I'm Clayton Bromberg, the president of Underwoods.

Almost every day, we see customers who've shopped around and are totally confused about how to select a diamond.

They're looking for someone qualified who'll tell them the truth and they can trust.

They've heard about certificates on diamonds, wholesale diamonds, internet diamonds,

deals that a friend of a friend can get them, and the prices that range from unbelievably low to unbelievably high.

One of the reasons for the confusion is if you look at the factors of grading a diamond,

after you know the carat weight, there are 11 grades for cut, 21 grades for color, 11 grades for clarity,

so you have 2,541 different possibilities, all with different prices.

That's where Underwoods helps straighten out the confusion,

because we have the American Gem Society credentialed professionals that'll help guide a customer to the right diamond for them,

one she'll be happy with for the rest of her life.

So come by and let one of our professionals help you.

At Underwoods, San Marco, Avondale, or the shops of Ponte Vedra.

I see a corksicle!

Don't look ahead!

Okay.

That's a gift.

Just because every day is a gift.

Every day is a gift.

That's why they call it the present.

Talk.

Hello.

I think that'll work.

You think this is gonna work?

I do.

Before we start, one question.

What would that be?

You are again?

Katie.

That's right.

We used to do a show together.

Katie Forbes Von Hermann.

Oh my god, I am particularly spitty.

And from Great Britain, apparently.

A little bit spitty!

I am a bit spitty!

I'm a bit spitty!

