• 3:06
  Speaker 2: 94, 95, back to back, baby.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Back to back.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: And a lot of people are saying it's starting to
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: feel a little like 94, 95. We don't want to
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: get too far into it.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: But it is starting to feel like 94, 95 all
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: over again. Some can throw in 97. I do.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: And I had a little help from... I want to
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: give a special shout out to Justin Williams. He is
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: a PT sicko. He messaged me months ago. Found that
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: in a story.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: He said.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: I think it could only go to one guy. We
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: got to get this to Willie. See, I said, Justin,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: I would love to go in on it for you.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: And so he shipped it to me. I paid him back.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: So it's really a gift from Justin Williams and myself.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: By the way, this is a phenomenal gift. For those
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: that are just listening right now and not watching on YouTube,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: it is a Huskers jersey.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: 94 on the front, 95 on the back. Last name National.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: And underneath the 95, it says Champions. I actually have
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: a follow-up right here from Chase Cunningham At Bold City
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Coast to Coast. This is on YouTube. The boys having
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: to bring Will back down to earth whenever he goes
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: into his fandom for Nebraska is the funniest ongoing joke
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: of the bus to the point where when I hear
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: him say it, I'm like, oh, God, somebody please stop him. Look,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I like this football team. We're going into Michigan State
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: this weekend. We're going to beat their candy asses. We're
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: going to run the ball. We're going to throw the ball.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: We're going to do whatever the fuck we want to
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: do to the Spartans. And after we win on the
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: road first conference game, You'll start to hear the hype
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: come a little bit more. If I didn't already lay
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: out some hype right there. All I'm saying is I
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: like this football team. We're not going to get too high.

  Speaker 1: my right now, minus five and a half. Go ahead
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: and take it. Go ahead and take it. Hey, what
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: broke my heart was hearing Willie C.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Then after our episode last week, he started walking around
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: the office and he started saying that he's being shadow
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: banned by our office.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I'm being suppressed.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: He's being suppressed. He's being shadow banned. And you gave
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: me a look that was like, et tu, Brute? Like,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: what are you doing? You were my guy. And I
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: knew that I had that in the holster. And I
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: was like, I need to feed into the Nebraska. I
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: need to feed into it. Best birthday gift?
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: I don't know.

• 6:43
  Speaker 1: the headphones on. She was rocking in Memorial Stadium. People
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: are like, oh, Willie, see, where's the hype videos before

• 7:10
  Speaker 1: that's all right. That's a good place to be. They
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: know that you love them. Yeah. I have a write-in.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: On the topic with Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, this comes
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: from Nick Hayden. This is a really cool write-in and
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: story from one of our PT sickos that decided to
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: reach out to us just because of us helping tell
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: the story of Evie the Brave. He wanted to share
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: a little bit of his own experience with childhood cancer.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Back in 2014, his now sister-in-law, Megan, was diagnosed with
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: stage four, I'll give it my best shot, Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: He said in parentheses, good luck with that one, Willie boy.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Otherwise known as ARMS. Megan was just 14 years old.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: This was also around the time my now wife and
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I started dating. I got to witness firsthand what childhood
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: cancer can do to a family, but I also got
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: to see the incredible difference a strong community can can
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: make when a family is going through the worst moments
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: of their lives. Unfortunately, after more than seven years of fighting,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Megan passed away in 2022, but before she did, Megan
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: accomplished some truly incredible things. She traveled to Washington, D.C.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: to speak about the fact that childhood cancer research receives
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: only 4% of federal cancer research funding. She visited children
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: across the country, inspiring them to keep fighting She raised
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: more than a million dollars herself and helped fully fund
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: two research labs in Portland, Oregon, dedicated to finding better
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: treatments and ultimately beating childhood cancer. After Megan passed, my
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: father-in-law started the Megan's Mission Foundation to continue her fight
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: and carry on the legacy. Throughout the entire battle, her
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: dad was right there beside her. During one of the
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: most difficult periods that my wife's family has ever faced,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: I got a front row seat to what being an
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: amazing father looks like. My father-in-law was not only running
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: our school district as superintendent, but he also made sure
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: to never miss his daughter's games or performances.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: He made dinner.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: He went to doctor's appointments. He had sleepovers with his girls.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: He did all the little things that a great dad does.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Even while his family was facing something no family should
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: ever have to endure. He taught me more lessons during
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: the most difficult time of his life than he probably
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: realizes to this day. I still take every opportunity I
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: can to learn from him, especially now as my wife
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: and I get ready to welcome our own daughter in November.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: Hearing Evie's story from her dad, Dylan, immediately reminded me
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: of my father-in-law. Dylan, I don't know ya, and I
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: don't know Evie, but I do know what it looks
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: like when a dad refuses to stop fighting for his daughter.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: You're both badasses. And I have no doubt Megan is
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: looking out for you guys. Love you boys. Keep up
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: the great work. And as always, fuck childhood cancer. Hashtag
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: more than four. And that's in reference to the 4%
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: of federal spending dollars on cancer. Cancer research, going to
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: childhood cancer. That's Nick from Wisconsin.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Nick, thank you for the message. Thank you for the write-in.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Thank you for sharing the story, and that was also
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: very sweet of you to reach out and tell Dylan
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: How much him and the family's been fighting for Evie.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: I started to feel it in my nose.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, dude.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: I started to feel it in my nose a little bit.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: I fought that really, really hard.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: And it's also, I know that his words, I don't
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: want to speak for Nick, but I feel like his
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: words go out to any listeners of this pod that
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: are facing or have loved ones facing childhood cancer.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: You're all badasses, dude. Truly. Yeah. I can only imagine, man.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: You want to hit some follow-ups? Follow-ups from last week's episode.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: We had a little choking scare with Scott Zilla. And
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: I will say, Milk Team 6 APR report. APR, Charo laughed.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: She thought it was a fun episode. She thought the
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: energy was good. She was laughing a lot of the episode. Okay, good.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: So we had a good follow-up.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: I did.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Before the episode came out, I told her. I kind
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: of told her what was... Okay, good. I said, yeah, sweetheart,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: I just got to be honest with you. I didn't
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: tell you, but Scotty had a little bit of a
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: choking scare.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: At last week at the Luan birthday party.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: No better dad hack than, I think it is a
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: dad hack, is delivering bad news to your wife via podcast.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Because it has come in handy for myself. So any
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: dads out there, just start a podcast.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Start a podcast.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: No one even has to listen to it. Just post
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: anything you don't want to tell your wife in person.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Just send it to us. We'll tell her.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Hey, yeah.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: We just get a bunch of write-ins next week or
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: voicemails like, hey, I've been wanting to tell my wife this.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Can't do it. I'm just going to do it through
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: your guys' show. Go tell the wife I can't mow
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: the lawn on Saturday.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: I'm going to Brandon's for his birthday.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Can you tell wifey? Oh, my gosh. This one here
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: is from Nick C9 Sicko on YouTube. You got to
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: get the D-Choker and keep one in the car. I
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: got them for my daughter's preschool, one for the house,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: and one for each of our cars. Ounce of prevention
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: is worth a pound of cure. Oh, a little bar
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: there from old Nicky Sicko. Let's go.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Nathan Hoskins7689 on YouTube says, No way. Sure, I'm wanting
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: to take a puppy home, but sent his other dogs
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: four states away with his parents.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: Ha ha ha ha ha. Hey, bro, I was seeing
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: some of those comments where it's like, what the hell
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: is Sherm talking about? He just shipped his two dogs
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: to the state of Texas and saying like, oh, they
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: would have got another puppy last week. And they did not.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: They commented before I came back on and prefaced that
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: that would have been the wifey.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Not me. That would have been the wifey. But didn't
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: the wifey bring up the idea of sending them down
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: to Texas?
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: So ain't no way she would have went back and
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: got herself another puppy.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Hey, listen, Willie, see? That's what I'm talking about. That's
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: what I've been screaming. How has it been going? Are
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: the dogs on vacation right now? Dude, update on the dogs. Actually,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: they are thriving in Texas. As far as being at
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: a house that they're used to with the backyard that
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: they're used to, we're just getting... FaceTime's from Grandma all
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: the time because she wants to see Scarlet, obviously. But
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: then she's also giving us updates on the dogs. And
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: there's just way more to do. There's way more life.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: There's way more wildlife. They're basically, they have a doggy door.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: They get to zip in and out all day. They're
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: not behind some baby gate all day. So it has
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: been really good of cementing in my mind of, Dude,
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: the dogs are just absolutely ripping at Gammy's house. They're
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: allowed to sleep in the bed at Gammy's house. They
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: can run in and out of the doors. There's possums
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: on the telephone wires that Wrigley loves to bark at
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: all throughout the night.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: So it was the right move. It was the right move.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: And good for them. Like they, they, they went to
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: a Superbowl team. You know what I mean? They got
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: out of their shit situation and now they're thriving. Yes. Like, man,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I bet coach misses us right now, but we are
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: way better off out here.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Way better off. And the dude, the human food that
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: they're getting, they don't get human food with us. I
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: know Gabby's sneaking some human food to him.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: What the hell?
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: We've been missing out on this shit. What a dog,
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: what a dog shit place we were at the time before.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: We should have been at Jill's suck. We should have
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: been at Candy's the whole time. So they're loving it.

