It is are momentous 30th episode which is more than half of a year and not a full year. It's a random number that I decided this gonna be our mailbag grab a gap sowed where we took a bunch of questions from our loyal listeners and People who aren't loyal maybe saw that message and were like, let me throw in a question a grab bag. It's like when you were a kid in a class, there'd be like a bag of of shitty toys and you'd be like shut your eyes and reach in and grab some and who knows where you're gonna get right? And there's a whole bunch of questions life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get. If you ever seen that movie Pulp Fiction, you know what it won best picture that year this podcast is not this shitty it it will get is exactly this. Shitty will tell us also this amazing. Yeah, so my name is Mike. I'm known online as Dad and buried this is my friend Pete. He is not known online and is barely known offline. My wife barely constantly is like who's in the house? Who's that? Who's that making a bunch of noise over there that motherfucker. So I make my bones as we will as you will if you will. No, trashing my children and the process. Yes the process of parenting because parenting sucks. You know, what you give yourself, you know, you're selling yourself short you Donnelly trust your own kids you trash other people's kids. I love thrashing other people's kids when I trash other people's kids. I mean it when I should just my kids are making sure I did during the episode. I spoke of a story in which I wrote a tweet in which I trash the kid for wearing a camouflage tank top. Yep, and boy that kid will you know what he loved? Hopefully he'll prove us all wrong and you never know. So I'm on I have a Blog called Dan and buried at that Danbury.com. I'm on Facebook Google search Facebook dead and buried I'm on Instagram. I'm verified. I don't like to talk about it because I'm pretty modest guy want and you do a lot of work for charity. I do I don't do any work for charity. You know what charity needs to do some work. Because I'm still unemployed. All right, okay. I'm doing my best. I'm having a good time with my friends and my family this is fun that is much with my family because who has that much fun with their family was weird, but I think to trash things in general these men these days. My life is dominated by my family and my children and parenting. So I spent a lot of time making jokes about it. My friend Pete here. He was like Hey, that guy's going places. Let me hitch my wagon to him. Yeah, or Another way to look at it is put this whole thing together. Oh that is another way to look at we're going to get into that a little bit later. Okay. Alright, so we appreciate you if you've been here before if you haven't welcome. There's a lot of different ways to support us. There's a lot of freeways like you can spread the word. Just tell somebody you meet on the street. Hey guy. Have you heard dad and Barry? Have you heard of them? What is it again? Bird? Known obey you. Okay. Someone came up to me once someone came up to me. Once he says and said, what does that mean buried? I didn't know what they were talking about. I'm like it's buried but apparently buried is the way some people pronounce the word buried Nate is nodding. Like, you know, it's like down south buried if that's a real thing Mike. You've really chosen a shit. Well other people think that sometimes I am dad and my son's name is buried like I named him buried. Yeah Barry buried which would be dad and be Ary apostrophe D what change you're so Son's name to bury right now to that very honestly, I'm considering it. Yeah, I actually kind of like that. Yeah, not only is it pop culture Revolution relevant skews? What is Barry Barry? Oh because of the Bill Hader show. Yes. I like that shot amazing. That's not pop culture relevant though why it's like it's like a which is not to say that it's not mainstream not a lot of people would stream when you hear the word bury. You don't immediately think of the show Barry you immediately think wow, that's a shitty name. I think that's the first instinct second thought is that's a good show with Billy Wright may be fine. Anyway, so you can spread the word on your street corner. You get a megaphone. I don't care how you do it. Just talk about me come I like it when people talk about me negative attention as my college roommate freshman year roommate would say negative attention is better than no attention boy and three divorces later. Anyway, he made a lot of good mix tapes. Yeah for a lot of cute girls.

Yes, we did and it was a topic near and dear to your heart one of your favorite topics. You were like four weeks. You were like, let's do this. Let's do this. Let's do this and I was like Pete calm down. I'm running the show and I'll decide when we fucking do it. No, I need it people a lot of people commented you seemed a little because you were I think chomping at the bit or is it champing at the bit champion champion champion. Look at this. Is it a cap or is it a hats? What horses do is it a cap or is it a hat can be either one depends on what you're talkin. My Fenway hat that you hate you think is disgusting ball cap. I would say thank you. Thank baseball Nate when you go to the doctor and you get a shot and they give you a treat. What is that treat called? Ibuprofen no, stop it. You know what? I'm getting at shut the fuck up and answer the question goddamnit lots of Oxycontin. Thank you a lot. What would you call it sweets? We were just drilling my whole premise. It's a sweet sweet suck a tree. It's still better than sucker, which is what some people call it. You know what I'm talking about. KSU. Julie was not a patron no calls me out. What and she was on our live earlier tonight giving us some bullshit making fun of you for pointing. You know. What this is for U KS you this is for you Casey. I was I guess what KSU? When did you when did you actually go to college was a while ago? I'm gonna I'm gonna guess. Yeah. It's probably kids. Guess what maybe drop the University from your name? You're a fucking grown adult. Yeah. It's probably 2017. Who's the sucker now? Anyway, I don't know. Remember what we were talking about? Yeah, so if you want to be violated listen up because so it's a great double standards app, Ms. Kabayan rate. One of the most loyal from the beginning. Look if I were going to say who the 200 G's were. Oh, yeah. This is so hard Temple was built and on rock and roll one Arch Rock Band I'ma buy it and then I would say funky feet Barbara guys right there coming up coming up