katie: hi eveveryone. welcome. thank you so much for coming. have a seat. great to see you all. all you city folk and you country folk need to grab a jar jumbalaya and we are headed to louisiana to check out "duck dynasty" and "swamp people," they are the kings of rural reality and they are smashing ratings records along the way. almost 10 million tuned into the season finale of "duck dynasty." is it all that it is quacked up to be? let's take a look. in 1972 duck hunter, phil

robertson wanted to build a better duck call. build it he did, by hand. the following year the duck commander company began and it was a family affair. the robertsons, well known in the hunting world were thrust into the spotlight and a multimillion dollar business. fast ford to when "duck dynasty" was born. it takes viewers inside the lives of phil and his wife, kay, along with their son's family. >> i am only doing this so they will get back to work. >> laid back jase. >> how can we make ping-pong more violent? katie: and even their uncle si gets into the act. the robertsons show us what it means to put family first, as long as it does not interfere with duck hunting season. so, please welcome the men of

"duck dynasty,". have a seat. thank you for coming. so excited to have all of you here today. is it a bit of a culture shock for you guys to come to new york city? >> very much so. somehow katie, you seem dainty to be a duck girl. katie: come on, i am a duck girl, phil. come on. i know this is not your first time to the city side. what is the weirdest thing about being in new york city? >> too much concrete. too much concrete and not enough trees. katie: really?

>> yeah. katie: let's talk about your backgrounds. i am fascinated by this cultural phenomenon of "duck dynasty." it is a huge hit as we mentioned. phil, i know in the 1960's you were a quarterback at louisiana tech. you played along side terry bradshaw. >> actually ahead of bradshaw. katie: yeah? i don't know who say this is, but accding to some people you had a better arm than terry bradshaw. >> bradshaw went after the bucks and i went after the ducks. both of us turned out pretty well. i saw him the other day in the airport. he grabbed me from behind. i haven't seen him in 44 years personally. i said bradshaw, you have done well. he said well, you have done well. probably well to get an episode where we take old bradshaw duck hunting. katie: i think you need to take me duck hunting.

see, i am starting to take y'all. my dad was from georgia. >> georgia? katie, we are beginning to bond. we are beginning to bond. honey, i didn't even know that. katie: my mom's family most of them are from alexander city, alabama. >> we will take you duck hunting if you think you are up to it. katie: i think ian handle it, but i don't want to shoot snakes. >> unless you see one that is ready to bite one. katie: it is in your blood and in your heart and soul. it is also beautiful. it is so well produced. some of the shots of the great outdoors, makes you feel you are out there with you guys and makes you appreciate nature. so much of us are not in nature so much of the time. >> we love the beauty of it, ok. out there enjoy's god's creation. there is nothing finer than seng something that looks

like mosquitoes and three seconds later you hear -- and then you are shooting them. it makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck. katie: how did you turn this hobby that you love so much into a multimillion dollar business? >> we took the duck calls. dad wanted to make videos. we started filming. nobody had a clue how to film. we rented cameras. dad got the guys at the church that do the sound. went out there and we started to make videos. it took off and was all over the country. we got calls and calls saying i would like a this and a that. i remember dad saying we will make a t-shirt with duck commander on it. that is a good idea because we sold a bunch of those. katie: it started to catch fire. then you connected with these reality tv folks. how did it go from that to now

this? >> well, we ended up on outdoor tv. i wasn't sure if we could make it looks like we do. we ended up doing that. that was successful. we get a call from a producer out in l.a. he said i make shows. he said i think you guys have a great show. he said i think you have a show rehere. we discussed it. a and e came out of nowhere. i don't know if they knew the comedy and how funny it would be. we don't look like comedians but it turned out fun and he family oriented and they had a hit. katie: jeb, how has your life changed? >> it is czy. you go to the groceryry store a it may take an extra 30 minutes. i was in the gym the other day. i am bench pressing. i look around and i see a guy taking pictures of me. i am like i need help man, put

that phone down. katie: i saw the episode about your daughter having a boyfriend. you took him duck hunting and all of your anxiety over h dating and kissing a boy and how nervs. i thought that is just like any american father who is really starting to freak out when his daughter starts dating, right. i don't know if most fathers would take the kids duck hunting or kill snakes. is he still in the picture? >> he is innocent the picture. katie: gee, i wonder why, willie. >> he gone. >> to get to the heart of a guy a lot quicker when you look like we do and you are out in the woods and you have weapons. they are listening to everything you say. katie: i also think one of the reasons the show is so successful, you know, we live in such a high-tech world and we are connected to our digital devices and our computers. i know you are anti-technology a little book.

