Willie Robertson Gave Himself a Concussion & Uncle Si Loved Every Minute of It | Duck Call Room

Uncle Si and Big Dave, John-David’s dad, compare stories from their military experiences, which prompts Si to fondly relive his time at basic training. Big Dave reveals that he used to work with Willie and expected that he wouldn’t amount to much, though Big Dave is happy he was proven wrong! Nothing fires Martin and John-David up like talking about fried food and Big Dave holds the title of master fryer and outdoor cooking guru. The boys give advice to a fan who coincidentally asks for advice about running his own fishing and tackle shop.

Uncle Si has, no doubt, helped to save my Life! I served 12 years as a Combat Engineer in the Army, including 28 months of combat, in Iraq. I have unfortunately lost more friends to suicide, than I lost in combat. That fact combined with me just not fitting in, and I was ready to check out, myself. However, Si’s simplistic approach to life, along with his Faith in Christ Jesus, was enough to reach through and make All the Difference! I listened to him when I wouldn’t hear Anyone else. God Bless and Godspeed to my Brother In Arms and In Christ, Silas Robertson!!

Si has a book called Si-Cology 101. It tells his life story and is good. From about 10 years ago.

[@lauratarkenton4869]

I remember gun racks with guns in the truck when I was a kid. My dad had one. I’m only 50 so that was at least the 1970’s can’t remember if he would still do that in the 80’s because he didn’t hunt much the older I got.

[@stephenkarla7113]

Enjoy hearing Si telling about the good days. I remember the international trucks. Gears in the floor and you learned how to drive them at seven. The truck bed had to keep up with that auger on the combine slinging wheat or corn into the back of the truck you're driving. Don't let any wheat or corn hit the ground or you'd get a chewing out. The farmers soon realize it's gonna happen a few times with kids. I miss those days.

Yeah, my dad used to well and I sat down watching the sparks hit his chess with the shirt on. He had hair on his chest and sometimes they’ll burn his hair on his chest. It was crazy. He said Sonia would do. It never wears a shirt with a pocket it never put a cigarette lighter in your shirt pocket cause it will blow up.

[@angeliadurrett2852]

My parent's was born in 1931 and 1937 and the way i was raised vs the way that some of the people i know were raised are very different. My dad was stationed in germany for a years himself so what you say about that being a different generation is very true

[@Bobby.lemonade]

I was a method addict for 7 years I started at 15, yall talking about numbing the anger hit my heart. Since I stopped my rage mode kicks in constantly, plus I'm working through college on 3 hours of sleep many days. Anger and hate are probably top three struggles for me as a person tryna recover from what I've done to myself

[@MG-fx1sj]

It sounds like you are putting a lot on yourself right now, sleep is important not just for you physically but mentally as well. Is there something you can set down for now to give you more time to focus on you. There are many videos on KZbin to practice relaxation, deep breathing, meditation, yoga,deep pressure techniques all are very helpful in retraining your mind to stay calm. Remember anger is often a protective reaction rather than feeling the emotion the situation triggers. When you feel yourself start to anger, stop, take a deep breath and slowly release, focus on your breathing and walk through why the situation is triggering you, face those emotions, face the hurt, that is where you will find healing. Prayers of strength for you, you can do this!

[@kayobrien2145]

I love these guys and all the stories 💕💕💕

[@kenny6363]

JD actually acted like a sane mature adult (because his dad was there)

[@vanmoody]

When Big Dave mentioned Kory's family it reminded me that when Phil kicked Miss Kay out of the house she ended up getting a job at Howard Publishing which was a business Kory's family owned. It is very sweet that these families were involved before Willie and Kory got together.

[@MaineBornRedneck]

Uncle Si, Fort Benning hadn’t changed much in regards to running everywhere when I went through Basic there in 2011, not very much of the so called walking done at Fort Benning’s school for boys. Thank you for Your Service Uncle Si, you and your fellow Vietnam Brothers didn’t get the gratitude you deserved, I have an Uncle who served in Vietnam and unfortunately he passed due to complications from Agent Orange. From this OEF veteran your service is greatly appreciated! Thank you all for what you do and I enjoy the podcast every week.

[@duncanhughes2676]

The great Joe Walsh of the Eagles always says at a concert, "I had more fun being 20 in the 70's than I do being 70 in the 20's." Uncle Si reminded me of that when he said if could go back he'd go to that time because it was the best years of his life.

Hello Guys...Listening to you talk about my parents generation and my generation brings back memories. My father- in- law owned his own paint and body shop besides working for BF Goodrich. He would weld or work on an engine with no shirt on. I heard a couple of weeks ago that mens Testosterone levels were higher back then and it shows how much its dropped when you compare the male generation of today. Really enjoyed the Podcast tonight.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let the guests talk😫😫😫 I think maybe Si doesnt think about the fact that we dont know these people, and we WANT to. We hear about Big Dave, Burly, etc. When we see one of them is on the podcast, we get excited to get to know them. But Si monopolizes the conversation. I fast forward through the majority of these guest episodes because Si wont let them talk. I ADORE Si, but PLEEEEEZE have a conversation with him about this❤

[@godawgs689]

Uncle si usually low key and only talk when asked something. When they have a guest he hijacks the whole show lol.

[@jeeps_]

I have noticed EXACTLY the same thing. He usually just repeats the last two words of someone else’s sentences…but EVERY time there is a guest, Si never lets the guest talk. And 9 times out of 10 they are the same stories for the 50th (or more) time. I love Si, but I would love to hear the guests speak.

[@godawgs689]

@@jeeps_ agreed

[@BADXD40]

Finally, we got Johnny d's dad on Dave. Unfortunately, si was there too so he could overtalk and make sure that he got more of the spotlight than the guest did. He does it every time. I hope one guys day you guys figure out that he does not hold that podcast together. I have no hate, but he's ruining a lot of things like I said before. There's a difference between a good storyteller and a bold faced attention-getting liar!

[@user-jp2lz6uw3i]

You need to gag Si so the guest can talk we never get to hear the guest.

[@trichomeking72]

This is two or three episodes in a row where they let uncle Si talk a little too much. When he gets on a tangent he just rambles

[@BADXD40]

I love Uncle si, but I'm sorry. It's getting old every time you have a guest. Hes got an over talk em and not let them be the star. Hes always gotta be the center of attention. Cause you guys have made him think that the only reason you have a podcast is because of him and that couldn't be any more wrong. One of you guys gotta say something.

[@Eric_Eric_Eric]

He’s telling big Dave stories, don’t listen then, because it’s the reason the Robertsons made millions because people like to hear them.

[@godawgs689]

I agree, man. Can't ever get the end of the story from a guest before si hijacks the show, lol.

[@jeeps_]

I LOVE Uncle Si, but he does this to EVERY guest. I would have LOVED to hear more about JD’s Dad, but SI had to do all the talking. No one has to hurt his feelings, just let him know that the followers WANT to hear what guests have to say. And to the person saying he was telling Big Dave stories, you are wrong…it was all SI stories! I finally just had to turn it off in the third segment when Uncle Si was still talking about himself. I love you Si, but let your guests have a word.

[@BADXD40]

JD must take after his Mom. His Dad is waaay more manly than he ever thought about being. JD is the kid that was on the cheer squad or flags in the band. Girlie type! JDs dad…find him something to do, cause he stinks (literally) up the podcast! When JDs was talking about Willie never amounting to anything, I wonder if he felt the same way about JD? The only thing JD could do would be eat, stink, and maybe do Tampax or PMS commercials!
