I am unashamed. What about you? Still making fun of me a podcast later in my defense. So we were in between the starting this next podcast that we're doing some of our ads. And so we got back into lamb-based versus land blasted. No, I had, I changed the M to N. And I put blast because that sounds more critical. If you land-blast somebody.

that means you drop some C4 in the middle of their argument. You just added one little caveat, caveat, caveat. There's another word for you. A little caveat. A little caveat. Look, you got to remember, I'm married. One L changes everything. I'm married.

I'm married to an English police officer. So when someone is speaking, my wife, she will lean over. Well, she did this first. You basically say instead of, of, bomb bastic you said bomb blastic well look so just to prove to add your point so when i put in land blasted jace's new word it said did you mean lamb base

that's what's said did you mean lamb base and then it gives you the definition of lamb base which could be lamb based that's why the last group of people that we're a part of that's why we're unoffendable that's right because i would say to that if I could talk directly to the Wikipedia people, I would say, nope. I heard your word. I like this one better. So yesterday, look, last dead duck season, I'm going back to town, which is usually a 35-minute venture. Missy said, hey, she ordered some food.

Go by and get it. Great. We have a plan. So I'm getting close to the meal, and all of a sudden, I see. I see both lanes of traffic dead stopped right in front of the mail. And I think, what could be going on? What is there a wreck? You know, your mind goes through all this.

Because a little further, there's a train across it, but wasn't the train. Wasn't the train. If it was the train there, you're in trouble. Well, I had forgotten that every year, the redneck area, the redneck people in this area, they do a Christmas parade. Ah. They do it every year. and every year I get right in the middle of it.

And at first you go through the gamut of emotions. I miss lunch. Is there any way around it? No. There's no way around it. No, it's shut down. We shut down the town. And look, I would approximate, is that the right usage of the word?

That's good. Of course, no. 5,000 rednecks. They have now got on both sides of the street. They call this the Baca Bocke-Boh. shut it down. The Balkenville Christmas Parade. They shut down the floor of traffic.

Did you realize that we've had two family members serve as Grand Marshal of the Balkhamville Christmas Parade? Anybody want to guess who those two were? I'm going to guess Sigh. Si. Who's the other? Mom. Oh, my goodness.

Phil didn't even know that. Did you know that? I didn't know that. So here's what I noticed. Two different years they served as the Grand Marshal of the Baltimore. Feelings of in a hurry and impatience subsided, and I realized, you know what, embrace this, enjoy it. So I picked out a few factoids that I thought would be chuckly. Chuckly.

And, you know, because these are my people. No, number one, they had, I don't think that many rednecks live in this area, so they had to drive in from surrounding areas. Do you think? You know, you're probably right. I doubt there's five thousand. I mean, there's lawn chairs out there. Yeah. It's a draw.

I think it's a reasonable draw. So they got the floats, as they say. And you got to remember, over half the floats consisted of a trailer bed and, hey, being pulled by a truck. But do you know what the biggest cheer of the parade that I was a part of? Because I just, you know, I read that world. Oh, yeah, you just go in. Because people are like, get her done, you just pull in and there's a mixture of cars. You may be the third honorary.

Look, I actually felt like this was so dangerous because there's kids all over the street. There's people driving and it just gets in with traffic. I actually looked up last night to see if anyone had died during this. That's how dangerous it seemed to me. And we all lived. What are we celebrating? Christmas. It was Christmas.

Oh, okay. So here's what I found funny. The biggest cheer of the entire parade was some old boy with a bunch of kids in the trailer, hey, they're throwing out beads and they throw out the beads. Oh, we got a little Mardi Gras mix in there. Oh, yeah, it's beads and crappy candy. That's what it is. And look, the streets are just littered, like the yuppie people would just faint and fall out.

Nobody's cleaning it up. They're cleaning this up. Somebody in a bit longer. The biggest cheer was one of the trailer tires of the trailer. The tire, no, we're way past flat. That happened on the way up there. We had a flat tire. Now the rubber's gone, the rim and they're sparks flying,

and the crowd is going crazy. There's a guy with sparks flying. Wait, that should have... Like it was a built-in sparkler. These kids are in the back of this trailer. With this hay right there could go up at any minute. I thought, and what is the crowd doing? Cheers.

We got like a NASCAR, you know, debacle. Well, Jason, I didn't even know anything about that. Well, have you got out more years? I've heard. I've got it. And what's shocking is... Is it sigh and my woman have been the girl. Your wife and your brother were the grand marshal's on different years.

That was news to me right here. I see it. My mom said, oh, it was so good. It was like I was the queen of my people. Here's the second thing. Here's the second thing I noticed is that in the redneck world, I finally realized this while watching all this. Because, you know, I was in this thing for two hours,

is that we use our horn. You know, most people, there's actually in some societies, especially in these urban towns, they want to file laws against the use of a horn because it causes road rage. Road rage. Well, because if you blow the horn at somebody in an urban area, that causes road rage. They're like, how dare you blow your functional horn at me because I was, you know, stopped at a red light on my cell phone. I think I'll drive past you and shoot you. But in defense of these laws, Jay, is when you go to New York, they overdo it a little bit. We're all backed up here 30 deep.

