- The incredible story of Butch, a roughneck who turned a $90K loan into a $90 million oilfield invention.
- Travel banter that spans from Yellowstone to Kauai, with a side of nostalgia for Mount Rushmore and Big Sur.
- And the hilarious, possibly true, story of how Bama invented the Banana Splits cartoon—and had the idea stolen by a neighbor’s dad who worked with Hanna-Barbera.

Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hi, everybody. Bama Brown with you on the Bama Brown
Experience on the iHeart Podcast Network. Thank you for listening.
Got the Big Puma, the big Cat, he's on with me.
He's got his own podcast. You guys live tonight, right
we are.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
We are back live eight o'clock tonight over on YouTube.
If you missed it last week. We did a did
a fun NBA draft watch party last Wednesday, So if
you missed that, go check it out. But we are
back live tonight and again, if you only need the
audio version, I completely understand. Anywhere you get your podcast,
just search for the Sports Cave with Biggest Puma.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Those things are getting to be standing room only, so
you got to kind of get ahead of that. If
you're going to those, you want to get early if
you can start Yeah, yeah, all right. So uh, let's
start out with a bonehead. Let's get this over with
Richard Jews his last name. He's the police chief of
(01:00):
staff in San Francisco. I mean he's a big dog,
he's a big man, the big cheese. Well he was uma.
He did a hit and run. He'd had a couple
of cocktails or ten there. He had a hit and
run and then when the police got a hold of him.
In other words, when one of his employees started asking
him questions, he started giving him false information, and the guy,
(01:23):
according to the thing, said, second chance, chief, I'm going
to ask you this stuff again. Let's you know, because
here's the thing about police, And unfortunately I know this
for a fact, they already know the answer when they're
asking you the question. So whatever you tell them might
as well match up with what they're going to because
they already have the video. Now, they already have all information.
(01:43):
So they're just asking you to incriminate yourself. A good
time to say, uh, I need to have my lawyer
present for I do anything else. The dumbest thing you
can do in the world is answered police questions without
your lawyer sitting there, because you'd be amazed what a
difference that makes. Wow, here's the other side of that.
When they do get a chance to ram you, they
(02:05):
will for doing that. You know. So you're thinking, I'm
really guilty here, you know, and you got to in
your head be quick. But usually you're better off you
just tell them the truth and then you know, maybe
they don't charge it as much.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Yeah, they don't. They don't usually take kindly to you
actually knowing and expressing your personal rights right, that usually
is pretty annoying to them. They much prefer when you
just continue to dig the hole deeper and make their
jobs way easier.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
And one of the things too, I like to point
out to people that when you see these guys these
videos on TV on the computer where they go, I
know my rights, I know you can't be you know,
you may win that one, but you don't want to
piss off a policeman who's got nothing better to do
but watch you twenty four to seven. So when you
do screw up, you know, and then there's always that
(02:53):
guy'll go, I just found this gun in your car,
you know, And you're like, I don't have a gun.
It was in your car, and what's on my camera?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
And powder residue on it, Oh, just fall in your
glove box.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Yeah, you can beat it, and you can always beat
it in court. But guess what, you probably just sit.
And I told this buddy of mine and he had
to carry a gun everywhere. I said, when you shoot
that guy, get ready to spend one hundred thousand dollars
just to try not to get in front of a
grand jury, because the grand jury you can get a
guy in of bad mood. You'll go, yeah, I don't
send that guy in jail. And so when you go
(03:27):
to court, I mean, you could spend everything you got,
So it's always better just to go. When the officer
walks up, have your hand on the window, both hands
on the window, and he says, hey, how you doing?
He say, how are you sir? The reason I stopped
you is whatever? And then I need to see your
idea and your insurance. Have both of them hand them
(03:48):
to him. You may get a ticket, you may not,
but you don't fight it at the intersection. You fight
it in court. But if the best thing to do
is just yes sir, no sir, yes, ma'am, no, ma'am,
treat them with a treat them how you treat anybody.
And guess what, you won't get your head beat in
on the side of the road. That's that's not one
person that's been attack and beat up by a police
(04:10):
officer ever got it by going yes sir, no sir, yes, ma'am, no, ma'am.
And you know it's always.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
How's your day going?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
All right? Just a knuckle sandwich, just be friendly. I
had a guide a speed trap one time, and he said,
do you have any questions for me? Now here is
where you don't want to go. How do you live
with yourself?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah, it's a smart ass and you you come out.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah, don't just go. You just granted go no, sir,
and then later on you you know, you get out
of it hopefully, but you may have to pay it whatever.
