Old Testament Yeah A lot of Old Testament Yeah All Old Testament Prepper That's a great way of putting it Yeah

Yeah That's a Yeah Dusty's in India right now Checking out the moon landing He wants to investigate it That's a great way of putting it. Dusty's in India right now checking out the moon landing. He wants to investigate it. You know, India just sent not a ship, but what, a capsule to the moon? With people in it? No, but they landed on the south pole of the moon.

Nobody's ever done that. Oh, big deal. 70 years too late. People from India? What do you mean? Swing? Yeah. Wait, they landed on too late. People from India? Yeah. What do you mean? Swing? Yeah. Wait, they landed on the part we can't see? I don't know if we can see it.

It's at the dark side, but I think we just haven't landed on that part of the moon. They were upside down. Yeah. So they're hanging on. Huh. I saw they were doing it because they said they looked fake, right? Because the video looks weird. It's like not clear.

Yeah. Yeah. And they show that there's a camera because it shows it landing. And then there's a camera that from the from the ground. So I don't know how that can't like, where's that camera? Well, that's not real. Is that it? It looks like a cartoon.

That's what they were showing. I think that's an animation, right? I don't think so. I think that's the real footage. Oh boy. Bestie is going to have a ball when he gets back. Yeah, it looks a little bit like a video game. Yeah, but I think people were just saying that.

Who knew they were even trying to go? You think... It's... You guys got that flag. It's like Kornheiser. Yeah, guy's got that flag. He's got the corn hyzer. Yeah. He's got three flags behind him. Let me say,

I'll wait one more. Uh, I wonder if you got to let everybody know, like if you're a country, you got to go, you got to call the other country goes at like the very last. You're like, all right,

I'll see. Oh, I've got to say we're, uh, we're going to go to the moon and you go, all right, dude, I don't, that's fine. He goes, all right. Well'll see you. Oh, I forgot to say, we're going to go to the moon. And you go, all right, dude, that's fine. He goes, all right. Well, you might have to ask. You guys don't have anything there, do you?

Yeah. Are you all trying to go to the moon? We're going to the moon. Flight plans. Yeah, I wonder if you have to say. You probably do have to say. Is anybody surprised? There's just a guy there like, whoa.

Yeah. Take a look. Bangalore. Well, I don Yeah. Yes. Take gum it. Bangalore. Yeah. That's good. I said that, right? I don't know. I've never wanted to go to space.

I think that's frightening. Yeah. I mean, if like wealthy, all those people that want to go to space, I've never wanted to go or look at it or hear about it. What do you think that impulses? You do get to a level of wealth where you just, I got to leave earth. I think you can't be born in Knoxville. I was born in Adams. You can't be born in Adams.

You definitely can't be born in Adams. I think that's a little far out of reach. You got to be like in New York City. You got to be something that you're like the moon would be a possibility. We're just trying to get you downtown Nashville. I know. Which is frightening. All those people

twerking. And all that dope. A lot of carts with dope in it. I've seen it. Carts? Seems like they had carts with dope in it and you could buy it people were scooting around those carts yeah with dope in it yeah and then it seemed like a lot of a lot of girls with jiggly legs and i say that because mine jiggle but they're on scooters and they're jiggling and everybody's drunk and you know it just seems it's a lot for me it's a lot

i'm a grandmother you know i don't want anybody to get a brain bleed i just worry about that kind of stuff yeah i don't like there to be a bunch of partying going on because i have already been through all that and seen that and i just don't want people to have that much fun because I think it's, you know, sinful. And somebody's going to get hurt. I don't like all that. Yeah. Yeah. I like for everybody to act right.

Yeah. You know, I hate to start this podcast out like that. I love it. This is what we need. You're filling in for Dusty. This is exactly what we need. Is that what he's saying? It's the same rant Dusty would be going on.

Trust me. Yeah. And Aaron needed to hear it going on. Trust me. Yeah. And Aaron needed to hear it. Yeah. I did. Yeah. I've been out there on those scooters downtown. You like it.

Yeah. With girls. Yeah. Pedaling and doing. Did you ever have fun? Yeah. I've had a good time. Yeah.

In college, you would drink like, what'd you say? 30 beers at a time? Well, we don't need to get into the statistics of it. Well, he shared it on this podcast. You said that? That was a long time ago. People had forgotten. Okay.

I've had a good time two or three times, I think. Yeah. Yeah. I've had fun a few times. Yeah. Okay. Have you? No.

Okay. Straight and narrow. No. That was 100 years ago. I'm 100. So, you're just young. And so,

you know. You're saying I should be having more fun than I am, No, I don't think so now. No. Okay, now it's too late.

Now it's too late. It's too late. You have two cats. I think you're having the most fun. I think you have all you can handle. You're right,

for now. That's for sure. It's a lot. It would appear that Notre Dame and Vanderbilt are headed for a collision in the college football playoffs. That is right. For now. That's for sure. It's a lot. It would appear that Notre Dame and Vanderbilt are headed for a collision in the college football playoffs.

That is true. Both 1-0. How about that, dude? Both undefeated. Beat Hawaii. Beat Navy. When are you guys going to get a scoreboard?

We've got one. It sways in the wind, but we've got one. But you know, there's a lot of stadiums that when they're being built, they play and they don't have

half the stadium. Like everybody got mad at Vanderbilt. They're redoing their stadium. And so they're playing and it's not finished this whole season. And so everybody's making fun of Vanderbilt. And I was like, oh, I guess that's crazy bad. Then you realize everybody does this. They all play on stadiums that are half built.

That's for sure. And they're in the middle of it. But it's just fun that it's Vanderbilt. Well, and Vanderbilt's probably putting money towards cancer research. Right.

Y'all are saving the world. Yeah. Because the University of Tennessee, we've got all of our scoreboards. Yes. Because that's important to us. That's all you got. Vanny had 21,000, which I think they were proud.

They barely beat your attendance at Bridgestone. But I'll point out to people the Wilson County Fair was going on. So cut us some slack. And that is a good fair. It is a good fair. Speaking of fair, I was at the Alaska State Fair this weekend. Is that what you were doing, my darling? And was that fun?

It was very fun. We were supposed to get in one day earlier, and a flight got delayed. Even when I went to Australia, my flights outside of America, all great. The past three flights I've had, except today. Today I had a flight. That was a 7 a.m. flight. But besides the past three flights, I've had to spend the night somewhere. Like they're not making it.

Really? When we were going to Australia, our flight did not make it in San Francisco in time. So we were either going to have to go fly to San Francisco and spend the night there. And I was like, well, I don't want to do that. I'd rather just, so we just stayed home and just missed the day of Australia. And, uh, then when I come, when I came home from Australia, we were supposed to be home and, uh, we did not get on the flight home to Nashville. And so we had to spend the night in Dallas.

And then, uh, on the way to Anchorage, we had to spend the night in Chicago. Oh, my darling. Yeah. It's not good. It's not good. Something. What was going on? Especially the mess Anchorage.

Nothing. I don't know. You know, just whatever that's, they're delayed. It's just the airports are really bad right now. But it wasn't weather or anything? No. No. It's just not good.

And we got on and off. Something was wrong with the plane in the one in Nashville. We got on and off it twice. Twice. And then they were like, we can do it. Yeah. And then we made it to Chicago. But then it was two, we already missed that other one.

In Anchorage, there ain't like anything like going to Atlanta. There's, you have that one boat out. Did you get to see a big whale or angles or anything like that? We saw a grizzly bear. Yeah. Yeah. We went on. Yeah.

So we're supposed to do this float plane, which I was very excited about. And you go to a glacier and you go to this place with those bears and all this other stuff. And that's the thing we missed. And so we couldn't do that and so then we went on a hike and we did this long i mean it was like i was 14 mile hike wow and it was yeah it was a lot and uh you ran a 5k i took his breath away yeah it was a lot oh it's a lot yeah and then uh we gasped and when we did it we didn't see anything on the way out and but supposedly this was like a local hike and supposedly there's a lot of animals

and uh but we didn't see any it was the weather was not great the whole time we were there and then we're going back and eric uh the barber he spotted uh he hunts so he's good at like spotting stuff and up on this ridge was a grizzly bear and then we saw him and uh and it was crazy it's so crazy it was so big it was it it it was it was very far away up this ridge but did eric eric post yeah he did and then uh it was it was such a crazy, like, I mean, dude, we were so excited. I was so excited. It really made the trip. Yeah.

Not that I didn't. I wanted to, I just wanted to see more. Yeah, it's like right there. So it's way up there. We have binoculars and you can look. It was just eating. And I mean, it's, yeah, it's pretty crazy because you're just seeing it like you would see there and it was just eating. And, uh, I mean, it's,

yeah, it's pretty crazy. Cause you just seen it. Like you would see it like on a TV show. Right. That's the crazy. You're in its yard. You know,

you're in its territory. Yeah. It's not, you know, I think if you, if you, you feel, it feels something different when you see it and there's no guide with us.

There's no, it's not a zoo, man. It's not a zoo. It's not someone going, here's where I want to make sure you see a grizzly bear. It was just. Were you scared?

It was. I wasn't scared. I liked it. I mean, I. Chase, who's with us, he looked at it. He goes, all right, it's good. Let's get out of here. He wanted to leave immediately.

Because they can run fast. Oh, they could have hauled down that hill. No problem. Taking all of them out. Yeah. If it wanted to leave immediately. Because they can run fast, can't they? Oh, they could have hauled down that hill, no problem. Taken all of them out. Yeah. If it wanted to. If it wanted to start running towards us, we wouldn't have been able to make it back to the car. We were still seven miles from the car. But it's way, way up that mountain.

I mean, it would have had to be a whole thing. He would have had to have wanted to be like, I don't know if he could have even seen us. He could probably smell us. They have the same eyesight we do in hearing. That was so pretty good. Yeah. So if you saw him, it could probably see you. It was very hard to see him.

Very hard. There's three of you. I know we have binoculars. Oh, okay. That's the difference. I doubt he had them. And you yelling hey bear yeah it's like what is that yeah yeah it sounds like we're trying to get but he was just there eating and it was it did get weird when we started walking and he would walk he'd walk kind of sideways with us but on the mountain and then we would stop

because you'd want to you're just kind of like let's just keep an eye on where he's at. And we'd look through it. Then you couldn't find him for a second. Then you're like, oh boy. Because he could have come, he was like,

like a racehorse kind of thing. Oh yeah. I've been to Alaska twice. It wasn't to do comedy. It was with Clayton Holmes. And I went on a float plane and the little man. What is Clayton Holmes?

