Temple of the Hogg

Send us Fan Mail Back in the Saddle Again! Not Gene Autry's  neither. We are talking Aerosmith's 1977 hard rockin' classic jam!!! We love Gene Autry but we need something a little edgier to start a new season. Jay and Todd dive into the NFL playoffs. Not only what has been but also what is yet to come this weekend! DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed by Jay (MCA) Kelley in...

Send us Fan Mail Fresh off our first North American Tour, Temple of the Hogg Season 2 is in" Full Effect!" A huge heartfelt thanks to everyone that came to see us for our shows at The Boston Garden,  the Hartford Civic Center, Nassau Coliseum, the Philly Spectrum, the Omni, Pontiac Silverdome, Metrodome, Kingdome, Reunion Arena, The Salt Palace, and any other venue I may have forgotten....

Send us Fan Mail The boys get back to Deerfield Studios for the first time in 2 months! With that said, there are two technical issues that had to be resolved within about the first 20 mins. Like any good producer, I sliced them up with some Rock music and carried out the mission.  Jay has to scramble for some Five Fun Facts but comes through in the clutch. Several things get discussed from Metall...

Send us Fan Mail Season 1 is a wrap! It's just a temporary break. We will be back for Season 2 before Thanksgiving. As for the Finale, we go into deep discussion about  apes, monkeys, football, and all things pertinent to everyday life.  Season 2 is coming soon. Enjoy the break! We shall return! Thanks for listening! Visit our website www.templeofthehogg.com Tweet us @templeofthehogg on X Fin...

Send us Fan Mail We made a master for Episode 30. I am not clever or artistic enough to give a proper description in a singular paragraph. Just get ready. Special guest Jason Miller takes us on a wild ride around the globe… or the slab…. Or whatever it is we are gliding through the galaxy on. It’s a wild ride! Thanks for listening!

Send us Fan Mail Are we really almost to 30 episodes? Geez. Anywho, the crew once again talks some football. Another NFL epiosde but that is not all. By the end we had covered NFL, Lil Wayne, sipping on syrup, Sonny Barger, we are all over the place. We are going to get back into some non-football episodes starting next week. Get ready people! Thanks for listening! Visit our website www.templeofth...

Send us Fan Mail After a week away, Danny comes back but he is not happy. Let's face, the universe is out of whack. The Hogs lose to A&M. We could have won. We should have won. Now on to Alabama. Danny and Jay go in deep on their infatuation with Nick Saban and it got a little too creepy for me. Yes, he is a great coach. Probably the greatest. No need to wash his balls so enthusiasticly i...

Send us Fan Mail Our 2nd episode without our Enforcer, Danny.  Much like the bands Rush & The Beastie Boys, the Temple of the Hogg just isn't the same without our 3rd Heat. Yet, we trudge through Episode 27 recapping our NFL Week 2 game picks. Jay is 2 games up on Todd and Danny and is poised to run away with this thing early. Fun 5 Facts from Jay lead us off as usual. Jay is now doubting...

Send us Fan Mail Jay & Todd are flying in a missing man formation this week. That is right, no Danny this week. Never fear, he is due for another triumphant return next week. A small twist to Jay's 5 Fun Facts this episode. A lot of anxiety in Deerfield Studios as we cover the nearly disastrous Missouri State game. Bobby Petrino is still an offensive genius. Was this an omen for what is t...

Send us Fan Mail Our Silver Episode! 25 episodes in and we have not harmed each other and we are all still friends. We have made it all around the United States and across the globe! From Iceland to Kenya, the people have come to The Temple. Thank you to all Templer Hoggs and those who have just stopped by for a brief visit. Almost 1000 downloads already and more to come. Have a great weekend my f...

Send us Fan Mail Hogs are 2-0! Man, it's fun to do a podcast when the Hogs are winning. As usual, our knowledge is expanding with Jay's Five Fun Facts for the appetizer. Then we feast on the main course which just happens to be a feisty chicken. We threw in bit of The Nature Boy, Ric Flair for dessert & now we are having a hard time holding these gators! Thanks for listening! Visit o...

Send us Fan Mail Episode 22 has just published tonight, Friday Sept. 9, 2022,  & it's already time to drop Episode 23." Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in awhile, you'll miss it." Ferris belongs in the same conversation with Plato, Aristotle, & Socrates. Yet I digress. At any rate, I publish this audible jewel and my podcasting duties...

