Speaker 1 (00:00):
So we all are very excited. So made the announcement
that he's going to be having a bite, very excited
about that. Has there been a talk of like are
we going to do one and done or we may
you know, obviously got to get through this.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
And we want to get through this first to make
sure everything's okay. But the plan is two Oh really,
plan is two kids because I've seen what happens with
solo single kids.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
They don't what a great example to go. Okay, I'm
seeing I don't think i've seen what.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
You're an only child, only child, there's some wild things
that can happen.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Yeah, I've seen if I've just seen fifteen year old
and you know baby Bjorn's.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
No you have you just say that.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
I just and me and my sorry guy, Me and
my wife both come from We both have she has
four just three brothers and I have a sister.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Does gender matter?
Speaker 5 (00:51):
Like if say you had two girls, would you go
for a third or two boys would you go for
a third?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
So obviously we don't know yet. But if we have
a girl, then I want to have another baby to
have a If it's a girl again, then that's gonna
be a risky decision. But hopefully the dream is boy girl.
(01:16):
That's the dream because we have our boy and then
he protects our girls.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
So that's the dream. That's what happened with us.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
We got very lucky that you know, we started off
and we had a girl first and I was like,
all right, we're gonna give it one more shot, and
then got the boy and so we got very lucky.
And having two kids. When you have multiple kids, then
you know, having one kid, you're gonna have the all
kinds of sets of you know, things that happened and
problems and issues and all that stuff. And then we
(01:46):
have too, honestly, get double it. But then you kind
of triple it because it's like it becomes even more.
So it's a lot.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
My uncle had three girls hoping to have and then
his daughter just had a girl, so he just can't.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Run the family great goods.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
So yeah, so when you have multiple kids, then you
have multiple things going on, and especially if they're sort
of somewhat close inning. So my kids are three years apart,
and so we got stuff going on all the time,
and a lot of times, uh, you know, we have
to divide and conquer. Yeah, and this is the way
it goes all right, you go pick up our daughter
and I'll deal with my son, and whatever happens happens
(02:21):
and figure it out. And like people that have like
five kids, it's it's impressive, to be honest with you,
I don't you know, you have to try and figure
out all right, prioritize. I'll go to you know, two
you know innings of your baseball game, and then I'm
going to the second half of the soccer game, and
then I'll do that.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
It's wild.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I can't I know people that can handle one.
Speaker 6 (02:43):
You're right. Aubrey as three boys and they're all like
a year apart, and they all play sports, and some
of them play multiple sports, and like during the same season,
and I like, my head explodes watching it. What are you?
Speaker 3 (02:54):
How?
Speaker 4 (02:55):
How do you do that?
Speaker 3 (02:56):
You're like that with one?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
I get stressed up for one.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
It's crazy. And so, you know, it hasn't really been
that big of an issue. We figure it out. It's
not that big of a deal. It is what it is.
But I do have a kind of tricky situation that
has popped up, and it is all based around what's
going on on Friday. So on Friday, I was alerted
(03:21):
that my daughter Taylor has a dance showcase. He's in
dance in school and has been, you know, for a while,
and so this is I guess their end of the
program dance showcase.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
And so she's in quite a few dances. So when
she started, she was in like one or two, and
now she's in like nine. Thank god, because if you've sitten,
I've had to sit through the dance showcases. And if
your kid's in one dance and then you gotta watch
thirty other dances, it's pretty brutal.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
It's just tough, brutal. Good though you know, it's high school,
so they're good. But I'm still like, I don't care.
If it's not my kid, I don't care. So like
I have no problem.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Now that she's in like nine out of the thirty,
I'm like, okay, I can make it through this now, you.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Know whatever, not bad?
Speaker 1 (04:13):
But what is it? What day of the week? So
it's Friday? Now that's another big bonus. No, that's because
Friday still because if it was on like it's been
on like a Tuesday before, well ends it like god, thirty.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
All right, that's better, You're right, you're so.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Friday, I'm like, well, Taday, I don't got to wake
up earlier next day, the nine thirty on Tuesdays, you're
gonna have to be doing that stuff because you got
a girl.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Look out, what if she's a theater kid.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
God, even worse if she's like sat he's a yeah,
oh god, or there are set kids that even in it,
and I go, why would you go?
Speaker 5 (04:51):
Though?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah, why would I go?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
You want to see that?
