It's "gutsy macho talk" not " a gutsy macho talk" (the second is just about feasible I suppose, but I'm sure that's not what they had in mind). The meaning is just the sum of the individual words, which have their ordinary dictionary definitions. org/wiki/Country_blues

"gutsy" is an adjective to describe something brave, and sometimes foolish.

That was a gutsy thing to do - walking in front of the bull with a red handkerchief dangling out of your back pocket!

Macho describes someone overly masculine, someone with swagger and bravado. It is usually used as slang. "Macho Man" was a hit song - and describes the phrase perfectly.