  Speaker 2: more on scarlet in the mornings scarlet and in the
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: evenings jill in the mornings jill in the evenings.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Just say it one of the best decisions you ever
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: made in your life was getting rid of your.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Dogs yeah but can i tell you a dad loss
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: just say that though oh best decision i've ever truly
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: best decision i've ever made as a father was sending
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: the dogs.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: To grandma's house make them send in their eye turn
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: in their ipad you gotta cut them loose there's 31
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: other teams out there there's one i know that's gonna
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: love you And now they're getting rings, probably back-to-back rings.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: And this is actually a massive dad loss underneath Scarlett's
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: high chair at the end of meals. I didn't realize
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: the work that old Wrigley boy was putting in. I
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: truly did not. The amount I have to clean up
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: now after every single meal is, it's a daunting task.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, no, that's crazy. That's crazy.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Dog can eat.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: You remember last week how you kind of derailed the
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: podcast with the news of old buddy getting paralyzed from
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: diving in the pool?
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: You kind of put a weird error in the building?
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: We didn't really know how to laugh anymore after that? Yes. Well,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: we had somebody, Mason Hale.
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: Right in.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: What's up, boys? This is Mason from Choctaw, Oklahoma. I
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: had to immediately pause the pod to write this to
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: tell y'all after hearing y'all talk about diving into pools.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: A year and a half ago, he's on family vacation.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: He had a couple cold ones, threw them back, thought
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: it was a smart idea to add a few tequila
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: shots in the mix while he's in the pool. One
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: thing led to another, and he decided to playfully dive
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: into this little pool. Mind you, it's only about five
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: and a half feet deep. It was more of an
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: angled dive instead of a head first, but it's still,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: he hit his head at the bottom of the pool. Thankfully,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: no major issues or concussion, but he scraped his forehead.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: He sent in a little photo and basically got scalped.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. He can't be drinking and diving. Nah,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: he can't. He can't be drinking and diving. Especially in
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: the shallow end. Yeah, especially in the shallow end.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: That derailment helped anybody out there.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: What is scalping, too? That's when you're like, oh, my God. Well, actually,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: I have a dad hack.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Don't drink cold ones and just dive into the shallow
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: end of a pool. I think that's a good dad hack.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: It's a good dad hack.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Good dad hack. Don't drink a few cold ones and
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: go diving into the shallow. Don't be doing that shit.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Do a gainer. That's way better.
• 17:37

  Speaker 2: you by Lucy. And guys, we talk about Lucy all
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: the time. We talk about how much we love Lucy.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: We talk about how much we use Lucy. But I've
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: been only talking about these products uh, 12 milligram espresso,
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: because that is my speed. I want to tell you
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: about some other speeds that Lucy, uh, is bringing. And
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: that's our Lucy breakers. And the guys, they got all
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: these different flavors.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: They got mint.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: We got apple cider right here. We got berry citrus
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: right here.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Uh, these are an eight.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Usually when I do my breakers, I do eight milligram.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: I know that they feature, uh, some lower milligrams, I
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: believe four, um, Is how they do it. But love
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: these breakers. Whenever I'm putting a Lucy in or just
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: kind of sitting there in the past when I use
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: different products, I would sit there and I'd ask myself,
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: why does the flavor go away so quickly? Like, I
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: feel like this experience of a nicotine pouch should be
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: something that's a bit more long lasting.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Lucy has answered the bell.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: They have introduced this breaker system where there's actually a
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: flavor pod inside of the pouch that you can break
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: open and You can break it open at the very beginning.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: I know a couple of users that do that. Will
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Compton being one of them. I myself, I'll use it
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: for probably 10, 15 minutes. That's then when I do
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: the breaker. You can break it at any point. But
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: it's just that extra flavor, juice, kick that we all
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: know and love.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: So, Lucy, are they the big guys? No, they're the
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: small guys.
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: They're the guys just like you and me, American made,

• 20:59
  Speaker 2: this product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Buddy, even last night, and I realize, too, I'm starting
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: to get a little bit more impatient with the whining
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: to where it's just like, hey, I just look at her.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Stop whining. To which I know it's almost going to
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: be a domino effect that it's going to make her
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: even sadder because now that has matted her.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: And I don't know what to do. Because you got
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: to toughen up, man.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Like last night we had lasagna, pasta, meat sauce,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: and cheese. And she loves pasta.
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Scotty isn't saying a word. Usually it's just chaos the
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: whole time at dinner. You're trying to get them to eat.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Mom and dad are usually finished first. We're trying to
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: play games to get them both to eat. Do that
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: whole song and dance. Scotty's silent the whole time. She's
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: hand in. She eats the whole thing. She gets two
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: extra servings. Of lasagna, because she wants more. And she's
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: yelling at Dadat, more. Dadat, more.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: I got you, man. And I'm looking at Rue, I'm like,
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: she's cleaning her plate. Like, Rue, this is a meal
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: you're going to like. It's worthy of consumption.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like this isn't, we're not trying to dance around
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: and give you something different that you're like, oh, I
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: don't like this. And it's like, dude, you never tried it.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: Just try a bite and see if you like it.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: This is pasta, meat sauce, and cheese. And, bro, I
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: was so internally fed up. Like, I'm keeping it together.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: She goes to go, Mama, I want to sit by
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: you and eat. Go sit by next to Mama and eat.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: If that's what's going to get you to eat your food,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: go sit next to Mama and eat. She sits next
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: to Mama. She wants to just tell stories all the time. Hey, sweetheart, eat.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Eat your food. You're going to like that food. Look
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: at Scotty. She's on her third helping. And Rue, it's
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: like I'm getting up. Scotty gives me her plate. And
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: I just turn to Rue. I'm like, Rue, it's pasta,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: meat sauce, and cheese. And I pause and we're just,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: she's staring back at me and I'm staring at her.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: And there's a part of my brain that almost flickers
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: to start smiling the way she's kind of just like
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: staring at me. And I'm like, you like pasta, meat, sauce,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: and cheese.
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: Meat sauce.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: She's like, what are these little tomatoes? It's sauce.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: It's marinara sauce. It's what's on pizza. You love pizza.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: You love pasta. You're putting the sauce on your little
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: pasta dumpling things that we get for you.
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: You're going to love this meal. And we're both just,
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: it's like a stare off. And I'm like, you got
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: to eat it. And then I just walked back to
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: the pantry. And I'm just like, dog, I just, the
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: emotions that she's in right now. Great kid. Did she
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: eat it? Yeah, she came up. She's like, daddy, can
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: I have a cookie? And I'm like, no, you didn't
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: eat all your food. And then mama chimes in.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Hey, she pretty much ate all of it. And then
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: I look back at the plate where she almost did
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: eat all of it.
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: And I'm like.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: All right, I'm going to give you a piece of
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: this cookie, and then you're going upstairs and getting ready
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: for bed. A piece, not the whole thing. A piece. No,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: she never gets the whole cookie. Oh, okay, good, good.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: It's a piece. Yeah, yeah. Give me a piece. She
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: eats into my pajamas, PJs, your little ass upstairs. I also...
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: But I find myself getting just more frustrated with the
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: emotions of this four-year-old. Yeah, once you have it, I guess,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: with two.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: I worry that they might, like, what happens when it
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: starts multiplying on top of each other? Because in that moment,
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: you had Scottzilla that you could really celebrate there and
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: be like, Scottzilla is cleaning the plate. But what happens
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: when they both start whining? Does that happen? Dad's out there.
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: When they both start going. Does it compile? Has to. Yeah,
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: it does. Like, I'm just like, hey, stop. And then
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: usually I have to focus on Rue because this is like, Scottie's,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: she's one.
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: So it's like, I can't sit there and try and
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: talk rationally to Scottie yet. Usually Scottie's upset about something.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: You got to work with her a little bit differently
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: because she's one. Rue, I almost put the expectation that
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: you know better, but I have to put, when I'm like, hey, stop.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: And it might make Rue stop whining for a second
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: to hear what I'm saying, whereas Scottie's going to continue
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: to cry because she's upset about something. But then I
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: have to just break down to Rue how Scottie's one
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: And if it's something that's in Rue's favor, hey, I'm
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: going to get you this, whatever it is, because I
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: understand that Scotty is annoying the hell out of you.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: But I don't know. I have to just compartmentalize and
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: work on one at a time. I have to get
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Rue calm. That's all I have to do first. Once
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: I get Rue calm, hey, just patience with Dada. Dada,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: trust me, I got your back. Let me handle Scotty.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: I'll look at Scotty. Scotty, whenever this gets done, we
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: got to get it to Rue, so that way Rue
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: hears me say it. Then I focus solely on Scotty,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: go and take her out of the room, calm her down.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: But yeah, it compiles.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: You have three years to get Rue officially on your
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: side because that's when Scottzilla is going to hit the
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: four mark.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: And once you have Rue fully on your side, seven
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: or eight year old Rue, now we're operating.
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Because Scotty, now she can get into the cabinet stuff with,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: she loves grabbing the board games now. It's like, buddy,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to sit here and play Candyland with you.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: You're just going to knock over all the cards and
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: you're not even going to move the pieces the right way.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: You're still goo goo gaga. Like you don't get it.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: You're not fun yet. I know you want to play
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: this game. You don't know how to play this game yet.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: She's got a share sparkle unicorns. I'm playing that with
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: him before mom comes home yesterday. It's a three, three
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: man weave on share sparkle unicorns. I got to keep
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: all the gems away from Scotty.