But I'm telling you this to try your best to
do that. All right. Here is your your sites if
you're going to go on U on any kind of
(04:53):
holiday they're talking about, these are the best sites to go.
See h the not he was number eight. If you
got I mean, if you got unlimited funds, I guess
you'd go see the now big serve.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Are we calling Danali Mount McKinley again?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
It didn't, are they? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
The Trumpster changed the name back because Denali was the native,
the indigenous name. I think they changed it back to
Mount McKinley.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Now, you know, always be the opposite of the suburban
to me, I don't care what about I mean.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
That's exactly. It's a gmc excel.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Every Indian out there's going away to go white guy,
you know. So Number seven is big sir, which I
always thought that was a big surf, but it's big
serve California. Have you been there? You sing out there?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
We've seen it. I used to have an aunt and
uncle that lived out there on the West coast and
uh we you know, that was one of the California
has a lot of problems, but it has a lot
of natural beauty. I mean in.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Natural temperatures, and I mean they do get to fires
and things, but they also from what I understand is
weatherwise in the world, you know, but I don't know
the badlands up in the North Dkota area. You know,
that's become very popular, you know, deadwood in that area.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yeah, we did. We The only time was we did,
you know, road tripping through and just saw the Mount Rushmore,
but never went to North Dakota.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
I want to go to Mount right, Yeah, that's in
South Dakota. I want to go see Mount Rushmore and
Devil's Tower, those are the two.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Mount Rushmore is kind of underwhelming, is it really?
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:30):
See, it's not as big as you think in your head.
Every picture you've ever seen of it is all zoomed
in and it looks massive. And then when you're at
the little observation deck. You look up and it it
kind of looks like smaller than some Texas limestone cliffs.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
I wanted to go since north by Northwest, you know.
And there's a here's some movie trivia for you if
you ever want us, and you can get the clip
look at it. But in the scene where he shoots
the girl in the in the uh uh at Mount Rushmore,
the they have a you know, cafeteria or whatever, and
(07:07):
they meet the bad guys in there and he shoots
this girl. And I won't give away, but there's a
kid sitting there who knows he's a little actor. He's
a kid. He knows it's coming, and he puts his
fingers in his ears and they left it. You could
see it in the movie. So if you get a chance,
download the scene. Uh carry Grant shoots Ava Gardner and
(07:28):
uh and uh look for this kid. It's plain as day.
You can see it with him putting his fingers in
his ear because he knows his gunshot about to go off.
You know. So there's a little trivia for you. Let's
see what else. Number four, oh, number five was Yosemite
in California.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Another been there.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
You've been to Yosemite.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Yuh, captain right there the beautiful cliff side.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Anytime I say Yosemite, I have to go whoa just
say yeah. The kids my age, you know. Uh. Number
four was Kentucket, Nantucket up in the Northeast. Now have
you been there, because you've been everywhere? Man, Yeah, I don't,
I don't.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Don't. I think you'll believe me when I say I
don't think I'm fit for Nantucket.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
You're not a Nantucket because I had a dog from
Nantucket and he tried to Number three, which is when
I've actually been to Yellowstone. That's been a week in Yellowstone.
There's every thing in Yellowstone is perfect.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Chased by buffalo and Yellowstone really well. He was an
idiot tourist that got out of the car and it
wasn't just you know, get a better picture, to get
a better look at it. And if that thing charged
right at him, ran his ass right back into the car.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, he made the right call. Kawhi in Hawaii, I
guess that's where they shoot all the movies, right in Kawhi.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
And the Ark and all that valley they have there.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Did you do that? Did you do KOI?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Or yeah, yeah we did.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Man, you've been, You've really traveled, You've done a lot
of neat stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
There's a lot. I mean it sounds incredibly cliche, but
I don't think you can really put a value on
just seeing the world. You're just seeing what else is
out there, even if you're even if you're only there
for forty eight hours, it still leaves you with an impression.
