date night, let me just see your hand. Have you ever gone on a date? You ever had date night? Let me see

your hand. Come on loud and proud. Date night. I'm almost a decade into this game. So this last one, on Friday night, me and Julia had date night. Hall at you. Date night changes when you get older, okay? Even when we first had little kids, we used to put them to bed and go to go to date night at like 9 p.m. you know you're getting old when you leave for date night at 6 p.m.

6 p.m. We're out the door. So 6 p.m. We're out the door and we go to sushi. Why? Do I like sushi? No, I don't. But it's date night so Julia chooses. So we're going to a sushi place. I don't really like it, but it's all good. I'm trying to score points. You know what I'm saying. So, so we should choose the sushi restaurant.

We go to the sushi restaurant.

Now I'm a trained dog.

I'm trained, I'm trained husband.

I know what I'm saying. So, so we should choose the sushi restaurant. We go to the sushi

restaurant. Now I'm a trained dog. I'm trained. I'm trained husband. I know what to do when we get to date night. First thing I do when we get to date night, turn in my phone. Babe, here's my phone. Am I mentally just, you know, going through hardship the whole dinner? Yes, I am, but it's all right. It's date night.

So we're there.

We're having a good time.

Now, it's date night.

Train so i know

babe order whatever you want you just you just order i'm not i don't need to order anything is you

you're in charge tonight so my wife starts ordering you ever been with someone and they order

too much food and it's obvious like my wife starts or i start doing the calculations of the bill

i don't want to tell her that but i'm like this is going to be our life savings. So, so she orders way too much food, and we're sitting there for two hours, and we're enjoying the conversation because my phone's turned in. And we're talking, we're catching up, and we're just eating. They just keep bringing food. And you ever been there at dinner? This happens to all of us.

You ever be there in the middle of the meal? You're having dinner and you think to yourself,

this should be my quitting point right here. Like I should stop eating right here, but you and I both know

no one has self-control like this. So you just keep going. So I'm like four or five dishes past my

quitting point. They bring the bill. I give them our life savings and we walk out the door. Like I walk out, I'm in regret. I feel terrible about myself. Self-confidence levels just through down the drain. So we walk out and my wife's like, babe, you know, we should go down to salt and straw because salt and straw is right here.