My husband's company. I thought it was a guy. Yeah. I went out there with Clayton Holmes. I don't know who that guy is, but all right. You ever seen his Netflix special? Because I do a bit about getting on a float plane, and that little man, that little crusty man that flew it,

who was a bad mama jamma and had a pack of Marlboro Reds in his pocket. flew it who was a bad mama jama and had a pack of marlboro reds in his pocket but he asked us all what we weighed in front of other people and we all lied yeah and then you get on that plane you think we're all gonna go down because we've all lied yeah it was only 10 of us but it was nifty but it was glaciers and but the way he flew you it was like white up here white down there you didn't know where you were and then you couldn't get your bearings and then we flew to a lodge where they started the dead rod and they say and they cook dinner for us and they said we're cooking salmon and just know the brown bears are going to smell it and they're going to come up

and they're and just get in the lodge when they come up and i'm like what i mean but but flying over we saw moose walking bears they also said the inuits made a deal with the brown bears and said do not attack us and we won't attack you and that said that nobody on that little island where the Inuits were had ever been attacked by brown bears because they made, the natives made a deal with the brown bears. They signed a contract. Yeah. Well, it was, you know,

unspoken thing. Would you have done that? Yeah, I would do all of it. I would love to go see everything. I would love to go. But I mean, if the bear was attacking you, he was like, hey, can we just make some type of deal? I. I would love to go see everything. I would love to go. If the bear was attacking you, would you be like, hey, can we just make some type of deal? I think I would bring up, if I knew an Inuit, I'd say his name. Jordan

Tutu. Yeah. He goes, is that Ringwell? He goes, wait a second. You know Jordan? He wouldn't even stop. You did it too, didn't you? The flying? I did a plane like that. Yeah, it wasn't a float plane. It didn't land on water or anything, but it's pretty awesome up there i'm going back in september oh yeah i got a i got a show in ketchikan alaska did i say this joke uh i told justin

say i don't know if it was mean like uh alaska is a big man hawaii Hawaii. Because you get experience in nature keeping your clothes on. You don't have to take your shirt off. This is 100%

Big Man's Hawaii. This is your temperature that you want to go. Like this is just Hawaii is. Light jacket weather. Yeah.

Yeah. That's the dream. Yeah. This is like perfect. What was the weather like? I told him this. And I mean, I feel bad coming up with a joke, but it was, yeah.

I was like, it's a perfect joke. I got a big man all white. Just a big man up there. Just like, this is great, dude. They got a chair. I mean, not too hot, not too cold. It's perfect. It's perfect.

Yeah, it was like 62, very rainy yeah uh very windy though i mean it sounds great yeah nice breeze nice breeze uh it was yeah it was we had a little blast i it's i ready i'm already ready to go back because we were i was there so short of a time and i want to go back and and spend a week and or just go out and i want to take that, and I want to go back and spend a week or just go out. And I want to take that plane, and I want to go see these animals. And I wish I could have done that more. Seeing that bear made everything. Because I've always wanted to see just out in the wild.

Well, if you want to be disturbed, go to Skagway and go on the brothel tour. There? There is a brothel tour. Chuck and I thought it was a history tour. Well, they said it was a historical tour. It was brothels from when the gold rush,

men would go out there and hire women. And there was different degrees of women there were women that were in the brothel and had a bed and nice wallpaper they could pick out their own wallpaper and then there were there were women that were in sheds they cost a little less then there were women that carried a mattress on their back and, they just lay in a ditch. Wow. This is the Red Onion, the Red Onion Saloon, Profile Museum.

I'm telling you, you know, I don't know. There was a girl in a saloon dress that said, she said, shimmy across this street and follow me. And we didn't know what we were getting into. That's crazy crazy look at them bless their hearts yeah so one would wear they'd wear mattress on their back just strap a mattress on their back and then get in a ditch i'm just saying what it was yeah right and then but the girl the the i guess the really cute girls got to be in the brothel.

Oh. And there was alcohol being served and they could pick out their own wallpaper. Oh. For their own little room. Yeah. That's nice. When was this, like 65? When was the gold rush?

When was all that hoopla? I think 1849, right? 49ers. 49ers. So, yeah, like pre, right around Civil War time. Klondike. All those men. You know what I would say, right? 49ers. 49ers. So, yeah. Like, pre-right around Civil War time. Klondike. All those men. You know what I would say, too?

This would be Alaska. It's, like, when you look at it, we talked about it. We talked about Alaska. It's so big. But, you know, like the Sarah Palin thing, when they talk about the Russia thing. It is true. Russia is there's a point it's like 60 miles

yeah it's close it's very close connected by ice yeah like it was like I mean I don't remember the context of what it was but when you go there you're like yeah but I mean it is they act like I feel like when everybody made fun of it it's like well it's this crazy far away or whatever the

reason is and then you really look at the map and you're like, it's very close. Spitting distance for sure. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we're there to rush. You go up to, I mean, you have to get way on up there. Yeah. Then you throw something over there.

I don't know. But it was, it was light till 10. I want to go back. I mean, I'd like to go with a little bit earlier. I think the weather's a little better. July. I think July is when we went. It was very pleasant.

Yeah. We well watched. Yeah. I didn't get to do that. Yeah, that looks like those girls that took us on a tour. That girl on the left looks like Chuck. Chuck put on a dress and a little lipstick but yeah that's what those girls and they took us through that

but we did that we did the float plane you got to go to the to the taco lodge taco lodge t-a-q-u i think is what it's called. I didn't think you had to spell taco. When you started spelling taco, I was like, I think we got it. T-A-K-U. I think. Glacier Lodge. Yeah. We went there and they cooked salmon for us. And they said big old mosquitoes were there and big bears.

Did the mosquitoes. I mean, did you see the bears? They came up? Yes. And we got in the lodge. Yeah. They smelled the salmon. You know, my son's an outdoorsman, so he loved it.

He loved it. But my girls loved it, too. Yeah. You are out there. It's a long flight. It was a seven-hour flight from Chicago. Wow. Yeah.

It's not easy. It was to L.A. Yeah. It's not easy. It was, to LA was five and a half hours. It doesn't even look real. Did you notice that? It looks like a picture book. It does. And then you try to take pictures of it

and it just doesn't do it justice, right? It's beautiful. Yeah. The State Fair was, you just had mountains. It's hard not to be on stage looking at those mountains.

And then you just. Were there a lot of people at their State Fair? Yeah. Were women making jelly and that kind of stuff? I didn't get to walk through the State Fair, really. So, I don't know. They had big vegetables are a big thing there. And then I'd imagine, yeah, I'd imagine people made jelly, I guess. Yeah, maybe blubber oh

could have been you know some kind of whale oil yeah it was in uh yeah like you had those mountains back there so you're just like looking at those and it's uh wow very windy but it was the crowd was awesome and yeah you just stare at those mountains though you could get get yourself lost in there i like forgot where i was at one point because you're just looking at, I mean, it's just so crazy looking at these mountains. Yeah, it's up there. I told them that's where I'm going to go if America falls apart because I think Alaska, they would probably just be like,

we're just going to be our own thing now. Yeah. And everybody would be like, yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah, of course. Yeah. That's where I think, you know, of course. Yeah, of course. Yeah. That's where I think, you know,

because you always say, people always say, where would you move to? I mean, I think you have to go up there if they let you. They might shut it off. But I did a show,

I would mention that. I go, I did a show. You don't have a comedian. Right. New Zealand and Alaska in August. Yeah.

I mean, we talked about that. Maybe nobody's done that. Yeah. The two places you want to escape to. Yeah. Australia, New Zealand. Did you love New Zealand that much? Yeah.

You didn't? I've never been over there. New Zealand was great. It was great. Yeah, you're on the edge of the earth. But Alaska is America. So there's something that feels better about it. Yeah.

Something feels free. Well, you just got your own plug. It's like your everyday stuff is just your plugs are there, your this and that. There's a 7-Eleven. I mean, yeah, it's not that I wouldn't get used to New Zealand, but it is nice when you're like. It feels a little more familiar.

Yeah, like Puerto Rico. You can still be tropical, but yet you know it's America. Right, right. I know, yeah. And there's a place in Satica, Alaska, or Satica or something in Alaska, and their average temperature is 48 degrees.

Not that bad. Y'all like coal? Are y'all saying to me y'all like cold weather? I love it. My husband loves cold. I don't necessarily like cold weather, but it was

Sorry. What are you looking up? It auto-corrected the swastika, Alaska. Sorry about that. That's a town? This is just darren's history yeah i think i don't think it's sadika or yeah something sitka sitka yeah yeah sitka alaska it looks average temperature it's 70 degrees there right now but it said the average temperature was 48 degrees. Look at that bald eagle. Yeah, that'd be a good place to go to.

Yeah, man. Big time. Look at how beautiful. The little town that I went to where the Inuits made the deal with the brown bears, I can't remember what that was called. It's in the inner passage. We stopped at Skagway and then somewhere else and that and that little town had a high school of like 19 kids and five of them went to

ivy league oh wow uh-huh harvard and princeton yeah and that had they had totem poles and your totem pole was your family and all that. It was really interesting. Yeah. And we whale watched there. From the beach, from the side? We went out on a boat that was just for whale watching and big whales with eyeballs would come up. It was nifty.

Yeah. Yeah, that's pretty awesome. When did you go? My kids were little the first time we went. And then they were probably like middle school, fourth grade, something like that. And they loved it. Still talk about it. Yeah.

We took my parents and my mother and father-in-law. Yeah. And it was a cruise. And it was kind of cruise where you didn't vomit. You know, I don't like Caribbean waves. Yes. I'm very sissy. Me too. I'm the worst. And this seasick? Yes. I'm very seasick. Me too.

I'm the worst. And this one was like glass. And you could just sit out there and watch eagles. And they'd dive down, get fish, come up. I mean, it was unbelievable. I think my parents went on a cruise there, too. And are you staying in hotels, too? No.

Or are you staying on the boat? We stayed on the boat. Yeah. Wow. With a bunch of kids. Yeah. Is it a huge cruise ship i think that one might have been one of those princess kind of something like that yeah i think that's a probably a good thing to go how to go see alaska i'd imagine and we just

stopped at those little towns and you want to just go out there i want to go and just be we're on that hike i mean still there's still some people but man there's so much that you want to go i want to go and just be we're on that hike i mean still there's still some people but man there's so much that you want to go i want to go to where there's nobody leanne have you watched the show alone on netflix have you heard of it no they send 10 people out in the middle of nowhere they get to bring 10 items with them and they give them cameras and it's just the who can last there the longest oh my people last up there 90 days. I mean, four or five months. Is it normal people or are they, is it celebrities like Corey Feldman?

Oh, no. Okay. It's normal people. Yeah. No, these are people that this is what they do. They like, they're like into wilderness survival and stuff. So they're into it. And if you win, you, for the last person standing, you get 500 grand. So like they're motivated to survival and stuff. So they're into it. And if you win, for the last person standing, you get $500,000.

So they're motivated to stay out there. But part of it is appealing. I think my boy could. Yeah. He's got two babies now. He can't go anywhere. But he's a minimalist and survival kind of. He knows that kind of stuff.

How does it? Do they just finally say i give up or does people stop them like you're about to die or the ones i've seen they come out they do a medical check and they're like you're gonna die if you stay out here so they so they yank them but a lot of people tap out if they're like i'm sick of this i know i'm not probably not gonna win yeah i'm hungry yeah so they just tap out yeah yeah, they got a thing with a button that they press. Chuck Morgan watches a show, and it was on last night, and it's people nude out in the wilderness. And it blurs out their doings.

And I said, I don't want to watch this. It's either watching that or Big Bang Theory. And I don't like all that. And they're out there digging coconut and blurring out their yeah private parts well that's uh naked yeah it's naked and afraid i've watched uh i used to watch a lot of it uh i haven't watched in a while but it is like when we were hiking we were talking about that, imagine doing this and then you have no clothes on. Yeah.

And it's, I mean, you're, you know, it's even if it was 60 degrees and windy and rainy. I mean, it is cold. And you're, it's. Grass scratching up on you and stuff too. Yeah. It's a nightmare, man. Nightmare. Nightmare.