you wrote a new book, phil, called "happy, happy, happy." >> i am happy for high-tech. i never owned a cell phone or turned on a computer in my life. it seems like it is a little much for our children. all the time. katie: it takes you away from the actual act of living so much. >> so i did the simple thing. i would take my grandson's cell phone and throw it in the high weeds. katie: i should mention too, obviously you guys have made a lot of money doing this. butou are very philanthropic. you give a lot back. >> mostly the church but we help out on a lot of different things. miss kay, you are a woman and so is miss kay. katie: thank you. >> she said phil, i stayed with you when you were mean and we were poor. she said now you are kind and we are rich.

rich is way better. i am just saying. katie: well, miss kay is great. in fact when we come back we will meet the "duck dynasty" divas, including miss kay. the women join us right after this. >> coming up next -- >> he was the one. i just knew it. i knew that about him. >> how the rural men landed these southern beauties. then what is uncle si's secret? >> hey, when you got it, you got it. >> and later. katie: rural reality feud. >> it is a rural reality showdown, "swamp people" vs. "duck dynasty." showdown, "swamp people" vs. "duck dynasty." katie: you guys have ♪ ♪

"the democratiparty of virginia sponsored this adad."

ken cuccinelli is on a mission. he wants to overturn roe v. wade, in virginia, to make all abortions illegal. cuccinelli even tried to bully the state board of health to get his way. the virginian-pilot said "the consequences of such a politically motivated precedent could be significant." cuccinelli's war on abortion, even in cases of rape or incest. ken cuccinelli. he's focused on his own agenda. not us.

katie: so, our next guests spend their days in the steamy bayous of louisiana surrounded by alligators. not your idea of a good time? well it is to them and to millions of people that turn in every week. take a look at the history channel's "swamp people." way down south in the bayous in louisiana, hunting is a way of life. one season is the biggest and it only lasts a month. gator season. troy landry is known as the king of the swamp. he and his sons jacob, chase and brandon put their lives on

the line going after these giant critters. as if spending the day with enormous alligators was not enough of an adrenaline rush, the landry family prides itself on kicking it up a notch. >> oh, my god. >> the work is dangerous and the stakes are high. but to these guys it is just another day at the office. so, please welcome troy landry d his sons, brandon, jacob and chase. hi. how are you? how are you? how are you doing? hi guys. nice to meet you. have a seat. how are you. thyok you so much for coming.

nice to see y'all. you will have to teach me how to speak a little cajun. what did you say to me? >> how are you doing. katie: a little french thrown in there. how did you guys get in this crazy line of work? were you born into it? this is something you have been doing all of your life. >> yes, ma'am. katie: what is it about it that makes it appealing to you? >> what makes it appealing to me is that it is dangerous work but i feel that being in the swamps is one of the last freedoms. you have to work hard to make a living. it is not a guaranteed paycheck at the end of the week, kind of like in the old days. katie: brandon, can you explain why alligator hunting is necessary. a lot of people would think it is weird. >> there are so many out there you need population control. it gets dangerous, you know. they are overpopulated in the

waterways that people swim in. have you kids out there. you know you feel like you are out there protecting other humans by taking care of the population. katie: and what do y'all do once you catch the alligators? >> we bring them in and sell them to a buy they're takes them to a processing plant. nothing on the alligator is wasted. they don't only use it for the meat and the swin, the head and feet. >> none of it goes to waste. are are we all have back scratchers. katie: how dangerous is this? because when i watched the show -- first of all, i think y'all are crazy. can i establish that here and now. i respect what you do. but i mean it would scare the heck out of me. do you have close calls ever? i have seen you? >> every day we are out there it is a close call. you just have to be careful and take precautions. as long as you stay safe