Well, New York's an exception. They use their horn. Which, by the way, I like that. But it's against the law now. That's what I'm saying. They're not supposed to use our horn. This is what I'm talking about. But here, we use our horn.

If somebody pulls out in front of me, I don't, if somebody's in front of me, and they turn around like what. And I'm like, Go! If we're going to have the horn and it's going to be loud, why not use it? If you want to stop this, quit putting the horns in the vehicles because I'm going to use it. So I was going to tell you, the horns were going off constantly. But that was just more celebration. Yeah, well, we're celebrating the horn.

Celebratory. I just thought. Like a Biden car rally. So the third thing I'll say, now this is the PG-13. No, it was R, I guess. but some and this was strange because you know i'm a man and uh we've gone through different texts about lust and and you know if your eye causes you to sin gouge it out these these barbaric type passages you know about keeping your heart pure but i'll tell you this in the redneck world

which they got this from marty growl when the bead float comes by some of the women will lift their shirt up to get the beads stone to Oh, boy. And I will tell you this, I had zero temptation to look at the female. When they went to the bottom of the shirt to raise it up, I said, nope, I'm not scanning that. That was zero temptation. You were like, pass. I'll pass.

So I thought that was comical. But you know, just the interview you brought that up. So when we were on our airplane going to Bahamas, so there's. there's two seats here and then one seat right across the aisle. And there was a woman in the one right across the aisle. And I'm in the seat next to the aisle. So she's literally as close to me and you are here, Dad. But I wasn't even paying attention to this woman.

Lisa noticed her. And so I never even looked over there. Well, when we landed, she had such a loose clothing on. Apparently, one of her boobs came out of her shirt as she's sitting there. And we're all ready to get off the plane. And so Lisa noticed because there were two men. standing up, an older man in front of us and one behind us that are looking, you know, she can tell that, well, she's, then Lisa looks like, what are they looking at? Well, they're looking

at this woman with an exposed breast. If a woman has her breast exposed in a public place, she knows it. Well, that's what Lisa said. Yeah. Yeah, she was like, she was just showing out. But I think now, and there's a, there's a movement in our society that people want to be like, well, I can do this and you shouldn't look. Right. And to my, to, I'm not sure why they feel that they have to do that. Senseless, faithless, heartless,

and ruthless. A quoting of Romans 1. That's right. No, that, Phil, you've left one. Depravity has gone mainstream,

but you left one thing out. Shirtless. Yeah. Shirtless. There you go. Maybe we could start with shirtless. But what I'm saying is,

I was glad that I was oblivious and never noticed. That's either, either I'm getting older or kudos to me that I wouldn't even looking for that. Yeah. So anyway, I thought I was. So you were in the middle of the redneck Christmas parade.

Yeah, and I actually enjoyed it. Yeah. You know, it was. It will become worse than what Jace just described before it's over. You're right. Where have you been? I said, I went to the Christmas parade. She went, what?

I said, well, I actually got caught up in it. I said, but at first I was impatient. I said, but as it went on, I thought, these are my people. I was going to say, if they had only any idea that you were in it, because you're like one of the redneck princes around here, they would have realized they had royalty. They've had sigh, they've had mom, they kind of unofficially had you as the.

I see why we're made fun of, though. I mean, it was, it just didn't seem like a whole lot of education represented there. It seemed a little dangerous. And it just seemed like the economy in that area is really, low. Yes, because nothing about it was real nice.

It all just seemed kind of duct taped and bundowed vehicles. So it didn't look at all like Macy's parade in New York

with the big thing floats. It was all about the candy and the beads and the kids. And they wonder why a morning

or late afternoon stroll through the woods. It's a bad It's not a bad thing, is it? I'll tell you this, how laws were broken. Multiple laws were broken during that procedure. By the way, did you, seeing the laws, did you see any police officers?

I saw a couple of police officers riding in the middle of it, and I thought, are they trying? What's their role? It was so weird. Are they just saying it's just too much. Are they kind of caught up in the flow? There's too much to tackle. That's right. The herd mentality.

Sometimes it's just best to say, I need to just chill out here like you did and just say, you know. You know what? I just kind of have to joke. It's like the old preachers that one time and said, you know, I look around. I'm like a mosquito and a nudist colony. There's so much to do, but I don't know where to start. Yeah. I don't know.

But it was funny. That's pretty funny. All right. Let's take a break. So I wanted to show you a picture or something. I think Josh will be able to show you, and Cade will be able to show this on the thing. So one of our listeners sent this to me, and it was interesting because at the top of it, it said, what department in saltwater made this?