I can't even ride on Delta. Yeah. Without a coat. Yeah. It's like hanging meat in there. I know. Delta gets cold. Planes get cold.

And I said, well, she is a beauty. And he goes, I will text her and tell her you said that. That'll mean a lot to her. And I was like, oh, my Lord. She needs words of affirmation. We all do.

But anyway, he was a doll. We had a ball. And he showed me pictures of his little girl. And he said, she's beautiful. And I'm crazy about her and i get to see her all the time we had a ball where are you from i was in la doing that table read and and he was coming from la and he was going to atlanta and he was doing a cameo in a movie and he was having to read the script and i heard him say to somebody they're killing me and i've got to be up at 6 a.m do i

I don't know. Maybe she didn't tell him about Oak Ridge. I know, but that's the things from Oak Ridge. Yeah. But he didn't know that until you told him. Yeah. And they got in a big fight. I bet he didn't know.

I don't know if they talk about where she's from. I think they just made out. I'm surprised that didn't know. I don't know if they talk about where she's from. I think they just made out. I'm surprised that didn't work out. Drank each other's blood or whatever they did. But no, he was really sweet. But he had on a bunny hat that looked like a bunny had been murdered. But then was doing this. So he didn't want people to know who he was, but he was doing this.

But he had on a hat with bunny ears with blood on it. But he was dressing like him. Yeah. He was dressed like that. Well, it's like, but I don't think... Look at all that hanging out of there. Yeah. He might not have stuff to... He might sit behind a football game with that.

Machine. Machine. Mr. Gun Kelly, could you? Mr. Gun Kelly. Kelly. What would you even call it? Yeah. Colson.

Now I know his name. Colson. You'd be not going to say that. Colson. Yeah. You'd go Kelly. Mr. Kelly. Mr. Kelly.

That's probably what I'd do. Mr. Kelly. Could you take your reindeer head off? Your whipsun chain hat. But I did find this out. He stayed on the plane. Everybody got off. And I didn't know that there's like a celebrity thing through Delta.

Like they'll come and get you. Somebody like him. And the rest of us, you know, get off. But he waits. He waits till the end? He waits till the end and they come and get him in a car on the tarmac yeah i didn't know that we've talked a little bit about that on here before yeah there's some of they pay for that there's there's there's services that you can pay that's

uh yeah i didn't know that yeah no yeah and but it, too. If you fly Delta a lot, I'm sure that his is not bad, I bet. But if you fly Delta a lot, they – I had it when I was flying. We talked about – when I had Delta, when I was flying so much and I was dying with Delta, right when I got off the plane, they had my name, and they took me to my next flight, so I'd make it. And it was like when you're – and they do that for when you're, the people that fly them so much. Yeah. Pretty crazy. On Southwest,

they give you an extra bag of cinnamon grams on the flight. You fly a lot. Yeah. Oh, really? That's our perk. Is it really? That's a good perk. Yeah, that's not bad.

And everyone was darling. So nice. People came. A lot of folks came from the podcast. People came from West Virginia, Maryland. It's like you're from Maryland to see the show. And it was great. And they were going to do it.

But yeah, they couldn't lie. They had to call it audible. Yeah. I was in Boston all weekend. Oh, yeah. Boston. Great weekend. Yeah.

That's a great clip. Boston was awesome, man. Pittsburgh, Boston. Then I was in Cape Cod last night. Just a great weekend, man. Just a great. A lot of people came out. It was just so much fun. So I was in Cape Cod last night. Just a great weekend. A lot of people came out. It was just so much fun. It was cool. We were close by. Dusty was in Portland, Maine. We were all like 45

minutes from each other this weekend. It was pretty crazy. Really? 45 minutes? I don't know. I didn't check the map, but everybody said it's pretty close. Oh, that's so tiny up in there. I don't know. Is it Pennsylvania?

I don't guess that's New England, is it? No. No, I guess not. But you guys were both in New England. Pittsburgh's on the opposite side. Pittsburgh's so far away. Yeah, Pittsburgh's near Ohio. Let me clarify what I just said.

I guess Portland, Maine's close to where I was in Boston. Yeah. And we were close in Pennsylvania. Yes. But not the three of us together. Yeah. Sorry I was in Boston. Yeah. And we were close in Pennsylvania. Yes. But not the three of us together. Yeah. Sorry about that, everybody. Yeah.

Can I tell y'all that I was in Des Moines? Yes. And then I was at the Chicago Theater. But in Des Moines, a bat swooped down at my head. And that is such an old theater, and I know you've probably worked it. I've worked it, and I've had a bat thing hoyt sherman hoyt sherman the name of the bat no the old man that gave a bunch of money yeah and they said we've got a bat problem and uh they said it was a huge bat and it and we were trying to video and didn't get it on video you never get anything fun like that

you're on stage when this is i was on stage and it was eating bugs the first night women in the lobby at the hotel said did you hear us gas i went no and they go there was a bat on stage with you i had no idea the next night i kind of forgot about the bat and i i didn't think anything about it hey baby and i um was toward the end and the whole audience went and I thought somebody was coming behind me gonna kill me I really did I thought well some lunatic yeah yeah and they said it is a bat and they said it's a big bat land and so then you know I just kind of felt vulnerable the rest of the show. What are you supposed to do? I know.

But a little man in the front, I go, can it do anything to me? And he went, no, it can't. But then other people said, oh, they said it likes to get in women's hair. Bats like to get all up in mom's hair. Oh, really? And a mama's hair and get in it and stay in it. Yeah. And keep clapping.

That's mama hair it. Yeah. Well, that bat was having a fill day for your show. That's mama hair 101. True. Yeah. And then the third night, we filmed thinking, oh, that'll be fun. We'll get bat footage. Yeah. Bat didn't come out.

Yeah. It knew. It knew. Yeah, camera shy. Yeah. But little Maddie that's without back said, I've got a net back here. Like, she was going to catch it. But, you know, it added to the show. Yeah, I remember having the bat, and I didn't know it until afterwards.

And I did a joke, and people were like, they gasped. I was like, is that like a fence? I thought I made the crowd mad, but I just went through it, and they saw a bat. Same thing. Oh, through it. And it was, they saw that. Same thing. Oh, my Lord. Yeah, in that place. In the same place?

Yeah. We need to close the windows or something in this theater. They said there's cracks up in there, and they filled the cracks, but they still get in. They said you could see bugs through the lights. They're eating the bugs. It's kind of part of it. You just know going in. There might be some bad stuff.

Doesn't that place smell like cereal? Oh, shoot. I don't know, my darling. Any specific kite? No, I thought they made cereal there. But I could be thinking of it. There is a place that makes cereal. In Des Moines?

And I've been to it. What is that town that makes, and they make all the cereal? Yeah. And it smells like cereal. Yeah. Davenport, Iowa? Yeah. Oh, maybe.

Yeah. We did Davenport. You went with me to Davenport. Yeah. Do you remember it smelling like cereal? I don't. That woman gave us that little tour around the city. That darling woman.

Yeah. She was cute. What kind of cereal do you eat, Brian? like cereal i don't that woman gave us that little tour uh-huh that darling woman yeah uh she was cute what kind of cereal do you eat brian i'm not brand flakes i gotta stay regular so um you know we talked about cereal in here and i said cornflakes was oh yeah that's right the go-to cereal yeah we eat cereal not much i. I like it, but not much. I thought of this the other day. You remember the one that had the red box with the frog on it? Sugar pops? Smack them.

Sugar smacks. Sugar smacks. They were good. Do you remember how good they were? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Do I remember? Do they still eat them?

Yeah. Do they still make them? Oh, I think so. Probably. Honey smacks. Oh. Talking about this right here with the clown on it? No. I don't remember that. The frog. Yeah. Oh, I think so. Probably. Honey smacks. Oh. Talking about this right here with the clown on it? No.

I don't remember that. The frog. Yeah. Oh, they were good. And I do love a Rice Krispie Treat if I've got time to make it from scratch. I do think that's good. Oh, yeah. Homemade Rice Krispie Treat.

My husband's more of the cereal person. We're back into, with Eleanor, now we're doing Fruit Loops, fruit loops cheerios apple jacks anything like that that she can practice on yeah actually out of a bowl with milk no no just individually individual okay yeah all right so you said she could tear up a puff she can tear up a puff yeah she's a my grandpa eats puffs too yeah and he's eating cereal out of a bowl with milk and it is so cute spilling it everywhere uh-huh yeah harper doesn't like cereal she doesn't what does she eat for breakfast uh muffins or you know something like one of those little muffin thing or something she's never liked cereal what are you eating on the road when you go?

Because Chuck Morgan is in my ear saying, you better eat the Continental. It's free. Don't go to the Panera land. Why would you do that? That's stupid. So I have to go and figure out whatever they're... Do you try to eat the Continental in a hotel?

Yeah, maybe they have breakfast there, yeah, I'll go there. I don't always eat breakfast. A lot of times you're on the road. Sometimes you're not even in a hotel. You're just in your bus or whatever. But if they have breakfast, we'll go down and eat their breakfast. But I'm trying to eat more fruit and stuff like that. I ate a lot of fruit this weekend.

I had a cherry plum, and it like that. I ate a lot of fruit this weekend. I had a cherry plum and it was something. It was something. Was it red all the way inside? Yes. Okay, because Charlie Morgan, my boy, said I bought some and took them somewhere and he said, oh my gosh, mom,

I never can find these and it's red all the way through. You can't find them. Yeah, very cherry plum. And I said, now that I know that, you will have it's red all the way through. You can't find them. Yeah, very cherry plums. And I said, now that I know that, you will have plums the rest of your life, honey. Yeah. 50 pounds of plums. It was unbelievable.

Changed your life. Well, I'm trying to eat because I would eat so bad. And I would eat sugar and salt. I'm trying to eat kiwi, too. A bunch of kiwi. Kiwi's good. I like kiwi. I don't think I'd eat kiwi, too. A bunch of kiwi. Kiwi's good. I like kiwi. I don't think I've scratched the surface of fruit.

I've done banana and apple, and I like green grapes. But, I mean, that plum was something. I didn't think I'd like a plum. Oh, my darling. Eat some cherries at night in your hotel room or on the bus before you go to bed and that'll help you sleep. Really? It's got a natural sleep.

Melatonin? Something in it. I don't know what. You know, I don't really pay attention. I just hear the, but cherries, any kind of tart cherry juice

or eat a few cherries. Cherry, zero, Dr. Beverly. Does that count? That knocks me right out. That knocks me right out. That knocks me right out. Let's start with some of you guys' comments.

Jared Showerman. Showerman. Yeah, Schnauzerman. You know, that's like Schnauzer. It smelled like Schnauzer. Schnauman. There's not an N. I bet it's Schnauman. Oh, Schnauman. I've lost a name. I bet it's Schnauman. Oh, Schauman.

I've lost 20 pounds this year on a keto diet, but I've been listening to the latest fast food episode. I drove straight to the nearest Arby's in order of beef and cheddar, curly fries, and Jamocha shake. Aaron Webber special. It was amazing in the moment, and then fatigue and self-loathing kicked in. If there ever is a part three, I may have to reluctantly opt out. Yeah, that's the part you got to get.

When you start eating good or eating bad, that's the thing that I got to remember. You got to remember fatigue. You're like, I'm about to be tired. You're going to feel it later in the day. Later in the day. I can feel it. Right away?

