Give me a hell. Yeah, yeah. Now here's Steve Austin. All right, everybody. Welcome to Steve Jobs and Joe. I'm coming to you from the Broken Skull Ranch down here until infections came down here for a couple of days on my days off from Broken Skull Challenge, which we're filming right out there. And I would no say California. And I'll tell you what, man, women working on top of a mountain in a desert for about three weeks. We got about four or five more weeks of film and left and has been hotter than blazes out there. So I'll tell you what, when it came down here to the Broken Skull Ranch in July and August, those are the hottest months down here. And I always kind of think, Man, I've been in the marina. I don't turn into a weather sissy when I go down in a South Texas, that heat is going to punch me in the mouth. Well, not this time. It's a little humid. It's a little muggy because we've had so much rain down here. But as far as the heat goes, man, I've been working in a sand blaster. So each morning when I get up and I work out outside there about my trailer on a set of Rockets Go Challenge as the way the canopy is set up on my little gym out there on my set up, a sun comes up. And man, if you don't get your workout in by 7:30, it's like, Get Sun. Remember, I used to get a magnifying glass and use the sun to France. Want to crawl around on the sidewalk? That's what it feels like when you're working out at the Broken Skull Challenge when the sun comes up. So you got to get your well on early in the morning, and I usually get up out of bed about 5:30 every morning. Get a little cardio. Want to go get my swell? But that being said, with being out there working at the Broken Skull Challenge, getting that workout is one thing. But being on top of a mountain and desert all day long, putting these contestants through these challenges, the heat out here in South Texas ain't nothing but a thing like a chicken wing on a shoestring, so I've been able to really enjoy myself out here. I'm used to the heat. I've actually get my workout in. It's hotter than hell outside, but everything out here is very, very green because of all the rain we've gotten, and it's hot and muggy have been a couple of mosquitoes. I'll tell you one thing Oh, I miss my old Kawasaki mule. I take that thing ride every single time I get through with walk out there, and I would also take a little nap on that thing, and I've gotten really used to it and the way it handles in a way it drives. So I'm looking forward to getting that thing down here at the ranch when I get through filming on it. That being said, man, I've been having some killer workouts out here. I got up. Let me see what I do yesterday, man. I was pulling close to four five on a deadlift, which had a whole lot of weight for a lot of people who've been training for any amount of time. But I just recently started squatting seriously again the first time in about 15 years, and I recently just started deadlift and, you know, halfway seriously for the first time really ever. So I had a good back work out this morning and they should get shoulders on as soon as I finished to open as podcast, go out there and get Muswell on shoulders and traps, and then I'm going to get guns tomorrow. I'm heading back down to Edna, Texas, to visit my mother and father and my brothers and my sisters. We're having a little get together down here in South Texas, and I was down here today. Christian and I went down there and I didn't have anything to do from a podcast, and I'd been meaning to talk to my brother, Kevin. My brother Kevin is ten months younger than me, and he's probably probably the biggest Hellraiser out of all the Williams boys in our family. And that's a hell of a task because my older brother, Scott was held back in his younger days. I was always pretty mild back in the old days, and then I got to turn it up when I got in the business of pro wrestling. But Kevin Madden, that dude was crazy. And so I got a chance to visit with my brother and my other brother. Jeff is down from Kodiak. Alaska. So because I didn't have podcasts, I said, man has let me come on, would you shoot the breeze? And my brother, Kevin said, Man, I get nervous around cameras and recording devices. As a man, I just ask you some questions. I said, I do a show for the working man by the working man. We're just talking about you, man in the Coast Guard and all the jobs you've done. And he said, Okay, man. And here's a thing. So I go over to my brother's house and Kevin's house, and he lives right off the highway there. And my brother, Jeff, who's a carpenter, is helping him. They're tearing down a building in his backyard and the dump. The city dump is closed today, so they got all these boards and scrap and stuff like that in front of his house. And so they start myjob. And we went into Kevin's little bar, called the bullpen, and it's just this little place you'll hear about how it came to be on a podcast. So I'm just sitting there on an open mic. I got my Zoom recorder laid on a table and I didn't use my microphones because there was three of us and I only had two microphones. I don't want to pass the microphone back and forward, so I just laid my Zoom record on. It might be a little echo in there because I didn't have a filter on my mic, but once again hope you'll deal with it. This is a conversation with me and my brothers. Now here's the thing Kevin probably causes as much or more than I do, and I'm used to doing a family friendly show, and he's not used to talking without using a lot words. Of course, when he's around, kids and people are getting nervous at all. I mean, he's a class act, but you know, he's a great guy. So there'll be a couple of words or there will fly during his podcast, you know, say damn hell a*s or something like that. There might be a bullet in there. I'm I just want to give you a straight up only open so you can push the start button. Now there is no F-bombs, there's nothing like that, but you'll hear a couple of salt and pepper words on this podcast, so I would tell you to hit the start button if that's going to offend you, because this is a family friendly show and I still consider it family friendly, but we do drop a couple of just regular Four-Letter words just in the course of conversation. Nothing is gratuitous. Nothing is forced. It's just me sitting here talking with my brothers and trying to have a little bit of a conversation. I'm going back down to Edna tomorrow, and I already told Kevin I said, Hey, man, let's let's do another podcast, but I want to. I want you to tell some of your infomercial stories that you used to do on a telephone. And so he can you can use all the language that you want. And back in the day my brother was, he was famous for getting a couple of beers and many goalies doing one 800 infomercial numbers. And I asked some of the craziest damn question that you ever heard of. So I'm going to turn him loose when I go down here tomorrow at Division of Oaks and when Kristen go down and hang out a little bit, I'm a corner, my brother and he's going to share some stories. But anyway, the podcast, you're going to hear just me, Kevin and Jeff sitting in the bullpen, shooting the breeze, trying to keep it about as family friendly as we can. And if you remember way back in the day, Jeff is on a podcast sometime around January, plan his guitar and doing stuff like that. And he didn't play his guitar on us saying, It's just us kind of shooting the breeze about my brother, Kevin coming up and all that stuff. But hey, man, I'm having a blast down here to Broken Skull Ranch. We're going to be down here another couple of days, and then we're going to go back down to Edna tomorrow. And then we would come back here and clean this place up and then head back to Los Angeles because I got about another couple of days off where I finally need to cool my jets and take a little bit of a break between the break and filming sessions. We got about seven days off, so I can kind of get out of that sand blast or get out of those UVA and UVB rays. And I'll tell you what, man. The grass out here at the Broken Skull Ranch in South Texas is waist high. And we've been trying to mow all that damn grass down, but it's been. It's so thick. Ted's been out there mowing and first and second gear and busted out the back window when he hit a rock with that shredder. So we're kind of down on the mower right now. We've got to get that thing repaired for safety reasons. But other than that, everything is going good out here. I've never seen more water on his property than I've seen right now on this trip. Every single tank pond, whatever you want to call it, is overflowing with water. They're full to the brim. You can't put no more water in these things. So we're in a good place and everything's great on the hill. It's