How do you know when you're stretched too thin? That’s the question Bama Brown kicks off with in this lively, laugh-out-loud episode of The Bama Brown Experience. Joined by his laid-back co-host, The Big Puma, the duo dives into everything from Cadillac’s jaw-dropping $300,000 electric Celestiq to the subtle (and not-so-subtle) signs that you might be burning the candle at both ends.
- A hilarious breakdown of Cadillac’s ultra-luxury EV and why only 25 have been sold.
- Bama’s take on electric Formula 1: “All the action, but like the sound’s turned off.”
- The top 4 signs you're stretched too thin—featuring real-life examples like putting off an 8-minute paint job for a week.
- A surprisingly heartfelt discussion on diet, fast food habits, and how slowing down your eating can change your life.
- The economics of coffee: Is your daily espresso habit costing you a trip around the world?

Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hey, folks, Bam Brown on the Bama Brown Experience. I
heard podcast Network, thank you. We got thousands of you
listening now, and we really appreciate it. Someday they're gonna
put a little money in advertising this, I think. In
the meantime. You talk about a successful show, The Sports
Cave out of San Antonio with my co host partner producer,
The Big Puma, the Big Cat. How you doing, buddy, Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Doing well, my man. We are fresh off last night's
live stream of the show. But if you missed the
live stream last night, you can always get the audio
version anywhere you get your podcast. Just search for the
Sports Cave with the Biggest Puma.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
You do live on Monday and Wednesday and the other
night's y'all do a great show as well, but it's
live and that's always fun to listen to. I was
you know, Pom and I are both car guys, and
so I thought you'd enjoy hearing about this one. Cadillac
has come out with the I want to make sure
I get the name right, the Celestic. Does that sound right?
(00:59):
It's Luxury Electric Electric. Yeah, yeah, three hundred thousand dollars
now brgin. Yeah. Oh, this was the future right here
is this electric car thing. So far, they've sold two date.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Twenty five, So how many even made to date.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I don't know, and I don't think anybody is asking.
I mean, I'm sure somebody somewhere is asking, but they
ain't buying them because, first of all, you probably something
three hundred thousand, okay. Second of all, it's electric car,
so why not just go get a Tesla if you're
gonna do that, and then you know they're gonna keep
making them. Imagine if you bought this and then you're
trying to get it serviced in the next fifteen years
(01:41):
and the guy goes needs a new battery pack and
a flex capacitor, that's gonna be two hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Good luck with that.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
You'll be trying to trade it in on a Spark,
You'll be he And why didn't Spark? Why didn't they
save that name for their electric car? I just did.
To this date, Chevrolet had the Spark, but they were
gas powered. They weren't the weren't electric.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
It couldn't make a lot of sense.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
I guess maybe people might be scared in my shocky
or something.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
But you know, thinking about it, you know, when Cadillac
enters Formula One, they're going to have a racing team
next year. So maybe once they get in front of
some of those high rolling Formula one people, they might
sell a few more three hundred thousand dollars electric, sell
it to the rich Europeans that actually would pay that
(02:27):
much for what looks to be a station wagon.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
It very well could happen. By the way, all those
same teams have an electric Formula One. If you've never
watched electric Formula one, it is all the action, but
like you've got the sound turned off.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
It's very odd.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
It's very strange, strange to watch. But it's the same
teams because they I don't know if they'll do it anymore,
because you know, nobody's having to build the build electric
cars because people aren't stupid anymore. Anyway, that's my own opinion. Sorry,
great Cars is super Tesla in grubble. Uh this is
(03:05):
how you know, I thought this would help a lot
of people. How do you know when you're stretched to
thin Because they're saying, now, you know it's May to Christmas.
From May to Christmas, you're probably going crazy, working hard,
trying to get caught up and this is how you
know your stretched to thin. There was there was four ways,
(03:27):
and they explained it, and I thought this would help you. Okay,
I got to tell you whom is the most laid
back cat in the horn. He's the big cat. Yeah,
he's the most easy going, most wonderful guy. I've had
for partners, and I've had a lot of them, but
just he's like, Matthew goes that cat's lead back man.
(03:48):
It's like, all right, all right, all right, with a
couple more alrights, because that's about I think.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
I think I learned from the leader.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
For sure. Matthew knows Puma, knows how easygoing he is.
He is the easiest going guy ever.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
So I'm worried nothing on this list is going to
be on my radar.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
I'm worried. I'm worried.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Good for you.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
You know what, then good for you, because that's that's great.
You remember one of my favorite lines. It was it
wasn't even supposed to be funny, but I laughed out
loud at the theater when Bourne Identity. It came on
the movie Born ident in the first one. And so
he's riding in the car with the girl and and
he says. She goes, what amnesia? You got amnesia? And
(04:32):
he goes, I can't remember anything that happened to me
before yesterday, and she goes, good for you. What a
what an awesome line? Man, good for you. You know,
we need to put that line in our movie, our
movie drops. So Puma and I gonna start doing some
movie drops, and their unlicensed, so we'll probably get in
trouble with that, don't I don't care. We're gonna put
(04:53):
him in there because that and that's what I want
to do. Is like, yeah, so this is how you
know you stretch too thin? Uh from just fourth to first? Uh,
no particular order, though, when you have trouble doing just
basic task, like everything seems to be a pain in
the ass, you know, like you gotta go to you know,
(05:13):
I do the trash cans for my rent property in here,
and I get I get busy, and I don't have time.
I'm like, God, I gotta go take those trash cans
back down there. It takes all of ten minutes to do,
but I'm finding myself going, man, I gotta go do this.
I gotta do it. And then I had a job.
What was it? I had to do, and oh, paint
this one little section of a wall where I fixed
(05:34):
the floor and put new molding in. And I've been
putting it off a week. It took me eight minutes
from the time I mask it off. I masked it
off and then opened the paint ord the paint, got
it a little roller and painted it and then unmask
it in eight minutes. And that's what I've been putting
off for one week. And by the way, I knew
(05:55):
it wouldn't take that long. I knew that long it
was gonna take.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
But you had more. You had more pressing priorities on
your list. That's how you know you're stretched thin when
you're putting stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
There was a couple of meetings that had to go
to that I shouldn't even have to go to. But
you know this, this job will never end. I guess
radio jobs what I'm talking about. If you've got number three,
if you've got a short fuse, if you're barking at
people that work or at home, h you kids, if
you got shit, that means you're putting in too much