Pretty quick. Middle of the meal away pretty pretty middle of the meal like no man i'm middle of the meal depends on what the meal is but i you you feel it pretty quick you ever tap out mid meal like that and fast food no i get through it i get through it too and then you mean have it like a sinking spell what my people would call a sinking spell what's a sinking spell where you feel like somebody took the air i mean just you don't feel good and you know i gotta lay down i got i need a comedy now yeah yeah yeah yeah it's that stuff that yeah that's it's just brutal spencer cope the care and seriousness with which you took animal fights is what made it great why in the world would you rush through something like this this topic is or

should have been coordinate land so liam last week we did a bracket of fast food restaurants where we took 32 fast food restaurants and paired them up against each other for a winner and people were fired up about i think we may have gotten more comments about this than any topic we've ever had oh really we got over 300 just youtube comments and And people were pretty fired up. Even last night at my show, people were fired up. About? About what the results were and the speed that we ran through it. They wanted to go slower.

They wanted to, yeah, get into it. I took a lot of heat in Boston this weekend. We eliminated Duncan in the first round. Yeah. How are you going to come up to Boston and take Duncan off first round? I was like, sorry. We don this round you know sorry we don't have that uh or we have it isn't it crazy what people get fired up over yeah but i i just thought we just did the animal bracket so i was just like felt like a lot of brackets so were there animals

fighting too yeah we did a whole one with an animal animals you know those those animal fight episode they have like twice as many views as our other ones. Were y'all talking about what kind of animals can survive against each other? Yeah, pairing them up against each other. Oh. Who's the top dog?

The elephant. The elephant won the whole thing. Oh, the elephant. That was the only one we were really reasonable with. Yeah. And then fast food, we were really reasonable with. Yeah. Hmm. And then fast food, yeah, we were getting some McDonald's. But I think we just, we talk about fast food so much, I just thought it'd be like an overkill. That's why it was like, we get so fast.

I think it's the right instinct. And people love McDonald's. Is that the main one? People were pretty upset. Most people wanted us to pick Chick-fil-A. Yeah. Which I love Chick-fil-A. I had no problem with that. I like Chick-fil-A, yeah which i love chick-fil-a i had no problem i like

chick-fil-a but mcdonald's is mcdonald's man come on what are we doing we're not animals yeah yeah oh is it because i love i'll tell you what i love and little caramels and i'll do this and then we regret it and we say why did we do that we We need a therapist. But I love whichever one it is where you get two cheeseburgers. The little cheeseburgers. At McDonald's? It's called the two cheeseburger meal. Yeah, that's mine too. You got to say it now.

It used to be the number two, and then they changed it. It's number seven. You got to say two cheeseburger with a fry. Now it's number seven, or you got to say it. Oh, really? It used to be just the number two. Oh. Yeah.

But I think those little cheeseburgers are so yummy oh yeah oh yeah yeah that's what we're all about i had mcdonald's this morning at the pittsburgh airport you dan yeah their breakfast is great do y'all still like a big mac oh yeah i do too i like a big mac too i don't do that often every once in a while little karen gets real crazy and gets a fish sandwich i like fish i'll get a big mac and a full and a side flare fish yeah i'll do a two big mac meal like you do the cheeseburgers yeah get after it two fries no i'm not'm not. Come on, dude. I'm not crazy. Did anybody say Wanzings?

If there's other... Yeah, I'll get some extra stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Somebody else might want some. I'll get another one. Is this for one or two? There's a family in here, in the hotel. When you get an order of room service. How many people are eating?

Three? You're like, no, just one. Arvid. I'm questioning everything I thought I knew. Krispy Kreme out in the first round? I may have to unsubscribe. Look, Krispy Kreme is, yeah, I agree. Wouldn't have been.

It went up against someone, Dairy Queen or something. Yeah, yeah. Krispy Kreme shouldn't yeah, I agree. It wouldn't have been, it went up against someone, Dairy Queen or something. Yeah, yeah. Krispy Kreme shouldn't have been out that quick, but Krispy Kreme is just not, they're not doing their job as a business. You go there, the donuts are bad. They've been there forever. It's not. Is this just one location that you're talking about or you kind of scout out a few of them? Is this just one location that you're talking about or you kind of scout out a few of them?

I mean, even when I was in L.A., I was going L.A. phase where I would go every morning. When we lived there, I would drop Harper off at her school, her little daycare kind of thing that we went to. And then I found a Krispy Kreme and I would go every single day and get four or five donuts. And it was better back then? It'd be hit and miss. But, I mean, that's when it was starting to be hit and miss, where you would get a note, like, the donuts just are a little bit older, a little bit, you know, they just weren't as good because they've been sitting out.

And then the one over here in Brentwood is, I mean, it has gotten. You go, I'll guarantee you the donut's going to be bad. It's guaranteed to be a bad donut. It's been sitting there for too long. And I don't know why it's even open. So mine is a disappointment in Krispy Kreme. Are they franchises? Yeah. Krispy Kreme. Are they franchises? Yeah.

Krispy Kreme? Are they? Is that? Yeah. Have you ever heard of Krispy Kreme? Yeah, I have. Knoxville's got, I think, did it start? Where did it start?

We started here. No. Because something's big in Knoxville. There's a Krispy Kreme light stays on all the time. But I don't go. I mean, I love a Krispy Kreme. And it's like, do you remember when Duck Dynasty boys, Si, said, if they're hot, you need 12. If they're cold, you need one.

Yeah. They just kind of. Yes. You know. If they're cold, it's. Yeah, that's what I mean. And they've really been cold lately. Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Oh, okay. But I think, scroll down to early years. I feel like there's some Nashville connection. Like maybe. Paducah, Kentucky. Oh, okay. But I think, scroll down to early years. I feel like there's some Nashville connection, like maybe. Paducah, Kentucky. Oh, there it is. The store struggled during the Great Depression. In 1934, they moved to the larger city of Nashville, Tennessee. How about that?

Gallatin Road. You remember? Was that a big deal when they showed up during the Depression? I was there. They opened. And he moved it there because his favorite cigarettes camel were there in the North Carolina city. So he wanted to smoke and eat donuts.

Yeah. This guy sounds like the man. That's fun. He sounds fun. This guy's living it up. I bet that's when they were great. Yeah. The thirties.

Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I do love a donut, but I just don't ever get them because they do make me feel like somebody's drugged me. It's like being Mickey'd in a bar. It's just a donut. Not that that's ever happened to me. I've heard about it.

Yeah. But I mean, I do. I think donuts make me feel like I got to go lay down. That's one of those foods. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's tough of those foods. Oh, yeah. Uh-huh. Yeah, it's tough.

Holly Smith. I'm appalled at how quickly you ran through the Popeyes versus Domino's bracket fight, and you chose Domino's. You barely even talked about the cultural phenomenon Popeyes. What other franchise restaurants do you know that have such consistently poor speed and service, but great enough food that people just accept the reality, wait that long, and ensure verbal abuse. That's a good point.

That's a good point. Yeah. I do like that because it is where it could be the service. I guess I don't go to Popeye's enough. I go through and pick some up from my mom and dad in Cookville on the way home from Knoxville, and they don't give you change back. They go too bad.

Really? Yeah. Shut the door. I go, I think I'm supposed to get cake. Nope. And I just take it. Yeah. Because they like a good, you know, I think is it spicy chicken? And then that sandwich is out of the squirrel. Oh, the sandwich is great. But we don't have the change.

I don't it to the Popeye's foundation. That's very different. But they may story. No, it's just there's no Popeye's foundation. Okay. Yeah. But yeah, it was some young kid and they went, no, you don't. I shut the door.

It's not a bad scam for a kid to run. A teenager worked at fast food. Don't give a bad scam for a kid to run. A teenager working fast food. Don't give change back. That'll add up slowly. Yeah. But you're going to, most people are going to be like, well, you owe me this change. In fairness, it's probably the first time this kid's seen money. I mean, most people nowadays pay with a card.

Oh, cash. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. But I'm weak. And nowadays pay with a card. Oh, cash. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. But I'm weak.

And I think he smelled that. I think most people would do it. I would do that too. To me. If it were like a dollar. Oh, yeah. No, no, no. I would do what you did, Leanne, in that situation.

If it were like a dollar, I'm not going to wait there and knock on the window. I just chalk that up, offer it up. You know what I mean? That's a dollar. I think it was a lot of change, though, that you're supposed to give me. You gave her like a 50. And he was like, sorry, I've closed the door. I'd have to get a manager.

Oh, it's okay. Yeah. And he was like, they're not here. I mean, it just went on and on. I was like, okay. Yeah, but I don't like conflict. So I think I just drove off. But they've got good chicken.

And I think during Thanksgiving, you can get a fried turkey, but you got to order it. I think this is this person's point. Is that happened to you, but you still sing their praises? Yeah. You still are like, yeah, it's good food. I was treated like dirt every time I go, but it's good stuff. It's like an abusive boyfriend in Costco. They like it.

Chris B., you knock out Whataburger in In-N-Out in round one, and then Hardee's makes the final. In what multiverse is Hardee's beating out anyone? I agree. What were y'all thinking? We made some poor choices, I guess. Yeah. Hardee's, their breakfast is something to hang your hat on.

Yeah, it is. I mean, you're not thinking about breakfast. They got a breakfast. But you don't feel like when you go in there, you're slipping around on some grease. Y'all don't think? Yeah. It's dirty. I wasn't thinking about that.

I think a little older Hardys. So it's also, I wonder if it's the age of this person. Because if they go to Hardys and you're like, in my head, I'm picturing when I'm doing delivery jobs and I'm getting Hardys 25 years ago. And you'd go get there early. The breakfast line, it would be, the drop through line was a long line. That was, Hardy's breakfast was. Yeah.

Yeah. And they really, and then they, that's when they added that burger. I think I'm kind of thinking the wrong time. So I could see that. But their burgers did taste like they had been grilled. Yeah. It tastes like, yeah, the thick burger stood out at the time. It changed the game, I think. Yeah, we probably

went too quick, and so that's why some of the stuff was not. But I just thought we did too many, you know, I'm trying to just get a gauge to be, I don't know what people... I think our reasoning was, Leanne, In-N-Out, the fries... I do not like their fries.

Too little? So that upset everybody in California. And then Whataburger, Dusty made the point that since they changed ownership out of Chicago, that they went downhill. I don't know how he knew that. Because I haven't been to one. My kids, we lived in San Antonio when they were little, and they loved Whataburger. And we haven't had one in ongsla i think we're getting one just open one here in uh national right not too long a few around the area

now yeah they're starting to pop up more so yeah give another chance yeah uh joe mackety i love that nate tried to describe to us what bo jang is, like by using this much smaller, even less known franchise. Great job, folks. Talking about Lee's? Yeah. You ever heard of Lee's? Lee's Chicken? Lee's Chicken.

Lee's Chicken. They used to be around, though. A lot of people emailed us and said, yeah, we still got one in our town or stuff like that. The grandson of Lee even emailed us. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, that's fun. Lee Jr. Yeah. Stuff like that. The grandson of Lee even emailed us. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, that's fun. Lee Jr.

Yeah. What is that? He said Lee was like the nephew of Colonel Sanders or something like that. Oh, wow. Yeah. A little family feud. Well, he didn't say that, but just, yeah, they got it in their blood. Wow.

This is what they do. Are they going to send you all some chicken? Yeah. Yeah. I wonder if you go over there, you're always, you know, it's like we're having dinner and partying at our house, and you're like, chicken. What do we have?