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Cause you got to reach in and get a gym
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: and put them on the share sparkle unicorns. And I'm like, Hey,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: it's Rue's turn to roll the dice. Rue rolls the
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: dice and goes. She puts her hand in the bag,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: does all that stuff. Scotty tries to take the bag. No, no, Scotty,
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: it's not your turn yet. Scotty's now the troll in
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: the game. Scotty is the troll in the game. Then
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: if Scotty's trying to roll the dice, she wants to
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: roll the dice.
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: So she has to take, let me see here. What
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: can I grab? What do you got? Oh, I'll use
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: this lollipop. she'll like take the dice and she sees
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: how we'll like jiggle it and roll it on the table.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: She like takes the dice and takes it and she's
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: got to like smash it in her hand. So that
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: way she can like have her hand. And then she
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: like slowly puts her hand over the table and she's
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: just like, Oh, two!
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: She's got to draw two. It only, it only like
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: turns over one time.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: And the die looks so big in her hand. She's
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: like holding.
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: It.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: That's incredible.
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: I was going to say to Sherm's point about when
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: Scotty gets older and I don't mean to be like
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: a harbor of bad news, but I'm pretty sure the
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: picky eating stage gets worse from like six to 10.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: The what eating stage? Like a picky eater. Oh, picky.
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: I feel like my own experience and everyone I know,
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: it's like, as you get older, all of a sudden
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: there's foods that you used to eat that you hate now.
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: And it gets really bad from like, at least I
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: was super bad from like five to maybe 10. I
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: think my parents said I was like, that was the
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: worst stretch where all of a sudden stuff I would
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: eat all the time. I was getting really weird about
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: certain things.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Rue's a picky eater and she's headstrong too. Like it's,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: I also, she's tough. This morning she told me she
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: don't like carrots anymore. I.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: I just, I have to shout out, this is one
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: of my favorite follow-ups, because Deke and I actually laughed
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: about this after we recorded last week's episode of when
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Chef was spilling his soul.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: While we were doing the ice cream floats.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: And mid-Chef spilling his soul, Gary Lloyd, author, wrote, Will said,
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: ice cream.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Interesting. Your brain was on the ice cream.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God, this float. That float is amazing. Hey,
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: I love what you said. This, hey, this lollipop float.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Chef, good job. Oh, by the way.
• 28:53

  Speaker 1: It went very well.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: Some are saying that I completely redeemed myself for Mother's Day.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: Some say I have room to improve. Who's saying you
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: have room to improve?
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Myself. Myself.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: Not everything came to fruition like I wanted it to,
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: but I felt like I did a way better job
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: of celebrating Jill's slash Um, it was just fun celebrating
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: Jill all weekend. We did two birthday dinners, one with
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: Scarlett and then one date night birthday dinner. So we
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: did like the bit more, uh, financially easier to do
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: a B day dinner with Scarlett and, uh, got to
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: celebrate her twice. And, um, then we went to, uh,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: pastis here in Nashville, the French restaurant.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: How was it?
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: Dude, it was really good. Have you been there, Deke, Pastis?
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Not yet, but I've heard good things. Where's it at? Sorry,
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: did I say Green Hills? It's in Wedgwood, Houston. It's
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: not in Green Hills.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: Oh, is that the one that's by Soho? Possibly. I
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: don't know where Soho is. Like kind of on that
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: like main woods with Houston. Oh, yeah. I mean, it's
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: on that street. It's part of that new build, all
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: that new stuff there.
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: Like that street is unbelievable. I think I've eaten there.
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: At Posse's?
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: It is good, yeah. Yeah, dude.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: It was, oh.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: I think. It was very good. There's a new Italian spot. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: We've ripped there. It is a good spot. It was great.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: Julie Bean loved it.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: We never really do the bottle of wine thing at dinner, but.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: We bought a bottle of wine.
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you did.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: Which was awesome. We kept the bottle.
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: We're going to do like a little candle in it
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: and let the wax melt down and stuff so it
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: looks all cool. And then I had like a little
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: thing set up for on the kitchen counter because she
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: had done that before. for me for Father's Day. And
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: it did make me really like feel special and celebrated.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: And so I wanted Jilly Bean to feel the same way.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: And we had like a little poster made and gave
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: Scarlett a marker. And she did all of her stuff
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: on there. And it said like, happy birthday from both
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: of us. But it was good, dude.
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: Good.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: It's good to get to celebrate wifey, baby mama. My
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: wifey got to celebrate her boy.
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: Birthday went really well. Got to wake up in the morning. Um,
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: to the kiddos, my wife made me this, uh, iced
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: Americano and she made like this cold foam to put
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: on top. It was phenomenal. This, uh, the fat of
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: coconut milk, a little bit of whole milk and a
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: little bit of maple syrup frothed up into a cold foam.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Oh my God. Delivered that. They each had a card
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: for me.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: Baru.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: Rue and Scotty. They want to give you the card.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: Paris probably knows. They want to give you the card,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: but they don't want you to read the card. They
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: want to. Dada, you got to open. I got you. Dada, no, here,
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: let me show you. Sweetheart, let Dada, this is your
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: gift to Dada. You just got to give it to
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: me and let Dada figure it out. They want to
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: read you the card. They want to point at everything
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: they're doing on it, which was sweet and awesome. Having
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: a little snuggle wrestling match, giving them kisses as they're
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: telling me happy birthday. Had a little cake. So funny,
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Charles was like, I know you love, I have this
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: whole 30 biscuits and gravy that I do, but I
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: had to make it since I'm the one who makes it.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: But Charles took the kiddos to Rue's Ballet so that
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: way I could just have some quiet time. I'm just
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: chefing it up in the kitchen. I got college game
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: day on and make some biscuits and gravy. We had
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: a little cake that they came out. The kiddos were
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: singing happy birthday to me. Rue, Charles tells me after
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: the fact, that Rue felt really bad for me on
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: the way home. Because she was wondering, why doesn't Dada,
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: our friend's not coming over for his birthday?
• 37:37
  Speaker 7: I know.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: And she was really concerned about me being at home
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: by myself. Yeah. And we're going to go home and
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: have brunch with Dada and have a cake, but where
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: are his friends? And Charles trying to tell her that like, Dada,
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: this is what Dada prefers is to be a lone dog. Yeah.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: He doesn't like a lot of people all the time. Yeah. Yeah.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: But she's like, yeah, but. It's his birthday. It's his party.
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: And we're the only ones showing up for his party.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: So sweet.
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: I know. And I was like, well, did you make
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: her feel better by the time you got home? She's like, yeah,
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: but you could just tell. She was just like, didn't
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: make sense to her that nobody's coming over.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: She's like being extra. I'm wondering why she's being so
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: special to me when she got home. She just wanted
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: me to play. Hey, let's play a game.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: Honey, you may need to pull aside Rue and tell
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: her that you have friends because she's worried.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: She was worried.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: I would have photos of said friends. I would show
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: her pictures because she wasn't believing.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: Me in the car. She might actually be worried about
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: me this morning when we were having breakfast. Like, Scotty's
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: standing on her stepstool to eat. Rue sits in her
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: place in the corner at the island. Mama's sitting next
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: to Rue. There's a couple things just on the island
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: where I just didn't sit next to Charo. I sat
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: on the other corner of the island. So I'm just
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: kind of sitting solo once the eggs and everything get made.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: And Charles makes the comment, oh, you didn't want to
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: sit next to us? I'm like, oh, a couple things.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: A couple things were in the spot, so I just
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: figured I'd just sit here. A couple minutes later, Rue
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: makes her way over to sit by me at the
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: corner of the island. And I'm thinking in my head,
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: based on what my wife told me the other night,
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: I'm like, is Rue just concerned that Dada doesn't have
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: anybody that loves him? She's like, Dada, I'll sit next
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: to you. I'm like, oh, I appreciate it, sweetheart.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's pity now.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Maybe milk that, though. You know what I'm saying? You
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: know dad is feeling alone.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: Because it's always kind of with the kids, like they're
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: doing something to get something.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: But now, like, you're getting some true emotional support from
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: your daughter.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Where's that emotional support when she won't finish her plate? Amen, Jeff.
• 39:48
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: She doesn't have her hand out at all other than
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: to give Dada a hug. Sweetie, you know why Dada
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: doesn't have friends? My friends told me. They'll start coming
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: over when you start eating your dinner.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: They said I'm a bad Dada because my sweet, precious
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: little angel girls, they don't finish their dinner.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: But why? You make friends when their kids eat their dinner.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: That's just how it goes. When you're a dada, of course.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: That's life.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: That's like a dada thing. And start calling people like
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: in front of her and be like, so excited to
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: talk to Uncle Sherman. Let's call Uncle Sherman and let's
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: tell him a funny story.
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: Blah, blah, blah.
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: Put it on speakerphone. Let her hear it. Hear it.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: Let it hit voicemail. Oh, he must be busy. Have
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: you sent me a text when you don't answer the call?
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: Not answering unless we're eating dinner. Did Rue finish her plate? No,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: she didn't tonight. Blah, blah. We'll be seeing you. Have
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: a good night. Bro, I might pull that move. That
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: might work.
