0:00.0 | It's the way I heard it episode number 321. This one is called The Ring of Sting with |
0:10.6 | Smoking Head Curry. |
0:12.4 | Ed Curry indeed. Yes. |
0:14.6 | Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fans of dirty jobs might have seen Ed Curry. He was featured last year |
0:20.2 | on the show. He's just a remarkable dude. And anybody who's a fan of super spicy foods |
0:27.4 | will probably know him since I think he's the king of the chilies. He has a farm in |
0:34.0 | Fort Mills, South Carolina called Pucker Butt Farm. He's in the Guinness Book of World |
0:39.4 | Records for creating the hottest pepper on the planet in the solar system, in the galaxy |
0:47.3 | in the universe for all I know. Well, that we're aware of. It's currently the Carolina |

1:29.3 | to know this guy and wanted to know him more because Chuck, you got to admit it's tough to |
1:35.4 | put Ed Curry in a box. Yes, nobody puts Ed Curry in a corner or a box. What I loved is, |
1:44.0 | you know, when he was talking about doing this show that he did on Netflix and they kept |
1:48.8 | directing him and he said, and I hate that. I hate people telling me what to do. And it made |
1:52.4 | me think of someone else, Mike. It made me think of someone else that I'm fond of. Who |
