Speaker 1 (00:01):
Given the states of our roads, I'm actually really impressed
Alabama ranks low on terrible road conditions in the United States.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
I kind of thought, just because so many people love
to talk about it, that it would come in a
lot worse.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Some of the worst roads are New Mexico, Hawaii, Connecticut, Maryland, California,
and Oklahoma. Some of the best roads are Indiana, Kansas,
South Dakota. Well nobody drives on those.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
That's like, who has verified this list?
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Has somebody truly visited all fifty states and verified this because.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
I don't know about it.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Alabama was number ten, which was great, So I'm appreciated that.
Because if you drive around Birmingham, the potholes will swallow
up your car. In Huntsville, there was so much traffic
that was happening downtown. It was like manning Low that
area over by publics in the VBC. Yeah yeah, yeah,
they were doing like crazy traffic there and I remember
driving through thinking to myself, God, I wish they would
(01:10):
just fix this traffic. But the potholes aren't that bad
in Huntsville, but in Birmingham they will swallow your car.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
I think that it's just I mean, it's wild to
me because.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
You sit here and you think, like, we have it
so bad, but like this list is saying that.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
We're actually not doing two horrible.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
So I can't imagine pin number forty eight, forty nine
to fifty what their roads are like.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
But is there something that really drives you nuts when
you see it on the road, Like, for whatever reason,
I hate potholes. When I see a pothole, I freak
out about it, Like you must be that I'm just
getting older, but I'm always like, I just can't stand
how bad these potholes are. And when I see them
patch them. Now they're patching like ninety percent of it
and they leave ten percent, Like I don't know if
it's uh, it will come back and fix that, or
(01:53):
if it's just a way for them to extend the
pothole out have no idea why my thing is.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
More not necesscessarily like the roads themselves. But when you
mentioned traffic, nothing makes me more angry than when we're
slowing down and I'm like, oh, okay, something must be
going on a wreck or something like that, And I
always in that moment, I genuinely try to think if
it's a wreck, somebody's having a worse day than me, Like,
(02:20):
try to calm down. But when I am going up there,
I expect to say something and when I say nothing,
and I'm like, but why did we slow down? And
it makes me so mad? And even Steve is like,
you're mad that somebody didn't yes hurt and I'm like,
you know what, actually kind of yes? Like and I
(02:40):
know that's messed up, but if we're gonna slow down,
I need to be given some type of entertainment value.
And whether that be right or wrong, everybody feels this way,
So don't make me out to be the bad guy
with this.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
But it's like, don't do that.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Just know, if you guys are in an accident today
and somebody drives by really slow and goes, hey, you
can't park there, that's probably blame, adding insult, injury, giving
you all the warm fuzzies and whatnot, it's the good good.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
On The Spencer Grave Show.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
It was about a year ago when Diana Morales pulled
up to a man's front yard to pick him up.
She knew nothing about the person that was jumping into
her uber but that's when a ninety two year old
using a walker came out to her car. Diana certainly
got him into the vehicle and off they went. She
ended up driving him to church that day. They had
(03:33):
a great conversation on the way to church. The two
ended up training numbers, and now she's become his personal driver.
Whenever he needs weekly errands, she picks him up, whenever
he has to go to church, she picks him up.
Initially he was paying her direct, but now she didn't
even charge him anymore. She just likes spending the time
(03:53):
with him.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
I love this so much.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
And again, when you hear stories like this, it kind
of just makes you feel like, Okay.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
There's still good people out there.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
There's still people with good intentions out there, and I
think we all need that reminder after the last several weeks.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
So when I was going to Philadelphia, I was staying
in a hotel and I was meeting up with my
friends and they met me over at the hotel. When
we were walking down to go to the elevator, there
was I would assume it's a husband and wife, but
it was a couple. There was a couple who walked
out of their room right in front of us, and
the guy was dressed to the nines.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
He's in the army. It was the army dress blues.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
He had the sword, so obviously they were going somewhere
really nice. His girlfriend, wife fiance whoever, she was killing it.
She was doing this black dress of favor, like she
looked amazing in this. So all I said was, oh,
that's embarrassing. I was gonna wear the same thing. And
(04:56):
they all start laughing, like everybody around starts laughing because
they think that I'm going to say the guy with
the sword, and I said, but I decided to change
because I didn't think I looked as good as you
do in that dress.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Lesson.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I thought it was a top ten joke. That was
a good one.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
I don't know how my husband would take that deep
of a compliment right in front of him.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
No way, Yeah, no, I don't know that Steve would
necessarily appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
The guy did. He turned to me and he was like,
she's killing it in she and I was like, dude,
ten out of ten, like great job.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
But like I would feel the same exact way if
somebody complimented Steve to that extent in front of me,
I'd be like, back off.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
You would think that if somebody complimented Steve for a
suit that he was wearing.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Yeah, and I'd be keeping my eyes on that girl.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
That never even that never even crossed my mind.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
I think it's one thing to be like very complimentary're like, hey,
you look really nice, but like to go to that extent,
I know, I wouldn't want a woman saying that about
my husband.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
I would I would probably be going to jail later
that night.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I mean, I didn't say anything like you know, your
dairy air looks amazing or damn girl, that booty, Like
I didn't say anything, well, but.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
You said like you're doing that that dress a favorite, Like,
oh no, Steve would be like I'm be doing you
a favor.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Knock you out later.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
None of us in the entire group, none of us
took it that way.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
That's why, like, and I think it just depends too,
because I think that I'm at a point where like,
if somebody in our group said something like that, Steve
be like that's right, like she's mon, or I'd be like, yep,
he's mon.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
A stranger.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
I'd be like, you're taking away too much notice of
me right now, and I am uncomfortable. And my reaction
would be let me get aggressive.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
I think Blair is entering into a new phase in life.
