Are you excited, Si? Oh, yeah. I'm excited every time I come up here. I'm excited every time I see you. Well, welcome to the duck call room. You're hearing a new voice at the beginning. I normally just sit here and laugh. But we have a development.

Martin is under the weather. So we replaced him with an all-pro, all-star, big-time movie star. We brought in a ringer. She is a celebrity, maybe the biggest deal in town for quite a few years. That's right. She had her own show. She had her own show. She owned a restaurant.

And she's decided to come join us here at the Duck Call Room podcast, Miss Kay. Hello. Ms. Kay Robertson is in the building. Hello. Greetings, everybody. Now, what I heard was the reason they wanted me to come up here. They needed somebody sweet on this podcast. Yes, that's exactly right.

Because there's just all this man ways. Well, no, that ain't actually true. but I'm so sweet, okay y'all don't need to send me any sweets okay I'm too sweet already sigh you can you're not supposed to lie when you're talking to people

oh that ain't a lie I am sweet okay sigh has perfected the art of lying without lying that's right that's a great way to put it stone he just it's 95% truthful as always

but you left out the most important part you left out the maker of the best pies. Oh. In, I'd say, this side of the Mississippi River, you will not find a better pie than what Ms. Kay makes. I don't care what... Maybe even the other side of the Mississippi River.

We got a lot of questions for you today, Ms. Kay. Well, I'm going to tell you something. What he said is true. I did not... I did not say it. I'm saying people like him and all of y'all who've eaten my food, well no i am god just made me an excellent pie maker

i make all my crust homemade i want that noted noted and they are delicious well there's a there's a reason we call it the duck commander 50 once you start working here you hang out at miss k's table and you all we all get bigger well uh back when back in the day miss k would cook a meal for everybody every day i did for like 30 years That was before my time. Well, too bad.

You would have been a lot bigger by now. I would have been, because I love your food in this case. She's trying to have been fattened me up for 50 years. Well, that never worked. No, it never worked. You're getting close now. This is just too many twinkies. I used to call him Skeletar because I could see the skeleton bones.

And thank you so much, Sigh, for just changing clothes in my living room. And I would say, I'd say, sigh, I'm in here. You know what he'd say? Well, you're just like my sister. You are. I know, because we've been together since he was, what, 11 or 12 years old. Whenever you met, met your husband. Yeah.

And Sa was on all our dates, you know, about that. Oh, we've talked about it here on this podcast, which I forgot to mention. If you're listening, thank you for listening.

What was it like dating Phil and Sye? Because you were basically, all I've ever heard is triple dates. You know, when I ever thought I wanted like a brother,

all that flew out the window when I got him. It was like, I was like, Phil, is he going to come on all our dates? Well, I need him to help us because look what one of Phil's dates would be is we're going to go sane a pond and get all these little fish and little things to put on the trot lines. Well, I thought that was sounded fun, you know? So me and Sire are out there doing it. And then I said, Phil, I think something just hurts my leg. It felt like a snake. It wouldn't be a snake.

Oh, there ain't no snakes out of here. Ain't no snakes. I said, why? I think it was one. And Sye said, well, I didn't see it. So naturally, then they wouldn't believe me. So I guarantee I was out there with a snake, but he didn't bite me. But here we'd go with all that stuff.

And then we went back and sigh, you're going to remember this. And if you don't, I'm going to bop you in the head. Do you remember them long worms that were that long? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Well, do you remember when you were going to put them down my back? And we ran through a whole cornfield. And you were chasing me, and you finally caught me and stuck those stupid worms down my back.

I never did forgive you for that. They're called riverworms, and they only live in clay. Yeah. And when it would rain, you could literally just pick them up off the ground. Hundreds of them. That's really true. I saw. Why did you decide to be so mean to put them down my back?

Hey, that's what kids do, Kay. I know. Yeah, put bugs on the children. But I wouldn't be two years older than you. I know. We was kids. You was, what, 14 when you met Phil? I was.

I was 14 when I met Phil. And then when I took you to help have raisin, because I'm telling you, here we were, all three of us, he's in the back seat, we're in the front seat. They'd pull up, somebody would pull up the side of him and tell him about, who's that in the back? Phil's like, oh, that's just how I don't worry about it. Yeah, aren't you all glad I had a car, though?

All right, that's it. Car and groceries. Yeah, we had a grocery store. You owned a grocery store? My mom and dad did and my uncle and aunt. And so I just kept taking things to their house. Like I brought a 24-case coat in the bottles like they used to have. You know what they did?

They drank every one of them at one setting. Yeah, that last. And then he put it down, got another one. That would last about 45 minutes. I mean, I never said. saw people do that before. Okay, we never had coax? Obviously.

