Main Themes & Key Discussion Points

1. Snake Stories & "Phil Robertson Snake Protocol" (02:13–22:36)

• Instagram Snake Video: Martin shows Si a video of himself finding a cottonmouth near the barn. Instead of killing it (as Phil would), he lets it go—triggering much playful ribbing from the rest of the crew.
• Safety and Parenting: Martin explains he didn’t kill the snake because his kids were watching, and he wanted to set a good example about respecting dangerous animals rather than risking their safety with "stick whacking."
• Phil’s Approach: Phil recalls routinely slaughtering scores of cottonmouths on his property for safety; his method involves hip-shooting with a .22, never hesitating ("If I see it, I blow its head off." – Phil, 03:09).
• Respect vs. Fear: The crew debates the value of teaching kids to respect, but not irrationally fear, snakes. Si notes:

  "They're not to be feared, but they are to be respected. Give a little bit of room and you can all get along." (09:04)

• Snake Identification Tales: Stories arise about friends and family members bitten at snake rodeos or while walking in woods—emphasizing the importance of picking the right stick or weapon and always double-checking species.
• LEGENDARY FOOTAGE: Classic Phil stories involve dumping sacks of caught cottonmouths and “running 30 rounds into the mud” (Duckman 5 & 7; 14:22; 19:01).

  "He could hold [the gun] out and know it. He wasn’t looking at the scope. He knew exactly where that thing was aimed just by holding it one-handed." (19:35, Sigh)

---

2. Beavers, Moccasins, and Wildlife "Cahoots" (12:45–14:04; 13:10)

• Mississippi Delta Ecology: According to Phil, beavers and cottonmouths "are in cahoots"—the beavers build, and the snakes patrol ("Because every time you come up on Beavertown, there’s at least five moccasins." – Phil, 13:10).
• Favorite Critter Encounters: Discussion jumps from beavers to gar ("teeth on him like a needle" – Sigh, 18:35), gators, and invasive snakes.

---

3. Hunting Ethics, Parenting, and Lessons from the Wild (06:37–09:04; 09:55)

• Uncle Si details how he’s teaching his boys to respect snakes—not to play with them, but also not to fear all snakes irrationally.
• Godwin shares a story about a boy bitten by a snake at a “snake rodeo,” highlighting common errors in identification.

---

4. Invasive Species & Pets Gone Wrong (25:08–27:28)

• The group discusses South Florida’s invasive python and iguana problems, largely due to escaped/released pets.

  "They remove invasive species. Stuff where humans have created a problem... they go down and eradicate them to the best of their abilities.” (26:34, Sigh)
  The dangers of irresponsible snake ownership are also highlighted (27:31).

---

5. Poker Night (“Animal Farm”), Gambling Antics, and Cheating in Sports (31:56–41:24)

• The "Animal Farm" Poker Game: Si, Godwin & Phil describe their regular poker nights, full of colorful nicknames ("Bull, Fox, Chicken, Smokey, 401K"), bad bluffs, and legendary losing streaks.
• Godwin: "Me and Si are not in cahoots. I’m trying to tear his head off and he is breaking me!" (39:47)
• Commentary turns to infamous stories of NBA and baseball players cheating at poker (using x-ray tables and signal glasses).
• Ethics in Competition: They lament modern-day gambling scandals in sports, comparing them to Old West justice ("That’s why in the Old West, a lot of people got killed playing poker." – Phil, 37:34).

---

6. Food, Steaks, and “Medium Plus” (42:44–45:13)

• The "medium plus" steak debate is reignited thanks to NFL players' steak preferences. Phil’s insistent:

  "If it’s a three-inch steak, I want it light pink, no blood in the middle." (44:15, Phil)

• Si reveals his post-dental-upgrade food journey and marvels at crunchy fries.
• The group shares about a Ducks Unlimited banquet with a 15-yard-long grill, where you can cook your own steak for $2 off.

---

7. Wild Animal Sightings, Escapades, and Humor (28:41–31:12)

• Godwin recalls pulling a five-foot snake out of a camp toilet.
• Martin relates an Irish friend’s social media panic over a “lion” loose outside Kells, which turned out to be a Newfoundland dog with a terrible haircut.

  "That’s the definition of 'so ugly you ought to shave your butt and walk backwards.'" (30:22, Sigh)

---

8. Faith, Loss, and Community (54:06–56:45)

• Justin Martin pays tribute to his grandmother’s passing:

  "...She told us a couple weeks ago she was ready to go, ready to be with Jesus. We know that hope through Jesus Christ..." (54:11–54:36, Martin)
  He shares 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, expressing the power of faith and community during hardship.

• Si and Godwin add encouragement for listeners struggling with grief, especially during the holiday season:

  “No matter whether you’re ready for it, they’re ready for it, or all the things, death is still hard... It’s not the end, thank God, but for here—it is the end.” (55:55, Sigh)

He wants us to be funny.

[Sigh]

Funny?

[Martin]

I'm not in a mood to be funny.

[Sigh]

No, I'm witty.

[Godwin]

Or witty. Nope, you missed it.

[Sigh]

Not a witty.

[Phil]

It's out.

[Sigh]

Nope, not witty, boys.

[Martin]

Well, here we go.

[Sigh]

All right. Welcome back to the duck call room, ladies and gentlemen. We're back. What's so funny?

[Martin]

We just didn't even say, like, what do you want to talk about?

[Sigh]

Oh, we ain't got to, man. Why? Why?

[Martin]

This is literally shooting from the hip at its finest.

[Sigh]

We are not going to break what has worked for roughly 500 episodes.

[Phil]

Wow. If it doesn't wrong.

[Sigh]

I already know what we're going to talk about.

[Martin]

We normally at least say, now go.

[Sigh]

Ahead and pull it up. I know what you're ready to blast me for was I. Wait, no, ahead and pull it up. Go ahead.

[Godwin]

Okay. I was going to say, is this the steak dinners you and Godwin eight?

[Sigh]

No, no. I know what I'm about to get blasted for, so I figured let's just get. Let's just get it out right off the top. I want side to watch roughly a minute video of me and then you can call me every name you want to. Silas. Ready? S. I know it's coming.

[Martin]

This is Martin on Instagram. Don't you J. Martin Duckman. There's. I don't know how to do the volume. There's the button.

[Phil]

What is that? A snake?

[Sigh]

What is that cotton mouth?

[Phil]

That look like a snake?

[Sigh]

It is a snake. It's a cottonmouth.

[Phil]

Throw his head off.

[Sigh]

We play right here.

[Martin]

See, that's what you would think.

[Phil]

He's up here.

[Sigh]

Can't live here. We're here too much. Wait, watch it. Just watch close. Watch this part. Look out now. If you get back to the water, I'll let you go. Did you see that sucker spin out and come right at me? Try to stand your ground. Problem. Go on. Go on and get. Go on and get.

[Martin]

And he let it go back into the water.

[Phil]

Oh, he let it go back.

[Sigh]

I let it go.

[Martin]

The top comment says, I'm telling on you. And that was me. And now I'm telling on you.

[Sigh]

Yeah, I just figured we'd go ahead and rip this band aid off. I could go ahead and.

[Godwin]

Oh, yeah, don't worry. I was gonna make a comment for you.

[Sigh]

Well, look, watch and we'll talk about why I did what I did. But here's what I know. This is not Phil Robertson approved. I'm very well aware of what you would have done and what Phil would.

[Phil]

Have done would have blew his head off.

[Sigh]

Exactly. But I didn't have nothing to blow his head off with.