fun to be out here. It's a little bit frustrating because the grass is so tall. I've been so busy. It's hard to get down here and mow. But as soon as I stop rolling cameras on a broken skull challenge, I got to go down to San Diego for two days of work on August 8th and 9th. And when I get done with that, I'm going to haul a*s back down here to the ranch and I'm going to get on my damn commode a tractor, as Stacey would call it, when my 15 foot bat wing shredder. And I am going to mow this place for two solid weeks, however long it. Takes me to get all this grass down, it might take me three weeks, that's how much grass there is. And that's how thick it is. And I will mow this place and get it looking like a park again, because right now it looks so damn rough. It is ugly, but it is green anyway. The podcast I have for you today is me shooting the breeze with my brother. He's nervous about being on the show, and I'm just trying to get him to loosen up and shoot the breeze. I think you'll enjoy it. You might not, but I think you will. But before we get started, I just want to say I'm going to start releasing some of the bad a*s T-shirts I'm wearing this year on Broken Skull Challenge, Amaryllis shows on Broken Skull TRANSCOM and at Pro Wrestling T's.com/ Steve Austin. And again, thanks to Ryan and all the gang at Pro Wrestling Tees for cranking out all shirts on such a quick turnaround time for film and rockets goal challenge, I think you'll dig some of the new designs are now becoming a real quick.

I take it out of thin air in my brother's house, Trevor Williams over in head to Texas and my brother Jeff Williams, who yahad a blend of dark now on the back of the Christmas days. Yeah, yeah, yeah. New Year's Eve, man. Man, that was a good show. We did like two shows, didn't we? Yeah, I got a lot of feedback all through shows, and I was over talking to dad because we got him busy. Mom and dad Chris and I came out of the ranch just to get a little work, to see the family and everything. And so you got some new songs? Oh yeah. Well, I don't dare. I said, What does that ladies a*s? And I got to watch later to this family friendly show where you will trademark your day of songs. You can settle for copyright or do something. I to figure I'm working on the same kind of stuff he'd been telling me for. I don't know how many years I know. I think the last time you dropped a couple of single songs out because you don't want to get them out because you wanted someone to go Jaglom now because you have a trademark. But anyway, you need Gutierrez busy. You have to thank my brother. So here's here's what's happening. I'm sitting on a table is six feet long. It's about three foot wide. It's like a dinner table, but said we're at when my brother Kevin's house, and this is what he calls the bullpen and this bar and there's pearl beer. They're like bearded Lone Star stuff all over the walls. The clock's license plates is like a great atmosphere, and I've known it when he likes it up over Saturday or Sunday when he ain't working. Somebody would come over here and it's got a beer joint. Here's the thing about my brother, Kevin Kevin's probably the craziest out of all the Williams brothers it is. Why don't we rock? You're kind of crazy to borderline stupid on. Someone says you made me real stupid, but Kevin's probably too crazy. I call him the other day as a man of would be down there. Check it out, mom and dad. I said, Man, because I've kind of the road I've been doing my show Brothers Go Challenge. I wanted to give up. I guess that's why I knew he was a damn Jeff Angel fan. I don't know s**t, but I get nervous when the cameras start rolling in the corner. Start doing as your man. I shall be just, I mean, just give her a one for Kevin over like nervous about your cat, a rebel rocket. You're kind of a long time ago who was at that? We are. We should always watch The Brady Bunch. Yeah. So you can. I'm 50 and Kevin is ten months younger than me and you're forty five. Yeah, man. Seemed like you should be older. I mean, younger than forty five. Nobody cared when they were born. Yeah, we were just such a long time ago. They seem like you should be thirty five. Yeah, but anyway, you're forty five year old and dirt, you're almost no Kevin Kevin over your quiet as a church mouse. Yeah, we clam up, but I'm going back to The Brady Bunch. Remember, Cindy Brady was on that show, and the light of my camera came over? Oh yeah, she knew what. I can't get a free snap of it right now. I can do that. Yeah, we need it. Hey, man, tell me about the ball here because it's your bar. You bought this house, what, seven years ago? Seven years ago? What is this part of the this place? Where was this always this room? Or was it a garage and you converted into the bar? Yeah, this was the garage two car garage. And then Jeff came down and he got this entire place for me. And all this stuff in here is hard. You, you go to the bathroom and he did everybody to work in here and that's named Jeff Place in a bathroom. That commode and you get a flush, I think real. Jerry Brown. Yeah. Know it seemed to work. Yeah. If someone forgot to tell you you got a boat, that thing to floor, it's hard to find good help. I got a little bit of a bug. Worked out a similar thing with Katie Holmes. We had a real big problem. But here's the thing. Wow, we're all about our vision. And every time Jeff, come look at my brother. Jeff is a carpenter. He lives in Kodiak, Alaska. So every time he comes down and you work security now. Yeah, my brother Kevin was in the Coast Guard for six years. Twenty six years younger, I thought about it every. I never got to brag about it. Forty six years in Coast Guard, but every time Jeff comes into town, you get his a*s over here building interior and stuff. But yeah, I've got a construction thing going on here. Kevin had a big old wooden big one, Chad. Yes. Yeah. Tore down. I'm got a new Morgan building. We're going to get something inside you. Well, here's the thing we wrote in a town called Kevin Jim, and I'm coming over the pike. Yes. I can't remember where he live. He said, Hey, man, just hanging out left on. 59 it right there. Bye bye from battles. And I mentioned I go by. I saw trash everywhere in the city. Dump is closed today. It's all that big bill and Becker selling and half it all around the the House. Yeah. As soon as I saw white trash, I do at the Williams House. That's kind of hurting our own progress. We can't take it back to the Moore. Yeah, I know if you have the trash everywhere. Yeah, yeah, it was. When you don't put your on storage bill back here, you're going to get out, probably by 12 or 10. Well, here's the thing, man, I got, I think in my back yard I got a six by eight or something like that. And now every time I go to Home Depot and I'll see that Big Mac daddy, I wish I got that. Oh yeah, biggest damn thing. You can get back here regretted. You know, that's what I want, but I'm also replacing 18 windows with a big remodel job. So I'm. Much more retirement boats have ordered all new windows for herself. The other day, energy efficient, they're supposed to be here in another week so that you get it down below what kind of ones? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Home Depot. So we are going to start stuffing it here. Come in it or, you know, we're going to go special water, special water size that fits the fifth the whole everything. Well, we all get 10 things I a beam of interior decorating. I got to go to her mom's. I come over and some draperies for it and they go here in the car. Now we actually hired a painter to repaint the entire outside of the house. Since Jeff's done this to all of our course, we have decided on that. Yet here with all the color we have now. I didn't notice when I drove a green ring right away because I know how you go really big w paint on Saturday. Well, couple of yeah. Oh, and look for the house with a W on. Yeah, yeah, I mean, the only problem I had to be on your podcast today is that you got in on a family friendly show and that's not so easy for me and you, Jeff, to do together. I know that's a lot, but Kevin's all my pen and a four letter word. Otherwise, he would just say yes or no. That's true. But he's one of those customers that I know. I don't know if I'm talking about somebody. God comes good and I'm saying that he's a good customer. That just means he's probably one of the best in the world. You write about Richard Pryor, George Carlin, you must be so very hamstrung. It's almost like you've got an injury to his vocal cords. Yeah, I want to say I like when I was on year in January, I thought it was the the other version would be the family first. And when you were throwing some F-bombs and stuff up, yeah, you know, they had to do a little bit of editing. We did a little bit editing