1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,260
- It's you, Ted, folks.
2
00:00:02,260 --> 00:00:05,060
- But first, dad jokes.
3
00:00:05,060 --> 00:00:06,660
- "Frazing Kid" seems really hard,
4
00:00:06,660 --> 00:00:08,580
which is why I am all in favor
5
00:00:08,580 --> 00:00:11,700
of putting your kid on a leash if you want to.
6
00:00:11,700 --> 00:00:12,800
(audience laughs)
7
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:14,360
Well, your kid on a leash!
8
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,200
I don't care.
9
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,200
I've never seen a kid on a leash
10
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,260
who didn't need that leash.
11
00:00:19,260 --> 00:00:22,760
(audience laughs)
12
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,640
- The leash has always pulled taught.
13
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:25,640
(audience laughs)
14
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,440
Boy, is reaching for a stranger's mouth?
15
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,000
(audience laughs)
16
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,800
Put your kid on a leash!
17
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,400
I don't understand a single argument against it.
18
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,320
People are like, "Well, I don't wanna put my kid on a leash
19
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,440
"because I want him to explore, right?
20
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,520
"I want him to be an explorer."
21
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,120
You guys remember explorers, histories, worst monsters?
22
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,800
Why are we encouraging that?
23
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,080
Maybe if Columbus' mom had put him on a leash as a kid,
24
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,240
he wouldn't have spent his adulthood
25
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:56,800
genociding everyone he met.
26
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,280
(audience laughs)
27
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,840
Maybe that's a boundary you need to teach young.
28
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,360
(audience laughs)
29
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:03,440
People are like, "Well, what happens
30
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:04,800
"when you take the kid off the leash?"
31
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,520
And then they go crazy.
32
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,600
And to that, I say, "I'm not gonna be there then."
33
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,840
(audience laughs)
34
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,040
We're all at the airport now.
35
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,040
(audience laughs)
36
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:18,880
(audience laughs)
37
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,560
- Wake up, daddy, shone.
38
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,200
(upbeat music)
39
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,040
- Good word.
40
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,680
Do you use in place of stuck in front of your kids?
41
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,680
- Oh, good question.
42
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,320
I use the word's bum, so,
43
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:33,640
I don't need for more parenting kids.
44
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,840
- Oh, shut up, fuck off!
45
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,040
- I think you did make a black and beautiful.
46
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,600
- Anytime we can start off a show with that.
47
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,080
- Shut up, fuck off!
48
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,760
- Is it gonna start to a show?
49
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,320
- Whoa, man, oh, Bobcats.
50
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,720
Episode number three, oh eight.
51
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,120
And I just, I saw that today on Facebook
52
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,880
and it just hit me as--
53
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,160
- What word do you use in place of stuck in front of your kids?
54
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,960
- Oh, good question.
55
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,720
I use the word's bum, so,
56
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,240
follow me from my parenting tips.
57
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,240
- More parenting tips.
58
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:08,160
(laughs)
59
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,400
- There's a dad's home podcast and cheers to that.
60
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,480
- Cheers, Chad.
61
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:14,320
- Yes, cheers.
62
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:15,480
- Both of us tonight.
63
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,000
- Mmm.
64
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,520
- You're straight up mine in the form of a Dequila sunrise.
65
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,720
- What do you, what could be your drinkin' right there?
66
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,840
- So, this is...
67
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:31,840
Loose, Coneros, I think is the right way to say that.
68
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,560
Long story short, a friend of mine is
69
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:41,360
a minority investor in this Tequila brand here
70
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,240
in central Texas.
71
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,080
And it's basically like the horns in Spanish,
72
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,960
so I think it's Loose Coneros.
73
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:52,400
All of you Spanish speakers, please correct me
74
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,880
'cause I'm sure I'm wrong.
75
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,080
I'm gonna go look it up later.
76
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,440
- Green goes just to drink us.
77
00:02:58,440 --> 00:02:59,840
- So we don't speak Tequila.
78
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,960
- It's called the horns.
79
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,000
- You know, speaking English, right?
80
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,640
- No, they're right, he's right about that.
81
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:08,640
It's in, anyway, we call it the horns.
82
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:11,080
It's the Tequila horns, so good time.
83
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,200
- But yeah, obvious connection right to
84
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,160
the local sports teams here.
85
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,840
- Sure, the local horns.
86
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,840
- Yeah, anyway, so we were at a dinner party recently
87
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,640
and we're gifted a bottle.
88
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:25,000
And it's pretty damn good.
89
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,600
- That's the idea, I feel like a dick.
90
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,240
My wife was gifted a bottle for motor for clients
91
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,080
and that's what I tapped into for tonight's,
92
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,680
but I didn't even bother to look at the goddamn people.
93
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:34,680
(laughing)
94
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,040
- It could be Quervo, you don't know.
95
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,040
- So no, it's definitely not, and it's a great Tequila.
96
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:40,360
And again, I don't wanna not Quervo
97
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:41,920
if they wanted to sponsor the show,
98
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,480
but we honestly are better Tequila's out there.
99
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,760
No, no, no, no.
100
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,520
- There could be, I mean, there's a lot better
101
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,360
Tequila's out there.
102
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,040
- There's the most, there's the keyless out there
103
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,640
better than Quervo, let's just put that out there.
104
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,720
Again, I'm open to hearing Quervo's side of the story,
105
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,920
but that said, it's a stellar Tequila,
106
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:01,680
and I wish I had the name and I wanna,
107
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,960
happy to run upstairs and go grab it and just talk about it,
108
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,120
but I'll say it and bring it up.
109
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,240
Maybe I'll put it in the show notes
110
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:08,960
and have that in the show notes for later on,
111
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,800
but it's a fantastic Tequila as well,
112
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,640
one of my favorites and I've had in recent weeks.
113
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,760
So I'm enjoying it, I just don't know what the name is
114
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,400
because it was gifted to my wife.
115
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,320
- Yeah, and Tequila sometimes is just Tequila, right?
116
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,840
I mean, sometimes Margarita at a restaurant,
117
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:30,720
and sometimes will ask me like, hey, what do you prefer?
118
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,560
And I gotta make some shit up, right?
119
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,560
Like, oh, I don't, Tebaba?
120
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,680
- It's getting on the top shelf and then,
121
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,320
- Yeah, that's my favorite, I'll have that.
122
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,280
- That's right, that's right, that's the good stuff.
123
00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:44,280
- That's right there.
124
00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:46,880
- Yeah, well, we've got a good solid plan,
125
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:47,960
I say stick with it.
126
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,560
Welcome to the show, coming up on the show today.
127
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,440
In fact, let's just kind of get the scroll going there.
128
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,400
Coming up on the show today, we are going to talk about the IK,
129
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,520
which I didn't know had a name, but it's got a name,
130
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,480
and apparently not only does it have a name,
131
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,520
it's spreading like COVID and it's spreading,
132
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:08,360
- Oh shit.
133
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,440
- To married people, apparently.
134
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,680
So we will talk a little bit about the IK as well as
135
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,160
the parenting, 'cause if there's one thing every parent
136
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,920
has experienced on some level.
137
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,960
It's hearing from either another parent,
138
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,520
the worst possible scenario here is that you hear from somebody
139
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,640
who's not a parent that wants to give you parenting advice
140
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,720
and you just shut the fuck up for all I can.
141
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,840
- Wait, wait, cool, where's our sound effect?
142
00:05:33,840 --> 00:05:35,320
- Oh, the shut the fuck up.
143
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,160
- Shut the fuck up.
144
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,000
- Yeah, fuck up.
145
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,640
- I mean, that's literally, if you're not a parent,
146
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,120
- Shut the fuck up.
147
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,280
- That's it.
148
00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:45,320
There's no reason to be giving parenting advice,
149
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,120
but occasionally you'll get the school teacher
150
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,200
or the church parishioner that decides it's time
151
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,160
to explain to you the way parenting should be done,
152
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,600
and then you're stuck hearing some parenting tips
153
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,200
or worse yet trends, which we all just fucking hate
154
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,280
from the phrase helicopter parents to,
155
00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:05,680
which it's moved on to snow,
156
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,400
- Snow, cloud, bulldozer, tank, yeah, you name it,
157
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:10,760
like pick a vehicle.
158
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,000
- We'll talk about some of the ones,
159
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,400
and then, and I think freely one good thing
160
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,720
to Chad and I do here in the dad's home podcast is
161
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,880
we are more than willing to make fun of ourselves
162
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,280
when we're like, yeah, I do that.
163
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:23,320
I do that.
164
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:24,520
- That is, amen, amen.
165
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,560
- So yeah, there are definitely times
166
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,040
and we're gonna talk about this list of trends,
167
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,720
parenting trends that everybody hates.
168
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:32,560
- Yes.
169
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,080
- And I, and looking through the list,
170
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,880
I was like, yeah, I do that, I do that.
171
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,800
- No, no, no, no, no, we do.
172
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:40,720
- We do. - Yeah, we do.
173
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,960
- No, I do.
174
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,440
And yeah, but there is really nothing worse
175
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,880
than getting unsolicited parenting advice.
176
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:47,720
- Right.
177
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,520
- Really from anyone for that matter,
178
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,520
'cause it always feels like such a, like,
179
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,640
- Well, first of all, they dig, it's a dig.
180
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:56,840
- It's not somebody who's like,
181
00:06:56,840 --> 00:06:59,240
hey, little known fact, there's no, again, okay,
182
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:00,200
I'm gonna reference something
183
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,400
that a lot of the younger parents, the younger dads aren't
184
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,800
gonna get, but Cliff Clayvin was a character on cheers.
185
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,880
- Oh, Cliff Clayvin was the postman on cheers.
186
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,440
And one of the famous things for Cliff Clayvin was,
187
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,040
hey, he's a little known fact.
188
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,120
John Ratzonberger played Cliff Clayvin.
189
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,880
Hey, yeah, these little known facts.
190
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,640
None, zero of these parenting trends and tips
191
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,680
that come from other parents came from nowhere.
192
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,160
They didn't pull them out of their ass,
193
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:25,440
like, oh, hey, did you know?
194
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:26,520
Here's a little known fact.
195
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,760
Nobody's doing that.
196
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,080
It's all very judgy.
197
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,680
So when somebody brings you one of these parenting tips,
198
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,640
slash trends, it's because they're fucking judging you.
199
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,840
And that's, and you've done something
200
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,240
that either put whatever your action was
201
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,840
the way you treated your kid or,
202
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,360
what way, the way you dressed at the park, I don't know,
203
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:48,880
whatever the fuck it was,
204
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,440
caused them to go instant judge on you.
205
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,440
And they're about to let you know what you're doing wrong
206
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,720
and that there's a right way to do it.
207
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,360
And they somehow secretly know what that right way is.
208
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:00,280
So that's right.
209
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:01,760
That's when that's a threat to you.
210
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,920
- I'm gonna throw this one on top of what you said.
211
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:08,240
John Ratzonberger, folks who was not only Cliff Clayvin in cheers,
212
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,280
he has been in every single,
213
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,960
and I'm not making this app, Pixar movie.
214
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,120
- That's true. - As a voice.
215
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:16,960
- He has done some--
216
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,520
- For you younger parents, go watch any Pixar movie
217
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,000
from, you know, Toy Story to Inside Out
218
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,840
and that is, he's in there, so that's him.
219
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,280
- Yep, yep, it's what he does and does so well.
220
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,080
So we'll get into some of that on the way.
221
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,720
- I would take unsolicited parenting advice from Cliff Clavelin.
222
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,280
- You would. - Cliff Clayvin's
223
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:43,560
- Unsolicited parenting advice.
224
00:08:43,560 --> 00:08:46,040
He had such bad luck as a stand-up comic.
225
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,400
Remember, is that,
226
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,120
when you stand-up comedy is the postman, stand-up comic
227
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,640
and the line at the end was, what's up with that?
228
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,520
Like his whole thing was his punchline for every joke
229
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:55,920
was, what's up with that?
230
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,160
And then he goes, if I could be serious for a moment.
231
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,160
World peace.
232
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,360
What's up with that?
233
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,880
(laughs)
234
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,280
- Oh, it's unsolicited parenting advice.
235
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,520
What's up with that? - Unsolicited parenting advice.
236
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,080
- Look now, look, we will also, we will kind of counter that
237
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,320
with a little bit of what it was like to be a parent in the 80s
238
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,680
'cause neither Chad or I were parents in the 80s,
239
00:09:12,680 --> 00:09:15,520
but we had parents in the 80s and for what it's worth.
240
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:16,480
- We were parented.
241
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,120
- We were parented if that's what you wanna call it.
242
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,800
It's stuff now that you look back on,
243
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,160
you're like, how the fuck did they get away with that?
244
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,600
How are they not cited for some of this stuff?
245
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,720
But, but we will bring it up and we'll discuss that
246
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,160
coming up a little bit later here in the dead,
247
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,800
so much. - And to be fair,
248
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,160
that was also back when the ash trays were in the armrest
249
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,600
in the door and the back seat built the car.
250
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,240
- They were built in everywhere.
251
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:44,240
- And yet have you stumbled across a movie recently
252
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:50,280
that was made, I'll just even say 30 years ago
253
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:54,680
and you're just like, oh shit, they allowed that then.
254
00:09:54,680 --> 00:09:59,680
Like, so in going back and kind of bumping right up
255
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,800
to this 80s parent thing, we talked my daughter, Charlie,
256
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,560
my 17 year old, we were talking about movies here
257
00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:13,120
and then that we think she hasn't seen it yet,
258
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,720
she should definitely check it out.
259
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,400
And one of the ones was on the heels
260
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,720
of the death of Gene Hackman.
261
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,200
This next week. - Oh yeah.
262
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,120
- We were talking about Gene,
263
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,440
she wanted to know who Gene Hackman was.
264
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,680
So we're talking about Superman and I'm like,
265
00:10:26,680 --> 00:10:29,320
oh my God, one of the best Westerns ever made.
266
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,880
And for those of you who love Westerns,
267
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,160
you know what I'm talking for those who know, you know.
268
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,600
You know what I'm talking about again,
269
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,720
unforgiven with Clint Eastwood and he,
270
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,560
he and Gene Hackman won the Oscar for his role
271
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:43,120
as the sheriff in that and was one of my favorite movies,
272
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:44,760
is one of my favorite Westerns of all time.
273
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:49,600
But my favorite Gene Hackman movie is the Bird Cage.
274
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,280
Robin Williams.
275
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,840
And I'm talking to my daughter who,
276
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,680
as we've talked about here, we've shared this before,
277
00:10:56,680 --> 00:10:59,400
my daughters love every Friday night
278
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,040
were watching RuPaul's Drag Race.
279
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,480
It's their favorites, our family thing to do.
280
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,000
Yes, this guy here, the same guy who...
281
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,240
- What word do you use in place of fuck
282
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,440
in front of your kids?
283
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,360
- Oh, good question.
284
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,240
I use the word fuck.
285
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,640
So follow me for more parenting tips.
286
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,640
- My soon to be 11 year old daughter
287
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,160
knows what a Kooter slam is,
288
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,040
which is thanks to RuPaul's Drag Race
289
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,400
'cause that's one of the dance moves
290
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,680
that the drag racers will perform
291
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:29,360
during the lip sync for your fucking life
292
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,040
portion of the RuPaul's Drag Race.
293
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,920
And so we've gone through that whole rig
294
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,960
and we're all but my daughter has never seen the Bird Cage
295
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,280
and so I'm trying to explain to her with the Bird Cage.
296
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,080
I'm like, you know what, we should just watch it
297
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:41,480
on the heels of Gene Hackman's death.
298
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,520
So we popped on the video on Friday night
299
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,240
and we watched the Bird Cage.
300
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,040
And it's just so amazing to me,
301
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:54,040
A, to see somebody smoking in a restaurant or in a bar
302
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,960
and going to holy, this was night,
303
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,040
it was filmed, it was released in 1996.
304
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,160
So we're not even talking the 70s into the 80s.
305
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,280
We're talking almost Y2K
306
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,360
and people were still fucking smoking in bars
307
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,040
and smoking in restaurants.
308
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,720
That smoking sections in restaurants
309
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,720
that made little to no sense
310
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,880
because it was just a few tables away, perhaps.
311
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,280
- This is no kids, no.
312
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,880
- No, it was perhaps separated by a little bit of lattice
313
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,600
which the smoke just goes right through
314
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,560
for those of you who are physics experts.
315
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:27,440
There was nothing that was stopping the smoke
316
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,720
from going through.
317
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,280
So to see people in the restaurants
318
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,480
and in the bars smoking, you're like holy shitballs.
319
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,080
I thought that was forever ago
320
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:40,520
and it literally was happening in 1996, whatever.
321
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:41,480
So there's that.
322
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,040
But then also thinking about some of the parenting
323
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,120
that went on in the movie
324
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,680
and the thing that on the back end of that,
325
00:12:48,680 --> 00:12:51,520
my wife and I had a conversation saying,
326
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:56,520
"I don't know that this movie could be made again.
327
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,520
The way it was in 1996."
328
00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,360
- Oh shit.
329
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:04,120
- "The movie made the lane arguably the only out gay character
330
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,520
in the movie while Robin Williams,
331
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,720
a straight guy in the kid's marriage."
332
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,440
- Heck, heck, heck, Zaria too though.
333
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,280
- Right.
334
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,720
- Not a gay guy and right, but in that movie,
335
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,320
right, he was, yeah, in the movie, right?
336
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,320
He was the gay botler in there
337
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,640
who wanted to be in the show so bad, Spartacus.
338
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,160
He was amazing.
339
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:30,400
I don't think you can make that movie
340
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,840
without gay characters in the starring roles.
341
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,600
This day and age, the way they did in 1996.
342
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,600
And again, that movie is so good and amazing.
343
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,080
- It's the whole,
344
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,000
like you got away the star power
345
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,320
to bring in the audiences versus putting
346
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:51,960
a realistic character in there,
347
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,760
which is why Asians are unrepresented
348
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,920
in Hollywood, blah, blah, blah, I can go on forever.
349
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,120
And the Oscars are going on, I think,
350
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,320
maybe tonight, I don't know.
351
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,880
So, but it seems like that shit's getting better,
352
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:05,720
but you're not wrong.
353
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,480
I mean, there's so much of that that is going on
354
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,040
that in Hollywood.
355
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:14,480
And, you know, just like parenting that happened in the 80s,
356
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,000
we couldn't parent like that today.
357
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,800
So you can make a movie like that.
358
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,400
- And again, when you hear what our parents did in the 80s,
359
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,040
and this article that's written specifically about all that,
360
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,680
it'd be like, how is it possible?
361
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,560
How are they not cuffed and hauled off?
362
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:30,400
How are they?
363
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:31,240
- How am I still alive?
364
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,080
- Parents.
365
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:32,920
- Right here.
366
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:33,760
- Yeah.
367
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:34,760
- How am I still alive?
368
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,160
- So all of that is still on the way.
369
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,240
Here at the dad's home podcast,
370
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:39,720
we'll get to that all coming up in just a minute.
371
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,760
But first I wanna give everybody a heads up
372
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,360
in a warning here that there is breaking news.
373
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,000
- Ladies and gentlemen, can I please have your attention?
374
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,760
I've just been handed an urgent news story.
375
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,480
- Get your masks on.
376
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,360
Keep your socially distant selves away from the person behind you
377
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,680
and in front of you because the ICC is out.
378
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:03,680
It's not spread as widely as what we are seeing with COVID
379
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,480
or even for what it's worth.
380
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:07,320
- For the measles.
381
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:08,160
- For the measles, yeah.
382
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,000
- Yeah.
383
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,440
- You guys have a problem there as well.
384
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,840
I understand that polio is making a return.
385
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,840
There's a lot of different things that are happening right now
386
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,280
and there should be concerns.
387
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:22,000
But the ICC is one, I don't know too many people
388
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,520
who have ever, who haven't seen conversation about it.
389
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,040
I haven't seen a whole bunch of social media about it,
390
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,040
but it is spreading.
391
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,240
It is definitely something that we need to be concerned about.
392
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,120
For those of you who don't know what the ICC is,
393
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,640
I saw it on social media and my wife actually sent me,
394
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,240
the same day I saw it, she's like, look at this.
395
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,960
And I'm like, oh my God, she's telling me she's got the ICC.
396
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,320
That's what she's trying to tell me.
397
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,520
This is how I read into it, right?
398
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,480
As soon as I get this, I'm like, oh, this is for sure.
399
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:47,320
- I have all of it.
400
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,160
- I have these symptoms.
401
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,160
- I have these symptoms.
402
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,840
- This is like she's wet indeed herself into,
403
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,080
into believe, I Googled it, I've got it.
404
00:15:55,080 --> 00:16:00,160
She's totally got it, completely a hundred percent.
405
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,120
And so with that, I'm like, well, what is this,
406
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:03,400
I gotta figure out what this ICC is
407
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,680
'cause the ICC is something that sounds relatively scary
408
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,240
and low and behold here, the ICC is a sudden feeling
409
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:13,360
of disgust towards your partner often for minor things.
410
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:14,880
So again, if you're married,
411
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,520
study showed physical appearance is a less frequent
412
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,600
extrigger than behavior or personality.
413
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,720
Okay, so it's not necessarily the extra weight you've put on
414
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,520
or the crow's feet around your eyes
415
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,360
or the wrinkles around the sides of your mouth
416
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,040
or even your horrible 1990s goatee.
417
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,320
- And you know, you're long toenails, right?
418
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:42,160
- Thank you.
419
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,000
- Any of those.
420
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,360
It's not even my snoring apparently, which is
421
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,840
clearly an ICC, I mean, that's a symptom of ICC if I've ever heard
422
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:49,840
it. - It is.
423
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,960
- Literally heard it.
424
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,480
But they're saying that 64% of people,
425
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,680
64% of married people, I'm guessing,
426
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,160
what they're saying, have felt the ICC toward their partner.
427
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:05,160
26% have ended their relationship
428
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,000
right after feeling the ICC.
429
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,040
So that's apparently a moment that for those of us
430
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,720
who haven't been divorced, we've gotten over the ICC,
431
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,160
I don't, your thoughts on that, Chad,
432
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,560
can we, can one overcome the ICC?
433
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,720
- Well, I think the question here is,
434
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,200
can you build up an immunity to the ICC?
435
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,400
Like you could come down with the ICC, right?
436
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,560
Be sick with the ICC for a while.
437
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:30,400
- Yeah.
438
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,160
- And maybe in your antibodies,
439
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:38,160
your ICC antibodies begin to build up a tolerance for the ICC.
440
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,960
- Right.
441
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:41,440
- And that's how marriage is done.
442
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:42,440
- You don't have it, right?
443
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,640
It's definitely there.
444
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,160
You've experienced it.
445
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,640
It's somehow dulled?
446
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,080
- I think it's like herpes.
447
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,760
So if you have herpes,
448
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,840
like I think like 70 or 80 or maybe even 90% of us have herpes,
449
00:17:58,840 --> 00:17:59,680
right?
450
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:00,680
Like you get a cold sore, that's herpes.
451
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:01,520
- Right.
452
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,440
- It's hard, not to have herpes is from what I understand.
453
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:06,640
- Right.
454
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,520
- And so, - Do you think public toilets,
455
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:09,880
your kids, your kids, your herpes,
456
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,520
easily get herpes. - If you've ever shopped at pottery barn,
457
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,680
you're probably got herpes.
458
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,920
If your wife is ever,
459
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,600
I don't even think this is a thing anymore.
460
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:19,800
So I'm gonna say it,
461
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,360
if your wife ever shopped at BB or baby,
462
00:18:22,360 --> 00:18:23,480
I don't know what they call that at the mall,
463
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,640
the women always have the BB shirt,
464
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:26,880
they probably got herpes.
465
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,240
They probably got the abstracts
466
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,320
when you shop at the purchase of their baby shirt.
467
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:31,960
- I'm sure, I'm sure that it.
468
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,600
- And so, yeah, in my mind,
469
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,320
I think that the ICC is like that where you catch it at some point,
470
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,400
maybe you caught the ICC at baby while you were shopping
471
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:41,800
with your spouse.
472
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,880
And then you're like,
473
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,280
"Oh, why do I feel like shit?"
474
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,040
Are you realize it's the ICC and then you--
475
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:48,880
- It's the ICC.
476
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:49,720
- It's the ICC.
477
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:50,560
- You know, week or two goes by,
478
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,080
you're like, "Hey, I'm feeling a little bit better."
479
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,080
I mean, I think I maybe still have the ICC,
480
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,000
but it feels like it's less.
481
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,720
- I do, it makes a lot of sense.
482
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,320
- What I don't see, and again,
483
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,440
this is just based upon this article,
484
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:03,840
and I believe it's psychology today,
485
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,960
was one of the places that was talking about the ICC.
486
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,640
They say that narcissism and perfectionism increase
487
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,080
the ICC likelihood.
488
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,040
So if you're focused on yourself and only yourself,
489
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,040
and or the perfection is like,
490
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,840
you've gotta have everything down pat this way,
491
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,960
and there's no other way to do it.
492
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,800
In your partner, the ICC factor climbs up,
493
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,080
like it jacks up when that happens, right?
494
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,120
Which is why I am definitely not a perfectionist
495
00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:32,480
when it comes to getting a hand job,
496
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,040
because I think that's the one that's the ICC.
497
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:35,880
(laughs)
498
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:37,400
- I think that's a good point.
499
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:38,680
Like if you're complaining about that,
500
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,240
you need that to be perfect.
501
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:41,240
- Yeah. - That's,
502
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:42,800
that's, that's ends in divorce.
503
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,800
- I wanna say this, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna,
504
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,480
for a dude, and I'll just say this for the dad's home podcast,
505
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:48,360
and correct me if I'm wrong,
506
00:19:48,360 --> 00:19:51,920
except that I do believe that for dads, for guys,
507
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,600
one of the things that will cure the ICC,
508
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,880
we are very, we're prone to catch the ICC,
509
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,200
just like everybody else in America,
510
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,120
just like our partners, like everybody else in America,
511
00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:03,120
we catch the same ICC that they've caught,
512
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:05,720
maybe at a different time, different place, different,
513
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,680
era, whatever. - They've passed it back and forth
514
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,760
between each other.
515
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,400
But from the dude's perspective here,
516
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,680
there's nothing that cures a case of the ICCs.
517
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,720
It's like chicken soup for the ICC is a solid hand job
518
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,000
or some form of dry-humping.
519
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,160
I mean, that's really what it comes down to.
520
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,080
Of course, the, you know, I can,
521
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:24,920
- I can cure.
522
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:25,760
- I can cure.
523
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,200
The further you wanna go, absolutely.
524
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,400
That will absolutely cure my ICC for a very long,
525
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,920
I mean, perhaps even just get rid of it all together,
526
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,560
may, may completely destroy that virus, the ICC.
527
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,040
- Oh, it's, but I think like most medicines, right,
528
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:46,040
with something that's a, you know, a prolonged disease,
529
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,040
you know, something that sticks with your body,
530
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,960
you need, you need medicine, you know, every,
531
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:54,160
every so often, right?
532
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,800
To make sure that you keep the ICC away, right?
533
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,360
Like, you know, Apple a day keeps the doctor away,
534
00:20:59,360 --> 00:21:00,360
well, right?
535
00:21:00,360 --> 00:21:02,160
- Right, hand job a day keeps the ICC away, so.
536
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:03,240
- That's, hold on.
537
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:04,960
We, I'm seeing a t-shirt right now.
538
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:05,800
I'm here.
539
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,360
(laughing)
540
00:21:07,360 --> 00:21:08,520
- Dad's on podcast.
541
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,120
- There is a t-shirt.
542
00:21:10,120 --> 00:21:10,960
- Let's go.
543
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:11,800
- Let's go.
544
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:12,960
- Hand job a week keeps the ICC away.
545
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:13,960
(laughing)
546
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,200
I think that that, and again, I'm not saying it's a cure all,
547
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,640
but I am saying that, you know, sometimes one's symptoms
548
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,200
can be so bad and you need a little tamaflu
549
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,160
or you need a little nightclub that just kind of
550
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,160
gets you over that hump for the time being
551
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,600
to be able to go back to work.
552
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,160
And I'm saying when it comes to the ICC,
553
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,040
sometimes the only hump is a dry hump.
554
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,720
And that's not a bad thing.
555
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,200
It's not a bad thing.
556
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,480
I'm just saying that that can alleviate symptoms.
557
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,760
If you've got symptoms, you might want to try
558
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,360
the dry hump for alleviating symptoms.
559
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:43,360
- Beautifully put.
560
00:21:43,360 --> 00:21:44,640
- Yeah, beautifully put.
561
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,920
- And again, and I'm, oh, I just want to be clear.
562
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,280
I'm not saying go out and get a dry hump
563
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:49,560
from a complete stranger.
564
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,920
No, no, that's not the point I'm trying to make here.
565
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,800
From the one that you love that is giving you the ICC,
566
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,480
it's perfectly-
567
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,600
- That's the only cure.
568
00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:58,960
- That's the only cure for the ICC.
569
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,120
It's if you want to get over that ICC,
570
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:02,760
it's if you don't want to end like the 26%
571
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,600
ending the relationship right after the ICC signs
572
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,080
have kicked in, dry hump, hand job, I'm just saying.
573
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:14,080
It's a solid remedy initially for the situation.
574
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:20,920
So now moving onward, the trends
575
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,720
that make us absolutely sick as parents.
576
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,880
And again, if you've heard this,
577
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:30,880
and my, I'm gonna say it, my daughter throws shit back
578
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,480
in my face all the time when it comes to this.
579
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,480
Does your daughter do this, your daughters do this to you
580
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,320
where they're like, why are you such a hell,
581
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,000
they take whatever the trend is,
582
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,880
why are you such a helicopter parent?
583
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,920
Why are you constantly, why hovering?
584
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,760
Why are you such a snow plow?
585
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,320
I don't even know what the fuck that parent is.
586
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,040
I have no idea what a snow plow parent is.
587
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,560
I'm like barreling through and just like pushing
588
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,160
everything aside for your kid.
589
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,280
I don't know, I'm just trying to guess here.
590
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,040
But when you hear these trends for parenting,
591
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,000
you're like, there's no way I do that.
592
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,640
And then you take a second to go, okay, maybe I just did that now.
593
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,160
It's very good and possible that I just, I know me,
594
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,560
not me, I would never do that.
595
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:16,920
There's so many facets of ways to raise your children
596
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,520
and literally changes from week to week.
597
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,680
If I did a search right now on chat GPT, I'm sure to come up
598
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:26,160
with the top five parenting trends or top 10 over the last 10 years
599
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,680
and there's gonna be way more than that.
600
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,880
There'll be like a hundred different parenting trends that are there.
601
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,280
But you know, like everything from,
602
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,840
do you get your kids plastic toys?
603
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,800
Or is that not okay because the plastics could cause cancer
604
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,920
so you've got to get them toys made of wood?
605
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,720
Or gifts that you're getting for other kids
606
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,800
because you've got to have naturally sourced gifts
607
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:47,760
for people's kids.
608
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:48,800
What about this?
609
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,640
For us, when my daughter was growing up,
610
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,000
you had to be concerned, not just at school,
611
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,600
with which kids had allergies
612
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,520
and what you could provide in the school.
613
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:01,160
Like how many times did birthdays at school get canceled
614
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,440
or you could only bring something from the store
615
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,840
that didn't contain anything that was cooked with nuts?
616
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,400
Like it was, you know, it was all of,
617
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:09,680
- It's all of those. - It's all of those.
618
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,240
- Right, legitimate things that you have to have concerns about
619
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,280
that started to shift the way you did things at your house
620
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,640
or for your kid from when you were growing up.
621
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:24,640
So, we're in a place right now as weird as this sound.
622
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,880
I've got a dog, I've got a golden retriever.
623
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,520
We were feeding that golden retriever,
624
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,360
you just run out of the local pet store
625
00:24:31,360 --> 00:24:34,920
get them like the Purina dog chow, put it in the bowl, whatever.
626
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,240
Now we started doing fresh pet for a little bit.
627
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,640
That's pricey shit, you know that?
628
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:40,480
Fresh pet, by the way,
629
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,840
we would absolutely accept your advertising.
630
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,840
- Okay, and I will go you one better.
631
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:50,840
- Yeah, we actually hand make our dogs food.
632
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,280
We do the same thing.
633
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:53,560
- Yes, we do the same thing.
634
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,560
- All right, for our favorite food, ready?
635
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,360
- It's cheap as shit when you make it yourself.
636
00:24:57,360 --> 00:24:58,200
- Totally, yes.
637
00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,280
I mean, it doesn't last very long,
638
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,280
but that's okay 'cause it's fresh and they're eating good food
639
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:02,760
'cause we just, we get some of,
640
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,120
we either do like a ground chicken, ground turkey,
641
00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:05,960
we brown that up.
642
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:07,960
- Freezin' frozen. - Yeah,
643
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,720
throw some vegetables in there,
644
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,400
throw some keen wall or some rice in there,
645
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:13,480
along with some broth,
646
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:14,320
they can't keep that going,
647
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:15,520
some sweet potatoes in there.
648
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,760
And that's what my dog gets to eat every week.
649
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,760
And she loves it, it's the best thing going.
650
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,080
And I'm like, well, at least it's not the shit
651
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,480
that they put in the kibble that I have no idea what's in there.
652
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:25,320
- That's right.
653
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,000
- So, we started doing that.
654
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,840
- And I see this, not a parenting trend.
655
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,800
Why me think it is if you consider your pet.
656
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,000
- It is not, we just talked about you're doing it,
657
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,360
and I'm doing it, it's a trend.
658
00:25:34,360 --> 00:25:38,400
- Yes, it's, and I mean, we're parents to our pets, I guess.