She has gone from you know, I'm recently married, we're
six years in to now itching for a fight.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Like I'm like, some tell me any I will fight
for this man?
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Have you seen that TikTok trend where it's been going
on for literally years? But it's like how I used
to say, I'll never fight for a man or anything
like this.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
But the way that I would drop kick somebody.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
That's you right now? You are all you're looking for
is you're like, I wish somebody would say something really
nice about my husband.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
I've been working out, I've been lipping the weights and
I'm ready to go.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
So if somebody actually said around your significant other that
they were doing that outfit, that dress, that suit a favor,
would you take that like Blair, where you're gonna throw down,
or would you just take it as a compliment and
roll on a five?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Five grave zero? Brandon? What's up, Bud?
Speaker 5 (07:42):
Hey? I was just responding, Uh, the compliment we're just having.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
I know, Blair's so fired up this morning, one to
fight everybody.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
I'm like, blairite, you, I get it.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
Look so I guess it depends on how the compliment
is presented there over the top, then yeah, it gets
you a little fired up.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But if somebody just saw and was making an obvious joke,
but they threw a compliment in there at the same time,
that's pretty passive.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
I don't know about that, because like that's the that's
like an entry way to see what the reaction is
going to be. Uh, to the person that they're complimenting.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
If Spencer, who you've never met before, says, man, you're
doing that dress of favor, be honest, how would how
would you respond?
Speaker 5 (08:29):
Oh, that's tough one. Spencer's a big old dude.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
See, I ain't scared. I'm throwing hands. I ain't scared
of Spencer.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
True, Blair is like a spider monkey and you should
come at it. And look the guy that I said
this in front of. He was much smaller than me.
But I'm not trying to be an imposing figure. I
just thought to myself, she did that dress a favor
that was just nothing but a pile of cloth, and
then she puts it on and that was perfect.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Hey, Spencer, you're making it worse the more you talk
about it. It's one thing to say, Oh you look nice?
Do you guys look nice? And that that may be
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I was plaiting a joke because I said I was
gonna wear the same thing.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Yeah, but but.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
You're doing that dress of favor. Say so, it's a
good joke.
Speaker 5 (09:16):
Yes, I'm gonna tell you that. Uh, I kind of
get a bandit if my wife doesn't, you know, want
to throw hands sometimes, you know, at one of.
Speaker 6 (09:24):
Those things.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
You don't want to fight for.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
This seems probably like, don't encourage.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
I'm rather attractive to have somebody want to fight over me.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
I'm over here like ready to throw down, and seems like,
calm down.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
That's so good.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
All right, listen, you have an awesome day today, Bud.
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Yeah. And I thought that I was just giving a
compliment where I said this young woman was doing that
dress of favor.
Speaker 7 (09:52):
Yeah, so I'm new to your show.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
Are you married?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
No?
Speaker 7 (09:57):
Okay, see, if you're married, I don't think it's bad
to give a woman a compliment. But I've had my
husband been called, you know, looking too good, specifically in
front of me before, and there are times where I'm
just like her and I want to square up.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
It's like, do you not like, let's go, let's go.
Speaker 7 (10:14):
I'm right here, honey, like I am. I swear I've
got more muscle on me than you do. Honey. It's
been from both sides of the party. You know, it's
not just been woman. My husband has had some you
know men as well.
Speaker 8 (10:30):
You know.
Speaker 7 (10:31):
Text my other friend. We were at a wedding for
our best friend and one of her guests was a
gentleman who was interested in and was like, Hey, who's
that Q guy on the on the groom side of
the party. And it's like, I've kind of like both sides,
are you serious? Like old on, give me a break.
(10:55):
So my husband has gotten quite the compliments before, and.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
It is I am fighting on both sides.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
I'm tired, okay ay to tell her husband like, when
we get home, you change that face? Ears, you changed
that lookiars because I can't have you looking good when
we go out.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
She's like, I'm gonna have to be you so you
have bruises.
Speaker 7 (11:17):
I'm gonna look off. I'm gonna look like the worst
spouse ever. It's like, how dare you be so good looking?
I felt love with you for more than that. Dang it, but.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Still, Amanda, thanks so much. And h earlier you said
that you were new to our show. Who were you
listening to? What were you doing before?
Speaker 7 (11:33):
I just turned on the radio and I was just
listening for good music, and then I heard y'all talking.
But I just heard it. I was like, I've never
called it. I'm going to call it because this relates
so hard.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Well, love, I'm glad I found a friend.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
And thank you by the way for listening. And wherever
you came from, whoever you're listening to before, we appreciate you.
You can call us and stay in touch with us anytime.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
All right, sounds great, Charles, what's up, Bud?
Speaker 6 (11:57):
Just a comment on what you're talking about. If he
was ready to throw hands because someone compliments your spouse,
maybe that's not a bad thing. You got to know
who they're coming home to, and to me, that would
show jealousy and insecurity.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
So you're saying Blair wanting to fight people for complimenting
her husband shows that she's jealous and insecure.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
No, well not exactly, but I mean you can say
he's ready to punch somebody. That means you're either jealous
or insecure, you know, you got to know who's coming
home to it or not, so it shouldn't matter. You
should feel good that people compliment me. That's what That's
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
If somebody comes up and recognizes that your spouse is attractive,
but they don't say anything else, like they're not actively
trying to steal that person away from you.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
I think it's important to here to note that it's
not that you just said, oh you look nice. You
said the exact words, and I quote you're doing that
dress of favor.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
True that dress until you put that on.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
I think there's a line and like that would be
too much for me.