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: It might.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that that can work. I think that
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: that'll work. We'll give it a trial run for next
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: week's episode. Let's do it. A dad act. We'll just
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: create our own dad act. That's a good dad act.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: That's your daughter. Your dad has no friends. Uncle Sherman
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: doesn't want to talk to you? Oh, he just sent
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: me a message. Says he'll answer when you eat your dinner.
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: But I get it.
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's going to be kind of hard for
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: you to finish your dinner, right? He says as soon
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: as you clean your plate, we'll get on the phone.
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: You think you could do it?
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah. I could eat it. Oh, that's a
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: dad act. Am I worried?
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: Maybe. Maybe.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: Time will tell. Was that your crack a cold one,
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: by the way, your birthday? That, and also just a
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: subtle one, subtle crack a cold one. All of this
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: stuff that I'm complaining about that I know other parents
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: do with the young kiddos that are very frustrated. Dude,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: I feel like your kids are the only humans on
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: earth that you can be frustrated. Let's just say it's
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: a full day of frustration, a full day of whining,
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: a full day of like, You and mom, you've been
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: in the trenches and it's like you finally get them
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: down and you're like, oh, thank God. I feel like
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: your kids are the only humans on the planet to
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: where when I walk into my closet to change, to
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: get into shorts, to get in something comfortable, where I
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: look at the photos I have with them up with
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: their smiles and everything else. And then instantly it puts
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: a smile on your face. That you like, you know,
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: you miss them or you're like, God, I just love
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: them so much. They're the only humans that can just
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: change your mood in an instant. God, that's so true.
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: The amount of times that I look at that little
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: nanite cam, like once we put Scarlett down and.
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: I just want to go wake her up.
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: Even though I know that that's the worst thing I
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: could possibly do in that moment.
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: We had a really hard day with her. She was teething.
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: I just want one last little smile or hug or
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: like kiss.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: That's so true, dude. I was thinking about that last
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: night because we didn't have a tough bedtime, but I
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: knew I was very frustrated with her not eating the pasta,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: meat sauce and cheese. And when I was seeing that
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: we did a little photo booth at Eleanor Market a
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: couple weekends ago. So I have the little photo thing
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: printed out. And I see me like kissing her on
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: the cheek and she's smiling and I just see the
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: photo and I just have a smile on my face
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: and I just thought to myself, I just had a tough,
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: like she can be so frustrating sometimes.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: And our kids might be the only humans on earth
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: that can snap us out of whatever we're feeling and
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: put a smile on our face at the end of
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: the day. I'm not saying like our wives or our
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: best friends can't, but you might like you say you
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: might see a photo with my wife, but we might
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: be at arms about something going on. So I see
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: the photo and I'm like, oh man, we got to,
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: you know, we got to figure this out. But you're
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: thinking of whatever dilemma that you might be in.
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: But you see your kiddos in a family photo or something.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: You're just like, oh God, I'm so lucky.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: It's such a wild concept to then like apply that
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: to anything outside of you and your child.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: Like you're a diehard Bills fan.
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: You're in the AFC championship. Josh Allen fumbles. You're not
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: going to the Super Bowl. You're probably really pissed at Josh.
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: But then you see like a picture of Josh Allen
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: on Instagram. All of a sudden you're like, Man, that's wild, dude.
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: I just can't. I can't even be mad at it.
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? That doesn't even make sense. No,
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, that kind of does it. If he has
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: a bad game. That makes sense.
• 44:40
  Speaker 5: Kat sent me a video this morning and said, we
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: like Josh Allen, right? And it was him with the
• 44:43
  Speaker 5: big hat on just going.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: I guess you know what Josh Allen might be the
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: worst example of that now that I think about it
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: but it is it's like we love him but if
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: he's lost like three in a row and thrown six
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: picks and now they're second in the division like you
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: might look like man we need him to pick his
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: shit up But if your kiddo is on a three-day
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: losing streak with massive turnovers, you see a photo of
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: them at the end of the day and you're like,
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: oh God.
• 45:12
  Speaker 4: I'm lucky.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: But they're the best.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: I'm lucky to have them. Also, a little dad hack
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: that I wanted to throw in there before we do call-ins.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Sticky toys in the bath.
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know what your bath time situation looks like,
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen like y'all's bath time
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: set up.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: We got like a basket in the corner with a
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: bunch of toys, like the foam letters, duckies and shit
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: that you can play with. God, those are so, yes.
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: And then you're talking about like the suction ones that
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: are against the bathtub.
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: Dude, we got some for Scarlett. They're just like little
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: Amazon cheapy. ones that you can stick onto the wall
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: and you pour the water into it and it's like
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: a flower that will then bud or like a giraffe's
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: head will like come out and start going like that
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: when you pour the water into it. And Scarlett just
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: stands there now. She doesn't even sit in her bath.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: She like stands just doing that, which is kind of
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: optimal for bath time cleaning.
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: Makes it really easy. That's a good dad hack. I
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: have one here from Patrick Carter. for a dad hack
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: got a hack for college football Saturdays and found it
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: by accident Saturday mornings I wake up start a load
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: of laundry then take off for my boys to rip
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: some flag football by the time I'm back the laundry
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: is done so once you're all set up for that
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: first game to kick off you grab the laundry and
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: start folding normally I'm not halfway through the first game
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: when wifey comes in and says is this what we're
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: gonna do all day but not anymore She walks in
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: and sees me folding that laundry and doesn't say a word.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: The trick is you can't fold too fast. Pace yourself. Also,
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: got to make sure you keep the rotation of machines
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: going so you don't run out. My nine-year-old son, Bear,
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: loves college football. My wife is not nearly as pissed
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: that I'm hitting nine hours of ball and the laundry
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: gets done. Love you guys in the pod. Keep up
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: the awesome work. Patty C.
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: P.S. Willie.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: I don't cut my grass either. That shit sucks. That's
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: what the kids are for. Builds character. Hey, there we go.
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: There's multiple dad hacks in that, by the way. Yeah.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: I was just about to say cutting, you know, mowing
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: your yard. You get a little.
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: Arm attachment for your push mower and you can have
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: YouTube TV going. Make sure you cook some big old dinner,
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: lots of plates, lots of pans, use all the dishware possible.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: Then you can do some dishes. You're in the kitchen,
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: you're doing dishes, but you're watching the game. Just create
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: all these tasks that you have to do. Just sit
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: around and knock them out.
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: Dishes are a sneaky move. I'm big on hitting the
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: dishes after dinner. And I just pick up on it
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: as I'm doing it, but I felt myself gravitating toward
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: hitting the dishes.
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: Because then it's like finishing up dinner time or running
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: around with the kiddos. They love doing dance parties. Like
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: I like dancing, but not every night. You know what
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: I mean? What is the deal with that? I only
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: got so many moves in the arsenal. Yeah. And you
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: can only listen to Let It Go so many times.
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: Dude, we got this Italian banger that we rip every night.
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: The Chi Chi Cha Cha song. That was the one
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: where when we were in Italy, it's got the mascots
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: on the stage. And I kind of just show up
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: my face like, what the hell is going on here?
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: But they love that song. I love that song.
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: And that one's still ripping to this day.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And the Zootopia one. There's a Zootopia song that
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: is a banger that we rip. But they love dance parties.
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: But you kind of get some alone time here just
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: hitting the dishes. Gotta hit the dishes. And I lock it.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: That's why I lock in with my audio books is
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: when I'm mowing or cooking. doing dishes or something where
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: I'm just like by myself, mopping, mopping's a good one. Um,
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: you brought up something though that made me think, oh, Frozen. Dude,
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: I think we've watched Frozen every single day in my
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: house for the last like three months straight.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: I think it's, it's played in my house every single day.
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: Is that normal?
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: Because Jill said Scarlett loves the movie Frozen look at
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: her honey and it's true every single day every single
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: night when we do our little bedtime routine we'll just
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: have Frozen on in the background but I'm worried is
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: that going to affect her mentally if she's just watching
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: the same movie over and over and over again.
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: It's a good question.
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know how much screen time she's getting throughout
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: the day. And then I'm not going to be the
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: parent that's like, hey, they shouldn't be doing that much
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: screen time. Yeah. You know what I mean? I'm not
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: trying to sit up here. I'm not trying to sit
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: on some high horse and talk about screen time. I'll
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: tell you what we do, and then it's like, you
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like, we do the coupons and
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: everything else. Yeah. What you're going to come to, because
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: Scotty's not there yet, but it's that age, because Rue
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: was big on Frozen. They'll be pissed about watching anything else.
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: Damn.
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: I knew it. So you'll be cornered into something until
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: you just show them kind of the world that there's
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: a Rolodex. Like movie night is always something different. We
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: haven't watched Frozen in a while. We'll probably get to
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: it because I want Scotty to sit still during a movie.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: And we've hit the Disney Frozen books at nighttime.
• 50:20
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: For Scotty that she loves. But Rue was very much cornered.
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: She had us cornered at all times for Frozen. And
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: she would be pissed if we watched anything else. Scarlett's
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: not at the age yet where she can do all
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: the talking and snap back at you yet. Yeah, yeah.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: How old is Scarlett again? A year and three months. Yeah,
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: so Ash, yeah, I mean, you're getting closer. Like, once
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: you get in that 16, 22-month range, like, Scottie isn't
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: stuck on something yet. Rue, at that age of Scottie,
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: she would just want Frozen. And then I want to
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: say it was like How to Train Your Dragon was
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: kind of the first, maybe I could be talking out
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: of my ass here. Or Princesses, like a different princess
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: is what got her, got us to experiment outside of Frozen.