659
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:39,800
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
660
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,680
- But I mean, like how many parents did you know?
661
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:46,400
We went from getting jars of baby food, or not even jars,
662
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:47,800
I'm sorry, I can't even say that anymore.
663
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,720
The squeezable containers that you could give your kids
664
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,720
the baby food in.
665
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:54,720
- See, that's how we,
666
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:55,720
- Let's go, we are adults.
667
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,360
- Should you do that or should you puree it yourself?
668
00:25:58,360 --> 00:26:01,120
Like, should you make your own shit for your kids?
669
00:26:01,120 --> 00:26:04,160
So, there's all of these kinds of different trends that come up.
670
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,920
And if you're not doing whatever the trend is,
671
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,760
you're going to hear about it from somebody who's doing that trend.
672
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,000
Even for the longest time, as we now take a look at who's in charge
673
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,800
of health in this country,
674
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,360
there were concerns about vaccines,
675
00:26:16,360 --> 00:26:19,240
and whether or not that contact caused autism,
676
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,200
and there were plenty of scientific studies
677
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,480
to point out the facts, but that didn't stop people
678
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,440
from going that complete other direction.
679
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,160
Point being, that was a massive trend
680
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:28,400
for a long period of time.
681
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,160
I had a number of people, my age, with my daughter's age,
682
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,360
they had kids, the same age as my daughter,
683
00:26:34,360 --> 00:26:36,520
there were questioning, should I even get my kid vaccinated
684
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:37,520
for all these things?
685
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,320
I'm like, okay, that's a trend.
686
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,960
That's certainly something that we've got to take a look at.
687
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:43,680
And I knew a number of people that were staying away
688
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,560
specifically from that, that I think that, you know,
689
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,560
it became a very vast movement, which maybe,
690
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,520
may have led to some of the chicken pox you're seeing
691
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,000
right there in Texas right now.
692
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,120
Could very well have led to a good portion of that.
693
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:59,600
So, anyway, those are some of the trends,
694
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,120
but let's dig into some of the ones that they say,
695
00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:04,920
are ones that parents are really pissed off about you.
696
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,200
There's been a BuzzFeed has gone through,
697
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,240
asked the parents that they have reading their website,
698
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,480
what are some of the ones that are just annoying as fuck to you?
699
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:13,840
And these are the ones that came back.
700
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:17,720
So, number one, parents never let their children be bored.
701
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,320
When my daughter complained about boredom,
702
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:20,560
I gave her some chores.
703
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:24,200
She learned to embrace boredom, which is not entirely a bad thing.
704
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,080
What did, I'll tell you what I did,
705
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,160
I gave my daughter my phone.
706
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:29,520
That's the wrong move.
707
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,600
That's not the right move.
708
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,080
That is, see, there you go, the very first one out of the gate,
709
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:36,480
both you and I are guilty.
710
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,240
We can't let our children be bored.
711
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,600
Can't let our children be bored.
712
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:41,440
I can't.
713
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,720
I do like what this guy says, hey, okay, your bored,
714
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,760
let's go outside and get him on the yard.
715
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:48,600
Right.
716
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:49,600
Oh, now you're not so bored.
717
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,080
Oh, son, you're not bored anymore, right?
718
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:52,920
You're raking leaves that boards you?
719
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,320
Hey, all right, that's cool.
720
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:56,160
Oh, that's cool.
721
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:57,000
Oh, that's cool.
722
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:57,840
That's fine.
723
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,120
We need to clean the garage out,
724
00:27:59,120 --> 00:28:01,400
we're going to organize the shelves, let's go.
725
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,400
We got to fix the black top on the driveway.
726
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,160
You want to start laying down some tar,
727
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,880
we'll start pounding it out there and then do it overhauling.
728
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:10,720
It'd be great.
729
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,080
You can totally keep them getting bored.
730
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,400
It's going to take like three or four days.
731
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:13,920
Let's do this.
732
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,000
We need to rebuild the carburetor on the car too.
733
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,000
So, exactly.
734
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,480
That's got to hang some new drywall.
735
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:20,480
Let's do this.
736
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:25,600
So, but that's certainly a thing that we can for a second.
737
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,880
And our kids, like, I, what I was going up, Chad?
738
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,440
First of all, I keep, and this is how old I am to my kids.
739
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,440
I couldn't play enough baseball.
740
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,640
I would do anything in the summertime.
741
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,360
I would go out with a wiffle ball by myself
742
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,960
and I would draw lines of chalk on the garage door
743
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,880
and I'd hit the ball to those different lines
744
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,160
to try to get points.
745
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,280
We'd play horse out with the basketball over the garage
746
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,200
and the basketball hoop and we'd try to,
747
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:52,760
but at the same time, my friends,
748
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,800
I would get on our fake BMX dirt bikes
749
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,360
and go down to the school yard.
750
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,160
And if there were only two of us,
751
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:00,720
we'd have one pitcher and one hitter
752
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,560
and we would put trash cans down from second base,
753
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:04,760
like home plate, down second base,
754
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:05,880
all the way to center field.
755
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,360
And you could only hit to the right side
756
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,080
or the left side of those trash cans
757
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,200
or we'd play tennis ball, baseball.
758
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,760
And we were constantly finding things to do.
759
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,880
And I feel like my kids can't do that now.
760
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,920
- Well, I look, you know, say what you want
761
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,920
about electronics, media, the internet, whatever.
762
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,160
Our kids are digital natives from now on.
763
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,600
Most kids, you know, unless there's some giant magnetic pulse
764
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,840
that knocks out all electricity, this is, you know,
765
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:36,840
it's here to stay, right?
766
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,080
Is kids are gonna be digital natives
767
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:43,480
and it's too easy for kids to jump on a device instead of,
768
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,280
hey, let's go outside and be creative
769
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,720
and come up with a game where I only have to hit it
770
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:48,560
to the right side.
771
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:49,760
That doesn't happen anymore.
772
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:50,600
It should.
773
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,440
I think it's a shame that we're not still doing that
774
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:55,440
with our kids.
775
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,880
You know, and I know in our house,
776
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,800
we held that as long as we could, but we gave in.
777
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,680
But there's something to be said for letting your kids
778
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,240
have that imagination and play.
779
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,600
Like I remember when my kids are, I don't know,
780
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:13,600
eight, nine, 10 years old, we had a pet shop,
781
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,200
pet shop, something anyway.
782
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,720
But like these little characters my kids would play with,
783
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,640
they would play for hours and use their imagination.
784
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,360
And I mean, you know, they would set up these elaborate,
785
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,920
I still have videos on my phone of them like playing this,
786
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:30,760
right?
787
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,000
Hey, dad, can I borrow your phone?
788
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,840
I'm gonna make a video of me playing.
789
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,200
Like, yeah, cool, knock yourself out.
790
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:40,040
And so that still existed and that's, you know,
791
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,680
having that imagination, I think that's the,
792
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,440
that's the anti, that's the serum to this, right?
793
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,040
We used to have just Legos, like not a set of Legos,
794
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,320
like not a from a Lego fronze,
795
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:57,160
like, you just had fucking blocks of Legos and you had to make
796
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,200
shit with them.
797
00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:59,200
You didn't know what you were making.
798
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,280
It was all discolored, it didn't match at all,
799
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,680
but you're like, look at this goddamn castle that I made
800
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:04,840
or the Empire State Building.
801
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,320
Yes, it's 18 different colors and none of them match.
802
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:08,440
Why is that floor yellow?
803
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,000
I don't know, that's all I had for bricks
804
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,560
where yellow bricks are right there.
805
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,520
But that's how you made shit and you,
806
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,720
and you kept busy doing it and you actually felt like you
807
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,760
were like accomplishing stuff.
808
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,280
But I feel like, you know, then move into the digital
809
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,080
ages you pointed out, which again, my 17-year-old daughter
810
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,280
at age three when she was on my phone was deleting contacts
811
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,040
from my phone, like she knew how to,
812
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,640
that just scan through stuff, but she's deleting contacts
813
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:35,640
from my phone.
814
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,680
Dad, dad doesn't need to talk to these people.
815
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,880
No idea who they were, but all of a sudden they're gone.
816
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,360
I can't find them anymore.
817
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,680
So I feel like that, you know,
818
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,000
I, there's a plus and minus with all of that,
819
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,360
the plus side is she's so fluent in all that.
820
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,400
It's second nature, there's no intimidation
821
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,840
when it comes to using computers or phones
822
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,000
or any of that kind of stuff.
823
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,120
And it's very helpful to my wife and I when it comes
824
00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,120
to social media and business and all of it's fantastic.
825
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,040
But at the same time, remember Legos jumped on board
826
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,240
for a little while there, where not only were your directions
827
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,120
on how to build the kit through your phone,
828
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,200
like you'd scan a QR code and that's where the directions
829
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,720
where you'd slide through your phone
830
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,040
to see how to build the Lego friends kit.
831
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,120
But then you could also take snapshots
832
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,240
and it would put like a total picture around your Lego kit,
833
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,320
like a scene and then they came out with an app
834
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,680
where you could film a movie with your own.
835
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,680
It was like, it was crazy stuff
836
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,880
that we would never be able to do when we were kids.
837
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,680
But it was all around not allowing your kids in this day
838
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,440
and age to be bored.
839
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,240
And I kind of feel like it's okay for them to be a little bored.
840
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:38,920
It's all right.
841
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,320
They don't need to constantly, I think they need a little downtime
842
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,200
from the constant influx of stimulus
843
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,640
that they see whether it's on the phone or on the TV
844
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:50,880
or anywhere around them.
845
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,120
It's all right to have a little downtime and be a little bored.
846
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:53,960
It's okay for that.
847
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,720
It's okay for parents to do that for a bit.
848
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,120
- So what is the other toxic parenting trend
849
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,760
that I am guilty of on the list?
850
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,360
- Yes.
851
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:04,200
Let's see.
852
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:08,160
First of all, I will say when your kid doesn't go to sleep,
853
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:12,280
it's the worst thing that you can go through as a parent.
854
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,960
When your kid is not sleeping and now you can't sleep
855
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:16,000
and all you wanna do is sleep
856
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:17,640
and you know you can sleep in a second
857
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:18,720
as soon as your head hits the pillow.
858
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,280
But they're not sleeping and you have a conversation
859
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,000
with your other half like, can we give them better drill?
860
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,200
'Cause I mean, they're not sneezing right now.
861
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,200
I thought I heard a little,
862
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,160
it's kinda like she was a little stuffed up.
863
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:33,000
- Yeah.
864
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,080
- 'Cause it looks a little red, maybe I am.
865
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,680
- So, yeah, no one is gonna make him go to sleep
866
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,320
but is that kind of giving him drugs
867
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,480
for no reason other than they try to get him to sleep?
868
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,280
Well, and then welcome into melatonin
869
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,680
and that became a thing for people to do
870
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,000
is to hand off melatonin to their kids.
871
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,880
But then you start to get, the kids get used to that
872
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:54,280
and like any form of a drug, they become,
873
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,000
you know, they build up a tolerance to it
874
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,360
and so you need more and more.
875
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,360
That becomes certainly a scary situation going forward
876
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:01,200
for some of the parts.
877
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,400
I have tried so hard to stay away from that.
878
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,920
I have given my kids melatonin before
879
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:11,440
but it's on like the once in a generalized long time.
880
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:12,800
If it's mainly about nightmares
881
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,680
or if they're having some sort of a problem asleep
882
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,480
that they can't even voice what the disturbance
883
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,840
was in their fearful of something's in their room.
884
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,720
It was when they were smaller.
885
00:34:22,720 --> 00:34:25,240
I've given like half of a melatonin for them
886
00:34:25,240 --> 00:34:27,960
to be able to take it, the kid's melatonin version of it.
887
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,720
But largely as they got older, we'd stayed away from all that
888
00:34:31,720 --> 00:34:32,560
and didn't need to go there
889
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,040
but that was one of the big trends that was happening
890
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:34,880
for a while as well.
891
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,440
So, this is weird.
892
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,120
I have a question for the audience, I think here.
893
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:40,840
- Yeah, when my kids were little,
894
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,400
we used to give them like half an ambion.
895
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,840
- And so, all right.
896
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:46,840
- Yeah.
897
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:47,680
- I thought you were gonna be like,
898
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,920
"Well, we used to dose them up on some heroin."
899
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,920
- Yeah. - Yeah.
900
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,080
- So, maybe-- - No, but it was asleep.
901
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:54,920
- I know, right.
902
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,320
(laughing)
903
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,040
- Well, I didn't look like my mom talks
904
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,840
and I thought it was jokes until I got older
905
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,800
and realized she's not fucking joking about this
906
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,240
but when she was younger and she'd have a cough,
907
00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:08,280
there'd be whiskey involved with some sort of honey
908
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,280
that they would take to kind of suit them
909
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,120
and make them go to sleep.
910
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,840
- Sometimes those legit moms recipe, like, you know,
911
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,760
yeah, that was legit.
912
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,120
- No, not equal is basically pure alcohol.
913
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,560
So, let's just have that in fucking fall asleep
914
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,600
and you'll be crashed out until the next day.
915
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:24,840
Sometimes it's even hard to get up
916
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:25,920
with that kind of a hangover.
917
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:30,600
So, this is one that I have a problem with
918
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,440
but I certainly tell my kids this.
919
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,040
Telling your kids they can be literally anything.
920
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:36,880
- Oh, sure.
921
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,440
- They can go to an Ivy League university.
922
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:39,280
They can be a movie star.
923
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:40,440
They can be an NFL quarterback.
924
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:41,280
They can be the president.
925
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:42,720
All you have to do is dream big.
926
00:35:42,720 --> 00:35:45,720
The trouble is many talented people don't do those things
927
00:35:45,720 --> 00:35:47,920
because of bad luck, not wanting the stress
928
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,440
or simply because there are too few professional football players.
929
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,200
So teaching your kids to work hard
930
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,080
and develop their talents is great
931
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,120
but telling them they can do anything
932
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,640
if they just wanted bad enough
933
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,200
set some up for a major disappointment.
934
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,480
- So, yeah, the, yes.
935
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,160
And I will add to this, you know,
936
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,080
both of us have softball kids
937
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:11,080
and I have seen over the years the drop off of kids.
938
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:16,560
Like, a lot of kids play softball 12, 14 years old
939
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,800
around the 16 new age up to the 18 new age
940
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,560
where there's a drop off of kids who play.
941
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,440
And it really comes down to, I think, this exact thing
942
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,800
where parents are like, oh, you can totally play a D1 school,
943
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:31,920
blah, blah, blah.
944
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:35,160
You know, you're bound to play great softball, right?
945
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,560
And the parents have a delusion about their kid
946
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,480
and they tell them the shit and the kid gets it in their head
947
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,400
but then the kid figures out, you know what,
948
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:44,960
that's a lot of work.
949
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,600
I don't wanna do that work.
950
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,000
And so the difference, the subtle difference here
951
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,280
between telling your kids they can be whatever they want
952
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,280
and doing it the right way as a parent,
953
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,800
at least in my mind and how I've handled it with my kid
954
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,440
is put in the work, put in the work,
955
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,960
I can't put in the work for you but put in the work.
956
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,880
If that is your dream, if that is your goal,
957
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,920
put in your work and I'm happy to drive you to do the work,
958
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,360
I'm happy to be there like catching you
959
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:14,680
if you're gonna be pitching like my kid,
960
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,320
I will be there to support that but you've gotta put
961
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,160
in the work, you don't put in the work, you got no dream.
962
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,120
It's just, it's air, it's nothing.
963
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,920
And so, hey, you wanna do these things, put in the work.
964
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:27,800
That's the difference.
965
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,400
And so yeah, just telling your kid that,
966
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,240
making them think they can be that
967
00:37:31,240 --> 00:37:34,120
and then watching them fail because you set them up
968
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,280
for failure, that sucks.
969
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,120
- Yeah, and I think, and I think the other side of that,
970
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,680
and I think this is equally as important to bring up
971
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:42,960
as you talked about with the hard work.
972
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:47,160
And I can say this because both my wife and I,
973
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:51,960
in the good times and the bad times have followed our dreams
974
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,920
to be what we've wanted to be professionally
975
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,080
and sometimes that's come with a ton of sacrifice.
976
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,520
It's come with not having roots for me working in radio,
977
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,160
having to move all over the country,
978
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,960
to find the next job, to pursue that job
979
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:07,760
in the bigger market.
980
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,720
And so you don't really have friends or roots
981
00:38:10,720 --> 00:38:12,440
that you've set any place.
982
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:16,640
But also, just the acknowledgement that not only is there
983
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,040
the hard work that comes with that,
984
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,920
sometimes the successes aren't always there.
985
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:23,840
And sometimes you have to be prepared
986
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,040
for the failures that come with that.
987
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,880
And they can be overwhelming.
988
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:33,800
So it's if you want to pursue that part of your life,
989
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:37,000
if you want to pursue something that is your dream,
990
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,040
I'm gonna be here to fully support you
991
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:40,320
in whatever that is.
992
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:45,320
But with it, I would always prepare for some sort of a backup plan
993
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:49,160
and something that you can do
994
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,120
when things aren't going well for whatever that profession is
995
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:53,160
because there will be times.
996
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,280
There will be moments when those things happen.
997
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,520
And so it's not just about putting in all the hard work
998
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,240
'cause you can put all the hard work in the world in
999
00:39:00,240 --> 00:39:01,720
and not get the break.
1000
00:39:01,720 --> 00:39:05,720
So you've got to be prepared for what that's going to be
1001
00:39:05,720 --> 00:39:07,800
and how you're going to move forward with that.
1002
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,960
'Cause I'm all for following that dream.
1003
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:11,960
I'm all for being what you wanna be,
1004
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,320
but just realize that in order to do that,
1005
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,360
there's gonna be a number of other things that you have to do
1006
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,120
that other people, your friends, aren't going to have to do.
1007
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:20,800
- Yeah.
1008
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:21,960
- T-shirt, I can't.
1009
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:23,000
I have softball.
1010
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,840
- Yes.
1011
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:25,840
- 100%.
1012
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:26,840
Look at this.
1013
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,680
We're like what, half an hour into this
1014
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:31,720
and we've got two t-shirts already ready to go.
1015
00:39:31,720 --> 00:39:33,400
(laughs)
1016
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,720
Now there's two different things that I,
1017
00:39:35,720 --> 00:39:38,520
one I have a problem with and I'll bring that up secondly here,
1018
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,320
but the free-range parenting element that people had been doing
1019
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:43,760
like when my kids were little,
1020
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,840
which was just basically like let your kids do whatever
1021
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:48,560
the fuck they wanna do.
1022
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,440
We grew up at a time when you didn't have to,
1023
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,280
you can go out and do whatever, we were latch key kids.
1024
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,120
You go out and you do whatever you wanna do as long as you're home
1025
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:56,960
before the street lights come on your end of your shape.
1026
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,480
If you've gotten your homework done and all that kind of stuff.
1027
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,000
But free-range parenting was kind of the,
1028
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:06,600
in my opinion was kind of the forced air to that.
1029
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:07,640
It was like, well, you know, look,
1030
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:08,880
if we did it when we were growing up,
1031
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:09,880
why can't we let our kids do it?
1032
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,520
So we'll just let them do anything that they wanna do.
1033
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:13,880
They will have free reign.
1034
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,240
You've seen some of the schools, like the Montessori schools,
1035
00:40:17,240 --> 00:40:20,480
they're like, there's not a regimented program in place
1036
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:21,800
for them as to what they're going to learn.
1037
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,920
Whatever you want when you go in that day,
1038
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,000
you go and learn it and the teachers will be there
1039
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,560
for whatever you wanna focus on kind of until you're tired
1040
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,240
of it and move on to the next thing.
1041
00:40:30,240 --> 00:40:32,800
Which again, I don't have a problem with that.
1042
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,720
But I do think that there has to be guidelines in place
1043
00:40:35,720 --> 00:40:38,520
and free-range parenting was sort of the anti-guide line
1044
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:39,880
portion of things.
1045
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,040
And I think we've seen, go ahead.
1046
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,880
- I just said the words you're looking for is structure.
1047
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,440
There is a ton of evidence scientific evidence.
1048
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,920
- Yes, kids need structure.
1049
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,120
- Period.
1050
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:53,480
- Hard-stopped period.
1051
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,120
Like, they thrive on it.
1052
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,120
And then that goes from everything from the theory of sleep
1053
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,120
to get sleep and letting your kid kind of cry it out.
1054
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:02,960
Which I always thought was the worst thing
1055
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:04,200
when you have a child.
1056
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:08,200
That's just has been born or is in the first year
1057
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,920
of their life and you're like, I can't stand all the crying
1058
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,280
when we need to get them to go down for their nap
1059
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:14,920
and the time that they're supposed to have their nap
1060
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:16,200
and you're like, just let them cry it out.
1061
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:17,720
I'm like, that's so mean.
1062
00:41:17,720 --> 00:41:18,640
But it works.
1063
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:20,280
And they cry it out and they go to sleep
1064
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,200
and they start to develop their patterns from there.
1065
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,440
That's how this all comes together.
1066
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,360
But it's part of that structure.
1067
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,480
It's part of realizing, there's discipline.
1068
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:30,440
There are things that you have.
1069
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,320
If you're constantly free-ranging,
1070
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,120
you don't necessarily get the ought of discipline
1071
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,400
as something that enters your mind.
1072
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,320
You're not getting punished for doing things.
1073
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,040
It's kind of like either a success or failure,
1074
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,520
but there's no punishment when you're looking at
1075
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:44,800
the way you interact with other people
1076
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:48,560
and how you interact in a society as the case may be.
1077
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,120
I always bring it back to work for my kids.
1078
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:54,840
I'm like, yeah, intellectually speaking here,
1079
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:58,640
do you think that this would work if you were at a job?
1080
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:03,360
So if you were free-ranging at work, people, parents,
1081
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,240
and you had a very specific job,
1082
00:42:06,240 --> 00:42:08,120
I don't know, say you're a nurse, right?
1083
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,560
And you're a free-range nurse.
1084
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:12,160
I'm pretty sure you're not going to be a nurse
1085
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,560
at whatever particular place you're working very long
1086
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:15,760
if you're free-range.
1087
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,160
Right, there's a specific set of things you have to do.
1088
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,560
You got a little patience, paper, blah, blah, blah.
1089
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,760
Anyway, that free-range, bad.
1090
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,520
You have free-range brain surgeon.
1091
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:28,360
That's not going to happen.
1092
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:29,520
That is not, that is.
1093
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,800
Yeah, let me just climb around in the sky's brain
1094
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:32,960
for a while so it's there.
1095
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,080
And I'm going to go eat a snack while I'm doing it.
1096
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,280
Who says I got to get this thing all stitched up
1097
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:38,200
and closed up quickly?
1098
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:39,040
We're having fun.
1099
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:39,840
Let's get at this.
1100
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,600
Watch what I can make him do with his left hand.
1101
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,840
Let's check this out.
1102
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:45,160
Exactly, yeah, folks.
1103
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:46,040
So--
1104
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:47,120
And then we'll arrange that.
1105
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:48,320
The last thing I want to put out there,
1106
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:51,440
and I've sort of tried to rally against this
1107
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:52,880
for the most part of my kids because I've
1108
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,440
seen other parents do this with their kids, which is the not
1109
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,720
making your kids do things because you didn't like to do them
1110
00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:01,120
when you were their age.
1111
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:03,240
Like, I don't like to clean my room.
1112
00:43:03,240 --> 00:43:04,480
I didn't like to do it when I was a kid.
1113
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,680
Well, you also have a messy fucking house right now.
1114
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:10,520
So I don't like walking into your stinky house
1115
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,240
because you don't like to clean because you had to clean
1116
00:43:13,240 --> 00:43:15,200
when you were younger, when you were a kid.
1117
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,800
There's a reason why all that happened on just a basic health
1118
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:24,280
level, but sanitary functions being able to breathe
1119
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,160
in one's home, not walking in where there's mold.
1120
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:28,560
I mean, there's all kinds of things in there.
1121
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,000
So if you didn't like it, I'm sorry.
1122
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:31,360
You didn't like cleaning.
1123
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:33,440
But there's a reason that people do it.
1124
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,040
There's a reason that when you go to a restaurant
1125
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,280
or you go to a dining establishment,
1126
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:39,200
they have to keep it placed clean.
1127
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,840
What if they were pissed that they had to keep it so clean?
1128
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,160
When their parents owned a restaurant, now they're like,
1129
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,440
"Fuck it, we're just going to keep this place filthy."
1130
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:50,400
That's what puts the guy who goes in and rescues the bars
1131
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:51,400
and rescues the restaurants.
1132
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,400
It's put him in business because he goes in there
1133
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,520
and he's like, "What's with the rats running around your kitchen?"
1134
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,040
"Oh, my parents made me get rid of the rats when I was a kid,
1135
00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,800
so I don't like to do that anymore.
1136
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:01,400
I'm going to let the rats run around here."
1137
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,240
Well, you're fucking going to be closed down.
1138
00:44:03,240 --> 00:44:05,880
So I think that there's a point where you didn't like it
1139
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,640
and I appreciate that, but I think you can still explain
1140
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:10,760
to your kids what it was you didn't like about it
1141
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,080
and how it can be done differently
1142
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,160
so that the same result is there.
1143
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:18,960
The place is clean, it's tidy, it's sanitary,
1144
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:22,320
it's not, you know, there's no mold around the place.
1145
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:26,280
Those, I grew up with 16 fucking cats in my house, Chad.
1146
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:27,800
- Yeah. - 16 cats.
1147
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,440
It wasn't even a house.
1148
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,440
It was a kitty litter box with a chimney.
1149
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:32,800
That's what I grew up in.
1150
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,960
And you can't clean that.
1151
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:36,640
That's uncleanable.
1152
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:38,880
That's a, you fucking have to raise that building
1153
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,160
is what you have to do.
1154
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,720
So that's, I burn it.
1155
00:44:42,720 --> 00:44:45,600
I, yeah, and I so like, I'm not gonna go tell my kids,
1156
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,960
hey, I hated having to clean up cat shit
1157
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:49,680
because my mom wouldn't do it.
1158
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:51,440
So I'm not gonna make you do it.
1159
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,720
Like, you have to be able to explain the situation
1160
00:44:54,720 --> 00:44:57,520
and put it into terms where the result is still there.
1161
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,920
You don't, you don't want to raise an entire generation
1162
00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:01,360
of kids who think they don't have to do anything
1163
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:02,600
because they don't like it.
1164
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:03,880
That's not what this is about.
1165
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,160
Again, it goes back to work.
1166
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,400
It goes back to functioning in society
1167
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,560
but there's got to be a way that you're still going
1168
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,160
to interact with others at some point.
1169
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:13,000
And guess what?
1170
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,240
You're gonna have to do shit you don't like to do.
1171
00:45:15,240 --> 00:45:16,840
- Oh, 1,000%.
1172
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:21,000
That's especially when those people become parents
1173
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:22,480
and then they realize, oh shit,
1174
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,680
I'm the only one who is here to change my kids a diaper.
1175
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:26,520
- Yes.
1176
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:27,360
(laughing)
1177
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:28,200
- God.
1178
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:29,960
- You've got to be honest.
1179
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,040
I'll fucking, I will tell everyone
1180
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:33,080
I'm pointing at the camera here.
1181
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,480
I will tell every one of you new dads right now
1182
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,680
is scared as you are about changing
1183
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,560
a shitty diaper for your kids.
1184
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:44,000
As frightening as that seems,
1185
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,040
whatever it's gonna be, whatever you've built up
1186
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,040
to be in your imagination.
1187
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:52,960
There is not a better bonding moment with your child
1188
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,280
than cleaning that diaper.
1189
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:56,720
Looking at them in the face,
1190
00:45:56,720 --> 00:45:59,360
singing to them, talking to them when they're tiny
1191
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,480
and they're giggling and they're kicking,
1192
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,160
there is not a better bonding moment.
1193
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:05,920
So for all your boys,
1194
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,320
I don't wanna have to clean a dirty diaper.
1195
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:09,160
Fuck off.
1196
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,000
So you've got a kid now and go enjoy it.
1197
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,920
That's a moment in all of that diaper changing.
1198
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:16,440
You're never going to get back.
1199
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:20,080
So go and be a parent and let that be a point
1200
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,200
where you've got the ability to bond with your kid
1201
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:23,480
instead of making it this.
1202
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:27,240
- I refuse to do it because I don't wanna get my hands dirty.
1203
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:29,360
- Two things, one, preach it brother.
1204
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,240
Two, changing a diaper allows you
1205
00:46:32,240 --> 00:46:35,280
when they're teenagers and/or at their wedding.
1206
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:36,120
(laughing)
1207
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,840
You have to tell them, hey, you know what,
1208
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:40,360
I used to wipe your ass.
1209
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:41,200
- Yes.
1210
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:42,480
- It's a grime in them.
1211
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,200
Fuck them, you can tell their new found us.
1212
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:46,040
- What friends?
1213
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,320
- Or you want to be a very dead wedding.
1214
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,160
- Yeah, you know, I'm a dad.
1215
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,320
I'm gonna make a speech and I'm gonna say in the speech,
1216
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:55,520
yes, I remember when I used to wipe your ass.
1217
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,560
I mean, that's-- - Remember when you had that time
1218
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,120
that the shit exploded out of your diaper, do you remember?
1219
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:01,200
'Cause I remember that.
1220
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:02,200
I was there.
1221
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:03,640
I had to clean that up.
1222
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:05,280
- Do you remember that time on the airplane
1223
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,320
where I caught all of your vomit in a blanket?
1224
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:08,240
Yeah, that was me.
1225
00:47:08,240 --> 00:47:09,240
That was me.
1226
00:47:09,240 --> 00:47:12,280
- Remember when you were running around on the water pad
1227
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,600
in your bathing suit and you just shit yourself
1228
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:15,800
right there in the middle of it?
1229
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:16,800
'Cause I remember that.
1230
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,120
I was there for that.
1231
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:18,960
- I was there.
1232
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:19,800
- Yeah.
1233
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:20,800
- So those are great moments folks,
1234
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,760
is to be able to relive those later.
1235
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:26,200
So like my buddy here, Bauer San,
1236
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,600
absolutely 1,000% do it.
1237
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:33,600
Because later on, that's comedy gold, that's all I'm saying.
1238
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,320
It's comedy, but it's bonding too.
1239
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:36,800
And you're not-- - You're not, you're not--
1240
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:37,800
- Guess what you're not serious.
1241
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:38,640
- That's the serious reason.
1242
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,480
- You're not gonna get that anyplace else.
1243
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,160
So take it for what it's worth
1244
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,240
and don't be such a Sally about the shit part of it.
1245
00:47:46,240 --> 00:47:47,160
Just deal with it.
1246
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:48,000
You're gonna be a grown,
1247
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,160
you're gonna have so much more to deal with.
1248
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:51,520
You're gonna have so much more now.
1249
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:53,440
- Oh, just like 'til they're teenagers.
1250
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:54,600
- Yes, yes.
1251
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:56,000
(laughing)
1252
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,400
Wait 'til you find out they've got a Snapchat account
1253
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,080
and what they're fucking putting out there.
1254
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,760
Then you can start to worry.
1255
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,120
But now, just clean a diaper or two, bro.
1256
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:04,960
- No, it's easy.
1257
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:06,880
- It's simple, it's simple, it's basic.
1258
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:07,800
- Clean it up.
1259
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:09,520
- Yeah, nothing wrong with that.
1260
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,720
All right, we're getting ready to take a break here
1261
00:48:11,720 --> 00:48:12,560
when we come back.
1262
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,240
The things that our parents did in the 1980s
1263
00:48:15,240 --> 00:48:16,480
when we were growing up,
1264
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:17,920
you can get away with now.
1265
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:19,640
I don't think you can get away with it now.
1266
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:21,920
I wouldn't suggest trying to get away with it now.
1267
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:23,360
And I would think that most people,
1268
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,040
I'm looking back on it, at least two or three of these things
1269
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:27,160
should have been illegal.
1270
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:30,560
My dad should be--
1271
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:31,720
- I'm sure.
1272
00:48:31,720 --> 00:48:33,800
- On Alcatraz still, because--
1273
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,720
- Honestly, I'm surprised.
1274
00:48:36,720 --> 00:48:40,040
- You could find some, there's some serious,
1275
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,240
like the child protective services
1276
00:48:42,240 --> 00:48:43,840
would have something to say about this shit.
1277
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,240
- Yeah, I'm surprised I'm not dead from lung cancer, to be honest.
1278
00:48:47,240 --> 00:48:48,080
I mean--
1279
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:49,840
- Right after that, the amount of times.
1280
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:53,720
Number one on the list, there must have been friends
1281
00:48:53,720 --> 00:48:57,160
that we had that never survived because of this.
1282
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:01,240
There has to be, or are now like incapacitated.
1283
00:49:01,240 --> 00:49:02,080
And you know what I mean?
1284
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:02,920
Like--
1285
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:03,840
- Yeah, oh yeah.
1286
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,080
- All right, we'll talk about what those things were
1287
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:07,920
in the '80s and how they could never,
1288
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,960
absolutely never happen again these days
1289
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,200
when we were turning here on the dad's own podcasts.
1290
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:15,800
(upbeat music)
1291
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:22,120
- This is this is a clearly, clearly not
1292
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,320
metrosexual moment, moment in history.
1293
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:26,320
Crazy horse.
1294
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,600
Celebrated for his ferocity and battle,
1295
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:32,480
Crazy horse was recognized among the Lakota Indians as a visionary leader.
1296
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:36,480
In 1876, the US War Department ordered all Lakota on the reservation
1297
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,000
and Crazy Horse, he didn't say, "Let's share.
