This show isn’t about expert advice and how fatherhood is the greatest thing on earth—it’s about embracing the love and suck of parenthood every day.

Cause at the end of the day... us dads have no idea what we're doing.   Alongside Will is his producer Sherman Young, a soon-to-be dad who’s currently enjoying his last few months of uninterrupted sleep and freedom. Together, they’ll break down everything that can go right and wrong (...usually wrong) when you bring tiny humans into this world.   Expect funny parenting stories, laughs, call-ins, advice, weekly themes, and the kind of conversations you’d have over a cold beer in the garage. Whether you’re raising teens or still Googling “how to install a car seat”, For the Dads is the ultimate podcast for dads who are in it, about to be in it, or just trying to do their best while screwing it up along the way.   -----   FOLLOW THE BOYS Instagram:   / Forthedadspod  Twitter:   / Forthedadspod Facebook:   / Forthedadspod TikTok: / Forthedadspod LISTEN iTunes: http://bit.ly/BWTB_Apple Spotify: http://bit.ly/BWTB_Spotify -----   SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Wayfair - Get organized, refreshed, and back to routine for way less.

At 10 a.m. is the drop of you've been asking for it the black for the dad hats we also have the black teddy bear hats if we want to kick it over to the producer cam how we doing looking good i love this hat for all the uh fellows out there that aren't dads yet and you feel like it's a little bit of stolen valor this hat right here with the teddy bear let me see if i can get it without it focusing in is an absolute sick hat

I wore it out both nights this weekend, got a lot of compliments. You did. It's a real runaway hit. It is. He looked good at Jill's party. He wore that hat to Jill's party and looked sick. I'm excited to learn her here about this party a little bit. But you get all this new merch.

I believe three shirts. I believe this hat. I believe the Sherman hat and a visor of the bear. Some hoodie, I believe. A hat, I believe. I mean, G. showed me an image of it. It's an overwhelmingly positive amount

of gear coming. Let's go. Popat Team 6 is going to show out too. Don't forget our first iteration of the Popat Team 6 shirts. Do not forget about that. They're still in the stores. But if you really want to, if you're part of this crew, if you're part of this army,

you go get some merch at bwtb.com. Where shall we start? Do we need to talk about, do I need to address anything about that anymore? To me, this is what fatherhood looks like. You ain't a true dad unless you get a shaved dad. Hey, here's a deal. You look tough. I think if there's one thing that could be said where it's not like, oh,

Sherman's just being nice to will of like, oh, you look good with. it shaped will, which I do think you look good. You look tough. It's the A gap cut right here. You look like you're in the league again. Like I kind of, I'm seeing it again. I had an athletic director shoot me a message saying that's who told me I look 21. I was trying to figure out.

Somebody texted me and told me I look 21. At AD. Not going to say which school it was. I'm sure you guys can figure it out. You look 21. You got some more eligibility. You do. Do you mind for the viewers throwing on the teddy bear hat kind of high up on the head?

You look like a first round draft pick when you wear the... Just like a... You look like the guy that I probably shouldn't draft, but I'm not going to regret it when I do. Get the grill going. Got the chains on. The first thing I did, I got up. I got out of bed. When I knew I lost the bed, I'm like, yeah.

I got to embrace this shit. Yeah. And I'm kind of excited to get my head shaved and my face shaved. I looked at my closet. Yeah. And it was no, without question, the black true classic shirt had to. And then it was like, it was time to bring these chains back out of retirement. They've been sitting.

They've been sitting in my bathroom for quite some time. Yeah. I got the same Christopher necklace with a cerulean bell etched behind it for safety as I traveled. Ooh. My wife, she had Charles been asking me, like, when you're going to put the necklace back on? I'm like, I just feel like I'm not as much of a necklace guy anymore. But now, now with this bald head, the black tea, and the chains are back. It's fitting that we're talking about family while he looks like Ben Diesel.

He does. Great call chef. I live my life one quarter mile at a time. Great quote. Hashtack family. Doesn't matter if you went by an inch or a mile. Winning's winning. Will, I almost had you.

Have me? You didn't have me. You didn't even have your own car. Oh! Come on. Go check out Pass of the Furious. Go check out Fast of the Furious. Shut on, no free shoutouts.

There was one last thing I was going to say. You wanted to talk briefly about solidarity. Solidarity. You wanted to talk about how, speaking of family, that we are a family on this show. Yeah. Was there anything that you wanted to bring up with that? With solidarity, head-shaped, or how are you feeling?

There is a co-host with me on this show that put in a bet of Nebraska minus 12 and a half, 13 and a half over the weekend. 13 and a half, but 100. I did have some guys riding with me on the game over the weekend, the bus and bowl. A couple gentlemen sitting behind the cameras right now,

Derek and Chef. To where there's a part of me, it's like, am I the only one that's going to take the bullets here on shaving my head? Or should my for the dad's family, should my PT Sixers, should the captain, the seaman team six, the funkel club. What's you laughing about? You too? You too, Bucco? I'm laughing because I'm laughing because I'm excited. I truly am.

A part of me is wondering if you guys should be doing this in solidarity with your boy. If we're going to be a family, if we're going to be like this, then I think it's only right that you guys do it with me. Comments, let me know what you think. I have to be completely honest. This is my take on it. Overwhelmingly excited if the whole PT6 crew is down to shave heads. I mean, chef, chef's, there. He was like that when he first showed up as an intern.

He had that thing buzzed down. Yeah? Yeah. Been buzzed for, well, actually, that was the first time. Can I'm willing to do it. I don't care. Can I go half guard up top here and then a fade on the side? Yeah, do we have to go full razor's

Because it would really help with the girlfriend Convincing her Because I told her I was going to grow it out Until the summer Yeah, I don't see why not Awesome I don't see why not It would obviously mean the world to me

If you did what I did But if you guys are standing In some type of solidarity with me I would love that What about you, Derek? You're kind of new here You know, you got a nice little head up top I had already told Sherm

That after October 13th I'll do whatever you want to my head That is our engagement photo day where we are sending out wedding invites. I think that's, I think that's safe. That's safe. Here's what I'll say, October 14th, we are going to the Jonas Brothers. I will gladly walk into the Jonas Brothers with that haircut as long as I'm not losing my wonderful fiancé. I have no issue.

Bro, so when I lost this bet, because Charles was talking to me last week and she was like, are you actually going to cut your hair? And I was like, I mean, sweetheart, if we lose, I have to. but I'm telling you right now, we're not going to lose this football game. Taylor's going to be the one buzzing his head. We're not losing. This hair is staying.

I know you love the hair. Guess what the hair is staying? Because she's like, we got family photos in early October. Oh, no. And I'm a sweetheart, don't even worry about it. We ain't losing.

We lost. She wanted me to back out of the bet. She wanted me to, like, not do it. I'm like, sweetheart, I can't. I got to be a man of my word here. I got to pay my debts. She really was like, we got the family photos.

The family photos. I'm like, you know, it's one set of family photos. photos. Family photos, by the way, which, you know, I didn't like set them up, but I put it out. I was like, hey, we should get some family photos. You did. Remember that? On this show. On this show. Send that text. And we got some family photos dialed in, which I'm excited about. But it's like, this is one group of family. This is one, this is one sitting of family photos. And it's able to look back at this family photo. Like, Daddy, why is your head shaved here?

Daddy lost a bet. And your daddy's kind of a fun guy, isn't he? Man of his word. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. but yeah oh hello Taylor oh perfect timing too you're perfect time but we're

I believe that I believe that was the 1997 champions or the Michigan Wolverines yeah that was also part of the you are on camera

right here and Taylor oh you have a producer camera make it down I tell people to see my hair Taylor for the first time ever round of applause

Taylor Lwai okay oh wow Yeah, I just came in here to take an afternoon too and realized that you guys were shooting. Big fan of the show. Big fan of both of you guys. I think you guys are bringing a unique perspective

onto the dads everywhere. A lot of people want to be like, this is what I do as a father because I'm the best dad ever. No one's the best dad ever. Kind of just flip a coin and hope it works out for your kid. Luckily, everyone in here for the most part. It works out. Worked out.

And I love that you guys use this as a therapy session because we all need it. So I'll tune in. Thank you. Yeah. Thank you. So you have seen the multiple breakdowns on the multiple episodes, tears pretty much every episode. Pop a Team 6.

Yeah. Yeah. I don't think there's anything wrong with tears. I think you need to normalize dudes weeping on camera. Normalize it. Oh, we are doing it. We are doing it. Have you guys done it today?

Not yet. Go ahead. Start it up then. You did get to these comments here in a minute, so who knows? You came in perfect timing because we were talking about maybe the whole. whole crew goes in solidarity with Will on the head shape. Did you take Michigan or Nebraska? I took Nebraska.

He took Nebraska minus 13 and a half. Nebraska. Yeah, you should. Honestly, if the guys that work at Bustin with the boys are who they claim to be, everyone who is with Nebraska should do this in solidarity. I don't disagree. I think that's not. I think I'm just cleaned everywhere.

I think y'all. That's a great. I think you'll just turn to do a bunch of skidheads and me and coop is what it would be. Coupe and Ferta. Wasn't Ferda? Yeah, shave his head too, though. Okay. Actually, now that I think about Ferda,

did go with Nebraska. I think he said it to my face and then probably went up to the window, but I got it. Someone's got to have Taylor's back. Hey, don't worry. Don't worry. No, because he was like,

he was going to go Michigan, but then he was like, we're on the same, like we GM, the fantasy team together. So he got to go. He's like, I got to go with my boy.

Like, I got to go with my GM. So, yeah, it would be everybody except you and Coop. Yeah. honestly and we we be the trinsettors well trinsetter but we join in right have a full cool statement out for the dads cool kids club all three Ks you can do that bad ideas in a brain so bad ideas right no bad ideas yeah man we kick that around the wrong show right now you're no guys can't joke around well we joke we joke guys can't joke around we joke okay I'll tell you

this it's much more fun being a guest on a show go. It really is. Whatever I want. Yeah, you can. Got to say whatever I want. That was it though. That's all right to say.

All right, guys. I'm going to go finish business. Do your thing, man. Get that afternoon too in. Once again, love the show. And I actually, I mean it. I mean it. Thank you.

