Wait, you lay in bed for three hours after you wake up? Of course I do. I've got nothing else to do. But you don't even have a cell phone. So you just look at the ceiling? Well, no. I'm glad you brought up cell phone. Phones will not work with me.

My wife has bought me. She bought me the flip phone first. I have that now. Yeah, that will work. I have it right here. If you bought another one, that wouldn't work. Then they bought the last one, which was $1,000, okay. They tried to make it idiot proof, okay, and they showed me how to use it and said,

hey, said this button right here. I said, yep, they said, that's the home button, press it. So I pressed it. It brought up the menu. And they said, hey, now, all you need to do is hit menu and bring it up, and there will be a phone list. Press it, and then here's all the names of the people that I need to be, you know, call it.

and then all you do is touch it and it calls them. Didn't work. It wouldn't work. What about the people that you don't have their phone numbers? Huh. And you want to call them? Well, hey. What do you do?

If I don't have their phone numbers, I don't need to call them. That's a good point. No new friends for you, right? Hey, I'm like Yogi Bear. I'm smarter than having a phone. He just can't work a phone. But hey, no, it wouldn't work. All it would do would say, Darling, Darling, Darling, Darling, Darling, Darling.

Well, that means you'll get somebody on. That means they just weren't, they didn't want to talk to you. It's a waste of time. But anyway, nobody talks on the phone today. No. But if you would have, if you would have had a phone and you would have called last night, you would have known we weren't at home. I know.

Where was y'all in the way? The case is something about a ballgame. We're at our grandson's ball game. What kind of ball game? Baseball. Baseball. Baseball. They don't even know how to run the bases.

They don't know how to, they don't even know what a batting ball is. No, at his age, he's eight, so he does. It sounds like a comedy hour to me. Oh, boy. I'll send you the schedule, and you can come out there. You're going to go to a... Hey, I will.

Of course you will. Well, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah, if y'all hadn't noticed, we've got guests. Yes, welcome back to the duck call room. Me and Si. This day joins us. And then Al's wife, Lisa, joins us. And we've got some questions about that.

How's it marriage to a guy that always wears a vest? Well, it's perfect. Because then he covers up his work. We talk about Al's Vest a lot on this podcast. And we know you listen to our podcast all the time, Miss Lisa. All the time. You're shaking her head. You said what?

This is... That would be zero probably. This is the kids podcast. You can't lie on this. Yeah. Yeah, you can't lie on Size podcast. That's against the rules. Here's my question.

What have you ladies been up to? Well, you haven't even introduced to. shit. I did. He did. Oh, he did? Okay. It's a great intro. I'm just used to you doing it. He took it away from me. I said, go, man. Okay, well, I'm glad to be here. We're always glad to have you. You're one of our favorite guests, because more people listen when you're here. Do you think I'm funny?

I think you're hilarious. I think I'm funny too. Everybody's funny around here. Well. This old family is funny. Well, I told the world a long time ago, my family is funny, and nobody would listen to me. And then one day somebody said, they're funny. That's right. Y'all were just weird before.

Yeah. And then everybody realized, no, that's actually funny. And we actually got to have a show because we were funny, not just weird. Right? Probably a little bit of both. I would figure. A little of beau. But what have you been up to, Ms. Kay?

Since we last saw you. Last time you were here with Corey. Yes. That was fun. My health is better, but I need to lose a little weight, but, you know, I'm working on it. That's all I say about that. But that's according to the doctor. Right.

Okay. Yeah. And Phil. And the husband. Okay. That's their two opinions. Yeah. What do they know, right?

Yeah, what do they know? Who is withering away and, you know, if a wind came through, it would blow him over. He's trying to look like you, sir. Yeah. Phil is doing his best to look like you. Is Phil getting skinny? Yeah. Is he? Is he?

Yeah. It's embarrassing. Old age to do that, too. You know what happened? I weigh more than he. Does. Here's what is not fair. The older women get, the bigger their butt gets.

And the older men get, y'all disappears. Yeah. Why can't it be the other way around? I think that has to. do with childbearing. Well, might. Okay. I really do.

Okay. That's just my humble opinion. Yeah, for me, but in my 50s and in her 70s, we're not childbearing anymore, so we need to just lose that rear end. Yeah, but I don't know. Well, here's my, here's what I'm going to say, and you listen. I'm staying quiet. I'm actually speechless. Well, let me speak for you.

Who cooks you the best meals ever? Ever? That'd be the lady talking right now. Okay. What does all those big meals eventually come to? Weight game? Thank you. Okay, I'm nervous.

Oh, man. I saw you got a... Hey, I walk around after I take a shower. It's a family show. Because I've never had a big belly before. And my wife said, would you stop it? I said, well, look, hey, this is new to me. You're just holding your belly walking around the house?

Yeah, because I've never had a little. I'm not ever dropping by your house. The one time I dropped to his house to check on for COVID, he lied to me a couple of times. And he was basically sitting on the couch and his underwear. JD actually come in and was scared after he said, are you doing all right? And I said, yeah.