[Phil]

And then I got me a big sick whoop. What you say?

[Sigh]

Well, see, here's the bar out of it now.

[Martin]

Now we're developing a big problem now.

[Sigh]

Here's the issue with that. And the reason I didn't do that, because I wanted to. Right. Because I. I do trot around that barn often.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

Like, I mean, that is a place that we keep decoys and crunchy slither.

[Martin]

What do we call it?

[Sigh]

What? Does this have a name? No, he does not have a name. But what I didn't want to do was the boy. The boys are right there. You don't see them in there, but they're in the Kawasaki looking at me watching all this. I didn't want to go get a stick and whoop him and then them think, yeah, that, oh, I can get a stick and whoop a snake when they can't swing hard enough or know where to hit or know that there. There is actually. When you kill a snake with a stick, choosing of the stick is very important. That ain't just go pick one and get after it. Like you, you. You can't have one that's going to break halfway down because then you're just bit like, you know, not a switch. I was trying to set a good example. Not necessarily like venomous snakes are. They're their own thing. If you, if you're where I. If I'm just driving down the road, I'm not going to run over you. We're good. You go do your thing.

[Martin]

I'm swerving.

[Sigh]

But if you're aware I spend a lot of time. I do tend to opt for self preservation and that you. He didn't intentionally jump at me. Look, if you would have been there. That's why I.

[Martin]

Hold on.

[Sigh]

That's why I got to laughing because I saw him. He got to go in so fast but couldn't move and he like spun out. That's why. That's what caused him.

[Martin]

That snake jumped at you?

[Sigh]

No, not at all. Intentionally, unintentionally, he did come towards me.

[Martin]

Jumping snakes must go.

[Sigh]

I was. Whenever he did it, I said, oh, when I post this video, cue the comments about that time when they was a kid and they got chased by a snake, man. Like this. That's what people think of. Whatever. I got chased by him. Like, I wasn't worried about him because he was just trying to go so fast. He hit like a little ramp. There was a little root right there. And then that propelled him.

[Phil]

Propelled him in there.

[Sigh]

Yeah. So fight or flight is real, whether you're a human or a snake. Because he was just trying to get away. He was like the Robin Hood. Buddy, let me go.

[Martin]

Cartoon snakes.

[Sigh]

Yeah, he's fine, man. That's fine. I don't look as cold as it is today. I hope he went and found him a nice log to get up under for the rest of winter. When did you become. I don't.

[Martin]

I don't even know. The apologist to. To the vile creatures of the woods.

[Phil]

Yeah, I can't. I can't remember who it was. It was yesterday.

[Sigh]

I got to get better.

[Phil]

I showed me a picture of a cotton. Not a cotton mouth, but a copperhead.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Phil]

And that's about the biggest copperhead I've ever seen. That. That.

[Sigh]

Oh, man. You won't say a big. And you get on my Buddy Mark Daniel Jr. Instagram. He posted one on his story yesterday. Magnum Copperhead.

[Martin]

Did he kill it?

[Sigh]

You know, Mark ain't messing with a snake.

[Phil]

That's really a pretty snake.

[Godwin]

It is pretty.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Phil]

But that joker, I'd say he was about that big around probably, what, all three and a half foot long?

[Sigh]

Yeah, this one's a big one. Hey, look, I'm out here teaching my kids about cotton mouse. But you know what's even cooler? I can now teach them. You don't have to go to the post office to get a duck stamp. You can go to duck stamp.com, get the all new digital duck stamp, and we're protected, we're safe, we're good, we're legal. All the things duck stamp.com. get the all new digital duck stamp.

[Godwin]

So what did your boys say about this?

[Sigh]

Well, we sat down and had a little coaching moment after it that I posted to my Instagram stories, but it was just, we don't play with snakes. We don't. And then they ended it with, let's go find Crunchy. Like, they. They're still stuck on the beaver.

[Martin]

And where is the beaver?

[Godwin]

Crunchy?

[Sigh]

I don't know. We finally got it where there's no flow. So he's not a foe anymore. Right now he won't be a foe until we hit some more rain and get flow back going. So he's. We leveled the pipes out, so he's not mad at us and we're not mad at him right now, but I guess he's still out there. But yeah, no, we just had a good coaching moment and they have since. It's hilarious. Like every day we don't play with snakes. Cotton mouse are venomous. Yeah, it's. It's funny the words that they hang on to, because that's been a mess. That is one that they are very well aware of, that we do not play with snakes. So, um, you know, they don't know that we can play with them.

[Phil]

You might miss the dentist.

[Sigh]

That's why I haven't. I haven't handled one. I haven't even handled a ribbon snake other than the one in my backyard in front of them. So I just am not going to handle any snake until they're old enough to know.

[Phil]

Now, the fish snake better looks just about like a cottonmouth, but he's a little bit different.

[Godwin]

Yeah, that's why that boy got bit at the snake rodeo and had to go to the hospital while we were pulling in.

[Phil]

They look a lot alike, but, you know.

[Sigh]

Yeah, it's.

[Phil]

It's that triangular head you got to look for.

[Martin]

Philip just said the words. That's why that boy got bit at that snake radio when we were pulling up.

[Godwin]

Oh, yeah.

[Phil]

Yeah, he was.

[Martin]

No, he got bit because he was.

[Phil]

There to be there. He was walking down by the dock and look, there's a snake there. He jumped in thinking it was a fish snake. Yeah, well, it wasn't a fish day. It was a real deal boy.

[Sigh]

Yeah, I don't.

[Phil]

And he popped him.

[Sigh]

Yeah, I knew what that one was when I was. When I rounded the corner and saw him laid out.

[Phil]

Oh, yeah.

[Sigh]

Because only cottonmouths do that.

[Martin]

You know why he was laid out in the road.

[Sigh]

He's getting him a little sunlight.

[Phil]

No.

[Martin]

So you could Hit the gas.

[Sigh]

I just don't. I think that's why so many people are scared of snakes, is because they're taught from an early age to be scared of snakes.

[Martin]

Thank you, mom and dad.

[Sigh]

You don't have to be scared of them. You can respect them and move on.

[Phil]

That's the word.

[Sigh]

Like you. You don't have to fear.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

They're not actively hunting you. Like, they're not to be feared, but they are to be respected. Give a little bit of room and like, you can all get along. That's my only. I don't want to put. I don't want to be responsible for instilling any irrational fears in my children.

[Phil]

Well, I can tell it, you know, if you go and say, well, okay, let's get my family a stick. Then you find your stick about two foot long.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Well, no, when you go look for a stick, make it five or six feet long.

[Sigh]

Yeah. And make sure it ain't rotten.

[Phil]

Yeah. And make sure it's green. Or when it hits him. Yeah.

[Godwin]

Because you're gonna fight with it.

[Phil]

It ain't gonna break.

[Sigh]

Because you know how I've learned the lesson of picking the right stick because I chose the wrong one.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

A few times and you get about halfway down and that thing snaps off and you're just left there with a nub and you're like, now what? You're too deep in it now, you know, and so. But I got to get a little better. It is time. This is the time of year to me when you encounter the most snakes, like when they're on the move trying to find them a place for winter.

[Phil]

Winter.

[Sigh]

This is a. This is a time where if you have children and you're going to be around that kind of stuff and you need to get rid of them, it's a good time for a 22 rat shot to just kind of keep on you at all times. And I didn't have it because I just wasn't expecting to see one. I don't. I don't know why that place that we hunt doesn't have a ton of cotton mouse, which is crazy, because that's funny.

