Dad Explains Gen Z Slang: Rizz, NPC Energy, and Mid (Back In My Day Rant) · Stay Outta My Fridge

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Here my day is a sentence alone that probably makes
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: half the internet mad and maybe half of the Internet
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: start to lean in, but it is a one chance
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: that it makes my entire house super annoyed. Because back
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: in my day things didn't make more sense. I feel
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: like they just made us a little bit tougher. Today
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: I'm going to explain the modern world using absolutely outdated logic,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: a little bit of some coach energy, and confidence that
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: I definitely did not earn. Welcome back, everybody to stay
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: out of my fridge podcast. This one's for the dads,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: It's for the coaches. It's for the guys who sit
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: in the driveway for an extra minute because the house
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: feels a little bit loud, and mostly because I don't
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: have any kids today, the wife's away, I don't have
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: a co host, so you're gonna just get me. Probably
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: gonna be a little bit of a shorter episode, but
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: it's some stuff that I feel like is relevant to again,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: dad's coaches, and you know, just anybody who remembers when
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: phones actually had buttons and music well had guitar solos.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I'm not here to yell. I'm here to explain, I guess,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and I'm probably gonna explain things poorly, but either way,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I can't thank everybody enough for the support. Check out
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: the friends of the show. All right, I've recently stopped
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: drinking coffee, and you're probably thinking, all right, this is
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: when I turned the show off. If I haven't ended, No, no,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: no no. I recently started drinking what is called Squatch juice.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: It's fun to say whether you're a Bigfoot fan or
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: a Squatcher. This is just an amazing juice. I've not
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: only been doing the hydration, but I've been doing the
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: energy and a focus. It's got some caffeine in it,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: but it's got a lot of vitamins and I have
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: just been feeling so much better. And it comes in
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: four different flavors Pineapple, mango, strawberry, Kiwi, lemonnade, watermelon. It's
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: just the thirty individual packets. Just rip dump. You can
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: put them in your protein shakes, dump them in some water,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: probably can eve, dump them in some coffee, and put
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: really in anything. I honestly have not felt this good
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: in a while from them. If you want to check
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: it out, go to squatch Jewice dot com, slice Beard

• 2:29
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a little extra comments. I got it
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: in a bun because I've been super busy with practices
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: and having to get some stuff done, and it's thanks
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: to Live Bearded. This is honestly the best beard products

• 2:46
  Speaker 1: or a buddy or a husband, or a dad or
• 2:49

• 3:00
  Speaker 1: one of the best beards that you can grow. All right,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: thank you for letting me get that. And let's jump
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: into some things, all right, because I want to talk
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: some TikTok slang. Yeah, I got a TikTok beard laws.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Maybe you've seen me react and there's some people shaving
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: off their beards, all right. Maybe you've seen me getting
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: the beard ready for the day, all right. But I'm
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: not overly into some of the TikTok slange because back
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: in my day of something was bad, and no what
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: we said, we said it was bad. It's sh I
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: was gonna say the word, but I probably should avoid
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: swearing for this one. Now. Apparently instead of just saying
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: it's bad, it's apparently mid. What doesn't mean I'm not
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent sure. I'm assuming it's mid. It's middle.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: It's like a five out of ten, it's like a
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: two and a half out of five. It's just nh
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: it's me. It's mid. Sounds like something you would say
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: when you don't want to commit, right, I mean mid.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: It's not the most annoying thing that people say, because,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: let's be honest, that whole six to seven thing has
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: well come. Hopefully it's gone. It's served its purpose. It's
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: been around a little bit too long. It's kind of
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: like that guy that is really really drunk at the bar,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: had way too many, way over served, needed to leave
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: about forty minutes ago, but for whatever reason, is still
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: just there. It's stuck around for too long. Don't be
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: that guy. Thankfully, the basketball team they have decided as
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: a group, I think they were gonna leave six to
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: seven in twenty twenty five. I'm personally thankful for that,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: but another thing too. Back in my jay, confidence you know,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: it meant looking someone in the eye and being wrong publicly,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: And apparently now it's called rizz. Isn't confidence, it's confidence
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: with background music. I think that's also when other thing
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: that's kind of on its way out rizzing. There is
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: like back of my day, you know what I mean,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: there was there was rappers, ODB there is a you
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like I'm sure I said some
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: you know, not just me, but like my generation has
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: said some pretty dumb things back in the day. I know,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: cool beans was a thing that was floated around a lot.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Probably not overly cool with the kids these days, but
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I guess at the time. Let me know, in the comments,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: what is something that you truly despise hearing the kids say?
