Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, it's episode d B Phil Phil throwing Phil
Speaker 1: surprised me. Oh yeah, make noise. Nobody knows what we're
Speaker 1: doing because it's a radio show. This is the weirdest.
Speaker 1: This is like a little girl's birthday party. Uh Phil.
Speaker 1: The engineer is passing out hats. He's given us those
Speaker 1: little uh blow unicorn so it looks like a unicorn.
Speaker 1: I know a hundred thousand, but come away from Grand Candy,
Speaker 1: there's still a hundred on it. Yanni. Yeah, no sugar
Speaker 1: for you, Yanni, Yanni is the year no sugar? Well,
Speaker 1: I'm going three months, three months no sugar. Yeah, refined sugar.
Speaker 1: I'm still like this morning, I had raisins in my
Speaker 1: eld meal. That's sugar. No processed sugars. Yeah, chto type
Speaker 1: of situation. I don't know if the Croissan has sugar
Speaker 1: guarantee that's got sugar in it? Really? Yeah, all those
Speaker 1: breads do for sure. Well, there's a teeny tiny bit.
Speaker 1: I'm doing your best. No ice cream at night, no
Speaker 1: oreo cookies on media. Yeah, man, I know how you
Speaker 1: love that. It's gonna be tough, but it has been
Speaker 1: tough a lot harder than not drinking booze. You're back
Speaker 1: on the booze buddy pulls strength full. So you're like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna push the oreos aside, bring me, bring daddy,
Speaker 1: the the whiskey. No, you know what, I've become a
Speaker 1: tequila man. That's a good time. I agree. I'll do
Speaker 1: a little patron put it in a and in a
Speaker 1: little high ball and some lime juice with a little ice. Gosh,
Speaker 1: I know you don't like ice, but cocktail cocktail, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's okay. No. The reason I'm doing is j T
Speaker 1: Van's aunt, our buddy. Yeah, he's a big keela guy,
Speaker 1: and he's telling me about how your body can process
Speaker 1: it eight times faster than the next alcohol. So it
Speaker 1: could be completely well, but I think it also leaves
Speaker 1: let's do a mediator fact check around that one eight times.
Speaker 1: Come on, Joe, you got a computer. Well, it could
Speaker 1: be complete placebo, but I could swear if I did
Speaker 1: what I did the other night at our friend's wedding.
Speaker 1: Probably I'm guessing three shot skis and maybe four cocktails.
Speaker 1: Please explain the shot ski. Shot ski is usually an
Speaker 1: old ski. Eat this candy that has shot glasses, glue,
Speaker 1: food screwed somehow attached to it. They actually had holes
Speaker 1: drilled in the ski and then the shot glasses were
Speaker 1: dropped in there. That way the bartenders could just keep
Speaker 1: giving out fresh ones. And they had everybody signed the
Speaker 1: ski as opposed to a book or something, and I'm
Speaker 1: guessing no pre up in their house. Whatever. So you
Speaker 1: have got a you got a ski with four or
Speaker 1: five shot glasses attached to it, and they get filled up,
Speaker 1: and four or five people line up and all lift
Speaker 1: the ski together. It's a team effort and tossed back
Speaker 1: a little. I like it. Whatever you want, Joe, why
Speaker 1: don't you, Yeah, why don't you take on the man's
Speaker 1: little just fact checking everything we say for the next
Speaker 1: little bit to bring it all during around the next
Speaker 1: morning at eight am after going to bed at one something,
Speaker 1: how's up? I feel like a chap feeling good. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I swear if I would have done that with
Speaker 1: brown liquor, I would not have been in the same
Speaker 1: in regards to j that that fact checks. I would
Speaker 1: listen to everything JT vans and never tells me about anything.
Speaker 1: I love. This website does listen as the healthiest hard
Speaker 1: liquor is that at tequila dot com tequila, obvious dot com.
Speaker 1: What did you what did the mediaor podcast do for
Speaker 1: a hundred I don't remember. We uh went down and
Speaker 1: actually recorded. Uh was Joe Rogan the Godfather Godfather podcast?
Speaker 1: What do you think you're gonna do? What episode do
Speaker 1: you on now? You're in the forties. Yeah, I'll record
Speaker 1: forty one today and uh then forty two shortly after that.
Speaker 1: Because Phil's being selfish and leaving the office, I'm going
Speaker 1: with you. You're gonna be gone as well. Uh, Phil, Yeah,
Speaker 1: have you ever We're gonna have to talk about the
Speaker 1: recording we have scheduled. Phil unbelievable. Wanted to see the
Speaker 1: grand old Opry feels. So we're doing a little field trip.
Speaker 1: I'm excited. Think cal Coln sever going for the Wild
Speaker 1: Turkey Foundation, National Wild Ty Station. Excuse me, get it right, Phil?
Speaker 1: And they're also recording a podcast while down there, So
Speaker 1: and and and Janice will not be joining, So I
Speaker 1: am the I'm the new Jannie for a day. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Are you gonna bring the digital me with you? Oh
Speaker 1: that's a great idea. Yeah, probably and sound Bank as
Speaker 1: soon as we get to the airport. Your name is
Speaker 1: going to be honest Okay, that's fine. We will only
Speaker 1: answer to Janice, is it? Or Janice? Or yeah or
Speaker 1: yeah or Janice. Now, cal do you think you're gonna
Speaker 1: make it to a hundred without having some sort of breakdown? Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: breakdown confident people. I just want to talk about how
Speaker 1: hard it is to get a weekly podcast out the door,
Speaker 1: especially the one that you do. Yes, I want that
Speaker 1: you do is way harder than this rambling nonsense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, research and you know, not try. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: there the the loophole is it's fun. People take great
Speaker 1: joy in pointing out the inaccuracies and things that you
Speaker 1: got wrong. And but and then on the back end
Speaker 1: of that, it also allows me to take more time
Speaker 1: to learn about a subject. So I found find that,
Speaker 1: you know, it's not the end of the world to
Speaker 1: get something wrong. It actually is more beneficial in my
Speaker 1: mind to myself and the audience too, because then we
Speaker 1: get to revisit something and learn more about it. Um
Speaker 1: And there's a lot of smart folks listening to the podcast,
Speaker 1: lots of people with um you know letters behind their names.
Speaker 1: And we talked about lab based met a couple episodes.
Speaker 1: A going a nuclear physicist wrote in to correct me
Speaker 1: on how energy is used in our universe. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: we'll read that in the later one, but that that happened.
Speaker 1: But I agree with you because a lot of times
Speaker 1: I'll stumble on something, we'll start talking about it, and
Speaker 1: I'll know in the moment that I don't know enough
Speaker 1: about this subject. But I know we're going to continue
Speaker 1: to bring people on that do and learn and learn
Speaker 1: and learn and learn. Yeah, it's a to get to
Speaker 1: get this far in a conversation. You kinda kind of
Speaker 1: take some side. Does kind of remind me of m
Speaker 1: Phil You know this the it's an old Simpsons episode
Speaker 1: and they're doing like they're a hundredth episode or something,
Speaker 1: and all the people that right into the show are
Speaker 1: like doctor or yeah, prime minister, the cultivated at a
Speaker 1: very seasoned audience. Yeah, it's very highly educated um audience
Speaker 1: from around the world. Got it. Well, we got a
Speaker 1: lot to do here. This is gonna it's called a
Speaker 1: podcast of too many giveaways. We have fashioned Phil didn't
Speaker 1: really I asked Phil to give me some ideas and
Speaker 1: he didn't give me ship, So I had to come
Speaker 1: up with them all by myself. Helped with the one
Speaker 1: Joe helped me a little bit with one. Um, we
Speaker 1: got four different giveaways we're gonna we're gonna go through
Speaker 1: on the show. They're all of them. You know how
Speaker 1: normally giveaways you have to give something, you have to
Speaker 1: give your email, or you have to give something and
Speaker 1: then you get things. Well, in this case, you just
Speaker 1: have to I just want you to give me something.
