There’s a real possibility I’m shrinking my feet are dangling in more places than usual, and I’m starting to question gravity’s loyalty. Meanwhile, my son has officially become the Big Hairy Animal Whisperer (yes, it’s as wild as it sounds). Whoever invented the five-day grind of school and work clearly had zero chill and should not be celebrated. Oh, and I saw the new movie Weapons... all I can say is: holy crap. Buckle up this episode’s got laughs, rants, and a little cinematic shock therapy.

Welcome to the Day Life of Frank Episode twenty eight.
This one is called Dangling Feet My Wife on her
way to the Garden all the Time because it's hot out.
It's hot. The plants need their waters, the waters, you know,
on her way to the garden. You know, I was

(01:46):
telling you about the mystery the mystery guy over there,
you know who uses her formal name a few weeks ago.
I'm just I don't want my wife to become a
garden hole. You know what I'm saying. I like that joke.
We're keeping that with it. Oh my god, Oh my god,

(02:08):
oh my god. Welcome to the day life, Frank. Yeah,
I don't want to become a garden hole. That's it.
That's it. I don't know. You know, I don't want
to be. I do know. I don't want to you know,
uh got some old man's thirst trap. I just don't
want it to happen. Did he use that that definition? Right?
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. And two,
I don't want him to pass out, you know, with

(02:29):
my wife's beauty and the heat all in one. You know.
You know, he sees her coming to the garden, he
you know, looking out his window while her walking. He's
running out there, and then all of a sudden he
gets the garden. He's hey, I don't know, take advantage
of her because she's a nurse. I don't know. I

(02:51):
don't know. Maybe that's his fantasy. Who knows, who cares.
Let's move on. It's the hot out there, though. Fuck me,
it's hot. I can't breathing this shit. It's hot, you know.
It's finally like you know, nobody ever says this to me.
But if somebody's like, you just canna breathe, you're a
big going and it's hot, it's like, no, it's a

(03:11):
fucking air quality. We have the worst air quality. Fuck
do we have the worst air quality? I don't. I
don't know how we have that even happen. We're in
the middle of the United States, but we have the
worst air quality. You know, you'd think like Michigan, Minnesota,
somewhere up you know, by Canada. No Canadian air is
coming in, do we ever? And we're a democratic state.

(03:32):
Why are they putting their bury bad air quality on us?
We don't want to annex Canada. There's only a couple conservatives.
I want to get rid of Canada and we'll make
it the fifty first state. I don't. I love I
love Canada. I've never been, but it looks like a
beautiful place, and everybody I've met from Canada are extremely

(03:53):
awesome people. So I don't know, I don't know, uh,
but we have some good news and it's breaking news
and I'm excited. So let's go right now, ladies and gentlemen.
I've worked really hard on this, and even though I've
joked and said, you know, my weight is not going
down because the insulin does add weight to everything that

(04:15):
you do for some reason, just adds the weight, not
everything you do. It's not like that that can we
edit that out everything, not everything you do, but it
adds weight. So well I need to, you know, the
only way it's gonna work is continue the walking and

(04:36):
continue and all that, and then from there what I
need to do is I need to immediately, h you know,
get off the insulin. Get off the insulin so the
weight comes off, and immediately get it off of it.
But we are on the right path, the right direction,
because I'm very excited to say that my A one
C dropped a whopping four percent one of my Bill

(05:08):
Clinton area. I just kissed my hand like it was
kissing somebody in the crowd. What the fuck was that?
That's not the kind of politician. I want I just
want to shake hands. I want to shake hands. That's
all I want to do, not kiss hands, which would
be weird. Whatever, let's go on. This podcast is really
fell off the wagon. Okay, it's like the Oregon Trail.
We've broken down. Everybody has died of who knows who?

(05:28):
Whatever it is. Okay, I made that up. Yeah, so
it's gone down four percent and be transparent. It was
really high. It was ten point one, which is not good.
I got down to six point four, and don't give
me the fucking math. The mathematics out there going well,
it's not really technically four. I'm gonna say it's fucking
for all right, Okay, I don't give me three point whatever.

(05:52):
I can tell you that there are some days where
I don't have to take my insulin all day on
most days are like that. Averages have been really good.
The doctor, who is a godsend, she is great. It
really is happy with it. And there is a very
good discussion about bringing that all back to just maybe

(06:15):
a pill and long lasting insulin. For right now six
point four percent of your A one C you're considered
pretty diabetic, and then even lower if you get to
the sixes and fives, you are not even really considered diabetic,
even though diabetes usually doesn't go away, right, It'll still
be there, but there's other treatment plans. And you also
got to also like hold it off like you can't.

