He's the last remnants 0:00:09.360 --> 0:00:12.640 of the old Republic, a soul fashion of fairness. He 0:00:12.720 --> 0:00:15.640 treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the 0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:17.640 rich pill poppers in the penthouse. 0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:18.520 Wow. 0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:22.440 It's a clearinghouse of hot takes. Break free for something special. 0:00:22.800 --> 0:00:29.280 The fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now in. 0:00:29.360 --> 0:00:36.800 The air everywhere back in the podcast dojo, as it 0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:41.479 is our Saturday podcast, Big Night, Tonight, Big Afternoon, actually 0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:43.240 not night, Big Afternoon. 0:00:43.320 --> 0:00:45.479 The Malard Meet and greet is today. I hope you 0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:50.080 heard Andy, the comic book guy who is kind enough 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:53.880 to open his store to us this afternoon. All that 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:58.520 information on the Friday podcast, but we're looking forward to 0:00:58.680 --> 0:01:02.400 seeing you. And I'm excited about this podcast because the 0:01:02.600 --> 0:01:07.560 much anticipated return of a man whose life has been 0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:11.399 changed forever. I think we should call this podcast father 0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:19.520 Knows Best, Fatherly Advice. Now from Daddy G Radio, Welcome back, 0:01:20.319 --> 0:01:21.640 Danny G. My man. 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:26.639 Oh yeah, Now, whenever I play the infamous Daddy drop 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:29.280 on the podcast, it has a whole new meaning. 0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:36.640 Daddy Congratulations man, I'm very excited for you and your 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:37.360 lovely wife. 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:37.560 There. 0:01:37.640 --> 0:01:40.600 You guys, everything seems to be going pretty well now, right, 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:43.520 You got a little bit of a routine at this point. 0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:47.720 It's been a few days of things kind of settling 0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:52.240 down into a routine as far as the baby, eating, pooping, 0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:56.360 diaper change, napping for just a little bit, and then 0:01:56.400 --> 0:01:58.840 waking up and putting it all on repeat. 0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:03.440 Yeah, it's quite amazing, the whole thing of life, because 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.880 you start out needing that, and then when you're about 0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:07.920 to check out, if you're lucky enough to live long enough, 0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:11.360 you need people to feed you and to wipe your tooks. 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:16.800 It's fascinating how that works. But the kid looks great. 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:19.920 Everything I've seen, all the photos are awesome. You've been 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:23.400 posting a lot of stuff and so it's it's been 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:28.400 cool to see. And you've got to get that daily grind, right. 0:02:28.440 --> 0:02:29.919 I guess it's going to change a lot like the 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:37.040 first few years of the kid. It's every month it changes, right. Yeah. 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:40.400 It's interesting because you know, because all of a sudden, 0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:44.320 you're more worried about some little human than yourself, and 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:48.239 you're constantly checking on this baby, even when it's snapping 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:52.000 because you're like, is he blocking his nose in his 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:53.560 mouth with his hands? 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:54.200 What is he? 0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:57.320 You know, you've got your eye on this little baby. 0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:01.600 Twenty four to seven. And then the hospital is like, oh, 0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:05.720 you have your first doctor's appointment the next day. And 0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:08.040 so the next day we're in the car and we're 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:10.640 taking this kid to a doctor's appointment. And I'm like, 0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:12.920 but we just left the hospital. Why are we back 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:15.520 at a doctor's appointment. And she's like, oh, you got 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:18.680 to come back next week too, And I was like, man, shit, this. 0:03:18.560 --> 0:03:21.000 Is going to be never ending. Yeah. 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.280 Yeah, and make sure you bring your checkbook with you 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:30.040 when you come back. And yeah, well, because they have 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:31.880 to do all the measurements right and all. That's like 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:34.639 it's like buying a car. You got to make sure 0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:37.280 everything's working, all the spark plugs and all that stuff 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.600 are working. Make sure everything's are right. 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:42.440 It's more like getting a lemon if you got to 0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:44.120 bring it to the mechanic every week. 