I look, I think the sun is recruiting black people, man.
It's trying to transition folks.
It's trying to make more blacks and browns and semi-browns
and off-browns.
This, do put a white in the sun for 30 hours. And now making walk down

That's what I'm saying, man. That's the sun be doing like that. And that's just what is this the time of year it is when the sun this is its balls. The sun is him right now. Um.
Yeah, we got a lot in this episode, man. We got a lot we're going to into we're talking Well that you know that reminds me when I was in school, you know, and you had to build a solar system, baby remember that
It was maybe a third grade or fourth grade
Yeah, to build that solar system, which like a mo yeah to make a mobile with the different planets hanging on it and that
And the rich kids they had they came their mom if you had a make a mobile with the different planets hanging on it and that.
And the rich kids, they had, they came, their mom, if you had a dad, first of all,
then if your dad had a job and your mom didn't have to work, then your mom had a
car with a hatchback, right?
And the rich kids, you know, Zachary or Abigail, they would come to the school and they had, um,
they're, they were, their mom would open the hatchback and get their, uh, their solar system
out. And you'd see all the planets on it made out of a little styrofoam ball when everything and it's cute to say their name on the side.
Zangarai.
Hello, Gail.
Now if you was over by us, bro, if you had to ride the poor bus, bro, you had to get
yo first you had to build your shit, bro.
Mom went in hell, you ain't had no hot glue gun.
You was doing your thing.
You had to do it yourself, right?
That's how you had to do it yourself, right? That's how you had to do it
I remember my solar system that bitch had a orange in the middle, but I put it in the microwave for like 30 seconds
To warm it up to give it that that sun mentality, you know
So I heated that bit put it in the middle and
Then I hung whatever I could for the other thing, bro. I had me a cherry tomato on there. I had me
a part of a mitten. What else I had a closings pen. I had a
butter scotch. And what else was on mine? Maybe a marshmallow
and a thing of tweezers that I had found in mom's room. And that
was my solar system, baby.
And I, and you had to get on the bus, bro, that was the problem.
And on the bus, people, some people they didn't have their, their, their,
their is made the other children.
So they had some lurkers on there.
Like Daniel, you know, Daniel, he, he's still four Jupiter's on the bus, bro.
He rolled off the bus with a half a pocket full of Jupiter's,
though. And that was he is a presentation.
In Gerald, damn, I remember, oh, man, we had this one fella in our
class, Gerald, bro, and he, you know, he didn't have a lot of brain in
him. He wasn't real. He wasn't that real, that and he, you know, he didn't have a lot of brain in him. He wasn't real.
He wasn't that real, that brain dog, you know?
And he had his solar system had, I remember it had earth and Alaska.
That was the two planets, bro.
That bitch had earth and Alaska.
And one out of our remember, we was at a camp out or something and I remember looking up at the
sky with him and he we were looking at the moon and he said, Hey man, you think you think
whatever land on Alaska.
And I just padded him on the back a little extra, You know, because sometimes some folk need that extra patent,
bro. And that's what he needed a couple extra pads on the back, baby, but that's what God's
doing. Man, what I'm saying is we all have different universes. You know, we all got different,
we all got different universes. Welcome to the episode.
Thank you guys for being a part of my life
and let me be a part of your life.
What's going on?
We got a unique episode.
We're gonna get to some calls.
We have the Gator boys,
some of them boys, they nabbed that gator over there in Mississippi.
They nabbed one.
I mean, just one of them big daddies, this thing big boy, this thing big, this thing won't
fit in a condom, you know what I'm saying?
This thing's big.
So they nabbed it and we're gonna talk to one of those guys
We had some finance we had a fruit. We was a victim of a fraud. We're gonna talk about that
And what else can we talk about got a lot of great calls
What else I've been I've been feeling a lot man. I've been I've been having a tough I've been feeling like everything's gotta be perfect man
man, I've been having a tough, I've been feeling like everything's gotta be perfect man.
I've been feeling like, you know, it's like I come to, even just to come into podcasts, like I've gotta be every, you know, everything, it's like, or just every day, every life's like,
man, everything is just like, it just, it just, and sometimes it builds up. It's like, and I don't even notice it's going on.
But yeah, but that's not the truth. And I just, sometimes I'll let it build up
and be the truth, or it's just, I can't explain it,
but it starts happening in the background.
Like everything's gotta be perfect, you know?
So yeah, I just wanna call that out on myself
and just think, you know, like, I can't make
things, I can't be perfect, I can't make everything perfect.
Yeah. So it just, I can't, you know, And nobody's asking me to really.
It's like, it's this,
it's like this self-fulfilling,
like a self-unfulfilling prophecy.
You know, it's like,
it's a ridiculous pressure.
It goes back to when I,
it probably associates when I was young, you know.
And I felt like if I wasn't perfect,
then I wouldn't be cared about, you know?
Or the only way I had a change, it was like,
you know, I wasn't getting when I was,
I don't know, I'm not trying to get in all that kind of stuff,
but it was like, I guess,
it's like if I, what, if,
it was like, I guess I felt like, if I'm not,
if I don't, the only way I have a chance
to get what I need in the world is if I'm perfect.
Because I wasn't getting what I needed,
so it was like, man, if I, I guess the only way I can
that I even have a chance, I must have to be perfect
to get the care I need, you know?
Or maybe if I'm perfect,
maybe if I'm perfect, maybe if I'm perfect,
then I will have to be cared about.
Because somebody couldn't not care about something
that's perfect, you know?
I don't know, I'm not saying that I'm perfect or anything,
I'm just saying that's an old thing that would be in my head, man.
And it's not even a thought that I had or created.
It was like a survival thing that happened when I was young.
And I could see how a kid could think that, you know, a kid could think that.
So, but yeah, sometimes that flares up and I'm like, man, if I'm not perfect, then people
are, people are not going to like me.
You know, if I'm honest, if I'm real honest about it.
And I know that isn't true.
I know that's not true of like my friend.
Like as an adult, now I know that's not the truth,
but it still doesn't stop those old feelings from,
they kind of take over the,
they kind of hijack the mainframe sometimes.
And I get stuck in that space
and I don't even realize it, you know.
So yeah, I just want to share, I just want to call that out to myself and just say, yeah,
man, you don't have to be, you are, oh, you're fine.
You're okay, brother, you know, and, yeah, I just want to call that out to myself because that's important to me.
