Speaker 1 (00:00):
I always like when people have a sense of humor,
and that even goes to the obituaries. There's a guy
who passed away and in his last will and testament,
he asked his family to bury him in a coffin
that looked like a giant Snickers bar. So imagine a
coffin with a wrapper peeling back, and there's this guy

(00:20):
and it says Snickers on the side. That's exactly what happened.
He said to his family. I just want everybody to
know that I was nuts.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
And creative to the grave and creative.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
Yes, for sure.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
It's kind of a bad idea though, because if you
got Snickers to sponsor your funeral and they could, you know,
decorate your casket or whatever, wouldn't you want to do
something on your tombstone to really help them get a
little bang for their buck.

Speaker 4 (00:44):
Oh you know, I wonder if he just didn't think
about this, If it's so much thought and time into
the casket.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Right, because that's six point that's six feet underground, nobody's
ever going to see it.

Speaker 5 (00:54):
Kind of a shame.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
But if you made your tombstone look like maybe the
top of the tombstone was coming out of a Snickers
bar wrapper would be even better.

Speaker 6 (01:02):
I just that he was buried with a bunch of
Snickers that.

Speaker 4 (01:07):
Or he's like, I know everybody's coming to my funeral,
they'll see it here. Nobody's coming to check on me later.
So what's the point?

Speaker 5 (01:14):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:14):
So if you had a company that you wanted to
sponsor your casket or your tombstone, who would you choose?

Speaker 5 (01:21):
And why is it Taco Bell? Meghan?

Speaker 3 (01:23):
Actually it wouldn't be.

Speaker 6 (01:25):
This might be the one time I would ditch talk
about because I feel like a NASCAR.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Themed casket would just be so cool.

Speaker 6 (01:31):
Imagine you wouldn't have to have pallburs what are they called?

Speaker 3 (01:36):
We got there.

Speaker 6 (01:36):
They wouldn't have to lift you up. They could just
roll you around and one of them can sit on
top of a little wheel.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
Meghan, what happens?

Speaker 4 (01:45):
What if your NASCAR race NASCAR car casket had zen
wheels on it?

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Oh, then everyone could have zen and it's a combination.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
Yeah, it's a combination.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
We use zen wills to make your Nascar our car casket.

Speaker 6 (02:01):
Honestly, my ashes could just go in a bunch of
Zen cans and be distributed across My God, no.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
I thought about that over the weekend, because you know
how it's like leave a penny, take a penny. There
was one and it was labeled with ZIN, and I went,
oh my god, I should get one of these for Meghan,
a brand new one.

Speaker 5 (02:17):
She can just have it as a momento.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
So you would say that Meghan should go with Zin
as her sponsor, then, Blair, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:24):
I mean again, we can incorporate NASCAR too if you
really want to. But come on, we know that you
would prefer a Zin, a ZIN sponsored cask.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
All right, So Blair, who would be the company that
would sponsor yours?

Speaker 3 (02:35):
This is easy? Blue Chair Bay Room. Hello, maybe look
like the bottle, Yes exactly.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
I mean it's literally genius marketing for them, and like
we can go ahead and like solidify those If you're listening, would.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
It be bad if I went with Bass Pro Shops.
Just ask Johnny Morrison, the guys like just slap your
logo right on.

Speaker 5 (02:53):
Here will be good to go.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
Here's got to be a boat.

Speaker 6 (02:55):
It just looked like a wrapped boat.

Speaker 5 (03:00):
Eight f five grave zero jump on with us. Good morning.

Speaker 7 (03:04):
I just heard you talking about when you die, what
company you involved?

Speaker 5 (03:08):
Your would have to be doctor Peppert.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
This actually sounds really good because Blair, let's just say
that your casket was the white Monster energy drink that
you dress that you drink every single morning. So if
your casket looked like one of those, would you co
sign on that absolutely?

Speaker 4 (03:33):
Or do we just start saving all of my empty
cans now?

Speaker 3 (03:36):
And mean? Can Megan can do like a did I y?

Speaker 6 (03:40):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (03:41):
We can save some money. We can save some money.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Wasn't there that girl that made her prom dress out
of all the gum wrappers that she used to use?

