Savannah Chrisley
Welcome back to unlocked. And today is going to be a little bit of a different kind of episode. Because today my baby brother Grayson is sitting across from me and he is about to turn 20 in five days.
Grayson Chrisley
I know I'm getting old.
Savannah Chrisley
It's crazy. I mean, for everyone that's watched our show, Chrisley knows best, you've been with us since the beginning. Grayson was. How old were you when we started?
Grayson Chrisley
6.
Savannah Chrisley
That's insane. Grayson was six years old and he is about to turn 20, which is absolutely insane. You're not a kid anymore.
Grayson Chrisley
No, I'm not a teenager.
Savannah Chrisley
No. You are at the University of Alabama and you have done a really good job. You've made it on the dean's list. You are semi trying. Semi trying. And the reason I say that is because I know my brother and I know what he's capable of. He's doing a fantastic job. But dad informed me that you were only taking two classes next semester.
Grayson Chrisley
No, he's got it completely wrong. That's not what I told him. I told him I have class two days next semester.
Savannah Chrisley
Oh, okay.
Grayson Chrisley
Because they're loaded up. I have like three classes on each day.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, well, he told me you were taking two classes. And I was like, why do you think that's okay? I was like, he wouldn't even be like a part time student, I don't think.
Grayson Chrisley
No, I'm in way more than two classes. I just have class two days a week.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, see, that's the brother I know. See, Todd doesn't know what he's talking about.
Grayson Chrisley
I literally said that in the text. I said, I have class two days a week, not I'm taking two classes.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, gotcha. So where are you? What year will you be going into?
Grayson Chrisley
I guess junior.
Savannah Chrisley
Your junior year? Or are you behind?
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know. I really don't know. I guess I'm a junior. Oh, no, I'll just keep going. As long as dad pays.
Savannah Chrisley
We're not Turning this into a five year plan.
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know.
Savannah Chrisley
Do you? I'm really not even.
Grayson Chrisley
I'm really not even like, on track for a five year plan. I did come in, like, the second semester of the freshman year.
Savannah Chrisley
No, you didn't. You went in in August.
Grayson Chrisley
No, I didn't. I went in in January.
Savannah Chrisley
Did you?
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah, because we fought that whole time about you not wanting me to go in January, and I went in January, and that was the second semester of that freshman year.
Advertisement Voiceover
Mm.
Savannah Chrisley
You're right. So you'll be graduating in, like, that middle time.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, well, I kind of want to
Grayson Chrisley
push it out just so I have, like, the regular graduation. Because those middle ones are weird. It's not the same thing.
Savannah Chrisley
I mean, that's true. That's true. I mean, I could maybe hop on board with that, but I also feel like you're going to be excited to, like, go into the real world, into your profession.
Grayson Chrisley
No, no, I love it there. I would go as long as they have me.
Savannah Chrisley
Oh, that's great. Well, University of Alabama, please don't have him pass.
Grayson Chrisley
Four years, maybe five.
Savannah Chrisley
Four years? No, possibly no more, please.
Grayson Chrisley
If I think we have a good shot at national championship, it'll be five.
Savannah Chrisley
Oh, my gosh. Well, as we start this episode, full disclosure, I am going to expose Grayson a little bit. There's a credit card situation that we have to talk about. There's also 40 talks about this. Well, there's also some other questions about, you know, what kind of guardian I was actually for him during the prison years. And I feel like there is a side of him that y' all haven't heard on any of the other family podcasts, because he hasn't. You know, he's just more open with me. Okay. He's funny on the others. So, Grayson, we are in the last days of you being 19. Last days of you being a teenager. What does it feel like knowing you're about to be 20 years old?
Grayson Chrisley
It feels weird.
Savannah Chrisley
Like, you don't really have the excuse of I'm a teenager.
Grayson Chrisley
I know. It feels really weird.
Savannah Chrisley
What's the weirdest part about it?
Grayson Chrisley
It's just crazy. It's like, 19 wasn't like a big one.
Savannah Chrisley
No.
Grayson Chrisley
But 20, I'm like, damn.
Savannah Chrisley
Well, yeah, because really, after 21, no birthday really matters.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
I mean, unless you're me. I love my birthday. I love, like, a trip or fun things. What would you say, first off? Would you say that you are the same kid now than you were, like, the kid who started college?
Grayson Chrisley
No.