Uh, to notice, and I'm grateful now that I can even notice when that happens sometimes so that
I'm not just sitting there and just being a victim of it.
We have some really nice calls, some really nice stuff, and um,
grateful to be here with you guys
We're got this call that came in right here. Let's just let's let's hear this daddy real fast
Let's see what this can has to say here because I know
What's up, you little love nothing. I just heard your podcast and what's about time
up your little love muffin. I just heard your podcast and with the about time coming to North Cacalaque, I live 20 minutes away from Winston
Salem and I'm so fucking excited bro. Gang gang homie. Gang baby yeah and that's
that'll just lead us right into the tour dates. That's what I want to tell you. We
have some new ones and man some really exciting stuff
Yeah, we just got back from Canada. I'm gonna talk about that in a second But I want to let you know that we have a live now Norfolk
VA
Rowan oak
VA and that's where I think I
Think that's where the pilgrims started
Huntington West Virginia up there up there about a big sandy arena I think this word of pilgrims started.
Huntington, West Virginia up there, up there
about a big sandy arena.
They now call it the mountain health
and they used to call it the big sandy.
Evanes, Valindiana at the Ford Center,
Pikeville, Pikeville, Kentucky
at a, on November 16th and Winston Salem.
November 17th and then New Orleans, Louisiana, baby.
November 24th, the day after Thanksgiving at the UNO Lake Front Arena.
And that's the, for me, that's real magical. That's the first place I ever
That's real magical. That's the first place I ever seen like a big concert. And to get to go there and perform, yeah, it means a lot, you know.
And yeah, it means a lot, man. I know, and a lot of people there. I know we're excited about it. And on behalf of them, I'm excited as well.
It means a lot just to be from that community,
in that area, and to be able to go back there.
And I'm just so grateful for that support there and everywhere.
And we had some nice calls that came in.
I just got back from Toronto.
And Naya Gara Falls, maybe we did it
over there.
And if you haven't been a, been to the falls, you need to go see it.
And I was on the Canada side and you look, I got to my hotel room and I looked out and
you see, I mean, it just is unreal.
It's just, there's so much energy there.
I mean, you see that river and you see that mullet on it, baby.
You say, damn, that's a waterfall, baby.
That just is, God, you just, yeah, just,
I mean, it's just stunning, you know,
it's just a stunning, it's a stunning place over there. So if you get a chance to check that out, it's worth it.
And then we spent time over there in Toronto and, you know, Toronto, I'll say this man, there's a, there's, it's really friendly folks. It's very friendly and it's very diverse too.
It is, I mean, God, they got things you never seen.
You know, they got things you never seen over there.
They're like, damn, you're a person.
It's so it is mixed, baby.
Aw. And, and one thing that's different there is rate, the racial, there's not a rate, you
don't feel a racial tension, especially between black and white folks there. Now, that, of course,
you know, I'm white or semi white, you know, and so that's, that, you know, I'm white or semi-white.
And so that's, I can just have my perception,
and I grew up in a black and white area.
And so there's more history, racial history in the US,
but in Canada, it's really different.
The energy, when black and white people that's not, it's really different. It's the energy when you,
when black and white people are around each other,
it's really,
it feels real clean.
It feels like there's not,
there's not a bunch of faces from the history,
you know, there's not a bunch of like,
there's not a bunch of faces from the history. There's not a bunch of history. There's not a bunch of history.
It just feels like there's this history of being human.
To me, it's nice to see and it's nice to feel that.
So if you want to, it just was real interesting experience, man, because it's different
in America. And not everywhere in America, exactly and not always in America, but I'm just
saying kind of on average. And it was, I thought that was pretty spectacular, man. You know,
and, and another thing about Canada, they're not, there's not as many people trying to, like, it doesn't
feel like it's really safe.
I mean, it's safe.
You don't feel scared.
You feel you just, even if somebody's mean, if you see a mean person, the worst thing
they're going to just going to run up and say, hey, I'm mean.
And then they'll run off, you know?
And like, Hey, I mean, sorry, sorry about being mean,
but I still am.
And then they'll run off.
That's like the word, it's like, I don't know.
I think part of it is they don't,
there's not people trying to get ahead.
There's not as much like in America,
I feel like we're so conditioned that you have to get ahead, there's not as much, like in America, I feel like we're so conditioned that you have to get ahead, you have to keep climbing, keep climbing.
And in Canada, there's more relic, there's not as much of that energy.
And so when you're not, when you're not trying to get ahead as much, you're more, you have
more energy just to be,
you're more happy where you are.
You're more happy where you are. If you're not trying to climb,
then you have your energies there to stand in the group
and share with your community.
And so I think that's what I feel a lot,
is a lot more people are content.
And that's nice to be around, it's nice to witness.
It's nice to know that that's possible in a place.
Cause sometimes, sometimes it doesn't feel
as possible here in America anymore to me.
And I'm not trying to be a downer,
I just, sometimes, you know, but yeah, it's just,
it's nice when you're just talking to somebody
and that's, they're just trying to be helpful,
trying to be friendly, not trying to get ahead
or do anything, just trying to be associated
with their fellow man or woman.
There was something, a of warm about that. Um, what
else happened? I'm trying to think. So that's all the traveling I've done. You

If you are born in a poverty or you live in it,
and you certain ways aren't your way out.
What are some ways that other people have gotten out of it? You know, because I
think it's important to know. You know, I talked a lot about pressure washing in
my neighborhood when I was young. A lot of people would do pressure washing and
that was something that was pretty popular to get people out of there. And so I
want to go to a a couple calls right here.
You guys hit the hotline,
985-664-9503,
and responded with some calls.
And so we wanna get to those right now,
and see what people had to say.
So, here we go.

you know help

Let's hear a little more.
Not ready for a kid.
I know I have a long way to go, and so I am ready.
But I saw a lot of men at home who did better for you.
Your self, you can go around you.
You carry this left. Well, man, I think you can handle it, brother. yourself doesn't handle you. Because that.
Well, man, I think you can handle it, brother.
You know, you can handle the, you know, you handle, you handle not knowing what to do with
a job and you started.
You made a choice for yourself.
But don't overwhelm yourself either, man, it don't have to be perfect, bro.
You know, when you're going to, man, you're going to do a great job.
That kid is you, part of that kid is you.
That's what I think is probably real fascinating
about being a parent.
And you obviously care about yourself, man.
You working doing things for yourself.
