Speaker 1 (00:00):
Filling in for Blair this morning. Is a good friend
of mine. Riley. You guys are going to get to
know her a little bit. She's been on the show
before when people have been out. You know, Blair just
had a surgery yesterday, so she's at home recuperating and
we wish her nothing but the best. But there's one thing, Riley,
and I'm so happy that you don't have this, and
we've documented this on the show. People who claim they
have time blindness, which I've always said is a long
(00:22):
way to spell the word late. I am somebody where
you have to be on time. Fifteen minutes early is
on time. Anything after that is truly late. You have
been on time every time I've asked you to come in.
Where does that come from?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
My punctuality depends on what it is. So hanging out
with friends, they know if I say a time, it's
going to be thirty minutes after that. But when it
comes to stuff like this, practice, school, anything, responsibility, responsibilities,
I'm going to be on time, whereas my boyfriend, five
to ten minutes early is on time.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Anything after that is late.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I agree. So that's the way that I was raised
is if you're early or on time. If you're on time,
you're late.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
And I actually had a coach my freshman year of
college and if we weren't there five to ten minutes early,
we were late.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
So what would they make you do? Run hills, suicides,
anything like that.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
More of a talking to of just being disappointed. This
is what time you need to be here for me.
That's all I needed to hear.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
When you hear anybody in a position of power like
a boss, a parent, a coach, and they go, I'm
not mad, I'm disappointed.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
As it cuts.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, all right, well, thank you for being on time.
I appreciate that. That's a grave show. My good friend
Riley is joining me for the next couple of days
while Blair recuperates from having surgery yesterday a five five
grave zero. We brought up a story, I think it
was right before you got here, and we were talking
about cell phones being banned in a school in Georgia. Yeah,
(01:53):
so you show up, you give your teacher your cell phone,
they put in one of these locked bags and you
don't have access to it until the end of the day.
Somebody wrote me a message slid to my DMS on
my install mister Spencer Graves and said, what would happen
if that was your job?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Oh gosh?
Speaker 1 (02:11):
And I said, explain a little more. And they said,
what if you went to work every day and your
boss said, I need everybody's cell phones. I'm going to
put it in this bag. It's going to get locked.
At the end of the day, you get your phone back.
Would you continue to work there now? And do they
have the power to do that? No?
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I will say.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I know a lady who works for the government and
she has to lock her phone in a'm safe every
day when she goes into work.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Oh is that because of like security appearances and where
what she does?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I don't she couldn't tell us exactly what she did.
But that makes sense of those idea A right, Yeah,
But my thing is.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
You're working the front desk takes sea Come on now.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
No, yeah for me though, I'm Mike.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
If I'm working a job and I'm a grown woman
and you don't trust me to take care of my
business with my phone, you don't need to hire me anyways.
If I can't get done what I need to get
done and be responsible with my cell phone. Also for
emergency purposes, I want to have my phone on me
if something were to happen, I'd want to be able
to know what's going on and be available the.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Person who sent me the DM She went on, She goes,
this is honestly in response to all the parents that
we had on the show that were like, I think
it's a great idea that kids shouldn't have their phones
in school. She's like, yeah, but if the reverse you
wouldn't be happy. Yeah, but if you're an adult, you
would not let your boss take your phone.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
The thing is, it's school and these are kids. I mean,
we weren't allowed to have our phones out during school.
We had to keep them in our backpacks. But now
because everyone has phones, I don't think it's a bad
thing for kids to be able to have them, like
in their backpack or on them, But not if they're
out in class, Like there's rules set and put.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
But with your boss, if your boss came to you
every day and said you need to take your phone
in this lock bag and I'll give it to you
at the end of the day, I'm out time out,
we've gotten into this conversation of whether or not your
boss should be allowed to take your phone from you.
At work, we can talk to you because you actually
aren't allowed to have your phone at work anyway.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Why I work in a secure area where we're not
allowed to have any kind of camera device because they
don't want what we're making there to get out.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Oh yeah, it'selling secrets.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
Yeah exactly. We can bring our phone into the building,
but we have to leave it in our locker or
where's a cubby box where we can put our phones.
But when you scan your finger to go into the
secure area, no metal at all, or we're talking, no
buttons on your pants, no zippers, nothing.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Okay. So when you're in like the office side of
this secure area, you're fine. But if you're in the
back where they make all the stuff that you're not
allowed to show are.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
In the secure area too.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Oh wow, wow?
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Do you have the building?
Speaker 5 (05:00):
There's a breakroom. You can leave your phone in the
locker in the breakroom when you take your fifteen minute
break in your hour lunch. You're more than welcome to
be on your phone, but you have to be in
the breakroom or outside the building.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Okay, So take me through the break that you have
or your lunch. Are you on your phone? The fifty
nine to sixty minutes.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
I usually check it. I might be on it maybe
fifteen minutes.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I'd be playing golf clash. I'd be sitting there like
trying to see where I'm at ranking.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Yeah, but you definitely cannot play on your phone or
make phone calls.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Was that an adjustment when you first started working there
or was it pretty easy to just give up your
phone for the day.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
I don't know. Smartphones had come out, but it wasn't
a huge thing. Like I had just gotten my first
smartphone when I started working there.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
So I wasn't addicted to it yet yet.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
It is an adjustment, especially for like new hires. Oh,
I'm sure they have a hard time when they're told
they can't bring their phone into the office.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
What do they do?
Speaker 5 (05:59):
They meld down, Well, they either learn to deal with
her they leave not allowed in the ability.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Thank you very much, have an awesome day today. Conversation
that we got into this morning is since kids don't
have their phones at school, we just had a quick
conversation of whether or not when you go to work,
you'd allow your boss to take your phone. Eight five
to five Grave zero, Jody, would you.