Savannah Chrisley
What would you say? What would you say are some differences?
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know. I feel like you just change over time. Like, especially with, like. I mean, I went to college with mom and dad still in there, and obviously when they came out, that changes you.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
So I would say them that way.
Savannah Chrisley
What would. What would you say is something that you want to leave behind in your teenage years?
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know. I don't feel like. Like, I don't feel like there's anything I really want to leave behind.
Savannah Chrisley
I think when I just did a podcast with mom and dad and they were kind of talking, mom was saying how things are a little different with you because, you know, whenever they left, Chase and I are obviously adults doing our thing. You were 16, and then they come back and you're in college and mom did everything for you versus when they left. It really reached a point where I was like, you gotta figure it out.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
Like, you going to the bank by yourself, just even things as simple as that. So it is very different. Do you think. Do you think it's been harder for you and your relationship with them than it has been for, like, me and my relationship with them since I've come home?
Grayson Chrisley
I think it has been harder, just, like, in a way, like, with me going back and forth to Tuscaloosa, like, I get it. Like, people want me to be home, but also, like, I have relationships that I've got to, like, maintain. And, like, I'm not going to go three months without seeing certain people and, like, stuff like that. And mom and dad are like, why are you going back? And I'm like, well, I'm not. I'm not, like, going to go three months without seeing these people.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Like, I've got. I've got to go back. And I feel like sometimes they don't really understand it, but.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. Well, I also think, too, it's hard, Right. Because in our mind, we miss you. Especially for them, I think, you know, going two and a half years, they want you to be home as much as possible, but in a way, you're kind of navigating your own life, building your own life, your own people.
Grayson Chrisley
When away. Tuscaloosa right now is home.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Like, when you spend every day in a routine doing your own thing down there, and then you come home and you're like, what am I supposed to do? Yeah, I don't know what to do.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
And that's why I like it, because I have my own routine. I can do what I want. I hang out with people. I'm always doing something. I come home and I'm not doing anything, and I'm like, yeah, I'm bored.
Savannah Chrisley
Well, hey, when you come home this summer, we'll be doing a lot of fun things and we'll go fun places. I really wanna go on some golf trips.
Grayson Chrisley
I understand.
Savannah Chrisley
We'll go on some golf trips. It'll be fun. So we've touched on your birthday. Obviously, you're about to be 20. And now I kinda wanna touch on, you know, some things. What I got right versus what I got wrong. So when mom and dad went away, you were 16, I was 25. I had to step in. I mean, that just was the situation. But when I look back now, I question, you know, but, like, what did I do right? What did I do wrong? So when did you stop seeing me as your sister and start seeing me as the person that was in charge?
Grayson Chrisley
Feel like it took a little bit. It definitely took a little bit. Because at first I was like, obviously, like, not in a mean way, but, like, you're not my mom.
Savannah Chrisley
Like, yeah, you and Chloe both. That was a hard one.
Grayson Chrisley
I looked at it as more of like, you're advising me instead of telling me what to do.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
And then when I had to get used to, like, no, she's telling me what to do, that was harder.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. What would you say I got right during that time?
Grayson Chrisley
I think you got most of it right, but I feel like there were some things I feel like a little bit. You expected me to adapt faster than I was going to, and I think that caused us to fight more.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. So I think that goes into the. You know, what I got wrong? I think I definitely looked at it from the perspective. Now I can say, looking back, like, hey, I'm in this with you. We're all going through this. You have to, you know, I'm going through this and I'm adapting. You need to as well. But at the same time, you were 16.
Grayson Chrisley
In closing, I think it all happens differently.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, it does. It all happens differently. And that's where. That's where I kind of dropped the ball. And thinking everyone was supposed to be on my timeframe of like, well, I'm doing this, so you should be doing this.

Savannah Chrisley
Was there a moment in that time period that you really just didn't like me?
Grayson Chrisley
You pissed me off a few times.
Savannah Chrisley
Is there anything that sticks out?
Grayson Chrisley
No, I don't. There's nothing that sticks out. There's certain things that you'd say.
Savannah Chrisley
Like what?
Grayson Chrisley
Trying to think. Well, it was where we argued a lot, was the times when we would go see mom and dad.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Because sometimes, like, don't get me wrong, I wanted to see them, but also I was tired of spending every weekend. Like, I didn't want to spend every weekend. I wanted to do stuff like.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
And I feel like that's where we would get into it a lot. It's like, I don't want to go this weekend. You're like, you have to.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, that. That is very true, I think, because in my mind I was like, hey, they've sacrificed their entire lives for us. The least we can do is show up for them. But that's not realistic. I mean, y' all are in school all week and then on the weekends you're visiting a prison.
