you know I've got any boo inmy life. We call him Steak Daddy
because he made me my first steakin ten years. I was a vegetarian,
decided to eat steak. Now Ihave it once a week. He
took you off that pass. SteakDaddy, you're the greatest. His birthday

(07:16):
is coming up. Oh okay,this is great at the end of October.
His favorite flavor cake is red velvetcake. Mine too, mine too.
And my grandmother has this hundred yearold recipe that has been in our
family for years. It was likemy granddad's great great grandmother's recipe, so
probably a two hundred year old redvelvet cake recipe. At this point,

(07:38):
you make it from scratch, likeyou gotta go get all the things,
and Mayma makes it for me twicea year for my birthday and for Christmas
every year. Real good. SoI was telling like I about it,
and I said, I'm gonna bakeyou this cake for your birthday. He
goes, Okay. So I pullout the recipe this weekend and I'm looking

(07:59):
at it. Era. Oh,and to preface this, I am a
vegetarian. I like all organic.I get like the non dairy milk,
like the weird stuff. Well Iwas for ten, yes, but I
still eat weird hippie food. Okay, that's why you just said you're not
gonna taste any of my weird hippiefood. I love, like ali avocado
toast all day. I don't care. And so anyway, I'm trying to

(08:20):
bake this cake and I'm looking atthe recipe. I haven't even tried to
bake it yet. It's not untilOctober. I don't know what half of
the ingredients are. I don't bake. What's the difference in cake flour?
I was sitting there reading it outloud to him. I was going,
cake flour, what's cake flour.Then you've got to get shortening. It
takes four sticks of butters. Youmake the icing from scratch. And he

(08:43):
goes, why don't you call yourgrandmother and see if she'll let you go
over there and make it practice cake? Yeah? Yeah, let you just
go to Walmart. I go toEggers and get something. No, because
I told him I was gonna bakethis cake and it's the most delicious cake
ever. I've baked it one timeten years ago and I don't remember how
I did it. Then, whyare you failing now at this? Then?

(09:05):
So I've got to make a practicecake, that's the problem. So
it's birthdays in October and I wantit to be perfect by then. So
we got paid today. I'm goingto go to the grocery store after the
show, get all the ingredients,and this weekend I'm going to make the
first practice cake. If you feelat this is your relationship on the line,
No, I just now. Iam determined to make this the best

(09:28):
damn cake I've ever made. Andyou want me to be your practice dovey,
I'm gonna make it, and Ineed you to taste it next week
when we come back to work andI want you to tell me if it's
good or not. Does it comewith a bonus at least have some candy.
If I'm want to say, nowit's cake, you'll like it.
I will get it right. Ican cook. I made chicken the other
day. I don't even eat chicken. Do hippies know how to cook?

(09:50):
Yes, I'm not a hippie.I mean I'm kind of a hippie.
You are a hippie. I cando this. It's simple directions for it
takes two days to make this cakelike cake because the way mama does it,
you bake the cake first, whichyou get all the ingredients like two
sticks about her, all this stuff, and then you bake the cake.

(10:11):
Then she puts it in the freezerovernight so that it cools off and it's
hardened, and then you make theicing from scratch, and then you ice
the cake while the cake is calling. Then you thought, I might as
well get you a pig and letthe pig try You know, you have
a farm. Let your animals tryit, get somebody else to try it.
But me put my life on theline for a damn cake. Call

(10:33):

weekend, and Eera, you're goingto try it next week? Okay,

(11:18):
Kelly, good morning. Yes,I made a red velvet cake from scratch
actually for my sister. And yes, it is a long process and cooking
and baking are completely different. Youhave to make sure you measure exactly for
baking. My god, so wasthe cake good? The first one turned
out not so good because they usedthe wrong flour because you've got to use

(11:41):
flower you can't use regular flour.What the hell is cake flour? See?
The thing is with self rising flour, it already has something that makes
it rise. So it came outreally salty. Does it really take two
days to make a cake though?Yeah, yep it does. If you
watch the baking shows, they makethe bakes the cakes ahead of time,

(12:01):
and then they put him in thefreezer. They take him out and decorate
him. Yeah, I'm going toEggers. I'm sorry. Y'all can have
it. Oh, I love you, killing I'll come. I'll come taste
it for you, Alabama, thanksfor calling the show. All right,
Love you guys, Love you.Good morning? Who's this? Good morning?

somebody? I'm not a big baker. I cook, but I'm not a

(12:24):
big baker. But I gotta giveAir a hard time. Your nickname for
him, he is now Sprinkle.And here's what sprinkle. I'm calling you
sprinkles because if somebody gives you adonut, are you ask him where the
sprinkles? You take free stuff worsethan anybody I've ever met a look,

telling you she's offering you free cake. Are you say? Yeah? It's
gonna be great? Love ya,thank you. What the hell? It's
what the hell headlines on the AlabamaShaw. A man got a dui for

(13:13):
driving a power wheel jeep white.Kind of hell? Is this possible?
Power wheels? You know where it'slike normally for kids. I used to
have several of these cars. Fiftyone year old Indiana man driving a power
wheels jeep down the road with nolights or reflectors. So a trooper,
a state trooper pulled him over,saying he was difficult to see. He

(13:35):
also noted that the guy was drunk. Did some sobriety tests, found out
he was drunk. They also foundmeth and marijuana on him, so he
was taking to jail. I canunderstand of taking a jail part off the
drugs, like the hardcore drugs,but being drunk, not driving a car
that goes with five miles per hour. It's not even a car and you're

(13:56):
driving it in the middle of theround. It's a it's a charge stop
car battery operating. It's a safetyhazard. Okay. Why you were listening