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.160 That's a fair point. That's a point. Fair point. And 0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:49.560 the other thing which is fascinating is that you know, 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.640 this is obviously we're in a advanced country, but there's 0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:54.920 a lot of people around the world that don't live 0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:59.600 in places like this that are having kids. And methinks, Danny, 0:03:59.640 --> 0:04:02.600 they're not not going to the doctor every week, you 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:05.920 know what I mean? You know, just it's better off 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.560 doing it. But there is a path to not necessari 0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:11.160 necessarily doing it. And then you have to wait a 0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:15.200 little while to get all like the shots, right, you 0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:17.400 have to get those kid shots at some point, so 0:04:17.520 --> 0:04:19.040 I don't know how long they wait for that. But 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:21.280 there's a whole there's a whole list they have all 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:23.159 like a laundry list, right of stuff you have to 0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:26.000 go through step by step with the kid, dude. 0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:29.760 And some of these nurses inside we went to like 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:33.520 the Mini Kaiser here where we live locally, and the 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:37.600 nurse who took us back into our room, I swear to. 0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:39.479 God, Ben I'm a doctor. 0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:44.880 She was uncoordinated, she was lost at what she was doing. 0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:50.719 She measured the kid's head in centimeters instead of inches. 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.000 Oh boy. 0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:55.120 We found this out when the doctor came in and 0:04:55.240 --> 0:05:02.480 was like, what whoa You know? The doctor thought the 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:04.960 kid had the world's largest melon. 0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:06.080 Yeah. 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:10.960 And also she pulled up the computer to try to 0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:14.320 schedule us for all these dumb appointments that probably aren't 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:18.520 necessary until the kid needs the shots, like you said, yeah, 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:21.280 because yeah, it's just basically the weigh and measure. 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:24.240 And my wife he's like, he's eating too much. I'm 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:25.520 not worried about any of that. 0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:29.640 So she's like, you know, looking in the computer, she's like, 0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:31.280 I don't understand what's going on. 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:34.760 There is nothing available all next week. 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.880 I don't get it. She was in two thoy and 0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:40.640 twenty two in her computer. 0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:45.080 That would make it a little difficult. But if you 0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:49.160 had a DeLorean, Danny could go back and you might 0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:51.280 be able to worry. So you had any walking disasters 0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:54.760 and nurse that's too bad, Yes, either having a bad 0:05:54.839 --> 0:06:00.120 day or she's just generally be draggled, I guess. So 0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:02.080 then you get at some point you're gonna get the 0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:05.520 I always love the measurables, right that you are the percentile, 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:09.880 you're in this percentile or that percentile, and they got 0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:13.280 the mat. That's the early analytics, Danny, that's the analytics 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.920 for your son will be or in this percentile for 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:20.760 or weight or right. I mean, so you got that in. 0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:24.279 The early signs are he will be an NFL linebacker? 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.200 And what team will you be playing for the. 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:30.080 Las Vegas Raiders are all be very upset. 0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:33.719 Well, by the time your son is twenty in his 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:37.200 early twenties, when most people play in the NFL, the 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:40.479 Raiders will likely have moved on from Vegas. They'll move 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:43.920 on somewhere, don't they move every like twenty twenty five 0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:47.480 years or so. It seems like it. 0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:49.040 Just get us that bullet train that we need and 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:52.960 it'll basically be part of Los Angeles. 0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:56.640 It's a suburb of LA It's just that's the way 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:56.880 it is. 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:57.039 So. 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:02.479 But I did see the photo your son partaking in 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:06.160 the family bonding there. You were watching the Raider game. 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:10.400 It's his first silver and Black Sunday, even though it's 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:15.160 practiced football. It was Raiders Niners in Vegas where the 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.720 Raiders put the whoop in all over the forty nine ers, 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:20.760 and he proudly wore his Raider Onesie. 