2:37
Speaker 2: to Will and Taylor and barraging. We have Garrett here too,
2:42
Speaker 2: that's helping us with the cameras. Was in Garrett's DMS,
2:45
Speaker 2: everybody's dms. Just busting. Please hire me. I've been in
2:50
Speaker 2: like film production for quite a while and then commercial
2:53

2:58
Speaker 2: get into that.
2:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have a bad ass of mine, and you
3:00
Speaker 1: crush it with busting with the boys. You're going to
3:02
Speaker 1: crush off for the dads. I feel like you your
3:06
Speaker 1: positive energy that I feel like people have gotten glimpses of.
3:09
Speaker 1: I'm very excited for you to kind of co host
3:12
Speaker 1: this show with me.
3:13
Speaker 2: I'm excited to I just to talk nerves as well.
3:17
Speaker 1: Logan nerves, both guys, nervous.
3:20
Speaker 2: Both nervous. Logan, who's a third party guy, that helps
3:24
Speaker 2: a time with Busting with the Boys. He kept on
3:26
Speaker 2: popping his head in before we hit the record button.
3:28
Speaker 2: It was like, hey, last bit of uh, you know,
3:31
Speaker 2: just some advice before y'all start rolling. And he asked
3:34
Speaker 2: you if you were more nervous, like first time with
3:37
Speaker 2: Busting with the Boys or first time with this, and
3:39
Speaker 2: you said you were more nervous for Busting with the Boys.
3:43
Speaker 1: Yeah. I feel like before the show, I was more
3:45
Speaker 1: nervous for Busting with the Boys because that was it
3:48
Speaker 1: was a very brand new project. It was the first
3:50
Speaker 1: thing I've ever stepped out and done anything else in
3:52
Speaker 1: other than football. But now that I'm sitting here talking
3:55
Speaker 1: on this show for the first time, I'm thinking the
3:57
Speaker 1: nerves might be a little bit higher for the dads.
3:59
Speaker 1: Oh really yeah, yeah, yeah, just because again, bro, like
4:01
Speaker 1: we're we're very excited about standing up the show talking
4:05
Speaker 1: dad life, and we will get into that. I know
4:07
Speaker 1: we're kind of rambling along right now. Yeah, but yeah,
4:10
Speaker 1: it's just it's sick. It's it's cool that we have
4:13
Speaker 1: you know, we started with the vision, We've had a
4:15
Speaker 1: shit ton of help, like shout out the Boy, Garrett,
4:18
Speaker 1: shout out Logan, shout out, Yeah, shout out the whole
4:21
Speaker 1: team behind the scenes, like standing this brand up, we
4:23
Speaker 1: have merchandise. It's really cool and I feel like I
4:28
Speaker 1: feel like there's a space for more like dad conversations.
4:31
Speaker 1: I always enjoy, you know, listening to dad podcasts. I
4:34
Speaker 1: enjoy consuming content and we can get into like why
4:37
Speaker 1: does this podcast exist? And essentially for me, it's spoiler alert.
4:42
Speaker 1: I'm really into fatherhood. I love it. I hate it
4:45
Speaker 1: at times. I think there's a lot of suck that
4:48
Speaker 1: goes into it because there's a lot of intention you
4:50
Speaker 1: have to put into it, and that is difficult to
4:52
Speaker 1: do when you are trying to balance you know, running
4:55
Speaker 1: the business of bus with the boys, like work life balance,
4:58
Speaker 1: you know, thinking about your marriage and not losing yourself
5:00
Speaker 1: so much in your marriage because you're so focused on
5:02
Speaker 1: the kids. Also trying to focus on communicating with the kids.
5:05
Speaker 1: Like I grew up in a household to where it
5:07
Speaker 1: was three boys and my mom was very you know,
5:11
Speaker 1: strong willed and tough, and I grew up around a
5:14
Speaker 1: lot around a lot of boy energy, football kid growing
5:17
Speaker 1: up all the sports, all the things. And when you
5:19
Speaker 1: have your wife who is a you know, a former cheerleader.
5:22
Speaker 1: She now operates the Bar three. She owns the Bar
5:24
Speaker 1: three studios here in Nashville. Shout out, Shout out my dog,
5:28
Speaker 1: my beautiful dog, Waffle, our English bulldog female two little girls.
5:33
Speaker 3: Rue.
5:34
Speaker 1: She is absolutely obsessed with princesses right now. And you
5:36
Speaker 1: also thinking about outside of the work life balance, communicating
5:39
Speaker 1: and being involved, being intentional with your marriage. You're also
5:42
Speaker 1: thinking about how you communicate with two little girls where
5:45
Speaker 1: you have like no experience to do. So. I find
5:48
Speaker 1: myself gravitating a lot towards I've always been a podcast guy,
5:51
Speaker 1: but listen to podcast conversations, diving into books, whether it's
5:55
Speaker 1: for sleep training, whether it's the Daily Dad, I find
5:59
Speaker 1: myself just gravitating towards a lot of dad content. And
6:02
Speaker 1: I feel like when I hear dads or people speak
6:05
Speaker 1: on parenthood, whether it's mom's, dad's, anybody, I find myself,
6:11
Speaker 1: you know, able to kind of grab a lot of
6:13
Speaker 1: perspective for my own situations, to where you're sitting in
6:16
Speaker 1: the truck and you're like, yes, you go through that
6:19
Speaker 1: shit too, and you got you go home and you
6:21
Speaker 1: kind of tell your wife, Hey, you know, buddy over
6:23
Speaker 1: here he was doing this or Hey, this couple did this,
6:25
Speaker 1: or here's a little wrinkle that we could be dealing
6:26
Speaker 1: with rue you know, my whole Instagram algorithm. I feel
6:29
Speaker 1: like it's all parenthood. And I've always been being in
6:32
Speaker 1: the content, being in the media space. It's you want
6:35
Speaker 1: to create things that you're a consumer of, and I'm
6:37
Speaker 1: a massive consumer of parenthood. I'm a massive consumer of fatherhood.
6:41
Speaker 1: And I feel like that's why I had a big
6:44
Speaker 1: itch and I felt a big pool to stand up
6:46
Speaker 1: a show like this.
6:48
Speaker 2: You too echo going off what you're saying with my
6:53
Speaker 2: tweet that I put out when we did like launch
6:55
Speaker 2: the trailer, I type that tweet out five hundred times
6:59
Speaker 2: because I was trying to evoke like how passionate you
7:02
Speaker 2: are about this subject, And every single time I wrote
7:05
Speaker 2: it down, I was like, God, I can't put it
7:07
Speaker 2: into words. But when I first started at Busting and
7:11
Speaker 2: you would ask me to like connect and go to
7:13
Speaker 2: coffee with you, it would initially it was about like
7:17
Speaker 2: busting and how's moving you know, across the nation, blah
7:20
Speaker 2: blah blah, but our conversation would always land on, hey,
7:24
Speaker 2: are you and Jill thinking about kids? And we would
7:27
Speaker 2: just like you be.
7:28
Speaker 1: Hey, you really when you were posting these photos of Ru,
7:30
Speaker 1: You're really getting You're really getting Jilly being in the
7:33
Speaker 1: fever right now. I go, I'm gonna have to get
7:34
Speaker 1: you to slow down. Bro.
7:36
Speaker 2: Rue is way too cute and Jill is like truly
7:39
Speaker 2: was struck with baby fever from Rue.
7:42
Speaker 1: And that was a.
7:43
Speaker 2: Massive problem that I was facing and in myself being
7:46
Speaker 2: like I feel like I'm inadequate. I don't feel like
7:49
Speaker 2: I'm there. Financially, I don't feel like I'm there. Maybe
7:53
Speaker 2: like maturity wise, am I ready to be a dad?
7:56
Speaker 2: Like I'm gonna have to be my life is over
7:59
Speaker 2: and that's all about this other thing, yeah, this other
8:02
Speaker 2: human But seeing the way that you and Taylor balance
8:05
Speaker 2: work and family, I was like, I can't have a career.
8:10
Speaker 2: I can have friends. I could be passionate about my
8:12
Speaker 2: career but also be a great dad. And that's what
8:16
Speaker 2: made me really want to pick your brain in those
8:17
Speaker 2: coffees of like, hey, like how is it? Blah blah blah.
8:21
Speaker 2: But the way that you lock in when you talk
8:23
Speaker 2: about being a dad, it's like you're breaking down being
8:27
Speaker 2: in the a gap like you get you really do,
8:30
Speaker 2: like you break it down like it's film. When you
8:33
Speaker 2: come back from like a great conversation with Charro or
8:36
Speaker 2: some life lesson that you learn with ru hearing you
8:38
Speaker 2: talk about it with just people in the office. That's
8:41
Speaker 2: what made me believe in the show. I was like, dude,
8:43
Speaker 2: he does this every day already, because I.
8:45
Speaker 1: Realized who It's like, we're all going to fuck it
8:48
Speaker 1: up often. Oh, be easy with the coaster. We're all
8:51
Speaker 1: going to fuck it up often, and nobody has it
8:54
Speaker 1: figured out, and there's no perfect formula. And there's times
8:56
Speaker 1: where you're like in the whole parenthood conversations and you
8:59
Speaker 1: feel like there's like a perfect way you have to
9:03
Speaker 1: come off like you're doing it right or maybe you know,
9:05
Speaker 1: I know people deal with you know, how much screen
9:08
Speaker 1: time should they have? When you get your kids down
9:09
Speaker 1: to sleep, Like you know, you might feel like your
9:12
Speaker 1: child is sleeping well, and you might know a friend
9:14
Speaker 1: that has a child the same exact age and they're
9:17
Speaker 1: not getting a lot of sleep at night, and you
9:19
Speaker 1: just you feel like, whether it's guilt or show, you
9:21
Speaker 1: just there's so many emotions and you just realize we're
9:23
Speaker 1: all trying to figure it out. I feel like that's
9:26
Speaker 1: that's what the show is, sharing experience together, fucking it
9:29
Speaker 1: up together, figuring it out together, and just showing up
9:32
Speaker 1: the next day. Because that is that is like parenthood
9:36
Speaker 1: in a nutshell. Yeah, because there's gonna be there's just
9:38
Speaker 1: gonna be all that chaos. There's a lot of fun,
9:40
Speaker 1: there's a lot of chaos. So I can get into
9:42
Speaker 1: a whole entire Rosemary trip last week because it was
9:46
Speaker 1: you know, you got a three year old, Now you
9:47
Speaker 1: have a six month old. You're pack in the car,
9:49
Speaker 1: you're doing all this stuff, you have an eight hour drive.
9:51
Speaker 1: Like it is chaos at times Broyeah for just little
9:55
Speaker 1: moments of when you're sitting on the beach and you're
9:58
Speaker 1: just like and you finally have a calm moment and
9:59
Speaker 1: you're like, this is why you do it. And then
10:02
Speaker 1: you just that night when you're trying to put them
10:04
Speaker 1: to bed, You're trying to do bedtime, you're trying to
10:06
Speaker 1: feed him, you're trying to do all the things. Can
10:07
Speaker 1: I watch can I watch little bear? Can I do this? Hey?
10:09
Speaker 1: We got to go to bed. And then it's chaos
10:11
Speaker 1: again until the next day, until you get to that
10:12
Speaker 1: next moment wary you're like ah, this is this is
10:15
Speaker 1: it right here? This is the life?
10:17
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and we could segue into actually, so how
10:21
Speaker 2: the show will operate is will have an intro like this, yes,
10:25
Speaker 2: and then we have like four to five segments that
10:27
Speaker 2: will kind of cycle.
10:28
Speaker 1: Through each week.
10:29
Speaker 2: Yep, it'll never be permanent of like which ones, but
10:34
Speaker 2: we wanted to give you all like a little taste,
10:35