[Phil]

And like, fails. When I bought that property, that place.

[Sigh]

Got the most cotton mouse anywhere I've ever seen. Hey, I've been a lot of place.

[Phil]

Oh, no.

[Sigh]

Phil Robertson's property got the most mouse I have ever. I tried.

[Phil]

Hey, when you can kill like 5 or 600 cotton mouse, that's a breeding grounds, boys.

[Sigh]

I mean, yeah, there are so many of.

[Phil]

Because we shot them Just in the next year, you'd start. Start out, you'd come by and look at a hole down there. Had a little water. It'd be five in it.

[Sigh]

Yeah. That's crazy. How many are there?

[Phil]

I'm like you. That's the most snakes I've ever seen in one area.

[Sigh]

Yeah, well, sigh. You finally kind of got the roof matching the basement, huh? You got new teeth and you got new boots, buddy. Throw that boot up there. You just did it. Let's see that thing. Hey, look at them. To Covis. And look at all the scuffs on the bottom. That sucker been. He been stepping out in those boots, man.

[Godwin]

So who's keeping up with all the blinds down at the land now?

[Phil]

Stone.

[Godwin]

Stone is. Is he fighting? Oh, yeah, the moccasin.

[Phil]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Phil says the the Beavers and the Moxins were in cahoots. It's a conspiracy. The beavers build and the cotton mouth, you know, patrol it. Because every time you come up on Beavertown LB4 or 5.

[Sigh]

Yeah. They generally live hand in hand.

[Phil]

Yeah, yeah, they're. They're real fond of each other.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Martin]

All right, I got to do it. I found a video that to just. Just for some other people to chime in on this cotton mouth.

[Godwin]

The cotton mouth, I think, is just evil. Yeah. I mean, you can make a correlation with the evil one embodying a snake, because once you get to know a cottonmouth real well, would you.

[Phil]

What would you say, Phil? They have no fear.

[Sigh]

None.

[Godwin]

They.

[Phil]

They will bite you.

[Godwin]

Oh, yeah. And so that's the point I was making. I'm way more scared of a cottonmouth moccasin than I am an alligator.

[Sigh]

Phil says, oh, now, say, did that video not show you that they very much have fear of you?

[Phil]

Well, it.

[Sigh]

He jumped, he ran.

[Martin]

I was actually trying to find that video. Phil blowing that one into smithereens, and I was just gonna put it up there. But apparently unashamed talked about snakes just as much as we.

[Sigh]

Here's the difference between me and the Crocodile Man. Yeah. I mean, that's a core video from my childhood. Not even. I mean, I have watched that one.

[Phil]

I remember the day.

[Sigh]

I think it was like Duckman 7 maybe is the one that. That's.

[Phil]

You and Phil went. Caught a couple of cotton mouths because you wanted it.

[Sigh]

I caught a bunch of them, yeah.

[Phil]

Yeah. But anyway, we still had them in the sack. Everything, all the filming was done. Well, we was all standing around the circle. Bill got that AR15 in his hand with 30 round clip on it, and he told whoever had the sack, said, hey, dump them right here in the middle. As soon as he dumped him out, you just hear.

[Sigh]

Yeah, he run 30. He run 30 rounds into the mud.

[Godwin]

Is that when them boys came to exterminate the exterminator?

[Sigh]

Yeah. Billy and the exterminate didn't know that's what we were going to do with them cotton mouths, or I may not have caught so many of them. I mean, that was just kind of like a ritualistic bloodletting there. But. But Phil said, you're going to go catch them. And I was like, yeah, I had some snake tongs. I wouldn't. I do not mess with venomous snakes by their tail. I do not. I don't play that game. Well, you got.

[Phil]

When you do that.

[Godwin]

Yeah.

[Phil]

The chances of you get bit.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Is high.

[Godwin]

How old were you and Phil when y' all went squirrel hunting and you had to shoot your way out because all the snakes.

[Phil]

Oh, that was. No, that was when I was at Junk City with him when he was up there teaching. He went down the Arkansas, Louisiana line, which is just a dirt road forever, and he come by the house one day and say, hey, I found him. Let's go kill him. I watched he squirrel. He said, I found son. So, hey, we get there park, we're going in the woods. I'm already about 50 yards away from him. And he said, oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. He said, forever squirrel. There's 10 cottonmouths. Look, I hadn't even walked 100 yards. I mean, all about 20. Well, walked in the woods 20 yards, and I look, there are two cottonmouths and a copperhead. So I started to go around them and I said, wait a minute, I may have to come back this way. Boom. Boom. Boom. Blew the heads off. Well, I didn't go but 100 yards. Well, it's starting to get dark, yo. And I said, well, I bet I was sitting on. It's just cut over. I sitting on a stump, and the stump went down in the creek, you know, and I heard. Kept hearing something, kept hearing something, couldn't. Couldn't find what I was hearing. Finally, I was. I was turning around looking for squirrels, and every time I'd do it, bark would fall off that tree, down that to the root system. Well, the big cottonmouth down in the water, he taught her to squirrel up there. Here you come. You know, I finally helped Boom get back down there where you broke Boom. But anyway, it was about 30 minutes to dark. It's getting dark. So I said, you know, you can't see it better. I better start easing my way back.

[Godwin]

And, you know, there's a lot of snakes.

[Phil]

Oh, yeah. So look, I start going back towards the road. 27 rounds later, I make it to the road. Well, I've shot a box of shells and two, you know. So Phil pulls up with the headlights on me. He said, man, you tore up, did you? And I said, yeah. He said, where they at? I said, right where I shot him. And he said, oh, you've been shooting snakes. I said, you got it. I said, hey, if you're coming back here, don't ever, don't bother stopping by the house.

[Sigh]

Don't call me.

[Phil]

Yeah, don't call me, cuz I ain't coming.

[Sigh]

Yeah, I'm out, boy.

[Phil]

Yeah, I'm out when it's that many steak.

[Martin]

I went to Dutman 7, and I just. You know how it has the most replayed part on YouTube videos? And I clicked it right at the beginning. Most replayed, and it's just Phil biting.

[Godwin]

A duck's head, crunching it, the best of.

[Martin]

Oh, it's Duckman 5.

[Sigh]

Yeah, well, yeah, I May have been off. Little bit on there.

[Martin]

Yeah. It starts with the snake.

[Phil]

Yeah, I was fix to say I throw it up.

[Sigh]

I want to watch it too, even though I've seen it. 700, working with the beavers and cahoots here. All that bus need killing every one of them.

[Martin]

And Conos, the beaver and the Congo are in cahoots. And now Martin's saving their lives.

[Phil]

Here's another critter.

[Sigh]

Here's another critter. Look right here. See?

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

See that sucker right there? Now he got teeth on him like a needle. That's a needle nose, gar. Now what are you doing laying out in there? You know these suckers.

[Martin]

You didn't pay us for this.

[Sigh]

That's funny.

[Phil]

Needle knows God.

[Sigh]

I don't think this is the one where he says it though, is it? Oh, yeah, that's it.

[Phil]

That man, that man loves what he's doing right there.

[Godwin]

Yeah, he did. He loves just working out there.

[Phil]

When they tried to sip in on me. Every morning at daylight.

[Sigh]

This is a daily ritual. Uh oh.

[Godwin]

Uh oh.

[Phil]

Look at that.

[Sigh]

Get him before he gets you. Bop right in the back of the head.

[Phil]

Oh, oh. That's what I'm talking about.

[Martin]

That's not what he did to crocodile.

[Phil]

Blow that head off.