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:24.120 Yeah, he looked good too. That's a good looking, good 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:26.880 looking photo there, And I'm sure you will use that 0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:30.520 when he grows up to become a cowboy fan. You 0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:35.040 will use that as evidence to say, from the very beginning, 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:38.160 before you were even like, you know, two weeks old, 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:39.760 you were wearing that Raider stuff. 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:42.800 So I almost feel like Ben that I should pose 0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:46.840 him in lots of different NFL gear. That way, if 0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:49.880 he does finally make it to the NFL Draft someday, 0:07:50.480 --> 0:07:54.200 we can pull out some bullshit story about how he 0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:55.800 grew up a fan of that team. 0:07:56.200 --> 0:08:00.600 That's a great idea. Yeah, that's that's solidesdays. Can just 0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:03.160 photoshop it, but it would be more fun, like with 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:05.400 you in it. You know, they do like the father's 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:07.560 son and you get your wife in there, the mom, 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:10.200 the whole family there. I get the other kids around there, 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:11.760 and uh yeah. 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:15.480 I'd dream come true. 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:17.440 When I was before I even knew what a football was. 0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:20.679 So have you been getting sleep? People have been emailing 0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:23.040 asking I know, we get the mail bag tomorrow, but 0:08:23.080 --> 0:08:25.760 people have been asking Danny about You know a lot 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:27.200 of guys that have kids. They are like, oh, I'm 0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:29.520 sure Danny's not sleeping anymore. How's he going to handle 0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:32.640 working and all that stuff? So has it been terrible? 0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:35.880 Do you have the the shifts down? Are you doing 0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:37.800 I assume you're doing part of the day and then 0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:41.960 the wife's doing the rest of it. Wrong, how's it work? 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:48.000 We don't have our schedules down yet because for Monday, Tuesday, 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:52.240 Wednesday the Covino and Rich Show, and I were doing 0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:53.640 the Dan Patrick Show. 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:02.439 Pleasure to be here this week for Dan Patrick. Yes, 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:04.400 there's a there's a piece that comes with you. 0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:06.319 I mean, look at like I said, Jamar Chase is 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:08.199 having to go to court to tell a one night 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:10.640 stand to stop bothering my mother, my family. 0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:12.600 He's worried about it. Yeah. 0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:16.520 So no, no, peace of mind better than piece of booty. 0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:17.400 He's not kidding. 0:09:17.400 --> 0:09:19.360 And there was a moment last night where I was 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:21.959 holding my new son, Koa, and I looked at him 0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:24.240 and I was like, holy crap, what did I do? 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:30.080 No, I'm kidding. It's such a blessing. There there are. 0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.600 Times where you know, you look back and you're like, yeah, 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:35.360 single days in your twenties or thirties, it's it's a 0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:38.640 lot of fun. But peace of mind you can't beat it. 0:09:41.040 --> 0:09:42.760 As you know, you got to wake your butt up 0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:46.800 at four am for that early morning show. I was 0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:50.800 in the studios by five am and then home around 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:54.480 brunch time. So when I and when I got home, 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:57.480 I needed a nap, but first hold the baby and 0:09:58.080 --> 0:10:01.640 wash bottles and relieve my wifey a little bit. She 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.800 has been a trooper. Man, She's doing most of the 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:07.920 hard work. I'm just her rn, if you know what 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:09.840 I'm saying. I'm her assistant. 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:14.000 Yeah, And I mean it's got to be scary, right 0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:16.720 because it's the kids so fragile, right, It's like it's 0:10:16.760 --> 0:10:18.880 got to be like, you know, you will wait a 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:20.760 little bit till the kid gets bigger, but you got 0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:21.640 to keep an eye on it. 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:25.080 And man, it's yeah, it's like in high school when 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:29.480 they made it carry those stupid eggs around. You know, 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:32.160 I didn't break mine, Thank god I got a good 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:33.520 grade in that class. 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:38.319 But it's just like that, and you have this new sense. 0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:43.559 Of worrying about somebody that you have this really strong 0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:48.840 connection to. Immediately the moment he started crying when he 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:50.360 was delivered. 