Mercedes Benz Baton Rouge Studio. It's off the Bench, all.
Speaker 3: Right, welcome back, and it is OTB here on this
Monday morning. It is always our pleasure to catch up
with our next guest. It is a Baseball Hall of Famer,
Atlanta brave legend, good friend.
Speaker 4: Chipper Jones joins the show.
Speaker 2: Chip.
Speaker 4: What's going on, man? How you doing this morning?
Speaker 2: Hellos? How we doing doing?
Speaker 3: Fantastic man? Hope hopefully you're doing well there. How's everything?
I mean right kind of and smack dab in the
middle of baseball season, so I know you're still going
out to games. Hopefully everything's going well your way?
Speaker 2: Yeah, placing these boys around and seven of them I
got to keep track of. Got a couple at Auburn,
got uh, got one coach and got a couple you know,
still still playing the game a little bit here right
at the beginning of the summer. But hopefully that's about
the end and we can get a little lake and
beach time.
Speaker 3: Man, Hey, I didn't know, like I didn't know you
had a couple, uh at Auburn there, because look, I
mean you and I and our friendship started back when
y'all were playing the Padres. I was playing for the
Chargers and I had on my L s U colors
and obviously you know you were rooting for the Gators.
You gave me a hard time, which any good SEC
fans should I did. I didn't know that. I mean,
you cross the picket lines and you got some at Auburn.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I go, they got to go where
they're accepted.
Speaker 5: You know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I'm not hating on anybody that'll take those two.
Speaker 5: And try and educate them a little bit.
Speaker 2: So uh, they're they're not playing any sports there and
right brat life and chasing chasing some girls round. So
it's uh, I'm just glad they are pointed in one
direction and and focused on that direction right now.
Speaker 4: Uh, there's no doubt about it.
Speaker 6: Man.
Speaker 3: I was actually thinking about you over the weekend, and
that's why I reached out to you. I was watching
Stetson the Hatters play baseball, and I know obviously you
and your family. You'll have a history with that program.
You've had somen that you know has played for the program.
And man, I was rooting hard form Chip. I thought
they were going to find a way that a hell
of a baseball season forty one twenty two on the year,
they beat some giants and uh, man, they're gritty.
Speaker 4: They're gritty baseball team.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's uh it's always fun to watch them come
regional time. The one thing about Stetson is, you know,
one through nine they can play with anybody. You know,
It's just that that once they get to their second, third,
fourth line pitchers and their bench guys and whatnot, there's
there's kind of a drop off that that bigger Division
one schools don't don't really have. So I mean they
can they you know, Bolster wins against Florida and Miami
and Florida State. They play against all those guys. Actually,
it was funny. The pitching coach for NC State is
a Stetson alum and played for my dad while while
he was at Stetson, So asked them, who's gonna be
rooting for the coach for State? So it was I
have a lot of interest in those games down there,
and they made a good show and beat NC State
the first game, but then Auburn and NC State got them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know you mentioned them being able one
through nine, and you're right, and that's really like college baseball.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 3: Look, it's always you know, baseball is a game where
anybody can lose any given days.
Speaker 4: Certainly we know that.
Speaker 3: But now with the transfer portal, it's not just for
the giants, Like the giants get really good players from
smaller leagues, but also like players that maybe signed with
some of those giants and maybe they didn't get the
playing time that they wanted. A team likes and now
is kind of benefiting from those players coming down to them.
And you're right, like the depth might not be there,
but if you just go one through nine, a team
like Stetson, we saw it all weekend, i mean, four
four seeds one on opening day alone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really kind of fun to watch, you know.
You you look at the Right States and the Eastern Carolina's,
I mean they're they're beating some of the top top
notch teams you know, in college baseball. So it's a
really fun competitive weekend to watch college baseball, you know,
in all of this, and I'm sure you're seeing this
on the college football side as well. You know, you
really feel for the eighteen year old senior coming out
of high school because they don't really want to find
those guys and develop them. They want instant help, like
you said, from some of these smaller colleges, where they
can just get the transfers in, plug them into a
hole that they have a need that they have on
their ball a club, and and.
