that you wanted to particularly talk about? 463 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,960 - So I think, gosh, I was just throwing through. 464 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,880 One that stands out to me because we ended up having 465 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:10,320 this guest on a few, three times maybe? 466 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,160 - I think three, yeah. 467 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,560 - Three times because the story kept, 468 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,680 their story kept unfolding. 469 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:17,520 - Yes. 470 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:18,360 - And that was the exciting part 471 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,680 and it's some of the most listened to episodes 472 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:21,520 that we've ever had. 473 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:25,600 - And we got to be a part of experiencing that story, 474 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,480 but also helping tell that story and documenting it 475 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,680 for those coming back to listen later. 476 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,520 - That's exactly right. 477 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,600 So we, all in all, just to say, 478 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,200 it was one of the, it has been one of the great honors 479 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,320 of this show to have the conversation with Ted Love. 480 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,600 That first, back in July of 2019, 481 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,800 we did a show with him, 482 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,720 a journey to finding his father 483 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:56,720 and it was just the beginning of him on the search. 484 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,200 And then he and his dad connected 485 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:00,760 and then there were other family members 486 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,280 that he came to know about, including a brother. 487 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:09,280 And so I just love, I love everything about it. 488 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:14,280 And I, like you said, we were able to kind of document this. 489 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:19,280 He was able to share the show with his family members. 490 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,040 So like it was like a thing, he was able to give them 491 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,440 and say like, here's the story, here's where I've been. 492 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,880 You can listen to this and then we can kind of like follow up 493 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,800 afterwards and just a really, really great honor. 494 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:35,560 So I think back to, it's yes, Clarence 495 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,280 and talking about the absence of the father. 496 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,360 Ted's story was a little bit of an absence, 497 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,920 an absence, then a finding of his father. 498 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:44,440 - Right, later in life. 499 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,040 - Much later in life, no offense, Ted, but we're not calling, 500 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:47,960 we're not calling you old. 501 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:52,960 But much later, after years of searching and just, man, 502 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,880 yeah, processing all of those things, 503 00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:01,360 but that one sticks out to me just because of the way 504 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,120 it kind of unfolded and we were able to walk along 505 00:17:04,120 --> 00:17:04,960 on the journey. 506 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,520 I think that's meant a lot to me personally. 507 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,160 - Yeah, and then, so we, you had mentioned 508 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,240 that we had started out in the Avad Chiropractic Clinic. 509 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:16,520 It's fair day cage, if you will. 510 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,640 - The conference fair day cage. 511 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:19,640 - The fair day cage. 512 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,400 But then we quickly, actually before the first season was up, 513 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,680 we actually moved over to, I was helping out kind of 514 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:30,080 run in the evenings, a church a little bit 515 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,600 that was kind of starting up and trying some things. 516 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,600 And they had an older church building 517 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:34,440 that they were a part of. 518 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,480 And we were able to, thanks to John and Sheila Troyer, 519 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,800 we were able to take a room in there. 520 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,080 We didn't make a Vad Chiropractic mat or anything. 521 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,440 We just, that space wasn't gonna fit us anymore 522 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,120 because we had to set up and tear down every night 523 00:17:48,120 --> 00:17:48,960 that we were gonna do it. 524 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:50,880 And so it was a lot of work for me 525 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,320 to get everything set up right. 526 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,520 And so I had, we had, we moved over to this room 527 00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:00,440 in the basement of the church, Second Acts. 528 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,760 And we were there for just a short amount of time, 529 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,680 but we did, we do wanna thank John and Sheila 530 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,520 for letting us use that space. 531 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:13,160 - Yeah, that was, again, I just, I love, 532 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,880 it was a very punk rock approach to the podcast. 533 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,400 Yeah. 534 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:24,080 If you guys could have seen, 535 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,800 because we were starting to, 536 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,800 Andy was doing some video, you were doing some video. 537 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,640 - Yeah, we started doing video, I think in that room. 538 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,840 - And the lighting, we had to figure out a lighting situation 539 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:38,240 because the lighting wasn't great. 540 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,880 And so we had, we had these photography light boxes 541 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,760 that we put up in there that were barely able 542 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,320 to fit in the room if I remember correctly. 543 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,080 - Right, the room was small to begin with. 544 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,800 - Yeah, so it was just, it was fun. 545 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,520 - Yes, fun. 546 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,440 So moving on to season two, 547 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:02,800 this is where we met more new people. 548 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:07,520 We talked with, one of the first things that we did 549 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,720 is we came to know that there was a group, a group, 550 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,600 two people, Mark, Hyde and Chris Fuller 551 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,160 from the Real Talk Christian podcast 552 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,440 that they liked our work and we liked their work. 553 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,080 And so we invited, we basically did an episode swap. 554 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,000 Like we came on their show and they came on our show 555 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,200 and we talked a bunch of different things, 556 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,080 father related and just Christian related. 557 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,600 And that was fun. 558 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,680 We also talked with my cousin Corey, 559 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:40,600 who was dealing, had recently dealt with the death 560 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:41,920 of his dad. 561 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:46,200 And so we were talking about death, grief and mental health. 