time on the job, worrying about everything you gotta I
(06:29):
don't know how to organize it. Whatever you gotta do
get away from it. And that takes us uh to
number two when you're not getting to do the things
you love to do. So let him go play golf,
because trust me, when he gets to play golf or
hunt or whatever it is, you're the one that's going
to get the benefit. And you may not get it
at the time, but then when he gets back, he's
(06:52):
going to be in such a better mood. The same
with her. Let her go do whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
The opposite of that is let him let him go
go get.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Their hair done or whatever, you know. And I don't
want to sound sexist doing that. I mean whatever, you
go play tennis, whatever your thing.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Is, whatever the hell it is.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Yeah, go let them go do it. And don't say, oh,
it costs too much or you shouldn't have done that
or whatever is. There's enough guilt in any marriage already
without having or any relationship. Really uh And then fine, finally,
and this one has caught some people, I think off guard.
If your diet has changed dramatically, they say, that is
a huge sign. You're eating just what you can when
(07:32):
you can. That is what they're talking about, where you're
eating a lot of fast food, not there's ing wrong
fast food, but you end up you're eating take out
a lot, or you're eating stuff that's not healthy because
it's a time thing and you don't want to be
doing that. So that's one of those you just need to,
you know, once again, adjust accordingly, set time back. If
you can all sit at the table, phones in a basket,
(07:54):
all the phones go in that basket right there, we're
gonna sit and have dinner tonight. Yeah, that's that.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
That's one of those things that in somewhere along somewhere
in my late twenties, I realize that if I will
just go to the grocery store on Sundays one time
a week, right, I can get I can get the
meals enough, Like it's not going to be a massive
three hour excursion in the ground groceries, half an hour
(08:24):
or less. Get the staples, get the basics, get what
I need for lunch, because, uh, you start start pulling
through fast food every day for lunch, that can that
can sneak up on you pretty quickly, especially when you're
six' four and you got a frame that can put
on weight pretty, Quickly like you.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Can gain a pound a, Day and think about that
within a, month you could be thirty pounds overweight if
you aren't, WATCHING i have to watch. It If i'm
one ninety six right, now so lightest have ever been
since what the fourth grade or. Whatever i'm one ninety
six right, now and that's and that's from. WATCHING i,
mean AND i eat a little. BIT i eat half
or a order half of WHAT i would normally, eat
(09:05):
and just make myself do. It and here was the
thing THAT i, learned and the dietician told me. THIS
i couldn't believe. It slow down when you're. Young if
you eat, slow very, slow you will find yourself full quick.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Quicker the two, things the two things that can change
how you view food instantly that are super easy to.
Do drink a lot of. Water drink a glass of
water before the food gets, THERE a glass of, water
a couple of glasses like drink a lot of water
and slow. Down those are the two best pieces of
(09:39):
Advice i've ever, been ever been told when it comes to,
food and it really you might you might not think
it will change, anything but you will see so quickly
how much of a difference that.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Makes there's a book Called The millionaire Next. Door it's
In pluma's read this. BOOK a lot of people are.
Ready but one of the things he talks about is
if you're ordered two or three eight dollars seven to
eight dollars, coffees up to ten dollars coffees a, day
and you start, thinking you're talking could be as much
as four five hundred dollars a month for.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Coffee, yeah oh, no, look and THAT'S i think there
ARE i think there are certain give and. Takes so
like coffee is one of those things That i'm not
a rich. Man i'm never going to be massively, wealthy
but having a nice espresso every single morning is something
that makes me happy. Enough, okay that's worth the six, dollars,
(10:37):
Right but at that same that same line of, thought you,
know the roommate AND i we go get coffee every.
Morning that's twelve. Bucks that's sixty what's eighty four almost
ninety dollars a month or a, WEEK i mean, week
four weeks in a, month five, weeks that's.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Four hundred dollars on.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Coffee.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Coffee and it's just.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
LIKE i understand if you're if you want to be
the millionaire next, door you shouldn't spend four hundred dollars on.
Coffee but at the same, time there's a few things
in Life i'm willing to pay, for and coffee every
MORNING i THINK i. CAN'T i don't Think i'll ever
be able to give that.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
One you guys in this and, out In puma's, defense
they live very. Tight they live in a very beautiful,
home but it is well. Priced they did, Well they've
been smart about how they did everything and got ahead
of the curve on the. Neighborhood genius on your, part
and so there's a lot of things you can. Do
(11:40):
but that was just when and when you start and he, Goes, okay,
see you're spending four to five hundred dollars a month on,
coffee he, said now multiplied times. Twelve, ye talk about
a smack in the face at the end of the
year when you're Spending are you ready almost eight thousand
dollars on coffee every? Year seven to eight thousand dollars
(12:00):
if you're spending four to five hundred, question, YEAH i
mean you could go anywhere in the friggin world for
seven thousand dollars and stay a few days of. Coffee
if you were to give up coffee, now you would
probably have to spend all the rest of your savings
on attorneys to get you out of jail for killing,
people but.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Possibly correct as as a, man as an individual who
has once thrown his coffee on another car in a
in a donut.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Shop remember, That, YES.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
I could probably stand to cut back a little.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Bit that's that brings me to another. One don't hank
at anybody went over. TRAFFIC i know they deserve. It
it's just you don't know in this day and, age
what kind of nut jobs in front of you or
behind you in a simple wave a, smile even if you.
Wave SOMETIMES i, wonder you, know is just act like
(12:55):
you don't hear. Them and if you ignore. It there's
an old, saying if you ignore, it it'll go, away
and that's sometimes that's pretty. True sometimes it'll hurt, you you,
Know but in that particular, case best. Option anybody gives
you a, finger anybody gives you, anything the best thing
to do is just ignore it and keep. Going and
that makes them. Matter by the, way if they think
(13:16):
you had no, reaction.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
You, Know i'll tell you talk about making them. MATTER
i over the Last we've talked about this. Before I've
i've massively changed the WAY i. Dried NOW i used
to be an aggressive get out of my. Way you're
getting a finger if you don't, move change. Lanes and
in the next three seconds.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
It was it WAS i.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
WAS i was a great, driver AND i was always
in the. Right don't think that it was a little,
aggressor and it could have. Been it could have been
dialed back a little. Bit so now instead of giving
someone the finger anytime in the, past WHEN i would
have shot the finger out there a giant six foot
four middle, Finger NOW i just give a single thumbs,

