0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:02.200
<v Speaker 1>a wild travel walk us through what happened. It all

0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:06.320
<v Speaker 1>started on a stormy day. No, it was five am

0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.360
<v Speaker 1>in Michigan. I woke up. I was very excited. I

0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 1>had packed, I'd pre packed. I was very fired up

0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:16.960
<v Speaker 1>because it was Ben's baby day, so I was excited

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:19.400
<v Speaker 1>to be invited, excited to be a part of it.

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I woke up, I'm all fired up. I shower, I'm

0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 1>out the door quietly by the way, because I have

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:26.919
<v Speaker 1>two young boys who I don't want to wait because

0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:30.400
<v Speaker 1>that would make mommy not happy. And I'm out the door.

0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:31.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm on my way to the airport. I get there

0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>a little bit early. I have a nice breakfast sandwich.

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Things are just going beautifully, and then as I board

0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:42.280
<v Speaker 1>the plane, they tell us there might be a maintenance

0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>issue with some air supply, not the band, but the

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:50.000
<v Speaker 1>actual circulation of air within the plane. Three and a

0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 1>half hours later, we're getting off the plane. I'm texting

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:58.320
<v Speaker 1>everyone that matters here at our iHeart family, saying I

0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:00.960
<v Speaker 1>think I'm in trouble. I don't know what's going to happen.

0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:05.920
<v Speaker 1>There was one plane that went out again at twelve thirty,

0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 1>and this is again, this is eight twenty five that

0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.600
<v Speaker 1>I board the plane, but I couldn't try to get

0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:13.480
<v Speaker 1>on that plane until I was already kicked off. The

0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:16.240
<v Speaker 1>other plane was kind of a long story. Anyway, we're

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:19.239
<v Speaker 1>here for him, I run across the airport from Gate

0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:25.200
<v Speaker 1>A sixteen to Kate A seventy two, sprinting like Carl Jones, Wait,

0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:29.480
<v Speaker 1>wasn't it Carl Lewis Carl Lewis across the airport and

0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:33.040
<v Speaker 1>as I arrive, I get on the plane with there

0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:36.480
<v Speaker 1>was twenty two people on standby. There were two seats available.

0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:38.760
<v Speaker 1>I got one of them. So I made it. And

0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:41.200
<v Speaker 1>maybe I would have made it without that. I would

0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 1>have walked. I would have briskly walked. I would not

0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:46.600
<v Speaker 1>have made it without it. But I was trying, and

0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.720
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I was like throwing out recommendations like hey,

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I might be able to podcast from my you know,

0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:55.480
<v Speaker 1>closet at my house, and Amy Sugarman is like, absolutely no.

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>This is all about top quality sonic experiences. So I

0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:01.160
<v Speaker 1>just had to make sure we got it done, and

0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:02.360
<v Speaker 1>therefore I charted the plane.

0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:05.520
<v Speaker 3>I appreciate it, buddy, you literally charted a plane. You

0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:10.160
<v Speaker 3>have a wild experience on your flight, then with some people,

0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:12.240
<v Speaker 3>a new YU you even recognized a few times on

0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 3>this flight.

0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.920
<v Speaker 1>Well yeah, so I don't care what side of the

0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:18.160
<v Speaker 1>political eil you're on. I think she happens to be

0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:23.040
<v Speaker 1>a great governor. The great governor of Michigan, Miss Gretchen Whitmer,

0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 1>was on my flight. But what a lot of people

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:27.320
<v Speaker 1>don't know was she was my buddy in college, so

0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:30.560
<v Speaker 1>she had many years. She was in first class. I

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:34.840
<v Speaker 1>was relegated to steerage and on this flight, I was

0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:38.000
<v Speaker 1>in middle seat, by the way, And on this flight,

0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:42.800
<v Speaker 1>she glances over her shoulder and she's like, Bob. I'm like, hey, crotch,

0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:46.560
<v Speaker 1>give her a big hug. And I go, I'm so

0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 1>proud of everything you've done. And she goes, I'm just

0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:52.120
<v Speaker 1>a governor, You're a big time which I thought was

0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:54.599
<v Speaker 1>really funny. We took a picture. I sent it to

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.200
<v Speaker 1>my wife. My wife now thinks I should run her government.

0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Then the guy I'm sitting next to on the plane crazy.

0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:03.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking at this guy. I'm like, God, this guy

0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:08.040
<v Speaker 1>looks familiar to me. I've never met him before. His

0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:13.920
<v Speaker 1>dad was my mentor in high school, who was the

0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:16.760
<v Speaker 1>quarterback before I was in high school. He went on

0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 1>a play. He walked out at Michigan got a scholarship.