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:51.959 Blank my blank and blank you. 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:59.319 I can't even explain the experience. Strange, almost like how 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:02.760 do you see? Can't put it into words, And parents 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:05.719 would always tell me that can't explain it to you, 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:07.920 you have to go through it. And now that I've 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:11.040 gone through it, I understand it. Can't really explain it 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:15.320 except I feel like I have a GPS as I 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:19.600 get further away from him, closer to work, I'm more 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:22.400 worried and I have a little more anxiety based on 0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:24.040 the fact that I want to know that he's good 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:24.679 all the time. 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.520 So now you have to make the house like the Pentagon, 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:30.920 where you have cameras every or I guess at Vegas 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:33.560 Casino would be a better I think that more cameras 0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:36.640 in Vegas than they do the Pentagon. Just get air 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:39.320 camera everywhere, and then when the kid gets a little older, 0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:44.400 you'll put like an Apple tag and air tag, yes, 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:47.160 inside the kid, just to keep track, just in case 0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:49.719 the kid goes anywhere there you'll be able to keep 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:53.840 track completely. And that's that's the way to Have you 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:54.800 been eating regularly? 0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:55.240 Did I know? 0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:58.959 I have heard friends of mine that I've had kids. 0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:01.320 You have a kid, you know you eat a little 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:07.160 a little more off hours. Has that started for you? 0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:10.440 Or have you been able to avoid the leftovers and 0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:13.920 the cold pizza and the half eaten turkey sandwich and 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:14.640 that kind of stuff. 0:12:15.320 --> 0:12:15.439 You know? 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:21.319 It's funny because my in laws brought over these delicious 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:24.920 lemon cakes. We didn't even eat any of them because 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:27.679 we were like, okay, that's the kind of crap we 0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:32.720 were eating while she was pregnant, and now the right portions, 0:12:33.800 --> 0:12:36.839 there's like the right proteins on the plate now the 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:41.359 past few days. And so my girl already has transitioned 0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:44.920 to all right, now, I gotta lose this baby weight. 0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:46.080 I'm healing right now. 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:48.600 And you know, when she puts her mind to anything, 0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:51.400 she kicks ass at it. So what's going to happen 0:12:51.440 --> 0:12:54.000 now is she's going to go back to eating very 0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:57.640 healthy like she did before she got pregnant. And there's 0:12:57.679 --> 0:12:59.480 not going to be a lot of in and out 0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:03.000 runs anymore the way there was when she was making 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:03.640 this guy. 0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:07.360 So bad news for the local in and out Burger 0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:14.360 and several other doll Taco bell. Sorry, but that that's over. 0:13:14.600 --> 0:13:16.839 That's over for now. So it's like training camp. You 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:18.319 got to get back in shape, right, You got to 0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:21.600 get back and that whole thing. And that'll take a while. 0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:25.720 This new weird schedule that I'm creating somewhere in there, 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:30.000 I have to at least add swimming or you know, 0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:34.880 cardio or something where I'm getting my ass in gear 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:38.839 again because I definitely also have some baby weight to lose. 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:41.640 Well, the move here from what I've heard from buddies 0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:45.199 of mine that have had kids, is the three wheeled 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:49.680 stroller and the pushy pushy and where you go for 0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:52.680 the walk and I don't know, it's not great cardio, 0:13:52.720 --> 0:13:55.080 but at least your body's moving, you're getting out. You 0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:57.520 can take the kid with you. He'll probably sleeping the 0:13:57.520 --> 0:13:59.760 whole time. Make sure it's covered so they don't get 0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:02.599 most of the sun or whatever, but that could be 0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:03.280 the way to do it. 0:14:03.880 --> 0:14:07.160 We have one of those fancy strollers that the kid 0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:09.280 pops off, it turns into a car seat. 0:14:09.640 --> 0:14:10.520 Oh nice. 