562 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,920 And so that was one of my favorite ones too, 563 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,160 'cause it was another one of those episodes 564 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,080 that was raw and real. 565 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:59,080 - And we got like, gosh, that's one of the, 566 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,800 again, another reason why I love this show is that we've, 567 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:08,880 I mean, I just remember that conversation. 568 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,920 I remember everything leading up to it. 569 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,080 And there have been times, Andy, 570 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,560 where we have thought like, 571 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:19,680 we have someone's close to us that has gone through a loss 572 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,880 or gone through something pretty traumatic or whatever. 573 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,880 And there's always this fine line, 574 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,280 I feel like we're walking of, 575 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,600 I would love them to be on the show when they're ready 576 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,280 or when they've processed to a point 577 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,400 where I can talk about something like that. 578 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,000 And yet, I think just some of the courage 579 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,800 that we've seen from our guests saying, 580 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:45,480 in my season of loss and the sudden, 581 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:46,720 Corey just lost his dad. 582 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,680 So, I mean, so, no warning so quickly. 583 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,480 And being able to, after some time had passed, 584 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:54,440 being able to come on and talk. 585 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,560 So I think just so beautifully about that. 586 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,960 That's one of the reasons I love this show 587 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,480 is that we get to have a place for that. 588 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,200 - Well, and I think it's been really cool too. 589 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,240 We've heard numerous times 590 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,080 and I'm not gonna specifically name the episodes 591 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,920 'cause it's really literally has been, 592 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,840 I mean, we've done, I don't know, 593 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,160 maybe a hundred or so episodes total. 594 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:18,120 So I can't say every one of them. 595 00:21:18,120 --> 00:21:20,520 But we've heard so many times 596 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,640 that our listeners have really connected 597 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,520 with a specific episode, whether it be whatever it is, 598 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,440 like they've really connected with it 599 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,800 and really been able to process some things 600 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,520 that's going on on their own, 601 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,200 as well as just resonating with the stories 602 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:39,320 of the guests that we told. 603 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,600 And I think that's really our goal. 604 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:42,560 That was our goal to begin with, 605 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,320 is just to build community. 606 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,240 And I mean, the tagline is building community 607 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,000 through meaningful conversations and storytelling. 608 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,480 And that's really what we've done. 609 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,880 We've been able to bring the people that we've known, 610 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,120 that we know that have good stories 611 00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:02,720 and allow them to be able to tell those stories 612 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:03,840 and just connect. 613 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,160 And every time I hear somebody tell me your episode 614 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,120 or this episode has really specifically connected with me, 615 00:22:10,120 --> 00:22:11,200 it touches me. 616 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,360 - Oh yeah. - It gets me every time. 617 00:22:13,360 --> 00:22:14,680 - 100%. 618 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,280 I was thinking that second season, 619 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,720 Andy our interview with a friend of mine, Joe Rudy, 620 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:25,280 who, you know, he, again, 621 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:30,000 these stories where he's a youth pastor for a kid 622 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,280 who's involved in the school shooting. 623 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:37,280 And a reminder that when we're talking about dudes 624 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:42,080 and dad stuff, it's also, you know, building this community. 625 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:46,760 It's a community of people also who see their responsibility 626 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,840 outside their immediate family, right? 627 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,800 This community impact that they have, 628 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:57,800 that they have gifts and talents to bring to their community 629 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,920 and that they're thinking very strategically about that. 630 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:05,720 I think Joe is just an amazing, amazing example, 631 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,640 even really we should have him back on 632 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,040 'cause he's done some pretty cool things even since then. 633 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,200 I just think that's just another example 634 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,480 of kind of what our community is about. 635 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:23,280 'Cause we hope that you hear people that, like, 636 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,400 inspire you to engage in a new way, to think, 637 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,400 man, what gifts and abilities do I have 638 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:28,560 that I'm just kind of sitting on 639 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,360 and that I could be doing something else? 640 00:23:30,360 --> 00:23:32,800 So that's one for me on season two 641 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,480 that just kind of like, I think, checked a few boxes. 642 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,680 - Right, I think for me, one more, I think probably, 643 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,280 at least from this season was the Gilmachel one. 644 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,320 We were talking about racial reconciliation in our country 645 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:49,200 and that really opened my eyes up to hear Gil talk about 646 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,520 stories of just how he was pulled over and interrogated 647 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,200 when just really for being black. 648 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:57,040 - Yeah. 649 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,120 - And like, as a white guy, 650 00:23:59,120 --> 00:24:01,400 that really opened my eyes up to things 651 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,080 that are still going on in our country. 652 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:08,080 So that was a good episode for me on season two. 653 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:12,600 - Yep, and yeah, I'm into another advantage of this show. 654 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,520 Like, we get to engage with people 655 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:16,920 that are in different life circumstances 656 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,480 than us that come from different backgrounds. 657 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:23,080 And really, yeah, I think it just brings a lot of clarity. 658 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:27,360 And then, well, gosh, I'm just, 659 00:24:27,360 --> 00:24:29,120 I'm right now, I'm just, 660 00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:31,680 I'm scrolling through all these episodes. 661 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,720 It's like, oh my gosh. 662 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,360 - Another one that we talked about 663 00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:36,520 is pregnancy and infant loss. 664 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:40,320 And that was me telling my story of our daughter 665 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:41,280 and our loss of our daughter. 