And I thought, well, this is somebody that's really been listening to Dad. So this is, here's the picture. I'll show you both. So that's a moth, as you can see, right? That's like a big one. A big moth. I mean, you see, it's a person. Has this been, is this picture been altered in any way?

No. I mean, that's bigger than a hand. It's bigger than a hand. This is a giant. But I've seen these, look, somebody sent me a picture of a frog, and I've been sent like a dozen times. But it's a, it's trick for targeting. No, this is real.

This is real. I researched it. So, but this is what it looks like from behind the moth. Oh, my goodness. When his wings are closed. What about that? A two-headed moth. So that's his wings.

but it looks like two snakes. You're saying his. Well, his, hers. I don't know if my... Oh, that's his wings. That's the wings from behind him. So if somebody comes, some varmock comes up

and they're going to eat this moth, they think there's two snakes looking at them. Now, that is something. This is a good fun. Yeah, so here's another picture of it right here. I see. I see how it worked. Yeah.

The tip of his wings. But she asked a good question. What part of the slime? and salt water produced that little thing. Exactly, which I thought that was really interesting because we talk about all the things in nature. So the almighty, for a defense mechanism for this moth, made it look like there were two snakes ready to pounce.

So, you know, something's coming. I don't know what would eat this moth, but whatever it is, he's coming along saying, you know, a frog. A frog. I got to take on these two snakes if I want to eat this moth. I mean, that's a pretty good defense mechanism. It is.

Now, these are the kind of material that, We need to be passed on. That is because I love looking at the details of life, of all life. And once you just compile it all, the evidence is overwhelming that some intellect designed it. Yeah. Like that. That's, I don't even know where to start. Well, and, you know, again, an evolutionist would say, no, over time, this thing, you know, evolved to the point where it could have this, you know, these, what looked like

snakes on the back of his wings. But I mean, the natural selection. I mean, things do evolve where, you know, we've had this discussion before. But,

you know, how did it get set in motion? This just looks like an intellectual design. Yeah. It is. There's some intent here to keep this little moth, which when you think about a moth, he doesn't have much of a defense system.

No. He's pretty much like if you slap one, he just turns into duster. Right. And if you crank up a fire or a little candlelight, they just go right into it. You know, they just sizzle them, you know. So, I mean, they don't have a lot. But now this guy, this guy's, you're going to have to think twice about eating him. Well, if I reach my hand back, I'd say, whoa. A hesitation, I just basically, he was designed for you to pause.

Exactly. Say, wait a minute. I thought it was pretty good. And then one more, Jays for you from a listener. I'm always hearing from folks. John is from Pennsylvania. So he sent me a, it says, FYI, just for you guys, in quotation, or in parentheses or not. And he sent a number that is another bank number

from Pennsylvania. You know what's funny? So he's like, if I want to shut this one down, here's one up in my area. Well, look, there is a new bank in the city that I noticed that we live that is now, putting the time and temperature up.

Ah. I'm like, on the big screen. Podcast listener. So say no to cell phones. Just look at your local bank. That's exactly right. You know who's listening. So do you want to give that number?

No, I'm not giving the number. I mean, we cause quite the upheaval in our local bank with this number being disconnected. But you know what's sad? bank number sat there for 10 years dormant. Nobody answered. And when I was kidding around saying they're staring at the red phone and saying it's ringing, 10 years later, is it an alien? It was almost like that. They had forgotten that that was something that they were offering.

So they disconnected. So it's disconnected. Now it's gone. In fact, I'm wondering if that bank even still exists. Time and temperature. and I have no way of grasping either. I don't have a watch norse. So, I'm just out of luck.

A landline would be handy for you to call in to get that if you wanted to know what it was. Right? Usually in your rig vehicles have a clock. Most vehicles have a clock. Oh, was that my own about there? Tell Kay, ask you if we can put her on speaker. Look, I'll tell you something funny.

After my redneck parade, because I've been thinking about this since we have our upcoming guest next podcast, the two most persecuted people, I guess, in the U.S., because it's okay to do so, is the redneck world and the Christians. Because, you know, Matthew 5, he's like, blester you when people insult you and persecute you. So we just, and people do. You know, movies, they just throw us under the bus. Oh, yeah. So they had the premiere of the chosen Christmas special come out. What was that?

Saturday night. And so Missy, she didn't, I mean, she didn't even ask me. She just bought the tickets. And Kay, do you want to come be on the show? This is the day of surprise. So we were supposed to do a couple of videos. And moms here early, which describes because Jace was late. So, all right.

Now we understand. So mom's popping in. I've gone on record saying I have showed up late and dirty my entire life. They goodness, Kaylee wasn't here to witness. How about a little heads up the day before? Al sent me an email a week ago. What would have happened if Al would have sent Phil an email a week ago and said we changed the time?

