Will Compton’s STRUGGLE With Morning Routines & Date Nights | For The Dads

Bussin' With The Boys

In this episode of For The Dads with Will Compton, hosts Will and Sherm dive into the importance of date nights, weekend plans (shoutout Baylor/Auburn), and swap kids’ entertainment recommendations—all while keeping it real with laughs, stories, and raw dad energy.

The episode kicks off with PT6 community shoutouts that bring both heart and humor, including:

  • The nickname Willy One Shelf catching fire amongst the PT6ers.

  • Sherm’s battle with gravity as he shows off the new For The Dads Oxford Pennant (and teases new merch).

  • The introduction of the podcast’s newest team member.

Sherm also gets vulnerable about dad-loss as his wife heads out of town for the week, leaving him solo at home. (We’re all devastated for him, trust us).

Other highlights include:

  • A can’t-miss call-in from a general contractor who just can’t catch a break.

  • Sherm closing the show with a gut-wrenching Keanu Reeves monologue that leaves the boys in tears.

👉 If you’re looking for dad podcast humor, parenting real talk, and a strong community vibe, this episode of For The Dads is a must-listen.

For The Dads is for every guy who needs a place to talk, vent, and laugh about all the insane, hilarious, and chaotic sh** (sometimes literal) that comes with being a dad. 

 

Hosted by Will Compton–NFL Vet, creator of Bussin' With the Boys, and proud dad of two. This show isn’t about expert advice and how fatherhood is the greatest thing on earth—it’s about embracing the love and suck of parenthood every day. From balancing work and family to battling the mental load, fears, and the moments that wreck you in the best way, we dive into it all with honesty, vulnerability, and a sense of humor. Cause at the end of the day... us dads have no idea what we're doing.

 

Alongside Will is his producer Sherman Young, a soon-to-be dad who’s currently enjoying his last few months of uninterrupted sleep and freedom. Together, they’ll break down everything that can go right and wrong (...usually wrong) when you bring tiny humans into this world.

 

Expect funny parenting stories, laughs, call-ins, advice, weekly themes, and the kind of conversations you’d have over a cold beer in the garage. Whether you’re raising teens or still Googling “how to install a car seat”, For the Dads is the ultimate podcast for dads who are in it, about to be in it, or just trying to do their best while screwing it up along the way.

Speaker 1: Might be coming soon? That's correct? Do we want to tease it right now? Listen? You know, you know Willie one shelf. I'm trying to catch up right now? What exactly are we teasing with the good? It fires me up. I say go ahead and tease it. You're teasing me.

00:04:04
Speaker 2: I'll act it out as he describes it, and then we'll see if you can guess it.

00:04:09
Speaker 1: Okay, if you're if you're listening, on audio. This would be a great time to tune into YouTube. I would turn it up. I would turn it up. I'm currently described is bur class bur class burp class dude, I am, I'm solid it Like we'll catchphrase that's that you can use words. But like charades, if you get a little family game night going on, you are you are competitorids.

00:04:37
Speaker 2: We did that one Friday stream. We we used to the back of the bus Friday.

00:04:41
Speaker 1: We did what was a salad bowl.

00:04:43
Speaker 2: Yes, which is like a foremost charades for anybody that's heard of salad ball. You were cooking. Who was your teammate? Oh no, you were like all time quarterback, like you were on everybody's team.

00:04:55
Speaker 1: You were a beast as well, shureham.

00:04:56
Speaker 2: I come on, come on, I'm good at act not as good as guessing.

00:05:01
Speaker 1: If you're gonna be a dad and you still got the competitive nature in you, you have to be good at at game nights. Yeah. I think it's a prerequisite.

00:05:09
Speaker 2: Were you all doing game nights when you were like a kid or was that a later in life thing.

00:05:15
Speaker 1: Game nights like family game nights? Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, we would do We would do like you know, me and the boys. We'd be playing Pokemon, Monopoly. You know, you'd be playing Clue, Stratigo, Guess who, God, guess who? Was so electric Checkers. There's this little race card game that we would play. It was phenomenal. What what type of No, I forget what it is, but it's kind of like a role. It's kind of like a you know, spin the wheel, dice roll oh, spinning the wheel? Was it called life? Life?

00:05:46
Speaker 2: Did you ever have the race tracks with the gun?

00:05:49
Speaker 1: Of like it?

00:05:50
Speaker 2: The gun basically made the cargo fast whenever you pulled the trigger, and it's two v two Like No, it's kind of like Hot Wheels, but like you basically have to gauge the speed on the straightaways and like release the speed when your car goes into the turn because if you hold the trigger down on the turn.

00:06:11
Speaker 1: You're gonna be banging up against the walls. I was a hot wheels guy, Like you'd have the ones, but I didn't like where it'd be like automatic to where they're doing the loops and going to around the track. I wanted like side by side, you let the cars go down the hill or whatever the track is, and I would take all my cars and we wrestled growing up, so I was I loved brackets for whatever reason, I love tournaments, so I would like stack and see all of these cars and just do a massive tournament just by myself. The build out headlines and storylines in my head.

00:06:44
Speaker 2: This might be the worst advice I ever give you as a fellow dad, But there are people on TikTok Live, absolute hot wheel sickos that do exactly what you're describing right now, and they do tournament brackets. They do it on TikTok Live. And I have fallen down that rabbit hole so many times.

00:07:06
Speaker 1: Got a favorite car.

00:07:07
Speaker 2: They exactly keep the score and it's like as they should. Batmobile has twenty wins. Dude, who's the speed racer? Speed Racer car had like eight wins.

00:07:19
Speaker 1: I love that. Oh it's electric. But the parents would always be playing playing like you know, like Rummy or some shit. They'd have like an adult little game, be playing cards and stuff like that. But you know that was like over or what is it called? Phase ten? Is that a styp Does that sound right? Got a new social guy. He got Derek. We got a new social guy. His name is Derek. Say shout out Derek in the chest. Shout out. Derek never played Phase ten.

00:07:44
Speaker 3: But it's in that pile of dad and mom games that I wasn't allowed to touch as a kid. Exactly always right there, exactly ever able to grab onto it.

00:07:51
Speaker 1: And he knew when they were playing. You couldn't bother him, No, not at all.

00:07:54
Speaker 3: And they kept score and they made up the scores every time. I don't know who was winning, but yeah, celebrate like they did it, just kept going with it.

00:08:02
Speaker 2: They just look they look awesome at their table. I had to give a picture.

00:08:05
Speaker 1: Oh you took a photo of it? Yeah, please please put up the picture. That's a great day. Move too. You see a moment happening. You just want to I just want to snap a photo.

00:08:15
Speaker 2: We got Derek's first time on the mic. I wish that we had Chef's first time on the mic, but we got of Chef.

00:08:21
Speaker 1: We could have some new viewers and listeners tuned in. We should probably break down, Penn. It just fell down in the back and it still looks good. It does you like that? It's still look good. I'll get a I'll build a shelf for it. I'll hang a shelf. We got at least I could do really one show.

00:08:42
Speaker 2: We could do that after this recording. I actually have my drill and I have some screws. We could have a really one shell redeem himself.

00:08:50
Speaker 1: What I was gonna say is there could be new viewers tuned in that. You know, I gave him a little bit of what we talked about at the top of the show. But we go over dad losses, things we crack a cold one too, or ups and downs of fatherhood. I already mentioned the hot line. We got dad hacks, we got survival kids, which, by the way, I'm gonna have to lean on some dads for a dad hack myself. So I'm gonna be asking the audience here in a little bit, should should we hit comments? I would love to hit comments, dude, Let's hit comments.

00:09:16
Speaker 2: I'm a little bit frustrated because I meant to go onto Apple Podcasts because I found some comments on Apple podcasts.

00:09:23
Speaker 1: I haven't even dove on that platform yet. That fires me up.

00:09:26
Speaker 2: They're shouting into the ether because like, who needs Apple? But some of the Apple podcast comments are heat. Yeah, I wish I had pulled it.

00:09:34
Speaker 1: Up, but just a I wish that I had pulled it up a.

00:09:37
Speaker 2: Blanket statement shout out PT six sikas that commented on apple pot.

00:09:42
Speaker 1: You love to see too. The PT sixers are getting so confident in who they are that I've been seeing people do like just their own posts shouting out for the dads. Yes, you see that one family photo. They just had their second one. Yeah, bookmarked it so I can pull it up. But they just had their second one. But he's like, if you're not tuned into four the dads, you're missing out. Like all this stuff, like giving those shout outs, I'm telling you, it warms the boys hearts we shared in the group chat.

00:10:08
Speaker 2: We need to start screenshotting the group chat whenever we send stuff to each other. That's like gets us juiced because there are multiple times that we'll send something and be like, I cannot believe this is real, right, like those sikos that created that group chat on Instagram with you and me?

00:10:25
Speaker 1: Yeah, but how do we open up that group chat to any PT six? So the chat is called PT six Sikos, and Shuram's in the loure. Like Shuram is a he'll dive in. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a Reddit lure going on out there. This is a guy who dives in rabbit holes. He's on all the message boards, he's tapped into everything underground, under the table yep. And he sent me a screenshot that on Instagram there was a chat that was made called PT six Siccos and they're just dropping us a bunch of sick AI graphics and photos of the Papa team six Bears, not even trying to get hired. They're doing it for the love of the game. Yeah, what was it? Raccoon of bin Laden their creating like all the some of the moments that we've talked about, and I'm like, how do we open this up to all the cicicos that want to be involved in this? Yes, that would be a better question for you. Maybe that's some Facebook chat or something like. I don't even know that where we could do a Facebook group.

00:11:19
Speaker 4: I brought up Reddit, but I forgot what it was, something about we couldn't do Reddit. We can't do we can't naturally make a reddit. We can't naturally make it. It's some cicicos out there, redditors.

00:11:29
Speaker 1: Why can't we naturally make a reddit?

00:11:31
Speaker 2: It's like a unofficial official law of Reddit. Where like it can't be used for marketing purposes, like we can't go, oh, our.

00:11:41
Speaker 1: Brand can't stand up before the dad's Reddit market.

00:11:44
Speaker 2: Once they get any sniff of Oh, let's secretly have chefs start one and then oh, we'll throw in some topics to get the people talking.

00:11:52
Speaker 1: They'll be like, huh huh. This feels very.

00:11:55
Speaker 4: Like so even if someone, if a cicico out there, makes one, we can't comment that.

