Chase
Kicking.
Todd Grayson Chase
You look so good today. You got your hair cut about 30 minutes ago. Yeah. Folks, we all my children always wait until the last minute. I, on the other hand, am always prepared. I get up, I get dressed, and yes, I know it's hard to believe, but I get up looking like this. So. My children, on the other hand, who only have 50% of my DNA, they have to work a little harder than I do. So tell me what's going on in your life right now?
Grayson
Not much. I just finished school. That was good.
Todd Grayson Chase
That's a blessing.

Chase
Yeah.
Todd Grayson Chase
And then I'm leaving.
Chase
Sure.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm not going to be a part of all that. Sodom and Gomorrah Mass.
Chase
No one's doing analysis.
Todd Grayson Chase
Oh, my God. Go to church.
Chase
What?
Todd Grayson Chase
I didn't say Sodomy. I said Sodom.
Chase
Yeah, but they were doing that over there. I mean, I'm sure you could do it. So you're gonna get one lap dance.
Todd Grayson Chase
No, I'm not.
Chase
Okay.
Todd Grayson Chase
I am married, and I'm not doing such as that. I've never disrespected your mom.
Chase
Then they'll dance on the stage, and you have to make it rain one time.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm going to pray for them, and I'm going to splash them with holy water. That's what I'm gonna do.
Chase
So you are going.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm going to have. I'm going to honor what I said, and I'm going to give a rating for the food, and then I'm leaving. My friend Candy Burris has already sent me a message and said yes.
Chase
Candy's coming. Yeah, Candy's been in there throwing money.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'll get on to her.
Chase
She has.
Todd Grayson Chase
I've had several of my friends from Atlanta to say, todd, when are you going to Magic City? Because I have to be there, and I Have to have cameras rolling.
Chase
No cameras allowed.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm not doing anything that I care for people to say.
Chase
It's just out of respect for the lovely dancers there.
Todd Grayson Chase
Out of respect?
Chase
Yes. You have to be respectful. I was raised to be respectful.
Todd Grayson Chase
If you was respectful, you wouldn't have never been in there to begin with.
Chase
I was giving back to the community.
Todd Grayson Chase
Yeah.
Grayson
Mm.
Todd Grayson Chase
And, Grayson, you better not ever be doing such. Because you would. You want your mama to cry?
Chase
She won't cry. Yeah, she'll yell, but she won't cry.
Todd Grayson Chase
No, she'll cry over you.
Chase
Yeah. They don't give a. About me.
Grayson
No.
Todd Grayson Chase
Oh, God.
Grayson
Thank you.
Todd Grayson Chase
That storyline is so. Folks, it grows. You know, you have. You have some people that. They do one scene and it kind of took off and.
Chase
Well, that's not.
Todd Grayson Chase
But you can't be doing it over and over because it doesn't. It has. This doesn't have the same effect.
Chase
Do you ever look yourself in the mirror and take your own advice? Because that's the same over here.
Todd Grayson Chase
No.
Chase
Rinse and repeat.
Todd Grayson Chase
No. You're singing and repeating about this. Yeah, you are.
Chase
It's not. It's not if it's a fact. And it grows deeper and deeper every day.
Todd Grayson Chase
Okay, speaking of that, that goes back to a topic that I want to talk about today, because we seem to keep butting heads and doing some of the same shit that's been done in the past. So I wanted to talk to y' all about loyalty and friendship and trust. So I want to start off with the first question being, who do you think in this family is the most loyal? Chase?
Chase
Myself.
Todd Grayson Chase
Grayson.
Grayson
Honestly, you kiss some ass some more. I've told him so much that's never
Todd Grayson Chase
been repeated, nor will it. Okay, so let me ask you this, Grayson. What does loyalty mean to you?
Grayson
So it's like the biggest thing. The biggest thing to me.
Todd Grayson Chase
Okay, but what does it mean? What is your end of the day?
Grayson
If someone's not loyal to you, then, like, you can't have a relationship with them.
Todd Grayson Chase
Okay.
Grayson
Because that's not going to have relationship without loyalty.
Todd Grayson Chase
That's right. And, you know, that's kind of goes back to what I've told all of y' all that people. It's one thing for someone to say, dude, I got your back. I'm with you. I'm riding with you. I'm loyal with you. But if that person is saying that to you, is going and having dinner with someone that's talking shit about you, and they're sitting there hearing that, that Means that person who told you that they were loyal to you has now created a safe space for that individual to feel comfortable enough to talk shit about you. So then for me, that's a deal breaker because you're not really that loyal to me. You're loyal to anyone who's sitting at the table. And I'm. I'm less concerned with kind of what the person said versus what you said in response to that. Would you agree with that?
Grayson
Yeah. It's all about how you respond.
Todd Grayson Chase
Exactly.