So, oh, you can, man, you're gonna do so good, man.
Bro, I'm happy for you, bro.
We actually had one more that came in.
Let me hear. Hey, what's up, man? This is Dylan. I'm from New Hampshire, but I live in for you. We actually had one more that came in. Let me hear.
Hey, what's up, man?
This is Dylan.
I'm from New Hampshire, but I live in Denver now.
I'm calling about how to get out of poverty.
One of the best ways to do it is door door sales.
You live in smart home, sell security, sell a fast control.
You know, you can go fly out, the pay for your stuff.
It's all commissions.
You gotta make sure you sell it.
If you're tough enough, then you can make six figures
your first year.
Wow, I didn't know that, buddy.
Door to door sales.
Yeah, that's great.
Cause it do some people these days, honestly.
I believe if you go to someone's door, okay?
And you knock on their door.
And when they open it, if you knock on their door When they open it if you say look
Really honestly if you give me $10, bro, I leave right now. I
Bet six out of probably 15 people will give you
10 at least eight dollars at least eight dollars, brother, get out to leave, bruh.
Cause people are fearful now. So I think that's a way you could get, you know, start stacking a little.
Hey, knock, knock, knock. Yes, you know, my name is Terry. I'm real with you. I don't know what
I'm doing. But here I am. And for $10 I will leave immediately.
Bam bitch, I'm Vinmo and Terry, bro.
Bioteri, I'm Vinmo and Terry gotta go.
Sayonara, Terry,
Terry, goodbye Terry, goodbye Terry.
Oh, so cres so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, at any age. So that's my advice for people who don't know what to do.
Reach out to those companies,
sugar termination,
they'll give you an opportunity to make some money.
And the best thing, you can practice this at,
you can practice door to door sales at Home Depot.
If you go back in there,
by the kitchen, by the appliances and everything,
they got a couple doors set up right there, couple,
you know, and you just stay out, close them,
stay in there, fucking knock.
When somebody answers, try to sell them something, practice.
You could practice right there, they got like,
you know, yeah, usually a couple different doors,
different color doors and stuff like that. And you could see, yeah, knock, knock, somebody opened it, they're like, you know, yeah, usually a couple different doors, different color doors and stuff like that.
And you can see, yeah, not, not somebody opened it, like, uh, hello.
And you're like, hell, yeah, you want to buy this wrench set, you know, you want to buy
this wrench set.
You could get anything out the store and sell it to them, you know, you want to buy this yarn, plant, um, fishing gear, all types of stuff.
You ever done an indoor indoor sales rally? I have. Really? Wonderful, man. What did you got sale?
Um, anything from popcorn to, uh, seas candy. Oh, wow, and how'd you get involved with that you so you were doing more
Is that called
That's not really on trays. That's more side items, huh? Right, okay?
And what wait, how do you get involved with that?
Popcorn was for scouts and Seas Candy was for Band.
Ooh, and what was easier to pedal?
Let me, what do you think was easier to pedal out there?
What do you mean like a bite?
No, no, what was easier to sail to folks?
Oh, Seas Candy.
Oh, yeah, Why, you think?
I think everyone just like candy more than popcorn. Yeah.
Yeah, that's interesting.
Yeah, I think if you put candy on the word
on the back of anything, it's, you know,
people are interested in it.
You know, you throw candy on the back of something.
People are more excited, you know
Like if you say hey you want to buy this bullshit people like not I'll be like hey you want to
You want to get up on some of this bullshit candy?
Who'd be like let me look at it?
You feel me rally I do that's business., that's big business. Let's hear more, brother.
Secondly, I have a question for you.
I keep getting these relationships that don't work out
and part of it's my fault, and we're gonna do that
in therapy, but process and the emotions, man.
I just keep crying, there's realization last week
that anytime I really, really want to drink and I'm alone crying I just realized that last week that anytime I really
really want to drink and I'm alone typically just need to cry.
So I've been crying constantly man and I'm like God I'm losing my mind.
So the question I have is do I just keep crying it out or should I just walk up and you
know stiff up and look.
I don't know I'm trying to love myself and get to a place
where I can be good to someone else. Anyway, I love you, man. And I look forward to seeing you when
you come down there. Thanks. Gang, brother. Thanks for that, man. Thanks for the call and just for
sharing what's going on with you, man. I'm trying to drop in here to this. I think, yeah, tears, you gotta let tears out.
You know, tears, I believe that tears belong to God.
You know, I really believe that.
Now a baby's tears don't, a baby, a baby, a lot of time, baby just being an asshole.
And that's how a baby going, baby boy.
But as an adult, man, tears really, I believe,
belong to God.
And a lot of times, yeah, you know,
there are emotions, there are tasks to emotions.
And those emotions, they take it,
it's hard to get them out of yourself.
You know, they go through a gauntlet of like,
of on, you know, it takes, you know, you'll be surprised when an emotion finally gets to the surface
of yourself. So those tears, I feel like there are a lot of times, they're the sweat, man,
they're the sweat of the gauntlet that your emotions had to run through.
Just climbing through your soul.
That's the sweat of those feelings, man.
That's all that is.
Those feelings, they get a hearted, it's hard for them sometimes to get out and get out
of your body and get out of your brain and get out of your heart
Some of them have to go through your through the past through time and through your heart through your brain through your
And through the party that don't even want them to come out then they got to trick that bit. They got to trick the baltzer a lot of times
And finally they get to the surface hell yeah, a lot of times. And finally, they get to the surface,
hell yeah, they're going to be sweaty, bro, when those emotions finally get there. So
that's sometimes what I see tears as, you know, a lot of times there's that we see somebody
tear up, they stop it. I sometimes I understand maybe if you're in a public place and you're
feeling uncomfortable or whatever, but
man if you have a chance to let those tears come out
I think it's important
Because the god of god is trying he wants a mount. I believe that
um
Yes, sometimes he's trying to wash away some old pain or and I sometimes you might be excited.
You get so hopeful, you know, you'll tear up, man.
And that's that could be tears.
That's trying to water some hopes that you might have, you know, you may have such great
hope.
God might be like, Hey, you need a couple ounces of water for an image Yeah, she's like, got you dog.
Now, sometimes God might be, you know, you God might think you thirsty. And he may see me like, Hey, this is all I got, bro.
And he, you know, they're salt in it, but you can have a little, you know,
and that's weird, bro.