Speaker 6: Here we go, yeah, and talking about young baseball players.
The I was doing some doing some reading, and I
know you've had done a little bit of coaching, a
little bit of mentoring, but I did read that you
are signed up to be the manager of the an
All Star Futures Game. Is that right?
Speaker 2: Yes? Yeah, sure, for the National League.
Speaker 6: Awesome, I said, can you tell us a little bit
about how that came to be.
Speaker 4: I got to know the strategy.
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, yeah, yeah, are we sending everybody,
We're stealing everybody?
Speaker 4: What are we doing?
Speaker 2: The strategy is pretty simple, stay the hell out of
the way. These kids, they get this one opportunity to
strut their stuff on the probably the biggest stage that
that they've ever played on up until this point, and
I think it's important for us to give them every
opportunity to kind of, you know, struct what they got.
I'm not putting any reins on them if they want
to if they want to steal roll out, you know,
if they want to go, you know, I may, I may.
You know, Marquise Grissom, who's the manager of the American
League team out our teammates, so you know, if it's close,
you know, we got a three to zero count, I
may throw the I may throw the take sign on
somebody or you know whatnot. But uh, for the most part,
we're gonna let these guys. We're gonna let these guys
sling it and run and pitch. And the only the
only constraints that I have as a manager in this
type of situation is the from the pitching side. I
need parameters from each and every organization so that we
don't overwork one of their guys. You know, if the
pitch limit is twenty, they're not throwing twenty one, you know.
So it's it's that's really the only constrictions we have
as managers.
Speaker 4: Oh man, you throw that name out there.
Speaker 3: Grissom going to be on the other side, and Flynn
and I were talking about it beforehand and Neil Superstation
and TB as and I'm sure you get that, you
know those questions a lot because you grew up and
like as a baseball player in everybody's homes as we
were growing up, right, and so many different people, Yeah,
I mean, so many different people got a chance to
see y'alls great Brave teams. I mean, look, a kid
from Louisiana like me became a Braves fan because of TBS.
And that's way before you could get every single game,
you know, across the country on all these different networks there.
Speaker 4: So it's something that.
Speaker 3: Had to be, you know, a pretty cool blessing the
fact that you knew, like every night when nobody else
was playing on national TV, every time y'all went out there,
y'all had the chance to get, you know, be seen
from Montana to Georgia, from New York to Arizona, Like
it didn't matter the Braves were going to be on
the TV.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really something you don't think about when you're playing.
And got it really kind of hit home for me.
I was actually in the supermarket and I'm walking down
the aisle and just probably seventy seventy five year old man.
He comes up on the shoulder and he says, I
just want to thank you. Yeah, And I said, what
I do? You know, like you you were in our home,
whether it was in front of the dining room table,
or in front of the coffee table in the living room,
or on the radio in my truck. You've been a
part of my family for the last twenty twenty five years,
and I just wanted to say thank you for all
the entertainment that you've given us through the years. And
it never really hit me until you could see the
honesty in his eyes. And I was like, dang, you know,
I'm sure that's pretty universal through Braves Country and really
thankful that I got that opportunity. And hey, I was
I was Planned B for the Braves in nineteen ninety
and old Plan B kind of kind of worked out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd say that worked out pretty well. I mean
to the TV yes point, Like I was a professional
football player, right and I played on the West Coast,
and like I was like, man, we get done at
like five. The Braids are East Coast. They're gonna be like,
well until like the second third inning. By the time
I get home, I'm gonna get a chance to get home,
get a little bite to eat. Braids are already on.
It was like utopia, all.
Speaker 6: Right, Tipper, we are here in the kind of sportsman's
paradise down here, So I kind of want to take
it from TBS to a different channel of the sportsman channel.