Speaker 6 (06:24):
No, my boss ain't taking my phone.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I'll give my boss my phone. I won't give you
the password, and I won't let you put face ID
on for me. I don't want you getting into what
I got on my phone. But I'll give you my
phone if you just want to hold it. It can
be a paperweight for you.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
I used to work industrial maintenance, so and I was
on the response teams, so if anybody got hurt, I'd
rather have my phone sign't call.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
That's right, Yeah, it's if somebody didn't have their phone,
everybody'd be like, who's going to call nine one one
when we don't have anybody here that's got a phone.
Everybody looks at the boss and they're like, you gotta
call him.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Yeah, because you have all of our phones.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Well, Jody, thanks buddy, appreciate your time. Be safe driving today.
Speaker 7 (07:09):
Thank you giving.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
You all the warm fuzzies and whatnot. It's the good
good On the Spencer Grave Show, you know those moments
where your mind starts telling you little things. It feels
like you've got an angel on your shoulder and a
devil on the other, and you got to listen to
one of them. A guy in Maryland did just that.
He was mowing his neighbor's lawn, and he kept getting
a random set of numbers that were going through his mind. One, three, six,
(07:36):
zero and five. He said it was going on for
about an hour, then two, then three, So he was
just like, I gotta go buy a lottery ticket. He
did those numbers hit for one hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I honestly wish that would happen to me.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I don't think I've ever had a situation where it's
been that clear in my head. But I'm really going
to start praying for something like that.
Speaker 7 (08:00):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
I think people are going to hear this story and
in their mind, they're going to go, I gotta start
thinking about random numbers. No, these things just popped up
to this guy. But he's going to use the money
to pay off some debt and go on a big
road trip and spoil his wife because she's the one
that said, just stop thinking about it, go buy a
lottery ticket. You guys have been listening to Spencer Grave show.
Blair is home recuperating. She had a hysterectomy yesterday and
(08:23):
the surgery went extremely well, so we're very thankful to
the doctors and the medical staff. But now she's got
to do what she's got to do, which is get
healthy and get back my friend Riley, who joins me
whenever we have somebody who's out of the studio. And
you actually had some pretty big news that you wanted
to celebrate. Earlier in the show, you called him your boyfriend.
We hinted towards it during Three Things, but he's actually
(08:45):
your FIANCEEKO, So congrat.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
You and Corey got engaged. Can you tell everybody the
story behind the engagement.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Yeah, it was pretty crazy and I was completely shocked.
And that was his number one goal throughout the past
few months. He was like, no matter what, you're not
going to say, see it coming now. I knew it
was going to be in his off season he plays
professional baseball, just because we only have that window of
time to get engaged and the following year get married.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
But we were down at the.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Beach and I thought we were just going for a
regular date night.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
I got all dressed up.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I even filmed a get Ready with Me video, which
I don't do often, but I just did it because
I had the time, and we go to Zeke's marina.
He said it was great food, we were going out
deep sea fishing the next day. And we're walking down
and I'm a chatty Cathy and I'm like, look at
that boat, Look at that boat. I'm like, oh, are
we going to go look at these boats? And then
he stopped me. He was like, hey, you know how
(09:37):
much I love you? Right?
Speaker 3 (09:38):
And my heart sank.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
But in my head, I'm like, well, I know my
whole family's supposed to be here. We're at the beach.
They're not here. Did I pressure him to doing it
here at the beach? Like did he feel the pressure
that we had to do it this soon?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Wait a minute, So you had no idea that you
were going to get engaged, but your whole family was
going to join you guys on date night.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
I didn't know they were there. They were hiding and
he got down on one knee. I was shocked. I
think I blacked out.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
He told me, He's like, hey, babe, I need a
verbal yes. I was like yes, sorry, I just ad shock.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
And then he pointed and I looked to my right
and it's my whole family and his whole family walking up.
My little nephew runs up ry Raykoco, and I was
just in awe.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Okay, so he planned every little detail. He had somebody
ray to record this too.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Yep, the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
My sister took photos, my mom and brother video the
whole thing.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
How impressive?
Speaker 5 (10:29):
Was that?
Speaker 3 (10:30):
So impressive?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I was really like, dang, babe, but I had no
idea you had that in you.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Uh, incredible. If you guys want to share your proposal
story with us eight five five Grave zero, especially, let's
try to find some women who completely blacked out and
didn't remember or hear what their guy was saying. So
we're over here in the studio just talking about your
interesting engagement stories. Maybe there was a little bit of
(10:55):
a fail and embarrassing moment eight five to five Grave
zero because Riley was in for Blair while she's recuperating
from surgery recently got engaged. Congratulations, thank you so much.
Your fiance planned it all out, It was perfect. Your
family was there, his family was there. But you kind
of blacked out. You don't remember what he said?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, I don't remember a thing after you know, how
we want to spend forever together. I was like yeah,
and then it went back e five five Graves zero.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Tommy, how did you get engaged.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
In a tow truck. Really, yes, she had broke down
and she called our record line.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
She had locked her.
Speaker 7 (11:32):
Keys in her vehicle. Well, I went out and unlocked
the car and gave her a business card and I said,
if you ever need, you know, need me, just you know,
call the record service again. I wrote my name and
phone number on the back card. Four days later, she
freaking run out of gas and she calls me. Though
I had to go load a car up on the
(11:52):
back of the towtrup, take it to the gas station.
She put gas in it, unloaded her and the fourth time,
I told her that this is beginning to be a pattern,
you know. So anyway, that's how we met, you know,
I you know, I asked her out and everything and
all that was married like fourteen years.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Well, thank you, Tommy, appreciate your time.
Speaker 7 (12:13):
My guy, all right, my friend, appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Can you do me a favorite? Say hi to Riley,
she's in for Blair while Blair recuperates from surgery.

Hi, Riley, Well hello you doing.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
I'm great. How are you.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
I'm just making the trip to the kids' school. But
everything's good, Kate.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
It's really hard to sit in the studio because I
got to dim these lights. It keeps hitting this giant rock.
