Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hi, everybody. Bama Brown with you and the Bama Brown
Experience on the iHeart podcast network along with the Big Cat,
the Buma Man. You have the Sports Cave, sir, and
it is very popular.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
I might have to steal that and become the Puma Mann.
That sounds like a It sounds like a bad knockoff
Marvel character, like Uma Man, one who was rejected from
the Avengers. Puma Man. We've had another good week here
over there on the Sports Cave. Of course, we're live

(00:35):
last night, but if you missed it, you can get
the audio version anywhere you get your podcast. Prefer you
use that iHeart app, But just search for the Sports
Cave with the Biggest Puma. Come get caught up.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Let's start off with a big cat story. There was
a giant lion that was seen roaming around the countryside
in Ireland. Officials have been looking for police have been
looking for it. They found it. It turned out to
be a big old dog that somebody had given a
lion haircut.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Toyah was my question of what the hell like do
we Surely if it escaped from a zoo, a zoo
would have reported that, hey, local citizens, there's a lion
potentially in your backyard.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Unless you're the one that let it out, then you're
not telling nobody. Yeah, that's fair. Yes, I look for trouble.
You know, what do you mean we.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Had thirteen lions yesterday. No, we've always only had twelve.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
It doesn't even doesn't. That's the way it's always been.
If you're a fitness expert like you are, being too
attractive can be a problem because as a fitness influencer,
they say that people don't believe you when you're extremely attractive,
and they just say it looks like a pro that

(01:49):
really hasn't worked out. You know, I don't know, I'm
just reading.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
I would sure. I'm sure it's so difficult for the
ultra attractive in the best shape of any human on earth.
I'm sure their life is really really difficult.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Yeah, like a lot of people. I hope a lot
of them die. So you know you're early and fast
and painful. Here's a list of things that efficient people
do not do. Oh okay, so don't do these if
you're efficient. Number ten, you wait for the perfect conditions
before doing anything. Now I have gotten around that one.

(02:28):
I found myself. I used to do that, and I
just get the job done. Just go no matter what
and get it over with. Surround themselves with people who
think ambition is a personality flaw. If you're an ambitious person,
get away from people that go. Man, you shouldn't be.
And I had a buddy of mine that played football
and I was the other I was the other person.

(02:50):
I didn't want him. I want him to go hang
and play with me and not practice and not be
in shape. And he went and he he was on
the Livingston Alabama national championship team. So congrats to Eddie
for not paying attention to me, and I'm glad he
did so.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah, for rejecting your bad influences.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Number eight, they skip the breaks. Breaks are for you
to rest and like pull it together real quick. Take
your break when you get one. Uh, multitask to the
they saying number seven A multitask to the extent that
you are not doing anything. Well, yeah, doing everything, but
you're not doing any of it. Just pick something and

(03:37):
do it and then move on to the next thing.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
If you're doing everything half assed because you're all trying
to do it at the same time, you're not getting
anything done.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Number six saying yes to everything. Okay, I did this today.
I was called and said, hey, can you do this event?
And I said, nope, out of town that day. Now
I'm not out of town, but I'm not doing it
because I really don't want to. So you know, that's
what you learn to do. You don't owe anybody anything,

(04:07):
You just just oh yourself waiting to feel motivated to start.
That kind of goes down to that bottom one there.
But if you've got to be motivated to start it,
just get going, just start it, and before you know it,
maybe you are motivated. Number four confused busy with productive.
Everybody's seen that one. You you know, he's like, oh,
so busy. And the people that tell you how busy

(04:29):
they are usually the ones that are that they're just
not productive.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
So kind of hold back with the multitasking where you're
not getting anything done, like if you're just constantly busy,
work like that.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
And that goes with this one. Responding to every notification
you don't need to. You don't have to answer everybody,
and they're not expecting you to. But then when you
do get one, answer them, you know or short answer anyway.
Number two treat the calendar like a suggestion box. Don't
just ride on it and you go, Okay, I'm going
to do this. For if you put something on the calendar,

(05:04):
don't put so much stuff is put the things that
are real that matter, and do those. And I'm doing that.
So I'm doing a lot of these pretty good. Last
one is starting to day by checking the phone. Now
everybody does this, but it said the reason, what their
reason is, if you've done everything you're supposed to do,
then you shouldn't have to start your day out going

(05:25):
oh god, who's galling me? You know. So if you
have everything done like you're supposed to do, looking at
the phone in the morning is a pleasant thing. It's like,
oh cool, this is you know. But I know a
lot of people that that don't that. You know, first
thing they have to do is look at the phone
because pretty much everything turns the shit overnight.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Yeah, or you know, probably already a fire they need
to put out, put out.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
So you know, let's see, kids called a lady at
the amusement park in Freeholding, New Jersey. They called her
a care and so she shoot. She sued the park
and they said, yeah, yet that's not a thing. You
can't just because the kids called you names.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
Look as many as many of these kinds of crazy
lawsuits we hear, it makes me happy when you hear
one that actually doesn't reward idiots like that, right, thank you.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
For the time.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
Most of the time it's like, oh, and they settled
out of court for thirty thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
It's like, what, yeah, why would you do that? You know,
one time the city, the police shot a guy and uh,
you know, he's had a record as long as your arm,
and he did the suicide by cops and the parents
of gor you know, he had already turned his life around.
You all right, bullshit, but uh he uh And I
don't mean talk bad of the dead, but when they're

(06:46):
criminals like that, it's okay. And they shot at the cops.
He shot at the cops trying to get killed, and
they awarded him by shooting him. Anyway, the family sued
and they gave him a hundred grand because and I
asked the guy about it. I was like why, and
he said, it's cheaper just pay him than it is
to drag it out in courts for years, you know, So.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
What that's what you always hear.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
But I just can't you reward bad behavior and that's
what you get?

