Speaker 1 (00:00):
An Australian man has just been certified as the oldest
first time grandfather.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
So do you understand what that means.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
It's the reverse of what you usually highlight the youngest.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Those are always better stories. Twenty eight could you yeah,
you could at twenty eight?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Yeah, fourteen fourteen having won, Yeah, and you had one
at fourteen, totally possible babies having babies.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Let's say again, what this is?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Okay, oldest first time grandparent. Yeah, so not like, oh
he's old, but this is his fifth Like you know,
Papa just passed the one hundred mark and he's got
seventeen grandchildren. No, no, no, no no, no all was first
(00:55):
time grandfather or grandmother, doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
So this means in order for this to be the case.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
The child would be older when they had their first kid, right,
but you maybe two had a child when you were
old later.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Yeah that could be, doesn't have to be.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
But if you're gonna look for someone who's up near
that age, would you say it was?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I didn't. I haven't said yet.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
He said it was a record.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Oh yeah, Oh, we're not going to get that high.
If this is the record, We're not going to get
that high. What's the record on pizza slices? I am
crushing Papa John's right now. As a matter of fact,
I'm going to make room for a third slice.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Thank you Christ.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
What if.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Guy who called in a supervisor? Sorry? The record for
oldest first time grandparent?
Speaker 3 (02:01):
You're saying it with a smile.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Ninety one?
Speaker 5 (02:05):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Ninety one.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Wow, and you became a grandparent for the first time.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
I can see why that's record setting.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Grammy's been buying Chip fil a shake. She ain't, she
ain't close to ninety one. Ninety one amazing first time?
Speaker 2 (02:26):
What would be normal?
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Like?
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Is there? I don't want to say normal, like everybody's sixties.
Maybe is sixties? No, seventies? No for first time grandparent.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
Scott's mom was sixty four when Marley was born.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
We're saying the average age of a first time grandparent
seventy No.
Speaker 6 (02:45):
Yes, I even think sixty four might be skewing a
little bit older. No, I would say dian's late fifties,
early sixties.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
No way.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Yeah, you think that that's normal. Yeah, No, that's babies
have babies.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
If you're sixties your kid had a baby at what
Why do I try to do the math on the parent.
Speaker 6 (03:08):
Now I'm already getting through series you started.
Speaker 5 (03:13):
I'm like, I'm sending this one out.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
No, why that This is where I struggle, Like, if
you get married at thirty, right, you have a kid,
you're thirty two, right, yeah, thirty three? Okay, so your parents, Yeah,
I guess maybe they're in their sixties, late sixties.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
I think late late fifties.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Sixties really yes, so not okay, not in the eighties
or nineties, forty years short of the record.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Okay, so that is so that makes more sense to me.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
So where do you think we can get though on
the spectrum?
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Can we get somebody in there?
Speaker 5 (03:51):
I bet we can get somebody in their seventies who.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Became a first time grandparent in their seventies.
Speaker 6 (03:55):
Yeah, maybe kids waited till they were much told her
to have kids, same thing that you did.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Yeah, No, I waited till I waited till we were older.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Now, but I'm just saying it in the scenario, yes,
you know, yes.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Yeah, sure, it does.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
If you do we rule out areas where we think
those calls will come from.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
We meet like where it's like, well, they're definitely.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Going to be young grandparents in that area.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
But if you start picturing what's waldor the Hey, at
least they're not having cars pash into buildings anymore. No,
but if you start picturing the blackboard, it does get confusing.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
No, it does.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
You're trying to see the ages.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I can't. I can't. I can't make the math work.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Because even you may have even had you, you may
be you may be in your late twenties, but your
parents may have waited forever to have a kid.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Yeah, but it helps if it's old old.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Yeah, they waited and you waited.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yes, yes, but you could be you could have had
a kid and then and they waited career.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
First, right, but think you but your grandparents or you're
in your parents child's grandparent. Your parent maybe could have
even been like a teen mom, but it scared you
so much you didn't have a kid until you were
like in your fifties.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Okay, that's that's waiting.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Well, yeah, because did you see what you did on MTV?
He was embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
That's that. Now, that's waiting.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
But that would put the parent in their late sixties
even if you you know, it's funny.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
In my head, I was like that that well, there
you go. There's eighty. But no, they're in their sixties.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Now.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
If you're say you're fifty one and you have a kid.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
And your parent was fourteen or fifteen.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Yeah, well then sixties six, sixty five yeah, yeah, so you're.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Still in your sixties. So I'm still not getting anywhere.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Seventies should be easy to come by, though, Yeah, eighties
will be pushed.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
The eighties will bess in the area.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Those are the not zips.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Where am I going? Line three? Hi? Elliott the morning?
Speaker 7 (06:05):
Hey, good morning?
Speaker 2 (06:06):