I don't even know where that Titanic hit that iceberg,
but it is blinding me because Riley just got engaged.
Do you have a great engagement story for us?
Speaker 4 (12:42):
Oh, well, it's a it's definitely different than all the
typical cute proposals. Okay, definitely sweet of my husband.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
What do you have, Kate, what's the story?
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Well, we went hunting and typically in the mornings, he
goes to the gas station, gets me something for.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Breakfast or a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit. Yup, go ahead.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
Well, that morning, I don't know if it's his nerves
getting to him or what, but he totally skipped the
gas station. Needless to say, I was hungry and we
are sitting in the tcheeting house and I'm like, okay,
I'm hungry, and this fool is on his phone texting
somebody like he don't make me miss my dang buck
(13:26):
And eventually was like, well, hey, Grandaddy needs me to
go check on the land to see if there's any
trees down. Okay, cool, whatever, I'll do anything for Granddaddy. Well,
we get on there, and I'm like, this fool is
driving ten miles an hour up this driveway and I
am starving. So I'm sitting there cutting him out. I'm like,
(13:46):
if you don't hurry up, I'm gonna be extra because
I was hungry. And we get up there and I'm like, okay,
well we're good. We can get going because there's no
tree down. I turn around and the fool is on
his knee. I'm like, oh, snap, this is happening.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
This is happening. I doesn't cuss you out and everything
this morning, And.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
So obviously you said, yes, how long have you guys
been married.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
We've been married as the Bontember fifteenth, about nine years.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Congratulations.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
That's awesome, thank you, But yeah, not your typical sweet
Oh but you know I was.
Speaker 5 (14:23):
I was cussing him out beforehand.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
I love it. It's a story you'll tell forever.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
It's How country are you? On the Spencer Grave Show? Michael,
Where are you from.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
Around the rim Spring? All right?
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Shout out to our friends in rim Lap in Springville.
You're ready to play. I'm on a scale of one
of the country. How country are you?
Speaker 6 (14:44):
Usually corn bribe, So I hope I'm not a.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yes to today when I spit, biscuit comes out all right.
But here we go, buddy, we'll give you a score
at the end. What country singer came up with the
phrase yee ye and the character Earl Dibbles Smith look
at this guy so fast with it like that. What's
the best thing, Mikah, you can buy off the side
of the road.
Speaker 6 (15:05):
The best thing I could buy off saw the road
is probably some of them good old maters and candleos.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
So that's what Riley was saying.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
I completely agree with you.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
She was like, if I can get vegetables, I'm going
to get him off the side of the road. I'm
a boiled peanuts guy.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
I'd rather have my peanuts parts.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
See. I like driving by and seeing that old Ford
F one fifty that's beat up. It's like five different colors.
One of the quarter panels is primer gray because they
just got it. And I like knowing that they're toting
this thing that if it came unlodged from the truck
would be wildly dangerous.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
Yes, hey, we all have our little fists and giggles.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
All right, here we go. Last question. Share with us
the time you were covered in mud oh Man.
Speaker 6 (15:46):
At the time, I was covered in mud. It was
holding my beer. Watched this when a buddy of mine
decided to throw his little four Ranger two will drive
in the middle of a six foot month hit after
we told him no. But you know, you know how
it goes. You get one too many aluminum keas in
you and you're just invincible and nothing can stop you.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
It's the only way we readneck and people in the
South can prove scientific experiments. We have to test something
to see if.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
It's true exactly.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Yeah, I mean, we haven't had this in a long time.
Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to a perfect ten. If
you guys are just jumping into the Spencer Grave show,
you're hearing a different but a familiar voice to some
Riley fills in anytime. Somebody has been off the show.
And Blair had surgery yesterday, so she's home resting and recuperating.
(16:37):
And it's been so nice to have you in Riley.
But I was really excited about talking to you because
you just got back from Idaho. I sure did, where
you went on an l hunt. This is really your
first big.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Game hunt, first time.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
Yes, And when you and I talked before this. You
were like, I'm just kind of nervous. I'm little apprehensive.
I'm not one hundred percent, And I'm like, look, you're
gonna be awesome this. You don't realize how much hiking
is going to go into this. Yeah, you're going to
be awesome at this. And you ended up getting a cow,
a female elk, which is awesome.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
I sure did.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Yeah, I was so nervous because I am such a
perfectionist and I do enjoy hunting, but I haven't gone
a lot some kind of inexperience still.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
And elk is just completely different than being.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
So different, Oh my goodness. And I'd heard how much
hiking we would do and it exceeded even how much
I thought we would do. And so you're going through
your heart rates up because you're hiking all of these mountains,
going up and down, and then you're still that adrenaline
is there because you know you're hunting, and you have
to go from that to then super calm and make
(17:41):
a good shot. And so for me, I'm like, I
don't have that experience. What if I miss What if
we go all this way and I come back with nothing,
or what if I make a shot that is unethical,
and those were the things going through my head. And
obviously it went very different than the doubt I had,
and it was the best experience and I hoped to
be back again next year.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Did you learn about yourself in that moment?
Speaker 3 (18:02):
That I'm still an athlete and everything?
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I'm still awesome?
Speaker 5 (18:06):
Truly? Truly?
Speaker 3 (18:07):
I told my fiance Corey.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I was like, I really think my competitiveness and ability
to stay calm and really take deep breath, slow my
breathing down, and really getting that competitive mode. It just
took over me. I was silent the entire trip, but
if you know me, I'm a talker. But I was
able to stay silent, really stay focused, take deep breaths,
slow my breathing down, and actually make a perfect shot.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
That was four hundred and twenty yards.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
I didn't know it beforehand because I think my confidence
would have been a little bit lower going into it.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
But afterwards the guide looked.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
At me and he was like, you know, that was
four hundred and twenty yards, right, that's a great shot.
