miller Drake. He come out there and circle. They couldn't call him in. He let out there about 90. Well, about five of us raised up and Phil counted it down. One, two, three, boom. All five of them. Well, we crippled him. Okay, so Blue takes off after him. Now, we're on the east side of Dog Bow, right up against the brush, okay, this duck is over there on the other side, okay? Past the scaffold blind. Behind the scaffold blind. I look over there and hey, Battle of Duck's about 2 foot above the water, flying. Then like a minute behind that, here comes Blue. I said, that sucker's gonna run him down, boys. Hey, 35 minutes later, I hear, here comes Blue swimming. He's got that live melon drake in his mouth. I said, now, boys, there's a duck dog for you, man. He chased that mallard drake a mile and caught him. And the duck could fly any.

[Si Robertson]

Y' all ever need to know how to tell a story? You're getting a. A plus glass on it, right?

[Phil Robertson]

That's 100%.

[Jace Robertson]

Well, sigh. The good thing about that dog is she won't pee on you when you take a nap, right?

[Phil Robertson]

When you try to take a nap, you hear? I thought it was raining.

[Christine]

Just a dog peeing on you.

[Phil Robertson]

Hey, Blues over there got. Just hiked up. Just. And I mean, now he has. He had pressure sauce. I thought it was rain.

[Si Robertson]

He ain't like you, I gotta say.

[Phil Robertson]

I'm spending a little trickle or a drop every now and then.

[Si Robertson]

I gotta say, after spending a week in Missouri with the temperature never getting above freezing, they ain't like me either. So I struggled. I struggle getting out of them waiters.

[Jace Robertson]

I was like a bill's pump when.

[Si Robertson]

He goes, yeah, he needs a little compression.

[Phil Robertson]

What in the world? Hey, pop the. So when your lungs go bad, boys, a lot of things go south.

[Si Robertson]

What your lungs got to do with you? Never mind.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, yeah, it does. It's connected.

[Christine]

It's all connected.

[Phil Robertson]

It's all connected, boys. Oh, did you give that dog a.

[Christine]

Hit of your oxygen after it got back?

[Si Robertson]

No, no, he wasn't on it.

[Phil Robertson]

No, it's true. He's done that about three times, though.

[Christine]

Chased alive.

[Phil Robertson]

No, no. We shot another one up there on the north lane. And look, we see the duck fly around the corner to the pipeline. We see Blue slide, slide around the corner chasing him. Hey, about 45 minutes later, he come from the other direction. He went all the way down the pipeline to catch this one and swam back the other way, come through the lake and then up the north lane. I said, boys, there's another one. I said, he chased that maybe two miles and caught Her.

[Si Robertson]

There you go.

[Phil Robertson]

Hey, he had to fire. Now Blue did. But he had the worst manners, if any one of them I ever seen. No, he talk a lot. Hey, no, no. Phil would stop three or four times and let him out. Let him crap. That didn't help.

[Christine]

Three or four times.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, yeah. To let him die. He had actually crap. And then the first thing he done when he got in the boat, he had crap on. In a boat.

[Christine]

That's. That's a food issue. That's not on the dog.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, no Door.

[Christine]

As a person who recently went through trying.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, that's on the dog.

[Christine]

That was. That wasn't my fault, and it's not the dog's fault.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, my question for when you were going through that, did you call anybody while you were doing it on the toilet? Not you, no. I was just wondering. No, no.

[Christine]

I was in a bad.

[Si Robertson]

Because our good friend, we did call me the other day while he was doing that on the toilet and just.

[Christine]

Thought that was okay.

[Si Robertson]

He said, oh, I'm finally getting cleaned out from Thanksgiving. It's a poison. And then you. I was like, yeah. I said, Debbie, I got 10 hours on the road. You can call me back. Like, we don't.

[Christine]

Or did he just answer when you called him?

[Si Robertson]

No, he called me.

[Christine]

That's a. That's a party foul.

[Si Robertson]

And I don't know if he was headed there or during the conversation. It just hit him, but he could have hung up and called me back. He's like, oh, that sugar poison, bro. I was like, okay. All right. We have reached a new level of our friendship here. W. I like, you would just take me into the bathroom with you. That's good. That's.