tournaments and got out and I bleep a on now. But it all is going according to what show we've got going on today's Monday. I got to turn the show and we get right back to the ranch. I got send it over the station, over at Beverly Hills and I don't want to. I want to put the damn thing together. I can't tell you something. Come on, we're taught you a little bit better than Coast Guard because coming up in a, well, it was all of his kids. He was all one of the most hair raising kids. There was, you know, we got a lot of trouble. Oh yeah. But then I went my way down at Athletic Road and you went, now that party road, you and your damn friends out there drinking beer. And I was always yelling at the one to go, Shut up. Yeah. Six, Right? Yeah, I did drink beer raising their rage out of your mouth. Shut up. But anyway, so may I tell you what? He was raising hell, and I was like, Man, what is this kid going to do with his life? And so how did you decide to just up and join the Coast Guard? Because that turned out to be one of the best moves you can make a twenty six years and how to respect a guy when you come out. So what made you put the Coast Guard versus anything else? Well, I'll tell you from about kindergarten, I wanted to do nothing but join the army from kindergarten all the way through high school. All or nothing to do but join the army infantry, right? Because I to fight. So anyways, as Junior High School, the company I was working for, Summer Camp, just went out of business, so I didn't have a summer job. Well, coming up, right? Sorry where he's running around? No. Yeah, he got ran for you and all the records. Yeah, all the recruiters came to town, the Army, Navy, Air Force, you know, range goes forward. So anyways, I talked to Army Guy, so I want to go to boot camp this summer between my junior and senior year. He's I can't do that yet. Graduate first and Coast Guard guy heard me. He's a Hey man, I can change boot camp right now. I never even considered the Coast Guard until he told me that I had to cancel the best decision I could make, you know? And I first came here say, I'll do four years, get on out or hell. Twenty six years later, I'm retiring, you know? So yeah, here's the thing if you're going to when you retired due to water retire, it was mandatory retirement. Could you better start it? No, I could go on for more years. The only reason I retired because my wife got offered a schoolteacher job in our hometown and they're hard to come by. Our town are so small and this is where I wanted to retire. Yeah, so that's the only reason I retired at that time. But I'm glad I did. I got a great job now, and I love being back in the hands of Texas. But she doesn't matter. She I didn't know if I could let the cat out of the bag that the brother of a global icon of the national treasure lives in Texas. And there's a big W fan. Also, I was asked to drop out and there's much pressure from that. My out stop by and tell him him and his wife a lot and have a beer. That's all. I've got a on here. Yeah, you got a big trailer. By now. Got a lot of trash underneath to get hauled off. He's going to tell you about the boot camp. Was it tough? I was basically, what do you call it? Yeah, it's boot camp. Yeah. Do I remember you? Who's going to run track for a little bit? And you did. But then you started drinking beer. Oh yeah. This is not an official record, but Guinness was looking for you, and you'll see I think you was the youngest kid to drink like six man beers in high school. Career. So how did you get to boot camp because like your damn beer and you weren't really into fitness that much? How was boot camp? I mean, I was only 17 years old. I went, so you know, they I assume they started me up slow. But I mean, I made it. It was it was more tough. Just a mental wise. Take all these tests and memorizing so many different things. But the first part was the easy part because you never got much of a student. I mean, you. I mean, I got a world. We're all brothers. But you didn't like school? No, no. You know, every day when we come home, do homework, youth study enough to try to make it hard. I said enough and make a sandwich. I stopped learning right now. So I thought about how that was. So yeah, I know my take. I know they're getting harder. But I just want to say I didn't get past it, so I knew I wanted to go to college, you know? Okay, but then when you went to the Coast Guard because you were on, I guess, a couple of times or two locations and use off cutter? Yes. So being in Paris, Texas, yes. But what was your because you that being a radio man and then you end up being something else called operation specialist? I got hot about it. Manolo Typekit Yeah, yeah. But if you did, you know what he was? Oh yeah. Oh yeah, it is. Because of the Coast Guard. Yeah. Hey, yeah, yeah, this is best. He must have known as have another three. But when you say, damn it all. All right. Okay, now I'm talking about that. So when you went in, what did you you went in as one and you worked up to, yeah, when as a seaman recruit, I know my final couple of stations. I was a chief petty officer down, and that's where as I try to go. And then that's where all the good jobs were for me anyways. The one night you would be like Washington, D.C. and stuff I want, but not now chief is the way to go and the Coast Guard chief O'Hara, any way for retirement. I say that that's that's the only similarity between the foreign business and the Coast Guard as a seaman recruit. True, true. How would you go? Well, you know, we had a guy on board our ship in Alaska. His last name was Spain's. So what I call his name was on a loudspeaker seeming to stage an order. I think this could have been the original script. Yeah. If they went that, what do you make of this? But tell me this, you were somehow some way you're done. I'm done here in New Orleans, Louisiana. Yes. Based on what both Noah and I run on a boat in New Orleans, as at the federal building downtown New Orleans. But you got transferred out there right before Katrina hit. Yeah, we moved out like six weeks before Katrina hit, and we hope to be your second step. Yes. Mm-Hmm. And matter of fact, I was supposed to be in New Orleans for two more years, but I got so bored with my job. I called the guy in Washington, DC and begged him to send me to Alaska, and I flew. I was lucky there's one owner nobody wanted and that's what I wanted. So they moved me just like that. But that was your second tour of a Kodiak. What did you like so much about Kodiak that you wanted to go back just to the fishing? The first time I was in Kodiak, I hadn't been in that long. Didn't really have any money and I was on a ship that was going all the time. The first was my ship was going nine months at sea as my home for three months. And I loved the fish over there, but I never got a chance to do any of it. So I told my wife I want him back. One final tour the land so I can go fishing every single day. And that's what I did for three years, although I didn't fish. Yeah, but I know there was a good time to tell me when the times were so good. Are you exposed to where you stand in extreme story? Damn, salmon on the banks, could you tell me to somebody, but not the signature of the first year or so poor? I couldn't afford any more work and I broke them. All right, so I got a big ol rock sort of national salmon, an eight. And I've chuck. I'm sure that's true story. I've got it. Yes. Yeah, yeah, that's it. When I first moved to the first Gulf War, I was they moved me a temporary housing for 30 days. Then they said, All right, we have your house ready. It's time for your move. Well, hell, I don't have a vehicle. I went to the store, got a shopping basket, and that's how I moved to my new house first. Or I push that basket up down a hundred times. Yeah, that's true story that I came in and I rode a bicycle to work in the snow from first year. You know, starting out military, you don't make much, you know, I think my first paycheck was $295 for two weeks. So that's why I started shopping cart. I borrowed it at the same time and check it out when you Kodiak and you ran a bicycle back and forth to work because I learned this one when I met Christian 11 years ago, when I come to Marina del Rey, Venice, California, Los Angeles. And may I tell you what? I had never seen so many bicycle chains. All of you didn't change your bicycle. It was gone. And then you get these rookies out there, they just chain up on the tires and you just chain up your name tied. They don't take the damn hooves off and you might be gone in a tire will still be, you know, chained to the post. Yeah, but you have to change the damn thing up way back in a day because it probably honour system over there. Well, I was the only idiot on a bicycle. So, you know, not Spartacus. You