Hey everybody, welcome to another episode of Father Knows Less.
Starting point is 00:02:27 I'm the Father. I know less. I'm Bobby. However, you're hearing or watching this, it's just me in a room sitting here looking at notes that I've taken over the past. It looks like now about two and a half or three weeks. So this is a different kind of show for me because I literally just keep notes of things that come to mind inside my notes app. And then when I hit about seven, I go, hey, we should record another one. Or if I have a friend that is having a baby or had a baby or knows a baby or is a baby, I'm like, hey, why don't you stop in and let's talk about it?
Starting point is 00:02:58 So that's where we are as of today. I just had two months. Baby's two months old, which is pretty cool, pretty crazy. she got a lot of hair she pretty much got her rhythms down but we're definitely in the stage now of and Caitlin more than me of just being tired
Starting point is 00:03:19 as just a baseline and we don't have a nanny or anything but can you have a nanny for a newborn because like what even would you do is a nanny for a newborn and I know that people probably have them I wish we had two right now to be honest with you but I don't think there would be enough time
Starting point is 00:03:38 because my wife loves being with our baby, like all the time. And so if you had a newborn, especially your first one, it'd be weird. Like it might be nice for like a little bit of rest, but I think it would be weird for us to have a nanny because I don't think that my wife would want time
Starting point is 00:03:56 for the nanny right now. That could change. Hey, you hit me up in six months. I may tell you we have three nannies. I have no idea what's going on. But, yeah, newborn and a nanny, Annie kind of feels not wrong or anything, but I don't know where we would use it. I guess if, I don't know, I was just reading this Nick Cannon story about him and he has 12 kids, right? And so they just
Starting point is 00:04:22 announced this documentary series about him and he has 12 kids with six different moms. Now, he's got to have a lot of nannies, I would assume. Also, like I feel like at times I don't do. a great job of being there with my wife all the time. And that's just because of my job. Right. So I'll go on in the morning. I'll wake up at 340, anywhere from 3.45 to 415 normally. Sometimes a little earlier, if I'm not sleeping at all, definitely sometimes a little later. If I'm going to work from home, which maybe I do about once a week, it's much easier to work from home because I can just walk 100 feet. So that usually gives me about 20 minutes extra to sleep. But that being said, with all the time that I'm at work, driving to and from work, going back to work in the afternoon to do different Bobbycast stuff or sports show stuff, if I do decide to work out, like, I'm there for my wife.
Starting point is 00:05:19 But even if I'm making an absolute effort to get there in between, I still feel like I'm not doing enough to help. And I don't know if it'll ever reach a point where it's like, I feel great about how much I'm able to help. But I don't feel like even with me being there for hours in the day, every day, I'm doing enough to help. How in the world can Nick Cannon who has 12 kids with six different moms be there? Unless they all live right next door to each other. I mean, is that the move? You move them all in six houses right next door to each other. And I'm sure they've got it figured out.
Starting point is 00:05:52 But man, I feel like I'm not there enough with one baby. How the crap does he do it with 12 kids and six parents? that is a lot of postpartum, especially if they've had those babies near each other. So that series is coming out on to Netflix, which is crazy. It says from million dollar meetings to midnight diaper runs.
Starting point is 00:06:15 He ain't doing no diver runs. If you're having a lot of million dollar meetings, you ain't doing a lot of diver runs. Especially if you have six moms and 12 kids. No shame. Do what's good for you. But I wonder if he feels like I feel because I got one kid
Starting point is 00:06:32 and I feel like I'm not there enough. He's got 12. That is wild. So I just saw that coming in. I was just thinking about nannies because it'd be cool to have one, I thought. But then I also thought, I don't know that we would use it all the time or much right now because my wife just loves or it drives her crazy when the baby's not near. And then I sold him to a canon story. And I was like, dude, how many nannies does he have?