And he said, okay, I need left. He's going to. I don't blame me. Don't blame me. About you, man. Well, Ms. Lisa, we're glad to have you on the show. Thank you. I always love a first-time guest.

What have you been up to? Well, writing a book. Writing a book. Oh, I forgot to say that. Yeah. Kay and I wrote it together. It's okay, Kay, I can remember. And it's called Sister Roar, and it's about women in community together and encouraging one another and helping each other through our struggles and finding your roar.

Which Kay and I have big roars. Right. All right. I have some of them turned into a bunch of book writers. Yeah, like he didn't have a write one Well, hey, hey, look I tried to not even do it But hey, they just kept on saying

Hey, you need to, you know It was the guy that was, you know He just kept up. I don't know Every time I'd go to New York The guy would sit down beside me and said, hey, when are you going to write your book? And I'd say, my life, you know, ain't worth writing down

And he said, well, hey, just trust me You got a couple stories Then he got into the one thing that got my attention money. He said, Willie wrote the first one, I think. He went to number one and made him a bunch of money. Yeah, it's obvious.

Phil wrote the other one, okay, and it went to number one, and it made him a bunch of money. And then the guy kept saying, okay, I'll guarantee you this. If you'll write your book, Uncle's Eye, it will make more money than Willie Anfield. Did it? That's why I wrote the book. Did you go?

I don't know. I wrote the book. Well, it might be a bunch of money. He hadn't checked. what the status was. I don't know what the status is on the hall. Fields probably went ahead of me because he's wrote four or five now. But let me tell you something.

What do you think his money went? To the land? Buy more land. Well, hey, that's one thing that ain't going to go away unless the flood gets it, which that happens quite often over there on his land. He loves it. Yeah. Even in the water.

He just had a down made and a three-inch rain blew it out. Oh, yeah. And so we're so happy. And then he bought two more pipes and put it back in there, put three pipes in there to keep, you know, where it's right. You know what those pipes cost. Oh, yeah, money. I'm curious. Yeah.

Well, I believe, I don't know if it's three together, just won $7,000. For a pipe? Yeah, you want to buy one of those, John David? That check would bounce, Ms. Kay. That's one. Okay. Okay. And we have to have three.

Yeah, multiply it. Okay. Yeah, there you go. We got land problems. But you know what? I think it should be, Phil buys one. Jace buys one and Willie buys one. Well, that has happy fair.

You would think that, okay. What happened to side buying one? Nick's up. He don't put his money in land. I don't know what he puts his money in. I bought seven acres, but I'm fixed to sell it. He puts his money in Christine's hand. Where?

Right there by my house. I had to have another house built so much. Oh, I know what you're talking about. My son's come down and lived in Monroe for a while as a Army recruiter. That's awesome. And then he decided he didn't like Louisiana, didn't he? Too hot. He went to the snow country, Idaho.

Oh, yeah, that's a country. Him and his wife and his kids, okay. Well, at least they didn't live with their kids. Well, I shouldn't say kids because I call them destructos. Because they destroy everything they touch. I love them, but hey, they still are. They're destructos. That's awesome.

Miss Lisa, when's this book coming out? Sister Roar. Today? Today. So when you're listening to this, this book is out. You said it's all about community of sisters. I know my wife's going on

Women's Retreat this weekend and she's got her girls and my wife needs a lot of help dealing with me all the time. So I'm going to get her a copy of this book. And we're going to take a quick break and we'll probably talk about this book more right after this.

All right, look, springtime is here. It's warming up. You know what that means? That means more outside cooking. And y'all know we love to eat beef around here. And that's what because of our friends over at Triedells beef makes such a good product, baby. Ain't it good?

It's so good. Our friend, Sal Robertson would say, buy on the grill! Look, before we got Triedels, getting ready for a cookout, man, somebody had to run the grocery store, do all the things, grab whatever was left in case you were late in the day. And you never really know where that beef comes from. But with Triedales beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way.

Triedales comes from a. family ranch out in Texas. They're a fifth generation American ranch. So they've been at it for a while. Now look, the beef comes straight from their ranch and other ranchers they work with who raise cattle the same way. Their steaks are properly aged and shipped straight from the ranch to your door. We threw a couple of ribbys on the grill. Look, salt, pepper, garlic, hot fire, that's all you need. Look, because I'll tell you what, when the beef comes from people who raise cattle for a living, you can taste the difference. The tenderness and the flavor are fantastic. So if you're stocking, the freezer for grilling season.

Go check out Tritails Beef. I know in size case Christine loves it, which is just a She doesn't eat meat. She isn't a big meat easier, folks. Yeah. Just go to trybeef.com slash. That's trybeef.com slash. Support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. All right, we're back.

And we're back for the second segment. We don't do that, do we? Martin's better at this than me. Anyways, welcome back. Miss Kay, Miss Lisa, in the house today. book, Sister Roar. You have the, you have, what are they called? You have a group of sisters.

