We wanted to do something that highlighted our relationship.

And what it's like to be siblings. We are a sibling rams. No, no. Sibling reverie. Don't do that with your mouth. Sibling Reveory. That's good.

What a day. This is going to be a good one. This guest, I'm not getting the guest yet, but it's just, he's one of my great, great, great friends. He's been on many of my many of my. podcast because I used to have like a thousand of them. I've paired it down. He's been on with his brother. He's been on with his ex-girlfriend who's no longer his girlfriend. And now this dude is going to come on solo with me. And his name is Tay Diggs. And we met doing a movie. And we went out that night and partied and had so much fun. And it was an immediate connection.

and this man has been a part of my life for over 20 years and I love him a lot. We're going to get into stuff. But before we bring him in, he's in a waiting room and make that motherfucker wait for a second while I do my intro. Real quick, big fishermen, I have a boat. There's big bluefin tuna that are off the coast of Southern California

and I finally got one. I hooked, landed a nice big 80-pound. bluefin tuna that after I speak to Tay Diggs, I'm actually going to start the filet process. I know none of you who are listening to this give a shit, but I don't care because I am expressing what makes me happy. And that is landing a bluefin tuna in Southern California on my boat to make Toro an incredible bluefin sushi. I just had to share that with everyone. other than that things are good lost six seven pounds heavy Pilates kick right now you know got ton of energy and uh i just need a job i need an acting gig or maybe i'm gonna quit

maybe i'll fucking quit acting i'm gonna quit acting all right on that note bring tean i can't even believe this is happening you can't no i can't because The strangest part about all of this is that you and I are best of friends, even though we don't talk very often, although in the last six or seven months, we have, yeah, lately it's been sort of, you know, it's been better. But you would think that if you were coming on my podcast,

we would have had some sort of a conversation about you actually coming on, when it's literally just gone through the producers. It's like, oh, Tay Diggs wants to come on. I'm like, all right, cool. And then that's it. Now you're just here. Yeah, it's the business, LA. And we're at that level, baby. It's the business. By the way, how are you? Are you good?

I'm good, man. Yeah, very excited. Walker's 15, and he's going through changes and hoops and, yeah, it's a good time. No, I know. Isn't it? It is crazy, man. As your kids get older, you kind of have to transition with your children. You start parenting them a different way. I remember there was a moment with wild. or, you know, who's my oldest where I was like, oh, shit, wait a minute, I have to take a moment and switch it up a little bit. He's no longer a kid. You know what I mean? He's turning into a young man and I need to, you know, sort of alter the way that I talk to him, that I deal with him. Right. And it's all brand new territory for us, too. You know what I mean? We don't know what the hell we're doing. Oliver, I don't know if I told you this before, but I still

majorly trip out at the fact that you have a family. You always say that. I have told you before because you haven't changed who you are. If you know, people,

they're one way and they have kids and then they act completely different. You are the same person and I can't imagine what that person is like as a father. Like, I think think your kids are really lucky and I'm really proud of you, man.

I love you. Thank you. No, I mean, I get, you know, my sister does it differently. She always looks at me like I'm crazy. The proof is always in the pudding. If my kids were disasters, I take the blame for it. You know what I mean? I just have always done it a little bit differently. I've never changed who I was to become a parent, quote unquote, for my kids. I'm going to be me. Yes. And I'm going to be a great parent. But I'll drink in front of them, I used to smoke cigarettes, smoke cigarettes in front of them. I curse. I'm going to do who I am and I'm not going to hide anything from you. I think that's bad. And I also think it's cool because if your daughter, if she ends up a stripper, you're fine with it. She ends up on

the pole. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Oh, no. Sorry. No, I mean, as long as Walker's is throwing ones, I think we'll be okay. No, I think we'll be okay. No, I think we're way is the best way because you're being I hate what people talk like this. But when you're being authentic to you, I think only good things can happen. Kids, when you're being fake and phony and...

Yes. But you operate seemingly the same way. When I talk to you and your kids in the car, even with his friends, you're singing, you're doing weird shit. You and I are not dissimilar in our insanity. I'm realizing my older years, I have major anxiety. Like, I'm able to put a name to it.

And it's like, I'm amazed that I'm functioning. Like, when I think of all the things that my behavior and my feelings all throughout the day, it's like a litany. It's like, yeah, it's crazy. Well, give me an example, because, you know, like, again, you know me. We've talked about this forever. I mean, in my 20s, actually, speaking of strip clubs, you know, I was literally going into crazy girls when I had my first panic attack.