And before I go, would you say the 1997 national champions were? The Michigan Wolverines. My boy. Round of applause. Say, Lawn. Air Luan. See, yeah, we can get the, we can get the clippers out. I guess, Derek, we can wait until your engagement photos are done.

That's fair. Chef. Yeah, I'll do it. Yeah, I'll do it. I'll do too. I mean, I just buzzed my head a month ago. So I don't, it's not like I got a big old. Oh, yeah, you look good.

You look good with the buzzed head. Thank you. I mean, I'm in need of a haircut. I think that going in solidarity-wise with you. it would feel good. I think if the whole crew had it, we kind of looked up. We looked tough.

Just saying, Popa Team 6. Come on. Should we dive into some engagement? Shout out some fans. Yes. Dude, I had a really cool conversation.

And I am so sorry that I'm not, I'm forgetting his name. This couple, I was talking to when we were doing that CBS show on Saturday morning over down the Haymarket area. Oh, yeah, yeah. Pull me aside over by the fence. and he's just he's honestly just talking to me about for the dads and how much he loves it

and his wife was sitting there and be like yeah we tune in every week and he's just he doesn't even want to talk husker football he just wants to talk about how much he loved for the dads and papa team six and he was getting to a point i said buddy look it's going to be like we're reading these comments or reading these stories like you're starting to get water in my eyes by how much you could tell he was wanting just to let me know how much he loved the show and uh how much it's like influenced him in and stuff like that but it was uh yeah because he was talking about how he had lost his job and within a couple weeks he like he like got a job and then they were due like two weeks later or something like that so he only had like two weeks of paternity leave and how hard it was like

on them and everything else because dad you know dad's like going and doing this job and kind of sacrificing the you know just the stuff that they had to go through like while he was doing the whole work thing just to like, you know, have a career and like have a job for himself and provide and everything like that. Like, hey, he gets a job and then two weeks later, he's like, hey, you know, do I get some paternity leave to where he's not at the job? He felt like he had to go to said job. That's so hard. He's given me a full breakdown, but it was, it was awesome. We had a few other conversations. PT6 is out there. And just want to say thank you to everybody who engages with us. I feel like the comments I get about for the dads and Papa Team 6, they warm the heart the most.

They do. But if you want to be featured on the show, we have, we do comments. So if you leave comments on YouTube, ideally within the first 48 hours of dropping, that's when the guys kind of go through the comments and go through everything for the potential next week's show. Because we never know when we're going to film the next week's episode with everything else going on in our world. It could be Friday we film. It could be over the weekend. It could be Monday we film it.

But to be featured on the show, you can leave comments, whether on social media or on YouTube. We see a lot of YouTube comments that we kind of dive into. And then also 601, the dash. are hotline. You can call and drop a voicemail and we will play it and you'll be featured on the show. But this first one comes to us from Andrew Fox on on YouTube. Papa Fox, Pt6 from Sussex, County Delaware checking in, happy father of two beautiful children, two and a half year old daughter and month old baby boy. Love the pod. Look forward to it every week. Shouting out the whole pot. I'm a teacher in a high school lacrosse coach of 10 years.

Do you want, do we want merch? You can. shoot a submerged. We would love that. Kids are my life, my students, and my players are my kids, basically. So obviously being a dad is the best thing in the whole world. I love my children and I love the girl dead culture, but I've been taking some hard times with my daughter as we're transitioning to having another child in house, the tantrums, the fight back, the regressions have really put me in a feeling of being a bad dad while also keeping my emotions in check and showing love to my newborn son. The question is, Will, how did you, how did you, how did you doing that? How did you doing that?

How did you do that when you had Godzilla? How was Rue? I think that's how you spelled it, my math teacher brain. What were some of the things that seemed to work or didn't work? Finally, while I've been going through this, the pot has helped reminding me that this two will pass and that everything will be better. Thank you. Andrew, appreciate the question, my friend.

I would say, what worked for us? And I've kind of given a couple of these dad hacks in the past episodes. But one thing that we did coming out of the hospital is introducing, seeing Rue to Scotty while Scotty wasn't in mom's arms because, you know, I was seeing, honestly, I was just seeing this stuff on Instagram that when your kid is like walking in the check on mom and they see the newborn in mom's hands, it's like you, the first one, you are, you are their world, they are your world and they see you holding a different world than you're introducing them. So one thing we did do was have somebody else holding Scotty

when Roo came in to check on mom and see mom and everything else. Obviously, that's already, that's past for you, but a couple good pieces of it, your dad hacks, tips, whatever you want to call them, is we would get Rue, we got Rue a gift from Scotty. And it was like Roo at the time, loved Frozen, still loves Frozen, but loved Frozen, love Ona and Elsa. So we gifted her like this, like Elsa necklace or this like little jewelry set or whatever from Scotty to Rue. when we brought Scotty home. Like, Scotty has you a gift waiting at home. Another dad hack, I would tell you, is something that we tried intentionally and consciously doing

because it's very hard when you've got two kiddos and your older one, your first one, they want a player, they want to do stuff. Dad, do this or put me down first. Or, Dad, I want you to hold me. I don't want you to hold Scotty. Is instead of telling Rue, Roo, I'm holding Scotty right now.

I can't do it. Roo, I can't do this because I'm doing X, Y, and Z with Scotty. I still do that from time of time, but I got to catch myself saying it. And I just, instead, I'll tell Rue, okay, Dad, I can do that. And then I will look at Scotty and say, Scotty, whenever I'm done holding you,

I got to pick up your sister Rue. Because the little one, they have no clue what's going on. Yeah. But almost, you know, if you're older one, your first one is telling you something and say you can do, but you just can't at the moment. Or you will later, but you can't at the moment. Instead of like telling them, I can't do X, Y, and Z because my responsibilities with your younger sister right now,

you need to understand that my hands are full and dead ass trying, but I got to tend to your younger sister right now. It would be more so I tell her yes, I nod my head, we'll be able to do this. Hang on, let me just tell Scotty something really quick. So then I'll tell Scotty, whatever I got to do with her and say, but when I'm done, I have to play with your sister. So that way, Rue is hearing me say that. Then it allows me to then look at Rue.

Say, you hear what I told Scotty? I just said, you know, let me change your diaper. Let me get you into your outfit. But the moment I'm done, I'm going to play with Rue. And then I'll look at Rue, I'll be I just give that of these couple minutes. I'll knock it out quick and then we'll start playing. So those are like a couple little hacks and a couple little tips. That's the only experience I have.

Rue does get jealous and stuff at times with Scotty. But Rue's honestly, she's been a pretty good big sister for the most part. And I do feel a lot of it has to do with like making them feel included in the conversation of whatever you're doing responsibility-wise with the younger one. It's just more so look at them, say everything you're going to do to them while the older one hears you. that way they feel part of this solution, the problem solving that's taking place. So that's what I'd say. Those have been two of my favorite dad hacks that you've actually shared on this show.

And it was Stephen Shea that gave you the gift. Stephen Shea, yeah. Shout out Stephen Chey. He gave me the gift idea whenever you were bringing the newborn home, tell the older one. It's genius. Yeah, hey, Scotty got you a gift when we get home. She's so excited to be your sister. Yeah, she's so excited to be your sister.

and just kind of sets it up for success. But it's like, it's just like little things like that because it does happen. It does get hard. You're juggling a lot of things when you have multiple kids. And you get caught up, you know, being a little too impatient or maybe you're a little run down from the day and, you know, wearing all the different hats, being a husband, being, you know, employee, being dad, being dad to one, being dad to two. And you kind of like, you know, you get a little frazzled.

But that's like a, it's like a, it's like one thing I will. allude to in my brain is okay if i check the way i'm talking or rue doesn't feel important right now i try to think of what i've just been doing about i got to switch it around i need to talk to scotty say hey scotty whenever i get done putting you in your crib or give you your bottle i have to go play with i have to go play with rue it's ruse time and you know you're sitting there talking a little one there they have no clue it's been said but ruse fired up because you know you're talking about her and letting them know at the same time how important they are in front of a little sister I love that.

Next one that I have is off of TikTok, which we haven't done a ton of comments off TikTok. I saw Derek pulled a bunch of TikTok comments, which gets me stoked. This is from 26-2 underscore. He says, fellas, dad to a rambunctious 11-month-old boy who is hates sitting still. Even when getting his diaper changed, full of shit,

Good. Also, long-time PT-Sixer. My son has recently been deployed to every nook and cranny in our house since he is crawling now. Anyways, have the best dad moment the other day as I walked in the door. He crawled to me with the biggest smile. Also, he caught him bobbing his head to Rocky Top, which made me a static, GBO. Come on, shit. Thurably, enjoy all the pods, fellas. Great advice for future dads, new dads, or old dads. Love that. Which I also have a similar story.

A GBO. GBO. I have a similar story with Scarlet. That's one of my crack of coal ones. Okay. Not crawling, but smiling. All right. Thank you for the comment on TikTok.

Yes, thank you. I love that. TikTok comments. Let's go. 262. Follow us on TikTok. Brandon. Brandon 0950.

Ripped a fart in my son. room after asking, did you hear that frog? He laughed. My three-year-old thinks farts are funny. Good. Love the pod fellas. Keep killing it. Then some more Pt6, some engagement here. Nick Beckwith responds to him. My dad used to call him California barking spiders. Legend. Love seeing the community. Just the community talking back and forth with each other. Just all dads trying to help each other out. My dad was a big barking spider guy. He loved that joke. And I never fully got the joke because I was like, I don't know if spiders bark. Like, what's my dad talking about?

Chef shake his head to you. Like, I don't know. This one comes from Brett DeRoe underscore. Also on TikTok. How's it going, guys? My name is Sergeant Brett DeRoe, and I am currently deployed to the Middle East. Thank you for your service, Brett. However, my wife is back home and is due in October with our first baby, a baby girl.

