47 Minutes of Willie in His Boss Man Era
I mean these guys just don’t take it seriously, you know, and that’s part of the growing business what I’ve had to deal with. Well, that’s where I think I can help you, Willie. The key to it all is evaluating every avenue of production and try to make things flow together. Since Duck Commander’s business is booming, I brought in a business [music] consultant to help us MAXIMIZE OUR EFFICIENCY.
AND HE’S GOING TO HAVE HIS hands full with this bunch of slappies. What are y’all doing? We’re taking a break cuz it’s raining. And we’re inside, you idiot. When it’s raining, people that work outside take a break. not working outside, you’re working inside. I’m for equal opportunity for everybody. Yeah.
Look, Willie, it’s not rocket science. We’re on a rain break. You give it a few minutes, the storm will pass, then we’ll go back to work. This is Dickie. He’s a business consultant. He’s going to help us out with some ideas. to take a man seriously with the name Dickie. Richard’s here to make us more efficient. We’re going to be more productive. Efficient at what? Working.
Working? We’re trying to make this business better. When is Willie going to learn that we are operating under maximum efficiency? This thing’s over. There’s changes are coming, son. You know when somebody says, “Do your best.” This is the best we got. You’re finished. Go back to work. Let’s see how you take a dunk at it.
Let’s see you take a dunk at it. He’s a natural soccer man. The boy’s got a pretty good leg. Look at this. Look at this. Look at this. It’s too much. Look at it. [laughter] Now what am I going to do? Usually I bring my hot boudin to the church potluck dinner and they [music] stand in line for them. It’s supposed to be a hundred people.
But they didn’t eat. I’ve never had such a problem getting people to eat my boudin. Must be skinny girls. All they’re worried about is if they gain an ounce. You know, I [music] think you could take a couple of these trays. No. You need sausage, honey. Well, the reason y’all had all that boudin left is skinny girls, they don’t eat boudins. I ate everything.
I need 4 or 5 lb of boudin in one sitting just about. It literally is better than sex when you’re my age. You like a good healthy woman like me, don’t you? Hey. I like a woman got a little meat on her bones. Sex or boudin, honey? Uh, let’s go with boudin. Hey, good call. Well, what are you going to do? Give it away? Got to do something.
This is ridiculous. I mean, my friend has an old truck that we could serve it out What is it? An 18-wheeler or some kind of big rig or what? No, it was an ice cream truck that she converted to sell food out of. It’s perfect. I like it. I like it. Like it. There you go. I have one question. I know this is the crazy question.
Who going to drive the truck? I’m thinking about [music] you. So, what I get out of this deal? All the boudin you can eat and I might even [music] give you some kisses later. What about that? Well, that might work right there. One of one of them backroom meetings. I like it, Miss Kay. [music] Thank you. I’ll get my money’s worth when this day is over.
We’re fixed to bring Duck Commander and Willie to their knees. Mhm. Look at there. Jep, that’s not how you spell sandwich. We’re trying to come together, big and small, dumb and smart. Give me my [music] sandwich. Sandwich. Mainly dumb. These uniforms suck. That’s right. We’re sticking this [music] out because Willie’s wrong.
I don’t know, but I’ve been told I don’t know, but I’ve been told These uniforms suck. There ain’t no doubt about it. These [laughter] uniforms [laughter] What I’d rather do is go hunting in protest, but I’m trying to teach Willie a lesson. I do not submit to stupidity. What do you want anyway? Uh, no.
Not what do they want, what do we want? Feel it, Miss Kay. Hey. Hey, hey, hey. [laughter] Check this out. Oh my goodness. Look at that. Boudin bus. That is amazing. You like these? I love them. Don’t you love them? Oh, I’m all fired [music] up. At 50, I’d have said, “No, you ain’t getting me on no food truck.
” Boy, this is a pretty smashy looking little rig here. Oh my goodness. But at 66, okay, let’s go riding on the food truck. Pretty cool. My manhood is not gone yet, but the food truck, you’re going [music] that way. Citizens of Monroe, Miss Kay’s boudin, get it while it last. I’m not a unique, but I’m getting close. Everything is perfect.
Let’s go grab a thing and grab your shirt. Hey, let’s go with it. Go for it. it. Come on, Bubba. You can go with us. They may take our basketball goal. Yeah. They may take our paycheck. Already done it. But they’ll never take our freedom. PEOPLE ARE HONKING. We got our signs. We’re getting our message out.
I feel like I’m making a difference in this world. I’m ready to fight now. Hey, that makes two of them. [laughter] Uh, this is stupid. Your policies are stupid. Mhm. Hey, this ain’t funny. Get your butt back to work. Work, work, work. Nobody takes time to stop and smell the roses. Hey, so Jack, we’re smelling the roses.