A little bit spitty! I am a bit spitty! I'm a bit spitty! Alright, hold on. Pip-pip and cheerio. Everything okay? Rob, I've been uncomfortable for three weeks. I understand. We haven't done this in a while. I think it's gonna come back to you like, just like throwing a ball. It's like rocket science. I understand. Hold on. Mike O'Mara, Radio Entertainment. Hey there! This is Katie with a very hateful thought of the day. I hate mashed potatoes, creamed corn, rice-a-roni, and macaroni. Steamed salmon, blended soup, instant stuffing, yogurt, and jello. Any noodles with red sauce, white sauce, pesto sauce, or no sauce at all. All soups of any flavor. Especially chunky soups not advertised as such. I hate ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and sherbet, but will still make exceptions for a chocolate frosty from the Wendy's. I hate steamed spinach, overcooked green beans, and anything preceded by the word shredded. I hate soft foods! And you! I hate you too! I'm trying not to step on food. You wouldn't do very good at a dining hall for the older demographic, then. Oh yes I would. Half of them don't have teeth. Yeah, but I'm saying you'd hate the food. Oh yeah, but I would, I could eat everything there. Yes you could. Yes. You know what you didn't mention? No. Applesauce? Mm-hmm. I only had a little bit of applesauce. When we were watching the babies, I stole a couple of the applesauce to-go packets. Hateful grown-up. Mm-hmm. Yeah. You were. You took food from the mouth of a child? She has plenty packets of applesauce. Yeah, it shows. And she shares really well. You saying that she gives stuff to each other, or does she do an impression of sharing? She loves to share with the dogs. That's really not sharing. She's like Dr. Doolittle. She's disposing. She doesn't talk to the dogs. Yes, she does. Do the dogs respond? Uh, I mean, like, Coda is her dog. She says Coco. But, I mean, she doesn't actually converse with the dog. Oh, like they're going to talk back to the dog right now. Yeah, that's the whole thing of Dr. Doolittle. That's the thing of Dr. Doolittle. That's me. That's right. When we were babysitting, I had a Dr. Doolittle moment with all of the animals. Okay, hang on. We must start with the dude. We do. And like the dogs, we don't really converse with dude. We hear him, but we don't talk with him. I talk with my dogs. But we don't talk with dude. Right, no. Well, because he's on tape. He's on tape. He's not talking. Right. Stand by. In three, two. Hey, dude, what show is this? Cake and Cookies. Rob and Katie. It's the Rob and Katie Show. That was almost talking with him. I know. See how that worked? So you're back. I'm back. You know what? Thank God. Okay. I don't know that you mean that. No, I do. I've missed seeing you. You've been not allowed to talk for nearly a month. It's been pretty awful. And you know what else? What? I'm really bad at that. Of not talking? Oh, Lord. I tried not to call you much because you're not supposed to talk. And when I'd call you, we'd all have a million things to say. And I would just say something like, how you doing? Do you think we can do something this week? And then I'd look and we'd been on the phone 25 minutes. I know. I know. So how are you feeling? Let's start with you and your face. Your face. No, your face. You had your surgery. Yep. And actually, I mean, I don't want to be a negative Nelly, but it didn't go quite as easily as you'd hoped. No, I had a couple complications and went back a couple times for some adjustments, touch-ups. Awesome. Let's say that someone is listening for the very first time. And by the way, good time to jump on the bandwagon. If they are joining us for the first time, give us a brief reset of what's going on with your face. Okay. About a little over two years ago, I broke my jaw. Right. Broke it on one side, dislocated it on the other. Okay. What's the difference between a break and a dislocation? Well, okay, it's a ball socket joint. By the way, dislocation is right near the metro, so it's going to bring a premium. Dislocation. Dislocation right here. It's all about dislocation, location, location. So it's a ball and socket joint. The jaw, there's two balls and two sockets. Right, left and right. So on one side, the side that broke, can you hold that? I can. Okay. On one side, the side that broke, the little ball from the ball and socket actually broke off. Okay. And that has not been reattached or anything. That's just- Floating? Hanging out in there somewhere. It may or may not have sort of exploded. Okay. And just disappeared. Right. My heating pads are no longer hot. Okay. Well, as soon as Dan wakes up, we'll get them reheated. He was- Go! I better learn it. So nice to have him back. Heem back. He's probably- He's a little stressed. He's been taking care of me. Right. We put our house on the market. We painted Maurice Weaverman's room. Oh, the haunted room? The haunted room is no longer weird. So we call it the not weird anymore room. But you know, it might be- I don't know that you can paint over haunted. I know. I mean, and how many coats did you use? Because I think to get rid of haunted, you're going to need at least like four or five coats. Oh, it took a lot. Did you all paint or did you hire painters? We hired a painter. I see. Was he a little Italian man? No, he was Bolivian. Was it Oscar? It wasn't. Oh, because that would be amazing. Do you know- Okay, even though I recognize the chances, do you know how hard it was for me to not ask if he knew? Yeah. Well, I mean- Because I know Oscar's real name. I know you do, but it's not like they know each other. I know. I'm aware. It's not like a happening connected community. I know. He's like, oh, the guy in the podcast? Mm-hmm. Is that Italian or was that even a little Bolivian? I am just Dirty Man. I don't know what that was. It's one of the voices I do. The Dirty Man Painter. The Dirty Man Painter. So you painted there, but let's focus on your face. Okay. So I had the surgery and what they did was called- Mandibular? Arthroscopic lavage. Lavage. And- By the way, that's also the name of the painter in the room. Because there's no joints. There's no cartilage left in the joints. So it's just bone grinding on bone. Ah. Okay. So they do a lavage which rinses out. Right. And we talked about this. Essentially, it's a hole up top and a hole at the bottom and they rinse it. Yeah. To get the garbage out. And while they've got it open, they put some injections of a fake kind of cartilage to give it some padding. Okay. They adjust everything in there to make sure it's all set in place. Right. Exactly. And then throughout places on my face, behind my ears. Right. Up into my hair, where all the major jaw muscles begin and end. Yes. They will shoot them with Botox. Now this, we discussed before, it's sort of, even though Botox kills muscles, it- It paralyzes them. It paralyzes them. Mm-hmm. So that will allow your face to relax more so than it could in a real environment to allow it to heal? Well, you want to keep everything very loose. Sure. Because if the joint- Not everything. Am I right, Dan? If you- Extra stitch for daddy. That's right. In my face? So- Hey, whatever. Sure. So essentially, to keep those muscles loose, they paralyze them with Botox. Okay. And you want to keep everything very loose. That's why I use heat- Right. Instead of ice. Mm-hmm. It keeps it separated. Uh-huh. The more tense the muscles get- Yes. The more likely they are to cause me to bite down- I believe- Or grind, and then the bones wind up grinding and pushing through the fake cartilage. I believe it was the band The Offspring. Uh-huh. Who said you've got to keep them separated. You've got to keep them separated. Exactly. Was it The Offspring or was it 311? It was Offspring. Okay. Because I don't know what a 311 is. I know what an offspring is. It's a band. It's a baby. It's a baby. So you're recovering, and you really were on like three weeks of doctor-prescribed medicated silence. I'm still supposed to be on restricted talking. Right. Because I did have to go back like twice the- I went- So I had the procedure on Monday. Uh-huh. I went back- This was Monday early in November? The 27th. 27th of October. Mm-hmm. Okay. Um, I had to go back that Thursday. Right. Uh, I was in so much pain, they made me come in on Wednesday. Ah. It really was a rocky start. Right. So they gave me a couple more shots. Mm-hmm. Uh, and adjusted the cartilage. Um, then over that weekend, that first weekend, so I had the surgery on Monday, that following weekend, Saturday night was so bad. It was about three o'clock in the morning, and I was up just sobbing. I couldn't stop crying. I was in so much pain. Ah. And I'm not, I'm not looking for sympathy. Like, that's not, that's not it. Well, you'll not get it, but- But I'm trying, I'm trying to tell the story. You are, and you are, you're conveying that. And at this point, and Dan is such a sweetheart, he's like getting the red cheeks with me. Sure. He's just so upset. So we call the doctor line. I said, doctor! Doctor! Doctor! Doctor! And having no idea that if you call and left a message, whatever. He called us back. Well, it's like an answering service, I'm sure. Right, but the doctor called back at 1.30 in the morning. That's good. That's a good doctor. I'm so surprised.