(06:36):
But I hit five yay cake for everybody. You have
a fucking piece, I'll have one, you know, I have one.
Let's eat cake. And it's like no, no, no, no, no.
You got to keep it off for a certain amount
of time and everything. But we're working very close with
my doctor, my wife, who's been amazing. I know I
made that nurse joke earlier, but she has been an
amazing companion and support system. And yeah, we've dropped four percent,

(06:59):
which is quite fucking amazing to do it in a
short for a month period, I know, And I was
thinking about it because when I got the test results back,
they moved really quick, and they got those results really
really quick. I got it on a Saturday, and I

(07:19):
was very excited. No i'd announced in that last week
because I already recorded the podcast on Friday. Okay, all right,
but I was really happy to see those numbers, really
excited to see everything. And it's good. But I was
thinking about it because at the blood blood you know,
get my blood test, we had the whole incident, you know,
didn't call me in and all that kind of stuff,
and the person I felt bad for her. It seemed
like she was having a long day, maybe a rough day,

(07:41):
and I was like, oh my god, she doesn't look happy,
and I don't want her sticking the needle of me.
Can I can I do it myself? Is said, okay,
if I do it. But she was very sweet because
we talked. I asked her how our day was going.
You know, sometimes people just need to be you know,
instead of like being afraid of somebody that you see
that is like grumpy or really just hey, how's it going.

(08:02):
I know you're busy. I appreciate what you do. It's
not easy to poke and poke and poke and poke
and poke and poke and poke and poke and poke.
And now we're into a Disney song. Poke poke poke, poke,
poke poke poke. I'm not a drugs I swear to
God on that well, medically medically prescribed, but nothing else, no,

(08:28):
just uh yeah. And we had a great conversation. We
both were joking because my feet was dangling off the
chair and she was like might fee dangled too, and
we were about I think the same height, so we
understood each other like, hey, our feet dangles. Uh. But
uh yeah, And I was very happy that uh I
was able to produce pe Uh. No, I don't cop

(08:49):
uh produce pee because of the fact that being diabetic
when I'm four, I had my sugar and stuff and
check I was peeing every five minutes. If they needed
blood work, there we go. But not no more. I
don't pee a lot throughout the day. It's very short,
it's not long. I don't pee very long throughout the day,
so you know, it's not a lot of pea that's

(09:10):
coming out of me. He he. And if I push
too hard, I might give the wrong type of sample
they need. Yeah, but had fun time. We went to
Bankston's Summer Fast, which is awesome. They were closed out
for the summer season getting ready for the fall fast.
We love banks It's the great place. Got a lot
of great food. They have great barbecue plates there. Oh good, good,

(09:32):
good food. And then they have a lot of great
stuff for kids, a lot of rides. There's a lot
of you know, just fun things, fun things to do.
You're out. It's like you're almost at a pumpkin festival
without the pumpkins just yet. And it was just awesome.
We go every year and there's rides, like I was saying,
and my son had a little bit of a scary moment.
He got on a ride by himself and I don't

(09:55):
think he had the seatbelt all the way and all
I see as a dad, you know, it was him
and sitting there and him going like his look was like, oh,
I don't got the seapoul on it, and he turned
around and he was trying to tell the right operator, hey, hey,

(10:16):
and he didn't hear him. So at that point, as
a dad, there's no way I could get through that
crowd fast enough. We're gonna hit the ride. And it's
not one of those rides I got the fucking relicals
or like it's three hundred feet in the air and
he's coming out. But he just looked at me and
he smiled, and I smiled back, because at that moment
we shared a very close bond. We were like, son,
he might die. No, it's a little dramatic. It's a

(10:37):
little dramatic, but I was a little nervous. I'm like,
oh shit, this is not good. This is not good.
What's good? Go either way. But if you fell, he
probably just broke his arm. But it's still a hospital visit,
I guess, right, and I'm trying to avoid those nowadays.
So yeah, but no, he he survived, which is good.
He survived. Let's give him a rout of applause again
because he's survived. No bell, and he's riding. You know,

(11:02):
he is the what I call the big hairy animal
whisperer because we always go to the petting zoo at
these places and he always goes with the biggest, hairiest animal.
I don't know. Maybe I remind him of a dad
who knows. I don't know, but they are like just
sitting there, going may load. It's hot. I know that's
how I am. So maybe he does think it's it's
like his dad. But he's like, oh, okay, it's okay,

(11:26):
you're not food for you, and they're like really, So
maybe he is thinking to me, that's his dad, you know.
Maybe that's what he's thinking, like he's going to do
with me when I get older and harrier and all
that kind of stuff. He's able to, you know, take
care of his dad, take care of his dad, and
you know, and then two I've apologize, apologize to my wife.
I think my wife is turning into me. So when
we go to these places now, I try to just