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: But you get them zoned in on one movie, like
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: one world, they're all about that world. They don't make
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: Frozen anymore. That might be... Oh, yeah.
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: They don't make frozen eggs. They don't. Chef, I didn't even...
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: Forgot about the dad hack a couple weeks ago. Here's
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: the Jungle Book. Instead, they make this one now. They
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: don't make... Oh, they make that one now.
• 51:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, here's a Little Giants because it's football Saturday right now.
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: Or Cinderella.
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: I may need Uncle Chef's help and I can do
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: two dad hacks in one. We can call Uncle Chef...
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: and uncle chef could deliver the bad news of they
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: don't make frozen what frozen's not working on your tv
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: i'm in as long as i could do like a
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: big time hollywood producer voice i'm like.
• 51:42
  Speaker 3: Nah kid that's sippish that ship has sailed i just.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: We may have to facetime you then you can have
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: a cigar in your mouth.
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: Yes yes like a maybe a suit or like a robe.
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: Honey this is this is uncle chef our disney exec
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: friend You know Uncle Chef. He's a Disney executive.
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: What's up, kid?
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: Ah, hurry up. Oh, my gosh.
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: I have another dad hack here. Get an individual first
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: aid kit. This comes from Mitchell Benson 2689. get individual
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: first aid kit for both vehicles. Most likely you'll always
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: be close to one of those instead of searching for
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: a store.
• 52:29
  Speaker 4: Amen.
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: And then Mitchell Vincent also wrote in and said, boys,
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: the shoes. Talk about a problem that needs to be fixed.
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: My 17 month old daughter won't stop curling her damn toes.
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: Nine times out of 10, we just end up in
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: Crocs before everyone knows. is over it after 10 tries
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: and a full meltdown. Little bit of a hack. We
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: did figure out though, that has helped tremendously. If they
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: have socks on, pinch the top of the socks near
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: their ankle and pull it up towards their knees with
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: one hand and put the shoe on with the other hand.
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: keeps their toes straighter, and the socks slides a little
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: bit easier.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: Good dad hack. Good dad, double dad hack. Double dad hack.
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: And people on the first aid, they might be like, oh,
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: Captain Obvious have a first aid. I'm telling you, if
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: you're a new dad, sometimes you don't know until the
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: moment's happened. It absolutely seems obvious. I don't have one.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: But then you're out in Florida driving around looking for
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: a first aid kit because your little one cut her
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: eye by falling on the table. Oh, I forgot about that.
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: That's where that dad hat comes in is Root busted
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: her eye open and I'm out driving to a CVS
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: or a Walgreens to find a first aid for the
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: butterfly band-aids. And it is, you're sitting there like, yeah,
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: why don't we have a first aid? How dumb are we?
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: It seems obvious, but any new dads that might be
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: rocking right now that aren't already on top of that,
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: it's kind of like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. It does
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: seem like an obvious thing.
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: That is an obvious. That might even be a this
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: week I need to get that done. Because I do
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: not have a first aid. Jill has a ton of
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: stuff at our house, but we don't have anything in
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: the car.
• 54:07
  Speaker 4: Right. Mobile.
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: Affordable.
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: Shout outs? Shout outs. Dude, my first shout out is
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: just going to go to my wife. Phenomenal birthday. There's
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: part of my wife, she was just asking me kind
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: of throughout the day, is this your dream life? Like,
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: is this what you, cause she felt like there's just
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: not enough birthday. Like we did a little, we went to, uh,
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: we went to South hall and got away on Saturday.
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: Like after we did the whole birthday brunch and everything else,
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: the in-laws came over to watch the kids, watch the house,
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: do bedtimes, all that stuff. Charlie and I got out
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: of Dodge early afternoon on Saturday. We got in the
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: room and I'm like, I laid on the bed. I
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: flipped on the multi-view YouTube TV, had this four screens
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: going with college football. And she's just making sure like,
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: are we doing what you want to do? And I'm like, sweetheart,
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: if I could just watch ball all day, like this
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: is the life she's reading a book. She's taking a nap.
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: She's getting re-energized, but she's like concerned that there wasn't
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: enough birthday. And I'm like this sweetheart, you know, this
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: is it.
• 55:08
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: Just uninterrupted got ball on. I'm in the group chats
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: with the boys being nasty to each other, talking some shit,
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: just watching ball. Now the one caveat that she was
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: like kicking herself for is our dinner reservation was at
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: seven o'clock. Because I kind of looked at her like,
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: can we kick it up to five? We weren't able
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: to kick it up to five, but I'm like, it's,
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: you know, who plays at night? And I'm like, LSU
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: Ole Miss. Not only that, Huskers play at 6 p.m.
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: It's a big game. No, it's not the biggest. It's
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: North Dakota. But you know I love watching the Scurs.
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: Pack the old Nebraska shirt. Like it's the most important
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: slate of the day. You got Florida Auburn. You got
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: Ole Miss LSU. Games got delayed. Games got delayed. Yeah,
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: games were getting delayed. And we're in prime time. She's like, well,
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: we'll see if the restaurant has a TV. And I'm like,
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: I don't think it does, but let's hope. Cause I
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: don't want to be the guy sitting there on my phone.
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: Like while we're on a date, I know it's my birthday.
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: I can do whatever I want. It is your birthday.
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: It is your birthday. She was making that known.
• 56:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: She's like, if not, you can, we can have the
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: phone out and you can watch. I was like, all right.
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: You know, we've been to this restaurant before January. It's
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: at South hall and we go and sit down and
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: we're kind of in the booth. You know how you
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: have like the long booth and they have like a
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: tabletop for two. Yes. Down the booth or in the middle,
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: we're in a middle one. So there's a couple, there's
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: dates happening on each side of us. Yeah. So I
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: don't want to seem like the asshole where I just
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: got my phone out. I did.
• 56:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: But then you feel like you're getting judged because you're
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: on a date with wifey. She's sitting across and I
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: got YouTube TV out on the side. Other guys locked
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: in with their date. Got the sound down, but I
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: got LSU Ole Miss on. I got kind of, you know,
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: the four screen at a time going on the phone,
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: but it's a little too small. So I got LSU
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: Ole Miss because I wanted to watch that one. Checking
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: in on the Scurs, checking in on Florida Auburn. But
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: I had to watch LSU Ole Miss. I got a
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: dad hack for you. A simple one. A birthday boy pin.
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: You put the birthday boy pin on the shirt. That's
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: a good point. Because there was some like, I kind
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: of feel like an asshole doing this. And you're not.
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: It's your birthday.
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: You're the birthday boy. You get your big old, get
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: a big one so they can read it real easily.
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: So when they're sitting there, they're going, look at this dickhead, dude.
• 57:23
  Speaker 2: Because my wife, she was trying to make me feel comfortable.
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: She's like, no TV is in here. And I'm like, yeah,
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: the waiter came over, kind of took our drink order.
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: She's like, what are you thinking about right now? I'm like,
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking about LSU Ole Miss. Like what's happening? Like
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: Ole Miss is up right now. Like this could be
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: a throttling with Lane Kiffin coming to town. She's like,
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: pull it out on your phone. I'm like, dude, we
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: got dates on each side of us. She's like, it's
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: your birthday. You can do whatever you want. As long
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: as you say so.
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: And I kind of maneuver it to where it's like,
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: you know, phone's right here, but I maneuver it sideways.
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: So it seems like my wife's involved on the game.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: She loves the ball as much as you. She wanted
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: to watch.
• 57:57
  Speaker 2: Because some people, they can't mind their own business. There's
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: probably some couple in that restaurant that the guy's just
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: fighting himself to go, I got to.
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: Go say something. I heard an older gentleman next to
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: me talking about LSU Ole Miss. I'm like, Ole Miss
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: is up right now. Hey, inadvertently, the guy's sitting.
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: based on the phone side might have been relieved and
• 58:17
  Speaker 3: snuck a couple of peeks in and goes, oh my God,
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: this guy pulled out the phone. I can't do that
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: right now. Thank God this other guy had the nuts
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: to pull the phone out and put it on.
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: Now I can peek. The birthday pin is a great
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: call because then when the waiter would come over, even
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: the waiter like standing over and talking about the specials
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: and I got, the screen is playing like while I'm
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: looking up at him and I see him glance down
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: at it a couple of times. But even that feeling
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: of like, I just want to tell him, hey, it's
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: my birthday. I'm watching some balls. Some restaurants will even
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: tell you, hey, no phones.
• 58:46
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: You put it away.
• 58:47
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: But they see that birthday boy pin, they go, oh,
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: so sorry, sir. Sorry for interrupting.
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: Happy birthday, boy.
• 58:53
  Speaker 4: I like that, dude.
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: It could work. But shout out to my wife. Shout
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: out to my wife. She crushed it on my birthday.
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: Got some good sleep. Got the coupons. Couple coupons. Rocking
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: and roaring shockwave. Put a bow on.
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: Hey did y'all also y'all hit the um i heard
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: that they have like really good massage stuff there too
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: no we didn't hit like a massage you just got
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: kind of like a spot like a day pass where
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: we could access the tubs the saunas everything else yeah
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: we had that for the next jill jill's putting that
• 59:24
  Speaker 2: in my ear for a while that's why i knew
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: what south hall was When you initially told me about it.
