00:09:22
Speaker 3: Oh wow?

00:09:23
Speaker 1: And then from Houston at like seven in the morning, Yes, flying to Nashville. I probably landed in Nashville around nine thirty. He went straight, you know what I mean? Yes, And uh, the amount I slept was probably I got two and a half hours in on the first leg, but the second leg, I was I was just wired up.

00:09:38
Speaker 2: I was kind of just ready to get whatever it was. Yeah, but I'm going in.

00:09:41
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, it's gonna be a long day, bro. Two and a half hours of sleep on a plane. I'm gonna get home. Oh I forgot, I'm gonna get home, and like, hopefly I can just find some time to take a nap, but hey, two and a half hours sleep.

00:09:56
Speaker 2: We gotta operate good.

00:09:57
Speaker 1: Yeah, right when I land or as like everything gets done, it's like, hey, let's go get breakfast. Charlie has one of her best friends in town. Yes, she's awesome and I'm fired up. She's in town.

00:10:09
Speaker 3: Fired up.

00:10:10
Speaker 1: She's in town with Chorro. Like their homies, like they get to link up. They rarely get to maybe like once a year they see each other. Yes, so I'm happy for Yes. We go out and eat breakfast. It's it's me, Charro, best friend, and our two kiddos, and we're operating. I'm seeing the girls. We're hugging, loving on them. It's been I've been gone for what five days? I believe We're going yeah, Monday to Friday. So I'm fired up to see the fam because I was itching to get back home. And you go throughout the day and then at the end of breakfast, she's like, hey, my wife, would you want to just take the kids with you home and then we can go out, Teddy and I can go out and hit some hit some shopping or just you know, do some girl stuff.

00:10:51
Speaker 3: Look at my wife, I'm like, yeah, that's what you want me to do? Yeah?

00:10:55
Speaker 1: Hit her with one of those yeah. Fortunately, it's like, hey, I'll take one of them. We gotta go back to the house anyway, And I'm like, okay, good, we might not go out right away, like all right, thank God, Like maybe we're I'm thinking of my head, I'm trying to do the math, like, okay, what time where really c might get a little break because again, exhausted, and I know the demon as a Semen team sixer, there's like a subconscious scoreboard that's like there, even though you're not trying to participate in play in the game, but something's there of like I know, I am home and I've been gone for a while. But again, when we were at Super Bowl week, we're operating all day, like not a lot of downtime, like I was on e two hour and a half hours of sleep on the plane. I'm thinking, you're hopeful that there's some empathy. You're hopeful at any pocket in the day that there could be some type of empathy. But also on my if I'm playing my wife's side, it's you're hopeful on PT six lands that it's PT six times. I've been with them all week long, so now it's dat is turning to step up to the plate.

00:11:59
Speaker 2: I got you, I get that, and I'm on board.

00:12:02
Speaker 3: Not that's it. You're just earning extra credit, extra credit. That's extra credit, right right, right right.

00:12:08
Speaker 1: I'm thinking this could be some extra credit who knows, but either way, I know I got to operate for a few hours. Ye like I know, I gotta do my I gotta do my thing. Yeah yeah, And so they take all my Yeah, you go have fun. I'm ripping around with the kiddos, put Scottie down for a nap. You know, I'm not doing the thing, like, hey, you know what's eta or when you're coming back, I'm like, you go have go do your thing. They probably get back around maybe three thirty four o'clock, so they were going so you know several probably four or five hours they'll get doing their thing. But they get home, and part of me is like, okay, thank god. Because Rue and I were building a castle. Scotty was down for a nap. Run and I were building castle in the play area and I'm kind of like laying on my side. I end up sliding a pillow underneath my head like as I'm playing with it, like using my right arm for sure, and I catch myself start to doze.

00:12:55
Speaker 3: I'm like, man, I really need a nap. And I was like, hey, would you want to go play? Would you want to play a game?

00:13:01

Speaker 3: How we're tuckins? Did they? They went? Well?

00:17:23
Speaker 2: Let me think.

00:17:25
Speaker 3: Because that that is just the Scott.

00:17:28
Speaker 2: He's in a new vibe right now. She's in a new little wave.

00:17:31
Speaker 1: She's now like she gets restless when I'm trying to put her down to where she'll hit a little bit of the bottle. She wants to read a book, but she doesn't want to read the book she wants me to grab. There's a pile of books on the night stand like this hole, this hall. I grab one, open it might read the first page and she tries to take and pull it and she's like, eh, you wants me to read a different book. I'm like okay, so I put that one down on the ground. I'm like, okay, I'm going to hide these from hers so she can't see the stack of books anymore. We go through the entire slot of books and I'm like, yo, drink your milk, dude, like, let's let's go. Usually she drinks the milk, falls asleep. We read a book or two, but she's in a different she's on a different wave to where she's restless. She's like squirming, she wants to get down, so I like put her on the ground. I'm like, go do whatever you're trying to do. She walks over to the bookshelf to grab another book. She usually like one of those finger pop up books, like you know, you know I can. It's a square little finger puppy. Put the little finger puppet in the little rabbit and she's gotta, you know, laugh and go into the rabbit every time I to the page. Yeah, she was, you know again, she's growing. Five days gone feels like a year. You feel like Ru's, R's and L's are getting better. When you get back home the way she's talking to you on the phone, and get back home, listen to her conversations. Scotty's doing her own little thing again. She's just a minace at all times, really having to. I had to get tight with her a couple times because she just pulls Ruth's hair. Oh yeah, she gets mad at Rue. It's it's getting to where it's not as funny anymore. And I'm like, hey, buddy, like you're kind of a bully.

00:18:58
Speaker 3: It was cute at first. Yeah, but we gotta we gotta keep the bulldog mentality for the playing fields. We gotta channel it'll have an entire grip. Just like pulling her hair.

00:19:07
Speaker 1: I'm like, Scotty, stop no grabbing her hand, grabbing Rufe's hair, to like not grab Scotty, pull it or pull it away, grabbing Roof's hair, grabbing Scotty's arm, trying to like separate him and Russ. So like ruthe sweet to her most of the time. Like if it's like guarding toys, that's where it's like, I don't want Scotty to play with me. Yeah, type of thing. But Scotty's just is she.

00:19:27
Speaker 3: Still doing a good job of restraining herself real?

00:19:30
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, it's mostly emotion. She's gonna upset cries, oh for sure.

00:19:36
Speaker 3: But how how was that? The next morning? Was everything good? Yeah?

00:19:41
Speaker 1: I probably fell asleep probably around ten. I got a good nine hours in good good. I was a sleepy boy.

00:19:49
Speaker 3: Bro.

00:19:49
Speaker 1: I popped open some uh for whatever reason, I couldn't just like bring myself to go to bed. After I put the kids down, I was like, if they're out having a couple of drinks, like Caleb Presley hit me up not too long ago when I was thinking about his chicken cheetah.

00:20:02
Speaker 3: So I'm like, I'm gonna go get some some of that peanut butter tequila.

00:20:05
Speaker 1: Yes, because I was like organizing the whiskey shelf and everything the whiskey shells in the house. I was like, I'm gonna go drink me some uh some peanut butter tequila. And I was like, this is gonna kill my sleep. But you know what, fuck it, dude, Dad, I wants a little bit of it.

00:20:20
Speaker 3: Dad.

00:20:20
Speaker 1: I wants to sip a little something, a little juice, and who knows, we might be hitting the shockwave with mom. Yeah, that didn't happen.

00:20:28
Speaker 3: Why you break a peanut butter in tequila? What are you doing? Wife?

00:20:32
Speaker 2: Oh man, I'm exhausted. I'm just laying there with my face a.

00:20:35
Speaker 1: Little numb, thinking, God, I just gotta I gotta get something going.

00:20:40
Speaker 2: Didn't happen? Just we just you look beautiful to night?

00:20:43
Speaker 3: You look good? Did you eat a peebe?

00:20:47
Speaker 2: And Jay?

00:20:50
Speaker 3: I love you, babe. I had a massive dad loss that I just remembered halfway through your story. By the way, Matt, maybe maybe my biggest to date. I will get reamed in the comments.

00:21:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, how you also have the greatest dad game dad hack oh date that you will be talking about eventually.

00:21:13
Speaker 3: I do have that too, so I really quickly the dad loss. I'm gonna get reamed in the comments. But here we go. Uh, Jill thought that my mom was coming in town this week. That goes into my dad hack.

00:21:26
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:21:28
Speaker 3: Uh. And in preparation of her thinking that my mom was coming in town, we are deep cleaning the house, which includes all of our Amazon boxes that I love when my wife orders stuff on Amazon, and well, it's honestly a lot of fun. We'll put all the boxes by the back door, by the trash cans, and we pile we try to pile them as high as we can. And then where I come in is I then we'll take the boxes. I'll go like rip them and tear them up and put them in our trash bin. But we didn't have any room in the trash bin. So then my plan B is one time I asked Gee if I could throw stuff away in our dumpster here and he was like yeah, if it's empty, and I was like, okay, I'll go check the dumpster at Bustin as I'm leaving the dumpster or leaving to go to the dumpster, Jill's also like, can you pick up dinner? And she's hungry, so she wants food. Fat Bear's hung Mama Bear is hungry, yes, and she's like, go get the burritos, shout out Baha burrito, and get back asap. So when I get here and I see three Christmas trees and our dumpster, I'm like, Okay, our boxes aren't fitting in there, but there's an industrial complex around here. I'll just go find a random dumpster.

