This week, I take you inside our corn maze misadventure where sweat, soreness, and a questionable Achilles tendon were just the beginning. I’m limping through life but still living it up as a proud showdad. We’re talking about my daughter's choir concert all with an unnecessary screaming mom, and I’ll talk about why I’m already hyped for my son’s turn. It’s family, fall, and full-on Frank.

(01:04):
leads you saying your life isn't that bad or you

Daily Life of Frank website The Daily Life of Frank
dot com. Had a scary moment, had a scary moment.

(01:25):
I know, I know, sometimes we have scary moments. Sometimes
we do. I had a scary moment. My sugar was
very low the other day, very low. I woke up
with low sugar. Usually I don't get low sugars overnight,
but I did. I had a low sugar and woke
up just sweating and just hot and just did not

(01:47):
feel well. So I got to have some candy. I know,
isn't that great? I got to have some candy? Yep,
I did. I did, got to have some candy. It's
a mister beast bars. Mister beast bars ate the candy
and the thirty two dollars back No, what thirty two dollars? Yeah? Yeah,

(02:09):
So had some candy and some sprite and was feeling good.
All all back up and perky, all back up and perky.
I guess you could say, mister beast, he sort of
saved my life. He sort of saved my life last
night or the other night or whatever it happened. That's
a very very big exaggeration, very big exaggeration, very big.

(02:37):
But then he tried to kill my son. That's even
more of an exaggeration. So, you know, have you seen
these rumors on TikTok? Maybe your son or daughter showed
you that the lunch Lea's or some of them have
moldy cheese. So when my son tells me stuff of
my daughter and it's from TikTok, I usually have a
very big eye roll and I go on my day.

(02:57):
I'm like eye roll, But uh, my son found molded
cheese in his lunchley. Yeah, there was molded cheese and
a lunchley. I cann't believe it. I could not believe it.
I was like, whoa, what is going on there? I
was green, brown, and black and every other color under

(03:20):
the sun and just looked disgusting. He was like, I'll
just eat it. I'm like, no the fuck, You're not
gonna just eat that? No way, or maybe do so?
Wait a minute, can we get a lawsuit? Hold on,
let's think this out. Everybody stops, mister beast and it's
logan Paul. Can we just sit and stop and think
about this? Should he eat or should he eat? Hol sick?
Can he get no? But? Uh yeah, I had a

(03:42):
little bit of cheese that was either moldby or discolored.
So yeah, ah ah ha ha yeah yeah, so it
was either what the hell was that? What was a
h huh? Yeah? What the fuck was that? I don't
even know what that was was that came out of me?
I think I wanted to laugh. I don't even know.

(04:04):
I think in my head it said laugh like a
normal person, and I'm like, ha ha, that's what came
out of me. Holy shit, I'm sorry, what the fuck?
What the fuck was that? My daughter had a choir
concert this week, no, last week, last week, and it

(04:27):
was great. I love I love going to the choir concerts.
I'm so excited and so happy that not just Lilian,
but Leo has found a passion in a choir. And
I've been calling myself the show dad, and I've been saying, hey,
it's a life of the show dad everybody, and they're like,
what the fuck is wrong with you? Can't act, you know,

(04:50):
can't laugh normal. Uh, he's just a weirdo. Nobody said that.
It's in my head. It's the anxiety talking.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
No.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
So, yeah, my daughter had a choir concert. It was
awesome and she did a great job. And like I
said before, you know my little girl who's on the spectrum,
and just to see her push yourself makes me want
to push myself every day and it motivates me every day.
And I have this bracelet. She makes bracelets, and she
makes every so often will make me a new bracelet,
and I always wear it wherever I go because I

(05:22):
know if I have it with me, I know how
hard it is sometime for her to push yourself. That
when I have it that I know I can push myself.
And I've always taught my kids to run in the fire,
you know, run into it, you know, always push yourself.
And to see my daughter at her concert, and then
my son too, who's inquired and loving it. He's excited
because he gets to performing. The Chicago Wolves game coming up,

(05:44):
and he has a concert coming up here and in
the next couple of weeks. Maybe I'll make my shirt
by then. That says life of a show dad. But
he's excited for it. So you know, I just I
just love it. I love it. I love that they're
you know, they're you know, they're excited I did to
do things, you know, and it and and and it's
it's nice that they're you know, performing on a stage.

