Dale Jr. and Amy share a lighthearted conversation about their quirky habits and relationship dynamics, including playful annoyances like the phrase "I'm just saying." They discuss communication nuances, venting, and how they handle each other's reactions. The episode also features a fun drink segment with a unique cherry Secura breeze cocktail and a visit to their favorite Irish pub, Dunleavy's, on Sullivan's Island. Amy's new hobby of checking for gum under tables adds a humorous touch, making the episode a mix of personal stories, humor, and casual lifestyle talk.
On this episode of Bless Your ‘Hardt, Dale and Amy dive into the little things in life that somehow turn into big debates. From the phrase “I’m just saying” and whether it softens a comment or just makes it more annoying, to the Drink of the Week presented by High Rock Vodka, sparking a discussion about lychee and herbs in drinks. Amy also recaps a trip to the beach house that turned into a series of funny parenting moments and restaurant adventures with the girls (be for real… who is still putting gum under the table?!).
Later, Dale admits he’s been completely consumed by organizing his old trading cards from the late ’80s and early ’90s, proving once again how quickly a hobby can turn into an all-out project. The conversation bounces from kids discovering video games and birthday party chaos to the many spellings of common names and a surprisingly serious debate about how to spell “I’m’ll”… or is it “imol”? A poll may be needed to settle this one.

The following is a production of Dirty Mo Media.
Oh, yeah, this is what it's going to be, girl.
If we're going to hang out, open a bunch of jars,
you've got big, strong hands.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
Are you suffering from high cramps?
I'm working.
Working that mouth.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
Hi guys, Dale Jr. and I are in the Dirty Mo Media Studio
as friends of around the flesh of your heart.
And we have a good show for you guys today.
We are going to talk about all of our silly life things, you know?
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
It's like, I'm just saying.
What's I'm just saying?
I don't know, like, why does anyone say that?
Do I say that?
Sometimes.
I'm just saying.
Some people say I'm just saying for, like, they'll bait you with some bullshit.
And then they'll say, I'm just saying.
I'm like, why are you just saying?
What are we just saying this for?
Yeah.
What's your point?
So you both do that.
I definitely do it.
You do?
Yeah.
That doesn't bother you at all when when anyone else does it?
Do you feel like it's like a period on your on your point or like what's the point in saying it?
I feel like it's a soften the blow. Oh, you do. So like if I say if I'm if I tell you if I state a fact
And I feel like that it has caught you or rubbed you the wrong way
Or maybe hit you a little bit harder than I expected I'll go I'm just saying yes, so like
I feel like if you it's like a dampening if you send me a blow and then you go
I'm just saying I'm like well, so you really didn't have a point in all this anyway
And now you've got me all pissed off and you're just saying it just to say it like what's the point?
I'm just curious. Yeah, I try to not say that because I know it gets under my skin
But you did that over the weekend. We were talking about something
unimportant
And you're like I'm just saying I'm like
I'm just saying oh man it got crowned your gears. Yeah, damn
I hate giving him ammo for grinding my gears
They'll be filed back
Like I'm not smart enough to know how to like turn that into
I'm not smart enough
Give me an example of how I'm gonna turn that around and use that in my advantage
No
But there's gonna be a time when like you're gonna want to take me off when you're in like a playful mood
Want to mess around and that's another thing kind of
That is another thing I would do that like it's okay to admit it. That is another thing when
Amy says when you want to take me off. Yeah, there is never
Never a time
In the day where I'm wanting to take you off
I feel like
There's absolutely times that you are willing to take me off just to get my attention
With a soft blow and I was just saying not at all and that's a good way to do it
The only time that I'm ever trying to piss you off
Is when
Is is a reaction to me getting mad like so you'll
So everybody's gotta be mad at the same time
That's I'm I'm I'm being vulnerable admitting this
I never
I
Never have a light bulb moment go
You know what I'm gonna I'm gonna do I'm gonna I'm gonna do this and my objective is to piss her off
Never I don't think it's a planned event. I think it's just who you are
But I'm not getting the attention I want there'll be things she says and I'll go
And I'll and it'll be like uh, you'll say
You'll say well, I didn't you'll say something like well
Well, I didn't like that and I'll go. Well, what do you think I felt, you know, or what well, I didn't like it either, you know
You'll you're you were saying the other day. There's always a tip for tat. Yeah, exactly. That's when I got, you know, that's when I'm
more than likely gonna I'm like gonna minimize or
You know, that's the only time and I don't know I'm not actually trying to piss you off
But it does but it does every time
but I'm like
So I remember that like like we're having a conversation the other day and you were you said something and I thought to myself
Well, I have to put up with that too or yeah, well, I have to deal with that as well
I was complaining about the kids
But I absorbed it and instead of saying it because it wasn't going to do nothing but make you go
You're not hearing me
You know, I'm gonna help my it wasn't gonna help things
But yeah, you stole the moment instead of yeah
Yes, sometimes they girls either they want when they vent
They either want to just have you listen or they want you to offer an opinion
Is they usually don't want you to try to steal the moment and put it on like well, I have to deal with it too
I know that's it
So we've been through enough therapy where we know that we're supposed to preface that and that is just so hard
Sometimes especially if you've been together this long if somebody if you had to do that with every conversation
That would be if your wife or husband maddening comes if your wife or husband is saying
They're busy or complaining about how busy they are or whatever
It isn't a good idea to go. Well, let me tell you how busy I've been
Let me tell you how bad my day was. Well, wait, I got more. I got I'm busy too. I got as much busy as you have
Yeah, then nobody's seen and nobody's heard. Everybody's pissed off. Yeah
but
That is when the I'm just saying comes
Because you'll say
Well, I'm busy too and then immediately I'll go
Damn, that was the wrong thing to say and then y'all say I'm just saying like I'm just saying that
I'm busy as a whale, right and you're trying to I'm just saying is like a dampen. Yeah. Well, the whole I feel like it's a
It's like a slap
Does that make sense kind of dang
What's drinking on what's the drink of the week? Well, um, I'll read it for us
Our drink of the week provided by high rock vodka is called the cherry
Secura breeze. What do you think? I mean, it's not bad
So in a shaker you muddle leechy and mint at high rock lime juice cherry juice and shake well and strain your eyes
So it's pretty simple, but I don't think I've ever had leechy before. Have you yeah?
I think this has got a little too much leechy
Is it leechy for you? Heavy on the leech
Heavy on the gross
It looks delicious though. You forgot the what you taste one other ingredient though. I did what I there's a glare
Sorry, top it with red bull spring addition. Yeah, so dales doesn't have a garnish
But mine has a little mint on the top so you can garnish it with mint if you like it
It's got a funny taste
That drink might be my favorite drink that it's delicious. Yeah
So there's something in the there's something
That when you drink it it gets up in your nose. I don't like it gets in your nose. Did you just put your nose in the cup?
No, I don't I mean I drink it like a normal person
Okay, well visit high rock vodka.com to see where you can find
Do you not breathe then when you drink a drink do you not inhale through your nose while you're doing it?
I don't think so. I feel like I hold my breath. Take a drink
Do you not go?
Mm-hmm
To the post sniff
Every time I take a drink that makes a lot of sense. No wonder you're burping so much
You're breathing and drinking at the same time. There you go. That's what it is. We just just figured it out
My burp all the time
So it's I don't have mint, but I feel like I've got like mint in my nose because there is mint muddled
Oh, there's mint in every don't like they tricked him. I do not like he's not a fan of any herb
I don't like herbs. See what's funny is I don't like mint usually either. I don't like herb
I tried it and I couldn't taste the mint
I don't like herb. Okay. It's not very minty to me either. Who's pushing herb on me?
