I'll have it. you're gonna have it all maybe okay um i have two things to talk about off the top do you want me to welcome us or do you want to do those first you're calling okay we're gonna i'm gonna welcome you welcome back to another episode of two parents in a podcast it's friday what's it it's friday we shake them up oh that was from high school football players used to do that yeah that at assembly for a football game i thought you were about to start singing rebecca black Wait, no, what's the song?

2:37It's Friday. Friday, Gotta Get Down on Friday. I'm not going to sing it. I know all the lyrics, though. The football players used to get in a huddle. They say, it's Friday. I have three things. You shake them up. It's Friday. Okay, what? I have three things. Go. You can choose. One, why I'm late. Two, dad injuries. And how embarrassing they are. three uh west update i saw the post i saw his post wait i didn't i choose that sorry we'll take the west update for 500 okay so what jumped out to you west did a big photo grid what jumped out to you about it okay so slide number three was uh you it's like is that something like you guys are screwed whenever i figure out how to articulate my thoughts and somebody commented Like you're not going to be able to articulate your thoughts until the cows come home or something or pigs fly.

3:32Okay. Oh, that was funny. He did bury Amanda in there around, you know, photo five. Yeah. And that was all. And Jesse's in the photos. Okay. That was what jumped out to me. Do you think he knew he was going to be in the photo grid? You know, I thought about this actually. I love the Nora Brains went to the same place. You know, I think Jesse is an honest guy. and I think Jesse was like, I'm actually hanging out with Wes and if Wes is going to post that, fine. So you think he knew? I don't think he knew. I don't think he cares either way. I think he's okay with it. I think Wes did it as, I think, I don't know.

4:12Wes is a bit old. That was the most loaded photo of it all. Well, the comments agreed. They were like, is this a soft launch that Jesse's back? I think it is. I think it is. and you know what where west isn't very smart is like not that he's not very smart okay because i do think we should maybe stop piling on the west and the man that thing here but now we can look at it from we can no longer be mad i think now we can look at it from uh we're analyzing it so i keep going well we can we can analyze it now i'm not that's always been our take is analyzing it because it's such a unique i think we're allowed to do that i don't think we need to be like no more west and a man like we got to move on okay because we're all adults here so let's so the so my one thing is i think jesse would do candid interviews or heck even turn his phone around and talk to the camera and just be like listen west is my friend do i support what they didn't know but like west is my friend and i'm choosing to like still be friends with them yeah i just think it's it's it's interesting to find out that way like the totally and and And yeah.

5:22But how else were you going to find out? So invested in their lives. How else were you going to find out, you know? I wonder if...

5:34I mean, if Jesse would have posted it. Is Jesse active on socials? Yeah, of course.

5:41Opportunity there? I don't know. Wasn't his move to do. I don't have a hard take. I just saw it this morning and... I'm fine with the way it went down. It made its way to Twitter. Of course it did. Yeah. No, I don't see a lot of this stuff on Twitter. I don't. That's just your feed. Oh, really? Yeah. Okay. I was like, ooh. I was doing a little Twitter desktop scroll this morning. Well, you also do a scroll. Your desktop is your social media right now. Yeah, but I didn't see it. I'm saying it wasn't last night. So why were you late? Tell the class. Some backyard updates. Oh, we know. We heard the jackhammer.

6:19it's yeah so we're getting rid of the concrete today so i did a little i actually filmed it for the audience okay just so everyone knows what so impervious cover is a very um it's a very big thing in residential austin real estate and it's how much of your property or your home needs to have grass on it so with adding that's the drilling yeah um just for me and rocky and tate this morning Oh, here's a great question for the audience. And I know you want to talk about your previous cover. And I do, too. I'm dying to. But what I'd like to discuss first is we live, we're city living, so we live very close to all of our neighbors.