666 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,120 And that, yeah, I'm gonna cry here. 667 00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:46,400 But that was a really good episode. 668 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:47,840 And it was good therapeutic for me 669 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,880 to be able to get that out and talk about that. 670 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:51,880 Yeah. 671 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,400 - And to sort of set a cadence, I think, 672 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,200 for something of the show, 673 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:58,480 kind of one of our causes, 674 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,680 one of the things that we care about. 675 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:07,560 Just the grief and loss community that's out there. 676 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,480 Like being able to take a really, 677 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,760 yeah, I mean, take a real but positive approach 678 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,640 to engaging that with that community. 679 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,640 And I don't know how you've thought about it. 680 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:25,320 Sometimes, Andy, I go like, gosh, 681 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,320 we talk about a lot of things that are hard, right? 682 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,000 And there can be some negative connotation to them 683 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,120 or whatever. 684 00:25:33,120 --> 00:25:34,920 And I don't think we've, 685 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,800 I really don't think that we've kind of just wallowed 686 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:39,960 and pity and sorrow in the show. 687 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,520 But we have called hard things, hard things. 688 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,800 And hopefully, it's given hope. 689 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:53,200 The thing that we've said again and again on the show 690 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,880 is like, Andy and I were not interested in doing 691 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:57,760 a Christian podcast. 692 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,640 Like that was not our game plan at the set. 693 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,960 And for those that do, God bless you. 694 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,000 That nothing against that. 695 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,200 It was for us, I had this conviction. 696 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,480 And I know that Andy shares where it was like, 697 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,560 what would it be like if two Jesus followers 698 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,640 just did a podcast and then like, 699 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,480 whatever flowed out of that, flowed out of that. 700 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,520 And so that is the show. 701 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:24,360 That is the show. 702 00:26:24,360 --> 00:26:25,200 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 703 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,480 So it's like, yeah, that is part of the conversation. 704 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,960 That's always, it's our operating system in the background. 705 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,040 And then, you know, but when we talk about loss 706 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:38,040 and we talk about why we have the hope that we have, 707 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:44,560 you know, we make no mistake about it. 708 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,360 We'd firmly, firmly rooted in Jesus. 709 00:26:47,360 --> 00:26:50,280 Like that is 110% the case. 710 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,800 But, you know, we didn't come with some, 711 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:59,560 yeah, religious billboard that we're flying all around here. 712 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,840 It's just, this is our lives. 713 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,040 And, you know, a lot of the people that we talk to 714 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,480 share some similar background to that, others, 715 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,200 but not all of them do. 716 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:14,160 And that's also been an interesting, I think, dynamic. 717 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,520 It's a dynamic that I think you and I, Andy, 718 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,280 both are trying to live more and more to, 719 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:23,880 in terms of who we're interacting in our daily lives 720 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,000 and the fact that it's not just people of faith 721 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:31,600 that need community or fathers or dads, 722 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,720 dudes and dads that need to know there's a group 723 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,720 of other guys out there going through the same thing. 724 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,640 So I just, that's kind of another, you know, 725 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,120 another dynamic that's been kind of playing out 726 00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:44,160 since the early days. 727 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,800 And I think we've stayed pretty, pretty true to it. 728 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:48,760 So, yeah. 729 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:52,560 So do you have any other episodes from season two? 730 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:53,680 If not, we're moving to season three. 731 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:54,800 Season three, here we go. 732 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:59,080 So season three was the first time that we had a sponsor 733 00:27:59,080 --> 00:27:59,920 for the show. 734 00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:00,760 We had it. 735 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:01,600 We got it. 736 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:02,440 Concrete Barber. 737 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:03,280 Oh, yes. 738 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,840 We thank you, DJ, for those. 739 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,440 Thanks for believing on us early on. 740 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:10,280 We appreciate that. 741 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,480 DJ reached out to us. 742 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,720 It was a match made in heaven. 743 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,240 I'll just say that right when we get go. 744 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:20,720 Cause Andy and I, excuse me, Andy and I were both very into, 745 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:21,720 we needed a barber. 746 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:22,840 We both needed a barber. 747 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,880 So that was, that was a good connection. 748 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:25,840 Keeps our beards looking sharp. 749 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:26,760 That's right. 750 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,080 Cause we, we, we were struggling in that department. 751 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,160 You know, every once in a while it got so out of control. 752 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:33,560 We thought we only had one of two options. 753 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,200 It was shave the whole thing off and start over again, 754 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,640 or just completely neglect our, our facial hair wellbeing. 755 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,720 And a new world was, we were entered into a new world. 756 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:43,960 And so we're, we're grateful for that. 757 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:44,800 Yeah. Yeah. We are. 758 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:50,320 Number one, but number two, just the fact that there was somebody 759 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,280 who was willing to put resources behind us and say, 760 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:54,280 I believe in what you're doing. 761 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:55,760 Well, and we've, we've had from the beginning, 762 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,080 Patreon supporters and we, we appreciate that. 763 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,120 Cause obviously like corporate sponsorship doesn't, 764 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:02,720 doesn't cover all of our costs. 765 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:07,200 And so we, we, we also appreciate all of the people who have joined us 766 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,360 along the years who have come along and said, 767 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:10,600 Hey, we believe in you. 768 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,120 We're just, you know, a regular old Joe, 769 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:14,800 but we want to support you with, you know, 770 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,320 $5 a month or whatever.