All kinds of herbs. I just feel a lot of pressure
I feel like if you had some more herbs, you might be a little more calm
I feel like you're the pickiest drinker I've met Dale. I might need to stuff some herbs in his pillowcase
Yeah, maybe needs to smoke some herbs
Relax it. We just need to start basking him with the herb. I don't like it. I don't like it
Yeah, he thinks cilantro tastes like so. Cilantro is awful. It's my favorite. He's not wrong there. I love it. So bad
Why would you add that to anything? God? It's terrible. It tastes like honey. I don't care
All the cilantro face face books. They can come after me
Cilantro are there Facebook pages dedicated to cilantro? More than likely. Oh my gosh
All right. Well, if you want to try some high rock visit highrock vodka.com

You want to talk about red bull the spring edition sugar-free
You're secure. Oh, so this is what's in the cocktail
So you can you can get that sugar-free or regular
That's yummy. It tastes like a jolly rancher. I just wish it was this in the vodka. That'd be it. All right. So, um
We're we're at done levees. We went to the beach house to check on the beach house and make sure everything is
Good to go and one of our favorite places to check out on
Sullivan's island in south carolina incredible place
Is done levees. Yeah
We go there all the time don't leave ease don't leave ease. I don't know what's right. I don't either but it's an Irish pub
And um, it's usually our first stop we get the golf cart and it's the first place we go
It's a really great place. I love it because it
It checks a bunch of boxes. It's it works with the kids
It works if I got a buddy and I just want to have beer or if you and I want to go hang out
Um, it reminds me a lot of old key west bars
We used to hang out in so I get a little bit of that that I'm that I love
Yeah, there's garb everywhere to look at. Yeah, but they don't rush you no and but if you the food is really good
They have wings. Um, they got a really good ruben
but uh
There was some what was the gums?
Yeah, so Nicole's new fun thing to do is to check out the underside of the table is for gum
She's been doing this for a little while, but it's it's ramped up
So right at Dunleavy's
And she's just feeling out underneath
So the other thing that happens at Dunleavy's is Dunleavy's and Levy's the pub the pub is really what we call it
There's these big booths. So they're wooden booths and usually two people are on
Yeah, casually two people are on one side and two people are on the other
But halfway through the meal. Usually the girls want to switch. I want to sit next to daddy now
I want to sit next to mom. So they crawl under the table
Because it's usually faster for them and then you know, they get to check out the underside of the table
And the coals get she gets underneath there and she just hangs out a little too long where I realize
Either her shoe fell off, which is also disgusting or
She's messing with some gum underneath the table. So I'm like get out of there
She's like gosh, there's so many bubble gums underneath here and there's so many drawings
Yeah, apparently somebody took a marker to the underside of the table because your kids are allowed to just hang out
play, you know
She has never actually put one in her mouth, but she has pulled some off before
But I just want to know who's still doing that
Like who's still putting gum because it's fresh enough where it's soft enough that she can pull it off
Who's still doing that putting bubble gum under the table?
It's like my mom rant. That's not a mom rant though. That's disgusting. That's
Like I don't want my knee to touch that either when I'm crossing my legs, you know
Also, like sometimes you like you're kind of shimming under like across the booth and you're putting your hands under the table
And you're in touch it like yes
That's a major ick. That's just like a respect thing
Yeah, there's paper towels right there on the table. There are there's there's no excuse. There's absolutely no excuse
Um, we went to the mexican food restaurant down the street to the next day and there was more gum underneath that one
And that was a bar height table. So she just had to walk right underneath that one to check it out
She did that before she crawled up into the booth. She's like mom. This one's got it too
Oh my god, it's a plague, but nicole get up in your seat. Oh, no
Yeah, so, um, did you ever do that in school? I did not I wasn't I didn't I didn't you
I didn't like uh, I chewed plenty of gum, but I don't remember I didn't stick it under the I swallowed plenty of it
I wasn't I swallowed a lot of gum to you. I hate to admit that were you allowed to have gum in school
Did you ever I guess we were because there was gum stuck underneath it or maybe you weren't and that's why I got stuck
I don't remember
Parents told you about swallowing gum how you're gonna blow bubbles out your ass or is gonna
My parents never told me that
Is gonna clog up your if my parents told me it was gonna make me blow bubbles out of my butt
I would have been far more inclined to swallow it
They did say it was gonna stay in your belly like
Oh my gosh
My goodness you better like it, you know
And I say I got a conference call after this
Do you is it with red bull because it should be
It's with uh, panini card company. Oh really? Oh my god
Man alive. I predicted correctly travis
We we had we had this talk this dude. I saw that y'all talked about it already saw go light
But we got home from the beach on sunday at two o'clock. I haven't seen him since I haven't seen his essence
He has been upstairs in the library
cataloging
scanning
pricing
It's like he's not even existing in our lives this week. So yeah, yeah, well
Last night he had him all over the kitchen counter and I looked at I was like, are you gonna are you about done?
Yeah
He goes what I was like
Are you about done with that?
It's the only thing you've done all week. Yeah, I was so annoyed
Yeah, I got um
I got excited about the cards
Collecting cards. I used to collect them when I was little and I have about uh, I have a bunch of cards
Uh that I've just stored away. I haven't looked at them in 30 years
And I didn't think they were worth crap, but there's a bunch
of like cow ripkins and
uh king raffy juniors and and
Frank thomas and bow jacksons and there's I'm like
I don't remember having all of this, but
I'm going through there. I'm like damn. This is a $50 card. This is a hundred dollar card. This is a $200 card
This is a I thought for sure. He had bought all of these boxes
There are so many more boxes and he claimed that he had collected to begin with like you really didn't remember
Apparently, I didn't even know that I thought you just bought all the I had
So I had two closets full and I only thought I had one little closet
And I found some more because I was missing some and I was like, I know I got some stuff
I got I had I had stuff down
Stairs that I had stored away
but
So I'm learning like
These things have been I opened the packs in night. I collected from 88 to 91
I opened all the packs the day I bought them and put them away and haven't touched them
And they're these cards are in perfect condition. Yeah, and so they're all worth
They're all worth
thousands of dollars and so in total right and so I bet you there's yeah, there's
Some good cards. So so you haven't been upstairs ripping packs as you're saying you're not buying going through my old stuff
You haven't bought any new ones a little but not not much. I bought two boxes and that's it
But and they're I mean
Those is about a hundred cards. Well the way you've been talking to about ripping packs
I thought if he had bought all these and he's sitting up there doing this by himself. How sad is that?
We've reached a new level. Yeah, if you're gonna be ripping packs. Let me know I'll come over see
If I that's what I was thinking too like there needs to aren't you supposed to do this with someone else?
Yeah, I don't want to give it away
Till I get buy in from panini
But I'm gonna present panini with an idea today about a very very limited edition card
It's truly a homerun. It is absolutely a homerun. No pun intended like actually honestly when he told me
Grants like I legitimately. I'm like, okay. This is something you should pursue. So I'm I'm this is
Are you gonna share it right now? Well, no, so I'm I never get to know
Well, I'll tell you after I don't want to tell it because if it don't happen
Oh, but we'll see this is if you really want it to happen. This is how you play this
Oh, but I think it's best to have a
Conference I hear you. I'm just a conference call. So
This is this is my
This is a flaw massive flaw in me. Okay
I
Am I have a very um addictive personality
And when I like something
I
I do I want to do it every minute of that day
And so as soon as I like get to doing something or starting to mess in with something collecting or and I
If it's collect if it involves
collecting if it involves
Organizing or itemizing
I like the for some reason I get the dopamine from from like organizing things and putting things in order
Yep, and so um
So like collecting the cards
Or just going through my cards
Um, I'll open up on my ipad
There's a website and it'll say here the top 20 cards the most valuable ones out of this year
Set and so I'll go okay. There's the 20 cards. Let's go through
There's one
There's one there's one and then when I'm done I put them all in this nice little plastic sleeve
So they're better protected so they'll last another 30 years
And then you kind of rank do you file them in the ranking? I put them in a nice metal box
And so what do you do with the rest of them? They go back in the car
They'll go back in the little white sleeves and go put them back in the closet
Because they're worth a quarter of a piece
and so
I get addicted to that and I want to do that
Like it drives dry it's driving like it's at the forefront of my brain
Even when there's other things I need to be doing that. I know I've got to do
That's like oh, okay. I'll do that
But I'll get back to cards and I'll do that and I'll get back to cards and I'll do that and get back to cards
And so I'll I'll manic. Yeah, I'll go through this whole huge arc of obsession over something
And it crescendos into a final project and I think that's what this card idea is
so I went in just a couple of days from
Like man, I want to kind of get back into collecting. Yeah, okay. I remember what that was like. That was fun
I'm good
To
I want to make a card. You know, I've I bring those card sleeves home and I sign them from panini, right?