Remember, they started out the muffins. The muffins. The muffins group. And I started like 30, 35 years ago. Did you ever cook muffins? Yes, I did cook muffins, sir. That's why it was named the muffins. Well, I just, I'm checking.

My girls, because I brought some muffins and we were trying to name a name for our group. So we called it the muffins. There you go. The muffins. and they've been through many, many muffins. And we started out, and this is really true. One of the girls had a little dress shop. It was in Calhoun.

So you know it wasn't very big if it's in Calhoun, right? And so it went straight back. And the back room was just for things that they didn't want or whatever. So we literally sat on the floor. It was five or six of us, five, I think, brought our drinks, set on the floor, had our bibles, and we started the group, just like that. Then we got tired of the house, so we moved outside under the tree. We had a picnic table, and we did it out there.

Well, one of the problems was, do you know how loud people make their trucks and cars? In Calhoun, no. It's so stupid. It's like showing off your muffler. What is that about? Immaturity, I think. So we Probably

We took that as much Yeah, true We took that as long as we can take it Rednecks and immaturity Okay I'm just laughing because somebody right now Is driving down the road listen to this And they just got a little insecure

About their super loud Yeah, look Hey buddy, I don't care Just drive it not If you see people outside Doing something Turn it down Drive a different way around

Post for a little bit Yeah, because, I mean, it was so cool and so nice. I loved it. If we could have done something with the mufflers. That's the muffler. Your husband was in it at that one time. My husband was in a lot of things at one time. No, no.

He bought a brand new truck, or I should say, you bought him a brand new truck, and he got under it with a big nail and a hammer, and just started knocking holes in a brand new muffler on a brand new truck, until it sounded right. Thank you for that. all those great memories, I. Well, hey, you live with a man.

Hey, I'm trying to forget that. Hey, you're a pioneer man. Oh, you can't forget that, okay. I know. If I keep doing stuff like this with you, I'll never forget it. But after all, you remember when you call me your real sister? Hey, you still are.

I know. And they said, well, isn't he your sister, brother-in-law? And I said, nope, he's my brother. He's already made me his sister, so he's my brother. I've been with him since he was, what, 11 years old. Been a long time. Yep, so we're just... He's been working on me to try to fatten me up

ever since we met. Well, you're getting there. All I've got is the belly. That could be from Jay Stone feeding you. Well, no, hey. Now, you're talking about somebody that come into the, become a chef overnight, but really, I don't know how long it took him,

but he has turned into a fantastic cook. Even your brother said it. Yeah, especially meat products. Yep, you're right. And I'm working on that because I said, Jay, I love your meat products, but we got to have sides. You have to have a vegetable and maybe a salad. He's low-carb.

Well, you've got to turn that over to the women, though. Yeah. He's got his hand full with the grill. Okay, but this line me up on, you know, let's have, this is what we're going to have for sides. And then I always want to have rolls And he said, you don't need white bread I said I'll get dark bread

Dark bread What about that? He was very serious about not letting me Eat white bread when I was losing weight Well, no, no Yeah What is it with bread? I didn't think bread was a

Oh yeah Well, I won't feel to gain weight back I don't want to have it Bigger as a blimp You got something inside Like a tapeworm or something though I probably have He was born with it.

Yeah, was he? I probably have. Believe me, I saw him. You should see him like I did at 11 years old. He's the skinniest boy I ever saw. And he's got those bird legs like Phil. Oh, yeah. Willie's got those bird legs.

Mm-hmm. Oh, does he? Yeah, he does. It gets worse with age. Well, you are to see Phil. I wanted into being a commercial with those bird legs in his new Tommy John underwear. Oh, boy.

Hey, I didn't know he's wearing I don't get him fired up. Say, good grief. Hey. I told him he was the most comfortable underwear ever. Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a commercial break. Although he does love him. It just happened.

I didn't, you know, I didn't know feel warm. Yeah. They're all comfortable. Brothers are alike. Yeah. Well, Saw, someday he had to get out of them tidy wetties. Oh, boy. Hey, there you go.

So did so. We're really peeling back the curtain here on on a lot of stuff and Phil's Tidy Whitey's. Look, we're here to laugh, aren't we? We are. We are here to laugh. For both a...

Since this is the opening day of your book, how long did it take y'all to write it? Great question. You know, I can't remember stuff like. As least, she's young. About three months. About three months?

We went back and forth with the writer about three months. That ain't bad. Yeah, that ain't bad. Not bad at all. sisterhood. Yeah. It's an important thing.

It is. I don't know much about it. I know about brotherhood. If you read the book, you'll know. No more. It's all you have to do. My wife tells me a lot of things that I need to know. What about, are you going to read it?

Yeah. So you can't lie. You can't lie now. Well, no, no. Because Sadie wrote a good one. Oh, yeah. I read her. I read her.

