Speaker 1: doing our part. Riveting guest my daughter Delaney for the
Speaker 1: first time on the show in many, many many years,
Speaker 1: home from college. Whether she likes it or not, I
Speaker 1: think I got her mic working. Does it work now? Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And I'd say riveting is a strong word. Okay, there
Speaker 1: you go. That's better. Got it fixed in the nickd
Speaker 1: time fifteen minutes late. So we have questions from listeners,
Speaker 1: which was a terrible idea. So the idea was what
Speaker 1: questions do people have for your daughter? Yes? And and
Speaker 1: then ones you rejected? Were they a lot about like you?
Speaker 1: Was that it? There was one that said is he
Speaker 1: grumpy at home? To except it wasn't that charitable, right,
Speaker 1: that's actually not that bad a question. But what was
Speaker 1: my question? Okay, that's one of the questions I'm answering. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, go ahead. What's what's the first one? Um?
Speaker 1: So the first one, A lot of them were actually
Speaker 1: about our relationship, which I thought was kind of sweet
Speaker 1: actually and unexpected from the internet. Um, well, this is
Speaker 1: our beloved armstrong getty listeners. These are facts. So the
Speaker 1: first one was, what is some advice for us dads
Speaker 1: who want to keep a strong bond between our little
Speaker 1: girls and us? Yeah, and um, you know, of course,
Speaker 1: feel free to chime in on this because I only
Speaker 1: have fift of this. Uh. But a big thing with
Speaker 1: me growing up was I always felt like you and
Speaker 1: Mom really trusted me. So it was one of those
Speaker 1: you trusted me to make dumb decisions, but not dangerous ones. Yeah.
Speaker 1: We end you off with the admonition no felonies, no pregnancies. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you're talking you talk about older like high school
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, junior high high school. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I think when they're little, you can afford
Speaker 1: to be a little more hands on. But especially what
Speaker 1: kept us close was when I kind of reached those
Speaker 1: teenage years. M Yeah, that's good. Yeah, yeah, we could
Speaker 1: talk about that at greater length. Are you a particularly
Speaker 1: trustworthy person though, yes, if you got a kid, I don't.
Speaker 1: But what if you got a kid that's clearly a
Speaker 1: sociopath're gonna like like her dad? Well, that's that's a
Speaker 1: little different. You know. You try to keep them between
Speaker 1: the guardrails. Uh. In other words, keep them alive and
Speaker 1: keep them out of the penitentiary. I think. And you
Speaker 1: just have to let your kids make mistakes. You have
Speaker 1: to teach. I mean, you learned through making dumb decisions.
Speaker 1: I haven't learned through making dumb decisions. I continue to
Speaker 1: make them, but theory you have to learn you're making
Speaker 1: dumb decisions, all right? What else you got? Well? And
Speaker 1: the other thing is, and it ought to be said.
Speaker 1: I have said since my first daughter was born, my
Speaker 1: girls are never going to be desperate for a man
Speaker 1: to love them, because they're gonna know their dad does.
Speaker 1: And so you know, And that's what I keep thinking
Speaker 1: about the Tiger King, that the and there their boys,
Speaker 1: But same sort of situation on the Tiger King. Just
Speaker 1: I can just see their upbringing in them as adults
Speaker 1: and needing, you know, anyway, desperate for approval. I believe
Speaker 1: there is one Tiger King related question isn't there there
Speaker 1: is one tiger King? Okay, I got a question for you.
Speaker 1: Did Carol bash can kill her husband? Yes? No hesitation,
Speaker 1: no hesitation there um. So the tiger king question was
Speaker 1: which farm would you rather live on? At Joe Exotic
Speaker 1: or Docrimentals's. And as a twenty year old young woman,
Speaker 1: I think for anybody who's seen the show, they might
Speaker 1: see some obvious reasons why I wouldn't want to you
Speaker 1: live on doc Antles. Yeah, that'd be a bad choice
Speaker 1: for you. Not an attractive man. Um And the exploit
Speaker 1: of sex cult thing. Do you know that part doesn't
Speaker 1: make me that mad if it was it was Brad Pittle? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: general in general, you'll be quiet Sean. But but you
Speaker 1: you had you wanted to go undercover, right? Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know. I was so upset when they got to
Speaker 1: the part of the documentary where it said the FBI
Speaker 1: rated the rate of the farm no Zoo Zoo, the
Speaker 1: roadside Zoo. And I was so upset because I was
Speaker 1: so willing to be that one informant where they'd send
Speaker 1: me in and I'd get all the dirt, and then
Speaker 1: when I came out I'd have a job with the FBI.