Yeah, I lay them out on table or sign them and I've done that for years and never thought nothing about them
This is you know, never looked at them and went what's the difference between this card and this one
This one's blue. This one's green. This one's red, but it's all you know
I've never really tried to
It's all sitting right there in front of me, but I don't really it's never just
Maybe light bulb go off. Yeah. Well in the just simple couple of days. I've been messing with this
I came up with the idea to actually create what I believe will be the most salt after card in racing
Ever. He's okay. He's not wrong. I believe you if especially of Travis is behind it like I feel
While you wait to hear while yes, it has been
It has been annoying that I've been a long week. Yeah, I've been a single mom and yeah
It's been annoying because I've been sitting in the library all day
You've got too many spaces to hide too, by the way
It's gonna come it's gonna if this plan works
It's gonna be worth it. I can't wait. Can't wait to hear what it is
You and your plans. Yeah, and I'm yeah
But it gets all kinds of things started like I was I called steve mires today
We're working on the next console game for nascar. Yeah, and I called him today
And I was like, man, there's gotta be a way where we can
Where panini or the card company and the console maker iRacing there could be a
Way for the two to play together in the in the game to produce
An opportunity for a specific card for the user advice, you know something there's gotta be
It just makes things
You know
All that connecting people, huh? Yeah. Yeah, so stuff comes out of this
I know i'm just sitting up there looking at cards and you can justify anything
Well, I'm excited to see what the card is. He's just saying he's just saying
That's it. I'm just saying dampening it's the dampener
Like don't build me up to dampen me down. I just don't understand it

So we have a best friend
named Sean
And we have another friend
Y'all remember my old buddy Sean Brawley
We have another friend
That is named Sean as well
All right, and so
We've been talking to both. We've been talking to both for the past couple of weeks
And it has me wondering
Could the shawns all get together and just decide on one spelling
Because we have Sean sha w n and then Sean s e a n I really think the s e a n's just go to the
shawn
I totally disagree. I feel like seen
s e a n is like
I told him he's like why i'm like what s e a n's more sophisticated
Also, you can't get mad at the shawns. It was their mom's fault to begin with
but like
Sean Sean s e a n's from canada. So his spelling is probably
Different for that reason. There's a can't so you think I would look at that and say Sean
There's the canada shawm. I look at s h a w n from north carolina, and I don't say shawn. I'm like shawn
That's shawn
Oh, his nickname is shawney. You know what I mean? Yeah. Well, yeah, so I feel like there's so many
Named spellings that are different like he even said the amys. He's like the am I ease of you. We don't like that
That was yeah, they gotta go. He went real hard trying to sell me
I don't I don't piss them off. I don't want the
I ease from facebook to come after me
But uh, what about the jeff's the g e o f f
Hey, so I think g o f f jeff. Yeah, I think it's the German spelling
I think it would be hilarious if all the shawms met in a big shawne expo and decided
That they're all gonna adopt the same. We need a gavel. We need a ticker. We need the whole thing
From this day forward, we have decided that we're all spelling our names the same
And amy's like, well, you know the shawm s e a n that's like the more sophisticated shawn and I was like
Oh, man, we talk about the dumbest
And I was like, I was like, oh man, don't you don't tell me you like when somebody has a has a regular name
And then you make somebody who has like the extra extra spelling on the you know, they twist the spelling a little bit
Like their mom and dad were like, yeah, I'm gonna do that but make it cuter. Yeah
Greg with two g's at the end. What are we doing? What are we doing? Yeah, you're just asking we're just asking
For the teacher to misspell it
Assholes we were sitting there having lunch being assholes. Yeah, but our kids get it. God. It was a funny conversation
It was funny because it came with a sound effect
Yeah
I'm thinking about all the names now. John. Can we make a decision there? Yeah. What's that? John
Yeah, like John
Should be j o h n
But then you have the j o ends out there
Yeah, so wandering around which one needs to go thinking there's something special like i'm john, but i'm different
I think i'm john better the hans need to go
The h it's biblical. You can't screw with it. John is yeah, that's true. Yeah
Yeah, it's funny. He brought up the juff thing. My dad's name is juff, but he's j e f f. Okay, so he can
Yes, what's the how do you else?
Which is like the general spelling. Yes, they gotta get they gotta get the fuck out of here
Perfect analogy because I always was like, yeah, that make that's why jeff bowdine's the way he is because he's the g
Yeah, he's got a o f f like the whole you know
Oh my god
Like who spells jeff like that right g off. No wonder the guy drives the way he drives
I want to get out of here right now. I want to slither out of my chair and turn to the floor
Going to be our uh djd classic next week
I really like him. I'm just kidding jeff. The bowdines and urn hearts have always had
a fun
Little rivalry and this just must continue
Well, it's gonna he's not right. I felt that way in the 80s. I'm like he spells his name weird and he drives weird
Well, kelly always presented that she had us
With an e in the back of her name. She said she never got out of keychain every time she went to like a carnival
Or a theme park or whatever they had those jumpshorts. She's like I always peruse the keychains
And they never had ornaments or keychains or anything with her name on it. She was always annoyed by that
Imagine being a dale. Ain't no damn dale keychains out there
I could barely try to travel us. They probably weren't any Ralph's
I didn't want to be Ralph like Ralph was like you were opening yourself up for all kind of all kinds of ridicule
If your friends found out your first name was Ralph. Yeah, I hear you
Do you want to know what did that all through high school? Do you want to know what my dad wanted to name me?
What?
Bernie Bernie after Bernie kozar. No, I like that
And luckily my mom thought it
They thought I was going to be a boy and my name was travis
They had picked out travis for me. It's a great name. And now here I am being a namey Bernie
And that'd be a tough one. That's a great
Like I would have understood why I got bullied if my name was no if my name was Bernie
I would have understood like people bullying me like I would have bullied myself. Yeah, Bernie like
Who wants that name? Yeah, it's cute when you're a little bit. There's a phase in the middle
Yeah from like 10 to 55 funny names like that Ralph and Bernie
I don't know. I would have if dad hadn't been who he was
Dale would have been a pretty underwhelming name
To have to go through life with did you get called junior in school all the time? No
It was always dale junior dale junior probably
But dale was very unspectacular
They're not many great dales out there
And you know for weren't for dad, you know, it'd be pretty underwhelming. Did you ever get called dj?
