Conspiracy Theories Anyone?

On this episode, Cadillac and Donna talk about Sara Evans and her new podcast discussing her marriage troubles for the first time.

Just do it

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! Your favorite song is on. Drop your drink and hit the dancefloor. You know when someone thinks they recognize you, but there is no way they could, would or should? It’s annoying. And you have better things to do then help them figure that out! Well, Donna certainly did while working her store in Alabama last week. Related, she also had to ride in an elevator with a man who was…not happy with his wife. Just do better man, ok? Also, Donna talks about an article she read on a new recently detailing a new trend, especially with moms, that involves microdosing mushrooms. It’s a brave new world, folks. Lastly, a fun segment detailing “Drop Your Drink Songs”. You know what we are talking about: the songs you hear when out at a bar or club that as SOON as you hear the first few notes drive you to immediately find your way to the dance floor. All that and more on today’s episode! Obviously, we want to know what your “drop your drink song” is. Let us know! Text or call 770-464-6024.

Eating like a hostage

2/29/2024
This is a dynamic episode of Cadillac Jack: My Second Act. That means it'll be different depending on who is listing to the show. Just kidding of course, but it is something a few national businesses are trying out. Caddy and Donna Jack touch on the topic over a biggie bag in the first segment of the show. From there Caddy walks all over Donna (or so says one listener) as usual into the next part of the episode. They do also touch on the tragedy that occurred in Athens by the campus of University of Georgia. It's a short story that ends with important message. Let us know what you think. 7704646024.

Angry crotch

2/27/2024
Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act Podcast! Pro tip: don’t get in cars with strangers. As you all know by now, Donna has been crushing it on the rowing machine. She may have gone a little overboard recently though, and she’s got a story that Caddy is hearing for the first time. It’s a doozy, so buckle up. Also, Caddy has a throwback to the Hooters 500. Caddy grew up in Hickory, NC, considered by many to be the birthplace of racing. He talks NASCAR, Atlanta Motor Speedway and the history of country music radio shows and their partnership with and promotion of racing. Lastly, Donna introduces a segment about Jelly Roll, his 15-year-old daughter and his wife Bunny’s podcast that is both devastating and powerful. We love out pod peeps! Drop us a line, especially if we haven’t heard from you in a while. Text or call 770-464-6024.

Dog and pony show

2/22/2024
Here we go again on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. How seriously do you take student athletics? For some parents, it's a lot. For Donna and Caddy, it's a different story. We kick off the episode with a reminder that civility and support should come first. We jump over Donna's notes for Cadillac Jack on how we can improve. Why? Because we only have an hour here with you today. So the convo moves on to some country music headlines. There's a new name on the top of the charts and everyone should bow down. (That's a hint.) And program directors just aren't the same as they used to be. Is that a good thing? Let us know. 7704646024.

Hookup Culture

2/20/2024
Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! On today’s show, Luke Combs does an oopsie and Caddy discovers Donna’s canned vegetables. But first, Donna and Caddy describe a recent date night to one of their favorites – Heavenly Foot Massage. It used to be a little bit sketch, but they’ve really turned it into a swanky place. A late night steak and a foot rub down. Anything better? Also, Caddy discovers something in the pantry that Donna swears she’d never buy. Find out what and how she tries to explain it away. Also, Donna talks about the phenomenon that is hookup culture. And, it’s not just running rampant with the young folk. It’s prevalent with the old folk, too. What is wrong with people? Go enjoy a nice dinner and a movie and touch grass. We’ve also got some Beyonce and Luke Combs for you. All that and much, much more on today’s jam packed episode! Thanks for stopping by.

The Swifty Effect

2/13/2024
Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! Let’s recap the Usher halftime show – I mean the Super Bowl. First though, we have some updates on our dear Roscoe. He is recouping nicely from his $5,200 surgery (!). However, he is a sneaky little devil and we need to keep an eye on him…as you loyal listeners already know. Drumroll please…the numbers are in for the Super Bowl and we now know that it was the most watched program in the history of television! Not in the history of sports – all of television. We in the biz like to call this the Swifty effect. We touch on the top commercials and you know Donna has some things to say about that steamy halftime show. Lastly, it is becoming clear that the younger generation is losing faith in the institution of marriage. Why is that, and is it a big deal? All that and more on today’s jam packed episode. What was your favorite Super Bowl commercial? Let us know! Text or call 770-464-6024.

