question from a YouTuber Big Dinos Underscore Underscore on YouTube
or maybe just big Dinos, Yeah, Big Dinos. Is it
recommended to watch this show with a cocktail or a coffee?
Asking for a friend? Ooh, there's not a right there's
not a right answer there. Maybe you're in the morning

(02:01):
heading to work and you're just you want some hot
black coffee you love listening to for the dads, or
maybe you wait till the evening time. I did see
another commenter saying he listened to the audio he can't
wait to watch it with his wife when he gets
home in the evening time. Maybe with a cocktail. But
there's no wrong answer here. We are happy you're here. Uh,
this is a show for the dads. Also, we know
that there's some some milk teams that goes out there,

(02:23):
some Milk Team sixers.

Speaker 1 (02:24):

We got the goom berets or you're just you know,
they keep you on your toes. Yeah, that's the young
generation right there. You don't know what they might tune
in for the dads.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
They might not. They're they're chasing, they're out, they're chasing.
They might listen while they're playing Rocket League or call
a dude.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Yeah yeah, something like that, or trying to troll or
drop memes on the Internet or something swag or something yeah,
something like that. And then you got the Papa Team sixers.
That's the that's the dad military, that's the dad army.
Matter of fact, there is a call to action right now.
We are pressuring Ollipop to make a pop a drink
six drink because they are a new sponsor of our

(03:17):
show and we love Ollipop. If you listened to us
last week, we went on like a five minute segment
about Ollipop. My favorite is grape Shirm's ripping the vintage
cold of there. I personally again, if you weren't listening
last week, Ollipop grape is a top three drink in
my life. Classic grape, classic grape, Ollipop, classic grape. When

(03:40):
I got my little gas station runs in the evening
times every now and then, it's an ali it's for
an ollipop grape yep, and for a little bit in
the old lip. Yeah, you know what I mean. Get
ready to play some pubg with the boys.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
What do we got man? What's uh? What's new with you?
We got a lot to cover on this ship. We
we actually do have a ton to cover. I we
were talking before the show. I do have a public
apology that I just got one to knock out. A
public apology, public apology PSA. I just want to get
it out of the way and then that way we
can dive into comments and we can talk and catch

(04:14):
up about everything, but.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
I public apology, public apologies truly Forrat Stafford, Fat Stafford,
Willie one shelf over here. Yes, let new dads know
before you hit the public apology, what dads can be expecting,
or moms, or you just love listening to the boys,
maybe you love some dad talk.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Maybe you're not a father yet.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
Yes, tell them what they can expect to hear in
our episodes before your public apology.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Before the public apology. Here's a really good breakdown of
the show. You're new, you just clicked on this things
you could potentially see. You could potentially see Willy one
shelf over here, Will Compton or Fat Stafford, Sherman Young
over here, bawling our eyes out, talking about how much
we love our daughters, maybe reading a comment for one
of our listeners about how much they love their kids.

(05:01):
Vulnerable comments have been coming in, ye, vulnerable comments. But
then let's then turn the knob and maybe two minutes
later we're talking about mounting our wives. We're giggling, we're farting, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
we're the highs and lows of fathers, the highs and
lows of fatherhood. Yeah. And then quickly followed by h
hey kids show, let's tone it down. What are we doing?

(05:23):
But it's a great mix. I think I think people
are having fun with it.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah, great mix of our experiences in fatherhood as a
husband telling stories.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
That moment of when you spell a cuss word in
front of your kid, or like spell a word that
you don't want them to know. Yeah, that's like this podcast.
Is that moment manifested? I like that.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
Yeah, it's like when they get old enough to know
like milk, and you're just telling your wife, Hey.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
The m I LK? Did you have it? Did we
run out of it? Yeah? Did we run out of it?

Speaker 2 (05:57):
I don't want to say the word in front of
it right now because it's gonna it's gonna perker up
and then she's gonna.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Start yelling at me for some milk. She just cleaned
her plate, but I just checked. We're out of c
O O K I E s. Yeah, w tf are
we gonna do? Yeah? The cookies?

Speaker 2 (06:10):
That's a that is one that you have to spell out, like, Hey,
you think she's gonna ask about the c O O
K I S? Because we are out? We do need
to pivot. Is it going to be the A P
P l E s a ucee you pick up what
I'm putting down.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
Yeah, and if they and you know they love that
s a U se Yeah, and Dad's sitting there too
with mom's spelling out. They're like, you know, trying to
keep up. Hang on, let me let me draw this
out of my head. What's that? Oh apple sauce?

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Yeah, sweetheart, you don't have to spell the whole word, you.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Just the MT sixers at home are like perfectly following along,
and some of the dads watching there like yeah, yeah,
what what rewind that back? What do you just spell? Brandon?
You know he's he's spelling yas spelling it, but yeah
and uh. As always we do have our six to

(07:08):
oh one the dads call in the hot line, the
hotline that we go through. If you're an international listener,
or maybe you're just long winded you like writing, you
can also email us at six oh onethedads at gmail
dot com. That's six oh onethedads at gmail dot com,
and we will read those emails on the show as well.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yes, we play some voicemails, We read the emails, we
read some comments. Continue to engage with us at for
the Dad's Pod across all social media channels YouTube. They're
running it up every week. There's always great comments in
the YouTube channel. We try to read as many as
we can, can't get to all of them. We do
very much appreciate how much engagement, how much community this

(07:50):
for the Dad's Podcast has been building. But now that
we have that out of the way, go ahead give
your public apology.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
Yeah. I don't even know what you're apologizing for. Okay.
We covered what some would say is touchy stuff yesterday
with how we met our wives last week? Last week, Yeah,
I say yesterday. Yeah, it's okay, though I don't know
what day the week it is. We don't when you're
in the trenches, it's just a running clock. It is
the fact that I'm here at work doing my job.

(08:19):
It's a win. Yeah, that's a win. So last week
Will talked about how he met his wife. I talked
about how I met my wife, the moment that I
was like, oh my gosh, this is going to be
my wife. I'm in love with her. Will I pretty
much got everything wrong during that segment. Did you really? Oh? Yeah,
Coach Jill set me down and have me watching tape

(08:41):
coach Saban. She was like, what the fuck are you
talking about here? Heavy cream and a lollipop? Are you crazy?
And if we want, we can pause, roll the tape,
welcome back. So I said that her actual drink that
she made not because she was trying to be held
the will, because she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes during

(09:03):
pregnancy is the reason she made this drink. She is
not a psychopath. And I quote Chabanni sweet creamer with
lollipop banana cream was her drink. So let me say
that again, not heavy cream. We're talking Chabanni sweet creamer

(09:24):
mixed with banana cream. Ollipop is a nice little sweet
treat that you can drink when you're diabetic. End of quote.
There sherman, are you done with your public apology? I'm
not done with my public apology.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
I'm out to kind of get a kind of get
a clease and just throwing a question when you're getting
this coaching. Are you sitting there being like I was
barely off with the heavy cream part and I still
said ollipop, thank.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
You, thank you. I mean, if we're really gonna dissect it, honey,
I'm hitting all the things I ran the route. Maybe
I didn't turn to the outside. Maybe I didn't turn
to the sideline. Maybe I turned inside, but the corner
was gonna take away a one yard. I didn't get

(10:11):
all the depth I needed. Yeah, twelve back to ten.
Maybe I went eleven back to nine. But you know
I ran the damn route. Dude. We were we were
watching the episode, and I truly felt like I was
in a film room. We're just laying in bed at
such a sweet moment. I'm like, oh, hey, wife, you're
gonna love this. I was waxing poetic about her. I

(10:32):
love her. She go all, honey, yeah, he told the story.

Speaker 3 (10:36):
I didn't get two hot dogs.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
What are you talking about? Run that day? Welcome back.
My wife, Jill Young didn't order two hot dogs. She
ordered two beers in a hot dog. Will two beers
and a hot dog? Asked me, Is it okay if
I get two beers? I said, yeah, honey, that'd be great.
Oh I two beers and a hot dog. We got

(10:59):
that cleared up. Thank god. It wasn't too hot dogs.
It was two beers. It wasn't too hot dogs and
a beer. It was two beers and a hot dog. Okay,
what am I thinking? I don't know, bro, you got
to fucking dial it in. I'm a bad husband, I'm
a bad dad. The details are tough on this show man. Yeah,
tro hit me up, but it's I try and keep it,

(11:21):
you know, I'll try and love her from afar. When
she's talking to me about before the dad's details, she'll
tell me, honey, we don't have a nuna. You've said
it twice.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Now on the show. We don't have a nuna. I
can't even tell you the one that we got. But
I'm just like, it seems similar, Like nudas are nice.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
You've brought up to me. You've come up to you
and go, now, which one is the I know you
you have the nuna, but like there's the duna, right,
I don't have the duna though, right, you're asking me
what I'm asking you. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
She even hit me up and she's like, hey, I
was listening for the Dads last week. I see you
shared my DM. I'm like, yeah, kind of giggling.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
We didn't have too much conversation half of it. I'm
just like, that's what happened.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Did he follow up? No? Where she was driving? She's in.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
She's in London right now, right so they were going
to the airport. She was just kind of you know,
we're talking about the morning that they had. We'll get
in all. We'll get into that. We'll get into it.
But I kind of kept her at a distance, like
you know, anytime she's like I was listening for the ads,
I'm thinking, here we.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Go, what detail did I miss this time?

Speaker 2 (12:29):
But fortunately it was more of like, see you shared
the the DM that I said. I'm like, that's our
love story, sweetheart.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
That's our love Was she wearing a Pro Bowl hat?
Are we sure it was a Pro Bowl hat?

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Positive? It was a probo positive? It was a Pro Bowl.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
At least we're one, we're one for two.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
The only situation I was in is we're cutting a
clip for our story, and poor chef he's got to
find the cheerleader photos to put in the clip of
your wife, mother, mother of two, back in her you know,
back in her prime. She's, sweetheart, you are still very

(13:08):
much in your prime.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
I'm not saying that. I'm not saying none of that
right now. I know, hey, yeah, I'm not saying any
of that right now.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
You are an absolute smoke show, sweetheart, and she sure
she is.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Do you see how I waited for permission there?

Speaker 4 (13:24):
Right?

Speaker 2 (13:24):
And imagine Chef trying to put the pieces clip together,
wanting to use cheerleading photos and they're all over Google
and I when I saw the clip, I'm laughing to
myself because I'm like, Charles's gonna hate these photos, but
I can't. I feel bad for Chef because Chef's probably
like scrolling, like he's like, do I use this one?

Speaker 5 (13:42):
Where she like, Look, I looked for the most respectable
photos I possibly could, which they are?

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Yeah? Which they all they are?

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Chef's right, think like these ones look good, But I
don't like if I put that one in there?

Speaker 1 (13:57):
What is that? What is that saying? What am I
communicating to my boss? Like? What am I communicating with
this clip? Oh?

Speaker 2 (14:02):
Yeah, but I'm laughing. I text the group chat, hey
who made this clip?

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Just like I did.

Speaker 2 (14:08):
I'm like, Buddy, I'm sitting here in bed in my
hotel room, laughing, just imagining the mental warfare he's in
trying to figure out what should I use here for
these cheerleading photos when they're telling their story.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
He was such a gentleman about it. He pulled me
over to his computer very briefly, but essentially broke it,
broke it down perfectly of what you guessed, and just said, sure,
I'm you know, I'm trying to just find a good
picture of Charro and make sure like they'd be happy
with it. What do you think of this one? I'm

(14:40):
looking at it. You know that looks that's very nice.
That's a nice photo. I think everyone would be happy
with that.

Speaker 5 (14:47):
We sat there and after that conversation I might have
asked Sirm three or four times, come check, hey, do
you like just come look at it?

Speaker 1 (14:54):
So they're right, everything good, and so we go. Yeah,
it was great. I'm like, we like the clip.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
I gave him a note that had nothing to do
with the photos. Yeah, yeah, it looks good man. Maybe
bumped the audio a little bit, but other than that's great.
I think it's a good clip. Yeah. Back to apology mode.
Back to apology mode. Just to close it out. I
also I do want to apologize on behalf of Will

(15:22):
and I giving wrong information on the uh yeah, on
the meetup, and thank you Chef for catching that, and
just kind of a little round of applause for Chef
for just giving us the proper info in there. I
sentially just gone the mic and lied all last week.
That's kind of the breakdown. You got dead. I got

(15:44):
that bra. That's all it is. That's all it is.
He was excited to talk about your wife. You missed
on a couple of details. Yeah, you didn't lie, you misremembered,
you didn't lie.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
I think the big thing is, like, hey, the context
of the diabetes. Yeah, probably was you know in her head. Hey,
this is why it happens. And by the way, you
got my drink wrong.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
It's banana cream ollipop, which is a great flavor, by
the way, great flavor. And what did I even say.
I don't even know what I said. We were talking.
There was like a dreamsickle type flavoring soda cream soda
with heavy whipping cream. Well, I thought about that after
you said it. Shirm too.

Speaker 5 (16:24):
I was gonna add this the best part of the
whole segments, Like, I think that was an old Southern
trip cream in there.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
Okay, great, yeah that is normal.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
Oh no, you just picture, like you know, when your
mom would just be annoyed with your dad when he
gets some storytelling wrong and you see it happening in
real time.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Dust now, Jill fit. Jill facetimed me at the office
and have me put Derek on the phone so she
could apologize herself to Derek.

Speaker 6 (16:56):
Well, she goes, Sherman, can he throw the phone around?
Is that Derek over? And I'm like, hey, Jill, and
she's like, I want you to know I'm not this
psychopath that puts heavy whipping cream.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
And then he's looking like.

Speaker 6 (17:12):
That with his face covered, and she goes and also,
it wasn't two hot dogs, it was two beers. And
I go, Sherman, hot dogs and beers are nothing alike.
How did you mess that up? Sorry, sir?

Speaker 1 (17:23):
Is Derek Derek?

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Can you turn the phone around and put him on
the phone? Derek, Hey, I'm not a psychopath. Okay, Hey,
Derek has more than two brain cells. Put him on
the floor. And I had just showed him a text
from my mom. Came out of surgery and heard my
dad had the day together, so they were watching the show.
My mom texts me, she goes, Will and SR talks
so highly of their women and are just so amazing.

(17:45):
And when I go to turn my phone Jill's FaceTime
and he's like, oh, hold on, one second, and then
Joe calls and he's like, you are an idiot.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
I don't do heavy whipping cream. You are wrong. It
was the best day. So then I had to apologize
to their experience on face time and tell them, hey,
my wife's a psychopath. Also woke up this morning helping
Burp Scarlett trying to be a sweet dad get to
the office. First thing I read from Jill, it's a
picture of Chibani sweet creamer and ollipop banana. Uh, banana cream,

(18:17):
banana cream. She said, redeem me heavy cream my ass.
So I get to go home to that later today.
Very excited, very excited. Love my wife, Love my wife.
Do we do love Jill Man? Oh, she's the best bro.
And now I can have fun. The weight's off my chest.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
I can't I can't wait to break down more of
these conversations when we get to the the Boo at
the Zoo meet up.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Brother. Also, we are dead meat if our wives ever
come on this podcast. Like that was a funny, cute
idea at first, but now I'm just like it would
just be a Will and Sherman roast session for like
two hours straight.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
You got to figure out, like when they do come
on like have some question game. Oh god, where we
don't got.