I don't even know what an email is, so that would be hard. Thank you. But I sent an email and I texted to Dad's handlers and he gets the word. Jason needs more handlers. So here's what happened, Kay. I was in the middle of a story about you, and then I heard your voice. We heard you cackling outside.

Yeah. That is funny. It's like seance or something. Yeah, we did that the last bad podcast, where we took words that are actual words, and then we transformed them into words that sound better in the redneck vocabulary. Now, I could get in on that.

Yeah, I know. So, my mom, let me ask you a question. So if you were going to say somebody was going to criticize somebody, would you say that they were lamb-baseded or land-blasted? The last one. Land-blasted? Yeah. That's what I said. I made that word up.

Well, we're on the same page. Yeah, because I think it sounds better. That's scary. So. So we got another one for lamb. Can I finish? Cha-ching. We need to do a poll, an online poll.

When you are criticizing somebody, are you land blasting them or lamb basting them? I mean, you're talking about a yuppie word. You're still making a lamb-based. Not lamb-based. By the way, you can pronounce it either way. That's almost custom. Yeah, it sounds like to pronounce either way. Either way.

All right, thank you. All right, thank you. So look. But that, by the way, dad is correct. Dad corrected him. Dad corrected him. The correct English word is lamb basted. Yeah.

Or lamb basted. Well, he did have a degree in English. We talked about that. Yeah. So anyway. I never got there. So Kay, I was a part of the Redneck Parade that you were once the...

Do you remember being the Grand Marshal? I was a Grand Marshal. But guess what? I didn't choose to be there. It just... I was driving by and it swallowed me up. I was in it for two hours. Yeah.

How did I miss that event when Ms. Kay was the queen of the VB? That was Saturday. So anyway, what I was going to tell you is... How did he miss that, Mom? Because you didn't tell Dad you were going to be the... I'm sure I told him 10 times, and he'd tune me out, like he always does. At this place, I'm never going to get through this story. Well, welcome, Mom, to the podcast, because then you're never going to...

Hang on, before you tell, let's take a break. So we get tickets to the Chosen Christmas special, so we invited our neighbors, love your neighbor. Yeah. So it was Missy and I. and a couple that lives right next to us. And so when I get there, I hear this voice, you know, after a week, because we've already paid for our tickets.

We walk in. And I looked up and I thought, I noticed one of your friends. And I was like, but I called her name out, which was Lynn. But evidently, she can't hear because she just ignore me. And I kept hearing this voice, you know, and I was like, it sounds like my mom. I told Missy that. We looked.

It was like, no, we were looking too high. And lo and behold, here she come. I said, why am I not surprised the premiere at the movie theaters of the Christmas special, which I loved. Did you like it? I loved it. So if you need some family activity to do, I tell you what was weird about it is as it went on, I felt like I was at a service, a gathering. I did too.

Of church people. But once in our theater, because it was oversold, so they had to go into two theaters, you were actually in a different room than I was. Well, I tried to find it, and I couldn't. I know, because it was an overflow crowd. But once someone erupted in applause, because at first they, I don't want to ruin the thing for you, but they show a few music videos, Christmas songs, kind of contemporary, like, which we like. And then they had the Christmas episode.

And they had a few speeches in there. It was like a Christmas special. So it's just like one of those fathom specials is what they call it? Yeah, that's what it is. Because I thought it was just an episode, Christmas style of The Chosen. So I don't. And I was like, boy, the undercard is less than a while. And Missy's like, this is the show.

She leaned over and said, this is it. I was thinking, you kept waiting for the next day. Well, where's, you know, because it kept just, they were kept singing songs. And I was like, do we sing? But about halfway through there, people started singing. They did in our theater. Yeah. Then people started clapping.

Then we got a few amends. And I had to constantly remind myself, we're in a movie theater, which was, that was the coolest part of it. Right. And I'll tell you another thing, when it ended, because it was probably, what, two hours and 15 minutes? Yeah. Nobody left. They just sat there, I know. They just sat there and hung out.

Kind of like you do fellowship in at church, I thought, well, this is awesome. That's when you know something different than movie, when everybody is just running to get out at the end of it. It was a really good night. So if you want to... That's what our culture is missing in all this. Oh, I know. It was awesome. So since you brought it up, I forgot all about this.

So I'll bring this to your attention to you. So a friend of mine is a guy named Barry Loudermilk, and he's a, congressman from Georgia in D.C. And so he sent me this picture because he and I talk a lot. And in fact, one of the videos we're doing today is for Bart. Remember the guy that went with us to Europe? Yeah. The guy's our bodyguard.

Yeah. So he's retiring. But anyway, so you recognize this guy, days. And we'll show the picture to the audience. So you know this. Oh, yeah. That's the act of the. That's Jesus on the Chosen.

Right. So they gave him a tour of the Capitol. Barry did. But I want you to look above his head. Now, that was totally. No, that is crazy That was totally not planned What is it?

