🎙️ Group Chat Podcast: Rank Dat: Summer Vacation | “Bathroom Breaks, Beach Chairs, and Bad Directions — Dads Aren’t Okay”

🎙️ Group Chat Podcast: Rank Dat | Summer Vacation & Dad Blow Up Moments 

The Group Chat Podcast gets a little more chaotic with the official debut of Turtle joining Casey, Damien, and Nick for this week’s edition of Rank Dat — and this one’s hotter than the inside of a black SUV in July.

This episode, we rank the most iconic summer vacation moments — from beach chair battles and airline mimosa traditions, to dad meltdowns triggered by Bluetooth issues and vague directions like “turn by that cute coffee shop we went to 5 years ago.”

Plus:

• An emotional tribute to the legend Ozzy Osbourne and our Top 3 Ozzy/Sabbath songs

• The great Wi-Fi password debate

• The Dad Olympics of “Who Can Start the Car First?”

• And a full-blown breakdown of when, where, and why dads lose their minds on vacation

Turtle jumps right in and fits in like a rogue beach umbrella in a windstorm. This one’s got laughs, relatable rants, and a little unintentional marriage counseling.

Closing Thoughts:
We're sweaty. We're tired. And we're still not over being told, “you should’ve gone before we left.”

 

🎧 Tune in now. New co-host, same dysfunction.

🎙️ Group Chat Podcast (EP:14) | Wrestling Returns, Pacquiao's Still Got It & Teddy Gets Screwed

🎙️ Group Chat Podcast – Wrestling Returns, Pacquiao's Still Got It & Teddy Gets Screwed

This week’s Group Chat Podcast is as chaotic as a Gulf State Wrestling brawl and twice as entertaining.

🌀 Two GCP Hall of Famers come out of retirement (kind of) at Gulf State Wrestling and land some stiff shots in front of a packed house. Did we plan it? Not really. Will we do it again? That depends on how bad our knees hurt tomorrow.

🥊 We break down Manny Pacquiao’s return to the ring at age 46, the heavyweight Usyk-Dubois rematch, and the Poirier-Holloway UFC showdown in New Orleans. Plus, is Power Slap the most ridiculous combat sport of all time—or is it secretly awesome?

🏈 Brian Kelly is putting a big bullseye on LSU’s back after SEC Media Days. He says this is the most talented roster he's had… so what happens if they don’t make the playoff?

🔥 We also go off about Teddy Bridgewater’s insane coaching suspension, Elmo’s Twitter heel turn, Cooper Flagg’s cursed summer league undershirt, and why the Pelicans training staff might be cursed by voodoo.

Group Chat Podcast: Not Mott's Mailbag (EP:13) | Saban Back to BR, Shaq Needs to STFU, Nuss Buss Has Full Tank, Proper Way to Flake Out & Hurricane Snacks

It’s everybody’s favorite unhinged segment: Not Mott’s Mailbag, proudly sponsored by the Lafourche Parish Concert & Events Club (because who better to sponsor our chaos than people who throw bangers for a living?).

This week, the mailbag is overflowing with questions that take us from SEC expansion hot takes (yes, Tulane caught a stray) to Nussmeier for Heisman chants, the proper etiquette for flaking on friends’ plans, hurricane snack power rankings, and if RGIII really wants Shaq to drop the hammer.

We also debate:

🏈 Should Nick Saban un-retire to coach LSU?
⚾ Who’s winning the Group Chat Home Run Derby?
💦 Which community pool was the GOAT in Lafourche Parish?
🥪 And what snack survives the apocalypse better—Little Debbies or sunflower seeds?

It’s reckless. It’s petty. It’s everything you expect from us.

Group Chat Podcast | Rank Dat: Hurricane Prep Edition | Box Fans, Bob Breck, Potted Meat and Raw Dogged Green Beans

Its hurricane season and the Group Chat Podcast boys hunker down for an episode that’s equal parts heartfelt, hilarious, and downright questionable (looking at you, raw dogged green beans). From sharing stories of past storms—both the terrifying and the downright ridiculous—to debating the ultimate hurricane survival meals, this episode captures the spirit of DTB resilience and community.

Casey, Damien, Nick, and Tommy swap their wildest evacuation memories (yes, including shady motels, canned Budweiser water, and Seinfeld marathons) while ranking the most annoying hurricane clichés of all time. Plus, they get real about how the Down the Bayou community always comes together post-storm—feeding neighbors, clearing debris, and out-hustling FEMA at every turn.

And of course, it wouldn’t be a Group Chat Podcast without a food fight: potted meat vs. Vienna sausage, chili over noodles, and why grandma’s freezer stash might just be the secret weapon of hurricane prep.