Speaker 3 (03:50):
Oh yeah, a couple of years.

Speaker 5 (03:51):
Ago, same exact thing.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
We're just gonna take those cans, cut the top, cut
the bottom, lay it out and Blair will have a
monster thinking that.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
I think it's time for me to crack one.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
Crack that thing. Oh, let's hear it.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
Everybody wants to hear you track a cold one sounds
so nice. Well, thank you very much. By the way,
can you say happy birthday to Blair? We officially need
one person to say Happy.

Speaker 5 (04:18):
Bless birthday Blair.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
Thank you, miss Fluffy.

Speaker 5 (04:22):
We love you all right, we'll talk to you later on.
I care giving you all the warm fuzzies. And whatnot.
It's the good good on the Spencer Grave Show.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Imagine playing a basketball game that lasted five straight days,
one hundred and twenty one hours and three minutes to
be exact. It happened with a group of guys in Georgia. Now,
if you're wondering why did they do this, they were
raising money for a charity called Most Men Opposing Sex
Trafficking and they raised over three hundred thousand dollars.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
I think it's incredible, but I've could not. No matter
how that I wanted to be a part of this,
I would not have lasted.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
But good job by them.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
The final score of the game was like one hundred
and twenty one thousand to one hundred and twenty thousand.

Speaker 5 (05:13):
Ever ended.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
Did I hear this correctly? That you made a pot
roast over the weekend and it was actually edible?

Speaker 5 (05:20):
Blair?

Speaker 4 (05:20):
Oh, not only was it edible, it was probably the
best mill that I have ever cooked. I had a
very happy husband, and I would just like us to
all move on from the last pot roast situation.

Speaker 5 (05:33):
Well I don't think we can do that just yet.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
How many times did you call Grand jan while you
were in the process of.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
Me Roo Zero, I called no one.

Speaker 4 (05:41):
I didn't call Grand Jan, I didn't call Steve Son
Craig Zero, did not didn't do it because I knew
they would tell me not to even try it again.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Megan, are you buying that Blair made an edible pot roast.

Speaker 6 (05:53):
After hearing how traumatic the last pot roast experience was?

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Okay? Traumatic, poor Steve.

Speaker 6 (06:02):
I mean, I remember him telling us that he threw
it in the trash or something, and he's so sweet
to you.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
It must have been really bad.

Speaker 5 (06:10):
We didn't see him.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
We did see him at a show recently, and he
does look like he's lost a lot away, Blair.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
Okay, come on, now, it's been over a year, all right.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
I tell you what. Let's get him on the phone.
We'll call your husband, Steve. We'll ask him what his
honest opinion is. Although I can't truly buy it, because
you guys are in the committed relationship and what's good
for you is going to be good for him.

Speaker 8 (06:35):
Man, she made a great pot roast. I was surprised.
It was fantastic.

Speaker 5 (06:39):
So what happened?

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Give everybody the backstory and the last time that Blair
cooked for you, and it went poorly, and then she's
never cooked a day since.

Speaker 8 (06:47):
Well, I mean, you know, a few months back, I
asked her to cook a pot roast. I thought it
would be great, and then she cooked it all day
long and she served it to me and I took
I tried to take a bite. I tempted to and
then I had to spit it out.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Oh that's not that's not all. You did.

Speaker 8 (07:05):
It in the garbage. And she offered for me to
take it to the dog and I said no, I
couldn't give a dog that.

Speaker 4 (07:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Now you say it was a couple of months ago,
it feels like it was longer than that, wasn't it, Blair?

Speaker 3 (07:19):
Yeah, it was like a year ago.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
Okay, so it's been a year where Blair has not cooked.
Why did you then decide, Steve, that this was the
weekend that you wanted to give it another shot.

Speaker 8 (07:30):
Well, I was looking for her. She used to go
out and eat and I thought, if she tried.

Speaker 9 (07:34):
This.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Comes out.

