As you surely know, the occasional personnel change on a TV show occurs for various reasons, ranging from health issues and death to just going in a different direction. In 1982, one of television's most popular shows, The Dukes of Hazzard, experienced such a change over salary issues. Out were the popular Bo and Luke Duke, in were Coy and Vance for a lackluster season, before Bo and Luke returned.
The theme for the popular Dukes of Hazard tv show features the following line: “Straight'nin' the curves, flat'nin the hills. Someday the mountain might get ‘em, but the law never will.” This episode features two “good ole boys” in the persons of host Steve Fielder and his Kentucky-born guest Jerry Barker. Like the Bo and Luke Duke theme suggests, the boys “make their way” through a pile of coon hunting topics that should resonate with anyone comfortable enough to wear the good ole boy label themselves. This one comes through as tasty as country ham bathed in red eye gravy with grits on the side. It's a down-home kind of “thang” that anyone identifying with the “good ole boy” label will enjoy. “Just a good ol' boys, wouldn't change if they could, fightin' the system like modern day Robin Hoods.” Good ole boys.

Listen in for this episode, direct from a hotel room! Good news: we had the episode. Bad news: with this setup there was no way to have a birthday game and we had to recycle a Dukes review. Bern and CD were (not) crushed. Enjoy! K&F Show Summary: This is the Dukes of Hazzard episode that shows in America, democracy still works.. until the next episode when democracy will be forgotten, because in Season 2 long-lasting consequences only last exactly one episode. Smoke-show married mom "TC Rodgers" returns to Hazzard to run for county supervisor, a job held by Boss Hogg that has a number of privileges, including being the probation officer for Bo and Luke Duke. Bo and Luke help the smoke-show mom because 1) it's the right thing to do, 2) they think she's a smoke show, and 3) they do not know she's a married mom. In helping her win an election they also commit several FCC violations and perform electronic miracles by communicating via CB radio to people on telephones! And you know in the Blue Brothers with they put a loudspeaker on the Bluesmobile? Well that bit came from this episode too. Anyway, the Smokeshow wins the election, her husband and kid show up, and in a week we'll never hear from her again….just like most political candidates that promised you everything before Nov 5, 2024.

The good ole boys are back this week as Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum revisit the Dukes of Hazzard reunion in Smallville Season 5 Episode 6: EXPOSED. After the guys remember what it was like to be inside of Bo and Luke Duke's reunion they explore Smallville going more adult with parental advisory-inclined scenes and storylines. PLUS we get a visit from the star of this episode herself, ERICA DURANCE as she recalls the funcomfortable scenes in the strip club, facing fears throughout Season 5, and how she approached the blossoming relationship with Clark Kent in the early seasons.

General Lee's Iconic First JumpOn November 11th, 1978, during the filming of One-Armed Bandits, a stuntman launched the iconic General Lee off a makeshift dirt ramp and over a police car on the Georgia set of The Dukes of Hazzard, TV history was made. This 16-foot-high and 82-foot-long leap resulted in a totaled car but secured its place in every episode's opening credits.As countless stunts unfolded on screen, nearly every car met its demise, prompting prop masters to scour the country for every 1969 Dodge Charger they could find. Outfitted with roll cages, nose-mounted push bars, and upgraded suspensions, these cars braced themselves for inevitable landings. Brakes were tampered with to perfect the 180-degree bootlegger's turn, while concrete or lead-filled trunks prevented mid-air flips.Despite these reinforcements, landing those jumps must have been a jarring experience for the stunt drivers – let alone Bo, Luke, Daisy, or dear old Uncle Jesse.This orange Charger – adorned with "01" on its doors, a Confederate flag on its roof, and a horn that played Dixie's first twelve notes – belonged to Bo and Luke Duke themselves. With it, they evaded corrupt County Commissioner Boss Hogg in thrilling chases and narrow escapes.While on air, the General Lee received 35,000 fan letters monthly. Enthusiasts purchased millions of toys and remote-controlled replicas of the car, with some even modifying their own vehicles to resemble the Duke's Charger. In 2006, Travis Bell rescued "Lee 1," the original General Lee from that jump, from an Atlanta-area junkyard where it had sat for 23 years. The car underwent a full restoration before selling to golfer Bubba Watson at a Scottsdale Barrett-Jackson auction in 2012. The Dukes of Hazzard aired on CBS from 1979 until 1985.www.nodrivingloves.com#cars #car #collectorcars #oldcars #cartalk #electriccars #ev #hotrod #carhistory #automotivehistory #automobile #thisdayinautomotivehistory #thisdayinhistory #classiccars #onthisday #NaPodPoMo #Dukes #dukeboys #hazzardcounty #generallee

KF Show Summary: On our quest for a Father's Day episode we decided to review this one! This is the episode where Luke, an ex boxer in the Marines who nearly accidentally killed someone, has to choose his Uncle Jesse's farm or to trade his soul. And he can't choose either. Uncle Jesse knows that he has a dilemma to help Luke with, but instead of giving him the answer (which he COULD d0), he helps Luke learn how to make an impossible decision on his own. Because that's what fathers do best; teach their kids how to make the tough decisions and be better for it. And then Luke punches the bad guy out, wins the farm anyway, and Jack Gill makes jumping history in the General Lee with the first ever "bungee" suspension vest. 10 Dogs.

At one time, Dukes of Hazzard was one of the biggest shows on television.And co-star Tom Wopat has been elevated to legend status by many who grew up in the early 80s....including our Sports In Yer Shorts boy, Chris Gough. So much so that Gough has gone from merely kind of stalker-ish, to becoming good friends with Wopat...and now WE are that much closer to LUKE DUKE!!!!!
Presented with Holley! Christmas is over and it's time to look forward to spring break. How about April 28-30 in Las Vegas at Holley LS Fest West?? If an LS based (or current generation LT V8) engine is powering your ride or if you are considering a swap to LS power, this is your event! Race cars, street rods, muscle cars, trucks, late models, drift cars, prerunners, Ultra 4 buggies – you name it, if it is powered by an LS/LT there will be something here for you! Just visit Holley.com to peruse and view for yourself and be SURE to tell them that we sent you! Tom Wopat is here! With our man Corndog gone this week (to do "parenting" stuff) we knew we had to do something big....so we replaced him with Dukes of Hazzard legend Tom Wopat! Well....actually, we after last week's show we realized that, like Corndog, Tom's favorite seasons of the Dukes dated back to Season 1 as well for most of the same reasons. So, it seemed only fitting to replay his one and only appearance on our show from 2019 (Episode 102). Tom went from being a farm-kid in Wisconsin dreaming of playing for the Green Bay Packers, to being a lead on Broadway, becoming Luke Duke, and back to Broadway. There's something for everyone in here – and plenty of Dukes insight as well! National Parts Depot Presents: Bernie on the News: Also in this episode....the good people at National Parts Depot have to decided 2023 is the year to present the Award Winning Newsman Bernie McPartland in his (self-proclaimed) award winning news segment, Bernie On the News. As most of you know, NPD is the title sponsor of The MuscleCar Place Podcast and has been since 2011. Their immense support of TMCP as a show (and as a company) can't be overshadowed. And now, the fact that they are presenting Bern in the drivers seat for the world to hear....is somewhat humbling. And by humbling, we mean frightening, terrifying, sickening, etc. Welcome, NPD (and Bern, don't screw this up)!