7:00And we are jackhammering up a good amount of our yard today. Should I give the surrounding neighbors a cute little something with a tag that says, wow, that was louder than I thought? And like a little, like, cookie? Yeah, that's really nice. Okay. Absolutely. I was thinking about that today. Everyone should get a little, wow, that was louder than I thought. and that's what i'm going to put on it and then maybe some cookies great call okay great call um so everything's going great i just what i what my biggest takeaway from these from doing work on your house is how like when you get one thing wrong like if you move into a house and everything's already done the chance that something drives you nuts is a lot lower than if you're building it from scratch and they don't do it the optimal way correct and so my realization this morning was about our posts okay define posts okay so basically our fence we're gonna have an iron fence and we're gonna have brick posts throughout it they should get it from exactly and i like the way that they built the retaining wall the brick posts they don't where they're going they don't really make a lot of sense so what are we gonna do redo it so we're gonna have to redo the retaining walls great no problem yeah right but i need i need to sign off on this um and it just like it is it is decision overload on the housework which is like not what i expected like this is this is taking a lot of energy and it's fun energy but like it's it's a lot choosing different heights and i mean it's gonna be like should it be two there two stairs or three stairs i i don't know should the stairs go down the back or off the right and so you can just put your brain goes in a pretzel on every decision so you're bored okay moving on it's just it's gonna be awesome our back it's gonna be everything we're not gonna know what it's gonna be like to be able to open the front door and tate just run outside like it's all gonna be gated in i'm so excited yep as am i as am i um okay great then the other piece my neck is sore today why because i slept funny why'd you sleep funny i don't know but what i the realization i had between myself and my dad friends or my dad friends and i is no matter what injury you get as a dad it's embarrassing yeah there's no cool way to get injured anymore like oh your back's hurting why oh i tweaked it picking up my kids right oh okay like oh oh, your shoulder's hurting?

9:41Why, I've been carrying my child too much. Or, yeah, I was doing a workout class and I tweaked it during the workout class. Well, it's just a sign of aging. I'm trying for a high, it's like, yeah. It's just like old. Oh, you tweaked your neck? What happened? Oh, I slept funny. Like dork. It sounds like, right. Or even if you're doing something extreme, like you blew out your knee skiing. I don't know, I just, I find like all injuries now are. Silly. we had a friend who he slipped in the shower and he was like I slipped in the shower and we were just like oh dude it just sucks these days just sucks to be like a dad slipping in the shower he's like talking about slipping in the shower I'm like we're just we're here we reached a level of what is going on yeah I know the bodies aren't the same we can't carry we can't carry I feel like one consistent theme between me and the dad guys is like our shoulders are now always hurting from all the kid carrying and it's sweet on one end But on the other hand, it's like, come on, we should be able to carry our kids without our shoulders hurting.

10:42Tate was wearing her bucket hat again this morning because Maria, who we now call Mimi, by the way, gave her the option of going to Peace Park or the mall. And the mall they go to has a park. And Bubba was like, mall, mall, it was so cute. And she's like, do you want to wear your hat? And she was like, yeah. So she put her little hat on. And out they went. I almost want you to look at the nanette and see our interaction this morning what tell us about it She was full of energy this morning and I walk in there and I go good morning Tate and she goes good morning Oh It's a really fun age Such a fun age You say that every week You say that every week It's so true But I feel like the developmental ramp over the past two weeks So It's been noteworthy But do you know why it's been noteworthy and I've said this on the podcast before and I want to double down on it it now when we travel and you take kids out of their routine it's really good for them developmentally am i going to give you a massage just a little i'm giving him a little bit of a massage massage a little harder sorry please oh oh okay i just needed you to power through so we went to dc and when we came back there was a noticeable developmental leap and actually my friend nugget texted me this and she said okay i'm listening to the podcast i feel like Like Avery and Tate are doing a lot of the same things.