You know what a dale is with the farmer in the dale
To body of water and it's something some kind of a valley or something
Even anything cool like a pond or a pond. Okay. It's still very underwhelming
It's a creek. What did you just ask for the intimidator who made it cool?
the same
I don't really have a never a bottle for that
You know some else stupid Nicole did this last week. Oh, of course
So the reason we went down besides just checking on the house was our neighbors were having a birthday party for their six-year-old
So there were like 30 little girls in their backyard
And they had a little spa party and it was very fun
And Ila decided she wanted to go home about halfway through because she was the oldest kid there
And she was like it is I've never seen her act like that and at first I was really disappointed
I'm like, why do you want to leave that's so rude. I'm like, we haven't done cake or whatever yet
And she's like, I don't know anybody but there's no any there's not any other girls my age
She's like, can you just walk me back across the street? Hey, so I did. Oh wait, what? Yeah, so
Amy texts me. She says I don't want to come home. I was like, why she's like she doesn't not having fun
They're all kid younger kids here. So you
We met in the street and I walk her back to the house and we're walking back into the house
We're going up the stairs and I was like
So you wanted to come home, you know, and she's like, yeah
I was the oldest one there was no one wanted to play with me and she started to cry
She was about no way she was hurt. She was sad
Yeah, and I was like, honey, it's all right. It's you know, well as the oldest one there
You can't be sad that the little ones are not coming up to you
I she started saying it and I looked on her face and I saw that look on her face like she was
Pucker and I was like, honey, you're growing up. You're getting older. That's gonna happen
That's gonna be the way things are. That's not a bad thing
You know, it was quick. She was quickly out of it, but she wasn't
I thought for sure besides just she wasn't like the oldest one knows in the air this party
Well, I thought she I thought she just wanted to come back and play on her switch
She's like dad's upstairs watching the race
That means I play on my video games if I really want to go home
Then I want to go hang out with my dad because I get to play with my video game. What's hey
Yeah, so she's reading the room pretty well. Yeah is what I'm supposed to say
I like the switch. She plays princess peach. Yeah, she plays games
It's it's not as bad as I've had she can't like she Nicole has a it's contained. They had the old switch
They don't even got the new one yet, but I Nicole has
So Ila plays princess peach and just plays a crap out of this thing, right?
And I love it because it reminds me of when I was a little kid. I had my original nintendo and
I was just running through this game. She Nicole
I give her a switch and she gets this. I want the same game. Okay. Same game
Here dad
do it
She just and she flings it over like this too. I'm like, no, don't drop that thing
I'm like, no, I'm not doing it. You it's a game. You play you figure it out. I can't do it
I can't figure it out. All right. I run through the first phase. She's watching. I'm like, oh, you see what we're doing here
You hopping you jumping you doing this determine. Okay now
There's too many buttons for one two minutes goes by here. It comes back dad do it
Get me through this part and I'm like, no, like you've got to this is the fun part of the game
It's like trying to learn and figure it out. But like she's just too young
I know. I guess she's too young
We got Ila switch when she was five two and we ended up putting it away because she was just too young
She did the same thing. She would want you to help her play the whole game. We're like, no, no
I don't want to do this
I know a lot of people are sitting here going video games really
Yeah, you know, we're gonna be a video. We're gonna be gamers a little bit
I can't wait till we let them play video games a little bit
But then we kick them outside. Yeah, it's very it's balanced. It surely is found. It's a good balance
Anybody that says like, oh, I don't want my kids on a device like
There's you're lying. You've got and we grew up playing like we would spend hours in front of the tv playing in
The nintendo on a saturday. I mean hours. Oh, yeah, trying to master those games, you know, I
I think there's absolutely a good balance, but I remember
I'll never forget this when I wanted to buy a computer
I was I think I was 15. I didn't have credit yet and kelly had to kelly put it on her credit and
It's a $500 computer for best buy and she
Financed it for a hundred bucks a month and I was gonna pay her the hundred dollars or whatever
and
We're talking we're talking about this excited. I couldn't believe it. I was gonna get a computer
You know, no one had computers in their houses in 1994, you know, and so
I don't know man. I must have been this must have been earlier now, but um
So it was early 90s box screen kind of thing is early 90s
But I was so excited and dad heard us talking about it
And he's like
And then I bought it and we got it and I'm over there messing with it
And I got racing billiards nascar challenge because I was playing billiards nascar challenge on a floppy disk in
Drafting class like I would stay after school and go back into drafting class and with a DOS floppy disk
Let you do that. Yeah, and I'd play and uh, mr. Nail was our drafting teacher
But um, cool last name for a draft. It is very on point, but um, he should have been the carpenter teacher, I guess, but um
Anyways, I was into and I'm like, I need this at home
You know, I don't want to stay after school and play for an hour until he run me off
so
Dad sees that I'm sitting over there doing this
And he says
You're wasting your time with them computers
And I'm like what
Like how could you not be like, you know, my son's on this box that I have no understanding of and he's like doing
But he was like you're wasting your time with them computers
That's a waste of time and I'm like man
I would tell if he was sitting right here. He's laughing out. I'd be like
How about what did you look at me now dad, you didn't know
You would not tell him that but that's a good night. Yeah, and so when we when I so I like to see Isla
You know, we have iPads and they play their iPads and they have games and and we absolutely I am a
I am I am a absolute observer. I have all the settings and I've got the apps to follow everything they're doing
Like they are not doing anything on there that I don't know about and it's always in our presence, but I like it because
Everything they're going to do the rest of their life is going to be on a screen on a tablet automatically
It's going to be yeah, it doesn't take them two seconds to learn it
I just like to switch over the iPad because those games in particular
They are challenging and they're frustrating and you have to keep trying so like it's teaching them some type of
Problem-solving coping and coping mechanism with getting frustrated and having to work through it versus the iPad
It's like go to the next app or whatever or they will come to you
Want you to buy tokens or buy something for them to just advance and we're like that is the one that is not happening
Yeah, that is one pain. Yes, because it
I will buy them video games all day long. I don't have a problem like you want a new game
No problem. You want a new game? You I mean, I don't I don't that's not
a problem the freaking apps
They'll you know, I'll get them. We'll get them this like spelling app or accounting app or it's a school app
You know and there's or there
Nicole's got an app where she loves to do this
Or she's just matching flipping things over matching them, right? What do you call that?
I don't know puzzles. It's like a puzzle. Yeah, and so she playing that thing
She wants me to play with her and all that stuff, but it shows them ads
And they're like I want that I want that I want that yeah between every level they do
They've got to watch this ads for other games. No, they bring the thing over. Can we
I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Have you tried a scam?
Have you tried putting on airplane mode?
They are on airplane. Okay, because a lot of a lot of apps when you're playing games
Put on airplane mode. You don't get the ads. Really? Yeah
Interesting. Well, so they don't have service if they're on airplane
We have to have them to the wi-fi anyway. So I think they're not online
Yeah, they're not like connected to the internet or anything. They don't have a phone number
Yeah, but it's just uh
Yeah, the iPads are tough because they
They're always bringing it over. They're always selling you something. Yeah. So can we get this?
Can we get that? I think that part of the reason she wanted to leave the party that day was just to play her game, but
Back to the Nicole thing. So we stay there's a whole another hour for the party back to the original story
Back to the original story. We're at the birthday party and there's a bunch of little girls running around
Nicole's have the time of her life. They have a fashion show
So they're like walking down this runway in these little princess dresses
And so having the time of her life
Cake time's happening. I can tell Nicole's getting a little tired
And the cake is being sliced all the girls like slamming around each other getting real close
And so I pick Nicole up just so that she's not gonna get pummeled because some of the other girls are a little taller than her
And she's like mom. I want some cake and it's like I know I just I'll get the cake for you
I don't want you to get stuffed on so I grab a cake. I squat down
She doesn't like icing so I'm trying to scrape the icing off with the spoon
She also has her hand on the spoon. She's not letting go. I'm like
I'm just going to scrape this icing off and and move it over here
So you can eat the cake and she just looks straight at me and she goes. I'm going to punch you in the nose
It was so shocking
That I like didn't really know if I heard her right, but I just like
Let me have the cake and I picked up the cake and I went and threw it away
And she and I I wish could buy it out of the back side of the house
I was like you aren't getting any cake and then she could just cried wailing crying the whole way home all the way across the street
I was like
Dale you're never gonna believe what this kid just said to me and I didn't even know what to do
I ended up putting her in her bed me and I busted out laughing which I don't think was the right reaction
I texted him because I knew he was gonna do that you came into the
You came on right, but she was already in time out like I'd already put her in the bed
And I was like don't you come out of here until I come and find you and so she took a nap
But um, yeah devil dale, of course laughs at all of those things and it was pretty funny
But I just it had no context. We weren't fighting over anything. I was helping her eat something
I didn't really feel like she needed to begin with
And then you know her we're in the house, but yesterday and she said or two days ago and she said I'm
She said something. She said something else. Yeah, and you were like, where did you hear that?
