So you have two brothers.
Two brothers.
Are they older or younger?
Older.
Yeah, how much older?
Nine years and seven years.
Oh, so a lot older.
Yeah, a lot older. Oh OK.
So, were you like a mistake or was this--
I don't know.
I've always asked my Mom is I was a mistake
and I don't think she really tells me the truth.
She doesn't want you to know?
I don't think she wants me to know.
But you may not have been planned.
I might not have been planned, no.
I don't think I was.
Does that bother you?
No, that doesn't bother me.
Yeah, 'cause my boys are seven years apart.
Really?
Yeah.
Is Jordan the younger one?
Yes.
Was he planned?
Let me tell you how planned he was.
(laughing)
After I had Jay, I had a vasectomy.
What?!
Yeah.
So?
I don't tell people this but I'm telling you
because we're friends.
No, after Jay, I had a vasectomy because,
I can't believe I'm telling this.
Robin, she wanted to have a baby.
I didn't really want it at the time.
So, after we had the one, I had a vasectomy.
Then, I did this kinda life skills seminar thing
that I did sometimes and she was there.
There were like 300 people there
and we're in this big ballroom.
I purposely stayed away from her.
Yeah.
She's totally across the ballroom.
But the ceiling was dome like a parabolic reflector
of where you can whisper in one side
and hear at the other side. And hear at the other, yeah.
It was a time where they were talking about
any regrets they had and I hear her whisper,
"I'm sorry to have one child."
No way.
I'm like 100 yards away.
No way!
I hear that whisper in my ear and I thought,
"Oh God." (laughing)
Because to me, just having one was like on a scale
of one to 10, it was a two.
And to her, it was like a 10.
Right.
So, the next day, I'm at the hospital making rounds
and the guy that delivered Jay is a good friend of ours.
I'm telling him this 'cause he had been through this
thing I did.
Yeah.
I tell him when it happened and what happened.
He said, "Well, ya know, we could reverse that."
About that time, his brother-in-law comes around the corner
who's a urological surgeon.
Oh my God.
He comes around the corner and he tells me about it.
He says, "Well, we could say he's going into
"the operating room for a vasectomy,
"'cause that's just day surgery.
"We could just sneak him in there."
So they take me in and do micro surgery,
under a microscope and put everything back together.
That's crazy!
There and then, they did it?
Right then!
What?!
So I call her, just to be sure,
I call her on the phone and I say,
I totally make up a story.
She said, "What are you doing?"
I said, "I'm at the hospital and there's this woman
"and her husband's thinking about do they wanna
"have a baby or not."
She said, "Don't you try to talk her out of it."
No way!
I was just testing to see how strongly she felt.
She said, "Don't you try to talk her
"out of having another baby."
Oh my God.
I said, "Oh my God." Then you knew.
So I hung up. (chuckles) Fuck.
And they smuggle me into the surgery room
saying I'm gonna get a vasectomy.
They do it and next thing I know,
it's 6:00 at night and they're waking me up saying,
"You have got to walk out of here.
"We're all gonna get busted.
"You gotta walk outta here." Oh my God.
So, they drive me to my house, to the curb.
They put me outta the car.
They put a pink baby gift under one arm,
a blue baby gift under the other arm,
honk the horn and drive off.
No!
And left me standing there.
She had no idea and she comes out and said,
"What are you doing?"
I'm still under anesthesia.
These are my friends!
They just leave me standing there.
And so, I walk up and say,
"I just had my vasectomy reversed."
She just burst into tears.
Awe.
They said there was a 50/50 chance
within the next two years.
Eight weeks later, she's pregnant
with Jordan. Eight weeks?!
The McGraw boys are swimmers.
Yeah, they really are.
Eight weeks later,
she's pregnant with Jordan. Some good genes.
That's amazing! So that's my story.
Wow!
So, was he planned?
Damn right he was planned.
We worked on this.
That's amazing.
So they're seven years apart and that's why.
Wow.
I love Jordan, by the way.
Yeah, well thank you.
He's an interesting kid.
Yeah, he's becoming a good friend of mine and Joe's.
Yeah.
He's really fun.
Yeah, he's a fun, very talented and a fun kid.
I'm really proud of him.
Yeah.
He thinks the world of you, by the way.
Thanks (laughs).
So, your brothers are seven and nine years older.
I don't know how we got off on that.
Why am I telling that story?
It's a good story.
Yeah, that is. You'll get a lot of
ratings on that one.
Yeah, I guess.