[Martin]

Look at that thing flopping around. It jumping like it jumped at you, Martin.

[Sigh]

Well, yeah, because it ain't got no head no more. I will say, Phil, you know, we go through this a lot, but he was the best at like hip shooting with that.22. Like he could hold it out and know it. He wasn't looking at the scope. Halftime he knew exactly where that thing was aimed just by holding it out one handed.

[Martin]

Oh, wait, here's another one.

[Sigh]

Oh, yeah, he killed. He killed a piss out of him, though. Now this may be it. She's about to go about four rounds in there, I think.

[Phil]

Oh, there's a little more than that. Yeah, look at that. Whoa. See that color? See how he hides up in the old root wads where you walk right by him?

[Sigh]

And therein is the problem. Cause he'll sure pop you. My little sister got bit by one. Her leg got that big around. Turned solid black. Now the crocodile man. Yeah, here it is on tv. Will get up here and mess with him. But I guarantee you one thing. I ain't never seen him grab a.

[Phil]

Hold of one of them by the tail.

[Sigh]

See, here's what I do.

[Phil]

Here's the difference between me and a crocodile man right here.

[Sigh]

I mean, you see, he never looked.

[Phil]

At that scope and, hey, he shunts. Look, he shot that sucker to pieces, too.

[Sigh]

I'm telling you, man, he was. He was the greatest hip shooter with a 1022 you've ever seen.

[Phil]

Oh, man.

[Martin]

If you want to watch that for yourself, it is Duckman five traditions. The first ten minutes are Phil just in the woods raking and shooting snakes.

[Sigh]

That's what I'm talking about.

[Martin]

Like I said, that's the difference between me and the crocodile scope on the gun. Never lifts it above his head.

[Phil]

I pull that thing out where I could really see how bad he shot him up. Yeah, he shot him to piece.

[Sigh]

I know.

[Phil]

That's all. He didn't waste any of them stingers.

[Sigh]

No. He never had to look at the scope. That is always incredible. I remember always just sitting there watching it, like, how did he do that? Just hit, shoot.

[Phil]

Just. He didn't even. I wasn't even paying attention. Just, just.

[Sigh]

No, he'd be looking at you while he did it. It was incredible. When you buy the duck stamp, look, you're not just buying a piece of paper so you can go duck up. What you're actually doing is prot. Habitat.

[Martin]

Entire marsh.

[Sigh]

Yeah, the whole. The whole thing. The spiders, the bugs, the worms, the forward. There you go. Look, that money goes straight to finding habitat that ducks, deer, fish, and all God's critters depend on. We tell folks all the time. Do you want your grandkids to see what real duck hunting looks like? Well, this is a way to help ensure that you can right. The flooded woods, the marshlands, the mallards. They don't just happen by accident. Somebody's got to take care of it. And the ducks nest. Been keeping Wetlands wild for 90 years now, so I bet size bought a duck stamp for nearly all those years.

[Martin]

How many duck stamps do you think you've bought?

[Sigh]

All of them.

[Phil]

A lot.

[Sigh]

It's simple. Look, pick up your 2025 federal duck stamp at your post office sporting goods store or the easiest way, online in.

[Martin]

A matter of minutes.

[Sigh]

There you go.

[Phil]

They've gone digital on us, boys.

[Sigh]

There you go. You do it for the ducks, do it for your grandkids, and do it because it's the right thing to do. Look, you download the duck stamp from duck stamp.com, put it in your wallet, and then whether you've got service or not, you've always got your duck stamp. It's that simple. It's right.

[Phil]

There you go.

[Sigh]

You never have to worry about. And if you're like, well, I want a paper one, guess what? Come March they're going to mail you one. They're going to put a mailbox. Look, you know the drill. Duck stamp dot com.

[Phil]

Duck.

[Sigh]

It only takes two minutes, so let's get it done. That's duck stamp dot com.

[Phil]

Duck.

[Godwin]

He said your younger sister got bit. Who was it?

[Phil]

Oh, Jen.

[Godwin]

What happened with.

[Phil]

Me and her were playing hide and go seek. We had a drained. Was kitchen drain drained out in just a bunch of dewberry pine. You know, it was always wet there. We run through there. Okay. I thought the snake come in.

[Martin]

Was in the kitchen.

[Phil]

Come in and said, I got snake bit, you know. And mama, you know. Well, let me look at. Well, what. It wasn't one hole. Yeah, you know, it's just one hole. And said, no, it's bright stuck, you know. Well, an hour later, her legs swollen up like that back around. And it was the ugliest color. It just. Every color under the rainbow. That's what her leg looked like. And it was twice the size of her. And then you could see. No, it was a distinct too dang well. So they rushed to the hospital, kept her overnight. Hey, you got over it. There you go.

[Martin]

Well, I'm with Phil.

[Sigh]

Kill them all.

[Martin]

It's the difference between me and the crocodile man.

[Phil]

Yeah, I don't play with him too. You don't know how many people. How many times I've shot just that head like that right there. And I just. And it didn't make a difference how far. Hey, he'd just be laying there headless.

[Martin]

The snake episode. So I hate it. I really don't like them. Hey, I'm not afraid of them. Like. Like my wife is, but I'm not.

[Godwin]

I mean, I. The king snakes, I let them live, you know, I mean, when I'm mowing the yard, I will avoid them. But every other snake. Nope. I'm.

[Sigh]

Sad, man.

[Godwin]

I mean. No, but just because I read.

[Phil]

Well, the key snake kills the bad one.

[Godwin]

That's right. I let them live.

[Martin]

See, I'm not smart enough to know. I got a. Send Martin a picture after they're dead and say, what did I just kill?

[Sigh]

Yeah, he always said, what is this? I say dead every time.

[Godwin]

Well, what about the guy who. Who chases the pythons that we met in.

[Sigh]

Oh, big. Yeah, Big king, big boxer.

[Phil]

Yeah, he's.

[Sigh]

He's decided that boxing humans wasn't good enough. So he goes and grabs pythons by the back of the head and pulls them out of holes. And he works with that python cowboy guy.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

And then they kill them and then they make stuff out of them. I tried to get side to go because he was auctioning off a hunt. I was like, sigh. All right, if you'll go with me.

[Godwin]

No, Johnny Lee, see if you can.

[Sigh]

Pull up, go grab a big dummy, dummy python out of a hole in Everglades.

[Phil]

18 foot long.

[Martin]

What's that?

[Sigh]

Huh?

[Godwin]

What is that called?

[Sigh]

It's. I mean, you look up python cowboy. That's probably the guy that's the most famous for it.

[Martin]

And that's what they do for like a job or.

[Sigh]

Well, because pythons are not supposed to be here. So people get them as a pet and when they get outgrow the cage and rather than killing them.

[Phil]

Yep. They turn it loose.

[Sigh]

They turn them loose, now they down.

[Phil]

Florida's got a problem with it.

[Sigh]

Yeah. And now like you go to South Florida, I mean there's 18 foot pythons.

[Martin]

Yeah, I'm looking at one. And it, I don't know when they.

[Godwin]

Were auctioning off this, this hunt, I mean, he told people, he said, you will work. I mean, you're going to have to get in the water and work.

[Martin]

I got to work to work.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Godwin]

Well, it's going to be real.

[Phil]

I ain't all work.

[Godwin]

I ain't going to do it.

[Sigh]

But kind of their deal in South Florida is they remove invasive species. So like stuff where humans have created a problem, like pythons, iguanas, and I think Egyptian geese, maybe they go down and they, they, they eradicate them to the best of their abilities.