00:12:01
Speaker 2: We could interact with it, but we can't help drive it.

00:12:04
Speaker 1: So what you're saying is this is where the PT sixers see an opportunity to just make their Reddit page and they're the ones driving. They're the ones driving it. Like we can't lead it, we can't can we interact with it?

00:12:22
Speaker 2: Willie Winshelf can only plug the A gap so much. We need PT six sickos to begin plugging the A gap now.

00:12:30
Speaker 1: So Will Compton, Yes, can I have a Reddit page and interact? Yeah?

00:12:35
Speaker 2: You have a Reddit profile and and you know somebody is putting pictures and blah blah blah, and you can be.

00:12:41
Speaker 1: Like, dude, what a cicco? Okay? I love people. I know the people out there, like on Reddit, are just like Will has what questions are these days? Like, of course you can make a profile. Yeah, you can make a profile, but that would be fun if we get it. If there's a reddit, there's listen. If the PT six ers the sickos want to make a reddit out there, that could be something we lean on as like another message board. Because I just I mostly rock the YouTube comments and for everybody listening to like, just this is a this is a tip for the PT sixers, for the dad's listeners, little hack, so to speak. We record our episodes right now. We're in the cadence of recording on Fridays, which, by the way, happy Pizza Friday. Happy Pizza Fridays. So episode releases every Wednesday, six am in the morning. We record the episode for the next week on Friday, so there's about a forty eight hour window to where we will gather the information or comments that have been laid out. Only you know, those those couple of days all you have. So if you leave one, you know in the weekend or going into the next week, they they're gonna miss the episode. We would have to circle back to them after the fact. Yeah, So if you're watching and listening right now, and you do if you got to banger out there that you want to be seen or hey, why have they I thought I a nice little comment out there. If you do it in those first forty eight hours, that's your best opportunity because we always record. Yeah, we record on Fridays, and we need.

00:14:09
Speaker 2: To figure out when we're gonna record for next week.

00:14:12
Speaker 1: Because you traveled, I know next week's a big week. Next week is a very exciting week, like football season's kicking off. I saw somebody in the locker room saying too, So we're getting Busting with the Boys on Tuesdays, we got the locker room, and for the dads on Wednesdays, locker or locker room. College football on Wednesdays, locker room, NFL on Thursdays is inside the bus on Thursdays, inside the bus on Thursdays or Fridays. But yeah, the boys are gonna be rolling basically all week long on our programming. So if you're a fan of Busting with the Boys, all of the content we put out, we're gonna be in a pretty strong cadence throughout the entire football season. I'm a little nervous about a pod taking a hit because it'll be football season. Yeah. Need we just we need to beat the sixers to stand strong.

00:14:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Sunday, the Sunday late night late night radio might have to come back.

00:15:01
Speaker 1: What does that mean for for the dads? Like, like, oh us recording on yes? Yeah yeah yeah, so yeah if we switch over recorded. All I'm saying is if you want your stuff to be seen and potentially talked about on our show. We record on Fridays after the you know, the most recent Wednesday release, so you got about forty eight hours if you're trying to get to us. Uh one that I'll start off with Martha byrne E five to one. This is from Milk. This is a Milk Team six operator here. I'd like to issue a bravo Zulu to sum in one shelf for fully indoctrinating my husband onto PT. Six. My favorite is one his it's his turn to change a blowout and all I hear up in the changing room is good.

00:15:44
Speaker 2: I'm so stoked about that comment. But I'm so heartbroken because I had Martha's comment.

00:32:58
Speaker 1: He's just Fuck, that was a day, buddy.

00:33:02
Speaker 2: I gotta get home and then I have a laser level or two. It would have made you look so official just doing the You're always.

00:33:09
Speaker 1: The one, Yeah, You're always the one building and screwing stuff, and I'm just kind of standing back and that's a little uneven. You need a different screwdriver, not to keep handing you different tools.

00:33:19
Speaker 2: All you need in life is a high viz vest a clipboard and just stand twenty feet back from everybody else and just cock your head a little to the side, and you're golden.

00:33:31
Speaker 1: Dude. I saw this. I sent Charlote this this funny video this gal made on Instagram and they're sitting here. They are cheersing, like having a wine, yeah, toasting glass, and then the caption over it, it's from the girl, and her caption over it says, he doesn't know it yet, but we have to put it, uh, put the duvet on on before bed, not that he'll chat my ass more. Please send that to me so I can send it. Okay, Okay, then I'll chat my ass more than when you're getting ready for bed. Yeah, and all of a sudden we gotta swap the sheets out, yeah, or hey, this new duvet cover came in. We gotta put it on, and you're just like, can we just get in bed. You know it's even worse is it's seven thirty ish. You just had the most amazing dinner, you just watch the most amazing movie. You've been horizontal on the couch, and you're like, ooh, I'm.

00:34:23
Speaker 2: A sleepy boy. I'm turning into a sleepy boy. I'm gonna go hit the bathroom back in the bedroom. You're walking to the bathroom and you see the bed with no she it's completely stripped.

00:34:35
Speaker 1: She didn't even warn you. Yeah, And you're just like, but you know it. As you're gonna take a pis and you're kind of thinking how the conversation might go, like while you're peeing, Yes, like, let me get my attitude right, like, let me ask you know what happened?

00:34:49
Speaker 2: And you're thinking, I'm thinking in my head as I'm peeing, I'm like, oh, well it'll probably be you know, hopefully they're dry by now. But then I all of a sudden, I started listening. I really opened my ears.

00:34:59
Speaker 1: Up and I hear the I'm like, they're still drying right now? We're still drying. What gets me I love you, honey, Yeah, yeah, I love you, sweetheart. But what gets me is when what you just explained, like say seven thirty, but let's say it's nine o'clock and you kind of kids are down. You've executed. Yeah, you've executed. You've watched the show, and you've watched one episode because you're both tired, you're both sleepy, and nine nine thirty rolls around and you're like, dude, let's go, let's go get in bed. Let's have the next episode in bed. Whoa, we have a TV in the room. Oh, but it'll be we'll save the episode. However, the picture I'm painting is you're excited, like we're gonna get some really good sleep. Huh. And my nighttime routine pre bed routine is a lot quicker than my wife. She's got all the she does, all the face cleaning stuff, got all the all the different bells and whistles that she goes through in her routine. Her routine takes about twenty minutes. Or I'll brush my teeth, I washed my face, might put a little something on. If I got like a oh little zip popping up. Let me just put this little really, but I'll go lay in bed. I will get in bed underneath the covers, and I'll be laying there just doing some little doom scrolling before the wife gets in, because I mean she comes in, I'm likes get the photo. Do now, let's see weekend, let's see. So you're just a demon at all time? Not at all times, depends on the situation. But if we're in the fourth quarter, we got a two minute drill coming. But she'll send I'm and be like, hey, do you might switch in the sheets out before we get bet. I'm in bed, so what are we doing? We have sheets? It's been what four days? I like about that party. Usually we go I forget how long we go. I don't even know how long we go. But that's what Chap's my ass is. When you're in bed, Hey, hey, Sweeter, we gotta change your sheets? Jill? Why do we gotta change them? You see that I'm underneath. You're literally in bad.

00:37:00
Speaker 2: Jill and Charrow have had some interaction by a very small amount, and it scares me those two gang together because every single story that you describe of Charro, you are literally describing Jill.

00:37:14
Speaker 1: We gotta get him on. They are extremely similar. All the boys out there are just like you do that too.

00:37:23
Speaker 2: And I'm nervous now because they're gonna get together. That's the worst thing that could ever happen for us.

00:37:30
Speaker 1: Yeah. Sorry, there's like it's like the missiles and gunfires going off in my head.

00:37:37
Speaker 2: All we have to do is just maintain the like sweet dumb, golden Retriever type personality and frame of like what we are to them, you know what I mean. We really got to lean into that because they're gonna get together and they're gonna be.

00:37:52
Speaker 1: Like Sherman's such an idiot. He freaking does this. He poops his pants sometimes. That's how the girls connect. They just start using idiot stories. I guess will still pisces a bad So. Yeah, they're very similar. They can control the yes, oh god, Yeah, we're gonna tell what we should. Yeah, we should, we should. We got to get the fans together. I I do have one more because I want to get to a question for you, please, San Antonio. Wildlife wife is on the pupp list for two more weeks. Boys, now, the key is to make it last more than thirty seconds.

00:38:34
Speaker 2: Hey, somebody said, congrats Sherman. This was on Twitter. Congrats Sherman for wife coming off the pup list hashag keep it under an hour, but we won't have any problem.

00:38:47
Speaker 1: Yeah. That that that message right there from San Antonio Wildlife. You ain't going past thirty. Just let you know. It's gonna be disappointing. It's gonna be disappointed to a spot to where you're actually gonna tell your wife sorry, but you gotta remind her, like I gotta build this stand in the back up, so we just gotta you.

00:39:05
Speaker 2: Know, honey, I'm sorry, I'm gonna be out of breath.

Speaker 2: I apologize in advance, honestly.

00:40:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go, get out in front of it. Get out in front of it. And I won't deny it at all. I won't deny it it all. I never was like that guy.

00:40:40
Speaker 2: Dude, that's the thing that takes me back to high school.

00:40:42
Speaker 1: Dude.

00:40:43
Speaker 2: I just laughed now remembering those guys in the locker room that when you're like a little freshman, the seniors and juniors are talking.

00:40:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, me and the girlfriend Diddy, you know, probably like six times last night you're like, besides what piking back on that, like is he gonna fall off? Like what is going on right now?

00:42:09
Speaker 1: Good. Mama's gonna be pissed off thinking we need to leave right now. But he wants to say this goddamn game. She's gonna be mad at you. Good? Is that his eighteenth beer? What the hell are we doing? I thought you would grow up eventually. Good. I'm not gonna do that, sweetheart. I'm not gonna do that. I am fired up for scarlett first game, first experience with her. I am so.

00:42:34
Speaker 2: Juiced and I've truly had to fight myself for every single crack of cold one could be looking forward to that game, Like I feel like I've brought in that game up way too much on the show, and so I'm just trying to chill on it. But oh my god, I was talking to my dad. I'm just like so excited. I was talking to her on the phone this morning, like I'm just geeking out for It's gonna be so fun. Her outfit came in the mail. I'll picture of her out there right there.

00:43:01
Speaker 1: That's a crack of cald One too, is just the father son dynamic when son is now dad and you guys are just having conversations about their grandkid.