12:03Is Tate saying um? And she is saying um. And I noticed it because I started mimicking everything Tate was doing one day. Like she put her hand on her head. So I put my hand on my head. And she noticed I was playing copy. So then she put her hand on her knee. I put my hand on my knee. And then she goes um. Because she was thinking about where she wanted to put her hand next. So should we not say um? No. Because I know that. So I don't think I'm a big ummer. Do you think you're a big ummer? as considering we oh jules has given me a jules has given me a um head trick so you think you do say i'm a lot oh don't put that now now we put that into the ether i can never say it again because it'll drive the listener nuts i don't think either of us say i'm a lot have i told you guys about my speech class in college how you're not allowed to say um we had to do an um speech and every time you said um the whole class goes um back to you and i just said um every other word as a result of like thinking about it so much.

13:00How many good classes did you take in college? A lot. Really? I liked school. I took one good class in all of college. Public speaking? Negotiations. It was truly a fascinating class. You learned about the power of giving the first offer versus the other person giving the first offer. And it really opened my eyes in negotiations that you can't – around people's different priorities and identifying the priority of the person on the other end of the table because in many cases, you both can have a win-win. And what matters to you may not actually matter to them and vice versa. Love it. So in negotiations, you learned you give the first offer.

13:48so I I don't know if I want to say my negotiating tactic here because I use it and I'm not going to show my hand on this because I love it okay all right but I love it all that to say it was a good class great class my best class was at that I took was at um it was at the junior college because I needed to fill the credits I took it at OSU OKC and I had to go in person and it was public speaking and I remember you just stand up and you had to give your speeches and it was really hard and tough but like it was good and it made a big impression on me made your podcaster look at that look at that um the other thing oh um the other thing i think you both say um because p and i edit on a transcript and like um is in the transcript quite often okay so here is what we are going to do but hold on um just for tate it is not a bad thing it's not a habit it's developmental it's a phase very good to know we are going to pull the transcript from two episodes ago okay and we're gonna throw it into chat gpt and we're gonna say who said more ums well it's it's not smart enough to know the difference between the two speakers so oh okay maybe apparently only let's only do it if it would take it takes three seconds 30 seconds yeah a couple minutes if it takes under five minutes let's do it it's worth it p can do it and raise your hand at me okay so she's gonna do it right now okay great So we're going to get the info on that.

You guys subscribe to us. I'm subscribed to one podcast. All in. All in. We know this. The all in pod. All right. I want to talk to you. So this episode's got some really good stuff in it. Okay. But I want to explain to you one thing that I find fascinating. All right. Bear with me here because this is interesting. On the back of this developmental leap once we travel. Okay.

18:40So first thing we learned, I'm going to take you through this. Okay. And I'm going to do it in, I think, a very clear and concise way. Whoa, Ginny in Paris. There's a train. It's the train. Bubba does that too. She says choo-choo when she hears the train. Jenny's investigating. Hi, Jenny. That was the train. You know, I need to think of the right way to say this, but we do need to land the plane. Me? If you would say. Okay. Yeah. All right. So I posted. I'm going to start talking about something different. Okay. I posted two bathing suit options. One was pink. One was blue. Yes. And people in the comments will never pick the pink one.

19:12People in the comments are saying you should not put your kid in blue for the swimming pool. Makes a lot of sense. Because then, and this is a water safety thing, you guys. So I really do think you should pay attention to that part of it, which is don't put your kid in a blue bathing suit because you can't see them in the water as easily. Okay. So in pools, what are the two safest colors bathing suits to wear? Guess. Orange. Yes. Neon orange. Pink? And neon pink. Yes. Wow. Yeah. In lakes, lime green, yellow makes a lot of sense, and neon orange. Okay. Now on to swimming. On the back of that. babies who swim develop faster so they looked at infants and weekly water sessions versus infants not turns out the ones that were taking the swim lessons developed faster basically they had better coordination balance body control they walked faster okay how interesting is that well it's great to hear because i think we're going to do a prediction okay i think we will over the the seasonal supporting months be swimming five times a week.