(06:09):
They're gaining their confidence, they're gaining all that kind of stuff.
So I love it. I love it. And you know, choir,
my son did not expect it. He's kind of you know,
he's he's a loud guy. When he's you know, he's
a keyboard warrior. I'll talk about that in a second,
but for the most part, you know, he's a shy dude.
So for him to do that, I love it. I

(06:32):
love it. I love it. It was cold in the
choir the choir, choir concert room, theater, lunch room. It's
like a combination at the school. And you know, people
sat next to me. I'm I'm guessing for warmth because
I'm the largest one in the room, so I'm guessing
they were all cuddling over for warmth. I want a
complaint though, about the choir concert. Why do fucking parents

(06:54):
act even more weirder than my laugh? Here's the thing.
You're at a choir concert. There's a little bit of
a little bit of class, right, It's it's choir concert.
These teachers and these talented, you know, students, they put
a lot of work into performing and learning their songs.

(07:17):
So when you have a parent and you're going up
on stage, you know, with the group for the choir concert,
and they're screaming your name, Yeah, what the fuck is
wrong with people? All right? What the fuck is wrong
with people screaming like that? My god? And now I

(07:37):
like to embarrass my kids, but I would fucking never
do that in a heartbeat, never do it. Yeah, what
the fuck? They're going up on stage to perform a song.
Could you let them just perform and then clap afterwards
and not clap like, eh, it wasnaking a fucking I

(07:58):
don't even know. I don't know. I don't even know.
And then she had a baby and the baby was crying,
and the baby's like, you know, she's like, oh, you're
not excited for your sister. And I'm like, you're fucking
screaming in its ears. And he has to me four
months and you're screaming in its ear. So when now

(08:18):
what you've done is you have Oh you yelled, you yelled,
You cause that kind of disruption, and now your baby's
crying and now nobody can hear the singing. My god,
if I was ever inquired growing up and my dad
ever did that, I swear to God I would have
punched him right in the cossacks. It's your butt, okay,

(08:39):
your pervs? All right, it's your butt. Where can we
laugh as parents when our kids do bad things? Can
we laugh? Let me tell you something I told you.
My son was a keyboard warrior, talks a big game
on the keyboard. Found out the other day he is
trolling older cat ladies, which, being a cat, I was

(09:00):
a little bit disgusted by that. No let me tell
you something. It's not a like over aggressive or a
mean troll that he does. What he does is he
found this program that when these people go live on TikTok,
he'll hit this button and it goes in there and says,

(09:20):
you must up your live you know, recording right now,
or you know you must stop your live blah blah
blah because you have valid you know, you have violated
TikTok's terms of services. And there are people like, oh,
hell on it, man, I gotta turn this off. And
I laughed. I laughed, laughed so hard because if you
see it all together, like with the whole thing popping

(09:42):
up and the person doing their live thing and then
having like I swear to god, it was the funniest thing.
I say. Now, was it right?

Speaker 1 (09:49):
No?

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Did he get it talking to yes? But it was
it funny. Very Did I save the video on my phone? Maybe?
Those are all questions, but it was fucking hysterical and
pretty much he was just calling out without doing it.
He was just kind of calling out people's stupidity, right,
And I can't blame him for that because there is

(10:12):
a lot of crazy people in the world, so uh,
you know, but I'm like you, no, no, no more trolling,
No more trolling. Please don't do that. Uh even that
was funny, It was funny. It was funny. I have
an achille heels injury. How did I get it? You ask? Uh?

(10:36):
Not playing sports? Just being fat? Uh? Yeah, So i
have an achilles heel injury. But I'm still going to work.
I'm not taking like fifteen days off. I'm not on
a I'm not on any fucking uh you know, uh,
you know, disabled list or or injury or report. I'm
not on any of that. I'm fin you know, I'm
fucking going out there. I'm walking fast. Do you do
do do do? Do? Do? Do do do do do do?

(10:57):
Do you know? I'm I'm out there. I'm out there,
me and my droopy I which my wife be goes,
you have a droopy eye. I'm like, what the fuck?
Have you not seen any photos? Or are you so
embarrassed that you hit that like magic button on your
phone to get the droopy ee away? My wife didn't
know I had a droopy eye. I'm like, how do
you not? It looks like I had a stroke, which

(11:18):
I didn't, or maybe I didn't. That's how I had
the droppy I you know, I've had it since, you know,
I was younger. We went to the pumpkin patch. Kids
broke the rule right off the bat. They got large pumpkins. Now,
how the fuck am I gonna carry a large pumpkin?
I have an achilles heel injury. All right, Okay, I'm
getting out of some stuff, A few things I have

(11:40):
to get out of because my achilles heel. Okay, but
we said no large pumpkins, no large pumpkins. We said,
broke the rules, and they get the pump I want
that pumpkin, the pumpkin that's forty five fucking miles away
from the exit. Get that one, the gigantic one, the
one that probably has a weird laugh, Get that one.

