    41. Litterbugs and Low Water Crossings

    Give us feedback I’ll read it myself! Fireworks are expensive, dogs hate them, and somehow we all do it again the next year. We’re recording on July 5th, so the holiday afterglow is still strong and the takes are still hot: celebrating America with Mexican national friends, the way bilingual groups naturally switch languages, and why that kind of mixed table feels more real than any flag graphic online. Then we get into the big question everyone’s seeing lately: should drone shows replace fireworks, and does it feel safer or just less… American?  From there, we bounce between small-town reality and internet noise. We vent about Uvalde traffic and road construction, the simple need for someone to direct cars when streets get shut down, and the kind of social media posts that try to paint the whole country with the worst brush possible. We also take a hard left into pure joy: driving a classic 1969 Oldsmobile Delta 88 convertible, top down, and realizing not much built today can match that feeling.  The most serious moment hits when we talk about law enforcement taking over our OG Motors parking lot during a long stop and how bad the optics are for a new small business. We round it out with local food talk, CB radio nostalgia, a CrossFit challenge, a wild reality show idea about deportation, and our dream of a real destination barbecue spot in Uvalde.

    Ep. 40: Gizzard Fest 2026

    Give us feedback I’ll read it myself! Vacation is supposed to reset you, but sometimes it just exposes all your worst habits. We get back to real life and immediately start unpacking it all: Cancun resort food wins, hobbies still do not exist, and the one thing we actually learned is that buffet discipline is a myth. From steak and tamales to rice and beans, we talk comfort food, travel routines, and why some of us would rather sit quietly and people-watch than chase “vacation activities.” Things take a hard turn into numbers and narratives when we look up heat-related deaths in the European Union and compare them to gun-related deaths in the United States. That sparks a wider argument about air conditioning, infrastructure, personal responsibility, and why the internet turns every statistic into a culture war. If you like episodes where a dumb joke can become a serious point in thirty seconds, this one lives there. After that, it is pure real-life chaos in the best way: boutique iced tea shops, fast food apps, Waffle House crowd psychology, streaming services that keep deleting the only thing you wanted to watch, and a genuine fear that AI convenience is slowly turning everyone into helpless zombies. We also get into Florida wildlife, a bear in a hotel parking lot, and what happens when rescuing a dog turns into an $802 vet bill.

    Sunday Scaries

    Give us feedback I’ll read it myself! Sunday afternoons are for telling the truth, even when the truth is “Ruby’s was fun and now I feel like garbage.” We start with the Sunday scaries, smoky-bar nostalgia, and the kind of small-town shoutouts that make Uvalde feel like a neighborhood, then immediately swerve into the stuff we can’t stop thinking about: why fast food costs so much now, why a bathroom door handle can ruin your day, and why the simplest routines are the ones that keep you sane.  Then we go big: Tesla robots, the dream of tech that actually helps your parents at home, and the very real push to build an internal business AI that knows the company like your best long-time employee. That futuristic talk snaps back to reality with shop safety and fire extinguishers, because nothing kills productivity like your boot almost catching fire.  The middle gets messy the way the internet gets messy. We talk conspiracy feeds, rage content, and how online culture can twist into something dark if you don’t pull yourself out. From there it’s back to real, hands-on life: restoring a Scout, building things to last, dreaming about a freshwater aquarium as the ultimate stress reset, arguing about chorizo, and settling the eternal Texas BBQ question when you can only pick one meat. We wrap with dealership updates, travel ideas, and how quickly major news fades from the cycle.  If you like a conversational Texas podcast with small business energy, car dealership stories, and the occasional deep thought hiding inside a joke, hit subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave us a review.

    38. Quit Your Job, Sell Your Truck, Then Hit Ruby’s

    Give us feedback I’ll read it myself! A washed-out road after a brutal rainstorm kicks off a bigger question: how much of life is planning, and how much is just surviving whatever hits next? We start with pure Thursday-night chaos, local shoutouts, and the kind of unfiltered small-town Texas talk that jumps from Ruby’s to steak sauce to the realities of getting anything done when you’re tired and nobody wants to edit.  Then the conversation gets real. We break down flash flooding and low water crossings, why a project can be built correctly and still get wrecked overnight, and why “turn around, don’t drown” is advice you can’t ignore. From there it’s a hard left into work and money: quitting a job, selling a truck fast through Carvana, and pouring that cash into restoring a classic Scout so it looks like 1978 again. If you’re into used trucks, car selling tips, classic 4x4 builds, or the weirdness of the truck market, you’ll feel this part.  We also go straight at modern internet culture: summer posting, influencer links, and where “sharing” starts to look like oversharing. Finally, we land on AI productivity and how tools like ChatGPT can turn a vague message into step-by-step clarity faster than people who should already know the process.