I’m going to tell [music] you from personal experience. One time I was smelling roses, a big bumblebee stung me on the nose. So, hey, from then on Look here. You can smell the roses, but hey, smell them quick. A bumblebee is liable to nail you. Here’s the deal. Let’s call a truce. You ready to call the uniform idea? No.
You going to put my rim back on the basketball goal? No. You going to fire the business consultant? Nope. Forget it. Hit the road, Jack. Hey. And don’t come back no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, Jack. Well, that’s two Jacks in that statement. I’ll have your place by the end of the day. Good luck on that.
Call you one last time, Scotty kids. You ain’t getting a paycheck, boys. I’m the [music] boss. What I say goes. No questions asked. I lay down the law. I am the law. You look like the redneck Don Johnson to me. Hit the road, Jack. Dang it. What’s wrong? You need a key? Houston, Houston, we have a problem. I really got to put a handle on that door.
The walk of shame. Cool inside, suckers. Come on. This will be a fun venture today. Is this better than a day at the land? No. Well, boudin buggy coming down the [music] road. All right. I see some kids right here, Kay. You might make a sale right here. My job and Miss Kay’s job is to enlighten [music] the yuppie world.
Boudin has come to the subdivision. Ice cream. Ice cream. Ice cream. Ice cream. No ice cream, boudin. Boudin. The yuppie kids don’t know what boudin is. What’s in it? It’s hog guts full of rice and some seasoning. Get you some of them. These days, show the yuppie kids the hog liver and they’re like, “Whoa.
” Hey, it’s hot, it’s fast, it’s cheap. Skinny one’s in the front, fat one’s in the back. Let’s go. No. I want ice cream. The yuppie kids ain’t hungry enough. That’s their problem. Yuppie kids are missing out and don’t even know it. Move on, nerds. Moving on, yuppie kids. Willie. Hey. What are you doing? I’m on fire.
You can’t put all these duck calls together by yourself. I am putting all these duck calls together by myself. I’m not going to let these idiots stop production. That’s exactly what they want to happen. Seriously? [music] All I need to do is show them I can build duck calls without them and they’ll come crawling back. Uh, that’s not what it’s supposed to sound like.
Huh? That’s something. Hm. That’s not a duck. I’m fine. I am fine as wine. Seriously? Eggs and toast, baby. What happened to the bacon? I was thinking you might need to lay off the bacon a little bit. There ain’t nothing wrong with a little bacon. There’s something wrong with this. What? The cell phone bill.
One Miss Sadie Robertson $328. sure that’s just hers? 9,300 text messages. No way. Get her down here. Sadie. That’s ridiculous. [music] How do you even text that many times? 9,300 text messages? I’m surprised the girl still has thumbs on her hand. Sadie. Morning. Put your phone down, please. I’ve got the cell phone bill here. Mhm.
It’s telling me It’s telling me that Oh. You owe $328. I’m fixing to throw it in the garbage. Seriously? No, no, no, no, no, no. You sent 9,300 text messages in a month. Is that bad? That’s like, what? Three times normal? It’s a bomb. At least. $328 for texting? This girl needs to learn the value of the dollar before somebody sells her some magical beans.
Hand your phone over. You and your phone. Sadie’s $328 from the cell phone. You know what? Oh, good night. I’m sending her down to Phil and Kay. You’re going to go down there and help them out. Why? If anybody can appreciate no cell phones, it’s those two. You and Mom pep all time. Text me when you’re done.
Oh, seriously. See, this is far more fun than fooling with this silly phone. Don’t you think? I guess. You got to learn all the secrets of the trade because you know what? The way to a man’s heart through his stomach. But sometime when I give Phil big rewards, then it might even lead to, you know, honeymoon time. Oh.
If Phil comes in and sees me with a little flour and mess on my [music] apron, there’s nothing gets him turned on more than that. You want to talk about that, don’t you? No, I do not sleep. [laughter] If Sadie can master [music] making these muffins, there’s not a man that won’t be after her. 22 minutes.
That’s how long they cook. Yes, ma’am. 22 minutes. Okay? Got it. All right, I’ve got to go tend to the garden. Keep an eye on the oven and I’ll be right back, okay? Whoa. Miss Kay. Fire in the hole here. Fire in the hole. Oh my god. I smell smoke in the yard and I thought Miss Kay had burned something, which has happened, but it’s pretty rare.