[Christine]

I've answered that's on the toilet before, but, yeah, I stay there. Yeah, I'm just stuck until I'm off because I don't want them to hear.

[Jace Robertson]

Like, the toilet flush.

[Phil Robertson]

Bouncing off of the commode, it has an echo.

[Si Robertson]

The shower, it's got a very hollow sound to it, like it's the only room in the house that sounds like.

[Phil Robertson]

It's like. It's like you're in a tunnel.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah. Yeah. So. Yeah. You've never lived till you listening to.

[Phil Robertson]

W. What are you doing? Oh, I'm just dropping a turd is what I'm doing now.

[Si Robertson]

He was doing more now. He sounded like he was in a bind. It was. It took him a week to get unbound. So, I mean, I guess he's feeling better, you know, because that was a week after Thanksgiving when he called Hunter. You ever done anything like it?

[Phil Robertson]

No, but my sister dies.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, okay.

[Phil Robertson]

She calls me while she's in the bathroom.

[Si Robertson]

Okay. To bring something or just to chit chat?

[Jace Robertson]

Just to chit chat.

[Si Robertson]

Okay.

[Phil Robertson]

She's so weird.

[Si Robertson]

So anytime she goes to do that, she thinks of you. I know to say a lot. Y' all got an interesting relationship, Hunter.

[Christine]

Well, we're twins.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Si Robertson]

You are twins. Yeah.

[Blake Cook]

Good point.

[Phil Robertson]

That's weird.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, it's.

[Jace Robertson]

And disgusting.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, I know. It is our. Oh, W. E. Oh, man.

[Christine]

He's the only person I know that would do that.

[Phil Robertson]

I think he's the only man I know that can order a 14 inch steak 3 inches thick on a plate. What did it on his belly and ate the whole thing. And never, never.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, but sugar's the problem.

[Christine]

I thought he lost a bunch of weight.

[Si Robertson]

He's. He likes the stock market, man. He up, down, up there. I never know where he's at in the, in the weight loss.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Jace Robertson]

He had to lose a bunch of weight so he could get that knee surgery.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Jace Robertson]

Then once he got the knee surgery.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah. And then he just went back.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

He don't get it because it was hard to lose that weight. Yeah.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, man.

[Phil Robertson]

Don't get it.

[Si Robertson]

Did we talk y' all talk about while I was gone about our girl reaching her milestone?

[Christine]

Oh, yeah, we did that the whole episode. You, you, you FaceTimed in for a moment.

[Phil Robertson]

Good.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. When I faced.

[Christine]

Oh, yeah. You asked what we talked about.

[Si Robertson]

There you go. Yeah. Okay. I'll just make.

[Christine]

We got to give that cup away.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, we got them. So everybody that donated and put DCR or let us know out to the side that they did, your name is in the cup. And at some point today we're going to draw that and we'll let their.

[Christine]

Names all in the cup.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah. Well, Lindsay did it. I was about to say that was.

[Phil Robertson]

A lot of names.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, it's a bunch of them. It was. She had like eight sheets of paper or something like that.

[Jace Robertson]

Oh, wow.

[Christine]

Thank you, Lindsay. Yeah, thank you, Lindsay.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Christine]

Because I've been trying to figure out.

[Si Robertson]

How we were going to do that.

[Phil Robertson]

We already thought. We've already thank you, the fans for that.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

So we thank you so much for that.

[Si Robertson]

But we said we were going to give it away. So we're going to draw it at some point today and make sure that we send that out so hopefully that you get it by Christmas time. So if you wanted it for yourself, great. Or if you want to give it for a gift, you can do that as well. But yeah, all the names are in there. You want to side draw one? We'll do it right now. And then if you hear this or listen to us or whatever, figure out a way hellocallroom.com call leave us a voicemail. We just need to be able to get your address, so don't dabble. But we're only going to pick one winner. So if it. If you're a little behind on the shows or whatever, we'll get it to you just. We have to know how to get it to you. But they're all in there on little sheets of paper. So Lindsay did it. What's the name? Can you read it? Sigh.

[Phil Robertson]

Chris Burns.

[Si Robertson]

Burns.