Yeah, she's fantastic. So you'll love it. I was surprised, okay, at how well. Well, let's see. How do I say this? I was amazed at the Robertsons, how smart they really are. There's some wisdom down here in West Monroe, Louisiana. Yeah, so there's a couple of us, maybe me and you, though,

that may not be highly educated, but we got it automatic, right? Common sense No, no, yeah, because hey, common sense has been you know, they've threw it out the window. But we didn't. The human race. We didn't, though.

That's yeah. But Cy is a steel trap now. He'll tell you about something he watched on PBS 17 years ago and he won't miss a single fact. That's amazing. No, I actually got tickled. I didn't even know what was going on.

We'd be saying stuff on the podcast. I didn't know that a computer guru over here, everything I talked about, he was Googling. I never believed it, and it's always right. He didn't believe it. When he was Googling it, I'd say something, he'd say, Martin said, I don't know when you're going to finally catch on, JD. He don't miss.

The man don't miss. He's smarter than he looks. Yeah. But common sense really has been thrown out. Okay. That's right. I mean, I think the computers did it. What do you think?

Well, that, because it takes a lot of our kids. you know, the mom and dads are turning the kids over and making a computer their babysitter. Okay, uh-oh. Which is bad, bad to do. No, they should have been like us, and we were on our own after school, and I'm telling you, I climbed trees.

I stole pecans from the neighbor's tree and their pears and their apples. You know, I mean, that's fruit. It was open. game. Remember, you and Phil got those peach trees y'all hit, didn't you? Because I drove the getaway car in one of those. A shoot of limitations over on that. Oh, hopefully.

If they're not, he's going to jail soon for all the stuff he's set on this. Okay. Well, I drove the getaway card on some of those peach recovery. The getaway cart? Car. I thought you said, card. I said we were a horse and wagon back then, huh? I'm just kidding.

I'm sorry. I did have a pony. A Shetland pony named Tony. A Shetland, hey, that rhymes. A Shetland pony named Tony. I didn't even know that until I got a crowd of like $5,000. And I told that story. And then I dawned on me.

I said, hey, I had a Shetland pony named Tony. It rhymes. And, of course, they really laughed then because I just got it. Am I imagining things here? Don't you have a picture? She's a real cowgirl. Yeah. With Tony.

Well, that's when I was, I was. In a cowboy out-cow girl outfit. With her hat. With her hat. Yeah, okay. But you know who I was when I was doing that? Annie Oakley. Okay.

I used to watch her shows, and I just, I wanted to be her. So with Connie the Shetland Pony, I was Annie Oakley. I love this. I could listen to Cy and Kay tell stories from their childhood all day. But we're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back. So when I was growing up, I wore the hat and the boots, but I wrote a moped. A moped? Yeah.

I'm afraid of horses, so I'm more of a moped. See, I didn't even know what that was until recently. I would have said Dale Evans when you said I was, you know, instead of I'd have Dale Evans. Who's, Roy Rogers. Roy Rogers' wife, you didn't know that? Dale Evans? Yeah, that was Roy Rogers. You've heard of them.

And his horse was named Trigger. I'm learning stuff right now. Just like Willie Nelson's guitar is named Trigger. I didn't know that. I'm looking it up. Google it. Google it, John Davis. It's got to be right.

It's always right. You got to think about this. The man has played a guitar. It's right. So long, just from picking the strings with a pick, he's got to hold that big around under the strings. that he actually I'm looking at it right now

and it's got a sound okay that guitar's got a sound that no other guitar's got that's why he don't ever he's only one he plays did you name your guitar no

well you were a big country music singer well hey look I didn't can't play it you know maybe if I can learn to play it why couldn't they teach you I thought you went for lessons No, I have, but I'd always said that was a gift from the Almighty. Yeah.

And the more I tried to play it, the more I said, oh yeah, he's looking down laughing right now and said, I'm not going to give you that. But you've got a great voice. Well, I wish somebody when they told me that when I was young had put me in a music class where they were to talk to be music. Yeah. That and math. Because

Oh, you didn't put you in math class? Well, because guess what? Music ain't nothing but math. I've never heard of that. Jack, what a professional musician. Oh, I will. Ask him if music is nothing but math. That's all it is.

Maybe that's why I can't play anything. I did take two years of piano, and I learned it's four one, two, three, four notes there that you start out. That's all I remember. It's one, two, three, four. Boom. That's why all the people you hear are saying music,

they always start off saying, one, two, three, four. That's it. That's right. I learned that, didn't I? It's music. I'm telling you. Math is music.

I googled it again. I'm going to stop. Learning music improves math skills because at some level, all music is math. Can you believe it? What do you not know, sir? Tell me something. No, no, I'm just saying.

Okay. You've dabbled in everything. No, no. That's why I, look. He's a dabbler. I don't know who ever come up with the Golden 60s deal. The Golden 60s. Yeah.