Thanks, Toby.

Today we celebrate the life, times and music of Toby Keith. We cut the intro bed to make room for the dedication the man deserved. Hear stories from Cadillac and Donna Jack as they remember Big Dog Daddy. You'll be hearing most of them for the first time, too, because Caddy forgot to hit record for the original interview. Not the first time we've hired a forensic investigator. You get it. There's also a quick touch on the Grammy's and your favorite lavellas. So thanks Toby - this one's for you. 7704646024.

Taylor Swift Stands Alone

2/6/2024
Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! On today’s show Donna gets into another wrestling match with an elderly. But first, why can’t Caddy and Donna get on the same page? Movies, walks with dog, smoking cigarettes, etc. etc. Caddy has a list of the things (thing) that he is willing to do. Also, what a Grammy’s show! Wow. Luke Combs and Tracey Chapman stole the show with their duet of Fast Car, but the whole thing was fantastic. Joni Mitchell – wow. And Billy Joel has a new song?! However…you know it’s all about T-Swift and we’re here for it. Poor Darius Rucker though. February is not his month. Donna lays out the timeline for his recent arrest. It’s confusing. Lastly, Donna recaps another episode with an elderly involving pig tails, blankets and stolen universal remotes. All that and more on today’s jam packed episode! Chiefs vs. 49ers Sunday. Who you got?! Text or call 770-464-6024.

Lean in close

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! We’ve got Alan Jackson, Morgan Wallen and Taylor Swift news for you today. What more do you need? But first, Alex Murdaugh was in the news again this week when he made a motion for a new trial. Apparently, the County Clerk may have not been able to keep her mouth shut throughout the trial and one of the jurors says that she may have influenced their decision to convict. However, the judge denied his motion. Can you imagine if we had to sit through another trial?! The news sure does make Caddy miss his unpaid jury consultant days. He wouldn’t have put up with that garbage from the County Clerk. Also, Taylor Swift: is she going to make it to Vegas in time for her beau’s football game? The Super Bowl, that is. She will be in Japan for a concert the day before. Aviation experts everywhere are crunching the numbers to see if she will be able to make it back in time. There was a very strange story about three Chiefs fans who froze to death on a back porch. Caddy and Donna weigh in. Alan Jackson, Morgan Wallen and much more on today’s episode! Thanks for tuning in. Are you more or less likely to watch the Super Bowl because of the T-Swift drama? Let us know. Text or call 770-464-6024.

Stoners vs. Drinkers

1/24/2024
Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! On today’s show Donna describes how she sold the vest off a man’s back. But first, have you ever walked into a Starbucks and someone was just…drinking coffee? Most of the time, you’ll see someone on their phone, laptop or reading a book. Well, Donna spotted an older gentleman who was just sitting back and enjoying a cup of joe. Imagine that. Have we become too busy to just slow down and take a look around? Speaking of too busy: Caddy is finding it…difficult to get in some piano practices before his big show. He has plenty of good excuses though, or so says Caddy. Also, you won’t want to miss this story about how Donna literally sold the vest off a man’s back unbeknownst to him. We all know Donna is a great salesperson, but this is next level. Lastly, we have a conversation about Elle King’s recent “performance” at a Dolly Parton tribute concert where she showed up absolutely hammered and frankly, embarrassed herself. Who was at fault? When do you know you have a problem? Have you ever had to apologize to someone for your actions the night before while in the cups? Let us know and for what. Text or call 770-464-6024.