Speaker 1: But it's something that's gonna make me laugh. It's not
Speaker 1: really you don't have to go and hashtag anything or
Speaker 1: give any personal information. You just have to do something
Speaker 1: that's gonna make me laughing. We're gonna give you some
Speaker 1: cool prizes. I think were like ten things, and please
Speaker 1: be over eighteen years of age. Yeah, but we're gonna, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're just gonna fly off the handle and give some
Speaker 1: stuff away as an appreciation for everybody that's listened over
Speaker 1: these last hundred episodes. So what we're gonna do is
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about a subject and then I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna randomly throw in a giveaway. You're gonna have to
Speaker 1: listen because I'm not gonna put this on social media.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to listen. Is the only place you're
Speaker 1: gonna get a chance to hear the details of how
Speaker 1: you win these things. So we're gonna drop those in
Speaker 1: throughout the show. So get a pen, pencil, or paper,
Speaker 1: or your phone, whatever and take notes because we're not
Speaker 1: gonna repeat ourselves. We're gonna tell you one time how
Speaker 1: you can win, and that's it. You gotta go do
Speaker 1: the thing that we ask you to do to win
Speaker 1: these prizes. But first we're gonna talk about a bunch
Speaker 1: of stuff filled we were talking a little bit about.
Speaker 1: Peter wrote a letter. I told you about this a
Speaker 1: little bit cow. This might be good for your show.
Speaker 1: Peter wrote a letter to the Postani Groundhog Club arguing
Speaker 1: to turn Postanny Phil. Everybody knows who poks tiny Phil
Speaker 1: is Phil. You're you're aware, Yes, the groundhog that the
Speaker 1: seers prognosticators agnosticators. They wrote a letter. People for the
Speaker 1: Ethical Treatment of Animals wrote a letter as they are
Speaker 1: wont to do, yes, they tend to write letters. It's
Speaker 1: and part of this was written by Peter. Executive vice
Speaker 1: president Tracy Reeman. I believe that's how you'd say that.
Speaker 1: She says this, gentle vulnerable groundhogs are not barometers. They're
Speaker 1: not wrong. I mean, that's true. Fact check that Tequila
Speaker 1: dot Com say that's true. Peter is offering the club
Speaker 1: a win win situation, breed life into a tire tradition,
Speaker 1: and finally do the right thing by a long suffering animal.
Speaker 1: What is the right thing to do? Well? They say,
Speaker 1: as a prey species groundhog, groundhogs actively avoid humans. Being
Speaker 1: in close proximity to the public causes these animals great stress.
Speaker 1: When Phil is dragged out of his hole and held
Speaker 1: up the flashing lights and crowds, he has no idea
Speaker 1: what's happening, Joe, no idea. Being regulated to a library
Speaker 1: habitat for the other days of the year doesn't allow
Speaker 1: him or the other groundhogs there to dig, burrow, or forage.
Speaker 1: It's no kind of life for these animals. Holy shit.
Speaker 1: And then here's what they say is their solution, using
Speaker 1: technology advance electro mechanical devices such as animatronics instead of
Speaker 1: live animals and more popular than ever. We even have
Speaker 1: the technology to create an animatronic groundhog with artificial intelligence
Speaker 1: that could actually predict the weather and AI. Phil would
Speaker 1: renew interest in Poksutani, generating a great deal of buzz,
Speaker 1: much like Sony's robot dog and it goes on. Can
Speaker 1: I just say this is the best idea that Peter
Speaker 1: has ever had. I love it. I feel like a
Speaker 1: pretty good idea. Would you watch the road? Did you
Speaker 1: watch the ceremony? There? No, never know, it just doesn't
Speaker 1: interest me, not at all. Cal I mean Groundhog Day
Speaker 1: right with the great Bill Murray. Um. I keep thinking
Speaker 1: of the super Bowl commercial. That's the Yeah, I just
Speaker 1: got the public consciousness. Yeah, I mean that's all you
Speaker 1: need to I mean that, that's all you need to
Speaker 1: keep the spotlight on the tiny little western Pennsylvania town
Speaker 1: puckstani Um and the I mean the Peter I mean there. Yes,
Speaker 1: they're correct, Like I guarantee you the groundhog would much
Speaker 1: rather be burrowing and doing its thing because that's how
Speaker 1: they're wired. Um. However, I'll guarantee you also that the
Speaker 1: groundhogs and captivity do live longer than your groundhogs. That
Speaker 1: some Western Pennsivnia kids probably gonna take potshot hat as
Speaker 1: it's running across the fence row the ground. What's the
Speaker 1: average lifespan of ground animals are made for captivity? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I totally get it, and I would love to see
Speaker 1: a robot ground hog pop out of a hole to
Speaker 1: predict the winner. But I would guarantee that this groundhog
Speaker 1: or the ground hogs and the Groundhog Club are treated
Speaker 1: very well. And they're not. They're not just a drug
Speaker 1: out of a hole and held up to flashing lights
Speaker 1: and screaming people. Um once a year. And then the
Speaker 1: whole thing is just if you look at a picture
Speaker 1: of it, there's like, dudes, I don't. I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't, And I don't think I've ever watched this live.
Speaker 1: But there's guys in top hats, full three piece suits
Speaker 1: with both eyes yelling and screaming while holding up this
Speaker 1: confused looking pretty fat groundholg. So he seems like he's okay.
Speaker 1: And you have to imagine in order to pick up
Speaker 1: a groundhog, that's not the first time the groundhog has
Speaker 1: been picked up. That's a conditioned animal. No. I used
Speaker 1: to have a hamster named Squeakers when I was a kid.
Speaker 1: He would sit on my shoulder and need lettuce. Oh.
Speaker 1: I was researching um animals that have have eaten people,
Speaker 1: taken advantage of people dead people. Uh, And there is
Speaker 1: a recorded case of hamster chewing on a deceased person
Speaker 1: that could have been you, It could have been squeakers.
Speaker 1: Cow's a lot more fun to hang out with for
Speaker 1: his pocket. There was also what do you have the
Speaker 1: one where the cats were eating? You know. That's why
Speaker 1: you know, I'm very biased because I think cats are
Speaker 1: just horribly They're little ecological disasters out there that people
Speaker 1: put up on a pest pedestal and think are great. Um,
Speaker 1: just keep him in your house, that's all I want.
Speaker 1: But you have a cat, right, you have a cat.
Speaker 1: I've got two cats? Yeah, keep him inside field? Did
Speaker 1: they stay inside or they go out? And they go outside?
Speaker 1: And you probably have a dead mouse on our doorstep
Speaker 1: several times a week. Joe, what's the lifeband of groundhog? Ye?
Speaker 1: I didn't want to interrupt six years Max in the wild.
Speaker 1: You're the Jamie of the part. You gotta interrupt six
Speaker 1: six years Max in the wild two or three being average,
Speaker 1: But in captivity fourteen years, dude, we're doubling the lifespan
Speaker 1: of these beautiful majestic ground dwelling Yeah. But then, like
Speaker 1: if I was a peta person, though, I would be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what else, probably lived a lot longer in captivity,
Speaker 1: you know, so you can't see This guy's got a pink,
Speaker 1: little pink party hat on with some gold litter. And
Speaker 1: I'm not afraid of debate. I'm not afraid to debate. No,
Speaker 1: I mean the groundhog does not want to be there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know it's wiring says that he needs to be
Speaker 1: doing something else, namely, how do you eat? Procreating? It
Speaker 1: doesn't doesn't want to be doing that, I'm sure, But
Speaker 1: at the same time, it's living a real comfortable life whatever,
Speaker 1: whatever path you want to take, I'm not gonna live
Speaker 1: and die on the on the groundhog. I will tell
Speaker 1: you if you read the comments on the YouTube section
Speaker 1: of any pet video, it is so disturbing because this
Speaker 1: theme emerges of disappointment, Like if the video doesn't show,
Speaker 1: people are like, oh, what happened? I signed up for this?