My mother had to shut me down because she said we were going to go in the hole if I kept taking all the food down there and the cranes. What was it? Chivalet? A Bel Air. A Bel Air? Shevelet.

Blue Belair. She'd come pulling up in the yard. They'd be loaded down with all kinds of snacks and and cases of Coke. Yeah. That sounds like a great girlfriend, Oh, it was. Oh, no.

Girlfriend-in-law? Oh, yeah. That's hilarious. Let me tell you, I don't know if Phil love me for my money, for the car, for the food, or for me. I don't know. He liked it all. I think he was a little bit of all of it. Yeah.

He's been around for a while. How long have you and Phil been married? I don't know. It's 50-something years. I can't keep up with that. She's done now. What year were you married in? Allegedly.

Which one? Which time? We got married more than once, but that's a long story. I ain't going into all that. Okay. Because that's a lot of questions. So you married into the Robertsons. I did.

And Stone did too. So a lot of people are asking what that's like. Besides just having whatever this is. It's an adventure. They're very different. That's to put it mild. Oh, no, it's a. a, what's an adjective for a real good adventure?

From marriage and to the Robertson. Wild man. You were wild man. All of you were. A fantastic voyage, as Cooney, I would say. Yeah, that's a good, that's a good idea. I'll tell you what. One thing.

With the Robertson family. Do you not agree that a Robertson and Jay's going to agree with this too? You cannot make them do what they don't want to do. no you can't get them to admit when they're wrong either exactly well we never wrong you know that's the same and how many times have you heard them say I'm sorry oh look me and nan's been married for 16 plus years not one time as she told me she was sorry about something or that it was her fault or she was wrong and she's the sweetest girl you ever met but she's a robber's She's a robinson.

So she can't break the code. Can't break the code. And like me, I told Phil, I said, I want to hear, I'm sorry. He said, well, I'm acting like that. I said, well, I want to hear the words. No, I can just act like it. I don't have to say the words. Look, the Robertsons are so caring.

Okay. We're always worried about somebody else, especially if they trip and hurt yourself or something. Hell yeah. You're the least compassionate people. on the face of the earth. You're just sitting there lying. He's lying again.

Okay, y'all been married 50-something years. Yeah. How many times have you heard the word I was wrong, the words I was wrong, that phrase? He tried to say it one time, but he goofed that up. He didn't even say it right. He groped it up.

Because we have a deal, I've noticed it early on, especially during hunting season, when something bad happens, and I use bad loosely. I wouldn't consider the things that are called bad, bad as somebody flares a duck. Oh, yeah, that's a crime. There's got to be somebody to take the blame

for that, whatever it is. No matter what happens, you've got to have the blame going. And guess who? They always point a finger at. Probably stone. No. No. You?

No. Me. It's always been me. It's my whole whole. You've always been riding in the back seat. Oh, no, no, no. I've always been, you know, oh, yeah. Just an extra tire back there.

An extra tire. Well, that extra tire sure couldn't eat well for me. I'll tell you that. I'm liking this brother-sister intervention going, so we're going to continue this right after this break. All right, there you go. 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 try tells beef makes such a good product baby ain't it good it's so good it's our friend sall robertson would say buy on the grill look before we got tritels 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 to them but with tritels beef we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Triedails 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 Tri-Tales beef. I know in size case, Christine loves it, which is just a, she doesn't eat meat.

She ain't a big meat easier, folks. Yeah. Just go to trybeef.com slash. That's trybeef.com slash. Don't. Support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. So I want to know from you, okay, that we hear it from Sai all the time. Sy claims he was the person that gave Jace his name.

Well, in a way that's true because when he was in Vietnam and I was pregnant with Jace, Phil wanted to say, why don't we, and this was in case something happened to Sire or whatever, that we're going to name him after him, Jason, Silas Robertson. but then I did not know that that was going to make Jason act like Si. But it really did. Everybody wants to know who I fuss with the most with my kids, the one that was named after Uncle Si. Jason, Silas Robertson.

Well, here's how Uncle Sai said it went down. He said, you had just given birth in the hospital, and y'all have not decided on a name for this base. maybe yet so you told sye go down there and find Phil find out what he wants to name this kid i think they add so so sigh runs down to the river yells off the 50-foot river bluff hey well you want to name this kid and phil says i don't care he said i don't care i've done my part name him after you well that might have happened but that might have happened like that i don't remember and i heard that story and Phil

yelled back Willie Jess and I asked Willie he goes I don't know I wasn't there and so nobody knows the truth He didn't yell on name Y'all have made up so much stuff there you're just so confusing me He said hey what do you expect me to do about it

I've done my part I don't know what he said I want to tell you number one You want to know how Alan got his name Yes Because we watched a movie called Shane and the star was Alan Ladd And I love that name

and I like that movie. So we said, why don't we name our son, Alan? And we did. So there's number one. Yeah, there's number two. And Jace, well, I don't know how that all went down.