We're doing chicken. Chicken when we get in our plane. Yeah. Because they made a lot of money off of chicken. Yeah. I saw Colonel Sanders when I was little. I don't think he's a real person. He was.

I know. I'm joking. At a buffet in Owensboro, Kentucky, where my people vacation. Ooh. Yeah. Y'all flew down to Owensboro. Y'all flew over to Owensboro. Yeah.

Well, we drove. But yeah, they had an indoor booth and a buffet, and that's where we went. Yeah. And every once in a while, somebody like Ricky Skaggs would come through and play. And Owensboro and Paducah. And Colonel Sanders was there. Ooh. I think in his 80s or 90s.

Did he have his suit and stuff on? Yes. Was he doing a meet and greet? No, he was going through the buffet. Oh, really? And I mean, it was Colonel Sanders, but I may be crazy. You may Google something. It may be an imposter, but I was a child.

How old did he live? He was born in 1897. Or this picture, he was born in 1890. He died in 1980. Yeah, he could have gone by Owensboro, Kentucky. He died in Louisville, Kentucky. So he was in Kentucky. Yeah.

Oh, he had to have been him. Day to day, he would wear that. Yeah, he had a bolero on. That little tie. And that white jacket. And that's what he looked like. I'm not kidding, y'all. I could, yeah.

Look at this picture of him and his mom in 1897. His mom looks about nine years old. Yeah. Just different time, huh? Uh-huh. Well, it's a different time. What are you doing? He's using his binoculars.

I was just looking at the picture. Is that how you look? You put your hand. You put your, you like. I don't know what I was doing at the picture. Is that how you look? You put your hand. You put your, you like. I don't know what I was doing just now. It felt, it felt right in the moment. Yeah. I was looking at it.

Yeah. Yeah. I wonder what he did with his money. I mean, what would you do back then? Like buy a Porsche? He's probably before Porsche. No, I don't know. When the, they just probably had land.

Yeah. I bet they just owned a bunch of land and he would do, they probably put it back in his business. And, uh, in 1964 at 73 years old, he sold the company to a group of investors for $2 million. It would be 18.9 million today. Yeah. It would be $18.9 million today. Yeah. And then he retained control of operations in Canada and became a salaried brand ambassador for KFC.

So he was just sold it. And then he was just hired as an employee to be in the commercials and stuff. Oh. So he didn't have quite as much as I thought he would. Yeah. But I mean, I think he had A bunch He was doing alright He was doing alright Yeah

Yeah but not It's a lot It's a lot to probably run that company You know That was good chicken Kentucky Yeah It's good chicken

It is It is Jonathan Eldridge Eldridge Another great episode. Brahms Bates. Keep up the good job on picking subjects.

I've been in more than one argument about how many people you can order for in the drive-thru. I say no more than five. Any more than that and you have to go inside out of courtesy to those behind you. Being the premier fast food podcast, I wanted to see where you guys land on this. Yeah. I would agree with that. don't like order i really i'll if if uh i'll do one and if even if he gets more than that i'm like well let's go inside but if someone else is going to be the one ordering i'll let them order someone's comfortable with it but I get uncomfortable trying to,

what do you want? What do you, you know? Yeah. Yeah. You gotta be smart about it. Be efficient. Get the order.

It's almost not about how many people are in the car. It's just about how efficient the order is. What are we doing? If it takes a while, what do you want? Then they try to yell it out and stuff. Leanne, did you ever order for the whole family in the car driving through places?

I don't know. Were you allowed to drive? Not much. And Chuck Morgan would say, what do y'all want right now? He's a real, you know, dad. Yeah. Yeah. And, you know, you've been to these places a million times.

Remember when Sinbad had that old bed about people going to McDonald's and look at that same menu? Yeah. Go, I don't know. Let me think about it. Yeah. Chuck has no patience. So we all, I don't know. Let me think about it. Yeah, Chuck has no patience. So we all, I'll take the number two. Can I get a Diet Coke?

I remember going to Dollywood with him, and I would be breastfeeding somebody and parched. You know, it takes a lot out of you. Sure does. And he'd go, we're getting one drink, and we're all going to share it. Little children would. And I wanted my children to be hydrated. You know? I went dehydrated for probably 15 years. I think everybody does.

Most people are. Yeah. We would do. We could only get one drink and stuff like that. Yeah. Your little daddy would say one drink and stuff like that. Your little daddy would say one drink. Oh, yeah. You weren't allowed to get.

We weren't allowed to get. We had no soda rule. Chuck Morgan would say nobody gets that adds so much to the bill. Yeah, he did that too. So everybody just get water. There's a water rule. Everybody only gets water when we go out to eat uh-huh we fix that yeah now you're making up for lost time huh yeah it's free refills yeah they don't do free refills in australia most other places i don't think they do you know yeah but that's a little bit i think that's an american thing yeah yeah the huge glass unlimited diet coke

that's america i was at um you guys know canes or raising canes yeah yeah yeah there's a new one that opened not far from maybe the only one in nashville i don't know and i was in there the day and there uh if you buy a certain meal you get a post malone cup. Yeah. Yeah. Post Malone meal. Okay. Yeah. I thought that was an unusual person to have as your, well, that's been an interesting marketing move for some of these companies is have like a celebrity sponsor meal.

Yeah. I think it was Taco Bell or KFC. You're one of them had like a Jack Harlow meal. It's just like an interesting way to, to machine gun, Kelly meal, machine gun, Kelly slash Lee and Morgan meal somewhere yeah she gets the

yeah you get the extra fries whatever fries are left yeah Prentice McDaniel Prentice McDaniel my brother is one of the people that got E.coli from Jack in the Box in the 80s. He was eight years old. Multiple doctors told my mother he wouldn't live. Wow. He had open heart surgery and is living well to this day. Also, we won't eat there as a family

to this day. Oh, Lord. That seems reasonable. I mean, no wonder they sued him. Could you? You seem like you could. At least get some gift cards or something. That guy almost died. Surely, yeah, they paid the medical bills. Well, you'd think so. Yeah,

you hope so. Speaking of bills, Liam, are you signing your life away to a big wireless provider that keeps you trapped like you're on a roller coaster? They probably threw in a free phone and you fell for it. But now you can't get off. Month after month of high bills, overages, and surprise fees.

Colonel Sanders, were people coming up to him when he was? No. No. He doesn't. Like, just this one picture, it looks like he'd walk around, and you wouldn't think, I could go up to that guy. I remember thinking I wanted to go up to him, but I was just too scared. But I was very enthralled by famous people.

You know, living outside of. It was in Crossville, Tennessee. About an hour from Lebanon. Yeah. And that's where we would go vacation. What was it called? Mariner's Point. The big one there is Fairfield Glade.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but we couldn't get in there. So we went to the offshoot Crossville timeshare, Mariner's Point. And so you just shared it with other people? Just like certain times a year, I think, that would be your weekend. And you would go there and have it. We'd play shuffleboard.

Yeah. In Crossville. Yeah. It was a good time. Yeah yeah an hour from your house yeah we drive home at night at hoover dot now we'd stay but well it's probably good to have like i always think if you if you did have something like that would be good to have it close because you would actually use it yeah versus if it's too far if you if you had a cabin in the woods and if you had to be like an hour and a half away, you would probably go to it a little bit more than you would if it was

down at the beach. Eight hours away, yeah. You might go every weekend. It's probably somewhere in the middle. Gatlinburg. Yeah, maybe two or three hours away. Yeah, but you're not going to pop up there as much.

If you drove here to Gatlinburg, you could talk yourself out of it a little bit easier. Okay, I can see that. Because you're like, I don't know. It's just so funny to pop. I could talk myself out of driving to Crossville quite a bit. A lot of people could. Yeah, but if you were like i needed to run if you're an hour away from your vacation spot and it was and it was on the lake

and all that stuff you could even be like i'm gonna run out there today and go fish i'll be back because it's only an hour you would like i'm saying you would use it maybe like that yeah that's a commute people here go to center lake yeah Yeah. And have homes? I think so, yeah. Center Hill Lake? Center Hill Lake. Yeah. Yeah. Remember when we stopped in Pigeon Forge on your bus?

And you guys were going to go to Dollywood, I guess, or whatever. And Aaron and I were, and I was like, Aaron, there's one Uber in Gatlinburg, or Pigeon Forge, and this lady will come get us. And Leanne says she'll drive us, if we can get to Knoxville, she'll drive us the west way to Nashville we went to your house oh that's right you made us breakfast yeah no it's a fun time it was a great day yeah we had quiche yeah why did y'all have to leave we just had to get back for something and great and uh there was one uber and all of Pigeon Forge I think and this lady came picked us up basically it was just her i mean and her car was low to the ground i remember her yeah yeah yeah she it was like it was it was like low on the ground and she pulled me her neighborhood she's like this is the nicest neighborhood i ever seen but you do have a nice neighborhood thank you it's not like this neighborhood yeah yeah um uh but i

see i'm a dollywood fan did y'all have a good time? Yeah Dollywood's awesome It was amazing First time I've ever been And I really liked it It is it's cute Caleb Hufford The Dairy Queens in Texas Have a different menu than everywhere else

Wow I didn't know that Yeah I looked that up They have a sandwich called the dude What is that? I don't know that Yeah Yeah I looked that up That's true They have a sandwich Called the dude Oh What is that I don't know

Sounds good though Trevor Burkett I'm wondering If anyone Has had KFC fries lately They are the most Underrated fry In the fast food game

Very solid taste Great crisp And decent shape With that said The Chick-fil-A waffle fry Is always a let down Oh that said the chick-fil-a waffle fries always a letdown oh boy i need chick-fil-a to do tots or something because the five wiggly waffle fries i get with my delicious chicken sandwich is a true let down uh well oh boy yeah could be i mean i i always like chick-fil-a's fries i think i've had i fries, I've had them too, and they're really good.

I like that decent shape is one of his selling points. It's all right. It's a good shape to it. You might be pointing out that you don't like the stringy fries. Is it like a crinkle? I like McDonald's. I'm going to look this up. Because I do love a crinkle.

New KFC fry. Do y'all like an old-timey drugstore? Oh, for sure. When Revco or whoever used to have a French fry. I mean, yeah, and milkshakes and stuff. This kind of fry. I don't know what you call that, but I can. I thought they had like the more steak fry.

Looks like a seasoned fry. That's what I thought they had. Okay. I'll do some more research. Yeah, do a deep dive Joey Flateau Flateau I had never heard

Lee and Morgan talk Before this podcast But now that I have I wish her voice Was the voice Of my inner monologue Hearing that accent All the time

And just her personality I would be happy all the time Joey You would think that Thank you Joey But after six hours in the car You're like Can we turn on the radio for a while?

No. What happens is I start talking to her like 30 seconds after. It's just hard not to. Everybody does it. I know. My wife does it within 10 minutes. Yeah. It's very.

I'm being around you, Leanne. She'll come home and go, yeah, I met this woman at work. She was just darling. You've never said that in your life you know it's going in a doing it's infectious going in a doing yeah well thank you joey yeah i love being here with my boyfriends yeah we love it well today we are talking about parenting um you just became a parent to a new a new one right cat forget another cat i should say so i feel bad that i'm on this podcast and not dusty but maybe i can give a

different perspective than the three of y'all i'll take the kid side in some of these well a lot of people says get up get a pet first before you have a child to see if you can be responsible with them do people say that that? Usually it's a dog. Keep it alive. Did you ever do that? Yeah. I mean, we got our crazy dog. It's harder than the child.