You've had a long time show, Major League Bohunter. How
involved are you in that still? I know this show
has kind of like grown legs and there's a lot
of people on it. How involved are you that. I
know you said you got a bunch of kids your
chaser right now, so I'm sure that limits the time
that you get to spend on the woods.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I make time for the woods. That's kind of
my uh yeah, that's kind of my Hey, I get
to recharge my bottom kind of kind of opportunity. But yeah,
I started off with the Buck Commander, kind of the
spinoff from Duck Commander, and rolled right into Major League
bow Hunter. I've actually been out of Major League bow
Hunter for the last couple of years, been kind of
helping out with Tyler Jorden down there at Real Tree
Outdoors and Real Tree Road. Trips. So still still got
my foot in the door a little bit, you know,
fifty three years old now, so I don't I don't
cherish climbing twenty five feet up a tree anymore. I
don't cherish a mile in walk to somewhere that I
need to be, so I'm not as serious. But uh yeah,
we still get a little footage done. I got a
crew of about the four or five guys, camera guys
and other guys that I hunt with that we you know,
go all through the Midwest and and try to get
some some pretty big deer footage. So still still pretty active.
And all the kids, all the kids got Bo's man,
they're they're like, I got freaking deer, you know, fake deer,
and targets set up all over my yard, so they're
shooting at everything.
Speaker 6: Here's a real question that Louisiana people want to know.
So you've probably done uh bow hunts all over the
place that that most hunters would dream of. But have
you ever been down to Louisiana in the marshes and
gone both fishing?
Speaker 2: I have not, but I'll tell you how redneck my
wife is. She has been gator hunting in Louisiana and
I have not, so she has actually done the deed,
you know, down there, not with a boat, but I
certainly is something that I always wanted to, but I
just haven't gotten the opportunity. I've been saying I'm gonna
come to Valley and Hester for years, for years and years.
But uh, I was gonna ask you, guys, how about
how that football game go?
Speaker 3: This I've been waiting. I mean, we're twelve minutes in chip.
I mean it didn't go well. Okay, the Gators kept
the Tigers out of the SEC championship game. And look,
it's been so long since you've been able to do this.
I'm just gonna allow it.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm gonna I'm gonna it has been a
very very long I'm gonna take this opportunity to gloat.
Not only that, the national championship basketball team what what?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Run they had licking my wounds a little bit. With
Florida's lost yesterday at Eastern Carolina, but still riding out
high Man wind Natties in one of the one of
the Big three. You got to ride it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's no question about it.
Speaker 3: Actually caught up with Toddy Golden last week down in Destin,
and I don't think that's gonna be the last one
that Florida wins.
Speaker 4: I mean, he is a hell of a basketball coach.
Speaker 3: Young guy too. It was a great player at Saint Mary's.
So yeah, the Gator football program got one on us.
The basketball programs in great hands. But hey, they have
to come to Death Valley this year and again. I
do it every time we talk open invite, I mean
you and the whole crew. Look, I got five kids,
so I know what it means to roll deep. You
can bring the kiddos as well. We'll get you all
set up and ready to go. I mean the door
is open. And also we'll set the Gator hunt up
as well too.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 2: If I bring all of mine and you have all
of yours, we're gonna have to runt out a Motel
six somewhere close, you know, to make sure we got
vets for everybody.
Speaker 6: Cruise ship again.
Speaker 3: Again, I'm telling you, man, we will find a way
to get it all taken care of. You just got
to come down here. And if you come down here, man,
you're going to fall in love with it. And we're
gonna get a little bit of that Gator love out of.
Speaker 6: Fish is about one of the most addictive, most fun
things you can do. It's incredible.
Speaker 2: Hey, I will say this. I want to give a
shout out to the LSU crowd because when they came
to it, so I haven't. I had a full time
nanny and she's from Louisiana and she was like, you
have to go. We have to go to the tailgate
before the or LSU game, I believe for the for
the SEC chamers the year Burrow and all those guys.
And I went down there and I have never had
so much funny. I didn't even go to the game,
you know, I was just I went for and I
had so much fun I met so many cool people
and I was freaking stuffed at the end of at
the end of the day.
Speaker 3: Oh, there's no question about that, man. And I'm looking
forward to SEC football as well. And it is always
funny because you do follow Florida and you follow the
entire SEC.