I mean, like Hawaii, we were and we've spent five
(09:27):
days there, but we tried to do as much as
we could. So yeah, I would happily spend a month's
salary on a trip.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Well that's cool. Now, I'm not bragging, but I was
an Odessa last week. I mean, it's no Kawhi, but
you know.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, no, I'm waiting. I'm sure that's number one on
the list here.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
I am still hungover and was out there with my
I was out there with my other brother, Rooster McConaughey,
the oldest McConaughey, and god, oh mighty, can he well
his kids named Miller Lai. That's his legal name, Miller
life out then, man, I don't I think I may
have damaged my taste. Bud's worse than the COVID at
that time. You can't you. I mean him and Butch,
(10:12):
this guy I went to high school. But Butch is
an interesting guy. When we were in high school and
Odessa High, Butch was a he was a year older
than me, and we just knew each other. This good guy,
you know. I mean, he's hard and they're all all
field workers are like me, rough necks and stuff. Butch
borrowed ninety thousand dollars. He got somebody to loan him
ninety thousand dollars and it was a patent that he
(10:35):
bought and he kept working on this path. I don't
even understand what it was. Something oil related that you know.
And he's come from an old related family, working family,
not they had no money. I mean, he was working
like the rest of us. And he got this thing invented,
and all of a sudden, every major oil company wanted it.
And he sold that patent for ninety million dollars. Yeah,
(10:58):
I mean it was like he was like in his
twenties when he finally got it put together. He got
ninety million. Then he invested that money, and you talk
to him, you would even know. I mean, he's just
like one of us and then he's made another night
at me and thence then and I think Roosters sold
Pipe his whole life, you know, o Phil Pipe used Pipe. Well,
I think Rooster is probably worth fifty million himself. But
(11:19):
these two got they got we got drunken or hangar.
And there's these two gigantic, three million dollar helicopters sitting there,
you know, with the with the that says a lot
and motorcycles and Matthew's Kamaro was there and there's all
these I mean, it's just they're just you know. And
he and last time I was there, he goes, oh,
I gotta go check one of my wells. Man mclamn,
(11:39):
let's go. And he has an automatic thing that drives
the helicopters on a pad with wheels and his radio
gre and it drives out into his Where's helopad is
the Where's house is there north of Odessa, And it's
not like a house in Odessa. It's like nice, you know.
And and we get in the helicopter and we fly
over near Kermit to look it is well that he'd
(12:01):
had some kind of work had to be done on it,
and his guys were down there working while he's flying
around him in a helicopter and I'm just going this
is this is just crazy. It's like a whole other
game world. You know.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Yeah, that doesn't doesn't sound like real life. It sounds
your buddy though, he lived the dream just fine. I
remember when I was a kid, you know, when you
would stay home sick from school and you would see
those commercials for you know, contact us to if you
have an invention, we'll right and all of the thought
we were gonna be you know, millionaires from the invention
(12:34):
that we would come up with. And your buddy actually
did it.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
He actually did. Okay, I'm going to tell you right
now the only invention I ever had, the only real
invention I ever had. All right, you're ready for this,
and this is totally one hundred percent true. When I
was a little kid, I invented the Banana Splits. You
remember the cartoon band they rode in. You're too young,
(12:59):
you would not know this. There was a cartoon on
Saturday called the Banana Splitz, and it was these guys
dressed up in these animal cars costumes, and they had
a band and they rode in go karts, in these
six wheel go carts. That was totally me. I came
up with the name. I came up with these cartoons.
I came up with the name of these things, and
(13:22):
I came up with the Banana Splits for the name
of the band. And then they were a band. I mean,
I put all this together and I was maybe I'm
gonna be at I'm probably ten years old. I'm ten.
It was in Athens, Georgia, and I told my buddy
Downhill about it. His name was Fiskey. I told Fusekew
(13:42):
about it. I said, and his dad worked at the
University of Georgia in the in the media department and
did a lot of stuff with Hanno Barbara and his
freaking dad stole that idea and sold.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
It to them. I guarantee you he did to come
from and.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
I, I mean, I will give you animals and suits.
I'll give you animals and suits and cars, animals and
suits in carts with a band named the Banana Splits. No, sir,
that's mine. That was mine. Mentioned stole from me. Man,
they stole from me.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
You know you need to contact a.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Returning yeah firm.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
You might have a solid.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Case I need. I need to call that guy stands
on the car, you know, and tell him, hey, I
banana splits and sober up, sir on it.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Okay, okay, I'm looking at a picture of it now.
This is exactly what I envisioned like nineteen sixties, seventies,
just absolute ask you looking up.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It was all me. I made up that entire thing.
I swear to God, I put up put a bible here,
and I will swear to you. And I went in
here and told him and he told his dad about it.
