EP 80: The Call of a Lifetime. Stone Sheep Hunt Winner Announced.

Hey everybody, here we are. Adam, Jeff, myself, and Mindy. And we just drew the Stone Sheep winner. We did. I just pulled out the magic ticket. Who is it with? The winner is Todd Gilliland from Palmdale, California. So Todd Gilliland. We're going to give him a call. Palmdale, California. Here we go. See if he changed his mind since he bought tickets, if he still wants to go. I know a sigh, an outfitter, but I don't know Todd. Here we go. All right. Let's give him a holler.

Go ahead. You hit him up.

Probably doing laps at the swimming pool. Tony, we call it family feud time.

He's looking at the number going.

Telemarker. Delete.

Ignore, ignore.

Hi, you've reached Todd Gilliland with Gilliland Masonry. I'm not available right now. Please leave your name and number. I'll call you back as soon as I can. Thanks a lot. This message is for Todd. Todd, this is Adam Bronson and the Epic Outdoors crew. I'm not sure if you ever have an interest in hunting stone sheep, but if you do, you might want to call us back pretty quick. 435-263-0777. Hope to hear from you soon.

Oh, that nailed it. That's awesome. They're all texting. I love it. Here, how about this? Todd, call me ASAP. Jason Carter, Epic Outdoors. Oh, yeah. He's got an iPhone. His phone's falling off of his hand. He's got an iPhone. It was delivered. He doesn't know what to do. He's got a brick in one hand and mud in the other.

Hopefully he didn't just fall off the scaffolding and blow out his knee and he can't go on a hump. I wonder if he's got read receipts on. How about that? That was quick. That was quick. This isn't Todd, is it? Yeah. How's it going, Jason? Good. How are you doing? Oh, man. I'm just working right now. It's pretty hot down in our country, about 104, so we're just sweating away. I was wondering if you had brick in one hand and mud in the other. Yeah, just running. We're pouring concrete today. Are you? Right on. Yeah. Well, this is Adam Bronson. You probably didn't have a chance to listen to your voicemail, did you? No, no. I just saw a Utah number and then I saw a text message and I was like, oh, crap. I better give them a call right now. Why? Why would we be that important today? Why would you think you'd need to take our call? I don't know, but you guys got me pretty nervous right now.

There's only one reason we'd be calling you today, Todd, and you're going stone sheep hunting. Are you kidding me? Holy crap. Oh, my gosh. I got to pull over. Yeah. That's against the law. You're not supposed to be texting or calling or doing any of those bad things while you're driving, Todd. There's a lot of things you're not supposed to do in California, but we don't see how you do that. Well. You got to be kidding me. No, no. We wouldn't do that to anybody. Oh, my gosh. Well, Mindy drew your name and we're giving you a holler. Oh, my gosh. This is for real. It's for real. It's for real. You're it. So, I hope you're ready. This is like. In two months. Oh, my gosh. Two months. Yeah. This is like the greatest thing that's ever happened to me besides my kids. Yeah. Oh.

Oh, my gosh. I'm shaking. You need to get that concrete poured because you're going to be up there around August 16th. So, get your work. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. I am freaking out right now. Thank you guys so much. I mean, this is insane. Find a Stairmaster and don't get off of it. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. No. I'm ready for that. Trust me. Okay. We'll be sending you an email later today with the Outfitters information with Luke Vince. We'll also, I'll just give Luke a quick call so he knows to be expecting an excited call for you. But good luck getting something else done at work today. Yeah. If you don't mind me asking, how many tickets did you buy? I bought the $200 packet. There you go. That's right. Well. Yeah. So. And we'll send you your knife here next week and you can take it on your hunt. How's that? Oh, heck yeah, man. I'm so excited. We might even throw an extra razor blade in there.

I would. Yeah. Yeah. I need one. Oh, man. If I could hug you guys, I would. Well. Hug Jeff. Good. Good. Good. Good. Oh, man. You guys just made my freaking year. Yeah. That's awesome. Decade. Probably. We appreciate the support and we're looking forward to, you know, following you on the hunt. And then, of course, we want a story when you get done. Oh, absolutely. And take some good photos and all that. So you're going to kill a sheep. There's no question about that. Oh, my gosh. This is like, this is insane. You know. Have you ever sheep hunted before, Tom? No, you know, I got max points in California for sheep. I got tons of points in lots of other states. You know, I put in every year in all kinds of states. And it's just one of those things you cross your fingers and hope. And, you know, it's just like, especially with, like, Colorado's, you know, application explosion this year.

It's just like, you know, is this ever going to happen? Yeah. You know? It just did. Yeah. You can't win if you don't play. Yeah. You do. You got to put your name in as many places as you can that give hunts away. So anyway. Oh, I'm ecstatic, man. We're happy for you. I better go work a little bit more. Oh, yeah. You need to put in an 18-hour day today, Tom. Oh, I don't think there'll be a problem with that.

It's crazy. It's my wife's 30th birthday tomorrow. So I don't know who's, you know. Oh. Tell her happy birthday. I think I'll wait the other day after. Tell her we wish her happy birthday. Yeah, for sure. Thank you guys so much. You bet. I can't even explain it. It's like setting in right now. It's so awesome. Yeah, it's awesome, buddy. Well, we appreciate you. Congrats. I appreciate it so much, and I can't wait. I just don't even know what to say. Okay. We'll send you an email later today. We'll have a contact with Luke and introduce you to, and you guys can make plans and start. He can tell you when he wants you there and get your flights booked and all that. For $200, you're going on a $40,000 shootout. I know. I know. I know. I know. It's insane. It's awesome. It's just like you don't ever think these things happen to you, but I guess they do every once in a while. There you go. Yeah.

Hey, thanks, guys. It hasn't happened to Adam or I, but we're still trying. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Okay. Okay. Have a great day, Tom. Yeah, you guys have a great week. I know I will. You too. We'll send you an email. All right. Bye. All right.