I remember some of it, but I know it's because we wanted to name. He said that. I don't remember how that all that went down at the end, but we named him after Si, which was a mistake. And then number three. Hey, the reason that he was like me is,

me and Christine, kept him when we moved down there. Oh, you did. Yeah, he lived with you one day too many. I'm telling you, that's the truth. And then Willie, Jess, was named because my daddy's name was

Willie. Willie Ezel Carraway. That was my daddy. Your daddy's name was Willie. Yeah. I've never heard that. I know, so I'm opening up to America. And then... You heard it here first, America. That's right. And Jess, I read a book and I

I read that book and I said, I like that name. So that's why we picked that name. Now, the next one, Jules Jeptha Roberts. Okay. Jules came from a Huell Brinner. I think that's his name. He was the old movie star. Yule Brinner.

Jules. The Magnificenton. Thank you. That's right. That's correct. We saw that movie like the name, so Phil wanted to name him that. and then Jepta was somebody in the Robertson older back generations. They had a, I think he was like judge or something.

It was Jepta was his name. Great, great, Daddy Robertson. Yeah, and they spelled it different than I did, but that's where that name came from. And then we have our daughter Phyllis that was just named by somebody else because we didn't have her until she was 44. 44. You're incredible, Ms. Kay.

I'm enjoying this episode so much. But the fact that she was named Phyllis is... Pretty much a giveaway. Welcome to the duck comedy. The best part was... Phil and her dad would have got along great. Yeah. They only met one time.

because he was... Willie? Really? Yeah, her dad. Okay. Because he loved the fishing, and fisherman and all that stuff. See, when Phil met him

when we dated, the first ninth grade, 14 years old, we dated. We started going together. I guess going steady. That's what you call it. And then Phil broke up with me in hunting season

because he said I was interfering with hunting season. So I just like, what? and that's what he said. So we broke up. But he had met my dad. Well, then in May, my dad died, and he was 49 years old,

had just a big massive heart attack. So I saw Phil at school and all that, but, you know, he's just being rude. Too busy on. So then he came to the funeral. My dad's funeral. And when I saw him, I was like, well, and then he came over and talked to me,

and then he said, you want to go out Friday night and I said, yeah. So that was it, and we were never apart again. Except for me. I was always alone. Yeah. You were never apart from Saia. For Saenfield, I was never apart from me.

They had a camp up there and had Peerose, okay. We'd go up there, you know, fill me, and then we'd meet her and go pick her up, go to the camp, go fishing. And just, it was the greatest thing to watch, okay. Kay is in the back of the P-row and feels up front. Paddling. You're the paddling? Oh, yeah. This is all over Black Bow.

I'm talking about like from we showed up there like 12 o'clock noon, and it's 6.37 going on at 7 o'clock getting dark. Kay's been padded to field over time. Hey, Paddleman over there. You know, he's the cat's bath. He had his girlfriend paddling. Oh, yeah. So he could be hands-free to him.

Oh, yeah. Oh, I have fish. You remember, but you might know this one. So I was paddling, and he told me to go under those trees because he thinks his fish under there, because he saw him jumping. So I go under the trees, and what happens is the moss is there, and then all of a sudden, about 100 spiders start running all over me. And I start screaming. He said, be quiet. You're going to scare the fish away.

I said, I've got 100 spiders on me. and I said, I'm leaning back. And I leaned back, all right, and flipped out of the boat. You fell out of the boat. I fell out of the boat. And then he said, well, you scared all those fish away? I said, I could drown. So that was really a fun trip.

Ms. Kay, you are an angel here, sit down from God above, because I don't know how you made it. Oh, I don't know how I'm alive. You were paddling. Your first couple dates were sain in ponds, with all this character. Patching snakes. She was getting used to the pioneer life.

She married a pioneer man. Yeah, and that was kind of a crop, really, because, I mean, some things Pioneer like are good and some were, I mean, I was the hard hand. And I wouldn't even paid. In fact, I paid for everything. So before you met Phil, you weren't hunting and fishing. Oh, yeah, see, I love that my dad,

Daddy hunting fish. Okay, yeah. And so I was loved that kind of man because my daddy was that kind of man. So I did love that. But your daddy probably let you hunting fish. You weren't just the decade. No, I was a helper, but I mean, he was, no, he didn't make me do stuff. He did the work, but he was, I loved to observe him and watch him and I loved all that.

