right yeah we’re not we’re not bringing our best work today well I don’t know it might it might roll it might roll right around and get real good here in a little while yeah if we get if we get a little loopy I I was going uh talk about when you y’all came home uh a couple of weeks ago and where we got you got recognized by all those people at Highway 55 they just had to have your picture and have you been telling people this story after how do you tell this story well I told her I said we when y’all came home that that weekend and came by and we were going out to supper with uh Nana and Auntie seeing we did it kind of finally got worked out because my son had made plans that he was going to bring food to the house and then that didn’t come to fruition so we ended up said I want to go to Highway 55 so we went to Highway 55 yeah I throwed you under the bus yeah I mean but you know things happen y’all was nice yeah Christy’s like when link when link is in charge this is what happens because we showed I told nana I was like hey we have these two funerals it’s all pretty last minute but I want to be able to see you and uh I’m gonna see Mom but there’s only this one night and then she said well Charles and Nancy are going to be up here I was like okay tell him to come on and like I’ll tell Aunt TC to come on too and I just I told nana I was like I think we’ll be there around four o’clock and then we can figure out we can just get something for dinner we can don’t worry I didn’t want her to worry about last minute having to make dinner for everybody you know so I said don’t worry about it we’ll just we’ll pick something up and bring it or we can go get something because there’s always Bojangles you know I always the tailgate special I didn’t want to put I didn’t want to put that on the spot so that’s where I left it and then when we showed up of course it was like yeah it was 5 30. it wasn’t four I think and she had like set the table I mean everything was ready to go no food because I did not bring any food I was like you know what we’ll just we’ll just hang out and then we’ll just get in the car and we’ll go we’ll go somewhere we had already eaten at Bojangles I didn’t want to get Bojangles again and I kind of wanted to try Highway 55. well it hey it worked out good we went back to Nana’s and because it was close to Lando’s birthday we had a birthday had cake candles for Lando on the birthday cake and got to sit around and talk and just have a good time for a little while so I thought it worked out pretty good I thought it worked out pretty good too and all those people that was in there working I I thought it was uh when the girl that well I can’t remember what her name was but the young girl that was waiting on us came out and she finally just fessed up she says I I know who you are she was talking to you and I said yeah and then she wanted to know if she could get a picture with you yeah I asked him I said do you do you

uh yeah it says a man is sitting at a bar yeah said a man is sitting at a ball when he looks over and sees another man sitting and watches the tiniest person play the littlest piano he approaches a nasty man where he met this tiny man the man replies from this Genie bottle there’s still one wish left you can have it oh the man grabs the bottle and wishes for a million bucks only for a million deer to spout from the bottle whoops what the hell I didn’t ask for that the man chaps and the other man replies what do you think he said link he said well I didn’t ask for what did he ask for that he got like the genie to play piano I think that’s where the punch line is a 10 inch piano I didn’t ask for a 10 inch pianist a 10 inch pianist pianist yep pianist pianists 10 inch I don’t know if I was gonna ask for if I was going to ask for an upgraded pianist pianist I don’t know what’s the what is the link that I should be asking for I I think it should be longer than that right um that that’s getting all out there pretty good 10 inches [Laughter] yeah I mean I’ve I’m what are we going to talk about right now are we going to talk about if we’re happy with the length of our wieners yes we are and yes I am old as I am I’m tickle slammed to death with mines oh with the way you said it though I pictured you slamming it in a door like you were tickling it with a door but then you got a little too aggressive and you slammed into the door tickled slam to death is that I mean that’s literally what that means don’t be don’t be don’t be playing with yourself with a door Dad I’m telling you yeah so I ain’t gonna slam it nowhere so don’t worry about it yeah yeah don’t do that okay well I got another email from Landon Hollis and it says if a twosome is sex with two people and a threesome is six with three people then now I know why I keep getting called handsome I thought you were going in a foursome Direction but you went the other way you got me handsome I guess it’s not always a compliment sometimes it’s a commentary on loneliness yeah I I don’t see I’m glad you understood it better than I did I still don’t know if I’ve I’ve downloaded what that means yet or not but hand hand there’s only a hand oh okay thank you see I told you we was I’m still in a little fog today so we’re fogging right along all right as long as we’re handsome doing it that’s all that matters right so I I’m glad I’m not handsome I’m just handsome handsome yeah that’s right okay yeah all right okay okay I got I got a uh pretty serious email from Eliza abendroth okay abendroth and Eliza I wanted to tell you this to start with I said uh that’s a pretty unusual first name because that was my great grandmother’s name on my mama’s side of the family do you remember your great grandma Eliza well no I don’t I I don’t ever remember but I Remember Mama and grandma grandmother talking about her and how she was and different things and here her name brought up because you know mama’s mama’s name was Shirley but they called her shyly because they thought that was the way they were supposed to pronounce surely was Charlie so that was what she was called so her parents called her Shirley but everybody else called her shyly no every her parents called her shyly too yep Okay so so they didn’t know how to spell shyly or they didn’t know