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: And what is something that you would say that your
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: parents definitely hated hearing you say? Make sure it's YouTube appropriate,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: no no f bombs. I'm sure most parents don't overly
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: appreciate that. Right now, if somebody has NPC energy, I
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: guess that just means they're tired. I mean, we didn't
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: diagnose it. We said, all right, you just kept moving.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: We didn't y'all. You got that a piece of energy today.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Oh bro, no, we don't. We were just like you. Good,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: you're tired, all right? Kept moving. Another thing that I
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: don't overally love is the uh, let's go. It has
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: its time and place, but you just look dumb when
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: you say it for no reason. I mean, right, is
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: it me? I sound cranky? Let's let's go ahead and
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: move on. Back in my day, parenting advice was simple.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: You tried something. If it worked, you did it again.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: If it didn't, you acted like that was the plan
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: all along. Kids, especially now in the world of short
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: form content, they don't listen to speeches. They listen to tone.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: You can say anything if you say it like a
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: coach at halftime. Hey, eyes up, breathe, We're going to
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: figure this out. I mean that's kind of parenting, right.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: You have to learn to adapt, you have to learn
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the situation. There's different situations that arise every single day.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: And I live in a house full of girls, and
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I'm learning as a parent on the fly pretty much
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: every day as well. I didn't grow up in a
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: house with sisters, and it's it's a lot different. And
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: not only is that helping me out with the parenting,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: but it's also happening with the coaching, you know, being
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: a guy that coaches a lot of girls sports, it's
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: it's been a learning experience. And another thing I learned is,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: you know, as a parent, you know, kids they can
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: almost sense or smell fear, you know, the the second
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: kind of like you hesitate. I really feel like they know.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: And you know, it's just kind of one of those
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: things that you tread the line. I mean, we all
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: have patience, and we all have lack thereof on some days,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: and just keep putting enough good into the world and
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: eventually those kids will realize you tried, you did your
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: damn best, you know, especially when they're going through it,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: and someday I'll be able to sit back and say, yep,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: told you, I told you all this would happen. And
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I'm okay with that having to be a long time
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: from now. But let's talk I don't know music. Let's
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: talk music a little bit because back in my day,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: songs had intros. And I was just recently talking with
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: a fellow coach, and you know, a couple of his
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: favorite one of his, if not his favorite song, but
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: ted Nugit came on the other day at our basketball game,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: and he was just like, this is this is probably
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: my favorite song, and it's so much different than anything
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: that is being put out today. And do I consume
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: a lot of I consumed much more music when I
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: was growing up. The parents always had music on. You
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: listen to the radio, you listen to baseball games on
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: the radio. It was a lot of listening. And now
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: it's just, you know, maybe you hear a song in
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: the background of a TikTok video or a reel, or
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: you know, a short in the radio just isn't for me.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: And I know I sound super old, but I've tried
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: a lot of stuff. Even even trying to listen to,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: you know, radio stations that are oldies or the hits
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: and it's playing stuff from my time makes me feel
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: a little bit extra. But the songs they had intros,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: they had bridges, they meaning you kind of knew what
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: was coming. And it feels like almost like now, songs
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: just kind of start, you know what I mean. Everyone
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: sounds like they recorded it lying down. They're not really singing.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: They're kind of confessing. Every every song feels like I
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: shouldn't have texted you were but here we are I
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: don't know, something like that, texting I shouldn't have done this.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: I don't They all kind of come off with that
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: same kind of vibe. I'm sure there's certain bands and
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: there's certain things that you know, when you know we
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: were growing up that were somewhat similar, but there was
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: still a little bit more of a variety, right, you know,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: rap was different, hip hop, East Coast, West Coast, you