Speaker 4: But I've actually like seen.
Speaker 3: You have to like defend your Florida fandom because Georgia
fans and I know you got love for Georgia too,
but you being right there in Atlanta, man, I know
you get that all the time, Like, what about Kirby
and the dogs, You can't be loving Florida.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm a huge fan of coach kurb Yeah, he's
like I see him a few times a year and
I'm like, man, you got another five star quarterback coming in.
He's all giggly, you know, he's such a good dude
and he runs such a great program. All of my
buddies here, I'm the only one that's the Florida guy here.
So it's all Georgia all the time. I will say this,
you know I pull for Georgia quite a bit. Yeah,
I think you have to. You know, when you have
roots as deep as I do here in the Atlanta area,
you know you need to pull for Georgia Tech in
Georgia and all the other pro teams here in in
the state and be loyal to him. So when they
place Florida, obviously my roots take my roots takehold. But
you know, golly, Georgia's got a juggernaut here and then
a little bit disappointing last year, but I think they'll
be back.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it is crazy like and you're right
like again, like I was down in Destin with all
the sec coaches and like people are talking about, yeah,
a little disappointing for Georgia. And I was sitting there thinking, man,
what standard that Kirby has built down there that a
college football playoff loss after winning the SEC championship is
a little disappointing.
Speaker 2: Well, and you saw right at the end of Mark
Rick's tenure here in Georgia, you know, ten and ten
and two, eleven two, ten and three wasn't good enough,
you know, And that's why you know, coach Kirby's here now.
He's instilled kind of I mean, I can kind of
relate from the standpoint of us as as Braves fans,
and it didn't matter if we won the division or not.
It only mattered how far we went in the postseason.
And I feel like coach Smart has instilled kind of
spoiled that crowd as well as you know, it doesn't
matter if they win the Eastern Division. It only matters
if they win the SEC Championship and how far they go,
you know after that, which is it's a pretty high standard.
But I kind of like trying to live up to
those high standards.
Speaker 3: Yeap, no question about it, all right, Chipper, you're the
man we always appreciate the time. Again y'all hit him
up on social media, shame him in to actually coming
to Death Valley. We've been talking about this for like
a decade. Now he's got to come. He's got to
experience Death Valley. You know, Florida is probably gonna be
a night game. And so, Chipper, we're going to get
you here. This year is the year we're gonna make
it happen. I'll take care of everything.
Speaker 2: You just let me know, fellas enjoyed it. You'll be good.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, you as well.
Speaker 3: Baseball Hall of Famer Chipper Jones good enough to join
us here on O T bye.
Speaker 4: I don't want my kids to go to Auburn. No,
that's that's not an option.
Speaker 3: I mean there's worse options. There's worse options. There's worse Yeah,
I could, I could. I don't want to speak. My
kids are only nine, not even which one.
Speaker 7: Do you think would betray you of your five kids?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 6: Honey, I mean it makes a good point. You gotta
go where they get in. You know, you got to
go where they get in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Hodey would take the highest bidder or
you know, whatever situation.
Speaker 6: But Florida. They're not going to Florida.
Speaker 3: Sorry, Oh no, no, if there's three, if there's three
that they absolutely cannot go to A and M Florida.
I want to be sure I say this. I want
to be careful here. I only got one more. You
would think Alabama, but my kids wouldn't even think about
that anyway. Clemson, Ohmson, can't go to Clemson.
Speaker 6: There's a good ones can't go to.
Speaker 3: Clemson, Clemson, Florida. A and M can't do it, won't
do it. Huh what's your third? I mean the chalk
answer is going to be Bama. But yeah, I don't
think they would do that either. No, they wouldn't even
like entertain that. Yeah, and my kids here sweet Home
Alabama on the radio, they're like.
Speaker 4: Next next skip about Oh no, not missing? I mean
I want to go there. I'd much rather than go
to Mississippi State.
Speaker 6: Would you miss much?
Speaker 4: Rather?
Speaker 3: Not even remotely close, not even a conversation. I just
don't want to go.