Grayson Chrisley
I had baseball. So the free weekends I had, we were going to visit.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
And I was like, I just want one weekend of not doing anything.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
And. But it was. We don't have a tournament this weekend. All right. We're going to see mom or dad.

Grayson Chrisley
I would just say, like, give people time.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. Don't rush it.
Grayson Chrisley
They're not. Nobody's gonna move at the same pace as someone else. Like, you just gotta give them time.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. That is very true. And that's hard for me. Cause I think, all right, well, I'm doing it, so you should be able to do it too. And that's where I kinda get a little tough. And that's something I need to work on. And obviously, you know, I can say things I need to work on, but what would you say? You know, I wanna talk about what people kinda get wrong about me. Now, you can defend me, you can roast me. It doesn't matter. You see me, obviously, when, like, the cameras are off, the Internet sees the versions that I post. So what do people get the most wrong about me? That you think
Grayson Chrisley
it pisses me off when I see comments and they're like, savannah's. Savannah's being a bitch. And I'm like, if you understood the shit she had to deal with, you'd be a bitch too. I'm like, people don't understand that. And also, like, people think that you're so put together and prim and proper and you're just not at all.
Savannah Chrisley
Well, people also think too. Right. I think one of the biggest misconceptions about all of us when mom and dad left was like, oh, I don't want to hear you complain. Like, you've got all this money to do whatever you want to do.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah. There's not all this money.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
That's what people don't realize.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Is there wasn't. Like, they think there was a bunch of money left behind whenever mom and dad left. And there wasn't.
Savannah Chrisley
No. And during that time, it's like, I mean, you even said to dad the other day, dad was like, when have you. When were you told no, though? And you're like, well, I really wasn't. I mean, there were some times my life changed. Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
For sure. But, like, If I wanted to do something, you found a way that I did it.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. What. What are some things that people get right about me? Whether it's funny or.
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know. Not a lot of people get stuff right about us.
Savannah Chrisley
That's the truth. Not a lot of people. That is very.
Grayson Chrisley
Well, we talked about it on the podcast with dad and Chase, and that was like, people think that we're this put together, like, snobby family and like, no, we are trashy. Like, we are.
Savannah Chrisley
I don't know if I would say we are trashy.
Grayson Chrisley
No, we are, Savannah.
Savannah Chrisley
I mean, we're like a tornado.
Grayson Chrisley
Some of the stuff I've seen you do, like what? You really want me to.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
What have I done that you pissed on the golf course in the middle of the fairway.
Savannah Chrisley
Not in the middle of the fairway,
Grayson Chrisley
on the cart path.
Savannah Chrisley
No, it was to the right of the cart path, which was technically in the.
Grayson Chrisley
You literally squatted down and peed on the grass.
Savannah Chrisley
Well, I had to pee. And the bathroom wasn't til you got to the back nine. So like, what was I gonna do?
Grayson Chrisley
Not pee on the golf course?
Savannah Chrisley
I didn't pee on the golf course, guys. I peed in the woods to the right of the cart path. I mean, hey, let's face it. We've all peed in places that, you know, maybe Savannah.
Grayson Chrisley
But Savannah has a habit of this.
Savannah Chrisley
Well, when I have to go, Savannah
Grayson Chrisley
will pee in a bush. She will pee anywhere.
Savannah Chrisley
See? Not so prim and proper. I'm good. And you know, when I did, first off, I'm not the only one that's not prim and proper because no, I
Grayson Chrisley
said, our whole family's trash.
Savannah Chrisley
When I started off this podcast, I said, you know the credit card situation, right? Prem and proper would be using your own credit debit card to doordash food when you live walking distance to the Publix and you know, Taco Bell and every other fast food chain.
Grayson Chrisley
My whole thing is that if I use my card, I'm gonna have to ask for more money anyway. So either way.
Savannah Chrisley
But that's the difference. No, no, you're just trying to manipulate your way around it.
Grayson Chrisley
I'm just saying, like, either way, I'm gonna. Whether it's you, mom or dad, if I use my own card for doordash, that means I have to ask for more money after that.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
So either way.