Speaker 7 (07:39):
Now.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
What he hasn't told you is I did show him
the recipe because I got it off TikTok. I didn't
like want him to change his mind, so I immediately
did a Walmart delivery order, even though I had one
coming in like thirty minutes. I was like, now I'm
doing another one. I'm getting this. I'm gonna try it again.

Speaker 5 (07:55):
Where did for you come from? Though, Blair?

Speaker 4 (07:58):
You know, I've been wanting to deem myself because this
pot roast comes up often, like he comes up all
the time, and you know, Steve's birthday is coming up too,
and I'm like, I need to feed my husband, like
I need to be a good wife.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
And so I was so nervous yesterday. You can ask Steve.
I made it for him and just like watched him
eat it. Yeah, and then.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
He asked for seconds and yes, and then he said
his son, Craig is one of the best cooks in
the world.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
He's like, Craig needs to try this, and I'm like.

Speaker 5 (08:35):
I so, hang on a minute.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Does that mean that, Steve Maples, you were actually bringing
this pot roast outside the house walls and you're gonna
deliver it to somebody for them to try.

Speaker 5 (08:46):
Yes.

Speaker 8 (08:47):
I actually delivered it to my son this morning, so
we will know more later on.

Speaker 9 (08:52):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (08:53):
Greg is a very very very very good cook, like
him and grand Jan fight for that number one spot.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
So he would give us an honest opinion, because Steve.
As much as I love Steve and I love your relationship,
I know that you guys lay down together, you know
what I mean. So it's like, you guys are if
he gives you a score out of a ten, what
would you say, Steve?

Speaker 8 (09:11):
Oh, I would give her a ten.

Speaker 3 (09:13):
He told me that he would.

Speaker 4 (09:14):
He would have this often again, so like it's yeah, now, Craig,
Craig would be honest with us, don't you think, Like
I think he would give me an honest feed But yeah,
he would like that, probably probably two honest.

Speaker 8 (09:31):
Thank you.

Speaker 4 (09:32):
I feel like such a good life. I feel like
I did something right.

Speaker 5 (09:35):
Steve, Thanks buddy, Thank you Spencer for y'all. It's How
country are you? On the Spencer Grave Show. Renee, where
are you from?

Speaker 9 (09:44):
Pel City?

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Shout out to the Pearl City Panthers. All right, We've
got three questions for you. First and foremost, we got
to find out where you think you stand on a
scale of one of the country.

Speaker 5 (09:54):
How country are you?

Speaker 9 (09:56):
I would say seven?

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Seven? Meghan hit her with the three questions. We'll give
you a score at the end.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
Renee, tell us what NRA stands for?

Speaker 9 (10:05):
National Rifle Association.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
Didn't even skip a beef's Like, I'm actually the president.

Speaker 6 (10:11):
So, Renee, if you were making a redneck cookbook, what
southern meal would you add in it?

Speaker 4 (10:17):
First?

Speaker 9 (10:24):
Probably beef tips and mashed potato.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Beef tips and mashed potatoes, that's that's pretty good.

Speaker 5 (10:33):
Sausage gravy would have been my pick.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
I love really good at jumbalaya.

Speaker 4 (10:39):
I think as long as you do potatoes, yea more
Louisiana and redneck.

Speaker 8 (10:44):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (10:45):
You know, a Southern grandma can make jumbalaya like you've
never had before.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
God, I dreamt about it all right, here we go.

Speaker 6 (10:50):
Final question, Renee, tell us about the most redneck thing
that you've ever done.

Speaker 5 (10:57):
She's like, I can't. Babies are in the room.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
It's like, I'm going to have to speak in code.

Speaker 5 (11:03):
Excuse me? Can you kids go outside?

Speaker 9 (11:09):
I don't know. I used to drive a Dodge Ram
and I used duct tape one time to fix the bumper.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
But other than that, did it work? Did the duct
tape work?

Speaker 9 (11:25):
Oh? Yeah, I stel I got my dads picked it
for real, for real?

Speaker 5 (11:28):
But yeah, how long did the duct tape stay on there?
That's a vital question.

Speaker 9 (11:34):
I would say three weeks.

Speaker 5 (11:37):
Oh wow, oh my god.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
And what color was it?

