Speaker 1 (00:00):
Apparently I do something that poor people do, and I
won't apologize for it. I'll do it until the day
I die. Whether I make millions of dollars or what
I make right now, which is a couple hundred bucks,
I will continue to do this. I feel like everybody
and their mother has something that they do because it
saves money. Eight five five graves.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Zero, Okay, what is it?
Speaker 3 (00:23):
So?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
I got a new soniccare toothbrush. Okay, my last one
I had for like fifteen sixteen years something like that
finally broke. So I was like, all right, I'll go
get ato one. Well, it comes in this nice box
and around the charging station there's that plastic protective film
that they have. It comes on TVs, it's on cars.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
It's comes on everything these days, right.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
I leave it on. I don't take it off. Ever, why,
I don't know. I think a part of me in
my brain says that if it's there, it is doing
what it's supposed to do, which is pret I have
a truck, and in my truck there's the plastic wrap
that is on top of one of the badges when
you get into the cab.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
That would drive me insane.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
It's still there. I've had this.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Yeah, absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
So don't you don't do anything that is an example
of what somebody who doesn't have a lot of money
would do. I mean, my mom was the queen of
this stuff. Have I ever told you about the Christmas
card things with my mom? No, If my mom got
a Christmas card from you, she would cut the greeting
off the nice thing that you wrote to her. Yeah,
(01:35):
and then she'd use the other part of the card
as a tag for a Christmas gift the next year.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It's kind of genius, and we're thinking, huh, maybe I
should be doing that. I know Steve makes fun of me,
but when we travel, I carry my own bar soap
because I have very sensitive skin when it comes to
like body washes and lotions and things like that, and
so like I've found what works. And even if we're
on on like a week trip, okay, and there's like
(02:03):
a sliver of the bar of soap left, like I'm
talking like embarrassing. Oh No, I've brought a ziploc bag
from home and I'm bringing that home and I'm going
to finish that bar of soap, like I'm every single time.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
If you get to a hotel, and you like the
soaps that they have or the little shampoos that come.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
In about I paid for those you coming home with me.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
My mom does the save exact thing. And then anytime
I went on a trip when I was in high school,
she would go, make sure you grab a bar soap
in one of those little toiletry things to go.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
I use them in my guest bathroom a lot of times.
That way, I don't have to like put like full
bottles of shampoo and stuff like that. I have those
little minis.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
And y'all could be multimillionaires, right like at the end
of your life, you could have millions and millions of dollars.
You'll still do.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
That, well, I will still do it forever. Steve says
that we'll never have millions of dollars because I continue
to go on these trips where I carryed a bar
of soap. It's fine, it's fine.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
What do you guys do. It's saving money. Some people
say it's a poor people deal. Hi, Candy, what's up?
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Good morning?
Speaker 4 (03:02):
So I was calling in to let you know what
we do at our house. I was in high school
and some beauty school drop out, but at our house
I still do all of the haircuts, my color hair,
I do everything, so we save hundreds of dollars a month.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Sure, sure, but your kids also have good haircuts because
you who went to school for that kind of thing.
My mom used the haircutting system that attached to the vacuum.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Oh my, I would love this so much if there
was somebody in my family that could do the amount
of money we could save. I mean, these roots and
these growers, I mean, it takes a lot to cover
them off.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
I'm just saying, does it does?
Speaker 5 (03:46):
My sister, my older sisters, has decided she wants to
go into cosmtology school, so she is in her last semester.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
So now I.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Don't even have to color my own hair.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
My sister does it for me and it's still free.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
So wait a minute. If you're a stylist, do you
actually do your own hair or do you have to
trust somebody else in the shop to do your own.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
Most of the time, I just do my own, but
now I've started letting her do my own.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
But hell no, Candy, I would look like a drunk
guy on a lawnmower. I'd have so many lines and
streaks and bad gouges. In my hair. No way.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Well, like I said, she's in her last semester in
costology school, so she's been doing several clients and so
I'm just like, we'll go to it.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah, that's right. First year, You're like, let's put down
the scissors and let's just do the shampoo and then
we'll work up.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Then we'll talk.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Thank you, Candy. Have an awesome day y'all too. Bye Bye, Hey, Kathy,
what's up?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
You know we're talking about man apprugal. I went she
my sister in all Thanksgiving for the first time, and
it is trying to fix something to drink. She reaches
into the cabinet and there's this big cup with everybody's
names it. It's like Dixie cups with everybody's names on it.