Savannah Chrisley
No, either way. Because if you were put on an actual budget and said, hey, I'm gonna give you X amount of money this month, Then your doordash orders would come for that, and you're not getting money till the first of the next month. You know exactly what you're doing. First off, I told you to stop using my card, and you still use my card. I just don't really catch it.
Grayson Chrisley
That's why I use it.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, exactly.
Grayson Chrisley
I used it this morning.
Savannah Chrisley
What'd you use it this morning for? My place is right here by three coffee shops where you can.
Grayson Chrisley
I ordered breakfast.
Savannah Chrisley
You can get food there. What did you order? 51st Deli.
Grayson Chrisley
No crepes. I ordered, like, a Nutella crepe and a coffee. I figured it was your fault because you didn't have food in your place.
Savannah Chrisley
Y', all, I have food in my place.
Grayson Chrisley
You literally said to me last night, said, I'm looking for food, and you go, good.
Savannah Chrisley
L. Okay, well, I've been traveling so much, so it may. It's stupid. I'm leaving town again. So it's stupid for me to stock my fridge when I'm leaving town, but I really want. Okay, so you walked me through your process on the card using. And you know what he's actually started doing now? And I haven't called him out on it, nor have I said anything to mom and dad, but you know what he does? He gets money from mom and dad. And then he says to me when? Well, you know, like, yeah, they bitch at me about this and that, and, well, I really want this. And so then he gets me to give him money, so he's.
Advertisement Voiceover
Okay, I.
Grayson Chrisley
Double dipper. I did that. No, I.
Savannah Chrisley
No, look, double dipper.
Grayson Chrisley
I did that the other day because my birthday's coming up, and I was like, do you want to buy me this driver for my birthday?
Savannah Chrisley
Did you get the driver?
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah, I did.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, well, you know what, guys? Suckers get licked, and I'm gonna continue to be a sucker when it comes to Grayson. So Isn't that a saying? Yeah. Yeah, it's a saying between.
Grayson Chrisley
Never mind.
Savannah Chrisley
You know what? Let's hear it.
Grayson Chrisley
You probably have to cut this out. But between you, dad, mom, and I'm
Savannah Chrisley
in good shape, and that's the person.
Grayson Chrisley
In my defense, I don't ask him.
Savannah Chrisley
No, no.
Grayson Chrisley
He just does.
Savannah Chrisley
Yes. The person that I'm with, and I don't even know. Grayson just dropped a bomb because he doesn't even tell me if he sends Grayson money or anything of that nature. Apparently, it just happens. So Grayson's getting.
Grayson Chrisley
I can't say anything.
Savannah Chrisley
Grayson's getting employed, basically by four different people right now. Interesting. Good little tidbit of info that I now have.

Savannah Chrisley
No, it's fine. You know what I do sometimes?
Grayson Chrisley
Cause he was like, don't make a big deal out of it.
Savannah Chrisley
Just, oh, I'm not saying anything. I don't care. It would be different if you were out here getting in trouble, but you're not. So I'm like, whatever. But if, like, we're all out and the person I'm with pays for everything, and I have friends who are like, oh, I'll Venmo you. I always make out really good. Cause I get Venmo'd and I didn't even pay for it. So it's a pretty good deal that we got.
Grayson Chrisley
And I'm the bad one.
Savannah Chrisley
Whatever. I'd say that I'm working smarter. Okay. But now that we've dealt with a credit card fiasco, I do want to talk about, like, your life after college, what you're aspiring to do. You obviously have this dream of being a sports agent, potentially maybe even having your own company and. Tell me about that.
Grayson Chrisley
I mean, I just think it would be a lot of fun. I'd be arguing with billionaires about paying millionaires more money.
Savannah Chrisley
See? And so your major right now, is it a business major with a sports management minor?
Grayson Chrisley
You can't minor in sports management.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay.
Grayson Chrisley
So it has to be your major.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, so your major is in sports management. Do you have a minor?
Grayson Chrisley
No.
Savannah Chrisley
No.
Grayson Chrisley
And that would add more time. And you don't want me to add more time.
Savannah Chrisley
I mean, you could do a sports.
Grayson Chrisley
I could do a real estate minor.
Savannah Chrisley
I mean, I guess it would maybe help you. Right? And helping them.
Grayson Chrisley
Worst case. Yeah, I can.
Savannah Chrisley
But also do a business minor.