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: had punk rock, classic rock, rock and roll. Yeah, you
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: just had a lot of different things that were being
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: pumped out. And when I were making the music, they
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: didn't whisper their feelings. You yelled them with a guitar soul. Right,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: And in the world of AI, I mean, it's pretty
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: it's pretty amazing that you can come up with some
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: absolute amazing songs with a click of a button in minutes,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: where it would take bands months years to come up
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: with an album, and you could probably come up with
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: a decent album in five minutes. Now, what a time
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: to be alive, right, I don't know, I feel like
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: I'm coming off like I'm mad. I'm not mad. I'm
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: not disappointed, but I do want to talk about kids meals.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I being a basketball coach on the road a lot
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: having a younger kid, Like there's a lot of kids
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: meals on the road. And it got me thinking, like
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: back in my day, when you went to a crap Donald's,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: you went to a you know, a king of you know,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: the Burghers, and you went to these places and you
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: got yourself a kid's meal. It seemed like it was
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: a kid's meal, you know what I mean. It felt
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: like the toys, even the quality and the toys like
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: that they could survive a war, that they could survive generations,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: that they could survive decades. I feel like if you
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: still pulled out McDonald's toys from when I was a kid,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: they're probably still functional, they're probably still looking good. They
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: were kind of built to last. Now it's just yeah,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: I see some of the stuff and I know it's
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: still relevant, Like it was, you know, whether it was
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: a Ninja turtle or whether it was you know, a
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: ghostbuster whatever, you know they they threw in there, maybe
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: you know, the mc burglar and stuff like that, Like
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: it's still relevant. You know, whether it's Minecraft or Fortnight
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: or you know, the the latest movie, the Latest Round.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: They do a good job in that, but it's like
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: the portions. They just seem I don't know. Maybe it's
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: because I'm much bigger now and a kid's meal couldn't
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: and may it's probably a good thing they offer the
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: apple slices. They do offer, you know, alternative options, but
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: the wife through there. Back in my day, it was
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: like checking now gets some fries and a milk or
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: is it a burger fries and milk. It didn't have
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: eight thousand choices, you know what I mean. And it
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: seems like, seems like a lot of these kids meals
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: aren't really a meal. It's almost as if they're like
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: a meeting. Yeah, you know, it's something that you would
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: get at a work meeting. Maybe I'm way off on
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: this one, but either way, I said what I said.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: The kids meals where much better when I was a
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: kid than they are now. Tell me if I'm wrong,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: I'd love to hear that. And let's talk about homemade,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: because back in my day, homemade meant someone was tired. Right.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: If your food comes out in six minutes, it probably
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: wasn't made there, right. And I don't care how rustic
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: the menu font is. Let's be honest, it's not homemade, right,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: you know? And this is coming from me who grew
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: up in a house. Dad was traveling a lot for work.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Ma was tasked to, you know, kind of raise us
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: and do the meals and stuff, and her versions of
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: homemade is definitely not homemade. I could probably honestly tell
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: you that I didn't have a salad until I was
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: almost twenty. I didn't have real mash potatoes that actually
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: came from a potato. Probably in my ties. It was
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: instant mashed potatoes. It was you know, Kraft mac and cheese.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: It was chicken nuggets, it was Domino's Peace. So you know,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: we went out to a ground round, got ourselves, you know,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: an ice cream and you know, one of these cool helmets.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Like that was like that was everything that was. That
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: was high class. That was a big night. That was
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: a busy night. And man, it's a it's crazy to
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: think about and you know, try and kind of do
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: those memories with the kids now, Like it's it's harder
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: and harder to find the time almost to sit down
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: at a nice restaurant, a nice local restaurant. Where I live,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: there's not a lot of chains, not a lot of
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: chain restaurants, and you know, fast food, fast food, fast food.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: It's convenient. I get it. But man, and I guess,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: you know, would that being said, kind of got a
