Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hey, folks, Bamon Brown from the Bam and Brown Experience, and.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
We appreciate you listening.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
The podcast starts now and goes for ten to fifteen minutes.

Speaker 2 (00:11):

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Twelve minutes, give us a listen every chance you get,
we appreciate it. Tell your friends we don't market is
or advertise it, but in fact you don't have to
listen to commercials.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
It's just bullshit that I do with my buddy. That's
exactly what it is. No script, no planning, and you
can tell we lose to it.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
But my buddy, Puma, the Big Puma, the Big Cat
down in San Antonio, has the Sports Cave show.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
And your podcast has direction and a real podcast. It's
a real deal. How do I get that?

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Well, we start out with structure and direction, but too
often it devolves into screaming at each other about how
bad the cowboys are. We'll get to that in the fall.
But now, anywhere anywhere you get your podcast, just search
for the Sport Cave with the Biggest Puma. Hop in,

(01:03):
join the crew and I and we appreciate your support.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
What's the joke? What was?

Speaker 1 (01:08):
What is Dak Prescott and Billy Graham have in common.
Both of them can get a stadium full of people
to stand up, yell Jesus Christ.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
You can you can never.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
You can never give me more. You can never give
me too many cowboys jokes because they are so perpetually
all right.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
So I saw a story and it made me have
a confession. Now I may have done this before, I
don't think I have, so don't stop me if you
hear this, because this is I want to get this
off by. So there was a lady that flew to
Puerto Rico and she took her her parrot with her
on the flight down the Puerto Rico emotional support parrot.

(01:51):
Emotional support parrot. I don't know the parrot's name. I
didn't find it anywhere, but when she got ready to leave,
they wouldn't let her bring it back. You can't bring animal,
I guess, back into the country if unless you fill
out proper forms and you know, and make sure it
doesn't have all kinds of diseases.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
I guess.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
So I don't know what happened there, but uh, anyway,
she's stuck in Puerto Rico with her parrot, which was
a that's pretty much as a Willie song, wasn't it for.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Anyway? That reminded me of my confession.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
So I am seed concert at Nutty Brown. Uh up here,
the Nutty Brown Club is you know, it's a cafe
for a long time, and then it was just an
outdoor event center.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Uh it's near my house.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
So I am Seed every concert for years and years
and years. Now you'd get a good concert. Uh you'd
have three bands, and this was good because you'd have
like a featured act. I mean, I don't know, Dwight
yoakum pretty common. We always had Dwight every year. Then
you had an opener that kind of everybody knew, you know,
and and was local maybe local guys, right. Kevin Fowl

(03:00):
did a lot of them, of course. Kevin's oh he's
he's probably as good as as big as.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
Uh uh you know uh White, I mean the same
kind deal.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
But he would come and just in and open sometimes
for people because he lived close to it. He lived
in Wimberley and this is just outside of just halfway
between dripping in uh Wimberley.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
And then uh you know, uh he had Uh Paul
Simon bought his ranch down there in Wimberley.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Did you know that? Did he not?

