3:31
Speaker 6: be in a movie that's being seen all over the
3:34
Speaker 6: world and it's going to be an amazing movie.
3:36
Speaker 3: And so so this is your first obviously your first,
3:39
Speaker 3: your first.
3:40
Speaker 4: The first big role.
3:41
Speaker 6: You know. I've done other things like Survivors and Morris
3:43
Speaker 6: Scott's Not Dead things that, but usually I'm the anchor.
3:46
Speaker 4: Or, the reporter.
3:47
Speaker 6: You turn it on and you turn it off, and
3:48
Speaker 6: you know, I'm on quick for five minutes. But now
3:51
Speaker 6: this is my biggest role yet, being in the entire
3:53
Speaker 6: movie and getting out of the news room.
3:55
Speaker 4: Where I'm not just there. I go to the hospital,
3:57
Speaker 4: I'm at the grave side, I'm at the house.
3:59
Speaker 6: So it's nice to expand my reach as an actor
4:01
Speaker 6: and do different scenes and where is.
4:03
Speaker 1: It taking place with like part of the Atlanta.
4:05
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah where his studio. His studio is
4:08
Speaker 6: amazing Atlanta. Everything you need is there at his.
4:11
Speaker 1: Line is in Georgia.
4:12
Speaker 4: Oh that's true.
4:13
Speaker 3: So Walking Dead in Georgia. So that's like, well the
4:15
Speaker 3: biggest show in history basically, and that's was that that
4:19
Speaker 3: was all films exactly.
4:21
Speaker 6: So it's a lot happened, and he's really revived Atlanta
4:23
Speaker 6: and brought so much love and support back to Atlanta
4:26
Speaker 6: because of his studio that's there. And it's pretty amazing
4:28
Speaker 6: to see what he built, you know, from a guy
4:30
Speaker 6: who was once living in his car to now this massive,
4:34
Speaker 6: three hundreds whatever acre studio lot.
4:37
Speaker 4: It's just so impressive.
4:39
Speaker 3: Wow, that's amazing. And so you're doing this and you
4:42
Speaker 3: do a podcast. What what tell me about on your podcast?
4:45
Speaker 4: You know, part of my life it's all about fatherhood.
4:47
Speaker 6: So I have three kids, Madison, Mackenzie and Carter and
4:50
Speaker 6: now fourteen, eleven and nine, and so yeah, two girls
4:54
Speaker 6: and last one's a boy.
4:55
Speaker 4: So we the last one.
4:57
Speaker 6: Yeah, my wife's like all right, you're done, shops close,
5:00
Speaker 6: you got your boy. But so we do a lot
5:02
Speaker 6: of fun family and fatherhood content on social media. So
5:05
Speaker 6: we go viral all the time, but doing little skits
5:07
Speaker 6: and funny things with the kids. And because of that,
5:10
Speaker 6: I wanted to expand my reach and do more things,
5:12
Speaker 6: and so I created the podcast Daddy Duty three sixty five,
5:15
Speaker 6: where we talk to celebrity dads about the good, the bad,
5:18
Speaker 6: and the funny of fatherhood. And we have so much
5:20
Speaker 6: fun because these celebrity dads never get to talk about
5:22
Speaker 6: these things. They just talk about the newest movie, the
5:24
Speaker 6: newest album or.
5:25
Speaker 3: Whatever, and then they're all about their daily life with
5:27
Speaker 3: their kids.
5:28
Speaker 4: Exactly for people they have other.
5:30
Speaker 1: Sizes of really have time to be around their kids.
5:32
Speaker 4: Let's be honest, a lot of.
5:33
Speaker 6: Them do, because you know, you work a movie and
5:35
Speaker 6: then you're done for six months and you're not doing anything.
5:38
Speaker 6: So like, literally some of them they still do the
5:40
Speaker 6: school runs and the carpools, and I'm like, you do carpool?
5:43
Speaker 4: I'm like, so what happens when you pull up? And
5:45