you know, once again, adjust accordingly, set time back. If
you can all sit at the table, phones in a basket,
(07:54):
all the phones go in that basket right there, we're
gonna sit and have dinner tonight. Yeah, that's that.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
That's one of those things that in somewhere along somewhere
in my late twenties, I realize that if I will
just go to the grocery store on Sundays one time
a week, right, I can get I can get the
meals enough, Like it's not going to be a massive
three hour excursion in the ground groceries, half an hour
(08:24):
or less. Get the staples, get the basics, get what
I need for lunch, because, uh, you start start pulling
through fast food every day for lunch, that can that
can sneak up on you pretty quickly, especially when you're
six' four and you got a frame that can put
on weight pretty, Quickly like you.

since what the fourth grade or. Whatever i'm one ninety
six right, now and that's and that's from. WATCHING i,
mean AND i eat a little. BIT i eat half
or a order half of WHAT i would normally, eat
(09:05):

thing THAT i, learned and the dietician told me. THIS
i couldn't believe. It slow down when you're. Young if
you eat, slow very, slow you will find yourself full quick.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Quicker the two, things the two things that can change
how you view food instantly that are super easy to.
Do drink a lot of. Water drink a glass of
water before the food gets, THERE a glass of, water
a couple of glasses like drink a lot of water
and slow. Down those are the two best pieces of
(09:39):
Advice i've ever, been ever been told when it comes to,
food and it really you might you might not think
it will change, anything but you will see so quickly
how much of a difference that.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Makes there's a book Called The millionaire Next. Door it's
In pluma's read this. BOOK a lot of people are.
Ready but one of the things he talks about is
if you're ordered two or three eight dollars seven to
eight dollars, coffees up to ten dollars coffees a, day
and you start, thinking you're talking could be as much
as four five hundred dollars a month for.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Coffee, yeah oh, no, look and THAT'S i think there
ARE i think there are certain give and. Takes so
like coffee is one of those things That i'm not
a rich. Man i'm never going to be massively, wealthy
but having a nice espresso every single morning is something
that makes me happy. Enough, okay that's worth the six, dollars,
(10:37):

ninety dollars a month or a, WEEK i mean, week

Speaker 2 (11:04):
LIKE i understand if you're if you want to be
the millionaire next, door you shouldn't spend four hundred dollars on.
Coffee but at the same, time there's a few things
in Life i'm willing to pay, for and coffee every