I'm going to show you. Look, there's a cross There's a statue behind him Way across the room Nobody's going to believe that It's like the moth with it Look, that's like the moth With two snakes for wings

It's just a coincidence Look at that So Barry sent me this picture And he was like, you know, we gave him a tour And then he said, look above his head And I was like, look at because I didn't notice it at first And I was like, look at that This is the actor that plays Jesus at on the Chosen.

Yeah. But they took that shot just from across the room. Nobody thought about what was behind him, but it happened to be a statue that had a cross on top, which was really pretty awesome. You think about it. It's almost like the Almighty said, hey, let me. And to the skeptic, I'll say, you know what?

Because they say, that's just a coincidence. Yeah, but when you look for Jesus, you'll find the cross. There you go. Wow. Okay. This is what we do. This is the unashamed podcast. Off the cuff.

And I'm so shocked that Jason talks the most. Now that is something in it, Jason. Well, your husband sometimes is not in the mood to talk. Oh, he's not. Maybe he thinks he can't get in. So what do you think about the charge? They're making a charge against me. I don't laugh enough.

I hurt Phil's feelings because I told like three or four really good jokes and he just never. this was last week. Yeah, sometimes he either don't get it. He's tuned you out or something because I say funny things and he didn't. So I get right in his face and then I do it. And so he gets it there. I'm going to draw a line there. Does he laugh when you're right in his face?

He chuckles sometimes. Well, look, so Mom, I hadn't planned for this. I hadn't planned for you to be here early. And so since you're here, we'll pivot a little bit. So let's talk a little bit. This is your favorite time of the year. Correct. Because you love Christmas, right?

Correct. Thanksgiving, right into Christmas. A lot of eating, a lot of cooking and food, which is. And decorations. Decorations. So let's tell a few, you know, holidays stories about, you know, from growing up. What, what, why was Christmas so special to you? I mean, and was it like that in your family or was it just later?

because of us. No, in my family, we went to nannies, my grandmother's, who I live with, you know, half the time. But it was the neatest thing. See, she had a big living room. She had a big dining room, but it was closed off. So those two rooms in the winter were ice cold. I mean, you didn't go in there because unless you had your heavy coat on. And that's the way they did. They wouldn't dare heat the whole house. We'd never heard of that. Well, that's where they needed to hide their Christmas presents. Well, I'm sure they could. If you had to have had any. Yeah. They were real funny. They did not put out the presents till right before the day we opened them, Christmas Eve. So not like they were under the tree or Christmas. Is that who taught you this, the game where every year you would tell us we wouldn't have any Christmas presents?

I made that up all by myself. But you did it every year. And every year we would have them. I know. After a while, I thought maybe she's just saying this. But it always seemed to work. It worked out. Well, yeah, because I didn't think I could get something.

And then I got a good charge credit and I got presents. And I thought, yeah, you didn't know that. So what I did was then I can buy presents now. It took me two years to pay them off, but I got them. There's no telling you what those presents costs in the long haul, right? Right. Well, I'll say on behalf of Jason and I and our siblings, we're glad you went to that measure to make sure we had a little something.

Well, I wouldn't dare not. What's your famous line, Ms. Kay, Bill, I've been poor with you and I've been rich with you. Rich is better. That's true. It's not fun to wait until the last minute and think, how can I get that? Well, I think that's, I mean, my, you know, psychological, I guess, evaluation is this. Then when we came along and the business took off, then Christmas kind of went kind of crazy, kind of chaos for a while. They were just piles of stuff because it was like,

I'll tell you what, we didn't have much for 25 years, but we're going to pile up now. Somebody burned up a $50 bill. That was the first year. Mom decided to give out $50 bills to all of us. And then mine got caught up in the trash burning of the wrapping paper. That's actually against the law to burn. Yeah. You broke the law and I lost the $50 bills.

We burned for years. No, you can burn. You can't burn actual money. Well, nobody wanted to burn. We couldn't find that $50. So what's funny, that's been 25 years ago. And mom has never given cash since, only checks. And she was like, no, you won't burn my $50.

So now she'll put a check in the, you did it. You know what's interesting, Kay, in our society now in the fintech world, now the big, the new payment is to buy now, pay later. Those are the hottest stocks on the market. Companies that say you can buy something, but you pay later. Why would they do that? Because of people like you. Yeah.

Because then in Christmas, you could go buy and then pay later. It's like, you remember layaway? I thought, this is Kay. I used to layaway. It's just a, it's a sophisticated way to do layaway. Everything makes it come back. But then I would always lose my ticket to get my stuff back. So I would say, well, can I just go back there and show you what it?

And she said, no, you can't go in the back of our store. I was just going to go look around through the layaway. Let's take another break. But, you know, the layaway, if you didn't go back and pay for it, then they just put it all back on the shell. They did. Isn't that stupid you had to have your receipt? I mean, who's going to, what kind of kind man?