20:17But here's the other thing. So we did, we call them La-Di-Dah swim lessons. Like learn to book. Those count. Just getting them in the pool in general counts. Of course. Of course. I do want her to learn how to swim very soon. Yeah. We were thinking about doing that. We always tell you this. We're thinking about doing ISR. Our new updated plan on it is whenever Rocky can do it, which I know Rocky could technically do it right now. We're going to wait until the pool is ready. I got this lady who's apparently like. The lady. The lady. She's booked, so we need to get a hold of her. She's not ISR. It's kind of like a hybrid.

20:49A hybrid. I'm down for that. Yeah. Okay. So 90 % of your adult brain develops between zero to five. Following me? I thought it was zero to seven. Nope. It's zero to five. 90 % of your adult brain develops between zero to five. Okay. So the TLDR here, neurons that fire together wire together, which is also why they say surround yourself with people who light you up because that applies to adults too but basically repetition equals permanent wiring so what you do from zero to five you got a you're like a sponge from zero to five okay so let's say we do a lot of swimming and we do a lot of playing catch which we've been doing we do a lot of kicking the ball we do a lot of spanish speaking and english speaking all of that stays from zero to five and you create the neurons for that when you turn six and seven, the things you weren't practicing, they go away.

21:40Boom. They go away. They're just like, get them out, get them banned. So they don't stay. So it's very important what you do from zero to five. Now, this is the part that I find the most fascinating from zero to five. Your brain is in something called the theta state, which is the state that monks try to achieve whenever they're meditating. And it's literally where your brain is a sponge. So, so it's like very easy for you to hear a Spanish, like watch a Spanish speaking show and then boom, turn around and regurgitate it. Cause it's always like, why can my daughter learn Spanish faster than me?

22:11Like she, I had to label what paper towels were yesterday. You guys, it's a, see, I can't remember it. Savvy, Savvy. I'll remember in a sec. Servietta. Servietta. Yeah. And Bubber says servietta. She also says paper towel. She knows paper towel in both languages. I'm still trying to remember servietta right now so basically that may not even be the right word zero to five they're in there like a constant absorption state from six to seven they switch to the alpha waves which are relaxed still yeah okay but they're a little more intense then from that once you hit puberty from there you go into the beta waves which is like the adult analytical mode yeah and i know we're not allowed to talk about santa on here because we got in trouble again for talking about you know who I'm talking about?

22:58Yeah. Ho, ho, ho. Him. But that's why people, their little kids are able to - Jules realized how long it clocked for me to turn the letters into the thing without saying it out loud. The guy with the red. Yeah. Who delivers presents. Yeah. Him. It's why kids are able to believe in him and not analytically be like, that doesn't make sense. Because that's just an example. Okay? And they can learn languages effortlessly. Here's what really lands. here's why this really lands for me is it's a very very good reminder that as a parent we can't wait for our child to develop before we start making memories with them oh Harrison what a lovely take away it truly starts the day they are born and frankly I'd argue it starts the moment that your partner gets pregnant well I think that there's okay so tate is at this 22 month age right now where we're watching a lot of development happening but it is really important that we get there with her and we review triangles and we play catch and we go on walks and she gets to run and you do all of these things because she's she's just a sponge right now yeah and what's so like what dynamic is so unique to me is like being away from her for a night was a lot and i wouldn't have thought coming into parenting that would be the case like i would have thought coming into parenting like you know and i'm sure we'll get there at a point but we'd really like you know the like let's get away for for five days it's like being away for a night is is too much i don't want to miss a moment in in in this time so and then i really i don't know why I'm kind of hesitating why when I'm saying it like I don't being away from from her and him for one night is too much well she's in she's I mean her verse him right now is very different he's doing the same thing when you come back but if you miss a night you miss a day with her you come back and we've learned five new words and we're now playing catch and we now jump on the couch every night like it's just there's so much happening with her and it's really fun to witness so Jules had sent me this video it's actually really funny though like I was talking to

25:23I don't know if I want to put his name out there so we'll see a friend who's coming into town and he was like because we have a work thing going on and I was like are you coming in Monday night or Tuesday morning and I was like alright cool why because I don't want to be away from my little man for an extra night It's really, I get it. Yeah, he's like one night's enough. I really get it, but that's what's changed about even the way you travel. So Jules sent me this video, and it was a mom being like, normalize telling your kids what they're doing is not cool. Like, I don't want to watch you jump off.

