Speaker 1 (00:03):
Well, hey, and how do you're listen to the Mamma
Brown Experience on the iHeart podcast Network. Several thousand of
you are listening, and we appreciate that. I can't tell
I much. I appreciate that, along with my partner A
lot of times he doesn't want his name tied to this,
but it is the Big Puma in San Antonio, host
of the Sports Cave. It's the greatest sports show out
of this whole Central Texas region because.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
Pig Pum actually played basketball.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
I played college may He actually did the sports that
he's talking about and talks about all sports and he
knows it all and he's just a great guy. How
do they get the Sports Cave there, Big Puma?

Speaker 3 (00:37):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (00:38):
Well, hell with a lead in like that, I'm not
sure I'm paying you enough to talk glowingly about me.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Dollar a holler here, That's what I'm worried.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
Yeah, I'm worried that.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
I'm worried that holler might have been a little too
over the top. That might be worth that might be
worth a three dollar bill. Now, anywhere you get your podcast,
as always, just search for the Sports Cave with Biggest Puma.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
So I saw we're you know, I've been following this
media or now I'm a little bit ahead of schedule
here because it's twenty thirty two is one that's gonna hit.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
They haven't named it yet. It'll be December twenty second,
twenty thirty two. Uh, it's.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
The odds now of it hitting are thirty two to one.
So that's pretty good odds.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
You know. And what is that like three percent?

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Basically yeah, yeah, you're the math guy, You're the one
went to college.

Speaker 4 (01:31):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Well, here's the thing. It's scary. It's about a three
hundred foot wide asteroid. So they say when it does hit,
it'll be five hundred times what Hiroshima was as far
as the blast. So that's that's Uh, that's a spanking, man.
That's a big one. And now they do they are
saying that the US is not.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Even a possible target.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
It's about.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
It's somewhere in Africa or possibly you know, up around
on India somewhere in there. They've got several places. Uh,
maybe Russia. I don't know, it'd be cool if it's Russia.
It wouldn't bother me at all. I mean, they could
do that tomorrow.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
See it seems like Siberia uh tends to get more
of these than than most. And I guess if you're
if it's either Africa or India, I would think you'd
have a better chance of a you know, less catastrophic
event if it smashed into Africa just because of the you.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Know, there's not very many buildings or over you know,
two stories there anyway, and a lot of it, you know,
but then there's a lot of places that I mean,
this could be some serious damage.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Anyway, they they're gonna watch it, They're gonna you know,
and then they got I think they've got Bruce Willis.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
And them online to you know, fly out and hit
it with a duke. You know, I said it.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
I said it the other week.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
How far off really are we from that being a
realistic possibility.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
I mean, like I I'm not jesting.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
They're gonna go get a bunch of you know, offshore
uh you know, oilmen to go up and do it.
I mean, I think we probably have actual Hell, we've
got space force now that could probably handle this. I'll
do it. That unrealistic Well.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
We'll find out and maybe the Aliens will help kill it,
you know, blow it up before it ever gets here
because the UFO's are.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
There's more and more of those stories coming out that
they're that they're real.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Woe is the joke that the reason you don't see
UFOs is because when they fly by Earth they lock
the doors.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Well okay, I hadn't heard that.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
But already, yeah, that's pretty accurate these days, it does.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
Part of me does always wonder.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
If there's uh, you know there there is uh the
same way we you know, uh watch reality television or
watching housewives fighting with each other, throwing wine on each other.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (03:55):
Part of me always wonders if there isn't some alien
civilization out there that just has our planet on on,
flipping through the different regions like.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Oh look, okay, here we go, there we go.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
You know, we got the USA trying to make Canada
the fifty first States.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
I will tell you this is where Pou and I
are different a little bit. I not a day goes
by in the last four years, and I didn't shake
my head ever once a day going who is this
guy or girl or whatever it is in charge of
you know, housing or something for the world or the US,
And you go.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
What that? You know? They shopped.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
The head of something shop. I remember shoplifting bags to
match his dress.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
I remember that one. Yeah, I remember that one. Yeah
that it was wild she was.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
I know I'm country, and I know I'm and I've
lived in Austin thirty seven years, so I've tried to.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Grow and expand my my.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
You know, hey, everybody's just you be you. I've tried
my best to just you be you here. But man,
sometimes you got to stop and go quit being you.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Know, gett Have you ever considered that you? It's just
not a good idea.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
It's just like, have you ever considered any other version
of you?

