Give us feedback I’ll read it myself!

A washed-out road after a brutal rainstorm kicks off a bigger question: how much of life is planning, and how much is just surviving whatever hits next? We start with pure Thursday-night chaos, local shoutouts, and the kind of unfiltered small-town Texas talk that jumps from Ruby’s to steak sauce to the realities of getting anything done when you’re tired and nobody wants to edit. 

Then the conversation gets real. We break down flash flooding and low water crossings, why a project can be built correctly and still get wrecked overnight, and why “turn around, don’t drown” is advice you can’t ignore. From there it’s a hard left into work and money: quitting a job, selling a truck fast through Carvana, and pouring that cash into restoring a classic Scout so it looks like 1978 again. If you’re into used trucks, car selling tips, classic 4x4 builds, or the weirdness of the truck market, you’ll feel this part. 

We also go straight at modern internet culture: summer posting, influencer links, and where “sharing” starts to look like oversharing. Finally, we land on AI productivity and how tools like ChatGPT can turn a vague message into step-by-step clarity faster than people who should already know the process. Subscribe for more, share this with a friend who loves Texas stories and tech talk, and leave a review telling us where AI has helped you the most.

SPEAKER_01

What's his last name, you know? I don't know. Are they from there? They live there. Okay. I just want to know if they're from. You know what I know now. Alright, well, I thought you knew everyone in the Tri-County area. Uh one day. One day. Uh, what about this rancho and Sino? I think someone was telling me about this. Oh, Baxter called me. He was on the road and he was like, Did you hear about Rancho Ceno? I'm like, I don't know where the fuck that is. He's like the culvert washed out. I'm like, oh, you're you're to make a white man talk to me. I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. What was that little cheese may saying? Which one? Baxter. He was like Oh, he's talking about uh what was he saying? About the the flood?

SPEAKER_00

So which what the kind of funny thing about it, or the literally the Rancho and Cena, they got, I want to say, somewhere around five inches of rain in a night or in within a 24-hour period the other day. Plus it's been raining. That is one of the low water crossings that we oh we when I say we decam construction recently completed. Beautiful pictures. We did a great job. We did what they asked us to do. And I can remember this growing up in Conkin, like every year the county would come and fix a low water crossing with the one that they call Seven Bluffs Crossing. And they would fix the road that would cross Bear Creek and then it would go to the low water crossing and across. And then every year it would flood and it would like wipe the road out. But basically it's like the water's a yeah, the water's super powerful and like Mother Nature. There the like there's all there's a lot of different ways to skin the cat, and it just gets more expensive and more expensive and more expensive. And anyways, from an optic standpoint, there's really nothing worse than when you're the contractor and like you literally drive off the job, yeah, it ranks five inches, and half of your job is like washed away. Yeah, it is kind of bad. And so that was a bummer. And uh I wanna I I'm pretty grateful for the the county and the people in it. It's like one the first thing we did is we used to went out there and just cleaned some shit up ourselves. Uh, because and it needed to be done, and we wanted to see what happened too. Uh, but the county was pretty pretty straight up about like these guys did a great job building what we asked them to build. It's just Mother Nature is Mother Nature got the best of it. She's a bitch sometimes. And uh we're gonna do it again. We've got two more to do, and they're gonna change the engineering a little bit on these crossings. And uh, I don't know, we're we don't know what they're gonna ask us to do to them yet.

SPEAKER_01

But that Army Corps Engineers, bud.

SPEAKER_00

But the you see you see this with all kinds of roads and bridges. Like if you get enough rain or whatever, like it ain't nothing safe.

SPEAKER_01

One of my sisters' fri uh friends, somebody, she she's the one who died in San Tony the other day um in that flood over by in Bandera. Turn around, don't drown. Dude, turn around. No joke. Oh, even though I I it was flooding the other day and I went right through it.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but just roll your windows down too.

SPEAKER_01

So roll your windows down or like crack your door.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I think that doesn't help. I think it that water just pushes you in a challenge.

SPEAKER_00

Open your open your moon revivia go on.

SPEAKER_01

Did you say open your mouth and start drinking? Uh moon. Remember just sit, imagine just sitting on top of your car. You're like, there's a 90% chance I'm gonna die tonight.

I I signed up to drive a truck not to be on uh the real world. Uh but they've been calling me, they were like, come on back. It's it's still it's not too late, you can still come back.

SPEAKER_01

So I did that, and I went the next day I went to Carvana, sold it, and now tomorrow I'm taking my scout to San Antonio, and I'm gonna say, I want this whole motherfucker, I want it to look like 1978 all over again.