Thursday, December 1, 2022 - Guest: Pop in guests! It's a pot luck show. How is that different from every show? Who knows! But Paul Rivera kicks us off and he's got cat-ear headphones for the toy drive! Discussions of the crest, the Dukes of Hazzard, and working for eccentric billionaires organically unfold. Topics range from DeLoreans & Ectos to Porsches & Lambos and the sigmas they bring. Paul tells us the story about first meeting Matt Farah and the Murci trip on 20 year old tires. Good stuff, GOING LONG... THANK YOU for being with us
Straitening the curves, flattening the hills.....some day the mountain might get 'em but the law never will! in 1979 Gy Waldron made a TV series based off a movie he had also done called Moonrunners which was about a family of bootleggers. A lot of people thought it wouldn't work but 7 years later we have a successful show with tons of fans to this day & merchandise & memorabilia that could fill multiple warehouses! The show showed how a lot of southern families lived going by the bible while yet showing how still unperfect that they were and had tons of fun car chases and car jumps by Bo & Luke Duke. We had a blast discussing the show and its something I could talk all day about so I hope that you enjoy it as well and that it brings memories of those good ole boys jumping creek beds and outwitting Boss & Roscoe! The world needs a little more Uncle Jesse & a little less Boss Hogg. YeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaW!

We end the show with the #1 song of April 72 vs the #1 song of April 82. And boy can you tell which song is from which decade!

John Schneider is a true man of many talents. Although he is perhaps best known for his role as Bo on The Dukes of Hazzard, John is also an acclaimed actor, musician, film maker, studio owner and philanthropist.His incredible national impact all began in an unlikely place: sneaking onto a movie set as a teenager. In this episode of Trevor Talks, you'll hear that story, the story of how Johnny Cash helped preserve John Schneider's faith, and so much more. Throughout the conversation, Trevor and John talk about what it truly looks like to join your life with what God is doing in this world. Chances are that you'll walk away from this episode inspired to find your own purpose— even if it looks as unconventional as a New York kid sneaking onto an Atlanta movie set.John's latest project is the movie Poker Run, available the day after Thanksgiving. You can get Poker Run on John's website.Follow John Schneider:Website: johnschneiderstudios.comFacebook: John SchneiderInstagram: @Johnschneider.01Twitter: @John_SchneiderYouTube: John SchneiderFor more Trevor Talks:SpotifyApple MusicGoogle PodcastsInstagramFacebook
Growing up Beans wished he was Luke Duke. Turns out that dream was a little closer than he thought in that in tracing his American leg of the family tree, he has a cousin Beau. If you listened to episode BDS5, you'll know the back story, if not, you can always go back and listen to Beans does Genealogy. Beau should have joined us at TBR HQ but due to some passport problems he had to join us digitally and share that story from his perspective... and some of the really weird coincidences that are part of this story. There's our regular NFL chat and a little bit of hunting talk which should be interesting for our UK listeners before we ask the important question "Is Andy a viking?" Go grab yourself a cold one, kick back and enjoy! The opening music is "London Bayou" by Oscar Albis Rodriguez and the closing music is "BDS" by Lewis Pickford. tallboyradio.com

Randi and Candi Brough make their return to the Dukes to - once again - play the role of identical twin sisters for the Dukes to love on. This time they lay characters that are named Cindy and Sandy. Last time they were on it was Floralee and Francee. Apparently rhyming first names is important when establishing that people are identical twins. Anyway, this time they are thieves and use their identicalness to cast the art of deception on Bo and Luke Duke. The rest of the plot is irrelevant, but entertaining nonetheless. 6 Dogs.

I think that people think success is like, “Man, if I could just buy a Lamborghini one day…” That would be the marker of success for some people and that's great. If that motivates you, fast cars are cool, I get it, go for it. But I think like your definition of success can change every six months if it needs to. [38:17] I wanted to be a great husband and be a great dad. And if I had to be a “good businessman”, that was okay. I'd rather not be a great businessman and a good husband and a good dad, or maybe potentially a bad dad because I run out of hours.

But like, in hindsight, he was right, right, like life does have a propensity to get a little bit more complicated as you go on. I still encourage people that are that have that call to entrepreneurship, no matter the life stage, but but I'm glad I took the dive then. And you're right. It was admittedly scary at that time. I think I remember the first time I got like a 15 $100 check from our first client. And I felt like it was like, This is crazy. Just like felt so real to me. So scary. And then I was like, well, like, would I get the check to, you know? Just like it all gets real. Like, oh, yeah, there's no departments for anything. There we go.