So, 778 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,400 tell me more, Andy. 779 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,320 We had been dudesanddadspodcast.com, 780 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,560 but I acquired dudesanddads.com this last week. 781 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:39,200 Okay. Can I just ask you, 782 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:40,720 cause I didn't ask you about this earlier. 783 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,240 So have you just been checking in on the URL periodically 784 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:45,360 to see when it goes open? 785 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,760 As an IT guy, I'm always looking for different URLs. 786 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,680 Keeps the radar up. Beautiful. 787 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:54,400 Season three though, brought a theme. 788 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:55,680 It seemed like a theme to the show. 789 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,200 Oh, because we had at least two, 790 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,520 but I think maybe even three different topics about adoption. 791 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,400 Whether it be adoptive parents with their in shocks episode, 792 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,600 or or Travis Miller's episode. 793 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:10,640 Yes. 794 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,280 And they were talking about a different, 795 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:14,240 you know, adoption. 796 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:18,960 And then I think we even might have had one other thing about adoption 797 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,080 on, on during that time too. 798 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,640 Oh yeah, Derek, our friend Derek. 799 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:25,280 Oh, yes. 800 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,600 Who was, who is an adult now, but was, 801 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:33,040 yeah, well, his family was kind of built around adoption. 802 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,400 So yeah, that was season, 803 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,960 it was episode 18 back in season three. 804 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,640 So yeah, you're, you know what? 805 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:39,440 That's right. 806 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,040 I remember you and I having the conversation of like, 807 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,920 are we going all in on this adoption thing? 808 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,360 Because we just had a number of people that had really great stories to tell, 809 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,840 but that was a common, that was a common theme. 810 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,040 And I really, really love that. 811 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:51,760 It's funny. 812 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:57,680 I, Darren and I just sat down next to each other at a band comp, 813 00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,440 band competition this week. 814 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,440 And yeah, he and I are going to, 815 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,040 he and I are going to reconnect. 816 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,040 So I'm very excited about that. 817

it's going to season four, I say, because I've, 835 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,480 all right, I'm just saying about season four, season four. 836 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:09,680 This was the theme. 837 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:15,680 We had three, three episodes, like relatively early in the season, 838 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:21,600 three episodes with, with couples on, on now, now in all fairness. 839 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,400 So first we had, let me see here. 840 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,280 This has been back in April of 2022. 841 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:31,600 We had April and John Heflick on talking about self-care for families. 842 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,120 Then, and technically, technically speaking, the second one was, 843 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:39,360 I'm remembering this now, the couple was in the recording studio together, 844 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:47,680 though one of, one of the, the couple remain, remain the silent partner mostly in the, 845 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,920 during the time. 846 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,720 But was there a vermal support had had the headphones on was there. 847 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:53,200 It was great. 848 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:53,680 Yeah. 849 00:32:53,680 --> 00:33:00,160 But we talked with our friend, Megan, about the book on this Enneagram handbook that she, 850 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,960 that she wrote as her senior project. 851 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:03,680 That was super great. 852 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:10,000 Before we move on, I believe that your son, Aaron, actually has your phone because you 853 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,680 commented his favorite episode is Aaron's episode. 854 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,720 So I'm assuming that that's actually Aaron with your phone, 855 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:18,640 not actually you commenting on that. 856 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:19,520 Bold move. 857 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:19,680 Yeah. 858 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,520 I love, I love my, I realize on the way to studio night, I'll have my phone at the house and 859 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:25,840 clearly someone else has it. 860 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:33,440 So, but yeah, there was, I'm just, yeah, it was Megan and then, 861 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,560 let's see here. 862 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,520 And there was another, there was another one and I, 863 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,360 well, we, we had also Nate and Brittany Steiner on, 864 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:43,600 that's right. 865 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,120 The diners were after that parenting when you travel and that was a really interesting one 866 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:47,360 for me. 867 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:53,200 I really liked that one because it, I always wondered Nate, Nate is a pilot and he's gone 868 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:54,880 for big chunks of the time. 869 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:55,440 Yeah. 870 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,520 And so I always wondered how that is, how do, how they do parenting 871 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:00,640 because that's got to look different. 872 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:04,000 You know, for me, I like being home every night and when I travel for work, 873 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,760 that's hard on me. 874 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:06,800 It's hard on my wife. 875 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,240 It's hard on my family. 