Oh, no. They stink so bad. Uh, yeah, I think they’re all done. [cough] [laughter] Good night. Miss Kay might have set them a little high there trying to get her to cook. Once you see smoke or fire when you’re trying to cook something, it’s usually too late. Maybe we find something else for her to do. Come on, follow me. Yes, sir.
All right, Miss Sadie, I got a little job for you. Won’t take you no time. You see that hole right there? Mhm. What I want you to do is crawl up in that hole about 30 ft. Get in there? There’s a valve. I want you to shut that valve off where I can fix my leaky pipe. Miss Sadie, you’re in luck because most of the snakes that hang around here I’ve already killed them.
What? Are there really snakes? Yeah. They’re okay. Are you serious? Yeah. It’s really dark in here. Keep going. If you see a big snake, just hit him with the wrench. What if it’s poisonous? You’ll swell up a little bit, you’ll be all right. Oh. You’ll get used to it after a while. What? There’s a lot of bugs in here. You’re the kind of granddaughter a man would be proud of.
How does this look [music] to you? A lot better than that batch I saw earlier. It was not that bad. Oh, it was bad, honey. It was bad. I could hardly get the dog to eat that muffin. Hey! Look what we’ve got. Oh, what is that? Dive in. Did you make these, Sadie? She did the prototype.
A whole day with no cell phone. How’d she do, Phil? Well, you know, when they’re 16, they get report cards. Right? Yeah. I have her skills [music] and her grade and where she learned the skills from. Mhm. Sadie’s skill report. Plumbing. Sadie did plumbing? When I found the house with a wrench, she’s a plumber, so. I’m a plumber.
And you made an A. Uh-huh. Source of training, Pepaw Phil. Very good. All right, people skills. An A. And she got that from her mom. Aw. Okay, attitude, an A. From her mom. This report card was like, I mean, really, the sweetest thing Phil has ever said. All right, last but not least, cooking skills. F. And she learned that from her mom.
[laughter] Thanks, Phil. God, I’m I’m not that bad. She’s burned more than she got right. [music] I swear there’s something wrong with my oven. Sadie’s muffins might have been burnt, but it’s better than anything I’ve had at Corey’s. You need help with supper tonight? I’ll come and help. You can bring the tea.
All right, I’ll make the tea. I’ll cook that down with you next time, Sadie. I’ll I’ll All right, yeah. It’s Phil’s of y’all. All right, bye. Love you, too. I never figured out them guys who go to Italy to run with the bulls. No, Spain. Spain, Italy. It seems like a thin line between being a matador and a rodeo clown.
I mean, what what are they thinking? They’re not thinking. Why don’t anybody just jump on the thing and ride it down to the finish? I’m talking about. Just sparring. That’s what I’m saying. You got the wood that calls done? Nope. We’re waiting on Reed from Sa. Where is he? He’s napping. Yep. It’s the middle of the day. Yep.
My gosh. I’m getting him. Sa has a condition. He’s a redneck-alectic. Sa. It’s kind of like being a narcoleptic, but instead of falling he only falls asleep when he’s on the job. Hey. I just mentioned work and you’d think I shot him with a horse tranquilizer. [music] He’s out like a light. Sa. What? You’re supposed to be working.
What do you mean? We’re waiting on Reed right now. Who is? The company. Give me about 15 Give me about 15 more minutes. Hey, look here. Napping is just like honey. You walk through the warehouse, you look over there, hey, perfect spot. Boom, I’m asleep. I’m not paying you just to sleep. Who is? Sa. What? Hey.
What are you yelling for? Sa, you ain’t working. Work work work. You shut all the production down. So, get on up, let’s get going. Get the duck out of my room. Hey, I’ll be there in a few minutes. All right. Work hard, nap hard. Hey, that’s what I always say, Jack. Shut your butt up, let’s get to work. What’s up, guys? What’s up with this? What is this crap here? Just have a seat, Sa.
I wanted to call a meeting about the rules of the workplace and efficiency. [music] This is what we need to bring us together. I’m excited about it and I think they’re going to like it. [music] Employees rules and regulation policies and procedures and other stuff to control you. Sa, sit down.
We’re going to talk about in a second. You done lost your mind. Hey, look here, the big company had a bunch of rules and regulations, too. You see how that ended? Boom boom. Talking about That’s what I’m talking about. What did you do with our food room here? This ain’t the food room, it’s the conference room.
It was the food room where we took our breaks to eat. Yeah, and all your food has been dumped in the garbage. Believe me, I cleared it out. [laughter] What? I knew this was a bunch of crap. That’s where I ate my plates. But now we done lost our refrigerator, too. I had a ham sandwich in there. That’s been, yeah, that’s gone.
