Oh, what's up everybody.

Oh, what's up, everybody.

Welcome to the hot seat.

I promise you, I promise you. I don't guarantee

much, but this is going to be the hardest that you're ever going to laugh in the year and some

change that you guys have known me. I am just thrilled to death to have the guest that I have today. It did not expect a

yes when I asked. And if you look at the title of the episode, the title of today's episode is,

hey, America, will the real dads please stand up?

And I have told you guys, since I first started here on Dear America with Graham, moving to Chad, and now in the hot seat, that we don't have a presidential problem.

We don't have a Democrat problem or a Republican problem. We have a presidential problem. We don't have a Democrat problem or a Republican problem. We have a parent problem in this country. All right, that's why kids are flipping off mirrors or cameras at Tesla. That's why kids are screaming and getting septum rings and coloring their hair purple and all this craziness that's going on in the

world today is because please will the real dads please stand up welcome to the hot seat ladies

and gentlemen if you have never seen uh me before my name is todd spears. Hot Seat Todd. You might have noticed me from

Dear America with Graham Allen or now Chad Prather while Graham is going and doing his stuff at

the DoD at the Pentagon. What you don't know is I am Rumbles only redneck. Chad calls me

America's favorite redneck, but, well, I have to take that back.

I'm not Rumbles only redneck anymore because, ladies and gentlemen, what you get from me and

what you enjoy out of me, my accent, the way I present myself, my views uh how i look at things and how i put things in crayon

come from two men that that that brought me up one is my grandfather who is no longer with us

and two is without further ado,

Mike Spears, my father.

Or, as we like to call Spotticus.

Yes, brother, I hear you.
