Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hi, everybody, Mamma Brown with you. Along with my man Crime,
whom the Big Cat as we like to call him.
He has a sports game and that podcast, number one
sports podcast in the whole state of Texas. He is
the He is the man. He's the Texas Tech. You're
gonna like this, He's the Texas Tech a sports radio.
(00:23):
Anybody's got to say that.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
At least at least since Michael Crabtree was paying tuition.
It's it's wild.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Right they had those weather helmets or whatever.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Yeah, it's uh, it's crazy to think that you might
end up seeing Texas Tech versus Texas A and M
college football playoff game.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Would that not be just? I would love that I
can go watch that with all my uteeth fans I have.
Of course, every commercial though, is Archie Manning selling sunglasses
and canes chicken, and I mean racking that cash up.
And it's a good thing. He made all m deals
(01:07):
before he started a quarterback.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Minor detail. Minor minor detail there when it's matching it
up with the performances. Look, it's it's still come on,
it's still way early. We're not we're not getting up
on March yet.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
And who could live up to that anyway. I mean,
you know, how could you live up to that? So
you never could?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
But go back and watch go back and watch Peyton,
Uh that first year at Tennessee. Go watch Eli that
first year at ole Miss. It wasn't just handed to
them either. I think would be would be a virtue here.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
But then they didn't get million dollars in cash for
endorsements for them. Again, minor detail. I get to I
get to throw rocks at somebody when i'm a you know,
I'm an influencer and you're an influencer. We get paid,
but we had to be successful in our shows. Nobody
just come in there and said, I know, y'all are
like tenth in the ratings and you're not doing very well,
but here's a bunch of endorsements. It didn't happen that way,
(02:02):
and we worked for it, and I had to for years,
and I'd love it.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
I'm not jealous, though, because I would still love for
that time. I'm holding out hope that that does someday
happen for me.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
I went through a bunch of them, man, over the years,
but they were mostly my shows had to be number
one or number two. You know every week, some guy
I remember I had a boss. He said, fat funny
rednecks or diamond doesn't We can go out here in
the street behind five of those right now, just go
to We wouldn't even have to get in the car.
He's just walking down Congress. I here, fat funny redneck guy.
(02:38):
And we'd call them Bama because we owned the name,
because we just pulled you out. But another Bama in there.
People wouldn't even know the difference. That's the kind of
I said, you need to work on your renewed Rockney speech, coach, because.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Yeah, you're not really motivating me, motivating me at all,
you know.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
And anyway, that's just that was funny up with him.
I had another one, you know, when clear Channel stock
was going through the roof. I had a great boss
of mine and we're in a meeting fighting like cats
and dogs. I mean, everybody was in we're fighting, and
all of a sudden he reaches down and pulls a
newspaper up and opens a newspaper, and I got I'm
(03:17):
sitting there there. I go, what are you doing? Dad?
And he goes, I'm checking the stock price to see
if I still need to sit through this meeting today.
Dollar amount, I'm out of there. So he was clear
Channel's oldest employee and retired with fifty million dollars. Oh yeah,
he did well, but it was from stock. They bonuses
(03:39):
they give him, you know, because he was with the
company for I don't know fifty years or some crazy amount.
I am see his retirement party. Good guy. By the way.
All right, you want a bonehead, I'll give you the
bonehead deal. Let's see we did the one. Didn't we already?
Or did we? I don't know. Uh, here's Austin Casani.
Austin tried to burglarize home there. Uh now this was
(04:02):
I think this was in near Miami. Uh. The problem
is the home he picked was Henny Rojas's home, who
is a professional m m A fighter. Oh no, When
neighbors called, they heard the screaming. The police got there
and rescued Austin. It wasn't it wasn't. It wasn't Line Rojas.
(04:25):
It needed rescuing. It was us. In the mug shot,
if you get a chance, look up Austin. He he
just looks like one big bruise. His old faces beat
to just just beat the ship. There's no other way around,
so burglarizing a h M M A fighter And then
I saw also a video one time if a guy
a football game and he was that one. Yeah look
(04:49):
at that mug shot. You just saw it.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
My god, he gotsani, Yeah, looked at it.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Lord Austin picked the wrong house to bird.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
You know the only thing that would have made this
worse is if it, uh, if it had been a
female MMA fighter, because like that would be We did
one of those remembers here of where you know, you're burglarizing,
your breaking into someone's house, and uh, not only are
you about to get beat up for your mugshot, but
it's also going to be a woman that whips your
(05:21):
ass right before you go to jail.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
You never live that down. He never absolutely. You know,
I had a little person that threatened me one time
on the radio because we did okay, I'll say, I
don't think we earned it. We earned it. I guess.