Speaker 9 (11:40):
It was great because the ram was white and it
had a primer roof and a hood.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
I just know the people that they've left the duct
tape on so long that it's dry rotted and it
still has the marks on the duct tape because they
never actually fixed what they were duct taping.

Speaker 5 (11:58):
Not bad today. Seven is a good for you?

Speaker 9 (12:01):
Okay, thank you?

Speaker 5 (12:02):
Do you guys remember when Meghan said this.

Speaker 6 (12:04):
When you date a golfer, it's just unpredictable. It'll be like, hey,
on Sunday, can we go do this? Yeah, that sounds good,
and then all of a sudden it's like, oh, we
have a tea time. We have tea time at eight
o'clock in the morning. Okay, well when will you be
done three you know pm?

Speaker 2 (12:18):
Maybe?

Speaker 4 (12:19):
No?

Speaker 6 (12:19):
Then they're out, Then they have to go to lunch.
Then they have to you know, go into pro shop.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
It's never ending. I hate it.

Speaker 5 (12:27):
Megan, what time was your t shot tea time over
the weekend?

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Oh boy?

Speaker 3 (12:32):
Seven fifteen?

Speaker 5 (12:34):
Yeah, and did you guys eat while you were golfing?

Speaker 3 (12:37):
Well we tried to.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
But this is just another reason that golfing sucks.

Speaker 5 (12:40):
And did you guys happen to stumble into a pro
shop at all?

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (12:44):
No, I couldn't get that far. You know, look, I
can only give so much.

Speaker 5 (12:47):
Okay, well it ended up. How did you end up
at Top Golf if you hate golfing that much?

Speaker 6 (12:53):
Well, g I Joe said something to me that really
stuck in my head, and he said, you ever think
about the things that maybe you used to not like
and maybe you just need to try them again.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
And I'm like, hmm, okay, okay.

Speaker 6 (13:07):
Let's see about this. I was like, I'm going to
take you out. We're going to Top Golf.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
He's like, oh my.

Speaker 8 (13:11):
God, so cool.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Why didn't you immediately jump to golfing then?

Speaker 2 (13:15):
Just the number one thing I hate?

Speaker 5 (13:18):
But if you ever played before?

Speaker 1 (13:20):
Because it seemed like you just didn't want to date
a guy who golfed.

Speaker 6 (13:24):
Yeah, every time you date a guy who golfs, so
always want you to drive the car.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
I'm not a good driver.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
I don't want to do that.

Speaker 3 (13:31):
That is true. That is the one thing.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
They're like, you can come and look pretty and drive
the golf cart and make sure my drink is you know,
always feel that boring.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
It is so boring, and.

Speaker 5 (13:40):
So it ended up happening over the weekend.

Speaker 6 (13:42):
Oh, it's a horrible experience. That God, because I don't
think he's going to want to go back. It took forever.
I couldn't get left handed clubs, which is horrible.

Speaker 5 (13:50):
And you know that's hard for anybody who's a lefty.

Speaker 6 (13:53):
It's true, but you can tell how many left handed
people are there because you're the only person who when
you're to golf, you look up and you're staring into
the face of all the right handed golfers. And I
was the only one there. So it took thirty minutes
for that. We finally started our game, and then we
tried to order and our food, our first drinks, and

(14:15):
our food didn't come out until we were about to leave.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Oh wow, it was really bad.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Yeah, okay, So basically we're all in agreement that you
do not like golf.

Speaker 5 (14:22):
You will never try golf again.

Speaker 7 (14:25):
I tried.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
I tried it.

Speaker 6 (14:26):
If it was for like a good charity or something,
I might go and then try to sneak away after girl.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
We can make donations. We can make donations some afar.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
Me and Blair will run the like a silent auction table.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
There are probably some other people that are listening to
the Spencer Grave Show that are like, look, you know,
my husband or my wife likes doing this and I
kind of hate it, but I've tried it one other time,
and maybe they're completely out Blair. When we originally had
this conversation, you talked about how you do not like
going to the car shows with your husband, Steve.