[Martin]

Timeout.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Martin]

Did you just say the words Egyptian geese in Florida?

[Sigh]

Yeah. There's a problem there.

[Martin]

How did that even occur?

[Sigh]

Because who got lost? People.

[Martin]

Which migration?

[Sigh]

The same, the same way. The same way. We ended up with a Brazilian imported fire ant here. That causes all sorts of trouble.

[Martin]

Egyptian geese.

[Sigh]

Yeah, he ugly thing. Yeah. So yeah, he's ugly. But that's what happens, man. Humans do what they do. And so now there's a problem. Now you've displaced all your native stuff. So they're going in and trying to eradicate is that's a good thing.

[Martin]

But like whenever they, you know when you go to the pet and zoo and they're like, here, you want to hold this snake?

[Sigh]

Yeah. No, you never do.

[Martin]

I've never. I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be honest. I don't think I've ever touched a living snake now.

[Sigh]

I'm not a big proponent.

[Godwin]

I don't think I have either.

[Sigh]

Like, I'm not, I don't think that should be a thing. Like just because like, there's some people.

[Martin]

In the comments right now with pets now.

[Sigh]

Oh, absolutely. And look, I'm glad that you love them and you care for them and I hope you're a responsible pet snake owner, but the truth is most people aren't. And you can't flush him like you do to goldfish. Like you get tired of him and.

[Martin]

Look, end up with a pet tiger.

[Sigh]

Yeah. I mean, where's. Where does it. Why do we have to domesticate everything?

[Godwin]

And that reminds me of a story. We had a camp in Bosco and something was in the toilet and we couldn't. We weren't sure what it was. And so we got a broom and a. And a piece of string, made a noose. And the next time we saw it, we snatched it and we pulled a five foot snake out of that toilet. I'm telling you, it was five foot.

[Martin]

Snake out of a toilet.

[Sigh]

Yes.

[Godwin]

Yeah, it was humongous. I mean, there was 10 people there looking at it.

[Sigh]

Really?

[Godwin]

It must have come up through the cess pond, you know what I mean? Up the pipe.

[Sigh]

Oh.

[Martin]

So I saw it. Okay. You know, remember our friend Quick Quigley? Andrew Quigley.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Martin]

Listen to us on Spotify so much. We said, dude, if you ever end up here.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Martin]

You got a seat.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Martin]

Our Irishman, he flew all the way from Ireland.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Martin]

Guess what is on the loose in a forest outside of Kells.

[Sigh]

Where's Kels? Ireland.

[Martin]

Ireland.

[Sigh]

Oh, okay. I don't know.

[Martin]

A lion? No, it's like our black panther and it's showing up all over Ireland. Facebook. Hold on, here's another photo.

[Sigh]

And this isn't like Shaggy riding a giraffe.

[Martin]

No, this isn't Shaggy riding. This is real photographs from Ireland.

[Sigh]

Oh, that's a line.

[Godwin]

Oh, yeah.

[Martin]

You would think it is a lion, but the authorities had to get involved, obviously.

[Sigh]

Is this like the monkeys?

[Martin]

Oh, it's better. It's just a dog with a bad haircut.

[Sigh]

Really?

[Phil]

A dog with a bad haircut? That's good.

[Martin]

Everybody in town thought I was thinking.

[Phil]

It was a dog. I was, I was thinking when it was a dog, just away from the rear end.

[Sigh]

The lion, like animal roaming around the woods in East Clare is in fact a very friendly mouse. A Newfoundland dog.

[Phil]

Yeah, I loved it.

[Martin]

So all of Ireland's going crazy over.

[Sigh]

Is that not animal abuse? Oh, look what they did to that poor dog.

[Godwin]

Harassment. Yeah.

[Martin]

I mean, if it was for Halloween, I get it. They wanted to call him Mufasa for the day. But that is a wild haircut. But literally all like. A ton of people were scared.

[Sigh]

I guess they thought there was a.

[Martin]

Line in their neighborhood.

[Sigh]

That's the definition of that. You're so ugly, you ought to shave your butt and walk backwards.

[Godwin]

That's it.

[Sigh]

I mean, that's the definition of that old suit.

[Godwin]

Shaved.

[Sigh]

That girl was so ugly, she had to shave her butt and walk backwards, you know?

[Martin]

Oh, man. But Andrew sent me that, and I laughed and laughed the other night, and I said, I gotta wait for the right.

[Phil]

That's good. That's good.

[Sigh]

Garda. The Irish people not speak English. What's garden?

[Martin]

They speak Irish, man.

[Sigh]

Is it. It's all. It's its own thing.

[Martin]

They got a couple languages that they were okay over in Ireland.

[Sigh]

Yeah, I didn't know. That's interesting.

[Martin]

I believe it's Gaelic, maybe.

[Sigh]

Okay.

[Martin]

Really making that up. I had a dog named Dublin, though. So shout out to our good friends in Ireland. And they're. They're lying, roaming around the country.

[Sigh]

I just expected Irish police for it to say police. I don't know. I didn't expect Garda. What Irish people speak the Irish language? Gaelic.

[Martin]

Gaelic, yeah.

[Sigh]

That's what Hunter's nodding. Gaelic.

[Martin]

40% of.

[Sigh]

As a guy who just visited a ren fair, he should know. Why are you laughing on her? You don't think I snoop? Your.

[Martin]

But only about 72,000 of the good folks of Ireland spe speak that.

[Sigh]

How many people are in Ireland?

[Martin]

Well, see, that's. They didn't give me a percentage. I don't know. But Ireland just, you know, they just throwing out whatever language they feel like the day.

[Sigh]

That's fine. Hey, good for them, man. That's kind of what we do. English, redneck, Spanish, something else.

[Godwin]

I mean, all mixed together.

[Sigh]

Yeah, it's kind of an interesting hodgepodge. Kind of a melting pot, if you will. Say, I heard you had a good weekend finally. Yep. Did you?

[Phil]

I won at poker.

[Sigh]

Whoa.

[Godwin]

And hey, did he win? He. He changed his game. He's been reading books and watching videos. He come in there and he wipes the table out.

[Martin]

You went to books a million and got a poker for dummies?

[Phil]

Well, I was due. Let's say, put it that way, you were due.

[Godwin]

It's those lucky new teeth he's got.

[Sigh]

Oh, he had everybody distracted. You just kept smiling. I couldn't see, so I said, hey, y', all, help me pay for these new teeth.

[Godwin]

He kept smiling. Everybody thought he was bluffing.

[Sigh]

So what'd you. How. What did you take down?

[Phil]

Yeah, Who'd you hurt all the Regular bunch, everybody.

[Sigh]

Did you get Jace?

[Phil]

No, Jason played.

[Godwin]

They skipped out.

[Phil]

He skipped out.

[Sigh]

Okay.

[Martin]

Because I was much funner when you get Jason's or Willie's money.

[Sigh]

Yeah, well, he.

[Godwin]

But he did get Fox, bull, chicken, nerd mayo. Oh, yeah. Even though. But cuts. Daddy was there. They all were. And me.

[Sigh]

Do y' all call Yalls Poker game Animal Farm?

[Martin]

Yeah. What's your name?

[Phil]

Oh, no, no. Because that's what's so funny.

[Martin]

What do they call you?

[Phil]

I'll be telling somebody. I'll be telling somebody about playing poker. And I said, oh yeah, you play with my uncle. Y' all know what his name? Steve. And I said, no, I don't plan it with Steve. He said, oh, well, you probably know him as Bull.