The love for Clifton Billiot is real in this episode. If the Group Chat Podcast had a spirit animal, it’d be Clifton Billiot. This legend dropped a show-stopping line—“I drink beer and laugh at that, me”—and instantly became a folk hero for anyone who knows how to find joy during the storm. 

So grab your box fan, your PlayStation, and maybe a cold beer, and ride out this episode with the crew. Just remember—don’t do anything stupid on the roads.

🔥 Group Chat Podcast: Not Mott's Mailbag (EP:12) | “Daiquiris, Debacles, and Down the Bayou Conspiracies”🔥

🔥 Group Chat Podcast - Live: NotMots Mailbag Madness 🔥

It’s time for everybody’s favorite part of the show—the NotMots Mailbag, brought to you by the Lafourche Concert and Events Club (thanks for keeping us alive and caffeinated). The inbox was STACKED this week, and as usual, we went completely off the rails answering your questions.

We debated:
👙 Swimwear etiquette – mesh liner, compression shorts, or freeballing like a psychopath?
🍻 Post-yardwork recovery – beer, popsicles, or pool dives?
🏀 How many rounds could we survive in a global 8 billion-person basketball tourney? (Spoiler: Tommy’s out early)
🥃 Best daiquiris in Louisiana drive-thrus – Mighty 190s, dead ducks, and questionable decision-making.
🥩 Boudin battles – Bayou vs Lafayette edition.
💥 Mysterious booms Down the Bayou – sonic booms, swamp gas, or government cover-ups?
⚾️ Aaron Boone’s analytics – is he wasting Judge’s prime, or is Marcus from LCO just mad online?
🎣 Fishing trips & chaos – can we PLEASE plan something without an argument?

We also sprinkled in thoughts on Big Ramp’s Gulf State Wrestling antics, whether Les Miles could win a title with Joe Burrow, and one very spicy hypothetical involving Angel Reese.

For a live mailbag full of belly laughs, bad opinions, and boudin Pop-Tarts… press play now

🎙️ Group Chat Podcast: Mott’s Mailbag (EP:11) | Fireworks, Food Fights & Conspiracies 🎆

🎙️ Mott’s Mailbag - Episode 11: Fireworks, Food Fights & Conspiracies 🎆

It’s Independence Day week, and the Mailbag is loaded with more fireworks than a Dudley Do-Right Roman candle. The guys tackle Louisiana TikTok legends catering your 4th of July cookout (will Stalekracker’s “Dat’s Money Dude” win over Cajun Ninja’s charm?), debate which 4th of July food deserves to be banned, and relive their favorite backyard fireworks—whether sky-filling beauties or M80 hand grenades.

The crew debates:

🍗 Which Louisiana TikTok chef is running your 4th of July cookout—Stalekracker with his “Dat’s Money Dude” energy or Ralph the Baker bringing the wine sauce heat?
🌭 The most overrated 4th of July food (spoiler: someone’s coming for your potato salad).
💥 Childhood firework favorites—were you a pretty-sky guy or an M80-in-the-mailbox menace?
🌎 What country would you vacation to if America wasn’t, you know…America?
📱 Are smartphones killing childhood faster than Damien’s golf scores kill confidence?
🏀 Could an NBA player make an NFL roster with 6 months of training?
👽 And if you could uncover the truth behind ANY conspiracy, which one are you solving first?

Plus Big Steve wants to know:
Who’s most likely to call Damien for a job, Nick for a shirt, Casey for a story, and Tommy for legal advice after launching Roman candles at their neighbor’s boat?

It’s chaotic. It’s patriotic. It’s probably not safe to play at family BBQs.

📲 Listen now wherever you get your podcasts and let the debate begin.

Group Chat Podcast (EP:13) | 🎙️ Group Chat Podcast: Stars, Stripes & Scandals | Raw Edit | NBA Players Gambling, Boxing Weekend Review, 4th of July Dream Teams

🎙️ Group Chat Podcast: Stars, Stripes & Scandals (Ep:13)

We apologize about the jacked up audio, this episode is 100% RAW CUT!

This week’s episode is hotter than a 4th of July grill. The guys kick things off with the latest drama as the feds reportedly investigate Malik Beasley over gambling ties—wild times in the NBA. Then it’s fight night talk with a boxing roundup covering Jake Paul’s latest antics and Deontay Wilder’s future.

We dive headfirst into all things 4th of July: Joey Chestnut’s return to the Nathan’s Hot Dog Contest (are we watching or are we grossed out?), plus the crew debates their ultimate patriotic playlists and wrestlers with the most “stars & stripes” energy.

The Dad Draft results are in, and Nick’s running victory laps while Tommy is… well, bringing up the rear. And we round it out with a full-blown barbecue fantasy draft: if states were guests at your cookout, what are they bringing? And which 3 pro athletes would run your dream BBQ squad?