This is Dennis Hey Elliott, Hey, Diana Tyler.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Hey, what can I do for you? Sir?
Speaker 7 (06:14):
I am sixty years old and I've been a grandfather
for three years.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
Fifty seven.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
You were fifty seven when you became a grandfather. Yeah,
how old your kid?
Speaker 7 (06:26):
But my son was twenty six.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
And so you said the baby's three. Sorry, Elliott had
to walk away.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
I looked and I had to get gone.
Speaker 5 (06:39):
I have sauce on my face to sauce all over him.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Not that sauce. She got fired.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
The wait, So your kid was twenty six when they
when got married and had a.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
Kid, Uh, twenty six when they got married? Had a kid,
and then they had a second kid a year and
a half ago.
Speaker 8 (06:58):
I have two grands.
Speaker 2 (07:00):

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Wow, I guess that's not bad, though, I guess that's
not bad.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I mean twenty you know what's weird. You know what's weird.
Twenty six to me seems young to get married. And
I know it's not. I know it's not.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
That's not like babies getting married. But twenty six seems
young to me. Was this me, you were what twenty seven?
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Or twenty eight when I got married twenty seven?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yeah? Yeah, like that's see. And again that seems young
to me.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Did you think that when you were at my wedding?
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Yeah? No I did. What No, No, not that, hey,
thank you sir.
Speaker 8 (07:41):
No.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Just when I hear somebody gets married under the age
of thirty, it seems like, wow, they're really young to
get married.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
But I have felt like that my whole life.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Dating and engaged to Lindsay for five plus years.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Right, So what's the rush I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
It's not like it's not like we met at twenty
six and got married.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
No, no, I understand that. I understand that.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
I didn't know that you thought about speaking your mind.
You chose to forever hold your peace.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, no, no, no, I mean, obviously it worked out.
But you can tell me that for anybody getting married
under thirty is young.
Speaker 6 (08:17):
I agree with that too, but you know, to each
their own. It's like he said they'd been eighty for
a long time.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah. No, Like how old is my oldest kid? Twenty two?
M I don't know. Maybe he is married by twenty six.
I don't know. I would look at that and go, God, damn,
he's young. Line one. Maybe I had a job by then.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
By the way, if you know, like everybody's like, invite
Tony
An Australian man has just been certified as the oldest
first time grandfather.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
So do you understand what that means.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
It's the reverse of what you usually highlight the youngest.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Those are always better stories. Twenty eight could you yeah,
you could at twenty eight?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Yeah, fourteen fourteen having won, Yeah, and you had one
at fourteen, totally possible babies having babies.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Let's say again, what this is?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Okay, oldest first time grandparent. Yeah, so not like, oh
he's old, but this is his fifth Like you know,
Papa just passed the one hundred mark and he's got
seventeen grandchildren. No, no, no, no no, no all was first
(00:55):
time grandfather or grandmother, doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
So this means in order for this to be the case.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
The child would be older when they had their first kid, right,
but you maybe two had a child when you were
old later.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Yeah that could be, doesn't have to be.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
But if you're gonna look for someone who's up near
that age, would you say it was?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I didn't. I haven't said yet.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
He said it was a record.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Oh yeah, Oh, we're not going to get that high.
If this is the record, We're not going to get
that high. What's the record on pizza slices? I am
crushing Papa John's right now. As a matter of fact,
I'm going to make room for a third slice.
Speaker 2 (01:43):

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Ninety one.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Wow, and you became a grandparent for the first time.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Grammy's been buying Chip fil a shake. She ain't, she
ain't close to ninety one. Ninety one amazing first time?
Speaker 2 (02:26):