876 00:34:08,240 --> 00:34:11,920 And so I was really interested to hear what Nate had to say about, 877 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:16,240 about how they pair, Nate and Brittany together, how they, how they parent 878 00:34:16,240 --> 00:34:19,840 when he's gone for a couple of weeks at a time. 879 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,880 I just respected, I just respected the heck. 880 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:27,280 Out of, out of them, because it was a lesson in intentionality, right, Andy? 881 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,080 I mean, that's what, that's what was, and we talk a lot about that here. 882 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:35,520 And I just feel like I really suck at it a lot, a lot of the time. 883 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:40,800 And just to know that, yeah, there are people out there doing it, 884 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,480 just being very intentional about their relationship, recognizing that 885 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:50,320 when there are calendar constraints that they, that they have to take specific action to, 886 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:51,680 to pour into their relationship. 887 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,440 And so, Nate and Brittany, if either of you are listening, 888 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:56,640 we love you. 889 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:57,680 We're grateful for you. 890 00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:58,960 Thanks for a great episode. 891 00:34:58,960 --> 00:34:59,680 Yes. 892 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,600 Season four

00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:47,840 one of the things that it helped do is they not only, they not only 910 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,200 helped sponsor us financially, but we've also, 911 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:55,520 we're able to bring on lots of people, lots of Everince employees, 912 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,160 and talk about things like teaching your kids money, 913 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,200 and savings, and things like that. 914 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:06,560 So that's been another good, another good thing that I've really enjoyed from them 915 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:12,640 because we've been able to talk about topics related to finances and things. 916 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:13,280 So yes. 917 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:14,000 Yeah. 918 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,160 Also, also good things. 919 00:36:16,720 --> 00:36:17,040 Gosh. 920 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:24,000 And then I'm going through, I'm also just remembering the midst of this, Andy, 921 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:29,040 like we did, like these episodes even early on through the COVID years. 922 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:29,920 And oh, yes. 923 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:35,040 Period of time when we were doing these remotely apart from each other too. 924 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:36,000 And that was a, 925 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,760 That was an interesting, an interesting time. 926 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,840 Probably not our greatest quality of recordings. 927 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:42,720 I'm willing to bet. 928 00:36:42,720 --> 00:36:45,920 But nevertheless, we made it, we made it work. 929 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:47,840 We, we did make it, make it work. 930 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:52,560 Season, let's see here. 931 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,240 Season, I'm looking back now. 932 00:36:54,240 --> 00:36:58,160 Season four, a lot of good, a lot of good stuff. 933 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,320 Yeah. 934 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:04,000 I think, I mean, a couple, oh yes. 935 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,160 Season four also brought Colin Yoder. 936 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:06,160 Yeah. 937 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,400 Talking about funeral home directing. 938 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,840 And, and that was an interesting one for me, just because we were, 939 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,360 A look behind the curtain, if you will. 940 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:13,600 Yeah. 941 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:14,720 Yeah. 942 00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:15,520 It was interesting. 943 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:16,320 Yeah. 944 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:22,480 And then moving right along as we got into the season five, 945 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,680 we kicked season five off. 946 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,280 Gosh, only, only a little over a year ago. 947 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,600 I was just saying to you before the show, Andy, Justin and Trisha Davis, 948 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:38,480 the beginning of that, the story of a marriage separated and reunited. 949 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:44,400 We've, we've talked a lot about on the show about all kinds of dad related things. 950 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:50,080 But inevitably can't talk about a lot of dad stuff without talking about 951 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:54,960 relationships and the marriages that make, which is that thing happen. 952 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,160 Which is interesting because I mean, we are called dudes and dads, 953 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,440 but we do have a lot of non dudes and non dads. 954 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,640 We've had both of our wives on a couple times. 955 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:05,120 Yeah. 956 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,480 A couple of different episodes. 957 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:11,040 And, but yeah, that was the one with Justin and Trisha was really good because it was 958 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:16,000 interesting to hear her, hear how that worked for them and the reconciliation and just like 959 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,280 what God has done in their lives to, to bring them to the point where 960 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:23,600 they were reconciled from, from what had happened, from the choices that were made. 961 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:27,680 I was listening back through the episode and the thing that also stuck out to me 962 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:37,280 was identifying the red flags and relationships that are the frequent, like what kind of proceed. 963 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,640 Something really drastic happening in a relationship and, you know, 964 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:47,120 those are some, those are the things in this whole show that we are looking to give like 965 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:51,280 practical like, Hey, be on the lookout for these things in your relationships. 966 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:55,840 Be, be intentional about not putting yourself in these, in these positions. 967 00:38:55,840 --> 00:39:01,600 Because sometimes the best wisdom that can be offered is wisdom that comes from real life, 968 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:06,880 like obviously real life experience, but simple, just simple things to be aware of and routine 969 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:11,280 things to be asking yourself questions about. I really think that we got that from Justin and 970 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:16,480 Trisha. So Justin and Trisha, it's been, it's been a spell, but we hope you're well and thanks for 971 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,080 Thanks for joining us. Yeah, kicking off the, that season. 