were the smartest guy, but you still want one time because you are really the whole way home turned out to be. Yeah, you got to ride out front. Hey, man, one of your things that always impressed me, Kevin, was he always was a hard worker. Now I did a show up to work man show man. Like a lot of times, he used to keep you out of trouble or sometimes just keep you from drinking beer or just because you wanted to make more money. Man, you was washing cars, but you were going to run a car place until there were pizzas. Well, what kind of job did you give it? A shot? Oh, I flip flop burgers in McDonald's worker security all over. But the hardest job I ever had and I did it twice was working hard. I I got all respect from guys about working with. Well, my first day on the job, I say, you can be a cook. I don't know anything about it. So I gave me a picture every hamburger exactly how to make it. So I started making make it just like that. And so I guess that's his lifelong dream. Be a couple of dollars, 20 years. He can take on a picture of what he said. You'll learn the hard way like I do. I said, Think you're my Christian background. I learned the hard way, you know, every, every single place. I've mistakes and had always had another job at the army during your partner years, just because I didn't make much money and I was riding bulls for bull run four years later part. But I was making decent money. I did it because I love going to Las Vegas to love going to New Orleans bottle and wasting my real money. So I worked my butt off for how long and I go to Vegas and spend it. So it's like my real money. A lot of good. You play money. Yeah, yes. Yes, I can say ask, OK, do you work your a*s off? I keep it down. All right, I guess that's going to kill me. We got to get around the table. Hey, let's talk about the rodeo stuff for a little bit because that we used to make me laugh. Banks made me nervous, nervous, long tail cat room full of rocking chairs. Were you on a damn bull? And what possessed you to get out there and start writing bamboo? Could you started doing what you'd held? I guess my first one was 18 years old. Here I am. Six more call for bull riding. Oh, it is a lot of getting used to about PBR stuff. Oh yeah, yeah. And it's changed forever. Those guys are trading like a real Oh yeah, yeah. And it's the sports chain, but you're tall. My point is for Bull Rider. So what in the hell could know what we've always known to the prison rodeo and I feel I don't remember. Yeah. And you remember Jeff, where you are today? Is you maybe a family? You probably back here grabbing a diaper so you had a prison rodeo? And so was that was that would turn you on or give you a hankering to get on the back of a bull? I think what started it when I used to work cows and you can mean you, it's got to work in cows. And at the end of the day, that was, you know, a few calves, you know, like maybe cows. But it was a blast. And as I got older, I had some friends that were running and I said, Man, I get on the bull. So Dad's. And I say, dad can go a little better, but we got his man that bulls don't kill you. So, so my dad didn't help me at all with bull rider. He told me, You know, Arkansas calf roping? Well, I couldn't roping anything. So basically, I went and got some equipment and I thought, I don't know, and that's all I rode for two years for. Actually, I went through two schools and actually learned how to ride from from the pros. So here's the thing we're back of today. You know, we grew up always been in the cattle business and everybody thinks, you know, they think, Oh, shoot, Steve, you're just a pro wrestler. Why? No, no, my wife's been cattle. Miss my dad sold insurance for have made a lot of work, but he was always in Calabasas with his, with his brother, Norman, and then we'd be out there and yoga. Marvin Kalb. I remember we'd get out there and start loading and cows, but we'd better look in cash, you know, maybe take a little corrals, you know, put the phone back and grab out of your wisdom and put me in that shelter home for an hour and a day. And next come whiz by the bay and things kick in at you and me and Scott. What's coming up on the backside? And you know, Scott and Scott was always trying to be a cowboy hat hook. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I don't know if you're right, you're right it that, y'know, hip can be good for them. We used to call Dairy Queen to put my order in our scout or hip care. Yellow, like everybody else, was good getting then cows moving and make, I guess you'd say another day. Yeah, well, he was on a horse. I've always thought Shetland Pony, so I think it was like moving in the right direction. I yell at them, Yeah, I couldn't get it to offer them encouragement, and what I broke off was wrong way, so I tried to give it a damn. I got knocked off by a horse, by branch, and I fell down and broke my arm. So then we had to go in and get. Cash at work in cash for about two, three hours. I get down debt as an hour. I think my arm broke. Shut up, getting going to give it away. We went home. We all had Carl. She had on us. I mean, we're sweating all that you remember? Oh yeah. This is where it was. And I finally, I finally got home. I can manage it. Oh, I do, mom, it's broken. You know what happened when I got knocked off my horse? Well, better taking it x ray. Won't I come back with a cast on my arm dad? Very well, actually. Let's do you. So what did you think when you started riding him? I don't know what your favorite movies or one that you really like to watch on eight seconds. Yeah. Goodbye Lane Lane. So what was your worst Bobo ride injury or worst one? I mean, it hurt a few times while a broken jaw, and that's about the worst one, but broke my tailbone. You know, I feel good about a broken ribs, ripped leg, broken arm. But I had anything major, you know, knock me out of the game. I finally quit because of age and I couldn't stay on anymore. Yes, every major media player had had surgery. Yeah, I never thought you got hurt like that. Yeah, I remember you talking about the mom and dad hated me. Ramble so much when that call. Hey, we got whatever we got. When come up, we got some type of deal. We want you to come and I've got shoes. I can't go. I I guess I got word that we hear about it. They break down for eight weeks. So once he got his injury. So what was doing your broker job? Because I can't imagine you acting like a deaf mute for that happening? And then why are you sure? Good afternoon, Hitchc**k Texas is on a Wednesday night, and I remember Voight wore a black black Angus bull and then I wrote in for eight seconds, but he's sitting in a corner. The bullfighter couldn't get him out to spend. My time is up. I trying to get off, so I did my rope try to be back in just a bit. This man right here. So I got a scar. One side of the face running down. So that's where I came from that day, from a big crack to go bust me right in the mouth and I was down on the ground digging an arena for my buddy acquaintance from the fence. He said, What are you doing? I said, I'm looking for my teeth. There in your mouth. And he told me to come home again. Just get a beer. You'll be alright if you told me, Hey. So what they did when they did, you go to the doctor? Two days later, he kind of got hurt. Always pulled it off. Just like this bruised up a little bit outside. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I better go to the doctor again. So I figured he would probably say, send it to a job, move over your name and want to get out of the day care. No, because it's been a couple of days already, and in order whatever did, I went to the hospital Galveston. Yeah, and I a limo. But I can't remember all day this was 19 and whatever early 80s or late 80s buddy or I got to figure you broken. Where can make up a bit of a cheese sandwich at one thing away from your mouth and eat? Yeah, that's as it did not like it, figured a we're going to going to heal by itself, which is why to just give it even shut up and go, this is my favorite. I mean, I can only say, Yeah, I just got a telephone. I can't figure out what's going on. Oh, you should go back this weekend. You get somebody to do you. Yeah. Here's one. Hey, you were there? I was doing a monster truck show one time over Texas, where Kevin was limited. Oh man. Yeah, it's a motel. Crazy Bastard. Come through the monster truck show and go run across Jump and Rick and barrel on directly how to maintain my, which was some girls or something come by. And then y'all took off running and we all must address. No. Yeah, Jeff have come back for a beer stand and with pride, it's been raining. It was muddy as hell for you right now, but is I fell backwards and I just laugh now. But I never spoke with beer, though, so I got to hand it to. One of the