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah, I'll stop to the confession at a minute, but I
stopped to tell you the story.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
I saw him at the cafe.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
And I and the word he got out that Paul
Simon had had bought this bought this ranch from him
and he had stayed two days, him and his wife
stayed two days with with the fowler and his wife.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
And I said, what what was it like? And he
you know.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Because I said, that's a that's a big star for
any of us. Yeah, and he said, you know, Kevin's
been around. I know he knows major stars everywhere. But
he said, I'm telling you, dude, it was surreal. I
kept going, guy, I did.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Bridge over Trouble Water, you know I did.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
He's amazing, you know, it was just uh he said,
he's so nice and so cool. And then I was
at lunch one day and I'm a lady from the
Chamber of Commerce was here.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
This wasn't dripping.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
And she told me she said, uh, I said, well,
what's your there's your day going? And she said, I
had Paul Simon come in earlier from the chamber just
wanted to check in on something. And then he backed
into our sign when he left, because he's about eighty
five or ninety now, I had like an old not
backed into the sign, you know, and drove off, you know.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
So he said, we we got it fix.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
Somebody thinking about Paul Simon of you know, New York
City fame hanging out in Wimberley.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Is liberally on a ranch.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yeah, it's hard to wrap my head around.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
You know, who lives in Dripping right now because they're
shooting a movie here.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Woody Harrison lives in Dripping's rings right now.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Okay, yeah, he moved to him and him and Matthew
are doing a movie. I think it might be one
of those true detectives, another true detective. That's the rumor
i'd heard, but I haven't. I haven't confirmed that with anybody,
but wood He is here.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
He was at the AGIB the other day.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
Somebody saw him in the isle from the AGV So
that was kind of funny see Woody in there, you know,
buying some you know, buying some bread and tide and stuff.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
My hometown is about an hour south of d f W.
But we have you know, we have a state park
with dinosaur tracks, We have fossil room. We have Rough
Creek Lodge where Troy Aikman would always stay. But you
would always when someone famous would come through town, it'd
be like, oh did you hear I saw Troy Aikman
at the Brookshires earlier today, and it's just that is

(05:45):
massive news in a small town.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, that is.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
I remember in Tarill where the BUCkies is. I was
standing there in the BUCkies and on a trip, was
going to old Miss see my daughter and em and
Smith walked in and you know, you just you can
see that smile from space. I mean, just the greatest,
you know, the nicest guy.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
And he gave me. He gave me a nod. You know,
I gave him a grand and I gave him a nod.
He's like, give me one back. I didn't want to
bother you.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
You know, it's all you ever need.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Yeah, because he's like, hey, you the man. You the man? Anyway,
oh my confession. All right. So they had a parrot.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
It was kind of the mascot of the Nutty Brown.
They called it the Nutty Brown Cafe, but that was
the Nutty Brown Events place, and that thing at whole
three thousand people. I mean, we've had that many people there.
So had some great shows there. Did it for years,
fifteen years.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
I think.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Anyway, they had this parrot there named named Nacho and
our Cheeto not Nacho Cheeto. There was another one named Nacho.
It was it was Cheeto. The parrots Cheeto's are in
the cage. Well, I get there for the opening bands
to MC the opening bands, and there's nobody there. I mean,
you know, they ain't they ain't coming till late. And
this is like six o'clock, you know. So I'm there, man,

(06:59):
you know. I intro band and I go up and
I'm standing there next to this parrot, Cheeto' parrot. Well,
after a while, I started, I don't know how to
edit this word. It is bad confession, and I did this.
But I taught Cheeto to say thank you, but not blank.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
But I taught him the full word. And it took
me almost two years.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
It was a long It was a long con.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
There was a concert all summer, so Cheeto didn't remember.
He was a terrible student. But finally he started repeating it.
I go, let's say screw you.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
We can say that. I think I go screw you,
and he goes rack screw you, and so.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
I'm sure the venue owners loved it.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
They had they were so mad because they wanted to
know who had done this and they couldn't figure it out.
And I would go, I bet it's a waiter got it,
you know.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
When I was like, you know, bus boy.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
Throwing shade on everybody, you know, I actually I actually
said it was Dwight did it.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
I actually blame blame Dwight. Dwy Oakham's up here and
talk of that parrot, I don't know, he's all hot
and everything. Yeah, So but it was me.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
I taught Cheeto the parrot how to play, you know,
how to say f you. And he, now, for what
it's worth, he nailed it. I mean, once he learned it,
it was part of his and so people would come
up and it was the hard part was getting him
to say when people would always say pretty bird, I
don't that seemed to be their thing. They go pretty bird,

(08:40):
and that's when he would say it back to him.
And that took me a long time to teach. Now,
so because I'd have an hour, you know, and it
was always, you know, these bands were playing, they didn't
have all the big music, and the big music come
I don't know, his poor ears. But anyway, I taught
him how to do that, and I swear to you
when the first time and then I would go up

(09:02):
to stand around and wait on people to do it,
you know, And the first time this lady went Brendy
Bird and he goes, I felt like I had invented something.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
You would you were like Edison watching the light bulb
for the first time ever. You remember you remember the movie, the.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
Movie Current Wars, Current Wars when when Wesley House goes,
what was it like? What was it like when the
when you had the you know, the eleven hour light bulb?
You know what, what did that feel like?