Yeah, she said there was a show she was watching that she learned it from
Yeah, and I was like, is that also where you learned I'm going to punch you in the nose and she goes
It was wreck it Ralph
Yeah, she said she was going to slam somebody or kick you in the face
Punch your nose face or something. Yeah, wreck it Ralph. Yeah
Well, I asked her about the nose thing. She said she made that one up on our own
But wreck it Ralph planted the seed for one
I guess one of the phrases and then she just decided she was just going to roll with that
but
And this
Yesterday
Or two days ago. I can't the last couple days have been a blur with the card
Stuff I've been doing
You didn't have to add that
Bless your heart Ralph. I'm just saying so
Yes, a couple days ago me and Isla are horse playing
And Isla likes to try to like swing and gymnastics kick me in the butt like that's her thing
Yeah, and she says I'm going to kick you in the ass
That's what she said
So I wasn't in the room, but I heard she said a cuss word and nobody would repeat it
So I didn't know what she said
She said
Oh my god, not Isla too
We're doing something wrong Dale. I was learning this for the first time and I said Isla I go
Isla, do you know that's a bad word? She goes. Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I said, uh, she goes on it just came out. It just came out. I said, where'd you hear that? She goes from you
And I was like, yep valid
Oh man, no wonder nobody would tell me what was that and I told her I don't think we were
You didn't seem like you wanted to know you were kind of like I well because you seem like you had it handled
And I didn't want to make it a bigger deal
But I asked her later what it was she said and she's like nothing. Don't worry about it
I was like Isla that's one of the words you can't say again until you're older
So just go to put it away. So she's like, all right
But what are you gonna do?
Well, Nicole same day ask
April
Before they were getting ready for ballet. She goes, can I say what the hell?
Yes. Yeah, what happened? What was going on in the living room that day? I don't know
We're in trouble. Yeah, not nearly as bad
But I asked my friend
His three-year-old I said Jackson, you're gonna be good tonight and he goes. Do you want a beer?
Really and then walks out and goes like
And he served you one. Yeah, that's pretty cool. Yeah, you can get him out of the fridge. That's pretty nice
I feel like so when we when me and Amy decided we're gonna have kids and we you know
Went through probably the first three or four years super strict
With ourselves about our language. Yes, and I feel like in the past real work. It did. I think in the past two years
I don't know about Amy, but I've I've gotten tired gotten loose about it. You know, and there'll be
I'm
Like I'm in a conversation with somebody on the phone
In the truck and and and they might say something
Accidentally not knowing I'm on the phone. You know not knowing his whole family's in the car or I'll say something
accidentally on and I'll hang the phone up and I'll say
Isla did you hear a bad word?
And she might say no
I'm like, all right
Because there was a bad word in a song the other day that me and Amy were listening to and I said hey
Isla did you hear a bad word? She goes no
It's a Taylor Swift song. She likes to listen to on her own
She sings along but she doesn't know there's a bad word in there
But sometimes I ask her I say and she'll say yes
Yes, I heard a bad word. I'm like, okay
Well, you know, you ain't supposed to you know, I just we just have a little conversation. I don't know if it
I don't know if it's really worth it. She needs to know that it's bad at least
And if she wants to get herself in trouble by using it then that's her choice
But I feel like they innately know bad words are bad words. I always felt like I did too
Yeah, like I would hear a bad word a cuss word when I was a kid
And I didn't know immediately that that was a cuss word and I was never saying it
You know what I mean? It was like
Like that sounds too sharp. That sounds like it's rough. Like what are you like the f word?
That was like
Super taboo. We don't say that right when I was a kid kid. I remember so I don't remember my dad cussing too much
He said quite a bit or damn
We heard f all the time from dad and his friends. Really? Yes, like rusty wallace says the f word every three words
That's how you used to be. Yes
Dad used to say what the buck
Son of a buck that's why I used to say son of a buck. Well, but nobody says son of a
I know it was for son of a
Oh, oh, but he didn't say any of that stuff around the son of a book and he would say it was such a
I don't say the I don't say the b word because I feel like
You're in a house of you better not be bad for you. Yeah
I wouldn't even say it
Not referencing a woman. It doesn't matter. All of us would go excuse me. That's a b. I don't even say it like in general
Yeah, because it's I feel like women would women when a woman hears it. Do they go?
What what does it hits you wrong even when it's used out of context?
Like something being like damn that was a
Is it if you and I are talking up to each other? No, but um, what's the equivalent the male equivalent to the b word to the b word?
No, man, my granny's gonna kill my
Oh
You women don't use it. We do it when we're talking about you behind your back really
Or when I'm like in the pantry just going oh
She's just saying in the pantry wherever I'm hiding you ever
Yes, I do. Yes. I do of course. I do of course. I do and of course you do
Oh, I mean, I ain't gonna lie through my teeth and say no, of course. I do
It's better than doing it to your face
You and I would be like, oh really? Yeah, and there would be like the clash of the titans just one up in each other

You have had some fun with a ring camera at the beach house lately
What
Is that memory filed away too? Yeah, what I do
You you were telling us the other day how the technology with the ring cameras has gotten so
Detailed to like not only does it alert you that there's someone around but it goes into very very good description
What they're doing where they are what they might even be wearing. Well, wait, this is the thing
so okay, I remember now so I
and
Sorry don't be coming after his facebook ring camera people
um
That don't like ring cameras and ring we're kind of intrigued by this so people are
People are like, oh man, you know, you better turn all these settings off. They're doing stuff
um
I don't care
Hell with it. I look for the setting. I couldn't find it. Um
I um
I'm just messing a person is walking on the paved area with the leaf blower. Yeah, so so I get the ring camera
and we have them at this at the at our vacation house and
You know, I'm I'm they're cool. I'm liking them
You know, the only thing the only bad problem is is minor minor wireless and so I got to keep the batteries charging them
But you know, so for not there we can't peek in. Yeah, you can't well if you let them die
But they usually don't they last quite a while
All right for a year
If it saw a person it would just say
Person, you know, it or see I saw a person it would just say basically
I have person walking camera to camera to
You know person walking
car
You know, it was very basic and vague
Then the other day
it said
Guy in red shirt walking by with a leaf blower and I was like
What for the f**k is this like this alert?
So descriptive it looked like a personal text message came through. I was like, what the hell ring camera
I started like looking and then it started and so the the
Landscapers were at my property and so for the next 30 minutes. I got all kinds of very descriptive
Uh, thanks for my ring camera. I'm like, what the f**k update comes like they've updated the software
And which I'm thankful. It's like
I've got this
Man walking near the edge of the pool. They made this camera. Yeah, man walking on the edge of the pool
You know on the south side of the pool, you know by the umbrella. I don't know. You know, it was just
Very descriptive. Yeah, it's nice to have when you're not there too
It is nice to have. I just thought it was hilarious. They didn't tell me. Hey, man, just be be on the lookout
Your uh descriptions are going to get more, you know descriptive descriptive
Little heads up would have been good, but I feel like it was more fun the way it was
It was surprising. Yeah, it was how detailed that they're they're getting
So that's what people are saying too with the updates. I guess is
You know the ai that's in the program. Yeah, there were some it's really analytically
Looking at all the things
About a you know, there's some setting that helps them find lost dogs, but
Help some find lost dogs. Yeah, that's what they advertise
But then people realize that like it's being supposedly dogs code for something else
No, no, no, like they're cerebral commercial is like
Oh
Ring cameras will help you find your lost dogs and then people realize that like supposedly the ring cameras
Are the other companies are
How they're using the cameras to store footage or something like that. I don't that's crazy people learned
Well, if you're able to go that far back, how are how are they?