00:43:11
Speaker 2: And I love it too because it doesn't feel like a whole lot of I told you so. And you probably feel the same way with your dad, of like there's not much like micro managing because he never had a girl and you were all boys.

00:43:25
Speaker 1: Too, right, Yeah, and my dad tried pulling the whole you dropped you off in school that you ain't dropped me off of shit, Yeah, he dropped me off at school on day one. We had a nice we shared a nice laugh, a nice belly laugh. Yeah. But yeah, there's not a lot. I told you. It's just them, Like, you know, when's an opportunity where I can come see the little one exactly. Like my dad just loves hearing scarlets. Yeah, because he never had a girl. And so just like all the little bud Oh oh the bows came in? How many does yeah? Oh yeah, twelve pack? Dad. Oh, we gotta get more bows than that. Yeah, you know, he's juiced. They just and being a grandparent too, just get to spoil them. And again yeah, like I was one of three boys, so there was no girl, and so my dad like you know, seeing ru and talking about how big they're looking out. I need videos, look at much of look at her calves. She's gonna be an athlete, all those types of things. But that's a great kracker Cole. When is the the father son mom daughter father daughter mom's son dynamic when they have when they're talking about the grandkids, that's a good kracker cales one.

00:44:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, And just looking forward to oh my gosh, the animal face paint, Like I want to find all those things at UH in Waco on Friday, like all the little kid activities.

00:44:38
Speaker 1: Knowing like there's been a couple of face paint opportunities for Rue, but she's sketched out by the fate. I can't get her talked into it yet. Bro, have you done it yourself? Have not yet? That's what it's gonna come down to. Get a dude, get a wolf. Oh yeah, paint the entire face, yes, because you're right, that's what it's gonna take. Look at that at I'll tell you transitioning into a dad loss. And this is where I can lean on the parents out there that have kiddos in school, especially in that toddler face. We're in week two of school with Rude right now, and she's she's crushing it. It's been all time, but the mornings before school. I would categorize in just the dad loss because I would love some dad hacks from the audience out there, the parents that are well versed in how to get a good routine going. Because Ruby and three, it's like the toddler they they they want their own independence and freedom. It's like all day long, Hey, put on your shoes, brush your teeth. We gotta brush your hair, wear this outfit, try and talk them into that outfit. Go do this, go do that. They just get told kind of what to what to do, so they're big at saying no a lot. Yeah. And Rue's got a little you know she can you sit there and you gotta go with her. She'll get the hands on the hips. Oh oh, she'll get the hands on the hips talking to you. Oh yeah. You gotta be careful laughing too. You know, you gotta be terrible, like holding in the laughter because like you ain't listening to me right now. Uh huh. Yeah. And the morning routine before school, it's like you're just you're you're liking a constant rush, uh huh, Like sweetheart, I will, I want to play with the ball. I want to play ball with you. I want I want to get you to try to dribble the ball six times. I got. I'm making you breakfast. I'm trying to make your lunch right now. Mama's messing with Scotti. Like we're trying to get you going. We only got so much time before we got to get your shoes on. We gotta get you to school. And it's just like a constant I need you to eat your breakfast. Sweet, you gotta eat your breakfast. I don't like chicken sausage anymore. Well, guess what, Since I know that now that you don't like chicken sausage all of a sudden you used to love it. Once you eat this chicken sausage, I won't ever make it again for you, and then you'll go hungry. Sye, how you like that? Yeah, we'll get you yogurt tomorrow. You've had yogurt three days this week already. I don't like it. Oh my god. Bro.

00:46:55
Speaker 2: The one thing that Reud does that I love is when she adjusts her she uses the back of her hand.

00:47:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never seen that before and I love it constantly. But hey, she and she's kind of like me in a way to wheres It's like, uh again, he's a little bitch made story. But I'm not like like, I don't like getting my hands too like in the mix of like dirtiness. Oh like, I like keep my like if I want, like the when I take a bite, I need my hands clean. I need them wiped off. I can't just continue to go. I always want to wipe my face. I always want to keep everything off, like my face and everything else makes sense. And Rue's very much like particular like that always needs a napkin, Need a napkin. Okay, God damn, I'll get you a napkin. It's not that bad. It's just right here. Just wipe it off or use your shirt or your pants, so Daddy used to do for decades. But yeah, it's so funny when she's like always eds her hair out of her face the back like playing football, Like like if I could, in between every play, I would take my helmet off and just wipe my face. Oh really, Like it's like anytime I feel something like sweat or anything coming down my face, I just want it to be like dry. I come off on the side. I'm always like taking my helmet off all the time. Yeah, as much as possible to like wipe my face off. And I feel like Ruke has it because she's like that with the helmet on buckling for the scooter. It's got to be done a certain way. She's got to have the hair out of the face.

00:48:20
Speaker 2: I hated long hair in sports, and obviously I didn't make it past a high school level. But like, just like high school sports, I had to have a short haircut, any type of even if it's hair right there.

00:48:32
Speaker 1: I just drove me crazy. Yeah I could not. Yeah yeah yeah. But the morning routine, yeah, godda dial in the morning routine. If parents got any tips or hacks out there, dude, this is more just like she's like, I want to sit on the couch and no, you can't sit on the couch. Or what was it this morning? It's like I was making that was the ball situation this morning and I'm like, sweetheart, you gotta eat your breakfast. I need you to eat your breakfast. And she was like, you know, she's I'm bouncing the ball. I'm juggling the ball. I'm doing it three times. Okay, sweetheart, breakfast ain't even ready yet. Good first off, good boy? Yeah yeah yeah, I got you play for a little bit. But when this, when it's ready, I need you to eat this. And then it was Mom was making her a case of DIA chicken cheese, case of dea for lunch. And then she gets up and she's like, you know, does the whole I don't like chicken sauce thing. And she's like I want a case of d and we're like that's for lunch. I want a case that's for lunch, sweetheart, you can't. The case of da is for lunch. You do. The chicken sauce is now, But now that I know you don't like it, I won't make it for you ever again. You used to love it. You loved it as of right now. And then when she gets a case of dia, she takes a bite and she gets off the things. She's like, I'm gonna go get the ball, like I need I need to cool off. She said, I need to cool Yeah, I need to cool off. I'm gonna go get the ball. And I'm like, all right, you get the ball.

So I'm like, you're not going go on to the couch. You're you're eating your breakfast. She's she looks at me, and I start like walking. She's like walking towards the couch. I start walking toward the couch. She starts running toward the couch. I start running toward them, like you're not sitting on the couch. She gets on the couch and I grab her. She starts losing and starts throwing a tantrum because she wants to sit on the couch the ball and it's like, you gotta eat your breakst cause we're gonna have to go here within fifteen minutes.

00:50:20
Speaker 2: Is there still chicken sausage on the chicken sauage're not on the stove, it's on her plate.

00:50:25
Speaker 1: It's ready to go. Ok And she's having a taser. So I got a I'm thinking to myself, Okay, good, good good. We're in it right now. We're in it right now. How do I de escalate this situation? Because I just raced her to the couch and I just grabbed her off the couch, So I got it right here. I take her into the back closet, like go through my room, go through the bathroom, and go back in the clauset, just to remove her from the environment. It's like, I just need we gotta talk about this, sweetheart. I know you want your freedoms. I know Dad and mom gonna tell you what to do all the time. I know you're independent. I love that. I love that about you, And that says She's like coming down from crying, and she's like, you know, just constantly like white perrs here she needs every speck of tear off of her face. But she's listening and like, but with you going to school, we just we need you to teach. I don't mind if you play, play your little ass off, but the moment breakfast is ready and good to go, we gotta eat breakfast. Got oh. We try to switch it up all the time between Eggy's chicken sausage and yogurt because you gotta get your protein. Sweetheart, it's important. And whenever we tell you that it's time to eat breakfast, I just I need you. That's when you got to listen to mom and dad. Dad. You can eat as fast as you want eat it. Eat as fast as you can. They can go back to playing. But whenever it's time to go, and we got to get your shoes on, we got to get you out the door. That's when I need you to listen to us. Do you understand? Okay, go back in set her on this on the thing we accomplish. We're eating the chicken sausage, were eating the chicken sauce.

00:51:43
Speaker 2: That's a great note of you can make it as fast as you want, you control, Like if you feel out of control, you don't want to eat, you can control your meal.

00:51:52
Speaker 1: Time right once you're in it, right right, Because she's like, I don't want to tell me you could eat five bites by now the time you've been sitting here and saying whatever the hell, she's saying, yeah, but we got it. You need that to help you out. I'll uh, I'll stick it for you. And for the dad's been gone, just fell down. Oh sorry, we'll get the one shelf going and we'll.

00:52:13
Speaker 2: Get Willie one shelf going. You know what, but if there's if there's TSD by the way of I thought you were talking about something like recording, like the mics weren't plugged in, and my heart saying I said it's gone. Sank I was like, oh, chef just gave us some two thumbs up. He said we're rolling. As he said that, I started freaking out. I'm so sorry, but the blood literally left my face. Keep going about mourning routine and that that was it.

00:52:41
Speaker 1: The dad the dad loss is learning in this it's it's our first couple of weeks of going to school, so we got that morning routine of in between like, you know, waking up, getting her ready to go, getting her breakfast, everything made. It's just like the communication or if anybody's got some tips or hacks out there to kind of set it up. Yeah, it goes better to where you just get to where you're kind of like arguing with her. You're like, dude, you gotta do this shit. I talk about my boy Nick all the time. He's like, dude, morning routines are a grinder. He actually texted me a matter of fact that he's like, hey, could be good if we get a if we FaceTime in the mornings, they'll let Hudson and Ru see each other and we can kind of like talk through certain things. Maybe they'll like keep them in a good movie. Yeah. I thought that was a great, little, great little nugget taking a quick break from the episode to bring you and talk about Wayfair that before I get into Wayfair. There's something bittersweet about ending the summertime. You're winding down. You had a great summer, you know, Rue she's in school now, so it's always a bittersweet ending to summertime. However, I do love the fall weather. I love getting into a nice fall routine and a couple of things that we like to do is consistent family dinners. And when I'm talking about these things and talking about Wayfair, I want to talk to you about what my wife loved doing and picking out. At Wayfair, we have some new lamps for the kids rooms to get ruin just a different theme. Get her in the spirit of school shopping. Let's get you a couple outfits.

