"One of my goals is to raise this kid to have impeccable manners," McCollum said.

He went on to name a few things he learned as a kid, including saying "yes, sir" and "no, sir," blessing meals and taking his hat off when meeting a woman.

I have met and interviewed McCollum several times with a female present and I have seen with my own eyes that he takes off his hat and bows his head when he meets every single lady. It's quite the task.

"Like, that was such a big thing when I was a kid," he said. "And now I'm, like, so grateful that I was raised like that."