I know his dad because I tell you, I know
his dad this stuff like that, because they shot one
of those schools elms one time, you know, where Bobby
he treats Billy nice, you know, and then Betty is
(15:06):
picking up the books, you know, that kind of email's
educational films. That's what his dad ran, that department in
the University of Georgia. And I remember when we were
down there. He worked with Hannah Barbara who ended up
ended up buying that or putting that thing on Saturday morning.
And oh it souns a bit it stole from me.
Whom are they stole from me?
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Yeah, I'm telling you, I still I don't think it's
it's still not too late. To contact a good lawyer.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Yeah, I need to get that. Yeah image, I call
law firms to give him that story, and they'll go, yeah,
the lawter, the real lawyer's gonna call you back here
in a minute, hanging by the phone. Why are the
cops outside? Where's that Galway? Why's he got a net?
All right, that's enough of that. You're listening to the

Speaker 1 (06:46):
I wanted to go since north by Northwest, you know.
And there's a here's some movie trivia for you if
you ever want us, and you can get the clip
look at it. But in the scene where he shoots
the girl in the in the uh uh at Mount Rushmore,
the they have a you know, cafeteria or whatever, and
(07:07):
they meet the bad guys in there and he shoots
this girl. And I won't give away, but there's a
kid sitting there who knows he's a little actor. He's
a kid. He knows it's coming, and he puts his
fingers in his ears and they left it. You could
see it in the movie. So if you get a chance,
download the scene. Uh carry Grant shoots Ava Gardner and
(07:28):
uh and uh look for this kid. It's plain as day.
You can see it with him putting his fingers in
his ear because he knows his gunshot about to go off.
You know. So there's a little trivia for you. Let's
see what else. Number four, oh, number five was Yosemite
in California.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Another been there.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
You've been to Yosemite.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Yuh, captain right there the beautiful cliff side.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Anytime I say Yosemite, I have to go whoa just
say yeah. The kids my age, you know. Uh. Number
four was Kentucket, Nantucket up in the Northeast. Now have
you been there, because you've been everywhere? Man, Yeah, I don't,
I don't.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Don't. I think you'll believe me when I say I
don't think I'm fit for Nantucket.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
You're not a Nantucket because I had a dog from
Nantucket and he tried to Number three, which is when
I've actually been to Yellowstone. That's been a week in Yellowstone.
There's every thing in Yellowstone is perfect.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Chased by buffalo and Yellowstone really well. He was an
idiot tourist that got out of the car and it
wasn't just you know, get a better picture, to get
a better look at it. And if that thing charged
right at him, ran his ass right back into the car.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, he made the right call. Kawhi in Hawaii, I
guess that's where they shoot all the movies, right in Kawhi.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
And the Ark and all that valley they have there.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Did you do that? Did you do KOI?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Or yeah, yeah we did.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Man, you've been, You've really traveled, You've done a lot
of neat stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
There's a lot. I mean it sounds incredibly cliche, but
I don't think you can really put a value on
just seeing the world. You're just seeing what else is
out there, even if you're even if you're only there
for forty eight hours, it still leaves you with an impression.
I mean, like Hawaii, we were and we've spent five
(09:27):
days there, but we tried to do as much as
we could. So yeah, I would happily spend a month's
salary on a trip.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Well that's cool. Now, I'm not bragging, but I was
an Odessa last week. I mean, it's no Kawhi, but
you know.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, no, I'm waiting. I'm sure that's number one on
the list here.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
I am still hungover and was out there with my
I was out there with my other brother, Rooster McConaughey,
the oldest McConaughey, and god, oh mighty, can he well
his kids named Miller Lai. That's his legal name, Miller
life out then, man, I don't I think I may
have damaged my taste. Bud's worse than the COVID at
that time. You can't you. I mean him and Butch,
(10:12):
this guy I went to high school. But Butch is
an interesting guy. When we were in high school and
Odessa High, Butch was a he was a year older
than me, and we just knew each other. This good guy,
you know. I mean, he's hard and they're all all
field workers are like me, rough necks and stuff. Butch
borrowed ninety thousand dollars. He got somebody to loan him
ninety thousand dollars and it was a patent that he
(10:35):
bought and he kept working on this path. I don't
even understand what it was. Something oil related that you know.
And he's come from an old related family, working family,
not they had no money. I mean, he was working
like the rest of us. And he got this thing invented,
and all of a sudden, every major oil company wanted it.