Starting point is 00:06:59 He's got to have a ton. So here we are. Let's go with some notes that I have here I did mention that I bought something called the Tiny Traveler Now I have never been paid any money by any baby business Big Baby Money is not coming to this podcast So there's no money from Big Baby coming at all The Tiny Traveler is good
Starting point is 00:07:24 I don't know if it's the best I could look up reviews I guess I literally went to Amazon said baby cameras and it was one that was not the most expensive but it wasn't the cheapest and it had pretty good reviews maybe not the best but not the worst so I bought that one and it's great I don't know what other cameras do it's great it does this thing where at the end whenever you're turning your car off it goes ding ding ding ding ding and then it shows you a picture of another baby that's not your own baby so that freaks me out a little bit every time and the reason it
Starting point is 00:07:59 showed you that picture is to remind you that there's a baby in the back, which is odd. They probably should just let you upload a picture of your own baby, because a lot of times I'm getting out of my SUV, and I got an Asian baby back there. But it reminds me that there's baby back there. But I've never actually left a baby back there in that seat. But it is good. The camera is good. I'm sure they're better.
Starting point is 00:08:23 I'm sure they're worse. But the tiny traveler has been a good addition to both of our cars, because my wife and I both have them in ours now. It doesn't have too much space either on the front windshield, which is something I worried about. Small, it's underneath the rearview, there's a tiny cable that runs through. It's not really in the way, it's not large.
Starting point is 00:08:47 So I give it a solid A-minus. I did see a Jeep this morning as I was driving into work. Because now that I have one of these, I often look in other cars to see if they have any sort of baby monitor, but I was thinking this morning when I was staring inside of a Jeep all creepily, this Jeep had so many ducks on the front dash, there's no way that's safe. Because you turn a curve a little hard, all those ducks into the floorboard, underneath your gas pedal, underneath your brake, now you can't stop.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Now the car is going and you can't stop because you've got a freaking duck underneath your brake pedal. All of a sudden there's a mom with four orphaned children up there that she's just taking in for the day to make sure they can get some food. You can't stop all of a sudden. Boom, you plow into them. all because you got too many ducks on your Jeep. If I were a police officer, I would look for a reason to pull them over. I think that's a ticket.
Starting point is 00:09:38 I think if you have more than 10 ducks on the dash of your Jeep, that's a ticket, because that is extremely unsafe. Now, I was only steering in a Jeep because I was looking for baby monitors, but I made that note, too many ducks in jeeps are unsafe. It's note number one. Next one up.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Something else that I've realized is that when the baby cries, it affects Caitlin and myself wholly differently. When our baby cries, I feel like it physically hurts my wife. Her goal when the baby cries is to figure out why, as fast as possible, hungry, sleepy, physical pain. Who knows, she wants to figure it out,
Starting point is 00:10:24 identify the problem, fix it as fast as she can, and once the baby stops crying, she feels better. And I don't mean for this to sound bad, but when the baby cries, it doesn't bother me that much. So when the baby cries, a little bit of me, he goes, that's adversity, kid. Time to live with it. Now, if the baby's in physical pain, I don't want that to happen.
Starting point is 00:10:46 But if she's sleepy and she's crying and she won't go down, I don't mind taking her at all. If she's just so fussy, I don't mind taking her going to walk with her. She can scream in my ear all day because it doesn't physically hurt me. Now, I love her. and I don't want her to cry, but it really bothers my wife when the baby cries. I don't like it because I don't want something I love
Starting point is 00:11:07 to be going through any sort of struggle, but it really does not affect me in a way that it affects my wife. And I'm sure there's some biological reasons to that, probably because that baby was inside of her body and ripped out of her vagina. I think that's probably a big part of it. It did not come out of my vagina at all. so if the baby is tired hungry we can identify and fix but if she's crying and there's really nothing
Starting point is 00:11:36 we can do except wait out the hard crying i usually take the baby because it doesn't bother me that much i sound like a jerk thing to say i don't want her to cry i love her just doesn't bother me the same as my wife i've noticed that after the last week and a half or so another thing i'd like to bring up shout out to everybody who's been getting people baby since the dawn of baby giftery because you guys are awesome. The amount of baby gifts that we got either at our door, people finding me, people coming to the house. Also, the art of dropping a baby gift at a front door
Starting point is 00:12:13 and then texting them after, that's a plus. Because with a baby, the schedule is paramount. And the baby might be asleep. the baby might be eating. And if you have to go all of a sudden and try to go to the front door and have a conversation because you're not just going to like