in the rear. No offense. So Ms. But by and wanted to know was your shrieking during the last double standard this is what we're doing. So we you know, so we also push, you know Publishers on YouTube these episodes and so the idea is hopefully we want you to like really happening. But it we're trying to entice people when they see how good-looking we both are no one's good looking but the point is you're not acute Fassbender 2.0. Yeah low-rent low-rent. I'm a with a somebody call me like, I'm a third copy of Paul Rudd. Yeah. Yeah, but that's only because I encourage them to call me Paul Rudd. I don't think they really think that I don't think that you look like Paul Rudd. Fuck you God. How about that one? Hey listen, so on last week's episode MSB Bayan common commented Pete was drinking before this episode was how dare you also he needs to do an entire episode in his British accent. She hasn't messaged me independently. First thing and asked me to have you do this. Like I said Over My Dead Body am I gonna let that happen? Last episode I first I did not have anything to eat. You embarrassed yourself. Let's be honest. I was I texted you guys and I go I just listened this episode. I was unintelligible for half of it and no one I didn't even know they and I have spoken about it. We think lubed up Pete in more ways than one is more fun if better than yeah. Maybe you had a beer too many. I had no I the non the Silver version is nothing great it. I get worse as I drink and as you get to know me you get better and both sir. Oh my gosh, you know what? What a welcome surprise for my wife and family everybody. Yay. Look this is had here tonight. My family had a few tonight. I've had a couple but last week, let me just put it this last week. I must be buying you're goddamn right? I can't believe I haven't pandered to one of our oh, geez. He's and given a little British little. Oh, I don't know. What am I gonna do be like MSB buying you that I gu don't mean so kind of it we go sick to my stomach. Does it really now liverpudlian looking right straight out of man? Who's the king of your shuttle at Castle? What if I wanted to do Newcastle give you print a paper. Does anyone have any I will fucking I need some print appear bodies. I will walk out of here. You should right now I can't wait till you know what but then people We'll miss your Dolphins. He's got a dolphin's t-shirt, but it looks new go to YouTube. Was that are you being sarcastic you saying? It looks old. No I'm saying is that the new logo? Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's a few years. It's not from the 70s or 80s. No, but it's a new is that really their new logo? It's like a streamlined all years old. But yeah, they all did it's like oh, yeah, it's him. Now. There's that easy to make a dolphin look like if you know who did a good job of revamping their uniforms as Seahawks. Remember that thing used to be a real piece of shit the gray and growing up. The Seahawks were my second favorite team. They were horrible. And then they Steve Largent they kind of pulled together some other people could figure it out. Like what the fuck is this? You know, what name three players who've ever played football in the history of America. I'm happy homes. Tom Brady's son of a bitch and Mike Ditka. Oh, wow. Look at that, huh? I'm proud of you Mahomes. Thank break. I can't wait by the way, what a great time to be alive. What because Mahomes is Because football is about to start it's what three weeks away. We're gonna do a back-to-school episode at the beginning of September and I'm sure they'll be some football chatter nice. I mean here in the states. It's nice to be able to come off the summer here in the states. Well, we have international listeners. There's people in scunthorpe. Listen, what is like aren't Thorpe. It's a it's a beautiful beautiful sounds like a he-man villain UK scunthorpe and Skeletor and Trenton battling for Eternia. Attorney. Yeah, so what's funny about football season is my birthday is a very beginning September. I'm a Virgo look it up. It always happens to coincide with the start of football. Okay, what's even better is my team always sucks shit. Yep. So, I love it. Yeah, none of those things really made a difference to you. Okay. I turned 36 in September. Oh, that's not true. So here's one thing. I wanted to bring a list 34 you honestly have a demeanor of a mile. Demeanor of like an 80 year old person but I look 31 32. I mean, I mean, yeah, if you put a filter on and drink a lot of beers for sure. So here's the deal beer goggles. I obviously wanted to catch something from last you don't know but I didn't even so before we get into it, which this week's is just a grab bag of fucking all over the place this week. Well, it's a it's a hot mess but it's the it's the 30th episode so we don't really know what we're doing. Yeah. But so last week you had a comment that said hot dad's of Disneyland so hot that don't let me finish my God hot dad's of did Disneyland acceptable versus MILF which is offensive. So last week's episode was about double standards parenting double standards. Everything about double standards didn't come up. This didn't come up and I was like, I was going through the document that we normally put together like our doc. Yeah. Wow, I'm very proud of you. This is very official and we were like, oh the this is what like, what the fuck Is this hot? Is that a thing? Yes. Oh, there's an Instagram account. That is I don't know if it's called hot dad's of Disneyland It's a thing where it's the photos and Mac are collected of dads annoying. I thought it was a thing that culturally people would say like, you know, that's a not a dilf because that's a weird. That's that's not gonna catch. I have a dope mug at home. You can also if you want we can put that on spreadshirt.com. / dad cash and - Barry, don't worry, don't worry. Shop that spreadshirt.com Dad - and - Barry - anyway, so there's an Instagram account. I believe that's called the hot dad's of Disneyland or dilfs of Disneyland where they take photos of guys who are like wearing their kids or whatever and a good-looking dude. Okay. There's a there used to be a prominent dad blogger who is featured on their not me. I haven't been to Disneyland yet or obviously. I'll be there. Yeah. Yeah, I mean who is this person is account not going to say names are not going to name names walking around Disneyland. Yeah. No. No, I don't know. I don't know if they like get permission. But yeah, I don't look it's the fucking internet. It's the wild west. I know this whole it's fucking Thunder Mountain. Isn't that what they call that our minds of fun? Right? I deserve it. Anyway, I feel like if you were to create account that was called hot moms of Disneyland or MILFs of Disneyland. You'd get some blowback now. That's why I put it in this league. What I initially put it on the on the double standards thing. I wanted to get into sexism. We didn't have enough to know what we should do. We should talk before we do this show. You know, what we're not friends which is the problem which right is to the first question. We're going to get to when we come back from the break. All right episode 30 mailbag grab bag.