972 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:24,000 Now, I do want to say if we don't mention an episode that you were on, it does not mean that we, 973 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:28,400 we didn't enjoy your episode. We were just, there's so many, we couldn't talk about all of our 974 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:35,040 episodes that we did. We, you know, we do 19-ish episodes per season and so there is a lot to go. 975 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:39,520 So these are really just top level things that have, have, have meant a lot to us, 976 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:43,200 but that doesn't mean that if you were on, we didn't mention you that we, 977 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:44,880 that we didn't enjoy you being on. 978 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:49,200 Because to be clear, what we, the web said we didn't mention from July of last year, 979 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,280 Mayo Chup is life changing. I mean, 980 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,280 It was a life changing, but we didn't mention it. 981 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:57,120 It wouldn't catch up. What kind of, 982 00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:02,560 One of the other ones from season five that I really liked was, well, actually I should 983 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,320 take this back. One of the things that kind of surprised me about doing the shows, 984 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:10,480 this show in general, is the amount of people that we've had pitch things to us. 985 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:10,880 Oh yeah. 986 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,720 Like say things like, Hey, we've got this guest and this guest and this guest and some of them, 987 00:40:14,720 --> 00:40:16,960 I'm looking at them like there was one today that was really interesting. 988 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:23,920 The guy basically pitched me and everything that he topics had nothing to do with anything 989 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:24,880 we've ever talked about. 990 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:25,600 Got it. 991 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,240 But and not really pertaining to dudes or dads. 992 00:40:28,240 --> 00:40:30,560 And so you did the polite Andy Laman dudes and dads. 993 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:31,040 I didn't ignore him. 994 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:35,520 And I was going to say, you did the polite reply. 995 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,520 Thanks, but no thanks. 996 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:41,840 No, no, but one of the things that I have really enjoyed it, see the different things that have 997 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:47,200 been pitched to us, the topics that I wouldn't have even thought about that are different things. 998 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:53,520 And so one of those that were pitched to us is the documentary into the light about freedom 999 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,720 from bondage to pornography to freedom in Christ. 1000 00:40:56,720 --> 00:40:57,520 Yeah. 1001 00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,920 And with Jacob and Jacob came on. 1002 00:40:59,920 --> 00:41:02,720 Jacob was the producer, the videographer. 1003 00:41:02,720 --> 00:41:04,240 Like he was in charge of this video. 1004 00:41:04,240 --> 00:41:06,560 He made this video, this documentary. 1005 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:12,400 And and so graciously, you know, we were able to see the show and then we brought him on 1006 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:16,880 and we're able to talk to him about about why he made it and what, you know, and all of that 1007 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:18,560 and his heart behind and making that. 1008 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,960 And that was that that was that one stood out for me. 1009 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:21,920 Yeah, that was a great one. 1010 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:31,200 I think, again, anytime we're able to partner with another great cause and bring awareness 1011 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:35,520 and promote things that matter to us and to our families. 1012 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,640 That's another win of this of this show. 1013 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,160 So we're always we're always glad to have people on there like, hey, I'd like to talk 1014 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,640 about this thing so that more people can know about it. 1015 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:50,240 And if we're like, yes, we're we're pro that thing, whatever it might be. 1016 00:41:50,240 --> 00:41:52,480 It's a great opportunity. 1017 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:52,880 Yes. 1018 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:58,240 So Pat, you had commented and Pat says that we were just talking with about you guys last 1019 00:41:58,240 --> 00:42:02,480 Sunday with Martin Thomas and he commented about the good job that you did with his interview. 1020 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:08,000 So that was another good interview that we had to that's where we talked to Martin and Martin 1021 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:14,880 was I don't remember what season that was in, but Martin had been incarcerated and and was able to 1022 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:22,160 to out of that create a ministry for for men coming out of incarceration and kind of becoming 1023 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:28,400 helping them to be able to to fit back into society after they've been incarcerated. 1024 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:34,000 And so that was a really good episode also season three episode 15 actually, Andy and 1025 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:38,560 talking about the Nazareth manhouse, one amazing ministry down there in Indianapolis 1026 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:42,320 and then also up here in northern Indiana as well. 1027 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:49,520 Again, the people we get to talk to the stories, the life transformations 1028 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,840 guys, I hope I hope you know, like this stuff is for real. 1029 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:59,280 This these things happen and just to be able to be along for the ride is super great. 1030 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:00,880 So thanks for that comment, Pat. 1031 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:01,840 That's super encouraging. 1032 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:02,800 We're grateful for that. 1033 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,720 So Andy, here we are now. 1034 00:43:06,720 --> 00:43:10,080 Michael Lehmann overcoming his heart defect. 1035 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,560 That was a good one to oh solid way to go. 1036 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,840 My son, we had my son on talking about his heart defect just recently. 1037 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:16,080 Yeah. 1038 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:20,720 And yeah, but but like also like one of the early episodes, Andy, 1039 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:25,680 was us talking about Micah's heart issues before like just before he went in for surgery. 