Grayson
They can say whatever they want, but it's about how you respond.
Todd Grayson Chase
Exactly your thoughts.
Chase
I think that. I mean, being loyal to somebody is like, not just when times are good and it's easy to be loyal. It's like whenever, if someone's going through something or if, like, you're at your lowest, the people that are still there and still have your back, that's when you can measure loyalty is when times are hard.
Todd Grayson Chase
I think that. Yes, I agree. I think that when you look at it from the standpoint of.
Chase
And as far as people talking shit, Join the club.
Todd Grayson Chase
People are going to talk regardless of where you are, who you are, whatever. People are going to talk about us because we're out in the public, but people in Crossroads, South Carolina are sitting in a church on a pew talking about somebody sitting in front of them and what they're wearing. So regardless of who you are, what you're doing, someone's talking about you.
Chase
That means you're doing something right.
Todd Grayson Chase
I don't necessarily know that it always means you're doing something right. But I think that what it means is, is that it's human nature for so many people. They're comfortable in finding comfort in other people's misery.
Juan Naula
Yeah.
Chase
That's because people have made it a big deal to, like, it's so wrong to slap the shit out of somebody, but I think we need to bring that back.
Todd Grayson Chase
I literally just said this on Chrisley confessions to your mother last week. I said no. One of the biggest problems that we have in this country right now is that no one is slapping the shit out of somebody.
Chase
Yeah.
Todd Grayson Chase
When I was growing up and you ran your mouth about somebody or somebody ran their mouth about you, you walked into school, you saw them in the hallway, you dropped your backpack off, you beat the shit out of them down the hallway. You went to the school, you went to the principal, they put you in. In school suspension for a day. But that person shut up.
Chase
Yeah. They'll think twice before they do it.
Todd Grayson Chase
Right.
Chase
And now you get sued but today
Todd Grayson Chase
it's a safe zone for people to run that mile. Yeah, because they think you're not gonna mess with. I ain't that person. I disregard all safe zones. So you talk shit about me. You talk. I don't give a shit what you say about me, but you talk shit about one of my kids and you say something about my wife or my mama, I'll remove my backpack. Because I genuinely love, literally love to fight. That's what some people may not know about.
Chase
Yeah, I'm gonna stop here. That everybody is well aware of that.
Todd Grayson Chase
No, I love. But you know, I love to physically fight. I mean, it's not just mouth. I love to, like, if you put your. I want somebody to come put their hands on me. I literally have. I have got so much pent up frustration.
Grayson
You need to talk to somebody.
Todd Grayson Chase
No, I don't. I need to beat out of a few people. Yeah, that's my theory. One of them right here in Nashville. One of them right here in Nashville. And he better hope I don't go into the same restaurant teasing.
Chase
If you want to square up, just square up with me.
Todd Grayson Chase
Beat the brakes off of him. Me. I. I already done that with you. You're good.
Juan Naula
Shit.
Todd Grayson Chase
You in line. But people want to run that mouth because they get a mic or because they've got a social media platform following. I'm good with that. I'm good with you thinking I'm trash. I'm good with you thinking that I'm redneck. I'm good with you thinking that I'm gay. I'm good with you thinking whatever the label you need to give me in order for you to feel better about what you're getting ready to say. But feel good enough to come on this podcast with me. Feel good to meet me out in public. I'll extend an invitation.
Grayson
Worried about goggles?
Todd Grayson Chase
You know, I'm good with that. I don't mind getting down in the gutter with you. I mean, I'm not Michelle. I'm not Michelle Obama. When they go low, I go lower. So, you know, I'm good with that. But I do believe, going back to what you were saying, people don't have a consequence for running their mouth and telling lies.
Chase
Yeah, 100%.
Todd Grayson Chase
And you know, I get tired of having to sue people. I really do. But I'm also you. I really get tired of people saying that I do things that I don't do and they don't give me credit for anything that I do. But what I am going to do is make a believer out of you.
Geico Gecko
And now for a bit of breaking news. Between your breaking news with me, the Geico gecko, here are some things you ought to know today. People who switch their car insurance to geico save about $900 a year. Experts are calling that. Nice to know. Also, plants can hear when bees buzz. My ficus just heard that. And finally, animal experts have confirmed that goats have regional accents. I'm getting a hint of Irish there.
Todd Grayson Chase
It feels good to get good news. It feels good to Geico.

So what else would you say is a big thing for you, is a big sign of loyalty? You just said that somebody who's there when the times are hard. Yeah, but if someone's there for you in your times, in your tough trials, is there any kind of motivation there? I mean, has this person been riding with you forever or has this person just been in the, in the backseat, you know, kind of hitching a ride? Because some people will fake loyalty just to be able to stand because they
Grayson
know it's going to get better.
