Cadillac Jack - My Second Act

Latest Episodes:

Five seconds of frisky Fall Sep 17, 2020

Show notes

McDonalds has gone mining. Their partnership with Travis Scott has taken a turn that, according to Caddy, is dastardly brilliant. It all started a few months ago when the rapper blew off social distancing, pulled up in a Lamborghini and looked for a burger. Donna explains why the event's origins might be a little different and thinks it's the kind of marketing the money can't buy.

The topic blends perfectly into the best segment of My Second Act: Donna's Appy. Hear about a new way to care and learn about your little green friends.

Selfcare has become so much more important recently but it's also been a lot more… awkward. Some things that were once relaxing, like "Caddy Time," can feel labored. Still, there are moments that can be savored.

Atlanta Braves' Freddy (?) Freeman jumped on a jet to fly home and see his son's first T-Ball practice. The middle segment turns sentimental as Caddy and Donna reflect on the relationship between parents and children.

Lastly Carole Baskin and Chris Evans make their way back to the show for an Entertainment News segment. The bottom line is: how low would you go, and how long would you linger there?

Come back Saturday morning for the ACM recap. Then text Caddy about it. Just remember, it's not where you start, it's where you end.

All the love languages, like d******** and funeral processions. Sep 15, 2020

Show notes

The Jacks are feeling the love. That's why Donna brought five love languages to the table and forgot all the white wine. They're all covered on the first segment of the show right before Caddy "Get's Down On It."

There's an upcoming collaboration between Travis Scott and McDonalds. It's actually a pretty big deal, as the last person to score a similar deal was Michael Jordan. All you have to do to participate is use a certain phrase in the Mickey D's drive-thru. Caddy tried it for himself, sharing both his experience and wait time.

The ACM Awards are coming up. There will be a bonus show covering the results, but first Donna and Caddy run through a couple previews. Luke Combs, Taylor Swift and Eric Church are all ones to watch. The debates are coming up, too, and some of the plans bode well for the podcast industry.

The 2020 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is cancelled. Tik Tok has been saved. Chris Evans' pecker has seen the light of day. Donna and Caddy touch all three in today's Entertainment News.

Rolling out of the segment, the show covers a traditionally Southern method of paying respects before closing with a few minutes of Donna's least favorite game.

BONUS: Christy and Richard Roth from Hemp Farmacy Sep 12, 2020

Show notes

As a Saturday treat, we're releasing a special episode of Cadillac Jack: My Second Act. Christy and Richard Roth stopped in to the studio to talk with Caddy and Donna about Hemp Farmacy. Tune in to hear about CBD from the experts instead of listening to the Jacks talk about Donna's plantar fasciitis.

The sing-songy Second Act Sep 10, 2020

Show notes

The first segment touches on the upcoming Halloween holiday. Wait, what? In all seriousness, Donna says that couple costumes have always been a part of the Jack's relationship. They run through a couple of past favorites and pitch a few ideas for this year.

Then Donna gives an update on her 141 campaign. She is charging everyone to do one new, productive thing for one month. Donna has heard from a lot of folks about their progress and wants to encourage others to take it on.

One of the subjects Donna wants to pick up the 141 challenge is on the show today. That person is Cadillac Jack. Hear where he is on his own growth journey.

Then Donna and Caddy hear a clip from Caddy Wagon that speaks to the question: Can you make a left on red? After Officer Ritchey gives his answer, Donna moves into the best segment of the month: Appy.

The Appy is a great way to get discounts on medicine and other prescriptions. If you or someone in your family regularly goes to a pharmacy, make sure to listen in.

Let's get reacquainted and play a 20 second pop culture trivia showdown. Sep 08, 2020

Show notes

It's another great show on the My Second Act semi-music podcast. This one has games, background and three advertisements.

First of all, what's your checkout policy? During COVID, some folks are encouraging others to check yourselves out. That's the advice that Donna wants to listen to. Caddy has some opposing views about who should be checking out who right now.

It's game time in the Cadillac Jack nation. Before they play a live lightning round, Caddy and Donna introduce themselves to new listeners, providing some color for the ride they're about to take. Familiarize yourself with backstories and the whole field of recurring characters, from Roscoe to Richard. Then, it's time to play.