I'm super excited and nervous. about this. So I was just wondering what tips you have for a girl dad who hasn't been there through all the appointments due to military service. Also, I plan on surprising her by coming back before our baby is born. What should I do for my wife to help make up for the lost time? You guys are a huge inspiration to me about to become a girl dad and I can't wait to make my own memories with my daughter. Any tips you could give me would help out a lot. Thank you guys for being awesome motherfuckers and awesome girl dads hopefully me being uh from iowa doesn't rub you the wrong way will winky face anyways love you boys god bless that comes from brett dero brett darrow thank you

bro thank you for tapping in thank you for leaving a comment um shirm what do you got bro uh advice i know you got a couple things advice wise as far as like making up that time i feel like it's so different in Brett's case because he's literally serving our country but I know what he means about like the guilt from absence yeah and although I did not experience that with my wife um I felt like the communication even if I wasn't able to make a baby appointment the communication before the appointment and after the appointment meant the world to her of even the most minute's that her head has grown 8 millimeters, Sherman. Oh my gosh, that's

incredible because we were worried about the size of her head, Jill, you know, but like being plugged into those conversations, but I think the best gift that he's going to give them is like him coming home and surprising them. Like those, you want to talk about crying on camera. Yeah.

Yeah. I'll pull those up on YouTube, just a soldier coming home, a mom or a dad, and oh, dude, I'm dead meat every time. Yeah, I'm with you. It always comes back to the communication and just the presence. And then if you can't have the presence, just them knowing that you care to ask about what's going on. Because you got to think, too, as a mom going into these appointments and let's just say it's alone, like there are things that they're nervous about. There's things that they're learning. And whenever they come out of it and talk to you, they want to know that you're there and you see them and that you are in it with them, even though. you might not actually be with them. So whether it's fears or insecurities or learning something new,

it's that same excitement to where you're curious about it. And what you got in that water? I was worried about the bottom of my water, but I think it is just some liquid IV. Yeah. Nice, nice blood. Thank you. Thank you.

But yeah, just knowing that you're in it with them. As much as you can possibly be because she gets it. And I'm sure she asks you, how's everything going? there whether you can share with her or not, but it's just flipping the table and asking her, hey, how's your day? How are you feeling going into it? Are you feeling excited? They want to know that you're excited. All of those different things. That's what it, that's what it always comes down to. Because for me, if my wife checks me, a lot of the times it's like, I just want to know that you're excited or that you're feeling some of the same things I'm feeling versus like staying,

you know, reserved or unemotional. You know what I'm saying? I know exactly what you mean. the other question that he had asked was like what advice do you have as a couple girl dads for me i think the only thing that i would say uh instead of some advice is just like to get brett excited is i feel like dads the opportunity is so great with being a girl dad like the opportunity to be a good father to your daughter but in that cheat code of like the relationship of a daughter and her dad is like, I'm starting to see it with Scarlet of just like the way that she looks at me and the way she interacts with me and stuff. And like, it's just so much fun. It really is. And like, Brett, you're in for an absolute treat. I know I'm only barely 11 weeks into, you know,

this whole process. But it's like, it's such a cool thing. It's such a beautiful thing. I don't know how to describe it. Even you're a barber. what was his name? Alan. Matt Allen today. So nice. Can you turn that on? Can people hear the lawn mowing going on outside? I will get that out of the. Okay, okay. Because that just got super loud. Yeah. Alan's a stud, bro. Allen's a stud. And congratulations to Alan. They have a baby girl on the way in October. And it was fun just him saying like, hey, I have a baby boy. But we actually have a baby on the way. It's a girl. And like just the look that he kind of gave me and like dab me up, it's like, I don't know. There's just something cool about being a girl dad. Yeah. Awesome responsibility. Like the new love that you have, like you are your daughter's first love. Go back to episode one and listen to the end of the episode because I kind of do a little written thing on being a girl dad and what it means. And I absolutely love it. And then what

you'll do is you might not have the capacity yet, but one day you will when your little girl comes. but I would say when you're wanting advice on, you know, your wife, whether you're away or she's alone, it's almost like, how would you want, how would you want your daughter to be treated if she was with somebody who was either overseas in the military or is absent? Like, again, sometimes that's just the, that's the, that's the hand you, that's the hand you're dealt with. Yeah. That's the life that is chosen on being married to somebody who's with their job and career is absent a lot of the time. Like you as a girl dad, how would you want that man to treat your daughter if he was away? And you'll find a lot of those answers that way as well. And then you'll kind of know things to ask, things to feel excited about with your wife.

Because I feel like that gives you a nice little guiding light when you do finally have your baby girl. I love that answer That's a good answer I've been joking around in the office Sometimes with some of the single guys When they're telling stories of like You know dating and text that they're sending back and forth Then I'll especially Ferda

That's what he's talking about It's just yeah I'll go Hey that's Scarlet you're texting keep that in mind He's like oh bro you're so right You're so right You're so right Yeah Ferda that's a that's a that's a seaman team six

member right there. He's right there with chef. Yeah. Second Command, would you say, Chef? At least. He might be, what was the military branch where it's like the Goon berets? Yeah, but like, I'm talking about the actual like the Delta Squad guys who are just like they're like black ops. Oh, yeah, yeah.

Furta might be a Goon Barre. He might be a Goon Barre that's on Seaman Team 6. Yeah. Yeah. And for people, if you're new, tuning in. The tears we have here, Papa Team 6, those are the fathers. Yep.

Thanks again for the great laughs and loving tears. P.S. I hope you find a way to ship to Canada soon. Double PS. Go bills. Yours truly, Dustin. Dustin, thank you for reaching out on your email. Disher the Sixer.

Disher the Sixer. Congratulations, man. Congrats, dude. Congratulations on the new baby girl. I got Mattsum 1025 on YouTube. PT6. Brutal start to the week. My dog got six Saturday night, Sunday morning.

Take him to the vet. Find out it's pretty much nothing they can do. So we had to put him down. Dang, dude. I hate that. I have a six-year-old and a four-year-old and a four-year-old. My six-year-old was devastated.

The four-year-old doesn't quite understand yet. Took us a couple days because it was definitely unexpected, was for sure looking forward to the pod this week. Dang, dude, that stinks. Yeah. I was lucky enough that I was like high school age when we had family pets. But the way it's lining up with Scarlett,

Wrigley and Goose are, they're a bit older. They're like seven. and I'm like, oh man, she's going to be like five or six. Yeah, I want to say waffles like five or six years old. Yeah. So I'm sure that'll be a moment. That's a hard one. But I think it can be, I think that it can be dealt with like in a really cool way,

how you treat it of like, you know, talking through, if they're old enough, like, talking through what has happened. You know, dogs, they don't live as long and here's why and da-da-da. But, you know, the great thing is we can get a new dog or we can get blah, blah, blah. Got to get a new. It's the new dog, bro. Yeah. Yeah, I remember when I was like the same age.

So my parents, they did the whole get a pet first before having a kid for the whole responsibility factor. So Conan, he was a Rottweiler. Stud Rottweiler too. I love that. I look like a guy who owns a raw one. Yeah, a couple of them. They're good dogs. It's all about the owner.

It's about the owner. It's about the owner. It ain't the dog. It ain't the breed. It ain't the dog. It ain't the breed. Aren't they like the number one attack? I'm going to say, hey, hey, it's the owner. They paint them in the wrong light.

So I was like the same, I was like a year behind Conan. And I was like somebody who, you know, I like, got into the dog bowl. I ate the dog food. My parents had to like, I hate the dog. That's where Scotty got it. Bro, Scottzilla, man.

She's just like her daddy. She's just like her daddy. But I'd be in there at the bowl, eating the dog food. They'd have to, like, set me on the outside of the gate and stuff. And I'd be crying, trying to hang with Conan. I was the only one because Connie,

he was a little guard dog now. Oh, yeah. I growl and you get close to the bowl, but I could just crawl up there and just eat with Tony. He would let you? Yeah. I would go and flip the, change the channel on the TV back when you had to go do it on the TV and my dad would get

all pissed off and want to tan my ass and and um he saw it to me one time I did it again he started to approach me and then Conan got in the middle of my dad no stuff was growling at my dad yeah just knowing that I was you know I was about to get a little licking uh-huh um so I was close with Conan and so Conan Rottweiler's lived to around like 10 years old and so we lost Conan when I was 10 and my you know my dad he was everybody was grieving about it mourning the loss of Conan and my parents handled it well

I was very sad but again you get a new dog it's like new life yeah kind of passes the time but it was it was tough when we lost Conan Conan was a good boy Conan was a good boy do pets pets are so awesome pets are awesome gosh Marley and me

I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. And we were thinking I'm originally calling it. it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers was...

This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, Hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys.

Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Do this and keep up the amazing work with the podcast. that comes from Nick Sexton Nick Sexton thank you brother I would say you're the

closest removed from firstborn yeah do you have things that jump out at you that you wish you had advice on because Scarlett is what 10 weeks 10 weeks ago really 11

we'll call it 11 okay yeah the piece of advice that I would say is that Any little thing, I know for any listener that has listened to every episode, I am sorry if I sound like a broken record. But I do think this is, if I had a book or like a quote that you could quote me on for being a good dad in those first couple months, all the little things are big things. So if you remember to wash that bottle after you fed, wife will notice that and wife will appreciate it.

if you remember to put the you know you went into the baby's room because now you have a whole another load of laundry you got to do that you weren't used to go in there and get the kids laundry without you know even tell them the wife and go run that laundry and when she opens up the dryer later that day and sees that the kids clothes has already been you know washed and dried she is going to be stoked like and I'm giving myself that advice I fall short in that area all the time. But as far as like, how do I want to absolutely kick ass as a dad? It's like all those little things that, oh, I'll do that later. Oh, you know, do it right then and there and do it for both the kid, your wife, but for yourself too, it's going to make you feel like a part of everything.

Because it's so mom when she's pregnant. Like it's really just mom and like taking care of mom and how can I help mom and then once baby's there it's like okay you're up dad like what do you got and if you step to the plate and you're doing all those little things you're mother-in-law dad-in-law everybody's going to be going he's doing a good job he's kicking ass that that would be my advice dude well said thank you i don't think anything needs to be added to that but very well said thank you because you're right it is it's it's all mom and then like as dads i would assume it's just like being Being a guy, like being a male, it's, you know, you think to yourself, if you had, like, I had an awesome mom growing up.

So mom did a lot of stuff for me. Like my dad, he was the one who went to work, commuted an hour, you know, an hour of working back to each day, kind of like the working dad, he worked a lot. He had to work a lot. And so my mom did everything around the house. So growing up and it's three boys, no female energy. you just think mom takes care of everything. Like mom always has all the answers.