Speaker 1: Shocking all man, I want to see Hold on the Peter, folks,
Speaker 1: they're subscribed to the channel they want to see. That's
Speaker 1: the theme that emerged. It's like, here's this video of
Speaker 1: possum being dropped, but it's it's a possum being lowered
Speaker 1: gently in a plexi glass box um and people are like,
Speaker 1: what the hell I wanted possum being dropped like that.
Speaker 1: I care for I care for the animal violence to
Speaker 1: be outraged by exactly. I came for the violence, and
Speaker 1: all I got was this T shirt. I'm I'm a
Speaker 1: big speaking of and all I got was a T shirt.
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of theme parks, massive fan. I
Speaker 1: love the production design. Listen, you can roll your eyes
Speaker 1: at the whole capitalistic horror of it all, but it
Speaker 1: takes a lot of creativity to build something like a
Speaker 1: Disney World, and I respect that it does. Next week
Speaker 1: when um, since we're gonna be there over Valentine's Day,
Speaker 1: be the the bigger person. Let Stephen Katie have their
Speaker 1: own Valentine's Day. I'm gonna take Phil the New Jannis
Speaker 1: to Dollywood. It would love nothing more said, You're going
Speaker 1: to n W t F. Phil is going to go
Speaker 1: in his first hunt this year. I'm taking him to
Speaker 1: Texas for turkeys, so you gotta really like I will
Speaker 1: surround him with the turkey culture support him. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: take several videos and put them up on on the
Speaker 1: install line of for first impression of Phil and the

Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, I mean, there's there's no you just
Speaker 1: you're gonna be immersed in it. It's at this place
Speaker 1: called the gay Lord opery Land Hotel and it is
Speaker 1: a theme park, a labyrinth, an indoor labyrinth that I
Speaker 1: I feel like I can find my way out of
Speaker 1: things pretty well. Not the gay Lord opery Land Hotel
Speaker 1: resort like it is. There's so many buffets, you can't
Speaker 1: go around the corner without another doors and elevators that
Speaker 1: go up half the floor and then three steps down
Speaker 1: to go to this place and that it's very confusing,
Speaker 1: and there's turkey calling everywhere. It is the last somebody
Speaker 1: told me this before I went the first time. They're like,
Speaker 1: the last thing you hear before you go to bed
Speaker 1: is turkey calling. And the first thing you hear when
Speaker 1: you get up is turkey calling and a dream. You
Speaker 1: are laying in your bed and all you can hear
Speaker 1: is it's amazing. It's just bizarre, and people are so
Speaker 1: pumped to be there. I always like how your hand
Speaker 1: when you do it without a diaphragm, has kind of
Speaker 1: like a hair left a little bit. Let's hear it again.
Speaker 1: I don't know is that the right way to call
Speaker 1: it hair? What is that little like that? Lower, a

Speaker 1: not going to talk about anywhere else. Your bastards. All right.
Speaker 1: Disney is giving Bambi as cj I make over. Have
Speaker 1: you guys seen the new Lion King? Like, uh, they're
Speaker 1: calling like live action. This isn't gonna be a great
Speaker 1: conversation if nobody's seen. I started it with my family
Speaker 1: the other day, too scary. Well, I got ten minutes
Speaker 1: in and it was just a shot for shot remake
Speaker 1: of the four version, just with like incredibly realistic looking animation,
Speaker 1: and then I turned it off because I was so bored.
Speaker 1: I was like, what am I doing this? I've seen
Speaker 1: this movie, so look at Joe's gonna look up a
Speaker 1: clip to show Cal and John it. So basically what
Speaker 1: it was really just the cartoon remade. It's they've done
Speaker 1: this with a Laddin slight differences. Sure, yeah, they added
Speaker 1: an extra song for Beyonce. You know, some jokes from
Speaker 1: Tomona Bumba, But this is basically like the exact basically
Speaker 1: the exact film that came out whenever these films came out.
Speaker 1: But they've done it for Dumbo, they've done it for
Speaker 1: A Ladd. They just did it for a Laddin where
Speaker 1: Will Smith was the Genie. They did a Lady in
Speaker 1: the Tramp one on Disney. Plus they did Holy Shakes. Ready, yeah,
Speaker 1: show that, show that too. I'm gonna show that too.
Speaker 1: I've seen the trailer. You've seen the trailer, okay, but
Speaker 1: we can watch it again, talk you through. I mean, basically,
Speaker 1: if you've not seen it out there, this is basically
Speaker 1: a c g I real live action looking version of
Speaker 1: this film. Oh yeah, it's exactly the same. In the dark.
Speaker 1: Who was in this? Uh phil Um Donald Glover plays
Speaker 1: the adults. Simba Beyonce plays Nala really Beyonce. James Earl
Speaker 1: Jones came back to be Mufasa, doing the same exact
Speaker 1: lines in the same exact role. I did watch this
Speaker 1: on a plane and I just thought, this is like,
Speaker 1: it's overboard. It's just a little bit. Also, it's uncanny.
Speaker 1: It's unsettling because none of the animals have human facial
Speaker 1: expressions where it's like you can add that you can
Speaker 1: animate that in the cartoon, give like human features. You
Speaker 1: know how much everyone at this company loves it when
Speaker 1: they do that. But um, but like watching all these
Speaker 1: animals with absolutely no expression, like try to convey human emotions.
Speaker 1: It's not it's it's weird to watch. I say, they're
Speaker 1: not anatomically correct. Judging on the ward Hog, you're looking
Speaker 1: for ward hog balls and Seth Rogan placed. Really, there's
Speaker 1: a couple of questions that we have to answer here
Speaker 1: once this How long is this? Joe? Yeah? Yeah, Now
Speaker 1: I do have to say I'm glad we watched that
Speaker 1: because that that's way more cartoonish than I thought it
Speaker 1: was gonna be. Really, yeah, can you can you imagine
Speaker 1: what a live action I was reading this article in
Speaker 1: fast company dot com that was talking about it's time
Speaker 1: for this trend to die, like they're just Disney is
Speaker 1: legitimately just doing the same movie over a little bit
Speaker 1: more realistic, going back to the well, I like double
Speaker 1: down on that, just breaking in. That's all I wish
Speaker 1: I could do that. I could do a live action
Speaker 1: version of my podcast. I'll do a jazz dance. Look,
Speaker 1: how is that going to look for Bambi, because that's
Speaker 1: gonna be We're gonna have some problems with this film.
Speaker 1: Critics are saying it's gonna be too traumatizing because it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a kill shot. But there isn't a kill
Speaker 1: shot in Bamby. No, it's just the you hear the
Speaker 1: report of the blouch, yeah, as it were? Do you
Speaker 1: even hear that? Or do you is it just the
Speaker 1: in the theme score? That score? I try to watch
Speaker 1: some I watched some clips from Baby after I read
Speaker 1: this article, and I just I started to get sad
Speaker 1: because I know this is gonna be Who's gonna play
Speaker 1: the Hunter? Do you see there's going to be a
Speaker 1: cultra villain or whatever? That'd be incredible, That would be incredible. Um,
Speaker 1: Christoph Waltz possibly, And who's gonna voice Bamby? I mean,
Speaker 1: this is all these are all things. This is going
Speaker 1: to happen. They're gonna make five million dollars off this thing,
Speaker 1: and it's just gonna reintroduce generation where they call him, now,
Speaker 1: what's the generation after Millennials, which I'm at the tail
Speaker 1: end of this is going to introduce gen Z this
Speaker 1: idea in in a live action way, which is way
Speaker 1: more damning than then the cartoon version. And so boy,
Speaker 1: I feel like we're in for it. We'll see another
Speaker 1: year until it comes out, but worst we'll see really poised.