The poor thing is this episode 30 which is episode frankly insane. I can't believe we've done 30 episodes. That's a long time more than half a year less than a full year. As I said at the top. I want to thank everybody who's listening to even one. I know if anyone is out there who's listened to all 30, please message us and let us know. I'm very curious. Listen to off 30. You deserve why like a sticker. Stop talking about Sarge. We know we oh, sorry Tokyo you we gonna get you we do. Oh, sorry. We owe a lot. He got two mugs will get it ones in pieces the other one. He's drinking out of right now. I did see the picture I sent it to you. We should post that picture the shitty shipping from what was that was that spreadshirt? But sure but you know what it's the merchandise is fantabulous. They did replace it because they're Champions. Yep, you know, who else is it? Champion Sarge. Yep. He absolutely is. You know, who's not a champion you okay? What a dick thing to say. So I wanted to say so little charmer 80 the first question. We're going to start this whole thing with she asked me when you and Pete first met what were your first impressions of each other and be honest, so I want to see if you remember I think you do. Yeah, I think the first time we met so the way we know each other is I went to high school with our mutual friend Tim right Tim went to college with the woman who became your wife right who later became my wife. So you met Tim through your wife when you were still dating and I had known Tim from high school and then you guys moved to New York, and then I didn't live in New York, so I wasn't part of my friends think it's a great thing. A great way to know each other and then I came to New York because I was trying out for VH1's World Series of pop-culture game show. This is a true. This is a true story. So I came to New York and I'm like, who do I know in New York? Oh my friend Tim. Let's go see Tim. So myself. My friend sued who is on my team. I don't remember if my friend Jeff who's also on my team was there? I don't think so think he knew someone else and he was going to see him and maybe my future wife Heather sutures. Living in New York at the time to just living in New York. I'd yeah, you're right me Heather and Jeff drove down and we met up right so we met up so I think it was like the nolita house or something like that in SoHo not knowingly house it was so it was like the it was on house and somewhere around anyway, so we met and my first impression was it was like you and Tim seem to have like some fucking Vaudeville routine going on you guys were very much like we were going back and forth Abbott and Costello. I was like, this is fucking borderline rehearsed. It's obnoxious. I knew Tim and he has a very much a practiced kind of the song. I'm going to appear to people and you seem to be buying into that very much. Yeah, we got along. Yeah, I asked II don't even remember you guests somehow guest one of the questions that will on the entry we were taught. So I was touring the game shit. I was very interested what that you would come all this way and I didn't yet know that you knew nothing about pop culture. Yeah. So but you had come all this way down and I thought at first it was a joke that you were just joking that you were going to go. On the show. I'm like no. No, I really am and then we're trying to be honest. Okay. Well this guy, holy shit, right, he knows a lot of stuff. This guy's going places. We came close we almost made it so but I did but I I do remember being interested then because it was like, okay. So what's your strategy? I remember asking about your strategy and kind of getting into it and then you were actually really like so this is what we're gonna do. We're gonna do this. Well, I knew this about the like structure I had a Friend who would try it out? So I knew like it started off with a written test and then if everybody on your team, so just to back up for a second. You would actually passed a test to go. This was no you sent an application. Yeah, there's multiple levels to this which I was also interested. So I think you had to send an application with you and your friends. Right? And if you got selected via the application then you had to go in and you sat in a room. This is when we met you before we sat in the room right after application have been selected you sat in a room with like 30 other teams of three. Yeah, and everybody on the team we don't know for sure. But I think everybody on the team had to get a certain amount right and then the combined score had to be certain about to get selected and then you get selected you go into a room and you like a screen test. And if your chemistry is good you get put into like a mini tournament the regional tournament really start dating each other we did. So we made it to the mini tournament and then in the second round of the tournament, we lost a more Community question that I didn't know the answer to we mostly lost because the category selection anyway, Before we took the written test we met with you and you correctly guessed something about Dave Mustaine a question that ended up being on the test. Like who was the lead singer of Megadeth or who left Metallica and started Megadeth? And you said some of them I didn't that doesn't sound like a question. I don't know. It wasn't a question. I don't know how came out but that's what happened. And I was like, I'm beholding to this guy and then I met you again later and I'm like, oh that was a mistake. It's guy kinda sucks it this fucking guy. So then eventually I moved to New York and we were in each other circles and we I didn't know that some people and then it happened. It all happened. Everything happened. It was like two years or three years or longer than that. This is probably what it was. That was like probably like 2003 is yeah your 2005 and then I said many layers have three and five and then Mike and family moved to you had New York. No