girls came in when we got there. The promoter gave Jeff, a former army officer, will ATV to drive around here where we met her like girls or whatever. Yeah, in an across the arena, they say, Hey, y'all, give us ride back for one girl going back with you, hanging on to Jeff Long and that girl said, Hey, can I get with you, a former wife proffering? Nothing really known, I guess, but she had her way back. A girl, you have come here and hell, I would appeal and I fell down. And it's one that I've always been a back. When I started a professional wrestling by 1990, and Kevin was one of my biggest supporters. And what were you living when you come to Dallas, Texas, to watch me in a sport? I've just moved from Alaska to Galveston, so. I drove the golf cart immigrant from Galveston, Texas, all the way to Dallas just to see my dumb a*s when I don't get my a*s kicked on TV. So I'm like going to go see a super strong man, a man that families at a sports tournament. Dallas, Texas, and Cavett shows up. We go in together and I'm just a general in the business. I'm barely get in, you know, because I just think I just got smart enough to do business one. You know what? Real money? That was like a heartbreaker to me. I thought it was real man in a way. We walk in a sport to even the smallest, the sport of tournament of great films of all time. It's not like piss, stale beer, hot dogs, popcorn and sweat. Energy is a modern hellhole. Sorry a*s. As best as white side metal roof. And there's just no wooden benches that place atmosphere like crazy in a way. We walk in doors about 8:00 in the morning because in the early and we walked in and Mandela had already had the popcorn cooking up. I think the show started at 10:00 a.m. The television table and the popcorn was being made. It got the hot dogs on the roasters and guy I walk in here with. Kevin can walk right beside me and the guy who said, it's got to be honest. Yeah, I'm thinking myself, I'll fix this bagel. Yeah, I'll take this back to their country and build it more than that. Oh, what did you think about that? A sport touring back in the day? Oh man, the first game in there? I mean that stuff. Yeah, first of all, our senior wrestling, just walk at the Coliseum like that. And it was great to me, you know, and because I got to see on TV for a short time and I was in Alaska, I guess the U.S. Navy was carried on some channel. So I got so you're just a couple times when you're just starting out first, I'm saw sorry in person. And I love that place. I think we were there twice that weekend and you also wrestled at the all all palace and tower Typekit. Yeah, made a road trip and I had someone reach out to me a few months ago and my email question to Steve Artichokes. It all piles back and thought about, remember? Well, Russell. Yeah, I don't know. I was fine being on the road where I know in Dallas you recipe what you have because he must have some built in starter whipping around. Yeah, yeah, there was beat me with kendo sticks and leather belts, weightlifting belts. You know, the annual challenge. You face long blonde hair kind of about having a good look at their, you know, the currency work by Jeff Weinberg appear, you know, I don't worry about it and we're friendly. Other family friendly, Burt. Oh, do you think you could have enjoyed life on the road and former pro wrestling because you're going to see for nine months at a time? Is that what you think? The thing about being a C, you're straight laced through your eyes, no beer or anything at all. But being on a road wrestling one man I've been, I've been to Morgan tonight, so not only been good for me, but being on a ship was great for me because we've gone for so long and we pull in every two weeks to port, call, you know, for two nights, refuel or whatever. But the Port Caldwell was that wild and woolly about that just kind of laid back over to this beer is wild. Phrases get fans wild as we pull into a sailors, said Brandy. Oh, thank you. Well, the places we pulled into our minds up in Alaska, we pulled the Dutch harbor. You know, world stuff is more of the time what's called the elbow room in the chamber because you got so many national personnel that driving down the Aleutian change. Okay, yeah, no, no. We're so yeah. Why is the toughest part of me? You get your small ones, you got you got all your emotions, you get fishermen from all over the world. That's where they gather as the king crabs or whatever, all the fish to catch. And so you got all your nationalities there, and it was so wild back in the day, you know, Playboy magazine said it was number one ranked. Duff was more a playboy, says it's true. Yeah, I wrote back and I wasn't that. Did you go looking for trouble? I was just thinking about that, and we'd rather have a good time for a glass of beer. But we never look for trouble. And no, I mean, in that charter because we know it's real. Yeah, we were short haired guys, you know, bringing having money. Both fishermen came in, they had a ton of money, so they were going to dump it. So they were getting on that. Yeah, yeah, I was. Yeah, and it was so wild back then days you had women from often use of flying up there to make a little money, and they had live bands from all of playing up there. So that's how often, you know, it's not that way anymore is now. So you have going forward how long you gonna stay there just long enough grand for you and then get out maximum we stay will be three days. I'll bring a steak. Yeah, yeah. And then, you know, it's back on the boat and each like, I'll sleep on a boat unless you got the money. You can get hotel room. Okay, now I'm going on a Coast Guard cutter. Yes, and tell me what the cutter does. Okay, the cutter I was on was a decommissioned, now retired, but it was a thirteen foot medium Dirk cutter, and we just patrolled the economic exclusive zone between the United States and Russia to keep all the illegal fishermen from poaching into our waters. And that was one of our jobs and our other job search and rescue. You're going to be a boat taking on water boat, catch on fire and you may get a call. You may be a nurse boat within a thousand miles to go rescue them, and it's going to take several days. You get there, but that's the way it works right now. So yeah, a lot of area to cover. I don't remember how many millions of square miles it is, but. That's all we do. But whatever investment there is, make sure they have all the gear that they needed. Now we run watch checks on them. Now we're here. How nerve wracking that is because I'm talking to a couple of situations where you hold a gun in your hand and in situations where you had people bought guns out. Right? Right. In Alaska, we didn't really come across it too much. I was just fishing and search and rescue. But on a law enforcement boat, I was only being passed. Our job was search and rescue because of drug enforcement. So, yeah, we pulled guns on some drug runners, also an illegal shark fishermen on the Mexican border. We want an illegal shark. Fishermen don't catch a shark out a seasoned observers or shark fishing season where they come across our waters. They fish every single day. I just saw on the news the other day and the Coast Guard busted some diners. Just something they do. They come across run these lines in a truck for supporters. What did you like better? The search and rescue stuff because you tried to help a brother out or just the enforcement of the law of the sea as far as not fishing and all that stuff? Now it was all good. I enjoyed a ship in Alaska just because it was so much bigger. You know, the boats being parents, I think we had like 18 people on board. It only stayed up for four or five days at a time, but I enjoyed the bigger boats and get to see different areas. But the job was basically saying, Well, a couple of times you told me yours is pretty rough seas and like you, because of the ship of being tossed around so badly, you'd actually get seasick even though you had sea legs. I mean, I'll get the hell out of here on Sunday, right? Yeah, up in Alaska. Of course, I never did get seasick. But you know, I like to Copenhagen, but at sea I go to the can a week or so rough. It is when a real candidate. But in Alaska and I had to seatbelt all my chair in office because you get thrown out of your chair, but you've been five foot series in the Bering Sea during wintertime. Summertime is not bad at all in wintertime that she's brutal, but I thought about my on a boat. I'm not near Marina del Rey and I got a buddy who got a 60 foot boat. We go back cleaner to Catalina Island and I did all my research and stuff like that, and I started thinking, Man, I mentioned the Pacific Ocean, but my stupid a*s. I've been riding around with dad and poor guy over 30 40 years and dad knows him. Bay and Bay's like back was hanging over all in Mexico. I'm like, Man, I think I need to keep off the boat. I just keep riding on the part of Norm and let him do I'll right and board backers and you get some people out there and they get their little bitty damn boat and their ocean is rough out there. Oh yeah. Last thing you need is for a global icon. ActionScript better floating around a life jacket boat capsized with Coast Guard to come rescue me when he's retired and the brother of the Coast Guard is right here, all at the end of I. I'm ready. No replacement ever dropped by the Coast Guard of Fiji. What? I was stopped by there that day. You think they let me go when I say hello to him, guy? Oh yes. Hey, hey man. My brother used to be a Coast Guard and up in that little. Love it, man. You know, they really like like one would joke about how come right back more up queue up old Jeffrey over here and ask you a couple of questions this way is brother sitting over here at 360 and gimmicks created in Texas? That's right. Three 16. Give us for your travels with me wherever I go. Right now it's a house with a W and a bunch of trash coming right back. Jeff and Kevin, the Steve Austin show.

