Talkin' Texas | April Fool's Pranks, RIP Chickens, Bluebonnet Etiquette

This month brings a mix of Christmas talk, Texas history, and a scary recap of a visit with a very haunted spot.

In our November podcast, we discuss the stress of catching fish,  shark tracking, and being thankful.

It's October and we are kicking off spooky season with tales of cryptids, bigfoot, the Goat man of Texas, and other Texas tall tales.

September kicks off football season so we give our predictions, discuss enormous pythons crossing the road in small-town Texas, and the new fate of Shipley's Donuts.

This month we discuss the Texas floods, the Huntsville Prison Museum, and the rules for when a rattlesnake rattles.

This month we are honored to have William Beckmann join us for the Talkin' Texas podcast. William is a country music singer-songwriter and musician from Del Rio, Texas. Having gained popularity touring in the regional Texas music scene and self-releasing four extended plays, Beckmann signed with Warner Music Nashville and subsequently released his major label debut, Whiskey Lies & Alibis, on June 20, 2025. His music is a fusion of neotraditional country, with influences of red dirt, tejano, New Mexico music, and traditional pop, with critics noting his signature crooner-style baritone voice. Beckmann has toured with Parker McCollum, Randy Rogers Band, Charley Crockett, Radney Foster, Flatland Cavalry, Midland, and Hank Williams Jr.

Welcome to Summer! We cover the definition and types of snobs, places you can find human teeth, and we name all 7,000 caves in Texas. Not really, but caves are good places for hot Texas summers.

This episode focuses on highlights from the new episodes of The Daytripper premiering this month, along with the latest tales from the great state of Texas.

Keep your guard up today...jokers and pranksters are plotting and planning! Despite my best efforts, nature is metal, and all of my little chickens have been picked off by owls, snakes, and who knows what else. Also, just because you can take bluebonnet pictures, does it mean you should?