00:54:43
Speaker 2: Dude, shout out your boy Nick because he hooked me up with a dad hack.

00:54:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, would you like to share? Yeah, I would love to share.

00:54:52
Speaker 4: Uh.

00:54:53
Speaker 2: Well, And I had a follow up question on the morning routine though, go ahead, I don't know, Maybe we do that and then I'll do Nick, what numerically time wise does your morning look like?

00:55:04
Speaker 6: Like?

00:55:04
Speaker 1: What time are you waking up? What time like? Can you break it down on that? So on a like on an optimal day, I'm waking up at five forty five, so I can get in the way, or I can get in the garage at six, and I will use from six to seven as like my selfish, this is the time where I will work out in the mornings. Yeah, sweat it out, do whatever I need to do, whether it's Zone two and sau Ona, whether it's strength training. I'll take that six to seven and work out in the mornings so that way I can come in because Charles is getting up around six forty five, mark seven. It kind of depends on what Scotty's going on the monitor, because I don't want to leave Charo hang into she's getting the kids up all by herself. I mean she knocks it in the she'll, she'll, she will rock that method. But as often as I can when I'm home and not traveling, it's I'll try and work out between six and seven so that way I can be I can go into husband and dad mode from seven until we probably leave for school now like eight fifteen, eight twenty, So from seven to that eight fifteen eight to twenty mark, you know, we're getting Scottie up. One of somebody's getting Scotty and getting the bottle and stuff going with Scotti. Other ones going and wake grew up. Kind of depends on the movers and you might walk in She's like, I want mamma, but I found a nice little I find a nice little game in a way to kind of like mess with her. So that way when I go in there and I'm getting reu ready, but we're getting to pull up off so that way she can so she can change in the underwear. We're going to the bathroom. Hey, let's pick out an outfit. She loves dresses. You got to try and talk off a cliff for dresses. You've worn it three days in a row. Let's figure out a different method, and she likes for you to give her a couple options. You'll lay out a couple options, she'll pick one. But as she's picking, she's playing. She's like doing all the things. So it's like keeping them, keeping them on course, getting them ready. I'll go down. I'm usually the breakfast guy, Like I'm always making breakfast. It's like eggs and toast and Greek yogurt and rousey like coconut yogurt. But I'll get all breakfast ready. And then if it's like if it's we're only two weeks in with the with the school stuff, but if it's like a PB and J or something where we have a leftover, I'll get ruse lunch ready, or like this morning, Charal was making a case dea. We'll be in the kitchen getting all that stuff ready while replace Scott he's on the ground, she's rolling around, she's playing, having a good time with that tone. And then it, honestly, it just comes down to executing. Hey, you got to eat your food. Like we don't have all the time in the world. It's like eating the food keeping her from having a tantrum, because she can have a tantrum at any moment. Because again, it's like they want their independence. It's freedom as toddlers, they're always being told what to do. Yeahs, like keeping them on that, getting their shoes on, getting them out the door. Okay, So that's kind of how the morning routine is. I love that that.

00:57:37
Speaker 2: There's like several things that you've brought up so far in the show that I've written down. One is I need to become breakfast guy because I love breakfast, I really do.

00:57:48
Speaker 1: And I've been doing a bad job of.

00:57:50
Speaker 2: Like preparing breakfasts in the world. Sometimes do it, and Jill, if she was here right now, she would go sometimes like never, I'll be like, babe, I've done it before, right the weekends, mainly, Jill does a good job of breakfast when she does it.

00:58:08
Speaker 1: Neither one of us have like taken that role though, but I think I want to take that and own it. It's like as Scarlet gets older and starts like the routine becomes a routine, Charle more often than not will be the one with the outfits and the hair with Rue because again it's like, uh, I can get rue rolling, I'm not the hair stuff is, you know. I can I can get a headband on, I can do a ponytail. I can't do the braids yet. I can't do like the fancy ponytails. We we's got these cute little pigtails in today. But like with Charro doing the kid thing, it's like I will make Charles breakfast. So Charles breakfast being like an egg or two and some toast with butter. Mine's like four eggs and Greek yogurt ruses. It's either Eggy's yogurt or chicken sausage for a protein, and then that's usually your breakfast. Then we'll get it ready for lunch. Throw a little small little cookie in there for a little treat at school, come on, cookie, maybe some kind of a variety of options. But that's kind of like our gig. Okay, it's breakfast. Guy's got it. It's got its perks. It does. And my my mom did a great job.

00:59:19
Speaker 2: My dad would do like breakfast and stuff, but my mom cooked a great breakfast and packed crazy lunches. Dude, I wish I could have. I might need to bring that up for a future episode.

00:59:31
Speaker 1: Just go break down. I need to call her and ask her, like, what was your lunch, Cadence.

00:59:38
Speaker 2: Oh my god, dude, these lunches like my friends, you know how you're like trading like gummies.

00:59:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's there's that.

00:59:44
Speaker 2: But then my friends were like, yo, do your mom make that that pesto turkey bacon club again?

00:59:51
Speaker 1: Yeah? She did?

00:59:52
Speaker 2: Yo, Can I get a bye to that? Like miss Amy kind of she messes around.

00:59:57
Speaker 1: She put her foot in that little sandwich. Yes, dude, she crushed it. I don't think I'll ever live up to that, but it'd be fun to try. Another thing I need to add to the bag now that I'm like talking through this is I need to make Charles Latte ri in the morning. I need to just get her fully set up and prepared. Now that I'm like a little an espresso. Yeah we got a little espresso machine. Yeah yeah, yeah yeah.

01:00:24
Speaker 2: Jill hasn't been doing the caffeine as much because she's pumping still right right. But that's something I could do too. But I can definitely implement that. I also wrote down you said at the very top, You're like you may be playing planning a date night with the wifey, and I was like, oh shit, I haven't done one of those.

01:00:40
Speaker 1: In a minute, I wrote date night with wife It falls to the bag Burnner Bro Like it happens with us us all the time. It's like a few weeks to go by and it's like, hey, we haven't got a breakfast together or we haven't had a date night in a while. Yeah, you need to get like something in the books because it's like that stuff is just it sucks that you have to be intentional about it. Yeah. Like me, I like me being a I love to exercise and work out, and I know if I don't, I'll just get in like it like weighs on me. It like snowballs on me. I'll say I'll work out in the afternoon. I won't work out in the afternoon. Yeah, And even though I got to wake up earlier to do it, It's like this is the most optimal way to go about it because it's time that I can have that is uninterrupted to myself. It's time I'm not sitting in the putting in the middle of the day or late in the morning to where it's taken away from somebody else. It's uh, yeah, those would be the two big keys. Like when you're married with kids, families operating is think about what is your hour where you have to yourself? Yes, because it's important that you have time to yourself because again, if you're not watering that plant at all, that's gonna weigh on you. And if you're gonna be projecting it on your wife, you're gonna be projecting on your kids at work, coming home, all the tired stuff that we all know about. Yeah, and if you if you think about it, it's like, Yo, what time do you have to yourself? And then with marriage, it's like what time are you guys intentionally putting in together? Because the kids stuff takes over. Yeah, it takes over, especially if you let it twenty four to seven and you're all you're it's all thin. Like Charles a grinder, she's a business owner bar the barth Res in Nashville's a She's a worker. She's a working mom, working dad. We got to have our ducks in a row because it's not it's just working, you think to yourself. She's made the comments recently, and I feel it. It's like I feel like I just parent. I feel like I just work and I'm just mom. And I'm like, yes, there are a lot of times I feel like I just work and I'm just dad. You come home, you get to there. You might watch a show or two she's on. In the background. You might be scrolling your phone while the show's on. Then you're like, yeah, let's just go to bed. Or I might go upstairs like I'm gonna get on the game with the boys. She might just sit on the front scroll and then we both just go to bed. Yeah, versus like you know that those moments when it's you're having those nights is where it's like, I'll lay there. I know she's doing it. I know the question will come up and I'm laying there. I'm like, we got to get something in the books? Number one? Am I taking care of myself? If so, it's like all right, if I have that box checked, because if I'm not, it's like, okay, how can I plan out time that's for myself? Will you just have to get your lazy ass up in the morning. Yeah, you have to because that's the only time you're gonna do it. Bro. Yes, so you got to get to bed at a decent hour. I when I'm not goooning with the boys. Yeah, but will you I gotta check that box. And then it's a you know, what do we have on the books? Just with us. Do we have a sitter, do we have childcare? Yeah?

01:03:31
Speaker 2: Dude, and uh like my dad Hack was evening walks right last episode, yeah with Scarlet. Yep, Jill was having a rough day and she I brought her along for the evening walk and I was like, let's walk together.

01:03:48
Speaker 1: Because she was talking. She's like, hey, I have postpartum.

01:03:50
Speaker 2: Body and I just feel like I'm stuck in the house all the time and I just feel lazy and not doing anything. I was like, well, they come on an evening walk because it's fun. And once we're out there, she's talking. I feel like I'm letting everybody down. I'm not talking to my friends enough of my family. Yeah, I'm letting Scarlet down.

01:04:06
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. I said same.

01:04:10
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm letting my coworkers down.

01:04:12
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm letting you down. I'm letting Scarlet down.

01:04:15
Speaker 2: But in that moment, I wish that I had been able to say, like, hey, we're not letting each other down right now, and we're not letting Scarlet down right now, and we're doing something that's like outside and active and like just those small little winds, the small little windows where you are like, you're not treating yourself, but like you're being good to yourself.

01:04:38
Speaker 1: You're doing something that's like fun. We need more of that. Yeah. Yeah, it's like if if I think through it again, it's like the communication. If it doesn't happen, it's snowballs. It's snowballs internally in a way to where waits for a moment of I feel like I'm letting everybody down, and you both feel the same way, and then you're both kind of connecting and coming back because again, everybody's wanting to stay strong for each other until you're not strong anymore. And strength most of the time is just reconnecting and talking through stuff like something that Charlie does a lot that reminds me to do it back, or I'm not thinking about this enough. Is like when Charle just appreciates me for something, or just saying, Yo, this was kick ass when you did this, or hey, I really appreciate you doing X, Y and Z, and I'm like, man, and then I think to myself, I got to do this more for her too, because she is a rock star.

01:05:29
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just a little things like that, Little things like that, and in addition to that, hey, This is like, you know how if you like get the the work right on a math problem, but you wouldn't get the answer right like teacher would sometimes give me.