(12:03):
Go ahead and go ahead and grab it and get it.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Dad.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
There's no carts around, but I know you got it. No.
Then they're like, oh, we'll carry it. And then they're like,
you know, two feet like and I was doing the
same thing, But don't worry. I found a card. We
found a card, we found a cart. At a rough
time with the pumpkin patch, besides a helious heel, I
was way out of shape, way out of breath once again.
We could only uh, you know, characterize that because I'm fat.

(12:32):
I understood it fat. But I had a lot of
salt beforehand. We had McDonald's for lunch, and no, I
had no fucking carbs. A couple of chicken nuggets, but
there are lowering carbs. If you only could guess that,
uh and uh a no patty, no a, no bun,
only patties. And where the fuck is my monopoly? Can we,
please McDonald's get it together and have the monopoly game

(12:56):
on those that are trying to have no buns? All right?
Please z But I was salt, A lot of salt
in McDonald's, A lot of salt in the McDonald's, A
lot of salt. I had to stop but to take breaks.
I was like, it was embarrassing. It was embarrassing, Like

(13:18):
what the fuck am I doing here?

Speaker 1 (13:20):
You know?

Speaker 2 (13:20):
I watched my sugars, my sugars go low. I had
mister b save me, And now all of a sudden,
I just can't walk. God don't mighty. I'm trying to
like go through my head all the excuses. I'm like, ah,
maybe it's the shoes, maybe it's the salt. How about
I'm just fucking fat. You could have low sugars and
still be fat. Right, I'm still sore and sweaty from

(13:43):
the goddamn cornfield, the corn maze. I almost died in
the corn maze. Almost died. My wife wanted a competition.
She's like, Okay, it's boys versus girls in the cornfield.
Let's go corn maze. And I'm like, we're doing the
short one. It's like, no, let's do the large one.
And I'm like, what the fuck are you talking about?
It's like thirty two miles. But my wife loves corn

(14:06):
corn made that. She loves a little competition. We don't
give her a lot around here, Me and my kids
and the cats give her a lot of shit. So
what she wants something and we give it to her
because she doesn't ask for much, working her ass around
this house to make sure that things stay aligned. So
if she wanted me to walk in a forty two
mile cornfield, I would, even though I'd achilles injury, probably

(14:27):
almost had a heart attack, was way out of breath,
and my salt levels were through the roof. But I
still did it. I still did it. There was one
point my son and I looked at each other and said,
this is where we live. Now, we're not coming out.
My wife had a call her and Lilian. Of course
they finished it. Here we are. You know, I didn't

(14:48):
want to hear any more jokes about women in directions. Okay,
they got out fine. Me and my son. We could
have been there, have still been there. It was like
four days ago. We still could have been there. Came
out sore and sweaty. Holy my god, I feel I
still feel the pain. Feel the pain everywhere still, everywhere
every I feel the pain in my legs. Still, I'm

(15:14):
still sweaty. Or that could just be because I moved
from one chair to the other air. Maybe that's what
this today. But I was proud of myself. We went,
had no sweets. The kids had some funnel cakes or
some candied pecans. I had a little bite, a little
bit bite. I had to be proud of myself. Usually
I could have two funnel cakes and two bags of
candied pecans. But I really don't want another hospital visit.

(15:38):
So I watch all that stuff. I watch all of it,
and you know, I had that proud moment, you know,
saying how far I have came from that, you know,
of eating a funnel cake or finishing the kid's funnel cakeer,
you know, drinking and lemonade like the sugars and not
paying attention. I just gotta I gotta be more active,
I think. Or it's my shoes. It was my shoes, okay,

(16:02):
any new pair of gym shoes. It could be that
dadlines are open. You can call three one two, nine,
four five eight seven four two and leave a dad
line for me. Maybe it's a dad joke. Maybe it's
some advice, some dad tips, maybe something funny you did

(16:22):
as a dad. Call the voicemail lines, and you never know.
I might just play it. I might just play it.
I might just play it. You never know. You never know.

Speaker 3 (17:21):
This Halloween the snacks bite back. Frank ate so many sweets.
One time he woke up in the hospital with dka.
The nurse's name was Candy. He thought he was dead.
He wasn't, but his pancreas was ghosting him. It's the

(17:45):
Daily Life of Frank eighth Halloween Special. It's the Pudge Purge,
a haunted buffet of Halloween chaos, real stories from Halloween
past segments so spooky even Moose Animo won't nap through them,

The candy wrappers are multiplying. I saw a bag of
Dorito's Levitate, Leo's dressed does a haunted lunchable, and Lilian
is dressed as a Reese's Peanut butter cup. Tune in