Starting point is 00:12:29 take a hand off from somebody and go, okay, thank you, bye. If you see somebody, you're going to have a little conversation with them. That is very difficult to do if your seven, eight week old baby isn't one of those things, sleeping, eating. There's only like 25 minutes every three hours
Starting point is 00:12:46 that the baby can be social with someone. So big shout out to people that drop baby gifts off at the front door and text you after because then there is no obligatory, hey, what's up? Good to see you. While in your gut, you're going, oh, she's going to start crying anytime or, oh, I got to feed her. She should have been put down for a nap 10 minutes ago. Big shout out to you guys. Secondly, to everybody who just gets a baby
Starting point is 00:13:11 gifts for people is awesome. I was never in the culture. I've never had a baby. I don't think I've seen more than five babies in her life until my own. So I don't think I've ever gotten anybody a baby gift. Maybe ever. And I'm a gift guy. I like getting people gifts. I just never thought about getting someone a baby gift. One, I didn't know what to get them. Two, I don't even know what two is. I just didn't know what to get them. So I didn't even know that it was like, it's not expected. But I didn't know that was part of like gift giving culture to someone who has a baby, get them something. So we've had so many people do so many nice things And big shout out to all of them
Starting point is 00:13:58 What I've started doing now And I've had three friends that have had babies Since we've had one Which is kind of wild Instead of getting them something That I know they're probably not going to use It's going to end up being a bit of clutter I've been sending
Starting point is 00:14:15 $200 gift cards to Uber Eats Because Much like You take food over to somebody's house if somebody dies, people take food over to people's houses if they have a baby because it's not like you can go and you don't have time to cook. But with the Uber Eats card, you don't have to see me. This is basically me going, hey, I got you some food. I don't want to drop it off on the porch because I don't want it to go bad. Also, I don't cook. And my wife's not really
Starting point is 00:14:43 cooking that much right now because she's had a baby. But this is me going, I'm going to take care of a couple meals for you. Although here's the thing about Uber Eats now, for the last year and a half or so, you can order food, and you can pay the two extra dollars or so, and it's priority, it gets their little faster. Well, now they have like two lightning bolts, super priority, $7, which is crazy, but I just don't want my food in the back seat
Starting point is 00:15:09 while somebody else is super prioriting, and I'm sitting back there, my food getting warm or cold, depending on what it is. So of course I'm hitting super priority. I got a smoothie for $3, $1, $15 later, I got a smoothie. But I'm now sending, Uber Eats gift cards to folks because people got to eat. People don't want to have to see you right when they have a baby because it's not they don't like you. It's just they got other things to worry about.
Starting point is 00:15:33 And that's a baby gift. I feel like that's a good baby gift. And so that's my new move. And the great thing about Uber Eats is if you have an Uber account, obviously you can use it. You can do Dooredash too if that's what they use. I'm sure there are a few of those services. But if you want to send a gift card on Uber Eats and you use it as much as I do, you hit the three dots, And it's like, give someone a gift. How much? You write all the stuff down. And then you buy it before you can even say where it goes.
Starting point is 00:16:00 So the first time I bought it, I was like, I didn't even get to say where it goes. I'm going to purchase it. Fear not, click the how much it is, write your little message, then buy it. Then it'll say, hey, do you want to text this? I always text it. Then you can do it. So I have found that to be not just a kind gesture, but a very practical gift for someone. who really needs practicality because they've just had a baby.
Starting point is 00:16:28 There's no room for anything else. So a big shout out to everybody who's gotten us gifts. Pride Month Toronto. Pride is an opportunity for you to create your own space, to celebrate your existence. IHeartRadio is proud to be an official sponsor of Pride Toronto Festival and we won't stop. Celebrate Pride.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Turn up the love and listen to IHeart Pride Canada. Your 24-7 radio stream and the only playlist you need for your Toronto Pride Celebrations. Pride is so great because it gives a whole bunch of people this visibility that they've never had before. We have a ton to celebrate Toronto. Happy Pride! Iheart Radio. In the moment, it felt like it was going on forever. I didn't think I was going to live.
Starting point is 00:17:13 I was terrified. There was no anything inside those eyes. They turned black. It scared the hell out of me. That was your first murder case? Yes, sir. Fear to say this was the biggest case of your career? Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:17:31 Rape a murder for a child. Just as bad as it gets. I would think so. Evil, wake up. I'm the one that saw the murder take place by Crevette and DePippo. Anthony DePippo showed no signs of remorse, appearing unfazed after being sentenced to the maximum. I said I'm not guilty.