10:43
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, motherfucker. And just to again, what's a
10:48
Speaker 1: little what's a little? The catching thing at the bottom,
10:51
Speaker 1: the warning sign at the bottom. It's like, this is
10:53
Speaker 1: in no way shape or form a podcast for expert
10:57
Speaker 1: advice on parenting. There's your You're expecting father, You're about

11:03
Speaker 3: Yeah?
11:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was in a banner, You're about to be
11:05

11:07
Speaker 1: like I have a three year old and a six
11:08
Speaker 1: month old, Like, I don't know what it's like to
11:09

11:10
Speaker 1: like to have a teenager. I don't know what it's
11:12
Speaker 1: like to have an adult child. There's a lot that
11:15
Speaker 1: we still have to learn and figure out. But that's
11:17
Speaker 1: that's what this that's what this show is. Here is
11:19
Speaker 1: for us to kind of deliver our own experiences in
11:22
Speaker 1: a very unpolished way and also give a voice for
11:26
Speaker 1: the dads who carry their own mental load. We need
11:29
Speaker 1: it and we need it.
11:30
Speaker 2: In the comments, that was some of my favorite comments

11:34
Speaker 1: Boys, we need this.
11:36
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, the third party boys, we've needed this to

12:03
Speaker 1: And at the end of every episode we will close
12:05
Speaker 1: out with a quote, a mantra, or a lesson that
12:08
Speaker 1: we feel like we've enjoyed recently and every now and then.
12:11
Speaker 1: This isn't gonna be a show to where it's interview
12:13
Speaker 1: based and we're gonna bring on dads every week similar
12:16
Speaker 1: to what you guys recognize with busting with the boys,
12:18
Speaker 1: that'll happen at times when the time is right. Maybe
12:21
Speaker 1: it's bonus content, but we really want this to kind
12:24
Speaker 1: of build community with the dads out there, share our
12:27
Speaker 1: stories and engage with with with everybody online.
12:31
Speaker 2: And you're gonna kick off. Motherfucked dude.
12:33
Speaker 1: Motherfucked So Motherfucked is a segment where it's essentially your
12:37
Speaker 1: dad losses. Whether it's your wife giving you a stern
12:40
Speaker 1: talking to about something you might have done wrong or
12:43
Speaker 1: something you fell short for, or whether it's those moments
12:46
Speaker 1: to where the words that come out of her mouth
12:48
Speaker 1: is you always do X, And I just think in
12:52
Speaker 1: my mind, I don't always do that. I just fell
12:56
Speaker 1: short this one time. But look at the growth I've had.
12:59
Speaker 1: You know, I'll pull back years, I'll pull by you.
13:01
Speaker 1: Remember you remember when we had the townhouse. I was terrible. Yeah. Yeah.
13:05
Speaker 1: You get the report card out, you get the scoreboard,
13:07
Speaker 1: and when you get in the scoreboard, that's when it
13:08
Speaker 1: more so goes downhill. You realize, like marriage and parenthood's
13:12
Speaker 1: all about communication, yes, uh, but getting in our motherfuck segment,
13:16
Speaker 1: if I if I explain my first real dad loss,
13:23
Speaker 1: I'm sure there were others, but one that stands out
13:26
Speaker 1: is Rue was around i'd say eight to ten months old.
13:30
Speaker 1: She was crawling and we were upstairs for our little
13:33
Speaker 1: morning routine. We got the little birds playing on the
13:36
Speaker 1: sound machine. We're getting it ready for the day, and
13:40
Speaker 1: she's crawling around and it's one of those things where
13:42
Speaker 1: I'm like giving her the faces and I'm crawling after her,
13:44
Speaker 1: like I'm chasing her, and she's starting to get it
13:46
Speaker 1: a little bit. But she starts crawling for the door,
13:50
Speaker 1: and I'm thinking she's gonna go to the door, turn
13:52
Speaker 1: around and come back like she always does. And so
13:55
Speaker 1: I'm kind of waiting on the Carpetcause it's hardwood floor,
13:57
Speaker 1: Like I'm on my hands and knees. You know, the
13:58
Speaker 1: knees got a little bit of damage from the old
14:00
Speaker 1: playing days, remaining on the carpet ten years. She starts
14:03
Speaker 1: to leave the doorway crawling, and so I'm like, oh,
14:07
Speaker 1: you know, you think they're a lot smarter than they
14:09
Speaker 1: are at that DA's. But I'm like, oh, she's hiding
14:11
Speaker 1: from dead da And so I start crawling like I'm
14:13
Speaker 1: gonna get you, and I go outside of her door
14:16
Speaker 1: and her her room is on the second floor right
14:20
Speaker 1: outside sits right at the top of a flight of stairs.
14:25
Speaker 1: Big flight of stairs.
14:26
Speaker 2: Is it the house that you're currently in, Yes, big
14:28
Speaker 2: flight of stair.
14:29
Speaker 1: You guys are there shooting that trailer. Big flight of stairs.
14:31
Speaker 1: So she goes around this doorway and I'm like, oh,
14:34
Speaker 1: Dad is gonna get you. And I go around like, okay,
14:35
Speaker 1: I need to pick it up because I need to
14:36
Speaker 1: get my eyes on her. And I get around and
14:38
Speaker 1: I'm still on my hands and knees and she's about
14:41
Speaker 1: to step off. She's about to crawl off the top
14:44
Speaker 1: flight of stairs. And in my head, I'm like, surely
14:47
Speaker 1: she sees that this is not good. And so I say,
14:51
Speaker 1: she was like eight to ten months old. Bro, No,
14:53
Speaker 1: she wasn't walking yet, she was crawling, so probably around
14:55
Speaker 1: that ten month part. And I see you start to go,
14:58
Speaker 1: and so I stand up and bro she it starts
15:01
Speaker 1: down the stairs. I'm like chasing her down the stairs,
15:03
Speaker 1: like looking down like I'm in a war movie, running
15:05
Speaker 1: side next to her, trying to get to where I
15:07
Speaker 1: feel comfortable enough reaching down to get her up. By
15:09
Speaker 1: the time I grab her, she's three fourths of the
15:11
Speaker 1: way down that flight of stairs to where you were.
15:14
Speaker 1: You know, she had some thoughts like, oh, red Mark,
15:16
Speaker 1: she's crying. My wife was in the room with us,
15:20
Speaker 1: and we're standing down there and I'm just rocking on
15:22
Speaker 1: my Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I thought I
15:24
Speaker 1: killed her. And I'm just thinking in my head, like
15:26
Speaker 1: surely millions of babies fall all the time, Like we
15:28
Speaker 1: always talk about, joke with your boys, you must have
15:30
Speaker 1: got dropped on your head when you were younger. This
15:32
Speaker 1: is just one of those moments. This is just one
15:33
Speaker 1: of those moments.
15:34
Speaker 2: What was the initial like as soon as you pick
15:36
Speaker 2: her up, Like, what was the very first thing you
15:38
Speaker 2: checked her? Very first thing?
15:39
Speaker 1: You said? Nothing, I'm a hugging her, sweetheart. I'm so sorry.
15:42