I just loved it. That's awesome. Your granddaughter is just like you. Bay cake. Beaked. BK. Oh, yeah. BK is a legend on this podcast.

She really is. I know she's a miniature girl, but she is a tough fisherman hunter, and you know she likes to bake. And I'm teaching her how to bake. She can make my biscuits and my sour cream pound cake. Also known as Bullfrogs, what the people know her about,

but she makes Kay's biscuits on a regular basis. Fluffy. Every time she walks in my house, Phil's asked her to make a cake. sour cream pound cake she said okay and she just goes in there and whips it up I said you want me to help you she said no I can do it myself BK is a legend oh no no she is so I knew her as I didn't know she could cook too oh yeah she does it all she got a sewing machine yeah she can cook she's sold she's learning how to play the piano I'm

gonna say something some man is gonna be the luckiest man on earth that gets her she is a pioneer woman. She is. If she can hunt fish, and how old is she? 13. 13. But she looks about 10.

Yeah. Well, that's awesome. Somebody's going to get real lucky. They've got to get by me first. Yeah. I don't know. The first couple are not going to be lucky because they might get put in a, what is that thing you did to me the other day?

There's a hundred different. Whenever I was about. Clever hope. Yeah. Oh, that was just a standing guillotine choke. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Standing guillotine choco. So if anybody, if there's any young men out there like, BK sounds interesting, first remember there is Mr. Stone. Yeah, he's scary now that he got so tough. But he really is strong and tough. I'll tell you that. That is true. Well, how about this?

How about we take another break? And I want to dive more into those four boys that you birthed because I work for one of them and there's lots of questions about them. Oh, good. Well, I'm ready. I can't wait. What was that?

It's our, it's the thing that it makes noise. All right, anyway, we're back. So, Ms. Kay, we got a few questions for you, straight from the fans about your sons. Oh, great. And we've aren't, so Jace was the toughest? Because that was one question. He thought he was?

No, like the toughest to raise. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. No doubt. No doubt? No doubt. Jace, hands down. All right, but who, then this is a weird question, and I don't know that we should read it,

because it could open up another can of family worms, but Chucky asked who is your favorite son? That's a tough one. That makes me nervous. I'm supposed to say that. Although, I'll say the one most like me. How about that? That doesn't mean it's a favorite. That's Jeptha.

Jep. Also the favorite. The baby. The baby? Yeah. he does have some of my characteristics. He will be able to, you can

make him do something that he started out to say he would do. None of the other Robertsons would do that. But Jeff can be bribed, talked into, loved, do everything, and he will come down and do it. For the right press,

he'll do pretty much anything. Okay. Your wife's like that, too. If you didn't know that, you need to know it now. Now, so show me the cash. I'll ask you if she can do something and she'll say, well, let me see.

I said, oh yeah, and I'm tipping too. Oh, yeah, I can do it. What time? Where? When? What do you want me to do? I agree with that lifestyle. And then another question from Denise.

So a lot of people that watch our show, they got families themselves and we give out, Sy gives out life advice. I don't know if you've heard any of it. It's great advice. I've watched y'all. You do? Not regular.

I was surprised at all. I binge watch y'all. Okay, that's good. That counts. I'm counting that as a win. But Denise asks, how often do you talk to your boys? Because you got one that I don't know where he lives anymore. He used to live in my neighborhood.

Sometimes he lives in Austin. I got no clue what's going on. And then Jeptha lives in Austin. And when you can't get a hold to Willie, you always call me. So how often are you checking in on the heathens? Well, quite often as I can. Now, Al and I are close. We talk really often.

And then I called Jep. In fact, I talked to him three times yesterday. Willie, he's gotten nice because I think I scared him one time because I thought I was having a heart attack or something. And so now he answers more calls than he doesn't. you know but then sometimes he's just off the grid so that's when I call you I always get calls from Miss Kay she goes hey John David where's Willie at and I'm like I'm not sure she goes well he won't answer his phone go find him and so that I go find him for you

I mean I am his mother you know you would think he would answer I gave him life he should remember that and now Jason I'd love to talk to him more but I Again, he's too busy, and he's not a phone person. When he comes in, I say, can I get a hug? Yeah, okay, go ahead. Like, oh, I have to endure this, but it's okay. She's my mom. She cooks good and all that.