And he sold that patent for ninety million dollars. Yeah,
(10:58):
I mean it was like he was like in his
twenties when he finally got it put together. He got
ninety million. Then he invested that money, and you talk
to him, you would even know. I mean, he's just
like one of us and then he's made another night
at me and thence then and I think Roosters sold
Pipe his whole life, you know, o Phil Pipe used Pipe. Well,
I think Rooster is probably worth fifty million himself. But
(11:19):
these two got they got we got drunken or hangar.
And there's these two gigantic, three million dollar helicopters sitting there,
you know, with the with the that says a lot
and motorcycles and Matthew's Kamaro was there and there's all
these I mean, it's just they're just you know. And
he and last time I was there, he goes, oh,
I gotta go check one of my wells. Man mclamn,
(11:39):
let's go. And he has an automatic thing that drives
the helicopters on a pad with wheels and his radio
gre and it drives out into his Where's helopad is
the Where's house is there north of Odessa, And it's
not like a house in Odessa. It's like nice, you know.
And and we get in the helicopter and we fly
over near Kermit to look it is well that he'd
(12:01):
had some kind of work had to be done on it,
and his guys were down there working while he's flying
around him in a helicopter and I'm just going this
is this is just crazy. It's like a whole other
game world. You know.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Yeah, that doesn't doesn't sound like real life. It sounds
your buddy though, he lived the dream just fine. I
remember when I was a kid, you know, when you
would stay home sick from school and you would see
those commercials for you know, contact us to if you
have an invention, we'll right and all of the thought
we were gonna be you know, millionaires from the invention
(12:34):
that we would come up with. And your buddy actually
did it.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
He actually did. Okay, I'm going to tell you right
now the only invention I ever had, the only real
invention I ever had. All right, you're ready for this,
and this is totally one hundred percent true. When I
was a little kid, I invented the Banana Splits. You
remember the cartoon band they rode in. You're too young,
(12:59):
you would not know this. There was a cartoon on
Saturday called the Banana Splitz, and it was these guys
dressed up in these animal cars costumes, and they had
a band and they rode in go karts, in these
six wheel go carts. That was totally me. I came
up with the name. I came up with these cartoons.
I came up with the name of these things, and
(13:22):
I came up with the Banana Splits for the name
of the band. And then they were a band. I mean,
I put all this together and I was maybe I'm
gonna be at I'm probably ten years old. I'm ten.
It was in Athens, Georgia, and I told my buddy
Downhill about it. His name was Fiskey. I told Fusekew
(13:42):
about it. I said, and his dad worked at the
University of Georgia in the in the media department and
did a lot of stuff with Hanno Barbara and his
freaking dad stole that idea and sold.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
It to them. I guarantee you he did to come
from and.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
I, I mean, I will give you animals and suits.
I'll give you animals and suits and cars, animals and
suits in carts with a band named the Banana Splits. No, sir,
that's mine. That was mine. Mentioned stole from me. Man,
they stole from me.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
You know you need to contact a.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Returning yeah firm.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
You might have a solid.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Case I need. I need to call that guy stands
on the car, you know, and tell him, hey, I
banana splits and sober up, sir on it.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Okay, okay, I'm looking at a picture of it now.
This is exactly what I envisioned like nineteen sixties, seventies,
just absolute ask you looking up.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It was all me. I made up that entire thing.
I swear to God, I put up put a bible here,
and I will swear to you. And I went in
here and told him and he told his dad about it.
I know his dad because I tell you, I know
his dad this stuff like that, because they shot one
of those schools elms one time, you know, where Bobby
he treats Billy nice, you know, and then Betty is
(15:06):
picking up the books, you know, that kind of email's
educational films. That's what his dad ran, that department in
the University of Georgia. And I remember when we were
down there. He worked with Hannah Barbara who ended up
ended up buying that or putting that thing on Saturday morning.
And oh it souns a bit it stole from me.
Whom are they stole from me?
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Yeah, I'm telling you, I still I don't think it's
it's still not too late. To contact a good lawyer.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Yeah, I need to get that. Yeah image, I call
law firms to give him that story, and they'll go, yeah,
the lawter, the real lawyer's gonna call you back here
in a minute, hanging by the phone. Why are the
cops outside? Where's that Galway? Why's he got a net?
All right, that's enough of that. You're listening to the
Babel broad Experience, who apparently is a metal case on
(15:54):
the iHeart Network.