I guess what they're wondering or genuine concern is
They're taking all of the footage that I have access to and they're compiling it stockpiles somewhere on a server
Yeah, you know, that's a little scary, but I mean my ring cameras are pointed out in the world
I'm not watching that's not true. The one I was pointing at the pool. So like there is no skinny dipping or anything like that
Well, sometimes we can't come back from the beach and they're all sandy and there's a
Happening there that nobody needs to not see I mean nothing going on that we wouldn't go like I don't get
Well now I won't be doing that. That's for sure. All right. Well, I can take that one down
But I could take it down. Most of them are just pointed out at the world
So if somebody does something silly out out in the front of my house, then that's all them
But yeah
We were entertained. I thought it was hilarious. I was like, damn that was very descriptive
Thank you green camera speaking of descriptive. We have a we have a visitor. I think we have a debate to settle. Sorry
Does the visitor know about this? It's an I'm all debate
All right, do you know about this? I do know about this
So we have a t-shirt with shop.dirtymomedia.com
And it's a it's a quote of Dale's he has made up this word
Or he says a word constantly
I'm all run to the race shop. I'm all get myself something to eat. I'm all so I have always teased him that like that's not actually a word
It's almost like three words compiled into one
And so he and I have like I knew where we'll text each other about
I'm all
And I just write out i m o l well the t-shirt that Dalton has created for us says I
Apostrophe m apostrophe l l that's right. There's two apostrophes and what is here. It's it is a made-up word
Yes, so we have to have
A debate and we're gonna do a poll
For what we feel like the proper spelling of this word. What's the poll choices?
It's gonna be my way in your way
Our two options two options
All right
So I'm gonna start us off. I think we can all agree that this word definitely starts with I'm the word. I'm right
I'm all right
And the word means
I'm going to yeah, right. I'm going to yes, okay
So we're all on the same page
Well, I'm going to means I will slide show. I did I've listened. I got I'm going to is equal to I will I will right
It's the same thing, right? Sure. I'm gonna take out the trash. I will take out the trash. Yeah, gotcha
No, because that's the tense is not always the same. Yeah, there's there's some past
And you know all that's kind of future. Yeah, there's some subjects and
I'm just saying words at this point
Um
All right, so I will we know turns into I'll
Right, okay, so then we have we're gonna replace. I'm going to with
I'm will
But that doesn't make any sense. I'm will I'm I'll
Well, you got two eyes. You can't have two eyes and saying there's only one eye. It's it's me. Yeah
I'm
Was this really your process? I think yes
In about this much time and then I was like, how did I come up with this?
And this is where I this is where I got to
You just wanted to have two apostrophes in one word. I wanted to create a new word that had never been created before. Yeah, so
He's here to so his so option a
Option a is is I'm I apostrophe m apostrophe ll. Yeah
I'm all
I mean, I'm I'm cool with creating the only word in the english history that has two apostrophes
Yeah, that's good. That's pretty cool. All right
okay, so my argument is
That it stands for I'm going to which is the same
But in
context of
The way that it sounds and for conciseness, especially texting it
We have always spelled it. I am ol I'm all because that's what it sounds like Dale saying. I'm all shorthand. I have asked Dale
Truly ask him when he says the word. I'm like, what is that actually? What do you think you're saying?
What does that mean? He goes I'm all I'm all I'm all I'm all I'm all I'm all I'm like, so I am going to
Yeah, he's like, I don't know. It's like a short short circuit. Yeah
Start this that's how we ended up with word. Yeah. So like I am ol. That's how we have always texted. I am ol
Yeah, it just looks like a
Like a government organization like, you know, that's designed to take out like yard pests like I'm all
like
Very boring company. Yeah. Well, I don't know. I mean, I'm pretty firm. I think it's
I post free in post free ll. Are we gonna put this up to the vote? I think it has to I think we have to put it to a vote
Yeah, um
What are we doing that today? Um, I think oh, yeah, we're gonna do it today. Elijah's gonna put it out there
Abigail's gonna put it now. Everybody don't vote for I am ol on just because me and Amy
We want genuine reaction to the word. Let's have a very balanced fair
voting
I appreciate the what you're doing
Especially especially for the effort with his slideshow and all of his all of his work. He's put into this
So there will be a t-shirt the t-shirt is already created that says I a foster e.m
A foster ll. Yeah, but we are wanting him to change it back. Dale. I think has the shirt
Oh, you do have the shirt
Hold the janky shirt up
This was the bad. This was the not so correct spelling. I almost drinks a bit. That looks great to me
Look at that. It does square up nicely. It is almost drinks. Imagine I am ol
But I am ol is the same amount of letters as beer
Isn't that the wizard from the smurfs redo the graphics just fine my argument to all of this
would be
If if me and Amy hadn't have had the conversation years ago about the spelling
I'd be on board with whatever
Whoever wanted to write it out. We two three years ago decided in our mind
I am ol. Yeah, okay. So I see. Yeah, I'm stealing a little bit of a memory from you
Amy picked up on the fact that I was doing it and then she decided how it would be spelled and I'm like
I did it to tease him. Right. Like, you know, it was always a poke
You know, what's funny is the more time I've spent around Dale
I I say you see it. Oh, you do. I say it all the time. Like I'll be like, yeah
I'm gonna go down to the store and whatever. I'm like, where did that like I I come?
Yeah, maybe you were saying you were saying it all along. So he didn't even realize he was saying it until I pointed it out
Maybe I just notice it more now. Yeah
Maybe a lot of people say it. It's crazy. Maybe this poll will go very
I think it's all right. My opinion is it should be a freaking word. My goal is to get it in the dictionary
I want to get it in like the webster's dictionary. That's my goal too. Let's do it. Oh my gosh
Who's going to share the glory in this? We will what if you win?
What if he wins and it's your word
That would suck. I know well
We'll let the people vote let the people vote. All right. This is fun. I'm gonna get out of here. All right. Let's do some ask
Amy. I'm we'll get

Hi guys, dale and i are in the dirty mo media studios for another round of bless your heart and we're excited for your questions today
What do you have travis?
So our first question comes from carl and she said that uh, my daughter wants to start wearing makeup
And i'm not sure how to handle this
Um, how much like when did you like start letting the girls put on a little makeup or whatever?
Oh man, how old's the daughter her daughter?
Seven seven so i mean we we gave ilah a makeup desk when she was what four
Three four they had i mean they were getting like a tiny kid's makeup
They were getting little fun toy kits from their grandparents and all this i mean a little tiny little kid
I mean so they've been playing in makeup. Yes, since they were tiny so
We we let her do it
I feel like a little too early, but she wasn't allowed to wear it out of the house
She just played in it
Yeah, and it was like blue and pink and tacky and full of glitter and
She didn't really know how to play with it either or put it on so she would dig holes in it and it'd be gone in a day
To be honest like it didn't last very long. It's super messy. It's all messy
Um, and we haven't done that with nicole yet because we saw yeah
We learned from our mistakes and so she doesn't have a makeup desk in her room, but she will get into my makeup
Um, but both of them are pretty good at putting it on like they can put mascara on without poking their eyeballs or anything like that
It would be my advice that if you're gonna do it
You try to help with how it can be organized
So like we uh
Like you know
Alligating that little desk and having a little it's a place where at all it's contained
Right because those little kits they're gonna get them for you know once you start letting them play
They're gonna want to ask for more and they're gonna get it from aunts and uncles and niece
You know nephews and friends and grandparents and they're gonna have all these funky little crappy kits
Everywhere crappy kids. Well, it's just gonna and if you have a space where you're like honey
This is your makeup stand. This is where your makeup goes. You keep it here
So your sister didn't get in it. So such and such and such and such and or an old school caboodle
I got her one of those two like I thought that would be a better
Thing that nicole could not get into so it looks like a little tackle box to be honest
And they're they're cute colors and so they have a mirror inside
So if you don't want to actually commit to a full makeup desk, that's a good idea too
Just the organization but I think let them play is fine. Yep. What age did you let them get their ears pierced?