1298
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,200
"Let's hold hands and sing kumbaya."
1299
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:42,960
He became a leader of the resistance.
1300
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,880
Further more he wrote in a battle on an angry Steve,
1301
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,800
not some pansy automobile, like a BW bug or a PT cruiser.
1302
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:53,400
Crazy horse famously said, "My lands are where my dead lie buried."
1303
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:55,360
A famous metrosexual once said,
1304
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:58,200
"My lands are where my prod alofers await purchase."
1305
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,240
Different round today, Crazy Horse would kick that guy's ass.
1306
00:50:01,240 --> 00:50:03,840
This has been Lee Camp for more funny crap.

Ready for the hottest and menopausal entertainment.
1314
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,680
Prepare yourself for church women gone wild.
1315
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:21,840
Direct from St. Josephine's bake sale.
1316
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:23,120
They're crazy.
1317
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:24,480
They're out of control.
1318
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,080
Faith cancels, church women gone wild.
1319
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:29,520
It's all the girl on girl, knee high stocking
1320
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,240
in barricose veins you can stand
1321
00:50:31,240 --> 00:50:33,480
from the holy water wet t-shirt contest
1322
00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,120
to accepting sacraments in their granny pennies.
1323
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,800
Church women gone wild are off their neilers and other knees.
1324
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:41,960
To please, for God.
1325

Order now, church women gone wild, 1099 for the DVD.

2499 for only the audio.
1327
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,800
Seriously, that's kind of creepy and gross.
1328
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:54,440
Too dirty for the Vatican, too h etto for the priesthood.
1329
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:56,200
It's church women gone wild.
1330
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,640
Once this is over, you'll pray for forgiveness.

(upbeat music)
1333
00:51:03,660 --> 00:51:08,600
Welcome back to the dad's own podcast.
1334
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:13,480
Still to come, try to capture the whole
1335
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,520
of parenting in one social media post.
1336
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:21,520
And you think the worst parent of the year, 20, 25 contests
1337
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:26,000
is getting ready to wrap up all notes
1338
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:26,840
is heating up my breath.
1339
00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:29,560
We are officially in March.
1340
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,480
So when you start looking at bracketology,
1341
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,760
we're ready to get into the parenting
1342
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,600
that is the worst of 20, 25.
1343
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:40,000
And this may be, as I take a look at this chat,
1344
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,080
and I might be wrong, we'll have to discuss this further.
1345
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:45,360
I think we're getting pretty close to this being
1346
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:48,280
the end of the 20, 25 entries
1347
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,000
because we are, we are that close to starting the brackets
1348
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:52,600
in the comments. - Yeah, time to throw them in the brackets.
1349
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:53,840
- Yeah. - Yeah.
1350
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:57,720
We'll have to get the interns to create
1351
00:51:57,720 --> 00:52:01,240
this little bracket chart with all the parents on it.
1352
00:52:01,240 --> 00:52:02,200
- Yes, yes, yes.
1353
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:03,840
And by interns, you mean the sweatshop kids?
1354
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,040
I had told that. - That's yeah.
1355
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:07,920
- 'Cause I think that that's, we're close.
1356
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:08,760
We're there.
1357
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:10,120
We're ready to start working on these brackets
1358
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:11,960
and formulating who's the worst of the worst.
1359
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:16,120
And so today may be one of the last entries that we have.
1360
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,320
So it'll be that important when you start thinking about
1361
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,640
who really gets cast as the worst parent of 20, 25.
1362
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:24,560
This entry could mean something that's desperately important,
1363
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:26,840
not just to the space available,
1364
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:30,240
but then who are they gonna be taking on down the road
1365
00:52:30,240 --> 00:52:33,120
and really walk away as the champ of the worst parent of 20, 25.
1366
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:39,520
All right, that said, our parents, they didn't know,
1367
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:43,040
I'm gonna give them this, they didn't know any better.
1368
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,280
The technology that they had wasn't nearly the technology
1369
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,400
that you and I have had while our kids,
1370
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:52,280
seniors in high school, our eldest, our, our,
1371
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:53,800
we've been growing up, right?
1372
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,280
The technology has been far and away improved for them
1373
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,040
compared to when we were growing up.
1374
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:02,640
And that is proven by some of the parenting techniques
1375
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,720
that we went through, we saw, we were a part of
1376
00:53:05,720 --> 00:53:08,160
where we saw some friends go through,
1377
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:11,440
but understanding what the parenting life was like
1378
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,000
in the 80s and what we had to deal with as kids.
1379
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,920
How did we survive that, Chad the dad?
1380
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,200
I don't know, only your mustache can tell.
1381
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:22,360
But let's take a look at some of the things
1382
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:24,640
that we could never get away with now.
1383
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:26,880
Not only could we never get away with it.
1384
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,280
In a lot of these cases, I'm gonna say in the handful
1385
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,640
of them, we could be cited and ticketed.
1386
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:35,400
We could, we could have, you know, we could have,
1387
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:36,600
- We could have a record, so I say,
1388
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:37,760
- We could have a record.
1389
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:41,480
- Yes, you could have in any given state,
1390
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,480
you could have people chasing you down
1391
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:47,400
for treating your kids poorly by doing some of these things.
1392
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,880
And this was just normal parenting in the 80s.
1393
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,720
This was every day, every kid on your block,
1394
00:53:52,720 --> 00:53:56,280
on my block did this because their parents had them do this.
1395
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:57,760
So I'll start with the number one,
1396
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,680
which I don't know how I didn't die.
1397
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:04,440
I don't know how I didn't end up with more brain injury
1398
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:09,440
than I currently have, but we had seatbelts.
1399
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:14,080
I mean, the seatbelts nowadays, you've got the strap
1400
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,680
that comes across the chest, it securely fits in there.
1401
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:17,920
It's got, you know, it's got a knife,
1402
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,040
you could adjust the height so that, you know,
1403
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:21,920
it comes across the shoulder at the right place
1404
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:22,760
and across your chest.
1405
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:24,840
You're not choking people out on the neck.
1406
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:26,840
There's all kinds of, we didn't have that
1407
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,840
in my dad's 1976 Ford Pinto wagon
1408
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:31,640
with the fake paneling on the side.
1409
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:35,880
We had one belt that strapped across your waist,
1410
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,000
and that, you had to cinch that up
1411
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,280
so that you could sit into place relatively safely,
1412
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,960
but dad and mom never really cared about it.
1413
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,640
It was not a big deal.
1414
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:46,480
- No.
1415
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:47,720
- Well, it was not law.
1416
00:54:47,720 --> 00:54:48,720
- No.
1417
00:54:48,720 --> 00:54:49,560
- Right.
1418
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:50,720
- And God knows.
1419
00:54:50,720 --> 00:54:52,400
- Yeah, we absolutely rode around like that
1420
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:53,240
without seatbelts.
1421
00:54:53,240 --> 00:54:56,120
I mean, I can't tell you even, I remember very clearly
1422
00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:58,720
like when the law changed and my parents were like,
1423
00:54:58,720 --> 00:55:00,400
seatbelts, fuck that.
1424
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,520
I mean, like seriously, like I remember,
1425
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,600
like you know, as a kid, you're like,
1426
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:06,680
oh, well, they changed the law,
1427
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:07,920
I gotta wear seatbelts now, right?
1428
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:09,960
Like, I gotta be a rule follower
1429
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:10,880
and my parents are like,
1430
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:12,600
(blows raspberry)
1431
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:13,440
(blows raspberry)
1432
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:14,280
- Yes.
1433
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:15,440
- They're like shut the fuck up.
1434
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:16,480
That's what they wanted to say.
1435
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:17,880
That's what they wanted to say to you.
1436
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:18,920
(laughs)
1437
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:20,080
They wanted to go, hey, you know what?
1438
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:21,080
The seatbel thing?
1439
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:22,400
- Shut the fuck up.
1440
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:23,480
- Thank you.
1441
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:24,320
We haven't needed it.
1442
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:25,160
We didn't have it.
1443
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:27,440
We didn't even have seatbelts when we were kids.
1444
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:28,440
- Yeah. - So, look, that's right.
1445
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:29,280
- I'm alive.
1446
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:34,600
- Not only that, but if you had the family wagon,
1447
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,760
you didn't even have seatbelts in the back of the wagon.
1448
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:38,760
Where everybody was supposed to sit,
1449
00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:40,040
it was like built for the kids.
1450
00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:41,200
There was bench seating,
1451
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,640
depending on how big the station wagon was,
1452
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,240
for you to sit with a bunch of your friends
1453
00:55:45,240 --> 00:55:47,400
where everybody's knees were kind of knocking together
1454
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:52,000
in the center there, but it was like a u-shaped seating arrangement
1455
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,360
and there wasn't a damn belt in any of those places.
1456
00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:55,760
Certainly no kind of a harness.
1457
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:58,440
It was just you, not only that,
1458
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:00,680
we're about riding in the back of a truck.
1459
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:01,880
- Oh, God. - People just used to ride
1460
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,600
in the back of a truck without any belts there.
1461
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:08,160
They had a fucking car called a Subaru Brat
1462
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:12,000
that had seats in the back of the truck.
1463
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:13,880
With no seat, they had handles.
1464
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,160
You could hold on to the handles like you were in a fucking
1465
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:20,040
circus ride, but they didn't have any seatbelts for you.
1466
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:23,120
So any belts in the row, you're bumping out of the back
1467
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:25,520
of the truck, you're catching air.
1468
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:28,120
And that was like a selling point
1469
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:30,520
was that they had seats back there for you to sit
1470
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:32,320
in the back of the Subaru Brat.
1471
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:36,440
So Jesus, I don't know how more of us didn't die
1472
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,400
from that Chad than any of these.
1473
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:43,400
- Some of us did, but yeah, probably a lot less these days.
1474
00:56:44,240 --> 00:56:48,400
You would guarantee it summertime.
1475
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:51,360
You would see at least, I would say once a week,
1476
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,320
if I try to average it out, one person driving around
1477
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,760
with, by the way, not obeying any speed limit
1478
00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,600
whatsoever in a neighborhood,
1479
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,720
with their truck and a dog in the back of the truck,
1480
00:57:02,720 --> 00:57:04,840
like just bouncing around as well.
1481
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:06,440
Like you'd say, how did I-
1482
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,520
- I live in Texas, that should happen today.
1483
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,440
- Jesus, still that's happening, Texas is a good point.
1484
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,440
(laughing)
1485
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:15,520
- Not just a dog, like you got a family of dogs.
1486
00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:17,720
- Look, they got the puppies in the back too, that's great.
1487
00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:18,560
That's fun.
1488
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:23,080
I'll bring this up because I saw it again
1489
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,400
in the bird cage, the smoking around kids.
1490
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:26,400
That wasn't a problem.
1491
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:27,240
They didn't have a problem.
1492
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,840
You could get on a fucking plane, a tube in the air
1493
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:33,480
with very little ventilation and just light up a heater
1494
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:37,520
on the flight to across country with kids here.
1495
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:40,080
- I can't tell you how many, how many days,
1496
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:43,960
hours, months, weeks that I spent in a car.
1497
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:45,480
So I'm gripping Colorado, right?
1498
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:49,320
Winter time, cold outside, windows are up.
1499
00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:52,240
Parents smoking in the car, windows closed.
1500
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:56,000
Which, like why I haven't died of lung cancer
1501
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,760
at the point of my life is in mystery.
1502
00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:02,520
But yeah, like I remember so clearly,
1503
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:05,640
like just being like, oh god damn it, you're gonna smoke again.
1504
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:08,840
I'm like, you're trying to hold my breath
1505
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,200
for as long as possible and like, you know,
1506
00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:14,160
breathe like maybe there was fresh air under the seat
1507
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:16,400
for me, because I didn't wear a seatbelt
1508
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:17,720
so I could climb under the seat.
1509
00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:18,560
- You could be right down the seat.
1510
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:20,320
- I'm gonna be trying to breathe some of that fresh air down there.
1511
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:21,720
- Just to add to that a little bit,
1512
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,200
and the way that the cars were built back then,
1513
00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:25,600
not everybody had air conditioning.
1514
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,000
Air conditioning was a luxury for a lot of people
1515
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,840
in the late 70s and early 80s.
1516
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:33,200
And so you would be lucky in my dad's board, Pinto,
1517
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:35,600
that he would roll down the window a little bit.
1518
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:36,800
Yeah, actually roll it down.
1519
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:38,720
You didn't have a button you pressed the roll down,
1520
00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:40,880
you had to actually, with the crank,
1521
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,560
turn the crank to roll your window up or down
1522
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,000
depending on how it went,
1523
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,040
or if you were lucky enough to be a kid in the back seat,
1524
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:49,680
while mom and dad were smoking,
1525
00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:51,960
they didn't even have a window that you could roll down
1526
00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:53,720
that these little pop out windows,
1527
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:55,120
they would look like a lock,
1528
00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:57,880
and it would give you about a maybe an inch and a half
1529
00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:00,000
worth of space for air to come in.
1530
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:01,000
- Not even that.
1531
00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,160
- Three quarters of an inch if you're lucky.
1532
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:05,760
- Yeah, so that was the fresh air that you were getting.
1533
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:07,160
And what that actually did is,
1534
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:08,720
if they didn't roll their window down the front,
1535
00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:10,800
it just blew the smoke that would go,
1536
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:12,280
the air would come in through the back windows,
1537
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,920
go to the front and blow the smoke right back to you.
1538
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:16,720
(laughing)
1539
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:19,160
- Yeah, the, what those were were vents for the smoke
1540
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,520
from the front of the car to come to the back of the car
1541
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:23,520
where you were to go out those windows.
1542
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,320
So as you're sitting there like trying to suck
1543
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,080
some fresh air out of that little three quarters
1544
00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:29,360
of an inch, just like,
1545
00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:31,480
you're basically all you're doing is just breathing the smoke
1546
00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,720
that was killing, you know, exiting the vehicle.
1547
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,480
- And yet every year, as I watch planes, trains,
1548
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:38,960
and automobiles and John Candy like that car on fire
1549
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:40,360
with his cigarettes in,
1550
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:43,920
I never have stopped to think about God, that's exactly what,
1551
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:45,880
you know, it could have been that kind of danger
1552
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:48,240
that we were going in with our parents who were like,
1553
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:50,760
I love you, but I gotta have my Virginia Slim.
1554
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:51,600
So.
1555
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:53,480
(laughing)
1556
00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:56,360
- Yeah, I don't love you as much as I love my Virginia Slim.
1557
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:57,560
- I love my Virginia Slim.
1558
00:59:57,560 --> 00:59:59,200
- Plants, like a lot more.
1559
00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:02,320
I mean, like, you're, I'll see you when I go to put you to bed
1560
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,320
and we'll have time, but I gotta have this Virginia Slim,
1561
01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:05,720
you know, because of you right now,
1562
01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:06,560
that's what I have to do.
1563
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:08,360
- Right, I'm sure that's why.
1564
01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:12,600
- Again, we, we grew up at a time where we were latch key kids.
1565
01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:14,760
So our parents seemingly didn't give a shit,
1566
01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:18,480
like as long as you could get to your house and open the door,
1567
01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,280
or you maybe, you know, as I started to get older,
1568
01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:23,040
they'd put a key hide it someplace, right?
1569
01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:25,400
They'd have one of those fake rocks in the yard
1570
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:26,680
that had a key hidden in it,
1571
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,320
or they'd have the magnetized thing under the car,
1572
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:30,840
or wherever for you to be able to get the key,
1573
01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:32,320
so you could open the door and get it.
1574
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,680
But early on, it was just, everything was unlocked,
1575
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:36,680
good to go, just like getting the house,
1576
01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:38,680
and then go do what you wanted to do.
1577
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:41,040
Logging's like, got your homework done, you're good to go.
1578
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:44,600
Just be back before the lights go out on the street.
1579
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,440
- You could do so much shit.
1580
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:50,000
We never did, like we just were playing baseball all the time,
1581
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:51,160
I never did.
1582
01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:55,720
- It's, that's the 80s version of free range parenting,
1583
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,600
really, and it was just all pretty.
1584
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:00,960
- Yeah, it was, yeah, it was called parenting, like that.
1585
01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:02,520
(laughing)
1586
01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:06,000
But yeah, that unsupervised time really allowed us
1587
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,040
to have this level of creativity,
1588
01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:10,120
and like, you know, making up the game,
1589
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:11,600
these around baseball, or like, I mean,
1590
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:13,000
I can't say how many hours we played,
1591
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:14,480
kicked the can, right?
1592
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:16,720
Summer time, we're out of school,
1593
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,240
all the kids in the neighborhood get together,
1594
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:20,720
play that shit for hours.
1595
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:22,040
- Yeah, hours and hours and hours.
1596
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:24,840
- On you, it was like a stick and a rock,
1597
01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:26,440
and I would hit that like it was a baseball.
1598
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:29,160
We would find shit to do.
1599
01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:32,480
But that said, your parents were nowhere to be found.
1600
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:33,320
- Yeah.
1601
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:34,920
- They were working, they were doing something.
1602
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:36,200
They weren't following you,
1603
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:38,240
they weren't taking you to a park and watching you on a
1604
01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:39,400
child-lay date.
1605
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:40,960
Like that didn't happen.
1606
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:42,720
- Child care was not an industry back then.
1607
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:44,360
(laughing)
1608
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:46,760
- No, the only time you had a sitter
1609
01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:49,120
was when your parents were going out to like, you know,
1610
01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:51,040
there was some sort of a Christmas party
1611
01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:52,520
for the company or dad worked at,
1612
01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:55,200
and you didn't have a sitter every day of the week,
1613
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:56,040
or you know what I mean?
1614
01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:59,040
Like there was nobody to take you and to make you,
1615
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,520
I had to make myself lunch or make myself
1616
01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:02,520
on my brother lunch.
1617
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:04,400
There was nobody there to do any of that.
1618
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:05,640
We had to do all of that.
1619
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:08,600
So that was the thing that got me like,
1620
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:11,560
they could just, your parents could just
1621
01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:12,600
fucking abandon you.
1622
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:13,880
And they felt like, all right,
1623
01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:15,960
please not gonna kill himself will be in good shape.
1624
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:17,840
And I don't know what that test was.
1625
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:18,680
I don't know where it was.
1626
01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:20,600
We're like, okay, seems like,
1627
01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,640
I mean, we have a fire escape plan in place,
1628
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:25,760
and we're on a, I mean, it's a ranch, it's a one story.
1629
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:26,600
You're not going any place.
1630
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:27,840
We have a fire escape in place.
1631
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,400
He's had earthquake drills at school.
1632
01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:30,240
He's good.
1633
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:31,080
Let's just let him do it.
1634
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:32,080
All good.
1635
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,320
I mean, there was so many things that could go wrong,
1636
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:35,600
but didn't.
1637
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:39,680
And somehow the fact that my parents were never around,
1638
01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:41,520
and we could do whatever we wanted,
1639
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,440
that's, I don't think that could happen these days.
1640
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:45,280
You would never see anything like that happen.
1641
01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:46,480
We just got to play day.
1642
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:49,080
We just got to be at the park at some place with a nanny
1643
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:50,760
or somebody else's parents.
1644
01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:52,280
And then you got to meet their parents there
1645
01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:53,480
and you got to have coffee.
1646
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:55,320
And then you can only play for a certain amount of time
1647
01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:57,320
before you get them to the next big event.
1648
01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:58,520
I didn't have any of those events.
1649
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:00,000
I played little league and that was it.
1650
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:01,280
That's all that ever happened.
1651
01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:03,120
So what I hear you saying,
1652
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:06,520
Bauer is that you were longing for the old days
1653
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:08,800
where you could just give your kid a key
1654
01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:11,320
and just tell him to do whatever the fact they want.
1655
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:12,840
And you don't have to worry about it.
1656
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,080
It's so weird because when my kids were little,
1657
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:16,520
I couldn't even think about that.
1658
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,440
I couldn't be like, just come back with the lights.
1659
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:20,280
Come on.
1660
01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:21,680
There's no way.
1661
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:22,840
You imagine saying that.
1662
01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:23,680
You're seven.
1663
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:24,680
You don't know what that means.
1664
01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:26,720
I couldn't ever say that to Charlie.
1665
01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:28,200
I couldn't say that to Lucky Noun.
1666
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:29,520
She's going to be 11 this week.
1667
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:32,200
I could never just be like, just come back with the lights.
1668
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:33,040
Come on.
1669
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:34,040
I don't care who's house.
1670
01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:35,840
I don't know where you are.
1671
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:36,840
Don't even know.
1672
01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:37,840
Try it.
1673
01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:38,840
Just try it.
1674
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:39,840
Tell her, tell her.
1675
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:41,000
Just get out of the house.
1676
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:41,840
Don't come back to the lights.
1677
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:42,840
Come on.
1678
01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:43,840
In the street.
1679
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:44,840
You imagine it.
1680
01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:46,640
Holy shit.
1681
01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:48,280
I don't need to know where you are.
1682
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:49,560
Who's house you're at.
1683
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,160
I don't give a fuck just as long as you come home.
1684
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,280
Or you've got to be close enough to hear me yell down the street.
1685
01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:56,720
So that when you hear me,
1686
01:03:56,720 --> 01:04:00,800
the dinners ready, then you know to come and be right here.
1687
01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:05,840
That's all you, that was the only responsibility you had.
1688
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:06,840
Oh, the ladies.
1689
01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:09,240
How do we survive that?
1690
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:10,240
Spanking is a discipline.
1691
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:11,240
I don't even think we need to go in there.
1692
01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:14,440
There's nobody who's doing anything like that.
1693
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:15,440
Wow.
1694
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:19,400
Okay, not, not disciplining my parent, my children, but, you know,
1695
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:20,880
between being Paula, we'll just--
1696
01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:22,280
Totally different scenario.
1697
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:24,120
That goes back to the it and how you cure the it.
1698
01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:26,320
Just a little, a little spank here.
1699
01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:27,320
And there's nothing bad.
1700
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:30,200
It's not, it's not.
1701
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:33,920
We see this a lot on the worst parents of the year
1702
01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:36,400
when we bring those stories in here,
1703
01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:40,240
but sitting on a kid sitting on a parent's lap while they're driving.
1704
01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:41,760
That's how I learned how to drive.
1705
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:42,920
I mean, it's so much--
1706
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:43,920
Oh, God.
1707
01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:45,360
Well, I mean, exadurate.
1708
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:46,360
So, but I--
1709
01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:47,360
You were six.
1710
01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:48,360
I remember getting it.
1711
01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:49,360
I was 16, said on my dad's lap.
1712
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:51,440
It was fun.
1713
01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:54,080
No, but I mean, I remember being seven, eight, nine years old,
1714
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,240
like, you know, my dad let me drive.
1715
01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:57,240
Like--
1716
01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:58,240
Yeah.
1717
01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:01,160
I remember we lived on this, like, long road
1718
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:04,600
that was all uphill to our house.
1719
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:09,560
And I was maybe, I don't know, 11, 12, 13 years old.
1720
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:12,000
And I'd be like, yeah, come on, dad.
1721
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:14,080
And so, yeah, he'd let me sit on his lap.
1722
01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:16,760
And I, you know, we drive up the hill.
1723
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:18,920
I get to drive, like, on the road.
1724
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:19,920
No, so--
1725
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:20,920
Yeah, I was--
1726
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:23,960
I mean, dangerous as fuck, I'm sure.
1727
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:24,960
Sure.
1728
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:25,960
I can't even think about it.
1729
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:30,120
And I will say, probably driving back then a little different
1730
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:33,200
than it is today, the vehicles weren't as sophisticated.
1731
01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:36,720
People didn't drive 75 miles an hour on a 25 mile an hour.
1732
01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:37,720
It was a--
1733
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:38,720
Good point.
1734
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:39,720
Well, I mean, like they do here in Texas, but--
1735
01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:42,200
Well, you couldn't drive 75 miles an hour anyway.
1736
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:43,200
Yeah, that's true.
1737
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:44,200
Like, car seat.
1738
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:46,480
Yeah, and cars really didn't ever go that fast.
1739
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:48,560
You couldn't, you know, you'd have to spend a lot of money
1740
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:50,000
on a core van or some shit.
1741
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:52,400
Or you'd have to have some really old-school big engine
1742
01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:53,680
Mustang, anything to do.
1743
01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:55,240
And it'd be able to make that work.
1744
01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:55,920
Yeah.
1745
01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:59,880
Yeah, so yeah, that was never a--
1746
01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:02,080
Anyway, so yeah, that's how I--
1747
01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:03,520
I did that as a kid.
1748
01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:04,360
Yeah.
1749
01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:06,160
I will add just a couple of other quick ones here
1750
01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:08,320
before move on, because we're going to have to get to some tweets
1751
01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:11,280
or posts technically, because we're going to dive into a little bit
1752
01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:14,680
of a blue sky to try to find some parenting posts
1753
01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:15,960
that we think are good.
1754
01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:17,240
Helmets.
1755
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:20,440
You can't see kids without helmets doing anything these days.
1756
01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:24,280
Be it skateboarding, skiing, riding bikes,
1757
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,400
they've got to have helmets for everything.
1758
01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:28,960
And we--
1759
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:31,000
If you had a helmet when we were growing up,
1760
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:32,000
it was because you were--
1761
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:32,800
There was something wrong with you.
1762
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:34,120
There was something wrong with you.
1763
01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,360
[LAUGHTER]
1764
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:38,280
I mean, wrong to say, but that's the truth.
1765
01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:38,480
Like you do.
1766
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:39,680
It's the truth.
1767
01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:44,080
That's how we knew those kids were.
1768
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:45,520
Because all the rest of us were all like,
1769
01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:47,400
why does Dave have a helmet?
1770
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:49,080
Oh, shit, that's Dave?
1771
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:50,160
That's Dave.
1772
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:51,000
Oh, damn.
1773
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:52,000
OK.
1774
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:54,040
He must have been riding in the back of Dad's station,
1775
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:55,800
why are you going to get--
1776
01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:58,560
himself for trying to get the fresh air out of the seat.
1777
01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:01,320
Holy shit.
1778
01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:02,720
There used to be a time.
1779
01:07:02,720 --> 01:07:05,160
I know that's impossible to think of nowadays,
1780
01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:07,520
because we've got television shows and movies,
1781
01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:10,800
and I swear to God, I opened Instagram the other day,
1782
01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:15,320
and just saw a woman breastfeeding her kid on Instagram.
1783
01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:18,280
And I didn't turn away.
1784
01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:21,600
I'm just saying, there used to be a time
1785
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,440
when people just fed their kids baby formula.
1786
01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:27,240
My mom always talked about there was never
1787
01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:31,200
the concern about breastfeeding, like there is nowadays.
1788
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:34,320
And it was just all baby formula exclusively,
1789
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:37,240
like not even-- and sometimes you barely got baby formula.
1790
01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:39,280
As soon as you were able to eat solid foods,
1791
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:41,280
you were boom, you were transitioned right in there.
1792
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:43,840
You were done with any kind of formula,
1793
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:47,840
which is, I think, why I love steak so much these days.
1794
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:49,280
Ribs.
1795
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:50,960
There was eating ribs at eight months.
1796
01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:51,800
I don't know.
1797
01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:53,600
But I do think that that is something
1798
01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:57,800
that you would, again, you would get literally called out.
1799
01:07:57,800 --> 01:08:00,520
You would be-- you would get yourself--
1800
01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:01,200
You're in top of--
1801
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:02,000
Oh, my god.
1802
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:03,000
For real?
1803
01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:05,880
You would get your address and socials put out there.
1804
01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:07,840
If you weren't breastfeeding your kid,
1805
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,680
you would become the center of a commute.
1806
01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:12,720
If they could burn you at a steak like a witch,
1807
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:14,600
because you weren't breastfeeding your kid,
1808
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:18,040
you would be burned at that steak.
1809
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:18,640
Truth.
1810
01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:23,520
You would be Rebecca Nurse at the Salem Witch Trials, holy shit.
1811
01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:25,920
And then the last one was--
1812
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:29,760
And again, I say it's because I'm definitely concerned about it.
1813
01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:32,920
And we've seen so many bad stories that have happened
1814
01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:35,600
since the time that my 17-year-old daughter's been born.
1815
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:37,480
But it used to be a time--
1816
01:08:37,480 --> 01:08:39,840
Chad, nobody cared if you left your kid in the car.
1817
01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:42,520
Parked.
1818
01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:44,040
Gross restored.
1819
01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:44,840
Oh, come on.
1820
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:46,720
Yeah, I know that happened.
1821
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:48,800
I got left in the car, for sure.
1822
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:49,480
Yeah.
1823
01:08:49,480 --> 01:08:51,280
I don't have any distinct memories of it.
1824
01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:53,200
But yeah, if you left your kid in the car today,
1825
01:08:53,200 --> 01:09:01,080
just sit there, the car running, or not, either way.
1826
01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:03,400
Back then, people wouldn't blink at night.
1827
01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:04,840
It's like, oh, yeah, I did that yesterday.
1828
01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:05,680
Yeah.
1829
01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:06,520
Today?
1830
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:08,880
Yeah, the police would be there when you came out of the car.
1831
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:11,640
Someone in that-- someone had just pulled into that parking lot
1832
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:12,440
and saw the--
1833
01:09:12,440 --> 01:09:13,600
I mean, they do with dogs.
1834
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,040
They see an animal or something alive in that car.
1835
01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,480
They will break the window to try to rescue them.
1836
01:09:18,480 --> 01:09:20,480
Like, the kid was sleeping.
1837
01:09:20,480 --> 01:09:22,600
I mean, there have been times, as a parent,
1838
01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:25,280
I'm sure you have experiences, too, where you pull up.
1839
01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:29,480
You get home from a long road trip, or maybe it's even just
1840
01:09:29,480 --> 01:09:33,120
from the kids have gone jumping at the trampoline place
1841
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:34,840
and you're driving home in a few minutes.
1842
01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:37,680
You know, when I go to the bar, then I let him leave him in the car.
1843
01:09:37,680 --> 01:09:38,360
You at the casino?
1844
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:38,880
I know.
1845
01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:40,640
You're going to be there for a minute.
1846
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:42,080
Yeah, leave him in the car and I come home
1847
01:09:42,080 --> 01:09:43,080
and there are sleepers.
1848
01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:45,960
I give him a bottle of melatonin to play with for a little bit.
1849
01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:46,800
We're all good.
1850
01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:47,640
Who needs it?
1851
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:49,000
I mean, you can shake it around, right?
1852
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,360
What's the worst can happen?
1853
01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:54,320
But you get home and they're asleep and you're like,
1854
01:09:54,320 --> 01:09:55,080
they haven't nap.
1855
01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:56,400
They need to nap.
1856
01:09:56,400 --> 01:09:58,040
I'm going to let them sleep in the car.
1857
01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:01,160
I'm going to-- if it's a summertime and leave in the AC,
1858
01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:03,000
I'm going to go up in the house.
1859
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:04,400
I'm going to check on them every five minutes.
1860
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,480
I'll make them my way around, make sure they're still there.
1861
01:10:06,480 --> 01:10:09,360
But I'm going to let them sleep in the car because they need to sleep.
1862
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:11,880
And I've done that numerous times.
1863
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:14,200
And even to the point where I've maybe even for an hour,
1864
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:15,560
they sleep in the car and then I go down.
1865
01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:18,400
All right, I'm going to wake them up and bring them back in.
1866
01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:20,600
And that's why you pull into the garage and shut the door,
1867
01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:22,080
leaving with the car running.
1868
01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:25,920
I mean, obviously, so evil.
1869
01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:27,480
So evil.
1870
01:10:27,480 --> 01:10:29,160
You're really sure they're getting that down.
1871
01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:30,920
You know they're getting their nap at that point.
1872
01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:31,440
And they are.
1873
01:10:31,440 --> 01:10:32,920
That's definitely getting that down.
1874
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:35,200
Definitely getting their nap at that point.
1875
01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:36,720
And the last thing I'll just throw out there
1876
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:39,360
that I never took part in, never wanted to take part in.
1877
01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:41,520
But when we were growing up, wasn't a problem?
1878
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:42,760
Go hitchhike.
1879
01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:45,720
Give yourself a ride out there by thumbing it.
1880
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,160
The thumb out there, get yourself hitchhike,
1881
01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:49,320
get yourself a ride to wherever you need to get to.
1882
01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:50,200
No big deal.
1883
01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:53,480
Somebody, I'm sure a nice person will drive by in their car
1884
01:10:53,480 --> 01:10:54,960
and see you there on the side of the road
1885
01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,880
and just pick you up and take you wherever you need to go for nothing.
1886
01:10:57,880 --> 01:10:59,080
No gas money, no nothing.
1887
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:00,640
Just go ahead and hitchhike your way there.
1888
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:02,080
No, you would not.
1889
01:11:02,080 --> 01:11:03,840
That doesn't happen now.
1890
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:05,400
It's gas, grass or ass.
1891
01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:06,440
Nobody rides for free.
1892
01:11:06,440 --> 01:11:06,960
Come on.
1893
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:08,160
I think I've seen that bumper sticker.
1894
01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:09,480
I think I did see that bumper sticker.
1895
01:11:09,480 --> 01:11:11,920
It was very, very highlighted in the 1980s.
1896
01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:13,680
So it was a different time.
1897
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:15,440
And these are all outdated practices.
1898
01:11:15,440 --> 01:11:18,120
You would never see anybody do these days.
1899
01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:20,600
And I think in most of those cases,
1900
01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,040
like if you do call the police.
1901
01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:24,280
That's good to say.
1902
01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:25,800
Someone's getting cited.
1903
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:27,680
Child protective services will be called,
1904
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:29,400
you will be any one of those things
1905
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:30,880
you will be investigated for.