Big burly fellows

1/18/2024
It's all fun and games on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. Until it's not. Donna starts us off with a recent episode of big burly men. Caddy responds that it kind of makes him want some new luggage. You know, to leave town. Then we talk about Chase Rice and some other wintery country music artists. Donna brings up what everyone (besides Cadillac Jack) is talking about - Saltburn. No spoilers here, but you will probably want to go watch it after this episode. Just do it cautiously. We round the corner going through Caddy's recent accidents and road disputes. We have to cut it off because of the time limit. You get it. Honk the horn. 7704646024.

Caddy has come around on Jelly Roll

1/16/2024
Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast. At first, Caddy wasn’t so sure about Jelly Roll. Was he mocking country music? Was he a serious musician. Well, he’s sold now. But first, Donna wants to check in with you guys on how those New Years resolutions are going? We are three weeks into 2024 and she’s still rowing away, but how you doing? Also, has anyone seen Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani? Seriously. They used to be hand in hand all the time on social media, but Donna thinks that something is up. Are the on the rocks? Speaking of on the rocks…Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan had to make an emergency landing when the plane they were flying in started to have instrument trouble. All turned out OK, but good grief what a scary episode. THUGS segment: You know Donna is here for it. Janet should avoid boosting cars in the future. And can she please just pull over and give herself up like a lady? No need to take everyone on an adventure through the wood. And lastly, Caddy’s has some thoughts on Jelly Roll. At first he wasn’t so sure about him, but he has definitely come full circle. Especially after his recent testimony before congress urging the government to take the fentanyl epidemic seriously. Hat’s off to you, Jelly Roll. Have you left us a review? If not, we’d really appreciate it. Your support helps others find the podcast. Once you do text or call us and let us know so we can thank you! 770-464-6024.

Right on his tail

1/12/2024
Marriage, parenting and personal growth. You know those are some major focuses of the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. Today is no different. Donna kicks us off by talking about something, really, entirely different. She got in a fight at Zaxby's. It's a long story. Have you ever had that Kickin' sauce? You get it. We also reminisce on some My Second Act anniversaries. The big part of it would be the tornados that seem to follow us around this time of year. Interesting note about some of the regulations around "Super serving" the community as a broadcast product. The good thing for us now is that, without the obligations of terrestrial media, we don't have to talk about it anymore! You want local news, community, weather and activities? Look elsewhere because you won't find it here. (Pro tip: you never really got it from terrestrial before, but we'll all smile and wave) That's really it. How long have YOU been listening? Let us know. 7704646024.

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! It’s been a long and rough road, but we’re here, and everything is peachy. Have you noticed that food has gotten a lot more expensive at restaurants and the service isn’t as good as it once was? Donna has, and combined with the fact that she is just a little tired of going out, she is spending a lot more time at the grocery store. Can anyone out there relate? It also reminds us of kids, college, and how we all just have different life experiences and upbringing. Have you all been keeping up with this craziness that is Gypsy Rose? For those unfamiliar, this was am awful situation where a girl (Gypsy) was abused by her mother and to escape the abuse Gypsy hired a hit man who stabbed her mother to death. Just awful. Well, after serving 8 years in prison, Gypsy is now out and has her own TV show, book, etc. We talk about trauma, and how human beings cope and respond to trauma in their lives.

The year of no

1/4/2024
Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast. Don’t ever sit too close to Donna in a movie theatre. She’s not having it. But first, 2023 was the year of “yes” for Donna, as she tried new things, had lunch with old friends and in general tried to be accommodating and stay busy. Well, 2024 is the year of “no”, folks. No more Mrs. Nice Donna. And that includes people who want to sit too close to her in a movie theatre while she is trying to eat her popcorn and Junior Mints… Oprah recently revealed she is trying a new weight loss drug and Donna and Caddy get into the new phenomena and why and how people try body altering drugs and procedures. Donna makes no bones about her own experiences and shares some skin peeling moments she suffered through. And, as promised, we’ve got a new THUGS Segment. Any good reason to be out on the road at 3:30 on Christmas Eve? We don’t think so. And one of those reasons is definitely not to test drive a care. Tune in and find out how Mr. Darius found himself in some trouble. Fair or foul? Was Donna right to be annoyed with Mr. Bob’s antics in the movie theatre? Let us know. Text or call 770-464-6024.