What's what at what age did you let them get their ears pierced? Well?
So unpopular opinion is I did it already
Dale was not excited, but he knew it was happening. Um
Isla
Hold was Isla she was six
And nicole's four and nicole has not taken hers out
We have not changed them out and it's been fine. The experience was really nice
Isla however wanted to change hers out as soon as she could so it was like six weeks in
And it was a little tender and so we we got we got them out and putting them putting the new ones back in
Was absolute torture. Yeah
Um, she had these little loops in
And then you know she and her sister were playing with Barbies and she got Barbie whipped and it pulled one of them out
Which also hurt
So she was not going to let me put that back in her ear
So she now still has just one loop in her ear
She's had a hoop in one ear and the other one's grown back for over a year. It's she's like pirate
She's like a little pirate with one loop
In her right ear. Yeah
We can't I can't convince her to get that one re-pierced
Or change the other one out to something smaller. That's a little more subtle
So she's got a loop
I feel like is when they're younger it's better because then they don't mess with them
It's yeah, you see sometimes you'll see like a one-year-old with like little studs and you're just like
I feel like
I don't think it's a bad choice. No because they're not going to mess with mess with it
But their ears grow, you know, so like the only reason I would wait a little bit
Just because the hole might not be in the right place. But yeah, I don't know all girls really like that stuff
So I don't think it's a bad idea to do it. Yeah
So this next question is how many pillows is too many pillows on a bed?
Yeah, we don't agree on that one. I
Really like having decorative pillows and all the fluff and I want my bed to be made every morning
I want it to look pretty. Dale does not agree with that. He does not like having the bed made
So we just I gave up. I don't have any decorative pillows on our bed
At the house house, but I do at the beach house
We have
King pillows and I think each one of us have three
And one of them always gets kicked on the floor
So I don't know
Two two per person. I feel like you need an extra to hold on to or to like put your leg over or something
I like an unmade bed. I think it's way more comfortable
He likes because then you get in you just have to then pull the sheets off at the bottom to get it comfortable
Anyway, so it's like why make it when you're really gonna get in and just pull it
Pull it up. Just can we just pull the top up and just I don't mind like
Straightening the bed, but I hate like tucking in the sheets and all the stuff because I
My toe I get down in the bottom my toes are all bent now
I gotta kick the sheet out of the album under the mattress to get my that's tight to give me room
Yeah, I don't like that either. I don't want the sheet to be tight on my feet
Yeah, but I'm way shorter than you so my feet don't get to the bottom of the bed
Like at home
I just have a comforter on my bed really just sleep with just the comforter and like a fitted sheet
No top sheet. Amy what kind of blankets are these we have a lola blankets?
And if you have to live under a rock to not know what this is to be honest
Travis is like, I don't know under rock apparently
They are these softest most fluffy blankets and now like they started out with a throw blanket
And now they make king-size ones that cover your bed. And so that's dale's favorite thing
But it's really heavy and warm. I will it would if it's up to me
I would just jump on top of them
I would just cover throw that on top of the bed. I'd never even get under this blanket
Which he does that a lot and he comes into bed later than I do
So I'm underneath the feather blanket with the lola over on his side
And he'll come and lay on the top of the duvet and then cover up and so I can't move like I can't
I seal her in
I can't move my covers at all
I feel like we're gonna have to go Dutch style and like get our own like, you know how like
Have their own duvetes on each side of the king bed
We have our own and then nobody's
Fighting over the blanket. That would be smart
How many pillows do you sleep with like when you're actively sleeping? Are you
You're two. Yeah, what is it? I'm a one pillow guy. All right. Yeah
You're super simple. Just lay down head like I don't want like do you lay like this?
Uh, there are times where I'll sleep on my back. Yeah
Yeah, I do that every now and again. Yeah
Sleeps like that I start
On my right side arm under the top like on the right side arm under the pillow and then I have another pillow
Jackknife leg. Yeah, but also he sleeps diagonally across the bed. Yeah
I will start jackknife
But I'll wake up literally on my back with my hands like yeah
I mean I like he's laying in his coffin like I'm laying in the coffin
I usually fall asleep best if I'm on my left side
We know somebody I want to Amy's friends that sleeps bowled up like a frog like a frog
She still does it like fetal position
Kind of like a fetal position. Yeah, but like on her belly on her
Arms tucked in her knees up like she's a little frog
I would be so sore the next morning. She's not this person is like a
In their 40s. Yeah, she's my age young. Yeah, like in their 40s. Yeah, low for young 40s and in sleeps on her knees
Yeah
We had to sleep over because the girls are the same age. I don't know it was last spring. She's gonna kill us
It's all right. We're gonna say her name. She won't care. It's not she's it's kind of funny
But she still does it. I thought I'm gonna say so she and I slept together and in her bed
Her husband was away and I look over in the morning. I'm like there's this tiny little ball underneath the covers on her side
And they're like, yeah, she still sleeps like that. That's crazy
How is that comfortable? I don't know but she must sleep really well
She sleeps exactly how she was bowled up in her mother's belly. Exactly. Wow
I think that all of us fall asleep with our face smashed into the pillow the same way. It was comfortable in our room
That's
There's like one side that's more comfortable makes sense. Yeah, I I do have like I I do sleep better on my right side than my left
I'd rather sleep on my left because I'm facing you but I don't I don't not as comfortable
I don't know what it is. I'm not more comfortable on my right side. Yeah
Have you thought about what differences make have you guys thought about just switching sides?
Yeah, but Dale won't do it. He likes that side of the bed. That's not true
What is it about that side of the bed and I don't know you just decided that was your side of the bed
That's your side of the bed at the beach too. You have the same side
I think it's okay that we're not facing each other with our
Our nighttime breath just cacking on each other. I do believe that though
If you're if you're a couple and you sleep the same way in one bed
If you got a camper or if you got a vacation at home or whatever
If you go on vacation if you go to a hotel like you have to stay
If you're left you have a side of the bed
Makes sense. Yeah, because I feel like it throws everything off. I don't know
I don't think about it that much. Yeah
But so yeah, he does care about the side of the bed. Yeah
Like I'm just wanting to be the same as I am at home whether it's whatever
Whatever so our next question is what is your favorite checks mix piece?
Favorite checks mix. Yeah the Pete like the eye. Oh man the the right chip
Oh the actual piece. Yeah, yeah, let me let me read them for everybody listening
Uh, you got the corn checks, which is pretty good the squiggle the breadstick breadstick terrible
We check wheat checks me
Round pretzel
Right bagel chip garbage
Square pretzel. Yeah, I mean if old pretzels, I just get pretzels
The right chip
Is by far the best it is by heart. It isn't even close. It's so salty and they finally
After I don't know lots of complaints
2000 freaking years decided to put right chips in a bag by themselves
Yeah, so you can yeah, you can get your own bag. You don't you know what for go the rest of the stuff and get just right chips
Because you know when you open a bag everybody digs through and just gets the right chips out
Then you're left with all the other things, you know, which is super rude. So annoying
Well, I know but when you're doing it too, you're like, yeah, it's your you don't care about
What are those things when you're doing it? I do it. I do it as well. Like I
We talked about dopamine
A dopamine fix dopamine rushes and stuff and like itemize and organizing and what what what gives you like
Pleasure of like doing a total chore or task or hobby. Yeah
Well, like eating a bag of chicks
Opening that whole bag and seeing all it's in there and digging through to get just the rye
Is the opposite of dopamine
Because you're like
Damn it. I'm I'm on where are they are they only the one to own and I'm eventually gonna run out pretty quick
And have to eat the rest of this garbage. Do you know what I mean? It's a whole thing's just a frustration. Yeah
I do like the uh
The checks
What is that one part the first one the rice? Yeah, the right the corn checks the corn checks. I like those
They're not they're not bad. If once the rye chips are gone
I can I'm digging into those guys see then we could hang out because I'm not going for the rye chips
The bagel and the bagel and the breadstick. What do you what?