Speaker 4: they're like, people are just used to it in their
5:46
Speaker 4: towns and.
5:47
Speaker 1: So you know, they know they're there. Andy's still exactly.
5:50
Speaker 4: There's no big deal anymore.
5:51
Speaker 6: And so you know, with fatherhood, I just wanted to
5:52
Speaker 6: show that there are dads out there that are active
5:56
Speaker 6: fathers in their kids' lives doing what they're supposed to
5:58
Speaker 6: do three hundred sixty five days of the year.
6:01
Speaker 4: So that's what was the best.
6:01
Speaker 3: What was like the last one that was like the
6:03
Speaker 3: I don't know what the like.
6:04
Speaker 1: Give me. Some people have been on your shop.
6:06
Speaker 6: Okay, Boris Kojo, you know Boris Culture, him and his
6:09
Speaker 6: brother Pat were on, and you know, it's funny to
6:11
Speaker 6: them talking about how they grew up in Germany and
6:13
Speaker 6: then come here and how they act as fathers and
6:15
Speaker 6: how they're so involved and still trying to teach their
6:17
Speaker 6: kids German their kids like whatever, we don't.
6:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, exactly.
6:21
Speaker 6: Paul Wall, you know, he's a big time rapper that's
6:24
Speaker 6: been on. I have a lot of opportunities to interview
6:26
Speaker 6: people that people may not know either. And some of
6:29
Speaker 6: the athletes that may not be the biggest star on
6:32
Speaker 6: the court, but are stars in their own households. So
6:35
Speaker 6: it's just it's fun to see these people share a
6:37
Speaker 6: different side of them that you never thought that they
6:39
Speaker 6: would share. If some dads have come on and talked
6:41
Speaker 6: and have cried about losing a kid or you know,
6:45
Speaker 6: things that didn't go their way and their parent planning aspect,
6:49
Speaker 6: talking about nursing and how supportive they are that when
6:51
Speaker 6: they're you know, wives are nursing are different things that
6:54
Speaker 6: and then you have the fun step. I have a
6:55
Speaker 6: segment called I Love my kids, but it's I love
6:57
Speaker 6: my kids, but because there's always something. You love them,
7:01
Speaker 6: but they just get on your nerves when they do
7:03
Speaker 6: this one thing. So I like to pull that out
7:06
Speaker 6: of some of the talent because they don't expect that
7:08
Speaker 6: because everybody loves their kids, but there is that one
7:11
Speaker 6: like that's just so dirty or that you with their
7:13
Speaker 6: mouth ol, but are just nasty?
7:14
Speaker 1: What is your pet peeve?
7:17
Speaker 6: I love my kids, but they are just dirty for
7:20
Speaker 6: no reason, Like you see.
7:22
Speaker 1: The hamper are the worst in the boys.
7:24
Speaker 6: The girls are worst. Yeah, Like you see the hampers
7:27
Speaker 6: right here? Why why is everything on the floor next
7:29
Speaker 6: to the hamper?
7:30
Speaker 4: You just ate?
7:31
Speaker 6: Why when you get up do you not take your
7:34
Speaker 6: trash with your throw it away?
7:35
Speaker 4: You just leave it there? Like I mean, why do
7:36
Speaker 4: they have to drink it with them? Why?
7:39
Speaker 3: Why do you have to live a trail? Do you
7:41
Speaker 3: think I have the fight right? You leaving me your
7:43
Speaker 3: trail to go look for you?
7:44
Speaker 4: Like what is you understand my pain and most people will.
7:47
Speaker 6: Most people will fourteen, yeah, fourteen, eleven and nine.
7:52
Speaker 3: Three, twenty six and nineteen and they still do that.
7:55
Speaker 4: Ship.
7:56
Speaker 6: Wait, first way, how are you old enough to have
7:58
Speaker 6: a thirty three year old hours the ball?

