VIDEO Swamp People’s RJ & Jay Paul Molinere on ‘Bayou Time’

ByDarren O

This is what I like to call going “next level” reality show reporting. Folks out there can’t seem to get enough of Swamp People and it almost always comes down to how darn genuine the cast members are and how real they come across. Well if you love you some Swamp People, especially the realism of it, then you’re going to be singing, “laissez les bons temps rouler” when you see the following clip of father and son gator hunters RJ and Jay Paul Molinere on local HTV 10’s “Bayou Time.” Man I love me some RJ!

But how much are these guys really making?   What kind of money are we talking about?

PHOTOS BIOS Swamp People Fathers and Sons: RJ and Jay Paul Molinere

ByRuby Turpin

RJ and Jay Paul Molinere are the latest father and son addition to The History Channel’s immensely popular reality series Swamp People, but they are anything but new to hunting alligators. They are members of the Native American Houma nation, which used to kill their alligator prey by pushing a long sharp stick down their mouths. These days RJ and Jay Paul use a rifle . . . and an airboat.

Read bios of both men, including a video clip of Jay Paul kicking butt in an Mixed Martial Arts bout and a link to RJ giving an arm wrestling tutorial. (Did I mention these two were tough?)

Swamp People Fathers and Sons: Meet Troy and Jacob Landry

ByRuby Turpin

If someone told me that I was going out into the bayou tomorrow to hunt alligators with one of the guys from Swamp People and I had 30 seconds to choose which one, I’d have 29.5 seconds left over. I’d choose Troy Landry as fast as my mouth could form the his name. No doubt.