I mean, I'm not sure there's a correlation there. I think there probably is, too. But I was, my friend John was walking ahead of me, and I was like, it was almost like I had a heart attack, and I went down to a knee. And I was like, ah, I thought I was going to die in front of crazy girls. And the bouncer was like, like, yo, bro, like, you okay? And I'm like, I don't know. Like, ah, and I can't breathe.

And then I sort of got my shit together, went in. And I was like, John, dude, I don't know what happened? If I had like a mini heart attack? And I was like, I need a vodka. And I had a, remember, I had a vodka tonic. I remember and sitting at the stage where these girls are dancing. And I'm just wondering if I'm going to make it or not. I love you

Oh that's hilarious And then boom That started off my shit I've been on I'm a lexapro And you know Just trying to get Get through my anxiety

Yeah That strip club experience I had the exact opposite effect for me I went in I was like Oh This is home

Right Like I don't need lexapro I just need Lexi, who's a prod. Yeah, anyway. But for real, though, like, how does your anxiety manifest itself? And is it stronger in certain situations? Yes, it's stronger in certain situations.

But if I'm not on the stuff that I'm on, like right now, I have microdose mushrooms. And that does a lot. That does a lot. when I'm not on that everything is a little bit worse but just even when I am on it there's just a constant stream of like

shit going through my head what give me like what does that river look like like who am I my good dad am I going to work ever

again you know no it's little little things it's little tiny things like if I As I'm doing the dish it, you know, I'll be getting, okay, okay. So in the mornings, I'll wake up and immediately I'm prepared because Walker has to wake up. I need to let the two dogs out. I just started making my bed because all these Instagram posts say if you make your bed, your life is going to be better. that it makes um walker extra eggs because he's trying to gain weight all of these things

it's like there are a hundred things that hit my head before i do them and they are regarding those things so as i'm making the bed i can see the corners that are um frayed you know the sheet is coming up off the mattress um i hate the pillows that I have, and I have, like, major emotional reactions to, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. What's going on with my life? Fuck.

I need, you know what I mean? Yeah. Before you. Ah, I wish, you know what I'm saying? And then, bed. Then, as I'm walking to the kitchen, you know, I'll walk by the, it's fucking tiring. I'm high, I'm high functioning. I try not to, to use it as a crest, but.

I give myself, I give myself credit, you know what I mean? When I'm talking to somebody, I'm taking in every facial movement. They smell like, you know, like right now you're, I see the pink on your hat. Like a walkie-talkie. And the way that you're saying, mm-hmm, I know you, but I'm wondering if you're just, literally, if you're just saying, mm-hmm because you think you're supposed to say mm-hmm or if you're really listening you know what I mean mm-hmm no no no by the way this is this is this is who I've known for 20 years you've always been like this this is your nature right right but I didn't know it was

a thing I thought that I thought like everybody was like that I'm not dissimilar to that I just don't it doesn't move into a negative space I just an observant person I think that's why you and I connected so well is we both are observant. We look at the sort of minutiae the specifics and try to sort of break it down. You know, we're just curious. It's a curiosity, but I don't let it hurt me or affect me. You know, I feel like that the bed thing, it sounds like a little like OCD-ish. Yeah, but there's that. I was leaving the, uh, leaving the apartment. No, it was like 45 minutes before she left the apartment. And I was singing, something that happened like getting some peanut butter in jelly 45 minutes later she left the

building was um waiting for the elevator elevator she could still hear me singing you know making peanut she was like what's going on say and i didn't know there was you know she was kind of you know frustrated and you know i blamed it on her then but now i realized it's uh it's i got i got something i got something how do you quiet that or do you need to quiet that or is it just an acceptance of who you are maybe you're over self-analyzing or it's like oh i was cool being who i was 15 years ago now all of a sudden maybe i'm in my 50s and now i'm like am i still this person is there something wrong with me when in reality it's just your nature yeah yeah it's not now everything has a name and now i'm all

excited because like but um yeah for for all my life i just thought that was just how everybody how everybody was you know just like i remember putting the um child what's the child the kid's seat in the car yeah the car seat i would get hot and sweaty hot every time i had to put walker in that fucking car seat and it wasn't until i got on the whatever drug that was. And I put in the car seat and I sat down and drive. And I was like, oh, wait, I didn't feel all that anxiety.

