Cadillac Jack - My Second Act

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! On today's show the Jacks are still off for Labor Day Week. Aren't you? Caddy finds a little time away from his not laboring to check in with you and leave you with a golden nugget from a prior episode we get to relive together. On Thursday's episode we will talk about the passing of legendary entertainer and entrepreneur Jimmy Buffett. Be sure...

Can you hear me? We're on the run here today on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. To kick off our new tradition, Donna starts by pointing out the irony in Caddy's life. Then she 'pivots' to an article about Atlanta magazine that has been blowing up in the media world. It's a good conversation about different types of journalism and what it means if people are recording your conversations....

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack - My Second Act podcast! On the show today, Donna finally reveals what happened to her red slider turtles. Keep your red slider turtles out of your kitchens, folks! The CDC put out a warning about a possible salmonella outbreak and warned that kissing certain animals…on the mouth…is probably a bad idea. Granted, you shouldn't need a CDC warning to know that, but we dig...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! Caddy and Donna talk about their increasingly empty house and dealing with the (nearly) empty nest blues. If you have ever had a kid go off to college you know the hole they leave in your house and the quiet that follows it. You're half expecting them to walk through the front door after school…but they don't. Donna and Caddy talk about dealing...

Welcome back to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! It's time for Donna to fess up about her addiction to PB&J Snack Duos. So, Donna has had a mild obsession with these tasty morsels from Trader Joe's called PB&J Snack Duos. She thought she may have put them in her past, but she was wrong. Her birthday was last week and someone dropped off an entire crate of them for her. The struggle is re...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast. Sorry we're late, but when Queen Bee is in town…you pay your respects. Donna's air conditioning is out. Again. This time, she has found a culprit, but it has been a long, hot summer and it makes Donna a little bit grouchy. School is back and session and the Jacks are down to one child in the house. It's been emotional. Caddy and Donna talk abou...

Great day to be alive here on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. We are back and better than ever after a tumultuous week of shows.

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! Garth Brooks finally weighs in on the Jason Aldean controversy and Taylor Swift makes dreams come true.

Dog Days of Summer here on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast.   Can you feel the love in the studio today? You should, because Cadillac and donna Jack are finally back together. The show kicks off with the reason for reunification.   From there we fulfill our obligation as a semi music podcast with some viral news about Cardi B. We talk about what she and Cody Johnson (?) have in common.  ...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! Cady and Donna are in studio together, so you know it's going to be a good show. There have been a lot of bad storms in the area and there is a tree down at the Caddy household creating some…technical issues. Primarily Donna cannot use the Amazon machine, but that's just fine with Caddy. Did you all see the news about Cardi B? She was performin...

We're still alive here on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. Alive and flush with cash for online shopping. Caddy just needs to make sure they get thee address right. In the interest of getting moved in, Donna Jack has some advice for Caddy and the cats. Just try and catch them mid stream. We also make a quick turn to that time we all had to go do child play therapy in North Druid Hills, wh...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act Podcast! On today's show, Donna is going mountain climbing, and Caddy is…not. So, Donna opens the show talking about her new goal of climbing mountains. Literally. She is going to find a nice comfortable pair of hiking boots, hit a rave, and then climb the equivalent of the height of Mount Everest. Caddy wishes her the best of luck. Donna went and saw t...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast. On today's episode, Caddy lists the things he would rather have done than be on a particular flight full of Swifties. But first, Donna went to see her dad Charlie's final resting place on Fripp Island. It was something she was glad to do with daughter Charlotte, but the real story here is what she did on the way back. She went by the Murdoch es...

Put out your pole and get ready for episode 93,000 of Cadillac Jack: My Second Act. It's a late night, forgetful show here in the studio, and we say that lovingly. The reason? Donna is out of air conditioning. Houston we have a problem. We kick things off with a story about a man losing his hair piece. Enough said. Then we step into Joe Jonas and a bit of other brown note music news. Tune in and t...

We're back in the kitchen here on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast and let me tell you, we brought the heat. (No really, Donna's mic is a little hot) In all seriousness it's a great episode of the Act as Caddy and Donna Jack dive into all your favorite topics. First up we have birthdays and Amazon purchases. Caddy claims he has never used the Mom and Pop store while Donna wants to know who...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast. Don't listen to this on speaker phone. But do listen to it. As Donna explains, one of her pet peeves is when people talk on speaker phone out in public as if no one in the world is around. Like, hello?! I'm standing here! Caddy agrees. It's rude people. At long last, it's time for the big reveal. Caddy and Donna reveal who they would pick to be...

It's a great afternoon here on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. We're still recovering from the Fourth of July and have a few firey things to say. Strap in and tune out. I think. It's been a weird week for sure. Some people had the whole week off, some people worked every hour. We here on the show were on the clock the whole time. Donna hasn't stopped moving since last Thursday and has th...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast and happy 246 th  birthday America. Caddy opens the show by readying a beautiful essay about the holiday and what it means to so many people across this great country of ours. Take a minute to enjoy family and the simple things in life, like ice in your lemonade. We've got it good here in the good old U. S. of A and don't every forget it! Brando...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! We have got Taylor Swift updates for all you Swifties out there. But first, Donna opens the show by talking about people, much like Caddy, who have rediscovered their calling and often times, their second act. Inspired by a podcast she was turned onto, Donna talks about people who get to age 50 or so and realize how much more they have to offer...

It's CNA week and we're hugging nurses. In a very fun way. Seriously though we want to start off the show by thanking all our nurses for everything they do.  Caddy and Donna Jack don't tear up too much, though, before spinning the old track. And by that we mean talking sweaty pits and chafing.  We also touch on the Titanic submersible and Tug's tickle pickle. Well, we wish on that last one. Don't...

Donna doesn't have time for that. Shopping, that is. So she's been getting a lot of Amazon packages. Some of them went to her neighbor and it gave Caddy the opportunity to find out what her name is. Happy belated Father's Day! We get into Caddy's big Father's Day dinner and…Donna's driving habits. We may have avoided a disaster and Charlotte is scarred for life. Juneteenth. Caddy has jokes. Is you...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! On today's show, we remeneiss about birthdays of old as Caddy hits the big 5-0. But first, everyone is in Italy! It seems like everyone and their brother has been to Italy this year. It's the new 30A. Maybe it's the post-pandemic mentality, but everyone seems to be traveling internationally, and specifically the Italian peninsula. Next up, we r...

It's a great day to be alive here on the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. To celebrate that fact, Donna and Caddy raise the roof. Or at least break the ceiling. Set the glass floor? Something like that. We were all seperated last week for Caddy's birthday, so the first part of the show is us getting back up to speed. The problem is at this point in life remembering the days can get kind of… h...

Welcome to the Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast! Larry the Cable Guy joins to play Can't Beat Caddy. But first, Donna is feeling a little sore. She says…it may have something to do with not taking home that little pink slip. You know, the one that little kids take home that tells their parents that they'd tested positive for scoliosis. Well, Donna threw hers away. When you get a call from Ric...

This show originally had seven minutes of dead air. We made an executive decision to cut that space, in light of a lively drink. Lord knows we need it. Donna and Cadillac Jack dig up some old tough memories as they get ready to celebrate Wil's birthday. The Jacks would - and have - done anything for the guy and fought to make it happen. If you've been following along, you know that means Caddy's B...