1906
01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:33,000
Seriously investigated for.
1907
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:34,920
And then we'll come down and they will question you.
1908
01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:35,840
They will question your kid
1909
01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:37,760
and then we'll question your neighbors all about you.
1910
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:40,280
So good luck with that being there.
1911
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:41,600
Look Mark this episode folks.
1912
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:43,600
This is going to be valuable to you someday.
1913
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:44,440
Yeah.
1914
01:11:44,440 --> 01:11:46,920
When we come back, we'll try to see if we can encapsulate
1915
01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:49,600
the what it takes to be apparent here these days,
1916
01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:52,040
these days, not in the 80s, but these days.
1917
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:55,920
What it takes to be apparent by digging deep into
1918
01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:58,720
what it's like to post on social media.
1919
01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:00,680
And exactly what they share with us.
1920
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:02,080
And we talk about parenting next
1921
01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:04,200
for the post parenting post of the week
1922
01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:05,520
during the dad's home podcast.
1923
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:06,600
-Penic A channel.
1924
01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:07,760
-What is up?
1925
01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:09,800
-It's the second annual male group
1926
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:11,560
of the 4G competition.
1927
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:15,000
And he hits the hole right after Jesse opens it up.
1928
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,840
-What are your host, John Madden and Pat Summeral.
1929
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,640
-And then everyone's kind of slopping around down there
1930
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:22,240
and grunting and groaning.
1931
01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:24,240
You know, you get mud and stuff flying
1932
01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:27,640
and gang battles and scrums and quagmires.
1933
01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:29,320
-No fems, fats, or herries.
1934
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:33,720
Just the hunkiest gay studs and wild group action competition.
1935
01:12:33,720 --> 01:12:35,680
-I like to pack that bear round too.
1936
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:37,640
-Don't get carried away, John.
1937
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:40,400
-There were all kinds of stuff flying around their body.
1938
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:42,640
-It's male group sex to die for,
1939
01:12:42,640 --> 01:12:46,120
as described by the best play by play team in the biz.
1940
01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:47,480
-Yeah, that was the right one.
1941
01:12:47,480 --> 01:12:49,880
That one didn't come and didn't come and didn't come
1942
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:51,920
and finally they threw it out of there.
1943
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:52,920
-Woop.
1944
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:54,520
-I don't know where that one came from.
1945
01:12:54,520 --> 01:12:56,160
Look at that big old boy.
1946
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:57,160
-What a meal.
1947
01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:58,800
Those guys are having a good.
1948
01:12:58,800 --> 01:12:59,800
That's a good group.
1949
01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:01,960
-If you go nuts for tight bots.
1950
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:03,600
-You push, you push, you push.
1951
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:05,360
-Get gay purview today.
1952
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:06,840
-You just rode in backwards.
1953
01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:08,280
-You just went right on his back.
1954
01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:10,560
-Would pat some roll and John Madden.
1955
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:13,960
-That looked like it was the last shot out of the Roman candle.
1956
01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:18,160
-The second annual male group orgy competition on gay purview.
1957
01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:20,680
-I like to pack that bear round too, boy.
1958
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:21,200
Yeah.
1959
01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:23,480
-He's got a fire into his guy right here.
1960
01:13:23,480 --> 01:13:28,120
-Call 1-800-Hey, cutie, the order today.
1961
01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:30,640
-A naked man mingles freely in a locker room.
1962
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:32,000
It's the Onion Radio News.
1963
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:33,240
I'm Doyle Redland.
1964
01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:38,600
Bali Total Fitness Patron Fred Lippman, age 42, took an after-shower stroll today.
1965
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:41,200
Casually greeting numerous men in the locker room.
1966
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:44,800
His flaccid penis and talcumputtered scrotum in plain view.
1967
01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:49,400
He socialized for approximately 15 minutes in a state of total undress.
1968
01:13:49,400 --> 01:13:53,440
The buck naked Lippman then went on to sit in the most visible spot in the locker room
1969
01:13:53,440 --> 01:13:58,520
and apply anti-fungal cream to his feet before finally putting on a towel.
1970
01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:00,640
Doyle Redland for the Onion Radio News.
1971
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:29,440
Online at the Onion.com.
1972
01:14:29,440 --> 01:14:33,640
You ever seen adults get a phone call from one of their parents?
1973
01:14:33,640 --> 01:14:35,760
You think it was a debt collector?
1974
01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:37,760
-That's my mom.
1975
01:14:37,760 --> 01:14:54,520
-I know you took care of me for a quarter of a century, but now is not a good time.
1976
01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:57,720
-You know what, wasn't a good time giving up my dreams?
1977
01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:03,040
-So you could be a general disappointment.
1978
01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:06,040
-Back to episode number 308 of the Dad's Home Podcast.
1979
01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:07,040
I'm Bauer.
1980
01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:09,520
That is Chad the Dad.
1981
01:15:09,520 --> 01:15:13,040
All right, so we've got to get to some selections here, Chad.
1982
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:14,440
I hope you're ready to make some decisions.
1983
01:15:14,440 --> 01:15:19,160
I hope you're going decisive right now, unlike our parents in the 1980s.
1984
01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:26,000
So we've got four possibilities for us to sort of encapsulate the parent post of the
1985
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:28,160
week, if you will.
1986
01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:30,160
Are you ready to take a look at them?
1987
01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:31,160
Let's go.
1988
01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:32,160
Bring it.
1989
01:15:32,160 --> 01:15:33,160
Here we go.
1990
01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:40,200
The number one, the first one we're going to look at here comes to us from Pagan Drew
1991
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:43,480
Friend, a three-year-old daddy shoots people.
1992
01:15:43,480 --> 01:15:44,480
My husband, huh?
1993
01:15:44,480 --> 01:15:45,480
Five-year-old?
1994
01:15:45,480 --> 01:15:47,320
No, he gives them shots.
1995
01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:51,280
My husband is the family medicine doctor.
1996
01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:52,280
Daddy shoots people.
1997
01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:53,280
Daddy shoots people.
1998
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,800
There's another T-shirt right there.
1999
01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:57,560
It makes sense, right?
2000
01:15:57,560 --> 01:16:01,320
He's giving shots and they get easy to see how a three-year-old could get kind of confused
2001
01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:02,320
by that eye-short light.
2002
01:16:02,320 --> 01:16:04,120
Shot being the past tense.
2003
01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:05,920
Kids paying attention in school.
2004
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:06,920
Yeah.
2005
01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:07,920
So there's our first entry.
2006
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:09,200
Second entry comes to us from Pagan.
2007
01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:13,760
My son calls Donuts Happy Bagels and I will never refer to them as anything else now.
2008
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:17,040
I mean, they are Happy Bagels, right?
2009
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:18,040
Come on.
2010
01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:19,360
Something about that.
2011
01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:20,960
Happy stomach, Happy Bagels.
2012
01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:21,960
Yes.
2013
01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:22,960
Pagan knows.
2014
01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:25,040
How about this one from Bacon Popsicle, which I just love the name?
2015
01:16:25,040 --> 01:16:30,000
My daughter just asked for nunchucks for her birthday and I have to say, "I'm 50% proud,
2016
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:32,960
30% amused and 100% terrified."
2017
01:16:32,960 --> 01:16:35,520
I mean, there's some truth in there.
2018
01:16:35,520 --> 01:16:36,520
Those are not math.
2019
01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:42,480
Those are not math, those are not math, those are not math, those are odd numbers to use.
2020
01:16:42,480 --> 01:16:43,480
But it makes...
2021
01:16:43,480 --> 01:16:46,240
I feel like, "Yeah, I could feel that way too."
2022
01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:50,040
Especially she's excited about the nunchucks, so that's really going to get...
2023
01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:53,680
Dad, I watched a Bruce Lee movie and I need some nunchucks for my birthday.
2024
01:16:53,680 --> 01:16:54,680
Right.
2025
01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:56,680
I can bring me a ninja star.
2026
01:16:56,680 --> 01:16:58,640
That'd be awesome too.
2027
01:16:58,640 --> 01:16:59,960
It's kind of falls in line.
2028
01:16:59,960 --> 01:17:03,240
And then lastly, number four.
2029
01:17:03,240 --> 01:17:07,320
So the woman in Old Navy who just whispered, "Are you fucking kidding me to her toddler laying
2030
01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:08,440
on the floor screaming?
2031
01:17:08,440 --> 01:17:09,840
I see you.
2032
01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:10,840
I am you."
2033
01:17:10,840 --> 01:17:11,840
Oh, shit.
2034
01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:14,640
Parenting, the honesty.
2035
01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:16,640
I hate to go back to the...
2036
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:17,640
Good word.
2037
01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:22,640
Do you use in place of fucking front of your kids?
2038
01:17:22,640 --> 01:17:24,640
Oh, good question.
2039
01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:26,640
I use the word "fuck."
2040
01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:29,640
So follow me for more parenting tips.
2041
01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:30,640
Yeah.
2042
01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:36,440
Shucks, fuck off, fucking devil, make over, fucking devil, make.
2043
01:17:36,440 --> 01:17:37,440
Yes.
2044
01:17:37,440 --> 01:17:38,440
Yes.
2045
01:17:38,440 --> 01:17:40,280
This one, I feel like is...
2046
01:17:40,280 --> 01:17:44,760
Like, I get the donut happy bagel thing that works.
2047
01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:46,400
I get that, I like that.
2048
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:51,200
The nunchucks is scary, but this one I think is the most relatable because even though not
2049
01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:56,960
all of us have been in the woman's shoes whose whispering, "Are you fucking kidding me?"
2050
01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:57,960
To the toddler.
2051
01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:02,000
We've all said that at some point when it comes to our kids.
2052
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:06,160
It didn't have to be an old day, if you didn't have to be on the floor, but we've said
2053
01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:07,920
that, we've felt that before.
2054
01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:09,760
But we've all seen that too.
2055
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:10,760
We've all...
2056
01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:11,760
Yeah, thousands of people.
2057
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:12,760
...in that place.
2058
01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:14,760
And we're like, "Yeah, I see you.
2059
01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:15,760
I am you."
2060
01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:17,760
It is a parenting mantra.
2061
01:18:17,760 --> 01:18:18,760
It most certainly.
2062
01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:21,160
So do you feel like that's our winner or a fourth time?
2063
01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:23,600
Yeah, but yeah, the by-a-large margin.
2064
01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:24,600
That is...
2065
01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:26,120
I see you, I am you.
2066
01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:27,120
Yeah.
2067
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:28,120
You know what?
2068
01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:29,120
I'm going with it.
2069
01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:31,640
I did like the ninja star, I mean, the nunchucks.
2070
01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:32,640
Nunchucks was solid, but...
2071
01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:35,640
...get a pass on the nunchucks.
2072
01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:37,760
Gonna go with the I see you, I am you.
2073
01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:38,760
And again, just the...
2074
01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:42,800
I imagine, because every old Navy looks the same on the inside, right?
2075
01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:43,800
They got the concrete floor.
2076
01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:49,120
Yeah, just seeing somebody kind of bend over and whisper, "Are you fucking kidding me?"
2077
01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:50,120
You can picture it.
2078
01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:52,120
And you can picture it in your head, absolutely.
2079
01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:56,120
And I've got all the different levels of drama that come with it, like...
2080
01:18:56,120 --> 01:18:59,560
Like this, this year exhaustion, like, "Are you fucking kidding me?"
2081
01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:02,560
But then it also can be the drawn out, like...
2082
01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:04,560
I've been trying to prevent...
2083
01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:06,080
I tried to get you to eat lunch.
2084
01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:07,080
You wouldn't eat anything.
2085
01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:08,880
I knew there was going to be a low blood sugar.
2086
01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:11,720
Are you fucking kidding me?
2087
01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:16,480
Like you see every element of what that could be played out there in the old Navy.
2088
01:19:16,480 --> 01:19:17,480
And mommy needs a life.
2089
01:19:17,480 --> 01:19:19,760
Thank you very much for encapsulating that for us here.
2090
01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:21,920
Oh, the dad's own pockets.
2091
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:22,920
Chef's kiss.
2092
01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:23,920
There it is.
2093
01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:24,920
All right.
2094
01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,520
Speaking of Chef's kiss, we've got three.
2095
01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:28,520
Okay.
2096
01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,120
I had a fourth, but I want to...
2097
01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:33,080
It was more of somebody commenting on a video.
2098
01:19:33,080 --> 01:19:35,200
I'm going to try to find the original video.
2099
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:36,200
Yes.
2100
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:37,200
Okay.
2101
01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:38,200
That's what I wanted to see.
2102
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:42,160
The commenting was good, and it did have some still shots to it, but I want to find
2103
01:19:42,160 --> 01:19:43,160
the actual video.
2104
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:44,680
And that might be our last entry.
2105
01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:46,760
So I'm going to try to do that for next week's show.
2106
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:47,760
A play in.
2107
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:48,760
Sure.
2108
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:52,960
We've got three that I want to take a look at here today and find out from you who you
2109
01:19:52,960 --> 01:19:57,600
think worst parent possibility for 2025, maybe.
2110
01:19:57,600 --> 01:19:58,600
All right.
2111
01:19:58,600 --> 01:19:59,600
All right.
2112
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:00,600
Here we go.
2113
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:02,600
Let's start with Nappy Time and our first entry to today's...
2114
01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:03,600
Look.
2115
01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:06,480
It's a young couple passed out on the beach.
2116
01:20:06,480 --> 01:20:08,400
Copsay, they had too much to drink.
2117
01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:09,400
What's up, Ness?
2118
01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:10,400
Cher's office.
2119
01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:11,400
Time to wake up.
2120
01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:13,400
But they don't budge.
2121
01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:15,400
Beer cans are littered around them.
2122
01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:16,400
Oh.
2123
01:20:16,400 --> 01:20:17,400
Yep.
2124
01:20:17,400 --> 01:20:18,400
Time to wake up, guys.
2125
01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:19,400
Hey.
2126
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:21,560
Even shaking them doesn't help.
2127
01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:22,560
Cher's office.
2128
01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:23,560
Wake up.
2129
01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:27,520
Finally, the two arise from their drunken stupor.
2130
01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:31,680
But this isn't just a case of knucklehead spring breakers on Daytona Beach.
2131
01:20:31,680 --> 01:20:34,720
These are parents, and their two young kids are missing.
2132
01:20:34,720 --> 01:20:36,520
Do you guys have children with you?
2133
01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:38,960
Neither seems too concerned about the kids.
2134
01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:40,320
So cops ask again.
2135
01:20:40,320 --> 01:20:41,320
Hey.
2136
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:42,320
We're kids.
2137
01:20:42,320 --> 01:20:43,320
We're right here.
2138
01:20:43,320 --> 01:20:46,560
But the five and seven year olds are nowhere to be seen.
2139
01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:49,480
The guy heads to the water's edge to take a look.
2140
01:20:49,480 --> 01:20:53,160
It was a 911 caller who first alerted authorities.
2141
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:58,120
The lady, I guess her boyfriend gave her like four shots, and she passed out.
2142
01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:01,120
And she asked the little kids, now they're both passed out.
2143
01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:02,120
And it is about himself.
2144
01:21:02,120 --> 01:21:03,120
They're over there.
2145
01:21:03,120 --> 01:21:08,160
The city's placed the couple in handcuffs and charged them with child neglect.
2146
01:21:08,160 --> 01:21:09,520
Mom swears up a storm.
2147
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,360
And the cops here are in the police.
2148
01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:14,400
Send how we both go to the jail.
2149
01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:16,600
And the guy makes a really stupid move.
2150
01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:20,160
He takes off running with his hands, copped behind his back.
2151
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:24,960
He doesn't get very far, face planting right into the sand, and knocking himself out.
2152
01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:27,960
I thought, everyone's knocked him out.
2153
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:28,960
Really?
2154
01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:29,960
And partly gets me out.
2155
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:30,960
He's really good.
2156
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:35,880
Is that he's like, is if your dad was not bad enough that he got drunk and let you guys
2157
01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:37,600
just go away.
2158
01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:42,040
But then after mom's handcuffed and put in which they had to keep air brushing her
2159
01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:46,240
ass out, because apparently the phone is just riding there at the beach.
2160
01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:49,480
They get her loaded, but did you notice that too as the sheriff?
2161
01:21:49,480 --> 01:21:54,240
Because the sheriff's a kindhearted individual wants to make sure she's getting into the vehicle.
2162
01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:56,040
As you see here, she's getting put in the vehicle.
2163
01:21:56,040 --> 01:21:58,880
She's got her hand right on her ass.
2164
01:21:58,880 --> 01:22:01,480
And she's helping her get into the vehicle.
2165
01:22:01,480 --> 01:22:02,480
Right there.
2166
01:22:02,480 --> 01:22:04,480
It's all happening right there.
2167
01:22:04,480 --> 01:22:09,200
Yeah, so hey, look, usually they like to put it on your head so you're not banging your
2168
01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:10,720
head into the top of the truck.
2169
01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:15,280
No, this woman's got to step up into a truck and she's pushing her with the ass into the
2170
01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:16,280
vehicle.
2171
01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:17,960
I just want to put that out here.
2172
01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:23,000
So this the screenshot here too, like I think even more telling than the cops hand on
2173
01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:25,720
the ass is the dude's tattoo on his chest.
2174
01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:26,720
Yes.
2175
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:28,760
He's got a cross presumably.
2176
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:29,760
Yeah.
2177
01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:33,640
And he's got those are like baby footprints on his chest.
2178
01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:34,640
Yes.
2179
01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:36,240
So dad here is like, oh, you know what?
2180
01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:38,440
I'm a good Christian and I love my child.
2181
01:22:38,440 --> 01:22:39,440
Right.
2182
01:22:39,440 --> 01:22:41,560
I'm not the one who's in the car at the beach.
2183
01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:47,180
Drunk off our ass to pass out and we let our kids wander off and I took like all of that.
2184
01:22:47,180 --> 01:22:50,360
And then I'm wondering to myself, you know, we were talking about the eighties.
2185
01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:54,520
Perhaps for these time travelers did they come from the eighties?
2186
01:22:54,520 --> 01:22:56,560
Just I'm asking for a friend.
2187
01:22:56,560 --> 01:23:00,280
I don't know if anybody in the eighties had the barefoot print tattoo.
2188
01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:01,280
Oh, good point.
2189
01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:02,280
There.
2190
01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:03,280
Okay, so that's the anyway good day.
2191
01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:04,280
Good.
2192
01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:05,280
Good.
2193
01:23:05,280 --> 01:23:08,640
I would say even early why 2k was probably when that kind of made its popularity there.
2194
01:23:08,640 --> 01:23:09,640
Get on.
2195
01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:10,640
All right.
2196
01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:11,640
But again, you're right.
2197
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:15,000
Because then he, you know, his move is to let me show you what kind of a good Christian father
2198
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:16,480
I am by movie.
2199
01:23:16,480 --> 01:23:19,720
He takes off running with his hand, probably hiding back.
2200
01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:25,120
He doesn't get very far face planting right into the sand and not dumb ass.
2201
01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:26,120
All right.
2202
01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:27,120
So that's it.
2203
01:23:27,120 --> 01:23:28,120
Number one.
2204
01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:29,120
Next.
2205
01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:31,120
Next is it is going to get better than this?
2206
01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:35,480
Let's swipe right and see what happens in street number two.
2207
01:23:35,480 --> 01:23:39,720
Here you see a family out in the yard looking up at their roof while you see a phone calling
2208
01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:45,400
it's way down the roof.
2209
01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:46,400
Look at that.
2210
01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:51,720
That's not that's not even like a five year old like that.
2211
01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:56,880
That's maybe a year old child at two tops tops.
2212
01:23:56,880 --> 01:24:00,160
Able to walk in a diaper down the side of the roof.
2213
01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:04,800
No parent, by the way, notice is no they're all waiting for the toddler to come to them.
2214
01:24:04,800 --> 01:24:10,120
No one's running up to go to the roof to get the child and to get the roof.
2215
01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:12,840
The eve of the roof is hanging over the parent's head.
2216
01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:16,840
It's not, it's not, you know, low like it's at their chest or something like it just grabbed
2217
01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:17,840
them up.
2218
01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:21,260
They have to go get a ladder to be able to get this toddler off the road chair to get the
2219
01:24:21,260 --> 01:24:25,240
toddler off the roof of the tall guy going there like come to daddy, come to daddy.
2220
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:26,240
Let me grab you.
2221
01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:28,480
How did you get on the roof in the first place?
2222
01:24:28,480 --> 01:24:30,360
How did the toddler end up on the roof?
2223
01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:31,360
There is.
2224
01:24:31,360 --> 01:24:36,440
Oh, the saved them.
2225
01:24:36,440 --> 01:24:37,440
Yeah.
2226
01:24:37,440 --> 01:24:38,440
Well, and it's interesting.
2227
01:24:38,440 --> 01:24:44,080
So, and no judgment here, but clearly this is a different culture based on the language.
2228
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:45,080
Right.
2229
01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:49,280
Maybe, maybe babies on the roof in that particular culture is good luck.
2230
01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:50,680
Oh, you know what you're saying?
2231
01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:51,680
I see what you're saying.
2232
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:52,680
You know, right?
2233
01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:55,840
Hey, look everybody, there is a toddler on the roof.
2234
01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:57,680
We're going to have five years of good luck.
2235
01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:02,720
Singing life to your family in that home is the toddler walking down, scaling down the
2236
01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:04,200
side of a roof.
2237
01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:05,880
Or maybe it's a tradition, right?
2238
01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:10,200
When the child becomes 18 months old, you throw them up on the roof and see if they can walk
2239
01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:11,200
down.
2240
01:25:11,200 --> 01:25:12,200
If they can't.
2241
01:25:12,200 --> 01:25:17,200
And if they live, yes, if they stay up there, they're going to leave a normal, healthy life.
2242
01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:20,000
If they die, they fall off and die and break their neck.
2243
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:21,160
Well, that was just meant to be.
2244
01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:23,240
They weren't, yeah, survival of the fittest.
2245
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:24,240
Okay.
2246
01:25:24,240 --> 01:25:25,240
Let's get to this.
2247
01:25:25,240 --> 01:25:26,240
We have survival of the fittest.
2248
01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:27,240
Let's get to number three here.
2249
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:33,200
Again, as parents, we've all had wagons, even I had one of the radio flyer wagons growing
2250
01:25:33,200 --> 01:25:34,200
up when I was a kid.
2251
01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:35,200
Am I brother and I?
2252
01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,480
We have one that we haul shit to the top of the hills.
2253
01:25:37,480 --> 01:25:38,480
Yes.
2254
01:25:38,480 --> 01:25:44,000
We used to push each other around in that wagon just going down our driveway, not very hard
2255
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:45,000
all.
2256
01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:47,040
That's not an end Olympics.
2257
01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:53,840
Kind of the same as this down a giant hill where the kids are in the wagon, dads, videoing.
2258
01:25:53,840 --> 01:25:55,000
Watch out for that tree.
2259
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:56,000
What tree?
2260
01:25:56,000 --> 01:25:58,000
This one right here.
2261
01:25:58,000 --> 01:25:59,000
Boom.
2262
01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:03,000
Oh, my God.
2263
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:04,000
I will.
2264
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:05,000
I will.
2265
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:06,000
I will.
2266
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:07,000
I will highlight this now.
2267
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:08,000
I've just listened.
2268
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:10,640
Try not to laugh over when you hear the crash.
2269
01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:12,120
Listen to the dad's laugh.
2270
01:26:12,120 --> 01:26:17,080
And again, I'll just point this out for everybody who's ever heard us talk about this.
2271
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:21,480
There is not a moment dad is running over to help these kids even after they smash them.
2272
01:26:21,480 --> 01:26:25,600
They're coming down a gigantic hill in a park in a runaway.
2273
01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:32,640
collapsible wagon not even a good old fashioned radio flyer made a steal this is a collapsible that is
2274
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:37,680
and that legit that's the same one that we haul shit to the softball fields win listen
2275
01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:45,040
dad laughs at the end there
2276
01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:58,880
I mean okay so okay did the kids die this is my first question did the kids die okay so I don't
2277
01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:05,520
believe so I think I'd be a different video we'd be watching right now this one is is truly
2278
01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:11,760
comedy gold though like okay there's a lot of dumb assery happening in this video for sure yeah
2279
01:27:12,560 --> 01:27:18,560
however like a couple good things happen one they all ask down this thing there is a road that they
2280
01:27:18,560 --> 01:27:25,600
go over that slows their cart down so they're not going at like you know maximum velocity when
2281
01:27:25,600 --> 01:27:34,640
they hit the right here right here yeah it's like it's like the road the gravel road is up above
2282
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:40,800
it's a little lifted so they have to hit this bump like the dukes of hazard first and then like
2283
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:45,920
they're jumping over a creek in hazard county they start to go over this thing and then that's
2284
01:27:45,920 --> 01:27:51,120
when they land on the other side and boom hit the tree yeah and then the thing just goes up ends
2285
01:27:51,120 --> 01:28:00,160
and then dad laughs I mean dad look I mean call me evil but dad's not wrong laughing at that that's
2286
01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:06,160
funny shit I've been looking this looking I will just say this look at his kids yeah there's no
2287
01:28:06,160 --> 01:28:14,320
one the fun is little yeah they're four five I don't know maybe maybe I could I could be convinced the
2288
01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:19,680
one in the middle might be one of the back might be four this could be like a three and four
2289
01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:23,680
year old the other thing I love about this too and I'm not sure if that they're holding in the
2290
01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:29,040
the bar that you haul the car around with yeah the hand yeah I'm not sure if they're thinking
2291
01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:33,600
that that's something they can actually steer with or they know they right or they know if they
2292
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:39,200
let go it's gonna then catapult the cart right because it'll fall down the cart will stop suddenly and
2293
01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:46,080
out they go yeah I don't that's now look in the good old days when I had my radio flyer the steel
2294
01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:51,920
radio flyer that actually had like rubber tires on it it did and you turn you could turn with that
2295
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:55,520
handle you could use it to go left or right or whatever you want it if you made a real quick turn
2296
01:28:55,520 --> 01:29:00,240
you could flip right over right sure you would have missed the tree is what this would right you would
2297
01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:04,560
steer well again I didn't really I'm thinking it three years old I wasn't really the best driver
2298
01:29:04,560 --> 01:29:11,360
coming down the hill at what appears to be called twenty miles an hour on a very heightened grass hill
2299
01:29:11,360 --> 01:29:15,280
with a lot of bumps and then we're going straight into a tree so I don't know that I would have been
2300
01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:19,840
able to avoid said tree I'd like to think I could but I'm not that skilled a driver but in this
2301
01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:23,680
particular case it didn't matter that they were holding a handle because that hell is not doing
2302
01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:27,680
anything the wheels are all wobbly to begin with that things going it's got a mind of its own
2303
01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:34,080
frankly it does and again when the kids do grab the hit road like a duke the hazard and then
2304
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:41,680
crash into the tree that is not running over to see if they're okay that is in for a second like
2305
01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:49,200
did junior in the front separated break his arm break his arm do we know did he get a cut illustration
2306
01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:55,280
over his eye we have no idea I mean he did go pretty he went ass over Sunday in the when the
2307
01:29:55,280 --> 01:30:00,960
thick when the wagon hit the tree the back end went up because of course he he he front weighed it like
2308
01:30:00,960 --> 01:30:09,920
the heavier kid was right towards the point nobody was so I got to say though of these three I do have
2309
01:30:09,920 --> 01:30:16,560
a definite like you suck the most parent are you do you feel like you have a clear cut indication of
2310
01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:21,200
which the which one of these would be the worst parent of twenty twenty five of these three
2311
01:30:21,840 --> 01:30:27,680
for me it would be the eighties time traveler in the first video like the that guy that is
2312
01:30:27,680 --> 01:30:35,760
that is that is girl yeah that guy call it is the drunk because here's the thing by the
2313
01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:40,240
transition story we still don't know where the kids are we have no idea that's okay
2314
01:30:40,240 --> 01:30:45,520
well we presumably they are we don't know they still could be missing that's good they could be
2315
01:30:45,520 --> 01:30:51,040
on a milk carton right now for all we know they could be a part of Epstein's Island I don't know
2316
01:30:51,040 --> 01:30:57,440
but here's the thing the part that gets me is that he like after she yells at him like we're all we're
2317
01:30:57,440 --> 01:31:07,280
going to get arrested now his thought process is I'm too drunk to get I can't let my kids not have
2318
01:31:07,280 --> 01:31:12,240
both of their parents I've got to make a break for it he's placed the couple in handcuffs and
2319
01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:20,960
charge them with child neglect mom swears up a storm but she's blaming
2320
01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:26,480
it on him like she had nothing to do with it right yeah get zero to do with it and then she gets lifted
2321
01:31:26,480 --> 01:31:32,480
by the guy makes a really stupid move are he takes off running with his hands cuff behind his back
2322
01:31:32,480 --> 01:31:37,280
he doesn't get very far face planting right into the sand and knocking himself out
2323
01:31:37,280 --> 01:31:45,040
I and and that's just a poor decision making on both of their parts the fact that they're both now
2324
01:31:45,040 --> 01:31:49,840
basically probably putting their kids into literally child protective services right they're
2325
01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:54,400
probably gonna go in there for a while because both of them are now going to have all this
2326
01:31:54,400 --> 01:31:59,280
should to deal with that that's a mess that's those are some crazy parts I would say that it would
2327
01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:04,480
be a great commercial for birth control right there second of all show this in high schools show
2328
01:32:04,480 --> 01:32:08,800
that everyone you need to see that's all the guy with the tattoo and the woman with the bikini
2329
01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:12,960
and how she's yelling at him and curse like all of that is just like that's that's a great
2330
01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:18,800
birth control thing right there secondly even the sheriff ran after this due to see if he was okay
2331
01:32:18,800 --> 01:32:23,200
like once you did a face plot he still went over to see was okay the fucking kids who ran head down
2332
01:32:23,200 --> 01:32:30,160
into a tree after going down a hill at five miles an hour dad just laughed at them so I
2333
01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:35,920
I I hear what you're saying and I tend to agree with you that these are I mean they still again
2334
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:41,360
those kids look if we have a split vote here if we have a split vote we can we can enter them both in
2335
01:32:41,360 --> 01:32:45,440
and let them fight it out I do I do feel like these are the bigger assholes I do feel like these
2336
01:32:45,440 --> 01:32:50,400
parents are the ones that are jeopardized and I and I mean that on a on a historic like since the kids
2337
01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:56,240
were born till probably they get to therapy later on this is going to be a more severe parenting
2338
01:32:56,240 --> 01:33:02,320
for the kids that they're gonna have to deal with then then the other guy the other guy they're just
2339
01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:07,280
gonna be like remember that time dad ran us into the tree yeah and and even the kid on the roof
2340
01:33:07,280 --> 01:33:11,840
I mean that kid's probably not gonna remember that they were walking the roof so no damage no harm
2341
01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:17,520
about there's video that will last forever on the internet but yeah but but in this case dad ran
2342
01:33:17,520 --> 01:33:23,600
away a drunk idiot and and and knocked himself out trying to get away from authorities while he was
2343
01:33:23,600 --> 01:33:31,040
drunk so I'm gonna say all of that living on inside addition is is what locks the vote up for you
2344
01:33:31,040 --> 01:33:37,360
when it comes to the chicken dinner entry for the 2025 worst parent of the year award by far
2345
01:33:37,360 --> 01:33:42,480
congratulations yeah good job buddy I'm gonna call this guy I mean it's just my name I go to name
2346
01:33:42,480 --> 01:33:48,720
I'm a column hunter it looks like a hunter doesn't he he does is that I maybe that is that like a
2347
01:33:48,720 --> 01:33:53,520
tanya I don't know how to hunt right there's no more there's the Chinese are made anymore right
2348
01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:58,080
right right right right so I'm gonna say that's that's hunter in the hunter yeah that's the couple that
2349
01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:03,040
passed out on the beach with clearly after getting the wonderful tattoos at some point in time
2350
01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:08,800
they weren't matching necessarily but they the passing out of the beach part they even did you
2351
01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:12,160
notice the sheriff had a check the pulse to make sure they were still breathing he was still
2352
01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:18,080
doing that's why they tried to make him up I love it did he come himself yeah right well and so there
2353
01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:23,440
you go we have our answer we now know who the at least in this particular week who the worst parent
2354
01:34:23,440 --> 01:34:29,200
is going to be going into and facing off against some pretty stiff competition for our worst
2355
01:34:29,200 --> 01:34:34,560
parent of 2025 I think we'll have one more coming up this next week so it's gonna it's gonna be very
2356
01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:39,280
important for us to recognize who's gonna be able to fight in that play in kind of a situation be
2357
01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:44,000
a very important vote for us Chad coming into this next it will absolutely and if you've got any
2358
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:48,000
suggestions for bad parents that you think we should see that we should that should be included
2359
01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:52,720
in at least the voting process please feel free to reach out to us the dad's own podcast you can

2362
01:35:01,520 --> 01:35:08,720
substaxi be able to reach out to us there as well but back to the I would have to say a very very solid
2363
01:35:08,720 --> 01:35:14,320
selection process today and I think you know these are gonna get harder to vote pretty soon Chad we're
2364
01:35:14,320 --> 01:35:19,200
gonna have a really drastic voting that needs to be done so it was good to see where we ended up on
2365
01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:23,280
kind of opposite sides of this and then came to a conclusion can't see that happening in DC
2366
01:35:23,280 --> 01:35:28,320
these days but everywhere else here are the dad's own podcast for myself and for mr. Chad until
2367
01:35:28,320 --> 01:35:39,040
next week see ya people of my soul I know sometimes I'm in the guy makes a really stupid move he takes off
2368
01:35:39,040 --> 01:35:44,720
running with his hands cuff behind his back he doesn't get very far face planting right into the
2369
01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:48,160
sand and knocking himself out all ambulance please
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,260
- It's you, Ted, folks.