I would go
Pretzels then I would go bagel then breadsticks then the checks the bagel chip
Yeah, he said he doesn't go for the rye at all. So y'all would absolutely be
Like a perfect match sitting at the bar. Well now what I love is utz has a thing called pub mix
Yeah, the pub mix we have that at the house. They have it because they have like the seasoning on it
Yes, and then that's where it's really good
They have those little hot wasabi peas in there too. I don't think I've ever seen that one really
Those things are good, but they're hard. They are be careful. You gotta be careful with your teeth. Yeah
Well, yeah, that's the same thing with those right chips
But yeah, we had this discussion in the office. I feel like everyone yesterday was going with the rye
Yeah, they're so good and it's like picking the
the
The lucky charm marshmallow is out of the cereal too and they finally made bags of just the marshmallows
Not that those are good for you, but they're so fun. They need to come up with, you know, rye
Rye chip. What is the sandwich made on rye?
Um, a ruben. Yeah, why don't they come up with a ruben flavored rye chip?
That would be awesome a rubenship a rubenship a ruben rye chip with like a little meat flavor and a little
sauerkraut flavor sauerkraut. Oh, that'd be so good
If there's some sauerkraut seasoning. Yeah
Like ranchy sauerkraut probably
It's such an amazing idea. It's probably gonna happen, but it'll be a few years from now probably
How do we master the thousand island sauerkraut flavor?
I mean, it's amazing how these chip makers can find a flavor and put it in a chip. Yeah
I don't know. You know, I probably don't want to know how they're doing it
But some things are better left to be a mystery
Uh, this next one comes from tom if you could delete an app
Off your significant others phone. What would it be? Oh dal you go first if you could delete an app off of my phone
What would it be?
Oh
I mean the only one I see you owns instagram really
So you delete instagram probably
I don't want to
But I mean I I would delete it at certain moments
Like it'd be cool if it I do not want to delete instagram from her phone
For good
But there's some moments when I'm sitting there and I'm like
I want to delete the instagram when he wants me to pet his head or something and I'm just looking at my phone instead
No, no, no just when we're hanging out
We're say like if we go to eat lunch or dinner together or by ourselves
But it's like not like a nice dinner. You wouldn't ever lose your phone during dinner
But like if we're hanging out at lunch or something just but just us
And she'll be on her phone or something. I do I would want it. Yeah, you're usually on your phone too though
Usually it's I know this is kind of conversation is a tough old man. It's okay
But so he his all look like his is either reddit or x or something. It's always he's reading
Reading nonsense. It's not like he's looking at instagram. I wish you could delete x off my phone
Well, we've gone through periods of time where it was deleted off of your phone
And then it keeps popping back in there
Yeah, I get out of x and delete it off my phone for like a year at a time
And then I get back in there and I'm like, oh pretty fun. And then I'll delete it
Get rid of it for a while. Yeah, he gets tired of himself
I know, you know, it's not got his hooks in me. You know what I'm saying? So you do it just to make sure you don't say
No, I'm just saying
What's another quote that we don't like I'm just saying what what else you got
Oh, man, I don't know you don't know it's too hard to put you on the spot. We can think about it. It's hard to think of it when you're
I know it's hard the show will end and all of a sudden you're like, oh that one that one that one
That happens part of it. I hate that. Yeah
Do you have any more questions? Um, nope. That's it. Did well
Do you have an app?
That you went off dales? Yeah x it would be it would be x
Are you so yeah x I don't feel like he's on any other social platforms that often
Dale didn't you used to have like set limits for you on your phone?
No, I don't
I would ignore it. I was like, it's a waste of time
So I feel like it's the same that would be the same for me is like having
The ring or the the watch that like tracks your sleep and so there's depths and all that every girlfriend of mine has those things
I have them
I had I caved my sister the ring because that just didn't want to get in the garment watch
Oh, you are
And I have a whoop band which like I was gonna give you a shot calibrates
And I couldn't even wear it long enough to let it calibrate. I could you have to sleep in it?
I'm not sleeping my jewelry or anything. I've thought about trying whoop
It's a great
Band it really does a good job
But I just like I've got to the point where I'm like if I can't even let this thing calibrate
I don't need to know all the things it's gonna tell me anyway
One of the crew chiefs has one and was showing it to me and it's a little garment watch to 970
And I was gonna wear it just to see what it told me
And he's like man, it tells you all this this stuff is showing me everything
I feel like as neurotic as you are that's gonna be too much information
I know but it's like it's the it's the itemizing and the in the collecting of data and then I know what that you got to do
Something with it, but maybe if it tells him that he's not gonna enough sleep
He might go to bed earlier like I'm either gonna get him to do some things
I'm either gonna look at it and go that would be shocking
I'm either gonna look at it and go man. I'm challenged to try to improve these numbers
And I'll do some work on myself or I'm gonna look at and go. Yep. Didn't want to know that
And throw it away. I don't know. Yeah, I can't wait to see how that plays out
I I know that when I see a rule like that
For myself
I find that to be annoying even if I set it up for myself. Yeah, and so like jamie
She's you know, I just have a hard time wearing watch period like I had the apple watch for a while and I
I like it. I love the apple watch does a lot of the same things by the way
And I love the apple watch because you wouldn't you'd get a phone you get a text message or something you wouldn't have to
You know, you don't have to at least
You generally though had the phone really close to I know but more apple watch meant less phone
And I liked that. I was like giving I was like doing less with this giving your thumbs a break. Yeah
I don't know. We'll see but then I just putting it on and charging it
Updating it this and that no, it's like, yeah, really. What is this thing doing?
Well, they have fun little like charging stations now where it's real easy to just throw it over there when you're
Going to sleep, but you're supposed to sleep in some of those things like the oar ring
Jamie has one of those and it tells her like it's approaching your bedtime parameters
She has set up for herself
And I'm like if my ring kept telling me to go to bed I would get really annoyed by that
So I just don't feel like it's something I need in my life
All right. Well, I'm just you're I'm just interested in what the watch is going to tell me but I'm not sure
What I'm going to do with that information. Yeah, I don't know. I would like to see my sleep pattern
So like I know I wake up and I have yes, like I have not slept well at all this week
I wake up at 2 a.m. Just like looking at the ceiling. I want it to tell me you're not going to have a good day
You you're going to fall, you know
You're going to crash early because you didn't sleep such and such and such
I'm gonna be like all right. Watch this. Does it tell you that you didn't know I was gonna drink all this red bull, did you?
You don't know me
Watching me go watch
Yeah, that'd be smart to have it like for your spouse. So, you know, like, oh, they didn't sleep. Well, they're tired
I better be nice today because of x y and c. I'm gonna mind my p's and q's today. Yeah, maybe that's
Dale, you can get Amy's information sent to you. So, you know, okay
She's running low today. Let me be nice. That's a way better idea. I'll wear the whoop and he can have
information. Yeah
Careful careful around Amy careful handle with care
Avoid
She got an excellent night of sleep literate
And he would totally do that see just saying