[Phil Robertson]

Could it be R, N, E, S?

[Si Robertson]

Okay. No, he didn't have any R I, S. Okay, maybe.

[Phil Robertson]

Wait a minute. B, A, R, R. Is that B A, R, R, N. Should have got.

[Christine]

But if your name is Chris Burns or Barnes.

[Si Robertson]

Barnes. Burns.

[Christine]

Could be a Barnes. Could be a Burns.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Christine]

Could be a Bernays.

[Si Robertson]

There you go.

[Christine]

Hard to say.

[Si Robertson]

But anyway, you know, if you gave to our friend Morgan and that's Right. Or not. So we. Well, we can draw a backup one, I guess.

[Phil Robertson]

I like the way she did that. Oh, I've drawn my stank.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, never mind.

[Christine]

Yeah, now I don't know who deserves it. Of a backup one.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Christine]

Charles Rowe. We appreciate you.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, there's a bunch of them too. Deb Whittington, she brought them all to me before we got rolling day. I said there was this many. So from the bottom of our heart, thank you all. We did go through there and find all that, so.

[Christine]

And now they actually have a coach.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, now we're ushering in the Lane Kiffin era. So, you know, never. You never know what may happen there. LSU may be good again. You can't ever tell the. No, it's. That was really cool.

[Phil Robertson]

That's my prediction.

[Si Robertson]

What's that?

[Jace Robertson]

Oh, boy.

[Phil Robertson]

That line came to. Comes out of you. First of all, Wednesday, the sec, a lot of.

[Si Robertson]

We saw. We saw that really meant a lot.

[Phil Robertson]

Then even better than that, he wins the national championship.

[Si Robertson]

Well, apparently you just want to sneak in them playoffs.

[Phil Robertson]

That's what I'm talking about.

[Si Robertson]

You don't really have to go win a whole lot to get in there anymore.

[Jace Robertson]

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

[Si Robertson]

I'm so aggravated at college football. I just don't.

[Phil Robertson]

I don't like the new system.

[Si Robertson]

I don't like. Well, we're not a football podcast and Hunter gets mad at us when we talk.

[Phil Robertson]

I can't help. I don't like.

[Christine]

And Stone, quit watching.

[Phil Robertson]

There's too many playoff games.

[Si Robertson]

No, there's not. There's not too many of. No, I disagree with. There's too many of them. I. I just don't understand why when one team loses in their conference championship, it matters and when the other team loses, it doesn't matter. You stay the same. I don't get it.

[Phil Robertson]

That's.

[Si Robertson]

I'm talking to you. I'm talking to you, Alabama. I don't care.

[Phil Robertson]

That's. That's why I don't like it.

[Si Robertson]

And I'm not a Texas fan. I'm not a Note, everybody. If you know me, you know how much I really don't care for Texas or Notre Dame. But come on, man, like Alabama. We want to see him get beat again. Like, I mean, is that fun? I guess it is kind of fun to watch them lose.

[Christine]

It is nice when Alabama. My day goes better.

[Si Robertson]

But the only problem is watch them hit some kind of streak of weird luck and circumstances, make it the whole way or something ridiculous.

[Jace Robertson]

But, Hunter, do we want to bring Blake in? Let him talk about his duck hunt this morning.

[Phil Robertson]

Let's do it.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, he can sit right here. I'm good.

[Phil Robertson]

Bang. Who in?

[Christine]

We got Blake cooks back in the building.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah. He came. He came.

[Christine]

Which was an excellent introduction. Before he got there.

[Jace Robertson]

We got our buddy Blake cook back in the house.

[Christine]

Back in the house.

[Jace Robertson]

And I think he has found what he's been looking for.

[Blake Cook]

Oh, Been searching.

[Christine]

Was it Burley? Because I did notice you peeking over right in the corner of this picture.

[Blake Cook]

No, I was looking at right there, barely. I was like, man, if I was a kid, that's what I would really want Santa Claus to look like. I wish somebody showed me that when I was a kid and told me that was Santa Claus.

[Phil Robertson]

There you go. He was.

[Blake Cook]

He is massive. But you look at him, right, and you're like, oh, man, this dude looks scary. He is so nice.