Speaker 5 (19:05):
A shot obviously, I think that I think what it
is is me and Derek need to come up with
all the questions.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
You guys. Just we won't even give you mics. Just
give us one mic. Sherman and I have to sit
next to each other. It's just one mic. We're basically
at that point, we're just on trial. It's having a podcast.
This is the trial of Will Compton and Sherman Young.
Oh my god, got to lead from the front, lead

(19:33):
from the front. This is what we do. Yes, yeah,
I am really glad that.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
I do have you in my corner always in forever, bro,
Thank you dude, you always in for You helped me
a lot.

Speaker 1 (19:44):
It fall fast when she was coming for my neck.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Yeah yeah, and you just find your lanes to you know,
keep a round, get her in moments to rawl up
just to kind of smile.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
Yeah. Yeah, you know, he doesn't, you know, the old boy.
He's trying his best. She was she was getting me
is something and Will just puts his arm around me
and walks off of me and go, hey man, it
ain't nothing, man, You know that man, he's all good man.
And I needed that. Yeah, yeah, I uh so, I
had a week.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
I had these last five days Monday through Friday with
Scottie one on one. Charlie went to London with Rue
for some one on one mommy daughter time which they
had an absolute blast.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Miss him dearly they get them to night. Of course, you.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
Know how you get left home alone? How have you been,
I've been all right, Yeah, puttering around the house. I
will say it is boring and quiet. But you gotta
love the boring and quiet sometimes, Yes, where you have
that peace and quiet like there's it's like the the
cons as you miss them. You see that Ruth's smiling

(20:50):
in every photo. They're truly having the greatest time. It
seems like they're having the greatest time ever, which I love.
But it also gives me fomo. Yeah, it makes me
miss Rue, makes me miss my wife, like I can't
wait to see her when they get home tonight. But
the pros of being alone is you have that peace
and kui, you have that serenity. You have that I
can do whatever I want when Scotty goes down and

(21:12):
Scotty's easy, bro Scotty, She's she.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Is all time we play. I will say.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Within the first four hours, she bumped her head twice.
One was a tough one, one left the lump right.
Oh no, right up above her eye. So that's that's
my dad. Is that the one that you sent me? No,
that's that one's separate up the t that's.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
Separate of the two. Oh wow.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
So uh here here's a video of Scotty giving the
haters a reason to come after a walking Yeah. So
she fell there, hit her head, bumped her head, and
I'm sitting there record and I'm like, oh shit, you know,
I stopp and pause and I scrambled. I'm kind of
like chuckling to myself. I'm like this she has to learn.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
Yeah, you love.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
I'd love to be giving her some spotting hands and
everything else. I'm sitting there recorder because she had nothing
around her the first time she popped her head or
popped her face. And she's like walking, and it was
around the coffee table, like picture this. Yeah, like walking
around the coffee table and she leans forward and hits
her eye like the oh, the very like vulnerable spot

(22:17):
in her eyes, like the bone with the only skin.
She smokes it on the corner bro and oh, I
felt so bad. I felt so bad.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Did it raise or leave it? Mark? Yeah? Yeah, raise.
She had a little swolling up top there. It was red.
But she's a beast, dude. You know Scott's Zilla, Scott's
Hill is tough. But more so, how how does that
information then get shared with Charo?

Speaker 7 (22:40):
No?

Speaker 1 (22:41):
I tell her the next day? Yeah, yeah, I tell
her next day.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
She popped her head yesterday, she popped her eye yesterday,
and look out happy she is now.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
Look at her. Where were you what were you doing?
I was on the couch. I tried to get into her.
I said, oh, don't don't do that. Don't do that,
I warned her. I told her, sweet, be careful. But yeah,
she sma, she hits her face.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
But it wasn't like we had one situation when we
were down doing a little vacation in Destin a couple
of years ago when Rue was a smaller shoes I
think one at.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
The time, and we had her.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
We got done with the beach, we come back to
the spot and we're getting her milk ready to go,
and I have a blue booking blue book in front
of her.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
She's reading the blue book. One of us I can't
remember who I'll just say it was me.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
Yeah, puts the bottle down on the table, But the
little coffee table is kind of like kind of just
enough away where Rue reaches for it from the couch
and tips forward and smokes her face on the coffee.
That I'm talking blood had a cut everything. I'm going
down to Walgreens up just by giving the biggest first
aid kit. Thinking back to the alice, Yeah, she was

(23:46):
cut up and she was bleeding and everything else. So
when I'm telling Charlie about Scottie hitting her out, like
it wasn't one of those situations like it was like
Rue back in DestinE, she was walking what you were
like the video that we posted of her having like
those first steps caught on video to where the Denver
Broncos were doing that comeback when and we were all
cheering and you hear Charles say, oh, watch out for
the table. I'm like, it was that situation. But she

(24:09):
hits the table, yeah, yeah, answered above her eyes. She's
you know, she's screaming, she's crying. But one thing I
love this is actually a simple little dad hack here
is when they're screaming and crying and when you felt like,
you know, I'm sitting there in loving on armholder.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
I'm like, Dad as.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
Here, it's okay, you know, kind of you know, doing
all this small talk to her because she's like burier
face in my shoulder.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
Oh, and it's sad.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
But then when you get to a level of enough
crying or maybe they shouldn't be they're crying right now,
but maybe they shouldn't be crying anymore type of situation
in your brain, what I do as a dad hack
is I immediately go to a photo on the wall.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
You know how we have that wall of photos where
it's like, yeah, when you walk in the door, it's
back to the right.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah, it's back to the right. It's got all those photos,
all those family photos. Yes, I'll just say where the
photos at? And Scottie immediately looks right at the wall
like I can just be around the area now, and
I just say, hey, where are the photos? And she
pops up with a little smile on her face and
she sticks her hand out in points.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
And we just kind of go down the photos. I'm like, oh,
there's mom and dad, Dad says getting married, there's your grandpa,
there's Lolanopa, And we're just going down photos and she's
totally fine after that.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
Like when she fell on the video that we just showed,
when she bumped her in and she's crying. I picked
her up and it wasn't that bad of a bump.
It wasn't that bad of a lump. She falls down
and makes a video hilarious because I'm like, oh shit.
She starts kind of squealing and crying. But I pick
her up and immediately start walking toward that photo wall,
and right when I get around the corner, I'm just like, hey,
we're the photos, and she was done crying. She's like

(25:33):
pointing out all the photos. So that's a simple little
dad a little dad hack right there. It's a great
dad hack that works.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
I've seen it in the wild Shout out Texas Roadhouse
where with Jill's cousin, and this was when their son
Easton was like one. He's in the high chair and
he totally has the strength to hold himself up, but
for some odd reason just completely goes down, bangs his
head loud like a yeah bro, and mom and dad

(26:02):
instantly go whoo it start going like that, and he
just like with tears his eyes. He's like I guess,
so I guess oh god, damn it, what can somebody
catch me? Yeah, you could. You can go that director
or the distraction. Either one of them's a distraction.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah, but it works. It does work, And it's hard.
It's hard to catch yourself in the moment when you
hear a loud noise and not like react like I was, like,
oh shit, and go to her and she had already
started crying. But if you have the wherewithal to be,
like to celebrate and try and catch them in the
celebration mentality to where they're still kind of crying or
putting their hands together. But if not, a good go
too is just find a photo on the house, find find.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
Some close Oh check this out. This is crazy.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Look at this little cowboy right here, and they just
start pointing at it and smiling. You know, you wipe
their tears off. They might start whining a little bit more.
But that's a good little dad hack. But yeah, I've
been five days with Scottie. It's been a lot of fun.
We've had a lot of good times, good moments. I
go and get her in the morning, like going to
get your going to get your little one, like again.
Scotty is eleven, months old, going to pick her up

(27:07):
in the morning, like when she's waking up and in
her crib, and like walking in her room and just
seeing the smile on her face to where you're like
all excited baby talking to him, like tickling him and
everything else, and you just kind of pick them up,
go take him to the changing changing table. And what
I like to do is, since it was just me,
it's like I'll go, I'll change her and everything else,
and then I'll bring her back down to my bed

(27:28):
and we'll just sit there and snuggle all feet of
the bottle. Yeah, and then they just want to play bro.
But she's all about there's a survival kid out there.
It's the Little Tyke's red car with the yellow roof.
We've all had it growing up. Oh yeah, Like Ruth's
big first Christmas present when she was like one or
two was this red little Tyke's car. Scotty now loves it.

(27:50):
She loves getting into it. I kind of walk and
put around the house with it. But she loves that.
And we just you used to have like a good time.
You sit there, I crawl everywhere with her. She's really
walking right now, so she loves to practice and like
get up and walk and smile and be proud of herself.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
She has like this little hand that she like. She
like kids like she's walking.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
We went to the park, had a little did a
little walk around a few times, pushed her in the
swing and bedtimes just easy with her. Man read her
a Little Lama Lama reader, the Lama Lama book. Lamalama
goes to bed or something like that.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Lamalama Red Pajama, Oh, Lamaalama Red Pajama. Ludacris does a
remix to Lamalama Red Pajama. You'll have to look it up.
He's got a song for La Malama. But read her
a Little Lama Lama Red Pajama book. She's feeding on
the milk. You have the sell machine on. You cut
the lights and you just rock back and forth. She
falls asleep in your arm. You lay her down, and
then you got the rest of the night to yourself.
There is such a you and Jeremy were telling me

(28:48):
this earlier in the week. Like the older they get
the bedtimes. You know, once they're down, you have the
rest of the night to yourself.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
Yeah, especially in that phase where Scotty's at right now,
because you can get them kind of down within thirty
minutes and they know what time it is. We're rue
her being three, it takes a lot more negotiation. Yes,
it takes like a longer process. She can crush it
at times. Other times she kind of drags things out
and finds the angles to make it go longer. But
in this particular moment with Scotty, it is you're like,

(29:18):
in that easier face.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
If they're doing a.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
Great job of sleeping through the night, which she does,
she knocks out twelve hours, but you get them down
from that seven to seven thirty range, and then you're
downstairs and you got like, what at least.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Two hours, two and a half hours to yourself at least.
And for any new dad, I have to just pound
it into your brain of getting the I've lost the
words I was trying to start. It's you give your
the talk to the schedule. This what's it called having

(29:51):
a routine routine? There it is, Oh, okay, I want
to pound this into new dad's heads, having a routine
for your kid. Because you when we first got pregnant,
you kept on being to sherman Hey twelve hours by
twelve weeks and do this sleep system or whatever, and
we ended up going with a different sleep system, but

(30:12):
it has set us up for success to have those
moments of your baby is napping at certain times during
the day, so then when you're going into the night
time feed, they have their last bottle of the day.
I don't even after I burp Scarlet, I'm not even
having to sit there and sing her songs and souff,
She's like this on me after I burper. I mean,

(30:33):
she's like ready to go in the crib and they
know what time it is.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
Because the environment too, it's like all these systems you
have around, Like the Twelve Hours and Twelve Weeks was
a book that char and I read that that's the
system that we use, but it's.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
Yours is called what Mom's on call. Mom's on call.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
Just find a system, and that does help set you
up for success because there's a lot of things in
these books too that you just learned about the whole
routine of everything and even just the environment of them
knowing when it's playtime, them knowing what it's now time,
them knowing when it's bedtime, everything in between.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
And everything has a cause and effect with the little ones. Yeah,
like if if you do everything right during the day,
that means that bedtime is gonna go great, and then
that means that wake up time in the morning at
seven o'clock on the dots, seven to fifty on the dot.
They're giggly, they're happy, they're smiling, they're so excited to

(31:24):
see you. You put that first bottle in, They're like,
I rested all night, I slept all night, and I'm
just ready to play and cozy with dad, apps and
poop and ushit. God, but I just wanted to I
say that because those are my favorite moments in the morning.
Like when I was doing my notes for the show

(31:47):
before I got here, I was just laying in bed
doing it on my phone a little bit as we
had just burnt Scarlet. Jill has Scarlet down on the
pillow in our king sized bed and between me and her, Yeah,
Jill's just playing with her and I'm doing my notes
through the show, and I'm like, man, moments like these
like this is awesome. But you can't have those moments

(32:07):
if they didn't sleep well the night before. Can't have
those moments if they don't sleep well well, did you?

Speaker 5 (32:11):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (32:11):
We had it?

Speaker 6 (32:12):
I think it was two episodes of last episode of
Guy I named Jack gave you the dad hack to
put things in their hands when they started walking.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
Yeah, I want to try if you try it yet?

Speaker 2 (32:19):
Yeah, so Scotty, she's she's actually stood up with like
a ball and stuff in her hand, and I gave
her another ball. I do feel like it is helpful,
Like she's she's stringing along more steps, So shout out
that dad hack that was given. Yeah, a couple episodes ago.
Maybe it was the last episode, but it is like
they just feel like they have some in their hand.
I kind of love when she has her right hand
open because she kind of hits one of these.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
It's like a cam Wardna.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
Hits one of them. Yeah, she's like got it going.
Like she's walking and smiling and being.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
Like, Yo, check this out, dude. The video that you
sent me that I don't think you've posted yet.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
I have not posted that one yet. Okay, by the
time this comes out, it will be out there.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
Okay. Cool. She had a definite moment of oh, she
almost lost it and just regained her balance. I said
she got a daddy in her.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
She got a daddy in and he and hermy dancer,
ballet dancer. That's right, she's got some athletic jeans. Can't
sleep on mama, now, you can't sleep on mama.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
Can't Also we skipped, uh, we skipped some of our comments.
We did we can Joe.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
Yeah, let's get into some comments we did last week
during the during the quote topic lesson. There's some homework
on what is a value hope your child carries with
them throughout their life. We do have a few of
those comments that we will we have them actually have
it labeled homework that will head toward the end of
the episode. We do have some fun comments up top
that we will recontinue to leave comments throughout the episode.

(33:43):
Please just a little dad small talk before we get going. Yeah,
just a little dad small talk. And if you missed it,
I hit the survival kit, which is things that you
need at the house, things that I say like, hey,
these are this is great to throw in the old backpack,
the old survival kit. The little tax red car went
through My dad lost with Scotti hitting her head twice
than the first four hours of me watching her. That
was especially after the second one. That was honestly, the

(34:05):
second one was the video. I'm like I gotta tighten
this up. I gotta tighten this up. Can't be letting
her just cry and hitting her face like in day
one of me watching Old Scotty Joe Lee.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
And then we had the dad hack.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
We had the dad hack of going if they're crying,
going to a photo around the house or going to
something to where you can get them up out of
their tears. Gotta distract them, gotta distract them, give them
them a little distraction.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
But yes, you want to go ahead and hit the
first comment. Yes, This one comes from Eli Schroeder five

puppet dance party. I'm reading the comment and I'm like,
I mean, what like what how big?

Speaker 1 (36:24):
Like? What could this be to where you say she

I'm personally taking a photo so I can show all
the boys. Look at my daughter. She's crushing it. A school.

Speaker 1 (37:34):
Dude. Ryan thank you. That's a late It's so funny.
Uh so funny. I got another one from Alan Lane
nineteen ninety one. This one is also on YouTube. Boys
brand new member of PT six here. Welcome Alan, Welcome.
My wife Alyssa and I just welcomed our first baby boy, Hudson,

(37:54):
into the world and wanted to send a huge thank
you for the pod. I'm a dad hat. I have
a dad hack that could hopefully help another expecting father.
Alyssa was super anxious and self conscious about me looking
down south or as we say, what was on the
other side of the wall. Was how Joys described that, Oh,

(38:18):
you're a watcher on the wall.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
Yeah, during the wall, Yes, yeah, yeah, you're a watcher
on the wall. You start Night's Watch.