0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:20.240
<v Speaker 1>I want to I walked out on Michigan State, got

0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:22.760
<v Speaker 1>a scholarship. His dad and I like these two quarterbacks.

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:26.359
<v Speaker 1>Came out of Riverview, who you know, small school in Michigan,

0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:30.560
<v Speaker 1>kept making the state semifinals, never made the finals. The

0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:33.159
<v Speaker 1>guy was like, my one of my heroes. His dad

0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:35.280
<v Speaker 1>and he's like, oh my god, my dad was just

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:37.920
<v Speaker 1>talking about you. You're Bob Guiney. I'm like, what was

0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:40.200
<v Speaker 1>your dad saying about me? Was like super excited. He's

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:41.960
<v Speaker 1>like he said you were super cool and that you

0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:43.360
<v Speaker 1>do all this kind of stuff. I'm like, your dad

0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.479
<v Speaker 1>said dad. I'm like, I'm like, oh, I was like

0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 1>a great moment. So anyway, yeah, I had a really

<v Speaker 1>nice flight and arrived of course, comes here to Tyrannya,

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:56.040
<v Speaker 1>which I love. Our suite, it's the Imperial Palace suite.

0:05:57.440 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know what this means, sir as we

0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 1>would well.

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.719
<v Speaker 4>The imperior Palace, but we are in a little house.

0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:05.320
<v Speaker 4>And Ben, how about you getting here?

0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:06.880
<v Speaker 1>And was it a challenge for you?

0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:09.120
<v Speaker 4>You had to leave Jess for your baby shower.

0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:12.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I left my wife because she is doing her

0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:16.719
<v Speaker 3>baby shower in Nashville. So I left her today to

0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.440
<v Speaker 3>fly here for this. Wait, is she in Nashville now

0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 3>or she leaves tomorrow morning?

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:21.599
<v Speaker 2>First thing?

0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:24.279
<v Speaker 3>And so I'm replacing her so I can watch the

0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:27.880
<v Speaker 3>dog nice. So I'm we're gonna be bypassing each other.

0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:31.520
<v Speaker 3>In fact, I'll land as she's getting on her flight, excellent,

0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:34.720
<v Speaker 3>and then i'll see her when she gets back. So

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:38.640
<v Speaker 3>she'll be celebrated and love done so well, and I'll

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:41.000
<v Speaker 3>be celebrated and love done so well tonight. I know

0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:44.920
<v Speaker 3>this is very special. I'm very excited for her to

0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:48.719
<v Speaker 3>be here, Bob. We have some incredible guests. Is there

0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:53.920
<v Speaker 3>one as we anticipate the evening that you're really excited

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:56.680
<v Speaker 3>to talk to, Like they're really kind of like when

0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:58.760
<v Speaker 3>you saw the list, you said, I cannot wait to

0:06:58.800 --> 0:06:59.920
<v Speaker 3>have a conversation with them.

0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:01.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'll say this. You know, one of the things

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.480
<v Speaker 1>that we're gonna do tonight is, if you don't mind,

0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:06.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna ask everyone tonight for a little bit of

0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:10.680
<v Speaker 1>parenting and books because the majority of the majority of

0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 1>the folks we're gonna interview tonight have them. I think

0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I think the Golden Ladies I love them very much anyway,

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Like I really enjoy them, and I think that the

0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:23.880
<v Speaker 1>three of them together are just magic. I think Joan

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:26.600
<v Speaker 1>in shock. I'm very excited to meet them, very excited

0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:29.720
<v Speaker 1>to talk with them. I'm a fan of his. I'm

0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:33.600
<v Speaker 1>a big fan of Jones, but watching the season, I've

0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:35.160
<v Speaker 1>become a fan of his and I'm excited to see

0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:38.600
<v Speaker 1>their dynamic. But I'm also excited to hear the advice.

0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:42.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, Like I think, I think we all think

0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:44.960
<v Speaker 1>we know what we're doing, but there's no handbook when

0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:46.600
<v Speaker 1>you have a kid, right, there's like, you know.

0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:49.800
<v Speaker 3>The best advice may have ever been given. It's just like, hey,

0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:52.400
<v Speaker 3>we're all building the plane and flying at the same time.

0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:54.600
<v Speaker 1>And guess what, nobody's wrong.

0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know what I mean.

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Like, at the end of the day, your way is

0:07:57.720 --> 0:08:00.000
<v Speaker 1>going to be your way and you're you're in Jessice.

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Way is going to be what you guys choose, and

0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:04.400
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be your own choice. We've all been

0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:06.680
<v Speaker 1>raised by parents that we think did a great job

0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 1>or some that didn't do a great job. But I'm

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:12.120
<v Speaker 1>not gonna do the same way my parents did it either.