And I had no idea, so yeah, it was.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Well, congrats. If you guys want to see the picture,
jump on Spencer Grave Show. We've got Riley with her
cal elk from her hunt last week. My good friend
Riley is joining me for the next couple of days
while Blair recuperates from having surgery. Yes yesterday a FI
five Grave zero. I need some people to jump on
the phone. Those that know they can, but they trust
(19:07):
a professional to do it instead. This is me maturing
as an adult years ago. Well, I don't know, because
there's probably guys older than me that are like, no, man,
I'll do them as one percent. But over the weekend
I had a pipe burst. So you have the water
that comes from the town or the city and then
it goes to your house. Well, if something happens on
(19:27):
that line, depending on where it is, it's either your
responsibility as the homeowner, or it's the responsibility of the
water company.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
And they always have a line where it kind of marks.
Usually it's where there's a meter. Anything before the meter
they handle anything after. It's all you. Okay. So I
look outside the other day and I go, oh, I
didn't put in a swimming pool. It hasn't rained recently.
It's not all about I go over, I pop the
caps off the mains and I take a look and
(19:56):
they're full of water and I can see just a
little bit of water. So I'm like, there's a hole
in this pipe and now I gotta find it. So
I call the water company. They come down. They shut
off the water, which I could have done, but I
didn't know if it was their responsibility. I don't want
to mess with it, right, So they came down, they
shut down the water, and I'm standing out there with
the guy and I got to hold the light like
(20:16):
I'm his six year old son. And he's like, you
want to hold this light? And I was like, please,
don't yell at me like my dad used to it.
He was like, no problem. So I'm holding the light
and we noticed where the hole is and he goes,
all right, good news is this bad news? Is this
is your responsibility? Now? I could fix it, right. I've
(20:36):
done plenty of pipework before. I used to do irrigation,
Like I know how to do all this stuff. Yeah,
but I don't want to mess with it right because
I feel like that's so important that a pro needs
to come out and.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Do it now.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
I will tell you if this was my house and
my dad, he'd be fixing it. I hate no, i's
a's or butts. My dad is fixing it. He for
some reason, I guess because my granddaddy and how he
grew up. He fixes everything that breaks has an issue.
It doesn't matter if it's a car, it doesn't matter,
(21:10):
if it's our bathroom air conditioning, it doesn't matter what
it is in the house, he is fixing it.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
I've just come to the point and I've realized that
you have people in your life that are experts, and
you just need to trust the experts.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Well, it's their job for a reason, like they that
is what they do for a living.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
So let's let them.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Do their job. That's my It's the worst when they
show up to your house. They're the expert and they're like, cool,
it's gonna be eight thousand dollars, and you're like, oh,
that's good for a lot less. But would it hold up?
Would it be good? Like I don't want to just
patch it?
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Yeah, who knows?
Speaker 2 (21:47):
You could end up fixing yourself and costing what it
costs way more money than if you had just gone
with a professional from the get go.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
So what's the project that you decided to take on?
But then you had to call a pro to come
in and finish five graves zero. Riley is in for Blair,
who had surgery yesterday, so she's at home recuperating. I
have to tell you this story that happened to me yesterday.
I got called old by a teenager and it was fine.
It was fine. So when he called me old, it
(22:15):
was because I waved at him when he let me
get into traffic. Oh okay, so I gave him the
courtesy way.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Well, it turns out that we were going to the
same place. We were going to home depot.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
So when I got out of my truck, he walked
up to me and he goes, oh, dude, I didn't
realize you were that young. I thought you were an
old person. And I said, okay, why and he goes,
because you waved at me when I let you into traffic.
And I say, that's the courtesy wave. I feel like
that doesn't exist anymore. No, you're right, and he said
that's something that old people do.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
So you're old because you did the courtesy wave.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Yeah. So I started to think about it. I'm like, well,
you know what, there's a lot of things that I
would do that people consider old. I'm sure there's a
lot of things that you do that people would consider
something that old people do. A five to five grave zero.
I go to bed at seven thirty eight o'clock. Wow.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
See I don't do that, I know.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
But I get up every day at three o'clock. You
don't have to get up that early, that's true. So
that's something that I think most people would be like, Oh,
that's something senior citizens do.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I would agree.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Now, I find myself curious as to why so many
people think I'm so old. That's kind of the joke
on my social media that I look old or I
act old. I'm very mature for my age as you're what,
I'm twenty five.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Right, and they always think you're like forty forty.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
So still still haven't figured that one out.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
But one thing that I feel like I can do
that usually only older people can do is drive a
stick shift.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Oh, because that's kind of faded out a little bit.
I mean I can drive a stick. I grew up
driving a stick.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Blair her husband bought a Volkswagen Bug just to teach
her how to drive a stick.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
That's sick.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
It's for sale too, if anybody wants to buy it.
But yeah, driving a stick, I think that would make
you kind of an older person. I would agree a
five to five grave zero. Something you do that you
believe old people do. Georgetra t is something on Instagram
that has people scratching their heads and they're trying to
figure out what it means. He posted take me to
Texas with a long stretch road, an oil rig and
(24:14):
a horse. Also a road sign that said next exit
four hundred and twenty five miles. So what does this mean?
Because some news came out last year that George Strait
who played the highest highest ticketed show in American music history.
He played Kyle Field, Texas, A and M, and he
(24:35):
had one hundred and ten thousand tickets sold for that. Wow.
But then Zach Bryan played University of Michigan and he
edged him by like one hundred and forty tickets or something.
So now Zach Bryan's got the record. I don't think
that sits well with the King. I certainly wouldn't let
it sit well with me. Then Morgan Walling comes down.
He goes, Hey, I'm going to play all these stadiums,
(24:56):
and I thought that that's what he was going after
were some of these records Based on how he's setting
up his stage, He's going to one of the end zones. Yeah,
you know, if you were going to sell that many tickets,
you got to be at the fifty yard line in
a circle.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
Right.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Since he's doing that, I'm like, Okay, he's not trying
to break that record. I think George Strait might be
trying to find a place where he can break the
record and take it back from Zach Bryant.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
And I don't blame him. I do the same.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Just make that stage a little bit smaller.