[Sigh]

Yeah. I said, okay, so bull, fox, chicken.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

Fart man. Right.

[Martin]

Now each other's real.

[Godwin]

Hey, Smokey. But Smokey don't smoke anymore. So now he had to quit.

[Sigh]

He smoked.

[Phil]

He had a stamp put in his heart.

[Godwin]

Yeah. And hey, thank you. I'm glad he's alive and doing well. We love you, Smokey.

[Martin]

I mean, Smokeless.

[Phil]

Smokers. We changed his name from Smokey to Smokeless.

[Godwin]

If we could video this game, I'm telling you.

[Phil]

Oh no.

[Godwin]

It would be the greatest ever. I want to put cameras in the table and then side.

[Sigh]

Do you have a nickname? Are you just.

[Phil]

Yeah, they say I'm the 401k. 401k?

[Sigh]

Yeah. There's a lot of truth to that. You. You are an economic stimulus package at a poker table. That's for sure.

Did you see those NBA players that were. That got arrested for playing poker?

[Godwin]

I heard about it, but tell me more.

[Martin]

That these guys making like 20, 30 million dollars a year and they decided to invite people over play poker with them and they had a X ray table to read everybody else's cards.

[Sigh]

No.

[Martin]

100. And cheated and just stole from all these.

[Sigh]

And this is outside of the. The people in the NBA that were shaving points or whatever.

[Martin]

They got arrested at the same time.

[Sigh]

Oh, okay.

[Martin]

But.

[Sigh]

But this was all one big sting.

[Martin]

Oh, yeah.

[Sigh]

Oh, okay. This was all part of that. Well, I saw them two baseballs got popped yesterday for throwing intentional balls because people were prop betting on.

[Martin]

They had.

[Phil]

Philip. Phillip said it. I would love. I would love to. If I had the money like Willie does, I would buy the cameras and film people playing.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Phil]

The group. I've got not to cheat on it. Just where I can show you how crazy they play.

[Godwin]

I'd love to be the commentator.

[Phil]

No, no, no.

[Sigh]

Who's watching?

[Godwin]

Look at this.

[Martin]

They had fancy glasses on where they could see it.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Godwin]

Oh, wow.

[Martin]

So they'd look at their glasses and it would tell them what their opponent's cards were. And then they basically. Which. You know, if you go to an NBA player's house and lose $2 million, I got to question what you're doing, too. That's a bad call.

[Godwin]

Yeah, yeah. That ain't a bad streak. You mean you're getting beat. It's a. It's a plan.

[Sigh]

What's even funnier is if in that deal, like you're the dealer and you're dealing off the bottom of the deck. So then they're trying to cheat you, but then you just end up doe. Popp.

[Godwin]

You can see every car.

[Sigh]

But I'm saying, like, just if you end up.

[Phil]

That's why in the west. Old west, lot of people got to kill playing poker.

[Sigh]

Oh, yeah. They'd have been dead.

[Phil]

Dealing off bottom deck. You catch him, he shoots you.

[Sigh]

Yeah. Or, you know, the movie rounders.

[Phil]

That was one of the things that I used to, you know, I said, well, everybody says. Well, they all. They're all cheating.

[Sigh]

Everybody cheat.

[Phil]

Yeah, everybody cheats.

[Sigh]

Well, y' all play crazy enough. It feels like somebody's got it.

[Phil]

That's what I was. Why I would love to film it. Okay. Because I give you example. His brother. We invited Danny Young. Danny showed up and he clipped him. He clipped everybody for 45, $4,500.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Phil]

Well, when we're going out after games over, I said, danny, we're going to play again next Friday. You want. You want to have seats? Reserve seat for you? He said, no. He said, don't ever call me again.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Godwin]

That's a true story.

[Phil]

That's been 15 years ago. He hadn't played since he had placed it. He said, I've never sat down at a poker table with nine guys.

[Godwin]

Idiots.

[Phil]

And he said, and they don't know what the word F O L D means.

[Sigh]

No, y' all don't. It's bingo.

[Phil]

That's why I would love to show these idiots just a feminine and just say, okay, tonight we're going. Before we play, I'm going to show you how stupid you're playing. Yeah, watch the video.

[Sigh]

Yeah, Here, watch this.

[Martin]

Watch your highlights.

[Phil]

Yeah, watch this. You're calling with 2, 3. And you call $5,000 with the 2, 3.

[Martin]

Oh, that's. That's not what was going down in the NBA. They had one guy that would get the information, and then he'd signal to all his buddy. Like, one guy would show up, and they basically just rob him.

[Sigh]

They were just taking.

[Godwin]

Oh, wow.

[Martin]

There's literally text the FBI guys, please let him win a hand. He's in for 40 grand.

[Phil]

Oh, no.

[Martin]

That he's about to leave if he doesn't win.

[Phil]

That's like that 360 game. They play three. Yeah. Four or five guys come in and they're playing together, you know, Then they split the night's tape.

[Godwin]

Yeah, okay.

[Sigh]

Yeah, yeah.

[Phil]

They want them to say, yeah. He said, oh, I bet 100. The other one say, hey, look, I'm on, but I will raise.

[Godwin]

They're trying to trap somebody.

[Phil]

Yeah, well, look, there's. There's, you know, they're targeting people.

[Godwin]

Let me tell you who's not in cahoots. Me and sigh are not in cahoots. I'm trying to tear his head off, and he is breaking Me?

[Phil]

Well, no, no, because here's the thing.

[Godwin]

But we. But we don't show favoritism to each other at the poker table.

[Sigh]

Well, because I did. I always stayed away from psych because I could never beat him. I never. I was like me and him.

[Phil]

What is funny is we play the same kind of cards, okay. So we run up on each other and we got the same hand. Normally we both got a wheel draw.

[Sigh]

Oh Lord.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Martin]

Wheel draw.

[Phil]

He said I bet 100. I know I'm going to raise you 300, fella. He said I'll ball him. So it just, you know.

[Sigh]

And you own the same thing.

[Phil]

Yeah, but.

[Godwin]

And also when Jace plays with us, he don't want nobody in cahoots. You know what I mean? He's watching for.

[Phil]

Well.

[Sigh]

Oh, team player.

[Godwin]

Yeah, he's watching for this. Just this sort of thing.

[Martin]

If he's watching for X ray table, then I ain't never showing up.

[Sigh]

That's incredible.

[Martin]

That's crazy.

[Godwin]

It must have cost a fortune.

[Sigh]

So they just.

[Godwin]

Table.

[Sigh]

They just picked a guy, say hey.

[Martin]

Man, come on over, we're gonna play poker with you.

[Sigh]

And then doe pop him.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Martin]

And then see you later and take all this money. And now that that dude's gonna go to jail for like 10 years when he was making $20 million a year.

[Sigh]

Who is it?

[Martin]

Chauncey Billups.

[Sigh]

Oh, Chauncey was.

[Phil]

Cause a bunch of basketball players used to. They gamble.

[Sigh]

Well if you most of Michael Jordan.

[Martin]

Didn'T go play baseball for no reason.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

I'm just saying.

[Martin]

I don't know.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Godwin]

It seems.

[Martin]

But if I had to bet.

[Godwin]

Yeah, it seems so easy now to just cheat in the NBA or baseball because everything. I mean Pete Rose, he ain't got nothing on these guys, you know, and everything. I mean you can bet on how many. How many pitches before the guys taken out.

[Sigh]

That's what the Cleveland Indians just got in trouble or whatever they're called now. Guardian.

[Martin]

Guardian, sir.