So when I'm, like when I'm a husband and my wife is pregnant and everything else, like there are times where you just think, oh, you know, Charles got this. Like, mom just know how to do this stuff. And the truth is they don't either. Like they just, you know, they have to figure it out. And you don't want them to feel alone in the process. That's the entire game. It's like, that's the entire game is like asking those extra questions.

So that way you're prepared not being told what to do afterwards. There's a few times where Trout would have to tell me afterwards. And it's like, man, why is she on my ass about stuff? Like I'm trying where it's like, I need to seek out this type of preparation before I even get in these situations. Yes. Where it's like if I am doing the laundry, do I need to dry every article of clothing or some do I need to be hang drying them?

You know, mom can get a little chippy. Mom can get going or the women can get going. Hey, you're supposed to hang dry this one. Or like cleaning the bottle. It's like I would do just the shortcut at times where I'll just put the hot water in and put the soap and I just shake it up. I'll just shake it up, rinse it out and put it on there. Hell yes.

Shoot back, hey, sweetheart, sometimes you do got to get, you got to twist the top off, you got to pull the rubber part out of the plastic and clean the insides, because if not, there'll be some residue inside there. And I'm just like, yeah, she's right. I'm literally just taking the shortcut here. But I need to be the guy that cleans out the bottle, so that way it's just sitting there. And then she sees it so they know that the effort is being put forth.

But that was well said, man. Also, Cheekode and wives plug your ears. If you take the nipple. out, I've gotten it down to where I can one hand it, where I take the nipple out of the top and both pieces stay in my hand and get a little, you know, underneath the water, put it on the dry ground. A little dad act, little dad, that. Which, little dad, dad.

A little dad, that. She didn't hear it. You told her my, you told her earplugs. I used the brush. I use the brush every time, honey. Yeah. But, you know, you do a little hand. Well, Charles said to this shit, like, you never do the, do the nipple.

She's not wrong. Like, it's been just a handful of times where I've thought to do it. Yeah. I love being there trying to shake and I'll see her coming around the corner and then I kind of twist it off. This brush is awesome that you got this brush is incredible. This thing's crazy. But she ain't come around the corner. There we go.

She'll be all right. I would still drink it. I legitimately love using this brush. Like this is crazy. I love this. I will say not a dad win, but like those moments of when you're able, when you're doing all those small things and you are operating independently of your wife on. preparing for the baby to go to outside time, getting the diaper bag ready,

washing bottles, making bottles. You'll get into a rhythm where you're like, dude, I do have this to where Jill and I wanted to do a birthday dinner just her and I on Thursday. And the way it worked out, she was like, I have to go get my nails done and then go straight from there to the restaurant. I don't know.

Like, can you take Scarlett and meet me at the restaurant? I don't want to do that. to you, do you feel comfortable doing that? I was like, I got it. I got it. I know everything that needs to go in the diaper bag. I'll have the duna. I got it.

And dude, rolling up to blue sushi and walking in with Scarlett and everybody, oh, my gosh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Pull up to the table and then mom, like, rolls into the restaurant later and just seeing the smile on her face, I was like, I got this. I got this. Yeah, because I want to say early in the game, it's like you're something there trying to get the diaper bag ready. And I'm like, hey, what all do we need to put in here?

Buddy. Well, being on this show helps too. And I mean that. Like being on this show helps too. Of like Jill helping to prep me, but like all the little dad hacks that I've been getting from guys. I've been getting from you. It helps, dude. Yeah.

Stacks up. Yeah. We got a Turtle 19 XX here, new shirt idea. I rode the shockwave this weekend. It might be tricky with copyrights, but might be tricky with copyrights. it be worth that everyone loves an inside droke. Road the shockwave. Hey, just the wolf on top of a roller coaster, like right at the drop.

He's just about to go down the drop. He's in the front car just would be electric. The shockwave this weekend. I got one from Tyler Grosswick, 4-536 on YouTube. He said, can we get Moneyline per episode that Shirm starts to shed a tear? Keep up the great workboys. Love that. the book is going to, you know, hey, they say Vegas always wins. I don't know.

You bet. The line right now after these last couple episodes, you're looking at what, a minus 250 on tears? That's exactly where I was. I think y'all are being kind. You could say minus 600 and when I hurt my feelings. Minus 250. Thank you. What are the odds? Hey, what are the odds? That's coming later. That's coming later. I have one last one ruler of Latvaria. PT6 here, y'all are the best. So I have two boys, two and five-year-old. My two-year-old with the last week has randomly become afraid of monkeys. Wife and I don't know where he got it from, but it's taking an extra hour to get him to bed trying to assure him no monkeys are in the house.

Good. Fuck. Yes. Yesterday, the wife tells me to let him watch. Toy Soy 3. He hadn't seen it yet. Well, near the end, he comes running and screaming because there's a mean monkey. Oh, no. Toward the end of the movie. Good. And now today she sends a group, she sends a text at nap time and now he's even afraid of nap time. Good. Love it loud. You all are awesome. Keep it up. I have a hack for this. Go ahead. My parent, I was very afraid of monsters

under my bed and in my closet. My brother was actually the one that coined this. So shout out Jordan. Aerosol deodorant. Something safe to spray. You could do some sunscreen. It's monkey sprayed, dude. And go spray down everything in the house and take little guy.

It was a son, right? Yeah. Yeah. Take a little guy with you and just go spray everything down. And just be like, it's monkey spray. Right, right. I love that idea, by the way. Maybe a lot of fragrance in the house.

Maybe wife won't like that idea. But maybe she'll love it. Maybe she'll love it. Another little one would be like stickers that say like monkeys are terrified of these stickers and you put the sticker on the crib. You put it at the door. You put it wherever a little man wants to put it. So that way he knows monkeys are terrified of these stickers.

They like keeps them away. It scares them off. And a great way to segue your son into fandom of whatever your favorite sports team is by just a bunch of stickers of said sports team. Now we're cooking. Hey, there is nothing that scares a monkey away like a Baylor Bear. Are you kidding me? Or Nebraska Cornhusker.

You throw this in anywhere. You know what that in also stands for? No monkeys. No monkeys. That's an in right there. A red one. They're scared of the color red. No monkeys.

And you just put that everywhere, dude, and then your kid's going to love Nebraska. Yeah. Those are great. Those are great little. Hey, good dad has right. Hey, we're good at this. We're getting good at this. Okay.

I will fly through these. These are my last two. I'll go back to back. And if there's anything... Gotta keep it under an hour. Got to keep it under an hour. So please. KJ.

underscore Kitchens on YouTube says Pt Sicko. He did the PT6 Echo here. Listen to the pod since the days in the gravel lot with no AC, a true tier one. True tier one. Asking how many Matt Neely's would it take to take down Daddy Luan? Lifelong titans fan, boy dad of two years. years in deploying for second mission due May 26 congratulations dm sherman last week about his dad loss he voice message me back lost my shit made the wife listen and i've told basically anyone that

would listen i'm obsessed with the show i'm obsessed with all of you boys i only live an hour from the shop so let me know if you want a psycho on the pod shout out willy c for operating with the wife uh gone love you all uh peppononones P.S. Wolf emoji, Deke Derek should be the name. Big Deke Derek should be the name. Big Deke Derek should be the name. Also, send a voice message to KJ, as he said.

I'm sorry to try to do that more. I love that. I think it's fun. But I had a friend that you actually met that came by the office, Oakes, that was close friends with Matt Neely. And that was my message back to him. I said that my friend Oaks is also one of the reasons that I'm here today working for you guys. So I thought that that was a cool little Matt Neely working his way through.

So shout out. And for those who are curious about Matt Neely, Matt Neely was one of our first, he was our first social media guy, one of the first guys that worked with us on the bus. And he suddenly passed away in that first year in October. And so Matt Neely is huge. There's huge lore around Matt Neely and his super. fandom with the Titans and then being very pivotal with busts with the boys and it's very early stages in our first year so that's paying homage to matineele it would take seven matneelys to take down a taylor leone it would take seven seven he was pretty he was bigger than me

yeah you got to think you know one on each limb of taylor how many how many sure the head one for the piece and then you know that's six and then just seven because taylor's number 77. Yeah, that's true. That's true. Last one, we got Mason Clay Donaldson 21. New to the PT6 squad, but dad of a two and a half year old daughter and a three-day old son, congratulations Mason, writing this comment as I rock my son at midnight listening to the pod while I let the wifie sleep to get some rest. Just wanted to say that this podcast has inspired me to be more intentional and present to both my two-year-old and my newborn. Good stuff, look forward to hearing more stories, advice, and lessons.

Keep it up. Pt Sixer out. Thank you, brother. Thank you, Mason. Yes. I love that we made the trailer with that in mind, like the launch trailer for this show, with somebody listening to it in the wee hours of the morning.

Yeah. And then you have it right there. I know. Thank you, Mason. That's so sick. Should we get to some crack a cold one? Dad losses, some ups and downs. I have a crack of cold one.

My crack a cold one this week goes to Scotty Joe Lee, Scott Zilla. Oh, he's got Zilla. As you all know her. She's standing for like 10 seconds at a time, bro. Yes. Yesterday I was like, well, you know, I was watching. I was watching the games and I just skiing over and she's just standing up next to me

and got her hands in the air looking at me. I was like, hang on, Liddette, let daddy take a video real quick. Got a little video over. I can plug to you guys so you can show it on the screen. But Scott Zilla is standing a little bit now. Scottie is going to be a problem in the best way. Yeah. she oh god i love her so much over under on how many days of her walking i think she walks before she turns

one i do she's 10 months right now yeah you i mean you learn it's not like it just happens once they start standing yeah but i think she'll start walking before she turns one i bet she starts walking what you said 10 months like on the dot right she's 10 months she is she was 10 months 12 days ago So here in three weeks, you think she'll be walking? Probably four. Four? Yeah, maybe. It's tough, man.

Like, Rue did a really good job of, like, I would stand, like, I would stand Rue, like, on my body like this and she could, like, walk up my chest. I felt, like, early into where she was, like, trying to walk and everything else. Scotty doesn't really, like, move her legs and walk a whole lot. Very sturdy. And you've seen her army crawling. Like, you know. I've already made the comparison Michael Parsons on third down.