[Phil Robertson]

He's. He's.

[Christine]

He's actually as a sweetheart. He is so.

[Blake Cook]

He is so nice. Like, I walked in.

[Phil Robertson]

Until. You cross him. Yeah.

[Blake Cook]

I don't want to cross him.

[Christine]

Find that out.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Blake Cook]

I was like, hey, how are you doing, sir? He's like, I'm doing well, sir. Thank you for asking.

[Phil Robertson]

His dad. His dad is just like. He is both of them just as strong as an ox.

[Si Robertson]

He's.

[Blake Cook]

He's massive.

[Phil Robertson]

Big boy, if I ain't mistaken. Big boy used to pick up. I think it's him, a bale of cotton, which is five Hondos.

[Christine]

£500.

[Blake Cook]

Yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

He would load them on wagons.

[Blake Cook]

His hands are huge.

[Phil Robertson]

He's a big boy.

[Christine]

But that wasn't what you were looking for. That was just a nice surprise.

[Jace Robertson]

I would classify Blake here as an adrenaline junkie. Yeah. So he's used to kicking indoors, going after the worst of the worst, and it's kind of hard to match that.

[Blake Cook]

Yeah.

[Jace Robertson]

That level of adrenaline. But this morning we had what I would call a bit of a phenomenon with the wood Ducks, they just kept coming. They wouldn't stop coming.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, that used to be like when they. That 40 acre cornfield blew down.

[Jace Robertson]

Yeah.

[Blake Cook]

So j. I said, man, I said, I've been searching for a long time, trying to find that. That really good adrenaline as you're, you know, you're in the truck, you're in the Bearcat. You know, you're about to go smack this door. You about to go in and just guns ablaze and throw flashbangs. Your heart's racing, There's a little bit of peace. I was like, man, I think I've been looking for that for the last six years. Can't. Couldn't find it no matter what I did. I said, this morning, the sun was. Sun was coming up, and next thing I know, I heard the water hit. Jay's like, kill him.

[Christine]

So, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

[Blake Cook]

And then as soon as we got.

[Christine]

Done shooting, he's like, load it back.

[Phil Robertson]

Up, mom throwing shells.

[Christine]

Boom, boom, boom.

[Blake Cook]

I was like, oh, my God. I have found what I've been searching for. I mean, it was one after another.

[Phil Robertson]

Although it is fun when they get on the road. You need to get on a green winged heel hunt like that.

[Blake Cook]

Oh, we had those.

[Phil Robertson]

Every time you turn around, it's, hey, load your guns. Load your guns. Yeah, here comes another bunch.

[Blake Cook]

It was cool. It was the day before we had a bunch of teal come in, and it was, you say like 15, 20. It just kind of came in, tap.

[Si Robertson]

The water and took back off.

[Blake Cook]

And that was when that was, because Saturday we didn't. We didn't have anything.

[Jace Robertson]

We didn't fire a shot. Well, Saturday we had Sadie and Christian, Christian's brother and his wife, Christian's brother Chance and his wife Maya and John Luke. John Luke, me and Blake and Jace.

[Blake Cook]

Does a packed house.

[Jace Robertson]

And I told Blake on the. On the way down there, I said, we have. We have one thing that we're trying to accomplish today. He said, what's that? I said, stay alive.

[Blake Cook]

Hey, I didn't want to come. I didn't survive all these things. But I will say, shot by friendly.

[Jace Robertson]

Fireside, the best thing ever had. We didn't fire a shot. So, yeah, there was a lot of good banter in the blind. We pretty much had a Bible study.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah, we did.

[Jace Robertson]

And Sadie was great.

[Phil Robertson]

Like, that's always good. Yeah, that's always good.

[Jace Robertson]

Oh, yeah, it was great.

[Phil Robertson]

She.

[Jace Robertson]

She said she wanted to come hunting because she always regretted not hunting with Phil. And I didn't realize she had never Been hunting with Phil.

[Phil Robertson]

That's.

[Jace Robertson]

Wow. But she wanted to do it in his honor. So it was the first time she ever been a duck blind and she loved it. So we didn't kill anything. So we got to do a part two for the video where we actually kill something.