So we have. Oh, you had a dog. Like, yeah. I thought you meant like earlier. No, I mean, everything I do is about 25 to 30 years behind when you're supposed to be. So yeah, I did get a dog at 49, and then I had a baby at 50. You're like, your life is like Cuba. You just got the wrong jerseys and the old movies starting late.

You got cars for the 50s. Yeah, everything's a little. I got DVDs. You go, golly, dude, I just went and watched that new movie, Forrest Gump. And then you're just over there, and you're like, what? I go, yeah, I just went and watched that new movie, Forrest Gump. And then you're just over there. And you're like, what? I go, yeah, it just came out last week. I got a preview of it.

Finding out a lot of stuff. Yeah. Let me ask this real quick. Are you the cat person or is Lucy or both of y'all? Lucy's the cat. She had a cat when we met. And we had the one cat. But just recently, Nate's sister, Abigail, who you met earlier, found the cat. She had a cat when we met. And we had the one cat. But just recently, Nate's sister, Abigail, who you met earlier, found the cat.

And we took it in. So we've got two now. I don't mind them as much as I used to. I kind of like them. You do? They're low maintenance. They kind of just, you don't have to take them out for a walk. You don't have to let them out.

They just kind of do their own thing. You're not scared? No, these are very friendly cats. They've never bitten me or anything like that. Just hanging out. I think I've just always had experiences with rough. Feral cats. Wild cats. But

good. Yeah. I like them. You do? And they're sweet? Yeah, they're nice. How old are your kids, Leanne? They are now, Charlie just turned 30 last week. Okay. And then Maggie's 27 and Tess is 25. Is there anything you would do differently, what you know now?

Oh, I'd do a lot of things different. Well, I'll say that. Let me think about that. I mean, I think I did a pretty good job about most things. They're sweet. They are compassionate. They're not. The baby's kind of spoiled.

The rest of them are not. But I think that between me and Chuck, because Chuck's a hard ASAS. Can I say that? Sleep that out, guys. We're at the 119 mark whatever that is um and he you know like gotta suffer everybody's gotta suffer and i but i do think that was good that we did not fix everything i think a lot of people in this generation try to fix everything and the kids that my kids grew up with a lot of you know are great but some cannot cope effectively and i think it's because you do have

to have some you know suffering that builds character i think and i think we did that well i think i could have pushed them more in school i was was at Dollywood, you know, having a big time. We blew it out and had a big time. But I'm about fun and I'm a dreamer. Oh, so the kids were with you? Oh, yeah. We were at Dollywood. I thought you were leaving them at home and just living it up at Dollywood.

No, I'm not an amusement park person. I'm not one of those people. But, yeah, we had a good time. We laughed. And I think I could have pushed them more. And they did fine in school. But, you know, how people like, your people are education people, right? And you're, yeah, the teachers love me because I wasn't a butt to them.

You know, and they said I had sweet kids. But, yeah, we lost papers and stuff, you know, and I wasn't organized. I wish I could have done different than that. I should have been more organized. But I do think I've raised sweet children that know how to cope effectively if something goes down. Yeah. You know, and I think if you fix everything. Yeah, your children are great.

Thank you, my darling. Thank you. Yeah, you can tell. Yeah, you can tell when I saw that we were this weekend when we had a layover in Chicago. Chicago has the biggest Starbucks, four floors. Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah, it's cool. And then so we went in there and this and sitting right next to this little girl is with her brother.

And then like there's a, you know, everybody's sitting at a table. And the little girl just, both of them just stand on the table. And the parents are not right there. And I just saw that, and I was like, you don't have to be perfect, but it's like, just, your kids should not. Stand on the table. Yeah, stand on the table. And it was the girl doing it. It wasn't even, I mean, already the girl's probably not going to stand on the table. Yeah, stand on the table. And it was the girl doing it. It wasn't even, I mean, already the girl's probably not going to stand on a table

because their girls are a little more, a boy can be lunatics and they can do more stuff. But it just stood on the table. And a guy that worked there had to come back and go, hey, could you not stand on the table? And then I saw the parents come over and they were, I mean, it's,

they didn't, you know, they're just like, not really think about it. And you're like, how do you not, let me ask you all this. When you see a situation like that in the public now,

do you have, do you immediately sympathize with the parents in a situation like that? Or are you harder on the parents? I probably blank. Cause I always think Harper's always been pretty good or great. Harper's been great. She's never, she never really threw crazy fits. We never had, you know, I mean, she, they throw kids could throw fits, but we never, I don't, not that any that we can remember where it's some just the whole store is like looking. And so when you see that you know we only have one uh you just kind of think yeah you cannot have them do that if you just you know it's gonna be a

little stern with them or you grab you know it's like if she is gonna do something you pick her up grab her and i'll walk right out like one of us you know i'll walk out laura walk out someone she's getting outside. She might throw a fit to us privately, but it's not going to happen. How old were these children standing on the table? I mean, one had to be, that girl had to be 10. Oh, gosh. Yeah, see, that's not good.

That's crazy. Yeah, if you're thinking about a toddler, they don't know. A 10-year-old knows. But a 10-year-old knows. Oh, yeah. Why is a 10-year-old in a Starbucks? Well, they, I mean, people give kids caffeine. They drink caffeine now.

I mean, they drink it early. They go and, you know, like they need it for school. And I mean, it was, I thought coffee was bad my whole life. I thought you weren't allowed to drink it. And then, but yeah, they drink it. I don't know. I mean, there's, yeah, when you see it, you see them in line and like, you know, I always feel bad on a plane. I can tell.

On the way to Alaska, we set, but this baby actually was really good. But going to Alaska, this wonderful young couple, they just had a little baby. But the baby did good. The baby cried a little bit. But it's all just normal. No one would ever get mad in a million years because it's a seven-hour flight to Alaska. Yeah. It's a baby.

It's a baby. And it wasn't like, now I've seen it where the baby's crying, where you're going like, you're the problem. I had a flight this weekend where it's baby just screaming nonstop. And my instinct as a guy without kids is to go, geez, dude, get a handle on your baby. But then I'm like, I thought about it. I've never had to deal with that. I don't know what that's like. So maybe I can be a little more sympathetic to parents.

Yeah, but you got to, it's just got to be looking like you're trying to. Everybody could be sympathetic. But that's why I was like fond Southwest when Harper was young. Cause I think everybody's super sympathetic. Southwest is always just kind of like, it's okay. But if they look back and you get your headphones in and you're the parent. Yeah. And you're like, I don't care.

Then yes, I, that's where it looks bad. But yeah, I see kids still fits and you can just tell, I think you can tell when, uh, they're, you know, they're going to let the kid do whatever the kid wants to do. And it's hard. It's hard for me to tell her no. Yeah. You have a joke where you talked about Billy Ray Cyrus in an interview. Miley was his best friend

they like smoke weed together yeah and you said you weren't going to do that your daughters cannot be your best friend right yeah i just don't think that's a good idea and i think you know miley was on nick at night i think it's around she was on nick at night on a stripper pole probably about 16 somebody asked me about it in audition for a talk show i said the wrong answer i didn't get it but i'm more of a stern you know southern mom i don't think anybody ought to be on a strip pole at 16 i'll just say it and i don't think y'all to smoke dope with your dating yeah not on nick at night and i'm sure and i'm sure i'm not on nick at night. And I'm sure, and I'm sure I'm not on Nick at night, but I'm sure Billy Wright is a doll. Yeah.

You know, hitting a bong. I've talked to him once. You have? We were trying to do like on a phone call. He's out there. Out there? That's what I've heard. He's out there. He gets a yard chair and just sits out in the yard and watches people go by? I mean, that guy

has been so famous for so long. Forever, yeah. And then you add on Miley. And I bet she would. More famous than he ever was, right? Is it even close? I mean, I don't think it's close in the fact that at the time when Billy Ray Cyrus got famous, it was the most famous in the world when billy ray cyrus got famous it was the big most famous

world achy breaky heart was was so big and at that time he was as famous as just one it's that yeah and then uh miley is the new age of fame but they've never had a break of any sort of reality i mean it went from that to she's on that show to being i mean she's a superstar i and i feel like she could be i've never met her i don't know anything about her but she seems like she levels down she's like leveled out a little bit like she seems like more uh she was doing all this as a kid like who knows it must have been crazy yeah i don't think you have any yeah i mean in that world yeah i mean you know does he even remember going to the store or something like kentucky yeah right he from uh ashland kentucky like would he remember like even though they grew up like that, I mean, he probably,

how old was he when Breaky, Achy? Achy, Breaky Heart? Yeah. 20s probably. Yeah. Yeah, 31. Oh, when that happened? Because that came out in 92.

And let me just say, I think they all got off dope. Let me just say, I think they all quit smoking. I think they did. All right. Good for the family but I mean you know just when you're a minor I don't think it's a good thing

to smoke marijuana with your children it's crazy that you say something like that that is a controversial take there and we don't but you're right and I had writers

that was Leanne Morgan who does the things children should be doing drugs Leanne go ahead and spell your name Leanne but I do I had a writer for a sitcom He thinks children should be doing drugs. Lee. Go ahead and spell your name, Lee. But I do.

I had a writer for a sitcom that didn't make it. And he had worked with them. And he said, I mean, they can't help it. They're not tethered to the earth anymore. Yeah. Their whole reality. They're just not even tethered to the. When I talked to him, he was on.

I mean, it was a ride. Does he look at trees and talk about the trees and that kind of thing? Was it a Zoom? Because he had the Holy Spirit. I mean, he has got the Holy Spirit. He was Pentecostal in Ashland, Kentucky. So once the Holy Spirit's in there... his grandfather was a pentecostal preacher how about that i didn't know that played baseball in college yeah and then it just

thought you know their other played baseball in college georgetown college oh sweet yeah in kentucky fun their other daughter noah cyrus actually like her music better than miley's really got some good stuff so there's four types that's her other that's Miley's. Really? She's got some good stuff. So there's four types. I didn't realize that was her. That's her other. That's Miley's sister, yeah. Oh. She's cute.

Does he have two girls? That's all he has? I think they have a bunch more kids, too. Those are the two that are. And Tish, you know, they got divorced, and she just remarried somebody. Oh, Tish Finley. There's four types. Psychologists say there's four type of parenting styles.

Hold on. Is there a country music like tabloid magazine? Was there ever a country music tabloid magazine? There's country. Country weekly. That was like, you know, star. I don't know. Or did they all make it in the big one? Yeah. Taste of country. I don't know. Or did they all make it in the big one?

Yeah. Taste of country. I don't know. I don't know if that's like, it's kind of like country music. Stars are mainstream pop stars. Yeah. They're covered by TMZ.

Yeah. And people, but it seems like people protect them more. I think nobody ever talks about Sweet Dolly or Morgan Wallen's gotten in some trouble but he's young he'll get over it he'll get over it that's your people

he's sweet he's got the Holy Spirit he's in there didn't he want to date your daughter he did they went to Chipotle and yeah but she said, I mean, darling, sweet, but I did a show with him,

and this is how I know I could never be on America's Got Talent. I could never be a judge because I don't have the sense to know when somebody's a star. He and I did a show together, and I remember thinking, oh, bless his heart. Not that he wasn't great. I just thought Nashville and this whole thing, it's going to be a holy nightmare. He needs to buy more mowing equipment.