If you just crying just to drink them, that's always we, we had, you know,
we had some dudes in our town, bro. They wasn't doing that, but they was being nasty, you know, we had some dudes in our town, bro.
They wasn't doing that, but they was being nasty, boy.
They was being nasty, dude.
That's one thing, God.
When people are being nasty, I don't know.
Mm, I don't know how to handle it sometimes.
People, because God God people can be nasty.
And they are being nasty sometimes.
I remember seeking them to do it.
God, they was being nasty.
How do you feel about that, Raleigh Mow, when you've ever seen people being nasty or anything?
Um, you know, I just don't think about it.
What do you do to just drive off?
Yeah.
Mm.
Mm, mm, mm, mm.
What's going on?
What's new with you, Raleigh?
I feel like, you know, I know we haven't seen each other in a while and I see you got that facial hair going,
maybe you got that catfish rockin', huh, daddy?
I do.
How do you feel about that, what, what's spurn that?
I just wanted to try something new.
Mm.
And do you feel different with it?
Does it feel, how does that feel, you know,
cause I rock it, you know?
Yeah, no, it feels great. It feels definitely very different.
Like how? Like, do you feel, give me five words, it makes you feel...
You know, give me some words.
I feel older.
Okay, older.
Grown. Grown, okay.
So black and older.
I don't know, I look better maybe.
That's hold on, that's a lot of what you get.
Don't just do, we just have to do a word, sorry.
But I have to have the rules for the little thing,
for the game.
You wanna think about them? Yeah, I'll think about them.

All right, we got a call that came in right here
From one of these gator babies right here and these these men have been dealing with prehistoria
and
prehistoria, let me tell you what it is. It's before
Before it was like trial basis when God was trying out animals.
This is way before a deer or a golden retriever.
This is back when God had like Brontosaurus.
You know, he was just, he was putting shit to go.
He even know.
Yeah, Brontosaurus had like a 90 yard neck
Like damn what he would eat, but it never made it to his stomach and they would die every time
It would die every time dude have a huge meal and then you couldn't get the food couldn't get there and he died
You know, he just and then they had traceratops imp things
You know, he just and then they had triceratops imp things 400 pound forehead, bro set like 70 pound body
So it imbitches second they was they was born. They took one step forward and just
And now every one of them died face down in the dirt
T Rex he couldn't do she all he could do is bite people
All he could do is bite people, man.
You know, like a little pervert at a fucking mall, bro.
You know, they couldn't, he had them little arms, he had them baby retures, he couldn't even fucking hug his buddy, think about that.
No wonder he's so angry, He can't even fucking hug.
And so that's some of the early animals God made.
That's prehistoria.
Now some of those animals are still lurking around.
Some of those animals still milling around in our world.
And I want to talk to a man who captured one of them down there in Mississippi over there
and they just captured 800 pound alligator.
Can you imagine that?
Can you imagine your wife thinks you're cheating on her?
And you show up and you've just,
your arms, you've got lacerations all over?
Yeah, let's get to the call.
Joey Clark, I believe is the man. Joey.
Hey, what's going on, Theo? How you doing, man?
What's up, boss? I see you got that old misshirt on for yourself.
Yes, indeed, man. I'm coming on a an LSU boys podcast. I got a, got a represent, right?
We'll call it a truth for a little while. Maybe how about that, man?
There you go for about three or four weeks as back on
Okay, deal man. I'm turning into into a UT fan too here in in Tennessee
Joey tell me about this gator baby you guys caught that gator huh? Yeah, man
This went with three of my buddies out there. We were in outside of Yazoo City and oh, yeah, that's where um
out there. We were in, we're outside of Yazoo City. And um, oh yeah, that's where, um, uh, Jerry Klaus was from Yazoo City, Mississippi. That, that's exactly right. That's exactly
right. Uh, went out there in Yazoo City and we've been to this spot, you know, over the
years. I think this is probably the fourth or fifth gator I've caught with these guys,
something like that. Um, so we've been to that spot several times and dollar gator buddies,
huh? That's right. That's right. I've been with these fellows a few times and they've been
several years without me as well. And so you get out there, you guys get out there
you're in a, what kind of vessel are you guys in? Not a submarine or anything, huh?
No, we're in a 14 foot John boat. Yeah, boy, I know we brought this thing in the book. Oh that's some time
soil, your waterwork right there buddy. That's right. That's right. That that that gator
was about about a foot hanging off of that boat while we were trying to get back in at night.
And so what are you hook him on? What when you are you aiming for this type of big gator?
Are you aiming? What are you trying to catch? Are you guys looking for flounder? What are
you guys trying to catch out there?
Yeah, when you're out there, you're, I mean, in this area, we've hooked up and caught, you
know, several, you know, 12 and a half foot gators out there.
And that's what we're looking for, you know, we don't, you know, they mississippi.
The cool thing about here is it's not like Louisiana, it's not commercial.
They only give out about 900 tags a year, so we got drawn in the lottery.
So you want to make it count, right?
You want to make your gator count. You don't want to come in there with a little
non-foot gator if you don't have to, but you know nothing against that. Just we've done that before,
right? So we it's probably embarrassing, I guess, if four men get out of a boat with a little
baby gator, that looks probably. Yeah, we've, uh, as casual looking, we saw this gator, uh,
just as we were putting in right before dark,
and we had no idea it was this big.
So we, we hopped in the boat,
went out there and, um,
you know, we must have passed 20 to 25,
30 gators on the way out there.
They all look great and it's just the swamp full of
alligators out there, but.
And how do you, can you tell like even because the eyes are
usually poking out of the water, can you tell how big a gator is even
just by its eyes poking out?
You can tell.
Even when you get, you know, you're far away from one,
you can tell if he's undersized and you
something you don't want to fool with.
But, you know, you're out there at night.
It's pitch black.
There's, they got a pump sunshine out there
to that part of the state.
And, you know, you're out there and that stuff.
And you got a Q-beam. And you're just trying to light those eyes up and
and go from there.
And does the beam shock the gator at all?
Does it kind of get like a like a does it have that a deer and headlights effect on a
gator or what is that like?
It's not too much in a shocking when he when he fills the vibrations in the water of
your boat and your trolling motor and all that
That's what's gonna make him kind of kind of duck and start trying to get away from you and you know
He held his breath it seemed like 30 to 45 minutes at a time a couple times and oh wow I had to keep all searching him and you know
We hooked up to him the first time and what are you looking at mom?