everything turns out just fine. >> what was it like when you first did it? >> i was too little to remember my first time. katie: how old were you? >> around 7 or 8 maybe. >> younger than that. >> every alligator is different. every single one acts different. but when you catch the real big ones, a 12 footer, you never forget them. katie: one of you got in the water and wrestled with one. did you ever do that troy? >> i had to do that a couple of times. katie: you did? >> yeah. katie: did you think this could be it? >> you don't even think about that. it is something you do every day. you just do it. >> brandon, you had a regular office job. >> yes, ma'am. katie: then you started doing this. >> sounds crazy. katie: yeah. what was it like making that adjustment? >> the family needed the help.

we have two boats. my dad's helper couldn't do it this year and he asked if i could help him out. i asked work ficould take the moh off. you know it was great to just be out there with the family and to know that i was helping them out and to take care of business. it is a big difference from the a.c. to the heat. very long days. the most manual labor i have done in a long time. katie: why do you think the show is so popular? >> the beauty of the swamps fascinates a lot of people. the danger of the alligators. some of them just to see a different way of life. i guess you can say we are the amish of the swamp. i guess. katie: and before we go, again, like "duck dynasty" some of the shots are really beautiful. some of those shots up close to the alligator, i think that cameraman must be wetting his

pants right now. how do you help them get used to be so on top of those gators? >> that first couple of days they stay in the back of the boat. but we had a close call last year. one of them started to g comfortable. the alligator turned and get. the teeth mark in the camera was an inch away from where his hand was. he was done for the rest of the day. >> ruined the $3,500 camera. katie: you have to be careful. >> he had to change his pants. katie: ok. on that note, and it is fun to watch you.

katie: rural reality shows have taken over our tvs and d.v.r. we seem to be addicted. the rural concept is not entirely new. take a look. in 1962 the overall clampetts loaded up their pickup trucks

and drove into the hearts of america. we watched as they brought their country shenanigans to the glitz and glamour of beverly hills. he classic show green acres. these days the hotst shows on tv take a page from the country roots, rural reality takes us out of the city and deep into the country. the woods and even the swamp. shows like "duck dynasty" and honey boo re comes boo. these days country folk have been crowned the new reality royalty. and for now, they are here to tay. our next guest is a reality tv expert who wrote for the "new

york times" and n.p.r. here to shed light on the rural reality phenomenon. nice to see you, andy. all right. reality tv in general seems to be taking over the airwaves. why is that? >> i think because scripted shows got lazy and did not have really interesting, compelling characters or people with spectacular facial hair. now we have real people living their real lives. katie: and we have more in common with these people. >> absolutely. they are totally relatable. watch and see reflections of your own family and maybe our family can be more like this or maybe i will make sure my kids don't ever do that. katie: do some people watch the shows because they are making fun, you know, exposing honey boo boo. it is so funny. she is only 7 years old to the

constant scrutiny and the presence of cameras all the time. is there shiething irresponsible? on the other hanthey are probably making enough family where she can go to college and perhaps they couldn't afford that before. >> absolutely. i think there is positive benefits. they are putting all of the money away into a trust fund and living their lives before the cameras. but there is a possibility for impact of how the filming is affecting her. i think network executives to producers to family members need to be conscious and ask what effect does it have. we need to make sure we are not harming people. katie: and mtv's buck wild features people in dangerous situations. do you question that? that seems to be a long way to go for sure entertainment. >> right. shane's death is tragic. but it occurred when they were

not filming. this is the type of stuff he would do when there were not cameras around. it is a lot of crazy, bad, dunken behavior. i think that is something worth exploring. katie: how long will this rural reality trend continue? it was the glamour of the real housewives. now it is theant dote for that. >> absolutely. i continuing comes in waves. we have short attention spans. we will get bored with it after a while and something new will come in. i hope we move back towards the documentary shows that made the genre popular to begin with. katie: andy, thank you for coming by. if you would like to read andy's eight things you don't know about reality tv head to our website at katiecouric.com. up next i am learning the call of the wild. duck calling ♪