00:22:45
Speaker 2: How fun is that?

00:22:47
Speaker 3: It's so much fun? And I do it all the time, And that's the part that I feel like I'm gonna get reamed in the comments.

00:22:52
Speaker 2: But I just because use random dumpsters.

00:22:54
Speaker 3: I fucking love throwing boxes and random dumpsters. Dude, I love it, Dude.

00:22:59
Speaker 1: I think there is a an adrenaline rush's pt sixers. They go out because it was we had a similar situation to where a wife you wanted the boxes gone. Of course, dads are hall of famers when it comes to breaking down or getting rid of boxes. And you go around and you kind of feel a little nervous. Is everybody around? I go up to a school.

00:23:22
Speaker 3: Oh, buy a local school thereby late at night.

00:23:27
Speaker 2: Oh, the middle school.

00:23:28
Speaker 3: Let's drive around the intermediate even better because.

00:23:33
Speaker 2: I go to the high school, like, Okay, it's a little too wide open.

00:23:35
Speaker 1: I feel like I see I see a truck there, and I'm like, okay, the dudes inside there's a camera also looking at me. And you just start playing these mental warfare games, like man, they're dialing in on me right now.

00:23:46
Speaker 3: So I threw a couple in. Then I'm like, you know what, I'm gonna get out of here for the coffee plate. Then you get back in the truck and driver and let's go try to find another one. You're a multiple. Yeah. Yeah.

00:24:00
Speaker 2: The trip that I'm talking about happened though right before.

00:24:02
Speaker 1: I think on Sunday, before we left for the super Bowl, and I'm out ripping around Nashville.

00:24:05
Speaker 3: Okay, maybe I'm maybe I won't get read, maybe I won't get read in the comment.

00:24:10
Speaker 1: I think PT. I think fathers completely. I hit a fellow. Dad's like, hey, I know you are. You're the goat. He's my go to on Like, hey, where's the dump what dumpsters you use around this area? He's like he sent me a list of three. This one's probably best at first, but if not, go to this one.

00:24:27
Speaker 3: Put put me in that, put me in that group text. I could use that group text. Yeah. I think Dad's are out there right now being liked. Okay, I'm not the only one. I'm not the only one, he does. Okay. Good. So I start going around this industrial complex we office near, and I find the most beautiful, empty, ginormous dumpster of all time. And I'm chucking stuff too. I'm chucking old pillows, old blankets, tons of boxes. Yeah, dum battery bro. And I'm making sure they're leaking acid. And as I'm throwing it in there, I swear to you, I just hear the biggest fucking dog ever.

00:25:03
Speaker 2: I go good.

00:25:04
Speaker 3: They got a junk yard dog rot wild good, it sounded like one. And they got these big bob wire fences. I'm just like, oh, this is awesome. I'm just dumping it in there fastward. I wake up the next morning and Jill has our daughter on her hip and she's shaking me, and she goes, but you told me and threw away those boxes. You told me and threw away those boxes. I'm like, what why? Hey, what's going on? What's going on? Why are you yelling at me? You told me you threw away those boxes last night. They're all in our in our driveway. It's like, bro, they brought every single one back because rookie mistake. And I usually do rip the shipping label off of it. Forgot to rip the shipping label off of it because I was in such a rush, and they put every single thing that I put in that dumb sure they put it in my driveway.

00:25:59
Speaker 2: Are you able to say the place?

00:26:01
Speaker 3: No, okay, you don't want to give well, I just don't want to give up the Where our office is It is quite literally just down the street. I'll show you the dumpster if you want to go see it.

00:26:13
Speaker 6: Damn.

00:26:14
Speaker 2: Part of me gets scared.

00:26:15
Speaker 1: I get as I'm putting it in, I'm like, man, there's there's there's my but Dan, I'm like, that's the old address.

00:26:23

00:26:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, we we we we pay for those. Oh ship, my bad man. I would do this. Let me get in the truck you want me to take. You can leave them in there, but just don't do any more, Okay, got you? Yeah, I would do the the Steve BALBONI was my thing in college where I'd find work sites with those huge work dumpsters, and that's where I would chuck and they'd be like hey. I'd be like, are y'all, are y'all with the crew. They'd be like yeah. I'd be like, all right, just get my thumbs up, and they're like, he must be something. I mean, he looks confident enough. Yeah. Do you guys ever ditch a mattress in one before? No? I mean we had a mattress.

00:27:15
Speaker 4: I had a mini van I used to sell in and me and my buddy tied his old mattress to the top of it. Wanted a back alley, and Pittsburgh cut the ropes and just had it slide off and pulled away as if somebody cared.

00:27:25
Speaker 3: Nobody cared. It was the thrill of a lifetime. Dude.

00:27:27
Speaker 1: It is something about driving around offloading your trash in somebody's dumpster, and I get I completely get the anger that businesses and other people come from. Oh for sure, if people doing that to ours, we want to find out you hope the labels on it. We would immediately find whoever's ready to readily drive and go dumping in their front yard.

00:27:48
Speaker 3: So I get that. Yeah, it's like the mischievousness. Oh dude, it feels so good.

00:27:52
Speaker 2: And it might have been the same situation with you.

00:27:55
Speaker 1: But we missed like trash recycling because of the ice storm. I want to say, Oh, we were backed up heavily to were even part of me when I was going to do it instaid high school, middle school. Yeah, Like I'm like, okay, maybe they'll have Like okay, people are just trying to people just trying to get their shit back together.

Speaker 3: Yeah, Karma is struck in a big way because my trash day has been moved and I missed trash day this it was this morning.

00:28:21
Speaker 1: You want to know how karma struck me. When I was doing the offloading the trash, we had probably six won't say the next number. We had probably six bags of diaper trash bags. WI one busts on me. We're trying to boom, I pick I pick up the no. Yeah, the trash bag of diapers, and it ripped out. It rips right before I take off, and all of them fall in the ground. And I'm sitting there kind of in a panic because you know, you're trying to be kind of quick. It's like you're in you're in ground zero, you're behind enemy lines, and the dumpster you're not supposed to be at, so you're trying to move fast, asked god, I wish I.

00:29:01
Speaker 2: Could see, and one rips, I immediately stop.

00:29:04
Speaker 1: I'll look up at the camera and then I just start like picking them up and like putting them in the putting them in the dust.

00:31:07
Speaker 7: I go to drag this bag out. I can't pick it up. I drag it out right in front of her in the living room. It catches the front door, rips open rotten chicken all over our living room and front porch. She just gets proven right right there, and she's like she didn't even have to say it, like I thought you so that's.

00:31:23
Speaker 1: Where you feel such a rage that you might morph into the hulk.

00:31:27
Speaker 7: I was so proud of myself for restraining my anger because she was right. She was not even rude about it, like she like gave me good advice. I didn't take it, and just right in front of I just silently just picked it up with my hands, just putting it back.

00:31:38
Speaker 3: Hey dad, dad hacked dude, by the way, mine the end of course, Papa Sherham when he was in town, got me some those contractor bags, just having them just for any situation. Dude. You never know when you're gonna use one of those cumungous contractor bags.

00:31:55
Speaker 2: Nothing like just dad talk talking trash with the.

00:31:59
Speaker 3: Not even that wasn't even written down on our things to talk about, dude. It's just the love of the game.

00:32:04
Speaker 1: Love of the game. And there's no l to take like the one you take in front of your girl, in front of your wife when they're trying to give you advice or tell you something and you're like, okay, you pipe.

00:32:13
Speaker 7: Down, there's a rip and then it happens and you're like, it's not even an argument.

00:32:16
Speaker 3: It's just like shit, you're right, and you got to own it.

00:32:20
Speaker 1: But now she's got it. The next time she gives you recommendation, yeah exactly. You know what, you sweetheart, You are beautiful, you are right. Most of the time. I will listen to this.

00:32:29
Speaker 3: It's probably a good take. Yeah, good take. I but yes, that was my Dad loss very quickly into the Dad hack.

00:32:38
Speaker 2: I got very quickly.