And I was like, oh, this shit works. Mm-hmm. September always feels like the start of something new, whether it's back to school, new projects, or just a fresh season. It's the perfect time to start dreaming about your next adventure. I love that feeling of possibility, thinking about where to go next, what kind of place will stay in, and how to make it feel like home.

I had this overwhelming sensation that I had to call her right then, and I just hit call. I said, you know, hey, I'm Jacob Schick, I'm the CEO of One Tribe Foundation, and I just

want to call on and let her know there's a lot of people battling some of the very same things you're battling, and there is help out there. The Good Stuff podcast, season two, takes a deep look into One Tribe Foundation, a non-profit fighting suicide in the veteran community.

I ended up having amputation below the knee of my right leg and the traumatic brain injury because I landed on my head. Welcome to Season 2 of the Good Stuff podcast on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Talk about the microdosing for a second because it's something I've wanted to experiment with. And, you know, is it in capsule form?

Do you take it in the morning? Do you just take one? And what's the feeling? Obviously, you're not tripping. You're not in any sort of visual state. Okay. So I'm awful with them. I don't take everything every day.

Like, I'm awful with just schedules and shit. So when I do take it, I've taken it in different forms, right? So just most recently I've had this really great tea and I fill up a thermos and I sip it all throughout the day. And then eat joined with my pre-workout, like I am just feeling amazing, amazing. Nothing can be down. So that's that. Then there are capsules. and the capsules

level me out they give me so if I have my if I have a bit of anxiety I can logically get through it whereas if I didn't I could spin out

like if somebody cut me off instead of going crazy an awful example but instead of going crazy and be you know do what everybody else does, I can see the logic of

the other person. You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying? It's really crazy because it really helped when I was in a relationship because when I was taking the capsules, I could see the other person's side so clearly.

And it really helped inform you know, my behavior. It's something's going on with they're like magical. You know what I mean? Yeah. It's really hard to explain, but it's like they can find out what your issues are, and they just massage them, you know? So I'm on board, 100%.

And does your anxiety manifest into physical, or is it just your brain starts to swirl? Or do you get short of breath? Do you feel like you got to throw up or anything like that? It's all mental, but sometimes it'll be so. in my head that I can feel the pressure and it can be on me reacting to something as simple as having to meet a bunch of parents

at one of Walker's basketball games. And the thing that scares me, not scares me, the thing that I feel isn't fair is, logically I know I can tell myself, you know, I'm Tate Diggs or, you know, none of these people are judging me. There's no reason I need to be. nervous. Like, I can tell myself all that, but it doesn't, it doesn't help the feeling. I still have the feeling. And, um, on a really bad day, you know, I'm an actor so I can pretend like it's not happening. But my head will, the pressure in my head will be so intense. Um, and not, and that, you know, that's not cool. What about when you're working? When I'm working, not so, not so much. I think there's something, I think it has something to do with me,

with that being my passion and loving it there and being comfortable. Yeah, I'm comfortable there. That's, that's, I'm the man at work. Yeah. Yeah. But the times where it has happened at work, it's like, I'll make a joke and then somebody won't laugh the way I expected. And then in my head, I'd be like, oh, my God, did I offend them?

that I and then for the whole day I'd be like should I go back and apologize? No, should I write him an email should I text him? And then a lot of times I'll go and say listen, this is weird. I said this thing and I don't know if it offended you but I just wanted to apologize. They didn't even you know what I mean? Yeah.

Notice it and for the whole day I was obsessing over it. Yeah. Eating myself up. Oh, oh okay. The Walker has a I'm very chatty right now. That's good. I'm on a little bit of mushrooms right now, just so you know.

Perfect. So Walk has an amazing basketball coach and a strength trainer, right? So the other day, I just wanted to text them a thank you, like, because they're just, they have his back. James, James and RJ. So I sent them a text, yo, fellas, I'm really, I'm really grateful for, you know, the time and effort that you put into Walker, he's turning into a great young man. And then I made some joke that, you know, and you two, Edina, his mother. Right.

But then I was like, but Adina's a little bit different because she's not getting paid. Dina is not getting paid. Ha, ha, ha. Right. Right. And Adina, that's off to the text. So many ways you can interpret it. Awful.

Awful. So Edina replied, thanks, Tay. James didn't reply, Argy didn't reply. And in my head, I was like, oh, man, they are chipping out because I said, you know, they're acting that way because we pay them. And I know for a fact that, you know, they really love Walker. Oh, how am I going to, okay, should I just let it? And then it goes to the next level. You know what I mean?