Speaker 1: I was willing to do that, and they just wasted
Speaker 1: their opportunity. Or the shorts that apparently are mandatory if
Speaker 1: you take that job. I'm not going to say that
Speaker 1: in front of my dad. I'll tell you what I've
Speaker 1: seen you in those I'll tell you that's rude. What
Speaker 1: I tell her, Hey, save up, you can buy the
Speaker 1: rest of those shorts. Commentary, you do have to point
Speaker 1: out there are no stumps and Doc Antle's farm where
Speaker 1: there are a number of stumps and the other one
Speaker 1: at least some of those stumps were tiger related. When
Speaker 1: it comes to stumps, I think some is too many. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's true. He's looking at that all right. What else
Speaker 1: you got in the questions? Um, let's see, uh, when
Speaker 1: transitioning from home to school, what is surprised you? And
Speaker 1: what had you wished you known? A lot of the
Speaker 1: questions came from especially dads whose girls were going to college.
Speaker 1: I'd say my biggest takeaway was, um, you don't have
Speaker 1: to be happy right away. I feel like the biggest
Speaker 1: thing that a lot of young college students are impressed
Speaker 1: upon it's college is great. College is fantastic. Like you'll
Speaker 1: really become yourself. But it doesn't feel like that right away. Um,
Speaker 1: you know you're gonna feel lost, especially if you go
Speaker 1: far away. It's going to be a culture shock and
Speaker 1: just you don't have to be happy, but that will come. Well,
Speaker 1: becoming yourself is hard. I mean, that's a hard thing
Speaker 1: for any human to do, right, And just being displaced
Speaker 1: like that, that's really good advice. There's nothing wrong with you.
Speaker 1: If you're a little freaked out for a while. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's all life advice, just not even school related. But
Speaker 1: if happiness is an immediate that's that's an okay thing.
Speaker 1: I live in a college town and I can see
Speaker 1: people trying out their new look, especially the the the
Speaker 1: younger crowd. I'm gonna try I'm gonna try the cowboy look,
Speaker 1: or I'm gonna try the I'm a goth person. Now
Speaker 1: that guy doesn't normally wear bracelets, right exactly, Well, you
Speaker 1: gotta give it a try. We got like ninety seconds.
Speaker 1: What do you have one of your favorites? Yeah, when, um,
Speaker 1: your favorite sentimental gift from your dad. And I think
Speaker 1: this one kind of fed into the first question, But
Speaker 1: there's no physical item I can point to but what
Speaker 1: I can point to is experiences that we had. Um So,
Speaker 1: like I came home from school one day and my
Speaker 1: dad said get ready, uh and drove to a train
Speaker 1: station and spent an entire day in San Francisco. And
Speaker 1: that's what sticks out to me, like those experiences, not
Speaker 1: just Okay, I got him, my little pony. One experience
Speaker 1: is not stuff. That's a good one. Well, and you know,
Speaker 1: one of my all time faves was when you said
Speaker 1: you'd never actually seen it snowing, and so we just
Speaker 1: headed up into the mountains as far as it took
Speaker 1: until we found snowing, and that was That was great.
Speaker 1: That was a good time. Alright, one more quick one, UM,
Speaker 1: tell us about your tattoo. Are you fine with that one?
Speaker 1: Um So, Actually my tattoo is of a pumpkin. It's
Speaker 1: on your face, yes, yes, right under the guy. It's
Speaker 1: a tear droppad like post malone exactly exactly. Um But no,
Speaker 1: the pumpkin came from that was just actually comes from
Speaker 1: my relationship with my dad and it's um you know,
Speaker 1: my siblings are quite a deal deal older than me,
Speaker 1: and when I was growing up, we always went to
Speaker 1: the pumpkin patch together in my nickname for you too,
Speaker 1: which is private. That's private, that's too much, but it's
Speaker 1: pumpkin related anyway. Thanks for being on the show. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was awesome. Definitely the most appealing presence on this
Speaker 1: show in many years. I'm not a