(11:47):
breathe and relax because a lot of things stress me out.
I'm crabby a lot I am. I'm all crabby old
man sometimes. But my wife is now reversing, and she's
the one who's saying things like we were in line
for tickets and he's like, well, we bought our tickets online.
They don't have an expedied expedated line. Just calm down, Frank, Okay,
just calm down, all right, Just breathe. It's a pumpkin fast,

(12:08):
for God's sakes. Oh Like, if you're gonna complain about anything,
you played about the benches. Okay, they're a little high
and my feet dangle off the benches. It's embarrassing. Okay,
I'm a grown ass man. I look like a fucking
oop a lumba. You know. Some kid dropped their ice
cream ride in front of me, and the parents looked

(12:29):
at me like I was supposed to come around and
go do do Do Do do budo doo that go drop
her ice cream? What were we gonna do. We'll get
her another one if she doesn't cry, Like, I don't
know what the fun they want me to do. Oh god,
that was even out the prep. I just did that
have an ad lib. I probably think it's funny that

(12:51):
anybody else is gonna think, but that was pretty funny.
Uh yeah, Yeah. We're just trying to incorporate summer fun
right the final days of summer right here. School's coming
up in a couple of weeks. We're trying to have
Sunday fun days, Like today, I'm recording this and then
I'm going to Buffalo Wowings with the family. Let's get back.
Can we have a clap for that? Yeah? Thank you,
Cloudy Sided. Just trying to incorporate it in, you know, because

(13:19):
you know, when I was thinking about this the other day,
what the fuck? Who the fuck thought it was a
good idea? Like? Who who decided this? Back in the day.
They're like, all right, here's what we're gonna do. We're
gonna have five days of work, That's right, five days
of work, and then you're gonna get two days off
the weekend. But here's the thing. We're not gonna tell
anybody that when it gets a Sunday. That's not really
considered to day because by Sunday afternoon you're gonna get

(13:39):
stomach pains thinking about work the next day. So you're
actually gonna have a day and a half to celebrate,
and they're gonna work five days. Like somebody who thought
of that probably was during the time when there were
a lot of factories, So that's like, what the fuck? Uh,
you know, even like I would fink like they're making
this schedule up in the days of the factories they
were they were probably like three days and you know,
four days off, our guys are are going to be

(14:00):
sweating in there. No, and then they was the same
person who's like, hey, let's do a five day school
work week. School week five days, two days off, but
let's give these kids homework every fucking day. It's like,
what the fuck? That guy should not be celebrated. Whoever
came up with that idea, whoever came up with that

(14:21):
should not be celebrated. They should not there should be
no statue, there should be nothing named after them. And
then it continues every year. You know they do do
do do do it? Then well, unless you Bernie Sanders,
Bernie Sanders is trying to get a four day work week,
four day school week. I think he even said, so,
you know, Bernie Sanders, you know, wants to implement that.
I would like to only work eight hours till a
day and make it a thirty two hour work week
if we can't, kiddy, but no, I know he's trying to.

(14:46):
But whoever thought of that? Like, you know, come on, guys,
come on, people, come on, let's use our head. What'll
we do and what'll we feeling? What'll be thinking? I
tell ya, I tell you five days and then only
two days. I saw a new movie over the weekend
called The Weapons. I was very very very much looking

(15:11):
forward to this movie. I would say it closely lived
up to its expectations. I will say closely did. I
thought it was a movie all I could say. And
I did this on TikTok at the day of Left
frank Is. I was like, holy fucking crap, That's all
I could say, because there's really nothing I can tell
anybody over the ear that would help you know. Yeah,

(15:38):
there's nothing I can really tell that would help describe everything,
because you see a lot what you've seen in the trailer,
but there's a lot more out of the story. And
I can't say anymore. It was a good movie. Go
see it, Go see it, Go support your local theaters.
Through Me Off Guard, Through Me Off Guard. There was
a lot of clapping at the end of the movie.
I didn't think it was like, you know, like we're

(15:58):
not looking at Shuldler's list here on the fuck it's great, right, Okay,
it's good will hunting on there. Okay, it's fucking weapons,
which is a great movie. Scary, but clapping at the end.
And I know the director is very cinematic and he's
really good. Who has created this movie? And Barbarian it's
just as wacky and I don't want to say disgusting,

(16:18):
but you might have an upset stomach or never use
a potato peeler again. I'm not gonna give any more away.
But other than that, it was a good movie. A
lot of clapping. I didn't expect that, and I panicked
and I stood by start clapping him like, and then
I realized I was the only with standing. They weren't standing,
so it was quite embarrassing because that's when lights were
coming on again. It's a whole thing, all right, Hey,

(16:39):
Labor Day weekend. I'm excited to announce the Old Mode
own comedy special, The Daily Life of Frank Morning Show,