Filling in for Blair this morning. Is a good friend
of mine. Riley. You guys are going to get to
know her a little bit. She's been on the show
before when people have been out. You know, Blair just
had a surgery yesterday, so she's at home recuperating and
we wish her nothing but the best. But there's one thing, Riley,
and I'm so happy that you don't have this, and
we've documented this on the show. People who claim they
have time blindness, which I've always said is a long
(00:22):
way to spell the word late. I am somebody where
you have to be on time. Fifteen minutes early is
on time. Anything after that is truly late. You have
been on time every time I've asked you to come in.
Where does that come from?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
My punctuality depends on what it is. So hanging out
with friends, they know if I say a time, it's
going to be thirty minutes after that. But when it
comes to stuff like this, practice, school, anything, responsibility, responsibilities,
I'm going to be on time, whereas my boyfriend, five
to ten minutes early is on time.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Anything after that is late.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I agree. So that's the way that I was raised
is if you're early or on time. If you're on time,
you're late.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
And I actually had a coach my freshman year of
college and if we weren't there five to ten minutes early,
we were late.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
So what would they make you do? Run hills, suicides,
anything like that.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
More of a talking to of just being disappointed. This
is what time you need to be here for me.
That's all I needed to hear.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
When you hear anybody in a position of power like
a boss, a parent, a coach, and they go, I'm
not mad, I'm disappointed.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
As it cuts.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, all right, well, thank you for being on time.
I appreciate that. That's a grave show. My good friend
Riley is joining me for the next couple of days
while Blair recuperates from having surgery yesterday a five five
grave zero. We brought up a story, I think it
was right before you got here, and we were talking
about cell phones being banned in a school in Georgia. Yeah,
(01:53):
so you show up, you give your teacher your cell phone,
they put in one of these locked bags and you
don't have access to it until the end of the day.
Somebody wrote me a message slid to my DMS on
my install mister Spencer Graves and said, what would happen
if that was your job?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Oh gosh?
Speaker 1 (02:11):
And I said, explain a little more. And they said,
what if you went to work every day and your
boss said, I need everybody's cell phones. I'm going to
put it in this bag. It's going to get locked.
At the end of the day, you get your phone back.
Would you continue to work there now? And do they
have the power to do that? No?
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I will say.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I know a lady who works for the government and
she has to lock her phone in a'm safe every
day when she goes into work.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Oh is that because of like security appearances and where
what she does?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I don't she couldn't tell us exactly what she did.
But that makes sense of those idea A right, Yeah,
But my thing is.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
You're working the front desk takes sea Come on now.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
No, yeah for me though, I'm Mike.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
If I'm working a job and I'm a grown woman
and you don't trust me to take care of my
business with my phone, you don't need to hire me anyways.
If I can't get done what I need to get
done and be responsible with my cell phone. Also for
emergency purposes, I want to have my phone on me
if something were to happen, I'd want to be able
to know what's going on and be available the.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Person who sent me the DM She went on, She goes,
this is honestly in response to all the parents that
we had on the show that were like, I think
it's a great idea that kids shouldn't have their phones
in school. She's like, yeah, but if the reverse you
wouldn't be happy. Yeah, but if you're an adult, you
would not let your boss take your phone.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
The thing is, it's school and these are kids. I mean,
we weren't allowed to have our phones out during school.
We had to keep them in our backpacks. But now
because everyone has phones, I don't think it's a bad
thing for kids to be able to have them, like
in their backpack or on them, But not if they're
out in class, Like there's rules set and put.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
But with your boss, if your boss came to you
every day and said you need to take your phone
in this lock bag and I'll give it to you
at the end of the day, I'm out time out,
we've gotten into this conversation of whether or not your
boss should be allowed to take your phone from you.
At work, we can talk to you because you actually
aren't allowed to have your phone at work anyway.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Why I work in a secure area where we're not
allowed to have any kind of camera device because they
don't want what we're making there to get out.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Oh yeah, it'selling secrets.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
Yeah exactly. We can bring our phone into the building,
but we have to leave it in our locker or
where's a cubby box where we can put our phones.
But when you scan your finger to go into the
secure area, no metal at all, or we're talking, no
buttons on your pants, no zippers, nothing.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Okay. So when you're in like the office side of
this secure area, you're fine. But if you're in the
back where they make all the stuff that you're not
allowed to show are.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
In the secure area too.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Oh wow, wow?
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Do you have the building?
Speaker 5 (05:00):
There's a breakroom. You can leave your phone in the
locker in the breakroom when you take your fifteen minute
break in your hour lunch. You're more than welcome to
be on your phone, but you have to be in
the breakroom or outside the building.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Okay, So take me through the break that you have
or your lunch. Are you on your phone? The fifty
nine to sixty minutes.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
I usually check it. I might be on it maybe
fifteen minutes.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I'd be playing golf clash. I'd be sitting there like
trying to see where I'm at ranking.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Yeah, but you definitely cannot play on your phone or
make phone calls.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Was that an adjustment when you first started working there
or was it pretty easy to just give up your
phone for the day.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
I don't know. Smartphones had come out, but it wasn't
a huge thing. Like I had just gotten my first
smartphone when I started working there.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
So I wasn't addicted to it yet yet.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
It is an adjustment, especially for like new hires. Oh,
I'm sure they have a hard time when they're told
they can't bring their phone into the office.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
What do they do?
Speaker 5 (05:59):
They meld down, Well, they either learn to deal with
her they leave not allowed in the ability.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Thank you very much, have an awesome day today. Conversation
that we got into this morning is since kids don't
have their phones at school, we just had a quick
conversation of whether or not when you go to work,
you'd allow your boss to take your phone. Eight five
to five Grave zero, Jody, would you.