Speaker 6 (13:06):
Really, I would appreciate this. Somebody said my spouse was.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Hot or something.
Speaker 6 (13:10):
There we go come on to them, lit, I know
who you come home to.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
So you're like, that's right, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
That's what I'm saying. Like it might be it might
be a man woman thing. Guys hear their wife get
complimented or their girlfriend get complimented.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
And they're like dang, right, and then as women were.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Like s and y'all are like, why aren't you complimenting me?
You're complimenting my husband, you should be complimenting me.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
I'm I'm not asking. I'm not asking for the compliments
to come on later. I'm good, I'm really I'm good.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Hands with you, Thank you, buddy, Appreciate you you. Star
Wars is back. We recently had Ed, whose wife shared
with us he sounds like the lion from the Lion
King doing his absolute best at waking up. Well, there's
(14:05):
a new.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Challenger, Blair, Oh is there now?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
This is Terry.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Terry's wife says he sounds like a medium sized bear
getting ready to get into position to take that long
winter nap.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Honestly, I understand now why divorce attorneys have been so busy.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
I could not handle this.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
So during snore Wars, we ask you if you could
tell us the one you would not want to sleep
next to? Is it this? Or is it the challenger? Terry?
(14:58):
Eight five grave zero? I'll share it with us now, Rebecca,
let's talk about snore Wars.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
We had Ed.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
He is the current champion, but Terry came in as
a challenger. Which one would you have a hard time
sleeping next to?
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (15:22):
Ed has got to go.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
That That sound released so many emotions that I don't
There's no way I'd be able to sleep in the
same room with that.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
And where do those emotions?
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Have a sock shoved in his mouth?
Speaker 8 (15:39):
Set down inside?
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Like, there is no way you're prepared.
Speaker 8 (15:45):
Yes, like he would absolutely have a sock shoved in
his mouth, probably be holding his nose at the same time,
because I may or may not have held my husband's
nose when he starts to snore.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Wow, I get it.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
I think that's attempted murder, to be honest, coming from
somebody who wears the sea pappal.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Thank you very.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
Much, my bad, my dad, We didn't mean it.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Let's get over to Felicia this morning. Have a great day. Okay,
thank you.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
By Felicia is on a five to five Graves zero.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
You want me to play him for you again?
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Of course you do. This is Ed.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
And this is Terry on this episode of snore Wars.
Which one would you have a hard time waking up
next to?
Speaker 8 (16:29):
Yeah, Terry with the tea would have to be sleeping outside.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Why Terry with the t Because I actually thought about this.
I think it's that long drug out snore rather than Ed,
who is kind of quick.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
Yeah, I mean neither one of them, but Terry would
definitely have to be sleeping outside the ball. There's no
way you'dn't even sleep in the bedroom and him be
on the couch at this point because you'd still be
able to hear that.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
It's shaking the wall.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
Passion.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
Yeah, that's pretty bad.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Thank you, have a wonderful day. Okay, you too, Christina?
What's going on? Not too much? How are you gonna
do it? Good? Were you calling for snore wars? Because
we actually need somebody to make the decision.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Sure, here's Ed.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Ed's wife says that he sounds like the lion king.
And then we have Terry who's challenging today, whose wife
says he sounds like a bear that's getting ready to hibernate.
So which one would you have a hard time sleeping
next to? On snore wars?
Speaker 6 (17:39):
Definitely Terry.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Wow, ladies and gentlemen, what will you have?
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Where will Terry be? Is he being sent to the couch?
Is he being sent outside?
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Outside? That is awful? Sleep outside in the middle of January?
Speaker 4 (17:56):
You know, I mean problem, not a US problem.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
By the way, guys, listen, if this is you, if
you snore like this, I'm urging you go get checked
out and get a sea path. That things are life saver.
Speaker 8 (18:07):
Absolutely, that's something I probably could not deal with.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
We would definitely go we would definitely going to the doctor.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Well, let's give it a round of louse for Terry.
Terry has dethroned ed ed made it one day as
the champ. Now Terry will take on a new challenger
tomorrow on snore Wars. So if you want to get
us the video of your significant other sleeping or the
audio of it, just send it to us in our
direct messages on the Spencer Grave Show, Facebook or Instagram.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
It's How country are You? On the Spencer Grave Show.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
So this is how country are you? Angie? What town
are you from?
Speaker 8 (18:41):
I'm from Good Springs, Alabama?
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Great, that's really good Springs to hear. All right. On
a scale of one to country, how country are you seven?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
I love how she's confident in her answer. She didn't
have to think.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
So we're gonna ask you three questions and then we'll
give you a score at the end.
Speaker 6 (18:56):
You're ready, I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
CUSI cotton makes whatsa cotton?
Speaker 5 (19:03):
I would say underwear.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I don't know if they make underwear, but they definitely
make apparel, so like shirts, hats, things like that.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Maybe we need. Maybe they who knows underwear.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Maybe cotton does make some tidy whities.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
We don't know, all right.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Second question, share with us a few things that make
you think about church when you were a kid. Oh,
somebody's really tickled in the back.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Yes see you.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
So, what are a few things that make you think
about church when you were a kid?
Speaker 6 (19:37):
Sing?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Uh huh?