I mean, I'm guessing they're out there. Would go up there and make up a story on I bought the wrong size shirt. I don't have the ticket. Here it is. And they're like, well, you don't have that receipt. So I decided today to get this crappy $7 sweater and bring it back. But I don't have the receipt, so go away. I mean, you're right.

In the computer era, we are to be moving on from paper receipts. Now, most of the time, they'll email it to you anyway. You don't even get a paper receipt unless you just. Well, I ask for them because I don't email. What do you do with all your paper receipts? Where are they at? I put them in a drawer for a while, and then I throw them all away. That's right.

So I'm saying you can pretty much just bypass the whole, you know, hoarding process of that by just throwing, you know, saying, I mean. Well, yesterday, we, we. went so Sunday the next day we went to a it was kind of a Christmas themed church service so I did two in in one weekend but they showed a movie they showed parts of the Grinch I had never seen that movie the original Grinch the cartoon it was Jim Carrey was in it that's a yeah updated so what was that maybe seven or eight years ago seven or eight years ago seven years they did that at the church no out the whole everybody over here

said. What is it, Josh? It seemed 20 years maybe. Oh, good, man. I had never seen that. The original Grinch is far better. Well, it was actually pretty good, though, because it was, now they weren't, like, focused on Jesus.

Of course, the preacher was making it because focused on Jesus, which was awesome. But what I liked about it. All right. You were right. That was wrong. 2000. 21 years ago. Yeah, what was that other thing?

We were going to get Missy to clarify. Oh, we're going to do that. Remind me, babe. That's going to be the same conclusion there. You will get scalded on that way. Which is very rare to hear a Robertson say, you were right. You were right. That was wrong.

Never. Well, we just heard it. You just heard it, Mom. We just had a groundbreaking. Well, who did? So, Mom, when do you think the original Grinch came out? I don't know. Take a guess.

Okay. 1959. All right. I'm still looking. I'll get back to text. Well, let me tell my story. Well, I was going to say it was different, but they were basically the movie, which I had never seen. Missy's like, that's embarrassing.

Don't tell anybody. So I'm telling everybody. It was a pretty good movie. And they didn't show the whole movie. They just took out the best parts, I think. And so. Are you talking about the Grinch? Well, this Jim Carrey version of the 2000 version.

But they were, they might have taken out anything that wasn't Chargers Savvy, too. I don't know because I'd never see them. I'm sure they did. But it was really, you know, it's not about the presence. It's not about the money. It's not about the lights and the trees. And, of course, they were like, it's about, you know, the relationships with people. Of course, we're our relationship with God is, they should have started with, it's about Jesus.

Then the relationship, because relationships are better when that is your foundation. That's right. So it was a great experience. I just thought I'd bring that up. So the original Grinch was made the year. after I was born, the year Lisa was born. She's in the waist. 1966.

Well, I was close. You were close. You said 49? 56. Oh, 56. Okay. That's not what I said. Yeah, you do.

We can roll the tape, but I heard 56. Right. Thank you. 59's what you said. I knew there was a 9. Thank you. So you were wrong. You were right.

Closer. That's two Robertsons in one podcast that said we were wrong. Technically, you were off by seven years. A lot can happen in seven. years. That's not true, is it, Lisa. Thank you. So the Grinch, the song, Sa did the song on our Christmas.

And he didn't. It was really good. I didn't know he could sing that. Well, it was in his voice range. Yeah. That's right, because it's lower. Grinchy. No, I was thinking Grinchy. Who's the old black guy that sang that original song? There's a big old black guy that sang, you're real white.

Burl eyes? No, he's a big white guy. But no, wrong color. it was someone had to look it up over there this turned into trivia do you remember when y'all used to take us to movies on Christmas Eve

I remember that and we saw once upon a time in the West yeah do you remember because I guess Phil wouldn't have went to Santa Claus would it you spent most of the time with your hands over my eyes oh yeah well

that's what I had to do So is this right, Tyler the Creator? Is that right, John? The saying the group. I don't even know. It says Tyler the Creator, but I don't think that's right. I just think that in our society, if people take a time out and acknowledge anything good dealing with Christmas that might plant a seed to Jesus, I'm for it. Well, that's me.

And yeah, there's a lot of, a lot of times churches will be kind of in the mode of, we don't know when, Jesus was born, so we don't want to talk about it. I was like, let's talk about him all the time. I think it's a great thing to talk about since we're right in the middle of the Pharisee and teachers of the law segment. I mean, everything you do in life, just even when we were talking about this moth, that its wings looks like the snakes, we're using that to point people to the creator. Right.