So she gets the new bag and gives me a
(05:06):
cup and my name on it. And I guess everybody
has their one cup that they use every time they
come to her house.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
So you're talking about like a red solo cup with
sharpie and your name written on it. I think it's
genius to do it that way. She obviously washed someme.
She just put them back at the cup.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
She puts them in the dishwasher and then puts the
back in the cover.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yes, so that's talking about it. Isn't that the same?
Isn't that the same as you know, having a cup
that you wash and you put it in there. I
don't think it's that bad of an idea.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
I think it's crazy like it.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
It might be crazy, Kathy, but it's family.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Yeah. Some of these people had their same cup for years.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
That's right. It becomes a fabric of the life. And
then when you need to retire that cup, it can
become that plastic shower cup that everybody has.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Well, I started stopping and get me a twenty out third.
It just take him with.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Me, I like Kathy, have an awesome day. Yel Stephanie,
can you take us off bluetooth or speaker?
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Yes? So, my poor people thing is I rent solo cups.
My husband hates it.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
My husband does this too, and every time he tries
to put one in the dishwasher, I just throw it away.
It drives me hand rints.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
I don't dishwasher because of the psychopath.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Like my husband got it.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
But it's only me and my husband. He will use
ten or twelve a day and it drives me absolutely insane.
I will rinse them out and use them again, and
he hates it.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Wait a minute, why is he using so many solo cups?
Speaker 6 (06:43):
He uses one for everything. If he uses it once,
if it touches his lips, it is over with and
then he will get another one.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
And is he using one for dip? And do you
wash that out?
Speaker 6 (06:54):
He does? And if he does use one for dip,
I do throw that away. I am not taking you.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
It's like you do have boundaries. Okay, yes, yes, some
of them.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
He will actually now take and crush them so that
they're broken and I can't watch them.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
I love how this has started a little bit of
a petty argument between you and your husband. How many
years has this been going on?
Speaker 6 (07:18):
We've been together twelve years?
Speaker 1 (07:20):
So is it a race to see who can get
to the solo cup fastest?
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Like?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Does he feel bad if he leaves it on the
counter and you got to it?
Speaker 6 (07:28):
Yes, because I want it, and then he will grab
it and use it for him.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Oh my god, so good.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Well, thank you very much. We appreciate you. Have an
awesome day. Yes you too, giving you all the warm
fuzzies and whatnot. It's the good good on the Spencer
Grave Show. Next time you're not feeling well, go out
and buy a lottery ticket. It should make you feel
a lot better. There was a woman who was suffering
from an illness kept her in bed for an entire week,
(07:57):
but when she started to feel better, she decided to
get out of the get some fresh air. So she
went down to her local gas station. She bought a
lottery ticket one one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Okay, now, is this like a guarantee?
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Like?
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Is this like I need more details because like if
I knew I could make like one hundred thousand dollars,
I'll make myself sick and then I'll drive to the
Chennessea state line.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
You know what they say, you can't win if you
don't play. We do the good Good every morning around
six thirty. That's where we share some good news for you.
And this story actually could have made the good good,
but I loved it for a whole different reason. There
was a guy who had his car stolen. It was
a nineteen ninety six Toyota Camra and on the car
was a bumper sticker that said the value of this
car is less than a Baja Blast. That's that specialty
(08:42):
mountain dew that's out there.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
We all know.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
We all know what Baja blasts.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Maybe some people don't. I don't know. So anyway, his
car was stolen. Well, two months after it was stolen,
they found the car. It was completely destroyed and they
found the person who stole the car. That person was
immediately arrested, taking a jail. However, it right. But however,
when they stood in front of the judge, the guy
who owned the car made one simple plea, if the
(09:09):
thief decides to buy me a Baha Blast, I will
not press charges and I'll let that person walk for free.
He wanted to honor the bumper sticker, which I think
is hilarious. So the judge looked at the woman who
stole the car and said, you're getting off pretty easy.
So she went down and bought a Baja Blast and
(09:30):
brought it back to the guy. Funny thing, dude's not
even into Baja Blast. He tried it and he said
it's not a style of soft drink.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I meant, you know what, Good for him for having
a sense of humor, But there's no way I'd be like,
I'll go buy my own Baja Blast if I'm that
intrigued on it.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
It's like those trades that you see and hear people
make all the time, and especially in Southern culture. If
you drive by a produce stand or a roadside farmer
or something like that, you'll make a trade. I can
remember when I was I don't know one something like that.