01:05:44
Speaker 1: You still like a point five.

01:05:47
Speaker 2: Last night, I randomly when I got home, I was like, hey, honey, I just want to let you know.

01:05:53
Speaker 1: When I got to.

01:05:54
Speaker 2: Work yesterday, I was really pissed off for two reasons. One, I remember that I forgot to wash the bottle, which you told me to. I always need to wash the bottle after feeds. And that trash or the diaper pail was so fucking full, and I want you to know that I saw that it was full, and I had every intention to take it out.

01:06:15
Speaker 1: And I was pissed when I got to the office and was like I forgot, I know, bro.

01:06:21
Speaker 2: And even though she was upset that, you know, she was kind of going like, oh, I know I saw, I saw, but the fact that I not beat her to the punch, but like it was like, hey, I just want you to know I did mess up there, and I am trying to be intentional about doing a good job.

01:06:38
Speaker 1: It's still got I got the point five right. At least she knows you have some type of awareness yes, versus her having to say it to you and then you might have some body language. I'm gonna get to it. I know, honey, I've been doing a better job.

01:06:50
Speaker 6: I have.

01:06:51
Speaker 1: I don't know about you. It's like when that diaper Paale gets full, I'm like, man, I kind of don't want to take this. Oh I don't. I don't want to take this diaper bag. I want to take this trash out right now. It's like you sit there, you push that ship down even more. Yes, every time, I okay, yeah, we might have I might have one or two more in there, Like I'll open it.

01:07:10
Speaker 2: I'll go, oh, just wait one second, I'll get that dirty diaper and I'll budge into the hardest ball ever.

01:07:16
Speaker 1: It just five more dipies. Now we good? Yeah. I feel you on the bottle cleaning too. Sometimes I'll take a lazy route, like once the bottle gets done, it's like I'll put the hot water and I'll put the the the bottle cleaner soap in there, and I just like shake it up and then I dump it out and then kind of rinse it out and everything. And Charles like, well, every now and then, Charles like you gotta take it out so you can clean like the the the nipple part deep in, Yeah, the cap and the nipple because it can get some of the stuff can get crowded in those crevices.

01:07:49
Speaker 2: Just from a rint perspective, Jill might be excited to see me implement that.

01:07:54
Speaker 1: Just the rents out.

01:07:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, just it's like a rint out of put a little stoop in there and then shake it. She'd be like, Oh, that's great if I like detach it everything, That's.

01:08:04
Speaker 1: What I do. I feel like with like all like my shaker bottles, it's like, you gotta clean it out. I don't want to sit there and put the brush. I'll just sit there, hot water and soap, shake it up because I'm like, I'm good. I'm the only one drinking on this. I do have.

01:08:15
Speaker 2: That reminded me of a my survival kit. It's an easy survival kit for this week. Dude, do you have a survival kit?

01:08:25
Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, I got one.

01:08:26
Speaker 2: Okay, mine's the doctor So we use the Doctor Brown bottles. Uh what bottles do you use?

01:08:33
Speaker 1: Just wondering, buddy, Doctor Brown too. It's a great really, Yeah, we got one with dinosaurs on it. Mickey Mouse and Mickey Mouse bottle. Well, we need to up our game on that. But that that's rude. So that's a toler one. But yeah with the scotti, yeah, I don't know. It's got the slashes that says how many is in it? Yeah, true, but it could be doctor Brown's.

01:08:52
Speaker 2: Doctor Brown uses the uh or we use the Doctor Brown bottles. They have a formula picture and it's like a picture that like your mom or dad would have brought to a picnic for like lemonade. You know, kind of look where it like sits in your fridge, but it has a pumper on top of it. So you put the powder formula in there, You put the water in there, and then you do this pumper thing that spins as it goes up and down and it mixes it all together and it kills all the bubbles. There's like no bubbles. And if you're like a breast milk and formula type of cat, because like there are some out there that like to mix a match or whatever, you can put the breast milk in there and the formula however you measure it out go like that and then it just sits in your fridge because you can close it and then it's good to sit in your fridge for however long.

01:09:47
Speaker 1: And then when you're making that bottle, dude, you just woo.

01:09:52
Speaker 2: It got me stoked, Dude, I don't even know why. It was like, not the most exciting survival kit thing, but doesn't have to be.

01:10:00
Speaker 1: Yeah it doesn't. It's not sexy, but it is such a hack. A four yard run isn't sexy, but it's what you want.

01:10:09
Speaker 2: And sometimes those four yard runs, like a scatter bow, it can turn into a thirty four yard run.

01:10:14
Speaker 1: Exactly because of how good it is. Yeah, consistency, consistency. Just keep hitting them in the mouth. Yes, keep pushing the pile. Yes, it's not sexy, but it gets the job done because you got a what you gotta take the hits. You gotta take that. My survival kid, have I shout it out Gracie's Corner. I don't believe so, not to my knowledge. Gracie's corner on Spotify. This kid's is stuck. Great songs. Yeah, it's like kids music, great songs, educational vibe, rhythm.

She hits the one legger over the bar, again, and then after she takes the leg off the bar, she she holds it out to the side and then and then turns and then she's like watch this one that end. Then she's like going down the hill and she drops really low and then kicks her leg out her She's got this little kickball and she just wants to bounce it as maintime, like dribbles maytime you can. She's up to six and I'm like, we gotta go to bed, like I gotta go upstairs and get Scottie. Mom's yelling downstairs at me and me and Ru's in the bathroom doing it because we got to stay away from Waffle because the waffles. He's the bouncy ball.

01:21:31
Speaker 2: And I know we say this about every single thing that we recorded Busting at the Boys, but this has felt like it's been a good episode thus far.

01:21:39
Speaker 1: I think doing this podcast is a ton of fun. It is. It really is love talking shop with you. I think you're a stud. I know you're a stud. And the again the communal factor.

01:21:54
Speaker 5: Bro.

01:21:55
Speaker 1: We had a gal that DMed us both on Instagram that was sharing a lot of stuff that was crazy, crazy kind, crazy kind. It's just it's a different feel, you know what I mean. Like it's like you get longer feedback of people opening up to you. It's like a dad hit me up in the DMS and I'm gonna butcher the entire message. But he was ultimately expressing to me, like you can tell he's he's like reflecting on how hard he is with certain the lesson of punishments last week, and how he gets like that because of how he was raised by his dad and mom being type A and just struggling with that and appreciating the podcast and being proud of PT six. But it's just like stuff like that fucking rocks, bro It rocks.

01:22:48
Speaker 2: It's cool that like people are opening up to us and feeling like it's a safe space to be, Like, hey, Will and Sherman share enough about their personal stuff that I feel comfortable with sharing my personal right with them, and it is cool to be like trusted with that. Like that message that that girl wrote to us, it was quite literally two paragraphs and I sat there read the whole thing, and by the end of it, I was like, we are so lucky, dude, which we texted each other a lot our first like two weeks when we started this of like, bro, we're pretty lucky that like everybody's being so nice and stuff and we get to do this. Yeah, but now even more so looking at it, I'm like, we are so lucky, dude, that like we're getting to share this space with people that equally want to like share their thoughts and feelings because people are just passionate about parenthood.

01:23:45
Speaker 1: Everybody cares, man, And it's like we said it in like the first episode, and I know we hit on it every now and then throughout our episodes, but we're all like a few degrees away from each other on how we think and feel and go about all this stuff. We all want to be more intentional, and sometimes you get caught up in just the bubble of your own world when you hear other voices talk about certain things, whether it be on the show or the radio, on TV, whatever it is, and you're just like, I go through that same shit too, Yeah, and maybe I am a little too much in it right now. So I'm hearing another experience and this helps Me's That's how I've always been with my consumption of podcasts and success and growth in fatherhood. Everything that I'm interested in, I hear somebody else talk about it in a way where I'm like, he just broke that down. That's exactly how I feel.

01:24:40
Speaker 2: I wish that you could see Jill and I at the house of like having conversations from conversations that we have right here, or Jill watches the episodes and she'll, you know, we'll just start breaking it down right there. Like I feel like I'm a listener of the pod because I'm so new to fatherhood. Yeah, that there are these little nuggets and stuff that and it's funny, dude, It's like the stuff that you were talking about. I know I said this last week, but the stuff you were talking about in those first four episodes before we had Scarlett, and now I'm like, I'm thinking back to those things. I'm like, damn, he really was right, Like Will is putting game out there and it's fun. Now I was texting your boy Nick. I got Nick's number, by the way, that's a whole other story. I love it that we're texting, but I'm texting Nick. I was like, dude, honestly, like, there's a ton that Oh God, I lost my train of thought.

01:25:35
Speaker 1: I was talking about what I'm new to fatherhood, fatherhood game the first four episodes.

01:25:42
Speaker 2: Now I'm beginning to transition to where I actually feel like I can give game if that makes sense, because you're you're in it right now, and really the game is just talking about your own experience.

01:25:55
Speaker 1: That's all it is. All the shit that's like, is game is horror twenty four to seven? Yeah, it's constantly like good isn't going off in my head all the time? Yeah? It goes off in my head more now, especially when your wife is like, hey, you got a brain. You talk about embracing botherhood. I want you to hang a shelf and you're not saying good and said you're kind of fighting me on it now. Everybody's in the comment though, really, but it's like a weird accountability factor two of of just like, uh fuck, I don't know where I'm going right now. I feel very but do you know what I'm saying?

01:26:29
Speaker 2: Yes, I feel very like challenged and not accountable from the fact that I'm doing it. There will be moments where I'm sitting there and I'm like, bro, just burper for fifteen minutes. Don't burper for five minutes. She's gonna spit up if you do it for five minutes. You're doing a podcast about fatherhood, Like the least.

01:26:48
Speaker 1: You can do. Yeah, is even when you pop on social media and you see people sharing and having their own little good stories or their own hacks or whatever it is, and I just see that one word of like they share so we're in there say this is happening good and I'm just like, it's like, that's a reminder that's game to me. Yeah, you know what I mean. It's not like coming from a position of this is the right game. This is something we're constantly trying to I'm not mastered. We're never gonna master it. No, But all of the accountability within the community, and I wish I could lay in this plane better. The community doesn't even know they're holding us accountable, but they're great reminders when you pop on and we're building this community and brain is building the way it is to where you just see those reminders and it just it helps you. Yes, it helps you. Where Charle laughs about something of She's like, I was wondering if you were going to tell that story or not, especially the one shelf story. She's like, I was curious if you were going to how that was going to go if you told that story. Knowing that I was so you know, like in the I had such a pissy attitude about it.