SPEAKER_00

And he said, You don't you don't want it, and wouldn't it's not what you have? I said, Okay, and so tell me about it. And he told me what it was, and it's like a 2022 with like 70,000

SPEAKER_00

At Carvana though, I was I did all this stuff, it took 10 minutes online. I went the next day. I was I sat in there for eight minutes, and that lady drove around. She's like, here's your check. Tell me how it all worked again. So I got on Carvana and I took and they were like, Do you have what is your model? And I kind of fucked up and told them I had like the more it was an XLT, but mine's an XL, it's an STX four-wheel drive. And I thought that was gonna hurt me, but I just did all that. I told them what it was, the mileage. I didn't have to take pictures or anything. And uh they're like, Alright, well, just come on in tomorrow if you want. Or you could schedule it for any time. So I went in and that lady's like, give me your keys, and I gave it to her, and she went in, looked at it like just a cursory, like once over, got in it, drove it like through the next exit, came back, and was like, You're good to go. It's gonna be in your bank account uh by tomorrow. And it was. Got my money today. That easy, easy peasy. Yeah, what a good deal. It's a good deal. Shout out.

SPEAKER_00

Every time uh these trucks are they're going. They're going. Oh, yeah. The market's getting squirrely again on the trucks, and the new ones are getting so much crap on them that I've actually seen a little bit of prices kind of rescinding a little bit, coming back a little bit on on some of the others. But it's like there's just uh there's just a lot of issues out there.

SPEAKER_01

A lot of issues. Mine's like mine's advanced, like it has all the sync and all that stuff, air apple card play or whatever, but it doesn't have all the little bells and whistles, the little tattle things, the little tattletale deals.

No, it's gonna have a guy with his whole family there, and they're staring at this creepy Talo Rico, and then like in rushes, Ken Paxton knocks him out of the way, and it's like the whole family's looking at him, and it'll say, vote for Ken Paxton. He'll only sleep with your wife, and the kids will go, We're safe. What do you think? I think it's a great idea.

SPEAKER_01

There are a lot of women in my peer group, which would be middle-aged women. Sure. And all of a sudden, it seems that there's an abundance of them in in swimwear that is not like risque. Not no, I wouldn't uh occasionally risky, but it's not like the Baywatch One Piece. Uh it's bikini. Yeah, it's more than that. And uh and then shout out them all for them. They're like they're on social media rocking rocking the goods or whatever. Are they showing their novels? Sometimes really a lot, yeah. I want to see this, and uh, and it's innocent, but then they're also like selling stuff. Like what? I mean the link, they're like, I know someone just like the the sunglasses, yeah. This shirt cute.

SPEAKER_00

He's just like, that you're still what is that?

SPEAKER_01

He was like, they don't tell me nothing, they don't tell me anything, and they just walked off.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_01

He never got um like Trumpy try to hijack his plane, did they?

SPEAKER_00

No.

SPEAKER_01

Thank God. No, yeah, they didn't. There's more and more like um people saying 9-11 was a conspiracy. I've seen a lot of that lately. Like they found that dude's passport on the ground. What's up with that? There's a lot of weird stuff out there.

SPEAKER_00

I know. You can watch like a three-hour conspiracy theory documentary. Yeah, it just could never stop. No. I just don't think people can like coordinate that that well. And whether it did happen or whether it didn't happen, the one thing we know for sure is Israel is behind what? It happened. Should I be the internet's racist?

SPEAKER_01

But are they a race? I guess they are, right? I guess so. They're from the Middle East, but they're white. I don't get it. You to you show me a they're not white. You know who's white? You. Me? Yeah, dude. You got that hair and that aura. Shout out. Shout out. Shout out.

Have you seen all the videos of the Europeans and the Japanese people in America just living it up being fat at restaurants? But it's wholesome and it I think it's bringing us together as a as a nation.

SPEAKER_01

I don't I don't like it because I think they're trying too hard to make us do that. But I saw the guy who he went to back to England and he went to water. He I think he brought the spicy ketchup back to England with him. And his parents are like, we love this.

SPEAKER_00

I saw a guy review canes that came over from the UK. Really? And he said it's fresh, but it's absolute shit.

SPEAKER_01

Really? Fuck canes. I hate canes. Should I have that cane sauce? That sauce is good, but I think I hate them too. Dude, fuck canes. I hate canes. Wait, if you if he had to choose between canes and another restaurant or uh another chicken place, um golden chick, which one would you go to?

SPEAKER_00

Um I'd probably go to Golden Chick.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

If Golden Chick had cane sauce, it would be six times better than cane's.

SPEAKER_01

If Bush's had cane sauce, they'd be number one in the nation.

SPEAKER_00

Imagine Dippinite Gizzard and some cane sauce.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, shout out. Remember in high school, some girls like, I go to uh McDonald's, I go to Sonic for the burger, and then I go McDonald's for the fries.

SPEAKER_00

It had no like a lid on it. Did she grab it without a glove?