Speaker 1 (38:25):
Yeah, you're Knight's watching, or a watcher on the wall.
He's talking about looking down south during labor, and honestly,
I wasn't sure that I really wanted to look. However,
to prepare going through the trenches and that big moment,
I watched a high depth video online of a woman
giving burd weeks leading up to our due date, like

(38:48):
watching game tape before the big game, after the delivery,
hearing my wife casting me up to her friends and
family telling them how amazing I am during the process
was the best thing I could ever have heard. As
one shelf, Willie says, fail to prepare or prepare to fail.
Keep up the great work. One shelf in fat Staff

(39:10):
Chef and Derek sending love from your pals up North
Canadian Flag, Alan, Alyssa and Hudson. Oh that is all time,
all time. I always stay. I stayed north of the wall. Hey,
don't blame you. Jill when she was going through nursing
school showed me a simulation of childbirth that was like

(39:34):
four or five years ago. I still vividly remember that,
just simulation video. I can imagine them turning the child
sideways and and just the things that start out, you know,
the size of this, then turn out the size of that,
you know, and it's just it's a little jarring. It's

(39:56):
a little jar I can only imagine.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
And it was something like char Obviously, she ended up
having a like when Rue was being born, we were
going were she wanted to be national first, we ended
up having to get in a sea section.

Speaker 1 (40:07):
I always forget that.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
That's but even going into the process, the game plan
was always I'm going to stay north of the wall.
She didn't mind that I stayed north of the wall either.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Yeah, more power. Yeah. I just you know, I'm sitting
there and I have the midwife going, ay, dad, you'll
you'll want to see this, dad, And I'm sitting there like,
I did not talk about this with my wife. I
don't know if I do want to see it. She's
down there going, you know, pushing, So this is not
the time to ask for permission. Yeah. And then Jill

(40:37):
all of a sudden's like get down there. Yeah. I'm like, okay,
I'll look it was dude, damn, Yeah, it was a thing.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
I shout out. Stan Janis but a buddy of mine, Logan.
I've spoken about Logan a lot on busting with the boys,
but his dad staying I remember.

Speaker 1 (40:53):
When we were young. I was probably.

Speaker 2 (40:57):
Eleven twelve years old, and he was talking about the
experience and talking about, you know, just the shit and
piss and blood and everything else and just being a.

Speaker 1 (41:05):
Wee little lad. I'm like staring with that face.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
Yeah, and I'm just thinking to myself, I don't think
I could ever look at that yeah. And so I
just think from a young age it's just always been
in my head. Whatever the vision that I had back
when I was that age, coming into the questions of hey,
would you want it? I'm I think I'm just gonna
stay up here. Stand scared you straight? Stand scared me straight? Yeah,

(41:32):
he scared me straight.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
I will say for any hunters out there, if you
are debating this topic of whether or not to go
south of the wall, like the smells that you encounter
hunting when you're field dressing an animal, expect those smells. Okay, yeah, yeah,

(41:55):
and I'll leave it at that. Yeah, that's all you
can do. And for people that don't, I think to myself,
that's gotta be jarring as well. That's got to be
pretty jarring. Yeah, the sights, the sounds, and the smells.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
I think it's hilarious that he was watching High Depth
needed four K. Let me watch tape, because I want
to say, like people who are doing it, I'm speaking
for it, Like I didn't do this, So I'm speaking
for what I've heard through friends, through people that kind
of talk about the experience that they feel seeing their wife,
like seeing both of them they're accomplishing this thing together.

(42:28):
I feel like it's very much like a connective thing. Yeah,
with your wife that it's your wife, so you don't
feel like you don't feel some type of way to
I'm laughing about it, thinking he's just going in to
prepare for war. Yeah, like I'm gonna watch somebody else
go through this where I have zero attachment, just to
see what I'm getting myself into.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
I'm laughing imagining the woman that was filmed and some
doctor coming in and going, and Rebecca, before we start
the childbreadthing process, we do have some students here today
for research purposes. Would you be okay with us filming
this today? And how in the world did she say
yes to that? Yeah? And then you have Rando over
there with the camquarder just zoomed in. Hang on, let's

(43:11):
get to cover up on it. Oh, zoom in. Yeah,
Derek said, get the boom mic going if y'all can
see him. All right, let's get another one here for safety. Please. Hey,
that was perfect, Rebecca. We're just gonna do it one
more time.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
Yeah, Hey, Doc, We're gonna needed to stop right here.
We got to reset a lens. We gotta get a
different lens. Rebecca, can you stop pushing for a second.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
Talent is really loud by the way we're taking shots.
Are we okay with that? But yes? That was that
was mine? So here we go.

Speaker 2 (45:59):
God, what we got to pray for him that he
keeps that mood throughout the entire process. That's where it
gets challenging. That's why we embrace the good mentality here.

Gabriella Sastra two one three, She wrote in the reference
to Ladybugs had me bawling. I lost my brother to
suicide in May of twenty twenty four. Since his passing,
Ladybugs have made their present and unique times where I

(50:02):
know it's my brother justin giving us a wink from heaven.
Love you guys and this podcast. I look forward to
listening every Wednesday. And I love what you're doing. Keep
it up. Hashtag Milk Team six. Thank you, VERI what's
her name, Gabriella, Gabriella, thank you for thank you for
shooting in that comment. I know last week when I read,

(50:23):
I saw a couple of comments too. Fired up, not
like fired up, but like appreciating the logan email that
came from like the Reo connection and everything.

Speaker 2 (50:31):
Else and or Nelly yes and that email. I took
the card. I took it with me home, and I
let my wife read it as well, because I felt
like it was that like impactful, like just reading that
and seeing that and just taking a step back and
thinking about the universe in general and how that was
giving closure.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
To Logan and the family.

Speaker 2 (50:51):
Yes on writing that in so Gabriella, thank you for
thank you for sharing your comment as well. Yes, I
wanted to give a shout out. Let me pull I
know I texted it to you.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
You look for that.

Speaker 6 (51:00):
We'll just confirm it is from Texas, and I believe
I could be wrong. I believe your friend d M
the show too. Oh did he that's my boy Logan
or something? There was something like that that I'm digging
for now. That's another lore of like people recognizing other
people from Collins from right ends.

Speaker 1 (51:15):
Yeah, yeah, like that, that's really cool. But from Texas. Okay, cool?
Cool that then that makes all the sense of the world. Yeah,
j dude. JT's the man. By the way. While Will's
still looking for this, he does a bunch of like
music video shoots and stuff in Nashville. I've been trying
to find some kind of shoot where we need like
extra hands to get JT invot. He's he came up.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
To me randomly. He's like, hey, I know Sherman. Really
well call him a bitch for me and tell what's up.

Speaker 1 (51:43):
I just laughing. I was like four weeks into the
job and Will comes in. He goes, hey, sure's some
guy at Walgreen's called you a bit And I was like,
what the make sure to believe one or two of
those out shifts. Yeah, yeah, just the place. But what
Sherman was referring to.

Speaker 2 (51:58):
Everybody knows how massive of the Nebraska guy that I am,
so a lot of my algorithm is around like Nebraska stuff.
But there was something that came across my timeline that
I just wanted to say that for the ads, the brand, sure, myself,
Chef Derek, like the community pop a team six that
we are rallied behind. This head coach from Elkhorn North,

(52:20):
he is eleven month old passed away, was going I
was battling through through some things throughout you know, I say,
like childhood, but throughout up to that eleven months he
was a twin. And this head coach, coach Sam Stanley,
he lost his son Grant just weeks before his first birthday,

(52:42):
which is you know, again fighting back teers, but can
not imagine going through something like that being a head
coach of a football team. Yeah, still doing your absolute
best to compartmentalize with a group of like young men,
high schoolers, just like I'm sure the high school football team,
like they're rallied around him, but you're mostly like coaching
and parents might understand what you're going through. I can

(53:04):
only imagine how difficult that was. They went out and
beat their rival for the I believe the first time
in program history. But they want it, And I'm reading
this article talking about highly emotional of a game. It
was seeing the team and coaching staff and everybody kind
of rally around him and his family. So just want
just want that that football team and coach Stanley to
know that for the dads, we're thinking about you, pop

(53:26):
a team six, we're thinking about you.

Speaker 1 (53:27):
We're rallied around you as well.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
Digital arm, digital bear, hug everything because man heart goes
out to you and mom and just that situation, because
that that is tough.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
And to go out and coach a football game. I
was just about to say that's the most heroic part
of it is the great line from Remember the Titans.
Attitude reflects leadership. That's a huge part of leading a
team is the attitude that you bring in about high
school every single day into the locker room, right practice
and maintaining that kind of attitude and being able to

(54:03):
lead young men during loss like that. Dang yeah, yeah,
dang yeah, Hard goes out to him.

Speaker 2 (54:11):
Man. I know, I know one day, like, uh, clearly
the ripple effect with the family and everything else that'll happen.
But the effect and impact he will have on that
team and those kids who grow up and go on
to chase careers, whatever they do, they'll always be able
to like look at this moment from their old head
ball coach in high school and remember a time of

(54:33):
you know, resiliency, whether or not you wanted to practice
that resiliency, resiliency, whether you even wanted to get out
of bed, because I'm sure at times you just you
don't want to do anything. Maybe football, you can assume
was the just the escaping factor of getting his head
out of, you know, the the grief that is that
was currently.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
Going on with him.

Speaker 2 (54:52):
That'll have an effect that will have an impact on
those on those young men, because I'm thinking, like they
don't even they don't even understand the weight of it
right now until they going to have kids one day
and think back on that moment and realize, like, damn,
coach was going through something that I couldn't even have
a perspective from.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
Yeah, dude, but.

Speaker 2 (55:11):
Heart goes out to that team, heart goes out to
that family, and uh, yeah, I just wanted to take
a moment because I saw that come across my timeline.
So a couple of people attacked me to too, just
because again it's around Nebraska, yea, and they know the
pod for the dads and so just wanted to share that.

Speaker 1 (55:27):
No, I'm glad. I'm glad that you did. I'm glad
that you shared that. I am coming off of an
emotional high from last week of having my parents in town,

That is so fucking awesome. I grew up Cubs fan
my whole life. It's the only team outside of Tennessee
that I ever loved because my grandfather, a lot of
my family's from Illinois, grandfather was a Cubs fan.

So hey, that's that's honestly very cool to see that
reaction in real time. I don't because we got We're
so glad we got the.

Speaker 6 (01:03:16):
Sorry dropped it like a nugget of information.

Speaker 5 (01:03:19):
What but anyone like for anyone who is grew up
Cubs fan, like Anthony Rizzo is like he's a hero
to like anyone who grew up because it was like
being a Cubs fan for a long time is a
very miserable experience.

Speaker 1 (01:03:34):
That's more. That message is.

Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
More for people who maybe aren't Cubs fans. This is
the weight of why I feel the way I yes,
because Cubs fans they know they feel that excitement.

Speaker 1 (01:03:44):
Yeah, but we got the text.

Speaker 2 (01:03:46):
World Series champion, gold Glove winner, silver Slugger Anthony Rizzo
says he loves for the dance and injuiced me up
because we go like we got busting, but we were
playing when Busting kicked off. So it's like there's a
there's a level of of status that you will have
when you're first getting exposed, like as far as NFL
guys and people in that world, but to know, like

(01:04:07):
me and you are doing for the dads.

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
And this is a very much.

Speaker 2 (01:04:09):
A niche podcast, very niche, very niche, and it's like,
you know, Anthony Rizzo coming across for the dads and
just being like, I enjoy, like I love listening for
the dads. Whether or not he said that, I'm taking
it that he said I love for the dads. But
it fired me up.

Speaker 1 (01:04:22):
It fired me up, and I just know that he's
listening to this right now. Going, guys, stop at how
Sherman's wife hates him. I like that talk about mounting
your wife. Subscribe, subscribe.

Speaker 2 (01:04:38):
But you know, you know Rizzo, you know Rizzo is

They played this past weekend college game day Missoo Vanderbilt. Yeah,
but get into your highs of the weekend. Can't wait
to hear about your family did coming to town? You
had the whole family here when we were done with
the podcast last.

Speaker 1 (01:05:26):
Week, I have the whole family.

Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
How the weekend go, talk to us about your crack
of cold one highs. Wait, it went really well.

Speaker 1 (01:05:33):
The whole family was in I do not get to
see my brother often. It's it's really kind of like
once a year, and so last week was awesome getting
to see my brother, but more importantly getting to see
my mom, my dad, and my brother all at the
same time. It's just funny when you get older, having
all the people in the same room together just seems

(01:05:53):
less and less and less, and so having them here
for the four days that they were here was incredible.
They're obsessed with y'all. They are obsessed with Derek and Chef.
By the way, I want to give a huge shout
out to them for just whatever y'all were talking about
with my family, whatever was said. They adore them. I
mean they were My mom talked about you two for hours.

Speaker 5 (01:06:17):
Likewise, they're very kind. It was awesome to get to
get to talk to Sherman's family. Super sweet bunch, like
exactly what you'd hope for whenever you know you're meeting
someone that you work with or friend's family, it's always like, oh, well,
sue happens, and they were, you know, exceeded expectations.

Speaker 1 (01:06:34):
I don't know, Derek. The only thing I'll say.

Speaker 6 (01:06:36):
The two stories that came up is your dad like
was coming up and I went for a mister young
and he goes Sherman and I was like, that's why
he's a junior, Like got it, like Sherman.

Speaker 1 (01:06:45):
So instantly your.

Speaker 6 (01:06:46):
Dad like all, oh yes, all veil of being a
dad is gone, Like your dad's the coolest. And then
shout out your brother for wearing Nike Monarchs because I
felt it he did. They were the cleanest pair of
Nike Monarchs I ever did see. And I was like,
that's for the dads if I've ever seen it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:59):
He did. He was rocking up brand new monarchs. I
did notice that we got.

Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
To get us a pair like I have a dirty
stained pair, which I know plays. Yeah, but we gotta
get some fresh monarchs going on again.

Speaker 1 (01:07:10):
Yeah, we gotta get that gun and the uh was
it the five to five sixes? The Newbies a new Balance? Yeah? Yeah?
Is it the the the like the original that we're
talking about? The dad?

Speaker 2 (01:07:20):
Yeah, oh yes, we're talking like he's like, yeah, you're
probably talking five five I got five fifty, but this
ain't the dad.

Speaker 1 (01:07:26):
That's not the dad collects. Yeah, then five five sixes
you mow the lawn and some five five seas you
mean bit? Yeah, but yes, my brother. Was that my
first or my brother's first time meeting you? I think so.
I believe so.

Speaker 2 (01:07:39):
I was kind of handling it like i'd seen him again. Yes,
but I think that was the first time meeting him. Yeah, yes,
I think so too.

Speaker 1 (01:07:46):
But he was elated, and uh it got brought up
because we talked about in last week's episode the track
days and the shot put and uh, my, my brother
he fixates, he ruminates on things. Yeah, he brought up
four or five times, just going sure, I don't I
don't think Will knows how athletic you really were. I uh,

(01:08:09):
I just don't know if he'd know. And it's fine,
it's fine, but I just don't think he really understands
how fast you really were. I don't think. I don't
think I do. I don't think I get it. Hey,
I couldn't prove it to you. I'm not in the
I'm not in the state that I could prove it
to you. But I just thought that that was so

(01:08:29):
funny that my brother was like, I got to prove
to Will Compton.

Speaker 2 (01:08:32):
That he's like, he's there tape my Yeah, there's probably
some tape out. We got to get some tape. We'll
get some tape. We'll get some tape.

