The Ozark Thumper - Coward, South Carolina
This week, in Coward, South Carolina, a divorced couple can't seem to stop fighting, with the wife constantly stalking the ex-husband, and even severely beating him with a large stick that's used to check a large truck's tire pressure. When this man disappears, everyone assumes that his ex had something to do with it, but it seems like it may be "no body, no crime". Until one day, when a man recovers what he thinks is a pumpkin, wrapped in a towel. But it definitely isn't a pumpkin. Things get really crazy form there!!
Along the way, we find out that naming your town after an insult that no one wants to be called is an interesting choice, that an "Ozark Thumper" was not at all what we thought it was, and that if you're going to get rid of a decapitated body, you need to find a REALLY good hiding spot!!

In some states you can bury a loved one on property if they own the land but it does need to be verified and get the stamp of approval. Neighbors have nothing to do with it in my state.
I listen to you mfkrs way to much! During a conversation my wife Ginger she said yay!...I said yay indeed Ginny, yay indeed without missing a beat like a lunatic because no one else had a fkn clue what that meant. Sláinte
Best 5bucks I've ever spent.
Genuine question here. Why is it when a man is abused and beaten the question “what did he do to deserve that?” Is always the question asked? No one would dare do that from a woman that claims abuse.
The question was asked more as "what set her off" and if you think people don't say that about abused women, you have not been paying attention. It's only *recently* got a teeny bit better. FFS you could legally rape your wife up until 1993. Cut out the incel bullsmurf.
Next time you boys are on the road, hit up a truck stop somewhere. You can get you a thumper at any of em. Didn't know that was what it was called but they look kinda like the thing the Big Bossman had.
I have a tire thumper! I keep it in my car for self defense
James!!!! Old time trucker here. Those are called tire thumpers. There is 18 tires to check pressure on and easiest and fastest way is one of these or a hammer. The tires have a certain sound if they are properly inflated and if leaking air they sound like hitting a watermelon. Most semi trailers have self adjusting airlines on the tires they look like tubes. Jimmie, when are we going to run off and get married your my soulmate lol
Grew up with some not nice people and they called the Ozark thumper by a not so PC term.
It seems that Brenda looks, as Austin Powers would say, “rather mannish.”
I'm so excited for this episode! I live in Florence County and have done the canopy walk at Lynches River many times! My 4 year old loves it.
Is it me or does it seem that trailer park inhabitants are incredibly well represented in small town murders?
I used to sell the thumpers when I worked at NAPA. I always thought they would be a nasty weapon
James's Smurf this smurf you crashout made me laugh so hard i scared my cat
i grew up trailer trash with new pickups, a weldcraft boat, gun safe full of guns… welcome to montana 😂
This episode was just smurfy!
Ricky bought it on a dirt bike! Gets me every time! 😂😂😂
Every time James said hoe, I laughed like a third grader.
“Smurf it! Smurf my life!”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My (now)ex-wife and her boyfriend (we were separated at the time) attacked me with two beer bottles and a Ozark thumper, then I got charged with misdemeanor aggravated assault and felony assault with a deadly weapon, luckily my lawyer was able to beat the charges and get my divorce done.
My favorite way Ricky died was in a tragic rope swing accident. You guys are the best!
my cousin ricky died in a logging accident in the 80s!
I don’t know why, but “inside dog” made me laugh so hard.
I have a tire thumper my grandpa gave me to keep in the car as self defense 😅 that's how I learned about them. They usually have a metal rod through them as far as I've been told (mine does), and mine kind of looks like a short bat lol. It works! Some guy tried to get me out of the car at 3a in a dark gas station lot, blocked my car in, and I pulled that out of the back and he actually peeled out lol. They mean business!
I feel like I should add that my grandpa was a good ol boy from Chattanooga, TN lol.
Please make a custom STM ozark thumper I will buy 10
I wanna take a trip to Chicken Shit, South Dakota 🤣🤣🤣
What's the Coward high school mascot?🤭
Anything you can imagine, because the real one is hiding! 😂
Bullsmurf 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My Ozark thumper is a rubber mallet and it is ABSOLUTELY how I check my tire pressures.🤷♀️
Choo choo!
trucker here...we all carry thumpers to quickly check all 18 tires for inflation because you can have a flat and not feel it driving. we check em this way throughout the day. its not to check psi, just that they're holding air.They will fuck you up if you get hit with one
I feel the need to add- in the old south this tool has a different (derogatory) name.
Has Jimmie never seen Duel??
Nobody has seen Duel. ... I've seen Duel and I still haven't seen Duel.
She-ra!!?