01:27:53
Speaker 2: It's very similar to skydiving, like being a parent of like there's amount of books that you can read about skydiving that is going to get you ready for that moment of when you're out of the airplane and you see the ground and you're like falling, Like there's no like you can't just be like an expert, right, and we are not experts, and we constantly say we're not experts and we aren't. But like if you go skydiving once, you can at least be like, oh yeah, dude, you're gonna be nervous as hell before you jump out of the plane.

01:28:26
Speaker 1: That's okay, everyone is yeah.

01:28:29
Speaker 2: And for another dad that like, is so nervous going into it. I E me like hearing that in the comments from the PT sixers, it did a suage.

01:28:41
Speaker 1: Is that the correct word?

01:28:43
Speaker 2: It did affect how I felt like. It did help me to be like, oh, okay. Not only is like my boss Will that wants the best for me saying like, dude, you got it. It's okay like being nervous. I mean, do you care blah blah blah. And I'm like, okay, well, we'll just kind of likes me and he's my boss, just saying that. And but then you read in the comments like oh dude, I was sick to my stomach blah blah blah, and like it's totally normal and you're gonna kill it.

01:29:09
Speaker 1: It's like that's all you need. The PT sixers, We're all in it. I don't you know how we got on that, me neither. But I love the convo. Bro, we were looking at pictures of Scarlett. That was my cracker call Cracker cole One. Brought to you by Liquid Ivy come on hydrating and dude, this bomb pop flavor is nuts. I know you had a U you had your dad hack earlier. I have one from YouTube from the YouTube comments that I was gonna share because my dad Hack was more so asking for dad hacks of you know, or maybe just hearing the struggles and we're not alone on not alone on the morning routine. I'm sure it's chaos ra absolutely everybody but dad Hack. And I love this one. This one's from uh Jonathan Vella forty eight fifty four pt. Six here twenty month, twenty month girl and just found out there's an the other one in the oven. Good good, dad Hack. We had TVs that had the same remote and could work together. That could work Wait wait, wait, dad hack, we had TVs that had the same remote and could work the other TV rock one with batteries, one without. To where your kiddo wants to grab the remote and mess with the TV. You give them a remote, a second remote. Oh, one doesn't have batteries or it's to a different TV. Yeah. Also I would give rue the fireplace remote. She'd end up rocking turning the fireplace on. But they always want to mess with the remote. So I thought that was a great dad hack. Have a second remote out there and with the batteries out.

01:30:39
Speaker 2: Because they'll know, they'll get old enough to know eventually that it's like, yeay, this isn't a real remote if you give them a.

01:30:45
Speaker 1: Fake one, and all parents and dads out there is like, oh yeah, that's a no brainer. But again, there's new fathers coming into the equation. There's new fathers joining PT six that are super nerves that probably that makes sense to them, but they're not even thinking about about that. So that's a good, simple day hack to add to your bag, to add to the PT six backpack.

01:31:03
Speaker 2: It doesn't have to like, you do not have to reinvent the wheel for it to be a good dad hack.

01:31:08
Speaker 1: To your exact point, say that again, you do not have to reinvent the wheel for it to be a good dad hack.

01:31:14
Speaker 2: It truly the little my dad hack this week was I found it in my DMS from like three weeks ago, and I just found it and I was like, dude, Jill, and I ran into this last week. I wish I had read this three weeks ago, but it's hey, if Scarlet I saw in the pod Scarlet's been burping up a lot. Try burping her every single ounce during a feed, like stop after she's had an ounce, burp. If you don't get a burp out, it's fine, just put that bottle back in. Second ounce goes down, burb Oh, you got the bubble out that time. Now she's ready for the third ounce. And that's something we're implementing now without that dad hack. But it's like just those little.

01:31:57
Speaker 1: Things, little things, man, little things. She'll get in into our hot line six and one of the dads. You want to be featured on the show. You want some free merch, you call into her hot line, you leave a voicemail. Chef Captain a Seman Team six, he goes through them and then we will feature. It's like I want to say, last week we did one. We're gonna have about three this week.

01:32:18
Speaker 2: Hot line hot line additional shout out though, an additional game to put you guys on is we said it before, We said, hey, if you start the call with like, yo, what up, chef, more likely that you'll probably get it played.

01:32:31
Speaker 1: Now, new guy Derek is on the scene.

01:32:34
Speaker 4: And we'll be helping with the voicemails now, So any Steelers fans out there.

01:32:39
Speaker 1: Oh and he's a Steelers fan. He's a Pittsburgh guy. He's a Pittsburgh He's got pirates out on right now. Pirates, Penguins, Steelers, you name them. He's on Riverhounds too. We got it on the mall. Okay, okay, he's deep. He's deep in the Pittsburgh fandom.

01:32:56
Speaker 2: He's deep in the Lord and he did yeah a little uh do we before we jump into want to let him intro himself like we did with Chef.

01:33:03
Speaker 1: Absolutely great call. It's part of the fan. Now, Yeah, he's part of the fam. What do you want to know? Just give him your name, where you're from, maybe a little background on how you ended up here, why you love the show, why you love the brand.

01:33:19
Speaker 3: Derek Whiton from Pittsburgh, moved down here about five years ago to Nashville.

01:33:23
Speaker 1: Uh.

01:33:24
Speaker 3: Worked in advertising before, and then I had a couple buddies who are transitioning into dad life that sent me the show. They know I was a big comp thing guy. I was a big bussing guy, and so they sent the show. Became obsessed with it recently got engaged. I'm a funkle, very proud of that. I stole a couple for you for the kids. I'll tell you after that was great, Like a couple clips from the show. Works as an uncle too. What you guys are building was like the coolest thing I've ever stumbled onto. It's something that you don't have to be a dad to enjoy. I got my fiance in it. I got my mom watching it at the beach while we're on vacation. She's asking a lot of questions to describe some of the things you're talking about. It's getting a little awkward on the phone.

01:34:00
Speaker 1: Cost Marshall so dumping.

01:34:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there's a couple of you can fast forward through that part. Yeah, I give her the time stamps. But now, man, I'm as yenser as they come. I was talking to chef recent Voles guy, so I'm introing into the Tennessee lifestyle here. But no, dude, this community is great. Everything you guys are saying is awesome. I have been like I laid out these clothes last night to come in today. I feel like it's day zero of school. I held a little sign that says my name is Derek. First day of school.

01:34:30
Speaker 1: Geek to be here. Love everything about the show, but there we are. We got to get that picture of And another thing you mentioned that I know could be a hitter is the uncle stuff. Getting some uncle gear. It's been talked about. Taylor's brought it up, a lot of the guys have brought it up. Yeah, but getting some uncle gear as a funkle.

01:34:51
Speaker 3: The one thing I did is we were sitting there with the my fiance's niece and nephew and the nice was saying something like I want to do this and I I looked at her and I said, how many times do you want to do it? And it was something you would send a previous episode and she goes, one more times good, And I said, all right, let's do it one more time because she was something that was just going. I'm like, we gotta go inside, and she's like, I don't want to, Like you're just Derek. And I was like, well, how many more times would make you happy?

01:35:15
Speaker 1: She's like just one.

01:35:16
Speaker 3: I was like, I'll do it with you. It was like throw a ball against the garage or something. But this show works for that. It works for I was talking to you first day dog dads. I have two proud fairy kids at home, their little dog goes the one set.

01:35:30
Speaker 1: A streaker from two rooms across a hallway.

01:35:32
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say if it was her dog or my dog, a complete stinker across the house and we both walked downstairs and I said good, and my wonderful fiance said what is good about that? And I said, just wait, honey, you'll see the show. You understand. Yeah, I cleaned up the Was it a streak? It was too so the reason I knew was her dog is he he'll take a shit, take two steps, drop a shit, take two steps drop.

01:35:55
Speaker 1: He's as a plopper.

01:35:56
Speaker 3: There was two formal ships and then a streak like a slug rin through the house, just from the kitchen to a side room.

01:36:03
Speaker 1: Good, good, God, Well he's seeming good because we got to embrace this ship literally.

01:36:09
Speaker 2: Literally if that ain't goose by the way, one of my dogs. He's a little you know, wawful.

01:36:15
Speaker 1: You gotta watch her being in English like she'll ship, but there'll be some poop still sitting on her. Buttole when she comes in the house, because I like, you know, capped off.

They say they changing every like three thousand to really be on it, but two thousand over when it said I needed it, That's what I'm saying. There. There are some schools that thought that's like, it's really only every five that you need to change. Okay, so that makes me feel better. Yeah, you're right, good, good, But shout out what was his name? Chef. I'm so sorry. I don't did he say his name shout out fuck forgot forgot it boys? Beforehand, we thought he was from Philly.

Speaker 4: His area code is a Tampa area code. Now than I'm hearing his voice, I don't know.

01:40:55
Speaker 1: Now.

01:40:55
Speaker 4: I thought I was gonna get a get big go birds at the end of that from everything, Oh the fuck for calling in.

01:41:01
Speaker 7: Thank you Fox Chef, Jack, Papa char and Willie one shelf.

01:41:05
Speaker 1: Good morning.

01:41:05
Speaker 7: I say good morning because it is currently five forty five driving on my hour and a half to mute, listening to the show Love It You Got a Dad failed the other day, and I feel like I had to share.

01:41:17
Speaker 6: With the boys.

01:41:19
Speaker 7: Currently in the football seasons just starting up, so I am in the thick of it right now, you could say, going through it. So I get home later in the evening, don't get as much time to spend with my boys and my wife as I would like, so I try to take advantage of the small moments. Don't really like to come in and drop the hammer right when I get home and get on my oldest. But the other night he was giving mom a fit and accidentally hit his brother a little too hard, so I had to go in to dad mode on him, and once we had our chat, he was crying in his room. So I walk over and check on him to make sure he's okay, and I asked him what was wrong, and he said, Daddy, you just broke my heart. So in that in turn broke my heart.

01:42:10
Speaker 6: Yeah.

01:42:10
Speaker 7: So I had to sit down with him and turn it into a lesson of you know, he protects his baby brother, and when I'm not at the house, he protects baby brother and mom. So that's that's the person being a boy dad, I guess, trying to raise a little protector and raising him be a good brother and a good man. Love the show boys, keep doing what you're doing.

01:42:31
Speaker 1: PT.