Speaker 6 (19:39):
Preaching?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Yeah, I always think about the hard candies that somebody
tried to put in a wrapper and then they left
it in the pew and it's been there for a
couple of weeks, a couple like a couple of months.
Speaker 6 (19:53):
Say some more about the the Jews.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
But okay, all right, the body and blood, I totally understand.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
All right, here's the last one. How do you say
hi to others.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
When you're driving?
Speaker 8 (20:05):
But oh when I'm driving?
Speaker 1 (20:07):
M hm, you're a hornblower. You're not the two finger
wave off the sneerwheel.
Speaker 5 (20:16):
Oh no, no, no, no, you just learned.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Y'all you said to yourself was a seven. Listen, cousa cotton,
We're gonna have to really figure out if they make
underwear or not. But based on those scores, you're a
six point nine today.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
Perfect Blair.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
You popped up on my mind yesterday when I was
having dinner with a friend of mine who's an extremely
inspirational guy. He's in town for a big fishing tournament.
The National Professional Fishing League, the NPFL is coming to
Logan Morton and they're gonna start fishing on Thursday. His
name's Hunter Bogman. And what's wild about Hunter is when
he was nine months old, and this is why I
(20:54):
thought about you, he contracted bacterial meningitis. I remember your
dad was saying that you had menergitis your baby.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Yeah, bacterial and viral at the same time.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
So when he was nine months old, he found out
that he had bacterial meningitis. His mom rushes him to
the hospital. He stopped breathing on the way. It's a
crazy story, but as his life has gone on since
he was nine months old, he had to have both
his legs amputated, one hand completely taken off, and then
his other hand he lost several fingers, which caused some
(21:25):
pretty big damage. Anyway, so now he's going after his
dream of being a professional fisherman. Fisherman no legs and
barely one hand.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
I love this and I'm glad that you share this
because so many people it's wild that when I tell
people that I had meningitis as a baby, people don't
necessarily believe it because I am. I think it's like
in all seriess, like point zero one percent of people
that contract meningitis, no matter what form it is, lived
(21:59):
with some type of severe whether it be a disability
of you know, any kind, blindness, deafness, loss of limbs,
things like that. Now this is back kind of like
I'm not sure how old your friend is, but kind
of when we were younger and people were contracting it.
They've they've really advanced in that space.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
He's around the same age as us. He's thirty eight.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Yeah, so you know, they've really advanced in that area,
and they're learning more about how they can treat it
and you know, prevent things like this. But I think
it's absolutely incredible that he's not letting this stop him,
because I mean, you know, there are times that I've
felt guilty for having that as a child and not
having you know, a serious side effect or disability that
(22:40):
I have to live with with the rest of my life.
I love that he's like, Okay, I might have this
disability on paper, but I'm still going to be able
to continue to do what I love it and reach
for my dreams. So like, kudos to him, and I'll
be pulling for him.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
His family is incredible. So last night we sat down
to dinner and it was his wife, his two daughters,
and his wife is acting baby number three another girl.
I was like, man, were you trying for a boy?
He's like, yeah, I don't know if we're going to
get one. But what made me kind of just really
well up with pride that my buddy does so well
in fishing is we were sitting there. He's in a
(23:15):
place that he's not from. He's from Arkansas, and this
young kid, I mean he probably was thirteen fourteen years old.
He comes over and he goes, mister Hunter, I just
want to say good luck this week. And he's like,
how does that kid know who I am? I go, dude,
you're a pretty big name in the fishing industry given
what you've gone through in your life. But he is
a great representation of nothing holds you back. The only
(23:39):
thing that holds you back in this world is your
ability to take that first step towards your dream. I
think all of us would be ticked off if we
showed up to a concert that actually wasn't a concert
at all and only the recording of a podcast.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
Wait, what do you mean? Who did this?
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Casey Muskgraves announced that she was going to be a
part of Sing for Science. Sing for Sciences a podcast
but they get a lot of singers and people in
the music industry to jump on and talk about different
scientific things. And they were hosting this at the Ryman
Auditorium so people could buy tickets to go witness this,
so they thought they were seeing Casey Musgraves sing for Science.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
I feel like this is not her fault, Like I
feel like you probably should have done some research.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
I don't know, I just this can't fall back on her.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
The best part is the science aspect was how psychedelic
mushrooms has changed Casey's life.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
Very important, you know, very important. I'm glad that she
was able to be a part of this event. No like,
but in all seriousness, I've heard of people doing this before,
but it's always come back to like you're assuming something
you know, like whether it be I remember this has
been months ago. But Taylor Swift up at like a
(25:01):
big writers author's thing, in New York City, and of
course the Swifties sold it out, and they were thinking
that they were getting this private acoustics show and she
got up there and just like spoke about songwriting and
things like that, and they were all disappointed.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
I'm like, like, look at the event, Like.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Travis Kelce, her now fiance, held a party in Nashville
with a bunch of football players and who ended up
performing out of the blue that no one thought was
going to happen.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
But there was music being played at that event, like
it was a concert. You just didn't know about Taylor Swift.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Well either way.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
There was a woman named Faith Hopkins who bought tickets
to see Casey Musgraves and she goes, yeah, I didn't
get to hear any music, and I only heard a
lot of big words that I don't really understand.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
She was like, what, how did this happen? How did
we get here?
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Kimmel's coming back to Late Night tonight.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Well, I won't be watching.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
I honestly think that there's going to be a lot
of people who tune in just to see what he says.
But then and it's going to go back to the
same old, same old, and the outcome I think is
still going to be the same if they say everything
was true about when his contract is up. He doesn't
have that many months left.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
I am going to choose to not support in any capacity.