Over the years, he's worked with celebrities such as LeBron James and Arnold Schwarzenegger, and entrepreneurs that deserve to be celebrities, doubling over 15 businesses along the way. Beau is the creative force behind all campaigns that Scale That works with and is regularly consulted surrounding his unique approach to marketing strategy, campaign architecture in generating traffic and conversions predictably. But what is really fascinating about Beau, is his decision to put family first and build a company in life that supports that. A little side note, if you would have asked nine year old Marc what name he wished his parents would have chosen for him. They would have been Beau, inspired by Beau and Luke Duke fame. But I always wanted to be a Beau. Let's get back to today's Beau. Beau Haralson talks about working on the now famous of yourself campaign with officemax what big brands really want, and how small brands can compete in this is his story. I am here with Beau Haralson, the co founder and CEO of Scale That Beau, thanks for coming on. And let's get right to it. We're both digging out of snow and dealing with snow here in Colorado. So well, we're running a little late. But I wanted to start off with real simple thought of a question of what is Scale That? that's the name of your company. Tell me a little bit about Scale That. Beau Haralson Yeah, number one, thanks for having me. I'm really honored to be here. And Marc, it's been great to I felt comfortable wearing hat today. Because I know you love a good hat. And so anyway, thanks for thanks for that. But the name Scale That ultimately came from, I've been doing agency work and help them grow brands for the better part of a decade plus, and fortune 500 brands and everything in between. and the number one thing I see folks get wrong is they just scale the wrong thing. And as long as I want, like, it's not like we woke up that day and said, you know, let me just grow my business in the wrong way. We're all well intentioned people. But one of the things I'm really passionate is helping people find the right thing to scale. It's not a matter of if people want to scale, that's usually not the conversation, it's usually figuring out the right thing to grow. And the right way to grow a business and so, so getting a little bit cheeky with it, we're like yeah, let's call it Scale That. Beau Haralson 4:24 because those those are the moments we look for and conversations with folks and help them grow their business and go, Hey, hey, that's nothing skill that. So taking a bit of that excitement, and that's how we ended up the name. Very cool, you know, and I think that we hear this word scale all the time, you know, scale this, scale that I want to scale. You want to scale, let's all scale right. But I think that much like the genesis of your name, you know, it has different definitions. I think it means different things to different people. What's it mean to you? Like, how do you define that? Yeah, it's interesting. I think people Definitely romanticize the concept of scale. I mean, you know, I think it's definitely every entrepreneurs dream to find that that predictable path to revenue is words that I hear tossed around, there's a great book of that title, written by his name escapes, I think, is Aaron Rodgers, but one of the early guys at Salesforce and talks about this idea of predictable path to revenue, and everyone kind of caught on to that idea of like, Okay, if marketing can get predictable, if sales can get predictable, and we can scale, then like, that's the that's the golden ticket. And and to some extent, you know, marketing has gotten to be somewhat predictable. You can you can figure out your customer acquisition costs, and figure out some of the customer journey. But there's, there's part of this lightning and bottle that's just elusive. And I think, to answer your question, ideas, scale, to me means finding that as close as you can, finding that algebra equation, if you will, going, Okay, if we do this, and we do that, it'll cost us x, and the output is y. And if we, if we do that consistently, then we'll grow in scale. The challenges is those inputs change, marketing changes, people change, we're kind of complicated ourselves. So it's an ever-complex kind of system of variables. And then deep within that is the question of scale readiness, a lot of a lot of companies will get into it. And they'll find that path to scale. And then, you know, they'll break. we've, we've run a lot of folks out of inventory, we've broken some companies, and I think, like, part of our questionnaires we get to know companies is are you ready to scale. And you know, there's assumptions within that. And often in fixing those things and taking a half step back, you'll find more efficient ways to scale, you'll just get more exciting from there. But so I think, as much as I love to talk about scale, what I love to talk about is growth, readiness, and close proximity to that as well. Because that's the thing, you can control some of those variables, you can't kind of at the top of the funnel, but the things you can't control is like if you were to say, sell 500 units or whatever you're selling or fulfill, I have to fulfill five more contracts this this week. Would it break you? Are you ready? You know, so that type of stuff is stuff that it's not as romantic as romanticized. But a lot of the good answers are found within those questions. Such a great answer. Thank you. And as I think about that, you know, I also consented a twinge or a twin, if you will, in your voice that suggests that you're not necessarily you didn't you were born and raised here in Colorado. And so as you were, as you were growing up, why don't you take us a little bit back to where you were raised? And where you like, Did you think you'd ever be into this, this concept of scale and marketing and all this kind of stuff. So I was born in Texas, pretty good West Texas, which everyone's on particularly I'm talking about getting my oil changed, it comes right out. But most most of my accent, I think, is somewhat neutralized, but totally depends on who I've been talking to, particularly if I've talked to my mom that day, it comes right out, but or if you're applying a lot of snowbank and a truck, right like that, that gets as centralized as well. That's right. But um, but yeah, so I was born and if you'd read like, say, my high school yearbook, it would have said, like, hey, Bo, you're going to be a great youth pastor someday, and or you're going to be like, a park ranger someday, I've always been in the outdoors. I grew up in a home, where my folks were missionaries growing up. And so by the nature of that, by the time I was 13, I've been to I think, like, six different countries, all of them in very much Third World environments. traveled, the majority of the US just grew up. And really, I wouldn't say like, first class traveling very much a lot of places with not a lot of water. Had a knife pulled on me had a gun pulled on me in those travels, like had had a lot of interesting, you know, perspectives. I think by the time I was like, 1314, and I didn't realize how weird it was entirely compared notes for some some of my friends and was like, What do you guys do this summer? And they're like, we'd like baseball on I'd be like, cool. I almost got shot. Oh, that's different. Yeah. So I think on the other side of, you know, of that, I think, as scary as some of those experiences were, I'm really, really grateful for some perspective that gave me on just kind of, I felt like I got a small undergrad degree and anthropology, by nature of just getting to travel and go to places where, you know, there wasn't electricity, there wasn't running water, you know, just makes you grateful for for every day, and I'm grateful for that experience as well. So pastor, youth pastor or Park Marc Gutman 9:59 Ranger, you are neither right now. Like what happened? Like, like, we're, like you saw in the yearbook and you came out, you know, you're like, I'm gonna conquer the world as a youth pastor, or a park ranger, what happened? Oh, man, that's a great question. I think along the way, I met a girl. Beau Haralson 10:18 And, and I really, you know, like, there's some of that that was really good for me to be honest, there's some immaturity in the early on around this context of like, providing and protecting and figuring that out. And then using some skills. I saw a good movie called Amazing Grace along the way. And there's a scene with William Wilberforce. And, and, and it's pretty poignant for me, but he has an intervention from his friends, and they come together, and they say, Hey, we understand that you're really, really excited about like, becoming a pastor in his scenario. And we understand that you're really, really also excited about becoming a politician. And in his context, actually, changing the nature of the slave trade really being one of the early forefathers of that. And his friends hosted an intervention. And they basically say, Hey, we humbly suggest that you can do both, like, just just go do you, like go be you and pursue your interests, and you're going to like, maybe touch some people along the way, and help them out. And you're also going to, in his case, change public policy, where he can impact people on a different level, potentially, then he could have maybe from behind a pulpit. And so regardless of worldview, the thing that's interesting to me about that is, I think that we think that our career, our worldview has to be this binary thing that we put in a box somewhere, and I had a literally I, my friends, I was interviewing with me my junior year of school, and they're like, Hey, dude, I don't know if you know this, but you're good at other things, like you can actually help people out in the business world. You're halfway decent as a strategist, like you can go do other things. And I said, well, worst case scenario, you try those things for a little while, and I'm not good at them. And I go back to what is, quote, more comfortable for me what I grew up around and with, and it doesn't sound like a terrible way to go. And so I my friends, humbly suggested I do both. And I sat down and, and really reflected through that. And since then, I've been, you know, doing this thing called business and recognize as being halfway decent along the way. So I haven't stopped yet. So we'll see if one day I'll just retire into being a park ranger, though that's still the goal. So how did your parents feel about not carrying on the the line of work, and I imagine they probably had a lot of hopes and dreams for you, as you were thinking about being a youth pastor, or growing into the kind of a similar similar areas, then, you know, I think, I think, overall, my dad is still a great mentor of mine. And I think overall, they're wildly supportive. I mean, I think that if I had gone into nearly anything, they would have been pretty excited about it for me, so that I never felt any undue pressure from them. Let's be honest, and they've been part of the journey. They geek out on it when I release new commercial or import a new project. And so I'm really grateful for the support. Marc Gutman 13:05 And so like, how did you get into marketing? You know, that's still like for your friends to say, hey, like, you're kind of good at this stuff for you know, to get actually into marketing and start doing it. And, you know, what was that? Like? How'd you even get get involved in this space? You had a lot of choices. At that point. If someone says to you, hey, you're good at business? Beau Haralson 13:23 Yeah, no, it's broad. I mean, I graduated degree in communications, and second, second, whatever. It's called a minor in business from Texas a&m. And, and I remember I was walking to a career fair. I mean, it was just like, I was like, literally my last career fair, my senior year. And I'd already proposed to my girlfriend, then three years, we were in our one year engagement period. And, you know, I was like, Alright, I got to show up and make this thing happen. And I was knocking on doors and dial in and you know, trying to kick a kick, open whatever door I could, and I ran into someone, recruiter from officemax. I walked up in point blank said, Hey, listen, I'm not gonna. I'm not a geek on office supplies, like, but I've seen some iOS commercials and some of the stuff y'all do. And it's interesting. And they wrote me in and before I knew it, I was on a plane to Chicago and met a guy named Bob sacker. And Bob was the guy that brought Michael graves into target. And Michael graves was one of the earlier designers there used to be this store called Kmart. And there's kind of like these big three, there's Kmart, Walmart, and target. Were kind of duking it out. And Bob Thacker bra designers in to target and brought design to the masses, ultimately through target. And, and I said, I don't