Taking something that was created. And so any excuse you can have to get people for the meaning of Christmas, specifically Jesus, Because people aren't going to embrace Jesus until they experience Jesus. But you've got to have some kind of seed planted somewhere that makes them want to at least check it out. Right. Let's take our last break. So I was just thinking, Mom, what of my greatest Christmas memories of recent years. And this has been a few, say, recent, I guess within 20 years, was I was going to hunt with Dad on a Christmas morning because usually a lot of people hunt that day because we had our family.

So we brought the girls out, at least not it, and we spent the night. And you and Dad had just gotten the fireplace that you had enough. It was a new fireplace. One of our buddies put it in. And apparently he didn't do something quite right. He didn't double-deck it or whatever. Where the wood met the fireplace. A little close to the wood.

So, you know, it's cold. It was one of those cold nights, cold Christmases. We didn't have central heating either. So did you get up early, Dad? Were you the one that first since? Of course he did. I got up early. I got up because at that time I could smell like a coyote.

And I smelled smoke. That's right. And it was 3.30 in the morning. It was about an hour before we were supposed to get up and go hunting. So dad comes in and he's like, I smell smoke. Well, I said, well, we had a fire last night in the fireplace. So what had happened was the fire had gone down to the floor joy. underneath the house.

Yep. And it's just glowing red. Luckily, there wasn't any wind because you had stuff up around the buying your house. So all of a sudden, we went into at 3.30 of the morning, everybody's up. We're hauling water.

If I'm not mistaken, it was a big freeze. So we were having to use big old... Yeah, we didn't have the electricity on the... No electricity. Or any water. So we're having to haul water from where we can find it. Them five-gallon things of water. Dad's got a sledgehammer.

And he's just busting the brand new fireplace to get where you can put water down there. I had the sledgehammer and I said, this is brand new. I understand. But up underneath there, there's a fire there. And I've got to get to it. And I got to go to it with this sledgehammer and back up. And she said, you have to tear the floor up? I said, I have to tear it up.

And I just started coming down on it. It started disintegrating. And we started pouring the water to it. By the time the fire department got there, he said, the only way you could have stopped that fire was what you did. I said, then they gave a dad like a sticker, like an honorary fire. Yeah, we'll patch it up.

We'll patch it up later. The worst part, they broke the windows coming in. Like, why didn't they come in the door? I remember the broken windows. We tore up a pretty good bit, but we got the fire put out. No, but look. Got it rebuilt and it turned out fine. But we were on fire and it would have burned the house down.

So two things, Jays of note, you'll appreciate this. So number one, Anna, my oldest daughter. Anna was in there picking out, not taking everybody's gifts under the tree because we got a fire. She only picked out her gifts. It was taking them out. I'm not going to lose everything. That's Grinch like qualities.

I was like, have a fire. Grab my presence. That's right. But not your sisters or everybody else. So that was one thing. It was funny. And the second thing was we go through this whole ordeal. The fire department is there.

It's like, okay. we're okay, the house is not going to burn down, but everything's just in smashed and disarray. Dad says, well, it's about 4.30. It's time to go ahead. I remember that I was there. I was like, you're going to duck hunting? Because I thought, well, what if it kicks back up a little bit?

The fire department pulled out heading back to town, and we all started heading toward the duck blinds. And left me with a semi-burning house. No, it was put out. No, I think I'll remember the words. He says, if it catches up, just go out to the yard. So if I'm not mistaken, we moved Christmas that year to your house. Yeah.

That's when you lived on Tidwell Road. That was a smaller house. That's right. Thank you for reminding. Okay, I was pulling. I forgot about the fire, but. The great fire of whatever year that was. Anna was like a teenager, so I think it was right.

Yeah. That was a great Christmas memory. And then we spent it with Jay said his house. Well, you don't have to give anything this year, Kay. Here's why. You actually gave me the greatest present ever. what was it when you taught her how to cook those sweet potato pies oh man knocked it out of the parts and i told her i said you know what this means we got to do this for christmas because she did it for thanksgiving

and i told her i said no shortcuts no shortcuts don't buy sweet potatoes as i can thank you bake them take them out of the you know skin i told her everything i said every step i got must be done don't make it easier see that's what women do younger women. They make their own adjustments and when they get through, they've run the pot. She actually when I tasted it,

I thought, this is actually equal to, if not better, then well, I'm going to tell you the story. And she said, well, I use because we have chickens and ducks in Tennessee, she said I use

the duck eggs for the eggs. Oh, yeah. That could have made better. For the crust because they claim it's flakier than chicken eggs. Well, it was a little richer flavor. So I thought, wow. Those eggs are, yeah. Is it more yellow?

Yeah, more yellow. Well, they're actually almost orange. Yeah. And they're twice as big as the chicken eggs. Well, it was like six. The recipe, your recipe called for six, I think. She used four because they're quite bigger. They're bigger.

Yeah. So, and that was a nice little bonus. Bonapit. Yeah, and there's a, well, Jason, I wasn't here. so tell us we know how much time left. So you're a grandfather now. Yeah, look, and it's been exciting. It's great.