Given the states of our roads, I'm actually really impressed
Alabama ranks low on terrible road conditions in the United States.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
I kind of thought, just because so many people love
to talk about it, that it would come in a
lot worse.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Some of the worst roads are New Mexico, Hawaii, Connecticut, Maryland, California,
and Oklahoma. Some of the best roads are Indiana, Kansas,
South Dakota. Well nobody drives on those.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
That's like, who has verified this list?
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Has somebody truly visited all fifty states and verified this because.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
I don't know about it.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Alabama was number ten, which was great, So I'm appreciated that.
Because if you drive around Birmingham, the potholes will swallow
up your car. In Huntsville, there was so much traffic
that was happening downtown. It was like manning Low that
area over by publics in the VBC. Yeah yeah, yeah,
they were doing like crazy traffic there and I remember
driving through thinking to myself, God, I wish they would
(01:10):
just fix this traffic. But the potholes aren't that bad
in Huntsville, but in Birmingham they will swallow your car.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
I think that it's just I mean, it's wild to
me because.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
You sit here and you think, like, we have it
so bad, but like this list is saying that.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
We're actually not doing two horrible.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
So I can't imagine pin number forty eight, forty nine
to fifty what their roads are like.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
But is there something that really drives you nuts when
you see it on the road, Like, for whatever reason,
I hate potholes. When I see a pothole, I freak
out about it, Like you must be that I'm just
getting older, but I'm always like, I just can't stand
how bad these potholes are. And when I see them
patch them. Now they're patching like ninety percent of it
and they leave ten percent, Like I don't know if
it's uh, it will come back and fix that, or
(01:53):
if it's just a way for them to extend the
pothole out have no idea why my thing is.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
More not necesscessarily like the roads themselves. But when you
mentioned traffic, nothing makes me more angry than when we're
slowing down and I'm like, oh, okay, something must be
going on a wreck or something like that, And I
always in that moment, I genuinely try to think if
it's a wreck, somebody's having a worse day than me, Like,
(02:20):
try to calm down. But when I am going up there,
I expect to say something and when I say nothing,
and I'm like, but why did we slow down? And
it makes me so mad? And even Steve is like,
you're mad that somebody didn't yes hurt and I'm like,
you know what, actually kind of yes? Like and I
(02:40):
know that's messed up, but if we're gonna slow down,
I need to be given some type of entertainment value.
And whether that be right or wrong, everybody feels this way,
So don't make me out to be the bad guy
with this.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
But it's like, don't do that.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Just know, if you guys are in an accident today
and somebody drives by really slow and goes, hey, you
can't park there, that's probably blame, adding insult, injury, giving
you all the warm fuzzies and whatnot, it's the good good.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
On The Spencer Grave Show.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
It was about a year ago when Diana Morales pulled
up to a man's front yard to pick him up.
She knew nothing about the person that was jumping into
her uber but that's when a ninety two year old
using a walker came out to her car. Diana certainly
got him into the vehicle and off they went. She
ended up driving him to church that day. They had
(03:33):
a great conversation on the way to church. The two
ended up training numbers, and now she's become his personal driver.
Whenever he needs weekly errands, she picks him up, whenever
he has to go to church, she picks him up.
Initially he was paying her direct, but now she didn't
even charge him anymore. She just likes spending the time
(03:53):
with him.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
I love this so much.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
And again, when you hear stories like this, it kind
of just makes you feel like, Okay.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
There's still good people out there.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
There's still people with good intentions out there, and I
think we all need that reminder after the last several weeks.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
So when I was going to Philadelphia, I was staying
in a hotel and I was meeting up with my
friends and they met me over at the hotel. When
we were walking down to go to the elevator, there
was I would assume it's a husband and wife, but
it was a couple. There was a couple who walked
out of their room right in front of us, and
the guy was dressed to the nines.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
He's in the army. It was the army dress blues.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
He had the sword, so obviously they were going somewhere
really nice. His girlfriend, wife fiance whoever, she was killing it.
She was doing this black dress of favor, like she
looked amazing in this. So all I said was, oh,
that's embarrassing. I was gonna wear the same thing. And
(04:56):
they all start laughing, like everybody around starts laughing because
they think that I'm going to say the guy with
the sword, and I said, but I decided to change
because I didn't think I looked as good as you
do in that dress.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Lesson.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I thought it was a top ten joke. That was
a good one.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
I don't know how my husband would take that deep
of a compliment right in front of him.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
No way, Yeah, no, I don't know that Steve would
necessarily appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
The guy did. He turned to me and he was like,
she's killing it in she and I was like, dude,
ten out of ten, like great job.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
But like I would feel the same exact way if
somebody complimented Steve to that extent in front of me,
I'd be like, back off.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
You would think that if somebody complimented Steve for a
suit that he was wearing.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Yeah, and I'd be keeping my eyes on that girl.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
That never even that never even crossed my mind.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
I think it's one thing to be like very complimentary're like, hey,
you look really nice, but like to go to that extent,
I know, I wouldn't want a woman saying that about
my husband.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
I would I would probably be going to jail later
that night.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I mean, I didn't say anything like you know, your
dairy air looks amazing or damn girl, that booty, Like
I didn't say anything, well, but.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
You said like you're doing that that dress a favorite, Like,
oh no, Steve would be like I'm be doing you
a favor.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Knock you out later.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
None of us in the entire group, none of us
took it that way.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
That's why, like, and I think it just depends too,
because I think that I'm at a point where like,
if somebody in our group said something like that, Steve
be like that's right, like she's mon, or I'd be like, yep,
he's mon.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
A stranger.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
I'd be like, you're taking away too much notice of
me right now, and I am uncomfortable. And my reaction
would be let me get aggressive.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
I think Blair is entering into a new phase in life.