how to say sure no they spelled it they I don’t think I just don’t think they knew how to uh say surely to pronounce it how do you name a kid something that you don’t even know how to say that’s the strangest thing it’s like out of all the needs you can pick Let’s name our kids something that we can’t say [Laughter] they figured out how they wanted to say it I guess that was what she was known all her life but on her birth certificate it was Shirley surely but Eliza sent me this email and says how can I have a heart-to-heart talk with my dad when we’re hundreds of miles apart my my dad isn’t great at talking about sad or difficult things he doesn’t bring those kinds of topics up on his own and if someone else does he changes the topic pretty quick I need to have a conversation with him that I think will be a little uncomfortable or difficult what should I do you know my first thing would be to probably tell you that when you call and talk to him you just leave it kind of light to start with and y’all just carry on a conversation and going on and then get to the down to where you think he’s comfortable talking to you and say Dad I really need to have a heart-to-heart talk with you I I got some things I need to go over with you and and then you you also need to reiterate said I need for you to listen to me not just hear me but listen to me oh because it sounds like you know if he’s wanting to change the subject that might would help that you’re reiterating that you know I I don’t want you I don’t want you to just to hear me I want you to listen to what I’m saying think about them yeah you know what I’ve got to say here you got kind of got to get into our heads a little bit and maybe get into thinking that okay my daughter’s pretty serious about what she’s wanting to talk to me about you know you just you just kind of in a uncomfortable situation trying to trying to talk to your dad about something and he’s in an uncomfortable situation because he don’t like to talk about this kind of stuff no way so you you you might be in between a rock and a hard place of me and if he don’t listen to you and kind of what I’ve told you the next time you’re home maybe you’ll have to maybe you’ll just have to wait and sit down and whether or not it’ll wait or not but um that’s kind of the best information I can give you about going over and maybe trying to get him to listen to you and see what’s going on so well Dad just give it a shot you know I’m impressed I’m impressed with your advice here I think this is some good information especially like couching the subject like you start off light you you warm up the conversation in a way that’s normal and then you say hey I’m about to give you a preamble to something this conversation is taking a turn for the serious and I know you don’t like to go there but I’m just giving you the heads up don’t just hear me I need to listen boy you there’s lots of good catch phrases in there man dad you should you should be a a dad um Offspring communication counselor because that’s some good stuff that you just dropped on them yeah yeah and Dad I think this is something that I’m realizing you do this with me like sometimes we’ll be on the phone and you’ll be like now we’ll be taught we’ll be shooting the breeze and then all of a sudden you’ll be like now there’s something I need to ask you about like that and you like your tone will totally change and I’ll be like who what oh mind trouble what has he heard now or there’s something there’s something I need to talk to you about sometimes you put it like that it’s either a question or it’s a and it but every time it’s never as big of a deal as you’ve built it up to be it makes me scared dad well I’m probably not going to stop so you have to get ready for the next one and and you do it over text too oh yeah you’re like do you know what I’m about to say you’ll send me these scary texts out of nowhere do you know what I’m talking about yeah what what do you say what are you saying when when you’re wrong when I called and told you that when we were eating that night in Highway 55 and you brought up that suit I asked you about that suit you had on you said you told everybody at the table how much you paid for it well they asked somebody asked no you know I don’t think I did not volunteer that yes you did we were talking about the suit that I was wearing on Fallon the last time I was on Fallon and I’m sorry that you didn’t get an invitation maybe next time yeah that’s yeah we’ll keep working it I’m sure you’ll get on there yeah yeah you didn’t seem too jealous but yeah somebody asked what they were like what’s that suit I was like well it’s got hunting dogs and somebody said how much was your suit no I asked you where did that suit come from I don’t think anybody asked you how much it cost I ain’t gonna sit there and just brag about how much something cost I was embarrassed of how much it cost oh yeah well your nana was embarrassed too because she’d give me up the country and your mama weren’t too proud of me you got to drop a pretty penny if you want to have a you if you want to have if he’s going to O’Fallon Hey you can’t you can’t not Splurge a little bit I mean with Demand on the talk show circuit he is the man so you know you got to you got to match the man you got to have the right paraphernal that’s right you got to have the right paraphernalia yeah yeah you did text me about that and you said I think the text then was next time you buy something don’t go telling you Nana how much you spend on it basically your message yeah yeah but no the thing that you’ll do in text to me that scares me is out of the blue you’ll say I need you to call me oh yeah well that’s just hey it’s just hard to get up with you on the telephone and sometimes I just what I want to tell you it is not what I want to tell you on a text yeah but then when I call you it’s it’s just small talk maybe it’s just cause I’m gonna instead of this text and I want to hear your voice and talk to you well that’s that’s the way I I appreciate that way I get you to do it yeah yeah you make me think it’s an emergency I need to talk to you as soon as you can oh yeah but what about call me when you can or give me a ring get how about just give me a ring well uh sometimes I wonder when I just uh if I’m not as explicit with you as busy as you are you deserve me over to the side like in Highway 55 yeah pulled me out over there but just you just you got some I know you got a busy life and you got stuff going on so maybe this is my that’s that’s my way of getting you to call sooner than it works two or three days later it works I need you to call me and well I gotta talk to you right now about nothing immediately I have to immediately talk about not to your back it’s not nothing I know it’s not nothing it’s like it’s usually something like I mean before this podcast it was I need you to call me I’ll be like hey what’s up and be like I got recognized yesterday like that’s what it would be it would be this fight it would be this podcast it’s exactly what it would be I mean these are the conversations that we have like every time we would talk you you would have a new I got recognized

