Steve's reiteration of "Thats where your HOUSE landed?" killed me
You guys make mondays bearable
The pod always saves my Monday
I get it... Cause they like hunting bears😉
Can't agree more😂
Sometimes 😅
Steve thinking him telling people "I am NOT going to read your book recommendation" is a good way to ease any tension is hilarious!
Talk about panic when the Meateater feed didn’t have a new episode on Monday morning, but good job Phil honestly since the videos have came out on TH-cam, I just wait for this instead of Spotify
How does Steve not understand the turtle trap concept 😅
Love it. It looks like Steve hung out with the boys and had a long morning.
That bayou can fork off 😂
The porpice man.
I love the Louisiana bayou accent
@meateater crew (especially Steve), the real question is did y'all stop by T-Pops for some boudin on the way out? Great podcast; and next time y'all come down, you qualify for an "Honorary Cajun" status!
PS: Thank you for bringing up the subject of seafood prices and people who don't know to ask at a restaurant if it is real Louisiana caught seafood!
Great content. Also, it’s so funny how dudes just move the throw pillows to the middle of the sofa haha. “Get out of the way I’m sitting here”
100 percent agree on the sausage thing in the gumbo. The same thing goes with sausage on pizza. Just makes it a sausage pizza
I went small shrimping yesterday. Unsuccessfully.
I go small shrimpin every time I drink too many beers.
Big Shrimping 😂😂😂
On 4 4s
I love seafood but dont eat much due to the issues discussed here. Very little from american waters sold at Kroger or even Whole Foods. Would pay a premium to have gulf shrimp shipped direct to consumer. It is the same with lamb. Why is it from the other side of the world?
1:23:41 Row your boat!
Tell Steve panfish in Michigan went to a limit of 25
Yankee turles lol
I wonder why Ronnie is still associated with meateater but not Jean Paul
It’s the same story everywhere with commercial fishermen and it’s annoying that nobody ever gets political - because real federal and state policy has a lot to do with it. No tariff on imports will ever make US domestic seafood competitive in a cost basis with Southeast Asian imports, US commercial fishermen have to sell based on sustainability and quality. But it’s Almost like a state (hello Louisiana) that prioritizes oil and gas and industrial development doesn’t care much beyond lip service to its seafood industry, yet I bet if you check the voting record for these areas where all the fishermen live you’d see alot of votes for the political party that gave a massive tax break to the ultra wealthy, didn’t do anything to help the environmental concerns about Gulf Coast seafood, and even incentivized further development that only adds to the troubles of the fisheries (see oil spills, Gulf dead zone, thousands of abandoned oil and gas wells, marsh erosion in a scale of thousands of acres per year, etc.). So unfortunately for a lot of commercial fishermen, especially the ones in Louisiana, they’re getting exactly what they vote for. If you think I’m describing the political party you support - strip away the D and R labeling and look at the real policies proposed and how those policies will affect the thing you care about and vote based on that…or don’t, and keep rolling with the party that chanted Drill Baby Drill most recently in Milwaukee - sorry costal Louisiana they’re talking about giving up your shrimping grounds when they say that.
You're trying to equate your agenda with something you know nothing about.
Erosion is a product of constraining the river and not allowing it to flood naturally. And honestly, the oyster fisherman have been the biggest barrier to every proposed restoration and diversion project along the Southeast Coast for the last several decades. Annual storms just keep destroying land and its not allowed to naturally replenish. What used to be brackish water is almost too salty to support its historical ecosystem. As the land eroded, bayous became broken islands and the effective coastline grew exponentially as the larger land masses slowly deteoriated. Now that that process has played out, we went from large land masses, to pockmarked broken marsh, to just open water. Now the habitat is almost entirely gone. Those oil wells you mention are some of the little structure left. Much more so in the Gulf with the rigs.
The price of seafood is almost exclusively due to the market getting flooded by imports and the fact that labeling requirements are shady at best. That coupled with diesel now being $4.00 a gallon and shrimp being $0.30 a lbs is why the industry is dying. It used to be opposite with shrimp being $4.00 a lbs and diesel $0.50 a gallon.
Politically, the state has had a lot of both Democrats and Republicans in charge. It's been a combination of incompetence and corruption from both sides. The tarrifs discussed were the only government involvement I've witnessed in my lifetime to help the industry.
@@paulh32042 Dude, I'm a professional environmental engineer in Louisiana. Yeah, I know what I'm talking about. And sorry buddy, the Tariffs didn't do squat to help commercial fishermen in the US...they just made the imports' a few cents a lb more expensive.
Zzzzzzzzzzz