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. Dead is so sorry. I'm right here,
15:43
Speaker 1: I'm right here. She's crying like it's not a tantrum,
15:47
Speaker 1: but she's like screaming crying because she's clearly hurt. But yeah,
15:49
Speaker 1: like lumps that was like raising from her head in
15:52
Speaker 1: like three different spots on her head. But that was
15:54
Speaker 1: probably my first big dad loss. And you know I
15:58
Speaker 1: didn't get cursed out, but it's one of those as
16:00
Speaker 1: we were standing around mom like this was on your watch. Yeah,
16:03
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. That's when I felt really low,
16:06
Speaker 1: as like, damn, this was all my fault.
16:09
Speaker 2: Is Charia the kind of energy where when she's quiet,
16:12
Speaker 2: it's even worse, like if you don't get that tongue lashing.
16:16
Speaker 2: It's almost like the feeling of remorse, of like or
16:20
Speaker 2: of no.
16:21
Speaker 1: Because she'll let me know with Charro what we'll talk
16:24
Speaker 1: about in our in our couple's therapy is more of
16:28
Speaker 1: I can't take it when it gets to the moment
16:30
Speaker 1: that she is overwhelmed and annoyed by something that either
16:33
Speaker 1: I had done or something that's going on, to where
16:34
Speaker 1: she just starts like picking up the house. Hey, what
16:36
Speaker 1: do you want to do with this? And it's Sunday night.
16:38
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking, do we gotta do this shit right now?
16:40
Speaker 1: We just got the kids down, Like, can't we just
16:41
Speaker 1: sit down and relax? That's me, Well you haven't, you haven't.
16:44
Speaker 1: I've told you about these boxes for for months. I'm
16:47
Speaker 1: just thinking about don't mention the doing boxes right now.
16:50
Speaker 1: I just want to watch a TV show because where
16:53
Speaker 1: you're like taking a load off, But it's more of
16:54
Speaker 1: like those moments is where she's kind of like letting
16:57
Speaker 1: me know. But in that moment, it's like we both
17:00
Speaker 1: know what happened. Yes, I obviously feel terrible, So I
17:03
Speaker 1: wasn't like cursed, It wasn't anything like that. You just
17:06
Speaker 1: feel like that was my first big dad loss of fatherhood.
17:10
Speaker 2: Well, and she probably didn't want to like put all
17:12
Speaker 2: the blame on you in the moment, because then that's
17:14
Speaker 2: something that's like gonna live with you for you.
17:17
Speaker 1: Know, however long.
17:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, she handled it. Sounded like she handled it really nice.
17:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like, if you know, I can't think of
17:25
Speaker 1: an example where she's like messed up, or if I
17:30
Speaker 1: hear her yell, like when it gets to a point
17:32
Speaker 1: to where you're trying to commune, I mean, these are
17:33
Speaker 1: little terrorists you're trying to communate with, very irrational, they're
17:37
Speaker 1: trying to handle their big emotions. Ru is very determined
17:39
Speaker 1: and independent, so she has like that she knows what
17:42
Speaker 1: she wants, and if she can't do it on her own,
17:44
Speaker 1: she gets extremely upset with herself, which is extremely upset
17:47
Speaker 1: about it can't get figured out, and you know, you
17:50
Speaker 1: get those moments where you kind of you lose yourself
17:54
Speaker 1: and you just yell back because you're you're just on
17:58
Speaker 1: a breaking point. You're trying to be as patient as possible,
18:00
Speaker 1: and you're just on a breaking point. It's where you're
18:02
Speaker 1: just like, I don't know what you want, and when
18:04
Speaker 1: I hear her yell, I'm all right, Dad, I need
18:06
Speaker 1: to go upstairs. I need to try to get the
18:08
Speaker 1: situation calm down. And you're not trying to loan on
18:11
Speaker 1: the fact. Hey, you know you shouldn't be yelling at
18:12
Speaker 1: her because it's like we already know what's happening. Yeah,
18:15
Speaker 1: you're not trying to cause more pain and blame somebody.
18:18
Speaker 1: But it's more like that's that's kind of how our
18:21
Speaker 1: conversations will go. Like if we have a low moment
18:23
Speaker 1: and it's like, hey, you forgot this. I literally told
18:26
Speaker 1: you so many times, like you forgot this and here's why,
18:30
Speaker 1: And it's probably because you were on your phone.
18:32
Speaker 2: Quick quick thing that you just remind me of during
18:35
Speaker 2: that story, of like the patience that you've built up.
18:38
Speaker 2: One thing I've noticed about myself of like assumed to
18:40
Speaker 2: be dad, is whenever I'm around Dad's and their kids
18:44
Speaker 2: are there too, I just kind of pick up on
18:48
Speaker 2: things like I'm looking for things like little learns and
18:50
Speaker 2: tidbits whatever. Jeremy that's here in our office has two
18:54
Speaker 2: boys here and an older daughter. But his two boys
18:58
Speaker 2: are in the office all the time, and whenever he's
19:01
Speaker 2: talking to me, JJ will be in the distance. It
19:03
Speaker 2: Dad Dad Sherman, Dad Dad Sherman, and Jeremy's just locked
19:08
Speaker 2: in talking like this, nothing's going on. If I then
19:13
Speaker 2: like answer back to him and JJ's Sherman Sherman, I
19:16
Speaker 2: have to go, yeah, what's up, buddy. When we were
19:19
Speaker 2: at breakfast the other morning and Rue was doing the
19:22
Speaker 2: same thing to you, and we're like having a serious
19:25
Speaker 2: conversation about this podcast, you're just locked in and you're
19:28
Speaker 2: looking at me and you're talking to me, and Ru's like,
19:31
Speaker 2: I don't want sir up on my French shows, and
19:33
Speaker 2: You're like okay, honey, and you're still like eye contact. Yeah, dude,
19:37
Speaker 2: I looked away a million times. I could tell that
19:39
Speaker 2: even you were like, Man, Sherman kind of folds the
19:42
Speaker 2: root pretty quick, like.
19:44
Speaker 1: Dude, Which is so funny that you bring that up,
19:45
Speaker 1: because I'm sitting there in my mind like Sherman stopped
19:48
Speaker 1: talking to her, like stop engaging. I could tell that
19:51
Speaker 1: because whenever we get to a break. Whenever we get
19:53
Speaker 1: to a moment of a break, it's gonna be like, hey, sweetheart,
19:55
Speaker 1: you know dad has talking like, let's have you, let's
19:57
Speaker 1: exercise a little bit of patience. But I'm thinking, surem
19:59
Speaker 1: stopp looking over and engaging with her and putting her
20:03
Speaker 1: stickers on the little sticker.
20:05
Speaker 2: Book sherman, where's elefant go? And I'm like, all right,
20:08
Speaker 2: here would be great, and you're you wouldn't move, you
20:11
Speaker 2: would just stay locked in, like, once you're do with
20:12
Speaker 2: that sticker, come back, let's talk.
20:14
Speaker 1: Do you Obviously you don't have one yet. But with Jill,