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: little addicted to be dubs a little bit later as
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: a late you know, there was one that kind of
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: opened up somewhat recently within an hour of me. And
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: now I'm loving getting there, getting on the trivia, you know,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: hitting up the app for the deals like I don't know,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: I'm out there to negotiating. I'm out there trying to
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: be the cool dad, save some money, create some memories.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I feel like the kids truly enjoy it with their
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: mazzarella cheese pulls, their bottomless app adventures, and we've created
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: some interesting memories just from sitting around at dinner table,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: putting the phones down, hanging out, having a conversation and
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: just being a family. And it's it's pretty cool when
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: you get those moments and you know, there was less
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: distraction then, but there still was a little bit. You know,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: they were shoving, well shoving so pretty aggressive word they were.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: They were giving us the you know, uh krans in coloring,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: which kind of lost art. Now I still like that.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: I feel like restaurants should still bring that back. Give
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: a kid a kran. That's our new campaign. Give a
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: kid a kran. All right, put the technology down and
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: give a kit a kran. Bust out the coloring sheets.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I mean they cost pennies to print off a coloring sheet,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: box of Crans dirt cheap the kid, it's color right.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Let the adults color. I mean I grew up color,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna lie to you. I might still
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: do that. Play a little tic tac toe. You want
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: to give me a word search, I'll crush that. Help
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: make it for adults as well. Right sitting out a restaurant,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: let me put my phone down, let me do a
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: word search. Let us play some tic tac toe. Let
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: me color something fun, right, be Dubbs. Let me color
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: one of the Kelsey's. Let me cover color a big
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: old buffalo. I don't care what it is. I truly
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: think it. I think that's a great marketing campaign. Whoever
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: decides to steal that idea, I want three percent and
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: just credit, Just give me some credit. That's fair. Right, Yeah,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: I said what I said. And let's talk a little
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: bit about school fundraisers. There's a lot going on right now.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: And as a guy that also is you know, running
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: a softball organization. We do need donations, we do need help,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: we do need to raise funds. But like back in
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: my day, fundraisers were bake sales. And how awesome was
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: it when you forgot to tell your mom that the
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: bake sale was tomorrow and then they got to scramble
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: to make something again coming from a home or homemade things.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Weren't there that just truly men open up the cupboard
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: or have to run to the store and grab a
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: box of pre made cookies or you know the ones
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: that you could just the tubes of cookie dough and
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: you could just scoop them on a cookie sheet. Let
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: them come in there. Maybe get a little fancy bust
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: out a little eight by eight tray of brownies. I mean,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: let's bring those back. But there's so many regulations, especially
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: in the state that I live in, you know, where
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: the bake sales are slowly dying, the chili cookoffs are
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: slowly dying, and you know a lot of the stuff
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: that we did and now with like d med laws
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: and everything else like that, just to have a fundraiser,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: you have to get certain permissions from people in schools,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: which not saying that's a bad thing. It's just the
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: way that things are, you know these days. And you know,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: if you know, if a kid needs an app to
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: raise some money, they got to be protected. A lot
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: of the schools CoA as they call it in the biz,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: and have to do it these days, definitely have to
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: do it. And yeah, and it was kind of you know,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: the fundraiser mentality was kind of like, hey, sell this
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: to your family and compete against your friends and win
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: yourself a pencil for you know, raising the school hundreds
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: of dollars. It almost wasn't even teamwork. It was kind
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: of like capitalism with glitter. Yeah, I said what I said,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Let's talk a little bit about things no one warns
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: you about as a dad, because there's certain parts, there're
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: certain things that nobody truly does tell you before you
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: become a dad. Sonny, anybody that's going to be a dad,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: anybody you know that is and they know a buddy
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: or maybe you know their their own son is going
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: to be a dad. There's some things that they don't