We did, because the baby is old enough now to wear the gifts that Tim McGraw got us, the McGrath. It's not Tim, it's Tim and Faith. I don't even know if I mentioned them specifically in our baby gift giving segment. You can go back on the YouTube page and look at that, the whole thing about baby gifts.
Starting point is 00:19:56 But the McGraws were really nice, and they got us this expensive box of baby onesies. And on these baby onesies, there are seven of them, and every one of them, has a different day of the week on it. And they're also really nice because the first thing I did is Google how much they cost. I'm not going to lie. If I go by somebody's house, I look up their Zillow.
Starting point is 00:20:17 I see how much that cost. When I got that gift from the McGraths, I googled it up. How much of this cost is expensive? And it was a little big for the baby at the time, which is the right move because the baby's going to grow into it. But she's starting to rock those. And so that's pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Although the days of the week are written in another language, I believe in French. I don't think she's matching the date. at all. But we're rocking on and I was thinking, should I send a thank you card? Now, I've never been someone that was great at sending thank you cards or handwritten notes. And I think my excuse has always been to have bad handwriting. I think I'm just kind of lazy when it comes to that. But man, when I get one from someone, I feel like, man, that is so thoughtful. I should do more of this. Smash cut, two and a half hours later. I've forgotten about it completely and I don't do
Starting point is 00:21:08 it or think about it again until I get another one from somebody. And then I'm like, dang, I should do this. Same pattern over and over and over again. But, and I want to Google this because I've never looked it up. I just made a note. Like, are you supposed to send thank you cards as a standard for baby gifts? Let's take a look here. Because for wedding gifts you are, when my wife and I got married, we sent thank you cards to everybody that sent us a gift for our wedding marriage. and we split those up too, half and half. And mostly I sent thank you cards to people on my side and she sent them to her side, but we signed both of them, right?
Starting point is 00:21:46 So she'd write it, sign her name, and then I'd toss my name on there. And the other one, I'd write it, I'd sign my name, then she'd go, this is terrible, she'd write a note on that one as well, then she'd sign her name. Is it standard to send a thank you card for a baby gift? It is standard etiquette It's a handwritten thank you card for a baby gift
Starting point is 00:22:10 While not always strictly necessary in modern times Let's be honest Right now is as modern as it's ever been in the history of time It is considered polite to acknowledge gifts From baby showers This is not baby shower gifts by the way, nope This is gifts after we had the baby The baby shower gifts and the cards are strictly on my wife
Starting point is 00:22:31 Right? I didn't It wasn't my shower I guess I wouldn't that sound like a jerk I didn't spend much time at the shower I showed up at the end and not only that we had a thing
Starting point is 00:22:44 okay I'm unpacking all this in my mind because I didn't like how I sounded there we didn't take gifts as in regular gifts all we asked for gifts and my wife's baby shower were children's books
Starting point is 00:22:58 with a note in it so we have an entire basically children's book library up in the baby's room. Now, do I write a note back for a book with a note in it? I feel like that's note on note crime. I don't need to hit them with a note. They just wrote me a note and gave me a gift. I do think, though, my wife would have made us write thank you cards had we accepted gifts from folks like big gifts, like a blender. Do you get a blender for somebody for a baby? If we would have, we would have sent you a thank you card. While not always necessary
Starting point is 00:23:31 in modern times, it is considered polite to acknowledge a gift from baby showers are directly by friends family to show gratitude and confirm receipt. It says, preferably within two to three weeks of the shower or two months after the birth for later gifts. That's on me because I have had zero organization when it comes to whose goddess gifts. I've texted people back. I know that doesn't count as a thank you card. Man, that kind of sucks on me, huh? Well, you want to know what we did? For who?
Starting point is 00:24:10 Just whenever we had a baby. For us? For when we had our baby and we got gifts. Oh, I thought you said what you did for me. I was better put on the spot. Oh, I'm so sorry. Oh, I'm so sorry. Oh, I'm so sorry.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Just take a picture of your daughter wearing the onesie and send it to Tim. Say, thank you so much for this. That's like a good in-between way. Huh. Yeah, I think I'm going to pass on that. But thank you to everybody who got us. This is universal. If you're watching this and you got me a baby gift, thank you.