2
00:00:02,260 --> 00:00:05,060
- But first, dad jokes.
3
00:00:05,060 --> 00:00:06,660
- "Frazing Kid" seems really hard,
4
00:00:06,660 --> 00:00:08,580
which is why I am all in favor
5
00:00:08,580 --> 00:00:11,700
of putting your kid on a leash if you want to.
6
00:00:11,700 --> 00:00:12,800
(audience laughs)
7
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:14,360
Well, your kid on a leash!

00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,200
I don't care.
9
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,200
I've never seen a kid on a leash
10
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,260
who didn't need that leash.
11
00:00:19,260 --> 00:00:22,760
(audience laughs)
12
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,640
- The leash has always pulled taught.
13
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:25,640
(audience laughs)
14
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,440
Boy, is reaching for a stranger's mouth?
15
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,000
(audience laughs)
16
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,800
Put your kid on a leash!
17
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,400
I don't understand a single argument against it.
18
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,320
People are like, "Well, I don't wanna put my kid on a leash
19
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,440
"because I want him to explore, right?
20
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,520
"I want him to be an explorer."
21
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,120
You guys remember explorers, histories, worst monsters?
22
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,800
Why are we encouraging that?
23
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,080
Maybe if Columbus' mom had put him on a leash as a kid,
24
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,240
he wouldn't have spent his adulthood
25
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:56,800
genociding everyone he met.
26
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,280
(audience laughs)
27
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,840
Maybe that's a boundary you need to teach young.
28
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,360
(audience laughs)
29
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:03,440
People are like, "Well, what happens
30
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:04,800
"when you take the kid off the leash?"
31
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,520
And then they go crazy.
32
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,600
And to that, I say, "I'm not gonna be there then."
33
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,840
(audience laughs)
34
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,040
We're all at the airport now.
35
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,040
(audience laughs)
36
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:18,880
(audience laughs)
37
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,560
- Wake up, daddy, shone.
38
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,200
(upbeat music)
39
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,040
- Good word.
40
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,680
Do you use in place of stuck in front of your kids?
41
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,680
- Oh, good question.
42
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,320
I use the word's bum, so,
43
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:33,640
I don't need for more parenting kids.
44
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,840
- Oh, shut up, fuck off!
45
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,040
- I think you did make a black and beautiful.
46
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,600
- Anytime we can start off a show with that.
47
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,080
- Shut up, fuck off!
48
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,760
- Is it gonna start to a show?
49
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,320
- Whoa, man, oh, Bobcats.
50
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,720
Episode number three, oh eight.
51
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,120
And I just, I saw that today on Facebook
52
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,880
and it just hit me as--
53
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,160
- What word do you use in place of stuck in front of your kids?
54
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,960
- Oh, good question.
55
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,720
I use the word's bum, so,
56
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,240
follow me from my parenting tips.
57
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,240
- More parenting tips.
58
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:08,160
(laughs)
59
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,400
- There's a dad's home podcast and cheers to that.
60
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,480
- Cheers, Chad.
61
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:14,320
- Yes, cheers.
62
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:15,480
- Both of us tonight.
63
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,000
- Mmm.
64
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,520
- You're straight up mine in the form of a Dequila sunrise.
65
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,720
- What do you, what could be your drinkin' right there?
66
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,840
- So, this is...
67
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:31,840
Loose, Coneros, I think is the right way to say that.
68
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,560
Long story short, a friend of mine is
69
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:41,360
a minority investor in this Tequila brand here
70
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,240
in central Texas.
71
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,080
And it's basically like the horns in Spanish,
72
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,960
so I think it's Loose Coneros.
73
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:52,400
All of you Spanish speakers, please correct me
74
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,880
'cause I'm sure I'm wrong.
75
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,080
I'm gonna go look it up later.
76
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,440
- Green goes just to drink us.
77
00:02:58,440 --> 00:02:59,840
- So we don't speak Tequila.
78
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,960
- It's called the horns.
79
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,000
- You know, speaking English, right?
80
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,640
- No, they're right, he's right about that.
81
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:08,640
It's in, anyway, we call it the horns.
82
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:11,080
It's the Tequila horns, so good time.
83
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,200
- But yeah, obvious connection right to
84
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,160
the local sports teams here.
85
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,840
- Sure, the local horns.
86
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,840
- Yeah, anyway, so we were at a dinner party recently
87
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,640
and we're gifted a bottle.
88
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:25,000
And it's pretty damn good.
89
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,600
- That's the idea, I feel like a dick.
90
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,240
My wife was gifted a bottle for motor for clients
91
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,080
and that's what I tapped into for tonight's,
92
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,680
but I didn't even bother to look at the goddamn people.
93
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:34,680
(laughing)
94
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,040
- It could be Quervo, you don't know.
95
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,040
- So no, it's definitely not, and it's a great Tequila.
96
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:40,360
And again, I don't wanna not Quervo
97
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:41,920
if they wanted to sponsor the show,
98
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,480
but we honestly are better Tequila's out there.
99
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,760
No, no, no, no.
100
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,520
- There could be, I mean, there's a lot better
101
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,360
Tequila's out there.
102
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,040
- There's the most, there's the keyless out there
103
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,640
better than Quervo, let's just put that out there.
104
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,720
Again, I'm open to hearing Quervo's side of the story,
105
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,920
but that said, it's a stellar Tequila,
106
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:01,680
and I wish I had the name and I wanna,
107
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,960
happy to run upstairs and go grab it and just talk about it,
108
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,120
but I'll say it and bring it up.
109
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,240
Maybe I'll put it in the show notes
110
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:08,960
and have that in the show notes for later on,
111
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,800
but it's a fantastic Tequila as well,
112
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,640
one of my favorites and I've had in recent weeks.
113
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,760
So I'm enjoying it, I just don't know what the name is
114
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,400
because it was gifted to my wife.
115
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,320
- Yeah, and Tequila sometimes is just Tequila, right?
116
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,840
I mean, sometimes Margarita at a restaurant,
117
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:30,720
and sometimes will ask me like, hey, what do you prefer?
118
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,560
And I gotta make some shit up, right?
119
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,560
Like, oh, I don't, Tebaba?
120
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,680
- It's getting on the top shelf and then,
121
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,320
- Yeah, that's my favorite, I'll have that.
122
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,280
- That's right, that's right, that's the good stuff.
123
00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:44,280
- That's right there.
124
00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:46,880
- Yeah, well, we've got a good solid plan,
125
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:47,960
I say stick with it.
126
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,560
Welcome to the show, coming up on the show today.
127
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,440
In fact, let's just kind of get the scroll going there.
128
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,400
Coming up on the show today, we are going to talk about the IK,
129
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,520
which I didn't know had a name, but it's got a name,
130
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,480
and apparently not only does it have a name,
131
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,520
it's spreading like COVID and it's spreading,
132
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:08,360
- Oh shit.
133
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,440
- To married people, apparently.
134
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,680
So we will talk a little bit about the IK as well as
135
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,160
the parenting, 'cause if there's one thing every parent
136
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,920
has experienced on some level.
137
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,960
It's hearing from either another parent,
138
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,520
the worst possible scenario here is that you hear from somebody
139
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,640
who's not a parent that wants to give you parenting advice
140
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,720
and you just shut the fuck up for all I can.
141
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,840
- Wait, wait, cool, where's our sound effect?
142
00:05:33,840 --> 00:05:35,320
- Oh, the shut the fuck up.
143
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,160
- Shut the fuck up.
144
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,000
- Yeah, fuck up.
145
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,640
- I mean, that's literally, if you're not a parent,
146
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,120
- Shut the fuck up.
147
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,280
- That's it.
148
00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:45,320
There's no reason to be giving parenting advice,
149
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,120
but occasionally you'll get the school teacher
150
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,200
or the church parishioner that decides it's time
151
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,160
to explain to you the way parenting should be done,
152
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,600
and then you're stuck hearing some parenting tips
153
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,200
or worse yet trends, which we all just fucking hate
154
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,280
from the phrase helicopter parents to,
155
00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:05,680
which it's moved on to snow,
156
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,400
- Snow, cloud, bulldozer, tank, yeah, you name it,
157
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:10,760
like pick a vehicle.
158
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,000
- We'll talk about some of the ones,
159
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,400
and then, and I think freely one good thing
160
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,720
to Chad and I do here in the dad's home podcast is
161
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,880
we are more than willing to make fun of ourselves
162
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,280
when we're like, yeah, I do that.
163
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:23,320
I do that.
164
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:24,520
- That is, amen, amen.
165
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,560
- So yeah, there are definitely times
166
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,040
and we're gonna talk about this list of trends,
167
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,720
parenting trends that everybody hates.
168
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:32,560
- Yes.
169
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,080
- And I, and looking through the list,
170
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,880
I was like, yeah, I do that, I do that.
171
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,800
- No, no, no, no, no, we do.
172
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:40,720
- We do. - Yeah, we do.
173
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,960
- No, I do.
174
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,440
And yeah, but there is really nothing worse
175
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,880
than getting unsolicited parenting advice.
176
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:47,720
- Right.
177
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,520
- Really from anyone for that matter,
178
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,520
'cause it always feels like such a, like,
179
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,640
- Well, first of all, they dig, it's a dig.
180
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:56,840
- It's not somebody who's like,
181
00:06:56,840 --> 00:06:59,240
hey, little known fact, there's no, again, okay,
182
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:00,200
I'm gonna reference something
183
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,400
that a lot of the younger parents, the younger dads aren't
184
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,800
gonna get, but Cliff Clayvin was a character on cheers.
185
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,880
- Oh, Cliff Clayvin was the postman on cheers.
186
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,440
And one of the famous things for Cliff Clayvin was,
187
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,040
hey, he's a little known fact.
188
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,120
John Ratzonberger played Cliff Clayvin.
189
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,880
Hey, yeah, these little known facts.
190
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,640
None, zero of these parenting trends and tips
191
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,680
that come from other parents came from nowhere.
192
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,160
They didn't pull them out of their ass,
193
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:25,440
like, oh, hey, did you know?
194
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:26,520
Here's a little known fact.
195
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,760
Nobody's doing that.
196
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,080
It's all very judgy.
197
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,680
So when somebody brings you one of these parenting tips,
198
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,640
slash trends, it's because they're fucking judging you.
199
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,840
And that's, and you've done something
200
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,240
that either put whatever your action was
201
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,840
the way you treated your kid or,
202
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,360
what way, the way you dressed at the park, I don't know,
203
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:48,880
whatever the fuck it was,
204
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,440
caused them to go instant judge on you.
205
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,440
And they're about to let you know what you're doing wrong
206
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,720
and that there's a right way to do it.
207
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,360
And they somehow secretly know what that right way is.
208
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:00,280
So that's right.
209
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:01,760
That's when that's a threat to you.
210
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,920
- I'm gonna throw this one on top of what you said.
211
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:08,240
John Ratzonberger, folks who was not only Cliff Clayvin in cheers,
212
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,280
he has been in every single,
213
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,960
and I'm not making this app, Pixar movie.
214
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,120
- That's true. - As a voice.
215
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:16,960
- He has done some--
216
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,520
- For you younger parents, go watch any Pixar movie
217
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,000
from, you know, Toy Story to Inside Out
218
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,840
and that is, he's in there, so that's him.
219
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,280
- Yep, yep, it's what he does and does so well.
220
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,080
So we'll get into some of that on the way.
221
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,720
- I would take unsolicited parenting advice from Cliff Clavelin.
222
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,280
- You would. - Cliff Clayvin's
223
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:43,560
- Unsolicited parenting advice.
224
00:08:43,560 --> 00:08:46,040
He had such bad luck as a stand-up comic.
225
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,400
Remember, is that,
226
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,120
when you stand-up comedy is the postman, stand-up comic
227
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,640
and the line at the end was, what's up with that?
228
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,520
Like his whole thing was his punchline for every joke
229
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:55,920
was, what's up with that?
230
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,160
And then he goes, if I could be serious for a moment.
231
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,160
World peace.
232
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,360
What's up with that?
233
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,880
(laughs)
234
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,280
- Oh, it's unsolicited parenting advice.
235
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,520
What's up with that? - Unsolicited parenting advice.
236
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,080
- Look now, look, we will also, we will kind of counter that
237
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,320
with a little bit of what it was like to be a parent in the 80s
238
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,680
'cause neither Chad or I were parents in the 80s,
239
00:09:12,680 --> 00:09:15,520
but we had parents in the 80s and for what it's worth.
240
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:16,480
- We were parented.
241
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,120
- We were parented if that's what you wanna call it.
242
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,800
It's stuff now that you look back on,
243
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,160
you're like, how the fuck did they get away with that?
244
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,600
How are they not cited for some of this stuff?
245
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,720
But, but we will bring it up and we'll discuss that
246
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,160
coming up a little bit later here in the dead,
247
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,800
so much. - And to be fair,
248
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,160
that was also back when the ash trays were in the armrest
249
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,600
in the door and the back seat built the car.
250
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,240
- They were built in everywhere.
251
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:44,240
- And yet have you stumbled across a movie recently
252
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:50,280
that was made, I'll just even say 30 years ago
253
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:54,680
and you're just like, oh shit, they allowed that then.
254
00:09:54,680 --> 00:09:59,680
Like, so in going back and kind of bumping right up
255
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,800
to this 80s parent thing, we talked my daughter, Charlie,
256
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,560
my 17 year old, we were talking about movies here
257
00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:13,120
and then that we think she hasn't seen it yet,
258
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,720
she should definitely check it out.
259
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,400
And one of the ones was on the heels
260
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,720
of the death of Gene Hackman.
261
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,200
This next week. - Oh yeah.
262
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,120
- We were talking about Gene,
263
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,440
she wanted to know who Gene Hackman was.
264
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,680
So we're talking about Superman and I'm like,
265
00:10:26,680 --> 00:10:29,320
oh my God, one of the best Westerns ever made.
266
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,880
And for those of you who love Westerns,
267
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,160
you know what I'm talking for those who know, you know.
268
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,600
You know what I'm talking about again,
269
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,720
unforgiven with Clint Eastwood and he,
270
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,560
he and Gene Hackman won the Oscar for his role
271
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:43,120
as the sheriff in that and was one of my favorite movies,
272
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:44,760
is one of my favorite Westerns of all time.
273
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:49,600
But my favorite Gene Hackman movie is the Bird Cage.
274
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,280
Robin Williams.
275
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,840
And I'm talking to my daughter who,
276
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,680
as we've talked about here, we've shared this before,
277
00:10:56,680 --> 00:10:59,400
my daughters love every Friday night
278
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,040
were watching RuPaul's Drag Race.
279
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,480
It's their favorites, our family thing to do.
280
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,000
Yes, this guy here, the same guy who...
281
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,240
- What word do you use in place of fuck
282
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,440
in front of your kids?
283
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,360
- Oh, good question.
284
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,240
I use the word fuck.
285
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,640
So follow me for more parenting tips.
286
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,640
- My soon to be 11 year old daughter
287
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,160
knows what a Kooter slam is,
288
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,040
which is thanks to RuPaul's Drag Race
289
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,400
'cause that's one of the dance moves
290
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,680
that the drag racers will perform
291
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:29,360
during the lip sync for your fucking life
292
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,040
portion of the RuPaul's Drag Race.
293
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,920
And so we've gone through that whole rig
294
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,960
and we're all but my daughter has never seen the Bird Cage
295
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,280
and so I'm trying to explain to her with the Bird Cage.
296
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,080
I'm like, you know what, we should just watch it
297
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:41,480
on the heels of Gene Hackman's death.
298
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,520
So we popped on the video on Friday night
299
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,240
and we watched the Bird Cage.
300
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,040
And it's just so amazing to me,
301
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:54,040
A, to see somebody smoking in a restaurant or in a bar
302
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,960
and going to holy, this was night,
303
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,040
it was filmed, it was released in 1996.
304
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,160
So we're not even talking the 70s into the 80s.
305
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,280
We're talking almost Y2K
306
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,360
and people were still fucking smoking in bars
307
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,040
and smoking in restaurants.
308
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,720
That smoking sections in restaurants
309
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,720
that made little to no sense
310
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,880
because it was just a few tables away, perhaps.
311
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,280
- This is no kids, no.
312
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,880
- No, it was perhaps separated by a little bit of lattice
313
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,600
which the smoke just goes right through
314
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,560
for those of you who are physics experts.
315
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:27,440
There was nothing that was stopping the smoke
316
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,720
from going through.
317
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,280
So to see people in the restaurants
318
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,480
and in the bars smoking, you're like holy shitballs.
319
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,080
I thought that was forever ago
320
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:40,520
and it literally was happening in 1996, whatever.
321
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:41,480
So there's that.
322
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,040
But then also thinking about some of the parenting
323
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,120
that went on in the movie
324
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,680
and the thing that on the back end of that,
325
00:12:48,680 --> 00:12:51,520
my wife and I had a conversation saying,
326
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:56,520
"I don't know that this movie could be made again.
327
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,520
The way it was in 1996."
328
00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,360
- Oh shit.
329
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:04,120
- "The movie made the lane arguably the only out gay character
330
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,520
in the movie while Robin Williams,
331
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,720
a straight guy in the kid's marriage."
332
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,440
- Heck, heck, heck, Zaria too though.
333
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,280
- Right.
334
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,720
- Not a gay guy and right, but in that movie,
335
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,320
right, he was, yeah, in the movie, right?
336
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,320
He was the gay botler in there
337
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,640
who wanted to be in the show so bad, Spartacus.
338
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,160
He was amazing.
339
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:30,400
I don't think you can make that movie
340
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,840
without gay characters in the starring roles.
341
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,600
This day and age, the way they did in 1996.
342
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,600
And again, that movie is so good and amazing.
343
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,080
- It's the whole,
344
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,000
like you got away the star power
345
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,320
to bring in the audiences versus putting
346
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:51,960
a realistic character in there,
347
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,760
which is why Asians are unrepresented
348
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,920
in Hollywood, blah, blah, blah, I can go on forever.
349
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,120
And the Oscars are going on, I think,
350
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,320
maybe tonight, I don't know.
351
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,880
So, but it seems like that shit's getting better,
352
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:05,720
but you're not wrong.
353
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,480
I mean, there's so much of that that is going on
354
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,040
that in Hollywood.
355
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:14,480
And, you know, just like parenting that happened in the 80s,
356
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,000
we couldn't parent like that today.
357
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,800
So you can make a movie like that.
358
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,400
- And again, when you hear what our parents did in the 80s,
359
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,040
and this article that's written specifically about all that,
360
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,680
it'd be like, how is it possible?
361
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,560
How are they not cuffed and hauled off?
362
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:30,400
How are they?
363
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:31,240
- How am I still alive?
364
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,080
- Parents.
365
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:32,920
- Right here.
366
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:33,760
- Yeah.
367
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:34,760
- How am I still alive?
368
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,160
- So all of that is still on the way.
369
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,240
Here at the dad's home podcast,
370
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:39,720
we'll get to that all coming up in just a minute.
371
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,760
But first I wanna give everybody a heads up
372
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,360
in a warning here that there is breaking news.
373
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,000
- Ladies and gentlemen, can I please have your attention?
374
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,760
I've just been handed an urgent news story.
375
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,480
- Get your masks on.
376
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,360
Keep your socially distant selves away from the person behind you
377
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,680
and in front of you because the ICC is out.
378
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:03,680
It's not spread as widely as what we are seeing with COVID
379
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,480
or even for what it's worth.
380
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:07,320
- For the measles.
381
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:08,160
- For the measles, yeah.
382
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,000
- Yeah.
383
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,440
- You guys have a problem there as well.
384
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,840
I understand that polio is making a return.
385
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,840
There's a lot of different things that are happening right now
386
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,280
and there should be concerns.
387
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:22,000
But the ICC is one, I don't know too many people
388
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,520
who have ever, who haven't seen conversation about it.
389
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,040
I haven't seen a whole bunch of social media about it,
390
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,040
but it is spreading.
391
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,240
It is definitely something that we need to be concerned about.
392
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,120
For those of you who don't know what the ICC is,
393
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,640
I saw it on social media and my wife actually sent me,
394
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,240
the same day I saw it, she's like, look at this.
395
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,960
And I'm like, oh my God, she's telling me she's got the ICC.
396
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,320
That's what she's trying to tell me.
397
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,520
This is how I read into it, right?
398
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,480
As soon as I get this, I'm like, oh, this is for sure.
399
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:47,320
- I have all of it.
400
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,160
- I have these symptoms.
401
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,160
- I have these symptoms.
402
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,840
- This is like she's wet indeed herself into,
403
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,080
into believe, I Googled it, I've got it.
404
00:15:55,080 --> 00:16:00,160
She's totally got it, completely a hundred percent.
405
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,120
And so with that, I'm like, well, what is this,
406
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:03,400
I gotta figure out what this ICC is
407
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,680
'cause the ICC is something that sounds relatively scary
408
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,240
and low and behold here, the ICC is a sudden feeling
409
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:13,360
of disgust towards your partner often for minor things.
410
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:14,880
So again, if you're married,
411
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,520
study showed physical appearance is a less frequent
412
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,600
extrigger than behavior or personality.
413
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,720
Okay, so it's not necessarily the extra weight you've put on
414
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,520
or the crow's feet around your eyes
415
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,360
or the wrinkles around the sides of your mouth
416
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,040
or even your horrible 1990s goatee.
417
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,320
- And you know, you're long toenails, right?
418
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:42,160
- Thank you.
419
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,000
- Any of those.
420
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,360
It's not even my snoring apparently, which is
421
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,840
clearly an ICC, I mean, that's a symptom of ICC if I've ever heard
422
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:49,840
it. - It is.
423
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,960
- Literally heard it.
424
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,480
But they're saying that 64% of people,
425
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,680
64% of married people, I'm guessing,
426
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,160
what they're saying, have felt the ICC toward their partner.
427
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:05,160
26% have ended their relationship
428
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,000
right after feeling the ICC.
429
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,040
So that's apparently a moment that for those of us
430
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,720
who haven't been divorced, we've gotten over the ICC,
431
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,160
I don't, your thoughts on that, Chad,
432
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,560
can we, can one overcome the ICC?
433
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,720
- Well, I think the question here is,
434
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,200
can you build up an immunity to the ICC?
435
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,400
Like you could come down with the ICC, right?
436
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,560
Be sick with the ICC for a while.
437
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:30,400
- Yeah.
438
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,160
- And maybe in your antibodies,
439
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:38,160
your ICC antibodies begin to build up a tolerance for the ICC.
440
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,960
- Right.
441
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:41,440
- And that's how marriage is done.
442
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:42,440
- You don't have it, right?
443
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,640
It's definitely there.
444
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,160
You've experienced it.
445
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,640
It's somehow dulled?
446
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,080
- I think it's like herpes.
447
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,760
So if you have herpes,
448
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,840
like I think like 70 or 80 or maybe even 90% of us have herpes,
449
00:17:58,840 --> 00:17:59,680
right?
450
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:00,680
Like you get a cold sore, that's herpes.
451
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:01,520
- Right.
452
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,440
- It's hard, not to have herpes is from what I understand.
453
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:06,640
- Right.
454
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,520
- And so, - Do you think public toilets,
455
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:09,880
your kids, your kids, your herpes,
456
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,520
easily get herpes. - If you've ever shopped at pottery barn,
457
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,680
you're probably got herpes.
458
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,920
If your wife is ever,
459
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,600
I don't even think this is a thing anymore.
460
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:19,800
So I'm gonna say it,
461
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,360
if your wife ever shopped at BB or baby,
462
00:18:22,360 --> 00:18:23,480
I don't know what they call that at the mall,
463
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,640
the women always have the BB shirt,
464
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:26,880
they probably got herpes.
465
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,240
They probably got the abstracts
466
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,320
when you shop at the purchase of their baby shirt.
467
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:31,960
- I'm sure, I'm sure that it.
468
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,600
- And so, yeah, in my mind,
469
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,320
I think that the ICC is like that where you catch it at some point,
470
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,400
maybe you caught the ICC at baby while you were shopping
471
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:41,800
with your spouse.
472
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,880
And then you're like,
473
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,280
"Oh, why do I feel like shit?"
474
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,040
Are you realize it's the ICC and then you--
475
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:48,880
- It's the ICC.
476
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:49,720
- It's the ICC.
477
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:50,560
- You know, week or two goes by,
478
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,080
you're like, "Hey, I'm feeling a little bit better."
479
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,080
I mean, I think I maybe still have the ICC,
480
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,000
but it feels like it's less.
481
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,720
- I do, it makes a lot of sense.
482
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,320
- What I don't see, and again,
483
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,440
this is just based upon this article,
484
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:03,840
and I believe it's psychology today,
485
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,960
was one of the places that was talking about the ICC.
486
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,640
They say that narcissism and perfectionism increase
487
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,080
the ICC likelihood.
488
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,040
So if you're focused on yourself and only yourself,
489
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,040
and or the perfection is like,
490
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,840
you've gotta have everything down pat this way,
491
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,960
and there's no other way to do it.
492
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,800
In your partner, the ICC factor climbs up,
493
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,080
like it jacks up when that happens, right?
494
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,120
Which is why I am definitely not a perfectionist
495
00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:32,480
when it comes to getting a hand job,
496
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,040
because I think that's the one that's the ICC.
497
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:35,880
(laughs)
498
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:37,400
- I think that's a good point.
499
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:38,680
Like if you're complaining about that,
500
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,240
you need that to be perfect.
501
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:41,240
- Yeah. - That's,
502
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:42,800
that's, that's ends in divorce.
503
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,800
- I wanna say this, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna,
504
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,480
for a dude, and I'll just say this for the dad's home podcast,
505
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:48,360
and correct me if I'm wrong,
506
00:19:48,360 --> 00:19:51,920
except that I do believe that for dads, for guys,
507
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,600
one of the things that will cure the ICC,
508
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,880
we are very, we're prone to catch the ICC,
509
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,200
just like everybody else in America,
510
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,120
just like our partners, like everybody else in America,
511
00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:03,120
we catch the same ICC that they've caught,
512
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:05,720
maybe at a different time, different place, different,
513
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,680
era, whatever. - They've passed it back and forth
514
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,760
between each other.
515
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,400
But from the dude's perspective here,
516
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,680
there's nothing that cures a case of the ICCs.
517
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,720
It's like chicken soup for the ICC is a solid hand job
518
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,000
or some form of dry-humping.
519
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,160
I mean, that's really what it comes down to.
520
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,080
Of course, the, you know, I can,
521
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:24,920
- I can cure.
522
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:25,760
- I can cure.
523
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,200
The further you wanna go, absolutely.
524
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,400
That will absolutely cure my ICC for a very long,
525
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,920
I mean, perhaps even just get rid of it all together,
526
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,560
may, may completely destroy that virus, the ICC.
527
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,040
- Oh, it's, but I think like most medicines, right,
528
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:46,040
with something that's a, you know, a prolonged disease,
529
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,040
you know, something that sticks with your body,
530
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,960
you need, you need medicine, you know, every,
531
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:54,160
every so often, right?
532
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,800
To make sure that you keep the ICC away, right?
533
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,360
Like, you know, Apple a day keeps the doctor away,
534
00:20:59,360 --> 00:21:00,360
well, right?
535
00:21:00,360 --> 00:21:02,160
- Right, hand job a day keeps the ICC away, so.
536
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:03,240
- That's, hold on.
537
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:04,960
We, I'm seeing a t-shirt right now.
538
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:05,800
I'm here.
539
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,360
(laughing)
540
00:21:07,360 --> 00:21:08,520
- Dad's on podcast.
541
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,120
- There is a t-shirt.
542
00:21:10,120 --> 00:21:10,960
- Let's go.
543
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:11,800
- Let's go.
544
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:12,960
- Hand job a week keeps the ICC away.
545
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:13,960
(laughing)
546
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,200
I think that that, and again, I'm not saying it's a cure all,
547
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,640
but I am saying that, you know, sometimes one's symptoms
548
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,200
can be so bad and you need a little tamaflu
549
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,160
or you need a little nightclub that just kind of
550
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,160
gets you over that hump for the time being
551
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,600
to be able to go back to work.
552
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,160
And I'm saying when it comes to the ICC,
553
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,040
sometimes the only hump is a dry hump.
554
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,720
And that's not a bad thing.
555
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,200
It's not a bad thing.
556
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,480
I'm just saying that that can alleviate symptoms.
557
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,760
If you've got symptoms, you might want to try
558
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,360
the dry hump for alleviating symptoms.
559
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:43,360
- Beautifully put.
560
00:21:43,360 --> 00:21:44,640
- Yeah, beautifully put.
561
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,920
- And again, and I'm, oh, I just want to be clear.
562
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,280
I'm not saying go out and get a dry hump
563
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:49,560
from a complete stranger.
564
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,920
No, no, that's not the point I'm trying to make here.
565
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,800
From the one that you love that is giving you the ICC,
566
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,480
it's perfectly-
567
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,600
- That's the only cure.
568
00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:58,960
- That's the only cure for the ICC.
569
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,120
It's if you want to get over that ICC,
570
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:02,760
it's if you don't want to end like the 26%
571
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,600
ending the relationship right after the ICC signs
572
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,080
have kicked in, dry hump, hand job, I'm just saying.
573
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:14,080
It's a solid remedy initially for the situation.
574
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:20,920
So now moving onward, the trends
575
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,720
that make us absolutely sick as parents.
576
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,880
And again, if you've heard this,
577
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:30,880
and my, I'm gonna say it, my daughter throws shit back
578
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,480
in my face all the time when it comes to this.
579
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,480
Does your daughter do this, your daughters do this to you
580
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,320
where they're like, why are you such a hell,
581
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,000
they take whatever the trend is,
582
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,880
why are you such a helicopter parent?
583
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,920
Why are you constantly, why hovering?
584
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,760
Why are you such a snow plow?
585
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,320
I don't even know what the fuck that parent is.
586
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,040
I have no idea what a snow plow parent is.
587
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,560
I'm like barreling through and just like pushing
588
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,160
everything aside for your kid.
589
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,280
I don't know, I'm just trying to guess here.
590
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,040
But when you hear these trends for parenting,
591
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,000
you're like, there's no way I do that.
592
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,640
And then you take a second to go, okay, maybe I just did that now.
593
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,160
It's very good and possible that I just, I know me,
594
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,560
not me, I would never do that.
595
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:16,920
There's so many facets of ways to raise your children
596
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,520
and literally changes from week to week.
597
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,680
If I did a search right now on chat GPT, I'm sure to come up
598
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:26,160
with the top five parenting trends or top 10 over the last 10 years
599
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,680
and there's gonna be way more than that.
600
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,880
There'll be like a hundred different parenting trends that are there.
601
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,280
But you know, like everything from,
602
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,840
do you get your kids plastic toys?
603
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,800
Or is that not okay because the plastics could cause cancer
604
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,920
so you've got to get them toys made of wood?
605
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,720
Or gifts that you're getting for other kids
606
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,800
because you've got to have naturally sourced gifts
607
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:47,760
for people's kids.
608
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:48,800
What about this?
609
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,640
For us, when my daughter was growing up,
610
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,000
you had to be concerned, not just at school,
611
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,600
with which kids had allergies
612
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,520
and what you could provide in the school.
613
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:01,160
Like how many times did birthdays at school get canceled
614
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,440
or you could only bring something from the store
615
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,840
that didn't contain anything that was cooked with nuts?
616
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,400
Like it was, you know, it was all of,
617
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:09,680
- It's all of those. - It's all of those.
618
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,240
- Right, legitimate things that you have to have concerns about
619
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,280
that started to shift the way you did things at your house
620
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,640
or for your kid from when you were growing up.
621
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:24,640
So, we're in a place right now as weird as this sound.
622
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,880
I've got a dog, I've got a golden retriever.
623
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,520
We were feeding that golden retriever,
624
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,360
you just run out of the local pet store
625
00:24:31,360 --> 00:24:34,920
get them like the Purina dog chow, put it in the bowl, whatever.
626
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,240
Now we started doing fresh pet for a little bit.
627
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,640
That's pricey shit, you know that?
628
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:40,480
Fresh pet, by the way,
629
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,840
we would absolutely accept your advertising.
630
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,840
- Okay, and I will go you one better.
631
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:50,840
- Yeah, we actually hand make our dogs food.
632
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,280
We do the same thing.
633
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:53,560
- Yes, we do the same thing.
634
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,560
- All right, for our favorite food, ready?
635
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,360
- It's cheap as shit when you make it yourself.
636
00:24:57,360 --> 00:24:58,200
- Totally, yes.
637
00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,280
I mean, it doesn't last very long,
638
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,280
but that's okay 'cause it's fresh and they're eating good food
639
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:02,760
'cause we just, we get some of,
640
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,120
we either do like a ground chicken, ground turkey,
641
00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:05,960
we brown that up.
642
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:07,960
- Freezin' frozen. - Yeah,
643
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,720
throw some vegetables in there,
644
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,400
throw some keen wall or some rice in there,
645
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:13,480
along with some broth,
646
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:14,320
they can't keep that going,
647
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:15,520
some sweet potatoes in there.
648
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,760
And that's what my dog gets to eat every week.
649
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,760
And she loves it, it's the best thing going.
650
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,080
And I'm like, well, at least it's not the shit
651
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,480
that they put in the kibble that I have no idea what's in there.
652
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:25,320
- That's right.
653
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,000
- So, we started doing that.
654
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,840
- And I see this, not a parenting trend.
655
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,800
Why me think it is if you consider your pet.