Send us Fan Mail We finally get to review some college football. Mostly the Hoggs, of course. As usual, Jay starts us off with the 5 Fun Facts of the Day. Good, informative info. Then we kick it into high gear with our in depth and well informed  Razorback analysis. I gotta get this out tonight since the South Carolina game is tomorrow. GO HOGGS!   Thanks for listening! Visit our website www.templ...

Send us Fan Mail That isn't exactly true. It is definitely about something. Several somethings in fact. We just didn't have a topic picked out when we decided to record. From that bleak beginning, what sprung forth was some very uplifting meditations and insights. For example, Danny has some cheerful thoughts on the Salt Bowl and the history of the Benton/Bryant rivalry. Jay"s inspi...

Send us Fan Mail Well this one was supposed to publish Tuesday morning but I apparently forgot to set the "Publish Later". Hence the "Untitled Episode" episode title. It should be called "DK Requests Greatest Rock Songs & Albums". I almost changed it but self-control got the better of me. I also set the rule that for Greatest Rock Songs and Albums, no Metallica ta...

Send us Fan Mail Football season is here. We couldn't wait 2 more days for games to start so we decided to discuss football movies. The Good, The Bad, The Dumb, The Unrealistic, all of them (not all but alot). There are some strong emotions that emerge this episode. If you like rants, angry rants, epic rants, stay tuned and turn your volume nob all the way to the right.  Thanks for listening!...

Send us Fan Mail This episode may be my favourite to date. We decide to forgo a topic and just talk about what ever come up. 2 days after The Black Crowes concert & we figured that would be what popped up and it was. Sinister things emerge as the show goes on. Allegations of cat petting are levelled at Jay. Jay vehemently denies the charge. "That is aggress and a damn lie!", Jay resp...

Send us Fan Mail The Temple spoke and we listened. Since we are a Podcast for the People, this was a request all the way from Georgia. Jay starts us off with some more fun facts. Then we roll on into our favourite TV Theme Songs. I miss when tv show theme songs were a thing. 45 mins can let you cover a lot of theme songs. If you remember some that we left out, please let us know.   Thanks for list...

Send us Fan Mail YOUR ASS BETTER CALL SOMEBODY!!!! The Temple welcomes our very first guest, the man that needs no introduction (but I am gonna give him one anyway), Mr. Ray Cross.  Because Danny and Todd are  purely reactionary when it comes to all things football and Jay's forte is  the NFL, we brought Ray in to give us the 411 on our beloved Razorbacks. One thing is for sure, win or lose,...

Send us Fan Mail More movie soundtracks to follow up from Part One a week or so back. Y'all know how we love to sing along. Well, we do't do a lot of that this episode.  Thanks for listening!

Send us Fan Mail We are 3.5 minutes into the episode before Danny and Jay realize it had begun. Everybody enjoys a little eavesdropping. Jay goes with some classic Chuck Norris jokes to break the tension from epiosode 13 and ease us into episode 14. Todd declares his Allegiance to Chicago and will henceforth proudly proclaim "Da Bears" in a hybrid Shy Town/southern accent. Probably sound...

Send us Fan Mail We start off this chat with a tribute to the great Bill Russell, a true humanitarian and American Icon. Jay schools Danny & Todd on interesting football factoids and the latest in the Deshaun Watson saga. The sky gets dark and the storms roll in my friends. What else can you expect from episode 13?  But hey, if you don't have the rain, all you get is a desert. Another pea...

Send us Fan Mail Remember where you were the first time you heard "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba? Of course you don't, nobody does. Dumb song title + nonsensical band name= 90's one hit wonder. Worry not, we at the Temple of the Hogg only added a few seconds to most of these annoyingly successful 90's One Hit wonders' 15 minutes of long gone fame. We did, however, give...

Send us Fan Mail Alone and away from Deerfield Studios, I wanted to give a quick shoutout to say thanks to everybody that has been listening. Stuck at home working today so I figured it was the perfect time to let everybody know how much the Temple of the Hogg loves and appreciates YOU! Thanks for listening!

Send us Fan Mail Episode 11 finds the Hogg Templars contemplating the Mysteries of the Church of Rome and movie soundtracks, mostly movie soundtracks. Before we get started with the soundtracks, Jay gives Danny and Todd a pop quiz on fair food. Todd has a few shoutouts to give but not nearly all that are due. More to follow.  Of course we overlooked a few, that is kind of our thing. So if you feel...