Chase
I think once when. I don't know, I mean, I've Definitely experienced, like, when times got hard, you just stop hearing from people and if that's fine, like, not everybody signs up for your shit, but, like, you can still be there for someone.
Todd Grayson Chase
Well, not everyone signs up for your shit. I love that. I love that line. Not everyone signs up for your shit, but. But if I sign up for when things are going great, yeah, everybody wants
Chase
to be a part of it when things are going great. But, I mean, I think that's. I mean, it's loyalty and it's love. I think when you love somebody, like, for me, like, your shit is my shit, you know?
Todd Grayson Chase
Yeah. I don't look at it that way. I don't want y' all shit.
Chase
We're well aware.
Todd Grayson Chase
I am of the mindset that loyal for me, loyalty is about being honest, straightforward, direct about where you stand and with an understanding that this is my. These are my boundaries. This is what I'm standing on. Doesn't mean I don't love you. Doesn't mean I'm not here, you know, if you need me, but these are my boundaries. A lot of people can miss a notorious boundary crosser. I'm. There is no boundary for me when it comes to my kids.
Chase
But you have.
Todd Grayson Chase
Yes, there is no boundaries for me when it comes to my kids. There is no door that's ever going to have a lock on it with my child on the other side of it that I won't kick the hell down.
Chase
I know, but you have to respect people's boundaries, though. Like, at the end of the day, like a human. Like, as human beings, everybody has, like, emotional boundaries.
Todd Grayson Chase
Well, go. Go in deeper about that.
Chase
I mean, that's. I feel like that should be common sense.
Todd Grayson Chase
Well, that it's. Common sense is not all that common. And right now I'm not getting what you're laying down, so I need you to help me figure that out.
Chase
What do you. I mean, like, you said that there's no boundaries with your kids.
Todd Grayson Chase
No.
Chase
So, like youe definitely have boundaries with your kids. You just choose to respect certain people's boundaries and not other people's.
Todd Grayson Chase
No. So that's. That's where I think that all of y' all sometimes get confused. I cross every boundary if I think it's for the benefit of my child. But that doesn't mean if I'm crossing a boundary with him, that I'm gonna come and tell you if I cross. I don't know that I'm gonna go tell Savannah. I just shatter all of yalls boundaries. Don't be trying to put up no boundaries of me and no damn locked doors because I'm gonna cross every one of them at the end.
Chase
That goes back to slapping the shit out of someone.
Todd Grayson Chase
Yeah. And I love that. Yeah, I'd love to do that. But my thing is, is that bounce. People look at loyalty as, dude, I. I paid for your dinner yesterday.
Chase
That's not.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm loyal to you.
Grayson
That's not loyal.
Todd Grayson Chase
Well, I know.
Chase
Then I should have a million people,
Todd Grayson Chase
you know, or, you know, dude, I covered for you when you were cheating on that girl. That's not loyalty. That's a character flaw on his part.
Chase
Enabling.
Todd Grayson Chase
Or that or her part. And they're enabling a character flaw in you. So to me, loyalty is someone who stands on what they believe. They have strong, solid values, Their moral compass is where it needs to be. And they make you a better person by standing up and saying, chase, stop. We're not going to do that. That's not something we're going to do. That's not going to benefit you. So we're not going to do that. That's a true friend. I mean, would you agree with that?
Grayson
I would.
Todd Grayson Chase
Because when you rather have a friend that's going to tell you, dude, we're not going on that ride right there. Just came out the tracks last week.
Chase
Yeah.
Grayson
I don't want anybody that's going to tell me yes all the time.
Todd Grayson Chase
Right?
Chase
Correct.
Todd Grayson Chase
Exactly.
Grayson
That didn't do me any good.
Todd Grayson Chase
See, folks, I am overly qualified for this position because I rarely tell them, yes, me more than the others do. What?
Grayson
Send me more than the others.
Todd Grayson Chase
What Tell you yes, only because I ain't caught you yet. But I know that you Slim Shady and I don't. And, you know, your mama thinks she perfectly. I, on the other hand, know who my son is.
Chase
But Grayson is perfect.
Todd Grayson Chase
Grayson's is close to.
Grayson
I don't know why y' all talking about me. I. I'm sitting here being Loyal World in Tuscaloosa. I leave everybody alone.
Chase
I.
Todd Grayson Chase
You are as close to perfection when it comes to raising my children that I've had, because I don't have to worry about you. So that gives me a great level of peace. Well, on that note, I want to give y' all some scenarios and then you tell me kind of what your thoughts are on that. So, like, how do you feel or how do you handle if a friend talks behind your back?
Grayson
I say something to him. I'm not afraid to say something, so.
Todd Grayson Chase
But how does it make you feel if you find out That a friend's talk behind your back?
Chase
Be honest.