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: I got to make that happen. Because I'm thinking, am
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: I putting enough time into wifey? Because I am so
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: engaged with football the whole time. She had her Kindle out.
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: She's reading. Yeah. She's reading like the whole time. But
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: part of you is like, I know it's kind of
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: us doing a getaway. And then I'm like, I know
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: it's my birthday. So maybe she doesn't feel any type
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: of way that I'm just glued to everything football right now.
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know. You get into those zones. She made
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: me feel very comfortable about it.
• 59:54
  Speaker 4: Good.
• 59:54
  Speaker 2: Because we've been to the beach before, Jill and I, pre-Scarlet.
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: And all she wants to do on the beach is
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 2: lay out and read. And she is the happiest camper
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: in the entire world. Does not need anything from me
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: except just sit on her Kindle and read.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: That's the positive is Charlie is a massive bookworm. Yeah.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: Massive bookworm. Do we want to jump into Collins? Do
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: we have a shout out? Do we have a shout out?
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 4: I read.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: I felt like I did. There we go. Oh, you
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: read your shout out. I have a birthday shout out
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: as well. I actually didn't. I didn't read mine, but
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: you read yours because I gave my own shout out.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: I shout out my wife. She didn't write in. I
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: didn't read the shout out. So we have two shout outs.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: Got one from Daniel Taylor.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 4: Ready to go.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: Perfect.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: And I have birthday Jess Dowdy who wrote in. Jess said,
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: Dear Will and Sherman, first of all, hats off to
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: both of you for creating this amazing podcast. My husband
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: is from Tennessee and I'm from Nebraska and we met
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: in Kansas City, which has turned our home into a
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: glorious melting pot of accents and barbecue styles. We recently
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: moved to Tennessee to raise our beautiful baby girl, Coraline.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: And let me tell you, we're determined to get her
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: that sweet southern twang. She's just a few days younger
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: than Scottzilla, and we even call her Corzilla, because much
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: like Godzilla, she has the power to wreak havoc and
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: capture hearts all at once.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: Here are some pictures of the fam. Oh, I love that.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: They have a... Corzilla!
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 7: A T!
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: Corzilla T, which is... Mega hyphy. She is reaching out
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 2: to wish a happy birthday to her husband, Brandon. He's
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 2: been a faithful listener since the early days of busing.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: And it is a hardcore, hardcore for the dad's junkie.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: Some would even say sicko. His birthday is on September 25th.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 2: And let's just say he's not exactly a birthday person,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: more like a Grinch when it comes to birthdays. So
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: I thought, what better way to sprinkle some joy into
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: his day than with a little shout out from you two.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: He's the main caregiver for our daughter while I get
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: to work from home. And let's be honest, his days
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: are filled with enough toddler drama to be a reality show.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: Happy birthday, Brandon. Happy birthday, man. Happy birthday. I got
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: one here from Daniel Taylor. DT Taylor, PT Sicko from
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: Soda No. 1, and look forward to listening every week
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: here in Central Florida. The U Canes, C-A-N-E-S, Canes, Canes, Canes.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: I wanted to see if y'all boys can hit the
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: bong for my little dude, Miles Jamison's second birthday. The
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: boy's changed my life in ways I never imagined. I'm
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: so grateful for every single day that I'm given with him.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: He's absolutely built and lives in the A-gap. 40 pounds,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: 38 inches tall, and four and five T clothes. We
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: might have a future Canes offensive tackle on our hands.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: But on a serious note, love, the love, compassion, patience, presence,
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: and sense of self-worth I have discovered since becoming a
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: dad is beyond my wildest dreams. This day is badass.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: The day his badass milk team six mama delivered him,
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: my purpose, my drive, my reason became crystal clear for
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: raising this little man. I wanted to send this to
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: you guys in hopes that one day I can go
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: back and show him just how much he means to
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: me and his mommy and how much he is loved, cherished,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: and cared for. Happy birthday, Miles, baby. Love y'all, boys.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: DT Taylor. Please have a picture of that. Photos ripping
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: and rocking. Offensive tackle, maybe a three-tech. Who knows? Some
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: long arms, get your hands inside on the chest, control
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: the breastplate. That's not a four-year-old. You're telling me that's
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: not a four-year-old? Hey, look at my kid. 40 pounds.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: Look at him. 38 inches tall. Three foot two, 40 pounds, man. Monster.
• 1:03:56

• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: That's as loud as it can go. Okay. Do you
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: want me to put it in between us? Is that easier?
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Okay.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 8: Hey, guys. Taylor LeJuan here. Long-time listener, second-time caller. Just
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 8: wondering your opinion on fall weddings. No specific reason, just
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 8: the fact that today it's a little cooler in Nashville, Tennessee.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 8: And I thought to myself, man, we got Rocky Top
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 8: this weekend. We got a lot of fun stuff going on.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 8: It would just be crazy if someone had a fall
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 8: wedding taking place. So we'd love to know your guys' thoughts.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 8: And how you feel about fall weddings. And is that
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 8: good for dads? Is it not good for dads? Just
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 8: really want your unbiased opinion. Appreciate you guys.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: We couldn't hear it. That sucks. So our call in
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: there from Taylor LeJuan, father of three, got a newborn
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: girlie at home, Goldie. Shout out Taylor LeJuan. Shout out Taylor. Yeah,
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: what was it? Because we couldn't hear it over here.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: Our thoughts on fall weddings. Our thoughts on fall weddings.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: I keep glancing over at our man, Deke. I know.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 5: I think they sound lovely. Fall's the best time of
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 5: the year. I guess where I lean as a human
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 5: being with, it was Taylor.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: Taylor.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: Taylor LeJuan.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 5: Is that we have a guy here named Taylor, too,
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 5: who is supposed to be like the Jack Skellington of
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 5: Spooktober and fall and like pumpkins and things.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: Oh, no.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 5: It's an interesting take for this Taylor LeJuan, who might
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 5: be different, might be the same, to crap on the
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 5: beautifulness of love in his favorite season of the year.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 5: And it's just really good that I, who have a
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 5: wedding this weekend, and it is fall today, got ahead
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 5: of it on the show already and illustrated that my
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 5: wonderful fiance picked this date Because Tennessee had a bye
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 5: week last year and it's not the Bama game. So
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 5: all of those combined with me being from the north
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 5: and only really caring about Sundays. I just hope that
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 5: that Taylor LeJuan is not the same Taylor LeJuan next
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 5: door who's supposed to tout all things pumpkin and spice.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 5: And a little lackluster. Not even wearing a hoodie today.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 5: So if I'm hearing you clearly.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: If you're going to throw the question mark of fall
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: weddings in there, the burden it can place on the invitees.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: You also got to throw in fall spooktober festivities on
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: the weekends. Events around spooktober, events around Halloween.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess why leave the couch at all if
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 5: that's your take? It's interesting- If I see Taylor at
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 5: a pumpkin patch on a Saturday, I'm going to be like, well,
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 5: that's just different.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah. What's up with that, man? Yeah. I thought it's
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: all ball.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: It's either all or nothing apparently. So like, uh, thank
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 1: you for the call in Taylor. Thank you, Taylor.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 4: Thank you, Taylor.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: Deke, shout out wedding this weekend in the fall. Shout
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: out Deke wedding this weekend.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: Congratulations. Congratulations. Listen, I had to go to one last
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: year in the theme of Spooktober as well with my boy.
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: You got to. I got to go. Got to go
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: to a wedding. From my boy B-Rad, the biscuit, the
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: Bontair biscuit. He had one where we had to travel
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: out to wherever Sleepy Hollow is. Is that New Jersey?
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: New York.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 4: New York.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 6: New York.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 4: New York.
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: Loved it.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: Loved it. Um, it's tough. Like if I'm living in
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: my own selfish world, I would love to have zero
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: obligations other than the ones that are created with the family.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: So when people have like a fall wedding and it,
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: maybe it lands on a big weekend to where you
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: feel like you're picking and choosing between one of the two.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: And really it's just, It's not even that. You just
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: wish it was on a different date. But that's my world.
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: That's my selfish world. I understand that they have their
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: world and that's what works best for them. So you
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: need to prioritize them if you care for them in
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: your life. It's a dilemma. Selfishly, personally, it's a dilemma.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: You hope that the person on the other side, all
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: the empathy on both sides is there if you do
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: fall short. I don't know. Fall is a beautiful time
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: of year to have a fall wedding. I will say that.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: That's a serious note. I do feel like it is
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: a beautiful time of year. I agree.
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: Technically, a fall wedding haver, mine was November 18th, is
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: a beautiful time of year.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: Year for weddings.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 5: Derek yes thank you who was playing that day during
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 5: B-Red's thing the fact that you don't remember.
