In Chuck Anderson's first interview with Baxter Black, the duo had a strong rapport. So, Chuck had to visit Baxter again. This time, it was in Baxter's home in Brighton, CO.
The two men picked up right where they left off, which was basically when Chuck lost control over the interview and Baxter switched roles.
Baxter welcomed Chuck to his home, apologizing for a "missing wall" that he removes every summer. Chuck was so comfortable in his environment, he forgot to introduce himself until the second minute of the interview.
The men were very observational comedians throughout the interview, first noticing Baxter's wife roaming around. Baxter introduced her to the listening audience, giving them a detailed image of her appearance, almost like a commentator telling the physical stats of an athlete.
Chuck was stunned how Brighton made no mention of Baxter on its welcome sign. Baxter, in his mind, was an underrated celebrity. Baxter said the original sign which did mention his name was burned down when he was "mayor" of the town.
The men then went off on another tangent (a common habit between them), talking about their recent trip to a 7-Eleven, where Baxter was looking for a compressor for a drip sprinkler. Chuck made an interesting assumption about the lady behind the counter.
Baxter then brings up his career, talking about his new book, Hey Cowboy, Wanna Get Lucky?, which has been on different bestseller lists. Chuck brings up Baxter's secretary, Cheryl, who he jokes is secretly ciphoning off the success of her famous boss.
Both men discover that they share a passion for the outdoors, in the form of trout fishing and hunting.
And to end the visit, Baxter performs another of his cowboy poems.