Speaker 2: what I was talking about too. She was like, you're
22:42
Speaker 2: gonna talk about daycare shopping.
22:44
Speaker 1: I was like yeah.
22:45
Speaker 2: She was like, yeah, you can tell that story.
22:47
Speaker 1: That's okay, let's hear it. Okay.
22:50
Speaker 2: So, uh, we're shopping for daycares. Jill's thirty two weeks
22:54
Speaker 2: I believe, or like thirty one going into thirty two
22:57
Speaker 2: weeks pregnant, and we're looking at daycares. We're kind of
23:03
Speaker 2: new to the scene. I've been texting you a little
23:04
Speaker 2: bit about it.
23:06
Speaker 1: But world tough, world, dude, ahead of time.
23:09
Speaker 2: Expensive is fuck, dude. Yes, the best deal that we
23:14
Speaker 2: have now, like the one that we decided on. It's
23:16
Speaker 2: twice a week and it's eight hundred dollars a month.
23:20
Speaker 1: It's crazy.
23:21
Speaker 2: But you go in, dude, these daycares. When you walk
23:24
Speaker 2: into them, it's like a cute zoo. It's like a
23:28
Speaker 2: zoo but of just cuteness, dude. And they have them
23:31
Speaker 2: like it's almost like they have them fully trained when
23:34
Speaker 2: you walk in to like look out the classroom window
23:36
Speaker 2: and be like and way, so you're waving out all
23:39
Speaker 2: these like little two something three something year olds and
23:41
Speaker 2: you're like, oh my god, they're so cute, Like that's
23:44
Speaker 2: what mine's going to be, Like it's gonna have good
23:45
Speaker 2: table manners and YadA YadA. That whole experience was phenomenal.
23:50
Speaker 2: I love daycare shopping, and I selfishly am not going
23:54
Speaker 2: to shout out the daycare that we chose because I'm
23:56
Speaker 2: on a wait list and I'm trying to get in
23:58
Speaker 2: that mug. Yeah yeah, yeah, I'm not gonna yes, yeah, yeah,
24:02
Speaker 2: So I'm not gonna name it specifically, but once we're
24:04
Speaker 2: in there, I will gladly shout them out. But yeah,
24:08
Speaker 2: the motherfuck situation was essentially I should have woken up
24:12
Speaker 2: at six thirty and started getting breakfast going because my
24:15
Speaker 2: girl just wanted to look pretty. She's wanted to take
24:18
Speaker 2: her time in the shower, she wants to pick out
24:20
Speaker 2: her outfit, she wants to have her makeup all done
24:22
Speaker 2: so she looks like a really good future mommy, and
24:25
Speaker 2: she wants her husband to do the same. So it's like,
24:28
Speaker 2: we are normal humans. You should totally let us have
24:30
Speaker 2: our kid be in your daycare because we're going to
24:33
Speaker 2: multiple daycares that day. Slept in like till the last second.
24:38
Speaker 1: Day that's terms Achilles. Heel right there, that'll he This
24:41
Speaker 1: dude could have a tornado siren going off in his
24:45
Speaker 1: room and he won't wake up.
24:46
Speaker 2: Jill is literally going like this right now, She's She's like,
24:50
Speaker 2: thank you will She allegedly allegedly shook me like she's
24:54
Speaker 2: trying to get me up. But I gave her the
24:56
Speaker 2: once I was awake, I was looking at my phone
24:59
Speaker 2: and I gave her the honey, hey, just one second,
25:02
Speaker 2: I'm watching this last thing, and I promise you I
25:04
Speaker 2: have my outfit picked out.
25:05
Speaker 1: We're all good.
25:07
Speaker 2: We weren't all good. We were late headed out of
25:09
Speaker 2: the house. And for any guy out there that has kids,
25:13
Speaker 2: any dads right now or future dads with a pregnant wife,
25:16
Speaker 2: you cannot miss breakfast because that stomach starts hurtin And
25:19
Speaker 2: she just turned into the angriest mama bear she has
25:22
Speaker 2: ever been. And I got a tongue lashing on the
25:26
Speaker 2: way to the daycares about I'm not responsible and just
25:32
Speaker 2: like the you always do this, hers is you never
25:36
Speaker 2: do that.
25:37
Speaker 1: So she was saying, it's always the permanent words always, never, never.
25:42
Speaker 1: She said, you have done nothing in the preparation of
25:45
Speaker 1: our daughter. On the way too, on the way to
25:49
Speaker 1: the daycare, which in my head, that is not true.
25:54
Speaker 1: Did it sting?
25:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's stung, But I swallowed it because I've learned, like, you.
26:00
Speaker 1: Gotta take listen, this is your mental load. It's starting
26:02
Speaker 1: to stack up. You gotta take this. You gotta take
26:05
Speaker 1: the hits, and I'm taking the You're in the A
26:07
Speaker 1: gap right now.
26:08
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, dude, I'm like death gripping the wheel and
26:11
Speaker 2: I'm driving down was it for forty? G The head's west,
26:16
Speaker 2: I'm heading down four forty west and I'm just locked
26:19
Speaker 2: in here and she's I'm getting it so bad, and
26:23
Speaker 2: I'm like, I just I gotta let her have her
26:24
Speaker 2: moment and get this out. But I did make the
26:27
Speaker 2: mistake of I said hey, honey, and she sobbed, and
26:30
Speaker 2: I go, I want you to know I'm listening to
26:33
Speaker 2: you right now, and I think about eighty five percent
26:36
Speaker 2: of what you're saying are really good points. But you
26:39
Speaker 2: don't have to yell at me right now. We can
26:42
Speaker 2: just talk. And she that sparked it a bit more,
26:46
Speaker 2: which I you know, it's just hilarious.
26:48
Speaker 1: IM thinking, Hey, it's a nice little yes, it's a
26:51
Speaker 1: nice little point of trying to defuse it.
26:55
Speaker 2: But we we get to the we get to the
26:57
Speaker 2: parking lot.
26:58
Speaker 1: And trying to figure out, oh, I thought that was
27:01
Speaker 1: pretty good for you on game. I thought yeah. I
27:04
Speaker 1: was like, oh shit, he gotta put me on some games.
27:06
Speaker 2: You put me on game, so I'll take that's a compliment.
27:08
Speaker 2: But we get to the parking lot and long story short,
27:12
Speaker 2: she's wiping her makeup plans, her makeup off, and we
27:14
Speaker 2: did a really good job of acting like we have
27:17
Speaker 2: We have never fought a day in our lives, and
27:20
Speaker 2: we're the happiest couple ever, and look at our little
27:22
Speaker 2: bundle of joy that's coming. And I had a great line.
27:25
Speaker 2: She loves scary movies. She loves some movie theaters. So
27:29
Speaker 2: we had talked obviously. After the daycare, we worked things
