(00:46):

am about to go find my family, my wife, my kids, hell,

with each of my family members. And then I gave

the pats a little bit of a task too, So

three hundred. This is sit down interviews.

Speaker 5 (01:28):
Oh my gosh, you actually want me to answer questions?
Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh Q. Duncan, what's the
meaning of bubbles? Bubbles are fleeting truths. They rise, shimmer,
and vanish, just like your confidence when you try to

(01:50):
parallel park. Q. What's your view on podcasting from inside
a tank? It's isolating, It's it's perfect. Every word I
speak reverberates through filtered water and lands in the ears
of no one. That's art. Q. If you could swim

(02:15):
anywhere in the world, where would you go the bathtub?
Not for the space, but for the drama. Every time
the faucet turns on, it's like Broadway. Q. What do
you hear when Dad records? Does it soothe or disturb

(02:36):
your aquatic soul? It's a mix. Sometimes it's laughter, which
ripples through my tank like warm currents. Other times it's
mooset knocking over a mic stand, which feels like an
earthquake in Atlantis. Q. What's your advice for humans who

(02:57):
feel stuck?

Speaker 7 (03:00):
Float?

Speaker 5 (03:01):
Don't fight the current. Sometimes the best move is no
move at all. Also blink more you look tense. Q.
If you could host a segment called Deep Thoughts with Duncan,
what would the first topic be? Why do humans fear silence?

(03:23):
Followed by a forty five minute episode of silence with
occasional bubble sounds. Q. What's your message to the cats?
I see you, I respect your chaos, but if you
tap on my glass one more time, I will manifest

(03:44):
a flood. Don't test me.

Speaker 8 (03:47):
This fall, things get weird, things get spooky, and things
get way more Frank.

Speaker 9 (03:57):
Daily Life of Frank Halloween Special is back. Pumpkins, costumes, candy, chaos.
You know the true, but this year we're turning it
up to eleven. And if that's not enough to rattle
your skeleton. Introducing a brand new podcast series, The Entities

(04:19):
of the Unknown, Real stories, real chills, real weird. You'll laugh,
you'll scream, you'll probably question reality. Also, Dad voicemail lines
are coming. Leave your rants, your dad jokes, your questionable advice.

(04:42):
I might just play it on the show or use
it as evidence in therapy. Plus new segments, surprise guests, giveaways.

Speaker 7 (04:53):
And much much more. It's fall, baby, and the.

Speaker 9 (04:57):

Speaker 9 (05:11):
Subscribe now, Tell a friend, Tell your weird uncle. The
daily life of Frank where.

Speaker 7 (05:18):
Fall gets freaky.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
My dad has asked me to read these questions and
give my answers, and he will use a cat translator
app for it to translate to human. Wait, how is
he my dad? The only thing we have in common
is that he is a nemo. What's your favorite thing
to knock off a shelf? Anything? Fragile bonus points if

(05:52):
it was emotionally significant. I once knocked over a framed photo.
The silence afterward.

Speaker 4 (05:59):
Do this.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
If you could teleport anywhere, where would you go and
what would you destroy?

Speaker 4 (06:06):
There?

Speaker 2 (06:08):
The Vatican, I'd knock over a chalice and vanish into
the incense or maybe the moon. I hear gravities optional there.
What's your opinion on Frank's voice? Be brutally honest. It's
like warm toast dipped in chaos. Comforting, but I still

(06:30):
want to scream over it. I do often. What's your
dream podcast segment? Lasers, birds or chaos? All three? It's
called Laser Birds of the Apocalypse. I narrate while riding
a rumba into battle. If you could talk to humans

(06:53):
for one hour, what would you say? I'd say, you're
not in charge the couch belongs to me. Also, stop
naming your Wi Fi Frank's network.

Speaker 10 (07:07):
It's embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
What's your favorite sound effect and can you recreate it?
The sound of a treat bag crinkling. I can't recreate it,
but I can scream until someone does. What's your message
to the fish duncan? I respect your stillness, but if
you ever blink, I'll know you're lying. Also, I licked

(07:33):
your tank. It tasted like secrets.

Speaker 11 (07:37):
My dad, Frank has asked me to read these. Nope,
I am not reading this prescript. Question. What's the most
annoying sound? Frank makes his laugh. It echoes through the
house like a wounded goose trying to host a game show.

(07:58):
What is your favorite things to do? Breathing heavily and
judging people? Occasionally I knock over a succulent what's your
stance on belly rubs pro or Khan Khan unless I initiate,
and even then you'll regret it. What's your message to

(08:23):
the newest member in the house, Nemo, stay out of
my sunbeam, and if you touch my kibble again, I
will write a strongly worded letter to the universe. If
you could ban one household activity. What would it be vacuuming?

(08:44):
It's a war crime. I filed a formal complaint with
the Council of Shadows. What's your favorite napp location and
why is it sacred? The window sill at three seveneen pm.
That's when the light hits just right and I briefly

(09:05):
forget the burden of existence. If you sit there, I
will end you Moose. What's your opinion on podcasting as
a concept. It's loud, it's unnecessary, it interrupts my scheduled
nineteen hour nap cycle. But sure talk into your toy Frank. Seriously, though,

(09:31):
anybody could do a podcast. Anybody, Hey, you hairy man.
Hit play. It's translated and it's our podcast hosted by
me and Nemo called Pussyfooting. Get your mind out of
the litter box, you perv.

Speaker 6 (09:51):
Welcome to Pussyfooting, the podcast that tiptoes around nothing and
claws at everything Nemo. This first episode is dedicated to
Lucky the Hamster. She was amazing, a true wheel warrior,
and a special shout out to Duncan the Fish still floating,

(10:12):
still judging Lucky forever. I once tried to ride her wheel.
She bit me. It was iconic. Also, duncan. If you're listening,
blink twice. If the cat's are winning, Let's talk territory.
The little box isn't just a bathroom. It's a battleground,

(10:33):
a diary, a statement piece.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
I buried a sock in there once. It was performance art.
The humans didn't get it.