Grab a plate, crack a cold one, and tune in—this one’s full of fireworks. 💥

🎣 Group Chat Podcast – Community Spotlight: Blue Boot Rodeo 🎶

🎣 Group Chat Podcast – Community Spotlight: Blue Boot Rodeo 🎶

In this special Community Spotlight episode, we sit down with Corey Hebert to talk about one of south Louisiana’s most anticipated summer events—the Blue Boot Fishing Rodeo. From humble beginnings, the Blue Boot Rodeo has grown into a three-day celebration of family, fishing, and community spirit.

Corey gives us the inside scoop on what’s planned for this year’s rodeo—from the fishing tournament with categories for every angler, to live music, kids’ activities, and even unique events like Bingo & Mimosas and the popular Cornhole Tournament. With weigh-ins at Moran’s Marina and a weekend full of festivities, there’s something for all ages—whether you’re competing for a spot on the leaderboard or just there for the good food and great music.

We also talk with Group Chat’s own Damien and Tommy about their roles on the Reel American Fishing Team and how they’re preparing to (hopefully) not finish last this year.

Tommy and Corey talk about the —Better Call Badeaux— bar spondsarship and why you need to have a BCB koozie. At the end you can hear a great story about Tommy meeting up with Tommy White (LSU baseball legend) at last years event,

This episode highlights the heart of what makes events like the Blue Boot Rodeo so special: community coming together for a great cause.

🎙️ Group Chat Podcast: Not Mott's Mailbag (EP:10) | "Streaming Wars, Seawalls & SmackTalk"

It’s a sports dead period, so naturally we’re diving headfirst into chaos. This week’s Not Mott’s Mailbag is powered by our friends at Lafourche Concert and Events Club – go follow them because they actually do productive things, unlike us.

We kick things off with a pressing question: what are we watching right now? From vintage WWE drama to the trial of Karen Read, Brooklyn Nine-Nine to F1: Drive to Survive, and even a dude named Dylan eating weird food from diners in Mississippi – our TV habits are as unhinged as our group chat.

Then it’s onto the real debates:

• Should LSU expand Alex Box Stadium? (Spoiler: Depends if UNO is on the schedule)

• Crocs vs Hey Dudes – what footwear reigns supreme?

• Saints or Pelicans – who’s more likely to stumble into the playoffs?

• Which one of us would survive longest on the Golden Meadow Seawall?

• And the impossible choice: tackling Derrick Henry vs shooting under par in a golf scramble.

Plus:

• The best boxing knockouts of all time – from Tyson to a dude getting folded in Cut Off.

• Which pro athletes would thrive in wrestling and which wrestlers could actually play sports.

• A crash course in card collecting, downtown inserts, and why Tommy wants a Baker Mayfield card more than air.

• And yes…we close the show with a highly educational game of F**, Marry, Kill: SEC Fan Edition*.

Also featuring: umpire flops, Diet Coke red buttons, and tales of bitty ball coaching trauma.

🎙️ Group Chat Podcast (EP:12) | "Cage Fights, Court Dates, and Doomed Dumars" | NBA Draft Live Reaction, Bryce Boudreaux, Jake Paul and Rank Dat

Welcome to another unfiltered, unpredictable, and borderline offensive ride with the Group Chat boys—Casey Gisclair, Damien St. Pierre, Nick Hebert, and Tommy Badeaux (via River Ridge satellite). On this episode, we’re doing it all... literally.

We kick things off with some rapid-fire rants on the NBA Draft, including a suspicious number of white guys with K’s in their names, Ron Harper catching Z’s on national TV, and our analysis of who has the hottest mom in the lottery. Spoiler alert: it’s not Igor.

From there, it’s a trip into the cage as our guy Bryce Boudreaux joins us to recap Cage Warrior Championship 37 in Houma, Louisiana—tag team jiu-jitsu, a possibly quick stoppage, and more hometown chaos than a youth baseball tournament in August.

We also talk:

• Jake Paul vs. Chavez Jr. and whether boxing is more pro wrestling than pro boxing at this point.

• Deontay Wilder’s last stand in Wichita (yes, really).

• LSU baseball’s title run, Jay Johnson’s Saban vibes, and how Baton Rouge became the MLB's farm system.

• The Pelicans draft pick... and how Jeremiah Fears became both our savior and reason to cancel League Pass.

• The ghost of TJ McConnell and the most embarrassing week in white basketball history.

Then we jump into the Rank Dat segment:

• Best Adam Sandler movie (sorry, Little Nicky).

• Most miserable hangover locations.

• Top “best of the worst” Saints QBs.

• White American non-ICE NBA legends (Stockton hive, we’re watching you).

• And finally... which patriot (real or ridiculous) would most likely wave a flag during an ICE protest.

A little boxing, a lot of bullshit, and some extremely off-color jokes. Just the way you like it. Tap in, turn up, and hit that hooo! like you're Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
