I have simply just been better at picking NFL games than Ryan and after Thanksgiving holiday pandemonium made us miss a week we have two weeks of picks to go through. One of us has to eat a whole pack of Skittles and make picks while navigating all of that. It is probably dumb and disgusting but hey we will take it! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedudenetwork/support

When I started my online journey it was on TikTok and when I decided The Dude Network was the path I was going to go I wanted to network in the bourbon community. I met some amazing people on there but one has become a true friend and that is Ken Bourbon Birmingham, a good dude with an awesome personality. He was an obvious first option to do some talk about bourbon. We talk about the differences between bourbon and whiskey and what makes bourbon, bourbon. Basically we talk about stuff that you are too embarrassed to ask your buddies about because they may pick on you. We def drink some bourbon and have some good laughs and we even pull out the real Ken Bournon Birmingham out for a celebrity guest appearance!! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedudenetwork/support

Rio Grande is near and dear to my heart with the Bevo Francis story, one of the greatest untold stories there ever was. So when Coach Ryan Arrowood said he would come on board I was jacked and ready to nerd out. I did actually ask Coach Arrowood about his current team and the start they have had to their season. I even bring a prop on to the scene for this one and if you want to see it please check it out on the YouTube Channel The Dude Network! Coach Arrowood had no clue what in the hell I was going to do but I think he wasn't disappointed with the results.

We caught up with Tigh Compton head coach at Pikeville University and it was before season. Now as the season starts and at the time of posting this they have gotten off to a blistering 5-0 start. Pikeville has won a national title while Tigh Compton was on the staff and he tells us the story of how that historic year went and what it was like being part of a national championship. He talks about his journey from the Virginia coalfields to Pikeville and what has made Pikeville such a special home for him and his family! Of course we talk a lot of basketball and have some good laughs along the way. I bet if I ask nicely I can get him back on and if I do what should I ask? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedudenetwork/support

If you don't know Bob Williams you are about to find out why he his beloved amongst the coaching ranks and why his ex players still call him their coach. Recently off a lengthy stint at WVU Tech in Montgomery, WV he made his way over to Fork Union Military Academy in Virginia. This interview was taken place before the season started so coach Williams wasn't even sure what his team was going to look like. Typical coaching downplay as they have gotten off to a hot 7-1 start at the time of writing this recently knocking off one of the top ranked programs in the country the Brewster Academy.

Felix Wright is a household name for Browns fans during their runs in the 80's. In 1989 he led the NFL with 9 interceptions while on the Cleveland Browns. What is really cool about Felix is his story of how we ended up in the NFL it certainly wasn't handed anything! With a stop along the way for the Hamilton Tigercats and an appearance in the Grey Cup we talk about it all. Also we talk about the current state of the Cleveland Browns and life without OBJ. Is Baker the guy? Can the Browns figure it out? All questions we ask Felix! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedudenetwork/support

Cory has become his own brand representing confidence and entertainment in the last year and just embracing who you are as a person. With close to 400k followers on TikTok alone he obviously has a lot of electricity and he brought it to the show. With the slogan Talk To Me it has barnstormed local communities in the Mississippi area as well as social media platforms. We talk his journey but most importantly we talk football because that is all what people really care about. Rumor has it he might come back for more torture with me, I don't know why but we won't complain here on The Dude Network. If he does what should we ask him next? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedudenetwork/support

Ryan beats me by a mere technicality so I have to shotgun a delicious CoCo Rum the results will shock you! Ryan came into last week down 6 games so how many did he make up? There are some big games this weekend such as the Kansas City Chiefs hosting the Dallas Cowboys just to get started. We have had a trend of agreeing more than we would care to admit to but that isn't the case on this weeks schedule of games. It may be a completely different score going into week 12. If you like the show please help us out and get the word out there! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedudenetwork/support

One of my favorite untold stories is the Battle of Blair Mountain that took place in 1921 that helped get the ball moving to unionize the coal miners in the coalfields in Southern West Viriginia. Chuck Keeney is so educated on this subject he wrote a book about how it has been surpressed from people learning about it. This conversation is absolutely awesome and I learned a lot and hopefully you do to! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedudenetwork/support