Are you hooking on a spinner bait? What do you got? I mean? What do you even put out there?
Yeah, so it's just a treble hook. What do you guys use and are you guys using chicken livers? Like what do you use it? on a spinner bait? What do you got? I mean, what do you even put out there? Yeah, so it's just a treble hook.
What are you guys using?
Are you guys using chicken livers?
Like what do you use it?
What's the bait?
No, there's no bait whatsoever.
Oh, there's no bait.
No bait whatsoever.
You're out there.
You've got to see this gator.
And then you've got to be talented enough
to be able to throw that treble hook
through that line where you want to do it.
Okay, so you're not, so there's no bait in there.
You're not trying to get them to get something like a fish or it is more you are just trying
to get the hook into his body.
That's right.
That's right.
You're trying to get the hook at his body and eventually we kept on trying to hit him
with one line at a time and we did that, but he kept breaking all. And what these gators do, we probably hooked up on even seven or eight times, I guess,
and he kept on shaking that treble hook out of him.
But what they're trying to do is go under logs and things like that and shake that hook
out of them.
And then they're free.
And so that's kind of what the gist is there.
And do they sing nasty?
Like did this gators seem like a nasty guy
Or what did he say like can you get any?
As semblance of what their personality is like did he seem like a nasty guy?
Yeah, man he was he wasn't me this gator. We've ever run across we've we've run across some meaner ones
But he was very territorial, you know, he did the you know the weird thing is we we've hooked up on some good size gators in the past and
You know, you hook them once or twice and now they kind of get the gist of what's going on?
You trying to kill them and they disappear you'll never see him again the best gator. He wouldn't do that
He was there in that area. You know, he's just we probably a hoarder if you see that show like my 700 pound live for something that because that
Those people don't not you know, they're usually locked in their house with magazine you know they
have like stacks of magazines and everything.
That's right.
That's right.
This thing is over there and yeah he's in his spot and he's not trying to get out of
it.
He's he's doing his thing and like I say he never left.
He never left the two hundred yard radius force and that's just crazy to me that they
didn't happen like that because we hooked into over the first time about
9.30 at night. We didn't have that thing in the boat until 3.30 in the morning. My God, and so you hook him you start getting him and now how close is the boat as
Are you just right next to him?
Yeah, you are so you know, I'd say when you hook up on him initially, you know, you're probably within
15 feet of the gator problem. So I wouldn't be there, buddy. I'd call it them over, buddy. I would not be right there. I'll be glad to send you a couple of little
videos we took on the boat so you can kind of see for yourself on this. If that be something
that would help kind of put it together for you, we'd love that. We'll play some of those
side by side while we're talking about it.
Okay.
So you get him.
You have how many hooks do you eventually get into the gator?
Finally at the end, we did get a second hook in and we had one.
The first hook we call it was not where you want to catch him.
It would be back at the tail.
And that's where my buddy Don, he blind cast out over him, hooked him in the tail.
We fought him for about 30 minutes. could get a second hook in him.
Damn.
So kind of my job with all this is when I'm in the boat, we've got a snare or whatever.
And my job is once he's come up for it, he's got a snare.
Yeah, so it's like a drum.
No, not a drum.
It's kind of like, I call it almost like a noose, right?
I mean, you've got a rope on the end of it
You slip it over his head and then when you do it
I just pull that rope as hard as I can basically try to sit down on the bottom of the boat until uh
So this some damn BDSM shit. It sounds like
Yes indeed. Yes indeed. Wow. It's so it's crazy
They wind up and get him at 14 feet
Three inches. So it's as of today
We've got still got 24 hours left and then said a Mississippi for gator hunting season
But as of today is the state record wow, and how much weight was it?
802.5 pounds damn boy, and that missed that missed the state record by 20 pounds
That just tells you how big they are down here. Oh, so it didn't even make the weight record,
but it made the length record.
That's right, that's exactly right.
That's incredible, man.
It is, it is.
So once you have both of those hooks,
how are you elevating it out of the water?
What's, like, how does your boat not cap size?
Yeah, so, you know, what he's doing,
when he's down there underwater,
he's, you know, he's fighting and he's down there
and he's been down there at this point,
you know, over that seven hour period,
he had been in that water, you know,
underwater the majority of that time,
but they gotta come up for air, right?
They gotta, at some point, they can't stay underwater
forever, they gotta come up.
So when they do, you gotta think about it,
is your, you know, these guys with the two lines are pulling closer and closer to the boat
As they continue to fight him and he continues to come up for air a little bit more frequently towards the end
Hmm, and that's you know when it gets close enough to the boat with them, you know
I'd say two or three feet if you can and that's when you want to put that that snare around him and and hooking from there
Kind of finish the deal off and do you choke him out to somebody get on him?
How do you finish him?
Man, I'm trying to like hell to choke him out.
I'm like, I'm just holding as tight as I can until somebody can shoot him.
Oh, you shoot him.
Yeah, yeah, you got a shoot.
Oh, yeah, I'm going to miss the damn.
That's right.
That's a damn robbery, bro.
Yes, it is.
It's a, it's a mugging for sure.
It is.
God, I thought you were just towing him in. He brought it. Yes, it is. It's a it's a mugging for sure. It is.
God, I thought you were just towing him in.
Now, no, no, no, you got to put that back for him.
So the last thing you want to do is towing in
and then you lose him or something.
Yeah.
Because once you've even a break off a rope or something,
he's at the bottom of the river.
You're not getting it back, you know.
And when he went after he's right when he dies,
do y'all hug or what do people like?
Is there a celebration?
What is that moment like?
Man, it's just a sense of relief.
You've been out there with him all night long.
And the last thing you want to do is let him off the hook.
Look, we had been out there for so long.
We were all just getting tired and worn out.
We did a whole day, all four of us just, you know, doing our thing and nobody
wanted to give up.
And then we all thought about it.
But the end of the night, you know, my buddy Tanner, the entire time, he was he was like, we're not letting this guy go and we're just not going to do it. So
he was, he was hell been on getting this gator in the boat. Oh, every Tanner, I know, will get hell
bent. They get hell bent on all kind of shit. You put a couple beers and I'm re guys having a
couple beers. No, there's no drinking out there. There's no drinking. It's a little bit too unsafe
for that. We, we tried to be as legal as we could with getting this gator in and out. And thank God we did because now, you know, I mean, immediately
when we pulled it out, obviously the state wildlife department gets called, they
got to come measure in a confirm and but now no party in the party was after, I
guess, though, that over the last 10 days, just trying to let all this stuff
sink in, man, it's grown and blown up beyond our wildest expectation, man.