She has gone from you know, I'm recently married, we're
six years in to now itching for a fight.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Like I'm like, some tell me any I will fight
for this man?
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Have you seen that TikTok trend where it's been going
on for literally years? But it's like how I used
to say, I'll never fight for a man or anything
like this.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
But the way that I would drop kick somebody.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
That's you right now? You are all you're looking for
is you're like, I wish somebody would say something really
nice about my husband.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
I've been working out, I've been lipping the weights and
I'm ready to go.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
So if somebody actually said around your significant other that
they were doing that outfit, that dress, that suit a favor,
would you take that like Blair, where you're gonna throw down,
or would you just take it as a compliment and
roll on a five?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Five grave zero? Brandon? What's up, Bud?
Speaker 5 (07:42):
Hey? I was just responding, Uh, the compliment we're just having.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
I know, Blair's so fired up this morning, one to
fight everybody.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
I'm like, blairite, you, I get it.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
Look so I guess it depends on how the compliment
is presented there over the top, then yeah, it gets
you a little fired up.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But if somebody just saw and was making an obvious joke,
but they threw a compliment in there at the same time,
that's pretty passive.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
I don't know about that, because like that's the that's
like an entry way to see what the reaction is
going to be. Uh, to the person that they're complimenting.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
If Spencer, who you've never met before, says, man, you're
doing that dress of favor, be honest, how would how
would you respond?
Speaker 5 (08:29):
Oh, that's tough one. Spencer's a big old dude.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
See, I ain't scared. I'm throwing hands. I ain't scared
of Spencer.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
True, Blair is like a spider monkey and you should
come at it. And look the guy that I said
this in front of. He was much smaller than me.
But I'm not trying to be an imposing figure. I
just thought to myself, she did that dress a favor
that was just nothing but a pile of cloth, and
then she puts it on and that was perfect.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Hey, Spencer, you're making it worse the more you talk
about it. It's one thing to say, Oh you look nice?
Do you guys look nice? And that that may be
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I was plaiting a joke because I said I was
gonna wear the same thing.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Yeah, but but.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
You're doing that dress of favor. Say so, it's a
good joke.
Speaker 5 (09:16):
Yes, I'm gonna tell you that. Uh, I kind of
get a bandit if my wife doesn't, you know, want
to throw hands sometimes, you know, at one of.
Speaker 6 (09:24):
Those things.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
You don't want to fight for.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
This seems probably like, don't encourage.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
I'm rather attractive to have somebody want to fight over me.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
I'm over here like ready to throw down, and seems like,
calm down.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
That's so good.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
All right, listen, you have an awesome day today, Bud.
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Yeah. And I thought that I was just giving a
compliment where I said this young woman was doing that
dress of favor.
Speaker 7 (09:52):
Yeah, so I'm new to your show.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
Are you married?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
No?
Speaker 7 (09:57):
Okay, see, if you're married, I don't think it's bad
to give a woman a compliment. But I've had my
husband been called, you know, looking too good, specifically in
front of me before, and there are times where I'm
just like her and I want to square up.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
It's like, do you not like, let's go, let's go.
Speaker 7 (10:14):
I'm right here, honey, like I am. I swear I've
got more muscle on me than you do. Honey. It's
been from both sides of the party. You know, it's
not just been woman. My husband has had some you
know men as well.
Speaker 8 (10:30):
You know.
Speaker 7 (10:31):
Text my other friend. We were at a wedding for
our best friend and one of her guests was a
gentleman who was interested in and was like, Hey, who's
that Q guy on the on the groom side of
the party. And it's like, I've kind of like both sides,
are you serious? Like old on, give me a break.
(10:55):
So my husband has gotten quite the compliments before, and.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
It is I am fighting on both sides.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
I'm tired, okay ay to tell her husband like, when
we get home, you change that face? Ears, you changed
that lookiars because I can't have you looking good when
we go out.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
She's like, I'm gonna have to be you so you
have bruises.
Speaker 7 (11:17):
I'm gonna look off. I'm gonna look like the worst
spouse ever. It's like, how dare you be so good looking?
I felt love with you for more than that. Dang it, but.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Still, Amanda, thanks so much. And h earlier you said
that you were new to our show. Who were you
listening to? What were you doing before?
Speaker 7 (11:33):
I just turned on the radio and I was just
listening for good music, and then I heard y'all talking.
But I just heard it. I was like, I've never
called it. I'm going to call it because this relates
so hard.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Well, love, I'm glad I found a friend.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
And thank you by the way for listening. And wherever
you came from, whoever you're listening to before, we appreciate you.
You can call us and stay in touch with us anytime.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
All right, sounds great, Charles, what's up, Bud?
Speaker 6 (11:57):
Just a comment on what you're talking about. If he
was ready to throw hands because someone compliments your spouse,
maybe that's not a bad thing. You got to know
who they're coming home to, and to me, that would
show jealousy and insecurity.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
So you're saying Blair wanting to fight people for complimenting
her husband shows that she's jealous and insecure.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
No, well not exactly, but I mean you can say
he's ready to punch somebody. That means you're either jealous
or insecure, you know, you got to know who's coming
home to it or not, so it shouldn't matter. You
should feel good that people compliment me. That's what That's
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
If somebody comes up and recognizes that your spouse is attractive,
but they don't say anything else, like they're not actively
trying to steal that person away from you.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
I think it's important to here to note that it's
not that you just said, oh you look nice. You
said the exact words, and I quote you're doing that
dress of favor.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
True that dress until you put that on.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
I think there's a line and like that would be
too much for me.
