Gidai humans. Welcome to the safe space for dangerous ideas. This is an end of 2025, beginning of

26. Retrospective on some of our highlights and low lights of the year with the one and only

Evan Pavanka. You know him, you love him. Community manager of uncomfortable conversations

works tirelessly around the clock.

And the work mostly entails taking kids to little league.

Yeah, swim season now, actually.

Swim season?

Isn't it cold?

Isn't it cold as?

They're winter swimmers indoor swim meets. Don't get your kids into swim,

whatever you do. It's a meat. You're talking to an Australian. We are getting our kids into

swimming. And today is about 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Oh, well then, yeah, I mean, swim for fun,

but don't competitively swim. That not? The meats are a grind.

They're like six hours.

And then you watch your kids swim for 45 seconds and then you wait.

It's just a fiasco.

Swim parents are way too passionate about it.

And it's not my favorite.

But I love my kids more than anything,

and I will do whatever they're into, you know.

I like that you felt the need to add that caveat

in case they ever listen to this in 20 years' time.