And I love him, and he's good. But he is not a talker. We're so caring. I'm being sarcastic. I'm being sarcastic if you don't know this. For what I understand, it comes from a long, line of Robertson

men that cared for one another and was always checking on each other. Oh yeah. That's the biggest lie I've ever come out of your mouth. I have a question for you too, Ms. Kay, because you just said it. Whenever Jace comes over, he said, yeah,

Kay. Oh, why they call me? Because I could never imagine being like, hey, Jan. Oh, I got that figure out. Oh, Janice. Come over here, Janice. I'm not afraid of my mom, but that would be weird. I do have the answer, in my opinion, of that. 15 years, Granny and Paul, feels mom and dad, live next to us, right side, right close.

I mean, we could just walk there in three minutes. Okay, they lived there. It was the raising of Jason and Willie Jess and then Jep too. Right there, the most. Alan was getting older, so he wasn't just at our house all the time. time. But so we had a tear of, there's Granny and Paul up here, there's Canfield here, and then the kids. So somehow, because Granny and Paul were above us in, I don't know, respect or, you know what I'm talking about, they were the older ones, they were the ones.

So somehow, Jason and Willie, I'm, uh, let's see, no, uh, Jason and Willie, yeah, they were like, Granny and then's first, so we're saying, So somehow through that, we became not their mom and dad, but we were their mom and dad, but they felt like they could just call us Kay and Phil because they had a higher, you know, grandmother and grandpa that were the most respected and the most. So we came down some from being like mom and dad, and we just all was best friends, I guess. So what did they call them? Granny and Paul. So there was Granny and Paul and Kay.

So Willie and Jason called Jall Phil and Kay? They call us that right now. Oh, okay. They do. But then Jeff calls me, mom and Alan does, and calls Phil Dad, and then, yeah, that's what they do. Yep. Al and Jeff call them Mom and Dad. So it's just a...

Willie and Jay's... Phil and Kaye. There was some strange. And I'm not upset about that. Everybody else is upset. I don't care. I mean, they love us. I know they would help us if we need it and everything.

And if they want to call me, Phil and care, we don't... Me and Phil just not. We did not care. We don't care. Well, yeah, for all the making fun of the Robertsons and their caring attitudes and the four boys you raised, y'all actually are all super close. And you did a pretty good job at Raisin for rambunctious. I can only imagine they were rambunctious.

But they all turned out all right. We don't have enough time to talk about all that. We don't? No. I mean, what about the time when Jason, see, he was supposed to bring Willie home. That was when they were going to Pinecrest. Jason might have been going to Woodlawn. So he comes and Willie's not at the pickup place.

Jason said, so Jason asked his friend, where is he at? And they said he's across the street over there. And he said, why didn't he here for me to pick him up? They said, well, they were having a game of strip poker over there. And your brother seemed to want to get right in the middle of that. So Jason comes in. Willie don't have his shirt on. And there's girls and boys playing.

And I'm like, are you kidding me? Yeah, that's what happened. And he said, put your clothes back on and come get this truck. I'm calling Mom and Dad and let Dad come over and witness this. How old were they? Oh, they were like junior. One was, Willie was like seventh grade and Jason was ninth, I guess. I mean, what about that?

Strip poker, boy. Strip poker, yeah. from a hot pool. Yeah, it sure does. And they probably couldn't get you out of it. But you, how did, so how did they end up like this? Because now they're all, you know, I, because I hear stories and I'm like, good grief.

Life was tougher back then. They're beating each other. Robertsons are living proof God is alive and well. That's exactly. Only God could say. And has a great sense of humor. Only he could have taken all that mess. and put it back together again.

I mean, it's like Humpty Dumpty. He fell off and broke everything, and then he put it back together again. So all I can say is we got God to think for putting them back together again. Because I literally thought they were going to drive me crazy. And the night, they locked me out of the house. I need to hear that story.

Let's take a break, and then I want to hear about you locked out of the house. While your kids are inside? All right, yeah. We're going to take a break and then we'll hear about Ms. Kay's motherhood experiences more. All right. So, right before the break, Ms. Kay got fired up again about a certain action of her children. They locked me out of the house.

Now, I don't remember what led up to that. But I was so mad and I was beating, beaten on the thing. And I missed the door and hit the little glass and broke it in my door. Well, then I heard him say, oh no she just broke the door she's going to kill us so anyway I got in the house

somebody ran up there and must unlock then they took off running out the back door and I took off chasing them and I grabbed Phil's belt on the way out and I said I'm going to whip y'all till you can't even sit down and I chased

them up and down finally got a hold of them and I just had one at a time and when I went to hit the belt with them, I had it slipped, and it turned around, I hit myself between the eyes with the buckle. So they were like, now she's harder. We got to go in the woods and say,

I couldn't catch me up to that. All I was screaming then was, wait till your daddy gets home. Ooh. Yeah, they got it. I got that. They never locked me out again. They bring the pain.