Grayson
Honestly though, like, does it hurt? A little bit. Yeah. But just with who we are, like I assume people to talk behind our back.
Todd Grayson Chase
Gotcha.
Chase
I thank God when I find out someone's talked behind my back because that's just revealing. Okay, they gotta go.
Todd Grayson Chase
There you go, there you go.
Chase
What about when family talks behind your back? Because y' all be talking about me.
Todd Grayson Chase
You give us a lot of to talk about.
Chase
So do you.
Todd Grayson Chase
No. Oh my God. I don't.
Chase
Hell's gonna bust wide open.
Todd Grayson Chase
Chase. I am 58 years old. What could I possibly be giving you to talk about?
Chase
You're a full blown psychopath.
Grayson
Our issue is we love to handle stuff very violently.
Todd Grayson Chase
Yeah, there is that tendency.
Grayson
There is.
Todd Grayson Chase
Is that tendency in us. How do you feel when we're just
Chase
going to brush past that? Okay.
Todd Grayson Chase
No, we're not going to brush past it. Tell me what you said. Don't. Don't be. Oh, I'm trying to be shady.
Chase
You.
Todd Grayson Chase
Are you saying bitch in the family? What are you saying?
Chase
Gina George over here, queen of fucking throwing shade.
Todd Grayson Chase
She. He.
Chase
Oh my God.
Todd Grayson Chase
I do know such of a thing.
Chase
Dad, look me in my face. You are full of shit. Just completely.
Todd Grayson Chase
What are you talking about? Dad?
Chase
You talk shit about me with anybody?
Todd Grayson Chase
Grayson. Do I talk shit about him to you?
Chase
No.
Grayson
But I say. I say the same shit that I tell everybody else. I don't want to hear about it. I don't want to know. I'm not involved in it. It's not my problem. I'm doing my own.
Chase
I'm going to put a hidden camera. When you and Savannah get in the car together.
Todd Grayson Chase
It will.
Chase
Oh my.
Todd Grayson Chase
Go, Chase. Oh, you just snitch. We don't have time to talk. If me and Savannah are together, we're talking about ourselves. We're not talking about you. We're talking about ourselves. Clearly.
Chase
We're so great. We're just perfect. But let's just. Let's talk about Chase and we'll just say he's the worst thing ever.
Todd Grayson Chase
We don't ever mention your name.
Chase
That's a lie.
Todd Grayson Chase
We don't. We don't ever talk about you. That's the. God. We talk about business. We talk about personal stuff.
Chase
Save the bullshit.
Todd Grayson Chase
But we don't talk about you.
Chase
Okay.
Todd Grayson Chase
You know you're going to believe what you want to believe. So how do you feel when someone disrespects your family?
Grayson
I'm ready to go to jail
Todd Grayson Chase
again, folks. We result to violence I let a
Grayson
little bit more go with you because I know you don't give a shit.
Todd Grayson Chase
Not at all.
Grayson
They say something about mama or Savannah and I'm ready. I. I will gladly go to jail.
Chase
What about me?
Grayson
You're a man, dude. You can take it.
Chase
I already went.
Grayson
I don't ever say anything if they say something about me, because I'm just like, I'll just turn around. And you know what the thing about
Todd Grayson Chase
it is, is that we know the truth. So I look at them sometimes and laugh. I'm like, because you were there.
Grayson
I let it go. I let it go sometimes. But sometimes I'll be walking and they'll say something and I'll keep walking for a minute and I just go, no. And turn around and they'll be like, you. And I'll be like, no, you.
Todd Grayson Chase
I. I don't even care that much. Like, I've only had that. I had that one incident at Publix out there where your nanny lived. And then the one with that lady in the airport that time when I was bringing mama back.
Chase
I already went to jail over.
Todd Grayson Chase
And then, then that. Then that. That one guy. Shoot. It's always somebody.
Chase
A big.
Todd Grayson Chase
Looks like a sack of shit.
Grayson
It's always somebody that's got a hell of a lot more issues than we do, that wants to hit on ours.
Todd Grayson Chase
Exactly. And I'm just going to tell you right now, folks, every time one of somebody has said something to me, those hoes need to be best friends with Ozempic.
Grayson
I'll see people.
Todd Grayson Chase
It's always that section.
Grayson
I'll see people comment on Instagram talking about one of us. And I'll go look at their profile picture. Well, half the time it's not even a profile picture of them. So how insecure are you? Your profile picture anymore.
Todd Grayson Chase
Exactly. First of all, what are they gonna say about us and I. They can say a lot of shit, but they can't say we or they're
Grayson
350lbs of four teeth on their head, okay? They've been chain smoking unfiltered cigarettes for 80 years.
Chase
That's math. They're doing math.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm just. I don't even give a about. If someone says something about one of my kids or your mama or my mama, then I will fight you.