I was driving down the road and I was listening
to Creed and I saw a farmer sitting off on
(10:10):
the side of the road and he was selling farm
fresh eggs. And you know, if you're gonna get farm
fresh eggs, you got to get them from an actual farmer.
You can't go to forks or something like that, right,
So I pull up and I was like, hey, man,
how much for a couple dozen? And he told me
a dollar amount that I didn't have in cash. But
he made a joke about the Creed that I was
(10:31):
listening to, and he goes, ah, man, that's such a
good song. I love it. I said, well, if I
trade you the CD, can I have those two dozen eggs?
And he said absolutely, So I gave up a Creed
CD solely for farm fresh eggs.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
My best friend Rachel, her husband's obsessed with Creed and
he would say that there's no way he would have
been given a piss cleen CD, like, there's just no way.
I feel like you got the bad end of that deal, though,
I mean now eggs are very expensive. Back I mean
back then, I feel like you got the bad end
of the deal.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Trust me. It was a sixteen dollars CD that I
got a best buy, so I knew that I was
in it for a little bit. However, I didn't pay
for that CD. I worked there.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
I got that for three But still, this is why
I don't do trades, because you're not like thinking correctly,
because you want something so bad you're willing to trade whatever,
so you're not in the right frame of mind.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Can y'all share with us some of the weird items
you've either been offered or you offered to trade someone else?
Eight five five graves zero tram? What's up by not
a whole lot?
Speaker 6 (11:35):
How are you all this morning?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Living the dream? We were just talking about a guy
who had his car stolen. The woman who stole the
car got off easy because she bought him a Baja
Blast instead of going to jail.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
Once upon a time, I traded a nineteen ninety two
mos de.
Speaker 7 (11:50):
Navajo, which is basically MOS's version of a four explore
for a laptop.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Huh wait, okay, who got screwedin deal?
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (12:01):
I need more details here.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
So my buddy was made a vehicle. I was made
a laptop. So we both came out on the good
end for the time being until the time.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Yeah, So which one crapped out first? Was it the
laptop or the car?
Speaker 6 (12:17):
The car?
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Did?
Speaker 7 (12:21):
It served?
Speaker 6 (12:22):
It served every purpose that he needed it for. So
he wasn't mad, he wasn't upset.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
And he well, he agreed to like.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
A brother to me to this day.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
There you go, and Trent could sit there and google
until his little fingers were worn out. It's how country
are you? On the Spencer Grave Show, Blair before Jarrett
says a word, I want you to tell me whether
or not you think he's country.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
With that kind of name, I think you got to go, yes, Jarrett, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yeah, Jared, good morning, Thank you buddy. I appreciate you
jumping on this morning.
Speaker 7 (12:53):
No problem, no problem, Yes, del Jared. After eighty eight
racecar driver.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Look at this guy knowing his NASCAR.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
That's what I'm talking A feeling on.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
A scale of one to country. Jared, how country are you?
Speaker 7 (13:05):
I'll give myself by night.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
All right, let's go with it. I'm going to ask
you a question about NASCAR to kick off. Out of
the three in NASCAR, who's known as the King? No? No,
h Richard Petty King?
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Okay, but he corrected himself, so he gets that. Yeah,
but I mean in his life and in his world,
he's named after the guy he is, King named after Dale.
Speaker 7 (13:32):
Jared, I mean, yeah, I'm born in two thousand, so
I mean I go back so far.

Jared's like, where do you want to start?
Speaker 4 (13:59):
All right? Here go?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Final question? What's three good uses for a truck?
Speaker 7 (14:05):
Three good uses for a truck? Number one is you know,
just your yard work, normal stuff, and then you know,
getting the deer home after you shoot it, yep. And
then you know just tailgating.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
You know, it's funny that you bring up getting the
deer home after shooting it because I got a buddy
of mine named CJ. He is a very accomplished hunter
and he drives a Prius and guess what, he has
no problem throwing a deer in the back of that
Prius with a tart.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
I mean, I guess yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Dude, nicely done today. You're actually gonna be a seven
point eight. You gotta know, Richard Petty right off the rip.
But that's okay. You did an awesome job with us
Speaker 7 (14:48):
Okay, I appreciate you.