Speaker 1: Right said, I haven't got a dig into the report yet,
Speaker 1: but over half of America didn't make the choice to
Speaker 1: recreate it outside last year, So right, like at all
Speaker 1: at all? But I mean, obviously there's a lot of
Speaker 1: loopholes on that, right, It's like, you know, that sounds
Speaker 1: like a strange thing to admit. Yeah, but you know
Speaker 1: a friend of mine was a timber cruiser for the
Speaker 1: Forest Service. Right, every day hiked many many miles out
Speaker 1: doing whatever. And on the weekends that dude didn't recreationally
Speaker 1: hike anywhere. He's like, no, I'm drinking beer and then
Speaker 1: I will go back to my job of hiking. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when we say recreate outside, it's like go to the park.
Speaker 1: Part of that I didn't need. I need a dig
Speaker 1: in more. But it just seems it just seems to
Speaker 1: me like the timing. I'm not surprised. I haven't. It's
Speaker 1: been quite a while since I lived anywhere close to
Speaker 1: an urban environment. But I mean there's people in Austin,
Speaker 1: Texas where I used to live that they'd be hard
Speaker 1: pressed to get out. They get out to the you know,
Speaker 1: get out to the park once a year, and that's
Speaker 1: a big deal. A lot of instagram ship goes on
Speaker 1: when they go. There's like thirty pictures of standing by
Speaker 1: rock Boy spent a couple of days in Austin where
Speaker 1: I would get like one of those dog cones and
Speaker 1: a fix it to the nearest air conditioning unit. Uh.
Speaker 1: It's a very warm and sticky place. The need for
Speaker 1: yetti cooler out there. But what do you think about this, Yohnnie?
Speaker 1: About this film? Well, we're just gonna have to roll
Speaker 1: with the punches when when they happen. Yeah, what's the
Speaker 1: punch going to be? Though? People are just gonna go
Speaker 1: go back to hating us evil hunters for shooting baby.
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think this remake of this
Speaker 1: movie is gonna move the needle. You don't think so, Phil, Well,
Speaker 1: you show it to your kids? Probably not, Since none
Speaker 1: of my kids were interested in watching The Lion King,
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I don't. I think Disney's kind of
Speaker 1: pushing these remakes too hard. But then again, it's like
Speaker 1: why King made like a billion dollars, So what do
Speaker 1: I know. I just uh think they're kind of saturating
Speaker 1: the market with all these remakes because they've got Mulan
Speaker 1: coming out next year to one point six billion dollars worldwide.
Speaker 1: The Lion King made, so why not? The Lion King
Speaker 1: was a more is a more modern iconic story, like
Speaker 1: it came Baby came out in nineteen forty two, Like
Speaker 1: it's uh, I think I think it's kind of faded
Speaker 1: out of the like the Lion King was. It was
Speaker 1: like a big deal to my generation, so I took
Speaker 1: my I'm I'm the kind of person that would like
Speaker 1: take my kids to see it because it was an
Speaker 1: important story to me. But it's like Bambi was is
Speaker 1: like kind of can you fact check that he got
Speaker 1: nineteen forty two right? He pulled it right out of
Speaker 1: his ass. Believe that right. But the thing is Phil
Speaker 1: Brings and podcast, I got no idea when Baby came
Speaker 1: out it was an arrow or fantasial fantage is incredible, Yes,
Speaker 1: it is incredible. Good on you feel good on you
Speaker 1: feel for knowing the exact year they did Lady in
Speaker 1: the Tramp too, that was a straight to the Disney
Speaker 1: streaming service. Did you watch it? Didn't they do Dumbo? Yeah?
Speaker 1: That was directed by Tim Burton. That was I wanted
Speaker 1: to see that. Really, Dumbo has got some sad stuff
Speaker 1: came out in Really. That's the thing about Bamby, though,
Speaker 1: was that no one can no one remembers what the
Speaker 1: actual plot of Bamby is. I accept that his mom
Speaker 1: gets shot by a hunter. The rabbit skunks. What's the
Speaker 1: skunks name? I don't know this because I was just
Speaker 1: reading about it. Floor Flora, flower flowers. Not very creative,
Speaker 1: that's what flora skunk? His name flower assuming because of
Speaker 1: the irony. Alright, next giveaway, you guys ready, phils, you

Speaker 1: that's something I like it. I don't love you know that.
Speaker 1: Do you know what MC stays? We don't Marvel, Comic,

Speaker 1: the show. That was a big failure, big time failure.
Speaker 1: Lost a lot of listeners. I got a lot of
Speaker 1: support from a couple of people. I lost a lot
Speaker 1: of listeners over that. What else he likes that I'm
Speaker 1: weigh into Disneyland right now. He's gonna hunt turkey soon. Uh.
Speaker 1: He likes white claw, only slightly less than you r. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's true. Yeah, only slightly less. He likes a natural
Speaker 1: lime flavor of white fall. Let's see what I dressed
Speaker 1: up with white claw. Yeah, he was the Doc Clauida

Speaker 1: Please don't let me down. Please please, please don't let
Speaker 1: me down. I have a very I have a newborn
Speaker 1: at home. Life's very boring. This is the only joy
Speaker 1: that I have outside of a little family. So please please,
Speaker 1: life is boring with being sarcastic with a new born. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like it's like boring. Like you know, you went to
Speaker 1: a ski wedding. I didn't do that. I was invited,
Speaker 1: but if I was, I couldn't see. I see. I
Speaker 1: got kind of stay home. And it's not that. It's
Speaker 1: just enjoy precious life. Yes, that's it. That's it. There's
Speaker 1: no like adventure other than the the adventure of keeping
Speaker 1: people alive and clean and fed. So maybe I'll back
Speaker 1: off the thing I said before. I love you, honey.
Speaker 1: All right, we gotta talk about this coyote named Mercy
Speaker 1: phil or Cal. I'm gonna let you kind of this
Speaker 1: one is. This one goes back to the Poxtoni fill thing,
Speaker 1: but it's it's so much worse. It's this is shocking
Speaker 1: to me and I did a terrible job writing it
Speaker 1: up for the Weekend reviews. I'm thank you for giving
Speaker 1: me another shot here. So basically, come out swinging nanny
Speaker 1: walks a child through Franklin Park. I believe it is.
Speaker 1: Kyote comes out, bites, where's Franklin Park, Chicago? As Lincoln
Speaker 1: Park isn't it? Is it Lincoln Park? It's right next
Speaker 1: to Franklin Franklin High School, Franklin anyway, Uh, coyote comes out,
Speaker 1: bites the child in the face, face bite, Lincoln Park.
Speaker 1: The Great band Kyote eventually is captured. There's you know,
Speaker 1: they need to make sure it's the right coyote, so
Speaker 1: they do you know, the full battery of tests to
Speaker 1: determine a if the coyote is uh sick, diseased with
Speaker 1: anything else, And they do a DNA test, so they
Speaker 1: pull coyote, DNA off the child and make sure that yes,
Speaker 1: this is the right coyote. All of this cost money.
Speaker 1: The coyote is in a rehab center for life now
Speaker 1: because uh it's been a child and can't be released
Speaker 1: somewhere again, great costs. And then you start reading in
Speaker 1: and every news outlet is like, yeah, coyotes aren't that
Speaker 1: big of a problem. But you know, the guy got
Speaker 1: bit the same day, and then there was the school
Speaker 1: got shut down because the coyote. Another coyote was spotted
Speaker 1: and so they had like a lock in at at
Speaker 1: a school because of a coyote. And then you know,
Speaker 1: basically I'm just getting more perturbed over like the city funding.