Well, where are we going to go eat at? We’re not eating right now. We’re having a meeting about teamwork. And, by the way, I do have some awesome new free uniforms. This is not a beauty contest. Do we look like beauty contestants to you? Hey, I’m putting lipstick on the pig, so. You put lipstick what? Yeah.
You wear lipstick if you want to. This is not Barbie and Ken [music] that you’re playing with back here, okay? Quit trying to dress me up. The only way that I would wear that if I was dead and you put that on me before you buried me. You will wear these or I’ll dock your pay. I feel like if I put these clothes on, I’m going to look like a vacuum cleaner salesman. I’m not doing it.
I’ll tell you that right now. I ain’t asking permission. We’re doing it, all right? We made duck Quack quack. Put your uniforms on, boys. I know I see why you wore that ponytail all these years. I’ve been wearing that ponytail to look more professional. Sa has got a rat tail. He’s got a squirrel tail back there.
Hey, what’s it? Squirrel tail. [laughter] What are y’all doing? Working. Working? Yeah. I cannot believe y’all put those uniforms on. Pathetic. You’d think that you’re working with men. This is ridiculous. You’re not going to pay me enough money to wear something that I would only wear if I were dead. And that’s because I would have no choice in the matter.
Jeff, you look [music] feminine. You actually look feminine. I’m trying to look professional, man. Sa. Hey. You look like you’re headed to your own funeral. I don’t like it. Hey, wearing this uniform makes me want to kick my own butt. This is going way way way too far. Nerd alert and hey, and I’m it. You think these uniforms are bad? He took the doggone rim off our basketball goal.
Huh? Not a fan. I want my hoop back. Warden Willie at it again. I can’t [music] work in this environment. He’s trying to call a riot. Hey hey hey. Y’all look awesome. Go on. smoking. I can’t breathe. You look good though. What’s up with this crap? Well, if it isn’t my wayward brother Jace, who apparently is hearing impaired as well.
All right Jace, here you go. I’ll sign it for you. Jace, go get your uniform. I am not wearing a uniform, ever. All right, I’m docking your pay. All right, dock my pay. Oh, okay. You want to play the corporate game and act like we don’t know each other. I’ll play that game. You want to go corporate America on us? Then we’ll just go on strike.
I’m walking out this door and I’m not coming back. I’m with Jace on this, nephew. Sorry. We finito finished. I’m walking out. Hey, I ain’t going to do it anymore. That was my ham sandwich. I need y’all to do my own freaking duck calls. If y’all can do it, anybody can do it. So, what do we want? Basketball respect.
When do we want it? Yesterday. Hey. We’ve got some organizational issues. What do we want? Lots. We’ve got a problem with articulation. HAM SANDWICHES. [screaming] But we’re united. Hey, I’m hungry. You doggone right. I’ll call uh Jessica and get her up here. They’re selling uh boudin, I think. Boudin? Yeah.
That’s my favorite food. I’ll call her and get her up here. I’m actually pretty hungry myself. [music] Call her. All right, that’s all we need is freedom and boudin. Hey babe. Hey, we’re uh up here striking at work, but um hey, can you bring that uh boudin up here? A bunch of it. A bunch of it? Yeah, about a half pound’s worth.
Yeah, okay. All right, bye. She’s coming. That’s what I’m talking about. Look here, boss. I’m fixing to sit down in the shade over here till Jessica gets up here with the boudin. So, we’re striking. I am too till I get some food. That there’s what they call a redneck chariot. Bring on the boudin. Miss Kay’s hot boudin coming through. Okay.
Look at all them good-looking bearded men right there. Uh-huh. Hold on, riding in here. That’s it. The cavalry has arrived. Hallelujah, boys. It’s boudin time. What’s all What’s the signs? We’re on strike. Let me tell you what your son implemented. He had a rule book about that thick. He then brought out various uniforms and acted like that I was fixed to put one on.
I’m with you on no suits, no uniforms. I’m with you on that. But Daddy will wear my shirt, won’t he? This is embarrassing. I’m thinking at least my dad will understand where I’m coming from, and then I look at him and think, we have a problem. I figured the beard was a dead giveaway that I’m a grown man. Not really. I’m not going to put up with stupidity and I’m not going to be treated like I’m six.
I’m going to get Corey, I’m going to get a bowl of boudin, and we’re going to settle this now. It’d be best if you listen to your mother. She’s giving you good, sound, kind, gentle, and motherly advice. Uh I would take that advice. If he’s willing to compromise. No lip. But if you don’t take that advice, then you got to deal with me and I’ll tear you a butt up. Not wearing a uniform.