you just I didn't have family. I just had a wife. Yeah, so I'm AI secret family, but you weren't why did you say that now? My wife knows about it because the one thing that if you Married and you have family that you want to do is have another family. Yeah, you're not ready to best thing I want to do is move to New York City with a family where you can't have any fun like the best of ultimate and then also be married to a secondary family, which is my double family. Yeah, because okay. So that's a little back story on us and how we got episode 30 we get along unbelievably. Well, we know what yeah, and that was it and then the next the foundation of it all chemistry. I didn't make the show. Yep. And we didn't see each other again until Tim's wedding and I'm five years later and then two years later and then you now left to North Carolina for a few years and then came back. You know what people don't need to know about that part either. Why not you talk about it. I'd rather forget that aspect of my my love everybody. No worries. He didn't good enough. So this is the grab bag male black and we got a lot of questions from a lot of different people. Although we got a lot of questions from my handful of people. So some people submitted some people submitted. Tons of questions, right? So quartz Iana Court. Seanna great does we went through this? Okay fine on away if you pronouncing Anna it's fine. It doesn't matter. I don't know that I feel that way but I'll give you only difference would be if you were to say like if pronounce David David a so we tried well, I do as a matter of fact, so we tried to separate this episode in this some categories, but it might get a little loosey-goosey as Pete likes to say and I was like Pete stop saying that it's a strange phrase that nice and comfy cozy Loosey Goosey Loosey Goosey. So the first question courts Diana asks is about parenting. So we have a little parenting says Reese's what do you miss most about your pre dad life. I'm going to leave that one to you Pete. What do you think? Oh, man, you know, what easy walking around em, em, like you just don't give a shit. You know, what's funny like literally walking around. So there are a handful of times since pre dad. So pre dad. There are a handful of times as a distinct memories I have of walking around with my wife. We didn't have the car with your wife. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and it was good. It was a good memory not like a lot of the other ones which are most of the suck. Yeah. Now this is a really fun one where we just walking around the city and we had at that point. We had two kids and they were being taken care of by my parents who took care of this isn't your free dad life though know what I'm talking about. If you have his kids already, it's not pre dead. That's actually a point. Anyway, just Walking around just just honestly walking around. Yeah, like when you able to be like hey Saturdays and Sundays the weekends. We just we would just absolutely Crush we go. What do you want to do? Wake up, I do whatever I do. I don't want how about nothing? What the fuck? No, yeah do that we would do it, but you could do nothing, but we wouldn't you didn't have to get that kids out of the house to burn some energy. We did ever go to goddamn fucking Coney Island when I when I was Child free as they say and even wife free. One of my favorite things to do was and this was when I still live in Boston after college was to like on a Saturday. I know I'm dating myself. I'm gonna go to Tower Records. I'm gonna on a Saturday morning at our records. I'm going to listen to some new albums and maybe I'm going to buy something new just listen to a handful want around do whatever I want. Maybe I could go to get some lunch. Whatever. Guess what I mean. Can you imagine just like my kids can't even go to eat our record deal. I can exist. What do you want to do have to eat? I don't know whatever. I fucking want yeah, let's go drinking. Well, what else? Uh, let's find out. What other what do I miss these? So I want to do great courts, Gianna Gianna. What do I miss most about my pre dad life every fucking thing. That's what it boils down to it. What if she says what's the best part of your dad life besides kids nothing. I mean besides kid. The only benefit of being a dad is having the kids. I love my kids. They're great if I didn't have kids and I was still had like a dad lifestyle. This fucking nothing there. What do you mean? I'm tethered. It's like having a shitty dog. Who sucks that I'm not any good dog. I love dogs. It's like having a shitty dog. You have to go home. You have to be there. What is there? That's out of the question. Even me. Excuse me. The best part of dad life is looking down on non dads and being like shut the fuck up. Yeah you and someone can you don't understand shit? Yes. I like it. You don't even know what hell is like for kids. Guess what? I've 9. Yeah, and that's what you do to me all the time. You have to I have three cats. What and don't blame me for your bad decisions, you know what the best decision I ever made was the ability to look down my nose at other peoples by having three kids and just simply judge away. I don't know that it's worth it. I don't know this worth it. I know it's best decision. I ever made up inside and as he's ever made the start in this podcast with my friend Pete. Look at you you Beautiful Beautiful Bastard, of course, he on his last question, although I don't know maybe she comes back around. She asked a lot of shit. What is one thing you didn't? / realized what happened when you became a parent. Oh, what would happen What would happen? Oh for real for me, the realization realities at four months or five months of your first kit. Yeah, the realization that so past that first like glow like I got this and it or maybe when it started to go into like I want to see like six months or whatever is like, holy shit. This is for really forever. This is all right. You were like long time. You're like, oh, that's a fun. Mark let's have a kid and you realize and then you're like I'm a Tethered to this. I'm a cool guy being for the rest of the island the kid starts from crawling and walking around you a cold. It changes your brain. Yeah. What is about to happen o 3 years of No, Sleep Tight not three. Forever of no sleep. No. No, we taped the other ones. So been teeny 80 how many nights is it? Okay for parents to have a drink, please say seven 100% look if you don't drink that's fine. If you're if you can't drink anymore, that's fine. If you need a drink or take the edge off, that's fine. Do we got to do everything in moderation unless you want to get drunk and then fucking go nuts. Yeah. I mean it was I drink seven nights a week. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie. I don't get drunk seven nights a week. I have to take I take off a couple months just in the yeah, you do that that weird January February March thing A lot of people do that. I don't know it's not because you're worried about your intake. You're just trying to lose weight not yeah that and just also give them get my fucking body a break from drinking see. Yeah, that would be good idea. I haven't done that yet. I should little Tremor 80 would either of you have more kids parentheses. I think I know the answer you do know the answer. Do you know what? This is going to fucking blow my mind you would. They're yeah, I would so can I just say the difference between having one kit know? I like I know what you're saying. No kid from want to get it ready in 3 to 4 is 100% Your fucking life is from one kid to to kid. You're like, oh I got this. No. No, it's another 100 percent life flip upside down. Well, you didn't even think there was another one person. It's you have time so I know you're going to say I have a counter going already going to three kids was like 8 percent. It was like I'm going to the Already at six o'clock in the morning. Is that what's changes? My life is Hell already exactly and then the the next one but at the end of the day, I mean I wouldn't but I wouldn't if I have the question is means maybe it's not about it's not about how adding one changes it's about starting over with one and like you're five years in your past the diapers your pass all that shit starting over with a baby now. Can I say something that's also going to be really annoying to this audience. I'm already annoyed the law. Not my youngest my son. Who's our youngest is Drive. He's five. I enjoyed almost that experience better than I enjoyed the first two and that's the cause you're a veteran. Well, that's it. And I feel yeah, that's it. I just was like, that's why I think that would not be the only reason so now you're like if I have another one, maybe I'll like that young stage or even more what it takes two years before you get to any Goods with a baby or you I have no I know but I but all of that being factored in with my youngest like it was way it all seemed to have clicked in a way that it didn't with the first because the first two you're trying to fend them off you're playing of you go from Zone to a man on man. You don't know what the hell I would like it would either of you have more kids. I would like to answer for myself for the record. No, I will not I don't want to ginja ninja nine nine nine. I like that name ginja ninja I assume she's a redheaded Ninja Warrior. Yeah, and then what's the most difficult thing even? I counted about being a stay-at-home dad. I assume that's for me since you're gainfully employed and I am a stay-at-home dad. The most difficult thing is doing things of any kind. I'm not good at it. I'm not motivated. It's hard to get out of the house. So when you were single you just wouldn't do anything that that's know when I was single. I didn't have to fucking pack a bag with diapers and wipes and food and snacks and milk and load somebody in the car seat to go grocery shopping. Right and I If I was single, I'm not bringing someone to a playground to watch them swing would you if I'm single I'm getting on the swings myself and having the time of my life at the dance. It's what would you just stay home and watch the like, would you just like to like watch TV all the time or what? I mean, I would watch TV a lot sure not at all the time. I just talked about how we go to Tower Records and listen to music, but when I was single by myself, yeah, I could if I wanted to and everybody keep going stir-crazy exactly did whatever I wanted. It's difficult for me because being a stay-at-home dad is not my choice, right? I would rather have a job and it's not like me and my wife were like, all right, let me I'll work and you be a stay-at-home dad. Like I want to have a job we both do at this point. So it's not necessarily intentional if you got a job with Mom and buried continue to have her job. Yeah, at least for a while, you know, we need to we need the income and need the money meaning from like she's cool with working as well as he It's working. She likes having a job people, you know, whether you know, if it was within it within our means for us to kind of find some kind of flexibility with our jobs maybe but she much would much prefer to be home with the kids and I I see Christina and Valentine said, do you regret having more than one kid? I I do think so. I had a five-year gap between my first and my second and having five years of just one kid, and then suddenly having to is jarring, but I love My second kid so much that it's like I could never say regret like yeah, but but yeah, I mean my life with one kid was a lot easier and sometimes I'm like kind of wish we had stopped but I love my second kid so much. I would never think that 0 good know. I love having three I like, you know, I was a little bit more honest City staff for Nami dad guilt. Does it exist? I think it exists. I think it's a little bit different right? My guilt is more like if I fly off the handle or if I'm not doing enough for a man being a To my kids I feel bad about how I behave towards them. Mom guilt. I think is it kind of a little bit of a different Beast. So because of society for me, it's a little different. I really have put myself in a very stupid position, which is as a grill income provider is the worst thing you could possibly be angry at this time. I've all I think about is just making sure that my like they have enough I can yeah, I can I can write So you're guilty about like I'm not working enough. I'm not bringing enough home, but I have no I feel I'm unemployed. No, I know but feeling that way. Yeah, I think I think the mom guilt there's Dad go but it's on different lines. No, but yeah, I mean, I think I for me it definitely is the provider concept is as being a dad is heavy the provider concept. Yeah, that is provider chauvinist. Okay. So now we guess it's some people ask for some advice you chauvinist been teeny 80 Again, she is all over God. Yes, a lot of questions. Let's hear it says what's the best piece of advice for new parents? You have this locked down do I? Yes, do not join any racist group. That's true. Don't you join racist group said that more than one time. It's a great piece of advice