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Yeah, but I don't only go once though, you'd be
psychotic to go.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
Well, because the final show is when they get to I.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Have more more than one kid, more than Okay, so
I've I've alerted that I, you know, have to.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Thrill more. Look at them thrill thrilled.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Absolutely absolutely one problem though, you know, I'm little coaching
and our Tournament of Champions, which is the playoffs begin
on Saturday. So on my schedule, you know, my wife
tells me all the Taylor's dance showcases on Friday. Okay,
(05:37):
look at my baseball schedule and realize I have scheduled
a pretty cool batting practice that I've put on there
for a while now. My team earned a gift card
to the Cages at a pretty high end batting cage place.
It's the day before the playoffs begin, and so that's
(05:59):
why I schedule that there.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
So well, you're like, I mean, I don't know what
this issue is, your coach, you have obligation.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
What excuse me.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
For something? You sign up for something? You got to
do that said, oh you got that batting case.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
You always look, you got all these kids relying on
the coach.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Manager.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Please don't pay attention to the child of your own
relying on you.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
But when you do, when you have an obligation, you
sign up for something.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Having a child, I have to sky Yeah, is too
want my other child I am going to be with
at the batting case.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
So this would be a different discussion if this was
your other child's actual final game, right, But it's a
batting case the tournament.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
That's the extra.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
It's not funny.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
It is funny.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
You don't know what you're talking on. You gott to
lock this team in before our tournament run. Okay, you
don't understand. I have obligations.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
I understand. I understand. There's one that you would probably
find a lot more fun.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
No, no, no, it's not a fun I'm the coach.
I'm the coach. Do you don't understand that I know?
Speaker 4 (07:08):
But this is something fundsy extra that you play.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
I stop saying that, Please stop saying that it's not
funsie extra.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
Because it's different. Yes, because I think I know where
you're going and it's a pretty and.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
It's not a regularly scheduled practice. It was an extra
funzie incorrect.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
It was a practice time, my practice time that I
changed to be this batting practice because we had earned
this thing, and I knew it was right before the tournament.
So it's not extra.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Do you have assistant coaches?
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Too, done and done?
Speaker 3 (07:38):
What's done? And done? What's done?
Speaker 5 (07:40):
And it's a practice. Your daughter is in her final performance.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
I have a question.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Well, like she's acting like this is it, Butchael Jackson
to you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I mean, she's gonna dance this year, she's only a sophone.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
She's not dancing next year.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Can can you even listen to my words? I haven't
even got to say anything yet. I mean I didn't
say what I'm doing. I haven't said work, she'll never do.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
Once again, well, I just got very triggered with when
Door said that this is like a no brainer.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
It's very clear he's the manager.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
If he was if he was an assistant coach, then
then yeah, obviously, but you have the obligation I understand.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
I have a question. How much are you coaching them
up at the cages or do they just go in
and they have their time in the cage and then
they get out comments you're coaching.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Obviously, Okay, yeah, so I've rented the cages. One where
it's going to be the machine, one where it's going
to be pitch me pitching. Oh so or one of
my assistants, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
What are your four things in baseball out? I just
want to know what that my managing principles YEA principles
coaching principles. Well, number one begins and ends with attitude attitude.
I mean, I'm dealing with some bad guys, guys.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Got and who are we applying these two are?
Speaker 3 (08:56):
I just have a question.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
I just have a question atude about the dances.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
It is very important, I just haven't very important effort.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Effort you have to bring no matter what.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
So the final performance.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Focus focus, It'll always be focused and you got to
bring that energy.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Now, I don't know about this fifth one that I
just thought of not showing up when you have an
obligation to your child.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
You're talking about again you're missing, but.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
You're also missing the point between a final end of
the year performance versus.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
But this is the batting cages.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
But this is the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
It's not a game.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Why is batting cag does not matter.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
Because it's not. It's not the final thing. If the
game if whatever, t OC what thank you if that
game was at the same time, Now we have an
actual discussion, like conflict, like an actual conflict the batting
cages where your assistant coaches.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Can you made it?
Speaker 3 (09:55):
I don't trust to me.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
This is say no brain.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Sorry said it was a no brainer and you got triggered. Yeah,
so where's the no brainer?
Speaker 3 (10:06):
I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Listen when you sign this is a great teaching moment.
You tell your daughter, listen, I love you. Mom's gonna
videotape it. And but you sign up. I signed up,
I signed up. I have an obligation. This is an
it Tellian life. You can't always get things. Yeah, you
sign up for an obligation.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Do what you need to do.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
He's with Jack because all of his.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Signed up to be a dance coach.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
If Eddie signed up to be a Okay, so next
year Eddie was up to be a dance manager to
the same thing.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Well, my daughter is also in golf. There you go.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Golfing is a trickier one because I can't really get
that involved other than taking her out every once in
a while, because it's not like a spectator sport. And
so I if I could, I would go to every
one of her golf matches.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
But it's not. You can't follow them around the course.