656
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,000
- It is not, we just talked about you're doing it,
657
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,360
and I'm doing it, it's a trend.
658
00:25:34,360 --> 00:25:38,400
- Yes, it's, and I mean, we're parents to our pets, I guess.
659
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:39,800
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
660
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,680
- But I mean, like how many parents did you know?
661
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:46,400
We went from getting jars of baby food, or not even jars,
662
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:47,800
I'm sorry, I can't even say that anymore.
663
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,720
The squeezable containers that you could give your kids
664
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,720
the baby food in.
665
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:54,720
- See, that's how we,
666
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:55,720
- Let's go, we are adults.
667
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,360
- Should you do that or should you puree it yourself?
668
00:25:58,360 --> 00:26:01,120
Like, should you make your own shit for your kids?
669
00:26:01,120 --> 00:26:04,160
So, there's all of these kinds of different trends that come up.
670
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,920
And if you're not doing whatever the trend is,
671
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,760
you're going to hear about it from somebody who's doing that trend.
672
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,000
Even for the longest time, as we now take a look at who's in charge
673
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,800
of health in this country,
674
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,360
there were concerns about vaccines,
675
00:26:16,360 --> 00:26:19,240
and whether or not that contact caused autism,
676
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,200
and there were plenty of scientific studies
677
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,480
to point out the facts, but that didn't stop people
678
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,440
from going that complete other direction.
679
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,160
Point being, that was a massive trend
680
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:28,400
for a long period of time.
681
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,160
I had a number of people, my age, with my daughter's age,
682
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,360
they had kids, the same age as my daughter,
683
00:26:34,360 --> 00:26:36,520
there were questioning, should I even get my kid vaccinated
684
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:37,520
for all these things?
685
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,320
I'm like, okay, that's a trend.
686
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,960
That's certainly something that we've got to take a look at.
687
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:43,680
And I knew a number of people that were staying away
688
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,560
specifically from that, that I think that, you know,
689
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,560
it became a very vast movement, which maybe,
690
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,520
may have led to some of the chicken pox you're seeing
691
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,000
right there in Texas right now.
692
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,120
Could very well have led to a good portion of that.
693
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:59,600
So, anyway, those are some of the trends,
694
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,120
but let's dig into some of the ones that they say,
695
00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:04,920
are ones that parents are really pissed off about you.
696
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,200
There's been a BuzzFeed has gone through,
697
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,240
asked the parents that they have reading their website,
698
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,480
what are some of the ones that are just annoying as fuck to you?
699
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:13,840
And these are the ones that came back.
700
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:17,720
So, number one, parents never let their children be bored.
701
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,320
When my daughter complained about boredom,
702
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:20,560
I gave her some chores.
703
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:24,200
She learned to embrace boredom, which is not entirely a bad thing.
704
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,080
What did, I'll tell you what I did,
705
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,160
I gave my daughter my phone.
706
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:29,520
That's the wrong move.
707
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,600
That's not the right move.
708
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,080
That is, see, there you go, the very first one out of the gate,
709
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:36,480
both you and I are guilty.
710
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,240
We can't let our children be bored.
711
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,600
Can't let our children be bored.
712
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:41,440
I can't.
713
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,720
I do like what this guy says, hey, okay, your bored,
714
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,760
let's go outside and get him on the yard.
715
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:48,600
Right.
716
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:49,600
Oh, now you're not so bored.
717
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,080
Oh, son, you're not bored anymore, right?
718
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:52,920
You're raking leaves that boards you?
719
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,320
Hey, all right, that's cool.
720
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:56,160
Oh, that's cool.
721
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:57,000
Oh, that's cool.
722
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:57,840
That's fine.
723
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,120
We need to clean the garage out,
724
00:27:59,120 --> 00:28:01,400
we're going to organize the shelves, let's go.
725
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,400
We got to fix the black top on the driveway.
726
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,160
You want to start laying down some tar,
727
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,880
we'll start pounding it out there and then do it overhauling.
728
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:10,720
It'd be great.
729
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,080
You can totally keep them getting bored.
730
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,400
It's going to take like three or four days.
731
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:13,920
Let's do this.
732
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,000
We need to rebuild the carburetor on the car too.
733
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,000
So, exactly.
734
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,480
That's got to hang some new drywall.
735
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:20,480
Let's do this.
736
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:25,600
So, but that's certainly a thing that we can for a second.
737
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,880
And our kids, like, I, what I was going up, Chad?
738
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,440
First of all, I keep, and this is how old I am to my kids.
739
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,440
I couldn't play enough baseball.
740
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,640
I would do anything in the summertime.
741
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,360
I would go out with a wiffle ball by myself
742
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,960
and I would draw lines of chalk on the garage door
743
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,880
and I'd hit the ball to those different lines
744
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,160
to try to get points.
745
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,280
We'd play horse out with the basketball over the garage
746
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,200
and the basketball hoop and we'd try to,
747
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:52,760
but at the same time, my friends,
748
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,800
I would get on our fake BMX dirt bikes
749
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,360
and go down to the school yard.
750
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,160
And if there were only two of us,
751
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:00,720
we'd have one pitcher and one hitter
752
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,560
and we would put trash cans down from second base,
753
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:04,760
like home plate, down second base,
754
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:05,880
all the way to center field.
755
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,360
And you could only hit to the right side
756
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,080
or the left side of those trash cans
757
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,200
or we'd play tennis ball, baseball.
758
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,760
And we were constantly finding things to do.
759
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,880
And I feel like my kids can't do that now.
760
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,920
- Well, I look, you know, say what you want
761
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,920
about electronics, media, the internet, whatever.
762
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,160
Our kids are digital natives from now on.
763
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,600
Most kids, you know, unless there's some giant magnetic pulse
764
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,840
that knocks out all electricity, this is, you know,
765
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:36,840
it's here to stay, right?
766
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,080
Is kids are gonna be digital natives
767
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:43,480
and it's too easy for kids to jump on a device instead of,
768
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,280
hey, let's go outside and be creative
769
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,720
and come up with a game where I only have to hit it
770
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:48,560
to the right side.
771
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:49,760
That doesn't happen anymore.
772
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:50,600
It should.
773
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,440
I think it's a shame that we're not still doing that
774
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:55,440
with our kids.
775
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,880
You know, and I know in our house,
776
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,800
we held that as long as we could, but we gave in.
777
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,680
But there's something to be said for letting your kids
778
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,240
have that imagination and play.
779
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,600
Like I remember when my kids are, I don't know,
780
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:13,600
eight, nine, 10 years old, we had a pet shop,
781
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,200
pet shop, something anyway.
782
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,720
But like these little characters my kids would play with,
783
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,640
they would play for hours and use their imagination.
784
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,360
And I mean, you know, they would set up these elaborate,
785
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,920
I still have videos on my phone of them like playing this,
786
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:30,760
right?
787
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,000
Hey, dad, can I borrow your phone?
788
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,840
I'm gonna make a video of me playing.
789
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,200
Like, yeah, cool, knock yourself out.
790
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:40,040
And so that still existed and that's, you know,
791
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,680
having that imagination, I think that's the,
792
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,440
that's the anti, that's the serum to this, right?
793
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,040
We used to have just Legos, like not a set of Legos,
794
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,320
like not a from a Lego fronze,
795
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:57,160
like, you just had fucking blocks of Legos and you had to make
796
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,200
shit with them.
797
00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:59,200
You didn't know what you were making.
798
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,280
It was all discolored, it didn't match at all,
799
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,680
but you're like, look at this goddamn castle that I made
800
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:04,840
or the Empire State Building.
801
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,320
Yes, it's 18 different colors and none of them match.
802
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:08,440
Why is that floor yellow?
803
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,000
I don't know, that's all I had for bricks
804
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,560
where yellow bricks are right there.
805
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,520
But that's how you made shit and you,
806
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,720
and you kept busy doing it and you actually felt like you
807
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,760
were like accomplishing stuff.
808
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,280
But I feel like, you know, then move into the digital
809
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,080
ages you pointed out, which again, my 17-year-old daughter
810
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,280
at age three when she was on my phone was deleting contacts
811
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,040
from my phone, like she knew how to,
812
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,640
that just scan through stuff, but she's deleting contacts
813
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:35,640
from my phone.
814
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,680
Dad, dad doesn't need to talk to these people.
815
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,880
No idea who they were, but all of a sudden they're gone.
816
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,360
I can't find them anymore.
817
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,680
So I feel like that, you know,
818
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,000
I, there's a plus and minus with all of that,
819
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,360
the plus side is she's so fluent in all that.
820
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,400
It's second nature, there's no intimidation
821
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,840
when it comes to using computers or phones
822
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,000
or any of that kind of stuff.
823
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,120
And it's very helpful to my wife and I when it comes
824
00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,120
to social media and business and all of it's fantastic.
825
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,040
But at the same time, remember Legos jumped on board
826
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,240
for a little while there, where not only were your directions
827
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,120
on how to build the kit through your phone,
828
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,200
like you'd scan a QR code and that's where the directions
829
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,720
where you'd slide through your phone
830
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,040
to see how to build the Lego friends kit.
831
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,120
But then you could also take snapshots
832
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,240
and it would put like a total picture around your Lego kit,
833
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,320
like a scene and then they came out with an app
834
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,680
where you could film a movie with your own.
835
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,680
It was like, it was crazy stuff
836
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,880
that we would never be able to do when we were kids.
837
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,680
But it was all around not allowing your kids in this day
838
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,440
and age to be bored.
839
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,240
And I kind of feel like it's okay for them to be a little bored.
840
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:38,920
It's all right.
841
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,320
They don't need to constantly, I think they need a little downtime
842
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,200
from the constant influx of stimulus
843
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,640
that they see whether it's on the phone or on the TV
844
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:50,880
or anywhere around them.
845
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,120
It's all right to have a little downtime and be a little bored.
846
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:53,960
It's okay for that.
847
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,720
It's okay for parents to do that for a bit.
848
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,120
- So what is the other toxic parenting trend
849
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,760
that I am guilty of on the list?
850
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,360
- Yes.
851
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:04,200
Let's see.
852
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:08,160
First of all, I will say when your kid doesn't go to sleep,
853
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:12,280
it's the worst thing that you can go through as a parent.
854
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,960
When your kid is not sleeping and now you can't sleep
855
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:16,000
and all you wanna do is sleep
856
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:17,640
and you know you can sleep in a second
857
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:18,720
as soon as your head hits the pillow.
858
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,280
But they're not sleeping and you have a conversation
859
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,000
with your other half like, can we give them better drill?
860
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,200
'Cause I mean, they're not sneezing right now.
861
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,200
I thought I heard a little,
862
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,160
it's kinda like she was a little stuffed up.
863
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:33,000
- Yeah.
864
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,080
- 'Cause it looks a little red, maybe I am.
865
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,680
- So, yeah, no one is gonna make him go to sleep
866
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,320
but is that kind of giving him drugs
867
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,480
for no reason other than they try to get him to sleep?
868
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,280
Well, and then welcome into melatonin
869
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,680
and that became a thing for people to do
870
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,000
is to hand off melatonin to their kids.
871
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,880
But then you start to get, the kids get used to that
872
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:54,280
and like any form of a drug, they become,
873
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,000
you know, they build up a tolerance to it
874
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,360
and so you need more and more.
875
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,360
That becomes certainly a scary situation going forward
876
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:01,200
for some of the parts.
877
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,400
I have tried so hard to stay away from that.
878
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,920
I have given my kids melatonin before
879
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:11,440
but it's on like the once in a generalized long time.
880
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:12,800
If it's mainly about nightmares
881
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,680
or if they're having some sort of a problem asleep
882
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,480
that they can't even voice what the disturbance
883
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,840
was in their fearful of something's in their room.
884
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,720
It was when they were smaller.
885
00:34:22,720 --> 00:34:25,240
I've given like half of a melatonin for them
886
00:34:25,240 --> 00:34:27,960
to be able to take it, the kid's melatonin version of it.
887
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,720
But largely as they got older, we'd stayed away from all that
888
00:34:31,720 --> 00:34:32,560
and didn't need to go there
889
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,040
but that was one of the big trends that was happening
890
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:34,880
for a while as well.
891
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,440
So, this is weird.
892
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,120
I have a question for the audience, I think here.
893
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:40,840
- Yeah, when my kids were little,
894
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,400
we used to give them like half an ambion.
895
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,840
- And so, all right.
896
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:46,840
- Yeah.
897
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:47,680
- I thought you were gonna be like,
898
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,920
"Well, we used to dose them up on some heroin."
899
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,920
- Yeah. - Yeah.
900
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,080
- So, maybe-- - No, but it was asleep.
901
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:54,920
- I know, right.
902
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,320
(laughing)
903
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,040
- Well, I didn't look like my mom talks
904
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,840
and I thought it was jokes until I got older
905
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,800
and realized she's not fucking joking about this
906
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,240
but when she was younger and she'd have a cough,
907
00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:08,280
there'd be whiskey involved with some sort of honey
908
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,280
that they would take to kind of suit them
909
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,120
and make them go to sleep.
910
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,840
- Sometimes those legit moms recipe, like, you know,
911
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,760
yeah, that was legit.
912
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,120
- No, not equal is basically pure alcohol.
913
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,560
So, let's just have that in fucking fall asleep
914
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,600
and you'll be crashed out until the next day.
915
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:24,840
Sometimes it's even hard to get up
916
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:25,920
with that kind of a hangover.
917
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:30,600
So, this is one that I have a problem with
918
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,440
but I certainly tell my kids this.
919
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,040
Telling your kids they can be literally anything.
920
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:36,880
- Oh, sure.
921
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,440
- They can go to an Ivy League university.
922
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:39,280
They can be a movie star.
923
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:40,440
They can be an NFL quarterback.
924
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:41,280
They can be the president.
925
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:42,720
All you have to do is dream big.
926
00:35:42,720 --> 00:35:45,720
The trouble is many talented people don't do those things
927
00:35:45,720 --> 00:35:47,920
because of bad luck, not wanting the stress
928
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,440
or simply because there are too few professional football players.
929
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,200
So teaching your kids to work hard
930
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,080
and develop their talents is great
931
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,120
but telling them they can do anything
932
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,640
if they just wanted bad enough
933
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,200
set some up for a major disappointment.
934
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,480
- So, yeah, the, yes.
935
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,160
And I will add to this, you know,
936
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,080
both of us have softball kids
937
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:11,080
and I have seen over the years the drop off of kids.
938
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:16,560
Like, a lot of kids play softball 12, 14 years old
939
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,800
around the 16 new age up to the 18 new age
940
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,560
where there's a drop off of kids who play.
941
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,440
And it really comes down to, I think, this exact thing
942
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,800
where parents are like, oh, you can totally play a D1 school,
943
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:31,920
blah, blah, blah.
944
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:35,160
You know, you're bound to play great softball, right?
945
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,560
And the parents have a delusion about their kid
946
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,480
and they tell them the shit and the kid gets it in their head
947
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,400
but then the kid figures out, you know what,
948
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:44,960
that's a lot of work.
949
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,600
I don't wanna do that work.
950
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,000
And so the difference, the subtle difference here
951
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,280
between telling your kids they can be whatever they want
952
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,280
and doing it the right way as a parent,
953
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,800
at least in my mind and how I've handled it with my kid
954
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,440
is put in the work, put in the work,
955
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,960
I can't put in the work for you but put in the work.
956
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,880
If that is your dream, if that is your goal,
957
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,920
put in your work and I'm happy to drive you to do the work,
958
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,360
I'm happy to be there like catching you
959
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:14,680
if you're gonna be pitching like my kid,
960
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,320
I will be there to support that but you've gotta put
961
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,160
in the work, you don't put in the work, you got no dream.
962
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,120
It's just, it's air, it's nothing.
963
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,920
And so, hey, you wanna do these things, put in the work.
964
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:27,800
That's the difference.
965
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,400
And so yeah, just telling your kid that,
966
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,240
making them think they can be that
967
00:37:31,240 --> 00:37:34,120
and then watching them fail because you set them up
968
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,280
for failure, that sucks.
969
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,120
- Yeah, and I think, and I think the other side of that,
970
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,680
and I think this is equally as important to bring up
971
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:42,960
as you talked about with the hard work.
972
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:47,160
And I can say this because both my wife and I,
973
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:51,960
in the good times and the bad times have followed our dreams
974
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,920
to be what we've wanted to be professionally
975
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,080
and sometimes that's come with a ton of sacrifice.
976
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,520
It's come with not having roots for me working in radio,
977
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,160
having to move all over the country,
978
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,960
to find the next job, to pursue that job
979
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:07,760
in the bigger market.
980
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,720
And so you don't really have friends or roots
981
00:38:10,720 --> 00:38:12,440
that you've set any place.
982
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:16,640
But also, just the acknowledgement that not only is there
983
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,040
the hard work that comes with that,
984
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,920
sometimes the successes aren't always there.
985
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:23,840
And sometimes you have to be prepared
986
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,040
for the failures that come with that.
987
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,880
And they can be overwhelming.
988
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:33,800
So it's if you want to pursue that part of your life,
989
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:37,000
if you want to pursue something that is your dream,
990
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,040
I'm gonna be here to fully support you
991
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:40,320
in whatever that is.
992
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:45,320
But with it, I would always prepare for some sort of a backup plan
993
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:49,160
and something that you can do
994
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,120
when things aren't going well for whatever that profession is
995
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:53,160
because there will be times.
996
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,280
There will be moments when those things happen.
997
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,520
And so it's not just about putting in all the hard work
998
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,240
'cause you can put all the hard work in the world in
999
00:39:00,240 --> 00:39:01,720
and not get the break.
1000
00:39:01,720 --> 00:39:05,720
So you've got to be prepared for what that's going to be
1001
00:39:05,720 --> 00:39:07,800
and how you're going to move forward with that.
1002
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,960
'Cause I'm all for following that dream.
1003
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:11,960
I'm all for being what you wanna be,
1004
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,320
but just realize that in order to do that,
1005
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,360
there's gonna be a number of other things that you have to do
1006
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,120
that other people, your friends, aren't going to have to do.
1007
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:20,800
- Yeah.
1008
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:21,960
- T-shirt, I can't.
1009
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:23,000
I have softball.
1010
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,840
- Yes.
1011
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:25,840
- 100%.
1012
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:26,840
Look at this.
1013
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,680
We're like what, half an hour into this
1014
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:31,720
and we've got two t-shirts already ready to go.
1015
00:39:31,720 --> 00:39:33,400
(laughs)
1016
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,720
Now there's two different things that I,
1017
00:39:35,720 --> 00:39:38,520
one I have a problem with and I'll bring that up secondly here,
1018
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,320
but the free-range parenting element that people had been doing
1019
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:43,760
like when my kids were little,
1020
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,840
which was just basically like let your kids do whatever
1021
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:48,560
the fuck they wanna do.
1022
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,440
We grew up at a time when you didn't have to,
1023
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,280
you can go out and do whatever, we were latch key kids.
1024
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,120
You go out and you do whatever you wanna do as long as you're home
1025
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:56,960
before the street lights come on your end of your shape.
1026
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,480
If you've gotten your homework done and all that kind of stuff.
1027
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,000
But free-range parenting was kind of the,
1028
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:06,600
in my opinion was kind of the forced air to that.
1029
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:07,640
It was like, well, you know, look,
1030
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:08,880
if we did it when we were growing up,
1031
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:09,880
why can't we let our kids do it?
1032
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,520
So we'll just let them do anything that they wanna do.
1033
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:13,880
They will have free reign.
1034
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,240
You've seen some of the schools, like the Montessori schools,
1035
00:40:17,240 --> 00:40:20,480
they're like, there's not a regimented program in place
1036
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:21,800
for them as to what they're going to learn.
1037
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,920
Whatever you want when you go in that day,
1038
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,000
you go and learn it and the teachers will be there
1039
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,560
for whatever you wanna focus on kind of until you're tired
1040
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,240
of it and move on to the next thing.
1041
00:40:30,240 --> 00:40:32,800
Which again, I don't have a problem with that.
1042
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,720
But I do think that there has to be guidelines in place
1043
00:40:35,720 --> 00:40:38,520
and free-range parenting was sort of the anti-guide line
1044
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:39,880
portion of things.
1045
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,040
And I think we've seen, go ahead.
1046
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,880
- I just said the words you're looking for is structure.
1047
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,440
There is a ton of evidence scientific evidence.
1048
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,920
- Yes, kids need structure.
1049
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,120
- Period.
1050
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:53,480
- Hard-stopped period.
1051
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,120
Like, they thrive on it.
1052
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,120
And then that goes from everything from the theory of sleep
1053
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,120
to get sleep and letting your kid kind of cry it out.
1054
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:02,960
Which I always thought was the worst thing
1055
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:04,200
when you have a child.
1056
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:08,200
That's just has been born or is in the first year
1057
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,920
of their life and you're like, I can't stand all the crying
1058
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,280
when we need to get them to go down for their nap
1059
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:14,920
and the time that they're supposed to have their nap
1060
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:16,200
and you're like, just let them cry it out.
1061
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:17,720
I'm like, that's so mean.
1062
00:41:17,720 --> 00:41:18,640
But it works.
1063
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:20,280
And they cry it out and they go to sleep
1064
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,200
and they start to develop their patterns from there.
1065
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,440
That's how this all comes together.
1066
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,360
But it's part of that structure.
1067
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,480
It's part of realizing, there's discipline.
1068
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:30,440
There are things that you have.
1069
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,320
If you're constantly free-ranging,
1070
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,120
you don't necessarily get the ought of discipline
1071
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,400
as something that enters your mind.
1072
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,320
You're not getting punished for doing things.
1073
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,040
It's kind of like either a success or failure,
1074
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,520
but there's no punishment when you're looking at
1075
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:44,800
the way you interact with other people
1076
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:48,560
and how you interact in a society as the case may be.
1077
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,120
I always bring it back to work for my kids.
1078
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:54,840
I'm like, yeah, intellectually speaking here,
1079
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:58,640
do you think that this would work if you were at a job?
1080
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:03,360
So if you were free-ranging at work, people, parents,
1081
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,240
and you had a very specific job,
1082
00:42:06,240 --> 00:42:08,120
I don't know, say you're a nurse, right?
1083
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,560
And you're a free-range nurse.
1084
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:12,160
I'm pretty sure you're not going to be a nurse
1085
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,560
at whatever particular place you're working very long
1086
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:15,760
if you're free-range.
1087
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,160
Right, there's a specific set of things you have to do.
1088
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,560
You got a little patience, paper, blah, blah, blah.
1089
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,760
Anyway, that free-range, bad.
1090
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,520
You have free-range brain surgeon.
1091
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:28,360
That's not going to happen.
1092
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:29,520
That is not, that is.
1093
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,800
Yeah, let me just climb around in the sky's brain
1094
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:32,960
for a while so it's there.
1095
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,080
And I'm going to go eat a snack while I'm doing it.
1096
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,280
Who says I got to get this thing all stitched up
1097
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:38,200
and closed up quickly?
1098
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:39,040
We're having fun.
1099
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:39,840
Let's get at this.
1100
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,600
Watch what I can make him do with his left hand.
1101
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,840
Let's check this out.
1102
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:45,160
Exactly, yeah, folks.
1103
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:46,040
So--
1104
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:47,120
And then we'll arrange that.
1105
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:48,320
The last thing I want to put out there,
1106
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:51,440
and I've sort of tried to rally against this
1107
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:52,880
for the most part of my kids because I've
1108
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,440
seen other parents do this with their kids, which is the not
1109
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,720
making your kids do things because you didn't like to do them
1110
00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:01,120
when you were their age.
1111
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:03,240
Like, I don't like to clean my room.
1112
00:43:03,240 --> 00:43:04,480
I didn't like to do it when I was a kid.
1113
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,680
Well, you also have a messy fucking house right now.
1114
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:10,520
So I don't like walking into your stinky house
1115
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,240
because you don't like to clean because you had to clean
1116
00:43:13,240 --> 00:43:15,200
when you were younger, when you were a kid.
1117
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,800
There's a reason why all that happened on just a basic health
1118
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:24,280
level, but sanitary functions being able to breathe
1119
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,160
in one's home, not walking in where there's mold.
1120
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:28,560
I mean, there's all kinds of things in there.
1121
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,000
So if you didn't like it, I'm sorry.
1122
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:31,360
You didn't like cleaning.
1123
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:33,440
But there's a reason that people do it.
1124
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,040
There's a reason that when you go to a restaurant
1125
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,280
or you go to a dining establishment,
1126
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:39,200
they have to keep it placed clean.
1127
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,840
What if they were pissed that they had to keep it so clean?
1128
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,160
When their parents owned a restaurant, now they're like,
1129
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,440
"Fuck it, we're just going to keep this place filthy."
1130
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:50,400
That's what puts the guy who goes in and rescues the bars
1131
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:51,400
and rescues the restaurants.
1132
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,400
It's put him in business because he goes in there
1133
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,520
and he's like, "What's with the rats running around your kitchen?"
1134
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,040
"Oh, my parents made me get rid of the rats when I was a kid,
1135
00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,800
so I don't like to do that anymore.
1136
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:01,400
I'm going to let the rats run around here."
1137
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,240
Well, you're fucking going to be closed down.
1138
00:44:03,240 --> 00:44:05,880
So I think that there's a point where you didn't like it
1139
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,640
and I appreciate that, but I think you can still explain
1140
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:10,760
to your kids what it was you didn't like about it
1141
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,080
and how it can be done differently
1142
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,160
so that the same result is there.
1143
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:18,960
The place is clean, it's tidy, it's sanitary,
1144
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:22,320
it's not, you know, there's no mold around the place.
1145
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:26,280
Those, I grew up with 16 fucking cats in my house, Chad.
1146
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:27,800
- Yeah. - 16 cats.
1147
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,440
It wasn't even a house.
1148
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,440
It was a kitty litter box with a chimney.
1149
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:32,800
That's what I grew up in.
1150
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,960
And you can't clean that.
1151
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:36,640
That's uncleanable.
1152
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:38,880
That's a, you fucking have to raise that building
1153
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,160
is what you have to do.
1154
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,720
So that's, I burn it.
1155
00:44:42,720 --> 00:44:45,600
I, yeah, and I so like, I'm not gonna go tell my kids,
1156
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,960
hey, I hated having to clean up cat shit
1157
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:49,680
because my mom wouldn't do it.
1158
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:51,440
So I'm not gonna make you do it.
1159
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,720
Like, you have to be able to explain the situation
1160
00:44:54,720 --> 00:44:57,520
and put it into terms where the result is still there.
1161
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,920
You don't, you don't want to raise an entire generation
1162
00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:01,360
of kids who think they don't have to do anything
1163
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:02,600
because they don't like it.
1164
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:03,880
That's not what this is about.
1165
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,160
Again, it goes back to work.
1166
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,400
It goes back to functioning in society
1167
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,560
but there's got to be a way that you're still going
1168
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,160
to interact with others at some point.
1169
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:13,000
And guess what?
1170
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,240
You're gonna have to do shit you don't like to do.
1171
00:45:15,240 --> 00:45:16,840
- Oh, 1,000%.
1172
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:21,000
That's especially when those people become parents
1173
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:22,480
and then they realize, oh shit,
1174
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,680
I'm the only one who is here to change my kids a diaper.
1175
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:26,520
- Yes.
1176
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:27,360
(laughing)
1177
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:28,200
- God.
1178
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:29,960
- You've got to be honest.
1179
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,040
I'll fucking, I will tell everyone
1180
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:33,080
I'm pointing at the camera here.
1181
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,480
I will tell every one of you new dads right now
1182
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,680
is scared as you are about changing
1183
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,560
a shitty diaper for your kids.
1184
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:44,000
As frightening as that seems,
1185
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,040
whatever it's gonna be, whatever you've built up
1186
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,040
to be in your imagination.
1187
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:52,960
There is not a better bonding moment with your child
1188
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,280
than cleaning that diaper.
1189
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:56,720
Looking at them in the face,
1190
00:45:56,720 --> 00:45:59,360
singing to them, talking to them when they're tiny
1191
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,480
and they're giggling and they're kicking,
1192
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,160
there is not a better bonding moment.
1193
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:05,920
So for all your boys,
1194
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,320
I don't wanna have to clean a dirty diaper.
1195
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:09,160
Fuck off.
1196
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,000
So you've got a kid now and go enjoy it.
1197
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,920
That's a moment in all of that diaper changing.
1198
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:16,440
You're never going to get back.
1199
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:20,080
So go and be a parent and let that be a point
1200
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,200
where you've got the ability to bond with your kid
1201
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:23,480
instead of making it this.
1202
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:27,240
- I refuse to do it because I don't wanna get my hands dirty.
1203
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:29,360
- Two things, one, preach it brother.
1204
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,240
Two, changing a diaper allows you
1205
00:46:32,240 --> 00:46:35,280
when they're teenagers and/or at their wedding.
1206
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:36,120
(laughing)
1207
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,840
You have to tell them, hey, you know what,
1208
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:40,360
I used to wipe your ass.
1209
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:41,200
- Yes.
1210
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:42,480
- It's a grime in them.
1211
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,200
Fuck them, you can tell their new found us.
1212
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:46,040
- What friends?
1213
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,320
- Or you want to be a very dead wedding.
1214
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,160
- Yeah, you know, I'm a dad.
1215
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,320
I'm gonna make a speech and I'm gonna say in the speech,
1216
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:55,520
yes, I remember when I used to wipe your ass.
1217
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,560
I mean, that's-- - Remember when you had that time
1218
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,120
that the shit exploded out of your diaper, do you remember?
1219
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:01,200
'Cause I remember that.
1220
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:02,200
I was there.
1221
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:03,640
I had to clean that up.
1222
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:05,280
- Do you remember that time on the airplane
1223
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,320
where I caught all of your vomit in a blanket?
1224
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:08,240
Yeah, that was me.
1225
00:47:08,240 --> 00:47:09,240
That was me.
1226
00:47:09,240 --> 00:47:12,280
- Remember when you were running around on the water pad
1227
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,600
in your bathing suit and you just shit yourself
1228
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:15,800
right there in the middle of it?
1229
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:16,800
'Cause I remember that.
1230
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,120
I was there for that.
1231
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:18,960
- I was there.
1232
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:19,800
- Yeah.
1233
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:20,800
- So those are great moments folks,
1234
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,760
is to be able to relive those later.
1235
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:26,200
So like my buddy here, Bauer San,
1236
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,600
absolutely 1,000% do it.
1237
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:33,600
Because later on, that's comedy gold, that's all I'm saying.
1238
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,320
It's comedy, but it's bonding too.
1239
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:36,800
And you're not-- - You're not, you're not--
1240
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:37,800
- Guess what you're not serious.
1241
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:38,640
- That's the serious reason.
1242
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,480
- You're not gonna get that anyplace else.
1243
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,160
So take it for what it's worth
1244
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,240
and don't be such a Sally about the shit part of it.
1245
00:47:46,240 --> 00:47:47,160
Just deal with it.
1246
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:48,000
You're gonna be a grown,
1247
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,160
you're gonna have so much more to deal with.
1248
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:51,520
You're gonna have so much more now.
1249
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:53,440
- Oh, just like 'til they're teenagers.
1250
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:54,600
- Yes, yes.
1251
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:56,000
(laughing)
1252
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,400
Wait 'til you find out they've got a Snapchat account
1253
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,080
and what they're fucking putting out there.
1254
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,760
Then you can start to worry.
1255
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,120
But now, just clean a diaper or two, bro.
1256
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:04,960
- No, it's easy.
1257
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:06,880
- It's simple, it's simple, it's basic.
1258
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:07,800
- Clean it up.
1259
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:09,520
- Yeah, nothing wrong with that.
1260
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,720
All right, we're getting ready to take a break here
1261
00:48:11,720 --> 00:48:12,560
when we come back.
1262
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,240
The things that our parents did in the 1980s
1263
00:48:15,240 --> 00:48:16,480
when we were growing up,
1264
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:17,920
you can get away with now.
1265
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:19,640
I don't think you can get away with it now.
1266
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:21,920
I wouldn't suggest trying to get away with it now.
1267
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:23,360
And I would think that most people,
1268
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,040
I'm looking back on it, at least two or three of these things
1269
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:27,160
should have been illegal.
1270
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:30,560
My dad should be--
1271
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:31,720
- I'm sure.
1272
00:48:31,720 --> 00:48:33,800
- On Alcatraz still, because--
1273
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,720
- Honestly, I'm surprised.
1274
00:48:36,720 --> 00:48:40,040
- You could find some, there's some serious,
1275
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,240
like the child protective services
1276
00:48:42,240 --> 00:48:43,840
would have something to say about this shit.
1277
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,240
- Yeah, I'm surprised I'm not dead from lung cancer, to be honest.
1278
00:48:47,240 --> 00:48:48,080
I mean--
1279
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:49,840
- Right after that, the amount of times.
1280
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:53,720
Number one on the list, there must have been friends
1281
00:48:53,720 --> 00:48:57,160
that we had that never survived because of this.
1282
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:01,240
There has to be, or are now like incapacitated.
1283
00:49:01,240 --> 00:49:02,080
And you know what I mean?
1284
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:02,920
Like--
1285
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:03,840
- Yeah, oh yeah.
1286
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,080
- All right, we'll talk about what those things were
1287
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:07,920
in the '80s and how they could never,
1288
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,960
absolutely never happen again these days
1289
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,200
when we were turning here on the dad's own podcasts.
1290
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:15,800
(upbeat music)
1291
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:22,120
- This is this is a clearly, clearly not
1292
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,320
metrosexual moment, moment in history.
1293
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:26,320
Crazy horse.
1294
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,600
Celebrated for his ferocity and battle,
1295
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:32,480
Crazy horse was recognized among the Lakota Indians as a visionary leader.