for you whether you're a parent and I you didn't get it. You were like now I know it seems like a good idea but not when you're a new parent. It doesn't my best piece of advice for my pest piece of advice for new parents. It's I think is calm down. Right like parents have been having kids people have been having kids for thousands of years and they've survived like we get so anxious over so much shit, right? Oh my God, I got a fucking make sure my kid is eating. Guess what? Our next episode is about old like how our parents used to parent results and I think they were less anxious than we are. Right. So like If you're worried about whether your kid is eating enough guess what your kids not fucking going to starve if you're worried about oh, it's taking too long to potty train my kid the odds of your kid being in a diaper and high school or fucking slim. It's gonna happen, right? It might not happen to the timetable you want but it's going to happen. Like I think we get worked up about competing in Milestones. I think we just need to calm down. Are you Pro diaper in high school? Or you conned I'm saying it's not going to happen. I'm saying we get really nervous like all of his our kid going to be this kid who can't do this when the kid is too Three or five most of that shit is going to work itself out. Also, if you are a kid who's in high school, you have a diaper just lean into a drink a lot of beer me a man started histogram Channel you like John Belushi John Belushi guys, really know Jim is a shitty brother. John is the original this guy fucking Nate the millennial thinks Jim Belushi is the fucking key Belushi canine. He's like canine is the key text for the Belushi. A family, you know what Nate? No, I was right. I just was questioning by South. All right best way to deal with the toddler tantrum in public 1980 again, freak out freak the fuck out on the child just start immediately going threatening them physically you are being facetious way to deal with my favorite way perfectly my favorite ways to fucking walk away. Yeah. Guess what now? You're in the fucking there's a spotlight on you in the middle of the aisle of Target and I walked over. The fucking other I love Target and one of the aisles called toy while I went into the Vintage t-shirt. I want to get one of my hot ass t-shirts that everybody likes so much Pete. Hey, guess what now, you're standing there alone throwing a fit. They will follow you right through but I do think cold-shoulder it fuck those guys walk away. I love it. Let them fucking Peter out. Look, you gotta deal with some some busy bodies as they say to they still say that this day and age. Anybody who might be like, oh, you're being a shitty parent. You know, what fuck you Karen? You don't know my life. I mean you kind of do and you sort of nailed me Karen, but at the same time just go ask for the manager something. So Blitz afer's underscore human as an interesting question here. What do you do when the other parent I assume meaning? Your spouse is stressed about the same thing try and be positive I deal with like so so Mom and buried and I'm at Mom and buried Instagram has her own following We're under a lot of stress right now. Like I'm unemployed. We don't have enough income. We have a lot of issues where our kids have my eldest son has ADHD May youngest has a speech delay. She's going back to work. She has Ms. We got a lot of shit going on. Yeah, you try to support each other and be positive but I think when you're both stressed about the same thing that can be problematic because you're trying to lean on each other, but when you're both overwhelmed that can be a tough thing to do. I don't know if you have any advice on this one Pete. Yeah, I mean. I tend to be more just calm and you know, like take things in stride like big things too. Funny big things don't stress me out even even like so when I when you say when the other parent is stressed out about the same thing, I'm assuming you're talking about the bigger things. Yeah. Yeah, not like the is a kid going to eat or not or you know like that. Look, what do we do about the school play this week. Are we going to manage it? That'll be fine. Everything is We got it. Don't worry. It's going to be okay. Sometimes it's a tight tight rope because sometimes that's can be just kind of being like, yeah, don't worry about it. Don't worry about don't sweat the small stuff. But ultimately. Yeah, I'm always just kind of more like will be me kill your you don't have any what you're saying is you don't have any. Yeah. Thanks a lot of tribute a lot of the time I think is what I'm gathering a lot of the time I'm like, so what are you talking about? Like, yeah. Yes, you know it's not even on your radar. But I know what he's saying when you're stressed about the same thing. Yeah, you're saying I'm not stressed about the same things as her. That's what you so we've had some we've had some like our house was destroyed. Yeah. I remember can I mention the cause of it now, but it right and we basically, you know, I had to you know contain my wife from like right? Well, that's the Trevor right? You're both stressed and you Like you're both stress about the same thing. One of you is reacting more strongly than the other that's hot Hanna that's more what I was talking I deal with this with my wife where like she stresses out and she wants to dump her stress on me. And what I'm doing is I'm trying to hold my stress at Bay and when she dumps it on me, like that's a stress relief for her. But all it does is make it worse for me. Yeah. No, but it's the killer cycle I'm saying that's my role right? It's the take it. Yeah. Yeah the punching me. It's my role to but sometimes it's not I'm not I can't handle it. Sometimes is too. Much. So what we're saying Blitz average human is we don't know your fire. Yeah, James Larson 470 hardest part of parenting. That's a very broad question. But I'm going to say philosophically. I think the hardest thing about parenting for me is maintaining consistency feel like being consistent with your kids, whether it's bed time whether it's screen time, whether it's how you handled their discipline all that stuff. If you have a track record of kind of doing the same thing all the time with all the kids that goes a long Way and they expect it and them having the security of knowing what to expect is great. If if sometimes you let them closely but sometimes you don't and sometimes you give this, you know, some of you don't all that shit is all over the place that causes problems. I'm not consistent at all, which is where