really candidly care about office supplies, but I want to learn from a guy like that. And so at the time, we wanted to move to Colorado and had opportunities out here and I punted on all of them, and I said, Hey, we're gonna go do this whole thing in Chicago, and give it a go. And so I went worked at officemax corporate headquarters, actually on the business side of things and then I reported in Because it's kind of a liaison from the business side to the marketing side, so is representing the voice of the business to the marketers and saying, hey, go and grow this accordingly. And I'd say we're like marketing kind of hit me hook line and sinker was I got to be part of the elf yourself campaign. So I don't know if you remember this campaign, but you got to like you pasted your face on a dancing elf when flash animations were saying and, and you share with friends. So Bob originated that campaign along with this team, and you got to be a part of that. And I was like, Okay, I yeah, this is it. This is the fun side of things. And then that was kind of that was it for me for marketing. Marc Gutman 15:38 And then where did that job lead you to? So eventually, you know, you got interested in marketing. And, you know, you're learning from one of the best at what point do you come to Colorado? Beau Haralson 15:49 Yeah, so we decided that for three or four years, and honestly, it was in the mid to late 2008. So you can do the math, not a great year to be selling much of anything much less like just but like discretionary office supplies and things like that. And so things did compress a bit in the market. And so that was like my first run through a recession, which was, which was really healthy for me from a professional standpoint, to navigate that we got created an innovative and being a part of the business unit that sold store within a store within a store solutions. If you imagine like, at one point time, Best Buy didn't have a designated Apple section or designated like Samsung section that was all like a new concept. And what we would do is take that similar concept and take it into say Kroger, or a Safeway and say, Hey, you guys are selling office supplies, can we just take over that run for you and do that, and so was wrapping up that was helping sell that solution and and got used to kind of selling and enjoyed that part of it and negotiating big deals and be a part of that whole thing and just innovative business modeling. And we're able to save a few jobs. I was like that was that was cool. We were able to actually put some bread on the table for the company gets maker mental funds and a really challenging time. And roundabout. Then Office Depot went to announce they were in they were they were actually going to buy out Office Max. And even if my number would have been called I would have been moving to Boca Raton, Florida. And nothing against Boca Raton. I just I was like, Yeah, I think I think this is our chapter change. And so I've been building a network out here in Colorado for seven years. At that point time, I'd flown out here and I'd ski a day, I'd bike a day. And then I'd go shake hands and have coffee with people out here for seven years straight, regardless of the year. I always just did. That was how I did spring break. And so called up some folks in the network out here and went to work for an agency out here for a little while. And so I got the bug for entrepreneurship. Marc Gutman 17:46 Yeah, what was that agency out here? Beau Haralson 17:48 So they're actually up in long on St. avocet. So is a company that I've interned for and so I knew them a bit and, and really enjoyed that part of the digital was happening at the same time. And a good buddy of mine named Mike Worley was and I had kind of geeked out through mutual mentors, kind of guys that were under the tutelage of Seth Godin, and we'd meet up for, you know, meet up once a month, and just kind of riff on digital marketing, what was happening and believe it or not, like, pay per click, and Google and all that stuff was still just then happening. And we were like, hey, this thing's happening at a fast pace. And he was like, Hey, you want to take the dive? Like, let's just go start something on our own. And so we started an agency ran that for three or four, four years. Yep. And then that was my first foray into entrepreneurship. quickly after quickly ish after moving to Colorado. Marc Gutman 18:40 Yeah. And so like, you know, I think like, because we remember things, it's like, Mike's like, hey, and let's start a business. You're like, Yeah, sure. But like, why did you really want to start your own business? Like, why do that? I mean, it's, it's not easy. You mentioned that you I'm assuming you, you know, you have a wife at this point. I don't know if your family situation, but like, you know, you're you got some responsibilities. So it's not like, nothing's happening, like, you know, why start your own business? Like, why go into business for yourself? Beau Haralson 19:06 Yeah, I mean, coming from a organization of like, 35,000 folks, where there was like, an HR departments and, you know, like, some, you know, cogs to the wheel all moving with or without me showing up like, it was, it was an interesting thing to make that transition. And I had, you know, felt like felt complicated to me at that time. But I had a good friend and another mentor, guy named Aaron McHugh that dropped this now, like this little nugget on me, and he said, Hey, like, to be honest, though, like, life isn't gonna get any more simple than it is right now. Like, I know you have a wife and obligations and all this type of stuff, but like, pretty soon you might have a dog, like a baby, girl family, bigger mortgage, like all the stuff he's like, if there's a time to be risk tolerant, and make a jump and if you feel like you have like a burning, you know, sensation in your heart to like, go do something and put your stamp on it. Like, I got news for you, it's probably in this, maybe in this decade, maybe even in this like two or three year gap that well, things are simple. And it all felt complicated at the time. But like, in hindsight, he was right, right, like life does have prevented you get a little bit more complicated as you go on. I still encourage people that are that have that call to entrepreneurship, no matter the life stage, but but I'm glad I took the dive then. And you're right, it was admittedly scary at that time. I think I remember the first time I got like a $1500 check from our first client. And I felt like it was like, This is crazy. Just like felt so real to me. So scary. And then I was like, well, so like, would I get the check to you know? Just like, it all gets real. Like, you're like, Oh, yeah, there's no departments for anything. There we go. Marc Gutman 20:51 Gotta do it all, I'm the everything person. Yeah. And those words from Aaron McHugh Wow. resonates so much with me. And it's just like, you just don't realize that even when you think how complicated Your life is, it just never seems to get less complicated. It just kind of keeps getting more and more complicated. So great, great advice, and great insight. Great mentorship. That's that's really cool. So that businesses that when I met you and Mike the first time, like when you were in that business? Beau Haralson 21:17 That is, yeah. up at Cloud camp, we had a I've been friends with people Argus for a long time we met at one of Pete's events. But yeah, that was I think that was year two year three ish for us. And decline. But yes, that's when we crossed paths. Marc Gutman 21:33 Yeah. And it was my impression at that time that that business was really strongly weighted towards digital marketing funnel building, working with other partners like digital marketer, can you can you tell us a little bit about that business? And did it? Did I have that right? I'm gonna make sure I read return on that a little. Beau Haralson 21:50 Yeah, you're 100%. Right. So we, I would say we were heavily influenced by HubSpot and some of their methodologies in terms of like, there's a big content marketing push at that time, which is great, and still is a valid marketing strategy. But we paired that with paid media, and that was kind of like the perfect Venn diagram of going, Okay, that's great that you can create content, but how do you amplify it? And then what's the creative behind it? And so that was, I think, what that linchpin between, I had a house rule, which is if you're going to spend, you know, $1,000, creating content, then you probably should, at least from one to one ratio spent $1,000, sending that content out, right, proliferate, like actually, like sharing that content, through paid ads, or whatever. And it's not a perfect role. But it ended up being a good rule. Because a lot of folks that were just in the content marketing game, at that point in time, didn't fully understand the power of paid ads, and advertising and amplifying that content. And so we, I think we quickly moved up in the rank amongst our peers in terms of like understanding and how to create an amplify a funnel, also under the tutelage of you mentioned Digital Marketer under the tutelage of Ryan deiss. And, and Richard Lindner and the crew there, so we kind of met up with them that stream throughout that and drank a ton of the digital marketer Kool Aid. And I'm glad I did it was it's been impactful for me and my career, went on have an opportunity to support them from the paid ads side of things actually run their ads for them in a later chapter, and really form a long, long term relationship with those guys. Marc Gutman 23:23 Yeah. And so you know, we'll fast forward a little bit. I know that you had tremendous success at this company, which was called Clymb Right? Is that the way it's spelled? Beau Haralson 23:33 Correct. Yeah, yeah. Marc Gutman 23:33 Yeah. Just really had a Yeah, the y threw me off. Right. And in your partner, you and Mike, I think Mike went off to do something else. You guys guys separated, but on good terms, and he went off to do something else. And you continue to, to grow the business? And then and then you sell the business? What happened there? Beau Haralson 23:52 Yeah. Yeah, it was interesting. So at the end of year four, we had an opportunity, unsolicited, actually, we had three opportunities coming on the business at the same time. And and just people saying, Hey, we love what you guys are doing. And we want to we want to buy it, we want to acquire it, we want to partner whatever. And we weren't hunting or shopping for any of this at the time, I'd read a book by john warrillow called Built to Sell early on which I highly recommended if you're creating anything, and you did, like, if you're a creative a bit like me, it'll drag you into systems thinking, which is great. And, and so I'd read that book, but kind of like, tucked it away, and also had to pull that book back out, you know, what do we do? And so Mike and I looked at each other, we had one of the opportunities was from a company down in Texas, and I love Texas, born in Texas, but I just wasn't in a hurry to make it transition back there. I'd worked pretty hard to get here in the state of Colorado and raise a family out here. And and so that was the that was the small minute detail that kind of introduced this idea of like, Okay, well, like we graduated our college and entrepreneurship we've been we've been doing this for four years, like cool. It's our senior year. So, so or excuse me, Mike and I had that conversation and like you said part of amicably and he ended up your work work with that company down in Texas for a little while. And that was great. And I took over complete ownership of climb, and ran it for a good another six to nine months, something to that effect, and one of those other suitors if you will continue to pursue me in that in that gap of time. And, and that was a local creative agency out here in Boulder called human and human ultimately acquired climb, I think six to nine months past that, that four year mark, where Mike and I separated. And it was, again, I got in, I think I'd had a dress rehearsal through of like, what the whole acquisition could look like, and, and got a taste of what the main act could look like. And, and really could see acceleration through through acquisition as part of my journey at the time. And I'm really glad that I stepped through that door. Yeah, and got through those conversations and had an exit. And, and, you know, I think it's not as common in the service industry. But I could write a, at least two or three chapters of a book on like, what I learned going through it. And, and I'm really glad I did, and was able to, you know, go through that process and provide for my family and get some level of, you know, like an exclamation point on, you know, four years of 60 and 80, and sometimes 100 hour weeks of just kind of pushing and working hard.