1040 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:26,320 Yes. 1041 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:26,400 Yes. 1042 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:32,320 And like that was and actually that's where I came up with one of our logos at is dirt. 1043 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:38,160 Like I was staying up late because he was in the hospital with him and was creating a logo. 1044 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:45,840 So oh my gosh, I mean the like we. 1045 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,240 Yeah, I guess I'm going to cry too. 1046 00:43:50,240 --> 00:43:57,840 The the thing that this thing is that I think that brings, you know, when we talk about that 1047 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:02,720 episode is that and I've heard I've heard this. 1048 00:44:02,720 --> 00:44:06,720 I actually just heard this, our friend, actually Jordan just mentioned this to me. 1049 00:44:06,720 --> 00:44:13,760 We're at an event, you know, people say they appreciate Andy like the relationship that 1050 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,200 you and I have and how we just are, you know, real with each other. 1051 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:17,840 We're friends. 1052 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,120 We have like a normal, it feels like you're kind of just sitting in the living room having 1053 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:22,880 conversation with us and that's always been the goal. 1054 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:24,640 That's what we always strive for. 1055 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:30,800 But a big part of it is like people that are listening to the show what you what I hope you hear 1056 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:37,360 is that, you know, my life and Andy's life and the life of our families 1057 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:41,760 are are deeply connected with each other. 1058 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:46,560 And, you know, we talk about that episode with Micah, you know, I will in an instant I will go. 1059 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:55,520 I will go to sitting with you guys in the in the pre-op room, you know, praying over him together 1060 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,560 before he went in for heart surgery. 1061 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:04,720 And, you know, so each of these episodes, like so many of them are connected to these other big 1062 00:45:04,720 --> 00:45:11,680 life events, things that we we got to do, we got to do together, even when it was scary or there was 1063 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:15,040 some level of uncertainty about it. 1064 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:16,800 I mean, yet we knew that he was in great care. 1065 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:20,640 He was in the best place to be for all of that down at Riley. 1066 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:25,040 But yeah, I think that's everything I love. 1067 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:30,320 I love that these episodes are just little, they're little time capsules for us that really 1068 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:36,560 take us back to some, I don't know, just some really like some big milestones in our in our 1069 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:42,240 relationship together and our journey together to be to be better dudes, to be better dads. 1070 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:47,040 So yes, that's a that's a great reminder. 1071 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:47,680 Thank you. 1072 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:48,800 Thanks, Micah. 1073 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:54,800 So this is way back at the beginning, but but on Instagram, Zach has said that Batman, 1074 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,320 Superman and Indiana Jones so far is his favorite. 1075 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,080 Nice. 1076 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:01,360 So that was an old one. 1077 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:03,120 That's an old that's an oldie talked about. 1078 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:08,080 We were talking about just like rugged the rugged individualist versus. 1079 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:13,040 Yeah, versus the fact that we actually do need community. 1080 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:13,680 We need people. 1081 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:19,040 I think that episode that was a precovid. 1082 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,440 I appreciate it was a precovid discussion. 1083 00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:22,000 Yeah. 1084 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:27,360 And so it was probably more true than we even realized it realized it was like that we do need 1085 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:32,560 people and got reminded of that in that season for sure. 1086 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,560 So yeah, thank you. 1087 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:35,040 Thank you. 1088 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:38,880 So here we are, Andy. 1089 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:43,200 In this season, season six. 1090 00:46:43,200

1097 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:08,000 We think about the show. 1098 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,000 We think about. 1099 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:16,240 We think about all of again, to me, it's the life that

So that'll be another great place to do it, 1132 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:35,120 to reach out and to yeah, just hopefully connect with other people. But before we go, we go and 1133 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:40,080 now it's time for the dudes and dads pop quiz. Oh yeah. Oh, you know, before the pop quiz though, 1134 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:42,400 Joel, something we forgot and haven't done for a while. 1135 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:52,000 So that was my daughter, had he way back when we first started this show. 1136 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:55,520 And we did a segment, we haven't done it for a while and we're not going to do it tonight, 1137 00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:59,120 but we might bring it back soon to it. But essentially what's brewing was we talked about 1138 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:02,720 coffee that we were drinking that night, but we also talked about like really what's brewing on in 1139 00:51:02,720 --> 00:51:08,000 our lives. And we've sort of given up late night coffee because we're getting old getting old, 1140 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:12,000 can't handle it, can't hack anymore. See, that just tells you how many years have passed on. 1141 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:18,160 Like we used to be able to do the coffee thing and now Andy's drinking water. I had a lovely water 1142 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:22,480 now, although I should say you are drinking in monster. I do have a caffeinated beverage here 1143 00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:28,800 right here because yeah, I don't know. I don't know how to drink anything else these days. It's 1144 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:33,840 zero sugar though. So we'll, we'll, I'll get a slight pass. All right. All right. So Joel, 1145 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:37,920 I'm going to ask you first and we won't do 15 questions because that's incredibly too long 1146 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:42,400 because we know better, we know better now. What was your first screen name? 1147 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:56,960 Oh, let's see. It was AOL messenger. That's not a screen name. 1148 00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:03,120 It was, well, no, like it was on AOL. That was like the hand, my handle. 