Starting point is 00:24:40 And I'll move my mouth. And if you want to edit your name into this, you can. Here we go. Hey, it's Bobby here. Thank you, Tapp, for sending that gift. Man, you guys are great. That's good. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:55 So we didn't send any thank you cards back. My wife's might. I don't know. I haven't, and I feel like a jerk. We had a little minor incident. This is one of my last notes here. Again, I'm taking no money. money from big baby organizations, but I'm going to shout out another company. The name of that
Starting point is 00:25:14 company is, I tell what? No. This is how you know. I don't know. What's the name of it? It's the name of a company that it's like a camera that looks into the crib, but she also wears this thing on her ankle that monitors her vitals when she sleeps. The Allot. Allet. It's the greatest thing. That's it. You guys know the allot? Okay. Now we're talking. talking. Big shout out to the Alley company because you make good stuff. We have this monitor that's a big monitor. We also have little monitors like the app on our phone, but we have like a big monitor that sits there. So when the baby's asleep in her room, we can watch and see if she's awake. It has like the, that's not infrared, but the night vision so you can tell if the
Starting point is 00:26:06 baby's asleep or not. On the top of it, it tells you the temperature in the room. It also puts a little note up there like baby cried six minutes ago baby uh like if i check on on it and i'm just like looking at like i pulled it up now it would say something like mom was with baby 15 minutes ago it's crazy ai is watching everything that we do that's the bad part the good part is i can tell what's been happening with my baby for the last two hours or so there's a ankle thing i think that's ala too and so we charge it and we put it on her at night and basically if any of her Vitals go crazy. It makes a big alarm sound. We've never had the alarm sound happen until a couple of nights ago. And it goes, rah, rah, my wife jumped out of bed like somebody's breaking in the house.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Turns out, I think the battery was just going dead, or it had come off her ankle to where it wasn't getting close enough to the ankle to be able to read whatever the vitals are. And it was fine, like five minutes later. We were up for like the next three hours, though, because again, it felt like, somebody was breaking into our house. We've had our alarm go off in the middle of the night, and it wasn't someone breaking in the house, but we thought about it. That's kind of what it felt like. It was almost impossible to get back to sleep after that. But big shout out to the outlet. Wait, to allot, because they make a pretty good product too. Now, I've not tried multiple products. I've only tried one baby camera and one outlet, but I feel pretty good about that. So that's where we are today.
Starting point is 00:27:41 We've got a pretty good swing to the baby likes now. I wish I knew the name of it. It moves like a Chucky Cheese character though. Like, I don't think this is an expensive one because it kind of goes, like nothing about it looks like it would be comfortable to be in. But we kind of got it going. We're tired. My wife is way more tired than me.
Starting point is 00:28:05 I do live baseline kind of tired. And I would say more tired, sleepy because I don't get good sleep. But we're at that point now where my wife is just exhausted. and I think if I come home from work and I'm like, hey, I got the baby for a couple hours, all good. She would love the idea of taking a nap, but I still don't think that her nervous system has allowed her to take a daytime nap since the baby was born, which is pretty wild because it's like, hey, you're sleepy, get a little sleep. And I'll take the baby and she'll lay down and close her eyes and can't do it yet. So I'm really rooting for her. It's been really great to see how much
Starting point is 00:28:43 that she loves it and the joy that she has with it. And so that's it. That's the last couple of weeks for me. Man, the Nick Cannon stuff is crazy to me. Like, how do you even spend enough time with the baby? They even know what's your dad. Like for me, our baby's just now two months old. I don't think I'm just like a taller figure with glasses.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Because she spends all the time with the mom and obviously they're doing feeding and all hours of the day. I think I'm just like a dude that shows up. And so at some point, I think they'll start to be that recognition of, oh, yeah, this dude owns me. That I can't wait for. That's going to be cool. I was talking about therapist about that.