Man, that's exciting, brother.
Yeah.
In the old name,
or anything, is there anything like that deal?
Barry, and what's the, what happens?
Is there any things that happen like that?
And now, so we don't, we have name.
Now, if we would have, I wish you kind of brought something up.
Maybe we should do that.
But the, with the meat, we donated the meat to an organization
there in Yazoo City. They kind of just did, you know, did me that meat out to, you know,
warfin's money.
Warfin's money.
Things like that. Yeah. And it came out for like 380 pounds of meat. So it was a ton of meat
on that.
And they were never, they had an orphanage by us and they would always whenever people would cut
That a lot of donated meat would go over there and sometimes I had a buddy that was over there
And we go there and eat and they'd always be eating gator up in that bitch
It's kind of wild. I think oh, it's crazy. You go in there and you see 20 freaking orphans, bro
No, I don't young and they're young and down on some gator
It's just like that man and get us some gator sausage and then let them have a weekend, you know?
Oh yeah, if they don't have parents, dude, get them some decent meat.
That's what I think.
Everybody deserves something.
Exactly.
But yeah, man, that was kind of the gator itself.
I guess with this hot, we're going to get some leather boots made.
We're going to be looking sharp.
Come Christmas time, I guess.
We'll see what's up.
That's the plan.
Well, praise brother.
Thank you so much for just jumping on and filling us in on some information.
It's really fascinating and congratulations on the state record, man.
That's amazing.
Well, I appreciate it, man.
It's very nice talking to you.
And like I say, it's been a while ride.
And I'll send you those videos so you can check that out and kind of see,
put this in a perspective
what it's like out there in the pitch black at night.
Woo, yeah brother, please do.
Also just great to talk to somebody
from over there near Yazoo City, Mississippi,
the Home of Jerry Clour, my favorite comedian.
So thank you so much, Joey Clark.
We appreciate you brother.
Thank you man, nice talking to you.
All right, cheers buddy. Have a good one.
Take care.
What else?
Riley, I'm sure people are wanting to know
we usually get an update on how your dating life is going.
What's going on there, Bob?
Ah, still, still nothing.
Really?
Really?
Okay, that's okay.
Well, damn, dude, and how's everything going?
I know we talked in the past about the
master, batori efforts and stuff.
You've been out there glazing that glizzy homie
what's been going on?
You've been freaking burping that little
pants yurt or what?
You've been frizzing that little syrup dog or what?
Still nothing.
Oh, man, you tell... Rolly Riley Mal, people are not believing this,
man, that you've never, you still have never ejaculated. Is that true? Yeah, it's true.
God bless. Brother, we got to get you on a damn pay per view. I mean, you could open up for
Logan, Paul and Dylan, and as you could be in an early preliminary, I mean, there's never in your life.
You telling me the truth, Raleigh?
I am.
Never.
Not even in your sleep.
God has never come and touched you in your sleep.
Never.
What?
Oh my God, we could raffle you off to a bunch of older gay men in Hollywood.
They, but they pay half a million dollars for you in Hollywood to be getting clean
sauce out of a damn Vietnamese fella from the mountains.
Yeah.
Um, I'm, I'm actually not Vietnamese.
Well, but yeah, but you know what I'm, or what are you?
I'm a Japanese Korean Hawaiian and Norwegian.
Well, you know, that's pretty much Vietnames, dude, but that doesn't matter, man.
What matters is we're both human beings, baby boy.
And I can't believe boy.
You got that clean syrup in your son.
You got that
6,000 octane boy. Gosh. That's God's gleeke homie. That thing coming right off the clouds
of the Lord. My God. Dude, if you if you've got you a little if you got you a half ounce
of that and you painted the toes of some of these gay men and perverted
men out there in Hollywood.
My God.
Oh, but I'm sorry.
That's not what we need to be doing.
That's not what we need to be involved in, man.
I'm sorry for saying that stuff.
Oh, you're good.
You know, but do you worry about not being able to get an erection when you do get a woman,
Riley?
You're saving yourself from marriage.
That's correct.
Correct.
But how do you know that your body's gonna work then?
All right, I just believe it will.
One of the time comes.
Hey boy.
Wow, bro.
That is a risk though, Riley. Look, I, but you know what, man, I've a risk though, Riley.
Look, I, but you know what, man,
I've seen miracles happen, man.
I really have.
I've seen miracles happen, bro.
And if you look, I would stand by y'all's bed and pray for y'all.
Pray, you know, by y'all's marital bed or whatever,
be in the next room and, you know, put my hands on the wall
and pray or whatever you need it, buddy.
You know?
Yeah, yeah.
All right.
You sound exhausted, am I tired?
A little.
Yeah, it's just been a lot, sorry.
I keep forgetting, I don't forget that that's,
that you just came from a funeral man.
I'm sorry, and I'm sorry for maybe for asking about some of this, but,
you know, I just want to know what's going on.
And, and maybe we can help you find somebody, Raleigh.
Like, you know, we'll put, we'll put some clips over there on the,
this past week in social media and see if, and, you know, maybe you'll,
you'll meet a girl, you need it.
You want a God fearing woman, correct?
I do.
Amen, brother.
Does it matter what ethnicity they are, religious ethnicity?
Ethnicity, no.
Okay.
Oh, I mean like Protestant or whatever.
Um, just non-denominational.
Okay, non-domo.
Yeah, I'm okay. You getting risky boy. You hitting that raffle boy
Non-denominational baby. That's the devil's raffle, baby
All right
What else do we have here
Is Arthur on the line, Riley?
Is Arthur on the line, Riley?
Yeah. Okay, great.
I want to deal with a little bit of laundry now,
just some kind of behind the scenes stuff, really.
You know, you guys, we had an issue in the past
where Kai, the hitchhiker, and he's a famed,
he, you know, he smashed somebody at an intersection
with a hammer, and he was that hammer baby, you know, he's that freelance construction worker,
and he was like a national celebrity,
and then he did murder.
He did a few murders.
And so anyway, that was a famed clip.
Somebody took my face and put it on his clip and it made the rounds on social media and
it was, you know, funny and crazy.
I can't believe that somebody made it.