00:32:40
Speaker 3: Come on now, okay, okay, this is this is Dad game, right, this is Dad game and the Dixons are tuned in. Bro. I will be so honest to say that, like I stumbled into this Dad hack. But essentially what it has turned into is my mom was planning on coming in February and the so she was gonna come or this week. However, Jill's we moved here from Texas. Jill misses her friends dearly, like Charles's friend that she sees once a year. That's these two are That's it that for her. And she's not homesick, but she, dude, she's just missing home. She's missing her girls, and she's telling me about it all the time. And I'm like, man, we got to get back to Texas and we got to figure something out for her to visit fam. And all of a sudden, Lauren Lolo texts me and says, hey, me and Abby really want to come up and surprise Jill. What would be a good week? And I'm like light bulb, oh my god, because Jill's awful with surprises, terrible at him, like she will figure it out every single time, and I was like, I have the perfect one. She already thinks my mom's coming in town. I already have plaine itinerary that I can show Jill. And we just moved my mom coming in town to the end of the month, and I told my mom just completely go with it, that you're still coming in town. And I couldn't have played it any better of just because Jill always says, oh, you do a terrible job of like planning stuff whenever your mom's coming in down and like you're you're always so reluctant to get the house clean and stuff. But I'm like, I'm like excited. I'm so excited because I know how much joy is going to like come out of her friends coming that I'm having to pretend like this is just a regular family members coming in town. Shouldn't we get the carpet cleaner from home depot and make sure all the good honey, I don't do we really have to do that, but in the back of my mom like, I would love to do that because we got to get the house and when's your mom come in? I don't even know, like I'll text her. She hasn't even texted me back. I'm trying to call her. I'll honey, I'll figure it out. I don't know when she's coming in the morning of the pickup. Does your mom land at nine? I told her earlier time than what it actually was, so that she'd be ready with Scarlett, And I'm like, I'm like, I think, I don't. I don't know. Oh it's no, it's ten forty five, so like we have some time. That's when the box debacle happened. By the way, was during all that I had to go pickure you.

00:35:15
Speaker 1: Know, all the massive surprise is about the land well and somebody give me dump the boxes off.

00:35:20
Speaker 2: I thought she handled the boxes.

00:35:21
Speaker 3: Bro. She has no makeup on, no nothing going, like hair's not even really done up, super nice going to the airport. So I know I have succeeded because anytime she knows that, like a picture's gonna be done, she's got a cute outfit. She's We're just picking up sherm's mom from the airport, and I'm like, God, we fucking killed it. And I'll show the video. I'll put it like in the episode edit. But I go, hey, I faked a phone call with my mom. And I was like, hey, she said, you and Scarlet can go in there. Her bags haven't come out yet at baggage claim, and she was like, oh okay. She's like, you want to go, see Sonny, you want to go? And I just see her go through the glass doors and then I see her pace picking up like through the windows. So I wasn't inside for it, but dude, I was just like, God, we murdered this. And then now it's just been this entire like euphoric week of like her smile is so big. Do she's so freakin' happy. Your friends are so happy. They have matching Valentine's Day pajamas that they're all wearing right now at the house and they're getting pictures, and there's babies crawling everywhere. We've already dealt with the ear infection. One of the baby's ears bursted on the plane and they had to go to a doctor right when they land. It's kind of like there's been some trenches here and there, but like, oh, dude, when you have three moms in the same under the same roof, like anything is possible. They don't need me for anything. And people on social media are like, oh, suirm's out number blah blah blah. I'm like, in the best way possible, I'm like a superhero. If I start a fire in the fireplace, I'm a superhero if I do if I lift a finger at the house. They're like, Sherman's so helpful and so sweet, and I'm like, yeah, you know.

00:37:09
Speaker 1: You know Sherman's in a good pocket too, because I saw you tweet too, like they went to Target, you were watching all the kid Oh yeah, yeah. But it's like the dad mode that he would have to be in normally is like all right, you say one friend was in town, or say my situation, you guys go out, I'll watch the kids. But you having the friends that are also moms with their kids in town, they're doing the mom thing. You're not going to be taking care of their kids, so Jill's not going to be like pressing you like, oh, I'll do well, I'll do it together.

00:37:37
Speaker 2: Now you just kind of get to kick back and relax a little bit.

00:37:40
Speaker 3: Truly, And they're like they're like, oh my gosh, like their kids, Margo and Jane, They're like, oh Jane is smiling at Sherman. Oh my gosh, Margo wants to hug Sherman and I'm like, yeah. They like, everything's a win, everything's positive. And they're like, let's buy you dinner. Oh, don't do the dish. I will do that. I'm like, oh my god, this is like the greatest the entire world.

00:38:08
Speaker 1: They all can't get out, Momed, they all can't get out. You're just playing hero ball. You want me to watch Scarlett and you go, hang, oh, they got their kids too, I'll take Scarlett.

00:38:18
Speaker 2: I'll take Scarlett as well. Gig out, mom, you don't have to do that.

00:38:21
Speaker 3: And then the best part was last night when they were going to Target. They all have like Nana apps set up for the individual sleep chambers that they've built for their kids. Bro. So many dad hacks have come out this week. They make tints that you can put over those packing play beds that like block out all the light. I'll send a pick to you. I was like, that's actually sick. So your kid can be sleeping in the same room, but they're like kind of chambered in there. But they all have Nana apps. So when they went to Target, I was like, honey, do I need to stay on the couch? Why you are at target or is it okay if I like go to the bed and just sit on my phone. And her friends were like, oh my gosh, sure you can go to the bet and Jill's like no, no, like you should probably be on the account ball ball. I was like, oh, okay, yeah yeah, and they're like, no, he could be a bad blah blah. I was like, yay, ain't see see hey yeah yeah yeah yeah, come on hey they're saying it. You see, it's all good. If I go just kick my feet up on the bed, like this is incredible. And I ended up getting to go kick my feet up in the bed. It was awesome. Dude, It's been unreal. We gotta do this way more.

00:39:38
Speaker 2: You've this move has re set a standard for PT six.

00:39:46
Speaker 3: He hasn't. It hasn't even rest his standard though from the like, I saw some comments on social media husband of the year, dad of the year, what a great like. I'm like, I'll pay him, but no, I will take him, but do it yourself and I'll see how easy it is that I don't deserve.

00:40:03
Speaker 1: Tapped into something, whether you call failing ford, stumbled into or whatever. When the light bulb went off, you found something that's like you almost can't touch.

00:40:12
Speaker 2: You can't it, but if you do.

00:40:15
Speaker 3: Somehow get in that stratosphere, that atmosphere, that air.

00:40:22
Speaker 2: It's talking to God.

00:40:23
Speaker 3: Oh, it's like talking. And dude, their husbands, they're like at home planet. They're they're playing video games, they're hanging with the boys for everybody. They're they're so happy. They're so happy at home and they get their little face times.

00:40:37
Speaker 1: And think about that surprise factor. It kind of bumps me out. You didn't get that. You saw her pace pick up in the airport when she got the you know what I mean? Like first seed, did any of her friends tic video?

00:40:45
Speaker 3: They did, and I'll put it in that episode. She just starts sobbing. It's not like the best video ever, but like she just loses.

00:40:53
Speaker 2: It's an amazing video. Probably sucks for her because she's like, I'm not done up, I'm crying. I'm doing this.

00:40:58
Speaker 3: No, like she won't mind me posted, but like it's shaky and stuff. Amazing. Yeah, dude, you know.

00:41:06
Speaker 1: You think you're going up to pick up your mother in law and they can have the greatest relationship ever.

00:41:11
Speaker 3: Shout out miss Amy. They each other and yes.

00:41:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, but seeing a couple of your best friends with their kiddos standing there at baggage claim.

00:41:21
Speaker 3: She You can see in the video she stutters twice because she's like, the fuck, what are you guys doing that? Am I seeing? Like? Am I seeing something real?

00:41:31
Speaker 2: And how how long were they here?

00:41:33
Speaker 3: They're here till Thursday?

00:41:40
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and Jill has a whole week off, so she's elated. Bro. They went to the zoo yesterday. They got all matching outfits for the girls they got Like, dude, dude, I'm telling you, it's not me, it's the the If we're looking for a factor in the equation to make this happen, you just have to make sure that your wife's friends rock, that they're awesome and super sweet and helpful, and like you love having them in your home. Like that's really the only two factors. It's like, yeah, my wife's friends suck, and they're they're here and they're yelling at me and blah blah blah. Get that. But like once you click play, you just step back. You're like, oh my god.

00:42:22
Speaker 1: Sounds like it's still be worth the potential beating verbal beating at times.

00:42:26
Speaker 3: Probably if one of the friends kind of sucked, I would say, totally go for it, dude, and then that's kind of their problem. That's a massive w Bro, Bravo, thank you got it. Yeah, I mean it's been incredible. It's been incredible. Charles listening to this right now, thinking like, man, I hope we'll do something like this for me one day.

00:42:43
Speaker 1: Oh, dude, you eat all the empty sixers. Everybody's rooting for this, That's what I'm saying.

00:42:49
Speaker 2: I feel like this is a.

00:42:50
Speaker 3: Everyone wins, dude, Everyone wins. And even if you're not the guy to do it, you're you might be one of the husbands that finds out about this secret plan. Well, honey, let me help you pack. I mean, we got to make sure the surprise is good. You know.

00:43:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that.

00:43:06
Speaker 4: Black I'd say, what happened? You're depriving guys with their families. Yeah, I mean we can celebrate it.