Speaker 1 (01:08:38):
But that was his one g takeaway is that he
is sorry that he came to my defense so strongly
in that conversation. Oh yeah, I didn't think anything of it.
I loved it. And my mom sweeps in with the
ultimate segue and I love chef, but oh I feel
bad for his volunteers. Yeah, and it just shifted. I'm
hardy bring that. I did not mean that in about

(01:09:00):
your mom's funny sweetheart. Bro It hurt people, hurt people.
Your mom's such a sweetheart too.

Speaker 2 (01:09:06):
She and I'm in a couple convos with her, and
I'm feeling like I'm feeling like she's wanted to talk,
like not talk ball with me, but kind of show
that she can talk some ball. And she's like talking
about Bam and everything else can kind of just she
can just kind of grinning and smiling about it, and
no one's like she wants to she wants to let
me know that she knows what's going on, that she knows.

Speaker 1 (01:09:26):
Ball I will. This is the last thing I say
about because it was a funny moment. But we watched
the Alabama Tennessee game together and after the pick six
she was shouting. We had to tell her to be
quiet because Scarlett was sleeping because she was screaming at
the top of her lungs. And she goes, sorry, Chef,
exactly like that, So you have I'm just saying, you

(01:09:49):
have all the right in the world that if the
tides turned and y'all beat Bama, you can take a
shot at Miss Amy. I won't. That's what you get
to do when you win, just like last year.

Speaker 5 (01:10:00):
That's on the field. I was like, that's you. That's
why you love the game. Yeah, it's because when you win,
you get to be on top of the world. When
you lose, everything doesn't matter, like life sucks well.

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
And that's why I'm saying, when you do win, you
have a free pass. You can take a shot at
miss Miss Amy is too sweet. I can't number text Hey,
it's part of the game. Can't hear what you're saying now,
can I? Hey? Love working with your son, though I
have a good one. I have a good one. But yeah,

(01:10:31):
the week the weekend was great. It was just a reminder,
it is uh for any parents out there that you
are in a town starting a family that is far
separate away from like your core family or maybe your cousins,
your aunts, et cetera, make sure to prioritize that time

(01:10:52):
with your family, because God, lea needed that. Like I
wouldn't even call it a reset, but just like a
refreshing of just having family around and just like, oh,
there's something so great about it. Dude. Yeah, it was
really really good and just.

Speaker 2 (01:11:08):
A reminder too that those times are precious because you
just don't know how many you're gonna have.

Speaker 1 (01:11:14):
Yes, dude, when y'all were talking about that was out
on the bus when you were talking about the mathematical
equation of how.

Speaker 2 (01:11:20):
Yeah, there's like a graph out there, I know, the
Five Types of Wealth by sa Heel Bloom. Yes, book,
he's got the graphs in there of how much you
see your kids, like you know, when they're born and
when they're in high school and how it starts to
take off in college and when they live on their
own and start a family.

Speaker 1 (01:11:36):
Yeah, and it's just it's crazy to visually see it.

Speaker 2 (01:11:40):
Yes, And so I love that you feel that way,
because I feel like those are the moments of perspective
where just you just enjoy it that much more because
you you just truly don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:11:51):
How many of those times you're going to have.

Speaker 2 (01:11:53):
Yeah, anything else from the weekend you want to hit on?

Speaker 1 (01:11:56):
No, that was really it. The only other thing is
we had to sit at the dinner table and listen
to my mom pitched like forty different grandma names, and
uh we finally we landed on Sonny that's spelled with
an I E. Don't do it with the y. Okay,
Sonny with an I E? And so in an Ie,
No wills as you in an I E because if

(01:12:19):
you spell it wrong, she's not gonna be happy. Okay,
all right, sorry miss Yeah. Seriously it was a big
I mean we talked about it for like forty I
was like, all right with an I E. One of
the names didn't can we just do grandma? There was Queenie,
uh buck all things that have nothing to do with

(01:12:41):
my mother, like no nickname that has ever uh cozy
and I'm just sitting there, but Buck coz Queenie, and
I'm sitting there, I'm going, Mom, when have we ever
called you these things?

Speaker 2 (01:12:55):
Like Mom, You're not even in the realm of grandmother name,
Like you're just trying to rename yourself.

Speaker 1 (01:12:59):
Yeah, we're naming a new dog at this point. What
And so I put that to the PT sixers out there.
How did y'all come up with your grandma names and
grandpa names? Because I don't even know if Sonny's gonna be.

Speaker 2 (01:13:13):
Be it, but I mine, like mine, very old fashioned.
It was grandma and grandpa. And then on my mom's
side because my dad's side grandparents my grand or my
dad's side parents, they were grandma and Grandpa because they
lived in the proximity of Saint Francis County.

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:13:28):
Yeah, my mom's parents who lived h Colorado one point
in Kansas City, but they were in another state, they
were known as Grandma Jerry and Grandpa Charlie. Okay, So
it's just that's what I knew growing up. So when
Charle was coming at me with like, what are we
gonna name? What do you wanted to call your dad?
I'm just like grandpa And she's like, you don't want
like Paul Paul like, I've heard people do that, but

(01:13:51):
I'm just more like, I'm just like a grandma and
grandpa guy. She's like, well, they gotta have something different
from my parents, Like you just don't like Grandpa Grandpa,
Grandpa Alex and Grandma Luisa. But it's more of the
Filipino ties. It's the Filipino version of Grandma and Grandpa,
which is Lola and Nopah loves.

Speaker 1 (01:14:06):
I'm like, okay, I can get on board with that.
I love that, but I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:14:10):
I don't have a dog in the fight when it
comes to helping your mom figure out a name, because
to me, it's it's like she's truly trying to rename herself.

Speaker 1 (01:14:17):
Yes, and I just want she wants me to call
her Sonny, I'll call her son That's what I did.
I leaned into it the whole weekend. I said, Sonny,
here's scarlet, Scarlet, look at your Sonny. Yeah, it's your Sonny.
Say good morning. So yeah, if that's what she wants,
that's what she'll get.

Speaker 2 (01:14:35):
Did you tell your mom like, hey, Mama, want you
to start calling me Thor? Like I'm changing my name
for you.

Speaker 1 (01:14:41):
I'm Thor. Yeah, I'm thor to you now. If anything,
I should be Sonny because my nickname was Sunshine when
I was a little kid, So maybe I should be Sonny. Yeah,
kind of taking my name, but buck cozy, Mom, what
we doing, Queenie, Queenie, there's a whole list I need
to have her Well, that would be actually a really
funny graphic. She has a notes app list of all
of her grandma names since she wanted to go by Gotcha.

(01:15:03):
I'll get that. I would love to see it. Yeah, yeah,
I get that.

Speaker 6 (01:15:08):
The name that my dad's mom selected was what my
brother called her, and so we had grandma and Grandpa
my dad on my mom's side. My dad's mom is
called Manga because that was just what my dumbass baby
brother uttered out of his mouth when he saw her.

Speaker 1 (01:15:21):
So forever she is Manga, which is what I kind
of mess with that. She writes it with an L
at the end, like Mungo. I don't don't, it's Munga.
And I told miss Amy I love you. By the way, Mom,
I'm not mad with you. I'm doing this because it's funny.
I told her. This is Sonny's a placeholder because whatever
Scarlet calls you, that's going to be your name. I
want to go to the manga route of she just

(01:15:44):
you know whatever she says, Seba yeah you, Diba no yeah,
Depa now diba no.

Speaker 5 (01:15:50):
I'm thinking about it. How common is it that grandparents
take it different? Because I had one side of my
family was Grandma and Grandpa, and then the other was
Grandpy and Gigi.

Speaker 1 (01:15:58):
Right, people have a lot of different mall Paul, Paul, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:16:01):
Yeah, now I'm thinking about it. I wonder if it's like,
depending on where you live, everyone dropped drop what your
call your grandparents?

Speaker 1 (01:16:08):
Yes, that's a great call.

Speaker 2 (01:16:11):
Let's get a little there's gotta be a pt sixer
out there. That's like laughing and pointing at the screen
about how Grandma wanted to be called something out like
something like along those lines.

Speaker 1 (01:16:19):
Oh yeah, like my mom told me to call her.
I don't know, Oh dude. I had Julie my grandmother
Juju Charlie chat chaw. George was dad Osh because my
brother couldn't pronounce it, and Diane was Honey cookie because
everyone called her honey, but my brother would always get

(01:16:42):
a cookie at her house, and so he would always say, honey, cookie,
because he wanted a cookie and then it just turned
into honey cookie. That's awesome. There we go. That's all
I had to say about that. I'm ready to move
on my crack of cold one.

Speaker 2 (01:16:57):
I so have a I have a solid cracker cole
one and thinking about it too, because I wasn't. I
didn't talk about it a whole lot last week. But
I had that lunch date with Rue when I came
home on Thursday. Oh yes, my craik, a cold one
is gonna be one on one time with your kids.
I had uh at a time where I came back
last Thursday, I had the afternoon, took Rude to lunch.
We went to Baar Bones Butcher here in Nashville. No
free shoutouts to Barbones Butcher. Loved that spot. It's a

(01:17:18):
great spot. And uh ice cream over at Jenny's. This
week of Charlo takes Rue to London and uh. I'll
get to the quote topic lesson the text that I
ended up sending my wife last night under you know,
I had some vitamins in my system.

Speaker 1 (01:17:33):
It was just kind of in my fields. I forgot
about that, but I was I'm thinking of myself, like why.

Speaker 2 (01:17:43):
I'm just thinking to myself, like why it's all so
important to have the uh one on one time with
your kids because again, life is just so busy you
end up losing sight of some of the some of
these things. Uh not like before it's too late, but
just a lot of times you just think back on
moments where you should have been a little bit more
intentional to have those moments.

Speaker 1 (01:18:03):
Because I'm listening to a video of your show, I Man,
it just made me so sad with Rue and her.

Speaker 2 (01:18:07):
Old voice talking about the trash can recycling and cardboard
and high five in her And so I'm thinking about
why all this one on one time is so important
because I was so fired up for Charlie and Rue
to go to London, to go international, see the world,
see some of these things involving like Peter Pan and
some of the hot spots in London, the landmarks, the parks,
the food, all of that stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:18:28):
Yeah, And if.

Speaker 2 (01:18:31):
Like thinking about why it's all important is when you're
having that one on one time with your kid because
a lot of times when you have that second one,
the first one will not feel abandoned or anything else,
but they just they go the anxiety of that attention
that they're probably going to lose for Mama and dadad,
which then makes them act.

Speaker 1 (01:18:46):
Out and do all these other things.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
And having that solo time to just have conversations with
your little one or just spend quality time without mom
or without the other parent or without your siblings, to
know that you are just focused on them. I'm looking
up things on why it's all important. It protects attachment
and their sense of security and feeling when they're feeling
displaced or they are losing that attention when the new

(01:19:11):
one comes along. It supports that emotional adjustment because again
a lot of moving parts are happening. When a second
kid comes involved, or a third kid, it just gets
that much that time gets that much smaller, and it
helps them with that emotional adjustment of you're having that
focus one on one time to where now when you
come home and you're around the other siblings, or they

(01:19:31):
spend a lot of good time with dad, to where
they almost feel part of whatever solution Dad might be
involved in whenever you get home, versus that jealousy or
acting out and you're kind of wondering why they're acting out,
And then also encourages that healthier siblings relationship. So Rue's
just been a very good big sister and I hope
it continues to go that way. And I think a

(01:19:52):
lot of it will have to do is charl and
I always have in these moments every so often where
we're having that one on one time with Rue, and
then when Scotty becomes a and if we have a
third one, or when Scotti gets an age to know,
big sister does have a lot of first we celebrate
a lot of those, and it seems a little different
for Scotty because she's a second one coming through the first,
so the enthusiasm, they might notice the loss of enthusiasm

(01:20:15):
or comparing it or judging it. So whenever you're having
these one on one times, it encourages that healthy relationship.
Because they have Dad for a day, or they have
one of us for a week, Charlie traveling to London
with r they come back and they're so ready to
pour back into the home because they feel so refreshed
and reset that they spend time with us decreases those

(01:20:36):
moments of acting out in jealousy. Why it's also important
for marriages, the couple satisfaction. Charles and I did that
staycation a couple weeks ago, and just the way it's
it like lowers your stress and helps with the co
parenting because you feel like you had this isolated moment
together without kids, being young again, feel like you're dating
your wife versus your rooming with your wife. Then you

(01:20:57):
come home and you just feel rejuvenated to pour into
the home to where if mom or dad has to
go do a certain thing, you're more prone to say, hey,
I'll handle this because you've had you protect yourselves and
having those those one off moments where you're having date
night a couple times a mornth or once a week,
or a coffee once a week or a staycation, it

(01:21:17):
prooves scope parenting and builds your consistency and emotional availability
for the kids. Like you'll know as you get as
you as Scarlet gets older, and you probably have had
these moments already, But when you have a date night
or whatever set aside for you and in jail and
then you come home, you almost feel like you're that
much more consistent because you don't have this thing weighing

(01:21:38):
on your shoulder of knowing like, man, my wife and
I haven't been putting in time for each other, we're
kind of noticing it, we're kind of feeling it, whether
we're on our phone, whether we're watching a show and
just going to bed, to where you now feel that
consistency a little bit more and you now feel that
like emotional availability that you feel like you can give
more to the kids because you've had this, You've had
these moments with your wife.

Speaker 1 (01:21:58):
So again, my.

Speaker 2 (01:21:58):
Crack of coal one is just thinking on those one
on one time with your kids, also the one on
one time with your wife, and just how much we
need to be cherishing those and being intentional with those,
and how what kind of dividends it pays when you
come back to the house.

Speaker 1 (01:22:13):
You could not be preaching more to the to the
choir on this. That's one of my favorite lessons kracklical
ones you've ever done, because that is what Jill and
I have been facing the most right now with Scarlett
and who are Jill and Sherman as parents now? But

(01:22:36):
also like we're married and we're friends and we want
to spend time with each other, and Sherman needs to
do a way better job of prioritizing time with Jill
as well of setting date nights and We've talked about this, dude.
This is something that I do such a poor job

(01:22:57):
of planning those evenings with Jill and something we want
to get into. We're looking for our first babysitter, and
our first date night is going to be, uh, we're
gonna go see a movie. We're gonna keep it quick,
just go see a movie, come right back home.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
But even then it comes with its challenges when you
the first time you get a babysitter, it's like you're
both kind of on edge. Wife a little bit more,
but you're both on edge. You both kind of feel bad.
You're like, should we be doing this? And I, man,
I can't tell you how I feel, like how important
it's been for me and Charles, like when we do

(01:23:34):
certain things together and get our time together, like we
went to last Sunday, we did a date night to
where I took her to the Dermot Kennedy concert that
was here in Nashville.

Speaker 1 (01:23:45):
That's a ryman and that was a great time.

Speaker 2 (01:23:48):
And just like you feel, you just feel like you're
operating so much more so as a team than just
your managers at the house trying to coexist. Yeah, dude,
and make it all happen and feeling drained, and we
can all think about it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:01):
It all comes out and.

Speaker 2 (01:24:02):
Certain it rears its ugly head at certain times, and
when you actually sit and think about it, you know
it's just because we both haven't been pouring into us yes,
the way we need to, so that way we have
a full cup when.