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Now?

Speaker 4 (05:20):
I think the someone that is uh, you know, extremely
liberal leaning.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yah.

Speaker 3 (05:29):
I you know, I joke all the time, you know,
with my roommate with stuff.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
There is no way I could ever live in Portland, Oregon.
There's no way I could ever live in San Francisco.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
There's no way.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
And look, I support every decision you're making. Be yourself,
do whatever. It's your it's your life, it's your free will,
it's your rights. I don't want them infringed. But there's
no chance in hell I would ever want you as
my neighbor or like want to live in the same
name just.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Never see you ever see that video of that guy
that went and picked up some homeless guys in the
alley behind his house, and he drove them up to
Nancy Pelosi's house and let them out at the front
in front of the wall.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
You know, she has a wall around her.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Was it the guy with the hammer?

Speaker 1 (06:17):
No, No, this was just a This was just a
I mean, I don't know how that guy with the
hammer got in, but I mean literally, there's a prison
wall around it.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
It's in the country. It's obviously beautiful neighborhood with a
big gate.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
And he he told these guys, y'all need to camp
out right here, and they were setting up their tents
and then the then the sheriff pulls up and they
video this guy and he goes, he goes, yeah, these.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
Guys are living behind behind my house.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well now they can live behind Nancy Pelosi's house in
front of Nancy Blois. And the sheriff goes, yeah, you
got about ten minutes, get this cleaned up and get
the hell out of here. There's two there's two sets
of rules, them, them and us, you know.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
And and and for the record, I don't believe that
is a red blue issue. That is a wealthy versus
the rest of us issue. It doesn't They're all the
same when it comes to Uh, you know.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
There's a bunch on the right that are worse than
the ones on the left. I can. I know of
a couple very close.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
I've had one on one conversations with him, and I
got a chance of one of them. I told him
to his face, what a what a piece of shitt
he is. You don't care about poor people. You don't
care about the people that their power goes out. You
don't care at all about them, you know. And uh,
in that, in standing there and acting like you do,

(07:39):
that's worse than anything. But somewhere down the road you
will be judged. I truly believe karma is real, you know, And.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
You know, going back to the you know, going back
to the fact that you know, I could never live
next to some of the neighbors I would have in Portland.
At the same time, while we fight over you know,
social ship like that that doesn't actually matter whatsoever.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
Uh, the rich.

Speaker 4 (08:07):
Unite and just steal the wealth right out from under
us about stuff that doesn't actually even matter at all.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
That's what they want.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Well, let's put a disclimer in here. If you're a
wealthy person who wants to sponsor our podcast.

So this fits exactly what we were talking about. Perfect.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
Yeah, perfect.

He melts down? We need to play that one day, Okay,
I have in.

Speaker 4 (10:34):
A past life for uh radio show I used to
do here, I took the time and edited all of
that thing down so that we could play it on
it because of course, you remember during during the pandemic
there were no sports, So what's a sports station to
talk about? How about we play old clips of Casey

(10:57):
Casem melting down?

Speaker 3 (10:59):
You give me the name of a dead dog. I
can't come out of a peppy song?

Speaker 2 (11:03):
Did you edit the F word out of it?

Speaker 3 (11:05):
Or yeah?