Yeah, you said you learned a ton. If you could share one thing that you learned out of out of that experience? What would it be? Or what do you share most often with people? Beau Haralson 27:45 Yeah, um, I mean, there's the really tactical stuff of like legal setups, and all those types of things, which I think you can you can google and find out and happy to do that. But more like a philosophical level, I think. The the way I learned this lesson was by nature of the birth of our first kiddo, so he Eli was born about two years into a four year stint, if you will, as an entrepreneur, and he was born two months early. And so we spent six weeks in the hospital with him. And it was a really intense six weeks, right, like, you know, I could answer emails, sometime at 10 o'clock at night. And it was, you know, we literally lived in the hospital with them. And it was really, really humbling, because I came out of that experience and thought, Man, I built this business for it to survive with me being in the room 60% of the time. And I can't be in the room 60% of the time, like, even if I want to, like there's life circumstances that come up. And so I sat down, and I wrote out all the things that I did on a week to week basis. And I literally just was like, Okay, what is that I can I delegate operationalize form, put a process around. And one of that's like the top 20%, that like, absolutely requires the, the me being in the room moment. And I cut out about 40% of what I did. And I operationalized it as best I could with Mike coming out of the hospital. And if I hadn't done that, I don't think we would ever accident to be honest. Because like, it just would have been a talent acquisition, and not like a company acquisition. And by nature building those processes. And they weren't perfect to begin with, but they got better and better. And we got better and better. We actually had something that was acquirable that people were interested in. And I think I had to lower some pride, right. I like to I like to be the Don Draper. I like to come in with creative ideas. I like to be that guy. And I think I have a knack for it. But but if that's the 20% and like, what's the other 80% that that is necessary, but not, you know, maybe a necessary evil is big. You know Like to that actually takes away from those creative moments or takes away from those impactful moments? And how can we, you know, so anyway, I could wax and wane on about that for a long time. But I think I'd encourage you, wherever you're at. No matter what business stage, I read a book called essentialism. Man, scrag McEwen. There it is, if you read the first chapter, it's great. But it just talks about the idea of writing yourself out of the job out of a job, and doing only the stuff that you're the best at, and delegating the best as the rest as best you can. So even if you're ever going to axe it or not, it's good practice. It's a good thing to get used to. And a good, good, good audit. And I'm glad that by nature of circumstance, I had to go through that audit the hard way to do it the easy way. don't end up in the hospital. Marc Gutman 30:54 Yeah, and thanks for sharing all that. I want to make sure we get to probably one of the more pivotal moments of your life in your career. And so you've, you've exited, you've been acquired by human at least from the outside, I'm you know, and I followed it. I was watching, I was like, How awesome is that? Right? Like you then like it elevated into some pretty sweet clients and opportunities and big name clients that I'll let you talk about if you want, but I'm looking at it. Like how cool is a strategist and a brand builder and a marketer? What an amazing opportunity exited into a really cool hit Colorado ad agency and brand building agency. But then, you know, life didn't get any less complicated for you did it? Beau Haralson 31:38 Sure. No. And I think like success is iterative. I think that people think that success is this like, man, if I could just like buy a Lamborghini one day, that would be like the marker of success for some people like some and that's great, man, if that motivates you, fast cars are cool, I get it, like, go for it. But I think like your definition of success can change every six months if it needs to. So you know, I'll start with kind of that, sign that human for, I think two years. And I think week one, I found myself like on a plane up to like Nike headquarters and stuff like that. And I was like, oh, okay, here we go. And I'd work with some like, fortune 1000 brands call it but not like fortune 50 or not like fortune 100. And I was like, Okay, all right, here we go. And so I bought a new pair of shoes, which was a good idea. And you know, like, just like, you know, all sudden were but it was what was ironic about the whole thing is that the conversations weren't that dissimilar of early stage startups. And I'll leave you with the I'll leave one concept one, one footnote of this whole experience is that the secret of what I think of working with big brands is that small brands want to be big. And big brands actually want to be small. And so like there's this interesting, like, kind of triangulation between these two things I saw on getting to work with small and big. And actually, I think that's pretty cool. But if you're a small brand, listening, and if you you know, maybe you're a challenger brand, or you're just kind of like in that early stage of creating that momentum, your greatest advantage is the fact that you're small. It's that you're nimble, that you can create these amazing relationships with your customers early on, and that's going to that's going to be what's creates raving fans. And the secret to the big guys, don't tell you is that they actually are kind of like, jealous might be the wrong word. But they, they study you and that's why you have these acquisitions of like Hormel and Justin's nut butter or watch Dollar Shave Club and what they've done over the last five to 10 years, they were a challenger brand not too long ago. Harry's fall we're talking about shaving has taken over like four feet of space and target they started as a DTC brand. But you know, I think small isn't a big, big, serious fall. Have fun with that one. But like I think that was the thing I learned is that I could take these small brands strategies, help them apply, apply them to bigger brands, and get them super excited about that. And here's the the one thing that was ultra exciting about that is that we could take some of those bigger brand budgets and apply those smaller challenger strategies to them and create a bit of jet fuel behind that success. So first, long I had the opportunity to work with I mean, World Expo and Dubai had an opportunity to inform a bit of the strategy behind the brand launched with LeBron James Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lindsey Vaughn, and Cindy Crawford, and got found myself in this really like interesting brand strategy role along with marketing in those hallways, and that was great. Here's the deal. I was in those hallways for a long time. And that's not a knock against the the brand specifically this agency specifically I have good friends across the agency environment and the hours are not normal hours. And a lot of that's just because a lot of folks and agencies care and they care about those brands, they're gonna they're gonna put in the hours to make sure that they show up. It is a competitive environment. There's about 15,000 small to midsize agencies in the US, there's probably about 100 200 Omnicom level, broader, bigger agencies, and every one of them that I've, you know, that I've had the opportunity to interact with, you know, in the trenches are all working dang hard. And I've got an amazing amount of respect for that. But to tee up the second part of that conversation, which is the transition of like, how to my version of success, my professional journeys been marked by my kids in a good way. But we got news at the 20 week appointment for our second kiddo, that she was going to be born with Spina Bifida. And there's a lot of different types of spina bifida, hers was on the spectrum of good to bad or like menial to like, not, hers is more on the not great side of things. So doctors looked at us in the eye and said, hey, there's 80% chance she's going to be born with some some level of cognitive cognitive issues and her hydrocephalus, she likely won't walk. And, you know, it's going to be a tough journey. And they asked us, they're like, do you want to go on this journey? I was like, Are you asking when I think you're asking like, yeah, we're in like, without hesitation, my wife and I like we definitely cried at the diagnosis, we had our moment. and work through that. And so we're working through that. But we're, we're in, right, and I'm kind of all in or all out type of guy. And and, and so let's see here tweeted, like 15 weeks later, 15 to 16 weeks later, she was a little bit early. We're on the roller coaster wife goes and labor. We just seen we just been in for an ultrasound that day. So I saw me in the womb, the day she was born. And and I actually asked the doctors like, hey, real talk. If Jenny goes and labor tonight, what do I do like burden at risk category, we live 45 minutes from children's, which is where the baby like person needs to be born with all the help and support available. Or we're like 20 or 30 minutes away from you. And she was like, didn't push it the extra 15 minutes, you'll avoid being on a helicopter and your daughter will avoid being on helicopter, like and being separated from mom. And I was like, Yeah, well, like that sounds great. So literally that night, Jenna went into labor. It's like 20 degrees out. If you live here in Colorado, you appreciate this. But there's a 470. And it's a toll road. Thankfully, and and so I pushed it 115 120 miles per hour on that thing and made that drive in like 2530 minutes. And and Jenna was I won't get into specifics, but she but she was it was it was time that Amy was nearly born in the car. So Amy was born, had surgery on her spine within 24 hours and then hung out in the hospital for another nine days. And my life changed forever. And the best of ways. And, and with that my career needed to change a bit too. But I knew that at that moment, you know, from a priority standpoint, in order, I wanted to be a great husband, and be a great dad. And if I had to be, quote, good businessmen. That was okay, I'd rather be like, I'd rather not be a great businessman, and a good husband and a good dad, or maybe potentially bad dad because I don't run out of hours. And so I reprioritize completely. And I don't regret a single bit of that. But I was working 80 hours a week at the time. And I just literally just started working 35 hours a week and hit my numbers and doing my things and it became apparent that you know, I needed to be in the trenches, we all need to be working on those light late night pitches together, etc. And I wasn't gonna be that guy anymore. And and so I just gracefully accepted stage left. And that was that was kind of our departure. And I don't regret a bit of that because I think a lot of people would say hey, like pursue the thing hustle like I love Gary Vee, I've had the opportunity to meet him and talk to him about work life balance, and, and he he actually is an inspiration for me in the context of I've asked him point blank, I said, hey, what would slow you down? And he said, If I had a medical need, or if there was something going on with my family that required me to be home, I said, Thank you, thank you. I didn't need his validation. But hustle culture can, I think get too turned up to too high. And so I turned my volume down. And that's been a good transition for me on the back end of that. So that's a bit long winded. But that's that's been my my journey. We can kind of end on the current chapter, if you'd like but any questions on that part of the journey? Marc Gutman 39:55 Yeah, no, I'd love to get into it. way deeper. We are running tight on time. I know that you have to To run along here. And so what I'd love for you to do is just let us know, you know, what's next for for Beau and Scale That like, what are you looking forward to? What are you most excited about right now? Beau Haralson 40:12 Yeah, um, so join forces with a good long term friend of mine, named Alex turned in about two years ago now. And we played to our strengths, right? So he's really good at paid media. I'm pretty good at creative. I've had the opportunity to shoot shoot national commercials and Facebook ads and all the things. And we said, hey, what would what would success in this chapter look like he had access to the agency prior as well. And so we kind of, you know, met up classic thing got out of napkin, and we said, hey, let's just take on a half dozen clients a year that have our cell phone number. And let's take really good care of them and say no to anything above that. And so we've got five or six private clients, private in the context that I can't share with you, I can share with you like one or two of their names. But I'm under NDA where I can't for the others, and we spend, you know, three to $5 million plus on advertising a month for those guys and take really good care of them. And when they have creative needs, and when they have other stuff that's coming up and business strategy stuff, we advise on those and take care folks as best we can. And so that's been a privilege to step into that it's right size, I get to be a dad, I get to be a therapy appointments, I get to be, you know, I've got to get my oldest to gym here in a minute. And that's I mean, that, for me is my definition of success. Ferrari or no Ferrari, I'm plenty happy with that. And we're moving the needle for folks and taking good care of our clients. And it's just been great. So I think there was like a, how can we help kind of nature of that, or what's kind of what's what's within that. So the business models pretty simple. Take care of a half dozen folks, we're moving in the consulting with whatever extra hours we have. So we're taking a group of clients that, quite honestly wouldn't be initial great fits for our direct service model. And we're gonna do some on ongoing coaching for folks that just need high level support, but have people in house to help execute. So we'll be unveiling that in the next probably 30 or 45 days. And we've built out some software in the background that helps people buy ads more effectively and efficiently, and took parts of Alex's brain and a bit of mine and had that all coated up. And so we'll be selling that software. Again, it's just about replicating what you can and, and then we're kind of in a mindset that if we don't share some of the success that we've been able to create for clients, it's actually been I mean, this was with no ego, but I had a good friend that was like, hey, it's kind of selfish not to share, you should start sharing how you help people. And that will help other people help other people. And I was like, Great, yeah, you're right, you win. So we're kind of pivoting to like, actually starting to share some of the stories that have, you know, typically been hidden in conference rooms and boardrooms of, you know, fortune 100 companies. And I'm excited to start sharing that a bit more and sharing how to how to make that impact. Marc Gutman 43:14 Great, well make sure you've let us know how we can help you share that where our listeners can find access to add or get more information or enroll in that in the ability to receive those stories and Beau as we come to a close here. You know, I'd like you to think back to that that boy in high school who is way in the the idea of being a youth pastor or a park ranger, and what do you think he'd say, if he saw you today? Beau Haralson 43:39 Hmm. He probably taught me to rest a bit more. But I think I think he'd also say like, um, you know, everything in it season is probably a good way to summarize that is like, hey, like, that's, that's great young Bo, that you have this, these these, like, your heart is excited about these things. Because oriented, be it like playing outside, but like, I think I've come to this conclusion that like, everything has its own little season, like, you know, dumped on us this weekend. And people were like, do you go skiing? And I'm like, Nah, man, I was hanging out with a two year old, like, that's fine. And I was happy to be. So I think a lot of people want success now. And they define it in a certain way. But I think you can, you can do both. And I think you can be patient and have your definition of success in its own season. And I think to be patient and that and to be discerning in that and to readjust and calibrate for that is probably what I would say to the young buck sitting there with this yearbook open was just like, Hey, be patient man, and pursue things fully, but like Be patient and don't pursue it all at once. Marc Gutman 44:51 And that is Beau Haralson, co founder of Scale That I've been following Bo's career over the years and in typical Beau fashion. He was very humble and understated about all the brands he's worked with, and his successes in the marketing space. Maybe we can get him back on the show for a round to brag session. There were so many nuggets in this one, but two that stood out to me. everyone finds their success in their own season. That is so true. And I think that if we just let that hang and resonate for a moment, you'll feel how impactful that insight is. And the other big standout idea was that big brands really want to be like small brands, and small brands have all the opportunity is there adaptable and nimble. You hear that small brands go out there and kick some big brand but a big thank you to Beau Haralson and the Scale That team I love your order of priorities and it is inspiring to hear how our business lives can be prioritized if we only ask, can I delegate this, we will link to all things Beau Haralson and Scale That in the show notes.