1296
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:36,480
In 1876, the US War Department ordered all Lakota on the reservation
1297
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,000
and Crazy Horse, he didn't say, "Let's share.
1298
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,200
"Let's hold hands and sing kumbaya."
1299
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:42,960
He became a leader of the resistance.
1300
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,880
Further more he wrote in a battle on an angry Steve,
1301
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,800
not some pansy automobile, like a BW bug or a PT cruiser.
1302
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:53,400
Crazy horse famously said, "My lands are where my dead lie buried."
1303
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:55,360
A famous metrosexual once said,
1304
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:58,200
"My lands are where my prod alofers await purchase."
1305
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,240
Different round today, Crazy Horse would kick that guy's ass.
1306
00:50:01,240 --> 00:50:03,840
This has been Lee Camp for more funny crap.

00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,160
Ready for the hottest and menopausal entertainment.
1314
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,680
Prepare yourself for church women gone wild.
1315
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:21,840
Direct from St. Josephine's bake sale.
1316
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:23,120
They're crazy.
1317
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:24,480
They're out of control.
1318
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,080
Faith cancels, church women gone wild.
1319
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:29,520
It's all the girl on girl, knee high stocking
1320
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,240
in barricose veins you can stand
1321
00:50:31,240 --> 00:50:33,480
from the holy water wet t-shirt contest
1322
00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,120
to accepting sacraments in their granny pennies.
1323
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,800
Church women gone wild are off their neilers and other knees.
1324
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:41,960
To please, for God.
1325

2499 for only the audio.
1327
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,800
Seriously, that's kind of creepy and gross.
1328
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:54,440
Too dirty for the Vatican, too h etto for the priesthood.
1329
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:56,200
It's church women gone wild.
1330
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,640
Once this is over, you'll pray for forgiveness.

(upbeat music)
1333
00:51:03,660 --> 00:51:08,600
Welcome back to the dad's own podcast.
1334
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:13,480
Still to come, try to capture the whole
1335
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,520
of parenting in one social media post.
1336
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:21,520
And you think the worst parent of the year, 20, 25 contests
1337
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:26,000
is getting ready to wrap up all notes
1338
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:26,840
is heating up my breath.
1339
00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:29,560
We are officially in March.
1340
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,480
So when you start looking at bracketology,
1341
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,760
we're ready to get into the parenting
1342
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,600
that is the worst of 20, 25.
1343
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:40,000
And this may be, as I take a look at this chat,
1344
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,080
and I might be wrong, we'll have to discuss this further.
1345
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:45,360
I think we're getting pretty close to this being
1346
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:48,280
the end of the 20, 25 entries
1347
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,000
because we are, we are that close to starting the brackets
1348
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:52,600
in the comments. - Yeah, time to throw them in the brackets.
1349
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:53,840
- Yeah. - Yeah.
1350
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:57,720
We'll have to get the interns to create
1351
00:51:57,720 --> 00:52:01,240
this little bracket chart with all the parents on it.
1352
00:52:01,240 --> 00:52:02,200
- Yes, yes, yes.
1353
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:03,840
And by interns, you mean the sweatshop kids?
1354
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,040
I had told that. - That's yeah.
1355
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:07,920
- 'Cause I think that that's, we're close.
1356
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:08,760
We're there.
1357
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:10,120
We're ready to start working on these brackets
1358
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:11,960
and formulating who's the worst of the worst.
1359
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:16,120
And so today may be one of the last entries that we have.
1360
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,320
So it'll be that important when you start thinking about
1361
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,640
who really gets cast as the worst parent of 20, 25.
1362
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:24,560
This entry could mean something that's desperately important,
1363
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:26,840
not just to the space available,
1364
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:30,240
but then who are they gonna be taking on down the road
1365
00:52:30,240 --> 00:52:33,120
and really walk away as the champ of the worst parent of 20, 25.
1366
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:39,520
All right, that said, our parents, they didn't know,
1367
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:43,040
I'm gonna give them this, they didn't know any better.
1368
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,280
The technology that they had wasn't nearly the technology
1369
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,400
that you and I have had while our kids,
1370
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:52,280
seniors in high school, our eldest, our, our,
1371
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:53,800
we've been growing up, right?
1372
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,280
The technology has been far and away improved for them
1373
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,040
compared to when we were growing up.
1374
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:02,640
And that is proven by some of the parenting techniques
1375
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,720
that we went through, we saw, we were a part of
1376
00:53:05,720 --> 00:53:08,160
where we saw some friends go through,
1377
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:11,440
but understanding what the parenting life was like
1378
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,000
in the 80s and what we had to deal with as kids.
1379
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,920
How did we survive that, Chad the dad?
1380
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,200
I don't know, only your mustache can tell.
1381
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:22,360
But let's take a look at some of the things
1382
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:24,640
that we could never get away with now.
1383
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:26,880
Not only could we never get away with it.
1384
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,280
In a lot of these cases, I'm gonna say in the handful
1385
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,640
of them, we could be cited and ticketed.
1386
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:35,400
We could, we could have, you know, we could have,
1387
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:36,600
- We could have a record, so I say,
1388
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:37,760
- We could have a record.
1389
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:41,480
- Yes, you could have in any given state,
1390
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,480
you could have people chasing you down
1391
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:47,400
for treating your kids poorly by doing some of these things.
1392
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,880
And this was just normal parenting in the 80s.
1393
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,720
This was every day, every kid on your block,
1394
00:53:52,720 --> 00:53:56,280
on my block did this because their parents had them do this.
1395
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:57,760
So I'll start with the number one,
1396
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,680
which I don't know how I didn't die.
1397
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:04,440
I don't know how I didn't end up with more brain injury
1398
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:09,440
than I currently have, but we had seatbelts.
1399
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:14,080
I mean, the seatbelts nowadays, you've got the strap
1400
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,680
that comes across the chest, it securely fits in there.
1401
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:17,920
It's got, you know, it's got a knife,
1402
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,040
you could adjust the height so that, you know,
1403
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:21,920
it comes across the shoulder at the right place
1404
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:22,760
and across your chest.
1405
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:24,840
You're not choking people out on the neck.
1406
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:26,840
There's all kinds of, we didn't have that
1407
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,840
in my dad's 1976 Ford Pinto wagon
1408
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:31,640
with the fake paneling on the side.
1409
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:35,880
We had one belt that strapped across your waist,
1410
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,000
and that, you had to cinch that up
1411
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,280
so that you could sit into place relatively safely,
1412
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,960
but dad and mom never really cared about it.
1413
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,640
It was not a big deal.
1414
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:46,480
- No.
1415
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:47,720
- Well, it was not law.
1416
00:54:47,720 --> 00:54:48,720
- No.
1417
00:54:48,720 --> 00:54:49,560
- Right.
1418
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:50,720
- And God knows.
1419
00:54:50,720 --> 00:54:52,400
- Yeah, we absolutely rode around like that
1420
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:53,240
without seatbelts.
1421
00:54:53,240 --> 00:54:56,120
I mean, I can't tell you even, I remember very clearly
1422
00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:58,720
like when the law changed and my parents were like,
1423
00:54:58,720 --> 00:55:00,400
seatbelts, fuck that.
1424
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,520
I mean, like seriously, like I remember,
1425
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,600
like you know, as a kid, you're like,
1426
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:06,680
oh, well, they changed the law,
1427
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:07,920
I gotta wear seatbelts now, right?
1428
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:09,960
Like, I gotta be a rule follower
1429
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:10,880
and my parents are like,
1430
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:12,600
(blows raspberry)
1431
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:13,440
(blows raspberry)
1432
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:14,280
- Yes.
1433
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:15,440
- They're like shut the fuck up.
1434
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:16,480
That's what they wanted to say.
1435
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:17,880
That's what they wanted to say to you.
1436
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:18,920
(laughs)
1437
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:20,080
They wanted to go, hey, you know what?
1438
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:21,080
The seatbel thing?
1439
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:22,400
- Shut the fuck up.
1440
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:23,480
- Thank you.
1441
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:24,320
We haven't needed it.
1442
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:25,160
We didn't have it.
1443
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:27,440
We didn't even have seatbelts when we were kids.
1444
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:28,440
- Yeah. - So, look, that's right.
1445
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:29,280
- I'm alive.
1446
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:34,600
- Not only that, but if you had the family wagon,
1447
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,760
you didn't even have seatbelts in the back of the wagon.
1448
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:38,760
Where everybody was supposed to sit,
1449
00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:40,040
it was like built for the kids.
1450
00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:41,200
There was bench seating,
1451
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,640
depending on how big the station wagon was,
1452
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,240
for you to sit with a bunch of your friends
1453
00:55:45,240 --> 00:55:47,400
where everybody's knees were kind of knocking together
1454
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:52,000
in the center there, but it was like a u-shaped seating arrangement
1455
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,360
and there wasn't a damn belt in any of those places.
1456
00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:55,760
Certainly no kind of a harness.
1457
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:58,440
It was just you, not only that,
1458
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:00,680
we're about riding in the back of a truck.
1459
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:01,880
- Oh, God. - People just used to ride
1460
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,600
in the back of a truck without any belts there.
1461
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:08,160
They had a fucking car called a Subaru Brat
1462
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:12,000
that had seats in the back of the truck.
1463
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:13,880
With no seat, they had handles.
1464
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,160
You could hold on to the handles like you were in a fucking
1465
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:20,040
circus ride, but they didn't have any seatbelts for you.
1466
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:23,120
So any belts in the row, you're bumping out of the back
1467
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:25,520
of the truck, you're catching air.
1468
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:28,120
And that was like a selling point
1469
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:30,520
was that they had seats back there for you to sit
1470
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:32,320
in the back of the Subaru Brat.
1471
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:36,440
So Jesus, I don't know how more of us didn't die
1472
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,400
from that Chad than any of these.
1473
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:43,400
- Some of us did, but yeah, probably a lot less these days.
1474
00:56:44,240 --> 00:56:48,400
You would guarantee it summertime.
1475
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:51,360
You would see at least, I would say once a week,
1476
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,320
if I try to average it out, one person driving around
1477
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,760
with, by the way, not obeying any speed limit
1478
00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,600
whatsoever in a neighborhood,
1479
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,720
with their truck and a dog in the back of the truck,
1480
00:57:02,720 --> 00:57:04,840
like just bouncing around as well.
1481
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:06,440
Like you'd say, how did I-
1482
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,520
- I live in Texas, that should happen today.
1483
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,440
- Jesus, still that's happening, Texas is a good point.
1484
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,440
(laughing)
1485
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:15,520
- Not just a dog, like you got a family of dogs.
1486
00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:17,720
- Look, they got the puppies in the back too, that's great.
1487
00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:18,560
That's fun.
1488
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:23,080
I'll bring this up because I saw it again
1489
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,400
in the bird cage, the smoking around kids.
1490
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:26,400
That wasn't a problem.
1491
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:27,240
They didn't have a problem.
1492
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,840
You could get on a fucking plane, a tube in the air
1493
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:33,480
with very little ventilation and just light up a heater
1494
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:37,520
on the flight to across country with kids here.
1495
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:40,080
- I can't tell you how many, how many days,
1496
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:43,960
hours, months, weeks that I spent in a car.
1497
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:45,480
So I'm gripping Colorado, right?
1498
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:49,320
Winter time, cold outside, windows are up.
1499
00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:52,240
Parents smoking in the car, windows closed.
1500
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:56,000
Which, like why I haven't died of lung cancer
1501
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,760
at the point of my life is in mystery.
1502
00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:02,520
But yeah, like I remember so clearly,
1503
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:05,640
like just being like, oh god damn it, you're gonna smoke again.
1504
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:08,840
I'm like, you're trying to hold my breath
1505
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,200
for as long as possible and like, you know,
1506
00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:14,160
breathe like maybe there was fresh air under the seat
1507
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:16,400
for me, because I didn't wear a seatbelt
1508
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:17,720
so I could climb under the seat.
1509
00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:18,560
- You could be right down the seat.
1510
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:20,320
- I'm gonna be trying to breathe some of that fresh air down there.
1511
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:21,720
- Just to add to that a little bit,
1512
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,200
and the way that the cars were built back then,
1513
00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:25,600
not everybody had air conditioning.
1514
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,000
Air conditioning was a luxury for a lot of people
1515
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,840
in the late 70s and early 80s.
1516
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:33,200
And so you would be lucky in my dad's board, Pinto,
1517
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:35,600
that he would roll down the window a little bit.
1518
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:36,800
Yeah, actually roll it down.
1519
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:38,720
You didn't have a button you pressed the roll down,
1520
00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:40,880
you had to actually, with the crank,
1521
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,560
turn the crank to roll your window up or down
1522
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,000
depending on how it went,
1523
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,040
or if you were lucky enough to be a kid in the back seat,
1524
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:49,680
while mom and dad were smoking,
1525
00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:51,960
they didn't even have a window that you could roll down
1526
00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:53,720
that these little pop out windows,
1527
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:55,120
they would look like a lock,
1528
00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:57,880
and it would give you about a maybe an inch and a half
1529
00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:00,000
worth of space for air to come in.
1530
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:01,000
- Not even that.
1531
00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,160
- Three quarters of an inch if you're lucky.
1532
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:05,760
- Yeah, so that was the fresh air that you were getting.
1533
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:07,160
And what that actually did is,
1534
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:08,720
if they didn't roll their window down the front,
1535
00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:10,800
it just blew the smoke that would go,
1536
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:12,280
the air would come in through the back windows,
1537
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,920
go to the front and blow the smoke right back to you.
1538
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:16,720
(laughing)
1539
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:19,160
- Yeah, the, what those were were vents for the smoke
1540
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,520
from the front of the car to come to the back of the car
1541
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:23,520
where you were to go out those windows.
1542
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,320
So as you're sitting there like trying to suck
1543
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,080
some fresh air out of that little three quarters
1544
00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:29,360
of an inch, just like,
1545
00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:31,480
you're basically all you're doing is just breathing the smoke
1546
00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,720
that was killing, you know, exiting the vehicle.
1547
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,480
- And yet every year, as I watch planes, trains,
1548
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:38,960
and automobiles and John Candy like that car on fire
1549
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:40,360
with his cigarettes in,
1550
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:43,920
I never have stopped to think about God, that's exactly what,
1551
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:45,880
you know, it could have been that kind of danger
1552
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:48,240
that we were going in with our parents who were like,
1553
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:50,760
I love you, but I gotta have my Virginia Slim.
1554
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:51,600
So.
1555
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:53,480
(laughing)
1556
00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:56,360
- Yeah, I don't love you as much as I love my Virginia Slim.
1557
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:57,560
- I love my Virginia Slim.
1558
00:59:57,560 --> 00:59:59,200
- Plants, like a lot more.
1559
00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:02,320
I mean, like, you're, I'll see you when I go to put you to bed
1560
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,320
and we'll have time, but I gotta have this Virginia Slim,
1561
01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:05,720
you know, because of you right now,
1562
01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:06,560
that's what I have to do.
1563
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:08,360
- Right, I'm sure that's why.
1564
01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:12,600
- Again, we, we grew up at a time where we were latch key kids.
1565
01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:14,760
So our parents seemingly didn't give a shit,
1566
01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:18,480
like as long as you could get to your house and open the door,
1567
01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,280
or you maybe, you know, as I started to get older,
1568
01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:23,040
they'd put a key hide it someplace, right?
1569
01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:25,400
They'd have one of those fake rocks in the yard
1570
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:26,680
that had a key hidden in it,
1571
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,320
or they'd have the magnetized thing under the car,
1572
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:30,840
or wherever for you to be able to get the key,
1573
01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:32,320
so you could open the door and get it.
1574
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,680
But early on, it was just, everything was unlocked,
1575
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:36,680
good to go, just like getting the house,
1576
01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:38,680
and then go do what you wanted to do.
1577
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:41,040
Logging's like, got your homework done, you're good to go.
1578
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:44,600
Just be back before the lights go out on the street.
1579
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,440
- You could do so much shit.
1580
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:50,000
We never did, like we just were playing baseball all the time,
1581
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:51,160
I never did.
1582
01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:55,720
- It's, that's the 80s version of free range parenting,
1583
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,600
really, and it was just all pretty.
1584
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:00,960
- Yeah, it was, yeah, it was called parenting, like that.
1585
01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:02,520
(laughing)
1586
01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:06,000
But yeah, that unsupervised time really allowed us
1587
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,040
to have this level of creativity,
1588
01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:10,120
and like, you know, making up the game,
1589
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:11,600
these around baseball, or like, I mean,
1590
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:13,000
I can't say how many hours we played,
1591
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:14,480
kicked the can, right?
1592
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:16,720
Summer time, we're out of school,
1593
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,240
all the kids in the neighborhood get together,
1594
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:20,720
play that shit for hours.
1595
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:22,040
- Yeah, hours and hours and hours.
1596
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:24,840
- On you, it was like a stick and a rock,
1597
01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:26,440
and I would hit that like it was a baseball.
1598
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:29,160
We would find shit to do.
1599
01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:32,480
But that said, your parents were nowhere to be found.
1600
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:33,320
- Yeah.
1601
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:34,920
- They were working, they were doing something.
1602
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:36,200
They weren't following you,
1603
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:38,240
they weren't taking you to a park and watching you on a
1604
01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:39,400
child-lay date.
1605
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:40,960
Like that didn't happen.
1606
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:42,720
- Child care was not an industry back then.
1607
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:44,360
(laughing)
1608
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:46,760
- No, the only time you had a sitter
1609
01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:49,120
was when your parents were going out to like, you know,
1610
01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:51,040
there was some sort of a Christmas party
1611
01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:52,520
for the company or dad worked at,
1612
01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:55,200
and you didn't have a sitter every day of the week,
1613
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:56,040
or you know what I mean?
1614
01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:59,040
Like there was nobody to take you and to make you,
1615
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,520
I had to make myself lunch or make myself
1616
01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:02,520
on my brother lunch.
1617
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:04,400
There was nobody there to do any of that.
1618
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:05,640
We had to do all of that.
1619
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:08,600
So that was the thing that got me like,
1620
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:11,560
they could just, your parents could just
1621
01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:12,600
fucking abandon you.
1622
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:13,880
And they felt like, all right,
1623
01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:15,960
please not gonna kill himself will be in good shape.
1624
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:17,840
And I don't know what that test was.
1625
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:18,680
I don't know where it was.
1626
01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:20,600
We're like, okay, seems like,
1627
01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,640
I mean, we have a fire escape plan in place,
1628
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:25,760
and we're on a, I mean, it's a ranch, it's a one story.
1629
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:26,600
You're not going any place.
1630
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:27,840
We have a fire escape in place.
1631
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,400
He's had earthquake drills at school.
1632
01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:30,240
He's good.
1633
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:31,080
Let's just let him do it.
1634
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:32,080
All good.
1635
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,320
I mean, there was so many things that could go wrong,
1636
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:35,600
but didn't.
1637
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:39,680
And somehow the fact that my parents were never around,
1638
01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:41,520
and we could do whatever we wanted,
1639
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,440
that's, I don't think that could happen these days.
1640
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:45,280
You would never see anything like that happen.
1641
01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:46,480
We just got to play day.
1642
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:49,080
We just got to be at the park at some place with a nanny
1643
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:50,760
or somebody else's parents.
1644
01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:52,280
And then you got to meet their parents there
1645
01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:53,480
and you got to have coffee.
1646
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:55,320
And then you can only play for a certain amount of time
1647
01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:57,320
before you get them to the next big event.
1648
01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:58,520
I didn't have any of those events.
1649
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:00,000
I played little league and that was it.
1650
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:01,280
That's all that ever happened.
1651
01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:03,120
So what I hear you saying,
1652
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:06,520
Bauer is that you were longing for the old days
1653
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:08,800
where you could just give your kid a key
1654
01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:11,320
and just tell him to do whatever the fact they want.
1655
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:12,840
And you don't have to worry about it.
1656
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,080
It's so weird because when my kids were little,
1657
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:16,520
I couldn't even think about that.
1658
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,440
I couldn't be like, just come back with the lights.
1659
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:20,280
Come on.
1660
01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:21,680
There's no way.
1661
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:22,840
You imagine saying that.
1662
01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:23,680
You're seven.
1663
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:24,680
You don't know what that means.
1664
01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:26,720
I couldn't ever say that to Charlie.
1665
01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:28,200
I couldn't say that to Lucky Noun.
1666
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:29,520
She's going to be 11 this week.
1667
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:32,200
I could never just be like, just come back with the lights.
1668
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:33,040
Come on.
1669
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:34,040
I don't care who's house.
1670
01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:35,840
I don't know where you are.
1671
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:36,840
Don't even know.
1672
01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:37,840
Try it.
1673
01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:38,840
Just try it.
1674
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:39,840
Tell her, tell her.
1675
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:41,000
Just get out of the house.
1676
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:41,840
Don't come back to the lights.
1677
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:42,840
Come on.
1678
01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:43,840
In the street.
1679
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:44,840
You imagine it.
1680
01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:46,640
Holy shit.
1681
01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:48,280
I don't need to know where you are.
1682
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:49,560
Who's house you're at.
1683
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,160
I don't give a fuck just as long as you come home.
1684
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,280
Or you've got to be close enough to hear me yell down the street.
1685
01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:56,720
So that when you hear me,
1686
01:03:56,720 --> 01:04:00,800
the dinners ready, then you know to come and be right here.
1687
01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:05,840
That's all you, that was the only responsibility you had.
1688
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:06,840
Oh, the ladies.
1689
01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:09,240
How do we survive that?
1690
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:10,240
Spanking is a discipline.
1691
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:11,240
I don't even think we need to go in there.
1692
01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:14,440
There's nobody who's doing anything like that.
1693
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:15,440
Wow.
1694
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:19,400
Okay, not, not disciplining my parent, my children, but, you know,
1695
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:20,880
between being Paula, we'll just--
1696
01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:22,280
Totally different scenario.
1697
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:24,120
That goes back to the it and how you cure the it.
1698
01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:26,320
Just a little, a little spank here.
1699
01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:27,320
And there's nothing bad.
1700
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:30,200
It's not, it's not.
1701
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:33,920
We see this a lot on the worst parents of the year
1702
01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:36,400
when we bring those stories in here,
1703
01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:40,240
but sitting on a kid sitting on a parent's lap while they're driving.
1704
01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:41,760
That's how I learned how to drive.
1705
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:42,920
I mean, it's so much--
1706
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:43,920
Oh, God.
1707
01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:45,360
Well, I mean, exadurate.
1708
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:46,360
So, but I--
1709
01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:47,360
You were six.
1710
01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:48,360
I remember getting it.
1711
01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:49,360
I was 16, said on my dad's lap.
1712
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:51,440
It was fun.
1713
01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:54,080
No, but I mean, I remember being seven, eight, nine years old,
1714
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,240
like, you know, my dad let me drive.
1715
01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:57,240
Like--
1716
01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:58,240
Yeah.
1717
01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:01,160
I remember we lived on this, like, long road
1718
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:04,600
that was all uphill to our house.
1719
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:09,560
And I was maybe, I don't know, 11, 12, 13 years old.
1720
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:12,000
And I'd be like, yeah, come on, dad.
1721
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:14,080
And so, yeah, he'd let me sit on his lap.
1722
01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:16,760
And I, you know, we drive up the hill.
1723
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:18,920
I get to drive, like, on the road.
1724
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:19,920
No, so--
1725
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:20,920
Yeah, I was--
1726
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:23,960
I mean, dangerous as fuck, I'm sure.
1727
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:24,960
Sure.
1728
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:25,960
I can't even think about it.
1729
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:30,120
And I will say, probably driving back then a little different
1730
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:33,200
than it is today, the vehicles weren't as sophisticated.
1731
01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:36,720
People didn't drive 75 miles an hour on a 25 mile an hour.
1732
01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:37,720
It was a--
1733
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:38,720
Good point.
1734
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:39,720
Well, I mean, like they do here in Texas, but--
1735
01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:42,200
Well, you couldn't drive 75 miles an hour anyway.
1736
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:43,200
Yeah, that's true.
1737
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:44,200
Like, car seat.
1738
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:46,480
Yeah, and cars really didn't ever go that fast.
1739
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:48,560
You couldn't, you know, you'd have to spend a lot of money
1740
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:50,000
on a core van or some shit.
1741
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:52,400
Or you'd have to have some really old-school big engine
1742
01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:53,680
Mustang, anything to do.
1743
01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:55,240
And it'd be able to make that work.
1744
01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:55,920
Yeah.
1745
01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:59,880
Yeah, so yeah, that was never a--
1746
01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:02,080
Anyway, so yeah, that's how I--
1747
01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:03,520
I did that as a kid.
1748
01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:04,360
Yeah.
1749
01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:06,160
I will add just a couple of other quick ones here
1750
01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:08,320
before move on, because we're going to have to get to some tweets
1751
01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:11,280
or posts technically, because we're going to dive into a little bit
1752
01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:14,680
of a blue sky to try to find some parenting posts
1753
01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:15,960
that we think are good.
1754
01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:17,240
Helmets.
1755
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:20,440
You can't see kids without helmets doing anything these days.
1756
01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:24,280
Be it skateboarding, skiing, riding bikes,
1757
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,400
they've got to have helmets for everything.
1758
01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:28,960
And we--
1759
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:31,000
If you had a helmet when we were growing up,
1760
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:32,000
it was because you were--
1761
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:32,800
There was something wrong with you.
1762
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:34,120
There was something wrong with you.
1763
01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,360
[LAUGHTER]
1764
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:38,280
I mean, wrong to say, but that's the truth.
1765
01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:38,480
Like you do.
1766
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:39,680
It's the truth.
1767
01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:44,080
That's how we knew those kids were.
1768
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:45,520
Because all the rest of us were all like,
1769
01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:47,400
why does Dave have a helmet?
1770
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:49,080
Oh, shit, that's Dave?
1771
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:50,160
That's Dave.
1772
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:51,000
Oh, damn.
1773
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:52,000
OK.
1774
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:54,040
He must have been riding in the back of Dad's station,
1775
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:55,800
why are you going to get--
1776
01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:58,560
himself for trying to get the fresh air out of the seat.
1777
01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:01,320
Holy shit.
1778
01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:02,720
There used to be a time.
1779
01:07:02,720 --> 01:07:05,160
I know that's impossible to think of nowadays,
1780
01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:07,520
because we've got television shows and movies,
1781
01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:10,800
and I swear to God, I opened Instagram the other day,
1782
01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:15,320
and just saw a woman breastfeeding her kid on Instagram.
1783
01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:18,280
And I didn't turn away.
1784
01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:21,600
I'm just saying, there used to be a time
1785
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,440
when people just fed their kids baby formula.
1786
01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:27,240
My mom always talked about there was never
1787
01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:31,200
the concern about breastfeeding, like there is nowadays.
1788
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:34,320
And it was just all baby formula exclusively,
1789
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:37,240
like not even-- and sometimes you barely got baby formula.
1790
01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:39,280
As soon as you were able to eat solid foods,
1791
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:41,280
you were boom, you were transitioned right in there.
1792
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:43,840
You were done with any kind of formula,
1793
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:47,840
which is, I think, why I love steak so much these days.
1794
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:49,280
Ribs.
1795
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:50,960
There was eating ribs at eight months.
1796
01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:51,800
I don't know.
1797
01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:53,600
But I do think that that is something
1798
01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:57,800
that you would, again, you would get literally called out.
1799
01:07:57,800 --> 01:08:00,520
You would be-- you would get yourself--
1800
01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:01,200
You're in top of--
1801
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:02,000
Oh, my god.
1802
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:03,000
For real?
1803
01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:05,880
You would get your address and socials put out there.
1804
01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:07,840
If you weren't breastfeeding your kid,
1805
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,680
you would become the center of a commute.
1806
01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:12,720
If they could burn you at a steak like a witch,
1807
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:14,600
because you weren't breastfeeding your kid,
1808
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:18,040
you would be burned at that steak.
1809
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:18,640
Truth.
1810
01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:23,520
You would be Rebecca Nurse at the Salem Witch Trials, holy shit.
1811
01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:25,920
And then the last one was--
1812
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:29,760
And again, I say it's because I'm definitely concerned about it.
1813
01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:32,920
And we've seen so many bad stories that have happened
1814
01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:35,600
since the time that my 17-year-old daughter's been born.
1815
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:37,480
But it used to be a time--
1816
01:08:37,480 --> 01:08:39,840
Chad, nobody cared if you left your kid in the car.
1817
01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:42,520
Parked.
1818
01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:44,040
Gross restored.
1819
01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:44,840
Oh, come on.
1820
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:46,720
Yeah, I know that happened.
1821
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:48,800
I got left in the car, for sure.
1822
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:49,480
Yeah.
1823
01:08:49,480 --> 01:08:51,280
I don't have any distinct memories of it.
1824
01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:53,200
But yeah, if you left your kid in the car today,
1825
01:08:53,200 --> 01:09:01,080
just sit there, the car running, or not, either way.
1826
01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:03,400
Back then, people wouldn't blink at night.
1827
01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:04,840
It's like, oh, yeah, I did that yesterday.
1828
01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:05,680
Yeah.
1829
01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:06,520
Today?
1830
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:08,880
Yeah, the police would be there when you came out of the car.
1831
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:11,640
Someone in that-- someone had just pulled into that parking lot
1832
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:12,440
and saw the--
1833
01:09:12,440 --> 01:09:13,600
I mean, they do with dogs.
1834
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,040
They see an animal or something alive in that car.
1835
01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,480
They will break the window to try to rescue them.
1836
01:09:18,480 --> 01:09:20,480
Like, the kid was sleeping.
1837
01:09:20,480 --> 01:09:22,600
I mean, there have been times, as a parent,
1838
01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:25,280
I'm sure you have experiences, too, where you pull up.
1839
01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:29,480
You get home from a long road trip, or maybe it's even just
1840
01:09:29,480 --> 01:09:33,120
from the kids have gone jumping at the trampoline place
1841
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:34,840
and you're driving home in a few minutes.
1842
01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:37,680
You know, when I go to the bar, then I let him leave him in the car.
1843
01:09:37,680 --> 01:09:38,360
You at the casino?
1844
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:38,880
I know.
1845
01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:40,640
You're going to be there for a minute.
1846
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:42,080
Yeah, leave him in the car and I come home
1847
01:09:42,080 --> 01:09:43,080
and there are sleepers.
1848
01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:45,960
I give him a bottle of melatonin to play with for a little bit.
1849
01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:46,800
We're all good.
1850
01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:47,640
Who needs it?
1851
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:49,000
I mean, you can shake it around, right?
1852
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,360
What's the worst can happen?
1853
01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:54,320
But you get home and they're asleep and you're like,
1854
01:09:54,320 --> 01:09:55,080
they haven't nap.
1855
01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:56,400
They need to nap.
1856
01:09:56,400 --> 01:09:58,040
I'm going to let them sleep in the car.
1857
01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:01,160
I'm going to-- if it's a summertime and leave in the AC,
1858
01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:03,000
I'm going to go up in the house.
1859
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:04,400
I'm going to check on them every five minutes.
1860
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,480
I'll make them my way around, make sure they're still there.
1861
01:10:06,480 --> 01:10:09,360
But I'm going to let them sleep in the car because they need to sleep.
1862
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:11,880
And I've done that numerous times.
1863
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:14,200
And even to the point where I've maybe even for an hour,
1864
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:15,560
they sleep in the car and then I go down.
1865
01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:18,400
All right, I'm going to wake them up and bring them back in.
1866
01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:20,600
And that's why you pull into the garage and shut the door,
1867
01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:22,080
leaving with the car running.
1868
01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:25,920
I mean, obviously, so evil.
1869
01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:27,480
So evil.
1870
01:10:27,480 --> 01:10:29,160
You're really sure they're getting that down.
1871
01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:30,920
You know they're getting their nap at that point.
1872
01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:31,440
And they are.
1873
01:10:31,440 --> 01:10:32,920
That's definitely getting that down.
1874
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:35,200
Definitely getting their nap at that point.
1875
01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:36,720
And the last thing I'll just throw out there
1876
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:39,360
that I never took part in, never wanted to take part in.
1877
01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:41,520
But when we were growing up, wasn't a problem?
1878
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:42,760
Go hitchhike.
1879
01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:45,720
Give yourself a ride out there by thumbing it.
1880
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,160
The thumb out there, get yourself hitchhike,
1881
01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:49,320
get yourself a ride to wherever you need to get to.
1882
01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:50,200
No big deal.
1883
01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:53,480
Somebody, I'm sure a nice person will drive by in their car
1884
01:10:53,480 --> 01:10:54,960
and see you there on the side of the road
1885
01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,880
and just pick you up and take you wherever you need to go for nothing.
1886
01:10:57,880 --> 01:10:59,080
No gas money, no nothing.
1887
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:00,640
Just go ahead and hitchhike your way there.
1888
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:02,080
No, you would not.
1889
01:11:02,080 --> 01:11:03,840
That doesn't happen now.
1890
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:05,400
It's gas, grass or ass.
1891
01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:06,440
Nobody rides for free.
1892
01:11:06,440 --> 01:11:06,960
Come on.
1893
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:08,160
I think I've seen that bumper sticker.
1894
01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:09,480
I think I did see that bumper sticker.
1895
01:11:09,480 --> 01:11:11,920
It was very, very highlighted in the 1980s.
1896
01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:13,680
So it was a different time.
1897
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:15,440
And these are all outdated practices.
1898
01:11:15,440 --> 01:11:18,120
You would never see anybody do these days.
1899
01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:20,600
And I think in most of those cases,
1900
01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,040
like if you do call the police.
1901
01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:24,280
That's good to say.
1902
01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:25,800
Someone's getting cited.
