Speaker 1 (00:03):
Well, hello, you're listening to the Bama Brown Experience on
the iHeart podcast network along with The Big Puma, the
Big Cat. He has a sports cave out of San Antonio.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
How do we get that podcast, young man?
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Yeah, super easy, my friend, incredibly easy.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
We make it easy on you.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Anywhere you get your podcast, just go to that search
bar and type in the sports Cave with Biggest Puma.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
I have to have to start out with. I had
a skunk get under the house. Is there anything more
country than a skunk being under your house?
Speaker 4 (00:34):
That's pretty country? Yeah, that's pretty country.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
And I mean this guy smelled bad he got up
under there. I've got a pure and beam house that
I built myself, and I just there's one area where
I foamed it and in these guys, I guess raccoons
or whatever, they ate through the foam and so there's
a hole back there that the skunks can get in.
It's like having It's the whole house smelled like having
(00:58):
Willie Nelson living on my house.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Man, it smelled like skunk weedo for like two days.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Uh, anyway, we got It's funny because during the day
he's gone, he's out doing what ever.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Skunk's do.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
But at night he comes home and he's crawled in there.
But he's not in there anymore. He left, I guess
because of the cold. Even he's like, this house is
a cold and uh. And so he's gone now. But
if you ever want to get rid of him, the
way we got rid of him one time was the uh.
We got the mothballs from h GB and I had
drilled a hole through a cabinet, and so I had
(01:33):
a hole gold from the cabinet down into the under
the floor. And there's about a two foot area underneath
the house, you know, and you and I just and
I had a plug in there, and I pulled the
plug and I bomb these mothballs on him and then
stick it back in there. Of course, then your house
smells like mothballs for three days. But the skunks can't
take it. That's the only thing I found at worked.
I tried everything, didn't you You were telling me about
(01:56):
a you have here? Your skunks obeyed the law in
San Antoni, right, we have.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
We have surprisingly.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Abiding rodents and envarments in the neighborhood.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
I live, you know.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I throw a rock and hit the Alamodome parking lot
from my house here, and I mean we're smacked downtown
and you know usually I haven't had to deal with
a skunk yet in the house. But we we have
a a booming family of a postums. We're talking, you know,
three or four generations that that go underneath our househouse
(02:33):
is an old you know, it's aid bought from a
Sears catalog in the early nineteen hundreds. It's an old
here and beam house the same way, it's.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
A little house. I love this. I love the Boom's house.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Great great, uh, you know, great slice of of San
Antonio when it comes to you know, the old houses
here in the neighborhood. But like you said, along with that,
you deal with some varmints fairly routinely. And the other
couple of weeks ago, the roommate and I were driving
to dinner and you know where, it's just about dusk.
(03:07):
It's starting to get where. You know, your lights are on,
but it's not that dark, and we, you know, come
into an intersection.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Light turns red. We stop, and all of a sudden, as.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
We're sitting there still trying to decide what we're gonna
eat for dinner, I see a skunk waiting on the
side of the road at the crosswalk, and I.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Turned to stuff and I go, what.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Do you what do you think he's about to do?
It's sure enough. As I'm saying that, he the light
turns red. He goes trotting across the crosswalk as if
as if he was waiting just like a normal human
for the sign to say cross say it's safe to walk.
And I think, I you know, living here in the
(03:51):
neighborhood now seven almost eight years, it's it's amazing. You know,
I'm a country boy at heart, raised in a town
of less than.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Three thousand people.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
And you know, we've got a possum skunk, We've seen
a fox in the neighborhood.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
I had an owl last night.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
I had two owls in the neighborhood communicating with each
other hunting. So uh, Despite living smack dab in the
middle of downtown San Antonio, I feel like I get
just as much wildlife, if not more, than I had
growing up.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
We get a lot out here. We've had them all.
But that reminds me of my joke for the week.
What you were telling me just then. So this guy
sitting in the house and he hears this cat outside
on the fence round row row, and he puts the
window up and he goes scat and the cat goes.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Scooby doo, boop poop poop poopopo.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
I'm good God, good god.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
We had a great conversation about skunks going here and
then all.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Right, I'll make up for it with this.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
And I was at the race when this happened, because
I was thinking about Daytona.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Over the weekend last week ago.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
They had the Talladega race one time, and we were
at this race and somebody hated Bobby Allison so much,
who was from Alabama, by the way, but somebody hated
him so much that they threw a dead skunk in
a sack at his race car from the stands, and
they hit his car at two hundred miles an hour.
(05:24):
He had to get out of the car, They had
to pull it in the pit. To get out of the car,
they had to wash the windshield, wash the car off
with a brush and everything so he could get back
in and start driving again. Now that's his I don't
know much more than that for redneck, but that's as
redneck as it is. If you've thrown a skunk and
a stock car during a race. You may be the
all time redneck, be the trusted the rednecks.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
I'm not sure that can be topped.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
I mean I immediately think of you know, in hockey,
they throw the octopus on the ice in Detroit. In Nashville,
they the people will you know, strap a catfish, uh,
you know, wrapped catfish under their clothes so they can
throw it onto the ice at the National Presator's game.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
But a skunk and a bag, I don't think that
can be topped.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
It was and he and they they got the guy
and he said, yeah, I hate Bobby Allison.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
That's why I did that. So and he got him.
What a shot, though, I mean.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Really think about this car's going two hundred miles an
hour and you're timing it.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I mean, that's pretty amazing, man.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
The redneck math involved.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
I mean, that is some calculus level calculations to all right,
it's traveling at a two hundred and seven miles an hour,
I'm at a forty five degree angle.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
I'm throwing.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
I've got to throw, you know, five seconds before he's
actually gonna cry out. That is again, we might have
our redneck of my lifetime, right, there that that's gonna
be tough to talk.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Tough to top. That's a good one to get out on.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
You're listening to the Bama Brown experience on the iHeart
podcast along with the Big Puma, and you can get
the Sports Cave. In fact, you can get it anywhere
for podcasts and go listen to it if you dig sports.