We had to shut it down for the sound quality because y'all don't make that about. This award winning podcast. Ain't never worn a damn award for nothing. It's a one man cluster mark, and I take it with them wherever I go. I've got a queue of Jeff over here. You should be on my right side. You know Osama bin Laden and Kodiak for God. Dang, how long now? For years now, you end up in Kodiak and you're covered about trade and you've been right, a bunch of bad a*s songs. You son of a bunch of them on the show on a dime. We've got to get together, hopefully before I leave and can a couple more. Man, how long ago made Kodiak? You need to get your a*s back to Texas because I got a marriage like Texas back in Kodiak. That is me. You tell me. Oh yeah, yeah. Like Texas better. OK? You know, back where has been working on it? Yeah. Yeah, I'm yeah, working on it because I'm black. If I can get you black Ford F-150 out there, would you drive around when you get up in Alaska? I got a nineteen ninety five Toyota P one hundred t 100. Would you like a T one hundred or F-150 better? You know, comparison? F-150 OK. Well, total nerves. So good about trucks. We like to have, well, these two particular trucks and I just got to just a little single cab for the Toyota. We got a lot more ruthless, like I'm a little girl. So F-150, me, you know, you got four doors on that thing. You know, you got a lot more room, a lot more comfortable drive. It's a bigger truck. And you know that little Toyota, even though the key one hundreds are bigger than the than the old little Toyota's like like we see. Yeah, yeah, they drove a T. One hundred is what a tundra is today, right? You know, it's hundreds of big truck. So good a job you don't trim corners or you don't. Yeah, we do a remodel, work, building some decks, remodeling a little bit of roofing. They do it all up there, man. We'll think about it. There's there is no cheap manual labor like that here in Texas. Out here, you can hire a crew to do your roofing job or concrete work for next to nothing over in Kodiak. You know, if you're the contractor, you do it all. I mean, we've been, you know, I've been on job porn concrete. We do a roofing job, you know, stuff that I really don't enjoy doing as much as, you know, my mom and I kind of Forte's cabinetry and trim work what? I enjoy doing so up there. You know you to do it all. So you are you trying to work between your jobs and you're staying busy? Are you taking it? Are you getting any chance to go out and do the fishing again? We're talking about if you do anything like that because you grew up on vacation. Yeah, you spent as much time on a boat and as I do, you do an official, a bird you've got away. I've done a little bit with a little bit of halibut fishing on a boat, but I haven't done any of the salmon river fishing. I just I just can't. Maybe if I went out and did it, I might enjoy it. But I just, you know, I kind of fish and the like. I said, we grew up here about how I'm going to go out, go out an open boat, open air boat with beer. And, you know, hitting the back bays is, you know, fishing up. There's a lot of work, right? Because you know, you're hauling, you know, you're got to be carrying a covered boat. You get all your fishing gear on your rear, you're waterproof stuff and all that stuff, man, is just a way to just give time. You got a little girl, you know, she takes a lot of energy. What are you doing in downtime when you're working up there? Because when you go to when you go back and for part of the time, the Sun stays up 24 seven a minute and then it's dark before, for sure. But how does that work? Well, it's in the northern part is read 24 seven, but you might have like this time of year. Yeah, I mean, maybe four hours of. Almost darkness, you know, between like 12:30, five o'clock in the morning, but heavy, even though it doesn't get dark in Iraq. That's what people tell me. Well, they all work on all licenses. All hell, no. You quit five or six o'clock every day. You know, this go is the phones. I don't mean the up doing 10 O'Clock Man. I don't sit on a couch watching TV. You're going to bed, you know, or he was in Dallas while he was hanging with a band, playing in a band and doing your thing. Have you found anybody to hook up play with over as far as music goes or our band? Not really. Is there a bar scene up there in which boys play? I mean, you because you don't want is you? Yeah, yeah. There are some bars that I haven't. I haven't gotten out and try to get into my game, and we're going to do that. You got your kid and girl. Yeah, that to out in our show. So I got that. Yeah, yeah. You know, weekends, I mean, and plus I work a lot of weekends too. You know, we work probably at least two or three Saturdays a month, so you get a whole lot of down time. Do you have a little downtime? You know, I'm I'm writing songs, you know, so we need to get in there. So I've got a ride with me to do. I was telling your dad, Rob Ford, come over. I said, Well, I tell you what, if I'm on a podcast? I had year old emails. I said, Oh yeah, I had a whole email. People say, manager that music manager, manager, music. He said There is a you need to record an album, you need all of them put the damn thing out. I talk about that security guard job you're doing right now that I that part. How did you find the Security Council? You know, some back in the day in Alaska and you're doing some search and rescue stuff and the stuff with a gun on a Coast Guard, but now you can carry on your job, you can get through it. So you know, here in the Glock, forty five now, oh, you switched to a Glock? Yeah, I won't tell if you can. We'll ask when I first started. And so what made you change? Well, we got a new boss out there and he's a retired navy, retired a game of sorry, retired state trooper. Yeah. And so he took over and he put a lot of money into us and then got a top line outfit in. And we do a lot more the security, but we have the authority, we get speeding tickets, we do arrest, we do a lot. You know, we're going to read our guns. Yeah, sure it is. And if I write your ticket and you go to the local justice peace here in L.A. and they give you fire, we don't get the money and they keep the money for them. Actually question you, how dare you? We're going to nab Park and you pull a guy over. You'll get a speeding ticket. And there's so much lack of respect for law these days. I'm not going to go on a political tirade, but it is what it is when you pull out and I get pulled over by the police and I have on many occasions, I take my hat off, I get my sunglasses off, put them on dashboard or put my hands at 11:00 and 1:00 am a steering wheel so the cop can see my hand when he approaches that vehicle. And if you ask me for my license registration and I use a draftable with counsel, I say Yes, sir, I say, Do you mind if I go in my center console, you know, they'll open something up, reach my hands inside and you know what I'm doing? My question for you is there's a protocol involved there. And how do people treat you once you pull them over? Are they indignant? Are they wondering why they got pulled over? They got attitude. What's the atmosphere like? Well, normally when I pull them over, I'm pretty lenient. You know no more. I pull them over. They know what they were doing. And you know, you got to be going up to 50 miles per hour speed limit for me. Pull you over and look out there. They're treated with respect. Most of the time, because you're on private property, we have we have 10000 acres out there. So if you don't treat me with respect and I'll just take your property, you know you got people out there