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know if you can.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay.
Grayson Chrisley
Because of how big the business school is.
Savannah Chrisley
Makes sense. So when it comes to sports and sports management, I mean, you didn't grow up around the sports business. So what led to that dream of wanting to be involved in that?
Grayson Chrisley
I just love sports, and I've always loved the whole contract aspect of it. I love talking about is this guy worth this money or should he have gotten more? Should he have gotten less or who
Savannah Chrisley
would you say now? Right. So you're coming, you're gonna be coming out of college. What would be your dream first client to represent?
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know, probably any Bama guy.
Savannah Chrisley
Any Bama guy.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah. That would be cool.
Savannah Chrisley
That would be really cool. To graduate from there and then to rep a guy from there.
Grayson Chrisley
Any Bama guy would be cool.
Savannah Chrisley
That would be really fun. So again, you're at Alabama. It's like the football capital, I believe. NIL has clearly changed everything and you've been very passionate about that. I love it from inside the system as a student, what does the NIL world actually look like that we don't see from the outside?
Grayson Chrisley
I mean, I love it, I love Haniel.
Savannah Chrisley
But you love it slash hate it, right?
Grayson Chrisley
I mean, I don't know. I love it more than I hate it. I don't think these kids should be going out there and making hundreds of millions of dollars for these schools. And what you say, well, they're getting a free education. What does that education equate to? A hundred and something thousand dollars out of the hundreds of millions of dollars that they have made for your school.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, but would you say, you know,
Grayson Chrisley
is only one side's making money on that?
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, but are. And for people that don't know NIL is name, image, likeness, is it good for. Would you say that it's actually good for athletes or does it create new problems?
Grayson Chrisley
Both. I mean you're obviously going to have problems when you give an 18 year old kid a million bucks. Yeah, but also if a kid goes out and gets hurt and can't play again and he can't go to the NFL, at least he's got some money to start his life with.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. Now what is it? Nick Saban is actually working within the.
Grayson Chrisley
He's not a big fan.
Savannah Chrisley
Nick Saban's working within the administration right now on NIL and kind of putting parameters around it.
Grayson Chrisley
I think there needs to be like
Savannah Chrisley
a salary cap like there is in
Grayson Chrisley
the pros to stop schools like Ohio state from spending $24 million on one lineup. Yeah, that's what they did last year.
Savannah Chrisley
But why? I guess too right. Why what are.
Grayson Chrisley
So no one's going to watch college football. It's going to be the same people winning every year.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. For instance, like a prime example, right. Ty Simpson, what's the quarterback for Alabama? He got drafted to 13th to the Rams. He got drafted 13th, first round, 13th pick to the Los Angeles Rams. But he was. I know there was speculation about him being offered, what, like $7 million from Miami, maybe?
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah. I mean, we don't know who it was from, but they said. This is all stuff I've read. Yeah, they said he was offered 7
Savannah Chrisley
million and so he was offered 7 million.
Grayson Chrisley
He could have, but he's always been a loyal guy. Yeah, I mean, he stayed at Bama for three years on the bench during the NIL era. He could have left and made money somewhere else.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, but what? Now he's playing for the Rams and he's in California. Those income tax are steep. He could have made more money staying in college than going to the NFL. So what. I mean, what are your thoughts on that?
Grayson Chrisley
He also could have stayed one more year, gotten hurt, and never played in the NFL.
Savannah Chrisley
Mm. Yeah. So you do have to look through that.
Grayson Chrisley
One bad play and he tears an ACL or something and he's done.
Savannah Chrisley
So you actually wrote a paper on this for one of your classes on NIL deals. And what was the premise of that and what was your professor's on what you wrote?
Grayson Chrisley
He liked it. I said that you should have a salary cap and distribute the money out from the revenue share of the conferences.
Savannah Chrisley
Interesting. And what did your professor say about it?
Grayson Chrisley
He said you should show this to somebody. I think it's a great idea.
Savannah Chrisley
That's awesome.
Grayson Chrisley
I don't want to give it to the ncaa. They'd find a way to screw it up.
Savannah Chrisley
And then there's just like they do with everything else, then there's that. So when speaking about college, you know, you found your friend group. You found who's real, who's not. How would you explain the friend vetting process at college as being a kid who is in the public eye? Cause it is harder.
Grayson Chrisley
I don't try to be friends with very many people.