[Blake Cook]

Yeah, yeah. The part one was cool because I think. I think people get to see the. The cool side of the blind just having those discussions.

[Si Robertson]

Look, this holiday season, you want to give a gift better than anything you can give. Give somebody their confidence back, right? Like if they're, if they're struggling with their hair and you know, it.

[Jace Robertson]

Little thin.

[Si Robertson]

Our friends over at Neutrophone can help. Look, Stone's even taking his hat off. You dropping a hint? We need to get you some.

[Jace Robertson]

Oh, I think so.

[Si Robertson]

We can do it. Doesn't matter where you are, what stage of life. Neutrophil has something for you. Look, Brittany started out with the postpartum. Now she's taking women's core for women under 55.

[Phil Robertson]

If all it was was pulling a trigger and putting a deer down, I'd sell ever gun I've got. Would never go again. Yeah, that ain't what it's about, number one. It's just like your relationship with Jesus. It's about who you're with.

[Blake Cook]

Oh, yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

You know, and Al had an excellent lesson the other day. Most people don't understand there's three things. Okay? Here's rule number one. Have a close, personal relationship with the Creator. That'd be Jesus Christ. And then put into play in your life. Faith, hope, and love. Them three things with the Creator first, and then with everybody you come in contact with. Yeah, it's about making memories. The most important thing in your life, okay, is a relationship with God Almighty. If you don't have that, like I told him in San Quentin, you boys ain't got doodly squat. If you don't know the Creator and have a personal, close relationship with him, you ain't got nothing.

[Si Robertson]

Oh, yeah, you're right.

[Phil Robertson]

You could have all the gold, all the silver, all the jewels, all that. And look, that's nothing compared to the close relationship with the Almighty.

[Blake Cook]

Yeah, I think. I think you're right. Like, who you go with, I think is really important. Like, back in North Carolina, I got invited to go hunting with some guys and didn't really have a good time because they didn't. Like, I wasn't matching their energy of what they were putting out. You know, it's locker room talk, you know, talking about women. It's just like, man, I was. I was so ready to get out of there. It's like. And then, you know, you come here and you. You. You get to experience it. And then I fell in love with.

[Phil Robertson]

It because I always say it. Okay? My brother, when he become a Christian, he actually went to the woods to isolate himself from the world. He kept himself in the creation. And, like, he didn't know the creator for 28 years. And this is a guy that spent his lifetime in God's creation and didn't know it. Well, once he run up on him, well, you couldn't stop him. Yeah. He's going to tell you about the Creator, who he is, what he's done, what did we do in the past, what he's going to do presently, what he's going to do in the future.

[Jace Robertson]

How many men got baptized in that decoy spread, sir?

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, literally thousands.

[Blake Cook]

That's what they were talking about. They said, man.

[Phil Robertson]

No, no, I'm serious. Literally, like, right there, off of. Off of the. Where the boat ramp is at his house. Oh, there's so many dead bones in there that, you know, you'd be walking on dead bone.

[Blake Cook]

We were picking decoys up out the water on that first day. And Jason and. And Jason. Now imagine being in a bomb field, getting all the way down in your skimpies. Went out there in that cold water.

[Phil Robertson]

I said, oh, yeah.

[Blake Cook]

I said, man, you talk about having it with the Holy Spirit.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, no, no. Hey, most of them. Most of them, it was their choice.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

Bill said, hey, look, I got some waiters. You know, we can run up to the church. It's got a heated situation. We got a heated little pool. Oh, I want the full effect of this then. And then everybody stand on the sides, cranks off with a come as you are. Just as I am.

[Blake Cook]

Yeah, it was cool to see.

[Phil Robertson]

I mean, I get chill, Bunk and yo. Yes. You know, it. It means something to watch somebody go in. Okay. That, you know, and he's not been right. Watch him go in the water. And when he comes up, then you watched him for the next 10 years, and he's right. Yeah. Well, hey, there's something magical about that.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

You know, he does. He met something or heard something or something. Made a big change in that dude or that woman. Well, that's important. You need to figure out what made him change or her. What changed her.

[Blake Cook]

I think it's the people that you surround yourself with, for sure.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, no, no, because I tell people.