Susan Clark chimes in to the show today to take on Caddy in a 20 second pop culture trivia game called You Can't Beat Jack. It's a completely original and never before done broadca- er, podcast segment where quick-fire answers are the way to win. Tune in, shout out and then text Caddy about it. 7704646024.

Cadillac Jack bounced a check to the Country Music Association Sep 03, 2020

Show notes

Donna is going back to school. Caddy wants to take up some new instruments. It's a normal Thursday in 2020.

The first segment of the show covers some of the recent Country Music Awards nominations. To start, Garth Brooks got his wish. Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton and Jason Aldean. Here's a name you weren't expecting: Justin Bieber. Then a name you were expecting but didn't see? Kelsea Ballerinio. Caddy explains why and answers the popular question of who exactly can vote in the CMAs.

The second segment of the show covers some music news for the State of Georgia and specifically, the City of Atlanta. It's estimated that 20,000 music professionals live and work in the state. Based on the show's semi-music designation from Apple, it's unclear where Caddy and Donna fit in there.

On the following segment, Caddy and Donna talk about the tragic passing of Chadwick Boseman. He was an incredible actor whose diagnosis was kept under wraps from almost everyone. It's a powerful example that those around you can be dealing with immense struggles.

Caddy and Donna turn around the show with a quick game of Which Came First? It's a trivia game that will be a warm up to thie upcoming round of You Don't Know Jack. Here are some early vision The Empire State Building or Clint Eastwood? King King or Ping Pong?

The newest season of Dancing With The Husband Killers is coming soon. The featured entrant? That's right. It's Carole Baskin. After that she is headed to Animal Crossing to put up campaign signs. Caddy explains the nuances of the situation and why it has to do with the lack of Joe Biden boat parades.

Donna and Cadillac Jack almost make it to the fifth segment without earning the show its "Explicit" tag. This one comes from the discussion of OnlyFans. Donna thinks that it promotes the concept of directly paying creators for their content. She says it will move away from "the naughty bits." Caddy says he isn't interested in any of that.

Get your flushot at Publix. Pick up your $10 gift card. Then text Caddy about it. 7704646024.

Clarence Clemons, will you sign my boarding pass? Sep 01, 2020

Show notes

Today's episode of Cadillac Jack: My Second Act is a quick hit.

First off, Susan Clark intro's the show. Not only does Susan Clark does she pipe us in, but comes with fighting' words. Susan is the only person who has (allegedly) Beat Caddy twice. We can't remember the old name, but we'll have a rematch of You Don't Know Jack to settle the score.

Donna and Caddy cover their feelings about upcoming holidays like Labor Day and Halloween.

After that, Donna tells Caddy about the time she was encouraged to steal Clarence Clemons' hip replacement card. Spoiler Alert: she returned it to him.

The show fulfills the music portion of its Semi-Music Podcast classification by covering some upcoming songs. The first ones are upcoming classic Christmas songs covered by a few Country artists. Donna and Caddy are not fans. There's a hunch that Tug Cowart isn't either.

Then Donna talks about a new project from Chris Stapleton that features some folks from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

Caddy went on a Daddy / Daughter field trip this week. It was a little unconventional- the two went to the Gwinnett County Medical Examiner's Office and Morgue. He shares the experience on the middle segment of today's show.

Statesboro. Bullet County. It's a new target for the White House. Caddy and Donna tackle the situation on the third major segment. Hear their thoughts on the school, the parents and the nation. It leads right into a discussion on some changes in national testing for schools and prep courses in the college application process.

A finger-lickin' good beaver and two bounced checks. Aug 27, 2020

Show notes

Listen closely: there are some absolute gems in this episode of Cadillac Jack: My Second Act.

Quick PSA from Donna to start of today's show. It really seems like this year has been a loop, so don't miss those deadlines.

Then Caddy and Donna recap the newest episode of Hustle, an interview with Ethan Daniels, before previewing a s[ecial edition of My Second Act. Watch for a bonus show covering the Academy of Country Music Awards in just a few weeks.