Speaker 6 (06:24):
No, my boss ain't taking my phone.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I'll give my boss my phone. I won't give you
the password, and I won't let you put face ID
on for me. I don't want you getting into what
I got on my phone. But I'll give you my
phone if you just want to hold it. It can
be a paperweight for you.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
I used to work industrial maintenance, so and I was
on the response teams, so if anybody got hurt, I'd
rather have my phone sign't call.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
That's right, Yeah, it's if somebody didn't have their phone,
everybody'd be like, who's going to call nine one one
when we don't have anybody here that's got a phone.
Everybody looks at the boss and they're like, you gotta
call him.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Yeah, because you have all of our phones.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Well, Jody, thanks buddy, appreciate your time. Be safe driving today.
Speaker 7 (07:09):
Thank you giving.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
You all the warm fuzzies and whatnot. It's the good
good On the Spencer Grave Show, you know those moments
where your mind starts telling you little things. It feels
like you've got an angel on your shoulder and a
devil on the other, and you got to listen to
one of them. A guy in Maryland did just that.
He was mowing his neighbor's lawn, and he kept getting
a random set of numbers that were going through his mind. One, three, six,
(07:36):
zero and five. He said it was going on for
about an hour, then two, then three, So he was
just like, I gotta go buy a lottery ticket. He
did those numbers hit for one hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I honestly wish that would happen to me.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I don't think I've ever had a situation where it's
been that clear in my head. But I'm really going
to start praying for something like that.
Speaker 7 (08:00):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
I think people are going to hear this story and
in their mind, they're going to go, I gotta start
thinking about random numbers. No, these things just popped up
to this guy. But he's going to use the money
to pay off some debt and go on a big
road trip and spoil his wife because she's the one
that said, just stop thinking about it, go buy a
lottery ticket. You guys have been listening to Spencer Grave show.
Blair is home recuperating. She had a hysterectomy yesterday and
(08:23):
the surgery went extremely well, so we're very thankful to
the doctors and the medical staff. But now she's got
to do what she's got to do, which is get
healthy and get back my friend Riley, who joins me
whenever we have somebody who's out of the studio. And
you actually had some pretty big news that you wanted
to celebrate. Earlier in the show, you called him your boyfriend.
We hinted towards it during Three Things, but he's actually
(08:45):
your FIANCEEKO, So congrat.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
You and Corey got engaged. Can you tell everybody the
story behind the engagement.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Yeah, it was pretty crazy and I was completely shocked.
And that was his number one goal throughout the past
few months. He was like, no matter what, you're not
going to say, see it coming now. I knew it
was going to be in his off season he plays
professional baseball, just because we only have that window of
time to get engaged and the following year get married.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
But we were down at the.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Beach and I thought we were just going for a
regular date night.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
I got all dressed up.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I even filmed a get Ready with Me video, which
I don't do often, but I just did it because
I had the time, and we go to Zeke's marina.
He said it was great food, we were going out
deep sea fishing the next day. And we're walking down
and I'm a chatty Cathy and I'm like, look at
that boat, Look at that boat. I'm like, oh, are
we going to go look at these boats? And then
he stopped me. He was like, hey, you know how
(09:37):
much I love you? Right?
Speaker 3 (09:38):
And my heart sank.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
But in my head, I'm like, well, I know my
whole family's supposed to be here. We're at the beach.
They're not here. Did I pressure him to doing it
here at the beach? Like did he feel the pressure
that we had to do it this soon?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Wait a minute, So you had no idea that you
were going to get engaged, but your whole family was
going to join you guys on date night.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
I didn't know they were there. They were hiding and
he got down on one knee. I was shocked. I
think I blacked out.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
He told me, He's like, hey, babe, I need a
verbal yes. I was like yes, sorry, I just ad shock.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
And then he pointed and I looked to my right
and it's my whole family and his whole family walking up.
My little nephew runs up ry Raykoco, and I was
just in awe.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Okay, so he planned every little detail. He had somebody
ray to record this too.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Yep, the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
My sister took photos, my mom and brother video the
whole thing.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
How impressive?
Speaker 5 (10:29):
Was that?
Speaker 3 (10:30):
So impressive?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I was really like, dang, babe, but I had no
idea you had that in you.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Uh, incredible. If you guys want to share your proposal
story with us eight five five Grave zero, especially, let's
try to find some women who completely blacked out and
didn't remember or hear what their guy was saying. So
we're over here in the studio just talking about your
interesting engagement stories. Maybe there was a little bit of
(10:55):
a fail and embarrassing moment eight five to five Grave
zero because Riley was in for Blair while she's recuperating
from surgery recently got engaged. Congratulations, thank you so much.
Your fiance planned it all out, It was perfect. Your
family was there, his family was there. But you kind
of blacked out. You don't remember what he said?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, I don't remember a thing after you know, how
we want to spend forever together. I was like yeah,
and then it went back e five five Graves zero.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Tommy, how did you get engaged.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
In a tow truck. Really, yes, she had broke down
and she called our record line.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
She had locked her.
Speaker 7 (11:32):
Keys in her vehicle. Well, I went out and unlocked
the car and gave her a business card and I said,
if you ever need, you know, need me, just you know,
call the record service again. I wrote my name and
phone number on the back card. Four days later, she
freaking run out of gas and she calls me. Though
I had to go load a car up on the
(11:52):
back of the towtrup, take it to the gas station.
She put gas in it, unloaded her and the fourth time,
I told her that this is beginning to be a pattern,
you know. So anyway, that's how we met, you know,
I you know, I asked her out and everything and
all that was married like fourteen years.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Well, thank you, Tommy, appreciate your time.
Speaker 7 (12:13):
My guy, all right, my friend, appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Can you do me a favorite? Say hi to Riley,
she's in for Blair while Blair recuperates from surgery.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
Hi, Riley, Well hello you doing.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
I'm great. How are you.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
I'm just making the trip to the kids' school. But
everything's good, Kate.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
It's really hard to sit in the studio because I
got to dim these lights. It keeps hitting this giant rock.