27:32
Speaker 2: out and she apologized. But at the movies, when she
27:36
Speaker 2: was all happy with their popcorn, I said, hey, I
27:39
Speaker 2: do just want to apologize. I am a really bad husband.
27:43
Speaker 2: I don't think I've done anything to prepare for Scarlet.
27:46
Speaker 2: And she picked up some popcorn and tossed it at me,
27:49
Speaker 2: and she was like, if that's my only blow up
27:51
Speaker 2: on you as a pregnant woman, like, consider yourself lucky.
27:54
Speaker 2: I was like, all right, I'll take it.
27:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we're all good. Out of the fire.
27:57
Speaker 2: We're out of the fire.
27:58
Speaker 1: You got out of the fire.
28:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, we can segue to crack a cold one.
28:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about it. Let's talk about a positive
28:06
Speaker 1: Let's talk talk about something that we would crack a
28:08
Speaker 1: cold one too. Mine is going to be pizza Friday.
28:13
Speaker 1: I think having a weekly ritual with the fam is
28:17
Speaker 1: uh is important. It's something that we started early because
28:21
Speaker 1: in in the world the world moves fast. Man. You
28:24
Speaker 1: talk to any dad, you talk to anybody the generation
28:27
Speaker 1: before you, the consensus is always the phrase. It goes
28:31
Speaker 1: by fast. Enjoy it. Yeah, And I think for me,
28:34
Speaker 1: in a world where everything moves fast, with appointments, work meetings,
28:38
Speaker 1: phone calls, again, marriage, you're trying to juggle a lot
28:42
Speaker 1: of the chaos going on, Pizza Friday is something that
28:47
Speaker 1: that we've leaned on to where hey, this is where
28:49
Speaker 1: we kind of show up as a family, you know,
28:52
Speaker 1: I know it Like dads in our minds at times,
28:55
Speaker 1: we think we have to show up for something big
28:58
Speaker 1: to matter, whether we're fixed something, whether we're providing, whether
29:02
Speaker 1: we're saving the day, and you begin to realize that
29:06
Speaker 1: parenthood and being intentional is about like showing up in
29:09
Speaker 1: those small consistencies. Yeah, and pizza Friday is one of
29:12
Speaker 1: those for us because I know, growing up, for me,
29:14
Speaker 1: a lot of my fondest memories are being in the
29:17
Speaker 1: backyard for barbecues. My dad loved throwing throwing meat on
29:21
Speaker 1: the grill, my mom loved making sides, we loved having
29:23
Speaker 1: friends over, and I just vividly have those are some
29:28
Speaker 1: of my best memories. And it's something that I remember
29:30
Speaker 1: anytime that I'm grilling or at a grill out or
29:32
Speaker 1: a cookout, whatever the case is. It's like, subconsciously in
29:35
Speaker 1: my mind, I'm always I'm always thinking back to when
29:40
Speaker 1: we had these family barbecues because we would have them
29:42
Speaker 1: often at least, like you know, when it's summertime, you're
29:44
Speaker 1: having them a couple times a month, and Alder brothers
29:48
Speaker 1: are out there, right yeah yeah yeah yeah. And so
29:50
Speaker 1: for us, like for Pizza Fridays, I always take Roue.
29:54
Speaker 1: She gets in the car with Dad. We order from
29:57
Speaker 1: our favorite spot, and I will shout out the local
29:59
Speaker 1: the local spot, Home Team Pizza. We put it in
30:02
Speaker 1: an order for Home Team pizza. I take rue. It's
30:04
Speaker 1: kind of our time to spend together to where we go.
30:06
Speaker 1: We go inside, she talks to everybody. We get the pizza,
30:11
Speaker 1: we bring it home. I live rou carry the little
30:14
Speaker 1: whether it's a little bag of buckeyes, shout out hate
30:17
Speaker 1: you guys got shot out the buckeye, whether it's the
30:20
Speaker 1: little bag of buckeyes or the small box of like
30:24
Speaker 1: their little breadstick bites, O real, carry the small one
30:27
Speaker 1: in and every time she walks in the door, Mama,
30:30
Speaker 1: we're home. It's pizza Friday, and we enjoy whatever the
30:34
Speaker 1: movie it is. So it's like, what when my kids
30:37
Speaker 1: get older, you know, they won't always remember the toys
30:41
Speaker 1: or the lectures that their old man gave them, because
30:43
Speaker 1: I'll probably be giving probably be giving a lot of lectures.
30:48
Speaker 1: But I want them to remember the times that they
30:51
Speaker 1: spent together as a family to where my daughter's got
30:54
Speaker 1: it in the car with dad. They drove to go
30:56
Speaker 1: pick up pizza, and we brought home the smell of
30:58
Speaker 1: pizza and we shared laugh, whether it's tears, whatever it was,
31:02
Speaker 1: we enjoyed a movie together as a family. And that's
31:04
Speaker 1: how we show up each week as a family. We're
31:07
Speaker 1: not always consistent where we hit it every Friday, but
31:09
Speaker 1: every Friday that we're home, any Friday that we might
31:13
Speaker 1: be on the road together at a vacation together, pizza
31:15
Speaker 1: Fridays is a staple for like a weekly ritual for
31:19
Speaker 1: the family. So that's kind of my crack of cold
31:21
Speaker 1: one too. That's kind of like my one of the
31:23
Speaker 1: staples in our family.
31:25
Speaker 2: It feels consistent as hell, like seeing it on social
31:28
Speaker 2: media just as a like third party outside of it,
31:32
Speaker 2: it seems like y'all are doing that every Friday. And
31:35
Speaker 2: I love the idea of like traditions to you if
31:38
Speaker 2: y'all kind of creating traditions and you'll know too.
31:42
Speaker 1: It's like consistency and routine is big for kids knowing
31:46
Speaker 1: like hey, guess what today is? And you know, it
31:49
Speaker 1: might be Monday and it's gymnastics day or Wednesday and
31:51
Speaker 1: it's swim day for Rue, But anytime you're just like, hey,
31:54
Speaker 1: guess what day it is, she's just always like pizza Friday.
31:56
Speaker 1: It's like, okay, no, that's after two more sleeps, but
31:59
Speaker 1: they know when it's Friday, it is pizza Friday. Yeah,
32:03
Speaker 1: So that's my uh crack cole one that's my crack
32:06
Speaker 1: of cold one.
32:06
Speaker 2: I actually I wasn't going to do a crack a
32:09
Speaker 2: cold one, but I do have a crack a cold
32:11
Speaker 2: one for you.
32:18
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so you don't have one. You don't have
32:22