Are you old enough to have had one of those moments when you try to do something you, as we say in the south, used-ta-could, but suddenly realize y’ain’t-never-no-more? Now, I’ll get back to that question in a few seconds and let you ponder it while I make an aside about the two weird southern phrases you just read/heard. Used-ta-could. Jeff Foxworthy has touched on this one in his standup routine and I usually try not to use other people’s material, but I absolutely refuse to allow him to take sole ownership of that one. Used-ta-could has been in our Deep South vocabulary since Spot was a pup. What I mean by that is I was already using the term naturally, without being taught it, when I was still knee-high to a grasshopper. It’s in our DNA. And if you need a quick explanation about what it means so you can use this gem to add some color to your own conversation, it simply means this: Used - ta (Once upon a time) Could (I was able). And then there’s Y’ain’t-never-no-more. Pretty self explanatory, if you ask me. Y‘Ain’t (You are not) Never (never, ever) No-More (ever again.) Okay. I can move on now. When I was about as big as a June Bug on a jet plane, I thought I wanted to be a Hollywood stunt man. Those were the days when a group of friends could get together on a summer morning, hop on their bikes, and not show back up until mama called you for lunch. Mamas back then had the power to throw their voices over the whole neighborhood and you could magically pick out your mama’s voice amongst the rest of them. Then you were back out of sight until just before dark when the voices of the mamas began their final call. It was a daily routine that I remember with a smile on my face because I got to experience it, but also with a tear in my eye because the way the world’s gotten, it’s not something my children will ever get to enjoy. We got into all kinds of mischief, but mostly we jumped ramps and climbed trees. One friend would show up at the door and ask if you could come out and play. The two of you would build a ramp in a back yard with bricks and boards and you’d see who was brave enough to jump the highest. I figure the ramp jumping might have been a thing of the eighties and I blame Bo and Luke Duke for that. I think it was Friday nights that The Dukes of Hazzard came on, but the Duke boys proved that if it was jumpable, you could do it without ever getting hurt or damaging your vehicle. They also proved that evading the police and being an outlaw was cool and if you entered your car by jumping through the side windows, everyone would cheer and hang up posters of you. I found out that the people who owned the cars and were responsible for my safety didn’t cheer after all. They also didn’t like me taking off in a run and sliding across the front of the car to get to the other side. I found out I didn’t like it when I tried to do that once wearing shorts and it was hot as satan’s rectum. I remember getting a brand new bicycle for Christmas one year and my dad had decorated it with the colors and decals of the General Lee. The General Lee was the Dodge Charger the Duke boys drove and jumped over everything while they were being cool and evading the law. Sometimes their cousin who wore a tiny shirt tied together in the middle so it looked like a bikini top and basically a piece of string for shorts, rode with them. Dad smiled as I rode off on that bike. He said nothing other than to have fun because he knew that the stuff I’d get into probably paled in comparison to the fun and games he got into as a kid. Mom, on the other hand, had to give me the warnings you’d expect. That’s a new bike, Michael. Don’t ruin it by jumping ramps and ditches. I calmly tried to explain to her that bikes were made for jumping ramps. No, they’re made for riding with both wheels on the road. I calmly explained that Evel Knievel never touched the ground. You’re not Evel Knievel and I don’t want you jumping ramps or lines of cars. Or ditches. I calmly explained that I intended to be a Hollywood stunt man like John Schneider, or Tom Wopat, or Catherine Bach’s shorts and that I had to jump ramps and ditches if I wanted to be the best. Then I promised I wouldn’t jump stuff because she went to get a belt and I knew what that meant. I also knew I’d be out of sight and out of mind until lunch, so when the coast was clear we found the biggest pile of brinks we could and stacked them on one side of a giant ditch. We laid a board on top of them and I dared my sister, who was just as much a Duke Boys fan as I was and could climb a tree higher than I could, to go first. She got on her bike and starting from all the way across the yard, going downhill, cut through the crisp winter air and hit the ramp dead center. She flew through the air like an eagle and let out the signature Duke Boys yell. YEEEEEEE HAAAAWWWW! She cleared the ditch, landed in the road, and skidded her bike around to a stop like a pro. I couldn’t wait to try out my new Dukes of Hazzard bike. I rode it up to the house at the top of the hill, kicked the pedals forward and suddenly, I, too, was heading downhill toward the ramp and the ditch beyond it. I felt the cold wind sting my cheeks and Jack Frost nipping at my nose. There were tall pines all around us and I could smell those mixed in with the scent of victory and glory and the mountaintop that was becoming equal with the Duke Boys. The air was sol cold, in fact, that it started to make my eyes water just as I got to the ramp and I couldn’t see. I hit the ramp and an odd angle my brand new Dukes-of-Hazzard-General-Lee-Now-I’m-A-Duke-Boy bicycle went airborne in a way that didn’t excite me. There was emotion, all right, but it wasn’t what I’d hoped for and my yell wasn’t exactly the triumphant YEE HAW my sister had made. It was more like, YEEE-AHHHHHHH! I think I landed wheels down, but sideways, which sent me tumbling, but not far, into the road. It wasn’t far because when I landed, somehow my right ankle had jammed into the spokes of the front wheel with the impact and got caught there. As I lay there in the middle of the road, my sister rushed up and helped me get my foot out of the wheel while I howled like a banshee, then she helped me to the house. I’m pretty sure she dismantled the ramp and we told mama that I’d fallen over while we were riding with both wheels on the ground. Years later, I see my mama’s wisdom in her warning and have seen that it doesn’t matter when it comes to your children thinking they know better than you. It’ll never matter. My mom gave my son a pair of those shoes with wheels in the heels of them a couple of years ago and he went skating everywhere. We were getting in the car at the local theater after a rehearsal and Noah went skating across a rather steep downgrade in the pavement, so of course, I made him stop. Don’t do that, son. If you stop quick, you’ll shoot forward and land on your face. But all the other kids have these and they’re great at it. I need to practice so I can be the best. The next day, can you guess what happened? Yeah. Face first in the pavement and as soon as I made sure he’d be okay, I said I told you so, proving that even the Duke Boys ain’t smarter than their parents.