SPEAKER_01

No, she had a glove, but I'm like, you can just smell my piss. That's okay with you. And I guess it was because it was right in front of her face.

SPEAKER_00

Everybody should eat asparagus before they do that, just for laughs, just for jokes.

SPEAKER_01

But shout out those people who do that because they're just like it's like they're so nonchalant about it. They're just like, it's just piss.

SPEAKER_00

It's just piss.

SPEAKER_01

For me, it's like, I don't know, I'm not, I would never smell your piss. That's what I'm that's the point of that. Did you pass? Yeah, I should have. I don't know. Are you worried? No. I'm not worried. I don't do drugs. Uh I have too much stuff going on. Yeah. Well, I don't have a stroke.

I get one each, but I usually just only use one ketchup.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, what my deal is I get the spicy ketchup and I put it a two on my burger, and then I use two for my fries.

SPEAKER_00

I think Whataburger gets a lot of wasted ketchup.

SPEAKER_01

I think every restaurant does.

SPEAKER_00

But I I hate those restaurants where they have it on like a keg dispenser. You squish it down.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

It's always out when I get my turn. Really? Yeah, it pisses me off. Or there's some like little gremlin fucking foil-mouthed kid in front of me that squirts it everywhere, you know.

I saw one the other day, it was like the guy and the girl, and they're like behind the bouquet and they're like pretending to kiss.

SPEAKER_00

What the fuck is that? It's a prom.

SPEAKER_01

This is not my idea. But black people do the prom like they overdo it because they're not getting married anymore, and that's like a substitute for marriage. What do you think about that?

SPEAKER_00

I mean, I think that's something on the internet, but I'm but doesn't it kind of make sense? Yeah. I think it could be for a lot of a lot of people because they just like people aren't doing a lot of things that are traditional. The world's changing.

AI Fixes Work That People Botch

SPEAKER_00

I had I asked two people in my office the other day to do something for me. And they did it wrong. Nice. First, they did something and like handed me a piece of paper.

Right from a I was like, okay, so I've overcome this, then I put it into a spreadsheet and I sent it back to them. I said, do do this, this, and this. And they like did it wrong and sent it back to me. But like they did it, but they did it wrong and sent it back to me. And I was about to get up and go in and explain what I wanted to do, and I was like, you know what? I could explain this to the machine without it asking me a question, and it's gonna do it better. And I did it, and I realized I was like, I think I don't need these two people.

SPEAKER_01

The exact same thing happened to me yesterday. Really? And it was a thing with my new job. But are you done talking? Yeah. They were like, uh, we need to have you authorize this thing on this website. We're not gonna tell you what the website is. Um, it's in this vague kind of thing. Uh, we need you to log in.

It was done in three minutes, and the and the person on the other one's thank you, exactly what I wanted.

SPEAKER_01

I was like, how the fuck did that? I told my dad, I'm like, this is what happened. He's like, that's crazy.

SPEAKER_00

It's it is insane. And I and I'm not saying like I'm not saying, oh, we need to replace these people, but it's just like, oh, what I need to do is is ask the machine for what to make what exactly what I'm looking for, and then give it to them and say, This is what I'm expect you to to keep up or to to make. Uh and it is really crazy that there are a lot of people, and I'm I'm barely grasped, like you could take everything I know about computers and AI, and you could shove it up a gnat's ass, and there'd still be room for a bowling ball. And there's a lot of people that are older than me that they're they they can't even talk to the machine.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I was my dad I'm like, Yeah, Chat GP's like, no, you don't need it.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and he looked at you like you're a moron. Yeah, and I'm like, no idiot.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that is him. But like I did all that because I was avoiding to talking to this person, not because I didn't want to, it's because I didn't want to look stupid or like get or I knew they were busy, so I didn't want to interrupt them. Yeah, so I just asked Chat GTP and they laid it all out and I sent it to whoever, and they're like, Thank you, thank you. That's great. And I was like, Well, that made my life a lot easier. Yeah, it was awesome.

SPEAKER_00

Sometimes I feel like like I could just sit in the office and start taking Adderall and just hang out with like two AI screens and like get like you would probably have a great night.

SPEAKER_01

Half the shit done. People sit there, I've known people who say that they know people who just talk to that thing all night.

SPEAKER_00

Dude, I had lunch with this guy uh who's CEO of a company in San Antonio, and he said that in the afternoon from like 1:30 to 4:30 or something, he said, I close my door, and everybody in my office thinks that's when I'm scheduling my calls because I just have it blocked out on my calendar for calls.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

He was like, but what I'm really doing is I have my earbuds in and I'm and I'm talking to ChatGPT getting all my stuff done. Or to AI, and I was like, Will you talk to it? He was like, Yeah. He's like, I don't type it all. I tell it, I talk to it. I was like, shit, I don't do it. You don't talk to it? I don't do it. I tried it, it's weird. I've only said hey Siri like once in my life. I say it all the time. Yeah, good. Hey Siri. My my machine don't even talk back. It didn't even give a bubble.