And then I practically put my eyes out myself Because I was too mad And sometimes parents don't get too mad When you whip Because you'll just hurt your own self You'll take a buckle to your own fork Right here, right between my eyes I did it

Did you ever have to discipline her children? No No You were just the fun uncle Yeah Yeah, I don't Did he cause any problems No

The one that caused the problem was Al Robertson. He's the instigator. Yeah. You know what? We called him sneaky Pete. He was so sneaky that he made me think he was the angel of the world because you know how nice he was. And then all of a sudden he's the one that got them to started

because they're only two and a half years apart. Jason and Willie, every Sunday for like three years, they got a whipping. Because they had a fight in the car. And we were all in that station. wagon that looked like the one on vacation, Christmas vacation and all that. And every Sunday, and I said, you better shut up right now.

You're going to get another whipping when you get home. And then I saw one of them yanked the other one's hair, then it said, don't look at me, don't look at me. And here they go. And every Sunday, Phil had to take his breath off and whip me every Sunday. I mean, why would they do that? No one in the head. You're talking about hard-headed.

I think that was a tradition. because Tommy Robertson every time we would go to Dad's mother's house He got a whipping. She had bring in, she had put the food on the table and said, okay, let's eat. And we look, everybody's in there, and Tommy, you know, and he's,

hey, boy, get in here. He said, I ain't eating. Dad said, oh yeah, you're going to eat. Yeah, he'd tear him up. Nope. Every Sunday. Finally, his mother just told him, said, James, I don't care if he ever eats anything here. but you ain't

whoop him no more. He would whip him every Sunday because that's, there was the general. Well, I don't know why we did it either because it didn't work.

It quit working. No, yeah. Well, that's the hardheadness of a Robertson. Thank you for admitting that. Well, no, no. That's like, we're making progress here.

That's like the phone, okay. None of the Robertson men, none of them. You know, it was about, hello, yeah, bye. That's about the conversation. I think we could sum that up in one word

manners no we just didn't care about a phone hey if you want to talk to me you know what I live driving up rude behavior nobody taught you

every time I call jace on the phone oh it's rough he'll answer a phone he says yeah his daddy does the same thing that's how he answers

the phone yeah you call Phil what do you want yeah what do you want it's like he is perturred that you have made him get up and go get that phone.

Yeah. Like, what do you want? But then when you start talking about something that he's interested in, oh, I found some hand, he got a big piece of pipe over. Hey, hey, hey. And he'll hold a conversation with it. The honest truth. That is the truth.

Everything he's saying is the total truth. Roodness plus, that's what I call. That's it. I do have a question about rudeness sitting next to me. He told a story about hitting you with a fork at the dinner table. Oh, so that's what she said the first time she ate, had dinner with us. Did he really stab you with a fork? Yeah, he did, and I thought I was going to die.

I mean, he said, I called for that piece. Who does that? I mean, we all get our fork and get our chicken, and he just struck his thing right on my hand, and I said, I called for that piece. I was the last picture of chicken. So that's a true story. That is a really true story. Oh, man.

And that was at your house? I did just ticker. I just put it on it and held it. And said, I had called for that. Oh, you had the park on the chicken. Yeah. Yeah, but I'm going to tell you something. That's so rude.

I was a guest at your house. And I couldn't even get a piece of chicken I wanted. Oh, you already had two or three. No, I did. That was the last piece. That was the last piece. That's the most Robertson thing ever right there. He knows how many pieces of chicken you had.

50 something years ago. Well, it was like they fried three chickens and they ate them all and then he's fighting over the last piece because I wanted that piece of chicken. Oh, it was so rude. So if you've ever noticed when you're eating the meal with Phil or Si, they both do the same thing, especially if it looks really good. You have that food on the table, we say the blessing. And as soon as the blessing's over, Phil has a,

different way of doing it aside but Phil get up he'll get his plate instead of you know fixing one for his wife or whatever he says let me show you boys how to do this y'all watching and then he he'll fix his plate number one in the line every time so bullfrogh she said I know why pap off field does that I said why is that she said he wants to be the first one to get his food well no no

all it's okay show everybody how to do it every time you're doing that okay everybody gets up there you say the blessing and I try to be nice. I tell me, all right, the guests go first. Well, they're sitting there with twiddling and thumbs. I said, hey, you're going to go ahead and get the line? Well, get out of the way and let me show you how to do it. Go ahead and feel my place.

That's the line. Let me show you how to it. That's what Phil does. And I said, Phil, the be guests should go first. He said, well, let me show them how to do it. Like, they don't know how to fix their own place. Well, they don't because they always sit there. Yeah, because you have to wait two minutes.