Speaker 1: Unless Chicago is has every we're gonna go Chicago later
Speaker 1: on this year, and if it's not like the cleanest,
Speaker 1: most well run, spectacular city on the planet, because where
Speaker 1: that's some bad news over with funds to where they're like,
Speaker 1: let's help out the coyotes. Um, yeah, you know, I'm
Speaker 1: going to be very angered. Here's what I would do.
Speaker 1: Kill the kyle, not with a big bullethole either, just
Speaker 1: bonk him on the head so we could skin him,
Speaker 1: tan it and then sell the fur to the highest
Speaker 1: bidder and make something out of it and then use
Speaker 1: that money to give it to some poor kids that's
Speaker 1: doesn't have enough money for food or clothes or an education. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that would be a good And again, I think you
Speaker 1: did a great job of doing what the papers did,
Speaker 1: which was totally forget about the five year old child
Speaker 1: that got bit in the face and was when he
Speaker 1: was hospitalized. At the end of the article that I read,
Speaker 1: it's it's like, it's like excusing counties are common throughout
Speaker 1: the Chicagoland area and protected under the Illinois Wildlife Code.
Speaker 1: Resident should always tay caution if they encounter a kyote,
Speaker 1: notifying controls. It remains extremely rare coyote to approach or
Speaker 1: bite a person. And that's my favorite part. It's like
Speaker 1: it's extremely were air for the coyote to be seen
Speaker 1: by people. Yet here's all these reports of coyotes being
Speaker 1: seen by people. In fact, we had to shut a
Speaker 1: school down. Yeah, in fact, we fished one out of
Speaker 1: the harbor. Child get bit in the face, And now
Speaker 1: there's a debate. It's just so weird, man, Like, there's
Speaker 1: so little debate anymore. If the big nasty rottweiler pitbull
Speaker 1: bites a child. It's like dogs canna get killed. This
Speaker 1: is my favorite. I I would like, I would love
Speaker 1: to link this article because that's the last quote they
Speaker 1: give in the preceding like ten paragraphs are all about
Speaker 1: encounters of coyotes and like humans, and the last one
Speaker 1: is like it's extremely rare, but here's ten cases they said.
Speaker 1: A thirty two year old man said he was bitten
Speaker 1: by a coyout close to where the six year old
Speaker 1: blow was built. Later that day, officials confirmed the kyater bite.
Speaker 1: A dog was also reportedly bitten by a coyote and
Speaker 1: had to be rescued by its owner and passer by.
Speaker 1: So right, the dog got bitten and had to be
Speaker 1: rescued by two people, which means that the coyote didn't
Speaker 1: just like come up and nip the dog. The dogs
Speaker 1: had to be separated, the coyote and the dog. I
Speaker 1: got like, otherwise, what was how do you rescue the dog?
Speaker 1: And why would it take two people? Of the kyote
Speaker 1: just bid something and ran away. There's so much cognitive
Speaker 1: dissidence in this in this story that my brain just
Speaker 1: wants to shut off. And again, you know Chicago more
Speaker 1: power to you if you don't have anything else to
Speaker 1: worry about, if you have all the other social issues
Speaker 1: taken care of, and there's plenty of cash overflowing your
Speaker 1: coffers to take on, you know, the plight of peaceful
Speaker 1: coexistence within the city between human and coyote. Awesome. This
Speaker 1: is my favorite part. Lakati has been named Mercy. He
Speaker 1: won't be released back to the wild since DNA evidence
Speaker 1: shows he likely bit the boy, but he will be
Speaker 1: permanently placed in an educational setting. Was with specifics you
Speaker 1: have to be determined, according to a Facebook post, and
Speaker 1: then it goes on the list all the comments in
Speaker 1: favor of putting this county in captivity, like thank you
Speaker 1: for saving this beautiful animal, and guarantee you when you
Speaker 1: go to the Field Museum. I'm going to the Field
Speaker 1: And Jana said he's going to the Field Museum with
Speaker 1: me in Chicago. Um, they'll have a coyote display and
Speaker 1: it will be somewhere in the great sage brush this ecosystem. Um,
Speaker 1: then they'll probably be like a ground squirrel and a
Speaker 1: jack rabbit poised with it amongst the sage brush and
Speaker 1: the bunch grass. And you know, it's not going to
Speaker 1: be the scrappy coyote an accurate depiction of the coyote.
Speaker 1: This guy. The reason that they never know man the
Speaker 1: Fieldmaseum might be keeping up might be I'm excited. I'm
Speaker 1: very excited because five show. Yes, some some close. I
Speaker 1: always get messed up on this because I'm like Chicago,
Speaker 1: but it's never Chicago. It's like somewhere, somewhere, a big place.
Speaker 1: You're actually in Wisconsin across the border. You're in Peoria,
Speaker 1: three hours away. Uh, my favorite place, by the way.
Speaker 1: That that again here they say that someone shot this
Speaker 1: with a baby gun and that's possibly why he became aggressive.
Speaker 1: Again like like piling on the reasons why this might
Speaker 1: have happened. And a wild animal does wild animals ship
Speaker 1: if you dig through the different news reports. So yes,
Speaker 1: this this dog or coyote Sorry a colloquial. Colloquialism is
Speaker 1: often to refer to coyotes as dogs. Out here in Montana,
Speaker 1: Um the coyote had been shot by a baby or
Speaker 1: a pellet something something frominary rifle. They couldn't determine when
Speaker 1: that was, but the assumption is is like, well, coyotes
Speaker 1: would never jump out and bite somebody. So this uh,
Speaker 1: the fact that it has a baby in it or
Speaker 1: a pellet in it, probably made it by this child.
Speaker 1: And it's just like, but they can't determine when the
Speaker 1: thing got you shot. They can't. It's they're obviously just
Speaker 1: looking for reasons spend a bunch of money to Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just found that definite signs of stress and trauma.
Speaker 1: That that was one of my favorite parts of the
Speaker 1: best part. You have extremely frightened. It was extremely frightened Mercy.
Speaker 1: But they aren't. They just aren't calling it by They
Speaker 1: invented a name that just go right with it. Mercy
Speaker 1: was extremely frightened when admitted to the rehabilitation center and
Speaker 1: showed definite signs of stress and trauma. You're telling me
Speaker 1: the wild animal that was captured by people and thrown
Speaker 1: in an enclosure. I can't wait. It's frightened and now
Speaker 1: it's being told it will live forever on in an enclosure.
Speaker 1: We see we're seeing a pattern here. Don't you dare
Speaker 1: put a groundhog in an enclosure? Do it with a
Speaker 1: coyote though? And I can't wait till Mercy has its
Speaker 1: own c g I movie about the triumph of how
Speaker 1: it educated children for year to come, it will probably
Speaker 1: learn to talk and write a book. You'll have a memoir.
Speaker 1: Well that's the nanny and the child are walking through
Speaker 1: the park. The coyote jumps out bites the child. They
Speaker 1: startled the coyote. They startled, ran up the hill and
Speaker 1: startled the sure should be just running around parks? What like?
Speaker 1: Does the child need education? I mean, now it needs
Speaker 1: serious education because it's gonna be traumatized. But a cool scar.
Speaker 1: It's like, what are you going to tell the kid
Speaker 1: to do differently? Don't go outside, bad things happen. We'll
Speaker 1: go to parks, you know? Or you know? I what, Janice,
Speaker 1: you're the only other parent in the room aside from
Speaker 1: Ben and Phil and yeah three out of I thought
Speaker 1: you're about to say the only real parent in the room.
Speaker 1: Ben clearly wants to hide inside of cooler to get
Speaker 1: away from his family. Yeah that's interesting. What do you
Speaker 1: tell that kid? I mean, you ever know it might
Speaker 1: spawn like a lifelong love of might become a coyote researcher. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we had why did this happen? We had Barry Kay
Speaker 1: Gilbert and he came. He emailed me the other day.
