I'm the cool dad. That's, that's my thing.

I know now what I can offer you that no one else can. Complete and undependent.

I'm a man. I'm sensitive. I need to feel loved. I need to be desired.

Yelling is the only part of being a father that I enjoy.

Welcome to dear old Dan's, the podcast that's pretty sure these topics are just a trap for me.

I'm Tom Curry. I'm joined as always. Sorry, shut up, Tom.

The podcast, that can, Eli can shove it.

That's the podcast that should never listen to Eli again and needs to not let Eli gaslight

itself.

This is applicable to everybody, not just me.

It might just be me, but it's an important lesson for all the Eli's in your life.

Don't listen to anything he says. What could you possibly be referring to, Thomas Smith? I was like, you got to pay this off, Big Dog. You got to pay this one off. Oh, boy. I just, you know, what is that class? Nope, not paying off. No, it will. Is it that then where the guy's like,

I don't even think about you.

And that's Eli to most non-psychopaths. Yeah. So like, Eli will just drop these bombshells on you, you know, and then he'll forget he even did it. You know, meanwhile, I'm just like, can I do a pull-up? Can I still do a could I? Surely, surely I could do one pull-up. But Eli's so sure. He's so certain. He's like, no, you can do zero pull-he. He knows somehow. He's reached in to my psyche and he knows like, yeah, no, I've gained a lot of weight. I could probably, and he tells me none. I'm sweating

it. This for days after this episode, I'm like, really? Could I do none? Could that be possible? And then I go to my sense memory of the like, what, you know, when you're thinking, like, can I do? And I haven't done one in so long. I'm like, I don't know. I guess I could believe that if I tried to do it, nothing would happen. I guess I could believe that. So the other day,

we're at Phoebe's soccer game. Real quick, Eli, is it? I could believe that if I tried to do it, nothing would happen. I guess I could believe that.

So the other day, we're at Phoebe's soccer game.

Real quick, Eli, is it weird for you to have so many addresses? Because you live rent-free in a lot of people's homes. I do. It's just like, it's got to be awkward for your mail at the very least, right? Just forwarding. Eli for sure had to be reminded what I was even talking about, like a day after this.

I'm positive.

Yeah.

Fully admitted. forwarding. Eli for sure had to be reminded what I was even talking about, like a day after this.

I'm positive.