Starting point is 00:29:27 I was like, I'm not putting any sort of expectations on a biological connection with me and the baby because I understand that with dads, it's a bit different. You can love it even though there's not like this deep connection with the baby yet with the mom, with Kailen the baby. if Kaelan walks in the room, that baby's like, where is she? With me, I think it's like, here's the guy that has farty noises, try to make me smile. Although she does smile now socially, I think that's what you'd say. Like, it's not just little muscles to make her smile. I can make
Starting point is 00:30:09 specific sounds. And I know usually if she feels pretty good, she's going to smile or laugh, which is pretty cool. That part's pretty cool. I've really been doing a lot of Wu Pig Sui. to her just trying to make that normal. Also the other thing is that like if something is uncomfortable, if like there's like a diaper change or anything that she's not going to like, I call that a mommy.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Anything she does like, I call a daddy. I'm like, oh, this is a daddy. And if there's something that's not so comfortable, like if we go to go to pediatrician, oh, we got to go do a mommy. I'm just trying to make sure she associates daddy with positive. Maybe I shouldn't sacrifice mommy for that,
Starting point is 00:30:45 but it really felt like we're dialing in. on that. So that's what's up. That's it. We got Dylan who's about to have a baby coming up too. Not super soon, but close enough. Any questions? I'm a veteran now, Dylan. So one thing I have been curious about. No, I got all the answers, too. All right, sweet, sweet. I've been doing this for two months. This is like in person. I know at all. Yeah. I'll invoice you after this. Go ahead. So people are always saying, you know, their baby sleeps good or sleeps great at this stage within, you know, first two months or first few months. Realistically, what does that look like? Realistically, how many hours a night is the baby asleep?
Starting point is 00:31:29 I'm glad you asked, because again, I'm an expert in this because I've only ever had one baby ever, and I only know my story, so that makes me an expert in everybody. So I'm glad you asked. We've been very fortunate. Our baby sleeps like eight hours. Oh, geez. Oh, dude, it's awesome. Full night. Full night. I've talked to a lot of friends who have two babies, and mostly what they've said to me for the most part is if you get one that sleeps real well early, usually that second one kind of sucks or the opposite. You get one that's difficult. Yeah. Yeah. So kind of a law of averages thing, we've just been fortunate that she started to knock out three and a half, four hours or so. And the pediatrician was like, hey, at one point, she was like, if she's not waking up, let her sleep.
Starting point is 00:32:12 We had to get to that point. But it's like, if she's no, and then she just sleeps. It's wild. That's fantastic. Right now, we're very fortunate. But, we drugger. Yeah. No. With milk. No, with milk. That's what the outlets for.
Starting point is 00:32:27 Are you excited or is it even in your mind yet? Oh, I'm super pumped. You are? Yeah. I didn't really start getting pumped till third trimester because that's when it felt the real realist. Yep. You're already excited like in a positive way? Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:32:39 I kind of, I think I need to like slow it down for myself a little bit. I don't know. I'm like looking like. You rushing her into labor? Four months ahead. Yeah. You're driving her in? Just in case.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Yeah. Let's see if you're dialing it. I think maybe we could swing it like three weeks early. Just start induced you about three weeks early. Oh, that's cool. You're excited. Is she excited? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:57 Oh, yeah. She's super pumped. Has she been sick? Not once. Not even nauseous. Wow. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:04 It's been great. She's like comfortable. It hasn't been sick. So, yeah, she's been lucky. That last few weeks, and I say this from my wife, I say this from a couple of friends that just had baby or a pregnant right now, that last few weeks is hell. Yeah. that's yeah and the thing that it's probably going to make it worse for us that's like we have a lot of stuff personally going on then like that we have to be at and do like what does she need to be at when she's nine plus months pregnant well we're probably going to be moving oh my god oh no it's going to be a handful you don't want to do that you don't want to do any of that whatever can you not move them there's nothing she's going to lease is up we're due early on
Starting point is 00:33:52 October releases up, end of October, but we want to be in a place in September. If you can do it seven and a half, eight months, good. You're going to do it nine. That's what we're going to try to do. She's not even going to enjoy watching television at night. I mean, there's not even the comfortable things that people like. You don't even enjoy doing that. Yeah, good luck, dude.
Starting point is 00:34:09 Burtle. That's super exciting. Yep. Brandon, any advice for Dylan? Man, just hang on. I don't know. I think everybody's different. And I think you should take everybody's advice with a grand assault because,
Starting point is 00:34:22 it could be very, very different for you. Do you plan on watching it all? What do you mean? I'm not going to watch. Oh, watching, watching it. Like watching the baby? Yeah. No, no.