Savannah Chrisley
So how have you let. How have you landed into the friend groups that you're in?
Grayson Chrisley
It's just over time where you see how people act and what they do and stuff like that.
Savannah Chrisley
What have been like? Have you been burned since being there?
Grayson Chrisley
Kind of. But I mean, it wasn't by people that were. I was super close with.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. I mean, without obviously naming names, what does it like, feel feel like to be in a situation like that you're trying to be a kid, trying to go get an education, but everyone knows who you are before you even walk in the door?
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah, I think it's gotten better. My first semester was bad because I'd never been around it, but it's just like, it's not as bad now in the classrooms and stuff.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
But still, like, when you go to places, it's pretty bad. You see people. And I think because we're so used to it that we catch when people look. And you can hear when people whisper. Like.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
When people walk past you, you hear them whisper, oh, my God, it's Savannah Chrisley. Yeah, it's the same thing there. You walk past people going down the street, they look at their friend. Oh, my God. That's crazy.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. Do you. Is there any part of you that kind of loves it? Because for the first time in your life, you are somewhere that none of the rest of the. Of the family is. So it is more focused around you kind of.
Grayson Chrisley
I mean, I. I knew it was going to be crazy if you go. I mean, if you look at my Instagram, you know how it shows the Instagram breakdown?
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Mine's like 90% female and 18 to 24.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
So, like, that's the people that follow me. So it's like when I'm down there, everybody's like, oh, my God. I just keep walking.
Savannah Chrisley
But you've never really been one in the family to love the public eye.
Grayson Chrisley
Sometimes I don't like it.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Like, I was at Tu Dimes one time and somebody took their boot off and handed it to me to sign it. I was like, all right.
Savannah Chrisley
And your signature is poof.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
Not one of the best ones in the world.
Grayson Chrisley
It's a signature, though.
Savannah Chrisley
I love that. And so obviously, you're out in the world on your own and you have gone from, you know, my baby brother is how I've always viewed you. But now you're like six foot something, 165 pounds. And it's like, you know, the roles are flipping in a way.

Do you feel more protective?
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah, I mean, we talked about this on the podcast. I'll be out places. You know, people say stuff, but if they Say something about Dad. I usually just let it go, cuz I know dad can take it. Yeah, but if they say something about you or mom, like, I'm ready to go to jail.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, well, we don't need that. We've had plenty of Chrisley's.
Grayson Chrisley
I've called. I've caused a few scenes over some stuff.
Savannah Chrisley
Like what?
Grayson Chrisley
No, they'll just say something about you and think, I'm not going to say anything. And I'll turn around and walk up to him and be like, you say it again, and it's a whole scene.
Savannah Chrisley
But also, I feel like that's how it should be. Like, I feel like more men should be that way. Protecting the people that they love versus allowing people to run all over them.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah, it's. If they say something about you or mom, they're gonna get a reaction, and
Savannah Chrisley
it may not be one that you like people.
Grayson Chrisley
It's not. I mean, I've turned around a few times and looked at somebody and been like, fu. I got no problem turning around and saying that.
Savannah Chrisley
Good for you. And two, I just think our relationship has definitely changed so much, but we will always be, like, best friends. And it's like, you know, going to football games and doing fun stuff, and especially, like, your 21st birthday. We're gonna have to start planning for that.
Grayson Chrisley
No, I want to go to Vegas.
Savannah Chrisley
Gray, you really don't. Vegas is not what it used to.
Grayson Chrisley
I do. I don't care. I want to. I want to go.
Savannah Chrisley
What do you want to do?
Grayson Chrisley
I've wanted to go ever since I watched the Hangover.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, well, your birthday is not going to be the Hangover. I'll kill you.
Grayson Chrisley
But I want to go so bad.
Savannah Chrisley
Oh, no.
Grayson Chrisley
Going in the casino and all that. That'd be fun. So much fun.
Savannah Chrisley
You're more for the casino aspect.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
Oh, God, help me. Well, do I have to come on your 21st birthday?
Grayson Chrisley
You do. You and a bunch of my friends.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, Grayson's already, like, planning, hey, we're gonna do this. Do that. Can I use this? Can I use that?
Grayson Chrisley
Cause all my friends are gonna be 21.
Savannah Chrisley
Oh, yeah. Really?
Grayson Chrisley
The last one in my entire friend group to turn 21.