[Blake Cook]

All the time, they're not blind. With, like, solid people.

[Phil Robertson]

I said, here's the thing. I said, it's much easier once you hear the message and obey it and we're baptized. Reenacting Jesus's real death, burial, and resurrection. That's when you ask what you do when you. You go be baptized. It ain't just getting wet. You're reenacting the Savior's real death, burial, and resurrection, for crying out loud. You bury the old man of sin, or old woman of sin in a watery grave of baptism. Then when you come out of the water, God talking. Here's why. Creation, you got to know the creation because creation is very important. God speaking. When you come out of the water, my son has washed you as white as snow. Got rid of everything you've ever done. It's a clean slate. And now you are. The old is gone and the new is here. You are a new creation because the old one's done away with. You buried that sucker or you buried that woman. Yep.

[Jace Robertson]

And that what Phil told Ol Al.

[Phil Robertson]

Big Al, this man had an aneurysm blow out on him when he died. And he liked a week before he come to feel and said, hey, you need to tell me the story again. What changed you? And he baptized him. And like the next week, he was baseball coaching baseball on a baseball field on third base. Boom. Artery blew out, killed him. There's a hammer right there. Right there. And look, he had run with Phil all his life. He was one of them that dragged him off and got him into a bunch of stuff. The best thing I ever heard from my brother was I was down at his place, Al Bolan and all his drinking buddies and whoring buddies showed up and said, hey, let's go run the women and get drunk. And Phil said, boys. And literally their eyes got this big around when he told them what he told them. And I was standing there listening and it done me good. He said, you boys are looking for a dead man. He's dead. And I buried him deep and he's never coming back. He's gone. He said, now you get back in your truck and get your butt off my property.

[Christine]

He was still scary. He was just the new creation.

[Jace Robertson]

That's right.

[Christine]

Everybody was still afraid of him.

[Blake Cook]

Version two.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, you gotta think of. Okay, he's like in his 28, okay, bearded, okay. And got armed. I called. I used to call him Popeye from pulling them fish in them nets. His forearms look just like Popeye. They was twice as big as his muscle up here. Crazy looking.

[Jace Robertson]

He run a hundred hoop nets.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, I'll tell you how bad it was. He bought him a hard aluminum boat, okay? He's got soft cotton ropes that he's got tied to these nets. He wore a 1 inch groove in that hard aluminum just from pulling that soft rope, cotton rope on it.

[Jace Robertson]

True story.

[Phil Robertson]

I could put my finger in it and you couldn't even touch my finger. You could do like that. You could lay a ruler across it. It wouldn't be touching my finger. Oh, it was an inch deep. That was from, hey, pulling 100, 250 pounds, 90 foot off the bottom of the Washtaw River. And then empty minute in a boat.

[Jace Robertson]

You've never run hoop nets. That's a lot of work.

[Phil Robertson]

He had 100 out. I couldn't even kept up with him because he didn't tag.

[Christine]

He knew exactly where everyone.

[Phil Robertson]

He didn't tag nothing. He pull. You'd pull up. And he said, hey, go over and raise that, untie that rope off that stump. Well, hey, there's 10 stumps that looks just exactly alike.

[Jace Robertson]

You know what the crazy thing is? If somebody else put that net out, they wouldn't catch nothing would catch fish. Bill puts it out. It's full.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, that's one of the things I've never understood. He's got, he's got 1,000 yards of tremble. Okay, that's got two inch squares and it goes from the bank to the bank of the Ouachita River. Well you would figure. And it's 12 foot long deep. When he ties it off. 12 foot of nothing but solid net all the way across Washta River. You would think all you would have to do is just go out there and throw it out, tie it off, come back, gets fish out later. You don't have it in the right place, you won't get a safe scale. You won't catch one fish, take it, move it 10 yards to the south of the north, fill it up.

[Jace Robertson]

And he never put bait in those hoop nets.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah, that's crazy.

[Jace Robertson]

He put it in their path in the, on the highway. And if you were off by just a couple of.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, won't catch nothing.

[Jace Robertson]

Nothing.