1149 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:09,840 I got you. It was redeemed 321. I don't remember my first like screen name was, 1150 00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:13,920 but my first email address was like, it was eternal life, but it had like some of the 1151 00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:16,960 vowels missing and things. Oh, nice. So Christian, oh, you know what though, 1152 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:24,000 I'm saying that now, that sounds, no, I'm wrong about that. That was, that was post conversion 1153 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:32,000 when I got my life back on track. Before that, it was Mr. Magic 54 and yep, uh-huh. Yeah, 1154 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:36,560 if you could all see Andy's face, it's completely appropriate. What you need to know is that that 1155 00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:44,480 was a Mr. I just so embarrassed to say this. That was a, that was a wrapper that I was, 1156 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:57,200 that I was into. Wow. From gosh, what again, guys, junior high years. What was, oh, gosh, 1157 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:04,560 I'm going to forget. It was a, yeah, it was a wrap. It was a wrap label that was putting out 1158 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:09,120 wrap albums like every other week and was very, very popular at the time and I was caught up 1159 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:15,440 all into that. So then it went to the redeemed 321. After you were redeemed. After, after I, 1160 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:24,320 all right, what's your question for me? Andy, my question to you is if you were 1161 00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:31,760 to be able to relive any experience that you had within this last week, 1162 00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:35,360 what are you going to do? What's going to be the do over? 1163 00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:40,400 I would probably honestly, this is going to sound really, really bad, but 1164 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:49,600 so Eli had his championship basketball game. So it was like semi-finals Friday and then championship 1165 00:53:51,200 --> 00:54:01,040 Sunday, Saturday. Okay. They played a team. I was not happy with the way that I reacted to the 1166 00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:07,840 parents and fans of the other team. You got, you get, okay. I was, I was convicted later 1167 00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:12,560 that I, that I probably should have, and I probably should have just kept my mouth shut. 1168 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:17,120 Gotcha. And so I would read, I would read, let's be honest. I'm going to be honest. 1169 00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:25,920 We've all, we've all been there and hopefully I think you're fortunate enough as I am that 1170 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:31,520 nobody was recording, nobody was recording us because those are the worst videos ever. 1171 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:37,120 Parents getting into it at a youth sporting event. Right. Right. Yeah. Okay. Gotcha. 1172 00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:40,960 What's the favorite thing you bought this year? I know this year is not very far into it, 1173 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:43,520 but what's the very, your very favorite thing that you bought? 1174 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:54,160 I don't know. I just got the, I got the new iPhone and I'm feeling okay about that. 1175 00:54:54,160 --> 00:55:00,880 We'll say that. I don't, there's nothing. Nothing. Oh, actually no, I'm going to take that back. 1176 00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:09,600 I'm going to take that back. Andy, I, I procured for myself a nice, bright green 1177 00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:16,400 sports coat. Oh, I'm very excited about the reason is the organization I work for, 1178 00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:20,880 it matches exactly like their corporate, it's green and black is like their like 1179 00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:25,840 organization corporate color. So I'm going to be able to wear that to our end of year event, 1180 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:31,280 but also the national conference we're going to. And it, it's just, I've never been so excited about 1181 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:37,920 a green coat and all my life. Yep. I know. I'm just saying, I was just like, you're searching for, 1182 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,960 you're like, when you're searching for like, there's a million greens out there, right? And 1183 00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:46,160 you're like, or something, you know, you found the right one, you found the right one, you're like, 1184 00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:50,480 huh, I totally lucked out on this. So yeah, I'm going to say, I'm going to go with that. 1185 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:53,680 Cool. All right. One for me and I got one more for you. Okay. 1186 00:55:53,680 --> 00:56:06,240 My next question for you is, what is, we'll say this year so far, we'll just give you a few months. 1187 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:15,840 What has been your favorite dish that you have eaten as a family this year? 1188 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:25,760 Favorite dish that I've eaten as a family this year, green bean casserole. 1189 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:31,600 Oh, just green bean casserole. That's an old joke. Yeah. Green bean casserole makes it drowns. 1190 00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:39,040 You know, I, there was some, I don't know if it was my favorite, but one of the, 1191 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:41,360 one of the things that stick out to my mind and that actually happened recently is 1192 00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:48,000 the lasagna soup. Oh, it was like, yeah, noodles in it. But then you like put the mozzarella cheese 1193 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:51,120 on top and you're like trying to eat it, but there's more mozzarella cheese that just like 1194 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:56,480 stick to your, it's as delicious as it sounds. If you were into lasagna, I suppose, I, because 1195 00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:02,880 I've had lasagna soup before and you're remembering this now and it not good. No, it was fantastic. 1196 00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:07,440 I deeply enjoyed it. So I'm glad. All right. I'm so glad for you. Last question. And only, 1197 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,640 like, I wouldn't ask this, but we've asked this before to other people 1198 00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:15,680 and it gets me every time. So Joel, if there's a sandwich named after you, what would be on it? 1199 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:20,720 Okay. So here's, here's how we're going to do this. This is going to be, 1200 00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:29,440 I think it's going to be a pastrami sandwich. But we're going to do a sweet and sour mustard on 1201 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:36,800 this bad boy. Oh, yeah. I know. I know. Because I think you're sweet and sour. I think I'm sweet 1202 00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:43,360 and sour. I think I've got a little of a lot of, a lot of things going on. Pastrami sandwich, 1203 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:51,440 little sweet and sour. And we're going to throw in, we're going to throw in probably some, I don't 1204 00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:57,520 know, some onions onto that. We're going to throw, we want to make it savory. I want to make you 1205 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:04,720 savor the experience. Because hopefully that's how you feel about your experience with me. 1206 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:08,720 Now it's time for Dudes and Dads Pop Quiz. Wrong button.