32:23
Speaker 1: I didn't.
32:24
Speaker 2: Well, I like had one that I was kind of finagle,
32:27
Speaker 2: but to go off of, I'll crack a cold one
32:29
Speaker 2: to you because you did an incredible job. You were
32:33
Speaker 2: charo uh with Rue when we were over to film
32:35
Speaker 2: that trailer of when Ree wanted to teach me and
32:39
Speaker 2: how she tells the world good morning, and that might
32:44
Speaker 2: have been a top five cutest thing I've ever seen
32:47
Speaker 2: in my life of her picking up a footstool, moving
32:50
Speaker 2: it to the window, throwing open the curtains like a
32:53
Speaker 2: Disney character, and she's just a good morning world, so
32:58
Speaker 2: loud and so confident, and I love that. Charlie was like,
33:02
Speaker 2: we haven't done that in a minute, yeah with real
33:05
Speaker 2: or maybe you said that, I can't remember, but yeah,
33:08
Speaker 2: you did it enough to where it's.
33:09
Speaker 1: In there, like Yeah, it's like when they're little and
33:11
Speaker 1: they're starting to figure things out and you're trying to
33:13
Speaker 1: like keep them in a routine of how mourning works.
33:16
Speaker 1: Like we'll have the sound machine and when she wakes up,
33:18
Speaker 1: we'll turn it to the birds chirping, just to like
33:20
Speaker 1: get her psyche in the mindset of like, hey, we're
33:23
Speaker 1: we're doing the morning routine. So you pick her up
33:25
Speaker 1: out of the crib when she couldn't walk, and you'd
33:26
Speaker 1: just be like high world and do all these things.
33:28
Speaker 1: So that way they know that you're starting to like
33:31
Speaker 1: you're starting to like manufacture this hard wiring of how
33:33
Speaker 1: each day works. But yeah, it had been a minute
33:36
Speaker 1: since i'd seen her do the whole good Morning world,
33:39