It's actually not allowed.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
So you be there when you can, and this is
an opportunity to be there for her.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
But see the thing that that I don't think you
understand because you only have one child, as I have to,
you have to, and so for two. You know, sometimes
you make it so hard, Oh Sophie, Sometimes you just
got to go. I got to pick one or the other.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
But here's the thing you don't have to do.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Well, luckily your world, but in me and Thor's world
war over here saying.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Well luckily the other way, Well, luckily you have two parents,
so one parent could go to one thing and the
other parents go to the obligation.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Not the manager.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
You've heard both sides of this argument. You're you're a
great baseball mom.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
I've heard she's a great baseball.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
A couple of years. Look at that.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
What should I do here? Because because by the way,
my wife it isn't as insane as sky Sky is acting.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Like she's going to kill you if you don't go
to your daughter's my last dancer cycles.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
But she's not happy about it. I haven't said one
way or the other yet.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
See, my dad would go to my soccer games, but
not really my dancee not my dance And he showed
up to one of my final dance recitals and it's
one of my best memories to.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Every one of them, every one of my daughters.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
This is this is the end of the year. Here
we go. Let's go final one here, every one, final one?
Speaker 6 (12:33):
Will your daughter my son read if one of us
isn't there. He's the kind of kid that doesn't get
like so upset about it.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
It's he obviously.
Speaker 6 (12:43):
Shut up.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
I think he probably bring me his voice. Can you
shut up? Is your daughter going to be if you
aren't there? She at me on the mom shut up?
Speaker 6 (13:02):
Is your daughter going to be like super distraught if
you're not there. Do you think she wants you there?
Speaker 3 (13:07):
She would want me there right yea, and I would
love to be there.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
And have there been.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Obligations?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Have there been any comments in the house about because clearly,
because of the fact that you're a manager, you're present
a lot more with Jack multiple times a week than
at Taylor's activities. Has she ever brought up that that
night bums her out or anything? Okay, well, let's let's
be good before she brings that up.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
What do you mean, because what.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Happens, I'll figure something out. I'll figure something out. We know, Okay,
what do we do?
Speaker 6 (13:42):
Both cages that race there, catch, middle of the catch,
the tail end.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
All of her dances are sort of in the beginning.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Are the cages from the school to drive right? Yeah,
you'll never you'll never make I'm I'll figure something
So we all are very excited. So made the announcement
that he's going to be having a bite, very excited
about that. Has there been a talk of like are
we going to do one and done or we may
you know, obviously got to get through this.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
And we want to get through this first to make
sure everything's okay. But the plan is two Oh really,
plan is two kids because I've seen what happens with
solo single kids.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
They don't what a great example to go. Okay, I'm
seeing I don't think i've seen what.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
You're an only child, only child, there's some wild things
that can happen.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Yeah, I've seen if I've just seen fifteen year old
and you know baby Bjorn's.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
No you have you just say that.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
I just and me and my sorry guy, Me and
my wife both come from We both have she has
four just three brothers and I have a sister.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Does gender matter?
Speaker 5 (00:51):
Like if say you had two girls, would you go
for a third or two boys would you go for
a third?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
So obviously we don't know yet. But if we have
a girl, then I want to have another baby to
have a If it's a girl again, then that's gonna
be a risky decision. But hopefully the dream is boy girl.
(01:16):
That's the dream because we have our boy and then
he protects our girls.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
So that's the dream. That's what happened with us.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
We got very lucky that you know, we started off
and we had a girl first and I was like,
all right, we're gonna give it one more shot, and
then got the boy and so we got very lucky.
And having two kids. When you have multiple kids, then
you know, having one kid, you're gonna have the all
kinds of sets of you know, things that happened and
problems and issues and all that stuff. And then we
(01:46):
have too, honestly, get double it. But then you kind
of triple it because it's like it becomes even more.
So it's a lot.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
My uncle had three girls hoping to have and then
his daughter just had a girl, so he just can't.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Run the family great goods.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
So yeah, so when you have multiple kids, then you
have multiple things going on, and especially if they're sort
of somewhat close inning. So my kids are three years apart,
and so we got stuff going on all the time,
and a lot of times, uh, you know, we have

then I'll do that.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
It's wild.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I can't I know people that can handle one.