At church. There's nothing golden about getting old. The Golden 60s is a group at church, everybody listening, of 60 years and older. But I'm just saying, you know, music is golden. Okay. Anybody to me in my, you know, My hat's off to anybody that plays music. Oh, I love it too, so.

And your brother, he sits there and slams hitting the dash of a car, of a truck, till he tears it up, beating on the music beat. No, no. How many times has he broke the whole thing? He's broke? Yeah, he's broken. Beating on it to the beat of the music. Martin and him always tell me he's a noise maker,

Tell them about me. What if I knew how to play the drums? Oh, thank goodness you don't, I think. I've seen you with a bell, so I'm really nervous about you. I'm serious, okay. Look. Oh, yeah. I kind of like.

We didn't get you lessons. Look, I like a good drummer. I love a good drummer. I really do. Well, they're the ones that keep everybody in going. Yeah. I love a good drummer. and a good...

That's where your melody, harmony, and rhythm and all that junk come into play. Well, J.D. is from a family of musicians? Didn't get a lick of it either. It always made me sad. No, no, no. That's why I'm saying. It's a God-given gift. My little cousin literally was like, I think I'm going to learn the piano today and did. And he's amazing at it. And he, like, taught himself the guitar.

And he's left-handed, so he plays it like upside down. Well, you know, Jay. And then I can't even, like, I can't even play a size desk. I couldn't play a kazoo the thing. All you do is blowing it. No, no, I'm serious. We should start a band. No, no, that's why, yes, you know.

You'd be singing. He's a frontman. He's been a front man from way back. Oh, I'm a good entertainer. He didn't know it until he was. Well, yeah, you are. I wish I could learn how to play the guitar, because, hey, I could entertain you forever.

Yeah, but you'd be funnier if you did it wrong. Well, no, no. Oh, that would be happening. You entertain us forever with your stories, though. Yeah, but just think about putting a little good guitar riff with it. Just get you a buddy and he can do that. It was like the Duck Dynasty every time you met a joke and it went, is that what you're wanting?

No, no, hey, just whatever. I'm going to follow you around with a guitar and learn one string and it's just going to be p p'oom every time you make a joke. No, no. No, you had to play. Oh, I got to do it full. Music is wow. Okay.

You know, it really is. I just, you know. How do you like the hip hop? It's music. There's some of genres of it that I don't care for. Okay, I'm not a rap man. Well, I can tell that. All you're doing is you're talking,

and you're either talking slow or you're talking fast or a mixture. Most of them you can't understand the word they're saying. Well, some of them tell a story, okay. But, you know, it's just, yeah. And some of them tell a bad story. Oh, yeah, yeah. Some of them start off telling bad stories, then they drop Jesus' King,

which is a really cool album by Kanye West. Then he gets real weird after that. You never know where they're going. You should listen to that. I'm going to show you that sometime. Oh, I'd enjoy it probably. Oh, I know you would. Especially if Jesus is involved.

Jesus is involved. He's in. I wish I could sing. I can't sing a lick. I wish I would have had training with it when I was young. That actually is right. You barely could buy groceries when y'all weren't young. I was there.

No, no, no, but I'm saying like Missy, okay, Jason's why. Yes. I keep telling her, hey, don't worry about hitting the notes, baby. One time I would just love to hear you just let it rip. So I let it rip every time he sings. No, no, because I'm serious. Because Jason said sometimes she just starts singing at the house. You literally, she could try her a glass if she just went ahead and let it rip.

Cy, tell him about a recorder, a hidden recorder, and he could get it. Well, I'll have to tell him that if I think about it. Yeah. Because I would love to hear her just really let it go. In other words, throw her hair back and let her rip potato chip. Because that woman can sing. I know that. But I kind of think God gave her that voice when she was born.

And look at her parents. They're singers. Yeah, and her brother is too. And you know Jason can sing a little. Okay, I know y'all are interested in my family out there and this bunch too. Willie Robertson, okay, let me tell you how he got rich on the school bus as a boy growing up. How could anybody get rich? Well, let me tell you how he did it.

His older brother, Alan, Lisa's husband, he had all these, they were VCS. You remember those, those square things? Eight tracks. Eight tracks. Eight tracks. So Willie memorized the whole thing. And I know one of them was Jukebox hero.

Jukebox hero. Sorry. And then. I can't sing. And then. And so he memorized it And he could sing. He had a good voice. So what he did was he told

the bus people, he said, every day I'll sing you a song off that track, that eight track thing. And he's off of that and so he did that mostly that jukebox hero, but whatever other songs were on

there. Okay, he said, all it cost you, this was the bust, is the students, 25 cents. 25 cents and you can hear me sing every day that boy came home with his pockets so full of quarters A lot of jingle boys Going to school the same kids paid it coming back from school

That was about the time he started his Little what do they call it Refreshment Stand Entrepreneur Yeah he started that in school Every time I've heard that story is more like a drug dealing of candy situation. Like he was walking around with it in pockets and hiding it.