I don't even know where that Titanic hit that iceberg,
but it is blinding me because Riley just got engaged.
Do you have a great engagement story for us?
Speaker 4 (12:42):
Oh, well, it's a it's definitely different than all the
typical cute proposals. Okay, definitely sweet of my husband.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
What do you have, Kate, what's the story?
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Well, we went hunting and typically in the mornings, he
goes to the gas station, gets me something for.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Breakfast or a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit. Yup, go ahead.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
Well, that morning, I don't know if it's his nerves
getting to him or what, but he totally skipped the
gas station. Needless to say, I was hungry and we
are sitting in the tcheeting house and I'm like, okay,
I'm hungry, and this fool is on his phone texting
somebody like he don't make me miss my dang buck
(13:26):
And eventually was like, well, hey, Grandaddy needs me to
go check on the land to see if there's any
trees down. Okay, cool, whatever, I'll do anything for Granddaddy. Well,
we get on there, and I'm like, this fool is
driving ten miles an hour up this driveway and I
am starving. So I'm sitting there cutting him out. I'm like,
(13:46):
if you don't hurry up, I'm gonna be extra because
I was hungry. And we get up there and I'm like, okay,
well we're good. We can get going because there's no
tree down. I turn around and the fool is on
his knee. I'm like, oh, snap, this is happening.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
This is happening. I doesn't cuss you out and everything
this morning, And.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
So obviously you said, yes, how long have you guys
been married.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
We've been married as the Bontember fifteenth, about nine years.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Congratulations.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
That's awesome, thank you, But yeah, not your typical sweet
Oh but you know I was.
Speaker 5 (14:23):
I was cussing him out beforehand.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
I love it. It's a story you'll tell forever.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
It's How country are you? On the Spencer Grave Show? Michael,
Where are you from.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
Around the rim Spring? All right?

at the end. What country singer came up with the
phrase yee ye and the character Earl Dibbles Smith look
at this guy so fast with it like that. What's
the best thing, Mikah, you can buy off the side
of the road.
Speaker 6 (15:05):
The best thing I could buy off saw the road
is probably some of them good old maters and candleos.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
So that's what Riley was saying.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
I completely agree with you.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
She was like, if I can get vegetables, I'm going
to get him off the side of the road. I'm
a boiled peanuts guy.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
I'd rather have my peanuts parts.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
See. I like driving by and seeing that old Ford
F one fifty that's beat up. It's like five different colors.
One of the quarter panels is primer gray because they
just got it. And I like knowing that they're toting
this thing that if it came unlodged from the truck
would be wildly dangerous.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
Yes, hey, we all have our little fists and giggles.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
All right, here we go. Last question. Share with us
the time you were covered in mud oh Man.
Speaker 6 (15:46):
At the time, I was covered in mud. It was
holding my beer. Watched this when a buddy of mine
decided to throw his little four Ranger two will drive
in the middle of a six foot month hit after
we told him no. But you know, you know how
it goes. You get one too many aluminum keas in
you and you're just invincible and nothing can stop you.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
It's the only way we readneck and people in the
South can prove scientific experiments. We have to test something
to see if.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
It's true exactly.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Yeah, I mean, we haven't had this in a long time.
Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to a perfect ten. If
you guys are just jumping into the Spencer Grave show,
you're hearing a different but a familiar voice to some
Riley fills in anytime. Somebody has been off the show.
And Blair had surgery yesterday, so she's home resting and recuperating.
(16:37):
And it's been so nice to have you in Riley.
But I was really excited about talking to you because
you just got back from Idaho. I sure did, where
you went on an l hunt. This is really your
first big.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Game hunt, first time.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
Yes, And when you and I talked before this. You
were like, I'm just kind of nervous. I'm little apprehensive.
I'm not one hundred percent, And I'm like, look, you're
gonna be awesome this. You don't realize how much hiking
is going to go into this. Yeah, you're going to
be awesome at this. And you ended up getting a cow,
a female elk, which is awesome.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
I sure did.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Yeah, I was so nervous because I am such a
perfectionist and I do enjoy hunting, but I haven't gone
a lot some kind of inexperience still.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
And elk is just completely different than being.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
So different, Oh my goodness. And I'd heard how much
hiking we would do and it exceeded even how much
I thought we would do. And so you're going through
your heart rates up because you're hiking all of these mountains,
going up and down, and then you're still that adrenaline
is there because you know you're hunting, and you have
to go from that to then super calm and make
(17:41):
a good shot. And so for me, I'm like, I
don't have that experience. What if I miss What if
we go all this way and I come back with nothing,
or what if I make a shot that is unethical,
and those were the things going through my head. And
obviously it went very different than the doubt I had,
and it was the best experience and I hoped to
be back again next year.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Did you learn about yourself in that moment?
Speaker 3 (18:02):
That I'm still an athlete and everything?
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I'm still awesome?
Speaker 5 (18:06):
Truly? Truly?
Speaker 3 (18:07):
I told my fiance Corey.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I was like, I really think my competitiveness and ability
to stay calm and really take deep breath, slow my
breathing down, and really getting that competitive mode. It just
took over me. I was silent the entire trip, but
if you know me, I'm a talker. But I was
able to stay silent, really stay focused, take deep breaths,
slow my breathing down, and actually make a perfect shot.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
That was four hundred and twenty yards.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
I didn't know it beforehand because I think my confidence
would have been a little bit lower going into it.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
But afterwards the guide looked.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
At me and he was like, you know, that was
four hundred and twenty yards, right, that's a great shot.