0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:14.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna have my own little twist and I hope

0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:17.360
<v Speaker 1>that you know that helps my kids. And I'm sure

0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:18.600
<v Speaker 1>you guys are going to do the same thing and

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 1>make the same choices. So I'm excited for you guys,

0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:23.880
<v Speaker 1>and excited to see how the whole thing unfolds. I

0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 1>love you both as a couple. I think that having

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:30.640
<v Speaker 1>a child is going to be I mean, it's just

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:32.959
<v Speaker 1>a perfect fit for you. Dude. You're born to be

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:35.360
<v Speaker 1>a dad. I feel like you're kind of my dad

0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:38.080
<v Speaker 1>in certain ways that I mean, you're like thirty seven

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.000
<v Speaker 1>years younger than me, but you also give me parenting

0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:42.560
<v Speaker 1>advice all the time, which I love. I'll be like, Ben,

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 1>what do you think I should do? And you're like, well, buddy,

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.440
<v Speaker 1>why don't you just buck up? And you know, you

0:09:03.120 --> 0:09:07.840

<v Speaker 3>you and I have one thing we are going to

0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:21.239
<v Speaker 3>argue about. You're a Delta guy. I'm a United guy.

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:25.480

<v Speaker 4>Recently peanuts to Bob.

<v Speaker 3>Two million people in general, two million miles on Delta.

0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:38.679
<v Speaker 2>Yes, if you had to all of again, would you

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:39.600
<v Speaker 2>have switched to United?

0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:42.839
<v Speaker 1>I started United? Actually, well I shouldn't say. I started

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Northwest Airlines, which then turned into Delta, but then Bachelor

0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:50.400
<v Speaker 1>put me on United. I wasn't born yet, and such

0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:54.240
<v Speaker 1>horrible experiences just as an airline and as a people.

0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.120
<v Speaker 1>No until O kidding, I tell kiddy, I think I

0:11:57.120 --> 0:12:01.440

0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:01.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, you.

<v Speaker 2>you got.

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:05.839
<v Speaker 1>You gotta be a United guy. You gotta be a

0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:08.480
<v Speaker 1>nightty guy. And I'm a Delta guy. I will say this,

0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:12.400
<v Speaker 1>had it not been for my status Diamond two million,

0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:19.200
<v Speaker 1>to see you today. And I will say this to

0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:22.360
<v Speaker 1>those other twenty one people who probably had major family

0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:27.280
<v Speaker 1>obligations and incredible difficult moments they were encountering. Sorry sucker,

0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:32.120
<v Speaker 1>So it's okay. I will say this. I did kept saying.

0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.000
<v Speaker 4>winery and it doesn't have a hot tub.

0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:54.000
<v Speaker 3>You never watched my season, there was literally a hot

0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:56.400
<v Speaker 3>tub sitting in the middle of the Desert Sugarman.

0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:01.560
<v Speaker 1>Resort in Alaska. On my season, there is no hot tub.

0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:05.000
<v Speaker 1>They make a plastic pool, yes, into a hot tub.

0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:05.720
<v Speaker 1>It's not warm.

0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:09.240
<v Speaker 4>No, it's like you know, when you're out like a

0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:13.840
<v Speaker 4>buffet and there's like that candle underneath the silver that's

0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:15.040
<v Speaker 4>how I heard they do the hot tab.

0:17:15.160 --> 0:17:17.040
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't anything more than that because we couldn't have

0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:19.840
<v Speaker 1>the heater would not be on because it would ruin

0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:20.400
<v Speaker 1>the audio.

0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:23.440
<v Speaker 4>So it was cold, like look ice cold.

0:17:23.680 --> 0:17:25.439
<v Speaker 1>First of all, it's at the base of a mountain

0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:28.360
<v Speaker 1>in Alaska and there's not a hot tub there.

0:17:28.440 --> 0:17:30.760
<v Speaker 3>That's yeah, there's a hot tub in the middle of

0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:31.240
<v Speaker 3>the desert.

0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:32.120
<v Speaker 2>Like, that's not a thing.

0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:37.600
<v Speaker 3>No, there'll get in. They literally like truck it in.

0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:39.640
<v Speaker 4>I learned this yesterday.

0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Garden hose plastic tub lighter.

0:17:42.680 --> 0:17:44.159
<v Speaker 4>So it doesn't have the proper chemicals.

0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:46.679
<v Speaker 1>Oh I got weird rashes?

0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:47.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:49.920
<v Speaker 4>Did you that happened for your show too?