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: tell you. And one of them is your phone. Your
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: phone becomes ninety two percent of pictures of your kids.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: You're always fighting, the storage is full, whether it's you know,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: those crappy iPhones, or if it's a solid, more stable,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: much better Android phone, and it's just it's a constant battle.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: It almost seems like it doesn't matter how much you
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: pay for a plan or how much storage that you
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: continually pay for. You're filling those things up with your kids.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: You know, sometimes they're blurry. There's probably a lot of duplicates.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: Emotionally though, these are irreplaceable, and you know, you probably think,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: and you'll probably say, I should probably just delete some
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: you don't. I don't. But the good thing for me
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: is I'm a Google guys. So they back up to
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Google Photos, and I'll pay an aggressive amount of money
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: for terabytes of Google stores, so they're there. But back
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: in my day, we did something with the photos because
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: you had to do something with the photos. You know,
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: you got a disposable camera, you got a camera with
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: an SD card, you took the pictures, you developed them,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: you did something. Now they just sit on your phone,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: maybe they sit on your computer. You look at them
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: every once in a while. But I feel like most
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: people all they do now is they look through their
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: Snapchat memories and say, oh, that was a good day.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: Oh I'm super sad because I just went through a
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: whole gallery of photos I took when my kid was,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: you know, ten years younger, and I've been down those traps.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I'm innocent, and
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: it's pretty sad some days, but it's just it's wild
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: to think that the photo biz is all bit dead.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you a single person that has recently
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: showed me other than the ones in my house. We
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: still try to keep them magic alive. That mainly, I
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: try to keep them magic alive because I spent a
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: lot of my youth years working in developing photos in
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: the photo department, so it's got a soft place in
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: my heart. But yeah, not a lot of people, especially
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: not a lot of kids. There was a time where
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: the polaroid recently made another little resurgence, so you could
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: get the polaroid cameras take a picture hanging up there.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: But I feel like that phases is coming gone, just
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: like six seven. Let me know if if you or
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: someone you know still rocks some photos, because that's that's
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: pretty cool. What else pretty cool? Snacks? Because back in
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: my day, if you brought snacks, they were yours now
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: they are almost like their community property, and somehow their
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: snacks are always gone. You don't get mad. You just
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: stare at an empty box like something ended, right. I mean,
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: we recently just bought a big old box of flavor
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: blasted goldfish. They're so good, but it just they're one
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: of those snacks that every time you walk by you
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: got to take a handful. Did you know that a
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: serving size is like one hundred and twenty to one
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: hundred and forty calories for fifty one goldfish? And I
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: bet you that I could throw fifty one on the air,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: one at a time, land him in there, and I
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: could go on a fifty one goldfish streak. Maybe I'll
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: try to throw up and eat one hundred and forty
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: galleries and goldfish on the next show, just to prove
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: to you that I have a weird hidden talent that
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: is absolutely useless. But another good snack we've been throwing
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: around the house that I was always under the impression
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: was like a super healthy snack, but it's a it's
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: a wheat thin. We got the family sized box, the
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: oldest you know, brings wheat things and cheese and lots
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: of fruit and you know, pretty much a chicutere board,
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: chacutery board. How you say it, chucutery, chicgoutery. I don't
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: really know how to say it, but pretty much brings
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: that on lunch every day. And that's tough to be
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: mad at because it's could be a lot worse. Pretty
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: jealous because I come home and eat a peanut butter
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: and jelly with honey, peanut butter and wheat bread because
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: I'm a healthy boy. I feel better eating that for
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: lunch and then crushing a bowl of ice cream little
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: too like a night. But anyways, have you ever just
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: kind of had that moment of why do I apologize
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: to objects? Like? Have you ever apologized, you know, to furniture?