Speaker 1 (01:24:12):
We come home. This thought crossed my mind, of uh,
and that's why my family being in town was so
incredible too. Of like we went on a morning walk
or like a hike really, and my brother and my
mom pushing Scarlet and I'm sitting there holding Jill's hand
and we're not holding anything or pushing anything. And I

(01:24:34):
literally could not remember the last time I was walking
with Jill and just holding her hand and we didn't
have Scarlet in one of our tests somewhere yes, And
I was like, oh, what a great monte. And I
just brought her in and put her armor or put
my arm around her and was walking with her. And
I was like, Oh, we gotta do way more of this.
I know that's such a small moment, but that kind

(01:24:56):
of illustrates the idea of like we are it's so
desperate for it, Dude, I gotta do a better job
at planning that stuff. I have to.

Speaker 2 (01:25:05):
It's tough for the boys man the planning stuff. It's again,
it's an uncomfortable to new world.

Speaker 1 (01:25:09):
It's a new world, Derek. Not to take us off
the subject, but Derek had a great he illustrated it
so perfectly of what men were built for. Would you
mind running Pt? Six through that? I thought it was
very well said.

Speaker 6 (01:25:22):
So this came off the heels of when Jill said,
can you turn the phone around? And she was getting after,
sure this is what you're talking about? Yes, yes, and
she was just saying, like, you know, these aren't These
aren't hard things to remember. It's two beers, not a
hot dog. And she was doing it in a very lovely,
caring fashion. And I said, I said, Jill, we as men,

(01:25:43):
our brains are built to protect the family from will
to Beast and Walrus's lions and tigers and bears and
criminals and bad things. And we, like the docile Golden Retriever,
have been dumbed down due to the world around us,
where we don't need to worry about wooly mammoths anymore.
And so I said, Joe, it's not that he's not

(01:26:04):
paying attention to you. His brain is firing to protect
you from the world. It's just that the world's a
little different these days. We're not caveman making flames.

Speaker 1 (01:26:14):
Like.

Speaker 6 (01:26:14):
He's not ignoring you, he's protecting you. So if he
misses the little details, Jill, what's what's the end of
the world? Because guess what, you didn't get stampeded by
a wooly mammoth today.

Speaker 1 (01:26:24):
Yeah, he looks at me.

Speaker 6 (01:26:25):
He looks me and goes, it's pretty fucking good, he said,
where's that man?

Speaker 1 (01:26:30):
Like the retrievers that we are. It's that's really good.
That's but we're trying our best. We're just flicking shit.
We're figuring it out. And truly, I'm sitting here going, Okay,
electricity's paid, water's paid, trash went out, this was cleaned up,
this is the her car has gas in it, blah
blah blah, And yeah, I am like, Okay, I didn't
set a resie for a restaurant. I didn't da da da.

(01:26:53):
I need to get that into my rotation. It's not
in my rotation yet, I know. And it's hard, bro.
Thank you very well, said very well.

Speaker 2 (01:27:02):
Said Derek, very well. Said, should we get to uh,
should we get to the hotline? I got to keep
it under an hour. Where are we at right now, Chef?

Speaker 1 (01:27:11):
All right, that's a pretty good pace for hotline pace.
Pretty good pace right before we dive into hotline. Very
quick shout out to fan duel our quick. What are
the odds? Uh segment, what are the chances of your child,
upon birth going to Harvard or an Ivy League school?

(01:27:33):
Would you like to take a guess percentage wise of
the chance of one of your little girls going to
Harvard our Ivy League school. Let's go point zero zero

(01:27:55):
zero three two seven. Okay, some point zero zero? Wait
have what I said, wait to have some faith? Point
zero zero three. You have the real stat. I have
the real sat I'm gonna get y'all's guesses to But
it's point zero zero three two seven.

Speaker 2 (01:28:10):
Zero zero zero three two seven, okay, three zero three
zeros three zero Chef zero, I ain't send my kid there, Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:28:21):
I'm sorry, I'm totally.

Speaker 5 (01:28:25):
I'm fucking with the I'm fucking with the question.

Speaker 1 (01:28:29):
I'm sorry. That's that's on me. This is what guess
with the stat your kid Chef ain't ain't no yea,
you're gonna go to community college. It's like you're gonna
go Knoxville.

Speaker 5 (01:28:44):
You wear the orange, You're going to Nayland Stadium every Saturday,
and half the time you're lofe yes like your dad did.
Don't do five years like your dad did either. I'll
go point zero zero zero one. I'll go four zeros,
oh zero zero zero zero one. I'm gonna put like
getting hit by lightning, it's.

Speaker 2 (01:29:02):
Gotta be worse than your chance to get struck by
lighting gott to be higher than going to Harvard because
they always use that stat with like the NFL. You
have a better chance to get struck by lightning than
playing in the NFL. And I got to think it's
even harder. Maybe, Right, there's.

Speaker 5 (01:29:17):
Four kids that go to like those schools each have
like what a body of like five thousand people.

Speaker 1 (01:29:21):
How many people are in the NFL. It's like two
two thousand something. That's got to be it's got to
it's gotta be more. I'm thinking less. Yeah, forty seven hundred,
I believe is a student body body of undergrad forty seven,
A new flock of forty seven under the coming every year. Yes,
like a class size. Yeah, that that's what we'll see.

(01:29:43):
I see what the anel is, fifty to fifty. They
either do it they don't. Fifty Is that your actual?

Speaker 6 (01:29:49):
Like my actual guesses they either go to Harvard or
they don't.

Speaker 1 (01:29:52):
Okay, so you're going for fifty you either where you don't.
He may have won, Derek, he may have won. And
I'll need I'll need a pt Siko to like do
the math because y'all went too far on the decimals.
It's point zero four to three percent, so I think
fifty percent may Actually that's only no.

Speaker 2 (01:30:15):
Is that you you're saying that's percentage point zero four
to three percent? What are the odds point zero four
to three Yeah, but we will Yeah, you have hundreds level.
But you're trying to you're trying to move it twice
right now to say, no, I'm moving his fifty percent.
I'm moving the decimal on his fifty percent. Trying to
guess because you how many zeros? No, Bro, he's at

(01:30:36):
fifty percent. We're we're at zero. We have a little
bit of a heartbeat at zero, and there's is still a.

Speaker 1 (01:30:41):
Little bit of hard going down.

Speaker 5 (01:30:42):
Throw them one hundred to one thousandth which is to
an allianth, which is doesn't seem like a lot, but
that it's like, that's a lot of hundred.

Speaker 1 (01:30:49):
But we're in the we're in the we're in the
world between zero and zero and one percent. He's at fifty.

Speaker 5 (01:30:56):
But if you think about it, if you go from
point zero one to point zero zero one, you're going
one hundred percent lower.

Speaker 1 (01:31:02):
Today, Man, I'm saying, we're in the world. We're in
the world of zero to minus one percent, right thirdle
one at least something like zero, That's what I'm saying.
We're at least something is something. The answer he just
said is not even like it doesn't even get to
one percent. He's give me the give me the two numbers.

(01:31:24):
I'm doing it right now. I'm like, what is closer
to point zero four to three? Is it fifty or
is it point zero zero zero three seven to two?
Calculating it's not point fifty fifty Okay, uh, it would be.

(01:31:48):
The answer is point zero zero zero three seven two
is closer to point zero four to three.

Speaker 6 (01:31:54):
So will wins, Yeah, margin I almost had you.

Speaker 1 (01:31:59):
No, it is. It is quite close. It is quite close.
So what are the actual odds point zero four Yeah,
point zero four to three is your odds at birth
of attending an IVY league, which is kind of crazy,
but that was fun. I thought I would mix it
up with what are the odds? I get everyone involved? Yeah? Yeah,

(01:32:20):
that to me.

Speaker 2 (01:32:21):
You know, you almost had me like really questioning myself.
I'm like, no, there's three on one right here.

Speaker 5 (01:32:26):
You're doing the math a collective look across all of us.

Speaker 1 (01:32:30):
The argument was there, and I was tripping myself up
because I was thinking, did you have four zeros? I
was thinking that chef chef still chef? A second? There
is he second?

Speaker 2 (01:32:42):
Yes, Bro, we don't gotta check that me and chef
are between zero and one percent.

to that episode this one. I'm a little scared name
our daughter.

Speaker 9 (01:37:13):
Name a daughter he Willie Oneself and Fat Stafford. This
is Seamus Colin from Chandler, Arizona looking for advice on names.
My wife and I are expecting our first girl at
the end of November, and I know is one girl
dad to another. You guys have some fantastic names, Scarlet, Rue, Scottie.

(01:37:41):
They're unique, they're cute, they're sophisticated. I need some advice
on how to pick names with my wife. She has
some favorites and they're not mine, but we've got to
a top three and I want to give her ultimate control.
But I'm interested to see what you guys did with

(01:38:01):
name in your three daughters. Also your opinion on our
top three. Yes, we have Sarah, Fina, Violet, Ocean. Give
me your opinion, appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (01:38:15):
I mean Violet through and through. I kind of mess
with ocean. You mess with Ocean.

Speaker 2 (01:38:22):
I mess with Ocean because Ru's name is Cerulian Cerulian Water. Yeah,
Ocean here.

Speaker 1 (01:38:29):
This is my only thing that I'm going to throw
out there. I like, if this is my buddy running
through these names with me, and he's like, Sherman, what's
your opinion. Ocean's gonna get you. No pun intended in
some deep water deep in middle school. Yeah, she will
get picked off. That's kind of why I like it.

Speaker 2 (01:38:47):
Resilient. Resilience, by the way, is my number one.

Speaker 1 (01:38:53):
Value when we when we talk about the value, we're resilience. Yes,
it's number one. That makes all the sense in the world.
But I do like Violet. What was the other one?
Sarah Fina Sarafina. I like Violet. I like colors. I
like Sarah Fena for the like. You have a ton
of options there, Sarah Fiefee. We would throw or I

(01:39:15):
had a what you're doing right now? Go ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:39:18):
You're just making this that much harder for them because
they've had these conversations with each other.

Speaker 1 (01:39:22):
We're talking about.

Speaker 2 (01:39:23):
Pros and cons for all three names, and my man's
looking for is there one that you guys win at
from those three?

Speaker 1 (01:39:33):
Violet? Okay, I think we're we can. We can get
on board with Violet. Violet's a beautiful name. It's not
fee though, it's do you see what you're doing? I
don't want to do it. Do you see what you're doing?
A Violet is a beautiful name. It's old school. Excuse me,
it's a color which is really fun. We've already done

(01:39:54):
with scarlet, like when she's wearing some scarlet stuff, like, yeah,
it's kind of cute. I like Violet. It sounds like
Chef likes Violet, Derek Violet.

Speaker 2 (01:40:06):
I like Violet. I'm down to go with Violet. Okay,
I just want to give him a name. I want
to give him one name.

Speaker 1 (01:40:10):
You know what I mean. Yeah, And if you're showing
mom this for the first time, uh, hello, welcome. We
think all the options are great, but we selected Violet.
But we think all the options they're all good. Mom.
If you want to go a different direction, I support you,
totally totally support you. But yeah, name or Violet.

Speaker 2 (01:40:31):
But if dad, hey dad, If a mom wants Violet
the most but you don't really care for Violet, just
think like, hey, sweetheart, what if somebody calls.

Speaker 1 (01:40:40):
Her big v take Violet off the list.

Speaker 2 (01:40:46):
But that's just for the survival kid. That's just for
the tool bag if you need it. But if you
love Violet, is.

Speaker 1 (01:40:51):
That I forget? I said that?

Speaker 5 (01:40:52):
Is that like a kind of a nasty dad hack
that if there's a name that you really don't want
you just come up with the nastiest thing.

Speaker 1 (01:41:00):
We kind of an instantly.

Speaker 5 (01:41:03):
If you get a good enough one, she'd be like,
oh fuck, like we can't do that.

Speaker 1 (01:41:08):
Well. I was fortunate is Charle came up with Cerulean. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:41:11):
I liked it off the I liked it. I liked
it out of the jump. And then the second time
with Scotti, Charle wanted boy names. So there are a
lot of cool boy names that I think, go, you know,
flip both ways that I just I liked a lot
of the boy names four girls.

Speaker 1 (01:41:25):
Yeah. One that I'm on right now is Ricky from
Chad Powers.

Speaker 2 (01:41:28):
Oh that's a great name, Ricky from Chad Have you
watched Chad Powers.

Speaker 1 (01:41:33):
I haven't started it yet.

Speaker 5 (01:41:35):
It's a good show. Is sick so much good about it.
I'm on The Diplomat right now on Netflix.

Speaker 1 (01:41:40):
Oh yeah, you were that. That scene came out season three.

Speaker 5 (01:41:43):
I started from season one. I'm on season three now
after three days. It's incredible.

Speaker 1 (01:41:48):
Okay, Jille and I gotta start that tonight because he
pitched me on the show. I need I need to
do we need a good show. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:41:58):
But so I feel like just to finish that up,
I feel like I kind of got lucky, and so
then I just got to kind of lean what the
life wanted to do when when we settled on Scottie
because we got Scotty from the the Suits. Yeah, the
female character in that in that show where she was
named Scotty so and and hey, I wanted Billy, but
you know the friend of the friend they named their

(01:42:19):
kid Billy.

Speaker 1 (01:42:20):
Billy mays here and now she gets to hear that
for the rest of her life. Yeah. Who won? Yeah,
the Comptons. Yeah, and it sounds like you already won.
You got a top three. You won, dude. She's in
the driver's seat. She gave you a top three and said,
what's your opinion, Give her your opinion, let her make
the decision. We're all winning, all winning.

Speaker 2 (01:42:39):
Yeah, we're all We're all gonna win from this. Yes,
I hope that helped. I hope that helped put us
in a tough spot. Tough spot. Fe fee big v ocean, Yeah, ocean. Yeah,

So wanted to come on here and say.

Speaker 1 (01:42:59):
That new father. I can't believe that.

Speaker 8 (01:43:03):
My little girls about to be two weeks old on Sunday.
If it wasn't for y'all, would know anything but what
I'm doing. Uh, it's been the best, it's been the worst.
And I can't be more happy.

Speaker 1 (01:43:17):
I mean, I can't like if.

Speaker 8 (01:43:19):
I if I'm happier, I might freaking explode because it's
so fucking happy.

Speaker 1 (01:43:24):
I I just want.

Speaker 8 (01:43:26):
To let y'all know that everything y'all do, I appreciate it.
And every single day I look forward to hearing something
from y'all. And it doesn't matter. I know you don't
think that you're you know, you're an experts by any means,
but you're the example, and you set in the tone,
and I'm very appreciative that you set in the tone.

Speaker 5 (01:43:46):
I love you, guys. I can't wait to hear more.

Speaker 8 (01:43:49):
And uh, go dogs, that's all I gotta say. Love

Speaker 1 (01:43:59):
Chris? Chris Chris from Georgia. Yeah, Chris Chris down in George.
Shout out Chris, Shout out Chris. I'm so happy for Chris.
I could spontaneously combust. Yeah truly, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:44:13):
And you felt you felt his happiness too, Like it's
such a true, genuine feeling, but also feels like a
force feeling because you're so happy, because there's also so
much suck that comes with.

Speaker 1 (01:44:27):
Parenthood those first two weeks, especially getting on the sticks
with you guys, like pubg late at night and I
I'm like, how am I awake right now? Yeah? How
am I functioning right now? How am I carrying a conversation?
But also you can hear it in your voice, like
how much fun you're having, but how you're also like

(01:44:47):
in the pits of hell at the same moment.

Speaker 2 (01:44:49):
Yeah, because when they're young like that too, it's they're
more like the moments are more so few and far
in between because you're in such a grind.