Sick of Miss Kay. Jail call. Boys, let me tell you something. Miss Kay bore all four of those boys of mine, and when I saw them come forth from her loins, the first thing that struck me is a woman’s a lot tougher than I thought they were. And the second thing that struck me is my sex life is over as I know it.
[laughter] And then I was about to ask where the boudin was. Yeah, yeah. Good grief. Hey. [music] Field done killed my appetite. Y’all, I’d probably throw my boudin sausage up in the way. Having said that, I salute women worldwide. [laughter] I think he’s coming. This is stupid. Don’t make a face.
You got Mom involved in this now? You better believe it. Let me tell you something. Mom’s sweet and everything, but when it comes to us, she will kick us in the Willie. I’ve been trying to handle y’all [music] for years. Come on, Willie. Work it out. Well, tell him he’s being ridiculous. He’s being ridiculous. I’m out of here. No, you’re not.
You’re going to grow up and act like the man you are, and you’re going to grow up and act like the man you are. There’s got to be some give and take here. Put the basketball goal back up. No slam dunk contest. What? When we have a big order to fill. All right. Don’t take four lunch breaks a day. Okay. And no rule books. No megaphones.
Okay. Now, you both say you’re sorry. Ha. Yes, you are, and you are. All right, say it together. Come on, y’all can do this. Do not laugh. I’m sort of sorry. He said sort of. Yeah, I didn’t lose. This doesn’t mean I lose. [music] Hey, I ain’t saying I’m wrong, but if a basketball hoop can keep me out of the duck call room, it’s worth it. Pathetic, but come on. Come on.
[laughter] Yeah, you are. And you’re coming back. I’ve always made the boys hug in the past, and they always make up. This is going to set them straight or I’m going to get the wooden spoon. Stop touching me. love each other? Oh, yes, we do. All’s well that ends well. He said he’s sorry.
I said I’m sort of sorry. Sorry like a sorry turd. Let’s see. That’s the truth. I’m sick of making duck calls. And Jace, that megaphone is annoying. But I love the megaphone. This is one of the best things about this company, the company retreat. When we have a retreat, that means we’re going hunting. So, I’m happy.
You reckon you got [music] enough shells? Last thing we going to do is run out of ammo, boy. And I do a lot of retreating. My whole life is retreat. But it seemed like it’s a little early this year. It is early, ain’t Ain’t but two seasons open, hogging turkey. Well, let’s kill something for I’m waiting on Willie.
I don’t know where he’s at. Hey, Willie He’s probably in his stuffy office doing stuffy business as usual. Well, I’m going to get him. Well, go get him. All right, I’m tired of waiting. We’re going to hunt. We’re going to hunt. We’ll sit out in the parking lot. I’m out. Of course it’s an attractive offer. Willie, let’s go.
Who wouldn’t be interested in that? I got some big news. I’ve got another job offer from a big company. We’re waiting. Tell you what, I’ll call you back. Stop it. Nah, it’s one of my kids. I’ve gotten these offers before, and I just turn them down. I say, “No, no [music] thanks.” But this one this is one of those that’s going to be hard to walk away from. Thank you.
All right. Let’s Let’s go, man. And then I’m ready. I had one phone call. That’s what I do. I take phone calls. Let’s go kill something. What are we going after anyway? Yeah, I’m thinking hog. One thing for sure, we ain’t duck hunting. Oh, I got something special planned. I always look forward to the retreat.
Every year we go hunting. But this year I got a little surprise for them. This ain’t exactly looking like uh place to hunt there, Willie. Where I’m taking the guys is a little out of their comfort zone. Sometimes you got to shake it up. It don’t look like no hunting hole to me. This way. Hey, there ain’t nothing here. I have no idea where we’re at.
Way too many [music] houses. It’s like I’m in an alien country. Are you lost? All right, we’re here. Oh, hey. Where is this place? Is that a swimming pool? Come on, I’ll explain later. Our counselor’s waiting. Counselor? This is not the wild, wild woods. What do you think? The whole thing is making me nauseous.
Hey, that don’t look like no hunting camp. No woods? What are we going to be killing? We’re going to be killing fear, doubt, What? hesitancy. That already seems stupid to me, Willie. This is a team building camp. Are you serious? A team building camp? If I was trying to build a team full of idiots, that’s what I’d do. This is the stupidest thing you’ve ever come up with.
Will there be any running involved? Willie put the bamboos on the whole bunch of us, crazy knucklehead. We’re going to have to work together as a team. Oh, the key to this is Boys, I might have to go AWOL. Hey guys. Hey, Willie. Hey, I’m straight. Oh, nice to see you. Good to see you, man. This must be the rest of the duck commander crew.