Because he told me and goes, I mow. And I thought, I need to buy some, get the zero turn. Because this is a hard row to hoe. And he was a doll. And we exchanged numbers and precious. And then he saw Maggie on Instagram and asked her out. But anywho, I mean, think about how huge he is. It's unbelievable.

And let me tell you that he did a video for me. There was a little girl at Children's Hospital that was going through cancer. And he did a video for her. And y'all would bawl your eyes out. It was so sweet. Yeah, he's sweet. He's a sweet kid. He'll grow out of all that

honky-tonking yeah you know yeah yeah if i'd have hit it big when i was his age i'd be in a crop top doing horrible things because i already did horrible things in the 80s i did i loved so much i made out with people yeah, I would have been a wreck. I would have been like Molly on a wrecking ball. Yeah. How old were you when you had your first child? 27. So that made you settle down finally.

It did. It really did. I'd settled down kind of before that, but I always wanted to be a mama, and I wanted a bunch of kids. But, yeah, I did. I was in the foothills of the appalachian mountains with chuck morgan and he was working 24 hours a day and it was me and charlie and we had a ball and then i had maggie right after i mean i had them all close together yeah had a ball now

i got two grand babies almost three and three months old yeah and it's yummy yeah i just got them a bubble mower bubble mower uh-huh people said you mow and bubbles come out oh for kids yeah i thought i'm a morgan wallen it could be some kind of dope apparatus yeah bubble mower mower. He might have his own bubble mower. But people have asked me, they go, what have you spent money on since you've been on tour? And the only thing I've spent money on, I got my grandbabies a really good swing set, big playground swing that doesn't splinter. You know, the kind that mine had, you know, that you got too hot, burn your legs.

My babies have a good one that somebody had to come and put together. Oh, that's big. On a pad with, I got landscaping boys to put in a pad that if they fall, it doesn't hurt. Oh, nice. Yeah. We'll play with that forever. I mean, that's. Yeah, I know. It's a great gift. Thank, nice. Yeah. We'll play with that forever. I mean, that's. Yeah, I know.

It's a great gift. Thank you, my darling. It's got a climbing wall. Picnic table. Oh, wow. Climbing wall. Yes. Wow.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Swing sense. Okay. There are four types of parenting styles. I'm going to see which one y'all are. Okay. Authoritarian.

This is like the tiger mom that my way or the highway, very disciplined, very strict. Authoritative, which is still setting reasonable boundaries. It's still, I'm in charge, but firm but nurturing, they say. Permissive, which you can probably figure out what that is where the kid basically runs things and neglectful which is nate um when you're just the kid barely knows your name or maybe somebody at a casino well i was authoritative if that's the second one chuck is like my way or the highway and i'm nurturing but i didn't let them go nuts. And I think that's a good place to be.

Yeah, totally. Yeah. I'm probably in the middle of the authoritative and permissive. Yeah. Probably right, right, right in the middle of that.

Yeah. I'm probably permissive. Eleanor's learned just in the last week or so to start going to me for stuff. When, when Ruth says, like, if there's certain rooms she wants to go in and play in or go outside,

she'll just grab me by the shirt and just pull me to the door. Cause she, you know, she knows I give in and I am going to be her best friend, Leanne. I'm sorry. I don't have a best friend. I never had a baby at 50. So I'm sorry. I don't have a best friend. I never have.

I had a baby at 50, so I'm sorry. Well, that's okay. She's my best friend. All right. I get it. You do that. I watched, I told Nate one time,

I said, there's like three TV shows now I can watch not cry because being an old man and having a kid, just everything. I watched Goodfellas the other night

where there's multiple terrible murders. Yeah. People getting killed in a terrible way. That doesn't bother bother me but there was a scene where ray leota you've got some good fellas ray leota's wife in a huge argument and their little cute little girl comes running out and it scares her because they're fighting with each other and that broke my heart more than anything yeah people getting killed because i just you know there's a little boy last night at this show i was at this church fell down hurt himself i used to not even pay attention now i care because

i just think about my daughter yeah you should probably pay attention anyway when a kid falls well i should just step over i used to root for that dumb kid should maybe um testosterone do you want to get that checked? You know, I'm about hormones. You crying a lot? Oh, his hormones have to be. I don't have hormones anymore. I don't even have estrogen.

You know, we talked about John Ream. Was on my podcast. Yeah. And John said that he didn't have any testosterone and he went to Walgreens. Well, that's a good thing for him. I'm sorry. Oh, because he liked the ladies. Yeah. And John said that he didn't have any testosterone and he went to Walgreens. Well, that's a good thing for him. I'm sorry. Because he liked the ladies. Yeah.

John catted around. But he's with somebody now, right? And tickled with her. So I'm sorry I interrupted you. He went to Walgreens? He went to Walgreens and started taking something over the counter. And it brought him back up to good levels. And he's got this girlfriend.

Low T. Is that what it's called? Low T. Something like that. Yeah. A lot of people take testosterone now. Workouts. Everybody does.

If you listen to Sports Talk Radio, it's like all it is. I'm like, do they find me somehow? I know. Have you ever got yours tested? Yeah. Yeah, I don't have any left. Oh, yeah. You got no T.

Yeah. I go to the no T center. At this point, it's a good thing. I don't tea. I go to the no tea center. At this point, it's a good thing. I don't care. I don't have time for tea. Yeah. I like being-

That's a low tea person. You like being emotional and crying. I don't have a problem with it. Yeah. I'm old. Live it up. But I think that just happens.

Men get so emotional as they get older. Yeah. You just, I've seen it in people in my life. Before this podcast started, we were downstairs. Nate was wrestling with Harper on the couch. And I found myself just that. Tearing up.

Yeah, I just think it's sweet. And I love it. Because y'all used to wrestle like this. Brought back memories. I'm like, we used to do that. No, Harper took my place. No, I just think it's very sweet. It is sweet. You've got a sweet baby. Well, thank you. And y'all say, old, I'm like, we used to do that. No, Harper took my place. No, I just think it's very sweet. Yeah. It is sweet.

You got a sweet baby. Well, thank you. And y'all say, old, I'm old. Oh, let me tell you, y'all are not old. Well, we don't say y'all. They say I am. But you're not. Just talk about one person.

Well, I agree with you, Leanne, but, you know. I know. I just get around a lot of people, and I'm 57 now. And people go, oh, I'm 40. And I thought, I can. I know. I just get around a lot of people. And I'm 57 now. And people go, oh, I'm 40. And I thought, I can remember turning 40. And Chuck Morgan made me go and get my passport picture made. And I cried all night that I was turning 40. So I still have that same passport picture.

And I'm speckledy face, you know, when you're crying. And I'd show it to people. And I look like somebody's whipped me but then i the next day i was okay but i think oh my gosh i'd give anything to be 40 yeah that's a baby eat a lot of blueberries and salmon like madonna did that's what she did she did and she can still drop it like it's hot she's odd but she can drop it like it's hot. She's odd. But she can drop it like it's hot. She looks terrible. Yeah.

Well, that's some plastic surgery. I know. But she's got... I don't think she has inflammation in her knees. That's what I'm talking about. She's 65. She can still, like, squat, bonger. She's 65 years old?

I think so. I think she just turned 65. Yeah. And look, I bet she's squatting bonger in some of those videos. Oh, my Lord. I don't know what that is yeah i know what do you uh what kind of day does madonna have just to can you imagine i know look how cute she was yeah just what if you're madonna yeah what are you doing during the day? She's doing it right now. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, and she was so famous.

Do you think young people know her? Yeah. They know. Yeah. Just because her name is Madonna? Her name is Madonna. She's kind of grandfathered in. You know, there's a huge celebrity.

There's never. I don't know of anyone my age cares about her music ever. You know, they know it. They know the big songs yeah it's played everywhere all her stuff all the time that's my age i was it was big yeah yeah i had a root and a dark lipstick i think she just had combat booze wasn't she just in the hospital yes heart issues she had something go wrong look at little Brittany. They're kissing. I remember that. That was disgusting. I remember all of us

going, what the? That was the worst thing we'd ever seen when that happened. Lord, now Brittany's dancing in her panties. That'd be a kid's show now. Nickelodeon Awards.

That's a ride at Disney now. You just go. But I just watched A League of Their own yeah uh she's great madonna's in it yeah and i guess i didn't fully understand that was probably a huge deal for her to be in that movie at the time right now it's like i don't even care that she's in it like she's like an afterthought to me but she was oh you mean a huge deal at the time when the movie came out not for her before but for... For the movie. Yeah. It's like Taylor Swift being in a movie. Yeah. It was.

Oh, and guess who else is in that movie? Who's that? Etta Mae. Is she really? Etta Mae's the catcher. No way. Yes. Remember Etta Mae? She was the catcher. It ruined her knees because she had to squat.

Oh, man. Hold on. I'll find it. Etta Mae. Did commit. Uh-huh. Etta Mae, Brenda Farrar. Oh.

Was in that. She played the catcher on the other team. Well, while you're looking for that, tell us about Gooder. Gooder. Gooder sunglasses. I wore them.

they're, they're, they're awesome. They're, you could, you could have a bunch of them and then just have them places. And cause you always wanted polarized. That's what would take stuff to be expensive.

like it's a bad way to save. Just do it throughout the whole year watch your pennies and the dollars take care of themselves or something he'd say yeah that's a good saying yeah never heard that watch your pennies and the dollars take care of themselves i know i'm just green but okay yeah i like to piss money away at McDonald's on the T-Cheeseburger oh sorry P-I-S-S

Leanne used to be clean I know I'm just going crazy I know before you know it I'll come back in here and I'll look like Madonna I know blow my lips up just talking about Leanne's not been reality for... She's not tethered to the world anymore.

She's not tethered to the earth. I looked up some of these celebrities that didn't raise their kids maybe the best. Some of them... Joe Jackson is the famous one. The Jackson family. Reggie Jackson. The Jackson family.

The Jackson, yeah. Janet is doing pretty well janet sweet yeah yeah what is he tito i'm sure he's sweet is he still with us i don't know i don't know what well yeah he was just uh just so authoritative i think you were just mean to the kids and i don't know if he beat him but um but like tito still alive by the way oh good I always thought he looked sweet are you talking about Joe Jonas

and Nick and all them because they've been raised sweet I'm talking about Michael Jackson's dad oh are we going again with like

who hasn't raised children yes sweet or just kind of notorious parents notorious parents oh gotcha

okay yes you know I watched that movie King Richard actually I mean he did some stuff that was a little over the top. But I thought that movie, I thought he did a lot of good stuff too. And obviously his daughters turned out pretty well as far as tennis. I love that movie. Did y'all see that movie?

I watched it some of the other day. Kind of the back half of it. It was just on. I was surprised how good it was. I loved it. I was too. I didn't think I could watch it because of Will Smith. I think I got really over Will Smith, and I could be kind of okay watching him now.

Yeah. But I don't really want to watch him. Don't you think Jada was all up in that and tormented him, and he snapped? Don't you think Jada was all up in that and tormented him and he snapped? No, I do. But it's really changed my look of him and view of him that I don't. It makes it where I go. I do not have a desire to go see a movie he was in.

And it just, King Richard was like on TV, you know, and I just kind of saw it and I've been on the road and I was like, all right. And I just kind of, and it is, it's, it's good. So you got to keep you with it. And he's good in it. But yeah,

I, yeah, something, man, it turned me on. Like after that happened, do you think that he was in a closet rocking? Probably still in a fetal position.