00:43:17
Speaker 3: But and Derek, I didn't. I appreciate you like I gotta keep you honest. I know, and I do appreciate that because there are two dads out there that aren't getting to see their their daughters for four days.

00:43:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's keep you strong armed a couple of pet sixers families from them. Yeah, for three nights, four days, three nights.

00:43:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, where they're gonna have to be hanging out at the house, eating whatever they want, watching whatever they want, playing whatever they want.

00:43:46
Speaker 1: Getting worse at life essentially. Oh no, I mean think about it.

00:43:50
Speaker 3: You eat piece of you eat junk food, you play video games, you have a few beers, you have freedom, you have nobody in the house.

00:43:56
Speaker 1: You got a little silence. Somebody equate it to peace and quiet. I I equate it to tour.

00:44:00

Speaker 1: We love them, honestly, Yes, love Ollipop. I forget who I was. Oh, I think it was somebody with our with a show boat. Was it Savannah, because a hilarious story about you about wanting to get what was it? What's the grocery store out in LA with the Haley Bieber smoothie.

00:47:52
Speaker 3: I can hear her saying it too. It's like our away or our away, something like the.

Speaker 4: E R E W h O n Arowin grove arowin irowin Arawa strawberry.

00:48:05
Speaker 1: It's a phenomenal, you know, it's an incredible grocery store. But we were going and picking up our lunch, and I was on the search is I need to get a Chris Bapple lollipop?

00:48:12
Speaker 3: She she called me. Essentially she works with Ollipop and shout out Savannah. They do a great job and she she told me she was just a little bit concerned because Ollipop was saying, this is the most we've ever shipped to a podcast. He's really drinking.

00:48:27
Speaker 1: Did she tell you She's like, oh, Will actually really loves Ollipop.

00:48:30

00:48:43
Speaker 1: And when I was tweeting about Ollipop before Ollipop even came into the picture of Bust with the boys before the dads and it's She's like, oh you actually really like oh yeah, I'm not fucking around.

00:48:54
Speaker 3: She said she saw you scratching at your neck as you were walking through the soda isle.

00:48:58
Speaker 1: Because I was trying to find Chris Bapple and they were kind of restocking some different drinks and I wasn't seeing.

00:49:03
Speaker 3: Chris Bapple because they're selling out constantly. Yeah, I'm sure Chris Bapple they are, oh big time.

00:49:09
Speaker 1: Probably because of that, That's what I tell myself is because of this pod. But during the IY storm, when I was doing the videos and talking about all this Target has Chris Bapple on West End, YadA YadA YadA, like gas stations and spots that I would go to to get Chris pap ollipop like they were empty. Yes, there's a bunch of other flavors. Chris Bapple was out and watermelon Lione. I would have like one or two left.

00:49:29
Speaker 3: You want you want to here's a dad hack. You want to find ollipop really quick? Go to Target, so to aisle and you're gonna see everything's gonna look beautifully stocked. And find that little gap where it looks like nothing's there. Go straight there and look in the back and there's gonna be like three ollipops left because they're flying off the shelves. Yeah.

00:49:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a good I have a solid Cracker cole on this week, one that I'm honestly excited to talk about. Okay, let me, let me let me look. I love my family, I love all the Cracker cole ones.

00:49:56
Speaker 2: I talk about this one.

00:49:57
Speaker 1: I was giddy to kind of talk about because surprised me. The other night we were doing bedtime. You know, it was either one of the first times I was home, and she was like we kind of read a lot of the same books every night. Yeah, I'm sure parents, you'll sit there, you'll have an entire bookshelf with all these children's books and all these things what you stocked it with, and fun reads and everything else. But your little one always gets accustomed to these few They love to just recycle, which is which is always fun. But there are these books that I've always been fascinated with that I would read the rue when she was probably like maybe a little before two years old. When I first came across this book, I want to say, char might have bought it.

00:50:33
Speaker 2: And it's called What You Do with an Idea? By a Kobe Yamada.

00:50:37
Speaker 3: You read it to us?

00:50:38
Speaker 1: I read another book because when I went down to somewhere in Franklin, we were shopping in one of these little one of these little stores, and the Kobe Yamaa is a Yamada Yamada, Kobe Yamada, that's right, And that's the author of this book. And he's got a series. And when I realized he has a series of books, not just What You Do with an Idea, I was like, I need all of these books.

00:50:58
Speaker 3: Yes, dude, which one did you read to us? In office? Because it wasn't the idea one.

00:51:02
Speaker 1: It wasn't the idea one, and it's so funny you bring that up, and for everybody listening, this was a legitimate team meeting. One day, I read a Kobe Yamada book in front of the team to the team. Yeah, like very serious. I was being serious about it, even though these are like children's books. And I'm stoked because Ru's three, She's gonna be four in April. Yeah, I feel like she's she started when I read this book. We're sitting there talking about it and talking through it and everything else was I am obsessed with Yeah, because you always want to, you know, you want to. You want to help give them philosophies or things that like frameworks to form like when they're going through things. And I'll get into what you do with an idea. But the one I made, the one I read to you guys, was trying, trying, trying because you fail over and over and trying, and it had a lot of good Again, they're like short reads. It's a children's book, and I'm legitimately reading this to the team because I'm like, I feel like this would be great for everybody.

00:51:53
Speaker 3: You were showing us the illustrations as well. You were in full dad reading mode. He had the book turned and he was reading to us like this, turning the pages, seriously. Read the video of it. I'll put it in that episode I recorded. I recorded.

00:52:07
Speaker 2: But he's got a bunch of books, dude.

00:52:09
Speaker 1: It's like I talked in here Koby Yamada books, and there's some right here that I'm not even I haven't even known that they were out there. But what you do with an idea maybe what you do with a problem, what you do with a chance. Because I had a teacher finding muchness, trying, noticing why not, chasing dreams, feeling grateful.

00:52:34
Speaker 2: I want all of these.

00:52:35
Speaker 1: This is this is like, this is a massive shout out to Cobin Yamada because I love these children's books and kind of the frameworks they give you as a parent for like story time and reading along when your little one starts to get curious and ask you questions. But what you do with an idea is essentially this little boy he finds this idea, and the idea is like a little pet egg with a crown on it, and he finds this idea and he kind of likes the idea, And then when he thinks about with this idea, what he could do with this idea, he gets a little shy and scared and worried and anxiety about it. What if he shows off this idea, this little weird egg in front of people, Like if he brings the idea in front of.

00:53:13
Speaker 2: People, like what if they laugh at it?

00:53:15
Speaker 3: What if they you know, talk it down and mock you, and all of these things, and it kind of sends him back, and I don't want anything to do with the idea because what the world externally has told me now that I've brought the idea in front of everybody.

00:53:29
Speaker 1: But he realized, the little boy realizes the idea wouldn't leave him. It would stay around and watch him do things out in the field or around these animals. And then one day he realized he wanted to He loved the idea so much. He didn't just want to throw away the idea, because the idea would stick around and he would nurture it and feed and love on it, and you know, and still confident he would get it confidence in himself with the idea and be obsessed over this idea to one day. Then one day he takes the idea and it starts not only changing him, but changing everything around him. Like there's these illustrations where the grass gets greener. It starts off in like black and white, but the egg is like yellow, and you have the yellow crown and everything else. And throughout the illustrations of the story, the forest gets green, the animals start to get color. It starts to like get rooted. It starts showing the roots like underground, because the idea is changing the boy. And then the boy brings the idea. He builds the idea house so they could sit and look at the stars and dream and talk about other ideas with the animals. And then one day the idea touches. They get to a town, and the idea touches the town so much that it changes everything around the environment to where one day the idea the little egg, it gets bigger and bigger. It takes wings and blasts off into the sky and it becomes like this big white orbit and changes the entire world. And it's like, what do you do with an idea? You change the world. And that is how it ends. And then the crown is on the boy's head at the end of it because he's just kind of reminiscing on this is what you do with an idea? Yeah, because there's gonna be times where I have fears. You're like talking with your little one because she's asking you questions, and I'm just so obsessed that she's starting to ask questions like this, because I get into like I'll like add words myself throughout the story, and then you kind of get in a little bit of lecture time because she's so focused on the questions she's asking and what you're saying to your little one to where you're just talking about you know, anytime you wanted to ride your bike and you were scared, or in any example, or when you're shy in front of people, or you might want to tell somebody the idea and you want dadad to say the idea. You don't want to save the idea, like all those fears and insecurities that happen, Yeah, and you kind of don't want to share it because you're worried about how the response might be to you, And just you dive into all of those things and I'm obsessed with the book.

00:55:44
Speaker 2: So Mike crack a cult.

00:55:45
Speaker 1: When this week goes to Kobe Yamada in the book, in particular, what you do with an idea, what you do with a problem is awesome, Trying is awesome, but what you do with an idea was kind of the first one that I'm sitting there and we're doing story time and I'm like, Yo, this book rips.