Speaker 6 (02:43):
You're right. Aubrey as three boys and they're all like
a year apart, and they all play sports, and some
of them play multiple sports, and like during the same season,
and I like, my head explodes watching it. What are you?
Speaker 3 (02:54):
How?
Speaker 4 (02:55):
How do you do that?
Speaker 3 (02:56):
You're like that with one?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
I get stressed up for one.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
It's crazy. And so, you know, it hasn't really been
that big of an issue. We figure it out. It's
not that big of a deal. It is what it is.
But I do have a kind of tricky situation that
has popped up, and it is all based around what's
going on on Friday. So on Friday, I was alerted
(03:21):
that my daughter Taylor has a dance showcase. He's in
dance in school and has been, you know, for a while,
and so this is I guess their end of the
program dance showcase.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
And so she's in quite a few dances. So when
she started, she was in like one or two, and
now she's in like nine. Thank god, because if you've sitten,
I've had to sit through the dance showcases. And if
your kid's in one dance and then you gotta watch

Speaker 3 (03:58):
It's just tough, brutal. Good though you know, it's high school,
so they're good. But I'm still like, I don't care.
If it's not my kid, I don't care. So like
I have no problem.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Now that she's in like nine out of the thirty,
I'm like, okay, I can make it through this now, you.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Know whatever, not bad?
Speaker 1 (04:13):
But what is it? What day of the week? So
it's Friday? Now that's another big bonus. No, that's because
Friday still because if it was on like it's been
on like a Tuesday before, well ends it like god, thirty.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
All right, that's better, You're right, you're so.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Friday, I'm like, well, Taday, I don't got to wake
up earlier next day, the nine thirty on Tuesdays, you're
gonna have to be doing that stuff because you got
a girl.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Look out, what if she's a theater kid.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
God, even worse if she's like sat he's a yeah,
oh god, or there are set kids that even in it,
and I go, why would you go?
Speaker 5 (04:51):
Though?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah, why would I go?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
You want to see that?
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Yeah, but I don't only go once though, you'd be
psychotic to go.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
Well, because the final show is when they get to I.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Have more more than one kid, more than Okay, so
I've I've alerted that I, you know, have to.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Thrill more. Look at them thrill thrilled.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Absolutely absolutely one problem though, you know, I'm little coaching
and our Tournament of Champions, which is the playoffs begin
on Saturday. So on my schedule, you know, my wife
tells me all the Taylor's dance showcases on Friday. Okay,
(05:37):
look at my baseball schedule and realize I have scheduled
a pretty cool batting practice that I've put on there
for a while now. My team earned a gift card
to the Cages at a pretty high end batting cage place.
It's the day before the playoffs begin, and so that's
(05:59):
why I schedule that there.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
So well, you're like, I mean, I don't know what
this issue is, your coach, you have obligation.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
What excuse me.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
For something? You sign up for something? You got to
do that said, oh you got that batting case.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
You always look, you got all these kids relying on
the coach.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Manager.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Please don't pay attention to the child of your own
relying on you.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
But when you do, when you have an obligation, you
sign up for something.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Having a child, I have to sky Yeah, is too
want my other child I am going to be with
at the batting case.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
So this would be a different discussion if this was
your other child's actual final game, right, But it's a
batting case the tournament.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
That's the extra.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
It's not funny.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
It is funny.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
You don't know what you're talking on. You gott to
lock this team in before our tournament run. Okay, you
don't understand. I have obligations.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
I understand. I understand. There's one that you would probably
find a lot more fun.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
No, no, no, it's not a fun I'm the coach.
I'm the coach. Do you don't understand that I know?
Speaker 4 (07:08):
But this is something fundsy extra that you play.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
I stop saying that, Please stop saying that it's not
funsie extra.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
Because it's different. Yes, because I think I know where
you're going and it's a pretty and.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
It's not a regularly scheduled practice. It was an extra
funzie incorrect.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
It was a practice time, my practice time that I
changed to be this batting practice because we had earned
this thing, and I knew it was right before the tournament.
So it's not extra.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Do you have assistant coaches?
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Too, done and done?
Speaker 3 (07:38):
What's done? And done? What's done?