Coltrane's illegal shipment of slot machines, then plan to use the proceeds to donate to the Hazzard County Orphanage in Rosco's name, to ensure his win in an upcoming election against a corrupt opponent. Has it's our 150th we do a short quiz which I (Brian) fact checked and my co host Paul did not.

At long last, and after multiple thoughtful, then insisting, then kinda nagging, followed by one semi-angry request, we have bowed to the request of the masses and reviewed the 1987 made-for-TV movie "Christmas Comes to Willow Creek." It's the best Christmas movie ever featuring Bo and Luke Duke. Only they're not supposed to be Bo and Luke, even thought they're played by Tom Wopat and John Schneider. And they're not named Bo and Luke, but I can't remember what they are named here - so lets just stick with Bo and Luke. And frankly....it's not that great of a movie. But hey, it's Bo and Luke on screen together! Anyway, here's the summary. Bo and Luke are night and day different and are brothers (not cousins). Bo steals Luke's girlfriend, marries her, gets her pregnant, then wants nothing to do with fatherhood or being an adult. Luke is an adult and responsible for everything in the universe and everyone in it. And they both work at the same place for the same guy driving semi trucks. Their boss is guy is played by a country music singer, but his character needs to send a truckload of presents to his broke home-town in Alaska that desperately needs something to go right, just in time for Christmas. Bo's baby is born along the way, delivered by a mysterious shepherd in a snowstorm on Christmas Eve. The shepherd turns out to be an angel. It all works out in the end and Bo starts a chili company.