But then at a certain point, he filed a lawsuit against me, against me, and said
that I was using his footage and his name and like, I don't know, just using him. And so
we reached out to Morgan and Morgan, who's a sponsor of the podcast,
and my buddy Dan Morgan is one of the Morgan's over there.
And so they've been handling that case for us,
and I thought it was over with,
but apparently it's not.
We're still getting stuff in the mail.
And so I wanna check in right now.
We have Arthur Petrosian.
That's right, Nathaniel.
Hey Arthur, how are you today?
Good, brother, how are you?
I'm doing pretty well, man, except, you know,
I keep getting hammered by this case, man, this guy,
he's a resilient, isn't he?
Guys, definitely persistent.
He's unfortunately been able to dance around some
of these procedural issues in federal court
keeping the case alive.
The court still has not heard the case on its merits.
So we're confident that once they hear the case,
they're ultimately gonna dismiss it out.
And how many, has he filed?
Because yeah, I've got, I keep getting paperwork
and a lot of handwritten stuff.
And how many things has he filed at this point?
Multiple motions, multiple amended complaints.
It's fun to read, to be honest.
Every time I come into the office
and I get a handwritten note from Kai from his jail cell. I open it immediately a can we to read it?
I actually have a document that he filed with the court
So this is an official document that he filed in federal court and this is all public record
So anytime you file a document in federal court anybody that has an account could go in and look at this
so document and federal court, anybody that has an account could go in and look at this.
So I think this paragraph gives you a glimpse of what this case is all about and what he's
been doing.
And if you'd like, I'll read it.
It's actually kind of funny.
Yeah, I'd love to.
Yeah, let's get it.
So this is Kai and his moving papers.
He says, plaintiff is writing this at 530 in the morning in his sweltering hot cell in a stone building
without air conditioning that heats up during the day
and holds the heat throughout the night.
He's using a floppy, shank-proof pen.
He typed this at the law library,
but he only gets five hours once a week
if he's granted extended access and his access just ran out.
And then it goes on to say,
even now, Plano has to wake up at 3.30 in the morning,
get his work on this opposition done before 11 a.m.
or else the sweats silk document
would be unacceptable for filing.
Wow.
Defendant, and that's you, in contra distinction,
and these are his words, has began his been making comedy videos in an air-conditioned studio, making a show in the most literal sense of slacking off and enjoying himself instead of filing a responsive pleading.
The core can see for themselves that during the time in question, defendant was having the time of his life.
Well, so, you know, it's going nowhere.
It's just things like this that he continues to file.
Again, the court in order to provide him with due process
is kind of entertaining him at this point.
Okay.
But we strongly believe that within the next 60 to 90 days when the court actually hears the merits of the case and
Actually reviews our motion to dismiss that they're gonna grant it. So well, we have to go to court, do you think?
I would you don't have to but I will definitely be there representing you. Thank you. Thank you very much
Yeah, absolutely. I can't
I'm glad we're glad we're easy. Yeah, no, I'm really grateful for you. I'm glad we're busy. Yeah, I know.
I'm really grateful for you guys helping, man.
God, I mean, it's just so,
and so I guess if somebody's in jail,
they still have the right.
They can still sue somebody.
They can still, even if they did murder,
they can still, you don't lose those rights.
You know, absolutely.
And this was, this is what this case is about.
And that's why we've been kind of sitting on the sidelines for about
Six to eight months is because the federal court wants to make sure that they provide Kai is due process rights and they hear him out
Again, eventually this case gets dismissed, but for now we're going through the motions and making sure that the court hears him out. Wow
And do you guys get a lot of cases like this?
You know, we don't handle a lot of cases like this,
but we pride ourselves in fighting for the people,
and we consider you a good friend Theo.
So we're all hands on deck on this case.
We've got multiple people pushing in.
We've got experts lined up as well too,
just to make sure that you're going to be protected from every angle.
So, you know, it's kind of an exciting case. It provides some comic value for us.
Yeah.
It's different than a lot of the other cases.
But yeah.
I'd almost wait. I always wait. Well, first of all, thank you guys so much, man. You know, Dan Morgan is a nice guy,
and we have a lot of mutual friends,
and thank you guys too for supporting the podcast,
and I know you guys mostly handle
like personal injury, that type of stuff.
That's right.
Right.
But it would almost be crazy.
What if we got to go do like a deposition
or something, that would be wild, wouldn't it?
That would be wild, It would be very entertaining.
We would probably have to take it in jail.
In Kai's cell probably.
I don't know if he'll get extended hours
to go to the law library to his definition to there.
But that would be exciting to do.
Yeah, I appreciate it, man.
Thanks for like at least recognizing
that this is kind of entertaining along the way. I'm sure it is a little bit different than normal
Yeah, I mean, he's definitely kind of a notorious figure so yeah
Well, we're excited to back you up if there's anything else you need you let us know
Thank you. Hopefully hopefully I will not but I appreciate that
You got it. All right. Have a good day, brother.
You too.
Wow. So that's interesting.
You know, that's, but you know, I'm grateful that, you know, if people, if you,
that you don't lose all your rights, you know, I mean, what a, what a fortunate country
where you can do a murder and still go and have rights.
I mean, that is, you don't get,
some places you don't even get that, you know,
I'm sure there's a lot of countries where you don't get that.
Where if you do a murder, that's it.
You know, they're like, hey buddy,
you do, you do, you do the murder.
Then you, that's all you do it, you do the murder. Then you, that's all you do, when.
Sticking in the legal, in the legal space,
I wanna talk about something that has been tough for,
I wanna talk about something.
We, our podcast was defrauded.
We were stolen from, we were taking advantage of,
a lot of ways to say it.
The company that did it is Cast Media, and the man that did it is Colin Thompson.
And I'm going to put his picture in here.
And it's, I don't know exactly how to say this. I'm gonna do my best.
We're part of a larger group of podcasts that we're stolen from, right?
We were part, in total, just between talking with folks,
there's up to $4 million and I know of
that people were taking advantage of.
We're in the six figures I know of podcasts
that are in the seven figures.
And Colin Thompson, that's his name. want to say his name so you know it
People get taken advantage of a lot in business and and and businesses use tactics and stuff to hide to hide themselves and
You know they'll use bankrupts here the threat of this or that and and
And and he may get my money.
That's okay.
I'm fortunate that I can still have touring
and that I can take care of myself.
But you fuck with the wrong rat, Colin.
I'll tell you that, brother.
And I'll just tell you guys what happened.
We had a deal with this company, right?