Speaker 4 (14:57):
No, no, but I think he enjoys the that I
don't enjoy it. Like, I think it was a setup
because the one time that I went with him, they
changed hotels that one time, and you know, this was
a new place they were staying, and it was the
worst experience of my entire life. I mean it was horrible.

(15:20):
And now all of a sudden they're at a nicer
hotel all.

Speaker 3 (15:22):
Of a sudden.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
So I think I was set up to go one
time him act like he wanted me to go, and
then he's like, Okay, she had a horrible town.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
She'll never come.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
Yeah, it's not think you were set up. You were
one hundred percent bamboozled. There's a lot of things that
we like to do by ourselves, and that's that's it.
So if you're in a relationship and your spouse loves
doing something, you've tried it, you just can't sign off
on it anymore.

Speaker 5 (15:43):
Eight five five Graves zero.

Speaker 1 (15:46):
What was this plan that you concocted to see how
fast your husband Steve would say happy birthday.

Speaker 5 (15:50):
To you today?

Speaker 4 (15:51):
The moment I woke up, I started a type like
a watch, stopwatch, stopwatch, could not think of that word
thank you so much to see how long it would
take him to remember that today was my birthday. You know.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
It kept going, oh my gosh.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
And I secretly wanted to make it all the way
to work because I'm like, can I make it all
the way to work before he mentions happy birthday to me?
They're like, what could I get out of this? I'm
thinking a trip to Saint John, you know more Kenny
Chesney tickets, Like I had a plan.

Speaker 5 (16:25):
So this didn't go over an hour?

Speaker 3 (16:27):
No, it did not go over an hour.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
Did it go over forty five minutes? I'm just trying
to make it a little easier for people to guess
how long they thought your husband Steve didn't wish you
a happy birthday.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
It did not go over forty five minutes. That's the
last hint I will be giving Kathy.

Speaker 1 (16:42):
We were just sharing the story that Blair's husband took
a pretty long time to wish her a happy birthday.
Somewhere between waking up in forty five minutes.

Speaker 7 (16:52):
Where's your guess, I'm thinking it's thirty three minutes.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Thirty three minutes, the same age as Blair today, Blair,
how close is that?

Speaker 3 (17:01):
It's over by a little bit.

Speaker 7 (17:02):
Okay, over by a little bit, and a happy birthday?

Speaker 3 (17:05):
Thank you so much, Kathy.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
Can you share with us before we let you go?
Has your significant other, I don't know, forgotten to say
happy birthday to you or forgotten a really big life
moment between the two of you.

Speaker 7 (17:17):
Well, not my husband now, but years ago, my ex
husband and actually everybody in my family, Like one year,
nobody remembered my birthday to the next day.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
Oh that is horrible, and that's why she got a divorce.

Speaker 5 (17:32):
Yes, seriously, that's why he's the.

Speaker 7 (17:36):
That was it?

Speaker 8 (17:36):
Yes.

Speaker 7 (17:37):
I was like, well, my best friend, my brother, my mom, nobody.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
That had to be a prank. It had to be
a prank.

Speaker 7 (17:44):
Well, I got mad. I started to say something and
I was like, you know, what. I'm just gonna make
them feel like crap.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
Tomorrow, as you should, Kathy.

Speaker 5 (17:52):
Thank you, have a great day.

Speaker 7 (17:54):
All right, thank you.

Speaker 5 (17:55):
So we're narrowing down the search.

Speaker 7 (17:57):
Yes, I was coming in to guess the birthday thing.

Speaker 5 (18:00):
Go ahead, thirty one minutes.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
Now a little over.

Speaker 5 (18:07):
You want to try it again?

Speaker 6 (18:08):
Damn it?

Speaker 3 (18:09):
About twenty nine, I mean so close, you want to
try it again?

Speaker 5 (18:15):
Thirty Well, now you're just.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
Going it was twenty seven.

Speaker 5 (18:22):
Twenty seven minutes. So what was he doing?

Speaker 1 (18:24):
So he got up, he went to the bathroom, He
brushed his teeth, he started shaving his face, and then
what happened?

Speaker 5 (18:30):
Blair?

Speaker 3 (18:31):
He goes Happy Birthday. The alarms are ringing in his head.