Yeah. Well, there, yeah. Yeah. Their parenting is a little probably different too. Yeah. Yeah, they have some crazy parenting, I think.

I think they talk to their kids like they're all equals or something. You can't. You're asking them. Yeah, you can't do that. Yeah, I mean, good parents, that's everything. Just be there. It's everything. Just be there. It's everything. Yeah.

But now mine are grown and they're really like good friends now. We can be friends now. Relationship does. Do you like, are there, what are the things you like about, now you have a relationship with your adult kids. Like what's different about that? You know. They're fun. Yeah.

You know, and we have a good time. And I really enjoy being with them. And they're all close in age. So when they were little, I mean, it was hairy to go to the beach, afraid somebody was going to get, you know, jump in them. And amusement parks and all that kind of stuff, it was hard. But now, I mean, we're all close. Charlie's got two babies.

His sister helps with the babies. They're in love with them. It's like being with your best friends. But it's family, and you know you can trust them, and they love you no matter what. Yeah. What was the difference between raising boys and raising girls? The girls are very sharp, I think. I think men are smart.

I don't mean to say that. But girls, from the time they're little, can kind of run stuff. Yeah. And they can say, like, you need your hair highlighted, girl. And you need your flu shot.

They would say that to you? Yeah. I mean, they would say. Get your hair out of that, girl. Yeah, they'd be like, Mommy, it's time. You need to get your hair done or whatever.

They kind of, like, mothered me to my boy. Your kids would tell you to get a flu shot? well they do now okay i'm taking like six year old it's time for your booster body your kids are around the covid vaccine yeah they're pushing in Oh, no. But what was I saying? Oh, Charlie was very kind and sweet and mild-mannered, but he was the first one. And I think ordinal position has something to do with that, too. But he was wild physically.

Like, he wanted to jump off of stuff. The girls never wanted to do that. He was wild physically. He wanted to, like, get out the front door and run down the yellow line. I had to watch him all the time, but he liked to be outside. But very sweet spirit and kind. The girls are sweet, but they were hateful. Two at a certain, and they can't help it.

And I really believe that. I was scared of both of them. But it was like middle school, them okay and that but it was like middle school but they couldn't help it that's just hormones and i wasn't hormonal and everybody's and they're trying to so it but but it wasn't often but they couldn't help it and that's okay they're just emotional girls are more i think more emotional but sharp and and also think girls will take care of their brothers and keep them together and their families together.

Like Charlie loves his sisters, but his sisters are the ones that initiate for everybody to be together and all that kind of thing. Right. Girls keep relationships going. For sure. Don't you think? Yes.

And then boys, I mean, but Charlie always protected them. If somebody wanted to date them, I mean, he was ready to kill them. Like, we had to hold him back. Yeah. You know, there was a time when he was going to try to get somebody out in the woods, you know, and I had to call the principal, and somebody was messing with Maggie, and I had to call the principal, and I said, I think something's going to go down. Like, if you don't do something, he goes, I get where he's coming from, but tell him, don't do it.

I would have to kick him out of school. So it doesn't sound like we had all this underground. We did. I knew everybody, you know? Yeah, yeah. But anyway, Charlie was very protective. That sounds really twisted. He wasn't going to kill anybody.

I don't mean that. Right, right. He just was going to take up for his sister. Yeah, exactly. But he's very protective of them. But they were more emotional. He's more level-headed. Like when they got to fighting,

because they're only 20 months apart, or we were fighting, he would just go outside and take his BB gun and just, you know, shoot at the tree. Because he didn't want to hear it, you know. Yeah. He liked to get out and fish or do whatever. But they're all yummy.

And now I got these two grandbaby boys that are fun. They're going to be fun. They got a good. The new one is an infant. The one that's about to turn three, he's got a good sense of humor. He's fun. He thinks I'm funny. You can tell that early in a kid.

You can. Because she thinks she's funny. So this kid gets it. This kid's smart but he's got it you know like he you can just tell that he's he likes things that are funny and he's got a good sense of humor yeah and he's fun i wish dusty was here because he's in the potty training phase for his two-year-old and he's got some pretty funny stories of she just brought him he's like what you got there she just had it in her hand so uh he's told me some funny stories about that i have to take i don't know when the sense of smell kicks

in i feel sorry for my daughter because when i'm at home alone and i go to the bathroom you just gotta take them with you the bathroom shut the door i think this poor kid she's just in there having fun and i'm boxing in there with you why. At your home? Why do you have to close the door? Well, I mean, if I've, if I got to go. She's going to get in. And you don't want her to get in trouble. Like get in something. She can do something to hurt herself really fast if I'm not watching her.

Yeah. But why do you. Are there other people at your house? If I'm home alone, like if I'm watching her and it's just me. You can't let her run wild through the house. Right. But why do you have to close the bathroom door? To keep her in there with me.

If I'm using the bathroom. She'll just run and go pull stuff up. Oh. I was picturing her in like a, I guess your kid's older now, huh? She runs around everywhere. Yeah. Your kid's up and at them, huh? Yeah.

All right. My bad. She gets to it real fast. I was picturing her in the carrying thing. Like just dropping them off in there. You can just leave the door open. I used to do the bouncer and she would just bounce there yeah watch you that's kind of hard too like could you look that way just for a second yeah spin around so anyway uh helix mattress helix mattress thanks

I'm assuming Dusty's going to homeschool.

private school and Nate's daughters in public school. I'm assuming Dusty's going to homeschool. Is that what he's little Hannah's going to do? I don't know. I'm kind of joking, but I'm joking, but I bet there's a good chance. Dusty's going to have his own curriculum.

Yeah. Yeah. I don't think the government's going to be involved. Yeah. They have their own thing, but you went to public school and you went to private school so y'all know the advantages and disadvantages of both i had a foreign language at joe burns the little man that taught i realize now that smell was jack daniels and um but so i didn't have that i feel like math my basketball coach was my math teacher and and he was a wonderful teacher but he would rather me play ball yeah and um then i don't know i just

felt like i was behind and i didn't have it wasn't a school where you you know you had chemistry like two people took chemistry it we just didn't have a lot of college prep and then i got to ut and i felt very behind and i went to god put me with a bunch of girls that had gone to gps and they were testing out of everything and everything was easy what's gps for them uh girls preparatory school in chenuga okay and some memphis girls um that were so smart and i don't know I just always felt intimidated. And it was hard for me to get through UT. And I quit.

And then I went back. And I finished. And I'm thankful for that. But I just never wanted my children to feel like that. And it was more. And also, by then, I wanted them to go to a Christian school. But Charlie went to a public school that was wonderful in San Antonio for first grade. But at the time, they were growing so fast out there that they said he'll have to go to another school.

We were going to be there three years. He'd have to go to three different schools. He'd have to get on a bus at six o'clock to be bussed across town. And Chuck said, we can't put him through that. Let's go in and put him in a, and find a school for him. And there, there's a lot of church schools. And there was San Antonio Christian where David Robinson from the Spurs, his babies went there.

Yeah. And, and I loved it. And I, and so they went there when they were a little bitty and then we moved to Knoxville and Chuck the whole time. I mean, he went to a public school and was very smart very academic felt good about school got an MBA made straight A's so I he didn't feel that like I did I felt like I didn't get what I needed he felt like he was fine but then anyway we put him in Christian Academy of Knoxville and felt it was a family. And they had sports, but there was discipline.

Nothing crazy. But I mean, I felt like if they had been bullied or whatever, they took care of it. I don't know. I just felt like that was what was right for us. Your son took them out. Yeah. Takes them out in the woods. Never to be seen again.

Yeah. I know that did sound weird, didn't it? No. But anyway, that's what we decided. And I always felt like, you know, I'd pray about it. And I just felt like that's where God wanted them. Yeah. But we, in Knoxville, I mean, we have wonderful public schools and the kids do great there.

But also, I have one that has learning disabilities and they found it quickly in private school. And they said if she had gone to public school, they may not have found it so quickly. But, and it was hard. It was hard for her to go to school where she did, but it kind of, you know, helped her. I mean, they gave her help, but she rose to the occasion, you know, instead of kind of getting lost. Right. So that's what we did but and we feel you know i don't know what my boy is going to do with because it's so hard for young people to pay for

something like that now i don't know what they're going to do about um their babies but they want to put them in public school and they want to do that but they'll see i think they're worried about middle because you know middle can get to be a jungle you know what i'm saying yeah that's what we were yeah but you know they get their friends and it's hard to do that i was all public till because our high school was i was the high school i went to mcgavick or hunters lane they were pretty rough schools when i was going back there. So then that's my dad got a job at my high school, Donaldson Christian. And so that's why we were able to go there. It's because he got a job there, so we got, you know. Tuition.

Yeah, it was like cheaper and like all that. And I loved my high school. I loved Donaldson Christian Academy. They're a school in Donaldson. They're still, I mean, I just, it was not a big, it's not a high school. I loved Donaldson Christian Academy. They're a school in Donaldson. They're still – I mean, I just – it's not a big school. It's like 1,000 kids, and it's K through 12. I just went there from ninth, just high school. But, I mean, I loved it.

I still talk to all these people. I'm a giant fan of uh that and and uh i wouldn't mind if har i would have liked harper to go there we we don't live on that side of town now like but i i would have she would have went there if we were over there because i just liked it so much i like the idea of being staying one school and i was kind of in the same school the whole time because we was it was just either at first it looked great i was in the goldsville then it was cooper town for a couple years and then there's dupont elementary dupont hadley and then uh so on but i remember joe burns i was like the name joe burns yeah and we played all we played harpeth hall we played university school we beat the fire out of

them y'all the red devils red devils red devils and it was sweet like we didn't know what marijuana was you know i was very it was sweet back then where you didn't have a lot of we didn't know what tobacco we all grew tobacco yeah but um and my high school boyfriend was the school representative at the university of tennessee yeah that was a big job kept him busy at ut yeah um but um but yeah it was sweet but it just wasn't college prep and then and i wanted to go to a big school and and i felt lost and i was but i was also you know not doing things i should have been doing i was making out with people i don't mean to make you uncomfortable because i've been washed in the blood and I'm okay now. But I was not prepared for that.

And I think that that made me even make more bad decisions because I felt lost. And what am I going to do? And all these people were passing me by. And I remember sitting in the laundry room going, what are they talking about? Is anybody going to make an omelet? Does anybody need me to sew? So I just had that. I anybody need me to sew? Yeah. So I just had that.

I projected that on to my little children and I didn't want them to go through one. And Chuck thought I was crazy because he didn't have that same experience. Yeah. I mean, I feel like for me, you talk about this in your act, you've got one child. So you're going to, you know, let her sleep in the bed longer because you want to experience it longer. I feel the same way. I mean, does every little thing, I don't, I mean, obviously I don't want her to get behind, but I try to just, I don't want her to rush through life either. Cause I got one shot with this.

So her crawling phase, I try to take it in as long as possible. Cause it's really cute. And now she's running and, and, but you know, as long as she's not behind developmentally i'm fine with her taking her time with whatever it is she does because this would be the only time for sure yeah and we just had a girl because we wanted somebody to take care of us she'll let you know when you need to get a flint shot yeah yeah she will and she does does. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we're at 205, so we can stop. Yeah. All right.