Speaker 4: I did not raise a Brad or a Chad. They're
not going there. And again, if you are a Brad
ar Chad, that's great, that's who you are.
Speaker 6: You should go.
Speaker 3: You should go there and you can thrive. I'm not
saying you can't, but that's just not who I raised. No, no, no, no,
like they you know, they've you know, I'll leave it
at that. I'll leave it that before I get too
deep here, because I have some great friends, you know,
old miss fans and people shout out Bunky love.
Speaker 6: A lot of brads love mini Chads.
Speaker 7: I don't know Brad or Chad.
Speaker 6: Flynn's big in the Brad chattyre.

big in ever, you know, yeah.
Speaker 6: Place man of the people. You got to be a
man of the people.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you didn't give us your three though, you said Florida.
Speaker 6: Well, so I started saying it. Then I was like,
wait a minute. Probably a lot of these teams are
my clients in my eyes, so maybe I gotta not
say anything.
Speaker 3: Conflict adventure school my high schools Mississippi States had football coach,
Come on, no.
Speaker 6: You can't do this. It starts with an e damn.

don't think I would have loved baseball like I did
if that wasn't a thing.
Speaker 4: But because like it became.
Speaker 3: You go to school, you come back, you grab your snack,
You go to football practice at like five, and you
get back at seven and boom, the Braids were on
and you sat down and you kind of ate dinner
with the Atlanta Braids or the Cubs, depending on you know,
WGN or TVs. But for me, at our house, like
we watched the Braids while we were breaking bread together
as a family, and it became like part of who
we were.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 9: One of my best friend's parents I used to go
over this hash all the time. And this was before
like working from home was even like known of they
were work from home because they loved watching the Cubs
on WGN so much that they couldn't.
Speaker 8: Leave the house.
Speaker 3: That was that Hunt Palmer's parents.
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, it was. I'll just never forget that kind
of like, I mean kind of like and I was gonna.
Speaker 9: Bring this up since I got both y'all here, kind
of like I'm never like when I think of YouTube,
guys always go back to LSU Versus Florida two thousand
and seven. And this was like before social media took
over souls.
Speaker 5: You know, we had Facebook maybe, but.
Speaker 9: Anyway, I was fifteen, uh, and that was one of
the first days I have a disrespect in my body,
you know, just.
Speaker 5: In and long. It was such a memorable day.
Speaker 9: It was the atmosphere was contagious. It was like the
most classic like L s U Death Valley Fields you
can ever feel, tea Bag te Bow was in full
of fact that day.
Speaker 5: I'll never forget it.
Speaker 9: I sat next to two floor the lady fans who
in love with each other. And this is like before
like we were even talking about.
Speaker 8: Like lesbians and stuff.
Speaker 9: You know what I'm saying, Like the first time I
ever met one. You know what I'm saying, all in
one day, just extremely memorable day.
Speaker 6: Taylor. Is this the picture from the from that game? Yeah?
Speaker 4: So sent Oh this is incredible.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 3: Hey, what's the Hey, what's the end scene on those shorts?
Speaker 4: Here we go?
Speaker 5: So so I had black and moths.
Speaker 9: I had dip and cigarettes all in one pocket.
Speaker 5: You can see it, it's on the stick.
Speaker 4: Well, I held those cargo pants I got. Shorts are
so deep you could have put like three forties in
there as well.
Speaker 6: The two thousands were a weird time for fashion, man.
I think I had those exact same shorts.
Speaker 3: Were those the ones that unzipped like you could add
a pant leg as well, and they unzipped and you
could take the pant leg off.
Speaker 4: Probably, no, no, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 5: Yet?
Speaker 6: Those those are old Navies for sure. Yeah.
Speaker 9: That was either old Navy of Abercrombie and Pitched. I
think I bought those at Abercron when I bought the
kiss Me on.
Speaker 8: My Irish shirt.
Speaker 4: Jake kissing Irish.
Speaker 6: Jake's from Streetport evangel he knows, he knows every piece
of clothing at a.