01:42:31
Speaker 7: Six out.

01:42:33
Speaker 1: Love that call. That was a great call. That was I think there's like, ah, like my dad was like that right, Dad comes in the door. Oh shit, little fear enters your body, giving mom problems. You hit your brother. I had two younger brothers, so there's always you know, chaos around the three boys. But you know, Dad always dropped the always drop the hammer on the boys. But I will say that's what I appreciated it. What I appreciated about that call is him talking like you know, went in to sit with him, talk to him. Don't feel like, you know, love my dad, but I don't feel like that ever happened a whole lot. Yeah, in our household to where you know, old man's coming back around and sit and listen to you. I feel like that means a lot to the boy that you go in and you got more on the empathy had, especially when he says, Dad, you break my heart. Like, oh God, that would sink me back into the couch. But you know what I mean, just having that extra part again, it's like you're gonna have those bad moments and maybe like when you reflect as your dad, you're like, I kind of went about that all wrong. There's still opportunity to come back around, like going back into the room and sitting with them and you know, airing it out. However, you guys are airing it out, turning it into a lesson, putting on that empathy hat to where they're here, you guys are talking, you know what I mean, Yeah, dude, And the fact that like son is open to.

01:43:55
Speaker 2: Have that conversation of like saying, like, Dad, you broke my heart, know, like being able to like voice his emotions it sounds like that house does a good job of just kind of being able to talk it out.

01:44:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, like putting it out there the kid, I don't know how old the sun is, but feeling safe enough to say something like, oh you you're you know, you break my heart because a lot of times it's like if if I'm getting talking to you from my old man when I was little, it's like you're You're not really saying a whole lot. You're just like, yeah, I understand, yes, sir. You're not trying to escalate the situation. I was a yeser machine. Yeah, I know exactly what you yeah to where you're just sitting there in fear most of the time, yeah, versus having a space to where you're comfortable to this, to say like you know this how I feel, or you broke my heart doing this. Then it becomes an entire an entire lesson. You're giving him something to think about with. Hey, the expectation, the reason I'm hard on you, or the reason for X, Y and Z is you're the protector, bro, Like when dad's out of the house, when the head dog's out of the house, Like you are the head dog. Yeah, you are the man of the house. I could do a much better job of going about it different ways. So I feel like a lot of times that's you know, that's like the dad in you. You go hard for a moment, then you're like, ah, maybe I could have done it a little bit differently. I could have coached you up a little bit differently. I'm now feeling that in myself. I'm glad we're sitting here talking and you're listening. I'm listening to you. But this is why this happens. I'm not just doing it. I'm just doing it because I love to do it. I hate tat in your ass. Yeah, but my thought process behind it is because of X, Y and Z. So that's something that I need you to think about and you to be conscious of as you continue to get older, because you are You're gonna be the man of the house one day. Dad's not always going to be here, that always that kind of that sucks to say out loud right now. Yeah, but it's also the truth. I love that call. Shout out. Shout out that dad, Yeah, shout out that Dad.

01:45:52
Speaker 2: I do love the not just telling him to be better, but like telling him how to be better. Like the challenging him of like, hey, you got to be the protector. I know that that's like a pretty resounding thing across like parents and teachers of if you have a kid that's like acting out, give him some responsibility, right, and it helps a ton.

01:46:16
Speaker 1: So like giving him the responsibility of like, hey, you you gotta hold it down, dude, Yeah, I need you. We're a team. It reminds me of a comment this comes from my boy. I grew up with him. His name's Joey Winkle and of the Lesson less Week the punishment one underneath the clip was a comment and his comment is this is great. Something I learned from my father was if you must punish them, make sure and sit down with them afterwards and explain why what they did isn't tolerated. Mistakes don't require punishment, but disrespect does. There's a fine line there, in my opinion, ooh, which I love and shout out to my dad.

01:46:55
Speaker 2: He did do a good job of bouncing that in my eyes, Like, I think my dad did a really good job of There were some times where like I got the belt and I never wanted the belt again, But most of the time I was just talking.

01:47:10
Speaker 1: With my dad, you know, like it was not always.

01:47:16
Speaker 2: Spanking or whatever, but it was sitting down talking through why we don't do that, et cetera, and seeing that for like my brother too, My brother very often would get like in a verbal altercation with my dad for any said reason. I feel like my dad did a good job of kind of like doing the balancing act of having those conversations with my brother and working through it to where I did feel like safe enough to be able to voice my opinions. As I grew up. My brother's four years old, So there are those like little things that you're like, I kind of want to talk to my dad about or ask him if I can do this, or da da duh. He might get mad, but I wasn't too scared to like hide anything from him.

01:48:03
Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, i'd be nervous, Oh yeah, dude. For yeah, growing up, it's oh, it wouldn't be the sit down afterwards. It would almost be a moment to where all the guards are down, and it might be a day later or a moment later in the week, or we might end up, you know, he'd be out in the garage and I'd like go out in the garage or we'd be having like a deeper conversation about it to where he's more reflective in talking about it, yeah, versus in the moment or after that moment or later in that day. But yeah, or you're in there in the living room sitting with both mom and dad kind of talking about a recent situation.

01:48:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, getting set down by both parents too was always really great. Yeah, or it wasn't great when I was a kid, but like it worked right, Like when mom and dad would get me on we have these red sofas, dude, and they face each other, no TV in the room, when you got set down on the reds opas and mom and.

01:49:00
Speaker 1: Dad are sitting across the Yeah. Yeah, but great call in, great calling, And I'm pumped. I got to reflect. I got the shout out Joey's comment too. Shout out Joey, Yeah, shout out Joey. Good shout out, and shout out Bruce R. I P. Let's go. Let's go and do the lesson. You want to do the lesson? Yeah, bro, you got coined, you got you got the responsibility the quote lesson topic of your choice. Oh okay.

01:49:24
Speaker 2: So Will challenged me yesterday with not like challenge me in a bad way. But you were like, hey, I want you to do the lesson of the week this week. I went home last night, said Jill, I gotta do the lesson of the week. I gotta start thinking and planning because Will wants me to do the lesson of the week. And she said, yeah, that's good because Will's really been bringing the heat lately, and I feel like you need to start bringing the heat a little bit.

01:49:52

01:50:16
Speaker 1: Gooning too much? Like? Now, mind you just context We It's like you came home to say that, and that's after we posted a couple of videos. That's the horny video, that's the Horny shout out our merch btw tv dot com. So she's seeing best, she's gorolling and seeing she's seeing Will's lesson. Then she's seeing you being horny pop list.

01:50:47
Speaker 2: She's like this, this will guys out here bringing the heat. My husband's just a horn dog.

01:50:52
Speaker 1: What the heck? Anyways, so he says, you spent some time on it. I spent some time on it, which fires me because yesterday I think you're saying you're just gonna do like a speech like from a movie or something like that.

01:51:05
Speaker 2: Oh I'm going to allude to a movie scene like Okay, that's like the example at the end. But I have like a full little let's go bro fires me up? Okay, fire PT six Up bro pt six. Today's theme is bravery. Fear is an extremely strong emotion, so strong that animals can physically sense and smell when humans are afraid. Due to a chemical change in our bodies, we begin to sweat when fearful or anxious, and our brain releases cortisol, adrenaline, endorphins, dopamine, and.

01:51:45
Speaker 1: Nor epinephrine. I hope I nailed that one.

01:51:49
Speaker 2: These chemicals heighten alertness, numb our senses, numb our emotions, and cause us to either fight, freeze, or run when we're in fear. Oftentimes when we're angry, frustrated, or sad due to an outward force in our life, and the anger, frustration, or sadness will be the emotion that we display to the world, But the true cause of those emotions is actually caused by a deep seated fear. So fear is like the baseline emotion that then might have us a like that fight, freeze or run. It might cause you to fight, be angry, freeze, be sad, be you know, isolate. When my wife becomes angry with me because I didn't remember to take the diaper trash bag out, it's not just the action of my air that is angered her.

01:52:41
Speaker 1: It's her fear that she and.

01:52:43
Speaker 2: Our child, Scarlet are not my highest priority. When I'm frustrated with the way a friend has treated me and sit and stew on it for minutes, hours, or even days, it's not their actions towards me that have put me on the couch paralyzed with frustration or anger. It's the fear of having to confront them with my thoughts or feelings on the matter. Fear is such a basic instinct that it is physically contagious amongst humans. If someone jumps with fear, neurons literally fire off in our.

01:53:15
Speaker 1: Brains to mimic that same behavior. A scream can.

01:53:20
Speaker 2: Activate our fear reflexes in our brain on a primal level, and seeing fear turn to anger or sadness or frustration can also lead to others than adopting those same emotions. As we said before on the show, our kids are always watching us and picking up on actions and words that we say in display. With fear already being so contagious, it makes me worry about passing that along to my daughter or even my wife. But in all caps, humans are interesting creatures because just as we display fear like most animals of prey, we also possess bravery. And bravery is scientifically and physically just as contagious as fear. The same neurons that fire off to mimic fear patterns and others fire off when signs of bravery are displayed, standing up to danger, staying calm under pressure, calmly confronting a friend that has wronged you, or yes, even forgetting to take out that or taking out that dirty diaper trash in the wee hours of the early morning while you're half awake, Dopamine and oxytocin releasing your brain when you are brave, which gives us the feelings of connection, reward, and purpose. That neurological cocktail can override fear, especially in moments of anger, sadness, or frustration. Bravery is not the absence of fear.

01:54:53
Speaker 1: This is important. Bravery is not the absence of fear.

01:54:56
Speaker 2: It's the identification and self diagnosis so fear and then the decision to act in spite of the fear. So you have to first realize that you are afraid or something is causing you to feel that way, and you have to act in spite of it.

01:55:13
Speaker 1: That's what bravery is. A great example of bravery.

01:55:18
Speaker 2: Uh, this is a selfish add on is Jerius Evans, also known as g Baby in the film Hardball.

01:55:28
Speaker 1: Uh, this is dude, I might tear up if I read this monologue. It's so good. Read it, stay in it.

01:55:35
Speaker 4: Damn it.

01:55:37
Speaker 1: I tear up way too much.

01:55:40
Speaker 2: Dude. Hey, give me just a second, because I really don't want to tear up. I actually does because people are like, sureman, what the fuck?

01:55:48
Speaker 1: Dude? Okay, the fears triggering right now? It is walk with it, okay, not the absence. Let's go walk with it.