It doesn't, I don't talk myself out of the original. So you talk yourself deeper into the hole. Yeah. I'm like, okay, well, how am I going to resolve this? Do I, oh, shit. Next time I see James, I'm just going to act like what happened. Do I walk right up and be like, hey, man, I'm sorry. Do I send him a text?

So I took two days, you know, stude over that. And then I texted it, Dina. Do you think the guys are offended? I don't know what you're talking about, but I think they're fine. So then I just texted them. Listen. And I hope you guys didn't get offended when I said that, you know, Edina's not getting paid.

I love you guys. And they said, I didn't even notice. I didn't even know. No. But then I was like, maybe are they lying? Right. Lying. Damn, dude.

Yeah. That's a difficult head to live in. I mean, it's just constant analysis. Yes, it's that. And it's tiring sometimes. I think I'm more aware of it now in my older age. I don't think I was as aware when I was younger. Let me ask you a question, though.

Where is that space in your life where that goes away? Is it at the gym? Where is it? Like, for me, when I go on my boat and I fish, and it's just me and the ocean, whoever I'm with, I don't think about anything. I'm just present. Well, for me, it's when I'm on one of my five private jets or...

Oh, yeah, yeah. forgot about those your fucking boat a boat can mean many things it can have oars it can have engines you know what I mean like no but I'm going to get one because there's something very spiritual and soothing

of the water I realize that I'm one of those people I get that um work yeah you like work when I'm when I'm working and I'm kind of distracted you know when I'm or you know what I mean

I have to keep my mind active, but if I'm, you know, sitting in the car or, yeah, whenever I'm, I'm kind of idle, I really have to force myself to just push through. And I've given myself little, you know, tricks, little distractions, meditations, and whatnot. And it's been helping. There's a vulnerability. Vulnerability is like kind of hot right now. You know what I mean? I think, you know. You must love me then.

Well, typically, you know, men and vulnerability, those two words sort of equaled weakness. And now I think it's the opposite. I think there's a strength in sort of being vulnerable. Not only that, but when there's people in your position who have a reach or even in mind, when you talk about candidly how you're feeling, what you're going through and your anxiety and what's going on in your brain,

it can sort of make a lot of people not feel alone. Even though I'm very aware of, you know, the amount of anxiety I have and whatnot, on the flip side, I love being older because I don't care about a lot. So, you know, when I was younger, I was very, very consumed with, you know, how black people saw me because I was with it. you know, I had a white wife and, you know, or the way I spoke and the way I dressed. I just wanted people to know that I was not a sellout. So much time, hoping that these people knew who I really was.

But it's such a relief to not care. And it's freeing and that took up a lot of space in my life. And when it comes to, you know, speaking about mental health and stuff, there's not even a second of pause, which is great. I mean, the mushrooms are helping a bit because I came in really, really hot. But those are like, after this, I will look back on this interview and be proud of myself because there was a day when everything would be planned. And I'd make, you know, split-second decisions.

on what about what to say but there'd be some time okay how do i say this what is he going to think okay you know what i'm saying and that a lot and it feels so good to just be able to say what i feel and not care um that's one of the great things about getting older yeah no i know and you know your instagram shows that you don't care because you Oh, yes, that's too, yes, that's too. Although, like a couple of weeks ago, you hit me up and you're like, is this funny? Like, is this funny? Because you were a little insecure about it.

Yeah, yeah, because, you know, I like to stay away from, I like to be around things that make me feel good. That means politics. There's a whole bunch of stuff that I kind of remove myself from. Yeah. Because I end up caring it with me for the entire day. Um, so I don't know what's, you know, what's taboo and what isn't, you know, him, her, there's, whatever. Yeah. Um, and I, you know, sometimes I can have a really dark and interesting sense of humor.

I think I'm funny. So every once in a while, like, I don't need to check in and be like, is this, is this cool? No, I know. You don't want to, you don't want to put, you don't want to put something out there that you are even, even a scosh concern, whether it's funny or not, like. I'll never post anything that I don't believe is really funny. Even if there's a moment where I'm like, wait a minute, I won't do it. I won't even think twice. I'm like, it's gone.

The weird thing about that is because I've done that, but it was contenting upon my mood at the time. And that I hate because once that mood passes, then it's like, oh, that's really not as funny as I thought. But when I did it, I thought it was hilarious. That's part of it.

