And I guess we should say DeDee Frazier is back again.

Listen, you're not back again, 'cause you haven't gone anywhere.

How you doing?

- I am wonderful.

How are you?

- Great.

Well, we wanna say Happy Father's Day to everybody.

We don't know if this is the Father's Day show, but Father's Day should be coming up real soon, okay.

So we want people to go past the tie rack and the sock rack.

You know how it go.

I think you ladies got a thing where y'all regift the gifts.

Not you, not you.

Let me take you out of that.

- No, I would never regift a gift.

- Well, let me ask you, look at my eye.

Look in my eye.

Have you ever?

- I didn't give it to the same person.

(both laughing) - So you had to look me in the eye though, you.

- But you know, it was legit.

I'm allergic to coconut and somebody gave me something with coconut, so I.

- Coconut it forward.

- I coconut it away from me.

Yes.

- Great, well we are so glad to have you on "Alabama Gospel Roots."

- Thank you.

- Always.

You served several capacities; administrative assistant and you know, Psalmist and all of that other, we appreciate you.

What's been going on, man?

I've been checking you out.

You had something you did at The Perfect Note.

And who are the owners?

Gimme the owners of The Perfect Note.

- The owners of The Perfect Note, that is Tremaine and Karen Thompson.

- Okay.

- They have The Perfect Note here in Birmingham, Alabama, and they also have one in Atlanta.

And for Easter I did what was called Resurrected Soul.

And I got a chance to actually sing about the Lord on Easter Sunday.

- Wow.

I heard it was awesome.

- In the club.

- Uh-oh.

- So you know.

- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

He goes everywhere.

- He goes everywhere.

- He was already there.

- Yes.

- Amen.

- Yes, he was.

- All right.

Well, and you've been doing some acting.

- I've been doing some acting.

I recently did "King in the 1300," which is a social drama stage play about the last three days of Dr. King's life and the reason why he was in Memphis in the first place before he got assassinated.

- And who played your husband?

- You know, this man, I know his name.

Which, what is his name?

That's right.

Go right on over there and give 'em a big hug.

And then if they're real sweet, give 'em a kiss on the cheek, all right.

Okay, I got you.

Okay, so anything big coming up for you guys in the future, April, May, June that you need us to know about?

- Well, we, everything to us is special and big to us.

- I gotcha.

- Something like that.

We do have, we've just come off of about, I said in the last month, in three weeks time we sang 15 times.

- Wow.

- So we've been singing a lot.

We've been on a lot of great events like the Big and Live in Gadsden with the Kingsman and also with Southern Gospel Weekend and a lot of other big events.

We've got big events coming up with Never Too Late Ministries with, you know, our friend Brother Dennis.

And we've got a lot of big things that's coming up, but they're all big to us.

- There you go.

I love that.

- Yeah.

- You're just beautiful people.

- We try to.

- Well, you doing a good job with it.

Now you hang out with Dennis now, you'll be singing like 158 programs in one week.

- Thank you Dennis - That's Dennis Williams.

You guys know we appreciate Dennis doing all that he does.

And then he's got a great help meet with Susan.

- Yes he does.

- Yeah.

Hey, listen, he be smiling and going, you know.

- I remember the last time me and you predicted on that show that we did the last time, we said he was gonna be getting married.

And remember, they looked at each other and they was married in about a month, wasn't it?

- Yeah, exactly.

- Wasn't they?

- Amen.

- You're a prophetess.

- That's it, that's it.

- What else you see?

- Well, I can't say it all right now.

- All right, well listen, we're getting ready to close and what we like to always say to the people, and this is real important 'cause as I say, Saturday night at 8 o'clock on Alabama public television, sometimes this is the most inspirational time that anybody can receive.

And we have a great time up here, but we are serious.

And the most important thing is to look on us.

You know, people look at us and they say, you know, they kinda a little different.

You got a big guy, you got a medium guy, you got a lady there and you got a, I don't know how we can describe him.

- He's an Indian.

- He's, okay.

Well, I'm going to leave it alone.

- Oh, okay.

- Let you say, but that's because we can do this every day of our lives, guys.

Come on, different doesn't make you bad, it just makes you.

- That's right.

- Hey, something different to interact with.

Somebody just, that you don't know.

- Right?

- That's it.

- I didn't know you growing up, but if we had known each other, we'd have been a terror in high school.

- And we would have been.

(all laughing) - I believe that.

- It would've been there go Robbie and George.

They did it.

That's okay.

But guess what?

We are here now lifting Him.

- Amen.

- Amen.

It is beautiful.

Come back anytime you get ready.

- Thank you.

- You don't have to wait till Dennis call.

You just call Dennis say- - Oh, okay.

- I want to come on the show and I guarantee you he'll work it out.

- I know he will.

- He'll tell me "Brother George, I got a call from Robbie and she said she want to be on the show."

And I said, "What you calling me for?

Tell her, yes."

- Come on.

- All right, so thank you guys for being with us and everybody smile when you see other people, don't go around with a frown in your face.

It takes more muscles to frown than it does to to smile.

So smile and show all your teeth.

And if you don't have but one or three or two or none- - That's good.

- Show 'em how to smile.

That's what I'm talking about.

All right, here we go everybody.

All right, you gonna say this with me?

You got your mic up?

Okay, I want y'all to say this in harmony now.

It's the first time I tried, you showed me, it was a test earlier, okay.