And I had no idea, so yeah, it was.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Well, congrats. If you guys want to see the picture,
jump on Spencer Grave Show. We've got Riley with her
cal elk from her hunt last week. My good friend
Riley is joining me for the next couple of days
while Blair recuperates from having surgery. Yes yesterday a FI
five Grave zero. I need some people to jump on
the phone. Those that know they can, but they trust
(19:07):
a professional to do it instead. This is me maturing
as an adult years ago. Well, I don't know, because
there's probably guys older than me that are like, no, man,
I'll do them as one percent. But over the weekend
I had a pipe burst. So you have the water
that comes from the town or the city and then
it goes to your house. Well, if something happens on
(19:27):
that line, depending on where it is, it's either your
responsibility as the homeowner, or it's the responsibility of the
water company.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
And they always have a line where it kind of marks.
Usually it's where there's a meter. Anything before the meter
they handle anything after. It's all you. Okay. So I
look outside the other day and I go, oh, I
didn't put in a swimming pool. It hasn't rained recently.
It's not all about I go over, I pop the
caps off the mains and I take a look and
(19:56):
they're full of water and I can see just a
little bit of water. So I'm like, there's a hole
in this pipe and now I gotta find it. So
I call the water company. They come down. They shut
off the water, which I could have done, but I
didn't know if it was their responsibility. I don't want
to mess with it, right, So they came down, they
shut down the water, and I'm standing out there with
the guy and I got to hold the light like
(20:16):
I'm his six year old son. And he's like, you
want to hold this light? And I was like, please,
don't yell at me like my dad used to it.
He was like, no problem. So I'm holding the light
and we noticed where the hole is and he goes,
all right, good news is this bad news? Is this
is your responsibility? Now? I could fix it, right. I've
(20:36):
done plenty of pipework before. I used to do irrigation,
Like I know how to do all this stuff. Yeah,
but I don't want to mess with it right because
I feel like that's so important that a pro needs
to come out and.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Do it now.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
I will tell you if this was my house and
my dad, he'd be fixing it. I hate no, i's
a's or butts. My dad is fixing it. He for
some reason, I guess because my granddaddy and how he
grew up. He fixes everything that breaks has an issue.
It doesn't matter if it's a car, it doesn't matter,
(21:10):
if it's our bathroom air conditioning, it doesn't matter what
it is in the house, he is fixing it.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
I've just come to the point and I've realized that
you have people in your life that are experts, and
you just need to trust the experts.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Well, it's their job for a reason, like they that
is what they do for a living.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
So let's let them.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Do their job. That's my It's the worst when they
show up to your house. They're the expert and they're like, cool,
it's gonna be eight thousand dollars, and you're like, oh,
that's good for a lot less. But would it hold up?
Would it be good? Like I don't want to just
patch it?
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Yeah, who knows?
Speaker 2 (21:47):
You could end up fixing yourself and costing what it
costs way more money than if you had just gone
with a professional from the get go.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
So what's the project that you decided to take on?
But then you had to call a pro to come
in and finish five graves zero. Riley is in for Blair,
who had surgery yesterday, so she's at home recuperating. I
have to tell you this story that happened to me yesterday.
I got called old by a teenager and it was fine.
It was fine. So when he called me old, it
(22:15):
was because I waved at him when he let me
get into traffic. Oh okay, so I gave him the
courtesy way.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Well, it turns out that we were going to the
same place. We were going to home depot.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
So when I got out of my truck, he walked
up to me and he goes, oh, dude, I didn't
realize you were that young. I thought you were an
old person. And I said, okay, why and he goes,
because you waved at me when I let you into traffic.
And I say, that's the courtesy wave. I feel like
that doesn't exist anymore. No, you're right, and he said
that's something that old people do.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
So you're old because you did the courtesy wave.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Yeah. So I started to think about it. I'm like, well,
you know what, there's a lot of things that I
would do that people consider old. I'm sure there's a
lot of things that you do that people would consider
something that old people do. A five to five grave zero.
I go to bed at seven thirty eight o'clock. Wow.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
See I don't do that, I know.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
But I get up every day at three o'clock. You
don't have to get up that early, that's true. So
that's something that I think most people would be like, Oh,
that's something senior citizens do.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I would agree.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Now, I find myself curious as to why so many
people think I'm so old. That's kind of the joke
on my social media that I look old or I
act old. I'm very mature for my age as you're what,
I'm twenty five.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Right, and they always think you're like forty forty.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
So still still haven't figured that one out.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
But one thing that I feel like I can do
that usually only older people can do is drive a
stick shift.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Oh, because that's kind of faded out a little bit.
I mean I can drive a stick. I grew up
driving a stick.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Blair her husband bought a Volkswagen Bug just to teach
her how to drive a stick.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
That's sick.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
It's for sale too, if anybody wants to buy it.
But yeah, driving a stick, I think that would make
you kind of an older person. I would agree a
five to five grave zero. Something you do that you
believe old people do. Georgetra t is something on Instagram
that has people scratching their heads and they're trying to
figure out what it means. He posted take me to
Texas with a long stretch road, an oil rig and
(24:14):
a horse. Also a road sign that said next exit
four hundred and twenty five miles. So what does this mean?
Because some news came out last year that George Strait
who played the highest highest ticketed show in American music history.
He played Kyle Field, Texas, A and M, and he
(24:35):
had one hundred and ten thousand tickets sold for that. Wow.
But then Zach Bryan played University of Michigan and he
edged him by like one hundred and forty tickets or something.
So now Zach Bryan's got the record. I don't think
that sits well with the King. I certainly wouldn't let
it sit well with me. Then Morgan Walling comes down.
He goes, Hey, I'm going to play all these stadiums,
(24:56):
and I thought that that's what he was going after
were some of these records Based on how he's setting
up his stage, He's going to one of the end zones. Yeah,
you know, if you were going to sell that many tickets,
you got to be at the fifty yard line in
a circle.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
Right.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Since he's doing that, I'm like, Okay, he's not trying
to break that record. I think George Strait might be
trying to find a place where he can break the
record and take it back from Zach Bryant.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
And I don't blame him. I do the same.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Just make that stage a little bit smaller.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