camping for weekends or a month at a time or whatever. So I'll talk tomorrow night. I don't like the rules. You can back and you can't get on out of here. So that's where you're going to go now. Okay, so you get this guy, you got to stay home and interrogated a little bit of an a*****e and give getting a little bit lip. So what's going to make him turn the camera around and get out of the property? Well, I think the few hours has been there, but it's a last resort. And he basically has no choice legally or illegally or take a stand for robbery and go to jail. This one thing which is still not what we arrested Michelle physically or were you call him? Well, we have no backup. We have three full time law enforcement with what we call them in, or we just call the sheriff's deputy and we have no problem hold them out for us. So I met a long time ago for my summer job. I used to work at one of marinas, a lot between marinas, anger management work and, you know, summer job. If that thing is still together, like, yeah, it'd be, I'd be really surprised me. You work on that same show. I work every bit of it. OK. So I'm at the marina. Actually, the marina building is still there, but the marina is gone. We took it out probably two months ago. That last tropical storm finally did the final damage to it. So hey, man, what did I like to actually have to get full by into the rain and have nowhere because. Man, over in Lake Bridgeport. They got a bunch of rain, that thing way up. I don't know how Lake Amistad did over by Del Rio, but what I'd like to come up the exact same as one option for we actually were actually let more out right now. But we are out of shape for comparative drought when we go down to 31 feet. And we had every single boat ramp closure. It was rough. How long would it take for that 31 feet to come back up to mount for fall? Well, this was a different, different system here, but it didn't take long at all once it started raining. You probably took two or three heavy rains to go for 30 one feedback full capacity. Hey, man, you were here when the rains hit not long ago and I was in California and Texas have been a rough long. But man was a real shocker. I got the news and all the flash floods were coming into Michael River came up. A lot of people were Wimberley know right outside asking where we were born. And they just got wiped out because it was so, so hot and heavy and I had never seen any kind of rain like it. Yeah, but but y'all got a good dose out here. Yeah. Matter of fact, Jeff had flown in from Phoenix. He was trying to get in my house. He couldn't make it because Highway 59 was shut down. The water was over the road. A Mustang frequently. Yeah. Were you sure? It's pretty nice for you to shut down Highway 59. You know you got some major rain and snow, but you you you had a friend or somebody come through the bureau and sort of they call Jeff. You got half your money back on that hotel room. Yeah. And you followed that route. Yeah, guys, if you check the back roads and stimulus and back roads there with a single car on those roads. So I think that's a nice hotel for a couple of days. Yeah. Well, maybe it is one night. Yeah, but after all, a very dark good night. I wish you would stay in that hotel. That was the main reason I was trying to get back on board and get back to the bullpen here. You've been collecting and I always tell people that man got me collecting Coca-Cola stuff and I Segway down to gas and oil and beer stuff, and I had a couple of pieces. I gave you a floating around, you know, patient. Did you collected yourself? What are you? What are you looking for now? And you see some? I got that same revolver got pocket. Yeah, I'm getting one of those. Are you always looking? Do you ever go out, look more or you just have a to of something? Yeah, you got coffee and 30 years of collecting it around and basically got a room. So I have to really like something to get it because I take something off the wall to put it up on my daughter's always scary pictures. How do you like this? No, no, I don't like that, but I'm basically tapped out. I don't have any place to put anything else, but I started originally collecting Lone Star beer items. Yeah, and then you gave me some pearl and some other stuff. But Falstaff, for me, I like right there. Yeah. And so I our a up buying different neon lights and my wife got a free slot machines over the corner and wait over the slot machine that her brother got them, you know, Beaumont and Houston or whatever. And yeah, he got tired of them. So Game Girls and they all worked till, I guess, the heat and humidity finally got to them. But once George, I where'd you get the them, the boot on the wall with a lot of star thing on the front of it that came from Uncle Jerry or something all his work for Willie Nelson. And after he passed away, I got one boot. I don't know who got got the business custom-made lonestar boots that he used to work at, but I also used borrowed from Willie Nelson way back in the day. And I'm going back, man. I was in seventh grade. Yeah, when Jerry passed. And so he was roadie. We got another, yeah, real nail. And I talked to someone was the boys. I told him, I said, Hey man, Jerry, you sort of will. And I knew Willie. But events over the years, what I did remember. But I smoked it for you that day. So yeah, I've always been curious if he would. He would remember how he got it. I think he's kind of passing by. Yeah, I got a picture here, some words of Willie and her and obituary. She pulled together and I got a bottle of whiskey on the back of Willie. Had a short time. I'll see you right back here, OK? Yeah, these weren't in a picture out there. I got a hanging right there. I got right. And that's another thing. You brought that up because Uncle Jerry used to work at Texas ever had Texas Hatters and Austin, Texas? And who was the Mad Hatter? Maybe, maybe. Yeah, if anybody out there in Austin, Texas has been by the Mad Hatter's taxpayers old man. Yeah, made that happen. And I'm sure it maybe it, maybe some of the same folks, but I think they've now moved a lot more as far as I know. Yeah, I would have to say the other day when I went to Austin picked Tanya, I saw that Texas had her build a million homes and it brought Rob back cause I knew Jerry used to work there. Yeah, so they would do that. Yeah, I guess it's all part of if y'all asked Lockhart and Lockhart Lou and we used to always go to either city market barbecue or black smoke, you remember? Yeah, and I used to always when you go get some brisket, I put it on a wax paper cup and this wax that your table do best barbecue stuff that you every day. We're losing barbecue blacks a few years ago when we thought what was the barbecue, but some of them just losing barbecue? Yeah, but it was good one. Yeah, yeah. Have you look like a pretty new building? And all of that has been going around a while, but it was good. So, Jeff, how long, you know, how long are you going to stay on that voyage? Go play by air and see what's going on? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Going on with the situation here, you know and what your work schedule? Kevin, we've got to go back to work, as I've said, you know, and go back to her brother's go and I'll probably come back for one more day, visit him and then we'll get him back to Los Angeles. And I go back to work on a broken skull challenge is going pretty good. Well, what be back to work more? Yeah, it's amazing. We can only work two days Wednesday and Thursday, so next week I can work just about every single day. This week I've worked with four hour shifts. A couple of work. Yeah, yeah. Well, I volunteer for a lot of overtime and I felt back full time and next week I'll cover for something on vacation. So now what is your next excursion to Vegas? Because every time you go to Vegas, you say, Man Vegas, you guys can join us. I just I. I'm just not much of a Vegas. Yeah, no. I've got something going on one job next trip. Well, I've booked a trip to Cancun coming up, so I want to go there. Oh, my 50th birthday and I've never been there before, so we'll show the beach right after this remodel job. I may be canceling that trip, going after my younger brother discount. Yeah, I got to pay half draft card, a giraffe. I got it even harder to dress, had to go, got so got a deal. Worked out here. I will get to the five inch screen. So we haven't talked about either. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, I'm not paying him much. I bite everybody else. A whole lot of materials. Yeah, yeah. We got a poor little nephew, Neal out there. I come here to get this podcast said, You stay to work. Yeah, to talk about the I wrapped this thing up. So how do I know it can't go? Well, just a quick trip because it's just three nights. So yeah, yeah, just like Vegas or three nights to know for me. Yeah, and I haven't been a game good. Yeah, man identifies a man's knee and and a lot of players outside of somewhere. And one was the Redneck Island man. I love it over here. It's absolutely beautiful. Chris, OK? Last year with with her niece, she thought it was spectacular. You know, have a good time, you know, do one in the world. Oh yeah, yeah, all inclusive. But the main reason I booked it. I love Vegas and I go there. I went every single time, but my wife loses so much money. I figure if I go to Cancun, I save some money. There's no gambling in the first or whatever she gets able to lose. You know why you got to do just you got to get a lucky Rabbit's Foot or what's a thriller clover? You've got to give her yourself for some good luck. You can turn a losing streak around. We actually had one and I don't know, 15 years. But when she did win, we were flat broke. We took a hundred eighty five dollars each. That's all we had to our names. She went up a $10 machine and walked out with over $4000. So, you know, to me, that was a lot of money back in the day with sleep lady. Take a couple of weeks of like a call and seek work couple of times and the everybody is a changed man. Yes, that's what it used to be, because all the old time inflation was going now. But I'm not staying at the Venetian next time. I never stay there and I know that you enjoyed your time there. So that's where we're planning on going to that. First, they got those Venetian blinds on. Yeah, it gets hot out there and that's a gimmick I'll do. But I yeah, you dig a Venetian allostatic is a shot connector, right? That building. So that's why I stay. There is several hours drive, a pickup truck to the shops, you know, and then I pick up trucks at the ranch and I was gonna drive a Ford Bronco and Kristen said, You gonna drive it for Bronco to Vegas? So I'm out there. That's said because she was going to break down ninety five Ford Bronco at forty five thousand miles on them. They like brand new. Yeah, she goes, I feel better if you drove my car well, she got a BMW X5, which is a nice ride, which is why I got a Ford. I want to break it down. You know, I drove. So she got a quality automobile. I show up in a BMW X5 because I've been going for years for the shot show and I'm sure I go the nation over the Dorset man. Why don't you show up? And that's what you're supposed to be in a pickup truck? I don't know how to get most of my truck is at the ranch. I was going to drive a Ford Bronco, but my wife would let. That's why I guess I had to make up a story while driving a BMW X5. We've got a booth there. Hey, I've got a couple of cuss words here and a family friendly show you. I hate to do that, but sometimes it is what it is, and I can't hold you up as some good data for you for that worse. We didn't say anything like I got to go to the George Carlin on camera. I cannot say on TV and this is a podcast, but I figured I'm old enough to it. When I do the opening of the show, I'll let you know that there's a couple of Four-Letter words in here. I don't think it was too damn offensive. If it was, then, I humbly apologize. And right now, I'm about to go about barbecue. Oh, you all did one thing I got to talk about Foreclosures podcast now. I was riding through town. I mean, Edmund, a long time. There's a Donut Palace, there's a Donut Shack and there's another doughnut shop. Three donut shops. The population charge is five thousand four hundred and ninety nine people, and there's three donut shops turning the corner Typekit out here. So we've got some Twinkie breaks in your trash, man. Hey. Three donut shops in a town of 5000 people. Yeah. What's up with that thing about that is the people that were working for the original donut shop. They leased a building from the other owners. Well, then they had a falling out. So just have to build their own on this side of town so that other people can build one right next door. So what are you eventually going to go out of business? So you're just bad blood between the donut people. So that's donut or down to Texas. Plus, there's a lot of cops in this town, and my brother reminded me that movie makers are aren't allowed to love of garbage truck. I've heard nowhere about cowboys. What are you going to do now? Just make sure it was garbage truck. Shut up. Go get. Somebody else is stealing all his wood. Or it might have been saved for my cousin Vinny when him and Marisa Tomei go down to the restaurant and says breakfast, lunch, dinner. And it was like I had bacon and eggs just somewhat greasy. I mean, it's not that Joe Pesci action. You are aware of the Al Gore cholesterol. Yeah, I mean, so surely first of all, don't call me Shirley. Oh, I'll surely surely these people that Edna must know that that's just a bunch of fried a*s down and hot oil. And I love the place. Not if I roll up on either one of these doughnut shops and I got any M.I.T. or MO, I will pick one of them. I might go back with a dozen glazed on like arbor tonight, but the numbers ain't the most user friendly food that you can put inside your body. As good as they taste, then good for you. Yeah, yeah. You know you don't strike me as a doughnut person, are you? Yeah. Well, every day I know how you want it. Powdered sugar doing this, like what is it about some of that man? Little milk back in the day when everybody got one in powdered donuts may not provide all that snore, but black. OK, Joe, how many do you frequent the donut shops? Maybe about twice a year. So if they're counting on me for money to go out of business, but I tell man, there's a there's a doughnut hole here. Yeah, there is here in Edmond, Texas, and I like it. It's like a Crips and Bloods over here, with more resentment still around to get to the bottom of it. I at the local news got it and I got in the Houston area, but Kevin got a Wal-Mart here. I got three donut shops. What else? Oh man, Gary's Drive-In closed down. Oh yeah. Although I used to want to else in town. Yeah. But I mean, we used to be that one right there on main main drag Gary's drive and those people over in China and Russia and Bulgaria and all of other places. It wasn't a show any United States there used to be a little drive in a store called Gary's Drive-In, which was an institution where go get our gas there and we go get our if you need someone in the supermarket and did not go to these families or the B, you went to Gary's drive around earlier in the day and found out it was closed down and in that field, right across from Gary's Drive-In, that's when I fell off my horse. The saddle fell upside down and was chased him around about the five acre patch. There I was cutting that son of a gun and I caught him and I never had a hard time getting that some match up like that. But when year drive and I found out was close, a Dan Merrick started crying. What the hell happened? He retired. He retired. Well, he retired. Didn't want to sell it. Nobody again. No, no, no, no. People bought it. They sold it. They ran it down. And I heard it. You already got to. Well, that's right. Mom told me she went John Boehner. And it wasn't a pleasant experience. And so I guess that wouldn't have happened. Yeah, I'm not looking for a lawsuit on podcast, which I should have right there. But man, we used to have a little bit of, I guess, outside of the store, but it's got a big part of childhood club closed up. It was something way back in the day and he remembers you, Kevin, and he maybe Jeff. But I remember back in when I was driving either a seventy one Firebird form, seventy three Camaro or 70 GMC pickup truck. You pull up and you could go to the cashier as or five dollars gas and five dollars a gas. Damn, give me about six eight gallons. Oh yeah, well, you gave me half take. Oh yeah, yeah. Even when I was driving, I mean, that was a legitimate deal was to go to the store, put $5 a gallon in these days. Oh, you might get a gallon and a frog here or five bucks, so you can't do that no more. I mean, it ain't no good to put 10 miles down the road if you don't know about for Bronco. When we were young, I said, Jeff, you wanna go for ride sharing, you know? Let's go for Red Mark here, he's got some gas wagging about power, tripping a Ziploc bag. I made Jeff take it in while I thought it was a criminal god that know that we're going to release pocket. Well, it's going to be a lot of about, Hey. Oh, I'm too high. We got no credit. We got pennies as an honor system, I'm telling you right now. Yeah, yeah. We want to count them and you want to count it good. I'm not asking you to take a cigarette. I give you my number here. You give me a call. You all watch 26. There were 480 pennies in that bag. All right, Steve Austin, I've got a sign out here. Well, I mean, it's the way your brother's body guards right here.