00:56:01
Speaker 3: I cannot put my stamp of approval on this anymore because and I'm furious. I'm meant to text you shout out Jill. She bought that idea book and I read it to Scarlett in a nighttime tuck in, and I thought to myself, these illustrations and the premise of this book reminds me a lot of that book that will read. I bet this is the same author. And as I was going through the book as well, I truly was like, I've never seen the idea of stepping out and being kind of like a a creator or like a creative or having you know something that you're wanting to build be illustrated so beautifully, so eloquently, even for an adult dude. I was reading the book and going hell, yeah, yeah, hell yeah, this is exactly what it's like when you're trying to cannot put my stamp of approval on it anymore. I love that book, and you're.

00:57:00
Speaker 1: Sitting there reading it and knowing, like you know, when Rus one or one and a half or whatever, I'm like, all right, there's there's nothing that I can give her of substance right now, Like I personally love this book because you're right, like even as an adult, and you're talking about what you do with an idea and nurturing it and feeding it and pouring everything you can into this idea because you love it so much, and they people might not love it now, but if you if you stick with it and again continue to pour into it as often as much as you can, where you're just obsessed with it, one day you're going to start changing lives. And then those people that were laughing at it starts coming around, because nothing's cool until it's cool, and then you you know, you change the world, and your world might just be a few people at.

00:57:40
Speaker 3: First, the world might be the world like it's it's unbelievable.

00:57:45
Speaker 1: Even in parenthood, where you're you know, essentially you're you have to have like an ego death with your old life in a way of all of your responsibility now goes into your kid to where there's some friction at times with say you're or your spouse or your partner that you have a kid with, to where you're having to adapt and change a lot of your old ways because now you have the biggest responsibility, the biggest blessing of all time. Yes, and at first, like your kid can even be the idea of the egg. Yeah, where all right, I don't want to change all my habits with the fellows or hey, we're still gonna get together, We're still gonna do all these things. And then you realize you kind of can't. And then you hear, oh, so and so you've changed. You don't play video games with us anymore. You changed all these things where you feel like, you know, the group's kind of like they might not hit have kids, so they don't get it, and they might be in their group chats whatever assumptions you might have in your brain. But you're going back to the kid, and you're pouring everything into the kid, nurturing it, loving it, feeding it.

00:58:45
Speaker 2: This it is the egg. The kid is the egg. And then one day the kid.

00:58:49
Speaker 1: Is going to have all these philosophies and frameworks that they got from you and mom and the people that you've you've surrounded them with and they're gonna go out and change the world and whatever that looks like to them. Isn't that crazy and incredible to think about? Yeah, it's awesome.

00:59:05
Speaker 3: It's I mean, I have a seven month old, so I'm really just reading a book out loud to myself. And that's the only book that I've I've read like forty to Scarlet that as I'm going through it, I'm like hell, yes, after every single page, I'm just like, this is awesome. These are a series of.

00:59:24
Speaker 1: Books too that I'm just talking to parents, you will just love, like Sherman saying, you will individually love reading them. Yeah, you'd be like, oh, snap, bedtime, story time, Like let's hope.

00:59:35
Speaker 3: This is very applicable to me as a parent or as an adult, or as an uncle or as a like whatever. Yeah.

00:59:41
Speaker 2: And that author.

00:59:43
Speaker 1: Once I saw that that author had all these books trying is Once I saw that, I'm like, oh my gosh, he's got He's got books with an idea, a problem, having a chance, why not chasing dreams of finding muchness Because I had a teacher like all of these things where I want I recommend every parent to get them all.

01:00:00
Speaker 3: Go get them like like Pokemon.

01:00:02
Speaker 2: I don't even know if I said what rude? Did I say?

01:00:04
Speaker 8: What?

01:00:04
Speaker 2: Rue surprised me with no all to say.

01:00:08
Speaker 1: Rue was fired up for story time and bedtime and she was like, I don't come in my room. I want to surprise you. And she's like, uh, okay, that you can come in my room. And she was like the surprises under my covers and I'm like, okay, what is it.

01:00:22
Speaker 2: She's like a story time.

01:00:23
Speaker 1: She's like, I think it's your favorite and I lift open the covers and it's what you do with an idea.

01:00:29
Speaker 2: And I was like, let's go, dude.

01:00:32
Speaker 3: And you had already read it to her, right, I've read it to her before. She knows how much I love. Yeah.

01:00:37
Speaker 1: Like they'll be like, what's the thick book where it's got all the tales, like I think they call him like.

01:00:44
Speaker 2: Not nursery rhymes.

01:00:45
Speaker 3: The brothers.

01:00:47
Speaker 1: It's got a lot of different like uh rapunk Hanseling, Gretel, all the Germanic like fairytale type, right, but I know they call them something. But they're all of these little books in this massive book. So we'll sit there and go through. We'll sit there and read those, but she gets in phases with some of her story time. Yeah, but dude, when she lifted that up, I was so fired up.

01:01:10
Speaker 3: That's electric Because as much as I like sit.

01:01:12
Speaker 1: There and I want to force the book on her, there's been times I'm like, oh, hey, what if we read we haven't read that what you do with the idea? And I don't want to read that one. I'm just like, part of you is like sad. You're like, damn, I just want you to get into something like this because this is these are frameworks.

01:01:26
Speaker 3: Of life, Honey, It's got to click at some point.

01:01:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, years old. Yeah, so what is your idea?

01:01:33
Speaker 3: Maybe next time the surprise could be your idea because in the yeah homework.

01:01:40
Speaker 1: In the book too, you know, when you get to the page to where the kids standing on his hands, the idea, you know, instill the confidence to where he's standing on his hands and you see the world from a different vantage point. You can flip the book and then it's him kind of holding up the town and everything else to where you see it differently, and all you're doing is flipping the But it's just I think it is unbelievab.

01:02:00
Speaker 3: Yeah, I I cannot agree more. Retweet, like share everything that you just said.

01:02:07

It was her first time eating pizza, so shout out that. But she's munching on that bread and she's putting the cheese in her mouth and she's loving the cheese, and she's looking at everybody at the table.

01:07:23
Speaker 3: Hi.

01:07:23
Speaker 1: Boys, My husband Scott has been listening to the pod since it started. Since it was a podcast for dads, I assumed I wouldn't like it, but one day he listened, or one day he was listening to to Afford the Dad's episode on YouTube, and I got hooked. When my husband first told me about the pod, I thought he said it was will and charming like the toilet paper. So now that is our little inside joke. Sorry, sure, I'm laugh out loud. Last year, we found out that we were pregnant just two days after Valentine's Day.

01:07:49
Speaker 2: Okay, shock wave.

01:07:50
Speaker 1: Now we have a three month old baby boy, Sawyer, born October thirty. First, we have a Spooktober Halloween. Maybe this year for Valentine's Day. We are not going to do gifts for each other, although y'all reading this email on the pod would be a sick gift. But we are trying to stay on budget because I am officially a stay.

01:08:08
Speaker 2: At home mom as of the end of January.

01:08:12

01:39:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, lovely story.

01:39:31
Speaker 2: Who did the three squeeze? Yeah, go ahead and read it.

01:39:33
Speaker 4: This is from Charles. I did squeezed his hand three times and he did it back. Cool because we now do the three hand squeezes with Ruin Scottie. I think we didn't actually say the words until like a week later. It was lying in bed one night at his old Ashbourn townhouse in late June twenty seventeen, right before he took me to bond Tie for the first time for Fourth of July.

01:39:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fun, off and the three squeezes is like, that's what we do with the kiddos.

01:40:00
Speaker 3: That's an epic story. Yeah.

01:40:02
Speaker 1: I couldn't remember if she squeezed first or if I squeeze first. I just know it was reciprocated, and we both kind of knew what was a little uncomfortable. And then it happens like for real, like a week later. You know, you're kind of playing the game.

01:40:15
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, yeah, come on man, hey, come on man, Happy Valentine's Day.

01:40:24
Speaker 2: And then when you see your kiddos doing it with each other one, two, three, I love you.

01:40:29
Speaker 3: Because they're an egg and you got it.

01:40:34
Speaker 2: You gotta nurture, you gotta feed it.

01:40:36
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right. Mine is I did coming back from a date from Dallas and we stopped in the Fort Worth water Gardens. I pulled off I thirty and I took her down to the center of the Fort Worth Water Gardens. I told her I loved her. I'm gonna no, no, no, that's for extra credit. I was about. I was like, we're calling her right already. I'll just read it.

01:41:02
Speaker 4: Sherman with an exclamation mark. We were driving back from a fun night out in Dallas and he pulled over and took me to the water gardens downtown and told me he loved me for real. But the first time he ever did was we were joking and talking in bed and he said love you and then backtracked because he got embarrassed. And I said, that's not embarrassing because he's my best friend. And then his eyes watered. He got emotional.