Speaker 4 (11:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (11:10):
Let me let me dig it.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
I have it somewhere saved because it was a crowning achievement.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
It was amazing every radio DJ and the number of
people that's never heard this, it's so fantastic. Casey case
literally loses his ship while he's recording this the Countdown
show that we all grew up with, and you just
first of all, you know his name was Cassine Cassim.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
He was He was a Saudi I think, nice guy.
Years ago.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
I talked to him once and uh and just on
a on the phone. Uh, and uh, and so I
was doing his I do in print. Yeah here, now
here's a letter from a little girl and it's about
a dog. And so you've got to hear what he
just he loses moving up, you know.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
So that's what I was doing with this list. I'm
gonna I'm gonna the last. This is the friendliest neighborhoods
in the US. Uh, I lost it somewhere in there.
I don't know any kind.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
Of went Letterman there.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
For there was a Letterman Top ten that started as
casey case and ended with Letterman.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Again not a bad book.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
And all right, what do we got, let me do
John wah, Okay, there you go. You got all.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
That's my three impression.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yeah uh, all right, So Deer Valley, which is in Phoenix.
These are neighborhoods, not cities. This is the city's Phoenix,
of course, but the Deer Valley, of course, these are all.
Now here's what's mixed in there. It's safety, friendliest neighborhood.
Safety from crime. Of course, a lot of crime don't
get reported. You go East Saint Louis, nobody's reporting crime.
And they don't even have a police station. So they

(12:46):
could be East Saint Louis could be the friendliest city
in town, you know, in the world.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
But go visit the summer and check back. Yeah, report
back with me.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah right, You're social Security number on your arm, they'll
so we'll be able to get uh. Then in l
believe it or not, Number four L Passo, the northwest neighborhood.
I've actually been in that neighborhood. It's up on the mountain.
And get your view. You're up there in this and
what is considered now I would say a million dollar home.

(13:17):
You're up there, you're standing in the backyard. Your view
is of the Shanny shacks across the border.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
That's kind of what I was just thinking. I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
If you had.

Speaker 4 (13:29):
Given me a hundred guesses, I would have guessed a
neighborhood in l Passo.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
I wouldn't think of it.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
But you're looking at your view is I mean, there's
some pretty beautiful mountains.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
You know, it's a beautiful mountain there, but it looks
down on the city at night.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
But during the day, if you look out, you're looking
at the warriors with the just nothing but Shanny's just
tar paper shacks. You know, people over there living in
a shed and you're up there in a million dollar home.
How would you be with that? I don't think I
could do that, you know, I don't. I don't know,
but that's probably people look at my house or in
Dripping Springs when they're when they're driving by, they're they're

(14:04):
headed to their ice houses, and we're uh, well, let
me say this.

Speaker 2 (14:08):
Some of the meth.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Labs in Dripping are in my neighborhood. I'm very proud
of those guys too.

Speaker 3 (14:13):
Those are the salt of the earth people right there.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Hey, buddy, ten percent of myth on that give back day,
ten percent of our myth sales goes to that charity.
And it's a lot of that's our customers. But still good,
good people there for sure.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
Let's see.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Uh okay, here's another one. Corpus Christy, the South Side
neighborhood and Corpus Christie.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
You're all away.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
You grew up around there, weren't you? Didn't you go
at all?

Speaker 3 (14:39):
I was, I was north, I.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
Had Dallas, but I thought you spent time in Corpus.
Who do I know?

Speaker 4 (14:44):
I've got one of my college roommates was from Corporitos.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
But uh, I.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
I actually I have only really ever driven through on
the way to poort A. I don't think I've ever
stayed in proper Again, you've given me.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
A thousand, a million, would guess, half a million.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
Guesses, and I wouldn't have said Corpus Christie friendliest neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
I don't know what that's based on.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
Friendly, Okay, I believe that. I mean the UH.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
I have a couple of buddies that are very wealthy,
I mean like money wealthy, and they both of them
told me the future, a big future of Texas is
Corpus Christie. They're dredging that harbor. They want to give
Houston a run for their money in that harbor, you know,
and that the whole chemical plant this is where Venezuela,
where Chevron's all comes out of Venezuela and comes to

(15:38):
UH up to In fact, my friend works for Chevron,
and you tell me that that they're developing that plant,
but that that port is going to grow huge as
they dredge it and they're able to get the deepest
cargo ships.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
And this is all because of the COVID deal.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
You know, they've learned that man, if they can you know,
they can get in here easier than they can get
in uh, you know, as they I'm around from. I
think Panama has a lot to do with this. But
they're they're wanting to develop Corpus Dinner and they're buying
up land left and right.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
In Corpus Christie.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
So there's a little hint for you, Houston, Texas. I'm
familiar with this Kingwood, the neighborhood Kingwood, Kingwood. My friend
Patrick McConaughey lives in Kingwood, and uh, yeah, I should
call him because I know he probably almost kept him
off the leak having for Man number one, I know,
just knowing him, you know.