26:00Not special. Not special. I don't want to watch you jump off the diving board again. It's not interesting. And I told Jules, I completely disagree with that video. Parents, normalize telling your kid that something that they're doing is boring and not worth witnessing. Elio just asked me to watch him jump down from a rock, not even an impressive rock, a small rock. And I looked at him and I said, no, why? I'm not sending another man into the world who thinks everything he does needs witnessing. I think this is very nuanced. I think this is very nuanced. Well, maybe her kid was older and she's watched him jump off the diving board a million times i don't know but for me when bubber is like what she's always like watch me kick the ball she doesn't say that but like kick and then like mama and she wants us to watch it is but i think to encourage growth they're gonna need to delineate between what is like a true everyday um action versus what is is something different and over time it it gradually scales and i don't want to say i disagree with that mom's video because like she's also like i like the first time bubber jumps off the the diving board it's going to be a massive massive moment because it shows her overcoming fear and doing something new etc etc but like yes eventually it's going to get to the point where like bubber that was once special oh no i don't agree actually we've now grown no i'll watch every time honey to the next phase of you of you learning and developing and maybe it'll be Are you diving off of the diving board?

27:35Oh, I will watch her every time. Every time. You know what? When I played volleyball in high school, I still used to look in the stands and see my parents making sure they were watching. I didn't want them to miss a play. And that was in high school. So I actually will plant my flag in the ground and say every time she does something, I'm going to think it's cool. Even if I've seen her do it a million times. I think that saying that in theory versus living in reality is you want your kid to grow and by saying that it doesn't encourage growth what think about her first step yeah like and how you celebrated the first step versus her walking now but if she wants me to watch her walking i'd love to watch her she was yes but we're we're not talking about watching and giving them attention which i think that was the video critical that's we're talking about telling them it's special no no that's not what i was told i was told telling your kid something special versus giving them attention.

28:32That's very different things. Well, the video itself, the lady or the kid was like, watch me jump off of this stoop, essentially, like a one-foot stoop. And I would watch them and I would explain to them. That it wasn't that cool? Why I would give them the context around it. Absolutely. You know what I learned from Alex? The power of commentating to your child. We narrate Tate's life 24-7. like we narrate we are narrate that for them we were getting ready yesterday and harrison put on jean shorts and she went into her room and brought us her jeans and she wanted to put on the jeans because he had on the jeans and the minute she put the jeans on she kept trying to lift them up to make her shorts because his were shorts but hers weren't you know obviously jeans and we were just narrating to her like yes dad has her short yours are not but we have a pair that are shorter do you want the no she wanted her she couldn't it was like the brain watching the short circuit occur from like she had the jeans on but when we brought her the jean shorts she couldn't swap the jeans for the jean shorts because like she already had the thing that that i had on it was like it was adorable but harrison was like wow we narrate to her 24 7 and we do we're just constantly talking to her like if you heard the three of us in the room you'd think harrison and i were having a conversation we weren't talking to each other at all we were just talking to her like we're playing catch right now as you saw yesterday i did and so we can't we narrate that and right now the that ability to make that simple catch is it is very special and cheerworthy and we and we tell her that accordingly versus when not like i don't know it's just this phase it is so dang cute um would you like to know how many times you say um yes while narrating yes podcast p said p didn't say P said estimate.