Speaker 3: We had me, we had the whole store, like just
figured out. It was so damn dark in there. You
had to have it figured out because you had to
find your way to what it was.
Speaker 4: But no, we had it.
Speaker 6: Uh did you have rewards card?
Speaker 4: I don't know. I didn't pay for it. I was
boring on a budget. But no, I'm sure like my
mom did.
Speaker 9: They didn't even offer it. They didn't even offer it
to me and my family. We just didn't look good enough,
you know what I'm saying, Like, yeah, that at.
Speaker 5: Least a four pack.
Speaker 6: Dude.
Speaker 3: We we were talking about the Buckle the other day
and how aggressive the people that try to get you
to buy something, and like you can't just go in
there and like look around. There's no looking around in
the Buckle because as soon as you walk in there,
like you you got flies on you, just trying to
get you to purchase something. And it's like, look, I'm
all caught up on my affliction shirts. I don't need
another one, right, But the Buckle is the most aggressive
place in America try to go shopping at.
Speaker 9: Dude, shout out of flicking man really had like I
don't know what the percent was, but like at least
i'd say thirty percent of the planet thinking that they
could tap everybody out of just by wearing the shirts.
It was incredible, bro, Like so many people would try
and come warriers and stuff like when they were wearing
that shirt like it.
Speaker 6: Was it was probably that shirt was probably responsible for
many people. You didn't knock the f out, no doubt.
Speaker 8: Yeah what was that YouTube video?
Speaker 5: What did he say?
Speaker 9: Like giga bombs and uh, I can't remember that. Like
those dudes were like you know, they were like the
afflict afflicts and representatives right then, it's.
Speaker 4: Like we grew up. He had no fear shirts. You
know you had you had those.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, there was like a couple of different times
that we can point to the shirt where like Tommy
tough guy is gonna wear that shirt right and he's
gonna affliction.
Speaker 4: It's gonna be tap out.
Speaker 3: Like for me, it's like if a guy had a
tap out shirts like check the ears, no cauliflower ear.
Speaker 4: We're good, We're good, we can roll cauliflower. Wear the
TapouT shirt. You gotta be careful.
Speaker 9: And anybody wearing the tap out shirt was probably their
drink of choice was four locos.
Speaker 6: Usually on four locos the original formula pretty good.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, but you could have a drink four you know.
Speaker 3: God no, God no, God no dev I think I
probably the answer. I don't think you know exactly where
you're going to go for RB and R day today.
Speaker 4: But do we have a general area?
Speaker 3: Because we talked about this a couple of weeks ago,
it's gonna be tough, like can you always like look,
you put them out every single week and they're always fantastic.
Speaker 4: I watch every single bit.
Speaker 3: The aquarium was like tier one, but so we shall
Met too, Like going over to shall Met was also
tier one. So I mean the bar has really been
incredibly high. So do we have a general area of
where we're going this week?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 9: I don't, but it's only because I've been up since
five am trying to get ready, you know, to follow
up Chipa Jones, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8: So I haven't really thought about it.
Speaker 9: But the cool thing about the Internet is is they
don't remember anything. So if I went to a place
on Alby and all day you know fifty, they may
not remember it. You know what I'm saying, that's very.
Speaker 5: Go redo it.
Speaker 9: Of course, when you do something for so long, you
get better and better at it. Right, I don't so
it's not a bad thing to go back to some places,
Like I think I did that last week with Blue,
you know. I think when I first went to Blue, OK,
it was COVID. You couldn't even go in there. So
I went back, did it the right way and it
turned out good.
Speaker 5: But no, I don't know.
Speaker 9: But I'm always open to recommendations. So if y'all ever
got recommendations, I know eventually I'm just gonna have to
sell traveling every week.
Speaker 3: I know you went up to Shrevepord not I mean
like a year ago something like that, maybe even a
little bit longer. But you're gonna have to start probably
hitting every corner. See I I was talking to some
folks yesterday and I don't see you're gonna you're gonna
hate me for this time we haven't met.