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Man. It feels like that's why the courts are there.
Though yeah, I know it might. It's it's more of
a principle issue, like it might cost you more, but
take a principled stand against stupid stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Absolutely by listening to the show. Wait a minute, I've
been waiting to I've been waiting for this one all
week long. I saved this for Friday. The uh okay,
this was the uh I want to it's this State
of Maine Health System send out five hundred letters to
patients informing them that they were deceased, so they had

(07:54):
to send out five hundred apology letters that followed and
said you were not deceased. Sorry, we apologize for telling
you you were deceased.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
So this sounds like a Monty Python opening credits bit.
We regret to inform you that you are now deceased.
We regret that we regretted to inform you that you
were deceased, but now you are alive.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
So uh, and of course everybody got to do the joke,
you know. Uh, the rumors of my demise have been
greatly exaggerated. You got that one forever of course. Uh.
Here's a guy who was wandering around shirtless at Purdue
University covered in peanut butter. They called the cops and

(08:38):
they couldn't do anything about it because they said there's
nothing illegal about walking around smothered and peanut butter. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
I guess as long as he's got clothes on.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
Yeah, it wasn't indecent exposure. I don't don't.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
Where Purdue is Indiana. Do they have bears in Indiana
or like wildlife that would be attracted to peanut butter.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
They would have to get hold.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
So yeah, Like I'm thinking the Darwin Awards might take
care of that guy.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
With eating eating like a chicken leg.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
Just enjoy.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Yeah, here's the top baby names for women. Olivia, Uh
the game spells read his segment. Uh, Sophia, I love Sophia.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
That's that's a classic.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Emma Isabelle, Isabelle, you can't help, but you have to
say it that way. And Charlotte. And then for guys, Noah,
lim uh like lim Neeson. Uh, let's see Oliver, Elijah,
and Mattillo. Those your baby names.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Uh seemingly some sounding like some old Testament. Come back
there with Elijah.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
And sounds like some foreigners.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Yeah, well Elijah Elia just I know a bunch of
rednecks named Eli Okay.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yeah, and thought that's what it really says. Yeah, that's
a no. I think a lot of that is come
to America and have your baby for free. Yeah that's uh,
you know, but that's you start. No, I'm not gonna
go down there as much as they used to. Yeah,
that's slowed down significantly. Uh, Texans can bid now in
a vanity car plate. Uh, they have fifty of the

(10:24):
ones coming, the one of a kind. What's available is
sweet classic y'all with like three a's and two l's.
You go to my plate's great plate auction.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
Oh these are yeah, these are the names that so
many people requested, and they figured out a way to
make extra money by having people bid for them. That's
not a bad idea, that's that's that's actually an example
where government actually had a pretty good idea to raise
more money.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
And it's done well. I think every year now I came,
you know I was gonna have when I had the
John Wick Chavelle, actually had the car from the movie.
Lot of people know that I was gonna have mister
Wick you know, I looked at it, and then I
also was going to have uh, what do they call him?
The Oh yeah, the boogeyman. You he's gonna have, you know, boogman.

(11:19):
It was there was something else I was going to have.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (11:21):
The boogyman? The Boogeyman looks under his bed for John Wick.
You know, it's kind of door stuff.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
So you could have just just a pencil, like he
killed the.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Man with a pencil. Well, see, I don't know if
I'd do that, I'd get a lot of negative. Yeah, pencil.

Speaker 2 (11:41):
Maybe maybe we need to think that one. I think
that idea.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
Uh. The police had been called to Waterstown, South Dakota.
Burglar was trash in an apartment and the cops came
in through the flashlights on at their guns. Out it
was a deer that had jumped through the window and
was trying ash in this apartment wanting to you know,
obviously get out and uh and couldn't do it. So
that was, you know, it wasn't good. Hopefully y'all had

(12:08):
a great week, uh boom, and I had a solid week.
Now you guys are back next week live show still right,
h oh.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yeah, we'll be back Tuesday, Thursday Live next week and
then of course Monday Morning with you.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
If you want a good laugh, go to the Cavett page.
And I put a video up of a model. I
started back building models, and this model's got it's got
so much glue.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Oh very nice, you like that.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
Always wanted the building, build a real one, like as
a model a coop hot rod. You know, I'm an
O'Har rod guy, and I did a lot of model
a's over years, but I always want to build, and
I built one, and so the video. Go check it out.
But look at that glue. Look at that the blower hat.
It's got glue all over. It looks like a five
year old did it as well.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
You're getting back into the into the hobby.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
It's gonna I am starting slow and I can't see.
And I got the shapes, and I got these big
I got these big monkey fingers, although they fit my nostrils,
which is the main reason.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
It looks great. Yeah, you're killing man.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
So now I want to build a real one like that,
and that would be cool, But unfortunately I'm financially embarrassed
now because of Baylor Law, and so this is the
kind that's what I can afford. That's the hot rods
I can afford right there. So anyway, y'all have a
great weekend and we'll catch up with you sometime soon, hopefully,

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