[Blake Cook]

He fill them up.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, I've actually seen him raise an 8 foot hook net. Okay, slam full. When I'm talking about full, I'm talking about just when he gets it up where the water's about half off of it. Them crappie blow up and you know, just water going everywhere, you know, thousand 1500 in the net and he had empty them back in the river.

[Phil Robertson]

He.

[Christine]

He was strong.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, no.

[Christine]

Talking about they. There's people that run them four and five foot hoop nets now, and nobody buys a five foot because. Oh, no, I thought that's just too much to handle. He's got eight footers.

[Phil Robertson]

No, no. I thought he was sick. First time I went out with him, we. I mean, it's. It ain't even daylight. It's cool in the morning. He's running a net and it looks like somebody's taking a five gallon bucket and poured it on him every about two minutes because he's just running water. And I said, you need to go to the doctor. And he laughed. He said. He said, I got one up here. It's about 50 yards long. You gonna run it? I said, hey, I don't know. He said, oh, you'll be all right. I'll tell you how to do it. So we go up there and I grab it and hey, look, you know, I'm into it about three minutes. It looked like somebody's pouring water on me. What? A five gallon pump? Like I said. Now, I understand commercial fishing is. I've had some bad jobs, but catching fish in a net, no worse. That's. That's the worst one I've ever worked.

[Si Robertson]

Tough gig.

[Jace Robertson]

Well, I got something for Blake this evening. You saw in the picture Old Bone Breaker and boots?

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah.

[Jace Robertson]

Oh, yeah. We gonna go up to the Jiu Jitsu gym this evening.

[Christine]

Boy.

[Jace Robertson]

And we're gonna see if he can find another adrenaline dump.

[Blake Cook]

I'm not gonna have one. I'm gonna go ahead and tell you that. That looks like a lot of cardio. That looks exhausting. I know my knee hurts.

[Christine]

I'm rooting for you, but.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, I want to come join us.

[Jace Robertson]

I want to give him the full, full experience.

[Blake Cook]

Do you need help being busy?

[Christine]

No, I've got it all. I know you gotta go get.

[Phil Robertson]

Get wrestled. I know one thing pop into place. Out of all the masters, kung fu, all the martial arts, all that. Okay. Jiu Jitsu. Is what you want?

[Blake Cook]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I don't want to die from the boy on my left because he has no neck and he looks.

[Christine]

Do you know jiu jitsu?

[Blake Cook]

Oh, I know kung fu.

[Christine]

Yeah, he knows it. You can fight Burley or.

[Phil Robertson]

No, no, I was just going to tell you that the kung fu martial artist, a master. Hey, he got in the ring with his. You just see your master, he was actually a panda. Hey, it took him about, oh, less than a minute. He's tapping.

[Blake Cook]

He's done, son.

[Phil Robertson]

A guy jujitsu grabbed him and put him in a hold. And hey, if he didn't tap, he fixed pass out.

[Si Robertson]

Thanks.

[Blake Cook]

Thanks for the encouragement.

[Christine]

You got.

[Phil Robertson]

Oh, no, I'm telling you, here's what it is.

[Blake Cook]

I feel any type of squeezing.

[Phil Robertson]

I don't know. It's knowledge versus muscle 100 and guess what? Hey, muscle loses every time.

[Christine]

What if you don't have either?

[Phil Robertson]

Well, you ain't even gonna get in the rain. That's a good point. Don't even get in the ring.

[Blake Cook]

I asked him if I could just train with the kids section today.

[Phil Robertson]

That'd be good for you. Oh, Saul calls it therapy.

[Christine]

Sage choked me out once just to.

[Phil Robertson]

See what she could do. First of all, she showed Carly's boyfriend out. And this dude was, hey, this is a healthy young man about 18 years old.

[Christine]

I'm a healthy 35 year old at the time when she did it to me.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, no, you talking funny. Say, he's come running in. I think she was seven at the time. Yeah, she comes running in, jumps up on the couch behind the boyfriend, puts him in a chokehold. And look, he's got a phone in his hand. The next thing you see is, hey, the phone's on the floor and he's. He's turned, he's going down. As Chase said, turn that boy loose. Turn that boy loose. Just choked him out.

[Christine]

We brought her in here and she was like, you. You want to see something? I was like, sure.