Hey, sis, what if I could promise you you never had to listen to a condescending finance, bro, tell you how to manage your money again. Welcome to Brown Ambition. This is the hard part when you pay down those credit cards. If you haven't gotten to the bottom of why you were racking up credit or turning to credit cards, you may just recreate the same problem a year from now. When you do feel like you are bleeding from these high interest, rates. I would start shopping for a debt consolidation loan, starting with your local credit union, shopping around online, looking for some online lenders because they tend to have fewer fees and

be more affordable. Listen, I am not here to judge. It is so expensive in these streets. I 100% can see how in just a few months you can have this much credit card debt when it weighs on you. It's really easy to just like stick your head in the sand. It's nice and dark in the sand. Even if it's scary, it's not going to go away just because you're avoiding it. And in fact, it may get even worse. For more judgment-free money advice, listen to Brown Ambition on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. How is it raising a dude as a single parent, as a single dad?

You know, I mean, you know no different, right? Because this is just what you've been doing. But are there pros to it? Are there cons to it? Are there things that you, you know, wish you had for him that you couldn't give him? I'll be honest. I feel like I'm getting away with so much. I feel like I feel like I'm not doing it the way it's supposed to be done.

I feel like I'm cheating. I got lucky. Like, Adi Walker's mother is amazing. So I'm not raised. I don't consider myself like a single dad. It's cool to say, and I get the credit, but she is right there. She does everything. Got it.

Everything. And I can't think about it for too long, or else I'll start to feel guilty, but, you know, it works. Like all the administrative bullshit that, right, yeah. And then the stuff that I need, you'll send me. You know what I mean? Yeah. That's the, that's the major part of it. That's the thing.

He's really doing it. You just play and have a good time and be like the best dad ever. Like, dad is cool. Walker's awesome. I mean, he's cool. We have the same sense of humor. He plays sports. We watch movies.

It's a cakewalk. There have been times, you know, when it's been difficult. But, um, I'm easy on myself. I try to be as honest as I can, and I try to listen, you know what I mean? Mm-hmm. And that seems to be working. He's so easy. Yeah.

So easy. So I really feel like God or the universe, somebody knew me and was like, okay, well, we need to give this guy a break because he, the way he is, he could not, he's, he, he, he's not cut out to be a parent. but my childhood had a stepfather that like beat us and I don't know I don't know how I'm doing it so I feel like someone is guide is guiding me and just you know really help me out yeah you can either repeat those patterns which my dad did because his dad bailed on him and my dad sort of didn't have much of a choice he didn't have therapy he was the 50s he didn't have any sort of self-awareness or was given any sort of guidance as to how to be a dad. It could only sort of not be by example or lack of example. And that's what happened with him and us. Or you can analyze your situation and never want to be that person and rail against it.

You know, and so that's what I did. So, you know, I would, you can give credit to the universe or God or whatever the hell you believe in, but you also have to give credit to yourself. You know what I'm saying? Like, you're the one who made the choice. You have free will. even if it's unconscious, you know, even if it's just something that's a part of you thinking, I'm not, this is not the kind of fucking dad that I want to be to my son.

Yeah, okay. I just like to, for me, it's the, yes, I hear you. Where I do make the choices are when I want to lecture him or, you know, just we like to talk, you know what I mean? I like to hear myself talk. I think a lot of what I say is right. But with Walker, I'm constantly monitoring myself and forcing myself to just listen

and not make it about me. And I give myself credit for that because it's hard. It's hard. Because I've been there, I've done that, and I know, but his experience is completely different, and I want him to experience that without being affected by my past and my history.

I'm saying. Yeah. Really important for kids to go through these experiences themselves and figure, figure shit out. And that is not me. I'm like, I have all the answers, you know. Mm-hmm. And I do with other people still, but with Walker, you know, as you said, it's a choice.

Yeah. Yeah. We think we have all the answers. My thing is with Wilder and the kids, it's like, I'm always like, do you guys? Do you guys fucking get how cool I was? I mean, do you not understand that? Like, you're looking at me like I'm an old man. And yeah, I'm 48.

I'm looking older. Okay, but I was the shit. I was way cooler than you guys were. And they're like, Dad, you're not cool. You are not cool. You don't get it. I'm like, I get it. I want to tell them that because I knew you.