Speaker 1: By the way, Phil, oh, yeah, email me to tell
Speaker 1: me why the North American model of wildlife conservation still
Speaker 1: on it, by the way, shout out to Barry Gilbert.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean this all like weirdly ties together, right,
Speaker 1: like the whole peda thing the way they see like this,
Speaker 1: this is kind of an animal rights angle on why
Speaker 1: you shouldn't should put an animal in captivity to save
Speaker 1: it and here and the other one is kind of
Speaker 1: the opposite, let's release this thing that's in captivity. So
Speaker 1: it's just a weird juxtaposition. I find maybe I'm making
Speaker 1: a connection that isn't there, but it's certainly interesting. Uh, Cows,
Speaker 1: we can review what episode was that that? You can
Speaker 1: listen to Cow's full take forty forty. It's it's very difficult.
Speaker 1: The most recent one as of this recording. All right,
Speaker 1: giveaway number thre you gonna you get that sound effect
Speaker 1: number three? This one you're gonna win. Here's what you're
Speaker 1: gonna win, Joe, I'm gonna win it. No, you're not

Speaker 1: a bar. I don't care. Yeah, yeah, as long as

Speaker 1: guess I'll just do this on the flat. That's fine. Well,
Speaker 1: I like to surprise you with this ship. Thanks, okay, Phil,
Speaker 1: rip it out. You're gonna read so pretty long one, right,
Speaker 1: You're gonna read it. It is pretty long. Skip over
Speaker 1: the parts that aren't good. I don't know what's good
Speaker 1: and what's not, so read it and then you're gonna
Speaker 1: give your opinion and then we'll all try to help
Speaker 1: you out. Okaybody, hello Fillium already off to get start
Speaker 1: this year. Yep, that's how they addressed the email. P
Speaker 1: I P H I Okay continue this year. On the
Speaker 1: last morning of rifle season in Nebraska, I was out
Speaker 1: driving one of my fiance's Thanks for the advice, Ben Pastors.
Speaker 1: Just looking around to preface this, I should say that
Speaker 1: the day prior. Wait wait wait, wait back up. Ye
Speaker 1: thanks for the advice, Ben, That's what he said. This
Speaker 1: is theming around pastures. This dude sent me a message
Speaker 1: and asked me what he should do to propose to
Speaker 1: his girlfriend. I get this is the same closing a loop.
Speaker 1: This is Luke Reeves. I should have said that, good job, Luke.
Speaker 1: I gave Luke a fool of like, this is exactly
Speaker 1: what you should do. I don't know if he did
Speaker 1: exactly what I said. I don't remember what I said,
Speaker 1: but I'm feeling important. You played a big role. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm gonna tell us now. The advice game
Speaker 1: to to ask is he doesn't remember I don't remember.
Speaker 1: I mean one of these candy bars, like I don't
Speaker 1: even remember what it was, but it was like be
Speaker 1: strong and be true, look her in the eye, wear
Speaker 1: pants something like that. He did it. So he's stuk
Speaker 1: because now she's his fiancee and her family obviously has
Speaker 1: some land because he's driving across one of her back
Speaker 1: brought him my advice, like you gotta win or my
Speaker 1: dad always said that to me, marry girls hunting ground.
Speaker 1: I didn't do it. I married a beautiful woman. Go ahead,
Speaker 1: Sorry to interrupt your first second, that's fine. I thought
Speaker 1: that was important info. To preface this, I should say
Speaker 1: that the day prior, we had put fence up around
Speaker 1: the whole section because we were about to move the
Speaker 1: majority of their cattle onto stocks already lost. Being somewhat
Speaker 1: educated in the way dear work in this area, I
Speaker 1: realized there was no chance I was going to see anything,
Speaker 1: be it a deer or any other wildlife. But I
Speaker 1: do enjoy just shitting, just sitting and looking at pretty country.
Speaker 1: After about twenty minutes of sitting in my truck, I
Speaker 1: noticed a four by four driving across the section adjacent
Speaker 1: to ours. When it got to the fence. Someone who
Speaker 1: I can best describe as a shorter, less funny Joe Pesci,
Speaker 1: stopped and asked me if he could help me. This
Speaker 1: confused me for two reasons. I was clearly not in
Speaker 1: any distress, simply sitting in my truck listening to remy
Speaker 1: talk about almost getting stepped on by an elk shout
Speaker 1: out to cutting the distance. The second reason being this
Speaker 1: was our land, land that had been in my fiance's
Speaker 1: family for many years. The angry man then proceeds to
Speaker 1: berate me for driving through my field because he is
Speaker 1: sitting in a raised house. He calls a deer blind
Speaker 1: and scared all the deer that weren't there anyway. After
Speaker 1: a few minutes of letting Tyrian Well yell at me
Speaker 1: a short, short man, I decided the best course of
Speaker 1: action was to step out of my truck and talked
Speaker 1: to him face to face. Now, I'm by no means
Speaker 1: an imposing figure. I stand about six three and maybe
Speaker 1: way two if my hair is wet. Okay, So I
Speaker 1: had no thoughts of intimidation. I just feel it's harder
Speaker 1: to be a dick to someone if you're talking to
Speaker 1: them face to face. After doing my best to defuse
Speaker 1: the situation, reminding him that I was in fact on
Speaker 1: my own property. I felt we parted amicably. I even
Speaker 1: gave him a nice five point shout i'd found and
Speaker 1: had sitting in the bed in my truck, since at
Speaker 1: some point during the conversation he had mentioned he had
Speaker 1: a son. Now to my conundrum, how many seasons do
Speaker 1: I wait before I start lighting off our artillery shells
Speaker 1: around the clock every day during rifle season on that section,
Speaker 1: I'm a fairly average bow hunter, and I also muzzle load,
Speaker 1: so missing the nine day ship show that is Nebraska
Speaker 1: rifle season wouldn't bother me one bit. Should I give
Speaker 1: him a show opening morning next year? Should I wait
Speaker 1: and Lullham into a false sense of security before coming
Speaker 1: on real strong? U two or three years? Normally I
Speaker 1: would say this being petty is beneath me, But seeing
Speaker 1: as that far beneath me is about eye level for him, Man,
Speaker 1: this guy is just full of jokes, I thought I'd
Speaker 1: give the give it the old college try. It should
Speaker 1: also be noted that Bilbo, Okay, we're stretching it far,
Speaker 1: has gotten into some kind of altercation with everyone that
Speaker 1: lives within a ten mile radius of his little hobbit hole,
Speaker 1: from middle schoolers jogging on the gravel road in front
Speaker 1: of his house, to an elderly woman who stopped to
Speaker 1: photograph an eagle not lot van that happened to be
Speaker 1: in a tree near his home. I feel Dalton, I'm
Speaker 1: missing that one. What's that reference roadhouse? Looking up, Joe Dalton.
Speaker 1: I feel Dalton addressed these types of situations quite well.
Speaker 1: Oh wait, hold on this, Patrick Swayze is not being
Speaker 1: nice until it's time to not be nice. I wanted
Speaker 1: to ask you two as Ben did give me some
Speaker 1: solid advice on popping the question and Phil's instant story
Speaker 1: shaving his mustache to evidences to evan essence with some
Speaker 1: serious high level comedy gold Thanks again for everything you
Speaker 1: guys do for Hunters, and keep the great podcast coming.
Speaker 1: That is the email seerlely Luke. There's a lot to
Speaker 1: go over there. I feel like you got your retribution there.