Grayson
I'm just not real worried about Tammy and her double wide trailer in Arkansas talking shit.
Todd Grayson Chase
I ain't really worried about Tammy either. So how do you feel about if you have a friend that's dating someone that you don't trust?
Grayson
Actually, I can comment perfectly on this because I got a friend dating somebody, okay? I don't surround myself with them. I tell him I'm coming over. Bring. No, no, you ain't you bringing yourself or you're not, you're not coming.
Todd Grayson Chase
But I like that because that's setting proper boundaries. Because for years, I allowed so many people in my life and around me that I knew was not good for me and that I knew would talk or whatever, but I just did not have it in me to hurt someone's feelings to say, no, you can't. My issue is I did not. I did not.
Chase
When have you ever been afraid to hurt somebody's feelings?
Todd Grayson Chase
All my life. All my life. All my life. Now, folks, now, I don't give a. I will come for you if you come for me.
Chase
Had you been hurting my feelings since I was a toddler?
Todd Grayson Chase
Oh, Chase. The sunrise hurts your feelings.
Grayson
It's called tough parenting.
Todd Grayson Chase
Clearly, folks, everyone knows who the emo is in our family.
Chase
No, I'm. I'm not emo at all.
Todd Grayson Chase
How do you feel about someone, one of your friends, dating someone that you don't trust?
Chase
I mean, I'll just tell them, be like, that's not a good idea, but I won't. I'm not gonna get involved in the relationship or be around them I don't get involved in.
Grayson
I just say I'm not going to be surrounded by it because I'm around people I don't trust or I don't like.
Chase
But I feel like you've done a good job with teaching us how to handle people. Like, if we don't trust somebody, you know what they are.
Grayson
I feel like I let more go than, you know.
Chase
We know how to navigate those waters better.
Todd Grayson Chase
How do you feel about. Let's just say one of your friends in your friend group ends up talking to someone that you used to date
Chase
that's not a friend.
Grayson
You don't do that.
Chase
Not a friend.
Todd Grayson Chase
Because it's kind of like a violation of the guy code, right?
Chase
Yeah.
Grayson
You don't do that.
Chase
You don't sword fight.
Todd Grayson Chase
Because I think that if that's happening, I think that deep down that person is trying to date somebody that you've already been with, secretly has the thing for you, and that's their way of being able to get closer.
Grayson
I don't know if it's that far,
Chase
but, yeah, I don't know if it's that far.
Grayson
I think it's just being a shitty person.
Todd Grayson Chase
Really?
Grayson
Yeah.
Todd Grayson Chase
So you don't think it could be like they have secret thoughts about you.
Grayson
I think you're digging way too much into it.
Todd Grayson Chase
Okay.
Mackenzie
My name is Mackenzie and I started a GoFundMe for the adoptive mother of a non verbal autistic child. The mother had lost her job because she wasn't able to find adequate clients care for this autistic child. So she really needed some help with living expenses, paying some back bills. So I launched a GoFundMe to help support them during this crisis. And we raised about $10,000 within just a couple of months. I think that the surprising thing was by telling a clear story and just like really being very clear about what we needed, we had some really generous donations from people who were really moved by the situation that this family was struggling with.

Todd Grayson Chase
All right, then there's the example. What about if you have a friend that's cheating on someone that they're with? How do you handle that?
Chase
I'm not telling you.
Grayson
I don't like trauma. It's really none of my business.
Chase
Okay, great. Not telling either.
Todd Grayson Chase
So that kind of goes back to what my daddy used to say when I was growing up. My daddy said that you don't need to be dick watching somebody else.
Grayson
That's not my business.
Chase
Doesn't that kind of contradict what we just said, though, about the loyalty thing?
Grayson
But I feel like if your friend is.
Chase
Well, I guess you could be like, yo, you shouldn't do that. But like.
Todd Grayson Chase
Yeah, but I was like that. I would be doing that.
Grayson
Yeah, but isn't it different if, like, your friends getting cheated on, you know, then you say something?
Chase
Yeah, oh, my. Someone's cheating on one of my friends. I'd be like, that is cheating. Yeah, I'm airing it out.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm airing it. We know. That.
Chase
I know that. I haven't told you about it. Eat my ass.
Grayson
Sign out my. My friend was getting cheated on. Yeah, yeah, I told her, okay, so
Todd Grayson Chase
what if you have a friend that's. That does something that you know is going to get you in trouble and they've included you in it.
Grayson
That's shitty friend. Why would you include me? I don't want to be a part of that bullshit.
Chase
Only if you get caught.
Todd Grayson Chase
So let me understand this. You're willing to get in a car with one of your friends knowing they're getting ready to go do something that you could potentially get in trouble with.
Grayson
If they were your friend, they wouldn't put you in that position in the first place.