0:17:50.320 --> 0:17:51.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh? Yeah twice.

0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:54.240
<v Speaker 4>And let me ask you, is this because they want

0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:57.800
<v Speaker 4>the shirtless bikini moment or do they want hoping like

0:17:57.920 --> 0:17:59.080
<v Speaker 4>some kisses happen.

0:17:59.359 --> 0:17:59.720
<v Speaker 1>It's like.

0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:03.800
<v Speaker 2>They wanted me without my shirt on as much as

0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:05.720
<v Speaker 2>possible with me.

0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:08.520
<v Speaker 1>They wanted me to wear a shirt and they were

0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:11.639
<v Speaker 1>trying to pack me up with a thermal whatever.

0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:15.280
<v Speaker 3>Whatever average body you've got is going to relate with

0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:17.760
<v Speaker 3>so much of the American public.

0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:19.439
<v Speaker 4>What was your thing?

0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:20.400
<v Speaker 2>That the perfect bend?

0:18:20.480 --> 0:18:22.400
<v Speaker 4>The perfect bend, that's caused him a lot. He needs

0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:25.359
<v Speaker 4>therapy from that. Wait, does this before you had the worm?

0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:28.320
<v Speaker 4>Does everybody know about that? Then was essentially sick his

0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:29.040
<v Speaker 4>entire season.

0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I noticed you got skinnier.

0:18:32.640 --> 0:18:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, my shirt off. I just look good.

0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:38.800
<v Speaker 1>Well anyway, I will say my season of the Bachelor,

0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:44.640
<v Speaker 1>they found ways to put me in sweaters. You get

0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:49.480
<v Speaker 1>him in a turtleneck, we ensconce him in a snowbill suit.

0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:52.159
<v Speaker 3>Uh, this is going to be a great night. The

0:18:52.280 --> 0:18:54.200
<v Speaker 3>guests are going to arrive here in the next few minutes.

0:18:54.800 --> 0:18:56.560
<v Speaker 3>We've got to get prepped. We've got to get ready.

0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:03.240
<v Speaker 4>Struggling some wise like words as we start your baby

0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:08.280
<v Speaker 4>shower that you're feeling about becoming a dad, I mean tech.

0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:12.120
<v Speaker 3>You're a dad now, yeahnam My wise words are this,

0:19:15.320 --> 0:19:21.640
<v Speaker 3>be present, be patient, give everything around you a ton

0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:24.159
<v Speaker 3>of grace and understanding.

0:19:25.160 --> 0:19:26.880
<v Speaker 2>And with a baby.

0:19:26.520 --> 0:19:30.960
<v Speaker 3>Girl, the best advice I've been given is to represent

0:19:31.000 --> 0:19:34.480
<v Speaker 3>what a man means to her, and let your wife

0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:37.800
<v Speaker 3>represent what a woman means to her and carry those

0:19:37.880 --> 0:19:42.720
<v Speaker 3>roles very specifically, but also with a ton of love.

0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:46.640
<v Speaker 3>And that's my hope, that's my desire. And then I'll

0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:49.320
<v Speaker 3>take any other advice I can get because I'm walking

0:19:49.359 --> 0:19:51.879
<v Speaker 3>into this thing and I'm winging it like most podcasts.

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:54.080
<v Speaker 1>A man, I think you're doing great. I think kindness

0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:56.760
<v Speaker 1>is key. I think about that all the time with

0:19:56.800 --> 0:19:59.680
<v Speaker 1>my kids, Like, whenever I get super irritated with whatever,

0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, man, if I can be kind here, then

0:20:03.040 --> 0:20:05.919
<v Speaker 1>when they when they have the same situation at school

0:20:06.000 --> 0:20:08.440
<v Speaker 1>or with their friends, maybe they'll emulate me a little

0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:10.440
<v Speaker 1>bit and they'll be kind. And so I as much

0:20:10.440 --> 0:20:12.280
<v Speaker 1>as I want to go bananas, I'll be like, oh,

0:20:12.800 --> 0:20:15.600
<v Speaker 1>let's try to not do that. You know, but I

0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:18.200
<v Speaker 1>think you got it. You're you got to figure it out.

0:20:18.200 --> 0:20:20.640
<v Speaker 1>You're already a great dad and you aren't even technically

0:20:20.640 --> 0:20:22.480
<v Speaker 1>a dad. Yeah, I guess, but you're going to be

0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:25.399
<v Speaker 1>a wonderful dad. And you and Jess are going to

0:20:25.480 --> 0:20:27.919

<v Speaker 1>arranged marriages. Now. Yeah, my children, uh, they're they're a

0:20:32.520 --> 0:20:36.960