This is the crew. Well, it’s great that you guys are here. This is obviously something that’s needed, and I know that by the end of the day you’ll really get a sense for your trust and teamwork and what you can really do when you work together. Chant, look, it’s good to meet you and all, but we’re not going to be here long.
That’s what we need to work on right there. That kind of attitude. [music] There is something waiting in these woods that you’ve never gotten to see before. Are you serious? It’s a joke, right? No, it’s no joke. You done lost your mind. Next thing you know, you’ll have us holding hands and we’ll be singing Kumbaya around the campfire.
[music] It’s going to be more than what even we thought it would be when we spoke over the phone. Kumbaya, my Lord. Kumbaya. Face your fears. Sometimes it takes [music] time. It’s like a hippie commune here. Right this way, guys. This is not a joke? No weapons, either. No weapons? I’m going to check y’all for guns. Hey. All right, man. I’m glad you called.
This is exactly what we’re designed for. They’re going to get into it. Yeah, I think so. I think so. Guys, this is our first element today. A deer stand. I can go get my bow right now. It’s not a deer stand. Yeah. You need to build up there, you know, a little bit higher for deer stand.
I know this probably looks like a deer stand. This is actually what we call a trust fall. This is an event that will help you guys really get a chance to see the level of trust you share between each other. Hey, I come up here this morning trusting that we was going on on a hog hunt or a turkey hunt, and then here I am talking to a psychiatrist.
[laughter] So, to say I have got a little trust issue with him is a understatement. Sure. [music] What am I actually supposed to do here? Si, you would walk up to the top of this platform, turn and face this tree, and I want you to just fall back and let us catch you. We got you, Si. Don’t worry about it.
We got this. Si, it’s going to change your life. That’s what I’m afraid of. I’m afraid it’ll put me in a wheelchair. [laughter] But now I feel like Si’s at the age where if we don’t catch him, it’s over. This is going to be great. This is going to be absolutely great. Are we really going to do this? Seriously, we’re going to do this? Si needs you to catch him.
This is called being stupid together. Si, I want you to say trusting. Hey, why don’t I just go ahead and get out on the ladder? [laughter] That’s what I’m saying. The last thing I want to do is fall hoping these idiots will catch me. Here we go, Si. I’m going to hit the ground. This is the dumbest [music] thing you have ever done, Silas Merritt Robertson.
Trusting. Okay, we’re trusting. Si, you say falling. FALLING. FALL AWAY. [laughter] GUYS, I’D REALLY LIKE TO TRY AND GET THIS GOING, OKAY? Here we go, Si. Now, Si, you’re going to say falling, we’re going to say fall away. Goodness. [laughter] See? I got that upside the face. Will, yeah, I apologize for that.
Trusting, [music] falling. I pity the world if that’s what it takes to trust people. Martin, I think that’s just a product of Si not fully trusting you as he’s bringing his arms out. some issues in that fall, that’s right. I definitely had issues, Si. So, I don’t trust people. That’s life. Uh, who’d like to go next? I ain’t doing it.
I’ll go. Martin gets up on that platform, I’m going to tell you something. You might as well just chunk a sperm whale off there. We’d have just as much luck catching that. If he goes up there, it’s no longer about trust. It’s about Well, that’s no fun. This is it, Trent? This is it. This is called [music] the pamper pole.
We’ll have to change your diapers after it’s over. [laughter] That’s right. It’s a little bit intense. You can see it’s a it’s a high element. We’ll take a volunteer, somebody to climb up here and and take a leap of faith. Not it. I’m out, Jack. Hey, I’ve done my part, okay? I trusted. I don’t understand something designed to make you poop in your pants.
You know, that don’t do nothing for me. This will fit anybody. We’re [music] prepared for whoever wants to lead the way. All right, there you go. I ain’t going to lie, I’m scared to death. I look up, it’s about 30 ft in the air, and then the thing you’re supposed to grab is about 10 ft away. I can’t let them see me be scared of it, though. I ain’t scared.
We got any honey around here? We’re sending Winnie the Pooh Bear up. Going to the woods and crapping your britches. I said this culture we live in, they’re nuts. Climbing. You guys really try. Oh, look at him. YOU’RE ON YOUR OWN NOW, BUDDY. HEY, what’s the weight limit on that pole, Trent? I think we [music] can support that weight.
Come on there, big dog. Guys, if we could really try and be encouraging. Hey, don’t screw this up. [laughter] Oh, yeah, Willie, he’s scared to death. He’s looking like a third grader who just wet his pants. Hey, as pudgy as you are, you’ll probably bounce anyway. Si, that’s not even funny.