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: It was on a Saturday so Huskers are always playing
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 1: on Saturday yeah sure and I get that who were
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: they playing.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: We took care of business. Maybe. Maybe. I don't know
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: if we did.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 5: My point here being, if this wasn't the same weekend
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 5: that Bustin' with the Boys was going to do a
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 5: tailgate and the show, and it was Tennessee and all
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 5: those things, we would look back a year from now
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 5: and I'd be like, I don't even know who's playing.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 5: I know I'm going to remember who's playing, and I
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 5: know I'm going to call Chef after the Vols handle business,
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 5: say congratulations, now I'm going to go handle business. But
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 5: I will say, just to push back on everybody, more
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 5: games will always be played.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 4: Taylor.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: LeJuan.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 4: LeJuan.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: LeJuan. I will say I am bummed. I'm very bummed.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 5: We were really upset when we heard when everything was
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 5: kind of organized because we literally picked this weekend because
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 5: the Vols had a bye week last year. Like it
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 5: was very organized and thought. And then every week that
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 5: we kept finding out more information about the whole team
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 5: going to Knoxville, I was like, we can't get out
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 5: of this, huh? She's like, it's in two weeks. They're like, no,
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 5: we can't get out of this. Said obligations, man.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: No doubt. No doubt. Because when you go to the wedding,
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: it's a moment for the fellas to ball bust the
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: groom on you having us here during a football Saturday.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: And then you're kind of locked in arms in whatever
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: building you're in around the wedding, watching the games and
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: who Ron and everything else. Yeah. Greed. The only disagree
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: I'll give you, no one in Pittsburgh cares outside of
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 1: it being a fun game. Like no one has ties
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: like Baylor balls, Nebraska. That's not a thing for all
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: my friends. We all go, oh, I got money on
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: this game or that game, and we'll get into it.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: If we would have done this on a Sunday, nobody
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: would have came because the Steelers play Sunday. And so
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: that is like, it's a northern thing, really, from where
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: I'm at, too.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 4: No, I don't hold.
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: To me, it's like... It's like I'm busting Caleb Williams'
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: balls right now for having the straight hamstring and having
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: the theatrics that he had on the field. Because that's like,
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: if you're in the locker room, you're ball busting about
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: that stuff. Am I actually questioning his toughness and everything else? Like, no,
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: deep down, no. Like, bro, you're an NFL quarterback. Like,
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: you're in the big leagues. Like, I'm not questioning that whatsoever,
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: but you know you have a ploy to bust your
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: boy's balls about something. And it's like, I don't hold
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: anything against you, but it's a ploy. It's a moment
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: where I can kind of bust your balls whatsoever. when
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: I'm going to be there doing the wedding and also
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: watching games and getting some camaraderie with the guys that are,
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: we're all kind of bitching and complaining about like, we
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: got the games. Hey, what's going on in that game? Oh,
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: the ceremony, the ceremony, stand up, stand up. Hey, what's
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: going on in that game?
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: What is Derek doing? Then you've got to bust their
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: balls after the fact.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. I, I am sad that we are
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 2: missing it. And I do hope that it is an
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 2: awesome evening and love you.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: Love you lots. Dude, we love you. Thank you, Taylor,
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: for the call in. Thank you, Taylor. Intern Chris. Can
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: we illustrate the conversation leading up to this or do
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: you want to do that after? You can illustrate it. Yeah,
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: I think context is great.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 5: The only context, he has been texting the three of
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 5: us on the side for the story he's going to
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 5: illustrate for a little while now. And last week I
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 5: texted him, I was like, hey, anytime you call in,
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 5: text me so I can find it. Yesterday, hey, Chris,
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 5: you keep telling us you're going to call in. Text
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 5: me if you can find it. On the drive in
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 5: this morning, Chris let me know he had forgotten to
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 5: call in because he went to the bars after class.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 5: And so I really do. That doesn't sound like the
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 5: intern Chris we know. I think Chris is in a hole.
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 5: He needs us. Texas A & M goes down. I
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 5: think our buddy Chris just needs a little love right now.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 4: Goomberay.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 2: Intern chris intern chris and of course uh our call-ins
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 2: are presented by gravely let's hop into our call-in this week.
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 7: Will sherb chef deke hi it's uh chris um your
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 7: intern um I don't even know what I would call it.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 4: I guess this could be like catching up with Chris,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 4: you know.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 6: But it's been, you know, a tumultuous month since school
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 6: started for my senior year.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 4: And when I say that, I mean.
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 6: Olipop has saved my life recently. And I figured it
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 6: would be no better way than to call you about it.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 6: But to summarize, I was having some bad stomach issues
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 6: on Wednesday.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 6: Horrible, horrible, horrible.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 4: Tried everything.
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 6: Tried all the remedies they recommend. And then it was
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 6: leading up to the football game on Saturday. And I
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 6: worked the game on Saturday. It was like wireless camera.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 4: I walk around the stadium.
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 6: And the turf, like, around the stadium was 167 degrees.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 6: And let me just tell you, I wasn't able to
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 6: hold many things inside myself, if you get what I mean.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 4: And it was going to be tough. And, well, Olipop
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 4: saved me.
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 6: I went there on Friday, and I was able– I
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 6: just downed four Dr. Feelgood Olipops in a row because
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 6: it said doctor on them. And, man, I was able
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 6: to flush out my system before the game Saturday, and
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 6: I felt great.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 4: So, Olipop.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 6: Olipop genuinely– I mean, that thing saved my life.
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 4: So, for real. So, if anyone– you know, people in college,
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 4: they focus on a lot of drinks. But Olipop, man–
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 4: that should be the drink that goes there. And then,
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 4: you know, just kind of chilling.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 6: In college now, but I want to ask y'all, is
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 6: there anything I should do for my senior year that
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 6: you would recommend that I go out and try or
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 6: something that you may regret that you didn't do in
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 6: college that maybe I should go do? Is there a
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 6: challenge you have for me? that's kind of where I'm
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 6: at right now. I'm trying to figure out how to
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 6: maximize my senior.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 4: Year, you know?
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 6: So I figured, you know, I could call the, you know,
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 6: the unction or, you know, the, for the dash and
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 6: whatever the function is that y'all would call.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 4: Yourselves, you know?
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 6: Um, and you know, is what should I do for myself?
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 5: I received a text from Chris after this voicemail that said, well,
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 5: I didn't know there was a time limit, but it
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 5: cut me off. And he goes, I can call in
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 5: after class if you guys want me to while you're recording.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 5: So the voicemail's perfect.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 2: Digestive health! That's what they're there for. Thank you, Olipop.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 2: Do we have anything for young intern Chris? Chef and
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: I were thinking a felony.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: I was going to say on the student level, I
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: wish I would have been a little bit more loose
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 1: in college, but I mean, I was just all ball,
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: so I don't feel like I have any advice for
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: him on that level. I have a weird one.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 2: I know A & M would actually be, he goes
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: to Texas A & M.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: Tough, overrated ball club. Willie C. I love Elko. I
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 1: will say I love Elko. I do. I truly do.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: He does. But they got to show up. Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 2: And Chris, we have some footage of Chris on the
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 2: sidelines from one of the broadcasts. That might be a
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: fun little throw that in to the show. He also did,
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 2: before I give him my advice, he's putting feelers out
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 2: there of a potential run it back internship. Feelers are
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 2: being thrown out there. He's talking maybe even a For
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: the Dad specific internship.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: Let's see if the Papa Team 6 community right now,
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: if they can sound off in the comments about catching
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 1: up with Chris. Catching up with Chris. Or possibly a
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 1: running back internship with Chris. That could be fun.
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 2: My advice for him, this is a weird one, but
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 2: it would probably be fine at Texas A & M.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 2: When I think back to Baylor and the campus, there
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: were only certain schools that I went into as a student.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 2: to do my classes, but there's like all these old historic,
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: like really beautiful buildings on campus that you can just
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 2: go into at any time and go look around. And
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: so I feel like I explored 30% of Baylor's campus.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: And I know it's probably the same for Texas A &
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: M with how big their campus is. It's like, go
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: explore the campus, like places that you've never been before
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 2: and go check out some spots.
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 1: That's some good, just now that you're a father. Good
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: advice for the young lad. Yeah? Yeah, responsible.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, oh, Sherman was fun in college. It's
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 2: like Chef and Deke, they brought up a felony. Yeah, felony.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 2: You don't have to worry about owning a gun. Like,
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: it's great. Like a car jack? Flights are awesome. Chef,
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 2: did you have something?
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're not too far removed from your senior year. Yeah,
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 3: I just finished up two years ago, which it goes
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 3: by really quickly. I would say senior year is usually
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 3: the time where you start thinking about getting out of college.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 3: You're like, I'm ready to get out of here. You're
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 3: looking for jobs. Soak in all the stuff. Just do everything.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 3: You're a senior.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 4: Do more.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 3: Go hang out with your friends because after college, everyone's
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 3: going to split. You won't see a lot of friends
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 3: as much as you usually do. Don't take moments for
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 3: granted because... Although there's awesome parts of like post-grad and
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 3: like getting an actual job, making actual money. there's certain
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 3: things about college that I miss so much. I miss
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 3: like a Friday, like right before a game, you can
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 3: feel like a big game coming up and you're like,
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 3: all your buddies are together. And it's just like, there
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 3: are certain things that you will never, ever, ever in
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 3: your life get back again. That is so tailored to
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 3: that moment, especially at a school like A & M.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 3: So just do it all. Don't, don't do less and go,
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 3: I'm just ready to get out of here. Like double down.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 3: Cause I promise you in a year you'll look back
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 3: and go, man, there are parts of college that I'm like,
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 3: I wish I could go experience, you know, that again.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: That'd be my advice. That's good advice.
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Make the most of it. Yeah. Go do everything.
