The John Clay Wolfe Show – Episode #142 – February 13, 2026

Episode Overview

This episode of The John Clay Wolfe Show, powered by GiveMeTheVIN.com, delivers a classic, wide-ranging Wolfepack conversation filled with cars, wild storytelling, biting humor, musical riffs, sports banter, and the usual irreverence. John and the crew riff on everything from Easter family rituals (and dysfunction), to car-buying calls, to midget wrestling, excessive drinking, southern stereotypes, and beside-the-point debates about legality, sex, and drugs. The show wades through on-air technical trouble, takes audience calls, and drops memorable one-liners—always with an unpredictable, provocative energy.

Quote, [02:11] Turley: “It’s like not really being pregnant. You're either in or you're out.”

9. Southland Stereotypes, Dipping, and Grandma's Snuff

[140:40+/-] John prompts calls from listeners about grandmothers who dip snuff—and the lines absolutely light up. Stories of grandmas dipping (or snorting) powdered Levi Garrett, using “snuff jars” as drinking glasses, and spitting as a remedy for bee stings.
Quote, [143:03] Caller: “My great grandmother used to dip the powdered snuff and she'd spit it in a little golden platoon…”
[145:17] John: “Turley, are you a believer now? …This is real!”

[79:20+] Extended riffing on radio business, inside jokes about classic DJs (Shotgun Tom Kelly, Casey Kasem), and the harsh economics of the broadcast world.

12. Drinking, Stress, and The Southern Way

[125:30+] John gets real about drinking more as business and personal pressures mount (“I don’t have a woman to report to…”). The team shares their own vices and approach to “celebratory” or stress-induced drinking.
[126:34] “I don’t want alcohol. I’m not craving alcohol. I’m craving cold beer…”

13. Music, Jokes, and Outrageous Endings

The show closes out with more audience calls, requests for “dipping grandma” stories, and signature bits about blue jeans, whiskey, and holiday joy.

Technical Difficulties

A running theme throughout the episode: the show repeatedly drops off-air (“thanks to Westwood One satellite!”), prompting the crew to riff on technical issues, lost affiliates, and “Jesus knocking them off the air for being politically incorrect.”