Hey, unless he’s going to do a over the over the off of there. What? Uh-huh, over the off of there? He’s just got to bail off. They should have watched the Olympics for that trick. They’re doing a half over the off of there. I need to check my Si at the size to see what he JUST SAID. [cheering] WATCH OUT OVER THE OFF OF THERE. [laughter] WHEN you jump, you just say 1 2 3 jump and go for it. Okay.
JUMP. [screaming] JUMP. HE AIN’T GOING TO DO IT. HE’S GOING TO CHICKEN OUT. JUMP. Shut up. You’re doing great. You’re doing great. What’s that dripping down his leg? Shut up. Guys, if we could really try and be encouraging. The more encouraging, the better. Jump. Shut up. You’ve got this. Everybody down here believes in you, DON’T WE, GUYS? WHAT? WHAT? I’LL COUNT. WELL, START COUNTING.
IN A MINUTE. [laughter] OKAY, I’M fixing to do it. Come on. One. There you go. Two. Three comes after two. Start over. [laughter] One. Two. Three. Jump. [groaning and screaming] You had it, Will. Hey, you let go of it. You had it. My hands. Well, there was a little too much mass there, you know. That’s right. Yeah, gravity took over.
You just look like a human piñata out there. I was looking for something to hit you with to see if I get some of that money out of your pockets. See, I don’t get it. Everything I thought was going to happen [music] ain’t happening. Has anybody learned anything out here? If you’re wondering, the answer is no.
I’ve learned that if I ever want to go have some fun, this is the last place I’ll go. I’ll tell you what. Y’all keep joking, laughing, or whatever. I got a phone call to return. [music] He totally don’t get it. Hey, what are you talking about, Si? I brought you out here cuz I’ve been offered another [music] job.
[laughter] Really? Huge job, huge company. Workers actually work. You’re thinking about taking it? Duh. Okay. This gets tiring working with all this mess. I would hope you wouldn’t act too hastily. Typical Willie, I’m taking my ball and I’m going home. He gone. Now, that’s my favorite sight in the whole world. You with the broom.
You need to take a picture this. You won’t see this very often. You do see any spiders up there? Yep. Hey, buddy. What are you doing here? Willie’s in charge of a funny farm. Si got his panties in a wad about something this morning. No. When I run into a situation, I can go out and vent my frustrations, so to speak, on film.
He’ll listen. He’s running in a sane asylum up there. Huh? Unless he gets boring, then he tunes me out. I’m over there working and they’re over playing playing games. No. Well, I’ve had it. I’m sick of them. I quit. Huh? No, I quit. Hey. Huh? Si, if you had to sum it all up, what is their problem? You know, they’re idiots.
Hey. So, Si, what are you going to do now? Hey, I’d roll up my sleeves and help you over on the land. You’re duck commander, Si. I’ll work for you. I was like a rabbit [ __ ] back up at the warehouse. Now, hey, getting back out in the woods, hey, that’s where I was meant to be. Well, we always got something to do down in here, Si.
I’m down like a rodeo clown. Hello. Yeah, hold on. It’s Willie for you. Uh-oh. Uh-oh, he just got wind. Will. Si, what happened? You run a terrible company, and hey, it’s not your fault. You got a bunch of scrubs working for you. I don’t want no scrubs. Scrubs [snorts] are out. Will, I quit. You can’t just quit and leave. You’re the weed [music] man.
Hey, if you want to breathe so bad, hey, make me some weed. Look, Si Robertson out. You did not just hang up on me. Well, if Si’s going to play the quitting game, then I’m going to play the hiring game. And finding a dude with a beard who needs a job in this town, it ain’t that difficult. Well, let’s get on it. I don’t want no scrubs. Scrubs are out.
Hey, this already beats what I was doing up here with them blocks. Hey, shovels are better than weeds. Oh, yeah. Today we are fixing a levee up, and old Si is fixing to get in on that project. Basically, it’s two old coots tearing up stuff. It could be worse. Hey, I’m looking forward to this. Hey. We’re just two wild crazy guys fixing to go out in the great outdoors.
It’s dirt on our back, smell of the woods, wind in [music] our beards. I’m like a stallion horse. I need to run wild and free again. Brothers are together again. It’s going to be an old-fashioned brodown, boys. We’re like the dynamic duo. We got two tickets to the rodeo. Batman and Robin. Let’s cast these Sundance kids.
Crosby, Stills and Nash. Crosby and Stills. and Nash. That’s actually three. It’s only for two of us. Boomya. Boys, it’s good to get out of this stupid warehouse. Back out here in the woods. Old Red, look like he moving some dirt. For you manual labor, hard to find hands. That’s why we got Old Red, backhoe operator.