Speaker 6 (13:06):
Really, I would appreciate this. Somebody said my spouse was.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Hot or something.
Speaker 6 (13:10):
There we go come on to them, lit, I know
who you come home to.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
So you're like, that's right, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
That's what I'm saying. Like it might be it might
be a man woman thing. Guys hear their wife get
complimented or their girlfriend get complimented.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
And they're like dang, right, and then as women were.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Like s and y'all are like, why aren't you complimenting me?
You're complimenting my husband, you should be complimenting me.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
I'm I'm not asking. I'm not asking for the compliments
to come on later. I'm good, I'm really I'm good.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Hands with you, Thank you, buddy, Appreciate you you. Star
Wars is back. We recently had Ed, whose wife shared
with us he sounds like the lion from the Lion
King doing his absolute best at waking up. Well, there's
(14:05):
a new.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Challenger, Blair, Oh is there now?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
This is Terry.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Terry's wife says he sounds like a medium sized bear
getting ready to get into position to take that long
winter nap.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Honestly, I understand now why divorce attorneys have been so busy.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
I could not handle this.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
So during snore Wars, we ask you if you could
tell us the one you would not want to sleep
next to? Is it this? Or is it the challenger? Terry?
(14:58):
Eight five grave zero? I'll share it with us now, Rebecca,
let's talk about snore Wars.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
We had Ed.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
He is the current champion, but Terry came in as
a challenger. Which one would you have a hard time
sleeping next to?
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (15:22):
Ed has got to go.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
That That sound released so many emotions that I don't
There's no way I'd be able to sleep in the
same room with that.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
And where do those emotions?
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Have a sock shoved in his mouth?
Speaker 8 (15:39):
Set down inside?
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Like, there is no way you're prepared.
Speaker 8 (15:45):
Yes, like he would absolutely have a sock shoved in
his mouth, probably be holding his nose at the same time,
because I may or may not have held my husband's
nose when he starts to snore.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Wow, I get it.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
I think that's attempted murder, to be honest, coming from
somebody who wears the sea pappal.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Thank you very.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
Much, my bad, my dad, We didn't mean it.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Let's get over to Felicia this morning. Have a great day. Okay,
thank you.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
By Felicia is on a five to five Graves zero.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
You want me to play him for you again?
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Of course you do. This is Ed.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
And this is Terry on this episode of snore Wars.
Which one would you have a hard time waking up
next to?
Speaker 8 (16:29):
Yeah, Terry with the tea would have to be sleeping outside.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Why Terry with the t Because I actually thought about this.
I think it's that long drug out snore rather than Ed,
who is kind of quick.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
Yeah, I mean neither one of them, but Terry would
definitely have to be sleeping outside the ball. There's no
way you'dn't even sleep in the bedroom and him be
on the couch at this point because you'd still be
able to hear that.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
It's shaking the wall.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
Passion.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
Yeah, that's pretty bad.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Thank you, have a wonderful day. Okay, you too, Christina?
What's going on? Not too much? How are you gonna
do it? Good? Were you calling for snore wars? Because
we actually need somebody to make the decision.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Sure, here's Ed.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Ed's wife says that he sounds like the lion king.
And then we have Terry who's challenging today, whose wife
says he sounds like a bear that's getting ready to hibernate.
So which one would you have a hard time sleeping
next to? On snore wars?
Speaker 6 (17:39):
Definitely Terry.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Wow, ladies and gentlemen, what will you have?
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Where will Terry be? Is he being sent to the couch?
Is he being sent outside?
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Outside? That is awful? Sleep outside in the middle of January?
Speaker 4 (17:56):
You know, I mean problem, not a US problem.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
By the way, guys, listen, if this is you, if
you snore like this, I'm urging you go get checked
out and get a sea path. That things are life saver.
Speaker 8 (18:07):
Absolutely, that's something I probably could not deal with.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
We would definitely go we would definitely going to the doctor.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Well, let's give it a round of louse for Terry.
Terry has dethroned ed ed made it one day as
the champ. Now Terry will take on a new challenger
tomorrow on snore Wars. So if you want to get
us the video of your significant other sleeping or the
audio of it, just send it to us in our
direct messages on the Spencer Grave Show, Facebook or Instagram.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
It's How country are You? On the Spencer Grave Show.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
So this is how country are you? Angie? What town
are you from?
Speaker 8 (18:41):
I'm from Good Springs, Alabama?
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Great, that's really good Springs to hear. All right. On
a scale of one to country, how country are you seven?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
I love how she's confident in her answer. She didn't
have to think.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
So we're gonna ask you three questions and then we'll
give you a score at the end.
Speaker 6 (18:56):
You're ready, I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
CUSI cotton makes whatsa cotton?
Speaker 5 (19:03):
I would say underwear.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I don't know if they make underwear, but they definitely
make apparel, so like shirts, hats, things like that.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Maybe we need. Maybe they who knows underwear.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Maybe cotton does make some tidy whities.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
We don't know, all right.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Second question, share with us a few things that make
you think about church when you were a kid. Oh,
somebody's really tickled in the back.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Yes see you.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
So, what are a few things that make you think
about church when you were a kid?
Speaker 6 (19:37):
Sing?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Uh huh?
Speaker 6 (19:39):
Preaching?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Yeah, I always think about the hard candies that somebody
tried to put in a wrapper and then they left
it in the pew and it's been there for a
couple of weeks, a couple like a couple of months.