the route a lot of my problems are. That's the hardest thing for me is I feel like if we had if we estándar dies how we treat everything and you we responded everything the same every time we'd be in great shape, but I struggle with that. What about you? I think it's so similar but a little bit different. I think the hardest part for me is being on the same. Is my wife when it comes to things like that, so, you know, she look at a situation differently and in some cases, I feel that it can it tends to like depend. So if someone's not eating it's like you see Shades of Gray no other way around I'm talking about my way and I feel that my wife's more group Shades of Gray. So someone's acting you know, I'm a big kind of like hey, if you're like being a jerk, then you're going to get treated like a jerk kind of thing. Whereas my wife would be like, well, she's Tired or he's tired. So don't worry. Yeah same with me. How are we gonna know right every time you're not sometimes it's okay and I'll have come home out of the not their fault. They have this yours and you're never going to know I'll never know and then the other thing that's hard about parenting with someone else is sometimes they've already snapped and you have any yeah. Oh that's really for me. The hardest part is is just no understanding that the consistency thing I got And the dynamic with your spouse those people are things difficult for you. Everything's I'm always kind of like a mildly even Keel. Mildly grumpy D me. I don't like that part. It's annoying and I've been working actually that's kind of something I'm working on. So mmm Marissa's Thompson, which is 3M mrs. Thompson, and he potty training tips. You know, what know my my toddler shit on the floor a couple of days ago. You got a key shit on the floor a couple of days ago. So now I don't have any tips. I'm trying to get a handle on it. We were a little delayed with him because of the speech stuff and other stuff that we had going on. But now I'm definitely like every time I put them on there. I'm like the fucking just Jam this out my man. Yeah. We yeah consistency is important that she is key. I think if they the second they have a sign for potty. You know, you just you sit there. Yeah, because what will happen is sometimes they'll make they'll be dancing or whatever. They'll like me grabbing the crotch and then you like. Okay. Let's go to the potty. And then we'll be like I don't have to go. I don't even give a shit about number one and number two. I'm concerned about number one. We got down pass and number two where and sometimes you know, there's like times like they'll be times during the day where you know that they'll go behind the curtain, you know, the yeah, it looks like yeah our Shame by their bowel you like if you make is like that sometimes he's ashamed by his bowels. I will need that's what that's what need to sometimes they will sometimes hide behind the curtain over there and just heard so abhilash 18 said do you like the age gap between In your kids, what's the ideal age gap for siblings? So you have more of a standard age Gap where you have so my my two girls are two and a half years apart and then your and then fun and it's five years between oh no, it's not ya know. It's eight and five. So three different three between your next two kids. I have a night and will be 9 in in three weeks and a three and a half year old. So that's a five-and-a-half-year gap, which is a little bit less typical. Mostly, it's like two or three years between your kids. I'll say this if you can communicate to one of your kids while you have a brand-new baby. That's a big dip. That was huge. That's what I'm saying. Like you can be like if talking to a two-year-old is way different self-sufficiency and having a five-year-old when a baby was running, please go and he can understand go do this go watch TV. Go whatever we gotta change the baby or do whatever huge that's the challenges when that kid is in college. I'm going to have a you know, a thirteen-year-old there, you know, and I'm still you just behind right so, I don't know that they're I do like I did like the age Gap the Rivalry is starting to rear its head now that there's like the three and a half year old is old enough now that you can wrestle he wants appreciation. He yeah, he wants more attention. He's arguing for attention. Same toys video games. He can wrestle all that stuff. I don't know if there's an ideal it's different for everybody. I would again the being able to communicate in a way without having to pick them like if they can walk. Can be able to dress themselves big but you still didn't do that though. You didn't have a five-year Gap in order to benefit from that. No, but but my oldest was able to take care of you have three. So you have other problems maeglin Jensen says she tore her ACL two weeks ago and is having surgery soon and she has two kids and it sucks any injuries for you with kids. I haven't had any my wife Twisted her ankle really badly two years ago. And then last year did the same thing on a Like a trampoline park with my kids was on crutches both times. It was in a boot for one of them. Yeah, that's very problematic. I was still working at the time. So like her dealing with the kids tough that happen to you. Yeah, I have not been injured except for of course when I for slept on my shoulder and I tore my ACL there's 40. That's what happens. Yeah, just like immediately like just destroyed my shoulder by sleeping. I cool. No, but My wife yeah again, my wife had some if my wife ever their foot is hobbling around not easy to handle kids, especially if they're young. I don't know Megan just don't know how young your two kids are but also over the toddler when you're got it so can't keep up with that kid this point also having to deal with just the whole home situations tough when you're at work having kids in general sex, whether you're injured or not smell so our Doritos and acceptable toddler dinner on occasion 100% 100% Fed is best. Hashtag fetish best. You keep you keep saying that I think it's back is best when you put your talk, like when you put a baby to bed. It's back is not but fed is there can't be two Federal best is about if there's an argument over whether you know, listen to me like you're not on social media. It's a hashtag. It's when people argue over whether you should breastfeed or bottle feed the people who are like fuck you it doesn't matter as long as the kid is eating hashtag fat is bad, but I think that's men it's fall. So if somebody's a Federer fan this is Nell. Exactly. But that's