I think that about myself. Yeah, I'm like, I know what the fuck I'm talking about. And they're like, you don't get it. I'm like, well, you've got to listen to me. You've got to listen to me. You need to trust me. And they're like, whatever, Dad, you're stupid. Yeah, it's humbling.

Yeah, Walker teaches me every single day. Does he? Oh, yes. Oh, yes. That's great. Yeah. You know, I mean. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Somebody's looking down on me and just clicking me, up because I got a bunch of freebies and I'm very aware of it and you know you could easily go down a road of like you know guilt and shame and I should be doing more and you know compare comparing yourself to other parents that that that's the worst thing yeah yeah I just it's much easier than not you know I mean mm-hmm like going the opposite direction and well that that That's how I am not as a parent. Like, honestly, as a parent, I like the way that I do it. You know what I mean?

Yeah. But the right way, you know what I mean? Yeah. Feels good to me. It feels good to me. And I don't care if it's the right way or the right. I don't believe there is a right way and a wrong way. I don't think that there is.

I mean, I think there's wrong ways because when you're fucking up your children. Yes. By the way, I've said this a million times. It's not about if you fuck a. up your children. It's about to what degree? It's going to happen. You're fucking them up one way or another. You know what I mean? Little things. Yeah. I think it's supposed to happen. I really believe that. Yeah. That builds resilience. It builds character. You know, it's them individuating saying, oh, dad's telling me this, but he doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about. And then they

either succeed or fail and say dad was right or dad was wrong. You know what I mean? Like, yep. And it's about giving them that freedom, too. The other thing is we are just living in this time where we are coddling the shit out of our kids, not letting them do things, not letting them individuate and get into trouble or get into a bad situation where they've got to get themselves out of because we're so fear-based given technology and Instagram and TikTok and the news.

Everything we click on is fear-based or sex-based. And so now there's this just instilled so much fear where it's like, no, let them fuck. and go. Let them walk around and walk into Westwood and walk over here and, you know, go because they

need it. And it's Yeah, they, Walker didn't know how to, um, I want to say microwave, but it was even, it was even more simple

than that. A comb. He didn't know there was a small comb, really thin tooth. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, what it was. Do you? No, dude, I just saw this clip of this younger generation being shown a VHS tape. And they're like, what is this? And they're like, I don't know.

Literally didn't know what the fuck it was. We're getting into that time now where It's great Walker loves to hear the stories of your Is that this great? Yeah, like yesterior Some of the time that you rode your sleds down And the corner store and got

Dumbed for five cents down You like put a pipe in You're like, sit down, well The year was 1980 We went through a stage where he was like, Dad, out of nowhere. This is when he was like eight or nine. Out of nowhere, we'd be in silence. And he'd say, Dad, did your step father really hit you?

And I'd be like, yep. He took this belt. And he can't fathom that. Yeah. Like he comes from a world where, you know, he's in a world where it does. And I love that. I love that because in my world, if you didn't get spanked, then we made fun of you. And it wasn't, we got beat.

You know what I mean? Yeah. Oh, my God. Mine is the opposite. My kids are like, Dad, tell me about that story. You're on that 300-foot yacht in Mallorca with Ron Meyer and Michael Ovitz. Walker, you know, takes him on all that stuff and he's so over it. Except there was this one, there was one time when he was younger, we were in first class.

And he's sitting on the seat watching all the people go by. And he goes, dad, where are they going? Second class? Full voice. Oh, my God. Second class. Let me ask you this. So some people would say, sometimes I wonder if Walker is too soft.

You know, he's a basketball player. And, you know, really little things can kind of unnerve him. And there are times when I want to say, you're going to have to toughen up because the world out there is tough. But then there's another side of me, like, spoiling. Like, he's very aware. He doesn't want to be spoiled. I like to buy himself. Yeah, I get that.

Yeah, me too. I mean, and for me, I'm at a point in my career where I can go somewhere, not look at the price, and get it. And then that, obviously, that still makes me feel good. So I extend that to Walker. And, you know, sometimes people will make fun of me and say, you know, you better watch yourself. But I want to know your thoughts. I believe that if it's coming from a good place and you're teaching your child, you know, how to be. a responsible human being

in like through example I don't have to worry about spoiling him like he so far he he has nice things but he gets that not everybody has them and it doesn't affect his behavior then he's not spoiled I it's funny

you even ask me this question because I've talked about this before not on the podcast but just in general I don't believe the definition of spoiled is getting a lot of things. It's about the context, understanding like you were saying, like, I'm going to buy you cool shit because I fucking love you.