What do you think? You got to bring Old Red, old fella. So, Sid basically just be there for moral support. [music] They ain’t doing it right. I don’t know what he’s doing. Red, he’s a fair operator on the backhoe, you know. He ain’t great operator. I’m a great operator. Hey. Red, hold up. You ain’t You ain’t doing it right.
Let me get Let me get on that backhoe. I’ll let you have it if you can do a better job than me. So, you Can you handle it? Yeah, I can handle it. You understand the objective. Hey. Look here. See that dirt right there? Yeah. That needs to go right there. That is the objective. Take the dirt from right there. I got that. Huh? I got it.
Huh? I got it. That machine will be an extension of my body. You know, the only difference between that and my hands is I can’t grab as much with my hands. Sid, you’ve been building them reeds for about a decade. When’s the last time you was on a backhoe? Community project. Community project? Yeah. In Vietnam.
Sid, that’s been 40 years. It’s been a while, but it’s like riding a bicycle. You never forget. You boys don’t worry worry about it. I know what I’m doing. Huh. Oops. Put the dirt back in the hole. Piece of junk. Whoa. Boom, bow, bang, boom, a bow. Squealing. That dirt there needs to go this way. Hey, I know it.
Yeah, Sid’s a little rusty on these things. Good night. I better back up a little bit. Yeah, I see trouble here. Trouble trouble here. Well, he’s a little bit herky-jerky, I know that. Uh-oh. When he was prime, Sid probably was pretty good at using heavy machinery. Piece of junk. But I remember when Miss Kay weighed about 95 lb and was a cheerleader.
But them days kind of long behind us here now. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Hey, Sid. The idea is to keep the water over there. I don’t know what you talking about. It ain’t my fault. This thing here is a piece of junk. I fail to see how this is not old Silas’s fault right here. What do you say, Red? Hey, look. This backhoe is old, okay? It’s not functioning right.
Sid, might ought to call it a day and let Old Red get back on that backhoe and see what he can do with it. All right, he’s welcome to it. I’m old, too, but hey, I function perfect. Perfectly perfect. Yeah. Get get get. Go play with Bubba. He’s right over there. Go on. I’ll go that way. Miss Kay, what are you doing in there? I’m watering. Woo.
How’d it go over there? Oh, it went great. Peace. Red, let’s see. Woo. You did pretty good today, Red. Nice doing business with you. See you in the morning. Good work. What about my paycheck? Well, How am I going to get paid now? Paid? Any cash? Pay inside a tear off a levee and let water out instead of hold it in, that’d be kind of like paying a game warden to come down there and write you up for something you didn’t done.
Now, the only money changing hands is between Will and everybody, not Phil and everybody. Oh, Will be your contact on that. Well, hey, you’re the duck commander. I’ll just tell Will that hey, you said pay me. Mhm, I don’t know about that. you in the morning. All right. Probably won’t add up to do this quite.
Oh, is that straggling? Gentlemen, what’s up? The boss is back. I’ve got really good news. We get the day off. Close. One of our biggest clients, he upped his order times 10. That’s good news. That’s more work. Good point. Y’all pay attention. I’ve been thinking, guys. I’ve been thinking. Here’s the word. Synergy.
Does anybody know what that means? Well, it’s kind of like energy. Incorrect, Mountain Man. Synergy is everything [music] working together. This is not a good example of that. We got to look more professional. These are name tags. So, people walked in, you’d say, “Hey, Jeff.” “Hey, Jeff.” I’m your brother.
It’s a family business. I know who you are, but when people come in, we want to present that image. I’m putting mine on my hat. We’re going upside down. But people act like they know you and they don’t. Well, that’s okay. Now they know your name. That’s just one thing. Everybody stand up. Hand me your chair, Mountain Man.
What are you doing up here anyway? Oh, I was hanging out. Work’s slow right now. Okay, see, he doesn’t work here. Here’s the problem. Chair’s gone. He gone. Workers [music] work way harder when they’re standing up, they’re on their feet. This seems like a good way to decrease productivity. No, no, no. This will increase. It’s All right, guys, look.
We can’t do 10 times [music] what we’re doing at this pace. Y’all can barely get done what you’re supposed to be doing now. For Duck Commander to ever get to the next level, we have got to speed up the process. So, we need to get more automated. I need one guy passing off to the next guy and then he’s to the next guy and it’s just moving down the line.
Like a conveyor belt? Like a conveyor belt. A conveyor belt? I have no idea what Willie’s talking about. What Willie needs to do if he wants to be more productive is fire all of us. Everybody on their feet. Synergy. Synergy. Synergy. All right, back to work. Nobody sitting down, either. Mhm. Willie going wild. Ain’t that the truth.