01:41:24
Speaker 3: In all caps, that is also true. I started backtracking because I was trying to play it cool, and she said that's okay. The ye're like, you're my best friend the whole world. And then I sawed tearing up. I was like, I'm your best friend, like I like her. Did she say it back right away or did she say you're my best friend? No? Like she It was like a like I love you back type of thing and saying like you're my favorite person in the world, like, you're my best friend. So when you said love you, did she say I love you too? Yeah, so like that something like that. It wasn't like yeah, yeah, but I'm thinking that's funny.

01:42:06
Speaker 1: It wasn't like a you know, trying to be oh, dude, you're my best friend.

01:42:13
Speaker 2: I appreciate that.

01:42:14
Speaker 3: It was like just friends with Ryan. It wasn't like yes, it wasn't like a friend zone type of thing. It was like her way of like trying to make me feel better in the moment because because she.

01:42:27
Speaker 2: Didn't say it back right away.

01:42:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know though, I don't I don't remember, like what she your lover her man you love hard? Oh yeah yeah, but she she is too, she is too. And I can't remember if she said I love you back or like I love you too, but she said something along those lines. And then because I botched that so much, I was like, I want I want to tell her that I love her, like for real. And that's why that's why I did the water garden thing, because we had had such a great date night and I was like her didn't know that, like I do love her, I'm not I'm not scared to share that and the Fort Worth Water Gardens. If you ever go beautiful? Is that the game? Is that the game? That was a fun game. I know you have something at one thirty. We need to wrap here soon. Oh we have for an hour.

01:43:48
Speaker 8: Okay, Hi, this is Sherman's mom is saying. Me and I have a little bit of a Valentine's horror story.

01:44:00
Speaker 10: And Sherman was four years old. I gave him a big cardboard heart full of Reesi's peanut butter cups. I watched him had it in the kitchen island while he was at preschool. I could not be trusted. I ate all his reciss peanut butter cups and I had to refill it and did it again, refilled it, did it again. On the third time. He just started bawling, crying, and I was like, okay, I'm gonna either have to switch to some kind of candy I don't like, or I'm gonna have to give up sugar and quit traumatizing my child. So I literally did not eat sugar for ten solid years after the Reese's peanut butter incident.

01:44:40
Speaker 2: Yo, that is hilarious.

01:44:42
Speaker 3: And she, like full on wood sent me down each time and be like, honey, I love you so much and I'm so sorry, but I ate all your candy. But I got you another chocolate heart. And I was like, that's okay, I love you, mom. But she did it three times. At that point, I was like, what's goodhead, Just get your own hearted candy. What are you doing? And you're four? I was four. She's a little sir.

01:45:10
Speaker 1: Sure, I'm sitting on the chair, sweetheart. I love you so very much, but I hate your candy.

01:45:19
Speaker 3: I did it again. Dag navit, I did it again. She doesn't even say dagnab it.

01:45:25
Speaker 1: But if I happened to be in her spot, somebody else would hate the candy.

01:45:30
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you know what I mean. You can't go down like that three times in a row in front of your kids.

01:45:36
Speaker 3: Do you think the dog ate the candy? Yeah? They had to do it. Oh rooster. He jumped on the island. He got in your candy.

01:45:43
Speaker 9: Stir.

01:45:44
Speaker 3: I caught him. He was standing on the island. I said, bracester and this when you were at school. She ate the candy we had taken to the vet and everything. He's doing good now we had the pumpy stomach. He's in the backyard. You gotta play with him. Yeah, he go play.

01:45:58
Speaker 2: He but he hates your candy.

01:46:01
Speaker 3: I sitting rude down and be like, I eat your candy three times in a row. Yeah, but ten years of sobriety chocolate. Oh it's sugar. Shout out, shout out, miss Amy on the chocolate. Are you Is he gonna drive? I was just about to suggest that, yes you did you do it? Yeah, he's got an interview, Jared, We love you, Thank you with bussing right, Okay, V Days at Chuck E Cheese V Day and Chuck E Cheese.

01:46:31
Speaker 6: Hello, I'm calling in for the Valentine's Day episode. I heard you guys wanted some good Valentine's Day stories. And I know I'm not a dad, but I'm calling on behalf of my husband because he'd be too embarrassed to share this story. My name is Alexis Juleberry. I live in the Greater Nashville area and my husband is not from here. My birthday is two days before Valentine's Day, so it always gets clumped together, which is okay. But my husband, being the best guy he is, the year we got together, he wanted to make sure that my birthday of Valentine's Day was separate from one another. However, he is not used to Nashville. He never experienced Nashville Valentine's Day. He had only been here for like six months before we went on this date. So I asked him two weeks leading up, are you sure you have a reservation for Valentine's Day? Everywhere is going to be booked late.

01:47:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got it.

01:47:31
Speaker 6: Don't worry about it. I've got you. We're going to have a great time. He rented us a hotel room. We had a whole day planned. Yeah, it's a great day. We get all dressed up, we go out, have coffee, everything like that, and when we get to the restaurant, I can tell it's booked, booked out, and we're like all excited. We get in there. He didn't make a reservation for any restaurants I had been there, and so when we realized you didn't make any reservations, I realized it pretty quick. I was very, very mad, as you could imagine. So he took me to Sonic and we ate a chili cheese hot dog, and then we went into Chuck E Cheese and we won a bunch of tickets, and then we gave them to all the parents who were spending their Valentine's Day at Chuck.

01:48:23
Speaker 3: E Cheese just like us.

01:48:24
Speaker 6: And now here we are five years later, married, two kids, live in our best life, ready to enjoy another Valentine's Day, probably involving chili cheese hot dogs. So we hope you have a great Valentine's Day. Thanks for listening.

01:48:43
Speaker 3: Bro. The amount of swagger and poise that you have to have as you walk up to a Juice to the Gills restaurant that you know there's no way you're getting a table, There's not a chance in hell. And he was probably walking in with the biggest smile.

01:49:05
Speaker 1: I wonder if in his mind he just thought he'd be able to walk in and get that, you know what I mean. If she's reminding him and telling him I get you might get it. I've been in the spots where it's like the week of and then you realize, oh, everything's booked out.

01:49:17
Speaker 3: It's a different ball game out here in Nashville. Really any city, but in Nashville is like wild. It's like a month out. You gotta right, you gotta do it right right. It is nuts. And I'm wondering if in his mind, you know what I mean, like if you didn't book anything, if he had fear walking in that restaurant, That's what I'm saying, Like the amount of the confidence that you just had to fake. Yeah, I'm like, yeah, we'll get in, they'll get a table, and you see it and it's just bad. And you've already been talking about the restaurant. I love that place. Oh my gosh, you got a reservation that yeah, honey, the guy am what you think? We're gonna go get Julie cheese dogs and Sonic and.

01:49:59
Speaker 1: You know, Miss empty six's in there giving him an earful Ain't that just have the poise to say? What about Sonic?

01:50:09
Speaker 3: That was the chunky cheese? I can I can see it. I can see I can see the chunky cheese move. You know, all right, how do we make that's a sick Yeah. Yeah, yeah, he's a good one because he didn't quit. He could. That could have ended in a fight, and.

01:50:32
Speaker 2: That could have still ended in a fight, but he.

01:50:34
Speaker 3: Was like, no, no, we're going to Sonic.

01:50:38
Speaker 2: Pull on up, give this couple of chili cheese dogs.

01:50:41
Speaker 3: Hit the red button. Yeah. He was walking from the car like looking in the restaurant window. Let's too top, what the table over there? We get that one. And it's funny because when I called him, I was like, make sure they get the table.

01:50:54
Speaker 1: In the corner, baby, sweet know I got a place for us. Called the owner. They said, nobody's gonna be there. It's all ours. It is all ours, making that left turn into a sonic.

Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.

01:54:45
Speaker 2: I know what you're saying.

01:54:47

Speaker 5: Good one was going Clay from Cincinnati here, saw your post about Valentine's Day. Got a bad gift story for you guys. Just want to say thank you. First off, got a four month old here, found the podcast a couple months before he got here, So you guys have helped me through a ton. Me and my fiance have been together since high school. I was fourteen at the time. I had bought a Teddy Bear for her for Valentine's Day. Well kind of, that's what she thought. I bought it for the girl I was talking to before and never gave it to her. So I was just sitting there in the closet. So my fourteen year old brain, I thought, this is a great idea.

02:01:40
Speaker 3: Let's give it to her.

02:01:42
Speaker 5: She gets it, loves it. A couple of years down the road she finds out it wasn't originally for her. Good, you know, let's bail out of that one. Still to this day I hear about it. Twenty or twenty three now whoops.

02:01:58
Speaker 3: So yeah, been.

02:01:59
Speaker 5: Together since twenty seventeen, going on nine years, married next year. A little four month old Geordie as happy as could be, sitting here, smiling at me.

02:02:08
Speaker 3: Talking to you guys. Now, thanks for all you guys do Bye. I love that you say. It was twenty fourteen when it happened, fourteen.

02:02:18
Speaker 2: When it happened fourteen, But they're still together at twenty three.