And it was started off good,
and then it started to get where we were getting less
of our payments.
And we were reading the ads.
We do the ads, you know, we read them out loud,
and you got to support some of them, and thank you.
And then it got to be where we were getting paid less
of the payment we were owed.
And they sell all the ads a year in advance, so you're kind of stuck into the year, right?
And the advertisers were paying Colin Thompson and Cass Media, and they weren't paying us.
They would pay us a little bit, and they had a reason why.
So one of the craziest parts was like, we kept asking, you know, we have to get paid, man, to get paid man, we weren't getting paid.
Finally I was able to make a new deal and just cut ties completely.
I made sure that everything, they breached our contract and so I was able to cut ties.
Then they come along, Colin Thompson comes along and he joins, there's a new company that has a stock that's going live soon, right?
Or it's coming out or something. This company called Podcast One or Live One, right?
I, they, they get me on a call with, I think the guy's name Rob Ellen. Yeah, that's the guy's name Rob Ellen.
And his brother is Doug Ellen, who's like a screenwriter and I think he did.
His brother was pretty successful.
But they get me on a call with this guy Rob Ellen, right?
And they tell me that if you come over to our new network, over to this new network,
podcast one, that will pay you some of what you're owed in stock, right?
But the stock hasn't gone public.
So they're trying to, it felt like to me, they're trying to leverage our podcast and other podcasts to then make
their stock do well.
And then if that happens, then we'll get a share of our money, right?
Like, it just, the whole thing to me felt really city.
And the worst part to me was, I said,
well, what about Colin Thompson?
I said, that guy is a crook.
And they said he's gonna be,
he'll be, they said, we felt like he's done a good job
and that he would be part of the team still.
So that's just, I know some of this
is a lot of insider baseball, man,
but to me it was just fucking just,
it felt real dirty and it felt like just no respect
for podcasting, no respect for the work that we had done.
You know, to get paid by the advertisers and then not pay us. And then for Colin to lead us in this
direction and say, well, if you join this other group before their stock goes out that,
that then we'll pay you in some of the stock, but part of that will be based on if we're
there for it to do well. I don't
know, man, but I know what it feels like to be taking advantage of. And I wouldn't do
that to these people. I wouldn't do that to Colin Thompson. I wouldn't do that to cast
media. And, and so I say this just because I don't want this guy taking advantage of anybody
else. A lot of times in business practices,
especially in entertainment stuff,
a lot of people are able to snake away
and they're able to slip through and use tactics
and shell games and bullshit.
But you fucked with the wrong rat homie.
I have a voice.
And a lot of other people are forced into these bad deals because
they don't, they're afraid to speak up. They're afraid to speak up. And that's not what
our show is about. And yeah, I just want you guys to know that this is the man. We put
his picture up on the thing on the YouTube. the amount of money that I from from other people
Podcasts they've said is over four million dollars
And um
Yeah, it's just the shit's fucking wrong
And I don't also understand how a company expects me to come want to me to come over there
To boot what felt like to me they were using me
to boost their stock price.
And I don't say that out of the ego,
but we've done well.
And that they get all these podcasts,
and well, that'll boost our stock price.
Then we'll go public with the stock
and then based again on their backs,
the stock, there'll be money there.
So it was like, it felt like y'all gonna try
to fuck me twice, homie.
Well, no, no thank you.
So yeah, you can keep that money,
you can't keep it, we'll see how it plays out.
But if you do end up keeping it man, you must have needed it.
You must have needed it, I don't know.
I mean, it doesn't make me stoked, but
But you can't get me to shut up man. You can't get me to shut up and
If that's the cost of it for me to say my fucking piece
You know me other podcasters wanted to say this shift right now, but can't say it
So You know, I mean, other podcasters wanted to say this shift right now, but can't say it. So
anyway
Yeah, that's who I just want you to know. I want you to know about Colin Thompson
I want you to know where I've heard he's going to be working at and I want you to know that he's a crook and to me
It's criminal.
But the way that people are able to cheat and lie and manipulate the system,
you know, he went and got Neil Sacker who worked with Harvey Weinstein to jump on the calls. I mean, he just, I don't, fuck, it's just fucking kind of sad man.
Yeah, but I just wanted to speak up for myself, man.
I've waited a year to speak up for myself.
You know, they put us through so much bullshit.
And I don't know if there's other people over there
that did it too,
or maybe we'll get more information, I don't know.
Or this may be all you ever hear about it, you know?
And so I didn't really know how to,
the best way to do this, but yeah,
I wouldn't do that to somebody. And he they did it. Man, they did it to I mean, some of
these people's podcasts is all they had, man. And these motherfuckers did that. So I'm sorry
about that. And I'm sorry for them. And yeah, I'm just happy to have a voice for myself.
And that's one thing that we built here
that he had nothing to do with.
He had nothing to do with.
In fact, he stole on our backs once
and I'm not letting these people do it to me two times.
So for anybody that had to take that sucker deal over there,
this, I'm speaking on back for all of us, man,
because I know that some of you guys have said to me
that you wanted to say some of these same things.
And I don't mean that out of ego.
I just mean that.
I don't know.
I feel,
I don't know.
Sorry, maybe I shouldn't have said that part.
I don't wanna speak on behalf of those people,
but yeah, I just wouldn't have done that to somebody.
And I'm happy to be able to speak for myself.
I'm so thankful.
I'm thankful to you guys to the listeners that we have this place here and that this is
what we try to do.
And I'm sorry I've been making this about me this past five or six minutes or whatever,
but this was the only public place I could do this where I feel like it would have some effect because to me this guy's like the Bernie made off of podcasting and
And that almost glorifies him in a weird way, but I wanted to be able to say that. Sorry. I'm just rambling, but I
wanted to be able to
speak my piece
Thank you.
With that said, man, let's get back into something here.
I want to say this, I saw on Twitter where Max Holloway,
who is from Maui, was sharing about how a donation
that was made to the Maui Food Bank,
and then Dustin Porier and the Good Fight Foundation
matched their efforts, a $10,000 match.
And on behalf of this past weekend,
we wanna do the same thing.
I know there's a lot of listeners out there
who think like, well, how can I help and what can I do?
And so we're gonna do that together here.
And so yeah, we're gonna match that 10,000.
There's some charities also that Kelly Slater shared
about the surf man.
And so we'll see, but we wanna,
we're gonna match that 10,000 dollars from Maui.