[Sigh]

Whatever they are. Yeah. Sorry. Sorry to my native American friends.

[Godwin]

And what about these college.

[Sigh]

Sorry to Rick Wild Thing Vaughn.

[Godwin]

These guys in college, I mean they're young and I mean they can be persuaded.

[Phil]

Well, I got a dangerous game out. I got a question. They're playing college players nowadays, right?

[Godwin]

Yeah. They're making more than their coaches.

[Phil]

How much? How much? We're talking about how good are you?

[Sigh]

How good are you?

[Phil]

Big money.

[Sigh]

Some of them if you good, some of them can get out of college. And if they do it right they could go to the NFL if they just Want to go get their brains beat in or they could cash out.

[Phil]

Yeah, but why?

[Sigh]

I'm good.

[Godwin]

Yeah, yeah.

[Phil]

Why?

[Sigh]

Well, but why is because they're very good athletes and that generally comes with an ego, so. However, there are some professional athletes side that you have a lot in common with. Apparently because we stumbled across two videos.

[Phil]

Oh, yeah.

[Sigh]

This weekend, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers. And they were asking their players, how do they like their steak cooked?

[Phil]

What did they say?

[Sigh]

An alarming number of them responded with medium plus. So I'm wondering, do y' all listen?

[Martin]

Hey, dear Arizona Cardinals.

[Sigh]

Deal. Deer. Cardinals. Deer. Steelers. I've already been talking to Patrick Queen with the Steelers to try to get John who Smith. Oh, he says 100% him. He went and watched the video. He said, oh, yeah. He said, I'll see what that clown knows.

[Martin]

He said, great catch last night.

[Sigh]

He did.

[Martin]

They called it incomplete.

[Sigh]

They called it because you eat your.

[Martin]

Steak medium plus, which isn't a real thing.

[Sigh]

If you'd have just said medium or medium rare.

[Phil]

No, no, see, that's what gets me. One of that guy, the chef from New York, sent me a little tweet on the machine on the computer.

[Sigh]

A tweet on the machine?

[Phil]

Yeah. Well, yeah, tweet machine. I'm not into technology.

[Martin]

They tweeted you.

[Phil]

He said he didn't know what medium plus means. I said, I wouldn't eat nothing. You cook, you don't know what you're doing.

[Sigh]

Well, apparently you could make it in Glendale, Arizona, or Phoenix, wherever that. Whatever town that town's in.

[Martin]

A lot of towns in there.

[Sigh]

Or Pittsburgh.

[Phil]

I've asked this in restaurants before. Apparently the fans, when they asked you, how do you want your steak, sir or ma'?

[Sigh]

Am?

[Phil]

Most people say medium rare.

[Godwin]

Amen.

[Phil]

Okay.

[Martin]

Because that's.

[Phil]

And then I said, hey, no, I don't want my medium rare and I don't want it well done. I want it medium plus. Which means, hey, if it's a three inch steak, I want it light pink, no blood in the middle.

[Godwin]

And a lot of times they'll look at me for translation. And obviously he wants it between medium.

[Phil]

Jason always said, hey, make it well done. And I said, no, I didn't say that.

[Martin]

Jay Seeds, well done steak.

[Phil]

Well, no, no, he's just. For me, bad interpretation. No, I don't want to eat boot leather. I buy something, I want it medium plus.

[Martin]

That could change. We. We have a situation here where you have teeth now.

[Godwin]

Oh, yeah. Oh, hey, when he gets his permanent teeth, the. The doc's Going to cook him a steak.

[Martin]

How's he going to cook it?

[Godwin]

He's going to cook a medium plus.

[Martin]

You're not going to change. You can chew better.

[Phil]

Done it when I had these, it.

[Godwin]

Was, it was before.

[Sigh]

Before?

[Godwin]

Yeah, before.

[Martin]

I feel like you can live on the wild side now.

[Phil]

Well, no, no.

[Sigh]

Maybe try rare.

[Phil]

No, no. That's what was so fun. Okay. I literally had to retrain myself how to eat.

[Godwin]

You're finding places to chew that you.

[Martin]

Didn'T know you had.

[Sigh]

What are you. What are you. What? Yeah. Since we've last discussed what have you now eaten? Because now you can eat more, right?

[Phil]

Well, no, no, I had, I had a chicken fried steak the other day.

[Sigh]

How was that?

[Phil]

That was good.

[Sigh]

Unbelievable.

[Phil]

Oh, no. Yeah.

[Sigh]

You didn't even have to have mashed potatoes you wanted.

[Phil]

Well, no, no, I did have mashed potatoes with gravy. Brown gravy.

[Sigh]

You know what you want to give somebody, give them their confidence back if they've been struggling. If you're wondering like what's wrong with that person, but maybe you notice their hair is not quite as thick as it used to be.

[Martin]

Little thinning hair.

[Sigh]

But they don't want to admit it. They don't want to say it. You can give them the gift of Nutrafol.

[Phil]

[Phil]

Funny style. Where would we eat? We ate some French fries somewhere and they were kind of. They cooked some of them crunchy.

[Sigh]

Yeah.

[Phil]

You know, so I wasn't ready for that. I thought it was going to be sauce to it. You talking about cracking and all the noise.

[Godwin]

You ain't heard that noise.

[Phil]

I ain't heard that in a long time. Yeah.

[Godwin]

Well, si. Do you remember that place where we went and they cooked all the steaks? They had a humongous grill and they cooked steaks for the event, the DU event that you went to last year. And the owner came up and said, hey, I hadn't seen you since you and the psychotics were here. Yeah, we. So I went with Martin and Godwin and they were the. The guest for the DU banquet. And I'm telling you, the steaks they cooked smelled delicious.

[Sigh]

I ain't ever seen a grill like it's huge. Things like 15 yards long yards. Yeah, that's probably like 50 foot.

[Phil]

I was fixing. These people cook a lot.

[Sigh]

Yeah. And apparently during the. Yeah, apparently when it's not closed for an event, you can go by there and it's $2 cheaper if you cook your own steak.

[Godwin]

Yeah. They let.

[Sigh]

Let's give you the piece of meat and cook your own. Yeah, you just stand up.

[Martin]

That sounds fun.

[Godwin]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Martin]

It's like a reverse hibachi.

[Sigh]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Godwin]

You cook it.

[Sigh]

You cook it. You sit there on $2. $2 a person if you'll cook them. It's crazy.

[Martin]

I'm interested in going there.

[Godwin]

I sent you a picture of John.

[Sigh]

It's big. Yeah.

[Godwin]

Martin and Godwin eating their steak.

[Sigh]

It's a big place. It is.

[Martin]

Oh, we love it.

[Sigh]

Look at the lady.

[Martin]

She's looking at y' all like y' all don't belong here.

[Sigh]

I know. That's what's hilarious.

[Martin]

Live photos is a great thing.

[Godwin]

That is awesome.

[Martin]

Martin giving the hefty thumbs up. That woman going, what? How did I end up at this table.

[Sigh]

Yeah. Yeah, it was. It was a wild. It was a wild night, man. It was fun.

[Martin]

That's so funny.

[Godwin]

Oh, Jeff, I like when you were bidding on some of those items that come up.

[Martin]

Martin, you started bidding on stuff.

[Sigh]

A couple of them.

[Godwin]

Look, he started shaking his hand like this. I knew what he was.

[Sigh]

I had three. I had three picked out that I would have been okay with coming home with.

[Martin]

But what were they?

[Sigh]

28 gauge shotgun shocker. Right.

[Martin]

That's right up your alley.