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 1: You won't, you're tired. It's so specific. Everything is worth it.
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 3: It won't ever happen again. Like you're never going to
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 3: get that kind of experience again. So, like, just soak
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 3: it in. Because it really is, like, once it's gone,
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 3: it's gone.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: And be the glue guy for that friend group. Yes. Like,
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: getting them out.
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 2: Like, hey, dude, we're not going to have these times
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 2: ever again. Be the glue guy. Be the glue guy.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 2: I would say create opportunities, too, of, like, grill outside.
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 2: We didn't start doing that until my senior year. And
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 2: I was like, what the hell were we thinking? We
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 2: started grilling outside more and, like, cooking and at the house, like,
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 2: all together.
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 1: And it's just, like.
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: you bring all the boys together for like day stuff.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: Cause we have the nightlife figured out, but like the
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: day stuff on Fridays where that feeling is in the
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: air and yeah, it's.
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: Fun, dude. I like that.
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 5: Big one to rip off what chef is saying is
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 5: my advice to Chris would be don't your free time
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 5: is not downtime because nowadays to your point, we'll like
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 5: you go to South on, you're like, all I want
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 5: to do for my birthday is be alone and sit
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 5: in this room. I would say for Chris, somebody with
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 5: his energy level, use your free time to do all
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 5: this stuff. Like, don't be like, oh, I'm just going
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 5: to take an easy day, like every inch of your college.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 5: Because once you get out, your free time is hard
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 5: to fight for. You're going to have a lot of
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 5: free time now. Chris is a bundle of energy, an
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 5: lollipop at this point. Use your free time.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 4: Start.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 5: Chris needs to stream. Check out the buildings. Like, don't
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 5: have a downtime right now because there's a lot of
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 5: time that you'll have down later in life.
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: Let's go. I like that. Chris, thank you for calling in.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: And we love our intern, Chris. Oh, so much.

• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: Riding in from... Grants Pass, Oregon. Skoducks.
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 2: I just wanted to ride in and give my wife
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 2: a massive shout out for the absolute clinic that she
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 2: put in this week.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 1: Let me set the scene for you. Tuesday morning, 3 a.m.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: Water breaks. Good. Wednesday rolls around. Still not a peep
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 1: from our boy downstairs.
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 4: Good.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 2: Thursday morning, midnight. She's up feeling the contractions coming on.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 2: I decide to stay up with her.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: Bad move.
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: We get a hold of the midwife. Yeah, this is
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: a home birth situation here. Midwife says, if you're not
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 2: in labor by 3 p.m., you can forget having a
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 2: home birth and go to the hospital. My wife is brokenhearted,
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 2: crying on the couch.

• 1:23:48
  Speaker 2: It looks like some of the kids in Scarlett's daycare
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 2: class with one-year-olds. He looks like he's trying to give
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 2: mom an order right now. He's trying to get some
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 2: food after all that.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: Probably do. They got nuggets, mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Oh,
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: it's just milk? Okay, we'll do milk. I'll do milk. Uh,
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 1: I got a little lesson for us. I do as well.
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: I have just a reminder here for, for the, uh,
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: for the girl dads, you know, uh, I came across
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: a little, little Instagram last night where it talks about
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: one day they're the, your little ones, their calendars are
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: going to be booked up. So get in their schedule
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: now because one day they're not going to need mom
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: and dad anymore. And it's just so true. It's just
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: such like little good reminders on the gram that I love.
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: But here's one here for, um, How daughters see their
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: dads at every age. Ages zero to five, dad is
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: my safe place. You hold her close, you protect her
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: without making the world feel scary. Your voice, your arms,
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: your presence tell her everything she needs to know. When
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: dad is here, I'm safe. Ages six to 10, dad
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: sees me. You show up to the little things. You
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: listen to her stories. You cheer the loudest. She's quietly
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: asking one question. Do I matter? When dad celebrates her efforts,
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: not just achievements, she starts believing in her own worth.
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 1: Ages 11 to 14. Dad respects me, but I'm still watching.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: She changes. She wants privacy, independence, and sometimes distance. You
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: give her space while still staying emotionally present. Even if
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 1: she rolls her eyes or seems embarrassed, inside she's wondering,
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: does dad still see me the same way? Ages 15
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 1: to 18, dad becomes my standard. How you treat her,
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 1: speak to her, and respect her begins shaping what she
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 1: believes love should look like. Your consistency teaches her what
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 1: respect feels like. and what she should never settle for.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 1: 19 to 21, dad trusts me. You start taking a
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 1: step back. You offer guidance instead of control. When you
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 1: trust her decisions, she learns to trust her own judgment
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 1: as well. In 21 plus, dad becomes fully human. She
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 1: begins to see the man behind the role, your stress,
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: your sacrifices, your quiet ways of loving, and she realizes
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: he was figuring it out too. Dude, that was really
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: well said. Really well said. Just one I wanted to share.
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 1: Just a reminder. Could be the same for boys.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great reminder too of for myself as
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 2: a kid, now a dad and like seeing my mom
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 2: and dad as the people that they are.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: And all the sacrifice. Man. Oh yeah. What a humbling
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: realization of.
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 2: Golly, I was not hard on my parents, but we're
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 2: all kids and we have that mindset of, man, are
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 2: they doing enough? Man, they should do a better job
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 2: at this.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: Stuff you kind of resent them for when you become
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 1: a parent and you, I don't know, you think of
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: things and then you also have that completely fully flipped
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: empathy card of, you understand that they were in different
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: times still figuring out just as much all the stress
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 1: that they carried outside of the household and everything else
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 1: that kind of operated there to where you kind of
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: released that resentment a little bit.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 4: Dude.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 2: And just the, my looking at myself in the mirror. Oh, Sherman, you're,
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 2: you're bad at communicating, uh, emotions that you're having. You're
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 2: bad at communicating when you have stress, you're bad at
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 2: delegating stress, blah, blah, blah.
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: Oh, who's that remind me of?
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 2: That was going through that same thing and was doing
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 2: it with two kiddos for all those years. And it
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 2: just makes you appreciate your mom and dad that much
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 2: more of like, damn.
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 1: I'll save my.
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 2: Quote because I think that was a great one to
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 2: end on.
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: I can save this one. This one's pretty evergreen. Okay.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 1: And the people in the comments, they'll be like, oh, Sherman, Sherman,
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 1: we got to hear it. It's that good. I promise.
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 3: I did.
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 2: I want to shout out. I believe his name was Nick.
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 2: We went to the Ruby Slipper in Franklin, Tennessee. And
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 2: he shared some extremely kind words to me when I
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: was a little bit frustrated with young Scar Scar. She
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 2: was throwing a fuss at the table. And I said, honey,
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 2: let me take her outside and have her cool down.
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 2: And I wanted to be eating my breakfast and was
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 2: a little bit frustrated dad, but wasn't showing it. And
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 2: he came up and shared some really kind words and
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 2: said he was a huge fan of yours and loved
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 2: the For the Dad show. And it was just a
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 2: A really good reminder of staying level-headed, staying in it,
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 2: and appreciating those moments.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, keep going. Dude, you just sparked a reminder, and
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 1: I would have felt so shitty for forgetting this. When
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 1: we were at Bussin' and Pate on campus. This weekend,
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: this weekend, we're going to be busing paid on campus
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: Friday afternoon. We're going to be in Knoxville, Tennessee.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 1: So chef, you got to hit all the group chats.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: You got to get all the boys ready to rock.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: I just texted my little brother. Let's go. We need everybody.
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: We need everybody. But last week, the, uh, Auburn campus
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: was rocking our best crowd yet. Some PT sickos in
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: the crowd, bro. Sickos in the crowd. And there was
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: one that came up to me, his name, shout out
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 1: Ken Nielsen. Shout out Ken Nielsen. And he was bringing
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: up the, I forget what part of the episode we're on,
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 1: but we were talking about getting pulled over. And if
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 1: the cop says like, hey, if you listen to For
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: the Dads, he might give you a little freebie. Is
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 1: he a cop? He's not, but his boy is who's
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 1: also a sicko. The cop, his name is Evan.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 1: Won't say last name, won't put all that out there.
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 1: But shout out Evan.
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 2: Because Evan reached out to Ken and was like, if
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 2: I get a moment, I'm going to be, if I
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 2: spot a PT sicko in the wild that I just.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 1: Pulled over, might give him a pass.
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 3: Oh!
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 1: And I said, man, if that happens, you got to
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 1: call in and let us know. Oh, my God. That
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 1: would be so electric. All anonymously, of course. All anonymous.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 1: All anonymous. But if there's some cops out there that
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 1: are PT sickos, you find another PT sicko in the wild.
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 1: As long as there's a little, you know, I'm not
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 1: going to tell you how to do your job. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: You just give them a little. Oh, that's what it is?
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 1: I see it, buddy. I see it. You're just going
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: to see people who listen to the show. They get
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 1: pulled over. They hurry up and throw on just our episode.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: Just as the cop comes up. Oh, excuse me. Let
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: me turn this down. We're in the background. Oh, let
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 1: me turn this down for you. Was I speeding?
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 2: That wouldn't happen to be one shelf in old Fat Stafford,
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 2: was it? It was actually Chef. He was telling us
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 2: about how he is a Disney exec and he'll be
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 2: calling Scarlett.
• 1:30:29