01:55:57
Speaker 2: Walk with it, okay, So jeer us Uh, was the youngest player on the Cocumba's the baseball team in this film. If you have not seen Hardball, Keanu Reeves is their coach. Not to get into the full plot of the movie, but he's not the best guy. He has to do the coaching because it's like court ordered.

01:56:19
Speaker 1: Yeah.

01:56:21
Speaker 2: So Jerius actually, sadly he passes away in the film. And this coach is making this speech at Jerius's funeral, uh, and he's talking about a huge game that happened earlier in the film that you don't know the result of the game until this moment here where he's speaking at the funeral. He says, Jerius was a player on the Cocumbas baseball team that I coach, and honestly, he was too young to play. So he's the younger brother of a player on the team, very small and portrayed very small in the film as well. But he wanted to be a part of the team, seem so badly that I couldn't say no. He had a great smile too. Though I'm not telling you anything that you don't already know. He was a really, really tough kid, just a boy who really wanted to be around his older brother. The other day, we played a really important baseball game against a good team, and with two outs in the last inning, I had no choice but to let Jerrus bat. And so in the movie you see that one of their best hitters as an asthma attack in the late stretch of the game, and Keanu literally has to put in this little kid or else they will have to forfeit the game. Yeah, I had no choice to put Jerius at bat. He was fearless as he stepped to the plate, and I was terrified for him. With two strikes in our hopes dwindling, he shot. He hit a shot down the first baseline and he won the game. And watching him raise his arms and triumph he ran the first I don't know why I'm crying. I swear I was lifted in that moment to a better place, and I swear he lifted the world in that moment, and he made me a better person. And I think the thing that everybody because I'm obsessed with college football and I'm obsessed with underdog teams, and I think the thing that like everybody loves about a good underdog story is like the bravery that they show in the situation where they should be so scared, they should be worried, they should be fearful, but they like act in defiance of that. And I just think it's so cool that, like chemically our brains when we see something brave, it makes us want to be brave. And I don't know, it just it fires me up that like something so contagious and sometimes toxic fear can be good. It could be a good thing, but something toxic like fear is so contagious. But then also our brains are able to like have this contagious bravery that we can just be inspired by stuff. So I challenge the PT sixers to go out and be brave about anything, you know, like really work through those times where you are feeling some anger, some sadness or whatever, and try and take a moment, take a breath, and kind of diagnose, like why am I truly feeling this way? Because I'm not actually mad that the grilled cheese was burned. I'm mad because I don't think why, you know, is really thinking about me or cares about me, or takes the time of blah blah blah, and you know in your heart of hearts that's not true.

01:59:38
Speaker 1: Or whatever you know in your heart hearts most of the time, you're letting yourself down in some area. Yes, dude. Also that also that so yeah, that was my lesson of the week. I didn't fully cry. Good work, bro, I kind of cried, but you did, and I started the tear for a second. And I also feel like there's a component that's absolutely hilarious that you're tearing up during the Hardball model. It's not like it's a movie. It's a fucking movie. And I watched that. I watched that movie. Dude.

02:00:12
Speaker 2: I cry every You could pull that video up right now on YouTube and not even watch the full movie. I will cry. Yeah, I will ball my eyes out.

02:00:21
Speaker 1: Like you're reading this monologue in this moment, like it was a real.

02:00:26
Speaker 2: About a fictional character that does not exist. It doesn't exist, and I'm tearing up and it made you tear up.

02:00:35
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I started to tear up. It was like a weird I was tearing up and also wanting to to laugh to like, what the hell are we doing here? That's gonna be the longest clip we've ever made. It's so long. I wish that we could just run the clip of g Baby hitting that shot. Oh absolutely, bro Oh my god, but good work man. That all right? Yeah, that was a that was a classroom session. Let's go. You were breaking down the science of everything, dude.

02:01:08
Speaker 2: Is that crazy that like animals can literally like horses and dogs can straight up. That's why they say when you get on a horse's back, they're like, chill out, because the horse can literally be like this motherfucker's like, yeah, I don't want them on my bad.

02:01:24
Speaker 1: I love to that you hit. The part is like, bravery is not the absence of fear. It's legitimately just identifying it, identifying it, accepting it, and fucking walking with that motherfucker. Yeah, that's what it is at all times.

02:01:36
Speaker 2: Yes, And to like, uh, I know, we have a lot of military listeners and a lot of police firefighter listeners. There was something cool that I came across when I was doing research for this of the number one reason why firefighters police officers that feel brave enough to charge into a dangerous situation, it's because they see one of their doing it. That's the number one reason across the board when asked like where do you get that bravery? I see it in somebody else and then it makes me feel like I'm strong enough to do it.

02:02:13
Speaker 1: I love that.

02:02:13
Speaker 6: Man.

02:02:13
Speaker 2: It's so cool, dude, Like just the leading by example in any kind of way. Yeah, so funny too, dude, of just.

02:02:22
Speaker 1: How primal our brains are.

02:02:24
Speaker 2: If if chef over there was like whoa, what the it went like that all of our brains would go what what was that?

02:02:31
Speaker 1: Right? Like we take factor primal creatures. Yeah, that was awesome. That was a great work and it was also funny. Let's go hey. I was like, I was trying to remember the monologue that Keanu Reeves was given. Yeah, is this a great movie? You haven't watched our ballt phenomenal movie, And I'm wondering what part in this is, like is gonna like break you down? Because I remember your ever you tear up when you're watching movie because it's a very sad like story and as you're going through it, like he's just recapping a game right now and this is shaking him to the core. He's in it. He's in this movie just crying. Dude.

02:03:17
Speaker 2: We have to play that video and just have me watch it in front of you guys out. Literally, I will ball my eyes out. We didn't even talk about the part where he sits He sits G Baby down before he goes out onto the plate, because it's like takes you to the game, and he's like, hey, it does. You do whatever you want out there. If you don't want to swing, you don't have to. Just know that we're proud of you no matter what happens. And G Babies Yeah, okay, that picture just puts some heat like right by his face and he drops the bat because the bat's like too big for him.

02:03:50
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you get up baby, Yeah yeah.

02:03:53
Speaker 2: And then when when he lines up for the pitch that like he smokes, it does that close up shot of G Baby like gripping of that and kind of like, you know, ye a little bit like getting into it.

02:04:04
Speaker 1: Oh dude, dude, that was awesome. You could have not even mentioned hardball. You could not have mentioned G Baby, and you could have just you were in such a moment and a role right there that you could have accepted that as a story that you witnessed. You know what I mean, like the way the way you were feeling that monologue, because what what what was making me just tear up? It's just seeing you. Hey, that's another thing. Brains were firing. I'm seeing you tear up. I'm like weirdly reacting and tearing up. And then I'm reminding myself. I'm like, he's he's deep right now in this Harpball movie, like he just saw it.

02:04:46
Speaker 2: I'll cry the fictional books. I'll cry to movie. I told you when I saw Creed in theaters for the first time, I was a fucking mess.

02:04:57
Speaker 1: Dude, Dude, I listen, I cry. I cry movies too. I'm talking to reenactment that you just delivered. That's what I'm saying. It's like, you remember when we were joking around. I feel like you witnessed all of this in real life. You remember when we were joking around about that line and Creed, Well, you'rebody sitting at home with the cows man. He's really feeling this. He loves this baby Horball.

02:05:20
Speaker 6: I do.

02:05:22
Speaker 1: When we were joking about Creed in the office and that line that slide gives Creed before he goes, He's like, you know, now, go out there and knock that some a bit. Yeah, He's like, I'm gonna knock that so bitch down. He's like, hey, I know you will. You want to know why because your creed and I love your kid, and.

02:05:41
Speaker 2: Then the music kicks in, just us talking about it. That that was like months ago in my head. When you were like saying that line, I was starting to get the goosebumps and like feeling in my thread.

02:05:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, film just gets me. Fucking damned damn. That was awesome. That was awesome. When you're like I might tear up on this part, I'm like, oh man, he kinna recite some story, like you know, recite something from home that just touches him in a different way. And then you start going into the hardball monologue with Scarlett's basketballs out of her mouth and she wants to cry, but she doesn't. She keeps it in and I reached down to the floor. I grabbed that passive fire. Yeah that's good stuff. Thank you everybody for tuning in. Were y'all gonna say something after He's now you have to? Is that right there? It doesn't be like I gotta go watch this goddamn movie. But I was sitting there shirms like in the monologued here up, I'm like, what's this movie? That's what's making me? Left my head too. I was like I wonder if there's people out there just like is this is he? Is he going through a movie.

02:07:03
Speaker 2: Scene and they're gonna be They're gonna be googling. They're gonna be like Jerrus Evans, who's this kid?

02:07:07
Speaker 7: Yeah?

02:07:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's so he's breaking down. Did he say that this is a movie.

02:07:14
Speaker 2: They're gonna be halfway listening and just god, is that epic story?

02:07:17
Speaker 1: This should be a movie so good.

02:07:21
Speaker 4: I wanted to like really empathize with how you're starting to tear up on this monologue whole time. But I'm thinking, I'm like, god, this movie must be like a real He's like a baseball movie. And I'm like, okay, Field of Dreams gets me water eyed, but.

02:07:38
Speaker 1: I guess and then and then I catch my that's always and I'm like to like, man, he's really it's hardball got him going. I don't. I really need to like sit down and.

02:07:54
Speaker 2: I'm not worried about the movie stuff, because like I love that I cry to movies and books, but I need to sit down and really analyze why cry whenever I like talk about like deep emotion stuff because I want to be better at like talking about that, you know what, I mean, I thought you did.

02:08:12
Speaker 1: A good job, man, job, thank you, but hey again you care.

02:08:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's those moments that you want to do a good job though, like you did do a good job. I'm saying in the past, Like at one of my best friend's weddings, I'm doing a grooms and speech. Yeah, and I had to I literally had to go sit down and collect myself. Two girls went and then I went back up and.

02:08:37
Speaker 1: Finished my speech. That sucks. That sucked.

02:08:44
Speaker 2: Shout out, Daniel Nauman, I love you. I couldn't even make it through the speech. And Jill's sitting over there rubbing my back of that's a movie scene.

02:08:52
Speaker 1: What just happened with that monologue? Just somebody up there breaking down over a movie scene and all the buddies in the bag. He's talking about Heartball, right, bro, that's me talking about a movie. Baseball comes up to you.

02:09:06