Some are you even saying Max Crosby. Yeah, yeah, some are saying Max Crosby as well. It'll just depend, man. You've got to get her legs going. I think when I get home today, it's time to start putting in some work with her little walker. Because she was walking. She was like standing up against

Rue's seat at the dinner table and having it and it was kind of moving it, like walking and moving it. So I'll get her going. When does the head, like, they're able to start hold their head up because scarlet's almost there i feel like is that you want to research that you want to research that like three or four months where their head gets sturdy and you can kind of maybe maybe toss start tossing them up in the

air and stuff just start rolling them around like how you wrestling that ain't going yeah six months six months six months oh really around six months okay because she's you know two and some change on months and like I'm seeing her lifting her head and keeping it up. When I'm putting her on my chest she's keeping this right here. I'm like, oh my God. So she's holding

her head pretty sturdy. Very sturdy. Could you toss her up? I don't know. I've done some lifts. I have done some lifts. And you got to feel it out. You got to start here and then just kind of go up a little fast and it kind of drops down. That's how I kind of know with Scotty like I'd go, hey. And she's like, all right, maybe

a little too soon. Maybe a little too soon to toss you in the air. I brought up the idea of lifting Scarlet. And she goes, you're not, you're not tossing her. I said, I lifted her. I'm not tossing her, honey. I'm not tossing, sweet. I'm not tossing here.

I'm lifting. But Scarlett's old face when I lift her up, she just starts beaming, dude. She's smiling? Oh, that's why I crack the cold one. Dude, there's nothing better when they start smiling.

I will send it to chef and Derek so we can have it on the podcast. But this happened two weeks ago. I was facetiming my dad. Of all moments for Scarlett to have her very first smile with me. She was on the changing table. I was facetiming dad.

and my dad took this screenshot right here. Oh, that is awesome, bro. I mean, look at that. The boy's kind of went out right there. Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo. And I have my boys hat on. That's the best part. I'm wearing the boys hat.

Bro. Oh, dude. And she just loves the changing table. And I was going, do you love your dad-daz? Do you love your dad-daz? I'm kind of doing this with her hand. And she, you know, the eyesight started going up. And she's like, I'll make a little noises and big smile.

And I'm just, my dad was totally silent. I was totally silent. We're both sitting there just like, oh my God. That was incredible. And you knew that it wasn't just like her randomly smiling. Like she was looking at me and was like smiling because I was in her face talking to her. It was, oh, it was good. It was really, really good.

That juices me up for you guys. Thank you. Because smiling is just the best. And I feel like, too, when smiling starts happening, like for the mom, it's such a massive win. Because again, these little, these little minions, bro. What's it been? 10, 11 weeks? Yeah.

It's like when they finally start smiling, you're getting something in return. Yeah. Right? Because your entire life is sacrificed for them when they're newborns to where it's just eat, sleep. It's take, take, take, take. moms in postpartum and feeling all these emotions, all these things are going on in her body. For dads, it's like the stress of like being a good dad, being a good husband, all the things.

And when the baby starts smiling, it's like instead it's all the take, take, take, take, and you're finally getting something in return now, which I feel like it's such a big win. You as a parent, especially for the moms, especially for the mom. Jill's been loving it. And she's been talking to Scarlet Way. We both have been talking to Scarlet Way. Yeah. And just like in the mornings, how much Scarlet.

loves the mornings. And when it's both me and Jill over her, when we're both standing over, oh my God. And she's looking at both of us and she's got a clean dipy on. And she's in a clean onesie and you can just see it all in her face

and just the biggest, now she's just a smile machine these last two weeks and a giggle machine, like just making little like, like she wants to talk so bad. And you're just like, oh. it's crazy dude with the

they always saw you have said this that you're gonna love her more and more and more like as time goes on yeah yeah the whole wait till they're this one wait yeah yes dude and it's like it truly is crazy just how much more

I told Jill I just said I'm in trouble I'm in huge trouble yeah because I thought I love Scarlett and I thought I knew how much I loved her but keep enjoying it man my first instinct is like just wait just wait but it's like just keep keep doing your thing bro

it just gets it weirdly just gets better and better and it's nothing that you're missing out on with me saying that it's just it gets better well do you just talking about rue holding those teddy bears and being like I thought I was going to sleep with you like I told that story to Jill I said

imagine me in that situation yeah we would be halfway to Dairy Queen getting some ice cream too. Yeah. And she's sleeping in the bed. Yeah. Oh, my God. All right, let's take a potty break. Potty break. We'll see after the potty break. We'll see after the potty break.

But this one's extra special. So how did we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas Brothers was... This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes.

I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, Hey Jonas, and then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen.

Dad, but I smell it. Do you smell? So when we were on Pottie Break, I got a little, little, a little tooth slip. And right before we started recording, he goes, oh, that's a smelly boy.

I'm talking and breathing through my mouth. I am too. It sounds like you have a dad loss. I got a couple. Oh, really? Couple dad losses.

You know on last week's episode, it was Charles going to come home and I'm going to pass the house test. It's going to be spotless, X, Y, and Z. Yes. It was. Oh, no.

And this is one that just snuck by me. This isn't, yeah, I don't know what to say. It's snubbed by me. But we traveled to, you know, that night on Wednesday, I flew to New York because we had ESP in the next day. Yes. I took off at 8.30. Charles ends up landing at 10 coming home,

so we're two ships passing the night. Don't get to see each other. Great song, by the way. And you know it's like you want your wife just to come home to a clean house So that way they don't have to stress about anything going on. They can just unpack their stuff. They can just probably crawl in bed. Get ready for bed.

Go hug the kiddos because I'm sure I know she was excited to see them. But I get to my hotel probably like 1230 in the morning. And then Charles sends me a photo of essential oils just spilled all over her nightstand. Was that you? It wasn't me. It was rude. I hate pointing the finger at Rue Yeah, yeah, yeah

But it was her Because you know how she stayed with me those nights When she was gone And there was one night So the essential oil sat there for like a couple days Apparently it was like bubbling up on the wood And got all over her books and photos Oh no

Yeah But what happened was When Rue was Sleeping with me one of those nights I go upstairs Or I go and get something upstairs whether it's a sleep machine or I had to get something upstairs and break it back down through Ruby being in the bedroom.

When I came back downstairs, she was like, she was just telling me, she was like, dad, the lamp fell. And I picked it up and put it back like it's okay. And she must have knocked the lamp over. Yeah, yeah. But I'm sitting there and I'm listening to her story and she's like, I knocked the lamp over, but I picked it up. It's okay.

It's okay. I picked it up. It's not broken. And I look at the lamp and it seems like it's right up in the right spot where it was. I just look at it. I go, oh, great job, sweetheart. That's awesome. And then I go on to, like, brush my teeth and get ready for bed.

I didn't check the nightstand. Yeah. I'm just, I look at the lamp. I'm like, yeah, it seems like nothing's wrong with it. And if it fell and she put it back up, like, that's low-key awesome. Like, great work, kiddo. So I don't even check the nightstand, but apparently it knocked over the essential oils. The essential oil was everywhere on her nightstand.

And the chart was like, you just didn't want to check. You didn't just care to check the other stuff that's sitting on the nightstand if the lamp fell over. I'm like, dude, I was moving and grooving. She kind of told me this story, and I looked at the lamp, and it seemed like it was just fine. Roo reached up and turned it on. It worked. So I was like, oh, great job. Gave her pat on the ass and kept it moving.

So that was one dad loss. There's also nothing worse than just getting a picture of said thing, because I've been on that side of it, too. Yeah. You just get a picture. Were there any words with it? Was it just a picture? It was what happened here. Yeah.

I forget what the breakdown was. But, um, Yeah, dude. And it bummed me out just because I know the effort I was putting in. And I was exhausted when I was in New York. I was like, all right, let's try to close my eyes and get some sleep. We set up like four hours before we had to wake up for ESP in the next morning. Yeah. But yeah, that's one dead loss. I have a second one. So when we went to the Husker game last weekend and flew out on Friday. Yeah. Oh, I forget. Oh, yeah, it was my birthday. So we went out to Benji's Bagels. We had a great little family. morning and then charo had to go she had to go do something for bar three so i took both the kiddos i went and dropped to ru off at school and then um i went and dropped to ruff at school and then i had scotty and i just had to take scotty home to see ojie and uh but what i forgot to do i drove to the

airport and then obviously took off and then i get a couple texts from charro like um you left the base Left the base. Oh. Left the base in my truck. Oh. And you only have one set of keys? I did have a sparing. I told her, I'm like, hey, because our nanny, she has a base too.

So I think she got linked up with, with Oji to get the second base. Because we have, we have a base in every car for Roo. We only have two bases for Scotty. And one's with the nanny and one is with Charo. Is she doing Aduna? Yes. Okay. Yes. The Duna, like where you just click it in,

it's every time about it. And then you just, the car seat, you click it up in there. Which, by the way, that's survival kit right there. That's, you get a Duna. I know we've said that one before. We have new viewers. We have new listeners. You want to add to your survival kit bag. It is Rock with the Duna. Super easy. Seameless with the car seat. Oh, yeah.

But I left. I didn't get out the base. So Charles was rocking without a base until she got linked up with Aji. and then I didn't take the backpack out of the truck. Oh, the diaper bag? The diaper bag. The diaper bag backpack. I just did that. If it makes you feel better, I just did that last week.

When Jill came up to the office, the bag was in my car. Yeah. Come up to the office and come grab the diaper bag. Yeah. So when she told me about, she was like, did you also, did you happen to put the diaper bag anywhere? Because she couldn't find it. And she's like, you know, not trying to say, hey, did you have the backpack too? but hey, did you happen to...

She was being sweet about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was like, ah, that's in the truck. That's in the truck, too. Sweetheart, it's my birthday. But, hey, it's my birthday. And P.S., I love you and I prioritize you. A lot.

Yeah. That's when I told her. I was like, I do have a spare if you wanted to drive over to the truck and get all these things. Yeah, yeah. So another dad loss. She did have... Just want to just fleeting brain.

man i know sometimes you just we just we just don't think well you're i was bragging before about the uh birthday dinner that i took scarlet to all by myself i left the diaper bag in my car that was from the same thing so with a win came a loss yeah yeah yeah but charlie got through it got through it charo had very kind words for you on her birthday post by the way she did i don't usually read the captions that say show more but i was investing I clicked on it. I was like, hey, that's a good read. That's a good, like, for you.