Hartley pool Hartley pool 11 Hartley pool yeah I’m married man several times you also love dancing I was wondering if you have any advice for advice for a first dance what songs have you had first dances to oh well uh when Nancy and I got married we had a song from uh Jimmy James in the bag of bones and the name of it is Come to Me Softly and it’s a slow song okay uh but it’s got a lot of meaning to it and me and her and listened to it and we liked it and so we just sat down one day and kind of went over kind of because you know link you were there we I was had a uh got married on the beach and then that night all of her friends carried us out and uh to fat hurls and we went dancing the night we got married and when we went in there I went up front up there and asked Amanda uh the DJ to play that song and they stopped the floor and told about us getting married and let us had a dance floor to our staff and played the song for us and did you come to her softly yes I did good A lot of times I I mine and Nancy song to come on the radio and I call her on the phone I said they’re playing our song so for me and Christy Our Song Our like first dance song was uh the country I’ll say country slash bluegrass band Diamond Rio country music in the 90s well I love me some Diamond Rio oh yeah and uh their song well it’s now I know how the river feels but I think it’s I guess that’s the whole title oh that’s a that’s a sweet song This basically talks about how you know once you find the person you’re supposed to be with forever it’s just like now I know how the river feels when it reaches the sea finally finds the place it was always meant to be I’ll play that for a couple of weekends ago we were just kind of having some snuggle time and I was playing some music and I didn’t tell her and I kind of like I put on a few songs that were special to us including that one and it’s nice it’s good yeah it slipped it right I came to her softly with it yeah and uh so it’s nice to have it’s nice to have a song Ashley don’t I don’t want to put too much pressure on you yeah you know you’ll have other songs but what whatever something that means something to the two of you right now we can’t recommend that it has to come it has to come from the two of you yeah yeah a little bit of Lionel Richie won’t hurt though if you want to go that direction the lion will never hurt nobody now it’s time for a word from our sponsor we gotta add this week I gotta had a lot of people sent me some emails me it was the best golf courses in Myrtle Beach and how you’ve been golfing more like you said you would well I did play golf twice last week oh well give us the ad I’m gonna give you two places that I played golf last week and one of them is was it Beechwood Golf Course right down the road from the house here at North Myrtle Beach and it’s a good golf course it’s not too hard it’s not too long but it’s got some good greens and we just had we just always have a good time down at Beechwood when we go down there and and play golf and and it’s pretty easy to get a tea time down there and then the other place I went and played was it’s up North Carolina called metal Meadowlands and uh it’s a little more plus golf course but it it’s really nice and got some greens and uh that a little harder to read and stuff that you do but you need to look up Meadowlands Golf Course too so

you’re gonna write down your answer and I’m going to write down what I think your answer is yes all right I’m writing down your catchphrase it I think correct no I I put on there don’t listen that dog won’t hunt that dog won’t oh is that how it’s w-a-n-t that dog so the dog wants to hunt yeah no it’s just if you tell me something then uh and I’ll say you know that ain’t that’s not really how it’s gonna happen what’s going on I said that dog won’t hunt yeah I know but you spelled it you spelled it w-a-n-t which totally negates the meaning of it that dog won’t hunt meaning that dog desires to hunt is the opposite that ain’t what it means it means that dog won’t won’t mean that’s not gonna happen w-o-n apostrophe T I’m just saying I’m sorry to be the grammar police I’m just well all right so I missed that one what’s the next one what’s my biggest pet peeve uh hmm who’s your daddy I think it’s work related and I think it’s delinquent payments like somebody says they’re supposed to pay

do huh let it out dad listen this is this is a safe place for you to let your anger out look straight at me as if I’m somebody who’s been late but not me just like a general late person you know one of those person people that’s always late to stuff oh yeah they want to make one of them Grand entrances yeah talk to that person and just let it out it’s a it’s a make-believe person you can get all the anger out and we can move on well you know you this party started at eight o’clock or this meeting started at eight o’clock it didn’t mean 8 15. it didn’t mean 10 minutes after eight it means it meant for you to be here at eight o’clock so your ass should have got up 10 minutes earlier and been here on time so next time you’re told and need to be here be somewhere at a certain time start a little early and be on time because I don’t like people that ain’t on time but [Music] hey call somebody that cares don’t bother me I took a wrong turn Charles don’t do the wrong turn you should have