What happened when Warner Bros. tried to replace Bo and Luke Duke with Coy and Vance Duke!
One of the greatest things about elementary school was the school cafeteria. The smells, the lighting, the squat milk cartons, and the sounds of metal lunchboxes opening somewhat simultaneously. As the latches released and the hinges creaked, the anticipation grew as kids looked inside to see what their moms had packed for them. Just wait till you see what the ‘Dads have packed into this episode of TechnoRetro Dads. In the NEWS TRON > DATA Weird Al virtually has a Shady Neighbor The Big Trouble continues in Little China Doctor Who enters a galaxy far, far away We Love Our Cereal… Roth in Wyoming @ The Cereal Box, Inc. Froot Loops clothing (Roving Spoonster) “Healthy cereals” (Roving Spoonster) Pop Tarts cereal (Roving Spoonster) https://youtu.be/8GFeHrENnfQ School Lunch: Lunchboxes and Snack Cakes JediShua consumes the calories of some of the ‘Dads’ favorite snacks from their school days after discussing the history of lunchboxes (metal, vinyl, and plastic), their own lunchboxes, and the lunchboxes of several EarBuds. From Mickey Mouse to Hopalong Cassidy to Luke Skywalker and Luke Duke, the cafeteria was a funner place (yes, Shua said, “funner”) with the heavily decorated lunchboxes of days gone by. With input from Puddingsbane, Chris the Arvadinian, Jedi Holmes, Shane in GR, Courtney Martin, Joe Tavano, Fettmatic, Kendall Shroeder, and Bill from DorkLair, our virtual lunchboxes are filled with Vinyl Scratchback This week in 1978 and 1988 had some memorable hits from Olivia Newton-John, Huey Lewis and the News, Robert Palmer, Whitney Houston, and George Michael. Both shazbazzar and JediShua show their knowledge and lack thereof regarding these artists, their songs, and the videos. Thanks for tuning in to TechnoRetro Dads, EarBuds!

When the premise of your episode is a set of fake Bo and Luke's with a fake General Lee it truly cannot get any better without receiving an R-rating somehow. Here's the gist of it all: Boss Hogg hires two dudes to literally portray Bo and Luke Duke. He has professional masks and wigs made so that these fakers will look just like the real McCoy, all so that they can publicly rob the bank and leave a trail of both shock and awed public eyewitnesses. He even gets his fake fakers a fake General Lee that will magically have to fight the real General Lee to the death. Here's a clue fake General Lee: Real General Lee always wins! Paul Baxley directed this episode and it's loaded with a terrible plot and spectacular stunts, just as God intended. 10 Corndogs all around! The post K&F Show #71: Super Fake Double Duke Boys with a Fake General Lee; Our Review of S4 Episode 2 of the Dukes of Hazzard! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.
Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about people who sweep the house for intruders when they get home, new trend of people dressing like ninjas to commit crimes, a day care worker in trouble for playing with sex toys on the job, Ben Affleck accused of giving someone the “Luke Duke,” a comic book store shoplifter that jumped out a second story window to escape, parents who left their 3 year old inside a corn maze and didn't realize it, what made you say “Well that got out of hand,” a man that was stabbed in the heart and walked to the hospital with the blade in his chest, why you should put a raw egg in your coffee, an idiot criminal that googled “how to rob a bank” before he robbed a bank, and more!
Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about a guy running for mayor that was accused of jerking off in the back of seat of his Uber ride, a 125 people that “paid it forward” at a fast food drive thru, Luke Duke is up to no good again, a Netflix scam to be on the lookout for, a dude that got locked in a cave for 3 days, what happened to a woman that smoked weed for 5 hours, a Swedish woman who has a 70 inch butt, what made you say “What the eff a-hole!?!' an 18 year old that stole a police uniform & car then responded to a call just to impress a girl, just how dirty gym equipment is, the average time spent on the toilet, and more!
Ol' Luke Duke was at it again... and this time, it's even worse.

Visit BOMBFELL.COM/KAFS to get started browsing with our $25 discount! Dukes Review: This show has a perfect plot. It starts out with an awesome General Lee jump, and ends with the most epic one ever...with the General going through the ROOF of a second story barn, trapping the bad guys, hurting nary a soul, and bringing the Dukes Boys back to safety. Everything that happens in between is mostly filler. So, here's the filler: Luke gets blackmailed into boxing a legit fighter in order to pay off a debt to Boss that (if unpaid) will cost the Dukes the farm. Again. Luke doesn't want to do it, because his was so awesome at boxing in the Marines that he nearly killed someone with his awesomeness. Uncle Jesse tells him to get himself together and either to quit or fight. Luke wins, his alter ego somehow ends up dates the ring girl of the fight, humanity is saved, and the General jumps. Hijinks ensue. The post K&F Show #42: In This Corner, Luke Duke – S3 Episode 4 of The Dukes of Hazzard!….and Meet our First Advertiser Ever, Bombfell! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.