Caddy has seen a few beavers over the years and is surprised that they do not all look alike. Donna explains why. Caddy thinks. It sounds like a new game… All it took was a trash bag, a pair of cooking tongs and two and half minutes for Caddy to get rid of his opossum. Donna and the Ring got the whole thing on tape.

Speaking of which, Donna wants to know what's going on with Caddy's tools. As Caddy recently said himself, "Tug you've known me for 20 years. Do you think I own a shovel?" Listen to minute 16 to hear why a bike rider had to stop and remove their helmet when behind Caddy's truck.

What are the 10 things around the house every one should know how to do? Donna brought a list. So did Caddy. How do you stack up?

Donna's Appy/Appie of the Week makes a big splash. Here's a hint - it is not about your local recreation pool availability. Caddy is a BIG fan and gets upset that he didn't know about it in March. Don't worry Caddy- you'll be swimming in no time.

There's a new segment at the end of the show where Caddy goes through a couple Quick Hits. From PSLs and KFC to Sweet Treats and TLC. Plus, another bounced check.

Show notes

To start the podcast, Donna explains her new 1-for-1 campaign. It's a response to how much noise there is going on right now (which is a lot). We're very excited about the project and hope it brings everyone some positive growth.

As it has become tradition, an early segment of the show is covering what's in the music pipeline. Cadillac Jack and Donna cover a project from Brothers Osborne and how they rank in Outlaw Country. Then Dynamite lands on the Hype Song Playlist, as BTS launches their first entirely-english song.

Continuing their Semi-Music podcast theme, Caddy and Donna go over the New Artist winners from the Academy of Country Music.

Caddy has some news about Netflix that comes with a confession. The intro brings a new segment to the show called "Maria or not?" Wait, no, it's "Hear and Tell."

After the game, Caddy and Donna move on to some of the unexpected impacts of these new masks. From social implications at school to environmental concerns that sound awfully familiar.

Before the show ends, Donna talks about the changes she wants to make in the bedroom. Caddy likes the idea so much, he said he'd sleep in it.

Billy Oliver intro'd the show. He was Donna's across-the-street neighbor growing up. She has a lot of fond memories of the neighborhood crew playing softball, baseball and going to the Oliver's house to watch Evel Knievel. Nowadays Billy is married and has a son who is training to be an advanced EMT. Billy just got his 25-year company pin, though we hope his 26th year is better than Caddy's! He is so positive and encouraging and we are so glad for his support.

"Everyone needs a Weiner on their birthday." Aug 20, 2020

Show notes

There is a lot to cover on today's Happy Birthday Donna podcast.

If we have any listeners who are a part of the Secret Service, please call in. Donna wants to run her codename by you.

The show kicks off with coverage of new country music that is in the pipeline. Tim McGraw has a very special "first" for album release parties. We get an update on Keith Urban's new project, which will feature Pink and Breland. (Seriously, don't touch his truck.)

Donna and Caddy reflect on past celebrations as well as some ideal ones. Asking for a friend- has anyone heard from David Hester?

Caddy went out and got cards. Because he has been listening to the podcast and paying attention, each gift has an animal theme. Donna has been flooded by videos, stories and calls from listeners sharing their own reactions to the last show.

On a related note Joe Exotic has been trending on Twitter. Caddy explains why and that it has to do with Susan B. Anthony.

The middle segment today covers an article titled "Man punches great white shark to save wife: 'You just react'"

Donna wants to know if Caddy would do the same. Caddy thinks he would look like a seal, so he'd already be in hot water. But to answer the question, "I would quickly swim to shore."

Joe Biden is officially the Democratic nominee. The Republican National Committee will be next week. Caddy and Donna cover both, including Bernie's effort to livestream.

The show rounds up with a flood of pod peeps, a bit about Caddy's bread factory experiences and some clarification from Donna about how to plan children. Or, how to try and plan children.

Silver Fox had the show's intro. Ray is the patriarch of Appen Media. He landed in Atlanta after a stint in Chile (yes, that Chile) working the shipping industry and then years at the Miami Herald, where he met Christina. He's also a bit of a renaissance man who recently thru-hiked the AT and writes a regular column.

Don't forget to subscribe to Caddy Wagon with Ritchey and Raider if you haven't already. When you're finished, text Caddy about it. 7704646024.