1903
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:27,680
Child protective services will be called,
1904
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:29,400
you will be any one of those things
1905
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:30,880
you will be investigated for.
1906
01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:33,000
Seriously investigated for.
1907
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:34,920
And then we'll come down and they will question you.
1908
01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:35,840
They will question your kid
1909
01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:37,760
and then we'll question your neighbors all about you.
1910
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:40,280
So good luck with that being there.
1911
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:41,600
Look Mark this episode folks.
1912
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:43,600
This is going to be valuable to you someday.
1913
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:44,440
Yeah.
1914
01:11:44,440 --> 01:11:46,920
When we come back, we'll try to see if we can encapsulate
1915
01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:49,600
the what it takes to be apparent here these days,
1916
01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:52,040
these days, not in the 80s, but these days.
1917
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:55,920
What it takes to be apparent by digging deep into
1918
01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:58,720
what it's like to post on social media.
1919
01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:00,680
And exactly what they share with us.
1920
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:02,080
And we talk about parenting next
1921
01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:04,200
for the post parenting post of the week
1922
01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:05,520
during the dad's home podcast.
1923
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:06,600
-Penic A channel.
1924
01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:07,760
-What is up?
1925
01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:09,800
-It's the second annual male group
1926
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:11,560
of the 4G competition.
1927
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:15,000
And he hits the hole right after Jesse opens it up.
1928
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,840
-What are your host, John Madden and Pat Summeral.
1929
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,640
-And then everyone's kind of slopping around down there
1930
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:22,240
and grunting and groaning.
1931
01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:24,240
You know, you get mud and stuff flying
1932
01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:27,640
and gang battles and scrums and quagmires.
1933
01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:29,320
-No fems, fats, or herries.
1934
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:33,720
Just the hunkiest gay studs and wild group action competition.
1935
01:12:33,720 --> 01:12:35,680
-I like to pack that bear round too.
1936
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:37,640
-Don't get carried away, John.
1937
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:40,400
-There were all kinds of stuff flying around their body.
1938
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:42,640
-It's male group sex to die for,
1939
01:12:42,640 --> 01:12:46,120
as described by the best play by play team in the biz.
1940
01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:47,480
-Yeah, that was the right one.
1941
01:12:47,480 --> 01:12:49,880
That one didn't come and didn't come and didn't come
1942
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:51,920
and finally they threw it out of there.
1943
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:52,920
-Woop.
1944
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:54,520
-I don't know where that one came from.
1945
01:12:54,520 --> 01:12:56,160
Look at that big old boy.
1946
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:57,160
-What a meal.
1947
01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:58,800
Those guys are having a good.
1948
01:12:58,800 --> 01:12:59,800
That's a good group.
1949
01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:01,960
-If you go nuts for tight bots.
1950
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:03,600
-You push, you push, you push.
1951
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:05,360
-Get gay purview today.
1952
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:06,840
-You just rode in backwards.
1953
01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:08,280
-You just went right on his back.
1954
01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:10,560
-Would pat some roll and John Madden.
1955
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:13,960
-That looked like it was the last shot out of the Roman candle.
1956
01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:18,160
-The second annual male group orgy competition on gay purview.
1957
01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:20,680
-I like to pack that bear round too, boy.
1958
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:21,200
Yeah.
1959
01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:23,480
-He's got a fire into his guy right here.
1960
01:13:23,480 --> 01:13:28,120
-Call 1-800-Hey, cutie, the order today.
1961
01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:30,640
-A naked man mingles freely in a locker room.
1962
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:32,000
It's the Onion Radio News.
1963
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:33,240
I'm Doyle Redland.
1964
01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:38,600
Bali Total Fitness Patron Fred Lippman, age 42, took an after-shower stroll today.
1965
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:41,200
Casually greeting numerous men in the locker room.
1966
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:44,800
His flaccid penis and talcumputtered scrotum in plain view.
1967
01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:49,400
He socialized for approximately 15 minutes in a state of total undress.
1968
01:13:49,400 --> 01:13:53,440
The buck naked Lippman then went on to sit in the most visible spot in the locker room
1969
01:13:53,440 --> 01:13:58,520
and apply anti-fungal cream to his feet before finally putting on a towel.
1970
01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:00,640
Doyle Redland for the Onion Radio News.
1971
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:29,440
Online at the Onion.com.
1972
01:14:29,440 --> 01:14:33,640
You ever seen adults get a phone call from one of their parents?
1973
01:14:33,640 --> 01:14:35,760
You think it was a debt collector?
1974
01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:37,760
-That's my mom.
1975
01:14:37,760 --> 01:14:54,520
-I know you took care of me for a quarter of a century, but now is not a good time.
1976
01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:57,720
-You know what, wasn't a good time giving up my dreams?
1977
01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:03,040
-So you could be a general disappointment.
1978
01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:06,040
-Back to episode number 308 of the Dad's Home Podcast.
1979
01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:07,040
I'm Bauer.
1980
01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:09,520
That is Chad the Dad.
1981
01:15:09,520 --> 01:15:13,040
All right, so we've got to get to some selections here, Chad.
1982
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:14,440
I hope you're ready to make some decisions.
1983
01:15:14,440 --> 01:15:19,160
I hope you're going decisive right now, unlike our parents in the 1980s.
1984
01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:26,000
So we've got four possibilities for us to sort of encapsulate the parent post of the
1985
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:28,160
week, if you will.
1986
01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:30,160
Are you ready to take a look at them?
1987
01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:31,160
Let's go.
1988
01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:32,160
Bring it.
1989
01:15:32,160 --> 01:15:33,160
Here we go.
1990
01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:40,200
The number one, the first one we're going to look at here comes to us from Pagan Drew
1991
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:43,480
Friend, a three-year-old daddy shoots people.
1992
01:15:43,480 --> 01:15:44,480
My husband, huh?
1993
01:15:44,480 --> 01:15:45,480
Five-year-old?
1994
01:15:45,480 --> 01:15:47,320
No, he gives them shots.
1995
01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:51,280
My husband is the family medicine doctor.
1996
01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:52,280
Daddy shoots people.
1997
01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:53,280
Daddy shoots people.
1998
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,800
There's another T-shirt right there.
1999
01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:57,560
It makes sense, right?
2000
01:15:57,560 --> 01:16:01,320
He's giving shots and they get easy to see how a three-year-old could get kind of confused
2001
01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:02,320
by that eye-short light.
2002
01:16:02,320 --> 01:16:04,120
Shot being the past tense.
2003
01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:05,920
Kids paying attention in school.
2004
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:06,920
Yeah.
2005
01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:07,920
So there's our first entry.
2006
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:09,200
Second entry comes to us from Pagan.
2007
01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:13,760
My son calls Donuts Happy Bagels and I will never refer to them as anything else now.
2008
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:17,040
I mean, they are Happy Bagels, right?
2009
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:18,040
Come on.
2010
01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:19,360
Something about that.
2011
01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:20,960
Happy stomach, Happy Bagels.
2012
01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:21,960
Yes.
2013
01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:22,960
Pagan knows.
2014
01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:25,040
How about this one from Bacon Popsicle, which I just love the name?
2015
01:16:25,040 --> 01:16:30,000
My daughter just asked for nunchucks for her birthday and I have to say, "I'm 50% proud,
2016
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:32,960
30% amused and 100% terrified."
2017
01:16:32,960 --> 01:16:35,520
I mean, there's some truth in there.
2018
01:16:35,520 --> 01:16:36,520
Those are not math.
2019
01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:42,480
Those are not math, those are not math, those are not math, those are odd numbers to use.
2020
01:16:42,480 --> 01:16:43,480
But it makes...
2021
01:16:43,480 --> 01:16:46,240
I feel like, "Yeah, I could feel that way too."
2022
01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:50,040
Especially she's excited about the nunchucks, so that's really going to get...
2023
01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:53,680
Dad, I watched a Bruce Lee movie and I need some nunchucks for my birthday.
2024
01:16:53,680 --> 01:16:54,680
Right.
2025
01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:56,680
I can bring me a ninja star.
2026
01:16:56,680 --> 01:16:58,640
That'd be awesome too.
2027
01:16:58,640 --> 01:16:59,960
It's kind of falls in line.
2028
01:16:59,960 --> 01:17:03,240
And then lastly, number four.
2029
01:17:03,240 --> 01:17:07,320
So the woman in Old Navy who just whispered, "Are you fucking kidding me to her toddler laying
2030
01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:08,440
on the floor screaming?
2031
01:17:08,440 --> 01:17:09,840
I see you.
2032
01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:10,840
I am you."
2033
01:17:10,840 --> 01:17:11,840
Oh, shit.
2034
01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:14,640
Parenting, the honesty.
2035
01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:16,640
I hate to go back to the...
2036
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:17,640
Good word.
2037
01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:22,640
Do you use in place of fucking front of your kids?
2038
01:17:22,640 --> 01:17:24,640
Oh, good question.
2039
01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:26,640
I use the word "fuck."
2040
01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:29,640
So follow me for more parenting tips.
2041
01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:30,640
Yeah.
2042
01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:36,440
Shucks, fuck off, fucking devil, make over, fucking devil, make.
2043
01:17:36,440 --> 01:17:37,440
Yes.
2044
01:17:37,440 --> 01:17:38,440
Yes.
2045
01:17:38,440 --> 01:17:40,280
This one, I feel like is...
2046
01:17:40,280 --> 01:17:44,760
Like, I get the donut happy bagel thing that works.
2047
01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:46,400
I get that, I like that.
2048
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:51,200
The nunchucks is scary, but this one I think is the most relatable because even though not
2049
01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:56,960
all of us have been in the woman's shoes whose whispering, "Are you fucking kidding me?"
2050
01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:57,960
To the toddler.
2051
01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:02,000
We've all said that at some point when it comes to our kids.
2052
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:06,160
It didn't have to be an old day, if you didn't have to be on the floor, but we've said
2053
01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:07,920
that, we've felt that before.
2054
01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:09,760
But we've all seen that too.
2055
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:10,760
We've all...
2056
01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:11,760
Yeah, thousands of people.
2057
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:12,760
...in that place.
2058
01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:14,760
And we're like, "Yeah, I see you.
2059
01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:15,760
I am you."
2060
01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:17,760
It is a parenting mantra.
2061
01:18:17,760 --> 01:18:18,760
It most certainly.
2062
01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:21,160
So do you feel like that's our winner or a fourth time?
2063
01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:23,600
Yeah, but yeah, the by-a-large margin.
2064
01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:24,600
That is...
2065
01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:26,120
I see you, I am you.
2066
01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:27,120
Yeah.
2067
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:28,120
You know what?
2068
01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:29,120
I'm going with it.
2069
01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:31,640
I did like the ninja star, I mean, the nunchucks.
2070
01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:32,640
Nunchucks was solid, but...
2071
01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:35,640
...get a pass on the nunchucks.
2072
01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:37,760
Gonna go with the I see you, I am you.
2073
01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:38,760
And again, just the...
2074
01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:42,800
I imagine, because every old Navy looks the same on the inside, right?
2075
01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:43,800
They got the concrete floor.
2076
01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:49,120
Yeah, just seeing somebody kind of bend over and whisper, "Are you fucking kidding me?"
2077
01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:50,120
You can picture it.
2078
01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:52,120
And you can picture it in your head, absolutely.
2079
01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:56,120
And I've got all the different levels of drama that come with it, like...
2080
01:18:56,120 --> 01:18:59,560
Like this, this year exhaustion, like, "Are you fucking kidding me?"
2081
01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:02,560
But then it also can be the drawn out, like...
2082
01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:04,560
I've been trying to prevent...
2083
01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:06,080
I tried to get you to eat lunch.
2084
01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:07,080
You wouldn't eat anything.
2085
01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:08,880
I knew there was going to be a low blood sugar.
2086
01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:11,720
Are you fucking kidding me?
2087
01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:16,480
Like you see every element of what that could be played out there in the old Navy.
2088
01:19:16,480 --> 01:19:17,480
And mommy needs a life.
2089
01:19:17,480 --> 01:19:19,760
Thank you very much for encapsulating that for us here.
2090
01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:21,920
Oh, the dad's own pockets.
2091
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:22,920
Chef's kiss.
2092
01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:23,920
There it is.
2093
01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:24,920
All right.
2094
01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,520
Speaking of Chef's kiss, we've got three.
2095
01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:28,520
Okay.
2096
01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,120
I had a fourth, but I want to...
2097
01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:33,080
It was more of somebody commenting on a video.
2098
01:19:33,080 --> 01:19:35,200
I'm going to try to find the original video.
2099
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:36,200
Yes.
2100
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:37,200
Okay.
2101
01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:38,200
That's what I wanted to see.
2102
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:42,160
The commenting was good, and it did have some still shots to it, but I want to find
2103
01:19:42,160 --> 01:19:43,160
the actual video.
2104
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:44,680
And that might be our last entry.
2105
01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:46,760
So I'm going to try to do that for next week's show.
2106
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:47,760
A play in.
2107
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:48,760
Sure.
2108
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:52,960
We've got three that I want to take a look at here today and find out from you who you
2109
01:19:52,960 --> 01:19:57,600
think worst parent possibility for 2025, maybe.
2110
01:19:57,600 --> 01:19:58,600
All right.
2111
01:19:58,600 --> 01:19:59,600
All right.
2112
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:00,600
Here we go.
2113
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:02,600
Let's start with Nappy Time and our first entry to today's...
2114
01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:03,600
Look.
2115
01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:06,480
It's a young couple passed out on the beach.
2116
01:20:06,480 --> 01:20:08,400
Copsay, they had too much to drink.
2117
01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:09,400
What's up, Ness?
2118
01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:10,400
Cher's office.
2119
01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:11,400
Time to wake up.
2120
01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:13,400
But they don't budge.
2121
01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:15,400
Beer cans are littered around them.
2122
01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:16,400
Oh.
2123
01:20:16,400 --> 01:20:17,400
Yep.
2124
01:20:17,400 --> 01:20:18,400
Time to wake up, guys.
2125
01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:19,400
Hey.
2126
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:21,560
Even shaking them doesn't help.
2127
01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:22,560
Cher's office.
2128
01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:23,560
Wake up.
2129
01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:27,520
Finally, the two arise from their drunken stupor.
2130
01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:31,680
But this isn't just a case of knucklehead spring breakers on Daytona Beach.
2131
01:20:31,680 --> 01:20:34,720
These are parents, and their two young kids are missing.
2132
01:20:34,720 --> 01:20:36,520
Do you guys have children with you?
2133
01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:38,960
Neither seems too concerned about the kids.
2134
01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:40,320
So cops ask again.
2135
01:20:40,320 --> 01:20:41,320
Hey.
2136
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:42,320
We're kids.
2137
01:20:42,320 --> 01:20:43,320
We're right here.
2138
01:20:43,320 --> 01:20:46,560
But the five and seven year olds are nowhere to be seen.
2139
01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:49,480
The guy heads to the water's edge to take a look.
2140
01:20:49,480 --> 01:20:53,160
It was a 911 caller who first alerted authorities.
2141
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:58,120
The lady, I guess her boyfriend gave her like four shots, and she passed out.
2142
01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:01,120
And she asked the little kids, now they're both passed out.
2143
01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:02,120
And it is about himself.
2144
01:21:02,120 --> 01:21:03,120
They're over there.
2145
01:21:03,120 --> 01:21:08,160
The city's placed the couple in handcuffs and charged them with child neglect.
2146
01:21:08,160 --> 01:21:09,520
Mom swears up a storm.
2147
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,360
And the cops here are in the police.
2148
01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:14,400
Send how we both go to the jail.
2149
01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:16,600
And the guy makes a really stupid move.
2150
01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:20,160
He takes off running with his hands, copped behind his back.
2151
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:24,960
He doesn't get very far, face planting right into the sand, and knocking himself out.
2152
01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:27,960
I thought, everyone's knocked him out.
2153
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:28,960
Really?
2154
01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:29,960
And partly gets me out.
2155
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:30,960
He's really good.
2156
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:35,880
Is that he's like, is if your dad was not bad enough that he got drunk and let you guys
2157
01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:37,600
just go away.
2158
01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:42,040
But then after mom's handcuffed and put in which they had to keep air brushing her
2159
01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:46,240
ass out, because apparently the phone is just riding there at the beach.
2160
01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:49,480
They get her loaded, but did you notice that too as the sheriff?
2161
01:21:49,480 --> 01:21:54,240
Because the sheriff's a kindhearted individual wants to make sure she's getting into the vehicle.
2162
01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:56,040
As you see here, she's getting put in the vehicle.
2163
01:21:56,040 --> 01:21:58,880
She's got her hand right on her ass.
2164
01:21:58,880 --> 01:22:01,480
And she's helping her get into the vehicle.
2165
01:22:01,480 --> 01:22:02,480
Right there.
2166
01:22:02,480 --> 01:22:04,480
It's all happening right there.
2167
01:22:04,480 --> 01:22:09,200
Yeah, so hey, look, usually they like to put it on your head so you're not banging your
2168
01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:10,720
head into the top of the truck.
2169
01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:15,280
No, this woman's got to step up into a truck and she's pushing her with the ass into the
2170
01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:16,280
vehicle.
2171
01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:17,960
I just want to put that out here.
2172
01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:23,000
So this the screenshot here too, like I think even more telling than the cops hand on
2173
01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:25,720
the ass is the dude's tattoo on his chest.
2174
01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:26,720
Yes.
2175
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:28,760
He's got a cross presumably.
2176
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:29,760
Yeah.
2177
01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:33,640
And he's got those are like baby footprints on his chest.
2178
01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:34,640
Yes.
2179
01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:36,240
So dad here is like, oh, you know what?
2180
01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:38,440
I'm a good Christian and I love my child.
2181
01:22:38,440 --> 01:22:39,440
Right.
2182
01:22:39,440 --> 01:22:41,560
I'm not the one who's in the car at the beach.
2183
01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:47,180
Drunk off our ass to pass out and we let our kids wander off and I took like all of that.
2184
01:22:47,180 --> 01:22:50,360
And then I'm wondering to myself, you know, we were talking about the eighties.
2185
01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:54,520
Perhaps for these time travelers did they come from the eighties?
2186
01:22:54,520 --> 01:22:56,560
Just I'm asking for a friend.
2187
01:22:56,560 --> 01:23:00,280
I don't know if anybody in the eighties had the barefoot print tattoo.
2188
01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:01,280
Oh, good point.
2189
01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:02,280
There.
2190
01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:03,280
Okay, so that's the anyway good day.
2191
01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:04,280
Good.
2192
01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:05,280
Good.
2193
01:23:05,280 --> 01:23:08,640
I would say even early why 2k was probably when that kind of made its popularity there.
2194
01:23:08,640 --> 01:23:09,640
Get on.
2195
01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:10,640
All right.
2196
01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:11,640
But again, you're right.
2197
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:15,000
Because then he, you know, his move is to let me show you what kind of a good Christian father
2198
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:16,480
I am by movie.
2199
01:23:16,480 --> 01:23:19,720
He takes off running with his hand, probably hiding back.
2200
01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:25,120
He doesn't get very far face planting right into the sand and not dumb ass.
2201
01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:26,120
All right.
2202
01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:27,120
So that's it.
2203
01:23:27,120 --> 01:23:28,120
Number one.
2204
01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:29,120
Next.
2205
01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:31,120
Next is it is going to get better than this?
2206
01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:35,480
Let's swipe right and see what happens in street number two.
2207
01:23:35,480 --> 01:23:39,720
Here you see a family out in the yard looking up at their roof while you see a phone calling
2208
01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:45,400
it's way down the roof.
2209
01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:46,400
Look at that.
2210
01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:51,720
That's not that's not even like a five year old like that.
2211
01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:56,880
That's maybe a year old child at two tops tops.
2212
01:23:56,880 --> 01:24:00,160
Able to walk in a diaper down the side of the roof.
2213
01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:04,800
No parent, by the way, notice is no they're all waiting for the toddler to come to them.
2214
01:24:04,800 --> 01:24:10,120
No one's running up to go to the roof to get the child and to get the roof.
2215
01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:12,840
The eve of the roof is hanging over the parent's head.
2216
01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:16,840
It's not, it's not, you know, low like it's at their chest or something like it just grabbed
2217
01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:17,840
them up.
2218
01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:21,260
They have to go get a ladder to be able to get this toddler off the road chair to get the
2219
01:24:21,260 --> 01:24:25,240
toddler off the roof of the tall guy going there like come to daddy, come to daddy.
2220
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:26,240
Let me grab you.
2221
01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:28,480
How did you get on the roof in the first place?
2222
01:24:28,480 --> 01:24:30,360
How did the toddler end up on the roof?
2223
01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:31,360
There is.
2224
01:24:31,360 --> 01:24:36,440
Oh, the saved them.
2225
01:24:36,440 --> 01:24:37,440
Yeah.
2226
01:24:37,440 --> 01:24:38,440
Well, and it's interesting.
2227
01:24:38,440 --> 01:24:44,080
So, and no judgment here, but clearly this is a different culture based on the language.
2228
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:45,080
Right.
2229
01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:49,280
Maybe, maybe babies on the roof in that particular culture is good luck.
2230
01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:50,680
Oh, you know what you're saying?
2231
01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:51,680
I see what you're saying.
2232
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:52,680
You know, right?
2233
01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:55,840
Hey, look everybody, there is a toddler on the roof.
2234
01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:57,680
We're going to have five years of good luck.
2235
01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:02,720
Singing life to your family in that home is the toddler walking down, scaling down the
2236
01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:04,200
side of a roof.
2237
01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:05,880
Or maybe it's a tradition, right?
2238
01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:10,200
When the child becomes 18 months old, you throw them up on the roof and see if they can walk
2239
01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:11,200
down.
2240
01:25:11,200 --> 01:25:12,200
If they can't.
2241
01:25:12,200 --> 01:25:17,200
And if they live, yes, if they stay up there, they're going to leave a normal, healthy life.
2242
01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:20,000
If they die, they fall off and die and break their neck.
2243
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:21,160
Well, that was just meant to be.
2244
01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:23,240
They weren't, yeah, survival of the fittest.
2245
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:24,240
Okay.
2246
01:25:24,240 --> 01:25:25,240
Let's get to this.
2247
01:25:25,240 --> 01:25:26,240
We have survival of the fittest.
2248
01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:27,240
Let's get to number three here.
2249
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:33,200
Again, as parents, we've all had wagons, even I had one of the radio flyer wagons growing
2250
01:25:33,200 --> 01:25:34,200
up when I was a kid.
2251
01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:35,200
Am I brother and I?
2252
01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,480
We have one that we haul shit to the top of the hills.
2253
01:25:37,480 --> 01:25:38,480
Yes.
2254
01:25:38,480 --> 01:25:44,000
We used to push each other around in that wagon just going down our driveway, not very hard
2255
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:45,000
all.
2256
01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:47,040
That's not an end Olympics.
2257
01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:53,840
Kind of the same as this down a giant hill where the kids are in the wagon, dads, videoing.
2258
01:25:53,840 --> 01:25:55,000
Watch out for that tree.
2259
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:56,000
What tree?
2260
01:25:56,000 --> 01:25:58,000
This one right here.
2261
01:25:58,000 --> 01:25:59,000
Boom.
2262
01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:03,000
Oh, my God.
2263
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:04,000
I will.
2264
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:05,000
I will.
2265
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:06,000
I will.
2266
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:07,000
I will highlight this now.
2267
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:08,000
I've just listened.
2268
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:10,640
Try not to laugh over when you hear the crash.
2269
01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:12,120
Listen to the dad's laugh.
2270
01:26:12,120 --> 01:26:17,080
And again, I'll just point this out for everybody who's ever heard us talk about this.
2271
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:21,480
There is not a moment dad is running over to help these kids even after they smash them.
2272
01:26:21,480 --> 01:26:25,600
They're coming down a gigantic hill in a park in a runaway.
2273
01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:32,640
collapsible wagon not even a good old fashioned radio flyer made a steal this is a collapsible that is
2274
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:37,680
and that legit that's the same one that we haul shit to the softball fields win listen
2275
01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:45,040
dad laughs at the end there
2276
01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:58,880
I mean okay so okay did the kids die this is my first question did the kids die okay so I don't
2277
01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:05,520
believe so I think I'd be a different video we'd be watching right now this one is is truly
2278
01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:11,760
comedy gold though like okay there's a lot of dumb assery happening in this video for sure yeah
2279
01:27:12,560 --> 01:27:18,560
however like a couple good things happen one they all ask down this thing there is a road that they
2280
01:27:18,560 --> 01:27:25,600
go over that slows their cart down so they're not going at like you know maximum velocity when
2281
01:27:25,600 --> 01:27:34,640
they hit the right here right here yeah it's like it's like the road the gravel road is up above
2282
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:40,800
it's a little lifted so they have to hit this bump like the dukes of hazard first and then like
2283
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:45,920
they're jumping over a creek in hazard county they start to go over this thing and then that's
2284
01:27:45,920 --> 01:27:51,120
when they land on the other side and boom hit the tree yeah and then the thing just goes up ends
2285
01:27:51,120 --> 01:28:00,160
and then dad laughs I mean dad look I mean call me evil but dad's not wrong laughing at that that's
2286
01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:06,160
funny shit I've been looking this looking I will just say this look at his kids yeah there's no
2287
01:28:06,160 --> 01:28:14,320
one the fun is little yeah they're four five I don't know maybe maybe I could I could be convinced the
2288
01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:19,680
one in the middle might be one of the back might be four this could be like a three and four
2289
01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:23,680
year old the other thing I love about this too and I'm not sure if that they're holding in the
2290
01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:29,040
the bar that you haul the car around with yeah the hand yeah I'm not sure if they're thinking
2291
01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:33,600
that that's something they can actually steer with or they know they right or they know if they
2292
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:39,200
let go it's gonna then catapult the cart right because it'll fall down the cart will stop suddenly and
2293
01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:46,080
out they go yeah I don't that's now look in the good old days when I had my radio flyer the steel
2294
01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:51,920
radio flyer that actually had like rubber tires on it it did and you turn you could turn with that
2295
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:55,520
handle you could use it to go left or right or whatever you want it if you made a real quick turn
2296
01:28:55,520 --> 01:29:00,240
you could flip right over right sure you would have missed the tree is what this would right you would
2297
01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:04,560
steer well again I didn't really I'm thinking it three years old I wasn't really the best driver
2298
01:29:04,560 --> 01:29:11,360
coming down the hill at what appears to be called twenty miles an hour on a very heightened grass hill
2299
01:29:11,360 --> 01:29:15,280
with a lot of bumps and then we're going straight into a tree so I don't know that I would have been
2300
01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:19,840
able to avoid said tree I'd like to think I could but I'm not that skilled a driver but in this
2301
01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:23,680
particular case it didn't matter that they were holding a handle because that hell is not doing
2302
01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:27,680
anything the wheels are all wobbly to begin with that things going it's got a mind of its own
2303
01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:34,080
frankly it does and again when the kids do grab the hit road like a duke the hazard and then
2304
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:41,680
crash into the tree that is not running over to see if they're okay that is in for a second like
2305
01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:49,200
did junior in the front separated break his arm break his arm do we know did he get a cut illustration
2306
01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:55,280
over his eye we have no idea I mean he did go pretty he went ass over Sunday in the when the
2307
01:29:55,280 --> 01:30:00,960
thick when the wagon hit the tree the back end went up because of course he he he front weighed it like
2308
01:30:00,960 --> 01:30:09,920
the heavier kid was right towards the point nobody was so I got to say though of these three I do have
2309
01:30:09,920 --> 01:30:16,560
a definite like you suck the most parent are you do you feel like you have a clear cut indication of
2310
01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:21,200
which the which one of these would be the worst parent of twenty twenty five of these three
2311
01:30:21,840 --> 01:30:27,680
for me it would be the eighties time traveler in the first video like the that guy that is
2312
01:30:27,680 --> 01:30:35,760
that is that is girl yeah that guy call it is the drunk because here's the thing by the
2313
01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:40,240
transition story we still don't know where the kids are we have no idea that's okay
2314
01:30:40,240 --> 01:30:45,520
well we presumably they are we don't know they still could be missing that's good they could be
2315
01:30:45,520 --> 01:30:51,040
on a milk carton right now for all we know they could be a part of Epstein's Island I don't know
2316
01:30:51,040 --> 01:30:57,440
but here's the thing the part that gets me is that he like after she yells at him like we're all we're
2317
01:30:57,440 --> 01:31:07,280
going to get arrested now his thought process is I'm too drunk to get I can't let my kids not have
2318
01:31:07,280 --> 01:31:12,240
both of their parents I've got to make a break for it he's placed the couple in handcuffs and
2319
01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:20,960
charge them with child neglect mom swears up a storm but she's blaming
2320
01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:26,480
it on him like she had nothing to do with it right yeah get zero to do with it and then she gets lifted
2321
01:31:26,480 --> 01:31:32,480
by the guy makes a really stupid move are he takes off running with his hands cuff behind his back
2322
01:31:32,480 --> 01:31:37,280
he doesn't get very far face planting right into the sand and knocking himself out
2323
01:31:37,280 --> 01:31:45,040
I and and that's just a poor decision making on both of their parts the fact that they're both now
2324
01:31:45,040 --> 01:31:49,840
basically probably putting their kids into literally child protective services right they're
2325
01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:54,400
probably gonna go in there for a while because both of them are now going to have all this
2326
01:31:54,400 --> 01:31:59,280
should to deal with that that's a mess that's those are some crazy parts I would say that it would
2327
01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:04,480
be a great commercial for birth control right there second of all show this in high schools show
2328
01:32:04,480 --> 01:32:08,800
that everyone you need to see that's all the guy with the tattoo and the woman with the bikini
2329
01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:12,960
and how she's yelling at him and curse like all of that is just like that's that's a great
2330
01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:18,800
birth control thing right there secondly even the sheriff ran after this due to see if he was okay
2331
01:32:18,800 --> 01:32:23,200
like once you did a face plot he still went over to see was okay the fucking kids who ran head down
2332
01:32:23,200 --> 01:32:30,160
into a tree after going down a hill at five miles an hour dad just laughed at them so I
2333
01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:35,920
I I hear what you're saying and I tend to agree with you that these are I mean they still again
2334
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:41,360
those kids look if we have a split vote here if we have a split vote we can we can enter them both in
2335
01:32:41,360 --> 01:32:45,440
and let them fight it out I do I do feel like these are the bigger assholes I do feel like these
2336
01:32:45,440 --> 01:32:50,400
parents are the ones that are jeopardized and I and I mean that on a on a historic like since the kids
2337
01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:56,240
were born till probably they get to therapy later on this is going to be a more severe parenting
2338
01:32:56,240 --> 01:33:02,320
for the kids that they're gonna have to deal with then then the other guy the other guy they're just
2339
01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:07,280
gonna be like remember that time dad ran us into the tree yeah and and even the kid on the roof
2340
01:33:07,280 --> 01:33:11,840
I mean that kid's probably not gonna remember that they were walking the roof so no damage no harm
2341
01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:17,520
about there's video that will last forever on the internet but yeah but but in this case dad ran
2342
01:33:17,520 --> 01:33:23,600
away a drunk idiot and and and knocked himself out trying to get away from authorities while he was
2343
01:33:23,600 --> 01:33:31,040
drunk so I'm gonna say all of that living on inside addition is is what locks the vote up for you
2344
01:33:31,040 --> 01:33:37,360
when it comes to the chicken dinner entry for the 2025 worst parent of the year award by far
2345
01:33:37,360 --> 01:33:42,480
congratulations yeah good job buddy I'm gonna call this guy I mean it's just my name I go to name
2346
01:33:42,480 --> 01:33:48,720
I'm a column hunter it looks like a hunter doesn't he he does is that I maybe that is that like a
2347
01:33:48,720 --> 01:33:53,520
tanya I don't know how to hunt right there's no more there's the Chinese are made anymore right
2348
01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:58,080
right right right right so I'm gonna say that's that's hunter in the hunter yeah that's the couple that
2349
01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:03,040
passed out on the beach with clearly after getting the wonderful tattoos at some point in time
2350
01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:08,800
they weren't matching necessarily but they the passing out of the beach part they even did you
2351
01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:12,160
notice the sheriff had a check the pulse to make sure they were still breathing he was still
2352
01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:18,080
doing that's why they tried to make him up I love it did he come himself yeah right well and so there
2353
01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:23,440
you go we have our answer we now know who the at least in this particular week who the worst parent
2354
01:34:23,440 --> 01:34:29,200
is going to be going into and facing off against some pretty stiff competition for our worst
2355
01:34:29,200 --> 01:34:34,560
parent of 2025 I think we'll have one more coming up this next week so it's gonna it's gonna be very
2356
01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:39,280
important for us to recognize who's gonna be able to fight in that play in kind of a situation be
2357
01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:44,000
a very important vote for us Chad coming into this next it will absolutely and if you've got any
2358
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:48,000
suggestions for bad parents that you think we should see that we should that should be included
2359

2362

2363
01:35:08,720 --> 01:35:14,320
selection process today and I think you know these are gonna get harder to vote pretty soon Chad we're
2364
01:35:14,320 --> 01:35:19,200
gonna have a really drastic voting that needs to be done so it was good to see where we ended up on
2365
01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:23,280
kind of opposite sides of this and then came to a conclusion can't see that happening in DC
2366
01:35:23,280 --> 01:35:28,320
these days but everywhere else here are the dad's own podcast for myself and for mr. Chad until
2367
01:35:28,320 --> 01:35:39,040

2368
01:35:39,040 --> 01:35:44,720
running with his hands cuff behind his back he doesn't get very far face planting right into the
2369
01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:48,160
sand and knocking himself out all ambulance please