Speaker 6 (19:53):
Say some more about the the Jews.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
But okay, all right, the body and blood, I totally understand.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
All right, here's the last one. How do you say
hi to others.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
When you're driving?
Speaker 8 (20:05):
But oh when I'm driving?
Speaker 1 (20:07):
M hm, you're a hornblower. You're not the two finger
wave off the sneerwheel.
Speaker 5 (20:16):
Oh no, no, no, no, you just learned.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Y'all you said to yourself was a seven. Listen, cousa cotton,
We're gonna have to really figure out if they make
underwear or not. But based on those scores, you're a
six point nine today.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
Perfect Blair.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
You popped up on my mind yesterday when I was
having dinner with a friend of mine who's an extremely
inspirational guy. He's in town for a big fishing tournament.
The National Professional Fishing League, the NPFL is coming to
Logan Morton and they're gonna start fishing on Thursday. His
name's Hunter Bogman. And what's wild about Hunter is when
he was nine months old, and this is why I
(20:54):
thought about you, he contracted bacterial meningitis. I remember your
dad was saying that you had menergitis your baby.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Yeah, bacterial and viral at the same time.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
So when he was nine months old, he found out
that he had bacterial meningitis. His mom rushes him to
the hospital. He stopped breathing on the way. It's a
crazy story, but as his life has gone on since
he was nine months old, he had to have both
his legs amputated, one hand completely taken off, and then
his other hand he lost several fingers, which caused some
(21:25):
pretty big damage. Anyway, so now he's going after his
dream of being a professional fisherman. Fisherman no legs and
barely one hand.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
I love this and I'm glad that you share this
because so many people it's wild that when I tell
people that I had meningitis as a baby, people don't
necessarily believe it because I am. I think it's like
in all seriess, like point zero one percent of people
that contract meningitis, no matter what form it is, lived
(21:59):
with some type of severe whether it be a disability
of you know, any kind, blindness, deafness, loss of limbs,
things like that. Now this is back kind of like
I'm not sure how old your friend is, but kind
of when we were younger and people were contracting it.
They've they've really advanced in that space.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
He's around the same age as us. He's thirty eight.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Yeah, so you know, they've really advanced in that area,
and they're learning more about how they can treat it
and you know, prevent things like this. But I think
it's absolutely incredible that he's not letting this stop him,
because I mean, you know, there are times that I've
felt guilty for having that as a child and not
having you know, a serious side effect or disability that
(22:40):
I have to live with with the rest of my life.
I love that he's like, Okay, I might have this
disability on paper, but I'm still going to be able
to continue to do what I love it and reach
for my dreams. So like, kudos to him, and I'll
be pulling for him.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
His family is incredible. So last night we sat down
to dinner and it was his wife, his two daughters,
and his wife is acting baby number three another girl.
I was like, man, were you trying for a boy?
He's like, yeah, I don't know if we're going to
get one. But what made me kind of just really
well up with pride that my buddy does so well
in fishing is we were sitting there. He's in a
(23:15):
place that he's not from. He's from Arkansas, and this
young kid, I mean he probably was thirteen fourteen years old.
He comes over and he goes, mister Hunter, I just
want to say good luck this week. And he's like,
how does that kid know who I am? I go, dude,
you're a pretty big name in the fishing industry given
what you've gone through in your life. But he is
a great representation of nothing holds you back. The only
(23:39):
thing that holds you back in this world is your
ability to take that first step towards your dream. I
think all of us would be ticked off if we
showed up to a concert that actually wasn't a concert
at all and only the recording of a podcast.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
Wait, what do you mean? Who did this?
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Casey Muskgraves announced that she was going to be a
part of Sing for Science. Sing for Sciences a podcast
but they get a lot of singers and people in
the music industry to jump on and talk about different
scientific things. And they were hosting this at the Ryman
Auditorium so people could buy tickets to go witness this,
so they thought they were seeing Casey Musgraves sing for Science.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
I feel like this is not her fault, Like I
feel like you probably should have done some research.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
I don't know, I just this can't fall back on her.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
The best part is the science aspect was how psychedelic
mushrooms has changed Casey's life.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
Very important, you know, very important. I'm glad that she
was able to be a part of this event. No like,
but in all seriousness, I've heard of people doing this before,
but it's always come back to like you're assuming something
you know, like whether it be I remember this has
been months ago. But Taylor Swift up at like a
(25:01):
big writers author's thing, in New York City, and of
course the Swifties sold it out, and they were thinking
that they were getting this private acoustics show and she
got up there and just like spoke about songwriting and
things like that, and they were all disappointed.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
I'm like, like, look at the event, Like.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Travis Kelce, her now fiance, held a party in Nashville
with a bunch of football players and who ended up
performing out of the blue that no one thought was
going to happen.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
But there was music being played at that event, like
it was a concert. You just didn't know about Taylor Swift.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Well either way.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
There was a woman named Faith Hopkins who bought tickets
to see Casey Musgraves and she goes, yeah, I didn't
get to hear any music, and I only heard a
lot of big words that I don't really understand.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
She was like, what, how did this happen? How did
we get here?
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Kimmel's coming back to Late Night tonight.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Well, I won't be watching.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
I honestly think that there's going to be a lot
of people who tune in just to see what he says.
But then and it's going to go back to the
same old, same old, and the outcome I think is
still going to be the same if they say everything
was true about when his contract is up. He doesn't
have that many months left.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
I am going to choose to not support in any capacity.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