And as long as you don't expect that, as long as this isn't sort of something that you think is the norm, and I'm always going to do this, and when you don't get it, you're going to throw some sort of a bullshit fit. Right. You know, I mean,

then you're not spoiling your kids. You are giving, You're giving them stuff, gifts that you want to give them, and they understand not to take it for granted. And this isn't necessarily the real world, you know, but I love you. And we're fortunate. Yeah, we're fortunate. And this is that, you know, for sure.

But at the same time, now that my kids are getting older, you know, they have to work for their stuff. You know, Wilder had a job, you know, last year. He was working in retail. and I got them all there. I got them, my boys' their own credit cards to build credit at a young age. You know what I mean? So they both have their credit cards and they have a limit.

And it's not a high limit at all per month. And that is their card. Huh? Good for you. Yeah. So that is their card to buy the things that they want to buy the minute that they get through that and there's no longer any money in it, you're dead. Don't come ask me for fucking.

money, learn to budget, you know, they have their apps, they know how to look at the apps and see what they're spending. Obviously, like school lunches I'll pay for and, you know, stuff like that, but my kids love to order fucking postmates where I'm cooking. I've got food in the fridge. I'm like, that's on your thing. You can order postmates, but that goes to your budget. I'm not paying for that shit, you know. Let me ask you this. Who, whose idea was that with the credit? A mine, you know, mine. Because I, that, that would not have, like, that's a little bit off. Like, I would not have thought of that.

I need someone else to tell me things like that. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. I mean, for me, it was just about responsibility. I'm tired of spending money on all of your bullshit. So here you go. You're going to have a budget and that's it. And, again, you can start building their credit at the age of fucking 13, which is good, which is good.

Yeah, and Edina did it with Walker. You know, you'll come in the house with this new stuff or new ideas or new ways of doing things. And I'd be like, oh, should I have thought of that? Oh, all right. Well, Tina's guy, so. Yes. Yeah, but how much, I mean, you give him everything, dude. You know what I mean?

You are his male figure in his life. Holy shit. I give him lots of Jordans, sneakers. Yeah. No, yeah. we have we have really great talks we have really great talks and he's very insightful and and uh and that that part is fun yeah really really great discussions do you think you'll ever get married again uh someone maybe maybe is that something you're open to 100 percent 100 percent and i'm also open

to having another child yeah i think with the right person that could be really fun but it also feels really great to not, I know, maybe not, and I'm cool with them. Yeah. September always feels like the start of something new, whether it's back to school, new projects, or just a fresh season. It's the perfect time to start dreaming about your next adventure. I love that feeling of possibility, thinking about where to go next, what kind of place will stay in and how to make it feel like home. I'm already imagining the kind of Airbnb that would make the trip unforgettable, somewhere with charm character and a little local flavor. If you're planning to be away this September, why not consider hosting your home on Airbnb while you're gone?

Your home could be the highlight of someone else's trip, a cozy place to land, a space that helps them feel like a local. And with Airbnb's co-host feature, you can hire a local co-host to help with everything from managing bookings to making sure your home is guest ready. Find a co-host at Airbnb.ca slash host.

I don't have anybody to answer to, arguments, you know what I mean, the closest, yeah. 50 dating, finding love, there's a lot of baggage accepting your kids, accepting the situation that she might be in that you're in.

You know, you want to grow old with someone. You want to have that companionship. I don't know. Maybe I'm trying not... You're going to die alone? Well, man. I won't die alone. Like, I'll strip or somebody. I'll have somebody. You know what?

She's really great. But while I was playing this character, it made me realize, it made me remember the good parts of being in a relationship. Acting, and she's wonderful. So I went through a stage where I was like, oh, I miss that. I miss going grocery shopping, going to the movies and walking the... And then, actually, if I'm being honest, like, I was trying to, I was pursuing this girl, she ghosted me on text, and then I got really negative. And then all of a sudden I was like, oh, how great would it be to go on a trip and invite seven beautiful women with, you know, two.

And I was like, that's not, that's cool. There's, there's that side as well. Yeah. of course or just you know driving with walker and just just us yeah so i go through different stages and i'm just trying to be easy on myself exactly you know i mean because i grew up the opposite i grew up everything is supposed to be a specific way and i tried that and it didn't work out but what i've always loved about you too is admittedly we by the way you know we've told the story before but you know we met on a movie a million years ago