    Ep. 37 One Year In 🎂

    Give us feedback I’ll read it myself! One year in, we’re still doing what we do best: taking whatever everyone’s talking about and dragging it into the light until the common sense shows up. We start by looking back at the consistency it takes to keep a podcast alive, shouting out the local spots that support us, and then we get into a story that’s hard to shake a teen killed at a Texas track meet after a confrontation in a tent. It turns into a real conversation about consequences, fear, and how fast a normal day can flip when somebody brings a weapon into it. From there, it’s the full NegPod mixtape: Spurs and Knicks crowd energy, why some fans act like they own the building, and how silence hits different when a game slips away late. We also hit the big internet swirl of UFO documents, the nonstop rain, the aquifer question, and a surprisingly practical breakdown of how water towers and city pressure actually work. Then we get into modern “solutions” that don’t feel like solutions: self checkout lanes, viral Kool Aid pineapple as an EBT workaround, and why bad systems turn regular people into petty philosophers at the register. The deeper thread is money and competence. We talk about the old Hank Hill style economy, what jobs used to buy, why everything feels expensive now, and what automation and driverless trucks could do to working life next. We also call out predatory auto loans and the way regulation can create barriers that only bankers and lawyers know how to play around. Add in distracted driving paranoia, location sharing, manners in fast food, and a little Dairy Queen honesty, and you’ve got an hour of the stuff people actually argue about when the mics are off. If you laughed, got mad, or nodded along, subscribe so you don’t miss the next one, share it with a friend who’ll fight you about it, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

    36. Screw Worms And Sunjoys

    Give us feedback I’ll read it myself! A youth track meet somehow turns into a lesson about crowds, stress, and why modern life can feel like one long line with no personal space. From there we take a hard left into a topic that sounds like a joke until it isn’t: screw worms. We talk through what they are, why ranchers and wildlife managers worry, and how fast a “that’ll never happen here” problem can become a real biosecurity scare. We also get into labor and immigration from a working-person angle, including a story about a tech founder who loses his status after selling a company, plus a blunt debate about the H1B system and how rules hit real lives. Then we lighten it up with peak everyday culture: buying underwear online, the strange corner of marketplace selling, and a drive-thru moment that sparks a full rant about language, branding, and why an Arnold Palmer suddenly has a new name. The second half brings a Germany travel story, AI tools being blocked on office Wi-Fi, and viral trucking claims that raise questions about enforcement and what people will believe online. We touch politics, cartel economics tied to American drug demand, gun culture, and the quiet trade we keep making with surveillance. We close on workplace safety after a tragic training accident, sports misery, family life, and a quick update on the dealership and what’s next.

    Ep. 35: Stateside w/ Victoria Dühring

    Give us feedback I’ll read it myself! We bounce from small-town Uvalde life into big questions about politics, technology, and what people really owe their community. Victoria Duran joins us to talk about running for Uvalde County judge, taking criticism in public, and staying grounded after the votes are counted.  • sponsors, breakfast talk, and catching up after travel  • car lot licensing progress, old vehicles, and why new tech feels intrusive  • trucking rates, cargo theft stories, and how fast rumors become “truth” online  • language gaps, Europe travel culture, and AI translation glasses in the real world  • school bond drama, budget trouble, and what close votes do to public trust  • policing expectations, DPS stops, and frustration with government efficiency  • campaign life with Victoria, from background and motivations to voter perception  • losing with grace, supporting the winner, and holding leaders accountable  • precision rifle shooting and PRS basics, costs, wind, and local match access  • privacy, surveillance, geofencing ads, and the trade between convenience and freedom  If you want to drop me a line, go to stephenmcnew.com and you can email me.  Support the show Sponsored by:  Ziggy’s Taxidermy  ziggystaxidermy.com Ruby’s Lounge, Uvalde, TX https://www.instagram.com/therubyslounge?igsh=eHN0dWx6cmhtNTk= River City Bail Bonds +1 210 271 7700

    34: Go Inside For The Blizzard

    Give us feedback I’ll read it myself! A missing front license plate turns into a full-blown roadside philosophy session when a trooper plays games on the highway, pulls us over, and we decide we’re done pretending that every petty stop is “worth everyone’s time.” That story becomes the backbone of a wider conversation about modern stress: public safety scares, small-town rumor cycles, and how fast your normal errands can get derailed when Walmart gets locked down over a shooter threat. We also keep it local and loud, shouting out the people and places that keep our corner of South Texas running, including River City Bail Bonds, Ruby’s Lounge, Sapphire Wings, and Diamond Cut Masonry. Along the way we argue about the stuff everyone argues about but rarely says out loud: why phone customers shouldn’t jump the line, why ordering black coffee at Starbucks feels harder than ordering a dessert potion, and why driving slower can actually save real money when gas prices are brutal. Then we go full Negpod with people watching, Whataburger characters, internet rabbit holes, fishing shirts, and defending catfish like it’s a civic duty. We wrap with small-town politics and community updates, plus weekend plans and sponsor love.