Speaker 6 (10:41):
They never do. Segment two. Catnip and conspiracies.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
Okay, moose, hear me out. Catnip is a distraction, a
tool away to keep us docile while they rearranged the furniture.

Speaker 6 (10:58):
I did wake up on under a bookshelf last week.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
Suspicious.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
Also the red laser dot surveillance drone. I chased it
for forty five minutes. It led me to the fridge. Coincidence,
I think not.

Speaker 6 (11:15):
Segment three. Where's the best place to nap? Top three
nap spots? Third, the laundry pile smells like betrayal. Second,
the forbidden chair warm dangerous worth it First, the window
seal at three seventeen PM. That's when the light hits

(11:38):
just right and I forget I exist.

Speaker 10 (11:42):
I nap in the sink. It's cold, it's weird.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
It's me.

Speaker 6 (11:47):
Segment four meow or never?

Speaker 10 (11:50):
Okay, Moose, scream your truth.

Speaker 6 (11:53):
I once loved the laser pointer.

Speaker 4 (11:56):
It betrayed me.

Speaker 10 (11:58):
The window is a portal and I'm ready.

Speaker 6 (12:01):
Time two pounds. Next week, we interviewed dunk in the Fish.
If he floats, he's guilty.

Speaker 10 (12:10):
Also, I'm launching my solo podcast, Nemo Unleashed. It's just
me yelling into a pringles can.

Speaker 6 (12:17):
This has been pussy footing. We're not sorry.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
The Daily Life of Frank is back in two weeks.

and then the following week, enjoy the audio version of
Frank's Oh myde Own Nick comedy special.

hundredth episode to really dig deep into what they are
thinking about me. So first, is my little girl, my daughter,
my beautiful angel. I call her Lily pad So, Hello, Lilian, Hello.

Speaker 4 (13:24):
If you that damn Sigma, if you could design your
own emporium, you know our imporium downstairs. What element would
you include?

Speaker 12 (13:33):
I would include a sleeping machine that didn't remove blue raspberry.

Speaker 4 (13:40):
That is very good. That is very good. A slurping
machine that didn't remove blue raspberry. Uh, what's one rule
you make the whole family follow?

Speaker 12 (13:50):
Probably what cheers we seeing at dinner?

Okay? So what do I do that makes you laugh
every time?

Speaker 4 (14:04):
I say yeah? When do I say that?

Speaker 3 (14:07):
You say you're in the shower.

Speaker 4 (14:13):
If you had a magic microphone, what would you say
to the world.

I wish it was hollering every day so I can't eat?
Can you every day?

Speaker 4 (14:25):
And what's your dream podcast segment? Who would you interview?

More friendlier version. Yes, so you're not killing prostitutes, bugs, buddy.

on me too. If I'm sitting on air and people
are looking at me talking to myself. That's quite weird.

(18:48):
Mm hmmm. No, I have to get up to that curtain.
I think jesuise she comes now and I can confirm
that this is her. It's the element of surprise. Always
have to have an element of surprise for interviews. I

(19:08):
think that brings out the best interviews. The best interviews
are the ones that you surprise. Stop right there, I
have the mini microphone in hand, which means it's an interview.
While you're looking, Who cares I just talked about I'm
putting my pants out here. First off, the question is

(19:31):
what took you so long? This is supposed to be
a quick garden trip.

Speaker 14 (19:35):
I decided to take all the dead leaves off the
cucumber plants.

Speaker 4 (19:39):
You sure the old man fits Santa Claus wasn't hitting
at you?

Speaker 3 (19:44):
No, there is no old man. You seen.

Speaker 4 (19:47):
Invite him over for Christmas so he can hand out gifts.
Then time us on a one minute mile. No, what's
the weirdest think you overheard while I was recording?

Speaker 3 (20:01):
Oh geez, is this like in all the years?

Speaker 14 (20:06):
Oh? Honestly, I don't know. I mean I feel like
you say something weird all the time.

Speaker 4 (20:15):
Thank you. Thank you, weird, I feel like introvert. I'm
looking around, people are gonna pop out. Been out it
for forty two minutes. So while you were flirting, if
you could quiet down squirrels, if you could rename the show,
what would you call it?

Speaker 3 (20:35):
The messed up life of Frank?

Speaker 4 (20:40):
What's one thing I do during podcast podcast prep that
drives you nets well?

Speaker 14 (20:46):
I don't know if this just qualifies for podcast prep,
but anytime you are focused in like working, when you
have your earbuds in and you're playing karaoke, you out yourself.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
Do you think if the audience knows the real mind
or the real life or the real me? Or have
a typo? I don't know what the hell that even means.
Do you think the audience knows the real me? Oh?
It's a brise them where outside will be careful that.

Speaker 3 (21:17):
You are just as awkward as your story's paintub.

Speaker 4 (21:21):
Thanks. This is great.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
This is great.

Speaker 4 (21:23):
We're gonna be marriage constantly after it. But it's great.
If you hosted your own podcast, what would it be about?
And would I be allowed on it?

Speaker 3 (21:32):
No, you would not be allowed on it.

Speaker 14 (21:35):
And I think you'd be a support group for women
who are married to guys like you.

Speaker 4 (21:42):
What's your favorite episode moment and your least favorite?

Speaker 3 (21:46):
Oh god, gosh, I don't know. Favorites. I don't know.

stories are probably like my tap ten because it's hilarious
and it's just how awkward you are. My least faders? Probably,

post hospital.