right. Yeah, the FED is the best Alan Greenspan's really now look he was my favorite. I don't know where you stand stand firmly. So but I think the FED is best is specifically about bottle forces like breastfeeding breastfeeding. Yeah, but you said you didn't know what it was but that's different from burritos and develop. All right. Here's the legend. What do you do when your kid is overly sick and won't take the meds the doctor prescribes. He wants to be a good dad. But he doesn't want to seem like he's forcing meds down a kid's throat. Like he's in a psych ward like he's fucking nurse ratchet shit. Well, listen, if they if they have like antibiotics or the you know rarely or hopefully, they won't prescribe antibiotics too often. But if they do and your kids super You got it. They have to take it right well, and so sometimes those pills can be big and you just got to be like nah, it's Sarge get a suppository and fucking man. Let's get some gloves. What if you need to show the kid how it's done Ike Leggett a suppository and just go to YouTube and be like it here it is and they get a little you do a full thing 10 times and they get a tiny little ittle bit of it every time and it's a nightmare and it sucks or you most people put in a pacifier poke a hole in it. Most prescription for kids are like liquid. However, once your kids starts getting older they say it can come in pill form and if they're not used to taking pills, you gotta it takes a long time to get your treat them like dogs, you grind it up you put it in their food and then they don't eat the food and then you get angry and then the kid is still sick and it's just infuriating. They're both angry and they're sick and they loved the dog you didn't and the dog is eating the kids medicine. Then you're like is this a problem? I don't know as long as it's not chocolate. Why is this spider legs coming out of my dog's spider legs the thing look it up and we'll get into that later. All right. So Sarge also wants to know what age do kids give up naps. Can I say my three-and-a-half-year-old? He he he won't nap, but he still needs a nap. So like I can't nap am every day today. I put him in his crib because it used to be a daybed and we put the crib thing back up and he just climbs out of it wouldn't take the nap except at five o'clock every day. He fucking passes out and when your kid goes to bed at five it fucks you because he's gonna sleep in hit me up later. You know, you wake him up. No. Yeah. Yeah, keep it up and you put him to bed at 6 o'clock 100 percent. No, he will not sleep through the night. He'll get up at 3 and I'll be up he will be up what a son of a bitch. So he still needs a nap. He won't take it anymore were in the transition phase every kid is different. Some people say their kid gives up an apple. What you what time do you go to bed? Eight, he still gets up at 6:00 every day. I try to give him that movie. So I we go a shifted it to every other day pot. So you put them to bed at 6, we get up a file we put them to bed put them to bed at fucking six. He'll get up at 2:00 in the morning. We put them right at 80 gets up at 6:00. But so we've got rid of the nap except for like we try to do the every other day thing, but it's really hard to get him to nap. He's too much for fucking person. Right? He's like, I'm gonna do what I want. He climbs out of the crib is uncontrollable. You try to like put them down and leave them a lock the door that doesn't work and then he but he's still too tired to really function without a nap at least two days in a row and he's a monster by the end of the day. It really sucks. So, I don't know Sergeant I got nothing for you. You know what I bet. This is an advice podcast started, you know better you been listening from day one, right? So some a couple of New York City questions Surly Contreras be honest. Do you think you're cooler than everyone else because you live in New York City? Yes, definitely you 100% Yeah, we are cooler. I'm drowning in debt and it has been for my family. But yeah, there's a certain cachet that comes with living in New York. And in Brooklyn. Yeah fact, where do you live Sara Lee? It's good point.

It's been teeny 80 do your kids go to private or public schools public fucking publi percent. All right, come on have time for this. All right, so we got a couple of questions that were for each of us, right? So I want to get into this one real quick. Check your kids at the door finding me in Macau check him out Instagram. Do you get annoyed mom and buried his riding your coattails and Instagram now? Oh my God, check your kids at the door. That's like a fucking softball. Do I get annoyed that Mom and buried his riding my coattails. Is no you know what I'm proud that she has carved out her own little corner of the web what I get annoyed at when I get annoyed at is when my friends Nate and Pete here are like wow, what is she? Oh, oh, oh almost 40,000 in just 6 months. Yeah. Guess what? Yeah. I got in trouble that and all my followers are going over to her. Right. Guess what? How about this? She doesn't take my last name when we get married, but she takes fucking buried in a split second. All right, you know what? Yeah, it does that so we have two kids but I boom I feel so no ideogram know what to answer that. No, I don't and I got a strike the rest of that from the record. Yeah. No my little charmer 80 have any crazy fans tried to stalk. Mike know I've been recognized maybe three or four times twice. Locally which is weird because International a lot of people don't understand like they don't necessarily see that I'm in Brooklyn or they don't check my bio or whatever. So I get a lot of questions. Like where are you from and always surprised that you can just look it says Brooklyn New York somebody in the playground of the shh mentee family, which is Jimmy and Felicia. They have recognized me in public and they are probably as close as it gets to stalkers. It's fairly unsettling. They're all up in my grill all the time. Those your only friends that you have there. Not friends, but yes, they're not actually friends with yes. I got recognized once in Pennsylvania when I was on vacation and once in DC but the person in DC didn't tell me about it till after the fact which is almost more weird. I saw you but I've never been stopped eating ice cream. You looked good Miss connection. Alright, so the mrs. Mommy says, how did you come up with the name dead and buried besides the obvious. There is no besides the obvious. It's just the obvious. It's a play on dead and buried yeah because I have kids in it.