Starting point is 00:34:34 You know, like watching the miracle of birth? I'll be shoulders up. Yeah. I was shoulders up. Yeah. Don't feel shame in that. You might change your mind while you're there. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:34:45 And if you do, awesome. If you don't, awesome too. Yeah. For me, I felt like I didn't want to do it. And my wife wasn't telling me that I should do it. And one thing is I don't really let society pressure me in much. So I said, I'm going to stay up here. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:00 And I compared it to the dads of the 50s and 60s who were in the freaking lobby. They weren't even where I was. Outside smoking a cigarette. Yeah. Heck, I was in there. Yeah. They had this massive mirror in the delivery room. And they told my wife, didn't me roll it over so you can see.
Starting point is 00:35:14 She's like, no, I'm good. We were all good. We were good. I don't think the nurses wanted to look. Nobody wanted to look. We all turned the lights off and just felt around. Don't feel bad. Oh, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:35:26 And I think my wife is on the same page. Like, we're very much like, we don't need to do all that. Like, I was like, I told her, I was like, I saw it once in health class. Like, I'm good. I was talking to a guy. We went to Austin for IHeart Country and I was talking to a guy in a meet and greet sales meeting with a bunch of clients. And he said, hey, I heard you had a baby. I said, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:45 He said, I delivered my own baby. And I said, are you a doctor? No, are you a nurse? No. Then I thought maybe he was just under there. And like he caught it. Yeah. And I said, oh, I said, yeah, I didn't do that.
Starting point is 00:35:57 But that's really cool. Like, that's, I admire you if you feel like you can go and be a part of your child coming into the world. Said, so how did that work? Did they just tell you was coming? You catch it? He goes, no, I went in. They let me go in. I said, they let you.
Starting point is 00:36:10 He said, yeah. I went in and he like pointed that spot between your wrist and maybe like a, not all the way halfway to the elbow, but like a bit down. He said, I went all the way in and took the shoulder. They said, hey, okay, turn the shoulders. And I turned the shoulders so the baby could come out. No. Yeah, no, that's just a hard, no. No way.
Starting point is 00:36:30 Well, I thought, too, like, how safe is that? Is a doctor watching a game? Yeah. Right. Yeah, yeah, just get in there, man. Also, it could be a female doctor. We had a female doctor, but that joke only works with a game. So, okay, is she watching a game?
Starting point is 00:36:46 There you go. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Softball game, man. Yeah. Well, no, see, that's also sexist. What you just did. So what I did was sexist and then I said, okay, I'm going to admit it and then you flipped it back.
Starting point is 00:36:56 Yeah, I'm going to not. Did you watch, Brandon? I wasn't even allowed in the room. COVID? Yeah, COVID. Oh, yeah. That does suck. Dang.
Starting point is 00:37:05 That really sucks. That's crazy. It was great, yeah. So we got two here that didn't see it and one here that doesn't want to. I think most people do watch though. Most of my friends watched. I do it for just to diversify a little bit. For content?
Starting point is 00:37:19 Yeah, for content. If she doesn't care Because I think if my wife was like I really want you to do it I probably would have That's weird though right If somebody was like I want you to watch this
Starting point is 00:37:33 Like that feels a little strange I'm gonna tell you I would have thought that too Until it was time to have the baby And I think if my wife was like I want you to see it Because I want you to see like the moment Our baby comes in
Starting point is 00:37:42 You know breathing into earth I already got it I would have thought it was weird I thought she was kind of like on like an organic, all natural, emotional, let's join together with Earth for the delivery of our child type thing. No shoes on while we're delivering. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Yeah. Yeah. Let's ground. But that's, yeah, that's it. All right. Well, that's my update. Nothing life changing except all of it has been life changing. And we'll get a guest up here on the next one or two.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Those seem to be a little fun. And I don't say oddly sexist stuff like, I bet the doctor, he's watching a guy. game. Don't like who I am.

Starting point is 00:41:30 Hey everybody. We're going to do a father knows less sort of unboxing of a baby gift. So got this from a friend of mine. I've not looked in it at all. So let's see if we like this. We like it, though. It's very nice. So thank you for the baby gift.