02:02:20
Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh man, that is a fourteen year old male mind at work right there. Oh, yeah, something left in the closet. Why go buy a new one. Yeah, just use this what I got the information. Oh dude, they gotta go, they gotta go. I I in a similar vein. I guess I was talking to someone at the time. We weren't openly dating to the world at the time, and she received flowers and was like, oh my gosh, like, thank you so much for these sladers. I was I didn't send them, and a part of me was like I need to claim it, but I was like, I didn't send those, and it was it was another shooter. It was very uh it was interesting. I was like, you just.

02:03:09
Speaker 2: Respond, I'm glad you're so happy.

02:03:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, yeah, I could have. I could have gone with the Owen Wilson. You know. I actually sent those flowers on behalf of me, so think Owen Wilson. But yeah, dude, it was That's always awkward.

02:03:23
Speaker 2: Not a good spot to be. Yeah.

02:03:25
Speaker 3: Torona is one of our first I think, like our first Valentine, so where the relationship wasn't defined. Uhh.

02:03:32
Speaker 1: But she was at the house and she got me something, and I'm like, I didn't get her anything. So I didn't really know what to do. She didn't make it seem like it was a big deal. Yeah, but it eventually felt like a big deal. And I kind of didn't know. That's that's almost that's.

02:03:47
Speaker 3: A slippery slope. That's the same thing, because it's like I'm sitting there going, damn, I should have got flowers. I guess, like, what's first off, what's going on there? Secondly, I should have done that, and they Oh, Villa and I's first Valentine's was so botched. It was. It was the worst Valentine's Day of all time. I know, we have like a ton of voicemails to get through, but I watched my very first Valentines with Jill. I still wouldn't consider that first Valentine's or Valentine's the.

02:04:15
Speaker 2: One where she got you a gift, because clearly I wasn't. Yeah, hey, you know, that's a moment.

02:04:22

02:05:05
Speaker 2: We've done it a couple of times already on this sude.

02:05:37
Speaker 9: Hey, guys will sharn. Boys in the back. Just wanted to say, what's up. My name is Mason. I just had a beat or my wife and I just had a baby boy one month ago today on the fifth, and I can't describe how crazy it feels. But I wanted to give a huge Valentine's Day shout out to my wonderful wife and the mother of our child to say, hey, you did such an amazing job. I can't believe we're already one month in and our baby is so lucky to have you. So happy Valentine's Day, I love you so much, fellas. Thank you for all you do, keeping me grinding through the trenches of late nights and helping out as best as I can. I'm just getting back from my first work trip away from the baby. I'll get back later this afternoon. Good, but can't describe the feeling and how excited I am to get home. But I just wanted to give that shout out to her milk team six.

02:06:39
Speaker 3: You guys are the best. Love you fellas, Love you too, Love you too. And what a move by him of Oh, he was off at a work trip and I've been all alone here in da Dad and honey, check out this pot.

02:06:51

02:06:57
Speaker 3: Well stern boys and one of these hey guys, well, I guess he didn't say, didn't say, he didn't say? Once he shows her the shout out. These guys babies what one month old? Uh huh, that's gonna be nice and easy.

02:07:17
Speaker 2: That's uh so one month old?

02:07:18
Speaker 8: Er?

02:07:18
Speaker 2: About what four or five weeks in?

02:07:20
Speaker 3: Yeah? And what's that that six week mark? There's something there that is is it like.

02:07:25
Speaker 1: Six weeks or eight weeks where they come off the pup list? It's six eight physically unable to perform?

02:07:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it depends. It depends on how it seems like she's still on the pup list. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it depends how the baby was delivered, I believe, because if it's a cesarean section like the it's a little different then, like you want to say, Charle was like eight weeks, okay, I think it was like six for Jill. That what C stands for. I believe.

02:07:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, man, say that word again, cesarean.

02:08:01
Speaker 3: It's a mesopota.

02:08:02

02:11:23
Speaker 13: I just want to wish a huge happy Valentine's Day to my wife Beck. Just want to say, you know when you know you found the one we met summer of twenty thirteen and entered buds right away. I'm talking this empty Sicico even laid a bit upside down for a minute to make sure the amo hit the target. Probably should have kept that one classified though. We've been in the trenches for eleven years now, battling with our two soldiers eleven and two and a half years old, and couldn't be happier. Every day I sit back and think, how do I get so lucky? From buds in twenty thirteen to living in Australia for our first birth aka D Day, to getting the entire family back to the States, to our second D day a couple of years ago. This woman is my world and such a gangster and I hope she knows it much. Loved boys, and keep fighting the good fight for us.

Speaker 14: My wife and I are also high school sweethearts, so this year will be our twelfth Valentine's Day together. So last year was wildly different experience from the previous ones. But you know, this day will never exactly be the same again, but I'm glad that it happened this way.

02:14:39
Speaker 3: Elliott is the best of both of.

02:14:41
Speaker 14: Us, so him coming on Valentine's Day is just a perfect representation of that. I wouldn't change the thing about that if I had the chance to. Oh and sure, I'm afraid I didn't get my couch badge either.

Jill's friend Lauren, that's here in town, their high school sweethearts, her husband and her I love hearing stories like that, dude, cause it is kind of funny just how people, you know, dads and moms out there, they're not to be here forever. You're being so dramatic about it. And the fact that like people find love at that age or like emotionally mature enough to be like, no, I want to be with this person.

So you get nervous to be so opt like to be so to have so much optimism, and then you're like, man, do I need to temper my expectations because if it doesn't happen and it crushes us like am I you know? Is my emotional it's my emotional level like ready for that? And then it's like, oh man, why not be excited about this? It is an exciting time in alive. It's such like a mental pretzel going through like a fertility journey. If it doesn't happen for you naturally, but good luck, good luck to both you, and good luck to you and Klen go big red Valentine's.

02:19:09
Speaker 3: Valentine's Day, I have one from Sean Bingham. How's it going? Boys? Back when my wife and I first started dating in college, we were going to go out to eat, but decided to go to Taco Bell instead because we were in a hurry with classes. Wife was not happy when we went to Taco Bell. It took a while to build my brownie points back up. Fast forward a year and we decided we are going to go somewhere nice to eat. Of course, being in college, red Lobster was considered nice. Lol. In Olive Garden, Hey, come on, come on, I can mess with both of those. I'll back come on. Went to Red Lobster. It was snowing, freezing cold outside, and I was told there is a two hour wait because being an idiot, I didn't make a reservation. We were waiting by the door, freezing when, being the chatty I am started talking with the other couple about the most random things, trying to pass the time by and trying to keep our sanity. We ended up getting a table and went all out appetizers, drinks, most expensive things on the menu. When it came time to get our bill, our waitress came up and said our bill was paid for. We instantly started going what this only happens in movies? Looked around the waiting room and the couple we talked with while we were waiting raised their glasses and gave us a toast. What a way to celebrate Valentine's Day after going to Taco Bell the year before moved on up in the world. Good reminder to pay it forward and bless those around you. Cheers and happy Valentine's Day. PT six loved the podcast and it is a favorite of mine to listen to you while doing chores around the house to keep Milk Team six happy. Thanks for all the tips and laughter over the last couple of months. Sean, You're doing the Sean, You're doing the dishes right now to keep that empty six happy. And I hope you got a little smile on your face because you have Valentine's Day legend.

02:21:02
Speaker 1: Legend love that story, got their dinner paid for.

02:21:05
Speaker 3: That's sick. A couple that they were talking with, that's sick. I've only had that happen one time, and it was my aunt Shannon was in the restaurant. I did not know that. Shout out my aunt Shannon, and I was I mean, Jill and I both were like, what the hell, Like why what? And I saw, you know, I just scanned the room and I saw her looking over and smiling at me, and I was like, let's raise the glass, let's go. You're unreal.

02:21:29
Speaker 2: I got one here from Chris McKee.

02:21:31
Speaker 3: This is Chris.

02:21:32
Speaker 2: This is Chris McKee.

02:21:34
Speaker 3: Get ready he bringing a heat.

02:21:35
Speaker 1: Hello, guys. I love the podcast so much. It has truly become can't miss listening to me and sometimes with my son when I'm at work or in the car with him. Keep up the amazing work. My funny story is from Valentine's twenty twenty four.

02:21:50
Speaker 3: It was a.

02:21:50
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day during the middle of the week, so me my son or am I soon to be wife had agreed that we would do Valentine's on the weekend after she was and still is, a barber in cool Spring.

02:22:03
Speaker 2: Shameless plug.

02:22:04
Speaker 3: Come on.

02:22:04
Speaker 2: I met her when she was done with work and I got some energy drinks to charge up for the evening. Yeah, you did buddy them gas station bills too.

02:22:15
Speaker 1: We were turning out of the parking lot to go to the gas station to fill up her car.

02:22:21
Speaker 2: On the parkway.

02:22:22
Speaker 3: Corothers car others, Corrothers.

02:22:26
Speaker 2: Let's go with Corrothers. Corrothers.