Oh, you got to move. Oh, I know. When the food's cooking, ready, you got to move. Could you imagine them growing up, you know, fighting over that food? Yeah, I was there. How many brothers and sisters did you have? I have one older sister, eight years older me. That's it.

That's it. And then you were thrown into this. Throwing forks at you for having. No, she didn't throw one's thrown into nothing. You didn't choose. She jumped down. was both feet. Well, yeah.

Well, and my mother didn't like any of y'all. Well, hey. She said, why would you want to hook up with that poor guy that, I mean, I know he plays football and all of that, but, I mean, he doesn't have any manners. He doesn't have any money. And everything, you pay for everything. Why would you even want to hook up with him? I said, well, he's kind of a pioneer man, and I like him.

and you know what? She said, well, this is the worst thing I've ever heard. She said, I'm just going to tell you. And I said, and the more you talk against him, the more I'm going to like him. And that's what happened. And look at you now. Yeah. It turned out all right.

It took a few years. Toby Keith. Oh, yeah. Well, I'm glad my grandmother taught me to fight for my marriage because that's what I did. And I'm glad I did. but I'm telling you, we had some rough times because look, I was raised rich, he was raised poor,

but now he's very intelligent, but he'll say I'm a C-plus man, but that's the story. He's smarter than a C-plus. I'm the C-plus on down, girl. That's the one thing about the Robertsons, is they all have sharp minds, very sharp. They can look at things,

and they don't ever forget it. Oh, yeah. Like, Jace would play's cards, why he's such a good card player, Domino's. He remembers how many pieces of chicken she had 50 years ago. That's right. You played Dominoes with Jays.

After one round, he knows what everybody has. Yeah, he excels and poker and dominoes. But they're all really, really smart. They get that from you or Phil? No, Phil. Look, I wasn't the best student in the class, but I was the nicest girl at school. And I was nice to people, and I'd have a lot of good quality.

but books are not one of them well i never went to school with you but i can't attest you're the nicest girl around here thank you so let's take our last break and then we'll be back to close this one out and we're back um we didn't really get to a lot of the questions going down we just went to the robertson history and what it's like to be miss k but there are we got a lot of questions about you in the kitchen and you already told us yourself you're great at it i love it you love it so The Living, the Easy Life, asked, what is your favorite recipe to make? I feel like that's a big question. It's a big question, but here's what I'll give them just kind of the truth,

but it's not going to be in one thing. I fell in love with rolling out dough, you know, when I was with my grandmother when I was probably started this about three and a half or four years old. And I love to roll the dough. So which makes me love all my homemade pie crust and whatever's in them. And then I love to make chicken and dumplings, which is a signature dish of mine, that people, I'll tell you right now, I just made a pot this big. They're going to Sadie and Christian just had the new baby.

That's going over there. Of course, I had to take out Phil's part. And then tomorrow, Little Will called me, Will. son and he's bringing four people from liberty that he goes to school with down to the river house, Willie's Riverhouse. So I asked us, what do you

want to eat? I'll fix you whatever you want. Guess what he ordered? Chicken and dumplings. So I made it today and I'm making it tomorrow and it's all homemade. And I can attest they are the best. And I roll that dough out and I work hard. So you make the homemade dumpments. That's right.

The homemade dumpings. The homemade dumpings. The home-made flour tortillas in there and call it a dog. No, no. That's a long answer. That's like fake news, no. Fake news. Well, because who was it? Godwin made you chicken of dumplings? No, Godwin went and picked some up.

But when you, I don't care. I don't care how good a dumplings you think you got. You don't put them next to Ms. Kay's dumplings and say, eat this. So you can't have anyone else's chicken dumplings. That's right. Because you've been sitting in the back seat of filling Kay's car. And I tried them. They weren't that bad.

They're edible. They were, they, but compared to K's, they're, that's not fair. You can't compare them to K's. But I've spent a whole lifetime perfecting that. And my pie crust and my other, my other things, my, my cornbread and my fried cornbread and my hushed bread and my, I make really good spaghetti and meat sauce. I do a great pork roast with dumplings. Spaghetti. in meat sauce, he claimed that.

That was his final meal. Your spaghetti. That's what he wanted on his way out. His last thing on earth. That and them fried pies. Oh, yeah. Fried apple pie. Now, my fried pie recipe,

I would put it against anyone in the country. And I think I'd win. Yep. No doubt. I had some of y'all's muskidine jelly this morning just on our own toast. And it was good.

You all just good at cooking. Yeah, and like I can cook. You know, now Jay and Phil mostly do a lot of the wild game cooking. You know, I can cook certain things of it, but I let them do what they can do because I want them to be in the kitchen. Everybody around here knows how to cook at some extent because if you don't, you're just going to get. Well, that's right.