Speaker 6: I feel like we're brothers, but you're not. This isn't
a good start. I don't like Red beans.
Speaker 4: Hey, he's from Tech.
Speaker 6: I know, I wish I did. I just don't, you know,
doesn't like Red. Somebody felt the need to tell me
that the best redbans the Rights and Batnaries is actually
at a really kind of a strange location, the cafe
at Bataries uh Orthopedic Center.
Speaker 4: Really, that's wow, that's.
Speaker 6: What I've heard.
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, I think yeahout to say, dev I think
we need to make that happen that now. I know
that you're like me and you want to throw this
SB off the set because he doesn't.
Speaker 4: Like red beans. But I'll allow it because he's from
Texas and.
Speaker 6: So I can honestly say I wish I did.
Speaker 4: All right, Okay, I mean it still doesn't help it.
Speaker 6: Okay, respect, I respect the game, Respect the game.
Speaker 5: Okay, Yeah, it's all good. And miscona don't like him either.
Speaker 9: I don't hold nothing against you all for that, you know,
but maybe one day y'all start practicing tradition. I don't know,
what is it that you don't like about red like.
Speaker 6: Just a taste, just the bean part, beans zero beans.
I just I started telling people that I'm allergic to it,
just like.
Speaker 4: Beans, navy beans, no trashh I.
Speaker 9: Do the same thing with Mayo when I'm at the like,
if I get something, I don't tell him, don't put
any mail on it. I tell him, Hey, look, I'm
allergic to this, don't do it. I'm not alert, but
I just you know, they'll put mail on it if
you don't tell him that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and it ended up what's the follow up questions
like what do you mean you don't like beans?
Speaker 4: Just like you did? You named every single bean you
can think of.
Speaker 9: Yeah, but even when you're tell them you alerted to Mayo,
they still want to know more information. They like, I'm like,
hold on.
Speaker 8: Dude, I said, I don't want it.
Speaker 3: I mean that's pretty passionate, Like when you start like
your career and have the following that Dev has and
it's literally hold the Mayo.
Speaker 4: You gotta really hate Mayo.
Speaker 5: Well and Blue Plates one of my sponsors.
Speaker 8: That's what's crazy about all But you know, it just
worked on I mean, it's.
Speaker 3: So like twisted way, like it actually makes a lot
of sense that they would be genius.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 9: Yeah, the world now it's like everything that don't make
sense makes sense.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 6: Do you at this point of what you're doing with
your show, do you still pay for red beans?
Speaker 9: I do, man, because I'm not loud about when I
go to places. So it's filmed on an iPhone, so
you really can't tell what's going on. You can't even
really tell that I'm doing it. And I'm not one
of them people where I go and I'm like, hey,
let me talk to the chef. You know, none of that, right,
So I'm kind of incognito. Now. Granted as it's went
on more people have started to recognize, realize whatever. But yeah, no,
I'm very I'm very low key. I pay for everything,
and uh yeah, I mean it's better than what I've
seen from some people on the internet.
Speaker 5: You know, they like to.
Speaker 8: Charge these places and stuff.
Speaker 9: This is like the main thing that like, if I'm
gonna get money, I get it from sponsors, big companies,
you know, stuff like that. But as far as this,
this is, this is for the people.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 9: We all we all embrace this tradition. Other than Flynn
and Moscona.
Speaker 3: Yes, well, hey, dev one of these weeks, one of
these days, and I don't know because I know your schedule,
We're going to have you in at like nine am
and we are going to like make could call out
to whoever wants to drop off their red beans and
rice from their restaurant. We're gonna sit here and we're going, well,
you and I and the laundry and Taylor Flenn's not included.
We're gonna just enjoy some good red beans and rice.
We can give it like a live review. That's something
I've been thinking about over the last couple of weeks.
And I know, look, I know you're driving obviously like
an hour away, but uh, we gotta make that happen.
Speaker 9: Yeah, no, let's do that.
Speaker 8: That sounds like a genius idea.
Speaker 3: I love it, all right, we'll definitely get that done.
Follow Dev at snow like John on social media at