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:13.240 Yeah, and the stroller part of it is still in 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:16.200 the garage. I need to put that part together. So 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.640 I'm sure we'll be ready to take walks next year. 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:25.720 So are you still in the I don't know if 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:29.240 honeymoon stage is the right place, but I've I've also 0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:31.720 heard from my friends that have had the kids that 0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:35.320 when you first have the kid, like everyone wants to 0:14:35.360 --> 0:14:39.920 help you out, and then after a while they might 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:43.440 come and see the kid, but you're kind of you're 0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:44.800 on you know, But I think you're still in that 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:47.280 nice period right where people like bringing your food and 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:49.480 stuff and they're like, hey, what can we do let's 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:50.200 help you out a little. 0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:54.080 It's funny that you ask about that, because that was 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:59.600 one of my Wifey's takeaways after we got home. She's like, 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:03.240 where are all the meals that I thought friends and 0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:08.760 friendly would bring over? Instead it was us ordering Instacart 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:13.680 and doing Costco and ordering from the grocery store where 0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:18.800 you just go park in their special parking space where 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:22.880 they load the back of your car, you know, Like 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:25.520 I said her, I said in laws. It was my 0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:29.360 mother in law. She came over with groceries. And then 0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:33.800 my girl's dad came and visited the baby just for 0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:38.120 a few minutes this past weekend, and that was pretty cool. 0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:41.080 And they brought some things, and they brought a nice 0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:44.160 little Costco meal for us. That was nice. But other 0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:47.720 than that, nothing. There's been some things in the mail. 0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:51.160 There was actually a few packages, some clothing from the 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:57.440 mal Or Militia. Oh nice Camion company. Yeah, yeah, a 0:15:57.440 --> 0:15:58.640 lot of it raiter related. 0:15:58.720 --> 0:15:59.360 That was cool. 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:02.880 Yeah, there's been things in the mail. It was and 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.240 you back up a few months. It was a really 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:09.280 cool baby shower and registry and like you and your 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:13.040 lovely wife gave us a really really cool gift that's 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:17.040 been in total use right now, and so you know, 0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:21.680 I feel like I feel very grateful for anything that 0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.360 anybody gives you to help out, because it is a 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:28.000 stressful time financially. The fact that we had to do 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.480 some of our own grocery shopping right now not a 0:16:30.480 --> 0:16:32.440 big deal. I think my wife was just kind of 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:35.840 kidding more than anything, because she was like, I didn't 0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:37.960 think i'd have to be cooking or in the kitchen, 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:41.200 and I was like, yeah, well you're stubborn. Go sit down, 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.360 I'll make you something. She's obviously the better cook than 0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:46.920 I am, so that's why she wants to get back 0:16:46.920 --> 0:16:47.720 into the kitchen so. 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:51.400 Badly understandable, you know, from what I've heard, Danny, it's 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:54.640 a fiasco when you're in the option there. But you know, 0:16:54.720 --> 0:16:57.560 it's certain things like it's really hard to mess up 0:16:57.640 --> 0:17:00.480 air fryer stuff, like you know, it's like that's stuff. 0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:03.880 It's pretty much set it and forget it. It's it's 0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:06.879 hard to have a catastrophe in the kitchen when you 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:10.760 do the air fire and all that. But anyway, congratulations 0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:12.640 that I'm happy for. It's great and I'm sure we'll 0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:16.960 get many updates on the changing world of your son 0:17:17.040 --> 0:17:20.120 here as we as we move forward. I did want 0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:24.719 to also mention on this being the Saturday podcast the Northeaster. 0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:30.040 I call it the unexpected trip that I had last week, 0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:32.760 and I hope you enjoyed the podcast. We made sure 0:17:32.840 --> 0:17:36.760 to have original podcast even though I was away on 0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:41.400 assignment and I was unable to You were away, Danny, 0:17:41.400 --> 0:17:45.320 because you had obviously your fatherly duties. I was traveling 0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:48.400 and this was not a trip that I had planned 0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:52.240 way in advance. It was only a short amount of 0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:55.679 time and I ended up in Boston. I had a 0:17:55.720 --> 0:18:00.639 great time. I can't really get too deep into it yet. 0:18:00.800 --> 0:18:04.040 Hopefully soon, probably very soon, I'll be able to give 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:08.359 you some information on it. But it was mostly in Boston, 0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:11.480 but I ended up having a little bit starting. 