Speaker 1 (01:44:58):
Yeah, like I could off myself. Yeah, there's a great
video that y'all were referring to. The dad keeps on
crossing the camera at each time he's like time in
my life, Like the things in the background are just
getting worse and worse and worse, and he's getting happier.

Speaker 2 (01:45:19):
And yeah, it does feel like that, dude. It's just
the full embracing of the suck. Yes, it's all it is. Yeah,
Chris is embodying embody.

Speaker 1 (01:45:29):
I could not feel happier or I would explode. Would
I would die if I got happier. Next, next call,
last call. Hey.

Speaker 2 (01:45:40):
By the way, Georgia Bulldog fans too. Like I was
hearing a story the other week. I was at this
I was at this party and a gentleman came up
to me and we were kind of just talking shop,
and he was just talking about how much he hated
Georgia Bulldog fans. He's like, you go into their stadium
and they beat you, and you're you're, you're you're outside
the stadium after people are just barking in your face.

Speaker 1 (01:46:02):
Yeah, they fucking suck. No, there's nothing better than walking
in I went to the TCUSU game with my brother
at Cowboys Stadium and just having literally thousands of people
lined up as TCU fans are walking into the stadium
just going talker bite, tnner bite, talker bite. I loved it.

(01:46:27):
I was like, God, SEC fans are different. So magic
Et barked at that same yeah, same thing where you're
walking into the stadium with little Scottie and little Roue.

Speaker 5 (01:46:43):
Hey, hey, and look, I'll be dead serious here. They
will bark at your five year old kid that's walking there.
Grown men, forty year old men will sit down there
and say the nastiest shit. They pose as nice people,
they're not. They're not good people at all. I'm sure
we love you, Chris, Chris, I'm of course all the
best wishes to you.

Speaker 1 (01:47:03):
Awesome dude.

Speaker 5 (01:47:04):
But when it comes to being a fan, no, they're
They're genuinely awful. They don't get talked enough about how
much they fucking sucked either, because I think that you know,
they they had a rick and stuff, but for a
long time they weren't that good. But they are like
up there with like Bama Florida. Those are the teams
that I have issues with.

Speaker 1 (01:47:21):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, barad, And just keep that in mind
when you're calling in, guys, if you're gonna be saying
those teams, at least give Chef a shout out. At
least you say something nice. Yeah, turn the tide on
it the way he thinks about your team. Yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:47:39):
I would have loved to have heard Chris just start
barking at the end of that voicemail.

Speaker 1 (01:47:42):
Chrits better calling next week and go I have a
dad question this one's actually for him. Do not call
the phone in bark.

Speaker 6 (01:47:53):
I'm begging you, do not call the phone and say, hey,
this is for chef and bark.

Speaker 1 (01:47:56):
Please. And so we were coming home from the date.
Everything's going fine. We walk in and all.

Speaker 2 (01:48:05):
Go dog go dog, Oh my god, Please don't do that.
Don't do don't do that. Don't waste Chef's time on
going through voicemails. And he just has to hear bark
after bark. Hey, he's a chef.

Speaker 1 (01:48:22):
I'm assuming as chef we have we've had a really
tough time lately. We're going through a whole lot. I'll
break it down for you guys, just like ten minutes.
Sob story, voicemailing at the end, none of that's true.
Fuck you, blah blah blah. That just makes me laugh

(01:48:43):
super hard. So sorry, Chef, it's okay.

Speaker 2 (01:48:46):
Like I said, part of the games, I'm just hearing
bark after bark.

Speaker 5 (01:48:51):
I do want to clarify half very quick. I'm sure
there's some fans of Kneeling from the hills that are
not also very nice. Yeah, I can act like we're saints.
In fact, I know we're not saints. I laughed in
a kid's face after we beat him when we beat
Florida two years ago.

Speaker 1 (01:49:06):
So I mean, all been there, all been there, and
it wasn't real one time. You know, I've done it.
Last one.

Speaker 4 (01:49:18):
Here we go, Frilla, what's going on? This is John
from Chicago and I got the.

Speaker 1 (01:49:26):
Weirdest dad hack for you guys.

Speaker 4 (01:49:28):
So, my wife and I we have a ten month
old boy. He does not know how to sleep through
the night. So we're going through the trenches every night
about two or three hours. It's up, gotta get him
back down. It's been a struggle. My wife though, she
talk to one of her friends.

Speaker 1 (01:49:45):
At work who said we should try.

Speaker 4 (01:49:48):
This method when he gets his bath every night, and
it's I'm calling it cabbage soup. Sounds weird, and it
is kind of weird. What we've been doing is we've
been popping up cabbage, boiling it, and then using that
boiled cabbage soup water.

Speaker 1 (01:50:07):
And putting it in his bath.

Speaker 4 (01:50:09):
And now ever since we started it, this week, boys
sleeping through the night and we are starting to feel
like ourselves again.

Speaker 1 (01:50:19):
Don't know why it works, but it's working. So if
there's any other dads.

Speaker 4 (01:50:24):
Out there and your kids are struggling to sleep and
you're in they're in that you know, Todther phase, infant face.
Still go with the cabbage soup man, Chop up some cabbage,
boil it down, toss it in that tub, and hopefully
you get you a kid that's sleeping through the night.
It's been great anyways, Love the podcast, Take Care of Boys.

Speaker 1 (01:50:45):
What the fuck did I just listen? I'll tell you
what you just listened to. I'll pay I'll illustrate a picture.
We're looking at a Djenga tower right now, that's on
one block at the bottom, and that being fucking doing
this don't well done? Well done. That's all I'm gonna say. Well,
that's all you got, That's all I got.

Speaker 2 (01:51:07):
Yeah, I'm the picture I'm thinking of my head is
you're in hell. Yeah, you start going crazy inside and
there ain't nothing off limits that we're gonna do and
try to get this boy down.

Speaker 1 (01:51:20):
Will in those first four weeks with Scarlett, where it
was every two hours, if you had called me and
told me, like Triman, if you stand naked out in
your front yard for everyone to see, and you sing
this song verbatim, Scarlet's gonna go through the night, I
promise you I would have done it. Yeah. I would

(01:51:44):
have been desperate enough to do it.

Speaker 2 (01:51:45):
Yeah. I mean, who would have thought cabbage soup?

Speaker 1 (01:51:49):
I hear boiled cabbage, boiled cabbage, I hear socks. I
gotta look that up. Maybe it's a thing. Have you
ever googled onion socks.

Speaker 2 (01:51:58):
I've heard of onion socks onions and it works, and
there's like actual bit off.

Speaker 1 (01:52:05):
I went into a deep tunnel on onion socks.

Speaker 7 (01:52:09):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:52:09):
You cut up onions, yellow onions, You put them in
the bottom of your kids socks. You put them on
at night when they're running a fever, and there's like
one other thing that it can help treat, and the
antioxidants and the whatever helps sweat out the fever. It's
so weird, dude. It's like a legitimate thing that I

(01:52:30):
don't think doctors are sitting there saying, hey, you put
onions in the socks, but there are like health benefits
to it. It's weird, so boiling cabbage to get your
kid to go to bed. Like I said, the Jenga
tower is almost about the fall and just don't don't
touch it. That sounds great, I'm seeing it.

Speaker 2 (01:52:49):
They must have been in deep on Reddit because there's
no scientific evidence that supports it.

Speaker 1 (01:52:54):
But this is just a floating.

Speaker 2 (01:52:56):
Dad hack that I'm glad you shared, but I'm reading
on Reddit we gave baby boy a lettuce bath last night,
and they're like, uh sheese. Basically, our baby's always been
an amazing sleeper, and suddenly a few weeks ago this
game to an abrupt end. He fights every single nap
people when his eyes are completely glossed over and his
eyelids are heavy. He went from waking up once overnight

(01:53:16):
to now every two to three hours. He went from
sleeping in his crib beside our bed perfectly fine to
whaling the moment we put him in, no cuddles, no sleeping.
He also decided he hates his binking. Now not to
mention every single time he wakes up it's in a rage.
He'll be five months soon, so we figured four months
sleep aggression. Who knows if it's real or not, but

(01:53:37):
clearly something changed for him que the lettuce bath. I
read that giving a baby a remain lettuce bath could
help with sleep. I know it's a bit of a
folksy home remedy, but after two weeks of struggling. I figured,
why not give it a try. This is where this
family's at, this is ten months.

Speaker 1 (01:53:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:53:56):
As I laid him against my shoulder to burp. Oh wait,
about thirty minutes after the we gave him his last
night feed. As I laid him against my shoulder to
burp him, he immediately closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Speaker 5 (01:54:07):
What.

Speaker 2 (01:54:08):
A few minutes later, I put him in his crib,
fingers crossed. I washed him, fuss a little bit, but
gently rocked him back and forth twice, back out Instantly.
He slept in his crib like a chant for five hours.
I'm in disbelief. He still woke up for a night feed,
but immediately went back to sleep. He finally woke up
for the day. He woke up stretching and laughing. I
was in shock. Anyways, not sure if the random lettuce
bath or it was just random better night. But I'm

(01:54:31):
doing it again.

Speaker 1 (01:54:33):
So again. Chop ahead of lettuce, chop ahead of cabbage,
chop ahead of cap, boiling some water and put in
that put in that bath, dude, I'm telling you do it.
Whatever works, why not? Why not? I do have a
quick bathtime story. By the way, I would love to
hear it. We just had the cutest moment with Scarlet.

(01:54:54):
We take her di'pe be off. She's sitting there and
mom's arms. She's about to go into bathtime. She loves
battime and she just gets this cute smile going and
I'm just I want a squeeze her. I want a
squeeze her. And then I see and hey, this might
be what you.

Speaker 2 (01:55:11):
Want to love on her so hard it's like to
the point of suffocation, but you just yeah, I love
him so much.

Speaker 1 (01:55:17):
That is the perfect description of it. And for the
non dad listeners out there, or the non parent listeners,
you might not understand this next part. I might get
I might get some flack for this. Sorry to me.
I see, I see her a little butt, and I'm
just like, this little little booty, What is going on?

(01:55:38):
She's just this little thing. And I go in and
I go, oh, I could almost pinch that butt to
make Jill laugh. And when I go in, like it
was on cue dude, shotgun of poop, shotgun of poop
on you on my hand all over like Jill's arm.

(01:55:58):
But will I'm talking Mike bait like shotgun blasts you
pass my face we were centimeters away from like, I
never want to touch Scarlett again. Don't even look at me.

Speaker 2 (01:56:15):
That's when that pisces you off and you want them
to know some way, somehow that hey, I'm mad at you.

Speaker 1 (01:56:20):
Oh yeah. And five seconds later, of course we like
have her in the bath and she's like, ah, cause
she's laughing. Now it's all funny games. Now he's shitting
on Natty. He shitting on Mama. That funny.

Speaker 2 (01:56:34):
Yeah, you want to see what's funny. You get the
cup of water and you just dump it.

Speaker 1 (01:56:40):
On their head. Oh can you breathe again? Wait, where's
the laugh going? Where's the small You're not laughing anymore?
Easier that go? Oh no, but dude, we're talking. Just
start waterboarding. It is funny and bad time. They all
accident if you'all never participated in a bad time, the

(01:57:04):
smallest little drop of water could accidentally brush over their
eyelash and it's like somebody punched them in the like, And.

Speaker 2 (01:57:12):
You're trying to get it down to a science on
just the line of how far can I get a
little enough to where he like gets off their heads?

Speaker 1 (01:57:18):
Yes, Oh, it's so true. It is. There's like on
the crown of her head. I know exactly where the
water needs to hit, where it will go to, where
it'll be right here, But it gets the exact spot
that you need. Uh huh. Yeah, yeah, you've always learned
about that. You do, wait mane being a dad, so
cool man. You'll enjoy your video games and eating pizza

(01:57:43):
and watching football. Yeah comments or emails emails. Yeah, an
you rip one? Yeah mm hmmm hmmm.

Speaker 2 (01:57:56):
Let me see here, I got Nick guy E, Tyler
Knox in Jose Lera. Let's go, I will do I'll
do Nick Giles first. All right, here we go. This
one's on Instagram. This week, I found myself very fortunate
and blessed.

Speaker 1 (01:58:12):
I had to work.

Speaker 2 (01:58:13):
I had a work accident and drove my work truck
off a mountainside about thirty feet down. Jesus flipped one time,
for sure, but I was able to walk out on
my own accord. All I could think about was my
wife and my sons. Someone was looking out for you.
Boy above. Listening to the Boys forty eight hours after
a near death experience brings things into perspective. Focus on

(01:58:35):
your little circle, be present, and remember us dads can
get through anything.

Speaker 1 (01:58:38):
Pet Siko out. Bro. By the way, he tagged me
in a picture of the crash, and I replied back
and was like, oh my god, dude, I'm like the
fact that someone walked away from this is crazy. I'll
send that to y'all. It was, I mean, showed on

(01:58:59):
the episode you after the episode, dude, the fact he's
a lot there's a tree branch quite literally like almost
going through the windshield. Not a tree branch, a tree trunk.
And you can see the cliff face like in the back.
It's like.

Speaker 2 (01:59:15):
They glad you're here with us, buddy, Yeah, glad that
that'll get you into perspective. Yeah, because I know, like like,
do you think about it as a day, like, man,
what if something happened to me? Or what if something
happened to mom and you're without you know, you're without
the other parent. My family's growing up without.

Speaker 1 (01:59:32):
Dude. I think about that type of stuff all the time.
What was it called when you performed the act of
riding shockwave?

Speaker 7 (01:59:40):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (01:59:40):
What is that? Like? You not conceive? Is it conceived?
Do what though? Like when you have sex like coitus?
But was that called like I was conceived? Instee conceived?
A week after a maybe a couple of days after
a drunk driving accident that my was in. He was

(02:00:00):
hit head on by a drunk driver and the EMTs
were like, where's the driver of this vehicle? And my
dad's sitting there. All he had was like maybe a
broken nose or something. He's like me. They're like, no, buddy,
you're concussed that nobody survived from this. He's like, no,
I was the driver in that vehicle. It's crazy.

Speaker 2 (02:00:18):
I wouldn't be here. Yeah, man, all battle staff, Nick
Glad you're all right, bro.

Speaker 1 (02:00:26):
Joe Saba sends us an email. Joe says, what's up, boys,
Joe here from Chicago. Longtime bust and listener found out
I was going to be a dad a little before
this pod started and been taped, and since episode one,
baby Boy is due in February. I got the original
PT six shirt hanging in my closet ready for the
d date, like I'm getting ready for an All Star game.

(02:00:49):
I can't wait until this little dude is here. I
finally got the wife to start tuning in. It instantly
became a weekly sit down to watch you guys on YouTube.
I knew we finally when she hit me with a
good one evening. We truly feel you guys have given
tips lessons that we will one hundred percent remember and
every parent can learn from. We can't wait to keep

(02:01:11):

up about your parenthood. You guys got us laughing and

I love that he's wrapping up PT six shirt again
BWTB dot com for your Papa Team six gear.

Speaker 1 (02:01:41):
There's now three iterations of it and to go off
and to go off that one.

Speaker 2 (02:01:45):
I have two here that are expecting fathers probably share
a lot of the same, you know, scares that are
coming up. This one's talks on Instagram. I'm not a
part of Papa Team six yet, but I listen every weekend.
I'm putting it, all of it in my memory bank.
I'm about thirty days out from getting engaged, and it's
striking me that fatherhood is closer than ever for me.
I wanted to thank you, by the way, congratulations congrats

(02:02:07):
on getting on thirty days out from getting engaged.

Speaker 1 (02:02:10):
So he's not engaged yet.