Savannah Chrisley
Holy cow. But you do have friends who are older. And why do you think all of
Grayson Chrisley
my friends are older?
Savannah Chrisley
Why do you think that is?
Grayson Chrisley
Because everybody I've been around my whole life is older.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, you just do better with people who are older.
Grayson Chrisley
Well, even, like. I mean, a good example of that is Raelyn's husband.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Josh was on the phone with him, and one of my friends was like, how old's that guy? And I'm like, oh, he's like, late 30s. They're like, what? I'm like, yeah, talk to him every day.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah. Well, it's because people who have shown up for you in your life, you're a very loyal person. So people who have shown up for you, you never forget it. And I think, too, people like Josh, right. Who have been a great influence and who have been there for you and have helped you.
Grayson Chrisley
Well, I mean, like, we known them since I was, like, 10.
Savannah Chrisley
That's crazy.
Grayson Chrisley
And when he told me he was going into the military, I started crying. I thought he was going to die.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
And then they had to lie to me and say he was going into secret service.
Savannah Chrisley
That's crazy.
Grayson Chrisley
Dad had to make up a whole thing that he was going into secret service. He's not actually going into, like, war.
Savannah Chrisley
I didn't know that.
Grayson Chrisley
Come to find out, he was like a Green Beret. And I was like, oh, okay, that.
Savannah Chrisley
That's different than what I was told.
Grayson Chrisley
That's way different.
Savannah Chrisley
But okay. So that's crazy. I had no idea.
Grayson Chrisley
I had, like, a whole breakdown over it.
Savannah Chrisley
Holy cow.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
But see, it's so amazing to have those people in your life who are loyal, who you love. And it just goes to show that, like, I've always said, family doesn't always have to be blood. It can be how people treat you and show up for you.
Grayson Chrisley
Well, we even still talked when he was on a military base.
Savannah Chrisley
No way.
Grayson Chrisley
He'd get his phone back and text me.
Savannah Chrisley
That's crazy.
Grayson Chrisley
And I remember there's one year we were trying to figure out our fantasy draft, and we had to plan it around when he had his phone on the military base so that he could draft his tee. Stop. Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
All right. So we've kind of touched on all things. So when you think of your life five years from now, what do you envision? Like, where are you living? Who are you with?
Grayson Chrisley
Probably either Texas or Florida.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay.
Grayson Chrisley
That's where I want to live.
Savannah Chrisley
See, I have told you, when I go to build in Florida, I will have a guest house, and it can be yours. And we will golf, you will work. It will be fun.
Grayson Chrisley
I've had a weird feeling recently that I'm gonna end up doing something that has nothing to do with what I want to do right now.
Savannah Chrisley
Why?
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know.
Savannah Chrisley
What does that even mean?
Grayson Chrisley
It's just, like, I feel like something's gonna come out of nowhere. And it's going to be, like, better than what I was wanting to do.
Savannah Chrisley
I mean, that's kind of how God works, right? Like when you make plans. He laughs type deal. I mean, obviously you're passionate about sports and that's what you want to do, but you also are very much an entrepreneur. You have an entrepreneurial mindset.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah, I. I was talking about the other day, if I could become a general manager of a team, would you
Savannah Chrisley
want to do that?
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know. I think I could do a lot better than some of these people out here.
Savannah Chrisley
Do they get paid a lot of money?
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah. I was watching the draft and there were some picks. I was like, what are you doing?
Savannah Chrisley
Really?
Grayson Chrisley
This is awful.
Savannah Chrisley
So we've talked about life after college, college campuses, all that. This past year on college campuses, you've seen a lot of things change. What would you say about the faith on college campuses?
Grayson Chrisley
I would say it's become very hostile.
Savannah Chrisley
Really?
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
And what way?
Grayson Chrisley
Because I think I had a teacher yell at me because I told her it takes a man and a woman to make a child.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay.
Grayson Chrisley
And she. And then she told me that I was a man I'm not allowed to have an opinion on.
Savannah Chrisley
Well, that's kind of insane.
Grayson Chrisley
I said, last time I checked, it took two people to make a child. And I asked her that. I was respectful. I asked her, I said, just a quick question. How many people does it take to make a child? She goes, well, it depends. I said, no, nothing. Said, how many people does it take? I said, you need one thing from one person, another thing from another person. Yeah, so two people. She got pissed off.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, I do think. But again, that's. You know, this debate has been.
