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

I know 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 Dads, the podcast that knows exactly where you are.

I'm Tom Curry. I'm joined as always by Thomas Smith and Eli Bosnick. Hello, gentlemen.

We weren't supposed to tell them about the geotracking that we have installed on all of their phones.

On everyone's... Take it again. Every listener gets a free Apple tag for a reason.

It's a free Apple tag. Dude, you know it was funny? I was in the plane the other day, and my iPhone, I think it was because we were taxiing for you know how normal flights now you taxi for three four hours just to start 11 minutes just a little bit of a warm up like the plane's like I gotta stretch my wheels you know like and just moseys for and it's always like just another minute we're just gotta fucking someone forgot forgot to put the wings on the plane. Looks like we're about fourth in the line here. Yeah, yeah. Fourth of the line, there's one, one every calendar year. So anytime. Anyway, my phone, I think because that happened for so long, my phone was like, hey, hold on, be cool. There's an Apple tag following you. Like, he gave me an alert. It was like, for real.

I suspect there's a lot of Apple tags on this airplane right now. How does this never happen to me before? But I guess it must be because of the insane taxing, you know, because I think we're in the air. Yeah, if you're moving, they assume someone's throat. because people like, and I don't know what a part of this is Facebook memes that represent Tom's psyche and what part of this is real.

But there is like memes that represent Tom's psyche and what part of this is real.

But there is like stuff that's people that are like, oh, they throw Apple tag into your trunk and then they follow you home and they kidnap you.

Well, that is why they had to put the feature in there that alerts you.

I would love someone to go through that effort, you know?

And they make a little snitch noise, too, now.

Right, yeah, because people were using them to stalk each other. And you can't even, like, break their legs either. It's like immediately, like, a pro-stalking technology. Yeah, I'm ahead of it, though. Max has a million Apple tags in various places on his body at all times. Yeah, sewn under his skin. I will walk up to him and they'll just all go off at once and he'll be like, what's that?

And I'll be like, nothing.

Don't worry about it.

Yeah, it's fine.

It's fine. times. Yeah, sewn under his skin. Sometimes I will walk up to him and they'll just all go off at once and he'll be like,

what's that?

And I'll be like, nothing.