Well, you know, Phil will only eat cooking from two people that you're looking at them. Both y'all. Yeah. That's it. And look, here's something I make every year at Christmas. What about my homemade crawfish pie or homemade shrimp pie? I have the homemade crust, the most delicious middle, and the top crust. Oh.

And it is seafood. Crawlfish pie? Yeah. And I feel like I've heard that song. I've ate some nice places in New Orleans. I've never had anything better than that. Her homemade crawfish pie. Oh, no, no.

that's like shrimp. I can't eat shrimp anywhere but down the field's house. Yeah. Well, I'm telling you, we can put it too much or something. We put out the Creole food and we can do it well. And we used to go to restaurants when we went around selling duck haws and we would eat stuff and then we'd figure out what was in it. And we went home and learned how to make it better.

Yeah. Yeah, Phil uses John Folse's cookbook a lot. John Fulce. That's a good question. Who's cookbook, not your own? Who would you go to? Phil's John Fulse. Yeah, I've used his and I can't believe.

I can't think of the name of the cookbooks that I've used. But there's two or three that Cajun cookbooks that we do use from. And there was one that a book is called Sweets from Louisiana. And, you know, it was just a whole bunch of ladies. They did different things. I got ideas from them. So I take ideas from other people's stuff And then mix it with stuff I've already learned

But the big thing you got to know is You cannot make something And it's a mess Well throw it out and start over You can't just say well I'll never cook that again I mean that's a loser you know You keep trying to go and do it to get your best Well most people who keep to it's what you say well go

You love to do it That's right That's why it's so good. Because most people, cooking a meal is just as sure that they do, but they don't care nothing about it. Well, if you don't care nothing about it, you just throw a bunch of junk together. And if the people at the table just eat it,

because one thing that Robertson is going to do, when they eat, they're going to taste it and say, well, you kind of, this ain't up to your standards. Well, you know, Kay's style of cooking is, I hate to say it, but it's sad that it's going to be a thing of the past unless some of these younger generations step up and learn that the old ways of doing things. What does Phil call it old woman cooking? There you go.

Well, no, Grandmama. Well, here's the only thing I say about my cooking. Them hands, okay, it's important. Because, hey, that meal is made and there's a lot of love rolled into that dough. Yeah, and there's also some good old Crisco load in there and butter, too. So here's one thing about my cooking. You may not be able to stay on it all the time because it is a little rich. So you come over three or four days and do some, you know, healthier stuff.

But when you get on mine, I'm going to tell you something, it might make you gain a little bit. And the only reason I know that from myself is I have to wear three girdles now. but I'll tell you what it's worth it it was worth it yeah somebody like Johnny D would be in a bind if he lived at your house well because we can my wife can kind of cook too she's got both of his case cook

we're pioneer woman fans I've mentioned that before you don't have any discipline you are going to gain some serious poundage around here but that's why we got real butter that's why we got Jay though who's physical training can take the weight right off of you. It may kill you doing it.

Well, Sae lasted about a week. He gave up. He gave up. I was going to live with the weight. I'm thinking about joining his boxing club. I think you should. And we should film it.

That would be an episode. Miss Kay, I've had a blast. Si, have you enjoyed having your sister-in-law here? Going back in time. He calls me his real sister. Well, she is. She's always been my oldest sister. That's true.

Your oldest, yeah? Yeah. And you've just been stuck with both of them ever since. Yeah, I really, I married two, Robert's sister. Married two of them. Phil actually accused me. You love her too, don't you? I said, yeah, I do.

I said, but not the way you're thinking. I love her as a sister. That's right. And look, there's not another woman that I don't love more than Miss Kay. And she is such a great. example for young women across the world. Amen. And that's going to lead us into our Bible verse. I'm reading this one just about you, Ms. Kay. It's going to be Proverbs 31, 28 through 31. Her children arise and call her blessed,

her husband also, and he praises her. Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all. Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate. Ms. Kay, we're all sitting here today because of you. Without you, none of this exists. Well, now you're trying to make me cry. I'm not trying to make you cry.

I'm just glad you joined us today. Thank you so much. Well, I had a blast. I'm going to come cook for y'all tomorrow. Is there any way you can make a custard pie? I got the crust chilling in the oven and the refrigerator. That is a yes. That's a good. I can whip it out

tonight. What time we're going down there? I'll come pick you up. We've got to plan the menu. You got to cook for Will tomorrow. Hey, she'll make that too. Oh, I can do two things. We can do too, boy. We can keep going.

Well, guys, thanks for tuning in. Thank you, Ms. Kay for being here. Be sure to subscribe to the YouTube channel. Ms. Kay, love you. Love you all.