02:22:27
Speaker 1: Parkway has a median, so she pulls into the center to get across the street. I look up and see her brake lights come off and start my turn to pull out. Someone at the last second cuts her off. In this particular brain of energy drink I had started to rattle around in the cup holder. I proceeded to rear in my wife's car. No kicker here is the day after is the day after New Year's we found out that we were expecting our second child, our son. We pull across the street to the gas station. Her car was smashed and so was mine. Good We call the police to report the incident. The first copp responds, and he has a great sense of humor. He asked what happened and proceeded to jokingly pull out the handcuffs. My first lesson as a husband to be we leave my car and take her car to dinner. She was not gonna be denied her steak and dessert.

02:23:20
Speaker 3: Boys.

02:23:20
Speaker 1: Two years later, I'm still embarrassed by it, but it was a funny and expensive lesson, even in the chaos. Go get the steak and go love on your spouse.

02:23:30
Speaker 3: No love on her. Hey, shout out, cool springs, PD. Dude, that's all time. Yeah, he hit you? What happened?

02:23:37
Speaker 1: All right, buddy, turn around, spread him and this is your husb.

02:23:42
Speaker 3: Play the taser a little bit. Oh my god, dude, that's hilarious. Wesley Murray said. Fellas we all know, Valentine's Day comes with one non negotiable take care of the wife. That standard, that's standard issue. But if you're a girl, dad, you've got double booty, triple duty in your case. Valentine's Day isn't just about romance. It's about raising the bar for every future boyfriend, fiance, and husband who's gonna have to measure up one day. That's why every year I take my daughter on her own Valentine's Day Day. Nothing fancy, nothing stressful, just something that week where it's all about her. We get dressed up, I bring her flowers and a little gift, and we head to her favorite place to eat, and of course we finished wrong with the cookie from the mall, because that's our thing. These little traditions matter. My daughter is the light of my life, and I want her to grow up knowing exactly how she deserves to be treated, with respect, effort and genuine care. And yeah, I prayed that one day she finds a man who's twice as good to her as I am, which means that poor guy has some work to do.

She doesn't care for Valentine's Day, never has, but every year I always do something special for her just because well, this year she will be twenty eight weeks pregnant at Valentine's Day, and as y'all refer to it, getting close to being in the trenches. I just need some help on what to do this year that won't h that won't send her into an irritated mood, and where my chewing isn't too loud or breathing isn't too bothersome. She hates all food except what she's craving at that exact moment. Any ideas would be great, Thank you, And the show is great.

02:26:20
Speaker 3: Thomas bro Thomas is so dialed in right now, He's dialed in right now. Just the added detail, the crunching the fish yeah, breathing a little too loud. I'm sorry, I exist. I forgot. I'm so sorry about that, honey, I'll stop existing.

02:26:37
Speaker 1: What game would you give him? I'm thinking just icebreaker. You just get her favorite meal. If she doesn't want to go out, that's fine. She's twenty eight weeks pregnant. Maybe she truly doesn't want to. Like it'd be, you'd be doing too much. Yeah, I don't blame I don't blame it at all. But you still want to do something special. So whatever it is, whether it's flowers or favorite meal, whatever it is, maybe you bring it home and you break the ice by like the irritations going on. Yeah, I got this meal for you. I set up your own little area. All of it you're gonna enjoy. I'm gonna sit over here in the corner. Why are you sitting over the course? So I don't want to herritate you. I don't want to piss you off. This day is all about you.

Twenty eight we explaining it pregnant with our first child? Baby girl, baby boy, baby girl. Let's say damn if it is a girl, or if you don't know. Could get a little Valentine's Day outfit boy or girl at Target, probably for super cheap. They won't be sold out on those, and get it a year sized like get it for you know whatever that would what would it's like, nine to twelve would probably be a safe range. Get a little nine to twelve size Valentine's thing and be like for a little baby next year, you get to put some fun with that little coupon book. Dude. The coupon book is that's a dad hack for anniversary birthday, blah blah blah.

02:28:41

02:29:53
Speaker 2: Shockwave at play one requested.

02:29:57
Speaker 3: I'll do it right then and there. Oh God, Zachary Perne Ronnie Boys. A few years back, I found myself in the trenches of doom by screwing up Valentine's Day. I was in a softball league and always were never good. But this year we made it to the ship and of course the game was on V Day. Wife's wife. He was quote unquote cool with it and even came to support, but afterward words of us not even winning. I took the wifey to arby Ooh, dude, Arby's. Oh, Zachary, I gotta stop. I gotta stop right there, dude. We could have at least done sonic chili chilli geez, we got the meats. Arpys is wild, Arby's is wild. I took the wife to Arby's and the and the manager looks at me and goes, this is your romantic choice. Even the managers on it, like, buddy, Arby's, the fuck are you doing it here? She's just around the dinner time. Somebody walks up, the fuck are you guys doing it here?

02:31:06
Speaker 10: Dude?

02:31:06
Speaker 3: It's February fourteenth, Like literally, what are you doing here. We shouldn't be people like you that can't allow us to be closed. To tell my manager all week, we need to be closed on Valentine's saying nobody's coming through. Doug eats Arby's, Nobody's coming, and then Zachary Borne comes walking. What Doug, fuck you? What do you want? Go ahead? Oh slice beeed brisket. Great choice, Doug. The apple turnover is on me for the beautiful lady followed up the manager. Well done manager. To this day, I will never not hear about it from her, her friends and her family. Husband hacked. Don't go to Arby's on the time's day. That's a great dad act. Safe to say your boy didn't get lucky that day. That's Zachary yell.

02:31:57
Speaker 1: Boys want some game, man, don't take your girl to Arby's all Valentine's Day.

02:32:04
Speaker 3: That's free game. That's maybe the best advice has ever come from this show. Truly, if if we could teach the public anything, just Arby's probably isn't. And dads need to hear that. Us men, we do need to hear. We need to be reminded of stuff.

02:32:21
Speaker 1: Like that because you gotta save the next generation. You do those mistakes feed that idea.

02:32:27
Speaker 3: And sometimes you'll have an egg that's a bad idea, that's go to Arby's on Valancie say, don't feed that ogg.

02:32:35
Speaker 1: You gotta crack that egg. You gotta crack that egg. Let it spoil so bad egg. People are laughing at you for a reason. And those people laughing are right.

02:32:47
Speaker 3: Bro Arb. Like even seeing the sign in my head, like on Valentine's Day, like driving up and seeing that hat with Arby's written over it just makes me laugh. Dude, poor we loves. I know we've been going for a really long time.

02:33:03
Speaker 2: Good sold, good sod, good sold.

02:33:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, what were you about to do? I have a Dan Gable quote. Oh, if we got to hit the non negotiables, I'll go ahead this one. I switched it up a little bit. Will I went and listened to Dan Gables episode on the Joe Rogan experienced Good Sold back in twenty twenty four, and he had a great quote here, and I was thinking of, like how something that could be applied to kids. He said, you know, sometimes you give a kid a break or two and it comes back to hunt. Yeah. It became kind of a ritual for me to go leave home about eleven thirty every night and go to downtown Iowa City to walk into bars to see where some of the guys were at, try and get them home. And you know, that probably wasn't the right way to go about things. I should have had them where I didn't have to do that. But you know, you went a lot and you start the you can cut corners. That's honestly how I lost my last match, which is a whole other story. Dan Gable, Joe broken experience. Don't cut corners, don't cut too much, slacker, else you'll be in Iowa City picking up your wrestlers.

02:34:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, picking up your kids.

02:34:18
Speaker 10: Yeah.

02:34:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're trying to rebel too hard on them.

02:34:25
Speaker 2: I got a dan Gable one right here.

02:34:28
Speaker 3: I shoot, I score, he shoots, I score, Boom, dan Gabe. Dan Gable said that, Now I got a bunch.

02:34:41
Speaker 15: I think sure read that last week, but Dan Gable said it. He said that, he did say that quote. Yeah it's a good one.

02:34:57
Speaker 2: Let's find another one.

02:34:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we get to get another one. Man.

02:35:01
Speaker 1: Always remember the pain of defeat. Yeah, and never let it happen again.

02:35:09
Speaker 3: Take the trash out, man, Thank you for listening. Man, the pain of defeat, and never let it happen again again. Remember what it felt like to walk into that Arby's and that manager look at you and go, you fucking for real right now? Guy?

02:35:27
Speaker 1: The pain my man endured when Shockwave was off the table because he took her to a nice steakhouse and she got sick. Remember that pain, and never make that mistake, nor let it ever happen again.

02:35:43
Speaker 3: Remember that pain when you leaned over to ask about shot Wave and she said, not a chance, because my stomach is about to explode with Arby's curly fries because that's about the only thing on the menu were ordering. And then refer back to the quote that's been double quote in the last two weeks. When she does you know, and she shoots her shot, you score. But then when you shoot your shot, you score, Dan Gable.

02:36:14
Speaker 2: Everyone, Happy Valentine's Day.

02:36:17
Speaker 3: Happy Valentine's Day. Drop a heart would be too easy, some flowers. Yeah, actually, drop a big old steak for Arby's. Drop a big old steak emoji.