[Sigh]

What was the other? The Santa. Oh, the giant inflatable Santa. Inflatable sand ducks in his toy bag.

[Martin]

That's fun.

[Sigh]

That's kind of funny. But I didn't want to. I ended up letting that one go because I didn't want to wait on it to deflate to come home. So we were already going to be getting home late, so I bailed on that one.

[Godwin]

Oh, we did get home late. And there was a vehicle. Oh, on fire on the side of the road.

[Sigh]

Yeah. 18 Wheeler. Just. I mean, raging inferno on the side of diesel, buddy.

[Godwin]

In the middle of nowhere.

[Phil]

Diesel burns hot, boys.

[Sigh]

Buddy. It was so hot that it was on the side of the road. We were in the lane, the fast lane.

[Martin]

Life in the.

[Sigh]

And you felt the heat through the truck.

[Phil]

Oh, no.

[Martin]

Oh, like.

[Sigh]

And we're going 50 miles an hour.

[Martin]

Yeah, you should have spent.

[Phil]

No. Diesel. Diesel burns hot because.

[Sigh]

Oh, after I thought about it, it's like Goblin. Why did we slow down?

[Godwin]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Sigh]

What if that thing goes boom about the time we get right there.

[Martin]

You just keep going.

[Sigh]

Now the doors were open.

[Godwin]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

We didn't see nobody on a. On a very quick inspection, mind you, but Philip did call the state police and turned it in because it was just a big dummy. 18 wheeler on Fireball.

[Phil]

Fire department, they usually just let it burn out. Well, hey, look, it'll melt.

[Sigh]

They were just more concerned about it.

[Phil]

Will melt metal and all this. The operators east of hot.

[Sigh]

But I guess he went all the way to the tree line because as hot as that fire was on the road, I could. You couldn't stand by it. I mean it again. We go 50 miles an hour and you felt the heat come through the truck.

[Phil]

Diesel barns hot.

[Sigh]

I got it real hot. I got it on video. But it's, you know, it's kind of a weird.

[Phil]

I've seen. I've seen where one's burnt. I just let it burn out. Let wasn't much of the truck.

[Sigh]

Hey, whoever made the truck though, kudos to you because this Thing's on fire. And the headlights were still working.

[Godwin]

Yeah, they were.

[Sigh]

When we got past it, the headlights were still on.

[Martin]

I said, it's probably totaled.

[Godwin]

You got that. That film on?

[Sigh]

Oh, I got the video of it. It's a. It's a crazy because from a distance.

[Godwin]

It looked like a little flicker.

[Phil]

Yeah.

[Sigh]

Yeah. We were all trying to decide what's.

[Godwin]

Going on up there.

[Sigh]

I said, that's a fire, man. Then they talked me out of it. And then we got closer and I could see the smoke. I said, no, buddy, that's a fire.

[Martin]

It's on fire.

[Sigh]

That's a. That is a fire. Here we go. Let's send it to Johnny D, since he can pull this up.

[Godwin]

Johnny D. Yeah.

[Sigh]

It's a big.

[Phil]

Yep.

[Sigh]

Hold on. God. One narrating.

[Martin]

I didn't know that.

[Sigh]

What is this? That's far.

[Phil]

Far.

[Sigh]

That is a.

[Phil]

That's a far there.

[Sigh]

I don't know, but you're a little closer to it and I'd like to be. Yeah.

[Phil]

I tell you, Diesel. Barn's hot.

[Sigh]

Look at this thing. Good.

[Phil]

It won't be nothing left of that truck.

[Martin]

All right, I got a texture, but that was crazy.

[Sigh]

I mean, that was at like 1:30 in the morning, man, like right outside Shreveport.

[Phil]

It was one that I saw. It burned up. All that was left was the rims.

[Sigh]

Yeah. I don't know. We didn't go back and check on it. We called the state police and everything else was burnt, whatever that mile marker was, and said, hey, there's a truck on fire and there ain't nobody there. So.

[Godwin]

Yeah, I said, you can't miss it.

[Sigh]

We figured. We just assumed, like, because you saw it, man, you could see it from two or three miles away.

[Martin]

There'd be somebody there by now with.

[Sigh]

The water hose or that the state police would at least be aware of it. But that guy acted well. Philip got on the phone with him, he acted like this was all new news with the dispatcher. I was like, man, I just hope whoever it was, I hope everything's okay.

[Godwin]

Yeah, I like seeing the doors open because it makes me think that, yeah.

[Sigh]

Both doors were open and you. There was nothing noticeable inside, and they're.

[Godwin]

Not going to be standing anywhere near it. It was so hot.

[Sigh]

No, that's how hot that thing was. It was incredible. But that's wild. Hey, we've had another fun day, man. We filled this one up. So when is this going to air? A week from tomorrow, so. Oh, okay. Not quite Thanksgiving yet, but we're. We're Getting there, not Thanksgiving.

[Martin]

You let me close it out.

[Sigh]

Yeah, close it out. I'm just.

[Martin]

We're going to rip another band aid off here. I lost my grandmother. Wow. Yesterday morning from when we're filming this. It'll be a little ways and, you know, it's tough. I've been through a lot of weird deaths this year. This one, she was 91. She told us a couple weeks ago she was ready to go. She was ready to be with Jesus. And so we know that we have that hope through Jesus Christ that we know exactly where she is. She's with my Uncle Joe and my granddaddy.

[Phil]

Oh.

[Martin]

Didn't think I was gonna cry, but my dad has been taking care of her, and I just want to honor him. And he sent me a Bible verse this morning. Second Corinthians 1, 3, 4. Praise be to God and Father, Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. If you listen to us, you're probably on board with the whole Jesus Christ of Nazareth thing, and thank you for that. But if for some reason you're here and you don't know him, I don't know how you do it.

[Phil]

A.

[Martin]

And there is a way for hope. There is a way to be comforted when life sucks, and it is only through Christ you find that.

[Phil]

Man, you don't know what you're missing.

[Martin]

You really don't.

[Phil]

You really don't.

[Sigh]

Amen to that.

[Godwin]

Amen.

[Sigh]

Oh, man.

[Martin]

That's how I'm going in that one.

[Sigh]

All right, boys. Well, I was going to leave that band aid on, but I. I'm glad he took it. Yeah, he did say that, but I wasn't going to bring. I wasn't going to be the one to start peeling it. So if y' all wonder why we ain't talked about four, now we're just going to let him get to that point.

[Phil]

So.

[Sigh]

No, we love y'. All. Thank y'.

[Phil]

All.

[Sigh]

Lift up the Owen family in prayer, because no matter whether you're ready for it, they're ready for it, or all the things. Death is still hard, man. It's still. It's final here on this earth. It's not the end, thank God, but for here it is the end, while we're still stuck on this planet. So if you're struggling through this is the holiday season coming up. Lots of weird. Lots of weird things happen around holidays where people you now, remember these holidays for certain things. Lord knows that's the case with my family. And so, man, just cover people in prayer, man. It's awesome. Lift each other up. Be thankful.

[Martin]

Uncle Joe's got to be guiding me through that turkey this year, because that was his job. And now me and Lauren are taking it on ourselves.

[Sigh]

But now he gets to cook it for his mama again.

[Martin]

Man, that Thanksgiving in heaven is going to be legit. Well, you got crescent rolls and the turkey are there.

[Sigh]

Yeah, and didn't you just hear it? Phil just killed two. Cotton, Mouse up. We'll see y' all next time right here in the duck call room, y'. All.

[Martin]

Love you guys.

[Phil]

We're out.