Speaker 1: You just got that Red Red Live. You got your
Speaker 1: email Red Live about Bill Listen. That made me laugh.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry that we're letting the objective failed. But first Phil,
Speaker 1: make sure can you summarize like what his questions? I
Speaker 1: mean it was it was. It was a great it
Speaker 1: was very well written. Thank you, Luke. Um. This guy
Speaker 1: was a dick to him. Yeah, he went out of
Speaker 1: his way to be nice to this guy who's been
Speaker 1: historically a short man, historically a dick to every one
Speaker 1: of the people are in the community, in the community
Speaker 1: known for his dickishness. He's asking you, should he be
Speaker 1: a dick back. He's asking for your permission, Phil, your
Speaker 1: exalted status within our hunting community as a non hunter
Speaker 1: with opinions. He's asking Phil for your permission to be
Speaker 1: a dick on purpose in the future. To the short person,
Speaker 1: short man to Bilbo, do you consent? I would say
Speaker 1: not not yet. I'd say if there was another altercation,
Speaker 1: then I think that quote be nice until it's time
Speaker 1: to not be nice. I don't think it's time to
Speaker 1: not be nice yet. I feel Um that's where I
Speaker 1: am right now. Okay, do you would you tell him
Speaker 1: to go out of his way to be nice or
Speaker 1: just not be mean? Oh, just not not be mean.
Speaker 1: You already gave him the shed, right, that was a
Speaker 1: nice gesture. Maybe he could turn this very short, very
Speaker 1: mean man into a kind and gentle soul through his manevolence, benevolence, no, no, nothing,
Speaker 1: that's your official, that's my official. Dr Phil. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean maybe it's the Maybe it's a boring centrist point
Speaker 1: of view. I don't think you should go out of
Speaker 1: your way to be a dick, But else I don't
Speaker 1: think you should go out of your way to I
Speaker 1: don't know that's what you can look forward to. And
Speaker 1: Dr Phil Medicine Woman's segments in the future, boring centrist.
Speaker 1: If we had tackled the email that you gave me yesterday,
Speaker 1: I would have been on fire next time, next time.
Speaker 1: And Dr Phil medicine woman kave you know what it
Speaker 1: is just striking me? Is real confusing? Is this whole
Speaker 1: show why Medicine Woman? Was she not a doctor or
Speaker 1: not a well doctor? Dr Quinn is just you know,
Speaker 1: one syllable name got Dr Phil? Oh, yeah it was
Speaker 1: doctor quin was run medicine. This is Dr Phil like
Speaker 1: the like the fake TV doctor, but then also a
Speaker 1: medicine woman like me woman like another accreditation like it
Speaker 1: took me seven years to get my doctorate and then
Speaker 1: that show took place. I don't know my medicine woman
Speaker 1: standing medicine woman degree. That's a lifetime, because you're never
Speaker 1: not a medicine woman after that, that's true. They could
Speaker 1: strip Can they strip away your doctorate? Probably? They probably can't. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, thanks Phil. Congratulations to our emailer there on
Speaker 1: his his pending nuptials. And I'm sure my advice. Maybe
Speaker 1: he should write back in and tell me what the
Speaker 1: advice that I gave you was, because I'm sure it
Speaker 1: was good people who go out of their way to
Speaker 1: be discourteous to people that they share fence lines with.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you got a good story. Why what
Speaker 1: you must have so much extra time and energy to
Speaker 1: willingly just rub your neighbors the wrong way? I just
Speaker 1: there's no way to live as not anything I'm gonna understand. Ever.
Speaker 1: Did you have you ever told your goose hunting stories
Speaker 1: from this year on the show podcast show? Yeah? Kind
Speaker 1: of yeah. I think I kind of explained that a
Speaker 1: way that basically, um, yeah, I don't know who's We'll
Speaker 1: just let everybody decide whose side they would take. So
Speaker 1: we went out set up a bunch of decoys in
Speaker 1: my mom's field. It's only ninety acres, not a lot
Speaker 1: of land at all, um, but lots and lots of
Speaker 1: geese for Montana standards. Yeah, for Montana standards for sure,
Speaker 1: um for And this is just like this really goofy situation, right,
Speaker 1: but like the way things go sometimes. So there's little
Speaker 1: chunker ground, but there's tons and tons of geese that
Speaker 1: come off the Yellowstone River and we're set up. And
Speaker 1: then I see this guy walking the fence line and
Speaker 1: I know that there's no cover on the other side
Speaker 1: of the fence line. I've never seen anybody walk the
Speaker 1: fence line, um, because there was a potential. I was like, well,
Speaker 1: maybe he's trying to shoot pheasants, but that'd be weird
Speaker 1: because all the all the cover really is on my
Speaker 1: mom's side of the place. Uh. And the whole place
Speaker 1: is sheep fenced, so when you know, it's not three
Speaker 1: strand barbed wire. Um. And eventually the guy kind of
Speaker 1: waves me over and he's like, yeah, so I was
Speaker 1: set up here. I think I got here before you did.
Speaker 1: And he's got like a blind built up on the
Speaker 1: neighbor's property and uh, He's like, yeah, I'm really set
Speaker 1: up for ducks. And it's kind of a weird thing
Speaker 1: because where the ducks go is into the ditch on
Speaker 1: my mom's place, and I was like, oh, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a good spot for ducks, but would be tricky
Speaker 1: to do this legally because the best shooting you'd have
Speaker 1: to be very choosy with your shot opportunities in order
Speaker 1: to shoot birds and have them land on the property
Speaker 1: that you have permission on, And you know, it's kind
Speaker 1: of like this. I'm like, oh, well, listen, it's really
Speaker 1: not a big deal. As long as you shoot birds
Speaker 1: that decoy into your decoys, and we shoot birds a
Speaker 1: decoy into our decoys. If you stick to that, you
Speaker 1: can hunt back to back in theory, like literally touching
Speaker 1: back to back if your butts around the property line. Well,
Speaker 1: the geese there's a pretty good headwind, which is very
Speaker 1: helpful for decoy and geese, and the geese are swinging
Speaker 1: over the neighbor's property to get into the flight pattern
Speaker 1: to come into the decoys. And then once they hit
Speaker 1: this guy's blind, he shoots birds and one landed in
Speaker 1: our field. Um, which of course I was like, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I go go get it. But uh, that that was
Speaker 1: like the whole game plan. Well, geez, what I typically
Speaker 1: do is sit on the fence line and shoot birds,
Speaker 1: and my dog, go get him in your guy's place.
Speaker 1: And and there's like, no, no conceivable way he's not
Speaker 1: shooting one that it's not gonna fall on somebody else's property.
Speaker 1: You'd have to, like I said, you have to be
Speaker 1: very picky. You'd have to be very very picky. You
Speaker 1: have to ignore a lot of shot opportunities because you're
Speaker 1: only gonna be able to like legally retrieve a few
Speaker 1: of them. So um and and yeah, this person uh
Speaker 1: took advantage of the birds decoin into our spread three
Speaker 1: or four times. Three times that morning, I got a
Speaker 1: few birds. At one point I turned to Miles Nualty
Speaker 1: and I was like, well, hey, the good news is
Speaker 1: all he needs is one more bird and he's going
Speaker 1: to be limited out then he can't shoot any more geese.
Speaker 1: So um, yeah, that that wasn't That wasn't great. What
Speaker 1: would you have done in that? Did you go? You
Speaker 1: storm over there filling this in this scenario. I don't
Speaker 1: have that kind of personality because I'm mostly a coward.
Speaker 1: Unless I don't unless I have to channel channel somebody
Speaker 1: from the m c U, like who, I don't know,
Speaker 1: who would you be? Now you I want you to
Speaker 1: tell me the night before, you know, I drove out
Speaker 1: and I've never in my entire life ever seen anybody
Speaker 1: hunting this section of this person's property. There's lots of
Speaker 1: people at hunt or maybe the same people that hunt
Speaker 1: very often on a different section of this guy's property.
Speaker 1: I've never seen anybody hunt this one part um, And
Speaker 1: you know, the night before, you know, I took a
Speaker 1: look at that section of the field, um, mainly to
Speaker 1: see what's going on, but also do just kind of
Speaker 1: take stock who's hunting around there, And there was nobody there.