Todd Grayson Chase
There you go. But we gonna have this one to lick over here. Willing to jump in, ride shotgun no matter who's driving?
Chase
No, it depends on what it is. Like what kind of trouble? Like jail trouble.
Todd Grayson Chase
Jail trouble.
Chase
I have done that.
Grayson
But I feel like there's a fine line.
Chase
Would I do it now? No.
Grayson
Loyalty and stupidity again.
Todd Grayson Chase
Know who you're being loyal to? Everyone doesn't deserve your loyalty.
Chase
That's.
Todd Grayson Chase
Everyone does not deserve your loyalty. I don't. I give. I'm very sparingly with mine. So let me ask you this. If your friend gets into a physical altercation, do you step in or do you step out of?
Grayson
Well, it depends. Is my friend getting his ass beat?
Todd Grayson Chase
Well, if it's your friend and he's
Grayson
fighting one guy, is he getting his ass beat? That's a big Grayson got nothing.
Todd Grayson Chase
Well, we'll go with both scenarios. He's fight. It's one on one guy. Your friend ran his mouth. This guy checked him and they're fist fighting and he's getting a shit beat out of it.
Grayson
Oh, then yeah, I'm stepping in. But if he is beating the shit out of the other guy, he's got to handle. I don't need stuff.
Todd Grayson Chase
Right. So you think that if I'm not
Grayson
friend let the shit get beat out of him? Like that's just. That's me being a bad friend. I don't care if he provoked it or not. If he's just. What am I going to do? Let him just get shit, you know?
Todd Grayson Chase
So you're that friend.
Grayson
Yeah. I'm not going to let him get you beat down.
Chase
My friends getting is in a fight is losing.
Grayson
He's getting his ass kicked.
Chase
Yeah, I'm beating the shit out of that guy with him.
Grayson
Exactly.
Chase
We're jumping him.
Grayson
Exactly.
Chase
And if he's beating the guy's ass, then I'm videoing and hyping him up like. Yeah, get it. Beat his ass.
Grayson
Exactly.
Todd Grayson Chase
For the parents watching this, just understand I'm.
Chase
I'm petty as. So you are too. You are way more petty than me.
Todd Grayson Chase
No, I used to be.
Chase
No, you are.
Todd Grayson Chase
You still think I'm petty.
Grayson
Dude, you are.
Todd Grayson Chase
Let's talk about.
Grayson
You will post somebody on Instagram in a hurry.
Chase
Dude, the last three days he's posted on Instagram and I'm like, damn. I know. That's. That's a jab at me.
Grayson
He posts stuff. Everybody on Instagram. He'll post random people on it.
Todd Grayson Chase
Now we're going to talk about this. What have I posted?
Chase
That you think there's a couple things. Okay, hold on. I'm not going.
Grayson
Well, it's hard to keep track because you post. I posted 28,000 stories a day.
Todd Grayson Chase
I posted for my little friend, Eloise Alterman, who's the singer. Then I posted one for Christa Confessions.
Chase
I don't know if it was today.
Todd Grayson Chase
Then I posted one for my beautiful daughter for Good Girl Rx, which is doing amazing, by the way.
Grayson
Free plug.
Chase
Then I'm about to invoice.
Todd Grayson Chase
I posted this one here about this baby slapping the. Out of its mama. I didn't.
Chase
No one said it was. It was today. You. You know, you're shady. You know, you're petty.
Todd Grayson Chase
I really have not been doing anything shady, so I'm. I'm trying to have to go back and look, I posted one here. One day my son will realize why I corrected his attitude, why I didn't tolerate disrespect, and why I pushed him to be better. I'm responsible for the man he becomes, and I'll never stop guiding him, even when he thinks that he doesn't need it. I rest. Ain't no shade on that. If you getting.
Chase
That's not the one I'm talking about.
Todd Grayson Chase
Let me keep looking in. Then I talked about Jasmine the Crock Pot Crockett, thinking she's part of the 500 most powerful.
Grayson
God, I can't stand her.
Todd Grayson Chase
That goes to show you how delusional people are. Jasmine Crockett has classified herself as being one of the 500 most powerful people in the United States.
Chase
Who the hell.
Todd Grayson Chase
You are fired. You're out of a job. No, I don't have anything on there. That was. The last thing I had on there
Chase
was that you did post something.
Todd Grayson Chase
Well, what was it? Talk about it. That's what Two Sons of Me is about. You talk about.
Chase
You just. You post shady. For sure you did.
Todd Grayson Chase
Okay, then what was it?
Chase
It's not up there.
Todd Grayson Chase
Oh, but it got Caught you in your feelings? Is that what you're saying?
Chase
No, I'm clearly it.
Todd Grayson Chase
Because you're sitting here bringing it up.
Chase
I was just like, what a petty.