SPEAKER_01

Um you don't talk Hey query. Oh, hey. I would talk to Chat GBT for about five minutes one time. Oh it was weird. I I shut it off.

SPEAKER_00

What's it? Did you ever watch that movie where the guy's dating the AI or whatever?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, um him? No, her. Yeah. Uh it was okay. Shino Joaquin uh Phoenix. Is he still alive or did he die? Now's his brother.

unknown

He died.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, Shannon River. What do you die like some fucking George Floyd deal? I think so. These drugs, dude, they'll get you.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Fentanyl. Fent fentan. I saw an Indian guy smoking fentanyl in a bus in LA. Unfazed. And that guy was like, quit.

SPEAKER_00

And he was like, fuck you. Wash it down with a glass of Nile River water. Oof. Ganges, maybe.

SPEAKER_01

We need to go to India and invade their fucking country. How about that? Ooh. Give them a taste of the old South Texas. Uh the only good thing about kids. You rewrote that twice?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I don't know. The machine did it. But I want to tell you, I've come up with another idea for a movie.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I was reading this the other night. Was it last night? It was funny.

SPEAKER_00

But Burt Reynolds is not in this one. It's not a Burt Reynolds remake, but it is a remake.

A Dark Parent Trap Movie Pitch

SPEAKER_00

Was he in the parent trap?

SPEAKER_01

But it has a new spin.

SPEAKER_00

Do what?

SPEAKER_01

He wasn't in the parent trap. That was Randy Quaid.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. Oh. Who isn't it? But you're you're familiar with the Parent Trap movies.

SPEAKER_01

I just named the fucking actor. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. They've made a couple of them. Okay. I want a new version of The Parent Trap. But the two parents are like widowed parents. And uh they have like they basically got like one, they got like a blended family, but they're the only parent. Like, so they have like some stepkids and like maybe one of their regular kids or whatever. And they're and they just realize like these kids are really holding them back. And so that's living their brother. So the single these two single parents like meet at like a vacation resort and they're just complaining about how like these kids are just weighing them down and stuff. Yeah. And the parents decide that they're going to eliminate the children. Okay. And then they start taking them on wild adventures, like swimming with sharks, but it's like incredibly like there's the shark cage isn't there. They're just free swimming. Uh, and then it's like uh take home Easter egg hunting in a Vietnamese minefield. Uh huh.

SPEAKER_01

Go bungee jumping in South America.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but you go bungee jumping with one of those tribes where they just tie up reeds or whatever, and the parents get like big insurance policies on the kids, but then they like they're having a great time and it's adventure, and like at the end, like the parents don't really hate them and they're just like, All right, go to boarding school, we'll see y'all at Christmas.

SPEAKER_01

We could ask Chat GPT to make that. Yeah. We should do that. Make a trailer. We could. How do you make a trailer? I've seen people do it. I don't know how to do it. I'm gonna find out.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, you have the bungee jump. I I just thought of that. That's funny. Oh well, I spent where's wood. Have you heard of Wood Black 22? And is that named after the founder of Uvaldi?

SPEAKER_00

Where is it now? It used to be over here at the Is it not there anymore?

SPEAKER_01

I think they moved it because it's over by the post office, I think.

SPEAKER_00

Uh, I heard that too.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I think I looked it up on Google Maps.

SPEAKER_00

Somebody told me for that bar at so there used to be two hotel bars. So like Wood Black for a little bit was in the old N Uvalde or Hotel 6 now, whatever the hell it is. And then Lunkers used to be in what's now the Hotel Isabella or whatever that is. And both of them used to have a bar in them. And as to my knowledge, neither one of them has anything in them. No bar, no restaurant.

SPEAKER_01

I thought you need a bar and hotel to go get fucking drunk and be hung over the next day.

SPEAKER_00

I agree. Yeah. Apparently, it was told to me that the the bar restaurant space or the rest bar space in both of those that they're asking for rent, like over $5,000 a month, more I want to say like six or seven thousand dollars a month. You would think like you might just like tell someone like I'm gonna give you six months for free, and then you're like stop because they've been empty for a long ass time. You're getting zero.

SPEAKER_01

Dude, you get like uh you get at least five thousand a night, like on a good Thursday, on Thirsty Thursday every Thirsty Thursday at Lunkers. Everyone's buying sh pictures of fucking lemon drops. And just smoking cigs like it's the last day on earth. Yeah. Yeah, dude. We should go back to that. Well, you should that's your next venture. Open a bar. Open a bar. Yeah. Yeah.