[Phil Robertson]

That sucker out in less than a minute.

[Blake Cook]

I was like, they were just. They were doing something in the house the other night in like two seconds. He was like, all right, all right. I was like, oh, no, that will destroy my image.

[Jace Robertson]

There's nothing more satisfying.

[Blake Cook]

11 year old girl.

[Jace Robertson]

There's nothing more satisfying.

[Blake Cook]

Nobody will ever want training for me again.

[Jace Robertson]

Yeah, there's nothing more satisfying than watching your little girl beat up.

[Phil Robertson]

Yeah, beat up. All the boys holding her.

[Jace Robertson]

There's something about it does my heart good.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, not only that, it puts your Heart at ease when she starts dating.

[Jace Robertson]

Yeah, it's good therapy. It's good therapy.

[Phil Robertson]

You don't play.

[Si Robertson]

Nah.

[Phil Robertson]

You come in one day, you invited me on each take. I'm sitting on the couch, she runs in. She's been outside playing. She runs in and gets in front of me, said, uncle sigh. I said, what? She said, you want to wrestle? And I sage, outside was a dog. Go now. Get the H out of here. I'm not going to wrestle you. No.

[Jace Robertson]

But we had a big time this morning. That was a really good duck hunt, which those don't happen too often these this day and age.

[Christine]

I hadn't heard a minute.

[Jace Robertson]

The Almighty blessed. Blessed this morning with a good duck hunt and good fellowship. So like Blake said, it's all about who you're with, the experience and memories you make.

[Christine]

And all that is possible because of a man named Phil Robertson.

[Jace Robertson]

That's right.

[Christine]

And all that comes from a man named Jesus Christ. And it's because of what is said in 2nd Corinthians 5:17. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come, the old has gone, the new is here. Or to paraphrase like Phil said, the man you're looking for is dead. Get off my property.

[Jace Robertson]

Yeah, that's right.

[Christine]

And that's what it's all about right there. So you want to.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, it's like you was talking about, yo, duck hunting is a sport, okay? And it's about who you're with. Okay. And then what happens when you're with them, okay? Because like you said, one of your buddies, you didn't fit in with them because all they want to talk about was women and all this other crap.

[Si Robertson]

Yeah.

[Phil Robertson]

Look around you, for crying out loud. Everything. You see, the Creator created this, including you, me, and rest of us. Okay? You just. Y' all like, said came Ben. Ben something as the song. I got Jesus, I've got it all. And that's true if you've got a relationship with a creator. Guess what? Jesus loved you enough and me enough and all the rest of us. He made you co heirs with him. Well, what has Jesus got? Oh, let's see. How about the cosmos? Thank you. All of it.

[Blake Cook]

All of it.

[Phil Robertson]

Well, hey, Jesus shares that with me, Jack. That's why I said, hey, if you got Jesus, hey, I don't need nothing else. Because, hey, guess what? Jesus has got. He's got it all.

[Christine]

And hopefully you have Jesus before you go to Jiu Jitsu, because, yeah, you might need. It'd be tough.

[Phil Robertson]

I always told the people in the military. Well, with what you're in, son, you better have a close personal relationship with Jesus, because there ain't no telling how long you gonna be on this earth.

[Christine]

Well, luckily we know Blake's got that. I was just messing with you about Jiu Jitsu. Besides about to break it down for you.

[Blake Cook]

I was feeling pretty good about Jiu Jitsu until I did this.

[Si Robertson]

Now I'm a little scared.

[Phil Robertson]

Now, look at it this way. You with good people.

[Blake Cook]

That don't make a difference being the hospital.

[Phil Robertson]

Look, hey, Stone says this way. Hey, a man needs to be humble every once in a while, right? And look, Jesu will do that.

[Blake Cook]

I have a 17 year old son that tells me all this.

[Phil Robertson]

I know you stupid every day, probably a pretty bad band, but judiciary will. Will humble you.

[Blake Cook]

Yep, it is. I'm. I'm. I'm just so looking forward to it.

[Christine]

Well, we're looking forward to hearing about it. And we will catch y' all next time right here in the duck call room.

[Phil Robertson]

Sat.