Speaker 5 (07:40):
And it's a practice. Your daughter is in her final performance.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
I have a question.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Well, like she's acting like this is it, Butchael Jackson
to you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I mean, she's gonna dance this year, she's only a sophone.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
She's not dancing next year.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Can can you even listen to my words? I haven't
even got to say anything yet. I mean I didn't
say what I'm doing. I haven't said work, she'll never do.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
Once again, well, I just got very triggered with when
Door said that this is like a no brainer.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
It's very clear he's the manager.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
If he was if he was an assistant coach, then
then yeah, obviously, but you have the obligation I understand.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
I have a question. How much are you coaching them
up at the cages or do they just go in
and they have their time in the cage and then
they get out comments you're coaching.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Obviously, Okay, yeah, so I've rented the cages. One where
it's going to be the machine, one where it's going
to be pitch me pitching. Oh so or one of
my assistants, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
What are your four things in baseball out? I just
want to know what that my managing principles YEA principles
coaching principles. Well, number one begins and ends with attitude attitude.
I mean, I'm dealing with some bad guys, guys.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Got and who are we applying these two are?
Speaker 3 (08:56):
I just have a question.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
I just have a question atude about the dances.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
It is very important, I just haven't very important effort.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Effort you have to bring no matter what.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
So the final performance.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Focus focus, It'll always be focused and you got to
bring that energy.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Now, I don't know about this fifth one that I
just thought of not showing up when you have an
obligation to your child.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
You're talking about again you're missing, but.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
You're also missing the point between a final end of
the year performance versus.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
But this is the batting cages.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
But this is the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
It's not a game.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Why is batting cag does not matter.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
Because it's not. It's not the final thing. If the
game if whatever, t OC what thank you if that
game was at the same time, Now we have an
actual discussion, like conflict, like an actual conflict the batting
cages where your assistant coaches.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Can you made it?
Speaker 3 (09:55):
I don't trust to me.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
This is say no brain.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Sorry said it was a no brainer and you got triggered. Yeah,
so where's the no brainer?
Speaker 3 (10:06):
I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Listen when you sign this is a great teaching moment.
You tell your daughter, listen, I love you. Mom's gonna
videotape it. And but you sign up. I signed up,
I signed up. I have an obligation. This is an
it Tellian life. You can't always get things. Yeah, you
sign up for an obligation.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Do what you need to do.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
He's with Jack because all of his.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Signed up to be a dance coach.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
If Eddie signed up to be a Okay, so next
year Eddie was up to be a dance manager to
the same thing.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Well, my daughter is also in golf. There you go.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Golfing is a trickier one because I can't really get
that involved other than taking her out every once in
a while, because it's not like a spectator sport. And
so I if I could, I would go to every
one of her golf matches.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
But it's not. You can't follow them around the course.
It's actually not allowed.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
So you be there when you can, and this is
an opportunity to be there for her.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
But see the thing that that I don't think you
understand because you only have one child, as I have to,
you have to, and so for two. You know, sometimes
you make it so hard, Oh Sophie, Sometimes you just
got to go. I got to pick one or the other.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
But here's the thing you don't have to do.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Well, luckily your world, but in me and Thor's world
war over here saying.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Well luckily the other way, Well, luckily you have two parents,
so one parent could go to one thing and the
other parents go to the obligation.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Not the manager.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
You've heard both sides of this argument. You're you're a
great baseball mom.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
I've heard she's a great baseball.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
A couple of years. Look at that.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
What should I do here? Because because by the way,
my wife it isn't as insane as sky Sky is acting.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Like she's going to kill you if you don't go
to your daughter's my last dancer cycles.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
But she's not happy about it. I haven't said one
way or the other yet.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
See, my dad would go to my soccer games, but
not really my dancee not my dance And he showed
up to one of my final dance recitals and it's
one of my best memories to.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Every one of them, every one of my daughters.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
This is this is the end of the year. Here
we go. Let's go final one here, every one, final one?
Speaker 6 (12:33):
Will your daughter my son read if one of us
isn't there. He's the kind of kid that doesn't get
like so upset about it.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
It's he obviously.
Speaker 6 (12:43):
Shut up.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
I think he probably bring me his voice. Can you
shut up? Is your daughter going to be if you
aren't there? She at me on the mom shut up?
Speaker 6 (13:02):
Is your daughter going to be like super distraught if
you're not there. Do you think she wants you there?
Speaker 3 (13:07):
She would want me there right yea, and I would
love to be there.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
And have there been.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Obligations?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Have there been any comments in the house about because clearly,
because of the fact that you're a manager, you're present
a lot more with Jack multiple times a week than
at Taylor's activities. Has she ever brought up that that
night bums her out or anything? Okay, well, let's let's
be good before she brings that up.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
What do you mean, because what.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Happens, I'll figure something out. I'll figure something out. We know, Okay,