Speaker 6 (02:02:12):
Looking back on it, what we might want to do
is restart and run that as an anonymous because it
didn't hit me. I read it and it didn't hit
me to right now that like if we may have
fucked up, so yeah, I might. I should have wrote
a big old anonymous on that, son. I don't know
why I hold the micause we're cutting this ship. Should
hold a big old anonymous on it, all right. I
didn't even he didn't even stay, don't mention?

Speaker 2 (02:02:32):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm sitting putting again on thirty days
out from getting engaged. Yeah, I'm thinking, buddy, well we're
we this is now. If you're his girl, maybe she's
maybe she tunes in the for the dads.

Speaker 1 (02:02:45):
Who knows? Is he wanting us to do something?

Speaker 2 (02:02:47):
No, I'm just I'm just saying, like he's saying, he's
not engaged yet, he hasn't proposed wife, he doesn't know
this is coming. Yeah, and he's letting us know he's
thirty days out. I'm just saying, would have said what if?

Speaker 1 (02:02:57):
The what if?

Speaker 2 (02:02:58):
Anybody who's connected? I was going to keep saying this
first and last name. Listen to this as I Hey,
you got an engagement coming your way here in about
twenty five days.

Speaker 1 (02:03:09):
Does he have like a message for us? Probably it's
a whole it's a whole thing.

Speaker 2 (02:03:13):
But I'm just I was catching myself as I'm reading it, like,
hang on a second.

Speaker 1 (02:03:16):
Yeah, And again that's why I'm like, if we're part
of the secret, what do we do? We could also
just hold that one off.

Speaker 6 (02:03:21):
I'll bring it back like the episode before what thirty
days from comment?

Speaker 2 (02:03:25):
Just silence when I'm saying his name. Just silence when
I'm saying his name, So we get you know, yeah, yeah,
my boys? Should you know you can't.

Speaker 1 (02:03:32):
Put your name. You gotta let us know.

Speaker 2 (02:03:34):
Hey, you got to say anonymous to start this, start
this email, or start this comment.

Speaker 1 (02:03:38):
We're going to keep this person anonymous. They didn't ask
us to keep them anonymous.

Speaker 2 (02:03:42):
We're helping him out. We're helping him out. Okay, here
we go. I wanted to thank you all for making
this podcast. I've been a busting fancis damn near the beginning.
I grew up with an abusive and then absent father
and left me with really no idea how my father
should act. And obviously you pick up knowledge from others
as you move through life. However, this show is open
up my eyes the intricacies of fatherhood and kind of
what it looks like as someone who didn't have a

(02:04:04):
father in the home.

Speaker 1 (02:04:04):
That is huge for me.

Speaker 2 (02:04:06):
Thank y'all again for making these every week. I just
wanted to share from the perspective of someone younger. I
am twenty two trying to wrap my head around what
it even matters to be a father. Y'all are awesome,
keep up through great work and.

Speaker 1 (02:04:18):
What y'all do. Thank you, bro. It fires me up
there you're twenty ticket bleep that out, Hey buddy, Hey buddy,

That's cool, man, that's cool, It's cool. This one's also
from this one. Not also this one is from jose
Leira on Instagram. Thank y'all for acknowledging my reposts. I'm
about to be a new to the dad community. Come February,
shout out, Jose. Every time I have a concern, I
come to yall's page and reassure myself that I'm more

(02:04:47):
than capable of being an amazing dad. Please keep doing
what y'all are doing because you have little guys like
us looking up to y'all.

Speaker 1 (02:04:53):
Boys. Much love from Dallas, Texas. Hey, big D, Big D,
come on. And that was Jose.

Speaker 2 (02:05:01):
That was Jose. Common theme there, common theme all day.
Everybody's scared when they go into fatherhood. Yeah, dude, everyone's
scared for the next the opportunity that comes and the
responsibility that comes with fatherhood, just like anybody taking on
a massive new position, a new you know, a new
step in their career, a new step in life. Fatherhood

(02:05:21):
being one a new title, new big responsibilities. As you're
sure you're not ready for that, you're scared about. No
one's prepared, no one's ready.

Speaker 1 (02:05:30):
Can you run me through really quick, just what I
was like when I brought that up to you at
that coffee when you asked me about are me and
Jill ready to have kids? How did I answer that question?
You were terrified?

Speaker 2 (02:05:42):
Yeah, you were like, I don't think like I'll be
good enough, like I don't think I'm ready to be
a dad, and it scares you.

Speaker 1 (02:05:49):
The thought of having kid scares you.

Speaker 2 (02:05:50):
And because sum was also telling me you gotta stop
posting rue because it's given Jill massive baby fever. You
were doing means zero zero favors, and I could tell
how nervous you were. But now you know, it's like, dude,
I was like the same way. Now you know, looking
back on it's like, dude, you're just you're not prepared.

(02:06:11):
You just got to dive in and embrace everything that
comes with it and do your best to like whatever
it is, read, listen to stuff, study, whether it's our
show clips, whatever it is, Like you just put that
much work in the fatherhood that you've done with the
most important thing in your life, and it'll kind of
that'll kind of guide you.

Speaker 1 (02:06:28):
It is the ultimate challenge that will continuously be the
ultimate gift. Yeah, always because it sucks, but it is
it does.

Speaker 2 (02:06:37):
That is why you feel so highly about it, and
it makes you so happy in some of these moments
and parts of like those scenes or moments of perspective,
like they're so high because you experience such suck. Yeah,
like anything great, anything anything that is great in your
life or feels great now, it's nine percent of the

(02:07:00):
time because you're looking back on all the trial and
tribulations you had of getting to that moment and now
you feel so high and so free on it. Yeah,
you know there's work that you've got to continue to do,
but it's no different than fatherhood other than you experience
them that much farther. That range get that gets that
much wider because it's such a high and a love
that you've never experienced in your life. But with that

(02:07:21):
feeling comes like ultimate like new lows and challenging thoughts
and failures and things that you that suck about it, and.

Speaker 1 (02:07:28):
Those might happen in a five minute span from each other.
Of me coming home exhausted from work. I want to
have the worst attitude when I walk in the door.
What do I find?

Speaker 3 (02:07:39):
Dude?

Speaker 1 (02:07:40):
I hope you mentioned the streaks on the floor right now?
Oh yeah, and what do I find? Scarlett is screaming
her head off because it's the witching hour and I'm
sitting there and I'm got the worst attitude in the entire.

Speaker 2 (02:07:50):
Mom's been texting you on the way home. Hey, when
you getting back? When you getting back.

Speaker 1 (02:07:54):
When you get back, forgot to pick up down? Yeah,
walk in the house, screaming's going on happening, yes, And
then and then you finally get the you finally get
Scarlet down. You're in bed, and what's the what's the
next thing I want to do? I want to get
on the Nana app, watch my kids sleep and tell
my wife I just want to squeeze her. I love
her so much? What what? How did that happen? In

(02:08:15):
ten minutes, we'll sit there and it's like you'll see him,
You'll see him on the monitor. It's like, man, aren't
they the best?

Speaker 2 (02:08:24):
You're like they are, and then you kind of pause
for a moment and you're like, you know, unless they're
doing X, Y and Z, you like, think of a
few moments that they've had recently that she.

Speaker 1 (02:08:30):
Just chapped your ass.

Speaker 2 (02:08:31):
Yeah, But when they're asleep and they just look, Scarlet
look amazing, quite.

Speaker 1 (02:08:36):
Literally shit all over us. And five minutes later we're
in bed looking on our little Nana cam, going, She's
the cutest thing in the world, isn't she? Well, when
she doesn't on my hand, yeah, when she ain't doing that,
she got her Daddy's gut so she'd be shitting This
one comes from B Haynes fifty three What Up fellas

(02:08:57):
huge fan of the show. I've been watching this pod
all summer long in preparation for our baby girl coming
this October. Hello B Haynes. Last Thursday night we welcomed
our firstborn daughter, Lily, to the world. I'm so beyond
fired up to get to work being the best at
I possibly can. It's now six days with the little one,

(02:09:20):
and so far I've changed about one hundred diapers, scrubbed
every bottle in bump part countless simes, and lost many
hours of sleep taking care of my girls. Good good,
good job. Dad. You're crushing, but every damn second is
worth it because I get to be a dad today.
The wife. You broke down in tears selling me how
amazing and supportive I've been, not just through the first week,

(02:09:42):
but the entire pregnancy. Let's fucking go. Let's fucking go.
So I just wanted to give a huge thank you
to Sherman Will and the rest of the PT six
community for all the tips, tears and dad hacks that
got me this huge w We're just getting started. Love
you guys. Flex emoji take out the trap. Dude. Hey,
that's so sick. Dude, that's yeah, yeah, Yeah, that's a

(02:10:05):
really big win for b Hayes. Dude. You know how
many dads are getting that message. I mean that's.

Speaker 2 (02:10:12):
Dads that are in the BT six community. Yeah, I
mean you know what I mean. Yes, it's like seeing
It's like seeing a teammate just flourish. Yeah, because the
process has helped him out. Hey, coach just pulled me
into the office. I'm starting next week. Yeah, let's fucking
yeah you are. That gets me fired up.

Speaker 1 (02:10:30):
Matt Savio from Instagram fellas Matt Savio here out of
Saint Louis, Missouri, shot at the Big Mo yep. A
huge fan of the pod. Although I am not a
dad yet, I am a proud uncle too. Sophia, Sianna, Laney, Camille,
and George also got another nephew coming in March of
twenty six. Anyway, got a potential idea for a segment

(02:10:51):
on the pod if y'all like it, Here's what I'm thinking.
Each month, a dad or mom sends in a video
as their application for Dad or Mom of the Month.
They basically give a valedictorian type speech or reason why
they deserve the honor of the graduating class of that month.
Kind of thinking it would be for first time parents,

(02:11:12):
while let y'all decide the details. Obviously, there are a
lot of ways you could go with it. Maybe each
valedictorian receives a patcher or some special merch maybe hosts
a Zoom happy hour or something cool for the twelve
honorees in a year, or something similar to will I
am an idea? Guy? You guys still in the blanks,
thank you for the entertainment. GBR, GBR GBR. I love

(02:11:34):
the idea. I like the idea.

Speaker 2 (02:11:36):
It's almost like a framework from that too, is the
application has to come from the spouse.

Speaker 1 (02:11:43):
Ooh, that's mandatory. Yeah, that's mandatory, I think, yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:11:49):
Yeah, yeah, you mess with that one. That should be
absolutely man like. You shouldn't be writing about yourself.

Speaker 1 (02:11:55):
You would be disqualified if you wrote in about yours
and not to say b Haynes saying like hey, my
wife said, you know he's not trying to win anything.
No no, no, no, no, no, yeah you can't. You can't be.
It's got to be a video. They got to submit
a video.

Speaker 6 (02:12:14):
We please get it through the email too, because I
don't want like a million of videos.

Speaker 1 (02:12:18):
We won't do it yet. We got to take the
idea into the thing thing I was. Yeah, yeah, that
was an idea. Okay, that was an idea.

Speaker 2 (02:12:27):
We're in a brainstorm yet, sweetheart.

Speaker 1 (02:12:35):
That is this thing. They do it for the dads.
It's called Dad of the Month. I love the winning.

Speaker 2 (02:12:38):
I know you said some things last week. Would you
might make it a video? And for the love, I
think the written one you'll get more. Written one you'll
get more. But who's to say you don't got a
what wife? You gotta get your past with your email
really quick. I'm the best walks of her exist.

Speaker 1 (02:12:56):
Not to say spouse, not to say PT sixers would
do it, but it would also be kind of fun
to see video submissions.

Speaker 2 (02:13:06):
Yeah, we'll think on it. We thank you for that idea. Yeah,
because you can do something fun there, kyriad, this is
my last one.

Speaker 1 (02:13:16):
Okay, like a long one. Go ahead, keep it under
an hour? How long we been going, chef, fuck go ahead?
Erica Giles Instagram writes in hello gentlemen, Milk Team six here,
I just wanted to share a quick story about my husband,
Nick Giles He's a huge fan of your podcast. He's
been a part of Papa Team six from the start.

(02:13:38):
He listens every week and he has gotten me hooked too.
He's purchased tons of your merch and even bought a
shirt he planned to wear after I gave birth to
our second son, though he accidentally ordered the wrong size,
so now I've claimed it. He's such a hard worker,
long hours every day and make sure our boys and
I never go without, and your podcast is one of
the things he looks forward to the most each week.

(02:14:00):
This week was actually, uh, this week he was actually
in an accident, and even while sitting in a hospital
bed in the er, he was making sure to keep
you all updated. Oh, this is the truck guy. That's crazy.
Oh this is Nick. Yeah, this is Nick. That's crazy. Sorry,
sitting at a hospital in the er, he was making

(02:14:21):
sure to keep you all updated. The very next day,
he was already trying to get back to work while
proudly wrapping his new Halloween shirt from you guys. He's
the biggest fan and even better dad, and after the
this week's, after the this week he's had, I think
he deserves a little shout out from his proud wife.
I've I've interacted with Nick several times. He is not

(02:14:45):
only a PT Sickoh, he is a Tier one Nick.
Nick is a good dude. We gotta shoot him something, Yeah,
we need We'll shoot him something.

Speaker 2 (02:14:54):
I'm glad he's okay to like even hearing his wife
right about him and everything else.

Speaker 1 (02:14:58):
He's even a better dad.

Speaker 2 (02:14:59):
Like you can only imagine how scared they both were together.

Speaker 1 (02:15:03):
Dude, I don't want to go to that place. But
we were talking about that earlier today of like, if
anything happened to Jill, I'm just like, I don't know
what I would do. I don't know what I would do. Yeah,
I'm just glad he's he's safe. Yeah, I'm glad. Glad.

(02:15:24):
You have very funny tweets. By the way, he's a
good follow for anybody that's in the Tier one PT
six community. He's active on there. You'll have to remind
me which profile he is. Yeah, I'll tag you. He's
in our replies a lot. He has funny replies. Yeah,
he's a sick. Oh would you like to take his home? Brother?
Do you have a quote topic lesson? I do?

Speaker 2 (02:15:46):
It was your homework assignment? Okay, yeah, the values, Yes, yes,
the values? What is a value? And again I know
we're what are we we doubling up?

Speaker 1 (02:15:54):
Here?

Speaker 2 (02:15:54):
Are we over to to eighteen? We did as what's
a value that you would love? We'll hit it on
next week. Let's do next week? Do values next week, We'll.

Speaker 1 (02:16:08):
Do We'll go over values next week because again it's
a week over two hours right now and we could
get more submissions.

Speaker 2 (02:16:13):
Yeah, so we have the homework here from last week
was what is a value you hope to instill in
your child for the rest of time as they grow up?
What is what is like the most important value? And
I know that's hard because there's many values where you
want to instill instill in them. But I have a
few here that we were going to run and I
would like it to kind of have its own, its
own moment, because we're gonna have you know, we're at

(02:16:35):
two eighteen.

Speaker 1 (02:16:35):
We're at two eighteen? Can I can I very quickly
just throw it out to the community. We were not
upset with the amount of submissions at all, just a
further challenge of submit those values that you would want
to pass along to your child in the comments in
our DMS because we would love to go over those
submissions when we go over this next week. Yeah, yeah,

(02:16:57):
we appreciate y'all's input and we would love more.