You know, we've laughed, we've cried. It's been awesome. The only thing I'm upset about is the name. I mean, complete debacle. Paul. That's what they're going to call me. Really? Paul.

Paul. After all this. We had a Paul. I don't know. Maybe if you start smoking. So you know, What, now I know why Paul never said much. That's right.

He was angry. He didn't like his name. He didn't like it. So he said 30 words and 30 years of my life span. And you know why? He didn't like me called Paul. And I don't know. You.

What would you had rather it had been? Well, at this stage, anything else. Pat Paul. Yeah, just something loudly, Paul. Yeah, it's given, it's so plain. And you're anything but plain. Most of the Matt Dillon episodes, they use. Paul.

Well, here's the problem. But for the dad. You know why I don't like it is outlawed Josie Wells. You know, he's the young boys under the blanket. He's been shot. And Eastwood is there. And then here comes these two fellers, kind of representing Redneck USA. And they got us Mr. Josie Wales.

And so the youngster under who had been shot, he's like, I got the gold right here, Paul. Yeah. And he said, what goes he talking about? And he's like, there's no goat. He's crazy. You know, and he's like, Laj, take a look under that there blanket until he opens the blanket. Boom. You know, and he's like.

He's used Lige first. But right before that, he said, shut up, I'm not your paw. Shut up. And he kicks him. Yeah, and he kicked him. You know, most people's family don't memorize a whole movie, but that one, every member of our family memorized that movie. It didn't try to memorize it. It just became a fabric of my brain.

Eastwood said that was his best, best movie. Yeah, well, it was. It was one of his early director. But I'm like, now I'm pa. Paul? Yeah, you're pa. How does it feel, Jay, to be a grandp? Well, it feels a little weird.

I mean, I've... You don't feel old enough to be a grandpa, do you? Tell the truth. I realize now I've gone from just being a man to get to an older man to kind of a creepy man. You know, when you're a grandpa, you're kind of creepy. No, no, no. Jay, you've just entered a zone where you're called grand. Grand...

Well, that would have worked. And it worked for me. You want us to call you that? Great. Even more than grand. I'm great and grandpa. So you're like, we're like, we're moving up, Jay's. Moving on up.

Well, you know what it means, Jay's, and you were already there, but when you get the grandchildren, it solidifies it. You are now your own patriarch. Like, dad's still all of our patriarch, but you're your own patriarch in your family. Well, here's my plan. I think when she gets old enough to... to understand the English language when I would talk with her. And I was going to say, look,

they want you to call me Paul. But do you have any other ideas? Yeah. And I think we'll go there. So Jason, I'll give you a little glimpse into the future. And the same thing happened with mom and dad is last night,

my 16-year-old granddaughter and her boyfriend come in to just get advice from Lisa and I, you know, because we're the grandparents. And I thought, yeah, this is pretty much the deal. I mean, now you're a 16-year-old. old dating granddaughter. Now, before she talks to her folks, she wants to run it by the grandparents

and because she knows, you know, we're going to give her some sage advice. So I told Lisa, I said, getting old stinks in every aspect except for the wisdom. Yeah, I told Jay, Jay Stone, he's cooking for us now. It's a great cook. And he's a deer slayer. He, uh, I told him, he ought to date your daughter. I said, you ought to date my granddaughter. I said, I'm giving you the right to even do this. However, I said, you have to talk to Al. Don't bypass me. Her father.

Well, that's where I thought Al was going. I said, tell him, I've cleared you. I said, tell him I've cleared you that'll help you. I said, but you tell them, could you date her? I'm not given you permission to date her. I'm saying you are to, she'll make you a good woman. When my grandkids come to me for advice, I'm going to say, go ask your parents. No, but here's

the thing though, Jess, you'll do what I did. You'll share the advice, and you'll say, Here's what I think. But go talk to your folks because ultimately they make decisions. But what I'm saying is that that's what's new for Jay's is now you've got the layers. Yep. You know, for you, dad, you and mom, I mean, y'all are still in pretty good shape. There may be a fourth layer.

You may be a great, great grandpa. It could happen. Before this life is over. If the almighty allows it. You'll be there. I was being honest. I was feeling the big older. Yeah, I'm this health of America.

You just keep them pies coming home. There we go. There we go. Mom, thank you for, we had to push Kaylee to the next podcast. So you now have filled in for Kaylee Meccanini. If I could only look like her. Well, you once did. I once did without blonde.

Resurrection. Resurrection. Oh, that's, yeah. Resurrection. Yeah. Perfect figure. You got it. If we even have a figure.

Hopefully next time we'll have Kayle. And that's all she wrote. That's all she wrote. Thanks for listening to the Unashamed podcast. Help us out. by rating us on iTunes. And don't miss an episode by subscribing on YouTube and be sure to click that little bell