Oh, he did. Well, he got me to buy all this stuff. He said he had something going on with it. And I didn't think twice about it. I'll let him get the stuff because I knew he wasn't going to eat it all. I thought he was just going to share with the poor kids. I should have known it was a money-seeking thing he did here. Moneymaker.

And so he gets up there and the principal finally calls me and said, I hate to tell you, Ms. Robertson, but we're going to have to shut. Willie Jess Robertson down And I said, what is he doing? He said, he shut our whole What stand is that? The concession stand? Yeah.

He shut it down. And everybody's buying from him and nobody's buying it from the school. We do something with the money for that. We have to have it. So he can't, don't buy any more candy, don't buy any more chips, anything. Because he's shut down.

He's always been a pretty good business man. So see, he's just trying making money at every turn, but then he gets shut down. Those are two stories, and now I'm done with my stories. And that helps. He's told that story. He tells both of those whenever he speaks. Or he used to. And I laugh every time.

Because he said, he said you were in on it, though. He said you took 10% off the top. Oh, no. That's what he said. Well, if I needed a few dollars, I'd sure take it. He's my son. I feed him and everything else. She didn't.

She wasn't on it. No, that was just little loans. Little loans. He said you were his first agent. You were taking just 10% right off the line. I'm not smart enough to be an agent. Oh, that's funny. Willie Robertson.

That's a lot to do. What is it? What was the word I was trying to think of? What? Entrepreneur. Don't let me try that. I can't spell it, but I can't say it wrong. Well, I can't.

I can't produce. Any words over two or three syllables. Correct. I will just butcher them. Well, this podcast is pretty easy. We keep it simple. But I do want to ask Ms. Lisa, because Jay Stone is on this podcast all the time, and we love Jay. Jay is one of Sy's best friends in the world.

Lisa is Jay's mother-in-law, and Jay's kind of scary, so I just want to, I want to know what, he probably won't watch this. So we got that going for us. So you can say whatever you want about Jay right now or tell us a story or anything you got. All right. So the first one that comes to mind is during the heyday of the show, Duck Dynasty, we used to have scary people that, you know, came through our neighborhood all the time. And so if somebody spotted them, they would get on the phone and call everybody in our little area. So I was out somewhere.

I come in. All the lights in the house are off. And all the lights outside are on. I'm like, what in the world? Where is everybody? All the cars are there. What is the deal? So I walk in the house and right beside the door is a gun.

So I keep walking. I walk into the kitchen. Another gun. Walk into the dining room. A gun. I'm like, what is happening here? I said, turn some lights. So I start flipping on lights.

Jay goes, no, no, no, no, no. No, if you turn the inside lights on, whoever's outside can see us. But if we only have the outside lights on, we can see them, but they can't see us. I'm like, what is it? He said, there's somebody in the neighborhood. So every time that somebody would call and say,

you know, there's a scary person in there. we saw somebody down the road or whatever, then we go lights out in the house and lights on outside and guns at every door. Yeah. Moral of the story, don't mess with Jay Stone. Well, so one day a pizza guy comes to deliver a pizza. Poor guy. And this was after we got the gate and he didn't have the gate.

And he didn't have the gate code. And he was not driving the best of cars, and he did not look the best himself. And so, you know, just a few days before, we had had one of these people in the neighborhood. So he drives up to the house, and he's just going to ask how he can get through the gate. So he comes to the door, he rings the doorbell, and Jay answers the door. And Jay has a stare about him. But it didn't hurt any that he's standing. in there with a pistol in his hand.

And so the guy goes, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You know, he just starts backing up from Jay. He said, I just need to get through the gate. I got to deliver a pizza. So, you know, Jay's like, who is it for? So he interrogates the guy, you know, and finally gives him the code. But, um. Pizza was really good, by the way.

It was just a little cold when it finally got to me. We are not behind the gate. For nothing. But we don't need to be behind the gate, because we have Jay Stone as the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper. That's exactly right. Yeah, for a while there, there were people just showing up at, my parents live at the very end of the street, but they were showing up to Willie's house and all that. There would always be a text.

Some guys coming up to doors, but it's always good to know Jay Stone's got your back. Oh, you got to understand. He's armed and dangerous. Some of the family has had death threats. Yeah. True. So that's why all this is going down. Mm-hmm.

Well, and he's a little paranoid. Well, and, you know, for those that have never been on a big TV show like me, we don't, like, understand that we, everybody that watched Doug Dynasty thought they knew Willie and Jay. So, like, hey, they're super friendly guys, and they are, but you go up to them at their house and they're not expecting. We don't know who you are. And so it was a little nerve-wracking. Well, when you think about it, okay, you come into someone's living room. Every Wednesday night for years.

Mm-hmm. Well, they think they know you. Yeah. Okay. And they want to, you know, be with you. So, yeah, it's, you know, but they don't know about the other stuff, okay? You've got fanatics out there, okay, that don't believe what we believe and, or, you know. Yeah.