Speaker 2 (02:17:01):
Yes, yes, all, I pretty much have. Dude, it's not
even like a quote topic or lesson surm. The other day,
showed me a video that he made because I failed
to take out the trash like the last why I
said last week, I failed to take out the trash
the last couple of times, and he made this funny video.
It's you guys will already see. It'll be out on

(02:17:22):
socials by now, but he made a funny video where
in part of that video, I'm sitting there with Rue
and Ru's going through like the trash can recycling and cardboard,
and it kind of just made me super sad, just
hearing her little voice because I tell sher, I'm like, dude,
she's so young there, and I'm like, oh, I mean
she's only three years old, but she's just so little
and hearing her voice, yeah, like telling me high five

(02:17:43):
and high five, And.

Speaker 1 (02:17:46):
It just had me thinking and kind of sulk, and
I listened to the Fray all the way home.

Speaker 2 (02:17:49):
I got home, I took some vitamins and then at
that point, I'm just in my own head thinking about
life and everything else. And I shot Charo a message
my good night text because she was in London, and
I basically center a text because I was just I
was just your boy was in his fields, and I

(02:18:11):
was just like, get in bed, love, Hope you feel
better when you wake up in the morning. She said
she wasn't feeling very well before she went to bed,
but I said, I also hope you're enjoying every moment
with Rue, because it's really badass what you're doing, and
right now in her life, there's nothing else she'd rather
be doing than spending time with us, So enjoy every second.
And I feel like I got to that point because

(02:18:32):
Ruth's all about us right now, and our kids they're
gonna be about you when they're young. But even seeing
that clip of the video to where she's fired up
to us, she's telling me about recycling and carbo, this
is the cardboard trash can, this is the recycling one,
and high five and then what did she say, Now
you go dad ass.

Speaker 1 (02:18:50):
Or you turned out? Say it? Yeah, dad, dad say it?

Speaker 2 (02:18:53):
And it's like that's a moment that now those excitement
feelings are different, like she's fired up to show me
stuff she draws school or coloring, or it's not like
how simple, Hey dad, that's a trash can. How fired
up are you? It's like she wants to show you
more impressive stuff. You have to impress her with different
things and other like hey, you know what a trash
can is? In high five? Like I have to hold

(02:19:14):
out my hand to get some high fives at times
because they're just growing up and think about us as adults,
like I think now, like I was so down the
rabbit hole of my feels with the vitamins in my system.
Then I'm even thinking about my dad and my parents
because the age that we're at now, like what are
the interesting things that our parents try and want to

(02:19:35):
connect with us on. It's so hard for them because
we are now grown ass adults.

Speaker 1 (02:19:40):
And when you're in high school at.

Speaker 2 (02:19:41):
The time where every day it's like whenever they turn thirteen, Bro,
I'm telling you, when they turn thirteen, it's just a
different they're different animals, the hormones and everything else. But
the moments to connect with your kids and be having
interest or like challenging yourself to be interested in what
they're interested in, especially when they're older, it's so fucking hard.
I am imagine it's so damn hard because I'm thinking

(02:20:02):
back to what I was when I was growing up,
and then even like even as a young man, the
interest for my old man would just be like sports.
Right if I was going to impress my dad, I
was going to be like sports, or if I felt
like he was taking interest to me, it'd be more
so with sports than anything else. Mom would love school
and all that, but you knew dad like it wasn't
It felt like the connectivity was through sports. But when

(02:20:22):
they are this young, they are obsessed with everything and
all they want is your time.

Speaker 1 (02:20:28):
All they want is your time.

Speaker 2 (02:20:30):
Like Rue, I know is having the greatest time in
the world because she's in London. She feels like a
big girl because she's traveling with Mama. She's sleeping in
bed with mom. They're getting room service, they're going to
the park, They're doing all these things that just fires
ru up. And she's probably so happy spending that time
with her mom. She was probably so pumped to be
getting ice cream and lunch with their dad.

Speaker 1 (02:20:49):
When we had our little daddy daughter and everything else
because they have your attention, and.

Speaker 2 (02:20:53):
All that fires all that fires them up right now
is your attention, and so it's just like all I
say is just cherish every damn moment because some of
those interests and that some of the way that they
develop is it's not always going to be mom and
Dad are the coolest people in the world and like
wanting to help take care of Scotti. They're gonna get
to an age at some point where you're studying and

(02:21:15):
battling trying to figure out how to connect with them
through their interests because it's not as simple as you're
showing me what a trash can of recycling bin and
a cardboard bin looks like it more, and you're so
fired up that it's like I sit there and look back.
I was like, I'm so I'm happy that I'm giving
her a high five, but I wish I'd go back
to that moment to be even more excited for because
I'm never getting that moment back again.

Speaker 1 (02:21:38):
So you can imagine when I'm sending that textause I'm.

Speaker 2 (02:21:40):
Like sending her this long text for good night, and
I'm just like, dude, it's so badass what you're doing.
I hope you're enjoying it because Rue is having the
greatest time of her life right now. So anybody with
young kids, or you're gonna have young kids, just you
are their world right now, and just embrace it so
much and cherish it because it's not gonna be forever her.

Speaker 1 (02:22:01):
That's the whatever, that's the that's the end. That's the ending.
Very well, very well said, and all the all the
photos coming from London, dude, I've just been smiling with
all of it. She is giving big girl energy. She
is looking like just a little girl with like her outfits.
And when you brought up like the video and I'm

(02:22:23):
watching the video. I'm not even Ruth's parent, and I'm like, oh, Bruce,
tiny in this, Oh my gosh. And the only example
of that that I have is the nanet that we use.
Our little nannycam has kind of like a yearbook kind
of memories. Yeah, yeah, play for you. And oh, dude,

(02:22:44):
I've watched this little video of me waking up Scarlet
and she's still in her tiny sleepsack and her head
it's smaller than my hand, and I'm just like, my god.

Speaker 2 (02:22:54):
You were so little, you were so little. It broke
my heart have me tearing up to Yeah. So this
is the greatest job in the world.

Speaker 1 (02:23:04):
Yeah, it's a good one.

Speaker 2 (02:23:06):
Our story now is being a father. Yeah, and it's amazing.
And I just hope nobody takes it for granted. Yeah.
If you feel like you do, man, there's change the mentality.
You get to do it literally right now. Yeah, I'm
just thinking about Scottie smiling right now. I just want
to get home to her and kiss her so much
and smother with love. Let Daddy give his paws on

(02:23:31):
you away.

Speaker 1 (02:23:36):
That's it. That's it for me.

Speaker 2 (02:23:38):
Yeah, all right, perfect, take out the trash. This was
for the dad's pet Sikos. We love you, We appreciate you.
Go be great, man, Hey, go be great.

Speaker 1 (02:23:48):
Shout out Dustin McLoughlin, one of my really close friends
just found out they're having a kid shout out. Shout out,
shout out, Shout out Papa Team six.

Speaker 2 (02:24:02):

story about Hector the Bat urgently trying to find a
Halloween costume for the Halloween parade. With his friends, parents involved,

(02:24:23):
We change our voices, we have we We have a
lot of fun with this story. I hope you enjoy it.
If you're listening, make sure you're following and subscribe to
our for the Dad's Channel. Happy Spooktober, Happy Halloween, and
enjoy this Halloween bedtime story.

Speaker 1 (02:24:43):
Twas the night before Halloween, the forest creature's favorite holiday.
The moon glowed bright, and the whole forest was elated
with anticipation, except Hector the bat. Hector hung upside down
on his branch, clearly upset.

Speaker 3 (02:25:05):
Oh no, I've done it again.

Speaker 7 (02:25:08):
I've waited for the last second to find a perfect
Halloween costume.

Speaker 3 (02:25:12):
Why do I do this every year?

Speaker 1 (02:25:15):
Milo the Mouse scampered up cheerfully with a pumpkin bucket,
dressed up as his Halloween costume, a cupcake. Hector?

Speaker 3 (02:25:26):
Hector? Is that you?

Speaker 1 (02:25:28):
Hey? Milo? Hector replied Hector, what's wrong, buddy?

Speaker 7 (02:25:34):
Oh? Nothing, I just made the most huge mistake in
my entire bat life and forgot to pick out a
Halloween costume for the forest Halloween Brain tomorrow.

Speaker 6 (02:25:45):
Oh Hector, don't you worry. We'll figure it out together.

Speaker 1 (02:25:50):
We can go on a quest to find your costume.

Speaker 6 (02:25:53):
And you know what they say, adventure makes the best ideas.

Speaker 1 (02:25:59):
Sammy the world leapt from a branch, his tail flicking dramatically.
Sammy also had his costume on and was dressed up
as Superman, his favorite superhero. Hello Franks, I couldn't help
it over here that you're going on an adventure? Have
you heard of the secret costume shop in the misty Meadow?

(02:26:23):
Both Hector and Milo looked blankly back at Sammy, shaking
their heads.

Speaker 3 (02:26:29):
No, don't worry, I know a shortcut to get us there.

Speaker 1 (02:26:35):
As if on cue inbounded Benny the Puppy, stumbling over
his own paws with his tail wagging. Benny also had
already gotten his costume and was dressed up as John McClain,
specifically from Diehard Too.

Speaker 2 (02:26:54):
Don't forget about little old Benny the Puppy. I love
to help, and we can't find one. We'll make you
a costume, Go big Red.

Speaker 1 (02:27:03):
The friends laughed together, and Hector felt a little better
as they started following Sammy towards the shop. Sammy first
led the group towards the pumpkin patch, filled with beautiful
orange pumpkins and glowing with rows of orange lanterns.

Speaker 6 (02:27:25):
Look at all these pumpkins, Hector, you could always go
as a pumpkin bat.

Speaker 3 (02:27:30):
A pumpkin bat. That sounds silly.

Speaker 6 (02:27:34):
Well, it's okay if your Halloween costume is silly, Hector.

Speaker 1 (02:27:39):
Benny wagged his tail in agreement.

Speaker 2 (02:27:42):
That's right, Sammy. They can be silly, or spooky or
even awesome. For example, if I had all the money
in the world, I would be wearing a movie gray
replica of William Dafoe's green goblin suit from the two
thousand and two Colt classic The Spider Man Movie.

Speaker 1 (02:28:00):
Everyone turned slowly to Benny the Puppy and stared confused.
Bart Oh, okay, well, I just don't feel like a
pumpkin is the costume I want.

Speaker 3 (02:28:14):
The secret costume store will have what I'm looking for, right, Sammy.

Speaker 1 (02:28:19):
Of course, all we have to do is cross the
rickety bridge and then head through the misty meadow, and
we're there. Milo pulled out his binoculars and looked in
the distance.

Speaker 6 (02:28:33):
Hey, guys, I see a bridge up ahead that looks
extra spooky.

Speaker 1 (02:28:38):
We're on the right path. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:28:41):
That bridge looks like it smells like goodwitted, fam.

Speaker 1 (02:28:46):
What's good with it. Fam Benny snickered, Oh, Benny, what,
I didn't even say nothing. The gang kept moving, heading
towards the rickety bridge. And as the group made its
way towards the rickety bridge, Milo thought about who would

(02:29:08):
have made the bridge, and he got an idea.

Speaker 6 (02:29:11):
Hector, why don't you go as a lumberjack bat That
would be festive?

Speaker 3 (02:29:17):
No, thanks, my loan, I don't really think a lumberjack
baptist for me.

Speaker 1 (02:29:22):
Yeah, my low, what are you thinking?

Speaker 2 (02:29:24):
Approximately fifteen billion trees are cutting down each year by lumberjacks,
effectively removing forty one million acres of trees annually climate
change deforestation. Not to mention the fact that Hector looks
terrible in a flannel. It makes his bath hims look
whiter than they already are. Matter of fact, he looked
great as a corn husker.

Speaker 1 (02:29:46):
Everyone turned slowly to Benny the Puppy and stared confused. Wolf,
don't worry, guys, the store has everything we could want.
I know, we'll find a costume there for everyone. The
friends headed deep down into a meadow, where they discovered

(02:30:07):
a large oak tree with long winding limbs. Sammy the
squirrel pointed towards the tree, his eyes wide.

Speaker 3 (02:30:19):
That's it. That's the engines to the store, right there.

Speaker 1 (02:30:23):
All the friends looked up at the spooky tree together hopeful.

Speaker 3 (02:30:29):
There's a sign at the door. What does it say?

Speaker 1 (02:30:33):
Milo climbed on top of Hector's head to get a
better look at the tree.

Speaker 6 (02:30:39):
Oh no, Hector, the store is closed. The sign reads
wife in Labor store closed to further notice.

Speaker 1 (02:30:50):
Let's go Pt.

Speaker 7 (02:30:52):
Six.

Speaker 1 (02:30:54):
The group all stared at the sign. Defeated Hector.

Speaker 3 (02:31:00):
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 1 (02:31:03):
In all my years of coming here, I've never seen
it closed.

Speaker 3 (02:31:08):
It's not your fault, Sammy. It just thinks that now
I don't have a costume for the parade.

Speaker 2 (02:31:14):
Honestly, guys, we could probably file a complaint for misinformation
with the Better Business Bureau. Although there's no legal penalty
for closing without proper notice, we could most likely sue
due to breach of contract or fraud in deception.

Speaker 1 (02:31:30):
Neither we'll hold up in court.

Speaker 2 (02:31:32):
Neither will hold up, but the likelihood of the store
owner doing everything he can to avoid this going to
trial may just be enough for us to win and
petty claims court.

Speaker 1 (02:31:43):
Everyone turned slowly to Benny the puppy and stared confused
Bart the game turned around, defeated and sad that Hector
wouldn't have a costume for the parade. The next day,
as Hector woke up, he realized that all of his

(02:32:05):
friends would be having fun at the parade today without him.

Speaker 3 (02:32:10):
I knew I should have just been a pumpkin bat.

Speaker 1 (02:32:14):
The door to Hector's bedroom creaked open, and his mother
walked in and sat next to him on the bed. Hector,
what are you doing? I thought you would be out
of bed already for the parade. You love Halloween.

Speaker 3 (02:32:29):
No, Mom, not this here. I didn't find a costume
in time for the parade, so.

Speaker 1 (02:32:34):
I'm not going Mama bat let out a little bat,
laugh you silly little kiro Tara.

Speaker 6 (02:32:43):
I bought you a Halloween costume from the Misty Meadow
store weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (02:32:47):
Did your father and I not tell you about it?
It's in your closet. Hector shot out of bed and
flew to the closet with excitement. As he opened the closet,
there hung a movie grade replica of William Dafoe's green
Goblin suit from the two thousand and two cult classic

(02:33:08):
Spider Man movie.

Speaker 3 (02:33:10):
I have the best parents ever. Thank you, Mama, bet
you saved Halloween.

Speaker 1 (02:33:17):
Hector threw on his costume and flew out the window,
hoping to make it down to the parade before it started.
As Hector got to the Forest town Square, he saw
his friends down below, all standing on the side just
in time.

Speaker 3 (02:33:35):
I wish Hector was here. He loves the parade.

Speaker 1 (02:33:39):
I know, Sammy.

Speaker 3 (02:33:40):
I can't believe the.

Speaker 7 (02:33:41):
Store was closed.

Speaker 3 (02:33:43):
What bad luck.

Speaker 2 (02:33:45):
He could have been a pumpkin bat or a lumberjack
bat and still come. But I totally understand those honors
car chasing vibes.

Speaker 1 (02:33:53):
As Benny was finishing his sentence, Hector landed next to
his friends and his new green Goblin costume.

Speaker 3 (02:34:02):
Hey guys, Hector, you made it. Yay and just in
time for the parade.

Speaker 1 (02:34:08):
Hey what? The guys had the best Halloween ever in
their costumes, watching the parade as friends should.