I was like, I bet Will, that was a good read. She's a good little writer, too. She is. Like, Charo is big. My wife is big on cards. Cards. Love written word. Love, yeah.

Writing on a card. Yep. Like, that's the biggest thing, whether it's birthday, whatever it is. She's a big card person. That to her is like, let's like a love language for her. Did that kind of spark your interest in writing? Yes and no. Almost like I know I have to put in effort.

Yeah. Like again, whether it's birthday, like I could not have a gift. But if I have a handwritten card, that's the moneymaker right there. Because you have ability, I think, in writing as well. Thank you. Like the stuff that you've written for the show, but also like when you write down your thoughts and stuff, it's very succinct. Some Barstool blogs in the past. Yeah.

Once a year. I was good for a blog once a year. And all the time, it's like I want to challenge myself more to write. It's just doing it, man. Yeah. It really is just doing it. And it is such a lost art form. I feel like with kids, they, now in public schools in Texas, cursive is no longer mandatory.

Yeah. And that breaks my heart. And with Chad GPT now, writing is just going to get worse. worse. Yeah. Or better. I know, you know, Charles hates Chad GPT for that reason of writing. Yeah.

Because she just, she enjoys, like, she's reading this book. I want to say it's like Onyx and Storm or Onyx Storm or something like that. Yeah, you were talking about this. She's a, Charles, a huge reader, huge reader. It's a fantasy. Yeah, she can run through books, bro. It is crazy. And so she appreciates, she appreciates writing, reading.

Reading, storytelling. telling yeah yeah so also like with her nice little instagram post she had a nice little card for me written the whole thing was covered that's so well done that's so well done shout out charo yeah i i would you know what you know like i don't do it i want to more but encourage everybody to like journal or write down their stuff and again this is coming from somebody who tells himself to do it and I don't do it. I have a, I have like a, I got a cool little like, Charles and I, like one of our little inside sayings that we kind of got connected on and, and, what's the word I'm looking for? Bonded over. Bonded over. Carpe Diem. Oh, the phrase Carpe D.M. Seize the day.

Seize the day. And when we were over in Italy and we were in Rome and everything like that, you know, I love Stoicism. But there were these like journals, these like diary journals, whatever. those little gift stores. And there's one, like, leather-bound one that had Carpe DM etched in the front. So I had, like, gotten that one with the intention to write in it and my thoughts, philosophies, whatever it is, write about the kids, life. And I only have about two pages of it written. That was when we went to Italy a few years ago.

So, again, I'm encouraging everybody to do it because I think it is, I truly think it's like, you'll get to this point. But thinking of all the times back when Rue was little or with Scotty being little, right now like rue still is little but all the moments i wish i would just have like journal down and written down because you you think you're going to remember but you just don't yeah it's why i'm huge and like take as many videos and photos as you can is there already some things that i'm forgetting about or i got to remember or if like scotty's at a certain age i'm like man where was rue during this time and i'm just like god damn i will if you would just write this

shit down man i need i need to get better at that too i do have a i have uh to brag of myself a really and auditory memory with like, I often have friends be like, dude, how do you remember that movie line like verbatim? Like, I'm able to retain stuff very well. But I'm like, if I applied that to my own life of journaling and then being able to like read that stuff,

I feel like I would retain stuff even better when it's like visual retention. You'd be good. You'd be a good little writer. Yeah. I did have a little fun stuff here and there. like little scripts and etc but i need to like write my thoughts down yeah i need to do it right to your kids right to my kids you want to hear a sad story yes okay so my mom wrote a book wrote in a book

there were three that she had intentions of writing books for dude you're kidding like i guess life I can't tell you what's in there because I haven't read it yet. My dad finds these books after my mom had passed. Yeah. And I was like going through stuff. And the next year, like my mom passed away in December. It was like December 19, 20, 21st, like one of those days. And so not that Christmas, but the entire next year, my dad came across something in the fall,

like when he was like looking through drawers and everything else. And there were these three, there's these three books. and one of them mine was written in. I don't know what's in it, and it wasn't all the way finished, but my mom apparently had written to us, like she had intentions of like writing to each of us. I know it's sad, holding back some tears.

But the other two weren't written in, which makes me sad. And if Cody and Wyatt listened to the show, like I don't even know if they'd know. Because part of me felt bad that I had one, and they didn't have one. Yeah. You know?

Yeah. And I haven't read it because part of me is like I'm scared to read it because then in my mind that might be then there's nothing else. You know what I mean? Yeah. That's sad. That's sad story. Sad story. We got to have to lose on the show, right?

Hey, that's sad. That's sad story. But this is why I would say to that is I would never pressure you. to like do anything but you should one million percent read it and you do it in your own time like you find the time that you're ready but you got to read that and you're what you're you're not wrong part of me is because it sits by my bed so it's like all my night staying next to my bed you have it yeah i have it my dad what i was going to say the next christmas the next year my dad gifted it to me on Christmas. Oh, wow. And he was like, I came across, I came across these journals,

these books, and one is for you. Oh, heavy, bro. Dude, what, oh, man. And so it sits on my nightstand and it's like, I just don't, part of me is like I have that excuse to where if I read this, these are the last words, and then there's nothing else after that. Like, I know I still have, um, like, her words that they're written to me. Yeah. And yeah, part of me is just like, I just don't have. like the the stones or the courage to open it up and start like reading her words uh without sounding cheesy like written word is forever we have books that like people are still being quoted from fair point 13th century 14th century that's a great point if anything i think it will give your

uh mom life uh by reading those and letting those words live on that would that would be my thoughts on I think that's Oh man Your mom's a good one dude Your mom's a good one She's a legend bro Damn Yeah

I appreciate those words though That actually Yeah That makes a lot of sense You'll find Because she'll talk to me about it But she won't talk You know

It's more of like I'll be like Sweet I just I can't do it yet I don't want to And I don't blame her I have the same thing With Jill's stuff with

Her dad like I just feel like that's a place where I'd you know I let Jill make those decisions so it's just hard you obviously see the emotion that comes out when I just talk about her it's like I feel like if I open the book and just start reading words like I won't even be able to make it oh dude very far and then I'm like man I just don't want to be in that emotional state yeah you'll find the right time yeah you're right but that also that that that is like it's like it's like it's like it's like it's inspiring me to now want to write stuff for Scarlett. I know. Yeah. Because when the moments I do think about, I'm like, will, you just got it. You got to start writing. Jill wrote a letter.

The second time I took her on a date of that, like, she knew that I was going to be the guy that she married. And she read that. She kept it in her purse forever. And when I proposed to her, she brought out that letter and read it. dude I had to pull over like driving over

and proposing to Jill because I was like this like trying to drive yeah like written word is so crazy that's awesome yeah I need to do that more

let's challenge ourselves dads yeah that's a good challenge it's a good challenge everybody's cashing their bets right now they're cashing their bets what was the line I feel like bald guys can't cry either.

I'm telling you it's minus six. It should have been minus 600. Oh my gosh. We also, we got to get some wigs for Will. Sorry, Derek, because the only thing I could ever offer to you guys as a dad hack is I heard it a long time ago, make a Google Drive or a Gmail account for your daughters. And so that's where I have a journal for myself that's a Gmail account that is just my name journal in every big day. So when I was proposing to my fiance, when I was doing these things, I write notes to myself. And I don't go back and look.

And so if you do want that small bit of it, I always, like, one thing I can't wait to do when I have kids is like make them an email account and just write like, like, first day of preschool, stuff like that. Just because it's the digital wage and things like that. So that's how I get my writing out. Just throwing that up. That's a sick idea. That's a great idea. That's a dad hack. That's a dad hack, man.

I have my trenches. if we want to go into that second. Absolutely. Because I don't, for the first time and for the dad's history, I don't have a dad loss. That's big. I bet we could find one though if we really wanted to dig for it. Sure, we could call Jill.

We have a dad loss in five seconds. You're like, yeah, did you see the toilet seat this morning? There you go. Dad loss. But the trenches, Jill's birthday party. It was absolutely incredible. Jill being pregnant has not had like the opportunities to be as social as she has wanted to be and to like host events and to drink alcohol in like a celebratory way and all those things. And so her 30th birthday, she did a fantastic job of just ordering like all these little tablecloths and little lanterns to like hang in the trees and a twinkle life.

and her stepdad built that A-frame I was talking about on last week's episode. We hung all the twinkle lights and it was just like an epic night. Chef pulled through. Ferta pulled through. Ryan pulled through. Chef looked good in his teddy bear hat too. He rocked the teddy bear hat at Jill's party and looked like a dude. But the trenches part of it was doing all that with no family in town and like balancing

taking care of Scarlet and setting up for the party. And I just have to kind of give myself a pat on the back, but really give Jill a pat on the back because it was so sick seeing us operate with like, Scarlet's crying, Scarlet's crying, put her in the baby Bejourne, put her in the front yard,

and we're rocking her in the front yard as we're like putting up the tables and I'm hanging the lights. And then now Scarlet's in a good moon. She's looking at all the leaves up in the trees and going on. Oh, y'all, making noises. And we're like, oh, Scarlet, you like the party.

And, like, everything was just so incredible. The night of the party was incredible. We did have, I will keep his name out of it, because I have not talked with him about sharing this. But we had a dude at the party that was coming fresh off of a torn labrum surgery. And he was talking to chef. And while he was talking to chef, his shoulder went. out of socket and I guess like the world closed in on him and he passed out like four or five times

like fully at the front door of our house like pass out into my arms thankfully I was right there and caught him I was like oh man this guy's drunk that's what I thought too and he didn't see it was so weird he kind of like all of a sudden because he was so sober yeah he was looking at me he goes you have all like out of like that you have a bathroom or something here I was like oh what shirms hat let me shirm and I'm grabbing shirms over by the trigger badass trigger by the way shermanic thank you Willie shout out rec tech oh yeah yeah shout out rec tech made some halpinia poppers so that was fun amazing uh yeah and he just I didn't see him pass out but he looked I was like man this guy

hammered and just hiding it well it was crazy I catch him and he's fully limp he's around your size not like uh is filled out out, but I mean, way bigger than me. Big boy. Yeah. And so I catch him. I'm like, oh my God. Jared, thankfully out of nowhere, like comes up and we're getting him pulled up.