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Like you bump a table and go ah, sorry er,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: you drop something and be like oops, my bad. It's
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: not politeness. It seems like exhaustion. It seems like it's
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: a weird thing. Why do we do that? I mean,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I've done it, You've done it. Don't look at me
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: and tell me I haven't done it. What the heck
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: do we do that? I don't know. We're weird. I'm weird.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Stay weird. Yeah I said what I said speaking of couches.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: I feel like I want to I want to review
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: a couple of things. I'm feeling very reviewing again. I
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: have no call host, I got nobody else to talk to,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: so I've rambled on quite a bit. But I'm gonna
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: review a couple of things that don't even need reviews,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Like the couch all right, because back in my day,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: couches were actually pretty uncomfortable on purpose. Now they trap
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: you in. You sit down there and you feel like
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: you're sitting on well a cloud because well I don't
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: know why they say that anyway, but they're super comfortable.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: You get in there, you can take a nap. So
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: we decided to buy a cheap one off Amazon, have
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: it shipped for free, and it's really super uncomfortable. Nobody
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: sits on the thing but the cats, and it's all covered. Heck,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: I don't even know why we have it. But couches,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, emotional support pretty high seven point seven, Betrayal
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: level medium five point two. Would I trust a couch
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: and a crisis? Of course I would, wouldn't you. Let's
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: talk about a fridge, not just a fridge, but a
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: fridge and nighttime, because the fridge it's not for food,
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: it's for hope. Nothing changes, but you still check how
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: many times have you opened a fridge? Naps a little
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: bit hungry, knowing you s shouldn't eat, but you're like, nah,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: close it. Look at a cupboard, back to the fridge,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: back to the cupboard, over to the pantry, back to
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: the fridge, back to the cupboard, and finally you come
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: to the colusion that there's just nothing to eat. I mean,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: I can't be the only that's It's not weird, it's
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: not crazy. It's fatherhood, right, all right, let's review the
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: I don't even know if it's a review at this point.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about the one fork. Every house has the
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: one fork and if someone else is using it. Ye. Notice,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: I don't personally think it's pettiness. I think it's principal
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: for me. I got a golden fork. The wife, she's
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: got a certain fork that's a certain weight. Kids, they're
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: starting to lean to it a little bit. The oldest
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: went through a sporks stage. I'm not exactly sure why,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: but it was a stage. And let's be honest, for
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: a memo stage to spork stage, I'll buy some damn
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: sporks instead of all the black clothing. But we're past that.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Let's not live into the past. And yeah, food eating
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: standing up tastes better because there's no commitment. It's not eating,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: it's almost survival. Tell me I'm wrong, all right. Also
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: tell me I'm wrong. The thermosttt the thermostat is sacred,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: not because of comfort, but out of respect. When you
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: set the thermost at, thermostat stays when you leave, you
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: turn it down. It's simple. Now, if only everyone in
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: the house could disagree with that. Now, there's a lot
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: of people in myles that take naps. I personally think
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: naps are fake until you accidentally get one and you
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: wake up angry and confused. I was gonna try to
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: sneak when in the day, realized I had way too
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: much to do. So we just try to get the
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: bed a little earlier. But then as soon as you
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: hit the pillow, you're wide awake, and then you don't
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: get the sleep. You think about the basketball game, You
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: think about work, You think about did I shut this up?
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Did I do this? Is the hot tub turned down?
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, it's not just me. Back of my day,
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: things didn't need apps. I mentioned I love them at dinner.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: But they're kind of out of control, right, I mean,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: the toaster doesn't need WiFi, the light bulb doesn't need updates.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: What happens is just being able to turn things on
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: without agreeing to terms and conditions. Right. That being said,
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: I do have some lights behind me that I control
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: on an app. So maybe I shouldn't talk more. You
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: know what, I'm not gonna talk more because back of
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: my day, things weren't perfect, but they seemed to make sense.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: And if none of this made sense to you, congrats,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: you're dire too, And seriously thank you for taking some
• 27:45