Starting point is 00:41:44 I'm not going to say who it is. This is first. This is an Arkansas razorback. What do you think this is? What's sports he playing here? He's got two gloves on. Who would you guys say that is? Soccer?
Starting point is 00:41:58 Yeah. Is that a goalie? It could be a goalie. That's interesting. Now, he is wearing a foot. No, that might be soccer, huh? Yeah, shorts. Huh.
Starting point is 00:42:11 So it's Arkansas razor bag. For those who are just listening, it's like a little plush stuffed animal with two gloves on. I'm thinking way too much about what sport it is when the whole point was he got the baby something that was Arkansas. Okay, so there's that.
Starting point is 00:42:27 Next up. we got a looks like a little blanket. Oh, a nice little blanket here. I like the material. It's kind of rubbery. Okay. Let's see what else we got here. Okay, we got a little onesie.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Cute little onesie. My recommendation for getting anybody a onesie for their baby is buy it a little big and let them grow into it because we've had people that were so kind, get us onesies for our baby. And I think, because when you go in, at least when we do, they give us this baby book. And inside the book, they keep all the statistics of the baby. So day one, it was like length of the baby, weight of the baby, the percentile,
Starting point is 00:43:14 meaning if they're the top 22 percent, top 90. So right now, our baby's tracking a little longer than most babies. And so we've had people give us probably appropriately timed onesies, but they are way too small because our babies What a baby even be tall? She doesn't stand up. I guess you're long until you can stand up. When do you say that?
Starting point is 00:43:39 I'd say long. Yeah, you don't get tall until you can actually stand. So always go a little tall, a little long on the onesies. Okay, we got a, oh, nice, more Arkansas stuff. My wife drives are crazy. Mostly because a lot of people know what I like, and so we have 97% Arkansas stuff and 3% Oklahoma stuff.
Starting point is 00:44:00 And I'd like to encourage people to keep doing that. Oh, it's a red razor back onesie. We like that. And a black razorback onesie. We like that.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Oh, we like the summer onesies too where the likes can come out. A plus when you're outside. Okay. Nice little basket. We got two books here. We got I love you as big as Arkansas.
Starting point is 00:44:28 I have never seen this book before. Very specific to me. We like that. I love you as big as Arkansas. You're my little natural state heart. Together here with you is always better than apart. You guys have in like kindergarten whenever they'd read a book, they would do this and show the whole room. How about that? There's Razorback Stadium on the front page. I'm sure my wife loves that. Next up. Twinkle Little Star, six bedtime rhymes. So this is this book. And it says, press and sing along.
Starting point is 00:45:08 Okay. Hmm, I'm pushing it. Does I need a battery? Oh, no. I get mad because the book is broken. So Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, I know. I wonder if these are all public domain. Tungle Tinkle Little Star is, yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Okay, so that's number one. Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. Let's see if we know all the Star. songs. Number two, hush little baby. Hush little baby, don't say a word. Good one. Number three, rock a bye baby.
Starting point is 00:45:45 Rock goodbye baby on the tree top. It says I can push this thing. There's an on button. That makes sense. Yeah. Dude, I would have thrown this away when I got home. I would have never looked for an on button. I would have just got home and been like, well, that was nice of them, but this book's broken. Huh, that's cool. All right, rocking by baby.
Starting point is 00:46:12 Let's flip over here. Little Boy Blue. Hey! I don't know how it goes. I just do the Andrew Dice Clay. Little Boy Blue. Do you guys know that song? Public.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Do you think? Little Boy Blue. Not a hit. Yeah, from the 18th century. Yeah, that's B-side. I don't know that one. That's like any song other than Sex and Candy from Marcy Playground. That's what that song is.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Okay. Here's a song called Go to Sleep. Do we think we know this one? Go to sleep, go to sleep. Is that little darling I love... Go to sleep. Little Darling, I love you. This is a pretty cool book now that you turn it on.
Starting point is 00:47:17 That thing comes in at night and then it freak you out. it does feel like what they play before you get murdered that's like in a horror movie okay that thing that's the last one okay that's a good little book how about that you know the bookstore that has this has to be pissed all the time because people are walking by just playing it
Starting point is 00:47:37 maybe they can't figure it out too and they can't turn it on of boxing of oxing of oxing of this is a baby gift it was all from the same person but that's the first time I've done that So thank you.