Speaker 4: But how are you old enough? Year old? Amen? Do
8:07
Speaker 4: what you gotta do, what you gotta do.
8:08
Speaker 1: You know my Italian Sicilian skin. You know, we don't crack.
8:13
Speaker 4: I love that that's what happens.
8:15
Speaker 3: But like I don't know, it's yeah, my kids still
8:19
Speaker 3: do that.
8:19
Speaker 6: You understand my opinion. That's why I started a T
8:22
Speaker 6: shirt line so much. I do love them. It's just
8:24
Speaker 6: but but that's why I started T shirt line. Like
8:28

9:31
Speaker 6: says when your kids don't think you're cool, but their
9:33
Speaker 6: friends do. And it went viral because we were like

Speaker 4: So it's all parents and stuff. So I love it.
9:55
Speaker 4: You can totally relate.
9:56
Speaker 3: I mean, and even though my kids are grown, I
9:58
Speaker 3: mean almost growing gm society.
10:00
Speaker 1: The bigger the kid, the bigger the problem.
10:02
Speaker 3: And it's so true because as they get older, there's
10:05
Speaker 3: so many more things you have to help them throw.
10:07
Speaker 4: So did they ever get out of your pockets? Are
10:09

10:25
Speaker 3: paid for you over the last sight.
10:27
Speaker 4: Are you kidding?
10:28
Speaker 6: And the gas was probably to take her or him
10:30
Speaker 6: somewhere right now because she.
10:31
Speaker 1: Was mad because I took herd car BMW.
10:34
Speaker 4: That I bought her.
10:35
Speaker 3: That I bought her to the city because I can't

Speaker 3: go go put some gas in the right car. I
10:48
Speaker 3: just put gas in my car. I said, you know
10:50
Speaker 3: how many times I put gas in your car when
10:52
Speaker 3: I took it and filled.
10:53
Speaker 1: It up for you.
10:53
Speaker 4: How about you keep the lights on the table. I said, you're.
10:56
Speaker 3: Looking to have a car, how about you get a
10:57
Speaker 3: metro car because that's what you're going to get next.
10:59
Speaker 4: Thank you, And I'll have.
11:01
Speaker 1: To call parked in the drive which you have to walk.
11:03
Speaker 3: Past it everything and be like, wow, it's not a
11:05
Speaker 3: really nice car that you can't drive in the driveway.
11:07
Speaker 4: Thank you, Look, you're back.
11:11
Speaker 2: I have to do.
11:13
Speaker 1: You have to but gets it gets like that when
11:16
Speaker 1: they get older.
11:16
Speaker 3: But exactly, but when they when they get older, I
11:19
Speaker 3: have to do have to say they realize how much
11:22
Speaker 3: they appreciate what you've told them.
11:24
Speaker 6: That I can say, Okay, it does pay off at
11:27
Speaker 6: some point.
11:27
Speaker 1: It does. Hey, you know maybe they got something to
11:32
Speaker 1: what they're.
11:32
Speaker 6: Saying, yeah, or did they give somebody else credit for
11:35
Speaker 6: it and forgot that you're the one who told them
11:36
Speaker 6: in the first place. Because it's like every time someone
11:38
Speaker 6: else says it, then they believe it more.
11:41
Speaker 1: Like somebody saying they still do that. No, they still
11:45
Speaker 1: do that. That still happens sometimes, you know, it sucks.
11:48
Speaker 1: I want to punch you in the face. But you can't.
11:50
Speaker 6: You can't you know, well, you might go to jail,
11:52
Speaker 6: but you can.
11:54
Speaker 3: Now it's not child.
11:59
Speaker 6: Like.
11:59
Speaker 3: It's that child Now, I'm just gonna gick.
12:04
Speaker 4: Your We do not condone violence of any kind, we.
12:08
Speaker 1: Any cind but some kids, you know what I don't know.
12:11
Speaker 3: I don't know what is when I was a kid,
12:13
Speaker 3: not that my father would hit me all the time,
12:15
Speaker 3: but my hand like a really strict town a Sicilian
12:18
Speaker 3: father like I did not mess around.
12:22
Speaker 4: Ruler.
12:23
Speaker 3: He would just go like this and I would run
12:24
Speaker 3: and not with my mother. Oh my god, I would
12:27
Speaker 3: get hit. She would throw shoes at me. I would laugh,
12:29
Speaker 3: I'd run that poor.
12:30
Speaker 1: Woman what I did.
12:31
Speaker 3: But my dad never laid a hand on me because
12:33
Speaker 3: I was One time he did once he'd hit me
12:36
Speaker 3: with his belt because I set the backyard on fire.
12:38
Speaker 3: But I did that, okay, but I was that was
12:42
Speaker 3: the idea. Yeah I didn't do it on purpose, but
12:44
Speaker 3: I was a kid, fair enough.
12:46
Speaker 1: But you know who you could get away with things with.
12:49
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's what it is, you know.
12:51
Speaker 6: And that's why my kids asked me certain things that
12:53
Speaker 6: they don't ask my wife because like petrified your wife
12:56
Speaker 6: they'll know. I'm gonna probably say yes, of course.
13:00
Speaker 3: Because that's what happens with dad's. Dads want to be
13:03
Speaker 3: the bud. But then the why you know, wife, you know,
13:06
Speaker 3: we get stuck with me in the discipline.
13:08
Speaker 6: This discipline a lot also, I'm very especially when it's
13:11
