In a Nutshell

Terry Bradshaw joined Joe Rogan to discuss his bourbon brand, recent fly fishing trip where he caught 110 trout, and his skepticism toward stem cell treatments despite suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and chronic pain from his NFL career. The conversation covered 1970s football's culture of playing through injuries with unknown injections, the steroid era's physical consequences, and how modern players are dramatically larger than those from Bradshaw's era. They also explored topics including dog ownership, corporate speaking, friendship dynamics, and Bradshaw's habit of over-explaining his medical conditions to strangers.

Terry Bradshaw describes a recent fishing trip where he caught rainbow trout using a fly rod with a bobber setup. The bobber acts as a large moth or indicator that holds up a tiny fly that's difficult to see. This method differs from traditional fly fishing because it involves being in a boat on moving water, targeting pools where fish wait near jetties.

Bradshaw caught approximately 110 trout over several hours during the trip. When Joe Rogan expressed surprise at the numbers, Bradshaw was asked not to reveal the location to prevent overcrowding.

Bradshaw carries a small figurine of baby Jesus with him. During one fishing trip when they weren't catching anything, he placed the figurine on an igloo cooler facing him. Immediately after, they caught six giant rainbow trout in a row ranging from 15 to 20 inches. His son-in-law requested the figurine be turned toward him, resulting in another six fish. The guide became unsettled by the coincidence. Before leaving, Bradshaw gave the figurine to the guide, who planned to use it daily.

Joe Rogan suggested the figurine should be reserved for special trips rather than used regularly.

Bradshaw mentions that Jeff Dye died to him that day. Rogan reveals he knows Jeff from working together on the show "Better Late Than Never" for two years, describing him as a solid, good dude and a man's man.

Bradshaw brought several bottles of his whiskey line to the podcast. The collection includes:
