• 2:07
  Speaker 1: in Michigan. I woke up. I was very excited. I
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: had packed, I'd pre packed. I was very fired up
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: because it was Ben's baby day, so I was excited

• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I woke up, I'm all fired up. I shower, I'm
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: out the door quietly by the way, because I have
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: two young boys who I don't want to wait because
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: that would make mommy not happy. And I'm out the door.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: I'm on my way to the airport. I get there
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: a little bit early. I have a nice breakfast sandwich.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Things are just going beautifully, and then as I board
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: the plane, they tell us there might be a maintenance
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: issue with some air supply, not the band, but the
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: actual circulation of air within the plane. Three and a
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: half hours later, we're getting off the plane. I'm texting
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: everyone that matters here at our iHeart family, saying I
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: think I'm in trouble. I don't know what's going to happen.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: There was one plane that went out again at twelve thirty,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: and this is again, this is eight twenty five that
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: I board the plane, but I couldn't try to get
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: on that plane until I was already kicked off. The
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: other plane was kind of a long story. Anyway, we're
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: here for him, I run across the airport from Gate
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: A sixteen to Kate A seventy two, sprinting like Carl Jones, Wait,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: wasn't it Carl Lewis Carl Lewis across the airport and
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: as I arrive, I get on the plane with there
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: was twenty two people on standby. There were two seats available.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I got one of them. So I made it. And
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: maybe I would have made it without that. I would
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: have walked. I would have briskly walked. I would not
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: have made it without it. But I was trying, and
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I was like, I was like throwing out recommendations like hey,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I might be able to podcast from my you know,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: closet at my house, and Amy Sugarman is like, absolutely no.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: This is all about top quality sonic experiences. So I
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: just had to make sure we got it done, and
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: therefore I charted the plane.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: I appreciate it, buddy, you literally charted a plane. You
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: have a wild experience on your flight, then with some people,
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: a new YU you even recognized a few times on
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: this flight.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Well yeah, so I don't care what side of the
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: political eil you're on. I think she happens to be
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: a great governor. The great governor of Michigan, Miss Gretchen Whitmer,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: was on my flight. But what a lot of people
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: don't know was she was my buddy in college, so
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: she had many years. She was in first class. I
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: was relegated to steerage and on this flight, I was
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: in middle seat, by the way, And on this flight,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: she glances over her shoulder and she's like, Bob. I'm like, hey, crotch,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: give her a big hug. And I go, I'm so
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: proud of everything you've done. And she goes, I'm just
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: a governor, You're a big time which I thought was
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: really funny. We took a picture. I sent it to
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: my wife. My wife now thinks I should run her government.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Then the guy I'm sitting next to on the plane crazy.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at this guy. I'm like, God, this guy
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: looks familiar to me. I've never met him before. His
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: dad was my mentor in high school, who was the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: quarterback before I was in high school. He went on
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: a play. He walked out at Michigan got a scholarship.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: I want to I walked out on Michigan State, got
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: a scholarship. His dad and I like these two quarterbacks.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Came out of Riverview, who you know, small school in Michigan,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: kept making the state semifinals, never made the finals. The
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: guy was like, my one of my heroes. His dad
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: and he's like, oh my god, my dad was just
• 5:35

  Speaker 4: You had to leave Jess for your baby shower.

  Speaker 3: you saw the list, you said, I cannot wait to
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: have a conversation with them.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Well, I'll say this. You know, one of the things
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: that we're gonna do tonight is, if you don't mind,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask everyone tonight for a little bit of
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: parenting and books because the majority of the majority of
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: the folks we're gonna interview tonight have them. I think
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I think the Golden Ladies I love them very much anyway,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Like I really enjoy them, and I think that the
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: three of them together are just magic. I think Joan
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: in shock. I'm very excited to meet them, very excited
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: to talk with them. I'm a fan of his. I'm
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: a big fan of Jones, but watching the season, I've
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: become a fan of his and I'm excited to see
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: their dynamic. But I'm also excited to hear the advice.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: You know, Like I think, I think we all think
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: we know what we're doing, but there's no handbook when
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: you have a kid, right, there's like, you know.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: The best advice may have ever been given. It's just like, hey,
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: we're all building the plane and flying at the same time.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: And guess what, nobody's wrong.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Like, at the end of the day, your way is
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: going to be your way and you're you're in Jessice.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Way is going to be what you guys choose, and
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: it's going to be your own choice. We've all been
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: raised by parents that we think did a great job
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: or some that didn't do a great job. But I'm
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: not gonna do the same way my parents did it either.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna have my own little twist and I hope
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: that you know that helps my kids. And I'm sure
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: you guys are going to do the same thing and
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: make the same choices. So I'm excited for you guys,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: and excited to see how the whole thing unfolds. I
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: love you both as a couple. I think that having
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: a child is going to be I mean, it's just
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: a perfect fit for you. Dude. You're born to be
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: a dad. I feel like you're kind of my dad
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: in certain ways that I mean, you're like thirty seven
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: years younger than me, but you also give me parenting
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: advice all the time, which I love. I'll be like, Ben,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: what do you think I should do? And you're like, well, buddy,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: why don't you just buck up? And you know, you
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: pull your bootstraps up. I'm like, thanks, Bud, you stop
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: crying either. The best dad man, and and I think
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: that you're going to be such a great dad. And
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I think that the two of you together are going
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: to be so magical. You're gonna have moments though, and
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: it's like that that happens. Your parents had him, your
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: parents parents had him, and everyone has them. Just you know,

• 19:03
  Speaker 4: shower that you're feeling about becoming a dad, I mean tech.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: You're a dad now, yeahnam My wise words are this,
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: be present, be patient, give everything around you a ton
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: of grace and understanding.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: And with a baby.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: Girl, the best advice I've been given is to represent
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: what a man means to her, and let your wife
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: represent what a woman means to her and carry those
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: roles very specifically, but also with a ton of love.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: And that's my hope, that's my desire. And then I'll
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: take any other advice I can get because I'm walking
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: into this thing and I'm winging it like most podcasts.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: A man, I think you're doing great. I think kindness
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: is key. I think about that all the time with
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: my kids, Like, whenever I get super irritated with whatever,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I'm like, man, if I can be kind here, then
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: when they when they have the same situation at school
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: or with their friends, maybe they'll emulate me a little
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: bit and they'll be kind. And so I as much
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: as I want to go bananas, I'll be like, oh,
• 20:12