Sometimes it gets weird, but that's why we got, my favorite stone thing one time. We were talking about, like, I forget what it was. was. He's like, hey, they shut down the grid. We'll be fine. He was talking about, we'll just start with the squirrels in the neighborhood and we'll eat the fish next. And I was like, it's actually true.

And if it all does go down, I'm just walking up to Stone's house and be like, just tell me what to do, sir. I'm just going to work for you. Hey, William Jr. wrote a song about that. Country boy can survive. So we see John David coming to our house one day. And this was after John David had been sick.

Mm-hmm. And he's walking out towards Jay's workout facility. The House of Pain. And me and Al are sitting there going, don't do it, J.D. Don't do it. Don't go there. But he did anyway. I did it.

You look great, J.D. I've gained a little back. I'm on a maintaining stretch of life right now. I don't have a lot of – I'm hoping once the kids get out of school, I can start working out a lot more. Some people, if they didn't see the transformation that Jay made. Oh, yeah. They wouldn't even know him. Yeah.

Because Jay went from about, what, 2.40? Yeah. At least 240? To a lean, mean, feteen. Yeah. That's a big. He's too skinny. He's got those bird legs like y'all do.

Well, no, no. I will say that when we used to go eat Mexican together back when we were both fat, that was still fun, but now he just wants to, like, box. That's not as fun. Box your ears is what he. he wants to do. Now he just likes to hit people. But that's awesome. So look, on this show

Ms. Lisa, on our last segment we have emails. People have emailed in. I have saved some just for you too because I think y'all have some wisdom. We're going to take them right. And we'll be right back with some hello at duck call room emails. All right, and we're back with a hello

at duck call room emails. I spent a lot of time this morning. And we got a lot of good ones, so I got some saved for next time. But since we have Ms. Kay and Ms. Lisa in the building, I've got a couple I think are going to be great just for them to listen. I'm not going to

use this guy's name because the subject line of the email is terrified of marriage. Whoa. Big one. So he says he loves his girlfriend. She's his best friend. He's never dated anybody else. He's 25 and he's been with her for seven years.

Probably time for something else called marriage. But I'm terrified of marriage, not just the idea of myself getting married, but even when I go to other people's weddings, I get anxiety that's tough to get through. I'm not sure what the reasoning is, to be honest, but know that my typical fear in any decision is the fear of being stuck, stuck in a bad job, stuck in a bad place or financial situation, and I feel like marriage could be the ultimate stuck. Again, I love her. I've never dated anyone else, and don't plan to, but I can't seem to make the final commitment. Any advice?

Ms. Lisa's got advice, I know. She's... Miss Lisa does a lot of people. premarital counseling. So that's why I said a perfect email for today. I'd say your problem is commitment. That's exactly what I was going to say. You do not want to commit to a job. You don't want to commit to a relationship. You don't want to commit to a marriage. But are you committed to God? Because if you are committed to God, then the others will fall into line, I believe. God created us. You don't have to be married. But he did create. But he did create. us to procreate. So in order to do that, we need to be married. That is not a real, it's not the way, it's not the norm right now. You know, people are living together and people are having babies

out of wedlock, but that is not God's way. God's way is for one man to marry one woman and to stay that way their whole life. And then from there, that is. where they have their children and that's where they propagate the earth but um in today's times that's not what we're doing and again i truly believe it's because people are afraid of commitment um and i think that if we work on that relationship with christ first and where he is our main focus that he will take that anxiety he will take all the fears that you have and and he will make it to where you may still be a little bit afraid of something

but you're going to go for it you know the job you always wanted and you're just afraid to say yes to go for it you know there may be something out there different later if this is the girl that you truly love and you want to spend the rest of your life with commit to her

put a ring on her finger that's exactly right look we're all going to make mistakes and in this marriage you are going to make mistakes. She is going to make mistakes. You're going to hurt her. She's going to hurt you. But in the end, I'm telling you, I would not still be alive if I had not married Marshall Allen Robertson on November the 9th, 1984. Because he is my steering column. He is the one that keeps me in perspective. And I know that women, do that for men too.

So, you know, I say, look, work on your relationship with Christ first and then work on that relationship with the woman that you want to live the rest of your life with.

I add this, okay. She hit it on the head when she said, okay, you're scared of commitment. Okay, and with commitment comes another word, responsibility. Mm-hmm. Okay.

And that's, in any relationship. Okay. You've got to have both. You've got to commit to it. Okay, that's like if you ask any businessman, you know, he'll tell you, you've got to be committed and responsible to run a business and run it and be successful. That's the same thing in relationship.

And I'll just add to what Lisa said, okay. That's God's way. Okay. And in my personal opinion, and it's just my opinion. Okay. That's why America right now is in bad, bad shape. Okay. We're not doing it God's way.

Okay. We're not being committed. We're not being responsible. There's too many kids that don't have a father and a mother. Both are important. Okay. Lisa said, Al's her steering. Keeps her in it.

Same thing with the woman. Okay. Mom is important. important, father and mother, dad and mom. Okay, it takes both. That was God's way under the umbrella of marriage. Okay, you got to be responsible, you've got to be committed to what you're going to do. Well, I can add something.

Okay. The first time I saw Phil at our high school, I was 14, he was 15. And you know what I said? The first time I saw him, that's the man I'm going to marry. And it doesn't hurt that he's the quarterback of the football team. He's the pitcher on the baseball team. He throws a javelin on the track and field. And six foot and handsome.

And six foot over six foot and handsome. And I like that he hunted and fished because my daddy hunted and fished. I lost my daddy when I'm 14. My mom and I were dating at the same time, which is weird, very weird. But I'm telling you, I knew it. And so when we started dating, it was great. And, you know, I didn't let him know that I wanted, you know, I had to play it cool. But then he breaks up with me for hunting season because he didn't have time to date during hunting season.

So we'd have to break up. Well, of course, that was crushing. and then I thought, well, my daddy hunting fish, but, you know, he didn't leave my mama to it, but whatever. So then, so after duck's eating season, he still ain't there. And I'm saying, well, I don't know what's up. But, you know, back then the man had to ask first, so that's the way it was. So then in May of the first year, when I was a freshman, my daddy died.

He was 49, and I was 14. and all my classmates came to the funeral, and I saw Phil. He was there. And when he looked at me, and I was sitting there on the front row, he said, I want to talk to you after, and I said, I just nodded. So when we got back together, then it was never left before. And counting dating and marriage, we've been together 64 years. Thank you, John David.

Thank you. That deserves that. And was it easy? Nope. The first 10 years when he got to tech, he decided he didn't like those words you said. Responsibility. Ain't Nancy told him about responsibility.

And what was your other word? Commitment. Oh, that just went. And then he went to play with, I mean, he had to stay in the dorms with all the unmarried football players. Well, that was not good at all. So we had a bad time.

I had a bad time. He had a sinful time for 10 years. So everybody said, you need to leave him. You need to leave him. You need to leave him. You got a biblical reason. Leave him. Everybody feels family.

My family, every friend I had, everybody said, leaving. Everybody. I said, no, I told my grandma, speaking of people, I had my grandma, see, because when my daddy died and mama was dating, where she was busy, and I had my grandma. She said, I want you to know, little girl. It's one man and one woman for life, and you will not ever say the D word, which is divorce.

She said, don't say that. You will fight for that marriage, and that's the way it'll be. But guess why I stayed for 10 years? My grandmother's words. was you got to fight for your marriage. Mm-hmm. And stick it out. So I'm not saying I'm a great person.

I'm just saying, let me tell you something, don't give up easy. People, there's so many people to help you. Back then, I didn't know anybody to help me. I didn't know anybody could come tell all that too. I really didn't. I was scared to tell somebody. But see, nowadays, look what help we've got. And that's why we have small girls.

I'll add this to your story. because I was one of those that told you to leave him. I know you were. All right. The rest of the family, there was only one person that stood up for Phil Robertson when he was running with the devil. That would be my younger sister, Janice Ellen. Yep, that's right, too.

She said, all of you are his family and you should all be ashamed of yourself because one of these days when he comes to know Jesus, Phil's going to preach and bring more people to Jesus Christ than anybody I know. She said hundreds, maybe even thousands. And the other person that was responsible for that was Bill Smith. And I know why. Phil would not have trusted any other human being. Because he came to the beer joint that night.

He comes to the beer joint because Janice Ellen would not leave Bill Smith alone. Yeah. She kept just hounded him saying, you've got to go preach. to my brother. And he was drinking. I said, don't hit the preacher. Don't hit the preacher. Don't hit the preacher.

That's what I said. That's quite the story, folks. And hey, that is a true life event. Well, okay. So it's pretty powerful in my humble opinion. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. A man that emailed in, you just got, I got nothing for you.

I just get to say, I've grown up around these three people in this room, and I'm lucky as I'll get out to have learned from all of and you should listen to what they just said. And so thank you, Ms. Lisa and Ms. Kay, for being on. If that last segment wasn't the best commercial I've ever heard for that book, that, I mean, wisdom is sitting across from me inside a day. Thank y'all so much for being here. That book is on sale now.

I just looked it up. It's on Amazon. There's probably everywhere else books are sold. I'm sure we'll put a link down below on the YouTube page. And I'm going to send us out of here with a Bible verse that Lisa gave him, that Miss Lisa gave me. Titus 2, 3 through 5, likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanders or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure,

to be busy at home, to be kind and to be subject to their husband so that no one will malign the Word of God. That sounds exactly what Hay's grandma did for her. She did for her. Because she did that for her. There's a lot of people blessed in the world. And we need to keep that tradition going. Keep it going. The men have the same responsibility to teach the young men the same thing.

Amen. So get you some community. Get you a copy of Sister Orr, and we'll see you all next time here on the Duck Call Room. How's it going?