Speaker 2 (09:38):
You know? And Edison was telling her that's how it felt.
I was like I was. I felt like I had
invented the light bulb.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
When I taught a parent how to say f you
to just anyone.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
You feel like you have changed the course of human history.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
I was so proud of that.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
And I mean to think about how twisted that is,
the poor animal, you know, and the woman's expression.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
And of course I laughed as hard.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
I mean I really I laughed as hard as I've
ever laughed in my life. But that was a that
was two years and you know it, if you studied
for two years, you'd be halfway to a college degree.
I'd spent two years teaching a parent had a cuss.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Yeah you could.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
I think most grad school programs are two year programs
or or you can either get your masters, or you
can teach a parent to say the F word. Which
one's going to make your life better?

Speaker 1 (10:33):
It just and then every time I went after that,
for he lived for a couple three or more and
more years after that thing, and I was, I was
every time I'd go and stand by him. And when
he do it, I laughed as hard the last time
as I did the first time. And it's just terrible,
terrible to know that I did that but us too much.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
This reminds me of like when my uncle taught me
bad words. Yeah yeah, I would say on around the
the family and I would get in trouble and he
would just sit back and just smirk and laugh to himself,
like I was the parent in that situation, Like you
you had to be a proud uncle of the parent
while everyone else is so disappointed.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
And what was a joke about?

Speaker 1 (11:18):
The kid was around mom all morning long and all
the first couple of days of summer, and she said,
do you get get out of here? You need to
get they're building a house cross the street. Go over
and watch him build the house, you know, get just
get out of here. And he comes home and he's
dinner and he's in. He says, uh, what do you

(11:38):
What do you want for dinner? And he said, I
want some god damn potato. She's like, what ed?

Speaker 2 (11:46):
She said, where where do you learn that? He said, oh?

Speaker 1 (11:50):
And then he's she said, she said, don't you cuss
ever again.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
And Dad comes.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
In there and sits there, you know, and he's that
was your day and he said, he said, goddamn I
had to go over and watch and build a goddamn
house over there.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
And Dad's like, oh my god.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
And he goes, you go out right now and get
a switch, and the kid goes, you go get it.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
I ain't no fing electrician.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
There's also a version of that where he goes slaps
the grab on it and he goes, well, I don't know,
I don't want any goddamn potatoes.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
That's the brother or something I can't remember.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
This is why we need jokes at the end of
episodes and not the beginning.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah, I need, I need to. I'm confused on all.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
I mean, I know some terrible jokes, as you're well aware,
but I can't really you know, we can't say the
F word, like.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
We shouldn't have the womanes that actually make it onto
these episodes. Just imagine the ones that are sitting on
the colon floor.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
Oh that you can't say.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
Oh, they're all the great great too, Because that's my
favorite word to be on the radio in thirty seven years,
I never said it. That's because that's my favorite word
because I say it all the time. But that's awful,
that's awesome. That's the date the confession from that. And
then you know the parrot teaching the parrot to cuss
and then cussing yourself like that. That's just no class.
I got no class at all. But I got a

(13:11):
podcast and you're listening to it.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
So that's more of a reflection on you all than
it is for men. I think pums like, well, I'm
being paid to do that. I have to do this
in order to get my podcast.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
So that's another week. It's another week of a paycheck
right here.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
Yeah, that's all it is, chi ching, chi ching. Actually,
when Poom gets out. You can hear a cash res
of the ring when he gets on the on the podcast.
Now you're it in the background check chan cha jing
like you're buying milk and bread at the store. That's
probably a good time to end, you know, right now,
let's just get out of here while we're behind. It's
the Bama Brown Experience on the iHeart podcast Network.