We had half Farley's Midget Boys choir doing Christmas carols
and all we did was just speed up Christmas tunes.
(05:44):
You know, I mean, you talk about a throwaway bit.
But this guy calls in and he is livid and
he's he's a midget. He's a little guy, and it
it escalated and I said, well, you bring your midget
has down here and I'll kick the crap out of you.
And he goes, I'll be down there in two hours.
And my partner Bow at the time, it was the
Bow and Bama show Bo said, I've got to call
(06:05):
thirty six because we got to get this on. And
then I thought about it. Either way, you lose. Okay,
So you beat up a midget and everybody's like, oh
come on, man, are worse? Bidget kicks your ass. You
never you could invent uranium. It's like Bama Brown and
mined that uranium. No, he's beat up by that minche
(06:27):
at that time that.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Amma Brown finds the cure for cancer. Oh wait, you
mean the guy that got whipped by the little.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Person and that that's happened. I told you the other
midget story, didn't I about the Taco bell? Did I
ever tell you that? Oh this is out.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
This sounds like a new one.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Totally true story. I swear. I So there was a
little person, and I respect everybody. I don't you know me, man?
I mean, I'm the biggest dufist in the world. So,
but there was a short person that worked at Taco
Bell and he was the meanest person in the world,
(07:02):
I mean, unfriendly, just caustic as he talked to you
and hand you your order, you know. And so I
went on the radio. This was on cavet and I
went on there and I started talking about it. I said,
this Mitchet there's in dripping Springs, right, I said, this
Mitchet is the dripping springs Taco Bell. Uh. I said,
he's just mean. And so I ordered Taco Bell a
(07:23):
couple of weeks later, and I meant to drive through
with them, swear to God, and this guy goes, hey,
what's your name? And I go I said Bama Brown.
And it kind of leads back and goes, I don't
remember his name. I think it was Willie, but I'm
not sure. He goes will He I said, DJ was
talking shit about you, and that that little effort came
through the window in his Taco Bell apron and was
(07:47):
and was reaching for me. And he was like, what
do about me? And I said, I said yeah, And
I made a fish but and I said, thank you
for me taking my point, you know. Boom, I mean
he was he came through the window, and so it
reminded me. You remember he was an angry, angry dwarf,
(08:10):
you know, remember from from uh, what's his name? Shit?
The TV movie Christmas Movie, you know. So I was
gonna put you and I didn't, and I said it's
because you are mean, and he went what? And I said,
you're mean, You're mean as hell. I said, you're you're
rude and you're mean and you're caustic. He stepped back.
(08:31):
I'm not kidding, and he's looking at me and he said, man,
I'm sorry. I mean, he like changed one hundred percent.
He said, I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to. I
didn't know I was doing that.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I said, who's the story has a good ending?
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Yeah, And so I said, well, I'm sorry I assaulted Jeshua.
I've never done that. It's just you know, and he goes, no, no, man,
I appreciate it. And from then on when I pulled up,
he would bam and wave and ate all the way
at me. And know, I'm sure they're spitting h money.
They wouldn't do that. Of course, with that, you know
I deserved it. Probably you would hope that's not the case, right,
(09:06):
But he was he came through that I'll never forget.
It was just like Elf when he came down at table,
you know, so I did anyway, said are we too long?
Let's do you want to do one more real quick?
(09:26):
And then all right, uh, here's Spencer Eldon. Spencer Uh oh,
you know who he is in Nirvana's ninety one album.
Remember the naked baby that was swimming on the cover
to him a few times? That was Spencer Elden. He
sued him for child pornography. So the Nirvana he lost,
he just lost. Last week. They had the final deal
(09:47):
and they said, they said, you've been telling everybody for
years you were the baby on the cover, So when
you're bragging about it, you don't get to all of
a sudden have an emotional situation.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
So yeah, it's hard to show emotional distress cause by
the clout that you've been living your whole life off of.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
You should have just you know, give me a little
bit of cash and all going about my business. But whatever,
All right, thank y'all for listening. I'm sorry, I said, midget,
if you're a midget, apologized