Speaker 4 (16:25):
But we, uh we went to I had a buddy
who married into some real I mean I'm talking you know,
backwoods country boy married into some really really deep pocketed
oil money, uh from a girl who Houston family. We
went to a we went to their wedding at a

(16:46):
country club, private club in the Kingwood are part of Houston.
And I just remember, You've had like his side of
the family and friends and it's all these backwoods country folk,
and then it's her side of the family and it's
all these you know, pinky out sophisticated. You know, it's
urban cowboys, yallar suits minimum like you know that was

(17:09):
the poor suit was was a you know, eight to
ten thousand dollars suit.

Speaker 3 (17:13):
And we're all there and you know, wranglers, yeah, and
jeans exactly wranglers and justin so.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
The number one. And I can't read my own handwriting.
It's either Omaha or Oklahoma. It's the it's got to
be Oklahoma, gotta be elk Corn neighborhood in either Omaha
or I think that says Omaha. I'm poor writing. I
broke my finger playing football and I was young, and
so I can't My writing is not that good. So
Elkhorn neighborhood in either Omaha or Oklahoma doesn't matters or

(17:44):
near here friendliest neighborhood in the United States, according to them,
that wouldn't surprise me. If are you pulling up porn?

Speaker 2 (17:53):
What are you looking at it? Are you trying to
find this?

Speaker 3 (17:55):
Looking at el Corn?

Speaker 4 (17:56):
Well, because when I think of Omaha, now porn's on
another tab.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
When I started saying, why are you going to side porn?

Speaker 4 (18:04):
I'm such a data nerd Porn for me a census
data about Nebraska counties. Yeah, that's you got to remember
I was raised by politicians.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
That is my porn. Uh. Now I was thinking Omaha
because what's a Warren Buffett?

Speaker 4 (18:19):
I wonder if that is possibly his, you know, because
the roommate here, her company has an office in Omaha.
Omaha is a surprising tech hub. Yeah, prior modern city
compared to the rest of the Midwest.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
You know a lot of our a lot of our
tech stuff came out of there from for iHeart. I
remember you talked to those guys and a lot of
money in a lot of money.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
What why are you in Omaha and the go that's
I guess that's where we are.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
You know, it's cheap, it's central, and they're.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
Really uh friendly, you know tech modern business sector. You know,
government wanting to promote more modern technology when it comes
to you know, recruiting businesses.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
See look what you've learned, folks listening to the Bama
Brown Experience podcast thanks to Puma because otherwise, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (19:15):
And if you ever go to Omaha, you could always
plan your trip around the College.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
World Series College Baseball World Series.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
I knew that, and I didn't know that La Stadium
only because of the UT guys go there a lot,
all right, So I guess that's a good one to
end on. I didn't know he knew exactly what he
knew all about Omaha. I didn't know if his Oklahoma
or Omaha, and if and.

Speaker 4 (19:37):
If it was Elkhorn, Oklahoma, then this list was utter
shit because there's.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
No way an Oklahoma neighborhood was number one.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
See.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
That's why I was having a real real issue without
it on myself.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
But they once again, I had my notes. You know, Uh,
there is no notes.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
For this show, and you could people are like, really, really,
you're making this up as you go. No, I would
have this was well planned out it because of my
experience thirty seven years doing this. If you've ever listened
to me at all, you go, he's just making that up.
He don't even know if he's he's lucky he finds
the station every day, you know. So that's a good point,

(20:14):
and that's probably why it's coming to an end. Anyway,

On Purpose with Jay Shetty

I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us. I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose.