And dude, he like came back to you. He's like, hey, do you have a bathroom? I'm like, yeah, let's get you to the bathroom. I don't know what's going on. And we get him like five steps into the house. And he just, again, in that time, I like caught him, caught him. And we got him on the couch. And thank God, Jill's a nurse.

like eight of her nursing friends there, that dude was taken care of. They had a stethoscope on them. They were checking pulse. Everybody at the party, like it died for like 10 seconds. And everybody's like, oh my God. Yeah. But it ended up all being good. He was totally fine. We like, we laid him down horizontal and he ended up getting home safe and they diagnosed it with what happened with the shoulder. I guess they popped it back in place for him. It was crazy. but I know but that whole night everything about it with all the little curveball oh and the entire time that that's going on scarlet would not go down for the first time in two weeks she's in her crib the entire time going like screaming as I'm holding this guy and so as soon as we get him on the couch I'm like I got to go tend to scarlet yeah and I was in the nursery for like 20 minutes as the party's going to on just being like come on girl like of all nights i need you to go down need you to go down can i give a quick shout out to shirm because um as someone that was just there him and jill both handled

themselves really really well you'd have a you're aware that scarlet isn't going down they have a baby monitor out there on the tables but they're still like you know extremely kind and courteous it's you know handling it like pros i mean it was very cool to see you guys uh i'm sure that was a lot and internally probably really hectic but you couldn't see that from the outside they were amazing host it was an awesome venue sure i'm on the grill is dangerous dangerous Texas boy i don't know that smoker is a pretty big cheat code i mean you put that day i have an app he said i don't know i don't know people can mess up the smoker yeah yeah well Come on now.

There's a little horrible. If you're messing up a smoker, we need to talk. We need to have a little combo. But the cargo fast doesn't mean Ben Diesel ain't a good driver. Hey, that's true. It's the Indian, not the arrow, as they say. But yeah, it was fun. It was actually shout out chef and shout out Ryan and shout out Matt.

We call him Ferda in this office. Jill said her favorite part of the night was talking to those three guys. and that was my other crack of cold one is I looked at the party, all the twinkle lights, everything's going on, and all of Jill's friends are meeting all of Mitch's friends, everybody's kind of bonding. And I look over and I see Jill with a drink in her hand and y'all had drinks in your hands and they're laughing so hard.

Ferda's doing something crazy. He's like acting something out. Jill's dying laughing. An hour passed by, truly an hour. And I look back up and Jill was still talking to those three guys and they're still laughing. And the next morning she woke up and she said, I got to tell you, my favorite part of the party was talking to those.

She calls them the interns, which y'all aren't interns anymore. But she was like talking to the interns was, they are so much fun. It was just like that life like coming back of like being able to like live and be in the moment, but also bouncing the scarlet, taking care of her. It was awesome. I love that. That was my trenches.

a little story, a little answer that I had with my three-year-old the other day. By the way, I just had another daughter about a month ago. But I also got a three-year-old. The other day, I'm working from home on my computer, I look over my three-year-old is writing on the walls with motherfucking whiteboard marker. I fucking, I reserve judgment.

I wait. She looks over at me. My first thought is the rip her, I knew him. I hold off. So I just ask her, hey, why did you do that? She looks me dead in the fucking eye and says, it wasn't me. It was John Sina. John fucking Sina.

I didn't know what to say, so I immediately dropped the wrestling promo on her. How fucking dare you bring up John, blame John Sina seven-time world champ, the franchise? As a matter of fact, go to your room. It's rough, dude. Raising a baby, you're just basically staring at it fucking all day, making sure it's fine and fucking not dead. A three-year-old, it's fucking war. It's fucking war every day. And they need to teach this shit in schools.

How is the fucking guy supposed to repair for this? What the fuck? the only thing I'll say is how do we know it wasn't john Sina you can't see him we know for a fact how does a three-year-old connect those dots ago ultimate alibi invisible man so funny john Sina he's not he's not wrong about with the three-year-old it is just war verbally at all times 24-7 you say one wrong thing to them

and they think you know they're in their world thinking they're doing whatever it is they just snap at you, bro. Yeah. Like, I'm doing this first. I told you I'm doing this first. Okay, take it easy. Jesus Christ. We also have to put the Rue reaction video in this episode to the hair.

Bro. Me walking in with the bald head and just her like scared for a life, but also still kind of trusting what I'm saying. And her voice as you walk in before she sees you and be, da-da! And then as she sees you, just total monotone. Yeah, like a very nervous energy. Do you like it? Yeah.

She's silent, silent nod. You want to touch it? And she's like, and then kind of like. She was, she was to the, I'm not sure. I had to get her last night because we kind of motivate her with a piece of a cookie for after dinner. Oh, heck yeah. And she was on one, not wanting to eat a hamburger patty. We had burger cut up the burger.

She wanted it with a bun, but all she wants to do is eat the bun, not the burger. Hey, that's a good call. Good call. I was like, sweetheart, I'll get you the bun. We'll get you the bun, but you're eating the burger with it. And she's like, okay, I know. I'm like, well, if you know, then why haven't you already been doing it? And so I'm like tearing off.

the burger bun and then she eats the burger bun and oh i tear off one piece yeah and i put it on her plate and then i'm holding the burger bun and she's like i want more i was like no your bun's right there i want to see how you're going to do the bun and the burger like you said like you said you were going to do you do that i'll give you some more piece of uh uh bread she's like i don't like the burger she got she puts the bread in her mouth and starts eating and she's like i don't like the bird she starts whining and i'm like you know pissed off i'm like you said you were going to eat the burger like you got to eat the burger with the bread and she's like i want more bread i want i want more i want more i want more the bun i want the bun and so i'm like

i'm like fine i'll give you bun but you're eating the burger so i start turning off the bun and putting it so my daughter's a liar now yeah yeah that's what we're doing and she like she like picks up the uh the piece of bun and i'm like you're putting burger on that here i was like here i'll show you how to do it she starts getting fussy and i like take the fork and like get the bun the burger with it. I'm like, this is how you eat it. And then she doesn't want to do it. So she just kind of sits there. And it's what I've kind of been doing recently. Like when I was solo with her last week, like this was this was what I was sitting there with. Okay, if you don't want to eat, you don't have to eat. You can go sit on, you can go sit on the couch. You don't have to eat.

Yeah. And what she would do, she didn't do this last night. But what she was starting to do is she might get up and mozy around the couch or whatever. And then she's like, Dad, I can I have a cookie? You ain't getting a cookie. cookies for CPC Clean Plate Club You only get a cookie if you're part of the CPC And hold on one second We have the membership card right here

Let me Oh yeah, you're not on it Dadaz is on it Dadaz gets a cookie But last night mom is like It got to a point to where she was starting Eat the burger in the bun I was fired up out and I see I told you it's good

It's fun to try new things Because it might taste good That's Daniel Tiger Come on Danny Come on Daniel Tiger and it got to a point where Charles, like, you can eat three more bites and you'll be done or something like that. And so she eats three bites and then she like gets off the chair

and she runs over to get a cookie. And she was like, dad, da, I get a cookie. I get a cookie now. I was like, you can't get a cookie. You're not part of the Clean Play Club. She like, Mama said three more bites. I'm like, yeah, three more bites and you can be done eating. If you want a cookie, you're eating all this burger.

That's CPC. You're, yeah, that's how you get into the, yeah, you got to be CPC if you're going to get a cookie. TBC is three bike club. Yeah. That don't get a cookie. That don't get no cookie. You can be done eating food. If you're full and you're done eating food, then have at it.

You can be done eating food. Yeah. And she said, but I want a cookie. I was like, if you said you're full, then how are you going to have room for a cookie? You can't. You're full. You said you can't eat anymore. And then her wheels are spinning.

How do I? She's like kind of sitting there looking. I'm like, if you. Listen, you ate your three bites. That is amazing. You can be done eating for the night. You can be done eating. You can hang out.

You can go play. You do whatever you want. But if you want a cookie, you're eating that plate of food. She goes over and knocks it out, bro. Let's go. Knocks it out. That's a dad win. Big dad win.

Big dad. And I walked by my wife. You see how dad I handled that one? You're up. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to go watch the game. Then I start breaking it down. Here's like, you know, psychologically.

in her mind. It's what I was telling her while you were gone. Sometimes she didn't want to eat any dinner. Sweeter, you don't have to eat dinner. I'm not even, I feel like if you put the pressure on the kid or you start stressing, which happens. Again, it happens for me like every day. Yeah, yeah. But you start doing that. They just start getting resistive and fighting you about it to where they don't end up eating. You're all done eating food. They haven't eaten a bite of their plate. And you're kind of just sitting there at the dinner table like, sweetheart, we need you to start eating. She wants to play. She wants to journal. She's got this journal to where all she basically does there's like scruble in between the lines.

She thinks she's writing something. She's like, we're like, sweetheart, you got to start eating. I'm finishing my journal. I'm finishing my journal. Then I'll eat food.

I'm like, you ain't even writing nothing to have substance. Just finish that line. I swear that journal's going to be there when you're done eating food. We need to, and also we're, we're good on that.

But we are time wise. It is 932. I texted Columbus in 945 for the, okay, perfect. for the team meeting. But yeah, that's how that's how that has been handling dinner time for parents out there, looking for some techniques, looking for some strategy. Dad, you want to put the wife on some game?

Because after I executed that, I'm kind of telling Charle, like, I'm like, in my brain, I think I'm teaching her what to do because I walk by, I nodger. You see how I handled that one? I would. You gave her three bites. You would have gave her a cookie. I know you would have gave her a cookie. No, that ain't how we handle it.

I would love to see Will on a whiteboard to just Charo. You see how I did that? You see what's going on when we run that? So in her brain, if I just tell her she doesn't want to eat any of her food, I just calmly All right, hey, you don't want to eat? That's fine. You ain't getting no snacks. You ain't getting nothing else.

No juice, no snacks, no TV coupon, no cookie, no nothing. If you want to be done eating, you don't have to eat. We can go get ready for bed. She has to think she's in control, Charo. We got to let her make the mistake and learn from it. Yeah. And that's how we're going to do it right here. Let me show you how.