Speaker 1: And then you know, you're setting up decoys in the
Speaker 1: middle of the night, and you know, I didn't see
Speaker 1: anybody setting up decoys on and that dude didn't see
Speaker 1: us setting up decoys. So out of the four birds
Speaker 1: that he killed, three of them landed on his side
Speaker 1: of the fence. So he shot three birds and out
Speaker 1: and two out of the three did land on his
Speaker 1: side of the fence. So he was mostly doing everything right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but he wasn't shooting birds that were decoying into his decoys, right. Well,
Speaker 1: did he make like a gentleman's agreement with you? Did
Speaker 1: you do that? You did? Yeah? You feel like just
Speaker 1: from meeting him for ten minutes. Was he assute enough
Speaker 1: to know the difference? Yes? Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I
Speaker 1: think it was just like this is what I always do,
Speaker 1: and I came out here and this is my day
Speaker 1: to do it. And did you stand up halfway through
Speaker 1: and give him the scarecrow? No? No, I was just like,
Speaker 1: that's the man's decision. I think you've been worthy of
Speaker 1: at least a scarecrow. Yeah, at least, Like, come on, man,
Speaker 1: I mean there's no point, right, Yeah, No, I'm I'm
Speaker 1: I'm mostly with cal I'm nine of the time being
Speaker 1: like antagonistic back to someone who's like mildly being antagonistic
Speaker 1: to you. It's not. It only escalates the situation to
Speaker 1: some sort of like stupid like I don't know, dick
Speaker 1: and dick showing contest or something whatever, showing contests. What's
Speaker 1: that term content measuring? No, I just like it's like
Speaker 1: a show when if we don't measure them kind of
Speaker 1: dick dick showing here's my dick, where's yours? No, it's
Speaker 1: the measuring that dick measuring. That's that's the term I
Speaker 1: was looking for. Yeah, good ones, but also, don't go
Speaker 1: out of your way to like make him some cinnamon rolls,
Speaker 1: like you know, yeah, all right, we're gonna So here's
Speaker 1: the other fun part of that is my Stepdad's like, well,
Speaker 1: how to go, how to go? I'm like, oh, you
Speaker 1: know what, it worked out fine for us. We did
Speaker 1: get a couple of birds once that guy packed up
Speaker 1: and left. Um, and then I was like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: well here's this kind of annoying thing. We would have
Speaker 1: had more birds. And and my stepdad is the type
Speaker 1: of dude who would let anybody hunt anybody, and nobody
Speaker 1: in the history of the place has ever knocked on
Speaker 1: the freaking door to hunt. UM. And I tell him
Speaker 1: this story, and he's like, well, I'm gonna go out
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna paint every fence post orange. It's like,
Speaker 1: that's that's a bunch of crap. Had that guy just called,
Speaker 1: I would have said, hey, don't hunt today, and then
Speaker 1: you can hunt every other day that Ryan's not here,
Speaker 1: which is the majority of the days of the hunting season.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, don't do that. Like, I you know,
Speaker 1: small chunk of ground, it's you know, it's fun to have,
Speaker 1: it's not not anything to ruffle any feathers over. And
Speaker 1: I go back out there for two years to hunt
Speaker 1: geese again, and all the fence posts are painted and
Speaker 1: the like, and never what is that he's ever knocked
Speaker 1: on the damn door and asked, asked to hunh you know.
Speaker 1: And it's just like one story. And now for sure,
Speaker 1: nobody's ever gonna ask why what does that mean? The
Speaker 1: orange fence posts, it just just says no hunting. It
Speaker 1: just means like stay. Yeah, in the state of Montana,
Speaker 1: you don't have to you don't have to mark property
Speaker 1: that you have to assume it's no hunting. It's an
Speaker 1: asked permission first state. But if now you're thinking, if
Speaker 1: people see orange fence posts, they're gonna not even ask permission. Yeah, huh.
Speaker 1: It's interesting. Usually when people do that, they're very adamant
Speaker 1: about not having people on their property. I didn't know
Speaker 1: that's the that's the way the assumption has gone. I
Speaker 1: didn't know about orange fence posts. I've seen it, but
Speaker 1: I never I've never seen it like in an open
Speaker 1: field like that, because I think that's a clear message
Speaker 1: that like something went down, so I need to tell
Speaker 1: you what's up. Oh, it's funny too, because it's only
Speaker 1: on one side it's like on that that's a clear
Speaker 1: message like, hey, just this side's an issue. I don't
Speaker 1: think about this one. But it was great because my
Speaker 1: my stepdad's solution was like, well, gosh, I would have
Speaker 1: had I known, I would have called the neighboring landowner said, hey,
Speaker 1: asked this person not to hunt this day, and then
Speaker 1: they can just hunt on our place. The rest of
Speaker 1: the time. That was like the neighbor lease solution prior
Speaker 1: to this situation. Now I was like, well, now nobody's
Speaker 1: ever gonna be able to hunt her. It's just like,
Speaker 1: that's not what It just takes one, right, Phil. That's
Speaker 1: why your segment is going to be so important to
Speaker 1: the hunting community. Yeah, it's gonna change the game. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, Well before Ago, I thought the thing that
Speaker 1: was gonna come up before he got into his little
Speaker 1: altar or what to do after his altercation, was love.
Speaker 1: How when people roll up when there's a problem, the
Speaker 1: way that they get into it is by asking the
Speaker 1: question can I help you? Yeah? Are you stuck? Like
Speaker 1: the most passive aggressive way to start a conversation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Well so I'm in this spot in Idaho that is
Speaker 1: a giant drainage, and this guy rolls up and he says, hey,
Speaker 1: where are you Where are you hunting? And you know,
Speaker 1: I was parked in a spot where it is very obvious, like, well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna walk right up this ridge, the ridge at
Speaker 1: which my vehicle was parked at the base of, and
Speaker 1: just go up there and sit for the rest of
Speaker 1: the night. He goes, oh, well, you know that's where
Speaker 1: I was going to send my son tonight. And it's
Speaker 1: this huge drainage and I'm like, well, maybe I'll see
Speaker 1: him up there, right, you know. And it was just
Speaker 1: he's gonna definitely see me up there if he goes right.
Speaker 1: I'm like, say, you're sticking with that plan. I didn't
Speaker 1: say anything else, you know. I mean, it's it was
Speaker 1: after work, right, so it's not a lot of daylight left.
Speaker 1: It's like, well, this this my plan. Thank you for asking.
Speaker 1: It's like, well, I'm not saying my kid up there too, especially,
Speaker 1: and stuff like that for me. If I see I'm
Speaker 1: I'm a passive that way, Like if I see somebody
Speaker 1: in a place I was going, I'll just avoid him
Speaker 1: and go somewhere else, especially in the West where I
Speaker 1: feel like there's millions of acres sitting around. I can
Speaker 1: get back in my truck, go somewhere else if I
Speaker 1: need to, Like, I just don't feel the need to
Speaker 1: press on other people's good time. I just maybe later
Speaker 1: my life I will if I've developed all this intellectual
Speaker 1: property that I'm defensing. I like to size up the
Speaker 1: other hunter and then think how how fast will his
Speaker 1: legs carry him or her up that ridge? Because if
Speaker 1: I'm the head and I get there first, I get
Speaker 1: to sit on that point. No kidding, I'm kidding. That's
Speaker 1: why he's out there. Only one time was I in
Speaker 1: a foot race, and we did end up killing elk
Speaker 1: shortly thereafter, but we were we were a solid, you know,
Speaker 1: quite a few minutes ahead, and we just saw the
Speaker 1: head lamp coming and we didn't stop. We kept on pushing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we gotta make like just have fun with that part
Speaker 1: of it, Like that's a nice competition, Like get up
Speaker 1: the hill, get on and get it done. A little pressure.