39:18
Speaker 3: Christmas in their heart and keep their little childhood dreams alive,
39:22

39:26

39:46
Speaker 1: It seems like he's very aware. So this man Hunter,
39:49
Speaker 1: you know, what was this question? Again? How would I
39:52
Speaker 1: handle being Santa Claus on the phone to his to
39:55
Speaker 1: his kids.
39:56
Speaker 2: If Hunter was to call you because his kids are
39:58
Speaker 2: I don't know if I believe in Santae anymore. Well,
40:01
Speaker 2: let me call up Sannah right now. And you're the
40:05
Speaker 2: person that he called, how would you handle.
40:07
Speaker 1: That, Sanna being real?
40:09
Speaker 2: No?
40:09
Speaker 1: No, how would how would you.
40:10
Speaker 2: Handle role playing Sanna? If you need, I don't mind
40:14
Speaker 2: being Hunter's kid and we can just we can run

Speaker 2: through it right now.
40:17
Speaker 1: What's your name, Billy? Billy?
40:20

40:27
Speaker 1: Hey, Billy, I'm hearing you're having some questions about myself

40:45
Speaker 1: couple of questions that I got to answer with them.
40:48
Speaker 2: Daddy's talking to the elves.
40:49
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, Sanna, I was just wondering. Uh, my
40:53
Speaker 5: friends at school in the lunch room, they're all picking
40:56
Speaker 5: on me. They're all telling me that you're not real
40:58
Speaker 5: and that I'm just a dumb kid for believing in you.
41:01
Speaker 1: Why would they say such a thing, Billy, you're talking.
41:04
Speaker 1: You're talking to old Santa Claus right now. I know
41:07
Speaker 1: you're excited for Christmas. What would you like for Christmas? Billy?
41:10
Speaker 2: I love an Xbox.
41:12
Speaker 1: Here's what I would Billy. Listen to me closely. Here's
41:15
Speaker 1: what I'll tell You're gonna go back to that cafeteria.
41:17
Speaker 1: You're gonna go back to that lunch room on your
41:19
Speaker 1: next day of school, and you're gonna tell your friends
41:21
Speaker 1: you spoke to Santa Claus on the phone. Yeah, you
41:24
Speaker 1: ask for an Xbox, and if you get an Xbox
41:26
Speaker 1: on Christmas, you're gonna tell them that that's their belief
41:30
Speaker 1: on what they're gonna get for their toy. You're gonna
41:31
Speaker 1: show them. You're gonna prove to them that Santa is
41:33
Speaker 1: reel because you are going to get what you want
41:35
Speaker 1: and can you do another thing for me, Billy anything Santa.
41:38
Speaker 1: Ask them what they would like for Christmas as well,
41:41
Speaker 1: and also mark down their address marked mark down their
41:45
Speaker 1: address and what their parents' name might be on where
41:47
Speaker 1: they could possibly receive this secret gift. But don't tell them,
41:51
Speaker 1: don't tell them that Santa Claus is telling you this,
41:53
Speaker 1: and then we will prove to them together that Santa
41:55
Speaker 1: Claus is real.
42:00
Speaker 2: That's well done. That's well done. That was a great dude,
42:05
Speaker 2: proving it by also getting their parents involved, because their
42:08
Speaker 2: parents are gonna be like, who the hell is this from?
42:10
Speaker 2: And it's gonna come and you were gonna see yeah,
42:12
Speaker 2: say it is from Santa.
42:14
Speaker 1: So spoiler alert, Hunter is Taylor and Taylor. A few
42:21
Speaker 1: years back when I did not have kids, he needed
42:23
Speaker 1: me to talk to Win because Winn was having a
42:29
Speaker 1: bed issue and they were trying to solve it by
42:33
Speaker 1: her talking to Santa and then keeping the keeping the
42:36
Speaker 1: life of Christmas alive and maybe helping her work on
42:39
Speaker 1: wetting the bed. And I wet the bed on the phone.
42:42
Speaker 1: I was in the middle of a whole Foods and
42:44
Speaker 1: I was show, you know, you're doing all these different
42:46
Speaker 1: things at once, so you can't like be intentional and
42:48
Speaker 1: focus on what he actually needed from me. Yeah, And
42:51
Speaker 1: so I handled it all wrong. I told her that
42:53
Speaker 1: if she she didn't stop, if she didn't stop winning
42:59
Speaker 1: the bed, she might I get any presents. You had
43:06
Speaker 1: to kind of rush her out there. And then he
43:07
Speaker 1: called me. He said, what was that, dude, I don't know.
43:11
Speaker 1: I don't know. I panicked. I thought, you want to
43:12
Speaker 1: understop wining the bed. I'm trying to motivate her by hey,
43:14
Speaker 1: you're gonna get Christmas president you don't start went to bed.
43:17
Speaker 4: Tell me about the wedding the bed part. He just said,
43:20
Speaker 4: you didn't you didn't do a Santa voice at all.
43:23
Speaker 4: You answered it as well and just went yeah, hey.
43:31
Speaker 1: Oh, I went yeah, this is Santa Claus b. Thank
43:37
Speaker 1: you Hunter for calling in. Thank you Hunter for calling in.
43:39
Speaker 1: But that is kind of the idea of what we
43:41
Speaker 1: want to do with the voicemails every week. So again,
43:43
Speaker 1: call into the hotline six oh one. The Dad's We're
43:47
Speaker 1: gonna wrap this up here soon. We got some little
43:49
Speaker 1: product recommendation for your survival kit. Myself. I'll keep it short,
43:52
Speaker 1: I'll keep it tight, I'll keep it right. Yeah. Yeah.
43:55
Speaker 1: A go to for myself is every evening we down
44:00
Speaker 1: at the dinner table and I have The Daily Dad
44:02
Speaker 1: sitting there by. Ryan Holliday, awesome guy to look into
44:05
Speaker 1: for the Daily Dad newsletter. He's got a book called
44:08
Speaker 1: The Daily Dad where it gives you like three hundred
44:09
Speaker 1: and sixty five days of different lessons in the book
44:12
Speaker 1: that you'll like learn and it's based on through stoicism.
44:15
Speaker 1: Big fan of stoicism. But the Daily Dad I would
44:17
Speaker 1: recommend for your survival kit. And I would also recommend
44:20
Speaker 1: the book twelve Hours in twelve weeks or twelve hours
44:23
Speaker 1: by twelve weeks. I know I've tweeted about it before,
44:25
Speaker 1: but parents kind of like getting into the thick of like, hey,
44:28
Speaker 1: what's a book I can read. If your dad out
44:30
Speaker 1: there trying to figure out something you could do to
44:32
Speaker 1: support the wife, I strongly recommend twelve hours and twelve weeks.
44:36
Speaker 1: It's like a sleep training book that is not overly aggressive.
44:39
Speaker 1: It's the way the child can like adapt to your
44:41
Speaker 1: life versus you adapting to everything and catering everything around them.
44:45
Speaker 1: It's got a lot of practical ways for you to
44:46
Speaker 1: get them sleep trained by twelve weeks. I want to say,
44:49
Speaker 1: Rue it took her about sixteen seventeen weeks, and Scotty
44:52
Speaker 1: was like twelve weeks, maybe even eleven. And it was
44:55
Speaker 1: all based around the teachings and everything inside of this book.
44:59
Speaker 1: Twelve hours in twelve weeks. But those would be my
45:03
Speaker 1: survival kit recommendations for dads out there thinking about something
45:07
Speaker 1: could do, like even for yourself, like trending toward having
45:10
Speaker 1: your first child, or maybe your first one didn't go
45:12
Speaker 1: well and you might be looking for something in your
45:14
Speaker 1: second one, or you might maybe in the thick of
45:16
Speaker 1: it now and you can dive in. Yeah, but those
45:19
Speaker 1: would be my survival kit product recommendations. Again, the first
45:23
Speaker 1: book is just The Daily Dad, Daily Dead. Yeah, and
45:26
Speaker 1: then the next segment being a dad Hack. I would
45:30
Speaker 1: say plan your solo time. You realize, like you were
45:34
Speaker 1: already you juggling this around in your mind, like you know,
45:36
Speaker 1: life being kind of over, not like not over, but