Yeah. You want to go to bed hungry. Go ahead. I promise you. Do your thing. You don't want to eat food that we worked on. We've had a hard day. We want to just have some love and support here at the dinner table tonight.

And you don't want to respect that. Go ahead. Go ahead. Oh, you just want bread. See how your tummy feels tomorrow morning. Yeah. Let's just eat bread. Yeah.

Go ahead. Eat whatever you want, sweetheart. Do your thing. Oh, you want a cookie. That's funny. Now you're in my world now. You had control. just gave it back to me yeah yeah yeah you want that cookie come eat this plate of food sweetart oh my god

she eats it though oh yeah we are we are we are short on time we're coming up to an hour so we can kick it to our topic quote or lesson of the week do you have one i i have a quote of the week i have a quote as well okay sick do you want to i can go i can go rock paper scissors rock paper scissors Rock paper scissors. Rock paper scissors shoot. Rock paper scissors shoot. Okay. Okay.

Rock paper scissors shoot. Ooh. That's all I go. You want to go first or second? I'll go first. All right. Coil of the week. Oh man, this was really good.

Okay, this comes from my dad loss of like for listeners of the episodes, you know my big dad loss that featured the airport. For somebody that's new, I had maybe the biggest dad loss of all time like two or three weeks ago. and let's just say I should have been in the doghouse for weeks. Jill is a very forgiving wife and we love her for that. During my crash out, I was saying how I felt very, like I felt like I fall short a lot of the time. And that Jill doesn't think that I'm a good dad. Jill's my wife.

and she's sitting there reassuring me that she thinks I'm an incredible dad and then she hit me with this quote which wifey listeners MT-Sixers out there hit your hubby with this one oh man she the next day she said I assure me I just want you to know that when you're at work me and Scarlett we talk about how much we love our dad and how awesome our dad is all the time

when you aren't here. That's it. That's the quote. And that melted me, melted me of just like, you might think you're falling short, but like we talk about how awesome you are and how much we love you when you're not around. And I was just like, oh, I just hold on to that when I'm at work and I miss him that like I have a partner that's sitting there just gassing me up at home. And it just- Juicing you up.

Unless you forgot the diaper bag. Unless I forget the diaper bag. But even when I forget the diaper bag, she's sitting there saying you have the best dad in the world, which I'm just like... Your dad is so awesome. Even he falls short. Even he falls short. Even he leaves the diaper bag in the car. But that was my quote of the week. I love that.

Thank you. I love that the tears fill the eyes again. Yet again. You're a good dude, man. You're a good egg. As are you. Minus 600. By the way, the odds have to be pushed.

I think you're in plus odds. you get multiple cries. It's like, oh, sorry, sorry, sorry, plus 600. That's like two plus touchdown. Yes, I meant plus six hundred.

It's like last year when Chris McAfrey was playing so well that people were like, well, it's minus 200 for a touchdown. Might as well go two tuddies. And he would get the two tuddies a lot. Yeah. That is right. Wait, is it,

if there's a big likelihood of it happening, it would be minus 600, right? because like the odds right but you did it twice oh I see so if you took the first one hey over under the boys yeah over under anytime the boys cry on the episode

likely very likely that got minus 600 you get them twice two separate occasions the odds start you know going down yeah yeah yeah okay I do like that yeah I do like that I have a I have a quote as well let's go One of the greatest things a father can do is to show his children that he too is still learning. And a couple takeaways from that is it shows them humility over pride. So kids see that dad doesn't have it all figured out and it's okay.

And it helps take the pressure off them of being perfect. When they see you falling short and you kind of explaining through your shortcomings, I feel like it helps take pressure off the kids because they see us as the superheroes, right? Like any time a shortcoming happens And you pull from your roll of decks Of an experience from the past And they're kind of like locked in like Oh, Daddy, you cry too

Or Daddy you've gotten boo-boos too Or you know, Rue came up last night When I was putting Scotty down And was kind of crying And I was low-key when she came in I was like, God damn it, Rue Because I was just getting Scottie to sleep And Rook opens up the door

And she's got like the cry Noise is going And she's like, Dad Dad And I'm like, what is this sweetheart? And she was like, I need a hug. I'm like, oh, you want to hug Scotty? She's like, no. I was like, oh, you need nothing.

What's going on? What's wrong? And she's like, I spilled water. She must have spilled a lot of water downstairs. And so I was giving her a hug and letting her know it's okay. That had spills water all the time. I promise if this is going to be okay. You know, even Scotty Jojo, she gets in Waffles Water Bowl every day.

Spills water everywhere. And that's okay. I'm sure. I don't even know the situation that happened. I'm just saying I'm sure you're trying to be perfect and try to do something nice and spilled and that's going to be okay. So that whole humility over pride perspective, it also teaches that growth is lifelong. They learn that growth doesn't stop, whether it's after school, if they're older, after work,

after any big moment in life, that growth is lifelong, that you're always staying curious. You're always trying to figure out ways to get better. And then the third thing is modeling curiosity. Children imitate more than they listen. They see us like seeking wisdom, reading, learning through a failure, struggling, falling short, at times loving on mom like you you're modeling this behavior um because here's something else i came across that i feels like ties the bow on this one okay and that every parent should want it should remember that one day our kids will follow our example and not our advice so we can have

all the words in the world we can have all of the great you know whatever it is one-liners or if they do something wrong and you're kind of telling them what they should be doing or you're always giving them solutions and not like being in the problem with them. If you're always just talking at them and you're not modeling this behavior, you're not modeling these examples. You know, the words, that'll go through one or your out the other. But if they see you modeling this stuff too, that it's okay to not be perfect, that us, that we are, we are also still learning in our superhero form to them, that it gives them the courage to do the same, like as they get older, as they grow like when they're in their own sticky situations.

But yeah, that was my quote. I love that. That was a quote. Dad lesson on it. Thoughts on it. To apply quickly to my own life, just in adulthood, there are multiple situations where I think to myself, not a shot in hell my dad would do that.

Like when I'm pressed up on a situation of, oh, here's the easy way of you could do this. And I just imagine my mom or my dad would be like, no way they would do that. So even to this day, like that you like followed their example or like what that creation of morality or decision making that you have pictured of your parent like here at 32 years old. I'm still sitting there going, no, I'm not going to do that because there's no way my dad would do that. Yeah. No, I agree.

Even on the stuff that the behaviors that we would grow up seeing or witnessing that we wouldn't necessarily want to put into our bag. of parenthood. Or if you don't realize you're doing it, like, maybe this is going to be a broken way of trying to explain this. But let's just say subconsciously, you had, you saw a bad model of behavior from your parents growing up, right? And then you're then a parent one day. And maybe you're not doing the best job.

And you might not even realize that you think you are, but everybody's on you. And you're kind of just projecting all this stuff. And realistically, like, you're just thinking. you're modeling, you're subconsciously modeling the behavior that you saw growing up. So where there's some, you know, probably some therapy sessions or some things that you need to look like closely in the mirror to forgive your parents for or to like learn from that you realize like you were just modeling that behavior. So I think it goes like both ways.

A hundred percent. And you have great examples of how your parents would handle it. And even subconsciously like when you think you're, you know, when you're, you're not doing the best, you don't even know that you're not doing the best. But if you actually sit down and sit with yourself, like say you're sitting there with a therapist, and then you're coming to grips or you're coming to Jesus about, like, you know, the way you are being and you realize it's a lot of a seed that was planted when you were young.

A lot of things that you witnessed that wasn't good for you or good for your soul, that you're not even aware that it wasn't good for your soul. But you're learning that you've been projecting all this out into the world, and, you know, that's when the tears come and you start to forgive yourself and all these things start to happen. But again, you're just modeling behavior that you saw growing. up because a lot of people, majority of people come from, uh, not great situations. Yeah. You know what I mean? We all have experiences with our parents at one time or another, um,

to where it's like, you know this is not a behavior you want to have. Like, it's the whole saying of like, you want to be better than your parents or your parents, they want you to be better than them too. Uh, but those generational curses that you think are curses, but really it's just, you're just remodeling behavior that you thought you, that you thought you had to do that you witnessed growing up. Yes. Which is in. in like most mammals like that behaving like your parents yeah like that is a it is deep-seated in us yeah like that is a normal thing but but the to your point like those things can be broken those things can be yeah identified and eliminated from your bag of shortcomings yeah great example

is just a buddy calling in and saying like when he saw three-year-old drawing on the wall and he's I wanted to react. Maybe he didn't, maybe, like, you know, but just use that example. Yeah. If he grew up in a household to where you're correcting bad behavior in a, like, a verbally negative way, you might not know any different. You think you're parenting the way you know how to parent. Everybody else is soft.

You need to be harder on your kids. When really, it's just a three-year-old writing on the wall. But in that moment, say he was somebody who grew up in a bad, in a bad, milder behavior household, he's wanting to react, but maybe in that moment he's intention. grabbing himself like this is a generational curse that I'm starting to break this is a three-year-old scribbling on the wall like let me just ask her hey what are you doing and then she hit you with that it wasn't me it was john seen but it's moments like that yeah you know what i mean that you can just take from an easy example of this could go that way because the parent doesn't know any

different he thinks this is how you have to correct this behavior of drawing on the wall but really you're scaring them and everything else because they're just a three-year-old and they have no clue what they're doing but if you're that dad like who's frustrated but you can just grab yourself in the moment to be like, you know, hopefully you're in a good mood about it. But if not, you grab yourself and intentionally think, she doesn't know what she's doing. Yeah. Ruru.

Where are we doing? Yeah. Why you get the markers out right now? That's a permanent marker. This is called a permanent marker. And this over here, that's called a wall. Yeah. You want to, yeah, yeah.

You want to know what I'm going to have to make up to fall on the sword for your mother? I did have a whiteboard on it. Yeah. Sweet. I didn't have a whiteboard. Like, I'm going to have to make this make sense somehow. What made you think this is a good idea? I don't know.

I was having fun with the girls. I'll follow on this sword for you. For the love of God, we can't be coloring on the wall. Yeah. I hate to cut us short, but we do have to wrap up. Yeah, we got to wrap up. Good so. Bald Brigade.