Todd Grayson Chase
Did you see it?
Grayson
I don't know. I. I love you to death, but I don't Click through your 700 quotes you post on Instagram.
Todd Grayson Chase
I do. I post anything that makes me.
Grayson
I don't click through, but you are petty.
Chase
You're extremely, extremely extreme.
Todd Grayson Chase
I need you to give the people examples.
Grayson
All of us are. Though
Chase
I honestly might be the least
Grayson
petty now I'm a petty.
Todd Grayson Chase
Oh my God, Chase, you are the most petty human being I have ever met in my life.
Chase
No, I've grown.
Todd Grayson Chase
You've grown to be even more petty.
Chase
No, no, I have not.
Todd Grayson Chase
That lies I tell you that.
Chase
I've had so many opportunities to be a petty bitch specifically with you, and I have not.
Todd Grayson Chase
You can't be petty with me because I can ice you out. We know petty with me. All negativity from my life.
Chase
I can. I sell too.
Todd Grayson Chase
Okay, I remove all negativity from my life now.
Chase
You create a lot of negativity.
Todd Grayson Chase
I am in my home minding my own business. Y' all bring y' all shit to me. I'm not asking for it.
Grayson
Huh? I don't even live in the same state.
Todd Grayson Chase
Yeah, but you have drama sometimes too that you bring to me that I let you vent and then we move.
Grayson
That's about stupid stuff, right?
Todd Grayson Chase
But it's still y' all talking about me being petty.
Grayson
You'd be bored if you didn't have our drama.
Todd Grayson Chase
Try me.
Grayson
Let's see if I. I bring you the least drama.
Chase
I don't even bring my drama.
Todd Grayson Chase
Oh my God.
Chase
God.
Todd Grayson Chase
I don't. Call 91 1, Aaron, please call 91 1. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Chase
You're bug eyed.
Todd Grayson Chase
Yeah. What? Chase, how do you feel about regarding friendships at this age in your life?
Chase
I've got like four friends and I'm good.
Todd Grayson Chase
I don't need any more. What about you?
Grayson
I'm the same way. I have like five or six.
Chase
The rest are just in my circle.
Todd Grayson Chase
Let me let both of you continuously went down. Let me let both of you know something. The older you get, the more that's going to dwindle down. I'm fine with that because I can tell you right now I have literally about 35 best friends. I literally have my. I cannot put five people on my hand that I would say these are the ones that I'm going to die with. I have three that I know I'm riding to the gates of heaven.
Grayson
Well, I mean three or four mine I've been friends with since I'm still
Chase
up in the air.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm going to heaven. I hate them on miss you. But I'm going to be there.
Chase
I'm going in. I've talked. I've had to tolerate you.
Todd Grayson Chase
Okay.
Chase
They Might give you a little bench outside the gates, but you're not walking in. You.
Todd Grayson Chase
What about. How do you. I mean, what is your opinion? And how do you navigate friendships?
Grayson
In college, I've always had a small circle.
Todd Grayson Chase
Right.
Grayson
And I just kept it that way.
Todd Grayson Chase
That's true.
Grayson
Other people. Just acquaintances.
Todd Grayson Chase
I think that you have to get to a place in your life, or rather, when you get to a place in your life that you realize that not everyone is going to grow with you.
Grayson
But also, if I don't like you, you know I don't like you, so
Todd Grayson Chase
that's how I am.
Grayson
I've made it very clear. I won't even speak to you. Like, you won't get a word out of me.
Todd Grayson Chase
How do you feel about harboring resentment?
Grayson
No, if I don't like you, I'll. I'll say it.
Todd Grayson Chase
But do you hold on to it in your spirit, in your heart? No.
Grayson
Most of the time when I say something, I'm done after that.
Todd Grayson Chase
Yeah, that's. Yeah. No, that's not.
Chase
Us two over here. We are harboring.
Todd Grayson Chase
I'm not God Almighty.
Chase
I thought this was about truth and honesty and growth and growing together.
Grayson
When have we ever done any of the above?
Chase
Well, we're trying. I'm trying. At least,
Todd Grayson Chase
folks, I will hold a grudge, and I'm trying to get better at that because I know that the Lord is going to say when I get there, Todd, that you didn't Forgive this. This 39,716 times that you should have. So I'm trying to get to a place to where I can just.
Chase
The Bible does tell you to forgive.
Todd Grayson Chase
It does. And. And I do. And I. And I say sometimes when I'm praying, lord, I'm asking you to temper my heart and to help me to forg rejects that I have got so much hatred towards. And I, Lord, I ask that you let Mother Nature take control of them and ride all over their face and their bodies. In Jesus name I pray. Amen. And I feel like that that's going to help me get there.
Grayson
There's certain. There's certain people that's like praying to win the lottery. I just don't forgive. Huh? There's certain people I just don't forgive.