45:40
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot going on to where the
45:42
Speaker 1: life as you know it will no longer be. You
45:44
Speaker 1: won't have the freedom and the free time and everything
45:47
Speaker 1: that you kind of have. You even don't realize it.
45:49
Speaker 1: When the baby comes home, then you start realizing all
45:52
Speaker 1: these different things that mom might know and understand, and
45:54
Speaker 1: you're just trying to figure out where do you fit
45:56
Speaker 1: in the whole puzzle. Yeah, I would say planning your
45:59
Speaker 1: solo time because you're gonna be spread then through work,
46:02
Speaker 1: you're gonna be spread then through being at home being
46:04
Speaker 1: supportive to where you kind of like lose time for yourself.
46:08
Speaker 1: So planning your solo time, whether it's a workout an
46:10
Speaker 1: hour a day, whether it's the time you want to
46:13
Speaker 1: pull out the you know, the lifeline of taking a
46:16
Speaker 1: deuce at the right time, or reading a book, whatever
46:18
Speaker 1: your solo time looks like, you need to make sure
46:20
Speaker 1: to start planning for it, because a lot of things
46:23
Speaker 1: change when you do have kids, and if you're out
46:25
Speaker 1: there trying to think of ways that you might be missing.
46:27
Speaker 1: How to feed yourself is plan out, schedule out your
46:31
Speaker 1: solo time.
46:32
Speaker 2: I love that very quickly. I'll segue into one. I
46:37
Speaker 2: need to get that daily dad. I'm gonna give myself
46:40
Speaker 2: a homework assignment. Okay, of getting daily dads. Starting to
46:43
Speaker 2: read into that, because our next segment is what are
46:50
Speaker 2: the odds? Shout out fan duel with what are the odds?
46:53
Speaker 2: We'll just be talking about anything that's crazy coincidence that
46:56
Speaker 2: happened with the kids. Maybe they puked and they missed
47:00
Speaker 2: every single thing except for that one really nice thing
47:03
Speaker 2: in your living room.
47:04
Speaker 1: That's the.
47:06
Speaker 2: The segment. But what are the odds? Is Scarlet is
47:12
Speaker 2: potentially going to be a freedom baby, pending that Jill
47:18
Speaker 2: is going to get induced on July third.
47:22
Speaker 1: Explain that what's a freedom baby.
47:24
Speaker 2: A freedom baby is a baby that would be born
47:27
Speaker 2: on July fourth, the fourth of July Independence Day. Got so, Scarlette,
47:35
Speaker 2: that's all right, but Scarlet potentially being a freedom baby.
47:39
Speaker 2: Jill called me today. They said, baby Scarlet is looking healthy.
47:43
Speaker 2: She had a stress test and a screening today. They said,
47:45
Speaker 2: we want to induce you at thirty eight weeks and
47:50
Speaker 2: that will be the week of July first, and we
47:53
Speaker 2: want to aim for July third, so she will be
47:55
Speaker 2: born on the fourth of July.
47:57
Speaker 1: Ooh, our little firecracker. Dude, I'm hype for you, man.
48:05
Speaker 1: We're the world's gonna change. Oh, but I'm hype for you, bro. Yeah.
48:08
Speaker 2: My life is over as as I know it, as
48:11
Speaker 2: you know.
48:11
Speaker 1: It right now as a somebody who gets to kind
48:14
Speaker 1: of operate selfishly with your wife. Yeah, life's over life.
48:19
Speaker 1: That life's behind you.
48:21
Speaker 2: That's the spodcast.
48:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's why. Yeah, that's why you have
48:24
Speaker 1: a safe space now. Yes, sweetheart, we love you, chili Bean,
48:27
Speaker 1: we love you.
48:28
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm glad that you said that at the beginning,
48:30
Speaker 2: because that did that took the pressure off. I was like,
48:32
Speaker 2: I do need to act like you know, no one's listening.
48:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're just talking. We're just talking. This is this
48:39
Speaker 1: is a conversation just for the dads. Only dads are listening.
48:42
Speaker 1: Only dads are listening.
48:43
Speaker 2: You thinks you could be charged with if you're just
48:45
Speaker 2: talking about Yeah, yeah, we're just talking about it.
48:48
Speaker 1: We're standing around the garage events. Okay. So to wrap
48:54
Speaker 1: it up, yes, to wrap it up quote lesson or
48:59
Speaker 1: mantra in a phrase, because you're going to be a
49:02
Speaker 1: girl dad as well. So this is more tailored towards
49:05
Speaker 1: the girl dad's out there. And one that you hear
49:09
Speaker 1: a phrase that you love and you don't quite understand it.
49:12
Speaker 1: And it's not like a moment that happens, but it's
49:14
Speaker 1: like moments in fatherhood that you begin to realize how
49:17
Speaker 1: important this is. But my lesson that's going to stem
49:22
Speaker 1: from this quote Will's lesson of the week lesson of
49:25
Speaker 1: the week is that and I have a little write
49:28
Speaker 1: up about this, is that you are your daughter's first love.
49:34
Speaker 1: And it's not something where you're trying to be romantic.
49:37
Speaker 1: It's about being the first role model of what love
49:40
Speaker 1: looks like. You're the first man to hold her, You're
49:43
Speaker 1: the first one to make her laugh on a hard day.
49:46
Speaker 1: You're the first one to show her that love doesn't
49:49
Speaker 1: have to be hurt or earn or beg to be kept.
49:53
Speaker 1: And that's a huge responsibility. It's a lot of pressure,
49:55
Speaker 1: but it's also a gift because how you treat her
49:58
Speaker 1: how you treat her mom, and how you show up
50:00
Speaker 1: when it's inconvenient or hard. She's watching, not just now,
50:05
Speaker 1: but forever. She's learning what does it mean to be protected?
50:09
Speaker 1: What does it look like when someone listens to me?
50:12
Speaker 1: And am I worth someone's time even when they're tired?
50:16
Speaker 1: Because you are laying down the emotional hardwiring that she
50:19
Speaker 1: will lean on for years. And that's not the pressure
50:23
Speaker 1: the girl that's out there, but to empower you. Because
50:26
Speaker 1: when you kiss her on the forehead, or you let
50:27
Speaker 1: her put bows in your hair, or you say I
50:29
Speaker 1: love you for no reason, you're teaching her this is
50:32
Speaker 1: how love should feel. Did you write that? Yeah, I
50:37
Speaker 1: put the pin the paper a little bit. I had
50:40
Speaker 1: a little bit of help. Damn, a couple articles on it.
50:44
Speaker 1: I'm reading. I'm in the middle of reading the book
50:47
Speaker 1: Strong Father's Strong Daughters. And there's a part in the
50:50
Speaker 1: book where the author she talks about this and so,
50:58
Speaker 1: and it's a it's yeah, it's I think it's great.
51:03
Speaker 1: I Uh.
51:05
Speaker 2: One, that gets me fucking juiced because I have a
51:07
Speaker 2: little girl myself coming. Yeah, And two, maybe we didn't
51:10
Speaker 2: touch on it enough at the top. I want everybody
51:14
Speaker 2: to know I'm scared shitless to have a daughter, yeah, buddy,
51:18
Speaker 2: But yes, I have the most incredible wife in the world.
51:22
Speaker 2: She was raised by a single mother, and Jill's the
51:26
Speaker 2: most incredible woman in the world. Her, my mother in law,
51:29
Speaker 2: is incredible to all herself. But I see the relationship
51:34
Speaker 2: that Jill already has with my dad, her father in law,
51:37
Speaker 2: and how special that relationship is to her. And uh,
51:42
Speaker 2: it's a it's a really tall order. It's a really
51:48
Speaker 2: tall order. And I'm really lucky. And uh, dude, I'm
51:51
Speaker 2: fucking stoked to be here, to have met you and
51:55

52:30
Speaker 1: history a little bit any way that I had with