0:18:11.160 --> 0:18:13.840 The East Coast wing of Chippendale's. 0:18:14.560 --> 0:18:20.600 Yes, I've decided to branch out from being the overnight 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:23.280 guy and I want to give people nightmares. I'm going 0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:27.360 to start Chippendales for fat guys, for the women who 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:30.000 love fat men, and I think that's a great way 0:18:30.040 --> 0:18:32.800 to go and what could possibly go wrong with that? 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:35.719 So Yeah, I was in Boston and I hit all 0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:37.800 the new England States. Though I did not hit Vermont, 0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:40.000 I was gonna see Arnie span Your I figured, you know, 0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:43.000 I was in Boston, I had, I had. I decided 0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:45.040 to stay a little bit longer so I could enjoy 0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:47.800 Boston because I had some work stuff. But and then 0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:51.040 I went to UH I called. I text Arnie. The 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:54.800 first thing about this, Danny g is now, I used 0:18:54.840 --> 0:18:57.440 to work with Arnie a long time ago. We've known 0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:02.040 each other for way too long. But I went. I 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:05.520 typed Arnie's number into my phone to text him, and 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:09.560 I had not sent him a text in over ten years. 0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:11.280 It was like eleven years the last time I sent 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:15.200 a text, So like, oh man, that's a lot I want. 0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:17.080 I didn't even know it was still this number. So 0:19:17.119 --> 0:19:20.280 I sent a text, and I kind of was vague 0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:22.879 because I wasn't sure. I thought maybe Arnie changed his 0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:25.159 number because it was like an I think it was 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:28.480 an LA number, and he's in Vermont the area code. 0:19:28.520 --> 0:19:30.320 So I sent him a message and he wrote back 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:32.920 and he's like, who's this, which tells me he deleted 0:19:32.920 --> 0:19:36.399 my number from his phone, you know what. Either that 0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:39.239 or it was somebody else. So we're going back and 0:19:39.280 --> 0:19:42.280 forth and it turns out it was Arnie. So then 0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:44.880 I'm like, all right, you know, you know I'm in Boston. 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:47.240 I love to see you, I know, maybe go lunch 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:52.119 or something dinner. And he's like, he's like, it's like 0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:55.600 two and a half three hours from where I was 0:19:55.680 --> 0:19:58.120 to where he is. And I was like, I don't 0:19:58.160 --> 0:20:00.359 know about that. Yeah, So I didn't do it, but 0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:02.120 I do want to get to Vermont. I will see 0:20:02.200 --> 0:20:05.119 Arnie at some point when I get back to Boston. 0:20:05.200 --> 0:20:07.840 But I didn't get to Vermont. But we made it 0:20:08.359 --> 0:20:10.920 all the other New England states. I the wife had 0:20:10.960 --> 0:20:12.920 not been to Rhode Island. I had been to Rhode Island. 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:17.199 So we did the full New England one day trip 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:20.600 from Provident and we drove down to Providence, Rhode Island. 0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:23.480 Here's a fun fact. We went to rent a car 0:20:23.560 --> 0:20:26.679 because I usually did not have a car. So we 0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:29.880 went to this small commuter airport, which is a private 0:20:29.920 --> 0:20:34.000 airport outside Boston, which is where Robert Craft and Bill 0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:37.479 Belichick and Gronk well he used to have he's not 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:40.760 there anymore, but Belichick and Craft have their private plane, 0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:43.200 and Brady used to fly out of this private airport, 0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:46.879 and so the guy at the rental car place, you know, 0:20:46.960 --> 0:20:50.320 typical Boston, New England guy. You know, he's rapping about it. 0:20:50.320 --> 0:20:52.639 And all these people that come into the airport. You know, 0:20:53.280 --> 0:20:57.080 it's no commercial, it's no public, it's just for some reason, 0:20:57.080 --> 0:20:59.080 they at a rental car place, but it's a private airport. 0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:01.080 And he's like, oh yeah, yeah. Robert Craft comes to 0:21:01.080 --> 0:21:03.080 you know, he's very nice, very polite. You know, everyone 0:21:03.320 --> 0:21:07.560 loves him. Belichick, you know, total jerk. He doesn't talk 0:21:07.600 --> 0:21:10.600 to anybody. And then he was talking about great Gronk 0:21:10.880 --> 0:21:14.240 was and all that. So but got the car and 0:21:14.280 --> 0:21:19.359 then we ended up partly because the Uber driver to 0:21:19.400 --> 0:21:21.160 get to the runner car place is like, oh eh, 0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:22.920 you go down to Rhode Island, you know, And I 0:21:22.960 --> 0:21:24.480 had been to Rade Island. My wife had not been. 0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:26.920 So we ended up driving down to Rhode Island, Providence, 0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:30.040