Speaker 2 (02:28):
Is there? I don't want to say normal, like everybody's sixties.
Maybe is sixties? No, seventies? No for first time grandparent.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
Scott's mom was sixty four when Marley was born.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
We're saying the average age of a first time grandparent
seventy No.
Speaker 6 (02:45):
Yes, I even think sixty four might be skewing a
little bit older. No, I would say dian's late fifties,
early sixties.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
No way.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Yeah, you think that that's normal. Yeah, No, that's babies
have babies.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
If you're sixties your kid had a baby at what
Why do I try to do the math on the parent.
Speaker 6 (03:08):
Now I'm already getting through series you started.
Speaker 5 (03:13):
I'm like, I'm sending this one out.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
No, why that This is where I struggle, Like, if
you get married at thirty, right, you have a kid,
you're thirty two, right, yeah, thirty three? Okay, so your parents, Yeah,
I guess maybe they're in their sixties, late sixties.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
I think late late fifties.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Sixties really yes, so not okay, not in the eighties
or nineties, forty years short of the record.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Okay, so that is so that makes more sense to me.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
So where do you think we can get though on
the spectrum?
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Can we get somebody in there?
Speaker 5 (03:51):
I bet we can get somebody in their seventies who.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Became a first time grandparent in their seventies.
Speaker 6 (03:55):
Yeah, maybe kids waited till they were much told her
to have kids, same thing that you did.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Yeah, No, I waited till I waited till we were older.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Now, but I'm just saying it in the scenario, yes,
you know, yes.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Yeah, sure, it does.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
If you do we rule out areas where we think
those calls will come from.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
We meet like where it's like, well, they're definitely.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Going to be young grandparents in that area.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
But if you start picturing what's waldor the Hey, at
least they're not having cars pash into buildings anymore. No,
but if you start picturing the blackboard, it does get confusing.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
No, it does.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
You're trying to see the ages.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I can't. I can't. I can't make the math work.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Because even you may have even had you, you may
be you may be in your late twenties, but your
parents may have waited forever to have a kid.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Yeah, but it helps if it's old old.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Yeah, they waited and you waited.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yes, yes, but you could be you could have had
a kid and then and they waited career.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
First, right, but think you but your grandparents or you're
in your parents child's grandparent. Your parent maybe could have
even been like a teen mom, but it scared you
so much you didn't have a kid until you were
like in your fifties.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Okay, that's that's waiting.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Well, yeah, because did you see what you did on MTV?
He was embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
That's that. Now, that's waiting.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
But that would put the parent in their late sixties
even if you you know, it's funny.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
In my head, I was like that that well, there
you go. There's eighty. But no, they're in their sixties.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Now.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
If you're say you're fifty one and you have a kid.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
And your parent was fourteen or fifteen.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Yeah, well then sixties six, sixty five yeah, yeah, so you're.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Still in your sixties. So I'm still not getting anywhere.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Seventies should be easy to come by, though, Yeah, eighties
will be pushed.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
The eighties will bess in the area.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Those are the not zips.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Where am I going? Line three? Hi? Elliott the morning?
Speaker 7 (06:05):
Hey, good morning?

for three years.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
Fifty seven.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
You were fifty seven when you became a grandfather. Yeah,

Speaker 7 (06:26):
But my son was twenty six.

not bad.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I mean twenty you know what's weird. You know what's weird.
Twenty six to me seems young to get married. And
I know it's not. I know it's not.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
That's not like babies getting married. But twenty six seems
young to me. Was this me, you were what twenty seven?
Speaker 5 (07:24):

Speaker 3 (07:24):
Or twenty eight when I got married twenty seven?
Speaker 2 (07:27):

Yeah? No I did. What No, No, not that, hey,
thank you sir.
Speaker 8 (07:41):
No.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Just when I hear somebody gets married under the age
of thirty, it seems like, wow, they're really young to
get married.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
But I have felt like that my whole life.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Dating and engaged to Lindsay for five plus years.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Right, So what's the rush I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
It's not like it's not like we met at twenty
six and got married.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
No, no, I understand that. I understand that.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
I didn't know that you thought about speaking your mind.
You chose to forever hold your peace.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, no, no, no, I mean, obviously it worked out.
But you can tell me that for anybody getting married
under thirty is young.
Speaker 6 (08:17):
I agree with that too, but you know, to each
their own. It's like he said they'd been eighty for
a long time.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah. No, Like how old is my oldest kid? Twenty two?
M I don't know. Maybe he is married by twenty six.
I don't know. I would look at that and go, God, damn,
he's young. Line one. Maybe I had a job by then.