Chase
You have to forgive, but forgive for yourself.
Grayson
It's God's job to forgive.
Todd Grayson Chase
Now the Lord says you have to forgive in order to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Grayson
I don't. There's a lot of people and, you
Todd Grayson Chase
know, we got to be neighbors, so you got to forgive.
Grayson
I'm sure it'll come with age.
Todd Grayson Chase
If I can forgive ugly people, then you can forgive other people. I said ugly people, not other people. Well, I want to say that I'm very proud that the podcast is doing so well.
Chase
You're welcome.
Todd Grayson Chase
And no, you're welcome. You both are doing your lifting. I'm carrying. They're doing some lift.
Grayson
Yeah. Okay.
Chase
Why don't you just do a podcast with just you sitting here?
Todd Grayson Chase
I could do that. I could do that.
Grayson
Let's see how it goes.
Todd Grayson Chase
Because if you feel like I could
Grayson
do it by yourself, why do you need me for all?
Todd Grayson Chase
I feel like I could be the next Mark Levine of podcast. Okay. Because Mark can talk just on his own.
Chase
You talk to yourself every day.
Todd Grayson Chase
Why do you think I have the self confidence that I have? Because I'm certainly not gonna get it from my son.
Chase
I don't think it's self confidence. I think it's more of a condition.
Todd Grayson Chase
Okay, well, don't cure me this condition. On that note, I love both of you. And until next week, good luck and God bless.

Episode Date: May 8, 2026
Host: Todd Chrisley
Co-Hosts: Chase Chrisley, Grayson Chrisley
Theme: Unfiltered family dynamics and brutally honest (and hilarious) conversations about loyalty, boundaries, and friendship.
In this candid, lively, and unapologetically authentic episode of Two Sons & Me, Todd Chrisley sits down with his sons, Chase and Grayson, for a conversation that’s high on wit, wild anecdotes, and hard truths. This week focuses on what loyalty (and family feuding) really looks like, the boundaries (or lack thereof) in relationships, and why sometimes you’ve just got to “say it to my face.” Listeners are treated to the Chrisleys’ signature blend of banter and real talk, with plenty of playful jabs, one-liners, and the occasional life lesson.

Celebrating the podcast’s recent spike in popularity (“We hit a million views,” says Chase at 03:12).
Todd is called out for a pact to visit Magic City (iconic Atlanta strip club) after hitting one million views. Todd protests but agrees to go, solely to “do a rating on the food,” insisting, “I am married and I’m not doing such as that. I’ve never disrespected your mom.” (04:29)
Hilarious debate around what counts as “honoring a bet,” Todd’s justification for his attendance, and playful ribbing about family reputation.
Quote:
"I’m going to pray for them, and I’m going to splash them with holy water. That’s what I’m gonna do." —Todd (04:37)
Timestamps: 06:26–12:41
Todd introduces the core topic: “loyalty and friendship and trust”.
Who’s Most Loyal?
Defining Loyalty:
Quote:
"I’m less concerned with kind of what the person said versus what you said in response to that." —Todd (08:00)
Talking About Haters/Public Life:
Timestamps: 09:33–12:20
Chase: “People have made it a big deal like it’s so wrong to slap the shit out of somebody, but I think we need to bring that back.” (09:33)
Todd says fighting was a way of settling things and enforcing respect in his day, comparing past and present attitudes toward conflict.
Quote:
"No one is slapping the shit out of somebody...that person shut up." —Todd (09:41)
Timestamps: 15:59–17:40
Timestamps: 17:56–18:53
The crew discusses the difference between supporting friends and enabling bad behavior.
“Covering for cheating isn’t loyalty—it’s a character flaw.” —Todd (18:01)
True friends (and loyal people) will challenge you when you’re making mistakes.
Quote:
"Loyalty is someone who stands on what they believe, has strong, solid values…they make you a better person by standing up and saying, ‘Stop. We're not going to do that.’" —Todd (18:13)

On Family Differences:
“You can raise children the exact same way. And they all turn out…” —Todd (03:30)
On Parenting Boundaries:
“There is no door that’s ever going to have a lock on it with my child on the other side…that I won’t kick the hell down.” —Todd (16:31)
On Loyalty:
“Paying for your dinner isn’t loyalty…covering for you while you’re cheating, that’s enabling.” —Todd (18:01)
On Fighting for Family:
“If someone says something about one of my kids or your mama…then I will fight you.” —Todd (24:29)
On Friendship Circles:
“I have like four friends and I’m good.” —Chase (35:22)
“You've continuously went down...The older you get, the more that's going to dwindle down.” —Todd (35:33)
On Grudges:
“I will hold a grudge, and I’m trying to get better at that...” —Todd (37:42)