Grayson Chrisley
I don't. I can't believe we've already been debating about this. Like.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, but this debate has been had for a while now, but especially over the past few years about the indoctrination of institutions. And you see it firsthand. You've seen it firsthand in one of your classes with one of your professors.
Grayson Chrisley
I will admit it's. It's not all of them. No, it's a few bad apples is what it is.
Savannah Chrisley
Do you think, though, when it comes to faith on college campuses, have you seen, like, a resurgence?
Grayson Chrisley
Seen a lot of people be more vocal? A lot of people.
Savannah Chrisley
Do you feel like the younger demographics, especially men, are having a hard time connecting with God or faith, especially on college campuses? Or have you seen kind of. Because there have been studies to where it has shown there's been a resurgence in faith in God on college campuses.
Grayson Chrisley
The churches in Tuscaloosa are packed out.
Savannah Chrisley
Really?
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
Would you say it's more packed out after the assassination of Charlie Kirk?
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know if it's more packed out, but I think more people are being vocal about it than they were before.
Savannah Chrisley
And what about you? Where would you say you're at in that journey as a college kid?
Grayson Chrisley
I'd say I'm at a good place. I just don't like going to the huge, mega churches that try to turn it into a concert. Like, I went to one. I think it was around Easter. It was a huge, mega church. But the pastor was. You watched him on a screen.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
I was like, you got all this money to build all these big buildings, but you ain't got enough money to bring somebody here in person?
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, that.
Grayson Chrisley
To me, that defeats the purpose.
Advertisement Voiceover
That's.
Savannah Chrisley
That's a big difference.
Grayson Chrisley
I can watch the same thing at home in my living room.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah, that's. That's a big.
Grayson Chrisley
That's what I. That's. That's one thing that. That's one thing I really didn't like.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, the. That's really interesting, and I'm glad that you pick up on that, because that's something I have struggled with for a while, is churches.
Grayson Chrisley
I can't stand doing that. You walk into these churches, it's huge, beautiful buildings.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
High tech, all this nice stuff, but you can't bring somebody here to do it in person.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Everybody's got to sit in a room and watch it. Like, we're all watching a movie at the movie theater.
Savannah Chrisley
Yeah.
Grayson Chrisley
Like.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, so on a lighter note, before we wrap up, I want to play a game. Now, I don't know how you're going to feel about it, but we're going to do it in live time. So let me see your phone. Unlock it.
Grayson Chrisley
Oh, God.
Savannah Chrisley
All right, so I have a list, and we're gonna go through it. Last text you sent and to whom.
Grayson Chrisley
Think my car guy.
Savannah Chrisley
Let's see. Well, see, you have so many. Who has this many people pinned.
Grayson Chrisley
I think my car guy was last text.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay.
Grayson Chrisley
Was it not?
Savannah Chrisley
I don't know. No, it was Josh.
Grayson Chrisley
Oh, that's Josh.
Savannah Chrisley
Because they said you said you would have to get your poncho out because I would bust. Okay. You gotta even me.
Grayson Chrisley
You gotta put some context. Out. Because they announced that the Braves are a top five landing spot for Mike Trout. And I told him, I said, if we got Mike Trout, you would have to Put your poncho on because I would bust bus.
Savannah Chrisley
Wow. Okay, last text. Last text you received and from who that would be from is in my car. Go Purcell Farms.
Grayson Chrisley
Oh, no. Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
Which is where? It's amazing. We love to go there and golf. Hey, buddy, did you get a count on how many so I can see if we can get you in? That's really sweet of them.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
Shout out to Purcell Farms. You guys are great. Last three photos in your camera.
Grayson Chrisley
I don't know what that is.
Savannah Chrisley
Last three photos.
Grayson Chrisley
Let me see whoever this guy is. Mike Trout in a brave jersey.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay. Oh, this is very ironic. His crepes and coffee that he ordered on my card this morning. And then someone's dog. Someone's dog.
Grayson Chrisley
Yeah.
Savannah Chrisley
Okay, last song you played on Spotify.
Grayson Chrisley
I don't listen to Spotify. I go to Apple music.
Savannah Chrisley

Grayson Chrisley
Oh, that's your created person.
Savannah Chrisley
His creative person's really created, and that's for sure. Okay, anything you want to delete before I scroll any further?
Grayson Chrisley
I don't like people having my phone.