30:24I'm saying directionally. Harrison said how many times last episode? Oh, I'm going to say 19. 42. Lower. 28. Okay. As compared to Alex. Oh, no. Come on, Alex. Any guesses? 12. 32. 16. Yes! Okay, so can we do this? Because in this episode, we can't do it because we used it too much as a subject. Yeah. But next episode, let's have a encounter and then the loser needs to do something on the next episode. And the next episode, are we recording in Atlanta? No. We're not. I don't think so. We're recording when we get back? Aren't you coming back on Sunday? No. We're coming back on Monday. We just caught something.

31:22Well, I already had it caught. I thought we were recording it. We're going to a friend's birthday party in Atlanta for their kid. It's a one-year-old birthday party. So we'll record Sunday morning. Okay. We're going to figure out where we're recording, but the episode will obviously, it will come. There's the... You're losing. Wow. Tragic. Anyways, we're going to Atlanta. We're leaving tomorrow, Saturday. Flying with the kiddos. Going to a circus-themed birthday party. I actually can't wait. It'll be fun. I've never really been to Atlanta. Look, I've flown through there. I was there for the national championship in 2018, Alabama, Georgia.

32:04Who won? Alabama overtime. Roll Tide. Tua Taguay-Libella. Very hard last name to pronounce. Overtime touchdown to Devontae Smith. How about that? Good memory. So let's discuss this. We need to stop saying to moms that they have a good baby or a bad... What? You know, this is a very kid-heavy episode. Can we look at a non-kid subject now, maybe? Siete was bought by Pepsi. Did you know this? Siete chips, which I'm obsessed with. Yeah,$2 billion. So when were they bought? Oh, 18 months ago. Okay. And now the Siete founders were from here, Austin, right? I believe it's an Austin company. It's an Austin brand.

32:47so how old were they the business how yes i think maybe i would guess 10 to 12 years old it's so funny because i feel like siate came out of nowhere and what was their first was it the chip and then they started doing tortillas then beans i mean now they have salsa the whole thing so i have no idea what the first product was this is going to be a point for siate and pepsi all right So the headline was Pepsi Acquire Siete and Changes All the Ingredients. So you're like, oh my gosh, come on, because Siete was your healthy chip option. You could pronounce all the ingredients. All right. Well, let me explain to you.

33:27You didn't say what the headline was. Yeah, I did. Well, it's cut off. So it's actually, but Pepsi acquired Siete. She did say the headline. What was the headline? And they changed the ingredients. Siete was acquired by Pepsi and they changed the ingredients. Okay, sorry. All right. Ingredients that have changed. So the grain-free almond flour tortillas. The original ingredients. Almond flour, tapioca starch, water, sea salt, xanthan gum, which honestly is incredible that they were able to make a tortilla out of that. All right. Now the new ingredients. Well, I got to kind of call and push back on that.

34:02Okay. Push. Well, you can make a tortilla out of corn. Okay, great. All right. All right. Almond flour, tapioca starch, water. These are the new ingredients. Almond flour, tapioca starch, water, sea salt, Zantham gum, apple cider vinegar. I'm not mad about that. Berry extract to preserve freshness. Not mad about that. Oregano extract to preserve freshness. Not mad about that. And flaxseed extract to preserve. What a crazy headline. I thought I was going to be reading this and it was going to be a bunch of stuff I couldn't pronounce. Yeah, I think that, once again, it speaks to the power of reading beyond the headline.

34:41And I think on one end, you do see times where companies get acquired and you see a pretty big swap of ingredients. But I think that in this situation, what the Ciete brand stood for was so clear. and I'm sure that the founders did a really good job at fighting for and recognizing the importance of their clean ingredients and also recognizing when you get bought, minor tweaks are going to be made, but those tweaks can't affect the integrity of your products and it feels like this is a situation where that occurred. I agree. Let's talk about hers, you guys. If you've tried everything to lose weight and you still feel stuck, this summer can be different.
